4.3.3 In the first calendar year of the Lease Term, Lessee will pay Engine Performance Restoration Maintenance Fund based upon an assumed Flight Hour-to-Cycle ratio of 1.8:1. A calculation of Lessee’s actual Flight Hour-to-Cycle ratio will be made annually as of May 1^st of each calendar year during the Lease Term, beginning on May 1, 2008, and any difference in Engine Performance Restoration Maintenance Fund will be reconciled on the date when the next Maintenance Fund payment is due (in accordance with Article 4.3.6) following such calculation. Lessee’s actual Flight Hour-to-Cycle ratio during such calendar year (or portion thereof) will set the Engine Performance Restoration Maintenance Fund for the succeeding calendar year.

4.3.4 If in any calendar year (or portion thereof) of the Lease Term, the Airframe is operated more Cycles than the maximum number of Cycles which would result from an average Flight Hour-to-Cycle cycle ratio of 1.25 to 1, Lessee will pay Lessor as additional Maintenance Fund ***** for each Airframe Cycle the Airframe actually operated during such period in excess of the number of Cycles which result from an average Flight Hour-to-Cycle ratio of 1.25 to 1. A calculation will be made as of May 1^st of each calendar year during the Lease Term, beginning on May 1, 2008, and such additional Maintenance Fund payment will be due and payable by Lessee on the date when the next Maintenance Fund payment is due (in accordance with Article 4.3.6) following such calculation.

4.3.5 The amounts of the Maintenance Funds in this Article 4.3 are expressed in April 2007 U.S. Dollars and will increase annually by ***** on May 1^st of each calendar year during the Lease Term, beginning on May 1, 2008.

If the fifteenth (15^th) day of any calendar month is not a Business Day, the Maintenance Funds will be due on the immediately succeeding Business Day. All Maintenance Funds for flying performed during the month in which the Termination Date occurs (and the preceding month, unless paid) will be paid on the Termination Date, unless otherwise agreed by the parties. Lessee will pay the monthly Airframe Structural Maintenance Fund and the monthly Landing Gear Maintenance Fund on a prorated basis for any period not constituting a full month during the Lease Term.

4.3.7 The Maintenance Funds shall be used for agreed maintenance, repair and overhaul of the Aircraft including the Airframe, Engine, Engine LLPs, APU and Landing Gear in accordance with the provisions of this Article 4 and Article 12 of this Lease. The Maintenance Funds therefore are not considered a deposit and subject in each case to Lessee’s rights and Lessor’s obligations under Article 12 and Article 17 of this Lease, cannot be subject of reimbursement to Lessee but shall be considered the sole and exclusive property of Lessor as owner of the Aircraft. No interest will accrue or be paid at any time to Lessee on such Maintenance Funds and, subject to Lessor’s obligations under Article 12 and Article 17, Lessor may commingle the Maintenance Funds with Lessor’s general funds or may determine in its sole discretion that such be received and administered by a designated third party which shall be acting as trustee in respect to such funds and which shall conduct the allocation thereof in accordance with this Lease.

4.4 Allocation of Payments

Lessor or any third party designated in conformity with Article 4.3.7 of this Lease shall apply, hold, retain, invest, pay and otherwise manage any amounts paid or recovered in respect of Lessee’s liabilities hereunder in accordance with the provisions of this Lease.

4.5.1 Payments due under this Lease will be made to the bank account(s) as Lessor may from time to time designate by written notice (the “Lessor’s Bank Account”).

4.5.2 When it is stated in this Lease that an instalment of the Security Deposit, the monthly Rent, Maintenance Funds or any other payment is due or must be paid or made by Lessee by a specified date, then such payment must actually be received by Lessor’s bank with instructions for deposit in Lessor’s Bank Account on or before such specified date.

4.6 Default Interest

If Lessor does not receive the Rent or any other amount on or before the specific date when due, Lessee will pay Lessor as supplemental Rent (by way of agreed compensation of the cost of money and not as a conventional penalty) interest on any due and unpaid amounts payable by Lessee under this Lease. Interest will be calculated at a per annum rate (based on a 360 day year) which is equal to ***** in effect on the date on which

***** Confidential portions of the material have been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

24(138)

the amount was originally due for the period from the date the amount originally was due through the date the amount actually is received at Lessor’s Bank Account or, in the case of Lessor’s performance of Lessee’s obligations hereunder, from the date of payment by Lessor through the date of Lessee’s repayment to Lessor (“Default Interest”).

4.7 No Deductions or Withholdings

4.7.1 All payments by Lessee under this Lease, including the Security Deposit, Rent, Maintenance Funds, Default Interest, fees, indemnities or any other item, will be made in full without any deduction or withholding whether in respect of setoff, counterclaim, duties, or Taxes (as defined in Article 14) imposed in the State of Registration or any jurisdiction from which such payments are made (other than Taxes excluded under Article 14.2) unless Lessee is prohibited by Law from doing so, in which event Lessee will gross up the payment amount such that the net payment received by Lessor after any deduction or withholding equals the amounts called for under this Lease. Lessee will also do all of the following:

(i) Ensure that the deduction or withholding does not exceed the minimum amount legally required;

(ii) Pay to the relevant Government Entities within the period for payment permitted by applicable Law the full amount of the deduction or withholding (including the full amount of any deduction or withholding from any additional amount paid pursuant hereto); and

(iii) Furnish to Lessor within thirty (30) days after each payment a certified copy of the corresponding tax form or an official receipt of the relevant Government Entities involved, or such other evidence of payment as is in form and substance acceptable to Lessor, acting reasonably, for all amounts so deducted or withheld.

4.7.2 As of the date of this Lease, Lessor is situated in Mexico and both parties agree that as of the date of this Lease no withholding Taxes are applicable in respect to any amounts payable hereunder by Lessee. Lessee will indemnify Lessor for any subsequent withholding Taxes imposed on any amounts payable hereunder arising as a result of changes in Mexican Law or the Law of any jurisdiction from which Lessee elects to make payments occurring after the Delivery Date and during the Lease Term, except for any such Tax or Taxes as may arise in connection with a voluntary or involuntary assignment, sale or other disposition by Lessor or any Lessor’s Lender of any of their respective right, title or interest in the Lease or the Aircraft or both which transfer does not arise as a result of the enforcement of any remedies by Lessor or Lessor’s Lender following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default or an assignment, sale or other disposition made at the request by Lessee or otherwise rendered necessary as a result of an act or omission of Lessee.

25(138)

4.8 Value Added Taxes

The Rent and other amounts payable by Lessee under this Lease are exclusive of any sales or use tax, value added tax, or similar tax, duty or imposition.

