(L)

In accordance with article 1112-1 of the French civil Code (Code civil), the Sellers have not intentionally withheld or omitted to disclose to the Purchaser any information that would be material to a reasonable purchaser’s decision to purchase the Companies or carry out the Overall Transaction.

Subject to the limitations and exclusions set forth in this Article 8 (in particular Article 8.3 and Article 8.8), each of the Sellers hereby undertakes to refund to the Purchaser all or part of the Final Purchase Price, up to the amount of any and all Losses suffered or incurred by the Purchaser or any of the Target Companies as a result from any breach or inaccuracy of any of the Sellers’ Representations and Warranties set forth in Article 7 (a “Refund”).

8.1.2

In the event of a Loss suffered by the Purchaser or any of the Target Companies, the amount of the Refund to be repaid to the Purchaser shall be equal to the total amount of the Loss calculated pursuant to Article 8.2 below.

Any Refund payable by the Sellers to the Purchaser under this Article 8 shall be apportioned (x) between the Sellers according to the percentage they hold directly or indirectly on the Closing Date (immediately prior to Closing) in the Target Company suffering the Loss, as set forth in Exhibit 2.3 or (y) pro rata to their respective portion in the Final Purchase Price (as set forth and determined pursuant to Article 2) if the Loss is suffered by the Purchaser.

8.1.4

All payments made by the Sellers to the Purchaser in respect of any claim under this Article 8 shall be treated for all purposes (including accounting, legal and Tax purposes) as adjustments to the Final Purchase Price to the extent permitted by law.

8.2

Calculation of Losses

8.2.1

In calculating the amount of a Loss, there shall be:

deducted the amount (net of Taxes) of any indemnification or other recovery, including insurance proceeds from any insurance policy, actually recovered with respect to such Loss by the Purchaser or any of the Target Companies, depending on the Entity having suffered the Loss, net of the reasonable costs and fees incurred to recover such amounts; and

In calculating the amount of a Loss, if any indemnification payment made by a Seller to the Purchaser or any of the Target Companies is subject to any Tax, or to other deduction or withholding required by Law, such indemnification payment will be increased by an amount that will ensure that the Purchaser or any of the Target Companies, as the case may be, receives and retains a net sum equal to the sum it would have received had the payment not been subject to such Tax, deduction or withholding.

Execution version

8.3

Exclusions

8.3.1

The Sellers shall not be liable towards the Purchaser or any of the Target Companies under this Article 8 in respect of any Loss if, and only to the extent, it results directly from:

the entry into force of any Law after the date of the Agreement, or any change in legislation announced, after the date of this Agreement, even if said Law has a retroactive effect; or

a Tax reassessment, the only effect of which would be to shift the income or expense of one financial year to the immediately following financial year, and that does not give rise to any additional Tax burden for the Purchaser or any of the Target Companies in comparison to that which they would bear in the absence of such reassessment, or a value added tax reassessment which does not result in an actual charge to the Purchaser or any of the Target Companies; except (i) for the amount of any penalty, late payment interest or fine resulting from such reassessment and any related costs (including any treasury costs), fees and charges and except if the reassessment modifies the useful amount of losses or other tax advantages in a manner adverse to the Purchaser or any of the Target Companies, and/or (ii) for any increased Tax incurred by the Purchaser or any of the Target Companies as a result of additional Taxes to be due or as a result of an increase in applicable or effective Tax rates.

8.3.2

For the avoidance of doubt, if there is a breach or inaccuracy of more than one of the Sellers’ Representations and Warranties on account of the same facts or circumstances, such omission, breach, or inaccuracy shall not give rise to more than one Refund for any Loss on account thereof.

8.3.3

Any Loss arising out from a fact, circumstance or event Fairly Disclosed to the Purchaser, may not on any account lead to a Refund of the Purchaser, which the latter expressly acknowledges and agrees.

FLIGHT HOUR GUARANTEE; PRICING; RATES; FEES

4.1

Flight Hour Guarantee

(i)

During each Contract Period and as set forth on the Contract Period Key Terms Schedule, the Parties shall agree on a minimum total number of flight hours on each Owned Aircraft for Blade Flights which the Blade Parties will guarantee to [Héli Sécurité Transporteur], [Monacair Transporteur] and [Azur Transporteur], collectively, in such Contract Period (the “Flight Hour Guarantee”). The Flight Hour Guarantee shall be allocated month by month for each Contract Period (each such monthly allocation, the “Monthly Flight Hour Guarantee”) as set forth on the Contract Period Key Terms Schedule.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Flight Hour Guarantee shall not apply for the Contract Period ending December 31, 2022. The Flight Hour Guarantee will enter into effect for the Contract Period starting January 1 and ending December 31, 2023.

