The Equipment Notes (other than the Additional Series Equipment Notes) shall be dated the Closing Date, shall be issued in a single series consisting of Series A and in the maturities and principal amounts and shall bear interest as specified in Schedule I hereto. On the Closing Date, Series A shall be issued to the Subordination Agent on behalf of the Pass Through Trustee under the Pass Through Trust Agreement. In addition to the foregoing, Owner shall have the option to issue one or more separate series of Additional Series Equipment Notes at any time and from time to time at or after the Issuance Date, subject to the terms of Section 6.1.5 of the Note Purchase Agreement and Section 9.1(d) of the Intercreditor Agreement. If more than one series of Additional Series Equipment Notes are so issued, each such series shall have a different designation such as, for example, “Series B,” “Series C” and “Series D”, shall be dated the date of original issuance thereof and shall have such maturities, principal amounts and interest rates as specified in an amendment to this Trust Indenture. The Equipment Notes shall be issued in registered form only. The Equipment Notes shall be issued in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof, except that one Equipment Note of each Series may be in an amount that is not an integral multiple of $1,000.

 

Each Equipment Note shall bear interest at the applicable Debt Rate (calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days comprised of twelve 30-day months) on the unpaid Original Amount thereof from time to time outstanding. Accrued interest shall be payable in arrears on January 15, 2021, and on January 15, April 15, July 15 and October 15 thereafter until maturity. The Original Amount of each Equipment Note shall be payable on the dates and in the installments equal to the corresponding percentage of the Original Amount as set forth in Schedule I hereto for the applicable Series (as amended, in the case of any Additional Series, at the time of original issuance of such Additional Series) which shall be attached as Schedule I to such Equipment Notes (which shall be adjusted in accordance with Section 2.05 hereof after application of any partial redemptions made prior to the date that any such installment is due). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the final payment made under each Equipment Note shall be in an amount sufficient to discharge in full the unpaid Original Amount and all accrued and unpaid interest on, and any other amounts due under, such Equipment Note. Each Equipment Note shall bear interest, payable on demand, at the Payment Due Rate (calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days comprised of twelve 30-day months) on any part of the Original Amount, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, interest and any other amounts payable thereunder not paid when due for any period during which the same shall be overdue, in each case for the period the same is overdue. Amounts under any Equipment Note shall be overdue if not paid when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if any date on which a payment under any Equipment Note becomes due and payable is not a Business Day then such payment shall not be made on such scheduled date but shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and if such payment is made on such next succeeding Business Day, no interest shall accrue on the amount of such payment during such extension.

As used herein, “Owner’s pro rata share” means as of any time a fraction, the numerator of which is the principal balance then outstanding of Equipment Notes and the denominator of which is the aggregate principal balance then outstanding of all Equipment Notes. For purposes of this paragraph, the terms “Applied Downgrade Advance”, “Applied Non-Extension Advance”, “Applied Special Termination Advance”, “Downgrade Advance”, “Final Advance”, “Investment Earnings”, “Non-Extension Advance”, “Special

Termination Advance” and “Unpaid Advance” shall have the meanings specified in each Liquidity Facility.

 

The Equipment Notes shall be executed on behalf of the Owner by one of its authorized officers. Equipment Notes bearing the signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Owner shall bind the Owner, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Equipment Notes or did not hold such offices at the respective dates of such Equipment Notes. The Owner may from time to time execute and deliver Equipment Notes with respect to the Aircraft to the Mortgagee for authentication upon original issue and such Equipment Notes shall thereupon be authenticated and delivered by the Mortgagee upon the written request of the Owner signed by an authorized officer of the Owner. No Equipment Note shall be secured by or entitled to any benefit under this Trust Indenture or any other Security Agreement or be valid or obligatory for any purposes, unless there appears on such Equipment Note a certificate of authentication in the form provided for herein executed by the Mortgagee by the manual signature of one of its authorized officers and such certificate upon any Equipment Notes be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Equipment Note has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

 

The aggregate Original Amount of any Series of Equipment Notes issued hereunder shall not exceed the amount set forth as the maximum therefor on Schedule I hereto (as amended, in the case of any Additional Series, at the time of original issuance of such Additional Series).

 

SECTION 2.03.  [Intentionally Omitted]

 

SECTION 2.04.  Method of Payment

 

(a)            The Original Amount of, interest on, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and other amounts due under each Equipment Note or hereunder will be payable in Dollars by wire transfer of immediately available funds not later than 12:30 PM, New York time, on the due date of payment to the Mortgagee at the Corporate Trust Office for distribution among the Note Holders in the manner provided herein, and payment of such amount by the Owner to the Mortgagee shall be deemed to satisfy the Owner’s obligation to make such payment. The Owner shall not have any responsibility for the distribution of such payment to any Note Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision in any Equipment Note to the contrary, the Mortgagee will use reasonable efforts to pay or cause to be paid, if so directed in writing by any Note Holder (with a copy to the Owner), all amounts paid by the Owner hereunder and under such holder’s Equipment Note or Equipment Notes to such holder or a nominee therefor (including all amounts distributed pursuant to Article III of this Trust Indenture) by transferring, or causing to be transferred, by wire transfer of immediately available funds in Dollars, prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the due date of payment, to an account maintained by such holder with a bank located in the continental United States the amount to be distributed to such holder, for credit to the account of such holder maintained at such bank. If the Mortgagee shall fail to make any such payment as provided in the immediately foregoing sentence after its receipt of funds at the place and prior to the time specified above, the Mortgagee, in its individual

 

12

 

 

capacity and not as trustee, agrees to compensate such holders for loss of use of funds at Debt Rate until such payment is made and the Mortgagee shall be entitled to any interest earned on such funds until such payment is made. Any payment made hereunder shall be made without any presentment or surrender of any Equipment Note, except that, in the case of the final payment in respect of any Equipment Note, such Equipment Note shall be surrendered to the Mortgagee for cancellation promptly after such payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Indenture to the contrary, the Mortgagee shall not be required to make, or cause to be made, wire transfers as aforesaid prior to the first Business Day on which it is practicable for the Mortgagee to do so in view of the time of day when the funds to be so transferred were received by it if such funds were received after 12:30 PM, New York time, at the place of payment. Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of any Equipment Note, the Owner and the Mortgagee shall deem and treat the Person in whose name any Equipment Note is registered on the Equipment Note Register as the absolute owner and holder of such Equipment Note for the purpose of receiving payment of all amounts payable with respect to such Equipment Note and for all other purposes, and none of the Owner or the Mortgagee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. So long as any signatory to the Note Purchase Agreement or nominee thereof shall be a registered Note Holder, all payments to it shall be made to the account of such Note Holder specified in Schedule 1 thereto and otherwise in the manner provided in or pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement unless it shall have specified some other account or manner of payment by notice to the Mortgagee consistent with this Section 2.04.

 

(b)            The Mortgagee, as agent for the Owner, shall exclude and withhold at the appropriate rate from each payment of Original Amount of, interest on, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and other amounts due hereunder or under each Equipment Note (and such exclusion and withholding shall constitute payment in respect of such Equipment Note) any and all United States withholding taxes, including, without limitation, any such withholding taxes imposed under FATCA applicable thereto as required by Law. The Mortgagee agrees to act as such withholding agent and, in connection therewith, whenever any present or future United States taxes or similar charges are required to be withheld with respect to any amounts payable hereunder or in respect of the Equipment Notes, to withhold such amounts and timely pay the same to the appropriate authority in the name of and on behalf of the Note Holders, that it will file any necessary United States withholding tax returns or statements when due, and that as promptly as possible after the payment thereof it will deliver to each Note Holder (with a copy to the Owner) appropriate receipts showing the payment thereof, together with such additional documentary evidence as any such Note Holder may reasonably request from time to time.

 

If a Note Holder which is a Non-U.S. Person has furnished to the Mortgagee a properly completed, accurate and currently effective U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or such successor form or forms as may be required by the United States Treasury Department) during the calendar year in which the payment hereunder or under the Equipment Note(s) held by such holder is made (but prior to the making of such payment), or in either of the two preceding calendar years, and has not notified the Mortgagee of the withdrawal or inaccuracy of such form prior to the date of such payment (and the Mortgagee has no reason to believe that any information set forth in such form is inaccurate), the Mortgagee shall withhold only the amount, if any, required by Law (after taking into account any applicable exemptions properly claimed by the Note Holder) to be withheld from payments hereunder or

 

13

 

 

under the Equipment Notes held by such holder in respect of United States federal income tax, including any amounts required to be withheld under FATCA. If a Note Holder (x) which is a Non-U.S. Person has furnished to the Mortgagee a properly completed, accurate and currently effective U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI in duplicate (or such successor certificate, form or forms as may be required by the United States Treasury Department as necessary in order to properly avoid withholding of United States federal income tax), for each calendar year in which a payment is made (but prior to the making of any payment for such year), and has not notified the Mortgagee of the withdrawal or inaccuracy of such certificate or form prior to the date of such payment (and the Mortgagee has no reason to believe that any information set forth in such form is inaccurate) or (y) which is a U.S. Person has furnished to the Mortgagee a properly completed, accurate and currently effective U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, if applicable, prior to a payment hereunder or under the Equipment Notes held by such holder, no amount shall be withheld from payments in respect of United States federal income tax. If any Note Holder has notified the Mortgagee that any of the foregoing forms or certificates is withdrawn or inaccurate, or if such holder has not filed a form claiming an exemption from United States withholding tax or if the Code or the regulations thereunder or the administrative interpretation thereof is at any time after the date hereof amended to require such withholding of United States federal income taxes from payments under the Equipment Notes held by such holder, the Mortgagee agrees to withhold from each payment due to the relevant Note Holder withholding taxes at the appropriate rate under Law and will, on a timely basis as more fully provided above, deposit such amounts with an authorized depository and make such returns, statements, receipts and other documentary evidence in connection therewith as required by Law.

 

Owner shall not have any liability for the failure of the Mortgagee to withhold taxes in the manner provided for herein or for any false, inaccurate or untrue evidence provided by any Note Holder hereunder.

 

SECTION 2.05.  Application of Payments

 

In the case of each Equipment Note, each payment of Original Amount, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest due thereon shall be applied:

 

First: to the payment of Make-Whole Amount, if any, with respect to such Equipment Note and any other amount (other than as covered by any of the following clauses) due hereunder or under such Equipment Note;

 

Second: to the payment of accrued interest on such Equipment Note (as well as any interest on any overdue Original Amount, any overdue Make-Whole Amount, if any, and to the extent permitted by Law, any overdue interest and any other overdue amounts thereunder) to the date of such payment;

 

Third: to the payment of the Original Amount of such Equipment Note (or a portion thereof) then due thereunder; and

 

Fourth: the balance, if any, remaining thereafter, to the payment of the Original Amount of such Equipment Note remaining unpaid (provided that such Equipment Note

 

14

 

 

shall not be subject to redemption except as provided in Sections 2.10, 2.11 and 2.12 hereof).

 

The amounts paid pursuant to clause “Fourth” above shall be applied to the installments of Original Amount of such Equipment Note in the inverse order of their scheduled maturity; provided that, any such principal amount paid pursuant to (x) Section 2.10 hereof in connection with an Event of Loss (or constituting Loss Proceeds) with respect to Tier II Aircraft Collateral, or (y) Section 2.11(c) to cure a Collateral Trigger Event with respect to Tier II Aircraft Collateral, shall, in each case, be applied to the installments of Original Amount of such Equipment Note in the inverse order of their scheduled maturity to reduce the remaining scheduled amortization payments ending on the sixteenth payment date following the Closing Date.

 

SECTION 2.06.  Termination of Interest in Collateral

 

No Note Holder nor any other Indenture Indemnitee shall, as such, have any further interest in, or other right with respect to, the Collateral when and if the Original Amount of, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest on and other amounts due under all Equipment Notes held by such Note Holder and all other sums then due and payable to such Note Holder, such Indenture Indemnitee or the Mortgagee hereunder (including, without limitation, under the third paragraph of Section 2.02 hereof), under the other Security Agreements and under the other Operative Agreements by the Owner (collectively, the “Secured Obligations”) shall have been paid in full.