4.10 Net Lease

4.10.1 This Lease is a net lease and Lessee’s obligation to pay Rent and make other payments in accordance with this Lease will be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and regardless of other events, including the following:

(a) any right of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right (including any right of reimbursement) which Lessee may have against Lessor, Manufacturer, the Engine manufacturer or any other Person for any reason, including any claim Lessee may have for the foregoing;

(b) unavailability or interruption in use of the Aircraft for any reason, including a requisition thereof or any prohibition or interference with or other restriction against Lessee’s use, operation or possession of the Aircraft (whether by Law or otherwise), any defect in title, airworthiness, merchantability, fitness for any purpose, condition, design, specification or operation of any kind or nature of the Aircraft, the ineligibility of the Aircraft for any particular use or trade or for registration under the Laws of any jurisdiction or Total Loss of the Aircraft. In consideration of the foregoing and to the fullest extent applicable, Lessee hereby waives any rights in accordance with the provisions of Article 2445 and other applicable of the Federal Civil Code.;

(c) insolvency, concurso mercantil, bankruptcy, judicial recuperation, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, dissolution, liquidation, receivership, administration or similar proceedings by or against Lessor, Lessee, Manufacturer, the Engine manufacturer or any other Person;

(d) invalidity or unenforceability or lack of due authorization of or other defect in this Lease;

(e) failure or delay on the part of any party to perform its obligations under this Lease; or

(f) any other circumstance which but for this provision would or might have the effect of terminating or in any other way affecting any obligation of Lessee hereunder, other than a Total Loss, provided that Lessor shall have received all amounts then due and owing by Lessee to Lessor hereunder.

26(138)

4.10.2 This Lease shall not, except as expressly stated herein, be cancellable by Lessee and Lessee hereby expressly waives any and all right which it may now or at anytime hereafter have, whether by statute or otherwise, to terminate, xxxxx, cancel, quit, reduce, defer, suspend, or surrender this Lease, the Aircraft or any obligation assumed by Lessee hereunder. Nothing in this Article 4.10 will be construed to limit Lessee’s right to separately pursue in a court of law any claim it may have against any Person arising as a result of the breach of any obligation of such Person to Lessee.

4.9 Currency Indemnity

If under any applicable Law, whether as a result of a judgment against Lessee or the liquidation of Lessee or for any other reason, any payment hereunder is required to be made or recovered in a currency other than Dollars then, to the extent that the payment (when converted into Dollars at the “rate of exchange” on the date of payment or, in the case of a liquidation, the latest date for the determination of liabilities permitted by the applicable Law) falls short of the amount payable under this Lease, Lessee will as a separate and independent obligation, fully indemnify Lessor against the amount of the shortfall. If the amount received by Lessor upon converting the payment into Dollars exceeds the amount payable under this Lease, Lessor will remit such excess to Lessee. For the purposes of this paragraph “rate of exchange” means the rate at which Lessor is able on the relevant date to purchase Dollars in New York or London (at Lessor’s option) with such other currency.

4.10 Lessor Performance of Lessee Obligation

If Lessee fails to make any payment under this Lease to a third party in connection with the Aircraft or fails to perform any other obligation required under this Lease, Lessor may (but is not required to) at its election after the expiry of any applicable grace periods and without having waived all or any of its rights in Law and/or hereunder, perform such obligation and/or pay such amount. Within five (5) Business Days after written notice to Lessee of the amount paid by Lessor on behalf of Lessee, Lessee will repay such amount together with Default Interest from the date of payment by Lessor until the date of repayment by Lessee. Any payment or performance by Lessor of a Lessee obligation hereunder will not affect the occurrence or continuance of the corresponding Event of Default, provided, however, that Lessee’s repayment of the amounts required under this Article shall be sufficient to cure such Event of Default.

27(138)

4.11 Consideration for Rent and Other Amounts

The amount of the Rent and other payments contained herein are in consideration of Lessee’s waiver of warranties and indemnities set forth in Articles 7 and 15, respectively, and the other provisions of this Lease.

28(138)

5. CONDITION OF AIRCRAFT

For the Airframe, proper documentation includes without limitation a list of all routine and non-routine work cards with corresponding references to the MPD and an itemized invoice showing all labor and materials report. For both the Engines and APU, proper documentation includes without limitation a detailed description of the reason for removal, a shop teardown report, a shop findings report, a full description of the work scope, a completed LLP status listing both

52(138)

prior to and after the shop visit, information whether or not credits were provided due to life remaining on any removed LLPs and the amount of any such credits. For the Landing Gear, proper documentation includes without limitation evidence detailing the labor and material, total calendar time, hours and cycles on the Landing Gear both prior to and after the Overhaul. Additional documentation required for the Engine, APU and Landing Gear will include all back-to-birth documentation for any LLPs changed during such Overhaul.

12.7 Contribution Adjustment

Contribution from the Maintenance Funds will not be available for, items resulting from repairs for which Lessee has received proceeds of insurance or payments under any applicable warranties or required as a result of an Airworthiness Directive, manufacturer’s service bulletin, non-routine or unscheduled maintenance, faulty maintenance or installation, improper operations, misuse, neglect, accident, incident, ingestion, foreign object damage or other accidental cause (except to the extent the same results in the full restoration per the agreed criteria for reimbursement listed in each of the above-referenced items under this Article 12), external Engine Parts including quick engine change (QEC) Parts, thrust reversers or any of their associated components.

12.8 Costs in Excess of Maintenance Funds

Lessee will be responsible for payment of all costs in excess of the amounts contributed hereunder. If on any occasion the balance in the Airframe Structural Maintenance Fund, Engine Performance Restoration Maintenance Fund for a particular Engine, Engine LLP Maintenance Fund for a particular Engine, APU Maintenance Fund or Landing Gear Maintenance Fund (at the time of the structural check, in the case of the Airframe, or at the time of removal, in the case of an Engine, the APU and the Landing Gear) is insufficient to satisfy a claim for contribution in respect of the Airframe, such Engine, the APU or the Landing Gear, as applicable, the shortfall may not be carried forward or made the subject of any further claim for contribution.

12.9 Contribution after Termination Date and Retention of Maintenance Funds

Lessee may not submit any request for contribution from the Maintenance Funds after the Termination Date unless prior to such date Lessee has notified Lessor in writing that such outstanding request for contribution will be submitted after the Termination Date and the anticipated amount together with supporting documentation pursuant to Article 12.6. So long as Lessee has provided such notice to Lessor, Lessee may then submit such satisfactory evidence at any time within sixty (60) days after the Termination Date, provided however that Lessee may reasonably request an extension for an

53(138)

additional period to be agreed between Lessor and Lessee. Subject to the foregoing, any balance remaining in the Maintenance Funds on the Termination Date will be retained by Lessor, except in case of a Total Loss of the Aircraft or the Airframe, in which case Lessor will contribute to Lessee the balance of the Maintenance Funds held by Lessor on the Termination Date upon the payment of the Agreed Value.

54(138)

Lessee shall provide Lessor with evidence of such registration as soon as it becomes available. Lessee shall insure that the original certificate of registration for the Aircraft is kept on the Aircraft or, where it is permitted to be removed, in safe custody or as otherwise required by applicable Law.

13.3 Registration of this Lease

In accordance with the requirements of the Law from time to time, Lessee at its cost and expense, except as otherwise provided herein, will cause this Lease and any amendments, assignments, novations or agreements that are entered

Lessee will not allow the name of any other person to be placed on the Airframe, any Engine or the APU as a designation that constitutes a claim of ownership or a claim of any Security Interest, provided that nothing shall prohibit Lessee from placing its customary colors and insignia on the Airframe.