For purposes of clarity, only Flown Hours with Owned Aircraft will count towards the Flight Hour Guarantee. There shall be no guarantee whatsoever covering the Managed Aircraft.

(ii)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Flight Hour Guarantee will be reduced by (and the Blade Parties will not be invoiced for) any flight hours of Scheduled Flights or requested Charter Flights that are not provided by the Air Carriers due to maintenance, training or unavailability of Aircraft or personnel (including the Air Carriers’ inability to provide an Air Carrier Replacement Aircraft, if applicable), loss of any regulatory authorities affecting the ability of the Air Carriers to operate in the normal course or an Event of Force Majeure, provided that the Air Carriers are not using all of the Owned Aircraft to operate Blade Flights during the time of the requested Blade Flight.

In the event the Flight Hour Guarantee is to be reduced pursuant to this Article 4.1(ii), the Parties agree to reduce the Flight Hour Guarantee in an amount equal to the Key Route Flight Time for the corresponding Key Route (or, if applicable, the Standard Flight Time for a non-Key Route) of any such Scheduled Flight or Charter Flight which was not provided by the Air Carriers.

4.2

Guarantee Shortfall

A “Guarantee Shortfall” will be calculated every month by subtracting Flown Hours and any reductions to the Flight Hour Guarantee as described in Article 4.1 above from the applicable Monthly Flight Hour Guarantee. If a Guarantee Shortfall exists at the end of a calendar quarter, within one (1) week of the end of said calendar quarter, the Air Carriers shall send an invoice to the Blade Parties, which the Blade Parties agree to pay, of an amount equal to (x) the Guarantee Shortfall, if any, multiplied by (y) the average of the Guarantee Shortfall Rates (as defined below), weighted by the distribution of the Guarantee Shortfall across the Owned Aircraft during the applicable calendar quarter. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, during the first one (1) month following any such calendar quarter which a Guarantee Shortfall exists (each, a “Guarantee Shortfall Makeup Period”), the Blade Parties will have the opportunity to meet any Guarantee Shortfall by applying any aggregated Flown Hours, operated by the Air Carriers, collectively, during such Guarantee Shortfall Makeup Period to any Guarantee Shortfall from the preceding calendar quarter, without being responsible for payment of the Guarantee Shortfall should no Guarantee ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ remain after such application.

4.3

Rates

(iii)

Each Contract Period Key Terms Schedule will set forth:

(A)

the hourly rates for each Aircraft to apply to Flown Hours up until the Flight Hour Guarantee is met (the “Standard Rates”), it being provided that for the purpose of covering the Flown Hours required for pilot training and maintenance which remain at the charge of the Air Carriers, it is agreed that the same Standard Rates will continue until the aggregated Flown Hours, calculated from the beginning of each Contract Period, are in excess of the “Standard Rate Threshold” outlined in the Contract Period Key Terms Schedule,

(B)

the hourly rates for each Owned Aircraft to apply to the Guarantee Shortfall following the completion of the Guarantee Shortfall Makeup Period (the “Guarantee Shortfall Rates”), it being intended that each Aircraft’s Guarantee Excess Rate is an amount intended to cover only the portion of the applicable Standard Rate attributable to such Aircraft’s fixed costs and shall not include any portion of the applicable Standard Rate attributable to such Aircraft’s direct operating costs, and

(C)

the hourly rates for each Aircraft to apply to Flown Hours upon the satisfaction of the conditions pursuant to either Article 4.3(ii)(A) or Article 4.3(ii)(B) (the “Guarantee Excess Rates,” and together with the Standard Rates and the Guarantee Shortfall Rates, the “Rates”), it being intended that each Aircraft’s Guarantee Excess Rate is an amount intended to cover only the portion of the applicable Standard Rate attributable to such Aircraft’s direct operating cost and shall not include any portion of the applicable Standard Rate attributable to such Aircraft’s fixed costs.