 

SECTION 2.07.  Registration Transfer and Exchange of Equipment Notes

 

The Mortgagee shall keep a register (the “Equipment Note Register”) in which the Mortgagee shall provide for the registration of Equipment Notes and the registration of transfers of Equipment Notes. No such transfer shall be given effect unless and until registration hereunder shall have occurred. The Equipment Note Register shall be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Mortgagee. The Mortgagee is hereby appointed “Equipment Note Registrar” for the purpose of registering Equipment Notes and transfers of Equipment Notes as herein provided. A holder of any Equipment Note intending to exchange such Equipment Note shall surrender such Equipment Note to the Mortgagee at the Corporate Trust Office, together with a written request from the registered holder thereof for the issuance of a new Equipment Note, specifying, in the case of a surrender for transfer, the name and address of the new holder or holders. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Equipment Note, the Owner shall execute, and the Mortgagee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Equipment Notes of a like aggregate Original Amount and of the same Series. At the option of the Note Holder, Equipment Notes may be exchanged for other Equipment Notes of any authorized denominations of a like aggregate Original Amount, upon surrender of the Equipment Notes to be exchanged to the Mortgagee at the Corporate Trust Office. Whenever any Equipment Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Owner shall execute, and the Mortgagee shall authenticate and deliver, the Equipment Notes which the Note Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. All Equipment Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Equipment Notes (whether under this

 

15

 

 

Section 2.07 or under Section 2.08 hereof or otherwise under this Trust Indenture) shall be the valid obligations of the Owner evidencing the same respective obligations, and entitled to the same security and benefits under this Trust Indenture, as the Equipment Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. Every Equipment Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer, shall (if so required by the Mortgagee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Mortgagee duly executed by the Note Holder or such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and the Mortgagee shall require evidence satisfactory to it as to the compliance of any such transfer with the Securities Act, and the securities Laws of any applicable state. The Mortgagee shall make a notation on each new Equipment Note of the amount of all payments of Original Amount previously made on the old Equipment Note or Equipment Notes with respect to which such new Equipment Note is issued and the date to which interest on such old Equipment Note or Equipment Notes has been paid. Interest shall be deemed to have been paid on such new Equipment Note to the date on which interest shall have been paid on such old Equipment Note, and all payments of the Original Amount marked on such new Equipment Note, as provided above, shall be deemed to have been made thereon. The Owner shall not be required to exchange any surrendered Equipment Notes as provided above during the ten-day period preceding the due date of any payment on such Equipment Note. The Owner shall in all cases deem the Person in whose name any Equipment Note shall have been issued and registered as the absolute owner and holder of such Equipment Note for the purpose of receiving payment of all amounts payable by the Owner with respect to such Equipment Note and for all purposes until a notice stating otherwise is received from the Mortgagee and such change is reflected on the Equipment Note Register. The Mortgagee will promptly notify the Owner of each registration of a transfer of an Equipment Note. Any such transferee of an Equipment Note, by its acceptance of an Equipment Note, (i) agrees to the provisions of this Trust Indenture, the other Security Agreements and the Note Purchase Agreement applicable to Note Holders, including Sections 6.3, 6.4 and 9.1 of the Note Purchase Agreement, and shall be deemed to have covenanted to the parties to the Note Purchase Agreement as to the matters covenanted by the original Note Holder in the Note Purchase Agreement and (ii) agrees to the restrictions set forth in Sections 4.1(a)(i) and 4.1(a)(iii) of the Intercreditor Agreement, and shall be deemed to have covenanted to the parties to the Intercreditor Agreement not to give any direction, or otherwise authorize, the Mortgagee to take any action that would violate Sections 4.1(a)(i) or 4.1(a)(iii) of the Intercreditor Agreement. Subject to compliance by the Note Holder and its transferee (if any) of the requirements set forth in this Section 2.07, Mortgagee and Owner shall use all reasonable efforts to issue new Equipment Notes upon transfer or exchange within 10 Business Days of the date an Equipment Note is surrendered for transfer or exchange.

 

SECTION 2.08.  Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Equipment Notes

 

If any Equipment Note shall become mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Owner shall, upon the written request of the holder of such Equipment Note, execute and the Mortgagee shall authenticate and deliver in replacement thereof a new Equipment Note, payable in the same Original Amount dated the same date. If the Equipment Note being replaced has become mutilated, such Equipment Note shall be surrendered to the Mortgagee and a photocopy thereof shall be furnished to the Owner. If the Equipment Note being replaced has been destroyed, lost or stolen, the holder of such Equipment Note shall furnish to the Owner and the

 

16

 

 

Mortgagee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save the Owner and the Mortgagee harmless and evidence satisfactory to the Owner and the Mortgagee of the destruction, loss or theft of such Equipment Note and of the ownership thereof. If a “qualified institutional buyer” of the type referred to in paragraph (a)(1)(i)(A), (B), (D) or (E) of Rule 144A under the Securities Act (a “QIB”) is the holder of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Equipment Note, then the written indemnity of such QIB, signed by an authorized officer thereof, in favor of, delivered to and in form reasonably satisfactory Owner shall be accepted as satisfactory indemnity and security and no further indemnity or security shall be required as a condition to the execution and delivery of such new Equipment Note. Subject to compliance by the Note Holder with the requirements set forth in this Section 2.08, Mortgagee and Owner shall use all reasonable efforts to issue new Equipment Notes within 10 Business Days of the date of the written request therefor from the Note Holder.

 

SECTION 2.09.  Payment of Expenses on Transfer; Cancellation

 

(a)            No service charge shall be made to a Note Holder for any registration of transfer or exchange of Equipment Notes, but the Mortgagee, as Equipment Note Registrar, may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Equipment Notes.

 

(b)            The Mortgagee shall cancel all Equipment Notes surrendered for replacement, redemption, transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and shall destroy the canceled Equipment Notes.

 

SECTION 2.10.  Mandatory Redemptions of Equipment Notes

 

(a)            Subject to Section 4.05(a)(ii)(y) or 4.05(b)(ii)(y) hereof or Section 2.04(a)(ii)(y) of the Spare Engines Security Agreement, as applicable, on the date on which the Owner is required pursuant to Section 4.05(a) or 4.05(b) hereof or Section 2.04(a) of the Spare Engines Security Agreement, as applicable, to make payment for an Event of Loss with respect to an Aircraft, Airframe, Engine or Spare Engine, the Owner will be required to redeem a portion of the unpaid Original Amount of the Equipment Notes in an amount equal to the Allocable Amount of such Aircraft, Airframe, Engine or Spare Engine having suffered such Event of Loss, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the unpaid Original Amount being redeemed, together with all accrued interest on the principal amount being redeemed to the date of redemption but without Make-Whole Amount.

 

(b)            If, at any time, the Loss Proceeds Balance exceeds $50,000,000, then Owner shall redeem Equipment Notes of each Series in an Original Amount equal to the Loss Proceeds Balance accrued since the Closing Date (without duplication of amounts previously redeemed) upon 30 days' prior written notice to the Mortgagee and to each Note Holder of such Equipment Notes to be redeemed. The redemption price shall be equal to 100% of the unpaid Original Amount being redeemed, together with all accrued interest on the principal amount being redeemed to the date of redemption but without Make-Whole Amount. Upon request of

 

17

 

 

Owner to the Mortgagee, the Mortgagee shall apply any Cash Collateral then held by the Mortgagee as Loss Proceeds to the payment of such redemption price

 

SECTION 2.11.  Voluntary Redemptions of Equipment Notes

 

(a)            All (but not less than all) of the Equipment Notes may be redeemed by the Owner upon at least 30 days’ revocable prior written notice to the Mortgagee and the Note Holders, and such Equipment Notes shall be redeemed in whole at a redemption price equal to 100% of the unpaid Original Amount thereof, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of redemption and all other Secured Obligations owed or then due and payable to the Note Holders plus Make-Whole Amount, if any.

 

(b)            [reserved].

 

(c)            If a Collateral Trigger Event has occurred and is continuing, Owner may, pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(iii) of the Collateral Maintenance Annex and in accordance with Section 2.12 below, at its sole option, redeem a portion of the Equipment Notes of each Series in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the minimum amount necessary to cure (after giving effect to all other actions taken by Owner pursuant to Section 3.1(a) of the Collateral Maintenance Annex) such Collateral Trigger Event, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the unpaid Original Amount being redeemed, together with all accrued interest on the principal amount being redeemed to the date of redemption but without Make-Whole Amount.

 

SECTION 2.12.  Redemptions; Notice of Redemption

 

(a)            No redemption of any Equipment Note may be made except to the extent and in the manner expressly permitted by this Trust Indenture. No purchase of any Equipment Note may be made by the Mortgagee. If at the time of redemption of any Series of Equipment Notes in part there is more than one Equipment Note of such Series outstanding, each such Equipment Note shall be redeemed in part pro rata based on the total Original Amount of such Series to be redeemed compared to the total Original Amount of such Equipment Note outstanding prior to giving effect to such redemption.

 

(b)            Notice of redemption with respect to the Equipment Notes shall be given by the Mortgagee by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than 20 nor more than 60 days prior to the applicable redemption date, to each Note Holder of such Equipment Notes to be redeemed, at such Note Holder’s address appearing in the Equipment Note Register; provided that such notice shall be revocable by written notice from the Owner to Mortgagee given not later than three days prior to the redemption date. All notices of redemption shall state: (1) the redemption date, (2) the applicable basis for determining the redemption price, (3) that on the redemption date, the redemption price will become due and payable upon each such Equipment Note, and that, if any such Equipment Notes are then outstanding, interest on such Equipment Notes shall cease to accrue on and after such redemption date, and (4) the place or places where such Equipment Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price.

 

(c)            On or before the redemption date, the Owner (or any person on behalf of the Owner) shall, to the extent an amount equal to the redemption price for the

 

18

 

 

Equipment Notes to be redeemed on the redemption date shall not then be held by the Mortgagee, deposit or cause to be deposited with the Mortgagee by 12:30 PM New York time on the redemption date in immediately available funds the redemption price of the Equipment Notes to be redeemed.

 

(d)            Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Equipment Notes to be redeemed shall, on the redemption date, become due and payable at the Corporate Trust Office of the Mortgagee or at any office or agency maintained for such purposes pursuant to Section 2.07, and from and after such redemption date (unless there shall be a default in the payment of the redemption price) any such Equipment Notes then outstanding shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Equipment Note for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Equipment Note shall be redeemed at the redemption price. If any Equipment Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal amount thereof shall, until paid, continue to bear interest from the applicable redemption date at the interest rate in effect for such Equipment Note as of such redemption date.

 

SECTION 2.13.  Subordination

 

(a)            The Owner and each Note Holder (by acceptance of its Equipment Notes of any Series) hereby agree that no payment or distribution shall be made on or in respect of the Secured Obligations owed to such Note Holder of such Series, including any payment or distribution of cash, property or securities after the commencement of a proceeding of the type referred to in Section 5.01(v), (vi) or (vii) hereof, except as expressly provided in Article III hereof.

 

(b)            By the acceptance of its Equipment Notes of any Series (other than Series A), each Note Holder of such Series agrees that in the event that such Note Holder, in its capacity as a Note Holder, shall receive any payment or distribution on any Secured Obligations in respect of such Series which it is not entitled to receive under this Section 2.13 or Article III hereof, it will hold any amount so received in trust for the Senior Holder (as defined in Section 2.13(c) hereof) and will forthwith turn over such payment to the Mortgagee in the form received to be applied as provided in Article III hereof.

 

(c)            As used in this Section 2.13, the term “Senior Holder” shall mean (i) the Note Holders of Series A Equipment Notes until the Secured Obligations in respect of Series A Equipment Notes have been paid in full, and (ii) after the Secured Obligations in respect of the Series A Equipment Notes have been paid in full (and except as otherwise provided in an amendment to this Trust Indenture pursuant to Section 10.01(b) hereof), the Note Holders of the Additional Series Equipment Notes, if issued, until the Secured Obligations in respect of the Additional Series Equipment Notes have been paid in full.

SECTION 3.06.  [Reserved.]

