Definitions:
The following terms are as defined in the JV Agreement and are subject to the terms of the JV
Agreement as amended by the Companies.
•
Company(ies) means Delta Air Lines, Inc, Société Air France, and/or KLM N.V.
•
EASK means, with respect to one or both participants on one or more Joint Venture Routes,
Equivalent Available Seat Kilometers of such participant or participants on such Joint Venture
Route(s), which shall equal the sum of Equivalent Cabin Seats and Equivalent Cargo Seats
[offered on all the aircrafts of such Participant or Participants on such Joint Venture Route(s), as
applicable], multiplied by the nonstop distance in kilometers between the scheduled city-pair for
such Joint Venture Route(s), as follows:
EASK = (Equivalent Cabin Seats + Equivalent Cargo Seats) x Km
Equivalent Cabin Seats = Main Deck Surface / Seat Density
Equivalent Cargo Seats = Net Cargo Payload x Cargo Factor
Yes, they should be included by definition. No, have not figured how they skew the production balance. Georgetq might have a better idea.
