 Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Liens and security interests granted herein, the exercise of any
right or remedy with respect thereto, and certain of the rights of the holder hereof are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the
terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, prior to the Payment in Full of First Lien Priority Debt (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), the requirements of this Agreement

First Lien Agent (as bailee for the Collateral Agent) as provided in the Intercreditor Agreement. 
 Grantor agrees that, in the
event Grantor, pursuant to any First Lien Documents, takes any action to grant or perfect a Lien in favor of the First Lien Agent in any assets (other than Second Lien Excluded Equity Interests (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement)), such
Grantor shall also take such action to grant or perfect a Lien (subject to the Intercreditor Agreement) in favor of the Collateral Agent to secure the Secured Obligations without request of the Collateral Agent, including with respect to any
property in which a Grantor grants or perfects a Lien in favor of the First Lien Agent. 
 TO HAVE AND TO HOLD all and singular
the Collateral unto Collateral Agent, its permitted successors and assigns, forever, upon the terms and trusts herein set forth, for the benefit, security and protection of Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and for the uses
and purposes and subject to the terms and provisions set forth in this Agreement. 
 Grantor does hereby constitute and appoint
Collateral Agent the true and lawful attorney of Grantor, irrevocably, for good and valuable consideration with full power of substitution, which appointment is coupled with an interest, with full power (in the name of Grantor or otherwise) to ask
for, require, demand, receive, sue for, compound and give acquittance for any and all moneys and claims for moneys due and to become due under or arising out of all property (in each case including insurance and requisition proceeds) which now or
hereafter constitutes part of the Collateral, to endorse any checks or other instruments or orders in connection therewith and to file any claims or to take any action or to institute any proceeding which Collateral Agent may deem to be necessary or
advisable in the premises as fully as Grantor itself could do; provided that Collateral Agent shall not be permitted to exercise any such rights except following the existence, and during the continuance of, an Event of Default. Without
limiting the foregoing provisions, following the existence, and during the continuance of, any Event of Default, but subject to the terms hereof, the Intercreditor Agreement and any mandatory requirements of applicable law, Collateral Agent shall
have the right under such power of attorney, but no obligation, in its discretion to file any claim or to take any other action or proceedings, either in its own name or in the name of Grantor or otherwise, which Collateral Agent may reasonably deem
necessary or appropriate to protect and preserve the right, title and interest of Collateral Agent in and to the security intended to be afforded hereby. 
 Grantor agrees that at any time and from time to time, upon the written request of Collateral Agent, Grantor will, at its cost and expense, promptly and duly execute and deliver or cause to


  
 4 








 
be duly executed and delivered any and all such further instruments and documents (including legal opinions reasonably requested by Collateral Agent), and do such further acts and things,
including filings, recordations, registrations, and similar actions under the Code, with the FAA, with the International Registry, or any other registry with respect to any Aircraft, any Engine, any Rotor, any Rotor Blade, as Collateral Agent may
reasonably deem desirable in obtaining the full benefits of the security interest and assignment hereunder and of the rights and powers herein granted. 
 Grantor does hereby warrant and represent that, except as permitted by the Secured Documents, it has not granted a security interest in or assigned or pledged, or sold, transferred, leased, or otherwise
disposed of, and hereby covenants that, except as permitted by the Secured Documents, it will not (i) grant a security interest in, assign or pledge, or sell, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of, so long as the Lien of this Agreement has
not been discharged in accordance with the terms hereof, any of its rights, titles or interests in the Collateral to any Person other than Collateral Agent and the First Lien Agent, and (ii) except in each case as provided hereunder, or so long
as no Event of Default is in existence, enter into any agreement amending or supplementing any agreement assigned or pledged hereunder or execute any waiver or modification of, or consent under, the terms of, or exercise any rights, powers or
privileges under, any agreement assigned or pledged hereunder, or settle or compromise any claim arising under any agreement assigned or pledged hereunder, submit or consent to the submission of any dispute, difference or other matter arising under
or in respect of any agreement assigned or pledged hereunder, or to arbitration thereunder. 
 It is hereby further agreed that
any and all Collateral described or referred to in the granting clause hereof which is hereafter acquired by Grantor shall ipso facto, and without any other conveyance, assignment or act on the part of Grantor or Collateral Agent, become and
be subject to the Lien herein granted as fully and completely as though specifically described herein. 
 SECTION 3. COVENANTS OF
THE GRANTOR 
 Section 3.1 Liens and Legal Opinions. 

(a) Grantor shall not directly or indirectly create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien on or International Interest against or
with respect to any Aircraft, any Airframe, any Engine, any Rotor, any Rotor Blade, or any Part or title thereto or any interest therein except for Permitted Liens. Grantor shall promptly, at its own expense, take such action as may be necessary to
duly discharge (by bonding or otherwise) any Lien other than a Permitted Lien arising at any time. 
 (b) Promptly following the
execution and delivery of this Agreement Grantor shall furnish an opinion of qualified FAA counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Collateral Agent, that (i) this Agreement is in recordable form, (ii) this Agreement has
been filed for recordation with the FAA in accordance with the Federal Aviation Act and creates a duly perfected second priority security interest in favor of Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in the portion of the Collateral
for which a security interest can be perfected by such filing with the FAA in favor of Collateral Agent, and there are no other Liens of record with the FAA with respect to the Collateral (except for Permitted Liens), and (iii) the
International Interests granted in each Aircraft (and each of the applicable Engines) under this Agreement have been registered as International Interests with the International Registry in accordance with the Cape Town Convention, and there are no
other International Interests of record with the International Registry with respect to the Collateral (except for Permitted Liens) (and Grantor shall have furnished to Collateral Agent a “priority search certificate” from the
International Registry confirming the foregoing), and covering such other matters as Collateral Agent shall reasonably request. Promptly after this Agreement has been recorded by the FAA, Grantor shall deliver to Collateral Agent an opinion of such
counsel, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Collateral Agent, as to the due recordation thereof by the FAA.

 Section 3.2 Possession. 

