      the
      parties, Sublandlord and Subtenant hereby agree as follows:

    As
      used
      herein, the “Rent Commencement Date” shall be the later of (i) the date that is
      forty-five (45) days after the Early Access Date, or (ii) October 1, 2006.
      Base
      Rent shall be paid on the first day of each month of the Term following the
      Base
      Rent Abatement Period (defined in Section 3.1(b) below), except that Subtenant
      shall pay one (1) month’s Base Rent to Sublandlord upon execution and delivery
      of this Sublease to Sublandlord; said pre-paid Base Rent will be applied by
      Sublandlord to Base Rent first due and payable hereunder following the Base
      Rent
      Abatement Period. Base Rent and Additional Rent (hereinafter defined) for any
      partial month shall be prorated by multiplying the monthly Base Rent and
      Additional Rent by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days
      of
      the partial month included in the Term and the denominator of which is the
      total
      number of days in the full calendar month. All
      Rent (hereinafter defined) shall be payable in lawful money of the United
      States, by regular bank check of Subtenant, to Sublandlord at the following
      address:

     

    1001
      Sunset Boulevard

    Rocklin,
      CA 95765

    Attn:
      Lease Administration

     

    or
      to
      such other persons or at such other places as Sublandlord may designate in
      writing.

     

    (b)    Abatement.
      Notwithstanding anything in Section 3(a) above to the contrary, so long as
      Subtenant is not in material monetary default (“Abatement Default”) under this
      Sublease, Subtenant shall be entitled to an abatement of Base Rent for the
      first
      three (3) full calendar months following the Rent Commencement Date (the "Base
      Rent Abatement Period"). The total amount of Base Rent abated during the Base
      Rent Abatement Period is referred to herein as the "Abated Base Rent". If
      Subtenant commits an Abatement Default hereunder at any time during the Term
      and
      fails to cure such Abatement Default within any applicable cure period, all
      then
      unamortized Abated Base Rent shall immediately become due and payable (assuming
      amortization of the Abated Base Rent on a straight-line basis over the Term).
      The payment by Subtenant then unamortized of the Abated Base Rent in the event
      of an Abatement Default shall not limit or affect any of Sublandlord's other
      rights, pursuant to this Sublease or at law or in equity. During the Base Rent
      Abatement Period, only Base Rent shall be abated, and all Additional Rent and
      other costs and charges specified in this Sublease shall remain as due and
      payable pursuant to the provisions of this Sublease.

     

    3.2    Operating
      Costs.

     

    (a)  Definitions.
      For
      purposes of this Sublease and in addition to the terms defined elsewhere in
      this
      Sublease, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth
      below:

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

       

    

    (1)    "Additional
      Rent"
      shall
      mean the sums payable pursuant to Section 3.2(b) below.

     

    (2)    "Base
      Operating Costs"
      shall
      mean Operating Costs payable by Sublandlord to Landlord for the Master Lease
      Premises during the Base Year.

     

    (3)    "Base
      Year"
      shall
      mean the calendar year 2007.

     

    (4)    "Operating
      Costs"
      shall
      mean the aggregate of Expenses and Taxes (as said terms defined in the Master
      Lease) charged by Landlord to Sublandlord pursuant to the Master
      Lease.

     

    (5)    "Rentable
      Area"
      of the
      Subleased Premises and of the Master Lease Premises is stipulated by Sublandlord
      and Subtenant to be 20,128 rentable square feet and 40,256 rentable square
      feet,
      respectively, for all purposes of this Sublease.

     

    (6)    "Rent"
      shall
      mean, collectively, Base Rent, Additional Rent, and all other sums payable
      by
      Subtenant to Sublandlord under this Sublease, whether or not expressly
      designated as "rent", all of which are deemed and designated as rent pursuant
      to
      the terms of this Sublease.

     

    (7)    "Subtenant's
      Percentage Share"
      shall
      mean 50%. Subtenant's Percentage Share has been obtained by dividing the
      Rentable Area of the Subleased Premises by the Rentable Area of the Master
      Lease
      Premises and multiplying such quotient by 100. In the event Subtenant's
      Percentage Share is changed during a calendar year by reason of a change in
      the
      Rentable Area of the Subleased Premises or the Master Lease Premises,
      Subtenant's Percentage Share shall thereupon be adjusted to equal the result
      obtained by dividing the Rentable Area of the Subleased Premises by the Rentable
      Area of the Master Lease Premises and multiplying such quotient by 100,
      Subtenant's Percentage Share shall be determined on the basis of the number
      of
      days during such calendar year at each such percentage share.

     

    (b)    Payment
      of Additional Rent.
      In
      addition to the Base Rent payable pursuant to Section 3.1 above, from and after
      the expiration of the Base Year, for each calendar year of the Term, Subtenant,
      as Additional Rent, shall pay Subtenant's Percentage Share of the amount by
      which Operating Costs payable by Sublandlord for the then current calendar
      year
      exceed Base Operating Costs. Sublandlord shall give Subtenant written notice
      of
      Sublandlord's estimate of the amount of Additional Rent per month payable
      pursuant to this Section 3.2(b) for each calendar year after the Base Year
      promptly following the Sublandlord's receipt of Landlord's estimate of the
      Operating Costs payable under the Master Lease. Thereafter, the Additional
      Rent
      payable pursuant to this Section 3.2(b) shall be determined and adjusted in
      accordance with the provisions of Section 3.2(c) below.

     

    (c)    Procedure.
      The
      determination and adjustment of Additional Rent payable hereunder shall be
      made
      in accordance with the following procedures:

     

    (1)    Delivery
      of Estimate; Payment.
      Upon
      receipt of a statement from Landlord specifying the estimated Operating Costs
      to
      be charged to Sublandlord under the Master Lease with respect to each calendar
      year, or as soon after receipt of such statement as practicable, Sublandlord
      shall give Subtenant written notice of its estimate of Additional Rent payable
      under Section 3.2(b) for the ensuing calendar year, which estimate shall be
      prepared based on the estimate received from Landlord (as Landlord's estimate
      may change from time to time), together with a copy of the statement received
      from Landlord. On or before the first day of each month during each calendar
      year following the Base Year, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord as Additional
      Rent one-twelfth (1/12th) of such estimated amount together with the Base
      Rent.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

       

    

    (2)    Sublandlord’s
      Failure to Deliver Estimate.
      In the
      event Sublandlord's notice set forth in Subsection 3.2(c)(1) is not given on
      or
      before December of the calendar year preceding the calendar year for which
      Sublandlord's notice is applicable, as the case may be, then until the calendar
      month after such notice is delivered by Sublandlord, Subtenant shall continue
      to
      pay to Sublandlord monthly, during the ensuing calendar year, estimated payments
      equal to the amounts payable hereunder during the calendar year just ended.
      Upon
      receipt of any such post-December notice Subtenant shall (i) commence as of
      the
      immediately following calendar month, and continue for the remainder of the
      calendar year, to pay to Sublandlord monthly such new estimated payments and
      (ii) if the monthly installment of the new estimate of such Additional Rent
      is
      greater than the monthly installment of the estimate for the previous calendar
      year, pay to Sublandlord within thirty (30) days of the receipt of such notice
      an amount equal to the difference of such monthly installment multiplied by
      the
      number of full and partial calendar months of such year preceding the delivery
      of such notice.

     

    (d)    Year
      End Reconciliation.
      Within
      thirty (30) days after the receipt by Sublandlord of a final statement of
      Operating Costs from Landlord with respect to each calendar year, Sublandlord
      shall deliver to Subtenant a statement of the adjustment to be made pursuant
      to
      Section 3.2 above for the calendar year just ended, together with a copy of
      any
      corresponding statement received by Sublandlord from Landlord. If on the basis
      of such statement Subtenant owes an amount that is less than the estimated
      payments actually made by Subtenant for the calendar year just ended,
      Sublandlord shall credit such excess to the next payments of Rent coming due
      or,
      if the term of this Sublease is about to expire, promptly refund such excess
      to
      Subtenant. If on the basis of such statement Subtenant owes an amount that
      is
      more than the estimated payments for the calendar year just ended previously
      made by Subtenant, Subtenant shall pay the deficiency to Sublandlord within
      thirty (30) days after delivery of the statement from Sublandlord to
      Subtenant.

     

    (e)    Survival.
      The
      expiration or earlier termination of this Sublease shall not affect the
      obligations of Sublandlord and Subtenant pursuant to Subsection 3.2(d), and
      such
      obligations shall survive and remain to be performed after any expiration or
      earlier termination of this Sublease.

     

    4.    Security
      Deposit.
      Concurrently with Subtenant's execution of this Sublease, Subtenant shall
      deposit with Sublandlord the sum of $72,460.80 (the "Security Deposit"). The
      Security Deposit shall be held by Sublandlord as security for the faithful
      performance by Subtenant of all the provisions of this Sublease to be performed
      or observed by Subtenant. If Subtenant fails to pay rent or other sums due
      hereunder, or otherwise defaults with respect to any provisions of this
      Sublease, Sublandlord may use, apply or retain all or any portion of the
      Security Deposit for the payment of any rent or other sum in default or for
      the
      payment of any other sum to which Sublandlord may become obligated by reason
      of
      Subtenant's default, or to compensate Sublandlord for any loss or damage which
      Sublandlord may suffer thereby. If Sublandlord so uses or applies all or any
      portion of the Security Deposit, Subtenant shall within ten (10) days after
      demand therefor deposit cash with Sublandlord in an amount sufficient to restore
      the Security Deposit to the full amount thereof and Subtenant's failure to
      do so
      shall be a material breach of this Sublease. Sublandlord shall not be required
      to keep the Security Deposit separate from its general accounts. If Subtenant
      performs all of Subtenant's obligations hereunder, the Security Deposit, or
      so
      much thereof as has not theretofore been applied by Sublandlord, shall be
      returned, without interest, to Subtenant (or, at Sublandlord's option, to the
      last assignee, if any, of Subtenant's interest hereunder) within forty-five
      (45)
      days following the later to occur of (x) the expiration of the Term, and (y)
      the
      date upon which Subtenant has vacated the Subleased Premises. No trust
      relationship is created herein between Sublandlord and Subtenant with respect
      to
      the Security Deposit. Sublandlord shall not be required to keep the Security
      Deposit separate from its other accounts. Subtenant hereby waives any and all
      rights under and the benefits of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code,
      and all other provisions of law now in force or that become in force after
      the
      date of execution of this Sublease, that provide that Sublandlord may claim
      from
      a security deposit only those sums reasonably necessary to remedy defaults
      in
      the payment of Rent, to repair damage caused by Subtenant, or to clean the
      Subleased Premises. Sublandlord and Subtenant agree that Sublandlord may, in
      addition, claim those sums reasonably necessary to compensate Sublandlord for
      any other foreseeable or unforeseeable loss or damage caused by the act or
      omission of Subtenant or Subtenant’s officers, agents, employees, independent
      contractors, or invitees.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

       

    

    5.    Use
      and Occupancy.

     

    5.1    Use.
      The
      Subleased Premises shall be used and occupied only for general office use,
      and
      for no other use or purpose.

     

    5.2    Compliance
      with Master Lease.
      Subtenant agrees that it will occupy the Subleased Premises in accordance with
      the terms of the Master Lease and will not suffer to be done or omit to do
      any
      act which may result in a violation of or a default under any of the terms
      and
      conditions of the Master Lease, or render Sublandlord liable for any damage,
      charge or expense thereunder. Subtenant further covenants and agrees to
      indemnify Sublandlord against and hold Sublandlord harmless from any claim,
      demand, action, proceeding, suit, liability, loss, judgment, expense (including
      attorneys fees) and damages of any kind or nature whatsoever arising out of,
      by
      reason of, or resulting from, Subtenant's failure to perform or observe any
      of
      the terms and conditions of the Master Lease or this Sublease. Any other
      provision in this Sublease to the contrary notwithstanding, Subtenant shall
      pay
      to Sublandlord as Rent hereunder any and all sums which Sublandlord may be
      required to pay the Landlord arising out of a request by Subtenant for, or
      use
      by Subtenant of, additional or over-standard Building services from Landlord
      (for example, but not by way of limitation, charges associated with after-hour
      HVAC usage and overstandard electrical charges). Subject to the foregoing and
      to
      the terms and provisions of the Master Lease, Subtenant shall have access to
      the
      Subleased Premises 24 hours per day, 7 days per week.

     

    5.3    Landlord’s
      Obligations.
      Subtenant agrees that Sublandlord shall not be required to perform any of the
      covenants, agreements and/or obligations of Landlord under the Master Lease
      and,
      insofar as any of the covenants, agreements and obligations of Sublandlord
      hereunder are required to be performed under the Master Lease by Landlord
      thereunder, Subtenant acknowledges and agrees that Sublandlord shall be entitled
      to look to Landlord for such performance. In addition, Sublandlord shall have
      no
      obligation to perform any repairs or any other obligation of Landlord under
      the
      Master Lease. Sublandlord shall not be responsible for any failure or
      interruption, for any reason whatsoever, of the services or facilities that
      may
      be appurtenant to or supplied at the Building by Landlord or otherwise,
      including, without limitation, heat, air conditioning, ventilation, life-safety,
      water, electricity, elevator service and cleaning service, if any; and no
      failure to furnish, or interruption of, any such services or facilities shall
      give rise to any (i) abatement, diminution or reduction of Subtenant's
      obligations under this Sublease, except to the extent that Sublandlord’s
      obligations under the Master Lease are also abated, or (ii) liability on the
      part of Sublandlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sublandlord shall promptly
      take such action as may reasonably be indicated, under the circumstances, to
      secure such performance upon Subtenant's request to Sublandlord to do so and
      shall thereafter diligently prosecute such performance on the part of
      Landlord.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

       

    

    6.    Master
      Lease and Sublease Terms.

     

    6.1    Subject
      to Master Lease.
      This
      Sublease is and shall be at all times subject and subordinate to the Master
      Lease. Subtenant acknowledges that Subtenant has reviewed and is familiar with
      all of the terms, agreements, covenants and conditions of the Master Lease.
      Additionally, Subtenant's rights under this Sublease shall be subject to the
      terms of the Consent. During the Term and for all periods subsequent thereto
      with respect to obligations which have arisen prior to the termination of this
      Sublease, Subtenant agrees to perform and comply with, for the benefit of
      Sublandlord and Landlord, the obligations of Sublandlord under the Master Lease
      which pertain to the Subleased Premises and/or this Sublease, except for those
      provisions of the Master Lease which are directly contradicted by this Sublease,
      in which event the terms of this Sublease document shall control over the Master
      Lease.

     

    6.2    Incorporation
      of Terms of Master Lease.
      The
      terms, conditions and respective obligations of Sublandlord and Subtenant to
      each other under this Sublease shall be the terms and conditions of the Master
      Lease, except for those provisions of the Master Lease which are directly
      contradicted by this Sublease, in which event the terms of this Sublease shall
      control over the Master Lease. Therefore, for the purposes of this Sublease,
      wherever in the Master Lease the word "Landlord" is used it shall be deemed
      to
      mean Sublandlord and wherever in the Master Lease the word "Tenant" is used
      it
      shall be deemed to mean Subtenant. Any non-liability, release, indemnity or
      hold
      harmless provision in the Master Lease for the benefit of Landlord that is
      incorporated herein by reference, shall be deemed to inure to the benefit of
      Sublandlord, Landlord, and any other person intended to be benefited by said
      provision, for the purpose of incorporation by reference in this Sublease.
      Any
      right of Landlord under the Master Lease (a) of access or inspection, (b) to
      do
      work in the Master Lease Premises or in the Building, (c) in respect of rules
      and regulations, which is incorporated herein by reference, shall be deemed
      to
      inure to the benefit of Sublandlord, Landlord, and any other person intended
      to
      be benefited by said provision, for the purpose of incorporation by reference
      in
      this Sublease.

     

    6.3    Modifications.
      For the
      purposes of incorporation herein, the terms of the Master Lease are subject
      to
      the following additional modifications:

     

    (a)    Approvals.
      In all
      provisions of the Master Lease (under the terms thereof and without regard
      to
      modifications thereof for purposes of incorporation into this Sublease)
      requiring the approval or consent of Landlord, Subtenant shall be required
      to
      obtain the approval or consent of both Sublandlord and Landlord.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

       

    

    (b)    Deliveries.
      In all
      provisions of the Master Lease requiring Tenant to submit, exhibit to, supply
      or
      provide Landlord with evidence, certificates, or any other matter or thing,
      Subtenant shall be required to submit, exhibit to, supply or provide, as the
      case may be, the same to both Landlord and Sublandlord.

     

    (c)    Damage;
      Condemnation.
      Sublandlord shall have no obligation to restore or rebuild any portion of the
      Subleased Premises after any destruction or taking by eminent
      domain.

     

    (d)    Insurance.
      In all
      provisions of the Master Lease requiring Tenant to designate Landlord as an
      additional or named insured on its insurance policy, Subtenant shall be required
      to so designate Landlord and Sublandlord on its insurance policy. Subtenant
      will
      maintain the insurance coverage described in Section 9.2 of the Original Master
      Lease.

     

    6.4    Exclusions.
      Notwithstanding the terms of Section 6.2 above, Subtenant shall have no rights

    6.5    Modifications.
      Notwithstanding the terms of Section 6.2 above, the following provisions of
      the
      Master Lease are modified as described below for the purpose of their
      incorporation into this Sublease.

     

    (a)    Subtenant
      will not be entitled to any abatement of Rent pursuant to the provisions of
      Section 5.3 of the Original Master Lease except to the extent that Sublandlord
      is entitled to a similar abatement;

     

    (b)    Subtenant
      shall have the right to use parking spaces pursuant to Section 16 of this
      Sublease, subject to the provisions of Section 19 of the Master
      Lease;

     

    (c)    Subject
      to Landlord’s consent, Subtenant shall have the right, at Subtenant’s expense,
      to include one (1) listing in the Building directory board in the Main Building
      lobby and to install one (1) sign at the entrance to the Subleased Premises,
      subject to the provisions of Section 21.1 of the Original Master
      Lease.

     

    7.    Assignment
      and Subletting.
      Subtenant shall not assign this Sublease or further sublet all or any part
      of
      the Subleased Premises except subject to and in compliance with all of the
      terms
      and conditions of Article 13 of the Original Master Lease, and Sublandlord
      (in
      addition to Master Landlord) shall have the same rights with respect to
      assignment and subleasing as Landlord has under said Article 13.

     

    8.    Default.
      Except
      as expressly set forth herein, Subtenant shall perform all obligations in
      respect of the Subleased Premises that Sublandlord would be required to perform
      pursuant to the Master Lease. It shall constitute an event of default hereunder
      if Subtenant fails to perform any obligation hereunder (including, without
      limitation, the obligation to pay Rent), or any obligation under the Master
      Lease which has been incorporated herein by reference, and, in each instance,
      Subtenant has not remedied such failure after delivery of any written notice
      required under this Sublease and passage of fifty percent (50%) of any
      applicable grace or cure period provided in the Master Lease as modified, if
      at
      all, by the provisions of this Sublease, provided that with respect to
      non-monetary defaults, Subtenant’s cure period shall be the longer of (A)
      one-half of, or (B) five (5) days less than, the actual cure period provided
      for
      such non-monetary default under the Master Lease.

     

    9.    Remedies.
      In the
      event of any default hereunder by Subtenant, Sublandlord shall have all remedies
      provided to the “Landlord” in the Master Lease as if an event of default had
      occurred thereunder and all other rights and remedies otherwise available at
      law
      and in equity. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Sublandlord
      may
      continue this Sublease in effect after Subtenant’s breach and abandonment and
      recover Rent as it becomes due. Sublandlord may resort to its remedies
      cumulatively or in the alternative. 

     

    10.         
      Right
      to Cure Defaults.
      If
      Subtenant fails to perform any of its obligations under this Sublease after
      expiration of applicable grace or cure periods, then Sublandlord may, but shall
      not be obligated to, perform any such obligations for Subtenant’s account. All
      costs and expenses incurred by Sublandlord in performing any such act for the
      account of Subtenant shall be deemed Rent payable by Subtenant to Sublandlord
      upon demand, together with interest thereon at the lesser of (i) twelve percent
      (12%) per annum or (ii) the maximum rate allowable under law (the “Interest
      Rate”) from the date of the expenditure until repaid. If Sublandlord undertakes
      to perform any of Subtenant’s obligations for the account of Subtenant pursuant
      hereto, the taking of such action shall not constitute a waiver of any of
      Sublandlord’s remedies. Subtenant hereby expressly waives its rights under any
      statute to make repairs at the expense of Sublandlord.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

       

    

    11.    Consents
      and Approvals.
      In any
      instance when Sublandlord's consent or approval is required under this Sublease,
      Sublandlord's refusal to consent to or approve any matter or thing shall be
      deemed reasonable if, among other matters, such consent or approval is required
      under the provisions of the Master Lease incorporated herein by reference but
      has not been obtained from Landlord. Except as otherwise provided herein,
      Sublandlord shall not unreasonably withhold, or delay its consent to or approval
      of a matter if such consent or approval is required under the provisions of
      the
      Master Lease and Landlord has consented to or approved of such
      matter.

