Nothing in paragraph 1 of this Article shall be deemed to confer on a designated airline of one Contracting Party the privilege of taking on, in the territory of the other Contracting Party, passengers, cargo, and mail carried for remuneration or hire and destined for another point in the territory of that Contracting Party. 3. The airlines of each Contracting Party, other than those designated under Article 3 of this Agreement, shall also enjoy the rights specified in paragraph 1 (a) and (b) of this Article. 1. Each Contracting Party shall have the right to designate in writing to the other Contracting Party one or more airlines for the purpose of operating air services on the specified routes and to withdraw or alter such designations. 2.

Each Contracting Party shall have the right to refuse to grant the operating authorization referred to in paragraph 2 of this Article, or to impose such conditions, as it may deem necessary, on the exercise by a designated airline of the rights specified in Article 2, in any case where it is not satisfied that effective control of that airline is maintained in the territory of the other Contracting Party and that the airline is incorporated and has its principal place of business in the said territory. 5. When an airline has been so designated and authorized, it may begin to operate air services on the specified routes provided that the airline complies with all applicable provisions of this Agreement. 1.

In this case consultations shall be held within thirty

(30)days from the date the other Contracting Party receives such request in writing. 1. A Contracting Party shall not impose on a designated airline of the other Contracting Party user charges higher than those imposed on its own airlines operating between the territories of the Contracting Parties.

With the exception of charges based on the cost of the service provided, the following items shall also be exempt from duties, fees and charges referred to in paragraph 1 of this Article: (a) aircraft stores, introduced into or supplied in the territory of a Contracting Party, and taken on board, within reasonable limits, for use on outbound aircraft engaged in an international air service of a designated airline of the other Contracting Party; (b) spare parts, including engines, introduced into the territory of a Contracting Party for the maintenance or repair of aircraft used in an international air service of a designated airline of the other Contracting Party; and (c) fuel, lubricants and consumable technical supplies introduced into or supplied in the territory of a Contracting Party for use in an aircraft engaged in an international air service of a designated airline of the other Contracting Party, even when these supplies are to be used on a part of the journey performed over the territory of the Contracting Party in which they are taken on board. 3. Equipment and supplies referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2 of this Article may be required to be kept under the supervision or control of the appropriate authorities. 4.

