(a) Unless required by applicable law, all payments by any Borrower under the Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes; provided that, if any Borrower shall be required to deduct any Taxes from such payments, then (i) if such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable will be increased as necessary so that, after all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) are made, each relevant Lender Party receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
     (b) In addition, the Borrowers shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
     (c) The Borrowers shall indemnify each Lender Party, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by such Lender Party with respect to any payment by or obligation of the Borrowers under the Loan Documents (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of any such payment delivered to the Borrowers by a Lender Party shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
     (d) As soon as practicable after any Borrower pays to a Governmental Authority any Taxes that have been deducted or withheld from any amount payable to a Lender Party pursuant to the Loan Documents, such Borrower shall deliver to the Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Lender.
     (e) On or before the Amendment Effective Date, each Lender Party shall deliver to the Parent Borrower (and from time to time after the Amendment Effective Date if requested by any Borrower Party, each Lender Party shall deliver promptly to that Borrower Party) two duly completed and executed Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Forms W-9 (or successor IRS forms thereto) claiming exemption from backup withholding Tax. In addition, in the event that any Borrower Party is or in the future shall be organized in or tax-resident in any country other than the United States, each Lender Party shall deliver promptly to that Borrower Party such certificates, documents or information as are requested

37


 

by that Borrower Party in order to reduce or eliminate any Tax that would otherwise be required under applicable law to be deducted or withheld from any payment to that Lender Party, to the extent that the Lender Party legally is able to do so. Without limiting the foregoing, on or before the Amendment Effective Date, the Lender shall deliver to the Irish Subsidiary Borrower (and from time to time after the Amendment Effective Date as requested by any Borrower Party that is Tax-resident in Ireland, the Lender shall deliver promptly to that Borrower Party, to the extent the Lender legally is able to do so) two duly completed and executed copies of a Qualifying Lender Certificate. The foregoing requirement to deliver a Qualifying Lender Certificate shall not apply to the FRBNY in the event of an assignment by the Lender of any of its rights hereunder to the FRBNY pursuant to Section 8.04(b). Each Lender Party shall promptly inform the applicable Borrower Party in writing, in the event that (x) in the case of the Lender, the Lender ceases to be a Qualifying Lender or there is a change as to which subclause (a) through (j)) of the definition of “Qualifying Lender” the Lender satisfies, or (y) there is a change to the information set forth in the forms, certificates, documents provided by, or other information provided by, such Lender Party pursuant to the three preceding sentences.
     (f) If a Lender Party determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund (or credit or offset against an Excluded Tax in lieu of a cash refund of an Indemnified Tax or Other Tax) of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Borrower or with respect to which a Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to that Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by that Borrower under this Section with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund (or credit or offset)), net of all Taxes resulting from such refund and out-of-pocket expenses of the Lender Party, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund (or credit or offset)), provided that the applicable Borrower, upon the request of the Lender, agrees to repay the amount so paid over to that Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Lender Party in the event the Lender Party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Nothing in this Section 2.09(f) shall be construed to require a Lender Party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that the Lender Party, acting in good faith, deems confidential) to any Borrower.
     (g) Upon the occurrence of any event that could otherwise give rise to the operation of the grossup in Section 2.09(a)(i) or the indemnification in Section 2.09(c) with respect to a Lender Party, that Lender Party will, if requested by a Borrower Party, use reasonable efforts to agree to a restructuring of the Loan in a manner that eliminates or reduces (as far as is legally possible) the Tax as to which there is a grossup or indemnification obligation, provided that such

38


 

restructuring in the sole judgment of that Lender Party (acting in good faith) will cause the Lender Party to suffer no economic or legal disadvantage, and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrowers or the rights of the Lender Parties pursuant to Sections 2.09(a) and (c).
     Section 2.10. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) The Borrowers shall make each payment required to be made by it under the Loan Documents (whether of principal, interest or fees or amounts payable under Section 2.09 or otherwise) before the time expressly required under the relevant Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, before 12:00 noon, New York City time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amount received after such time on any day may, in the discretion of the Lender, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the FRBNY Account. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment will be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, if such payment accrues interest, interest thereon will be payable for the period of such extension. All payments under each Loan Document shall be made in dollars.
     (b) If at any time insufficient funds are received in the FRBNY Account to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, to pay interest and fees then due hereunder and (ii) second, to pay principal then due hereunder.
     (c) In connection with any prepayment of the Outstanding ILFC Loans in accordance with Section 2.07, the parties hereto agree that such prepayment shall be applied (i) first, to prepay the Loan and (ii) second, to prepay the New Loan, except as may be otherwise agreed by the Required Persons and the Parent Borrower.
     Section 2.11. Collection Accounts.
     (a) The Borrower Parties have established on or prior to the Amendment Effective Date one or more interest-bearing or non-interest bearing deposit accounts (collectively, the “Collection Accounts”). The parties hereto agree that, subject to the Mortgage, the Security Trustee shall have control of each Collection Account and all monies, instruments and other property from time to time on deposit therein pursuant to a Deposit Account Control Agreement, which shall provide that the applicable Borrower Party is entitled to provide instructions to the applicable depository bank regarding the withdrawal, transfer or payment of funds on deposit in such Collection Account prior to such depository bank

39


 

receiving notice from the Security Trustee of the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default.
     (b) On or prior to the Amendment Effective Date, each Borrower Party has instructed all Lessees and other Applicable Obligors, and after the Amendment Effective Date shall instruct all future Lessees and other Applicable Obligors, to make payment of Collections in respect of any Lease or Disposition Event only by wire transfer directly to a Collection Account. Schedule 2.11 lists all Collection Accounts as of the Amendment Effective Date, and such schedule correctly identifies with respect to each such Collection Account (1) the name, address and telephone number of the applicable depository bank, (2) the name in which such account is held and (3) the complete account number therefor. In the event that any Borrower Party receives any cash, checks, money orders or any other form of payment as Collections in respect of a Lease or Disposition Event directly, such Borrower Party shall deposit such cash, checks, money orders or other form of payment of Collections, in the form so received (with all necessary endorsements), into a Collection Account as promptly as practicable but not later than the close of business on the Business Day two Business Days following the day such Borrower Party has actual knowledge of receipt thereof.
     (c) If, for any reason, a Control Agreement with respect to a Collection Account terminates or any depository bank fails to comply with its obligations under a Control Agreement to which it is a party, then the applicable Borrower Party shall promptly notify all Applicable Obligors who had previously been instructed to make wire payments to a Collection Account maintained at such depository bank to make all future payments directly to a different Collection Account maintained at a different depository bank. No Borrower Party shall close any Collection Account unless it shall have, subject to the Mortgage, (i) received the prior written consent of the Required Persons, (ii) established a new account with a new depositary institution satisfactory to the Security Trustee in its reasonable discretion, (iii) entered into a Deposit Account Control Agreement covering such new account with such new depositary institution in a form that is satisfactory in all respects to the Security Trustee in its reasonable discretion (whereupon, for all purposes of this Agreement, such new account shall become a Collection Account) and (iv) taken all such action as the Security Trustee shall require to grant a security interest in and Lien on such new Collection Account in favor of the Security Trustee.
     Section 2.12. Transfer of Pool Aircraft to Another Borrower; Removal of Pool Aircraft from the Designated Pool; Intermediate Lessees; Designated Borrowers. (a) Transfer of Pool Aircraft to Another Borrower. Subject to Section 5.29, after the Amendment Effective Date, each Borrower (for purposes hereof, the “Transferor Borrower”) shall be free to transfer any Pool Aircraft Owned by it (and any other Aircraft Assets directly related to such Pool Aircraft) to another Borrower (subject, if applicable, to the Local Requirements Exception)

40


 

(for purposes hereof, the “Transferee Borrower”); provided that prior to such transfer (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) the Transferor Borrower shall have provided at least twenty (20) days’ prior revocable written notice to the Lender Parties and the FRBNY of its intention to transfer such Pool Aircraft (and related Aircraft Assets), (iii) the Transferee Borrower shall have provided the Required Persons with evidence, in form and substance satisfactory to them, that the requirements of Section 60 of the Companies Act 1963 (as amended) of Ireland and the analogous provisions of any other jurisdiction in relation to financial assistance have been complied with in full by such Transferee Borrower and (iv) the Transferee Borrower shall have provided the Security Trustee (A) with all security agreements, mortgages and other similar instruments, agreements, certificates, opinions and documents (including UCC Financing Statements, charge documents and registrations and recordings with the FAA and the International Registry and, where the Transferee Borrower is incorporated under the laws of Ireland, an Irish Mortgage and the Irish Cape Town Registrations) as the Required Persons may reasonably request to grant to the Security Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a perfected security interest in, and Lien on, all Pool Aircraft (and related Aircraft Assets) so transferred, to the same extent, and with the same priority, as that held by the Security Trustee immediately prior to such transfer (it being understood and agreed that, with respect to each applicable Aircraft Asset, only the Express Perfection Requirements shall apply) and (B) with proof satisfactory to the Required Persons that (1) such Transferee Borrower, or any applicable Lessee, has obtained all insurance, endorsements and other documents required by Section 2.19 of the Mortgage (regardless of whether such Transferee Borrower is a party to the Mortgage) with respect to such Pool Aircraft (and related Aircraft Assets), (2) if not previously delivered to each applicable Lessee, such Transferee Borrower has delivered irrevocable instructions to each applicable Lessee instructing it to pay all amounts in respect of any Lease directly to a Collection Account, (3) the ownership interest of the Transferee Borrower in the applicable Aircraft Asset is fully perfected and has been filed on the local aviation or other applicable register if required to be so filed and any other necessary filings have been made to perfect such ownership, (4) each applicable Lessee has consented to such transfer if such consent is required under the Lease and (5) if applicable, the provisions of Section 5.26(c) are satisfied. For the avoidance of doubt, upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the proviso of the preceding sentence, any Pool Aircraft so transferred shall remain in the Designated Pool and be considered in the calculation of the Loan-to-Value Ratio to the same extent that such Pool Aircraft would have been considered in such calculation had such Pool Aircraft continued to be Owned by the Transferor Borrower. Within 21 days following the transfer of a Pool Aircraft to a Transferee Borrower incorporated under the laws of Ireland, such Transferee Borrower shall cause all Security Documents required under clause (A) above to be filed with the Irish Companies

41


 

     Registration Office and the Irish Revenue Commissioners and in each case shall provide evidence of such filings reasonably satisfactory to the Required Persons.
     (b) Removal of Pool Aircraft from the Designated Pool.

Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the preceding sentence with respect to any Pool Aircraft, each Security Trustee’s security interest in, and Lien on, such Pool Aircraft (and any other Aircraft Assets directly related to such Pool Aircraft) shall be automatically released, and if such removal is effected by the transfer of Equity Interests in an entity owning and/or leasing such Pool Aircraft, the applicable security interests in, and Liens on, such entities shall be released in accordance with Section 2.12(g). The Security Trustees shall promptly execute and deliver to the applicable Borrower, at the applicable Borrower’s expense, all documents that the applicable Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence their release of the security interests in, and Liens on, the applicable Pool Aircraft (and any other Aircraft Assets directly related to such Pool Aircraft).

In connection with (i) the replacement of any Lease of Pool Aircraft, (ii) the addition of Non-Pool Aircraft to the Designated Pool pursuant to Section 5.22, or (iii) any Requirement of Law, any Borrower shall be entitled, by giving notice (an “Intermediate Lease Notice”) to the Lender Parties and the FRBNY, to enter into an Intermediate Lease with an Intermediate Lessee with respect to such Aircraft; provided that:

     (i) Such Subsidiary is subject to civil and commercial laws with respect to its Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan

46


 

Documents to which it is a party (collectively as to such Subsidiary, the “Applicable Subsidiary Documents”), and the execution, delivery and performance by such Subsidiary of the Applicable Subsidiary Documents constitute and will constitute private and commercial acts and not public or governmental acts. Neither such Subsidiary nor any of its property has any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) under the laws of the jurisdiction in which such Subsidiary is organized and existing in respect of its obligations under the Applicable Subsidiary Documents.
     (ii) The Applicable Subsidiary Documents are in proper legal form under the laws of the jurisdiction in which such Designated Borrower is organized and existing for the enforcement thereof against such Designated Borrower under the laws of such jurisdiction, and to ensure the legality, validity, enforceability, priority or admissibility in evidence of the Applicable Subsidiary Documents.

     (v) The execution, delivery and performance of the Applicable Subsidiary Documents executed by such Subsidiary are, under applicable foreign exchange control regulations of the jurisdiction in which such Subsidiary is organized and existing, not subject to any notification or

47


 

authorization at such time except (A) such as have been made or obtained or (B) such as cannot be made or obtained until a later date (provided that any notification or authorization described in clause (B) shall be made or obtained as soon as is reasonably practicable).
     The Parent Borrower agrees to give prompt notice (not to exceed five (5) Business Days) to the Lender Parties and the FRBNY after it obtains knowledge of any Specified Representation Deficiency and, upon such notice, will provide a LTV Certificate as of the date of such notice giving pro forma effect to removal of such Subsidiary as a Borrower Party.

The foregoing amendments shall be effected through documentation satisfactory to the Lender Parties and the FRBNY.

     Section 2.15. Release Of Supplemental Pool Aircraft From The Designated Pool. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, on the Required Perfection Date, all Supplemental Pool Aircraft shall cease to be Pool Aircraft hereunder and under any other Loan Document; provided that Supplemental Pool Aircraft shall not cease to be Pool Aircraft to the extent that, as of the Required

50


 

(i) with respect to the Required Pool Aircraft and any Aircraft Assets related thereto, the Required Perfection Date and (ii) with respect to the Supplemental Pool Aircraft and any Aircraft Assets related thereto, the applicable date set forth in Section 5.02(a)) as security for the Secured Obligations, subject in priority to no other Liens (other than Permitted Liens), and all filings and other actions necessary to perfect and protect such security interest under the laws of the United States or Ireland have been (or in the case of future Collateral will be) duly taken (it being understood and agreed that, with respect to each applicable Aircraft Asset, only the Express Perfection Requirements shall apply), enforceable against the applicable Borrower Parties and creditors of and purchasers from such Borrower Parties.

51


 

provisions of ERISA and the Code and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder as relates to each Plan except where any failure to comply would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There exists no Undefined Pension Liability with respect to any Plan that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
     (b) Each Foreign Pension Plan is in compliance in all respects with all requirements of law applicable thereto and the respective requirements of the governing documents for such plan except where the failure to comply would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

The aggregate unfunded liabilities with respect to such Foreign Pension Plans could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

As of the date hereof and the Amendment Effective Date, there are no material strikes, lockouts or slowdowns against any Borrower Party or any Subsidiary pending or, to the knowledge of any Borrower Party, threatened. The consummation of the Transactions will not give rise to any right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which any Borrower Party or any Subsidiary is bound, the termination or renegotiation of which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Any payments due from any Borrower Party or any Subsidiary, or for which any claim may be made against any Borrower Party or any Subsidiary, on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits, have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of any Borrower Party or such Subsidiary except to the extent that such nonpayment or nonaccrual would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     Section 3.12. Compliance with Applicable Laws, etc. Each Borrower Party is in compliance with the requirements of all applicable laws, rules, regulations, judgments (unless such judgment has been properly appealed and such appeal is being diligently prosecuted by such Person and for which reserves required in accordance with GAAP have been made), agreements, decrees and orders of all Governmental Authorities (including ERISA and any Environmental Law) applicable to it, except for noncompliance that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Each Borrower Party has (i) filed or caused to be filed all federal, state, local and foreign Tax returns or Tax materials required to have been filed by it with a Governmental Authority, except where the failure to file any such return or material would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (ii) paid or caused to be paid all Taxes due and payable by it and all assessments received by it, except Taxes the non-payment of which would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or that are being disputed in good faith or contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which such Borrower Party shall have set aside on its books reserves required in accordance with GAAP. All such Tax returns are true and correct in all material respects. No Tax Lien or similar Adverse Claim has been filed, and no claim is being asserted, with respect to any such Taxes, that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Any Taxes, fees and other governmental charges payable by any Borrower Party in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the making of any payment required hereby or thereby have been paid or will be paid when due, except Taxes the non-payment of which would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Borrower Party is aware of any proposed or pending tax assessments, deficiencies or audits that could reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.
     Section 3.15. Borrower Information. Schedule 3.15, as updated from time to time in writing to the Lender Parties, accurately sets forth with respect to each Borrower Party (i) the location of its chief executive office, (ii) its jurisdiction of incorporation, (iii) its entity type and (iv) its employer or taxpayer identification number (if any) issued by its jurisdiction of incorporation.

As of the Amendment Effective Date, neither the Borrower Parties taken as a whole, nor the Parent Borrower, will be rendered insolvent as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

ARTICLE 7
Guaranty
     Section 7.01. Guaranty. Each Borrower Party hereby guarantees the punctual payment upon the expiration of any applicable remedial period, whether at scheduled maturity or by acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all of its Guaranteed Obligations (each Borrower Party in its capacity as guarantor under this Article 7, a “Guarantor Party”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the liability of each Guarantor Party shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by any other Borrower Party to any Secured Party under or in respect of the Loan Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization, examination or similar proceeding involving such other Borrower Party.
     Section 7.02. Contribution. Subject to Section 7.03, each Guarantor Party hereby unconditionally agrees that in the event any payment shall be required to be made to any Secured Party under this Article 7 or the Borrower Party Guarantee, such Guarantor Party in its capacity as such will contribute, to the maximum extent permitted by law, such amounts to each other Guarantor Party so as to maximize the aggregate amount paid to the Secured Parties under or in respect of the Loan Documents.
     Section 7.03. Guaranty Absolute. Each Guarantor Party guarantees that its Guaranteed Obligations will be paid in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of any Secured Party with respect thereto. The Obligations of each Guarantor Party under or in respect of this Article 7 are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Borrower Party under or in respect of the Loan Documents, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor Party to enforce this Article 7, irrespective of whether any action is brought against any other Borrower Party or whether any other Borrower

78


 

Party is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of each Guarantor Party under this Article 7 shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional, and each Guarantor Party hereby irrevocably waives any defenses (other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations) it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to, any or all of the following:
     (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument relating thereto;
     (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of its Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Borrower Party under or in respect of the Loan Documents, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Loan Document, including, without limitation, any increase in its Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any Borrower Party or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise;
     (c) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of security interest in or Lien on any Collateral or any other collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of, or consent to departure from, any other guaranty, for all or any of its Guaranteed Obligations;
     (d) any manner of application of Collateral or any other collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of its Guaranteed Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any Collateral or any other collateral for all or any of its Guaranteed Obligations or any other Secured Obligations of any Borrower Party under the Loan Documents or any other assets of any Borrower Party or any of its Subsidiaries;
     (e) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of any Borrower Party or any of its Subsidiaries;
     (f) any failure of any Secured Party to disclose to any Borrower Party any information relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of any other Borrower Party now or hereafter known to such Secured Party (each Guarantor Party waiving any duty on the part of the Secured Parties to disclose such information);
     (g) the failure of any other Person to execute or deliver any other guaranty or agreement or the release or reduction of liability of any other guarantor or surety with respect to its Guaranteed Obligations; or
     (h) any other circumstance or any existence of or reliance on any representation by any Secured Party that might otherwise constitute a defense

79


 

available to, or a discharge of, any Borrower Party or any other guarantor or surety other than satisfaction in full of the Obligations.
This Article 7 shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of such Guarantor Party’s Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Secured Party or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or any other Loan Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.
     Section 7.04. Waiver and Acknowledgments. (i) Each Guarantor Party hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, presentment, demand for performance, notice of nonperformance, default, acceleration, protest or dishonor and any other notice with respect to any of its Guaranteed Obligations and this Article 7 and any requirement that any Secured Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against any Borrower Party or any other Person or any Collateral.
     (a) Each Guarantor Party hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Article 7 and acknowledges that this Article 7 is continuing in nature and applies to all of its Guaranteed Obligations, whether existing now or in the future; provided that the Parent Borrower shall be released as a Guarantor Party when it ceases to be a Borrower pursuant to Section 2.13.
     (b) Each Guarantor Party hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any defense arising by reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by any Secured Party that in any manner impairs, reduces, releases or otherwise adversely affects the subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification rights of such Guarantor Party or other rights of such Guarantor Party to proceed against any of the other Borrower Parties, any other guarantor or any other Person or any Collateral and any defense based on any right of set-off or counterclaim against or in respect of the Obligations of such Guarantor Party under this Article 7.
     (c) Each Guarantor Party hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any duty on the part of any Secured Party to disclose to such Guarantor Party any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of any other Borrower Party or any of its Subsidiaries now or hereafter known by such Secured Party.
     (d) Each Guarantor Party acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Loan Documents and that the waivers set forth in this Article 7 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

80


 

     Section 7.05. Subrogation. Each Guarantor Party hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees not to exercise any rights that it may now have or hereafter acquire against any other Borrower Party or any other insider guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor Party’s Guaranteed Obligations under or in respect of any Loan Document, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of any Secured Party against any other Borrower Party or any other insider guarantor or any Collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from any other Borrower Party or any other insider guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of such Guarantor Party’s Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Article 7 shall have been paid in full in cash, it being understood that payments in respect of inter-company advances exclusively among the Borrower Parties in the ordinary course of business are not prohibited under this Section 7.05 unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and, if applicable, a “Notice of Exclusive Control” (as defined in any applicable Deposit Account Control Agreement) has been given. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor Party in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Article 7, such amount shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall be segregated from other property and funds of such Guarantor Party and shall forthwith be paid or delivered to the Lender in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or assignment) to be credited and applied to such Guarantor Party’s Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable by it under this Article 7, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, or to be held as Collateral for any of such Guarantor Party’s Guaranteed Obligations or other amounts payable by it under this Article 7 thereafter arising. If all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Article 7 shall have been paid in full in cash, the Secured Parties will, at any Guarantor Party’s request and expense, execute and deliver to such Guarantor Party appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor Party of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from such payment made by such Guarantor Party pursuant to this Article 7.
     Section 7.06. Payment Free and Clear of Taxes. Any and all payments by any Guarantor Party under this Article 7 shall be made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of Section 2.09 (and such Guarantor Party shall make such payments of Taxes or Other Taxes to the extent described in Section 2.09), as though such payments were made by a Borrower.

81


 

     Section 7.07. No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.
     Section 7.08. Continuing Guaranty. This Article 7 is a continuing guaranty and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Article 7, and (b) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Secured Parties and their permitted successors, transferees and assigns. No Guarantor Party shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Required Persons.
     Section 7.09. Subordination of Certain Intercompany Indebtedness. Each Guarantor Party hereby agrees that any obligations owed by it to another Borrower Party shall be subordinated to the Obligations of such Guarantor Party and that any indebtedness owed to it by another Borrower Party shall be subordinated to the Obligations of such other Borrower Party, it being understood that such Guarantor Party or such other Borrower Party, as the case may be, may make payments on such intercompany indebtedness unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and, if applicable, a “Notice of Exclusive Control” (as defined in any applicable Deposit Account Control Agreement) has been given.
     Section 7.10. Limit of Liability. (a) Each Guarantor Party shall be liable only for Guaranteed Obligations aggregating up to the largest amount that would not render its Guaranteed Obligations hereunder subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of any other applicable law.
     (b) In the event that the direct or indirect assets of any Borrower Party organized under the laws of Ireland are insufficient to pay in full all claims made by the Secured Parties in respect of Guaranteed Obligations of such Borrower Party, then the Secured Parties shall have no further claim against such Borrower Party with respect to its Guaranteed Obligations for amounts that exceed its direct or indirect assets at such time.
     (c) The guarantees, obligations, liabilities and undertakings granted by the French Initial Intermediate Lessee under this Article 7, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall, for each relevant financial year, be, in any and all cases, strictly limited to 90% of the annual net margin generated by the French Initial Intermediate Lessee in connection with back-to-back leasing activities between it and the Parent Borrower with respect to the lease of Pool Aircraft.

83


 

Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Lender Parties under the Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Borrower Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by subsection (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

     (b) No Loan Document or provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into or consented to by the Borrowers and the Required Persons or, in the case of any other Loan Document, by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the parties thereto with the written consent of the Required Persons; provided that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Security Trustee without such Person’s prior written consent. Any purported waiver, amendment or other modification of any Loan Document or any provision thereof that does not comply with this Section 8.02(b) shall be null and void and of no legal effect.

     (b) Each Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender Party and each of their respective Representatives and the FRBNY (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable counsel fees, charges and disbursements (exclusive however of Taxes, it being understood that the sole indemnification provided by the Borrowers to the Indemnitees in respect of Taxes is set forth in Section 2.09), incurred by or

84


 

asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with or as a result of any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto (and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by a Borrower, any other Borrower Party or any of their respective Affiliates) relating to: (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loan, or (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on any property currently or formerly owned, leased, operated or used by any Borrower Party or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to any Borrower Party or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. Except with respect to a claim asserted against the FRBNY, the relevant Borrower Party shall defend the claim and the relevant Indemnitee shall cooperate in the defense. Other than with respect to any claim asserted against the FRBNY, the Borrowers may, in their sole discretion, and at their expense, control the defense of a claim including, without limitation, designating counsel for the relevant Indemnitee (excluding for the avoidance of doubt the FRBNY) and controlling all negotiations, litigation, arbitration, settlements, compromises and appeals of any such claim; provided that (i) the Borrowers may not agree to any settlement involving any Indemnitee that contains any element other than the payment of money and complete indemnification of the Indemnitee without the prior written consent of the affected Indemnitee, (ii) the Borrowers shall engage and pay the expenses of separate counsel for the Indemnitee to the extent that the interest of the relevant Indemnitee are in conflict with those of the Borrowers or any other Borrower Party and (iii) the Indemnitee shall have the right to approve the counsel designated by the Borrowers which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
     (c) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Borrower Party shall assert, and it waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, the Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.
     (d) The provisions of Section 2.09 and this Section 8.03 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, the repayment of the Loan, the

85

Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (except the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly provided herein, the Related Parties of the Lender Parties) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
     (b) The Lender may at any time assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to the FRBNY to secure extensions of credit to the Lender from the FRBNY.
     Section 8.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower Parties in the Loan Documents and in certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Lender Party may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any principal of or accrued interest on the Loan or any fee or other amount payable hereunder is outstanding and unpaid.
     Section 8.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.

86


 

when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto and (ii) thereafter will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy will be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
     Section 8.07. Severability. If any provision of any Loan Document is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (i) such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent (but only to the extent) of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, (ii) the other provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction and shall be liberally construed in favor of the Lender Parties in order to carry out the intentions of the parties thereto as nearly as may be possible and (iii) the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any such provision in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

     Section 8.09. Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

     (b) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in any New York State or federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably

87


 

waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
     (c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 8.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

None.

 


 

EXHIBIT A
DEPOSITORY ACCOUNT AND ACCOUNT CONTROL AGREEMENT
     This Depository Account and Account Control Agreement is entered into this ___ day of [                    ], 20[___] (this “Agreement”), by and among [                    ] (“Customer”), JPMorgan Chase Bank, NA (“Bank”), and Wells Fargo Bank Northwest, National Association, as Security Trustee, as Secured Party under the Aircraft Mortgage and Security Agreement referred to below (“Secured Party”).
WHEREAS, from time to time, pursuant to that certain Credit Agreement dated as of October 13, 2009 (the “Credit Agreement”) among the Customer, the Secured Party and the other entities party thereto, and certain aircraft leasing transactions therein, Customer receives and holds certain funds; and
WHEREAS, Customer is desirous of appointing the Bank as its depository agent to hold these funds in the Account (as identified below) (such Account being a Blocked Account as defined in the Credit Agreement), subject only to the terms and conditions set forth herein.
WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Aircraft Mortgage and Security Agreement dated as of October 13, 2009 (the “Mortgage”) among the Customer, the Secured Party and the other Grantors party thereto, the Customer has granted to the Secured Party, a first, second, third and fourth priority security interest in, liens upon and pledges of the Account (as defined below) and the Account Collateral (as defined below), including, without limitation, all free credit balances, cash and cash balances contained or on deposit in the Account and all proceeds thereof, whether now existing or hereafter arising.
WHEREAS, the Bank acknowledges notice of and recognizes the Secured Party’s security interests in the Account and the Account Collateral. This Agreement is intended to establish Secured Party’s control of the Account and the Account Collateral and to thereby perfect Secured Party’s security interests in the Account and the Account Collateral.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:
     1. Appointment. The Customer hereby appoints the Bank as the depository agent for the purposes set forth herein, and the Bank hereby accepts such appointment under the terms and conditions set forth herein.
     2. Account Identification. (a) This Agreement applies to the deposit account identified below that has been established at the Bank on behalf of and in the name of the Customer (the “Account”).
     
