sale) and the purchaser(s) shall assume all of such Applicable
Certificateholder's obligations under this Agreement, the Intercreditor

the Reference Agency Agreement, the Note Documents and all such Applicable

date payment of the purchase price is made notwithstanding the failure of any
Applicable Certificateholder to deliver any Applicable Certificate and, upon
such a purchase, (i) the only rights of the Applicable Certificateholders will
be to deliver the Applicable Certificates and (ii) if the purchaser(s) shall so
request, each such Applicable Certificateholder will comply with all the
provisions of Section 3.04 of the Basic Agreement to enable new Applicable
Certificates to be issued to the purchaser(s) in such denominations as it shall
request. All charges and expenses in connection with the issuance of any such

provision of Section 6.01(d) of the Basic Agreement, replaces the provisions of
Section 6.01(d) of the Basic Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
set forth herein or in any Operative Agreement, the provisions of this Section
4.01 may not be amended in any manner without the consent of each Class C
Certificateholder, Class D Certificateholder or Class E Certificateholder, if
any, that would be adversely affected thereby.

            provision of such guarantee will not result in a withdrawal or
            downgrading of the rating of the Applicable Certificates (without
            regard to the Policy)); or

      (13)  to correct or supplement the description of any property

            Provider Agreement and/or Section 3.07 of the Intercreditor
            Agreement.

provided, however, that, unless there shall have been obtained from each Rating
Agency written confirmation that such supplemental agreement would not result in
a reduction of the rating for any

Class of Certificates below the then current rating for such Class of
Certificates or a withdrawal or suspension of the rating of any Class of
Certificates, the Company shall provide the Trustee with an opinion of counsel
(i) if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to the effect
that such supplemental agreement will not cause the Trust to become an
association taxable as a corporation for United States federal income tax
purposes or (ii) in other circumstances, to the effect that such supplemental
agreement will not cause the Trust to be treated as other than a grantor trust
for United States federal income tax purposes."

      "Section 9.02. Supplemental Agreements with Consent of Certificateholders.
With respect to each separate Trust and the series of Certificates relating
thereto, with the consent of the Certificateholders holding Certificates of such
series (including consents obtained in connection with a consent solicitation,
tender offer or exchange offer for the Certificates) evidencing Fractional
Undivided Interests aggregating not less than a majority in interest in such
Trust, by Direction of said Certificateholders delivered to the Company and the
Trustee, the Company may, but shall not be obligated to, and the Trustee
(subject to Section 9.03) shall, enter into an agreement or agreements
supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in
any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement, the
Intercreditor Agreement, the Participation Agreements, the Reference Agency
Agreement, any Liquidity Facility, the Policy or the Policy Provider Agreement
to the extent applicable to such Certificateholders or of modifying in any
manner the rights and obligations of such Certificateholders under this
Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Participation Agreements, the
Reference Agency Agreement, any Liquidity Facility, the Policy or Policy
Provider Agreement; provided, however, that no such agreement shall, without the
consent of the Certificateholder of each Outstanding Certificate adversely
affected thereby:

            any Certificate of such series, or change any date of payment on any
            Certificate of such series, or change the place of payment where, or
            the coin or currency in which, any Certificate of such series is
            payable (other than as provided for in such Certificate), or impair
            the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment
            or distribution on or after the Regular Distribution Date or Special
            Distribution Date applicable thereto; or

      (2)   except as permitted by this Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement
            or any Liquidity Facility, permit the disposition of any Equipment

            deprive such Certificateholder of the benefit of the ownership of
            the Equipment Notes in such Trust; or

      (3)   alter the priority of distributions specified in the Intercreditor
            Agreement in a manner materially adverse to the interests of the
            Certificateholders of any series; or

      (4)   reduce the percentage of the aggregate Fractional Undivided
            Interests of such Trust, the consent of the holders of which is
            required for any such supplemental agreement,

            with certain provisions of this Agreement or certain defaults
            hereunder and their consequences) or modification provided for in
            this Agreement; or

                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

      Section 7.01. Final Termination Date. The respective obligations and
responsibilities of the Company and the Trustee created hereby and the
Applicable Trust created hereby shall terminate upon the distribution to all
Certificateholders of Applicable Certificates and the Trustee of all amounts
required to be distributed to them pursuant to this Agreement and the
disposition of all property held as part of the Trust Property; provided,
however, that in no event shall the Trust created hereby continue beyond the
expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of
Joseph P. Kennedy, Sr., the father of John F. Kennedy, former President of the
United States, living on the date of this Trust Supplement.

