Notwithstanding any such use or application by the Lessor, the Lessee shall remain in default under this Agreement until the full amount owed by the Lessee, including interest accrued thereon pursuant to Clause 5.9, shall have been paid to the Lessor.

Each Rental Period will end on the date immediately preceding the next succeeding Rent Date except that if a Rental Period would otherwise overrun the Expiry Date, it will end on the Expiry Date. 5.3 BASIC RENT (a) TIME OF PAYMENT: the Lessee will pay to the Lessor or its order Basic Rent in advance on each Rent Date. Payment must be initiated adequately in advance of the Rent Date to ensure that the Lessor receives credit for the payment on the Rent Date. (b) AMOUNT: The Basic Rent payable in respect of each Rental Period will be as follows: (i) The Basic Rent payable in respect of the first Rental Period will be the product of $113,500 multiplied by a fraction (1) the numerator of which is the number of days from and including the Delivery Date to but excluding the next succeeding Rent Date and (2) the denominator of which is the number of days in the calendar month immediately preceding the calendar month in which such next succeeding Rent Date occurs. (ii) The Basic Rent payable in respect of each subsequent Rental Period will be the amount of $113,500. -23- 5.4 PAYMENTS (a) All payments of Rent by the Lessee to the Lessor under this Agreement will be made for value on the due date, for the full amount due, in Dollars and in same day funds, settled through the New York Clearing House System or such other funds as may for the time being be customary for the settlement in New York City of payments in Dollars by telegraphic transfer to the account of the Lender at Citibank, N.A., New York, New York, ABA No. 021000089, Account No. 00067512, reference "Aloha Airlines/N802AL-N804AL".

(b) All Taxes (other than Lessor Taxes) in respect of payments under this Agreement shall be for the account of the Lessee. (c) If the Lessee is compelled by law to make payment to the Lessor under or in connection with this Agreement subject to any Tax and the Lessor does not actually receive for its own benefit on the due date a net amount equal to the full amount provided for under this Agreement (other than Lessor Taxes that Lessee is compelled by law to deduct or withhold), the Lessee will pay all necessary additional amounts to ensure receipt by the Lessor of the full amount (other than Lessor Taxes that Lessee is compelled by law to deduct or withhold) so provided for. 5.6 TAXATION (a) The Lessee will on demand pay and indemnify the Lessor and the Lender against all Taxes (other than Lessor Taxes) levied or imposed against or upon the Lessor, the Lender or the Lessee and relating to or attributable to the Lessee, this Agreement or the Aircraft directly or indirectly in connection with the importation, exportation, registration, ownership, leasing, sub-leasing, purchase, delivery, possession, use, operation, repair, maintenance, overhaul, transportation, landing, storage, presence or redelivery of the Aircraft or any part thereof or any rent, receipts, insurance proceeds, income or other amounts arising therefrom. -24- (b) If the Lessor or the Lender shall, based upon its own reasonable interpretation of any relevant laws or regulations, realize any Tax savings (by way of refund, deduction, credit or otherwise) in respect of any amount with respect to which the Lessee shall have made a payment (or increased payment) pursuant to Clause 5.5 or 5.8 or shall have indemnified the Lessor or the Lender pursuant to sub-clause (a) above, or in respect of the occurrence or transaction which gave rise to such payment or indemnification, and such Tax savings shall not have been taken into account previously in calculating any indemnity payment made by the Lessee, then the Lessor or the Lender (as the case may be) shall, to the extent that it can do so without prejudice to the retention of the relevant savings and subject to the Lessee's obligations to repay such amount to the Lessor or the Lender (as applicable) if the relevant savings are subsequently disallowed or canceled, pay to the Lessee such amount as the Lessor or the Lender (as the case may be) shall in its opinion have concluded to be the amount of such Tax savings (together with, in the case of a refund, any interest received thereon); provided however that neither the Lessor nor the Lender shall be obliged to make any payment to the Lessee pursuant to this sub-clause (b) to the extent that the amount of any Tax savings in respect of which such payment is to be made would exceed the aggregate amount of all prior payments made by the Lessee to, on behalf of or as indemnification of the Lessor or the Lender under this Agreement for Taxes less the amount of all prior payments made pursuant to this sub-clause (b) in respect of such Tax savings. The Lessee acknowledges that nothing contained in this sub-clause (b) shall interfere with the right of the Lessor or the Lender to arrange its tax affairs in whatsoever proper manner it thinks fit (or give the Lessee any right to investigate, or impose any obligation on the Lessor or the Lender to disclose, the same) and, in particular, neither the Lessor nor the Lender shall be under any obligation to claim any Tax savings in priority to any other savings available to it; provided, that subject to the foregoing Lessor shall use reasonable good faith diligence to realize Tax savings as described above. 5.7 INFORMATION If the Lessee is required by any applicable law, or by any third party, to deliver any report or return in connection with any Taxes, the Lessee will duly complete the same and, in particular, will state therein that the Lessee is exclusively responsible for the use and operation of the Aircraft and for the Taxes (other than Lessor Taxes) arising therefrom, and the Lessee will, on request, supply a copy of the report or return to the Lessor. If Lessee requires any information or cooperation from Lessor or Lender in order to satisfy its obligations as set forth above, Lessor and Lender shall promptly furnish such information or cooperation as Lessee may reasonably request upon written request by Lessee. If actual notice is given by any taxing authority to Lessor that a report or return is required to be filed with respect to any Taxes (other than Lessor Taxes), the Lessor shall promptly notify Lessee of such required report or return. 