Subject: Option Aircraft

Reference: Purchase Agreement No. 2061 (the Purchase Agreement) between The Boeing Company (Boeing) and Continental Airlines, Inc. (Customer) relating to Model 777-200ER aircraft (the Aircraft)

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This Letter Agreement amends and supplements the Purchase Agreement. All terms used but not defined in this Letter Agreement have the same meaning as in the Purchase Agreement. This Letter Agreement supersedes and replaces in its entirety Letter Agreement 2061-1R6 dated June 25, 2002.

Boeing agrees to manufacture and sell to Customer additional Model 777-200ER aircraft as Option Aircraft. The delivery months, number of aircraft, Advance Payment Base Price per aircraft and advance payment schedule are listed in the Attachment to this Letter Agreement (the Attachment).

1. Aircraft Description and Changes

1.1 Aircraft Description: The Option Aircraft are described by the Detail Specification listed in the Attachment.

1.2 Changes: The Detail Specification will be revised to include:

(i) Changes applicable to the basic Model 777 aircraft which are developed by Boeing between the date of the Detail Specification and the signing of the definitive agreement to purchase the Option Aircraft;

(ii) Changes required to obtain required regulatory certificates; and

    1. Changes mutually agreed upon.

 

 

 

2. Price

2.1 The pricing elements of the Option Aircraft are listed in the Attachment.

2.2 Price Adjustments.

2.2.1 Optional Features. The Optional Features Prices for the Option Aircraft will be adjusted to Boeing's current prices as of the date of execution of the definitive agreement for the Option Aircraft.

2.2.2 Escalation Adjustments. The Airframe Price and the Optional Features Prices for Option Aircraft delivering before June, 2007, will be escalated on the same basis as the Aircraft.

2.2.3 Base Price Adjustments. The Airframe Price and the Engine Price of the Option Aircraft delivering before June, 2007, will be adjusted to Boeing's and the engine manufacturer's then current prices as of the date of execution of the definitive agreement for the Option Aircraft.

2.2.4 Prices for Long Lead Time Aircraft. Boeing and the engine manufacturer have not established prices and escalation provisions for Model 777-200ER aircraft and engines for delivery from June, 2007 and thereafter. When prices and the pricing bases are established for the Model 777-200ER aircraft delivering from June, 2007 and thereafter, the information listed in the Attachment will be appropriately amended.

3. Payment.

3.1 Customer has paid a deposit to Boeing in the amount shown in the Attachment opposite the caption "Non-Refundable Deposit per Aircraft" for each Option Aircraft (the Option Deposit), prior to the date of this Letter Agreement. If Customer exercises an option, the Option Deposit will be credited against the first advance payment due. If Customer does not exercise an option, Boeing will retain the Option Deposit for that Option Aircraft.

3.2 Following option exercise, advance payments in the amounts and at the times listed in the Attachment in the columns under the caption "Advance Payment Per Aircraft" will be payable for the Option Aircraft.

The remainder of the Aircraft Price for the Option Aircraft will be paid at the time of delivery.

4. Option Exercise.

Customer may exercise an option by giving written notice to Boeing on or before the date 18 months prior to the first business day of the applicable delivery month listed in the Attachment (Option Exercise Date).

  1. Contract Terms.

Boeing and Customer will use their best efforts to reach a definitive agreement for the purchase of an Option Aircraft if Customer execises its option to acquire such Option Aircraft, including the terms and conditions contained in this Letter Agreement, in the Purchase Agreement, and other terms and conditions as may be agreed upon to add the Option Aircraft to the Purchase Agreement as an Aircraft. If the parties have not entered into a definitive agreement within 30 days following option exercise, either party may terminate the purchase of such Option Aircraft by giving written notice to the other within 5 days.
