NY 10121 (“Lessee”). 
 W I T N E S S E T H: 

WHEREAS, Lessor is the lessee and the operator of a Gulfstream Aerospace G450 aircraft, manufacturer’s serial number 4179, United States
registration N919 AM (the “Aircraft”); and 
 WHEREAS, Lessor has engaged fully-qualified and credentialed flight crew to operate
the Aircraft; and 
 WHEREAS, Lessor has agreed to lease the Aircraft, with flight crew, to Lessee on a “time sharing” basis as
defined in Section 91.501(c)(1) of the Federal Aviation Regulations (“FAR”) upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein; 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises, and the covenants and agreements set forth herein, and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, Lessor and Lessee, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows: 

1. Lease of Aircraft. Lessor agrees to lease the Aircraft to Lessee pursuant to the provisions of FAR Section 91.501(b)(6) and
Section 91.501(c)(1) and this Agreement, and to provide a fully-qualified and credentialed flight crew for all flights to be conducted hereunder during the Term (as defined in Section 13) hereof. The parties acknowledge and agree that this
Agreement did not result in any way from any direct or indirect advertising, holding out or soliciting on the part of Lessor or any person purportedly acting on behalf of Lessor. Lessor and Lessee intend that the lease of the Aircraft effected by
this Agreement shall be treated as a “wet lease” pursuant to which Lessor provides transportation services to Lessee in accordance with FAR Section 91.501(b)(6) and Section 91.501(c)(1). 

2. Payment for Use of Aircraft. Lessee shall pay Lessor the following listed actual expenses of each flight (the “Reimbursement
Amount”) conducted under this Agreement (i.e. non-business flights for which reimbursement is required in accordance with Lessor’s policies), not to exceed the maximum amount legally payable for such flight under FAR
Section 91.501(d)(1)-(10): 
 (a) fuel, oil, lubricants and other additives; 

(b) travel expenses of crew, including food, lodging and ground transportation; 

(c) hangar and tie-down costs away from the Aircraft’s base of operation; 

(d) additional insurance obtained for the specific flight at the request of Lessee; 

(e) landing fees, airport taxes and similar assessments; 

(f) customs, foreign permit and similar fees directly related to the flight; 

(g) in-flight food and beverages; 

(h) in-flight telecommunication expenses; 

(i) passenger ground transportation; and 

(j) flight planning and weather contract services. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any income is required to be imputed to you with respect to personal use of the Aircraft,
calculated using the Standard Industry Fare Level method in accordance with Internal Revenue Service Regulation §1.61-21, the amount payable by you pursuant to this Section 2 shall be reduced by the amount necessary so that the total out
of pocket cost to you, including taxes owed as a result of imputed income, is no greater than the Reimbursement Amount. 






 3. Operational Control of Aircraft. Lessor and Lessee intend and agree that on all flights
conducted under this Agreement, Lessor shall have complete and exclusive operational control over the Aircraft, its flight crews and maintenance, and complete and exclusive possession, command and control of the Aircraft. Lessor shall have complete
and exclusive responsibility for scheduling, dispatching and flight following of the Aircraft on all flights conducted under this Agreement, which responsibility includes the sole and exclusive right over initiating, conducting and terminating such
flights. Lessee shall have no responsibility for scheduling, dispatching or flight following on any flight conducted under this Agreement, nor any right over initiating, conducting or terminating any such flight. Nothing in this Agreement is
intended or shall be construed so as to convey to Lessee any operational control over, or possession, command and control of, the Aircraft, all of which are expressly retained by Lessor. 

4. Scheduling. 
 (a)
Lessee will provide Lessor with requests for flight time and proposed flight schedules as far in advance of any given flight as possible. Lessee or the designated authorized representative(s) of Lessee shall submit scheduling requests under this
Agreement to the designated authorized representative(s) of Lessor. Requests for flight time shall be in such form (whether oral or written) mutually convenient to, and agreed upon by, the parties. In addition to proposed schedules and flight times,
Lessee shall upon request provide Lessor with the following information for each proposed flight prior to scheduled departure: (i) proposed departure point; (ii) destination; (iii) date and time of flight; (iv) the number of
anticipated passengers; (v) the nature and extent of luggage to be carried; (vi) the date and time of a return flight, if any; and (vii) any other pertinent information concerning the proposed flight that Lessor or the flight crew may
request. 
 (b) Subject to Aircraft and crew availability and to any usage limitations established by Lessor, Lessor shall use its good
faith efforts, consistent with Lessor’s approved policies, in order to accommodate the needs of Lessee, to avoid conflicts in scheduling, and to enable Lessee to enjoy the benefits of this Agreement; however, Lessee acknowledges and agrees that
notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) Lessor shall have sole and exclusive final authority over the scheduling of the Aircraft; and (ii) the needs of Lessor for the Aircraft shall take precedence over
Lessee’s rights and Lessor’s obligations under this Agreement. 
 (c) Although every good faith effort shall be made to avoid its
occurrence, any flight scheduled under this Agreement is subject to cancellation by either party without incurring liability to the other party. In the event that cancellation is necessary, the canceling party shall provide the maximum notice
practicable. 
 5. Billing. Lessor shall pay all expenses relating to the operation of the Aircraft under this Agreement (in
accordance with Section 2 hereof) on a monthly basis. As soon as possible after the end of each monthly period during the Term, Lessor shall provide to Lessee an invoice showing all use of the Aircraft by Lessee under this Agreement during that
month and a complete accounting detailing all amounts payable by Lessee pursuant to Section 2 for that month, including such detail supporting all expenses paid or incurred by Lessor for which reimbursement is sought as Lessee may reasonably
request. Lessee shall pay all amounts due to Lessor under this Section 5 not later than 30 days after receipt of the invoice therefor. 