56(138)

14. TAXES

14.1 General Obligation of Lessee

Except as set forth in Article 14.2, Lessee agrees to pay promptly when due, and to indemnify and hold harmless each of Lessor and Lessor’s Lender (each a “Tax Indemnitee” and together the “Tax Indemnitees”) on a full indemnity basis from, all license and registration duties and all taxes, fees, levies, imposts, duties, charges, deductions or withholdings of any nature (including without limitation any asset, value added, franchise, transfer, sales, gross receipts, use, business, excise, turnover, personal property, stamp or other tax, duty or benefit (aprovechamientos)) together with any assessments, penalties, fines, additions to tax or interest thereon, however or wherever imposed (whether imposed upon Lessee, Lessor or any other Tax Indemnitee, on all or part of the Aircraft, the Engines or otherwise), by any Government Entity or taxing authority upon or with respect to, based upon or measured by any of the following (collectively “Taxes”):

(a) the Aircraft, Engines, APU or any Parts;

(b) the use, operation or maintenance of the Aircraft or carriage of passengers or freight during the Lease Term and until the Termination Date;

(c) this Lease, the payments due hereunder and the terms and conditions hereof; and

(d) the ownership, financing, delivery, import (including duties payable in connection with the importation of the Aircraft into Mexico) or export, return, sale, payment of Total Loss Proceeds or other disposition of the Aircraft.

14.2 Exceptions to Indemnity

The indemnity provided for in Article 14.1 does not extend to any of the following Taxes (“Excluded Taxes”):

(a) Taxes imposed upon a Tax Indemnitee on the net income, capital gains, profits, turnover, gross receipts or net worth of a Tax Indemnitee or franchise or similar Taxes imposed on a Tax Indemnitee;

(b) Taxes imposed upon a Tax Indemnitee attributable solely to facts or circumstances occurring during the period prior to Delivery or after the Termination Date and return of the Aircraft in the condition required hereunder;

57(138)

(c) Taxes imposed upon a Tax Indemnitee to the extent attributable solely to such Tax Indemnitee’s willful misconduct or breach of this Lease or any agreement, document or instrument entered into and/or delivered in connection herewith (unless such breach was caused by an act or omission of Lessee);

(d) Taxes imposed upon a Tax Indemnitee as a result of a sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition, whether voluntary or involuntary, by a Tax Indemnitee of all or any part of its interests in the Aircraft and/or this Lease other than any such disposition arising as a result of the enforcement of any remedies by Lessor or Lessor’s Lender in connection with an Event of Default or a Total Loss;

(e) Taxes imposed upon a Tax Indemnitee as a result of any past, present or future activities of such Tax Indemnitee in the jurisdiction imposing any such Taxes which are unrelated to the transactions contemplated by this Lease;

(f) Taxes attributable to a Lessor’s Lien or to the extent that such Taxes would not have arisen or been assessed in the absence of a Lessor’s Lien;

(g) Taxes which, absent any Default by Lessee, constitute penalties, fines or interest imposed on Taxes indemnified by Lessee hereunder where the imposition of such penalties, fines or interest is caused solely by reason of the failure of any Tax Indemnitee to file tax returns pursuant to the requirements in any relevant jurisdiction so long as such Tax Indemnitee is given notice about such filing requirement reasonably in advance of the applicable filing deadline and such Tax Indemnitee fails to exercise reasonable diligence and file such return;

(h) Taxes for which a Tax Indemnitee has received full payment under any other provision of this Lease;

(i) Taxes which are not yet due or are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, during the pendency of such proceedings; and

(j) Taxes or additional or incremental Taxes to the extent the same are attributable to the failure of a Tax Indemnitee to give timely notice of a claim under this Article 14 and/or to take timely action in contesting or permitting the contest of any such Tax which may be contested by such Tax Indemnitee or, in accordance with this Article 14, Lessee if required to take such action, but only if such failure precludes or prejudices a contest of the relevant Tax(es).

58(138)

14.3 After Tax Basis

The amount which Lessee is required to pay with respect to any Taxes indemnified against under Article 14.1 is an amount sufficient to restore the affected Tax Indemnitee on an after tax basis to the same position in which such Tax Indemnitee would have been if such Taxes had not been incurred.

14.4 Timing of Payment

Any amount payable to a Tax Indemnitee pursuant to this Article 14 will be paid within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of a written demand therefor from such Tax Indemnitee accompanied by a written statement describing in reasonable detail the basis for such indemnity and the computation of the amount so payable, provided, however, that such amount need not be paid by Lessee prior to the earlier of (a) the date any Tax is payable to the appropriate Government Entity or taxing authority or (b) in the case of amounts which are being contested by Lessee in good faith by appropriate proceedings or by such Tax Indemnitee pursuant to Article 14.5, the date such contest is finally resolved.

14.5 Contests

If a claim is made against a Tax Indemnitee for Taxes with respect to which Lessee is liable for a payment or indemnity under this Lease or for a “gross-up” pursuant to Article 4.8 of this Lease, such Tax Indemnitee will promptly give Lessee notice in writing of such claim, provided, however, that such Tax Indemnitee’s failure to give notice will not relieve Lessee of its obligations hereunder except to the extent such failure materially impairs or precludes Lessee’s ability to contest the claim or results in penalties, interest or additions to Taxes which are attributable to such delay, to the extent of such penalties, interest or additions. So long as (a) a contest of such Taxes does not involve any likelihood of the sale, forfeiture or loss of the Aircraft or any interest therein, and (b) adequate reserves have been made or set aside in accordance with Financial Information Norms or “Normas de Información Financiera” (NIF) for such Taxes or, if required, an adequate bond has been posted, then such Tax Indemnitee at Lessee’s written request will in good faith, with due diligence and at Lessee’s expense, contest (or permit Lessee to contest in the name of Lessee or such Tax Indemnitee) the validity, applicability or amount of such Taxes.

14.6 Refunds

Upon receipt by Tax Indemnitee of a refund of all or any part of any Taxes (including any deductions or withholdings referred to in Article 4.8) which Lessee has paid, such Tax Indemnitee will pay to Lessee the net amount of such Taxes refunded.

59(138)

14.7 Cooperation in Filing Tax Returns

Lessee and the Lessor will cooperate with one another in providing information which may be reasonably required to fulfill each party’s tax filing requirements and any audit information request arising from such filing.

14.8 Survival of Obligations

The representations, warranties, indemnities and agreements of Lessee provided for in this Article 14 will survive the Termination Date.

14.9 Protection

Each of the Tax Indemnitees shall be entitled to all rights of ‘Lessor’ under this Article 14, mutatis mutandis, and may enforce the provisions of such article directly against Lessee, subject to the terms hereof.

14.10 Mitigation

If Lessee is required to pay, indemnify against, reimburse, deduct or withhold any Taxes under this Lease, Lessor agrees, at Lessee’s request and at Lessee’s cost and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with Lessee in order to mitigate such Taxes.

