				Ladies and Gentlemen:

				Reference is made to the Administrative Services Agreement, dated as of October 2, 2007 (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Administrative Services Agreement”), by and among, inter alios, BABCOCK & BROWN AIR FUNDING I LIMITED, a limited liability company incorporated under the laws of Bermuda (the “Company”), FLY LEASING MANAGEMENT CO. LIMITED (formerly known as Babcock & Brown Air Management Co. Limited), in its capacity as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), DEUTSCHE BANK TRUST COMPANY AMERICAS, in its capacity as trustee and security trustee, and AMBAC ASSURANCE CORPORATION, a Wisconsin stock insurance company (the “Policy Provider”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein are used with the meanings assigned to them in the Administrative Services Agreement.

				In consideration for the services provided in connection with the Administrative Services Agreement and other valuable consideration the existence of which the parties hereto acknowledge, this Fee Rebate Side Letter sets forth certain amounts to be rebated by the Administrative Agent to the Company from time to time. Accordingly, the Administrative Agent hereby agrees with the Company, that, as soon as practicable following receipt by the Administrative Agent of the monthly installment of the Administration Fee on each Payment Date from and after the date hereof as set forth in Section 6.01 of the Administrative Services Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall pay to the Collections Account for the benefit of the Company, an amount equal to the difference (if positive) of (x) the amount of the Administration Fee actually received by the Administrative Agent on such Payment Date less (y) the Fee Rebate Amount (as defined below) (such amount, the “Administrative Agent Rebate”).

				For the purposes of this Fee Rebate Side Letter, “Fee Rebate Amount” shall mean an amount equal to $20,000 payable in arrears on each Payment Date (until the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent) for each Fee Period. The Fee Rebate Amount shall be adjusted on each anniversary of the Initial Closing Date for annual cost of living adjustments (based on the consumer price index for the home office of the Administrative Agent) not to exceed 5% in any given year.

				The Administrative Agent further agrees that, once paid, the Administrative Agent Rebate shall be nonrefundable. The Administrative Agent Rebate shall be payable in immediately available funds to the Company in U.S. dollars free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future applicable taxes or other amounts. 

				It is understood and agreed that this Fee Rebate Side Letter shall not constitute or give rise to any obligation to provide any financing; such an obligation will arise only to the extent provided in the Administrative Services Agreement. This Fee Rebate Side Letter (i) may not be amended or modified except by a written instrument executed by the parties hereto, (ii) shall remain in effect so long as the Administrative Services Agreement shall be in effect, (iii) shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York, (iv) shall be binding on, and inure to the benefit of, the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto and (v) may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which will be an original, but all of which will constitute but one and the same instrument.

				      (d)      agrees to pay all reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, all reasonable fees and disbursements of legal counsel), that may be paid or incurred by any Guaranteed Party in enforcing its rights against the Guarantor under this Guaranty, or collecting any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations from the Guarantor under this Guaranty.

The Guarantor hereby waives notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, and agrees that, in its capacity as guarantor hereunder, it shall not be required to consent to, or to receive any notice of, any supplement to or amendment of, or waiver or modification of the terms of, the Facility Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents that may be made or given as provided therein.

				8.    Consideration.   This Guaranty is being furnished to induce the Guaranteed Parties to contract with the Borrower as set forth in the Facility Agreement and the other Financing Documents.

				9.    No Waiver.

				10.  Unconditional Guaranty.   This Guaranty is an absolute, unconditional and continuing guarantee of payment and performance and not of collection. The Guarantor waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right to require that any right to take action against the Borrower be exhausted or that resort be made to any security prior to action being taken against the Guarantor hereunder.

				11.  Waivers, Etc. In the event that this Guaranty or any other Financing Document is terminated, rejected or disaffirmed as a result of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar proceedings with respect to the Borrower, the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder to the Guaranteed Parties shall continue to the same extent as if the same had not been so terminated, rejected or disaffirmed. The Guarantor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, all rights and benefits that might, in whole or in part, relieve it from the performance of its duties and obligations hereunder by reason of any proceeding as specified in the preceding sentence, and the Guarantor agrees that it shall be liable for all sums guaranteed, in respect of and without regard to, any modification, limitation or discharge of the liability of the Borrower that may result from any such proceedings and notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition issued in any such proceedings.

				      (g)      any assignment, transfer or other arrangement by which any relevant Lessee transfers its interests in or loses control of the use of the applicable Aircraft or any part thereof; or

				12.  Continuing Guarantee.   The Guarantor understands and agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be continuing, absolute and unconditional without regard to, and the Guarantor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any defense to, or right to seek a discharge of, its obligations hereunder with respect to:

				      (a)      the validity, legality, regularity or enforceability of any Financing Document, any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by any Guaranteed Party;

				      (b)      any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) that may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrower against any Guaranteed Party; or

				      (c)      any other circumstances whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Borrower or the Guarantor) that constitute, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Borrower or the Guaranteed Obligations, or of the Guarantor under this Guaranty, in bankruptcy or in any other instance.

