 WHEREAS, the Underwriters and the Pass Through Trustee intend that the Net Proceeds be held
in escrow by the Escrow Agent on behalf of the Investors pursuant to the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, subject to withdrawal upon request of and proper certification by the Pass Through Trustee for the purpose of purchasing Equipment Notes, and
that pending such withdrawal the Net Proceeds be deposited by the Escrow Agent with the Depositary pursuant to this Agreement, which provides for the Depositary to pay interest for distribution to the Investors and to establish accounts from which

 NOW, THEREFORE,
in consideration of the obligations contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 

SECTION 1. Acceptance of Depositary; Establishment of Accounts. 

Section 1.1. Acceptance of Depositary. The Depositary hereby agrees to act as depositary bank as provided herein and in connection
therewith to accept all amounts to be delivered to or held by the Depositary pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Depositary further agrees to hold, maintain and safeguard the Deposits and the Accounts (as defined below) during the term of
this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall not have any right to withdraw, assign or otherwise transfer moneys held in the Accounts except as permitted by this Agreement. 

Section 1.2. Establishment of Accounts. The Escrow Agent hereby instructs the Depositary, and the Depositary agrees, to establish
the separate deposit accounts listed on Schedule I hereto and to establish such additional separate deposit accounts as may be required in connection with the deposits contemplated by Section 2.4 hereof (each, an
“Account” and collectively, the “Accounts”), each in the name of the Escrow Agent and all on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. The Depositary shall establish and maintain all Accounts at a branch
of Natixis located in the United States. 
 SECTION 2. Deposit Mechanics. 

Section 2.1. Deposits. The Escrow Agent shall direct the Underwriters to deposit with the Depositary on the date of this Agreement
(the “Deposit Date”) in Federal (same day) funds by wire transfer to: the account of Natixis S.A., acting via its New York Branch, at [            ] and the Depositary
shall accept from the Underwriters, on behalf of the Escrow Agent, the sum of US$126,203,000. Upon acceptance of such sum, the Depositary shall (i) establish each of the deposits specified in Schedule I hereto maturing in
accordance with this Agreement (together with any deposit made pursuant to Section 2.4 hereof, individually, a “Deposit” and, collectively, the “Deposits”) and (ii) credit each Deposit to the
related Account as set forth herein. No amount shall be deposited in any Account other than the related Deposit. 
 Section 2.2.
Interest. Each Deposit shall bear interest from and including the date of deposit to but excluding the date of withdrawal (it being understood that the date of withdrawal in the case of any payment by the Depositary of the amount of the Final
Withdrawal (as defined below) on the Outside Termination Date (as defined below) shall be deemed to be the date of such payment) at the rate of 6.875% per annum (computed on the basis of a 360-day year


  
 Deposit
Agreement (Class B) 
 (2012-1 EETC)

of twelve 30-day months) payable to the Paying Agent on behalf of the Escrow Agent in arrears on each Interest Payment Date (as defined below), on the date of any Final Withdrawal, on the date of
any Replacement Withdrawal (as defined below) or on the date of any Event of Loss Withdrawal (as defined below), as applicable, all in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. As used in this Agreement, the term “Interest Payment
Date”, with respect to each Deposit that, as of any date of determination, has not been withdrawn pursuant to a Final Withdrawal, a Replacement Withdrawal, or an Event of Loss Withdrawal shall mean each of May 7 and November 7
commencing on November 7, 2012 and ending on the earlier of May 7 and November 7 immediately following the date on which such Deposit is withdrawn pursuant to a Notice of Purchase Withdrawal (as defined below); provided that
interest accrued on any Deposit that is withdrawn pursuant to a Notice of Purchase Withdrawal shall be paid on the next Interest Payment Date following the related Purchase Withdrawal, notwithstanding any intervening Final Withdrawal or Event of
Loss Withdrawal with respect to any other Deposit and notwithstanding the fact that the relevant Account may have been closed before such Interest Payment Date, but, if any intervening Replacement Withdrawal occurs before such next Interest Payment
Date, such accrued interest shall, instead, be paid on the date of such Replacement Withdrawal. All interest paid pursuant to this Agreement shall be non-compounding. 
 Section 2.3. Withdrawals. 
 (a) Purchase Withdrawal. On and after
the date seven days after the establishment of any Deposit, the Escrow Agent may, by providing at least one Business Day’s prior notice of withdrawal to the Depositary in the form of Exhibit A hereto (a “Notice of Purchase
Withdrawal”), withdraw the entire balance of such Deposit (but not any accrued and unpaid interest thereon) (with respect to any Deposit, such withdrawal, the “Purchase Withdrawal”), except that at any time prior to the
actual withdrawal of such Deposit, the Escrow Agent or the Pass Through Trustee may, by notice to the Depositary, which notice has been actually received by the Depositary prior to such actual withdrawal, cancel such withdrawal (including on the
scheduled date therefor), and thereafter such Deposit shall continue to be maintained by the Depositary in accordance with the original terms thereof. Following the Purchase Withdrawal of any Deposit, the balance in the related Account shall be
reduced to zero and the Depositary shall close such Account. As used in this Agreement, “Business Day” shall mean any day, other than a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which commercial banks are authorized or required by law to
close in New York, New York, Atlanta, Georgia, Boston, Massachusetts or Wilmington, Delaware. The Depositary may waive the foregoing requirement that any Deposit can only be withdrawn on or after seven days after the establishment thereof, and may
instead reserve the right, upon at least 14 days’ prior written notice to Delta, the Escrow Agent and the Pass Through Trustee, to require seven days’ notice for any withdrawal. 