(iv)

It is hereby agreed that, during each calendar month, the Standard Rates shall be applied to Flown Hours, except that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Guarantee Excess Rates shall be applied to Flown Hours in the event that either:

(A)

both (i) the aggregated number of Flown Hours, calculated from the beginning of each Contract Period until the end of the immediately preceding calendar month (the “Relevant Period”), is in excess of the aggregated monthly Standard Rate Threshold, as outlined in the Contract Period Key Terms Schedule. (the “Monthly Standard Rate Threshold”) as outlined for the Relevant Period, and (ii) the aggregated number of Flown Hours, calculated from the beginning of the current calendar month, is in excess of the applicable Monthly Flight Hour Guarantee (the satisfaction of both conditions under this Article 4.3(ii)(A) known as a “Monthly Guarantee Excess Rate Event”); or

(B)

the aggregated number of Flown Hours, calculated from the beginning of each Contract Period, is equal to or higher than the Standard Rate Threshold.

(v)

In the event both (i) a Guarantee Shortfall exists for any of the Owned Aircraft at the end of a calendar quarter and (ii) a Monthly Guarantee Excess Rate Event has occurred in such calendar quarter for the type of Owned Aircraft which such Guarantee Shortfall exists, the Air Carriers shall, in addition to their rights under Article 4.2, send an invoice to the Blade Parties one (1) week after the end of such calendar quarter of an amount equal to (x) the number of Flown Hours during said calendar quarter which the Blade Parties were charged Guarantee Excess Rates multiplied (y) the difference between the applicable Standard Rate and applicable Guarantee Excess Rate.

(vi)

Unless otherwise set forth in the Agreement or mutually agreed upon by the Parties in writing, the Rates are inclusive of all cost of capital, fueling, staffing, insurance, maintenance, surcharges, and any other applicable costs. The Parties agree that the Rates will be structured in a way that will allow the Air Carriers a reasonable opportunity to receive a reasonable profit margin, taking into account the Flight Hour Guarantee and reasonable and routine anticipated Aircraft maintenance costs and excluding government fees, taxes and landing fees paid by the Air Carriers and referred to in Article 4.6 and Article 4.8 below (which will be repaid by the Blade Parties at cost).

(vii)

The Parties agree as attached hereto in Schedule H-1 that:

•

An additional [•] charge applies to costs pertaining to leased Managed Aircraft, pilot salaries, pilot benefits, pilot training, pilot housing, Aircraft hangar costs, insurance, and maintenance services (including working hours and parts) and certain costs to the exclusion of the lease costs for Owned Aircraft, the passenger and landing taxes and the administrative costs; and

Article 9

EXCLUSIVITY RIGHTS

The Air Carriers and their Affiliates hereby grant the Blade Parties and their Affiliates the non-revocable right to become the exclusive air charter broker and/or reseller of all Exclusive Air Transportation Services operated, provided, marketed, sold or offered by the Air Carriers and their Affiliates in the Exclusive Territory, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Air Carriers will be the Blade Parties’ “first call” operator to operate the Exclusive Air Transportation Services marketed or sold by the Blade Parties within the Exclusive Territory using Aircraft (i) reasonably comparable to the type requested and (ii) reasonably capable of completing the trip to be operated (distance, type of flight and airport of departure and arrival). The Air Carriers will have a “right of first refusal” to operate any such Exclusive Air Transportation Services within the Exclusive Territory. The Blade Parties must first offer to the Air Carriers the opportunity to operate any Exclusive Air Transportation Services marketed or sold by the Blade Parties within the Exclusive Territory in good faith and on commercially reasonable terms (as determined by the Blade Parties’ acting reasonably).

