 TO HAVE AND TO HOLD all and singular the Collateral unto Agent, its permitted successors and assigns, forever, upon the terms
and trusts herein set forth, for the benefit, security and protection of Agent, for the benefit of the Lender Group and the Bank Product Providers, and for the uses and purposes and subject to the terms and provisions set forth in this Security
Agreement. 
 Grantor agrees that, in the event Grantor, pursuant to any Senior Note Document, takes any action to grant or
perfect a Lien in favor of the Notes Collateral Agent in any assets (other than Second Lien Escrow Collateral (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement)), such Grantor shall also take such action to grant or perfect a Lien in favor of Agent to

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 Agent may deem to be necessary or advisable in the premises as fully as Grantor itself could do; provided that 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 and any mandatory requirements of applicable law, Agent shall have the right 

  
 4 








 
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 Agent may reasonably deem necessary or appropriate to protect and preserve the right, title and interest of 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 Agent, Grantor will, at its cost and expense, promptly and duly execute and deliver or cause to be duly executed and
delivered any and all such further instruments and documents (including legal opinions reasonably requested by 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 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
Credit Agreement and the other Loan 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 Credit Agreement and the
other Loan 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 Security 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 Agent and Notes Collateral 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 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 Security Agreement Grantor
shall furnish an opinion of qualified FAA counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, that (i) this Security Agreement is in recordable form, (ii) this Security Agreement has been filed for recordation with the FAA in
accordance with the Federal Aviation Act and creates a duly perfected first priority security interest in favor of Agent, for the benefit of the Lender Group and the Bank Product Providers, in the portion of the Collateral for which a security
interest can be perfected by such filing with the FAA in favor of 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


  
 5 








 
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 Agent a “priority search certificate” from the
International Registry confirming the foregoing), and covering such other matters as Agent shall reasonably request. Promptly after this Agreement has been recorded by the FAA, Grantor shall deliver to Agent an opinion of such counsel, in form and
substance reasonably acceptable to Agent, as to the due recordation thereof by the FAA. 
 Section 3.2 Possession.

 Except as expressly permitted in Section 3.9, 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, without
the prior consent of Agent, which consent may be withheld in its sole discretion, 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, without the prior consent of Agent: 
 (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 Security 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 Security 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 Security Agreement; 

  
 6 








 (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, provided that any such installation (so long as the same
shall be continuing) shall be deemed an Event of Loss with respect to such Engine and Grantor shall comply with Section 3.4(h) hereof; 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 (it being understood that nothing in this clause
(f) shall relieve Grantor from its obligations under Section 3.4(a) if such transfer becomes an Event of Loss), in which event Grantor shall promptly notify Agent in writing of any such transfer of possession; 

provided that (1) the rights of any transferee who receives possession by reason of a transfer permitted
by this Section 3.2 (other than by a transfer of an Engine which is deemed an Event of Loss) shall be subject and subordinate to all the terms of this Security 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 Security Agreement and all of the terms and conditions of this Security Agreement, the
other applicable Loan Documents, and the Bank Product Agreements 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,
in the reasonable opinion of any Lender, result in any risk of adverse tax consequences to such Lender, Grantor shall, prior to entering into the same, provide an indemnity satisfactory in form and substance to such Lender against any such adverse
tax consequences; (5) Grantor shall provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to Agent and each Lender that the insurance required by Section 3.3(k) remains in effect and for the purpose of Agent’s and the Lenders’ 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 Agent and each Lender, 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 Security Agreement upon the Airframe and Engines; and (7) Grantor
shall reimburse Agent and each Lender, 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 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 Security Agreement has been discharged, Grantor shall also cause this Security Agreement to be
duly recorded and at all times maintained of record on such registries as a first-priority perfected mortgage on each Aircraft, each Airframe, and each of the Engines, except as expressly permitted in Section 3.9. 

(b) Intentionally Omitted. 

  
 7 








 (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 

Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, 
 as 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). 

