4. DELIVERY CONDITION AND INSPECTION OF AIRCRAFT

4.1      Lessee Selection of Aircraft

              IN ADDITION TO THE DISCLAIMERS IN CLAUSE 18, LESSEE REPRESENTS AND
              WARRANTS  TO LESSOR  THAT  LESSEE  HAS USED ITS OWN  JUDGEMENT  IN
              SELECTING  THE AIRCRAFT AND HAS DONE SO BASED ON ITS SIZE,  DESIGN
              AND  TYPE.   LESSEE   ACKNOWLEDGES   THAT   LESSOR  IS  NEITHER  A
              MANUFACTURER OF THE AIRCRAFT NOR A DEALER IN THE AIRCRAFT.

4.2      Condition at Delivery

              In addition to the  disclaimers  in Clause 18,  Lessor has advised
              Lessee that at Delivery the  Aircraft  will be  substantially  and
              materially in the condition set forth in Schedule 4, provided that
              this confirmation expires as at Delivery.

4.3      Lessee Inspection and Acceptance Flight

              Lessor will  arrange  with Prior Owner for Lessee to perform  such
              ground inspection of the Aircraft prior to the Scheduled  Delivery
              Date as is reasonable. Lessor will procure that Lessee may have up
              to two  (2)  observers  on  board  the  Aircraft  during  delivery
              acceptance flight from Prior Owner to Lessor.  Lessee acknowledges
              that,  as between it and Lessor,  in accepting  the Aircraft it is
              relying on its own  inspection  and  knowledge  of the Aircraft in
              determining whether it meets the requirements of this Agreement.

4.4      Delivery of Aircraft to Lessee

              Subject to Lessee having  complied with the  conditions set out in
              Clause 4.2, or the waiver  thereof by Lessor,  Lessor will deliver
              the Aircraft to Lessee at the Delivery Location. Provided that the
              Aircraft is in the  condition  required  by Clause  4.2,  upon the
              tender of the Aircraft by Lessor to Lessee, Lessee will accept the
              Aircraft and the date of tender by Lessor to Lessee will be deemed
              to be the  Delivery  Date for all purposes  under this  Agreement,
              including,  but not  limited  to,  the  commencement  of  Lessee's
              obligation to pay Rent hereunder. Lessee shall execute and deliver
              the Acceptance Certificate to Lessor on the Delivery Date.

4.5      Lessee's Failure to take Delivery

              If Lessee  fails to (i) comply with the  conditions  contained  in
              Clauses  3.1 so as to allow  Delivery to take place upon tender or
              (ii) take  delivery of the  Aircraft  when  properly  tendered for
              Delivery by Lessor in the  condition  required  hereunder,  Lessee
              will  indemnify  Lessor for all costs and  expenses,  directly  or
              indirectly, incurred by Lessor as a result thereof.

5. LEASE TERM

               Aircraft to Lessee under this Agreement, Lessee shall immediately
               redeliver  the  Aircraft  in  accordance  with  Clause 23 and the
               Expiry  Date shall be the date upon which the  Aircraft  has been

               Lessee to Lessor hereunder;

          (v)  If Clause 23.4 becomes  applicable,  the Expiry Date shall be the
               date when any non-compliance  referred to in Clause 23.4 has been
               fully rectified and Lessor shall have accepted  redelivery of the
               Aircraft and Lessee shall have complied with all its  obligations
               hereunder; and

               23 and the Return  Acceptance  Receipt has been duly executed and
               delivered by Lessor in accordance with that clause.

5.3      Survival of Certain Lessee Obligations

              and 21.7 and any other obligations of Lessee that were due to have
              been  performed  but have not been  fully  performed  prior to the
              termination  of the  Agreement  pursuant to this Clause 5.3,  will

              to the Aircraft and every part thereof.

5.4.2         If the Aircraft is lost, stolen,  confiscated,  damaged, destroyed

              Lessor  will  deliver  the  Aircraft  to  Lessee  at the  Delivery
              Location on or about the  Scheduled  Delivery  Date,  which is the
              date when Prior Owner shall deliver the Aircraft to Lessor. Lessor

              failure arises as a direct  consequence of the gross negligence or
              wilful  default of Lessor,  and in no event will  Lessor be liable
              for any delay or failure that is caused by any failure,  breach or
              delay on the part of Prior Owner.

6.2.2         If a delay,  not  caused by  Lessor's or  Lessee's  breach of this

              days after the Scheduled Delivery Date either party  will have the
              right to terminate  this  Agreement  by  giving  the  other  party
              written  notice  within ten (10) Business Days after such date and
              this Agreement will terminate  on  the date  of  receipt  of  such
              notice. In the event of such termination, neither party  will have
              any further obligation  or  liability  to  the  other  under  this
              Agreement,  except  that  Lessor  will  repay to Lessee under this
              Agreement  any  prepaid Rent the amount of  Security  Deposit,  if
              paid, and return the Letter of Credit. If  either party  does  not
              give notice of termination within such  ten  (10)  Business  Days,
              both parties lose all rights to terminate under this Clause 6.2.2,
              unless otherwise agreed by the parties.

              The first Basic Rent Period  shall  commence on the day  following
              Delivery and each  subsequent  Basic Rent Period shall commence on
              the  date  succeeding  the last day of the  previous  Rent  Period
              within the Lease  Term.  Each Basic Rent  Period  shall end on the

              on each Rent Date.  Lessee shall  initiate  payment  adequately in
              advance of each Rent Date to ensure  that Lessor  receives  credit
              for the  payment on such Rent Date.  If a Rent Date is a day which
              is not a Business  Day,  the Rent  payable in respect of that rent

              Lessee shall pay to Lessor a Security Deposit in the amount and at
              the times set forth in Schedule 2. The Security Deposit will serve
              as security for the performance by Lessee of its obligations under
              the Transaction Documents and the Other Agreements.

              Upon Lessor's receipt of the additional Security Deposit set forth
              in Clause 8.2 the  initial  deposit  set forth in this  Clause 8.1
              will be credited to the payment of Rent during the Lease Term.

8.2      Letter of Credit

              Lessee shall provide Lessor with an additional Security Deposit in

              and in the form and substance  acceptable by Lessor. The Letter of
              Credit will serve as security for the performance by Lessee of its
              obligations   under  the  Transaction   Documents  and  the  Other
              Agreements.

8.3      Lessor's Rights

8.3.1         If an Event of Default shall have  occurred and be continuing,  in
              addition to all rights and remedies  accorded  to Lessor elsewhere
              in  this  Agreement  or  under  applicable  law in  respect of the
              Security Deposit or Letter of Credit,  Lessor may immediately,  or
              at any time thereafter,  without prior notice to Lessee, apply all
              or  part of the Security Deposit or Letter of Credit in or towards
              the payment or discharge  of any matured obligation owed by Lessee
              under  the Transaction Documents or the Other Agreements,  in such
              order  as Lessor sees fit,  and/or exercise  any  of the rights of
              set-off  described  in  Clause 10.6  against  all  or  part of the
              Security Deposit or Letter of Credit.

8.3.2         If Lessor exercises the rights  described in Clause 8.3.1,  Lessee
              shall,  following  a demand in writing  from  Lessor,  immediately
              restore the Security  Deposit (if  applicable) or Letter of Credit
              to the level at which it stood immediately prior to such exercise.

8.3.3         Lessee  acknowledges  that Lessor may commingle all or any part of
              the Security  Deposit with its general  funds and that no interest
              shall  accrue  in favour of  Lessee  in  respect  of the  Security
              Deposit.

8.3.4         Lessor's  obligations in respect of return of the Security Deposit
              and  Letter of Credit  shall be those of debtor and not those of a
              trustee or other fiduciary.

9.3      Adjustment

              The amount payable by Lessee to the Maintenance  Reserves shall be

9.4      Release of Maintenance Reserves

              Lessor will reimburse Lessee from the actual Airframe  Maintenance

              rectification of any structural  deficiencies  resulting from such
              inspection  whenever such  inspections and  rectification  work is
              performed (provided that such inspection and rectification extends
              the available life of the Aircraft).  Work performed for all other
              causes is excluded from such reimbursement,  including the charges
              set forth in Clause 9.4.5 below.

              during such Engine Performance Restoration Visits consisted of the

              restoration,  with work  performed for all other causes  excluded,
              including   those   causes  set  forth  in  Clause   9.4.5  below.

              Maintenance Reserve applicable to such Engine.

9.4.3    Landing Gear Maintenance Reserves

              Lessor  will  reimburse   Lessee  from  the  actual  Landing  Gear
              Maintenance Reserves, if paid by Lessee,  provided that no Default
              has occurred  and is  continuing,  for the actual cost  associated
              with the completed Landing Gear Overhauls, with work performed for
              all other  causes  excluded,  including  those causes set forth in
              Clause 9.4.5.  Reimbursement  will be made up to the amount in the
              Landing Gear Maintenance  Reserve at the time for the Landing Gear

              completed APU performance restoration, with work performed for all
              other causes excluded,  including those causes set forth in Clause
              9.4.5  Reimbursement  will  be made  up to the  amount  in the APU

              restoration.

9.4.5    Exclusion

              Each of the  following  causes shall be excluded  from this Clause
              9.4:   accomplishment  of  Airworthiness   Directives  and  FAR's,
              accident, faulty maintenance or installation,  incident,  improper
              operations,  abuse,  neglect,  misuse,  optional parts replacement
              (where such  replacement  does not increase  operational  life) or
              work  covered  by  manufacturer's  service  bulletins  or which is
              reimbursed  by a  claim  under  manufacturer's  warranties  or  by
              insurance  (with  deductibles  being  treated as  reimbursable  by
              insurance for this exclusion).

9.4.6    Remaining balance

              For the avoidance of doubt,  Lessee has no right to payment of any
              amount from the  Maintenance  Reserves  not paid in cash by Lessee
              and,  subject  to  Clause  9.6,  any  remaining  balances  of  the
              Maintenance  Reserves on the Expiry Date, after application of the
              foregoing  provisions,  shall be  retained  by  Lessor as its sole
              property.

9.5      Costs in Excess of Maintenance Reserves

              Lessee will be  responsible  for payment of all costs in excess of
              the amounts reimbursed  hereunder.  If on any occasion the balance
              in the  relevant  Reserve is  insufficient  to satisfy a claim for
              reimbursement in respect of the Airframe,  an Engine,  the Landing
              Gears or the APU,  as the case may be,  the  shortfall  may not be
              carried  forward  or made the  subject  of any  further  claim for
              reimbursement.

9.6      Reimbursement after Expiry Date

              Lessee may not  submit  any  invoice  for  reimbursement  from the
              Maintenance  Reserves  after the Expiry Date unless on or prior to
              such  date  Lessee  has  notified  Lessor  in  writing  that  such
              outstanding  invoice will be  submitted  after the Expiry Date and
              the  anticipated  amount of such  invoice.  So long as Lessee  has
              provided  such  notice to  Lessor,  Lessee  may then  submit  such
              outstanding  invoice at any time within three (3) months after the
              Expiry  Date;  provided,  however,  if  Lessee  contests  any such
              invoice  and  provides  Lessor  with  notice of such  contest  and
              periodic  updates of the  progress of such  contest,  the time for
              submitting  an invoice shall be extended  until the  resolution of
              such contest.

              Lessee in writing.

10.2     Default Interest

              If Lessee fails to pay any amount  payable under this Agreement on
              the due date,  Lessee  shall pay to Lessor on demand  from time to
              time interest both before and after judgement on that amount, from
              the due date or, in the case of amounts expressed to be payable on
              demand,  from the date of  receipt  of such  demand to the date of
              payment in full by Lessee to Lessor, at the Default Rate. All such
              interest  will  accrue on a  day-to-day  basis  and be  compounded
              weekly and calculated on the basis of a 360 day year.

10.3     Absolute Obligations

              This Agreement is a net lease and Lessee's  obligations under this
              Agreement  are absolute  and  unconditional,  irrespective  of any
              contingency or circumstance whatsoever, including (but not limited
              to):

          (i)  any right of set-off,  counterclaim,  recoupment,  reimbursement,
               defense or other  right which  Lessor or Lessee may have  against
               the other or against any other person;

          (ii) any unavailability of the Aircraft for any reason, including, but
               not limited to, requisition of the Aircraft or any prohibition or
               interruption of or interference with or other restriction against
               Lessee's use, operation or possession of the Aircraft;

          (iii)any lack or  invalidity  of title or any  other  defect in title,
               airworthiness,   merchantability,   fitness   for  any   purpose,
               condition,  design,  or  operation  of any kind or  nature of the
               Aircraft for any particular use or trade, or for  registration or
               documentation under the laws of any relevant jurisdiction, or any
               Total Loss in respect of or any damage to the Aircraft;

          (iv) any   insolvency,   bankruptcy,   reorganisation,    arrangement,
               readjustment  of  debt,   dissolution,   liquidation  or  similar
               proceedings by or against Lessor or Lessee or any other person;

          (v)  any  invalidity,  illegality,  unenforceability  or  lack  of due
               authorization of, or other defect in, this Agreement; and

          (vi) any other cause or  circumstance  that,  but for this  provision,
               would or might otherwise have the effect of terminating or in any
               way affecting any obligation of Lessee under this Agreement.

10.4     Application of Payments to Lessor

              If any sum paid to Lessor or recovered by Lessor in respect of the
              liabilities of Lessee under this Agreement is less than the amount
              then due,  Lessor  may apply  that sum to  amounts  due under this
              Agreement  in such  proportions  and order and  generally  in such
              manner as Lessor may determine.

