Any person shall be free to purchase such transportation in currencies accepted for sale by that airline.
**2.** Each Contracting Party grants to the designated airlines of the other Contracting Party the right of free transfer of the excess of receipts over expenditures earned by the designated airline in its territory. Such transfers shall be effected on the basis of the official exchange rates for current payments, or where there are no official exchange rates, at the prevailing foreign exchange market rates for current payments, applicable on the day of the introduction of the request for transfer by the airlines designated by the other Contracting Party and shall not be subject to any charges except normal service charges collected by banks for such transactions.