Except as expressly permitted in Section 3.9 or pursuant to each Secured Document, Grantor shall not lease, or otherwise in any
manner deliver, relinquish or transfer possession of any Airframe, any Engine, any Rotor, or any Rotor Blade to any Person or install any Engine, Rotor, or Rotor Blade, or permit any Engine, Rotor, or Rotor Blade, to be installed, on an airframe
other than the Airframes, provided, however, that so long as all approvals, consents or authorizations required from the Aeronautical Authority in connection with any such lease or such delivery, transfer or relinquishment of possession have
been obtained and remain in full force and effect, Grantor may, whether or not permitted by each Secured Document: 
 (a) enter
into a Wet Lease or other similar arrangement under which Grantor has operational control of any Airframes, any Engines, any Rotors, any Rotor Blades installed thereon in the course of Grantor’s business (which shall not be considered a
transfer of possession hereunder), provided that Grantor’s obligations under this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any such Wet Lease or other similar arrangement; 

(b) so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom, deliver possession of any Airframe,
any Engine, any Rotor, any Rotor Blade, or any Part to the manufacturer thereof or to any FAA certified organization for testing, service, repair, maintenance, overhaul work or other similar purposes or for alterations or modifications or additions
required or permitted by the terms of this Agreement; 
 (c) so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing or would result therefrom, install an Engine, Rotor, or Rotor Blade on an airframe owned by Grantor that is free and clear of all Liens except (i) Permitted Liens, or (ii) those which apply only to the engines (other than the
Engines), appliances, parts, instruments, appurtenances, accessories, furnishings and other equipment (other than Parts, Rotors, or Rotor Blades) installed on such airframe; 
 (d) so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom, install an Engine, Rotor, or Rotor Blade on an airframe leased by Grantor or purchased by Grantor
subject to a conditional sale or other security agreement, but only if (i) such airframe is free and clear of all Liens, except (A) the rights of the parties to such lease, or any such secured financing arrangement, covering such airframe
and (B) Liens of the type permitted by Section 3.2(c), and (ii) Grantor shall have received from the lessor, mortgagee, secured party or conditional seller, in respect of such airframe, a written agreement (which may be a copy of the
lease, mortgage, security agreement, conditional sale or other agreement covering such airframe), whereby such Person agrees that it will not acquire or claim any right, title or interest in, or Lien on, such Engine, Rotor, or Rotor Blade by reason
of such Engine, Rotor, or Rotor Blade being installed on such airframe at any time while such Engine, Rotor, or Rotor Blade is subject to this Agreement; 
 (e) install an Engine, Rotor, or Rotor Blade on an airframe, owned by Grantor, leased by Grantor or purchased by Grantor subject to a conditional sale or other security agreement under circumstances where
neither clause (c) nor clause (d) above is applicable; or 
 (f) transfer possession of any Airframe, any Engine, any
Rotor, or Rotor Blade to the United States of America when required by Applicable Law, in which event Grantor shall promptly notify Collateral Agent in writing of any such transfer of possession; 

  
 6 








 provided that (1) the rights of any transferee who receives possession by reason
of a transfer permitted by this Section 3.2 shall be subject and subordinate to all the terms of this Agreement (except as required by Applicable Law in respect of Persons described in clause (b) or clause (f) above); (2) Grantor
shall remain primarily liable hereunder for the performance of all the terms and conditions of this Agreement and all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other applicable Secured Documents shall remain in effect; (3) no lease
or transfer of possession otherwise in compliance with this Section 3.2 shall (A) result in any registration or re-registration of any Aircraft or the maintenance, operation or use thereof except in compliance with Sections 3.3(b), (c),
(d) or (f), or (B) permit any action not permitted to Grantor hereunder; (4) if any such lease or transfer of possession shall result in any risk of adverse tax consequences to the Secured Parties (as determined in an Officers’
Certificate delivered by the Issuer to the Collateral Agent and on which the Collateral Agent may conclusively rely), Grantor shall, prior to entering into the same, provide an indemnity satisfactory in form and substance to the Collateral Agent
against any such adverse tax consequences; (5) Grantor shall provide sufficient evidence that the insurance required by Section 3.3(k) remains in effect and for the purpose of Collateral Agent’s review of such insurance requirements,
Grantor shall, at least five (5) days prior to the date of any lease permitted under this Section 3.2, provide to Collateral Agent, forms of the broker’s report and insurance certificates required by Section 3.3(k)(vi);
(6) all necessary documents shall have been duly filed or recorded in applicable public offices as may be required to preserve the Lien of this Agreement upon the Airframe and Engines; and (7) Grantor shall reimburse Collateral Agent, on
an after tax basis, for all of its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, registration and filing fees, notary fees, and disbursements of counsel) in connection with any such lease or transfer. 

Section 3.3 Registration and Operation. 
 (a) Registration and Recordation. Except as expressly permitted in Section 3.9, each Aircraft shall be duly registered in the name of Grantor under the Transportation Code and on the
International Registry at all times; provided that Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver all such documents as Grantor may reasonably request for the purpose of effecting or continuing such registration. Except as expressly permitted in
Section 3.9, Grantor shall not change the registration number of any Aircraft. Unless the Lien of this Agreement has been discharged in accordance with terms hereof, Grantor shall also cause this Agreement to be duly recorded and at all times
maintained of record on such registries as a second-priority perfected mortgage on each Aircraft, each Airframe, and each of the Engines, except as expressly permitted in Section 3.9. 

(b) Intentionally Omitted. 
 (c) Markings. If permitted by Applicable Law, Grantor will cause to be affixed to, and maintained in, the cockpit of such Airframe, in a clearly visible location, and in a visible location on each
Engine, a placard of a reasonable size and shape bearing the legend, in English, set forth below: 
 Mortgaged to 

Wilmington Trust, National Association, 
 as Collateral Agent 
 Such placard may be removed temporarily, if necessary, in
the course of maintenance of such Airframe or such Engine, as the case may be. If such placard is damaged or becomes illegible, Grantor shall promptly replace it with a placard complying with the requirements of this Section 3.3(c). 