10.5     Currency Indemnity

              If under any  applicable  law,  whether  as a result of  judgement
              against  Lessee  or the  liquidation  of  Lessee  or for any other
              reason,  any payment under or in connection with this Agreement is
              made or is recovered in a currency  ("other  currency") other than
              the  currency in which it is payable  pursuant  to this  Agreement
              ("contractual  currency"),  Lessee  shall,  to the extent that the
              payment (when converted into the contractual  currency at the rate
              of  exchange  on such date or, in the case of a  liquidation,  the
              latest date for the determination of liabilities  permitted by the
              applicable  law)  falls  short of the  amount  payable  under this
              Agreement,  as  a  separate  and  independent  obligation,   fully
              indemnify  Lessor  against  the amount of the  shortfall.  For the
              purposes of this  sub-Clause  "rate of exchange" means the rate at
              which the  Lessor is able on the  relevant  date to  purchase  the
              contractual  currency  in  London or any other  place  Lessor  may
              reasonably choose with the other currency.

10.6     Set-off

              Lessor may set-off any matured obligation owed by Lessee under the
              Transaction   Documents  or  any  Other  Agreements   against  any
              obligation, whether or not matured, owed by Lessor to Lessee.

10.7     Time for Payments

              If any  payment due under this  Agreement  other than a payment of
              Rent (see Clause 7.2) would  otherwise be due on a day that is not
              a Business  Day, it shall be due on the next  succeeding  Business
              Day.

11. Lessor's covenants

11.1     Quiet Enjoyment

              Provided no Default has occurred and is  continuing,  Lessor shall
              not,  and no one  claiming by or through the acts or  omissions of
              Lessor or Owner  Trustee  shall,  interfere  with the  quiet  use,
              possession  and  enjoyment  of the  Aircraft by Lessee  during the
              Lease Term. Lessor will cause Lender to confirm,  substantially in
              the  form  of  Schedule  11 or  such  other  form  as  Lender  may
              reasonably require, that it will not interfere with the quiet use,
              possession  and  enjoyment  of the  Aircraft by Lessee  during the
              Lease Term, provided no Default has occurred and is continuing.

11.2     Lessor Obligations Following Expiry Date

              Within five (5) Business Days after:

          (i)  redelivery  of the Aircraft to Lessor in  accordance  with and in
               the condition required by this Agreement; or

          (ii) payment  received by Lessor of the Agreed Value following a Total
               Loss after the Delivery Date;

              or in each case such later time as Lessor is reasonably  satisfied
              that Lessee has  irrevocably  paid to Lessor all amounts  that may
              then be  outstanding  or  become  payable  under  the  Transaction
              Documents and the Other Agreements, Lessor shall (provided that no
              Default has occurred and is continuing):

               (a)  pay to Lessee an amount equal to the balance of the Security
                    Deposit,  if any,  paid by Lessee under this  Agreement  and
                    then held by Lessor; and

               (b)  pay to Lessee the amount of any Rent  received in respect of
                    any period falling after the Redelivery  Date or the date of
                    payment of the Agreed Value,  as the case may be;  provided,
                    however,  if there is a dispute between Lessor and Lessee as
                    to the amount due to Lessee,  Lessor shall  nevertheless pay
                    to Lessee such amount as in Lessor's reasonable judgement is
                    not in dispute or is in excess of the amount  Lessor's claim
                    is due; and

          (vii)promptly  notify  Lessor in the event  Lessee is made aware of or
               determines that any computer application  (including those of its
               suppliers,  customers  and  vendors)  that  is  material  to  the
               business and operation of Lessee will not be year 2000  compliant
               (as described in Clause 2.1 (xxii)) on a timely basis,  except to
               the extent that such failure could not  reasonably be expected to
               have a materially adverse effect.

12.3     Lessor Visits

              Lessor may visit,  upon reasonable  notice,  Lessee's  premises to
              discuss  Lessee's  general  affairs  and  finances  with  Lessee's
              principal officers.

12.4     Periodic Estoppel Certificates

              Lessee  will,  within  ten (10)  Business  Days  after  receipt of
              written  notice from Lessor  (which will not occur more often than
              four (4) times in any calendar  year),  execute,  acknowledge  and
              deliver to Lessor a written statement as to each of the following:

          (i)  certifying  that this  Agreement is unmodified  and in full force
               and  effect  (or,  if  modified,   stating  the  nature  of  such
               modification and certifying that this Agreement,  as so modified,
               is in full force and  effect)  and the date to which the Rent and
               other charges are paid in advance, if any;

          (ii) acknowledging  that there are not,  to  Lessee's  knowledge,  any
               uncured defaults on the part of Lessor  hereunder,  or specifying

          (iii)acknowledging  that Lessee has no claims against Lessor by reason
               of the  condition  of the  Aircraft  as of the  Delivery  Date or
               arising subsequent thereto to the date of such statement.

              If Lessee does not deliver such statement  within such time-limit,
              the  statements  set  forth in this  Clause  12.4  will be  deemed
              correct and binding upon Lessee.

12.5     Airport and Navigation Charges

12.5.1        Lessee  will  promptly pay and discharge when due all landing fees
              and other similar  Airport  Charges  imposed by the authorities of
              any airport from or to which the  Aircraft  may  operate  and  any
              charges (including without limitation, all Air Navigation Charges)
              imposed  by  virtue  of  any  regulations  made  by  any  relevant
              authority  or  any  other  charges  in  respect  of air navigation
              incurred, in each case in respect of all aircraft of  which  it is
              the operator, and  will  indemnify  and  hold harmless  Lessor  in
              respect of the same.  This  indemnity  will continue in full force
              and effect notwithstanding the  termination or  expiration of this
              Agreement. Lessee  will ensure that all such charges are paid on a
              regular  basis  and  that  invoices  are  received  (and,  if  not
              received,  are  specifically  requested)  by  it from the relevant
              authorities no more than three (3) months after the event to which
              the charges relate.

12.5.2        If requested by Lessor,  Lessee will provide Lessor with a list of
              the airports to which the Aircraft or Lessee's  other aircraft are
              regularly   operated.   Lessee  hereby   authorises  any  Aviation
              Authority,  any airport or any other creditor  claiming  rights on
              the Aircraft or Lessee's  other  aircraft to confirm the status of
              Lessee's  payments to such creditor for the Aircraft and its other
              aircraft,  as and when  requested  by  Lessor.  To  evidence  this
              authority,  Lessee  will at Lessor's  request  execute one or more
              authorities substantially in the form of Schedule 7.

12.6     Operation of Aircraft

              Lessee  shall  not  maintain,  use  or  operate  the  Aircraft  in
              violation of any law or any mandatory rule, regulation or order of
              any Government Entity having  jurisdiction in any country,  state,
              province  or other  political  subdivision  in or over  which  the
              Aircraft   is  flown  or  in   violation   of  any   airworthiness
              certificate,  license or  registration  relating  to the  Aircraft
              issued by the Aviation  Authority or any similar  authority or any
              jurisdiction  in or over which the Aircraft is flown.  If any such
              law,  rule,   regulation  or  order  requires  alteration  of  the
              Aircraft,  Lessee shall conform or procure  conformance thereto at
              its  own  expense  and  maintain  or  procure  maintenance  of the
              Aircraft in proper  operating  condition  under such laws,  rules,
              regulations  and  orders;  provided  that Lessee may in good faith
              contest, or procure the contest of, the validity or application of
              any such law, rule,  regulation or order in any reasonable  manner
              that  does not  adversely  affect  Lessor or its  interest  in the
              Aircraft.  In particular,  Lessee will ensure that the Aircraft at
              all times  during the Lease  Term is  operated  by duly  qualified
              pilots  and  aircrew  employees,  and is  not  used  to  transport
              contraband  or illegal  narcotics or  hazardous or perilous  cargo
              (other than pursuant to applicable  FAA and carrier  regulations).
              The  Aircraft  may be used or operated in flight crew  conversion,
              training for Lessee's own employees and for experimental  flights;
              provided,  however,  prior to any such flights Lessee shall notify
              Lessor  and  shall  deliver  to  Lessor  evidence  that  insurance
              coverage is in effect for such flights.

12.7     Areas of Operation

              Lessee  shall not operate or locate the  Airframe or any Engine or
              Part or suffer the  Airframe  or any Engine or Part to be operated
              or located (i) in any area, or for carriage of any goods, excluded
              from  coverage  by the  Insurances  or (ii) in any  recognized  or
              threatened  area of  hostilities  unless fully covered by war risk
              insurance or (iii) outside the United States of America, Mexico or
              Canada.

12.8     Non-Prejudicial Action

              Lessee  shall not do anything  that,  or omit to do  anything  the
              omission of which,  prejudices  any right  Lessor may have against
              either the  Manufacturer  or the  manufacturer  or supplier of any
              part of the  Aircraft  in  respect  of the  Aircraft  or any  part
              thereof.

12.9     Non-Representation of Lessor

              Lessee shall not at any time  represent  Lessor,  Owner Trustee or
              Lender as carrying goods or passengers in the Aircraft or as being
              in any way connected or associated  with any operation or carriage
              being  undertaken by Lessee or as having any operational  interest
              in or responsibility for the Aircraft.

12.10    Inspection

              Lessor may at all reasonable  times on reasonable  notice inspect,
              or  appoint  an  inspector  (including  Lender)  on its  behalf to
              inspect,  the Aircraft or any part  thereof,  provided  that if no
              Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing  Lessee
              shall not be obliged  hereunder to permit,  or procure  permission
              for,  any such  inspection  that would  result in an  unreasonable
              disruption  of the  operation of the Aircraft or the  operation of
              the business of Lessee as an airline.  Lessee  agrees to reimburse
              the  out-of-pocket  expenses of Lessor incurred in making any such
              inspection  when such  inspection  shows that the  Aircraft is not
              materially  in  the  condition  required  by  the  terms  of  this
              Agreement,  provided  that  Lessee  shall  in  all  cases  pay  or
              reimburse  Lessor  for the costs of such  inspection  or survey if
              Lessor is required  by law or change of law to make an  inspection
              or survey.  Lessor shall have no duty to make any such  inspection
              and shall not incur any  liability or  obligation by reason of not
              making any such inspection.  Lessee shall provide Lessor with such
              information  regarding  the present and  anticipated  location and
              regarding the  condition of the Aircraft as Lessor may  reasonably
              require.  For the  purposes  mentioned  in this  Clause  12.10 and
              subject  to the  limitations  herein  contained,  Lessor  and  any
              inspector may gain access to the Aircraft,  including the Aircraft
              Documents.  Lessee  shall  forthwith  effect  such  repairs to the
              Aircraft as such  inspection may reasonably  show are required for
              the terms of this  Agreement to be complied  with, but if it fails
              to do so  after  receipt  of  notice  requiring  it to do so  from
              Lessor,  Lessor  may at the cost and  expense  of  Lessee,  itself
              arrange for such repairs to be carried out. Lessee shall on demand
              reimburse  the costs and expenses  incurred by Lessor in effecting
              such repairs.

12.11    Registration

12.11.1       Lessee shall at its own expense  procure that the Aircraft and the
              interests  of the  parties  set  out  below  is  duly  registered,
              recorded or filed with the Aviation  Authority (to the extent that
              the Aviation  Authority  permits  registration  in that manner) as
              follows:

          (i)  Owner Trustee as owner;

          (ii) the first priority security interest of Lender

          (iii)Lessor's  interest,  by filing the Lease Supplement  according to
               Schedule

          (iv) Lessee as operator of the  Aircraft  and  maintain or provide the
               maintenance  of such  registration  throughout  the  Lease  Term.
               Lessee shall further provide that the interests of any successors
               and assigns to the parties  referred to in this paragraph will be
               filed and recorded with the FAA and that such recordation will be
               maintained in the same manner as required herein. Lessee will not
               take any action or omit to take any action  that will  invalidate
               any such registration or recordation. Lessee shall provide Lessor
               as soon as available with evidence of such registration.

12.11.2       Lessee  shall at its own expense  provide that at all times during
              the  Lease  Term,  the  Aircraft  possesses  a valid  current  FAA
              Certificate  of  Airworthiness,  and all such other  certificates,
              licenses,  permits  and  authorizations  as are from  time to time
              required for the use and  operation of the Aircraft for the public
              transport of passengers or cargo from any Government Entity having
              jurisdiction  in any country,  state,  province or other political
              subdivision  in or over  which  the  Aircraft  is flown  including
              without limitation any Aviation Authority.

12.12    Name Plates

              On the  Delivery  Date  or as  soon  thereafter  as is  reasonably
              practicable,  Lessee  shall  affix  and  thereafter  maintain,  or
              procure the affixation and maintenance

              of, in a prominent  position in the cockpit of the Aircraft and on
              each  Engine  a  fireproof  metal  nameplate   bearing  a  legible
              inscription  in a form  reasonably  required by Lessor stating the
              Aircraft   type,   manufacturer's   serial   number  and   current
              registration  letters of the Aircraft and denoting the name of (i)
              Lessor as lessor  (ii) Owner  Trustee as owner  trustee  and (iii)
              Lender as  mortgagee.  Except as above  provided  Lessee  will not
              allow the name of any  person to be placed on the  Airframe  or on
              any Engine as a designation  that constitutes a claim of ownership
              or a claim of any Security Interest;  provided that nothing herein
              contained shall prohibit Lessee (or any person to which possession
              of the  Airframe  or any Engine is  delivered  or  transferred  in
              accordance  with  Clauses 13 and 14) from  placing  its  customary
              colours and insignia on the Airframe.

12.13    Geneva Convention

              Whenever the State of  Registration  is a signatory state that has
              ratified the Geneva Convention,  Lessee shall, at its own cost, do
              any and all  things  necessary  in the  State of  Registration  to
              perfect recognition of the interests of Owner Trustee,  Lessor and
              Lender to the  Aircraft  by every other  signatory  state that has
              ratified the Geneva Convention.

