Material Events Post 30 June 2009

Boeing Defence Australia has achieved good performance against the contractual schedule as rebaselined under the Deed of Settlement, Release and Amendment signed in April 2009. Introduction into service activities commenced in late August 2009 more than two months ahead of the rebaselined contractual schedule.

Signature of the Deed of Settlement, Release and Amendment in April 2009 provided a clear way ahead for completion of all prime contract work. As a result, Capability Development Group and DMO are working together to address the impacts of the delays in completion of the prime contract work on the mobile platform upgrade program
