(b) Unless otherwise specified herein and without duplication of any other amounts owed to the Policy Provider hereunder or under the Policy Fee Letter, the Policy Provider shall be entitled to interest on all amounts owed to the Policy Provider under this Insurance Agreement, from the date such amounts become due and payable until paid in full, at a rate of interest equal to the Base Rate from time to time in effect plus 1%. 13 (c) Unless otherwise specified herein, interest payable to the Policy Provider under this Insurance Agreement shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year and the actual number of days elapsed and shall be payable on demand. Section 3.06 Policy Endorsement. Regardless of whether or not the Policy Provider makes a Policy Provider Election, the Policy Provider shall, on the first Business Day (which shall be a Special Distribution Date) that is 21 months after the last date on which full payment was made on the first Series G Equipment Note as to which there has subsequently been a failure to pay principal or that has been accelerated, endorse the Policy, if not already endorsed, to so provide for the payment to the Class G Primary Liquidity Provider of interest accruing on the outstanding drawings in respect of the Class G Primary Liquidity Facility from and after the end of such 21-month period as and when such interest becomes due in accordance with such Primary Liquidity Facility. Section 3.07 Payment by Subordination Agent. (a) All of the fees, expenses and disbursements set forth in Sections 3.02 and 3.03(c) shall be payable by American as provided in such Sections.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, all payments to be made by the Subordination Agent under this Section 3.07 shall be made only from the amounts that constitute Scheduled Payments, Special Payments or payments under the Operative Agreements, including Section 4.02 of the Participation Agreements, and only to the extent that the Subordination Agent shall have sufficient income or proceeds therefrom to enable the Subordination Agent to make payments in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. The Policy Provider agrees that with respect to payments to be made by the Subordination Agent (i) it will look solely to such amounts to the extent available for distribution to it as provided in the Intercreditor Agreement, and (ii) none of the Subordination Agent, in its individual capacity, the Loan Trustees and the Trustees, is personally liable to it for any amounts payable or liability under this letter except as expressly provided in the Intercreditor Agreement or (as to the Loan Trustees) as expressly provided in any Operative Document.

Section 4.02 Further Assurances and Corrective Instruments. (a) Neither American nor the Subordination Agent shall grant any waiver of rights or agree to any amendment or modification to any of the Operative Agreements to which 14 either of them is a party which waiver, amendment, or modification would have an adverse effect on the rights or remedies of the Policy Provider without the prior written consent of the Policy Provider so long as the Policy Provider shall be the Controlling Party, and any such waiver without prior written consent of the Policy Provider shall be null and void and of no force or effect. (b) To the extent permitted by law, each of American and the Subordination Agent agrees that it will, from time to time, execute, acknowledge and deliver, or cause to be executed, acknowledged and delivered, such supplements hereto and such further instruments as the Policy Provider may reasonably request and as may be required in the Policy Provider's reasonable judgment to effectuate the intention of or facilitate the performance of this Insurance Agreement.

(a) The obligations of American, the Subordination Agent and the Class G Trustee hereunder and under the Operative Agreements shall be absolute and unconditional and shall be paid or performed strictly in accordance with this Insurance Agreement and the other Operative Agreements under all circumstances irrespective of: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of, or any amendment or other modifications of, or waiver, with respect to any of the Operative Agreements or the Certificates; (ii) any exchange or release of any other obligations hereunder; (iii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense, reduction, abatement or other right that any Person may have at any time against the Policy Provider or any other Person; (iv) any document presented in connection with the Policy proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (v) any payment by the Policy Provider under the Policy against presentation of a certificate or other document that does not strictly comply with the terms of the Policy; (vi) any failure of American to receive the proceeds from the sale of the Certificates; and (vii) any other circumstances, other than payment in full, that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or discharge of, any Person in respect of any Operative Agreements. (b) Each of the parties hereto renounces the right to assert as a defense to the performance of their respective obligations herein each of the following: (i) to the extent permitted by law, any and all redemption and exemption rights and the benefit of all valuation and appraisement privileges against the indebtedness and obligations evidenced by any 15 Operative Agreements or by any extension or renewal thereof; (ii) presentment and demand for payment, notices of nonpayment and of dishonor, protest of dishonor and notice of protest; (iii) all notices in connection with the delivery and acceptance hereof and all other notices in connection with the performance, default or enforcement of any payment hereunder, except as required by the Operative Agreements; and (iv) all rights of abatement, diminution, postponement or deduction, or to any defense, or to any right of setoff or recoupment arising out of any breach under any of the Operative Agreements, by any party thereto or any beneficiary thereof, or out of any obligation at any time owing to American.

(d) No failure by the Policy Provider to exercise, and no delay by the Policy Provider in exercising, any right hereunder or in the Operative Agreements shall operate as a waiver thereof. The exercise by the Policy Provider of any right hereunder shall not preclude the exercise of any other right, and the remedies provided herein to the Policy Provider are declared in every case to be cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law or equity. (e) Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting any party hereto from pursuing any rights or remedies it may have against any Person in a separate legal proceeding. Section 4.04 Assignments; Reinsurance; Third-Party Rights. (a) This Insurance Agreement shall be a continuing obligation of the parties hereto and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

(b) The Policy Provider shall have the right to grant participation in its rights under this Insurance Agreement and to enter into contracts of reinsurance with respect to the Policy upon such terms and conditions as the Policy Provider may in its discretion determine; provided, however, that no such participation or reinsurance agreement or arrangement shall relieve the Policy Provider of any of its obligations hereunder or under the Policy or grant to any participant or reinsurer any rights hereunder or under any Operative Agreement. (c) Except as provided herein with respect to participants and reinsurers, nothing in this Insurance Agreement shall confer any right, remedy or claim, express or implied, 16 upon any Person, including, particularly, any Class G Certificateholder, other than the Policy Provider against American, or American against the Policy Provider, and all the terms, covenants, conditions, promises and agreements contained herein shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns.

Section 4.05 Liability of the Policy Provider. Neither the Policy Provider nor any of its officers, directors or employees shall be liable or responsible for: (a) the use that may be made of the Policy by the Class G Trustee or for any acts or omissions of the Class G Trustee in connection therewith; or (b) the validity, sufficiency, accuracy or genuineness of documents delivered to the Policy Provider in connection with any claim under the Policy, or of any signatures thereon, even if such documents or signatures should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged (unless the Policy Provider shall have actual knowledge thereof).