12.14    Merger and Shareholding

              Lessee will not sell its  business  to or operate its  business in
              any other  corporate  form or entity (the new  entity)  unless (a)
              such new entity is solvent and duly  organised and existing  under
              the  law of the  State  of  Incorporation  or  any  federal  state
              thereof,  if  applicable,  and the new  entity  has  executed  and
              delivered to Lessor an agreement in form and substance  acceptable
              to Lessor assuming the due and punctual performance and observance
              of each of the terms of this  Agreement and the other  Transaction
              Documents and (b) immediately after such sale or the giving effect
              to such  operation  as that new entity,  the tangible net worth of
              such new entity is equal to or greater than that of Lessee and the
              creditworthiness   of  such  new  entity  does  not,  in  Lessor's
              reasonable  opinion,  adversely  affect  the  ability  of such new
              entity to perform its  obligations  under this  Agreement  and the
              other Transaction  Documents or any Other Agreements.  Lessee will
              give Lessor  prior  written  notice of any such  proposed  sale or
              change in operation together with a non-refundable  processing fee
              in the amount as set forth in Schedule 2 and a request of Lessor's
              approval.  Lessee shall  reimburse  Lessor within ten (10) days of
              Lessor's invoice for all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Lessor
              as a result of such proposed merger whether or not Lessor approves
              and whether or not it actually occurs.

12.15    Ownership

              Title to the Aircraft will be and remain vested in Owner  Trustee.
              Lessee  will  have no right,  title or  interest  in the  Aircraft
              except as provided  for in this  Agreement.  Lessee shall not hold
              itself out as owner of the Aircraft and, on all occasions when the
              ownership of the Aircraft or any part of it is relevant, will make
              clear to  third  parties  that  title to the same is held by Owner
              Trustee, subject to the Mortgage.

12.16    Maintenance of Principal Business Place

              Lessee shall  maintain its  principal  place of business and chief
              executive  office and the office  where it keeps its  business and

              forth in the final  sentence of  Clause 13.4 shall be deemed to be
              satisfactory to Lessor),  whereby such  Lessor  or  secured  party
              expressly agrees that neither it nor its successors  or  assignees
              will acquire or claim any right, title or interest in  any  Engine

              security agreement under circumstances where neither Clause 13.1.1
              nor 13.1.2 can be fulfilled in the circumstances, provided that it
              would otherwise have resulted in an unreasonable disruption of the
              operation  of the  Aircraft  or the  business of the Lessee and in
              such event Lessee shall,  as promptly as possible and in any event

               Registration;

          (iii)the  length  of any such  sublease  does not  extend  beyond  the

               entered into between  Owner  Trustee or Lessor in relation to the
               Aircraft;

13.1.7        sublease the Aircraft or Airframe to any  wholly-owned  subsidiary

               conditions set out in this Clause 13.1.7 are satisfied;

          (iii)the sublease  shall  terminate on or before  termination  of this
               Agreement  and the terms and  conditions  of the sublease are not
               inconsistent  with  those  contained  in  this  Agreement  or any
               finance or security  document  entered into between Lessor and/or
               Owner Trustee and/or Lender and the sublessee  shall  acknowledge
               that its rights are subordinate to Owner Trustee's,  Lessor's and
               Lender's rights under this Agreement  (provided that the sublease
               shall not permit further subleasing);

          (iv) the  Insurances  are in full force and effect in accordance  with
               the terms of this  Agreement and, if the sublessee is to maintain
               such insurances  during the term of such sublease,  it shall have
               furnished to Lessor all such documents,  evidence and information
               relating to such  insurances  which Lessee is required to furnish
               or cause to be provided to Lessor under this Agreement;

          (v)  if the Aviation  Authority for the duration of the sublease is to

               registration and Lessor receives (x) an opinion of counsel in the
               State  of   Registration   in  form  and   substance   reasonably
               satisfactory  to Lessor and the Lender  which  opinion  must,  at
               least,  address the  satisfactory  recognition of Owner Trustee's
               ownership of, and Lender's  Security Interest in the Aircraft and
               (y) evidence  that all actions  recommended  in such opinion have

              remain  primarily  liable  hereunder for the performance of all of
              the terms of this Agreement to the same extent as if such transfer
              or sublease had not occurred. No interchange  agreement,  sublease
              or other  relinquishment  of  possession  of the  Airframe  or any
              Engine  permitted by this Clause 13 shall in any way  discharge or

              of any engine  subleased  to Lessee or owned by Lessee  subject to
              any Security  Interest,  a written  agreement  complying  with the

              party, any right, title or interest in any such engine as a result
              of such engine  being  installed on the Airframe at any time while
              such engine is subject to such sublease or security  agreement and
              owned by such  sublessor  or  subject to a  Security  Interest  in
              favour of such secured party and Lessor  shall,  at the request of

14.1     Title

              Lessee  shall not do, or permit to be done,  any act,  which might

              period exceeding ten (10) days.

14.4     Notice to Lessor

              Lessee shall notify Lessor:

              lost,  stolen,  destroyed,  seized,  confiscated,  damaged  beyond
              repair or permanently rendered unfit for use, provided that Lessee
              shall,  except as otherwise  provided in Clause  16.7,  at its own
              cost and expense,  immediately replace, or procure the replacement
              of, such Parts.  Title to all replacement Parts shall be vested in
              Owner  Trustee,  subject  to the  Mortgage,  free and clear of all
              Security  Interests  except  Permitted Liens and shall,  except as
              otherwise  provided  in  Clause  16.7,  be  in as  good  operating
              condition  as,  and shall  have a value,  age,  configuration  and
              utility  at least  equal to, the  replaced  Parts,  assuming  such
              replaced  Parts were in the  condition  and repair  required to be
              maintained  by  the  terms  hereof,   and  shall  have  a  current
              "serviceable  tag" of the  manufacturer  or  maintenance  facility
              providing such items to Lessee.

16.2     Title to Replacement Parts

              All Parts at any time  removed  from the  Airframe  or any  Engine
              shall  remain the  property  of Owner  Trustee  and subject to the
              terms of 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 or added to the Airframe
              or Engine and which meet the  requirements  for replacement  Parts
              specified  above.  Immediately  upon any replacement Part becoming
              incorporated  or installed in or attached or added to the Airframe
              or any Engine as above provided, without further act, (a) title to
              the replaced Part shall  thereupon vest in Lessee,  shall cease to
              be subject to this  Agreement and shall no longer be deemed a Part
              hereunder  and (b) title to such  replacement  Part  shall pass to
              Owner  Trustee,  subject  to the  Mortgage,  free and clear of all
              Security  Interests  except  Permitted Liens and such  replacement
              Part shall become  subject to this Agreement and be deemed Part of
              the Airframe or Engine for all purposes  hereof to the same extent
              as the Parts  originally  incorporated or installed in or attached
              or  added to such  Airframe  or  Engine  and  shall  become a Part
              hereunder.

16.3     Pooling of Parts

              Any Part  removed  from the  Airframe or any Engine as provided in
              Clause  16.1  or  16.2  may  be  subjected  to  a  normal  pooling
              arrangement  customary in the airline industry entered into in the
              ordinary  course  of  Lessee's  business,  provided  that the part
              replacing such removed Part shall be  incorporated or installed in
              or attached to the  Airframe  or such  Engine in  accordance  with
              Clause 16.1 and 16.2 as soon as  practicable  after the removal of
              such removed  Part.  Without  prejudice to the  generality  of the
              foregoing  sentence,  any  replacement  Part when  incorporated or
              installed  in or  attached  to the  Airframe  or any Engine may be
              owned  by  a  third  person  subject  to  such  a  normal  pooling
              arrangement, provided that Lessee, at its own expense, as promptly
              thereafter   as   possible,   either  (a)  causes  title  to  such
              replacement  Part to vest in  Owner  Trustee  in  accordance  with
              Clause  16.1 and 16.2  free and  clear of all  Security  Interests
              except   Permitted   Liens,   or  (b)  replaces  or  procures  the
              replacement  of  such  replacement  Part by the  incorporation  or
              installation  in or  attachment  to such  Airframe  or Engine of a
              further  replacement  Part (which meets the  requirements  of this
              Clause  16)  free  and  clear  of all  Security  Interests  except
              Permitted  Liens and by causing title to such further  replacement
              Part to vest in the Owner  Trustee,  subject to the  Mortgage,  in
              accordance with Clause 16.1 and 16.2 and such further  replacement
              Part shall  forthwith  be deemed Part of the Airframe or Engine to
              the same extent as the Part  originally  incorporated or installed
              in or attached to the  Airframe or such Engine and shall  become a
              Part hereunder.

16.4     Alterations

              Lessee shall at its own expense,  make,  or procure the making of,
              such  alterations  and  modifications  in  and  additions  to  the
              Airframe and Engines as may be required  from time to time to meet
              the standards of the Aviation  Authority or any Government  Entity
              having  jurisdiction  in  any  country,  state,  county  or  other
              political  subdivision  in or over which the  Aircraft is flown or
              the FAA and any mandatory or recommended  service bulletins of the
              Manufacturer.  In addition,  Lessee may, at its own expense,  from
              time to time, make, or procure the making of, such alterations and
              modifications  in  and  additions  including  the  making  of  any
              improvements  to the  Airframe  or any  Engine as Lessee  may deem
              desirable  in  the  proper  conduct  of its  business,  including,
              removal of Parts  (for  purposes  of this  Clause  16.4,  Obsolete
              Parts)  which  Lessee  deems  obsolete  or no longer  suitable  or
              appropriate for use in the Airframe or such Engine,  provided that
              no such alteration,  modification,  addition or removal shall cost
              over US$ 200,000,  or alter the fundamental nature of the Aircraft
              as a passenger  carrying  aircraft,  or change its  original  type
              design  or  configuration,  or  materially  diminish  the value or
              utility  of the  Airframe  or  any  such  Engine,  or  impair  the
              condition  or  airworthiness  thereof,  below the value,  utility,
              condition  and  airworthiness  thereof  immediately  prior to such
              alteration,   modification,  addition  or  removal  assuming  such
              Airframe or Engine was then in the condition  and repair  required
              to be  maintained  by the  terms of this  Agreement.  Title to all
              Parts  incorporated  or  installed  in or attached or added to the
              Airframe  or any such  Engine as the  result  of such  alteration,
              modification or addition shall be vested in Owner Trustee, subject
              to the  Mortgage,  and  shall  forthwith  be  deemed  Part  of the
              Airframe or such Engine. Neither Owner Trustee,  Lender nor Lessor
              shall be required under any  circumstances to pay directly for any
              alteration,  modification  or  addition  to  the  Aircraft  or  to
              reimburse Lessee for the cost thereof. Any other alterations other
              than those  permitted  according to Clause 16.5  require  Lessor's
              prior written  consent,  which  consent shall not be  unreasonably
              withheld or delayed.

16.5     Removal of Parts

              Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,  so long as no Default shall have
              occurred  and be  continuing,  Lessee  may  remove,  or permit the
              removal of, at any time during the Lease Term, any Part,  provided
              that (a) such Part is in addition to, and not in replacement of or
              substitution for, any Part originally incorporated or installed in
              or attached to the  Airframe or any Engine at the time of Delivery
              or in replacement of, or substitution for, any such Part, (b) such
              Part  is  not  required  to be  incorporated  or  installed  in or
              attached or added to the  Airframe or such Engine  pursuant to the
              terms of Clause  16.4 or 16.5,  and (c) such  Part can be  removed
              from the  Airframe or such Engine  without  causing  damage to the
              Airframe  or such  Engine or if it causes any such damage is to be
              repaired   and  promptly   thereafter   is  repaired  and  without
              diminishing  or  impairing  the  value,   utility,   condition  or
              airworthiness  required  to be  maintained  by the  terms  of this
              Agreement  that the Airframe or such Engine would have had at such
              time had such  alteration,  modification  or addition not occurred
              assuming  it  was in  the  condition  and  repair  required  to be
              maintained  under this Agreement.  Upon the removal of any Part as
              provided in the immediately  preceding sentence and the removal of
              any Obsolete Part, title thereto shall,  without further act, vest
              in Lessee,  free and clear of all rights of Owner Trustee,  Lender
              and  Lessor  and such Part  shall no longer be deemed  part of the
              Airframe  or Engine  from  which it was  removed.  Any Part not so
              removed shall remain the property of Owner Trustee, subject to the
              Mortgage.

16.6     Substitution of Engine

              In addition to its rights under  Clause 13,  Lessee shall have the
              right at its  option at any  time,  on at least  thirty  (30) days
              prior  written  notice to Owner  Trustee,  Lender and  Lessor,  to
              substitute  or procure the  substitution  of an engine of the same
              make and model as the Engine  specified in Schedule 1 or an engine
              of an improved  model  suitable  for  installation  and use on the
              Airframe for any such Engine not then installed or held for use on
              the Airframe.  Any such  substitute  engine,  the  substitution of
              which is in accordance with the provisions of this Clause 16.6 and
              which complies with the  requirements  of this Clause 16.6 being a
              "Replacement Engine" provided that title to the Replacement Engine
              shall be vested in Owner  Trustee,  subject to the Mortgage,  free
              and clear of all Security  Interests,  other than Permitted Liens,
              and the  Replacement  Engine  shall have a value and  utility  and
              maintenance  status,  including time since last Engine Performance
              Restoration  Visit, at least equal to the replaced Engine and time
              since  new no  greater  than the  replaced  Engine  as  reasonably
              determined  by  Lessor,  assuming  that  such  Engine  was  in the
              condition  and repair  required to be  maintained  by the terms of
              this Agreement and Lessee shall deliver such documents including a
              bill of sale and  opinion of  counsel as to title and  recordation
              with the FAA, as Lessor may  reasonably  request to  evidence  the
              foregoing.  In such event,  immediately upon the  effectiveness of
              such substitution on the date set forth in such notice and without
              further act:

          (i)  title to the replaced  Engine shall thereupon vest in Lessee free
               and clear of all rights of Owner Trustee,  Lender and Lessor, and
               the replaced  Engine shall cease to be subject to this  Agreement
               and shall no longer be deemed an Engine hereunder; and

          (ii) title to such  Replacement  Engine  shall vest in Owner  Trustee,
               subject to the Mortgage, free and clear of all Security Interests
               except Permitted Liens and such  Replacement  Engine shall become
               subject to this  Agreement and an Engine  hereunder and be deemed
               part of the Aircraft for all purposes hereof.

