The Aircraft may be flown temporarily to any country in the world, provided that the Aircraft (a) shall at all times be based and predominantly used, operated and located in the continental United States; and (b) shall not be flown, operated, used or located in, to or over any such country or area (temporarily or otherwise) (i) that is excluded from the Required Coverages (or specifically not covered by such insurance), (ii) with which the United States does not maintain diplomatic relations per xxxxx://xxx.xxxxx.xxx/xxxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxx-xx-xxx-xxxxx/, (iii) if as a result, payment of any related claim under the Required Coverages is likely to be prohibited under any trade or other economic sanction or embargo by the United States, (iv) in violation of any of the Lease Documents or any Applicable Standards, (v) where, under the circumstances, an operator would reasonably expect to encounter a material risk of a confiscation, seizure or hostile action against, or incurrence of Material Damage to, the Aircraft or (vi) in a manner that causes it to be deemed to have been used or operated “predominantly” outside of the United States, as that phrase is used in Section 168(g)(1)(A) of the Code. Lessee shall adopt, implement and comply with all security measures required by any Applicable Standards, or that are reasonably necessary for the proper protection of the Aircraft (whether on the ground or in flight) against theft, vandalism, hijacking, destruction, bombing, terrorism or similar acts.

All maintenance procedures shall be performed by properly trained, licensed, and certified maintenance sources and personnel utilizing replacement parts approved by the FAA and the manufacturer of (as applicable) the Airframe, the Engine or any Part. Without limiting the foregoing, Lessee shall comply with all airworthiness directives by causing compliance to such bulletins and directives to be completed, as and when required thereby, through corrective modification in lieu of operating manual restrictions.

5.4 Additions, Alterations, Etc. Lessee shall make, or shall cause to be made, any improvement, change, addition, alteration or modification to the Aircraft that may at any time during the Term be required to comply with Sections 5.2 or 5.3 or any of the other provisions of this Lease or the other Lease Documents (“Required Alterations”). Lessee may install on the Aircraft any other additional accessory, device or equipment (i.e., elective voluntary additions, which are neither required hereby, nor otherwise required to render the Aircraft complete for its intended use by Lessee), but only if the same (A) will not cause Lessee to be in breach of any of the other provisions of this Lease or the other Lease Documents, (B) will not materially impair the originally intended function or use or diminish the value, of the Aircraft and (C) can be readily removed without causing material damage to the Aircraft (“Elective Additions”). Without limiting the foregoing, (1) Lessee shall repair all damage to the Aircraft resulting from the installation of any Required Alterations, and the installation and removal of any and all Elective Additions, in each such case, so as to restore the Aircraft to its condition prior to installation, assuming that it was in the condition required hereby, (2) all Required Alterations, and all other repairs, parts, replacements, mechanisms and devices added by Lessee or on its behalf, including (unless and until removed) all Elective Additions, shall immediately, without further act, become part of the Aircraft and subject to this Lease and the other Lease Documents (including Lessor’s Interest granted or otherwise created hereby and thereby); and title thereto shall immediately vest in Lessor, without any payment by, or any cost or expense to Lessor, and (3) except as expressly permitted or required above, Lessee shall not make any other improvement, change, addition, alteration or modification to the Aircraft.

5.5 Loaner Engines. In the event any Engine is damaged, being inspected, repaired or overhauled and provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lessee, at its option, may temporarily substitute another engine of the same make and model as the Engine being repaired or overhauled (any such substitute engine being hereinafter referred to as a “Loaner Engine”) during the period of such repair or overhaul, and provided further (a) installation of the Loaner Engine is performed by a maintenance facility certified by the FAA and the manufacturer with respect to an aircraft of this type, (b) the Loaner Engine is removed and the repaired or overhauled original Engine is reinstalled on the Airframe promptly upon completion of the repair or overhaul in accordance with the Engine Maintenance Program, or, if not then in effect, no later than the earlier of ninety (90) days after removal, or the expiration, cancellation or earlier termination of this Lease, and (c) the Loaner Engine is free and clear of any Lien that might impair Xxxxxx’s rights or interests in the Aircraft and is maintained in accordance herewith.

5.6 Aircraft Registration. Concurrently with its entering into this Lease, and at all times thereafter, Lessee shall remain solely responsible to cause the Aircraft to be effectively and otherwise validly registered in Lessor’s name on the Registry, and the currently assigned U.S. registration number to remain authorized for use by Lessor on the Aircraft, in each case, in accordance with the Registration Requirements; and without limiting the foregoing, or any other provision of this Lease, Lessee shall:

(a) cause a valid Registration Certificate to be maintained at all times within the Aircraft and without limiting the foregoing Lessee shall (i) notify Lessor immediately of any event or circumstance with respect to which the Registration Requirements require further action by Lessor, and (ii) comply with any and all of the Registration Requirements;

(b) with respect to any Defective Registration (and without waiving Lessee’s responsibility to avoid such circumstance), the Aircraft shall not be operated until authorized by the Registration Requirements, and Lessee shall (i) comply with the FARs and other Applicable Laws relating to such Defective Registration, and (ii) ground and store the Aircraft in accordance with terms of this Lease; and

(c) fully and timely cooperate with Lessor; pay or reimburse the Lessor upon its demand for all fees, charges, or other amounts payable or incurred in connection with any of the foregoing, and take any and all of the other actions contemplated herein, as and when required by the Registration Requirements or as otherwise requested by Lessor, including with respect to any Assignment or any other disposition contemplated in the Lease Documents.

Lessor agrees to provide its reasonable cooperation to Lessee with respect to Lessee’s compliance with the provisions of this Section 5.6; provided, however, with respect to any such Defective Registration, in no event will Lessor be deemed liable to any Lessee Party or any other Person as a result of any Defective Registration, whether by reason of Lessor’s failure to accurately complete or effectively file any such registration filing or otherwise, and without regard as to whether the same constitutes a breach by Lessor, Lessee or any other Person under this Lease or any other Lease Document; and without limiting the foregoing, (i) Lessee shall remain obligated to pay and perform all of its obligations in accordance with this Lease and the other Lease Documents, and (ii) Lessee agrees that it shall pay, indemnify, defend and hold each Indemnified Party harmless on an after-tax basis from and against any and all Claims in any way relating to or arising out of any Defective Registration, in accordance with the provisions of Section 8 hereof.

