Upon receipt of such notice, all rights and obligations of the parties with respect to an Option Aircraft for which the option to purchase has been cancelled shall thereupon terminate.

If an option is cancelled as provided above, Boeing shall promptly refund to Buyer, without interest, any payments received from Buyer with respect to the affected Option Aircraft.  Boeing shall be entitled to retain the Option Deposit unless cancellation is attributable to Boeing's fault, in which case the Option Deposit shall also be returned to Buyer without interest.

7.Applicability.

Except as otherwise specifically provided, limited or excluded herein, all Option Aircraft that are added to the Agreement by an Option Aircraft Supplemental Agreement as firm Aircraft shall benefit from all the applicable terms, conditions and provisions of the Agreement.

7.Right of First Refusal for Additional Aircraft Requirements.

In recognition of the significant financial impact to Boeing resulting from rescheduling and substitution of these Restructured Aircraft, Customer hereby agrees to [CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT].  The foregoing right of first refusal shall not be construed to apply to the following aircraft or transactions:

	aircraft acquired by Customer through a merger with or acquisition of a certified air carrier (or all or substantially all of such air carrier's assets so long as a material portion of the assets being acquired consist of assets other than aircraft) operating such aircraft at the time of merger or acquisition, or having firm purchase agreements for the acquisition thereof; or
	the renegotiation by Customer of aircraft leases with unexpired lease terms whereby Customer chooses to replace older leased aircraft with newer leased aircraft provided by one or more third parties or to reduce the number of leased aircraft in Customer's fleet, so long as after giving effect to such transactions, there is no material net increase in the lease term or the number of leased aircraft in Customer's fleet or a resulting adverse impact on Customer's acquisition of the Restructured Aircraft; or
	aircraft currently leased by the Customer or any of its subsidiaries (including any extensions of the lease term or purchase of such aircraft).

8.BFE/SPE and Vendor Charges. 

Customer shall be solely responsible for payment of any BFE/SPE or vendor price changes resulting from the substitution and rescheduling of these Restructured Aircraft.

9.Option Aircraft.

9.1Customer's Model 737 Option Aircraft delivery positions are hereby revised in accordance with the schedule in Attachment B to this Letter Agreement to accommodate Customer's request and changes to Boeing's production schedules necessitated by the rescheduling of the Restructured Aircraft. 

9.2Boeing and Customer hereby agree to substitute twelve (12) Model 737-900 Option Aircraft for two (2) Model 777-200ER Option Aircraft and two (2) Model 767-200ER Option Aircraft as specified in Attachment B. Option Deposits on the Model 777-200ER and Model 767-200ER Option Aircraft totaling One Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,200,000) will be applied to the Model 737-900 Option Aircraft at One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) per Aircraft.

10.Confidential Treatment.

Customer understands that Boeing considers certain commercial and financial information contained in this Letter Agreement and the attachments hereto as confidential.  Customer agrees that it will treat this Letter Agreement and the information contained herein as confidential and will not, without the prior written consent of Boeing, disclose this Letter Agreement or any information contained herein to any other person or entity except as may be required by applicable law or governmental regulations; provided that the Customer may disclose this Letter Agreement to [CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] for the purpose of obtaining its consent (if any such consent is required) under the Credit Agreement dated as of January 12, 2001.

Very truly yours,