(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 Security Agreement thereupon, any risk of criminal liability or any material risk of civil liability against Agent, any other member of the Lender Group, or any Bank Product Provider, 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 Government 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 Agent, in at least the same amounts as would be covered by such insurance. 
 (f) Information for Filings. Grantor shall promptly furnish to Agent such information that is under its control or to which it has reasonable access as may be required to enable Agent, any member
of the Lender Group, or any Bank Product Provider timely to file any reports required to be filed by it with any Governmental Authority because of, or in connection with, the interest of Agent, such member of the Lender Group, or such Bank Product
Provider in the Aircraft, Airframes, Engines, Rotors, Rotor Blades, or any other part of the Collateral. 
 (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 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) or if an Airframe or an Engine to which a Part relates has suffered an Event of Loss, 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 Security 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 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 Security 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. 

  
 9 








 (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 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 Security Agreement thereupon, any material risk of civil penalty or any risk of criminal liability being imposed on Agent, any other member of the Lender Group, or any Bank Product Provider. 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 Security 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 Security 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 Security
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 Agent and such Part shall no longer be deemed a Part hereunder. 

(k) Insurance. 
 (i) General Requirements

 (ii) Additional Insureds, Etc. 
 All insurance policies required hereunder shall

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

(iv) Application of Insurance Proceeds. 
 Subject to Section 3.4(g), as between Agent and Grantor, any payments received under policies of hull or other property insurance required to be maintained by Grantor pursuant to
Section 3.3(k)(i) and any payments received in respect of any condemnation awards, shall be applied as follows: 
 (A) in respect of any property damage or loss not constituting an Event of Loss, such payments shall be paid over to and held in a deposit account for which Agent is the depository bank or that is subject
to a Control Agreement in favor of Agent, and shall be applied to pay (or to reimburse Grantor) for repairs or for replacement property effected or obtained in accordance with Sections 3.3(g) and (h), and any balance remaining after such repairs or
replacement with respect to such damage or loss shall be paid over to Agent, and applied by Agent in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in Section 2.4(b) of the Credit Agreement; 

(B) in respect of any property damage or loss constituting an Event of Loss, for which Grantor does not elect, pursuant to
Section 3.4(a)(i), to provide a Replacement Airframe (together with the same number of Replacement Engines as the number of Engines, if any, which were subject to such Event of Loss), such payments shall be paid over to Agent, and applied by
Agent in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in Section 2.4(b) of the Credit Agreement; 

(C) in respect of any property damage or loss constituting an Event of Loss, for which Grantor does elect, pursuant to
Section 3.4(a)(i), to provide a Replacement Airframe (together with the same number of Replacement Engines as the number of Engines, if any, which were subject to such Event of Loss), such payments shall be paid over to and held in a deposit
account for which Agent is the depository bank or that is subject to a Control Agreement in favor of Agent, and shall be applied to pay (or to reimburse Grantor) for such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, and any remaining amounts shall
be paid over to Agent, and applied by Agent in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in Section 2.4(b) of the Credit Agreement; 
 (v) Reports, etc. 
 Grantor will furnish to 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 Agent, stating the opinion of such firm that all premiums in connection with the insurance then due have been paid and the
insurance 

  
 12 









 
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 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 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 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 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. 
 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 Agent, any other member of the Lender Group, any Bank Product Provider 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 Agent, the Lenders 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 Security Agreement and to maintain such coverage, as Agent, the Lenders or
the other Additional Insureds may require, until the scheduled expiry date of such insurance and, in such event, Grantor shall, upon demand, reimburse Agent, the Lenders and the other Additional Insureds for amounts so paid by them. 

(l) Holding Out. 
 Grantor agrees that it and the other Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries will not at any time represent or hold out any Lender, any Bank Product Provider or Agent or any Affiliate of any of
them (and will use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that no Lender, no Bank Product Provider, Agent, or any Affiliate of any of them 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 Agent, any Lender, or any Bank Product Provider 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.