 

SECTION 3.07.  Securities Account

 

WTNA agrees to act as an Eligible Institution under this Trust Indenture in accordance with the provisions of this Trust Indenture. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Trust Indenture, WTNA waives any claim or lien against any Eligible Account it may have, by operation of law or otherwise, for any amount owed to it by Owner. The Mortgagee hereby agrees that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Trust Indenture, (i) any amounts of Cash Collateral to be held by the Mortgagee and any investment earnings thereon or other Cash Equivalents will be credited to an Eligible Account (the “Securities Account”) for which it is a “securities intermediary” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(14) of the NY UCC) and the Mortgagee is the “entitlement holder” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(7) of the NY UCC) of the “securities entitlement” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(17) of the NY UCC) with respect to each “financial asset” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(9) of the NY UCC) credited to such Eligible Account, (ii) all such amounts, Cash Equivalents and all other property acquired with cash credited to the Securities Account will be credited to the Securities Account, (iii) all items of property (whether cash, investment property, Cash Equivalents, other investments, securities, instruments or other property) credited to the Securities Account will be treated as a “financial asset” under Article 8 of the NY UCC, (iv) its “securities intermediary’s jurisdiction” (as defined in Section 8-110(e) of the NY UCC) with respect to the Securities Account is the State of New York, and (v) all securities, instruments and other property in order or registered from and credited to the Securities Account shall be payable to or to the order of, or registered in the name of, the Mortgagee or shall be indorsed to the Mortgagee or in blank, and in no case whatsoever shall any financial asset credited to the Securities Account be registered in the name of the Owner, payable to or to the order of the Owner or specially indorsed to the Owner except to the extent the foregoing have been specially endorsed by the Owner to the Mortgagee or in blank. The Mortgagee agrees that it will hold (and will indicate clearly in its books and records that it holds) its “securities entitlement” to the “financial assets” credited to the Securities Account in trust for the benefit of the Note Holders and each of the Indenture Indemnitees as set forth in this Trust Indenture. The Owner acknowledges that, by reason of the Mortgagee being the “entitlement holder” in respect of the Securities Account as provided above, the Mortgagee shall have the sole right and discretion, subject only to the terms of this Trust Indenture, to give all “entitlement orders” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(8) of the NY UCC) with respect to the Securities Account and any and all financial assets and other property credited thereto to the exclusion of the Owner.

provided that (1) the rights of any transferee who receives possession by reason of a transfer permitted by any of clauses (i) through (viii) of this Section 4.02(b) (other than by a transfer of an Engine which is deemed an Aircraft Event of Loss) shall be subject and subordinate to all the terms of this Trust Indenture, (2) the Owner shall remain primarily liable for the performance of all of the terms of this Trust Indenture and all the terms and conditions of this Trust Indenture and the other Operative Agreements shall remain in effect and (3) no lease or transfer of possession otherwise in compliance with this Section 4.02(b) shall (x) result in any registration or re-registration of an Aircraft, except to the extent permitted by Section 4.02(e) or the maintenance, operation or use thereof except in compliance with Sections 4.02(c) and 4.02(d) or (y) permit any action not permitted to the Owner hereunder.

 

In the case of any lease permitted under this Section 4.02(b), the Owner will include in such lease appropriate provisions which (t) make such lease expressly subject and subordinate to all of the terms of this Trust Indenture, including the rights of the Mortgagee to avoid such lease in the exercise of its rights to repossession of any Airframe or Engine hereunder; (u) require the Permitted Lessee to comply with the terms of Section 4.06; and (v) require that any Airframe or Engine subject thereto be used in accordance with the limitations applicable to the Owner’s possession and use provided in this Trust Indenture. No lease permitted under this Section 4.02(b) shall be entered into unless (w) Owner shall provide written notice to Mortgagee (such notice in the event of a lease to a U.S. Air Carrier to be given promptly after entering into any such lease or, in the case of a lease to any other Permitted Air Carrier, 10 days in advance of entering into such lease; provided that such prior written notice shall not be required under this clause (w) in connection with a lease entered into or in effect on or prior to the date such Airframe or Engine becomes subject to this Trust Indenture); (x) Owner shall furnish to Mortgagee evidence reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee that the insurance required by Section 4.06 remains in effect (subject to such exclusions and exceptions, as is standard for air carriers flying similar airframes and engines, on routes comparable to those flown by the applicable Airframe or Engine); (y) all necessary documents shall have been duly filed, registered or recorded in such public offices as may be required fully to preserve the first priority security interest and International Interest (subject to Permitted Liens) of Mortgagee in the Aircraft, Airframes and Engines subject to such lease; and (z) Owner shall reimburse Mortgagee for all of its reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses, including, without

 

27

 

 

limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, incurred by Mortgagee in connection with any such lease. Except as otherwise provided herein and without in any way relieving the Owner from its primary obligation for the performance of its obligations under this Trust Indenture, the Owner may in its sole discretion permit a lessee to exercise any or all rights which the Owner would be entitled to exercise under Sections 4.02 and 4.04, and may cause a lessee to perform any or all of the Owner’s obligations under Article IV, and the Mortgagee agrees to accept actual and full performance thereof by a lessee in lieu of performance by the Owner.

 

Mortgagee hereby agrees, and each Note Holder by acceptance of an Equipment Note agrees, for the benefit of each lessor, conditional seller, indenture trustee or secured party of any engine leased to, or owned by, Owner or any Permitted Lessee subject to a lease, conditional sale, trust indenture or other security agreement that Mortgagee, each Note Holder and their respective successors and assigns will not acquire or claim, as against such lessor, conditional seller, indenture trustee or secured party, any right, title or interest in any engine as the result of such engine being installed on any Airframe at any time while such engine is subject to such lease, conditional sale, trust indenture or other security agreement and owned by such lessor or conditional seller or subject to a trust indenture or security interest in favor of such indenture trustee or secured party.

 

(c)            Operation and Use. So long as an Aircraft, Airframe or Engine is subject to the Lien of this Trust Indenture, the Owner shall not operate, use or locate such Aircraft, Airframe or Engine, or allow such Aircraft, Airframe or Engine to be operated, used or located, (i) in any area excluded from coverage by any insurance required by the terms of Section 4.06, except in the case of a requisition by the U.S. Government where the Owner obtains indemnity in lieu of such insurance from the U.S. Government, or insurance from the U.S. Government, against substantially the same risks and for at least the amounts of the insurance required by Section 4.06 covering such area, or (ii) in any recognized area of hostilities unless covered in accordance with Section 4.06 by war risk insurance, or in either case unless such Aircraft, Airframe or Engine is only temporarily operated, used or located in such area as a result of an emergency, equipment malfunction, navigational error, hijacking, weather condition or other similar unforeseen circumstance, so long as Owner (or a Permitted Lessee, as the case may be) diligently and in good faith proceeds to remove such Aircraft, Airframe or Engine from such area. So long as an Aircraft, Airframe or Engine is subject to the Lien of this Trust Indenture, the Owner shall not permit such Aircraft, Airframe or Engine, as the case may be, to be used, operated, maintained, serviced, repaired or overhauled (x) in violation of any Law binding on or applicable to such Aircraft, Airframe or Engine or (y) in violation of any airworthiness certificate, license or registration of any Government Entity relating to such Aircraft, Airframe or Engine, except (i) immaterial or non-recurring violations with respect to which corrective measures are taken promptly by Owner or Permitted Lessee, as the case may be, upon discovery thereof, or (ii) to the extent the validity or application of any such Law or requirement relating to any such certificate, license or registration is being contested in good faith by Owner or Permitted Lessee in any reasonable manner which does not involve any material risk of the sale, forfeiture or loss of such Aircraft, Airframe or Engine, any material risk of criminal liability or material civil penalty against Mortgagee or impair the Mortgagee’s security interest or International Interest in such Aircraft, Airframe or Engine.

 

28

 

 

(d)            Maintenance and Repair. So long as an Aircraft, Airframe or Engine is subject to the Lien of this Trust Indenture, the Owner shall cause such Aircraft, Airframe and Engine to be maintained, serviced, repaired and overhauled in accordance with (i) maintenance standards required by or substantially equivalent to those required by the FAA, the EASA or the central aviation authority of Canada or Japan for such Aircraft, Airframe and Engine, so as to (A) keep such Aircraft, Airframe and Engine in good operating condition and, (B) keep such Aircraft in such operating condition as may be necessary to enable the applicable airworthiness certification of such Aircraft to be maintained under the regulations of the FAA or other Aviation Authority then having jurisdiction over the operation of such Aircraft, except in the case of clauses (A) and (B) during (x) periods of storage, (y) maintenance and modification permitted hereunder or (z) periods when the FAA or such other Aviation Authority has revoked or suspended the airworthiness certificates for aircraft manufactured by the same manufacturer and of the same type and model as such Aircraft; and (ii) except during periods when a Permitted Lease with respect to such Aircraft, Airframe or Engine is in effect, the same standards as Owner uses with respect to similar aircraft of similar size in its fleet operated by Owner in similar circumstances and, during any period in which a Permitted Lease with respect to such Aircraft, Airframe or Engine is in effect, the same standards used by the Permitted Lessee with respect to similar aircraft of similar size in its fleet and operated by the Permitted Lessee in similar circumstances (it being understood that this clause (ii) shall not limit Owner’s obligations under the preceding clause (i)). Owner further agrees that each Aircraft, Airframe and Engine will be maintained, used, serviced, repaired, overhauled or inspected in compliance with applicable Laws with respect to the maintenance of such Aircraft and in compliance with each applicable airworthiness certificate, license and registration relating to such Aircraft, Airframe or Engine issued by the Aviation Authority, other than minor or nonrecurring violations with respect to which corrective measures are taken upon discovery thereof and except to the extent Owner or Permitted Lessee is contesting in good faith the validity or application of any such Law or requirement relating to any such certificate, license or registration in any reasonable manner which does not create a material risk of sale, loss or forfeiture of such Aircraft, Airframe or Engine or the interest of Mortgagee therein, or any material risk of criminal liability or material civil penalty against Mortgagee. The Owner shall maintain or cause to be maintained the Airframe Documents and Engine Documents in the English language.

 

(e)            Registration. The Owner shall cause each Aircraft to remain duly registered in its name under the Act, except as otherwise permitted by this Section 4.02(e). So long as no Special Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Owner may, by written notice to Mortgagee, request to change the country of registration of an Aircraft. Any such change in registration shall be effected only in compliance with, and subject to all of the conditions set forth in, Section 6.4.5 of the Note Purchase Agreement. Unless this Trust Indenture has been discharged, Owner shall also cause this Trust Indenture to be duly recorded and at all times maintained of record as a first-priority perfected mortgage (subject to Permitted Liens) on each Aircraft, each of the Airframes and each of the Engines (except to the extent such perfection or priority cannot be maintained solely as a result of the failure by Mortgagee to execute and deliver any necessary documents). Unless the Lien of this Trust Indenture has been discharged, Owner shall cause the International Interest granted under this Trust Indenture in favor of the Mortgagee in each Airframe and Engine to be registered on the International

 

29

 

 

Registry as an International Interest on such Airframe and Engine, subject to the Mortgagee providing its consent to the International Registry with respect thereto.

 

(f)            Markings. If permitted by applicable Law, on or reasonably promptly after the Applicable Date with respect to an Airframe or Engine, Owner will cause to be affixed to, and maintained in, the cockpit of each Airframe and on each Engine, in each case, in a clearly visible location, a placard of a reasonable size and shape bearing the legend: “Subject to a security interest in favor of Wilmington Trust, National Association, not in its individual capacity but solely as Mortgagee.” Such placards may be removed temporarily, if necessary, in the course of maintenance of the Airframes or Engines. If any such placard is damaged or becomes illegible, Owner shall promptly replace it with a placard complying with the requirements of this Section.

 

SECTION 4.03.  [Reserved]

 

SECTION 4.04.  Replacement and Pooling of Parts, Alterations, Modifications and Additions; Substitution Rights

 

(a)            Replacement of Parts. Except as otherwise provided herein, so long as an Airframe or Engine is subject to the Lien of this Trust Indenture, Owner, at its own cost and expense, will, or will cause a Permitted Lessee to, at its own cost and expense, promptly replace (or cause to be replaced) all Parts which may from time to time be incorporated or installed in or attached to such Airframe or Engine and which may from time to time become worn out, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged beyond repair or permanently rendered unfit for use for any reason whatsoever. In addition, Owner may, at its own cost and expense, or may permit a Permitted Lessee at its own cost and expense to, remove (or cause to be removed) in the ordinary course of maintenance, service, repair, overhaul or testing any Parts, whether or not worn out, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged beyond repair or permanently rendered unfit for use; provided, however, that Owner, except as otherwise provided herein, at its own cost and expense, will, or will cause a Permitted Lessee at its own cost and expense to, replace such Parts as promptly as practicable. All replacement parts shall be free and clear of all Liens, except for Permitted Liens and pooling arrangements to the extent permitted by Section 4.04(c) below (and except in the case of replacement property temporarily installed on an emergency basis) and shall be in as good an operating condition and have a value and utility not less than the value and utility of the Parts replaced (assuming such replaced Parts were in the condition required hereunder).

