               Company is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary
               corporate action on the part of the Company, do not require any
               stockholder approval or approval or consent of any trustee or
               holder of any indebtedness or obligations of the Company, except
               such as have been duly obtained and are in full force and effect,

               this Agreement and the other Operative Documents to which it is a
               party, nor the consummation by the Company of any of the
               transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, requires the
               authorization, consent or approval of, the giving of notice to,
               the filing or registration with or the taking of any other action
               in respect of, the Department of Transportation, the FAA or any
               other federal or state governmental authority or agency, except
               for (i) the registration of the issuance and sale of the Pass
               Through Certificates under the Securities Act of 1933, as

               limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or
               other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally
               and by general principles of equity and except, in the case of
               the Indenture, as limited by applicable laws that may affect the
               remedies provided in the Indenture, which laws, however, do not
               make the remedies provided in the Indenture inadequate for the
               practical realization of the rights and benefits intended to be
               provided thereby.

               interest in the Aircraft created under the Indenture in favor of
               the Loan Trustee as against the Company and any third parties in
               any applicable jurisdiction in the United States.

               controlled by an investment company within the meaning of the

<PAGE>

                    (iv) any Claim to the extent such Claim is attributable to
               the noncompliance by such Indemnitee or such Indemnitee's Related
               Indemnitee Group with any of the terms of, or any
               misrepresentation by an Indemnitee or its Related Indemnitee
               Group contained in, this Agreement, any other Operative Document

               other disposition during the occurrence and continuation of an
               Event of Default shall not be subject to indemnification unless
               it is made in accordance with the Indenture and applicable law)
               of any Equipment Note or Pass Through Certificate, all or any
               part of such Indemnitee's interest in the Operative Documents or
               the Pass Through Documents or any interest in the Collateral or
               any similar security;

                    (vii) any Claim to the extent such Claim is attributable to
               (A) a failure on the part of the Loan Trustee to distribute in
               accordance with this Agreement or the Indenture any amounts
               received and distributable by it hereunder or thereunder, (B) a
               failure on the part of the Subordination Agent to distribute in
               accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement any amounts received
               and distributable by it thereunder or (C) a failure on the part
               of any Pass Through Trustee to distribute in accordance with the
               Pass Through Trust Agreement to which it is a party any amounts
               received and distributable by it thereunder;

                    (viii) any Claim to the extent such Claim is attributable to
               the authorization or giving or withholding of any future
               amendments, supplements, waivers or consents with respect to any
               Operative Document or any Pass Through Document, other than such
               as have been requested by the Company or that occur as the result
               of an Event of Default, or such as are expressly required or
               contemplated by the provisions of the Operative Documents or the
               Pass Through Documents;

                    (ix) any Claim to the extent such Claim is payable or borne
               by (a) the Company pursuant to any indemnification, compensation
               or reimbursement provision of any other Operative Document or any
               Pass Through Document or

                                       12

                           AA-Boeing EETC-Owned Aircraft Participation Agreement
<PAGE>

               (b) a Person other than the Company pursuant to any provision of
               any Operative Document or any Pass Through Document;

                    (x) any Claim to the extent such Claim is an ordinary and
               usual operating or overhead expense;

                    (xi) any Claim to the extent such Claim is incurred by or
               asserted as a result of any "prohibited transaction" within the
               meaning of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code; and

                    (xii) any Claim to the extent such Claim is attributable to
               one or more of the other aircraft financed through the offering
               of Pass Through Certificates (in the event of doubt, any Claim
               shall be allocated between the Aircraft and such other aircraft
               in the same proportion that the then outstanding Equipment Notes
               bear to the then outstanding equipment notes issued with respect
               to the other aircraft and held by the Pass Through Trustees).

                  (e) Insured Claims. In the case of any Claim indemnified by
the Company hereunder that is covered by a policy of insurance maintained by the
Company, each Indemnitee agrees to cooperate, at the Company's expense, with the
insurers in the exercise of their rights to investigate, defend or compromise
such Claim.

                  (f) Claims Procedure. An Indemnitee shall promptly notify the
Company of any Claim as to which indemnification is sought; provided that the
failure to provide such prompt notice shall not release the Company from any of
its obligations to indemnify hereunder, except to the extent that the Company is
prejudiced by such failure or the Company's indemnification obligations are
increased as a result of such failure. Such Indemnitee shall promptly submit to
the Company all additional information in such Indemnitee's possession to
substantiate such request for payment to the Company as the Company shall
reasonably request. Subject to the rights of insurers under policies of
insurance maintained by the Company, the Company shall have the right, at its
sole cost and expense, to investigate, and the right in its sole discretion to
defend or compromise, any Claim for which indemnification is sought under this
Section 4.02, and, at the Company's expense, the Indemnitee shall cooperate with
all reasonable requests of the Company in connection therewith. Such Indemnitee
shall not enter into a settlement or other compromise with respect to any Claim
without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless such Indemnitee waives its right to be
indemnified with respect to such Claim under this Section 4.02. Where the
Company or the insurers under a policy of insurance maintained by the Company
undertake the defense of an Indemnitee with respect to a Claim, no additional
legal fees or expenses of such Indemnitee in connection with the defense of such
Claim shall be indemnified hereunder unless such fees or expenses were incurred
at the written request of the Company or such insurers. Subject to the
requirements of any

                                       13

                           AA-Boeing EETC-Owned Aircraft Participation Agreement
<PAGE>

policy of insurance, an Indemnitee may participate at its own expense in any
judicial proceeding controlled by the Company pursuant to the preceding
provisions; provided that such party's participation does not, in the opinion of
the counsel appointed by the Company or its insurers to conduct such
proceedings, interfere with such control; and such participation shall not
constitute a waiver of the indemnification provided in this Section 4.02.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not
under any circumstances be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one
counsel for all Indemnitees.

                  (g) Subrogation. To the extent that a Claim indemnified by the
Company under this Section 4.02 is in fact paid in full by the Company or an
insurer under a policy of insurance maintained by the Company, the Company or
such insurer, as the case may be, shall, without any further action, be
subrogated to the rights and remedies of the Indemnitee on whose behalf such
Claim was paid with respect to the transaction or event giving rise to such
Claim. Such Indemnitee shall give such further assurances or agreements and
shall cooperate with the Company or such insurer, as the case may be, to permit
the Company or such insurer to pursue such rights and remedies, if any, to the
extent reasonably requested by the Company. So long as no Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, if an Indemnitee receives any payment from any
party other than the Company or its insurers, in whole or in part, with respect
to any Claim paid by the Company or its insurers hereunder, it shall promptly
pay over to the Company the amount received (but not an amount in excess of the
amount the Company or any of its insurers has paid in respect of such Claim).
Any amount referred to in the preceding sentence that is payable to the Company
shall not be paid to the Company, or, if it has been previously paid directly to
the Company, shall not be retained by the Company, if at the time of such
payment an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, but shall be
paid to and held by the Loan Trustee as security for the obligations of the
Company under this Agreement, the Indenture and the other Operative Documents,
and, if the Company agrees, shall be applied against the Company's obligations
hereunder and thereunder when and as they become due and payable and, at such
time as there shall not be continuing any such Event of Default, such amount, to
the extent not previously so applied against the Company's obligations, shall be
paid to the Company; provided that if any such amount has been so held by the
Loan Trustee as security for more than 90 days after any such Event of Default
shall have occurred, during which period (i) the Loan Trustee shall not have
been limited by operation of law or otherwise from exercising remedies under the
Indenture and (ii) the Loan Trustee shall not have exercised any remedy
available to it under Section 4.02 of the Indenture, then such amount, to the
extent not previously so applied against the Company's payment obligations,
shall be paid to the Company.

                  (h) No Guaranty. Nothing set forth in this Section 4.02 shall
constitute a guarantee by the Company that the Aircraft shall at any time have
any particular value, useful life or residual value.

                                       14

                           AA-Boeing EETC-Owned Aircraft Participation Agreement
<PAGE>

                  (i) Payments; Interest. Any amount payable to any Indemnitee
pursuant to this Section 4.02 shall be paid within 30 days after receipt of a
written demand therefor from such Indemnitee accompanied by a written statement
describing in reasonable detail the Claims that are the subject of and basis for
such indemnity and the computation of the amount payable. Any payments made
pursuant to this Section 4.02 directly to an Indemnitee or to the Company, as
the case may be, shall be made in immediately available funds at such bank or to
such account as is specified by the payee in written directions to the payor or,
if no such directions shall have been given, by check of the payor payable to
the order of the payee and mailed to the payee by certified mail, return receipt
requested, postage prepaid to its address referred to in Section 7.01. To the
extent permitted by applicable law, interest at the Past Due Rate shall be paid,
on demand, on any amount or indemnity not paid when due pursuant to this Section
4.02 until the same shall be paid. Such interest shall be paid in the same
manner as the unpaid amount in respect of which such interest is due.

               obligations or limit any rights of the Company in respect of the
               transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents.

                    (b) The Company will cause the Indenture (with the Indenture
               Supplement covering the Aircraft attached) to be promptly filed
               and recorded, or filed for recording, with the FAA to the extent

                         (i) the Person formed by such consolidation or into
                    which the Company is merged or the Person that acquires by
                    conveyance, transfer or lease substantially all of the
                    assets of the Company as an entirety shall, if and to the
                    extent required under Section 1110 in order that the Loan

                    Air Carrier and shall execute and deliver to the Loan
                    Trustee an agreement containing the assumption by such

                    mentioned in clause (i) above comply with this Section
                    6.02(e) and that all conditions precedent herein provided

                    referred to in clause (ii) above and may rely, as to factual
                    matters, on a certificate of an officer of the Company) and,
                    in the case of such opinion, that such assumption agreement
                    has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such
                    successor Person and is enforceable against such successor
                    Person in accordance with its terms, except as the same may
                    be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
                    moratorium or other similar laws affecting the rights of
                    creditors generally and by general principles of equity.

                    Upon any consolidation or merger, or any conveyance,
transfer or lease of substantially all of the assets of the Company as an
entirety in accordance with this Section 6.02(e), the successor Person formed by
such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or to which such
conveyance, transfer or lease is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for,
and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Agreement and
the other Operative Documents with the same effect as if such successor Person
had been named as the Company herein.

                    (f) The Company shall, for as long as and to the extent
               required under Section 1110 in order that the Loan Trustee shall
               be entitled to any of the benefits of Section 1110 with respect
               to the Aircraft, remain a Certificated Air Carrier.

                    (g) The Company shall not issue Series E Equipment Notes
               pursuant to the Indenture, unless it shall have received Ratings
               Confirmation (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement). If
               Series E Equipment Notes are initially issued to other than the
               Pass Through Trustee for the Class E Certificates, the Company
               will cause such Series E Equipment Notes to be subject to the
               provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement that allow the
               "Controlling Party" (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement),
               during the continuance of an "Indenture Event of Default" (as
               defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), to direct the Loan
               Trustee in taking action under the Indenture.

purposes and in all cases and as to all property specified in paragraphs (1)
through (5) inclusive above, subject to the terms and provisions set forth in
this Indenture.

         It is expressly agreed that notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, the Company shall remain liable under the Purchase Agreement to
perform all of its obligations thereunder, and, except to the extent expressly
provided in any Operative Document, none of the Loan Trustee, any Noteholders or
any Indenture Indemnitee shall be required or obligated in any manner to perform
or fulfill any obligations of the Company under or pursuant to any thereof, or
to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by
it, or present or file any claim or take any action to collect or enforce the
payment of any amount that may have been assigned to it or to which it may be
entitled at any time or times.

         Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (but without in any way
releasing the Company from any of its duties or obligations under the Purchase
Agreement), the Loan Trustee, the Noteholders and the Indenture Indemnitees
confirm for the benefit of the Manufacturer that in exercising any rights under
the Warranty Rights, or in making any claim with respect to the Aircraft or
other goods and services delivered or to be delivered pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement relating to the
Warranty Rights, including, without limitation, the warranty disclaimer
provisions for the benefit of the Manufacturer, shall apply to and be binding
upon the Loan Trustee, the Noteholders and the Indenture Indemnitees to the same
extent as the Company. The Company hereby directs the Manufacturer, so long as
an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to pay all amounts,
if any, payable to the Company pursuant to the Warranty Rights directly to the
Loan Trustee to be held and

                                      3

applied as provided herein. Nothing contained herein shall subject the
Manufacturer to any liability to which it would not otherwise be subject under
the Purchase Agreement or modify in any respect the contract rights of the
Manufacturer thereunder except as provided in the Manufacturer's Consent.

         The Company does hereby constitute the Loan Trustee the true and lawful
attorney of the Company (which appointment is coupled with an interest) with
full power (in the name of the Company or otherwise) to ask, require, demand and
receive any and all monies and claims for monies (in each case including
insurance and requisition proceeds) due and to become due to the Company under
or arising out of the Purchase Agreement (to the extent assigned hereby), and
all other property which now or hereafter constitutes part of the Collateral, to
endorse any checks or other instruments or orders in connection therewith and to
file any claims or to take any action or to institute any proceedings which the
Loan Trustee may deem to be necessary or advisable in the premises; provided
that the Loan Trustee shall not exercise any such rights except during the
continuance of an Event of Default. The Company agrees that promptly upon
receipt thereof, to the extent required by the Operative Documents, it will
transfer to the Loan Trustee any and all monies from time to time received by
the Company constituting part of the Collateral, for distribution by the Loan
Trustee pursuant to this Indenture.

         The Company does hereby warrant and represent that it has not sold,
assigned or pledged, and hereby covenants and agrees that it will not sell,
assign or pledge, so long as this Indenture shall remain in effect and the Lien
hereof shall not have been released pursuant to the provisions hereof, any of
its estate, right, title or interest hereby assigned, to any Person other than
the Loan Trustee, except as otherwise provided in or permitted by any Operative
Document.

         The Company agrees that at any time and from time to time, upon the
written request of the Loan Trustee, the Company shall promptly and duly execute
and deliver or cause to be duly executed and delivered any and all such further
instruments and documents as the Loan Trustee may reasonably deem necessary to
perfect, preserve or protect the mortgage, security interests and assignments
created or intended to be created hereby or to obtain for the Loan Trustee the
full benefit of the assignment hereunder and of the rights and powers herein
granted, provided that any instrument or other document so executed by the
Company will not expand any obligations or limit any rights of the Company in
respect of the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents.

         IT IS HEREBY COVENANTED AND AGREED by and between the parties hereto as
follows:

         or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with its terms.
         All capitalized terms used in this Equipment Note and not defined
         herein, unless the context otherwise requires, shall have the
         respective meanings set forth or incorporated by reference, and shall
         be construed and interpreted in the manner described, in the Indenture.

                  This Equipment Note shall bear interest, payable on demand, at
         the Past Due Rate (and not the Debt Rate) (calculated on the basis of a
         year of 360 days comprised of twelve 30-day months) on any principal
         amount and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) Make-Whole
         Amount, if any, interest and any other amounts payable hereunder not
         paid when due for any period during which the same shall be overdue, in
         each case for the period the same is overdue. Amounts shall be overdue
         if not paid in the manner provided herein or in the Indenture when due
         (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise).

                  There shall be maintained an Equipment Note Register for the
         purpose of registering transfers and exchanges of Equipment Notes at
         the Corporate Trust Office of the Loan Trustee, or at the office of any
         successor trustee, in the manner provided in Section 2.07 of the
         Indenture.

                  The principal amount and interest and other amounts due
         hereunder shall be payable in Dollars in immediately available funds at
         the Corporate Trust Office of the Loan Trustee, or as otherwise
         provided in the Indenture. The Company shall not have any
         responsibility for the distribution of any such payment to the
         Noteholder of this Equipment Note. Each such payment shall be made on
         the date such payment is due and without any presentment or surrender
         of this Equipment Note, except that in the case of any final payment
         with respect to this Equipment Note, the Equipment Note shall be
         surrendered to the Loan Trustee for cancellation.

                  The holder hereof, by its acceptance of this Equipment Note,
         agrees that, except as provided in the Indenture, including the
         subordination provisions referred to below, each payment of an
         installment of principal amount, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and
         interest received by it hereunder shall be applied: first, to the
         payment of accrued interest on this Equipment Note (as well as any
         interest on any overdue principal amount, and, to the extent permitted
         by law, any overdue Make-Whole Amount, if any, any overdue interest and
         other overdue amounts hereunder) to the date of such payment; second,
         to the payment of Make-Whole Amount, if any, and third, to the payment
         of the principal amount of this Equipment Note (or portion hereof) then
         due.