  
 7 








 (d) Compliance With Laws. Grantor shall not permit any Airframe, any Engine, any
Rotor, or any Rotor Blade to be used or operated in violation of any Applicable Law or in violation of any airworthiness certificate, license or registration relating to such Aircraft, Engines, Rotors, or Rotor Blades issued by any competent
governmental authority, unless (i) the validity thereof is being contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings which do not involve a danger (other than a de minimis danger) of the sale, forfeiture or loss of such Airframe, such
Engines, such Rotors, or such Rotor Blades or the Lien of this Agreement thereupon, any risk of criminal liability or any material risk of civil liability against Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, or (ii) it is not possible for
Grantor to comply with the Laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States because of a conflict with the Applicable Laws of the United States. 
 (e) Operation. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Grantor shall be entitled to operate, use, locate, employ or otherwise utilize or not utilize the Airframes, Engines, Rotors, Rotor
Blades, and Parts in any lawful manner or place in accordance with Grantor’s business judgment. Grantor shall not operate, use or locate any Airframe, any Engine, any Rotor, any Rotor Blade, or suffer any Airframe, any Engine, any Rotor, any
Rotor Blades to be operated, used or located (i) in any area excluded from coverage by any insurance required by the terms of Section 3.3(k) hereof, except in the case of a requisition by the United States of America where Grantor obtains
(and provide evidence of) indemnity from the Governmental Authority for the benefit of the Additional Insureds against substantially the same risks and for at least the amounts of the insurance required by Section 3.3(k) hereof covering such
area, or (ii) unless covered by war risk insurance, unless such Airframe, such Engine, such Rotor, or such Rotor Blade is operated or used under contract with the Government under which contract the Government assumes liability for
substantially the same risks, on terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to Collateral Agent, in at least the same amounts as would be covered by such insurance. 
 (f) Information for Filings. Grantor shall promptly furnish to Collateral Agent such information that is under its control or to which it has reasonable access as may be required to enable
Collateral Agent timely to file any reports required to be filed by it with any Governmental Authority because of, or in connection with, the interest of Collateral Agent in the Aircraft, Airframes, Engines, Rotors, Rotor Blades, or any other part
of the Collateral (it being understood that the Collateral Agent is not obligated to make any such filings and notwithstanding the foregoing each Grantor shall cause to be timely filed all such reports required to be filed with any Governmental
Authority). 
 (g) Maintenance. Grantor, at its own cost and expense, shall service, repair, maintain, overhaul and test
each Aircraft, each Airframe, each Engine, each Rotor, each Rotor Blade, or cause the same to be done in accordance with (1)(i) a Maintenance Program and (ii) maintenance standards required by the FAA, and shall keep or cause to be kept
Aircraft, each Airframe, each Engine, each Rotor, and each Rotor Blade in as good operating condition as where originally mortgaged hereunder and after giving effect to the refurbishment contemplated to be financed hereby, ordinary wear and tear
excepted, and shall keep or cause to be kept each Aircraft, each Airframe, each Engine, each Rotor, and each Rotor Blade in such operating condition as may be necessary to enable the airworthiness certification of each Aircraft to be maintained in
good standing at all times under the applicable rules and regulations of the FAA, except when all aircraft of the same type, model or series as such Airframe (powered by engines of the same type as those with which such Airframe shall be equipped at
the time of grounding) have been grounded by the FAA, and (2) the same standards Grantor uses with respect to similar aircraft of similar size in its fleet operated (whether owned or leased) by Grantor in similar circumstances. Nothing herein
shall be deemed to prevent Grantor from taking any Aircraft out of service for maintenance or modifications permitted hereunder or storage in accordance with applicable FAA requirements and sound practice for such storage. Grantor shall maintain and
update in a timely fashion all records, logs and other documents required by the FAA or any other Government Authority having jurisdiction to be maintained in respect of the Aircraft and such records, logs and other documents shall


  
 8 








 
be kept in the English language. Grantor further agrees that the Aircraft, Airframes, Engines, Rotors, and Rotor Blades will be maintained, used, serviced, repaired, overhauled or inspected in
compliance with Applicable Law with respect to the maintenance of the Aircraft and compliance with each applicable airworthiness certificate, license and registration relating to such Collateral issued by the FAA. Grantor shall comply with all
airworthiness directives from the FAA and all mandatory service bulletins issued from any Manufacturer or Engine Manufacturer. 

(h) Replacement of Parts. 
 Except as otherwise provided in the proviso to the third sentence of Section 3.3(j), Grantor, at its own cost and expense, will promptly replace all Parts that may from time to time become worn out,
lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged beyond repair or permanently rendered unfit for use for any reason whatsoever. In addition, in the ordinary course of maintenance, service, repair, overhaul or testing, Grantor, at its own cost
and expense, may remove any Parts, whether or not worn out, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged beyond repair or permanently rendered unfit for use, provided that Grantor, at its own cost and expense, shall, except as
otherwise provided in the proviso to the third sentence of Section 3.3(j), replace such Parts as promptly as practicable with replacement Parts. All replacement Parts shall be free and clear of all Liens except for Permitted Liens and shall be
in as good operating condition as, and shall have a value and utility at least equal to, the Parts replaced assuming such replaced Parts were in the condition and repair required to be maintained by the terms hereof. 

Except in respect of any Part that Grantor may remove from an Airframe, an Engine, a Rotor, or a Rotor Blade as provided in the proviso
to the third sentence of Section 3.3(j), all Parts at any time removed from an Airframe, an Engine, a Rotor, or a Rotor Blade shall remain the property of Grantor and subject to this Agreement, no matter where located, until such time as such
Parts shall be replaced by Parts that have been incorporated or installed in or attached to an Airframe, Engine, a Rotor, or a Rotor Blade and that meet the requirements for replacement Parts specified in the first paragraph of this
Section 3.3(h). Immediately upon any replacement Part becoming incorporated or installed in or attached to an Airframe, Engine, Rotor, or a Rotor Blade as provided in this Section 3.3(h), without further act, (i) title to the replaced
Part shall be free and clear of all rights of Collateral Agent and such Part shall no longer be deemed a Part hereunder; (ii) title to such replacement Part shall thereupon vest in Grantor; and (iii) such replacement Part shall become
subject to the Lien of this Agreement and be deemed part of such Airframe, Engine, Rotor, or Rotor Blade as the case may be, for all purposes hereof to the same extent as the Parts originally incorporated or installed in or attached to such
Airframe, Engine, Rotor, or Rotor Blade. 
 (i) Intentionally Omitted. 