5.8 TAXATION OF INDEMNITY PAYMENTS -25- (a) If and to the extent that any sums payable to the Lessor or the Lender by the Lessee under this Agreement by way of indemnity are insufficient, by reason of any Taxes payable in respect of those sums, for the Lessor or the Lender to discharge the corresponding liability to the relevant third party (including any taxation authority), or to reimburse the Lessor or the Lender for the cost incurred by it to a third party (including any taxation authority) the Lessee will pay to the Lessor or the Lender (as the case may be) such sum as will, after the tax liability has been fully satisfied, leave the Lessor or the Lender (as the case may be) with the same amount as it would have been entitled to receive in the absence of that liability, together with interest on the amount of the deficit at the Default Rate in respect of the period commencing on the date on which the payment of taxation is finally due until payment by the Lessee (both before and after judgment). (b) If and to the extent that any sums constituting (directly or indirectly) an indemnity to the Lessor or the Lender but paid by the Lessee to any person other than the Lessor or the Lender are treated as taxable in the hands of the Lessor or the Lender, the Lessee will pay to the Lessor or the Lender such sum as will, after the tax liability has been fully satisfied, indemnify the Lessor or the Lender to the same extent as it would have been indemnified in the absence of such liability, together with interest on the amount payable by lessee under this sub-clause at the Default Rate in respect of the period commencing on the date on which the payment of taxation is finally due until payment by the Lessee (both before and after judgment). 5.9 DEFAULT INTEREST If the Lessee fails to pay any amount payable under this Agreement on the due date, the Lessee will pay on demand from time to time to the Lessor or the Lender (as the case may be) interest (both before and after judgment) on the amount, from the due date to the day of payment in full by the Lessee to the Lessor or the Lender, at the prime rate for the time being charged by Citibank, N.A. plus 3.0% (the "DEFAULT RATE"). All such interest will be compounded monthly and calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and on a 360 day year. 5.10 CONTEST If written claim is made against Lessor or Lender for or with respect to any Taxes (other than Lessor Taxes), Lessor shall, and shall cause Lender to, promptly notify the Lessee. If reasonably requested by the Lessee in writing within 30 days after such notification, Lessor shall or shall cause Lender to, upon receipt of indemnity satisfactory to Lessor or Lender, as the case may be, and at the expense of the Lessee (including all costs, expenses, losses, legal and accountants' fees and disbursements, penalties and interest), in good faith contest or to the extent permissible by law allow Lessee to contest in Lessee's, the Lessor's or the Lender's -26- name, the validity, applicability or amount of such Taxes by either (i) resisting payment thereof if practicable and permitted by applicable law, or (ii) if payment is made, using reasonable efforts to obtain a refund thereof in appropriate administrative and judicial proceedings, and in the contest of any such claim by Lessor or Lender, Lessor shall, and shall cause Lender to, apprise the Lessee of all material developments with respect to such contest, shall forward copies of all material submissions made in such contest and shall materially comply in good faith with any reasonable request concerning the conduct of any such contest; provided, however, the Lessor or the Lender (as the case may be) will not be obliged to take any such action: (a) which the Lessor or the Lender (as the case may be) considers, in its reasonable discretion, may prejudice it; or (b) which the Lessor or the Lender (as the case may be) reasonably considers does not have a reasonable prospect of success; or (c) for which the Lessee has not made adequate provision to the reasonable satisfaction of the Lessor or the Lender (as the case may be) in respect of the expense concerned; or (d) if such action gives rise to any material likelihood of the Aircraft or any interest therein being sold, forfeited or otherwise lost or of criminal liability on the part of the Lessor or the Lender. If Lessor or Lender, in accordance with the foregoing, determines to pay such Taxes and seek a refund, Lessee will either pay such Taxes on Lessor's or Lender's behalf and pay Lessor or Lender, as the case may be, any amount due with respect to such payment or will promptly reimburse Lessor for such Taxes. If Lessor shall obtain a refund of all or any part of such Taxes paid by the Lessee, Lessor shall pay the Lessee the amount of such refund; provided that such amount shall not be payable before such time as the Lessee shall have made all payments or indemnities to Lessor then due with respect to Taxes and so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing. If in addition to such refund Lessor shall receive an amount representing interest, attorneys fees or any other amount on the amount of such refund, the Lessee shall be paid that proportion of such interest, attorneys fees or any other amount which is fairly attributable to the Taxes paid by the Lessee prior to the receipt of such refund. Lessor and/or Lender shall not enter into a settlement or other compromise with respect to, or otherwise concede, any claim by a taxing authority on account of Taxes being contested by Lessee pursuant to this Clause 5.10 without the written consent of Lessee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, unless Lessor waives its right and the right of Lender to be indemnified by Lessee with respect to such claim (but not with respect to any future claims). 