                  This Equipment Note is one of the Equipment Notes referred to
         in the Indenture which have been or are to be issued by the Company
         pursuant to the

                                       7

         terms of the Indenture. The Collateral is held by the Loan Trustee as
         security, in part, for the Equipment Notes. The provisions of this
         Equipment Note are subject to the Indenture and the Participation
         Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Indenture and the
         Participation Agreement for a complete statement of the rights and
         obligations of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security
         for, this Equipment Note and the rights and obligations of the holders
         of, and the nature and extent of the security for, any other Equipment
         Notes executed and delivered under the Indenture, to all of which terms
         and conditions in the Indenture and the Participation Agreement each
         holder hereof agrees by its acceptance of this Equipment Note.

                  As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain
         limitations therein set forth, this Equipment Note is exchangeable for
         a like aggregate principal amount of Equipment Notes of the same Series
         of different authorized denominations, as requested by the holder
         surrendering the same. Prior to the due presentment for registration of
         transfer of this Equipment Note, the Company and the Loan Trustee shall
         deem and treat the Person in whose name this Equipment Note is
         registered on the Equipment Note Register as the absolute owner and
         holder hereof for the purpose of receiving all amounts payable with
         respect to this Equipment Note and for all purposes, and neither of the
         Company nor the Loan Trustee shall be affected by notice to the
         contrary.

                  This Equipment Note is subject to redemption as provided in
         Sections 2.10 and 2.11 of the Indenture but not otherwise.

         Section 2.02. Issuance and Terms of Equipment Notes. The Equipment
Notes shall be dated the date of issuance thereof, shall be issued in (a) four

of Series A-1 Equipment Notes, Series A-2 Equipment Notes, Series B Equipment
Notes, Series C Equipment Notes and, if issued, Series E Equipment Notes and (b)

Debt Rates specified in Schedule I (or, in the case of a Series E Equipment Note
issued after the Closing Date, as specified in an amendment to this Indenture).
On the Closing Date, each Series A-1 Equipment Note, Series A-2 Equipment Note,

referred to in Schedule II. Subject to complying with the conditions set forth
in Section 6.02(g) of the Participation Agreement, the Company shall have the
option to issue Series E Equipment Notes at or after the Closing Date. The
Equipment Notes shall be issued in registered form only. The Equipment Notes
shall be issued in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof,
except that one Equipment Note of each Series may be in an amount that is not an
integral multiple of $1,000.

         Each Equipment Note shall bear interest at the Debt Rate (calculated on
the basis of a year of 360 days comprised of twelve 30-day months), payable in
arrears on each Payment Date on the unpaid principal amount thereof from time to
time outstanding until such principal amount is paid in full, as further
provided in the form of Equipment Note set forth in Section 2.01. The principal
amount of each Series A-1 Equipment Note, Series B Equipment Note and Series C
Equipment Note shall be payable in installments on the Payment Dates set forth
in Schedule I to such Equipment Note, each such installment to be in an amount
computed by multiplying the original principal amount of such Equipment Note by
the percentage set forth in Schedule I hereto, the applicable portion of which
shall be attached as Schedule I to such Equipment Note, opposite the Payment
Date on which such installment is due. The principal amount of each Series A-2
Equipment Note shall be due in a single payment on May 23, 2011. Each Series E
Equipment Note shall be payable in installments or in a single payment as set
forth in an amendment to this Indenture, and if payable in installments, such
installments shall be calculated as set forth in the third preceding sentence.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the final payment made under each Series A-1
Equipment Note, Series B Equipment Note and Series C Equipment Note shall be in
an amount sufficient to discharge in full the unpaid principal amount and all
accrued and unpaid interest on, and any other amounts due under, such Equipment
Note. Each Equipment Note shall bear interest, payable on demand, at the Past
Due Rate (and not at the Debt Rate) (calculated on the basis of a year of 360
days comprised of twelve 30-day months) on any principal amount and (to the
extent permitted by applicable law) Make-Whole Amount, if any, interest and any
other amounts payable thereunder not paid when due for any period during which
the same shall be overdue, in each case for the period the same is overdue.
Amounts shall be overdue under an Equipment Note if not paid in the manner
provided therein or in this Indenture when due (whether at stated maturity, by
acceleration or otherwise). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, if any date on which a payment hereunder or under any Equipment Note
becomes due and payable is not a Business Day, then such payment shall not be
made on such scheduled date but shall be made on the next succeeding Business
Day with the same force and effect as if made on such scheduled date, and if
such payment is made on such next succeeding Business Day, no interest shall
accrue on the amount of such payment from and after such scheduled date.

         The Equipment Notes shall be executed on behalf of the Company by the
manual or facsimile signature of one of its authorized officers. Equipment Notes
bearing the

                                       11
<PAGE>

signatures of individuals who were at the time of execution the proper officers
of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or
any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and
delivery of such Equipment Notes or did not hold such offices at the respective
dates of such Equipment Notes. No Equipment Note shall be secured by or entitled
to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purposes
unless there appears on such Equipment Note a certificate of authentication in
the form provided herein executed by the Loan Trustee by the manual signature of
one of its authorized officers, and such certificate upon any Equipment Notes
shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Equipment Note
has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

         Section 2.03. Method of Payment. The principal amount of, interest on,
Make-Whole Amount, if any, and, except to the extent expressly provided herein,
all other amounts due to any Noteholder under each Equipment Note or otherwise
payable hereunder shall be payable by the Company in Dollars by wire transfer of
immediately available funds not later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on
the due date of payment to the Loan Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office for
distribution among the Noteholders in the manner provided herein. The Company
shall not have any responsibility for the distribution of such payment to any
Noteholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision in any Equipment Note
to the contrary, the Loan Trustee will use reasonable efforts to pay or cause to
be paid, if so directed in writing by any Noteholder (with a copy to the
Company), all amounts paid by the Company hereunder and under such Noteholder's
Equipment Note or Equipment Notes to such Noteholder or a nominee therefor
(including all amounts distributed pursuant to Article III) by transferring, or
causing to be transferred, by wire transfer of immediately available funds in
Dollars, prior to 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the due date of payment, to
an account maintained by such Noteholder with a bank located in the continental
United States the amount to be distributed to such Noteholder, for credit to the
account of such Noteholder maintained at such bank; provided that, in the event
the Equipment Notes are not held by the Subordination Agent on behalf of the
Pass Through Trustees, the Loan Trustee may at its option pay such amounts by
check mailed to the Noteholder's address as it appears on the Equipment Note
Register. If, after its receipt of funds at the place and prior to the time
specified above in the immediately preceding sentence, the Loan Trustee shall
fail (other than as a result of a failure of the Noteholder to provide it with
wire transfer instructions) to make any such payment required to be paid by wire
transfer as provided in the immediately preceding sentence on the Business Day
it receives such funds, the Loan Trustee, in its individual capacity and not as
trustee, agrees to compensate such Noteholders for loss of use of funds at the
Federal Funds Rate until such payment is made and the Loan Trustee shall be
entitled to any interest earned on such funds until such payment is made. Any
payment made hereunder shall be made without any presentment or surrender of any
Equipment Note, except that, in the case of the final payment in respect of any
Equipment Note, such Equipment Note shall be surrendered to the Loan Trustee for
cancellation. Notwithstanding any other provision of

                                       12
<PAGE>

this Indenture to the contrary, the Loan Trustee shall not be required to make,
or cause to be made, wire transfers as aforesaid prior to the first Business Day
on which it is practicable for the Loan Trustee to do so in view of the time of
day when the funds to be so transferred were received by it if such funds were
received after 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) at the place of payment.

         Section 2.04. Withholding Taxes. The Loan Trustee shall exclude and
withhold at the appropriate rate from each payment of principal amount of,
interest on, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and other amounts due hereunder or under
each Equipment Note (which exclusion and withholding shall constitute payment of
such amounts payable hereunder or in respect of such Equipment Notes, as
applicable) any and all withholding taxes applicable thereto as required by law.
The Loan Trustee agrees to act as such withholding agent and, in connection
therewith, whenever any present or future taxes or similar charges are required
to be withheld with respect to any amounts payable hereunder or in respect of
the Equipment Notes, to withhold such amounts (which withholding shall
constitute payment of such amounts payable hereunder or in respect of such
Equipment Notes, as applicable) and timely pay the same to the appropriate
authority in the name of and on behalf of the Noteholders, that it will file any
necessary withholding tax returns or statements when due, and that as promptly
as possible after the payment thereof it will deliver to each Noteholder (with a
copy to the Company) appropriate documentation showing the payment thereof,
together with such additional documentary evidence as any such Noteholder may
reasonably request from time to time. The Loan Trustee agrees to file any other
information reports as it may be required to file under United States law.

         Section 2.05. Application of Payments. Subject always to Section 2.13
and except as otherwise provided in Article III, in the case of each Equipment
Note, each payment of an installment of principal amount, Make-Whole Amount, if
any, and interest paid thereon shall be applied:

                  first, to the payment of accrued interest on such Equipment
         Note (as well as any interest on any overdue principal amount and (to
         the extent permitted by law) any overdue Make-Whole Amount, if any, any
         overdue interest and any other overdue amounts thereunder) to the date
         of such payment;

                  second, to the payment of Make-Whole Amount, if any; and

                  third, to the payment of principal amount of such Equipment
         Note (or portion thereof) then due thereunder.

         Section 2.06. Termination of Interest in Collateral. No Noteholder or
Indenture Indemnitee shall, as such, have any further interest in, or other
right with respect to, the Collateral when and if the principal amount of,
Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest

                                       13
<PAGE>

(including interest on any overdue amounts) on and all other amounts due under
all Equipment Notes held by such Noteholder and all other sums then payable to
such Noteholder or Indenture Indemnitee, as the case may be, hereunder and under
the Participation Agreement by the Company (collectively, "Secured Obligations")
shall have been paid in full.

         Section 2.07. Registration, Transfer and Exchange of Equipment Notes.
The Loan Trustee shall keep a register or registers (the "Equipment Note
Register") in which the Loan Trustee shall provide for the registration of
Equipment Notes and the registration of transfers of Equipment Notes. No such
transfer shall be given effect unless and until registration hereunder shall
have occurred. The Equipment Note Register shall be kept at the Corporate Trust
Office of the Loan Trustee. The Loan Trustee is hereby appointed "Equipment Note
Registrar" for the purpose of registering Equipment Notes and transfers of
Equipment Notes as herein provided. A holder of any Equipment Note intending to
exchange or transfer such Equipment Note shall surrender such Equipment Note to
the Loan Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office, together with a written request
from the registered holder thereof for the issuance of a new Equipment Note of
the same Series, specifying, in the case of a surrender for transfer, the name
and address of the new holder or holders. Upon surrender for registration of
transfer of any Equipment Note and subject to satisfaction of Section 2.09, the
Company shall execute, and the Loan Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in
the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Equipment
Notes of a like aggregate principal amount and of the same Series. At the option
of the Noteholder, Equipment Notes may be exchanged for other Equipment Notes of
the same Series of any authorized denominations of a like aggregate principal
amount, upon surrender of the Equipment Notes to be exchanged to the Loan
Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office. Whenever any Equipment Notes are so
surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Loan Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, the Equipment Notes which the Noteholder making the
exchange is entitled to receive. All Equipment Notes issued upon any
registration of transfer or exchange of Equipment Notes (whether under this
Section 2.07 or under Section 2.08 or otherwise under this Indenture) shall be
the valid obligations of the Company evidencing the same respective obligations,
and entitled to the same security and benefits under this Indenture, as the
Equipment Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.
Every Equipment Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer,
shall be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in
form satisfactory to the Loan Trustee, duly executed by the Noteholder or such
Noteholder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and the Loan Trustee shall
require evidence satisfactory to it as to the compliance of any such transfer
with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the securities laws of any
applicable state or jurisdiction. The Loan Trustee shall make a notation on each
new Equipment Note of the amount of all payments of principal amount previously
made on the old Equipment Note or Equipment Notes with respect to which such new
Equipment Note is issued and the date to which interest on such old Equipment
Note or Equipment Notes

                                       14
<PAGE>

has been paid. Principal, interest and all other amounts shall be deemed to have
been paid on such new Equipment Note to the date on which such amounts shall
have been paid on such old Equipment Note. The Company shall not be required to
exchange any surrendered Equipment Notes as provided above (a) during the
ten-day period preceding the due date of any payment on such Equipment Note or
(b) that has been called for redemption. The Company and the Loan Trustee shall
in all cases deem and treat the Person in whose name any Equipment Note shall
have been issued and registered on the Equipment Note Register as the absolute
owner and Noteholder of such Equipment Note for the purpose of receiving payment
of all amounts payable with respect to such Equipment Note and for all other
purposes, and neither the Company nor the Loan Trustee shall be affected by any
notice to the contrary. The Loan Trustee will promptly notify the Company of
each registration of a transfer of an Equipment Note. Any such transferee of an
Equipment Note, by its acceptance of an Equipment Note, agrees to the provisions
of the Operative Documents applicable to Noteholders, and shall be deemed to
have represented, warranted and covenanted to the parties to the Participation
Agreement as to the matters represented, warranted and covenanted by the
Noteholders, including the Pass Through Trustees, in the Participation
Agreement. Subject to compliance by the Noteholder and its transferee (if any)
of the requirements set forth in this Section 2.07 and in Section 2.09, the Loan
Trustee and the Company shall use all reasonable efforts to issue new Equipment
Notes upon transfer or exchange within ten Business Days of the date an
Equipment Note is surrendered for transfer or exchange.

         Section 2.08. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Equipment Notes. If
any Equipment Note becomes mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company
shall, upon the written request of the holder of such Equipment Note and subject
to satisfaction of this Section 2.08 and of Section 2.09, execute and the Loan
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in replacement thereof a new Equipment
Note of the same Series, payable in the same principal amount, dated the same
date and captioned as issued in connection with the Aircraft. If the Equipment
Note being replaced has become mutilated, such Equipment Note shall be
surrendered to the Loan Trustee, and a photocopy thereof shall be furnished to
the Company. If the Equipment Note being replaced has been destroyed, lost or
stolen, the holder of such Equipment Note shall furnish to the Company and the
Loan Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save the
Company and the Loan Trustee harmless and evidence satisfactory to the Company
and the Loan Trustee of the destruction, loss or theft of such Equipment Note
and of the ownership thereof.

         Section 2.09. Payment of Expenses on Transfer; Cancellation.

         (a) No service charge shall be made to a Noteholder for any
registration of transfer or exchange of Equipment Notes, but the Loan Trustee,
as Equipment Note Registrar, may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any Tax or other

                                       15
<PAGE>

governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of
transfer or exchange of Equipment Notes.

         (b) The Loan Trustee shall cancel all Equipment Notes surrendered for
replacement, redemption, transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and shall
destroy the canceled Equipment Notes.

         Section 2.10. Mandatory Redemption of Equipment Notes. The Company
shall redeem the Equipment Notes in whole in connection with an Event of Loss in
respect of the Airframe or the Airframe and the Engines installed thereon
(unless the Company shall have performed the option set forth in Section
7.05(a)(i) with respect thereto) on or before the Loss Payment Date at a
redemption price equal to 100% of the unpaid principal amount thereof, together
with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon to (but excluding) the date of
redemption, but without any Make-Whole Amount.

         Section 2.11. Voluntary Redemption of Equipment Notes. All, but not
less than all, of the Equipment Notes may be redeemed in whole by the Company
upon at least 20 days' revocable prior written notice to the Loan Trustee at a
redemption price equal to 100% of the unpaid principal amount of the Equipment
Notes being redeemed, together with accrued interest thereon to (but excluding)
the date of redemption and all other amounts payable hereunder or under the
Participation Agreement to the Noteholders plus the Make-Whole Amount, if any.
Any notice shall become irrevocable three days before the redemption date if not
previously revoked.

         Section 2.12. Redemptions; Notice of Redemptions; Repurchases.

         (a) No redemption of any Equipment Note may be made except to the
extent and in the manner expressly permitted by this Indenture. At such time as
no Pass Through Certificates are outstanding, the Company may at any time
repurchase any of the Equipment Notes at any price in the open market and may
hold, resell or surrender such Equipment Notes to the Loan Trustee for
cancellation.