(j) Alterations, Modifications and Additions. 
 Grantor, at its own expense, shall make (or cause to be made) alterations and modifications in and additions to any Airframe, any Engine, any Rotor, or any Rotor Blade as may be required to be made from
time to time by Applicable Law and to meet applicable standards of any airworthiness directives or any other standard of the FAA and any mandatory service bulletins of the applicable Manufacturer or the applicable Engine Manufacturer or in order to
maintain the insurance required under Section 3.3(k) regardless of upon whom such requirements are, by their terms, nominally imposed; provided that Grantor may, in good faith and by appropriate procedure, contest the validity or
application of any such standard in any reasonable manner which does not adversely affect the interests of Collateral Agent and does not involve any risk (other than a de minimis risk) of sale, forfeiture or loss of any Aircraft, any
Airframe, any Engine, any Rotor, any Rotor Blade, or the Lien of this Agreement 

  
 9 








 
thereupon, any material risk of civil penalty or any risk of criminal liability being imposed on Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party. In addition, Grantor, at its own expense, may from
time to time make or cause to be made such alterations and modifications in and additions to any Airframe, any Engine, any Rotor, or any Rotor Blades as Grantor may deem desirable in the proper conduct of its business including, without limitation,
removal of Parts which Grantor deems are obsolete or no longer suitable or appropriate for use in such Aircraft, such Airframe, such Engine, such Rotors, or such Rotor Blades, provided further that no such alteration, modification or addition
diminishes the value, utility, estimated residual value (with respect to the applicable Airframe only), condition, remaining useful life or airworthiness of such Airframe, such Engine, such Rotor, or such Rotor Blade below the value, utility,
estimated residual value, condition, remaining useful life or airworthiness thereof immediately prior to such alteration, modification or addition, assuming such Airframe, Engine, Rotor, or Rotor Blade was then in the condition required to be
maintained by the terms of this Agreement, except that the value (but not the utility, estimated residual value, condition, remaining useful life or airworthiness) of the Aircraft may be reduced by the value of Parts which Grantor has removed as
permitted above. All Parts incorporated or installed in or attached or added to any Airframe, any Engine, any Rotor, or any Rotor Blade as the result of any alteration, modification or addition effected by Grantor shall become the property of
Grantor and, without further act, subject to the Lien of this Agreement and shall be free and clear of any other Liens except Permitted Liens, provided that Grantor may remove any such Part from the Airframe, any Engine, any Rotor, or any
Rotor Blade if (i) such Part is in addition to, and not in replacement of or in substitution for, any Part originally incorporated or installed in or attached to such Airframe, such Engine, such Rotor, or such Rotor Blade at the time of
delivery thereof hereunder or any Part in replacement of, or in substitution for, any such original Part, (ii) such Part is not required to be incorporated or installed in or attached or added to such Airframe or such Engine pursuant to the
terms of Section 3.3(g) or the first sentence of this Section 3.3(j) or pursuant to the terms of any insurance policies required to be carried hereunder or under any Applicable Law and (iii) such Part can be removed from such
Airframe, such Engine, such Rotor, or such Rotor Blade without diminishing or impairing the value, condition, utility, estimated residual value, remaining useful life or airworthiness which such Airframe, Engine, Rotor, or Rotor Blade would have had
at the time of removal had such alteration, modification or addition not been effected by Grantor assuming such Aircraft was otherwise maintained in the condition required by this Agreement. Upon the removal by Grantor of any such Part as above
provided, title thereto shall, without further act, remain in Grantor, free and clear of all rights of Collateral Agent and such Part shall no longer be deemed a Part hereunder. 

(k) Insurance. 
 (i) General Requirements 
 Grantor shall at all times, at its own cost and expense,
cause policies of insurance in such form, of such type and with financially sound insurers, to be procured and maintained on or in respect of each Aircraft and Engine, as follows: (1) comprehensive aircraft liability insurance complying with
all applicable regulatory requirements and covering all risks which Grantor may incur by reason of the use or operation of the Aircraft in or over any area (including, without limitation, contractual, bodily injury, passenger, public and property
damage liability) with respect to each Aircraft in an amount not less than the greater of (A) $50,000,000 per occurrence or (B) the amounts of comprehensive aviation liability insurance from time to time applicable to aircraft operated by
Grantor (whether owned or leased) of the type of such Aircraft; (2) cargo liability insurance with respect to each Aircraft; (3) all-risk ground and flight aircraft hull insurance covering each Aircraft in motion and not in motion, and

 10 









 
be maintained with financially sound insurers and shall be in a form and on terms consistent with this Section and Section 4.05 of the Indenture and the corresponding provision of any
Additional Pari Passu Agreement, and Grantor shall provide evidence of compliance with the insurance requirements outlined herein in accordance with section 3.3(k)(v). For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict
that cannot be resolved between this Section 3.3(k) hereof and the provisions of the Section 4.05(b) of the Indenture, the provisions of this Agreement shall control and govern. 