5.11 ABSOLUTE -27- The Lessee's obligations under this Agreement are absolute and unconditional irrespective of any contingency whatever including (but not limited to): (a) any right of offset, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which either party to this Agreement may have against the other; (b) any unavailability of the Aircraft for any reason, including a requisition of the Aircraft or any prohibition or interruption of, interference with or other restriction against the Lessee's use, operation or possession of the Aircraft; (c) any lack or invalidity of title or any other defect in title, airworthiness, merchantability, fitness for any purpose, condition, design or operation of any kind or nature of the Aircraft for any particular use or trade, or for registration or documentation under the laws of any relevant jurisdiction, or any Total Loss in respect of or any damage to the Aircraft; (d) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, dissolution, liquidation or similar proceedings by or against the Lessor or the Lessee; (e) any invalidity, unenforceability or lack of due authorization of, or other defect in, this Agreement; or (f) any other cause which, but for this provision, would or might otherwise have the effect of terminating or in any way affecting any obligation of the Lessee under this Agreement; provided always, however, that this Clause 5.11 shall be without prejudice to the Lessee's right to claim damages and other relief from the courts in the event of any breach by the Lessor of its obligations under this Agreement, or in the event that, as a result of any lack or invalidity of title to the Aircraft on the part of the Lessor, the Lessee is deprived of its possession of the Aircraft. 6. MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTIES 6.1 ASSIGNMENT Notwithstanding this Agreement and subject to the rights of the Lender pursuant to the Assignment, the Lessor will remain entitled to the benefit of each warranty, express or implied, and any unexpired customer and/or product support given or provided in respect of the Aircraft, any Engine or Part by any manufacturer, vendor, maintenance performer, subcontractor or supplier. Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Lessor hereby authorizes the Lessee to pursue any claim thereunder in relation to defects affecting the Aircraft, any Engine or Part and the Lessee agrees diligently to pursue any such -28- claim which arises at its own cost. The Lessee will notify the Lessor promptly upon becoming aware of any such claim. The Lessor will provide such assistance to the Lessee in making a claim under any such warranties or customer and/or product support as the Lessee may reasonably request, and, if requested by the Lessee and at the Lessee's expense, will pursue a claim in its own name where the relevant manufacturer, vendor, maintenance performer, subcontractor or supplier has refused to acknowledge the Lessee's right to pursue that claim. 6.2 PROCEEDS Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all proceeds of any such claim as is referred to in Clause 6.1 and which exceed $100,000 will be paid direct to the Lender, but if and to the extent that such claim relates: (a) to defects affecting the Aircraft which the Lessee has rectified; or (b) to compensation for loss of use of the Aircraft, an Engine or any Part during the Term; or (c) to costs incurred by the Lessee in pursuing such claim (whether or not proceeds of such claim are payable to the Lessee); and provided no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the proceeds will be promptly paid to the Lessee by the Lender but, in the case of (a), only on receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Lessor and the Lender that the Lessee has rectified the relevant defect. 6.3 PARTS Except to the extent the Lessor otherwise agrees in a particular case, the Lessee will procure that all engines, components, furnishings or equipment provided by the manufacturer, vendor, maintenance performer, subcontractor or supplier as a replacement for a defective Engine or Part pursuant to the terms of any warranty or customer and/or product support arrangement comply with Clause 8.13(a), are installed on the Aircraft promptly and that title thereto vests in the Lessor in accordance with Clause 8.17(a). On installation those items will be deemed to be an Engine or Part, as applicable. 6.4 AGREEMENT To the extent any warranties or customer and/or product support relating to the Aircraft are made available under an agreement between any manufacturer, vendor, maintenance performer, subcontractor or supplier and the Lessee, this Clause 6 is subject to that agreement. However the Lessee will: -29- (a) pay the proceeds of any claim thereunder that exceed $100,000 to the Lender to be applied pursuant to Clause 6.2 and, pending such payment, will hold the claim and the proceeds on trust for the Lender; and (b) take all such steps as are necessary and requested by the Lessor at the end of the Term to ensure the benefit of any of those warranties or customer and/or product support which have not expired are vested in the Lessor (but subject to the rights of the Lender under the Mortgage). 7. LESSOR'S COVENANTS AND DISCLAIMERS 7.1 QUIET ENJOYMENT Provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, none of the Lessor, its successors and assigns, the Lender or any Person claiming by, through or on account of any of such parties will interfere with the quiet use, possession and enjoyment of the Aircraft by the Lessee. 7.2 MAINTENANCE CONTRIBUTION (a) Provided no Default has occurred and is continuing, upon the performance by Lessee of "Qualifying Work" (as hereinafter defined) relating to any airworthiness directive, the Lessor will pay to the Lessee, by way of contribution to the cost of maintenance of the Aircraft, an amount equal to the product of (a) the amount by which the Actual Cost of the Qualifying Work for such airworthiness directive exceeds $225,000, multiplied by (b) a fraction the numerator of which is 60 minus the number of months (rounded to the nearest whole number of months) from the date of the completion of such Qualifying Work until the scheduled Expiry Date and the denominator is 60. (b) "Qualifying Work" means maintenance work performed on the Aircraft solely in order to comply fully with airworthiness directives issued by the Aviation Authority (whether or not such airworthiness directives were issued before or after the Delivery Date) on a terminating action basis, and excluding work performed for any other purpose, such as compliance with airworthiness directives by means of repetitive inspections, recording compliance work in the Aircraft Documents and all other maintenance work.

