has not been delivered by Lessor due to Lessee's breach of its
obligations hereunder or under the Tripartite Agreement, Lessor may
retain the Deposit. Otherwise, Lessor shall return the Deposit to
Lessee.
3.4 The term of the lease shall commence on the Delivery Date and shall
continue until the Expiry Date unless earlier terminated or extended
as herein provided (such period being herein referred to as the
"Term").
3.5 The Aircraft shall be delivered to and accepted by Lessee at the
Delivery Location or such other location as is mutually acceptable
to the parties.
3.6 Simultaneously with Lessee's technical acceptance of the Aircraft
from Transwede under the Tripartite Agreement, Lessee shall indicate
and confirm its acceptance of the Aircraft by the execution and
delivery to Lessor of the Certificate of Acceptance.
4. REGISTRATION AND TITLE
4.1 As from the Delivery Date Lessee shall cooperate with Lessor or Head
Lessor, to effect and maintain registration of the Aircraft in the
name of Lessor or Head Lessor, as the case may be, under the Laws of
the State of Registration during the Term, such registration to
reflect the interests of Lessor or Head Lessor as the case may be,
and to obtain and maintain all licenses, permits and approvals,
including, without limitation, a certificate of airworthiness from
the Air Authority, as may be requisite in connection with operation
of the Aircraft under this Agreement.
4.2 Lessee shall at its own expense and responsibility cause this
Agreement to be kept, filed and recorded at all times during the
Term, in such office or offices for the registration of the Aircraft
in the State of Registration and in such other offices (in the
United States but not in any jurisdiction outside of the United
States unless directly required due to Lessee's operation) as may be
necessary, to protect Lessor's,
16
Head Lessor's and the Bank's rights in any state in which the
Aircraft may operate including the State of Registration of the
Aircraft and the State of Incorporation or as Lessor may reasonably
request to protect and preserve Lessor's, Head Lessor's and the
Bank's rights hereunder, and shall on request furnish to Lessor an
opinion of counsel or other evidence satisfactory to Lessor of such
filing and recording.
4.3 Title to and ownership of the Aircraft as between Lessor, Head
Lessor and Lessee shall at all times remain in Lessor or Head
Lessor, as the case may be, and Lessee shall have no right, title or
interest in or to the Aircraft or any part thereof except as
expressly provided by this Agreement. Lessee shall identify and
specify the interest of Lessor, Head Lessor and the Bank and shall
affix or keep affixed (i) in a reasonably prominent position on the
flight-deck of the Aircraft and on each Engine a metal name plate
(having dimensions of not less than 10 cm x 7 cm) bearing the
inscription (in fireproof and legible characters) stating:
"NOTICE OF OWNERSHIP
THIS AIRCRAFT/ENGINE IS OWNED BY
FIRST SECURITY BANK OF UTAH, N.A."
The proper completion of the metal name plate shall be advised by
Lessor at its earliest convenience. Lessee shall not remove or
deface evidence of ownership of the Aircraft and shall not do or
permit to be done or omitted any act or thing which would jeopardize
the rights of Lessor, Head Lessor or the Bank in the Aircraft.
Lessee will on all occasions when the ownership of the Aircraft or
any Part is relevant make clear to third parties that title to the
same is held by Lessor, Head Lessor or the Bank as the case may be.
4.4 Lessee acknowledges that the Aircraft may from time to time be owned
by Head Lessor or the Bank and/or be subject to the Mortgage, which
shall be a first priority mortgage, and to the Security Assignment,
in favor of Head Lessor or the Bank. Lessee undertakes to Lessor
(both for itself and as agent for each of Head Lessor and the Bank)
at Lessee's expense (except for the expense of assignments pursuant
to Article 12 after the first refinancing and first assignment
described therein) to, from time to time, cooperate with Lessor or
Head Lessor to cause this Agreement, the Mortgage, the Security
Assignment and such other documents as may
17
be necessary or advisable to give effect to the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby, to be kept, recorded or filed in
such office or offices in the State of Incorporation and in the
State of Registration as may be necessary or advisable to protect
and perfect the interests of Lessor, Head Lessor and the Bank in the
Aircraft, this Agreement, the Mortgage and the Security Assignment,
and to do, from time to time, all other things which the Bank, Head
Lessor and/or Lessor may reasonably require in order to protect and
perfect their rights.
5. POSSESSION AND USE
5.1 Lessee shall not transfer possession of the Aircraft, the Engines or
any Part to any person or any legal entity or remove any Engine or
Part from the Airframe other than in accordance with the provisions
of this Article 5 or of Article 12.1; provided, however, that so
long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Lessee
may, without the prior written consent of Lessor deliver possession
of the Aircraft, the Engines or Parts to the manufacturer thereof
for testing or other similar purposes, or to an Authorized
Maintenance Performer for service, repair, maintenance or overhaul
work on the Aircraft, the Engines or Parts, or for alterations,
modifications, or additions thereto, to the extent required or
permitted by the terms of Article 7.3.
5.1.1 Lessee will ensure that no Engine or Part installed on the Aircraft
is at any time removed from the Aircraft other than:
(a) if replaced as expressly permitted by this Agreement; or
(b) if the removal is of an obsolete item and is in accordance
with the Approved Maintenance Program; or
(c) (i) during the course of maintaining, servicing, repairing,
overhauling or testing that Engine or Part or the
Aircraft, as the case may be; or
(ii) as part of a normal engine or part rotation program; or
18
(iii) for the purpose of making such modification to the
Engine or Part, or the Aircraft, as the case may be, as
are permitted under this Agreement,
and then in each case only if it is reinstalled or replaced by an
engine or part complying with Article 5.1.2(a) as soon as
practicable (or in the case of Article 5.1.1(c)(ii) in the ordinary
course of such program) and in any event no later than the Expiry
Date.
5.1.2 (a) Lessee will ensure that, except as permitted by this
Agreement, no engine or part is installed on the Aircraft
unless:
(i) in the case of an engine, it is an engine of the same
model as, or an improved or advanced version of the
Engine it replaces, which is in similar or better
operating condition, and in the case only of a Casualty
Occurrence, has substantially similar hours available
until the next scheduled checks, inspections, overhauls
and shop visits and has the same or greater value and
utility as the replaced Engine;
(ii) in the case of a part, it is in as good operating
condition, is of similar or a more advanced make and
model and is of the same interchangeable modification
status as the replaced Part;
(iii) in the case of any part, it has become and remains the
property of Lessor free from Security Interests and on
installation on the Aircraft will without further act be
subject to this Agreement and the Mortgage; and
(iv) in each case, Lessee has full details as to its source
and maintenance records.
(b) Provided no Default has occurred and is continuing, Lessee
shall be entitled to install any engine or part on the
Aircraft by way of replacement notwithstanding Article
5.1.2(a) if:
(i) there is not available to Lessee at the time and in the
place that engine or part is required to be installed on
the Aircraft, a replacement engine or, as the case may
be, part complying with the requirements of Article
5.1.2(a); and
19
(ii) it would result in an unreasonable disruption of the
operation of the Aircraft and/or the business of Lessee
to ground the Aircraft until an engine or part, as the
case may be, complying with Article 5.1.2(a) becomes
available for installation on the Aircraft; and
(iii) as soon as reasonably practicable after installation of
the same on the Aircraft, Lessee removes any such engine
or part and replaces it with the Engine or Part replaced
by it or by an engine or part, as the case may be,
complying with Article 5.1.2(a).
5.1.3 Lessee will:
(a) ensure that any Engine or Part which is not installed on the
Aircraft (or any other aircraft as permitted by this
Agreement) is, except as expressly permitted by this
Agreement, properly and safely stored, and kept free from
Security Interests;
(b) from time to time on request, notify Lessor in writing as to
the location of any Engine and on request shall use its
reasonable efforts to procure that any person to whom
possession of an Engine is given acknowledges in writing to
Lessor, in terms satisfactory to Lessor, that it will respect
the interest of the Bank as mortgagee and Lessor (or, as the
case may be, Head Lessor) as owner and lessor of the Engine
and will not seek to exercise any rights whatsoever in
relation to it;
(c) (notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article
5.1.3), be permitted, if no Default has occurred and is
continuing, to install any Engine or Part on an aircraft, or
in the case of a Part, on an engine:
(i) owned and operated by Lessee free from Security
Interests; or
(ii) leased or hired to Lessee pursuant to a lease or
conditional sale agreement on a long-term basis and on
terms whereby Lessee has full operational control of
that aircraft or engine; or
20
(iii) acquired by Lessee and/or financed or refinanced, and
operated by Lessee, on terms that ownership of that
aircraft or engine, as the case may be, pursuant to a
lease or conditional sale agreement, or a Security
Interest therein, is vested in or held by any other
person; provided that in the case of (ii) and (iii):
(1) the terms of any such lease, conditional sale agreement or
Security Interest will not have the effect of prejudicing the
interests of the Bank as mortgagee or Lessor (or, as the case
may be, Head Lessor) as owner and lessor of that Engine or
Part; and
(2) the lessor under such lease, the seller under such conditional
sale agreement or the holder of such Security Interest, as the
case may be, has confirmed and acknowledged in writing to
Lessor, in form and substance satisfactory to Lessor, or has
otherwise agreed in writing that it will respect the interest
of Lessor (or, as the case may be, Head Lessor) or, generally
(without naming such parties) the owner and/or lessor as owner
and lessor and the Bank, or generally (without naming the
Bank) any mortgagee as mortgagee of that Engine or Part and
that it will not seek to exercise any rights whatsoever in
relation thereto; and, to the extent such an acknowledgment
has been given, Lessor hereby agrees, for the benefit of the
lessor, the seller, or secured party, as the case may be, of
any engine or part (other than an Engine or a Part) leased to
Lessee or owned by Lessee subject to a conditional sale or
other security agreement, that Lessor will not acquire or
claim, as against such lessor, seller or secured party, any
right, title or interest in any engine or engines owned by the
lessor under such lease or subject to a security interest in
favor of the seller or secured party under such conditional
sale or other security agreement as the result of such engine
or engines being installed on the Airframe at any time while
such engine or engines are subject to such lease or
conditional sale or other security agreement.
5.1.4 Lessee will not enter into nor permit any pooling agreement or
arrangement in respect of an Engine or Part without the prior
written consent of Lessor, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.
21
5.2 Lessee shall use the Aircraft solely in commercial or other
operations for which Lessee is duly authorized by the Laws of the
State of Registration and/or any jurisdiction to whose Laws Lessee's
operation of the Aircraft is subject and shall not use or permit the
Aircraft to be used for any purpose for which the Aircraft is not
designed or reasonably suitable.
Lessee shall not use the Aircraft for the carriage of (i) whole
animals living or dead except in the cargo compartments according to
the United States Department of Transportation ("DOT") (or for
international flights, International Civil Aviation Organization
("ICAO")) regulations, and except domestic pet animals carried in a
suitable container to prevent the escape of any liquid and to ensure
the welfare of the animal; (ii) acids, toxic chemicals, other
corrosive materials, explosives, nuclear fuels, wastes, or any
nuclear assemblies or components, except as permitted for passenger
aircraft under the "Restriction of Goods" schedule issued by the DOT
(or for international flights, ICAO) from time to time and provided
that all the requirements for packaging or otherwise contained
therein are fulfilled; or (iii) any other goods, materials or items
of cargo which could reasonably be expected to cause damage to the
Aircraft and which would not be adequately covered by the insurance
required by or obtained pursuant to Article 11.
5.3 Lessee shall not permit the Aircraft to be maintained, used, or
operated in violation of any Law of any Government Entity having
jurisdiction, or contrary to any manufacturer's operating manuals
and instructions, or in violation of any airworthiness certificate,
license or registration relating to the Aircraft issued by any such
Government Entity. In the event that such Laws require alteration of
the Aircraft during the Term, Lessee shall conform therewith at its
own expense and shall maintain the same in proper condition for
operation under such Laws. Lessee agrees not to operate the Aircraft
or to permit or suffer the Aircraft to be operated (i) contrary to
applicable Law, and/or (ii) within or into any geographic area
unless the Aircraft is covered by insurance as required by the
provisions of Article 11 or insurance or an indemnity in lieu of
such insurance from the United States government against the risks
and in the amounts required by Article 11 covering such area, and/or
(iii) contrary to the terms of such insurance as required by the
provisions of Article 11.
22
5.4 Throughout the Term and until re-delivery of the Aircraft to Lessor
in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Aircraft
and every part thereof shall be in every respect at the sole risk of
Lessee, who shall bear all risks of loss, theft, damage or
destruction to the Aircraft from any cause whatsoever. Lessor shall
not be liable for any liability, claim, loss, damage or expense of
any kind or nature caused directly or indirectly by the Aircraft or
any part thereof by any inadequacy thereof for any purpose or any
deficiency or defect therein, by the use or performance thereof, by
any repairs or servicing thereto or any delay in providing or
failure to provide any thereof, by any interruption or loss of
service or use thereof, or by any loss of business or other
consequential damage or any damage whatsoever and howsoever caused
prior to re-delivery of the Aircraft to Lessor.
5.5 Lessee shall ensure that such crew and engineers as are employed by
it in connection with the operation and maintenance of the Aircraft
shall have such qualifications and hold such licenses as are
required by the Air Authority and by all applicable Laws and
regulations.
6. CHARGES, METHOD OF PAYMENT AND FINANCIAL INFORMATION
6.1 Lessee shall punctually pay to Lessor, when due, the Rent, Reserve
Rate and Supplemental Rent expressed to be payable by the Lessee to
the Lessor hereunder including the monies specified and calculated
in accordance with the provisions of Appendix D at the time and in
the manner therein specified, and shall punctually and duly observe
and perform Lessee's obligations under the said Appendix D which
forms an integral part of this Agreement. The time stipulated in
this Agreement for all payments payable by Lessee to Lessor and for
the performance of Lessee's other obligations under this Agreement
shall be of the essence of this Agreement.
6.2 Lessee shall not be entitled to any abatement, compensation,
reduction or set-off against any installment of Rent, the Reserve
Rate or Supplemental Rent, including but not limited to, abatements,
compensations, reductions or set offs, by reason of any past,
present or future claims of Lessee against Lessor or any other
person under this Agreement or otherwise.
23
6.3 Lessee's obligation to pay Rent and make other payments in
accordance with this Agreement, until Lessee shall have redelivered
the Aircraft to Lessor in accordance with Article 16 and shall have
complied with its other obligations hereunder, shall be absolute and
unconditional irrespective of any contingency whatsoever including
(but not limited to) (i) any right of set-off, counterclaim,
recoupment, defense or other right which either party may have
against the other, (ii) any unavailability of the Aircraft for any
reason, including, but not limited to, any defect in the
airworthiness, merchantability, fitness for any purpose, condition,
design, or operation of any kind or nature of the Aircraft, or the
ineligibility of the Aircraft for any particular use or trade, or
for registration or documentation under the laws of any relevant
jurisdiction, or (save as herein provided) any Casualty Occurrence
in respect of or any damage to the Aircraft, (iii) any insolvency,
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt,
dissolution, liquidation or similar proceedings by or against Lessor
or Lessee, (iv) any invalidity or unenforceability or lack of due
authorization of, or other defect in this Agreement, (v) any failure
of Lessee to obtain any required license, certificate, authorization
or other approval of any Governmental Entity having jurisdiction
over the operation by Lessee of the Aircraft or the operation by
Lessee in any airport and (vi) any other cause which, but for this
provision, would or might have the effect of terminating,
frustrating or in any way affecting any obligation of Lessee
hereunder, it being the declared intention of the parties that the
provisions of this Article and the obligations of Lessee to pay the
Rent, the Reserve Rate and Supplemental Rent provided for by this
Agreement shall survive any frustration and that, save as expressly
provided in this Agreement, no monies payable hereunder by Lessee to
Lessor shall in any event or circumstance be repayable to Lessee.
6.4 Lessee agrees to furnish Lessor during the Term:
(i) Intentionally omitted;
(ii) upon Lessor requesting the same a quarterly unaudited balance
sheet of Lessee prepared by it as of the close of the most
recent previous financial quarter, together with the related
profit and loss statement for such period;
(iii) within ninety (90) days after the close of each financial year
of Lessee, an audited balance sheet and profit and loss
statement as of the close of such financial year;
24
(iv) from time to time such other non-confidential information as
Lessor may reasonably request; and
(v) copies of all notices sent by Lessee (A) to its shareholders
or creditors as a group in their respective capacities as such
relating to major business or financial developments of Lessee
or (B) to the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection
with or following a public offering of the equity shares of
Lessee.
7. MAINTENANCE
7.1 Lessee, during the Term, at its own cost and expense shall:
(a) service, repair, maintain, overhaul, test, or cause the same
to be done to the Aircraft in accordance with the Approved
Maintenance Program so as to keep the Aircraft in as good
operating condition as when delivered to Lessee on the
Delivery Date, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and such
operating condition as may be necessary to enable the
airworthiness certificate of the Aircraft to be maintained in
good standing at all times under applicable Law, and Lessee
shall at all times maintain current certificates of
airworthiness (except in each case if Fokker 100 aircraft with
similar engines are grounded by the Air authority other than
as a result of the acts and omissions of Lessee) and Air
Authority required records of maintenance in respect of the
Aircraft and produce copies thereof to Lessor upon request;
(b) maintain in the English language all Aircraft Documents,
records, logs, and other materials required by applicable Laws
and best airline practice to be maintained in respect of the
Aircraft including engine trend monitoring data;
(c) perform, or cause to be performed, all airworthiness
directives and mandatory notes and mandatory bulletins
affecting the Aircraft having a compliance date during the
Term and issued by (a) the Air Authority and/or (b) Fokker or
any other manufacturer of any part of the Aircraft (except
that, in the event of a conflict, those required by the Air
Authority shall prevail);
25
(d) maintain the Aircraft in conformity with Air Authority
Regulations and such other rules and regulations of the Air
Authority as may from time to time be applicable to passenger
category airline aircraft;
(e) provide Lessor by telex or fax message with a monthly
summation (which may utilize Air Authority forms) of Flight
Hours and Cycles accumulated on the Airframe, Engines, A.P.U.
and Landing Gear and details of all modifications and material
component changes within five (5) days after the end of each
month.
Such maintenance shall be performed by Lessee or by an Authorized
Maintenance Performer.
7.2 Except as otherwise provided herein, Lessee, at its own cost and