Except as permitted by this Lease, Lessee shall not sell, assign, enter into any Third Party Agreement, convey, mortgage, exchange or otherwise transfer or relinquish possession of (including by any seizure or other taking by any foreign or domestic Governmental Authority) or dispose of, or grant or otherwise create a Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) against, the Airframe, or any Engine or Part, related associated rights, international interests, prospective international interests, or any proceeds, or any of the other Collateral, nor shall it attempt, or suffer or permit, any of the foregoing. Lessee shall be permitted, however, to enter into Permitted Third Party Agreements and to deliver possession of the Airframe, or any Engine or Part to another Person for the purpose of complying with any of the other provisions of this Section 5, in each case, if and to the extent consistent with the provisions of the Lease Documents. Lessee will warrant and defend Lessor’s Interest in and to the Aircraft (including Lessor’s good and marketable title thereto) and any Collateral, and the validity, perfection and first priority of Lessor’s Interest in the Aircraft and any Collateral, against all other Liens, claims and demands whatsoever, except Permitted Liens; and without limiting the foregoing, Lessee will (a) not create, assume or suffer to exist any Liens on or with respect to the Aircraft or any Collateral, or Xxxxxx’s interest therein (other than Permitted Liens); and (b) promptly take such action as directed by Xxxxxx to duly discharge any such unpermitted Liens.

(v) No later than the effective date thereof Lessee shall comply with, and at all times thereafter remain in compliance with, any related requirements by Lessor, including (A) entering into, and causing any related Interested Third Parties to enter into, an Operating Consent, (B) causing Lessor to be covered by the Required Coverages (which, for the purposes hereof, may include insurance coverages obtained and maintained by an Interested Third Party, conforming to the insurance requirements herein and in any of the other Lease Documents), (C) entering into or delivering, or causing to be entered into and delivered, all such other documents, filings and assurances, making or causing to be made such filings and registrations, and taking or causing to be taken all such other actions, in each case as may be required by Lessor (and unless so directed by Lessor, neither make, nor permit to be made, any other filing or registration with respect thereto), and (D) paying or reimbursing Lessor for any related costs or expenses. Lessor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to (A) require reasonable evidence that any Interested Third Party satisfies the requirements provided herein, and (B) review any such Third Party Agreement, as from time to time supplemented and amended, to determine its conformity with the provisions hereof, but without assuming any responsibility with respect thereto.

(vi) Although certain of the duties and obligations of Lessee under the Lease Documents may be performed by one or more of the Interested Third Parties, (A) no such Permitted Third Party Agreement shall reduce any of Lessee’s obligations, or any of Lessor’s rights, under any of the Lease Documents, (B) all of Lessee’s obligations under the Lease Documents shall be and remain primary and continue in full force and effect as the obligations of a principal and not of a guarantor or surety, and (C) Lessor is not waiving the right to require full and timely performance of any such obligations in strict accordance with the provisions hereof and of the other Lease Documents. By way of clarification and not limitation, with respect to any provisions of this Lease or any of the other Lease Documents requiring Lessee to take or refrain from taking an action relating to the Aircraft or any Collateral, such provision may also be read to mean that Lessee shall cause the same to be done in accordance therewith, if at that time the Aircraft or such Collateral is in the possession or control of an Interested Third Party pursuant to a Permitted Third Party Agreement.

5.8 Return Requirements. Unless purchased by Xxxxxx, upon the expiration, cancellation, or other termination of this Lease, Lessee shall at its sole expense return the Aircraft to Lessor in accordance with, and otherwise pay, perform and comply with, all of the provisions of the Return Addendum (all of which are hereby incorporated herein), in each case as and when required hereby.

5.9 Maintenance Reserve.

(a) Lessee shall at all times cause an amount not less than the Maintenance Reserve Amount to be deposited in the Maintenance Reserve Account. To the extent that the amount on deposit in the Maintenance Reserve Account shall be less than the Maintenance Reserve Amount, Lessee shall deposit an amount equal to such deficiency within 10 days following written notice of such deficiency from Lessor.

(b) Lessee assigns and pledges to Lessor, and grants Lessor a security interest in, all of Xxxxxx’s right, title and interest in and to the Maintenance Reserve Account and all amounts held therein and all of Xxxxxx’s rights thereto as additional security for all of Xxxxxx’s obligations hereunder and under the other Lease Documents. Upon the request of Xxxxxx, Lessee shall take all action reasonably necessary to protect and preserve such security interests in favor of Xxxxxx. Lessee shall execute and deliver to Lessor any instrument Lessor shall reasonably request to further evidence the creation of or to perfect such pledge and security interest.

(c) If, at any time during the term of this Lease, Lessor reasonably determines that the Aircraft is not being maintained in accordance with the requirements of this Lease, or to prevent deterioration of the Aircraft, Lessor may enter onto the property where the Aircraft is located after reasonable notice during normal business hours and perform any and all work and labor necessary to maintain the Aircraft and to employ watchmen to protect the Aircraft from damage. Lessor is hereby authorized to disburse such sums from the Maintenance Reserve Account for payment of all amounts incurred under this subsection (c), including as a reimbursement to Lessor for amounts so expended from Xxxxxx’s own funds. Solely for this purpose Lessee constitutes and appoints Lessor its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution to undertake the maintenance of the Aircraft in the name of Lessee. Lessee empowers said attorney-in-fact as follows: (i) to use any funds in the Maintenance Reserve Fund for the purpose of making or completing the maintenance of the Aircraft; (ii) to make such additions, changes and corrections to the Aircraft as shall be necessary or desirable for the maintenance of the Aircraft; (iii) to employ such contractors, subcontractors, agents, architects and inspectors as shall be required for such purposes; (iv) to pay, settle or compromise all existing bills and claims which are or may become liens against the Aircraft, or as may be necessary or desirable for the maintenance of the Aircraft, or for the clearance of title; (v) to execute all applications and certificates in the name of Lessee which may be required by any of the contract documents; (vi) to prosecute and defend all actions or proceedings in connection with the maintenance of the Aircraft; and (vii) to do any and every act which Lessee might do in its own behalf to fulfill the terms of this Lease in connection with the maintenance of the Aircraft. It is further understood and agreed that this power of attorney, which shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest, cannot be revoked. Xxxxxx specifically agrees that all power granted to Lessor under this Section may be assigned to any successor or assign of Xxxxxx.

(d) Nothing in this Section shall make Lessor responsible for maintenance of the Aircraft, require Lessor to expend funds in addition to the Maintenance Reserve Amount for the maintenance of the Aircraft, obligate Lessor to proceed with maintenance of the Aircraft, or obligate Lessor to demand from Lessee additional sums for the maintenance of the Aircraft.