Grantor shall, within 60 days after such occurrence, give Agent written notice of its election to perform one of the following options (it being agreed that if Grantor shall not have given Agent such notice of such election, Grantor shall be deemed
to have elected to perform the option identified in the following clause (ii)): 
 (i) subject to the satisfaction of the
conditions contained in Section 3.4(d), on a date not more than 12 months (for any Sikorsky S64 aircraft) or 90 days (for any other aircraft) after the occurrence of the Event of Loss (or, if earlier, the Maturity Date), cause to be subjected
to the Lien of this Security Agreement a Replacement Airframe (together with the same number of Replacement Engines as the number of Engines, if any, which were subject to such Event of Loss), such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines to be
free and clear of all Liens except Permitted Liens and to have a remaining useful life, estimated residual value, value and utility at least equal to the Airframe and Engines, if any, so replaced (assuming such Airframe and Engines were in the
condition and repair required by the terms hereof) and to be an airframe that is the same model and same or later vintage as the Airframe to be replaced thereby, or an improved model; provided that, if Grantor shall not perform its obligation
to effect such replacement under this clause (i) during the 12-month or 90-day period of time, as applicable, provided herein (or, if earlier, the Maturity Date), it shall give Agent notice to such effect upon or before the expiration of such
period of time and shall promptly pay on the thirtieth (30th) day after the date of such notice to Agent (or, if earlier, the Maturity Date), in immediately available funds, the amount specified in clause (ii) below; or 

(ii) pay or cause to be paid to Agent, in immediately available funds, on a date specified at least 30 days in advance by Grantor not
later than the earlier to occur of 90 days after the occurrence of the Event of Loss or 3 days following receipt of insurance proceeds in respect of such Event of Loss, an amount equal to the most recently determined appraised value of such

 Anything in this Section 3.4(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, any payments received under any insurance policies
shall, within 3 days of receipt thereof, be applied in accordance with Section 3.3(k)(iv). 
 (b) Effect of
Replacement. 
 Should Grantor have (i) provided a Replacement Airframe (together with the same number of Replacement
Engines as the number of Engines, if any, which were subject to the Event of Loss) as provided for in Section 3.4(a)(i), (A) this Security Agreement shall continue with respect to such Replacement Airframe (together with the same such
Replacement Engines and any remaining Engines not subject to such Event of Loss) as though no Event of Loss had occurred; (B) Agent shall, at the expense of Grantor, release from the Lien of this Security Agreement the replaced Airframe and the
replaced Engine or Engines, if any, installed on the Airframe upon the occurrence of the Event of Loss and subject thereto by executing and delivering to Grantor such documents and instruments as Grantor may reasonably request to evidence such
release (and Agent shall discharge or consent to the discharge of the registration of the International Interest in such replaced Airframe and replaced Engine or replaced Engines vested in Agent pursuant to this Security Agreement); and
(C) Grantor shall be entitled to receive all insurance proceeds and proceeds from any award in respect of condemnation, confiscation, seizure or requisition, including any investment interest thereon, to the extent not previously applied to the
purchase price of the Replacement Aircraft as provided in Sections 3.3(k)(iv)(C) and 3.4(e)(i), and (ii) paid the most recently determined appraised value of such Aircraft, Agent shall, at the expense of Grantor, release from the Lien of this
Security Agreement any Airframe and any Engine that Grantor sells, transfers, or 