expense, shall promptly replace all Engines or Parts which may from
time to time become worn out, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized,
confiscated, damaged beyond repair, or unserviceable with an engine
or part meeting the requirements of Article 5.1.2(a).
7.3 (a) Save as expressly herein provided the Aircraft shall not be
modified, altered, converted or added to (each such action in
relation to the Aircraft being herein referred to as an
"Equipment Change"), provided that Lessee may, at its own
expense and subject to the prior written approval of Lessor
(such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), make such
Equipment Changes to the Aircraft as Lessee may deem desirable
in the proper conduct of its business, provided that no such
Equipment Change diminishes the value, utility, condition or
airworthiness of the Aircraft below the value, utility,
condition and airworthiness thereof immediately prior to such
Equipment Change, assuming the Aircraft was then in the
condition required to be maintained by the provisions of this
Agreement.
(b) Title to all Parts incorporated or installed in or attached or
added to the Aircraft as the result of such Equipment Change
shall, without further act, vest in Lessor free and clear of
all liens, charges and encumbrances. Lessee shall at its own
expense take all such steps and execute, and procure the
execution of, all such instruments as Lessor may require and
which are necessary to ensure that title to any such
replacement Part as aforesaid passes to Lessor according to
the Governing Law and the lex situs, provided, however, that
so long as a Default shall not have
26
occurred and be continuing, at any time during the Term,
Lessee may remove any such Part if (A) (i) such Part is in
addition to, and not in replacement of or in substitution for,
any Part originally incorporated or installed in or attached
to the Aircraft at the time of the delivery thereof hereunder,
(ii) such Part is not required to be incorporated or installed
in or attached or added to the Aircraft pursuant to the
provisions of Article 7.1 and (iii) such Part can be removed
from the Aircraft without diminishing or impairing the value,
utility or airworthiness which the Aircraft would have had at
such time, had such Equipment Change not occurred. Or (B) such
Part is deemed by Lessee to be obsolete or no longer suitable
or appropriate for use in the Airframe or Engines (an
"Obsolete Part") and its removal shall not materially decrease
the value or adversely affect the utility or remaining useful
life of the Airframe or Engines, or impair the condition or
airworthiness thereof below the value, utility or remaining
useful life, condition or airworthiness thereof immediately
prior to such removal (assuming the Aircraft was then in the
condition required to be maintained by the terms of the
Lease), except that the value (but not the utility, remaining
useful life, condition or airworthiness) of the Airframe or
the Engines may be reduced, to the extent resulting from the
removal of Obsolete Parts, if the aggregate original cost of
all Obsolete Parts removed from such Aircraft and not replaced
shall not exceed $70,000.
(c) Upon the removal by Lessee of any such Part as above provided,
title thereto shall, without further act, vest in Lessee and
such Part shall no longer be deemed a part of the Aircraft.
Any Part not removed by Lessee as above provided prior to the
return of the Aircraft to Lessor hereunder shall remain the
property of Lessor (save as the parties may otherwise agree in
writing) provided that Lessor may require Lessee, prior to the
end of the Term, to remove any Parts incorporated or installed
in the Aircraft as a result of an Equipment Change and to
restore the Aircraft to its condition prior to an Equipment
Change.
7.4.1 Upon submission by Lessee to Lessor of invoices or receipts
reasonably satisfactory to Lessor evidencing the performance in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement by or at the
direction of Lessee of:
27
(a) with respect to the Airframe, the accomplishment of those
items of maintenance characterized as scheduled airframe heavy
maintenance as defined in the Approved Maintenance Program for
12,000 hours and 24,000 hours inspections or any equivalent
thereof with more or less hours ("Airframe Maintenance"), or
(b) with respect to any Engine, the performance of all scheduled
shop visit engine maintenance and repair, other than (i)
repairs arising as a result of foreign object damage or
operational mishandling and/or (ii) maintenance and repair of
QEC (Quick Engine Change) kits ("Engine Maintenance"), or
(c) with respect to any nose or main landing gear ("Landing
Gear"), the performance of all scheduled shop visit nose and
main landing gear maintenance and repair, other than repairs
arising as a result of foreign object damage or operational
mishandling ("Landing Gear Maintenance"),
Lessor shall, subject to Article 3.6 of Appendix D and provided that
a Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, release to
Lessee, from the relevant Maintenance Fund as defined in paragraph
3.2 of Appendix D, a sum equal to the aggregate amount evidenced by
such invoices or receipts for such relevant maintenance, to the
extent there are sufficient sums in the relevant Maintenance Fund at
the date of the start of the relevant maintenance. Lessee agrees to
use its reasonable efforts to ensure that the relevant invoices or
receipts are received by Lessor as promptly as possible after
completion of the relevant maintenance. All sums remaining in any
Maintenance Fund at the expiration or other termination of this
Agreement shall be retained by Lessor, except (i) upon payment in
full of Agreed Value and any other amounts due to Lessor or
otherwise hereunder after a Casualty Occurrence pursuant to Article
17.2(b), in which case all sums remaining in any Maintenance Fund
shall be paid to Lessee and (ii) under the circumstances and to the
extent described in Article 3.6 or 9 of Appendix D.
For the avoidance of doubt, Lessor shall not refuse to release
monies from the Maintenance Fund on the ground that maintenance was
required due to operational mishandling, provided that Lessee can
demonstrate that Lessee complied with the original equipment
manufacturer's written instructions.
28
7.4.2 Lessor shall be entitled to delay the release or payment of funds
from any Maintenance Fund (to the extent related to any disputed
amounts) to Lessee provided for by this Article 7 until such time as
it shall in its opinion be in a position to determine (which Lessor
agrees to use reasonable efforts to do as promptly as possible) the
amount to be released or paid, but in any event release all
undisputed amounts from the relevant Maintenance Fund (but where
insufficient funds are in such maintenance Fund the lesser pro rata
portion of such funds which corresponds to the undisputed amount)
upon request unless a Default shall have occurred and be continuing.
7.5.1 During the Term, Lessee shall furnish to Lessor such information
concerning the location, condition, use and operation of the
Aircraft as Lessor may reasonably request. The right of Lessor, or
its designated representatives, to inspect the Aircraft during any
Major Checks performed by or on behalf of Lessee during the Term,
shall be absolute and Lessee shall inform Lessor by providing sixty
(60) days' written notice as to time and location of all Major
Checks. During such Major Checks, Lessee agrees to provide
sufficient manpower to allow Lessor, or its authorized
representatives, to inspect any area of the Aircraft which Lessor
requests to inspect and which would normally be required during such
a Major Check, provided that such inspection is to be made only at
the time that Lessee opens up such area in accordance with the
Approved Maintenance Program.
Lessee also shall permit any persons designated by Lessor to visit
and inspect the Aircraft, its condition, use and operation, and the
records maintained in connection therewith.
7.5.2 Lessor shall have the right at any time on reasonable notice to
inspect or survey the Aircraft or any part thereof, or instruct a
duly authorized surveyor to carry out a survey on its behalf, to
ascertain the condition of the Aircraft or any part thereof and
satisfy itself that the Aircraft is being properly repaired and
maintained in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The cost
of any such inspection or survey shall be borne by Lessor unless an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
29
7.5.3 Lessor shall have no duty to make any such inspection as is referred
to in Article 7.5.1 and 7.5.2 and shall not incur any liability or
obligation by reason of not making any such inspection. Except in
connection with any Event of Default, no exercise of any inspection
right under Articles 7.5.1, 7.5.2 or any other provision of this
Agreement shall interfere with the normal operation or maintenance
of the Aircraft or the business of Lessee and shall be conducted
during normal maintenance or business hours. In connection with any
such inspection, Lessee shall allow Lessor or any persons designated
by Lessor to copy, at Lessor's cost and expense, any Aircraft
Documents or other records relating to maintenance and operation of
the Aircraft. Lessee shall not be liable for the use of any such
Aircraft Documents or other records by Lessor or any other person or
entity which use is unrelated to Lessee's compliance with the terms
of this Agreement.
8. TAXES, DUTIES AND EXPENSES
8.1 Lessee agrees promptly to pay and indemnify and hold Lessor and Head
Lessor harmless against all Taxes (other than Lessor Taxes) levied
or imposed against or upon or otherwise payable by any Tax
Indemnitee or Lessee and relating to or attributable to Lessee, this
Agreement, the Aircraft and/or the importation, exportation,
registration, ownership, leasing, subleasing, delivery, possession,
use, operation, reregistration, repair, maintenance, overhaul,
replacement, improvement, modification, alteration, transportation,
landing, storage, presence or re-delivery of or addition to, the
Aircraft or any Engine or any Part thereof or any rent, receipts,
insurance proceeds or income arising therefrom, or any sum payable
by Lessee to a Tax Indemnitee under this Agreement or any other
transactions or activities contemplated by this Agreement. If Lessee
is required by any applicable Law or regulation to deliver or
furnish any report or return in connection with any such Taxes,
Lessee shall complete the same in a manner satisfactory to the
relevant Tax Indemnitee and in particular shall state therein that
Lessor or Head Lessor, as the case may be, is the owner of the
Aircraft and that the Lessee is exclusively responsible for the use
and operation of the Aircraft and for any such Taxes and Lessee
shall supply a copy of such report or return to the relevant Tax
Indemnitee.
All payments by Lessee hereunder to Lessor shall be free of
withholdings of any nature whatsoever (and at the time Lessee is
required to make any payment upon which any withholding is required,
Lessee shall pay an
30
additional amount such that the net amount actually received by the
Lessor will, after such withholding, equal the full amount of the
payment then due) and shall be free of expense for collection or
other charges.
If Lessee shall have paid any additional amount pursuant to the
first sentence of this paragraph with respect to Taxes not subject
to indemnification pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.1,
the Lessor for whose benefit such Taxes were paid shall reimburse
Lessee within 10 Business Days of written demand therefor for the
amount of such Taxes so paid by Lessee. For the purpose of Article
1.10 and Article 8, the terms, "Lessor" and "Head Lessor" shall
include each group of corporations (and each member thereof) that
includes Lessor or Head Lessor and for which consolidated, combined,
unitary or other group tax returns are filed.
8.2 Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, Lessee shall pay
to Lessor on or after Delivery Date (unless otherwise agreed to be
financed by Lessor or to be paid by Transwede pursuant to the
Tripartite Agreement) upon demand:
(a) all reasonable expenses paid to third parties (including
legal, printing and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred or
payable by Lessor (i) in connection with the negotiation,
preparation and execution of this Agreement and all related
documents, including reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in
connection with this Agreement and (ii) related to any
amendment to or extension of, or the granting of any waiver or
consent under, this Agreement, resulting from the first
refinancing of the Aircraft by the Bank or from a request of
Lessee; but in the case of such a refinancing, Lessee shall
not be liable for the payment of any legal fees (other than
those of its own counsel or those of Lessor's special Air
Authority counsel incurred in connection with the filing of
certain documents with the Air Authority or the issuance of an
opinion with respect thereto) or any loan or loan brokerage
fees;
(b) all reasonable expenses paid to third parties (including legal
fees and disbursements but excluding surveyor costs) payable
or incurred by Lessor in connection with, the enforcement of
or preservation of any rights of Lessor under this Agreement
or otherwise in respect of moneys owing under this Agreement
by Lessee or in respect of any breach of Lessee of any
representation,
31
warranty, covenant or undertaking herein contained; and
(c) the ongoing annual fees and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
related to this Agreement of the Owner Trustee, the Voting
Trustee and any trustee on behalf of the Bank (other than
those incurred pursuant to a change in any of such trustees
which was not requested by Lessee);
8.3 Lessee shall pay all stamp, documentary, registration or other like
duties or taxes (including any such duties or taxes payable by a Tax
Indemnitee but excluding all Lessor Taxes) imposed on or in
connection with this Agreement and shall indemnify that Tax
Indemnitee against any liability arising by reason of any delay or
omission by Lessee to pay such duties or taxes.
8.4 If and to the extent that any sum (the "indemnity sum") constituting
(directly or indirectly) an indemnity to one or more Tax Indemnitees
paid by Lessee to any person other than that Tax Indemnitee shall be
treated as taxable in the hands of the relevant Tax Indemnitee,
Lessee shall pay to the relevant Tax Indemnitee a sum as (after
taking into account any taxation suffered by the relevant Tax
Indemnitee on the indemnity sum) shall reimburse the relevant Tax
Indemnitee for the net amount of any Taxes suffered by them in
respect of the indemnity sum (after taking into account any current
tax savings or other benefits to the relevant Tax Indemnitee
resulting from the payment or accrual of the indemnified expense).
8.5 If and to the extent that any sums payable to a Tax Indemnitee by
Lessee under this Agreement by way of indemnity are insufficient, by
reason of any Taxes payable in respect of those sums, for that Tax
Indemnitee to discharge the corresponding liability to the relevant
third party (including any taxation authority), or to reimburse that
Tax Indemnitee for the cost incurred by it to a third party
(including any taxation authority), Lessee will pay to that Tax
Indemnitee such sum as will after the tax liability has been fully
satisfied leave that Tax Indemnitee with the same net amount (after
taking into account any current tax savings or other benefits to the
that Tax Indemnitee resulting from the payment or accrual of the
indemnified expense) as it would have been entitled to receive in
the absence of that liability. For the purpose of computing the
amount of an indemnity payment pursuant to this Article 8.5 and the
amount of any payment to Lessee under Article 8, it shall be assumed
that the relevant Tax Indemnitee is subject to tax on
32
the amount of each indemnity it receives or accrues under this
Agreement and can use any tax savings to offset Taxes at the highest
marginal statutory rates of tax applicable to that Tax Indemnitee
(as certified to Lessee by an officer of that Tax Indemnitee) at the
time such indemnity or tax savings is received or accrued.
8.6 If, as a result of any indemnity paid by Lessee or any event giving
rise to an indemnity obligation of Lessee, a Tax Indemnitee at any
time realizes any tax savings, refunds or other reductions in taxes
not previously taken into account in computing the amount of the
indemnity, that Tax Indemnitee shall promptly pay to the Lessee the
amount of such tax savings, refunds or other reductions in taxes;
provided, however, that no Tax Indemnitee will be required to make
any payment to Lessee pursuant to this Article 8.6 so long as a
Default shall be continuing or if Lessee shall not have theretofore
made all payments due to all Tax Indemnitees under this Agreement,
or to the extent that the amount of such payment would exceed the
amount of all prior payments by Lessee to the relevant Tax
Indemnitee pursuant to this Article 8 less the amount of all prior
payments by the relevant Tax Indemnitee to Lessee pursuant to this
Article 8.6. The relevant Tax Indemnitee shall estimate the amount
of such tax savings, refunds and other reductions in Taxes and shall
use reasonable efforts to take such actions in filing its tax
returns and in dealing with taxing authorities to seek and claim
each such tax savings, refund and other reduction in Taxes, but
shall not be obligated to take any such action that it determines in
its sole discretion to involve the imposition or risk of any
material unindemnified cost or expense, and in no event will any
person have any right to inspect the books, records, tax returns or
other documents of any Tax Indemnitee, and the positions to be taken
by any Tax Indemnitee on or with respect to its tax returns and in
any tax proceedings shall be within their sole control.
8.7 Lessee's, and each Tax Indemnitee's obligations under this Article 8
shall continue in full force and effect, notwithstanding the
expiration or earlier termination of the Term hereunder.
8.8 If Lessee disputes the payment of any Taxes payable by a Tax
Indemnitee for which Lessee is responsible under this Agreement,
that Tax Indemnitee will take such action as Lessee may reasonably
request at Lessee's expense to contest that payment but that Tax
Indemnitee will not be obliged to take any such action:
33
(a) which that Tax Indemnitee considers in good faith may result
in the imposition or risks of any material liability cost, or
expense for which that Tax Indemnitee is not indemnified to
its satisfaction; or
(b) which that Tax Indemnitee considers not to have a reasonable
prospect of success; or
(c) for which Lessee has not made adequate provision to the
satisfaction of that Tax Indemnitee in respect of the expense
concerned.
8.9 Lessor covenants and agrees to deliver to Lessee, (a) within 30 days
prior to January 1, 1996 and each January 1 falling every three
years thereafter (or at such other date as prescribed by United
States Treasury Regulations) as long as this Agreement has not been
terminated, two accurate and complete original copies of Internal
Revenue Service Form 1001 (or any successor form), dated the date
hereof or January 1, 1996 (or such subsequent January 1 or other
date) signed by Beneficiary, as appropriate, and such other related
forms (including any certificate with respect thereto) as Lessee may
reasonably request, or (b) within 30 days of the signing of this
Agreement (but in all events prior to the date of the first payment
of Rent to Lessor under this Agreement) and within 30 days prior to
the beginning of each taxable year of Lessor beginning subsequent to
the date of this Agreement (or at such other date as prescribed by
United States Treasury Regulations), two accurate and complete
original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form 4224 (or any
successor form), signed by Beneficiary, dated as appropriate, and
such other related forms (including any certificate with respect
thereto) as Lessee may reasonably request. In addition, Lessor shall
deliver to Lessee two accurate and complete original copies of Form
1001 or Form 4224 signed by Beneficiary, at any time that a change
in circumstances renders the previous form inaccurate in any
material respect. Nothing in this Article 8.9 shall be construed as
imposing on the Lessee any obligation whatsoever, including, without
limitation, to indemnify Lessor or any other party for U.S.
withholding taxes.
34
9. LIENS
9.1 Lessee, during the Term, shall not create or suffer to exist any
lien, attachment, mortgage or other encumbrance upon or against the
Aircraft, or any of its rights under this Agreement, other than the
Mortgage, the Security Assignment and Permitted Liens. If at any
time a lien, attachment, mortgage, or other encumbrance except as
permitted above shall be created or suffered to exist by Lessee, or
be levied upon the Aircraft or any of its rights under this
Agreement, Lessee shall forthwith notify Lessor and cause the same
forthwith to be discharged by bond or otherwise. In the event Lessee
shall fail to discharge any such lien, attachment, mortgage or other
encumbrance, Lessor, Head Lessor or the Bank shall be entitled (but
not bound) to discharge the same, in which event Lessee shall pay to
Lessor, on demand, the amount paid by Lessor and/or Head Lessor
and/or the Bank, together with Lessor's and/or Head Lessor's and/or
the Bank's losses, costs and expenses, including reasonable legal
fees and expenses.

