It is expressly agreed that anything herein contained to the contrary

if any, assumed by it thereunder, all in accordance with and pursuant to the
terms and provisions thereof, and the Indenture Trustee and the holders of the
Equipment Notes shall have no obligation or liability under any of the Operative
Agreements to which the Owner Trustee is a party by reason of or arising out of
this assignment, nor shall the Indenture Trustee (unless the Indenture Trustee
shall have become the "Lessor" under the Lease) or the holders of the Equipment
Notes be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any
obligations of the Owner Trustee under or pursuant to any of the Operative
Agreements to which the Owner Trustee is a party or, except as herein expressly
provided, to make any payment, or to make any inquiry as to the nature or

any action to collect or enforce the payment of any amounts which may have been
assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.
The Owner Trustee does hereby constitute the Indenture Trustee the
true and lawful attorney of the Owner Trustee, irrevocably, with full power (in
the name of the Owner Trustee or otherwise), to ask, require, demand, receive,
compound and give acquittance for any and all moneys and claims for moneys due
and to become due to the Owner Trustee (other than Excepted Property), under or
arising out of the Lease, or to endorse any checks or other instruments or
orders in connection therewith and to file any claims or take any action or
institute any proceedings which the Indenture Trustee may deem to be necessary
or advisable in the premises. The Owner Trustee has directed the Lessee to make
all payments of Rent (other than Excepted Property) payable to the Owner Trustee
by the Lessee and all other amounts which are required to be paid to or
deposited with the Owner Trustee pursuant to the Lease (other than Excepted
Property) directly to the Indenture Trustee at such address as the Indenture
Trustee shall specify, for application as provided in this Indenture. The Owner
Trustee agrees that promptly on receipt thereof, it will transfer to the
Indenture Trustee any and all moneys from time to time received by it
constituting part of the Indenture Estate, for distribution by the Indenture
Trustee pursuant to this Indenture, except that the Owner Trustee shall accept
for distribution pursuant to the Trust Agreement any amounts distributed to it
by the Indenture Trustee as expressly provided in this Indenture and any
Excepted Property.
The Owner Trustee agrees that at any time and from time to time, upon
the written request of the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee will promptly
and duly execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered any and all
such further instruments and documents as the
3
Indenture Trustee may reasonably deem to be necessary in order to obtain the
full benefits of this assignment and of the rights and powers herein granted.
The Owner Trustee does hereby warrant and represent that it has not
assigned or pledged, and hereby covenants that it will not assign or pledge, so
long as the assignment hereunder shall remain in effect, any of its right, title
or interest hereby assigned, to anyone other than the Indenture Trustee, and
that it will not (other than in respect of Excepted Property), except as
provided in or permitted by this Indenture, accept any payment from the Lessee,
enter into an agreement amending or supplementing any of the Operative
Agreements, execute any waiver or modification of, or consent under the terms of
any of the Operative Agreements (other than the Tax Indemnity Agreement), settle
or compromise any claim (other than claims in respect of Excepted Property)
against the Lessee arising under any of the Operative Agreements, or submit or
consent to the submission of any dispute, difference or other matter arising
under or in respect of any of the Operative Agreements, to arbitration

Equipment Note shall surrender such Equipment Note to the Indenture Trustee upon
payment in full of the principal amount of and interest on such Equipment Note
and such other sums payable to such holder hereunder or under the Equipment
Note.
(b) Whenever the date scheduled for any payment to be made hereunder
or under any Equipment Note shall not be a Business Day, then such payment need
not be made on such scheduled date but may be made on the next succeeding
Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such scheduled date

Section 2.05. Application of Payments to Principal Amount and
Interest. In the case of each Equipment Note, each payment of principal thereof

Equipment Note then due thereunder, third, to the payment of any premium then
due thereon and fourth, to the payment of the remaining outstanding principal
amount of such Equipment Note; provided, that the Owner Trustee may only prepay

paid in full.
Section 2.07. Transfer of Equipment Notes. The Indenture Trustee
shall maintain at its corporate trust administration office in Chicago, Illinois
or in the city in which the corporate trust office of a successor Indenture
Trustee is located, a register for the purpose of registering transfers and
exchanges of Equipment Notes. A holder of an Equipment Note intending to
transfer such Equipment Note to a new payee, or to exchange any Equipment Note
or Equipment Notes of any Series held by it for an Equipment Note or Equipment
Notes of a different denomination or denominations, may surrender such Equipment
Note or Equipment Notes to the Indenture Trustee at such principal corporate
trust administration office of the Indenture Trustee, together with a written
request from such holder for the issuance of a new
9
Equipment Note or Equipment Notes of such Series, specifying the denomination or
denominations (each of which shall be not less than $1,000,000 or a whole
multiple thereof or such smaller denomination as may be necessary due to the

principal amount not evenly divisible by $1,000,000) of the same, and, in the
case of a surrender for registration of transfer, the name and address of the
transferee or transferees. Promptly upon receipt of such documents, the Owner
Trustee will issue, and the Indenture Trustee will authenticate, a new Equipment
Note or Equipment Notes in the same aggregate principal amount and dated the
same date or dates as, with the same payment schedule, in the form set forth in
Section 2.01 in the same maturity and bearing the same interest rate as the
Equipment Note or Equipment Notes surrendered, in such denomination or
denominations and payable to such payee or payees as shall be specified in the
written request from such holder. All Equipment Notes issued upon any
registration of transfer or exchange of Equipment Notes shall be the valid
obligations of the Owner Trustee evidencing the same respective obligations, and
entitled to the same security and benefits under this Indenture, as the
Equipment Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. The
Indenture Trustee shall make a notation on each new Equipment Note or Equipment
Notes of the amount of all payments or prepayments of principal and interest
previously made on the old Equipment Note or Equipment Notes with respect to
which such new Equipment Note or Equipment Notes is or are issued. From time to
time, the Indenture Trustee will provide the Owner Trustee and the Lessee with
such information as it may request as to the registered holders of Equipment
Notes. The Owner Trustee shall not be required to exchange any surrendered
Equipment Notes as above provided during the 10-day period preceding the due
date of any payment on such Equipment Notes.
Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of an
Equipment Note, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee may deem and treat
the registered holder of such Equipment Note as the absolute owner and holder of
such Equipment Note for the purpose of receiving payment of all amounts payable
with respect to such Equipment Note and for all other purposes and shall not be
affected by any notice to the contrary.
The Indenture Trustee will promptly notify the Owner Trustee and the
Lessee of each request for a registration of transfer of an Equipment Note. The
Indenture Trustee will promptly cancel and destroy all Equipment Notes
surrendered for transfer or exchange pursuant to this Section.
Section 2.08. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Equipment Notes.
If any Equipment Note of any Series shall become mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen, the Owner Trustee shall, upon the written request of the holder of such
Equipment Note, issue, and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver
in replacement thereof, a new Equipment Note of such Series in the form set
forth in Section 2.01, payable to the same holder in the same principal amount,
of the same maturity, with the same payment schedule, bearing the same interest
rate and dated the same date as the Equipment Note so mutilated, destroyed, lost
or stolen. The Indenture Trustee shall make a notation on each new Equipment
Note of the amount of all payments or prepayments of principal and interest
theretofore made on the Equipment Note so mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
and the date to which interest on such old Equipment Note has been paid. If the
Equipment Note being replaced has become mutilated, such Equipment Note shall be
surrendered to the Indenture Trustee and forwarded to the Owner Trustee by the
10
Indenture Trustee. If the Equipment Note being replaced has been destroyed,
lost or stolen, the holder of such Equipment Note shall furnish to the Owner
Trustee and the Indenture Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required
by them to save the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee harmless and
evidence satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee of the
destruction, loss or theft of such Equipment Note and of the ownership thereof.
Section 2.09. Payment of Transfer Taxes. Upon the transfer of any
Equipment Note or Equipment Notes pursuant to Section 2.07, the Owner Trustee or
the Indenture Trustee may require from the party requesting such new Equipment
Note or Equipment Notes payment of a sum to reimburse the Owner Trustee or the
Indenture Trustee for, or to provide funds for the payment of, any tax or other
governmental charge in connection therewith.
Section 2.10. Prepayments. (a) Each Equipment Note of any Series
shall be prepaid in whole or in part by the Owner Trustee on a Rent Payment Date
(or, in the circumstance provided in the last sentence of Section 10.3 of the
Lease, on a Determination Date) upon at least 25 days' prior notice from the
Owner Trustee (or the Lessee on its behalf) to the Indenture Trustee in the
event that the Lease as applicable to any Unit or Units related to such
Equipment Note is terminated pursuant to Section 10 thereof, at a price equal to
the sum of (i) as to principal thereof, an amount equal to the product obtained
by multiplying the unpaid principal amount of such Equipment Note as at the date
of such prepayment (after deducting therefrom the principal installment, if any,
due on or prior to the date of such prepayment) by a fraction, the numerator of
which shall be the Equipment Cost of such Unit or Units and the denominator of
which shall be the aggregate Equipment Cost of all Units of the relevant Basic
Group included in the Indenture Estate under the related Indenture Supplement
immediately prior to the date of such prepayment, (ii) as to interest, the
aggregate amount of interest accrued and unpaid in respect of the principal
amount to be prepaid pursuant to clause (i) above on the date of such payment
(after giving effect to the application of any Basic Rent paid on or prior to
the date of such prepayment) and (iii) a premium in an amount equal to the Make-
Whole Amount, if any, applicable in respect of the principal amount to be
prepaid pursuant to clause (i) above on the date of such prepayment.
(b) Each Equipment Note of any Series shall be prepaid in whole or in
part by the Owner Trustee on a Rent Payment Date upon at least 25 days' prior
notice from the Owner Trustee (or the Lessee on its behalf) to the Indenture
Trustee in connection with the occurrence of an Event of Loss or the deemed
occurrence of an Event of Loss pursuant to Section 9.1 of the Lease with respect
to any Unit or Units related to such Equipment Note if such Unit or Units are
not replaced pursuant to Section 11.2(i) of the Lease, or in the event Lessee
shall be required to settle for 15 or more Units on a Determination Date
pursuant to Section 11.2 of the Lease, such prepayment shall be made on such
Determination Date, at a price equal to the sum of (i) as to principal thereof,
an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying the aggregate unpaid
principal amount of such Equipment Note as at such prepayment date (after
deducting therefrom the principal installment, if any, due on such date) by a
fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Equipment Cost of such Unit or
Units and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate Equipment Cost of all
Units of the relevant Basic Group included in the Indenture Estate under the
related Indenture Supplement immediately prior to such date, and (ii) as to
interest, the aggregate amount of interest accrued and unpaid in respect of the
principal amount to be prepaid pursuant to clause (i) above to but not including
the date of prepayment after giving effect to the
11
application of any Basic Rent paid on or prior to the date of such prepayment,
but without the payment of any Make-Whole Amount or other premium.
(c) Unless Lessee shall have elected pursuant to Section 6.9 of the
Participation Agreement or Section 22.1 of the Lease to assume all of the rights
and obligations of the Owner Trustee under this Indenture in respect of the
Equipment Notes of any Series, each Equipment Note of such Series shall be
prepaid in whole or in part by the Owner Trustee on the Determination Date
specified by Lessee to Owner Trustee and Indenture Trustee in accordance with
Section 6.9 of the Participation Agreement or Section 22.1 of the Lease, as the
case may be, in the event that Lessee exercises a purchase option under Section
6.9 of the Participation Agreement or Section 22.1 of the Lease, as the case may
be, with respect to any Unit or Units related to such Equipment Note, at a price
equal to the sum of (i) as to principal thereof, an amount equal to the product
obtained by multiplying the aggregate unpaid principal amount of such Equipment
Note as at the date of any prepayment under Section 6.9 of the Participation
Agreement or Section 22.1 of the Lease, as the case may be (after deducting
therefrom the principal installment, if any, due on the prepayment date) by a
fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Equipment Cost of such Unit or
Units to be purchased and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate
Equipment Cost of all Units of the relevant Basic Group included in the
Indenture Estate under the related Indenture Supplement immediately prior to the
date of such prepayment, (ii) as to interest, the aggregate amount of interest
accrued and unpaid in respect of the principal amount to be prepaid pursuant to
clause (i) above on the date of such prepayment after giving effect to the
application of any Basic Rent paid on or prior to the date of such prepayment,
and (iii) a premium in an amount equal to the aggregate Make-Whole Amount, if
any, applicable in respect of the principal amount to be prepaid pursuant to
clause (i) above on the date of such payment.
(d) On the Refunding Date specified by the Lessee to the Indenture
Trustee in accordance with Section 10.2(f) of the Participation Agreement, all
Equipment Notes shall be prepaid in whole but not in part on such Refunding
Date, in the event of a refunding or refinancing pursuant to Section 10.2 of the
Participation Agreement, at a price in addition to any other amounts due to the
holders of the Equipment Notes under this Indenture equal to the unpaid
principal amount thereof together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon,
plus, a premium in an amount equal to the Make-Whole Amount, if any.
(e) The Indenture Trustee shall give prompt notice of any prepayment
of any Equipment Notes to all holders of the Equipment Notes as soon as the
Indenture Trustee shall have knowledge that such prepayment is expected to
occur, which notice shall specify the Equipment Note or Notes to be prepaid, the
principal amount of such Equipment Note or Notes to be prepaid and the expected
date of prepayment which date shall be not less than 25 days after the date of
such notice.
Section 2.11. Equally and Ratably Secured. All Equipment Notes at
any time outstanding under this Indenture shall be equally and ratably secured
hereby without preference, priority or distinction on account of the date or
dates or the actual time or times of the issue or maturity of such Equipment
Notes so that all Equipment Notes at any time issued and outstanding hereunder
shall have the same rights, Liens and preferences under and by virtue of this
Indenture.

