(b) The failure by PDP Borrower to either (i) deliver Letter of Credit No. 1 to PDP Lender in the form required hereunder by October 10, 2022, or (ii) make the payments required by Section 2(a)(i)(A) above will relieve PDP Lender of any obligation to make any Pre-Delivery Payments with respect to Purchase Agreement No. 1. The failure by PDP Borrower to either (i) deliver Letter of Credit No. 2 to PDP Lender in the form required hereunder by December 10, 2022, or (ii) make the payments required by Section 2(a)(ii)(A) above will relieve PDP Lender of any obligation to make any Pre-Delivery Payments with respect to Purchase Agreement No. 2. The failure by PDP Borrower to either (i) deliver Letter of Credit No. 3 to PDP Lender in the form required hereunder by March 10, 2023, or (ii) make the payment required by Section 2(a)(iii)(A) above will relieve PDP Lender of any obligation to make any Pre-Delivery Payments with respect to Purchase Agreement No. 3. The failure by PDP Borrower to either (i) deliver Letter of Credit No. 4 to PDP Lender in the form required hereunder by June 10, 2023, or (ii) make the payments required by Section 2(a)(iv)(A) above will relieve PDP Lender of any obligation to make any Pre-Delivery Payments with respect to Purchase Agreement No. 4.

(c) So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, on the Maturity Date (or such earlier date that PDP Borrower repays in full to PDP Lender any Pre- Delivery Payments made by PDP Lender pursuant to any particular Purchase Agreement), PDP Lender will apply any Reserves held in connection with a particular Purchase Agreement in reduction of any and all sums due and payable by PDP Borrower in respect of the Loans made in connection with such Purchase Agreement.

In order to secure the prompt payment and performance when due (by reason of acceleration or otherwise) of all indebtedness, obligations or liabilities of PDP Borrower and any Affiliate, parent or subsidiary of PDP Borrower owing to PDP Lender or any Affiliate, parent or subsidiary of PDP Lender, in any amount, of every kind and description, direct or indirect, secured or unsecured, joint or several, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, whether for payment or performance, now existing or hereafter arising, regardless of how the same arise or by whatever instrument, agreement or book account they may be evidenced, including but not limited to all such obligations under or in respect of this PDP Agreement, any PDP Note or any of the other Required Documents (collectively, the “Obligations”), PDP Borrower has assigned to PDP Lender, and PDP Borrower hereby also grants and conveys to PDP Lender a security interest in and lien on, all of PDP Borrower’s rights, title and interests of whatever kind or description in and to each of the Purchase Agreements, all of the Reserves, each of the Aircraft, and all present or future additions, attachments, or accessories thereto and replacements thereof, all engines and avionics, all tools, manuals, service records, software and similar information and materials related to any such Aircraft, all payments, amounts, refunds, rebates and all other amounts of any kind whatsoever relating to any or all of the Purchase Agreements and/or any or all of the Aircraft and the products, proceeds, rents and profits therefrom or thereof (collectively, the “Collateral”). PDP Borrower represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that (i) the assignment of, and security interest in and lien on, the Collateral granted herein shall have priority over any other security interests or lien of any kind whatsoever and PDP Borrower shall not assign, grant or otherwise convey any other security interests in or liens on any of the Collateral, and (ii) PDP Borrower shall, at its own cost and expense, promptly take such action as PDP Lender shall deem necessary or advisable to fully discharge all liens and security interests in the Collateral which result from claims against PDP Borrower not related to the transactions contemplated by this PDP Agreement. PDP Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints PDP Lender (and its agents and employees) its true and lawful attorney, with full power of substitution, to take such action as PDP Lender may deem necessary to protect and preserve its interest in or to the Collateral as set forth above, and waives its rights of notice, demand, dishonor, marshaling of Collateral, place and time of sale, advertising, statutory method of foreclosure and all bonds, securities and rights of redemption. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, PDP Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally authorizes PDP Lender (and its agents and employees) to fill in any blank spaces contained in any PDP Note and to file one or more UCC-1 financing statements with respect to the Collateral.

