     4.3  DELAYED DELIVERY

                    arising from or in connection with such delay or failure;
                    and

               (b)  Lessee will not be entitled to terminate this Agreement or
                    to reject the Aircraft when tendered for delivery by Lessor

          as a result of such failure by Lessee, and will also be liable to make
          payment to Lessor of Rent commencing on the date and otherwise as

          Aircraft to Lessor, either directly or indirectly, from Manufacturer
          and (2) Lessee having fulfilled all of the conditions precedent to
          delivery set out in Clause 3. Lessee will effect acceptance of the
          Aircraft by execution and delivery to Lessor of the duly completed and
          executed Certificate of Acceptance substantially in the form of Part 1
          of Schedule 2. After delivery of the Aircraft to Lessee, Lessee will
          bear all risk of loss, theft, damage or destruction to the Aircraft
          from any causes whatsoever until the Aircraft is redelivered to Lessor
          (including, for the avoidance of doubt, during the installation or
          completion of any "Post-Production Modifications" listed in Part 4 of
          Schedule 1 after such delivery).

     4.6  POST-PRODUCTION MODIFICATION

          Promptly following delivery of the Aircraft to Lessee hereunder,
          Lessee shall cause to be accomplished the post-production
          modifications described in Part 4 of Schedule 1. Such post-production
          modifications shall be made pursuant to a written agreement and by an
          entity that are reasonably satisfactory to Lessor. The cost of such
          post-production modifications for which Lessor shall be responsible
          shall be a fixed amount set forth in the written agreement which
          amount shall be subject to the Modification Limit. While such
          post-production modifications are being made, all of the terms of this
          Agreement, including Lessee's obligation to pay Rent, shall be and
          remain in full force and effect. Upon completion of such
          post-production modifications and submission of related invoices and
          other documentation reasonably requested by Lessor, Lessor shall
          either pay such invoices directly or, if already paid by Lessee,
          reimburse Lessee for the cost thereof, in either case up to the
          Modification Limit less the net costs of the modifications described
          in Part 3 of Schedule 1.

     4.7  DEREGISTRATION

          Upon satisfaction of all the conditions precedent set forth in Clause
          3.3, Lessor shall request the FAA to deregister the Aircraft. Lessee
          shall be responsible for the prompt payment of all Taxes, fees, costs
          and expenses, including Lessor's reasonable legal fees, relating to
          all actions taken in connection with the deregistration of the
          Aircraft with the FAA and with the registration of the Aircraft with
          the Directorate of Civil Aeronautics of Panama, and the recordation of
          this Agreement and of Lessor's title to the Aircraft with the Office
          of the Public Registry of Panama, up to a maximum amount of $50,000.

5.   PAYMENTS

     5.1  CASH DEPOSIT, DEPOSIT LETTER OF CREDIT AND SUPPLEMENTAL RENT LETTER OF
          CREDIT

          5.1.1 Lessee shall deliver to Lessor the Cash Deposit. This Agreement
               shall be cross-collateralized with any Sister Lease, with respect
               to the Cash Deposit and with respect to any such collateral under
               any such Sister Lease.

          5.1.2 Upon execution of this Agreement, Lessee shall provide Lessor
               with the Deposit Letter of Credit in the amount of the Deposit
               Letter of Credit Execution Amount, payable in favor of Lessor,
               issued or confirmed by a first class American or European bank
               reasonably acceptable to Lessor, and drawable in the USA. At any
               time after the Deregistration Date, at Lessee's option, the
               amount of the Deposit Letter of Credit may be increased by the
               amount of the Cash Deposit; the Cash Deposit shall be returned to
               Lessee promptly after any such increase in the amount of the
               Deposit Letter of Credit becomes effective. The Deposit Letter of
               Credit shall be further increased on or prior to the Delivery
               Date by an amount equal to the Deposit Letter of Credit Delivery
               Amount. The Deposit Letter of Credit shall be irrevocable, and
               shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lessor.

          5.1.3 Lessor may upon the occurrence of an Event of Default which is
               continuing apply all or any portion of the Cash Deposit and/or
               draw down the Deposit Letter of Credit in accordance with its
               terms in whole or in part at any time or times until the later of
               10 Business Days after Redelivery and until all of Lessee's
               obligations under this Agreement have been fulfilled to satisfy
               any liabilities of Lessee to Lessor under this Agreement and
               under any Sister Lease.

          5.1.4 Prior to delivery of the Aircraft hereunder, Lessee shall
               provide Lessor with the Supplemental Rent Letter of Credit in the
               initial amount specified in the definition of Supplemental Rent
               Letter of Credit Amount, payable in favor of Lessor, issued or
               confirmed by a first class American or European bank reasonably
               acceptable to Lessor, and drawable in the USA. The Supplemental
               Rent Letter of Credit shall be increased on the dates and in the
               amounts specified in the definition of Supplemental Rent Letter
               of Credit Amount. The Supplemental Rent Letter of Credit shall be
               irrevocable, and shall be in form and substance reasonably
               acceptable to Lessor.

          5.1.5 If Lessee shall fail to pay Supplemental Rent due and owing
               hereunder on the Expiry Date, or if Lessee shall fail to comply
               with the requirements of Clause 12 and Schedule 4 upon the
               expiration or the earlier termination of the Term as provided
               hereunder, Lessee may draw down the Supplemental Rent Letter of
               Credit in whole or in part to satisfy such obligations of


                                     PAGE 31

<PAGE>

               Lessee hereunder. The Supplemental Rent Letter of Credit may be
               drawn solely for the purposes set forth in this Clause 5.1.5.

          5.1.6 In the event that any amount of the Cash Deposit is applied or
               the Deposit Letter of Credit is drawn down by Lessor, Lessee
               shall within 10 Business Days of receipt of notice of any such
               application of the Cash Deposit or draw down provide for the
               delivery of additional amounts of Cash Deposit and/or an
               additional letter of credit or an amendment to the Deposit Letter
               of Credit complying with the above requirements so as to restore
               the amounts of the Cash Deposit and/or the amount undrawn under
               the Deposit Letter of Credit to the original amount.

          5.1.7 Clauses 4.3(4)(b), 5.1.2, 7.3 and 11.1 set forth the separate
               obligations of Lessor to return to Lessee the Letters of Credit
               and to refund to Lessee amounts in respect of the Cash Deposit in
               certain circumstances.

          5.1.8 Lessee agrees that subject to Clauses 4.3(4)(b), 5.1.2, 7.2 and
               11.1 and to Lessee's rights at law and in equity, all right,
               title and interest in any Cash Deposit paid by Lessee to Lessor
               pursuant to this Clause 5 shall vest in the recipient absolutely,
               irrevocably and unconditionally free and clear of any liens,
               claims, charges or encumbrances or any other interest of Lessee
               or of any third person.

          5.1.9 Any interest earned with respect to the Cash Deposit or any draw
               down of a Letter of Credit shall be for Lessor's account, free
               and clear of any claims, charges or any interest of Lessee.

          5.1.10 Lessee shall cause the Letters of Credit, in the respective
               amounts then required to be maintained by the terms of this
               Agreement, to be replaced or renewed from time to time in order
               that they remain in full force and effect through the date
               fifteen (15) days after the Expiry Date as required hereunder,
               and shall deliver to Lessor a replacement or renewal letter of
               credit at least 10 days prior to the date on which a Letter of
               Credit is to expire. If Lessee shall fail to deliver to Lessor a
               replacement or renewal letter of credit at least 10 days prior to
               the date on which the applicable Letter of Credit is to expire,
               Lessor may drawdown the full amount of such Letter of Credit and
               hold it for application in the same manner as in the case of the
               Cash Deposit. In any such case, if Lessee delivers a replacement
               letter of credit satisfying the requirements of this Agreement,
               Lessor shall return to Lessee the principal amount of such
               drawdown, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred
               and is continuing.

     5.2  RENT

          5.2.1 TIME OF PAYMENT: Lessee will pay to Lessor or its order Rent on
               the first Rent Date and in advance on each subsequent Rent Date.
               Payment must be initiated adequately in advance of each Rent Date
               to ensure that Lessor


                                     PAGE 32

          5.2.2 RENTAL PERIODS: The first Rental Period will commence on the
               Delivery Date and end on the fourteenth (14th) day of the second
               month following the Delivery Date. The second Rental Period will
               commence on the fifteenth (15th) day of the second month
               following the Delivery Date, with each subsequent Rental Period
               commencing on the fifteenth (15th) day of each subsequent month
               for the duration of the Term. The last Rental Period shall end on
               the Expiry Date.

     5.3  SUPPLEMENTAL RENT

          5.3.1 PAYMENT: Upon Redelivery of the Aircraft to Lessor at the time
               and in the manner provided hereunder, Lessee shall make a single
               payment to Lessor of Supplemental Rent in respect of Aircraft
               usage during the Term.

          5.3.2 CALCULATION:

               (1)  Not less than six (6) months prior to the scheduled Expiry
                    Date, Lessee shall provide to Lessor sufficient industry
                    estimates, reasonably satisfactory to Lessor, to enable
                    Lessor and Lessee to calculate the estimated amount of
                    Supplemental Rent payable by Lessee on Redelivery, such
                    estimates to be based on Lessee's actual utilization of the
                    Aircraft during the first 54 months of the Term. Such data
                    shall include bona fide, arm's length market estimates from
                    not fewer than three (3) mutually acceptable,
                    internationally recognized aircraft maintenance providers of
                    the cost of providing to Lessor or to another third party,
                    other than Lessee or Continental Airlines, Inc., (i) a block
                    D-Check, including a lower level check on the Airframe, (ii)
                    a full restoration shop visit of each Engine, and (iii) a
                    complete overhaul of the APU and the Landing Gear, including
                    in each case all routine and non-routine work, material,
                    labor and reasonable handling charges prevailing at the
                    time, but excluding the cost of any replacement of Life
                    Limited Parts (each of the Airframe, each Engine, the APU
                    and the Landing Gear referred to as a "Component," and each
                    of the respective costs described in subclauses (i) through
                    (iii) referred to as a "Check/Overhaul Cost," for purposes
                    of this Clause 5.3.2). Prior to the Expiry Date, Lessor and
                    Lessee shall discuss in good faith, and agree on, the
                    applicable Check/Overhaul Cost for each Component.

               (2)  On the Expiry Date, Lessee shall pay to Lessor Supplemental
                    Rent in respect of each Component in an amount equal to the
                    product of (i) the Check/Overhaul Cost, times (ii) the
                    result of (A) the time since such Component was new or since
                    such Component had a full


                                     PAGE 33

<PAGE>

                    restoration shop visit or complete overhaul, divided by (B)
                    the mean time between overhaul ("Interval") for such
                    Component as defined or estimated by the manufacturer of
                    such Component, adjusted for the actual utilization of such
                    Component by Lessee during the last six (6) months of the
                    Term and as provided in clause (3) below.

               (3)  The amount of Supplemental Rent calculated in accordance
                    with clause (2) above shall be adjusted by deducting from
                    the aggregate amount so calculated an amount equal to the
                    sum of the Check/Overhaul Cost allocable to the first 20% of
                    the Interval for each Component, provided that any such
                    aggregate adjustment shall not result in a negative number
                    and in no event shall Lessor be obligated to make any
                    payment to Lessee under this Clause 5.3.2.