Customer   Account Number
     

 


 

Following execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Customer will cause various lessees to deposit with the Bank lease payments either monthly or quarterly (the “Deposits”). The Bank shall hold the Deposits, in the Account and, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, shall invest and reinvest the Deposits as directed in Section 3. The parties hereto agree that the Account is a “deposit account” within the meaning of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York (“UCC”).
     (b) Patriot Act Disclosure. Section 326 of the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (“USA PATRIOT Act”) requires the Depository Agent to implement reasonable procedures to verify the identity of any person that opens a new account with it. Accordingly, the Customer acknowledges that Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act and the Bank’s identity verification procedures require the Bank to obtain information which may be used to confirm the Customer’s identity including without limitation name, address and organizational documents (“identifying information”). The Customer agrees to provide the Bank with and consent to the Bank obtaining from third parties any such identifying information required as a condition of opening an account with or using any service provided by the Bank.
     (c) Taxpayer Identification Numbers (“TIN”). The Customer has provided the Bank with its fully executed Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-8, or W-9 and/or other required documentation. The Customer represents that its correct TIN assigned by the IRS, or any other taxing authority, is set forth in the delivered forms, as well as in the Substitute IRS Form W-9 set forth on the signature page of this Agreement.
     (d) Tax Reporting. All interest or other income earned under the Agreement shall be allocated to Customer and reported, as and to the extent required by law, by the Bank to the IRS, or any other taxing authority, on IRS Form 1099 or 1042S (or other appropriate form) as income earned from the Deposits by Customer whether or not said income has been distributed during such year or to Customer. Any other tax returns required to be filed will be prepared and filed by Customer with the IRS and any other taxing authority as required by law. The Customer acknowledges and agrees that Bank shall have no responsibility for the preparation and/or filing of any income, franchise or any other tax return with respect to the Account or any income earned by the Deposits. The Customer further acknowledges and agrees that any taxes payable from the income earned on the investment of any sums held in the Account shall be paid by Customer. In the absence of written direction from the Customer or the Secured Party, as applicable, all proceeds of the Deposits shall be retained in the Account and reinvested from time to time by the Bank as provided in this Agreement. Bank shall withhold any taxes it deems appropriate, including but not limited to required withholding in the absence of proper tax documentation, and shall remit such taxes to the appropriate authorities.
3. Investment of Deposits and Distribution of Deposits. (a) During the term of this Agreement, Deposits in the Account shall be invested in the name of the Secured Party for the account of the Account as Account Collateral subject to the Secured Party’s security interest hereunder in a JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. Cash Compensation Account, or a successor or similar investment offered by the Bank, unless otherwise instructed in writing by the Customer or the Secured Party, as applicable, and as shall be acceptable to the Bank. The Bank will provide compensation on balances in the Account at a rate determined by the Bank from time to time. Written investment instructions, if any, shall specify the type and identity of the

 


 

investments to be purchased and/or sold. The Bank is hereby authorized to execute purchases and sales of investments through the facilities of its own trading or capital markets operations or those of any affiliated entity. The Bank or any of its affiliates may receive compensation with respect to any investment directed hereunder including without limitation charging an agency fee in connection with each transaction. The Customer and the Secured Party recognize and agree that Bank will not provide supervision, recommendations or advice relating to either the investment of moneys held in the Account or the purchase, sale, retention or other disposition of any investment described herein. The Bank shall not have any liability for any loss sustained as a result of any investment in an investment made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or as a result of any liquidation of any investment prior to its maturity or for the failure of the Customer or the Secured Party, as applicable, to give Bank instructions to invest or reinvest the Deposits. The Bank shall have the right to liquidate any investments held in order to provide funds necessary to make required payments under this Agreement.
     (b) Receipt, investment and reinvestment of the Deposits shall be confirmed by Bank as soon as practicable by account statement, and any discrepancies in any such account statement shall be noted by Customer to Bank within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt thereof. Failure to inform Bank in writing of any discrepancies in any such account statement within said thirty (30) day period shall conclusively be deemed confirmation of such account statement in its entirety.
     4. Security Interest; Agency.
          (a) Pursuant to the Mortgage, and as security for the Secured Obligations as defined therein and as and to the extent provided therein, the Customer has granted, and does hereby grant, to the Secured Party a continuing lien upon, and security interest in, the Account and all funds, cash, investments (as described in Section 3 above), and other things of value at any time paid, deposited, credited or held in, payable or withdrawable from or in transit to the Account (whether for collection, provisionally or otherwise) and all proceeds of all of the foregoing (collectively, the “Account Collateral”).
          (b) The Bank agrees to comply with instructions originated by the Secured Party directing disposition of the funds in the Account or the Account Collateral associated with the Account, in all cases without further consent by the Customer. The Secured Party hereby instructs the Bank to comply with, and the Bank hereby agrees that the Bank shall comply with, the directions, including for withdrawals and other transfers, concerning the Account and/or the Account Collateral associated with the Account given to the Bank by the Customer or its authorized representatives, until such time as the Secured Party delivers a written notice to the Bank (with a copy to the Customer unless the delivery of such copy is prohibited by applicable law) in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit A, that the Secured Party is thereby exercising exclusive control over the Account (such notice may be referred to herein as the “Notice of Exclusive Control”). After the Bank receives the Notice of Exclusive Control, it will promptly cease complying with directions concerning the Account or the Account Collateral associated with the Account originated by the Customer or its representatives.
          (c) The Customer hereby represents, warrants and agrees that the provisions of this Section 4 provide “control” (within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the UCC) of the Account and the Account Collateral to the Secured Party and that the Secured Party has a duly

 


 

perfected security interest in the Account and Account Collateral under the UCC subject to no Adverse Claims.
          (d) The Parties hereto acknowledge and agree that notwithstanding the Bank’s obligations and duties under the terms of this Agreement, and Bank’s acknowledgement of the existing security interest as set forth in this Section 4(a), the Bank has undertaken no duty to ensure that the security interest granted herein is perfected under Article 9 of the UCC.
     5. Irrevocable Agreement. The Customer hereby agrees and acknowledges that the agreements made by it and the authorizations granted by it herein are irrevocable and that the authorizations granted herein are powers coupled with an interest.
     6. Actions by Secured Party. At any time that the Secured Party is required or permitted to take any action in connection with this Agreement, or to provide any consent, such action or consent shall be in writing and shall be executed by any one of the authorized persons as set forth in Schedule 1.
     7. Compensation and Reimbursement. The Customer agrees to (a) pay the Bank upon execution of this Agreement and from time to time thereafter reasonable compensation for the services to be rendered hereunder, which unless otherwise agreed in writing shall be as described in Schedule 2 attached hereto, and (b) pay or reimburse the Bank upon request for all expenses, disbursements and advances, including, without limitation reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses, incurred or made by it in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, performance, delivery, modification and termination of this Agreement. The obligations contained in this Section 7 and Section 8 below shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the resignation, replacement or removal of the Bank.
     8. Waiver by Bank of Rights of Set-off. The Bank hereby waives all existing rights of recoupment or set-off and banker’s liens against the Account and the Account Collateral, except those rights of set-off and banker’s liens arising in connection with (a) items deposited in the Account that are subsequently returned to the Bank unpaid and (b) any compensation and expenses owing and payable to Bank with respect to the Account which are assessed in accordance with the Bank’s standard account documentation. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, in the event any fees and expenses (“Fees”) relating to the Account or the Account Collateral go unpaid or any checks or other items which were deposited or credited to the Account are returned, reversed, refunded or charged back for insufficient funds or for any other reason (each a “Returned Item”), the Bank may collect the amount of each Returned Item by debiting the Account. The Customer shall pay the amount of each Returned Item immediately upon demand to the extent there are not sufficient funds in its Account to cover such amount on the day of the debit.
     9. Account Information. The Bank shall provide the Secured Party, at the address indicated in Section 15 below, with such information with respect to the Account and Account Collateral as the Secured Party may from time to time reasonably request, including, without limitation, and if requested by the Secured Party, duplicate copies of all bank statements which are sent after such notice to the Customer, but the Bank shall have no liability to the Secured Party for failure to send such information. The Customer hereby consents to such information being provided to the Secured Party.

 


 

     10. Exculpation. The Bank undertakes to perform only such duties as are expressly set forth herein. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the parties hereto agree that the Bank shall not be liable for any action taken by it or any of its directors, officers, agents or employees in accordance with this Agreement, except for the Bank’s or such person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct. In no event shall the Bank be liable for indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages of any kind whatsoever (including lost profits and lost business opportunity) even if it is advised of the possibility of such damages and regardless of the form of action in which any such damages may be claimed. Without limiting the foregoing, and notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere, the Bank and its officers, employees and agents:
  a.   may in any instance where the Bank determines that it lacks or is uncertain as to its authority to take or refrain from taking certain action, or as to the requirements of this Agreement under any circumstance before it, delay or refrain from taking action unless and until it has received instructions from the Secured Party or advice from legal counsel (or other appropriate advisor), as the case may be;
 
  b.   may consult with legal counsel selected by it (or other experts for the Secured Party or the Customer), and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it or them in good faith in accordance with the advice of such experts;
 
  c.   will not be responsible to the Secured Party for any statement, warranty or representation made by any party other than the Bank in connection with this Agreement;
 
  d.   will have no duty to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance by the Customer of any of the terms, conditions or covenants of any security agreement with the Secured Party;
 
  e.   will not be responsible to the Secured Party or the Customer for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, effectiveness or sufficiency of this Agreement, (provided, however, that the Bank warrants below that the Bank has legal capacity to enter into this Agreement);
 
  f.   will not incur any liability by acting or not acting in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement or other instrument or writing reasonably believed by it or them in good faith to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties;
 
  g.   will not incur liability for any notice, consent, certificate, statement, wire instruction, telecopy, or other writing which is delayed, canceled or changed without the actual knowledge of the Bank, or its officers, employees or agents;
 
  h.   shall not be deemed to have or be charged with notice or knowledge of any fact or matter unless a written notice thereof has been received by the Bank at the address and to the person designated in (or as subsequently designated pursuant to) this Agreement;

 


 

  i.   shall not be obligated or required by any provision of this Agreement to expend or risk the Bank’s own funds, or to take any action (including but not limited to the institution or defense of legal proceedings) which in its or their judgment may cause it or them to incur or suffer any expense or liability; provided, however, if the Bank elects to take any such action it shall be entitled to security or indemnity for the payment of the costs, expenses (including but not limited to attorneys’ fees) and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby, satisfactory to the Bank.
     11. Indemnity. (a) The Customer agrees to indemnify the Bank and its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, agents, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) and hold each Indemnitee harmless against any other loss, damage, claim, liability, penalty, judgments, settlements, actions, suits, proceedings, litigation, investigations, costs or expenses (including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of in house or outside counsel and experts and their staffs and all expense of document location, duplication and shipment) (collectively “Losses”) which such Indemnitee may suffer as a direct result of the Bank’s execution and performance of this Agreement, tax reporting or withholding, the enforcement of any rights or remedies under or in connection with this Agreement, honoring any instructions or direction it receives from the Secured Party with respect to the Account during the term of this Agreement or, to the extent required by this Agreement, not honoring any instructions it receives from the Customer with respect to the Account during the term of this Agreement, other than any loss, damage or expense incurred as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnitee.
     (b) The Secured Party agrees to indemnify the Bank and its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, agents, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) and hold each Indemnitee harmless against any other loss, damage, claim, liability, penalty, judgments, settlements, actions, suits, proceedings, litigation, investigations, costs or expenses (including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of in house or outside counsel and experts and their staffs and all expense of document location, duplication and shipment) (collectively “Losses”) which such Indemnitee may suffer as a direct result of the Bank’s execution and performance related to honoring any instruction or direction it receives from the Secured Party with respect to the Account during the term of this Agreement, other than any loss, damage or expense incurred as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnitee.
     12. No Other Assignments. Bank represents and warrants to Secured Party that no other notices of assignment of, lien upon or security interest in the Account or the Account Collateral are reflected in Bank’s records concerning the Account. The Customer hereby instructs the Bank and the Bank hereby agrees to record in the Bank’s records concerning the Account a notice of the assignment of the Account conferred by this Agreement in a form that comports with the Bank’s customary account practices. Bank agrees with and covenants to Secured Party that it shall not enter into any other agreement (other than the Bank’s customary deposit agreements with the Customer with respect to the Account) with any person which would obligate Bank to follow such person’s instructions with respect to the Account or the Account Collateral, or which would otherwise confer control of the Account or the Account Collateral upon such person.

 


 

     13. Termination. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until such time as the Secured Party shall deliver written notice to the Bank of termination. All rights of the Bank under Sections 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 for the period prior to any such termination shall survive such termination.
     14. Bank’s Right to Resign. The Bank reserves the right to close the Account and terminate the Bank’s obligations hereunder upon at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Customer and Secured Party. Upon the effectiveness of such resignation, the Bank shall pay over all funds in the Account and all other Account Collateral in the Account to the Secured Party or in accordance with the Secured Party’s written instructions whereupon, in either case, (i) this Agreement shall terminate, and (ii) no party hereto shall have any further liability hereunder.
     15. Notices. All notices, requests or other communications given to the Customer, the Secured Party or the Bank hereunder shall be given in writing (including facsimile transmission), at the address specified below:

on the next Business Day (as hereinafter defined) if sent by overnight courier; or (c) if given to any other acceptable means, when delivered at the address specified in this Section. In the event that the Bank, in its sole discretion, shall determine that an emergency exists, the Bank may use such other means of communication as the Bank deems appropriate. “Business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which the Bank is authorized or required by law or executive order to remain closed.
     16. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES, AND THE BANK’S JURISDICTION FOR PURPOSES OF SECTION 9-304 OF THE UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE SHALL BE NEW YORK. EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION ON THE GROUNDS OF VENUE, FORUM NON-CONVENIENS OR ANY SIMILAR GROUNDS AND IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS BY MAIL OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW AND CONSENTS TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS LOCATED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK. THE PARTIES FURTHER HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LAWSUIT OR JUDICIAL PROCEEDING ARISING OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.
     17. Miscellaneous Provisions. This Agreement shall supersede any other agreement (to the extent conflicting herewith) relating to the matters referred to herein, and shall supersede any conflicting provision of the Bank’s customary account documentation or any other account agreement (collectively, the “Deposit Agreements”) between the Customer and the Bank (which Deposit Agreements shall remain in full force and effect). All items deposited into the Account shall be processed in accordance with the Deposit Agreements to the extent not conflicting with the terms of this Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be prohibited or unenforceable by reason of any applicable law of a jurisdiction, then such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions thereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in such jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provisions in any other jurisdiction. Where, however, the conflicting provisions of any such applicable law may be waived, they are hereby irrevocably waived by the parties hereto to the fullest extent permitted by law, to the end that this Agreement shall be enforced as written. This Agreement is binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and shall inure to their benefit. This Agreement may not be changed, amended, modified or waived orally, except by a writing signed by the parties hereto. Any provision of this Agreement that may prove unenforceable under any law or regulation shall not affect the validity of any other provision hereof. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
     18. Force Majure. No party to this Agreement is liable to any other party for losses due to, or if it is unable to perform its obligations under the terms of this Agreement because of, acts of God, fire, war, terrorism, floods, strikes, electrical outages, equipment or transmission failure, or other causes reasonably beyond its control.
     19. Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the parties hereto and nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied,

 


 

shall be construed to give to any person or entity other than the Bank, the Customer or the Secured Party any legal or equitable right, remedy, interest or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any funds deposited hereunder.
     20. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto, and shall remain in full force and effect (and the Bank shall be entitled to rely thereon) until terminated by mutual agreement of all of the parties hereto.
     21. Security Procedures. Prior to receipt of a Notice of Exclusive Control, in the event funds transfer instructions are given, whether in writing, by telecopier or otherwise, the Bank is authorized to seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone call-back to the Customer representative (s) designated on Schedule 1 hereto (“Schedule 1”) and upon and following receipt of a Notice of Exclusive Control, the Bank is authorized to seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone call-back to the Secured Party’s representative depicted on Schedule 1, and the Bank may rely upon the confirmation of anyone purporting to be the person or persons so designated. The persons and telephone numbers for call-backs may be changed only in a writing actually received and acknowledged by the Bank. If the Bank is unable to contact any of the authorized representatives identified in Schedule 1, the Bank is hereby authorized to seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone call-back to any one or more of the Customer’s, if applicable, or Secured Party’s executive officers, (“Executive Officers”), which shall include the titles of                                         , as the Bank may select. Such “Executive Officer” shall deliver to the Bank a fully executed Incumbency Certificate, and the Bank may rely upon the confirmation of anyone purporting to be any such officer. The Bank and the beneficiary’s bank in any funds transfer may rely solely upon any account numbers or similar identifying numbers provided by the Secured Party to identify (i) the beneficiary, (ii) the beneficiary’s bank, or (iii) an intermediary bank. The Bank may apply any of the Account Collateral for any payment order it executes using any such identifying number, even when its use may result in a person other than the beneficiary being paid, or the transfer of funds to a bank other than the beneficiary’s bank or an intermediary bank designated. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that these security procedures are commercially reasonable.

SCHEDULE 2
Bank’s Compensation
Schedule of Fees for Bank Services
Based upon our current understanding of your proposed transaction, our fees are as follows:
     
Account Acceptance Fee   Waived
Encompassing review, negotiation and execution of governing documentation, opening of the account, and completion of all due diligence documentation. Payable upon closing.
     
Annual Administration Fee   $7,500.00
The Administration Fee covers our usual and customary ministerial duties, including record keeping, distributions, document compliance and such other duties and responsibilities expressly set forth in the governing documents for each transaction. Payable upon closing and annually in advance thereafter, without pro-ration for partial years.
Extraordinary Services and Out-of Pocket Expenses
Any additional services beyond our standard services as specified above, and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses including attorney’s or accountant’s fees and expenses will be considered extraordinary services for which related costs, transaction charges, and additional fees will be billed at the Bank’s then standard rate. Disbursements, receipts, investments or tax reporting exceeding 25 items per year may be treated as extraordinary services thereby incurring additional charges.
Disclosure & Assumptions
  Please note that the fees are based on a review of the transaction documents provided and an internal due diligence review. JPMorgan reserves the right to revise, modify, change and supplement the fees quoted herein if the assumptions underlying the activity in the account, level of balances, market volatility or conditions or other factors change from those used to set our fees.
 
  The Deposits in the Account shall be continuously invested in a JPMorgan Chase Bank money market deposit account (“MMDA”) or a JPMorgan Chase Bank Cash Compensation account. MMDA and Cash Compensation Accounts have rates of compensation that may vary from time to time based upon market conditions.
 
  The Parties acknowledge and agree that they are permitted by U.S. law to make up to six (6) pre-authorized withdrawals or telephonic transfers from an MMDA per calendar month or statement cycle or similar period. If the MMDA can be accessed by checks, drafts, bills of exchange, notes and other financial instruments (“Items”), then no more than three (3) of these six (6) transfers may be made by an Item. The Escrow Agent is required by U.S. law to reserve the right to require at least seven (7) days notice prior to a withdrawal from a money market deposit account.
 
  Payment of the invoice is due upon receipt.

5.7 LESSOR’s Bank Account. The Security Deposit, Transaction Fee, Rent, Reserves and any other payment due under this Lease will be paid by wire transfer of immediately available U.S. Dollar funds to LESSOR’s bank account at:
International Lease Finance Corporation
Account No. 910-274-9067
JPMorgan Chase Bank
270 Park Avenue
New York, New York 10017
ABA# 021000021
or to such other bank account as LESSOR may from time to time designate by written notice (“LESSOR’s Bank”). When it is stated in this Lease that an installment of the Security Deposit, the Rent, Reserves or any other payment is due or must be paid or made by LESSEE by a specific date, then such payment actually must be received by LESSOR’s Bank on or before such specific date, even if, in order for such payment to be received by LESSOR’s Bank by such specific date, LESSEE must initiate the wire transfer prior to such specific date.
5.8 Default Interest. If LESSOR’s Bank does not receive the Rent or any other amount on or before the specific date when due, LESSOR will suffer loss and damage the exact nature and amount of which are difficult or impossible to ascertain. LESSEE will pay LESSOR as supplemental Rent (by way of agreed compensation and not as a penalty) interest on any due and unpaid amounts payable by LESSEE under this Lease. Interest will be calculated at a per annum rate (based on a 360-day year) which is equal to 5% plus the Prime Rate in effect on the date on which the amount was originally due for the period from the date the amount originally was due through the date the amount actually is received at LESSOR’s Bank or, in the case of LESSOR’s performance of LESSEE’s obligations hereunder, from the date of payment by LESSOR through the date of LESSEE’s repayment to LESSOR (“Default Interest”). Default Interest will accrue on a day-to-day basis and be compounded monthly.
5.9 Increase in Rent. If, at any time during the Lease Term, either (a) LESSEE fails to make any three consecutive payments of Rent, Reserves or Security Deposit installments (or any combination thereof) as and when required by the Lease or (b) any single Rent, Reserves or Security Deposit installment payment remains due and unpaid for more than 90 days, then the Rent payable by LESSEE in accordance with Article 5.4.1 will automatically increase by 3% for the remainder of the Lease Term, commencing with the Rent payable immediately after the first to occur of (a) or (b) above. Nothing in this Article 5.9 will limit LESSOR’s right to receive Default Interest on such late payments or LESSOR’s rights and remedies pursuant to Article 25 on account of such Events of Default.
5.10 No Deductions or Withholdings. All payments by LESSEE under this Lease, including the Security Deposit, Transaction Fee, Rent, Reserves, Default Interest, fees,
ARTICLE 5
SECURITY DEPOSIT, TRANSACTION FEE,
RENT, RESERVES AND OTHER PAYMENTS

18


 

indemnities or any other item, will be made in full without any deduction or withholding whether in respect of set-off, counterclaim, duties, or Taxes (as defined in Article 16) imposed in the State of Registration or any jurisdiction from which such payments are made unless LESSEE is prohibited by Law from doing so, in which event LESSEE will gross up the payment amount such that the net payment received by LESSOR after any deduction or withholding equals the amounts called for under this Lease. LESSEE will also do all of the following:
5.10.1 Ensure that the deduction or withholding does not exceed the minimum amount legally required;
5.10.2 Pay to the relevant Government Entities within the period for payment permitted by applicable Law the full amount of the deduction or withholding (including the full amount of any deduction or withholding from any additional amount paid pursuant hereto); and
5.10.3 Furnish to LESSOR within 30 days after each payment an official receipt of the relevant Government Entities involved for all amounts so deducted or withheld.
5.11 Value Added Taxes. The Rent and other amounts payable by LESSEE under this Lease are exclusive of any value added tax, turnover tax or similar tax or duty.
5.12 Wire Transfer Disbursement Report. At the time of each Rent or other payment, LESSEE will advise LESSOR in writing of the payment being made by LESSEE and the allocation of such payment to the Security Deposit, Rent, Reserves, Default Interest and other charges. Notwithstanding the allocation set forth in LESSEE’s report, in the event LESSEE is in default under this Lease, LESSOR will have complete discretion to allocate LESSEE’s payments as LESSOR determines.
5.13 Net Lease.
5.13.1 This Lease is a net lease and LESSEE’s obligation to pay Rent and make other payments in accordance with this Lease will be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and regardless of other events, including the following:
(a) any right of set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right (including any right of reimbursement) which LESSEE may have against LESSOR, Prior Lessee, Manufacturer, the Engine manufacturer or any other person for any reason, including any claim LESSEE may have for the foregoing;
(b) unavailability or interruption in use of the Aircraft for any reason, including a requisition thereof or any prohibition or interference with or other restriction against LESSEE’s use, operation or possession of the Aircraft (whether by Law or
ARTICLE 5
SECURITY DEPOSIT, TRANSACTION FEE,
RENT, RESERVES AND OTHER PAYMENTS

otherwise), any defect in title, airworthiness, merchantability, fitness for any purpose, condition, design, specification or operation of any kind or nature of the Aircraft, the ineligibility of the Aircraft for any particular use or trade or for registration under the Laws of any jurisdiction or Total Loss of the Aircraft;
(c) insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, dissolution, liquidation, receivership, administration or similar proceedings by or against LESSOR, LESSEE, Prior Lessee, Manufacturer, the Engine manufacturer or any other Person;
(d) invalidity or unenforceability or lack of due authorization of or other defect in this Lease;
(e) failure or delay on the part of any party to perform its obligations under this Lease; or
(f) any other circumstance which but for this provision would or might have the effect of terminating or in any other way affecting any obligation of LESSEE hereunder.
5.13.2 Nothing in Article 5.13 will be construed to limit LESSEE’s rights and remedies in the event of LESSOR’s breach of its covenant of quiet enjoyment set forth in Article 21.2 or to limit LESSEE’s rights and remedies to pursue in a court of law any claim it may have against LESSOR or any other Person.
5.14 Currency Indemnity. If under any applicable Law, whether as a result of a judgment against LESSEE or the liquidation of LESSEE or for any other reason, any payment hereunder is required to be made or recovered in a currency other than Dollars then, to the extent that the payment (when converted into Dollars at the “rate of exchange” on the date of payment or, in the case of a liquidation, the latest date for the determination of liabilities permitted by the applicable Law) falls short of the amount payable under this Lease, LESSEE will as a separate and independent obligation, fully indemnify LESSOR against the amount of the shortfall. If the amount received by LESSOR upon converting the payment into Dollars exceeds the amount payable under this Lease, LESSOR will remit such excess to LESSEE. For the purposes of this paragraph “rate of exchange” means the rate at which LESSOR is able on the relevant date to purchase Dollars in New York or London (at LESSOR’s option) with such other currency.
5.15 LESSOR Performance of LESSEE Obligation. If LESSEE fails to make any payment under this Lease to a third party in connection with the Aircraft or fails to perform any other obligation required under this Lease, LESSOR may (but is not required to) at its election and without waiver of its rights perform such obligation and/or pay such amount. Within five Business Days after written notice to LESSEE of the amount paid by LESSOR on behalf of LESSEE, LESSEE will repay such amount to LESSOR together with Default Interest. Such

payment to LESSOR will constitute additional Rent payable by LESSEE to LESSOR hereunder. Any payment, performance or compliance by LESSOR of a LESSEE obligation hereunder will not affect the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default, as the case may be.
5.16 Consideration for Rent and other Amounts. The amount of the Rent and other payments contained in this Lease are in consideration of LESSEE’s waiver of warranties and acceptance of the disclaimers and LESSEE’s provision of indemnities set forth in Articles 8 and 17, respectively, and the other provisions of this Lease.

13.9 Reimbursement after Termination Date. LESSEE may not submit any invoice for reimbursement from the Reserves after the Termination Date unless on or prior to such date LESSEE has notified LESSOR in writing that such outstanding invoice will be submitted after the Termination Date and the anticipated amount of such invoice. So long as LESSEE has provided such notice to LESSOR, LESSEE may then submit such outstanding invoice at any time within six months after the Termination Date. Subject to the foregoing, any balance remaining in the Reserves on the Termination Date, including termination on account of a Total Loss of the Aircraft, will be retained by LESSOR.

16.1 General Obligation of LESSEE. Except as set forth in Article 16.2, LESSEE agrees to pay promptly when due, and to indemnify and hold harmless LESSOR on a full indemnity basis from, all license and registration fees and all taxes, fees, levies, imposts, duties, charges, deductions or withholdings of any nature (including without limitation any value added, franchise, transfer, sales, gross receipts, use, business, excise, turnover, personal property, stamp or other tax) together with any assessments, penalties, fines, additions to tax or interest thereon, however or wherever imposed (whether imposed upon LESSEE, LESSOR, on all or part of the Aircraft, the Engines or otherwise), by any Government Entity or taxing authority in the U.S., or any foreign country or by any international taxing authority (including the City or County of Los Angeles), upon or with respect to, based upon or measured by any of the following (collectively, “Taxes”):
16.1.1   the Aircraft, Engines, APU or any Parts;
 
16.1.2   the use, operation or maintenance of the Aircraft or carriage of passengers or freight during the Lease Term and until the Termination Date;
 
16.1.3   this Lease, the payments due hereunder and the terms and conditions hereof; and
 
16.1.4   the ownership, financing, delivery, import or export, return, sale, payment of Total Loss Proceeds or other disposition of the Aircraft.
16.2 Exceptions to Indemnity. The indemnity provided for in Article 16.1 does not extend to any of the following Taxes:
16.2.1   Taxes imposed by the U.S. or the State of California on the net income, gross receipts, capital or net worth of LESSOR;

TAXES

16.4 Timing of Payment. Any amount payable to LESSOR pursuant to this Article 16 will be paid within 10 days after receipt of a written demand therefor from LESSOR accompanied by a written statement describing in reasonable detail the basis for such indemnity and the computation of the amount so payable; provided, however, that such amount need not be paid by LESSEE prior to the earlier of (a) the date any Tax is payable to the appropriate Government Entity or taxing authority or (b) in the case of amounts which are being contested by LESSEE in good faith or by LESSOR pursuant to Article 16.5, the date such contest is finally resolved.
16.5 Contests. If a claim is made against LESSOR for Taxes with respect to which LESSEE is liable for a payment or indemnity under this Lease, LESSOR will promptly give LESSEE notice in writing of such claim; provided, however, that LESSOR’s failure to give notice will not relieve LESSEE of its obligations hereunder except to the extent such failure materially impairs or precludes LESSEE’s ability to contest the claim. So long as (a) a contest of such Taxes does not involve any danger of the sale, forfeiture or loss of the Aircraft or any interest therein, (b) if LESSOR so requests, LESSEE has provided LESSOR with an opinion of independent tax counsel that a reasonable basis exists for contesting such claim and (c) adequate reserves have been made for such Taxes or, if required, an adequate bond has been posted, then LESSOR at LESSEE’s written request will in good faith, with due diligence and at LESSEE’s expense, contest (or permit LESSEE to contest in the name of LESSEE or LESSOR) the validity, applicability or amount of such Taxes.

Except as set forth in Article 17.2, LESSEE agrees to indemnify and hold harmless LESSOR and its officers, directors, employees, agents and shareholders (individually an “Indemnitee” and collectively “Indemnitees”) from any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, fines, penalties, claims, actions, suits, costs, disbursements and expenses (including legal fees, costs and related expenses) of every kind and nature (collectively “Expenses”) which are imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee or the Aircraft by any Person other than LESSEE and which are in any way relating to, based on or arising out of any of the following:
17.1.1   the operation, possession, use, non-use, control, leasing, subleasing, maintenance, storage, overhaul, testing or inspections of the Aircraft, any Engine, the APU or any Part (whether by LESSEE, any sublessee or any other Person) during the Lease Term and until the Termination Date (including the acceptance flights at return), whether or not the same is in compliance with the terms of this Lease, including without limitation claims for death, personal injury, property damage, other loss or harm to any Person and claims relating to any Laws, including without limitation environmental control, noise and pollution laws, rules or regulations;
 
17.1.2   fuel, airport or enroute navigation charges (including Eurocontrol charges), navigation service charges, landing fees and all charges payable for the use of or for services provided at any airport, whether in respect of the Aircraft or any other aircraft of LESSEE, during the Lease Term and until the Termination Date;
 
17.1.3   the manufacture, design, testing or inspections (including the acceptance flights at Delivery), acceptance, rejection, delivery, return, sale after an Event of Default, import, export, condition, repair, modification, servicing, rebuilding, airworthiness, registration, reregistration, performance, merchantability, fitness for use of the Aircraft, the APU or any Part, enforcement of warranties whether in LESSOR’s or LESSEE’s name, customer support, product support, information or training provided by Manufacturer and other vendors, substitution or replacement of an Engine, the APU or any Part under this Lease, or other transfer of use or possession of the Aircraft, an Engine, the APU or any Part (including under a sublease, pooling or interchange arrangement) including without limitation latent and other defects, whether or not discoverable and patent, trademark or copyright infringement;
 
17.1.4   the prevention or attempt to prevent the arrest, confiscation, seizure, taking in execution, impounding, forfeiture or detention of the Aircraft, or in securing the release of the Aircraft; or
ARTICLE 17
INDEMNITIES

53


 

17.1.5   as a consequence of any Default or Event of Default by LESSEE.
The foregoing indemnity by LESSEE is intended to include and cover any Expense to which an Indemnitee may be subject (in contract, tort, strict liability or under any other theory) regardless of the negligence, active or passive or any other type, of such Indemnitee, so long as such Expense does not fall within any of the exceptions listed in Article 17.2.
17.2 Exceptions to General Indemnities. The indemnity provided for in Article 17.1 will not extend to Expenses of any Indemnitee to the extent resulting from or arising out of any of the following:
17.2.1   Expenses which LESSEE and LESSOR mutually agree or, absent mutual agreement, are judicially determined to have resulted from the willful misconduct of such Indemnitee;
 
17.2.2   Expenses which LESSEE and LESSOR mutually agree or, absent mutual agreement, are judicially determined to be attributable to acts or events which occur after the Termination Date and return of the Aircraft to LESSOR in the condition required hereunder, but in any such case only to the extent not attributable to acts or omissions of LESSEE;
 
17.2.3   Expenses representing Taxes, it being acknowledged that the terms of Article 16 apply exclusively to LESSEE’s indemnity obligations with respect to Taxes; or
 
17.2.4   Expenses due to the breach by LESSOR of its covenant of quiet enjoyment pursuant to Article 21.2 (except to the extent covered by the insurances LESSEE is required to carry pursuant to Article 18 or other LESSEE insurances).
17.3 After-Tax Basis. The amount which LESSEE will be required to pay with respect to any Expense indemnified against under Article 17.1 will be an amount sufficient to restore the Indemnitee, on an after-tax basis, to the same position such Indemnitee would have been in had such Expense not been incurred.
17.4 Timing of Payment. It is the intent of the parties that each Indemnitee will have the right to indemnification for Expenses hereunder as soon as a claim is made and as soon as an Expense is incurred, whether or not such claim is meritorious and whether or not liability is established (but subject to Article 17.8). LESSEE will pay an Indemnitee for Expenses pursuant to this Article 17 within 10 days after receipt of a written demand therefor from such Indemnitee accompanied by a written statement describing in reasonable detail the basis for such indemnity.
ARTICLE 17
INDEMNITIES

54


 

17.5 Subrogation. Upon the payment in full of any indemnity pursuant to this Article 17 by LESSEE, LESSEE will be subrogated to any right of the Indemnitee in respect of the matter against which such indemnity has been made.
17.6 Notice. Each Indemnitee and LESSEE will give prompt written notice one to the other of any liability of which such party has knowledge for which LESSEE is, or may be, liable under Article 17.1; provided, however, that failure to give such notice will not terminate any of the rights of Indemnitees under this Article 17 except to the extent that LESSEE has been materially prejudiced by the failure to provide such notice.
17.7 Refunds. If any Indemnitee obtains a recovery of all or any part of any amount which LESSEE has paid to such Indemnitee, such Indemnitee will pay to LESSEE the net amount recovered by such Indemnitee.
17.8 Defense of Claims. Unless a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, LESSEE and its insurers will have the right (in each such case at LESSEE’s sole expense) to investigate or, provided that LESSEE or its insurers have not reserved the right to dispute liability with respect to any insurance policies pursuant to which coverage is sought, defend or compromise any claim covered by insurance for which indemnification is sought pursuant to Article 17.1 and each Indemnitee will cooperate with LESSEE or its insurers with respect thereto. If LESSEE or its insurers are retaining attorneys to handle such claim, such counsel must be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitees. If not, the Indemnitees will have the right to retain counsel of their choice at LESSEE’s expense.
17.9 No Double Recovery. Without limiting LESSOR’s right to pursue payment from LESSEE for a particular Expense under both this Article 17 and Article 25.6, LESSOR will not be entitled to actually receive payment from LESSEE for the same Expense twice.
17.10 Survival of Obligation. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, the provisions of this Article 17 will survive the Termination Date and continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any breach by LESSOR or LESSEE of the terms of this Lease, the termination of the lease of the Aircraft to LESSEE under this Lease or the repudiation by LESSOR or LESSEE of this Lease.