         (b) Notice of redemption with respect to the Equipment Notes shall be
given by the Loan Trustee by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less
than 15 nor more than 60 days prior to the applicable redemption date, to each
Noteholder at such Noteholder's address appearing in the Equipment Note
Register. All notices of redemption shall state: (1) the redemption date, (2)
the applicable basis for determining the redemption price, (3) that on the
redemption date, the redemption price will become due and payable upon each such
Equipment Note, and that, if any such Equipment Notes are then outstanding,
interest on such Equipment Notes shall cease to accrue on and after such
redemption date and (4) the place or places where such Equipment Notes are to be
surrendered for payment of the redemption price.

                                       16
<PAGE>

         (c) On or before the redemption date, the Company (or any person on
behalf of the Company) shall, to the extent an amount equal to the redemption
price for the Equipment Notes to be redeemed on the redemption date shall not
then be held in the Collateral, deposit or cause to be deposited with the Loan
Trustee by 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the redemption date in immediately
available funds the redemption price of the Equipment Notes to be redeemed.

         (d) Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid (and not
revoked as permitted by Section 2.11), the Equipment Notes to be redeemed shall,
on the redemption date, become due and payable at the Corporate Trust Office of
the Loan Trustee, and from and after such redemption date (unless there shall be
a default in the deposit of the redemption price pursuant to Section 2.12(c))
any such Equipment Notes then outstanding shall cease to bear interest. Upon
surrender of any such Equipment Note for redemption in accordance with said
notice, such Equipment Note shall be redeemed at the redemption price.

         Section 2.13. Subordination.

         (a) The indebtedness evidenced by the Series A-1 Equipment Notes and
Series A-2 Equipment Notes shall rank in right of payment equally with all other
Series A-1 Equipment Notes and Series A-2 Equipment Notes. The indebtedness
evidenced by the Series B Equipment Notes is, to the extent and in the manner
provided in this Indenture, subordinate and subject in right of payment to the
prior payment in full of the Secured Obligations in respect of the Series A-1
Equipment Notes and Series A-2 Equipment Notes, and the Series B Equipment Notes
are issued subject to such provisions. The indebtedness evidenced by the Series
C Equipment Notes is, to the extent and in the manner provided in this
Indenture, subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in
full of the Secured Obligations in respect of the Series A-1 Equipment Notes,
the Series A-2 Equipment Notes and the Series B Equipment Notes, and the Series
C Equipment Notes are issued subject to such provisions. The indebtedness
evidenced by the Series E Equipment Notes, if issued, shall be, to the extent
and in the manner provided in this Indenture, subordinate and subject in right
of payment to the prior payment in full of the Secured Obligations in respect of
the Series A-1 Equipment Notes, the Series A-2 Equipment Notes, the Series B
Equipment Notes and the Series C Equipment Notes, and the Series E Equipment
Notes, if issued, shall be issued subject to such provisions. By acceptance of
its Equipment Notes of any Series, each Noteholder of such Series (a) agrees to
and shall be bound by such provisions, (b) authorizes and directs the Loan
Trustee on such Noteholder's behalf to take such action as may be necessary or
appropriate to effectuate the subordination as provided in this Indenture and
(c) appoints the Loan Trustee as such Noteholder's attorney-in-fact for such
purpose.

         (b) The Company, the Loan Trustee and, by acceptance of its Equipment
Notes of any Series, each Noteholder of such Series, hereby agree that no

distribution of cash, property or securities, after the occurrence of any of the
events referred to in Section 4.01(f) or after the commencement of any
proceedings of the type referred to in Sections 4.01(g), (h) or (i), except as
expressly provided in Article III.

         (c) By the acceptance of its Equipment Notes of any Series, each
Noteholder of such Series agrees that if such Noteholder, in its capacity as a
Noteholder, shall receive any payment or distribution on any Secured Obligations
in respect of such Series that it is not entitled to receive under this Section
2.13 or Article III hereof, it will hold any amount so received in trust for the
Loan Trustee and forthwith turn over such amount to the Loan Trustee in the form
received to be applied as provided in Article III.

         the then outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Series A-1
         Equipment Notes, Series A-2 Equipment Notes, Series B Equipment Notes

Equipment Note, including, without limitation, any money deposited pursuant to
Section 2.12(c) or Section 10.01, and remaining unclaimed for two years after
the due date for such payment (or such lesser time as the Loan Trustee shall be
satisfied, after 60 days' notice from the Company, is one month prior to the
escheat period provided under applicable state law) shall be paid to the
Company. The Noteholders of any outstanding Equipment Notes shall thereafter, as
unsecured general creditors, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and
all liability of the Loan Trustee with respect to such trust money shall
thereupon cease; provided that the Loan Trustee, before being required to make
any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be mailed to each
such Noteholder notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date
specified therein which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of mailing,
any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company
as provided herein.

         Section 2.16. Directions by Subordination Agent. So long as the
Subordination Agent is a Noteholder, notwithstanding anything contained herein
or in any other Operative Document to the contrary, in exercising its right to
vote the Equipment Notes held by it, or in giving or taking any direction,
consent, request, demand, instruction, authorization, notice, waiver or other
action provided by this Indenture or in respect of the Equipment Notes to be
given or taken by a Noteholder (each such vote or other action, a "Direction")
in respect of such Equipment Notes, the Subordination Agent may act in
accordance with any votes, directions, consents, requests, demands,
instructions, authorizations, notices, waivers or other actions given or taken
by any applicable Pass Through Trustee or the Controlling Party pursuant to the
Intercreditor Agreement, including without limitation pursuant to Section 2.06,
Article IV or Section 8.01(b) thereof. The Subordination Agent shall be
permitted (x) to give a Direction with respect to less than the entire principal
amount of any single Equipment Note held by it, and (y) to give different
Directions with respect to different portions of the principal amount of any
single Equipment Note held by it. Any Direction given by the Subordination Agent
at any time with respect to more than a majority in aggregate unpaid principal
amount of all of the Equipment Notes issued and then outstanding hereunder shall
be deemed to have been given by a Majority in Interest of Noteholders.

         the Noteholders of Series A-1 Equipment Notes and Series A-2 Equipment
         Notes ratably, without priority of one over the other, in the
         proportion that the amount of such payment or payments then due under
         each Series A-1 Equipment Note or Series A-2 Equipment Note bears to
         the aggregate amount of the payments then due under all Series A-1
         Equipment Notes and Series A-2 Equipment Notes;

                  second, after giving effect to clause "first" above, so much

         ratably, without priority of one over the other, in the proportion that
         the amount of such payment or payments then due under each Series B
         Equipment Note bears to the aggregate amount of the payments then due
         under all Series B Equipment Notes;

                  third, after giving effect to clause "second" above, so much
         of such payment remaining as shall be required to pay in full the

contained in this Section 4.01, any failure of the Company to perform or observe
any covenant, condition or agreement shall not constitute an Event of Default if
such failure arises by reason of an event referred to in the definition of
"Event of Loss" so long as the Company is continuing to comply with all of the
terms of Section 7.05.

         Section 4.02. Remedies.

instrumentality of the United States, the Loan Trustee shall not, on account of
any Event of Default, be entitled to exercise or pursue any of the powers,
rights or remedies described in this Section 4.02 in such manner as to limit the
Company's control under this Indenture (or any Permitted Lessee's control under
any Lease) of the Airframe or any Engines installed thereon, unless at least 60
days' (or such lesser period as may then be applicable under the Military
Airlift Command Program of the United States government) prior written notice of
default hereunder shall have been given by the Loan Trustee by registered or
certified mail to the Company (and any such Permitted Lessee) with a copy

         the avoidance of doubt, without Make-Whole Amount), shall immediately
         become due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or notice,
         all of which are hereby waived; provided that if an Event of Default
         referred to in Subsections 4.01(f), (g), (h) or (i) shall have occurred
         and be continuing, then and in every such case the unpaid principal

         Loan Trustee, at the Company's expense, to deliver promptly, and the
         Company shall deliver promptly, all or such part of the Airframe or any
         Engine as the Loan Trustee may so demand to the Loan Trustee or its
         order, or, if the Company shall have failed to so deliver the Airframe
         or any Engine after such demand, the Loan Trustee, at its option, may
         enter upon the premises where all or any part of the Airframe or any
         Engine are located and take immediate possession of and remove the same
         together with any engine which is not an Engine but which is installed
         on the Airframe, subject to all of the rights of the owner, lessor,
         lienor or secured party of such engine; provided that the Airframe with
         an engine (which is not an Engine) installed thereon may be flown or
         returned only to a location within the continental United States, and
         such engine shall be held for the account of any such owner, lessor,
         lienor, secured party or, if such engine is owned by the Company, may
         at the option of the Company with the consent of the Loan Trustee
         (which will not be unreasonably withheld) or at the option of the Loan
         Trustee with the consent of the Company (which will not be unreasonably
         withheld), be exchanged with the Company for an Engine in accordance
         with the provisions of Section 7.05(b); (B) sell all or any part of the
         Airframe and any Engine at public or private sale, whether or not the
         Loan Trustee shall at the time have possession thereof, as the Loan
         Trustee may determine, or otherwise dispose of, hold, use, operate,
         lease to others or keep idle all or any part of the Airframe or such
         Engine as the Loan Trustee, in its sole discretion, may determine, all
         free and clear of any rights or claims of the Company, and the proceeds
         of such sale or disposition shall be applied as set forth in Section
         3.03; or (C) exercise any other remedy of a secured party under the
         Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York (whether or not in
         effect in the jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought).

         Upon every such taking of possession of Collateral under this Section
4.02, the Loan Trustee may, from time to time, at the expense of the Collateral,
make all such expenditures for maintenance, insurance, repairs, alterations,
additions and improvements to and of the Collateral as it may deem proper. In
each such case, the Loan Trustee shall have the right to maintain, use, operate,
store, lease, control or manage the Collateral and to exercise all rights and
powers of the Company relating to the Collateral as the Loan Trustee shall
reasonably deem best, including the right to enter into any and all such
agreements with respect to the maintenance, use, operation, storage, leasing,
control, management or disposition of the Collateral or any part thereof as the
Loan Trustee may reasonably determine; and the Loan Trustee shall be entitled to
collect and receive directly all tolls, rents, revenues, issues, income,
products and profits of the Collateral and every part thereof. Such tolls,
rents, revenues, issues, income, products and profits shall be applied to pay
the expenses of the use, operation, storage, leasing, control, management or
disposition of the Collateral, and of all maintenance, repairs, replacements,
alterations, additions and improvements, and to make all payments that the Loan
Trustee may be required or may elect to make, if any, for Taxes, insurance or
other

                                       29

proper charges assessed against or otherwise imposed upon the Collateral or any
part thereof, and all other payments which the Loan Trustee may be required or
expressly authorized to make under any provision of this Indenture, as well as
just and reasonable compensation for the services of the Loan Trustee, and shall
otherwise be applied in accordance with Article III.

         If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the
Equipment Notes shall either have been accelerated pursuant to this Section 4.02
or have become due at maturity and the Loan Trustee shall be entitled to
exercise rights hereunder, at the request of the Loan Trustee, the Company shall
promptly execute and deliver to the Loan Trustee such instruments of title and
other documents as the Loan Trustee may reasonably deem necessary or advisable
to enable the Loan Trustee or an agent or representative designated by the Loan
Trustee, at such time or times and place or places as the Loan Trustee may
specify, to obtain possession of all or any part of the Collateral to which the
Loan Trustee shall at the time be entitled hereunder. If the Company shall for
any reason fail to execute and deliver such instruments and documents after such
request by the Loan Trustee, the Loan Trustee may obtain a judgment conferring
on the Loan Trustee the right to immediate possession and requiring the Company
to execute and deliver such instruments and documents to the Loan Trustee, to
the entry of which judgment the Company hereby specifically consents to the
fullest extent it may lawfully do so.

         (b) The Loan Trustee shall give the Company at least 30 days' prior
written notice of any public sale or of the date on or after which any private
sale will be held, which notice the Company hereby agrees to the extent
permitted by applicable law is reasonable notice. Any Noteholder or Noteholders
shall be entitled to bid for and become the purchaser of any Collateral offered
for sale pursuant to this Section 4.02 and to credit against the purchase price
bid at such sale by such Noteholders all or any part of the unpaid amounts owing
to such Noteholders under the Operative Documents and secured by the Lien of
this Indenture (but only to the extent that such purchase price would have been
paid to such Noteholders pursuant to Article III if such purchase price were
paid in cash and the foregoing provision of this Section 4.02(b) were not given
effect). The Loan Trustee may exercise such right without possession or
production of the Equipment Notes or proof of ownership thereof, and as a
representative of the Noteholders may exercise such right without notice to the
Noteholders as parties to any suit or proceeding relating to the foreclosure of
any Collateral. The Company shall also be entitled to bid for and become the
purchaser of any Collateral offered for sale pursuant to this Section 4.02.

         (c) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company irrevocably
appoints, while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Loan
Trustee the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of the Company (which appointment
is coupled with an interest) in its name and stead and on its behalf, for the
purpose of effectuating any sale,

                                       30
<PAGE>

assignment, transfer or delivery for the enforcement of the Lien of this
Indenture, whether pursuant to foreclosure or power of sale, or otherwise, to
execute and deliver all such bills of sale, assignments and other instruments as
may be necessary or appropriate, with full power of substitution, the Company
hereby ratifying and confirming all that such attorney or any substitute shall
do by virtue hereof in accordance with applicable law; provided that if so
requested by the Loan Trustee or any purchaser, the Company shall ratify and
confirm any such sale, assignment or transfer of delivery, by executing and
delivering to the Loan Trustee or such purchaser all bills of sale, assignments,
releases and other proper instruments to effect such ratification and
confirmation as may be designated in any such request.

         (d) At any time after the Loan Trustee has declared the unpaid
principal amount of all Equipment Notes then outstanding to be due and payable
and prior to the sale of any part of the Collateral pursuant to this Article IV,
a Majority in Interest of Noteholders, by written notice to the Company and the
Loan Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:
(i) there has been paid to or deposited with the Loan Trustee an amount
sufficient to pay all overdue installments of principal amount of, and interest
on, the Equipment Notes, and all other amounts owing under the Operative
Documents, that have become due otherwise than by such declaration of
acceleration and (ii) all other Events of Default, other than nonpayment of
principal amount or interest on the Equipment Notes that have become due solely
because of such acceleration, have been cured or waived.

         (e) Notwithstanding anything contained herein, so long as the Pass
Through Trustee under any Pass Through Trust Agreement or the Subordination
Agent on its behalf is a Noteholder, the Loan Trustee will not be authorized or
empowered to acquire title to any Collateral or take any action with respect to
any Collateral so acquired by it if such acquisition or action would cause any
Pass Through Trust to fail to qualify as a "grantor trust" for federal income
tax purposes.

         Section 4.03. Remedies Cumulative. To the extent permitted under
applicable law, each and every right, power and remedy specifically given to the
Loan Trustee herein or otherwise in this Indenture shall be cumulative and shall
be in addition to every other right, power and remedy specifically given herein
or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute, and each and every
right, power and remedy whether specifically given herein or otherwise existing
may be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as may be
deemed expedient by the Loan Trustee, and the exercise or the beginning of the
exercise of any power or remedy shall not be construed to be a waiver of the
right to exercise at the same time or thereafter any other right, power or
remedy. No delay or omission by the Loan Trustee in the exercise of any right,
remedy or power or in the pursuance of any remedy shall, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be
a waiver of any default on the part of the Company or to be an acquiescence
therein.

         Section 4.04. Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case the Loan Trustee
shall have instituted any proceedings to enforce any right, power or remedy
under this Indenture by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings
shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been
determined adversely to the Loan Trustee, then and in every such case the
Company and the Loan Trustee shall, subject to any determination in such
proceedings, be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with
respect to the Collateral, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Loan
Trustee shall continue as if no such proceedings had been undertaken (but
otherwise without prejudice).

         Section 4.05. Waiver of Past Defaults. Upon written instruction from a
Majority in Interest of Noteholders, the Loan Trustee shall waive any past
default hereunder and its consequences, and upon any such waiver such default
shall cease to exist and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed
to have been cured for every purpose of the Operative Documents, but no such
waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right
consequent thereon; provided, however, that in the absence of written
instructions from each of the affected Noteholders, the Loan Trustee shall not
waive any default (i) in the payment of the principal amount, Make-Whole Amount,
if any, or interest due under any Equipment Note then outstanding (other than
with the consent of the holder thereof), or (ii) in respect of a covenant or
provision hereof which, under Article IX, cannot be modified or amended without
the consent of each such affected Noteholder.