               (4)  On the Expiry Date, if the time remaining on the life of any
                    Life Limited Part is less than 80%, Lessee shall pay to
                    Lessor an amount equal to the product of (i) the actual cost
                    to replace such Life Limited Part, times (ii) the
                    difference, expressed as a percentage of the life of such
                    Life Limited Part, between (A) 80% and (B) the time
                    remaining on the life of such Life Limited Part expressed as
                    a percentage. If the time remaining on the life of any Life
                    Limited Part is more than 80%, Lessee shall receive a credit
                    against any amounts then owing by it under clauses (2) and
                    (3) above in an amount equal to the product of (i) the cost
                    to replace such life Limited Part as determined above, times
                    (ii) the difference, expressed as a percentage of the life
                    of such Life Limited Part, between (A) 20% and (B) the time
                    used on such Life Limited Part since new, expressed as a
                    percentage.

     5.4  PAYMENTS

          5.4.1 All payments by Lessee to Lessor under this Agreement will be
               made for value on the due date in Dollars, and if in relation to
               amounts incurred by Lessor other than in Dollars, in the Dollar
               equivalent advised by Lessor's bankers, and in same day funds
               settled through the New York Clearing House System or such other
               funds as may for the time being be customary for the settlement
               in New York City of international payments in Dollars by
               telegraphic transfer to the Payment Account. Lessee shall make
               all arrangements in advance to ensure that payment is received as
               above by Lessor on the due date.

          5.4.2 All payments by Lessor to Lessee under this Agreement will be
               made by telegraphic transfer to the Payment Account in Dollars,

               Dollars, in the Dollar equivalent advised by Lessor's bankers.

     5.5  GROSS-UP

          5.5.1 All payments by Lessee under or in connection with this
               Agreement will be made without set-off or counterclaim, free and
               clear of and without deduction for or on account of any or all
               Taxes.

          5.5.2 All Taxes in respect of payments under this Agreement shall be
               for the account of and will be paid by Lessee prior to the date
               on which penalties apply, except to the extent that such payment
               is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, in
               respect of which adequate reserves have been provided by Lessee
               and non-payment of which does not give rise to any material
               likelihood of the Aircraft or any interest therein being sold,
               forfeited or otherwise lost or of criminal liability on the part
               of Lessor.

          5.5.3 If Lessee is compelled by law to make payment subject to any Tax
               and Lessor or Beneficiary does not actually receive for its own
               benefit on the due date a net amount equal to the full amount
               provided for under this Agreement, Lessee will pay all necessary
               additional amounts to ensure receipt by Lessor of the full amount
               so provided for.

     5.6  TAXES AND OTHER PAYMENTS

          Except as may be otherwise expressly provided herein, Lessee will
          promptly pay, or promptly after demand indemnify Lessor and
          Beneficiary against:

          (1)  all Taxes and other fees or charges of any nature imposed by any
               Government Entity or other person including any airport or
               provider of service with respect to this Agreement, including
               without limitation the delivery, leasing, possession, use,
               operation, maintenance, storage, return or replacement of any
               Engine or Part or any other disposition or dealing by Lessee with
               or relating to the Aircraft during the Term; and

          (2)  all rent, fees, charges, Taxes and other amounts in respect of
               any premises where the Aircraft or any Part thereof is located
               from time to time;

          except to the extent that such payment is being contested in good
          faith by appropriate proceedings, in respect of which adequate
          reserves have been provided by Lessee and non-payment of which does
          not give rise to any material likelihood of the Aircraft or any
          interest therein being sold, forfeited or otherwise lost or of
          criminal liability on the part of Lessor.

     5.7  VALUE ADDED TAX

          5.7.1 For the purposes of this sub-clause:

               (1)  "VAT" means value added tax and any sales or turnover tax,

                    Taxes); and

<PAGE>

               (2)  "supply" includes anything on which VAT is chargeable.

          5.7.2 Lessee will pay to Lessor or the relevant taxing authority, as
               the case may be, the amount of any VAT chargeable in respect of
               any supply for VAT purposes under this Agreement.

          5.7.3 Each amount stated as payable by Lessee under this Agreement is
               exclusive of VAT (if any) and is accordingly to be construed as a
               reference to that amount plus any VAT in respect of it.

     5.8  INFORMATION

          If Lessee is required by any applicable law, or by any third party, to
          deliver any report or return in connection with any Taxes, Lessee
          will, to the extent the same shall be pertinent, state therein that
          Lessee is exclusively responsible for the use and operation of the
          Aircraft and for any Taxes arising therefrom and Lessee will on
          request supply a copy of the report or return to Lessor. Lessor shall
          provide Lessee with such information in the possession of Lessor or
          otherwise reasonably available to it as Lessee may reasonably request
          to fulfill its tax filing requirements under this Clause 5.8 and any
          audit information request arising in connection with the Taxes subject
          to this Clause 5. If any report or return is required to be made with
          respect to any obligations of Lessee under this Clause 5, Lessee will
          make such report or return, provided that Lessee shall have no
          obligation to file any such return or report if (A) Lessor, after
          Lessee's written request therefor, shall have failed to furnish Lessee
          with such information as is peculiarly within the control of, or
          reasonably available to Lessor and is necessary for the filing of such
          report or return, or (B) such return or report would or should have
          been filed by Lessor even if it had not entered into this Agreement.

     5.9  TAXATION OF INDEMNITY PAYMENTS

          5.9.1 If and to the extent that any sums payable to an 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 will pay to such
               Indemnitee such sum as will after the Tax liability has been
               fully satisfied leave such Indemnitee with the same amount as it
               would have been entitled to receive in the absence of that
               liability, together with interest on the amount of the deficit at
               the rate of interest stated in Clause 5.10 (both before and after
               judgment) in respect of the period commencing on the date on
               which the payment of the Tax is finally due until payment by
               Lessee.

          5.9.2 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


                                    PAGE 36

<PAGE>

               such Indemnitee are treated as taxable in the hands of such
               Indemnitee, Lessee will pay to such Indemnitee, within 5 Business
               Days of a written demand accompanied by reasonable evidence of
               liability, 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.

     5.10 DEFAULT INTEREST

          If Lessee fails to pay any amount payable under this Agreement or
          another Lessee Document on the due date, Lessee will pay on demand
          from time to time to Lessor or such other party as shall have a right
          thereto interest (both before and after judgment) on that amount, from
          the due date to the date of payment in full by Lessee to Lessor or
          such other party, at the rate calculated by Lessor to be 3% per cent
          per annum plus LIBOR at the rate quoted for the period closest to the
          length of time from such due date to such payment date. All such
          interest will be compounded monthly and calculated on the basis of the
          actual number of days elapsed and a 360 day year.

     5.11 CONTEST

          If a claim is made in writing against any Lessor (whether on audit or
          otherwise) or if Lessee disputes the amount of any Tax payable by
          Lessor for which Lessee is required to reimburse or indemnify
          hereunder for any Taxes that Lessee is required to pay or indemnify
          against pursuant to Clause 5.6, Lessor shall notify Lessee in writing
          within 10 Business Days of the receipt of such claim, provided that a
          failure to so notify will not diminish or relieve Lessee of any
          obligations under Clause 5.6, except to the extent Lessee is entitled
          to contest or to cause Lessor to contest such Taxes and Lessee's or
          Lessor's successful defense of such claim is materially prejudiced or
          precluded thereby. If the amount of the claim exceeds $25,000 and if
          requested by Lessee in accordance with this Clause 5.11 and in writing
          within 30 Business Days after receipt by Lessee of the notice
          described in the preceding sentence, Lessor shall in good faith and
          with due diligence contest (including pursuing administrative and
          judicial appeals) in the name of Lessor or, if permitted by law and
          requested by Lessee in the name of Lessee, the validity, applicability
          or amount of such Taxes in appropriate administrative or judicial
          proceedings to be determined by Lessor, provided that (1) prior to
          taking such action, Lessee shall have agreed to pay Lessor all
          out-of-pocket costs and expenses that Lessor may incur in connection
          with contesting such claim, including, without limitation, all
          reasonable legal and accountant's fees and disbursements and costs of
          administrative and judicial proceedings, and the amount of any
          interest or penalties that may be attributable to and payable as a
          result of contesting such claim (or, at Lessor's request, Lessee shall
          advance to Lessor funds with which to pay the foregoing amounts, and
          Lessor's obligation to contest any Tax shall be suspended during any
          period Lessee does not advance sufficient funds to pay such amounts as
          they accrue or become payable), (2) if such contest is to be initiated
          by the payment of, and the claiming of a refund for such Taxes (and
          any interest and penalties that also must be paid), Lessee shall have
          advanced Lessor sufficient funds (on an interest-free basis)


                                    PAGE 37

<PAGE>

          to make such payment, (3) no Event of Default has occurred and is
          continuing, (4) the action to be taken will not result in a material
          risk of sale, forfeiture or loss of Lessor's title to the Aircraft
          (unless Lessee provides a bond or other security satisfactory to
          Lessor), (5) at Lessor's request, Lessee shall provide to Lessor a
          written opinion in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
          Lessor of independent legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to Lessor
          that there is a reasonable basis for such contest and (6) Lessee
          acknowledges and agrees, in writing, that in the event such contest is
          unsuccessful Lessee shall fully indemnify Lessor against such Taxes
          (and any related interest and penalties). Notwithstanding that the
          conditions set forth in clauses (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) above
          may have been satisfied, Lessor, after consulting in good faith with
          Lessee, may elect not to pursue any contest or proceeding pursuant to
          the preceding sentence or elect to discontinue (by settlement or
          otherwise) any such contest or proceeding commenced pursuant to the
          preceding sentence, but such election shall constitute a waiver by
          Lessor of any right to payment or indemnification pursuant to Clause
          5.6 with respect to the adjustment that was the subject of such
          proposed contest or proceeding (and any other adjustment the contest
          of which is precluded by such failure to contest) and, if Lessee has
          theretofore paid or provided Lessor with funds to pay any amount with
          respect to such adjustment, Lessor shall promptly repay such amount to
          Lessee. If Lessor shall obtain a refund in whatever form of all or any
          part of any Taxes that Lessee shall have paid or reimbursed to Lessor
          hereunder, Lessor shall, provided that no Event of Default shall have
          occurred and be continuing, pay to Lessee an amount that is equal to
          the sum of the amount of such refund or credit, plus any interest
          received on such refund fairly attributable to any Taxes paid by or
          with funds provided by Lessee prior to receipt of such refund, reduced
          by any Taxes incurred by Lessor by reason of the receipt or accrual of
          such refund and interest and net of any expenses described above that
          have not been previously reimbursed, and increased by any Tax benefit
          realized by Lessor as a result of any payment by Lessor made pursuant
          to this sentence, provided further that, if, at the time of such
          payment an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
          Lessor shall hold the amount of such payment as security for the
          obligations of Lessee to Lessor under the Lease, and at such time as
          there shall not be continuing any such Event of Default, shall pay
          such amount to the Lessee. Lessor hereby agrees that it will inform
          Lessee of the time and place of, and Lessor will not object to
          Lessee's presence at, any proceeding conducted pursuant to this clause
          5.11, provided that Lessor shall be entitled to conduct any
          proceedings in respect of taxes for which Lessee is not obligated to
          indemnify Lessor outside the presence of Lessee and Lessee's presence
          also must be allowed by applicable law and provided further that the
          conditions set forth in clauses (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) above
          shall have been, and shall continue to be, satisfied.