(b) Final Withdrawal; Replacement Withdrawal; Event of Loss Withdrawal. 

(i) The Escrow Agent may, by providing at least 15 days’ prior notice of withdrawal to the Depositary in the form of Exhibit
B hereto (a “Notice of Final Withdrawal”), withdraw (x) the entire amount of all of the remaining Deposits together with (y) all accrued and unpaid interest on such Deposits to but excluding the specified
date of such 

  
 Deposit
Agreement (Class B) 
 (2012-1 EETC)

withdrawal (such withdrawal of the amounts set forth in the immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y), the “Final Withdrawal”), on such date as shall be specified in such
Notice of Final Withdrawal. If a Notice of Final Withdrawal has not been given to the Depositary on or before the Outside Termination Date (as defined below) and there are unwithdrawn Deposits on such date, the Depositary shall pay the amount of the
Final Withdrawal to the Paying Agent on the Outside Termination Date. Following the Final Withdrawal of any Deposit, the balance in the related Account shall be reduced to zero and the Depositary shall close such Account. As used in this Agreement,
the term “Outside Termination Date” shall mean September 30, 2012. 
 (ii) The Escrow Agent may, by
providing at least five Business Days’ prior notice of withdrawal to the Depositary in the form of Exhibit C hereto (a “Notice of Replacement Withdrawal”), withdraw (x) with respect to all Deposits then held
by the Depositary, (1) the entire amount of such Deposits together with (2) all accrued and unpaid interest on such Deposits to but excluding the specified date of such Replacement Withdrawal (as defined below) and
(y) with respect to all Deposits, if any, previously withdrawn pursuant to a Notice of Purchase Withdrawal, all accrued and unpaid interest on such Deposits to but excluding the date of the applicable Purchase Withdrawal (such withdrawal
of the amounts set forth in the immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y), the “Replacement Withdrawal”), on such date as shall be specified in such Notice of Replacement Withdrawal. 

(iii) On and after the date seven days after the establishment of any Deposit, the Escrow Agent may, by providing at least 15 days’
prior notice of withdrawal to the Depositary in the form of Exhibit D hereto (a “Notice of Event of Loss Withdrawal”), withdraw (x) the entire balance of such Deposit together with (y) all accrued and
unpaid interest on such Deposit to but excluding the specified date of such withdrawal (with respect to any Deposit, such withdrawal of the amounts set forth in the immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y), the “Event of Loss
Withdrawal”), on such date as shall be specified in such Notice of Event of Loss Withdrawal. Following such Event of Loss Withdrawal, the balance in the related Account shall be reduced to zero and the Depositary shall close such Account.
The Depositary may waive the foregoing requirement that any Deposit can only be withdrawn on or after seven days after the establishment thereof, and may instead reserve the right, upon at least 14 days’ prior written notice to Delta, the
Escrow Agent and the Pass Through Trustee, to require seven days’ notice for any withdrawal. 
 (c) Compliance with
Withdrawal Notices. If the Depositary receives a duly completed Notice of Purchase Withdrawal, Notice of Final Withdrawal, Notice of Replacement Withdrawal or Notice of Event of Loss Withdrawal (each, a “Withdrawal Notice”)
complying with the provisions of this Agreement, it shall make the payments specified therein in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no event shall the Depositary
be required, pursuant to any Withdrawal Notice or otherwise, to make payments hereunder on or in respect of any Deposit in excess of the amount of such Deposit together with accrued interest thereon as provided in this Agreement.

 Section 2.4. Other Accounts. On the date of withdrawal of any Deposit (other than
the date of any Final Withdrawal, Replacement Withdrawal or Event of Loss Withdrawal), the Escrow Agent, or the Pass Through Trustee on behalf of the Escrow Agent, shall re-deposit with the Depositary any portion thereof not used to acquire
Equipment Notes and the Depositary shall accept the same for deposit hereunder. Any sums so received for deposit shall be established as a new Deposit and credited to a new Account, all as more fully provided in Section 2.1 hereof, and
thereafter the provisions of this Agreement shall apply thereto as fully and with the same force and effect as if such Deposit had been established on the Deposit Date except that such Deposit may not be withdrawn prior to the date seven days after
the establishment thereof. The Depositary may waive the foregoing requirement that any Deposit can only be withdrawn on or after seven days after the establishment thereof, and may instead reserve the right, upon at least 14 days’ prior written
notice to Delta, the Escrow Agent and the Pass Through Trustee, to require seven days’ notice for any withdrawal. 