  
 14 









 
otherwise assigns to a third party (including any transfer of such Airframe and any such Engines to insurers in consideration of such insurers’ payment of all or a portion of the most
recently determined appraised value of the Aircraft under policies of hull or other property insurance required to be maintained by Grantor pursuant to Section 3.3(k(i)) and that is installed on such Airframe upon the occurrence of the Event of
Loss and subject thereto by executing and delivering to Grantor such documents and instruments as Grantor may reasonably request to evidence such release (and Agent shall discharge or consent to the discharge of the registration of the International
Interest in such Airframe and Engine or Engines vested in Agent pursuant to this Security Agreement). 
 (c) Effect of
Payment. 
 In the event of the payment in full of the Secured Obligations, (i) this Security Agreement and the
obligations of Grantor hereunder shall terminate, (ii) any remaining insurance proceeds, including any investment interest thereon, shall be promptly paid over to Grantor; and (iii) Agent, at the expense of Grantor, shall release from the
Lien of this Security Agreement the Airframe or Airframes and the Engine or Engines, if any, installed on such Airframe upon the occurrence of the Event of Loss by executing and delivering to Grantor such releases and other documents and instruments
as Grantor may reasonably request to evidence such release (and Agent shall discharge or consent to the discharge of the registration of the International Interest in such Airframe and Engine or Engines vested in Agent pursuant to this Security
Agreement). 
 (d) Conditions to Airframe Replacement. 

Grantor’s right to substitute a Replacement Airframe (and Replacement Engines, if applicable) as provided in Section 3.4(a)(i)
shall be subject to the fulfillment, at Grantor’s sole cost and expense, in addition to the conditions contained in such Section 3.4(a)(i), of the following conditions precedent:

 (C) an Officer’s Certificate of Grantor certifying that (i) the Replacement
Airframe (and Replacement Engines, if applicable) is an aircraft of the same or a more advanced model, is in as good operating condition as, and has a value, remaining useful life, estimated residual value and utility at least equal to, the Airframe
(and Replacement Engines, if applicable) it replaces, assuming such Airframe (and Replacement Engines, if applicable) had been 

  
 15 









 
maintained in the condition required hereunder, and (ii) in the event the Event of Loss occurs after the third anniversary of the date that such Airframe becomes subject to Agent’s Lien

 (e) Non-Insurance Payments Received on Account of an Event of Loss. 

As between Agent and Grantor, any payments on account of an Event of Loss (other than insurance proceeds, condemnation awards, or other
payments the application of which is provided for in this Section 3.4, or elsewhere in this Security Agreement, as the case may be, or payments in respect of damage to the business or property of Grantor) with respect to any Aircraft, any
Engine, any Rotor Blade, any Rotor, or any Part received at any time by Agent or by Grantor from any governmental authority or other Person will be applied as follows: 
 (i) in respect of any property damage or loss constituting an Event of Loss, for which Grantor does not elect, pursuant to Section 3.4(a)(i), to provide a Replacement Airframe (together with the same
number of Replacement Engines as the number of Engines, if any, which were subject to such Event of Loss), such payments shall be paid over to Agent and applied by Agent in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in Section 2.4(b) of
the Credit Agreement; and 
 (ii) in respect of any property damage or loss constituting an Event of Loss, for which Grantor
does elect, pursuant to Section 3.4(a)(i), to provide a Replacement Airframe (together with the same number of Replacement Engines as the number of Engines, if any, which were subject to such Event of Loss), such payments shall be paid over to
and held in an account for which Agent is the depository bank or that is subject to a Control Agreement in favor of Agent, and shall be applied to pay (or to reimburse Grantor) for such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, and any remaining
amounts shall be applied in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in Section 2.4(b) of the Credit Agreement. 

(f) Requisition for Use. 
 In the event of a requisition for use by any government of the Airframes and the Engines, if any, or engines installed on any Airframe, Grantor shall promptly notify Agent of such requisition and, if the
same does not constitute an Event of Loss, all of Grantor’s obligations under this Security Agreement shall continue to the same extent as if such requisition had not occurred except to the extent that the performance or observance of any
obligation by Grantor shall have been prevented or delayed by such requisition, provided that Grantor’s obligations for the payment of money and under Section 3.3(k) (except, in the case of Section 3.3(k), while an assumption

respect to the use of such Airframe or Engines shall be paid over to, or retained by, Grantor; provided that, if such requisition constitutes an Event of Loss, then all of such payments shall be paid over to Agent (so long as the Lien of this
Security Agreement has not been duly discharged), and held and applied as provided in Section 3.4(e). In the event of an Event of Loss of an Engine resulting from the requisition for use by a government of such Engine (but not the Airframes (or
any of them)), Grantor will replace such Engine hereunder by complying with the terms of Section 3.4(h) and any payments received by Agent or Grantor from such government with respect to such requisition shall be paid over to, or retained by,
Grantor. 
 (g) Certain Payments to be Held As Security. 

