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

     (f) Claims Procedure. An Indemnitee shall promptly notify Company of any
Claim as to which indemnification is sought. The failure to provide such prompt notice
shall not release Company from any of its obligations to indemnify hereunder except to the
extent that Company is prejudiced by such failure or Company’s indemnification obligations
are increased as a result of such failure (in which event Company shall not be responsible
for such additional indemnification obligations). Such Indemnitee shall promptly submit to
Company all additional information in such Indemnitee’s possession to substantiate such
Claim as Company reasonably requests. Subject to the rights of Company’s insurers, Company
may, at its sole cost and expense, investigate any Claim, and may in its sole discretion
defend or compromise any Claim. At Company’s expense, any Indemnitee shall cooperate with
all reasonable requests of 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 Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless
such Indemnitee waives its right to be indemnified with respect to such Claim. Where
Company or its insurers 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 Company or such insurers. Subject to the requirements of any policy of
insurance, an Indemnitee may participate at its own expense in any judicial proceeding
controlled by Company pursuant to the preceding provisions; provided that such
party’s participation does not, in the opinion of outside counsel appointed by Company or
its insurers to conduct such proceedings, interfere with such control. Such participation
shall not constitute a waiver of the indemnification provided in this Section 4.02.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Company shall not under any
circumstances be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all
Indemnitees with respect to any one Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, an Indemnitee shall not under any circumstances be required or deemed to
be required to contest any

Participation Agreement (2010-2 EETC)
[Reg. No.]

17

 

Claim or to assume responsibility for or control of any judicial proceeding with
respect thereto. Company will provide the relevant Indemnitee with such information not
within the control of such Indemnitee, as is in Company’s control or is reasonably
available to Company, which such Indemnitee may reasonably request and will otherwise
cooperate with such Indemnitee so as to enable such Indemnitee to fulfill its obligations
under this Section.

     (g) Subrogation. To the extent that a Claim is in fact paid in full by
Company or its insurer, 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
Company or such insurer, as the case may be, to permit Company or such insurer to pursue
such rights and remedies, if any, to the extent reasonably requested by Company. So long as
no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, if an Indemnitee receives any payment,
in whole or in part, from any party other than Company or its insurers with respect to any
Claim paid by Company or its insurers, it shall promptly pay over to Company the amount
received (but not an amount in excess of the amount 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 Company shall not be paid to Company, or, if it has been previously paid directly to
Company, shall not be retained by Company, if at the time of such payment an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, but shall be paid to and held by Loan Trustee as
security for the obligations of Company under the Operative Documents. If Company agrees,
such amount payable shall be applied against Company’s obligations thereunder when and as
they become due and payable. At such time as such Event of Default is no longer continuing,
such amount, to the extent not previously so applied against Company’s obligations, shall
be paid to Company.

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

     (i) Payments; Interest. Any amount payable to any Indemnitee on account of a
Claim shall be paid within 30 days after receipt by Company 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 Company, as the case may be, shall be made in immediately available funds at

Participation Agreement (2010-2 EETC)
[Reg. No.]

18

 

such bank or to such account as is specified by the payee in written directions to the
payor or, if no such directions are 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 is paid. Such interest shall be
paid in the same manner as the unpaid amount in respect of which such interest is due.

     (j) Tax Deduction or Credit. If, by reason of any payment made to or for the
account of any Indemnitee by Company, or by reason of any Claim of any Indemnitee paid or
indemnified against by Company, in each case pursuant to Section 4.02, such Indemnitee
realizes a Tax deduction or credit not previously taken into account in computing such
payment, such Indemnitee shall promptly pay to Company an amount equal to the sum of
(i) the actual reduction in Taxes realized by such Indemnitee which is attributable
to such deduction or credit, and (ii) the actual reduction in Taxes realized by
such Indemnitee as a result of any payment made by such Indemnitee pursuant to this
sentence; provided that the amount payable by such Indemnitee pursuant to this
sentence shall not exceed the sum of all amounts previously paid by Company to such
Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 4.02; provided, further, that any such
excess shall be carried forward and applied to reduce pro tanto any subsequent obligations
of Company to make payments to such Indemnitee pursuant to Section 4.02. If such Tax
deduction or credit is subsequently disallowed or lost, upon written notice from the
Indemnitee Company shall promptly repay all amounts paid to it pursuant to this Section
4.02(j) in respect of such disallowed or lost deduction or credit. If, at the time an
amount would otherwise be payable to Company under this Section 4.02(j), any Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such amount shall be held by the relevant
Indemnitee as security for the obligations of Company under the Operative Documents. At
such time as no Event of Default is continuing, such amount or portion thereof shall be
applied to offset Company’s outstanding obligations under the Operative Documents and any
remaining amount after such application shall be paid to Company.

registration under the Cape Town Treaty, or if the Aircraft is, at the time, not
registered with the FAA, such Person makes such filings and recordings with the
applicable aviation authority, as are necessary to evidence such consolidation,
merger, conveyance, transfer or lease;

     (iii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Event of Default

assumption agreement mentioned in clause (i) above comply with this Section
6.02(e) and that all conditions precedent herein relating to such transaction have
been complied with (except that such opinion need not cover the matters referred to

officer of 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 Company as an entirety in accordance with this Section

or to which such conveyance, transfer or lease is made shall succeed to, and be substituted

entitled to any of the benefits of Section 1110 with respect to the Aircraft.

Subordination Agent’s request from time to time but in any event no more frequently than
once every three months, provide to the Subordination Agent a statement setting forth the
following information with respect to the Aircraft if then subject to the lien of the
Indenture: (A) whether the Aircraft is currently in service or parked in storage,
(B) the maintenance status of the Aircraft, and (C) the location of the
Engines. As used in this Section 6.02(g), the terms “Triggering Event”, “Indenture Event