from the Indenture Estate; Assumption of
Obligations of Owner Trustee by the Lessee
Section 3.01. Basic Rent Distribution. Except as otherwise provided
in Section 3.03 or 3.05, each installment of Basic Rent, as well as any
installment of interest on overdue installments of Basic Rent and any other
moneys paid over by the Lessee or the Owner Trustee to the Indenture Trustee for
such purpose, shall be distributed by the Indenture Trustee as promptly as
possible (it being understood that any payments of Basic Rent received by the
Indenture Trustee on a timely basis and in accordance with the provisions of
Section 3.6 of the Lease shall be distributed on the date received in the funds
so received) in the following order of priority: first, so much of such
installment as shall be required for the purpose shall be distributed and paid
to the holders of the Equipment Notes to pay in full the aggregate amount of the
payment or payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest (as well as any
interest on overdue principal or interest) then due, such distribution to be
made ratably, without priority of one over the other, in the proportion that the
amount of such payment or payments then due with respect to each such Equipment
Note bears to the aggregate amount of payments then due under all such Equipment
Notes; and second, the balance, if any, of such installment remaining thereafter
shall be distributed to the Owner Trustee for distribution in accordance with
the terms of the Trust Agreement. The portion of each such installment
distributed to a holder of an Equipment Note shall be applied by such holder in
payment of such Equipment Note in accordance with the terms of Section 2.05.
Section 3.02. Payments in the Event of Prepayment.
-----------------------------------
(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.03 or 3.05, in the event
of any prepayment of an Equipment Note or Notes, in whole or in part, in
accordance with the provisions of Section 2.10 any amount received shall in each
case be distributed and paid in the following order of priority: first, so much
of such amount as shall be required for the purpose of prepayment shall be
distributed and paid to the holders of such Equipment Note or Notes to pay the
aggregate amount of the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest to
be prepaid on such Equipment Note or Notes pursuant to Section 2.10, such
prepayment to be made ratably to such Equipment Note or Notes to which such
prepayment relates, without priority of one over any other, in the proportion
that the amount to be prepaid on each such Equipment Note bears to the aggregate
amount to be paid on all such Equipment Notes; and second, the balance, if any,
of such amount remaining thereafter shall be distributed to the Owner Trustee
for distribution in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement.
(b) Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.03 or 3.05 hereof, any
amounts received directly or through the Lessee from any governmental authority
or other party pursuant to Section 11 of the Lease with respect to any Unit as
the result of an Event of Loss, to the extent that such amounts are not at the
time required to be paid to the Lessee pursuant to said Section 11, and any
amounts of insurance proceeds for damage to the Indenture Estate received
directly or through the Lessee from any insurer pursuant to Section 12 of the
Lease with respect thereto as the result of an Event of Loss, to the extent such
amounts are not at the time required
13
to be paid to the Lessee pursuant to said Section 12, shall be applied as
provided in clause (a) of this Section 3.02.
Section 3.03. Payments after Indenture Event of Default.
-----------------------------------------
(a) Except as provided in Section 3.05, all payments received and
amounts realized by the Indenture Trustee after an Indenture Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing and after the Indenture Trustee has
declared (as assignee from the Owner Trustee of the Lease) the Lease to be in
default pursuant to Section 15 thereof or has declared the Equipment Notes to be
accelerated pursuant to Section 4.02, as the case may be, or has elected to
foreclose or otherwise exercise any remedies under this Indenture (including any
amounts realized by the Indenture Trustee from the exercise of any remedies
pursuant to Section 15 of the Lease, or Article IV), as well as all payments or
amounts then held or thereafter received by the Indenture Trustee as part of the
Indenture Estate while such Indenture Event of Default shall be continuing,
shall be distributed forthwith by the Indenture Trustee in the following order
of priority:
First, so much of such payments or amounts as shall be required
to reimburse the Indenture Trustee for any fees which are due and payable
for its services under this Indenture and any tax, expense (including
reasonable attorney's fees) or other loss incurred by the Indenture Trustee
(to the extent reimbursable and not previously reimbursed and to the extent
incurred in connection with its duties as Indenture Trustee) shall be
distributed to the Indenture Trustee;
Second, so much of such payments or amounts as shall be required
to reimburse the holders of the Equipment Notes for payments made by them
to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 5.03 (to the extent not
previously reimbursed), and to pay such holders of the Equipment Notes the
amounts payable to them pursuant to the provisions of the Participation
Agreement, shall be distributed to such holders of the Equipment Notes,
without priority of one over the other, in accordance with the amount of
the payment or payments made by, or payable to, each such holder;
Third, so much of such payments or amounts remaining as shall be
required to pay the principal of, and premium, if any, to the extent
received from the Lessee as Supplemental Rent, and accrued interest (to the
date of distribution) on all Equipment Notes, payable to the Loan
Participant, then due and payable, whether by declaration of acceleration
pursuant to Section 4.02 or otherwise, and in case the aggregate amount so
to be distributed shall be insufficient to pay in full the aforesaid
amounts, then, ratably, without priority of one over the other, in the
proportion that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Equipment
Notes held by each such holder, plus the accrued but unpaid interest
thereon to the date of distribution, bears to the aggregate unpaid
principal amount of all Equipment Notes, plus the accrued but unpaid
interest thereon to the date of distribution; and
Fourth, the balance, if any, of such payments or amounts
remaining thereafter shall be distributed to the Owner Trustee for
distribution in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement.
14
(b) Except as provided in Sections 3.03(a) and 3.05, if an Indenture
Default or Indenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the
Indenture Trustee shall not make any distribution to the Owner Trustee but shall
hold amounts otherwise distributable to the Owner Trustee as collateral security
for the obligations secured hereby and invested as provided in Section 6.04(b)
until the earliest to occur of (a) the date on which such Indenture Default or
Indenture Event of Default shall have been cured or waived, and (b) such
acceleration occurs and such amounts are applied pursuant to Section 3.03(a);
provided, that if any amounts are held pursuant to this Section 3.03(b) for a
period of 180 days during which time the Equipment Notes could, but shall not
have been, accelerated, then (x) all amounts then held by the Indenture Trustee
under this Section 3.03(b) with respect to such Indenture Default or Indenture
Event of Default which have been so held for at least 90 days shall on the 181st
day be distributed to the Owner Trustee for distribution in accordance with the
terms of the Trust Agreement and (y) any such amounts which are being held
pursuant to this Section 3.03(b) with respect to such Indenture Default or
Indenture Event of Default but which have not been held for at least 90 days
shall, on the 91st day following the date on which such amount was initially
received by the Indenture Trustee, thereafter be distributed to the Owner
Trustee for distribution in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement.
Section 3.04. Other Payments. Except as otherwise provided in
Section 3.03 or 3.05, (a) any payments received by the Indenture Trustee for
which no provision as to the application thereof is made in the Lease or the
Participation Agreement or elsewhere in this Article III, and (b) all payments
received and amounts realized by the Indenture Trustee under the Lease or
otherwise with respect to the Equipment to the extent received or realized at
any time after payment in full of the principal of and interest and premium, if
any, on all Equipment Notes, as well as any other amounts remaining as part of
the Indenture Estate after payment in full of the principal of and interest and
premium, if any, shall be distributed forthwith by the Indenture Trustee in the
order of priority set forth in Section 3.03(a), except that in the case of any
payment described in clause (b) above, such payment shall be distributed
omitting clause "third" of such Section 3.03(a) on all Equipment Notes issued
hereunder.
Any payments received by the Indenture Trustee for which provision as
to the application thereof is made in the Lease or the Participation Agreement
but not elsewhere in this Indenture shall be applied to the purposes for which
such payments were made in accordance with the provisions of the Lease or the
Participation Agreement, as the case may be.
Section 3.05. Distribution of Excepted Property. All amounts
constituting Excepted Property received by the Indenture Trustee shall be paid
promptly by the Indenture Trustee to the Person or Persons entitled thereto.
Section 3.06. Assumption of Obligations of Owner Trustee by the
Lessee. In the event that the Lessee shall have elected to assume all of the
rights and obligations of the Owner Trustee under this Indenture in respect of
the Equipment Notes on a full recourse basis in connection with the purchase by
the Lessee of Units pursuant to Section 6.9 of the Participation Agreement or
Section 22.1 of the Lease and, if on or prior to the applicable purchase date:
15
(a) The Lessee shall have delivered to the Indenture Trustee and the
Owner Trustee a certificate, dated the date of such purchase, of a Responsible
Officer of the Lessee stating that the Lessee has paid to the Owner Trustee all
amounts required to be paid to the Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 3.3 of the
Lease in connection with such purchase and assumption;
(b) no Indenture Default shall have occurred and be continuing
immediately subsequent to such purchase or assumption after giving effect to the
indenture supplement referred to below and the Indenture Trustee and the Owner
Trustee shall have received a certificate, dated the date of such purchase, of a
Responsible Officer of the Lessee to such effect;
(c) the Indenture Trustee shall have received, on or prior to the
date of such purchase, evidence of all filings, recordings and other action
referred to in the opinion or opinions of counsel referred to below;
(d) the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee shall have received
an opinion or opinions of counsel for the Lessee, dated the date of such
purchase which without unusual qualification and permitting reliance on proposed
Treasury Regulations shall be to the effect that, after giving effect to the
indenture supplement referred to below:
(i) this Indenture, the indenture supplement referred to below
and the Equipment Notes issued thereunder each constitutes the legal, valid
and binding obligation of the Lessee, enforceable against the Lessee in
accordance with their respective terms, except as the same may be limited
by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar
laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and by general principles
of equity, and except as limited by applicable laws which may affect the
remedies provided for in this Indenture, which laws, however, do not in the
opinion of such counsel make the remedies provided for in this Agreement
inadequate for the practical realization of the rights and benefits
provided for in this Indenture;
(ii) all filings and recordings and other action necessary or
appropriate to protect the interests of the Indenture Trustee in the Units
to be so purchased by the Lessee have been accomplished;
(iii) no holder of Equipment Notes will be required to recognize
gain or loss for tax purposes in connection with such assumption; and
(iv) covering such other matters as the Indenture Trustee shall
reasonably request that are customary for transactions of this type; and
(e) upon delivery of an indenture supplement giving effect to such
assumption reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee and execution and
delivery of Equipment Notes reflecting such assumption, each dated the date of
such purchase;
then, automatically and without the requirement of further action by any Person,
effective as of the date of such purchase, the Owner Trustee shall be released
from all of its obligations under
16
the Equipment Notes and under this Indenture in respect of the Equipment Notes
or otherwise related to such Units (other than any obligations or liabilities of
the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity incurred on or prior to the date of
such purchase or arising out of or based upon events occurring on or prior to
the date of such purchase, which obligations and liabilities shall remain the
sole responsibility of the Owner Trustee) and the Lien of this Indenture upon
the sale proceeds paid or payable to the Owner Trustee shall be discharged. If
requested by the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver
an instrument, in form and substance satisfactory to the Owner Trustee,
confirming such release and discharge. In the event that the affected Owner
Participant under Section 6.9 of the Participation Agreement holds less than
100% of the Beneficial Interest and the Lessee is therefore purchasing less than
all the Units pursuant to said Section 6.9 or the Lessee elects to purchase less
than all of the Units pursuant to Section 22.1 of the Lease, as the case may be,
the assumption by the Lessee of the rights and obligations of the Owner Trustee
under this Indenture in respect of that portion of the indebtedness evidenced by
the Equipment Notes which relates to such purchased Units shall be made on the
same terms and conditions as are described in clauses (a) through (e) above
except that (x) the opinion under clause (d) above shall be appropriately
modified to reflect such partial assumption of indebtedness, and (y) the
indenture supplement shall provide for a wholly new and separate indenture
between the Lessee and the Indenture Trustee for that portion of such
indebtedness evidenced by the Equipment Notes which is to be assumed by the
Lessee and secured by the Units to be purchased; and this Indenture shall
thereafter relate only to that portion of the indebtedness evidenced by the
Equipment Notes remaining outstanding under this Indenture after such
assumption. Any such new and separate indenture shall contain the same terms and
provisions of this Indenture with only such changes thereto which are necessary
to reflect the replacement of the Owner Trustee with the Lessee and which do not
adversely affect the rights of the holders of the Equipment Notes.
Article IV.
Remedies of the Indenture Trustee upon an Indenture Event of Default
Section 4.01. Indenture Events of Default. The following events
shall constitute "Indenture Events of Default" and each such Indenture Event of
Default shall be deemed to exist and continue so long as, but only so long as,
it shall not have been remedied:
(a) subject to Section 4.04(a), a Lease Event of Default (other than
a Lease Event of Default by reason of a default by the Lessee to pay any amounts
which are part of the Excepted Property); or
(b) default by the Owner Trustee in making any payment when due of
principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Equipment Note or Equipment
Notes, and the continuance of such default unremedied for 10 Business Days after
the same shall have become due and payable; or
(c) any failure by the Owner Trustee or the Owner Participant to
observe or perform any covenant or obligation of them or any of them, in this
Indenture or the Equipment Notes (other than as set forth in clause (b) above)
or in the Participation Agreement or by the Guarantor in the Guaranty, if such
failure is not remedied within a period of 30 days after there has been given to
the Owner Trustee, the Owner Participant and the Lessee by the Indenture
17
Trustee or by any holder of an Equipment Note a written notice specifying such
failure and requiring it to be remedied; or
(d) any representation or warranty made by the Owner Trustee or the
Owner Participant under the Participation Agreement, or by the Owner Trustee
hereunder or by the Guarantor in the Guaranty, or by any representative or
Affiliate of the Owner Trustee or the Owner Participant or the Guarantor in any
document or certificate furnished to the Indenture Trustee or the Loan
Participant in connection herewith or therewith or pursuant hereto or thereto,
shall prove at any time to have been incorrect in any material respect as of the
date made and such incorrectness shall remain material and continue unremedied
for a period of 30 days after there has been given to the Owner Trustee and the
Owner Participant a written notice specifying such incorrectness, stating that
such incorrectness is a default hereunder and requiring it to be remedied by the
Indenture Trustee or by any holder of an Equipment Note; or
(e) the Owner Trustee (as Owner Trustee and not in its individual
capacity), the Owner Participant, the OP General Partner or the Guarantor shall
consent to the appointment of a custodian, receiver, trustee or liquidator of
itself or of a substantial part of its property or shall make a general
assignment for the benefit of creditors; or
(f) the Owner Trustee (as Owner Trustee and not in its individual
capacity), the Owner Participant, the OP General Partner or the Guarantor shall
file, or consent by answer or otherwise to the filing against it of, a petition
for relief or reorganization or arrangement or any other petition in bankruptcy,
for liquidation or to take advantage of any bankruptcy or insolvency law of any
jurisdiction; or
(g) an order, judgment or decree shall be entered by any court of
competent jurisdiction appointing, without the consent of the Owner Trustee (as
Owner Trustee and not in its individual capacity), the Owner Participant, the OP
General Partner or the Guarantor, a receiver, trustee or liquidator of the
Indenture Estate, the Owner Trustee (as Owner Trustee and not in its individual
capacity), the Owner Participant, the OP General Partner or the Guarantor, or of
any substantial part of its property, or granting any order for relief in
respect of the Owner Trustee (as Owner Trustee and not in its individual
capacity), the Owner Participant, the OP General Partner or the Guarantor under