     5.12 COMPUTATIONS

          At Lessee's request, the computation by Lessor of any amount payable
          by Lessee pursuant to this Clause 5 shall be verified by an
          independent accounting firm of national reputation selected by Lessor.
          The fees of such accountants shall be paid by Lessee unless such
          accountants determine that the amount payable to Lessee is at


                                    PAGE 38

<PAGE>

          least 25% more, or the amount payable by Lessee is at least 25% less,
          than the amount computed by Lessor, in which case such fees shall be
          payable by Lessor.

     5.13 PAYMENTS ABSOLUTE

          Lessee's obligations under this Agreement as to payment are absolute
          and unconditional irrespective of any contingency whatsoever including
          (but not limited to):

          (1)  any right of set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other
               right which either party to this Agreement may have against the
               other;

          (2)  any unavailability of the Aircraft for any reason, including, but
               not limited to, a 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;

          (3)  any defect in 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 Event of Loss in respect of, or any damage to, the Aircraft;

          (4)  any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
               readjustment of debt, dissolution, liquidation, examination or
               similar proceedings by or against Lessee;

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

          (6)  any other cause which 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.

          Nothing in this Clause 5.13 shall be construed to prohibit Lessee from
          separately pursuing any claim that it may have from time to time
          against Lessor or any other Person with respect to any matter,
          provided that any such claim shall not contest the applicability or
          enforceability of the foregoing provisions of this Clause 5.13.

6.   MANUFACTURERS' WARRANTIES

     6.1  BENEFIT OF WARRANTIES

          Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
          Lessor agrees to make available to Lessee such rights as Lessor may
          have under any warranty with respect to the Aircraft of any Engine
          made by the Manufacturer or the Engine Manufacturer, respectively,
          pursuant to their respective standard assignment forms. To the extent
          that any warranties and/or rights (if any), express or implied, with


                                    PAGE 39

<PAGE>

          respect to or otherwise related to the Aircraft, any Engine or any
          Part from the Manufacturer, the Engine Manufacturer or any other
          manufacturer, vendor, subcontractor or supplier to Lessor, are not
          directly assignable by Lessor to Lessee, Lessor agrees to extend to
          Lessee, at Lessee's cost, the benefit of each such warranty and right
          to the extent possible.

     6.2  PARTS

          Except to the extent Lessor otherwise agrees in a particular case,
          Lessee will procure that all engines, components, furnishings or
          equipment provided by the manufacturer, vendor, subcontractor or
          supplier in replacement of a defective Engine or Part pursuant to the
          terms of any warranty will be installed promptly by Lessee and that
          title thereto vests in Lessor free of Liens. On installation those
          items will be deemed to be an Engine or Part, as applicable.

     6.3  REASSIGNMENT

          At the expiration or earlier termination of the Term as provided
          herein, Lessee shall reassign to Lessor, or its designee, without
          recourse or warranty, the benefit of any subsisting warranty and right
          assigned by Lessor to Lessee pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise.
          Lessee at its own cost and expense will do all such things and execute
          such documents as may reasonably be required for this purpose.

7.   LESSOR'S COVENANTS

     7.1  QUIET ENJOYMENT

          Lessor covenants that so long as an Event of Default shall not have
          occurred and be continuing, (i) Lessee shall quietly enjoy, in
          accordance with the terms hereof, the Aircraft and all rents,
          revenues, profits and income thereof, without interference from
          Lessor, or from any Person lawfully claiming by or through Lessor
          (including, without limitation, any Person providing financing or
          refinancing for the Aircraft), and (ii) neither Lessor nor any Person
          lawfully claiming by or through Lessor shall take or cause to be taken
          any action contrary to such right of quiet enjoyment. Lessor shall
          cause any Person providing financing or refinancing for the Aircraft
          to provide to Lessee a comparable covenant of quiet enjoyment.

     7.2  END PAYMENT

          7.2.1 Promptly following:

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

               (2)  payment to Lessor of the Agreed Value following an Event of
                    Loss after the delivery Date;


                                    PAGE 40

<PAGE>

               or, in each case, such later time as Lessor is satisfied Lessee
               has paid to Lessor all amounts which may then be due and payable
               under this Agreement, Lessor will:

                    (a)  pay to Lessee the amount of any Rent received in
                         respect of any period falling after the Redelivery Date
                         or payment of the Agreed Value, as the case may be;

                    (b)  return to Lessee any remaining Cash Deposit, subject to
                         any application and reduction by Lessor pursuant to
                         Clause 5.1; and

                    (c)  return the Letters of Credit to Lessee, subject to any
                         drawings pursuant to Clause 5.1.

          7.2.2 If, at the end of the Term, an Event of Default has occurred and
               is continuing, the rebate and payments and return of the Letters
               of Credit, contemplated above will only be made following (1) any
               cure by Lessee to Lessor's reasonable satisfaction of such Event
               of Default, and (2) any set-off by Lessor hereunder, but any such
               rebate and return of the Letters of Credit or payment shall only
               be to the extent of the applicable balance remaining following
               such set-off.

     7.3  MANUFACTURER CREDIT AND PRODUCT SUPPORT

          7.3.1 Lessor shall, on or prior to delivery of the Aircraft hereunder,
               assign or shall cause to be assigned or otherwise provided to
               Lessee a new operator credit memorandum in the amount of the New
               Operator Credit to be issued by Manufacturer under the Purchase
               Agreement at the time of delivery of the Aircraft under the
               Purchase Agreement, such credit memorandum to be used in
               accordance with the terms thereof for the purchase of spare parts
               or training from Manufacturer or for the cost of certification to
               comply with applicable requirements of the Panamanian aviation
               authorities.

          7.3.2 Lessor shall, on or prior to delivery of the Aircraft hereunder,
               assign or cause to be assigned to Lessee training, product
               support and onsite technical assistance applicable to the
               Aircraft and to the Engines to be furnished by Manufacturer
               pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and by the Engine manufacturer
               pursuant to its agreements with Lessor or Beneficiary, as the
               case may be, respectively.

          7.3.3 Lessee shall provide directly to Manufacturer or to Lessor, as
               the case may be, all indemnities and insurance coverage, and
               perform all related obligations, required by Manufacturer or the
               Engine manufacturer in connection with such training, product
               support and onsite technical assistance, and shall otherwise
               indemnify and hold harmless Lessor from and against all claims
               and liabilities of any kind related thereto.

     7.4  AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVE COST SHARING

          Where the cost of any single non-repetitive airworthiness directive to
          be accomplished pursuant to Clause 14.8 of Schedule 3 or which Lessee
          is otherwise required by the terms of this Agreement to accomplish
          exceeds US**Material Redacted**, Lessor shall pay to Lessee, as long
          as no Default has occurred and is continuing, an amount calculated in
          accordance with the following formula:

               C x (N - R) / N

               Where

               N = **Material Redacted**

               R = the number of complete months remaining in the Term after
                   completion of the modification

               C = the cost of the modification in excess of US**Material
                   Redacted**.

8.   LESSEE'S COVENANTS

     8.1  DURATION

          Subject to Clause 10.2, the undertakings of Lessee under this
          Agreement will:

          (1)  except as otherwise stated, be performed at the expense of
               Lessee; and

          (2)  remain in force until the earlier to occur of (a) Redelivery of
               the Aircraft to Lessor in accordance with this Agreement either
               at the end of the Term, or earlier as provided herein, and

          Lessee will maintain in full force during the Term insurances in
          respect of the Aircraft in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
          to Lessor and in conformity with and covering such risks as are set
          forth in Schedule 5 hereof (the "Insurances," which expression
          includes, where the context so admits, any relevant re-insurance(s))
          through such brokers, with such lead underwriters being subject to
          such exclusions as may be approved by Lessor, such approval not to be

               normally participate in aviation insurances in the leading
               international insurance markets and led by reputable
               underwriter(s) approved by Lessor (such approval not to be
               unreasonably withheld or delayed); or

          (2)  with a single insurer or group of insurers approved by Lessor who
               does not retain the risk but effects substantial reinsurance with
               reinsurers in the leading international insurance markets and
               through brokers each of recognized standing and acceptable to
               Lessor for a percentage acceptable to Lessor of all risks insured
               (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

     9.2  REQUIREMENTS

          Lessor's current requirements as to required Insurances are as
          specified in this Clause 9 and in Schedule 5. Also, Lessor may request
          the addition of additional insureds, as appropriate.

     9.3  CHANGE

          Lessor shall be entitled to revoke its approval of Lessee's broker or
          lead underwriter(s) provided that: (i) there shall have occurred after
          the date hereof, any event or series of events which in Lessor's
          reasonable opinion, after consultation with Lessee and such broker or
          underwriter(s), has adversely affected such broker's or underwriter's
          ability to perform its obligations with respect to the Insurances
          required to be maintained hereunder; (ii) a majority of Lessee's other
          lessors of aircraft consent to the resulting change in broker or lead
          underwriter(s); and (iii) similar insurance is then generally
          available through other brokers and underwriters in the major
          international insurance markets upon terms substantially similar to
          the then current policy or policies.

     9.4  INSURANCE COVENANTS

          Lessee will:

          (1)  ensure that all legal 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 Jurisdiction of Registration, the
               Jurisdiction of Incorporation, or any state to, from, or over
               which the Aircraft may be flown, insofar as they affect or
               concern the operation of the Aircraft, are complied with and in
               particular those requirements, compliance with which is necessary
               to ensure that:

               (a)  the Aircraft is not in material risk of detention or
                    forfeiture;

               (b)  the Insurances remain valid and in full force and effect;
                    and

               (c)  the interests of the Indemnitees in the Insurances and the
                    Aircraft, any Engine or any Part are not thereby prejudiced;


                                    PAGE 43

<PAGE>

          (2)  not use, cause or permit the Aircraft, any Engine or any Part to
               be used for any purpose or in any manner not covered by the
               Insurances or outside any geographical limit imposed by the
               Insurances;

          (3)  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 reasonably be expected to invalidate the
                    Insurances; or

               (b)  renders, or may reasonably be expected to render, void or
                    voidable the whole or any part of any of the Insurances; or

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

          (4)  [Intentionally omitted.]

          (5)  commence renewal procedures in due time prior to expiry of any of
               the Insurances and provide to Lessor:

               (a)  if requested by Lessor, a written status report of renewal
                    negotiations 10 days prior to each expiry date;

               (b)  facsimile or telexed confirmation of completion of renewal
                    together with summary of conditions prior to each expiry
                    date; and

               (c)  certificates of insurance (and where appropriate
                    certificates of reinsurance) and broker's (and any
                    reinsurance brokers') letter of undertaking in a form
                    reasonably acceptable to Lessor in accordance with the
                    provisions of this Clause 9, in English, detailing the
                    coverage and confirming the insurers' (and any reinsurers')
                    agreement to the specified insurance requirements of this
                    Agreement within 7 days of renewal;

          (6)  [Intentionally omitted.]

          (7)  [Intentionally omitted.]

          (8)  not make any modification or alteration to the Insurances
               material and adverse to the interests of any of the Indemnitees;

          (9)  be responsible for any deductible under the Insurances; and

          (10) provide any other insurance and reinsurance related information
               in respect of the Insurances as Lessor may reasonably require.