POSSESSION, DELIVERY, PERFORMANCE, MANAGEMENT, OWNERSHIP,
REGISTRATION, CONTROL, MAINTENANCE, CONDITION, SERVICE,
REPAIR, OVERHAUL, LEASING, USE, OPERATION OR RETURN OF THE
AIRCRAFT, ANY ENGINE OR ANY PART, OR THE PERFORMANCE OR
NON-PERFORMANCE OF ANY AND/OR ALL OF THE INDEMNITEES OF
SERVICES OR DELIVERY OF ANY THINGS IN CONNECTION WITH THE
AIRCRAFT DURING THE TERM, OR OTHERWISE IN CONNECTION WITH THIS
AGREEMENT, WHETHER OR NOT ARISING IN TORT OR OCCASIONED IN
WHOLE OR IN PART BY THE FAULT OR NEGLIGENCE OF ANY AND/OR ALL
OF THE INDEMNITEES; OR
35
(B) AS A CONSEQUENCE OF ANY DESIGN, ARTICLE OR MATERIAL IN THE
AIRCRAFT, ANY ENGINE OR ANY PART OR ITS OPERATION OR USE
CONSTITUTING AN INFRINGEMENT OF PATENT (TO THE EXTENT AND
SCOPE AND SUBJECT TO THE LIMITATIONS SET FORTH IN PART C OF
EXHIBIT G OF THE SUPPORT SERVICES AGREEMENT), COPYRIGHT,
TRADEMARK, DESIGN OR OTHER PROPRIETARY RIGHT OR A BREACH BY
LESSEE OF ANY OBLIGATION OF CONFIDENTIALITY OWED TO ANY