      Section 7.02. Basic Agreement Ratified. Except and so far as herein
expressly provided, all of the provisions, terms and conditions of the Basic
Agreement are in all respects ratified and confirmed; and the Basic Agreement
and this Trust Supplement shall be taken, read and construed as one and the same
instrument.

      Section 7.03. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT HAS BEEN DELIVERED IN THE
STATE OF NEW YORK AND THIS AGREEMENT AND THE APPLICABLE CERTIFICATES SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK,
INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, AND THE
OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL
BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

      Section 7.04. Counterparts. This Trust Supplement may be executed in any
number of counterparts (and each of the parties shall not be required to execute
the same counterpart). Each

                                       18
<PAGE>
counterpart of this Trust Supplement including a signature page or pages
executed by each of the parties hereto shall be an original counterpart of this
Trust Supplement, but all of such counterparts together shall constitute one
instrument.

      Section 7.05. Intention of Parties. The parties hereto intend that the
Applicable Trust be classified for United States federal income tax purposes as
a grantor trust under Part 1E of Chapter 1J of Subtitle A of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and not as a trust or association taxable as a
corporation or as a partnership. Each Applicable Certificateholder of an
Applicable Certificate, by its acceptance of its Applicable Certificate or a
beneficial interest therein, agrees to treat the Applicable Trust as a grantor
trust for all United States federal, state and local income tax purposes. The
Trustee shall not be authorized or empowered to do anything that would cause the
Applicable Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust for such tax purposes
(including as subject to this restriction, acquiring any Aircraft by bidding the
Equipment Notes relating thereto or otherwise, or taking any action with respect
to any such Aircraft once acquired).

         Section 7.06. Notices. The Trustee agrees, in addition to the
agreements contained in Section 12.04 of the Basic Agreement, that notices to
the Applicable Certificateholders in respect of the Applicable Certificates
regarding (i) a Special Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.02(c) of the
Basic Agreement, (ii) the final distribution pursuant to Section 7.01 of this
Trust Supplement, (iii) a default pursuant to Section 7.02 of the Basic
Agreement or (iv) the appointment of a successor Luxembourg Paying Agent
pursuant to Section 3.08 of this Trust Supplement, shall, so long as any of the
Applicable Certificates are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the
rules of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange so require, promptly after such mailing
also to be published in the Luxemburger Wort or in another daily newspaper
having general circulation in Luxembourg (or, if not practical in Luxembourg,
elsewhere in Europe.) Without limiting the foregoing, if and for so long as any
of the Applicable Certificates are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, the
Trustee agrees to cause to be published or disseminated in Europe such notices,
and any other notices to the Applicable Certificateholders required by the rules
of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, as the rules of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange
require or as may be reasonably required by the Company.

         The Trustee agrees to promptly furnish to S &P (at its address at 55
Water Street, 39th Floor, New York, New York, 10041-0003, Attention: Philip A.
Baggaley, or such other address as S&P may notify the Trustee), Moody's (at its
address at 99 Church Street, New York, New York 10007, Attention: Richard
Bittenbender, or such other address as Moody's may notify the Trustee) and the
Policy Provider (at its address specified in the Intercreditor Agreement) a copy
of each notice, statement, report or other written communication sent by the
Trustee to each Applicable Certificateholder.

                                       19
<PAGE>
      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Trust Supplement to be
duly executed by their respective officers thereto duly authorized as of the
date first written above.

