WITHOUT LIMITING OR OTHERWISE IMPAIRING ANY SPECIFIC RIGHT OR REMEDY EXPRESSLY GRANTED OR RESERVED TO EITHER PARTY HEREIN, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION GOGO’S OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTIONS 3.3.5, 6, 7.7 AND 21.1 OF THIS AGREEMENT AND ITS OBLIGATION TO PAY LIQUIDATED DAMAGES UNDER SECTION 9.1.4 AND EXHIBIT F AND AMERICAN’S OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTIONS 6, 18.3 AND 21.2 OF THIS AGREEMENT AND EXHIBIT R, IN NO EVENT SHALL GOGO OR AMERICAN BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR OTHER SIMILAR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE ANY EQUIPMENT OR SOFTWARE DESCRIBED HEREIN EITHER SEPARATELY OR IN COMBINATION WITH ANY OTHER EQUIPMENT, SOFTWARE OR OTHER MATERIALS) SUFFERED OR INCURRED BY THE OTHER IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF GOGO OR AMERICAN HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OR CERTAINTY OF SUCH DAMAGES. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, AND WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR THE OTHER PARTY’S LOSS OF REPUTATION AS A RESULT OF A SECURITY INCIDENT.

FOR PURPOSES OF THIS AGREEMENT, IF AND TO THE EXTENT THAT GOGO AGREES (OR AMERICAN OBTAINS A FINAL, NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT FROM A COURT OR ARBITRATOR OF PROPER JURISDICTION) THAT PHYSICAL DAMAGE TO AN AIRCRAFT RESULTED OR AROSE FROM (a) GOGO’S NEGLIGENCE, (b) WITH RESPECT TO ANY RETROFIT A/C ON WHICH GOGO’S SUBCONTRACTOR INSTALLS OR MAINTAINS THE EQUIPMENT, THE NEGLIGENCE OF SUCH CONTRACTOR OR (c) A DEFECT IN THE SYSTEM CAUSED BY GOGO OR ITS SUPPLIERS OTHER THAN AMERICAN, SUCH DAMAGE SHALL BE CONSIDERED ACTUAL (AS OPPOSED TO SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL) DAMAGE, AND GOGO SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR SUCH DAMAGE TO SUCH EXTENT (SUBJECT TO THE LIMITATION SET FORTH IN THE NEXT PARAGRAPH OF THIS SECTION 23.1).

The Parties believe and expect that this Section 23 is enforceable in all respects. Nothing in this Agreement or its Exhibits, including the monetary limitations on liability set forth therein, shall (c) prejudice either Party’s right or ability to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in connection with breach or violation by the other Party of any of the terms, conditions or obligations set forth in this Agreement or in any Exhibit, or (d) be construed to impact the determination of whether injunctive or other equitable relief is an appropriate remedy in connection with any such breach or violation.

 

24. EXCUSABLE DELAYS

 

  24.1

Definition. Either Party shall be excused from performance of its obligations hereunder, and shall not be liable to the other Party for any direct, indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages suffered or incurred by the other Party arising out of a total or partial failure to perform hereunder or delay in such performance, to the extent resulting directly from any event or occurrence beyond the reasonable control of the delayed Party (collectively, “Excusable Delay”), including, without limitation, (a) acts of God, (b) wars or acts of a public enemy, (c) acts, failures to act or delays of the Governments of any state or political subdivision or any department or regulatory agency thereof or entity created thereby, including, without limitation, national aviation authorities, (d) quotas or embargoes, (e) acts of sabotage, (f) fires, floods or other natural catastrophes, (g) shortages or inability to obtain materials or components, or (h) strikes, lockouts or other labor stoppages, slowdowns or disputes; provided, however, that such delay is not occasioned by the fault or negligence of the delayed Party. Any Excusable Delay shall last only as long as the event remains beyond the control of the delayed Party and only to the extent that it is the direct cause of the delay. By way

  of clarification, and without limiting the foregoing, any act, failure to act or delay described in clause (c) of this Section 24.1 shall not be an Excusable Delay if and to the extent such act, failure to act or delay results from Gogo’s failure to comply with Sections 18.4.1.1 or 18.4.1.2, or any other schedule agreed upon by the Parties. For the avoidance of doubt, a delay by any of Gogo’s subcontractors shall not be an Excusable Delay unless the subcontractor itself has experienced an Excusable Delay.