BENEFICIARY AND/OR FOKKER UNDER THE TRIPARTITE AGREEMENT, OR
(II) THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF SUCH
INDEMNITEE, OR (III) FROM ANY MISREPRESENTATION BY SUCH
INDEMNITEE CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY BREACH BY SUCH
INDEMNITEE OF ANY COVENANT SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT.
10.2 The indemnities contained in this Article 10 shall continue in full
force and effect notwithstanding the expiration or other termination
of this Agreement or of the letting of the Aircraft hereunder.
10.3 The indemnities contained in this Article 10 are given to the Lessor
for itself and as agent and trustee on behalf of the other
Indemnitees
10.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Lessee
does not release and does not agree to defend, hold harmless or
indemnify under this Agreement (and without limiting any obligations
or indemnities contained in any other agreement with Lessee) Fokker
or any other Indemnitee in its capacity as manufacturer or seller of
the Aircraft from or against (i) claims of third parties made
directly against Fokker or such Indemnitee, based on its product
liability or its status as manufacturer or seller, or (ii) claims
made against Fokker or such Indemnitee based on the warranties or
indemnities contained in the Product Assurance Document which is

described in Article 10.1(B).

Lessee and supply such information as may reasonably be requested by
Lessee to enable Lessee to investigate, defend or contest any Claim,
liability or other matter
36
for which Lessee may be required to indemnify an Indemnitee
hereunder. In the event that Lessee pays any amount to an Indemnitee
pursuant to this Article 10, Lessee shall be subrogated to all
rights of the Indemnitee in respect of the Claim, liability or other
matter indemnified against giving rise to such payment. Lessee or
its insurers shall have the right, unless an Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing and such matter is not covered by
insurance, to investigate or (provided that Lessee or its insurers
shall agree not to dispute liability hereunder or under any
insurance policies pursuant to which coverage is sought and provided
that Lessee shall have consulted with Lessor prior thereto), defend
or compromise any Claim, and Lessor shall cooperate with Lessee with
respect thereto.

the benefit of creditors or that a receiver or liquidator or
assignee or trustee or state commissioner of insurance be

consented to by Lessor (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld), repair, or cause the same to be repaired by an Authorized
Maintenance Performer at its sole cost and expense. Except as
otherwise provided in Section 11.2(a)(ii), Lessor and Lessee agree
that all insurance proceeds payable in connection with any such
damage shall be payable directly to Lessor. In such event any
insurance proceeds received by Lessor shall be applied to reimburse
Lessee for such cost and expense. Any excess remaining shall, unless
a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, be paid over to
Lessee.

Lessee may wet lease the Aircraft whereby the term "wet lease" shall
mean an agreement whereby Lessee at all times retains operational
control of the cockpit and the Aircraft including all of its
maintenance.
12.2 This Agreement, the Aircraft and Lessor's interest in each thereof
is freely assignable and alienable by Lessor upon written notice to
Lessee in accordance with Article 12.3, provided, however, that so
long as the Aircraft shall be leased to Lessee under this Lease,
Lessor will not sell, assign, convey or otherwise transfer
absolutely (and not for security) any of its right, title, or
interest in and to this Agreement or the Aircraft to any person
unless Lessor and the proposed transferee (the "Transferee") have
complied with the following conditions:
(i) Lessor shall give Lessee written notice of such transfer
at least 3 Business Days before the date of such
transfer, specifying the name and address of the
proposed Transferee;
(ii) the Transferee shall not be an airline or a commercial
air carrier or person controlling, controlled by or
under common control with an airline or a commercial air
carrier which is in direct competition with Lessee in

States" within the meaning of Section 40102(a)(15) of
Title 49 of the United States Code by a Voting Trust
Agreement or otherwise; and
(iv) on the transfer date the Lessor and the Transferee shall
enter into an agreement or agreements in which the
Transferee confirms that it shall be deemed a party to
this Lease and agrees to be bound by all the terms of,
and to undertake all of the obligations of, the Lessor
contained in this Agreement and shall deliver a
certificate of quiet enjoyment to Lessee in a form and
substance reasonably acceptable to it and Lessee shall
receive an opinion of counsel to the Transferee stating,
with the customary assumptions and exceptions, that such
agreement or agreements has been duly authorized,
executed and delivered and constitute the legal, valid
and binding obligations of the Transferee enforceable in
accordance with their terms and that the entry into such
agreement(s) does not violate any laws or agreements
applicable to such Transferee.
The agreements, covenants, obligations and liabilities contained
herein, including but not limited to all obligations to pay Rent and
indemnify Lessor, are made for the benefit of Lessor, Beneficiary,
any assignee including the Head Lessor and/or the Bank as security
assignee, and their respective successors and assigns,
notwithstanding the possibility that any such person was not
originally a party to this Agreement or may, at the time any
enforcement is sought, no longer be a party to this Agreement.
Lessee shall comply, at Lessor's cost and expense, with all
reasonable requests of Lessor, its successors and assigns respecting
the assignment and Lessee's acknowledgment of the assignee as
Lessor. Notwithstanding anything contained in this paragraph to the

the Aircraft or Beneficiary's interest in the Trust Estate shall
alter the terms of this Agreement in so far as the costs to Lessee
of the performance of its obligations to pay Rent, Reserve Rate, and
Deposits hereunder and, except as otherwise expressly provided in
this Agreement, the rights and liabilities of Lessee under this
Agreement are concerned. Lessee's rights under this Agreement shall
not be subject or subordinate to any Security Assignment or Mortgage
executed by Lessor or
45
Beneficiary (which Security Assignment or Mortgage shall be subject
to this Agreement).
12.3 It is acknowledged and agreed that:
(a) Lessor has the right to assign all of its right, title and
interest in and to this Agreement and the Aircraft to the Head
Lessor and/or the Bank. In order to comply with its
obligations in relation thereto, Lessor will, upon such
assignment, give Lessee a notice of assignment and it is
agreed that Lessee shall forthwith acknowledge the same by
executing and delivering to Lessor on behalf of Head Lessor
and/or the Bank a consent to assignment in form and substance
reasonably acceptable to Head Lessor and/or the Bank;
(b) Lessor may be required by Head Lessor and/or the Bank to
assign to Head Lessor and/or the Bank all of its rights, title
and interest in and to the Insurances (other than liability
insurances). In order to comply with its obligations in
relation thereto, Lessor, upon assignment of this Agreement
pursuant to Article 12.3(a), shall give the insurers a notice
of assignment of Insurances and the Lessee shall procure that
such insurers forthwith acknowledge the same by executing and
delivering to Lessor an acknowledgment in form and substance
acceptable to Head Lessor and/or the Bank;
(c) Lessor may from time to time require to amend, modify or
replace the security arrangements in respect of the financing
or refinancing of the Aircraft and Lessee agrees to cooperate
with Lessor in connection therewith and, in particular (but
without limiting the generality of the foregoing), to change
the plates provided for in Article 4.3 and to execute and
deliver such other or further acknowledgments of assignment or
other documents and to do such other things as Lessor may
reasonably require to be executed and delivered;
(d) Upon any financing or refinancing of the Aircraft as
contemplated by this Article 12.3, Lessee will promptly and
duly execute and deliver to Lessor, Head Lessor or the Bank
such other documents and assurances and take such further
action as may from time to time be reasonably requested in
order more effectively to carry out the intent and purpose of
this Agreement, the Mortgage and the Security Assignment.
Lessee will procure on
46
request of Lessor that the independent counsel will confirm to
the Head Lessor and the Bank that the Head Lessor and the Bank
may rely on the terms of the opinion provided pursuant to
Article 2.2 as if the Head Lessor and the Bank were each
addressees of such opinion;
(e) Title to the Aircraft may be transferred by Lessor to the Head
Lessor to be indicated by Lessor or Beneficiary's interest in
the Trust Estate may be transferred by Beneficiary, in either
case for the purpose of enabling Lessor to raise finance in
relation to the Aircraft. In such event either a lease
agreement shall be executed in respect of the Aircraft between
the Head Lessor and Lessor ("Head Lease") in order to enable
Lessor to continue to lease the Aircraft to Lessee in
accordance with this Agreement or Lessor may assign all or
part of its rights, title and interest in and to this
Agreement and the Aircraft to Head Lessor pursuant to Article
12.2 or Beneficiary may assign all of its right, title and
interest in and to the Trust Estate and Lessee agrees to
cooperate with Lessor in connection therewith and, in
particular (but without limiting the generality of the
foregoing), to cooperate in the execution of any documents,
agreements and amendments to this Agreement that are necessary
in connection with such Head Lease or such assignment and to
do such other things as Lessor may require to be executed and
delivered so long as any such amendments to this Agreement do
not adversely affect Lessee; and
(f) Lessee shall not be liable to (1) any Transferee or (2) any
assignee, purchaser, or transferee of the beneficial interest
of the Trust Estate (a "Beneficiary Transferee") for any
payment of Taxes pursuant to this Agreement in excess of the
amount that would have been payable to the Lessor or the
Beneficiary originally party hereto, as the case may be, if
that party had remained as the Lessor or the Beneficiary,
respectively.
13. DISCLAIMER, REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
13.1 NEITHER LESSOR NOR BENEFICIARY IS A MANUFACTURER OF THE AIRCRAFT OR
OTHER AIRCRAFT OR A DEALER IN SIMILAR AIRCRAFT AND HAS NOT INSPECTED
THE AIRCRAFT PRIOR TO DELIVERY TO AND ACCEPTANCE BY LESSEE. LESSEE
(I) ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE AIRCRAFT IS BEING DELIVERED BY
LESSOR TO LESSEE "AS IS" AND "WHERE
47
IS" AND THAT NO CONDITION, WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION OF ANY KIND
WHATSOEVER HAS BEEN OR IS GIVEN BY OR IS TO BE IMPLIED ON THE PART
OF LESSOR OR BENEFICIARY IN RELATION TO THE AIRCRAFT, AND (II)
HEREBY WAIVES AS BETWEEN ITSELF AND LESSOR OR BENEFICIARY ALL ITS

SAMPLES OR MODELS, COMPLIANCE WITH SPECIFICATIONS, MERCHANTABILITY
OR FITNESS OR SUITABILITY FOR USE FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OF THE
AIRCRAFT OR ANY PART THEREOF, QUALITY OF THE MATERIAL OR
WORKMANSHIP, ABSENCE OF LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS, WHETHER OR NOT
DISCOVERABLE, ABSENCE OR ANY INFRINGEMENT OF ANY PATENT, TRADEMARK
OR COPYRIGHT, REMEDY IN TORT, BASED ON STRICT LIABILITY OR
NEGLIGENCE, ACTUAL OR IMPUTED, AND LESSEE HEREBY WAIVES ANY OTHER
REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY WHATSOEVER, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH
RESPECT TO THE AIRCRAFT, IT BEING UNDERSTOOD THAT ALL SUCH RISKS, AS
BETWEEN LESSEE AND LESSOR OR BENEFICIARY ARE TO BE BORNE BY LESSEE.
Nothing in this Agreement shall afford Lessor or any Indemnitee any
wider or greater exclusion of liability for death or bodily injury
than would be permitted by the Governing Law.
This paragraph shall not be modified except by a written agreement
signed on behalf of Lessor and Lessee by their respective duly
authorized representatives.
13.2 Lessor and Lessee agree that this Article 13 has been the subject of
discussion and negotiation and is fully understood by the parties,
and that the amount of the Rent and other mutual agreements of the
parties set forth in this Agreement were arrived at in consideration
of the provisions of this Article 13 specifically including the
waiver by Lessee set forth in Article 13.1.
13.3 So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing Lessor
agrees to assign or otherwise make available to Lessee for the
duration of the Term such rights as Lessor may have under any
warranty, express or implied, with respect to the Aircraft made by
the Manufacturer of the Aircraft, any subcontractor or supplier
thereof, or any other seller thereof, to the extent that the same
may be assigned or otherwise made available to Lessee and without
warranty by Lessor as to enforceability of any of the rights so
assigned.
48
To the extent that the same may not be assigned or otherwise made
available to Lessee, Lessor agrees to exert its reasonable efforts,
at Lessee's expense, to enforce such rights as Lessor may have with
respect thereto for the benefit of Lessee; provided however, that
upon an Event of Default all such rights shall immediately revert to
Lessor including all claims thereunder, whether or not perfected,
unless such Event of Default has forthwith been remedied by Lessee.

having jurisdiction with respect to the execution and delivery
of this Agreement or the validity and enforceability of this
Agreement or
49
the satisfaction of all monetary and other obligations
hereunder;
(d) This Agreement has been duly entered into and delivered by
Lessee and constitutes the valid, legal and binding

Security Assignment or to protect the property rights of
Lessor, Beneficiary, Head Lessor or the Bank in the Aircraft
and under the Mortgage and Security Assignment that this

relevant jurisdictions, and the Mortgage and Security
Assignment will have priority in all respects over the claims
of all creditors of Lessee in or against the Aircraft, except
for Permitted Liens;
(f) Under the Laws of the State of Incorporation and the State of
Registration Lessee will not be required to make any deduction
or withholding from any payment it may make under this
Agreement. There is no withholding or other tax to be deducted

of any relocation of said chief executive office or place
where such records are kept and of any change in its name.
13.5 The representations and warranties in Article 13.4 (other than in
clauses (f), (g) and (h)) shall be deemed to be repeated by Lessee
on and as of each Rent Date as if made with reference to the facts
and circumstances existing on each such date.

validly existing in good standing under the laws of the United
States of America, qualifies as a "citizen of the United
States" within the meaning of Section 40102(a)(15) of Title 49
of the United States Code and has the corporate power and
authority to carry on its business as presently conducted and
to perform its obligations under this Agreement; if at any

which Lessor is a party or by which Lessor or its properties
or assets may be bound; and
(d) Except for the registration of the Aircraft and the issuance
of the licenses described in Article 4.1, neither the

with, or the taking of any other action in respect of any
Government Entity.
The representations and warranties contained in clauses (a), (b) and