the Federal bankruptcy laws, and any such order, judgment or decree of
appointment shall remain in force undismissed, unstayed or unvacated for a
period of 60 days after the date of entry thereof; or
(h) a petition against the Owner Trustee (as Owner Trustee and not in
its individual capacity), the Owner Participant, the OP General Partner or the
Guarantor, in a proceeding under the Federal bankruptcy laws or other insolvency
law, as now or hereafter in effect, shall be filed and shall not be withdrawn or
dismissed within 60 days thereafter, or if, under the provisions of any law
providing for reorganization or winding-up of corporations which may apply to
the Owner Trustee (as Owner Trustee and not in its individual capacity), the
Owner Participant, the OP General Partner or the Guarantor, any court of
competent jurisdiction shall assume jurisdiction, custody or control of the
Indenture Estate, the Owner Trustee (as Owner Trustee and not in its individual
capacity), the Owner Participant, the OP General Partner or the Guarantor or of
any substantial part of its property and such jurisdiction, custody or
18
control shall remain in force unrelinquished, unstayed or unterminated for a
period of 60 days; or
(i) any repudiation by the Guarantor of its obligations under the
Guaranty; or
(j) the Guaranty ceases to be in full force and effect.
Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, if an Indenture Event of
Default described in clause (e), (f), (g) or (h) of this Section 4.01 results
solely from the bankruptcy, reorganization, compromise, arrangement, insolvency,
readjustment of debt, dissolution or liquidation of Owner Trustee solely in its
individual capacity, and can be cured by the appointment of a substitute Owner
Trustee without adversely affecting the rights of the Indenture Trustee
hereunder, then Indenture Trustee shall refrain from the exercise of any of the
rights, powers or remedies pursuant to this Article IV for a period of 45 days
provided Owner Participant is diligently seeking to, and does replace the bank
or trust company then serving as Owner Trustee which replacement shall be deemed
to cure such Indenture Event of Default.
Section 4.02. Acceleration; Rescission and Annulment. If an
Indenture Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee may,
and upon the directions of a Majority in Interest shall, subject to Section
4.04, declare the unpaid principal amount of all Equipment Notes then
outstanding and accrued interest thereon to be due and payable, it being agreed
that no Make-Whole Amount or other premium should be payable in such event. At
any time after the Indenture Trustee has declared the unpaid principal amount of
all Equipment Notes then outstanding to be due and payable and prior to the sale
of any of the Indenture Estate pursuant to this Article IV, a Majority in
Interest, by written notice to the Owner Trustee, the Lessee and the Indenture
Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and thereby annul its
consequences if: (i) there has been paid to or deposited with the Indenture
Trustee an amount sufficient to pay all overdue installments of interest on the
Equipment Notes, and the principal on any Equipment Notes that has become due
otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, (ii) the rescission would
not conflict with any judgment or decree, and (iii) all other Indenture Defaults
and Indenture Events of Default, other than nonpayment of principal or interest
on the Equipment Notes that have become due solely because of such acceleration,
have been cured or waived.
Section 4.03. Remedies with Respect to Indenture Estate. (a) After
an Indenture Event of Default shall have occurred and so long as such Indenture
Event of Default shall be continuing, then and in every such case the Indenture
Trustee, as assignee hereunder of the Lease or as mortgagee hereunder of the
Equipment or otherwise, may, and when required pursuant to the provisions of
Article V hereof shall, subject to Sections 4.04 and 4.05, exercise any or all
of the rights and powers and pursue any and all of the remedies pursuant to
Section 15 of the Lease and this Article IV and may recover judgment in its own
name as Indenture Trustee against the Indenture Estate and may take possession
of all or any part of the Indenture Estate, and may exclude the Owner Trustee
and the Owner Participant and all persons claiming under any of them wholly or
partly therefrom; provided, however, that nothing in this Indenture shall permit
or require the Indenture Trustee to take any action contrary to, or to disturb,
the Lessee's rights under the Lease, except in accordance with the provisions of
the Lease.
19
(b) Subject to Section 4.04 and Section 4.05, the Indenture Trustee
may, if at the time such action may be lawful and always subject to compliance
with any mandatory legal requirements, either with or without taking possession,
and either before or after taking possession, and without instituting any legal
proceedings whatsoever, and having first given notice of such sale by registered
mail to the Owner Trustee, the Owner Participant and the Lessee once at least 20
days prior to the date of such sale or the date on which the Indenture Trustee
enters into a binding contract for a private sale, and any other notice which
may be required by law, sell and dispose of the Indenture Estate, or any part
thereof, or interest therein, at public auction to the highest bidder or at
private sale in one lot as an entirety or in separate lots, and either for cash
or on credit and on such terms as the Indenture Trustee may determine, and at
any place (whether or not it be the location of the Indenture Estate or any part
thereof) and time designated in the notice above referred to; provided, however,
that, notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Indenture
Trustee shall not sell any of the Indenture Estate or exercise any other
remedies which would result in the exclusion of the Owner Trustee from the
Indenture Estate or any part thereof unless a declaration of acceleration has
been made pursuant to Section 4.02; provided further, that, in the event the
circumstances contemplated by Section 4.04(c) exist, the Indenture Trustee shall
not be allowed to deliver the notice required by this Section 4.03(b) (x) until
the earlier of (1) such time as such circumstances no longer exist or (2) the
expiration of the 90 day period set forth in Section 4.04(c) or (y) if the
circumstances contemplated by the second proviso of Section 4.04(c) then exist.
Any such public sale or sales may be adjourned from time to time by announcement
at the time and place appointed for such sale or sales, or for any such
adjourned sale or sales, without further notice, and the Indenture Trustee or
the holder or holders of any Equipment Notes, or any interest therein, may bid
and become the purchaser at any such public sale. The Indenture Trustee may
exercise such right without possession or production of the Equipment Notes or
proof of ownership thereof, and as representative of the holders may exercise
such right without including the holders as parties to any suit or proceeding
relating to foreclosure of any property in the Indenture Estate. The Owner
Trustee hereby irrevocably constitutes the Indenture Trustee the true and lawful
attorney-in-fact of the Owner Trustee (in the name of the Owner Trustee or
otherwise) for the purpose of effectuating any sale, assignment, transfer or
delivery for enforcement of the Lien of this Indenture, whether pursuant to
foreclosure or power of sale or otherwise, to execute and deliver all such bills
of sale, assignments and other instruments as the Indenture Trustee may consider
necessary or appropriate, with full power of substitution, the Owner Trustee
hereby ratifying and confirming all that such attorney or any substitute shall
lawfully do by virtue hereof. Nevertheless, if so requested by the Indenture
Trustee or any purchaser, the Owner Trustee shall ratify and confirm any such
sale, assignment, transfer or delivery, by executing and delivering to the
Indenture Trustee or such purchaser all bills of sale, assignments, releases and
other proper instruments to effect such ratification and confirmation as may be
designated in any such request.
(c) Subject to Section 4.04 and Section 4.05, the Owner Trustee
agrees, to the fullest extent that it lawfully may, that, in case one or more of
the Indenture Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then, in
every such case, the Indenture Trustee may take possession of all or any part of
the Indenture Estate and may exclude the Owner Trustee and the Owner Participant
and all persons claiming under any of them wholly or partly therefrom. At the
request of the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee shall promptly execute and
deliver to the Indenture Trustee such instruments of title and other documents
as the Indenture Trustee may deem necessary or advisable to enable the Indenture
Trustee or an agent or representative
20
designated by the Indenture Trustee, at such time or times and place or places
as the Indenture Trustee may specify, to obtain possession of all or any part of
the Indenture Estate. If the Owner Trustee shall fail for any reason to execute
and deliver such instruments and documents to the Indenture Trustee, the
Indenture Trustee may pursue all or part of the Indenture Estate wherever it may
be found and may enter any of the premises of the Lessee wherever the Indenture
Estate may be or be supposed to be and search for the Indenture Estate and,
subject to Section 4.04 and Section 4.05, take possession of and remove the
Indenture Estate. Upon every such taking of possession, the Indenture Trustee
may, from time to time, at the expense of the Indenture Estate, make all such
expenditures for maintenance, insurance, repairs, replacements, alterations,
additions and improvements to any of the Indenture Estate, as it may deem
proper. In each such case, the Indenture Trustee shall have the right to use,
operate, store, control or manage the Indenture Estate, and to carry on the
business and to exercise all rights and powers of the Owner Trustee relating to
the Indenture Estate, as the Indenture Trustee shall deem best, including the
right to enter into any and all such agreements with respect to the maintenance,
operation, leasing or storage of the Indenture Estate or any part thereof as the
Indenture Trustee may determine; and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to
collect and receive all tolls, rents, revenues, issues, income, products and
profits of the Indenture Estate and every part thereof, without prejudice,
however, to the right of the Indenture Trustee under any provision of this
Indenture to collect and receive all cash held by, or required to be deposited
with, the Indenture Trustee hereunder. Such tolls, rents, revenues, issues,
income, products and profits shall be applied to pay the expenses of holding and
operating the Indenture Estate and of conducting the business thereof, and of
all maintenance, repairs, replacements, alterations, additions and improvements,
and to make all payments which the Indenture Trustee may be required or may
elect to make, if any, for taxes, assessments, insurance or other proper charges
upon the Indenture Estate or any part thereof (including the employment of
engineers and accountants to examine, inspect and make reports upon the
properties and books and records of the Indenture Estate), and all other
payments which the Indenture Trustee may be required or authorized to make under
any provision of this Indenture, as well as just and reasonable compensation for
the services of the Indenture Trustee, and of all persons properly engaged and
employed by the Indenture Trustee, including the reasonable expenses of the
Indenture Trustee.
(d) If an Indenture Event of Default occurs and is continuing and the
Indenture Trustee shall have obtained possession of a Unit, the Indenture
Trustee shall not be obligated to use or operate such Unit or cause such Unit to
be used or operated directly or indirectly by itself or through agents or other
representatives or to lease, license or otherwise permit or provide for the use
or operation of such Unit or Equipment by any other Person unless (i) the
Indenture Trustee shall have been able to obtain insurance in kinds, at rates
and in amounts satisfactory to it in its discretion to protect the Indenture
Estate and the Indenture Trustee, as trustee and individually, against any and
all liability for loss or damage to such Unit and for public liability and
property damage resulting from use or operation of such Unit and (ii) funds are
available in the Indenture Estate to pay for all such insurance or, in lieu of
such insurance, the Indenture Trustee is furnished with indemnification from the
holders of the Equipment Notes or any other Person upon terms and in amounts
satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee in its discretion to protect the Indenture
Estate and the Indenture Trustee, as trustee and individually, against any and
all such liabilities.
21
(e) Notwithstanding anything contained herein, so long as the Pass
Through Trustee under any Pass Through Trust Agreement is the registered holder
of any Equipment Note issued hereunder, the Indenture Trustee is not authorized
or empowered to acquire title to any Indenture Estate or take any action with
respect to any Indenture Estate so acquired by it if such acquisition or action
would cause the trust created by the Trust Agreement or the Pass Through Trust
Agreement to fail to qualify as a "grantor trust" for federal income tax
purposes.
Section 4.04. Right to Cure; Option to Purchase; Etc.
---------------------------------------
(a) Right to Cure. (A) If there shall occur a Lease Event of Default
in respect of the payment of Basic Rent pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Lease,
then as long as no other Indenture Event of Default (other than arising from
such failure to pay Basic Rent or which is concurrently being cured pursuant to
this Section 4.04(a)) shall have occurred and be continuing the Owner
Participant or the Owner Trustee may (but need not) pay to the Indenture
Trustee, at any time prior to the expiration of a period of 10 Business Days (a
"10-Day Period") after receiving written notice of such default from the
Indenture Trustee (prior to the expiration of which 10-Day Period the Indenture
Trustee shall not declare the Lease in default pursuant to Section 15 thereof or
exercise any of the rights, powers or remedies pursuant to such Section 15 or
this Article IV), an amount equal to the full amount of such payment of Basic
Rent, together with any interest due thereon on account of the delayed payment
thereof, and such payment by the Owner Participant or the Owner Trustee shall be
deemed to cure any Indenture Event of Default which arose from such failure of
the Lessee (but such cure shall not relieve the Lessee of any of its obligations
and shall not cure any other Indenture Event of Default) or (B) if there shall
occur a Lease Event of Default in respect of any other payment of Rent (other
than Basic Rent) or a Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, which Lease Event of Default is curable by the payment of money (it
being understood that actions such as the obtaining of insurance or the
procuring of maintenance services can be so effected), then as long as no other
Indenture Event of Default (other than arising from such Lease Event of Default
or which is concurrently being cured pursuant to this Section 4.04(a)) shall
have occurred and be continuing the Owner Participant or the Owner Trustee may
(but need not) pay to the Indenture Trustee, at any time prior to the expiration
of a period of 30 days (a "30-Day Period") after receiving written notice of
such Lease Event of Default from the Indenture Trustee (prior to the expiration
of which 30-Day Period the Indenture Trustee shall not declare the Lease in
default pursuant to Section 15 thereof or exercise any of the rights, powers or
remedies pursuant to such Section 15 or this Article IV), an amount equal to the
full amount of such payment of Rent, together with any interest due thereon on
account of the delayed payment thereof or otherwise make such payment as shall
effect such cure, and such payment by the Owner Participant or the Owner Trustee
shall be deemed to cure any Indenture Event of Default which arose from such
Lease Event of Default (but such cure shall not relieve the Lessee of any of its
obligations); provided however, Owner Participant and Owner Trustee,
collectively, shall not be entitled to (x) cure more than three consecutive or
six total defaults in the payment of Basic Rent, or (y) cure other Lease Events
of Default (other than the payment of Basic Rent) if the outstanding amount
which has been paid by the Owner Participant or the Owner Trustee and not
reimbursed to such parties by the Lessee pursuant to this clause (y) exceeds in
the aggregate $3,000,000. Upon any cure by the Owner Participant or the Owner
Trustee in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 4.04(a), the Owner
Participant or the Owner Trustee shall, to the extent of their respective
payments, be subrogated to the rights of the Indenture Trustee, as assignee
hereunder
22
of the Owner Trustee to receive such payment of Rent (and any interest due
thereon on account of the delayed payment thereof) or right of reimbursement,
and shall be entitled to receive such payment upon its receipt by the Indenture
Trustee as aforesaid (but in each case only if all amounts of principal and
interest at the time due and payable on the Equipment Notes shall have been paid
in full); provided that neither the Owner Participant nor the Owner Trustee
shall attempt to recover any such amount paid by it on behalf of the Lessee
pursuant to this Section 4.04(a) except by demanding of the Lessee payment of
such amount or by prosecuting an action against the Lessee to require the
payment of such amount; provided further, that with respect to any amounts
advanced by and owing to the Owner Trustee and the Owner Participant, the Owner
Trustee and the Owner Participant shall be expressly subordinated to the right
of the holders of the Equipment Notes to receive any and all amounts then due
and owing on the Equipment Notes prior to any payment from the Lessee to the
Owner Trustee or the Owner Participant.
(b) Option to Purchase Equipment Notes. In the event that (i) at any
time one or more Lease Events of Default shall have occurred and any such Lease
Event of Default shall have continued for a period of 180 days or more during
which time the Equipment Notes could, but shall not, have been accelerated
pursuant to Section 4.02, (ii) the Equipment Notes shall have been accelerated
pursuant to Section 4.02 or (iii) the Indenture Trustee, as assignee hereunder
of the Lease, shall have declared the Lease to be in default and shall have
commenced the exercise of any additional remedy in respect of the Units under
the Lease, then and in any such case, upon 30 days' notice (which notice shall
be irrevocable) from the Owner Trustee to the Indenture Trustee designating a
date of purchase (the "Purchase Date") which shall be a Determination Date, each
holder of an Equipment Note will be obligated to, upon and subject to receipt by