     ARTICLE 18 INSURANCE
18.1 Categories of Insurance. Throughout the Lease Term and until the Termination Date, LESSEE will, at its own expense, effect and maintain in full force and effect the types of insurance and amounts of insurance (including deductibles) described in Exhibits C and E through such brokers and with such insurers as may be approved by LESSOR, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, in London or New York or such other insurance markets as mutually agreed upon by the parties.
18.2 Write-back of any Date Recognition Exclusion. In the event any of LESSEE’s insurances (either the primary insurance or the reinsurance) contain any date recognition exclusion clause or similar clause excluding from such insurance coverage damage to any property (including the Aircraft) or death or injury to any person on account of accidents, incidents or occurrences caused by date recognition or other Year 2000-related problems, LESSEE at its cost will obtain for the benefit of itself, Manufacturer and LESSOR the broadest write-back available in the London insurance market with respect to such exclusion.
18.3 Write-backs of Exclusions in LSW555.D and AVN 48C. In the event that a write-back of the exclusions (losses due to causes such as dirty bombs, electromagnetic weapons, radioactive contamination and chemical, biological and/or biochemical hazards) to the standard London policy forms LSW555.D and, if issued, AVN 48C becomes available, LESSEE at its cost will obtain for the benefit of itself, Manufacturer and LESSOR the broadest write-back available in the London insurance market with respect to such exclusions.
18.4 Third Party War Liability Insurance. LESSEE will provide evidence to LESSOR that the government indemnity for third party (non-passenger) war liability covers LESSEE and its operation of the Aircraft. For so long as such government indemnity is in effect, LESSOR agrees that LESSEE may carry the sublimit specified by AVN 52E in third party war liability insurance, plus excess third party war liability insurance in such higher sublimit as may be required by the government before its government indemnity becomes effective (currently a total sublimit of US$). However, if and when such indemnity is no longer applicable, LESSEE will carry third party war liability insurance in the amount required by Exhibit C. LESSEE will carry third party war liability insurance in the amount required by Exhibit C.
18.5 Installation of Third Party Engine. If LESSEE installs an engine not owned by LESSOR on the Aircraft, either (a) LESSEE’s hull insurance on the Aircraft will automatically increase to such higher amount as is necessary in order to satisfy both LESSOR’s requirement to receive the Agreed Value in the event of a Total Loss and the amount required by the third party engine owner or (b) separate additional insurance on such engine will attach in order to satisfy separately the requirements of the LESSEE to such third party engine owner.

18.6 LESSOR Coverage for LESSEE’s Employees. LESSOR and the other additional insureds will be covered under LESSEE’s legal liability insurance for death or injury to LESSEE’s employees, pilots and crew.
18.7 Insurance for Indemnities. The insurance referred to in Article 18.1 will in each case include and insure (to the extent of the risks covered by the policies) the indemnity provisions of Article 17 and LESSEE will maintain such insurance of the indemnities for a minimum of two years following the Termination Date.
18.8 AVN 67C. LESSEE will maintain insurances in respect of the Aircraft for purposes of this Lease which incorporate the terms and conditions of AVN 67C, with International Lease Finance Corporation being the “Designated Contract Party”.
18.9 AVN 99. Upon termination of the Lease or if the Aircraft is sold or the Lease is otherwise assigned, LESSEE will effect and maintain applicable liability insurances described in Exhibit C for the benefit of LESSOR and the additional insureds which incorporate the terms and conditions of AVN 99, with International Lease Finance Corporation being the “Designated Contract Party”.
18.10 Insurance required by Manufacturer. During the Lease Term, LESSEE will carry any insurance required by Manufacturer in connection with the assignment of any Manufacturer warranties, customer support or product support to LESSEE. LESSEE will provide LESSOR with an acceptable insurance certificate evidencing such Manufacturer coverage and including the terms set forth in Exhibit E prior to Delivery and at each policy renewal during the Lease Term.
18.11 Pre-Delivery Work or Delivery of Aircraft with Spare Engine. In the event it is necessary for LESSOR to enter into agreements with one or more Persons for (a) the maintenance, repair or modification of the Aircraft (including any Engine or the APU) or (b) the lease of a spare engine, APU or other equipment so that the Aircraft (including any Engine or the APU) will comply with the Delivery conditions set forth in this Lease, LESSEE agrees at LESSOR’s request to add each such Person as an additional insured to the insurance policies which LESSEE is required to maintain pursuant to this Lease, with waivers of subrogation, and that each such Person will be an “Indemnitee” for the purposes of Article 17.
18.12 Renewal. Not less than five Business Days before the expiration or termination date of any insurance required hereunder, LESSEE will provide LESSOR with fax or e-mail confirmation from LESSEE’s insurance brokers that renewed certificates of insurance evidencing the renewal or replacement of such insurance and complying with Exhibit C will be issued on the termination date of the prior certificate. Within seven days after such renewal, LESSEE will furnish its brokers’ certificates of insurance to LESSOR.

18.13 Assignment of Rights by LESSOR. If LESSOR assigns all or any of its rights under this Lease as permitted by this Lease or otherwise disposes of any interest in the Aircraft to any other Person, LESSEE will, upon request, procure that such Person hereunder be added as loss payee and/or additional assured in the policies effected hereunder and enjoy the same rights and insurance enjoyed by LESSOR under such policies. LESSOR will nevertheless continue to be covered by such policies.
18.14 Deductibles. If there is a material adverse change in the financial condition of LESSEE which LESSOR reasonably believes will cause LESSEE to be unable to pay the deductible upon the occurrence of a partial loss of the Aircraft or an Engine, then LESSOR may require LESSEE at LESSEE’s expense to lower its deductibles on the insurance maintained hereunder to a level which is available on commercially reasonable terms in the insurance market.
18.15 Insurance for Subleases. LESSEE will at all times carry the types of insurance and amounts of insurance (including deductibles) described in Exhibit C on a contingent basis during the term of any sublease of the Aircraft pursuant to Article 11. Prior to commencement of the sublease, LESSOR will receive certificates of insurance evidencing both the sublessee’s coverages and the LESSEE’s contingent coverages.
18.16 Insurance for Wet Lease Operations. In the event LESSEE is performing wet lease operations with the Aircraft pursuant to Article 11.6 and the wet lessee is carrying the primary passenger, baggage cargo liability insurance with respect to the flights, then such insurance must meet the requirements of Exhibit C, including with respect to the amounts of coverage, naming of LESSOR as an additional insured and inclusion of the other endorsements set forth in Exhibit C. Moreover, LESSEE will at all times carry contingent passenger, baggage and cargo liability insurances for such flights. Prior to commencement of wet lease operations for a particular wet lessee, LESSOR will receive certificates of insurance from the insurance brokers for LESSEE and, if applicable, the wet lessee evidencing such coverages.
18.17 Other Insurance. LESSOR may from time to time by notice to LESSEE require LESSEE at LESSEE’s expense to effect such other insurance or such variations to the terms of the existing insurance as may then be customary in the airline industry for aircraft of the same type as the Aircraft and at the time commonly available in the insurance market.
18.18 Information. LESSEE will provide LESSOR with any information reasonably requested by LESSOR from time to time concerning the insurance maintained with respect to the Aircraft or in connection with any claim being made or proposed to be made thereunder.
18.19 Currency. All proceeds of insurance pursuant to this Lease will be payable in Dollars except as may be otherwise agreed by LESSOR.

18.20 Grounding of Aircraft. If at any time any of the insurance required pursuant to this Lease will cease to be in full force and effect, LESSEE will forthwith ground the Aircraft and keep the Aircraft grounded until such time as such insurance is in full force and effect again.
18.21 Failure to Insure. If at any time LESSEE fails to maintain insurance in compliance with this Article 18, LESSOR will be entitled but not bound to do any of the following (without prejudice to any other rights which it may have under this Lease by reason of such failure):
(a) to pay any premiums due or to effect or maintain insurance satisfactory to LESSOR or otherwise remedy such failure in such manner as LESSOR considers appropriate (and LESSEE will upon demand reimburse LESSOR in full for any amount so expended in that connection); or
(b) at any time while such failure is continuing, to require the Aircraft to remain at any airport or (as the case may be), proceed to and remain at any airport designated by LESSOR, until such failure is remedied to LESSOR’s satisfaction.
18.22 Reinsurance. Any reinsurance will be maintained with reinsurers and brokers approved by LESSOR. Such reinsurance will contain each of the following terms and will in all other respects (including amount) be satisfactory to LESSOR:
(a) the same terms as the original insurance;
(b) a cut-through and assignment clause satisfactory to LESSOR; and
(c) payment will be made notwithstanding (i) any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or dissolution of any of the original insurers and/or (ii) that the original insurers have made no payment under the original insurance policies.
18.23 Limit on Hull in favor of LESSEE. LESSEE may carry hull all risks or hull war and allied perils on the Aircraft in excess of the Agreed Value (which is payable to LESSOR) only to the extent such excess insurance which would be payable to LESSEE in the event of a Total Loss does not exceed % of the Agreed Value and only to the extent that such additional insurance will not prejudice the insurances required in this Lease or the recovery by LESSOR thereunder. LESSEE agrees that it will not (a) create or permit to exist any liens or encumbrances over the insurances, or its interest therein, except as constituted by this Lease or (b) prejudice LESSOR’s ability to purchase additional insurance for LESSOR’s own benefit.

(c) third, payment of the balance, if any, to LESSEE.
19.3.4   Upon receipt by LESSOR of all monies payable by LESSEE in Article 19.3, provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, this Lease will terminate except for LESSEE’s obligations under Articles 10.5, 16 and 17 which survive the Termination Date.
FOR AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, THE AGREED VALUE OF THE AIRCRAFT WILL BE PAYABLE TO LESSOR PURSUANT TO THIS ARTICLE 19.3 WHEN A TOTAL LOSS OF THE AIRFRAME OCCURS EVEN IF THERE HAS NOT BEEN A TOTAL LOSS OF AN ENGINE, ENGINES OR THE APU.
19.4 Surviving Engine(s). If a Total Loss of the Airframe occurs and there has not been a Total Loss of an Engine or Engines, then, provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at the request of LESSEE (subject to agreement of relevant insurers) and on receipt of all monies due under Article 19.3 and payment by LESSEE of all airport, navigation and other charges on the Aircraft, LESSOR will transfer all its right, title and interest in the surviving Engine(s) to LESSEE, but without any responsibility, condition or warranty on the part of LESSOR other than as to freedom from any LESSOR’s Lien.
19.5 Total Loss of Engine and not Airframe.
19.5.1   Upon a Total Loss of any Engine not installed on the Airframe or a Total Loss of an Engine installed on the Airframe not involving a Total Loss of the Airframe, LESSEE will replace such Engine as soon as reasonably possible by duly conveying to LESSOR title to another engine from LESSEE (or another Person with a net worth at least equal to that of LESSEE) (a) free and clear of all Security Interests (except Permitted Liens) of any kind or description, (b) in airworthy condition and of the same or improved model, service bulletin and modification status and having a value and utility at least equal to the Engine which sustained the Total Loss, (c) not older (by reference to serial number or manufacture date) than the older of the Engines delivered by LESSOR to LESSEE with the Aircraft on the Delivery Date, (d) in the same or better operating condition as the Engine which sustained a Total Loss, including time in service, hours and cycles since new and hours and cycles available to the next inspection, Overhaul or scheduled or anticipated removal and (e) which has not been operated and does not have any modules that have been operated at a higher thrust rating than the Engine which sustained the Total Loss. Such replacement engine will be an “Engine” as defined
ARTICLE 19
LOSS, DAMAGE AND REQUISITION

    in this Lease and the Engine which sustained such Total Loss will cease to be an “Engine”.
 
19.5.2   LESSEE agrees at its own expense to take such action as LESSOR may reasonably request in order that any such replacement Engine becomes the property of LESSOR and is leased hereunder on the same terms as the destroyed Engine. LESSEE’s obligation to pay Rent will continue in full force and effect, but an amount equal to the Net Total Loss Proceeds received by LESSOR with respect to such destroyed Engine will, subject to LESSOR’s right to deduct therefrom any amounts then due and payable by LESSEE under this Lease, be paid to LESSEE.
 
19.5.3   Notwithstanding Articles 19.5.1 and 19.5.2, if at the time of a Total Loss of an Engine not installed on the Aircraft or a Total Loss of an Engine installed on the Airframe not involving a Total Loss of the Airframe, LESSOR and LESSEE are parties to a spare engine lease pursuant to which LESSOR is leasing a spare engine to LESSEE of the same model and type as the Engine which has suffered such Total Loss, LESSOR will receive from LESSEE the replacement cost of the Engine instead of accepting a replacement engine. One of such LESSOR spare engines will then be substituted under this Lease for the Engine which suffered such Total Loss and the applicable spare engine lease will terminate.
19.6 Total Loss of APU.
19.6.1   Upon a Total Loss of the APU when not installed on the Airframe or a Total Loss of the APU while installed on the Airframe not involving a Total Loss of the Airframe, LESSEE will replace such APU as soon as reasonably possible by duly conveying to LESSOR title to another auxiliary power unit (a) free and clear of all Security Interests (except Permitted Liens) of any kind or description, (b) in airworthy condition and of the same or improved model, service bulletin and modification status and having a value and utility at least equal to the APU which sustained the Total Loss, (c) not older (by reference to serial number or manufacture date) than the APU delivered by LESSOR to LESSEE with the Aircraft on the Delivery Date and (d) in the same or better operating condition as the APU which sustained the Total Loss, including time in service, hours and cycles since new and hours and cycles available to the next inspection, Overhaul or scheduled or anticipated removal. Such replacement auxiliary power unit will be the “APU” as defined in this Lease and the auxiliary power unit which sustained such Total Loss will cease to be the “APU”.
 
19.6.2   LESSEE agrees at its own expense to take such action as LESSOR may reasonably request in order that any such replacement APU becomes the property of LESSOR and is leased hereunder on the same terms as the destroyed APU. LESSEE’s obligation to pay Rent will continue in full force and effect, but an amount equal to
ARTICLE 19
LOSS, DAMAGE AND REQUISITION

63


 

    the Net Total Loss Proceeds received by LESSOR with respect to such destroyed APU will, subject to LESSOR’s right to deduct therefrom any amounts then due and payable by LESSEE under this Lease, be paid to LESSEE.
19.7 Other Loss or Damage.
19.7.1   If the Aircraft or any Part thereof suffers loss or damage not constituting a Total Loss of the Aircraft or the Airframe or any Engine or the APU, all the obligations of LESSEE under this Lease (including payment of Rent) will continue in full force.
 
19.7.2   In the event of any loss or damage to the Aircraft or Airframe which does not constitute a Total Loss of the Aircraft or the Airframe, or any loss or damage to an Engine or the APU which does not constitute a Total Loss of such Engine or the APU, LESSEE will at its sole cost and expense fully and promptly repair the Aircraft, Engine or APU in order that the Aircraft, Engine or APU is placed in an airworthy condition and substantially the same condition as it was prior to such loss or damage. All repairs will be performed in a manner which preserves and maintains all warranties and service life policies to the same extent as they existed prior to such loss or damage. LESSEE will notify LESSOR forthwith of any loss, theft or damage to the Aircraft for which the cost of repairs is estimated to exceed US$, together with LESSEE’s proposal and timetable for carrying out the repair. In the event that LESSOR does not agree with LESSEE’s proposal for repair, LESSOR will so notify LESSEE within two Business Days after its receipt of such proposal. LESSEE and LESSOR will then consult with Manufacturer and LESSEE and LESSOR agree to accept as conclusive, and be bound by, Manufacturer’s directions or recommendations as to the manner in which to carry out such repairs. If Manufacturer declines to give directions or recommendations, LESSEE will carry out the repairs in accordance with the directions of LESSOR. If the Aircraft is airworthy or the Engine or APU serviceable notwithstanding the loss or damage, LESSEE will repair such Aircraft, Engine or APU, as the case may be, within the time frame reasonably established by LESSOR given the circumstances.
19.8 Copies of Insurance and Reinsurance Policies. Promptly after the occurrence of a partial loss or Total Loss of the Aircraft, an Engine or the APU, LESSEE will provide LESSOR with copies of LESSEE’s insurance and, if applicable, reinsurance, policies.
19.9 Government Requisition. If the Aircraft, Airframe, any Engine or the APU is requisitioned for use by any Government Entity, LESSEE will promptly notify LESSOR of such requisition. All of LESSEE’s obligations hereunder will continue as if such requisition had not occurred. So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all payments received by LESSOR or LESSEE from such Government Entity will be paid over to or retained by LESSEE. If a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all payments

79


 

23.11.9   LESSEE will provide evidence to LESSOR’s satisfaction that the Engine historical and technical records, borescope inspection, trend monitoring and power assurance run do not reveal any condition which would cause the Engines or any module to be unserviceable, beyond serviceable limits or serviceable with an increased frequency of inspection or with calendar time, flight hour or flight cycle restrictions under the Manufacturer’s aircraft maintenance manual. LESSEE will correct any discrepancies in accordance with the guidelines set out by the Engine manufacturer which may be discovered during such inspection.
 
23.11.10   In the event the Engine historical and technical records, borescope inspection, trend monitoring and other checks specified in Article 23.11.8 result in a dispute regarding the conformity of an Engine with the requirements of this Article 23, LESSEE and LESSOR will consult with the Engine manufacturer and follow the Engine manufacturer’s recommendations (including the accomplishment of an Engine test cell operational check) with regard to determining if such Engine complies with the requirements of this Article 23 and the manner in which any discrepancies from the requirements of this Article 23 will be rectified.
 
23.11.11   With LESSOR and/or its representatives present, LESSEE will perform an APU condition test in accordance with Manufacturer’s aircraft maintenance manual and a complete hot and cold section videotape borescope on the APU. LESSEE will provide evidence to LESSOR’s satisfaction that the APU condition test and borescope inspection do not reveal any condition which would cause the APU to be unserviceable, beyond serviceable limits or serviceable with an increased frequency of inspection or with calendar time, flight hour or flight cycle restrictions. LESSEE will correct any discrepancies in accordance with the guidelines set out by the APU manufacturer which may be discovered during such test or inspections.
 
23.11.12   If the APU historical and technical records and/or condition trend monitoring data indicate an acceleration in the rate of deterioration in the performance of the APU, LESSEE will correct, to LESSOR’s satisfaction, such conditions which are determined to be causing such accelerated rate of deterioration.
 
23.12   Part Lives. At return, the condition of the Aircraft will be as follows:
 
23.12.1   The Aircraft will have zero hours consumed since the Return Check (excluding hours consumed on the acceptance flight).
 
    In addition, for each “HMV Task” that was not performed at the Return Check, LESSEE will pay LESSOR an amount equal to the number of hours, cycles, or calendar days (whichever is the relevant determining factor for such HMV Task pursuant to the MPD) consumed on the Aircraft at return since Delivery (or if, such
ARTICLE 23
RETURN OF AIRCRAFT

HMV Task was performed since Delivery, since the date of performance of such HMV Task) multiplied by an HMV Task cost calculated as follows:
such HMV Task cost will be the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the expected cost of the next performance of such HMV Task by (b) the full allotment of hours, cycles, or calendar days (whichever is the relevant determining factor) which is the interval between such HMV Task on the Aircraft as recommended by the MPD. For avoidance of doubt, the expected cost of the next performance of an HMV Task will include the expected labor and material charges for performing both routine and non-routine work related to the HMV Task. If LESSEE and LESSOR are unable to agree on the expected cost of the next performance of an HMV Task, such cost will be established by taking the average of the price quotes submitted by two reputable FAA or EASA-approved Airframe overhaul facilities (unaffiliated with LESSEE or LESSOR), one selected by LESSEE and the other selected by LESSOR.
23.12.2   Each Engine will meet all of the following:
(a) Each of the high pressure compressor, diffuser/combustion, high pressure turbine nozzles and high pressure turbine modules will have operated no more than hours and cycles since the last shop visit at which a Module Performance Restoration was performed on it. Each Engine will have operated no more than hours and cycles since its last Qualified Performance Restoration.
(b) Each Engine will have at least hours and cycles remaining to operate until its next anticipated removal (based on a review of the Engine historical and technical records, borescope inspection results, power assurance run results, trend monitoring data and the other checks specified in Articles 23.11.6, 23.11.7, 23.11.8 and 23.11.9).
In addition, at return and for each Engine module, LESSEE will pay LESSOR an amount equal to the number of hours consumed on such Engine module at return since its last Module Performance Restoration multiplied by a Module Performance Restoration cost per hour for such module calculated as follows:
the Module Performance Restoration cost per hour for such module will be an amount equal to the product of (i) the maintenance cost per Engine flight hour for maintaining the Engine, multiplied by (ii) the percentage of such Engine maintenance cost applicable to the particular Engine module, all as determined by the Engine manufacturer’s then-current data.
(c) Each Engine will have a remaining hot day takeoff EGT margin sufficient to permit the operation of such Engine for the hours and cycles set forth in the

preceding subparagraph (based on a review of the Engine historical and technical records, borescope inspection results, power assurance run results, trend monitoring data and the other checks specified in Articles 23.11.6, 23.11.7, 23.11.8 and 23.11.9).
(d) The Engine historical and technical records, borescope inspection, trend monitoring, power assurance run and other checks specified in Articles 23.11.6, 23.11.7, 23.11.8 and 23.11.9 indicate that the Engine should operate for the hours and cycles set forth in Article 23.12.2(b).
(e) Each Part of an Engine which has a life limit will have cycles (or hours, if applicable) remaining to operate until its next removal per the Engine manufacturer’s limit.
In addition, at return and for each life-limited Part within an Engine, LESSEE will pay LESSOR an amount equal to the product of (a) the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the cycles consumed on each life-limited Part within an Engine by (ii) the total life of each such life-limited Part, multiplied by (b) the replacement cost of the applicable life-limited Part, all as determined by the Engine manufacturer’s then-current data.
(f) Without limiting Article 12.4, if a life-limited Part installed on an Engine at Delivery was replaced during the Lease Term, then the replacement life-limited Part will have had, at the time of installation, no more cycles consumed than the removed life-limited Part.
23.12.3   The APU will have zero APU hours consumed since the last hot section refurbishment (excluding hours consumed on the acceptance flight).
 
    In addition, at return, LESSEE will pay LESSOR an amount equal to the product of (a) the number of hours consumed on the APU at return since its last hot section refurbishment, multiplied by (b) the then-current APU hot section refurbishment cost per APU hour based on the APU’s manufacturer’s data.
 
    To the extent there are life-limited Parts in the APU, then, for each such life-limited Part, LESSEE will pay LESSOR an amount equal to the product of (a) the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the cycles consumed on each such life-limited Part within the APU since new by (ii) the total life of each such life-limited Part, multiplied by (b) the replacement cost of the applicable life-limited Part, all as determined by the APU manufacturer’s then-current data.
 
23.12.4   Each leg of the Landing Gear will have at least months and cycles remaining pursuant to the MPD until the next scheduled Overhaul or scheduled removal.
ARTICLE 23

In addition, at return and for each leg of the Landing Gear, LESSEE will pay LESSOR an amount equal to the product of (a) the number of days or cycles (as applicable) consumed on such leg of the Landing Gear at return since the last Overhaul (or, if never Overhauled, since Delivery), multiplied by (b) a Landing Gear Overhaul cost per day or cycle (as applicable) for such leg calculated as follows:
such Landing Gear Overhaul cost price per day or cycle (as applicable) for such leg will be the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the expected cost of the next Landing Gear Overhaul for such leg by (ii) the full allotment of days or cycles (as applicable) between scheduled Overhauls or scheduled removals for such leg of the Landing Gear as approved by the MPD. If LESSEE and LESSOR are unable to agree on the expected cost of the next scheduled Landing Gear Overhaul for such leg, such cost will be established by taking the average of the price quotes submitted by two reputable FAA or EASA-approved Landing Gear overhaul facilities (unaffiliated with LESSEE or LESSOR), one selected by LESSEE and the other selected by LESSOR.
23.12.5   Each Part of the Airframe, Engine or APU which has a hard time limit pursuant to the MPD will have the greater of (a) at least 50% of such hard time Part’s full allotment of hours and cycles or (b) hours and cycles remaining to operate until its next scheduled Overhaul or scheduled removal pursuant to the MPD. However, if such hard time Part’s full allotment of hours and cycles between Overhauls pursuant to the MPD is less than hours and cycles, then such hard time Part will be returned with zero hours and zero cycles out of Overhaul.
 
23.12.6   Each life-limited Part of the Airframe or the APU will have the greater of (a) at least 50% of such life-limited Part’s full allotment of hours and cycles or (b) hours and cycles remaining to operate until its next scheduled replacement pursuant to the MPD (in case of an Airframe life-limited Part) or the APU’s manufacturer’s limit (in case of an APU life-limited Part). However, if such life-limited Part’s full allotment of hours and cycles remaining to operate is less than hours and cycles, then such life-limited Part will be returned with 100% of its total approved hours and cycles remaining.
 
23.12.7   Without limiting Article 12.4, if a life-limited Part installed on the Airframe (including the Landing Gear) or APU at Delivery was replaced during the Lease Term, then the replacement life-limited Part will have had, at the time of installation, no more cycles consumed as the removed life-limited Part.
 
23.12.8   Each Part which has a calendar time limit will have months remaining to operate until removal pursuant to the MPD. If a Part with a calendar time limit has a total

    approved calendar time remaining pursuant to the MPD of less than months, then such Part will be returned with 100% of its total approved calendar time remaining until removal.
 
23.12.9   No Part (excluding the life-limited Parts which are covered by Articles 23.12.2(e), 23.12.2(f), 23.12.6 and 23.12.7) will have total hours or total cycles since new greater than 110% of that of the Airframe and, with respect to all such Parts as a group, such Parts will have an average total time since new no greater than that of the Airframe.
 
23.12.10   Each Landing Gear tire and brake will be new or have zero hours/cycles out of Overhaul (except for the acceptance flight).Each Landing Gear tire and brake will have at least 50% of its wear remaining.
23.13 Export and Deregistration of Aircraft. At LESSOR’s request, LESSEE at its cost will (a) provide an Export Certificate of Airworthiness or its equivalent from the State of Registration so that the Aircraft can be exported to the country designated by LESSOR, (b) assist with deregistration of the Aircraft from the register of aircraft in the State of Registration, (c) assist with arranging for prompt confirmation of such deregistration to be sent by the registry in the State of Registration to the next country of registration and (d) perform any other acts reasonably required by LESSOR in connection with the foregoing. If any Aircraft work which LESSEE is not otherwise required to perform hereunder, including engineering, is required in order to obtain such Export Certificate of Airworthiness, LESSEE will perform such work and LESSOR will reimburse LESSEE for such work at LESSEE’s out-of-pocket and unburdened labor and material costs.
23.14 Delay in Return of Aircraft Due to LESSOR Work Requests. LESSEE will not be required to pay Rent to LESSOR for any whole days that return of the Aircraft to LESSOR is delayed solely as a result of LESSOR’s requests that additional work be performed over and above the work necessary to place the Aircraft in the condition required by this Article 23.
23.15 LESSEE’s Continuing Obligations. In the event that LESSEE does not return the Aircraft to LESSOR on the Expiration Date and in the condition required by this Article 23 for any reason (whether or not the reason is within LESSEE’s control):
23.15.1   the obligations of LESSEE under this Lease will continue in full force and effect on a day-to-day basis until such return. This will not be considered a waiver of LESSEE’s Event of Default or any right of LESSOR hereunder.
 
23.15.2   Until such return, the Agreed Value will be an amount equal to the Agreed Value on the day the Aircraft should have been returned to LESSOR pursuant to this Lease.

23.15.3   Without limiting LESSOR’s rights and remedies under Article 25 and except for a delay in return of the Aircraft for the reason set forth in Article 23.14, until such time as the Aircraft is redelivered to LESSOR and put into the condition required by this Article 23, instead of paying the Rent specified in Article 5.4, LESSEE will pay twice the amount of Rent in effect on the Expiration Date for each day from the scheduled Expiration Date until the Termination Date. In determining the applicable normal Rent per day that will be doubled for purposes of this calculation, the Rent payable under Article 5.4.1 will be prorated based on the actual number of days in the applicable . Payment will be made upon presentation of LESSOR’s invoice.
 