     9.5  FAILURE TO INSURE

          If Lessee fails to maintain the Insurances in compliance with this
          Agreement, each of the Indemnitees will be entitled but not bound
          (without prejudice to any other rights of Lessor under this
          Agreement):

          (1)  to pay the premiums due or to effect and maintain insurances
               satisfactory to it or otherwise remedy Lessee's failure in such
               manner (including, without limitation to effect and maintain an
               "owner's interest" policy) as it considers appropriate. Any sums
               so expended by it will become immediately due and payable by
               Lessee to Lessor (or an Indemnitee) together with interest
               thereon at the rate specified in Clause 5.10, from the date of
               expenditure by it up to the date of reimbursement by Lessee; or

          (2)  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 it until the failure is remedied to its
               satisfaction.

     9.6  CONTINUING INDEMNITY

          Lessor may require Lessee to effect and to maintain insurance after
          the Expiry Date with respect to its liability under the indemnities in
          Clause 10 for such period as Lessor may reasonably require (but in no
          event for a period longer than the earlier to occur of two years
          following the Expiry Date or the next D-check, or equivalent) and
          which provides for each Indemnitee to be named as additional insured.
          Lessee's obligation in this clause shall not be affected by Lessee's
          ceasing to be Lessee of the Aircraft and/or any of the Indemnitees
          ceasing to have any interest in respect of the Aircraft.

     9.7  APPLICATION OF INSURANCE PROCEEDS

          As between Lessor and Lessee:

          (1)  all insurance proceeds, other than proceeds of insurance
               described in Clause 9.8, received as the result of an Event of
               Loss occurring during the Term will be paid to Lessor;

          (2)  all insurance proceeds of any property, damage or loss to the
               Aircraft, any Engine or any Part occurring during the Term not
               constituting an Event of Loss and in excess of the Damage
               Notification Threshold shall be paid to Lessor and applied in
               payment (or to reimburse Lessee) for repairs or replacement
               property upon Lessor's being satisfied that the repairs or
               replacement have been effected in accordance with this Agreement.
               Insurance proceeds in amounts below the Damage Notification
               Threshold may be paid by the insurer directly to Lessee or
               repairers in respect of repairs or replacements only;


                                    PAGE 45

<PAGE>

          (3)  all insurance proceeds in respect of third party liability will
               be paid by the insurers to the relevant third party in
               satisfaction of the relevant liability or to Lessor or Lessee in
               reimbursement of any payment so made by them with the agreement
               of the insurers; and

          (4)  notwithstanding Clauses 9.7(1), (2) or (3), 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 as security for the performance of Lessee's obligations
               hereunder and may be applied toward payment of any amounts which
               may then be payable by Lessee under this Agreement or any Sister
               Lease in such order as Lessor reasonably sees fit. The amount so
               retained or the balance thereof after application of any portion
               thereof as provided in this Clause 9.7(4) shall be paid to Lessee
               at such time as such Default shall have ceased to exist.

     9.8  INSURANCE FOR LESSEE'S OWN ACCOUNTS

          Nothing herein shall be deemed to prevent Lessee, at its sole expense,
          from carrying insurance covering the Aircraft, the Airframe, the
          Engines or any engine or engines from time to time installed on the
          Airframe or any Part in addition to the Insurances required under this
          Clause 9, or in amounts greater than those required under this Clause
          9 (any such insurance "Additional Insurance"), provided that such
          Additional Insurance does not adversely affect the rights of Lessor,
          Beneficiary or any other Additional Insured to make any claim or
          obtain recovery or coverage in full under any of the Insurances
          required to be maintained pursuant to this Clause 9. The proceeds of
          any such Additional Insurance shall be paid directly to and shall be
          deemed the sole property of Lessee.

10.  INDEMNITY

     10.1 GENERAL

          Except as set forth in Clause 10.3, Lessee agrees to defend, indemnify
          and hold harmless the Indemnitees from and against any and all claims,
          proceedings, losses, liabilities, suits, judgment, costs (including
          attorneys' fees and related costs), expenses, penalties or fines (each
          a "Claim") (where any such Claim relates to an occurrence suffered,
          incurred, or arising out of an event the happening of which was during
          the Term or prior to redelivery of the Aircraft, but not before the
          Term) regardless of when the Claim is made whether or not it arises
          out of or is attributable to any act or omission, negligent or
          otherwise, of any Indemnitee:

          (1)  which may at any time be suffered or incurred directly or
               indirectly as a result of or connected with the possession,
               delivery, performance, management, registration, control,
               maintenance, condition, service, repair, overhaul, leasing, use,
               operation or return of the Aircraft, any Engine or Part (either
               in the air or on the ground) whether or not the Claim may be


                                    PAGE 46

<PAGE>

               attributable to any defect in the Aircraft, any Engine or any
               Part or to its design, testing or use or otherwise;

          (2)  which arises otherwise from or in connection with the leasing of
               the Aircraft to Lessee under this Agreement and any act or
               omission of Lessee;

          (3)  which arises out of any act or omission which invalidates or
               which renders voidable any of the Insurances; or

          (4)  which, except as to the Manufacturer, may at any time be suffered
               or incurred as a consequence of any design, production, 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 of any obligation of confidentiality owed to any person;

          but excluding any Claim to the extent that the Claim is covered
          pursuant to another indemnity provision of this Agreement or to the
          extent it arises solely as a result of Lessor Taxes or a Lessor Lien.

     10.2 DURATION

          The indemnities contained in this Agreement will continue in full
          force after the Expiry Date.

     10.3 EXCEPTIONS

          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Lessee shall not be
          required to indemnify any Indemnitee in respect of any Claim arising
          from or otherwise attributable to:

          (1)  acts or events which occur prior to execution of this Agreement
               or after Redelivery of the Aircraft to the Lessor in the manner
               and in the condition required hereunder, provided that nothing
               herein shall be deemed to release Lessee from any of its
               obligations hereunder that provide for performance after
               termination of the Term;

          (2)  the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee;

          (3)  Lessor Taxes;

          (4)  Lessor Liens;

          (5)  ordinary and usual operating or overhead expenses of such
               Indemnitee other than arising in connection with a Default or an
               Event of Default hereunder;

          (6)  the financing of the Aircraft or any voluntary or involuntary
               assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition
               (collectively a "Transfer") of all or any interest of such
               Indemnitee in or to the Aircraft, any Engine or Part or


                                    PAGE 47

<PAGE>

               this Lease by any Person other than the Lessee unless such
               Transfer arises in connection with the exercise by Lessor of any
               available remedies during the existence of an Event of Default);
               and

          (7)  as to the Manufacturer, any breach by Manufacturer or Engine
               Manufacturer of any of their respective warranties as set forth
               in the Purchase Agreement or any other agreement or instrument
               between Manufacturer, Engine Manufacturer or any vendor, supplier
               or subcontractor of Manufacturer or Engine Manufacturer, or as a
               consequence of any design or production defect.

          Lessee shall be subrogated to the rights and remedies which any
          Indemnitee may have against the Manufacturer, the Engine Manufacturer
          or any supplier, vendor, subcontractor or other manufacturer of any
          Part or any other Person claiming against such Indemnitee, provided
          Lessee shall have satisfied its indemnification obligations hereunder.

          If any Indemnitee obtains a recovery of all or any portion of any
          indemnity amount which Lessee has paid in full to such Indemnitee,
          provided that at such time as no Default has occurred and is then
          continuing, such Indemnitee shall pay to Lessee the net amount
          recovered by such Indemnitee within ten Business Days after receipt
          thereof.

11.  EVENTS OF LOSS

     11.1 PRE-DELIVERY

          If an Event of Loss occurs prior to delivery of the Aircraft to
          Lessee, this Agreement will immediately terminate and except as
          expressly stated in this Agreement neither party will have any further
          obligation or liability under this Agreement other than pursuant to
          Clause 17.9, except that Lessor will return to Lessee the Cash Deposit
          and the Deposit Letter of Credit.

     11.2 POST-DELIVERY

          If an Event of Loss occurs in respect of the Aircraft after delivery
          of the Aircraft to Lessee, Lessee will pay the Agreed Value to Lessor
          on or prior to the earlier of (1) 90 days after the Event of Loss and
          (2) the date of receipt of insurance proceeds in respect of that Event
          of Loss. Subject to the rights of any insurers and reinsurers or other
          third party, upon irrevocable payment in full to Lessor of that amount
          and all other amounts which may then be payable to Lessor under this
          Agreement, Lessor will without recourse or warranty (except as to
          Lessor's Liens) and without further act, be deemed to have transferred
          to Lessee all of Lessor's rights to any Engines and Parts not
          installed when the Event of Loss occurred, all on an as-is, where-is
          basis, and will at Lessee's reasonable expense (including Taxes, if
          any), execute and deliver such bills of sale and other documents and
          instruments as Lessee may reasonably request to evidence (on the
          public record or otherwise) the transfer and the vesting of


                                    PAGE 48

<PAGE>

          Lessor's rights in such Engines and Parts in Lessee, free and clear of
          all of Lessor Liens.

     11.3 ENGINES

          If an Event of Loss occurs with respect to any Engine not then
          installed on the Aircraft, or upon any Event of Loss with respect to
          an Engine installed on the Aircraft not involving an Event of Loss of
          the Aircraft occurring after delivery of the Aircraft to Lessee,
          Lessee shall give Lessor prompt written notice thereof and Lessee
          shall replace such Engine as soon as reasonably possible by duly
          conveying to Lessor title to another engine owned or to be acquired by
          Lessee, which engine shall be free and clear of all Liens other than
          Permitted Liens, and shall be of the same make or model or an improved
          or advanced version, in such operating condition and of such value and
          utility as the Engine which sustained the Event of Loss was (or would
          have been if it had been maintained in accordance with the terms
          hereof). Such replacement engine shall be deemed an "Engine" as
          defined herein. Lessee agrees to take such action as Lessor may
          reasonably request in order that any such replacement Engine shall be
          duly and properly titled in Lessor and leased hereunder to the same
          extent as the Engine replaced thereby. Lessee's obligation to pay the
          Rent hereunder shall continue in full force and effect, but Lessee
          shall be entitled to be reimbursed by Lessor the amount of insurance
          or condemnation proceeds, if any, received by Lessor with respect to
          such replaced Engine, subject to insurers' rights.

     11.4 REQUISITION

          During any requisition for use or hire of the Aircraft, any Engine or
          Part which does not constitute or has not matured into an Event of
          Loss and provided always that it does not arise out of any act or
          omission of Lessor, Beneficiary or any Person claiming by or through
          Lessor or Beneficiary:

          (1)  the Rent and other charges 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); and

          (2)  so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, Lessee will
               be entitled to any hire paid by the requisitioning authority in
               respect of the Term, but if a Default has occurred and is
               continuing, Lessor will be entitled to such hire to be held as
               security for Lessee's obligations hereunder and paid over to
               Lessee at such time as such Default shall not be continuing, if
               not applied in full or partial satisfaction of such obligations.
               Lessee will, as soon as practicable after the end of any such
               requisition, cause the Aircraft to be put into the condition
               required by this Agreement. Lessor will be entitled to all
               compensation payable by the requisitioning authority in respect
               of any change in the structure, state or condition of the
               Aircraft arising during the period of requisition, and Lessor
               will apply such compensation in


                                    PAGE 49

<PAGE>

               reimbursing Lessee for the cost of complying with its obligations
               under this Agreement in respect of any such change, but so that,
               if any Default has occurred and is continuing, Lessor may apply
               the compensation or hire in or towards settlement of any amounts
               owing by Lessee under this Agreement.