7. Rights and Remedies on Default. Upon the occurrence of any Default by PDP Borrower of its obligations hereunder, under any PDP Note, or under any other Required Document, or upon the occurrence of an Event of Default; then (i) PDP Borrower shall be deemed to be in default hereunder and shall immediately upon demand pay to PDP Lender the amount of all Pre-Delivery Payments made pursuant hereto, plus all accrued and unpaid interest then outstanding hereunder and under any PDP Note and any other amounts owing or payable to PDP Lender; (ii) PDP Lender shall have no further obligation of any kind whatsoever to make any Pre-Delivery Payments; and (iii) PDP Lender shall have, in addition to any other rights and remedies available upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of New York, including.

12.          Prepayments and Late Payments.

(a) In the event that PDP Borrower prepays any PDP Note in whole or in part prior to its scheduled Maturity Date (as defined in such PDP Note), then such prepayment shall be accompanied by a prepayment penalty equal to two percent (2%) of the amount of such prepayment (the “Prepayment Premium”).

(b) In addition to the default interest payable pursuant to the terms of any PDP Note, a late charge equal to Seven Thousand Five Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($7,500.00) shall be imposed on any payment hereunder or under any PDP Note not received by the PDP Lender on or before the date such payment is due. The late charge is not a penalty, but liquidated damages to defray administrative and related expenses due to such late payment. The late charge shall be immediately due and payable and shall be paid by the PDP Borrower to the PDP Lender without notice or demand. This provision for a late charge is not and shall not be deemed a grace period, and PDP Lender has no obligation to accept a late payment. Further, the acceptance of a late payment without an accompanying late charge shall not be deemed a waiver of PDP Lender’s right to collect such late charge or to collect a late charge for any subsequent late payment received.

13. Foreign Taxes; Gross-Up. Any payments and amounts due to PDP Lender under or in connection with this PDP Agreement or any PDP Note shall be paid to PDP Lender free and clear of any and all Foreign Taxes (as hereinafter defined). If any Foreign Taxes must be deducted or withheld from any amounts payable to PDP Lender, the amount payable shall be increased to yield to PDP Lender (after payment of all Foreign Taxes) the full dollar amount projected for payment. Whenever PDP Borrower pays any Foreign Tax on behalf of PDP Lender, PDP Borrower will promptly send to PDP Lender such documentary evidence of payment as PDP Lender may reasonably require. If PDP Lender is allowed a credit against income taxes in any jurisdiction other than the United States in respect of such Foreign Tax, PDP Lender will make annual refunds to PDP Borrower of the amount of such credits which are actually applied against income taxes for the applicable year. PDP Lender will make the final determination of whether and to what extent such credit is allowed. For the purposes of this paragraph, “Foreign Taxes” means any and all taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, charges, deductions, withholdings or restrictions by any taxing authority outside of the United States.

14.          Compliance with Laws.

(a) PDP Borrower is and will remain in full compliance with all laws and regulations applicable to it including, without limitation, (i) ensuring that no person or entity that owns a controlling interest in or otherwise controls PDP Borrower is or shall be (Y) listed on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Person List maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), Department of the Treasury, and/or any other similar lists maintained by OFAC pursuant to any authorizing statute, Executive Order or regulation or (Z) a person designated under Section 1(b), (c) or (d) of Executive Order No. 13224 (September 23, 2001), any related enabling legislation or any other similar Executive Orders, and (ii) compliance with all applicable Bank Secrecy Act (“BSA”) laws, regulations and government guidance on BSA compliance and on the prevention and detection of money laundering violations.

(b) PDP Borrower is not a person entity with whom a United States person is prohibited from transacting business of the type contemplated by this PDP Agreement, whether such prohibition arises under United States law, regulation, executive orders and lists published by the OFAC (including those executive orders and lists published by OFAC with respect to Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons) or otherwise. Neither PDP Borrower nor any person or entity that owns a direct or indirect interest in PDP Borrower is a person or entity with whom a United States person is prohibited from transacting business of the type contemplated by this PDP Agreement, whether such prohibition arises under United States law, regulation, executive orders and lists published by the OFAC (including those executive orders and lists published by OFAC with respect to Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons) or otherwise.