				13.  No Subrogation.   Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by the Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of the Guarantor by any Guaranteed Party, the Guarantor shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of any Guaranteed Party against the Borrower or any Collateral, security or guarantee or right of set-off held by any Guaranteed Party for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, nor shall the Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any reimbursement from the Borrower in respect of payments made by the Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts and performance owing to each Guaranteed Party by the Borrower on account of the Guaranteed Obligations are paid and performed in full. If and to the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or similar proceedings, the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be automatically reinstated and the Guarantor agrees that it will reimburse such holders on demand for all reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, all fees and disbursements of counsel to the Guaranteed Parties) incurred by such holders in connection with such rescission or restoration.

				14.  Severability.   Any provision of this Guaranty that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof (as modified by the deletion of the prohibited or unenforceable portion), and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction, so long as this Guaranty as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the deletion of such portion of this Guaranty will not substantially impair the respective expectations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties.

				15.  Successors and Assigns.   This Guaranty shall be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Guarantor, provided that no transfer, assignment or delegation by the Guarantor without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent shall release the Guarantor from its liabilities hereunder.

				16.  Notices.   All notices, requests, directions, consents and other communications provided to the Guarantor shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by certified or registered mail, sent by email or sent by telecopy, as follows:

All sums payable by the Guarantor to any Qualified Person under this Guaranty shall be paid free and clear of all deductions or withholdings unless such deduction or withholding is required by applicable law. In the event of there being any such deduction or withholding or in the event that any Guaranteed Party shall incur any liability for Tax as a result of or by reference to any payment made to any Qualified Person pursuant to this Guaranty (other than, in each case, any Tax that would have been imposed whether made directly by the Borrower or under the Facility Agreement and not eligible to be grossed up or otherwise indemnified under the Facility Agreement), the Guarantor shall pay such additional amounts as shall be required to ensure that the net amount received and retained by such Guaranteed Party (after Tax) will equal the full amount which would have been received and retained by it had no such deduction or withholding been made and/or no such liability for Tax been incurred. As soon as practicable after any payment of any amount of withholding Tax by the Guarantor to a Governmental Authority, the Guarantor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

				18.  Set-Off.   The Guarantor hereby authorizes each Guaranteed Party, at any time after a sum has become due and payable by the Guarantor under this Guaranty, to apply any sum or credit balance to which the Guarantor may be entitled hereunder or under any other Financing Document against any amounts which are due and payable by the Guarantor hereunder or under any other Financing Document but at the relevant time remain unpaid.

				19.  Amendments.   Subject to Section 6, neither this Guaranty, nor any of the terms and conditions of this Guaranty, shall be amended or supplemented, or any provision of this Guaranty waived, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

				20.  Governing Law.   This Guaranty and any claims, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Guaranty and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York.

				21.  Submission to Jurisdiction.   The Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Administrative Agent, the Security Trustee, any Lender or any Related Party of the foregoing in any way relating to this Guaranty or the transactions relating hereto, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and the Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in such federal court. The Guarantor agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Guaranty shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Security Trustee or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Guaranty against the Guarantor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

				22.  Process Agent.   The Guarantor hereby agrees that service of all writs, process and summonses in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in the State of New York may be made upon BBAM US LP, presently located at 126 East 56th Street, Suite 2610, New York, New York 10022 (the “Process Agent”), and the Guarantor hereby confirms and agrees that the Process Agent has been duly and irrevocably appointed as its agent and true and lawful attorney in fact in its name, place and stead to accept such service of any and all such writs, process and summonses, and agrees that the failure of the Process Agent to give any notice of any such 

			

				

			

				6

			

 

	

				service of process to the Guarantor shall not impair or affect the validity of such service or of any judgment based thereon. The Guarantor hereby further irrevocably consents to the service of process in any suit, action or proceeding in such courts by the mailing thereof by the Administrative Agent, the Security Trustee or any Lender by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, at its address set forth beneath its signature hereto.

				23.  Waiver of Venue.   The Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty brought in court referred to in Section 20. The Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

				24.  WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.   THE GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).

				25.  No Immunity.   To the extent that the Guarantor may be or become entitled, in any jurisdiction in which judicial proceedings may at any time be commenced with respect to this Guaranty, to claim for itself or its properties or revenues any immunity from suit, court jurisdiction, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of a judgment, execution of a judgment or from any other legal process or remedy relating to its obligations under this Guaranty, and to the extent that in any such jurisdiction there may be attributed such an immunity (whether or not claimed), the Guarantor hereby irrevocably agrees not to claim and hereby irrevocably waives such immunity to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of such jurisdiction.

				26.  No Fiduciary Duty.   The Administrative Agent, the Security Trustee, each Lender and their respective Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Guarantor, its stockholders and/or its affiliates. The Guarantor agrees that nothing in the Guaranty, the other Financing Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and the Guarantor, its stockholders or its affiliates. The Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that (i) the transactions contemplated by this Guaranty and the other Financing Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Guarantor, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Guarantor, its stockholders or its affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise the Guarantor, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to the Guarantor except the obligations expressly set forth in the Guaranty and the other Financing Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of the Guarantor, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person. The Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. The Guarantor agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Guarantor, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.