With respect to requests for Scheduled Flights and Charter Flights made by the Blade Parties that are not related to Key Route Expansion, the Air Carriers must inform the Blade Parties of any refusal or declination to operate such Exclusive Air Transportation Services as soon as reasonably possible (and if reasonably capable under the circumstances, no later than 72 hours before the offered Exclusive Air Transportation Services). If the Air Carriers refuse or decline to operate such Exclusive Air Transportation Services, the Blade Parties will have the right to use third party air carriers to operate the Exclusive Air Transportation Services which have been refused by the Air Carriers, which will not constitute a breach of any exclusivity or other provisions contained in the Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the Key Route Expansion only, the Air Carriers must inform the Blade Entities of any refusal or declination to operate such Exclusive Air Transportation Services as soon as reasonably possible and no later than one (1) month following the first discussion between the Parties relating to a Key Route Expansion pursuant to Article 7.1 above, on the understanding that, should a new helicopter be required, the Air Carriers will have a period of six (6) months, beginning on the date the Air Carriers inform the Blade Parties of their desire to operate such new routes, to identify, finance and acquire the said helicopter. If the Air Carriers refuse or decline to operate such Exclusive Air Transportation Services or are unable to offer commercially-viable terms, as determined by Blade Europe and/or Blade, in good faith and in their sole discretion, the Blade Parties will have the right to use third party air carriers to operate the Exclusive Air Transportation Services which have been refused by the Air Carriers, which will not constitute a breach of any exclusivity or other provisions contained in the Agreement.

Article 10

DATA PROTECTION

Each Party shall comply at all times with its respective obligations under Privacy Laws with respect to any Personal Information of Existing Customers and New Customers.

With respect to the processing of Personal Information carried out by the Air Carriers to perform the Exclusive Air Transportation Services, Blade France 1 and/or Blade France 2 and/or Blade Monaco shall act as a controller and the Air Carriers shall each act as processors within the meaning of Privacy Laws. The Data Protection Agreement in Schedule F sets out the terms and conditions applicable to such processing.

With respect to the processing of Personal Information carried out by the Air Carriers to comply with regulatory constraints to which they are subject pursuant to Applicable Laws, the Air Carriers shall act as independent controllers within the meaning of Privacy Laws.

Considering that both processing contemplated above involve transfers of Personal Information from Blade France 1 and/or Blade France 2 to [Monacair Transporteur], located in Monaco, a country which is not regarded as ensuring an adequate level of data protection by the European Commission, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ 2 and [Monacair Transporteur] have decided to rely on the Standard Contractual Clauses (Module 1: controller to controller for regulatory purposes; and Module 2: controller to processor for the performance of the Exclusive Air Transportation Services) in Schedule G.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Air Carriers undertake not to use Personal Information of Existing Customers and New Customers for any other purposes than to provide the Exclusive Air Transportation Services and to comply with regulatory constraints to which they are subject pursuant to Applicable Laws.

12.6

Change of Control

During the Term, none of the Air Carriers nor EOLA will merge, amalgamate or consolidate with any Person or otherwise experience a change of Control, meaning for the purpose of this article, the fact for the Air Carriers to cease being Controlled, directly or indirectly by EOLA or EOLA to cease being Controlled by Mr. Marco Casiraghi, Mr. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, Mr. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Mr. ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ collectively, without prior written consent of the Blade Parties and Blade, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Subject to the paragraph below in this Article 12.6, the Parties agree that the Blade Parties and Blade shall not withhold, condition or delay their consent in case of any transaction resulting in a change of Control of EOLA provided that at least 51% of EOLA’s share capital and voting rights remain directly or indirectly held by at least two Persons amongst Mr. Marco Casiraghi, Mr. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, Mr. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Mr. ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such merger, amalgamation, consolidation or change of Control of EOLA, as reasonably determined by the Blade Parties or Blade, as the case may be, (i) is with a Person that is a direct competitor with the Blade Parties or their Affiliates, or (ii) materially impacts the Blade Parties’ rights under this Agreement, then the Blade Parties and/or Blade, as the case may be, may withhold their consent in their sole and unfettered discretion.