23.15.4   LESSOR may elect, in its sole and absolute discretion, to accept the return of the Aircraft prior to the Aircraft being put in the condition required by this Article 23 and thereafter have any such non-conformance corrected at such time as LESSOR may deem appropriate (but within 90 days following the return of the Aircraft) and at commercial rates then charged by the Person selected by LESSOR to perform such correction. Any direct expenses incurred by LESSOR for such correction will be payable by LESSEE within 15 days following the submission of a written statement by LESSOR to LESSEE, identifying the items corrected and setting forth the expense of such corrections. LESSEE’s obligation to pay such amounts will survive the Termination Date.
23.16 Airport and Navigation Charges. LESSEE will ensure that at return of the Aircraft any and all airport, navigation and other charges which give rise or may if unpaid give rise to any lien, right of detention, right of sale or other Security Interest in relation to the Aircraft, Engine, APU or any Part have been paid and discharged in full and will at LESSOR’s request produce evidence thereof satisfactory to LESSOR.
23.17 Return Acceptance Receipt. Upon return of the Aircraft in accordance with the terms of this Lease, LESSEE will prepare and execute two Return Acceptance Receipts in the form and substance of Exhibit M and LESSOR will countersign and return one such Return Acceptance Receipt to LESSEE.

25.3 LESSOR’s General Rights. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, LESSOR may do all or any of the following at its option (in addition to such other rights and remedies which LESSOR may have by statute or otherwise but subject to any requirements of applicable Law):
(a) terminate this Lease by giving written notice to LESSEE;
(b) terminate the rights of LESSEE to use or operate the Aircraft by giving written notice to LESSEE, in which case LESSEE’s obligations under this Lease will continue (including the obligations set forth in Articles 17 and 18);
(c) require that LESSEE immediately cease flying the Aircraft and leave it parked in its then-current location by giving written notice to LESSEE, in which case LESSEE’s obligations under this Lease will continue (including the obligations set forth in Articles 17 and 18);
(d) require that LESSEE immediately move the Aircraft to an airport or other location designated by LESSOR and park the Aircraft there by giving written notice to LESSEE, in which case LESSEE’s obligations under this Lease will continue (including the obligations set forth in Articles 17 and 18);
(e) take possession of the Aircraft. If LESSOR takes possession of the Aircraft, it may enter upon LESSEE’s premises where the Aircraft is located without liability.

LESSOR will be entitled to the full benefit of its bargain with LESSEE;
(f) instruct any maintenance or repair facility which is in possession of the Aircraft, any Engine, the APU or any Part as to its disposition or release;

25.4 Deregistration and Export of Aircraft. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, LESSOR may take all steps necessary to deregister the Aircraft in and export the Aircraft from the State of Registration.
25.5 Cape Town Convention Remedies. If the Cape Town Convention has been or is ratified or made applicable in , then LESSEE and LESSOR acknowledge and agree that:
(a) each of the Events of Default set forth in Article 25.2 will be deemed to be an event that constitutes a “default” as such term is used in the Cape Town Convention; and
(b) upon the occurrence of any Event of Default (i) LESSOR will be afforded all speedy and other relief, rights and remedies specified in the Cape Town Convention as a result of such Event of Default, (ii) all of the rights of LESSOR specified in Article 25.3 will be construed to be “additional remedies” as permitted by the Cape Town Convention which may be exercised by LESSOR pursuant to this Lease subject to the requirements of applicable Law and (iii) LESSOR may, without notice to LESSEE, take all steps as are contemplated by the Cape Town Convention to deregister the Aircraft, export the Aircraft from the State of Registration and, if applicable, discharge the international interest in respect of the Aircraft, this Lease and the other Operative Documents from the International Registry.
25.6 LESSEE Liability for Damages. If an Event of Default occurs, in addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity, LESSOR has the right to recover from LESSEE and LESSEE will pay LESSOR within two Business Days after LESSOR’s written demand, all of the following:
(a) any losses suffered by LESSOR as a result of a delay in Delivery of the Aircraft to LESSEE, including Aircraft parking, maintenance costs and insurance costs during the period of delay;
(b) all amounts which are then due and unpaid hereunder and which become due prior to the earlier of LESSOR’s recovery of possession of the Aircraft or LESSEE making an effective tender thereof;
(c) any losses suffered by LESSOR because of LESSOR’s inability to place the Aircraft on lease with another lessee or to otherwise utilize the Aircraft on financial terms as favorable to LESSOR as the terms hereof (and LESSOR will be entitled to accelerate any and all Rent which would have been due from the date of LESSOR’s recovery or repossession of the Aircraft through the Expiration Date);
(d) if LESSOR elects to dispose of the Aircraft, any losses suffered by LESSOR because the funds arising from a sale or other disposition of the Aircraft are not as profitable to LESSOR as leasing the Aircraft in accordance with the terms hereof
ARTICLE 25
DEFAULT OF LESSEE

92


 

would have been (and LESSOR will be entitled to accelerate any and all Rent which would have been due from the date of LESSOR’s recovery or repossession of the Aircraft through the Expiration Date);
(e) all costs associated with LESSOR’s exercise of its remedies hereunder, including repossession costs, legal fees, Aircraft storage costs, Aircraft re-lease or sale costs and LESSOR’s internal costs and expenses (including the cost of personnel time calculated based upon the compensation paid to the individuals involved on an annual basis and a general LESSOR overhead allocation);
(f) any amount of principal, interest, fees or other sums paid or payable on account of funds borrowed in order to carry any unpaid amount;
(g) any loss, premium, penalty or expense which may be incurred in repaying funds raised to finance the Aircraft or in unwinding any financial instrument relating in whole or in part to LESSOR’s financing of the Aircraft;
(h) any loss, cost, expense or liability sustained by LESSOR due to LESSEE’s failure to redeliver the Aircraft in the condition required by this Lease; and
(i) any other loss, damage, expense, cost or liability which LESSOR suffers or incurs as a result of the Event of Default and/or termination of this Lease.
25.7 Waiver of Default. By written notice to LESSEE, LESSOR may at its election waive any Default or Event of Default and its consequences and rescind and annul any prior notice of termination of this Lease. The respective rights of the parties will then be as they would have been had no Default or Event of Default occurred and no such notice been given.
25.8 Present Value of Payments. In calculating LESSOR’s damages hereunder, upon an Event of Default all Rent and other amounts which would have been due hereunder during the Lease Term if an Event of Default had not occurred will be calculated on a present value basis using a discounting rate of 4% per annum discounted to the earlier of the date on which LESSOR obtains possession of the Aircraft or LESSEE makes an effective tender thereof.
25.9 Use of “Termination Date”. For avoidance of doubt, it is agreed that if this Lease terminates and the Aircraft is repossessed by LESSOR due to an Event of Default, then, notwithstanding the use of the term “Termination Date” in this Lease, the period of the Lease Term and the “Expiration Date” will be utilized in calculating the damages to which LESSOR is entitled pursuant to Article 25.6. For example, it is agreed and understood that LESSOR is entitled to receive from LESSEE the Rent and the benefit of LESSEE’s insurance and maintenance of the Aircraft until expiration of the Lease Term.

     It is further certified that LESSOR has an interest in respect of the Aircraft under the Lease. Accordingly, with respect to losses occurring during the period from the Effective Date until (i) the date and time at which the Insurance expires or, if earlier, (ii) the date and time at which the Insured has no further obligation to insure the Aircraft under the Lease, as notified in writing by LESSOR to the Insurers (via the Appointed Broker if any) (such notification to be given promptly and in any event within 30 days after such date), and in consideration of the Additional Premium, it is confirmed in respect of the said interest(s) of LESSOR that the Insurance afforded by the Policy is in full force and effect, and it is further agreed that the provisions set forth below are specifically endorsed to the Policy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if LESSEE has retained care, custody and control of the Aircraft even after such expiry or agreed termination of the Lease and LESSOR has not expressly agreed to insure the Aircraft, the Policy will remain in full force and effect until the earlier of expiry of the Insurance or the return of the Aircraft to LESSOR.
     1. UNDER THE HULL (ALL RISKS AND HULL WAR AND ALLIED RISKS) AND AIRCRAFT SPARES INSURANCES
     (a) [International Lease Finance Corporation ONLY — NO OTHER CONTRACT PARTIES] In respect of any claim on the Aircraft that becomes payable on the basis of a Total Loss, settlement will be made to, or to the order of LESSOR as sole loss payee, up to the Agreed Value. With respect to repairable damage to an Aircraft or Engine, LESSOR will receive all insurance proceeds in excess of US$500,000 provided that upon receipt by the insurance broker of written notice of a material default on the part of LESSEE, all insurance proceeds which otherwise would be payable to LESSEE will be made directly to LESSOR. In respect of any other claim, settlement (net of any relevant policy deductible) will be made with such party(ies) as may be necessary to repair the Aircraft unless otherwise agreed after consultation between the Insurers and the Insured and, where necessary under the terms of the Lease, LESSOR. Such payments will only be made provided they are in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.
     (b) Insurers agree on a 50/50 settlement in terms of AVS 103.
     (c) Insurers have no right to replace the Aircraft on a Total Loss (arranged, constructive or otherwise).
     (d) Insurers recognize that LESSEE and LESSOR have agreed that a Total Loss of the Airframe will constitute a Total Loss of the Aircraft.
     (e) In the event of a Total Loss of the Aircraft, Insurers agree to pay LESSOR all amounts up to the Agreed Value based solely upon LESSOR’s (not LESSEE’s) execution
EXHIBIT C
CERTIFICATE OF INSURANCE (FOR LESSOR)

of the appropriate form of release/discharge document. LESSOR may sign any required release in lieu of the Insured in the event of a Total Loss, Constructive Total Loss or Arranged Total Loss.
     (f) “Cut-through clause”: Insurers confirm that in the event of any claim arising under the hull insurances, the Reinsurers will in lieu of payment of the Insurers, its successors in interest and assigns, pay to the person named as sole loss payee under the original insurances that portion of any loss due for which the Reinsurers would otherwise be liable to pay the Insurers (subject to proof of loss), it being understood and agreed that any such payment by any Reinsurers will fully discharge and release such Reinsurer from any and all further liability in connection therewith and provide for payment to be made notwithstanding (i) any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or dissolution of the Insurers and (ii) that the Insurers have made no payment under the original insurance policies.
     (g) Insurers confirm that under the insurance policies, if the Insured installs an engine owned by a third party on the Aircraft, either (i) the hull insurance will automatically increase to such higher amount as is necessary in order to satisfy both LESSOR’s requirement to receive the Agreed Value in the event of a Total Loss, Constructive Total Loss or Arranged Total Loss and the amount required by the third party engine owner, or (ii) separate additional insurance on such engine will attach in order to satisfy separately the requirements of the Insured to such third party engine owner.
     2. UNDER THE LEGAL LIABILITY INSURANCE
     (a) Subject to the provisions of this Endorsement, the Insurance will operate in all respects as if a separate Policy had been issued covering each party insured hereunder, but this provision will not operate to include any claim arising howsoever in respect of loss or damage to the Aircraft insured under the Hull or Spares Insurance of the Insured. Notwithstanding the foregoing the total liability of Insurers in respect of any and all Insureds will not exceed the limits of liability stated in the Policy.
     (b) The Insurance provided hereunder will be primary and without right of contribution from any other insurance which may be available to LESSOR or its successors and assigns.
     (c) LESSOR and its successors, assigns, directors, officers, employees and shareholders will be covered under LESSEE’s legal liability insurance for death or injury to LESSEE’s employees.

CERTIFICATE OF INSURANCE (FOR LESSOR)

115


 

     (d) The cover afforded by the Policy is amended by this Endorsement to provide coverage in respect of the liability of LESSOR, its successors, assigns, directors, officers, employees and shareholders, to the pilots and crew of the Equipment and any employees of the Insured, on the basis that for the purposes of providing such coverage under this Endorsement, such pilots, crew and employees shall be deemed to be passengers.
     3. UNDER ALL INSURANCES
     (a) LESSOR, its successors and assigns, and (with respect to Aviation and Airline General Third Party Liability only) its directors, officers, shareholders and employees for their respective rights and interests, are included as Additional Insureds.
     (b) The cover afforded to LESSOR by the Policy in accordance with this Endorsement will not be invalidated by any act or omission (including misrepresentation and non-disclosure) of any other person or party which results in a breach of any term, condition or warranty of the Policy.
     (c) LESSOR will have no responsibility for premium and insurers will waive any right of set-off or counterclaim against LESSOR except in respect of outstanding premium in respect of the Aircraft, provided that Insurer may only set off for premiums against the proceeds of the hull insurance for outstanding premiums in connection with hull all risks and hull war and allied perils insurance.
     (d) Upon payment of any loss or claim to or on behalf of LESSOR, Insurers will to the extent and in respect of such payment be thereupon subrogated to all legal and equitable rights of LESSOR indemnified hereby (but not against LESSOR). Insurers will not exercise such rights without the consent of those indemnified, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. At the expense of Insurers LESSOR will do all things reasonably necessary to assist the Insurers to exercise said rights.
     (e) Except in respect of any provision for Cancellation or Automatic Termination specified in the Policy or any endorsement thereof, cover provided by this Endorsement may only be cancelled or materially altered in a manner adverse to LESSOR by the giving of not less than 30 days’ notice in writing to LESSOR. Notice will be deemed to commence from the date such notice is given by the Insurers. Such notice will NOT, however, be given at normal expiry date of the Policy or any endorsement.

          (b) The charter of LESSEE and all amendments thereto; and
          (c) Such other documents, agreements and instruments, and such treaties, laws, rules, regulations, decrees and the like, as I have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions hereinafter expressed.

     (c) During the continuance of an Event of Default, all rights of each Grantor to exercise or refrain from exercising the voting and other consensual rights that it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(i) and 2.10(a)(ii) shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Senior Security Trustee, which shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise or refrain from exercising such voting and other consensual rights.

Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints, as security for the Secured Obligations, each Security Trustee as such Grantor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, from time to time in such Security Trustee’s discretion during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, to take any action and to execute any instrument that such Security Trustee may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including:
     (a) to ask for, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral;

provided that such Security Trustee’s exercise of any such power shall be subject to Section 2.06(d).
     Section 2.13 Security Trustees May Perform. If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained in this Agreement, any Security Trustee may (but shall not be obligated to) after such prior notice as may be reasonable under the circumstances, itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of such Security Trustee incurred in connection with doing so shall be payable by the Grantors.
     Section 2.14 Covenant to Pay. Each Grantor covenants with each Security Trustee (for the benefit of the Security Trustees and the Secured Parties) that it will pay or discharge any monies and liabilities whatsoever that are now, or at any time hereafter may be, due, owing or payable by such Grantor in any currency, actually or contingently, solely and/or jointly, and/or severally with another or others, as principal or surety on any account whatsoever pursuant to the Transaction Documents in accordance with their terms. Each Grantor agrees that no payment or distribution by such Grantor pursuant to the preceding sentence shall entitle such Grantor to exercise any rights of subrogation in respect thereof until the related Secured Obligations shall have been paid in full. All such payments shall be made in accordance with Section 3.02.
     Section 2.15 Delivery of Collateral Supplements. Upon the acquisition by any Grantor of any Pool Aircraft or Relevant Collateral, each relevant Grantor shall concurrently execute and deliver to each Security Trustee a Collateral Supplement duly completed with respect to such Collateral and shall take such steps with respect to the perfection of such Collateral as are called for by this Agreement for Collateral of the same type; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to impair or otherwise derogate from any restriction on any such action in any Transaction Document; and provided further that the failure of any Grantor to deliver any Collateral Supplement as to any such Collateral shall not impair the lien of this Agreement as to such Collateral.
     Section 2.16 Covenant Regarding Control. No Grantor shall cause nor permit any Person other than the Senior Security Trustee to have “control” (as defined in Section 9-104 of the UCC) of any Blocked Account pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement.

27


 

“supporting obligations” or “letter of credit right” (as such terms are defined in Article 8 or 9 of the UCC) in which it has an interest.
     Section 2.17 Covenant Regarding Blocked Accounts. ILFC and any other Grantor in whose name a Blocked Account is held shall enter into a Deposit Account Control Agreement or a pledge agreement otherwise acceptable to the parties thereto, providing that “control” (as defined in Section 9-104 of the UCC) of such Blocked Account is retained with the Security Trustees; provided, however, that the Security Trustees shall not exercise such “control” (as defined in Section 9-104 of the UCC), block withdrawals from or give instructions on the Blocked Accounts unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
     Section 2.18 Operational Covenants.
     (a) Maintenance of Properties. Each Grantor shall, with respect to each Pool Aircraft Owned by such Grantor that is not subject to a Lease, maintain such Pool Aircraft in a state of repair and condition consistent with Leasing Company Practice with respect to similar aircraft.
     (b) Replacement of Parts; Alterations, Modifications and Additions; Substitutions of Engines. Each Grantor shall, with respect to each Pool Aircraft that is not subject to an Eligible Lease, cause (i) any Parts to be replaced and (ii) any alterations, modifications or additions to any such Airframe or Engine to be performed, in each case, in a manner consistent with Leasing Company Practice with respect to similar aircraft. Each Grantor shall, with respect to each Pool Aircraft that is not subject to a Lease, not cause any Engines to be substituted in a manner inconsistent with Leasing Company Practice.
     (c) Operation and Use. Each Grantor agrees that no Pool Aircraft will be maintained, used or operated in violation of any law, rule or regulation (including airworthiness directives) of any government or Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over such Pool Aircraft or in violation of any airworthiness certificate, license or registration relating to such Pool Aircraft issued by any such government, except for minor violations, and except to the extent any Grantor (or, if a Lease is then in effect with respect to such Pool Aircraft, any Lessee of such Pool Aircraft) is contesting in good faith the validity or application of any such law, rule or regulation in any manner that does not involve any material risk of sale, forfeiture or loss of such Pool Aircraft or any material risk of subjecting any Secured Party to criminal liability or materially impair the Liens created by this Agreement; provided that the Grantors shall only be entitled to contest mandatory grounding orders if they (or the applicable Lessee) do not operate such Pool Aircraft during such contest. The Grantors will not operate any Pool Aircraft, or permit any Pool Aircraft to be operated or located, (i) in any area excluded from coverage by any insurance required by the terms of Section 2.19 and Schedule V of this Agreement or (ii) in any war zone or recognized or threatened areas of hostilities unless covered by war risk insurance in accordance with Section 2.19 and Schedule V of this Agreement, in either case unless indemnified by a government authority as provided therein or unless located there due to an emergency or an event outside the Lessee’s control, but only for so long as such emergency or event continues.

28


 

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, no breach of this Section 2.18(c) shall be deemed to have occurred by virtue of any act or omission of a Lessee or sub-lessee, or of any Person claiming by or through a Lessee or a sub-lessee, or of any Person which has possession of the Pool Aircraft or any Engine for the purpose of repairs, maintenance, modification or storage, or by virtue of any requisition, seizure, or confiscation of the Pool Aircraft (other than seizure or confiscation arising from a breach by the Grantors of this Section 2.18(c)) (each, a “Third Party Event”); provided that (i) neither ILFC nor any other Grantor consents or has consented to such Third Party Event; and (ii) ILFC or the Grantor which is the lessor or owner of such Pool Aircraft promptly and diligently takes such commercially reasonable actions in accordance with Leasing Company Practice in respect of such Third Party Event, including, as deemed appropriate (taking into account, inter alia, the laws of the jurisdictions in which the Pool Aircraft are located), seeking to compel such Lessee or other relevant Person to remedy such Third Party Event or seeking to repossess the relevant Pool Aircraft or Engine.
     (d) Identification of Security Trustee’s Interest. The Grantors agree to affix as promptly as practicable after the Effective Date and thereafter to maintain in the cockpit of each Pool Aircraft, in a clearly visible location, and on each Engine, a nameplate bearing the inscription “MORTGAGED TO WELLS FARGO BANK NORTHWEST, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, AS FIRST LIEN SECURITY TRUSTEE, SECOND LIEN SECURITY TRUSTEE, THIRD LIEN SECURITY TRUSTEE AND FOURTH LIEN SECURITY TRUSTEE” (such nameplate to be replaced, if necessary, with a nameplate reflecting the name of any successor Security Trustee).
     (e) Registration. Each Grantor shall cause each Pool Aircraft to remain duly registered, under the laws of a country or jurisdiction that is not a Prohibited Country or that is the country in which such Pool Aircraft is registered as of the date hereof, in the name of the relevant Grantor if so permitted under the applicable registry; provided that, unless such Grantor provides the Security Trustee with local law mortgages and legal opinions concerning their filing and effectiveness in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Security Trustee, such Grantor shall not register an Aircraft in a jurisdiction that is a party to the Geneva Convention unless (i) such jurisdiction has Ratified the Cape Town Convention or (ii) such Grantor is organized under the laws of Ireland and satisfies the provisions of Section 5.26(c) of the Credit Agreement. Each Security Trustee agrees that it will cooperate with the relevant Grantor in changing the state of registration of any Pool Aircraft, including the implementation of a trust to achieve FAA registration, at the cost of the relevant Grantor and as the relevant Grantor may request, provided that such request does not conflict with the relevant Grantor’s obligations under the Transaction Documents.
     (f) Extension, Amendment or Replacement of Leases. Upon execution of any renewal, extension or replacement Lease, the relevant Grantor shall comply with the provisions of Sections 2.06 and 2.08 of this Agreement, as applicable, and shall deliver the following:
     (i) to the Senior Security Trustee, the Chattel Paper Original, if any, of such renewal, extension or replacement Lease;
     (ii) to each Security Trustee, AIG Funding and the FRBNY, a notice of assignment substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-1 (a “Lessee Notice”) and an

29

     (iii) to each Security Trustee, AIG Funding and the FRBNY, certificates of insurance from qualified brokers of aircraft insurance (or other evidence satisfactory to each Security Trustee, AIG Funding and the FRBNY), evidencing all insurance required to be maintained by the applicable Lessee, together with the endorsements required pursuant to Section 2.19 and Schedule V of this Agreement;
     (iv) to each Security Trustee, AIG Funding and the FRBNY, promptly and in any case within 15 days of the effectiveness of the leasing of such Pool Aircraft, a copy of such Lease, and an amended and restated Schedule 3.19(b) to the Credit Agreement incorporating all information required under such schedule with respect to such renewal, extension or replacement Lease; and
     (v) to each Security Trustee, with respect to any renewal, extension or replacement Lease, copies of such legal opinions with regard to compliance with the registration requirements of the relevant jurisdiction, enforceability of such Lease and such other matters customary for such transactions, in each case to the extent that receiving such legal opinions is consistent with Leasing Company Practice.
     Section 2.19 Insurance. The relevant Grantor shall maintain, or procure that the relevant Lessee maintains, hull and third party liability insurance policies, maintained with insurers or reinsured with reinsurers of recognized responsibility or pursuant to governmental indemnities, in respect of each Pool Aircraft in accordance with the terms of Schedule V hereto.

REMEDIES
     Section 3.01 Remedies. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Transaction Document to the contrary, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and in each case subject to the quiet enjoyment rights of the applicable Lessee of any Pool Aircraft:
     (a) The Senior Security Trustee may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the rights and remedies of the Senior Security Trustee provided for in Section 2.10(c)), all of the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) and all of the rights and remedies under applicable law and also may (i) require any Grantor to, and such Grantor hereby agrees that it shall at its expense and upon request of the Senior Security Trustee forthwith, assemble all or any part of the Collateral as directed by the Senior Security Trustee and make it available to the Senior Security Trustee at a place to be designated by the Senior Security Trustee that is reasonably convenient to both parties and (ii) without notice except as specified below, sell or cause the sale of the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Senior Security Trustee’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such

30


 

other terms as the Senior Security Trustee may deem commercially reasonable. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten days’ prior notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Senior Security Trustee shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Senior Security Trustee may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.
     (b) The Senior Security Trustee may, in addition to or in connection with any other remedies available hereunder or under any other applicable law, exercise any and all remedies granted under the Cape Town Convention as it shall determine in its sole discretion. In connection therewith, the parties hereby agree to the extent permitted by the UCC that (i) Article 9(1) and Article 9(2) of the Convention, wherein the parties may agree or the court may order that any Collateral shall vest in any Security Trustee in or towards satisfaction of the applicable Secured Obligations, shall not preclude any Security Trustee from obtaining title to any Collateral pursuant to any other remedies available under applicable law (including but not limited to Article 9-620 of the UCC); (ii) any surplus of cash or cash proceeds held by any Security Trustee and remaining after payment in full of all the Secured Obligations owed to it shall be paid over to the other Security Trustees in accordance with Section 3.02 hereof; and (iii) the Senior Security Trustee may obtain from any applicable court, pending final determination of any claim resulting from an Event of Default, speedy relief in the form of any of the orders specified in Article 13 of the Convention and Article X of the Protocol as the Senior Security Trustee shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion, subject to any procedural requirements prescribed by applicable laws.
     (c) All cash proceeds received by any Security Trustee in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied in accordance with Section 3.02. Any sale or sales conducted in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.01 shall be deemed conclusive and binding on each Grantor and the Secured Parties.
     Section 3.02 Priority of Payments. The Security Trustees hereby agree that all cash proceeds received by any Security Trustee in respect of any Collateral pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof and any payments by any Grantor to any Security Trustee following an Event of Default shall be paid by each Security Trustee to the relevant Security Trustee in the order of priority set forth below:
     (a) first, to the First Lien Security Trustee for the benefit of the First Lien Secured Parties, until payment in full in cash of the First Lien Secured Obligations then outstanding;
     (b) second, to the Second Lien Security Trustee for the benefit of the Second Lien Secured Parties (for further credit to the FRBNY Account), until payment in full in cash of the Second Lien Secured Obligations then outstanding; provided that, in calculating the amount of Second Lien Secured Obligations outstanding, amounts paid under clause “first” shall be

31


 

deducted therefrom so that all amounts paid in respect of First Lien Secured Obligations shall be credited against Second Lien Secured Obligations;
     (c) third, to the Third Lien Security Trustee for the benefit of the Third Lien Secured Parties, until payment in full in cash of the Third Lien Secured Obligations then outstanding;
     (d) fourth, to the Fourth Lien Security Trustee for the benefit of the Fourth Lien Secured Parties (for further credit to the FRBNY Account), until payment in full in cash of the Fourth Lien Secured Obligations then outstanding; provided that, in calculating the amount of the Fourth Lien Secured Obligations outstanding, amounts paid under clause “third” shall be deducted therefrom so that all amounts paid in respect of Third Lien Secured Obligations shall be credited against Fourth Lien Secured Obligations; and
     (e) fifth, all remaining amounts to the relevant Grantors or whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such amounts;
provided that the Security Trustees may at the instruction of the Secured Parties and without consent of the Grantors amend the order of clauses (a) through (d) above, but may not amend the effect of the provisos in clauses (b) and (d) or clause (e) above without the consent of the Grantors.
     For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding any other provision of the Transaction Documents, in no event shall the Borrowers owe or be charged for or shall Collateral secure an amount in the aggregate greater than the amount equal to the sum of the Second Lien Secured Obligations then outstanding plus the Fourth Lien Secured Obligations then outstanding.
ARTICLE IV
SECURITY INTEREST ABSOLUTE
     Section 4.01 Security Interest Absolute. A separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Grantor to enforce this Agreement, irrespective of whether any action is brought against any other Grantor or whether any other Grantor is joined in any such action or actions. Except as otherwise provided in the Transaction Documents, all rights of the Security Trustees and the security interests and Liens granted under, and all obligations of each Grantor under, until the Secured Obligations then outstanding are paid in full, this Agreement and each other Transaction Document shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of:
     (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Transaction Document, Assigned Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;
     (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, the security for, or in any other term of, all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or

     (e) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of any Grantor; or
     (f) any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Grantor or a third-party grantor of a security interest or a Person deemed to be a surety.
ARTICLE V

     Section 5.01 Authorization and Action.

No Security Trustee in its individual capacity shall be answerable or accountable under any circumstances, except for its own willful misconduct or gross negligence (or simple negligence in the handling of funds or breach of any of its representations or warranties set forth in this Agreement) and no Security Trustee shall be liable for any action or inaction of any Grantor or any other parties to any of the Transaction Documents.

(a) No Security Trustee shall incur any liability to anyone as a result of 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 Security Trustees may accept a copy of a resolution of the board or other governing body of any party to this Agreement or any Transaction Document, certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary thereof or other duly authorized Person of such party as duly adopted and in full force and effect, as conclusive evidence that such resolution has been duly adopted by said board or other governing body and that the same is in full force and effect.

Each Security Trustee shall assume, and shall be fully protected in assuming, that each other party to this Agreement is authorized by its constitutional documents to enter into this Agreement and to take all action permitted to be taken by it pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, and shall not inquire into the authorization of such party with respect thereto.
     (b) Each Security Trustee may execute any of its powers hereunder or perform any duties under this Agreement either directly or by or through agents, including financial advisors, or attorneys or a custodian or nominee, provided, however, that the appointment of any agent shall not relieve the Security Trustee of its responsibilities or liabilities hereunder.
     (c) Each Security Trustee may consult with counsel and any opinion of counsel or any advice of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by them under this Agreement in good faith and in accordance with such advice or opinion of counsel.

     (e) No Security Trustee shall be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there is reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it, and none of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event require any Security Trustee to perform, or be responsible or liable for the manner of performance of, any obligations of any Grantor under any of the Transaction Documents.

35


 

     (f) If any Security Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an exercise of remedies specified in Section 3.01, such expenses (including the fees and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for such services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any bankruptcy law or law relating to creditors’ rights generally.