     

    12.    Sublandlord’s
      Liability.
      Notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Sublease, the liability
      of
      Sublandlord to Subtenant for any default in Sublandlord’s obligations under this
      Sublease shall be limited to actual, direct damages, and under no circumstances
      shall Subtenant, its partners, members, shareholders, directors, agents,
      officers, employees, contractors, sublessees, successors and/or assigns be
      entitled to recover from Sublandlord (or otherwise be indemnified by
      Sublandlord) for (a) any losses, costs, claims, causes of action, damages or
      other liability incurred in connection with a failure of Landlord, its partners,
      members, shareholders, directors, agents, officers, employees, contractors,
      successors and /or assigns to perform or cause to be performed Landlord’s
      obligations under the Master Lease, (b) lost revenues, lost profit or other
      consequential, special or punitive damages arising in connection with this
      Sublease for any reason, or (c) subject to Section 14, any damages or other
      liability arising from or incurred in connection with the suitability of the
      Subleased Premises for Subtenant’s intended uses or the condition of the
      Subleased Premises, other than liability arising from Sublandlord’s gross
      negligence. Subtenant shall, however, have the right to seek any injunctive
      or
      other equitable remedies as may be available to Subtenant under applicable
      law.
      Notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Sublease, no personal
      liability shall at any time be asserted or enforceable against Sublandlord’s
      stockholders, directors, officers, or partners on account of any of
      Sublandlord’s obligations or actions under this Sublease. As used in this
      Sublease, the term “Sublandlord” means the holder of the tenant’s interest under
      the Master Lease and “Sublandlord” means the holder of sublandlord’s interest
      under this Sublease. In the event of any assignment or transfer of the
      Sublandlord’s interest under this Sublease, which assignment or transfer may
      occur at any time during the Term in Sublandlord’s sole discretion, Sublandlord
      shall be and hereby is entirely relieved of all covenants and obligations of
      Sublandlord hereunder accruing subsequent to the date of the transfer and it
      shall be deemed and construed, without further agreement between the parties
      hereto, that any transferee has assumed and shall carry out all covenants and
      obligations thereafter to be performed by Sublandlord hereunder. Sublandlord
      may
      transfer and deliver any then existing Security Deposit to the transferee of
      Sublandlord’s interest under this Sublease, and thereupon Sublandlord shall be
      discharged from any further liability with respect thereto.

     

    13.    Attorneys’
      Fees.
      If
      Sublandlord or Subtenant brings an action to enforce the terms hereof or to
      declare rights hereunder, the prevailing party who recovers substantially all
      of
      the damages, equitable relief or other remedy sought in any such action on
      trial
      and appeal shall be entitled to receive from the other party its costs
      associated therewith, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's
      fees
      and costs from the other party.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

       

    

    14.    Delivery
      of Possession.

     

    14.1    Generally.
      Sublandlord represents that it has no notice of any violation of environmental
      laws or regulations with respect to the condition of the Subleased Premises.
      Subject to the foregoing representation, Sublandlord shall deliver, and
      Subtenant shall accept, possession of the Subleased Premises in their "AS IS"
      condition as the Subleased Premises exists on the date hereof. Sublandlord
      shall
      have no obligation to furnish, render or supply any work, labor, services,
      materials, furniture (other than the Furniture, defined below), fixtures,
      equipment, decorations or other items to make the Subleased Premises ready
      or
      suitable for Subtenant's occupancy. In making and executing this Sublease,
      Subtenant has relied solely on such investigations, examinations and inspections
      as Subtenant has chosen to make or has made and has not relied on any
      representation or warranty concerning the Subleased Premises or the Building,
      except as expressly set forth in this Sublease. Subtenant acknowledges that
      Sublandlord has afforded Subtenant the opportunity for full and complete
      investigations, examinations and inspections of the Subleased Premises and
      the
      common areas of the Building. Subtenant acknowledges that it is not authorized
      to make or do any alterations or improvements in or to the Subleased Premises
      except as permitted by the provisions of this Sublease and the Master Lease
      and
      that upon termination of this Sublease, Subtenant shall deliver the Subleased
      Premises to Sublandlord in the same condition as the Subleased Premises were
      at
      the commencement of the Term, reasonable wear and tear excepted; Subtenant
      acknowledges that the foregoing provision requires Subtenant to remove from
      the
      Subleased Premises any improvements constructed therein by Subtenant unless
      Sublandlord shall have previously agreed that such improvements do not have
      to
      be removed; additionally, at Subtenant’s cost, Subtenant will remove all
      telecommunications and data cabling installed by Subtenant.

     

    14.2        
      Subtenant's
      Improvements.

     

    (a)    Generally.
      If
      Subtenant constructs improvements within the Subleased Premises ("Subtenant
      Improvements"), all Subtenant Improvements shall be carried out in accordance
      with the Master Lease. Sublandlord will have the right to approve the plans
      and
      specifications for any proposed Subtenant Improvements, as well as any
      contractors whom Subtenant proposes to retain to perform such work. Accordingly,
      Subtenant will submit all such information for Sublandlord’s review and written
      approval prior to commencement of any such work. Subtenant expressly
      acknowledges that Landlord or Sublandlord may require Subtenant to remove some
      or all of the Subtenant Improvements at the expiration or sooner termination
      of
      the Term. Promptly following the completion of any Subtenant Improvements or
      subsequent alterations or additions by or on behalf of Subtenant, Subtenant
      will
      deliver to Sublandlord a reproducible copy of “as built” drawings of such work
      together with a CAD file of the “as-built” drawings in the then-current version
      of AutoCad. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sublandlord hereby approves the
      conceptual changes to the Subleased Premises based on the space plan attached
      hereto as Exhibit
      D
      (Block
      Plan 6 - BP6) and will not require Subtenant to remove such improvements unless
      it is a requirement of the Landlord.

     

    (b)    Code-Required
      Work.
      If the
      performance of any Subtenant Improvements or other work by Subtenant within
      the
      Subleased Premises "triggers" a requirement for code-related upgrades to or
      improvements of any portion of the Master Leased Premises or any common areas,
      Subtenant shall be responsible for the cost of such code-required upgrade or
      improvements.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

       

    

    15.    Holding
      Over.
      If
      Subtenant fails to surrender the Subleased Premises at the expiration or earlier
      termination of this Sublease, occupancy of the Subleased Premises after the
      termination or expiration shall be that of a tenancy at sufferance. Subtenant’s
      occupancy of the Subleased Premises during the holdover shall be subject to
      all
      the terms and provisions of this Sublease and Subtenant shall pay an amount
      (on
      a per month basis without reduction for partial months during the holdover)
      equal to 150% of the sum of the Base Rent and Additional Rent due for the period
      immediately preceding the holdover. No holdover by Subtenant or payment by
      Subtenant after the expiration or early termination of this Sublease shall
      be
      construed to extend the Term or prevent Sublandlord from immediate recovery
      of

      a result of Subtenant’s holdover or perform improvements, Subtenant shall be
      liable to Sublandlord for all damages, including, without limitation,
      consequential damages, that Sublandlord suffers from the holdover; Subtenant
      expressly acknowledges that such damages may include all of the holdover rent

      next

      next succeeding delivery to the courier, and if mailed by United States
      certified or registered mail, three (3) business days following such mailing

    18.    Furniture.
      During
      the Term, at no charge to Subtenant, Subtenant shall be permitted to use the
      existing modular and office furniture and data and telephone cabling located
      in
      the Subleased Premises and described in more particular detail in Exhibit
      C
      attached
      hereto (the “Furniture”). Subtenant shall accept the Furniture in its current
      condition without any warranty of fitness from Sublandlord (Subtenant expressly
      acknowledges that no warranty is made by Sublandlord with respect to the
      condition of any cabling currently located in or serving the Subleased
      Premises); for purposes of documenting the current condition of the Furniture,
      Subtenant and Sublandlord shall, prior to the Commencement Date, conduct a
      joint
      walk-through of the Subleased Premises in order to inventory items of damage
      or
      disrepair in the Furniture. Subtenant shall use the Furniture only for the
      purposes for which such Furniture is intended and shall be responsible for
      the
      proper maintenance, care and repair of the Furniture, at Subtenant’s sole cost
      and expense, and using maintenance contractors specified by Sublandlord. No
      item
      of Furniture shall be removed from the Subleased Premises without Sublandlord’s
      prior written consent. On or about the date of expiration of the Term, the
      parties shall once again conduct a walk-through of the Subleased Premises to
      catalog any items of damage, disrepair, misuse or loss among the Furniture
      (reasonable wear and tear excepted), and Subtenant shall be responsible, at
      Subtenant’s sole cost and expense, for curing any such items (including, with
      respect to loss, replacing any lost item with a substantially similar new item
      reasonably acceptable to Sublandlord). Subtenant shall not modify, reconfigure
      or relocate any furniture except with the advanced written permission of
      Sublandlord, and any work of modifying any Furniture (including, without
      limitation, changing the configuration of, “breaking down” or reassembly of
      cubicles or other modular furniture) shall be performed at Subtenant's sole
      cost
      using Sublandlord’s specified vendors or an alternate vendor approved in writing
      by Sublandlord (such approval to be granted or withheld on Sublandlord's good
      faith discretion, based upon Sublandlord's assessment of factors which include,
      without limitation, whether the performance by such vendor will void applicable
      warranties for such furniture and whether such vendor is sufficiently
      experienced in the design of such furniture). Notwithstanding the foregoing,
      Sublandlord hereby approves the conceptual furniture changes in the Subleased
      Premises based on the drawings attached hereto as Exhibit
      E
      that is
      in accordance with the Subtenant Improvements required in Block Plan 6
      (Exhibit
      D).

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

       

    

    19.    Brokers.
      Subtenant represents that it has dealt directly with and only with Studley,
      Inc.
      (“Subtenant’s Broker”), as a broker in connection with this Sublease.
      Sublandlord represents that it has dealt directly with and only with Trammell
      Crow Company (“Sublandlord’s Broker”), as a broker in connection with this
      Sublease. Sublandlord and Subtenant shall indemnify and hold each other harmless
      from all claims of any brokers other than Subtenant’s Broker and Sublandlord’s
      Broker claiming to have represented Sublandlord or Subtenant in connection
      with
      this Sublease. Subtenant and Sublandlord agree that Subtenant’s Broker and
      Sublandlord’s Broker shall be paid commissions by Sublandlord in connection with
      this Sublease pursuant to a separate agreement.

     

    20.    Right
      of First Refusal.
      Subject
      to Landlord’s consent, prior to subleasing all or any portion of the Master
      Lease Premises on the fifth (5th) floor of the Building (“Expansion Space”),
      Subtenant shall have the on-going right of first refusal to sublease (“Right of
      First Refusal”) any available Expansion Space so long as such space is leased
      and controlled by the Sublandlord. If Sublandlord and a prospective new
      subtenant agree on economic terms pursuant to which such subtenant will sublease
      any of the Expansion Space (“Approved Sublease Offer”), then Sublandlord shall
      deliver a written offer (“Offer”) to Subtenant setting forth the terms of
      Approved Sublease Offer (the “Refusal Notice”) and Subtenant shall have a right,
      to be exercised by the delivery of irrevocable written notice to Sublandlord
      within five (5) days after delivery of the Refusal Notice, to sublease the
      Offered Space on the terms and conditions set forth in the Refusal Notice.
      If
      Subtenant does not timely elect to Sublease the applicable Expansion Space
      on
      the terms set forth in the Refusal Offer, then Sublandlord shall be free to
      sublease the applicable space to the prospective new subtenant based on such
      terms and conditions in the Approved Sublease Offer; provided, however, if
      Sublandlord is willing to sublease the applicable space to the prospective
      subtenant upon Economic Terms (defined below) which are more than five percent
      (5%) less than the Economic Terms set forth in the Refusal Notice, Sublandlord
      must first re-offer the space at the revised Economic Terms (“Revised Offer”) to
      Subtenant after which Subtenant shall have five (5) days to accept the Revised
      Offer. If Subtenant fails to timely accept the Revised Offer, then Sublandlord
      shall be free to sublease the space to the prospective subtenant pursuant to
      such terms and conditions in the Revised Offer. If Subtenant timely accepts
      the
      Offer or the Revised Offer, as applicable, then Sublandlord shall prepare and
      submit to Subtenant an amendment to this Sublease containing the terms of the
      Refusal Notice or the Revised Offer, as applicable, and otherwise on the form
      of
      amendment then in use by Sublandlord and reasonably approved by Subtenant.
      Subtenant shall execute and deliver such an amendment to Sublandlord within
      ten
      (10) business days after delivery of same to Subtenant for execution. However,
      if Subtenant fails to timely execute and deliver the amendment (or fails to
      object to the terms contained therein as not correctly being in accordance
      with
      the terms of the Refusal Notice, Revised Offer, or this Sublease), Subtenant
      shall nonetheless be irrevocably bound to sublease the applicable space from
      Sublandlord on the terms set forth in the Refusal Notice or the Revised Offer.
      This Right of First Refusal is personal to the original Subtenant, and shall
      automatically terminate with the expiration or sooner termination of this
      Sublease, the expiration or earlier termination of the Master Lease with respect
      to the fifth (5th) floor of the Building, or upon the assignment of the Sublease
      (to a non-affiliated entity of Subtenant) or the sub-subletting of all or more
      than fifty percent (50%) of the rentable area in the original Subleased
      Premises. As used herein, “Economic Terms” shall mean the net, aggregated, cost
      to Subtenant or another party, on a present value basis, of the following terms
      for the space in question: (i) the rental rate, (ii) the amount of any subtenant
      improvement allowance (which amount is a deduction from Subtenant's or the
      other
      party's cost), (iii) the amount of free rent (which amount is a deduction from
      Subtenant's or the other party's cost), (iv) the amount of protection from
      the
      payment of operating and tax expenses , and (v) any other lease concessions
      or
      inducements which have a reasonably ascertainable monetary value.

     

    21.    Complete
      Agreement.
      There
      are no representations, warranties, agreements, arrangements or understandings,
      oral or written, between the parties or their representatives relating to the
      subject matter of this Sublease which are not fully expressed in this Sublease.
      This Sublease cannot be changed or terminated nor may any of its provisions
      be
      waived orally or in any manner other than by a written agreement executed by
      both parties.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

       

    

    22.    Interpretation.
      Irrespective of the place of execution or performance, this Sublease shall
      be
      governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
      California. If any provision of this Sublease or the application thereof to
      any
      person or circumstance shall, for any reason and to any extent, be invalid
      or
      unenforceable, the remainder of this Sublease and the application of that
      provision to other persons or circumstances shall not be affected but rather
      shall be enforced to the extent permitted by law. The table of contents,
      captions, headings and titles, if any, in this Sublease are solely for
      convenience of reference and shall not affect its interpretation. This Sublease
      shall be construed without regard to any presumption or other rule requiring
      construction against the party causing this Sublease or any part thereof to
      be
      drafted. If any words or phrases in this Sublease shall have been stricken
      out
      or otherwise eliminated, whether or not any other words or phrases have been
      added, this Sublease shall be construed as if the words or phrases so stricken
      out or otherwise eliminated were never included in this Sublease and no
      implication or inference shall be drawn from the fact that said words or phrases
      were so stricken out or otherwise eliminated. Each covenant, agreement,
      obligation or other provision of this Sublease shall be deemed and construed
      as
      a separate and independent covenant of the party bound by, undertaking or making
      same, not dependent on any other provision of this Sublease unless otherwise
      expressly provided. All terms and words used in this Sublease, regardless of
      the
      number or gender in which they are used, shall be deemed to include any other
      number and any other gender as the context may require. The word "person" as
      used in this Sublease shall mean a natural person or persons, a partnership,
      a
      corporation or any other form of business or legal association or
      entity.

     

    23.    Counterparts.
      This
      Sublease may be executed in separate counterparts, each of which shall
      constitute an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the
      same instrument. This Sublease shall be fully executed when each party whose
      signature is required has signed and delivered to each of the parties at least
      one counterpart, even though no single counterpart contains the signatures
      of
      all parties hereto.

     

    IN
      WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto hereby execute this Sublease as of the
      day
      and year first above written.

number in the Aircraft Age Range but does not equal or exceed the third next
higher (i.e., the seventh lowest)
integral number within the Aircraft Age Range, the applicable Base Advance Rate
will decrease by 0.375 percentage points so long as Critical Mass does not
exist, and by 0.25 percentage points while Critical Mass exists, and (ii) for
each additional third higher integral number within the Aircraft Age Range that
such Aircraft Age at least equals but does not exceed, the applicable Base
Advance Rate will decrease by an additional 0.375 percentage points so long as
Critical Mass does not exist, and by an additional 0.25 percentage points while
Critical Mass exists.

 

An Aircraft of
any particular Type whose Aircraft Age exceeds (measuring by integral months of
Aircraft Age) the related Aircraft Age Limit at the time of its proposed
addition to the Borrower’s Portfolio, is not eligible to become a Funded
Aircraft and accordingly has a zero Advance Rate. It is understood that the
Aircraft Age Advance Rate Adjustment is applied to a particular Aircraft in
determining a Borrowing Base for that Aircraft as of the date it first becomes
a Funded Aircraft hereunder (and based on its deemed Aircraft Age on that date
as described in the definition of Aircraft Age), but no further adjustment is
to occur due to the aging of the Aircraft after such date for so long as it
remains a Funded Aircraft within the Borrower’s Portfolio; provided that
upon the occurrence of a Freighter Conversion Effective Date for such Aircraft,
the next Borrowing Base determination after such date will reflect the change
in Aircraft Age due to such Freighter Conversion (as contemplated in the
definition of Aircraft Age), after which no further adjustment is to occur due
to the aging of the Aircraft after such determination for so long as it remains
a Funded Aircraft within the Borrower’s Portfolio.

 

“Aircraft
Age Limit” means, for each Type of Aircraft listed on Table 1 to Appendix I
hereto, the highest number in the Aircraft Age Range. An Aircraft of any
particular Type whose Aircraft Age exceeds the Aircraft Age Limit for such Type
at the time of its proposed addition to the Borrower’s Portfolio, is not
eligible to become a Funded Aircraft hereunder.

 

“Aircraft
Age Range” means, for each Type of Aircraft listed on Table 1 to Appendix I
hereto, the range of months for Aircraft Age set forth under the category “Maximum
Age” for that Type on Table 1 of Appendix I.

Asset Expenses” has the meaning set forth in the Servicing Agreement; provided,
that when such term is used in the Flow of Funds, Aircraft Asset Expenses shall
not be deemed to include expenses that have been paid with funds withdrawn from
the Maintenance Reserve Account or the Security Deposit Account, and also shall
not include expenses and costs attributable to Approved Asset Improvements.

 

7

 

“Aircraft
Assets” means one or more Aircraft, together with the related assets with
respect thereto, including, without limitation, the Leases with respect to such
Aircraft (and the Related Security with respect thereto) and any related

or (B) in the case of the ANA Aircraft, the sole beneficial owner (pursuant to
the ANA Beneficial Ownership Structure) of the ANA Aircraft listed to the right
of such Person’s name on such Schedule II hereto, and (iv) a Person in
which the Borrower owns, whether directly or indirectly, all of the Equity
Interests.

 

“Aircraft
Type Concentration Limit” means, for each Type of Aircraft listed on Table
1 to Appendix I hereto, the highest percentage in the Aircraft Type
Concentration Range, or if no Aircraft Type Concentration Range is listed for
such Type, then the single percentage for that Type, set forth under the

integral percentage point in the Aircraft Type Concentration Range (“ATCR”) for
those Types which have an ATCR, or the related Aircraft Type Concentration
Limit for those Types which do not have an ATCR, there is no adjustment; and

 

(b)         for
Types which have an ATCR, (i) if the ATCP at least equals or exceeds the second
lowest integral percentage point in the ATCR but does not equal or exceed the
next highest integral percentage point within the ATCR, the applicable Base
Advance Rate will decrease by 0.60 percentage points so long as Critical Mass
does not exist, or by 0.40 percentage points while Critical Mass exists, and
(ii) for each additional integral percentage point within the ATCR that the
ATCP equals or exceeds, the applicable Base Advance Rate will decrease by an
additional 0.60 percentage points while Critical Mass does not exist, or by an
additional 0.40 percentage points while Critical Mass exists, and

 

(c)          for
all Types, to the extent the ATCP exceeds the relevant Aircraft Type Concentration
Limit (which is the highest percentage point in the ATCR for Types which have
an ATCR), the Adjusted Borrowing Value attributable to Aircraft of such Type
that is used in calculating any Borrowing Base will be reduced to the highest
amount which, if used in the calculation of ATCP, would not cause such an
excess.

57

 

(g) Class A
Advance Limits, etc. Advances pursuant to clauses (a) and (d) above are
subject to the following requirements:

 

(i)            Initial Class A
Advances, Initial Class B Advances and Initial Class C Advances, and Additional
Class A Advances, Additional Class B Advances and Additional Class C Advances
relating to the same Aircraft (or the same Critical Mass Event Advance or
Increased Availability Advance or Improvement Advance, as the case may be), in
each case shall be made on the same date (the “Initial Advance Date” or
an “Additional Advance Date”, as applicable);

 

(ii)           After giving effect
to such Advances, the Outstanding Class A Principal Amount outstanding
hereunder shall not exceed the Maximum Class A Principal Amount and the Outstanding
Class A Principal Amount advanced by any Non-Conduit Lender shall not exceed
the Non-Conduit Lender Commitment of such Non-Conduit Lender;

 

(iii)          the Outstanding
Principal Amount outstanding hereunder shall not exceed the Maximum Aggregate
Principal Amount; and

 

(iv)          the aggregate
principal amount of all Class A Advances made by any Class A Funding Group
shall not exceed the related Funding Group Limit.