(b) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Lessee may remove any Equipment Change if it can be removed from the Aircraft without diminishing or impairing the value, utility, condition or airworthiness of the Aircraft. -45- 8.17 TITLE TO ENGINES AND PARTS (a) Title to all engines and parts installed on the Aircraft, whether by way of replacement as the result of an Equipment Change or otherwise (except those installed pursuant to Clause 8.13(b) or Clause 8.15) will on installation, without further act, vest in the Lessor subject to this Agreement free and clear of all Security Interests. The Lessee will at its own expense take all such steps and execute, and procure the execution of, all such instruments that are necessary to ensure that title so passes to the Lessor and is subject to the Security Interest created by the Mortgage according to all applicable laws. At any time when requested by the Lessor, the Lessee will provide evidence to the Lessor's reasonable satisfaction (including the provision, if required, to the Lessor of one of more legal opinions) that title has so passed to the Lessor and is subject to the Security Interest created by the Mortgage. (b) The Lessor may require the Lessee to remove any Equipment Change and to restore the Aircraft to its condition prior to that Equipment Change. (c) Except as referred to in Clause 8.16(b), any Engine or Part at any time removed from the Aircraft will remain the property of the Lessor until a replacement has been made in accordance with this Agreement and until title to that replacement has passed, according to applicable laws, to the Lessor subject to this Agreement free of all Security Interests, whereupon title to the Engine or Part will, provided no Default has occurred and is continuing, pass to the Lessee free of Lessor Liens. 8.18 THIRD PARTIES The Lessee shall procure that no person having possession of the Aircraft during the Term (other than the Lessor or the Lender) will act in any manner inconsistent with the Lessee's obligations under this Agreement and that all such persons shall comply with those obligations as if references to "Lessee" included a separate reference to those persons. 9. INSURANCE 9.1 INSURANCES The Lessee will maintain in full force and effect during the Term insurances in respect of the Aircraft in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Lessor (the "INSURANCES") through such brokers and with such insurers and having such deductibles and being subject to such exclusions as are usual and customary in the worldwide aviation insurance marketplace for air carriers operating similar equipment who are similarly situated with Lessee. The Insurances will be effected either on a direct basis with insurers of recognized standing who normally participate in aviation insurances in the leading international insurance markets and led by reputable underwriters approved by the Lessor and the Lender, -46- such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. The Lessor acknowledges and confirms that the current deductibles and exclusions, together with the existing brokers and insurers, in respect of the insurances maintained by Lessee on the date of the Purchase Agreement are acceptable to it and the Lender. 9.2 REQUIREMENTS The Lessor's current requirements as to required Insurances are as specified in this Clause and in Part I of Schedule 4. Except for the amount of the Agreed Value, the Minimum Liability Coverage and the deductible under Lessee's hull and war risk insurance policies, the Lessor may from time to time stipulate such other requirements for the Insurances as the Lessor reasonably considers necessary to ensure that the scope and level of cover is maintained in accordance with the then prevailing industry practice in relation to aircraft of the same type as the Aircraft and in relation to operators of similar standing to the Lessee. In the event that the Lessor proposes any such stipulation, it shall notify the Lessee accordingly and the Lessor and/or its brokers will then consult in good faith with the Lessee and the Lessee's brokers (as for the time being approved by the Lessor) with regard to such proposed stipulation. If, following the consultation, the Lessor is satisfied that the stipulation should be made, the Lessee shall then comply with the stipulated requirements. 9.3 INSURANCE COVENANTS The Lessee shall: (a) ensure that all legal requirements as to insurance of the Aircraft, any Engine or any Part that may from time to time be imposed by the laws of the State of Registration or any jurisdiction to, from or over which the Aircraft may be flown, in so far as they affect or concern the operation of the Aircraft, are complied with and, in particular, those requirements compliance with which is necessary to ensure that: (i) the Aircraft does not become subject to detention or forfeiture; (ii) the Insurances remain valid and in full force and effect; and (iii) the interests of the Indemnitees in the Insurances and the Aircraft or any Part are not thereby prejudiced; (b) not use, cause or permit the Aircraft, any Engine or any Part to be used for any purpose or in any manner not covered by the Insurances or outside any geographical limit imposed by the Insurances; (c) comply with the terms and conditions of each policy of the Insurances and not do, consent or agree to any act or omission that: -47- (i) invalidates or may reasonably be expected to invalidate the Insurances; (ii) renders or may reasonably be expected to render void or voidable the whole or any part of any of the Insurances; or (iii) brings any particular liability within the scope of an exclusion or exception to the Insurances; (d) not take out without the prior written approval of the Lessor any insurance in respect of the Aircraft other than those of the type required under this Agreement unless relating solely to hull total loss, business interruption, engine break-down, profit commission and deductible risk; (e) commence renewal procedures at least 30 days prior to the expiration of any of the Insurances and provide to the Lessor and the Lender: (i) if requested by the Lessor, a written status report of renewal negotiations 14 days prior to each expiration date; (ii) telefaxed confirmation of completion of renewal prior to each expiration date; and (iii) a certificate of insurance and broker's letter of undertaking substantially in the form set out in Parts 2 and 3 of Schedule 4, detailing the coverage and confirming the insurers' agreement to the specified insurance requirements of this Agreement within seven days after each renewal date; (f) provide to the Lessor and the Lender copies of those documents evidencing the Insurances which the Lessor and the Lender may reasonably request; (g) on request, provide to the Lessor and the Lender evidence that the Insurance premiums have been paid; (h) not make any modification or alteration to the Insurances material and adverse to the interests of any of the Indemnitees; (i) be responsible for any deductible under the Insurances; and (j) provide any other insurance related information, or assistance, in respect of the Insurances as the Lessor may reasonably request. 9.4 FAILURE TO INSURE -48- If the Lessee fails to maintain the Insurances in compliance with this Agreement, each of the Indemnitees will be entitled but not obligated (without prejudice to any other rights of the Lessor under this Agreement): (a) to pay the premiums due or to effect and maintain insurances satisfactory to it or otherwise remedy the Lessee's failure in such manner (including to effect and maintain an "owner's interest" policy) as it considers appropriate. Any sums so expended by it will become immediately due and payable by the Lessee to the Lessor on demand (such demand being made as soon as reasonably practicable following the incurring of such expenditure), together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of expenditure by it up to the date of reimbursement by the Lessee (before and after any judgment); and (b) at any time while such failure is continuing to require the Aircraft to remain at any airport or to proceed to and remain at any airport designated by it until the failure is remedied to its reasonable satisfaction. 