This one seems pretty objectionable to me, but maybe I'm not smart
enough to understand it fully:

1/7 1.4 In cases where one or more international routes have been
established by agreement between authorized operating agencies and
where traffic is diverted unilaterally by the authorized operating
agency of origin to an international route which has not been agreed
with the authorized operating agency of destination, the terminal
shares payable to the authorized operating agency of destination shall
be the same as would have been due to it had the traffic been routed
over the agreed primary route, and the transit costs are borne by the
authorized operating agency of origin, unless the authorized operating
agency of destination is prepared to agree to a different share.
1/8 1.5 In cases where traffic is routed via a transit point without
authorization and/or agreement to the transit share, the transit
authorized operating agency has the right to set the level of the
transit share to be included in the international accounts.





 or dangerous, if you are able to do so. I am open to new information.
No one else who actually reads the things can figure out what all the
brouhaha is about.