 

Each Class A
Advance by a Class A Funding Group shall be made on a pro rata
basis based on the Class A Funding Group Limit of such Class A Funding Group as
a percentage of the aggregate Class A Funding Group Limits of all Class A
Funding Groups and each Class A Advance by a Non-Conduit Lender in a Class A
Funding Group shall be made on a pro rata basis based on the
Non-Conduit Lender Commitment of such Non-Conduit Lender as a percentage of the
aggregate Non-Conduit Lender Commitments of all Non-Conduit Lenders in such
Class A Funding Group (except as otherwise provided in the proviso to the last
sentence of this Section 2.1(g)). Payments or prepayments of the Class A
Advances may be reborrowed from time to time prior to the Conversion Date as
Additional Class A Advances, but only to finance a portion of the acquisition
cost for acquiring an Additionally Financed Aircraft into the Borrower’s
Portfolio, or to finance the reimbursement of Approved Asset Improvement Costs
with an Improvement Advance, or in a single drawdown on a Payment Date as a
Critical Mass Event Advance, or in a drawdown on a Payment Date as an Increased
Availability Advance, and in each case otherwise subject to the terms and
conditions applicable to such Advances herein.

 

The
obligations of the Class A Funding Groups to fund Advances hereunder are
several and not joint; provided, however, that if a Class A
Funding Group shall fail to fund a Class A Advance pursuant to the terms
hereof, any other Class A Funding Group may, in its sole discretion, fund all
or any portion of such Class A Advance without regard to the pro rata
provisions of this Agreement and without regard to the Class A Funding Group
Limit of such Class A Funding Group or the Non-Conduit Lender Commitment of any
Non-Conduit Lender included in such Class A Funding Group which shall be deemed
adjusted to reflect any such funding without any other act by any Person being
necessary.

subject to the following requirements:

 

(i)            Initial Class B Advances,

Commitment of such Non-Conduit Lender;

 

(iii)          the Outstanding
Principal Amount shall not exceed the Maximum Aggregate Principal Amount; and

a percentage of the aggregate Class B Funding Group Limits of all Class B
Funding Groups and each Class B Advance by a Non-Conduit Lender in a Class B
Funding Group shall be made on a pro rata basis based on the
Non-Conduit Lender Commitment of such Non-Conduit Lender as a percentage of the
aggregate Non-Conduit Lender Commitments of all Non-Conduit Lenders in such
Class B Funding Group (except as otherwise provided in the proviso to the last
sentence of this Section 2.1(h)). Payments or prepayments of the Class B
Advances may be reborrowed from time to time prior to the Conversion Date as
Additional Class B Advances, but only to finance a portion of the acquisition
cost for acquiring an Additionally Financed Aircraft into the Borrower’s
Portfolio, or to finance the reimbursement of Approved Asset Improvement Costs
with an Improvement Advance, or in a single drawdown on a Payment Date as a
Critical Mass Event Advance, or in a drawdown on a Payment Date as an Increased
Availability Advance, and in each case otherwise subject to the terms and
conditions applicable to such Advances herein.

 

The
obligations of the Class B Funding Groups to fund Advances hereunder are
several and not joint; provided, however, that if a Class B
Funding Group shall fail to fund a Class B Advance pursuant to the terms
hereof, any other Class B Funding Group may, in its sole discretion, fund all
or any portion of such Class B Advance without regard to the pro rata
provisions of this Agreement and without regard to the Class B Funding Group
Limit of such Class B Funding Group or the Non-Conduit Lender Commitment of any
Non-Conduit Lender included in such Class B Funding Group which shall be deemed
adjusted to reflect any such funding without any other act by any Person being
necessary.

 

(i) Class C
Advance Limits, etc. Advances pursuant to clauses (c) and (f) above are
subject to the following requirements:

 

59

 

(i)            Initial Class C
Advances, Initial Class B Advances and Initial Class A Advances, and Additional
Class C Advances, Additional Class B Advances and Additional Class A Advances
relating to the same Aircraft (or the same Critical Mass Event Advance or
Increased Availability Advance or Improvement Advance, as the case may be), in

advanced by any Non-Conduit Lender shall not exceed the Non-Conduit Lender
Commitment of such Non-Conduit Lender;

basis based on the Class C Funding Group Limit of such Class C Funding Group as
a percentage of the aggregate Class C Funding Group Limits of all Class C
Funding Groups and each Class C Advance by a Non-Conduit Lender in a Class C
Funding Group shall be made on a pro rata basis based on the
Non-Conduit Lender Commitment of such Non-Conduit Lender as a percentage of the
aggregate Non-Conduit Lender Commitments of all Non-Conduit Lenders in such
Class C Funding Group (except as otherwise provided in the proviso to the last
sentence of this Section 2.1(i)). Payments or prepayments of the Class C
Advances may be reborrowed from time to time prior to the Conversion Date as
Additional Class C Advances, but only to finance a portion of the acquisition
cost for acquiring an Additionally Financed Aircraft into the Borrower’s
Portfolio, or to finance the reimbursement of Approved Asset Improvement Costs
with an Improvement Advance, or in a single drawdown on a Payment Date as a
Critical Mass Event Advance, or in a drawdown on a Payment Date as an Increased
Availability Advance, and in each case otherwise subject to the terms and
conditions applicable to such Advances herein.

 

The
obligations of the Class C Funding Groups to fund Advances hereunder are
several and not joint; provided, however, that if a Class C
Funding Group shall fail to fund a Class C Advance pursuant to the terms
hereof, any other Class C Funding Group may, in its sole discretion, fund all
or any portion of such Class C Advance without regard to the pro rata
provisions of this Agreement and without regard to the Class C Funding Group
Limit of such Class C Funding Group or the Non-Conduit Lender Commitment of any
Non-Conduit Lender included in such Class C Funding Group which shall be deemed
adjusted to reflect any such funding without any other act by any Person being
necessary.

 

(j)            UBSRESI
Agreements re Participant Rights. With respect to the references to UBSRESI’s
funding obligations in the relevant provisions in Section 2.1 above in
the event of a failure of a Participant to honor its funding agreement to
UBSRESI under a Participation Agreement, UBSRESI agrees with the Borrower that
UBSRESI will use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce its rights to
receive funds from the Participant (and agrees to

 

60

 

consult with
the Borrower in good faith as to the progress of its efforts in such
enforcement) (the “Enforcement Efforts”); provided, that at the sole
option of the Borrower, and upon the Borrower’s written request, UBSRESI, in
lieu of complying any further with the Enforcement Efforts, will promptly
assign to AMS AerCap all of its rights to enforce against the Participant such dishonored
funding obligation (and will execute any necessary powers of attorney, and give
other commercially reasonable further assurances to or cooperations with the
assignee, in order for the assignee to receive the full benefit of the
assignment of such rights against the Participant under the Participation
Agreement).

 

SECTION 2.2         Advance Procedures.

 

(a) Initial
Advances. By at least 11:00 a.m., New York time, two (2) Business Days
prior to the Initial Advance Date (or at such later time, on or prior to the
Initial Advance Date, as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may agree),
the Borrower may request Initial Advances hereunder, by giving notice (herein
called an “Initial Advance Request”) to the Administrative Agent and
each Funding Agent. The Initial Advance Request shall be substantially in the
form of Exhibit A and shall include the date and amount of the Initial
Advance, and a borrowing base certification satisfactory to the Funding Agents,
setting forth the information required therein. The Initial Advance shall be
made against, and in connection with the acquisition into the Borrower’s
Portfolio of, an aggregate Adjusted Borrowing Value of Aircraft as specified on
the related Initial Advance Request, allocated among Class A Advances, Class B
Advances and Class C Advances based on the respective applicable Borrowing
Bases at such time (and giving effect to such acquisition in determining the
applicable Borrowing Bases), and shall be allocated pro rata among the Funding Groups based on their respective
Funding Group Limits. The Borrower’s Initial Advance Request shall be
irrevocable unless and to the extent otherwise agreed among the parties in
connection with closing the Initial Advances on the Closing Date.

 

(b) Additional
Advances. During the Additional Advance Commitment Period, the Borrower may
request Additional Advances from time to time hereunder, by giving notice
(herein called an “Additional Advance Request”) to the Administrative
Agent and the Collateral Agent and Account Bank (with a copy to be sent or
delivered separately to each Funding Agent and, if funding through a Holding
Account Bank is to be applicable, to the applicable Holding Account Bank), of
the proposed Additional Advances not later than 11:00 a.m., New York time, three
(3) Business Days prior to the proposed date of such Advances. The Additional
Advance Request shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A and
shall include (i) the date and amount of such Additional Advances, (ii) whether
and to what extent such Additional Advance constitutes an Additional Advance
for the purpose of the Borrower’s directly or indirectly acquiring Additionally
Financed Aircraft, a Critical Mass Event Advance, an Improvement Advance or an
Increased Availability Advance, (iii) whether such Additional Advance will
involve transfers of Advance proceeds initially deposited into the Borrower
Funding Account to either or both of the London Holding Account and/or the Hong
Kong Holding Account pending subsequent release to the Borrower during the
Holding Period (as defined in subsection (c) of Section 2.3 below), and if so
the amount of such transfers to such accounts, (iv) the amount of the proceeds
of any such Advance (A) if constituting proceeds of a Class B Advance, to be
transferred from the Borrower Funding Account for deposit into the Liquidity
Reserve Account,

 

61

 

and (B) if
constituting proceeds of a Class C Advance, to be transferred from the Borrower
Funding Account for deposit into the Class C Reserve Account, and (v) a
borrowing base certification satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, setting
forth the information required therein. Each Additional Advance Request (i)
shall be for an aggregate principal amount of at least $5,000,000 (except that
the final Additional Advance Request preceding the Conversion Date may be for a
lesser amount), (ii) shall be made against, and in connection with (unless
constituting an Improvement Advance, a Critical Mass Event Advance or an
Increased Availability Advance) the anticipated acquisition into the Borrower’s
Portfolio of an aggregate Adjusted Borrowing Value of Aircraft as specified on
the related Additional Advance Request, (iii) shall be allocated among Class A
Advances, Class B Advances and Class C Advances based on the respective
Borrowing Bases at such time (and, in the case of Additionally Financed
Aircraft, based on the respective Borrowing Bases but calculating them giving
effect to and assuming all the proposed Additionally Financed Aircraft
anticipated to be funded through such Advances will be funded on the same date
within the Holding Period, and (iv) shall be allocated pro rata among the Funding Groups based on
their respective Funding Group Limits.

 

(c) Funding
Group Procedures; Monthly Eurodollar Rate Determination.

 

(i)            The UBS Funding
Agent shall promptly send notice of each proposed Advance (and the UBS Funding
Group’s ratable share thereof) to all of the UBS Non-Conduit Lenders
concurrently by telecopier, or electronic mail promptly confirmed by
telecopier, specifying the date of such Advance, the UBS Non-Conduit Lender
Percentage of each UBS Non-Conduit Lender multiplied by the aggregate amount of
the UBS Funding Group’s ratable share of the Advance being requested and
whether the Yield for the Interest Period for such Advance is calculated based
on the Eurodollar Rate or the Alternate Base Rate.

 

(ii)           Each Other Funding
Agent shall promptly send notice of each proposed Advance (and the Other
Funding Group’s ratable share thereof) to all of the Other Non-Conduit Lenders
concurrently by telecopier, or electronic mail promptly confirmed by
telecopier, specifying the date of such Advance, the Other Non-Conduit Lender
Percentage of each Other Non-Conduit Lender multiplied by the aggregate amount
of the Other Funding Group’s ratable share of the Advance being requested and
whether the Yield for the Interest Period for such Advance is calculated based
on the Eurodollar Rate or the Alternate Base Rate.

 

(iii)          If a Conduit Lender
in an Other Funding Group, if ever any, has determined not to make its ratable
share of a proposed Advance (or if there is no Conduit Lender in such Other
Funding Group), the related Other Funding Agent shall promptly send notice of
the proposed Advance (and such Conduit Lender’s ratable share thereof, if
applicable) to all of the related Non-Conduit Lenders in such Other Funding
Group concurrently by telecopier or electronic mail specifying the date of such
Advance, the Other Non-Conduit Lender Percentage of each Other Non-Conduit
Lender multiplied by the aggregate amount of the applicable Other Funding Group’s
ratable share of the Advance being requested, and whether the Yield for the
Interest Period for such Advance is calculated based on the Eurodollar Rate or
the Alternate Base Rate.

 

62

 

(iv)          The Administrative
Agent shall, three (3) Business Day’s before the first day of each full monthly
Interest Period during which the Advances will continue to bear interest based
upon the Eurodollar Rate (that is, on the Determination Date, which is three
Business Days prior to its related Payment Date), determine the rate of
interest for the upcoming one month Interest Period for each Funding Group’s
ratable share of the outstanding Advances, as contemplated in the definition of
Eurodollar Rate. The Administrative Agent shall thereupon promptly notify the
Borrower and each Funding Agent of the Eurodollar Rate it so determines, which
will then constitute the Eurodollar Rate applicable to each Funding Group’s
ratable share of the Advances for the upcoming monthly Interest Period.

 

SECTION 2.3         Funding.

 

(a) Subject to
the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 7.1,
as well as the conditions precedent in Section 7.5 with respect to the
Initial Advance, or the conditions in Section 7.3 and Section 7.5
with respect to an Additional Advance constituting an Improvement Advance, or
the conditions in Section 7.4 and Section 7.5 with respect to an
Additional Advance constituting a Critical Mass Event Advance or an Increased
Availability Advance, as well as (in each case) the limitations set forth in Section
2.1 and Section 2.2, each Funding Agent, based on the respective
fundings made by the applicable Conduit Lender[s] (if any) and/or Non-Conduit
Lenders in its Funding Group, shall, by wire transfer, make the proceeds of
such requested Advance available in the Deutsche Bank “Trust and Securities
Services Account” (following which the Collateral Agent/Account Bank shall immediately
transfer such funds to Borrower Funding Account) in same day funds no later
than 12:30 p.m., New York time, on the proposed date of the Advance; provided,
that with respect to Improvement Advances, the proceeds thereof shall be wire
transferred at the direction of the Borrower to the appropriate account of
AerCap in repayment of the related amounts borrowed under the AerCap Liquidity
Facility, and the proceeds of a portion of the related Class B Advances and
Class C Advances associated with an Improvement Advances, Critical Mass Advance
or Increased Availability Advance may be directed by the Borrower for transfer
from the Borrower Funding Account for deposit into the Liquidity Reserve
Account or Class C Reserve Account, respectively, to increase the balances
therein up to their required funding levels. The Account Bank shall (i) not
release any funds in the Borrower Funding Account to, or at the direction of,
the Borrower unless the Account Bank shall have received written instructions
(which written instructions may be provided by e-mail) to do so from the
Administrative Agent, and also shall have received written directions (which
written directions may be provided by e-mail) from the Borrower of the amounts
to disburse and payment instructions, and (ii) if an Advance is not to be made
on the proposed date for such Advance because any condition precedent with
respect to such Advance has not been satisfied, return to the applicable
Funding Agent, the funds made available in the Borrower Funding Account by such
Person upon receipt of a written request of such Person. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the funding and release procedures applicable to Additional Advances
requested to finance the acquisition of one or more anticipated Additionally
Financed Aircraft, as described on the related Additional Advance Request,
shall be as set forth in subsection (c) of this Section below (including the
provisions in such subsection relevant to satisfaction of the conditions in Section
7.2 and Section 7.5 with respect to any such Additional Advance).

 

63

 

(b)
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) a Non-Conduit Lender shall
not be obligated to make an Advance under this Section 2.3 at any time
in an amount which would exceed such Non-Conduit Lender’s Non-Conduit Lender
Commitment, less the amount of any prior Advances still outstanding made by
such Non-Conduit Lender, and (y) if a Non-Conduit Lender in a Class B Funding
Group or Class C Funding Group has entered into a Participation Agreement
relating to all or any portion of its Non-Conduit Lender Commitment, it shall
not be obligated to the Borrower to fund against such related amount of its
commitment if it does not receives funding in respect of such related amount
from the Participant. Each Non-Conduit Lender’s obligation shall be several,
such that the failure of any Non-Conduit Lender to make available to the
applicable Funding Agent any funds in connection with any Advance shall not
relieve any other Non-Conduit Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to
make funds available on the date of such Advance, but no Non-Conduit Lender
shall be responsible for the failure of any other Non-Conduit Lender to make
funds available in connection with any Advance; provided, however,
that:

 

(i)            if a Class A
Non-Conduit Lender shall fail to make available to the applicable Funding Agent
any funds in connection with any Class A Advance, any other Class A Non-Conduit
Lender in the same Funding Group (or any other Class A Non-Conduit Lender in
any other Funding Group) may, in its sole discretion, make available to the
Administrative Agent any such funds without regard to the pro  rata
provisions of this Agreement and without regard to the Class A Non-Conduit
Lender Commitment of such Non-Conduit Lender, each of which shall be deemed to
be adjusted to reflect such Advance without any act of any Person being
necessary therefor;

 

(ii)           if a Class B
Non-Conduit Lender shall fail to make available to the applicable Funding Agent
any funds in connection with any Class B Advance, any other Class B Non-Conduit
Lender in the same Funding Group (or any other Class B Non-Conduit Lender in
any other Funding Group) may, in its sole discretion, make available to the
Administrative Agent any such funds without regard to the pro  rata
provisions of this Agreement and without regard to the Class B Non-Conduit
Lender Commitment of such Non-Conduit Lender, each of which shall be deemed to
be adjusted to reflect such Advance without any act of any Person being
necessary therefor; and;

 

(iii)          if a Class C
Non-Conduit Lender shall fail to make available to the applicable Funding Agent
any funds in connection with any Class C Advance, any other Class C Non-Conduit
Lender in the same Funding Group (or any other Class C Non-Conduit Lender in
any other Funding Group) may, in its sole discretion, make available to the
Administrative Agent any such funds without regard to the pro  rata
provisions of this Agreement and without regard to the Class C Non-Conduit
Lender Commitment of such Non-Conduit Lender, each of which shall be deemed to
be adjusted to reflect such Advance without any act of any Person being
necessary therefor.

 

(c)           Notwithstanding the
provisions of subsection (a) of this Section 2.3 above, the following funding
and funds release procedures shall apply to Additional Advances requested to
finance the Borrower’s acquisition, directly or indirectly, of one or more
anticipated Additionally Financed Aircraft, as described on the related
Additional Advance Request (and references

 

64

 

below to such
acquisitions, shall be deemed to refer to the Borrower indirect acquisition
through one or more Borrower Subsidiaries of such Aircraft).

 

(i)            The Borrower’s
Additional Advance Request, in addition to containing the other information
required for Additional Advance Requests described in Section 2.2(b), (A) shall
identify the amount of Advance proceeds initially deposited into the Borrower
Funding Account to be transferred to the London Holding Account and/or the Hong
Kong Holding Account (or if no such funds are to be so transferred, shall
specifically so indicate), and (B) shall identify, with the greatest
specificity feasible, the date or dates (any of which shall be a Business Day),
not less than three, and not more than eight, Business Days from the date that
the Borrower delivers such Advance Request (such period, the “Holding Period”),
that the Borrower anticipates that the conditions precedent to funding against
each proposed Additionally Financed Aircraft set forth in Sections 7.2
and 7.5 shall be satisfied as to each such requested Aircraft.

 

(ii)           Based upon such
Additional Advance Request containing the information set forth in clause (i)
of this subsection (c) (and the borrowing base certification referred to in Section
2.2(b) above), and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.1
and Section 2.2, each Funding Agent, based on the respective fundings
made by the applicable Conduit Lender[s] (if any) and/or Non-Conduit Lenders in
its Funding Group, shall by wire transfer, make the entire proceeds of such
requested Additional Advance available in the Deutsche Bank “Trust and
Securities Services Account” (following which the Collateral Agent/Account Bank
shall immediately transfer such funds to the Borrower Funding Account) in same
day funds no later than 12:30 p.m., New York time, on the third Business Day
following delivery of the related Additional Advance request. The Funding Agent
(through the receipt of funds from the related Lenders) is to make such
proceeds available in the Borrower Funding Account notwithstanding that the
funding conditions set forth in Section 7.2 and 7.5 for
acquisition of an Additionally Financed Aircraft shall not yet have been
satisfied in respect of all or any portion of the anticipated Additionally
Financed Aircraft. The respective amounts so advanced by the Lenders through
the related Funding Agent shall be based on the applicable Borrowing Bases
certified to by the Borrower as part of the related Additional Advance Request
(and assuming that all proposed Aircraft become Funded Aircraft by the end of
the Holding Period). Such Advances by the Lenders shall constitute Advances for
all purposes hereunder on and as of the date made, notwithstanding that any one
or more of the proposed Aircraft may not become Additionally Financed Aircraft
during the Holding Period.