No extension of time for payment of this PDP Agreement made by any agreement with any person now or hereafter liable for payment of this PDP Agreement shall operate to release, discharge, modify, change or affect the original liability of PDP Borrower under this PDP Agreement, either in whole or in part. No delay or failure by PDP Lender hereof in exercising any right, power, privilege or remedy shall be deemed to be a waiver of the same or any part thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof or any failure to exercise the same in any instance preclude any future exercise thereof, or exercise of any other right, power, privilege or remedy, and the rights and remedies provided for hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy available at law or in equity.

12 

(b) ANY WAIVER OF ANY OF PDP LENDER’S RIGHTS OR REMEDIES SHALL BE EFFECTIVE ONLY IF SUCH WAIVER IS IN WRITING SIGNED BY PDP LENDER AND ONLY IN THE SPECIFIC INSTANCE AND FOR THE SPECIFIC PURPOSE FOR WHICH IT IS GIVEN. NO FAILURE TO EXERCISE, OR DELAY IN EXERCISING, ANY RIGHT HEREUNDER SHALL OPERATE AS A WAIVER THEREOF; NOR SHALL ANY FAILURE TO EXERCISE, OR PARTIAL EXERCISE OR, ANY RIGHT HEREUNDER PRECLUDE ANY OTHER OR FURTHER EXERCISE THEREOF OR THE EXERCISE OF ANY OTHER RIGHT.

(c) THIS PDP AGREEMENT AND THE LEGAL RELATIONS OF THE PDP BORROWER AND PDP LENDER SHALL IN ALL RESPECTS BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES REGARDING THE CHOICE OF LAW (OTHER THAN THE PROVISIONS OF SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK).

(d) PDP Borrower agrees that final judgment against PDP Borrower in any action or proceeding in connection with this PDP Agreement shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any other jurisdiction within or outside the United States of America by suit on the judgment, a certified or exemplified copy of which shall be conclusive evidence of the fact and the amount of such party’s indebtedness. To the extent that PDP Borrower may in any jurisdiction in which proceedings may at any time be taken for the determination of any question arising under or for the enforcement of this PDP Agreement (including any interlocutory proceedings or the execution of any judgment or award arising therefrom) be entitled to claim or otherwise be accorded for itself or its property, assets or revenues immunity from suit or attachment (whether in aid of execution, before judgment or otherwise) or other legal process, and to the extent that in any such jurisdiction, there may be attributed to such party, or its property, assets or revenues such immunity (whether or not claimed), such party hereby irrevocably agrees not to claim and waives such immunity to the fullest extent permitted by the Law of such jurisdiction.

(e) All notices to be given hereunder or under the other Required Documents shall be in writing and sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, by overnight delivery service, with all charges prepaid, by messenger or email transmission. Notices shall be sent to the address for the PDP Lender and the PDP Borrower as set forth on the signature page of this PDP Agreement until another address is specified to all parties in a notice delivered in accordance with this section. Notice will be deemed received, if to the PDP Lender, upon actual receipt, and if to the PDP Borrower, on the fourth (4^th) Business Day after depositing such notice in the United States Post Office in the case of certified or registered mail, or upon reliable confirmation of delivery if sent by any other means. If the PDP Borrower refuses any such delivery, a notice so refused shall nonetheless be deemed delivered. 

13 

(f) This PDP Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire understanding and agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the matters contained herein and therein, and shall completely and fully supersede all other prior agreements (including any proposal letter, commitment letter, and/or term sheet), both written and oral, between PDP Lender and PDP Borrower relating to the Obligations. Neither this PDP Agreement, nor any terms hereof, may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement of a change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought.

