The Administrative Agent shall monitor, or cause to be monitored, the Trading Activity as of the end of each calendar quarter and reflect the results of such monitoring in the quarterly reports of the Issuer prepared under Section 2.14 of the Indenture. It is expected such efforts shall include, without limitation, the following: (i) BBAM transfers or seconds to B&B Air a sufficient number of employees to perform the following functions with respect to aircraft of the Issuer or its subsidiaries that are on lease for use within the United States as well as, potentially, other aircraft of the Issuer and its subsidiaries: (A) sales, marketing and lease management; (B) technical, maintenance and inspection services; and (C) financial and valuation services; and (ii) BBAM makes available administrative personnel for recordkeeping and other ministerial functions, to B&B Air, in each case, for arm’s length consideration and otherwise on arm’s length terms.

Any action taken by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.09 to cause the Issuer to be entitled to the benefits of the Treaty shall be subject to Rating Agency Confirmation (as defined in the Indenture). This section shall apply to any successor Administrative Agent appointed under Article VII hereunder.