 

(b)            Parts. Except as otherwise provided herein, any Part at any time removed from an Airframe or Engine shall remain subject to the Lien of this Trust Indenture, no matter where located, until such time as such Part shall be replaced by a part that has been incorporated or installed in or attached to such Airframe or Engine and that meets the requirements for replacement parts specified above. Immediately upon any replacement part becoming incorporated or installed in or attached to such Airframe or Engine as provided in Section 4.04(a), without further act, (i) the replaced Part shall thereupon be free and clear of all rights of the Mortgagee and shall no longer be deemed a Part hereunder, and (ii) such replacement part shall become a Part subject to this Trust Indenture and be deemed part of such

 

30

 

 

Airframe or Engine, as the case may be, for all purposes hereof to the same extent as the Parts originally incorporated or installed in or attached to such Airframe or Engine.

 

(c)            Pooling of Parts. Any Part removed from an Aircraft, Airframe or Engine may be subjected by the Owner or a Permitted Lessee to a normal pooling arrangement customary in the airline industry and entered into in the ordinary course of business of Owner or Permitted Lessee, provided that the part replacing such removed Part shall be incorporated or installed in or attached to such Airframe or Engine in accordance with Sections 4.04(a) and 4.04(b) as promptly as practicable after the removal of such removed Part. In addition, any replacement part when incorporated or installed in or attached to an Airframe or Engine may be owned by any third party, subject to a normal pooling arrangement, so long as the Owner or a Permitted Lessee, at its own cost and expense, as promptly thereafter as reasonably possible, either (i) causes such replacement Part to become subject to the Lien of this Trust Indenture, free and clear of all Liens except Permitted Liens, at which time such replacement part shall become a Part or (ii) replaces (or causes to be replaced) such replacement Part by incorporating or installing in or attaching to such Airframe or Engine a further replacement part owned by the Owner free and clear of all Liens except Permitted Liens and which shall become subject to the Lien of this Trust Indenture in accordance with Section 4.04(b).

 

(d)            Alterations, Modifications and Additions. The Owner shall, or shall cause a Permitted Lessee to, make (or cause to be made) any Mandatory Modification in respect of any Aircraft, Airframe or Engine; provided, however, that the Owner or a Permitted Lessee may, in good faith and by appropriate procedure, contest the validity or application of any law, rule, regulation or order in any reasonable manner which does not materially adversely affect Mortgagee’s interest in such Aircraft, does not impair the Mortgagee’s security interest or International Interest in such Aircraft and does not involve any material risk of sale, forfeiture or loss of such Aircraft or the interest of Mortgagee therein, or any material risk of material civil penalty or any material risk of criminal liability being imposed on Mortgagee or the holder of any Equipment Note. In addition, the Owner, at its own expense, may, or may permit a Permitted Lessee at its own cost and expense to, from time to time make or cause to be made an Optional Modification to any Aircraft, Airframe or Engine; provided, however, that no such Optional Modification shall (i) materially diminish the fair market value, utility, or useful life of such Aircraft, Airframe or Engine below its fair market value, utility or useful life immediately prior to such Optional Modification (assuming such Aircraft, Airframe or Engine was in the condition required by this Trust Indenture immediately prior to such Optional Modification) or (ii) cause such Aircraft to cease to have the applicable standard certificate of airworthiness except that such certificate of airworthiness temporarily may be replaced by an experimental certificate during the process of implementing and testing such Optional Modification and securing related FAA re-certification of such Aircraft. All Parts incorporated or installed in or attached to any Airframe or Engine as the result of any alteration, modification or addition effected by the Owner shall be free and clear of any Liens except Permitted Liens and become subject to the Lien of this Trust Indenture; provided that the Owner or any Permitted Lessee may, at any time so long as any Airframe or Engine is subject to the Lien of this Trust Indenture, remove any such Part (such Part being referred to herein as a “Removable Aircraft Part”) from such Airframe or Engine if (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 such Airframe or

 

31

 

 

Engine at the time of original delivery thereof by the Manufacturer or any Part in replacement of, or in substitution for, any such original Part, (ii) such Part is not required to be incorporated or installed in or attached or added to such Airframe or Engine pursuant to the terms of Section 4.02(d) or the first sentence of this Section 4.04(d) and (iii) such Part can be removed from such Airframe or Engine without materially diminishing the fair market value, utility or remaining useful life which such Airframe or Engine would have had at the time of removal had such removal not been effected by the Owner, assuming such Airframe or Engine was otherwise maintained in the condition required by this Trust Indenture and such Removable Aircraft Part had not been incorporated or installed in or attached to such Airframe or Engine. Upon the removal by the Owner of any such Part as above provided in this Section 4.04(d), title thereto shall, without further act, be free and clear of all rights of the Mortgagee and such Part shall no longer be deemed a Part hereunder. Removable Aircraft Parts may be leased from or financed by third parties other than Mortgagee.

 

(e)            Substitution of Engines. Owner shall have the right at its option at any time, on at least five Business Days’ prior written notice to the Mortgagee, to substitute one or more Substitute Engines, free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens), for one or more Engines, in each case, so long as:

 

(i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of substitution;

 

(ii) each Substitute Engine may be the same or a different model and manufactured by the same or a different manufacturer than the Engine(s) being replaced by such Substitute Engine; provided that such Substitute Engine may not be a model that has been fully retired or has been announced for such retirement by the Owner and shall not be of a type that is associated exclusively with one or more aircraft models that would not satisfy the type certification condition in Section 4.2(c) of the Collateral Maintenance Annex;

Without limiting any of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that the Mortgagee may exercise any right of sale of any Collateral available to it, even though it shall not have taken possession of such Collateral and shall not have possession thereof at the time of such sale.

 

(b)          If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then and in every such case the Mortgagee may (and shall, upon receipt of a written demand therefor from a Majority in Interest of Note Holders), at any time, by delivery of written notice or notices to the Owner, declare all the Equipment Notes to be due and payable, whereupon the unpaid Original Amount of all Equipment Notes then outstanding, together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon (without Make-Whole Amount) and other amounts due thereunder or otherwise payable hereunder or under any other Security Agreement, shall immediately become due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or notice, all of which are hereby waived; provided that if an Event of Default referred to in clause (v), (vi) or (vii) of Section 5.01 hereof

 

42

 

 

shall have occurred, then and in every such case the unpaid Original Amount then outstanding, together with accrued but unpaid interest (without Make-Whole Amount) and all other amounts due hereunder, under any other Security Agreement and under the Equipment Notes shall immediately and without further act become due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or notice, all of which are hereby waived.

 

This Section 5.02(b), however, is subject to the condition that, if at any time after all or any portion of the Original Amount of the Equipment Notes shall have become so due and payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the money so due, or any thereof, shall be entered, all overdue payments of interest upon the Equipment Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder, under any other Security Agreement or under the Equipment Notes (except the portion of the Original Amount of the Equipment Notes and any Make-Whole Amount which by such declaration shall have become payable) shall have been duly paid, and every other Default and Event of Default with respect to any covenant or provision of this Trust Indenture and any other Security Agreement shall have been cured, then and in every such case a Majority in Interest of Note Holders may (but shall not be obligated to), by written instrument filed with the Mortgagee, rescind and annul the Mortgagee’s declaration (or such automatic acceleration) and its consequences; but no such rescission or annulment shall extend to or affect any subsequent Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

 

(c)           The Note Holders shall be entitled, at any sale pursuant to this Section 5.02, to credit against any purchase price bid at such sale by such holder all or any part of the unpaid obligations owing to such Note Holder and secured by the Lien of this Trust Indenture or any other Security Agreement (only to the extent that such purchase price would have been paid to such Note Holder pursuant to Article III hereof if such purchase price were paid in cash and the foregoing provisions of this subsection (c) were not given effect).

 

(d)           In the event of any sale of the Collateral, or any part thereof, pursuant to any judgment or decree of any court or otherwise in connection with the enforcement of any of the terms of this Trust Indenture or any other Security Agreement, the unpaid Original Amount of all Equipment Notes then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon (without Make-Whole Amount), and other amounts due thereunder, shall immediately become due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or notice, all of which are hereby waived.

 

(e)           Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in any other Security Agreement, so long as the Pass Through Trustee under the Pass Through Trust Agreement (or its designee) is a Note Holder, the Mortgagee will not be authorized or empowered to acquire title to any Collateral or take any action with respect to any Collateral so acquired by it if such acquisition or action would cause any Trust to fail to qualify as a “grantor trust” for federal income tax purposes.

 

SECTION 5.03.  Return of Collateral, Etc.

 

(a)           If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Equipment Notes have been accelerated, at the request of the Mortgagee, the Owner shall promptly execute and deliver to the Mortgagee such instruments of title and other documents as

 

43

 

 

the Mortgagee may deem necessary or advisable to enable the Mortgagee or an agent or representative designated by the Mortgagee, at such time or times and place or places as the Mortgagee may specify, to obtain possession of all or any part of the Collateral to which the Mortgagee shall at the time be entitled hereunder or under any other Security Agreement, and, in the case of Spare Parts Collateral, the Owner shall assemble such Spare Parts Collateral and make it available to the Mortgagee at one or more Designated Locations. If the Owner shall for any reason fail to execute and deliver such instruments and documents after such request by the Mortgagee, the Mortgagee may (i) obtain a judgment conferring on the Mortgagee the right to immediate possession and requiring the Owner to execute and deliver such instruments and documents to the Mortgagee, to the entry of which judgment the Owner hereby specifically consents to the fullest extent permitted by Law, and (ii) pursue all or part of such Collateral wherever it may be found and may enter any of the premises of Owner wherever such Collateral may be or be supposed to be and search for such Collateral and take possession of and remove such Collateral. All expenses of obtaining such judgment or of pursuing, searching for and taking such property shall, until paid, be secured by the Lien of this Trust Indenture and the other Security Agreements.

 

(b)           Upon every such taking of possession, the Mortgagee may, from time to time, at the expense of the Collateral, make all such expenditures for maintenance, use, operation, storage, insurance, leasing, control, management, disposition, modifications or alterations to and of the Collateral, as it may deem proper. In each such case, the Mortgagee shall have the right to maintain, use, operate, store, insure, lease, control, manage, dispose of, modify or alter the Collateral and to exercise all rights and powers of the Owner relating to the Collateral, as the Mortgagee shall deem best, including the right to enter into any and all such agreements with respect to the maintenance, use, operation, storage, insurance, leasing, control, management, disposition, modification or alteration of the Collateral or any part thereof as the Mortgagee may determine, and the Mortgagee shall be entitled to collect and receive directly all rents, revenues and other proceeds of the Collateral and every part thereof, without prejudice, however, to the right of the Mortgagee under any provision of this Trust Indenture or any other Security Agreement to collect and receive all cash held by, or required to be deposited with, the Mortgagee hereunder or thereunder. Such rents, revenues and other proceeds shall be applied to pay the expenses of the maintenance, use, operation, storage, insurance, leasing, control, management, disposition, improvement, modification or alteration of the Collateral and of conducting the business thereof, and to make all payments which the Mortgagee may be required or may elect to make, if any, for taxes, assessments, insurance or other proper charges upon the Collateral or any part thereof (including the employment of engineers and accountants to examine, inspect and make reports upon the properties and books and records of the Owner), and all other payments which the Mortgagee may be required or authorized to make under any provision of this Trust Indenture or any other Security Agreement, as well as just and reasonable compensation for the services of the Mortgagee, and of all persons properly engaged and employed by the Mortgagee with respect hereto and thereto.

 

SECTION 5.04.  Remedies Cumulative

 

Each and every right, power and remedy given to the Mortgagee specifically or otherwise in this Trust Indenture and the other Security Agreements shall be cumulative and

 

44

 

 

shall be in addition to every other right, power and remedy herein or therein specifically given or now or hereafter existing at Law, in equity or by statute, and each and every right, power and remedy whether specifically herein or therein given or otherwise existing may be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Mortgagee, and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of any power or remedy shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right to exercise at the same time or thereafter any other right, power or remedy. No delay or omission by the Mortgagee in the exercise of any right, remedy or power or in the pursuance of any remedy shall impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any default on the part of the Owner or to be an acquiescence therein.

 

SECTION 5.05.  Discontinuance of Proceedings

 

In case the Mortgagee shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Trust Indenture or any other Security Agreement by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Mortgagee, then and in every such case the Owner and the Mortgagee shall, subject to any determination in such proceedings, be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder and under each other Security Agreement with respect to the Collateral, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Owner or the Mortgagee shall continue as if no such proceedings had been instituted.