         Section 4.06. Noteholders May Not Bring Suit Except Under Certain
Conditions. A Noteholder of any Series shall not have the right to institute any
suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity or otherwise with respect to this
Indenture for the appointment of a receiver or for the enforcement of any other
remedy under this Indenture, unless:

                  (1) such Noteholder previously shall have given written notice
         to the Loan Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;

                  (2) A Majority in Interest of Noteholders shall have requested
         the Loan Trustee in writing to institute such action, suit or
         proceeding and shall have offered to the Loan Trustee indemnity as
         provided in Section 5.03;

                  (3) the Loan Trustee shall have refused or neglected to
         institute any such action, suit or proceeding for 60 days after receipt
         of such notice, request and offer of indemnity; and

                  (4) no direction inconsistent with such written request shall
         have been given to the Loan Trustee during such 60-day period by a
         Majority in Interest of Noteholders.

                                       32
<PAGE>

         Except to the extent provided in the Intercreditor Agreement or in any
Indenture Supplement, it is understood and intended that no one or more of the
Noteholders of any Series shall have any right in any manner whatsoever
hereunder or under the Indenture Supplement or under the Equipment Notes of such
Series to (i) surrender, impair, waive, affect, disturb or prejudice any
Collateral, or the Lien of the Indenture on any Collateral, or the rights of the
Noteholders of such Series, (ii) obtain or seek to obtain priority over or
preference with respect to any other such Noteholder of such Series or (iii)
enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner provided in this
Indenture and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all the Noteholders
of such Series subject to the provisions of this Indenture.

                                    ARTICLE V

                           DUTIES OF THE LOAN TRUSTEE

         Section 5.01. Notice of Event of Default. If the Loan Trustee shall
have knowledge of an Event of Default or of a default arising from a failure by
the Company to pay when due any payment of principal amount, interest or
Make-Whole Amount, if any, due and payable under any Equipment Note, the Loan
Trustee shall promptly give notice thereof to the Company and each Noteholder by
telegram, cable, facsimile or telephone (to be promptly confirmed in writing);
provided, however, that except in the case of a default in the payment of the
principal amount, interest or Make-Whole Amount, if any, due and payable under
any Equipment Note, the Loan Trustee shall be protected in withholding the
notice to the Noteholders required in the foregoing part of this sentence if and
so long as the executive committee or trust committee of directors of the Loan
Trustee and/or trust officers thereof in good faith determine that withholding
such notice is in the interest of the Noteholders. Subject to the terms of
Sections 4.02, 4.05, 5.02 and 5.03, the Loan Trustee shall take such action, or
refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default
(including with respect to the exercise of any rights or remedies hereunder) as
the Loan Trustee shall be instructed in writing by a Majority in Interest of
Noteholders. Subject to the provisions of Section 5.03, if the Loan Trustee
shall not have received instructions as above provided within 20 Business Days
after giving notice of such Event of Default to the Noteholders, the Loan
Trustee may, subject to instructions thereafter received pursuant to the
preceding provisions of this Section 5.01, take such action, or refrain from
taking such action, but shall be under no duty to take or refrain from taking
any action, with respect to such Event of Default as it shall reasonably
determine to be advisable in the best interests of the Noteholders and shall use
the same degree of care and skill in connection therewith as a prudent person
would use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs;
provided that the Loan Trustee may not sell the Airframe or any Engine without
the consent of a Majority in Interest of Noteholders.

                                       33
<PAGE>

         For all purposes of this Indenture, in the absence of actual knowledge,
the Loan Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of a default or an Event
of Default unless notified in writing by the Company or one or more Noteholders;
and "actual knowledge" (as used in the foregoing clause) of the Loan Trustee
shall mean actual knowledge of an officer in the Corporate Trust Division of the
Loan Trustee; provided, however, that the Loan Trustee shall be deemed to have
actual knowledge of (i) the failure of the Company to pay any principal amount
of, or interest on, the Equipment Notes directly to the Loan Trustee when the
same shall become due or (ii) the failure of the Company to maintain insurance
as required under Section 7.06 if the Loan Trustee receives written notice
thereof from an insurer or insurance broker.

         Section 5.02. Action upon Instructions; Certain Rights and Limitations.
Subject to the terms of Article IV and this Article V, upon the written
instructions at any time of a Majority in Interest of Noteholders, the Loan
Trustee shall promptly (i) give such notice, direction, consent, waiver or
approval or exercise such right, remedy or power hereunder in respect of all or
any part of the Collateral or (ii) take such other action, as shall be specified
in such instructions.

         The Loan Trustee will cooperate with the Company in connection with the
recording, filing, re-recording and refiling of the Indenture and any
supplements to it and any financing statements or other documents as is
necessary to maintain the perfection hereof or otherwise protect the security
interests created hereby. The Loan Trustee shall furnish to the Company upon
request such information and copies of such documents as the Loan Trustee may
have and as are necessary for the Company to perform its duties under Article II
hereof.

         Section 5.03. Indemnification. The Loan Trustee shall not be required
to take any action or refrain from taking any action under Sections 5.01 (other
than the first sentence thereof) or 5.02 or Article IV unless it shall have
received indemnification against any risks incurred in connection therewith in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to it, including, without limitation,
adequate advances against costs that may be incurred by it in connection
therewith. The Loan Trustee shall not be required to take any action under
Section 5.01 (other than the first sentence thereof) or 5.02 or Article IV, nor
shall any other provision of any Operative Document be deemed to impose a duty
on the Loan Trustee to take any action, if the Loan Trustee shall have been
advised by outside counsel that such action is contrary to the terms hereof or
is otherwise contrary to law.

         Section 5.04. No Duties Except as Specified in Indenture or
Instructions. The Loan Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to manage,
control, lease, use, sell, operate, store, dispose of or otherwise deal with the
Aircraft or any other part of the Collateral, or to otherwise take or refrain
from taking any action under, or in connection with, this Indenture, except as
expressly provided by the terms of this Indenture or the

                                       34
<PAGE>

Participation Agreement or as expressly provided in written instructions
received pursuant to the terms of Section 5.01 or 5.02; and no implied duties or
obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Loan Trustee.

         Section 5.05. No Action Except under Indenture or Instructions. The
Loan Trustee agrees that it will not manage, control, use, sell, lease, operate,
store, dispose of or otherwise deal with the Aircraft or any other part of the
Collateral except in accordance with the powers granted to, or the authority
conferred upon, the Loan Trustee pursuant to this Indenture and in accordance
with the express terms hereof.

         Section 5.06. Investment of Amounts Held by the Loan Trustee. Any
monies (including for the purpose of this Section 5.06 any cash deposited with
the Loan Trustee by the Company, any cash received by the Loan Trustee pursuant
to Sections 7.05(c) or 7.06(d) or otherwise) or Permitted Investments purchased
by the use of such cash pursuant to this Section 5.06 or any cash constituting
the proceeds of the maturity, sale or other disposition of any Permitted
Investments) held by the Loan Trustee hereunder as part of the Collateral, until
paid out by the Loan Trustee as herein provided, (i) subject to clause (ii)
below, may be carried by the Loan Trustee on deposit with itself or on deposit
to its account with any bank, trust company or national banking association
incorporated or doing business under the laws of the United States or one of the
states thereof having combined capital and surplus and retained earnings of a
least $75,000,000, and the Loan Trustee shall not have any liability for
interest upon any such monies except as otherwise agreed in writing with the
Company, or (ii) at any time and from time to time, so long as no Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at the request of the Company,
shall be invested and reinvested in Permitted Investments as specified in such
request (if such investments are reasonably available for purchase) and sold, in
any case at such prices, including accrued interest or its equivalent, as are
set forth in such request, and such Permitted Investments shall be held by the
Loan Trustee in trust as part of the Collateral until so sold; provided that the
Company shall upon demand pay to the Loan Trustee the amount of any loss
realized upon maturity, sale or other disposition of any such Permitted
Investment and, so long as no Event of Default or Payment Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, the Company shall be entitled to receive from the
Loan Trustee, and the Loan Trustee shall promptly pay to the Company, any
profit, income, interest, dividend or gain realized upon maturity, sale or other
disposition of any Permitted Investment. If an Event of Default or Payment
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any net income, profit, interest,
dividend or gain realized upon maturity, sale or other disposition of any
Permitted Investment shall be held as part of the Collateral and shall be
applied by the Loan Trustee at the same time, on the same conditions and in the
same manner as the amounts in respect of which such income, profit, interest,
dividend or gain was realized are required to be distributed in accordance with
the provisions hereof pursuant to which such amounts were required to be held.
The Loan Trustee shall not be responsible for any losses on any investments or
sales of Permitted Investments made pursuant to the procedure specified in this
Section 5.06 other

                                       35
<PAGE>

than by reason of its willful misconduct or negligence. If any moneys or
investments are held by the Loan Trustee solely because an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing and such moneys or investments have been held for a
period of 90 consecutive days during which such Event of Default is continuing
without any remedial action being taken by the Loan Trustee in respect of such
Event of Default pursuant to Section 4.02 hereof, and provided that there is no
stay, moratorium or injunction in effect preventing the taking of such action,
then, notwithstanding any other provision of the Operative Documents, all such
moneys and investments held by the Loan Trustee shall be released to the Company
on such 90th day, or as soon thereafter as practicable.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                                THE LOAN TRUSTEE

         Section 6.01. Acceptance of Trusts and Duties. State Street accepts the
trusts and duties hereby created and applicable to it and agrees to perform such
duties, but only upon the terms of this Indenture and agrees to receive, handle
and disburse all monies received by it as Loan Trustee constituting part of the
Collateral in accordance with the terms hereof. State Street shall have no
liability hereunder except (a) for its own willful misconduct or negligence, (b)
as provided in the fourth sentence of Section 2.03(a) and the penultimate
sentence of Section 5.06, (c) for liabilities that may result from the
inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of State Street in the
Participation Agreement or expressly made hereunder and (d) as otherwise
expressly provided in the Operative Documents.

         Section 6.02. Absence of Certain Duties. Except in accordance with
written instructions furnished pursuant to Sections 5.01, 5.02 or 6.06, and
except as provided in, and without limiting the generality of, Sections 5.02,
5.03 and 5.04, the Loan Trustee, shall have no duty (a) to see to any
registration of the Aircraft or any recording or filing of this Indenture or any
other document, or to see to the maintenance of any such registration, recording
or filing, (b) to see to any insurance on the Aircraft or to effect or maintain
any such insurance, whether or not the Company shall be in default with respect
thereto, (c) to confirm, verify or inquire into the failure to receive any
financial statements of the Company or (d) to inspect the Aircraft at any time
or ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the
Company's covenants hereunder with respect to the Aircraft.

         Section 6.03. No Representations or Warranties as to the Documents.
Except as provided in Article V of the Participation Agreement, the Loan Trustee
shall not be deemed to have made any representation or warranty as to the
validity, legality or enforceability of any Operative Document or any other
document or instrument, or as to the correctness of any statement (other than a
statement by the Loan Trustee) contained

                                       36
<PAGE>

herein or therein, except that the Loan Trustee hereby represents and warrants
that each of said specified documents to which it is a party has been or will be
duly executed and delivered by one of its officers who is and will be duly
authorized to execute and deliver such document on its behalf.

         Section 6.04. No Segregation of Monies; No Interest. Subject to Section
5.06 hereof, all moneys received by the Loan Trustee shall, until used or
applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they
were received, but need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent
required by mandatory provisions of law, and neither the Loan Trustee nor any
agent of the Loan Trustee shall be under any liability for interest on any
moneys received by it hereunder; provided, however, that any payments received,
or applied hereunder, by the Loan Trustee shall be accounted for by the Loan
Trustee so that any portion thereof paid or applied pursuant hereto shall be
identifiable as to the source thereof.

         Section 6.05. Reliance; Agents; Advice of Counsel. The Loan Trustee
shall not incur any liability to anyone in acting upon any signature,
instrument, notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate, report,
opinion, bond or other document or paper reasonably believed by it to be genuine
and reasonably believed by it to be signed by the proper party or parties. The
Loan Trustee may accept a copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors of any
party to the Participation Agreement, certified by the Secretary or an Assistant
Secretary of such party as duly adopted and in full force and effect, as
conclusive evidence that such resolution has been duly adopted and that the same
is in full force and effect. As to any fact or matter the manner of
ascertainment of which is not specifically described herein, the Loan Trustee
may for all purposes hereof rely on a certificate, signed by a duly authorized
officer of the Company, as to such fact or matter, and such certificate shall
constitute full protection to the Loan Trustee for any action taken or omitted
to be taken by it in good faith in reliance thereon. In the administration of
the trusts hereunder, the Loan Trustee may, with the consent of the Company
(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), (a) execute any of the trusts or
powers hereof and perform its powers and duties hereunder directly or through
agents (including paying agents or registrars) or attorneys, and (b) at the
expense of the Collateral, consult with counsel, accountants and other skilled
Persons to be selected and retained by it. The Loan Trustee shall not be liable
for anything done, suffered or omitted in good faith by it in accordance with
the advice or opinion of any such counsel, accountants or other skilled Persons
acting within such counsel's, accountants' or Person's area of competence (so
long as the Loan Trustee shall have exercised reasonable care and judgment in
selecting such Persons).

         Section 6.06. Instructions from Noteholders. In the administration of
the trusts created hereunder, the Loan Trustee shall have the right to seek
instructions from a Majority in Interest of Noteholders should any provision of
this Indenture appear to conflict with any other provision herein or any other
Operative Document or Pass

                                       37
<PAGE>

Through Document or should the Loan Trustee's duties or obligations hereunder be
unclear, and the Loan Trustee shall incur no liability in refraining from acting
until it receives such instructions. The Loan Trustee shall be fully protected
for acting in accordance with any instructions received under this Section 6.06.

                                   ARTICLE VII

                       OPERATING COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY

         Section 7.01. Liens. The Company will not directly or indirectly
create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien on or with respect to the
Aircraft, its title thereto or any of its interest therein, except:

                  (a) the respective rights of the Loan Trustee and the Company
         as provided in the Operative Documents, the Lien of this Indenture, the

         Liens;

                  (d) Liens for Taxes either not yet due or payable or being
         contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings so long as such
         proceedings do not involve any material risk of the sale, forfeiture or
         loss of the Airframe or any Engine or the Loan Trustee's interest
         therein or materially impair the Lien of this Indenture;

                  (e) materialmen's, mechanics', workers', repairmen's,

         either are not yet overdue for a period of more than 60 days or are
         being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings so long as
         such proceedings do not involve any material risk of the sale,
         forfeiture or loss of the Airframe or any Engine or the Loan Trustee's
         interest therein or materially impair the Lien of this Indenture;

                  (g) any other Lien with respect to which the Company shall
         have provided a bond, cash collateral or other security adequate in the
         reasonable opinion of the Loan Trustee;

                  (h) salvage or similar rights of insurers under insurance

cause to be taken) such action as may be necessary duly to discharge (by bonding
or otherwise) any Lien other than a Permitted Lien arising at any time with
respect to the Aircraft, its title thereto or any of its interest therein.

Registration.