AGREEMENT BETWEEN SECURED PARTIES
     Section 7.01 Subordination and Priority. (a) Notwithstanding the date, manner or order of attachment or perfection (if any) or the description of any Collateral or security interests, Liens, claims or encumbrances covered or granted by Section 2.01, each Subordinated Security Trustee agrees that the respective rights and interest of the Subordinated Secured Parties in the Collateral are and shall be subordinate, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, to all rights and interest of the Senior Secured Parties in the Collateral, and that the Senior Secured Parties shall have at all times interests prior and senior to that of the Subordinated Secured Parties in all Collateral until the payment in full in cash of all Secured Obligations owed to such Senior Secured Parties.
     (b) For the purposes of this Agreement, no Secured Obligations shall be deemed to have been paid in full until and unless the Security Trustee in respect of such Secured Obligations shall have received payment in full in cash of such Secured Obligations.
     Section 7.02 Exercise of Remedies. (a) Until the date on which all the Secured Obligations owed to the Senior Secured Parties shall have been paid in full, the Senior Security Trustee, in its sole discretion and to the exclusion of the Subordinated Security Trustees, shall have, whether or not any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and both before and after the commencement of any proceeding referred to in Section 7.03(a), the sole and exclusive right (as between the Senior Security Trustee, on the one hand, and the Subordinated Security Trustees, on the other) to take all action with respect to the Collateral, including the right to exercise or direct voting or other consensual rights, to foreclose or forebear from foreclosure in respect of the Collateral and to accept the Collateral in full or partial satisfaction of any Secured Obligation owed to the Senior Secured Parties, all in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Subordinated Secured Parties agree that, until the Secured Obligations owed to the Senior Secured Parties have been paid in full, the only right of the Subordinated Secured Parties under this Agreement is for the Secured Obligations owed to such Subordinated Secured Parties to be secured by the Collateral for the period and to the extent provided for herein and to receive a share of the proceeds of the Collateral, if any.
     (b) The Subordinated Secured Parties agree that, so long as any of the Secured Obligations owed to the Senior Secured Parties shall remain unpaid, none of the Subordinated Secured Parties will commence, or join with any creditor other than the Senior Security Trustee

38


 

and the Senior Secured Parties in commencing, any enforcement, collection, execution, levy or foreclosure proceeding with respect to the Collateral or proceeds of Collateral. Upon request by the Senior Security Trustee, the Subordinated Secured Parties will, at the expense of the relevant Grantors, join in enforcement, collection, execution, levy or foreclosure proceedings and otherwise cooperate fully in the maintenance of such proceedings by the Senior Security Trustee, including by executing and delivering all such consents, pleadings, releases and other documents and instruments as the Senior Security Trustee may reasonably request in connection therewith, it being understood that the conduct of such proceedings shall at all times be under the exclusive control of the Senior Security Trustee.
     (c) The Subordinated Secured Parties agree, upon written request by the Senior Security Trustee, to release the Liens and security interests in favor of the Subordinated Secured Parties in any Collateral and to execute and deliver all such directions, consents, pleadings, releases and other documents and instruments as the Senior Security Trustee may reasonably request in connection therewith, upon any sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of such Collateral or part thereof in accordance with, or for application of proceeds pursuant to, Sections 3.02 and 7.01(a).
     (d) The Subordinated Secured Parties agree that none of the Subordinated Secured Parties will contest, or bring (or join in) any action or proceeding for the purpose of contesting, the validity, perfection or priority of, or seeking to avoid, the rights of the other Secured Parties (including the Senior Secured Parties) in or with respect to the Collateral.
     Section 7.03 Further Agreements of Subordination. The Subordinated Security Trustees agree during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default as follows:
     (a) Upon any distribution of all or any of the Collateral or proceeds of Collateral to creditors of any Grantor upon the dissolution, winding-up, liquidation, examinership, arrangement, reorganization, adjustment, protection, relief, or composition of such Grantor or its debts, whether in any bankruptcy, insolvency, arrangement, reorganization, receivership, examinership, relief or similar proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of such Grantor, or otherwise, any distribution of any kind of Collateral or proceeds of Collateral that otherwise would be deliverable to the Subordinated Security Trustees or the other Subordinated Secured Parties shall be delivered directly to the Senior Security Trustee for application (in the case of cash) to or as collateral (in the case of non-cash property or securities) for the payment or prepayment of the Secured Obligations owed to the Senior Secured Parties until such Secured Obligations shall have been paid in full in accordance with Section 3.02.
     (b) If any proceeding referred to in Section 7.03(a) is commenced by or against any Grantor,
     (i) the Senior Security Trustee is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered (in its own name or in the name of the Senior Secured Parties or otherwise), but shall have no obligation, to demand, sue for, collect and receive every distribution referred to in subsection (a) above and give acquittance therefor and to file claims and proofs of claim and take such other

39


 

action (including enforcing this Agreement) as it may deem necessary for the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights or interests of the Senior Secured Parties hereunder; and
     (ii) the Subordinated Security Trustees shall duly and promptly take such action, at the expense of the relevant Grantors, as the Senior Security Trustee may request (A) to collect Collateral and proceeds of Collateral for the account of the Senior Secured Parties and to file appropriate claims or proofs of claim in respect of Collateral and proceeds of Collateral, (B) to execute and deliver to the Senior Security Trustee such powers of attorney, assignments, or other instruments as the Senior Security Trustee may request in order to enable it to enforce any and all claims with respect to the Collateral and proceeds of Collateral and (C) to collect and receive any and all payments or distributions that may be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to the Collateral or proceeds of Collateral. Without limiting the generality of any of the foregoing, if any proceeding referred to in Section 7.03(a) is commenced by or against any Grantor, the Subordinated Secured Parties shall, upon written demand from the Senior Security Trustee, file such claims in such proceeding as the Senior Security Trustee shall request in such written demand or any subsequent written demand provided in connection therewith; provided, however, that should one or more Subordinated Secured Parties fail to comply fully with any such demand within thirty (30) days of receipt by such Subordinated Secured Party of the relevant demand, such Subordinated Secured Party Creditor shall be deemed to have irrevocably appointed the Senior Security Trustee its attorney-in-fact to file and prosecute any such claim and to dispose of any proceeds of such filing or prosecution in accordance with the terms hereof and of the other Transaction Documents.
     (c) All payments or distributions upon or with respect to the Collateral or proceeds of Collateral that are received by the Subordinated Security Trustees or the other Subordinated Secured Parties contrary to the provisions of this Agreement shall be received for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties, shall be segregated from other funds and property held by the Subordinated Security Trustees or the other Subordinated Secured Parties and shall be forthwith paid over to the Senior Security Trustee in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be applied (in the case of cash) to or held as collateral (in the case of non-cash property or securities) for the payment or prepayment of the Secured Obligations owed to the Senior Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof.
     (d) The Senior Security Trustee is hereby authorized to demand specific performance of this Agreement at any time when any of the Subordinated Security Trustees or the other Subordinated Secured Parties shall have failed to comply with any of the provisions of this Agreement applicable to them. The Subordinated Security Trustees hereby irrevocably waive, on their own behalf and on behalf of the Subordinated Secured Parties, any defense based on the adequacy of a remedy at law that might be asserted as a bar to such remedy of specific performance.
     Section 7.04 Rights of Subrogation. The Subordinated Secured Parties agree that no payment or distributions to the Senior Secured Parties pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall entitle any Subordinated Secured Party to exercise any rights of subrogation in respect thereof until all Secured Obligations owed to the Senior Secured Parties shall have been paid in full.

40


 

     Section 7.05 Further Assurances of Subordinated Security Trustees. Each of the Subordinated Security Trustees shall, at the expense of the relevant Grantors, at any time and from time to time promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that the Senior Security Trustee may reasonably request, in order to protect any right or interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable the Senior Security Trustee to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder.
     Section 7.06 No Change in Rights in Collateral. The Subordinated Security Trustees and the other Subordinated Secured Parties will not sell, assign, pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of any of their rights in the Collateral as such or in proceeds of Collateral as such, without the prior written consent of the Senior Security Trustee. Nothing in this Section 7.06 shall limit the right of any Subordinated Secured Party to transfer any Secured Obligation owed to it.
     Section 7.07 Waiver of Marshalling and Similar Rights. Each of the Subordinated Security Trustees waives, on its own behalf and on behalf of the Subordinated Secured Parties, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any requirement regarding, and agrees not to demand, request, plead or otherwise claim the benefit of, any marshalling, appraisement, valuation or other similar right with respect to the Collateral that may otherwise be available under applicable law or any other similar rights a junior creditor or junior secured creditor may have under applicable law.
     Section 7.08 Enforcement. Each of the Subordinated Secured Parties agrees that this Agreement shall be enforceable against it and the Subordinated Secured Parties under all circumstances, including in any proceeding referred to in Section 7.03(a).
     Section 7.09 Obligations Not Affected. All rights and interests of the Senior Security Trustee and the other Senior Secured Parties hereunder, and all agreements and obligations of the Subordinated Security Trustees and the other Subordinated Secured Parties under this Agreement and any other Transaction Document, shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:
     (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Transaction Document, Assigned Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;
     (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, the security for, or in any other term of, all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from any Transaction Document, Assigned Agreement or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;
     (c) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of the Collateral or any other collateral, or taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any guaranty, for all or any of the Secured Obligations;

41


 

     (d) any manner of application of Collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any Collateral for all or any of the Secured Obligations or any other assets of the Grantors;
     (e) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of any Grantor; or

This Agreement shall continue to be effective or shall be revived or reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Secured Obligations owed to any Senior Secured Party is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Senior Secured Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Grantor, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.
     Section 7.10 Waiver. The Subordinated Security Trustees hereby waive, on their own behalf and on behalf of the Subordinated Secured Parties, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right under Section 9-615 of the N.Y. Uniform Commercial Code to application of the proceeds of disposition (other than as contemplated by this Agreement), any right to notice and objection under Section 9-620 of the N.Y. Uniform Commercial Code and promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Secured Obligations and this Agreement and any requirement that the Senior Security Trustee protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien hereunder or otherwise or any Collateral or any other property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against the Grantors or any other person or entity or any Collateral or any other collateral.
     Section 7.11 Secured Obligations Unimpaired. Nothing in this Agreement shall impair (a) as between the Grantors and any Secured Party, the obligations of the Grantors to such Secured Party, including the Secured Obligations or (b) as between the Senior Secured Parties and the Subordinated Secured Parties, the provisions relating to the priority of payments in Section 3.02; provided that it is understood that the enforcement of rights and remedies against the Collateral shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement.
     Section 7.12 Upon Discharge of Obligations. Upon the payment in full in cash of the Secured Obligations in respect of which it is acting as Security Trustee, the Senior Security Trustee shall, without any further action on its part, be relieved of any obligation under this Agreement with respect to such discharged Secured Obligations and this Agreement shall continue in effect as an agreement among the Grantors and the remaining Security Trustees. Upon the payment in full in cash of the First Lien Secured Obligations, the Second Lien Secured Obligations and the Third Lien Secured Obligations, this Article VII shall cease to be of any effect except for this Section 7.12.

     (g) If, prior to the termination of this Agreement, any Senior Security Trustee ceases to be the Senior Security Trustee in accordance with the definition of “Senior Security Trustee” in Section 1.01, all certificates, instruments or other documents being held by such Senior Security Trustee at such time shall, within five (5) Business Days from the date on which it ceases to be the Senior Security Trustee, be delivered to the Security Trustee which shall at such time be the Senior Security Trustee.
     (h) Subject to Section 2.13 of the Credit Agreement, upon the occurrence of the Loan Restructuring Date, all pledges, assignments, security interests and other Liens granted by ILFC under this Agreement shall terminate, all rights of ILFC with respect to the Collateral shall revert to ILFC and ILFC shall have no further obligations under this Agreement (except pursuant to the guaranty contemplated by Section 2.13 of the Credit Agreement). Upon any such termination, each Security Trustee will, at the expense of ILFC execute and deliver to it such documents as ILFC shall prepare and reasonably request to evidence such termination. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall this Section 9.06(h) release any Grantor (other than ILFC) from its respective pledge, assignment and security interest granted by such Grantor (other than ILFC) under this Agreement and the rights of each of the Secured Parties in respect of each of such Grantors (other than ILFC) and the related Collateral shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed.
     (i) Subject to Section 2.14 of the Credit Agreement, upon the occurrence of an Initial Intermediate Lessee Release Date, all pledges, assignments, security interests and other Liens granted by the applicable Initial Intermediate Lessee under this Agreement shall terminate, all rights of such Initial Intermediate Lessee with respect to the Collateral shall revert to such Initial Intermediate Lessee, as the case may be, and such Initial Intermediate Lessee shall have no further obligations under this Agreement. Upon any such termination, each Security Trustee will, at the expense of such Initial Intermediate Lessee, execute and deliver to it such documents as such Initial Intermediate Lessee shall prepare and reasonably request to evidence such termination. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall this Section 9.06(i) release any Grantor (other than such Initial Intermediate Lessee) from its respective pledge, assignment and security interest granted by such Grantor (other than such Initial Intermediate Lessee) under this Agreement and the rights of each of the Secured Parties in respect of each of such Grantors (other than such Initial Intermediate Lessee) and the related Collateral shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed.
     (j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, on the Required Perfection Date, all Supplemental Pool Aircraft shall cease to be Pool Aircraft hereunder and under any other Transaction Document; provided that Supplemental Pool Aircraft shall not cease to be Pool Aircraft to the extent that, as of the Required Perfection Date, either before or after giving pro forma effect to the cessation of such Supplemental Pool Aircraft as Pool Aircraft hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents, an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Once the Supplemental Pool Aircraft cease to be Pool Aircraft hereunder, each Security Trustee’s security interest in, and Lien on, the Supplemental Pool Aircraft (and any other Aircraft Assets directly related to the Supplemental Pool Aircraft) shall be automatically released. The Security Trustees shall promptly execute and deliver to the Parent Borrower, at the Parent Borrower’s expense, all documents that the Parent Borrower shall reasonably request to

49


 

evidence their release of the security interests in, and Liens on, the Supplemental Pool Aircraft (and any other Aircraft Assets directly related to the Supplemental Pool Aircraft).
     Section 9.07 Currency Conversion. If any amount is received or recovered by any Security Trustee in a currency (the “Received Currency”) other than the currency in which such amount was expressed to be payable (the “Agreed Currency”), then the amount in the Received Currency actually received or recovered by such Security Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, shall only constitute a discharge of the relevant Grantor to the extent of the amount of the Agreed Currency which such Security Trustee was or would have been able in accordance with its or his normal procedures to purchase on the date of actual receipt or recovery (or, if that is not practicable, on the next date on which it is so practicable), and, if the amount of the Agreed Currency which such Security Trustee is or would have been so able to purchase is less than the amount of the Agreed Currency which was originally payable by the relevant Grantor, such Grantor shall pay to such Security Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties such amount as it shall determine to be necessary to indemnify such Security Trustee and the Secured Parties against any loss sustained by it as a result (including the cost of making any such purchase and any premiums, commissions or other charges paid or incurred in connection therewith) and so that, to the extent permitted by law, (i) such indemnity shall constitute a separate and independent obligation of each Grantor distinct from its obligation to discharge the amount which was originally payable by such Grantor and (ii) shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action and apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by such Security Trustee and continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment, order, claim or proof for a liquidated amount in respect of the amount originally payable by any Grantor or any judgment or order and no proof or evidence of any actual loss shall be required.
     Section 9.08 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
     Section 9.09 Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) To the extent permitted by applicable law, each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York County, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any Lender Party or the FRBNY may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents against any Borrower Party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.
     (b) Each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the

50


 

laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in any New York State or federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
     (c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.02. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
     Section 9.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement (i) will become effective when the Lender shall received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto and (ii) thereafter will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy will be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
     Section 9.11 Table of Contents, Headings, Etc. The Table of Contents and headings of the Articles and Sections of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part hereof and shall in no way modify or restrict any of the terms and provisions hereof.
     Section 9.12 Non-Invasive Provisions. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Transaction Documents, each Security Trustee agrees that, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, not to take any action or cause to be taken any action, or permit any person claiming by, through or on behalf of it to take any action or cause any action, that would interfere with the possession, use, operation and quiet enjoyment of and other rights with respect to any Pool Aircraft or Collateral related thereto and all rents, revenues, profits and income therefrom, including, the right to enforce manufacturers’ warranties, the right to apply or obtain insurance proceeds for damage to the Pool Aircraft to the repair of the Pool Aircraft and the right to engage in pooling, leasing and similar actions, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
     (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Transaction Documents, each Security Trustee agrees that, so long as no “Event of Default” (or similar term) under a Lease (as defined in such Lease) shall have occurred and be continuing, not to take any action or cause to be taken any action, or permit any person claiming by, through or on behalf of it to take any action or cause any action, that would interfere with the possession, use, operation and quiet enjoyment of and other rights of the Lessee with respect to any Pool Aircraft or Collateral related thereto and all rents, revenues, profits and income therefrom, including, the right to enforce manufacturers’ warranties, the right to apply or obtain insurance proceeds for damage to the Pool

51


 

Aircraft to the repair of the Pool Aircraft and the right to engage in pooling, leasing and similar actions, in each case in accordance with the terms of such Lease.
     (c) Each Security Trustee agrees to release any Lien the Security Trustee may have upon any engine upon (i) a Grantor providing the Security Trustee with written notice of a transfer thereof promptly after receipt of a notice thereof from the relevant Lessee and with a copy of the bill of sale or other instrument evidencing the transfer of title of such replacement engine to a Grantor, (ii) in the case of the transfer of title to an engine initiated by a Grantor, the Grantor providing the Security Trustee with a certificate of such transfer and a copy of the bill of sale or other instrument evidencing the transfer of title of a replacement engine to a Grantor, or (iii) upon the total loss payment or Loan repayment being received (or replacement aircraft being provided) in a case where the airframe, but not such engine, was the subject of a total loss; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, no Security Trustee shall release any Lien upon an engine that is not replaced by a Grantor or a Lessee, unless such engine is associated with an aircraft that was subject to a total loss or otherwise removed from the Designated Pool. Such Borrower shall at the request of the Security Trustee execute a supplement to the Mortgage to evidence that any such replacement engine has become subject to the Lien of the Mortgage and the Security Trustee shall, at the request of such Borrower, execute a supplement to the Mortgage to evidence the release of the applicable engine from the Lien of the Security Trustee.
     (d) The Lender and each Security Trustee agrees that it will not claim, and upon the request of any Borrower each Security Trustee will confirm in writing that it does not claim, any right, title or interest in any engine or part (including any audio visual, telephonic, entertainment or similar equipment) that is installed on a Pool Aircraft which does not constitute an “engine” or “part” as defined in the applicable Lease.
     (e) For the avoidance of doubt, each Security Trustee agrees that a Borrower or Intermediate Lessee may from time to time lease out an engine that is part of a Pool Aircraft or lease in an engine that is not part of a Pool Aircraft as it determines in accordance with Leasing Company Practice.
     (f) Each Security Trustee agrees to, and is hereby directed by the Required Persons to, notwithstanding the occurrence or existence of an Event of Default and/or the delivery of a Notice of Exclusive Control (as defined in the Controls Agreements), take such action as may be reasonably requested by ILFC to release funds held in the Collection Accounts to the extent of any obligation of the applicable lessor to repay any Security Deposit to a lessee and/or reimburse a lessee in respect of Maintenance Rent in accordance with the terms of any Lease.
     Section 9.13 Limited Recourse. (a) In the event that the direct or indirect assets of the Grantors are insufficient, after payment of all other claims, if any, ranking in priority to the claims of the Security Trustee or any Secured Party hereunder, to pay in full such claims of the Security Trustee or such Secured Party (as the case may be), then the Security Trustee or the Secured Party shall have no further claim against the Grantors in respect of any such unpaid amounts.

52


 

     (b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no recourse under any obligation, covenant or agreement of any party contained in this Agreement shall be had against any shareholder (not including any Grantor as a shareholder of any other Grantor hereunder), officer or director of the relevant party as such, by the enforcement of any assessment or by any proceeding, by virtue of any statute or otherwise; it being expressly agreed and understood that this Agreement is a corporate obligation of the relevant party and no personal liability shall attach to or be incurred by the shareholders (not including any Grantor as a shareholder of any other Grantor hereunder), officers or directors of the relevant party as such, or any of them under or by reason of any of the obligations, covenants or agreements of such relevant party contained in this Agreement, or implied therefrom, and that any and all personal liability for breaches by such party of any of such obligations, covenants or agreements, either at law or by statute or constitution, of every such shareholder (not including any Grantor as a shareholder of any other Grantor hereunder), officer or director is hereby expressly waived by the other parties as a condition of and consideration for the execution of this Agreement.
     (c) The guarantees, obligations, liabilities and undertakings granted by the French Initial Intermediate Lessee under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall, for each relevant financial year, be, in any and all cases, strictly limited to 90% of the annual net margin generated by the French Initial Intermediate Lessee in connection with back-to-back leasing activities between it and the Parent Borrower with respect to the lease of Pool Aircraft

SCHEDULE V
AIRCRAFT MORTGAGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
INSURANCE
1.   Obligation to Insure
 
    So long as this Agreement shall remain in effect, the Grantors will ensure that there is effected and maintained appropriate insurances in respect of each Pool Aircraft and the Security Trustees, the FRBNY and the Lender and its operation including insurance for:
  (a)   loss or damage to each Pool Aircraft and each part thereof; and
 
  (b)   any liability for injury to or death of persons and damage to or the destruction of public or private property arising out of or in connection with the operation, storage, maintenance or use of (in each case to the extent available) the Pool Aircraft and of any other part thereof not belonging to the Grantors but from time to time installed on the airframe.
2.   Specific Insurances
 
    The Grantors will maintain or will cause to be maintained the following specific insurances with respect to each Pool Aircraft (subject to paragraph 3):
  (a)   All Risks Hull Insurance — All risks hull insurance policy on the Pool Aircraft in an amount at least equal to 110% of the outstanding principal of the Loan allocable to such Pool Aircraft, calculated based on the most recent appraised value (the “Required Insured Value”) on an agreed value basis and naming the Senior Security Trustee (for and on behalf of itself and the Senior Secured Parties) as a loss payee for the Required Insured Value (provided, however, that, if the applicable Lessee’s insurance program uses AVN67B or a successor London market endorsement similar thereto, the Grantor shall use reasonable commercial efforts to procure that each of the Secured Parties is also named as a “Contract Party” and shall ensure that each of the Secured Parties is also named as a “Contract Party” in respect of any new Lease entered into);
 
  (b)   Hull War Risk Insurance — Hull war risk and allied perils insurance, including hijacking, (excluding, however, confiscation by government of registry or country of domicile to the extent coverage of such risk is not generally available to the applicable Lessee in the relevant insurance market at a commercially reasonable cost or is not customarily obtained by operators in such jurisdiction at such time) on the Pool Aircraft where the custom in the industry is to carry war risk for aircraft operating on routes or kept in locations similar to the Pool Aircraft in an amount not less than the Required Insured Value on an agreed value basis and naming the Senior Security Trustee (for and on behalf of itself and the other Senior Secured Parties) as a loss payee for the Required Insured Value (provided, however, that, if the applicable

 


 

      Lessee’s insurance program uses AVN67B or a successor London market endorsement similar thereto, the Grantors shall use reasonable commercial efforts to procure that each of the Secured Parties is also named as a “Contract Party” and shall ensure that each of the Secured Parties is also named as a “Contract Party” in respect of any new Lease entered into);
 
  (c)   Legal Liability Insurance — Third party legal liability insurance (including war and allied perils) for a combined single limit (bodily injured and property damage) of not less than $500,000,000 for a Narrowbody Aircraft, and not less than $750,000,000 for Widebody Aircraft. The Security Trustees (on behalf of themselves and the Secured Parties) shall be named as additional insureds on such policies; provided, however, that the Grantors shall use reasonable commercial efforts to procure that each of the Secured Parties is also named as an additional insured and shall ensure that each of the Secured Parties is also named as an additional insured in respect of any new Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the legal liability coverage amounts in respect of the Supplemental Pool Aircraft shall not be required to be maintained in amounts set forth above if the minimum amounts provided to be maintained under the Leases thereof on the Effective Date are less, but shall instead be required to be maintained at such lesser minimum amounts.
 
  (d)   Aircraft Spares Insurance — Insurance for the engines and the parts while not installed on the airframe for their replacement cost or an agreed value basis.
3.   Variations on Specific Insurance Requirements
 
    In certain circumstances, it is customary that not all of the insurances described in paragraph 2 be carried for the Pool Aircraft. For example, when a Pool Aircraft is not on lease to a passenger air carrier or is in storage or is being repaired or maintained, ferry or ground rather than passenger flight coverage for the Pool Aircraft are applicable. Similarly, indemnities may be provided by a Governmental Authority in lieu of particular insurances; provided, however, that the Grantors shall not, without the prior written consent of AIG Funding and the FRBNY, be entitled to accept any new such governmental indemnities other than when such indemnities are granted by a Governmental Authority of a country or jurisdiction that is not a Prohibited Country. The relevant Grantor will determine the necessary coverage for the Pool Aircraft in such situations consistent with Leasing Company Practice with respect to similar aircraft.
 
4.   Hull Insurances in Excess of Required Insurance Value
 
    For the avoidance of doubt, any Grantor and/or any Lessee may carry hull risks and hull war and allied perils insurance on the Pool Aircraft in excess of the Required Insured Value which (subject in the case of the Grantors to no Event of Default having occurred and being continuing) will not be payable to the Security Trustees. Such excess insurances will be payable to (i) if payable to the Grantors, to the relevant Grantor, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing in which case the excess shall be payable to the Senior Security Trustee or (ii) if payable to the Lessee to the Lessee in all circumstances.

2


 

5.   Currency
 
    All insurance and reinsurances effected pursuant to this Schedule V shall be payable in Dollars, save that in the case of the insurances referred to in paragraph 2(c) (if such denomination is (a) required by the law of the state of registration of the Pool Aircraft; or (b) the normal practice of airlines in the relevant country that operate aircraft leased from lessors located outside such country; or (c) otherwise agreed by the Senior Security Trustee) or paragraph 2(d).
 
6.   Specific Terms of Insurances
 
    Insurance policies which are underwritten in the London and/or other non-US insurance market and which pertain to financed or leased aircraft equipment contain the coverage and endorsements described in AVN67B as it may be amended or revised or its equivalent. Each of the Grantors agrees that, so long as this Agreement shall remain in effect, the Pool Aircraft will be insured and the applicable insurance policies endorsed either (i) in a manner consistent with AVN67B, as it may be amended or revised or its equivalent or (ii) as may then be customary in the airline industry for aircraft of the same type as the Pool Aircraft utilised by operators in the same country and whose operational network for such Pool Aircraft and credit status is similar to the type of business as the Lessee (if any) and at the time commonly available in the insurance market. In all cases, the relevant Grantor will set the standards, review and manage the insurances on the Pool Aircraft consistent with Leasing Company Practice with respect to similar aircraft.
 
7.   Insurance Brokers and Insurers
 
    In reviewing and accepting the insurance brokers (if any) and reinsurance brokers (if any) and insurers and reinsurers (if any) providing coverage with respect to the Pool Aircraft, the relevant Grantor will utilize standards consistent with Leasing Company Practice with respect to similar aircraft. It is recognized that airlines in certain countries are required to utilize brokers (and sometimes even no brokers) or carry insurance with local insurance brokers and insurers. If at any time any Pool Aircraft is not subject to a Lease, the relevant Grantor will cause its insurance brokers to provide each of the Security Trustees with evidence that the insurances described in this Schedule V are in full force and effect.
 
8.   Deductible Amounts, Self-Insurance and Reinsurance
 
    With respect to the type of aircraft concerned, the nationality and creditworthiness of the airline operator, the airline operator’s use and operation thereof and to the scope of and the amount covered by the insurances carried by the Lessee, the relevant Grantor will apply standards consistent with Leasing Company Practice with respect to similar aircraft in reviewing and accepting the amount of any insurance deductibles, whether the Lessee may self-insure any of the risks covered by the insurances and the scope and terms of reinsurance, if any, including a cut-through and assignment clause.
 
9.   Renewals

3


 

    The Grantors will monitor the insurances on the Pool Aircraft and their expiration dates. The relevant Grantor shall, when requested by any Security Trustee, promptly inform such Security Trustee as to whether or not it has been advised that renewal instructions for any of the insurances have been given by the airline operator or its broker prior to or on the scheduled expiry date of the relevant insurance. The relevant Grantor shall promptly notify each of the Security Trustees in writing if it receives notice that any of the insurances have in fact expired without renewal. Promptly after receipt, the relevant Grantor will provide to each of the Security Trustees evidence of renewal of the insurances and reinsurance (if any).
 
10.   Information
 
    Subject to applicable confidentiality restrictions, each of the Grantors shall provide the Security Trustees or shall ensure that the Security Trustees are provided with any information reasonably requested by them from time to time concerning the insurances maintained with respect to the Pool Aircraft or, if reasonably available to the Grantors, in connection with any claim being made or proposed to be made thereunder.