SECTION 6. LOSS OR DAMAGE.

6.1 Risk of Loss. As of the Acceptance Date, and at all times thereafter unless and until the Aircraft is either purchased by Lessee or returned to Lessor pursuant to the provisions of this Lease, Lessee shall bear the risk of any Event of Loss or other loss, theft, confiscation, taking, unavailability, damage or partial destruction of the Aircraft, and shall not be released from its obligations hereunder in the event of any damage or Event of Loss to the Aircraft or any part thereof. With respect to any repairable damage to the Aircraft, Lessee shall: (a) repair the same in accordance with all of the applicable provisions of this Lease (including as provided in Section 5.3); and (b) provide written notice to Lessor thereof if constituting Material Damage either concurrently with its report of same to the applicable Governmental Authority, or (if no such report is required) within ten (10) days of the occurrence of such damage; and together with any damage reports provided to the FAA or any other Governmental Authority, the insurer or Supplier, and any documents pertaining to the repair of such damage, including copies of work orders, and all invoices for related charges.

6.2 Loss of Aircraft. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Loss with respect to the Airframe or the Aircraft, Lessee shall notify Lessor within five (5) days of the date thereof. On the Casualty Payment Date, Lessee shall pay to Lessor any Rent then due, plus the Casualty Value of the Aircraft determined as of such Casualty Payment Date, together with interest at the Late Payment Rate for the period (if any) from the Casualty Payment Date through the date of payment. Upon making the applicable payment required hereby, Xxxxxx’s obligation to pay further Basic Rent for the Aircraft subsequent to such payment shall cease, but Lessee shall remain liable for, and pay as and when due, all Supplemental Rent.

6.3 Loss of an Engine. Upon an Event of Loss with respect to any Engine (as applicable, a “Lost Item”), but not the Airframe, Lessee shall give Lessor prompt written notice thereof, and within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such Event of Loss replace such Lost Item with a Permitted Replacement by complying with the provisions of this Section 6.3. Any engine or auxiliary power unit constituting a “Permitted Replacement” for a Lost Item shall (i) be of the same make and model number as the Lost Item, (ii) be free and clear of all Liens and (iii) have a value, utility and useful life at least equal to, and be in as good an operating condition as, the Lost Item, assuming such Lost Item was in the condition and repair required by the terms hereof immediately prior to the occurrence of such Event of Loss. Lessee, at its own cost and expense, shall (i) furnish Lessor with such documents to evidence such replacement, (ii) cause Lessor to have good and marketable title to the Permitted Replacement, and subject to the Lessor’s Interest under this Lease, and (iii) take such other actions as may be required by Lessor to cause the Lessor’s Interest in such Permitted Replacement to be validly created and have first priority, including as evidenced on the FAA Registry, the International Registry, and any other recording office. Each such Permitted Replacement shall, after such conveyance, be deemed an “Engine” and shall be deemed part of the same Aircraft as was the Lost Item replaced thereby. Upon full compliance by Lessee with the terms of this paragraph, Lessor will transfer to Lessee all of Lessor’s right, title and interest, if any, in and to such Lost Item, which transfer shall be “AS-IS, WHERE-IS”.

6.4 Credit for Loss Payments. If Lessor receives a payment under any of the Required Coverages, or from a Manufacturer or Governmental Authority, in connection with an Event of Loss of an Airframe or an Engine, and such payment is both unconditional and indefeasible, then provided no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and Lessee shall have complied with the provisions of Sections 6.2 or 6.3, as applicable, Lessor shall either (a) remit such proceeds to Lessee up to an amount equal to (i) the amount paid by Lessee to Lessor as the Casualty Value pursuant to Section 6.2, or (ii) the amount of the replacement costs actually incurred by Lessee with respect to any Permitted Replacement pursuant to Section 6.3, or (b) credit such proceeds against any amounts owed by Lessee pursuant to Section 6.2. Any excess insurance proceeds shall be retained by Lessor. If recoverable, Lessor shall be entitled to recover possession of the Aircraft and to any salvage value in excess of the Casualty Value paid to Lessor, but subject to the requirements of any third party insurance carrier in order to settle an insurance claim. Lessor shall not be under any duty to Lessee to pursue any claim against any Person in connection with an Event of Loss, but Lessee may do so at its own cost and expense and with Xxxxxx’s prior written consent.

SECTION 7. INSURANCE.

7.3 Additional Requirements. Lessee shall not self-insure (by deductible, premium adjustment, or risk retention arrangement of any kind) with respect to any of the risks required to be insured pursuant to this Section 7. Lessee agrees that it shall obtain and maintain such other insurance coverages, or cause adjustments to be made to the scope, amount or other aspects of the existing insurance coverages, promptly upon Lessor’s reasonable request, as and when Lessor deems such additional insurance coverages or modifications to be appropriate in light of any changes in Applicable Law, prudent industry practices, the insurance market, any Lessee Party’s anticipated use of the Aircraft or other pertinent circumstances. All of the coverages required herein shall be in full force and effect worldwide throughout any geographical areas to, in or over which the Aircraft is operated. All insurance proceeds payable under the requisite policies shall be payable in U.S. Dollars. At least ten (10) days prior to the policy expiration date for any Required Coverages, Lessee shall furnish to Lessor an insurance certificate or other evidence requested by Lessor of the renewal or replacement of any such coverages complying with the terms hereof, for a twelve (12) month or greater period commencing from and after such expiration date.