         (a) Possession. The Company shall not, without the prior written
consent of the Loan Trustee, lease or otherwise in any manner deliver, transfer
or relinquish possession of the Airframe or any Engine or install any Engine, or
permit any Engine to be installed, on any airframe other than the Airframe;
provided that, so long as the Company shall comply with the provisions of
Section 7.06, the Company may without the prior written consent of the Loan
Trustee:

                  (i) subject the Airframe to interchange agreements or subject
         any Engine to interchange or pooling agreements or arrangements, in
         each case customary in the airline industry and entered into by the
         Company in the ordinary course of its business; provided that (A) no
         such agreement or arrangement contemplates or requires the transfer of
         title to the Airframe and (B) if the Company's title to any such Engine
         shall be divested under any such agreement or arrangement, such
         divestiture shall be deemed to be an Event of Loss with respect to such
         Engine, and the Company shall comply with Section 7.05(b) in respect
         thereof;

                  (ii) deliver possession of the Airframe or any Engine to any
         Person for testing, service, repair, maintenance, overhaul work or
         other similar purposes or for alterations, modifications or additions
         to the Airframe or such Engine to the extent required or permitted by
         the terms hereof;

                  (iii) transfer or permit the transfer of possession of the
         Airframe or any Engine to any Government pursuant to a lease, contract
         or other instrument;

                  (iv) subject the Airframe or any Engine to the CRAF Program or
         transfer possession of the Airframe or any Engine to the United States
         government in accordance with applicable laws, rulings, regulations or
         orders (including, without limitation, any transfer of possession
         pursuant to the CRAF Program); provided, that the Company (A) shall
         promptly notify the Loan Trustee upon transferring possession of the
         Airframe or any Engine pursuant to this clause (iv) and (B) in the case
         of a transfer of possession pursuant to the CRAF Program, shall notify
         the Loan Trustee of the name and address of the responsible Contracting
         Office Representative for the Military Airlift Command of the United
         States Air Force or other appropriate Person to whom notices must be
         given and to whom requests or claims must be made to the extent
         applicable under the CRAF Program;

                  (v) install an Engine on an airframe owned by the Company (or
         any Permitted Lessee) free and clear of all Liens, except (A) Permitted
         Liens and Liens that apply only to the engines (other than Engines),
         appliances, parts, instruments, appurtenances, accessories, furnishings
         and other equipment (other than Parts) installed on such airframe (but
         not to the airframe as an entirety) and (B) the rights of third parties
         under interchange agreements or pooling or similar arrangements that
         would be permitted under clause (i) above;

                  (vi) install an Engine on an airframe leased to the Company
         (or any Permitted Lessee) or purchased or owned by the Company (or any
         Permitted Lessee) subject to a conditional sale or other security
         agreement; provided that (A) such airframe is free and clear of all
         Liens except (1) the rights of the parties to the lease or conditional
         sale or other security agreement covering such airframe, or their
         successors and assigns, and (2) Liens of the type permitted by clause
         (v) of this Section 7.02(a) and (B) either (1) the Company shall have
         obtained from the lessor or secured party of such airframe a written
         agreement (which may be the lease, conditional sale or other security
         agreement covering such airframe), in form and substance satisfactory
         to the Loan Trustee (it being understood that an agreement from such
         lessor or secured party substantially in the form of the final sentence
         of the penultimate paragraph of this Section 7.02(a) shall be deemed to
         be satisfactory to the Loan Trustee), whereby such lessor or secured
         party expressly agrees that neither it nor its successors or assigns
         will acquire or claim any right, title or interest in any Engine by
         reason of such Engine being installed on such airframe at any time
         while such Engine is subject to the Lien of this Indenture or (2) such
         lease, conditional sale or other security agreement provides that such
         Engine shall not become subject to the Lien of such lease, conditional
         sale or other security agreement at any time while such Engine is
         subject to the Lien of this Indenture, notwithstanding the installation
         thereof on such airframe;

                                       40
<PAGE>

                  (vii) install an Engine on an airframe owned by the Company
         (or any Permitted Lessee), leased to the Company (or any Permitted
         Lessee) or purchased by the Company (or any Permitted Lessee) subject
         to a conditional sale or other security agreement under circumstances
         where neither clause (v) nor clause (vi) of this Section 7.02(a) is
         applicable; provided that such installation shall be deemed an Event of
         Loss with respect to such Engine, and the Company shall comply with
         Section 7.05(b) in respect thereof, if such installation shall
         adversely affect the Loan Trustee's security interest in such Engine,
         the Loan Trustee not intending hereby to waive any right or interest it
         may have to or in such Engine under applicable law until compliance by
         the Company with Section 7.05(b);

                  (viii) lease any Engine or the Airframe and Engines to any
         United States air carrier as to which there is in force a certificate
         issued pursuant to the Transportation Code (49 U.S.C.
         Sections 41101-41112) or successor provision that gives like authority;
         and

                  (ix) lease any Engine or the Airframe and Engines to (A) any
         foreign air carrier other than those set forth in clause (B), (B) any
         foreign air carrier that is at the inception of the lease based in and
         a domiciliary of a country listed in Exhibit B hereto and (C) any
         foreign air carrier consented to in writing by the Loan Trustee with
         the consent of a Majority in Interest of Noteholders; provided that (x)
         in the case of a lease to a foreign air carrier under clause (A) above,
         the Loan Trustee receives at the time of such lease (1) written
         confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies that such lease would not
         result in a reduction of the rating for any class of Pass Through
         Certificates below the then current rating for such class of Pass
         Through Certificates or a withdrawal or suspension of the rating of any
         class of Pass Through Certificates and (2) an opinion of counsel to the
         Company (such counsel to be reasonably satisfactory to the Loan
         Trustee) to the effect that there exist no possessory rights in favor
         of the lessee under the laws of such lessee's country which would, upon
         bankruptcy or insolvency of or other default by the Company and
         assuming at such time such lessee is not insolvent or bankrupt, prevent
         the taking of possession of any such Engine or the Airframe and any
         such Engine by the Loan Trustee in accordance with and when permitted
         by the terms of Section 4.02 upon the exercise by the Loan Trustee of
         its remedies under Section 4.02, (y) in the case of a lease to any
         foreign air carrier (other than a foreign air carrier principally based
         in Taiwan), the United States maintains diplomatic relations with the
         country in which such foreign air carrier is based at the time such
         lease is entered into and (z) in the case of any lease to a foreign air
         carrier, such carrier is not then subject to any bankruptcy,
         insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution or similar
         proceeding and shall not have substantially all of its property in the
         possession of any liquidator, trustee, receiver or similar person;

                                       41
<PAGE>

provided that the rights of any lessee or other transferee who receives
possession of the Aircraft, the Airframe or any Engine by reason of a transfer
permitted by this Section 7.02(a) (other than the transfer of an Engine which is
deemed an Event of Loss) shall be subject and subordinate to, and any permitted
lease shall be made expressly subject and subordinate to, all the terms of this
Indenture, including the Loan Trustee's rights to repossess pursuant to Section
4.02 and to avoid such lease upon such repossession, and the Company shall
remain primarily liable hereunder for the performance and observance of all of
the terms and conditions of this Indenture to the same extent as if such lease
or transfer had not occurred, any such lease shall include appropriate
provisions for the maintenance and insurance of the Aircraft, the Airframe or
such Engine, and no lease or transfer or possession otherwise in compliance with
this Section shall (x) result in any registration or re-registration of the
Aircraft except to the extent permitted in Section 7.02(e) or the maintenance,
operation or use thereof that does not comply with Section 7.02(b) and (c) or
(y) permit any action not permitted to be taken by the Company with respect to
the Aircraft hereunder. The Company shall promptly notify the Loan Trustee and
the Rating Agencies of the existence of any such lease with a term in excess of
one year.

         The Loan Trustee, and each Noteholder by acceptance of an Equipment
Note, agrees, for the benefit of the lessor or secured party of any airframe or
engine leased to the Company (or any Permitted Lessee) or purchased or owned by
the Company (or any Permitted Lessee) subject to a conditional sale or other
security agreement, that the Loan Trustee and the Noteholders will not acquire
or claim, as against such lessor or secured party, any right, title or interest
in (A) any engine or engines owned by the lessor under such lease or subject to
a security interest in favor of the secured party under such conditional sale or
other security agreement as the result of such engine or engines being installed
on the Airframe at any time while such engine or engines are subject to such
lease or conditional sale or other security agreement or (B) any airframe owned
by the lessor under such lease or subject to a security interest in favor of the
secured party under such conditional sale or other security agreement as the
result of any Engine being installed on such airframe at any time while such
airframe is subject to such lease or conditional sale or other security
agreement.

         The Loan Trustee acknowledges that any "wet lease" or other similar
arrangement under which the Company maintains operational control of the
Aircraft shall not constitute a delivery, transfer or relinquishment of
possession for purposes of this Section 7.02(a).

         (b) Operation and Use. The Company agrees that the Aircraft will not be
maintained, used or operated in violation of any law, rule or regulation of any
government of any country having jurisdiction over the Aircraft or in violation
of any airworthiness certificate, license or registration relating to the
Aircraft issued by any such government, except to the extent the Company is
contesting in good faith the validity or

                                       42
<PAGE>

application of any such law, rule or regulation in any manner that does not
involve any material risk of sale, forfeiture or loss of the Aircraft or
materially impair the Lien of this Indenture; and provided, that the Company
shall not be in default under, or required to take any action set forth in, this
sentence if it is not possible for it to comply with the laws of a jurisdiction
other than the United States (or other than any jurisdiction in which the
Aircraft is then registered) because of a conflict with the applicable laws of
the United States (or such jurisdiction in which the Aircraft is then
registered). The Company will not operate the Aircraft, or permit the Aircraft
to be operated or located, (i) in any area excluded from coverage by any
insurance required by the terms of Section 7.06 or (ii) in any war zone or
recognized or, in the Company's judgment, threatened areas of hostilities unless
covered by war risk insurance in accordance with Section 7.06, unless in the
case of either clause (i) or (ii), (x) indemnification complying with Section
7.06(a) and (b) has been provided or (y) the Aircraft is only temporarily
located in such area as a result of an isolated occurrence or isolated series of
occurrences attributable to a hijacking, medical emergency, equipment
malfunction, weather conditions, navigational error or other similar unforeseen
circumstances and the Company is using its good faith efforts to remove the
Aircraft from such area as promptly as practicable.

         (c) Maintenance. The Company shall maintain, service, repair and
overhaul the Aircraft (or cause the same to be done) so as to keep the Aircraft
in good operating condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and in such
condition as may be necessary to enable the airworthiness certification of the
Aircraft to be maintained in good standing at all times (other than during
temporary periods of storage, during maintenance or modification permitted
hereunder, or during periods of grounding by applicable governmental
authorities) under the Transportation Code, during such periods in which the
Aircraft is registered under the laws of the United States, or, if the Aircraft
is registered under the laws of any other jurisdiction, the applicable laws of
such jurisdiction. In any case the Aircraft will be maintained in accordance
with the maintenance standards required by or substantially equivalent to those
required by the FAA or the central aviation authority of Australia, Austria,
Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Japan, the
Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland or the United
Kingdom. The Company shall maintain or cause to be maintained all records, logs
and other documents required to be maintained in respect of the Aircraft by
appropriate authorities in the jurisdiction in which the Aircraft is registered.

         (d) Identification of Loan Trustee's Interest. The Company agrees to
affix as promptly as practicable after the Closing Date and thereafter to
maintain in the cockpit of the Aircraft, in a clearly visible location, and (if
not prevented by applicable law or regulations or by any government) on each
Engine, a nameplate bearing the inscription "MORTGAGED TO STATE STREET BANK AND
TRUST COMPANY OF CONNECTICUT, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, AS LOAN TRUSTEE" (such

                                       43
<PAGE>

nameplate to be replaced, if necessary, with a nameplate reflecting the name of
any successor Loan Trustee).

         (e) Registration. The Company shall cause the Aircraft to remain duly
registered, under the laws of the United States, in the name of the Company
except as otherwise required by the Transportation Code; provided that the Loan
Trustee shall, at the Company's expense, execute and deliver all such documents
as the Company may reasonably request for the purpose of continuing such
registration. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Company, at its own
expense, may cause or allow the Aircraft to be duly registered under the laws of
any foreign jurisdiction in which a Permitted Lessee could be principally based,
in the name of the Company or of any nominee of the Company, or, if required by
applicable law, in the name of any other Person (and, following any such foreign
registration, may cause the Aircraft to be re-registered under the laws of the
United States); provided, that in the case of jurisdictions other than those
approved by the Loan Trustee with the consent of a Majority in Interest of the
Noteholders (i) if such jurisdiction is at the time of registration listed on
Exhibit B, the Loan Trustee shall have received at the time of such registration
an opinion of counsel to the Company to the effect that (A) this Indenture and
the Loan Trustee's right to repossession thereunder is valid and enforceable
under the laws of such country, (B) after giving effect to such change in
registration, the Lien of this Indenture shall continue as a valid Lien and
shall be duly perfected in the new jurisdiction of registration and that all
filing, recording or other action necessary to perfect and protect the Lien of
this Indenture has been accomplished (or if such opinion cannot be given at such
time, (x) the opinion shall detail what filing, recording or other action is
necessary and (y) the Loan Trustee shall have received a certificate from a
Responsible Officer of the Company that all possible preparations to accomplish
such filing, recording and other action shall have been done, and such filing,
recording and other action shall be accomplished and a supplemental opinion to
that effect shall be promptly delivered to the Loan Trustee subsequent to the
effective date of such change in registration), (C) the obligations of the
Company under this Indenture shall remain valid, binding and (subject to
customary bankruptcy and equitable remedies exceptions and to other exceptions
customary in foreign opinions generally) enforceable under the laws of such
jurisdiction (or the laws of the jurisdiction to which the laws of such
jurisdiction would refer as the applicable governing law) and (D) all approvals
or consents of any government in such jurisdiction having jurisdiction required
for such change in registration shall have been duly obtained and shall be in
full force and effect, and (ii) if such jurisdiction is at the time of
registration not listed on Exhibit B, the Loan Trustee shall have received (in
addition to the opinions set forth in clause (i) above) at the time of such
registration an opinion of counsel to the Company to the effect that (A) the
terms of this Indenture are legal, valid, binding and enforceable in such
jurisdiction (subject to exceptions customary in such jurisdiction, provided,
that, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar
laws affecting the rights of creditors generally, and to general principles of
equity, any applicable laws limiting the remedies provided in Section 4.02

                                       44
<PAGE>

do not in the opinion of such counsel make the remedies provided in Section 4.02
inadequate for the practical realization of the rights and benefits provided
thereby), (B) that it is not necessary for the Loan Trustee to register or
qualify to do business in such jurisdiction, (C) that there is no tort liability
of the lender of an aircraft not in possession thereof under the laws of such
jurisdiction other than tort liability that might have been imposed on such
lender under the laws of the United States or any state thereof (it being
understood that such opinion shall be waived if insurance reasonably
satisfactory to the Loan Trustee is provided, at the Company's expense, to cover
such risk) and (D) (unless the Company shall have agreed to provide insurance
covering the risk of requisition of use or title of the Aircraft by the
government of such jurisdiction so long as the Aircraft is registered under the
laws of such jurisdiction) that the laws of such jurisdiction require fair
compensation by the government of such jurisdiction payable in currency freely
convertible into Dollars for the loss of use or title of the Aircraft in the
event of requisition by such government of such use or title. The Loan Trustee
will cooperate with the Company in effecting such foreign registration.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to any such change in the country of
registry of the Aircraft, the following conditions shall be met (or waived as
provided in Section 6.01(b) of the Participation Agreement):

                  (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing
         at the effective date of the change in registration; provided, that it
         shall not be necessary to comply with this condition if the change in
         registration results in the registration of the Aircraft under the laws
         of the United States or if a Majority in Interest of Noteholders
         consents to such change in registration;

                  (ii) the Loan Trustee shall have received evidence of
         compliance with the insurance provisions contained herein after giving
         effect to such change in registration; and

                  (iii) the Company shall have paid or made provision reasonably
         satisfactory to the Loan Trustee for the payment of all reasonable
         expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) of the Loan Trustee and
         the Noteholders in connection with such change in registration.

         Section 7.03. Inspection; Financial Information.

         (a) Inspection. At all reasonable times, but upon at least 15 Business
Days' prior written notice to the Company, the Loan Trustee or its authorized
representative may, subject to the other conditions of this Section 7.03(a),
inspect the Aircraft and may inspect the books and records of the Company
required to be maintained by the FAA or the government of another jurisdiction
in which the Aircraft is then registered relating to the maintenance of the
Aircraft; provided that (i) such Loan Trustee or its representative, as the case
may be, shall be fully insured at no cost to the Company in a manner

                                       45
<PAGE>

satisfactory to the Company with respect to any risks incurred in connection
with any such inspection or shall provide to the Company a written release
satisfactory to the Company with respect to such risks, (ii) any such inspection
shall be subject to the safety, security and workplace rules applicable at the
location where such inspection is conducted and any applicable governmental
rules or regulations, (iii) any such inspection of the Aircraft shall be a
visual, walk-around inspection of the interior and exterior of the Aircraft and
shall not include opening any panels, bays or the like without the Company's
express consent, which consent the Company may in its sole discretion withhold,
and (iv) no exercise of such inspection right shall interfere with the use,
operation or maintenance of the Aircraft by, or the business of, the Company and
the Company shall not be required to undertake or incur any additional
liabilities in connection therewith. All information obtained in connection with
any such inspection of the Aircraft and of such books and records shall be
Confidential Information and shall be treated by the Loan Trustee and its
representatives in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.16. Any
inspection pursuant to this Section 7.03(a) shall be at the sole risk
(including, without limitation, any risk of personal injury or death) and
expense of the Loan Trustee (or its representative) making such inspection.
Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, all inspections by the
Loan Trustee and its representatives provided for under this Section 7.03(a)
shall be limited to one inspection of any kind contemplated by this Section
7.03(a) during any calendar year.