(b) Lessor may accept such Event of Default as a repudiation of
this Agreement and terminate the lease of the Aircraft to
Lessee hereunder by:
(i) serving notice of such termination on Lessee specifying
the occurrence giving rise to such Event of Default or
Events of Default, provided that such notice shall be
deemed to have been served without the necessity of
actual service upon the occurrence of any Event of
Default described in paragraphs (f), (g) and (h) of
Article 15.1.
Thereafter (if the Term shall have commenced) Lessee
shall redeliver possession of the Aircraft to Lessor at

election)
(ii) taking possession of the Aircraft for which purpose
Lessor by its servants or agents may enter upon Lessee's
premises where the Aircraft may be located, or cause the
same to be redelivered to Lessor at Schiphol Airport,
The Netherlands, (or such other location as Lessor may
require Lessee to assemble and deliver the Aircraft to
Lessor, and Lessor shall be entitled to act as attorney
for Lessee in causing such redelivery and shall have all
the powers and authorizations legally necessary for
taking such action. In the event of exercise by Lessor
of its powers
58
under this sub-paragraph (ii) such termination shall be
deemed to take effect on such taking of possession by
Lessor or such redelivery of the Aircraft to Lessor at
the said airport; and/or
(c) Lessor may proceed by appropriate court action or actions to
enforce performance of Article 15.2(b) or to recover damages
for the breach thereof; and/or
(d) all rights of Lessee hereunder shall, in the event the Term
shall be terminated pursuant to Article 15.2(b) henceforth
absolutely cease and terminate but without prejudice to
Lessee's obligations under this Agreement all of which shall
continue in full force and effect except for obligations to
pay Rent and Reserve Rate after the Aircraft is returned to
Lessor, and is in the condition required by Article 16; and
Lessee shall take all steps necessary to effect deregistration
of the Aircraft in the State of Registration and Lessor shall
be entitled to sell or otherwise deal with the Aircraft as if
this Agreement had never been made. Without prejudice to the
foregoing, Lessee hereby appoints Lessor as its attorney to do
any act or thing required in connection with such
deregistration of the Aircraft.
15.3 If an Event of Default occurs, Lessor shall have the right to demand
that:
(a) Lessee pay all amounts which may be then due and unpaid
hereunder, and
(b) at Lessor's option whether or not Lessor shall have exercised,
or shall thereafter at any time exercise, any of its rights
under Article 15.2, by thirty (30) days written notice to
Lessee from Lessor specifying a payment date, Lessee pay
Lessor, and Lessee shall pay Lessor, on the payment date
specified in such notice, as liquidated damages for loss of
bargain and not as a penalty (in lieu of the Rent due for the
Aircraft covered by such notice for the period commencing
after the date specified for payment in such notice), any
unpaid Rent for the Aircraft (prorated in the case of Rent on
a daily basis) to and including the payment date specified in
such notice, plus the amount, if any, by which the aggregate
Rent for the Aircraft for the remainder of the Term for the
Aircraft, discounted periodically (equal to installment
frequency) to present worth at the interest rate of six
percent
59
(6%) per annum, exceeds the Fair Market Rental Value of the
Aircraft for the remainder of the Term, after discounting such
Fair Market Rental Value periodically (equal to installment
frequency) to present worth as of the payment date specified
in such notice at the interest rate of six percent (6%) per
annum.
Lessee shall fully indemnify Lessor on its own behalf and on
behalf of the Head Lessor and the Bank on demand against any
loss (including loss of profit), damage, expense (including
without limitation attorneys' fees), cost or liability which
Lessor, Head Lessor or the Bank may sustain or incur as a
consequence of the occurrence of any Event of Default and/or
termination of the letting of the Aircraft pursuant to this
Agreement, including but not limited to (i) any loss of profit
suffered by Lessor and/or the Head Lessor because of Lessor's
inability to place the Aircraft on lease with another lessee
on terms as favorable to Lessor as the terms of this Agreement
or because whatever use, if any, to which Lessor is able to
put the Aircraft upon its return to Lessor, or the funds
arising upon a sale or other disposal thereof, is not as
profitable to Lessor as letting the Aircraft in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement would have been to the extent
the foregoing loss of profit shall not be recovered under
Article 15.3(b), (ii) any amount of interest, fees or other
sums whatsoever paid or payable on account of funds borrowed
in order to carry any unpaid amount, (iii) any loss, premium,
penalty or expense which may be incurred repaying funds raised
to finance the Aircraft or in unwinding any swap, forward
interest rate agreement or other financial instrument relating
in whole to Lessor's financing of the Aircraft and/or the
Aircraft under the Other Aircraft Agreement, and (iv) any
loss, cost, expense or liability sustained or incurred by
Lessor owing to Lessee's failure to re-deliver the Aircraft in
the condition required by this Agreement.
15.4 No remedy referred to in this Article 15 is exclusive, but each
remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy
referred to herein or otherwise available to Lessor. The exercise by
Lessor of any of its remedies hereunder shall not preclude or estop
the exercise or beginning of exercise by Lessor of any or more of
such other remedies.
60
No express or implied waiver by Lessor of any Event of Default, or
failure or delay of Lessor in exercising any right hereunder shall
operate as waiver thereof unless an express waiver is executed and
delivered to Lessee.
15.5 Prior to the Expected Delivery Date Lessee shall deliver to Lessor a
duly authorized consent, undated and in form and substance
acceptable to Lessor, addressed to the Federal Aviation
Administration consenting to the release of this Agreement in
connection with the termination of this Agreement pursuant to the
terms hereof and, if so requested by Lessor, the deregistration of
the Aircraft from the register of civil aviation in the State of
Registration.

16.1 On the Expiry Date or upon earlier termination of the Term (unless a
Casualty Occurrence shall have occurred with respect to the
Aircraft), Lessee shall, at its own expense, redeliver the Aircraft
to Lessor at the Re-Delivery Location or such other airport as is
mutually acceptable to the parties, in a condition complying with
the provisions of Appendix E, free and clear of all liens and
encumbrances (including Permitted Liens other than Lessor Liens) and
thereupon cause the Aircraft to be removed from the Register of
Civil Aircraft in the State of Registration and Lessee shall return
the Aircraft to Lessor together with the Aircraft Documents and all
equipment and records supplied pursuant to this Agreement when the
Aircraft was delivered to Lessee hereunder.
16.2 Immediately prior to such redelivery of the Aircraft, Lessee, at its
own expense, shall make the Aircraft, Aircraft Documents and other
records available to Lessor for inspection ("Final Inspection") in
order to verify that the condition of the Aircraft complies with the
provisions of this Agreement. Such inspection shall not unreasonably
interfere with the operation of the Aircraft. The period will be
long enough for the Final Inspection to permit the conduct by Lessor
of the following:
(a) Inspection of the Aircraft Documents;
(b) Inspection of the Aircraft structure and Parts;
61
(c) Inspection of the Engines and Auxiliary Power Unit ("A.P.U."),
including without limitation, a boroscope inspection or any
other equivalent inspection method supported by Rolls Royce,
inspection of the compressor and turbine area, and, if
reasonably requested based on evidence that it is required,
the Engine and A.P.U. condition runs confirming release of
each Engine and A.P.U for its remaining operational life;
(d) A one-hour to two-hour test flight with Lessor's
representatives on board as observers and, if any non-
compliance is found, a subsequent test flight to check
compliance after rectification.
16.3 To the extent that, upon such Final Inspection, the condition of the
Aircraft and Aircraft Documents does not comply with the provisions
of this Agreement, Lessee, at its own expense, shall cause such
non-compliance to be promptly rectified and to the extent such
rectification extends beyond the Expiry Date, the Term shall, at
Lessor's sole option, be deemed to be automatically extended and the
provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect
until such rectification has been accomplished. During such
extension of the Term the Lessee shall be liable to pay Rent at a
daily pro rata rate equal to the Rent payable during the last Rental
Period of the Term.
16.4 Upon redelivery Lessee shall provide to Lessor all necessary
assistance to enable Lessor to obtain any required documents in
relation to the export of the Aircraft from the State of
Registration, and if different, from the State of Incorporation
(including a valid and subsisting export license for the Aircraft),
and shall reassign to Lessor, at the expense of Lessee, the benefit
of any indemnity or warranty which has been assigned to Lessee
pursuant to Article 13.3 above to the extent such indemnity or
warranty is assignable.
16.5 Prior to the Expiry Date or upon any earlier termination of the Term
and upon Lessor's request, Lessee will provide Lessor or its agent
reasonable access to the Approved Maintenance Program and the
Aircraft Documents in order to facilitate the Aircraft's integration
into any subsequent operator's fleet.
Lessee will, if requested by Lessor to do so, upon return of the
Aircraft deliver to Lessor a certified true current and complete
copy of the Approved Maintenance Program. Lessor agrees that it will
not disclose the contents of the Approved Maintenance Program to any
person or entity except to the extent
62
necessary to monitor Lessee's compliance with this Agreement and/or
to bridge the maintenance program for the Aircraft from the Approved
Maintenance Program to another program.
16.6 Upon redelivery of the Aircraft to Lessor, an adjustment shall be
made in respect of fuel on board on the Delivery Date and on
redelivery at the price then prevailing at the Redelivery Location.
16.7 If Lessor shall request that Lessee paint the Aircraft any other
basic color as contemplated by Section 1(h) of Appendix E, Lessor
agrees that it shall bear the cost and expense of the difference
between white paint and such other basic color.
16.8 Upon written request of Lessor given to Lessee not later than thirty
(30) days prior to the Expiry Date or termination of the Lease,
Lessee, at the Expiry Date or upon termination of the Lease, will
provide, or will cause to be provided, up to thirty (30) days'
storage of the Aircraft at Lessee's premises, at Lessor's cost and
expense. During such period of storage, Lessee will arrange for
insurance and maintenance at Lessor's cost and expense. Lessee shall
allow Lessor or any representatives of any prospective purchaser or
user of the Aircraft to inspect the same at all reasonable times.
17. CASUALTY OCCURRENCES
17.1 In this Agreement "Casualty Occurrence" shall mean any of the
following events with respect to the Aircraft, the Airframe or an
Engine:
(a) the actual, agreed, constructive, arranged or compromised
total loss or destruction of the Aircraft, the Airframe or an
Engine, or damage to the Aircraft, Airframe or Engine
rendering repair impracticable or uneconomical, or the
Aircraft, Airframe or Engine being rendered permanently unfit
for normal use;
(b) requisition of title or other compulsory acquisition,
requisition, capture, seizure, deprivation, confiscation or
detention for any reason of the Aircraft, the Airframe or an
Engine by any Government Entity of the State of Registration
or by any other government or other competent authority,
whether de jure or de facto, but excluding requisition for use
or hire not involving requisition of title by any Governmental
Entity for a temporary period ending on the date
63
fifteen (15) days (or the Expiry Date) if the requisition for
use or hire is by the United States) after such requisition,
or the Expiry Date, whichever first occurs; and
(c) the hijacking, theft, disappearance, condemnation,
confiscation or seizure of the Aircraft, the Airframe or an
Engine other than in the circumstances referred to in (b)
above which deprives Lessee of the use thereof for more than
fifteen (15) consecutive days.
17.2 (a) In the event of a Casualty Occurrence with respect to the
Aircraft or Airframe prior to the Delivery Date, this
Agreement shall immediately terminate with respect to such
Aircraft and neither party shall have any further obligation
or liability hereunder, save that Lessor shall return to
Lessee the Deposit or such part thereof as Lessor shall have
received from Lessee and Lessee shall remain liable to
reimburse Lessor for any amounts specified in Article 8.2(a).
(b) In the event of a Casualty Occurrence with respect to the
Aircraft or Airframe after delivery to Lessee hereunder,
Lessee shall pay the Agreed Value to Lessor on or prior to the
earlier of (i) 45 days after the Casualty Occurrence and (ii)
the Business Day after the date of receipt of the insurance
proceeds in respect of the Casualty Occurrence and, provided
all other amounts which are then due and payable by Lessee
under this Agreement have been paid in full to Lessor,
Lessee's obligation hereunder for payment of Rent shall cease
as from the date on which Lessor receives payment in full of
the Agreed Value. Rent paid in advance for any days which
occur after such Agreed Value is paid shall be repaid to
Lessee, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing,
on a pro rata basis for each day beyond such date of payment
of Agreed Value. Any excess insurance proceeds from the
insurance obtained by Lessee pursuant to Article 11 remaining
after payment of the foregoing amounts shall, unless a Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, be paid over to Lessee.
(c) Subject to the rights of any insurers and reinsurers or other
third party, upon irrevocable payment in full to Lessor of the
Agreed Value and all other amounts which may be or become
payable to Lessor under this Agreement, Lessor will without
recourse or warranty (except as to title and Lessor's Liens)
and without further act, be
64
deemed to have transferred to Lessee all of Lessor's rights to
any Engines and Parts not installed when the Casualty
Occurrence occurred, all on an as-is where-is basis, and will
at Lessee's expense, execute and deliver such bills of sale
and other documents and instruments as Lessee may reasonably
request to evidence (on the public record or otherwise) the
transfer and the vesting of Lessor's rights in such Engines
and Parts in Lessee, free and clear of all rights of Lessor
and Lessor Liens.
17.3 Upon the Casualty Occurrence with respect to any Engine not
involving a Casualty Occurrence of the Aircraft, Lessee shall give
Lessor prompt written notice thereof and Lessee shall replace such
Engine as soon as reasonably possible with a replacement Engine in
accordance with Article 5.1.2(a). Such replacement shall be deemed
an "Engine" as defined herein. Lessee agrees to take such action as
Lessor may reasonably request in order that any such replacement
Engine shall be duly and properly titled in Lessor or the Bank and
leased hereunder and subject to the Mortgage to the same extent as
the Engine replaced thereby. Lessee's obligation to pay the Rent
hereunder shall continue in full force and effect, but Lessee shall
be entitled to be reimbursed by Lessor the amount of insurance or
condemnation proceeds, if any, received by Lessor with respect to
such replaced Engine.
17.4 In the event of requisition for hire of the Aircraft or any part
thereof not constituting a Casualty Occurrence, then, subject to the
proviso herein contained, the Rent and other charges payable under
this Agreement shall not be suspended or abated either in whole or
in part, and Lessee shall not be released from any of its other
obligations (as to payment, indemnity or otherwise) hereunder (other
than operational obligations with which Lessee is unable to comply
solely by virtue of such confiscation or requisition).
If Lessee shall duly comply with all its obligations under this
Agreement, Lessee shall during the Term be entitled to any hire paid
by the requisitioning or confiscating authority and Lessee shall, as
soon as practicable after the end of any requisition or
confiscation, cause the Aircraft to be put into the condition
required by this Agreement. Lessor shall be entitled to all
compensation payable by the requisitioning or confiscating authority
in respect of any change in the structure, state or condition of the
Aircraft arising during the period of requisition or confiscation,
and Lessor shall apply such compensation
65
in reimbursing Lessee for the cost of complying with its obligations
as aforesaid, but so that, if any Default has occurred and is
continuing, Lessor shall be entitled to apply such compensation in
or towards settlement of any amounts owing by Lessee under this
Agreement PROVIDED ALWAYS that if following such requisition or
confiscation the Aircraft is treated as an agreed, constructive,
arranged or compromised total loss by the insurers, then the
provisions of Article 17.1 shall apply with effect from the date on
which the insurer so determines.
18. GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION
18.1 This Agreement and further agreements resulting herefrom shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the internal Laws of
the State of New York and without regard to any conflict of law
rules. This Agreement is being delivered in the State of New York.
18.2 Lessor and Lessee hereby irrevocably agree to submit to the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of, and to waive any objection to the

court located in New York County, New York.
18.3 Nothing contained in this Article 18 shall limit the right of either
party to this Agreement to take Proceedings against the other in any