16.7     Temporary Removal of Parts

              Lessee  shall  be  entitled,  so long  as no  Default  shall  have
              occurred  which has not been remedied or waived to the  reasonable
              satisfaction of Lessor,  to substitute,  replace or renew any Part
              with a part that does not satisfy the  requirements of Clause 16.1
              or 16.2 provided that:

          (i)  there shall not have been available to Lessee, at the time and in
               the place that such  substitute or replacement  part was required
               to be  installed  on the  Airframe  or  Engines a  substitute  or
               replacement  part complying with the  requirements of Clause 16.1
               and 16.2;

          (ii) it would  have  resulted  in an  unreasonable  disruption  of the
               operation of the Aircraft or the business of Lessee as an airline
               to have grounded the Aircraft  until such time as a substitute or
               replacement  part complying with the  requirements of Clause 16.1
               and 16.2 became available for installation in or on the Aircraft;

          (iii)Lessee shall have notified  Lessor prior to or, in the case of an
               extreme  urgency as soon as  possible  after,  the making of such
               substitution, replacement or renewal of any material Part; and

          (iv) as soon as possible after  installation  of the same in or on the
               Airframe or Engine (and in any event no later than  fifteen  (15)
               days thereafter)  Lessee shall remove any such part not complying
               with the  requirements  of Clause  16.1 and 16.2 and  replace  or
               substitute the same with a Part complying with such requirements.

16.8     Parts Incapable of Transfer

              If any  replacement  Part is incapable of becoming the property of
              Owner Trustee free of all Security Interests (other than Permitted
              Liens) as  required  by Clause 16 the part  which it has  replaced
              shall, unless Lessor shall otherwise agree in writing, be kept and
              maintained  by the  Lessee or any  sublessee,  as the case may be,
              until  the  Expiry  Date and be  placed  on the  Aircraft  in good
              working order before the Aircraft is  redelivered to the Lessor on
              the Expiry Date.

17. Manufacturer's warranties

17.1     Authorization

17.1.1        With  effect from  Delivery,  Lessor authorises Lessee to exercise
              such rights as Lessor may have in  relation  to  any warranty with
              respect to the Aircraft,  any  Engine  or  any  Part  made  by any
              manufacturer,  vendor,  subcontractor,   maintenance  facility  or
              supplier subject  to  Lessee  notifying  Lessor  in writing of any
              warranty  claim  of  a  material   nature   and   keeping   Lessor
              continuously informed of the development  of  such  warranty claim
              To the extent that the same may not be available to Lessee, Lessor
              agrees to, at the sole cost and expense of  Lessee,  enforce  such
              rights as Lessor may have with respect thereto for the benefit  of
              Lessee. Lessor shall also have the right, rather than enforcing or
              making such claim on behalf of Lessee under  such  warranties,  to
              appoint  Lessee  as  its  agent  for  such  purpose,  and  in such
              instance, Lessee agrees to accept such appointment and  make  such
              claims and enforce such warranties at its sole cost  and  expense.
              This authorization shall cease on the Expiry  Date.  Lessee  shall
              not be entitled to exercise its  authorisation  hereunder  while a
              Default  is  continuing  (during  which time all such rights shall
              revert  to Lessor and Lessor hereby agrees to exercise and enforce
              such rights during such period).

17.1.2        Lessee  shall  give  Lessor  prompt written notice of any warranty
              claim that is settled with Lessee on  the  basis  of  a  total  or
              partial cash payment. Any cash payments shall be applied to remedy
              the defect subject to such warranty claim unless Lessor  otherwise
              consents in writing. Any cash payments to  Lessee  in  respect  of
              warranty  claims  that  (either with  Lessor's  written consent or
              because the  defect  can  not  be remedied) are not applied to the
              repair or remedy of defects  in  the  Aircraft  or  to  compensate
              Lessee for the costs incurred for any such repair or  remedy,  and
              which are not in respect of compensation for loss of  use  of  the
              Aircraft, an Engine or Part during the Lease Term due to a  defect
              covered by such warranty, shall be for Lessor's account.

17.2     Proceeds

              So long as no  Default  has  occurred  and is  continuing,  Lessor
              agrees, subject to Clause 17.1, to co-operate with Lessee to cause
              any proceeds  from any  warranty  referred to in Clause 17.1 to be
              paid directly to Lessee, and, if any such proceeds are nonetheless
              paid to Lessor,  Lessor agrees to remit  promptly such proceeds to
              Lessee.  However,  while  a  Default  is  continuing,  Lessor  may
              immediately:

          (i)  retain for its own account any such proceeds  previously  paid to
               Lessor which would have been remitted to Lessee under this Clause
               17.2 in the absence of such Default or Event of Default; and

          (ii) cause any  proceeds of any  pending  claims to be paid to Lessor,
               rather than to Lessee.

              Once the Default is cured,  Lessor shall  reimburse  Lessee to the
              extent  that it would have been  obliged to under this Clause 17.2
              had no such Default occurred.

17.3     Agreements with Manufacturers

              To the extent that any  warranties  relating to the  Aircraft  are
              made  available  under  an  agreement  between  any  manufacturer,
              vendor, subcontractor or supplier and Lessee, Lessee will:

          (i)  apply  the  proceeds  of  any  claim  under  such   agreement  in
               accordance with Clause 17.2; and

18.6     Lessee Examination of Aircraft

              DELIVERY  BY LESSEE TO LESSOR  OF THE  ACCEPTANCE  CERTIFICATE  IS

              TECHNICAL  EXPERTS HAD EXAMINED  AND  INVESTIGATED  THE  AIRCRAFT,
              ENGINES  AND EACH PART  THEREOF AND  DETERMINED  THAT (i) EACH WAS
              AIRWORTHY  AND IN GOOD  WORKING  ORDER  AND  REPAIR  AND  (ii) THE

              person or property  whatsoever,  whether on board the  Aircraft or

              Lessor's  or  Owner  Trustee  or  their   respective   agents'  or

              payable under this Agreement.

19. Indemnities

19.1     General Indemnity

              Lessee  agrees to defend,  indemnify and hold harmless on an after
              Tax basis each of the  Indemnitees  on demand from and against any
              and all Losses  arising  from  events  occurring  during the Lease
              Term:

          (i)  that  may at  any  time  be  suffered  or  incurred  directly  or
               indirectly as a result of or in connection  with the  possession,
               delivery,  performance,   management,  ownership,   registration,
               import,  control,   maintenance,   condition,   service,  repair,
               Overhaul,   leasing,    subleasing,    deregistration,    export,
               manufacture,    storage,    transportation,    design,   testing,
               replacement,  use,  operation or redelivery of the Aircraft,  any
               Engine or Part  (either in the air or on the  ground)  whether or
               not  such  Losses  may  be  attributable  to  any  defect  in the
               Aircraft,  any Engine or any Part or to their respective  design,
               testing  or use or  otherwise,  and  regardless  of when the same
               arises (but excluding any injuries or claims which arise prior to
               Delivery) or whether it arises out of or is  attributable  to any
               act or omission,  negligent (active or passive) or otherwise,  of
               any Indemnitee  (including  without  limitation claims for death,
               personal  injury,  property  damage,  other  loss  or harm to any
               person  and  claims  relating  to  any  Laws,  including  without
               limitation  environmental control, noise and pollution laws rules
               or regulations);

          (ii) that may at any time be suffered or incurred as a consequence  of
               any  breach  of the  Transaction  Documents  by the  Lessee or by
               misrepresentation of or breach of warranty by Lessee; and

          (iii)that may at any time be suffered or incurred as a consequence  of
               any design,  article or material in the  Aircraft,  any Engine or
               any Part or its operation or use  constituting an infringement of
               patent, copyright,  trademark,  design or other proprietary right
               or a breach by Lessee,  or anyone acting by or through Lessee, of
               any obligation of  confidentiality  owed to any person in respect
               of any of the matters referred to in this Clause 19.1 (iii),

19.2     Exception to General Indemnity

              The  indemnity  provided for in Clause 19.1 will not extend to any
              Loss in relation  to a  particular  Indemnitee  to the extent that
              such Loss:

          (i)  arises  as a direct  result  of the  gross  negligence  or wilful
               misconduct of such Indemnitee; or

          (ii) arises as a direct  result of Lessor  Taxes,  a Lessor  Lien or a
               wilful  breach  by  Lessor  of its  obligations  under any of the
               Transaction Documents; or

          (iii) constitutes a Tax or liability for Taxes.

19.3     Time of Payment

              Lessee will pay an Indemnitee  for Losses within ten (10) Business
              Days  after  receipt  of  a  written  demand  therefor  from  such
              Indemnitee  accompanied  by  a  written  statement  describing  in
              reasonable detail the basis for such indemnity.

19.4     Survival of General Indemnity

              Notwithstanding  anything in this  Agreement to the contrary,  the
              provisions  of Clause  19.1 shall  survive the Expiry Date for two
              (2) years and  continue  in full force and effect  notwithstanding
              any breach by Lessor or Lessee of the terms of this Agreement, the
              termination  of the lease of the  Aircraft  to Lessee  under  this
              Agreement  or  the   repudiation  by  Lessor  or  Lessee  of  this
              Agreement.

19.5     Notice to Lessee

              Lessor shall promptly after  obtaining  actual  knowledge  thereof
              notify  the  Lessee  of any claim as to which  indemnification  is
              sought;  provided that a failure to so notify will not diminish or
              relieve Lessee of any obligations  hereunder,  unless such failure
              materially  adversely  affects  Lessee's defence of such claim and
              directly results in a material increase in liability of the Lessee
              in respect of such claim or prevents it from  materially  reducing
              liability therefor, in which case the Lessee shall not be required
              to  indemnify  such  Indemnitee  for  the  amount  by  which  such
              liability was increased or not reduced.

20. Taxation

20.1     Gross-up

20.1.1        All payments by Lessee under or in connection  with this Agreement
              shall be made in full  without any set-off or  counterclaim,  free
              and  clear  of and  without  deduction  or  withholding  for or on
              account  of all  Taxes,  except  Lessor  Taxes,  unless  Lessee is
              required by law to make any such deduction or withholding.

20.1.2        If any Taxes,  except Lessor Taxes, are required to be deducted or
              withheld from any amount  payable  hereunder,  Lessee shall pay to
              Lessor by way of Supplemental Rent such additional amounts, in the
              same  currency as such  payment as may be  necessary in order that
              the amount of the net  payment  received  by Lessor on the date of
              such payment,  after  deduction or withholding for all such Taxes,
              will be equal to the amount  that  Lessor  would have  received if
              such Taxes had not been deducted or withheld.

20.1.3        If any payment is made by Lessee under Clause 19.2 and  Lessor  in
              good faith  determines  that  it  is  entitled to receive a credit
              against, or relief or remission for, or repayment of, any Tax paid
              or payable by Lessor in respect of or calculated with reference to
              the deduction or withholding giving rise to  such payment,  Lessor
              shall, to the extent that it can do so without  prejudice  to  the
              retention of the  amount  of  such  credit,  relief, remission  or
              repayment  and  without  leaving Lessor in any worse net after tax
              position than that in which  it would have been had such deduction
              or withholding not been required  to  be  made,  promptly  pay  to
              Lessee  such  amount as Lessor shall reasonably have determined to
              be attributable to the relevant deduction or withholding.

20.2     Tax Indemnity

20.2.1        Lessee shall  indemnify  Lessor on demand against all Taxes (other
              than  Lessor  Taxes)  levied or imposed  against  or upon  Lessor,
              Lessee or the Aircraft  directly or indirectly in connection  with
              the importation,  exportation,  registration,  ownership, leasing,
              subleasing,  purchase, delivery, sale, possession, use, operation,
              repair, maintenance, Overhaul,  transportation,  landing, storage,
              presence or  redelivery of the Aircraft or any part thereof or any
              rent,  receipts,  insurance  proceeds,  income  or  other  amounts
              arising  therefrom  except to the extent that such  liability  for
              such Taxes:

          (i)  arises as a result of a Lessor Lien; or

          (ii) arises in respect  of the period  ending  prior to  Delivery  and
               commencing immediately after the Expiry Date; or

          (iii)is directly  attributable to Lessor's gross  negligence or wilful
               misconduct; or

          (iv) relates to any deduction or withholding on any payment to be made
               to Lessor that is covered by Clause 20.1; or

          (v)  imposed as a direct result of the sale, transfer or assignment or
               other  disposition  of the Aircraft or this  Agreement by Lessor,
               other than by Lessor to Lessee,  or by any party  claiming  by or
               through Lessor and except (a) any sale,  transfer,  assignment or
               other  disposition  that  is  made  solely  as a  result  of  the
               occurrence  of an Event of Default or Total Loss of the  Aircraft
               or any part thereof or interest therein and (b) any Taxes imposed
               by the State of Registration.

20.2.2        If Lessor becomes aware of any claim against Lessor for  any  Loss
              that Lessee is required to pay or  indemnify  against  pursuant to
              this  Clause  20.2,  Lessor  shall  as  soon  as   is   reasonably
              practicable notify Lessee in writing of such claim.  If  requested
              in writing by Lessee that it wishes Lessor to contest such  claim,
              Lessor will consult with Lessee with a view to determining whether
              there are grounds for contesting such claim. Lessor will  consider
              in good faith any representation made by Lessee  in  this respect.
              Lessor shall not be under any obligation to  bring any proceedings
              in respect of any such claim in any court of law or other relevant
              forum except that Lessor shall bring such proceedings in the event
              that tax counsel reasonably acceptable to  Lessor  in the relevant
              jurisdiction provides Lessor  with  a  legal opinion to the effect
              that there  are  legitimate grounds for contesting such claim. Any
              costs and  expenses of any such contest shall be fully indemnified
              by Lessee. Further Lessor shall be under no obligation to take any
              action in  respect  of  any  claim unless it shall previously have
              been provided with security in an amount equal  to  the  amount of
              such claim and reasonable costs and otherwise satisfactory in  its
              absolute discretion for any such costs. Any amount  payable  under
              this Clause 20.2 shall be paid to or on behalf of Lessor or, if so
              directed by Lessor, directly to  the  relevant  taxing  authority,
              promptly after receipt by Lessee of a written demand therefor.