(ii) Additional Insureds, Etc. 
 All insurance policies required hereunder shall (1) require 30 days’ prior written notice of cancellation, non-renewal or material change in coverage to Collateral Agent (any such cancellation,
non-renewal or change, as applicable, not being effective until the thirtieth (30th) day after the giving of such notice); (2) name the Collateral Agent and the Additional Insureds as additional insureds under the public liability policies
and name Collateral Agent as loss payee under the physical damage insurance policies (and any such proceeds paid to Collateral Agent shall be held and distributed in the manner provided in Section 3.3(k)(iv) and the other provisions hereof);
(3) not require contributions from other policies held by the Additional Insureds; (4) waive any right of subrogation against the Additional Insureds; (5) in respect of any liability of any of the Additional Insureds, waive the right
of such insurers to set-off, to counterclaim or to any other deduction, whether by attachment or otherwise, to the extent of any monies due the Additional Insureds under such policies; (6) not require that any of the Additional Insureds pay or
be liable for any premiums with respect to such insurance covered thereby; (7) be in full force and effect throughout any geographical areas at any time traversed by any Airframe or Engine; (8) contain a clause requiring the insurer, upon
notice of the same, to name any assignee of an Additional Insured’s interest as an additional insured and a loss payee; (9) shall provide that all of the provisions thereof, except the limits of liability, shall operate in the same manner
as if there were a separate policy covering each Additional Insured; and (10) with respect to physical damages policies only, contain breach of warranty provisions providing that, in respect of the interests of the Additional Insureds in such
policies, the insurance shall not be invalidated by any action or inaction of Grantor or any other person (other than an Additional Insured, as to itself only) and shall insure the Additional Insureds regardless of any breach or violation of any
warranty, declaration or condition contained in such policies by Grantor or by any other person (other than an Additional Insured, as to itself only). 
 (iii) War and Allied Perils Insurance. 
 With respect to each Aircraft operated
outside the continental United States, Grantor shall maintain, and supply Collateral Agent proof of, war and allied perils insurance for all locations that such Aircraft travels to and through, which covers the perils of (1) war, invasion, acts
of foreign enemies, hostilities (whether war be declared or not), civil war, rebellion, revolution, insurrection, martial law, military or usurped power or attempts at usurpation of power, (2) strikes, riots, civil commotions or labor
disturbances, (3) any act of one or more persons, whether or not agents of a sovereign power, for political or terrorist purposes and whether the loss or damage resulting therefrom is accidental or intentional, (4) any malicious act or act
of sabotage, (5) confiscation, nationalization, seizure, restraint, detention, appropriation, requisition for title or use by or under the order of any government (whether civil, military or de facto) or public or local authority and

Grantor. 

  
 11 









 (iv) [Reserved] 
 (v) Reports, etc. 
 Grantor will furnish to Collateral Agent (A) on or prior
to the date of execution of the Security Agreement Supplement that includes hereunder the Airframe or Engine to which such insurance relates, insurance certificates describing in reasonable detail the insurance maintained by Grantor as required
pursuant to this Section 3.3(k), (B) prior to the cancellation, lapse or expiration of the insurance policies required pursuant to this Section 3.3(k), evidence of renewal of such insurance policies, and (C) on or prior to the
date of execution of the Security Agreement Supplement that includes hereunder the Airframe or Engine to which such insurance relates and on or before the renewal dates of the insurance policies carried by Grantor pursuant to this
Section 3.3(k), a report signed by a firm of aircraft insurance brokers, not affiliated with Grantor, appointed by Grantor and reasonably satisfactory to Collateral Agent, stating the opinion of such firm that all premiums in connection with
the insurance then due have been paid and the insurance then carried and maintained on each Aircraft complies with the terms hereof and, in the case of renewal insurance, that such renewal insurance will on and after the effective date thereof so
comply with the terms hereof. Grantor will instruct such firm to give prompt written advice to Collateral Agent (1) of such firm’s receipt of any notice of cancellation of the insurance policies, or notice of a change in the insurance
policies which would, in such firm’s judgment, adversely change the statements set forth in the insurance certificates described in clause (A) of this Section 3.3(k)(v), (2) if any premiums are not paid to such firm by Grantor as
agreed between Grantor and the applicable insurer(s), after giving effect to the procedures and/or terms that exist between such insurer(s) and such firm from time to time regarding the payment of premiums, (3) upon application by Collateral
Agent, of the premium payment situation, (4) if such firm ceases to be the insurance broker to Grantor, (5) within fourteen (14) days following such firm’s receipt of a written request from Collateral Agent not later than one
month before expiration of the insurance policies, if such firm has not received renewal instructions from Grantor, and (6) of any other act or omission on the part of Grantor of which it has knowledge and which would in such firm’s
opinion invalidate or render unenforceable, in whole or in any material part, any insurance on any Aircraft. Grantor will also instruct such firm to advise Collateral Agent in writing at least 30 days prior to the termination or cancellation of, or
material adverse change in, such insurance carried and maintained on each Aircraft pursuant to this Section 3.3(k) (or such lesser period as may be applicable in the case of war risk coverage). 

(vi) Right to Pay Premiums. 
 Collateral Agent, as agent for and on behalf of itself and the Additional Insureds shall have the rights but not the obligations of an additional named insured. None of Collateral Agent, any other Secured
Party or any other Additional Insureds shall have any obligation to pay any premium, commission, assessment or call due on any such insurance (including reinsurance). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of cancellation of any insurance due
to the nonpayment of premiums, each of Collateral Agent, the other Secured Parties and the other Additional Insureds shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to pay any such premium in respect of each Aircraft that is due in respect of the
coverage pursuant to this Agreement and to maintain such coverage, as Collateral Agent, the other Secured Parties or the other Additional Insureds may require, until the scheduled expiry date of such insurance and, in such event, Grantor shall, upon
demand, reimburse Collateral Agent, the other Secured Parties and the other Additional Insureds for amounts so paid by them. 

(l) Holding Out. 
 Grantor agrees that it and the other Guarantors and their respective Subsidiaries will not at any time represent or hold out any Secured Party or any Affiliate of any of any Secured Party (and will


  
 12 









 
use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that no Secured Party or any Affiliate of any Secured Party is at any time represented or held out by any other Affiliate) as being in any way
connected or associated with any operation of any Airframe, any Engine, any Rotor, any Rotor Blade, or any Part or any other operations or carriage undertaken by Grantor. 
 (m) No Pledging of Credit. 
 Grantor is not authorized to, and agrees that
it will not purport to, pledge the credit of Collateral Agent or any Secured Party for any maintenance, service, repairs, or overhauls of, modifications to, or changes or alterations in, any Airframe, any Engine, any Rotor, any Rotor Blade, or any
Part, or for any other purpose whatsoever. 
 Section 3.4 [Reserved]. 

Section 3.5 Agreement Regarding Engines. 
 Collateral Agent hereby agrees for the benefit of agent or secured party of any engine (other than any Engine) or of any airframe (other than any Airframe) leased to Grantor or purchased by Grantor
subject to a conditional sale or other security agreement, which lease or conditional sale or other security agreement (in the case of any such airframe) also covers an engine or engines owned by agent under such lease or subject to a security
interest in favor of the secured party under such conditional sale or other security agreement, that Collateral Agent will not acquire or claim, as against such agent or secured party, any right, title or interest in any such engine as the result of
such engine being installed on any Airframe at any time while such engine is owned by such agent or is subject to such conditional sale or other security agreement or security interest in favor of such secured party. 