12.  REDELIVERY OF AIRCRAFT

     12.1 NOTIFICATION

          Lessee will notify and provide Lessor with a schedule for the
          Redelivery of the Aircraft not later than 30 days prior to the
          commencement of the Redelivery Check, and Schedule 4 shall apply in
          relation to the Redelivery Check.

     12.2 REDELIVERY

          On the Expiry Date or termination of the leasing of the Aircraft under
          this Agreement, unless an Event of Loss has occurred, Lessee will, at
          its expense, redeliver the Aircraft including all Documents and
          Records to Lessor at the Redelivery Location in a condition complying
          with this Agreement and in particular Schedule 4, free and clear of
          all Liens and Permitted Liens (other than Lessor Liens).

     12.3 REDELIVERY ACKNOWLEDGMENT

          Provided Lessee has complied with its obligations under this
          Agreement, upon redelivery of the Aircraft by Lessee to Lessor at the
          Redelivery Location, Lessor will deliver to Lessee an acknowledgment
          confirming that Lessee has redelivered the Aircraft to Lessor in
          accordance with this Agreement.

     12.4 SHORT TERM STORAGE

          At the election of Lessor, the Lessee shall store the Aircraft either
          at Lessee's facility or, at Lessee's option, at another facility that
          is satisfactory to Lessor for a period of up to 30 days following
          Redelivery of the Aircraft by Lessee to Lessor, so long as Lessor has
          given Lessee 30 days' written notice of such storage intent prior to
          the Redelivery Date. If Lessor gives Lessee written notice of its
          intent to store the Aircraft less than 30 days prior to the Redelivery
          Date, Lessee shall only be obligated to provide such storage if space
          is available in the Lessee's storage facilities. Lessee will maintain
          the Aircraft per the Manufacturer's recommended storage program, and
          Lessor shall pay all actual and reasonable expenses of such storage
          and maintenance.

     12.5 EXPENSES

          All expenses associated with the Redelivery Check, in accordance with
          this Clause 12 and Schedule 4, and any other Redelivery requirement,
          will be at the expense of the Lessee, unless specifically noted in
          this Agreement, or otherwise mutually agreed in writing.

     12.6 WARRANTY TRANSFER

          Any warranties remaining from work accomplished by outside vendors or
          Parts installed on the Aircraft will be transferred to Lessor. For any
          component repair or overhaul performed by Lessee's internal shops,
          warranties will be transferred to Lessor on the understanding that
          Lessee's warranty is substantially the same as the industry standard
          of that component.

     12.7 NON-COMPLIANCE

          To the extent that at the time of Final Inspection and demonstration
          flight, the Aircraft does not comply with the Redelivery condition of
          this Agreement, Lessee will at Lessor's option:

          (1)  immediately rectify the non-compliance at Lessee's expense and to
               the extent the non-compliance extends beyond the Expiry Date, the
               Term will automatically be extended and this Agreement will
               remain in force until the non-compliance has been rectified to
               the mutual satisfaction of both parties, or

          (2)  redeliver the Aircraft to Lessor and indemnify Lessor, and
               provide to Lessor's satisfaction security for such indemnity,
               against the cost of putting the Aircraft into the condition
               required by this Agreement, and pay to Lessor such actual and
               reasonable costs to troubleshoot and repair the non-compliant
               item as incurred by Lessor within 5 business days after the
               receipt of Lessor's invoice therefor, provided that all such
               repairs shall be completed within 90 days of Redelivery.

     12.8 EXPORT

          At Redelivery, Lessee will provide to Lessor all documents necessary
          to export (if applicable) the Aircraft from the Redelivery Location if
          outside the USA (including without limitation, a valid and subsisting
          export license for the Aircraft). Lessee will also provide to Lessor
          all necessary assistance to enable the Lessor to obtain customs
          clearance and any other permissions and documentation relevant to
          exportation from the Redelivery Location if outside the USA and pay
          any Taxes incurred in respect of the exportation of the Aircraft from
          the Habitual Base.

     12.9 LATE REDELIVERY

          If the Aircraft is not duly redelivered on the Expiry Date due to
          delays not caused by Lessor and unforeseen or foreseen in meeting
          return conditions, Lessee will be liable to Lessor (1) during the one
          month period following the Expiry Date, for Rent on the basis of the
          applicable Rent in the preceding Rental Period, and (2) thereafter for
          150% such Rent. If in the reasonable judgment of Lessor the delay
          could have been avoided by the prudent planning of Lessee, Lessee will
          be liable to Lessor for Rent in the amount of 150% of the otherwise
          applicable Rent commencing on the fifteenth (15th) day following the
          scheduled Expiry Date. In each case, Rent will be prorated


                                    PAGE 51

<PAGE>

          on a daily basis in an amount equal to 1/30th of the monthly Rent and
          payable on a weekly basis, in advance, for each day following the
          Expiry Date, until the Aircraft is duly redelivered. Following
          redelivery of the Aircraft, Rent will be adjusted for the actual
          number of days between the Expiry Date and the actual Redelivery Date.
          Any excess amounts paid will be returned to Lessee upon satisfaction
          of all open items associated with the Redelivery. During this extended
          period, all of the Lessee's other responsibilities and obligations
          will remain in full force and effect and Lessee will use its best
          commercially reasonable efforts to redeliver the Aircraft as soon as
          possible.

               for a period in excess of 60 days.

          deal with the Aircraft as if this Agreement had never been made and
          Lessee will at the request of Lessor take all steps necessary to
          effect (if applicable) export of the Aircraft from the country where
          the Aircraft is then situated and any other steps necessary to enable
          the Aircraft to be immediately redelivered to Lessor in accordance
          with this Agreement. Lessee hereby irrevocably and by way of security
          for its obligations under this Agreement appoints Lessor as its
          attorney to execute and deliver any documentation and to do any act or
          thing required in connection with the foregoing, including, but not
          limited to, filing any documents and taking any actions necessary for
          the purpose of requesting cancellation of the registration of the
          Aircraft with the Air Authority.

     13.4 DEFAULT PAYMENTS

          If:

          (1)  Default occurs and is continuing; or

          (2)  the Aircraft is not delivered on the proposed Delivery Date by
               reason of failure of Lessee to satisfy any conditions to that
               delivery except in the event of an Excusable Delay;

          Lessee will indemnify Lessor on demand against any loss (including
          loss of profit), damage, expense, cost or inability which Lessor may
          sustain or incur directly or indirectly as a result thereof including
          but not limited to:

               (a)  any loss of profit suffered by Lessor because of Lessor's
                    inability to place the Aircraft on lease with another lessee
                    on terms as favorable to Lessor as this Agreement or because
                    the following are not as profitable to Lessor as such lease
                    would have been but for such Default or non-delivery
                    referred to in (1) and (2) above, namely (i) whatever use if
                    any to which Lessor is able to put the Aircraft as an
                    alternative to the Lease under this Agreement or (ii) any
                    consequent sale or disposal by Lessor of the Aircraft and
                    the funds arising upon such sale or disposal; and

               (b)  any loss, cost, expense, or liability sustained or incurred
                    by Lessor owing to Lessee's failure to redeliver the
                    Aircraft on the date, at the place and in the condition
                    required by this Agreement.

     13.5 SURVIVAL

          All the representations, warranties, indemnities and unperformed
          covenants and Lessor's rights contained in this Agreement shall
          survive and continue in full force after the Expiry Date,
          notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement or the lease of the
          Aircraft for any reason whatsoever.

14.  ASSIGNMENT, NOVATION

     14.1 LIEN

          Lessee will not assign, or create or permit to exist any Lien, other
          than Permitted Liens, over, any of its rights under this Agreement,
          the other Lessee Documents or the Insurances.

     14.2 LEASE ASSIGNMENT/NOVATION

          Subject at all times and in all cases to Lessee's rights under this
          Agreement and such other restrictions as are set forth herein, Lessor,
          at its sole cost and expense, may sell, assign, pledge, transfer or
          convey (in each case a "Transfer") to any Person (each a
          "Transferee"), any or all of Lessor's rights, title and interest in,
          to and under this Agreement and in respect of the Aircraft; provided
          however, that no such Transfer shall, directly or indirectly, (i)
          materially increase Lessee's obligations, duties or liabilities under
          this Agreement or in respect of the Aircraft in any manner whatsoever,
          (ii) diminish or adversely affect Lessee's rights under this Agreement
          or in respect of the Aircraft; (iii) be made to any airline, or (iv)
          otherwise cause Lessee to incur any obligations, cost or expense in
          excess of those for which it would have been responsible in the
          absence of such Transfer; provided further however, that (a) any
          Transferee, whether of all or any part of Lessor's interest in and to
          this Agreement or the Aircraft, shall have executed and delivered to
          Lessee written confirmation in form reasonably satisfactory to Lessee
          that such Transferee agrees to be bound by all of the terms and
          conditions of this Agreement and (b) any Transferee, whether of all or
          any part of Lessor's interest in and to this Agreement or the
          Aircraft, shall have executed and delivered to Lessee, a letter of
          quiet enjoyment, in form and substance substantially equivalent to
          Clause 7.1 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of any
          Transfer of this Agreement or the Aircraft as security for any
          obligations of Lessor (whether in respect of any financing
          arrangements made by Lessor in respect of the Aircraft or otherwise),
          Lessor shall remain fully liable to Lessee for the prompt and due
          payment and performance of all of its duties, liabilities and
          obligations under this Agreement to the full extent as if no such
          Transfer had been made. Lessee acknowledges and agrees that should
          Lessor sell, assign transfer or convey to a Transferee, other than by
          way of security, all of Lessor's interest under this Agreement and in
          the Aircraft, Lessor shall thereupon be relieved of all of its
          obligations hereunder and Lessor's Transferee shall succeed to all of
          Lessor's rights, interests and obligations under this Agreement,
          subject however to Lessor's compliance with the terms and provisions
          of this Clause.


                                    PAGE 58

<PAGE>

          Subject to compliance by Lessor with this Clause 14.2, lessee shall
          execute and deliver, at Lessor's sole cost and expense, any and all
          instruments or documents reasonably requested by Lessor and shall
          otherwise reasonably cooperate with Lessor in connection with and to
          effectuate any such Transfer.