Supplement No. 2002-1G thereto dated as of September 24, 2002 (collectively, the
"Agreement"), between the Trustee and American Airlines, Inc., a corporation
incorporated under Delaware law (the "Company"), a summary of certain of the
pertinent provisions of which is set forth below. To the extent not otherwise
defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to
them in the Agreement. This Certificate is one of the duly authorized
Certificates designated as "American Airlines Pass Through Certificates, Series
2002- 1G" (herein called the "Certificates"). This Certificate is issued under
and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement. By
virtue of its acceptance hereof, the Certificateholder of this Certificate
assents to and agrees to be bound by all of the provisions of the Agreement and
the Intercreditor Agreement, including the subordination provisions of Section
9.09 of the Intercreditor Agreement. The property of the Trust (the "Trust
Property") includes certain Equipment Notes and all rights of the Trust and the
Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, to receive any payments under the Intercreditor
Agreement, the Class G Primary Liquidity Facility, the Class G Above-Cap
Liquidity Facility and the Policy. Each issue of the Equipment Notes is or will
be secured by, among other things, a security interest in Aircraft owned by the
Company.

      The Certificates represent Fractional Undivided Interests in the Trust and
the Trust Property, and will have no rights, benefits or interest in respect of
any other separate trust established pursuant to the terms of the Basic
Agreement for any other series of certificates issued pursuant thereto.

      Subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and the
Intercreditor Agreement, from funds then available to the Trustee, there will be
distributed on each March 23, June 23, September 23 and December 23 (a "Regular
Distribution Date"), commencing on December 23, 2002, to the Person in whose
name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the 15th day
preceding the Regular Distribution Date, an amount in respect of the principal
and interest constituting Scheduled Payments on the Equipment Notes due on such
Regular Distribution Date, the receipt of which has been confirmed by the
Trustee, equal to the product of the percentage interest in the Trust evidenced
by this Certificate and an amount equal to the sum of such Scheduled Payments.
Subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and the
Intercreditor Agreement, in the event that Special Payments on the Equipment
Notes are received by the Trustee, from funds then available to the Trustee,
there shall be distributed on the applicable Special Distribution Date, to the
Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on
the 15th day preceding the Special Distribution Date, an amount in respect of
such Special Payments on the Equipment Notes, the receipt of which has been
confirmed by the Trustee, equal to the product of the percentage interest in the
Trust evidenced by this Certificate and an amount equal to the sum of such
Special Payments so received. If a Regular Distribution Date or Special
Distribution Date is not a Business Day, distribution shall be made on the
immediately following Business Day and interest shall accrue during the
intervening period. The Trustee shall mail notice of each Special Payment and
the Special Distribution Date therefor to the Certificateholder of this
Certificate.

                                       A-2
<PAGE>
      Distributions on this Certificate will be made by the Trustee by check
mailed to the Person entitled thereto, without the presentation or surrender of
this Certificate or the making of any notation hereon, except that with respect
to Certificates registered on the Record Date in the name of a Clearing Agency
(or its nominee), such distributions shall be made by wire transfer. Except as
otherwise provided in the Agreement and notwithstanding the above, the final
distribution on this Certificate will be made after notice mailed by the Trustee
of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of
this Certificate at the office or agency of the Trustee specified in such
notice.

      The Certificates do not represent a direct obligation of, or an obligation
guaranteed by, or an interest in, the Company, the Trustee, the Subordination
Agent or any Loan Trustee or any Affiliate of any thereof. The Certificates are
limited in right of payment, all as more specifically set forth on the face
hereof and in the Agreement. All payments or distributions made to
Certificateholders under the Agreement shall be made only from the Trust
Property and only to the extent that the Trustee shall have sufficient income or
proceeds from the Trust Property to make such payments in accordance with the
terms of the Agreement. Each Certificateholder of this Certificate, by its
acceptance hereof, agrees that it will look solely to the income and proceeds
from the Trust Property to the extent available for any payment or distribution
to such Certificateholder pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and that it
will not have any recourse to the Company, the Trustee, the Subordination Agent
or the Loan Trustees except as otherwise expressly provided in the Agreement, in
any Note Document or in the Intercreditor Agreement. This Certificate does not
purport to summarize the Agreement and reference is made to the Agreement for
information with respect to the interests, rights, benefits, obligations,
proceeds and duties evidenced hereby. A copy of the Agreement may be examined
during normal business hours at the principal office of the Trustee, and at such
other places, if any, designated by the Trustee, by any Certificateholder upon
request.