the Indenture Trustee from the Owner Trustee or its nominee of an amount equal
to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Equipment Notes, together with
accrued interest thereon to the Purchase Date, plus all other sums then due and
payable to such holder of an Equipment Note hereunder, but without any Make-
Whole Amount or other premium, forthwith sell, assign, transfer and convey to
the Owner Trustee or its nominee on the Purchase Date all of the right, title
and interest of such holder in and to the Equipment Notes then held by such
holder, and the Owner Trustee or its nominee shall assume all of such holder's
obligations under the Participation Agreement; provided that the Owner Trustee
or its nominee must purchase all and not less than all of the Equipment Notes
then outstanding. During such 30-day notice period, the Indenture Trustee shall
not exercise any of the rights, remedies or powers pursuant to Section 15 of the
Lease or this Article IV, so long as the Owner Participant (or any nominee of
the Owner Participant reasonably acceptable to the Indenture Trustee) has
notified the Indenture Trustee that the notice so provided by the Owner Trustee
or its nominee pursuant to this Section 4.04(b) constitutes the binding
obligation of the Owner Trustee or its nominee to purchase the Equipment Notes.
(c) Restrictions on Certain Actions. Notwithstanding any provision of
this Indenture to the contrary, the Indenture Trustee shall not foreclose the
Lien of this Indenture or otherwise exercise remedies hereunder which would
result in the exclusion of the Owner Trustee from the Indenture Estate or any
part thereof as a result of an Indenture Event of Default that constitutes or
occurs solely by virtue of one or more Lease Events of Default (at a time when
no other Indenture Event of Default unrelated to any Lease Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing) unless the Indenture Trustee as security
assignee of the Owner Trustee has
23
proceeded or is then currently proceeding, to the extent it is then entitled to
do so hereunder and under the Lease and is not then stayed or otherwise
prevented from doing so by operation of law, to exercise one (or more, as it
shall in its good faith discretion determine) of the comparable remedies
provided for in Section 15 of the Lease with respect to the Equipment, provided
that in the event the Indenture Trustee shall be so stayed or otherwise
prevented from exercising such remedies under the Lease, it shall in any event
refrain from so foreclosing or exercising such other remedies hereunder for a
period of not less than 90 days, and further provided that in the event the
Lessee as debtor in a proceeding under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (or any
trustee appointed for the Lessee as debtor in any such bankruptcy case) shall
have assumed the Lease with the approval of the bankruptcy court having
jurisdiction over such case, under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code or any
amended or successor version thereof, and no Lease Event of Default other than
as specified in Section 14(g) or Section 14(h) of the Lease has occurred and is
continuing and no Indenture Event of Default unrelated to a Lease Event of
Default occurring solely pursuant to Section 14(g) or 14(h) of the Lease shall
have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall refrain from so
foreclosing or exercising such other remedies hereunder. Nothing in this Section
4.04(c) shall prevent the Indenture Trustee from foreclosing or exercising such
other remedies hereunder to the extent the Lessee fails to comply with any
provisions of any order issued in connection with the assumption of the Lease.
Section 4.05. Rights of Lessee. Notwithstanding the provisions of
this Indenture, including, without limitation, Section 4.03, so long as no Lease
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, neither the Indenture
Trustee nor the Owner Trustee shall take any action contrary to, or disturb, the
Lessee's rights under the Lease, except in accordance with the provisions of the
Lease, including, without limitation, (i) the right to receive all monies due
and payable to it in accordance with the provisions of the Lease and (ii) the
Lessee's rights to possession and use of, and of quiet enjoyment of, the
Equipment.
Section 4.06. Waiver of Existing Defaults. A Majority in Interest by
notice to the Indenture Trustee on behalf of all holders of the Equipment Notes
may waive any past default hereunder and its consequences, except a default:
(i) in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any
Equipment Note, or (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under
Article IX hereof cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the
holder of each Equipment Note affected. Upon any such waiver, such default
shall cease to exist, and any Indenture Event of Default arising therefrom shall
be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such
waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right
consequent thereon.
Article V.
Duties of the Indenture Trustee
Section 5.01. Action upon Indenture Event of Default. If any payments
of Basic Rent or payments of the principal or interest or premium, if any, on
the Equipment Notes due and payable on any Rent Payment Date shall not have been
paid in full on such Rent Payment Date, the Indenture Trustee shall give
telephonic notice within one Business Day (followed by prompt written notice) to
the Owner Trustee, the Owner Participant, the Loan Participant and the Lessee
specifying the amount and nature of such deficiency in payment. In the event the
Indenture Trustee shall have knowledge of an Indenture Event of Default or an
Indenture Default, the
24
Indenture Trustee shall give prompt notice of such Indenture Event of Default or
Indenture Default to the Lessee, the Owner Trustee, the Owner Participant and
the Loan Participant by telegram, facsimile, or telephone (to be promptly
confirmed in writing). In the event the Owner Trustee shall have knowledge of an
Indenture Event of Default or an Indenture Default, the Owner Trustee shall give
notice of such Indenture Event of Default or Indenture Default in the same
manner to the Lessee, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Participant and the Loan
Participant. Subject to the terms of Section 5.03, the Indenture Trustee shall
take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such
Indenture Event of Default or Indenture Default as the Indenture Trustee shall
be instructed in writing by a Majority in Interest. If the Indenture Trustee
shall not have received instructions as above provided within 20 days after the
mailing of notice of such Indenture Event of Default or such Indenture Default
to the Loan Participant by the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee may, but
shall not be obligated to, take such action, or refrain from taking such action,
with respect to such Indenture Event of Default or Indenture Default as it shall
determine to be advisable in the best interests of the Loan Participant. Any
provision of this Section 5.01 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Indenture
Trustee shall not declare the Lease to be in default solely in respect of the
Lessee's failure to make any payment of Basic Rent within 10 Business Days after
the same shall have become due, unless the 10-Day Period within which, pursuant
to Section 4.04(a), the Owner Participant or the Owner Trustee are entitled to
cure such failure shall have expired. For all purposes of this Indenture, in the
absence of actual knowledge, neither the Owner Trustee nor the Indenture Trustee
shall be deemed to have knowledge of an Indenture Event of Default (except, in
the case of the Indenture Trustee, the failure of the Lessee to pay any
installment of Basic Rent that is required to be paid directly to the Indenture
Trustee within the 10 Business Days after the same shall become due or the
failure of the Lessee to maintain insurance as required under Section 12 of the
Lease if the Indenture Trustee shall receive notice thereof from an insurer or
insurance broker) unless notified in writing by the Lessee, the Owner Trustee,
one or more Loan Participants or the Owner Participant; and "actual knowledge"
(as used in the foregoing clause) of the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee
shall mean actual knowledge of an officer in the Corporate Trust Administration
of the Owner Trustee or the Corporate Trust Department of the Indenture Trustee,
as the case may be.
Section 5.02. Action upon Instructions. Subject to the terms of
Sections 5.01 and 5.03, upon the written instructions at any time and from time
to time of a Majority in Interest, the Indenture Trustee shall take such of the
following actions as may be specified in such instructions (subject to the
rights of the other parties thereto, except to the extent assigned hereunder):
(i) subject to and solely to the extent permitted by the terms hereof and of the
Lease, give such notice, direction or consent, or exercise such right, remedy or
power hereunder or under the Lease or in respect of any part or all of the
Indenture Estate or take such other action as shall be specified in such
instructions; and (ii) after an Indenture Event of Default shall have occurred
and so long as such Indenture Event of Default shall be continuing, approve as
satisfactory to it all matters required by the terms of the Lease to be
satisfactory to the Owner Trustee, it being understood that without the written
instructions of a Majority in Interest the Indenture Trustee shall not take any
action described in clauses (i) and (ii) above.
Upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term with
respect to any Unit under the Lease and after payment of the portion of the
principal of, together with interest and premium, if any, on the Equipment Notes
in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, or,
25
if and so long as no Indenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, upon the transfer by the Owner Trustee to the Lessee or its designee
of any Unit pursuant to Section 10 or 11 of the Lease or the retention by the
Owner Trustee of any Unit pursuant to Section 10.3 of the Lease, then the
Indenture Trustee shall in either such case, upon the written request of the
Owner Trustee, and receipt by the Indenture Trustee of funds necessary to prepay
the Equipment Notes required to be prepaid in connection with such purchase,
termination, retention or Event of Loss, execute and deliver to, or as directed
in writing by, the Owner Trustee an appropriate instrument (in due form for
recording) furnished by the Owner Trustee or the Lessee releasing such property
from the Lien of this Indenture.
Section 5.03. Indemnification.
---------------
(a) The Indenture Trustee shall not be required to take any action or
refrain from taking any action under Section 5.01 (other than the first two
sentences thereof) or 5.02 or Article IV if it shall have reasonable grounds for
believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnification against such
risk is not reasonably assured to it. The Indenture Trustee shall not be
required to take any action under Section 5.01 or 5.02 or Article IV, nor shall
any other provision of this Indenture be deemed to impose a duty on the
Indenture Trustee to take any action, if the Indenture Trustee shall have been
advised in writing by independent counsel that such action is contrary to the
terms hereof or of the Lease or the Participation Agreement, or is otherwise
contrary to law.
(b) Each Loan Participant may, but shall not be required to,
participate in any indemnification of the Indenture Trustee given pursuant to
paragraph (a) of this Section 5.03. Each Loan Participant so participating shall
be entitled to reimbursement for such participation in accordance with Article
III.
Section 5.04. No Duties Except as Specified in Indenture or
Instructions. The Indenture Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to
manage, control, use, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with the Equipment or
any other part of the Indenture Estate, or to otherwise take or refrain from
taking any action under, or in connection with, this Indenture, the Lease, or
the Participation Agreement, except as expressly provided by the terms of this
Indenture or as expressly provided in written instructions received pursuant to
the terms of Section 5.01 or 5.02; and no implied duties or obligations shall be
read into this Indenture against the Indenture Trustee. Each of the Owner
Trustee (only in its individual capacity) and the Indenture Trustee nevertheless
agrees that it will, at its own cost and expense, promptly take such action as
may be necessary duly to discharge any liens or encumbrances on any part of the
Indenture Estate, or on any properties of the Owner Trustee assigned, pledged or
mortgaged as part of the Indenture Estate, which result from claims against it
in its individual capacity not related to the ownership of the Equipment (in the
case of the Owner Trustee), administration of the Indenture Estate (in the case
of the Indenture Trustee) or any other transaction under this Indenture or the
Trust Agreement or any document included in the Indenture Estate.
Section 5.05. No Action Except under Lease, Indenture or
Instructions. The Indenture Trustee agrees that it will not manage, control,
use, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with the Equipment or other property
constituting part of the Indenture Estate except (i) as required by the terms of
the Lease and the Participation Agreement, (ii) in accordance with the
26
powers granted to, or the authority conferred upon, the Indenture Trustee
pursuant to this Indenture, or (iii) in accordance with the express terms hereof
or with written instructions pursuant to Section 5.01 or 5.02.
Section 5.06. Disposition of Units. At any time and from time to time
prior to the expiration of the Lease Term, any Unit for which the provisions of
Section 11.4(a) of the Lease has been satisfied may be disposed of in accordance
with the provisions of Section 11.4(a) of the Lease, and the Owner Trustee
shall, from time to time, direct the Indenture Trustee to, provided no Lease
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, execute and deliver to
it, or as directed in writing by the Owner Trustee, an appropriate instrument
furnished by the Owner Trustee or the Lessee releasing such Unit from the Lien
of the Indenture, but only in respect of such Unit.
Section 5.07. Indenture Supplements for Replacements. In the event of
a Replacement Unit being substituted as contemplated by Section 11.2 of the
Lease, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee agree for the benefit of the
holders of the Equipment Notes and the Lessee, subject to compliance by the
Lessee with its obligations set forth in Section 11 of the Lease, to execute and
deliver an Indenture Supplement substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto
and, provided no Lease Event of Default or Lease Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, execute and deliver to the Lessee an appropriate instrument
releasing the Unit being replaced from the Lien of the Indenture.
Section 5.08. Effect of Replacements. In the event of the
substitution of a Replacement Unit, all provisions of this Indenture relating to
the Unit or Units being replaced shall be applicable to such Replacement Unit
with the same force and effect as if such Replacement Unit was the same Unit
being replaced.
Section 5.09. Withholding Taxes. The Indenture Trustee, as agent for
the Owner Trustee, shall exclude and withhold from each payment of principal,
premium, if any, and interest and other amounts due hereunder or under the
Equipment Notes any and all withholding taxes applicable thereto as required by
law. The Indenture Trustee agrees to act as such withholding agent and, in
connection therewith, whenever any present or future taxes or similar charges
are required to be withheld with respect to any amounts payable in respect of
the Equipment Notes, to withhold such amounts and timely pay the same to the
appropriate authority in the name of and on behalf of the holders of the
Equipment Notes, that it will file any necessary withholding tax returns or
statements when due, and that, as promptly as possible after the payment
thereof, it will deliver to each holder of an Equipment Note appropriate
documentation showing the payment thereof, together with such additional
documentary evidence as such holders may reasonably request from time to time.
Section 5.10. Lessee's Right of Quiet Enjoyment. Notwithstanding any
of the provisions of this Indenture to the contrary, so long as Lessee is in
compliance with its obligations under the Lease (including applicable grace
periods) and no Lease Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
unremedied, the Indenture Trustee will comply with Section 8 of the
Participation Agreement to the same extent as if it were the Lessor under the
Lease. Each holder of an Equipment Note, by its acceptance thereof, consents in
all respects to the terms of the Lease and the Participation Agreement and
agrees to the provisions of this Section 5.10.
27
Article VI.
The Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee
Section 6.01. Acceptance of Trusts and Duties. The Indenture Trustee
accepts the trusts hereby created and applicable to it and agrees to perform the
same but only upon the terms of this Indenture and agrees to receive and
disburse all moneys received by it constituting part of the Indenture Estate in
accordance with the terms hereof. The Indenture Trustee shall not be answerable
or accountable under any circumstances, except for its own willful misconduct or
gross negligence (or negligence or willful misconduct in the case of application
or investment of moneys constituting the Indenture Estate) or breach of any of
its representations or warranties or covenants set forth herein or in the
Participation Agreement, or the performance of its obligations under the last
sentence of Section 5.04; and the Owner Trustee shall not be liable for any
action or inaction of the Indenture Trustee and the Indenture Trustee shall not
be liable for any action or inaction of the Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee
shall not be deemed a trustee for, or agent of, the holders of the Equipment
Notes for any purpose.
Section 6.02. Absence of Duties. Except in accordance with written
instructions or requests furnished pursuant to Section 5.01 or Section 5.02 and
except as provided in, and without limiting the generality of, Section 5.04, the
Indenture Trustee shall have no duty (i) to see to any registration of the
Equipment or any recording or filing of the Lease, or of this Indenture or any
other document, or to see to the maintenance of any such registration, recording
or filing, (ii) to see to any insurance on the Equipment or to effect or
maintain any such insurance, whether or not the Lessee shall be in default with
respect thereto, (iii) to confirm, verify or inquire into the failure to receive
any financial statements of the Lessee or (iv) to inspect the Equipment at any
time or ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the
Lessee's covenants under the Lease with respect to the Equipment.