 

SECTION 5.06.  Waiver of Past Defaults

 

Upon written instruction from a Majority in Interest of Note Holders, the Mortgagee shall waive any past Default hereunder and its consequences and upon any such waiver such Default shall cease to exist and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Trust Indenture and each other Security Agreement, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon; provided, that in the absence of written instructions from all the Note Holders, the Mortgagee shall not waive any Default (i) in the payment of the Original Amount, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest and other amounts due under any Equipment Note then outstanding, or (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which, under Article X hereof, cannot be modified or amended without the consent of each Note Holder.

 

SECTION 5.07.  Appointment of Receiver

 

The Mortgagee shall, as a matter of right, be entitled to the appointment of a receiver (who may be the Mortgagee or any successor or nominee thereof) for all or any part of the Collateral, whether such receivership be incidental to a proposed sale of the Collateral or the taking of possession thereof or otherwise, and the Owner hereby consents to the appointment of such a receiver and will not oppose any such appointment. Any receiver appointed for all or any part of the Collateral shall be entitled to exercise all the rights and powers of the Mortgagee with respect to the Collateral.

 

45

 

 

SECTION 5.08.  Mortgagee Authorized to Execute Bills of Sale, Etc.

 

The Owner irrevocably appoints, while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Mortgagee the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of the Owner (which appointment is coupled with an interest) in its name and stead and on its behalf, for the purpose of effectuating any sale, assignment, transfer or delivery for the enforcement of the Lien of this Trust Indenture or any other Security Agreement, whether pursuant to foreclosure or power of sale, assignments and other instruments as may be necessary or appropriate, with full power of substitution, the Owner hereby ratifying and confirming all that such attorney or any substitute shall do by virtue hereof in accordance with applicable law. Nevertheless, if so requested by the Mortgagee or any purchaser, the Owner shall ratify and confirm any such sale, assignment, transfer or delivery, by executing and delivering to the Mortgagee or such purchaser all bills of sale, assignments, releases and other proper instruments to effect such ratification and confirmation as may be designated in any such request.

 

SECTION 5.09.  Rights of Note Holders to Receive Payment

 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Indenture or any other Security Agreement, the right of any Note Holder to receive payment of principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on an Equipment Note on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Equipment Note, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates in accordance with the terms hereof, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Note Holder.

 

SECTION 5.10.  Limitations Under CRAF

 

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Trust Indenture or any other Security Agreement, during any period that an Airframe, Engine or Spare Engine is subject to CRAF in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.02(b)(vi) or Section 2.02(b)(vi) of the Spare Engine Security Agreement, as applicable, and in the possession of the U.S. Government, the Mortgagee shall not, as a result of any Event of Default, exercise its remedies hereunder in such manner as to limit the Owner’s control under this Mortgage (or any Permitted Lessee’s control under any Permitted Lease) of such Airframe, Engine or Spare Engine, unless at least 60 days’ (or such other period as may then be applicable under CRAF) written notice of default hereunder shall have been given by the Mortgagee by registered or certified mail to the Owner (and any Permitted Lessee) with a copy to the Contracting Officer Representative or Representatives for the Military Airlift Command of the United States Air Force to whom notices must be given under the contract governing the Owner’s (or any Permitted Lessee’s) participation in CRAF with respect to such Airframe, Engine or Spare Engine.

ARTICLE VI

 

DUTIES OF THE MORTGAGEE

 

SECTION 6.01.  Notice of Event of Default

 

If the Mortgagee shall have Actual Knowledge of an Event of Default or of a Default arising from a failure to pay any installment of principal and interest on any Equipment Note, the Mortgagee shall give prompt written notice thereof to each Note Holder. Subject to the terms of Sections 5.06, 6.02 and 6.03 hereof, the Mortgagee shall take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default or Default (including with respect to the exercise of any rights or remedies hereunder) as the Mortgagee shall be instructed in writing by a Majority in Interest of Note Holders. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.03, if the Mortgagee shall not have received instructions as above provided within 20 days after mailing notice of such Event of Default to the Note Holders, the Mortgagee may, subject to instructions thereafter received pursuant to the preceding provisions of this Section 6.01, take such action, or refrain from taking such action, but shall be under no duty to take or refrain from taking any action, with respect to such Event of Default or Default as it shall determine advisable in the best interests of the Note Holders; provided, however, that the Mortgagee may not sell any part of the Collateral without the consent of a Majority in Interest of Note Holders. For all purposes of this Trust Indenture and each other Security Agreement, in the absence of Actual Knowledge on the part of the Mortgagee, the Mortgagee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of a Default or an Event of Default (except, the failure of Owner to pay any installment of principal or interest within one Business Day after the same shall become due, which failure shall constitute knowledge of a Default) unless notified in writing by the Owner or one or more Note Holders.

 

SECTION 6.02.  Action Upon Instructions; Certain Rights and Limitations

 

Subject to the terms of Sections 5.02(a), 5.06, 6.01 and 6.03 hereof, upon the written instructions at any time and from time to time of a Majority in Interest of Note Holders, the Mortgagee shall, subject to the terms of this Section 6.02, take such of the following actions as may be specified in such instructions: (i) give such notice or direction or exercise such right, remedy or power hereunder or under any other Security Agreement as shall be specified in such instructions and (ii) give such notice or direction or exercise such right, remedy or power hereunder or under any other Security Agreement with respect to any part of the Collateral as shall be specified in such instructions; it being understood that without the written instructions of a Majority in Interest of Note Holders, the Mortgagee shall not, except as provided in Section 6.01, approve any such matter as satisfactory to the Mortgagee.

 

The Mortgagee will execute and the Owner will file such continuation statements with respect to financing statements relating to the security interest created hereunder or under any other applicable Security Agreement in the Collateral as may be specified from time to time in written instructions of a Majority in Interest of Note Holders (which instructions shall be accompanied by the form of such continuation statement so to be filed). The Mortgagee will furnish to each Note Holder, promptly upon receipt thereof, duplicates or copies of all reports,

 

47

 

 

notices, requests, demands, certificates and other instruments furnished to the Mortgagee hereunder or under any other Security Agreement.

 

SECTION 6.03.  Indemnification

 

The Mortgagee shall not be required to take any action or refrain from taking any action under Section 6.01 (other than the first sentence thereof), 6.02 or Article V hereof unless the Mortgagee shall have been indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction against any liability, cost or expense (including counsel fees) which may be incurred in connection therewith pursuant to a written agreement with one or more Note Holders. The Mortgagee agrees that it shall look solely to the Note Holders for the satisfaction of any indemnity (except expenses for foreclosure of the type referred to in clause “First” of Section 3.03 hereof) owed to it pursuant to this Section 6.03. The Mortgagee shall not be under any obligation to take any action under this Trust Indenture, any other Security Agreement or any other Operative Agreement and nothing herein or therein shall require the Mortgagee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur the risk of any financial liability in the performance of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it (the written indemnity of any Note Holder who is a QIB, signed by an authorized officer thereof, in favor of, delivered to and in form reasonably satisfactory to the Mortgagee shall be accepted as reasonable assurance of adequate indemnity). The Mortgagee shall not be required to take any action under Section 6.01 (other than the first sentence thereof) or 6.02 or Article V hereof, nor shall any other provision of this Trust Indenture, any other Security Agreement or any other Operative Agreement be deemed to impose a duty on the Mortgagee to take any action, if the Mortgagee shall have been advised by counsel that such action is contrary to the terms hereof or is otherwise contrary to Law.

 

SECTION 6.04.  No Duties Except as Specified in Security Agreement or Instructions

 

The Mortgagee shall not have any duty or obligation to use, operate, store, lease, control, manage, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with any part of the Collateral, or to otherwise take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, any Security Agreement or any part of the Collateral, except as expressly provided by the terms of the Security Agreements or as expressly provided in written instructions from Note Holders as provided in this Trust Indenture; and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into any Security Agreement against the Mortgagee. The Mortgagee agrees that it will in its individual capacity and at its own cost and expense (but without any right of indemnity in respect of any such cost or expense under Section 8.01 hereof), promptly take such action as may be necessary duly to discharge all liens and encumbrances on any part of the Collateral which result from claims against it in its individual capacity not related to the administration of the Collateral or any other transaction pursuant to any Security Agreement or any document included in the Collateral.

 

48

 

 

SECTION 6.05.  No Action Except Under Security Agreements or Instructions

 

The Mortgagee will not use, operate, store, lease, control, manage, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with any part of the Collateral except in accordance with the powers granted to, or the authority conferred upon the Mortgagee pursuant to the Security Agreements and in accordance with the express terms thereof.

 

SECTION 6.06.  Investment of Amounts Held by Mortgagee

 

Any amounts held by the Mortgagee pursuant to Section 3.02, 3.03 or 3.07 or pursuant to any provision of any other Operative Agreement providing for amounts to be held by the Mortgagee which are not distributed pursuant to the other provisions of Article III hereof shall be invested by the Mortgagee from time to time in Cash Equivalents as directed by the Owner so long as the Mortgagee may acquire the same using its best efforts. All Cash Equivalents held by the Mortgagee pursuant to this Section 6.06 shall either be (a) registered in the name of, payable to the order of, or specially endorsed to, the Mortgagee, or (b) held in an Eligible Account. Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Trust Indenture or another Security Agreement, any income realized as a result of any such investment, net of the Mortgagee’s reasonable fees and expenses in making such investment, shall be held and applied by the Mortgagee, in the same manner as the principal amount of such investment is to be applied and any losses, net of earnings and such reasonable fees and expenses, shall be charged against the principal amount invested. The Mortgagee shall not be liable for any loss resulting from any investment required to be made by it under this Trust Indenture or any other Security Agreement other than by reason of its willful misconduct or gross negligence or negligence in the handling of funds, and any such investment may be sold (without regard to its maturity) by the Mortgagee without instructions whenever such sale is necessary to make a distribution required by this Trust Indenture or another Security Agreement.

The Mortgagee, in its individual capacity, shall not be answerable or accountable under any circumstances, except (i) for its own willful misconduct or gross negligence (other than for the handling of funds, for which the standard of accountability shall be willful misconduct or negligence), (ii) as provided in the fourth sentence of Section 2.04(a) hereof and the last sentence of Section 6.04 hereof, and (iii) from the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of the Mortgagee (in its individual capacity) in the Note Purchase Agreement or expressly made hereunder or under any other Security Agreement.

SECTION 7.03.  No Representations or Warranties as to Collateral or Documents

 

THE MORTGAGEE IN ITS INDIVIDUAL OR TRUST CAPACITY DOES NOT MAKE AND SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO HAVE MADE AND HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO THE TITLE, AIRWORTHINESS, VALUE, COMPLIANCE WITH SPECIFICATIONS, CONDITION, DESIGN, QUALITY, DURABILITY, OPERATION, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR USE FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OF ANY COLLATERAL, AS TO THE ABSENCE OF LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS, WHETHER OR NOT DISCOVERABLE, AS TO THE ABSENCE OF ANY INFRINGEMENT OF ANY PATENT, TRADEMARK OR COPYRIGHT, AS TO THE ABSENCE OF OBLIGATIONS BASED ON STRICT LIABILITY IN TORT OR ANY OTHER REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY WHATSOEVER. The Mortgagee, in its individual or trust capacities, does not make or shall not be deemed to have made any representation or warranty as to the validity, legality or enforceability of this Trust Indenture, the other Security Agreements, the Note Purchase Agreement, or the Equipment Notes, or as to the correctness of any statement contained in any thereof, except for the representations and warranties of the Owner made in its individual capacity and the representations and warranties of the Mortgagee in its individual capacity, in each case expressly made in this Trust Indenture, another Security Agreement or in the Note Purchase Agreement.

Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.07 hereof, any monies paid to or retained by the Mortgagee pursuant to any provision hereof and not then required to be distributed to the Note Holders, or the Owner as provided in Article III hereof need not be segregated in any manner except to the extent required by Law or Section 6.06 hereof, and may be deposited under such general conditions as may be prescribed by Law, and the Mortgagee shall not be liable for any interest thereon (except that the Mortgagee shall invest all monies held

 

50

 

 

as directed by Owner so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (or in the absence of such direction, by the Majority In Interest of Note Holders) in Cash Equivalents); provided, however, that any payments received, or applied hereunder, by the Mortgagee shall be accounted for by the Mortgagee so that any portion thereof paid or applied pursuant hereto shall be identifiable as to the source thereof.