9.5 CONTINUING INDEMNITY The Lessor may require the Lessee to effect and to maintain insurance after the Expiry Date with respect to its liability under the indemnities in Clause 10 for such period as the Lessor may reasonably require (but in any event not more than three years) providing for each Indemnitee to be named as additional insured. The Lessee's obligation under this Clause 9.5 shall not be affected by the Lessee ceasing to be lessee of the Aircraft or any of the Indemnitees ceasing to have any interest in respect of the Aircraft. 9.6 APPLICATION OF INSURANCE PROCEEDS As between the Lessor and the Lessee: (a) All insurance payments, up to the Agreed Value, received as the result of a Total Loss occurring during the Term will be paid to the Lender. (b) All insurance proceeds in respect of any damage or loss to the Aircraft, any Engine or any Part occurring during the Term not constituting a Total Loss and involving insurance proceeds in excess of the Damage Notification Threshold will be paid to the Lender and applied in payment (or to reimburse the Lessee) for repairs or replacement property upon the Lessor being reasonably satisfied that the repairs or replacement have been effected in accordance with this Agreement. Insurance proceeds in amounts below the Damage Notification Threshold may be paid by the insurer directly to the Lessee. Any balance remaining may be retained by the Lessee. -49- (c) All insurance proceeds in respect of third party liability will be paid to the relevant third party. (d) Notwithstanding Clauses 9.6(a) and (b), if at the time of the payment of any such insurance proceeds a Default has occurred and is continuing all such proceeds will be paid to or retained by the Lender to be applied toward payment of any amounts that may be or become payable by the Lessee in such order as the Lessor and the Lender see fit or as the Lessor and the Lender may elect. In the event that the Lessee remedies any such Default to the reasonable satisfaction of the Lessor, the Lessor shall procure that all such insurance proceeds then held by the Lender in excess of the amounts (if any) applied by the Lessor in accordance with this sub-clause (d) shall be paid promptly to the Lessee. 10. INDEMNITY 10.1 GENERAL The Lessee shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnitees from and against any and all claims, proceedings, losses, liabilities, suits, judgments, costs, expenses, penalties or fines (each a "CLAIM") regardless of when the same is made or incurred, whether during or after the Term (but not before): (a) that may at any time be suffered or incurred directly or indirectly as a result of or connected with possession, delivery, performance, management, registration, control, maintenance, condition, service, repair, overhaul, leasing, sub-leasing, use, operation or return of the Aircraft, any Engine or Part (either in the air or on the ground) whether or not the Claim may be attributable to any defect in the Aircraft, any Engine or any Part or to its design, testing, use or otherwise, and regardless of when the same arises or whether it arises out of or is attributable to any act or omission, negligent or otherwise, of any Indemnitee; (b) that arise out of any act or omission that invalidates or that renders voidable any of the Insurances; (c) that may at any time be suffered or incurred 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, copyright, trademark, design or other proprietary right or a breach of any obligation of confidentiality owed to any person, but excluding any Claim to the extent that: (1) it arises directly as a result of the wilful misconduct or gross negligence of an Indemnitee; -50- (2) it arises directly as a result of a breach by the Lessor of its express obligations under this Agreement or as a result of a representation or warranty given by the Lessor in this Agreement not being true and correct at the date when, or when deemed to have been, given or made; (3) it constitutes a Lessor Tax or Lessor Lien; 4) it represents a Tax or loss of tax benefits (the Lessee's liabilities for which, to the extent thereof, are set out in Clauses 5.5, 5.6 and 5.8); (5) it constitutes a cost or expense that is required to be borne by the Lessor in accordance with any other provision of this Agreement; (6) it results from any disposition not caused by Lessee of all or any part of Lessor's rights, title or interest in or to the Aircraft or under this Agreement, unless such disposition occurs as a consequence of an Event of Default; (7) it is attributable to an event occurring after the Term unless the Claim results from or arises out of an act or omission by the Lessee, or any circumstance existing, during the Term; or (8) it is brought after the Term and relates to a claimed patent infringement by the Manufacturer. 10.2 MITIGATION (a) The Lessor agrees that it shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after it becomes aware of any circumstances that would, or would reasonably be expected to, become the subject of a claim for indemnification pursuant to Clause 10.1, notify the Lessee in writing accordingly. The Lessor (and any other Indemnitee seeking indemnification, as the case may be) and the Lessee shall then consult with one another in good faith in order to determine what action (if any) may reasonably be taken to avoid or mitigate such Claim. The Lessee shall have the right to take all reasonable action (on behalf and, if necessary, in the name of the Lessor or such other Indemnitee) in order to resist, defend or settle (provided such settlement is accompanied by payment) any claims by third parties giving rise to such Claim, provided always that the Lessee shall not be entitled to take any such action unless adequate provision, reasonably satisfactory to the Lessor and such other Indemnitee, shall have been made in respect of the third party claim and the costs thereof. The Lessee or, if the Claim is covered by Lessee's Insurances, the Lessee's insurers shall be entitled to select any counsel to represent it or them, the Lessor and such other Indemnitee in connection with any such action, subject in the case of Lessee to the approval of the Lessor and such other Indemnitee -51- (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) and any action taken by the Lessee shall be on a full indemnity basis in respect of the Lessor and such other Indemnitee. (b) Any sums paid by the Lessee to the Lessor or any Indemnitee in respect of any Claim pursuant to Clause 10.1 shall be paid subject to the condition that, in the event that the Lessor or such Indemnitee is subsequently reimbursed in respect of that Claim by any other person, the Lessor or such Indemnitee shall, provided no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, promptly pay to the Lessee an amount equal to the sum paid to it by the Lessee, including any interest on such amount to the extent attributable thereto and received by the Lessor or such Indemnitee, less any Tax payable by the Lessor or such Indemnitee in respect of such reimbursement. 