Proceedings in one or more jurisdictions preclude the taking of
Proceedings in any other jurisdiction, whether concurrently or not.
18.4 Promptly after service of any process the Lessor or Lessee shall
dispatch a copy thereof to Lessee or Lessor, as the case may be, by
registered mail, postage prepaid but failure of Lessee or Lessor, as
the case may be, to receive such copy shall not invalidate the
service of such process.
18.5 To the extent that the parties may in any jurisdiction claim for
their or their assets immunity from suit, execution, 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 themselves or their assets such immunity
(whether or not claimed) the parties hereby irrevocably agree not to
claim and hereby irrevocably waive any immunity to the fullest
extent permitted by
66
the laws of such jurisdiction with the intent, inter alia, that the
foregoing waiver shall have effect for the purposes of the Foreign
Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 of the United States of America.

delivered to such agent at its address for the time being. Each of
Lessee and Lessor undertakes that if it shall revoke the authority
of its above agent or if for any reason any such agent no longer
serves as agent to receive service of process, Lessee or Lessor, as
the case may be, shall promptly appoint another such agent and
advise Lessor or Lessee, as the case may be, thereof.
19. MISCELLANEOUS
19.1 The rights of each of Lessor and Lessee under this Agreement are
cumulative, may be exercised as often as it considers appropriate
and are in addition to its rights under general law. The rights of
Lessor against the Lessee or in relation to the Aircraft (whether
arising under this Agreement or the general law) shall not, as
against or in favor of Lessor, be capable of being waived or varied
otherwise than by an express waiver or variation in writing; and in
particular any failure to exercise or delay in exercising any of
such rights shall not operate as a waiver or variation of any other
such right; and defective or partial exercise of any such rights
shall not preclude any other or further exercise of that or any
other such right; and no act or course of conduct or negotiation on
Lessor's part or on Lessor's behalf shall in any way preclude Lessor
from exercising any such right or constitute a suspension or any
variation of any such right.

determination by Lessor as to any rate of interest or as to any
other amount payable under this Agreement shall, in the absence of
manifest error, be conclusive and binding on Lessee.

67
rental, interest, fees or any other amount due under this Agreement
in such proportions and order and generally in such manner as Lessor
shall determine.
19.4 The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall not be varied
otherwise than by an instrument in writing executed by or on behalf

19.7 This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and all
of such counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute
one and the same instrument.
19.8 This Agreement is the sole and entire agreement between Lessor and
Lessee in relation to the leasing of the Aircraft, and supersedes
all previous agreements in relation to such leasing. Each of Lessee
and Lessor represents for itself that no broker has been retained by
it in connection with this Agreement.
19.9 This Agreement is intended by the parties to be a lease between
Lessor and Lessee. Any waivers, consents, deferrals of the payment
of Rent or Reserve Rates are not intended to be an agreement by
Lessor to make any capital contribution to the business of Lessee or
to share in or have liability for any of Lessee's losses, profits,
liabilities or obligations. Nothing contained in this Agreement or
performed by Lessor in connection herewith and any other agreement
between Lessor and Lessee whether now existing or entered into in
the
69
future shall make Lessor a partner or a joint venturer of Lessee and
shall not for any purpose be construed as a joint-venture between
the parties hereto.
19.10 Intentionally Omitted.
19.11 Section 1110: Lessee acknowledges that Lessor would not have entered
into this Agreement unless it had available to it the benefits of a
lessor under Section 1110 of Title 11 of the United States Code.
Lessee and Lessor hereby state that this Agreement is intended to be
a true lease for U.S. Internal Revenue Code purposes. Lessee
covenants and agrees with Lessor that to better ensure the
availability of such benefits, Lessee shall support any motion,
petition or application filed by Lessor with any bankruptcy court
having jurisdiction over Lessee, whereby Lessor seeks recovery of
possession of the Aircraft under said Section 1110 and shall not in
any way oppose such action by Lessor unless Lessee shall have
complied with the requirements of said Section 1110 to be fulfilled
in order to entitle Lessee to continued use and possession of the
Aircraft hereunder. In the event said Section 1110 is amended, or if
it is repealed and another statute is enacted in lieu thereof,
Lessor and Lessee agree to amend this Agreement and take such other
action not inconsistent with this Agreement as Lessor reasonably
deems necessary so as to afford to Lessor the rights and benefits as
such amended or substituted statute confers upon owners and lessors
of aircraft similarly situated to Lessor.
19.12 First Security Bank of Utah, N.A. ("FSBU") is entering into this
Agreement solely as trustee under the Trust Agreement and not in its
individual capacity and in no case whatsoever shall FSBU (or any
entity acting as successor trustee under the Trust Agreement) be
personally liable on, or for any loss in respect of, any of the
statements, representations, warranties, agreements or obligations
of Lessor hereunder as to all of which the other party hereto agrees
to look solely to the Trust Estate, except for any loss caused by
FSBU's own willful misconduct or gross negligence. FSBU warrants
that the Aircraft shall be free of liens attributable to FSBU in its
individual capacity which do not arise from its actions as lessor
under this Agreement and that it shall be personally liable to
Lessee for any Claim against Lessee in respect of any statements,
representations, warranties, agreements or obligations contained
herein which are expressly made in its individual capacity.
70
19.13 As between Lessor and Lessee, if Lessee fails to make any payment of
Rent or Reserve Rate required to be made by it hereunder or fails to
perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein,
Lessor may itself make such payment or perform or comply with such
agreement, and the amount of such payment and the amount of the
reasonable and properly documented expenses of Lessor incurred in
connection with such payment or the performance of or compliance
with such agreement, as the case may be, together with interest
thereon at the interest rate defined in Appendix D, Article 6, shall
be deemed Supplemental Rent, payable by Lessee upon demand.

APPENDIX D
CHARGES
1. Deposit
Lessee shall pay to Lessor [***] as a Deposit for the Aircraft on or
prior to January 5, 1996 in the manner specified in Paragraph 4 of
this Appendix D.
The Deposit shall be held by Lessor during the Term as security for the
full and punctual performance of all of Lessee's obligations to Lessor
under this Agreement. Lessor may, but shall not be obliged to, apply the
Deposit in whole or in part for the payment of any rent, maintenance
accruals, indemnities, attorneys fees and other expenses, insurance and
other casualty payments and any other amount owing from time to time by
Lessee hereunder or any other Operative Document, between Beneficiary or
its affiliate companies, and Lessee, or for the payment of any loss or
damage suffered by Lessor as a result of any Event of Default or utilize
the Deposit in whole or in part to perform any of Lessee's obligations
under this Agreement or otherwise remedy any other Event of Default,
including, without limitation, in the redelivery condition for the
Aircraft without prejudice to any other remedy of Lessor. In any such
event Lessee shall on demand restore the Deposit to the full amount
provided for herein by payment to Lessor of an amount in cash equal to the
amount applied or utilized. Lessee shall not attempt to subject the
Deposit to any other lien, security interest, charge or other encumbrance
or assign any interest therein to any other person and, to the extent of
its interest therein, if any, Lessee hereby grants to Lessor a security
interest in the Deposit and assigns and transfers to Lessor any and all of
Lessee's right, title and interest therein, if any, as security as
provided above, and Lessor shall be entitled to the remedy of offset
against and application of the Deposit, without any notice to or demand
against Lessee, all of which are hereby waived. Lessee further agrees that
the Deposit may be, without derogating from the terms of this Agreement,
assigned as security to the Bank or transferred to any other transferee of
Lessor. Should any Event of Default hereunder occur, the Deposit shall
automatically be applied to any sum due to Lessor or as a prepayment of
any sum to become payable to Lessor, unless Lessor thereafter elects
otherwise by notice to Lessee.
Any remaining Deposit shall be repaid by Lessor to Lessee ten (10) days
following the Expiry Date or other date after redelivery of the Aircraft
in accordance with this Agreement. In the event there is a dispute as to
whether
76
Lessee is entitled to a return of any portion of the Deposit, Lessor shall
so return the undisputed amount of the Deposit. Upon a repayment of such
Deposit or portion thereof, Lessor's security interest in and assignment
of such Deposit or portion thereof being repaid shall be deemed released.
Lessor's obligations in respect of the return of the Deposit shall be
those of debtor of Lessee, not of a trustee or other fiduciary.
The Deposit shall bear interest on the amounts then held at a rate of
interest per annum yielding $10,500 (Dollars Ten Thousand Five Hundred)
per year payable annually commencing on the first anniversary of the
Delivery Date, and on each anniversary thereafter unless the Deposit and
interest thereon shall have been applied pursuant to this Agreement. Any
reference to the Deposit in this Agreement shall include the interest
accumulated thereon and not paid to Lessee.
2. Rent
2.1 Rent shall be due and payable on each Rent Date and, with respect to
the final Rent date, shall be prorated through and including the
Expiry Date based upon the actual number of days and a thirty-day
month. If such date is not a Business Day then Rent shall be due and
payable on the last Business Day preceding such date.
2.2 The monthly Rent shall be adjusted upward by an amount equal to $875
(Dollars Eight Hundred Seventy Five) per month which shall be
payable to Lessor by check annually commencing on the first
anniversary of the Delivery Date, and on each anniversary
thereafter, with the balance due at the Expiry Date. Lessee may
elect to authorize Lessor in writing to set-off amounts payable
pursuant to this Article against interest on the Deposit which is

