    Section
      2.3.  Rent
      Payments.
      All

      such
      other party receiving such Rent shall pay the amount received to the other
      party
      within three Business Days after receipt.

     

    Section
      2.4.  Taxes.
      Seller
      shall be responsible for payment of and shall pay (at no after-tax cost to
      Purchaser, Owner Trustee or the Trust Estate (collectively, the “Tax
      Indemnitees”
and,
      individually, a “Tax
      Indemnitee”)
      any
      and all license, recording and documentation fees, and sales, use, excise,
      transfer, value added, gross receipts, property or any other similar taxes,
      fees
      or charges imposed on or with respect to the Aircraft, or the ownership,
      leasing, use or operation thereof or the rentals derived therefrom (hereinafter,
      individually, a “Covered
      Tax”,
      and
      collectively, “Covered
      Taxes”)
      imposed by the United States federal or any state or local government or taxing
      authority upon or in respect of the sale, assignment or transfer of the Equity
      Interest as contemplated hereby (provided, however, that Seller shall not be
      responsible for any (a) taxes based on, measured by, or with respect to net
      or gross income or capital of such Tax Indemnitee or (b) taxes related to
      the Aircraft and arising after the Closing). Seller shall indemnify each Tax
      Indemnitee against the imposition of any Covered Tax immediately upon receipt
      of
      such Indemnitee’s demand therefor, which demand shall be accompanied by
      documentation evidencing the imposition of such Covered Tax. Subject to the
      scheduled locations of the equipment constituting the Trust Estate on the
      Closing Date, Purchaser agrees to cooperate with Seller concerning the time
      of
      closing of the transaction contemplated hereby on the Closing Date so as to
      eliminate or minimize the imposition of any Taxes that otherwise might be
      imposed upon or in respect of the Equity Interest Transfer as contemplated
      hereby.

     

    If
      Seller
      disputes the payment of any Covered Taxes payable by Seller or Purchaser for
      which Seller is responsible under this Agreement, Seller shall have the right,
      at Seller’s expense, to contest the payment of such Covered Taxes, provided that
      (i) Purchaser in its sole discretion considers that such contest shall not
      materially prejudice it or result in any risk of criminal penalty or danger
      of
      sale, forfeiture or loss of the Aircraft or Equity Interest, (ii) Seller
      has provided Purchaser with an opinion, reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser,
      that it is more likely than not that the contest will be successful, and
      (iii) Seller has made adequate provision to the satisfaction of Purchaser
      in respect of the expenses concerned.