 

(iii)          Following receipt
of such Advances in the Borrower Funding Account, if the related Advance
Request has so specified, the Account Bank shall transfer on the date of
receipt, and without further direction or authorization from the Borrower, any
Funding Agent or the Administrative Agent required, the specified amount of
funds to the London Holding Account and/or the Hong Kong Holding Account, as
applicable.

 

(iv)          On any Business Day
during the Holding Period, and while funds from the above-described Advances
remain within the Borrower Funding Account, London

 

65

 

Holding
Account or Hong Kong Holding Account, as the case may be, the Borrower may
request a release of funds from such account to it or at its direction, for the
purpose of financing a portion of the acquisition cost of one or more of the
Aircraft described in the Additional Advance Request. The Borrower shall make
such request by giving notice (herein called a “Holding Period Release
Request”) to the Administrative Agent for the requested release of funds
not later than 10:00 a.m., New York time, on the requested date of funding,
which (A) shall be a Business Day, and (B) shall be a day within the Holding
Period. The Holding Period Release Request (1) shall include the date and
amount of such desired release of funds, (2) shall specify the applicable
account or accounts from which such release shall occur, (3) shall specify wire
transfer instructions for the delivery of released funds to their intended
recipient, (4) shall specify a time for such release to occur (or otherwise
indicate a manner for communicating such time of release mutually acceptable to
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent), subject to the limitations of
clause (v) immediately below, (5) shall indicate that such release is for the
purpose of funding a direct acquisition of one or more of the Additionally
Financed Aircraft identified in the related Additional Advance Request (and
specifically identify the Aircraft to be funded with each requested release),
and (6) shall contain a borrowing base certification satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent, setting forth the information required therein. Each
Holding Period Release Request shall be for an aggregate amount of at least
$1,000,000, but not exceeding the proceeds of the related Advances held on
deposit in the applicable account.

 

(v)           Assuming
compliance with the foregoing notice procedures and the satisfaction of each of
the conditions precedent to an Additional Advance for the purpose of acquiring
an Additionally Financed Aircraft under Section 7.2 and the conditions
set forth in Section 7.5, the Administrative Agent shall (A) in the case
of transfers from the Borrower Funding Account, instruct the Account Bank to
transfer the requested funds to the specified recipient account, at the time
the Borrower has requested that such transfer be made pursuant to the Holding
Period Release Request (but in no event later than 4 p.m., New York time, on
the requested date), and the Account Bank hereby agrees to comply with such
instruction; provided, however,
that each of the parties hereto understands and agrees that in the event that
the Administrative Agent does not provide written notification to the
Collateral Agent and Account Bank by 2 p.m. New York time stating that no such
transfer instructions shall be delivered on that date, any funds in the
Borrower Funding Account may remain uninvested until the next succeeding
Business Day, and (B) in the case of transfers from the London Holding Account
or the Hong Kong Holding Account, instruct the London Account Bank and/or the
Hong Kong Account Bank, consistent with its authorizations to do so in the
related Holding Account Control Agreements, to transfer the requested funds to
the specified recipient account, at the time the Borrower has requested that
such transfer be made pursuant to the Holding Period Release Request (but in no
event later than the time specified in the applicable Holding Account Control
Agreement on the requested date).

 

(vi)          The Borrower may at
any time and, if the Borrower fails to do so after the Holding Period ends, the
Administrative Agent shall, direct the London Account Bank and/or Hong Kong
Account Bank to transfer funds remaining on deposit in the London

 

66

 

Holding
Account and/or the Hong Kong Holding Account back to the Borrower Funding
Account, and direct the Account Bank to transfer (following receipt of the
funds transfers referred to above into the Borrower Funding Account, if
applicable) all funds remaining in the Borrower Funding Account after the
Holding Period ends to the applicable Funding Agent for the account of the each
Lender in repayment of the related Advances not invested in an Aircraft
acquisition, pro  rata based on the respective proportionate
amount of such Advances initially funded. Any outstanding accrued interest on
such repaid Advances, together with breakage amounts, if any, that may be owing
in respect of such repayment pursuant to Section 6.4, will be payable by
the Borrower on the next Payment Date following the calendar month in which
such repayment occurs, pursuant to the Flow of Funds, and need not be paid by
the Borrower concurrently with such repayments

 

(vii)         Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this subsection (c), the Borrower will not be permitted
to use the funding mechanisms contemplated in the London Holding Account and
the Hong Kong Holding Account until the applicable account has been established
and made subject to a Holding Account Control Agreement, and until the Borrower
has procured a legal opinion, addressed to the Administrative Agent and the
Collateral Agent and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent, to the effect that the Collateral Agent has, pursuant to
the Holding Account Control Agreement or otherwise, a valid, perfected (to the extent
such concept applies under applicable law governing the Holding Account Control
Agreement), enforceable first priority security interest in, pledge of, lien on
or charge over, the London Holding Account or Hong Kong Holding Account, as
applicable.

 

SECTION 2.4         Representation and Warranty. Each
request for an Advance pursuant to Section 2.2 or delivery of a Holding
Period Release Request shall automatically constitute a representation and
warranty by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, the Funding Agents and
the Lenders that, on the date of such Advance or the date of release of funds
contemplated in the Holding Period Release Request, and after giving effect to
such Advance or release and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
in the making of such Advance or release, (a) the representations and
warranties contained in Article IX will be true and correct as of the
date of such Advance and such release, as applicable, as though made on such
date (except, that any such representations or warranties expressly stated by
their terms to be made only at or as of one or more particular dates or times,
shall be made only at or as of such specified dates or times and are not so
automatically repeated), (b) no Default, Event of Default, Early Amortization
Event, or event that would constitute an Event of Default or Early Amortization
Event but for the passage of time or the giving of notice or both has occurred
and is continuing or will result from the making of such Advance and such
release, as applicable, and (c) after giving effect to such requested Advance
and such release, as applicable:

 

(i)            the Outstanding
Class A Principal Amount hereunder shall not exceed the Maximum Class A
Principal Amount;

 

(ii)           the Outstanding
Class B Principal Amount hereunder shall not exceed the Maximum Class B
Principal Amount;

 

67

 

(iii)          the Outstanding
Class C Principal Amount hereunder shall not exceed the Maximum Class C
Principal Amount; and

 

(iv)          the Outstanding Principal
Amount hereunder shall not exceed the Maximum Aggregate Principal Amount.

 

SECTION 2.5         Notes. (a) The Borrower shall,
on the Initial Advance Date, execute and deliver a Note to each Funding Agent
if and to the extent requested to do so by such Funding Agent. The Borrower
shall promptly execute and deliver a Note to each new Funding Agent that
requests a Note after the Closing Date.

 

(b) The Advances and Yield thereon related to a Funding Group shall at
all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 15.1), to the
extent a Note has been requested by a Funding Agent, be represented by such
Note and/or a replacement Note therefor, payable to the order of the applicable
requesting Funding Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders in such Funding Agent’s
Funding Group. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes each Funding Agent
holding a Note to make (or cause to be made) appropriate notations on the grid
attached to its Note (or on any continuation of such grid, or at any Lender’s
option, in its records), which notations, if made, shall evidence, inter
alia, the date of, the outstanding principal of, and the Lender Rate and
Interest Period applicable to, the Advances evidenced thereby. Such notations
shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error; provided,
however, that the failure to make any such notations shall not limit or
otherwise affect any Obligations of the Borrower. Each Lender shall maintain in
accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness
of the Borrower to such bank resulting from each Loan of such Lender from time
to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to
such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

 

(c) With respect to each Funding Agent that shall not have requested a
Note, the Funding Agent shall maintain a register pursuant to Section 15.5(a)
and a subaccount therein for each Lender in its related Funding Group, in which
shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Advance made by such Lenders
hereunder, and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any
principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the
Borrower to such Lender hereunder and (iii) both the amount of any sum received
by the Funding Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each such Lender’s share
thereof.

 

(d) The entries made in such register and the accounts of each such
Lender maintained pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section 2.5 shall, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, be prima  facie evidence of
the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided,
however, that the failure of any such Lender or its Funding Agent to
maintain the register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in
any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable
interest) the Advances actually made to the Borrower by such Lender in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 3.1         Yield.

 

(a) Payment.
The Borrower hereby promises to pay Yield on the unpaid principal amount of
each Advance (or each portion thereof) for the period commencing on the date of
such Advance until the date such Advance is paid in full.

 

(b) Maximum
Yield. No provision of this Agreement or any Note shall require the payment
or permit the collection of Yield in excess of the maximum permitted by
applicable law.

 

SECTION 3.2         Yield Payment Dates. Yield
accrued on (i) each Advance shall be payable on each Payment Date and (ii) the
amount of Advances being repaid or prepaid on any other Settlement Date shall
be paid on such Settlement Date.

 

SECTION 3.3         [Reserved].

 

SECTION 3.4         Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay
to the Administrative Agent certain Fees in the amounts and on the dates set
forth in the letter agreement between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower
dated as of April 26, 2006 (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented
or otherwise modified pursuant to its terms, the “Fee Letter”).

 

SECTION 3.5         Computation of Yield. All Yield
hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that
Yield computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate shall be computed on the
basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case
shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day
but excluding the last day). The applicable Yield with respect to each Funding
Group shall be determined by the Funding Agent for such Funding Group in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and such determination shall
be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

ARTICLE IV

 

REPAYMENTS, PREPAYMENTS AND PAYMENTS

 

SECTION 4.1         Required Principal Repayments.

 

(a) Payment
Dates. On each Payment Date occurring on or after the Conversion Date, the
Borrower shall be required to make the principal payments required under the
Flow of Funds (including as a result of the allocation and application of
Collections derived from the sale or other disposition, voluntary or
involuntary, of an Aircraft or Aircraft Owning Entity) in reduction of the
aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount to the extent of funds available to make
such payments pursuant to the Flow of Funds.

 

69

 

(b) Facility
Termination Date. The aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount shall be due
and payable in full on the Facility Termination Date.

 

SECTION 4.2         Principal Prepayments.

 

(a) Voluntary
Prepayment. The Borrower may voluntarily prepay the outstanding principal
amount of the Advances, in whole or in part; provided, however,
that:

 

(i)            all such voluntary
prepayments shall require at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written
notice to the Administrative Agent and each Funding Agent;

 

(ii)           all such voluntary
partial prepayments shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 (unless such
payment results in a repayment in full); and

 

(iii)          all such voluntary
prepayments shall be paid (x) prior to the Conversion Date, pro rata to the Lenders based upon the
respective outstanding Advances funded by such Lenders and (y) on and after the
Conversion Date, into the Collection Account and applied in accordance with the
terms of the Flow of Funds on the next Payment Date.

 

(b) Mandatory
Prepayments. Upon the sale, transfer or other disposition of any Aircraft,
or any Equity Interest in any Aircraft Owning Entity or Owner Participant to a
Person that is not a Borrower Group Member, by the Borrower or any Borrower
Subsidiary (including, without limitation, in connection with the consummation
of any ABS Transaction or any other refinancing by the Borrower), the Borrower
shall forthwith deposit into the Collection Account an amount equal to the net
proceeds of such sale or disposition (together with all amounts maintained in
the Maintenance Reserves Account and the Security Deposit Account attributable
to such Aircraft or Equity Interest, that are not payable to the applicable
Lessee or seller of such Aircraft or Equity Interest), which amounts shall be
applied in accordance with the Flow of Funds hereof on the next Payment Date
after such sale, transfer or other disposition. Upon the occurrence of an Event
of Loss with respect to any Aircraft, the Borrower shall, on the first Payment
Date following the receipt of any insurance, condemnation or other proceeds
(including any Lessee or other third party payments and all amounts maintained
in the Maintenance Reserves Account and the Security Deposit Account
attributable to such Aircraft that are not required to be returned to the
Lessee in accordance with the terms of the Lease) in respect of such Event of
Loss, deposit into the Collection Account an amount equal to the then Allocable
Advance Amount of such Aircraft (determined as of the date of such Event of
Loss), which amount shall be applied in accordance with the Flow of Funds on
the next Payment Date after such deposit.

 

(c) Breakage.
Each prepayment under this Section 4.2 shall be subject to the payment
of any breakage cost amounts required by Section 6.4 resulting from such
prepayment; provided that there shall be no breakage costs for
prepayments occurring on any Payment Date.

 

SECTION 4.3         Payments Generally. Subject to,
and in accordance with, the provisions of this Agreement, all payments of
principal of, or Yield on, the Advances shall be made (whether pursuant to the
Flow of Funds or otherwise) no later than 2:00 p.m., New York time, on

 

70

 

the day when
due in lawful money of the United States of America in same day funds to the
applicable Funding Agent, to one or more accounts designated by the UBS Funding
Agent, in the case of the UBS Funding Group, or to one or more accounts
designated by an Other Funding Agent, in the case of an Other Funding Group, or
such other account as the applicable Funding Agent shall designate in writing
to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent not fewer than three (3) Business
Days prior to the intended effective date of any such designation. Funds
received by the applicable Funding Agent after 2:00 p.m., New York time, on the
date when due, will be deemed to have been received by the applicable Funding
Agent on its next following Business Day. It is understood that payments made
by the Borrower to a Funding Agent or the Administrative Agent in accordance
with this Agreement constitute, when made and received, a discharge and
satisfaction of the Borrower’s corresponding obligation to the applicable
Lender hereunder.

 

SECTION 4.4         Sharing of Set-Off. If any Class
A Lender, Class B Lender or Class C Lender shall, by exercising any right of
setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain, at any time, payment in respect of
any principal of, or Yield on, any of its Advances or other Obligations
resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate
amount of its Advances and accrued Yield thereon or other Obligations greater
than it would have been entitled to receive as provided herein, then such
Lender shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent and each Funding Agent of such
fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Class A
Advances, Class B Advances or Class C Advances, respectively, and such other
Obligations of the other Class A Lenders, Class B Lenders or Class C Lenders,
respectively, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the
benefit of all such payments shall be shared by such Lenders, respectively,
ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued
interest on their respective Class A Advances, Class B Advances or Class C
Advances and other amounts owing them as provided herein, provided that:

 

(i)            if any such
participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise
thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase
price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

 

(ii)           the provisions of
this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the
Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement
or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of
or sale of a participation in any of its Advances to any assignee or
participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which
the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).

 

The Borrower
consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so
under any applicable Requirement of Law, that any Lender acquiring a
participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the
Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation
as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount
of such participation. If under applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or any
similar law any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff or
counterclaim to which this paragraph applies, such Lender shall, to the extent
practicable, exercise its rights in respect of

 

71

 

such secured
claim in a manner consistent with the rights to which the Lender is entitled
under this paragraph to share in the benefits of the recovery of such secured
claim.

SECTION 5.1         Establishment of Reserve Accounts.

 

(a) Liquidity
Reserve; Class C Reserve.

 

(i)            On or prior to the
Initial Advance Date, the Borrower shall have opened an account (number 51949)
in the name of the Borrower maintained with the Account Bank (the “Liquidity
Reserve Account”) and deposited into such Liquidity Reserve Account an
amount at least equal to the Initial Required Liquidity Reserve Amount as of
such Initial Advance Date (and after giving effect to the Initial Advances to
be funded on such date). Such amounts may be funded with the proceeds of Class
B Advances.

 

(ii)           On or prior to the
Initial Advance Date, the Borrower shall have opened an account (number 51947)
in the name of the Borrower maintained with the Account Bank (the “Class C
Reserve Account”) and deposited into such Class C Reserve Account an amount
at least equal to the Initial Required Class C Reserve Amount as of such
Initial Advance Date (and after giving effect to the Initial Advances to be
funded on such date). Such amounts may be funded with the proceeds of Class C
Advances.

 

(b) Maintenance
of Reserves. The Collateral Agent shall take all actions as shall be
reasonably necessary to preserve, protect, maintain or enforce its rights with
respect to the Liquidity Reserve Account and the Class C Reserve Account.

 

(c) Provisions
Applicable to Reserve Accounts. The following provisions will apply to the
Liquidity Reserve Account and the Class C Reserve Account established pursuant
to Section 5.1(a):

 

(i)            The Liquidity
Reserve Account and the Class C Reserve Account shall each be subject to the
control provisions of the Security Trust Agreement, and neither the Borrower
nor any Affiliate, agent, employee or officer of the Borrower shall have any
right to withdraw any amount from such Liquidity Reserve Account or Class C
Reserve Account.

 

(ii)           The taxpayer
identification number associated with the Liquidity Reserve Account and the
Class C Reserve Account shall be that of the Borrower and the Borrower will
report for federal, state and local income tax purposes the income, if any,
earned on funds in the Liquidity Reserve Account or the Class C Reserve
Account.

 

(iii)          All funds on
deposit in the Liquidity Reserve Account or the Class C Reserve Account shall
be invested in Eligible Investments as specified by the Borrower in writing to
the Account Bank from time to time; provided, that if the

 

72

 

Borrower shall
fail to specify such Eligible Investments in a timely manner, the Collateral
Agent, at the direction of the Administrative Agent, may specify such Eligible
Investments. All investments of funds on deposit in the Liquidity Reserve
Account or the Class C Reserve Account shall mature, or may be sold or
withdrawn without loss, not later than the Business Day preceding the next
Payment Date. Income earned on funds deposited to the Liquidity Reserve Account
or the Class C Reserve Account, if any, shall be transferred by the Account
Bank to the Collection Account on the Business Day prior to each Payment Date
for distribution pursuant to the Flow of Funds.

 

(iv)          Each of the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent hereby agree and acknowledge, notwithstanding the
agreements of the Collateral Agent described in this Section 5.1(c),
that the Collateral Agent shall retain exclusive dominion and control of the
Liquidity Reserve Account and the Class C Reserve Account.

 

(d) Liquidity
Reserve Draws. (i) To the extent that Available Collections on deposit in
the Collection Account on any Payment Date shall be insufficient to pay any of
the amounts set forth immediately below which are due or payable on such
Payment Date in accordance with the Flow of Funds (the amount by which such
funds shall be so insufficient is herein referred to as an “Insufficiency”),
the Borrower or, if the Borrower fails to do so, the Collateral Agent (at the
written direction of the Administrative Agent), shall make a draw upon the
Liquidity Reserve Account in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount
then available to be drawn under the Liquidity Reserve Account and (ii) the
applicable Insufficiency. If the Borrower has made such draw, it shall deposit
the proceeds thereof into the Collection Account and (whether the Borrower or
the Collateral Agent has made such draw) the Collateral Agent shall apply, to the
extent possible, the proceeds of such draw to the amounts set forth below which
shall be due or payable on such Payment Date but are not as a result of the
Insufficiency being otherwise paid, in the order of priority set forth below:

 

(A) to the Collateral Agent in payment in full of all accrued
Collateral Agent Fees and Expenses;

 

(B) pro rata (1) to the counterparties on any Hedge Agreements for the
hedge payments due from the Borrower thereunder (other than termination
payments), if any, and (2) ratably to each Class A Funding Agent, any Yield due
under this Agreement in respect of outstanding Class A Advances funded by such
Class A Funding Agent’s Class A Funding Group (it being agreed that each Class
A Funding Agent shall distribute any such Yield received to the Lenders in its
Funding Group on a pro rata basis based upon the outstanding principal amount
of Advances funded by such Lenders);

 

(C) pro rata, (1) to each Class A Funding Agent in respect of
outstanding Class A Advances funded by such Funding Agent’s Funding Group, in
the amount of the Class A Borrowing Base Deficiency on such Payment Date (it
being agreed that each Class A Funding Agent shall distribute any such amount
received to the Lenders in its Funding Group on a pro rata basis based upon the
outstanding principal amount of Advances funded by such Lenders), and (2) to
the counterparties on any Hedge Agreements for the hedge termination

 

73

 

payments due
from the Borrower thereunder (unless a default by the non-Borrower counterparty
has caused the early termination);

 

(D) ratably to each Class B Funding Agent, any Yield (other than Yield
accrued at the Default Rate to the extent in excess of the Yield that would
otherwise be payable but for the occurrence and continuance of an Event of
Default) due under this Agreement in respect of outstanding Class B Advances
funded by such Funding Agent’s Funding Group (it being agreed that each Class B
Funding Agent shall distribute any such Yield received to the Lenders in its
Funding Group on a pro rata basis based upon the outstanding principal amount
of Advances funded by such Lenders); and

 

(E) ratably to each Class B Funding Agent in respect of outstanding
Class B Advances funded by such Funding Agent’s Funding Group, in the amount of
the Class B Borrowing Base Deficiency on such Payment Date (it being agreed
that each Class B Funding Agent shall distribute any such amount received to
the Lenders in its Funding Group on a pro rata basis based upon the outstanding
principal amount of Advances funded by such Lenders).

 

(ii)           Upon the occurrence
of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent (at the direction of the
Administrative Agent) shall promptly and, if the Collateral Agent fails to do
so, the Administrative Agent may, draw upon the Liquidity Reserve Account in
full and immediately deposit into the Collection Account for distribution
pursuant to the Flow of Funds on the next Payment Date, an amount equal to the
proceeds of such draw minus a holdback amount, if any, specified by the
Administrative Agent. To the extent that an Insufficiency shall exist on any
Payment Date after the initial holdback (if any) described above, the
Collateral Agent (at the direction of the Administrative Agent) shall make a withdrawal
from the remaining funds in the Liquidity Reserve Account in an amount equal to
the lesser of (i) the amount then available to be withdrawn from the Liquidity
Reserve Account and (ii) the amount which, if treated as Available Collections
and applied pursuant to the Flow of Funds on such Payment Date, would eliminate
the applicable Insufficiency, and shall so apply, to the extent possible, the
funds so withdrawn.