10.3 DURATION The indemnities contained in this Agreement will survive and continue in full force after the Expiry Date. 11. EVENTS OF LOSS 11.1 TOTAL LOSS (a) PRE-DELIVERY: If a Total Loss occurs prior to Delivery, this Agreement will immediately terminate and, except as expressly stated in this Agreement, neither party will have any further obligation or liability under this Agreement except that the Lessor will rebate to the Lessee the Security Deposit (if theretofore paid pursuant to Clause 5.1) or, as the case may be, return the Letter of Credit to the Lessee. (b) POST-DELIVERY: If a Total Loss occurs after Delivery, the Lessee will pay the Agreed Value to the Lender no later than 60 days after the Total Loss Date (the "SETTLEMENT DATE") unless the Aircraft is restored to the Lessor or the Lessee within that period (or, in the case of a Total Loss coming within paragraph (c) of the definition of Total Loss and involving the loss of the Lessor's title to the Aircraft, if both the Aircraft and the Lessor's title thereto are restored to the Lessor or, in the case of the Aircraft, to the Lessee and the Lender's rights under the Mortgage are fully restored). The receipt by the Lender of the insurance proceeds in respect of the Total Loss on or prior to the Settlement Date shall discharge the Lessee from its obligation to pay the Agreed Value to the Lessor pursuant to this sub-clause (b), provided such proceeds are not less than the Agreed Value. In the event that the insurance proceeds are paid initially to the Lessee and not to the Lender, they may be retained by the Lessee if the Lessee shall have paid the Agreed Value to the Lender, otherwise the Lessee shall pay the Agreed Value to the Lender not later than the next Business Day following receipt by the Lessee of such proceeds. In the event that the Lessee pays the Agreed Value to the Lessor in accordance with this sub-clause (b), the Lessor shall promptly assign to the -52- Lessee its rights under the Insurances to receive the insurance proceeds in respect of the Total Loss to the extent that such proceeds shall not have been paid to the Lessee. Subject to the rights of any insurers or other third parties, upon irrevocable payment in full to the Lessor of that amount and all other amounts that may be or become payable to the Lessor under this Agreement, the Lessor shall: (i) without recourse or warranty (except as to the absence of Lessor Liens), and without further act, be deemed to have transferred to the Lessee all of the Lessor's rights to any Engines or Parts not installed when the Total Loss occurred, all on an "as-is where is" basis, and shall, at the Lessee's expense, execute and deliver such bills of sale and other documents and instruments as the Lessee may reasonably request to evidence (on the public record or otherwise) the transfer and the vesting of the Lessor's rights in such Engines and Parts in the Lessee, free and clear of all rights of the Lessor and any Lessor Liens; and (ii) pay to Lessee, as a rebate of prepaid Basic Rent, and amount equal to the product of (1) one month's Basic Rent multiplied by (2) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days remaining in the then current Rental Period and the denominator of which is the number of days in the then current Rental Period. (c) ENGINE LOSS: Upon the occurrence of an Engine Loss (including, for the avoidance of doubt, at a time when the Engine is not installed on the Airframe) in circumstances in which there has not also occurred a Total Loss, the Lessee shall give the Lessor and the Lender written notice promptly upon becoming aware of the same and shall (unless the Lessor has received the insurance proceeds relating to such Engine Loss), within 60 days after the Engine Loss Date, convey or cause to be conveyed to the Lessor, as replacement for such Engine, title to a replacement engine that is in the same or better operating condition, has the same or greater value and utility as the lost Engine and that complies with the conditions set out in Clause 8.13(a). The Lessee shall, at the time of such conveyance, comply in all respects with Clause 8.17(a) so that the replacement engine becomes an Engine, whereupon the leasing of the replaced Engine the subject of the Engine Loss shall cease and title to such replaced Engine shall (subject to any salvage rights of insurers) vest in the Lessee pursuant to Clause 8.17(c), free of Lessor Liens. If the Lessor or the Lender subsequently receives any insurance proceeds relating to such Engine Loss, the Lessor shall promptly remit such proceeds or cause such proceeds to be remitted to the Lessee. No Engine Loss with respect to any Engine that is replaced in accordance with the provisions of this Clause 11.1 (c) shall result in any increase or decrease in Basic Rent or the Agreed Value. 11.2 REQUISITION During any requisition for use or hire of the Aircraft, any Engine or Part that does not constitute a Total Loss: -53- (a) the Basic Rent and Supplemental Rent payable under this Agreement will not be suspended or abated either in whole or in part, and the Lessee will not be released from any of its other obligations under this Agreement (other than operational obligations with which the Lessee is unable to comply solely by virtue of the requisition); and (b) so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, the Lessee will be entitled to any compensation payable by the requisitioning authority in respect of the Term. The Lessee will, as soon as practicable after the end of any such requisition (with the Term being extended if and to the extent that the period of requisition continues beyond the scheduled Expiry Date), cause the Aircraft to be put into the condition required by this Agreement. The Lessor will be entitled to all compensation payable by the requisitioning authority in respect of any change in the structure, state or condition of the Aircraft arising during the period of requisition, and the Lessor will apply such compensation in reimbursing the Lessee for the cost of complying with its obligations under this Agreement in respect of any such change, but so that, if any Default has occurred and is continuing, the Lessor may apply the compensation in or towards settlement of any amounts owing by the Lessee under this Agreement. All such sums shall be held by the Lender. 12. RETURN OF AIRCRAFT 12.1 REDELIVERY On the Expiry Date or termination of the leasing of the Aircraft under this Agreement, the Lessee shall, unless a Total Loss has occurred, at its expense, redeliver the Aircraft and Aircraft Documents to the Lessor at the Redelivery Location or such other airport as is mutually acceptable to Lessor and Lessee in a condition complying with this Clause 12 and Schedule 3, free and clear of all Security Interests and Permitted Liens (other than the Lessor Liens). 12.2 FINAL CHECKS Immediately prior to return of the Aircraft, Lessee shall perform the following: (a) Lessee shall perform (or have performed by an Agreed Maintenance Performer) a full and complete zonal, systems and structural check ("C" or its equivalent), including the corresponding lower checks ("A" and "B" or equivalent) and any other maintenance and inspections tasks that are a part thereof, all in accordance with the Agreed Maintenance Program. At return, the Airframe will have zero Flight Hours since such "C" check, except for the acceptance flights and the ferry flight to the Redelivery Location. Lessee will also weigh the Aircraft. Any discrepancies revealed during such inspection will be corrected in accordance with Manufacturer's maintenance and repair manuals or FAA-approved data. Lessee shall also perform during such check, to the -54- extent it is able, any other work reasonably required by Lessor (and not otherwise required under this Agreement) so long as such work does not prevent Lessee from returning the Aircraft on the Expiry Date, and Lessor shall reimburse Lessee for such work at Lessee's preferred customer rates. (b) Lessee shall perform (or have performed by an Agreed Maintenance Performer) an internal and external corrosion inspection in accordance with the manufacturer's corrosion prevention and control program ("CPCP") specified for