9.3 Liquidated Damages. Without limiting the generality of the provisions of Section 9.2: (a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lessor may, among other things, demand and recover from Lessee as liquidated damages (the “Liquidated Damages”) an amount calculated as the Casualty Value of the Aircraft (determined as of the next Basic Rent Date after the date of the occurrence of the subject Event of Default), together with all other Rent due hereunder as of such determination date, less a credit for any disposition proceeds, if applicable, pursuant to the application provisions of clause (b); except that, upon the commencement of any voluntary case under the federal bankruptcy code concerning Lessee, or other voluntary act involving Lessee of the type described in Section 9.2(e), Lessor’s right to demand and recover the liquidated damages payable pursuant to this Section 9.3 shall be automatically exercised, without any requirement of notice to Lessee or of any other act or declaration by Lessor, and the liquidated damages described therein shall be immediately due and payable. (b) If Lessor demands the liquidated damages pursuant to clause (a), and recovers and sells the Aircraft, any proceeds of such disposition by Lessor, to the extent received by Lessor in good and indefeasible funds, shall be applied by Lessor, (i) first, to pay all costs, charges and expenses, payable pursuant to Section 9.4, (ii) next, to pay to Lessor an amount equal to any unpaid Rent due and payable to Lessor, together with the liquidated damage amounts specified above, to the extent not previously paid, (iii) next, to pay to Lessor any interest accruing on the amounts covered by the preceding clauses, at the Late Payment Rate, from and after the date the same become due and payable pursuant to the terms hereof through the date of payment, (iv) next, to reimburse Lessee for such amounts to the extent paid by Lessee as liquidated damages pursuant hereto (up to the amount of the Casualty Value calculated as provided above), and (v) any amount remaining thereafter shall be retained by Lessor as owner of the Aircraft. (c) Lessee hereby acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the liquidated damages payable pursuant to this Section 9.3, (iv) are to be paid in lieu of future Basic Rent, (B) are (as of both the date hereof, and the Acceptance Date) reasonable in light of the anticipated harm arising by reason of an Event of Default, and (C) are not a penalty; (ii) the occurrence of any one or more of the Events of Default shall be deemed, for all purposes, to substantially impair the value to Lessor of the transactions contemplated under the Lease Documents; (iii) in the event that, notwithstanding the intent and express agreement of the parties, either the liquidated damages provision in this Section 9.3 is deemed non-compliant with applicable law, or circumstances cause it to fail of its essential purpose, Lessor may exercise any of the other remedies provided herein, or available under UCC Article 2A or other applicable law (including the right to demand and be paid any or all of (A) all then accrued and unpaid Rent, (B) the present value of all then unaccrued Basic Rent for the remaining Term, discounted at the Discount Rate, with an appropriate credit consistent with whether and how Lessor disposes of the Aircraft, and (C) any incidental or consequential damages, less expenses saved by Lessor in consequence of such Event of Default); and (iv) Lessor shall have no obligation to make any of the remittances to or apply any credits in favor of Xxxxxx that are contemplated in this Section 9.3 if Lessor has paid such amounts to any guarantor or other Person having a right of subrogation with respect to such amounts, or such guarantor or other Person has demanded the payment of such amount.

9.4 Costs, Etc. Lessee shall be liable for, and pay to Lessor upon demand, all costs, charges and expenses incurred by Lessor in enforcing or protecting its rights under this Lease or any other Lease Documents, whether by reason of any Default or Event of Default, or otherwise, including, (a) any expenses incurred by Lessor in connection with effecting performance on Xxxxxx’s behalf, together with interest thereon at the Late Payment Rate, until repaid, and (b) any other legal fees, disbursements, insurance, expert witness fees, consultant fees, repossession, Impositions, Lien removal, recovery, storage, inspection, appraisal, repair, costs of transportation, refurbishing, advertising and brokers’ fees, and other carrying costs and costs of sale, re-lease or other disposition of the Aircraft or any Collateral.

9.5 Acknowledgments, Waivers, Etc. Xxxxxx hereby acknowledges and agrees as follows: (a) None of the provisions of this Section 9, including any remedies set forth or referenced herein, is “manifestly unreasonable” for the purposes of the Cape Town Convention. (b) No right or remedy is exclusive, and each may be used successively and cumulatively and in addition to any other right or remedy referred to above or otherwise available to Lessor at law or in equity, including, such rights and/or remedies as are provided for in the Cape Town Convention or the UCC. (c) No express or implied waiver by Xxxxxx of any Default or Event of Default hereunder shall in any way be, or be construed to be, a waiver of any future or subsequent Default or Event of Default. (d) The failure or delay of Lessor in exercising any available rights or remedies upon the occurrence of any event shall not constitute a waiver of any such right or remedy upon the continuation or reoccurrence of any such contingencies or similar contingencies, and any single or partial exercise of any particular right by Lessor shall not exhaust the same or constitute a waiver of any other right provided for or otherwise referred to herein. (e) All remedies set forth herein shall survive the expiration, cancellation or other termination of this Lease for any reason whatsoever. (f) It hereby waives any rights under the UCC or the Cape Town Convention to cancel or repudiate this Lease or any of the other Lease Documents, to reject or revoke acceptance of the Aircraft or any component thereof, to suspend performance, and to recover from Lessor any general, special, incidental or consequential damages, for any reason whatsoever.

9.6 Power-of-Attorney. Lessee irrevocably appoints Lessor as its attorney-in-fact to act in Xxxxxx’s name and on its behalf to make, execute, deliver and file any instruments or documents (including any filings at the FAA), settle, adjust, receive payment, make claim or proof of loss, endorse Xxxxxx’s name on any checks, drafts or other instruments in payment of any insurance claims and to take any action as Lessor deems necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent of this Lease and the other Transaction Documents; provided, however, Xxxxxx agrees that it will not exercise this power unless a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. This appointment is coupled with an interest, is irrevocable and shall terminate only upon payment in full of the obligations set forth in this Lease or any other Lease Documents.

SECTION 10. NOTICES, REPORTS, FURTHER ASSURANCES AND INSPECTIONS.

10.1 Notices. Lessee shall give prompt written notice to Lessor of (a) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default; (b) the occurrence of any Event of Loss or event of which Lessee may be aware that could become an Event of Loss; (c) the commencement or threat of any material litigation or proceedings affecting Lessee or any material litigation or proceedings affecting the Aircraft or any Collateral, or the ability of Lessee to comply with its obligations under the Lease Documents; and (d) any dispute between Lessee or any Interested Third Party and any Governmental Authority or other party that involves Aircraft or any Collateral or that might materially interfere with the normal business operations of Lessee.