 

SECTION 7.05.  Reliance; Agreements; Advice of Counsel

 

The Mortgagee shall not incur any liability to anyone in acting upon any signature, instrument, notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate, report, opinion, bond or other document or paper believed by it to be genuine and believed by it to be signed by the proper party or parties. The Mortgagee may accept a copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors (or Executive Committee thereof) of the Owner, certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary thereof as duly adopted and in full force and effect, as conclusive evidence that such resolution has been duly adopted and that the same is in full force and effect. As to the aggregate unpaid Original Amount of Equipment Notes outstanding as of any date, the Owner may for all purposes hereof rely on a certificate signed by any Vice President or other authorized corporate trust officer of the Mortgagee. As to any fact or matter relating to the Owner the manner of the ascertainment of which is not specifically described herein or in another Security Agreement, the Mortgagee may for all purposes hereof rely on a certificate, signed by a duly authorized officer of the Owner, as to such fact or matter, and such certificate shall constitute full protection to the Mortgagee for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in reliance thereon. In the administration of the trusts hereunder and under the other Security Agreements, the Mortgagee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereof and perform its powers and duties hereunder and under the other Security Agreements directly or through agents or attorneys and may, at the expense of the Collateral, advise with counsel, accountants and other skilled persons to be selected and retained by it, and the Mortgagee shall not be liable for anything done, suffered or omitted in good faith by it in accordance with the written advice or written opinion of any such counsel, accountants or other skilled persons.

The Mortgagee agrees that it shall have no right against the Note Holders for any fee as compensation for its services as trustee under the Security Agreements.

 

SECTION 7.07.  Instructions from Note Holders

 

In the administration of the trusts created hereunder and under the other Security Agreements, the Mortgagee shall have the right to seek instructions from a Majority in Interest of

 

51

SUCCESSOR AND SEPARATE TRUSTEES

 

SECTION 9.01.  Resignation of Mortgagee; Appointment of Successor

 

(a)           The Mortgagee or any successor thereto may resign at any time without cause by giving at least 30 days’ prior written notice to the Owner and each Note Holder, such resignation to be effective upon the acceptance of the trusteeship by a successor Mortgagee. In addition, a Majority in Interest of Note Holders may at any time (but only with the consent of Owner, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, except that such consent shall not be necessary if an Event of Default is continuing) remove the Mortgagee without cause by an instrument in writing delivered to the Owner and the Mortgagee, and the Mortgagee shall promptly notify each Note Holder thereof in writing, such removal to be effective upon the acceptance of the trusteeship by a successor Mortgagee. In the case of the resignation or removal of the Mortgagee, a Majority in Interest of Note Holders may appoint a successor Mortgagee by an instrument signed by such holders, which successor, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, shall be subject to Owner’s reasonable approval. If a successor Mortgagee shall not have been appointed within 30 days after such notice of resignation or removal, the Mortgagee, the Owner or any Note Holder may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Mortgagee to act until such time, if any, as a successor shall have been appointed as above provided. The successor Mortgagee so appointed by such court shall immediately and without further act be superseded by any successor Mortgagee appointed as above provided.

 

(b)          Any successor Mortgagee, however appointed, shall execute and deliver to the Owner and the predecessor Mortgagee an instrument accepting such appointment and assuming the obligations of the Mortgagee arising from and after the time of such appointment, and thereupon such successor Mortgagee, without further act, shall become vested with all the estates, properties, rights, powers and duties of the predecessor Mortgagee hereunder

 

52

 

 

in the trust under the Security Agreements applicable to it with like effect as if originally named the Mortgagee herein and in each other Security Agreement; but nevertheless upon the written request of such successor Mortgagee, such predecessor Mortgagee shall execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Mortgagee, upon the trusts herein (and in each other Security Agreement) expressed applicable to it, all the estates, properties, rights and powers of such predecessor Mortgagee, and such predecessor Mortgagee shall duly assign, transfer, deliver and pay over to such successor Mortgagee all monies or other property then held by such predecessor Mortgagee under the Security Agreements.

 

(c)           Any successor Mortgagee, however appointed, shall be a bank or trust company having its principal place of business in the Borough of Manhattan, City and State of New York; Chicago, Illinois; Hartford, Connecticut; Wilmington, Delaware; or Boston, Massachusetts and having (or whose obligations under the Operative Agreements are guaranteed by an affiliated entity having) a combined capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000, if there be such an institution willing, able and legally qualified to perform the duties of the Mortgagee under the Security Agreements upon reasonable or customary terms.

 

(d)           Any corporation into which the Mortgagee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Mortgagee shall be a party, or any corporation to which substantially all the corporate trust business of the Mortgagee may be transferred, shall, subject to the terms of paragraph (c) of this Section 9.01, be a successor Mortgagee and the Mortgagee under this Trust Indenture and each other Security Agreement without further act.

 

(e)           The Owner consents to any change in the identity of the Mortgagee on the International Registry occasioned by provisions of this Section 9.01, and if required by the International Registry to reflect such change, will provide its consent thereto.

 

SECTION 9.02.  Appointment of Additional and Separate Trustees

 

(a)           Whenever (i) the Mortgagee shall deem it necessary or desirable in order to conform to any Law of any jurisdiction in which all or any part of the Collateral shall be situated or to make any claim or bring any suit with respect to or in connection with the Collateral, this Trust Indenture, any other Security Agreement, any Pledged Aircraft Agreement, any Pledged Spare Engines Agreement, any Pledged Spare Parts Agreement, the Equipment Notes or any of the transactions contemplated by the Note Purchase Agreement, (ii) the Mortgagee shall be advised by counsel satisfactory to it that it is so necessary or prudent in the interests of the Note Holders (and the Mortgagee shall so advise the Owner), or (iii) the Mortgagee shall have been requested to do so by a Majority in Interest of Note Holders, then in any such case, the Mortgagee and, upon the written request of the Mortgagee, the Owner, shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto and such other instruments as may from time to time be necessary or advisable either (1) to constitute one or more bank or trust companies or one or more persons approved by the Mortgagee, either to act jointly with the Mortgagee as additional trustee or trustees of all or any part of the Collateral, or to act as separate trustee or trustees of all or any part of the Collateral, in each case with such rights, powers, duties and obligations consistent with this Trust Indenture and each other Security

Agreement as may be provided in such supplemental indenture or other instruments as the Mortgagee or a Majority in Interest of Note Holders may deem necessary or advisable, or (2) to clarify, add to or subtract from the rights, powers, duties and obligations theretofore granted any such additional or separate trustee, subject in each case to the remaining provisions of this Section 9.02. If the Owner shall not have taken any action requested of it under this Section 9.02(a) that is permitted or required by its terms within 15 days after the receipt of a written request from the Mortgagee so to do, or if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Mortgagee may act under the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.02(a) without the concurrence of the Owner, and the Owner hereby irrevocably appoints (which appointment is coupled with an interest) the Mortgagee, its agent and attorney-in-fact to act for it under the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.02(a) in either of such contingencies. The Mortgagee may, in such capacity, execute, deliver and perform any such supplemental indenture, or any such instrument, as may be required for the appointment of any such additional or separate trustee or for the clarification of, addition to or subtraction from the rights, powers, duties or obligations theretofore granted to any such additional or separate trustee. In case any additional or separate trustee appointed under this Section 9.02(a) shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be moved, all the assets, property, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of such additional or separate trustee shall revert to the Mortgagee until a successor additional or separate trustee is appointed as provided in this Section 9.02(a).

 

(b)           No additional or separate trustee shall be entitled to exercise any of the rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred upon the Mortgagee in respect of the custody, investment and payment of monies and all monies received by any such additional or separate trustee from or constituting part of the Collateral or otherwise payable under any Operative Agreement to the Mortgagee shall be promptly paid over by it to the Mortgagee. All other rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon any additional or separate trustee shall be exercised or performed by the Mortgagee and such additional or separate trustee jointly except to the extent that applicable Law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act is to be performed renders the Mortgagee incompetent or unqualified to perform such act, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to all or part of the Collateral in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed by such additional or separate trustee. No additional or separate trustee shall take any discretionary action except on the instructions of the Mortgagee or a Majority in Interest of Note Holders. No trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder, except that the Mortgagee shall be liable for the consequences of its lack of reasonable care in selecting, and the Mortgagee’s own actions in acting with, any additional or separate trustee. Each additional or separate trustee appointed pursuant to this Section 9.02 shall be subject to, and shall have the benefit of Articles V through IX and Article XI hereof insofar as they apply to the Mortgagee. The powers of any additional or separate trustee appointed pursuant to this Section 9.02 shall not in any case exceed those of the Mortgagee under the Security Agreements.

 

(c)           If at any time the Mortgagee shall deem it no longer necessary or in order to conform to any such Law or take any such action or shall be advised by such counsel that it is no longer so necessary or desirable in the interest of the Note Holders, or in the event that the Mortgagee shall have been requested to do so in writing by a Majority in Interest of Note Holders, the Mortgagee and, upon the written request of the Mortgagee, the Owner, shall execute

Owner (or Permitted Lessee) need not maintain cargo liability insurance with respect to any Airframe (or any Aircraft), or may maintain such insurance in an amount less than the Minimum Liability Insurance Amount, as long as the amount of the cargo liability insurance, if any, maintained with respect to such Airframe (or Aircraft) is not less than the amount of such coverage which is maintained by Owner (or Permitted Lessee) for other aircraft owned or leased by Owner (or Permitted Lessee) that are similar in type to such Aircraft and operated by Owner (or Permitted Lessee) on the same or similar routes.

 

2.            During any period that an Aircraft, Airframe or Engine is on the ground and not in operation, Owner (or Permitted Lessee) may carry or cause to be carried, in lieu of the insurance required by Section A.1 above, insurance otherwise conforming with the provisions of said Section A.1 except that (i) the amounts of coverage shall not be required to exceed the amounts of public liability and property damage insurance from time to time applicable to aircraft owned or operated by Owner (or Permitted Lessee) of the same type as such Aircraft, Airframe or Engine which is on the ground and not in operation and (ii) the scope of the risks covered and the type of insurance shall be the same as from time to time shall be applicable to aircraft, airframes or engines, as applicable, owned or operated by Owner (or Permitted Lessee) of the same type which are on the ground and not in operation.

 

B.            Hull Insurance

 

1.            Except as provided in Section B.2 below, Owner (or Permitted Lessee) will carry or cause to be carried at all times, at no expense to Mortgagee, with Approved Insurers “all-risk” ground and flight aircraft hull insurance covering each Aircraft (including the Engines when they

 

 

are installed on any Airframe or any other airframe) which is of the type as from time to time applicable to aircraft, airframes and engines owned by Owner (or Permitted Lessee) of the same type as such Aircraft for an amount denominated in United States Dollars not less than the applicable Minimum Insurance Amount.

 

Any policies of insurance carried in accordance with this Section B.1 or Section C covering any Aircraft, Airframe or Engine and any policies taken out in substitution or replacement for any such policies (i) shall name Mortgagee as exclusive loss payee for any proceeds to be paid under such policies up to an amount equal to the applicable Minimum Insurance Amount and (ii) shall provide that (A) in the event of a loss involving proceeds in excess of the Threshold Amount, the proceeds in respect of such loss up to an amount equal to the applicable Minimum Insurance Amount shall be payable to the Mortgagee, except in the case of a loss with respect to an Engine installed on an airframe other than an Airframe, in which case Owner (or any Permitted Lessee) shall endeavor to arrange for any payment of insurance proceeds in respect of such loss to be held for the account of the Mortgagee whether such payment is made to Owner (or any Permitted Lessee) or any third party, it being understood and agreed that in the case of any payment to Mortgagee otherwise than in respect of an Aircraft Event of Loss, the Mortgagee shall, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to it that the damage giving rise to such payment shall have been repaired or that such payment shall then be required to pay for repairs then being made, pay the amount of such payment to Owner or its order, and (B) the entire amount of any loss involving proceeds of the Threshold Amount or less or the amount of any proceeds of any loss in excess of the applicable Minimum Insurance Amount shall be paid to Owner or its order unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the insurers have been notified thereof by the Mortgagee. In the case of a loss with respect to an engine (other than an Engine) installed on an Airframe, Mortgagee shall hold any payment to it of any insurance proceeds in respect of such loss for the account of Owner or any other third party that is entitled to receive such proceeds.

 

2.            During any period that an Aircraft, Airframe or Engine is on the ground and not in operation, Owner (or Permitted Lessee) may carry or cause to be carried, in lieu of the insurance required by Section B.1 above, insurance otherwise conforming with the provisions of said Section B.1 except that the scope of the risks and the type of insurance shall be the same as from time to time applicable to aircraft owned by Owner (or Permitted Lessee) of the same type as such Aircraft, Airframe or Engine similarly on the ground and not in operation, provided that Owner (or Permitted Lessee) shall maintain insurance against risk of loss or damage to such Aircraft, Airframe or Engine in an amount at least equal to the applicable Minimum Insurance Amount during such period that such Aircraft, Airframe or Engine is on the ground and not in operation.