Any amount referred to in this Section 3.4 or Section 3.3(k) hereof which is payable to Grantor shall not be paid to Grantor,
or, if it has been previously paid directly to Grantor, shall not be 

  
 17 









 
retained by Grantor, if at the time of such payment a payment Default or any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, but shall be paid to and held by Agent as security for the
Secured Obligations, unless and until applied by Agent to the Secured Obligations and at such time as there shall not be continuing any such payment Default or Event of Default, such amount and any gain realized as a result of Permitted Investments
required to be made pursuant to Section 3.8 shall to the extent not so applied be paid over to Grantor. 
 (h)
Substitution of 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 Agent, to subject to the Lien of this Security Agreement, and if an Event of Loss shall have occurred with respect to an Engine under circumstances in which there has not
occurred an Event of Loss with respect to any Airframe, shall within 60 days of the occurrence of such Event of Loss and on at least five (5) Business Days’ prior notice to Agent shall subject to the Lien of this Security Agreement, a

Interest for the benefit of Agent under this Security Agreement and the Security Agreement Supplement referred to in clause (i)(A) below, (ii) the replaced Engine shall, at the expense and request of Grantor, be released from the Lien of this
Security Agreement and shall no longer be deemed an Engine hereunder, and (iii) such Replacement Engine shall be deemed part of the Aircraft for all purposes hereof to the same extent as the Engine originally installed on or attached to such
Airframe. Upon the substitution of a Replacement Engine, the following conditions shall be satisfied at Grantor’s sole cost and expense and the parties agree to cooperate with Grantor to the extent necessary to enable it to timely satisfy such
conditions: 
 (i) the following documents shall be duly authorized, executed and delivered by the respective party or parties
thereto, and an executed counterpart of each shall be delivered to Agent: 
 (A) a Security Agreement Supplement
covering the Replacement Engine, which shall have been duly filed for recordation with the FAA and made of record with the International Registry; 
 (B) such Uniform Commercial Code financing statements as are deemed necessary or desirable by counsel for the Agent to protect Agent’s interests in the Replacement Engine; 

(C) an Officer’s Certificate of Grantor certifying that (i) in the case of a voluntary replacement only, no
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (ii) (x) in the case of a voluntary replacement, the Replacement Engine has at least the same number of hours or cycles (whichever is applicable) of operation on such Replacement
Engine remaining until the next scheduled life limited part replacement as the Engine it replaces, assuming such Engine had been maintained in the condition required hereunder; or (y) in the case of a mandatory replacement, Grantor has not
discriminated in its selection of the Replacement Engine (based on the financed status of such Aircraft); 
 (D)
an opinion of qualified FAA counsel, with a supporting priority search certificate, as to the registrations with the International Registry referred to above and the due 

  
 18 









 
recordation of the Security Agreement Supplement and all other documents or instruments the recordation with the FAA, the International Registry, or other registrar or agency, of which is
necessary to perfect and protect the rights of Agent in the Replacement Engine; 
 (E) to the extent that an
engine warranty in respect of such Replacement Engine is available to Grantor, an engine warranty assignment covering such Replacement Engine and a consent to such engine warranty assignment in such form and substance satisfactory to Agent;

of sale or, in the absence of a bill of sale, an invoice listing the serial number for such Replacement Engine, from the manufacturer of such Engine to Grantor); and 

