ARTICLE I
SCOPE
This Implementing Arrangement describes the cooperative
scientific, technical, engineering, and administrative
activities to be undertaken by the American Institute in Taiwan
(AIT) through its designated representative, the University
Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), to develop and
implement technical enhancements to the Advanced Operational
Aviation Weather System (AOAWS). The AOAWS is a cooperative
effort between the Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative
Office in the United States (TECRO), through its designated
representative, the Civil Aeronautics Administration (CAA), of
the Ministry of Transportation and Communications (MOTC) and
AIT, through its designated representative, UCAR. This
Implementing Arrangement pertains to the Agreement (dated
February 1998, hereinafter referred to as the Agreement) between
TECRO and AIT for Technical Cooperation Associated with the
Establishment of Advanced Operational Aviation Weather Systems
and is a part of the Agreement.

ARTICLE II
AUTHORIZATION
The activities described in this Implementing Arrangement will
be carried out under the general terms and conditions
established by the Agreement.

ARTICLE III
SERVICES
The AOAWS provides TECRO ’ s designated representative, CAA,
the airlines, and the flying public on Taiwan with
state-of-the-art aviation weather technology for: 1) hazardous
weather phenomena that affect aviation operations, 2) weather
phenomena that affect airspace capacity and safety at major
airports, and 3) weather phenomena that affect overall
efficiency of aviation operations. The AOAWS is a complex system
utilizing several advanced weather sensing subsystems,
integrated communications, advanced software, advanced numerical
weather forecast models, and advanced display technology
developed for TECRO ’ s designated representative, CAA, and
airline end users by AIT ’ s designated representative, UCAR.
The ongoing success of the AOAWS is dependent on research,
development, technical cooperation, and technology transfer
between the designated representatives of TECRO and AIT in
accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement, this
Implementing Arrangement, and future Implementing Arrangements
to be agreed upon by the parties involved.
The technical cooperation to be undertaken under the auspices of
this Implementing Arrangement is defined by the tasks described
in the attached Statement of Work. Task details, including
specific work to be performed, performance period, and the
estimated cost for each task are contained in the attached
Statement of Work.

ARTICLE IV
FINANCIAL PROVISIONS
TECRO will reimburse AIT, and AIT will make necessary
arrangements to transfer such funds to its designated
representative, UCAR, for all costs incurred in association with
this Implementing Arrangement. UCAR ’ s costs for this
technical cooperation will be assessed on the basis of actual
labor time and materials utilized fully loaded, plus a 3%
management fee. TECRO has agreed that fifty percent (50%) of the
estimated cost for the tasks associated with this Implementing
Arrangement will be transferred in advance to AIT and that the
remaining costs will be reimbursed within 30 days after
acceptance of the deliverables by TECRO and its designated
representative, CAA. It is agreed and understood that the
payment will be provided in US$. The upper limit for
expenditures incurred under this Implementing Arrangement is
US$946,000. UCAR will submit an invoice to AIT for transmittal
to TECRO for payment at the beginning of the contract period and
at the end of the contract period listing actual costs incurred.
If this Implementing Arrangement has been approved by both
parties and the budget is
subsequently reduced, TECRO ’ s designated representative, CAA,
and AIT ’ s designated representative, UCAR, will negotiate an
adjustment to the scope of work to the satisfaction of both
parties. If this Implementing Arrangement has been approved by
both parties and the budget is subsequently not approved by the
Legislative Yuan, TECRO ’ s designated representative, CAA,
will reimburse AIT ’ s designated representative, UCAR, via the
AIT-TECRO channel for all costs incurred up to the date of the