Article 13

14.2

Indemnification by the Air Carriers

Subject to the other provisions of this Article 14, the Air Carriers and EOLA hereby agree to jointly and severally indemnify, save and hold harmless the Blade Parties and their Affiliates and each of its directors, officers, employees, members, agents, representatives, successors and assigns (each, a “Blade Indemnitee” and together, the “Blade Indemnitees” ) from and against any all Losses asserted against or incurred by the Blade Indemnitees as a result of, arising out of or related to (a) the breach of the representations and warranties of the Air Carriers and EOLA contained in this Agreement, (b) the breach of covenants and agreements of the Air Carriers in this Agreement; (c) any act of gross negligence or willful misconduct by the Air Carriers or their respective agents, contractors (other than the Blade Parties or their Affiliates), servants, employees or guests in connection with this Agreement or the performance of the obligations of the Air Carriers’ pursuant to this Agreement; (d) the performance of the Air Carriers’ obligations under this Agreement, including with respect to loss of life, personal injury, property damage (including relating to the Aircraft), passenger legal liability, product liability, contractual liability, independent contractors, and coverage for baggage and cargo; (e) the actions or omissions of the Air Carriers, their employees or contractors in relation to the construction of the Blade Heliport Lounges, to the extent that any of the Blade Indemnitees did not contribute to such Losses; and (f) damage, malfunction or outage to the IT Systems of the Blade Parties caused by the Air Carriers or their employees and/or contractors, to the extent that any of the Blade Indemnitees did not contribute to such Losses.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, EOLA’s shareholders, as individuals, and Mr. ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (together, the “Guaranteeing Parties”) irrevocably jointly but not severally (conjointement mais sans solidarité) guarantee, each up to twenty-five percent (25%), payment of any amount owed to the Blade Parties which the Air Carriers and EOLA are unable provide payment for under this Article under Article 14.2a (such amount, the “Guaranteed Indemnity”). As such, the Guaranteeing Parties will remit in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account or accounts designated by the Blade Parties a total amount equal to the Guaranteed Indemnity no later than seven (7) months following the Termination Date triggering the payment of Termination Damages.

14.3

Indemnification Limitations

(i)

The Party making any indemnification pursuant to this Agreement will be referred to as the “Indemnifying Party” and the Blade Indemnitees or the Air Carriers Indemnitees, as the case may be, receiving such indemnification will be referred to as the “Indemnified Party”.

(ii)

The representations and warranties contained in Article 11 and the covenants contained in Article 12 shall survive and continue in full force and effect during the Term. For the avoidance of doubt, it is the intention of the Parties that the foregoing respective survival periods and termination dates supersede any applicable statutes of limitations that would otherwise apply to such representations and warranties and covenants.

(iii)

The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under Article 14.1 and Article 14.2 shall be net of (a) any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party (net of any costs of investigation of the underlying claim and of collection) pursuant to any indemnification by or indemnification agreement with any Person (other than this Agreement) and (b) any insurance proceeds (net of any costs of investigation of the underlying claim and of collection) actually received as an offset against such Losses (each such source of recovery, a “Collateral Source”). If, after payment by the Indemnifying Party of an amount under this Article 14, the Indemnified Party actually recovers from any Collateral Source an amount which would have been netted pursuant to this Article 14.3, then the Indemnified Party must promptly repay the Indemnifying Party the difference between the amount paid by the Indemnifying Party and the amount recovered from a Collateral Source.

(iv)

The Indemnified Party shall take commercially reasonable steps to mitigate any Losses as soon as reasonably practicable after such Indemnified Party becomes aware of any event which does, or could reasonably be expected to, give rise to any such Losses.

(v)

In the event an Indemnified Party shall recover Losses in respect of a claim of indemnification under this Article 14, no other Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover the same Losses in respect of a separate claim for indemnification related to the same subject matter.

14.4

Indemnification Procedure

(i)

Within (30) Business Days of the date the Indemnified Party becomes aware of the incurrence of any Losses giving rise to indemnification hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party a certificate (a “Claim Certificate”), which shall:

(A)

state that the Indemnified Party has incurred or anticipates that it will incur Losses for which such Indemnified Party believes it is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article 14; and

(B)

specify in reasonable detail the Losses that have been sustained by the Indemnified Party, including copies of all material written evidence relating to the Losses, and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty, breach of covenant or claim to which each such item is related and the computation of the amount to which such Indemnified Party claims to be entitled hereunder.

(ii)

The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after receipt by the Indemnifying Party of such Claim Certificate to respond in writing with an objection to the Claim Certificate, which shall specify in reasonable detail the basis for such objection. During such thirty (30)-day period, the Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Losses under the Claim Certificate, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Claim Certificate and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to the premises and personnel of the Indemnified Party and their respective Affiliates and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If, within such thirty (30)-day period, the Indemnifying Party:

(A)

does not respond, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have accepted the contents of the Claim Certificate; or

(B)

delivers an objection notice in accordance with this Article 14.4 then the Parties shall use good faith efforts to agree to a resolution of the disputed amounts in the Claim Certificate during the sixty (60)-day period following receipt of the objection by the Indemnified Party. If, at the expiry of this sixty (60)-day period, no agreement has been reached, then the Indemnified Party shall be permitted to submit such dispute to the arbitration as set forth in Article 16.2.