Section 3.6 Quiet Enjoyment. 
 Collateral Agent covenants that, as long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Grantor’s possession, use and quiet enjoyment of each Aircraft in accordance with and subject to the
provisions of this Agreement, the Indenture and each other Secured Document shall not be interrupted by Collateral Agent (or any Person lawfully claiming through Collateral Agent). 

Section 3.7 Inspection. 
 At all reasonable times and intervals as Collateral Agent may designate and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, with reasonable prior notice to Grantor and during
regular business hours, Collateral Agent or its authorized representatives may at their own expense and risk (unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in which event Grantor shall bear such expense and risk) conduct a visual
walk-around inspection of any Aircraft and any Engine (including a visual walk-around inspection of any Aircraft during any “C” check or other heavy maintenance) and may inspect the books and records of Grantor relating to the operation
and maintenance thereof and Grantor shall provide copies of such books and records to Collateral Agent or its authorized representatives at its or their reasonable request; provided that (a) such representatives shall be fully insured to
the reasonable satisfaction of Grantor by Collateral Agent with respect to any risks incurred in connection with any such inspection, (b) any such inspection shall be subject to the safety, security and workplace rules applicable at the
location where such inspection is conducted and any applicable governmental rules or regulations, and (c) in the case of an inspection during a maintenance visit, such inspection shall not interfere with the normal conduct of such maintenance
visit or extend the time required for such maintenance visit or, in any event, at any time interfere with the use or operation of any Airframe or any Engine or with the normal conduct of Grantor’s business. 

  
 13 









 In addition to any inspection as provided hereunder, upon each request of Collateral Agent
to Grantor made not more than two times in a calendar year, Grantor will make available to Collateral Agent information with respect to the cycles and hours of operation of the Airframes and Engines and the status of the time controlled components
of the Engines. 
 If requested by Collateral Agent, Grantor shall provide the date (if then scheduled) upon which any Airframe
undergoes its next scheduled major check and, with respect to any Engine, the next scheduled off such Airframe maintenance, and shall advise Collateral Agent of the name and location (if then known) of the relevant maintenance performer. 

No liability or obligation will be incurred by Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, as the case may be, by reason of non-exercise
by it of the inspection rights referred to in this Section 3.7. Any viewing of any Aircraft by Collateral Agent, or any of its representatives, as the case may be, shall be for such Person’s information purposes only, and there shall be no
inference or implication therefrom that Grantor is in compliance with its obligations under the Indenture or this Agreement. 

Section 3.8 Additional Airframes and Engines. 
 So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Grantor shall have the right at its option at any time, on at least 30 days’ prior notice to Collateral Agent to, or otherwise if
required by any Secured Document as and when so required, Grantor shall, subject to the Lien of this Agreement, add one or more additional Airframes or Engines (“Additional Collateral”) as Collateral. In such event, immediately upon
the effectiveness thereof on the date set forth in such notice or when so required, and without further act, the Additional Collateral shall be subjected to the Lien created by this Agreement free and clear of Liens (other than Liens of First Lien
Agent). Upon the addition of any Additional Collateral, (a) Grantor, at its sole cost and expense, shall provide the following documents: (1) (i) a Security Agreement Supplement covering the Additional Collateral which shall have
been duly filed for recordation or otherwise duly made of record with the FAA and the International Registry and (ii) such Uniform Commercial Code financing statements as are deemed necessary or desirable by counsel for Collateral Agent to
perfect Collateral Agent’s Lien and security interests in the Additional Collateral; (2) satisfactory evidence as to the compliance with Section 3.3(k) hereof with respect to such Additional Collateral, as applicable; (3) an
opinion, satisfactory in form and substance to Collateral Agent, of counsel to Grantor to the effect that (x) the applicable Security Agreement Supplement constitutes an effective instrument for the subjection of the applicable Additional
Collateral, if any, to the Lien of this Agreement, all documents executed and delivered by Grantor in connection therewith have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Grantor and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of, and are
enforceable against, Grantor in accordance with their respective terms; and (B) an opinion of qualified FAA counsel, with a supporting priority search certificate, as to the registration with the International Registry referred to above and the
due recordation of the Security Agreement Supplement and all other documents or instruments with the FAA, the International Registry, or such other agency or registrar, the recordation of which is necessary to perfect and protect the rights of
Collateral Agent in the Additional Collateral; (4)(i) the applicable Additional Collateral shall be duly subjected to the Lien of this Agreement free and clear of Liens (other than Permitted Liens) and there shall have been registered with the
International Registry a sale to Grantor of such Additional Collateral and the International Interest for the benefit of Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the applicable Security Agreement Supplement, (ii) the applicable Additional
Collateral shall have been duly certified by the FAA as to type and airworthiness in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (iii) application for registration of the Additional Collateral in accordance with Section 3.3(a) shall
have been duly made with the FAA; and (5) an appraisal reasonably satisfactory to it with respect to the applicable Additional Collateral and (B) chain of title evidence for each Additional Collateral in form satisfactory to Collateral
Agent (which may include bills of sale or, in the absence of a bill of sale, an invoice listing the serial number for such 

  
 14 









 
Additional Collateral to the extent that it is an Engine, from the manufacturer of such Engine to Grantor), and (b) Grantor shall execute and deliver to Collateral Agent such other documents
and shall take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by Collateral Agent in connection with adding such Additional Collateral to the Lien of this Agreement. 
 Section 3.9 Permitted Foreign Transfers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Secured Document, any Aircraft may be operated by Grantor in and located in
foreign jurisdictions from time to time and, in connection therewith upon Grantor’s written request, made not less than 10 days in advance, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (i) the
deregistration of such Aircraft shall be permitted hereunder to the extent permitted by Section 10.03(e) of the Indenture and (ii) Collateral Agent will, at Grantor’s expense, make or cause to be made any filings at the request of
Grantor to cause Collateral Agent’s Lien in such Aircraft to be removed from the FAA registry; provided that the Lien in respect of such Aircraft shall only be released or unperfected to the extent the corresponding Credit Agreement
Liens are released or become unperfected, as applicable.
 SECTION 4. REMEDIES OF COLLATERAL AGENT UPON AN EVENT OF DEFAULT

