Boeing Co. has agreed to pay $6.6 million in penalties to U.S. regulators after failing to comply with a 2015 agreement to improve its safety processes.

The Federal Aviation Administration on Thursday announced the penalties in a press release. The company agreed to pay $5.4 million to settle earlier cases brought against the company and another $1.21 million for two more recent cases, the agency said.
