What options does Budget have to meet the goal of full compliance with the ADA for its shuttle systems?

les for which a solicitation for purchase or lease was made after August 25, 1990, for use at one of the Airport Facilities (whether currently or hereafter operated by Avis) and which have a capacity of over 16 passengers, including the driver, shall be readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities, including individuals who use wheelchairs. See 49 C.F.R. §§ 37.101 (a) and (b). Avis agrees to meet this goal by either removing or refurbishing all noncomplying vehicles currently part. of such shuttle systems. Avis further agrees that such removal and refurbishment shall be completed in accordance with the schedule set forth in the document entitled "Avis Shuttle Bus Listing" and dated 3/29/99, which is attached hereto as Exhibit A and hereby made a part of this Agreement. Following the date the shuttle system at any Airport Facility is brought into full compliance with the ADA, Avis may transfer one or more of the shuttle vehicles at that facility, as listed on Exhibit A, to other Airport Facilities so long as such transfer does not result in a reduction in the number of accessible vehicles at any Airport Facility.

• 1. With respect to the shuttle systems at all Airport Facilities acquired by Avis after the Effective Date of this Agreement, Avis hereby agrees that all such systems will be in full compliance with

the regulations governing the acquisition of shuttle vehicles for fixed route systems within two (2) years of the date of acquisition. Avis agrees to meet this goal by either removing or refurbishing all noncomplying vehicles currently part of such shuttle systems.

1. Avis further agrees that, on or before December 31, 2000, the shuttle systems at all Airport Facilities operated by Avis on the Effective Date of this Agreement will each contain at least one accessible shuttle vehicle, regardless of whether an accessible shuttle vehicle is required by the ADA or its implementing regulations. The shuttle system at Miami International Airport shall be exempt from the requirements set forth in this paragraph because a height-restricted tunnel along the shuttle route precludes the use of lift-equipped vehicles. Avis agrees that the deployment of such accessible vehicles shall be completed in accordance with the schedule attached hereto as Exhibit A. Avis further agrees that, within sixty (60) days of its acquisition of any new Airport Facility with a shuttle system, whether that system could be considered a fixed route or demand responsive system, the shuttle system at that facility shall contain at least one accessible shuttle vehicle regardless of whether an accessible shuttle vehicle would otherwise be required by the ADA or its implementing regulations. Avis agrees that from and after the date it is required by this paragraph to deploy an accessible vehicle in the fleet at a given Airport Facility, it will ensure that at least one accessible shuttle vehicle will be permanently deployed and fully operational at that location at all times.