10.2 Financial Information. Lessee shall furnish to Lessor: (a) if requested by Lessor, within one hundred twenty (120) days of the close of each fiscal year of Lessee beginning with December 31, 2021, Lessee’s consolidated (and, if applicable, consolidating) balance sheet and statements of shareholders’ equity, cash flows and operations as of the end of and for such fiscal year all on a comparative basis with the prior fiscal year and prepared in accordance with GAAP, certified by a recognized firm of certified public accountants; (b) if requested by Lessor, within sixty (60) days of the close of each quarter of Lessee beginning with December 31, 2021, Xxxxxx’s interim monthly consolidated (and, if applicable, consolidating), balance sheet and statements of shareholders’ or member’s equity, cash flows and operations as of the end of and for such fiscal month, all on a comparative basis with the similar fiscal month of the previous year and prepared in accordance with GAAP, certified by the chief financial officer of Xxxxxx; provided, however, that Lessee shall be deemed to have complied with the foregoing requirements in clauses (a) and (b) if such entity files Forms 10-K and 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission that are publicly available within the time frames set forth above, and all such financial statements (or Forms 10-Q and 10-K) shall fairly present financial condition and the results of operations of the respective Person as of the date of and for the period covered by such statements; promptly, as soon as available, monthly bank statements reflecting Xxxxxx’s cash position; and (d) promptly, such additional financial and other information as Lessor may from time to time reasonably request; cause Guarantor to comply with the financial reporting requirements set forth in the Guaranty and promptly furnish to Lessor any such financial and other information regarding the Lessee or Guarantor or any of its affiliates as Lessor may from time to time reasonably request.

10.3 Further Assurances. Lessee shall, at its sole expense, promptly execute and deliver to Lessor such further instruments, and it authorizes Lessor to prepare and file, all UCC and FAA filings and other documents, make, cause to be made and/or consent to all registrations (including any discharges and subordinations, or as to the prospective or actual sale of, and any international interest in, the Engines) with the International Registry, and take such further action, as Lessor may from time to time reasonably request in order to further carry out the intent and purpose of the Lease Documents and to establish, protect and enforce the rights, interests, remedies and Liens (including the first priority thereof) created, or intended to be created, in favor of Lessor thereby.

10.4 Inspection. Once every twelve month period, Lessor shall have the right, but not the duty, to inspect the Aircraft, any component thereof and the Records, at any reasonable time and from time to time, wherever located, upon not less than forty-eight (48) hours prior written notice to Lessee; provided that such inspection shall not interfere with the operations of the Aircraft; except that no advance notice shall be necessary prior to any inspection conducted, and such inspection may be conducted at any time, after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default. Upon request of Lessor, Lessee promptly shall confirm to Lessor the location of the Aircraft and the Records and shall, at any reasonable time and from time to time, upon reasonable prior written notice to Lessee, make the Aircraft and the Records available to Lessor for inspection. Lessee shall be responsible for the cost of any inspection conducted after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, and shall pay Lessor such amount as additional Rent within ten (10) days of demand. If Lessee enrolls the Aircraft in a computerized maintenance program, Lessee shall provide Lessor full authorized access to such computerized maintenance program during the Term and upon return (which access may be “read-only”, but shall be provided at no cost to Lessor).

SECTION 11. MISCELLANEOUS.

11.1 Construction and Related Matters. All representations and warranties made in this Lease and in the other Transaction Documents shall survive the execution and delivery of this Lease, and the purchase and lease of the Aircraft pursuant to the Lease Documents. Without limiting any other provision of this Lease regarding the survival of Xxxxxx’s obligations hereunder or under any of the other Lease Documents, Xxxxxx’s obligation to pay Supplemental Rent, and any of its other obligations under this Section 11, shall survive the expiration, cancellation or other termination of this Lease. The headings of the Sections hereof are for convenience only, are not part of this Lease and shall not be deemed to affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions hereof. Time is of the essence in the payment and performance of all of Xxxxxx’s obligations under this Lease. Any provision of this Lease that may be determined to be prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective in such jurisdiction to the extent thereof without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Lease, which shall remain in full force and effect.

11.2 Notices. All communications and notices provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made (i) upon hand delivery, or (ii) upon delivery by an overnight delivery service, or (iii) when sent by telecopy (with customary confirmation of receipt of such telecopy) on the Business Day when sent or upon the next Business Day if sent on other than a Business Day.

11.3 Granting Clause. In order to secure the prompt and full payment and performance as and when due of any and all of the Obligations, now existing or hereafter created of any kind whatsoever, including all of the same under or relating to this Lease and the other Lease Documents (all of which Lessee agrees it shall pay and perform in accordance herewith and therewith), Lessee hereby grants, pledges and assigns to Lessor a first priority security interest, collateral assignment, international interest, and security assignment in, against, under and with respect to all of Xxxxxx’s right, title and interest in, to and under all of the following collateral, whether now existing or hereafter acquired (collectively, the “Collateral”): (i) (in the event that contrary to the intentions of the parties, a court determines that this Lease is not a “true” lease under applicable commercial law) the Aircraft, including the Airframe, the Engines and each of the Parts and the Records; (ii) this Lease, and any and all other present and future Transaction Documents, Third Party Agreements, or other present and future agreements of any kind whatsoever relating to the Aircraft or any part thereof; (iii) all rent, charter payments, reimbursements and other disbursements, remittances or other amounts payable with respect thereto, including all rent and other amounts constituting associated rights secured by or associated with the Airframe and Engines, together with any related international interests and prospective international interests; (iv) any collateral described in the other Lease Documents (including in any Operating Consent); and (v) all proceeds of the foregoing. Without limiting the foregoing, with respect to the Lessor’s Interest (whether created pursuant to the foregoing grant or otherwise), (A) Lessor shall have a validly registered and first priority international interest in the Airframe and in each Engine, (B) Lessee agrees that it shall perform and procure performance in accordance with any Third Party Agreement or other agreement or instrument giving rise to any associated rights that are or may become subjected to the Lessor’s Interest, and (C) the Lien granted to Lessor pursuant to this Section 11.3 shall survive the termination, cancellation or expiration of this Lease until such time as Lessee’s obligations under the Lease Documents are fully and indefeasibly discharged.

11.4 Transaction Expenses. Without limiting any other provision of this Lease, Xxxxxx agrees to be solely responsible for, and pay all of the following:

(a) Transaction Expenses. Lessee shall pay to Lessor upon demand all fees, costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of Lessor (“Transaction Expenses”) at any time in connection with (i) the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and enforcement of the Lease Documents and the collection of the Obligations (both before and after the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default), (ii) the creation, preservation and protection of the Collateral and the perfection, first priority and enforcement of Lessor’s Lien, or (iii) Xxxxxx’s exercise of any right granted under, or any amendment or other modification to any of, the Lease Documents. Such Transaction Expenses shall include, without limitation, appraisal and inspection fees, the fees and expenses of Aviation Counsel and of Lessor’s counsel, consultants and brokers, UCC, FAA, International Registry and other applicable title, interest and lien searches, and costs and expenses relating to recovery, repossession, storage, insurance, transportation, repair, refurbishment, advertising, sale and other dispositions of the Aircraft or of any Collateral. Lessee shall also pay all fees (including license, filing and registration fees), Impositions and other charges of whatever kind or nature that may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with (i) the execution, delivery, recording or performance of this Lease or any of the other Transaction Documents, or any modification thereof, and (ii) the filings, registrations and other undertakings relating thereto. In addition to the foregoing, Lessee shall pay to Lessor a documentation fee in the amount of $2,500.00.