Neither Contracting Party may grant any preference to its own airline with regard to designated airlines of the other Contracting Party in the application of the laws and regulations provided for in this Article. 1. There shall be fair and equal opportunity for the designated airlines of each Contracting Party to operate air services on any route specified in the Annex to this Agreement. 2. In the operation of the air services on the routes specified in the Annex to this Agreement the designated airlines of each Contracting Party shall take into account the interests of the designated airlines of the other Contracting Party so as not to affect unduly the air services which the latter airlines operate. 3. The air services provided by a designated airline shall retain as their primary objective the provision of capacity adequate to current and reasonably anticipated requirements for the carriage of passengers, mail and cargo, coming from or destined for the territory of the Contracting Party designating the airline. The aeronautical authorities of either Contracting Party shall, on request, provide to the aeronautical authorities of the other Contracting Party such periodic or other statements of statistics, as may be reasonably required for the purpose of reviewing market developments. Such statements shall include all information required to determine the amount of traffic carried by the airlines on the agreed services. 1. Tariffs shall be established at reasonable levels, due regard being paid to all relevant factors including costs of operation, reasonable return on investment, characteristics of service, the interests of users and the tariffs of other airlines. 2. Neither of the aeronautical authorities will require their designated airlines to consult other airlines before filing tariffs for approval, nor will they prevent such consultations. 3. Any tariff filed in accordance with the provisions of this Article may be approved at any time by the aeronautical authorities of both Contracting Parties (double approval principle). Filings of tariffs are to be received by the aeronautical authorities at least 14 days before their proposed date of effectiveness. This time limit may be reduced, subject to the consent of the said authorities. 4. Designated airlines are required to file a proposed tariff for carriage between the territory of the Contracting Parties with the aeronautical authorities of both Contracting Parties, in such a form as each of the aeronautical authorities may require. The tariff in question will be treated as having been approved unless within 14 days after the date of receipt of filing the aeronautical authorities of one of the Contracting Parties have served written notice of disapproval of the proposed tariff on the aeronautical authorities of the other Contracting Party. 5. In approving tariffs, the aeronautical authorities of a Contracting Party may attach to their approval such expiry dates as they consider appropriate. Where a tariff has an expiry date, it shall remain in force until the due expiry date, unless withdrawn by the airline or airlines concerned or unless a replacement tariff is filed and approved prior to the expiry date. 6. Designated airlines have the right to match the approved tariffs of any airline between the same points on routes between the territories of the Parties. A matching tariff in accordance with this paragraph shall be filed for information purposes not later than its date of effectiveness with the aeronautical authorities of both Contracting Parties. 7. The aeronautical authorities of either Contracting Party may, at any time, request consultations with the aeronautical authorities of the other Contracting Party on the application of the provisions of this article. Such consultations shall be held within 30 days from receipt of the request. Each designated airline shall have the right to convert and remit to its country on demand local revenues in excess of sums locally disbursed. Conversion and remittance shall be permitted without restrictions at the rate of exchange applicable to current transactions which is in effect at the time such revenues are presented for conversion and remittance, and shall not be subject to any charges except those normally made by banks for carrying out such conversion and remittance. If payments between the Contracting Parties are regulated by a special agreement, this special agreement shall apply. 1. Each Contracting Party grants to a designated airline of the other Contracting Party, on the basis of reciprocity, the right to maintain in its territory representatives including office, administrative, commercial and technical personnel as may be necessary for the requirements of the designated airline concerned. 2. The designated airlines of a Contracting Party shall have the right to engage in the sale of air transportation in the territory of the other Contracting Party, either directly or through agents. A Contracting Party shall not restrict the right of the designated airlines of the other Contracting Party to sell, and of any person to purchase, such transportation in local or in any freely convertible currency. Nor shall the Contracting Parties restrict the right of the designated airlines to pay in local or in any freely convertible currency their locally incurred costs. 1. Airlines designated by a Contracting Party shall submit their traffic programmes for approval to the aeronautical authorities of the other Contracting Party at least thirty

(30)days prior to the beginning of the operation. The programme shall include in particular the timetables, the frequency of the services and the types of aircraft to be used. 2. Any alteration made in an approved air traffic programme at a later date shall also be submitted for approval. For supplementary flights which the designated airline of one Contracting Party wishes to operate on the agreed services outside the approved time-table it has to request prior permission from the aeronautical authorities of the other Contracting Party. Such request shall normally be submitted at least two working-days before operating such flights. 1. Each Contracting Party reaffirms that its obligation to the other Contracting Party to protect the security of civil aviation against unlawful interference forms an integral part of this Agreement. Each Contracting Party shall in particular act in conformity with the aviation security provisions of the Convention on Offences and Certain Other Acts Committed on Board Aircraft, signed at Tokyo on 14 September 1963, the Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Seizure of Aircraft, signed at the Hague on 16 December 1970, the Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Acts against the Safety of Civil Aviation, signed at Montreal on 23 September 1971, and Protocol for the Suppression of Unlawful Acts of Violence at Airports Serving International Civil Aviation, Supplementary to the Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Acts against the Safety of Civil Aviation, done at Montreal on 23 September 1971, signed at Montreal on 24 February 1988. 2. Each Contracting Party shall be provided at its request with all necessary assistance by the other Contracting Party to prevent acts of unlawful seizure of civil aircraft and other unlawful acts against the safety of such aircraft, their passengers and crew, airports and air navigation facilities, and any other threat to the security of civil aviation. 3. The Contracting Parties shall, in their mutual relations, act in conformity with the applicable aviation security provisions established by the International Civil Aviation Organization and designated as Annexes to the Convention on International Civil Aviation, opened for signature at Chicago on 7 December 1944. Each Contracting Party shall require that operators of aircraft of its registry or operators of aircraft having their principal place of business or permanent residence in its territory and the operators of airports in its territory act in conformity with such aviation security provisions. 4. Each Contracting Party agrees that operators of aircraft may be required to observe the aviation security provisions referred to in paragraph 3 of this Article required by the other Contracting Party for entry into, departure from, or while within the territory of that other Contracting Party. Each Contracting Party shall ensure that adequate measures are effectively applied within its territory to protect the aircraft and to inspect passengers, crew, carry-on items, baggage, cargo, mail and aircraft stores prior to and during boarding or loading. Each Contracting Party shall also give sympathetic consideration to any request from the other Contracting Party for reasonable special security measures to meet a particular threat. 5. When an incident or threat of an incident of unlawful seizure of civil aircraft or other unlawful acts against the safety of such aircraft, their passengers and crew, airport or air navigation facilities occurs, each Contracting Party shall assist the other Contracting Party by facilitating communications and other appropriate measures intended to terminate rapidly and safely such incident or threat thereof. Either Contracting Party may at any time request consultations on the implementation, interpretation or amendment to this Agreement or compliance with the Agreement. Such consultations, which may be between aeronautical authorities, shall begin within a period of sixty