20.3     Value Added Taxes

              The Rent and other amounts  payable by Lessee under this Agreement
              are exclusive of any value added tax,  turnover tax or similar tax
              or  duty.  If a  value  added  tax or any  similar  tax or duty is
              payable  in any  jurisdiction  in  respect  of any  Rent or  other
              amounts  as  aforesaid,  Lessee  will pay all such tax or duty and
              indemnify  Lessor  against any claims for the same and any related
              claims, losses or liabilities.

20.4     Taxation of Indemnity Payments

20.4.1        Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement,  if  and to
              the extent that any sums payable to any Indemnitee by Lessee under
              this Agreement by way of indemnity are insufficient, by reason  of
              any Taxes payable in respect of those sums, for such Indemnitee to
              discharge the  corresponding liability to the relevant third party
              (including   any   taxation   authority),  or  to  reimburse  such
              Indemnitee for the cost incurred by it to a third party (including
              any taxation authority)  Lessee shall pay to such Indemnitee  such
              sum as will after the tax liability has been fully satisfied leave
              that Indemnitee with  the  same  amount  as  it  would  have  been
              entitled to receive in the absence of that liability.

20.4.2        If and to the  extent  that any  sums  constituting  (directly  or
              indirectly)  an indemnity to an  Indemnitee  but paid by Lessee to
              any person  other than such  Indemnitee  are treated as taxable in
              the hands of such Indemnitee,  Lessee shall pay to such Indemnitee
              such  sum  as  will,  after  the  tax  liability  has  been  fully
              satisfied,  indemnify  such  Indemnitee  to the same  extent as it
              would have been indemnified in the absence of such liability.

20.5     Benefit of Indemnities

              All rights expressed to be granted to each Indemnitee  (other than
              Lessor) under this Agreement are given to Lessor on behalf of that
              Indemnitee.

20.6     Lessor Indemnification

              Without  prejudice to Clause 20.5,  Lessor shall be entitled  (but
              not obliged) to indemnify Indemnitees (other than Lessor) on terms
              equivalent to the indemnities given by Lessee under this Agreement
              and  the   obligations   of  Lessee  to  Lessor  shall  extend  to
              reimbursement  of Lessor of any amount  properly paid by Lessor to
              such other Indemnitee  provided always that nothing in this Clause
              20.6 shall operate to increase the  obligations  or liabilities of
              Lessee.

20.7     Survival of Tax Indemnities

              Notwithstanding  anything in this  Agreement to the contrary,  the
              provisions of Clause 19 shall survive the Expiry Date and continue
              in full force and effect  notwithstanding  any breach by Lessor or
              Lessee  of the terms of this  Agreement,  the  termination  of the
              lease of the  Aircraft  to  Lessee  under  this  Agreement  or the
              repudiation by Lessor or Lessee of this Agreement.

20.8     Mitigation and Co-operation

              In any case  where  Lessee  would be obliged to bear Taxes or make
              additional  payment on account of Taxes pursuant to the provisions
              of this Agreement as a result of any change in applicable  laws or
              regulations  or practice,  Lessor shall at the written  request of
              Lessee,  without  limiting,  reducing or otherwise  qualifying the
              rights of Lessor and the Security Interest of Lender, consult with
              Lessee in good faith as to such steps which  Lessor and Lessee can
              mutually  accept and agree upon in order to  mitigate or avoid the
              effects of such  circumstances.  In case Lessor and Lessee can not
              agree  within a period of thirty (30) days after Lessee has made a
              written  request,  Lessor  shall not have any  further  obligation
              towards Lessee.

20.9     Furnishing Forms

              Lessor agrees to furnish, and to procure that any other Indemnitee
              furnishes  to  Lessee,  or to such  other  person  as  Lessee  may
              designate,  at Lessee's sole cost and expense,  such duly executed
              and properly  completed  forms as such Indemnitee may be permitted
              and legally able to deliver and as may be necessary or appropriate
              in order to claim  any  reduction  of, or  exemption  from any Tax
              which  Lessee may be  required  to  indemnify  against  hereunder,
              unless such Indemnitee  reasonable determines that furnishing such
              forms  may have an  adverse  effect on either  the  business,  tax
              status, tax liability or operations of such Indemnitee.

21. Insurance

21.1     Insurances

21.1.1        Lessee  shall,  at its own  expense,  maintain  in full  force and
              effect during the Lease Term insurances in respect of the Aircraft
              that,  subject to this Clause 21, comply with the requirements set
              out in Schedule 3 (the Insurances).

21.1.2        The Insurances  shall be effected through brokers of international
              standing and repute in the London or New York  aviation  insurance
              markets as may be  approved  by Lessor,  such  approval  not to be
              unreasonably withheld.

21.1.3        For the avoidance of doubt it is understood that the Insurances to
              be  provided  for by  Lessee  are not  Lessor's  sole  remedy  and
              protection  under this Agreement as the  obligations of Lessee are
              in excess of the requirements of the Insurances.

21.2     Reinsurance

              Any  reinsurance  will be maintained  with  reinsurers and brokers
              approved by Lessor, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld.
              Such reinsurance will contain each of the following terms and will
              in all  other  respects  (including  amount)  be  satisfactory  to
              Lessor:

          (i)  The same terms as the original insurance;

          (ii) A cut-through and assignment clause satisfactory to Lessor;

          (iii)Payment  will  be  made   notwithstanding   (a)  any  bankruptcy,
               insolvency,  liquidation  or  dissolution  of any of the original
               insurers  and/or  (b) that the  original  insurers  have  made no
               payment under the original insurance policies.

21.3     Requirements

              The current  requirements as to the Insurances are as specified in
              this  Clause 21 and in Schedule 3. Lessor and Lender may from time
              to time stipulate  other  requirements  for the Insurances so that
              (a) the scope and level of cover are  maintained in line with best
              international  airline  practice,  and (b) the interests of Lessor
              and Lender  continue to be  protected.  Lessee shall  procure that
              such changes are effected.

21.4     Insurance Covenants

              Lessee shall:

          (i)  ensure that all requirements as to insurance of the Aircraft, any
               Engine or any Part  which may from time to time be imposed by the
               laws of the State of  Registration  or any state to, from or over
               which  the  Aircraft  may be flown,  in so far as they  affect or
               concern the operation of the Aircraft, are complied with;

          (ii) comply  with the  terms  and  conditions  of each  policy  of the
               Insurances  and not do,  consent or agree to any act or  omission
               which:

               (a)  invalidates or may invalidate the Insurances; or

               (b)  renders or may render void or voidable the whole or any part
                    of any of the Insurances; or

               (c)  brings any particular  insured liability within the scope of
                    an exclusion or exception to the Insurances;

          (iii)not  make  any  modification  or  alteration  to  the  Insurances
               material and adverse to the interests of any of the  Indemnitees;
               (iv) be responsible for any deductible under the Insurances;

          (v)  provide any other  information  and  assistance in respect of the

               and the exposures of each of those  underwriters  which may carry
               the Insurances from time to time; and

          (vi) not create any  Security  Interests  over the  Insurances  except
               pursuant to the Assignment of Insurances;

          (vii)not use or keep or permit the  Aircraft or any part thereof to be
               used or kept for any  purpose,  in any manner or in any place not
               covered by the required policies;

          (viii) not cause or permit  the  Aircraft  or any part  thereof  to be
               employed  in any  place  or in any  manner  or  for  any  purpose
               inconsistent  with the terms or outside the cover provided by any
               required policy;

          (ix) not  knowingly  effect or  authorise  the  placement of insurance
               covering  the  same  subject   matter  as  that  covered  by  the
               Insurances (except on a contingent or other secondary basis); and

          (x)  furnish to Lessor:

               (a)  not  later  than  seven  (7)  days  prior  to the  Scheduled
                    Delivery  Date and  thereafter  within  seven (7) days after
                    each  renewal  date  of  each  policy,   a  certificate   or
                    certificates  signed by the insurers or the insurance broker
                    and  a  letter  of  undertaking  by  the  insurance   broker
                    providing  evidence of insurance  coverage  pursuant to this

               (b)  on request,  confirmation of payment by, or at the direction
                    of the  Lessor of each sum  payable  under or in  connection
                    with any required policy;

               (c)  on request,  such  evidence as the Lessor may require of the
                    Lessee's   compliance  with  its   obligations   under  this
                    Agreement; and

               (d)  any  notice  received  from the  insurers  or the  insurance
                    brokers (within three (3) Business Days of receipt) relating
                    to or in connection with any  cancellation of the Insurances
                    or any material alteration of the Insurances.

21.5     Renewal of Insurances

              Lessee shall commence renewal procedures at least thirty (30) days
              prior to expiry of any of the Insurances, and provide to Lessor:

               after each renewal date; and

          (iii)any  other  information  as  Lessor  may  reasonable  request  be
               provided  by the  insurance  broker  at least  fifteen  (15) days
               before such expiry.

21.6     Failure to Insure

              If Lessee fails to maintain the Insurances in compliance with this
Agreement, Lessee shall:

          (i)  forthwith  ground or cause to be grounded  the Aircraft and shall
               keep or procure  that the  Aircraft be kept  grounded  until such
               time as all the  Insurances  shall  again  be in full  force  and
               effect; and

          (ii) immediately notify Lessor of the non-compliance of the Insurances
               and provide Lessor with full details of any steps which Lessee is
               taking  or   proposes   to  take,   in  order  to   remedy   such
               non-compliance;

              and  each of the  Indemnitees  will  be  entitled  but not  bound,
              without  prejudice  to any  other  rights  of  Lessor  under  this
              Agreement:

               (a)  to pay the premiums due or to effect and maintain insurances
                    satisfactory  to Lessor  and  substantially  the same as the
                    Insurances  required  hereunder or otherwise remedy Lessee's
                    failure in such manner,  including to effect and maintain an
                    "owner's interest" policy, as Lessor considers  appropriate.
                    Any sums so expended by Lessor will become  immediately  due
                    and  payable  by  Lessee to Lessor  together  with  interest
                    thereon at the Default Rate, from the date of expenditure by
                    Lessor up to the date of reimbursement by Lessee; and

               (b)  at any time while such failure is  continuing to require the
                    Aircraft  to  remain at any  airport  or to  proceed  to and
                    remain at any airport designated by Lessor until the failure
                    is remedied to Lessor's satisfaction.

21.7     Continuation of Insurances

              Lessee  agrees to effect and  maintain  at Lessee's  cost  airline
              general third party  liability  insurances in the form required by
              this  Agreement for two (2) years after the Expiry Date whether or
              not  Lessee  or  Lessor  continues  to have  any  interest  in the
              Aircraft.

21.8     Application of Insurance Proceeds

              As between Lessor and Lessee:

          (i)  all  insurance  payments  received  as the result of a Total Loss
               occurring  during  the  Lease  Term  will be paid to Lessor or to
               Lender  pursuant  to the  terms  of any  security  given by Owner
               Trustee and Lessor;

          (ii) all insurance proceeds of any damage or loss to the Aircraft, any
               Engine  or  any  Part   occurring   during  the  Lease  Term  not
               constituting   a  Total   Loss  and  in  excess  of  the   Damage
               Notification  Threshold  will be paid to Lessor  and  applied  in
               payment  (or to  reimburse  Lessee)  for  repairs or  replacement
               property,  upon  Lessor  being  satisfied  that  the  repairs  or
               replacement have been effected in accordance with this Agreement;
               and

          (iii)notwithstanding  Clauses  21.8 (i) or 21.8 (ii) above,  if at the
               time of the payment of any such insurance  proceeds a Default has
               occurred and is continuing,  all such proceeds will be paid to or
               retained  by Lessor to be applied  toward  payment of any amounts
               which may be or become  payable by Lessee in such order as Lessor
               sees fit or as Lessor may elect.

21.9     Pursuit of Claims

              The parties  shall  co-operate  in the pursuit of any claims under
              the  Insurances.  In pursuing any such claims,  the parties  shall
              take  account  of each  others  interests  but,  if  there  is any
              material  disagreement  between  the parties in respect of how any
              such claim  shall be pursued,  the  interests  of Lessor  shall be
              paramount.

22. Total loss and requisition

22.1     Total Loss Prior to Delivery

              If a Total Loss occurs prior to  Delivery,  this  Agreement  shall
              immediately  terminate,  and  except as  expressly  stated in this
              Agreement  neither  party  will  have any  further  obligation  or
              liability under this  Agreement,  except that Lessor will repay to
              Lessee any prepaid Rent, the amount of Security Deposit,  if paid,
              and return the Letter of Credit under this Agreement.

22.2     Total Loss After Delivery

22.2.1        If a Total Loss occurs after Delivery, Lessee shall pay the Lessor
              on or prior to the earlier of:

          (i)  thirty (30) days after the Total Loss Date; and

          (ii) the date of  receipt  of  insurance  proceeds  in respect of such
               Total Loss,  the  aggregate  of (x) the Agreed Value and (y) Rent
               and all other amounts accrued under this Agreement to the date of
               payment and (z) interest on the Agreed Value  accruing on a daily
               basis at the Default Rate for the period,  if any, from the Total
               Loss Date to the date of payment.