6. Maintenance of Aircraft. Lessor shall be solely responsible for securing maintenance, preventive maintenance and inspections of the
Aircraft (utilizing an inspection program listed in FAR Section 91.409(f)), and shall take such requirements into account in scheduling the Aircraft hereunder. 

7. Flight Crew. 
 (a)
Lessor shall employ or engage and as between Lessor and Lessee shall be responsible for the payment of all salaries, benefits and/or compensation for a fully-qualified flight crew with appropriate credentials to conduct each flight undertaken under
this Agreement. All flight crewmembers shall be included on any insurance policies that Lessor is required to maintain hereunder. 

  
 2 







 (b) The qualified flight crew provided by Lessor shall exercise all of its duties and
responsibilities with regard to the safety of each flight conducted hereunder in accordance with applicable FAR’ s. The Aircraft shall be operated under the standards and policies established by Lessor. Final authority to initiate or terminate
each flight, and otherwise to decide all matters relating to the safety of any given flight or requested flight, shall rest with the pilot-in-command of that flight. The flight crew may, in its sole
discretion, terminate any flight, refuse to commence any flight, or take any other action that, in the judgment of the pilot-in-command, is necessitated by considerations of safety. No such termination or refusal to commence by the pilot-in-command
shall create or support any liability for loss, injury, damage or delay in favor of Lessee or any other person. Lessor shall not be liable to Lessee or any other person for loss, injury or damage occasioned by the delay or failure to furnish the
Aircraft and flight crew pursuant to this Agreement for any reason. 
 8. Insurance. 

(a) At all times during the Term of this Agreement , Lessor shall maintain at its sole cost and expense (i) comprehensive aircraft and
liability insurance against bodily injury and property damage claims, including, without limitation, contractual liability, premises damage, personal property liability, personal injury liability, death and property damage liability, public and
passenger legal liability coverage, in an amount not less than $100,000,000 for each single occurrence and (ii) hull insurance for the full replacement cost of the aircraft. 

(b) Any policies of aircraft and liability insurance carried in accordance with this Section 8 and any policies taken out in substitution
or replacement of any such policies (i) shall name Lessee and his employees, agents, licensees, servants and guests as additional insured; (ii) shall provide for 30 days written notice to Lessee by such insurer of cancellation, change,
non-renewal or reduction (seven days in the case of war risk and allied perils coverage or such shorter period as is customarily available in the industry); (iii) shall provide that in respect of the interests of Lessee in such policies, the
insurance shall not be invalidated by any action or inaction of Lessor regardless of any breach or violation of any warranties, declarations or conditions contained in such policies by or binding upon Lessor; and (iv) shall permit the use of
the Aircraft by Lessor for compensation or hire to the extent permitted under applicable law. Each such policy shall be primary insurance, not subject to any co-insurance clause and shall be without right of contribution from any other insurance.

 (c) Lessor shall use reasonable commercial efforts to provide such additional insurance coverage for specific flights under this
Agreement, if any, as Lessee may request in writing. Lessee also acknowledges that any trips scheduled to the European Union may require Lessor to purchase additional insurance to comply with local regulations. The cost of all additional
flight-specific insurance shall be borne by Lessee as set forth in Section 2(d) hereof. 
 (d) Each party agrees that it will not do
any act or voluntarily suffer or permit any act to be done whereby any insurance required hereunder shall or may be suspended, impaired or defeated. In no event shall Lessor suffer or permit the Aircraft to be used or operated under this Agreement
without such insurance being fully in effect. 
 (e) Lessor shall ensure that worker’s compensation insurance with all-states coverage
is provided for the Aircraft’s crew and maintenance personnel. 
 (f) Lessor shall deliver certificates of insurance to Lessee with
respect to the insurance required or permitted to be provided by it hereunder not later than the first flight of the Aircraft under this Agreement and upon the renewal date of each policy. 

9. Taxes. Lessee shall be responsible for paying, and Lessor shall be responsible for collecting from Lessee and paying over to the
appropriate authorities, all applicable Federal transportation taxes and sales, use or other excise taxes imposed by any governmental authority in connection with any use of the Aircraft by Lessee hereunder. Each party shall indemnify the other
party against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses (including attorney’s fees as and when incurred) arising out of its breach of this undertaking.

anything or take any action that might mature into such a lien. 
 (c) He shall not lien or otherwise encumber or create or place any lien