SECTION 3. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate on the fifth Business Day after the later of the date on which
(i) all of the Deposits shall have been withdrawn and paid as provided herein without any re-deposit and (ii) all accrued and unpaid interest on the Deposits shall have been paid as provided herein, but in no event prior to
the date on which the Depositary shall have performed in full its obligations hereunder. 
 SECTION 4. Payments. All
payments made by the Depositary hereunder shall be paid in United States Dollars and immediately available funds by wire transfer (i) in the cases of (w) accrued and unpaid interest on the Deposits payable under
Section 2.2 hereof, (x) any Final Withdrawal, (y) any Event of Loss Withdrawal or (z) accrued and unpaid interest on all Deposits, if any, previously withdrawn pursuant to a Notice of Purchase
Withdrawal, which interest is payable pursuant to a Notice of Replacement Withdrawal, directly to the Paying Agent at [            ], or to such other account as the Paying Agent may direct
from time to time in writing to the Depositary and the Escrow Agent, (ii) in the case of any withdrawal of one or more Deposits pursuant to a Notice of Purchase Withdrawal, directly to or as directed by the Pass Through Trustee as
specified and in the manner provided in such Notice of Purchase Withdrawal, and (iii) the case of any withdrawal of one or more Deposits then held by the Depositary together with accrued and unpaid interest on such Deposits pursuant to a
Notice of Replacement Withdrawal, as directed by the Pass Through Trustee as specified and in the manner provided in such Notice of Replacement Withdrawal. The Depositary hereby waives any and all rights of set-off, combination of accounts, right of
retention or similar right (whether arising under applicable law, contract or otherwise) it may have against the Deposits howsoever arising. To the extent permitted by applicable law, all payments on or in respect of each Deposit shall be made free
and clear of and without reduction for or on account of any and all taxes, levies or other impositions or charges (collectively, “Taxes”). However, if the Depositary or the Paying Agent (pursuant to Section 2.04 of the Escrow
and Paying Agent Agreement) shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder, the Depositary shall (i) make such deduction or withholding, (ii) pay the full amount
deducted or withheld (including in respect of such additional amounts) to the competent taxation authority and (iii) if the Taxes required to be deducted or withheld are imposed by France, or any political subdivision thereof, pay such
additional amounts as may be necessary in order that the actual amount received by the designated recipient of such sum under this Agreement or the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement after such deduction or withholding equals the sum it would have
received had no

Agreement (Class B) 
 (2012-1 EETC)

such deduction or withholding been required. If the date on which any payment due on any Deposit would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next
succeeding Business Day, and no additional interest shall accrue in respect of such extension. 
 SECTION 5. Representation
and Warranties. The Depositary hereby represents and warrants to Delta, the Escrow Agent, the Pass Through Trustee and the Paying Agent that: 
 (a) it is a société anonyme duly organized and validly existing in good standing under the laws of France and is duly qualified to conduct banking business in the State of New York;

(d) no authorization, consent or approval of or other action by, and no notice to or filing with (i) any
United States federal or state governmental authority or regulatory body or (ii) any court or governmental authority of France or any political subdivision thereof, is required for the execution, delivery or performance by it of this
Agreement; 
 (e) neither the execution, delivery or performance by it of this Agreement, nor compliance with the

or the charter documents, as amended, or bylaws, as amended, of it or any similar instrument binding on it or any order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental authority against it or by which it or any of its properties is bound or

any lien upon any of its properties; and 
 (f) there are no pending or, to its knowledge, threatened actions,

the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, and (ii) in the case of the Depositary, to a bank (as defined in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended from time to time, for purposes of Section 3(a)(2) thereof) into which the Depositary
shall merge or with which the Depositary shall be consolidated. Any purported assignment in violation of the immediately preceding sentence shall be void. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and
(in the case of the Escrow Agent) permitted assigns. The Depositary agrees to cause any bank into which the Depositary shall merge or with which the Depositary shall be consolidated to deliver to the Escrow Agent an agreement containing the express
assumption by such successor bank as of the effective date of such merger or consolidation, as applicable, of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition of this Agreement unless such assumption shall be effective

 SECTION 14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more

 SECTION 15. Rights of Receiptholders. The
Depositary acknowledges that, if the Depositary shall fail to pay when due hereunder any interest on the Deposits or to pay when due hereunder any Final Withdrawal, any Replacement Withdrawal or any Event of Loss Withdrawal, each Receiptholder (as

bringing suit to enforce any rights the Escrow Agent may have under this Agreement, in respect of amounts that would have been distributed to such Receiptholder pursuant to the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, and that any such claim shall not be
subject to defenses that the Depositary may have against the Escrow Agent. As used in this Agreement, the term “Receiptholder” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement. 