to the Participation Agreement, certified by the Secretary or an Assistant
Secretary of such party as duly adopted and in full force and effect, as

of ascertainment of which is not specifically described herein, the Indenture
Trustee may for all purposes hereof rely on a certificate, signed by an officer
of the Lessee, as to such fact or matter, and such certificate shall constitute

documents as the Indenture Trustee may have and as are necessary for the Owner

is authorized by the Trust Agreement to enter into this
29
Indenture and to take all action permitted to be taken by it pursuant to the

or omitted in good faith by it in accordance with the written advice or opinion

by reason of the transactions contemplated hereby shall, subject to the Lien and
priorities of payment as herein provided, look only to the Indenture Estate for
payment or satisfaction thereof.
Article VII.
Certain Limitations on Owner Trustee's and Indenture Trustee's Rights
Each of the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee agree that it
shall have no right against the holders of the Equipment Notes or the Indenture
Estate (except in the case of the Indenture Trustee as expressly provided in
Section 4.03 hereof) for any fee as compensation for its services hereunder or
any expenses or disbursements incurred in connection with the exercise and

Trustee appointed as provided above shall be superseded by the successor
Indenture Trustee so appointed by a Majority in Interest. If a successor
Indenture Trustee shall not have been appointed and accepted its appointment

or is removed as provided above, the retiring Indenture Trustee, the Lessee, the
Owner Trustee or a Majority in Interest may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee. Any successor
Indenture Trustee so appointed by such court shall immediately and without
further act be superseded by any successor Indenture Trustee appointed as
provided in the proviso to the first sentence of this paragraph (a) within one
year from the date of the appointment by such court.

and deliver to the Owner Trustee and the Lessee and to the predecessor Indenture
Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon such successor
Indenture Trustee, without further act, shall become vested with all the
estates, properties, rights, powers, duties and trusts of the predecessor
Indenture Trustee hereunder in the trusts hereunder applicable to it with like
effect as if originally named the Indenture Trustee herein; but nevertheless,
upon the written request of such successor Indenture Trustee, such predecessor
Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such
Indenture Trustee, upon the trusts herein expressed applicable to it, all the
estates, properties, rights, powers and trusts of such predecessor Indenture
Trustee, and such Indenture Trustee shall duly assign, transfer, deliver and pay
over to such successor Indenture Trustee all moneys or other property then held
by such predecessor Indenture Trustee hereunder.

