If, after delivery of any information pursuant to clause (a) above, AerCap becomes aware of any material updates or developments that would reasonably be expected to impact GE’s Rule 3-09 significance calculations, AerCap shall deliver such updated information to GE as promptly as reasonably practicable.

(v) Upon reasonable request from AerCap (and in any event no more than once per calendar year), GE shall provide to AerCap, a schedule or statement setting forth its then-current Rule 3-09 significance calculations; provided that in no event shall such schedule or statement be required to disclose any financial information of any member of the GE Affiliated Group that is not publicly available at such time.

In that context, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Party irrevocably and unconditionally: (i) submits for itself and its property to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts with respect to any Dispute and for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, and agrees that all claims in respect of any Dispute shall be heard and determined in such courts and (ii) agrees that venue would be proper in such courts, and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have that any such court is an improper or inconvenient forum for the resolution of any Dispute.

Section 3.03 Waiver of Jury Trial. To the maximum extent permitted by Law, each Party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right to trial by jury in any forum in respect of any Dispute and covenants that neither it nor any of its Affiliates or Representatives will assert (whether as plaintiff, defendant or otherwise) any right to such trial by jury. Each Party certifies and acknowledges that (a) such Party has considered the implications of this waiver, (b) such Party makes this waiver voluntarily and (c) such waiver constitutes a material inducement upon which such Party is relying and will rely in entering into this Agreement.