         (b) Financial Information. So long as any of the Equipment Notes remain
unpaid, the Company agrees to furnish to the Loan Trustee and the Liquidity
Provider: (i) within 60 days after the end of each of the first three quarterly
periods in each fiscal year of the Company, either (x) a consolidated balance
sheet of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries prepared by it as of the
close of such period, together with the related consolidated statements of
income for such period or (y) a report of the Company on Form 10-Q in respect of
such period in the form filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and
(ii) within 120 days after the close of each fiscal year of the Company, either

public accountants, or (y) a report of the Company on Form 10-K in respect of
such year in the form filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

         (c) Annual Opinion. The Company will furnish to the Loan Trustee

until such time as the principal of, and interest on, and all other amounts with
respect to, the Equipment Notes shall have been paid in full, commencing with
the year 2002, an opinion of Crowe & Dunlevy, P.C., or other counsel reasonably
acceptable to the Loan Trustee, stating either (i) that in the opinion of such
counsel such action has been taken with respect to the recording, filing,
re-recording and refiling of this Indenture and any supplements thereto,
including any financing or continuation statements, and such other filings and

                                       46

recordings as are necessary to maintain, for the 15-month period succeeding the
date of such opinion, the perfection of the security interests created thereby
and reciting the details of such action or (ii) that in the opinion of such
counsel no such action is necessary to maintain, for the 15-month period
succeeding the date of such opinion, the perfection of such security interests.

         Section 7.04. Replacement and Pooling of Parts; Alterations,
Modifications and Additions; Substitution of Engines.

         (a) Replacement of Parts. The Company shall promptly replace all Parts
that may from time to time be incorporated or installed in or attached to the
Airframe or any Engine and that may from time to time become worn out, lost,
stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged beyond repair or rendered
permanently unfit for use for any reason whatsoever, except as otherwise
provided in Section 7.04(c) or if the Airframe or an Engine to which a Part
relates has suffered an Event of Loss. In addition, the Company may remove in
the ordinary course of maintenance, service, repair, overhaul or testing, any
Parts, whether or not worn out, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated,
damaged beyond repair or rendered permanently unfit for use; provided that the
Company, except as otherwise provided in Section 7.04(c), will replace such
Parts as promptly as practicable. All replacement Parts shall be free and clear
of all Liens (except for Permitted Liens and except in the case of replacement
property temporarily installed on an emergency basis) and shall have a value and
utility at least equal to the Parts replaced, assuming such replaced Parts were
in the condition and repair required to be maintained by the terms hereof.
Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.04(c), all Parts at any time removed
from the Airframe or any Engine shall remain subject to the Lien of this
Indenture no matter where located until such time as such Parts shall be
replaced by parts that have been incorporated or installed in or attached to the
Airframe or such Engine and that meet the requirements for replacement Parts
specified above. Immediately upon any replacement Part becoming incorporated or
installed in or attached to the Airframe or any Engine as above provided (except
in the case of replacement property temporarily installed on an emergency
basis), without further act, (i) the replaced Part shall thereupon be free and
clear of all rights of the Loan Trustee and of the Lien of this Indenture and
shall no longer be deemed a Part hereunder and (ii) such replacement Part shall
become subject to the Lien of this Indenture and be deemed a Part of the
Airframe or such Engine for all purposes to the same extent as the Parts
originally incorporated or installed in or attached to the Airframe or such
Engine. Upon request of the Company from time to time, the Loan Trustee shall
execute and deliver to the Company an appropriate instrument confirming the
release of any such replaced Part from the Lien of this Indenture.

         (b) Pooling of Parts. Any Part removed from the Airframe or any Engine
as provided in Section 7.04(a) may be subjected by the Company or a Person
permitted to be in possession of the Aircraft to a pooling arrangement customary
in the airline industry

                                       47
<PAGE>

entered into in the ordinary course of the Company's or such Person's business;
provided that the part replacing such removed Part shall be incorporated or
installed in or attached to the Airframe or such Engine in accordance with
Section 7.04(a) as promptly as practicable after the removal of such removed
Part. In addition, any replacement Part when incorporated or installed in or
attached to the Airframe or any Engine may be owned by any third party subject
to such a pooling arrangement; provided that the Company, at its expense, as
promptly thereafter as practicable, either (i) causes title to such replacement
Part to vest in the Company free and clear of all Liens (except Permitted
Liens), or (ii) replaces such replacement Part by incorporating or installing in
or attaching to the Airframe or such Engine a further replacement Part in the
manner contemplated by Section 7.04(a).

         (c) Alterations, Modifications and Additions. The Company will make
such alterations and modifications in and additions to the Airframe and the
Engines as may be required from time to time to meet the applicable requirements
of the FAA or any applicable government of any other jurisdiction in which the
Aircraft may then be registered; provided, however, that the Company may, in
good faith, contest the validity or application of any such requirement in any
manner that does not involve any material risk of sale, loss or forfeiture of
the Aircraft and does not materially adversely affect the Loan Trustee's
interest in the Aircraft. In addition, the Company, at its own expense, may from
time to time add further parts or accessories and make or cause to be made such
alterations and modifications in and additions to the Airframe or any Engine as
the Company may deem desirable in the proper conduct of its business, including,
without limitation, removal (without replacement) of Parts, provided that no
such alteration, modification or addition shall materially diminish the value or
utility of the Airframe or such Engine below its value or utility, immediately
prior to such alteration, modification or addition, assuming that the Airframe
or such Engine was then in the condition required to be maintained by the terms
of this Indenture, except that the value (but not the utility) of the Airframe
or any Engine may be reduced by the value of any such Parts that shall have been
removed that the Company deems obsolete or no longer suitable or appropriate for
use on the Airframe or any Engine. All Parts incorporated or installed in or
attached or added to the Airframe or any Engine as the result of such
alteration, modification or addition shall, without further act, be subject to
the Lien of this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, at
any time, remove any Part from the Airframe or any Engine if such Part: (i) is
in addition to, and not in replacement of or substitution for, any Part
originally incorporated or installed in or attached to the Airframe or such
Engine at the time of delivery thereof to the Company or any Part in replacement
of, or substitution for, any such Part, (ii) is not required to be incorporated
or installed in or attached or added to the Airframe or such Engine pursuant to
the first sentence of this Section 7.04(c) or (iii) can be removed from the
Airframe or such Engine without materially diminishing the value or utility
required to be maintained by the terms of this Indenture that the Airframe or
such Engine would have had at such time had such removal not occurred. Upon the
removal by the Company of any Part as permitted by

                                       48
<PAGE>

this Section 7.04(c), such removed Part shall, without further act, be free and
clear of all rights and interests of the Loan Trustee and the Lien of this
Indenture and shall no longer be deemed a Part hereunder. Upon request of the
Company from time to time, the Loan Trustee shall execute and deliver to the
Company an appropriate instrument confirming the release of any such removed
Part from the Lien of this Indenture.

         (d) Substitution of Engines. The Company shall have the right at its
option at any time, on at least 30 days' prior written notice to the Loan
Trustee, to substitute a Replacement Engine for any Engine. In such event, and
prior to the date of such substitution, the Company shall replace such Engine
hereunder by complying with the terms of Section 7.05(b) to the same extent as
if an Event of Loss had occurred with respect to such Engine.

         Section 7.05. Loss, Destruction or Requisition.

         (a) Event of Loss with Respect to the Airframe. Upon the occurrence of
an Event of Loss with respect to the Airframe or the Airframe and the Engines
then installed thereon, the Company shall forthwith (and, in any event, within
15 days after such occurrence) give the Loan Trustee written notice of such
Event of Loss, and, within 90 days after such Event of Loss, the Company shall
give the Loan Trustee written notice of its election to perform one of the
following options (it being agreed that if the Company shall not have given such
notice of election within such 90-day period, the Company shall be deemed to
have elected to perform the option set forth in the following clause (ii)). The
Company may elect either to:

                  (i) on or before the Loss Payment Date (as defined below)
         substitute, as replacement for the Airframe or Airframe and Engines
         with respect to which an Event of Loss has occurred, a Replacement
         Airframe (together with a number of Replacement Engines equal to the
         number of Engines, if any, with respect to which the Event of Loss
         occurred), such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines to be
         owned by the Company free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted
         Liens); provided that if the Company shall not perform its obligation
         to effect such substitution under this clause (i) on or prior to the
         Loss Payment Date, then the Company shall on the Loss Payment Date
         prepay the Equipment Notes in full in accordance with Section 2.10; or

                  (ii) on or before the Loss Payment Date, redeem the Equipment
         Notes in full in accordance with Section 2.10. The Company shall give
         the Loan Trustee 20 days prior written notice if it elects to redeem
         the Equipment Notes on any day prior to the Loss Payment Date.

                                       49
<PAGE>

         The "Loss Payment Date" with respect to an Event of Loss means the
Business Day next succeeding the 120th day following the date of occurrence of
such Event of Loss.

         If the Company elects to substitute a Replacement Airframe (or a
Replacement Airframe and one or more Replacement Engines, as the case may be)
the Company shall, at its sole expense, not later than the Loss Payment Date,
(A) cause an Indenture Supplement for such Replacement Airframe and Replacement
Engines, if any, to be delivered to the Loan Trustee for execution and, upon
such execution, to be filed for recordation pursuant to the Transportation Code
or the applicable laws of such other jurisdiction in which the Aircraft may then
be registered, (B) cause a financing statement or statements with respect to the
Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, or other requisite
documents or instruments to be filed in such place or places as necessary in
order to perfect the Loan Trustee's interest therein in the United States, or in
any other jurisdiction in which the Aircraft may then be registered, (C) furnish
the Loan Trustee with an opinion of the Company's counsel (which may be the
Company's General Counsel or such other internal counsel of the Company as shall
be reasonably satisfactory to the Loan Trustee) addressed to the Loan Trustee to
the effect that upon such replacement, such Replacement Airframe and Replacement
Engines, if any, will be subject to the Lien of this Indenture and addressing
the matters set forth in clauses (A) and (B), (D) furnish the Loan Trustee with
a certificate of an independent aircraft engineer or appraiser, certifying that
the Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, have a value and
utility at least equal to the Airframe and Engines, if any, so replaced,
assuming the Airframe and such Engines were in the condition and repair required
by the terms hereof immediately prior to the occurrence of such Event of Loss,
(E) furnish the Loan Trustee with evidence of compliance with the insurance
provisions of Section 7.06 with respect to such Replacement Airframe and
Replacement Engines, if any, and (F) furnish the Loan Trustee with an opinion of
the Company's counsel (which may be the Company's General Counsel or such other
internal counsel of the Company as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Loan
Trustee) to the effect that the Loan Trustee will be entitled to the benefits of
Section 1110 with respect to the Replacement Airframe, provided that (i) such
opinion need not be delivered to the extent that the benefits of Section 1110
were not, by reason of a change in law or governmental or judicial
interpretation thereof, available to the Loan Trustee with respect to the
Aircraft immediately prior to such substitution and (ii) such opinion may
contain qualifications and assumptions of the tenor contained in the opinion of
the Company's counsel delivered pursuant to Section 3.01 of the Participation
Agreement on the Closing Date and such other qualifications and assumptions as
shall at the time be customary in opinions rendered in comparable circumstances.

         In the case of each Replacement Airframe or Replacement Airframe and
one or more Replacement Engines subjected to the Lien of this Indenture under
this Section 7.05(a), promptly upon the recordation of the Indenture Supplement
covering such

                                       50
<PAGE>

Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, pursuant to the
Transportation Code (or pursuant to the applicable law of such other
jurisdiction in which such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any,
are registered), the Company will cause to be delivered to the Loan Trustee a
favorable opinion of the Company's counsel (which may be the Company's General
Counsel or such other internal counsel to the Company as shall be reasonably
satisfactory to the Loan Trustee) addressed to the Loan Trustee as to the due
registration of such Replacement Aircraft and the due recordation of such
Indenture Supplement or such other requisite documents or instruments and the
validity and perfection of the security interest in the Replacement Aircraft
granted to the Loan Trustee under this Indenture.

         For all purposes hereof, upon the attachment of the Lien of this
Indenture thereto, the Replacement Aircraft and Replacement Engines, if any,
shall become part of the Collateral, the Replacement Airframe shall be deemed an
"Airframe" as defined herein, and each such Replacement Engine shall be deemed
an "Engine" as defined herein. Upon compliance with clauses (A) through (F) of
the second preceding paragraph, the Loan Trustee shall execute and deliver to
the Company an appropriate instrument releasing such replaced Airframe and
Engines (if any) installed thereon at the time such Event of Loss occurred, all
proceeds (including, without limitation, insurance proceeds), the Warranty
Rights in respect of such replaced Airframe and Engines (if any) and all rights
relating to the foregoing, from the Lien of this Indenture and assigning to the
Company all claims against third Persons for damage to or loss of the Airframe
and Engines arising from the Event of Loss.

         In the event that, after an Event of Loss, the Company performs the
option set forth in clause (ii) of the first paragraph of this Section 7.05(a),
the Loan Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Company an appropriate
instrument releasing the Aircraft, all proceeds (including, without limitation,
insurance proceeds), the Warranty Rights in respect of the Aircraft and all
rights relating to the foregoing from the Lien of this Indenture and assigning
to the Company all claims against third Persons for damage to or loss of the
Aircraft arising from the Event of Loss.

         (b) Event of Loss with Respect to an Engine. Upon the occurrence of an
Event of Loss with respect to an Engine under circumstances in which there has
not occurred an Event of Loss with respect to the Airframe, the Company shall
give the Loan Trustee prompt written notice thereof and shall, within 120 days
after the occurrence of such Event of Loss, cause to be subjected to the Lien of
this Indenture, as replacement for the Engine with respect to which such Event
of Loss occurred, a Replacement Engine free and clear of all Liens (other than
Permitted Liens).

         Prior to or at the time of any replacement under this Section 7.05(b),
the Company will (i) cause an Indenture Supplement covering such Replacement
Engine to be delivered to the Loan Trustee for execution and, upon such
execution, to be filed for

                                       51
<PAGE>

recordation pursuant to the Transportation Code or the applicable laws of any
other jurisdiction in which the Aircraft may be registered, (ii) cause a
financing statement or statements with respect to such Replacement Engine or
other requisite documents or instruments to be filed in such place or places as
necessary in order to perfect the Loan Trustee's interest therein in the United
States, or in such other jurisdiction in which the Engine may then be
registered, (iii) furnish the Loan Trustee with an opinion of the Company's
counsel (which may be the Company's General Counsel or such other internal
counsel to the Company as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Loan Trustee)
addressed to the Loan Trustee to the effect that, upon such replacement, the
Replacement Engine will be subject to the Lien of this Indenture, (iv) furnish
the Loan Trustee with a certificate of an aircraft engineer or appraiser (who
may be an employee of the Company) certifying that such Replacement Engine has a
value and utility at least equal to the Engine so replaced assuming such Engine
was in the condition and repair required by the terms hereof immediately prior
to the occurrence of such Event of Loss and (v) furnish the Loan Trustee with
evidence of compliance with the insurance provisions of Section 7.06 with
respect to such Replacement Engine. In the case of each Replacement Engine
subjected to the Lien of this Indenture under this Section 7.05(b), promptly
upon the recordation of the Indenture Supplement covering such Replacement
Engine pursuant to the Transportation Code (or pursuant to the applicable law of
such other jurisdiction in which the Aircraft is registered), the Company will
cause to be delivered to the Loan Trustee an opinion of counsel to the Company
(which may be the Company's General Counsel or such other internal counsel of
the Company as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Loan Trustee) addressed
to the Loan Trustee as to the due recordation of such Indenture Supplement or
such other requisite documents or instruments and the validity and perfection of
the security interest in the Replacement Engine granted to the Loan Trustee
under this Indenture. For all purposes hereof, upon the attachment of the Lien
of this Indenture thereto, the Replacement Engine shall become part of the
Collateral and shall be deemed an "Engine" as defined herein. Upon compliance
with clauses (i) through (v) of this paragraph, the Loan Trustee shall execute
and deliver to the Company an appropriate instrument releasing such replaced
Engine, any proceeds (including, without limitation, insurance proceeds), the
Warranty Rights in respect of such replaced Engine and all rights relating to
any of the foregoing from the Lien of this Indenture and assigning to the
Company all claims against third Persons for damage to or loss of such Engine
arising from the Event of Loss.

