Artikel 4

1. The Aeronautical Authority of each Contracting Party shall, with respect to an Airline designated by the other Contracting Party, have the right to revoke an operating authorization or to suspend the exercise of the rights specified in Article 2 of this Agreement, or to impose conditions, temporarily or permanently, as it may deem necessary on the exercise of those rights:
a. in the case of failure by that Airline to comply with the laws and regulations normally and reasonably applied by the Aeronautical Authority of the Contracting Party granting those rights in conformity with the Convention; or
b. in case the Airline otherwise fails to operate in accordance with the conditions prescribed under this Agreement; or
c. in any case where, subject to any special agreement between the Contracting Parties, it is not satisfied that the substantial ownership and effective control of that Airline are vested in the Contracting Party designating the Airline or its nationals; or
d. in accordance with paragraph 6 of Article 10 of this Agreement; or
e. in the case of failure by the other Contracting Party to take appropriate action to improve safety in accordance with paragraph 2 of Article 10 of this Agreement; or
f. in any case where the other Contracting Party fails to comply with any decision or stipulation arising from the application of Article 19 of this Agreement.
2. Unless immediate revocation, suspension or imposition of the conditions mentioned in paragraph 1 of this Article is essential to prevent further infringements of laws or regulations, such right shall be exercised only after consultation with the Aeronautical Authority of the other Contracting Party, as provided for in Article 18 of this Agreement.
3. In the event of action by one Contracting Party under this Article, the rights of the other Contracting Party under Article 19 of this Agreement shall not be prejudiced.