60(138)

15. INDEMNITIES

15.1 General Indemnity

Except as set forth in Article 15.2, Lessee agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of Lessor and Lessor’s Lender and their respective successors, permitted assigns, shareholders, members, beneficial interest owners, subsidiaries, affiliates, trustees, directors, officers, duly appointed agents, servants, employees and designated representatives (individually an “Indemnitee” and collectively “Indemnitees”) from any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages and prejudices, penalties, claims, actions, suits, costs, disbursements and expenses (including legal fees, costs and related expenses) of every kind and nature (collectively “Damages and Prejudices”), which are imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee and which are in any way related to, based on or arise out of any of the following:

(a) this Lease or the transactions contemplated hereby;

(b) the operation, possession, use, non-use, control, leasing, subleasing, maintenance, storage, overhaul, testing or inspections of the Aircraft, any Engine, the APU or any Part (whether by Lessee, any sublessee or any other Person) during the Lease Term and until the Termination Date (including the acceptance flights at return), whether or not the same is in compliance with the terms of this Lease, including without limitation claims for death, personal injury, property damage, other loss or harm to any Person and claims relating to any Laws, including without limitation environmental control, noise and pollution laws, rules or regulations;

(c) the manufacture, design, acceptance by Lessee or any sublessee, rejection by Lessee or any sublessee, delivery to Lessee or any sublessee, return by Lessee or any sublessee, sale arising as the direct consequence of an Event of Default, import by Lessee or any sublessee, export by Lessee or any sublessee, condition, repair, Modification, servicing, enforcement of warranties whether in Lessor’s or Lessee’s name, customer, product support, information or training provided by Manufacturer and other vendors, airworthiness, registration, re-registration, performance, sublease, merchantability, fitness for use, substitution or replacement of the Aircraft, an Engine, the APU or any Part under this Lease or other transfer of use or possession of the Aircraft, an Engine, the APU or any Part prior to the Termination Date, including without limitation latent and other defects, whether or not discoverable and patent, trademark or copyright infringement;

61(138)

(d) the prevention or attempt to prevent the arrest, confiscation, seizure, taking in execution, impounding, forfeiture or detention of the Aircraft, or in securing the release of the Aircraft; or

(e) without duplication of amounts recovered under Article 23 hereof, as a consequence of any Default or Event of Default by Lessee or any Sublessee.

The foregoing indemnity by Lessee is intended to include and cover any Damages and Prejudices to which an Indemnitee may be subject (in contract, tort, strict liability or under any other theory) regardless of the negligence, active or passive or any other type, of such Indemnitee, so long as such Damages and Prejudices does not fall within any of the exceptions listed in Article 15.2.

15.2 Exceptions to General Indemnities

The indemnity provided for in Article 15.1 will not extend to the following Damages and Prejudices of any Indemnitee:

(a) Damages and Prejudices which result or arise from the willful misconduct or breach of any obligation, covenant, representation or warranty of such Indemnitee;

(b) Damages and Prejudices which result or arise from facts and circumstances which are attributable to acts or events which occur after the Termination Date and return of the Aircraft to Lessor in the condition required hereunder, but in any such case only to the extent not attributable to acts or omissions of Lessee during the Lease Term;

(c) Damages and Prejudices which result or arise from facts or circumstances occurring prior to the Delivery Date;

(d) Damages and Prejudices which are representing Taxes covered by Lessee’s indemnity obligations under Article 14 hereof;

(e) Damages and Prejudices which are attributable to a sale, assignment, transfer or other conveyance of any right, title or interest of an Indemnitee in or to the Aircraft and/or this Lease, unless the same results from the existence of an Event of Default, Total Loss or the exercise of remedies by Lessor; or

(f) Damages and Prejudices which constitute normal operating or overhead expenses of Lessee.

62(138)

15.3 After Tax Basis

The amount which Lessee will be required to pay with respect to any Damages and Prejudices indemnified against under Article 15.1 will be an amount sufficient to restore the Indemnitee, on an after tax basis, to the same position such Indemnitee would have been in had such Damages and Prejudices not been incurred.

15.4 Timing of Payment

It is the intent of the parties that each Indemnitee will have the right to indemnification for Damages and Prejudices hereunder as soon as a claim is made and as soon as such Damages and Prejudices are incurred, whether or not such claim is meritorious and whether or not liability is established (but subject to Article 15.8). Lessee will pay an Indemnitee for Damages and Prejudices pursuant to this Article 15 within five (5) Business Days after receipt of a written demand therefor from such Indemnitee accompanied by a written statement describing in reasonable detail the basis for such indemnity, unless Lessee is contesting such claim in good faith by appropriate proceedings in which case payment, if due, will be made within five (5) Business Days of final determination of such contest.

15.5 Subrogation

Upon the payment in full of any indemnity pursuant to this Article 15 by Lessee, Lessee will be subrogated to any right of the Indemnitee in respect of the matter against which such indemnity has been made.

15.6 Notice

Each Indemnitee and Lessee will give prompt written notice one to the other of any liability of which such party has knowledge for which Lessee is, or may be, liable under Article 15.1, provided, however, that failure to give such notice will not terminate any of the rights of Indemnitees under this Article 15, except to the extent a failure by an Indemnitee to provide such notice materially impairs, precludes or prejudices Lessee’s right or ability to defend and/or contest the claim giving rise to the Indemnitee’s claim under this Article 15.

15.7 Refunds

Upon receipt by an Indemnitee of a refund, insurance proceeds or other recovery of amounts which Lessee has paid pursuant to this Article 15, such Indemnitee will pay to Lessee the net amount of such amounts received.

63(138)

15.8 Defense of Claims

Unless a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lessee and its insurers will have the right (in each such case at Lessee’s sole expense) to investigate or, provided that Lessee (or its insurers to the extent such claim is covered by insurance) have not reserved the right to dispute liability with respect to any insurance policies pursuant to which coverage is sought, defend or compromise any claim for which indemnification is sought pursuant to Article 15.1 and each Indemnitee will cooperate with Lessee or its insurers with respect thereto. If Lessee or its insurers are retaining attorneys to handle such claim, such counsel must be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitees. If not, the Indemnitees will have the right to retain counsel of their choice at Lessee’s expense.

15.9 Survival of Obligation

Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, the provisions of this Article 15 will survive the Termination Date and continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any breach by Lessor or Lessee of the terms of this Lease, the termination of the lease of the Aircraft to Lessee under this Lease or the repudiation by Lessor or Lessee of this Lease.

64(138)

16. INSURANCE

16.1 Categories of Insurance

From the Delivery Date and throughout the Lease Term and until the Termination Date, Lessee will, at its own expense, effect and maintain in full force and effect the types of insurance and amounts of insurance (including deductibles) described in Exhibit C through reputable aviation insurance brokers and insurers as may be reasonably acceptable to Lessor in Mexico City, London, New York or such other insurance markets as mutually agreed upon by the parties. Pursuant to Exhibit C, (i) Lessee will cause Lessor or Lessor’s Lender, as designated by Lessor, to be named as loss payee or contract party for the Agreed Value under the hull and spares insurances required to be maintained by Lessee under the Lease and (ii) Lessee will cause Lessor, Lessor’s Lender and each Indemnitee and each of their respective successors, permitted assigns, shareholders, members, beneficial interest owners, subsidiaries, affiliates, trustees, directors, officers, agents, servants, employees and representatives to be named as additional insureds under Lessee’s aviation and general third party liability insurance maintained by Lessee under this Lease.

16.2 Write Back of Any Date Recognition Exclusion

In the event any of Lessee’s insurances (either the primary insurance or the reinsurance) contain any date recognition exclusion clause or similar clause excluding from such insurance coverage damage to any property (including the Aircraft) or death or injury to any person on account of accidents, incidents or occurrences caused by date recognition or other Year 2000 related problems, Lessee at its cost will obtain for the benefit of itself and Lessor the broadest write back available in the London insurance market with respect to such exclusion.

16.3 Third Party War Liability Insurance

Lessee will carry third party war risk liability insurance in the amount required by Exhibit C.

