The term of the proposed Lease Agreement between the United States Air Force (Lessor) and the contractor (Lessee) shall not exceed two (2) years, with the lease of individual aircraft under the Lease Agreement not to exceed six (6) months. A fixed daily rental charge, and variable charges based on flight time, will be paid by the Lessee to the Lessor for all flights performed within the United States for the purposes listed above. These fees shall include charges for depreciation and interest of leased C-130J aircraft, as well as costs associated with the upkeep of the aircraft's airframe, engnines, and major aircraft systems. During the term of the Lease Agreement, the Lessee shall be responsible for all direct costs relating to leased C-130J aircraft, including consumable supplies, aviation fuel, and Lessee labor costs associated with support and maintenance of the leased aircraft. The Lessee shall assume liability for charges that may be lawfully imposed on the Lessee by agencies of the United States Government, or foreign governments and their taxing authorities, for certification and registration of leased property and payment of any applicable and lawful taxes or other charges. The Lessee shall be responsible for maintaining any C-130J aircraft leased under the Lease Agreement in a safe and serviceable condition in accordance with approved procedures that meet or exceed current USAF-approved Technical Orders. The Lessee must also affirm that it has implemented, and has in place, proper procedures and facilities to ensure the safe and proper operation and storage of leased aircraft. The Lessee shall maintain adequate property control records, and shall maintain aircraft records in accordance with the Air Force Technical Order 781 Series. The Lessee shall be solely and fully liable for any damage to, or loss or destruction of, the leased aircraft resulting from any cause whatsoever during the Lessee+s possession of the leased aircraft. The Lessee must also agree to release the United States Government from all damages (including consequential damages), and defend, indemnify, and hold the United States Government, its agents, officers, and employees harmless from any and all loss and liability, whether in tort or in contract, that might arise in connection with the lease because of injury or death of personnel of the Lessor, the Lessee, or third parties, and damage to or destruction of property of the Lessee or third parties, and leased property, support equipment, or other property of the United States Government. The Lessee must possess and maintain adequate insurance to cover all such liabilities, and proof of adequate insurance (or proof of the Lessee+s ability to insure against loss) shall be provided to the Lessor. Accident investigations must be done in accordance with AFI 91-204 procedures, with investigative authority to remain with the USAF. The Lessee shall conform to applicable health and safety standards and safety rules, and make such additional precautions as the Government may require to safety and accident prevention purposes. The Lessee shall secure from the Department of State or other responsible United States agency any export licenses or other approvals required under the Arms Export Control Act or other United States laws or regulations prior to any use of the leased property in connection with the provision of articles or services to a foreign Lessor or other foreign persons. The Lessee agrees that its logs, reports and records relating to the leased Aircraft shall at all reasonable times be subject to inspection and review by any authorized representative of the USAF, and shall make such reports to the Lessor regarding the leased property as may be required by the Government.