 

  24.2 Recourse. The delayed Party shall notify the other Party within a reasonable time after it discovers an Excusable Delay has occurred, in writing, specifying the cause of the delay and, to the extent known, estimating the duration of the delay. No delay shall be excused unless such written notice shall have been given as required by this Section 24.2. If the Excusable Delay lasts in excess of [***], the non-delayed Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement.

 

25. GENERAL

 

  25.1 Independent Contractors. Gogo is an independent contractor of American, and personnel used or supplied by Gogo in performance of this Agreement shall be and remain employees or agents of Gogo and under no circumstances shall be considered employees or agents of American. Gogo shall have the sole responsibility for supervision and control of its personnel.

 

  25.2 Use of Subcontractors. Gogo will obtain American’s prior approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, of any subcontractor who will touch any Aircraft. American’s rejection of a subcontractor may result in delivery delays or additional costs, as negotiated by the Parties in good faith. Nothing in this Agreement shall create any contractual relationship between American and any such subcontractor, and no subcontract shall relieve Gogo of its obligations hereunder should the subcontractor fail to perform in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. American shall have no obligation to pay or to see to the payment of any money to any subcontractor. Gogo shall be solely responsible for the acts and omissions of Gogo’s subcontractors, with which Gogo shall have entered into agreements that contain confidentiality provisions at least as protective as those set forth herein. Any breach by a Gogo subcontractor of any terms or conditions of this Agreement shall be deemed a breach by Gogo.

Any notice, demand or document that either Party is required or otherwise desires to give or deliver to or make upon the other Party hereunder shall be in writing and shall be (a) personally delivered, (b) deposited in the United States Mail, registered or certified, return receipt requested, with postage prepaid, (c) sent by overnight courier, or (d) sent by facsimile with confirmation of receipt, addressed as follows:

This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon each of the Parties and their respective successors and assigns, but neither the rights nor the duties of either Party under this Agreement may be voluntarily or involuntarily assigned or delegated, in whole or part, without the prior written consent of the other Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

 

  25.5 Governing Law; Dispute Resolution. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed according to the internal laws of the State of New York without regard to conflicts of laws principles. Each Party agrees to negotiate in good faith to resolve any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or related to this Agreement prior to filing any suit, action or proceeding. In the event the Parties are unable to resolve the dispute within [***] following the commencement of negotiations, each Party shall escalate the dispute through the appropriate levels of management, up to and including the level of Chief Executive Officer at Gogo and Vice President-Procurement and Supply Chain or higher at American, until the resolution of the issue is achieved or the respective executives cannot agree to a resolution of the dispute. Unless otherwise agreed to by both Parties, in no event shall the escalation process exceed [***]. Any suit, action or proceeding filed by either Party under this Agreement shall be brought in the state courts of Tarrant County, Texas, and each Party irrevocably submits to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts for the purpose of any such suit, action or proceeding and hereby irrevocably waives any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding in such courts has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

 

  25.6 Press Release/Publicity. Neither Party hereto shall use the name or any trade name of or otherwise refer to the other Party or any of its Affiliates, directly or indirectly, in any advertisement, news release or professional or trade publication without receiving prior written approval from such other Party.

 

  25.7 Remedies. Except as expressly set forth herein, no remedy conferred upon or reserved to a Party herein is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other remedy given under this Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or otherwise. Except as expressly set forth herein, no delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default shall impair any such right or power or be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any such right and power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In order to entitle a Party to exercise any remedy reserved to it in this Agreement, it shall not be necessary to give any notice other than such notice as may be herein expressly required.

 

  25.8 Savings Clause. If any provision of this Agreement is declared unlawful or unenforceable as a result of final administrative, legislative or judicial action, this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to conform with the requirements of such action and all other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect.

 

  25.9 Waiver. No failure or delay by either Party in requiring strict performance of any provision of this Agreement, no previous waiver or forbearance of any provision of this Agreement by either Party and no course of dealing between the Parties shall in any way be construed as a waiver or continuing waiver of any provision of this Agreement.

  25.13 Survival. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any sections or portions of any sections of this Agreement (including the Exhibits hereto) that by their express terms survive, or by their nature should survive, expiration or termination of this Agreement shall survive such expiration or termination.

Exhibit E:

Gate-to-Gate Connectivity

Gate-to-Gate Services

 

1. General

 

  1.1. Connectivity Services, Wireless Entertainment and [***] shall be available “Gate-to-gate” for the 2Ku Fleet. Connectivity Services shall also be operational during maintenance activities when the Retrofit A/C is powered on, subject to the Gate-to-gate Exclusions in Exhibit J.