(b) Lessor’s Performance. If any Lessee Party fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein or in the other Transaction Documents, including its obligations to keep the Aircraft and any Collateral free of Liens (other than the Permitted Liens), comply with Applicable Standards, or obtain the Required Coverages, Lessor shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to effect such performance or compliance, with such agreement. Any expenses of Lessor incurred in connection with effecting such performance or compliance, together with interest thereon at the Late Payment Rate from the date incurred until reimbursed, shall be payable by Lessee to Lessor as Rent promptly on demand and until such payment shall constitute part of the obligations secured by any Collateral. Any such action shall not be a cure or waiver of any Default or Event of Default hereunder.

11.5 Assignment. In addition to the other dispositions required or contemplated in this Lease, Lessor (the “Assignor”) may at any time, upon 20 days’ prior notice to Lessee, freely grant a security interest in, sell, assign, or transfer (an “Assignment”) all or any part of their respective interests in, under or with respect to this Lease, the other Transaction Documents, the Aircraft, or any Rent due or to become due with respect thereto (including all associated rights associated with or secured thereby and the related international interests), and Xxxxxx shall perform all of its obligations under the Lease Documents, to the extent so transferred, for the benefit of the beneficiary of such Assignment (such beneficiary, including any successors and assigns, an “Assignee”); provided, that only 10 days’ prior notice shall be required if the Assignee is a wholly- owned subsidiary of Lessor. Lessee hereby waives any right to assert, and agrees not to assert, against any Assignee any defense, setoff, recoupment, claim, counterclaim or any other Abatement that Lessee may have against such Assignor. Upon the assumption by such Assignee of such Assignor’s obligations under this Lease and the other Transaction Documents, such Assignor shall be relieved of any such assumed obligations. Lessee hereby consents to any such Assignment, including, without limitation, for purposes of the Cape Town Convention. If so directed in writing, Lessee shall pay all Rent and all other sums due or to become due to such Assignor under the Transaction Documents, including any of the same constituting associated rights or proceeds, directly to the Assignee or any other party designated in writing by such Assignor. Xxxxxx acknowledges and agrees that Xxxxxx’s right to enter into an Assignment is essential to Lessor, and, accordingly, waives any restrictions under Applicable Law with respect to an Assignment and any related remedies. Upon the request of an Assignor or any Assignee, Xxxxxx also agrees (a) to promptly execute and deliver, and cause to be executed and delivered by any Guarantor or any other Transaction Party, to such Assignor or to such Assignee an acknowledgment of assignment in form and substance satisfactory to the requesting party, an insurance certificate naming Assignee as additional insured and (if applicable) loss payee and otherwise evidencing the Required Coverages, and such other documents and assurances reasonably requested by such Assignor or Assignee, as provided herein, (b) to make, or cause to be made, all registrations (including all assignments and subordinations) and all amendments, extensions and discharges with the International Registry reasonably requested by such Assignor or Assignee (and give or obtain any necessary consent thereto, as well as renew any authorization required by the International Registry in connection therewith, including renewing its transacting user entity status and re-designating a professional user entity, if necessary in such Assignor’s judgment), and (c) to comply with any and all other reasonable requirements of any such Assignee in connection with any such Assignment.

11.6 Entire Agreement. This Lease and the other Lease Documents constitute the entire understanding and agreement between Lessor and Lessee with respect to the matters contained herein and therein, and shall completely and fully supersede all other prior agreements (including any proposal letter, commitment letter, and/or term sheet), both written and oral, between Lessor and Lessee relating to the transactions contemplated herein. The terms of this Lease may not be changed, waived, discharged or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement of a change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought.

11.7 Governing Law, Forum and Jury Trial Waiver.

(a) Jurisdiction. Lessee hereby irrevocably consents and agrees that any legal action, suit or proceeding arising out of or in any way in connection with this Lease or any of the other Lease Documents may be instituted or brought in the courts of the State of New York or in the United States Courts for the Southern District of New York, as Lessor may elect or in any other state or Federal court as Lessor shall deem appropriate, and by execution and delivery of this Lease, Lessee hereby irrevocably accepts and submits to, for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any such court, and to all proceedings in such courts. Lessee irrevocably consents to service of any summons and/or legal process by first class, certified United States air mail, postage prepaid, to Lessee at the address set forth below its signature hereto, such method of service to constitute, in every respect, sufficient and effective service of process in any such legal action or proceeding. Nothing in this Lease or in any of the other Lease Documents shall affect the right to service of process in any other manner permitted by law or limit the right of Lessor to bring actions, suits or proceedings in the courts of any other jurisdiction. Xxxxxx further agrees that final judgment against it in any such legal action, suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any other jurisdiction, within or outside the United States of America, by suit on the judgment, a certified or exemplified copy of which shall be conclusive evidence of the fact and the amount of the liability. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, Lessor and Xxxxxx may bring a judicial proceeding in the Republic of Ireland, solely with respect to matters relating to the International Registry.

(b) Governing Law; Binding Effect. This Lease shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of both parties shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of New York (without regard to the conflict of laws principles of such state, except as to the effect of Title 14, Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law), including all matters of construction, validity, and performance. This Lease shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Xxxxxx and Xxxxxx and their respective successors and assigns, except as otherwise expressly provided herein.

(c) Jury Waiver. XXXXXX AND XXXXXX HEREBY KNOWINGLY AND FREELY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO, ARISING UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS LEASE OR ANY OF THE OTHER LEASE DOCUMENTS.

