The Buyer shall furnish to the Seller all data and information in the Buyer’s possession relevant to the Interface Problem and shall cooperate with the Seller in the conduct of the Seller’s investigations and such tests as may be required.

The Seller shall promptly advise the Buyer of such corrective action as may be proposed by the Seller and any such Supplier.

| 18.1.1.2 | Notwithstanding the foregoing and without prejudice to Clause 2.4, if the Buyer wishes to install BFE manufactured by a supplier who is not referred to in the Airbus BFE Product Catalog, the Buyer shall so inform the Seller and the Seller shall conduct a feasibility study of the Buyer’s request, in order to consider approving such supplier, provided that such request is compatible with the Seller’s industrial planning and the associated Scheduled Delivery Month for the Buyer’s Aircraft. Any approval of a supplier by the Seller shall be performed at the Buyer’s expense. However, in the event that a BFE item supplied by a BFE manufacturer which becomes approved by the Seller pursuant to this paragraph thereafter becomes offerable in the Seller’s BFE Product Catalog, [*****]. |
In addition, it is a prerequisite to such approval that the considered BFE supplier be qualified by the Seller’s Aviation Authorities to produce equipment for installation on civil aircraft. The Buyer shall use reasonable endeavours to cause any BFE supplier approved under this Clause 18.1.1.2 (each an “Approved BFE Supplier”) to comply with the conditions set forth in this Clause 18 and specifically Clause 18.2. Except for the specific purposes of this Clause 18.1.1.2, the term “BFE Supplier” shall be deemed to include Approved BFE Suppliers.
| 18.1.2.1 | The Seller shall advise the Buyer of the dates by which, in the planned release of engineering for the Aircraft, the Seller requires a written detailed engineering definition, encompassing a Declaration of Design and Performance (the “ BFE Engineering Definition”). The Seller shall provide to the Buyer and/or the BFE Supplier(s), within an appropriate timeframe, the necessary interface documentation to enable the development of the BFE Engineering Definition. |
The BFE Engineering Definition shall include the description of the dimensions and weight of BFE, the information related to its certification and the information necessary for the installation and operation thereof, including when applicable 3D models compatible with the Seller’s systems. The Buyer shall furnish, or cause the BFE Suppliers to furnish, the BFE Engineering Definition by the dates specified.
Thereafter, the BFE Engineering Definition shall not be revised, except through an SCN executed in accordance with Clause 2.
| 18.1.2.2 | The Seller shall also provide in due time to the Buyer a schedule of dates and the shipping addresses for delivery of the BFE and, where requested by the Seller, additional spare BFE to permit installation in the Aircraft and Delivery of the Aircraft in accordance with the Aircraft delivery schedule. The BFE shall be provided by such dates in a serviceable condition, in order to allow performance of any assembly, installation, test or acceptance process in accordance with the Seller’s industrial schedule. In order to facilitate the follow-up of the timely receipt of BFE, the Buyer shall, upon the Seller’s request, provide to the Seller dates and references of all BFE purchase orders placed by the Buyer. |

Should the Buyer not attend such SI, the Buyer shall delegate the SI to the BFE Supplier and confirmation thereof shall be brought to the Seller in writing. Should the Buyer not attend the SI, the Buyer shall be deemed to have accepted the conclusions of the BFE Supplier with respect to such SI. |
The Seller shall be entitled to attend the PDR, the CDR and the FAI. In doing so, the Seller’s employees shall be acting in an advisory capacity only and at no time shall they be deemed to be acting as Buyer’s employees or agents, either directly or indirectly.