 

  1.2. The 2Ku SLA metrics will start and stop upon the Equipment receiving uniquely identifiable triggers. The 2Ku Solution is designed to utilize the anti-collision beacon discrete as the uniquely identifiable trigger, or alternatively the door discrete may be utilized. American may select an alternative option as provided in the diagram in this Exhibit E at a not-to-exceed cost of [***], which shall be delivered by the later [***] after American’s request in writing to proceed with such alternative option. The not-to-exceed price and aforementioned timeline are confined to the following areas of development: (i) customize Gate-to-gate software to utilize FMC data event to indicate start of flight, (ii) customize Gate-to-gate software to minimize customer impact (i.e., auto-resume of session) during foreseen “return to gate” scenarios, and (iii) customize Gate-to-gate software to utilize a door open discrete plus a configurable timer to indicate end of flight.

 

  1.3. The System shall be configured such that the ground period (i.e., gate and taxi) can be differentiated from the en route period, including for purposes such as reporting and collecting applicable taxes.

 

  1.4. Subject to the applicable Exclusions in Section 4 of Exhibit J-1, operational SSIDs will be broadcasting, and Connectivity Services to such operational SSIDs will be available at all times “without user intervention” as long as power is supplied to the Equipment, flight deck switches are in the “on position,” and the Equipment and Software are receiving IRU data.

 

  1.5. American and Gogo agree that the Gate-to-gate service scenario may need to be adjusted if the aircraft OEM imposes additional constraints on Equipment operations or if laws or regulations impact the provision of such Gate-to-gate services.

Exhibit N:

Services and Pricing for American Operational Use

Gogo has granted American access to Gogo’s Air-to-Ground link and the satellite link (individually, a “Link” and collectively, the “Links”) for the purposes of enabling airline business applications. Gogo will work with American to define and implement such airline business applications as American desires to enable over either or both Links, and to designate whether such applications will be deemed Operational Applications or Other Airline Business Applications (as each term is defined in this Exhibit N). (a) “Operational Applications” means applications that use Passenger Grade Operational Data; (b) “Passenger Grade Operational Data” means operational data, originating from application on an American-owned or issued device, which is integrated by American, and will have the same priority and be at least as secure as general passenger use of the Internet and will be entitled to the same network performance, use profile and reliability as such general use; and (c) “Other Airline Business Applications” means applications that may require increased levels of security, reliability, priority, integration, hosting, support, performance or use profile beyond Passenger Grade Operational Data, including any machine-to-machine transmissions.

Operational Applications are subject to the associated [***] charge set forth in Section 3.1 of Exhibit D. In the event any additional work is required to develop and implement an Operational Application, the Parties will negotiate in good faith and develop an SOW, if necessary. [***].

[***]

In the event that American notifies Gogo that it wishes to use either Link for additional Other Airline Business Applications, American and Gogo will negotiate in good faith and reflect in an SOW: (i) the desired operating and performance characteristics of the application, (ii) the integration services to be provided by Gogo in connection with such application, (iii) the price to be charged by Gogo for such integration service, and (iv) such other terms specific to such applications as the Parties agree upon.

Gogo will work with American and/or third-party providers in good faith to integrate and test, to the extent necessary, Other Airline Business Applications on a timely basis. For the avoidance of doubt, Gogo will not be obligated to increase the certification level of the System. If the normal operation of the System would be negatively affected by the integration of any airline business application under this Agreement, American and Gogo will work together in good faith to ensure that such conflicts are resolved.

In addition to the integration and testing described above, either Gogo or American may develop, independently, jointly or with third parties, airline business applications that may be enabled over the Link(s), although neither Party has any obligation to do so. [***].

Gogo represents and warrants that the Links will have the ability to prioritize data transfer. American and Gogo will work together in good faith to assign priorities that meet American’s business requirements without (except as required for safety or medical emergencies) negatively impacting the passenger connectivity experience or Gogo’s ability to meet its service level obligations set forth in any applicable SLA described in Exhibit J. Gogo will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the delivery of data over the Links is consistent with the agreed-upon priority levels. If the priorities requested by American could impair Gogo’s ability to meet its obligations under the applicable SLA, Gogo will, upon American’s request, work in good faith with American to revise the applicable SLA; provided, however, that nothing in this Exhibit N or the Agreement will require Gogo to agree to or implement any prioritization of airline business applications that, in Gogo’s reasonable judgment, could negatively impact the reputation of the Gogo brand or Gogo’s ability to meet its obligations under service level agreements with other airlines.