15.  ILLEGALITY

     If, notwithstanding the provisions of Clause 17.7, it becomes unlawful in
     any jurisdiction for Lessor or Lessee to give effect to their respective
     obligations as contemplated by this Agreement, the affected party shall
     notify the other in writing. Lessor and Lessee will consult in good faith
     as to any steps which may be taken to restructure the transaction to avoid
     that unlawfulness but neither party will be under no obligation to take any
     such steps. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as Lessor in its discretion
     considers appropriate or advisable while any such illegality exists and
     prior to any such cure thereof, Lessor may by notice in writing to Lessee
     terminate the leasing of the Aircraft under this Agreement. Upon any such
     termination, Lessee will immediately redeliver the Aircraft to Lessor as
     follows: (i) if the illegality causing such termination relates to the
     rights or powers of Lessee and is attributable to the laws or regulations
     of the Republic of Panama or any other jurisdiction with jurisdiction over
     the rights or powers of Lessee, Lessee shall redeliver the Aircraft to
     Lessor in accordance with the requirements of Clause 12 and Schedule 4;
     (ii) if the illegality causing such termination relates to the rights or
     powers of Lessor or Beneficiary and is attributable to the laws of the USA
     or any other jurisdiction with jurisdiction over the rights or powers of
     Lessor or Beneficiary, Lessee shall return the Aircraft to Lessor in
     accordance with the requirements of Clauses 12.2, 12.4 12.5 12.6 and 12.8
     of this Agreement, together with Clauses 1.0, 2.4, 2.8, 2.14, 2.15, 3.1,
     4.1, 4.3 and 5.1 through 5.5 of Schedule 4.

16.  DISCLAIMERS AND WAIVERS

     16.1 EXCLUSION AND WAIVER

     16.2 CERTIFICATE OF ACCEPTANCE

          DELIVERY BY LESSEE TO LESSOR OF THE CERTIFICATE OF ACCEPTANCE WILL BE
          CONCLUSIVE PROOF AS BETWEEN LESSOR AND


                                    PAGE 60

<PAGE>

          LESSEE THAT LESSEE HAS EXAMINED AND INVESTIGATED THE AIRCRAFT, THAT
          THE AIRCRAFT AND THE DOCUMENTS AND RECORDS ARE SATISFACTORY TO LESSEE
          AND THAT LESSEE HAS IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY ACCEPTED THE
          AIRCRAFT FOR LEASE HEREUNDER WITHOUT ANY RESERVATIONS WHATSOEVER
          EXCEPT AS MAY BE STATED THEREIN.

17.  MISCELLANEOUS

     17.1 WAIVERS, REMEDIES, CUMULATIVE

          The rights of Lessor under this Agreement:

          (1)  may be exercised as often as necessary;

          (2)  are cumulative and not exclusive of its rights under any law; and

          (3)  may be waived only in writing and specifically.

          Delay in the exercise or non-exercise of any such right will not
          constitute a waiver of that right.

     17.2 DELEGATION/AGENCY AGREEMENT

          Lessor may delegate to any person or persons all or any of the trusts,
          powers or discretions vested in it under 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
          determines in its absolute discretion, provided that Lessor shall
          remain responsible for the performance of any such trusts, powers and
          discretions so delegated.

          Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, certain obligations remain to be
          performed by Lessor in connection with the manufacture, fabrication
          and completion of the Aircraft by Manufacturer, which obligations,
          including the furnishing of certain equipment for the Aircraft, will
          be performed by Lessee. Lessee will act as Lessor's agent with respect
          to such matters as set forth in, and pursuant to, the terms of an
          agency agreement to be entered into by Lessor and Lessee in form and
          substance reasonably satisfactory to Lessor and Lessee. Lessee will
          perform its obligations as set forth in such agency agreement and
          provide the Aircraft equipment which must be provided by Lessee within
          the time periods required by Manufacturer, save for excusable delay.

     17.3 CERTIFICATES

          Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, any certificate or
          determination by Lessor as to any rate of interest or as to any other
          amount payable under this Agreement will, in the absence of manifest
          error, be conclusive and binding on Lessee provided that the same
          shall be accompanied by a written explanation, or


                                    PAGE 61

<PAGE>

          reasonable detail, as to the calculation or determination of any
          amount stated to be payable therein.

     17.4 APPROPRIATION

          If any sum paid or recovered 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 reasonably
          determine.

     17.5 CURRENCY INDEMNITY

          17.5.1 If Lessor receives an amount in respect of Lessee's liability
               under this Agreement or if such liability is converted into a
               claim, proof, judgment or order in a currency other than the
               currency in which the amount is expressed to be payable under
               this Agreement (the "contractual currency"), then:

               (1)  Lessee will indemnify Lessor as an independent obligation
                    against any loss arising out of or as a result of such
                    conversion;

               (2)  If the amount received by Lessor, when converted into the
                    contractual currency (at the market rate at which Lessor is
                    able on the relevant date to purchase the contractual
                    currency with such other currency) is less than the amount
                    owed in the contractual currency, Lessee will, immediately
                    on demand, pay to Lessor an amount in the contractual
                    currency equal to the deficit; and

               (3)  Lessee will pay to Lessor on demand any exchange costs and
                    Taxes payable in connection with the conversion.

          17.5.2 Lessee waives any right it may have in any jurisdiction to pay
               any amount under this Agreement in a currency other than the
               contractual currency.

     17.6 SET-OFF

          Lessor may set off any matured obligation owed by Lessee under this
          Agreement, any Sister Lease or any other agreement between Lessor (or
          any affiliate or subsidiary of Lessor) and Lessee (each an "Other
          Agreement") in respect of which an Event of Default (or similar event)
          has occurred and is continuing (to the extent beneficially owned by
          Lessor) against any obligation (whether or not matured) owed by Lessor
          to Lessee, regardless of the place of payment or currency. If the
          obligations are in different currencies, Lessor may convert either
          obligation at the market rate of exchange available for the purpose of
          the set-off. If an obligation is unascertained or unliquidated, Lessor
          may in good faith estimate that obligation and set off in respect of
          the estimate, subject to the relevant party accounting to the other
          when the obligation is ascertained or liquidated. Lessor will not be
          obliged to pay amounts to Lessee under this Agreement or any Other
          Agreements in respect of


                                    PAGE 62

<PAGE>

          which an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing so long as
          any sums which are then due to Lessor by Lessee under this Agreement
          remain unpaid and any such amounts which would otherwise be due will
          fall due only if and when Lessee has paid all such sums except to the
          extent Lessor otherwise agrees or sets off such amounts against such
          payment pursuant to the foregoing.

     17.7 SEVERABILITY

          If any provision hereof shall be held invalid, illegal or
          unenforceable in any respect in any jurisdiction, then to the extent
          permitted by law, (a) all other provisions hereof shall remain in full
          force and effect in such jurisdiction and (b) such invalidity,
          illegality or unenforceability shall not affect the validity, legality
          or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. If,
          however, any law pursuant to which such provisions are held invalid,
          illegal or unenforceable may be waived, such law is hereby waived by
          the parties hereto to the full extent permitted, to the end that this
          Agreement shall be deemed to be a valid and binding agreement in all
          respects, enforceable in accordance with its terms.

     17.8 REMEDY

          If Lessee fails to comply with any provision of this Agreement, Lessor
          may, without being in any way obliged to do so or responsible for so
          doing and without prejudice to the ability of Lessor to treat the
          non-compliance as a Default or an Event of Default, effect compliance
          on behalf of Lessee, whereupon Lessee shall become liable to pay
          immediately any sums expended by Lessor, together with all costs and
          expenses (including legal costs) in connection therewith.

     17.9 EXPENSES

          17.9.1 Whether or not the Aircraft is delivered to Lessee pursuant to
               this Agreement unless any failure to effect delivery results from
               an act or omission to act by Lessor or Beneficiary not
               anticipated or otherwise permitted under this Agreement, Lessee
               will pay to Lessor on demand all reasonable expenses (including
               investigation and appraisal expenses, attorneys' fees and other
               costs) payable or incurred by Lessor in connection with the
               enforcement of or preservation of any of Lessor's rights under
               this Agreement or any related agreement, or in respect of the
               repossession of the Aircraft pursuant to Clause 13.2. 17.9.2 Each
               party shall bear all other expenses (including legal,
               professional, and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred or payable by
               such party in connection with the negotiation, preparation, and
               execution of this Agreement and/or the other documents
               contemplated hereby.

          17.9.3 All expenses payable pursuant to Clause 17.9.1 will be paid in
               the currency in which they are incurred by Lessor.

     17.12 LAW AND JURISDICTION

          17.12.1 This Agreement shall in all respects be governed by, and
               construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of
               New York, inclusive of all matters of construction, validity and
               performance.

          17.12.2 Lessee and Lessor hereby irrevocably submit to the
               jurisdiction of any New York state or federal court sitting in
               New York City in any action or proceeding arising out of or
               relating to this Lease, and hereby irrevocably agree that all
               claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and
               determined in such New York state court or, to the extent
               permitted by law, in such federal court. Lessee and Lessor hereby
               irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent they may effectively do
               so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of
               such action or proceeding. Lessor hereby irrevocably appoints CT
               Corporation System, with an office on the date hereof at 1633
               Broadway, New York, New York 10019, and Lessee hereby irrevocably
               appoints Greenberg, Traurig, Hoffman, Lipoff, Rosen & Quentel,
               200 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10019 (the "Process Agents"),
               as their respective Process Agents to receive on their behalf
               proper service of copies of the summons and complaint and any
               other process that may be served in any such action or
               proceeding. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a
               copy of such process to Lessee or Lessor, as the case may be, in
               care of their respective Process Agents at such Process Agent's
               above address, and Lessee and Lessor hereby irrevocably authorize
               and direct their respective Process Agents to accept such service
               on their behalf. Lessee and Lessor agree that a final
               non-appealable judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be
               conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on
               the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in
               this Clause 17.12.2 shall affect the right of any Person to serve
               legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect the
               right of any other party to bring any action or proceeding
               against Lessee or Lessor, or their respective properties in the
               courts of other jurisdictions. LESSEE AND LESSOR HEREBY WAIVE
               TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING TO WHICH THEY ARE
               PARTIES INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTY, ANY MATTER ARISING OUT
               OF OR RELATING TO THIS LEASE.

          17.12.3 Lessee agrees that any final non-appealable judgment or order
               of a Federal or State court located in the State of New York in
               connection with this Agreement and the other Lessee Documents is
               conclusive and binding on it and may be enforced against it in
               the courts of any other jurisdiction.

          17.12.4 Lessee irrevocably and unconditionally:

               (1)  agrees that if Lessor brings legal proceedings against it or
                    its assets in relation to this Agreement and the other
                    Lessee Documents, no immunity from such legal proceedings
                    (which will be deemed to

                    include without limitation, suit, attachment prior to
                    judgment, other attachment, the obtaining of judgment,
                    execution or other enforcement) will be claimed by or on
                    behalf of itself or with respect to its assets;

               (2)  waives any such right of immunity which it or its assets now
                    has or may in the future acquire; and

               (3)  consents generally in respect of any such proceeding to the
                    giving of any relief or the issue of any process in
                    connection with such proceedings including without
                    limitation, the making, enforcement or execution against any
                    property whatsoever (irrespective of its use or intended
                    use) of any order or judgment which may be made or given in
                    such proceedings.

          17.13 SOLE AND ENTIRE AGREEMENT

               entire agreement between Lessor and Lessee in relation to the

          17.15 COUNTERPARTS

               This Agreement may be executed in counterparts each of which will
               constitute one and the same document.

               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 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.