 

(iii)          To the extent that
the Liquidity Reserve as of any Payment Date prior to the occurrence of an
Event of Default (and after giving effect to all allocations under the Flow of
Funds and other transactions, if any, to occur on such Payment Date) will
exceed the Required Liquidity Reserve Amount, such excess may be released and
applied as part of the Available Collections on such Payment Date as set forth
in the Flow of Funds.

 

(e) Class C
Reserve Draws. (i) To the extent that Available Collections on deposit in
the Collection Account on any Payment Date shall be insufficient to pay any of
the amounts set forth immediately below which are due or payable on such
Payment Date in accordance with the Flow of Funds (the amount by which such
funds shall be so insufficient is herein referred to as a “Class C
Insufficiency”), the Borrower or, if the Borrower fails to do so, the
Collateral Agent (at the written direction of the Administrative Agent), shall
make a draw upon the Class C Reserve

 

74

 

Account in an
amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount then available to be drawn under
the Class C Reserve Account and (ii) the applicable Class C Insufficiency. If
the Borrower has made such draw, it shall deposit the proceeds thereof into the
Collection Account and (whether the Borrower or the Collateral Agent has made
such draw) the Collateral Agent shall apply, to the extent possible, the
proceeds of such draw to the amounts set forth below which shall be due or
payable on such Payment Date but are not as a result of the Class C
Insufficiency being otherwise paid, in the order of priority set forth below:

 

(A) ratably to each Class C Funding Agent, any Yield (other than Yield
accrued at the Default Rate to the extent in excess of the Yield that would
otherwise be payable but for the occurrence and continuance of an Event of
Default) due under this Agreement in respect of outstanding Class C Advances
funded by such Funding Agent’s Funding Group (it being agreed that each Class C
Funding Agent shall distribute any such Yield received to the Lenders in its Funding
Group on a pro rata basis based upon the outstanding principal amount of
Advances funded by such Lenders); and

 

(B) ratably to each Class C Funding Agent in respect of outstanding
Class C Advances funded by such Funding Agent’s Funding Group, in the amount of
the Class C Borrowing Base Deficiency on such Payment Date (it being agreed
that each Class C Funding Agent shall distribute any such amount received to
the Lenders in its Funding Group on a pro rata basis based upon the outstanding
principal amount of Advances funded by such Lenders).

 

(ii)           Upon the occurrence
of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent (at the direction of the
Administrative Agent) shall promptly and, if the Collateral Agent fails to do
so, the Administrative Agent may, draw upon the Class C Reserve Account in full
and immediately deposit into the Collection Account for distribution pursuant
to the Flow of Funds on the next Payment Date, but solely for the purpose of
paying (A) Class C Insufficiency in respect of Yield, if any, and (B) otherwise
Class C Advances outstanding, an amount equal to the proceeds of such draw
minus a holdback amount, if any, specified by the Administrative Agent. To the
extent that a Class C Insufficiency in respect of Yield shall exist on any
Payment Date following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, the Collateral Agent (at the written direction of the Administrative
Agent) shall make a withdrawal from the remaining funds in the Class C Reserve
Account in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount then available to be
withdrawn from the Class C Reserve Account and (ii) the amount which, if
treated as Available Collections and applied pursuant to the Flow of Funds on
such Payment Date, would eliminate the applicable Class C Insufficiency in
respect of Yield, and all or a portion of any remaining unapplied amounts in
the Class C Reserve Account may, at the written direction of the Administrative
Agent, also be directed to be applied to the repayment of outstanding Class C
Advances.

 

(f) To the
extent that the Class C Reserve as of any Payment Date prior to the occurrence
of an Event of Default (and after giving effect to all allocations under the
Flow of Funds and other transactions, if any, to occur on such Payment Date)
will exceed the Required Class C

 

75

 

Reserve
Amount, such excess may be released and applied as part of the Available
Collections on such Payment Date as set forth in the Flow of Funds.

 

ARTICLE VI

 

INCREASED COSTS, ETC.

 

SECTION 6.1         Illegality. Notwithstanding any
other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of
Law or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for
any Lender to make or maintain Advances as contemplated by this Agreement based
upon the Eurodollar Rate (“Eurodollar Rate Advances”), such Lender shall
give notice thereof to the Administrative Agent, the applicable Funding Agent
and the Borrower describing the relevant provisions of such Requirement of Law,
following which (a) the Commitment of a Non-Conduit Lender hereunder to make
Eurodollar Rate Advances, and the agreement of any Lender to continue
Eurodollar Rate Advances as such, as applicable, shall forthwith be cancelled
and (b) such Lender’s Advances then outstanding as Eurodollar Rate Advances, if
any, shall accrue Yield at the Alternate Base Rate (i) from the next succeeding
Payment Date or (ii) on any earlier date as required by law. If any such
conversion of any Eurodollar Rate Advance occurs on a day that is not a Payment
Date, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be
required pursuant to Section 6.4.

 

SECTION 6.2         Increased Costs.

 

(a) If (i)
there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender or any of its Affiliates,
assignees or participants (and any further assignees or participants thereof)
or any Person providing such Lender with a liquidity or credit enhancement
arrangement (each of the foregoing an “Affected Party”) of agreeing to
make or making, funding or maintaining any Advance hereunder or (ii) any
reduction in any amount receivable in respect thereof or otherwise under this
Agreement, and such increased cost or reduced amount receivable is due to
either:

 

(x)            the introduction of
or any change (including, without limitation, any change by way of imposition
or increase of reserve requirements) in or in the interpretation of any law,
regulation or accounting principle after the Closing Date (other than in
respect of Taxes and other amounts addressed by Section 6.3); or

 

(y)           the compliance with
any guideline or request from any central bank or other Government Entity
(whether or not having the force of law),

 

then the
Borrower shall from time to time, on the first Payment Date occurring at least
five (5) Business Days after the Borrower’s receipt of written demand by such
Affected Party, pay such Affected Party additional amounts sufficient to
compensate such Affected Party for such increased cost or reduced amount
receivable.

 

(b) If any
Affected Party shall have reasonably determined that (i) the applicability of
any law, rule, regulation or guideline adopted after the Closing Date, or the
initial implementation after the Closing Date of any such law, rule, regulation
or guideline adopted but

 

76

 

not initially
implemented prior to the Closing Date, pursuant to or arising out of (A) the
July 1988 paper of the Basel Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory
Practices entitled “International Convergence of Capital Measurement and
Capital Standards,” or (B) the proposal for New Basel Capital Accord issued by
the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (as revised from time to time, the “New
Accord”), or (ii) the adoption of any other law, rule, regulation or
guideline after the Closing Date regarding capital adequacy, or the initial
implementation after the Closing Date of any such law, rule, regulation or
guideline adopted but not initially implemented prior to the Closing Date, and
in either case affecting such Affected Party (including, but not limited to,
any rule to be so adopted or so implemented with respect to recourse,
residuals, liquidity commitments or direct credit substitutes, referred to
hereinafter as the “New Rules”), or (iii) any change arising in the
foregoing or in the interpretation or administration of any of the foregoing by
any Government Entity, central bank or comparable agency charged with the
interpretation or administration thereof, or (iv) compliance by such Affected
Party (or any lending office of such Affected Party), or any holding company
for such Affected Party which is subject to any of the capital requirements
described above, with any request or directive of general application issued
regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
Government Entity, central bank or comparable agency has or would have the
effect of reducing the rate of return on such Affected Party’s capital or on
the capital of any such holding company as a direct consequence of such
Affected Party’s obligations hereunder or arising in connection herewith to a
level below that which such Affected Party or any such holding company could
have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into
consideration such Affected Party’s policies and the policies of such holding
company with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Affected
Party to be material, then from time to time such Affected Party may request
the Borrower to pay to such Affected Party such additional amounts as will
compensate such Affected Party or any such holding company for any such
reduction suffered.

 

(c) If as a
result of any event or circumstance similar to those described in Section
6.2(a) or Section 6.2(b), any Affected Party is required to
compensate a bank or other financial institution providing liquidity support,
credit enhancement or other similar support to such Affected Party (whether
directly or through a participation) with respect to amounts similar to those described
in Section 6.2(a) or Section 6.2(b) in connection with this
Agreement or the funding or maintenance of Advances hereunder, then within ten
days after demand by such Affected Party, the Borrower shall pay to such
Affected Party such additional amount or amounts as may be necessary to
reimburse such Affected Party for any amounts paid by it. The Borrower
acknowledges to each Lender that such Lender is providing no assurance that the
committed liquidity support provided with respect to this Agreement will be
assigned a zero percent credit-conversion factor under risk-based capital
guidelines adopted by applicable bank regulatory authorities in response to the
framework therefor announced in July, 1988 by the Basel Committee on Banking
Regulations and Supervisory Practices or in response to the New Accord or under
the New Rules. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amount shall be payable under
this subsection (c) except to the extent the affected bank or other financial
institution providing the aforementioned support is a party to this Agreement
as a Lender and is accordingly subject to the same provisions and restrictions
applicable herein to a Lender party hereto (including without limitation, the
provisions of Sections 6.2, 6.5 and 6.6 with respect to any
claims made under this subsection (c).

 

77

 

(d) Any
failure or delay on the part of any Affected Party to demand compensation
pursuant to clause (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 6.2
shall not constitute a waiver of such Affected Party’s right to demand such
compensation; provided, that the Borrower shall not be required to
compensate an Affected Party pursuant to such clauses of this Section 6.2
for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 120 days
prior to the date that such Affected Party notifies the Borrower of the event
or events giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such
Affected Party’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if such
event or events have a retroactive effect, then the 120 day period referred to
above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

 

(e) The
Borrower shall pay to any Lender, so long as such Lender shall be required
under regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System to
maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or
including Eurocurrency Liabilities, additional Yield on the unpaid Eurodollar
Rate Advances of such Lender during each Interest Period, for such Interest
Period, at a rate per annum equal, at all times during such Interest Period, to
the remainder obtained by subtracting (i) the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest
Period from (ii) the rate obtained by dividing such Eurodollar Rate referred to
in clause (i) above by that percentage equal to 100% minus the
Eurodollar Rate Reserve Percentage of such Lender for such Interest Period,
payable on each date on which Yield is payable on such Advances. Such
additional Yield shall be determined by such Lender and notice thereof
(accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for the amount being
claimed) given to the Borrower through the applicable Funding Agent within
thirty (30) days after any Yield payment is made with respect to which such additional
Yield is requested. Such written statement shall, in the absence of manifest
error, be conclusive and binding for all purposes.

 

SECTION 6.3         Taxes.

 

(a) All
payments made by the Borrower under this Agreement shall be made free and clear
of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or
future Taxes now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed
by any Government Entity, excluding income, gross receipts, franchise, net
worth, doing business and similar Taxes imposed on, respectively, the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Funding Agent or any Lender as
a result of a present or former connection between, respectively, the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, such Funding Agent or such Lender
and the jurisdiction of the Government Entity imposing such tax or any
political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any
such connection arising solely from the respective Administrative Agent,
Collateral Agent, Funding Agent or Lender having executed, delivered or
performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this
Agreement). If any such non-excluded Taxes (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) are
required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent,
the Collateral Agent, any Funding Agent or any Lender hereunder, respectively
(each a “Section 6.3 Indemnitee”), the amounts so payable to such
Section 6.3 Indemnitee shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to
such respective Section 6.3 Indemnitee (after payment of all Non-Excluded
Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in
the amounts specified in or pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however,
that the Borrower shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to
any Section 6.3 Indemnitee to the extent imposed as a result of the failure of

 

78

 

any such Section 6.3
Indemnitee, or in the case of any amounts payable by any Funding Agent, any related
Lender, to comply with the requirements of paragraph (b) of this Section 6.3
or as a result of such Lender failing to be a Qualifying Lender; provided further,
that the immediately preceding proviso shall not apply, and the Borrower’s
obligations to make increased payments to any Section 6.3 Indemnitee pursuant
to this Section 6.3(a) shall continue to apply, to the extent that any such
noncompliance or the failure to be a Qualifying Lender is attributable to (x) a
change in applicable law or regulation or in the interpretation thereof, or the
introduction of any law or regulation, in either case that occurs after the
Closing Date or later date on which a respective Section 6.3 Indemnitee becomes
a party hereto, or (y) the existence or exercise of the rights of the Borrower
or AMS AerCap described in Section 2.1(j). Whenever any Non-Excluded
Taxes are payable by the Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter, the
Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each
applicable Funding Agent for their respective accounts or for the account of
the applicable Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original
official receipt (or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to such Person)
received by the Borrower showing payment thereof. If the Borrower fails to pay
any Non-Excluded Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to
remit to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the applicable
Funding Agent, as the case may be, the required receipts or other required
documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent,
the Collateral Agent and the Lenders for any incremental Taxes, interest or
penalties (and related costs) that may become payable, respectively, by the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender as a result of any
such failure. The agreements in this Section 6.3 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts payable
hereunder.

 

(b) Each
Section 6.3 Indemnitee shall, to the extent it may lawfully do so, deliver to
the Borrower, or to the Funding Agent for each Funding Group in the case of any
Lender (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient), on or
prior to the date on which such Person becomes a Lender, Administrative Agent,
Collateral Agent or Funding Agent under this Agreement (and from time to time
thereafter upon the request of Borrower and each such Funding Agent), but only
if such Person is legally entitled to do so, any
form or information prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law as a basis for
claiming exemption from or a reduction in withholding tax duly completed
together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by any
applicable Requirement of Law to permit the Borrower or any applicable Funding
Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. Each
Section 6.3 Indemnitee agrees to take such actions as the Borrower shall
reasonably request and as are consistent with applicable Requirements of Law to
claim any available reductions or exemptions from Non-Excluded Taxes and to
otherwise cooperate with the Borrower to minimize any amounts payable by the
Borrower under this Section 6.3, provided that any material costs incurred in
taking such actions (including attorneys’ fees) shall be for the account of the
Borrower. Each Lender further represents that it is a Qualifying Lender as of
the Closing Date or other date as of which it becomes a Lender hereunder, and
agrees to advise the Borrower reasonably promptly following its becoming aware
that it is no longer a Qualifying Lender.

 

Without
limiting the foregoing, each Person that is an assignee pursuant to Article
XV shall, upon the effectiveness of the related transfer, be required to
provide all of the forms and statements required pursuant to this Section
6.3.

 

79

 

(c) The
Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp, sales, documentary, filing,
registration, excise or property Taxes or any other Taxes, fees, charges or
other levies payable, or determined to be payable, in connection with the
execution, delivery, filing recording or registration of this Agreement and any
other Transaction Documents and agrees to indemnify any Section 6.3 Indemnitee
against any liabilities (including related costs) with respect to or resulting
from any delay in paying or the omission to pay such Taxes.

 

(d) The
Borrower shall indemnify any Section 6.3 Indemnitee, within ten (10) Business
Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Non-Excluded
Taxes (including Non-Excluded Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to
amounts payable under this Section) paid by any such Section 6.3 Indemnitee,
and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses (including costs of
contesting such Non-Excluded Taxes) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. A
certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the
Borrower by any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), by the
Collateral Agent or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf
of any Lender, setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such
amount was determined, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

(e) If any
Section 6.3 Indemnitee receives a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been
indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid
additional amounts pursuant to this Section 6.3, such Section 6.3 Indemnitee
shall pay over such refund (net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Section
6.3 Indemnitee and without interest, other than any interest paid to it with
respect to such refund) to the Borrower (but only to the extent of the amounts
paid by the Borrower under this Section 6.3 with respect to the Taxes giving
rise to such refund, plus any interest received with respect to such refund);
provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of any such Section 6.3
Indemnitee, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any
penalties, interest or other charges imposed) to the Section 6.3 Indemnitee in
the event such Section 6.3 Indemnitee is required to repay such refund to any
Government Entity. This subsection (e) shall not be construed to require any
Section 6.3 Indemnitee to make available its Tax Returns (or any other
information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower
or any other Person.

 

SECTION 6.4         Indemnity Regarding Breakage Costs.
The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender
harmless from any loss (other than loss of Applicable Margin) or reasonable
expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default
or rescission, as applicable, by the Borrower in making a borrowing of,
conversion into or continuation of any Advance hereunder on the date requested
after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with
the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any
prepayment on the date requested after the Borrower has given a notice thereof
in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a
prepayment of Advances on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period
with respect thereto. Such indemnification shall be in an amount equal to the
excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the
amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, for the period from the date of such
prepayment or of such failure to borrow to the last day of such Interest Period
(or, in the case of a failure to borrow, the Interest Period that would have
commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of
interest for

 

80

 

such Advances
provided for herein (minus the Applicable Margin) over (ii) the amount of
interest (as determined by such Lender) which would have accrued to such Lender
on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with
leading banks in the interbank eurodollar market. This covenant shall survive
the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts payable
hereunder.

 

SECTION 6.5         Notice of Amounts Payable. In
the event that any Lender becomes aware that any amounts are or will be owed to
it pursuant to Section 6.1, 6.2 or 6.3(a), then it shall promptly notify
the Borrower thereof; provided that any failure to provide such notice
shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations hereunder or under the other
Transaction Documents or result in any liability of or on the part of such
Lender. The amounts set forth in such notice shall be conclusive and binding
for all purposes absent manifest error.

 

SECTION 6.6         Mitigation Obligations; Replacement.

 

(a)           If any Lender or any of its
Affiliates requests compensation under Section 6.2, or requires the Borrower
to pay any additional amount to such Lender, any of its Affiliates or any
Governmental Entity for the account of such Lender or any of its Affiliates
pursuant to Section 6.3, then such Lender (an “Affected Lender”)
shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for
funding or booking its Advances hereunder or to assign its rights and
obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in
the judgment of such Affected Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would
eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 6.2 or 6.3,
as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Affected
Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be
disadvantageous to such Affected Lender (other than in a de minimus manner). The Borrower hereby
agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Affected Lender
in connection with any such designation or assignment. A certificate setting
forth such costs and expenses submitted by such Affected Lender to the Borrower
shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

(b)           Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default or
Early Amortization Event hereunder, the Borrower shall have the right to
replace an Affected Lender which has not completed one of the mitigating
actions described in subsection (a) of this Section 6.6 resulting in the
elimination of any amounts payable pursuant to Section 6.2 or 6.3
within 60 days of becoming an Affected Lender hereunder (each such Affected
Lender being so replaced, a “Replaced Lender”) with one or more other
lending institutions (which may, but need not be, existing Lenders hereunder)
reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (any, a “Replacement
Lender”) that have agreed to purchase the outstanding Advances held by and
(as applicable) Non-Conduit Lender Commitments maintained by such Affected
Lender, pursuant to Article XV and one or more Assignment and Assumptions; provided
that:

 

(i)            each such
assignment shall be arranged by the Borrower in coordination with the
Administrative Agent; and

 

(ii)           no Replaced Lender
shall be obligated to make any such assignment pursuant to this subsection (b)
unless and until such Replaced Lender shall have received

 

81

 

one or more
payments from the Replacement Lender in an aggregate amount equal to the
aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances owing to such Replaced
Lender, and from the Borrower an aggregate amount equal to all accrued and
unpaid interest and fees thereon (including, in any event, any breakage
indemnities of the type described in Section 6.4) to the date of such payment
and all other amounts payable to such Replaced Lender under this Agreement,
including without limitation all amounts which, by virtue of its making claims
against the Borrower therefor, caused the Lender to become an Affected Lender
hereunder.

 

Upon the
effectiveness of such assignment, the Replacement Lender shall become a Lender
hereunder and (except with respect to any indemnities or other amounts payable
under this Agreement with respect to events or circumstances arising prior to
the replacement of such Replaced Lender, which shall survive as to such Replaced
Lender) the Replaced Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder.