(d)            Maintenance and Repair. So long as a Spare Engine is subject to the Lien of this Agreement, the Owner shall cause such Spare Engine to be maintained, serviced, repaired and overhauled in accordance with (i) maintenance standards required by or substantially equivalent to those required by the FAA, the EASA or the central aviation authority of Canada or Japan for such Spare Engine, so as to keep such Spare Engine in good operating condition, except during (x) periods of storage or (y) maintenance and modification permitted hereunder; and (ii) except during periods when a Permitted Lease with respect to such Spare Engine is in effect, the same standards as the Owner uses with respect to similar engines in its fleet operated by the Owner in similar circumstances and, during any period in which a Permitted Lease with respect to such Spare Engine is in effect, the same standards used by the Permitted Lessee with respect to similar engines in its fleet and operated by the Permitted Lessee in similar circumstances (it being understood that this clause (ii) shall not limit the Owner’s obligations under the preceding clause (i)). The Owner further agrees that each Spare Engine will be maintained, used, serviced, repaired, overhauled or inspected in compliance with applicable Laws with respect to the maintenance of such Spare Engine and in compliance with each applicable airworthiness certificate license and registration relating to such Spare Engine issued by the Aviation Authority, other than minor or nonrecurring violations with respect to which corrective measures are taken upon discovery thereof and except to the extent the Owner or Permitted Lessee is contesting in good faith the validity or application of any such Law or requirement relating to any such certificate, license or registration in any reasonable manner which does not create a material risk of sale, loss or forfeiture of such Spare Engine or the interest of the Mortgagee therein, or any material risk of criminal liability or material civil penalty against the Mortgagee. The Owner shall maintain or cause to be maintained the Spare Engine Documents in the English language.

 

(e)            Certain Filings. Unless this Agreement has been discharged, Owner shall also cause this Agreement to be duly recorded and at all times maintained of record as first priority perfected mortgage (subject to Permitted Liens) on each Spare Engine (except to the extent such perfection or priority cannot be maintained solely as a result of the failure by Mortgagee to execute and deliver any necessary documents). Unless the Lien of this Agreement has been discharged, Owner shall cause the International Interest granted under this Agreement in favor of the Mortgagee in each Spare Engine to be registered on the International Registry as an International Interest on such Spare Engine, subject to the Mortgagee providing its consent to the International Registry with respect thereto.

 

(f)            Markings. If permitted by applicable Law, on or reasonably promptly after the Applicable Date with respect to a Spare Engine, Owner will cause to be affixed to each Spare Engine, in a clearly visible location, a placard of a reasonable size and shape bearing the legend: “Subject to a security interest in favor of Wilmington Trust, National Association, not in its individual capacity but solely as Mortgagee.” Such placards may be removed temporarily, if necessary, in the course of maintenance of the Spare Engines. If any such placard is damaged or becomes illegible, Owner shall promptly replace it with a placard complying with the requirements of this Section.

SECTION 2.03.      Replacement and Pooling of Parts, Alterations, Modifications and Additions; Substitution Rights.

 

(a)            Replacement of Parts. Except as otherwise provided herein, so long as a Spare Engine is subject to the Lien of this Agreement, the Owner, at its own cost and expense, will, or will cause a Permitted Lessee to, at its own cost and expense, promptly replace (or cause to be replaced) all Parts which may from time to time be incorporated or installed in or attached to such Spare Engine and which may from time to time become worn out, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged beyond repair or permanently rendered unfit for use for any reason whatsoever. In addition, the Owner may, at its own cost and expense, or may permit a Permitted Lessee at its own cost and expense to, remove (or cause to be removed) in the ordinary course of maintenance, service, repair, overhaul or testing any Parts, whether or not worn out, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged beyond repair or permanently rendered unfit for use; provided, however, that the Owner, except as otherwise provided herein, at its own cost and expense, will, or will cause a Permitted Lessee at its own cost and expense to, replace such Parts as promptly as practicable. All replacement parts shall be free and clear of all Liens, except for Permitted Liens and pooling arrangements to the extent permitted by Section 2.03(c) below (and except in the case of replacement property temporarily installed on an emergency basis) and shall be in as good an operating condition and have a value and utility not less than the value and utility of the Parts replaced (assuming such replaced Parts were in the condition required hereunder).

 

(b)            Parts. Except as otherwise provided herein, any Part at any time removed from a Spare Engine shall remain subject to the Lien of this Agreement, no matter where located, until such time as such Part shall be replaced by a part that has been incorporated or installed in or attached to such Spare Engine and that meets the requirements for replacement parts specified above. Immediately upon any replacement part becoming incorporated or installed in or attached to such Spare Engine as provided in Section 2.03(a), without further act, (i) the replaced Part shall thereupon be free and clear of all rights of the Mortgagee and shall no longer be deemed a Part hereunder, and (ii) such replacement part shall become a Part subject to this Agreement and be deemed part of such Spare Engine for all purposes hereof to the same extent as the Parts originally incorporated or installed in or attached to such Spare Engine.

 

(c)            Pooling of Parts. Any Part removed from a Spare Engine may be subjected by the Owner or a Permitted Lessee to a normal pooling arrangement customary in the airline industry and entered into in the ordinary course of business of the Owner or Permitted Lessee, provided that the part replacing such removed Part shall be incorporated or installed in or attached to such Spare Engine in accordance with Sections 2.03(a) and 2.03(b) as promptly as practicable after the removal of such removed Part. In addition, any replacement part when incorporated or installed in or attached to a Spare Engine may be owned by any third party, subject to a normal pooling arrangement, so long as the Owner or a Permitted Lessee, at its own cost and expense, as promptly thereafter as reasonably possible, either (i) causes such replacement Part to become subject to the Lien of this Agreement, free and clear of all Liens except Permitted Liens, at which time such replacement part shall become a Part or (ii) replaces (or causes to be replaced) such replacement Part by incorporating or installing in or attaching to such Spare Engine a further replacement part owned by the Owner free and clear of all Liens

 

 9 

 

 

except Permitted Liens and which shall become subject to the Lien of this Agreement in accordance with Section 2.03(b).

 

(d)            Alterations, Modifications and Additions. The Owner shall, or shall cause a Permitted Lessee to, make (or cause to be made) any Mandatory Modification in respect of any Spare Engine; provided, however, that the Owner or a Permitted Lessee may, in good faith and by appropriate procedure, contest the validity or application of any law, rule, regulation or order in any reasonable manner which does not materially adversely affect Mortgagee’s interest in such Spare Engine, does not impair the Mortgagee’s security interest or International Interest in such Spare Engine and does not involve any material risk of sale, forfeiture or loss of such Spare Engine or the interest of Mortgagee therein, or any material risk of material civil penalty or any material risk of criminal liability being imposed on the Mortgagee or the holder of any Equipment Note. In addition, the Owner, at its own expense, may, or may permit a Permitted Lessee at its own cost and expense to, from time to time make or cause to be made an Optional Modification to any Spare Engine; provided, however, that no such Optional Modification shall materially diminish the fair market value, utility, or useful life of such Spare Engine below its fair market value, utility or useful life immediately prior to such Optional Modification (assuming such Spare Engine was in the condition required by this Agreement immediately prior to such Optional Modification). All Parts incorporated or installed in or attached to any Spare Engine as the result of any alteration, modification or addition effected by the Owner shall be free and clear of any Liens except Permitted Liens and become subject to the Lien of this Agreement; provided that the Owner or any Permitted Lessee may, at any time so long as any Spare Engine is subject to the Lien of this Agreement, remove any such Part (such Part being referred to herein as a “Removable Spare Engine Part”) from such Spare Engine if (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 such Spare Engine at the time of original delivery thereof by the Manufacturer or any Part in replacement of, or in substitution for, any such original Part, (ii) such Part is not required to be incorporated or installed in or attached or added to such Spare Engine pursuant to the terms of Section 2.02(d) or the first sentence of this Section 2.03(d) and (iii) such Part can be removed from such Spare Engine without materially diminishing the fair market value, utility or remaining useful life which such Spare Engine would have had at the time of removal had such removal not been effected by the Owner, assuming such Spare Engine was otherwise maintained in the condition required by this Agreement and such Removable Spare Engine Part had not been incorporated or installed in or attached to such Spare Engine. Upon the removal by the Owner of any such Part as above provided in this Section 2.03(d), title thereto shall, without further act, be free and clear of all rights of the Mortgagee and such Part shall no longer be deemed a Part hereunder. Removable Spare Engine Parts may be leased from or financed by third parties other than Mortgagee.

 

(e)            Substitution of Spare Engines. Owner shall have the right at its option at any time, on at least five Business Days’ prior written notice to the Mortgagee, to substitute one or more Substitute Spare Engines, free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens), for one or more Spare Engines, in each case, so long as:

 

(i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of substitution;

 

 10 

 

 

(ii) each Substitute Spare Engine may be the same or a different model and manufactured by the same or a different manufacturer than the Spare Engine(s) being replaced by such Substitute Spare Engine; provided that such Substitute Spare Engine may not be a model that has been fully retired or has been announced for such retirement by the Owner and shall not be of a type that is associated exclusively with one or more aircraft models that would not satisfy the type certification condition in Section 4.2(c) of the Collateral Maintenance Annex;

  

(iii) such Substitute Spare Engine shall have an Appraised Value (or such Substitute Spare Engines collectively shall have an Aggregate Appraised Value) that is at least equal to 110% of the Appraised Value of the Spare Engine (or the Aggregate Appraised Value of the Spare Engines) being replaced; and

 

(iv) no failure to comply with a Composition Test shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of substitution (unless such substitution would improve compliance, or otherwise not worsen any noncompliance, with such Composition Test).

 

Prior to or at the time of any substitution under this Section 2.03(e), the Owner shall cause the Substitute Spare Engine(s) to be subject to the Lien of this Agreement free and clear of Liens (other than Permitted Liens), and, in connection therewith, satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 4.3 of the Collateral Maintenance Annex, in addition to the other conditions contained in this Section 2.03(e).

 

For all purposes hereof, upon the attachment of the Lien of this Agreement thereto, a Substitute Spare Engine shall become part of the Spare Engines Collateral and shall be deemed a “Spare Engine” as defined herein. Upon compliance with the conditions set forth in this Section 2.03(e) above, the Mortgagee shall execute and deliver to Owner an appropriate instrument releasing the replaced Spare Engine(s) and all proceeds (including, without limitation, requisition proceeds and insurance proceeds, if any) with respect to the replaced Spare Engine(s), and all rights relating to the foregoing, from the Lien of this Agreement, and will take such actions as may be required to be taken by the Mortgagee to discharge any International Interest of the Mortgagee registered with the International Registry in relation to such replaced Spare Engine(s).

 

SECTION 2.04.      Loss, Destruction or Requisition

 

(a)            Spare Engine Event of Loss. Upon the occurrence of a Spare Engine Event of Loss, Owner shall promptly (and in any event within 15 days after such occurrence) give the Mortgagee written notice of such Spare Engine Event of Loss.

(c)            Indemnification by Government in Lieu of Insurance. Mortgagee agrees to accept, in lieu of insurance against any risk with respect to any Spare Engine Aircraft or Spare Engine described in Annex A, indemnification from, or insurance provided by, the U.S. Government, or upon the written consent of Mortgagee, other Government Entity, against such risk in an amount that, when added to the amount of insurance (including permitted self-insurance), if any, against such risk that Owner (or any Permitted Lessee) may continue to

1.            Except as provided in Section B.2 below, the Owner (or Permitted Lessee) will carry or cause to be carried at all times, at no expense to Mortgagee, with Approved Insurers “all-risk” ground and flight aircraft hull insurance covering each Spare Engine (including any Spare Engine when it is installed or any airframe) which is of the type as from time to time applicable to engines owned by the Owner (or Permitted Lessee) of the same type as such Spare Engine for an amount denominated in United States Dollars not less than the Minimum Insurance Amount with respect to such Spare Engine.