          17.17 MODIFICATION

               any related letter agreements shall be deemed to be made unless

          17.18 OWNER TRUSTEE

               (1)  Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, Lessee
                    acknowledges (i) that this Agreement is executed by First
                    Security Bank, National Association, not in its individual
                    capacity, but solely as owner trustee, except as otherwise
                    expressly provided herein, under the Trust Agreement with
                    Beneficiary as grantor, in the exercise of the power and
                    authority conferred and vested in it as such owner trustee,
                    (ii) this Agreement is intended to bind only the Trust
                    Estate (as defined in the Trust Agreement) except to the
                    extent of the representations and warranties made herein by
                    First Security Bank, National Association in its individual
                    capacity, and (iii) that nothing herein contained shall be
                    construed as creating any liability on First Security Bank,
                    National Association, individually or personally, to perform
                    any agreement herein, all such liability, if any, being
                    expressly waived by Lessee and by each and every person now
                    or hereafter claiming by, through or under Lessee, except
                    with respect to the negligence or willful misconduct of
                    First Security Bank, National Association.

               (2)  If First Security Bank, National Association shall cease to
                    be a "citizen of the United States" within the meaning of 49
                    U.S.C. Section 40102 and the rules and regulations of the
                    FAA thereunder, First Security Bank, National Association,
                    in its individual capacity, agrees to give Lessee and
                    Beneficiary prompt notice thereof, upon an officer of First
                    Security Bank, National Association becoming aware thereof,
                    and agrees to cooperate with the efforts of Beneficiary
                    promptly to replace it as owner trustee of the trust owning
                    the Aircraft and as Lessor hereunder with a person who is
                    such a "citizen of the United States."

          regulations, and restrictions issued by the FAA for operation in
          accordance with FAR (including, but not limited to, Part 121 and any
          other rules and regulations of the FAA as may be applicable to
          passenger category aircraft of the same manufacture and model);

     (11) any Part installed on the Aircraft complies with FAA fire resistance
          regulations and U.S. TSO requirement, as applicable; and

     (12) no change occurs in the Habitual Base of the Aircraft without the
          prior written consent of Lessor, and Lessee shall pay to Lessor on
          demand any reasonable legal or other costs of Lessor relating to the
          consideration of such change whether or not Lessor consents thereto.
          Any consent of Lessor may be subject to such conditions as Lessor may
          require to protect its rights and interests in the Aircraft.

8.   PROTECTION: Lessee will ensure that:

     (1)  the registration of the Aircraft is maintained with the Air Authority

          below, at Lessor's sole cost and expense, and otherwise at Lessee's
          sole cost and expense, all acts and things are done (including,
          without limitation, making any filing or registration with the Air
          Authority or any other Government Entity) and executing and delivering
          all documents (including, without limitation, any amendment of this
          Agreement) as may reasonably be required by Lessor:

          (a)  following any change or proposed change in the ownership or
               financing of the Aircraft; or

          (b)  following any modification of the Aircraft, any Engine or any
               Part or the permanent replacement of any Engine or Part in
               accordance with this Agreement, so as to ensure that the rights
               of Lessor under this Agreement and the other Lessee Documents in
               respect thereof, apply with the same effect as before; or

          (c)  to establish, maintain, preserve, perfect and protect the rights
               of Lessor under this Agreement, in the Aircraft and the other
               Lessee Documents; and


                                     Page 6

<PAGE>

     (3)  Lessee obtains all documents, data, and records relating to
          maintenance, inspection or repair performed by Lessee's contractors
          employed for such purpose.

     with possession of the Aircraft, the Engines or any Part, except that:

     (1)  Lessee may part with possession with respect to the Aircraft, the
          Engines or any Part to the relevant manufacturer for testing or
          similar purposes or to the Agreed Maintenance Performer for service,
          repair, maintenance or overhaul work, or alterations, modifications or
          additions to the extent required or permitted by this Agreement;

     (2)  wet leasing and chartering, being cases where Lessee retains full
          operational control and its own aircrew, are permitted; and

     (3)  Lessee may sublease the Aircraft for a period not to extend beyond the
          end of the Term to Continental Airlines, Inc. pursuant to a sublease
          agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Lessor.

9.2  Where Lessee wishes to dry sub-lease the Aircraft, which shall be subject
     to the consent of the Lessor in its absolute discretion, Lessee shall give
     notice to Lessor of its request and pay to Lessor a fee of $10,000 for
     Lessor to assess the proposed arrangements, such notice only to be
     effective upon confirmation by Lessor of its receipt of that fee, and in
     any event Lessee shall pay on demand any reasonable legal or other costs of
     Lessor relating to the evaluation of any wet-lease, dry sub-lease or
     charter whether or not Lessor consents thereto. Any consent of Lessor may
     be subject to such conditions as Lessor may require to protect its rights
     and interests in the Aircraft.

10.  INSPECTION:

10.1 Lessor and any person designated by Lessor may, upon reasonable notice and

     may, subject to any applicable Air Authority regulation, travel on the
     flight deck as an observer on any non-revenue test flights as allowed by
     the applicable air authority, and Lessee shall ensure that all reasonable
     arrangements are made for Lessor and any designated person. Lessor reserves
     the right to perform an inspection at least once each year and preferably
     during the accomplishment of a C-Check, such inspection shall be a ground
     inspection and shall not require the opening of any panels additional to
     those already opened in the course of any ongoing maintenance.

10.2 In the case of inspection of Documents and Records, Lessee shall use
     commercially reasonable efforts to prepare them for inspection by Lessor
     within 2 weeks after notice from Lessor.

10.3 Lessor will:

     (1)  have no duty to make, or liability arising from any such visit,
          inspection or survey; and

     (2)  for so long as a Default has not occurred and is continuing, not
          exercise such right other than on reasonable notice so as not to
          disrupt unreasonably the commercial operations of Lessee.

11.  TITLE: Lessee will ensure that:

     (1)  it shall not do or permit to be done, or omit to be done or permit to

          expected to jeopardize the rights of Lessor as owner of the Aircraft;

     (2)  on all occasions when the ownership of the Aircraft, any Engine or any
          Part is relevant, it is made clear to third parties that title is held
          by Lessor;

          shall not pledge, or allow to be pledged, Lessor's credit;

     (4)  there is always affixed, and not removed or in any way obscured, a
          fireproof plate (having dimensions of not less than 10 cm x 7 cm) in a

          stating:

               "This Aircraft/Engine which is owned by First Security Bank,
               National Association, not in its individual capacity but solely
               as Owner Trustee (Lessor), is leased to Compania Panamena de
               Aviacion, S.A. (COPA) and may not be operated by any other person
               without the prior written consent of Lessor";

     (5)  there is not created or permitted to exist any Lien upon the Aircraft,
          any Engine or any Part other than Permitted Liens;

     (6)  it shall not do or permit to be done anything which may reasonably be
          expected to expose the Aircraft, any Engine or any Part to penalty,
          forfeiture, impounding, detention, appropriation, damage or
          destruction and without prejudice to the foregoing, if any such
          penalty, forfeiture, impounding, detention or appropriation, damage or
          destruction occurs, give Lessor notice and use commercially reasonable
          efforts to procure the immediate release of the Aircraft, any Engine
          or the Part, as the case may be;

     (7)  the Aircraft, the Engine or any Part is not abandoned;


                                     Page 8

<PAGE>

     (8)  there is paid and discharged when due and payable, or adequate
          provision is made by way of security, or otherwise, for all debts,
          damages, claims and liabilities which have given or might give rise to
          a Lien (other than Permitted Liens) over or affecting the Aircraft,
          any Engine or any Part;

     (9)  it shall not attempt, or hold itself out or permit any other Person to
          hold itself out as having any power, to sell, lease or otherwise
          dispose of the Aircraft, any Engine or any Part; and

     (10) all charges relating to navigation and charges of airports, fuel
          suppliers, maintenance and repair shops and other suppliers of
          services are paid when due.

12.  TITLE ON EQUIPMENT CHANGES:

     vest in Lessor subject to this Agreement free and clear of all Liens other
     than Permitted Liens. Lessee will at its own expense take all such steps
     and execute, and procure the execution of, all such instruments as Lessor
     may require and which are necessary to ensure that title so passes to
     Lessor according to all applicable laws. At any time when requested by
     Lessor, Lessee will provide evidence to Lessor's satisfaction (including
     the provision, if required, to Lessor of one or more legal opinions) that
     title has so passed to Lessor.

12.2 Any Landing Gear, APU or Part at any time removed from the Aircraft will
     remain the property of Lessor until a replacement has been made in
     accordance with this Agreement and until title in that replacement has
     passed, according to applicable laws, to Lessor subject to this Agreement
     free of all Liens, whereupon title to the Landing Gear, APU or Part will,
     provided no Default has occurred and is continuing, pass to Lessee.

     Airframe unless the Engine or Engines are:

     (1)  deemed to be the subject of an Event of Loss and title to a
          replacement Engine passes to the Lessor pursuant to Clause 11.3; or

     (2)  removed from the Aircraft in accordance with Clause 15 of this
          Schedule 3 and it is impractical to reinstate them, and Lessee
          installs a substitute engine or engines in accordance with Clause 16
          of this Schedule 3, title to which was transferred to Lessor in
          accordance with Clause 16, provided that the obligations under Clause
          16(1)(a) shall apply absolutely and not subject to Lessee's using its
          reasonable efforts to ensure their application, and that title shall
          be transferred to Lessor in accordance with the terms of Clause 16.

     arrangement in respect of Engines without the prior written consent of the
     Lessor, it being understood that (i) as of the date hereof, Lessee and
     Continental Airlines, Inc. are contemplating an engine pooling or sharing
     agreement that Lessor agrees to duly consider, and (ii) Lessee shall not

     monitor compliance. The demonstration flight will be at Lessee's expense.
     Any squawks found in the flight will be corrected at Lessee's cost and
     expense. Lessee and Lessor will reasonably cooperate to combine this
     demonstration flight with the flight to the Redelivery Location.

5.1  The Documents and Records will be made available to Lessor or Lessor's
     representative not less than 10 Business Days prior to scheduled Redelivery

                             INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS

The Insurances required to be maintained are on the basis of AVN 67B and as
follows:

1.   HULL ALL RISKS of Loss or Damage whilst flying and on the ground with
     respect to the Aircraft on an "agreed value basis" for the Agreed Value and
     with a deductible not exceeding the Insurance Deductible Amount, or such
     other amount agreed by Lessor from time to time, and to include deductible
     insurances, if necessary, to achieve that limit.

2.   WAR AND ALLIED PERILS, being such risks excluded from the Hull All Risks
     Policy to the fullest extent available from the leading international
     insurance markets including confiscation and requisition by the
     Jurisdiction of Incorporation for the Agreed Value.

3.   ALL RISKS (INCLUDING WAR AND ALLIED RISK except when on the ground or in
     transit other than by air) property insurance on all Engines and Parts when
     not installed on the Aircraft or an "agreed value" basis for their full
     replacement value and including engine test and running risks.

4.   AIRCRAFT THIRD PARTY, PROPERTY DAMAGE, PASSENGER, BAGGAGE, CARGO AND MAIL
     AND AIRLINE GENERAL THIRD PARTY (INCLUDING PRODUCTS) LEGAL LIABILITY for a
     Combined Single Limit (Bodily Injury/Property Damage) of an amount not less
     than the Minimum Liability Coverage for the time being any one occurrence
     (but in respect of products and personal injury liability this limit may be
     an aggregate limit for any and all losses occurring during the currency of
     the policy). War and Allied Risks are also to be covered under the Policy
     to the fullest extent available from the leading international insurance
     markets.