(iii)

For the avoidance of doubt, this Article 14.4 does not apply to Third Party Claims, which are dealt with under Article 14.5.

14.5

Third Party Claims

(i)

If the Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Action, suit, claim or other legal proceeding made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate thereof (a “Third Party Claim”), and if the Indemnified Party intends to seek indemnity with respect thereto under this Article 14, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of such Third Party Claim. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Losses that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right but not the obligation to assume the conduct and control of the settlement or defense of such Third Party Claim, through counsel it so chooses in its sole discretion at the expense of the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party may compromise or settle the same; provided that the Indemnifying Party may not settle any such Third Party Claim unless such settlement includes an unconditional waiver of any Liability on the part of the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of the Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall permit the Indemnified Party to participate in, but not control, the defense of such Third Party Claim through counsel chosen by the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to control or conduct the defense or prosecution of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party nevertheless shall have the right to participate in the defense or prosecution of any Third Party Claim and, at its own expense, to employ counsel of its own choosing for such purpose.

(ii)

The Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available records relating to such Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense to the Indemnifying Party and/or its Representatives, such employees of the Indemnified Party and their respective Affiliates as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of any such Third Party Claim or for testimony as witnesses in any proceeding relating to such Third Party Claim.

(iii)

The Indemnified Party shall not have the right to pay or settle any such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party.

14.6

Payment

(i)

“Agreed Claims” means, collectively, (i) claims for Losses deemed accepted by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to Article 14.4; (ii) claims for Losses which have been agreed between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party or judicially determined pursuant to Article 14.4; and (iii) claims for Losses in relation to Third Party Claims that have been settled or judicially determined pursuant to Article 14.5.

(ii)

Within thirty (30) Business Days of the determination of the amount of any Agreed Claim (or at such other time as the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall agree in writing):

In the case of a payment owing by the Air Carriers to the Blade Indemnitees the Air Carriers shall pay to the Blade Indemnitees an amount equal to such indemnity in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account or accounts designated by the Blade Parties in a notice to the Air Carriers,

In the case of a payment owing by the Blade Indemnitees by the Air Carriers, then the Blade Parties shall pay to the Air Carriers Indemnitees such amount owing in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account or accounts designated by the Air Carriers in a notice to the Blade Parties.

The Parties acknowledge and agree that the harm caused to the Blade Parties by a termination of this Agreement resulting from a Material Breach for which any of the Air Carriers are the Defaulting Party is a reasonable assessment, as of the date hereof, of the anticipated and/or actual harm that might arise from such termination for Material Breach.

15.5

Remedies

(i)

Unless otherwise provided herein, the rights and remedies of any Party under this Agreement are cumulative and are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any rights or remedies provided by law or by equity. Any single or partial exercise by a Party of any right or remedy pursuant to Article 15.1, Article 15.2, or Article 15.3 shall not be deemed to be a waiver of or to alter, affect, or prejudice any other right or remedy to which the Non-Defaulting Party may be lawfully entitled to. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Party shall be entitled to indemnification or reimbursement under any provision of this Agreement for any Losses to the extent such Losses have already been indemnified or reimbursed under any other provision of this Agreement.

(ii)

In the event of payment of Termination Damages, EOLA, the Air Carriers and/or their Affiliates shall not bear further liability in relation to the Material Breach having caused the relevant termination other than for claims arising from such Material Breach which are indemnifiable by EOLA, the Air Carriers and/or their Affiliates pursuant to Article 14.

(iii)

The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, the Parties agree that, in addition to any other remedies, each Party shall be entitled to enforce the terms of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy. Each Party hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy. Each Party further agrees that the only permitted objection that it may raise in response to any action for equitable relief is that it contests the existence of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement.

15.6

Blade Call Option

(i)

In the event that any of the Air Carriers gives written notice to the Blade Parties of its intention not to renew this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of Article 8.1(i)) EOLA hereby unconditionally and irrevocably grants to Blade Europe the right to require, EOLA (which undertakes for itself and on behalf of all then minority shareholders) to sell all (but not less than all) of the Air Carriers Call Shares to Blade Europe or to any Persons designated by Blade Europe during the Blade Call Period upon exercise by Blade Europe of such Blade Call Option, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Article 15.6 (the “Blade Call Option”). EOLA warrants that at anytime during the Call Period, each of the Air Carriers will own the Air Carriers’ Business in full, including the Aircraft, the Permits and the employees assigned to the Air Carriers’ Business. Blade Europe accepts this Blade Call Option as an option only, on the understanding that it entails no obligation for Blade Europe nor for any Affiliate thereto, to purchase the Air Carriers Call Shares and consequently, Blade Europe expressly reserves the right to exercise or not to exercise the Blade Call Option that is hereby granted to it or to simply waive its benefit.