(60)days from the date the other Contracting Party receives a written request, unless otherwise agreed by the Contracting Parties. 1. Any amendments to this Agreement agreed by the Contracting Parties shall come into force when approved in accordance with the constitutional requirements of both Contracting Parties and as confirmed by an exchange of diplomatic notes. 2. Amendments to the Annex to this Agreement may be made by direct agreement between the competent aeronautical authorities of the Contracting Parties. 3. In the event of the conclusion of any general multilateral convention concerning air transport by which both Contracting parties become bound, the present Agreement shall be deemed to be modified so as to conform with the provisions of such convention. 1. If any dispute arises between the Contracting Parties relating to the interpretation or application of this Agreement, the Contracting Parties shall in the first place endeavour to settle it by negotiation. 2. If the Contracting Parties fail to reach a settlement of the dispute by negotiation, they may agree to refer the dispute for decision to an arbitrator, or the dispute may at the request of either Contracting Party be submitted for decision to a tribunal of three arbitrators, one to be nominated by each Contracting Party and the third to be appointed by the two so nominated. Each of the Contracting Parties shall nominate an arbitrator within a period of sixty

(60)days from the date of receipt by either Contracting Party from the other of a notice through diplomatic channels requesting arbitration of the dispute and the third arbitrator shall be appointed within a further period of thirty

(30)days. If either of the Contracting Parties fails to nominate an arbitrator within the period specified, or if the third arbitrator is not appointed within the period specified, the President of the Council of the International Civil Aviation Organization may be requested by either Contracting Party to appoint an arbitrator or arbitrators as the case requires. In all cases, the third arbitrator shall be a national of a third State, shall act as president of the tribunal and shall determine the place where the arbitration will be held. If the President considers that he is a national of a State which cannot be regarded as neutral in relation to the dispute, the most Senior Vice-President who is not disqualified on that ground shall make the appointment. The arbitral tribunal shall determine its own rules of procedure and shall reach its decision by a majority of votes. 3. Each Contracting Party shall bear the costs of the arbitrator it has nominated as well as of its representation in the arbitral proceeding; the costs of the president and any other costs shall be born in equal parts by the Contracting Parties. 4. The Contracting Parties undertake to comply with any decision given under paragraph 2 of this Article. 5. If and as long as either Contracting Party fails to comply with any decision under paragraph 2 of this Article, the other Contracting Party may limit, withhold or revoke any rights or privileges which it has granted by virtue of this Agreement to the Contracting Party in default or to a designated airline in default. This Agreement and its Annex and any subsequent amendment thereto shall be registered with the International Civil Aviation Organization. Either Contracting Party may at any time give notice to the other Contracting Party of its decision to terminate this Agreement; such notice shall be simultaneously communicated to the International Civil Aviation Organization. In such case the Agreement shall terminate at the end of the traffic programme period which is effective twelve

(12)months after the date of receipt of the notice by the other Contracting Party, unless the notice to terminate is withdrawn by agreement before the expiry of this period. In the absence of acknowledgement of receipt by the other Contracting Party, notice shall be deemed to have been received fourteen

(14)days after the receipt of the notice by the International Civil Aviation Organization. This Agreement will enter into force when the Contracting Parties have notified each other by exchange of notes that the constitutional requirements of the Contracting Parties for the entering into force of this Agreement have been complied with. In witness whereof, the undersigned, being duly authorized by their respective Governments, have signed this Agreement. Done at Stockholm on 5 October 1999 in duplicate in the English language.