3. Reserve Rate
3.1 In addition to installments of Rent, Lessee shall pay to Lessor the
Reserve Rate as follows:
(a) by way of an Airframe maintenance accrual, the sum of [***]
of which [***] shall be accrued for the 12,000 hour check and
[***] shall be accrued for the 24,000 hours check until the
12,000 hours check shall have been executed. After execution
of such check, 100% (one hundred percent) of the Airframe
Maintenance Accrual shall be accrued for the 24,000 hours
check for each Flight Hour the Aircraft is operated during the
Term ("Airframe Maintenance Accrual"); and
(b) by way of an Engine maintenance accrual, in respect of each
Engine the sum of [***] for each Flight Hour operated by each
Engine during the Term ("Engine Maintenance Accrual"). The
percentage of the various maintenance activities shall be
agreed between the parties after signing of this Agreement;
and
(c) by way of a landing gear maintenance accrual, the sum of
[***] for each Cycle operated by the landing gear during the
Term ("Landing Gear Maintenance Accrual").
The Airframe, Engine and Landing Gear Maintenance Accruals accruing
in any Rental Period shall be paid by Lessee to Lessor not later
than ten (10) days after the end of the calendar month in which such
Rental Period shall end; provided that Lessee shall be relieved of
its obligation to pay the Engine Maintenance Accrual or Landing Gear
Maintenance Accrual with respect to any Engine or Landing Gear, as
the case may be, during any period that an Aircraft Maintenance
Agreement is in effect with respect to such Engine or Landing Gear.
Concurrently with the payment thereof, Lessee shall report to Lessor
(in accordance with Article 7.1(e)) the number of Flight Hours and
Cycles accumulated in respect of the period for which payment is
being made.
78
The Reserve Rate will be subject to adjustment every six (6) months
during the Term by reference for 65% to the Employment and Earnings
Index for U.S.A. labor cost average hourly earnings of production
(Aircraft Equipment) SIC 3728, table C-2 and for 35% to the Producer
Price Index for U.S.A. material cost commodity groupings (Machinery
and Equipment) Code 11/table 6. In addition the Engine Maintenance
Accrual, if any, will be subject to adjustment every six (6) months
during the Term having regard to the Engine Manufacturer
recommendations, industry experience and any change in the
operational environment of the Aircraft.
Any Reserve Rate shall, if requested by either Lessor or (unless an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing) Lessee, be
adjusted to take into account any changes in the maintenance
intervals upon which Reserve Rates are based.
3.2 Maintenance Accruals as defined in paragraph 3.1 above and received
by Lessor shall respectively be credited to funds (collectively
"Maintenance Funds") to be known as the "Airframe Maintenance Fund",
the "Engine Maintenance Fund" and the "Landing Gear Maintenance
Fund" which funds shall reduce as monies are released to Lessee
therefrom in accordance with Article 7.4.1.
3.3 The monies in the Maintenance Funds under the Transwede Lease held
by Beneficiary at the date of termination thereof shall be
transferred by Beneficiary to the respective Maintenance Funds under
this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of the Tripartite
Agreement.
3.4 The Reserve Rates shall accrue interest at a rate which will be 1%
(one percent) less than six (6) months LIBOR applicable to each six
(6) months over which the rate will be calculated. For the
determination of such rate of interest the first such 6 (Six) month
period shall start at the Delivery Date and subsequent 6 (Six) month
periods shall start at expiry of the previous 6 (Six) month period.
Such interest shall accrue in the relevant Maintenance Fund and
shall be paid to Lessee at the moment and to the extent any "Excess"
as described in Paragraph 3.6 of this Appendix D shall be paid out
to Lessee.
3.5 Intentionally deleted.
79
3.6 On the Expiry Date, if there is any Excess (as defined below) in any
Maintenance Fund, such Excess shall, unless a Default shall have
occurred and be continuing (in which case only after termination,
return of the Aircraft and payment of all amounts due following
exercise of remedies under Article 15), be paid to Lessee, and on
such date, if there is any Shortfall (as defined below) in any
Maintenance Fund, Lessee shall pay such Shortfall to Lessor.
"Excess" in any Maintenance Fund on the Expiry Date shall mean any
positive difference obtained by subtracting (x) from (y) for the
Airframe, Engines, Landing Gears or A.P.U., as the case may be;
(x) shall mean the product of (I) the then market cost from an
independent Authorized Maintenance Performer in the United States
and corrected for the experience of all United States based
operators of Fokker 100 aircraft for the relevant item:
with respect to the Aircraft, to perform a scheduled airframe
heavy maintenance as defined in the Maintenance Program for
12,000 hours and 24,000 hours inspections or any equivalent
thereof with more or less hours ("Airframe Maintenance"), or
with respect to any Engine, to perform a scheduled shop visit
engine maintenance and repair, other than (i) repairs arising
as a result of foreign object damage or operations mishandling
and/or (ii) maintenance and repair of QEC (Quick Engine
Change) kits ("Engine Maintenance"), or
with respect to any nose or main landing gear to perform a
schedule shop visit nose and main landing gear maintenance and
repair, other than repairs arising as a result of foreign
object damage or operational mishandling ("Landing Gear
Maintenance"), and
(II) a fraction of which (a) the numerator shall be the difference
between the actual number of hours or cycles (as to landing gear),
as the case may be, of operation remaining on the Airframe, Engine
or Landing Gear, as the case may be, to the next such Airframe
Maintenance, Engine Maintenance or Landing Gear Maintenance, as the
case may be, and the total number of hours or cycles, as the
80
case may be, of operation allowable between such Maintenance and (b)
the denominator shall be the total number of hours or cycles, as the
case may be, of operation allowable between such Maintenance.
(y) shall mean the actual dollar amount remaining in the respective
Maintenance Fund.
"Shortfall" in any Maintenance Fund on the Expiry Date shall mean
any negative difference obtained by subtracting (x) above from (y)
above and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include any shortfall
created by Lessee having been relieved, by reason of an Aircraft
Maintenance Agreement pursuant to Article 3.1 of this Appendix D, of
its obligation to pay any element of the Maintenance Accrual.
4. Payments
All payments of Rent due hereunder shall be effected by Lessee to Lessor
by transfer to Chemical Bank in New York, New York, in favor of the
Beneficiary, account number 000-0-00000, Ref. Aircraft MSN 11330, LA136,
and all payments of Reserve Rate and Supplemental Rent due hereunder shall
be effected by Lessee to Lessor by transfer to Chemical Bank in New York,
New York, in favor of the Beneficiary, account number 000-0-00000, Ref.
Reserve Rate Aircraft MSN 11330, and all such payments shall be in Dollars
and in immediately available funds, and all such payments shall be
initiated adequately in advance of the due dates to ensure that Lessor
receives credit for the full amount of such payment on the due dates. All
such payments shall be made in full without any deduction or withholding
(whether in respect of set-off, counterclaim, duties, taxes, charges or
otherwise howsoever) unless Lessee is prohibited by Law from doing so, in
which event Lessee shall (a) ensure that the deduction or withholding does
not exceed the minimum amount legally required; (b) forthwith pay to
Lessor such additional amount as shall result in the net amount received
by Lessor being equal to the amount which would have been received by
Lessor had such a deduction or withholding not been made; (c) pay to the
relevant taxation or other authorities within the period for payment
permitted by applicable Law the full amount of the deduction or
withholding; and (d) upon request in writing from Lessor to Lessee furnish
to Lessor, within the period for payment permitted by applicable Law, an
official receipt of the relevant taxation or other authorities involved
for all amounts deducted or withheld as aforesaid.
81
5. Currencies
If under any applicable Law, whether as a result of judgment against
Lessee or the liquidation of Lessee or for any other reason, any payment
under or in connection with this Agreement is made or recovered in a
currency other than United States Dollars then, to the extent that the
payment (when converted to United States Dollars at the rate of exchange
on the date of payment or, in the case of the liquidation, the latest date
for the determination of liability permitted by the applicable Law) falls
short of the amount unpaid under this Agreement, Lessee shall, as a
separate and independent obligation, fully indemnify Lessor against the
amount of the short fall; for the purposes of this paragraph, "rate of
exchange" means the rate at which Lessor is able on the relevant date to
purchase United States Dollars in London with that other currency.
6. Default Interest
If any amount payable pursuant to this Agreement is not paid by Lessee on
the due date, Lessee shall pay to Lessor interest (after as well as before
judgment) on such amount, at the rate of 6-month LIBOR (as applicable two
Business Days before the date of Default)), plus four per cent (4%) per
annum from the due date to the date of payment in full by Lessee to
Lessor, but in the event such rate shall be in excess of the highest rate
permitted by applicable law, then it shall mean the highest rate allowed
by applicable law. All amounts of interest payable hereunder shall be
calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a 360-day
year.
7. Set-off
At any time after an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, Lessor shall be entitled to set-off or withhold from any
amount due and payable to Lessee under this Agreement or any Other
Aircraft Agreement, or any amount standing to the credit of Lessee on any
account, in or towards the satisfaction of any amounts from time to time
due and payable by Lessee under this Agreement or any Other Aircraft
Agreement or any liability or obligation of Lessee under this Agreement or
any Other Aircraft Agreement, and shall be entitled to do so
notwithstanding that any such amount or amounts may not be expressed in
the same currency.
8. Time at which payments are due
Supplemental Rent shall be due and payable on demand unless otherwise
expressly stated herein.
82
9. Purchase Option
Lessor grants to Lessee the right to purchase and to take delivery of the
Aircraft on the Expiry Date of this Agreement for a price equal to the
greater of the fair market value (as deferred to the penultimate sentence
of this paragraph, "FMV") of the Aircraft on the Expiry Date and
[***]; such price being the "Option Price"). If Lessee elects to exercise
its right to purchase the Aircraft, Lessee shall do so by giving to
Lessor written notice of such election at least two hundred seventy (270)
days prior to the Expiry Date. The FMV of the Aircraft on the Expiry Date
shall be established by an independent internationally reputed aircraft
appraiser appointed by mutual agreement of Lessor and Lessee within one
(1) month of the date of receipt by Lessor of Lessee's notice of election
to purchase. If Lessor and Lessee shall be unable to agree on such
aircraft appraiser, FMV shall be established by a mutually agreed
appraisal prepared and delivered by two independent internationally
reputed aircraft appraisers, one of which shall be chosen by Lessor and
one by Lessee. If such appraisers shall be unable to agree on FMV, FMV
shall be equal to the average of the fair market values established by
such appraisers. Any appraisal shall meet internationally accepted
standards and shall be binding upon Lessee and Lessor. The appraisal
procedure outlined in this Article 9 shall be referred to herein as the
"Appraisal Procedure". The FMV shall be equal in amount to the value that
would be obtained as of the Expiry Date in an arms'-length transaction
between an informed and willing purchaser under no compulsion to buy and
an informed and willing seller under no compulsion to sell with the
Aircraft assumed to be in the condition required upon the return thereof
at the end of the Term in accordance with Article 16 without considering
the encumbrance of this Agreement. All costs and expenses of the FMV
appraisal shall be shared equally by Lessor and Lessee. Upon receipt by
Lessor of the Option Price, Lessor will pay to Lessee any remaining
amounts in the Maintenance Funds and it will transfer to Lessee title to
the Aircraft on an "AS IS--WHERE IS" basis without any warranty or
recourse (except as to the absence of Lessor's Liens) and will also
transfer any surviving warranty given by Manufacturer. Lessor shall
execute and deliver to Lessee on such scheduled purchase date a xxxx of
sale to the Aircraft.