      Borrower, Irish Borrower, Holdings, the additional guarantors party thereto in favor of the FRBNY;
 
  (i)   Third Lien Borrower Party Guarantee (the “Third Lien Guarantee”) dated as of October 13, 2009 among the Company, ILFC Labuan, ILFC France, ILFC Ireland, US Borrower, Irish Borrower, Holdings, the additional guarantors party thereto in favor of the FRBNY;

  (k)   Share Certificate of US Borrower dated as of September 18, 2009 (the “US Borrower Share Certificate”) delivered at the Closing ((g) and (h) collectively, the “Pledged Shares”).
Each of Holdings, US Borrower and the Company is referred to herein as a “US Obligor”. ILFC France, ILFC Ireland, ILFC Labuan and Irish Borrower and each US Obligor is referred to herein as an “Obligor”. Each of the Credit Agreement, the Note, the Restated Credit Agreement, the Restated Note, the Security Agreement, the ILFC Deposit Account Control Agreement, the ILFC Labuan Deposit Account Control Agreement, the First Lien Guarantee and the Third Lien Guarantee, is referred to herein as a “Transaction Document”. Each of the Security Agreement and the Deposit Account Agreement is referred to herein as a “Security Document”.
We have also examined and relied upon such records and statements and certificates of public officials and representatives and officers of the Obligors and other persons as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below. As to factual matters relevant to our opinions expressed below, we have, without independent investigation, relied upon the foregoing and the representations and warranties made in or pursuant to the Transaction Documents. We have not reviewed the dockets or other records of any court, arbitrator or governmental or regulatory body or agency or conducted any other investigation or inquiry or otherwise established or verified any factual matter.
In such examination, we have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with the originals of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies.
Except as expressly opined on by us below, we have assumed, without investigation: (i) the due organization, valid existence and, to the extent applicable, good standing of each party to the Transaction Documents; (ii) that each party to the Transaction Documents has requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents to which it is a party; (iii) that each Transaction Document has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each party thereto; (iv) that each Transaction Document constitutes a valid, binding and enforceable obligation of each party thereto; (v) that the execution, delivery and performance by each party of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party do not contravene such party’s constitutional documents, violate any law, rule or regulation applicable to such party or result in any conflict with or breach of any agreement or instrument to which such party is a party or by

 


 

which such party is bound; (vi) that each party to the Transaction Documents has obtained or made all consents, approvals, authorizations, filings, registrations, qualifications or recordations with each Governmental Authority required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents; (vii) for purpose of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York (the “NYUCC”) Irish Borrower, ILFC Ireland, ILFC Labuan and ILFC France are deemed located in Washington D.C.; (viii) all applicable filings, registrations, recordations or other actions necessary to perfect as to ownership or security interest (except as set forth herein) including under the Cape Town Convention have been made; and (ix) the accuracy and completeness as of the date hereof of the certificates and other information and statements delivered or made to us by representatives and officers of each Obligor.
We have made no investigation or review of any matters relating to the Obligors or any other person or entity other than as expressly described herein. Further, we have made no special investigation of the business operations of the Obligors or any other person or entity for the purpose of identifying laws or regulations to which the Obligors or any other person or entity are subject. With reference particularly to our opinion in paragraph 3 below, we note that our representation of the Obligors is limited to this and similar transactions and that we are not generally familiar with their respective affairs or operations.
We have also assumed that:
(i)   all applicable chattel paper (as such term is defined in Article 9 of the NYUCC) constitutes “tangible chattel paper” within the meaning of Section 9-102 of the NYUCC and is located only in the State of Utah, and any “certificated securities” (as such term is defined in Article 9 of the NYUCC) constituting Collateral under any Security Document, including each certificate for the Shares, together with transfer instruments executed in blank with respect thereto, are located only in the State of New York and, in each case, are in the possession of the Security Trustee;
 
(ii)   the Collateral subject to the Lien of such of the Security Documents exists, and each applicable Obligor has rights in the applicable Collateral and has the power to transfer its respective rights in the applicable Collateral;
 
(iii)   the descriptions of the Collateral contained in, or attached as schedules to, the applicable Security Documents sufficiently describe the Collateral intended to be covered by such Security Documents;
 
(iv)   the Collateral does not include any “cooperative interest” or “commercial tort claim” (as such terms are defined in Article 9 of the NYUCC); and
 
(vi)   except for the Cape Town Convention and the FAA Act, for purposes of Article 9 of the NY UCC, no statute, regulation or treaty of the United States is applicable to any of the Collateral.
Based upon the foregoing and subject to the qualifications and limitations set forth below, we are of the opinion that:

 


 

     1. Each Transaction Document is a valid and binding obligation of each Obligor party thereto, enforceable against such Obligor in accordance with its terms.
     2. The execution and delivery by each Obligor of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party does not, and the performance by each Obligor of its obligations thereunder will not, cause such Obligor to violate any Generally Applicable Law (defined below).
     3. No consent, approval or authorization of, and no filing, registration, qualification or recordation with, United States federal or State of New York governmental authorities pursuant to any Generally Applicable Law is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by any Obligor of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, other than (a) those that are specified in the Transaction Documents, (b) filings necessary to create, record, perfect or maintain the security interests created by the Security Documents, (c) those that have been duly obtained, taken or made and (d) in the case of Collateral constituting securities, as may be required in connection with any disposition of such Collateral.
     4. Each Security Document is effective to create in favor of the Security Trustee a valid security interest in all right, title and interest of each Obligor in the Collateral (as defined therein) to secure the Secured Obligations, in each case to the extent a security interest may be created under Article 9 of the NYUCC.
     5. Each Uniform Commercial Code financing statement a copy of which is attached hereto (“Financing Statement”) is in the form required by the Uniform Commercial Code of the jurisdiction named therein.
     6. Upon the filing of each Financing Statement in the filing office named therein, the registration on the International Registry of all applicable International Interests with respect to the Collateral described therein, and the filing for recordation of the FAA Aircraft Mortgage and Security Agreements with respect to all Aircraft registered with the FAA, the Security Trustee will have a perfected security interest in the Collateral, to the extent the perfection of a security interest may be effected under the NYUCC, the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of California (the “CALUCC”) and the Uniform Commercial Code of the District of Columbia (the “DCUCC”) by the filing of a financing statement; provided, however, that under statutes, regulations and treaties of the United States the recordation of the FAA Aircraft Mortgage and Security Agreements with the FAA, and the registration on the International Registry of the applicable International Interests, are required to perfect a security interest in Aircraft, Engines and Parts as provided in the FAA Act and Aircraft Objects as provided in the Cape Town Convention.
     7. Upon delivery to the Security Trustee in the State of New York of a security certificate in registered form representing the Pledged Shares or a portion thereof together with endorsement of such security certificate to the Security Trustee or in blank by an effective endorsement, the Security Trustee will have a perfected security interest in such Collateral (or portion thereof) for so long as such security certificate is held by the Security Trustee in the State of New York.
     8. Upon execution and delivery of the ILFC Deposit Account Control Agreement and of the Labuan Deposit Account Control Agreement, the Security Trustee will have a perfected security interest

 


 

in each deposit account identified in the ILFC Deposit Account Control Agreement and the Labuan Deposit Account Control Agreement.
As used herein, “Generally Applicable Law” means any law otherwise included within the scope of this opinion that a New York lawyer exercising customary professional diligence would reasonably be expected to recognize as being currently applicable to the Obligors, the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, including the grants of the security interests, excluding securities laws and any law that is applicable to the Obligors, the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, including the grants of the security interests, solely because of the specific assets or business of any party to any of the Transaction Documents or any of its affiliates. In particular, but without limitation, we express no opinion upon the application or effect of (i) any customs, international trade or other laws relating to the possession, import, export, use, operation, maintenance, repair or replacement of or the nature of any equipment, or any interest therein; (ii) federal or state antitrust and unfair competition, environmental, intellectual property, pension and employee benefit, or securities (including “blue sky”) laws; (iii) federal or state laws relating to aviation, banking, communications, customs, insurance, international trade, public utilities or taxation; (iv) federal and state laws and policies relating to (A) national and local emergencies and (B) deference to acts of sovereign states, including court orders; (v) federal or state criminal and civil forfeiture laws; (vi) other federal and state statutes of general application to the extent they provide for criminal prosecution (e.g., mail fraud and wire fraud statutes); and (vii) the laws of any counties, cities, towns, municipalities and special political subdivisions or agencies thereof; and in the case of each of the foregoing, all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or administrative or judicial decisions with respect thereto.
Our opinions set forth above are subject to the following qualifications and limitations:
     (a) Our opinion set forth in paragraph 1 above is subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).
     (b) We express no opinion on the effect of the Cape Town Convention on any issue covered in this opinion letter except as expressly provided in paragraph 6 above.
     (c) We express no opinion as to any provision of a Transaction Document that provides the terms thereof may not be waived or modified except in writing, which may be limited under certain circumstances.
     (d) We express no opinion as to any provision in a Transaction Document asserting that the partial invalidity of one or more provisions thereof shall not invalidate the remaining provisions thereof.
     (e) We express no opinion with respect to any indemnification or reimbursement obligation or limitation on liability contained in a Transaction Document, insofar as such

 


 

provision provides exculpation or exemption from, or requires indemnification or reimbursement of a party for, its own action or inaction, where such action or inaction involves such party’s gross negligence, recklessness or wilful or unlawful misconduct or to the extent any such provision is contrary to public policy.
     (f) Certain of the remedial provisions of a Security Document may be further limited or rendered unenforceable by applicable law, but in our opinion such law does not make the remedies afforded by such Security Document inadequate for the practical realization of the principal benefits intended to be provided thereby.
     (g) United States federal court jurisdiction is limited by Section 28 U.S.C. § 1332 where diversity of citizenship is lacking and, even where diversity exists, federal courts retain the power to transfer an action from one federal court to another under 28 U.S.C. § 1404(a) or to dismiss by reason of the doctrine of forum non conveniens.
     (h) We express no opinion as to title to any property or whether a United States federal court or state court outside of the State of New York would give effect to the choice of New York law provided for in a Transaction Document. Our opinion as to the legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability of the governing law provisions of each Transaction Document is based solely on Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law. Our opinion as to the legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability of the provisions of each Transaction Document in respect of the submission to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York is based solely on Section 5-1402 of the New York General Obligations Law.
     (i) We express no opinion, except as expressly set forth herein, as to the creation, perfection or priority of any lien, pledge or security interest.
     (j) We express no opinion as to Section 9.07 of the Security Agreement insofar as such Sections relate to indemnities against loss in converting from amounts denominated or paid in one currency into a second currency. We note that, generally, all judgments and decrees rendered by a federal or state court sitting in the State of New York are denominated in U.S. Dollars; under the laws of the State of New York, however, where a cause of action is based on an obligation denominated in another currency, any judgments or decrees must be rendered or entered in such currency and be converted into U.S. Dollars at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of entry of the judgment or decree.
     (k) We express no opinion as to any provision of a Transaction Document that purports to (i) grant rights of set-off to any person not a party thereto or (ii) permit set-off to be made without notice.
     (l) We express no opinion as to any provision of any Transaction Documents that purports to waive or exclude the rights of any person to commence any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or similar proceeding or purports to waive notice of acceleration.
     (m) We express no opinion as to the effect of (i) the compliance or non-compliance of any Obligor, the Security Trustee or any other person or entity with any state or federal laws or regulations applicable to such party because of its legal or regulatory status or the nature of its

 


 

business or (ii) the failure of any person or entity to be duly authorized to conduct business in any jurisdiction.
     (n) We also express no opinion as to the applicability to, or effect on, the obligations of any Opinion Party under any Transaction Document of Section 547 or 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Sections 101 et seq. (as amended from time to time, the “Bankruptcy Code”) or Article 10 of the New York Debtor and Creditor Law or any other New York or Federal law relating to preferences or fraudulent transfers and obligations.
     (o) We call to your attention that a security interest of the Security Trustee in any Collateral constituting “payment intangibles”, “general intangibles” or “accounts” (as such terms are defined in Article 9 of the NYUCC) may be subject to the rights, claims and defenses of account debtors and the terms of agreements with account debtors. In the case of any Collateral which is itself secured by other property, we express no opinion with respect to the Security Trustee’s rights in and to such underlying property.
     (p) Our opinion set forth in paragraph 4 above is subject to the further qualification that: (i) in the case of proceeds, the Security Trustee’s security interest is limited as provided in Sections 9-315 and 9-322 of the NYUCC; and (ii) Section 552 of the Bankruptcy Code limits (subject to the exceptions set forth therein) the extent to which property acquired by a debtor after the commencement of a case under the Bankruptcy Code may be subject to a security interest arising from a security agreement entered into by the debtor before the commencement of such case.
     (q) In rendering our opinion set forth in paragraph 4 above, we have assumed that value has been given to each Obligor party to a Security Document.
     (r) In rendering our opinion set forth in paragraph 6 above, we have assumed that the place of business or chief executive office, as applicable, for each of ILFC Ireland, ILFC Labuan, ILFC France and the Irish Borrower, is not located in a jurisdiction whose law generally requires information concerning the existence of a nonpossessory security interest to be made generally available in a filing, recording or registration system as a condition or result of the security interest’s obtaining priority over the rights of a lien creditor with respect to the collateral.
     (s) In the case of Collateral in which the security interest of the Security Trustee has been perfected by the filing of a Financing Statement, Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code requires the filing of continuation statements within the period of six months prior to the expiration of five years from the date of the original filings in order to maintain the effectiveness of such filings.
     (t) The perfection of the Security Trustee’s security interest will be terminated as to any Collateral acquired by a US Obligor more than four months after such US Obligor so changes its name as to make the Financing Statement filed in respect of such US Obligor seriously misleading, unless an amendment to such Financing Statement indicating the new name of the relevant entity is properly filed before the expiration of such four months.

 


 

     (u) If any US Obligor changes its jurisdiction of organization to a new jurisdiction, the Security Trustee’s security interest in certain of the Collateral will terminate four months after such change (or, if earlier, when perfection would have ceased under the law of the former jurisdiction), unless such security interest is perfected in such new jurisdiction before termination.
The opinions expressed herein are limited to the federal laws of the United States, the laws of the State of New York and, insofar as may be relevant to our opinions expressed herein in paragraphs 5 and 6, the CALUCC and the DCUCC. We are members of the bar of the State of New York and our opinions relating to the CALUCC or the DCUCC are based solely on our review of statutory compilations of such laws appearing in recognized reporting services.
The opinions set forth herein are rendered as of the date hereof and we disclaim any undertaking to update this letter or otherwise advise you as to any changes of law or fact that may hereafter be brought to our attention.
This opinion is rendered solely for your benefit in connection with the Credit Agreement and may not be relied upon for any other purpose, or relied upon by any other person or entity without our prior written consent in each instance.

    ILFC Ireland Limited and Shrewsbury Aircraft Leasing Limited are together called the Companies and each a Company.
 
    The Certificates listed at 1.2 and 1.3 above and attached hereto at Schedule 3 are together called the Certificates and each a Certificate. The documents listed in Part 1 of the Schedule 2 are herein together called the New York Law Agreements. The documents listed in Part 2 of the Schedule 2 are herein together called the Irish Law Agreements.
 
    Terms defined in the Credit Agreement have the same meaning in this opinion letter.
2.   For the purpose of giving this opinion we have assumed:
  2.1.   the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the completeness and conformity to the originals of all copies of documents of any kind furnished to us;
 
  2.2.   that the copies produced to us of minutes of meetings and/or of resolutions are true copies and correctly record the proceedings of such meetings and/or the

 


 

      subject-matter which they purport to record and that any meetings referred to in such copies were duly convened and held and that all resolutions set out in such minutes were duly passed and are in full force and effect;
 
  2.3.   the genuineness of the signatures and seals on all original and copy documents which we have examined;
 
  2.4.   that the memorandum and articles of association of each Company attached to the Certificates are correct and up to date;
 
  2.5.   the accuracy and completeness as to factual matters of the representations, warranties and certificates of the Companies contained in the Certificates and the accuracy of all certificates provided to us by the Companies;
 
  2.6.   that there are no agreements or arrangements in existence which in any way amend or vary the terms of the Transaction as disclosed by the Agreements;
 
  2.7.   without having made any investigation that the terms of the New York Law Agreements are lawful and fully enforceable under the laws of the State of New York and any other applicable laws other than the laws of Ireland and that the New York Security Agreement (as defined in Schedule 2) creates valid and enforceable security interests in accordance with its terms under the laws of the State of New York;
 
  2.8.   without having made any investigation that Top Aircraft, Inc. is the beneficial owner free from encumbrances of all right, title and interest in and to the Charged Shares (as defined in the Irish Law Share Charge) and that it has delivered or will deliver to the First Lien Security Trustee each of the documents listed in Clause 3.5 of the Irish Law Share Charge;
 
  2.9.   that the stock transfer form prepared in connection with the Irish Law Share Charge has been validly, duly and accurately completed and executed in respect of all of the shares of the Irish Subsidiary Borrower purported to be charged pursuant to the Irish Law Share Charge;
 
  2.10.   that the shares the subject matter of the Irish Law Share Charge have been fully paid up, no calls have been, or can be, made in respect of same;
 
  2.11.   that the shares charged pursuant to the Irish Law Share Charge are wholly owned by Top Aircraft, Inc., the chargor under the Irish Law Share Charge and that the same are not now nor will be subject to any equities or any rights or interests of any other person other than the Security Trustees (or a nominee of any Security Trustee) and that same may be charged, assigned and transferred free of encumbrance;
 
  2.12.   that Top Aircraft, Inc. has duly executed the Irish Law Share Charge and has the

 


 

      necessary power and authority, and all necessary corporate and other action has been taken by Top Aircraft, Inc., to enable it to execute, deliver and perform the obligations undertaken by it under the Irish Law Share Charge, and the implementation by Top Aircraft, Inc. of the foregoing will not cause:
  2.12.1.   any limit on it or on its directors (whether imposed by the documents constituting that company or by statute or regulation) to be exceeded; or
 
  2.12.2.   any law or order to be contravened;
  2.13.   the accuracy and completeness of all information appearing on public records; and
 
  2.14.   that each of the Companies has entered into the Transaction in good faith, for its legitimate business purposes, for good consideration, and that it derives commercial benefit from the Transaction commensurate with the risks undertaken by it in the Transactions.
3.   We express no opinion as to any matters falling to be determined other than under the laws of Ireland and, without reference to provisions of other laws imported by Irish private international law, in Ireland as of the date of this letter. Subject to that qualification and to the other qualifications set out herein, we are of the opinion that:
  3.1.   each of the Companies is a company duly incorporated under the laws of Ireland and is a separate legal entity, subject to suit in its own name. Based only on searches carried out in the Irish Companies Registration Office and the Central Office of the High Court on the date hereof, each Company is validly existing under the laws of Ireland and no steps have been taken or are being taken to appoint a receiver, examiner or liquidator over it or to wind it up;
 
  3.2.   each Company has the necessary power and authority, and all necessary corporate and other action has been taken, to enable it to execute, deliver and perform the obligations undertaken by it under the Agreements to which it is party, and the implementation by each Company of the foregoing will not cause:
  3.2.1.   any limit on it or on its directors (whether imposed by the documents constituting that Company or by statute or regulation) to be exceeded; or
 
  3.2.2.   any law or order to be contravened;
  3.3.   each of the Agreements to which a Company is party has been duly executed on its behalf and the obligations on the part of the parties to the Irish Law Agreements are, in each case, valid and legally binding and are in a form capable of enforcement against the parties under the laws of Ireland in the courts of Ireland, in accordance with its terms;

 


 

  3.4.   no authorisations, approvals, licences, exemptions or consents of governmental or regulatory authorities with respect to the Agreements are required to be obtained in Ireland;
 
  3.5.   under the laws of Ireland in force at the date hereof, the claims of each Security Trustee and the FRBNY (as defined below) against a Company under the Agreements to which such Security Trustee or the FRBNY (as applicable) is a party will rank at least pari passu with the claims of all other unsecured creditors, except claims which rank at law as preferential claims in a winding up, examinership or receivership;
 
  3.6.   it is not necessary or advisable under the laws of Ireland in order to ensure the legality, validity, enforceability or priority of the obligations or rights of any party to the Agreements, or the perfection or priority of any Security Interest created under any Agreements, that any of the Agreements be filed, registered, recorded, or notarised in any public office or elsewhere or that any other instrument relating thereto be signed, delivered, filed, registered or recorded other than the requirement to:
  (i)   file particulars of the charges created pursuant to the New York Security Agreement and the Irish Law Agreements with the Irish Registrar of Companies within 21 days of their execution; and
 
  (ii)   the filing of the statutory declarations referred to at 1.2.3 and 1.3.3 above with the Irish Companies Office within 21 days of the date of granting of the financial assistance;
  3.7.   the Companies are not entitled to claim any immunity from suit, execution, attachment or other legal process in Ireland;
 
  3.8.   in any proceedings taken in Ireland for the enforcement of the New York Law Agreements, the choice of the law of the State of New York as the governing law of the contractual rights and obligations of the parties under the New York Law Agreements would be upheld by the Irish Courts;
 
  3.9.   in any proceedings taken in Ireland for the enforcement of a judgment obtained against a Company in the courts of New York (a Foreign Judgment) the Foreign Judgment should be recognised and enforced by the courts of Ireland save that to enforce such a Foreign Judgment in Ireland it would be necessary to obtain an order of the Irish courts. Such order should be granted on proper proof of the Foreign Judgment without any re-trial or examination of the merits of the case subject to the following qualifications:
  3.9.1.   that the foreign court had jurisdiction, according to the laws of Ireland;
 
  3.9.2.   that the Foreign Judgment was not obtained by fraud;

 


 

  3.9.3.   that the Foreign Judgment is not contrary to public policy or natural justice as understood in Irish law;
 
  3.9.4.   that the Foreign Judgment is final and conclusive;
 
  3.9.5.   that the Foreign Judgment is for a definite sum of money; and
 
  3.9.6.   that the procedural rules of the court giving the Foreign Judgment have been observed.
      Any such order of the Irish courts may be expressed in a currency other than euro in respect of the amount due and payable by the relevant Company but such order may be issued out of the Central Office of the Irish High Court expressed in euro by reference to the official rate of exchange prevailing on the date of issue of such order. However, in the event of a winding up of the a Company, amounts claimed by against such Company in a currency other than the euro (the Foreign Currency) would, to the extent properly payable in the winding up, be paid if not in the Foreign Currency in the euro equivalent of the amount due in the Foreign Currency converted at the rate of exchange pertaining on the date of the commencement of such winding up;
 
  3.10.   it is not necessary under the laws of Ireland (a) in order to enable any Security Trustee or the FRBNY to enforce its rights under the Agreements to which they each are a party or (b) by reason of the execution of the Agreements, that any such party should be licensed, qualified or otherwise entitled to carry on business in Ireland;
 
  3.11.   the Agreements will not be liable to any ad valorem tax or duty, registration tax, stamp duty or any similar tax or duty imposed by a competent authority of or within Ireland;
 
  3.12.   by reason only of the execution, delivery and performance of the Agreements to which it is a party by each Security Trustee and the FRBNY, no such party shall be deemed to be resident, domiciled or carrying on a trade or business in Ireland;
 
  3.13.   there is no applicable usury or interest limitation law in Ireland which would restrict the recovery of payments in accordance with the Agreements;
 
  3.14.   the Irish Subsidiary Borrower will have no obligation to deduct or withhold any amount on account of Irish tax from payments of interest made to the Lender pursuant to the provisions of either the Credit Agreement or the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement for as long as the Lender is a Lender Party as described in paragraph (a), (b), (c), (e), (f), (g), (h), (i) or (j) of the definition of “Qualifying Lender” as defined in the Credit Agreement;

 


 

  3.15.   each of the Irish Law Agreements creates a valid and binding security interest over the assets contemplated thereby in accordance with its terms under the laws of Ireland assuming that the party creating the security has absolute title, free from encumbrances and other third party rights, to such assets;
 
  3.16.   the Irish Courts will generally recognise the security interests created by the Companies pursuant to the New York Security Agreement in accordance with its terms, provided that such interests or their enforcement are not illegal or contrary to public policy as a matter of Irish law, that all Irish law formalities with regard to security interests and their enforcement have been complied with and that the party creating the security has absolute title, free from encumbrances and other third party rights, to such assets.
4.   The opinions set forth in this opinion letter are given subject to the following qualifications:
  4.1.   an order of specific performance or any other equitable remedy is a discretionary remedy and is not available when damages are considered to be an adequate remedy;
 
  4.2.   this opinion is given subject to general provisions of Irish law relating to insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganisation, receivership, moratoria, court scheme of arrangement, administration and examination, and the fraudulent preference of creditors and other Irish law generally affecting the rights of creditors;
 
  4.3.   this opinion is subject to the general laws relating to the limitation of actions in Ireland;
 
  4.4.   a determination, description, calculation, opinion or certificate of any person as to any matter provided for in the Agreements might be held by the Irish courts not to be final, conclusive or binding if it could be shown to have an unreasonable, incorrect, or arbitrary basis or not to have been made in good faith;
 
  4.5.   additional interest imposed by any clause of any Agreement might be held to constitute a penalty and the provisions of that clause imposing additional interest would thus be held to be void. The fact that such provisions are held to be void would not in itself prejudice the legality and enforceability of any other provisions of the relevant Agreement but could restrict the amount recoverable by way of interest under such Agreement;
 
  4.6.   claims may be or become subject to defences of set-off or counter-claim;
 
  4.7.   in the event of any Security Trustee seeking to dispose of the shares which are the subject of the security created pursuant to the Irish Law Share Charge, an application for a clearance from the Competition Authority pursuant to the

 


 

      Competition Acts 2002 and 2006 may have to be made;
 
  4.8.   pursuant to section 1001 of the Taxes Consolidation Act, 1997, the Security Trustees may become liable to make certain payments to the Irish Revenue Commissioners (the Revenue) by reason of having been granted a fixed charge on book debts of a Company pursuant to any of the Agreements. Such liability would be computed by reference to (i) amounts of income tax deducted by that Company from the wages of its employees and (ii) amounts of value added tax in each case owing but not paid by that Company to the Revenue (Relevant Amounts). However, the liability to pay to the Revenue amounts received by it from a Company will be limited to amounts received after that Company shall have been notified in writing by the Revenue that such Relevant Amounts are due (the Revenue Notice). Further, if the Revenue have received, within 21 days of execution, prescribed details of the charge created thereby by the relevant Agreements the liability of the Security Trustees to discharge the Relevant Amounts will be limited to the Relevant Amounts accruing after the date of the Revenue Notice;
 
  4.9.   under Section 1002 of the Taxes Consolidation Act, 1997, any debt to a person (including any deposit with a financial institution) may be attached by the Revenue Commissioners in order to discharge any liabilities of that person in respect of outstanding tax whether the liabilities are due on its own account or as an agent or trustee. This right of the Revenue Commissioners (on which there is no case law) may override the rights of the holders of security (whether fixed or floating) in relation to the debt in question. Section 1002 could be relevant to the security created by any of the Agreements;
 
  4.10.   an Irish court has power to stay an action where it is shown that there is some other forum having competent jurisdiction which is more appropriate for the trial of the action, in which the case can be tried more suitably for the interests of all the parties and the ends of justice, and where staying the action is not inconsistent with the Regulation;
 
  4.11.   there is some possibility that depending on the actual course of dealing between the parties to the Agreements, the fixed charges contained in the Agreements may not be construed as fixed charges but as floating charges and so become subject to prior claims of certain statutory preferential creditors;
 
  4.12.   the enforceability of severance clauses is at the discretion of the court and may not be enforceable in all circumstances;
 
  4.13.   a waiver of all defences to any proceedings may not be enforceable;
 
  4.14.   provisions in any of the Agreements providing for indemnification resulting from loss suffered on conversion of the amount of a claim made in a foreign currency into euro in a liquidation may not be enforceable;

 


 

  4.15.   any undertakings contained in any of the Agreements by any of the Companies in respect of stamp duty may not be held to be binding on the Companies;
 
  4.16.   an Irish court may refuse to give effect to undertakings contained in any of the Agreements that the Company will pay legal expenses and costs in respect of any action before the Irish courts;
 
  4.17.   we express no opinion as to the priority of any of the security created by the Agreements or whether the property or assets comprised in such security is owned by a Company or by Top Aircraft, Inc., or whether such property or assets is or are now or may become subject to any equities or subject to any rights or interests of any other person ranking in priority to or free of such security or whether they could be transferred to any other person free of any such security;
 
  4.18.   we express no opinion on any taxation matters other than as expressly set out in paragraph 3.11 and paragraph 3.14 or on the contractual terms of the relevant documents other than by reference to the legal character thereof;
This opinion is addressed only to the Addressees and may be relied upon only by each such Addressee for its sole benefit in connection with the Transaction and may not be relied on by any assignees of any such persons or any other person.

Capitalized words and expressions used and not otherwise defined herein shall bear the meanings attributed to them in the Credit Agreement (as defined below). We are qualified to give you this legal opinion under the laws of France.
 
2.   For the purposes of giving this opinion we have examined:

  (f)   A copy of the certified constitutional documents (statuts) of ILFC France registered with the Clerk of the Commercial Court of Paris (Greffe du Tribunal de Commerce de Paris) on June 29, 2009;
 
  (g)   An official extract of information (Extrait K-bis) concerning ILFC France and an official non-bankruptcy certificate (Certificat de non-faillite) taken from the Paris Commercial and Companies Registry respectively dated October 2, 2009, and a copy of a search carried out on October 9, 2009 in the Bulletin des Annonces Civiles et Commerciales in relation to ILFC France;
 
  (h)   The Minutes of the Decisions of the Sole Shareholder (Procès-Verbal de l’Associé Unique) of ILFC France dated October 13, 2009 authorizing the execution of the Agreements by ILFC France, approving the Security Trustee (acting on behalf of the Secured Parties), as shareholder of ILFC France, and giving powers of attorney to the persons designated in such decisions of the Sole Shareholder; and
 
  (i)   All other documents, approvals and consents of whatever nature which were, in our judgment and to our knowledge, necessary or appropriate to examine to enable us to give the opinion expressed below.
3.   For the purpose of this opinion we have assumed, without investigation or independent inquiry:
  (a)   That all the persons which are or are to become parties to the Agreements other than ILFC France, (a) are, whenever applicable, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of their respective jurisdictions of incorporation, (b) have the full power, capacity and authority to enter into, and perform their obligations under, each of the Agreements to which they are parties and (c) have taken all necessary actions, corporate or otherwise, to authorize the execution of the Agreements and the performance of their obligations thereunder;
 
  (b)   That the Agreements have been duly executed and delivered by each of the parties thereto other than ILFC France;
 
  (c)   The authenticity, completeness and genuineness of all signatures and seals on all documents referred to above, and the completeness and the conformity to original documents, of all copies submitted to us (be it under the form of photocopies, facsimile, electronic copies or otherwise) or excerpts thereof;
 
  (d)   That the Agreements constitute legal, valid and binding obligations, under the laws of New York State, of each of the parties thereto in accordance with their respective terms;
 
  (e)   That there are no provisions of the laws of any jurisdiction outside France which would be contravened by the execution or delivery of the Agreements and that, insofar as any obligation or action to be taken under the Agreements is to be performed or taken in any jurisdiction outside France, the performance of such

 


 

    obligation or the taking of such action will not be illegal by virtue of the laws of, nor contrary to the public policy of, that jurisdiction;
 
  (f)   That no winding up, liquidation, dissolution, insolvency, bankruptcy, examination, reorganization or any similar proceedings have been commenced by or in respect of any party to the Agreements other than ILFC France;
 
  (g)   That all documents referred to in paragraphs 2(a) through 2(i) above dated prior to the date of the present opinion are true, accurate and complete on and as of the date of the present opinion;
 
  (h)   That the official extract of information (Extrait K-bis) referred to in paragraph 2(g) above was complete, true and accurate in all respects as at the date it was issued, and that it remains complete, true and accurate in all respects as at the date of this opinion by reference to the facts and circumstances now existing;
 
  (i)   That all factual statements and representations and warranties made in the Agreements and in the documents referred to in paragraphs 2(f) to 2(i) above (other than those on legal matters covered in this opinion) are true and accurate as at the date of this opinion;
 
  (j)   That, where a document has been examined by us in draft form, it will be or has been executed in the form of that draft;
 
  (k)   That the documents examined by us have not been subsequently amended, superseded or rescinded;
 
  (l)   That when a document referred to in paragraphs 2(f) to 2(i) above examined by us reflects the taking of an action or a decision, such document referred to in paragraphs 2(f) to 2(i) above (x) correctly records the proceedings of the relevant meeting and/or the subject-matter which it purports to record, and the resolutions set forth in such document referred to in paragraphs 2(f) to 2(i) above have been duly passed by the relevant corporate body (including the shareholders) of the relevant company (including, as the case may be, by a properly convened meeting of duly appointed members of that body), (y) has not been amended, superseded or rescinded and (z) is in full force and effect;
 
  (m)   That the submission to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the state and federal courts of New York is valid and enforceable against each of the parties thereto under all relevant laws other than French law;
 
  (n)   That the choice of the laws of the State of New York to govern the Agreements is a valid choice under all relevant laws other than French law;
 
  (o)   The absence of fraud, bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of the ILFC France or of the other persons which are participating to the actions or decisions who are the subject matter of the Agreements or the

 


 

      documents referred to in paragraphs 2(f) to 2(i) above and on the part of the persons required to take any actions pursuant to such documents; and
 
  (p)   That the entering into the Agreements will be of commercial benefit to, and the corporate interest of, ILFC France and ILFC.
4.   Based upon the above assumptions and subject to the qualifications hereinafter set forth, we are of the opinion that under French law as now in effect and interpreted by French courts:
 
    With respect to ILFC France:
  (a)   ILFC France is a société à responsabilité limitée organized and validly existing under the laws of France;
 
  (b)   ILFC France has the power, authority and capacity to enter into and perform its obligations under each Agreement to which it is a party and has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of its obligations under each Agreement to which it is a party in accordance with its terms;
 
  (c)   The execution by ILFC France of the Agreements to which it is a party does not contravene any provision of its certified constitutional documents (statuts) or French law and regulation and the performance by ILFC France of the Agreements to which it is a party does not contravene its certified constitutional documents (statuts) or applicable French law or regulation governing the authority and capacity of ILFC France to perform such Agreements;
 
  (d)   Each Agreement to which ILFC France is a party has been duly entered into and delivered by ILFC France;
 
  (e)   Based on the document referred to in paragraph 2(f) above ILFC is the holder of all outstanding shares and is the sole shareholder of ILFC France;
 
  (f)   ILFC France is subject to private commercial law in France and is generally subject to suit, and neither it nor its properties have any immunity from the jurisdiction of any court or any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution or otherwise);
 
  (g)   Based on the non-bankruptcy certificate referred to in paragraph 2(g) above, ILFC France is not recorded as being in a state of conciliation, safeguard (sauvegarde), judicial reorganization or liquidation proceedings pursuant to Book VI of the French Commercial Code (the “Bankruptcy Law”);