22.2.2        Subject to the rights of any insurers or other third parties, upon
              irrevocable payment in full to  Lessor of the Agreed Value and all
              other amounts which may be or become payable to Lessor  under this
              Agreement, Lessor shall direct Owner Trustee to transfer to Lessee
              all of Owner Trustee's and Lessor's rights  (if any)  to  (x)  the
              Airframe or any Engines and Parts whether  or  not  installed when
              the Total Loss occurred, on  an  as-is  where-is basis and without
              recourse or warranty (save  as  to freedom from Lessor Liens), and
              Lessor shall procure the execution and delivery of such  bills  of
              sale  and  other  instruments  as Lessee may reasonably request to
              evidence such transfer, free and  clear  of  all  rights  of Owner
              Trustee and Lessor and (y) any other  rights  in  respect  of  the
              Aircraft  or  any  part  thereof  or  any  further  requisition or
              insurance proceeds in  respect  thereof.  Lessee  shall  indemnify
              Owner Trustee and Lessor for all fees, expenses and Taxes incurred
              by Owner Trustee and Lessor in connection with any such transfer.

22.2.3        If a Total Loss of the Aircraft or the Airframe occurs during  the
              Lease Term, Lessee's obligation to pay Rent shall continue in full
              force and effect until the date of payment of the Agreed Value and
              all other amounts due under this Agreement and upon payment of the
              Agreed Value and all other sums  due  under  this  Agreement,  the
              leasing of the Aircraft shall immediately terminate,  but  without
              prejudice to the continuing obligations of Lessee (as to indemnity
              or otherwise) under this Agreement; and Lessor and, if not already
              recovered, Lessee shall proceed diligently  and  co-operate  fully
              with each other in the recovery of the Total Loss Proceeds.

22.3     Total Loss of Engines

22.3.1        Upon an Engine  Total  Loss of any  Engine  not  installed  on the
              Aircraft,  or an Engine  Total Loss of an Engine  installed on the
              Airframe  not  involving a Total Loss of the  Airframe  (in either
              case, a Destroyed Engine), Lessee shall give Lessor prompt written
              notice  thereof and Lessee shall replace the  Destroyed  Engine as
              soon as  reasonably  possible  by  procuring  that  Owner  Trustee
              acquires,  at Lessee's expense,  title to another engine complying
              with the  requirements  of Clause 16.6.  Such  Replacement  Engine
              shall upon  acquisition  by Owner  Trustee be an Engine as defined
              herein.

22.3.2        Lessee agrees to take such action as Lessor may reasonably request
              in order that any such Replacement Engine shall be the property of
              Owner Trustee,  and  leased  hereunder  on  the  same terms as the
              Destroyed Engine. Lessee's obligation to pay Rent  shall  continue
              in full force and effect, but an amount equal to  the  Total  Loss
              Proceeds received by Lessor or Lender, as the case  may  be,  with
              respect to the Destroyed Engine, less any cost, expenses, Taxes or
              duties incurred in connection with the collection thereof,  shall,
              subject to Lessor's right to deduct therefrom any amounts then due
              and payable by Lessee under this Agreement, be paid to Lessee.

22.3.3        Immediately  upon  the  effectiveness  of such  substitution,  and
              without  further act, title to the replaced Engine shall thereupon
              vest in Lessee, in an as-is, where-is condition, free and clear of
              all rights and  Security  Interests of Owner  Trustee,  Lender and
              Lessor and shall no longer be deemed an Engine hereunder.

22.4     Requisition

22.4.1        During any requisition for use or hire of the Aircraft, any Engine
              or Part that does not constitute a Total Loss:

          (i)  the Rent and other amounts  payable under this Agreement will not
               be  suspended  or abated  either in whole or in part,  and Lessee
               will not be released from any of its other  obligations under the
               Agreement (other than  operational  obligations with which Lessee
               is unable to comply solely by virtue of the requisition);

          (ii) so long as no  Default or Event of Default  has  occurred  and is
               continuing,  Lessee  shall be  entitled  to any hire  paid by the
               requisitioning authority in respect of the Lease Term;

          (iii)Lessee shall,  as soon as  practicable  after the end of any such
               requisition,  cause  the  Aircraft  to be put into the  condition
               required by this Agreement.

22.4.2        If the Aircraft is under  requisition for hire at the Expiry Date,
              the leasing of the Aircraft  under this  Agreement  shall continue
              until the  earlier of (x) when the  Aircraft  becomes a Total Loss
              and Lessor  receives  the  Agreed  Value  together  with any other
              amounts then due and unpaid under this  Agreement and (y) when the
              Aircraft  is returned  prior to becoming a Total Loss,  and Lessee
              satisfies the Return Conditions provided that:

          (i)  the obligations of Lessee including in respect of payment of Rent
               including  Maintenance  Reserves,  if any, shall continue in full
               force and effect  until the  leasing  ends except that during the
               continuation  of the  requisition  for  hire  while  it does  not
               constitute a Total Loss,  Lessee shall be released  from those of
               its obligations  that it is prevented from performing as a result
               of the requisition of the Aircraft;

          (ii) unless a Total Loss has occurred (in which case Clause 22.2 shall
               apply),  Lessee  shall be obliged to  redeliver  the  Aircraft to
               Lessor in accordance with Clause 23;

          (iii)provided  no Default or Event of  Default is  continuing,  Lessee
               shall be entitled to receive and retain any requisition  payments
               made in respect of the Aircraft; and

          (iv) Lessee shall indemnify Lessor for any Losses which Lessor suffers
               (Lessor undertakes to use its reasonable best efforts to mitigate
               such  Losses) as a result of Lessee  returning  the  Aircraft  to
               Lessor after the Expiry Date.

23. Redelivery

23.1     Redelivery of Aircraft

              On the  Redelivery  Date,  Lessee  shall,  unless a Total Loss has
              occurred,  redeliver  the Aircraft  and the Aircraft  Documents to
              Lessor at Lessee's cost and expense at the Redelivery Location. If
              the Aircraft  has been  damaged and is being  repaired in a timely
              manner,  then the term of the lease will be extended  and Lessee's
              obligations  under this Agreement shall continue in full force and
              effect and during the  course of such  repair  and,  so long as no
              Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
              the Lessor will make  insurance  proceeds  available to accomplish
              such  repairs as  provided  in Clause  22.  When the  repairs  are
              completed,  the Aircraft shall be  redelivered  to Lessor.  At the
              time of the redelivery of the Aircraft:

          (i)  the Aircraft  shall be free and clear of all  Security  Interests
               other than Lessor Liens;

          (ii) all  maintenance to the Aircraft due for performance on or before
               the Redelivery  Date shall have been completed in accordance with
               this Agreement;

          (iii) the Aircraft shall be in compliance with the Return Conditions;

          (iv) the Aircraft shall comply with such other reasonable requirements
               as Lessor may request  that  Lessee has had timely  notice of and
               that  Lessor has agreed to pay for;  provided,  however,  that if
               compliance with Lessor's  request is the sole cause of a delay in
               the return of the  Aircraft  beyond the  Expiry  Date,  then Rent
               shall abate for the period of such delay solely  attributable  to
               Lessee's compliance with Lessor's request; and

          (v)  any service  bulletin kits which are allocated to the Aircraft at
               no charge by the  Manufacturer  and not delivered to Lessor as at
               the  Redelivery  Date will be shipped to a location  specified by
               Lessor at Lessee's cost.

              For the avoidance of doubt, Lessee will not be responsible for any
              inaccuracy  or  incompleteness  in  the  Aircraft  Documents  that
              pertains to any period prior to Delivery, provided always that the
              foregoing  shall not in any way be construed as a waiver by Lessor
              of Lessee's  obligations to keep, maintain and update the Aircraft
              Documents  during  the  Lease  Term in  accordance  with the other
              provisions of this Agreement.

23.2     Final Inspection

              Immediately prior to redelivery of the Aircraft, Lessee shall make
              the Aircraft available to Lessor for inspection (Final Inspection)
              at the  Redelivery  Location in order to verify that the condition
              of the Aircraft  complies  with the Return  Conditions.  The Final
              Inspection shall be long enough to permit Lessor to:

          (i)  inspect the Aircraft Documents;

          (ii) inspect the Aircraft and uninstalled Parts;

          (iii)inspect the Engines,  including  without  limitation  (i) a video
               boroscope  inspection  of (A) the low pressure and high  pressure
               compressors and (B) turbine area and (ii) engine condition runs.

23.3     Discrepancies

              Lessee shall repair all discrepancies  discovered during the Final
              Inspection  and  demonstration  flight,  which exceed  maintenance
              manual allowable  limits,  and shall correct all  discrepancies in
              the  Aircraft  Documents.   When  Lessee  has  complied  with  the
              provisions  of  this  Clause  23.3,  Lessee  shall  redeliver  the
              Aircraft to Lessor at Lessee's cost and expense at the  Redelivery
              Location.

23.4     Non-compliance

23.4.1        To the extent that, at the time of Final Inspection, the condition
              of the Aircraft does not comply with this Agreement (except Clause
              23.1 (iv)), Lessee shall at Lessor's option:

          (i)  immediately  rectify  the  non-compliance  and to the  extent the
               non-compliance extends beyond the Redelivery Date, the Lease Term
               will be automatically  extended until the non-compliance has been
               rectified  and  Lessee  shall be  required  to pay Rent to Lessor
               during  that  period at the rate equal to two (2) times the daily
               Basic Rent (Basic Rent per month  divided by thirty (30)) per day
               payable  monthly  or,  if  earlier,  on the  date  on  which  the
               non-compliance  is  rectified  and the return of the  Aircraft is
               accepted by Lessor; or

          (ii) redeliver  the  Aircraft  to Lessor  and  indemnify  Lessor,  and
               provide cash to Lessor in an amount  reasonably  satisfactory  to
               Lessor  as  security  for  that  indemnity,  against  the cost of
               putting  the  Aircraft  into  the  condition   required  by  this
               Agreement.

23.4.2        Lessor's option in Clause 23.4 is not available to Lessor provided
              that (i) Lessee has  notified  Lessor of its intent to rectify the
              non-compliance  prior to the Redelivery  Date and (ii) Lessee will
              in the  reasonable  opinion  of  Lessor  be able to  rectify  such
              non-compliance on or before Redelivery Date.

23.4.3        For the  avoidance  of  doubt,  Lessor  shall not be  entitled  to
              exercise its option under Clause 23.4.1 and Lessee shall suffer no
              loss or penalty to the extent that the Aircraft does not, on Final
              Inspection,  comply  with  Clause  23.1 (iv) but is  otherwise  in
              compliance with the Return Conditions.

23.5     Acknowledgement

              Provided  Lessee  has  complied  with its  obligations  under this
              Agreement,  following  redelivery  of the  Aircraft  by  Lessee to
              Lessor at the  Redelivery  Location,  the parties shall execute an
              acknowledgement   confirming   that  Lessee  has  redelivered  the
              Aircraft to Lessor in accordance with this Agreement substantially
              in the form of Schedule 13.

23.6     Storage etc.

              Notwithstanding  the  performance  in  full by  Lessee  of all its
              obligations  under this Clause 23,  Lessor may  require  Lessee to
              continue to lease the  Aircraft  from Lessor for a period of up to
              thirty (30) days from the Expiry Date. During this period,  Lessee
              will have no obligations  under this Agreement  except to park and
              store the Aircraft in accordance with  Manufacturer's  recommended
              short term storage program at one of Lessee's  storage  facilities
              and to continue  insurances in respect of the Aircraft at Lessee's
              cost. Such parking and storage is being made at the risk of Lessor
              and Lessee  shall  have no  liability  for  Losses  except for any
              Losses  arising  out  of  Lessee's  gross   negligence  or  wilful
              misconduct  arising during such period.  Lessee also agrees during
              this period to ferry/fly  the Aircraft to such  location as Lessor
              may require. Lessee will not otherwise utilise the Aircraft during
              this  period.  Any out of pocket  costs or  expenses  incurred  by
              Lessee  during  this  period  with  respect  to the  Aircraft  for
              storage,  insurance or such  ferry/flight  shall be  reimbursed by
              Lessor to Lessee  promptly after demand and upon receipt by Lessor
              of  an  invoice  and  documentation,  reasonably  satisfactory  to
              Lessor, of such costs and expenses.

24. Events of default

24.1     Notice

              Lessee will promptly  notify Lessor if Lessee becomes aware of the
              occurrence of any Default.