(g) This PDP Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. PDP Borrower may effectively deliver an executed counterpart of a signature page of any Required Document by facsimile or in electronic (“pdf” or “tif”) format, however PDP Borrower shall also deliver to PDP Lender manually-executed originals of each Required Document, but the failure of PDP Borrower to do so shall not affect the validity, enforceability or binding effect of any Required Document as against PDP Borrower. If PDP Borrower electronically signs this PDP Agreement, it is PDP Borrower’s intent to sign this PDP Agreement and submit it to PDP Lender electronically, thereby evidencing PDP Borrower’s intent to be bound by, and comply with all terms and conditions of this PDP Agreement. If PDP Borrower electronically signs this PDP Agreement, PDP Borrower’s decision to sign this PDP Agreement electronically is voluntary. PDP Borrower agrees that the words “execution,” “sign,” “signature,” and words of similar import in this PDP Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures and the storage of this PDP Agreement in electronic form. An electronically signed and stored version of this PDP Agreement shall have the same effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature and paper version of this PDP Agreement, as provided for under Applicable Law, including without limitation the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act of 2000 (15 U.S.C. § 7001 et seq.), the Electronic Signatures and Records Act of 1999 (NY State Technology Law § 301-309), and any successor legislation or other applicable state e-signature law. PDP Borrower acknowledges and agrees to the exclusive application of United States of America Federal Law and New York State Law with respect to the use of electronic signatures and electronic records, to use electronic signatures for the purpose of executing the Required Documents, and that electronic signatures operate as an original signature for all such purposes.

(h) Any provision of this PDP Agreement that may be determined to be prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective in such jurisdiction to the extent thereof without invalidating the remaining provisions of this PDP Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect. 

14 

(i) Subject to any consents or agreements required by Vendor, PDP Lender may at any time, upon notice to PDP Borrower, freely grant a security interest in, sell, assign, participate or otherwise transfer (an “Assignment”) all or any part of its interest in this PDP Agreement and the other Required Documents (including all associated rights associated with or secured thereby and the related international interests) or any amount due or to become due hereunder or thereunder, and PDP Borrower shall perform all of its obligations under the Required Documents, to the extent so transferred, for the benefit of the beneficiary of such Assignment (such beneficiary, including any successors and assigns, an “Assignee”). PDP Borrower hereby waives any right to assert, and agrees not to assert, against any Assignee any abatement, reduction, defense, setoff, recoupment, claim or counterclaim that PDP Borrower may have against PDP Lender. Upon the assumption by such Assignee of PDP Lender’s obligations hereunder, PDP Lender shall be relieved of any such assumed obligations. PDP Borrower hereby consents to any such assignment, grant, sale or transfer. If so directed in writing, PDP Borrower shall pay all amounts due or to become due under the Required Documents, including any of the same constituting associated rights or proceeds directly to the Assignee or any other party designated in writing by PDP Lender or such Assignee. PDP Borrower acknowledges and agrees that PDP ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s right to enter into an Assignment is essential to PDP Lender and, accordingly, waives any restrictions under Applicable Law with respect to an Assignment and any related remedies. Upon the request of PDP Lender or any Assignee, PDP ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ also agrees to comply with any and all other reasonable requirements of any such Assignee in connection with any such Assignment. PDP Lender shall reimburse the PDP Borrower for any reasonable and documented expenses incurred by PDP Borrower with respect to any such Assignment.

In the event any amount due hereunder is not paid on the due date thereof, PDP Borrower shall pay overdue interest on any delinquent payment or other Obligation due (by reason of acceleration or otherwise) from the due date thereof through the date of payment thereof at a rate of interest equal to the lesser of (a) twenty percent (20%) per annum, or (b) the maximum rate of interest allowable under then applicable law.

Each payment hereunder shall be made in lawful money of the United States and shall be payable to such account or address as the Holder hereof shall from time to time direct PDP Borrower. Whenever any payment to be made under this PDP Note shall be stated to be due on a Saturday, Sunday or a public holiday, or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest. All amounts received hereunder or in respect of this PDP Note shall be applied first, to accrued late charges and any other costs or expenses due and owing hereunder or under the terms of the PDP Agreement or with respect to any Obligations; second, to accrued interest; and third, to unpaid principal. It is the intention of Holder to comply with all applicable usury laws. Accordingly, it is agreed that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall any provision contained herein require or permit interest in excess of the maximum amount permitted by Applicable Law to be paid by PDP Borrower. If necessary to give effect to these provisions, Holder will, at its option, in accordance with Applicable Law, either refund any amount to PDP Borrower to the extent that it was in excess of that allowed by applicable law or credit such excess amount against the then unpaid principal balance hereunder.