 


 

    With respect to the Agreements:
  (h)   Other than the formalities referred to in paragraphs 5(x) below, no consent, license, authorization, registration, declaration or filing with approval or permit of any governmental authority, agency or instrumentality of or in France is required in connection with the validity, or the execution, delivery, performance or enforceability of each Agreement;
 
  (i)   Subject to the formalities referred to in paragraphs 5(x), it is not necessary or desirable to ensure the priority, validity and enforceability of all the obligations of the parties to the Agreements that the Agreements be filed, registered, recorded or notarized in any public office or elsewhere, that any other instrument relating thereto be signed, delivered, filed registered or recorded, that any tax or duty be paid, or that any other action whatsoever be taken in each case in France;
 
  (j)   It is not necessary to establish a place of business in France or to be licensed, qualified or entitled to do business in France in order to exercise any provisions of the Agreements, and no party (other than ILFC France) to any of the Agreements will be deemed a resident, domiciled or carrying on any commercial activity or business in France or subject to tax in France as a result of the execution, delivery and performance of any of the Agreements or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by the Agreements;
 
  (k)   None of the addressees hereof will violate any law or regulation in France by reason of entering into the Agreements, or performing its obligations thereunder;
 
  (l)   There are no registration, stamp or other taxes or duties of any kind payable in France in connection with the signature, performance or enforcement by legal proceedings of the Agreements other than French court fees in the event of enforcement proceedings;
 
  (m)   The choice of the laws of the State of New York to govern the Agreements will be upheld as a valid choice of law in and binding in any action in the courts of France, and each of such Agreements is in proper legal form for enforcement in the courts of France to the extent that such choice of law was not made by any party in fraud of and to avoid any public provision of any other law and provided further that (x) French law will be applied by the French courts insofar as it is mandatory irrespective of the governing law of the Agreements (it being specified, for the avoidance of doubt, that this exclusion would not apply to the situation described in sub-paragraph (n) below) and (y) the application of the laws of the State of New York laws may be denied by French courts if it conflicts with French international public policy (ordre public international);
 
  (n)   The submission by ILFC France to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in New York contained in the Agreements to which ILFC France is a party is valid and binding upon ILFC France. Subject to the rules governing international lis pendens under French private international law, a final

 


 

      judgment for a fixed and definite sum of money obtained after services of process in the required form and rendered by a state or federal court of competent jurisdiction sitting in New York, in respect of an action under the Agreements (a “New York Judgment”), would be capable of recognition and enforcement in France, without a review of the substantive matters thereby adjudicated, through an action for Exequatur brought before the competent French court, provided that such French court is furnished with the original and a translation into French (by a sworn translator) of the relevant Agreements and the New York Judgment and determines that the requirements developed by jurisprudence for the enforcement of foreign judgments are satisfied, in particular that:
  (i)   the court that rendered the New York Judgment had jurisdiction over the matter under both its own rules of jurisdiction and in accordance with French rules of international conflicts of jurisdiction and the French courts did not have exclusive jurisdiction to hear the matter;
 
  (ii)   the procedure followed by the court that rendered the New York Judgment does not conflict with the principles of due process applied in France or with French international public policy (ordre public international français);
 
  (iii)   the New York Judgment does not conflict with French international public policy, is not tainted with fraud and is not incompatible with an earlier judgment rendered by a French court in the same matter; and
 
  (iv)   the New York Judgment concerned is not subject to appeal, its enforcement has not been stayed and it is enforceable in the state or federal court of competent jurisdiction sitting in New York;
  (o)   Except as set forth in paragraph 5(x) below, it is not necessary under the laws of France that the Aircraft Mortgage and Security Agreement be filed, recorded or enrolled with any public office, governmental authority or court in France in order to ensure the legality, validity or enforceability thereof in France or the admissibility in evidence thereof in France.
5.   This opinion is subject to the following qualifications and observations:
  (a)   This Opinion relates to matters of law exclusively and, in particular, we have not made any independent and personal inquiry regarding the accuracy and completeness of, and do not opine on, the various representations and warranties of ILFC France under the Agreements. More generally, we express no opinion as to matters of fact, nor as to questions of law which can be decided only on the basis of matters of fact (such as whether entering into the Agreements will be of commercial benefit to, nor in the corporate interest of, the persons which are to become parties to such document) not as to the effect facts, whether known to us or not, may have on the opinions given herein;

 


 

  (b)   The documents referred to in paragraph 2(g) above are not capable of conclusively revealing whether or not:
  2.1.1.   ILFC France has been wound up (dissolution), has been declared null, has been merged or had its operations terminated (cessation d’activité), or any action in this respect has been taken,
 
  2.1.2.   a stay period (suspension des poursuites) has been decided by a court or a petition in that respect has been filed,
 
  2.1.3.   a declaration that ILFC France has ceased its payments (déclaration de cessation des paiements) has been filed, or acknowledged by the court (jugement constatant la cessation des paiements), or a petition has been filed or an order rendered for the sauvegarde, redressement judiciaire or liquidation judiciaire of ILFC France has been made, or
 
  2.1.4.   a judgment opening main insolvency proceedings with respect to ILFC France has been rendered by a court of a Member state of the European Community pursuant to the provisions of the Council Regulation (EC) n°1346/2000 on insolvency proceedings, or
 
  2.1.5.   the authorized representatives of the ILFC France have changed (including the nomination of an administrateur provisoire),
 
  (a)   as notice of these matters may not be filed immediately and, when filed, may not be entered on the record immediately;
  (c)   The official extract of information (Extrait K-bis) referred to in paragraph 2(g) above in relation to ILFC France provided by the Registre du Commerce et des Sociétés does not contain any information as to whether a composition with creditors (règlement amiable), a conciliation proceeding (procédure de conciliation) or any similar procedure is being negotiated or has been entered into, as notice of such matters is not filed with the Registre du Commerce et des Sociétés;
 
  (d)   We have assumed that the persons which are required or authorized to take any actions pursuant to the Agreements or the documents referred to in paragraphs 2(f) to 2(i), have and will, when relevant, exercise(d) their powers in good faith and reasonable manner;
 
  (e)   Any document, which is not in the French language, must be translated into French by an official sworn translator in order to be submitted as evidence in any action or proceedings before a French court or public body or used for any purpose with public bodies;
 
  (f)   A French court may stay proceedings if concurrent proceedings are being brought elsewhere;
 
  (g)   The validity and/or enforcement of the Agreements may be affected or limited by laws, regulations and proceedings relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally including applicable bankruptcy, insolvency

 


 

      arrangement or moratorium laws, regulations and proceedings. In particular, pursuant to the Bankruptcy Law, a commercial company (as such ILFC France) may become subject to conciliation, safeguard (sauvegarde), judicial reorganization or liquidation proceedings. In addition, the French courts have the discretion under the Bankruptcy Law to appoint a mandataire ad hoc in respect of a commercial company at the request of the company’s managers. A commercial company may furthermore place itself in non-judicial liquidation pursuant to a decision of its shareholders;
 
  (h)   A French court might void a guarantee or any grant of security made under any of the Agreements if such guarantee or grant of security is not in ILFC France’s corporate interest, ILFC France has not derived an actual benefit, consideration of advantage from the transaction involving the guarantee or grant of security and the amount of the guarantee or the amount secured by the grant of security is not commensurate with the financial capabilities of ILFC France or with the value of its assets;
 
  (i)   We express no opinion as to the evidentiary value of facsimile transmissions, electronic mails, photocopies or telephonic recordings before a French court;
 
  (j)   This opinion is strictly limited to the matters stated herein and is not to be interpreted or construed as extending by implication to any other matters not specifically referred to herein;
 
  (k)   Under French law :
  (i)   enforcement may be limited by the priority rights of certain creditors which arise by operation of law;
 
  (ii)   in accordance with Article 1244-1 of the French Civil Code:
  a)   a court may grant time to any debtor or reschedule payments under any agreement for a period of up to two years (which period may be extended under certain circumstances);
 
  b)   a court may, by a special order, decide that any payments should be applied to the repayment of principal or, with respect to amounts for which time has been granted or the payment of which has been rescheduled, that such amounts shall bear interest not at the contractual rate but at a lower rate which shall be not less than the official rate (taux légal); and
 
  c)   any enforcement measures which are pending will be suspended by a court order under Article 1244-1 of the French Civil Code and any additional interest or penalty for late payment will not be due for the period ordered by the court;

 


 

  (iii)   claims may become time-barred or may be or become subject to defences of set-off or counterclaim or exceptio non adimpleti contractus (exception d’inexécution) ;
 
  (iv)   a waiver of all defenses to all proceedings may not be enforceable; and
 
  (v)   enforcement may be restricted by the rules relating to “force majeure”.
  (l)   A French court might not enforce the provisions of any Agreement requiring a party thereto to indemnify other parties or third parties for court costs and legal fees;
 
  (m)   It is a principle of French law that obligations are not generally capable of being specifically enforced (except where such obligations relate to the payment of a sum of money) and French courts may issue an award of damages where specific performance cannot be ordered or an award of damages is determined adequate;
 
  (n)   French courts might not enforce a provision of an agreement on the grounds that such provision is a penalty within the meaning of Article 1152 and Article 1231 of the French Civil Code. In such event, if the court considers that any party thereto is required to pay an amount clearly excessive or underestimated as a pre-estimate of damages, the court may reduce or increase the amount of such damages;
 
  (o)   The question of whether or not any provisions of a document which may be invalid, illegal or unenforceable under any applicable law may be severed from the other provisions thereof in order to preserve the validity, lawfulness or enforceability of all or part of those other provisions will depend on whether the court holds the offending provision to be an essential condition of the document, in which case the document as a whole may be declared null and void;
 
  (p)   Any provision of any agreement stating that such agreement may only be amended or varied or any provisions thereof waived by an instrument in writing may not be effective;
 
  (q)   Any provision of a document stating that no failure or delay in exercising any right or remedies shall operate as a waiver of such rights or remedies may not be effective;
 
  (r)   There could be circumstances in which a French court would not treat as conclusive, final or binding those certificates and determinations which a document states are to be so treated;
 
  (s)   Where a debt is expressed in a foreign currency, a French court may, if so requested, grant an order in such currency. If the order is given in Euros, it would normally be given by reference to the relevant amount of foreign currency converted at the rate of exchange applicable on the effective date of payment. If a

 


 

      separate order is sought on the basis of a currency indemnity, after an order has been previously obtained, the court may hold that the currency indemnity is superseded by such previous order; furthermore, with respect to a bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, moratorium, reorganization, reconstruction or similar proceeding, French law requires that all claims or debts be converted to equivalent Euro amounts at an exchange rate determined at the date of the judgment declaring the commencement of the proceeding;
 
  (t)   A French court may consider that the French law mandatory principle according to which agreements must be performed in good faith applies to the Agreements;
 
  (u)   Generally French courts would not enforce a contractual waiver or limitation of liability in circumstances where the beneficiary of such waiver of limitation is found to have committed gross negligence (faute lourde) or willful misconduct (faute intentionnelle);
 
  (v)   We express no opinion generally in respect of any provision of any Agreement that enables a party to enforce a right, or appropriate an asset or a right granted as security without having recourse to a court;
 
  (w)   It is unclear whether a French court would give effect to an undertaking of a French debtor to gross up its payments if these were to become subject to withholding taxes;
 
  (x)   Under French private international law, any assignment of rights must be perfected (i) vis-à-vis the assigned debtor in accordance with the governing law of the relevant assigned rights, and (ii) vis-à-vis third parties in accordance with the laws of the State in which the assigned debtor is domiciled. An assignment of rights which relates either to rights arising under a contract governed by French law, or to rights against an entity domiciled in France, will therefore only be fully enforceable (opposable) in France if notified to the assigned debtor by a huissier (process server) in accordance with French procedural rules. French law does not provide for a time limit to effect such notification. Accordingly, the Aircraft Mortgage and Security Agreement shall only be fully enforceable in France once it has been notified to ILFC France, in accordance with such procedural rules; and
 
  (y)   Although certain security documents contain provisions to the effect that the rights of the secured parties shall not be diminished by actions taken or not taken by the secured parties, a French court could decline to enforce the obligations of a pledgor or a guarantor, as the case may be, on the basis of French “ordre public” provisions if the fundamental interests of the same had been impaired by such an action or omission on the part of the secured parties. In considering this issue the French courts would look principally to the question of whether the pledgor’s or the guarantor’s, as the case may be, subrogation rights against the primary obligor had been impaired as a result of the secured parties’ action or omission.

 


 

6.   We do not purport to be experts on and do not purport to be generally familiar with or qualified to express legal opinions based on any law other than the laws of France and accordingly express no legal opinion herein based upon any law other than the laws of France as of the date hereof.
 
7.   References to laws of the French Republic are to be read as references to the laws and regulations of the French Republic in full force and effect on the date hereof, as interpreted by the Cour de cassation and the Conseil d’Etat (being the supreme courts of the French judiciary and administrative court systems respectively) in their decisions reported in major legal publications thirty days prior to the date hereof.
 
8.   In this opinion, some French legal concepts are expressed in the English language and not in French. The concepts concerned may not be identical to the concepts described by the equivalent English terminology. Therefore, terms and concepts used in this opinion have the meaning which French law gives them. Where such concepts are accompanied by their translation into French, the translation prevails.
 
9.   We shall not be liable and expressly exclude in advance any liability to keep you informed of any event, action, or change of French law, subsequent to the date hereof, whether or not it may have an effect on this opinion.
 
10.   This opinion is addressed to you solely for your own benefit and that of your permitted successors and assignees and your professional advisers in connection with the transaction referred to in the heading to this letter, and, except with our prior written consent, is not to be transmitted to or discussed with or used or relied upon by any other person or used or relied upon for any other purpose.

3.   Opinion
 
    Having considered the Documents listed in paragraph 0 above, and having regard to the assumptions and the qualifications set out herein below and the relevant laws of Malaysia, we are pleased to advise that, in our opinion:
  3.1   ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee was incorporated in Labuan, Malaysia, on 28 May 2002 for an indefinite period as a limited company and is a separate legal entity duly organized and validly existing under the laws of Malaysia and is subject to suit in its own name, and to the best of our knowledge, no receiver or liquidator has been appointed over ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee, nor any winding-up order made against ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee;
 
  3.2   ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee has the necessary power and authority, and all necessary corporate actions (including approvals and consents of members) have been taken to enable ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee to sign and deliver the Loan Documents to which ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee is a party and perform the obligations undertaken by it thereunder, and implementation by ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee of the foregoing will not cause:
  3.2.1   any limit on ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee or its directors (imposed by the documents constituting ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee, or any statute or regulation) to be exceeded; or

 


 

  3.2.2   any law or order to be contravened;
  3.3   No consents, licenses, approvals or registrations (other than those listed in Paragraphs 2.11 to 2.20, which have been obtained) are necessary to be obtained from, or filed with, any governmental or other regulatory authorities in Malaysia to enable ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee:
  3.3.1   to enter into and perform the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents; and
 
  3.3.2   to make payments in United States Dollars as provided for in the Loan Documents;
      save for the registration of the security interest in the Aircraft Mortgage and Security Agreement at Section 2.01A(a) with the Malaysian Aircraft Register;
 
  3.4   It is not necessary or desirable to ensure the priority, validity and enforceability of the obligations of ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee under the Loan Documents (including the security interest, if any deposits or funds held by, or on behalf of, ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee thereunder), that the Loan Documents to which ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee is a party be filed, registered or recorded in any public office or elsewhere or that any other instrument relating thereto be signed, delivered, filed, registered or recorded, that any tax or duty be paid or that any other action whatsoever be taken (other than those listed in Paragraphs 2.11 to 2.20, which have been obtained), save for the adjudication of the Loan Documents by the Stamp Office as being exempt from stamp duty under the Stamp Duty (Exemption) Order 2000 and the registration of the security interest in the Aircraft Mortgage and Security Agreement at Section 2.01A(a) with the Malaysian Aircraft Register;
 
  3.5   On the termination of the Credit Agreement (whether on expiry or otherwise) as contemplated in the Aircraft Mortgage and Security Agreement, ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee and, on the security constituted by the Aircraft Mortgage and Security Agreement becoming enforceable, the Security Trustee would be entitled:
  3.5.1   to repossess the Aircraft;
 
  3.5.2   to deregister the Aircraft from the aircraft register in Malaysia; and
 
  3.5.3   to export the Aircraft from Malaysia;
           without requiring any further consents, approvals or licenses from any governmental or regulatory authority in Malaysia but subject to the terms of any covenant given respectively by ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee or the Security Trustee to the Lessee not to interfere with the Lessee’s quiet enjoyment of the Aircraft;
 
  3.6   The Loan Documents to which ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee is a party have been properly signed and delivered on behalf of ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee and the obligations on the part of ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee contained therein are valid and legally binding on and enforceable in accordance with their terms against ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee under the laws of Malaysia and in the courts of Malaysia;

 


 

  3.7   The obligations of ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee under the Loan Documents to which ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee is a party rank at least equally and ratably (pari passu) in point of priority and security with all other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee save and except preferential debts (a list of which appears in Annex A) in a winding up of ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee;
 
  3.8   There is no applicable usury or interest limitation law in Malaysia which may restrict the recovery of payments in accordance with the Credit Agreement;
 
  3.9   There are no stamp duties, transfer taxes or documentary taxes of any kind payable in Malaysia in connection with the signature, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents or in connection with payments made pursuant to the Loan Documents to which ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee is a party and the Loan Documents will be adjudicated by the Stamp Office as being exempt from stamp duty under the Stamp Duty (Exemption) Order 2000;
 
  3.10   The Loan Documents do not need to be notarized, legalized, apostilled or consularized as a condition to the legality, validity, filing, enforceability or admissibility in evidence thereof in Malaysia save for the Loan Documents by the Stamp Office as being exempt from stamp duty under the Stamp Duty (Exemption) Order 2000;
 
  3.11   Subject to the approvals set out in paragraph 2 being obtained, none of the addressees hereof will violate any law or regulation in Malaysia by reason of entering into the Loan Documents, or performing its obligations thereunder;
 
  3.12   It is not necessary to establish a place of business in Malaysia or to be licensed, qualified or entitled to do business in Malaysia in order to exercise or enforce any provisions of the Loan Documents and no party (other than ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee) to any of the Loan Documents will be deemed to be resident, domiciled or carrying on any commercial activity or business in Malaysia or subject to any tax in Malaysia as a result only of the execution, delivery and performance of any of the Loan Documents or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents;
 
  3.13   The choice of New York to govern the Loan Documents to which ILFC Labuan as the Intermediate Lessee is a party will be upheld as a valid choice of law in and binding in any action in the courts of Malaysia, and each of such Loan Documents is in proper legal form for enforcement in the courts of Malaysia;
 
  3.14   The consent to the jurisdiction by ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee contained in the Loan Documents to which ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee is a party is valid and binding on ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee and not subject to revocation;
 
  3.15   Neither ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee nor any of its assets is entitled to immunity on the grounds of sovereign immunity or other immunity or otherwise in any legal action or proceeding in connection with the Loan Documents to which Intermediate Lessee is a party;
 
  3.16   It is not necessary under the laws of Malaysia to obtain any consent, permission, or administrative approval from any governmental or other regulatory authorities of Malaysia for, nor under such laws is there any prohibition on, any payment to be made by

 


 

      ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee to the Security Trustee or in connection with the Aircraft or any part thereof;
 
  3.17   Any judgment obtained in the courts of New York in respect of any of the Loan Documents will be enforceable in the courts of Malaysia subject to the following:
 
      By virtue of the Reciprocal Enforcement of Judgments Act 1958 (“REJA”) of Malaysia, only a judgment obtained in a superior court of certain commonwealth countries (“reciprocating countries”) as set out in the First Schedule thereto shall, subject to the provisions of the REJA, upon registration with the courts of Malaysia within 6 years after the date of judgment, or where there have been proceedings by way of appeal against the judgment, after the date of the last judgment, have the same force and effect as if it had been a judgment originally entered or obtained, as of the date of registration, in the registering court.
 
      As the United States of America is not a reciprocating country under the REJA, a judgment obtained in any state in the United States of America is not registrable under the REJA, and hence not directly enforceable by the courts of Malaysia. A judgment obtained from a court of the State of New York, the United States of America, may however, be enforced in Malaysia by bringing a fresh action based on the judgment of such court before the Malaysian courts.
 
      As far as we are aware, courts of Malaysia having jurisdiction over ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee will, provided that the submission of ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee to the jurisdiction of the State of New York and the manner in which service of process is to be effected upon ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee are in compliance with the laws governing such submission or service of process, recognise and enforce an action based on the judgment of any federal or state court in the State of New York, United States of America. In such proceedings in Malaysia, the Malaysian courts will not re-examine the issues in dispute, subject to the Lessee raising one or more of the following defences:
  (a)   that the court in the State of New York, the United States of America, had no jurisdiction to adjudicate over the subject matter of the dispute based on the Loan Documents;
 
  (b)   that the judgment was obtained by fraud or duress;
 
  (c)   that enforcement of the judgment would be contrary to public policy;
 
  (d)   that the proceedings in which the judgment was obtained were opposed to natural justice;
 
  (e)   that the judgment was directly or indirectly for the payment of taxes or other charges of a like nature or of a fine or other penalty;
 
  (f)   that the judgment was not final and conclusive;
 
  (g)   that the judgment was wholly satisfied;
 
  (h)   that the judgment is not for a fixed sum; and

 


 

  (i)   that the judgment was either directly or indirectly intended to enforce the penal laws or sanctions imposed by the authorities of either the State of New York of the United States of America.
      In deciding whether to enforce the agreement between the parties as to the proper forum to resolve any disputes between them, the Malaysian courts will apply the principles enunciated in the case of the Fehmarn (1958) 1 All ER 333. The Malaysian courts have taken the view that where a cause of action in respect of any dispute in relation to a contract arises and is therefore properly within its jurisdiction, the court has a discretion whether or not to adjudicate upon the claim in the action even where the parties have agreed to refer such dispute to a foreign court, and that the question of jurisdiction is quite separate from the question of the proper law of the contract to be applied.
 
  3.18   The Federal Constitution of Malaysia guarantees the protection of property from expropriation without adequate compensation. The Aircraft may, however, be detained and forfeited pursuant to court proceedings in any of the following circumstances:
          1. Civil Aviation Regulations 1996
          Pursuant to Regulations 141 to 144 of the Malaysian Civil Aviation Regulations 1996 (“MCAR”), where an owner or operator of an aircraft defaults in payment to the Director-General of the DCA of any charges incurred by virtue of the MCAR, the Director-General of the DCA may enter in the Aircraft Register a lien over (a) the aircraft in respect of which the charges was incurred; and (b) any other aircraft of which the person in default is the owner or operator at the time when the detention begins. The aircraft lien vested in the Director-General of the DCA shall secure the following:
  (a)   the unpaid charges
 
  (b)   any penalty that is or becomes payable in respect of the unpaid charge; or
 
  (c)   any further outstanding amounts in respect of the aircraft.
          2. Income Tax Act 1967
          Where any income tax payable by the Lessee remains unpaid for a period exceeding 3 months, the Director-General of the Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia may with the approval of the Minister of Finance of Malaysia, direct the customs authority to refuse clearance from any airport in Malaysia to any aircraft wholly or partly owned or chartered by the Lessee until the tax is paid. Whilst the above provision does not amount to a lien, possessory right or right of detention, they may restrict the ability of the owner of the aircraft to repossess the aircraft.
          3. Customs Act 1967
          Pursuant to Section 41 of the Customs Act 1967 of Malaysia, clearance in respect of any aircraft operated by the Lessee and departing from any customs airport in Malaysia may be refused by an officer of the Customs and Excise Department of Malaysia if any provisions of the Customs Act 1967 or regulations thereunder are not complied with by the Lessee or any charges or penalties due by such aircraft or the Lessee until all duties payable in respect of any goods shipped therein have been paid or their payment secured by such deposit or written guarantee

 


 

as may be required by the customs officer. Under Section 109 of the Customs Act 1967, the customs officer also has the power to go on board any aircraft and search the aircraft. Whilst the above provisions do not amount to a lien, possessory right or right of detention, they may restrict the ability of the owner of the aircraft to repossess the aircraft.
          4. Admiralty Law
Under the Courts of Judicature Act 1968 and the UK Supreme Court Act 1981, the aircraft may be arrested for claims for pilotage, towage and salvage.
  5.   International Interests in Mobile Equipment (Aircraft) Act 2006 (Cape Town Convention)
          In the event of default as provided in the Convention, the chargee may, to the extent that the chargor has at any time so agreed and subject to any declaration that may be made by a Contracting State under the Convention, exercise any one or more of the following remedies:
  (a)   take possession or control of any object charged to it;
 
  (b)   sell or grant a lease of any such object;
 
  (c)   collect or receive any income or profits arising from the management or use of any such object.
          (Protocol)
          Further, Malaysia declared that the following liens have priority:
  (a)   liens in favour of airline employees for unpaid wages arising since the time of a declared default by that airline under a contract to finance or lease an aircraft object;
 
  (b)   liens in favour of repairers of an aircraft object in their possession to the extent of service or services performed on and value added to that aircraft object.
  3.19   The payment of foreign currency under the Loan Documents is not subject to any exchange control restrictions, provided that the approvals set out in paragraph 2 have been obtained;
 
  3.20   In any action in Malaysia against the Lessee under any of the Loan Documents to which it is a party judgment may be given in United States currency. A judgment in United States currency would, upon enforcement by the court, be converted to Ringgit Malaysia;
 
  3.21   ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee may be subject to voluntary or involuntary liquidation or scheme of arrangement or compromise or placed in receivership pursuant to the terms of the Companies Act 1965. Apart from the Companies Act 1965 as aforesaid, we do not consider that there are any other Malaysian laws which would be applicable to the Lessee in respect of the bankruptcy, protection from creditors, administration, receivership, reorganisation, scheme of arrangement or compromise or special administration of the same. If the Lessee were to be placed in

 


 

      liquidation or in receivership pursuant to the laws of Malaysia, ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee would be entitled to recover possession of the Aircraft in accordance with the terms of the Aircraft Mortgage and Security Agreement and could not be inhibited legally by any liquidator/receiver of ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee;
 
  3.22   The Loan Documents provide for the remedies that are customary under the laws of Malaysia to provide for the protection of the parties’ interests and rights against ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee and the Aircraft; and
 
  3.23   There are no liens, mortgages or charges registered over the Aircraft;
 
  3.24   The security interests created under the Aircraft Mortgage and Security Agreement namely the Aircraft Mortgages are interests registrable on the Malaysian Aircraft Register, LOFSA and the Register of Charges of ILFC Labuan; and
 
  3.25   The security interests created under the Depository Account and Account Control Agreement namely the Account Collateral are interests registrable with LOFSA and the Register of Charges of ILFC.
4.   Qualifications
 
    We do not purport to be experts on and do not purport to be generally familiar with or qualified to express legal opinions based on any law other than the laws of Malaysia as currently applied and accordingly express no legal opinion herein based upon any law other than the laws of Malaysia.
 
    To the extent that the laws of New York, the United States of America, which is expressed to be the governing law of any of the Loan Documents may be relevant, we have made no independent investigation thereof and our opinion may therefore be subject to the effect of such laws.
 
    Our opinion as to enforceability of the Loan Documents relates only to their enforceability in Malaysia in circumstances where the courts in Malaysia have and accept jurisdiction. The term “enforceability” in this opinion refers to the legal character of the obligations assumed by ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee under the Loan Documents, i.e. it is of a character which is enforceable or recognized under Malaysian laws. It does not mean or imply that the Loan Documents will be enforced in all circumstances by or against third parties or that any particular remedy will be available.
  4.1   Insolvency Laws: Enforcement of the Loan Documents may be limited by any laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, receivership, reorganisation, scheme of arrangement or compromise, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium, special administration or other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally;
 
  4.2   Statute of Limitation, Estoppel etc: A claim under any of the Loan Documents may be or become barred under laws relating to the limitation of actions, estoppel, exercise of judicial discretion or similar principles or may be or become subject to set-off or counterclaim or any possessory lien generally;
 
  4.3   General Principles of Equity: Enforcement may be limited by general principles of equity, for example, equitable remedies such as injunctions and orders for specific performance, are discretionary, will not be granted automatically, and may not be available where damages are considered to be an adequate remedy;

 


 

  4.4   Performance outside Malaysia: Where obligations are to be performed in a jurisdiction outside Malaysia, they may not be enforceable in Malaysia to the extent that performance would be illegal or contrary to public policy under the laws of that jurisdiction;
 
  4.5   Frustration: Enforcement may be limited by provisions of Malaysian laws applicable to agreements held to have been frustrated by events happening after its execution.
 
      In addition, this opinion is subject to the following qualifications:
 
  4.6   Exercise of Discretion: Where any of the parties to the Document is vested with a discretion or may determine a matter in its opinion, the courts in Malaysia may require that such discretion be exercised reasonably or that such opinion be based on reasonable grounds;
 
  4.7   Conclusive evidence clause: Any provision in any of the Loan Documents to the effect that any calculation, determination, certification, notification or opinion will be conclusive and binding, may not be enforceable if such calculations, determinations or certifications, notification or opinions are fraudulent or manifestly inaccurate and may not necessarily prevent judicial enquiry into the merits of any claim based on such calculations, determinations, certifications, notifications or opinion by an aggrieved party;
 
  4.8   Certificate of Indebtedness: Any provision in the Loan Documents in respect of tax, currency and other indemnities, which provides for ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee to indemnify the other parties thereto against all losses, claims, costs, charges and expenses incurred by any of them in relation to or arising out of the Loan Documents, such other parties are nevertheless obliged to show the amount of loss or expenses incurred or suffered by them in relation to or arising under the relevant Loan Documents if the matter were brought before the courts in Malaysia.
 