 

Any policies of insurance carried in accordance with this Section B.1 or Section C covering the Spare Engines and any policies taken out in substitution or replacement for any such policies (i) shall name Mortgagee as exclusive loss payee for any proceeds to be paid under

 

 Annex A - 1

(iv)          shall provide that, if the insurers cancel such insurance for any reason whatsoever, or if the same is allowed to lapse for nonpayment of premium, or if any material change is made in the insurance which adversely affects the interest of any of the Additional Insureds, such cancellation, lapse or change shall not be effective as to the Additional Insureds for thirty (30) days (seven (7) days in the case of war risk, hijacking and allied perils insurance and ten (10) days in the case of nonpayment of premium) after receipt by the Additional Insureds of written notice by such insurers of such cancellation, lapse or change, provided that if any notice period specified above is not reasonably obtainable, such policies shall provide for as long a period of prior notice as shall then be reasonably obtainable;

E.             Reports and Certificates; Other Information

 

On or prior to the Applicable Date with respect to each Spare Engine, and on or prior to each renewal date of the insurance policies required hereunder, the Owner (or Permitted Lessee) will furnish or cause to be furnished to Mortgagee insurance certificates describing in reasonable detail the insurance maintained by the Owner (or Permitted Lessee) hereunder and a report, signed by the Owner’s (or Permitted Lessee’s) regularly retained independent insurance broker (the “Insurance Broker”), stating the opinion of such Insurance Broker that such insurance (a) is in full force and effect on such Spare Engine and (b) complies with the terms of this Annex A, except that such opinion shall not be required with respect to war risk insurance or indemnity provided by the U.S. Government. To the extent such agreement is reasonably obtainable the Owner (or Permitted Lessee) will also cause the Insurance Broker to agree to advise Mortgagee in writing of any default in the payment of any premium and of any other act or omission on the part of the Owner (or Permitted Lessee) of which it has knowledge and which might invalidate or render unenforceable, in whole or in part, any insurance on the Spare Engines required hereunder or cause the cancellation or termination of such insurance, and to advise Mortgagee in writing at least thirty (30) days (seven (7) days in the case of war-risk and allied perils coverage and ten (10) days in the case of nonpayment of premium, or such shorter period as may be available in the international insurance market, as the case may be) prior to the cancellation, lapse or material adverse change of any insurance maintained pursuant to this Annex A.

 

F.             Right to Pay Premiums

 

The Additional Insureds shall have the rights but not the obligations of an additional named insured with respect to paying premiums. None of Mortgagee and the other Additional Insured shall have any obligation to pay any premium, commission, assessment or call due on any such insurance (including reinsurance). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of cancellation of any insurance due to the nonpayment of premiums, Mortgagee shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to pay any such premium in respect of any Spare Engine that is due in respect of the coverage pursuant to this Agreement and to maintain such coverage, as the Mortgagee may require, until the scheduled expiry date of such insurance and, in such event, the Owner shall, upon demand, reimburse the Mortgagee for amounts so paid by them.

 

G.            Deductibles; Self-insurance

 

The Owner (or Permitted Lessee) may self-insure by way of deductible, premium adjustment or franchise provisions or otherwise (including, with respect to insurance maintained pursuant to Section B, insuring for a maximum amount which is less than the applicable Minimum Insurance Amount) in the insurance covering the risks required to be insured against pursuant to Section 2.05 of the Agreement and this Annex A under a program applicable to all aircraft (including engines) in the Owner’s (or Permitted Lessee’s) fleet, but in no case shall the aggregate amount of self-insurance in regard to Section 2.05 of the Agreement and this Annex A exceed during any policy year, with respect to all of the aircraft (including engines) in the Owner’s (or Permitted Lessee’s) fleet (including, without limitation, the Spare Engines), the lesser of (a) 100% of the largest replacement value of any single aircraft (including engines) in the Owner’s fleet and (b) 1-1/2% of the average aggregate insurable value (during the preceding

 

Annex A - 4

 

 

policy year) of all aircraft, airframes and engines (including, without limitation, the Spare Engines) (including, without limitation, the Spare Engines) on which the Owner carries insurance, unless an insurance broker of national standing shall certify that the standard among all other major U.S. airlines is a higher level of self-insurance, in which case the Owner may self-insure to such higher level. In addition, the Owner (and any Permitted Lessee) may self-insure to the extent of any applicable deductible per aircraft, airframe or engine that does not exceed industry standards for major U.S. airlines.

 

H.            Salvage Rights; Other. All salvage rights to each Spare Engine shall remain with Owner’s insurers at all times, and any insurance policies of the Mortgagee insuring any Spare Engine shall provide for a release to Owner of any and all salvage rights in and to any Spare Engine.

No purchaser in good faith of property purporting to be transferred pursuant to Section 2.03(a) shall be bound to ascertain or inquire into the authority of the Owner to make any such transfer, free and clear of the Lien of this Agreement.

At any time or from time to time after the receipt by the Mortgagee of insurance proceeds, upon submission to the Mortgagee of an Officer’s Certificate stating that the Owner has after the occurrence of such Event of Loss purchased (or will purchase) additional Qualified Spare Parts that are located at or have been shipped by vendor(s) to a Designated Location, and stating the aggregate purchase price for such additional Qualified Spare Parts, the Mortgagee shall pay the amount of such purchase price, up to the amount of such insurance proceeds not previously disbursed pursuant to this sentence or otherwise distributed under this Agreement or the Intercreditor Agreement, to the Owner or its designee.

(iii)           If either the Mortgagee or the Owner receives a payment of such insurance proceeds in excess of its entitlement pursuant to this Agreement, it shall promptly pay such excess to the other.

 

(e)           Additional Disbursements to Owner. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.05(d) above, Annex A hereto or in the Collateral Maintenance Annex, if Owner has delivered to Mortgagee an Officer’s Certificate of Owner with calculations demonstrating that as of such date no Collateral Trigger Event exists, or after giving effect to disbursement of insurance proceeds being requested by Owner hereunder, will occur (as determined on a pro forma basis on the basis of the most recent Appraisal), then any such insurance proceeds with respect to Pledged Spare Parts will be paid over, and retained by, Owner (and not paid over to Mortgagee).

 

(f)            Application of Payments During Existence of a Special Default or Event of Default. Any amount described in this Section 2.05 that is payable or creditable to, or retainable by, the Owner shall not be paid or credited to, or retained by, the Owner if at the time such payment, credit or retention would otherwise occur a Special Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, but shall instead be held by or paid over to the Mortgagee as security for the obligations of the Owner under this Agreement and shall be invested pursuant to Section 6.06 of the Trust Indenture. At such time as there shall not be continuing any Special Default or Event of Default, such amount and any gains thereon shall be paid to the Owner to the extent not previously applied in accordance with this Agreement.

TO
SPARE PARTS SECURITY AGREEMENT

 

ANNEX A

 

INSURANCE

 

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth or incorporated by reference in Annex A to Trust Indenture.

 

A.Liability Insurance

 

The Owner will carry or cause to be carried at all times, at no expense to any Additional Insured, third party liability insurance with respect to the Pledged Spare Parts, which is (i) of an amount and scope as may be customarily maintained by the Owner for equipment similar to the Pledged Spare Parts and (ii) maintained in effect with insurers of nationally or internationally recognized responsibility (such insurers being referred to herein as “Approved Insurers”).

 

B.Property Insurance

 

The Owner will carry or cause to be carried at all times, at no expense to any Additional Insured, with Approved Insurers insurance covering physical damage to the Pledged Spare Parts providing for the reimbursement of the actual expenditure incurred in repairing or replacing any damaged or destroyed Pledged Spare Part or, if not repaired or replaced, for the payment of the amount it would cost to repair or replace such Pledged Spare Part, on the date of loss, with proper deduction for obsolescence and physical depreciation.

 

Any policies of insurance carried in accordance with this Section B covering the Pledged Spare Parts and any policies taken out in substitution or replacement for any such policies shall provide that (A) all insurance proceeds up to the applicable Minimum Insurance Amount paid under such policies as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Loss with respect to any Pledged Spare Parts involving proceeds in excess of the Threshold Amount will be paid to the Mortgagee, it being agreed that the Mortgagee shall pay the amount of such proceeds to the Owner or its order to the extent required under Section 2.05(d) or (e) of the Spare Parts Security Agreement, and (B) the entire amount of any insurance proceeds not involving an Event of Loss with respect to any Pledged Spare Parts or involving proceeds of the Threshold Amount or less and the amount of insurance proceeds in excess of the applicable Minimum Insurance Amount shall be paid to the Owner or its order; provided, that if a Special Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the insurers have been notified thereof by the Mortgagee, the amount of any proceeds of any loss with respect to the Pledged Spare Parts shall be paid to the Mortgagee.

 

All losses will be adjusted by Owner with the insurers; provided, however, that during a period when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Owner shall not agree to any such adjustment without the consent of the Mortgagee (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

 

Annex A -1

 

 

C.General Provisions

 

Any policies of insurance carried in accordance with Sections A and B, including any policies taken out in substitution or replacement for such policies:

 

(i)            in the case of Section A, shall name each Additional Insured as an additional insured, as their respective interests may appear;

 

(ii)            in the case of Section A, shall provide that, in respect of the coverage of the Additional Insureds in such policies, the insurance shall not be invalidated or impaired by any act or omission (including misrepresentation and nondisclosure) by the Owner (or any Permitted Lessee) or any other Person (including, without limitation, use of the Pledged Spare Parts for illegal purposes) and shall insure the Additional Insureds regardless of any breach or violation of any representation, warranty, declaration, term or condition contained in such policies by the Owner (or any Permitted Lessee); provided that the Additional Insured so protected has not caused, contributed to or knowingly condoned said act or omission. However, the coverage afforded the Additional Insured will not apply in the event of exhaustion of policy limits or to losses or claims arising from perils specifically excluded from coverage under the policies;

 

(iii)          shall provide that, if the insurers cancel such insurance for any reason whatsoever, or if the same is allowed to lapse for nonpayment of premium, or if any material change is made in the insurance which adversely affects the interest of any of the Additional Insureds, such cancellation, lapse or change shall not be effective as to the Additional Insureds for 30 days (10 days for nonpayment of premiums) after receipt by the Additional Insureds of written notice by such insurers of such cancellation, lapse or change, provided, that if any notice period specified above is not reasonably obtainable, such policies shall provide for as long a period of prior notice as shall then be reasonably obtainable;

 

(iv)           shall waive any rights of setoff (including for unpaid premiums), recoupment, counterclaim or other deduction, whether by attachment or otherwise, against each Additional Insured;

 

(v)            shall waive any right of subrogation against any Additional Insured;

 

(vi)          in the case of Section A, shall be primary without right of contribution from any other insurance that may be available to any Additional Insured;

 

(vii)         in the case of Section A, shall provide that all of the liability insurance provisions thereof, except the limits of liability, shall operate in all respects as if a separate policy had been issued covering each party insured thereunder; and

 

(viii)        shall provide that none of the Additional Insureds shall be liable for any insurance premium.

 

Annex A -2

 

 

D.Reports and Certificates; Other Information

 

On or prior to the Closing Date, and on or prior to each renewal date of the insurance policies required hereunder, the Owner will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Mortgagee insurance certificates describing in reasonable detail the insurance maintained by the Owner or any Permitted Lessee hereunder and a report, signed by the Owner’s regularly retained independent insurance broker (the “Insurance Broker”), stating the opinion of such Insurance Broker that such insurance (a) is in full force and effect on the Pledged Spare Parts and (b) complies with the terms of this Annex A. The Owner will request the Insurance Broker to agree to advise the Mortgagee in writing of any default in the payment of any premium of which it has knowledge and which might invalidate or render unenforceable, in whole or in part, any insurance on the Pledged Spare Parts or cause the cancellation, termination or interruption of such insurance (and, if the Insurance Broker does not so agreed, the Owner shall advise the Mortgagee in writing of any such default in payment).

 

E.Right to Pay Premiums

 

None of the Mortgagee and the other Additional Insureds shall have any obligation to pay any premium, commission, assessment or call due on any such insurance (including reinsurance). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of cancellation of any insurance due to the nonpayment of premiums, the Mortgagee shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to pay any such premium in respect of the Pledged Spare Parts that is due in respect of the coverage pursuant to the Spare Parts Security Agreement and to maintain such coverage, as the the Mortgagee may require, until the scheduled expiry date of such insurance and, in such event, the Owner shall, upon demand, reimburse the Mortgagee for amounts so paid by it.

 

F.Deductibles; Self-insurance

 

The Owner may self-insure by way of deductible, premium adjustment or franchise provisions or otherwise in the insurance covering the risks required to be insured against pursuant to this Annex A in such amounts as shall be consistent with normal industry practice.

 

G.Salvage Rights; Other

 

All salvage rights to Pledged Spare Parts shall remain with Owner’s insurers at all times, and any insurance policies of the Mortgagee insuring Pledged Spare Parts shall provide for a release to Owner of any and all salvage rights in and to any Pledged Spare Parts.
