The dramatic increase in oil & gas market supply and reduced demand for commodities has led to a strong US Dollar FOREX Impact Partially offsets the positive impact of low fuel costs for operators Increases the cost of dollar based flight hour agreements (and parts/material in general) Cost of labor for in-country MROs is cheaper driving up margins for US dollar based contracts Buying/leasing aircraft becomes more expensive The CRABS : Countries with economies that are heavily dependent on commodity exports 10% 0% -10% -20% -30% -40% -50% Russian Ruble -37.6% R Global Currency Exchange Rates vs USD % Value Change, September 2014 September 2016 Brazilian Real -24.6% B S.

There two primary reasons operators are aggressively seeking non-oem supplied parts; Three alternatives to purchasing OEM-supplied parts: Surplus DER Repair PMA 1. Cost savings 2. Part availability Three types of surplus material: 1. Used Serviceable Material (USM) 2. New Material 3. Used, unserviceable material DER (Designated Engineering Representatives), FAA approved engineers who can approve technical data for repairs and modifications outside the CMM Design Organization Approval (DOA), a blanket approval for an MRO organization to develop internal repairs PMA (Parts Manufacturer Approval) is approval granted by the FAA to a non-oem manufacturer of aircraft parts Two types of PMA: 1. Licensed 2. Competitive Lower Perceived Risk Higher Source: ICF analysis 24 24

In 2015, operators spent over $32B on OEM new parts and an additional $13B on alternatives $35B $30B $25B 2015 OEM New Material Demand vs. Alternatives ~ $32.4B the OEM s increasingly tight grip on the aftermarket means Delta s spares costs double about every seven years. Without TechOps parting-out engines to bolster spares and coming up with other alternatives to OEM-supplied support, that increase could be even steeper $20B $15B $10B 41% ~ $13.4B $2.2B $3.9B PMA ($0.54B) DER Repairs Surplus We re pretty good at sourcing outside the OEMs and we re always working to develop those alternatives. - Richard Anderson CEO Delta Air Lines Keynote Speech, MRO Americas April 2013 $5B $0B OEM new $6.8B Alternatives OEM Manual Repairs Source: ICF analysis 26 26

Surplus material usage has risen sharply over the past few years, driven by tangible cost savings and minimal perceived risk % OEM List 120 100 80 60 Typical Material Price Bands, By Part Type OEM Catalogue List Price 40 Surplus parts have increased the demand for component DER because the unserviceable surplus parts must repaired. The biggest customer for DER is ourselves. - Major PMA / DER Supplier 20 0 OEM New New Used Serviceable As Removed / Surplus Surplus Unserviceable PMA Lower Perceived Risk Higher Source: ICF analysis 29 29
Numerous regional factors influence operator PMA consumption to include: Virtually every major carrier leverages PMA parts as an OEM alternative Estimated PMA Demand by Major Region Fleet age Mix of lease vs owned aircraft 46-56% 28-38% Technical capability & experience Airline procurement historical practices and culture 4-7% 5-8% 12-18% Source: ICF analysis 30 30
In Summary In order to control and reduce material spend, airlines must have a comprehensive OEM alternative strategy PMA parts, DER repairs, and surplus material are valuable material sourcing solutions that drive tangible cost savings and improve part availability Safety concerns with regards to OEM alternative material usage have demonstrated to be meritless; yet clearly perceptions of risk remain As long as certain airlines continue to have restrictive PMA policies, Lessors will continue to include conservative language in their lease agreements Continued education is the only solution 31 31