the model type and correct any discrepancies in accordance with the recommendations of the manufacturer and the manufacturer's structural repair manual ("SRM"). In addition, all inspected areas will be properly treated with corrosion inhibitor as recommended by manufacturer. (c) If Lessee performed any structural inspections or tasks on a sampling basis but did not perform such inspections on the Aircraft, such work shall also be performed on the Aircraft. (d) Lessee shall perform a videotape borescope inspection of the low pressure and high pressure compressors and the turbine area of the Engines. All items beyond the applicable Engine manufacturer's maintenance manual limits will be rectified at Lessee's sole cost and expense. No Engine win be "on watch" for any reason requiring special or out of sequence inspection. (e) In accordance with the applicable maintenance manual, Lessee shall perform a maximum power assurance run and condition, acceleration and bleed valve scheduling checks on the Engines. Lessee will record and evaluate the Engine performance, with Lessor and/or its representative entitled to be present. The performance and all operating parameters of each Engine will be within the limits specified in the Engine manufacturer's maintenance manual. (f) Lessee shall have removed and blended all external and interior markings. (g) If the Engine historical and technical records and the condition trend monitoring data of any Engine or the APU indicate an abnormal acceleration in the rate of deterioration in the performance of such Engine or APU, Lessee shall correct such conditions causing the accelerated rate of deterioration. 12.3 FINAL INSPECTION (a) During the 15 days prior to redelivery of the Aircraft, the Lessee will make the Aircraft available to the Lessor and the Lender for inspection ("FINAL INSPECTION") in order to verify that the condition of the Aircraft complies with this Agreement. The Final Inspection will be long enough to permit the Lessor and the Lender to inspect, at their -55- own cost, the Aircraft Documents, the Aircraft and uninstalled Parts and the Engines. The Lessor and the Lender shall attend and conduct the Final Inspection diligently and, without limiting their right to conduct the full Final Inspection permitted by this Agreement, will cooperate with the Lessee in order to complete the Final Inspection as soon as reasonably practical. (b) The Lessor and the Lender shall also be entitled, as part of the Final Inspection, to require the Lessee to perform an acceptance flight of up to three hours at the Lessee's cost (with the Lessor's and the Lender's representatives as on-board observers) and such further acceptance flights as may be necessary in the event that the first or subsequent flights do not confirm that the Aircraft complies with the requirements of this Agreement. (c) At the request of Lessor, Lessee shall perform "bridging" maintenance procedures for the purpose of standardizing the Aircraft to the maintenance program of any subsequent operator of the Aircraft; provided, however, that Lessor shall pay to Lessee the Actual Cost of all "bridging" procedures that are in excess of or not in lieu of the "C" Check to be performed pursuant to Clause 12.2 and Schedule 3. 12.4 NON-COMPLIANCE To the extent that, at the time of Final Inspection, the condition of the Aircraft does not comply with this Agreement, the Lessee shall at the option of the Lessor and the Lender: (a) immediately rectify-the non-compliance and, to the extent the non-compliance extends beyond the Expiry Date, the Term will be automatically extended until the non-compliance has been rectified; or (b) redeliver the Aircraft to the Lessor and indemnify the Lessor, and provide security reasonably acceptable to the Lessor and the Lender for that indemnity, against the cost of putting the Aircraft into the condition required by this Agreement. During any extension of the Term pursuant to sub-clause (a), this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, including the obligation to pay Basic Rent (which Lessee shall pay on a PER DIEM basis weekly in advance); provided, however, that Lessee shall not operate, or permit others to operate, the Aircraft after the Expiry Date except for acceptance flights pursuant to Clause 12.2 and a ferry flight to the Redelivery Location. 12.5 EXPORT DOCUMENTATION Upon redelivery and upon request by the Lessor, the Lessee shall (a) provide to the Lessor all documents necessary to export the Aircraft from the State of Registration (including a valid and subsisting export licence for the Aircraft), and (b) provide any documents -56- requested by the Lessor in connection with, and otherwise cooperate with, the deregistration of the Aircraft by the Aviation Authority, including causing the Aviation Authority to issue an Export Certificate of Airworthiness to a country specified by the Lessor. 12.6 ACKNOWLEDGMENT Provided the Lessee has complied with its obligations under this Agreement, following redelivery of the Aircraft by the Lessee to the Lessor at the Redelivery Location, the Lessor will deliver to the Lessee an acknowledgment confirming that the Lessor is satisfied that the Aircraft is in the condition required by this Agreement and has been redelivered to the Lessor in accordance with this Agreement. 12.7 MAINTENANCE PROGRAM (a) During the 20 day period preceding the scheduled Expiry Date and upon the Lessor's request, the Lessee will provide the Lessor or its agent reasonable access to the Agreed Maintenance Program and the Aircraft Documents in order to facilitate the Aircraft's integration into any subsequent operator's fleet. The Lessor agrees that it will not disclose the contents of the Agreed Maintenance Program to any person or entity except to the extent necessary to monitor the Lessee's compliance with this Agreement and/or to bridge the maintenance program for the Aircraft from the Agreed Maintenance Program to another program after the Expiry Date. (b) Concurrent with providing the Aircraft Documents for Lessor's review, Lessee shall provide to Lessor a written summary of all sampling programs involving or affecting the Aircraft. 12.8 STORAGE If the Lessor so requests, and subject to the availability of the requisite space, the Lessee shall park and store the Aircraft at a secure storage area, which may be at the Redelivery Location or at any other suitable facility of the Lessee selected by the Lessee, wherever located (the "STORAGE LOCATION"), on behalf of the Lessor for a period not exceeding 30 days from the Expiry Date. During that period the Aircraft shall be at the Lessee's risk (save as to any loss or damage caused by the Lessor's wilful misconduct or gross negligence), and the Lessee shall maintain and store the Aircraft in accordance with the respective manufacturer's maintenance planning document and shall insure the Aircraft in accordance with a "ground risk only" policy usual and customary in the worldwide aviation insurance marketplace. All storage, maintenance and insurance costs shall be borne by the Lessee. If the Lessor so requests, and subject to the availability of the requisite space, the Lessee shall continue to park and store the Aircraft at the Storage Location on behalf of the Lessor for a further period not exceeding 60 days. During that further period the Aircraft shall be at the Lessor's risk (save as to any loss or damage caused by the Lessee's wilful misconduct or -57- gross negligence), but the Lessee shall continue to maintain, store and insure the Aircraft in accordance with this Clause 12.8. All reasonable storage, maintenance and insurance costs incurred by the Lessee (excluding any profit element accruing to the Lessee) during such further period shall be reimbursed by the Lessor promptly upon presentation of supporting invoices and/or receipts. 13.