16.4 Installation of Third Party Engine

If Lessee installs an engine not owned by Lessor on the Aircraft, either (a) Lessee’s hull insurance on the Aircraft will automatically increase to such higher amount as is necessary in order to satisfy Lessor or Lessor’s Lender’s, as applicable, requirement to receive the Agreed Value in the event of a Total Loss and the amount required by the third party engine owner or (b) separate additional insurance on such engine will attach in order to satisfy separately the requirements of the Lessee to such third party engine owner.

65(138)

16.5 Insurance for Indemnities

The insurance referred to in Article 16.1 will in each case include and insure (to the extent of the risks covered by the policies) the indemnity provisions of Article 15 and Lessee will cause Lessor and Lessor’s Lender to be named as additional insureds in respect of the coverage provided by Lessee’s Third Party Legal Liability and Products Liability insurance for a period of two (2) years following the Termination Date. Such Policies shall be maintained in accordance with prudent industry practice for similarly situated air carriers.

16.6 Renewal

Prior to the expiration or termination date of any insurance required hereunder, Lessee will provide Lessor with fax confirmation from Lessee’s insurance brokers that the insurances required hereunder have been renewed or replaced in conformity with the provisions hereof effective as of such termination date and that a renewal Certificate of Insurance and Brokers’ Letter of Undertaking evidencing such renewal or replacement and complying with Exhibit C will be issued no later than on the termination date of the prior certificate and furnished to Lessor within seven (7) days after such renewal.

16.7 Assignment of Rights by Lessor

If Lessor assigns, transfers or otherwise conveys all or any portion of its rights in or to the Aircraft or this Lease as permitted by and in conformity with the relevant provisions of this Lease, Lessee will, upon request, procure that such Person be added as loss payee and/or additional insured under the policies effected hereunder and enjoy the same rights and insurance enjoyed by Lessor under such policies. Lessor and the other Indemnitees will nevertheless continue to be covered by such policies for the period required hereunder.

16.8 Deductibles

If there is a material adverse change in the financial condition of Lessee which Lessor reasonably believes will cause Lessee to be unable to pay the deductible upon the occurrence of a partial loss of the Aircraft or an Engine, then Lessor may upon consultation with Lessee and its insurance brokers require Lessee at Lessee’s expense to lower its deductibles on the insurance maintained hereunder to a level which is available on commercially reasonable terms in the insurance market.

66(138)

16.9 Insurance for Wet Lease Operations

In the event Lessee is performing wet lease operations with the Aircraft pursuant to Article 10.6 and the wet lessee is carrying the primary passenger, baggage cargo liability insurance with respect to the flights, then such insurance must meet the requirements of Exhibit C, including the naming of the additional insureds and the inclusion of the other endorsements set forth in Exhibit C. Moreover, Lessee will at all times carry contingent passenger, baggage and cargo liability insurances for such flights. Prior to commencement of wet lease operations for a particular wet lessee, Lessor will receive certificates of insurance from the insurance brokers for Lessee and, if applicable, the wet lessee evidencing such coverages if insurance for such wet lease operations is not covered under Lessee’s policies for which a Certificate of Insurance has already been delivered to Lessor.

16.10 Information

Lessee will provide Lessor with any information reasonably requested by Lessor from time to time concerning the insurance required to be maintained hereunder with respect to the Aircraft or in connection with any claim being made thereunder.

16.11 Currency

All proceeds of insurance pursuant to this Lease will be payable in Dollars except as may otherwise be required by applicable Law.

16.12 Grounding of Aircraft

If at any time any of the insurance required pursuant to this Lease will cease to be in full force and effect, Lessee will forthwith ground the Aircraft and keep the Aircraft grounded until such time as such insurance is in full force and effect again unless otherwise permitted by Lessor and by applicable Law except in respect of any insurance which ceases to be in effect in respect of all carriers and not specifically Lessee.

16.13 Failure to Insure

If at any time Lessee fails to maintain insurance in compliance with this Article 16, Lessor will be entitled but not bound to do any of the following (without prejudice to any other rights which it may have under this Lease by reason of such failure):

(a) to pay any premiums due or to effect or maintain insurance satisfactory to Lessor or otherwise remedy such failure in such manner as Lessor considers appropriate (and Lessee will upon demand reimburse Lessor in full for any amount so expended in that connection); or

(b) at any time while such failure is continuing, to require the Aircraft to remain at any airport or (as the case may be), proceed to and remain at any airport designated by Lessor, until such failure is remedied to Lessor’s satisfaction.

67(138)

16.14 Reinsurance

Any reinsurance will be maintained with reinsurers and brokers of international repute, commonly participating in the international aviation insurance markets and reasonably acceptable to Lessor. Such reinsurance will contain each of the following terms and will in all other respects (including amount) be satisfactory to Lessor:

(a) the same terms as the original insurance;

(b) a cut through and assignment clause satisfactory to Lessor; and

(c) (without prejudice to the relevant cut through clause) payment will be made notwithstanding (i) any bankruptcy, judicial recuperation, insolvency, liquidation or dissolution of any of the original insurers and/or (ii) that the original insurers have made no payment under the original insurance policies.

16.15 Limit on Hull in favor of Lessee

Lessee may carry hull all risks and hull war and allied perils on the Aircraft in excess of the Agreed Value (which is payable to Lessor or Lessor’s Lender, as applicable) provided that such excess insurance which would be payable to Lessee in the event of a Total Loss will not prejudice the insurances required herein or the recovery by Lessor’s Lender thereunder. Lessee agrees that it will not create or permit to exist any liens or encumbrances over the insurances, or its interest therein, except as constituted by this Lease.

16.16 AVN 67B

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 16 and Exhibits C and D hereto, for so long as it remains the general practice of air carriers to insure equipment financed or leased on the basis of the Airline Finance/Lease Endorsement AVN 67B or its equivalent, Lessee may maintain insurances in respect of the Aircraft and this Lease which incorporate the terms and conditions of AVN 67B. To the extent any provision of AVN 67B conflicts with or is otherwise inconsistent with the requirements of this Article 16 and Exhibits C and D hereto, then the provisions of such terms and conditions of AVN 67B shall be deemed to satisfy the relevant requirements of this Lease.

68(138)

17. LOSS, DAMAGE AND REQUISITION

Throughout the Lease Term and until the Termination Date, Lessee will bear all risk of loss, theft, damage and destruction to the Aircraft.

17.1 Definitions

17.5 Total Loss of Engine and Not Airframe

17.5.1 Upon a Total Loss of any Engine not installed on the Airframe or a Total Loss of an Engine installed on the Airframe not involving a Total Loss of the Airframe, Lessee will replace such Engine as soon as reasonably practicable by duly conveying to Lessor title to another engine from Lessee (or another Person) (a) free and clear of all Security Interests (except Permitted Liens), (b) in airworthy condition and of the same or improved model, service bulletin and modification status and having a value and utility at least equal to the Engine which sustained the Total Loss, considering also the age of the engine, and (c) in the same or better operating condition as the Engine which sustained a Total Loss, including time in service, Flight Hours and Cycles since new and Flight Hours and Cycles available to the next inspection, Overhaul or scheduled or anticipated removal and the thrust rating at which any modules have been operated. Such replacement engine will be an “Engine” as defined herein and the Engine which sustained such Total Loss will cease to be an “Engine.” For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that the Engine that sustained the Total Loss shall be replaced by an Engine of similar or better condition as described

71(138)

above, the available amounts in the Engine Performance Restoration Maintenance Fund originally for the Engine that sustained the Total Loss shall “carry over” and be applicable in accordance with the terms of this Lease for maintenance of the replacement engine as if such had been the original Engine.