(G) evidence that the insurance requirements of Section 3.3(k) with respect to an Engine are satisfied and that the
insurance covering such Replacement Engine shall be of the type usually carried by Grantor with respect to similar engines, and covering risks of the kind customarily insured against by Grantor; and 

(ii) Grantor shall furnish (or cause to be furnished to) Agent, for the benefit of the Lender Group and the Bank Product Providers, with
an opinion, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Agent, of Grantor’s counsel to the effect that such documents reasonably requested by Agent or the Lenders are sufficient to subject such Replacement Engine to the Lien of this
Security Agreement. 
 Upon satisfaction of all conditions to such substitution, (x) Agent shall, at the expense of
Grantor, execute and deliver to Grantor such documents and instruments as Grantor shall reasonably request to release of the replaced Engine from the Lien of this Security Agreement (and Agent shall discharge or consent to the discharge of the
registration of the International Interest in such replaced Engine vested in Agent pursuant to this Security Agreement), and (y) Grantor shall be entitled to receive all insurance proceeds and proceeds in respect of any Event of Loss giving
rise to such replacement to the extent not previously applied to the purchase price of the Replacement Engine as provided in Sections 3.3(k)(iv)(A) and 3.4(e)(ii). 
 Section 3.5 Agreement Regarding Engines. 
 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 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. 
 Agent, on behalf of the Lender Group and Bank Product Providers, 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 Security Agreement and the Credit Agreement shall not be interrupted by Agent, the other members of the Lender Group, or any Bank Product Provider (or any Person lawfully claiming
through Agent, the other members of the Lender Group, or the Bank Product Providers). 

  
 19 









 Section 3.7 Inspection. 

At all reasonable times and intervals as 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, 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 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 Agent or the Lenders 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. 
 In addition to any inspection as provided hereunder, upon each request of Agent to Grantor made not
more than two times in a calendar year, Grantor will make available to Agent or such Lender 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 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 Agent and such Lender of the name and location (if then known) of the relevant maintenance performer. 

No liability or obligation will be incurred by Agent or any Lender, 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 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 Credit Agreement or this Security 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 Agent to, or otherwise if required by any Loan Document as and when so required, Grantor shall, subject to the Lien of this Agreement 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 Notes Collateral Agent). Upon the addition of an Additional Collateral, (a) Grantor shall satisfy at its sole cost and expense all
requirements set forth in Section 3.4(d) of this Agreement relative to such Additional Collateral as if it were Replacement Airframes and Replacement Engines to the extent applicable and excluding Section 3.4(d)(ii)(C), and
(b) Grantor shall execute and deliver to Agent such other documents and shall take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by Agent in connection with adding such Additional Collateral to the Lien of this Agreement. 

  
 20 









 Section 3.9 Permitted Foreign Transfers. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein or in any other Loan 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) Agent shall permit the deregistration of such Aircraft to the extent the applicable foreign registration requirements prohibit registration in the
United States and (ii) Agent will, at Grantor’s expense, make or cause to be made any filings at the request of Grantor to cause Agent’s Lien in such Aircraft to be removed from the FAA registry so long as, immediately after giving
effect to consummation of the actions described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) (the “Determination Date”), the ratio of (a) the Appraised Value of all Aircraft owned by the Loan Parties as of the Determination
Date and subject to a first priority perfected security interest in favor of Agent to secure the Secured Obligations to (b) the Appraised Value of all Aircraft owned by the Loan Parties as of the Determination Date would be at least 0.85 to
1.00. For the purposes of this Section 3.9, “Appraised Value” shall mean, as of any Determination Date, with respect to any Aircraft owned by the Loan Parties as of such Determination Date, the current market value of such
Aircraft as determined in an “extended desktop” appraisal conducted by a firm reasonably satisfactory to Agent, that is maintenance adjusted, that was completed not more than 1 year prior to such Determination Date. For the avoidance of
doubt, such appraisal shall be conducted in accordance with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) or in accordance with other procedures acceptable to Agent. 