SECTION 7.1         Conditions to Effectiveness;
Conditions to Release of Initial Advances. The effectiveness of this

Advance Rate Adjustments), no Borrowing Base Deficiency will exist (and the
Administrative Agent shall have received an Initial Advance Request and
borrowing base certification demonstrating the foregoing).

limitations on purpose and other bankruptcy remoteness provisions reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;

 

83

 

(viii)        Operating
Documents. Operating Documents of the Borrower, the Supporting Party and
each Service Provider, and each of the Borrower Subsidiaries, certified as of a

Foreign Aviation Law, and (C) as to such other matters as the Administrative
Agent may reasonably request (which request may include, with respect to
jurisdictions of concern to the Lenders, an opinion satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent advising as to creditor’s rights, including rights of
recovery and repossession of aircraft), provided, that the
Administrative Agent may not exercise such clause (C) right with respect to
Applicable Foreign Aviation Law of the countries listed on the Approved Country
List as in effect on the Initial Advance Date;

 

(xi)           Cape Town
Registration Opinions. With respect to each Initial Financed Aircraft or
related Aircraft Asset as to which any of the transactions contemplated in the
Initial Advance are creating or assigning (either absolutely or by grant of a
security interest) international interests that may be registered in the
International Registry, a legal opinion addressing the effectiveness and effect
of such registrations under the Cape Town Convention, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, provided,
that (A) if delivery of such opinion concurrently upon or prior to the Initial
Advance is not feasible after the Borrower’s using commercially reasonable
efforts to comply with this condition, such delivery shall not be a condition
precedent and instead shall be the subject of the Borrower’s covenant
obligation set forth at Section 10.2, and (B) if the provisions of
clause (A) apply to the delivery condition, it shall nonetheless be a condition
precedent that the Borrower deliver to the Administrative Agent a draft form of
such opinion, substantially in the form to be eventually delivered pursuant to Section

SECTION 7.2         Additional Advances. The release
of funds to the Borrower from the making of any Additional Advance under this
Agreement in connection with the acquisition of an Additionally Financed
Aircraft (i.e., not an
Improvement Advance, a Critical Mass Event Advance or an Increased Availability
Advance) is, in addition to the conditions precedent specified in Section
7.1 and Section 7.5, and subject to the funding and release
procedures described in Section 2.3(c), subject to the fulfillment of
the following conditions precedent:

 

(a) No
Borrowing Base Deficiency. After giving effect to the Additional Advance
and to the related release of funds (and for the avoidance of doubt,
determining each Borrowing Base for this purpose giving effect to the inclusion
of the incipient Additionally Financed Aircraft within the Borrower’s Portfolio
and to the application of all applicable Advance Rate Adjustments), no Borrowing
Base Deficiency will exist (and the Administrative Agent shall have received an
Additional Advance Request and a Holding Period Release Request, as applicable,
containing a borrowing base certification demonstrating the foregoing).

 

(b) Aircraft
and Lessee Limitations. If Critical Mass will exist after giving effect to
the Additional Advances or has previously been achieved, the acquisition of the
related Additionally Financed Aircraft into the Borrower’s Portfolio does not
constitute either an Aircraft Limitation Event or a Lessee Limitation Event.

 

(c) Aircraft Age.    Each
Additionally Financed Aircraft has an Aircraft Age of less than the Aircraft
Age Limit for Aircraft of its Type.

 

(d) Off-Lease Aircraft.   
No such Additionally Financed Aircraft to be acquired will be Off-Lease,
unless immediately after giving effect to such acquisition, not more than 10%
(measured by Adjusted Borrowing Value) of all Aircraft in the Borrower’s
Portfolio are Off-Lease.

 

(e) Deliveries.
The Administrative Agent shall have received all of the following, each duly
executed and dated the related Additional Advance Date or, if later, the date
of release of related funds to the Borrower (or such earlier date as shall be
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent), and otherwise as indicated below:

 

(i)            Incumbency. Certified
specimen signatures of officers of each Borrower Subsidiary that is becoming a
Borrower Group Member in connection with such Additional Advance;

comparable officials of the respective jurisdiction of formation of each
Borrower Subsidiary that is becoming a Borrower Group Member in connection with
such Additional Advance, as to the due existence and good standing (to the
extent such concept is applicable) of such Person;

 

(iii)          Aircraft
Acquisition Documents. Copies of the Aircraft Acquisition Documents in
respect of the Additionally Financed Aircraft (which shall have been delivered
in final, if available, or in draft form to the Administrative Agent at least

that

 

88

 

delivery of a
related Lessee insurance certificate shall be governed by the covenant of the
Borrower at Section 10.34 hereof;

 

(iv)          Organizational
Documents. The Organizational Documents of each Borrower Subsidiary that is
becoming a Borrower Group Member in connection with such Additional Advance,

Documents. Operating Documents of each Borrower Subsidiary that is becoming
a Borrower Group Member in connection with such Additional Advance, certified

applicable Aircraft Owning Entity is the registered owner of such Aircraft,
that such Aircraft is free and clear of recorded liens, and as to such other
matters as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request;

 

(vii)         Local Counsel
Opinions. With respect to each Additionally Financed Aircraft that is registered
in, or which is under Lease to a Lessee organized under the laws of or
domiciled in, a country other than the United States, the favorable written
opinion of Local Aircraft Counsel with respect to each Applicable Foreign
Aviation Law applicable to such Additionally Financed Aircraft as to (A) the
due registration of such Aircraft, and (B) that such Aircraft is free and clear
of recorded liens to the extent that liens may be recorded under Applicable
Foreign Aviation Law, and (C) as to such other matters as the Administrative
Agent may reasonably request (which request may include, with respect to
jurisdictions of concern to the Lenders, an opinion satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent advising as to creditor’s rights, including rights of
recovery and repossession of aircraft), provided, that the
Administrative Agent may not exercise such clause (C) right with respect to
Applicable Foreign Aviation Law of the countries listed on the current version
of the Approved Country List;

 

(viii)        Cape Town Registration
Opinions. With respect to each Additionally Financed Aircraft or related

Agent, provided, that (A) if
delivery of such opinion concurrently upon or prior to the release to the
Borrower of funds under an Additional Advance is not feasible after the
Borrower’s using commercially reasonable efforts to comply with this condition,

subject of the Borrower’s covenant obligation set forth at Section 10.2,
and (B) if the provisions of clause (A) apply to the delivery condition, it
shall nonetheless be a condition precedent to the release of funds

 

89

Interest Granted by Non-Irish or Non-U.S. Lessor. With respect to each
Additionally Financed Aircraft the Lessor of which is domiciled or otherwise

Lease granted by the Lessor under the Security Trust Agreement, a legal
opinion, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent, addressing and confirming the taking of such actions or making of such

and effect of perfection and/or priority of the Collateral Agent’s security
interest (or confirming that such actions will be taken or filings will be

ARTICLE

COVENANTS

 

From the
Closing Date until the later of the Facility Termination Date or the day
thereafter on which all Obligations shall have been finally and fully paid and
performed, the Borrower hereby covenants and agrees as follows:

 

SECTION
10.1  Legal Existence and Good
Standing. The Borrower shall, and the Borrower shall cause each of the
Borrower Subsidiaries to, maintain (a) its legal existence and, if applicable,
good standing in the jurisdiction of its formation, incorporation, or
organization and (b) its qualification and, if applicable, good standing in all
other jurisdictions in which the failure to maintain such qualification and
good standing could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect.

 

SECTION
10.2  Protection of Security Interest
of the Lenders.

 

(a) (i) At or
prior to the Initial Advance Date, the Borrower shall have filed or caused to
be filed, with respect to itself and each other Borrower Group Member that is a
grantor of security interests under the Security Trust Agreement, UCC-1
financing statements and amendments thereto, naming such Borrower Group Member
as debtor, naming the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Lenders, the
Administrative Agent and the Funding Agents) as secured party and describing
the applicable Borrower Collateral (such UCC-1 financing statements and
amendments to be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral
Agent), with the Washington, D.C. Office of Registry and in such other
jurisdictions and locations as may be required to perfect the security
interests in the Borrower Collateral granted

 

122

 

under the
Security Trust Agreement and/or as the Collateral Agent or the Funding Agents
shall have reasonably required. From time to time, on or after the Initial
Advance Date, the Borrower shall execute and file (or cause to be executed and
filed) such financing statements and cause to be executed and filed such
continuation statements, and shall make such registrations of international
interests and assignments thereof existing or arising under the Cape Town
Convention, including without limitation any prospective filings or other
filings necessary or advisable under the Cape Town Convention (provided, that if a Lessee’s cooperation
is necessary to effectuate any such registrations, the Borrower shall only be
required to make such registration to the extent feasible using commercially
reasonable efforts), all in such manner and in such places as may be required
by law fully to preserve, maintain and protect the interest of the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Funding Agent and the Lenders
under this Agreement and the Security Trust Agreement in the Borrower
Collateral, and in the proceeds thereof. In addition, with respect to the
delivery of any legal opinion in respect of the Cape Town Convention, stated to
be a condition precedent to Advances under Section 7.1 or Section 7.2
hereof, but the execution and delivery of which is relegated to an undertaking
of the Borrower under this subsection (a)(i), the Borrower agrees to obtain the
relevant legal opinion as soon as feasible but in no event later than ten (10)
Business Days following the date of the related release of funds to the
Borrower in respect of the Advance. The Borrower shall in any case deliver (or
cause to be delivered) to the Administrative Agent file-stamped copies of, or
filing receipts for, any document filed or registration effected as provided
above, as soon as available following such filing or registration. In the event
that the Borrower fails to perform its obligations under this subsection, the
Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent may (and upon the direction of
any Funding Agent shall) do so at the expense of the Borrower, to the extent
that they are legally entitled to do so.

 

(ii)
Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Credit Document to the
contrary, the Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to file or prepare
any financing statement or continuation statement or to take any action or to
execute any further documents or instruments in order to create, preserve or
perfect the security interest granted hereunder, such obligations being solely
the obligations of the Borrower (or, as applicable, a Service Provider).

 

(b) The
Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any other Borrower Group Member that
is a grantor of a security interest under the Security Trust Agreement to,
change its name, identity, or corporate structure in any manner that would,
could or might make any financing statement or continuation statement filed in
accordance with paragraph (a) above seriously misleading within the meaning of
§ 9-402(7) of the UCC, unless the Borrower shall have given the Administrative
Agent and each Funding Agent at least thirty (30) days prior written notice
thereof, and shall promptly file appropriate amendments to all previously filed
financing statements and continuation statements.

 

(c) The
Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at least sixty (60) days’ prior
written notice of any change of the Borrower’s, or any other Borrower Group
Member’s, jurisdiction of formation or organization. The Borrower shall at all
times maintain its principal office within Bermuda, provided that the Borrower
may be an Irish tax resident.

 

123

 

(d) The
Borrower shall furnish to the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and
each Funding Agent from time to time such statements and schedules further
identifying and describing the Borrower Collateral and such other reports in
connection with the Borrower Collateral as the Collateral Agent, the
Administrative Agent or any Funding Agent may reasonably request, all in
reasonable detail.

 

(e) The
Borrower will not maintain, nor permit a Lessor to maintain, for purposes of
determining perfection by possession under applicable law, possession of any
executed original counterparts of the Leases that would be deemed the Chattel
Paper Original in a jurisdiction other than Ireland, unless such Lease is an
executed original or Chattel Paper Original deposited with the Collateral
Agent.

 

SECTION
10.3  Records.

 

(a) The
Borrower shall maintain its computer systems so that, from and after the time
of the Initial Advance under this Agreement, its Records indicate clearly that
the Borrower Collateral is directly or indirectly owned by Borrower or another
Borrower Group Member.

 

(b) The
Borrower shall, at its own cost and expense, maintain complete records of the
Aircraft, the Leases and the other Aircraft Assets, consistent with those of a
prudent international operating lessor. Upon request of the Collateral Agent,
the Borrower shall, and shall cause the Borrower Subsidiaries to, deliver and
turn over to the Collateral Trustee or to its representatives, or upon the
request of the Administrative Agent, shall provide the Administrative Agent or
its representatives with access to, during ordinary business hours, upon
reasonable notice by the Administrative Agent, which shall in no event be less
than three (3) Business Days (except if an Event of Default shall have
occurred), all of the Borrower’s and the Borrower Subsidiaries’ facilities,
appropriate supervisory personnel and Records pertaining to the Aircraft and
Aircraft Assets. Promptly upon request therefor, the Borrower shall, and shall
cause the Borrower Subsidiaries to, provide access to the Administrative Agent
to Records reflecting activity relating to the Aircraft and Aircraft Assets
through the close of business on the immediately preceding Business Day.

 

(c) With
respect to technical and maintenance Records relating to a Funded Aircraft, the
Borrower agrees (and agree to cause the applicable Lessor) to provide the
Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent, promptly upon request, access to
(i) while the Aircraft is under Lease, such Records of the Lessee that the
Lessor is entitled itself to access under, and subject to the restrictions of,
the related Lease, and (ii) in any case, such Records that the Borrower or the
Lessor maintains on its own account. The Borrower agrees to maintain and update
such Records consistent with the Servicer Performance Standard.

 

SECTION
10.4  Other Liens or Interests.

 

(a) Except for
the security interest granted under the Security Trust Agreement, and as
otherwise permitted under the Transaction Documents, the Borrower will not
sell, assign or transfer (other than as permitted hereunder) or pledge to any
other Person, or grant, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Adverse
Claim (other than Permitted Liens) on any of the Borrower’s assets, including
without limitation, any Aircraft or other Aircraft Assets, the

 

124

 

Borrower
Collateral or any interest therein, and the Borrower shall defend the right,
title, and interest of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the
Administrative Agent, the Funding Agents and the Lenders) in and to the
Borrower Collateral against all claims of third parties claiming through or
under the Borrower.

 

(b) Except for
the security interest granted under the Security Trust Agreement, and as
otherwise permitted under the Transaction Documents, the Borrower shall cause
each Borrower Subsidiary not to sell, pledge, assign or transfer to any other
Person, or grant, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Adverse Claim
(other than Permitted Liens) on any of their assets, including any Aircraft or
other Aircraft Assets, or any Lease, Related Security or other Borrower
Collateral owned by, entered into by or related to such Borrower Subsidiary, or
any interest therein. Without limiting the foregoing, the Borrower will not,
and will not cause or permit any Borrower Subsidiary to, do anything to impair
the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in any Aircraft or other
Aircraft Assets, or any Leases, Related Security or other Borrower Collateral
owned by, entered into by or related to such Borrower Subsidiary, or any
interest therein other than to the extent expressly permitted under the
Transaction Documents.

 

SECTION
10.5  Negative Pledge Clause. The
Borrower shall not, and the Borrower shall not cause or permit any Borrower
Subsidiary to enter into or cause, suffer or permit to exist, any agreement
with any Person other than the Collateral Trustee, Administrative Agent, the
Funding Agent and the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement or any other
Transaction Documents which prohibits or limits the ability of the Borrower or
any Borrower Subsidiary to create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Adverse
Claim upon any of its property, assets or revenues, whether now owned or
hereafter acquired.

 

SECTION
10.6  Maintain Properties. The
Borrower shall (i) with respect to each Aircraft that is subject to a Lease,
but in any case subject to all applicable legal and contractual restraints on
performing such obligation including such Lease (and subject to the cooperation
of the applicable Lessee, which the Borrower agrees to direct the Servicer to
pursue, consistent with the Servicer Standard of Performance), cause, directly
or indirectly, through any Borrower Subsidiary, such Aircraft to be maintained
in a state of repair and condition consistent with Leasing Company Practice
with respect to similar aircraft under lease, taking into consideration, among
other things, the age and condition of the Aircraft and the jurisdiction in
which such Aircraft will be operated or registered under any Lease, and (ii)
with respect to each Aircraft that is not subject to a Lease, maintain, and
cause each Borrower Subsidiary to maintain, such Aircraft in a state of repair
and condition consistent with Leasing Company Practice with respect to aircraft
not under lease. The Borrower shall and shall cause each Borrower Subsidiary to
maintain all other properties (i.e.,
other than Funded Aircraft) necessary to its operations in good working order
and condition, make all needed repairs, replacements and renewals to such
properties, and maintain free from Adverse Claims all trademarks, trade names,
patents, copyrights, trade secrets, know-how, and other intellectual property
and proprietary information (or adequate licenses thereto), in each case as are
reasonably necessary to conduct its business as currently conducted or as
contemplated hereby, all in accordance with customary and prudent business
practices.

 

125

 

SECTION 10.7  Ownership, Operation and Leasing of Funded
Aircraft. The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any Borrower
Subsidiary to:

 

(a) Other than in connection with a sale, transfer or other disposition
permitted under Section 10.8, permit any Person other than the
applicable Aircraft Owning Entity (or an Owner Participant as the Owner of all
of the beneficial interest in an Owner Trust) to own beneficially or of record
any Aircraft (except to the extent required by applicable law);

 

(b) Enforce any Lease with respect to any Aircraft in a manner other
than the manner in which the Servicer is required to enforce such Lease under
the Servicing Agreement;

 

(c) Enter into a Lease with respect to an Aircraft after the Initial
Advance Date unless such Lease is an Eligible Lease and, while Critical Mass
exists, such action does not constitute a Lessee Limitation Event; and

 

(d) Enter into a Future Lease with a Lessee that is domiciled in or
organized under the laws of a country that is not, at the time of entry into such
Future Lease, either (i) on the Approved Country List, (ii) a country as to
which the Borrower shall have procured the Required Coverage Amount (with such
Required Coverage Amount being determined after giving effect to the
origination of such Future Lease), or (iii) unless the Borrower shall have
first given the Administrative Agent at least ten (10) Business Days’ written
notice of its intent to enter into such Lease. Following such written notice,
and before the Borrower may enter into such Lease, the Administrative Agent
shall have up to ten (10) Business Days to determine whether it will request an
additional legal opinion of the type it would be able to request, under Section
7.2(e)(vii)(C) hereof, if an Aircraft leased to such Lessee were to be the
subject of an Additional Advance Request as a proposed Additionally Financed
Aircraft hereunder. If the Administrative Agent makes such a request prior to
the end of such ten Business Day period, the Borrower may not enter into such
Lease until it has first delivered such a legal opinion to the Administrative
Agent. If the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower during such ten
Business Day period that it is not requesting delivery of such a legal opinion,
or if the Administrative Agent fails to notify the Borrower of its intent by
the end of such ten Business Day period, then the Borrower may proceed to enter
into such Lease (subject to any other applicable conditions or requirements
herein or in any other Credit Document). It is understood that the foregoing
provisions and conditions concerning a request for an additional legal opinion
shall only apply to proposed or incipient Future Leases with a Lessee not
currently the Lessee of the applicable Funded Aircraft, i.e., such provisions and conditions shall
not apply to Future Leases that are renewals or extensions of a Lease of the
applicable Funded Aircraft with its existing Lessee.

 

SECTION
10.8  Limitation on Disposition of
Aircraft. Without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent,
which such consent shall be granted or withheld in the sole and absolute
discretion of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall not sell, transfer
or otherwise dispose of any Aircraft or any Equity Interest in any Borrower
Subsidiary, including, without limitation, in connection with an ABS
Transaction, or allow any Borrower Subsidiary to sell,

 

126

 

transfer or
otherwise dispose of any Aircraft or any Equity Interest in any Borrower
Subsidiary, including, without limitation, in connection with an ABS
Transaction, except (x) in connection with transfers wholly among the Borrower
Group Members, (y) pursuant to a Qualifying Purchase Option, or (z) pursuant to
any such other sale, transfer or other disposition in which the following
conditions are satisfied:

 

(a) such sale, transfer or other disposition is not structured as a
sale and leaseback transaction;

 

(b) the price for such sale, transfer or other disposition (net of
closing costs, broker fees and other related expenses, and net of Tax
liabilities payable by the Borrower or any Borrower Subsidiary attributable to
such sale, transfer or disposition) equals or exceeds an amount equal to the
Allocable Advance Amount with respect to the related Aircraft as of the date of
such sale, transfer or other disposition (if the date of such sale, transfer or
other disposition is a Payment Date) or as of the immediately preceding Payment
Date (if the date of such sale, transfer or other disposition is not a Payment
Date);

 

(c) such sale, transfer or other disposition (i) does not constitute an
Aircraft Limitation Event or a Lessee Limitation Event, and (ii) does not have
as its immediate effect causing Critical Mass to no longer exist, and (iii)
occurs at a time when Critical Mass exists, and (iv) does not have as its
immediate effect, that after giving effect to such sale, transfer or other
disposition, that more than 10% (measured by Adjusted Borrowing Value) of all
Aircraft in the Borrower’s Portfolio will be Off-Lease; provided, that
during the Amortization Period, such sale, transfer or other disposition may
occur even if any of the foregoing conditions in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) is
not met, so long as the price for such sale, transfer or other disposition (net
of closing costs, broker fees and other related expenses, and net of Tax
liabilities payable by the Borrower or any Borrower Subsidiary attributable to
such sale, transfer or disposition) equals or exceeds an amount equal to, at
least 125% of the Allocable Advance Amount with respect to the affected
Aircraft as of the date of such sale, transfer or other disposition (if the
date of such sale, transfer or other disposition is a Payment Date) or as of
the immediately preceding Payment Date (if the date of such sale, transfer or
other disposition is not a Payment Date), and provided further, that
during either the Amortization Period or the period prior to the Amortization
Period, such sale, transfer or other disposition may occur even if any of the
foregoing conditions in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) is not met, so long as (A)
such sale is occurring in connection with an ABS Transaction entered into for
the purpose of refinancing a substantial portion of the Funded Aircraft, and
(B) after giving effect to the sale, no Borrowing Base Deficiency will then
exist;

 

(d) no Event of Default or Early Amortization Event shall have occurred
at or prior to the time of, or shall occur as a result of, such sale, transfer
or other disposition;

 

(e) after giving effect to such sale, transfer or other disposition,
and if the date of such sale, transfer or other disposition is a Payment Date,
after giving effect to the distribution of funds under the Flow of Funds on
such Payment Date, or if not, then after

 

127

 

giving effect
to the distribution of funds under the Flow of Funds on the next Payment Date,
no Borrowing Base Deficiency will exist; and

 

(f) the board of directors of the Borrower shall have authorized the
sale, transfer or other disposition.

