This Agreement is made and entered into as of the 10 th day of March 2009 by and between Morgan Stanley Management Services II, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (“MSMSII”), and John J. Mack (“User”).

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, MSMSII is the operator of the aircraft listed on Schedule A hereto, as amended from time to time (collectively, the “Aircraft”); and

WHEREAS, MSMSII has the right and lawful authority to enter into time sharing agreements, as provided in §91.501 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (“FARs”); and

WHEREAS, from time to time, User may desire to lease the Aircraft, with flight crew, from MSMSII for User’s personal travel at User’s discretion on a time-sharing basis in accordance with §91.501 of the FARs; and

WHEREAS, MSMSII has agreed to make the Aircraft, with flight crew, available to User for User’s personal travel on a non-exclusive time-sharing basis in accordance with §91.501 of the FARs; and

WHEREAS, this Agreement sets forth the understanding of the parties as to the terms under which MSMSII will provide User with the use, on a non-exclusive time-sharing basis, of the Aircraft.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein set forth, the parties agree as follows:

1. Provision of Aircraft and Crew . Subject to Aircraft availability, MSMSII agrees to provide the Aircraft and flight crew to User on a time sharing basis in accordance with the provisions of §§ 91.501(b)(6), 91.501(c)(1) and 91.501(d) of the FARs. MSMSII shall provide, at its sole expense, qualified flight crew for all flight operations under this Agreement. If MSMSII is no longer the operator of any of the Aircraft, Schedule A shall be amended to delete any reference to such Aircraft and this Agreement shall be terminated as to such Aircraft but shall remain in full force and effect with respect to each of the other Aircraft, if any. No such termination shall affect any of the rights and obligations of the parties accrued or incurred prior to such termination. If MSMSII becomes the operator of any aircraft not listed on Schedule A hereto, Schedule A shall be modified to include such Aircraft, and thereafter this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect with respect to such Aircraft and each of the other Aircraft, if any.

2. Term . The term of this Agreement (the “Term”) shall commence on the date hereof and shall continue until terminated by either party on written notice to the other party. This Agreement shall terminate immediately in the event that User is no longer an employee or director of Morgan Stanley or any of its affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any provisions directly or indirectly related to User’s payment obligations for flights completed prior to the date of termination shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

3. Reimbursement of Expenses . For each flight conducted under this Agreement, User shall pay MSMSII an amount (as determined by MSMSII) equal to the actual expenses of operating such flight, not to exceed the sum of the following expenses as permitted pursuant to FAR 91.501(d):

 

 

(a)

Fuel, oil, lubricants, and other additives;

4. Invoicing and Payment . All payments to be made to MSMSII by User hereunder shall be paid in the manner set forth in this Section 4. MSMSII will pay, or cause to be paid, all expenses related to the operation of the Aircraft hereunder in the ordinary course. As soon as practicable after the end of each calendar quarter during the Term, MSMSII shall provide or cause to be provided to User an invoice showing all personal use of the Aircraft by User pursuant to this Agreement during that quarter and a complete accounting detailing all amounts payable by User pursuant to Section 3 for that quarter (plus applicable domestic or international air transportation excise taxes, and any other fees, taxes or charges assessed on passengers by and remitted to a government agency or airport authority). User shall pay all amounts due under the invoice not later than 30 days after receipt thereof. In the event MSMSII has not received supplier invoices for reimbursable charges relating to such flight prior to such invoicing, MSMSII shall issue supplemental invoice(s) for such charge(s) to User, and User shall pay each supplemental invoice within 30 days after receipt thereof.

5. Flight Requests . User will provide the designated representatives of MSMSII with flight requests for User’s personal travel to be undertaken pursuant to this Agreement and proposed flight schedules as far in advance of User’s desired departure as possible and in accordance with all reasonable policies established by MSMSII. Flight requests shall be in a form, whether oral or written, mutually convenient to and agreed upon by the parties. MSMSII shall have sole and exclusive authority over the scheduling of the Aircraft. MSMSII shall not be liable to User or any other person for loss, injury, or damage occasioned by the delay or failure to furnish the Aircraft and crew pursuant to this Agreement for any reason. In addition to requested schedules and departure times, User shall provide at least the following information for each proposed flight reasonably in advance of the desired departure time as required by MSMSII or its flight crew:

 

 

(a)

departure point;

 

 

(b)

destination;

 

 

(c)

date and time of flight;

 

 

(d)

number and identity of anticipated passengers;

 

 

(e)

nature and extent of luggage and/or cargo expected to be carried;

 

 

(f)

date and time of return flight, if any; and

 

 

(g)

any other information concerning the proposed flight that may be pertinent to or required by MSMSII or its flight crew.

Subject to Aircraft and crew availability, MSMSII shall use its good faith efforts, consistent with its approved policies, to accommodate User’s needs, avoid conflicts in scheduling and enable User to enjoy the benefits of this Agreement. Although every good faith effort shall be made to avoid its occurrence, any flights scheduled under this Agreement are subject to cancellation by either party without incurring liability to the other party. In the event of a cancellation, the canceling party shall provide the maximum notice reasonably practicable.

User specifically agrees that the flight crew shall have final and complete authority to delay or cancel any flight for any reason or condition that in the sole judgment of the pilot-in-command could compromise the safety of the flight, and to take any other action that in the sole judgment of the pilot-in-command is necessitated by considerations of safety. No such action of the pilot-in-command shall create or support any liability to User or any other person for loss, injury, damage or delay. MSMSII’s operation of the Aircraft hereunder shall be strictly within the guidelines and policies established by MSMSII and FAR Part 91.