17.5.2 Lessee agrees at its own expense to take such action as Lessor may request in order that any such replacement engine becomes the property of Lessor and is leased hereunder on the same terms as the destroyed Engine. Lessee’s obligation to pay Rent will continue in full force and effect, but an amount equal to the Net Total Loss Proceeds received by Lessor with respect to such destroyed Engine will, subject to Lessor’s right to deduct therefrom any amounts then due and payable by Lessee under this Lease, be paid to Lessee.

17.6.1 Upon a Total Loss of the APU when not installed on the Airframe or a Total Loss of the APU while installed on the Airframe not involving a Total Loss of the Airframe, Lessee will replace such APU as soon as reasonably possible by duly conveying to Lessor title to another auxiliary power unit (a) free and clear of all Security Interests (except Permitted Liens) of any kind or description, (b) in airworthy condition and of the same or improved model, service bulletin and modification status and having a value and utility at least equal to the APU which sustained the Total Loss, (c) not older (by reference to serial number or manufacture date) than the APU delivered by Lessor to Lessee with the Aircraft on the Delivery Date and (d) in the same or better operating condition as the APU which sustained the Total Loss, including time in service, Flight Hours and Cycles since new and Flight Hours and Cycles available to the next inspection, Overhaul or scheduled or anticipated removal. Such replacement auxiliary power unit will be the “APU” as defined herein and the auxiliary power unit which sustained such Total Loss will cease to be the “APU.” For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that the APU that sustained the Total Loss shall be replaced by an APU of similar or better condition as described above, the available amounts in the APU Maintenance Fund originally for the APU that sustained the Total Loss shall “carry over” and be applicable in accordance with the terms of this Lease for maintenance of the replacement APU as if such had been the original APU.

17.6.2 Lessee agrees at its own expense to take such action as Lessor may request in order that any such replacement APU becomes the property of Lessor and is leased hereunder on the same terms as the destroyed APU. Lessee’s obligation to pay Rent will continue in full force and effect, but an amount equal to the Net Total Loss Proceeds received by Lessor with respect to such destroyed APU will, subject to Lessor’s right to deduct therefrom any amounts then due and payable by Lessee under this Lease, be paid to Lessee.

Lessee will notify Lessor forthwith of any loss, theft or damage to the Aircraft for which the cost of repairs is estimated to exceed *****, together with Lessee’s proposal for carrying out the repair. In the event that Lessor does not agree with Lessee’s proposals for repair, Lessor will so notify Lessee within two (2) Business Days after its receipt of such proposal. Lessee and Lessor will then consult with Manufacturer and Lessee and Lessor agree to accept as conclusive, and be bound by, Manufacturer’s directions or recommendations as to the manner in which to carry out such repairs. If Manufacturer declines to give directions or recommendations, Lessee will carry out the repairs in accordance with the directions of Lessor.

17.7.3 To the extent that any insurance proceeds received by Lessee from its insurers do not cover the cost of repair work on the Aircraft in accordance with this Article 17.7 and Lessor or Lessor’s Lender has received additional insurance proceeds from Lessee’s insurers with respect to such repair work, Lessor will (subject to Lessor’s right to deduct therefrom any amounts then due and payable by Lessee under this Lease on account of an Event of Default and submission by Lessee of documentation in support of such excess repair costs) procure that such insurance proceeds received by Lessor or Lessor’s Lender are paid to Lessee as and when such repair work is performed on the Aircraft.

17.8 Government Requisition

If the Aircraft, Airframe, any Engine or the APU is requisitioned for use by any Government Entity, Lessee will promptly notify Lessor of such requisition.

Lessee shall at its sole cost and expense conduct all actions, and take all steps as may be necessary or desirable before any administrative and judicial authorities or entities including assisting Lessor as it shall be necessary in the filing and defense of a terceria or any similar or equivalent procedure or judicial incident in order to promptly remove such detention or securement and to demonstrate the ownership rights of Lessor in respect to the Aircraft, the Airframe any Engine or the APU or any other Part.

Regardless of Lessor’s exercise of any remedy or remedies, Lessee’s obligations under this Lease will continue (including, without limitation, the obligations set forth in Articles 15 and 16) until the same have been fully discharged in accordance with the terms hereof.

When any circumstances shall occur resultant from which Lessee shall be required by Lessor to return the Aircraft, the Airframe, any Engine, the APU or any Part thereof in accordance with the terms of this Lease or upon commencement by Lessor of any suit, claim or upon commencement of any controversy, judicial or otherwise, related with the Aircraft, the rights of possession thereof or this Lease, the Lessee shall, for as long as it shall be in possession of the Aircraft, the Airframe, any Engine, the APU or any Part thereof, be considered as a gratuitous trustee (depositario) of the Aircraft, the Airframe, any Engine, the APU or any Part thereof in accordance with the terms of the Second Volume, Title IV (Libro Segundo, Título IV), of the Commercial Code. For such purpose, Lessee hereby (i) expressly waives any right to receive any compensation for its acts as trustee in accordance with this Lease, (ii) acknowledge that it shall not be entitled to the use or disposition of the Aircraft, the Airframe, any Engine, the APU or any Part thereof, which will be maintained at the disposal of the Lessor, (iii) acknowledges that the Lessor will be under no obligation to indemnify, reimburse, or pay the Lessee the expenses in which, if any, Lessee shall incur for the conservation and maintenance of the Aircraft, the Airframe, any Engine, the APU or any Part thereof in its capacity as trustee of the same, (iv) acknowledge that it shall have no right of detention of the Aircraft, the Airframe, any Engine, the APU or any

23.4 De-registration and Export of Aircraft

If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lessor may take all steps necessary to terminate the lease, deregister the Aircraft, remove the Aircraft from the Operating Permit of Lessee and export the Aircraft from the State of Registration and Lessee shall assist Lessor herewith in all respects.

23.5 Lessee Liability for Damages and Prejudices

If an Event of Default occurs, in addition to all other remedies available at Law or in equity and in addition to any other indemnities as provided in Article 15, Lessor has the right to recover from Lessee and Lessee will pay Lessor within five (5) Business Days after Lessor’s written demand, all of the following:

(a) all amounts which are then due and unpaid hereunder and which become due prior to the earlier of Lessor’s recovery of possession of the Aircraft or Lessee making an effective tender thereof;

(b) subject to Lessor’s obligation under Article 23.9, in the event that Lessor shall have re-leased or sold the Aircraft, Lessor may if it shall so elect, demand that Lessee pay to Lessor any accrued but unpaid Rent up to and including the date of the commencement of the re-leasing or the date of sale plus the excess of:

(i) the aggregate unpaid Rent for the Aircraft which would have otherwise have become due hereunder over the Lease Term but for the Event of Default discounted monthly to present value (calculated in accordance with the amount set out in Article 23.7 of this Lease) as at the date of the commencement of the re-leasing, over