set forth.
NOW THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1
1. Amendment.
1.1 Article 7 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding a new Article
7.6 thereto as follows:
"7.6 "Without in any way limiting the rights contained elsewhere in
the Agreement, Lessor shall have the right to have observers
(who may or may not be employees of Lessor) on site at
Lessee's premises (provided such observers do not unreasonably
interfere with Lessee's business or operations) and, provided
the recipients of any financial and operational information of
Lessee (which recipients may include employees or other
representatives of Beneficiary or any of its affiliates, or
agents, attorneys or accountants of Beneficiary or any of its
affiliates) agree to keep strictly confidential any such
information, Lessor shall have the right to inspect and review
any internal financial and operational information of Lessee
as Lessor may reasonably request (provided such request is
made to Lessee's controller or to a vice president, senior
vice president or the president of Lessee), including, without
limitation, cash flow statements, financial books and records,
and any other records relating to the operation of Lessee's
fleet. Lessee covenants that it will fully cooperate with
Lessor regarding any inspection of Lessee's fleet and records
pursuant to this Agreement."
1.2. Article 15.1(n) of the Agreement is hereby amended by deleting it in its
entirety and replacing it with the following:
"(n) if any event of default (however defined) occurs under (i) any
of the Other Aircraft Agreements, (ii) any other lease
agreements between Lessee and a lessor for the benefit,
directly or indirectly, of debis AirFinance B.V. or
Daimler-Benz Aerospace, A.G., relating to other aircraft
("DASA Aircraft Agreements"), or (iii) any Aircraft
Maintenance Agreement entered into by Lessee in lieu of
Reserve Rate payments relating to Engine Maintenance Accruals
or Landing Gear Maintenance Accruals, which event permits
acceleration or termination; or"
1.3 Article 15.1 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following as
Article 15.1(o):
"(o) if Lessee's financial performance deviates in any material
adverse way (as determined by Lessor in its sole, but
reasonable, discretion) from the projections set forth on
Lessee's Business Plan for calendar year 1996 (attached hereto
as Exhibit A), taken as a
2
whole, and such deviation is not the result of a natural
disaster which effectively makes it impossible for Lessee to
meet such projections; or"
1.4 Article 15.1 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following as
Article 15.1(p):
"(p) if, prior to satisfaction of Lessee's obligations to pay
Deferred Rent and Deferred Deposit (as defined in Section 2 of
this Amendment) Lessee shall make (i) any payment of principal
or interest on any amounts owed by Lessee to Xxxx/Chilmark
Fund, L.P. ("Xxxx") or any affiliate of Xxxx, (ii) any
redemption of, or any dividend or distribution with respect
to, any shares of Lessee owned by Xxxx or any affiliate of
Xxxx, (iii) any prepayment of principal or interest with
respect to any other subordinated debt owed by Lessee or (iv)
any redemption of, or any dividend or other distribution with
respect to, any other shares of Lessee; or"
1.5 Article 15.1 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following as
Article 15.1(q):
"(q) if Lessee shall fail to fulfill any of the obligations set
forth in paragraphs (c) or (d) of Section 2 of this
Amendment."
1.6 Article 15.2 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding "(a), (n), (q)" to
clause (i) of paragraph (b) thereof following the word "paragraphs" and by
adding to such Article the following additional clause;
"provided, however, that such automatic termination shall not apply
with respect to defaults of the type referred to in Articles 15.1(a)
or (n) of the Agreement prior to the date hereof or for payment
defaults for Rent Dates occurring in February, March or April 1996,
for so long as Lessee makes the payments specified in paragraphs (c)
and (d) of Section 2 of this Amendment."
1.7 Article 16 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding a new Article 16.9
thereto as follows:
"16.9 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, Lessee covenants that upon earlier termination of this
Agreement pursuant to Article 15, Lessee will not interpose any
defense to, or otherwise oppose, any action commenced by Lessor to
regain possession of the Aircraft and Lessee shall join in any
application by Lessor to regain possession of the Aircraft if so
requested by Lessor. This covenant shall apply whether or not
3
Lessee is or shall subsequently become a debtor in a case under
Title 11 of the United States Code."
2. Forbearance
Execution of this Amendment shall serve as Lessor's agreement to
forebear from exercising its rights (including, without limitation, its rights
under Article 15 of the Agreement) with respect to:
(a) Lessee's failure to make payments of Rent or Deposits due under the
Agreement in January 1996 and for Rent Dates occurring in February, March and,
with the exception of the initial payment specified in clause (c)(v) of this
Section 2, April 1996; and
(b) Lessee's failure to make payment of Reserve Rate constituting Engine
Maintenance Accruals due under the Agreement for the period prior to January 1,
1996;
provided, however, that Lessor's agreement to forbear shall be effective,
for so long, and only so long, as Lessee otherwise complies with all the terms
of the Agreement, as amended, and fulfills the obligations set forth in
paragraphs (c) and (d) of this Section 2, as follows:
(c) Lessee shall pay to Lessor the following amounts:
(i) [***] on the Rent Date occurring in February 1996;
(ii) [***] on the Rent Date occurring in March 1996;
(iii) [***] on the Rent Date occurring in April 1996;
(iv) [***] ("Deferred Rent") on May 20,1996 and on each Rent Date
thereafter throughout the Term (as specified on pages 1 and 2 of Exhibit B
hereto -- "Restructuring Rental Amortization Schedule") and shall pay the
balance of any amount outstanding on the Expiry Date with interest to such
Expiry Date,
(v) [***] ("Deferred Deposit") on April 19, 1996 and for the next
succeeding three (3) Rent Dates thereafter (as specified on page 3 of
Exhibit B hereto -- "Restructuring Deposit Amortization Schedule").
Each such Deferred Rent payment and Deferred Deposit payment on and after
the dates set forth in clauses (iv) and (v) above, as the case may be, (i)
shall constitute a portion of Rent and Deposit, as the case may be, (ii)
shall be made
4
together with such installment of Rent or Deposit or other amount as shall
be otherwise due on each such Rent Date as provided in Exhibit D of the
Agreement and (iii) shall be made in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the Agreement. Lessee may satisfy its obligations to pay the
Deferred Rent and Deferred Deposit at any time by paying the portion of
such Deferred Rent and Deferred Deposit which constitutes principal,
together with the portion of such Deferred Rent and Deferred Deposit which
constitutes interest accrued and unpaid as of the date of payment, all as
reflected on Exhibit B to this Amendment.
(d) Lessor hereby consents to the terms and conditions and Lessee's
execution of the Fleet Hour Agreement between Lessee and Rolls-Royce Aero
Engine Services, Ltd (Rolls-Royce Ref. G2273/13.03.96) ("Fleet Hour
Agreement") in respect of the engines originally installed on the Xxxxxxxx
(XXX 00000 and 17668) and acknowledges that the Fleet Hour Agreement
constitutes an Aircraft Maintenance Agreement as defined in the Agreement;
provided, however, that if the amounts required to be paid under the Fleet
Hour Agreement are less than the Engine Maintenance Accrual required under
the Agreement, Lessee shall pay the difference to Lessor as Reserve Rate
under the Agreement in accordance therewith.
Execution of this Amendment shall not constitute a waiver of any
Rent payment defaults or of any other defaults which may have occurred and be
continuing or which may occur in the future. Lessor's agreement to forbear shall
terminate automatically if Lessee fails to fulfill any of the obligations set
forth in paragraph (c) or (d) of this Section 2 or if any Event of Default
occurs under the Agreement (other than an Event of Default to which this
forbearance agreement applies). For so long, and only so long as Lessor's
agreement to forbear has not terminated, and provided that the obligation set
forth in paragraph (d) of this Section 2 has been fulfilled, (I) Lessee shall be
entitled to exercise its rights and privileges under Articles 5.1.2(b), 5.1.3,
7.4.1 and 13.3 of the Agreement and (ii) Lessor shall be deemed to have elected
not the apply the Deposit in accordance with Section 1 of Appendix D of the
Agreement to payments of Rent and Deposit that are subject to amortization
pursuant to Section 2(c) of this Amendment.
3. Governing Law
This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the internal laws of the State of New York and without regard to any conflict of
law rules. This Amendment is being delivered in the State of New York. The terms
and conditions of Article 18 of the Agreement are incorporated herein by

1. Amendment of Lease. The Lease is hereby amended as follows:
(a) Section 1 of the Lease is amended by eliminating the
period at the end of Subsection 1.25 thereof, and by inserting in lieu thereof
the following clause:
"or such earlier date as may be specified by Lessor pursuant
to notice given in accordance with, and subject to the terms
of Section 16.10 hereof."
(b) Section 1.48 of the Lease is amended by deleting the

period at the end thereof and by inserting the following clause:
provided, however, that the deductible may be $500,000 (Dollars Five
Hundred Thousand) for each accident, but only if Lessee procures and

Beneficiary and/or the Lessor under each of the Leases identified on
Schedule 16.10 hereof (as those terms are defined therein) an
irrevocable letter of credit (the "Letter of Credit") in the face

Wachovia Bank or another banking institution reasonably acceptable

debis AirFinance B.V. containing the terms set forth in Schedule
11.1(a).1 of this Lease; provided, however, that Lessee may reduce

Lessee had net income (as determined in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles ("Net Income")) greater than the
amount for such prior year identified as "Net Income (1)" on
Schedule 11.1(a).2, but less than the amount for such prior year
identified as "Net Income (2)" on Schedule 11.1(a).2; and Lessee
shall not be required to maintain the Letter of Credit in any year
where Lessee's audited financial statements for the prior year show
that Lessee had Net Income for such prior year greater than the
amount for such prior year identified as "Net Income (2)" on
Schedule 11.1(a).2; and provided, further, that notwithstanding any
reduction or cancellation of the Letter of Credit in accordance with

year for reduction of the Letter of Credit or in any year in which
audited financials for Lessee for the immediately preceding year
have not been certified on or before April 15 of that year. For
purposes of determining the amount required for the Letter of Credit
in any year, reductions, if any, shall not be permitted until 30
days after receipt by debis AirFinance B.V. of the audited financial
statements of Lessee for the
-2-
prior year and, in the event that the Letter of Credit is to be
reinstated or increased in any year as aforedescribed, such Letter
of Credit shall be required on or before April 15 of such year. Any

entirety and by inserting in lieu thereof the following:

(i) Section 15.1(e) of the Lease is deleted in its entirety
and the following is inserted in lieu thereof:

under any lease, hire-purchase, conditional sale or credit
sale agreement for equipment having a casualty value in excess
of [***] and such default is not cured or waived within
the applicable grace period or five (5) Business Days
(whichever is greater); (ii) (regardless of the amount of
money involved), any event occurs which with or without notice
or lapse of time or both would constitute a default under any
agreement between Lessee and, or promissory note executed by
Lessee in favor of, (a) [***]; (b) Xxxx/Chilmark Fund, L.P.;
[***]; (e) any affiliate of any of the foregoing; unless such
default or event of default is cured or waived within the
applicable grace period or five (5) Business Days (whichever
is greater); or (iii) any indebtedness owed by Lessee or any
of its subsidiaries in an amount in excess of [***] is not
paid when due or becomes due or capable of being declared
due prior to the date when it would otherwise become due
provided, however, the failure of Lessee to pay amounts
approximating [***]
-3-
[***], shall not be deemed a Default or an Event of Default
hereunder."

31, 1997 from the Lessee to DASA Aircraft Finance XVI, B.V.
(each, a "Note" and collectively, the "Notes");
(p) if, prior to satisfaction of Lessee's obligations pursuant
to the Notes, Lessee shall make (i) any payment of principal
or interest on any debt owed by Lessee to Xxxx/Chilmark Fund,
L.P. or to any holder of equity in Lessee representing the
right to vote twenty percent (20%) or more of the stock in
Lessee on any matter presented for vote to the shareholders of
Lessee (an "Insider") or any affiliate of an Insider; or (ii)
any redemption of, or any dividend or distribution with
respect to, any shares of Lessee owned by an Insider or any
affiliate thereof."
(l) Section 15.2 is amended by deleting clause (i) of
paragraph (b) thereof in its entirety and inserting the following new clause (i)
in lieu thereof:
"(i) serving notice of such termination on Lessee specifying
the occurrence giving rise to such Event of Default or Events
of Default, provided that such notice shall be deemed to have
been served without the necessity of actual service and this
Lease shall terminate automatically without the necessity of
any service of notice thereof upon Lessee upon the occurrence
of any Event of Default described in paragraphs (a), (f), (g),
(h), (n) or (o) of Section 15.1 of this Lease; provided,
however, that actual service of notice of such termination on
Lessee shall be required where an Event of Default described
in paragraph (n) of Section 15.1 of the Lease has occurred
solely by reason of occurrence of an event of default under an
Other Aircraft Agreement or under a DASA Aircraft Agreement,
which event of default does not, under the terms of such Other
Aircraft Agreement or DASA Aircraft Agreement, result in
automatic termination of such Other Aircraft Agreement or such
DASA Aircraft Agreement."
-4-
(m) Article 16 of the Lease is amended by adding a new Section
16.10 as follows:
"(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Lease, Lessor may terminate this Lease by giving not less
than six (6) months' prior written notice of the termination
date to Lessee provided that in no event may Lessor choose a
termination date earlier than September 15, 1998 ("Lessor's
Termination Option") and the termination date specified in
such notice shall become the Expiry Date; provided, however,
that (subject to the following sentence) Lessor shall not be
entitled to exercise Lessor's Termination Option with respect
to this Lease where the same would result in the termination
of four (4) or more of the aircraft operating lease agreements
identified in Schedule 16.10 to the Lease in any twelve (12)
month period, taking into account the scheduled or actual
Expiry Date of each such aircraft operating lease agreement.
Nothing herein shall be construed to limit the Lessor's rights
upon the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default or upon
the termination of this Lease as a result thereof or upon the
expiration of any Lease in the absence of the exercise of
Lessor's Termination Option.
(b) Lessee shall in no event be liable for any costs,
expenses, liabilities, losses, damages or amounts incurred by
Lessor which arise solely from the Lessor exercising Lessor's
Termination Option hereunder such as the loss of any tax
benefit, or fees or penalties arising from the breakage of any
contract or agreement. Except as expressly provided in
subsection (c) below, Lessor shall in no event be liable for
any costs, expenses, liabilities, losses, damages or amounts
incurred by Lessee as a result of Lessor exercising Lessor's
Termination Option in accordance with this Section 16.10.
(c) Notwithstanding the terms of clause (b) above, if Lessor
exercises Lessor's Termination Option hereunder in accordance
with this Section 16.10, then Lessee shall be responsible for
performing all of its obligations under and in accordance with
the terms of this Article 16, subject to the following:
(i) the Lessor shall pay or cause to be paid to Lessee
for Lessee's application against the "C Check" completed
pursuant to Appendix E, Item 1(e), an amount equal to
the lesser of (x) $100,000 or (y) an amount equal to the
product of the full cost of the "C Check" completed by
Lessee pursuant to Appendix E, Item 1(e) on the Aircraft
multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
number of hours (including fractions of an hour)
remaining on the Aircraft until Lessee's next scheduled
"C Check" for the Aircraft (assuming
-5-
Lessor had not exercised Lessor's Termination Option
hereunder) and the denominator of which is 3000; and
(ii) for purposes of Section 7.4.1(b) and (c), any shop
visit required to meet the conditions of Appendix B
shall be deemed a "scheduled" shop visit."
(n) Section 18.6 of the Lease is amended by deleting the
firm of "Haight, Gardner, Poor & Xxxxxx, Attn: Xxxxx X.X. Xxxx, 000 Xxxxxxxx,
Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000" as agent for Lessor and by inserting in lieu thereof the new
agent for Lessor as follows: "Xxxxxxx, Calamari & Xxxxxxx, Attn: Xxxxx Xxxxx,
000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000".
(o) Appendix B to the Lease is hereby amended as
follows:
(i) The amount set forth as the "AGREED VALUE" is
deleted in its entirety and the amount of [***] is
substituted therefor.
(ii) The Amount set forth as "RENT" is deleted in its
entirety and the amount of [***] is substituted

its entirety and inserting the following in lieu thereof:
"1. Deposit. Lessee has paid to Lessor the amount set
forth on Schedule B.1 as a Deposit for the Aircraft prior to
January 31, 1997. Lessor has applied such Deposit (plus all
accrued interest thereon) to the Default Payments (as defined
in Section 6 of Amendment No. 1 to this Lease) and/or to
Default Payments (as defined in Section 6 of Amendment No. 1
to the Other Aircraft Agreements)."
(q) Schedule 16.10 attached to this Amendment is hereby
attached to the Lease as Schedule 16.10 thereto and is incorporated therein.
2. Waiver of Default. Lessor agrees that any Default or Event of
Default under Sections 15.1(a), 15.1(e), 15.1(g) or 15.1(o) of the Lease (prior
to the amendment of any such Sections hereunder) which occurred prior to the
date of this Amendment is hereby deemed to have been cured by Lessee and Lessor
waives any rights or remedies it may have had with respect to the occurrence of
any such Default or Event of Default.