 Section 4.1 Remedies with Respect to Collateral. (a) Remedies Available. Upon the occurrence of any
Event of Default and at any time thereafter so long as the same shall be continuing, this Agreement shall be in default, and Collateral Agent may, and upon the instruction of the Required Lenders shall, do one or more of the following but without
any duty to account to Grantor with respect to such action or inaction: (A) demand in writing that Grantor, at Grantor’s expense, deliver promptly, and Grantor shall deliver promptly, all or such part of any Airframe or any Engine or any
other Collateral to Collateral Agent or its designee or, Collateral Agent, at its option, may enter upon the premises where all or any part of any Airframe or any Engine or any other Collateral are located or are supposed to be located, search for
Collateral and take immediate possession of and remove the same by summary proceedings or otherwise, and without demand or notice or liability of any kind whatsoever; and/or (B) if at the time such action may be lawful and always subject to
compliance with any mandatory legal requirements, either with or without taking possession, and either before or after taking possession and without instituting any legal proceedings whatsoever, and having first given notice of such sale in
accordance with the Security Agreement to Grantor at least 10 days prior to the date of such sale, and any other notice which may be required by Law, sell and dispose of the Collateral, or any part thereof, or interest therein, free and clear of any
rights or claims of Grantor, at public auction or private sale, in one lot as an entirety or in separate lots, and either for cash or on credit and on such terms as Collateral Agent may determine, and at any place (whether or not it be the location
of the Collateral or any part thereof) and time designated in the notice above referred to. Any such sale may be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale, or for any such adjourned sale, without
further notice, and Collateral Agent or a Secured Party may bid and become the purchaser at any such sale and each Secured Party shall be entitled at any sale to credit against any purchase price bid at such sale by such Secured Party all or any
part of any unpaid Secured Obligation owing to such Secured Party secured by the Lien of this Agreement; (C) hold, use, operate, lease to others or keep idle all or any part of such Airframe or such Engine as Collateral Agent, in its sole
discretion, may determine, all free and clear of any rights or claims of Grantor; and/or (D) exercise any or all of other rights and powers and pursue any and all other remedies accorded to a secured party under Applicable Law or the Cape Town
Convention, including to recover judgment in its own name as Collateral Agent against the Collateral and to take possession of all or any part of the Collateral, to exclude Grantor and all Persons claiming under it wholly or partly therefrom, and
including to exercise any other remedy of a secured party under the Code (whether or not in effect in the jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought). 

  
 15 









 If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Collateral Agent may, in its
sole discretion, from time to time, at the expense of Grantor, make all such expenditures for maintenance, insurance, repairs, replacements, alterations, additions and improvements to and of the Collateral, as it may deem proper. In each such case,
Collateral Agent shall have the right to maintain, use, operate, store, lease, control or manage the Collateral and to exercise all rights and powers of Grantor relating to the Collateral in connection therewith, as Collateral Agent shall deem
appropriate, including the right to enter into any and all such agreements with respect to the maintenance, insurance, use, operation, storage, leasing, control, management or disposition of the Collateral or any part thereof as Collateral Agent may
determine; and Collateral Agent shall be entitled to collect and receive directly all tolls, rents, revenues, issues, income, products and profits of the Collateral and every part thereof. Such tolls, rents, revenues, issues, income, products and
profits shall be applied to pay the expenses of use, operation, storage, leasing, control, management or disposition of the Collateral, and of all maintenance, repairs, replacements, alterations, additions and improvements, and to make all payments
which Collateral Agent may be required or may elect, to make, if any, for Taxes, insurance or other proper charges assessed against or otherwise imposed upon the Collateral or any part thereof (including the employment of engineers and accountants
to examine, inspect and make reports upon the properties and books and records of Grantor at the employment of one or more Persons to remarket the Collateral for sale or lease or to otherwise manage the Collateral), and all other payments which
Collateral Agent may be required or authorized to make under any provision of this Agreement, as well as just and reasonable compensation for the services of Collateral Agent, and of all Persons engaged or employed by Collateral Agent. 

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at the request of Collateral Agent, Grantor shall promptly execute and
deliver to Collateral Agent such instruments of title and other documents as Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to enable Collateral Agent or an agent or representative designated by Collateral Agent, at such time or times and place or
places as Collateral Agent may specify, to obtain possession of all or any part of the Collateral to which Collateral Agent shall at the time be entitled hereunder, to change the registration of any Aircraft, to deregister any Aircraft or otherwise
to facilitate the exercise of the above-mentioned rights and remedies. Without limiting the foregoing, upon Collateral Agent’s request, Grantor shall execute and deliver to Collateral Agent an Irrevocable De-Registration and Export Request
Authorization (“IDERA”), the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B, for any Aircraft, and Collateral Agent may use or otherwise file, record, and/or register such IDERA as it may elect during the existence of an
Event of Default, provided that Collateral Agent shall give 3 days written notice to Grantor prior to using or otherwise filing, recording, and/or registering such IDERA. If Grantor shall for any reason fail to execute and deliver such instruments
and documents after such request by Collateral Agent, Collateral Agent may obtain a judgment conferring on Collateral Agent the right to immediate possession and requiring Grantor to execute and deliver such instruments and documents to Collateral
Agent, to the entry of which judgment Grantor hereby specifically consents to the fullest extent it may lawfully do so. 

Nothing in the foregoing shall affect the right of Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to receive all amounts owing to such Secured
Party as and when the same may be due. 
 The Collateral Agent shall exercise rights and remedies and sell the Collateral under
this Agreement only at the direction of the holders of a majority in the aggregate principal amount of the Secured Obligations outstanding at the time of such action delivered in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Indenture, including
without limitation, after such holders have provided indemnity and security satisfactory to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent for any losses, liabilities and expenses that may be incurred in connection therewith; provided that if the
Collateral Agent shall not have received appropriate instructions within 10 days of a request from the applicable Secured Parties (or such shorter period as reasonably may be specified in such request or as may be necessary under the circumstances),
it may, but shall be under no duty to take or refrain from taking such action as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Secured Parties and the Collateral Agent shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction. 


