Those seats from France.

PARIS, Sept 25 (Reuters) - French aircraft cabin and systems maker Zodiac said on Friday that American Airlines had filed a petition in a Texas court seeking "a judicial determination of the contractual situation" between them over business class seats, which may lead to the sharing of this activity with another supplier.
 
Zodiac Seats' legal advisors are reviewing the filing and in the meantime the teams are in discussion with American Airlines to "assess the possibility of a negotiated issue", Zodiac said in a statement.
 
"Zodiac Seats regrets this situation, especially since the revised delivery agenda established a few months ago was met," it added.
Zodiac Aerospace made the statement after its shares fell on Friday after media reports and an industry blog said the French company had lost a contract with American Airlines, one of its main clients.

Actually, according to Jetwire, another vendor has not been found yet.  Here's what was posted last Thursday...
 
[SIZE=13.5pt]"Seat change[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Our Business Class customers want lie-flat seats, and we’re delivering. But we need to be able to deliver that product on time. Our current order for lie-flat seats for the Boeing 787-9 and some of our 777-200 retrofits is far behind schedule. As a result, we’ve canceled our orders with the seat manufacturer, Zodiac, and will look for a vendor to complete this order. For more information about the change, check out the article on Jetnet."[/SIZE]