(ii)

EOLA undertakes, between the date of this Agreement and the date of expiry of the Blade Call Period following termination of this Agreement, not to revoke the Blade Call Option.

(iii)

During the Blade Call Period, Blade Europe shall have the right, but not the obligation, to exercise the Blade Call Option by delivering written notice to such effect to EOLA (the “Blade Call Exercise Notice”). The Blade Call Exercise Notice shall (i) state the decision of Blade Europe to exercise the Blade Call Option with respect to all of the Air Carriers Call Shares and (ii) indicate the name of the Persons designated by Blade Europe, to purchase all of the Air Carriers Call Shares (the “Blade Exercising Companies”).

(iv)

Upon delivery of the Blade Call Exercise Notice, EOLA shall cause each of the Air Carriers, as the case may be, to:

In case the Independent Accounting Firm appointed by the Parties or the President of the Commercial Court of Paris is unable or unwilling to act, the appointment procedure set forth in this Article ‎shall be repeated as often as necessary until the Air Carriers Call Shares Price or the Blade Parties Call Shares Price, are finally determined.

(iii)

For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” consists of all information and data relating to the Overall Transaction (other than data or information that is or becomes available to the public other than as a result of a breach of this Article ‎19.4 or is obtained by the relevant Party after the execution date of this Agreement from a third party under no obligation of confidentiality to the other Party or its Affiliates).

(ii)

Each Party undertake:

that any communication, by any way whatsoever, whether provided by the Applicable Law or not, relating to this Agreement and more generally any document drafted in connection with the Overall Transaction, shall be subject to the mutual consent of the Parties;

to hold, and to cause their respective representatives, advisors, employees and/or Affiliates to hold in strict confidence the existence, subject matter and contents of this Agreement and the Parties shall take all reasonable actions to ensure that no accidental or unauthorized disclosure of information relating thereto occurs; and

to refrain from (and to cause their respective representatives, advisors, employees and/or Affiliates to refrain from) issuing or causing the publication of any press release or other public announcement or public disclosure with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written consent of the relevant Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(iii)

In the event any press release, public announcement or other disclosure is required by Applicable Law to be made by the Party proposing to issue the same, such Party shall use its commercially reasonable endeavors to consult in good faith with the other Parties as to the timing, contents and manner of making any such press release, public announcement or other disclosure.

19.7

No hardship

19.8

Severability

Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under Applicable Laws, but if any term or other provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable under Applicable Laws, all other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party.

19.10

Waiver of Rights

Any waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement will be binding only if it is in writing and signed by the Party to be bound by it, and only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it has been given. The failure or delay of any Party in exercising any right under this Agreement will not operate as a waiver of that right. No single or partial exercise of any right will preclude any other or further exercise of that right or the exercise of any other right, and no waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement will constitute a waiver of any other provision (whether or not similar).

19.11

Advisors

The Parties hereby expressly declare that they have freely (i) determined the manner in which they wish to be legally advised for the purposes of the Overall Transaction and (ii) negotiated the terms and conditions of the Agreement and the Share Purchase Agreement (as well as all ancillary agreements and documents in the context of the Overall Transaction).

Each Party acknowledges that this Agreement cannot be considered as a contrat d’adhésion within the meaning of article 1110 of the French Code civil.

The Parties further represent that the provisions of this Agreement have, in accordance with the mandatory provisions of article 1104 of the French Code civil, been negotiated in good faith and attest that this Agreement reflects the balance requested by each of them.

19.12

Counterparts

This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement. No Party will be bound to this Agreement unless and until all Parties have executed and delivered a counterpart. Signature pages may be executed and delivered electronically using DocuSign, AdobeSign or other digital signature provider, or by wet ink signature captured on a portable document format (PDF) email attachment, and any signature pages so executed and delivered will be valid, binding and enforceable for all purposes.