under the laws of the United States or any State thereof having a combined
capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000, if there be such an institution
willing, able and legally qualified to perform the duties of the Indenture
Trustee hereunder upon reasonable or customary terms.

converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting
from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Indenture Trustee
shall be a party, or any corporation to which substantially all the corporate
trust business of the Indenture Trustee may be transferred,

Section 2.05. Application of Payments to Principal Amount and

payment of accrued but unpaid interest on such Equipment Note then due
thereunder, second, to the payment of the unpaid principal amount of such
------
Equipment Note then due thereunder, third, to the payment of any premium then
-----
due thereon and fourth, to the payment of the remaining outstanding principal

3.03 hereof.
Section 2.06. Termination of Interest in Indenture Estate. A holder
-------------------------------------------
shall have no further interest in, or other right with respect to, the Indenture
Estate when and if the principal amount of and interest on all Equipment Notes
held by such holder and all other sums payable to such holder hereunder and
under such Equipment Notes and under the Participation Agreement shall have been
paid in full.
Section 2.07. Transfer of Equipment Notes. The Indenture Trustee
---------------------------
shall maintain at its corporate trust administration office in Chicago, Illinois
or in the city in which the corporate trust office of a successor Indenture
Trustee is located, a register for the purpose of registering transfers and
exchanges of Equipment Notes. A holder of an Equipment Note intending to
transfer such Equipment Note to a new payee, or to exchange any Equipment Note
or Equipment Notes of any Series held by it for an Equipment Note or Equipment
Notes of a different denomination or denominations, may surrender such Equipment
Note or Equipment Notes to the Indenture Trustee at such principal corporate
trust administration office of the Indenture Trustee, together with a written
request from such holder for the issuance of a new
9
Equipment Note or Equipment Notes of such Series, specifying the denomination or
denominations (each of which shall be not less than $1,000,000 or a whole
multiple thereof or such smaller denomination as may be necessary due to the
original issuance of Equipment Notes of the applicable maturity in an aggregate
principal amount not evenly divisible by $1,000,000) of the same, and, in the
case of a surrender for registration of transfer, the name and address of the
transferee or transferees. Promptly upon receipt of such documents, the Owner
Trustee will issue, and the Indenture Trustee will authenticate, a new Equipment
Note or Equipment Notes in the same aggregate principal amount and dated the
same date or dates as, with the same payment schedule, in the form set forth in
Section 2.01 in the same maturity and bearing the same interest rate as the
Equipment Note or Equipment Notes surrendered, in such denomination or
denominations and payable to such payee or payees as shall be specified in the
written request from such holder. All Equipment Notes issued upon any
registration of transfer or exchange of Equipment Notes shall be the valid
obligations of the Owner Trustee evidencing the same respective obligations, and
entitled to the same security and benefits under this Indenture, as the
Equipment Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. The
Indenture Trustee shall make a notation on each new Equipment Note or Equipment
Notes of the amount of all payments or prepayments of principal and interest
previously made on the old Equipment Note or Equipment Notes with respect to
which such new Equipment Note or Equipment Notes is or are issued. From time to
time, the Indenture Trustee will provide the Owner Trustee and the Lessee with
such information as it may request as to the registered holders of Equipment
Notes. The Owner Trustee shall not be required to exchange any surrendered
Equipment Notes as above provided during the 10-day period preceding the due
date of any payment on such Equipment Notes.
Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of an
Equipment Note, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee may deem and treat
the registered holder of such Equipment Note as the absolute owner and holder of
such Equipment Note for the purpose of receiving payment of all amounts payable
with respect to such Equipment Note and for all other purposes and shall not be
affected by any notice to the contrary.
The Indenture Trustee will promptly notify the Owner Trustee and the
Lessee of each request for a registration of transfer of an Equipment Note. The
Indenture Trustee will promptly cancel and destroy all Equipment Notes
surrendered for transfer or exchange pursuant to this Section.
Section 2.08. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Equipment Notes. If
----------------------------------------------------
any Equipment Note of any Series shall become mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen, the Owner Trustee shall, upon the written request of the holder of such
Equipment Note, issue, and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver
in replacement thereof, a new Equipment Note of such Series in the form set
forth in Section 2.01, payable to the same holder in the same principal amount,
of the same maturity, with the same payment schedule, bearing the same interest
rate and dated the same date as the Equipment Note so mutilated, destroyed, lost
or stolen. The Indenture Trustee shall make a notation on each new Equipment
Note of the amount of all payments or prepayments of principal and interest
theretofore made on the Equipment Note so mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
and the date to which interest on such old Equipment Note has been paid. If the
Equipment Note being replaced has become mutilated, such Equipment Note shall be
surrendered to the Indenture Trustee and forwarded to the Owner Trustee by the
10
Indenture Trustee. If the Equipment Note being replaced has been destroyed, lost
or stolen, the holder of such Equipment Note shall furnish to the Owner Trustee
and the Indenture Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them
to save the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee harmless and evidence
satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee of the destruction,
loss or theft of such Equipment Note and of the ownership thereof.
Section 2.09. Payment of Transfer Taxes. Upon the transfer of any
-------------------------
Equipment Note or Equipment Notes pursuant to Section 2.07, the Owner Trustee or
the Indenture Trustee may require from the party requesting such new Equipment
Note or Equipment Notes payment of a sum to reimburse the Owner Trustee or the
Indenture Trustee for, or to provide funds for the payment of, any tax or other
governmental charge in connection therewith.
Section 2.10. Prepayments. (a) Each Equipment Note of any Series
-----------
shall be prepaid in whole or in part by the Owner Trustee on a Rent Payment Date
(or, in the circumstance provided in the last sentence of Section 10.3 of the
Lease, on a Determination Date) upon at least 25 days' prior notice from the
Owner Trustee (or the Lessee on its behalf) to the Indenture Trustee in the
event that the Lease as applicable to any Unit or Units related to such
Equipment Note is terminated pursuant to Section 10 thereof, at a price equal to
the sum of (i) as to principal thereof, an amount equal to the product obtained
by multiplying the unpaid principal amount of such Equipment Note as at the date
of such prepayment (after deducting therefrom the principal installment, if any,
due on or prior to the date of such prepayment) by a fraction, the numerator of
which shall be the Equipment Cost of such Unit or Units and the denominator of
which shall be the aggregate Equipment Cost of all Units of the relevant Basic
Group included in the Indenture Estate under the related Indenture Supplement
immediately prior to the date of such prepayment, (ii) as to interest, the
aggregate amount of interest accrued and unpaid in respect of the principal
amount to be prepaid pursuant to clause (i) above on the date of such payment
(after giving effect to the application of any Basic Rent paid on or prior to
the date of such prepayment) and (iii) a premium in an amount equal to the Make-
Whole Amount, if any, applicable in respect of the principal amount to be
prepaid pursuant to clause (i) above on the date of such prepayment.
(b) Each Equipment Note of any Series shall be prepaid in whole or in
part by the Owner Trustee on a Rent Payment Date upon at least 25 days' prior
notice from the Owner Trustee (or the Lessee on its behalf) to the Indenture
Trustee in connection with the occurrence of an Event of Loss or the deemed
occurrence of an Event of Loss pursuant to Section 9.1 of the Lease with respect
to any Unit or Units related to such Equipment Note if such Unit or Units are
not replaced pursuant to Section 11.2(i) of the Lease, or in the event Lessee
shall be required to settle for 15 or more Units on a Determination Date
pursuant to Section 11.2 of the Lease, such prepayment shall be made on such
Determination Date, at a price equal to the sum of (i) as to principal thereof,
an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying the aggregate unpaid
principal amount of such Equipment Note as at such prepayment date (after
deducting therefrom the principal installment, if any, due on such date) by a
fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Equipment Cost of such Unit or
Units and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate Equipment Cost of all
Units of the relevant Basic Group included in the Indenture Estate under the
related Indenture Supplement immediately prior to such date, and (ii) as to
interest, the aggregate amount of interest accrued and unpaid in respect of the
principal amount to be prepaid pursuant to clause (i) above to but not including
the date of prepayment after giving effect to the
11
application of any Basic Rent paid on or prior to the date of such prepayment,
but without the payment of any Make-Whole Amount or other premium.
(c) Unless Lessee shall have elected pursuant to Section 6.9 of the
Participation Agreement or Section 22.1 of the Lease to assume all of the rights
and obligations of the Owner Trustee under this Indenture in respect of the
Equipment Notes of any Series, each Equipment Note of such Series shall be
prepaid in whole or in part by the Owner Trustee on the Determination Date
specified by Lessee to Owner Trustee and Indenture Trustee in accordance with
Section 6.9 of the Participation Agreement or Section 22.1 of the Lease, as the
case may be, in the event that Lessee exercises a purchase option under Section
6.9 of the Participation Agreement or Section 22.1 of the Lease, as the case may
be, with respect to any Unit or Units related to such Equipment Note, at a price
equal to the sum of (i) as to principal thereof, an amount equal to the product
obtained by multiplying the aggregate unpaid principal amount of such Equipment
Note as at the date of any prepayment under Section 6.9 of the Participation
Agreement or Section 22.1 of the Lease, as the case may be (after deducting
therefrom the principal installment, if any, due on the prepayment date) by a
fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Equipment Cost of such Unit or
Units to be purchased and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate
Equipment Cost of all Units of the relevant Basic Group included in the
Indenture Estate under the related Indenture Supplement immediately prior to the
date of such prepayment, (ii) as to interest, the aggregate amount of interest
accrued and unpaid in respect of the principal amount to be prepaid pursuant to
clause (i) above on the date of such prepayment after giving effect to the
application of any Basic Rent paid on or prior to the date of such prepayment,
and (iii) a premium in an amount equal to the aggregate Make-Whole Amount, if
any, applicable in respect of the principal amount to be prepaid pursuant to
clause (i) above on the date of such payment.

Trustee in accordance with Section 10.2(f) of the Participation Agreement, all
Equipment Notes shall be prepaid in whole but not in part on such Refunding
Date, in the event of a refunding or refinancing pursuant to Section 10.2 of the
Participation Agreement, at a price in addition to any other amounts due to the
holders of the Equipment Notes under this Indenture equal to the unpaid
principal amount thereof together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon,
plus, a premium in an amount equal to the Make-Whole Amount, if any.
(e) The Indenture Trustee shall give prompt notice of any prepayment
of any Equipment Notes to all holders of the Equipment Notes as soon as the
Indenture Trustee shall have knowledge that such prepayment is expected to
occur, which notice shall specify the Equipment Note or Notes to be prepaid, the
principal amount of such Equipment Note or Notes to be prepaid and the expected
date of prepayment which date shall be not less than 25 days after the date of
such notice.
Section 2.11. Equally and Ratably Secured. All Equipment Notes at any
---------------------------
time outstanding under this Indenture shall be equally and ratably secured
hereby without preference, priority or distinction on account of the date or
dates or the actual time or times of the issue or maturity of such Equipment
Notes so that all Equipment Notes at any time issued and outstanding hereunder
shall have the same rights, Liens and preferences under and by virtue of this
Indenture.

directly or through the Lessee from any insurer pursuant to Section 12 of the
Lease with respect thereto as the result of an Event of Loss, to the extent such
amounts are not at the time required
13
to be paid to the Lessee pursuant to said Section 12, shall be applied as
provided in clause (a) of this Section 3.02.
Section 3.03. Payments after Indenture Event of Default.
-----------------------------------------
(a) Except as provided in Section 3.05, all payments received and
amounts realized by the Indenture Trustee after an Indenture Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing and after the Indenture Trustee has
declared (as assignee from the Owner Trustee of the Lease) the Lease to be in
default pursuant to Section 15 thereof or has declared the Equipment Notes to be
accelerated pursuant to Section 4.02, as the case may be, or has elected to
foreclose or otherwise exercise any remedies under this Indenture (including any
amounts realized by the Indenture Trustee from the exercise of any remedies
pursuant to Section 15 of the Lease, or Article IV), as well as all payments or
amounts then held or thereafter received by the Indenture Trustee as part of the
Indenture Estate while such Indenture Event of Default shall be continuing,
shall be distributed forthwith by the Indenture Trustee in the following order
of priority:
First, so much of such payments or amounts as shall be required
-----
to reimburse the Indenture Trustee for any fees which are due and payable
for its services under this Indenture and any tax, expense (including
reasonable attorney's fees) or other loss incurred by the Indenture Trustee
(to the extent reimbursable and not previously reimbursed and to the extent
incurred in connection with its duties as Indenture Trustee) shall be
distributed to the Indenture Trustee;
Second, so much of such payments or amounts as shall be required
-------
to reimburse the holders of the Equipment Notes for payments made by them
to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 5.03 (to the extent not

without priority of one over the other, in accordance with the amount of
the payment or payments made by, or payable to, each such holder;
Third, so much of such payments or amounts remaining as shall be
-----
required to pay the principal of, and premium, if any, to the extent