Failure to pay this PDP Note or any installment of interest hereunder on demand or otherwise promptly when due, or default or failure in the performance or due observance of any of the terms, conditions or obligations hereunder or under the PDP Agreement or in any other agreement or instrument between PDP Borrower (or any endorser, guarantor, surety or other party liable for PDP Borrower’s obligations hereunder, or any other entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with PDP Borrower) and Holder, shall entitle Holder to accelerate the maturity of this PDP Note and to declare the entire unpaid principal balance and all accrued interest and other charges hereunder (including prepayment fees calculated as of the date of default) and under the PDP Agreement to be immediately due and payable, and to proceed at once to exercise each and every one of the remedies provided in the PDP Agreement, the other Loan Documents or otherwise available at law or in equity.

PDP Borrower and all other parties who may be liable (whether as endorsers, guarantors, sureties or otherwise) for payment of any sum or sums due or to become due under the terms of this PDP Note waive diligence, presentment, demand, protest, notice of dishonor and notice of any other kind whatsoever and agree to pay all costs incurred by Holder in enforcing its rights under this PDP Note or the PDP Agreement, including reasonable attorneys’ fees (including attorneys’ fees incurred in any appellate proceedings), and they do hereby consent to any number of renewals or extensions at any time in the payment of this PDP Note. No extension of time for payment of this PDP Note made by any agreement with any person now or hereafter liable for payment of this PDP Note shall operate to release, discharge, modify, change or affect the original liability of PDP Borrower under this PDP Note, either in whole or in part. No delay or failure by Holder hereof in exercising any right, power, privilege or remedy shall be deemed to be a waiver of the same or any part thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof or any failure to exercise the same in any instance preclude any future exercise thereof, or exercise of any other right, power, privilege or remedy, and the rights and remedies provided for hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy available at law or in equity. The Holder of this PDP Note may proceed against all or any of the Collateral securing this PDP Note or against any guarantor hereof, or may proceed contemporaneously or in the first instance against PDP Borrower, in such order and at such times following default hereunder as Holder may determine in its sole discretion.  All of PDP Borrower’s obligations under this PDP Note are absolute and unconditional, and shall not be subject to any offset or deduction whatsoever. PDP Borrower waives any right to assert, by way of counterclaim or affirmative defense in any action to enforce PDP Borrower’s obligations hereunder, any claim whatsoever against the Holder of this PDP Note. This PDP Note shall be binding upon PDP Borrower and its respective heirs, executors, administrators, representatives, successors, transferees and assigns and the benefits hereof shall extend to and include Holder and its successors, representatives, transferees and assigns. 

24 

ANY WAIVER OF ANY OF HOLDER’S RIGHTS OR REMEDIES SHALL BE EFFECTIVE ONLY IF SUCH WAIVER IS IN WRITING SIGNED BY HOLDER AND ONLY IN THE SPECIFIC INSTANCE AND FOR THE SPECIFIC PURPOSE FOR WHICH IT IS GIVEN. NO FAILURE TO EXERCISE, OR DELAY IN EXERCISING, ANY RIGHT HEREUNDER SHALL OPERATE AS A WAIVER THEREOF; NOR SHALL ANY FAILURE TO EXERCISE, OR PARTIAL EXERCISE OR, ANY RIGHT HEREUNDER PRECLUDE ANY OTHER OR FURTHER EXERCISE THEREOF OR THE EXERCISE OF ANY OTHER RIGHT. THIS PDP NOTE AND THE LEGAL RELATIONS OF PDP BORROWER AND HOLDER SHALL IN ALL RESPECTS BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES REGARDING THE CHOICE OF LAW (OTHER THAN THE PROVISIONS OF SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK) . PDP BORROWER HEREBY CONSENTS AND SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE FEDERAL DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK FOR THE PURPOSES OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF ITS OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTIONS THAT IT MAY HAVE TO THE VENUE OF SUCH COURTS. PDP BORROWER HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION BROUGHT ON OR WITH RESPECT TO THIS PDP NOTE.