24.2     Events

              Each of the following  events will  constitute an Event of Default
              and a material breach of this Agreement:

          (i)  Non-payment:  Lessee fails to pay any amount  payable by it under
               the Transaction Documents or the Other Agreements in the currency
               in which  such sum fell due in  respect  of  payments  of Rent or
               Maintenance  Reserves,  if any, within three (3) Business Days of
               the due date for  payment  thereof  and,  in respect of any other
               payments, within five (5) Business Days of the date of receipt of
               written notice for payment thereof;

          (ii) Insurance: Insurance cover on or with respect to the Aircraft for
               the  benefit  of  Lessor  (and  any  additional  insured)  is not
               maintained in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or
               the  Aircraft  is operated  outside  the scope of such  insurance
               coverage; or

          (iii)Delivery:  Lessee  fails to take  Delivery of the  Aircraft  when
               obligated to do so under the terms of this Agreement; or

          (iv) Redelivery:  Lessee fails to return the Aircraft to Lessor on the
               Redelivery Date in accordance with Clause 23; or

          (v)  Breach:  Lessee defaults in the due performance and observance of
               any other obligations  contained in the Transaction Documents and
               such  default  is not  remedied  within  fourteen  (14)  days  of
               becoming aware of such default; or

          (vi) Representation: Any representation, warranty or statement made or
               deemed to be made by Lessee in the  Transaction  Documents  or in
               any certificate,  statement or opinion  delivered by it hereunder
               or in connection herewith is incorrect,  inaccurate or misleading
               in any  respect  which  Lessor  considers  material  when made or
               deemed  to be  made  or if the  effects  or  consequences  of the
               incorrect,  inaccurate or misleading representation,  warranty or
               statement  are  capable  of cure and  Lessee  fails to cure  such
               effects or  consequences  within twenty (20) days after  becoming
               aware of such default; or

          (vii)Approvals:   Any  governmental  or  other  consent,   license  or
               authorization required by law for the validity or legality of the
               Transaction Documents or the performance hereof or thereof (other
               than any such which may be  required to be obtained by Lessor) is
               withdrawn  or  ceases,  for any  reason,  to be in full force and
               effect or is not  renewed  or  obtained  when  required  and such
               withdrawal,   cessation,  non-renewal  or  non-obtaining  in  the
               opinion of Lessor may  prejudice  the rights of Lessor under this
               Agreement  or in the  reasonable  opinion  of  Lessor  may have a
               material  adverse  effect on Lessee's  obligation  to perform its
               obligations under this Agreement; or

          (viii) Registration:

               (a)  the  Registration of the Aircraft is cancelled other than as
                    a  result  of an  act  or  omission  of  Lessor  or  another
                    Indemnitee   including   Owner  Trustee  and  Lessor  or  an
                    affiliate of the Owner Trustee and Lessor;

               (b)  Lessee  ceases  to  be  an  US  Air  Carrier  authorised  to

                    United  States" within the meaning of the 14 Code of Federal
                    Regulations 47.9: or

          (ix) Possession:  Lessee  abandons  the  Aircraft or the  Engines,  or
               Lessee or any  Permitted  Air Carrier no longer has  unencumbered
               control  (other  than  Permitted  Liens)  or  possession  of  the
               Aircraft  or  Engines,  except  as  otherwise  permitted  by this
               Agreement; or

          (x)  Discontinuation:   Lessee   threatens   to  or   temporarily   or
               permanently  discontinues business or sells or otherwise disposes
               of all or substantially all of its assets; or

          (xi) Adverse Change: A material adverse change occurs in the financial
               condition of Lessee which in the reasonable opinion of Lessor may
               have a material  negative  impact on Lessee's  ability to perform
               its obligations hereunder; or

          (xii)Cross  Default:  Any  Financial  Indebtedness  of  Lessee  (in an
               aggregate  amount in excess of  US$1,000,000 or its equivalent in
               other currencies) becomes due and payable, or may be declared due
               and payable, prior to its stated maturity by reason of default by
               Lessee (having regard to any applicable grace period) or any such
               Financial  Indebtedness  is not paid on the due date for  payment
               thereof (as extended by any applicable grace period); or

          (xiii) Insolvency: Lessee is declared bankrupt or becomes insolvent or

               bankruptcy,   liquidation,   reorganisation  or  protection  from
               creditors  of  Lessee.  If  instituted  by  Lessee or done by the
               Lessee,  the  same  will be an  immediate  Event of  Default.  If
               instituted  by  another  person,  the  same  will be an  Event of
               Default if not dismissed,  remedied or relinquished within twenty
               (20) days; or

          (xv) Judgements:  Any  order,  judgement  or decree is  entered by any

               instituted  by Lessee or done by the Lessee,  the same will be an
               immediate Event of Default.  If instituted by another person, the
               same will be an Event of Default if not  dismissed,  remedied  or
               relinquished within twenty (20) days; or

          (xvi)Air Navigation  Charges:  Any competent  authority has unpaid Air
               Navigation Charges due from Lessee (unless such charges are being
               contested in good faith and by appropriate  proceedings  and such
               proceedings   do  not  involve  any  danger  of  the   detention,
               interference with the use or operation,  sale, forfeiture or loss
               of the Aircraft) and such charges remain  outstanding of a period
               of ten (10) days from the due date  thereof;  provided  that such
               ten (10) day grace  period will not apply if there is a danger of
               detention,   interference  with  the  use  or  operation,   sale,
               forfeiture or loss of the Aircraft; or

               faith and by appropriate  proceedings and such proceedings do not
               involve any danger of the detention, interference with the use or
               operation,  sale,  forfeiture  or loss of the  Aircraft) and such
               charges remain outstanding for a period of ten (10) days from the
               due date  thereof;  provided  that such ten (10) day grace period
               will not  apply if there is a danger of  detention,  interference
               with  the  use or  operation,  sale,  forfeiture  or  loss of the
               Aircraft;

          (xviii) Other  Default:  An Event of Default is continuing  unremedied
               under any Other  Agreement  between  Lessee and Lessor or another
               lessor or  sublessor  that  either (i)  shares  the same  general
               partner  or  controlling  shareholder  with  Lessor or (ii) whose
               beneficiary  shares  the  same  general  partner  or  controlling
               shareholder with Lessor; or

          (xix)Sublessee:  Any approved  sublessee acts so as to prevent present
               or future  performance  by Lessee of its  obligations  under this
               Agreement.

24.3     Lessor's Rights

24.3.1        Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default,  all rights of Lessee
              under  this  Agreement  and  with  respect  to the  Aircraft  will
              immediately  cease and  terminate,  but without  prejudice  to the
              continuing  obligations  of Lessee under this  Agreement.  Without
              prejudice  and in all cases in  addition  to any  other  rights of
              Lessor under this Agreement or under  applicable  law,  Lessor may
              upon the occurrence of any Event of Default exercise all or any of
              the following rights at its option:

          (i)  require that Lessee  immediately  move the Aircraft to a location
               specified by Lessor;

          (ii) for Lessee's  account do anything that may reasonably be required
               to cure any default and recover from Lessee all reasonable costs,
               including reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred in doing so
               and interest thereon at the Default Rate; or

          (iii)proceed  by  appropriate  court  action  or  actions  to  enforce
               performance  of this  Agreement  or to  recover  damages  for the
               breach of this Agreement; or

          (iv) enter upon the premises  where the Airframe or any or all Engines
               or any or all Parts are  located or  believed  to be located  and
               take immediate possession of and remove such Airframe,  Engine or
               Parts without the necessity for first instituting proceedings, or
               by summary  proceedings  or  otherwise,  and Lessee  shall comply
               therewith,  all without  liability  to Lessor for or by reason of
               such entry or taking  possession,  whether for the restoration or
               damage to property caused by such taking or otherwise;

          (v)  apply all or any portion of the Security  Deposit,  the Letter of
               Credit and any other security  deposit held by Lessor pursuant to
               any Other Agreements to any amounts due.

24.3.2        Whether  or  not  Lessor shall have exercised, or shall thereafter
              any timer exercise,  any  of its rights under Clause 24.3.1 (i) or
              (iv) above with respect  to  all or  any  part  of  the  Aircraft,
              Lessor,  by  written notice  to Lessee specifying payment date not
              earlier than  ten  (10)  days  from  the  date of such notice, may
              demand that Lessee pay to Lessor, and  Lessee shall pay Lessor, on
              the payment date specified in such notice  as  liquidated  damages
              and not as a penalty (in lieu of the instalments of Rent  due  for
              periods  commencing  on or after the payment date in such notice),
              any  unpaid  instalments  of  Rent  due  for  periods prior to the
              payment date specified in such notice plus  the  present  value of
              the remaining instalments of Rent during the Lease Term,  using in
              each case a discount rate of the amount of interest then  paid  on
              U.S. Treasury Bills of similar maturity. In addition, Lessee shall
              be liable for the amounts set forth in Clause 24.4 (ii) and (iii).

24.3.3        If an Event of  Default  occurs,  Lessor may sell or  re-lease  or
              otherwise  deal with the  Aircraft at such time and in such manner
              as  Lessor  considers  appropriate  in a  commercially  reasonable
              manner,  free  and  clear of any  interest  of  Lessee  as if this
              Agreement  had never been  entered into and as if Lessee had never
              made  any  payments  hereunder.  While  an  Event  of  Default  is
              continuing,  Lessee  will not  operate  the  Aircraft  without the
              consent of Lessor.

24.3.4        If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,  Lessor may
              take all steps necessary to de-register the Aircraft in and export
              the Aircraft from the State of Registration.

24.4     Default Payments

              Lessee shall be liable for:

          (i)  any and all  unpaid  Rent  due  hereunder  before  or  after  any
               termination hereof;

          (ii) any and all  unpaid  Supplemental  Rent due  hereunder  before or
               after any termination hereof;

          (iii)all   costs  and   expenses   (including   attorney's   fees  and
               disbursements)  incurred  by  Lessor in  connection  with or as a
               result of any Event of Default or exercise of remedies hereunder,
               including,  but not  limited  to,  (i)  all  costs  and  expenses
               incurred in connection with recovering possession of the Aircraft
               and in carrying out any works or modifications  required to place
               the  Aircraft  in the  condition  specified  in  Clause  23.1 and
               remarketing  the  Aircraft,  (ii) interest at the Default Rate on
               any amount not paid when due under  this  Agreement  and (iii) an
               amount  sufficient to fully compensate  Lessor for any loss of or
               damage to Lessor's residual interest in the Aircraft.

All costs and expenses referred to in the preceding sentence shall be payable by
Lessee upon demand by Lessor unless otherwise  specified in this Agreement.  All
such obligations  shall survive any termination of this Agreement or the leasing
of the Aircraft or any portion thereof hereunder.

24.5     Cumulative Rights

              Except as otherwise  expressly  provided above, no remedy referred
              to in this Clause 24 is intended to be  exclusive,  but each shall
              be  cumulative  and in  addition to any other  remedy  referred to
              above or otherwise  available  to Lessor at law or in equity.  The
              exercise or  beginning of exercise by Lessor of any one or more of
              such  remedies  shall  not  preclude  the  simultaneous  or  later
              exercise by Lessor of any or all such other  remedies.  No express
              or  implied  waiver by Lessor  of any Event of  Default  hereunder
              shall in any way be, or be construed to be, a waiver of any future
              or subsequent Event of Default.

25. Assignment and transfer

25.1     By Lessee

              No assignment, novation, transfer or Security Interest may be made
              by Lessee  in any of its  rights  with  respect  to the  Aircraft,
              Engine,  Parts, this Agreement or the other Transaction  Documents
              (other than Permitted Liens).

25.2     By Lessor

              Subject to Lessee's rights pursuant to this Agreement,  Lessor may
              at any time and without Lessee's consent sell,  assign or transfer
              its rights and interest  hereunder and under the other Transaction
              Documents to a third party,  (Lessor's  Assignee).  Lessor will in
              good faith  co-operate  with  Lessee to ensure  minimum  practical
              disturbance or cost in connection with such assignment or transfer
              of rights and interest  hereunder.  Lessee agrees to co-operate in
              good faith with Lessor in such sale,  assignment  or transfer  and
              provide  Lessor  and  Lessor's   Assignee  with  such   reasonable
              assistance  as Lessor may  require,  including  but not limited to
              assisting in any of Lessor's and  Lessor's  Assignee's  efforts to
              minimise or  eliminate  any Taxes  related to such  assignment  or
              transfer.  For a period  of two (2)  years  after any such sale or
              assignment  and at Lessee's  cost,  Lessee  will  continue to name
              Owner  Trustee,  Lessor  and  Lender  as  additional  insureds  in
              accordance with the insurance requirements set out in Clause 21.

25.3     Assignment to Lender

              Subject to Lessee's rights under this Agreement, Owner Trustee may
              at any time grant  Security  Interests  over the  Aircraft and the
              benefit of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and any
              other agreement  related to the Aircraft to any Lender as security
              for Owner  Trustee's  obligations to such Lender.  Owner Trustee's
              rights to grant any such Security  Interests shall be subject only
              to  receipt by Lessee of an  acknowledgement  from or on behalf of
              Lender  relating to quiet  enjoyment  by Lessee of the Aircraft as
              referred to in Clause 25.4.2.

25.4     Lessee Co-operation

25.4.1        On request by Lessor, Lessor's Assignee, Owner Trustee or  Lender,
              Lessee will, at Lessee's sole expense, promptly execute  all  such
              documents as Lessor, Lessor's Assignee, Owner  Trustee  or  Lender
              may reasonably require (including  such  estoppel  certificate  as
              referred to in Clause 12.4  to  confirm Lessee's obligations under
              this  Agreement  and  the  other Transaction Documents), to obtain
              Lessee's  confirmation  that no Default is outstanding and for the
              purpose of perfecting and  ensuring and maintaining the perfection
              of any  Security  Interest  granted  by  Owner  Trustee  over  the
              Aircraft,  this  Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or any
              other agreement related to  the  Aircraft.  Lessee  will  promptly
              provide  all  other  reasonable  assistance  and  co-operation  at
              Lessor's  expense  to  Lessor, Lessor's Assignee, Owner Trustee or
              Lender in connection with any  of  the matters referred to in this
              Clause 25  or  the  perfection  and  maintenance  of  any  related
              Security  Interest,  the  making  of  any necessary changes to the
              Insurances, the making of any necessary filings  and registrations
              in the State of Incorporation or the State of Registration  or the
              provision of any appropriate counsel's  opinions  in  relation  to
              Lessee's obligations.

25.4.2        Lessor will  obtain for the  benefit of Lessee an  acknowledgement
              from any  Lessor's  Assignee or Lender,  so long as no Default has
              occurred  and  is  continuing  hereunder,  such  person  will  not
              interfere with Lessee's  quiet,  peaceful use and enjoyment of the
              Aircraft,  substantially  in the form of Schedule 11 or such other
              form as Lessor's Assignee or Lender may reasonably require.

25.5     Lessor Includes Lessor's Assignee and Lender

              Wherever the term  "Lessor" is used in this  Agreement in relation
              to  any  of  the  provisions  relating  to  registration,   title,
              disclaimer,   indemnity  and  insurance  respectively,   the  term
              "Lessor" will be deemed to include Lessor's Assignee and Lender.

26. Miscellaneous provisions

26.1     Rights Cumulative, Waivers

              The rights of Lessor under this Agreement are  cumulative,  may be
              exercised  as often as  Lessor  considers  appropriate  and are in
              addition to Lessor's  rights  under the general law. The rights of
              Lessor  against  Lessee or in  relation to the  Aircraft,  whether
              arising  under this  Agreement  or the general  law,  shall not be
              capable  of being  waived or varied  otherwise  than by an express
              waiver or variation in writing;  and in particular  any failure to
              exercise or any delay in  exercising  any of such rights shall not
              operate as a waiver or  variation of that or any other such right;
              any defective or partial  exercise of any of such rights shall not
              preclude  any other or further  exercise of that or any other such
              right;  and no act or course of conduct or negotiation on Lessor's
              part or on its behalf shall in any way preclude it from exercising
              any such right or  constitute a suspension or any variation of any
              such right.