Participant, then due and payable, whether by declaration of acceleration
pursuant to Section 4.02 or otherwise, and in case the aggregate amount so
to be distributed shall be insufficient to pay in full the aforesaid
amounts, then, ratably, without priority of one over the other, in the
proportion that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Equipment
Notes held by each such holder, plus the accrued but unpaid interest
thereon to the date of distribution, bears to the aggregate unpaid
principal amount of all Equipment Notes, plus the accrued but unpaid
interest thereon to the date of distribution; and
Fourth, the balance, if any, of such payments or amounts
-------
remaining thereafter shall be distributed to the Owner Trustee for
distribution in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement.
14
(b) Except as provided in Sections 3.03(a) and 3.05, if an Indenture
Default or Indenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the
Indenture Trustee shall not make any distribution to the Owner Trustee but shall
hold amounts otherwise distributable to the Owner Trustee as collateral security
for the obligations secured hereby and invested as provided in Section 6.04(b)
until the earliest to occur of (a) the date on which such Indenture Default or
Indenture Event of Default shall have been cured or waived, and (b) such
acceleration occurs and such amounts are applied pursuant to Section 3.03(a);
provided, that if any amounts are held pursuant to this Section 3.03(b) for a
--------
period of 180 days during which time the Equipment Notes could, but shall not
have been, accelerated, then (x) all amounts then held by the Indenture Trustee
under this Section 3.03(b) with respect to such Indenture Default or Indenture
Event of Default which have been so held for at least 90 days shall on the 181st
day be distributed to the Owner Trustee for distribution in accordance with the
terms of the Trust Agreement and (y) any such amounts which are being held
pursuant to this Section 3.03(b) with respect to such Indenture Default or
Indenture Event of Default but which have not been held for at least 90 days
shall, on the 91st day following the date on which such amount was initially
received by the Indenture Trustee, thereafter be distributed to the Owner
Trustee for distribution in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement.
Section 3.04. Other Payments. Except as otherwise provided in
--------------
Section 3.03 or 3.05, (a) any payments received by the Indenture Trustee for
which no provision as to the application thereof is made in the Lease or the
Participation Agreement or elsewhere in this Article III, and (b) all payments
received and amounts realized by the Indenture Trustee under the Lease or
otherwise with respect to the Equipment to the extent received or realized at
any time after payment in full of the principal of and interest and premium, if
any, on all Equipment Notes, as well as any other amounts remaining as part of
the Indenture Estate after payment in full of the principal of and interest and
premium, if any, shall be distributed forthwith by the Indenture Trustee in the
order of priority set forth in Section 3.03(a), except that in the case of any
payment described in clause (b) above, such payment shall be distributed
omitting clause "third" of such Section 3.03(a) on all Equipment Notes issued
-----
hereunder.
Any payments received by the Indenture Trustee for which provision as
to the application thereof is made in the Lease or the Participation Agreement
but not elsewhere in this Indenture shall be applied to the purposes for which
such payments were made in accordance with the provisions of the Lease or the
Participation Agreement, as the case may be.
Section 3.05. Distribution of Excepted Property. All amounts
---------------------------------
constituting Excepted Property received by the Indenture Trustee shall be paid
promptly by the Indenture Trustee to the Person or Persons entitled thereto.
Section 3.06. Assumption of Obligations of Owner Trustee by the
-------------------------------------------------
Lessee. In the event that the Lessee shall have elected to assume all of the
------
rights and obligations of the Owner Trustee under this Indenture in respect of
the Equipment Notes on a full recourse basis in connection with the purchase by
the Lessee of Units pursuant to Section 6.9 of the Participation Agreement or
Section 22.1 of the Lease and, if on or prior to the applicable purchase date:
15
(a) The Lessee shall have delivered to the Indenture Trustee and the
Owner Trustee a certificate, dated the date of such purchase, of a Responsible
Officer of the Lessee stating that the Lessee has paid to the Owner Trustee all
amounts required to be paid to the Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 3.3 of the
Lease in connection with such purchase and assumption;
(b) no Indenture Default shall have occurred and be continuing
immediately subsequent to such purchase or assumption after giving effect to the
indenture supplement referred to below and the Indenture Trustee and the Owner
Trustee shall have received a certificate, dated the date of such purchase, of a
Responsible Officer of the Lessee to such effect;
(c) the Indenture Trustee shall have received, on or prior to the date
of such purchase, evidence of all filings, recordings and other action referred
to in the opinion or opinions of counsel referred to below;
(d) the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee shall have received an
opinion or opinions of counsel for the Lessee, dated the date of such purchase
which without unusual qualification and permitting reliance on proposed Treasury
Regulations shall be to the effect that, after giving effect to the indenture
supplement referred to below:
(i) this Indenture, the indenture supplement referred to below
and the Equipment Notes issued thereunder each constitutes the legal, valid
and binding obligation of the Lessee, enforceable against the Lessee in
accordance with their respective terms, except as the same may be limited
by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar
laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and by general principles
of equity, and except as limited by applicable laws which may affect the
remedies provided for in this Indenture, which laws, however, do not in the
opinion of such counsel make the remedies provided for in this Agreement
inadequate for the practical realization of the rights and benefits
provided for in this Indenture;
(ii) all filings and recordings and other action necessary or
appropriate to protect the interests of the Indenture Trustee in the Units
to be so purchased by the Lessee have been accomplished;
(iii) no holder of Equipment Notes will be required to recognize
gain or loss for tax purposes in connection with such assumption; and
(iv) covering such other matters as the Indenture Trustee shall
reasonably request that are customary for transactions of this type; and
(e) upon delivery of an indenture supplement giving effect to such
assumption reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee and execution and
delivery of Equipment Notes reflecting such assumption, each dated the date of
such purchase;
then, automatically and without the requirement of further action by any Person,
----
effective as of the date of such purchase, the Owner Trustee shall be released
from all of its obligations under
16
the Equipment Notes and under this Indenture in respect of the Equipment Notes
or otherwise related to such Units (other than any obligations or liabilities of
the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity incurred on or prior to the date of
such purchase or arising out of or based upon events occurring on or prior to
the date of such purchase, which obligations and liabilities shall remain the
sole responsibility of the Owner Trustee) and the Lien of this Indenture upon
the sale proceeds paid or payable to the Owner Trustee shall be discharged. If
requested by the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver
an instrument, in form and substance satisfactory to the Owner Trustee,
confirming such release and discharge. In the event that the affected Owner
Participant under Section 6.9 of the Participation Agreement holds less than
100% of the Beneficial Interest and the Lessee is therefore purchasing less than
all the Units pursuant to said Section 6.9 or the Lessee elects to purchase less
than all of the Units pursuant to Section 22.1 of the Lease, as the case may be,
the assumption by the Lessee of the rights and obligations of the Owner Trustee
under this Indenture in respect of that portion of the indebtedness evidenced by
the Equipment Notes which relates to such purchased Units shall be made on the
same terms and conditions as are described in clauses (a) through (e) above
except that (x) the opinion under clause (d) above shall be appropriately
modified to reflect such partial assumption of indebtedness, and (y) the
indenture supplement shall provide for a wholly new and separate indenture
between the Lessee and the Indenture Trustee for that portion of such
indebtedness evidenced by the Equipment Notes which is to be assumed by the
Lessee and secured by the Units to be purchased; and this Indenture shall
thereafter relate only to that portion of the indebtedness evidenced by the
Equipment Notes remaining outstanding under this Indenture after such
assumption. Any such new and separate indenture shall contain the same terms and
provisions of this Indenture with only such changes thereto which are necessary
to reflect the replacement of the Owner Trustee with the Lessee and which do not
adversely affect the rights of the holders of the Equipment Notes.
Article IV.
Remedies of the Indenture Trustee upon an Indenture Event of Default
Section 4.01. Indenture Events of Default. The following events
---------------------------
shall constitute "Indenture Events of Default" and each such Indenture Event of
Default shall be deemed to exist and continue so long as, but only so long as,
it shall not have been remedied:
(a) subject to Section 4.04(a), a Lease Event of Default (other than a
Lease Event of Default by reason of a default by the Lessee to pay any amounts
which are part of the Excepted Property); or
(b) default by the Owner Trustee in making any payment when due of
principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Equipment Note or Equipment
Notes, and the continuance of such default unremedied for 10 Business Days after
the same shall have become due and payable; or
(c) any failure by the Owner Trustee or the Owner Participant to
observe or perform any covenant or obligation of them or any of them, in this
Indenture or the Equipment Notes (other than as set forth in clause (b) above)
or in the Participation Agreement or by the Guarantor in the Guaranty, if such
failure is not remedied within a period of 30 days after there has been given to
the Owner Trustee, the Owner Participant and the Lessee by the Indenture
17
Trustee or by any holder of an Equipment Note a written notice specifying such
failure and requiring it to be remedied; or
(d) any representation or warranty made by the Owner Trustee or the
Owner Participant under the Participation Agreement, or by the Owner Trustee
hereunder or by the Guarantor in the Guaranty, or by any representative or
Affiliate of the Owner Trustee or the Owner Participant or the Guarantor in any
document or certificate furnished to the Indenture Trustee or the Loan
Participant in connection herewith or therewith or pursuant hereto or thereto,
shall prove at any time to have been incorrect in any material respect as of the
date made and such incorrectness shall remain material and continue unremedied
for a period of 30 days after there has been given to the Owner Trustee and the
Owner Participant a written notice specifying such incorrectness, stating that
such incorrectness is a default hereunder and requiring it to be remedied by the
Indenture Trustee or by any holder of an Equipment Note; or
(e) the Owner Trustee (as Owner Trustee and not in its individual
capacity), the Owner Participant or the Guarantor shall consent to the
appointment of a custodian, receiver, trustee or liquidator of itself or of a
substantial part of its property or shall make a general assignment for the
benefit of creditors; or
(f) the Owner Trustee (as Owner Trustee and not in its individual
capacity), the Owner Participant or the Guarantor shall file, or consent by
answer or otherwise to the filing against it of, a petition for relief or
reorganization or arrangement or any other petition in bankruptcy, for
liquidation or to take advantage of any bankruptcy or insolvency law of any
jurisdiction; or
(g) an order, judgment or decree shall be entered by any court of
competent jurisdiction appointing, without the consent of the Owner Trustee (as
Owner Trustee and not in its individual capacity), the Owner Participant or the
Guarantor, a receiver, trustee or liquidator of the Indenture Estate, the Owner
Trustee (as Owner Trustee and not in its individual capacity), the Owner
Participant or the Guarantor, or of any substantial part of its property, or
granting any order for relief in respect of the Owner Trustee (as Owner Trustee
and not in its individual capacity), the Owner Participant or the Guarantor
under the Federal bankruptcy laws, and any such order, judgment or decree of
appointment shall remain in force undismissed, unstayed or unvacated for a
period of 60 days after the date of entry thereof; or
(h) a petition against the Owner Trustee (as Owner Trustee and not in
its individual capacity), the Owner Participant or the Guarantor, in a
proceeding under the Federal bankruptcy laws or other insolvency law, as now or
hereafter in effect, shall be filed and shall not be withdrawn or dismissed
within 60 days thereafter, or if, under the provisions of any law providing for
reorganization or winding-up of corporations which may apply to the Owner
Trustee (as Owner Trustee and not in its individual capacity), the Owner
Participant or the Guarantor, any court of competent jurisdiction shall assume
jurisdiction, custody or control of the Indenture Estate, the Owner Trustee (as
Owner Trustee and not in its individual capacity), the Owner Participant or the
Guarantor or of any substantial part of its property and such jurisdiction,
custody or control shall remain in force unrelinquished, unstayed or
unterminated for a period of 60 days; or
18
Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, if an Indenture Event of
Default described in clause (e), (f), (g) or (h) of this Section 4.01 results
solely from the bankruptcy, reorganization, compromise, arrangement, insolvency,
readjustment of debt, dissolution or liquidation of Owner Trustee solely in its
individual capacity, and can be cured by the appointment of a substitute Owner
Trustee without adversely affecting the rights of the Indenture Trustee
hereunder, then Indenture Trustee shall refrain from the exercise of any of the
rights, powers or remedies pursuant to this Article IV for a period of 45 days
provided Owner Participant is diligently seeking to, and does replace the bank
or trust company then serving as Owner Trustee which replacement shall be deemed
to cure such Indenture Event of Default.
Section 4.02. Acceleration; Rescission and Annulment. If an
--------------------------------------
Indenture Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee may,
and upon the directions of a Majority in Interest shall, subject to Section
4.04, declare the unpaid principal amount of all Equipment Notes then
outstanding and accrued interest thereon to be due and payable, it being agreed
that no Make-Whole Amount or other premium should be payable in such event. At
any time after the Indenture Trustee has declared the unpaid principal amount of
all Equipment Notes then outstanding to be due and payable and prior to the sale
of any of the Indenture Estate pursuant to this Article IV, a Majority in
Interest, by written notice to the Owner Trustee, the Lessee and the Indenture
Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and thereby annul its
consequences if: (i) there has been paid to or deposited with the Indenture
Trustee an amount sufficient to pay all overdue installments of interest on the
Equipment Notes, and the principal on any Equipment Notes that has become due
otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, (ii) the rescission would
not conflict with any judgment or decree, and (iii) all other Indenture Defaults
and Indenture Events of Default, other than nonpayment of principal or interest
on the Equipment Notes that have become due solely because of such acceleration,
have been cured or waived.
Section 4.03. Remedies with Respect to Indenture Estate. (a) After
-----------------------------------------
an Indenture Event of Default shall have occurred and so long as such Indenture
Event of Default shall be continuing, then and in every such case the Indenture
Trustee, as assignee hereunder of the Lease or as mortgagee hereunder of the
Equipment or otherwise, may, and when required pursuant to the provisions of
Article V hereof shall, subject to Sections 4.04 and 4.05, exercise any or all
of the rights and powers and pursue any and all of the remedies pursuant to
Section 15 of the Lease and this Article IV and may recover judgment in its own
name as Indenture Trustee against the Indenture Estate and may take possession
of all or any part of the Indenture Estate, and may exclude the Owner Trustee
and the Owner Participant and all persons claiming under any of them wholly or
partly therefrom; provided, however, that nothing in this Indenture shall permit
-------- -------
or require the Indenture Trustee to take any action contrary to, or to disturb,
the Lessee's rights under the Lease, except in accordance with the provisions of
the Lease.
(b) Subject to Section 4.04 and Section 4.05, the Indenture Trustee
may, if at the time such action may be lawful and always subject to compliance
with any mandatory legal requirements, either with or without taking possession,
and either before or after taking possession, and without instituting any legal
proceedings whatsoever, and having first given notice of such sale by registered
mail to the Owner Trustee, the Owner Participant and the Lessee once at least 20
days prior to the date of such sale or the date on which the Indenture Trustee
enters into a binding contract for a private sale, and any other notice which
may be required by
19
law, sell and dispose of the Indenture Estate, or any part thereof, or interest
therein, at public auction to the highest bidder or at private sale in one lot
as an entirety or in separate lots, and either for cash or on credit and on such
terms as the Indenture Trustee may determine, and at any place (whether or not
it be the location of the Indenture Estate or any part thereof) and time
designated in the notice above referred to; provided, however, that,
-------- -------
notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Indenture Trustee
shall not sell any of the Indenture Estate or exercise any other remedies which
would result in the exclusion of the Owner Trustee from the Indenture Estate or
any part thereof unless a declaration of acceleration has been made pursuant to
Section 4.02; provided further, that, in the event the circumstances
-------- -------
contemplated by Section 4.04(c) exist, the Indenture Trustee shall not be
allowed to deliver the notice required by this Section 4.03(b) (x) until the
earlier of (1) such time as such circumstances no longer exist or (2) the
expiration of the 90 day period set forth in Section 4.04(c) or (y) if the
circumstances contemplated by the second proviso of Section 4.04(c) then exist.
Any such public sale or sales may be adjourned from time to time by announcement
at the time and place appointed for such sale or sales, or for any such
adjourned sale or sales, without further notice, and the Indenture Trustee or
the holder or holders of any Equipment Notes, or any interest therein, may bid
and become the purchaser at any such public sale. The Indenture Trustee may
exercise such right without possession or production of the Equipment Notes or
proof of ownership thereof, and as representative of the holders may exercise
such right without including the holders as parties to any suit or proceeding
relating to foreclosure of any property in the Indenture Estate. The Owner
Trustee hereby irrevocably constitutes the Indenture Trustee the true and lawful
attorney-in-fact of the Owner Trustee (in the name of the Owner Trustee or
otherwise) for the purpose of effectuating any sale, assignment, transfer or
delivery for enforcement of the Lien of this Indenture, whether pursuant to
foreclosure or power of sale or otherwise, to execute and deliver all such bills
of sale, assignments and other instruments as the Indenture Trustee may consider
necessary or appropriate, with full power of substitution, the Owner Trustee
hereby ratifying and confirming all that such attorney or any substitute shall
lawfully do by virtue hereof. Nevertheless, if so requested by the Indenture
Trustee or any purchaser, the Owner Trustee shall ratify and confirm any such
sale, assignment, transfer or delivery, by executing and delivering to the
Indenture Trustee or such purchaser all bills of sale, assignments, releases and
other proper instruments to effect such ratification and confirmation as may be
designated in any such request.
(c) Subject to Section 4.04 and Section 4.05, the Owner Trustee
agrees, to the fullest extent that it lawfully may, that, in case one or more of
the Indenture Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then, in
every such case, the Indenture Trustee may take possession of all or any part of
the Indenture Estate and may exclude the Owner Trustee and the Owner Participant
and all persons claiming under any of them wholly or partly therefrom. At the
request of the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee shall promptly execute and
deliver to the Indenture Trustee such instruments of title and other documents
as the Indenture Trustee may deem necessary or advisable to enable the Indenture
Trustee or an agent or representative designated by the Indenture Trustee, at
such time or times and place or places as the Indenture Trustee may specify, to
obtain possession of all or any part of the Indenture Estate. If the Owner
Trustee shall fail for any reason to execute and deliver such instruments and
documents to the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee may pursue all or part
of the Indenture Estate wherever it may be found and may enter any of the
premises of the Lessee wherever the Indenture Estate may be or be supposed to be
and search for the Indenture Estate and, subject to Section 4.04 and Section
4.05, take possession of and remove the Indenture Estate. Upon every such
taking of
20
possession, the Indenture Trustee may, from time to time, at the expense of the
Indenture Estate, make all such expenditures for maintenance, insurance,
repairs, replacements, alterations, additions and improvements to any of the
Indenture Estate, as it may deem proper. In each such case, the Indenture
Trustee shall have the right to use, operate, store, control or manage the
Indenture Estate, and to carry on the business and to exercise all rights and
powers of the Owner Trustee relating to the Indenture Estate, as the Indenture
Trustee shall deem best, including the right to enter into any and all such
agreements with respect to the maintenance, operation, leasing or storage of the
Indenture Estate or any part thereof as the Indenture Trustee may determine; and
the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to collect and receive all tolls, rents,
revenues, issues, income, products and profits of the Indenture Estate and every
part thereof, without prejudice, however, to the right of the Indenture Trustee
under any provision of this Indenture to collect and receive all cash held by,
or required to be deposited with, the Indenture Trustee hereunder. Such tolls,
rents, revenues, issues, income, products and profits shall be applied to pay
the expenses of holding and operating the Indenture Estate and of conducting the
business thereof, and of all maintenance, repairs, replacements, alterations,
additions and improvements, and to make all payments which the Indenture Trustee
may be required or may elect to make, if any, for taxes, assessments, insurance
or other proper charges upon the Indenture Estate or any part thereof (including
the employment of engineers and accountants to examine, inspect and make reports
upon the properties and books and records of the Indenture Estate), and all
other payments which the Indenture Trustee may be required or authorized to make
under any provision of this Indenture, as well as just and reasonable
compensation for the services of the Indenture Trustee, and of all persons
properly engaged and employed by the Indenture Trustee, including the reasonable
expenses of the Indenture Trustee.
(d) If an Indenture Event of Default occurs and is continuing and the
Indenture Trustee shall have obtained possession of a Unit, the Indenture
Trustee shall not be obligated to use or operate such Unit or cause such Unit to
be used or operated directly or indirectly by itself or through agents or other
representatives or to lease, license or otherwise permit or provide for the use
or operation of such Unit or Equipment by any other Person unless (i) the
Indenture Trustee shall have been able to obtain insurance in kinds, at rates
and in amounts satisfactory to it in its discretion to protect the Indenture
Estate and the Indenture Trustee, as trustee and individually, against any and
all liability for loss or damage to such Unit and for public liability and
property damage resulting from use or operation of such Unit and (ii) funds are
available in the Indenture Estate to pay for all such insurance or, in lieu of
such insurance, the Indenture Trustee is furnished with indemnification from the
holders of the Equipment Notes or any other Person upon terms and in amounts
satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee in its discretion to protect the Indenture
Estate and the Indenture Trustee, as trustee and individually, against any and
all such liabilities.
(e) Notwithstanding anything contained herein, so long as the Pass
Through Trustee under any Pass Through Trust Agreement is the registered holder
of any Equipment Note issued hereunder, the Indenture Trustee is not authorized
or empowered to acquire title to any Indenture Estate or take any action with
respect to any Indenture Estate so acquired by it if such acquisition or action
would cause the trust created by the Trust Agreement or the Pass Through Trust
Agreement to fail to qualify as a "grantor trust" for federal income tax
purposes.

