     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 the Escrow Agent shall make withdrawals upon request of and proper
certification by the Pass Through Trustee.



     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 The Bank of New York Mellon 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 Bank of New York Mellon, ABA No. [_______], Account Name: Corporate
Trust Agency, Account Number: [_______], For Further Credit: A/C No. [_______], Reference:
American Airlines 2011-2A EETC, and the Depositary shall accept from the Underwriters, on behalf of
the Escrow Agent, the sum of US$725,694,000. 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,

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 8.625% per annum (computed on the basis of a 360-day year 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 October 15 and April 15, commencing
on April 15, 2012 and ending on the earlier of October 15 and April 15 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, Fort Worth, Texas, 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 American, 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 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 December 31, 2011.



               (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 American, 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 American, 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) 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 U.S. Bank Trust National Association, Boston, Massachusetts, ABA# [_______],
Corporate Trust, Account No. [_______], Reference: American Airlines 2011-2A EETC, 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 shall be required by law (or if the Paying Agent
shall have

notified the Depositary that, pursuant to Section 2.04 of the Escrow and Paying Agent
Agreement, the Paying Agent is required by law) to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect
of any sum payable hereunder, the Depositary shall (i) make, or cause to be made, such
deductions or withholding and (ii) pay, or cause to be paid, the full amount deducted or
withheld to the competent taxation authority in accordance with applicable law. 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 American, the Escrow Agent, the Pass Through Trustee and the Paying Agent that:




     (a) it is a New York banking corporation duly organized and validly existing in good
standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization;




     (b) it has full power, authority and legal right to conduct its business and operations
as currently conducted and to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement;




     (c) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement have been duly authorized

legal, valid and binding obligations enforceable against it in accordance with the terms
hereof;




     (d) no authorization, consent or approval of or other action by, and no notice to or

which, if adversely determined, (i) would adversely affect the ability of it to
perform its obligations under this Agreement or (ii) would call into question or
challenge the validity of this Agreement or the enforceability hereof in accordance with the

of this Agreement, the Escrow Agent has delivered to the Depositary a certificate containing
specimen signatures of the representatives of the Escrow Agent who are authorized to give notices
and instructions with respect to this Agreement. The Depositary may conclusively rely on such
certificate until the Depositary receives written notice from the Escrow Agent to the contrary.




     SECTION 9. Obligations Unconditional. The Depositary hereby acknowledges and agrees
that its obligation to repay each Deposit together with interest thereon as provided herein is
absolute, irrevocable and unconditional and constitutes a full recourse obligation of the
Depositary enforceable against it to the full extent of all of its assets and properties.



     SECTION 10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including all attachments hereto) sets
forth all of the promises, covenants, agreements, conditions and understandings between the
Depositary and the Escrow Agent with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior

proceeding, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue
of the suit, action or proceeding is improper or that this Agreement or the subject matter hereof
or any of the transactions contemplated hereby may not be enforced in or by such courts.



     SECTION 13. Waiver of Jury Trial Right. EACH OF THE DEPOSITARY AND THE ESCROW AGENT
ACKNOWLEDGES AND ACCEPTS THAT, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR
PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT SUCH PARTY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO
A TRIAL BY JURY.



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

     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 defined below) shall have the right (individually and without the need for any
other action of any person, including the Escrow Agent or any other Receiptholder) to claim
directly against the Depositary, by making a demand to the Depositary or by 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. 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