 

The Borrower
shall deposit, and shall cause the Borrower Subsidiaries to immediately
deposit, in each case with written notice to the Collateral Agent, the proceeds
of any such sale, transfer or other disposition, including, without limitation
any such sale, transfer or other disposition of any Aircraft or any Equity
Interests in any Borrower Subsidiary in connection with any ABS Transaction,
into the Collection Account for application thereof (i) on the date of such
deposit (in the case of the proceeds of an ABS Transaction or any significant
sale, transfer or other disposition designated as such by the Administrative
Agent) in the order of priority set forth in the Flow of Funds hereof with such
holdbacks with respect to applications of funds (other than applications to the
repayment of Advances) as the Administrative Agent deems desirable and (ii) on
the next succeeding Payment Date (in any case other than the case of the
proceeds of an ABS Transaction or any significant sale, transfer or other disposition
designated as such by the Administrative Agent) in accordance with the Flow of

11.2  Service Providers Not to Resign.
No Service Provider shall resign from the obligations and duties imposed on it
by this Agreement or the applicable Service Provider Agreements to which it is
a party, except upon a determination that, by reason of a change in legal requirements,
the performance of its duties under this Agreement or the applicable Service

the prior Service Provider, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all
documents and other instruments and to do or accomplish all other acts or
things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of

12.3  Appointment of Successor Service
Provider; New Service Provider Agreement.

Eligible Service Provider as a successor Service Provider for such services,
and shall have no liability to the Funding Agents, the Lenders, the Borrower,
the Aircraft Owning Entities, the Owner Participants or AerCap in doing so, to
be the successor in all respects to the terminated Service Provider in its
capacity as service provider under this Agreement and the applicable Service
Provider Agreement  and the transactions
set forth or provided for in this Agreement and the applicable Service Provider
Agreement, and such successor Service Provider shall be subject to all the
responsibilities, restrictions, duties, liabilities and termination provisions
relating thereto placed on the prior applicable Service Provider by the terms and
provisions of this Agreement and the applicable Service Provider Agreement; provided,
however, that such successor Service Provider shall not be liable for
any acts, omissions or obligations of the applicable Service Provider prior to
such succession or for any breach by such prior Service Provider of any of its
representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or the applicable
Service Provider Agreement or in any related document or agreement. Such
successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, and the
applicable Service Provider Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any
such succession. The Borrower, the Aircraft Owning Entities and the Owner
Participants shall enter into a market standard servicing agreement (or administrative
agency agreement or cash management agreement, as applicable) with any
successor Service Provider with market acceptance for the servicing of a
portfolio of aircraft and aircraft leases in form and substance satisfactory to
the Administrative Agent. If a successor Service Provider is acting as Service
Provider hereunder, it shall be subject to termination under Section 12.2
or Section 13.2(c) hereof.

 

(b) If any
successor Service Provider appointed by the Administrative Agent shall be
legally unable to act as a Service Provider and the Administrative Agent shall
not have appointed a successor Service Provider that is legally able and
willing to act as Service Provider, such successor Service Provider may
petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint any Eligible Servicer as
its successor. Pending such appointment, the outgoing Service Provider shall
continue to act as Service Provider under the applicable Service Provider
Agreement until a successor has been appointed and accepted such appointment.

 

(c) Any
successor Service Provider shall be entitled to such compensation as the
outgoing Service Provider would have been entitled to under the applicable
Service Provider Agreement if the applicable Service Provider had not resigned
or been terminated hereunder. If any successor Service Provider is appointed
for any reason, the Administrative Agent and such successor Service Provider
may agree on additional compensation to be paid to such successor Service
Provider. In addition, any successor Service Provider shall be entitled to
reasonable transition expenses incurred in acting as successor Servicer
Provider under the relevant Service Provider Agreement.

 

(d) In the
event of the termination of the rights and obligations of the a Service Provider
(or any successor thereto) pursuant to Section 12.2 or Section
13.2(c), or a resignation by a

 

145

 

Service
Provider pursuant to this Agreement or the relevant Service Provider Agreement,
such Service Provider shall be deemed to be the applicable Service Provider
pending appointment of a successor Service Provider pursuant to this Section
12.3.

Provider under the applicable Service Provider Agreement, and the
Administrative Agent may appoint a successor Service Provider in accordance with
Section 12.3 (such termination to be effective as specified in this
Agreement).

 

SECTION
13.3  Rights Upon the Facility
Termination Date.

 

(a) Remedies.
On the Facility Termination Date, all outstanding Advances under this
Agreement, together with accrued Yield, and all other Obligations under this
Agreement shall become immediately due and payable, without presentment,
demand, protest, or notice of any kind. If the Borrower fails to pay in full
all such accrued Yield, and all other Obligations on the Facility Termination
Date, the Administrative Agent, shall, upon the direction of the Class A
Majority Lenders (and subject to Section 13.3(c)), exercise any of the
following remedies (or direct the Collateral Agent in writing so to exercise):

 

(i)            [Reserved].

 

(ii)           Subject to any
Obligors’ rights under the Leases, immediately sell or otherwise dispose of the
Borrower Collateral in a commercially reasonable manner, in a recognized market
(if one exists) at such price or prices as the Administrative Agent, in
consultation with the Class A Funding Agents, may reasonably deem satisfactory
and apply the proceeds thereof to the Obligations in the order of priority set
forth in the Flow of Funds hereof.

 

(iii)          The parties
recognize that it may not be possible to purchase or sell all of the Borrower
Collateral on a particular Business Day, or in a transaction with the same
purchaser, or in the same manner because the market therefor may not be liquid.
Accordingly, the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Class A Funding
Agents, may elect, in its sole discretion or at the discretion of any Funding
Agent, the time and

 

148

 

manner of
liquidating any item of Borrower Collateral and nothing contained herein shall (A)
obligate the Collateral Agent to liquidate any Borrower Collateral on the
occurrence of the Facility Termination Date or to liquidate all of the the
Borrower Collateral in the same manner or on the same Business Day or (B)
constitute a waiver of any right or remedy of the Lenders.

 

(iv)          The Administrative
Agent, the Funding Agents and the Lenders shall have, in addition to all the
rights and remedies provided herein and provided by applicable federal, state,
foreign, and local laws (including, without limitation, the rights and remedies
of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code of any applicable state,
to the extent that the Uniform Commercial Code is applicable, and the right to
offset any mutual debt and claim), all rights and remedies available to the
Lenders in law, in equity, or under any other agreement between the Lenders and
the Borrower.

 

(b) Excess
Proceeds. Any amounts received from any sale or liquidation of the Borrower
Collateral pursuant to this Section 13.3 in excess of the Obligations
will be returned to the Borrower, its successors or assigns, or to whosoever
may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent
jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

 

(c) AerCap
Sub Note Buyout. Prior to any sale or liquidation or other exercise of
remedies against or in respect of the Borrower Collateral pursuant to this Section
13.3, one or more holders of the AerCap Sub Notes may elect to purchase
all, but not less than all, of the entire outstanding principal balance of the
Advances, at a purchase price equal to the unpaid principal balance of such
Advances, plus accrued interest thereon, together with any fees, indemnity
amounts or other amounts owed the Lenders hereunder (and not including any
amount in respect of expected but lost future benefit or profit). Such right
shall be exercised by such holders giving the Administrative Agent written
notice of the intent to purchase such Advances within twenty (20) Business Days
of the date that the Facility Termination Date has occurred or been declared,
and the date on which such purchase is to be consummated, which shall be not
more than ten (10) Business Days after delivery of such written notice. None of
the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent nor any Lender may sell, liquidate
or otherwise exercise remedies against or in respect of the Borrower Collateral
prior to the end of such twenty and (if applicable) ten Business Day period. 

 

The
Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy of each such purchase option
notice that is timely given, to the Lenders and each Funding Agent. On the date
specified in the purchase option notice, the Lenders shall transfer, by an
instrument of assignment suitable for such purpose, all of their right, title
and interest in and to such Advances and any related Note, upon the tender to
them of the purchase price specified above. If the holder(s) of the AerCap Sub
Notes fail to consummate the purchase of such Advances after giving a notice of
intent, or fails to timely give a notice of intent, such holder(s) shall be
deemed to have irrevocably waived the right to purchase such Advances.

 

(d) Buyout
Rights of Subordinate Lenders. At any time after the occurrence of and
during the continuation of an Event of Default, but in no event prior to the end
of the twenty and (if applicable) ten Business Day period described in
subsection (c) of this Section above,

 

149

 

(i) each Class B Lender shall have the right to purchase all, but not
less than all, of the outstanding Class A Advances upon ten days’ written
notice to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each other Class B
Lender, provided that (A) if
prior to the end of such ten-day period any other Class B Lender notifies such
purchasing Class B Lender that such other Class B Lender wants to participate
in such purchase, then such other Class B Lender may join with the purchasing
Class B Lender to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Class A Advances
pro rata based on the respective Class B Lenders’ proportionate share of all
Class B Advances outstanding, and (B) if prior to the end of such ten-day
period any other Class B Lender fails to notify the purchasing Class B Lender
of such other Class B Lender’s desire to participate in such a purchase, then
such other Class B Lender shall lose its right to purchase the Class A Advances
pursuant to this Section 13.03(d); and

 

(ii) each Class C Lender shall have the right (which shall not expire
upon any purchase of the Class A Advances pursuant to paragraph (a) above) to
purchase all, but not less than all, of the Class A Advances and the Class B
Advances upon ten days’ written notice to the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent and each other Class C Lender, provided that (A) if prior to the end of such ten-day period
any other Class C Lender notifies such purchasing Class C Lender that such
other Class C Lender wants to participate in such purchase, then such other
Class C Lender may join with the purchasing Class C Lender to purchase all, but
not less than all, of the Class A Advances and the Class B Advances pro rata
based on the respective Class C Lenders’ proportionate share of all Class C
Advances outstanding and (B) if prior to the end of such ten-day period any
other Class C Lender fails to notify the purchasing Class C Lender of such
other Class C Lender’s desire to participate in such a purchase, then such
other Class C Lender shall lose its right to purchase the Class A Advances and
Class B Advances pursuant to this Section 13.03(d).

 

The purchase
price with respect to the Class A Advances (or Class B Advances, if applicable)
shall be equal to their outstanding unpaid principal balance, together with
accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of such purchase, without
premium, but including any other amounts then due and payable to the Class A
Lenders or Class B Lenders (if applicable) under this Agreement; provided that no such purchase of Class A
Advances or Class B Advances shall be effective unless the purchaser(s) shall
certify to the Administrative Agent that contemporaneously with such purchase,
such purchaser(s) is purchasing, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the
outstanding Advances which are senior to the Advances held by such
purchaser(s). Each payment of the purchase price of the Class A Advances or
Class B Advances, as the case may be, referred to in the first sentence hereof
shall be made to an account or accounts designated by the Administrative Agent
and each such purchase shall be subject to the terms of this Section 13.03(d). Each
Class A Lender agrees by its acceptance of its Class A Advances that it will,
upon payment from such Class B Lender or Class C Lender(s), as the case may be,
of the purchase price set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph,
forthwith sell, assign, transfer and convey to the purchaser(s) thereof
(without recourse, representation or warranty of any kind except for its own
acts), all of the right, title, interest and obligation of such Class A Lender
under this Agreement but, excluding all right, title and interest under the
foregoing to the extent such right, title or interest is with respect to an
obligation not then due

 

150

 

and payable as
respects any action or Inaction or state of affairs occurring prior to such
sale) and the purchaser shall assume all of such Class A Lender obligations
under this Agreement. Each Class B Lender agrees by its acceptance of its Class
B Advances that it will, upon payment from such Class C Lender(s), as the case
may be, of the purchase price set forth in the first sentence of this
paragraph, forthwith sell, assign, transfer and convey to the purchaser(s)
thereof (without recourse, representation or warranty of any kind except for
its own acts), all of the right, title, interest and obligation of such Class B
Lender under this Agreement but, excluding all right, title and interest under
the foregoing to the extent such right, title or interest is with respect to an
obligation not then due and payable as respects any action or Inaction or state
of affairs occurring prior to such sale) and the purchaser shall assume all of
such Class B Lender obligations under this Agreement. The Class B Advances  will be deemed to be purchased on the date
payment of the purchase price is made notwithstanding the failure of the Class
B Lenders to deliver any Note and, upon such a purchase, (i) the only rights of
the Class B Lenders will be to deliver the Class B Advances to the purchaser(s)
and receive the purchase price for such Class B Advances and (ii) if the
purchaser(s) shall so request, such Class B Lenders will comply with all the
provisions of the Credit Agreement to enable new Class B Advances to be issued
to the purchaser in such denominations as it shall request. All charges and
expenses in connection with the issuance of any such new Class B Lender shall
be borne by the purchaser thereof.

to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions
of any Transaction Document on the part of AerCap, the Borrower, any Service

Provider or
any of their respective Affiliates or to inspect the property (including the
books and records) of AerCap, the Borrower, any Service Provider or any of
their respective Affiliates; (d) shall not be responsible to any Lender or

liability under or in respect of any Transaction Document by acting upon any
notice (including notice by telephone), consent, certificate or other

believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.

 

SECTION
14.3  Administrative Agent and
Affiliates. The Administrative Agent, including, but not limited to, UBSS
and any of its Affiliates may generally engage in any kind of business with
AerCap, the Borrower, the Service Providers, any Obligor, any of their

of AerCap, the Borrower, the Service Providers, any Obligor or any of their
respective Affiliates, all as if the Administrative Agent were not the Administrative
Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to any Lender or
Funding Agent.

 

SECTION
14.4  Lender’s Credit Decision. Each
Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent, any of its Affiliates or any other Lender and based on
such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own

SECTION 14.5  Certain Matters Affecting the
Administrative Agent.

 

(a) The
Administrative Agent may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining

request, consent, order, appraisal, bond or other paper or document believed by
it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or
parties.

taken or suffered or omitted by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement
in good faith and in accordance with such Opinion of Counsel.

of any Funding Agent or Lender pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement
unless such Funding Agent or Lender shall have furnished to the Administrative
Agent security or indemnity satisfactory to the Administrative Agent against
the costs, expenses and liabilities that may be incurred therein or thereby.

 

152

 

(d) The
Administrative Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the
facts of matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument
opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond or other paper
or documents, unless requested in writing to do so by the Class Majority
Lenders; provided, however, that if the payment within a
reasonable time to the Administrative Agent of the costs, expenses or
liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is,
in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, not reasonably assured to the
Administrative Agent by the security afforded to it by the terms of this
Agreement, the Administrative Agent may require indemnity satisfactory to it
against such cost, expense or liability as a condition to so proceeding; the
reasonable expense of every such examination shall be paid by the Person making

if the Administrative Agent shall have been advised by counsel that such action
is contrary to the terms of this Agreement or any Transaction Document or is
contrary to law.

 

(h) The
Borrower and the Service Providers hereby (i) acknowledge that the Funding

Providers, with respect to taking or refraining from taking any such actions at
the request of any  Funding Agent or
Lender.

 

(i) When this
Agreement or any other Credit Document provides that a right, consent, approval
or duty is expressly stated to be exercisable or performable by the
Administrative Agent, the parties hereto understand and agree that the
Administrative Agent is entitled to exercise its rights under such provision
without the consent of the Lenders.

 

SECTION
14.6  Administrative Agent Not Liable.
The Administrative Agent makes no representations as to the validity or
sufficiency of this Agreement, any Note or any other Transaction Document. The
Administrative Agent shall at no time have any responsibility or liability for
or with respect to the legality, validity or enforceability of any security
interest in any Borrower Collateral, or the perfection and priority of such a

representation prior to the Administrative Agent’s receipt of notice or other
discovery of any noncompliance therewith or any breach thereof, any investment
of monies by or at the direction of the Borrower or the applicable Service
Provider, or any loss resulting therefrom (it being understood, however,
that the Administrative Agent shall remain otherwise responsible for any
Borrower Collateral that it may hold directly); the acts or omissions of the
Borrower, any Service Provider, the Collateral Agent, AerCap or any Obligor,

the Administrative Agent, Funding Agents and/or Lenders which are authorized to
provide such instruction in accordance with this Agreement or any of the other
Transaction Documents; provided, however, that the foregoing
shall not relieve the Administrative Agent of its obligations to perform its
duties under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall not be accountable

for the use or application of any funds paid to a Service Provider in respect
of the Leases or any other Aircraft Assets related to the Aircraft.

unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall promptly appoint a successor
Administrative Agent by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which
instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Administrative Agent and the
other copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the successor
Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so
appointed and have accepted appointment within thirty (30) days after the

petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor
Administrative Agent. The Borrower shall reimburse the resigning Administrative
Agent pursuant to the Flow of Funds for all expenses that shall have been
incurred by such resigning Administrative Agent in accordance with this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents prior to the effective date of
resignation of such resigning Administrative Agent.

 

154

time the Administrative Agent shall be legally unable to act, or shall be
adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Administrative Agent or
of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or
control of the Administrative Agent or of its property or affairs for the

shall remove the Administrative Agent. If the Administrative Agent shall have
been removed under the authority of the immediately preceding sentence, the
Class Majority Lenders (with approval of the Borrower and the Service
Providers, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall promptly appoint a
successor Administrative Agent by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of
which instrument shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent so removed and
the other copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the successor
Administrative Agent. The Borrower shall reimburse the removed Administrative

resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent and appointment of a
successor Agent pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 14.8

Any successor Administrative Agent appointed as provided in this Article XIV
shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Borrower, the Service Providers,
each Funding Agent and to its predecessor Administrative Agent an instrument

or removal of the predecessor Administrative Agent shall become effective and
such successor Administrative Agent, without any further act, deed or
conveyance (except as provided below), shall become fully vested with all the
rights, power, duties and obligations of its predecessor under this Agreement,
with like effect as if originally named as Administrative Agent; but, on
request of the Borrower or any Service Provider, or the successor
Administrative Agent, such predecessor Administrative Agent shall, upon payment
of its expenses then unpaid, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to
such successor Administrative Agent all of the rights, powers and trusts of the
Administrative Agent so ceasing to act, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver
to such successor Administrative Agent all property and money held by such
Administrative Agent so ceasing to act hereunder. Upon request of any such
successor Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute any and all
instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such
successor Administrative Agent all such rights, powers and trusts. The
predecessor Administrative Agent shall deliver to the successor Administrative
Agent all documents and statements held by it under this Agreement or any
Transaction Document; and the predecessor Administrative Agent and the other
parties to the Transaction Documents shall amend any Transaction Document to
make the successor Administrative Agent the successor to the predecessor
Administrative Agent thereunder; and the applicable Service Provider and the
predecessor Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver such instruments and
do such other things as may reasonably be required for fully and certainly
vesting and confirming in the successor Administrative Agent all such rights,
powers, duties and obligations. No successor Administrative Agent shall accept
its appointment as provided in this Section 14.9 unless at the time of
such acceptance such successor Administrative Agent shall be eligible under the
provisions of Section 14.10. Upon acceptance of appointment by a
successor

 

155

 

Administrative
Agent as provided in this Section 14.9, the Borrower shall mail notice
by first-class mail of the appointment of the successor of such Administrative
Agent and the address of the successor Administrative Agent’s corporate trust
office under this Agreement to all Lenders at their addresses as shown in the
Note Register or if no Note Register is required to be maintained with respect
to any Lender pursuant to Section 15.5(b), such other address or such other
address as shall be maintained for such Lender by the applicable Funding Agent.
If the Borrower fails to mail such notice within ten (10) days after acceptance
of appointment by the successor Administrative Agent, the successor
Administrative Agent shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the
Borrower.

 

SECTION
14.10  Eligibility Requirements for
Successor Agent. Any successor Administrative Agent under this Agreement
shall be a corporation duly organized and validly existing under the laws of
its jurisdiction of incorporation authorized under such laws to exercise
corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000
and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority. If
such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to
law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority,
then for the purpose of this Section 14.10, the combined capital and
surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and
surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In

on the part of any of the parties to this Agreement, anything in this Agreement
to the contrary notwithstanding.

 

SECTION

the possession of any Note or the production thereof in any proceeding relating
thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Administrative Agent shall
be brought in its own name as agent.

 

SECTION 14.13  Suit for Enforcement. If a Servicer

its discretion may (but shall have no duty or obligation so to proceed) proceed
to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Lenders under this
Agreement by a suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law or otherwise,
whether for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in
this Agreement or in aid of the execution of any power granted in this
Agreement or for the enforcement of any other legal, equitable or other remedy
as the Administrative Agent, being advised by counsel, shall deem

 

156

 

most effectual
to protect and enforce any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or the
Lenders.

 

SECTION
14.14  Indemnification of Agent. Each
Funding Group agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not
reimbursed by the Borrower), ratably according to the amount of the Funding
Group Limit of such Funding Group as a percentage of the aggregate Funding

or any other Transaction Document; provided, however, that no
Funding Group shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or

Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed
appropriate, made its own evaluation and decision to enter into this Agreement.
Each such Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without
reliance upon such Funding Agent, any of its Affiliates or any other Lender and
based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the
time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under
this Agreement.

paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or
presented by the proper party or parties.

within a
reasonable time to such Funding Agent of the costs, expenses or liabilities
likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the
opinion of such Funding Agent, not reasonably assured to such Funding Agent by

such Funding Agent shall have been advised by counsel that such action is
contrary to the terms of this Agreement or any Transaction Document or is
contrary to law.

enforceability of any security interest in any Borrower Collateral, or the

AerCap, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent and/or Lenders which are
authorized to provide such instruction in accordance with this Agreement or any
of the other Transaction Documents; provided, however, that the
foregoing shall not relieve such Funding Agent of its obligations to perform
its duties under this Agreement. Such Funding Agent shall not be accountable
for the use or application by the Borrower of any proceeds of the Advances, or
for the use or application of any funds paid to a Service Provider in respect
of the Leases or any other Aircraft Assets related to the Aircraft.