Section 4.04. Right to Cure; Option to Purchase; Etc.
---------------------------------------
(a) Right to Cure. (A) If there shall occur a Lease Event of Default
-------------
in respect of the payment of Basic Rent pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Lease,
then as long as no other Indenture Event of Default (other than arising from
such failure to pay Basic Rent or which is concurrently being cured pursuant to
this Section 4.04(a)) shall have occurred and be continuing the Owner
Participant or the Owner Trustee may (but need not) pay to the Indenture
Trustee, at any time prior to the expiration of a period of 10 Business Days (a
"10-Day Period") after receiving written notice of such default from the
-------------
Indenture Trustee (prior to the expiration of which 10-Day Period the Indenture
Trustee shall not declare the Lease in default pursuant to Section 15 thereof or
exercise any of the rights, powers or remedies pursuant to such Section 15 or
this Article IV), an amount equal to the full amount of such payment of Basic
Rent, together with any interest due thereon on account of the delayed payment
thereof, and such payment by the Owner Participant or the Owner Trustee shall be
deemed to cure any Indenture Event of Default which arose from such failure of
the Lessee (but such cure shall not relieve the Lessee of any of its obligations
and shall not cure any other Indenture Event of Default) or (B) if there shall
occur a Lease Event of Default in respect of any other payment of Rent (other
than Basic Rent) or a Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, which Lease Event of Default is curable by the payment of money (it
being understood that actions such as the obtaining of insurance or the
procuring of maintenance services can be so effected), then as long as no other
Indenture Event of Default (other than arising from such Lease Event of Default
or which is concurrently being cured pursuant to this Section 4.04(a)) shall
have occurred and be continuing the Owner Participant or the Owner Trustee may
(but need not) pay to the Indenture Trustee, at any time prior to the expiration
of a period of 30 days (a "30-Day Period") after receiving written notice of
-------------
such Lease Event of Default from the Indenture Trustee (prior to the expiration
of which 30-Day Period the Indenture Trustee shall not declare the Lease in
default pursuant to Section 15 thereof or exercise any of the rights, powers or
remedies pursuant to such Section 15 or this Article IV), an amount equal to the
full amount of such payment of Rent, together with any interest due thereon on
account of the delayed payment thereof or otherwise make such payment as shall
effect such cure, and such payment by the Owner Participant or the Owner Trustee
shall be deemed to cure any Indenture Event of Default which arose from such
Lease Event of Default (but such cure shall not relieve the Lessee of any of its
obligations); provided however, Owner Participant and Owner Trustee,
-------- -------
collectively, shall not be entitled to (x) cure more than three consecutive or
six total defaults in the payment of Basic Rent, or (y) cure other Lease Events
of Default (other than the payment of Basic Rent) if the outstanding amount
which has been paid by the Owner Participant or the Owner Trustee and not
reimbursed to such parties by the Lessee pursuant to this clause (y) exceeds in
the aggregate $3,000,000. Upon any cure by the Owner Participant or the Owner
Trustee in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 4.04(a), the Owner
Participant or the Owner Trustee shall, to the extent of their respective
payments, be subrogated to the rights of the Indenture Trustee, as assignee
hereunder of the Owner Trustee to receive such payment of Rent (and any interest
due thereon on account of the delayed payment thereof) or right of
reimbursement, and shall be entitled to receive such payment upon its receipt by
the Indenture Trustee as aforesaid (but in each case only if all amounts of
principal and interest at the time due and payable on the Equipment Notes shall
have been paid in full); provided that neither the Owner Participant nor the
--------
Owner Trustee shall attempt to recover any such amount paid by it on behalf of
the Lessee pursuant to this Section 4.04(a) except by demanding of the Lessee
payment of such amount or by prosecuting an
22
action against the Lessee to require the payment of such amount; provided
--------
further, that with respect to any amounts advanced by and owing to the Owner
-------
Trustee and the Owner Participant, the Owner Trustee and the Owner Participant
shall be expressly subordinated to the right of the holders of the Equipment
Notes to receive any and all amounts then due and owing on the Equipment Notes
prior to any payment from the Lessee to the Owner Trustee or the Owner
Participant.
(b) Option to Purchase Equipment Notes. In the event that (i) at any
----------------------------------
time one or more Lease Events of Default shall have occurred and any such Lease
Event of Default shall have continued for a period of 180 days or more during
which time the Equipment Notes could, but shall not, have been accelerated
pursuant to Section 4.02, (ii) the Equipment Notes shall have been accelerated
pursuant to Section 4.02 or (iii) the Indenture Trustee, as assignee hereunder
of the Lease, shall have declared the Lease to be in default and shall have
commenced the exercise of any additional remedy in respect of the Units under
the Lease, then and in any such case, upon 30 days' notice (which notice shall
be irrevocable) from the Owner Trustee to the Indenture Trustee designating a
date of purchase (the "Purchase Date") which shall be a Determination Date, each
-------------
holder of an Equipment Note will be obligated to, upon and subject to receipt by
the Indenture Trustee from the Owner Trustee or its nominee of an amount equal
to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Equipment Notes, together with
accrued interest thereon to the Purchase Date, plus all other sums then due and
payable to such holder of an Equipment Note hereunder, but without any Make-
Whole Amount or other premium, forthwith sell, assign, transfer and convey to
the Owner Trustee or its nominee on the Purchase Date all of the right, title
and interest of such holder in and to the Equipment Notes then held by such
holder, and the Owner Trustee or its nominee shall assume all of such holder's
obligations under the Participation Agreement; provided that the Owner Trustee
--------
or its nominee must purchase all and not less than all of the Equipment Notes
then outstanding. During such 30-day notice period, the Indenture Trustee shall
not exercise any of the rights, remedies or powers pursuant to Section 15 of the
Lease or this Article IV, so long as the Owner Participant (or any nominee of
the Owner Participant reasonably acceptable to the Indenture Trustee) has
notified the Indenture Trustee that the notice so provided by the Owner Trustee
or its nominee pursuant to this Section 4.04(b) constitutes the binding
obligation of the Owner Trustee or its nominee to purchase the Equipment Notes.
(c) Restrictions on Certain Actions. Notwithstanding any provision of
-------------------------------
this Indenture to the contrary, the Indenture Trustee shall not foreclose the
Lien of this Indenture or otherwise exercise remedies hereunder which would
result in the exclusion of the Owner Trustee from the Indenture Estate or any
part thereof as a result of an Indenture Event of Default that constitutes or
occurs solely by virtue of one or more Lease Events of Default (at a time when
no other Indenture Event of Default unrelated to any Lease Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing) unless the Indenture Trustee as security
assignee of the Owner Trustee has proceeded or is then currently proceeding, to
the extent it is then entitled to do so hereunder and under the Lease and is not
then stayed or otherwise prevented from doing so by operation of law, to
exercise one (or more, as it shall in its good faith discretion determine) of
the comparable remedies provided for in Section 15 of the Lease with respect to
the Equipment, provided that in the event the Indenture Trustee shall be so
--------
stayed or otherwise prevented from exercising such remedies under the Lease, it
shall in any event refrain from so foreclosing or exercising such other remedies
hereunder for a period of not less than 90 days, and further provided that in
------- --------
the
23
event the Lessee as debtor in a proceeding under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy
Code (or any trustee appointed for the Lessee as debtor in any such bankruptcy
case) shall have assumed the Lease with the approval of the bankruptcy court
having jurisdiction over such case, under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code or
any amended or successor version thereof, and no Lease Event of Default other
than as specified in Section 14(g) or Section 14(h) of the Lease has occurred
and is continuing and no Indenture Event of Default unrelated to a Lease Event
of Default occurring solely pursuant to Section 14(g) or 14(h) of the Lease
shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall refrain from
so foreclosing or exercising such other remedies hereunder. Nothing in this
Section 4.04(c) shall prevent the Indenture Trustee from foreclosing or
exercising such other remedies hereunder to the extent the Lessee fails to
comply with any provisions of any order issued in connection with the assumption
of the Lease.
Section 4.05. Rights of Lessee. Notwithstanding the provisions of
----------------
this Indenture, including, without limitation, Section 4.03, so long as no Lease
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, neither the Indenture
Trustee nor the Owner Trustee shall take any action contrary to, or disturb, the
Lessee's rights under the Lease, except in accordance with the provisions of the
Lease, including, without limitation, (i) the right to receive all monies due
and payable to it in accordance with the provisions of the Lease and (ii) the
Lessee's rights to possession and use of, and of quiet enjoyment of, the
Equipment.
Section 4.06. Waiver of Existing Defaults. A Majority in Interest by
---------------------------
notice to the Indenture Trustee on behalf of all holders of the Equipment Notes
may waive any past default hereunder and its consequences, except a default:
(i) in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any
Equipment Note, or (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under
Article IX hereof cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the
holder of each Equipment Note affected. Upon any such waiver, such default
shall cease to exist, and any Indenture Event of Default arising therefrom shall
be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such
waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right
consequent thereon.
Article V.
Duties of the Indenture Trustee
Section 5.01. Action upon Indenture Event of Default. If any
--------------------------------------
payments of Basic Rent or payments of the principal or interest or premium, if
any, on the Equipment Notes due and payable on any Rent Payment Date shall not
have been paid in full on such Rent Payment Date, the Indenture Trustee shall
give telephonic notice within one Business Day (followed by prompt written
notice) to the Owner Trustee, the Owner Participant, the Loan Participant and
the Lessee specifying the amount and nature of such deficiency in payment. In
the event the Indenture Trustee shall have knowledge of an Indenture Event of
Default or an Indenture Default, the Indenture Trustee shall give prompt notice
of such Indenture Event of Default or Indenture Default to the Lessee, the Owner
Trustee, the Owner Participant and the Loan Participant by telegram, facsimile,
or telephone (to be promptly confirmed in writing). In the event the Owner
Trustee shall have knowledge of an Indenture Event of Default or an Indenture
Default, the Owner Trustee shall give notice of such Indenture Event of Default
or Indenture Default in the same manner to the Lessee, the Indenture Trustee,
the Owner Participant and the Loan Participant. Subject to the terms of Section
5.03, the Indenture Trustee shall take such action, or
24
refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Indenture Event of Default
or Indenture Default as the Indenture Trustee shall be instructed in writing by
a Majority in Interest. If the Indenture Trustee shall not have received
instructions as above provided within 20 days after the mailing of notice of
such Indenture Event of Default or such Indenture Default to the Loan
Participant by the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee may, but shall not
be obligated to, take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with
respect to such Indenture Event of Default or Indenture Default as it shall
determine to be advisable in the best interests of the Loan Participant. Any
provision of this Section 5.01 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Indenture
Trustee shall not declare the Lease to be in default solely in respect of the
Lessee's failure to make any payment of Basic Rent within 10 Business Days after
the same shall have become due, unless the 10-Day Period within which, pursuant
to Section 4.04(a), the Owner Participant or the Owner Trustee are entitled to
cure such failure shall have expired. For all purposes of this Indenture, in the
absence of actual knowledge, neither the Owner Trustee nor the Indenture Trustee
shall be deemed to have knowledge of an Indenture Event of Default (except, in
the case of the Indenture Trustee, the failure of the Lessee to pay any
installment of Basic Rent that is required to be paid directly to the Indenture
Trustee within the 10 Business Days after the same shall become due or the
failure of the Lessee to maintain insurance as required under Section 12 of the
Lease if the Indenture Trustee shall receive notice thereof from an insurer or
insurance broker) unless notified in writing by the Lessee, the Owner Trustee,
one or more Loan Participants or the Owner Participant; and "actual knowledge"
(as used in the foregoing clause) of the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee
shall mean actual knowledge of an officer in the Corporate Trust Administration
of the Owner Trustee or the Corporate Trust Department of the Indenture Trustee,
as the case may be.
Section 5.02. Action upon Instructions. Subject to the terms of
------------------------
Sections 5.01 and 5.03, upon the written instructions at any time and from time
to time of a Majority in Interest, the Indenture Trustee shall take such of the
following actions as may be specified in such instructions (subject to the
rights of the other parties thereto, except to the extent assigned hereunder):
(i) subject to and solely to the extent permitted by the terms hereof and of the
Lease, give such notice, direction or consent, or exercise such right, remedy or
power hereunder or under the Lease or in respect of any part or all of the
Indenture Estate or take such other action as shall be specified in such
instructions; and (ii) after an Indenture Event of Default shall have occurred
and so long as such Indenture Event of Default shall be continuing, approve as
satisfactory to it all matters required by the terms of the Lease to be
satisfactory to the Owner Trustee, it being understood that without the written
instructions of a Majority in Interest the Indenture Trustee shall not take any
action described in clauses (i) and (ii) above.
Upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term with
respect to any Unit under the Lease and after payment of the portion of the
principal of, together with interest and premium, if any, on the Equipment Notes
in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, or, if and so long as no
Indenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon the
transfer by the Owner Trustee to the Lessee or its designee of any Unit pursuant
to Section 10 or 11 of the Lease or the retention by the Owner Trustee of any
Unit pursuant to Section 10.3 of the Lease, then the Indenture Trustee shall in
either such case, upon the written request of the Owner Trustee, and receipt by
the Indenture Trustee of funds necessary to prepay the Equipment Notes required
to be prepaid in connection with such purchase, termination, retention or Event
of Loss, execute and deliver to, or as directed in writing by, the Owner Trustee
an appropriate instrument
25
(in due form for recording) furnished by the Owner Trustee or the Lessee
releasing such property from the Lien of this Indenture.
Section 5.03. Indemnification.
---------------
(a) The Indenture Trustee shall not be required to take any action or
refrain from taking any action under Section 5.01 (other than the first two
sentences thereof) or 5.02 or Article IV if it shall have reasonable grounds for
believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnification against such
risk is not reasonably assured to it. The Indenture Trustee shall not be
required to take any action under Section 5.01 or 5.02 or Article IV, nor shall
any other provision of this Indenture be deemed to impose a duty on the
Indenture Trustee to take any action, if the Indenture Trustee shall have been
advised in writing by independent counsel that such action is contrary to the
terms hereof or of the Lease or the Participation Agreement, or is otherwise
contrary to law.
(b) Each Loan Participant may, but shall not be required to,
participate in any indemnification of the Indenture Trustee given pursuant to
paragraph (a) of this Section 5.03. Each Loan Participant so participating shall
be entitled to reimbursement for such participation in accordance with Article
III.
Section 5.04. No Duties Except as Specified in Indenture or
---------------------------------------------
Instructions. The Indenture Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to
------------
manage, control, use, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with the Equipment or
any other part of the Indenture Estate, or to otherwise take or refrain from
taking any action under, or in connection with, this Indenture, the Lease, or
the Participation Agreement, except as expressly provided by the terms of this
Indenture or as expressly provided in written instructions received pursuant to
the terms of Section 5.01 or 5.02; and no implied duties or obligations shall be
read into this Indenture against the Indenture Trustee. Each of the Owner
Trustee (only in its individual capacity) and the Indenture Trustee nevertheless
agrees that it will, at its own cost and expense, promptly take such action as
may be necessary duly to discharge any liens or encumbrances on any part of the
Indenture Estate, or on any properties of the Owner Trustee assigned, pledged or
mortgaged as part of the Indenture Estate, which result from claims against it
in its individual capacity not related to the ownership of the Equipment (in the
case of the Owner Trustee), administration of the Indenture Estate (in the case
of the Indenture Trustee) or any other transaction under this Indenture or the
Trust Agreement or any document included in the Indenture Estate.
Section 5.05. No Action Except under Lease, Indenture or
------------------------------------------
Instructions. The Indenture Trustee agrees that it will not manage, control,
------------
use, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with the Equipment or other property
constituting part of the Indenture Estate except (i) as required by the terms of
the Lease and the Participation Agreement, (ii) in accordance with the powers
granted to, or the authority conferred upon, the Indenture Trustee pursuant to
this Indenture, or (iii) in accordance with the express terms hereof or with
written instructions pursuant to Section 5.01 or 5.02.
26
Section 5.06. Disposition of Units. At any time and from time to
--------------------
time prior to the expiration of the Lease Term, any Unit for which the
provisions of Section 11.4(a) of the Lease has been satisfied may be disposed of
in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.4(a) of the Lease, and the Owner
Trustee shall, from time to time, direct the Indenture Trustee to, provided no
Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, execute and
deliver to it, or as directed in writing by the Owner Trustee, an appropriate
instrument furnished by the Owner Trustee or the Lessee releasing such Unit from
the Lien of the Indenture, but only in respect of such Unit.
Section 5.07. Indenture Supplements for Replacements. In the event
--------------------------------------
of a Replacement Unit being substituted as contemplated by Section 11.2 of the
Lease, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee agree for the benefit of the
holders of the Equipment Notes and the Lessee, subject to compliance by the
Lessee with its obligations set forth in Section 11 of the Lease, to execute and
deliver an Indenture Supplement substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto
---------
and, provided no Lease Event of Default or Lease Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, execute and deliver to the Lessee an appropriate instrument
releasing the Unit being replaced from the Lien of the Indenture.
Section 5.08. Effect of Replacements. In the event of the
----------------------
substitution of a Replacement Unit, all provisions of this Indenture relating to
the Unit or Units being replaced shall be applicable to such Replacement Unit
with the same force and effect as if such Replacement Unit was the same Unit
being replaced.
Section 5.09. Withholding Taxes. The Indenture Trustee, as agent for
-----------------
the Owner Trustee, shall exclude and withhold from each payment of principal,
premium, if any, and interest and other amounts due hereunder or under the
Equipment Notes any and all withholding taxes applicable thereto as required by
law. The Indenture Trustee agrees to act as such withholding agent and, in
connection therewith, whenever any present or future taxes or similar charges
are required to be withheld with respect to any amounts payable in respect of
the Equipment Notes, to withhold such amounts and timely pay the same to the
appropriate authority in the name of and on behalf of the holders of the
Equipment Notes, that it will file any necessary withholding tax returns or
statements when due, and that, as promptly as possible after the payment
thereof, it will deliver to each holder of an Equipment Note appropriate
documentation showing the payment thereof, together with such additional
documentary evidence as such holders may reasonably request from time to time.
Section 5.10. Lessee's Right of Quiet Enjoyment. Notwithstanding any
---------------------------------
of the provisions of this Indenture to the contrary, so long as Lessee is in
compliance with its obligations under the Lease (including applicable grace
periods) and no Lease Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
unremedied, the Indenture Trustee will comply with Section 8 of the
Participation Agreement to the same extent as if it were the Lessor under the
Lease. Each holder of an Equipment Note, by its acceptance thereof, consents in
all respects to the terms of the Lease and the Participation Agreement and
agrees to the provisions of this Section 5.10.
27
Article VI.
The Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee
Section 6.01. Acceptance of Trusts and Duties. The Indenture Trustee
-------------------------------
accepts the trusts hereby created and applicable to it and agrees to perform the
same but only upon the terms of this Indenture and agrees to receive and
disburse all moneys received by it constituting part of the Indenture Estate in
accordance with the terms hereof. The Indenture Trustee shall not be answerable
or accountable under any circumstances, except for its own willful misconduct or
gross negligence (or negligence or willful misconduct in the case of application
or investment of moneys constituting the Indenture Estate) or breach of any of
its representations or warranties or covenants set forth herein or in the
Participation Agreement, or the performance of its obligations under the last
sentence of Section 5.04; and the Owner Trustee shall not be liable for any
action or inaction of the Indenture Trustee and the Indenture Trustee shall not
be liable for any action or inaction of the Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee
shall not be deemed a trustee for, or agent of, the holders of the Equipment
Notes for any purpose.
Section 6.02. Absence of Duties. Except in accordance with written
-----------------
instructions or requests furnished pursuant to Section 5.01 or Section 5.02 and
except as provided in, and without limiting the generality of, Section 5.04, the
Indenture Trustee shall have no duty (i) to see to any registration of the
Equipment or any recording or filing of the Lease, or of this Indenture or any
other document, or to see to the maintenance of any such registration, recording
or filing, (ii) to see to any insurance on the Equipment or to effect or
maintain any such insurance, whether or not the Lessee shall be in default with
respect thereto, (iii) to confirm, verify or inquire into the failure to receive
any financial statements of the Lessee or (iv) to inspect the Equipment at any
time or ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the
Lessee's covenants under the Lease with respect to the Equipment.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indenture Trustee will furnish to any Loan
Participant, so long as such Loan Participant or its nominees shall hold any of
the Equipment Notes, promptly upon receipt thereof, duplicates or copies of all
reports, notices, requests, demands, certificates, financial statements and
other instruments furnished to the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture, to
the extent that the same shall not have been furnished to the Indenture Trustee
and the Loan Participants pursuant to the Lease.
Section 6.03. No Representations or Warranties as to the Equipment or
-------------------------------------------------------
Documents. Neither the Owner Trustee nor the Owner Trustee in its individual
---------
capacity nor the Indenture Trustee makes or shall be deemed to have made (i) any
representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the value, condition,
design, operation, merchantability or fitness for use of the Equipment or as to
their title thereto, or any other representation or warranty with respect to the
Equipment whatsoever, or (ii) any representation or warranty as to the validity,
legality or enforceability of this Indenture, the Trust Agreement, the
Participation Agreement, the Equipment Notes, the Lease, any Lease Supplement,
any Indenture Supplement or any other document or instrument or as to the
correctness of any statement contained in any thereof (except as to the
representations and warranties made by the Owner Trustee in its individual
capacity as set forth in Section 3.1 of the Participation Agreement), except
that the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee each in its individual capacity
hereby confirms the representations and warranties made by it in its individual
capacity in Sections 3.1 and 3.3, respectively, of the Participation Agreement.
28
Section 6.04. No Segregation of Moneys; No Interest; Investments.
--------------------------------------------------
(a) Subject to Section 6.04(b), no moneys received by the Indenture
Trustee hereunder need be segregated in any manner except to the extent required
by law, and any such moneys may be deposited under such general conditions for
the holding of trust funds as may be prescribed by law applicable to the
Indenture Trustee, and, except as otherwise agreed by the Owner Trustee or the
Indenture Trustee, as the case may be, neither the Owner Trustee nor the
Indenture Trustee shall be liable for any interest thereon.
(b) Any amounts held by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the express
terms of this Indenture or the Lease and not required to be distributed as
herein provided shall be invested and reinvested by the Indenture Trustee from
time to time in Specified Investments at the written direction and at the risk
and expense of the Lessee, except that in the absence of any such direction,
such amounts need not be invested and reinvested and except that after a Lease
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such amounts shall be so
invested and reinvested by the Indenture Trustee in Indenture Investments. Any
net income or gain realized as a result of any such investments or reinvestment
shall be held as part of the Indenture Estate and shall be applied by the
Indenture Trustee at the same times, on the same conditions and in the same
manner as the amounts in respect of which such income or gain was realized are
required to be distributed in accordance with the provisions hereof or of the
Lease pursuant to which such amounts were required to be held and if no Lease
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing any excess shall be paid
to the Lessee. Any such Specified Investments or Indenture Investments may be
sold or otherwise reduced to cash (without regard to maturity date) by the
Indenture Trustee whenever necessary to make any application as required by such
provisions. The Indenture Trustee shall have no liability for any loss resulting
from any such investment or reinvestment other than by reason of the willful
misconduct or gross negligence of the Indenture Trustee.
Section 6.05. Reliance; Agents; Advice of Counsel. The Indenture
-----------------------------------
Trustee shall incur no liability to anyone acting upon any signature,
instrument, notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate, report,
opinion, bond or other document or paper believed by it to be genuine and
believed by it to be signed by the proper party or parties. The Indenture
Trustee may accept a copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors of any party
to the Participation Agreement, certified by the Secretary or an Assistant
Secretary of such party as duly adopted and in full force and effect, as
conclusive evidence that such resolution has been duly adopted by said Board and
that the same is in full force and effect. As to any fact or matter the manner
of ascertainment of which is not specifically described herein, the Indenture
Trustee may for all purposes hereof rely on a certificate, signed by an officer
of the Lessee, as to such fact or matter, and such certificate shall constitute
full protection to the Indenture Trustee for any action taken or omitted to be
taken by it in good faith in reliance thereon. The Indenture Trustee shall
furnish to the Owner Trustee upon request such information and copies of such
documents as the Indenture Trustee may have and as are necessary for the Owner
Trustee to perform its duties under Article II hereof. The Indenture Trustee
shall assume, and shall be fully protected in assuming, that the Owner Trustee
is authorized by the Trust Agreement to enter into this Indenture and to take
all action permitted to be taken by it pursuant to the provisions hereof, and
need not inquire into the authorization of the Owner Trustee with respect
thereto. In the
29
administration of the trusts hereunder, the Indenture Trustee may execute any of
the trusts or powers hereof and perform its powers and duties hereunder directly
or through agents or attorneys and may, at the reasonable expense of the
Indenture Estate, consult with independent counsel, accountants and other
skilled persons to be selected and employed by it, and the Indenture Trustee
shall not be liable for anything done, suffered, or omitted in good faith by it
in accordance with the written advice or opinion of any such independent
counsel, accountants or other skilled persons acting within such persons' area
of competence (so long as the Indenture Trustee shall have exercised reasonable
care in selecting such persons).
Section 6.06. Not Acting in Individual Capacity. The Owner Trustee
---------------------------------
and the Indenture Trustee each acts hereunder solely as trustee hereunder and,
in the case of the Owner Trustee, under the Trust Agreement and not in its
individual capacity unless otherwise expressly provided; and all Persons, other
than the holders of Equipment Notes to the extent expressly provided in this
Indenture, having any claim against the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee
by reason of the transactions contemplated hereby shall, subject to the Lien and
priorities of payment as herein provided, look only to the Indenture Estate for
payment or satisfaction thereof.
Article VII.
Certain Limitations on Owner Trustee's and Indenture Trustee's Rights
Each of the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee agree that it
shall have no right against the holders of the Equipment Notes or the Indenture
Estate (except in the case of the Indenture Trustee as expressly provided in
Section 4.03 hereof) for any fee as compensation for its services hereunder or
any expenses or disbursements incurred in connection with the exercise and
performance of its powers and duties hereunder or any indemnification against
liability which it may incur in the exercise and performance of such powers and
duties but, on the contrary, shall look solely to the Lessee for such payment
and indemnification and that neither the Owner Trustee nor the Indenture Trustee
shall have any lien on nor security interest in the Indenture Estate as security
for such compensation, expenses, reasonable counsel fees, if any, disbursements
and indemnification.

successor Indenture Trustee so appointed by such court shall immediately and
without further act be superseded by any successor Indenture Trustee appointed
as provided in the proviso to the first sentence of this paragraph (a) within
one year from the date of the appointment by such court.
(b) Any successor Indenture Trustee, however appointed, shall execute
and deliver to the Owner Trustee and the Lessee and to the predecessor Indenture
Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon such successor
Indenture Trustee, without further act, shall become vested with all the
estates, properties, rights, powers, duties and trusts of the predecessor
Indenture Trustee hereunder in the trusts hereunder applicable to it with like
effect as if originally named the Indenture Trustee herein; but nevertheless,
upon the written request of such successor Indenture Trustee, such predecessor
Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such
Indenture Trustee, upon the trusts herein expressed applicable to it, all the
estates, properties, rights, powers and trusts of such predecessor Indenture
Trustee, and such Indenture Trustee shall duly assign, transfer, deliver and pay