26.2     Delegation

              Lessor may  delegate  to any  person or persons  all or any of its
              rights, powers or discretions vested in it by this Agreement,  and
              any such delegation may be made upon such terms and conditions and
              subject to such  regulations  (including power to sub-delegate) as
              Lessor in its absolute discretion thinks fit.

26.3     Expenses

              So long  as the  Aircraft  is  tendered  for  Delivery  to  Lessee
              pursuant to this Agreement, Lessee shall pay to Lessor on demand:

          (i)  all  reasonable  expenses  including  legal,  professional,   and
               out-of-pocket   expenses   incurred   or  payable  by  Lessor  in
               connection  with  any  amendment  to or  extension  of  or  other
               documentation  requested  by Lessee in  connection  with,  or the
               granting  of any waiver or consent  under this  Agreement  or the
               monitoring of compliance  by Lessee with this  Agreement,  but in
               the case of such  monitoring  of  compliance,  only if upon  such
               monitoring Lessee is found to be in Default under this Agreement;
               and

          (ii) all expenses  including legal,  survey and other costs payable or
               incurred  by Lessor  following a Default in  connection  with the
               enforcement of or  preservation  of any of Lessor's  rights under
               this  Agreement,  or  in  respect  of  the  repossession  of  the
               Aircraft.

              All expenses payable pursuant to this Clause 26.3 shall be paid in
              the currency in which they are incurred by Lessor.

26.4     Time of Essence

              The time  stipulated in this  Agreement for all payments by Lessee
              to  Lessor  and for  the  prompt  performance  of  Lessee's  other
              obligations  under this  Agreement will be of the essence for this
              Agreement.

26.5     Entire Agreement

              The  Transaction  Documents  are the  sole and  entire  agreements
              between  Lessor  and  Lessee in  relation  to the  leasing  of the
              Aircraft,  and  supersede  all previous  agreements in relation to
              that leasing.

26.6     Further Assurances

              The parties shall take such action as Lessor and Lessee reasonably
              consider  to be in  furtherance  of the  commercial  intent of the
              parties  under  the  Transaction   Documents  including,   without
              limitation,  such action as may be  required  properly to transfer
              title to engines and parts as  contemplated  in this  Agreement in
              compliance  with the laws of the lex situs of the relevant  engine
              or part at the relevant time.

26.7     Language

              All notices to be given under this  Agreement  will be in English.
              All documents  delivered to Lessor pursuant to this Agreement will
              be in English  or, if not in  English,  will be  accompanied  by a
              certified  English  translation.  If  there  is any  inconsistency
              between the English  version of this  Agreement and any version in
              any other language, the English version will prevail.

26.8     Variation

              The  provisions of this  Agreement  shall not be varied or amended
              otherwise  than by an  instrument  in  writing  executed  by or on
              behalf of Lessor and Lessee.

26.9     Invalidity of any Provision

              If any provision of this  Agreement  becomes  invalid,  illegal or
              unenforceable in any respect under any law, the validity, legality
              and  enforceability  of the remaining  provisions shall not in any
              way be affected or impaired.

26.10    Survival

              All indemnities and other obligations of Lessee which arise or are
              attributable  to  circumstances  occurring  during  the Lease Term
              shall   survive,   and   remain   in  full   force   and   effect,
              notwithstanding  the  expiration  or  other  termination  of  this
              Agreement or the leasing of the Aircraft hereunder.

26.11    Reimbursement

              If Lessee  defaults in the  performance of any of its  obligations
              under this  Agreement  that can be  rectified  by the  spending of
              money,  Lessor shall be entitled (but not obliged) to expend money
              to rectify such matter and Lessee shall reimburse Lessor on demand
              the money so expended.  Any expenditure by Lessor pursuant to this
              Clause 26.11 shall not  prejudice  the rights of Lessor in respect
              of any Default or Event of Default.

26.12    Press Releases

              The  parties  will  give  copies to one  another,  in  advance  if
              possible, of all news, articles and other releases provided to the
              public media regarding this Agreement or the Aircraft.

26.13    Power of Attorney

              Lessee hereby irrevocably  appoints Lessor as its attorney for the
              purpose  of  putting  into  effect  the  intent of this  Agreement
              following an Event of Default,  including without limitation,  the
              return,  repossession,   deregistration  and  exportation  of  the
              Aircraft.  To evidence this  appointment,  Lessee has executed the
              power of  attorney in the form of Schedule 8. Lessee will take all
              steps  required  under  the laws of the State of  Registration  to
              provide such power of attorney to Lessor.

26.14    Usury Laws

              Notwithstanding  anything  to  the  contrary  in  the  Transaction
              Documents, Lessee will not be obligated to pay Default Interest or
              other  interest  in excess of the  maximum  non-usurious  interest
              rate, as in effect from time to time,  which may by applicable law
              be charged,  contracted  for,  reserved,  received or collected by
              Lessor in connection  with the Transaction  Documents.  During any
              period of time in which the then applicable highest lawful rate is
              lower than the Default Interest rate, Default Interest will accrue
              and be payable at such highest lawful rate;  however,  if at later
              times  such  highest  lawful  rate is  greater  than  the  Default
              Interest  rate,  then  Lessee  will pay  Default  Interest  at the
              highest  lawful rate until the Default  Interest  which is paid by
              Lessee equals the amount of interest which would have been payable
              in accordance with the interest rate set forth in Schedule 2.

26.15    Confidentiality

              The Transaction Documents and all non-public  information obtained
              by either party about the other are  confidential  and are between
              Lessor and Lessee only and the commercial terms and other material
              provisions of this  Agreement  will not be disclosed by a party to
              third parties  (other than to such party's  auditors,  lenders and
              legal  advisors)  without the prior  written  consent of the other
              party except in connection with  enforcement of rights  hereunder.
              If disclosure is required as a result of  applicable  law,  Lessee
              and Lessor will co-operate with one another to obtain confidential
              treatment as to the commercial terms and other material provisions
              of this Agreement; provided, however, if they are unable to obtain

26.16    Counterparts

              This  Agreement  may  be  executed  in  any  number  of  identical
              counterparts,  each of which will be deemed to be an original, and
              all of  which  together  will be  deemed  to be one  and the  same
              instrument  when each  party has  signed  and  delivered  one such
              counterpart   to  the  other   party.   Delivery  of  an  executed
              counterpart   of  this  Agreement  by  facsimile  will  be  deemed
              effective as delivery of an originally executed  counterpart.  Any
              party  delivering  an executed  counterpart  of this  Agreement by
              facsimile  will also deliver an originally  executed  counterpart;
              provided,  however,  the  failure  of  any  party  to  deliver  an
              originally executed  counterpart of this Agreement will not affect
              the validity or effectiveness of this Agreement.

26.17    Bankruptcy

              It is the  intention  of the  parties  that  the  Lessor  shall be
              entitled  to the  benefits  of 11 U.S.C  1110 with  respect to the
              right to  repossess  the  Airframe,  Engines and Parts as provided
              herein, and in any circumstances  where more than one construction
              of the terms and  conditions  of this  Agreement  is  possible,  a
              construction which would preserve such benefits shall control over
              any  construction  which would not preserve such benefits or would
              render them doubtful. To the extent consistent with the provisions
              of  11  U.S.C  1110  or  any  analogous  section  of  the  Federal
              bankruptcy  laws,  as  amended  from  time to time,  it is  hereby
              expressly  agreed and  provided  that,  notwithstanding  any other
              provisions of the Federal bankruptcy laws, as amended from time to
              time , any right of the Lessor to take  possession of the Aircraft
              in compliance  with the provisions of this Agreement  shall not be
              affected by the provisions of 11 U.S.C 362 or 363, as amended from
              time to  time,  or any  analogous  provisions  of any  superseding
              statute or any power of the bankruptcy court to enjoin such taking
              of possession. This Agreement is a true lease and not one intended
              as security.

                        FORM OF OPINION OF LESSEE COUNSEL

                          to be addressed to [ Lessor ]
                                       and
                                   [ Lender ]


We have acted as counsel in [ Country of Lessee ] as counsel to [ Name of Lessee
] ("Lessee") in connection  with an aircraft lease  agreement dated [ ] and made
between [ Name of Lessor ] as Lessor  and Lessee as the lessee in respect of one
[ Type of Aircraft ] bearing  manufacturer's  serial number [ ] (the "Aircraft")
(the  "Lease") and owned by Lessor,  and have  examined a copy of the  following
documents;

              (i)        the Lease;
              (ii)       the Acceptance Certificate;
              (iii)      the Letter(s) of Authority;
              (iv)       the Power of Authority;
              (v)        [ other documents ]; and
              (vi)       [     ]

and such other  documents  as we have  considered  it  necessary or desirable to

The  documents  referred  to  under  (i) to (v)  above  are  referred  to as the
"Relevant Documents".

Terms defined in the Lease shall have the same meaning herein.

On the basis on the foregoing we are of the opinion that:

(a)           Lessee is duly  incorporated in [ State ] for an indefinite period
              as a limited  company  and is a validly  existing  separate  legal
              entity,  which  is  subject  to  suit  in its  own  name,  in good
              standing, and, to the best of my knowledge, no steps have been, or
              are being,  taken to appoint a  receiver,  liquidator,  trustee or
              similar officer over Lessee,  or to wind up Lessee or commence any
              other  insolvency  proceedings  with  respect to Lessee or to have
              Lessee dissolved by merger;

(b)           Lessee has the corporate power to enter into and perform,  and has
              taken all necessary  corporate action to authorise the entry into,
              performance  and  delivery  of  the  Lease  and  the  transactions
              contemplated  by the  Lease and the  Lease  constitutes  the legal
              binding  obligations of the Lease,  enforceable against the Lessee
              in accordance with its terms;

(c)           the entry into and performance by Lessee of, and the  transactions
              contemplated by, the Lease does not and will not:

              (i)        conflict with any laws binding on Lessee; or

              (ii)       conflict with the constitutional documents of Lessee; o

              (iii)      result in the  creation of any Security  Interest  upon
                         any  property  of  Lessee,  pursuant  to any  mortgage,
                         chattel  mortgage,  deed of  trust,  conditional  sales
                         contract,  bank  loan or  credit  agreement,  corporate
                         charter,  by-law or other  agreement or  instrument  to
                         which  Lessee  is a party  or by  which  Lessee  or its
                         properties or assets may be bound or affected;

(d)           Lessee  has  obtained  all  authorizations,   consents,  licences,
              approvals  and  registrations  necessary  to be obtained  from any
              governmental  or  other  regulatory  authorities  in [  State ] to
              enable Lessee:

              (i)        to enter into and perform the transactions contemplated
                         by the Lease;

              (ii)       to import the Aircraft into [ State ];

              (iii)      to conduct  commercial  air transport with the Aircraft
                         in,  to and  from [  State  ] in  accordance  with  the
                         applicable [ State's ] rules and regulations;

              (iv) to effect all payments provided for in the Lease.

(e)           no registration,  recording,  filing or notarisation in any public
              office or elsewhere in [ State ]  is necessary  and  no payment of
              any   tax    or   duty   is  necessary  to  ensure  the  validity,
              enforceability or  admissibility  in evidence of the Lease, or the
              priority, if any, of the respective  rights  of  Lessor and Lender
              under the Lease other than [please advise if  applicable]  and  no
              other   instrument    is   required   to   ensure   the  priority,
              enforceability and validity of the obligations of Lessee under the
              Lease and the Lease is in proper legal  form  under  the  laws  of
              [ State ] for the  enforcement  thereof,  if  applicable,  in  the
              courts of [ State ];

(f)           the  Aircraft  may be  registered  on  the [  State's  ]  aircraft
              registry in the name of Lessor and no other steps are necessary or
              desirable  to record or perfect  either  Lessor's  interest in the
              Aircraft in [ State ];

(g)           a mortgage  over the  Aircraft may be  registered  on the aircraft
              registry in [State] and with [ Name of authority ] for the benefit
              of  Lessor  and will  upon  registration  constitute  a valid  and
              perfected security over the Aircraft under the laws of [ State ];

(h)           upon  termination  of the  Lease  in  accordance  with  its  terms
              (whether  on  expiry  or  earlier  termination)  Lessor  would  be
              entitled:

              (i)        to repossess the Aircraft without requiring any further
                         permissions or approvals of any regulatory authority in
                         [ State ];

              (ii)       to  de-register  the  Aircraft  from  the  register  of
                         aircraft  maintained  by the Aviation  Authority and to
                         export the  Aircraft  from [ State ] without  requiring
                         any further  permissions  or approvals of any authority
                         in [ State ] or any  further  regulators  consent  from
                         Lessee or any third party,  provided no  mortgages  are
                         registered  over  the  Aircraft,   in  which  case  the
                         mortgagees have to consent to the de-registration;

(i)           the Relevant  Documents have been properly signed and delivered on
              behalf  of  Lessee  and the  obligations  on the  part  of  Lessee

              to the laws of  Sweden,  are  valid  and  legally  binding  on and
              enforceable  against Lessee under the laws of [ State ] and in the
              courts of [ State ];

(j)           the obligations of Lessee under the Relevant Documents are direct,
              general  and  unconditional,  and rank or will rank at least  pari

              un-subordinated  obligations of Lessee, with the exception of such
              obligations as are mandatorily  preferred by law and not by reason
              of any security interest;

(k)           under  the laws of [ State ] the  execution  and  delivery  of the
              Relevant  Documents,  and  the  carrying  out of the  transactions
              thereby  contemplated  and the observance  and  performance by all
              parties of their respective obligations thereunder do not and will
              not result in any  prejudice to or  impairment  or  diminution  of