(ii) in the case of re-leasing, the aggregate rental payments to become due under the re-leasing from the date of the commencement of the term of the re-leasing to the date upon which the Lease Term for the Aircraft would have expired pursuant to this Lease but for the Event of Default, discounted monthly to present value (calculated in accordance with the amount set out in Article 23.7 of this Lease) as of the date of commencement of the term of the re-leasing, or

105(138)

(iii) in the case of a sale, the aggregate fair market rental value of the Aircraft (as determined by a recognized independent aircraft appraiser chosen by Lessor) for a period equal to the remainder of the Lease Term for the Aircraft, after discounting such fair market rental value to present value (calculated in accordance with the amount set out in Article 23.7 of this Lease) as at the date such valuation is determined by the recognized independent aircraft appraiser;

(c) all out-of-pocket costs in light of the circumstances incurred by Lessor in exercising its remedies hereunder, including but not limited to repossession costs, legal fees, Aircraft storage costs, Aircraft re-lease or sale costs;

(d) any amount of additional principal, interest, fees or other sums paid or payable on account of funds borrowed in order to carry any unpaid amount;

(e) subject to Lessor’s obligation under Article 23.9, any loss, cost, expense or liability sustained by Lessor due to Lessee’s failure to redeliver the Aircraft in the condition required by this Lease; and

(f) subject to Lessor’s obligation under Article 23.9, any other loss, damage, expense, cost or liability which Lessor suffers or incurs as a result of the Event of Default and/or termination of this Lease, including an amount sufficient to fully compensate Lessor for any loss of or damage to Lessor’s residual interest in the Aircraft caused by Lessee’s default.

23.6 Waiver of Default

By written notice to Lessee, Lessor may at its election waive any Default or Event of Default and its consequences and rescind and annul any prior notice of termination of this Lease. The respective rights of the parties will then be as they would have been had no Default or Event of Default occurred and no such notice been given.

23.7 Present Value of Payments

In calculating Lessor’s damages hereunder, upon an Event of Default all Rent and other amounts which would have been due hereunder during the Lease Term if an Event of Default had not occurred will be calculated on a present value basis using a discounting rate to be agreed upon between the parties at the time of calculation, discounted to the earlier of the date on which Lessor obtains possession of the Aircraft or Lessee makes an effective tender thereof, regardless of the condition thereof.

106(138)

23.8 Use of Termination Date

For avoidance of doubt, it is agreed that if this Lease terminates and the Aircraft is repossessed by Lessor due to an Event of Default, then, notwithstanding the use of the term “Termination Date” in this Lease, the period of the Lease Term and the “Expiration Date” will be utilized in calculating the damages to which Lessor is entitled pursuant to Article 23.5.

23.9 Mitigation of Damages

Lessor agrees to act in a commercially reasonable manner to mitigate any damages it may incur as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default.

107(138)

26.1 Expenses

Each of Lessor and Lessee shall bear its own costs and expenses in respect of the negotiation and execution of this Lease and the other Operative Documents, including the fees and disbursements of its counsel, brokers and agents. Lessee shall bear the cost of translating this Lease into Spanish and certifying such translation by a translation expert listed as such by the Superior Tribunal of Justice of the Federal District of Mexico or by the Council of the Federal Judicature (and any related necessary documents), if required for the registration or the enforcement thereof in the State of Registration or in Mexico. Lessee shall also pay all costs, fees and expenses required to have this Lease ratified by a mercantile broker or by a notary public (and any related necessary documents) ratified, notarized and legalized as applicable for the registration or enforcement thereof in the State of Registration or in Mexico. If a party hereto (the “Requesting Party”) requests any approvals, consents, waivers, modifications or amendments hereto, such Requesting Party shall reimburse the other party for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred by such other party in connection with such approvals, consents, waivers, modifications or amendments.

26.2 Power of Attorney

Lessee agrees to provide an irrevocable power of attorney for deregistration, removal of the Aircraft from Lessee’s Operating Certificate and export of the Aircraft, the Airframe, any Engines and any Part thereof and for collection of insurance proceeds in substantially the same form as Exhibit F hereto for the purpose of enforcing Lessor’s rights in respect of this Lease, including without limitation, the return, repossession, de-registration and exportation of the Aircraft. Lessee will take all steps required under the Laws of the State of Registration to provide such power of attorney to Lessor and Lessor’s Lender and to any individuals to whom such shall indicate with capacity of substitution and delegation in compliance with the requirements of Law for it to be valid and fully enforceable by Lessor. Lessor hereby agrees that in the event that it shall act pursuant to the foregoing powers of attorney in absence of the existence of an Event of Default it shall be liable to Lessee for the damages and prejudices that may result from such acts.

111(138)

26.3 Lessor Performance for Lessee

The exercise by Lessor of its remedy of performing a Lessee obligation hereunder is not a waiver of and will not relieve Lessee from the performance of such obligation at any subsequent time or from the performance of any of its other obligations hereunder.

26.4 Lessor’s Payment Obligations

Any obligation of Lessor under this Lease to pay or release any amount to Lessee is conditioned upon (a) all amounts then due and payable by Lessee to Lessor under this Lease having been paid in full and (b) no Default or Event of Default having occurred and continuing hereunder at the time such payment or release of payment is payable to Lessee provided however, that upon cure of any such Default or Event of Default, whether by or on behalf of Lessee directly or by application of amounts so withheld, Lessor shall forthwith pay to Lessee the amount so withheld less the amount applied in full or partial cure of any such Default or Event of Default.

26.5 Materiality

For the purpose of this Lease and the other Operative Documents, the terms “material” or “materially” shall whenever such terms shall be applicable, except in reference to actual items of equipment or repair or where the context otherwise indicates or requires, be understood to be in reference to the substantial part or to the majority proportion of the concept or event that it intends to qualify.

26.6 Usury Laws

The parties intend to contract in strict compliance with any applicable usury Laws. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Operative Documents, Lessee will not be obligated to pay Default Interest or other interest in excess of the maximum non-usurious interest rate, as in effect from time to time, which may by applicable Law be charged, contracted for, reserved, received or collected by Lessor in connection with the Operative Documents. During any period of time in which the then applicable highest lawful rate is lower than the Default Interest rate, Default Interest will accrue and be payable at such highest lawful rate; however, if at later times such highest lawful rate is greater than the Default Interest rate, then Lessee will pay Default Interest at the highest lawful rate until the Default Interest which is paid by Lessee equals the amount of interest that would have been payable in accordance with the interest rate set forth in Article 4.6.

112(138)

26.7 Delegation by Lessor

Lessor may delegate to any Person(s) all or any of the rights, powers or discretion vested in it by this Lease and any such delegation may be made upon such terms and conditions as Lessor thinks fit provided, however, no such delegation shall be deemed in any manner to relieve Lessor of any of its obligations hereunder in respect of all of which Lessor shall remain liable to the same extent as if no such delegation hade been made and further provided that no such delegation shall result in any cost, expense, liability or obligation in excess of or in addition to these for which Lessee would otherwise have been liable in the absence of such delegation.