  
 16 









 (b) Collateral Agent may proceed to protect and enforce this Agreement by suit or suits or
proceedings in equity, at law or in bankruptcy, and whether for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement herein contained or in execution or aid of any power herein granted; or for foreclosure hereunder, or for the appointment of a
receiver or receivers for the Collateral or any part thereof, or for the recovery of judgment for the indebtedness secured by the Lien created under this Agreement or for the enforcement of any other proper, legal or equitable remedy available under
applicable law. 
 (c) Any proceeds received by Collateral Agent after the occurrence of an Event of Default shall be applied by
Collateral Agent in accordance with Section 27 of the Security Agreement. 
 Section 4.2 Remedies Cumulative.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each and every right, power and remedy herein specifically given to Collateral Agent or otherwise in this Agreement shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other right, power and
remedy herein specifically given or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, by statute or by the Notes Documents, and each and every right, power and remedy whether specifically herein given or otherwise existing may be exercised from time to
time and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by Collateral Agent, and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of any power or remedy shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right to exercise at the same time or
thereafter any other right, power or remedy. No delay or omission by Collateral Agent in the exercise of any right, remedy or power or in the pursuit of any remedy shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, impair any such right, power or
remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any default on the part of Grantor or to be an acquiescence therein. 

Section 4.3 Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case Collateral Agent shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any
right, power or remedy under this Agreement by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to Collateral Agent, then and in every such case
Grantor and Collateral Agent shall, subject to any determination in such proceedings, be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral, and all rights, remedies and powers of Collateral Agent shall continue,
as if no such proceedings had been undertaken (but otherwise without prejudice). 
 Section 4.4 Intentionally
Omitted. 
 Section 4.5 Further Assurances. Grantor, at its own cost and expense, shall take all such actions as
Collateral Agent from time to time may request in its reasonable discretion, so as to ensure that Collateral Agent has or obtains the fullest benefit, protection, and advantages under the Cape Town Convention. The parties hereto agree with respect
to such matters, as follows: 
 (a) In this Agreement, the Convention and the Aircraft Protocol shall be read and interpreted
together as a single instrument as required by Article 6(1) of the Cape Town Convention. In this Section 4.5 the following expressions have the respective meanings set forth in Article 1 of the Convention:

international interest, 
 (vi) registry authority, 
 (vii) security agreement, 
 (viii) State of registry, 

(b) Grantor, as grantor, and Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as secured party, agree that:

accordingly, an aircraft object, to which this Agreement relates for the purposes of the Cape Town Convention, and each Aircraft has the model, manufacturer’s serial number, and, as of the date hereof, U.S. registration mark specified on Annex
A for such Aircraft; 
 (ii) the International Interest of Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as secured
party, as a creditor and chargee under a security agreement, in each of the Airframes and the Engines, shall promptly following the execution and delivery of this Agreement (and thereafter, promptly following the execution and delivery of a Security
Agreement Supplement) be registered, with the consent of Grantor, as grantor, and of Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as secured party, as an International Interest under the Cape Town Convention in each of the Airframes and
the Engines and each such registration may be amended or extended prior to its expiry by Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as secured party, alone, consent of Grantor being deemed given hereby;

Aircraft Protocol in connection with a proposal to procure the de-registration and export of any Aircraft without a court order. Grantor expressly agrees to permit Collateral Agent to obtain from any applicable court, pending final


  
 18 









 
determination of any claim resulting from an Event of Default hereunder, speedy relief in the form of any of the orders specified in Article 13 of the Convention and Article X of the Aircraft
Protocol as Collateral Agent shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion, subject to any procedural requirements prescribed by Applicable Laws. 
 (vii) Grantor shall cooperate with Collateral Agent, as secured party, at Grantor’s expense with respect to effecting registration pursuant to the Cape Town Convention of any agreement related to the
ranking of priority between the various International Interests and/or the interests of Grantor, as grantor, Collateral Agent, as secured party, save that the Lien of Collateral Agent ranks prior to all other interests. 

(c) Except to the extent expressly provided herein, any terms of this Agreement or the other Secured Documents which expressly
incorporate any provisions of the Cape Town Convention shall prevail in the case of any conflict with any other provision contained herein. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that for purposes of the Cape Town Convention (to the

Indenture and the Security Agreement provided on behalf of the Secured Parties and not in its individual capacity. Each reference herein to any right granted to, benefit conferred upon or power exercisable by the “Collateral Agent” shall
be a reference to Collateral Agent, for the benefit of each of the Secured Parties. Sections 13 and 28 of the Security Agreement and Section 10.11 of the Indenture are incorporated herein, mutatis mutandis, as if a part hereof.
Wilmington Trust, National Association is entering into this Agreement not in its individual capacity, but solely in its capacity as

collateral agent under the Indenture, and shall not be personally liable hereunder in its individual capacity, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the performance of its
duties and obligations hereunder, Wilmington Trust, National Association shall be entitled to all of the rights, privileges and immunities afforded it in the Indenture.

reasonable time after the date hereof, Grantor’s applicable Contracts of Sale shall be registered and searchable in the International Registry, but subordinate to the registration of the International Interest created by this Agreement. Grantor
shall not register any prospective or current International Interest or Contract of Sale (or any amendment, modification, supplement, subordination of subrogation thereof) with the International Registry (other than with respect to the Credit
Facilities) except as permitted by this Agreement or each other Secured Document, Grantor shall not execute or deliver any IDERA to any party other than Collateral Agent unless Collateral Agent agrees in writing or as otherwise permitted by this
Agreement or each other Secured Document. Grantor further represents and confirms it is situated in a Contracting State (as that term is used in the Convention) as contemplated under the Cape Town Convention, and Grantor has the power to dispose of
the Collateral, as contemplated by the Cape Town Convention. 
 (b) The parties hereto agree that for the purposes of the
definition of Prospective International Interest in the Cape Town Convention, the purchase of the Notes under the Indenture shall constitute the stated event upon which Grantor has created or provided for an International Interest in the Aircraft
Objects (as such term is defined in the Cape Town Convention). In addition, without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, Grantor agrees that a Prospective International Interest registration shall be made on the International
Registry with respect to each Engine, regardless of whether it is installed on an Airframe. 
 Section 5.18 Security
Agreement; Indenture. The provisions of this Agreement are supplemental to the provisions of the Security Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved between Section 3.9