(d) Counterparts; Electronic Signature. This Lease and the other Lease Documents may be executed by the parties hereto on one or more counterparts, each of which counterparts shall be deemed an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page counterpart of this Lease or any other Lease Document by telecopy, emailed .pdf or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of the actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Lease or such other Lease Document. The words “executed,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to any document to be signed in connection with this Lease or any other Lease Document shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic association of signatures and records on electronic platforms, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based record keeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act or the Uniform Commercial Code, each as amended, and the parties hereto hereby waive any objection to the contrary, provided that (x) nothing herein shall require Lessor to accept electronic signature counterparts in any form or format and (y) Lessor reserves the right to require, at any time and at its sole discretion, the delivery of manually executed counterpart signature pages to this Lease or any other Lease Document and the parties hereto agree to promptly deliver such manually executed counterpart signature pages. ONLY COUNTERPART NO. 1 OF THIS LEASE AND THE LEASE SUPPLEMENT SHALL BE CONSIDERED “CHATTEL PAPER” FOR PURPOSES OF THE UCC. The execution hereof on behalf of Xxxxxx and Lessor shall be deemed to constitute the acceptance by Xxxxxx and Lessor of the terms and conditions of each and every addendum, rider, supplement, annex and exhibit hereto as if such document was separately and individually executed on behalf of such party hereto and shall constitute a part of this Lease.

SECTION 12. TRUTH IN LEASING.

THE AIRCRAFT IS IN CURRENT COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS. LESSEE CERTIFIES THAT THE AIRCRAFT WILL BE MAINTAINED AND INSPECTED UNDER PART 91 OF THE FARS FOR OPERATIONS TO BE CONDUCTED UNDER THIS LEASE.

LESSEE FURTHER CERTIFIES THAT IT UNDERSTANDS ITS RESPONSIBILITIES FOR COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE FARS, PROVIDED HOWEVER, THAT LESSEE SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE OPERATIONAL CONTROL OF THE AIRCRAFT FOR SO LONG AS THE AIRCRAFT IS IN POSSESSION OF ANY SUCH AIR TAXI OPERATOR HAVING OPERATIONAL CONTROL TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED HEREUNDER.

Any amount payable by Lessee with respect to a Tax Loss shall be calculated based on the assumptions set forth in Section 1 above (including the Assumed Tax Rate).

(b) Tax Loss. For the purposes of this indemnity, any of the following events shall constitute a “Tax Loss”: (i) if as the result of any act or failure to act of Lessee or any Lessee Party or the breach of any of Lessee’s representations, warranties, or covenants set forth in this Tax Rider or any other Lease Document or otherwise, or any bankruptcy of Lessee or any Default or any Event of Default, Lessor shall lose, or shall not have the right to claim, or shall suffer a disallowance or recapture with respect to, or shall receive a lower than anticipated economic benefit from, all or any portion of the Assumed Tax Benefits (including in respect of Bonus Depreciation); (ii) for federal, foreign, state or local income tax purposes, as a result of any act or failure to act of Lessee or any Lessee Party or the breach of any of Lessee’s representations, warranties, or covenants set forth in this Tax Rider or any other Lease Document or otherwise, or any bankruptcy of Lessee or any Default or any Event of Default, any item of income, gain, loss or deduction with respect to the Aircraft or any part thereto is treated as derived from, or allocable to, sources outside the United States, and as a result Lessor’s allowable foreign tax credit for federal income tax purposes for any year is less than the credit to which Lessor would have been entitled if all such income, gain, loss and deduction had been from U.S. sources; (iii) during the Term there shall be included in Lessor’s gross income for federal, state or local income tax purposes any amount on account of any addition, alteration or other modification or improvement to or in respect of the Aircraft or any part thereof made or paid for by Lessee or any Lessee Party or any substitution or exchange of the Aircraft or any part thereof; or (iv) if for any reason whatsoever (whether as a result of a breach of Xxxxxx’s representations, warranties or covenants, or acts or omissions, or otherwise) Lessor shall lose, shall not have the right to claim, or shall suffer a disallowance or recapture or shall receive a lower than anticipated economic benefit from the Bonus Depreciation.

4. Beneficiaries of the Indemnity. Lessor shall be an express third party beneficiary of the representations, warranties, indemnifications and agreements by Lessee in this Tax Rider and shall have the right to enforce the same against Xxxxxx. For purposes of this Tax Rider:

(a) “Lessor” includes Lessor, its Affiliates, its successors in interest, each assignee and each of their respective successors in interest and assigns, any Consolidated Group (hereinafter defined) of which Lessor or any such assignee or any of their respective successors in interest or assigns is, or may become a member, and each member of such Consolidated Group; and

(b) “Consolidated Group” means an affiliated group (within the meaning of Section 1504 of the Code) that files consolidated returns for federal income tax purposes and any group filing combined, unitary or consolidated returns pursuant to the rules of any state taxing authority.

5. Notices and Payment. Lessor shall provide Lessee with notice of any Tax Loss (including a reasonable description of the Tax Loss and the calculation of the amount due in respect of the same) for which Xxxxxx is responsible pursuant to this Tax Rider, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not relieve Lessee of responsibility under this Tax Rider and upon such notice to Lessee, the amount due in respect of such Tax Loss shall become immediately due to Lessor.

6. Survival. The indemnification obligations of Lessee under this Tax Rider shall survive the expiration, cancellation or termination of the Lease.

If any life limited part or component does not comply with Section 1(c)(ii) above, Lessee shall pay to Lessor with respect to each part or component for which said requirement is not met the dollar amount obtained by multiplying (i) the ratio that the life expended in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the available hours, cycles and/or months, as the case may be, until the next scheduled replacement bears to the total allowable life (measured in hours, cycles and/or months, as the case may be) for such part or component by (ii) Lessor’s cost of replacement of such part or component.

3. Inspections. Not more than forty-five (45) days prior to the expiration of the Lease, upon the written request of Lessor, Lessee shall certify to Lessor that the Aircraft is in the condition required by this Return Addendum, or indicate what maintenance or repair is needed to bring the Aircraft to the specified condition. Without limiting the provisions of Section 10.4 of the Lease, Lessor shall have the right, but not the duty, to inspect the Aircraft, any component thereof and/or the Records, at any reasonable time and from time to time, wherever located, upon reasonable prior written notice to Lessee except that no advance notice shall be necessary prior to any inspection conducted, and such inspection may be conducted at any time, after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default. Upon request of Lessor, Lessee shall promptly confirm to Lessor the location of the Aircraft and/or the Records. Lessee shall be responsible for the cost of such inspection and shall pay Lessor such amount as additional Rent within ten (10) days of demand. If the results of such inspection indicate that the Aircraft, any Engine or any Part, has not been maintained or returned in accordance with the provisions of the Lease, in addition to all other Rent due under the Lease, Lessee shall pay to Lessor within ten (10) days of demand, as liquidated damages, the estimated cost of servicing or repairing any such non-complying item so as to cause it to be in compliance therewith. Such amount shall be determined by Lessor by obtaining two quotes for such service or repair work and taking their average. Lessee shall bear the cost, if any, incurred by Lessor in obtaining such quotes.