 

SECTION
14A.7  Agent May Own Notes. The

same rights as it would have if it were not such Funding Agent.

 

SECTION
14A.8  Resignation or Removal of Agent.

 

(a)           Subject to the provisions of
subsection (c) of this Section 14A.8, any Person acting as a Funding
Agent of a Funding Group may at any time resign as such Funding Agent under
this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents by giving thirty (30) days’
written notice thereof to the Borrower, the Service Providers and the
Administrative Agent. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Funding
Group Majority Lenders of such Funding Group (with approval of the Borrower,
the Service Providers and Administrative Agent, in each case not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall promptly appoint a successor Funding
Agent by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall
be delivered to the resigning Funding Agent and the other copy of which
instrument shall be delivered to the successor Funding Agent. If no successor
Funding Agent shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within
thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning
Funding Agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Funding Agent. The Borrower shall reimburse the
resigning Funding Agent, pursuant to the Flow of Funds hereof, for all expenses
which shall have been incurred by such resigning Funding Agent in accordance
with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents prior to the effective
date of resignation of such resigning Funding Agent.

 

(b)           If at any time such Funding Agent
shall be legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or
a receiver of such Funding Agent or of its property shall be appointed or any
public officer shall take charge or control of such Funding Agent or of its
property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or
liquidation, then the related Funding Group Majority Lenders shall remove such
Funding Agent. If such Funding Agent shall have been removed under the
authority of the immediately preceding sentence, such Funding Group Majority
Lenders (with approval of the Borrower, the Service Providers and
Administrative Agent, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed)
shall promptly appoint a successor Funding Agent by written instrument, in
duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Funding Agent
so removed and the other copy of which

 

160

 

instrument
shall be delivered to the successor Funding Agent. The Borrower shall reimburse
the removed Funding Agent pursuant to the Flow of Funds for all expenses which
shall have been incurred by such removed Funding Agent in accordance with this
Agreement and the Other Transaction Documents prior to the effective date of removal
of such removed Funding Agent.

 

(c)           Any resignation or removal of such
Funding Agent and appointment of a successor Agent pursuant to any of the
provisions of this Section 14A.8 shall not become effective until
acceptance of appointment by the successor agent as provided in Section
14A.9.

 

SECTION
14A.9  Successor Funding Agent. Any
successor Funding Agent appointed as provided in this Article XIVA shall
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Borrower, the Service Providers, the
Administrative Agent and to its predecessor Funding Agent an instrument
accepting such appointment under this Agreement, and thereupon the resignation
or removal of the predecessor Funding Agent shall become effective and such
successor Funding Agent, without any further act, deed or conveyance (except as
provided below), shall become fully vested with all the rights, power, duties
and obligations of its predecessor under this Agreement, with like effect as if
originally named as Funding Agent; but, on request of the Borrower, a Service
Provider, the Administrative Agent, or the successor Funding Agent, such
predecessor Funding Agent shall, upon payment of its expenses then unpaid,
execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Funding Agent
all of the rights, powers and trusts of the Funding Agent so ceasing to act,
and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Funding Agent all
property and money held by such Funding Agent so ceasing to act hereunder for
the benefit of the Lenders in its Funding Group. Upon request of any such
successor Funding Agent, the Borrower shall execute any and all instruments for
more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Funding
Agent all such rights, powers and trusts. The predecessor Funding Agent shall
deliver to the successor Funding Agent all documents and statements held by it
under this Agreement or any Transaction Document; and the predecessor Funding
Agent and the other parties to the Transaction Documents shall amend any
Transaction Document to make the successor Funding Agent the successor to the
predecessor Funding Agent thereunder; and the Borrower, the Service Providers,
the Administrative Agent and the predecessor Funding Agent shall execute and
deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required
for fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Funding Agent
all such rights, powers, duties and obligations. No successor Funding Agent
shall accept its appointment as provided in this Section 14A.9 unless at
the time of such acceptance such successor Funding Agent shall be eligible
under the provisions of Section 14A.10. Upon acceptance of appointment
by a successor Funding Agent as provided in this Section 14A.9, the
Borrower shall mail notice by first-class mail of the appointment of such
successor Funding Agent and the address of the successor Funding Agent’s
corporate trust office under this Agreement to all Lenders at their addresses
as shown in the Note Register or if no Note Register is required to be
maintained with respect to any Lender pursuant to Section 15.5(b), such
other address or such other address as shall be maintained for such Lender by
the applicable Funding Agent. If the Borrower fails to mail such notice within
ten (10) days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Funding Agent,
the successor Funding Agent shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense
of the Borrower.

 

161

 

SECTION 14A.10
Eligibility Requirements for Successor Agent. Any successor Funding
Agent under this Agreement shall be a corporation duly organized and validly
existing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation authorized under
such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and
surplus of at least $500,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by
federal or state authority. If such corporation publishes reports of condition
at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid
supervising or examining authority, then for the purpose of this Section
14A.10, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be
deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent
report of condition so published. In case at any time any successor Funding
Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section
14A.10, such successor Funding Agent shall resign immediately in the manner

corporate trust business of such Funding Agent, shall be the successor of such
Funding Agent under this Agreement, provided such corporation shall be eligible
under the provisions of Section 14A.10, without the execution or filing
of any instrument or any further act on the part of any of the parties to this
Agreement, anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding.

 

SECTION
14A.12  Funding Agent May Enforce
Claims Without Possession of Notes. Whether or not any Funding Agent has
requested a Note pursuant to Section 2.5, all rights of action and
claims under this Agreement or the Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by such
Funding Agent without the possession of any Note or the production thereof in
any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by such
Funding Agent shall be brought in its own name as agent for the applicable
Funding Group.

 

SECTION
14A.13  Indemnification of Agent. Each
Lender in a particular Funding Group agrees to indemnify its Funding Agent (to
the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower), ratably according to the amount of
the outstanding Advances of such Lender as a percentage of the aggregate
outstanding Advances of all Lenders in such Funding Group, from and against any
and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature
whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such
Funding Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any
other Transaction Document or any action taken or omitted by such Funding Agent
under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; provided, however,
that no such Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements resulting from such Funding Agent’s gross negligence
or willful misconduct.

 

SECTION
14A.14  Other Arrangements. No
provision contained in this Article XIVA shall, in any way, limit or

Agreement or any
separate agreement or arrangement between such Funding Agent and such Lender.

 

ARTICLE
XV

 

ASSIGNMENTS

 

SECTION
15.1  Assignments. The Borrower
may not assign its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein
without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Funding
Agent. The Lenders shall have the right to assign and/or participate their
respective Non-Conduit Lender Commitments and Advances with prior notice to the
Borrower, but without the consent of the Borrower; provided, however,
that, at any time prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, (a) any
assignee or participant shall not be an entity which, at the time of assignment
or participation, competes with AerCap in a material manner in the leasing of
commercial aircraft unless the Borrower has otherwise consented to such
assignee or participant (an assignee or participant meeting such criteria, an “Eligible
Assignee”), (b) the indemnities to which any such assignee or participant
shall be entitled under Section 6.2 or 6.3 hereof shall not be
greater at and as of the time of assignment or participation than the indemnity
to which the assignor or participant grantor would have been entitled under Section
6.2 or 6.3 hereof had such assignment or participation not occurred,
(c) any assignee shall be a Qualifying Lender, and (d) any assignor shall only
be released from its Non-Conduit Lender Commitments to the extent provided in
the immediately succeeding sentence. Upon the issuance of a Non-Conduit Lender
Commitment to provide a portion of the Class A Advances, Class B Advances or
Class C Advances by any assignee of such Non-Conduit Lender Commitment of a
Class A Lender, Class B Lender or Class C Lender, which assignee either (A) has
a long term debt rating of at least “A” from Standard & Poor’s and/or “A2”
from Moody’s, or a short term debt rating of at least “A-1” from Standard &
Poor’s and/or “P-1” from Moody’s, or (B) has otherwise been consented to by the
Borrower (with such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), such
Class A Lender, Class B Lender or Class C Lender shall be released from the
portion of its Non-Conduit Lender Commitment in an aggregate amount equal to
the Non-Conduit Lender Commitment of such assignee. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, UBSRESI shall have the right, at any time, to assign and/or
participate its Non-Conduit Lender Commitments and Advances with prior notice
to the Borrower, but without the consent of the Borrower, to any Affiliate of
UBSRESI that is a Qualifying Lender at the time of such assignment or
participation, and/or to any commercial paper conduit, that is a Qualifying
Lender at the time of such assignment or participation, and is administered by
any Affiliate thereof or administered by any other Person for the exclusive or
non-exclusive benefit of any Affiliate of UBSRESI, and UBSRESI shall be
released from the portion of its Non-Conduit Lender Commitment in an aggregate
amount equal to the Non-Conduit Lender Commitment of the applicable assignee. In
addition, any Lender or any of its Affiliates may pledge or assign any of its
rights under this Agreement and under the Transaction Documents to any Federal
Reserve Bank within the United States, or if a Qualifying Lender at the time of
such pledge or assignment, to any liquidity or credit support provider or any
commercial paper conduit collateral trustee without notice to or consent of the
Borrower or any Funding Agent. In the case of any Lender that is a fund that
invests in bank loans, such Lender may, without the consent of Borrower or the
Administrative Agent or any Funding Agent, collaterally assign or pledge all or

 

163

 

any portion of
its rights under this Agreement and under the Transaction Documents, to any
holder of, trustee for, or any other representative of holders of, obligations
owed or securities issued, by such fund, as security for such obligations or
securities, in each case provided that each such holder is a Qualifying Lender.
The parties hereto each acknowledge and agree that a Participant is neither an
assignee nor a participant for purposes of this Article XV.

 

SECTION
15.2  Documentation. The assignor
and the assignee involved in an assignment referred to in Section 15.1
shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and
Assumption, duly executed by each such party, and the assigning Lender shall
promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take
all further action, that the assignee may reasonably request, in order to
perfect, protect or more fully evidence the assignee’s right, title and
interest in, and to enable the assignee to exercise or enforce any rights
hereunder or under any applicable Note. The Administrative Agent shall promptly
deliver to the Borrower a copy of each Assignment and Assumption that it
receives pursuant to the terms of this Section 15.2.

 

SECTION
15.3  Rights of Assignee. The
respective assignee receiving such assignment shall have all of the rights of
such Lender hereunder and all references to the Lenders in Section 16.1
shall be deemed to apply to such assignee.

 

SECTION
15.4  Endorsement. Each Lender
authorizes the related Funding Agent to, and each Funding Agent agrees that it
shall, endorse any applicable Note to reflect any assignments made pursuant to
this Article XV or otherwise (but failure to endorse such Note shall not
affect the right of any Lender hereunder).

 

SECTION
15.5  Registration; Registration of
Transfer and Exchange.

 

(a) Each
Funding Agent shall maintain an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness
of the Borrower to each Lender in such Funding Agent’s Funding Group resulting
from each Advance made by such Lender hereunder, including the amounts of
principal and Yield payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.
The entries made in such accounts shall be conclusive and binding for all
purposes, absent manifest error. To the extent that any Funding Agent has not
requested a Note pursuant to Section 2.5, such Funding Agent shall keep
a register (the “Non-Note Register”) in which, subject to such
reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, such Funding Agent shall provide
for the registration of Advances and Non-Conduit Lender Commitments held by any
member of the Funding Group related to such Funding Agent and of any transfers
of such Advances and Non-Conduit Lender Commitments. Each Funding Agent is
hereby appointed “Non-Note Registrar” for the purpose of registering any
transfers of Advances and Non-Conduit Lender Commitments held by any member of
the Funding Group related to such Funding Agent as herein provided. The entries
made in the Non-Note Register by the Non-Note Registrar shall be conclusive and
binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

 

(b) To the
extent that any Funding Agent has requested a Note pursuant to Section 2.5,
such Funding Agent shall keep a register (the “Note Register”) in which,
subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, such Funding Agent
shall provide for the registration of Notes held by the Funding Group related
to such Funding Agent and of transfer of such Notes.

 

164

 

Each Funding
Agent is hereby appointed “Note Registrar” for the purpose of
registering any Notes and transfers of Notes held by the Funding Group related
to such Funding Agent as herein provided. The entries made in the Note Register
by the Note Registrar shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent
manifest error.

 

(c) With
respect to any Lender, the transfer of any commitment of any Lender and the
rights to principal of, and interest on, any such commitment shall not be
effective until such transfer is recorded on the Note Register or Non-Note
Register maintained by the applicable Funding Agent with respect to ownership of
such commitments prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor
with respect to such commitments shall remain owing to the transferor.

 

(d) Each
Person who has or who acquired a Note, any Advances and/or any Non-Conduit
Lender Commitment shall be deemed by the acceptance of acquisition thereof to
have agreed to be bound by the provisions of this Section 15.5. No Note,
Advances and/or Non-Conduit Lender Commitment may be transferred, and no
Funding Agent shall register the transfer of a Note, Advance and/or Non-Conduit
Lender Commitment, unless the proposed transferee shall have delivered to such
Funding Agent and the Administrative Agent either (i) evidence satisfactory to
it that the transfer of such Note, Advance and/or Non-Conduit Lender Commitment
is exempt from registration or qualification under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, and all applicable state securities laws and that the transfer does
not constitute a “prohibited transaction” under ERISA or (ii) an express
agreement by the proposed transferee to be bound by and to abide by the
provisions of this Section 15.5 and, if applicable, the restrictions
noted on the face of such Note.

 

(e) At the
option of the holder thereof, any Note may be exchanged for one or more new
Notes of any authorized denominations and of a like Class and aggregate
principal amount at an office or agency of the applicable Funding Agent. Whenever
any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Borrower shall execute and the
applicable Funding Agent shall authenticate and deliver the new Notes which the
holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

 

(f) Upon
surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at an office or agency of
the applicable Funding Agent, the Borrower shall, at the request of such
Funding Agent, execute and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or
transferees, one or more new Notes of any authorized denominations and of a
like Class and aggregate principal amount.

 

(g) All Notes
issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of any Note in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement shall be the valid obligations of the
Borrower, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under
this Agreement, as the Note(s) surrendered upon such registration of transfer
or exchange.

 

(h) Every Note
presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if
so required by the Borrower or the applicable Funding Agent) be fully endorsed,
or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to
the Note Registrar, duly executed by the holder thereof or his attorney duly
authorized in writing. Each such Note shall be accompanied by a statement
providing the name of the transferee and indicating whether the

 

165

 

transferee is
subject to income tax backup withholding requirements and whether the
transferee is the sole beneficial owner of such Notes.

 

(i) No service
charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, but
the Borrower may require payment from the transferee holder of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
with any registration of transfer of exchange of Notes, other than exchanges pursuant
to this Section 15.5.

 

(j) The
holders of the Notes shall be bound by the terms and conditions of this
Agreement.

 

SECTION 15.6  Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Notes.

 

(a) If any
mutilated Note is surrendered to the applicable Funding Agent, the Borrower
shall, at the request of such Funding Agent, execute and the applicable Funding
Agent shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Note of like
Class and tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously
outstanding.

 

(b) If there
shall be delivered to the Borrower and the applicable Funding Agent prior to
the payment of any Note (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction,
loss or theft of such Note and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be
required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless,
then, in the absence of notice to the Borrower or the applicable Funding Agent
that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Borrower
shall, at the request of such Funding Agent, execute and the applicable Funding
Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or
stolen Note, a new Note of like class, tenor and principal amount and bearing a
number not contemporaneously outstanding.

 

(c) Upon the
issuance of any new Note under this Section 15.6, the Borrower may
require the payment from the transferor holder of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and
any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the applicable Funding
Agent) connected therewith.

 

(d) Every new
Note issued pursuant to this Section 15.6 and in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement, in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Note
shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Borrower,
whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time
enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this
Agreement equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued
hereunder.

 

(e) The
provisions of this Section 15.6 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the
extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or
payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

 

SECTION
15.7  Persons Deemed Owners. The
Borrower, any Service Provider, the applicable Funding Agent, the
Administrative Agent and any agent of the Borrower, a Service Provider, the
applicable Funding Agent or the Administrative Agent may treat the holder of
any Note as the owner of such Note for all purposes whatsoever, whether or not
such Note may be overdue, and none of the Borrower, any Service Provider, the
applicable Funding Agent, the

 

166

 

Administrative
Agent and any agent of the Borrower, a Service Provider, the applicable Funding
Agent, or the Administrative Agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

 

SECTION
15.8  Cancellation. All Notes
surrendered for payment or registration of transfer or exchange shall be
delivered to the applicable Funding Agent, and shall be promptly canceled by it
and may be destroyed pursuant to the applicable Funding Agent’s securities
retention policies. The Borrower shall promptly deliver to the applicable Funding
Agent for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered
hereunder which the Borrower may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and
all Notes so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the applicable Funding
Agent. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes
canceled as provided in this Section 15.8, except as expressly permitted
by this Agreement.

(b) Electronic
Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may
(subject to Section 17.3(c)) be delivered or furnished by electronic
communication (including e mail and Internet or intranet websites); provided
that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to Article

Unless the
Administrative Agent or a Funding Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and
other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon
the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgment from the intended recipient (such as
by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or

provide to the Administrative Agent and each Funding Agent all information,
documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish to such Person

forth under its name on the signature pages hereof or at such other e-mail
address(es) provided to the Service Providers or the Borrower from time to time
or in such other form, including hard copy delivery thereof, as such Person

agrees to continue to provide the Communications to such Person in the manner
specified in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or in such other
form, including hard copy delivery thereof, as such Person shall require. Nothing
in this Section 17.3 shall prejudice the right of any party hereto to
give any notice or other communication pursuant to this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document in any other manner specified in this Agreement or any
other Transaction Document or as any such party shall require. Also, nothing in
this Section 17.3 shall be interpreted as requiring any Borrower Group
Member or the Servicer to provide copies of Leases in a manner that would
disclose Lease rentals thereon, although copies of Leases with rental redacted,
and other portfolio information may be provided.

 

Each of the
Borrower and the Service Providers further agrees that the Administrative Agent
and the Funding Agents may make the Communications available to the Lenders by
posting the Communications on Intralinks or a substantially similar electronic

and “as available.”  None of the
Administrative Agent or the Funding Agents warrant the accuracy or completeness
of the Communications, or the adequacy of the Platform and they expressly
disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the communications. No warranty
of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any
warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement
of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by
any of them in connection with the Communications or the Platform. In no event
shall any of them have any liability to the Borrower, any Service Provider, or
any of their Affiliates, any Lender or any other person for damages of any
kind, including direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential
damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising
out of any transmission of communications through the Internet, except to the
extent the liability of such person is found in a final non-appealable judgment
by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such person’s gross
negligence or willful misconduct.

AerFunding 1 Limited Hedging Policy

As Of April 26, 2006

 

Hedging
Methods/Objectives

 

•                  The Borrower
will use interest rate derivatives to hedge the interest rate risk (“Exposure”)
arising from the mis-match between its fixed and floating rate lease assets,
cash balances held in the Liquidity Reserve Account and Class C Reserve
Account, and Advances provided through this Credit Agreement.

 

Strategy

 

•                  The Exposure
will be calculated based on the current and projected outstanding principal
balances of Advances, the Borrower’s existing interest rate derivatives
portfolio, the Borrower’s cash balances held in the Liquidity Reserve Account
and Class C Reserve Account, and the maturity profile of the Borrower’s Lease
portfolio.

 

•                  At least 70% of
the Exposure (the “Hedge Requirement”) will be hedged through the use of
Eligible Hedge Agreements.

 

•                  If any Eligible
Hedge Agreement constituting interest rate caps are used, the spread above the
then “at-the-money” strike rate shall not exceed 1.50%. Eligible Hedge
Agreements constituting interest rate swaps will require the Borrower to pay a
fixed rate and receive a monthly floating rate, against the notional amount
stated therein.

 

•                  The Borrower
will evaluate monthly whether it is in compliance with the Hedge Requirement
and if its determination concludes that it is not in compliance, the Borrower
will promptly make adjustments to its portfolio of Eligible Hedge Agreements to
restore compliance.

 

•                  On behalf of the
Borrower, the Cash Manager will be obligated to assist the Borrower in
implementing and maintaining the Hedging Policy, pursuant to the terms of the
Cash Management Agreement and in compliance with this Credit Agreement.

 

Modification

 

If the
Borrower desires to amend the Hedging Policy, it may present the proposed
change in or replacement Hedging Policy to the Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent must approve the proposed change or replacement in order
for it to be adopted and become the Hedging Policy hereunder. Any proposed
modification not so approved shall not be given effect, and the existing
current Hedging Policy shall continue as the Hedging Policy for purposes of the
Credit Agreement.