         (c) Application of Payments for Event of Loss from Requisition of Title
or Use. Any payments (other than insurance proceeds the application of which is
provided for in Section 7.06) received at any time by the Company or by the Loan
Trustee from any government or other Person with respect to an Event of Loss to
the Airframe or any Engine, will be applied as follows:

                  (i) if such payments are received with respect to the Airframe
         or the Airframe and the Engines installed on the Airframe that has been
         or is being

                                       52
<PAGE>

         replaced by the Company pursuant to Section 7.05(a), such payments
         shall be paid over to, or retained by, the Loan Trustee and upon
         completion of such replacement shall be paid over to, or retained by,
         the Company;

                  (ii) if such payments are received with respect to the
         Airframe or the Airframe and the Engines installed on the Airframe that
         has not been and will not be replaced pursuant to Section 7.05(a), so
         much of such payments remaining after reimbursement of the Loan Trustee
         for costs and expenses that shall not exceed the amounts required to be
         paid to the Noteholders pursuant to Section 2.10 shall be applied in
         reduction of the Company's obligation to pay such amounts, if not
         already paid by the Company, or, if already paid by the Company, shall
         be applied to reimburse the Company for its payment of such amount and
         the balance, if any, of such payment remaining thereafter will be paid
         over to, or retained by, the Company; and

                  (iii) if such payments are received with respect to an Engine
         with regard to which an Event of Loss has occurred as contemplated by
         Section 7.05(b), so much of such payments remaining after reimbursement
         of the Loan Trustee for costs and expenses shall be paid over to, or
         retained by, the Company; provided that the Company shall have fully
         performed the terms of Section 7.05(b) with respect to the Event of
         Loss for which such payments are made.

         (d) Requisition for Use by the Government of the Airframe and the
Engines Installed Thereon. In the event of the requisition for use by any
government, including, without limitation, pursuant to the CRAF Program, of the
Airframe and the Engines or engines installed on the Airframe that does not
constitute an Event of Loss, all of the Company's rights and obligations under
this Indenture with respect to the Airframe and such Engines shall continue to
the same extent as if such requisition had not occurred; provided that,
notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company's obligations other than payment
obligations shall only continue to the extent feasible. All payments received by
the Company or the Loan Trustee from such government for such use of the
Airframe and Engines or engines shall be paid over to, or retained by, the
Company.

         (e) Requisition for Use by the Government of an Engine not Installed on
the Airframe. In the event of the requisition for use by any government of any
Engine not then installed on the Airframe, the Company will replace such Engine
by complying with the terms of Section 7.05(b) to the same extent as if an Event
of Loss had occurred with respect to such Engine. Upon such replacement, any
payments received by the Company or the Loan Trustee from such government with
respect to such requisition shall be paid over to, or retained by, the Company.

         (f) Application of Payments During Existence of Event of Default. Any
amount referred to in Section 7.05 that is payable to or retainable by the
Company shall

                                       53
<PAGE>

not be paid to or retained by the Company if at the time of such payment or
retention an Event of Default or Payment Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, but shall be held by or paid over to the Loan Trustee as security
for the obligations of the Company under this Indenture. At such time as there
shall not be continuing any such Event of Default or Payment Default, such
amount shall be paid to the Company.

         Section 7.06. Insurance.

         (a) Aircraft Liability Insurance.

         (i) Except as provided in clause (ii) of this subsection (a), and
subject to the rights of the Company to establish and maintain self-insurance in
the manner and to the extent specified in Section 7.06(c), the Company will
carry, or cause to be carried, at no expense to the Loan Trustee, aircraft
liability insurance (including, but not limited to, bodily injury, personal
injury and property damage liability, exclusive of manufacturer's product
liability insurance) and contractual liability insurance with respect to the
Aircraft (A) in amounts that are not less than the aircraft liability insurance
applicable to similar aircraft and engines in the Company's fleet on which the
Company carries insurance; provided that such liability insurance shall not be
less than the amount certified in the insurance report delivered to the Loan
Trustee on the Closing Date, (B) of the type usually carried by corporations
engaged in the same or similar business, similarly situated with the Company and
owning or operating similar aircraft and engines and covering risks of the kind
customarily insured against by the Company, and (C) that is maintained in effect
with insurers of recognized responsibility. Any policies of insurance carried in
accordance with this Section 7.06(a) and any policies taken out in substitution
or replacement for any of such policies shall (A) name the Loan Trustee, the
Subordination Agent, each Pass Through Trustee and the Liquidity Provider as
their Interests (as defined below in this Section 7.06) may appear, as
additional insured (the "Additional Insureds"), (B) subject to the condition of
clause (C) below, provide that, in respect of the interest of the Additional
Insureds in such policies, the insurance shall not be invalidated by any action
or inaction of the Company and shall insure the Additional Insureds' Interests
as they appear, regardless of any breach or violation of any warranty,
declaration or condition contained in such policies by the Company, (C) provide
that, if such insurance is canceled for any reason whatever, or if any change is
made in the policy that materially reduces the amount of insurance or the
coverage certified in the insurance report delivered on the Closing Date to the
Loan Trustee and the Liquidity Provider, or if such insurance is allowed to
lapse for nonpayment of premium, such cancellation, change or lapse shall not be
effective as to any Additional Insured for 30 days (seven days, or such other
period as is customarily available in the industry, in the case of any war risk
or allied perils coverage) after receipt by such Additional Insured of written
notice from such insurers of such cancellation, change or lapse, (D) provide
that the Additional Insureds shall have no obligation or liability for premiums,
commissions, assessments or calls in connection with such insurance, (E) provide
that the insurers shall

                                       54
<PAGE>

waive any rights of (1) set-off, counterclaim or any other deduction, whether by
attachment or otherwise, in respect of any liability of the Additional Insureds
to the extent of any moneys due to the Additional Insureds and (2) subrogation
against the Additional Insureds to the extent that the Company has waived its
rights by its agreements to indemnify the Additional Insureds pursuant to the
Operative Documents, (F) be primary without right of contribution from any other
insurance that may be carried by each Additional Insured with respect to its
interests as such in the Aircraft and (G) expressly provide that all of the
provisions thereof, except the limits of liability, shall operate in the same
manner as if there were a separate policy covering each insured. "Interests" as
used in this Section 7.06(a) and in Section 7.06(b) with respect to any Person
means the interests of such Person in the transactions contemplated by the
Operative Documents. In the case of a lease or contract with any government in
respect of the Aircraft or any Engine, or in the case of any requisition for use
of the Aircraft or any Engine by any government, a valid agreement by such
government to indemnify the Company, or an insurance policy issued by such
government, against any of the risks that the Company is required hereunder to
insure against shall be considered adequate insurance for purposes of this
Section 7.06(a) to the extent of the risks (and in the amounts) that are the
subject of such indemnification or insurance.

         (ii) During any period that the Airframe or an Engine, as the case may
be, is on the ground and not in operation, the Company may carry or cause to be
carried as to such non-operating Airframe or Engine, in lieu of the insurance
required by clause (i) above, and subject to self-insurance to the extent
permitted by Subsection 7.06(c), insurance otherwise conforming with the
provisions of said clause (i) except that: (A) the amounts of coverage shall not
be required to exceed the amounts of airline liability insurance from time to
time applicable to airframes or engines owned or leased by the Company of the
same type as such non-operating Airframe or Engine and that are on the ground
and not in operation and (B) the scope of the risks covered and the type of
insurance shall be the same as from time to time shall be applicable to
airframes or engines owned or leased by the Company of the same type as such
non-operating Airframe or Engine and that are on the ground and not in
operation.

         (b) Insurance Against Loss or Damage to Aircraft.

         (i) Except as provided in clause (ii) of this subsection (b), and
subject to the rights of the Company to establish and maintain self-insurance in
the manner and to the extent specified in Section 7.06(c), the Company shall
maintain, or cause to be maintained, in effect with insurers of recognized
responsibility, at no expense to the Loan Trustee, all-risk aircraft hull
insurance covering the Aircraft and all-risk coverage with respect to any
Engines or Parts while removed from the Aircraft (including, without limitation,
war risk insurance if and to the extent the same is maintained by the Company or
any Permitted Lessee with respect to other aircraft owned or operated by the
Company or such Permitted Lessee, as the case may be, on the same routes) that
is of the type and

                                       55
<PAGE>

in substantially the amount usually carried by corporations engaged in the same
or similar business and similarly situated with the Company; provided that (A)
such insurance (including the permitted self-insurance) shall at all times while
the Aircraft is subject to this Indenture be for an amount not less than 110% of
the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Equipment Notes from time to
time, (B) such insurance need not cover an Engine while attached to an airframe
not owned, leased or operated by the Company and (C) such insurance covering
Engines and Parts removed from an Airframe or an airframe or (in the case of
Parts) an Engine need be obtained only to the extent available at reasonable
cost (as reasonably determined by the Company). Any policies carried in
accordance with this Section 7.06(b) and any policies taken out in substitution
or replacement for any such policies shall (A) provide that any insurance
proceeds up to an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of the
Equipment Notes, together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon, plus an
amount equal to the interest that would accrue on the outstanding principal
amount of the Equipment Notes at the Debt Rate in effect on the date of payment
of such insurance proceeds to the Loan Trustee (as provided for in this
sentence) during the period commencing on the day following the date of such
payment to the Loan Trustee and ending on the Loss Payment Date (the "Loan
Amount"), payable for any loss or damage constituting an Event of Loss with
respect to the Aircraft and any insurance proceeds in excess of the amount set
forth on Exhibit C up to the amount of the Loan Amount for any loss or damage to
the Aircraft (or Engines) not constituting an Event of Loss with respect to the
Aircraft (or Engines), shall be paid to the Loan Trustee as long as the
Indenture shall not have been discharged, and that all other amounts shall be
payable to the Company, unless the insurer shall have received notice that an
Event of Default exists, in which case all insurance proceeds for any loss or
damage to the Aircraft (or Engines) up to the Loan Amount shall be payable to
the Loan Trustee, (B) subject to the conditions of clause (C) below, provide
that, in respect of the interests of the Additional Insureds in such policies,
the insurance shall not be invalidated by any action or inaction of the Company
and shall insure the Additional Insureds' Interests as they appear, regardless
of any breach or violation of any warranty, declaration or condition contained
in such policies by the Company, (C) provide that if such insurance is canceled
for any reason whatsoever, or if any change is made in the policy that
materially reduces the amount of insurance or the coverage certified in the
insurance report delivered on the Closing Date to the Loan Trustee and the
Liquidity Provider or if such insurance is allowed to lapse for nonpayment of
premium, such cancellation, change or lapse shall not be effective as to the
Additional Insureds for 30 days (seven days, or such other period as is
customarily available in the industry, in the case of war risk or allied perils
coverage) after receipt by the Additional Insureds of written notice from such
insurers of such cancellation, change or lapse, (D) provide that the Additional
Insureds shall have no obligation or liability for premiums, commissions,
assessments or calls in connection with such insurance, (E) provide that the
insurers shall waive rights of (1) setoff, counterclaim or any other deduction,
whether by attachment or otherwise, in respect of any liability of the
Additional Insureds to the extent of any moneys due to the Additional Insureds
and (2) subrogation against the Additional

                                       56
<PAGE>

Insureds to the extent the Company has waived its rights by its agreement to
indemnify the Additional Insureds pursuant to the Operative Documents and (F) be
primary without right of contribution from any other insurance that may be
carried by any Additional Insured with respect to its Interests as such in the
Aircraft. In the case of a lease or contract with any government in respect of
the Aircraft or any Engine, or in the case of any requisition for use of the
Aircraft or any Engine by any government, a valid agreement by such government
to indemnify the Company, or an insurance policy issued by such government,
against any risks which the Company is required hereunder to insure against
shall be considered adequate insurance for purposes of this Section 7.06(b) to
the extent of the risks (and in the amounts) that are the subject of such
indemnification or insurance.

         (ii) During any period that the Airframe or an Engine is on the ground
and not in operation, the Company may carry or cause to be carried as to such
non-operating Airframe or Engine, in lieu of the insurance required by clause
(i) above, and subject to self-insurance to the extent permitted by Subsection
7.06(c), insurance otherwise conforming with the provisions of said clause (i)
except that the scope of the risks covered and the type of insurance shall be
the same as from time to time applicable to airframes and engines owned or
leased by the Company (or, if a lease is then in effect, by the Permitted
Lessee) of the same type as such non-operating Airframe or Engine and that are
on the ground and not in operation; provided that, subject to self-insurance to
the extent permitted by Subsection 7.06(c), the Company shall maintain insurance
against risk of loss or damage to such non-operating Airframe or Engine in an
amount at least equal to 110% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of
the Equipment Notes during such period that such Airframe or Engine is on the
ground and not in operation.

         (c) Self-Insurance. The Company may from time-to-time self-insure, by
way of deductible, self-insured retention, premium adjustment or franchise or
otherwise (including, with respect to insurance maintained pursuant to
Subsections 7.06(a) or 7.06(b), insuring for a maximum amount that is less than
the amounts set forth in Sections 7.06(a) and 7.06(b)), the risks required to be
insured against pursuant to Sections 7.06(a) and 7.06(b), but in no case shall
the self-insurance with respect to all of the aircraft and engines in the
Company's fleet (including, without limitation, the Aircraft) exceed for any
12-month policy year 1% of the average aggregate insurable value (for the
preceding policy year) of all aircraft (including, without limitation, the
Aircraft) on which the Company carries insurance, unless an insurance broker of
national standing shall certify that the standard among all other major United
States airlines is a higher level of self-insurance, in which case the Company
may self-insure the Aircraft to such higher level. In addition to the foregoing
right to self-insure, the Company may self-insure to the extent of (1) any
deductible per occurrence that, in the case of the Aircraft, is not in excess of
the amount customarily allowed as a deductible in the industry or is required to
facilitate claims handling or (2) any applicable mandatory minimum per aircraft
(or if

                                       57
<PAGE>

applicable per annum or other period) hull or liability insurance deductibles
imposed by the aircraft or hull liability insurers.

         (d) Application of Insurance Payments. All losses will be adjusted by
the Company with the insurers. As between the Loan Trustee and the Company it is
agreed that all insurance payments received under policies required to be
maintained by the Company hereunder, exclusive of any payments received in
excess of the Loan Amount for the Aircraft from such policies, as the result of
the occurrence of an Event of Loss with respect to the Airframe or an Engine
will be applied as follows:

                  (i) if such payments are received with respect to the Airframe
         or the Airframe and any Engines installed on the Airframe that has been
         or is being replaced by the Company pursuant to Section 7.05(a), such
         payments shall be paid over to, or retained by, the Loan Trustee and
         upon completion of such replacement shall be paid over to, or retained
         by, the Company.

                  (ii) if such payments are received with respect to the
         Airframe or the Airframe and any Engines installed on the Airframe that
         has not been and will not be replaced as contemplated by Section
         7.05(a), so much of such payments remaining after reimbursement of the
         Loan Trustee for its costs and expenses as shall not exceed the amounts
         required to be paid by the Company pursuant to Section 2.10 shall be
         applied in reduction of the Company's obligation to pay such amounts,
         if not already paid by the Company, or, if already paid by the Company,
         shall be applied to reimburse the Company for its payment of such
         amounts and the balance, if any, of such payment remaining thereafter
         will be paid over to, or retained by, the Company; and

                  (iii) if such payments are received with respect to an Engine
         with regard to which an Event of Loss contemplated by Section 7.05(b)
         has occurred, so much of such payments remaining after reimbursement of
         the Loan Trustee for its costs and expenses shall be paid over to, or
         retained by, the Company; provided that the Company shall have fully
         performed the terms of Section 7.05(b) with respect to the Event of
         Loss for which such payments are made.

         In all events, the insurance payment of any property damage loss
received under policies maintained by the Company in excess of the Loan Amount
for the Aircraft shall be paid to the Company.