SECTION 4. REMEDIES OF 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 Security Agreement shall be in default, and 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 Agent or its designee or, 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 Guaranty and 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 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 Agent or a Lender may bid and become the purchaser at any such sale and each
Lender shall be entitled at any sale to credit against any purchase price bid at such sale by such Lender all or any part of any unpaid Secured Obligation owing to such Lender secured by the Lien of this Security Agreement; (C) hold, use,
operate, lease to others or keep idle all or any part of such Airframe or such Engine as 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 

  
 21 









 
Law or the Cape Town Convention, including to recover judgment in its own name as 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 UCC (whether or not in effect in the jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought). 

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, 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, 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 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 Agent may determine; and 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 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 Agent may be required or authorized to make under any provision of this Security Agreement, as well as just and
reasonable compensation for the services of Agent, and of all Persons engaged or employed by Agent. 
 If an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, at the request of Agent, Grantor shall promptly execute and deliver to Agent such instruments of title and other documents as Agent may deem necessary or advisable to enable Agent or an agent or representative
designated by Agent, at such time or times and place or places as Agent may specify, to obtain possession of all or any part of the Collateral to which 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 Agent’s request, Grantor shall execute and deliver to Agent an Irrevocable De-Registration and
Export Request Authorization (“IDERA”), the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B, for any Aircraft, and 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 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 Agent, Agent may obtain a judgment conferring on Agent the right to immediate possession and requiring Grantor to execute and deliver such instruments and documents to 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
Agent, any other member of the Lender Group or any Bank Product Provider to receive all amounts owing to such Lender as and when the same may be due. 
 (b) Agent may proceed to protect and enforce this Security 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 

  
 22 









 
thereof, or for the recovery of judgment for the indebtedness secured by the Lien created under this Security Agreement or for the enforcement of any other proper, legal or equitable remedy
available under applicable law. 
 (c) Any proceeds received by Agent after the occurrence of an Event of Default shall be
applied by Agent in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in Section 2.4(b) of the Credit 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 Agent or otherwise in this Security 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 Loan 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 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 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 Agent shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power or
remedy under this Security 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 Agent, then and in every such case Grantor and 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 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 Agent from time to time
may request in its reasonable discretion, so as to ensure that 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 Security 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:

(i) each Airframe of each Aircraft is an airframe and, accordingly, an aircraft object, and each Engine is an aircraft engine and,
accordingly, an aircraft object, to which this Security 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 Agent, for the benefit of the Lender Group and the Bank
Product Providers, 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 Agent, for the benefit of the Lender Group and the Bank Product Providers, 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 Agent, for the benefit of the Lender Group and the Bank Product Providers, as secured party, alone,
consent of Grantor being deemed given hereby; 
 (iii) for the purposes of Article 17(1) of the Convention each of the events
which constitutes an Event of Default is an event that constitute a default or otherwise give rise to the rights and remedies specified in Articles 12 to 15 and 20 of the Convention; 

(iv) Agent, for the benefit of the Lender Group and the Bank Product Providers, as secured party, shall have the remedies referred to in
Articles 15(1) and 20(1) of the Convention; 
 (v) for the purposes of Article 54 of the Convention and other provisions of the
Cape Town Convention which relate back to such Article, the courts sitting in the County of New York, New York or in Dublin, Ireland shall have exclusive jurisdiction in respect of any claims brought under the Cape Town Convention in accordance with
the provisions of Section 5.12 of this Security Agreement; 
 (vi) Agent may exercise, in addition to the remedies
under the Loan Documents, any other right or remedy which may be available to it as secured party under Applicable Law or under the Cape Town Convention, including, without limitation, all rights and remedies under Chapter III of the Convention and
Chapter II of the Aircraft Protocol. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, Grantor and Agent hereby agree that Agent shall not be required to provide notice to Grantor as set forth in Article IX(6) of the 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 Agent to obtain from any applicable court, pending final 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 Agent shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion, subject to any procedural requirements
prescribed by Applicable Laws. 
 (vii) Grantor shall cooperate with 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, Agent, as secured party, save that
the Lien of Agent ranks prior to all other interests.