4. Holdover Rent. If Lessee fails to return the Aircraft (including the Records) at the time, place and in the condition specified in this Return Addendum, (A) all of Lessee’s obligations under the Lease shall continue until it is so returned to Lessor, and (B) as liquidated damages, and not as a penalty, and, in addition to all other Rent due under the Lease, Lessee shall pay to Lessor an amount equal to the greater of the fair market rent value (which for the purposes of this Section shall be as determined by Lessor) or the Daily Rent for each day after the end of the Term to, but excluding the day the Aircraft is actually returned in accordance with this Return Addendum; provided, however, that the obligation to pay, or the payment of, any such holdover or additional rent shall neither extend the time to return, nor constitute a waiver of any Default or Event of Default arising by reason of such failure to return. Such amount shall be payable upon the earlier of Lessor’s demand or the return of the Aircraft in accordance with the Lease.

5. Miscellaneous. Xxxxxx agrees to execute, if requested by Xxxxxx, a lease termination statement. All of the amounts payable under this Return Addendum shall constitute Supplemental Rent. The provisions of this Return Addendum shall survive the expiration, cancellation or other termination of the Lease and the return of the Aircraft to Lessor for any reason whatsoever. Without limiting any other terms or conditions of the Lease, the provisions of this Return Addendum are of the essence of the Lease, and upon application to any court of equity having jurisdiction, Lessor shall be entitled to a decree against Xxxxxx requiring specific performance of the covenants of Lessee set forth herein.

SCHEDULE RA-1

Airframe Maintenance Requirements

Airframe must be current with Flight Ready, at the “P3” level, with all amounts fully paid that are due and payable on or before the date of return (the “Return Date”) (or accrued and prorated to the Return Date, if any amount due and payable after the Return Date is attributable to a period prior to the Return Date). Such plan shall be transferable to Lessor or its designee at closing on the Return Date without additional cost to Lessor.

Interior and Exterior wear must be at least to standard set forth in Expected Interior Wear/Tear and Expected Exterior Paint sections as outlined below.

Expected Interior Wear/Tear

The Interior carpet, seat covers, head Liner, plastics, etc. will wear based on aircraft utilization, and reasonable wear is expected. The scale below defines the corresponding expected percentage at the end of each year of use:

Year	Expected Interior Rating at lease return
New	100%
End of Year 1	>70% or Greater
End of Year 2	>60% or Greater
End of Year 3	>50% or Greater
End of Year 4	>40% or Greater
End of Year 5	>30% or Greater

100% Perfect. As good as new (in and out) w/o refurbishment. Perfect logs / history. Maintained exclusively by one world-class shop or factory since new. For cabin- class airplanes, flown by the same professional crew since new. Always hangared. One U.S. owner since new who spared no expense. Almost no airplane will meet this standard.		-10%
90%		-20% Below Average. Compared to others of its type and age, the aircraft does not meet an average standard.
80%		-30%
70% Nearly Perfect. One or two owners since new who spared no expense. Maintained by one or two world-class shops or factory since new. Flawless logs. Cabin-class airplanes will be flown exclusively by one or two professional crews. Always hangared. Inspection ports and other interior areas are extremely clean and like new. Very few airplanes meet this standard.		-40% Fair. Aircraft has had numerous owners. Some obviously elected to defer maintenance. Logbooks are complete, but not as neat and easy to read as they should be. There are few, if any entries from well-known shops. Internal inspection (inside wings and fuselage) reveals that aircraft is not very clean.
60%		-50%
50%		-60% Poor. Aircraft has had a multitude of owners. One or more were outside the U.S. It is difficult to determine if all required items have been done. There are many entries from unknown shops, some are not in English. Aircraft has obviously not been professionally flown or maintained. Some corrosion can easily be found, and some areas will have to be repaired.
40% Excellent. Aircraft has had one to several owners who have spared no expense. All maintenance has been done by well-known shops or service centers. Excellent logs and history.		-70%
30%		-80% Rough. Aircraft appears rough even as it sits on the ramp. Logs are a mess. History is questionable because of an occasional missing page from an engine and/or airframe logbook. Aircraft is airworthy, but most owners would elect to have some dented or scratched skins or panels replaced.
20% Superior. Aircraft reflects a history, which is superior to others of its type and age.		-90%
10%		-100% Extremely Rough. It is obvious, even to an untrained person, that the airplane will need extensive work. Missing logbook pages are common. Many entries are suspicious because they are incomplete or unreadable. Corrosion is widespread. Numerous dented or cracked areas will have to be replaced.
0%

Expected Exterior Paint

The exterior and airframe will wear based on aircraft utilization, reasonable wear is expected. The scale below defines the corresponding expected percentage at the end of each year of service:

Year		Expected exterior paint Rating at lease return

New		100%
End of Year 1		>70% or Greater
End of Year 2		>60% or Greater
End of Year 3		>50% or Greater
End of Year 4		>40% or Greater
End of Year 5		>30% or Greater

Any interior or paint damage or wear/tear exceeding the expectations set forth above shall be considered non- compliance with the Return Conditions.

Engine Maintenance Requirements

The Aircraft Engines must be currently and continuously since delivery to Lessor under the Purchase Agreement enrolled and maintained in in accordance with a GHAE Engine Maintenance Care (EMC) service plan, at the “EMC²” level, with all amounts fully paid that are due and payable on or before the Return Date (or accrued and prorated to the Return Date, if any amount due and payable after to the Return Date is attributable to a period prior to the Purchase Date, in which case the Guaranty Residual Value shall be reduced by such accrued and prorated amount). Such plan shall be transferable to Honda or its designee without additional cost to Honda. Engines will require borescopic inspection per the technical manual, GHAE - HF120 LMM 72-00-00 Task 72-00-00-200-802. Any findings from this inspection will be rectified to the engine manufacturer standards at Lessor’s expense, to be paid by Lessor in advance or, at Honda’s discretion, the cost of such reconstruction may be deducted from the Guaranty Residual Value payable to Lessor on the Return Date.

The aircraft must be returned with at least 50% of life (cycles, hours or months, whichever is the more life limiting factor, as applicable) remaining on the following:

1. Hot Section Inspection (HSI)

2. Overhaul

3. Life Limited Parts (LLP)

Life Limited Parts (LLP)

Engine Component	Minimum Mature Life Limit (Cycles)
Fan Rotor		15,000
LPC Stage 1 Booster Rotor		15,000