         The insurance payments for any loss or damage to the Airframe or an
Engine not constituting an Event of Loss with respect to the Airframe or such
Engine will be applied in payment (or to reimburse the Company) for repairs or
for replacement property in accordance with the terms of Sections 7.02 and 7.04,
and any balance remaining after compliance with such Sections with respect to
such loss or damage shall be paid to the

                                       58
<PAGE>

Company. Any amount referred to in the preceding sentence or in clause (i), (ii)
or (iii) of the second preceding paragraph that is payable to the Company shall
not be paid to the Company (or, if it has been previously paid directly to the
Company, shall not be retained by the Company) if at the time of such payment an
Event of Default or Payment Default shall have occurred and be continuing, but
shall be paid to and held by the Loan Trustee as security for the obligations of
the Company under this Indenture, and at such time as there shall not be
continuing any such Event of Default or Payment Default, such amount shall, to
the extent not theretofore applied as provided herein, be paid to the Company.

         (e) Reports, Etc. On or before the Closing Date and annually upon
renewal of the Company's insurance coverage, the Company will furnish to the
Loan Trustee and the Liquidity Provider a report signed by a firm of independent
aircraft insurance brokers appointed by the Company (which brokers may be in the
regular employ of the Company), stating the opinion of such firm that the
insurance then carried and maintained on the Aircraft complies with the terms
hereof; provided that all information contained in such report shall be
Confidential Information and shall be treated by the Loan Trustee and the
Liquidity Provider and each of their affiliates and officers, directors, agents
and employees in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.16. The Company
will cause such firm to advise the Loan Trustee and the Liquidity Provider in
writing of any act or omission on the part of the Company of which such firm has
knowledge that might invalidate or render unenforceable, in whole or in part,
any insurance on the Aircraft. The Company will also cause such firm to advise
the Loan Trustee and the Liquidity Provider in writing as promptly as
practicable after such firm acquires knowledge that an interruption of any
insurance carried and maintained on the Aircraft pursuant to this Section 7.06
will occur. Such information may only be provided to other Persons in accordance
with Section 10.16.

         (f) Salvage Rights; Other. All salvage rights to the Airframe and each
Engine shall remain with the Company's insurers at all times, and any insurance
policies of the Loan Trustee insuring the Airframe or any Engine shall provide
for a release to the Company of any and all salvage rights in and to the
Airframe or any Engine. Neither the Loan Trustee nor any Noteholder may,
directly or indirectly, obtain insurance for its own account with respect to the
Airframe or any Engine if such insurance would limit or otherwise adversely
affect the coverage or amounts payable under, or increase the premiums for, any
insurance required to be maintained pursuant to this Section 7.06 or any other
insurance maintained with respect to the Aircraft of any other aircraft in the
Company's fleet.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                        SUCCESSOR AND ADDITIONAL TRUSTEES

         Section 8.01. Resignation or Removal; Appointment of Successor.

         (a) The resignation or removal of the Loan Trustee and the appointment
of a successor Loan Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Loan
Trustee's acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 8.01. The Loan
Trustee or any successor thereto must resign if at any time it ceases to be
eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.01(c) and may resign at
any time without cause by giving at least 60 days' prior written notice to the
Company and each Noteholder. In addition, either the Company (so long as no
Event of Default or Payment Default shall have occurred and be continuing) or a
Majority in Interest of Noteholders (but only with the consent of the Company so
long as no Event of Default or Payment Default shall have occurred and be
continuing), may at any time remove the Loan Trustee without cause by an
instrument in writing delivered to the Loan Trustee and each Noteholder, and, in
case of a removal by a Majority in Interest of Noteholders, to the Company.

         In the case of the resignation or removal of the Loan Trustee, the
Company shall promptly appoint a successor Loan Trustee. If a successor Loan
Trustee shall not have been appointed within 60 days after such notice of
resignation or removal, the Loan Trustee, the Company or any Noteholder may
apply to any court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Loan Trustee
to act until such time, if any, as a successor shall have been appointed as
above provided. The successor Loan Trustee so appointed by such court shall
immediately and without further act be superseded by any successor Loan Trustee
appointed as above provided.

         (b) Any successor Loan Trustee, however appointed, shall execute and
deliver to the predecessor Loan Trustee and the Company an instrument accepting
such appointment and assuming the obligations of the Loan Trustee arising from
and after the time of such appointment, and thereupon such successor Loan
Trustee, without further act, shall become vested with all the estates,
properties, rights, powers and duties of the predecessor Loan Trustee hereunder
in the trust hereunder applicable to it with like effect as if originally named
the Loan Trustee herein; but nevertheless upon the written request of such
successor Loan Trustee, such predecessor Loan Trustee shall execute and deliver
an instrument transferring to such successor Loan Trustee all the estates,
properties, rights and powers of such predecessor Loan Trustee, and such
predecessor Loan Trustee shall duly assign, transfer, deliver and pay over to
such successor Loan Trustee all monies or other property and all other books and
records, or true, correct and complete copies thereof, then held by such
predecessor Loan Trustee hereunder.

                                       60
<PAGE>

         (c) This Indenture shall at all times have a Loan Trustee, however
appointed, that is a Citizen of the United States (without the use of a voting
trust) and a bank or trust company having a combined capital and surplus of at
least $75,000,000 (or a combined capital and surplus in excess of $5,000,000 and
the obligations of which, whether now in existence or hereafter incurred, are
fully and unconditionally guaranteed by a corporation organized and doing
business under the laws of the United States or any state or territory thereof
or the District of Columbia and having a combined capital and surplus of at
least $75,000,000) or a corporation with a net worth of at least $75,000,000, if
there be such an institution willing, able and legally qualified to perform the
duties of the Loan Trustee hereunder upon reasonable or customary terms. If such
bank, trust company or corporation publishes reports of conditions at least
annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of federal, state, territorial
or District of Columbia supervising or examining authority, then for the
purposes of this Section 8.01(c) the combined capital and surplus of such bank,
trust company or corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and
surplus as set forth in its most recent report of conditions so published. In
case at any time the Loan Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with
the provisions of this Section 8.01(c), the Loan Trustee shall resign
immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 8.01(a).

         (d) Any corporation into which the Loan Trustee may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting
from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Loan Trustee shall be
a party, or any corporation to which substantially all the corporate trust
business of the Loan Trustee may be transferred, shall, subject to the terms of
Section 8.01(c), be a successor Loan Trustee under this Indenture without
further act.

         Section 8.02. Appointment of Additional and Separate Trustees.

         (a) Whenever (i) the Loan Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable
in order to conform to any law of any jurisdiction in which all or any part of
the Collateral shall be situated or to make any claim or bring any suit with
respect to or in connection with the Collateral, any Operative Document or any
of the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents, (ii) the Loan
Trustee shall be advised by counsel satisfactory to it that it is necessary or
prudent in the interests of the Noteholders (and the Loan Trustee shall so
advise the Company) or (iii) the Loan Trustee shall have been requested to do so
by a Majority in Interest of Noteholders, then in any such case, the Loan
Trustee and, upon the written request of the Loan Trustee, the Company, shall
execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto and such other instruments
as may from time to time be necessary or advisable either (1) to constitute one
or more banks or trust companies or corporations meeting the requirements of
Section 8.01(c) and approved by the Loan Trustee, either to act jointly with the
Loan Trustee as additional trustee or trustees of all or any part of the
Collateral or to act as separate trustee or trustees of all or any part of the
Collateral, in each case with such rights, powers, duties and obligations

                                       61
<PAGE>

consistent with this Indenture as may be provided in such supplemental indenture
or other instruments as the Loan Trustee or a Majority in Interest of
Noteholders may deem necessary or advisable, or (2) to clarify, add to or
subtract from the rights, powers, duties and obligations theretofore granted any
such additional or separate trustee, subject in each case to the remaining
provisions of this Section 8.02. If no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, no additional or supplemental trustee shall be appointed without the
Company's consent. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
the Loan Trustee may act under the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.02(a)
without the concurrence of the Company, and the Company hereby irrevocably
appoints (which appointment is coupled with an interest) the Loan Trustee as its
agent and attorney-in-fact to act for it under the foregoing provisions of this
Section 8.02(a). The Loan Trustee may, in such capacity, execute, deliver and
perform any such supplemental indenture, or any such instrument, as may be
required for the appointment of any such additional or separate trustee or for
the clarification of, addition to or subtraction from the rights, powers, duties
or obligations theretofore granted to any such additional or separate trustee,
subject in each case to the remaining provisions of this Section 8.02. In case
any additional or separate trustee appointed under this Section 8.02(a) shall
become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the assets, property,
rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of such additional or separate
trustee shall revert to the Loan Trustee until a successor additional or
separate trustee is appointed as provided in this Section 8.02(a).

         (b) No additional or separate trustee shall be entitled to exercise any
of the rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred upon the Loan Trustee in
respect of the custody, investment and payment of monies and all monies received
by any such additional or separate trustee from or constituting part of the
Collateral or otherwise payable under any Operative Documents to the Loan
Trustee shall be promptly paid over by it to the Loan Trustee. All other rights,
powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon any additional or
separate trustee shall be exercised or performed by the Loan Trustee and such
additional or separate trustee jointly except to the extent that applicable law
of any jurisdiction in which any particular act is to be performed renders the
Loan Trustee incompetent or unqualified to perform such act, in which event such
rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to all or
part of the Collateral in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and
performed by such additional or separate trustee. No additional or separate
trustee shall take any discretionary action except on the instructions of the
Loan Trustee or a Majority in Interest of Noteholders. No trustee hereunder
shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee
hereunder, except that the Loan Trustee shall be liable for the consequences of
its lack of reasonable care in selecting, and the Loan Trustee's own actions in
acting with, any additional or separate trustee. Each additional or separate
trustee appointed pursuant to this Section 8.02 shall be subject to, and shall
have the benefit of Articles IV, V, VI, VIII, IX and X hereof insofar as they
apply to the Loan Trustee. The powers of

                                       62
<PAGE>

any additional or separate trustee appointed pursuant to this Section 8.02 shall
not in any case exceed those of the Loan Trustee hereunder.

         (c) If at any time the Loan Trustee shall deem it no longer necessary
or desirable or in the event that the Loan Trustee shall have been requested to
do so in writing by a Majority in Interest of Noteholders, the Loan Trustee and,
upon the written request of the Loan Trustee, the Company, shall execute and
deliver an indenture supplemental hereto and all other instruments and
agreements necessary or proper to remove any additional or separate trustee. The
Loan Trustee may act on behalf of the Company under this Section 8.02(c) when
and to the extent it could so act under Section 8.02(a) hereof. In any case, the
Company may remove an additional or separate trustee in the manner set forth in
Section 8.01.

         Section 9.01. Amendments to this Indenture without Consent of Holders.
At any time after the date hereof, the Company and the Loan Trustee may enter

the Lien of this Indenture the Airframe or Engines or any Replacement Airframe
or Replacement Engine; (viii) to add to the covenants of the Company for the
benefit of the Noteholders, or to surrender any rights or power herein conferred
upon the Company; (ix) to add to the rights of the Noteholders; (x) to include

issuance of Series E Equipment Notes and/or Pass Through Certificates issued by
the Class E Pass Through Trust and to make changes relating thereto, provided
that (A) the Company shall have obtained written confirmation from each Rating
Agency that the issuance of the Series E Equipment Notes would not result in a
reduction of the rating for any class of Pass Through Certificates below the
then current rating for such class of Pass Through Certificates or a withdrawal
or suspension of the rating of any class of Pass Through Certificates and (B)
(1) if the Series E Equipment Notes are issued to a Class E Pass Through Trust,
the Pass Through Trustee thereof shall become a party to the Intercreditor
Agreement or (2) if Series E Equipment Notes are issued to any person other than
a Class E Pass Through Trust, the Series E Equipment Notes will be subject to
the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement that allow the "Controlling Party"
(as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), during the continuance of an
"Indenture Event of Default" (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) to
direct the Loan Trustee in taking action under this Indenture.

         Section 9.02. Amendments to this Indenture with Consent of Holders.

         (a) With the written consent of a Majority in Interest of Noteholders,
the Company may, and the Loan Trustee shall, subject to Section 9.06, at any

provisions to or to change or eliminate any provisions of this Indenture or of
any such supplemental agreements or to modify in any manner the rights and
obligations of the Company, the Loan Trustee and of the Noteholders under this
Indenture; provided, however, that without the consent of each Noteholder
affected thereby, an amendment under this Section 9.02 may not:

                  (1) reduce the principal amount of, Make-Whole Amount, if any,
         or interest on, any Equipment Note;

                  (2) change the date on which any principal amount of,
         Make-Whole Amount, if any, or interest on any Equipment Note, is due or
         payable;

                  (3) create any Lien with respect to the Collateral prior to or
         pari passu with the Lien thereon under this Indenture except such as
         are permitted by this Indenture, or deprive any Noteholder of the
         benefit of the Lien on the Collateral created by this Indenture;

                  (4) reduce the percentage of the outstanding principal amount
         of the Equipment Notes the consent of whose holders is required for any
         such supplemental agreement, or the consent of whose holders is
         required for any waiver of compliance with certain provisions of this
         Indenture or of certain defaults hereunder or their consequences
         provided for in this Indenture; or

         affected thereby.

         (b) It is not necessary under this Section 9.02 for the Noteholders to

any supplemental agreement pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.02, the
Loan Trustee shall transmit by first-class mail a notice, setting forth in

Liquidity Provider contained therein.

         Section 9.04. Revocation and Effect of Consents. Until an amendment or

                  case if such option had not been exercised and (y) the Company
                  shall have obtained written confirmation from each Rating
                  Agency that the exercise by the Company of its option under
                  this subsection (ii) would not result in a reduction of the
                  rating for any class of Pass Through Certificates below the
                  then current rating for such class of Pass Through
                  Certificates or a withdrawal or suspension of the rating of
                  any class of Pass Through Certificates;

                           (2) all other amounts then due and payable hereunder
                  have been paid;

                           (3) the Company has delivered to the Loan Trustee an
                  officer's certificate and an opinion of counsel, each stating
                  that all conditions precedent provided for relating to the
                  satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture contemplated by
                  this Section 10.01 have been complied with;

                           (4) such deposit will not result in a breach or
                  violation of, or constitute an Event of Default under, this
                  Indenture or a default or event of default under any other
                  agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by
                  which it is bound; and

                           (5) no Event of Default set forth in Sections
                  4.01(f), (g), (h) or (i) shall have occurred and be continuing
                  on the date of such deposit or at any time during the period
                  ending on the 91st day after the date of such deposit;

the Company and the Loan Trustee shall be deemed to have been released and
discharged from their respective obligations hereunder and under the Equipment
Notes, and the Loan Trustee shall, upon the written request of the Company,
execute and deliver to, or as directed in writing by, the Company an appropriate
instrument (in due form for recording) releasing the Aircraft and the balance of
the Collateral from the Lien of this Indenture, and, in such event, this
Indenture and the trusts created hereby shall terminate and this Indenture shall
be of no further force or effect; provided, however, that this Indenture and the
trusts created hereby shall earlier terminate and this Indenture shall be of no
further force or effect upon any sale or other final disposition by the Loan
Trustee of all property constituting part of the Collateral and the final

constituting part of the Collateral in accordance with the terms hereof. Except
as otherwise provided above, this Indenture and the trusts created hereby shall

2.05, 2.07, 2.08, 2.09, 2.13, 2.15, 2.16, 3.01, 10.01(c) and 10.01(d) of this

of the Loan Trustee, shall survive.

         (c) All monies and U.S. Government Obligations deposited with the Loan
Trustee pursuant to Section 10.01(a)(ii) shall be held in trust and applied by
it, in accordance with the provisions of the Equipment Notes and this Indenture,
to the payment to the Noteholders of all sums due and to become due thereon for
principal and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds
except to the extent required by law.

         (d) The Loan Trustee shall promptly pay or return to the Company upon
request of the Company any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it at
any time that are not required for the payment of the amounts described above in
Section 10.01(c) on the Equipment Notes for which money or U.S. Government
Obligations have been deposited pursuant to Section 10.01(a)(ii).

         Section 10.02. No Legal Title to Collateral in Noteholders. No
Noteholder shall have legal title to any part of the Collateral. No transfer, by
operation of law or otherwise, of any Equipment Note or other right, title and
interest of any Noteholder in and to the Collateral or hereunder shall operate
to terminate this Indenture or entitle such Noteholder or any successor or
transferee of such holder to an accounting or to the transfer to it of any legal
title to any part of the Collateral.

         Section 10.03. Sale of Aircraft by Loan Trustee is Binding. Any sale or

necessity, expediency or regularity of such sale or conveyance or as to the
application of any sale or other proceeds with respect thereto by the
Noteholders.

         Section 10.04. Indenture for Benefit of the Company, Loan Trustee and
Noteholders. Nothing in this Indenture, whether express or implied, shall be