SECTION 16. Miscellaneous. (a) The Depositary shall have only those duties as are specifically and expressly provided herein

with legal counsel in connection with its duties hereunder and shall be fully protected if any action taken, suffered or permitted by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of counsel selected by it with due care; and (iv) shall
not be responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or provided for herein or in connection herewith, except for its own willful misconduct or gross negligence (or simple negligence in connection with the handling of

 (c) The Escrow Agent (which term as used in this sentence shall include reference to its
affiliates and its own and its affiliates’ officers, directors, employees and agents); (i) shall have no duties or responsibilities under this Agreement except those expressly set forth in this Agreement; (ii) shall not be responsible
to the Depositary for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties of any person other than itself contained in this Agreement or the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement or for the failure by the Depositary or any other person or entity

Act of 2001 (“USA PATRIOT Act”) requires the Depositary to implement reasonable procedures to verify the identity of any person that opens a new account with it. Accordingly, the Escrow Agent acknowledges that Section 326 of
the USA PATRIOT Act and the Depositary’s identity verification procedures require the Depositary to obtain information which may be used to confirm the Escrow Agent’s identity including without limitation name, address and organizational
documents (“identifying information”). The Escrow Agent agrees to provide the Depositary with a fully executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 and with any additional identifying information required to the extent necessary in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Escrow Agent also consents to the Depositary obtaining any such identifying information from third parties. 

(ii) The Depositary agrees that, upon the reasonable request of the Escrow Agent, it will provide to the Escrow Agent such information
and documents as the Escrow Agent may require (x) to satisfy applicable anti-money laundering laws and regulations, including the USA PATRIOT Act, the regulations administered by the U.S. Department of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets
Control (“OFAC”), and other applicable U.S. anti-money laundering laws and regulations (collectively, the “anti-money laundering/OFAC laws”), or (y) to meet the requirements of the Escrow Agent’s internal
know your customer policies and procedures adopted in accordance with the anti-money laundering/OFAC laws. 
 (e) To the extent
that the Depositary or any of its properties has or may hereafter acquire any right of immunity, whether characterized as sovereign immunity or otherwise, and whether under the United States Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 (or any successor
legislation) or otherwise, from any legal proceedings, whether in the United States or elsewhere, to enforce or collect upon this Agreement, including, without limitation, immunity from suit or service of process, immunity from jurisdiction or
judgment of any court or tribunal or execution of a judgment, or immunity of any of its property from attachment prior to any entry of judgment, or from attachment in aid of execution upon a judgment, the Depositary hereby irrevocably and expressly
waives any such immunity, and agrees not to assert any such right or claim in any such proceeding, whether in the United States or elsewhere.

 SECTION 17. Limitation on Damages. In no event shall the Depositary be responsible
or liable for special, indirect, punitive, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit, whether or not foreseeable) suffered by the Escrow Agent or any of the Receiptholders in connection
with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated or any relationships established by this Agreement irrespective of whether the Depositary has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

 SECTION 18. Head Office Obligations. The Depositary is Natixis S.A., a French bank, acting through its New York
Branch. The Depositary hereby agrees that, notwithstanding the place of booking or its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization, the obligations of the Depositary hereunder are also the obligations of the head office of Natixis in Paris, France
(the “Head Office”). Accordingly, any beneficiary of this Agreement will be able to proceed directly against the Head Office, if the Depositary defaults in its obligations to such beneficiary under this Agreement. 

SECTION 19. Security Procedures. With respect to all funds transfer instructions that are given by the Escrow Agent pursuant to
this Agreement (other than those given in writing at the time of execution of this Agreement), whether in writing, by facsimile or otherwise, the Depositary is authorized to seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone call-back to the person
or persons listed in the certificate of the Escrow Agent described in Section 8 hereof, and the Depositary may rely upon the confirmation of anyone purporting to be the person or persons so listed. If the Depositary is unable to contact any of
the authorized representatives listed in such certificate, the Depositary may seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone call-back to any one or more of Escrow Agent’s executive officers (“Executive Officers”), as the
case may be, which shall include the titles of Assistant Vice President or Vice President, as the Depositary may select. Upon written request from the Depositary, such “Executive Officer” shall deliver to the Depositary a fully executed
incumbency certificate, and the Depositary may rely upon the confirmation of anyone purporting to be any such officer. The Escrow Agent acknowledges that these security procedures are commercially reasonable.