or (q) LETTER OF CREDIT: if the Lessee has elected to deliver the Letter of Credit in lieu of the Security Deposit pursuant to Clause 5.1(b), the Letter of Credit ceases for any reason to be in full force and effect or is not renewed or replaced before its expiration in accordance with Clause 5.1(b) and the Lessee does not immediately provide the Lessor with cash in an amount equal to the Security Deposit. 13.2 RIGHTS If an Event of Default occurs, and for as long as it shall continue, the Lessor may at its option (and without prejudice to any of its other rights under this Agreement), at any time thereafter: (a) treat such event as a repudiation by the Lessee of its obligations under this Agreement and by notice to the Lessee with immediate effect terminate the leasing of the Aircraft (but without prejudice to the continuing obligations of the Lessee under this Agreement), whereupon all rights of the Lessee under this Agreement shall cease; and/or (b) proceed by appropriate court action or actions to enforce performance of this Agreement or to recover damages for the breach of this Agreement; and/or (c) either: (i) take possession of the Aircraft, for which purpose the Lessor may enter any premises belonging to, occupied by or under the control of the Lessee (for which purpose the Lessee hereby grants to the Lessor an irrevocable licence to the extent permitted by applicable law) where the Aircraft may be located, or cause the Aircraft to be redelivered to the Lessor at the Redelivery Location (or such other location as the Lessor may require), and the Lessor is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to direct pilots of the Lessee or other pilots to fly the Aircraft to that airport and will have all the powers and authorizations necessary for taking such action; or (ii) by serving notice, require the Lessee to redeliver the Aircraft to the Lessor at the Redelivery Location (or such other location as the Lessor may require). 13.3 EXPORT -62- If an Event of Default occurs, and for as long as it shall continue, the Lessor may sell or otherwise deal with the Aircraft as if this Agreement had never been made and the Lessee will, at the request of the Lessor, take all steps necessary to export the Aircraft from the country where the Aircraft is for the time being situated and any other steps necessary to enable the Aircraft to be redelivered to the Lessor in accordance with this Agreement. The Lessee hereby irrevocably and by way of security for its obligations under this Agreement authorizes and empowers the Lessor as its attorney to execute and deliver any documentation and to do any act or thing required in connection with the foregoing. 13.4 DEFAULT PAYMENTS If a Default occurs, the Lessee will indemnify the Lessor on demand against any loss, damage, expense, cost or liability which the Lessor may sustain or incur directly or indirectly as a result, including: (a) any loss of profit (calculated on an after-tax basis) suffered by the Lessor because of the Lessor's inability to place the Aircraft on lease with another Lessee on terms as favorable to the Lessor as this Agreement or because whatever use, if any, to which the Lessor is able to put the Aircraft upon its return to the Lessor, is not as profitable (calculated on an after-tax basis) to the Lessor as this Agreement would have been but for such Default or non-delivery; (b) in the event that the Aircraft is sold as a consequence of the Lessor's inability to enter into a satisfactory lease within a reasonable period, the amount (if any) by which (i) the aggregate of (1) the net sale proceeds (calculated by deducting the costs of sale together with the cost of preparing the Aircraft for sale and the repayment of any outstanding indebtedness in relation to the financing of the Aircraft) plus (2) the present value of the anticipated after-tax net income to be derived from such net sale proceeds up to the scheduled Expiry Date, discounted on a monthly basis using 9.5% PER ANNUM as the discount rate, are less than (ii) the aggregate of (1) the anticipated net sale proceeds (computed on the same basis as the net sale proceeds referred to in (i)(1) above), assuming that the Aircraft would have been sold as soon as reasonably practicable following the scheduled Expiry Date plus (2) the present value of the income that would have been derived from the future Basic Rent payable until the scheduled Expiry Date, discounted on a monthly basis using 9.5% PER ANNUM as the discount rate; (c) any amount of principal, interest, fees or other sums whatsoever paid or payable on account of funds borrowed in order to carry any amount unpaid by the Lessee; (d) any loss, premium, penalty or expense that may be incurred in repaying funds raised to finance the Aircraft or in unwinding any swap, forward interest rate agreement or other financial instrument relating in whole or in part to the Lessor's financing of the Aircraft; and -63- (e) any loss, cost, expense or liability sustained or incurred by the Lessor owing to the Lessee's failure to redeliver the Aircraft on the date, at the place and in the condition required by this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Clause 5.8(a) will apply to any sums payable by the Lessee pursuant to this Clause 13.4. 14.