5.   All required hull and spares insurance (as specified above), so far as it
     relates to the Aircraft will:

     (1)  name Lessor as sole loss payee up to the Agreed Value; (2) provide
          that any loss will be payable in Dollars, and:

          (a) in respect of any claim that becomes payable on the basis of an
          Event of Loss, settlement shall be made to or to the order of Lessor
          up to the Agreed Value;

          (b) in respect of any other claim, settlement (net of any policy
          deductible) shall be made with such party(ies) as may be necessary to
          repair the Aircraft unless otherwise agreed after consultation between
          the insurers, Lessee and, where the loss exceeds the Damage
          Notification Threshold, Lessor; and


                                     Page 1

<PAGE>

          (c) if separate Hull "all risk" and "war risks" insurances are
          arranged, include a 50/50 provision in accordance with market practice
          (AVS. 103 is the current market language).

6.   All required liability insurances (specified above) will:

     (1)  include Lessor, and its successors and assigns and their respective
          shareholders, subsidiaries, directors, officers, agents, employees and
          Indemnitees as additional insureds for their respective rights and
          interests, warranted, each as to itself only, no operational interest;

     (2)  operate in all respects as if a separate policy had been issued
          covering each party insured, but shall not include any claim under
          hull and spares insurances (as specified above); notwithstanding the
          foregoing, the total liability of insurers shall not exceed the limits
          of liability stated in the policy; and

     (3)  contain a provision confirming that the policy is primary without
          right of contribution and the liability of the insurers will not be
          affected by any other insurance of which Lessor or Lessee have the
          benefit so as to reduce the amount payable to the additional insureds
          under such policies.

7.   All Insurances will:

     (1)  be in accordance with normal industry practice of persons operating
          similar aircraft in similar circumstances;

     (2)  provide cover denominated in Dollars and any other currencies which
          Lessor may reasonably require in relation to liability insurance;

     (3)  operate on a world-wide basis subject to such limitations and
          exclusions as Lessor may reasonably agree;

     (4)  provide that, in relation to the interests of each of the additional
          assureds the Insurances will not be invalidated by any act or omission
          (including misrepresentation and non-disclosure) of any other person
          or party which results in a breach of any term, condition or warranty
          of the policy, provided that the additional insured party so protected
          has not caused, contributed to or knowingly condoned the said act or
          omission;

     (5)  provide that upon payment of any loss or claim to or on behalf of any
          additional assureds, insurers shall to the extent and in respect of
          such payment be thereupon subrogated to all legal and equitable rights
          of that additional assured indemnified hereby (but not against any
          additional assureds). Insurers shall not exercise such rights without
          the consent of those indemnified, such consent not to be unreasonably
          withheld. At the expense of insurers such additional assureds shall do
          all things reasonably necessary to assist the insurers to exercise
          said rights;


                                     Page 2

<PAGE>

     (6)  provide that the additional assureds will have no obligation or
          responsibility for the payment of any premiums due and that the
          insurers will not exercise any right of set-off or counter-claim in
          respect of any premium due against the respective interests of the
          additional assureds other than outstanding premiums relating to the
          Aircraft, any Engine or Part which is the subject of the relevant
          claim;

     (7)  provide that, except in respect of any provision for cancellation or
          automatic termination specified in the Policy or any endorsement
          thereof, cover provided by the Insurances may only be cancelled or
          materially altered in a manner adverse to the additional assureds by
          the giving of not less than 30 days (7 days or such less period as may
          be customarily available in respect of war risks and allied perils)
          notice in writing to the appointed broker, who shall undertake to
          notify Lessor promptly. Notice shall be deemed to commence from the
          date such notice is given by the insurers. Such notice will not,
          however, be given the normal expiry date of the Policy or any
          endorsement; and

     (8)  reinsurance will (a) be on the same terms as the original insurances
          and will include the provisions of this Schedule, (b) provide that
          notwithstanding any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, dissolution
          or similar proceedings of or affecting the reinsured that the
          reinsurers' liability will be to make such payments as would have
          fallen due under the relevant policy of reinsurance if the reinsured
          had (immediately before such bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation,
          dissolution or similar proceedings) discharged its obligations in full
          under the original insurance policies in respect of which the then
          relevant policy of reinsurance has been effected; and (c) contain a
          "cut-through" clause in the following form (or otherwise, satisfactory
          to Lessor): "The Reinsurers and the Reinsured hereby mutually agree
          that in the event of any claim arising under the reinsurances in
          respect of a total loss or other claim where as provided by the
          Aircraft Lease Agreement (MSN 29047) dated as of October 1, 1998 and
          made between Lessor and Lessee such claim is to be paid to the person
          named as sole loss payee under the primary insurances, the Reinsurers
          will in lieu of payment to the Reinsured, its successors in interest
          and assigns pay to the person named as sole loss payee under the
          primary insurances effected by the Reinsured, that portion of any loss
          due for which the Reinsurers would otherwise be liable to pay the
          original Reinsured (subject to proof of loss), it being understood and
          agreed that any such payment by the Reinsurers will (to the extent of
          such payment) fully discharge and release the Reinsurers from any and
          all further liability in connection therewith" subject to such
          provisions not contravening any law of the Jurisdiction of
          Incorporation.

                              FORM OF LEGAL OPINION

To: First Security Bank, National Association
    Tombo Aviation, Inc.

Date: ______________

Dear Sirs,

1.   You have asked us to render an opinion in connection with the transaction
     governed, inter alia, by the under mentioned documents. Words and
     expressions used herein will bear the same meanings as defined in an
     Aircraft Lease Agreement (MSN 29047) (the "Lease") dated as of October 1,
     1998 between First Security Bank, National Association, not in its
     individual capacity, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, but
     solely as Owner Trustee, and Compania Panamena de Aviacion, S.A.:

     (1)  the Lease;

     (2)  the constitutional documents comprising [_________________] of Lessee;
          and

     (3)  all other documents, approvals and consents of whatever nature and
          wherever kept which it was, in our judgment and to our knowledge,
          necessary or appropriate to examine to enable us to give the opinion
          expressed below.

2.   Having considered the documents listed in paragraph 1 above, and having
     regard to the relevant laws of Panama, we are pleased to advise that in our
     opinion:

     (1)  Lessee was duly constituted in accordance with the laws of Panama on
          [________________] as [________________] and is a validly existing
          separate legal entity, is subject to suit in its own name, and, to the
          best of our knowledge, no steps have been, or are being, taken to
          appoint a receiver or liquidator over, or to dissolve, Lessee;

     (2)  Lessee has the corporate power to enter into and perform, and has
          taken all necessary corporate action to authorize the entry into,
          performance and delivery of, the Lease and the transactions
          contemplated by the Lease;

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

          (a)  conflict with any laws binding on Lessee;

          (b)  conflict with the constitutional documents of Lessee; or


                                     Page 1

<PAGE>

          (c)  conflict with or result in default under any document which is
               binding upon Lessee or any of its assets nor result in the
               creation of any Lien over any of its assets.

     (4)  no authorizations, consents, licenses, approvals and registrations
          (other than those which have been obtained and of which copies are
          attached hereto) are necessary or desirable to be obtained from any
          governmental or other regulatory authorities in the Jurisdiction of
          Incorporation to enable Lessee:

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

          (b)  to import the Aircraft into Panama for the duration of the Term;

          (c)  to operate the Aircraft for the transport of fare-paying
               passengers; or

          (d)  to make the payments provided for in the Lease in the currency,
               in the accounts and otherwise in accordance with the terms and
               conditions provided in the Lease;

     (5)  other than(i) registering the Aircraft and filing this Agreement with
          the Panamanian Directorate of Civil Aeronautics, and (ii) recording
          this Agreement and the bill of sale evidencing Lessor's title to the
          Aircraft with the Office of the Public Registry of Panama, it is not
          necessary or desirable, to ensure the priority, validity and
          enforceability of all the obligations of Lessee under the Lease that
          the Lease be filed, registered, recorded or notarized in any public
          office or elsewhere or that any other instrument relating thereto be
          signed, delivered, filed, registered or recorded, that any tax or duty
          be paid or that any other action whatsoever be taken under the laws of
          Panama; accordingly, upon completion of the registration and recording
          set forth above, pursuant to the Lease, Lessor will be deemed to be
          the full legal and beneficial owner of the Aircraft and all rights and
          interests with respect thereto, Lessee shall not be deemed to have
          acquired any interest in the Aircraft other than the leasehold
          interest contemplated by the Lease, and such leasehold interest of
          Lessee at all times shall be subject to the terms and conditions
          provided in the Lease;

     (6)  no other steps beyond (i) registering the Aircraft and filing this
          Agreement with the Panamanian Directorate of Civil Aeronautics, and
          (ii) recording this Agreement and the bill of sale evidencing Lessor's
          title to the Aircraft with the Office of the Public Registry of Panama
          are necessary or desirable to record or perfect Lessor's interest in
          the Aircraft in Panama;

     (7)  on termination of the Lease (whether on expiry or otherwise) as
          contemplated in the Lease, Lessor would be entitled:

          (a)  to repossess the Aircraft; and

          (b)  to export the Aircraft from Panama;

          governmental or regulatory authority in Panama;

          and the obligations on the part of Lessee contained therein, assuming

          and legally binding on and enforceable against Lessee respectively
          under the laws of Panama;

     (9)  the events described in Clause 13.1(7), (8) and (9) of the Lease
          comprise an accurate and complete statement of all events and
          situations provided for by the laws Panama which may lead to the
          cessation of activities, winding up or dissolution of Lessee, and upon
          the occurrence of any such described events, and the Lessor's exercise

          Events of Default: the Lease shall terminate; Lessee shall have no
          further interest in the Aircraft; the Aircraft shall be excluded from
          any reorganization or other legal proceedings with respect to the

          with respect to the Lessee or the Aircraft; and Lessor shall be
          entitled to immediate return and unrestricted possession and control
          of the Aircraft free and clear of any liens, claims or other
          encumbrances and without any liability to Lessee or any other Person;

     (10) Upon Lessor's giving the type of notice to Lessee set forth in Clause
          13.2(1) following an Event of Default of the type set forth in Clause

          with all other present and future unsecured and unsubordinated
          (including contingent) obligations of the Lessee upon an Event of
          Default or other breach by Lessee of the Lease, Lessor at all times
          shall be entitled without restriction to set off any damage suffered
          or amounts owing by Lessee against any obligation of Lessor to return

          performance to Lessee or any Person claiming by, through or on behalf
          of Lessee;

     (12) there is no withholding tax or other Tax to be deducted from any

          5.5, 5.6 and 5.9 of the Lease are fully effective; and the
          arrangements contemplated by the Lease do not give rise to any charge
          whatsoever to Taxes in Panama;

          a valid choice of law in any action in the Courts of Panama;

     (18) the consent to jurisdiction by Lessee contained in the Lease is valid
          and binding on Lessee and not subject to revocation;

     (19) any judgment for a definite sum given by an arbitration proceeding or

          performance of the Lease by Lessee constitute private and commercial
          acts;

     familiar with or qualified to express legal opinions based on, any law
     other than the laws of Panama and accordingly express no legal opinion
     herein based upon any law other than the laws of Panama.

Yours faithfully,
