the first supplemental indenture, dated as of May 13, 2009 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). 

WHEREAS, the Company has heretofore executed and delivered the Base Indenture to provide for, among other things, the issuance from time to
time of the Company’s debt securities in one or more series as might be authorized under the Base Indenture; 
 WHEREAS, the Company
has heretofore executed and delivered the First Supplemental Indenture, pursuant to which the Company issued its 7.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2014 (the “Notes”) in the original aggregate principal amount of $172,500,000,
convertible under certain circumstances into cash and/or shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Company Common Stock”), at the Company’s option; 

WHEREAS, the Company has entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Merger
Agreement”), dated as of February 13, 2013, with AMR Corporation, pursuant to which the Company became a wholly-owned subsidiary of AAG (the “Merger”) upon the consummation of the merger (the

WHEREAS, Section 5.06 of the First Supplemental Indenture provides that upon the occurrence of any merger involving the Company as a
result of which holders of Company Common Stock shall be entitled to receive securities with respect to or in exchange for such Company Common Stock, then the successor entity shall execute with the Trustee a supplemental indenture to provide that
the Notes be convertible into the number of shares of merger consideration that the Noteholder would have received pursuant to the Merger if such Noteholder had converted its Notes into shares of Company Common Stock immediately prior to the closing
of such merger; 
 WHEREAS, AAG desires to fully and unconditionally guarantee all of the payment obligations of the Company under the Notes
and the Indenture so as to make available the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Act for shares of AAG Common Stock delivered
upon conversion of the Notes following the Merger; 

 WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 4.01 of the First Supplemental Indenture, the Company and the
Trustee may enter into indentures supplemental to the Indenture to, among other things, make any change (i) to add guarantees with respect to the Notes, (ii) that does not materially adversely affect the rights of any Noteholder, or
(iii) to execute and deliver a supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.06 of the First Supplemental Indenture; 

WHEREAS, in connection with the execution and delivery of this Second Supplemental Indenture, the Trustee has received an Officer’s

ARTICLE 3 
 AAG GUARANTEE 

Section 3.01. Guarantee. 

The Guarantor hereby unconditionally guarantees to each Noteholder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and
its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that: 

 (a) the principal of, premium, if any, on and interest, if any, on the Notes will be promptly
paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of, premium on, if any, and interest, if any, on, the Notes, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Company to the Noteholder or the
Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and 
 (b)
in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity,
by acceleration or otherwise. 
 Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason,
the Guarantor will be obligated to pay or perform the same immediately. The Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection. 

The Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of
the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Noteholder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or
any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. The Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or
bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Note Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations
contained in the Notes or this Indenture. 
 If any Noteholder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the
Company, the Guarantor or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or the Guarantor, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Noteholder, this Note Guarantee, to the extent
theretofore discharged, will be reinstated in full force and effect. 
 The Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of
subrogation in relation to the Noteholders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. The Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Noteholders
and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Section 3.02 of the First Supplemental Indenture for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay,
injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Section 3.02 of the First Supplemental
Indenture, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purpose of this Note Guarantee. 

Section 3.02. Limitation on Guarantor Liability. 

The Guarantor, and by its acceptance of this Note Guarantee, each Noteholder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties
that this Note Guarantee of the Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent

 
applicable to this Note Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Noteholders and the Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of the Guarantor will be
limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of the Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, result in the obligations of the Guarantor under the Note
Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. 
 Section 3.03. Execution. 

To evidence the Note Guarantee set forth in Section 3.01 hereof, this Second Supplemental Indenture will be executed on behalf of the
Guarantor by one of its Officers. 
 The Guarantor hereby agrees that the Note Guarantee set forth in Section 3.01 hereof will remain
in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of the Note Guarantee. 
 If an Officer whose
signature is on this Indenture no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note on which the Note Guarantee is endorsed, the Note Guarantee will be valid nevertheless. 

The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, will constitute due delivery of the Note Guarantee set
forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantor. 
 Section 3.04. Releases. 

Upon the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture in accordance with Article 11 of the Base Indenture (as amended by the First
Supplemental Indenture with respect to the Notes), the Guarantor will be released and relieved of any obligations under the Note Guarantee. 

ARTICLE 4 
 MISCELLANEOUS 

Section 4.01. Ratification of Indenture. 

The Indenture, as supplemented by this Second Supplemental Indenture, is in all respects ratified and confirmed, and this Second Supplemental
Indenture shall be deemed part of the Indenture in the manner and to the extent herein and therein provided.
