Execution by Lessee of the Technical Acceptance Certificate shall be conclusive evidence of the fact that the Aircraft (including all Parts thereof and the Aircraft Documentation) is in all respects satisfactory to Lessee, other than completion of (i) the acceptance flight in accordance with paragraph 1.4 ( Acceptance Flight ) of Part I ( Delivery Condition ) of Schedule 7 to occur on the ferry flight from the Delivery Inspection Location to the Delivery Location, and (ii) the walk around inspection in accordance with paragraph 1.5 ( Lease Acceptance ) of Part I (Delivery Condition) of Schedule 7, which shall be addressed in the Acceptance Certificate.

Delivery by the Lessee to the Lessor of the Acceptance Certificate will constitute conclusive proof as between the Lessor and the Lessee that the Lessee’s technical

  • 28 -

experts have had the opportunity to examine and investigate the Aircraft and any intellectual property rights associated with the Aircraft and that on the Delivery Date the Lessee considers:

  • (a) the Aircraft is satisfactory to Lessee and complies in all respects with the requirements of Part I ( Delivery Condition ) of Schedule 7;

  • (b) all actions required under Part I ( Delivery Condition ) of Schedule 7 have been performed in full to the complete satisfaction of Lessee; and

  • (b) the Lessee shall indemnify the Lessor immediately on demand for any amounts paid by the Lessor (including legal costs) in connection with that failure.

  • (a) any sums (whether in respect of interest, costs, fees, expenses or otherwise) then accrued under the Relevant Documents;

  • (c) any Loss incurred by the Lessor in unwinding any funding, financing, guarantee, deposit, swap, forward interest rate agreement or other financial instrument undertaken or entered into in connection with the leasing of the Aircraft to the Lessee.

24.5 Termination payments following Delivery

If, after Delivery, the Lessor terminates the leasing of the Aircraft pursuant to paragraph (e)(i) of Clause 18.3 ( Lessor’s insurance requirements ), paragraph (b)(ii) of Clause 22.1 ( Termination upon Illegality ) or paragraph (a)(ii) or (a)(iii) of Clause 24.2 ( Lessor’s rights ), the Lessee shall pay to the Lessor on the Expiry Date as liquidated damages or, as the case may be, a debt, the amount (the “ Termination Amount ”) that the Lessor notifies the Lessee in writing to be the aggregate of:

  • (i) any loss of profit suffered by the Lessor because of the Lessor’s inability to place the Aircraft on lease for the remaining balance of the Original Lease Period with another lessee on terms as favourable to the Lessor as this Agreement or because any use to which the Lessor is able to put the Aircraft for the remaining balance of the Original Lease Period following Redelivery is not as profitable to the Lessor as this Agreement would have been;

  • (ii) any amount of interest, fees or other sums paid or payable on account of funds borrowed in order to fund any unpaid amount; and

24.7 Lease Termination

The Lessor shall hold the Lease Termination Agreement in escrow until such time as Detention Exposure Event occurs and is continuing or, in the Lessor’s reasonable judgment, there is a material risk that a seizure or detention of the Aircraft is imminent, in which case Lessor may promptly, upon notice to Lessee, date and file the Lease Termination Agreement with TCCA. In the event that a Lease Termination Agreement is so filed with TCCA, the Lessee shall have a period of up to 30 days to satisfy the Lessor that the Detention Exposure Event is not continuing. If, during such period the Lessor is satisfied that the Detention Exposure Event is not continuing, it shall enter into a replacement lease in respect of the Aircraft with the Lessee with terms identical, with the necessary changes, to this Agreement. Otherwise, the Lessee shall comply with all obligations, including, without limitation, return conditions which result from an early termination of this Agreement; but, for greater certainty, the Lessor shall continue to maintain legal custody and control of the Aircraft while the Lessee complies with such obligation.