Convention). Grantor acknowledges and agrees that Agent may exercise such of the remedies as set forth in Section 4.1 or in the other Loan Documents as it shall determine in its sole discretion and none of the remedies as set forth in
Section 4.1 or in the other Loan Documents is manifestly unreasonable. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, Grantor and Agent hereby agree that paragraph 2 of Article 13 of the Convention shall not apply to this Agreement or to the
exercise of any remedy by Agent under this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents or under the Cape Town Convention. Following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Grantor agrees that Agent may immediately discharge any registration made with
the International Registry in Grantor’s favor.

 Section 5.13
Amendments. This Security Agreement may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified only in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement. 
 Section 5.14 Limitation on Agent’s, the Other Members of the Lender Group’s, and the Bank Product Providers’ Duty in Respect of Collateral. Agent, the other members of the
Lender Group, and the Bank Product Providers shall use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in its possession or under its control. None of Agent, the other members of the Lender Group, and the Bank Product Providers shall have any other
duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of Agent, such other member of the Lender Group, or such Bank Product Provider, or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights
against prior or any other parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. 
 Section 5.15 Revival and Reinstatement of
Obligations. If the incurrence or payment of the Obligations by Grantor or any Guarantor or the transfer to Agent, any other member of the Lender Group, or any Bank Product Provider of any property should for any reason subsequently be declared
to be void or voidable under any state or federal law relating to creditors’ rights, including provisions of the Bankruptcy Code relating to fraudulent conveyances, preferences, or other voidable or recoverable payments of money or transfers of
property (each, a “Voidable Transfer”), and if Agent, any other member of the Lender Group, or any Bank Product Provider is required to repay or restore, in whole or in part, any such Voidable Transfer, or elects to do so upon the
reasonable advice of its counsel, then, as to any such Voidable Transfer, or the amount thereof that Agent, any other member of the Lender Group or any Bank Product Provider is required or elects to repay or restore, and as to all reasonable costs,
expenses, and attorneys fees of Agent, any other member of the Lender Group, or any Bank Product Provider related thereto, the liability of Grantor and each Guarantor automatically shall be revived, reinstated, and restored and shall exist as though
such Voidable Transfer had never been made. 
 Section 5.16 Concerning Agent. Agent acts hereunder solely as agent
as in the Credit Agreement provided on behalf of the Lender Group and Bank Product Providers and not in its individual capacity. Each reference herein to any right granted to, benefit conferred upon or power exercisable by the “Agent”
shall be a reference to Agent, for the benefit of each member of the Lender Group and each Bank Product Provider. 

Section 5.17 Additional Cape Town Convention Provisions. 

(a) Grantor agrees and acknowledges this Security Agreement creates and constitutes an International Interest in the Collateral. Grantor
hereby undertakes to perform all of its obligations hereunder and under any contracts or agreements constituting part of the Collateral. Grantor shall establish a valid and existing account with the International Registry, appoint an Administrator
and/or a Professional User acceptable to Agent to make registration in regards to the Collateral. On, or 

  
 29 









 
within a 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 Security 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 Senior Note Indebtedness) except as permitted by this Security Agreement or any other Loan Document, Grantor shall not execute or deliver any IDERA to any party other than Agent unless
Agent agrees in writing or as otherwise permitted by this Security Agreement or any other Loan 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 making of any extensions of credit under the Credit Agreement 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 Security 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 Credit Agreement. The provisions of this Security
Agreement are supplemental to the provisions of the Credit Agreement. In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved between the Eligible Aircraft and Eligible Inventory provisions of the Credit Agreement and this
Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement shall control and govern. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved between Section 3.9 hereof and the provisions of the Credit Agreement,
Section 3.9 shall control and govern.