      Where there is an express provision that the guarantor under a document accepts a certificate of indebtedness signed by an authorised officer of the lender as being conclusive evidence, there is no requirement for the beneficiary of the guarantee to prove the underlying debt. However, where there is manifest error on the face of the certificate, the guarantor is not precluded from adducing evidence which casts doubt on the accuracy of the certificate. It is then for the lender to prove the quantum of debt (Chen Heng Ping & Ors v. Intradagang Merchant Bankers (M) Bhd (1995) 2 MLJ 363);
 
  4.9   Choice of Laws: The courts in Malaysia may not give effect to the choice of a foreign law as the governing law if:
  4.9.1   the choice of such law as the governing law is contrary to public policy in Malaysia; or
 
  4.9.2   the choice of such law was not made bona fide.
      In addition, where obligations are to be performed or have effect in a jurisdiction outside Malaysia, they may not be enforceable in Malaysia to the extent such performance or effect would be illegal under the laws of that jurisdiction;
 
  4.10   Concurrent Proceedings: Proceedings before a court in Malaysia may be stayed if the subject of the proceedings is currently before any other court or tribunal;

 


 

  4.11   Security for Costs: If an action is commenced in Malaysia by a foreign party, security for costs calculated by reference to the quantum of the claim may have to be furnished by that party on the application of the local party;
 
  4.12   Submission to Jurisdiction and Stay of Proceedings: The submission to the jurisdiction of a foreign court may result in an action commenced in Malaysia by the party submitting to the jurisdiction of the Malaysian courts being stayed. The courts in Malaysia, in assessing the merits of an application for a stay, will generally consider factors as to the suitability of any other forum compared with Malaysia;
 
  4.13   Legislation with Retrospective Effect: The relevant Minister may by government gazette make an order that certain legislative provisions are to have retrospective effect provided that the said legislation expressly provides that it shall have retrospective effect;
 
  4.14   Notices: Certain notices, consisting principally of notices of default and termination, will only be considered to have been properly delivered under Malaysian law if delivered via a Malaysian notary or by telegram or by registered mail (return receipt requested) and will be deemed to have been given only as of the date of proper service in accordance with the laws of Malaysia;
 
  4.15   Amendment of Agreements: Although certain of the Loan Documents provide that any amendments, variations, supplements or modifications to be made in any of the Loan Documents must be in writing, a Loan Document may nevertheless be varied, amended or discharged without such express written agreement but by an oral agreement or a course of dealing between the parties;
 
  4.16   Search Results obtained from the LOFSA: A search at the records of ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee maintained at LOFSA in Labuan, Malaysia may only reveal the status of ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee based on the records maintained with the LOFSA at a certain date and available for inspection and as such, may not be complete or up-to-date. If a winding up petition has been presented against ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee, searches on the records maintained at LOFSA may not be capable of revealing this. In addition, a winding up order made or a resolution passed for the winding up of ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee or the appointment of a receiver or manager may not be filed immediately with LOFSA;
 
  4.17   Opinion on Facts: We have not investigated and, except as specifically stated in this opinion, make no comment with regard to any warranties, facts, opinions or representations in the Loan Documents or otherwise on their accuracy or adequacy. No documents other than those listed in paragraph 1 which we have deemed necessary and relevant in connection with the opinion hereinbefore set forth have been examined by us;
 
  4.18   Severability: Notwithstanding the severability provision in any of the Loan Documents, the Malaysian court may determine whether or not an illegal or unenforceable provision may be severed from the document in question;
 
  4.19   Indemnity for Legal Costs: The Malaysian courts may, at its discretion, decline to give effect to any indemnity for legal costs incurred;
 
  4.20   Currency of Judgment: The Malaysian courts have the discretion to decline to give judgment in a currency other than Ringgit Malaysia;

 


 

  4.21   Exchange control regulations: In any proceedings taken in Malaysia for the enforcement of the Loan Documents, any sum required to be paid under any judgment or order of any court in Malaysia (whether as a debt, damages or otherwise) to or for the credit of any person resident outside Malaysia must be paid into court, and may be paid to or for the credit of such person only with the permission of the Controller of Foreign Exchange: Paragraph 1, Fourth Schedule of the Exchange Control Act 1953. In this respect, the Controller of Foreign Exchange has pursuant to ECM4, granted general permission for Malaysian resident to make payment in foreign currency to a non-resident for any purpose other than payment for investment abroad in any form or payment under a guarantee for non-trade purposes, subject to the completion of a statistical Form P in the event the payment exceeds RM200,000.00 or USD58,317.54 (based on the exchange rate of RM3.4295 for every RM1.00);
 
  4.22   Default Interest: In relation to the validity or binding effect of the provision relating to default interest in any of the Loan Documents, a Malaysian court will give effect to a provision allowing for default interest to be charged so long as the rate of interest charged can be justified on commercial grounds, and the interest charged is not exorbitant or in the nature of a penalty. Default interest may or may not be a penalty depending on the circumstances (Realvest Properties Sdn Bhd v. The Cooperative Central Bank Limited (under receivership) [1996] 3 CLJ 823).
 
      Should a Malaysian court decide that such a provision was in the nature of a penalty, the court would only award interest on sums not paid under the relevant Loan Documents when due at whatever rate the court considered in the particular circumstances to be the normal rate. In the case of OCBC Bank (Malaysia) Berhad v. Livision Sdn Bhd [1998] 1 LNS 46, the court held that a default interest of 1% above the prescribed rate was not exorbitant and thus, enforceable against the borrower;
 
  4.23   Payment in a Restricted Currency: A provision in any of the Loan Documents requiring ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee to make payment in any currency other than US Dollars, is unenforceable to the extent that the notice or demand for payment requires payment to be made by ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee in any “Restricted Currency” as defined in ECM 1, (namely any currency of Israel) unless the prior approval of the Controller of Foreign Exchange of Malaysia has been obtained;
 
  4.24   Payment to a Specified Person: A provision in any of the Loan Documents requiring ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee to make payment to or perform any other obligations in favour of a “Specified Person” is unenforceable. Pursuant to ECM1, a “Specified Person” means (a) Israel or its residents; (b) the authorities of Israel; (c) the agencies and instrumentalities of Israel or their residents; or (d) any entity owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by Israel or their residents unless the prior approval of the Controller of Foreign Exchange of Malaysia has been obtained;
 
  4.25   Increase of Share Capital of Intermediate Lessee: We express no opinion on the validity or binding effect of the relevant provisions of the Agreement to the extent that it restrict or prohibit ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee’s exercise of its power to increase its share capital. An offshore company may, pursuant to section 51(1) of the Offshore Companies Act 1990 of Malaysia, by special resolution increase its share capital by the creation of new shares, and pursuant to section 47(1) of the Offshore

 


 

      Companies Act 1990 shall have the power to issue the number of shares stated in its memorandum of association;
 
  4.26   Exportation of the Aircraft from Malaysia: The exportation of the Aircraft from Malaysia is subject to the completion and satisfaction of all such surveys, inspections and other administrative and other requirements to be complied with in respect of the Aircraft as may be determined from time to time by the DCA or by the importing aviation authority and subject further to the issuance of an export certificate of airworthiness by the DCA;
 
  4.27   Non-Registration of the Aircraft Mortgage and Security Agreement at the DCA: Under the Civil Aviation Act 1969 and the MCAR, the only form of security interest which is registrable on the aircraft register is a mortgage, which by the definition in the MCAR, does not include a floating charge. In view of this, any security interest created by ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee made under the Aircraft Mortgage and Security Agreement to the extent not amounting to a mortgage over the Aircraft is not registrable on the aircraft register and the doctrine of the bona fide purchaser may operate to defect the interest of the Security Trustee;
 
  4.28   Qualification relating to registrability of a charge over the proceeds of an insurance or a reinsurance contract constituted by a deed of assignment of insurance or reinsurance proceeds: The Malaysian court has decided in Malaysia National Insurance Berhad & Anor v Suruhanjaya Syarikat Malaysia & Anor [2004] 4 MLJ 472; that there is no requirement for charge over the proceeds of a reinsurance contract constituted by a deed of assignment of reinsurance proceeds to be registered under Section 108 of the Companies Act 1965. The court also stated that reinsurance proceeds and insurance proceeds have the same character, and that a reinsurance contract is no more than a specialised form of an insurance contract, being an insurance of an insurance policy.
 
  4.29   Security under the Aircraft Mortgage and Security Agreement over Third Party Debts: As regards to any relevant qualification, the effectiveness of the security in respect of debts owing from or contractual or other rights against third parties (other than ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee) depends on the terms of the contractual agreements between third parties concerned and ILFC Labuan as Intermediate Lessee and any restrictions thereunder. The effectiveness of the security in respect of assets, property or rights outside Malaysia is further subject to the compliance with all laws of the jurisdiction in which such assets, property or rights are located.

Assumptions and Limitations
In rendering the foregoing opinion we have assumed that:
(i)   the records maintained by the FAA are accurate in all respects;

(iii)   the IR descriptions of the Airframe and the Engines are as noted above and are accurate and complete descriptions with respect to the registrations on the IR;
 
(iv)   at the time each of Security Agreement A, Security Agreement B, Security Agreement C and Security Agreement D was concluded, the Debtor was situated, pursuant to the CTT, in the United States;
 
(v)   the necessary parties under each of the Lease, Security Agreement A, Security Agreement B, Security Agreement C and Security Agreement D have given the consents in writing to the registration with the IR of the interests in the Airframe and the Engines created thereby;

(vii)   all of the registrations indicated on the Priority Search Certificates are fully and properly constituted and validly created under the CTT;
 
(viii)   all documents identified in this opinion, all documents in the records maintained by the FAA for the Airframe and the Engines, as well as any registrations on the IR pertaining to the Airframe and the Engines, are valid, enforceable and sufficient under the relevant applicable law or the CTT to create, effect or terminate the rights and interests they purport to create, effect or terminate;
 
(ix)   in rendering this opinion, we have assumed that:
 
(a)   ILFC qualifies as a “citizen of the United States” as defined in the Transportation Code;
 
(b)   the instruments described above are valid and enforceable under applicable local law; and,
 
(c)   there are no documents with respect to the Airframe and the Engines which have been filed for recordation with the FAA under the FAA’s recording system but

A-0


 

    which have not yet been listed in the available records of such system as having been so filed;
 
(x)   there has been no subordination or variation of any priority that would be acquired pursuant to the terms of the CTT, in connection with the registrations on the IR evidenced by the Priority Search Certificates other than pursuant to any subordination indicated on the Priority Search Certificates;

In addition, our opinion is subject to the following limitations:
(xv)   the opinion relating to the registration of the Airframe with the FAA is issued only as to its current eligibility for registration and not with respect to events which may occur in the future which may affect the continued eligibility for registration;
 
(xvi)   because the FAA does not maintain registration records for engines for nationality purposes, we cannot independently verify the owner, make, model, or serial numbers of the Engines;
 
(xvii)   in rendering this opinion, we are subject to the accuracy of the FAA, its employees and agents in the filing, indexing, cross-referencing, imaging and recording of instruments filed with the FAA;
 
(xviii)   no opinion is expressed herein as to laws other than the CTT and the Transportation Code;
 
(xix)   this opinion as to the status of the records of the FAA as to the Airframe covers only that period of time during which the Airframe has been subject to United States Registration; and,

A-1

EXHIBIT A
Assumptions and Limitations

(ii)   the IR descriptions of the Airframe and the Engines are as noted above and are accurate and complete descriptions with respect to the registrations on the IR;
 
(iii)   the CTT International Interests are effective to constitute an International Interest or an Assignment of an International Interest subject to the CTT and registration on the IR;
 
(iv)   all of the registrations indicated on the Priority Search Certificates are fully and properly constituted and validly created under the CTT;
 
(v)   any registrations on the IR pertaining to the Airframe and the Engines are valid, enforceable and sufficient under the relevant applicable law or the CTT to create, effect or terminate the rights and interests they purport to create, effect or terminate;
 
(vi)   there has been no subordination or variation of any priority that would be acquired pursuant to the terms of the CTT, in connection with the registrations on the IR evidenced by the Priority Search Certificates other than pursuant to any subordination indicated on the Priority Search Certificates.
In addition, since our examination was limited to records maintained by the IR, our opinion is subject to the following limitations:
  (i)   in respect of rights derived from registrations with the IR does not cover liens, claims or encumbrances which are perfected without the filing of notice thereof;
 
  (ii)   does not cover liens perfected in foreign jurisdictions, except to the extent applicable law would regulate their priority based on registration with the IR; and,
 
  (iii)   does not cover any rights to arrest or detain an airframe or an engine under any applicable law.

THIRD LIEN BORROWER PARTY GUARANTEE AGREEMENT
THIRD LIEN BORROWER PARTY GUARANTEE AGREEMENT dated as of October 13, 2009 (this “Guarantee”) by International Lease Finance Corporation, a California corporation (“ILFC”), States Aircraft, Inc., a California corporation (“States”), Shrewsbury Aircraft Leasing Limited, a private limited liability company incorporated under the laws of Ireland (“Shrewsbury”, and together with ILFC and States, the “Borrowers”), Top Aircraft, Inc., a California corporation (“Top Aircraft”), ILFC Ireland Limited, a private limited liability company incorporated under the laws of Ireland (“ILFC Ireland”), ILFC France S.a.r.l., a société à responsabilité limitée organized under the laws of France (“ILFC France”), and ILFC Labuan Ltd., a Labuan private limited liability company incorporated under the Offshore Companies Act 1990 of Malaysia (“ILFC Labuan”, and together with ILFC Ireland and ILFC France, the “Intermediate Lessees”) and the Additional Guarantors (as defined in Section 11) (the Borrowers, Top Aircraft, the Intermediate Lessees and the Additional Guarantors, collectively, the “Guarantors” and each a “Guarantor”) for the benefit of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (with its successors and assigns, the “Beneficiary”).
WHEREAS, each Guarantor is a direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of American International Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with its successors, the “Obligor”);
WHEREAS, the Obligor has entered into the Credit Agreement dated as of September 22, 2008 among the Obligor, as borrower, and the Beneficiary, as lender (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Parent Facility”);
WHEREAS, the Borrowers desire to borrow term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $2,000,000,000 under the Credit Agreement dated as of the date hereof among the Borrowers, Top Aircraft, the Intermediate Lessees, AIG Funding, Inc., as lender (the “Borrower Facility Lender”), and Wells Fargo Bank Northwest, National Association, as security trustee (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Borrower Facility”);
WHEREAS, in order for the Borrower Facility Lender to make the Term Loans to the Borrowers under the Borrower Facility, the Obligor must first make a Borrowing (the “New FRBNY Borrowing”) under the Parent Facility in an amount equal to the Term Loans, with the funds so borrowed being advanced immediately to the Borrowers in the form of the Term Loans;


 

WHEREAS, the Parent Facility prohibits the making of the Term Loans by the Borrower Facility Lender to the Borrowers as currently contemplated by the Borrower Facility because the Borrowers are not Loan Parties under the Parent Facility (the “Existing Restriction”);
WHEREAS, ILFC entered into (i) the Demand Note Agreement dated as of March 9, 2009 (the “Existing Loan I Documentation”) with the Borrower Facility Lender, pursuant to which the Borrower Facility Lender extended credit to ILFC in the principal amount of $800,000,000 (the “Existing Loan I”) and (ii) the Demand Note Agreement dated as of March 26, 2009 (the “Existing Loan II Documentation”; and together with the Existing Loan I Documentation, the “Existing Loan Documentation”) with the Borrower Facility Lender, pursuant to which the Borrower Facility Lender extended credit to ILFC in the principal amount of $900,000,000 (the “Existing Loan II”; and together with the Existing Loan I, the “Existing Loans”);
WHEREAS, the Guarantors and the Borrower Facility Lender have agreed to amend and restate the Existing Loan Documentation as provide in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of the date hereof among the Borrowers, Top Aircraft, the Intermediate Lessees, the Borrower Facility Lender and Wells Fargo Bank Northwest, National Association, as security trustee (the “Security Trustee”) (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”; and the loans outstanding thereunder, the “Term Loans”), to, among other things, (i) extend the maturity date of the Existing Loans and (ii) permit the addition of the Non-Parent Borrowers as borrowers thereunder to facilitate a restructuring of the Loans after the Amendment Effective Date (as defined therein);
WHEREAS, the Beneficiary is willing to (a) make the necessary waiver of the Existing Restriction and the other applicable provisions of the Parent Facility, pursuant to the Letter Agreement dated as of October 13, 2009 among the Obligor and the Beneficiary, to enable and permit the making of the term loans under the Borrower Facility and (b) enter into the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, but only if each Guarantor (i) guarantees the Guaranteed Obligations (as defined below) as more fully set forth herein and (ii) secures such guarantee by granting a third-priority security interest in, and lien on, certain of its assets in favor of the Security Trustee, for the benefit of the Beneficiary, as more fully set forth in the Aircraft Mortgage and Security Agreement dated as of the date hereof (the “Mortgage”) among the Guarantors, the Security Trustee and the other Security Trustees (as defined therein); and
WHEREAS, in consideration of the financial accommodation and other support that the Obligor has provided, directly or indirectly, pursuant to the Borrower Facility, the Existing Loans and the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and

2


 

such financial and other support as the Obligor may in the future provide to the Guarantors, and in order to induce the Beneficiary to consent to the making of the Term Loans and to enter into the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement the Guarantors are willing to enter into this Guarantee and to secure their obligations hereunder pursuant to the terms set forth in the Mortgage.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Guarantor, jointly and severally with each other Guarantor, hereby agrees as follows:
     1. Terms Defined in the Parent Facility; Loan Document. For all purposes of this Guarantee, all capitalized terms used but not defined in this Guarantee (including in the recitals above) shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in the Parent Facility. This Guarantee shall be considered a “Loan Document” under the Parent Facility.
     2. The Guarantee. Each Guarantor hereby, jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as a guarantee of payment and not merely as a guarantee of collection, the full and punctual payment when due (whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise) of each Guaranteed Obligation, as hereinafter defined; provided that the recourse of the Beneficiary against the Guarantors under this Guarantee at any time will be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the lesser of (a) $1,700,000,000 plus all unpaid interest accrued thereon under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement through and including such time and (b) the amount of Obligations (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) outstanding under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement at such time. Upon failure by the Obligor to pay punctually any Guaranteed Obligation, the Guarantors shall pay the amount of Guaranteed Obligations not so paid at the FRBNY Account (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement). The Beneficiary shall notify the Guarantors when payment of any Guaranteed Obligation is due hereunder (and the amount so due), unless prevented from doing so by applicable law, including any Bankruptcy Law; provided that any failure of the Beneficiary to so notify the Guarantors shall not affect the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the liability of each Guarantor shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by any Loan Party to the Beneficiary but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving such Loan Party. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Guarantors hereby agree to make payments of principal and interest in respect of the Term Loans to the FRBNY Account set forth in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and each payment of principal of the Term Loans shall be credited against and reduce on a dollar-for-dollar basis the maximum amount of the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, any and all payments by any Guarantor under this

3


 

Guarantee shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as though such payment were made pursuant to Section 2.12 of the Parent Facility and such Guarantor were a Borrower thereunder.
Guaranteed Obligations” means (i) all principal of all Loans outstanding from time to time under the Parent Facility, all interest (including Post-Petition Interest) on such Loans and all other amounts now or hereafter payable by the Obligor under the Loan Documents and (ii) any renewals, refinancings or extensions of any of the foregoing (including Post-Petition Interest).
     3. Guarantee Unconditional. The obligations of each Guarantor under this Guarantee are those of primary obligor, and not merely of surety, and shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by:
     (i) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any obligation of the Obligor, any other Guarantor, any “Guarantor” (as defined in the Parent Facility) (an “Existing Guarantor”) or any other Person under any Loan Document, by operation of law or otherwise;
     (ii) any modification or amendment of or supplement to any Loan Document or any “Loan Document” (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) (an “Amendment Loan Document”);
     (iii) any release, impairment, non-perfection or invalidity of any direct or indirect security for any obligation of the Obligor, any other Guarantor, any Existing Guarantor or any other Person under any Loan Document or Amendment Loan Document;
     (iv) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Obligor, any other Guarantor, any Existing Guarantor or any other Person or any of their respective subsidiaries, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting the Obligor, any other Guarantor, any Existing Guarantor or any other Person or any of their assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of the Obligor, any other Guarantor, any Existing Guarantor or any other Person under any Loan Document or Amendment Loan Document;
     (v) the existence of any claim, set-off or other right that such Guarantor may have at any time against the Obligor, any other Guarantor, any Existing Guarantor, the Beneficiary or any other Person, whether in connection with the Loan Documents or the Amendment Loan Documents or any unrelated transactions; provided that nothing herein shall prevent

4


 

the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim;
     (vi) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against the Obligor, any other Guarantor, any Existing Guarantor or any other Person for any reason of any Loan Document or any Amendment Loan Document, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment of any Obligation, “Obligation” (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement), Guaranteed Obligation or Secured Obligation by the Obligor, any other Guarantor, any Existing Guarantor or any other Person; or
     (vii) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Obligor, any other Guarantor, any Existing Guarantor, any other party to any Loan Document or Amendment Loan Document, the Beneficiary or any other Person, or any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this clause (vii), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of or defense to any obligation of any Guarantor hereunder.
     4. Limit of Liability. (a) Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of this Guarantee, the Beneficiary, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such Persons that this Guarantee and the Guaranteed Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law (as hereinafter defined), the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal or state law to the extent applicable to this Guarantee and the Guaranteed Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Beneficiary and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the Guaranteed Obligations of each Guarantor under this Guarantee at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor under this Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Bankruptcy Law or any comparable provision of applicable law. For purposes hereof, “Bankruptcy Law” means any proceeding of the type referred to in paragraph (g) of Article 7 of the Parent Facility or Title 11, U.S. Code, or any similar foreign, federal or state law for the relief of debtors.
     (b) In the event that the direct or indirect assets of any Guarantor organized under the laws of Ireland are insufficient to pay in full all claims made by the Beneficiary in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor under this Agreement, then the Beneficiary shall have no further claim against such Guarantor with respect to its Guaranteed Obligations for amounts that exceed its direct or indirect assets at such time.
     (c) The guarantees, obligations, liabilities and undertakings granted by ILFC France under this Guarantee shall, for each relevant

5


 

financial year, be, in any and all cases, strictly limited to 90% of the annual net margin generated by ILFC France in connection with back-to-back leasing activities between it and ILFC with respect to the lease of Pool Aircraft (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement).
     5. Discharge Only Upon Payment in Full; Reinstatement In Certain Circumstances. Each Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall remain in full force and effect until the earlier of the time (a) all Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full and no Commitment remains outstanding and (b) all outstanding “Obligations” (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) shall have been paid in full. If at any time any payment of any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Obligor or otherwise, the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder with respect to such payment shall be reinstated as though such payment had been due but not made at such time, but in no event shall any Guarantor have any liability in excess of the amount described in Section 2 above.
     6. Waiver by Guarantors. Each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against the Obligor, any other Guarantor, any Existing Guarantor or any other Person.
     7. Subrogation. Upon making full payment with respect to any obligation of the Obligor hereunder, a Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the payee against the Obligor with respect to such obligation; provided that such Guarantor shall not enforce any payment by way of subrogation so long as any Guaranteed Obligation remains unpaid.
     8. Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any Guaranteed Obligation is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Obligor, all such Guaranteed Obligations otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of the Parent Facility or any other Loan Document shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Beneficiary.
     9. Representations and Warranties. Each Guarantor represents and warrants to the Beneficiary that:
     (a) Such Guarantor is a Person duly organized, validly existing and, if applicable, in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization; and such Guarantor has the power and authority to own its property and to carry on its business as now being conducted and is duly qualified and, if applicable, in good standing as a foreign corporation or other entity authorized to do business in each jurisdiction where, because of the nature of its activities or properties, such qualification is required,

6


 

except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement).
     (b) The execution and delivery by such Guarantor of this Guarantee and the performance of its obligations hereunder and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (i) are within its organizational powers, (ii) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, (iii) have received all necessary approvals, authorizations, consents, registrations, notices, exemptions, licenses, declarations, orders and other actions (if any shall be required) from Governmental Authorities (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement), (iv) do not and will not contravene, constitute a default under or conflict with any provision of (A) law (including any Environmental Law (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement)), rule or regulation applicable to such Guarantor or with respect to any of its properties, (B) any writ, judgment, decree or order to which such Guarantor is a party or by which it is bound or affected, (C) its Operating Documents or Organizational Documents (each as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) or (D) any provision of any agreement or instrument binding on such Guarantor, or any agreement or instrument of which such Guarantor is aware affecting the properties of such Guarantor and (iv) do not and will not result in or require the creation or imposition of any Adverse Claim (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) on any of such Guarantor’s properties pursuant to the terms of any such agreement or instrument referred to in clause (iv)(D) of this Section 9(b), other than the Security Documents (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement). This Guarantee has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Guarantor.
     (c) This Guarantee constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles.
     (d) As of the date hereof, all Litigation Actions (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement), when taken as a whole, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement). As of the date hereof, other than any liability incident to such Litigation Actions or provided for or disclosed in the financial statements referred to in Section 3.04 of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, and other than as set forth in ILFC’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, no Guarantor has any contingent liabilities which are material to its business,

7


 

credit, operations or financial condition of the Guarantors taken as a whole.
     10. Covenants. Each Guarantor covenants and agrees that, so long as any Obligations (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) shall remain unpaid, such Guarantor will perform and observe all of the terms, covenants and agreements set forth in the Amendment Loan Documents on its part to be performed or observed.
     11. Guarantee Supplements. Upon the execution and delivery by any Person of a guarantee supplement in substantially the form of Annex A hereto (each, a “Guarantee Supplement”), (a) such Person shall be referred to as an “Additional Guarantor” and shall become and be a Guarantor hereunder, and each reference in this Guarantee to a “Guarantor” shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Guarantor, and each reference in any other Amendment Loan Document to a “Guarantor” or “Borrower Party” shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Guarantor, and (b) each reference herein to “this Guarantee”, “hereunder”, “hereof” or words of like import referring to this Guarantee, and each reference in any other Amendment Loan Document to the “Borrower Party Guarantee”, “thereunder”, “thereof” or words of like import referring to this Guarantee, shall mean and be a reference to this Guarantee as supplemented by such Guarantee Supplement.
     12. Notices. All notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service, in the manner provided in Section 8.01 of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.

     13. No Waiver. No failure or delay by the Beneficiary or any Third Lien Secured Party (as defined in the Mortgage) in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Guarantee, the Parent Facility, any other Loan Document or any other Amendment Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.
     14. Amendments and Waivers. Any provision of this Guarantee may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the Beneficiary and each Guarantor.
     15. Successors and Assigns. This Guarantee shall be binding upon each Guarantor and its successors and assigns, for the benefit of the Beneficiary and its successors and assigns, except that no Guarantor may transfer or assign any or all of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Beneficiary.

Attention:                                         
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Reference is made to the Third Lien Borrower Party Guarantee Agreement dated as of October 13, 2009, made by the Guarantors party thereto in favor of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (such Borrower Party Guarantee, as in effect on the date hereof and as it may hereafter be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, together with this Guarantee Supplement (this “Guarantee Supplement”), being the “Guarantee”). The capitalized terms defined in the Guarantee and not otherwise defined herein are used herein as therein defined.
Section 1. Guarantee. (a) The undersigned hereby, jointly and severally with the other Guarantors, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as a guarantee of payment and not merely as a guarantee of collection, the punctual payment when due, whether at scheduled maturity or by acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all of the Guaranteed Obligations; provided that the recourse of the Beneficiary against the Guarantors under the Guarantee at any time will be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the lesser of (i) $1,700,000,000 plus all unpaid interest accrued under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement through and including such time and (ii) the amount of Obligations (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) owing by the Borrowers under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement at such time. Upon failure by the Obligor to pay punctually any Guaranteed Obligation, the undersigned shall forthwith pay the amount of Guaranteed Obligations not so paid at FRBNY Account. The Beneficiary shall notify the undersigned when payment of any Guaranteed Obligation is due hereunder (and the amount so due), unless prevented from doing so by applicable law, including any Bankruptcy Law; provided that any failure of the Beneficiary to so notify the undersigned shall not affect the obligations of the undersigned hereunder or under the Guaranee. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the undersigned’s liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and

 


 

would be owed by any Loan Party to the Beneficiary but for the fact that they are unenforceable, rejected, rejectable or otherwise not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving such Loan Party. In furtherance of the foregoing, the undersigned hereby agrees to make payments of principal and interest in respect of the Term Loans to the FRBNY Account set forth in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and each payment of principal of the Term Loans shall be credited against and reduce on a dollar-for-dollar basis the maximum amount of the Guarantors’ obligations under the Guarantee. For the avoidance of doubt, any and all payments by the undersigned under the Guarantee shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as though such payment were made pursuant to Section 2.12 of the Parent Facility and the undersigned were a Borrower thereunder.
(b) The undersigned, and by its acceptance of this Guarantee Supplement, the Beneficiary, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such Persons that this Guarantee Supplement, the Guarantee and the Guaranteed Obligations of the undersigned hereunder and thereunder not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law (as hereinafter defined), the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal or state law to the extent applicable to this Guarantee Supplement, the Guarantee and the Guaranteed Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Beneficiary and the undersigned hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of the undersigned under this Guarantee Supplement and the Guarantee at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the obligations of the undersigned under this Guarantee Supplement and the Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Bankruptcy Law or any comparable provision of applicable law. [In the event that the direct or indirect assets of the undersigned are insufficient to pay in full all claims made by the Beneficiary in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations of the undersigned under this Guarantee Supplement and the Guarantee, then the Beneficiary shall have no further claim against the undersigned with respect to its Guaranteed Obligations for amounts that exceed its direct or indirect assets at such time.]1 [The guarantees, obligations, liabilities and undertakings granted by the undersigned under this Guarantee Supplement and the Guarantee shall, for each relevant financial year, be, in any and all cases, strictly limited to [90]% of the annual net margin generated by the undersigned in connection with back-to-back leasing activities between it and ILFC with respect to the lease of Pool Aircraft (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement).]2
 
1   To be included for entities organized under Irish law only.
 
2   To be included for entities organized under French law only.

 


 

(c) Subject to Section 7 of the Guarantee, the undersigned hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that in the event any payment shall be required to be made to the Beneficiary under this Guarantee Supplement, the Guarantee, or any other guarantee, the undersigned will contribute, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, such amounts to each other Guarantor and Existing Guarantor so as to maximize the aggregate amount paid to the Beneficiary under or in respect of the Loan Documents.
(d) The undersigned hereby agrees that any Indebtedness owed by it to another Loan Party shall be subordinated to the Guaranteed Obligations of the undersigned and that any Indebtedness owed to it by another Loan Party shall be subordinated to the Guaranteed Obligations of such other Loan Party.
Section 2. Guaranteed Obligations Under the Guarantee. The undersigned hereby agrees, as of the date first above written, to be bound as a Guarantor by all of the terms and conditions of the Guarantee to the same extent as each of the other Guarantors thereunder. The undersigned further agrees, as of the date first above written, that each reference in the Guarantee to an “Additional Guarantor” or a “Guarantor” shall also mean and be a reference to the undersigned, and each reference in any other Amendment Loan Document to a “Guarantor” or a “Borrower Party” shall also mean and be a reference to the undersigned.
Section 3. Counterparts. This Guarantee Supplement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Guarantee Supplement by facsimile transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Guarantee Supplement.
Section 4. GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL, ETC. (a) This Guarantee Supplement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York, except as otherwise required by mandatory provisions of law and except to the extent that remedies provided by the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York are governed by the laws of such jurisdiction.
(b) The undersigned hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York County, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guarantee Supplement or the Guarantee, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and the undersigned hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted

 


 

by law, in such Federal court. The undersigned agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Guarantee Supplement shall affect any right that the Beneficiary may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Guarantee Supplement or the Guarantee or the other Amendment Loan Documents against the undersigned or its respective properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

 


 

(c) THE UNDERSIGNED WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTEE SUPPLEMENT, ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR AMENDMENT LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). THE UNDERSIGNED (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS GUARANTEE SUPPLEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION AND THE GUARANTEE.