26.8 Confidentiality

The Operative Documents and all non-public information obtained by either party about the other are confidential and are between Lessor and Lessee only and will not be disclosed by a party to third parties (other than to such party’s auditors or legal or financial advisors; as required in connection with any filings of this Lease in accordance with Article 13; in connection with Lessor’s potential sale of the Aircraft or assignment of this Lease, provided the potential purchasers shall have agreed to hold any such information confidential; as required for enforcement by either party of its rights and remedies with respect to this Lease or as required by applicable Law) without the prior written consent of the other party. If any disclosure will result in an Operative Document becoming publicly available, Lessee and Lessor will cooperate with one another to obtain confidential treatment as to the commercial terms and other material provisions of such Operative Document. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessor may use true copies of Lessee’s logo and pictures of the Aircraft painted in Lessee’s livery in Lessor’s marketing materials.

26.9 Rights of Parties

The rights of the parties hereunder are cumulative, not exclusive, may be exercised as often as each party considers appropriate and are in addition to its rights under general Law. The rights of one party against the other party are not capable of being waived or amended except by an express waiver or amendment in writing. Any failure to exercise or any delay in exercising any of such rights will not operate as a waiver or amendment of that or any other such right. Any defective or partial exercise of any such rights will not preclude any other or further exercise of that or any other such right and no act or course of conduct or negotiation on a party’s part or on its behalf will in any way preclude such party from exercising any such right or constitute a suspension or any amendment of any such right.

113(138)

26.10 Further Assurances

Lessee agrees and undertakes at its own expense from time to time to do and perform such other and further acts and execute and deliver any and all such other instruments consistent with the business, economic, commercial and other agreements of the parties as expressed herein as may be required by Law or requested by Lessor to establish, maintain or protect the rights and remedies of Lessor or to carry out and effect the intent and purpose of this Lease and any other document relating to the transactions contemplated herein.

114(138)

26.14 Invalidity of Any Provision or Illegality

FORM OF LEGAL OPINION

SEE FOLLOWING PAGES

138(138)

Exh K Legal Opinion Eng

[    ] March 2007

[INBURSA]

Dear Sirs,

This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to Section [ ] of the Aircraft Lease Agreement dated as of 26 March 2007 (the “Lease”) between Concesionaria Vuela, Compañia de Aviacion, S.A. de C.V. (the “Lessee”) and Arrendadora Financiera Inbursa, S.A. de C.V. Sociedad Financiera de Objeto Multiple, Entidad Regulada, Grupo Financiero Inbursa, (the “Lessor”). Defined terms in this opinion are used herein as defined in the Lease.

We have acted as counsel to Lessee, and have acted in such capacity in connection with the negotiation, preparation, authorization, execution and delivery of, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Lease. Unless otherwise specified, all capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Lease.

Based upon the foregoing, we are of the following opinion:

1. Lessee is a stock corporation of variable capital (sociedad anónima de capital variable) duly formed and validly existing under the General Law of Commercial Partnerships (Ley General de Sociedades Mercantiles) of Mexico for an indefinite period, subject to suit in its own name, and is an air carrier of persons in scheduled air transportation and is registered, licensed or otherwise authorized by the government of Mexico to engage in such activities.

2. Lessee is validity existing as a corporation under the laws of the United Mexican States and has full corporate power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under the Lease.

3. None of the execution and delivery of the Lease, the performance by Lessee of its obligations thereunder and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby will conflict or result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, any applicable law, rule or regulation of the United Mexican States or any judgment or order applicable to Lessee, Lessee’s Charter documents (Escritura Constitutiva) or any agreement, mortgage, or other instrument to which Lessee is party or by which it or its assets may be bound.

4. The execution, delivery and performance by Lessee of the Lease have been approved by Lessee’s Board of Directors on [            ].

5. Ownership of the Aircraft by Owner as Lessor, as defined in the Lease, cannot be charged, set aside, avoided or otherwise challenged by any person claiming interest (whether proprietary, possessory or by way of security) in the Aircraft on the grounds of or in connection any labor process or in connection with the insolvency, concurso mercantil, bankruptcy or liquidation of Lessee.

1

Exh K Legal Opinion Eng

6. The constitution of Mexico guarantees the protection of property from expropriation or requisition without fair compensation. The Aircraft may, however, be detained pursuant to court proceedings, which could be dismissed through the demonstration of title in accordance with the appropriate proceedings in each case.

7. The Lease and the other Operative Documents have been duly executed and delivered by Lessee and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of Lessee enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable concurso mercantil, bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally. In addition, the validity or enforceability of certain of the remedies provided for in the Lease may be limited by applicable law or judicially adopted principles which, in our judgment, do not make such remedies (taken as a whole) inadequate for the practical realization of the benefits afforded thereby.

8. All authorizations and approvals of any Mexican federal, state or municipal governmental department or agency required or necessary to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by Lessee of the Lease or other Operative Documents, with respect to Lessee, for the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability thereof have been obtained and are in full force and effect.

9. Except for the registration of the Lease in the Registro Aeronáutico Mexicano (the “Registry”) and for the payment of registration duties described below, no filing or recording of any instrument or document (including the filing or any financial statement) is necessary of the United Mexican States in order for the Lease to constitute a valid and perfected lease of record relating to the Aircraft.

10. The payment obligations of Lessee under the Lease rank at least equally and ratably (pari passu) in point of priority and security with all other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of Lessee.

11. Application has been made with the Dirección General de Aeronáutica Civil, Secretaría de Comunicaciones y Transportes of the United Mexican States (the “DGAC”) for registration in the Registry of the interest of Lessor as “Owner” and Lessor in the Aircraft and no other steps are necessary to (i) record or perfect Lessor’s interest in the Aircraft in the United Mexican States or (ii) to fully establish and protect Lessor’s title to, in and property rights with respect to the Aircraft, as against Lessee or any third party claiming through Lessee or otherwise and to ensure that the rights of Lessor therein will have priority in all respects over the claims of Lessee’s creditors.

12. Upon termination of the Aircraft Lease (whether on expiry or otherwise), as contemplated in the Lease, the applicable Lessor shall be entitled:

(1) to repossess the Aircraft, subject to applicable law;

2

Exh K Legal Opinion Eng

(2) to deregister the Aircraft; from the Registry of the DGAC after termination of the Lease, as provided by applicable law; and

(3) to remove the Aircraft from the operating certificate of Lessee and export the Aircraft from the United Mexican States.

After termination of the Lease due to the occurrence of an Event of Default or for any other reason as contemplated in the Lease, no consents, approvals or licenses are required to Lessor repossess the Aircraft from Lessee.

13. Except for the duties paid to the Registry for the registration of the Lease and as set forth in paragraph 19 below, there are no registration, stamps or other taxes or duties of any kind payable in the United Mexican States in connection with the signature, performance or enforcement by legal proceedings of the Lease.

14. Lessor will not become liable for any Tax in the United Mexican States other than tax on its income solely by reason of entering into the Lease with Lessee, or performing its obligations thereunder, provided that rental payments shall be subject to 15% Value Added Tax payable by Lessee, no withholding tax is applicable pursuant to rental payments. With respect to any withholdings, the indemnification and taxation provisions of the Lease are fully effective and enforceable in accordance with their terms.

15. There is no litigation, proceeding or government investigation pending or overtly threatened against the Lessee which, if adversely determined, would have a material adverse effect on the business, assets or financial condition of the Lessee.

16. The choice of the laws of the United Mexican States to govern the Lease is valid under the laws of Mexico, and a Mexican court would uphold such choice of law.

17. Lessee is subject to private commercial law and suit.

I express no opinion as to any laws other than the laws of the United Mexican States.

Very Truly yours,

[VOLARIS]
