SINGAPORE (Reuters) - Fedex Express, a subsidiary of the world's largest cargo firm FedEx Corp , has ordered 50 additional Boeing Co 767-300 freighters, the company said in a statement.

The deal, which includes options for another 50 767Fs, is worth $9.97 billion at list prices. Customers typically get an undisclosed discount off the list prices.

FEDEX (FDX.NY)aid the aircraft will be delivered over the fiscal years 2018-2023. The latest deal brings FedEx's firm orders for 767Fs to 106.