      The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Company and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time
by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Certificateholders
holding Certificates evidencing Fractional Undivided Interests aggregating not
less than a majority in interest in the Trust. Any such consent by the
Certificateholder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such
Certificateholder and upon all future Certificateholders of this Certificate and
of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in
lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this
Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain
limited circumstances, without the consent of the Certificateholders of any of
the Certificates.

      As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth
therein, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Register upon
surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or
agencies maintained by the Trustee in its capacity as Registrar, or by any
successor Registrar duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Registrar, duly executed by
the

                                       A-3
<PAGE>
Certificateholder hereof or such Certificateholder's attorney duly authorized in
writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of authorized denominations
evidencing the same aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest in the Trust will be
issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

      The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without
coupons in minimum denominations of $1,000 Fractional Undivided Interest and
integral multiples thereof except that one Certificate may be issued in a
different denomination. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new
Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate
Fractional Undivided Interest in the Trust, as requested by the
Certificateholder surrendering the same.

      If and so long as any of the Certificates are listed on the Luxembourg
Stock Exchange and the rules of that stock exchange so require, notices to the
Certificateholders shall be given by publication in a daily newspaper having
general circulation in Luxembourg (which is expected to be the Luxemburger
Wort).

      No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Trustee shall require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

      The Company, the Trustee, the Registrar and any Paying Agent shall deem
and treat the person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner
hereof for all purposes, and none of the Company, the Trustee, the Registrar or
any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

      The obligations and responsibilities created by the Agreement and the
Trust created thereby shall terminate upon the distribution to
Certificateholders of all amounts required to be distributed to them pursuant to
the Agreement and the disposition of all property held as part of the Trust
Property.

      Any Person acquiring or accepting this Certificate or an interest herein
will, by such acquisition or acceptance, be deemed to represent and warrant to
the Company, the Loan Trustees and the Trustee that either: (i) no assets of an
employee benefit plan subject to Title I of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), or of an employee benefit plan or an
individual retirement account subject to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") or of a governmental or church plan, or
any trust established under such plan or account, have been used to purchase
this Certificate or an interest herein or (ii) the purchase and holding of this
Certificate or interest herein by such Person are exempt from the prohibited
transaction restrictions of ERISA and the Code or any provisions of state or
federal laws or regulations that are substantially similar to the foregoing
provisions of ERISA and the Code, as applicable, pursuant to one or more
prohibited transaction statutory or administrative exemptions.

entering into the Policy Provider Agreement, and each Liquidity Provider, by
entering into the Liquidity Facility to which it is a party, has agreed to look
solely to such amounts to the extent available for distribution to it as
provided in this Agreement or the applicable Trust Agreement, as the case may
be, and that none of the Trustees, Loan Trustees or the Subordination Agent is
personally liable to any of them for any amounts payable or any liability under
this Agreement, any Trust Agreement, any Liquidity Facility, the Policy Provider
Agreement or such Certificate, except (in the case of the Subordination Agent)
as expressly provided herein or (in the case of the Trustees) as expressly
provided herein and in each Trust Agreement or (in the case of the Loan
Trustees) as expressly provided in any Operative Agreement.

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement and in the other
Operative Agreements, the Certificates do not represent indebtedness of the
related Trust, and references in this Agreement and the Operative Agreements to
accrued interest or principal amounts payable on the Certificates of any Class
are included only for computational purposes. For purposes of such computations,
the Certificates of any Class shall be deemed to be comprised of interest and
principal components, with the principal component deemed to be the Pool
Balance, and the interest component deemed to equal interest accruing at the
Stated Interest Rate for such Class of Certificates from (i) the later of (1)
the date of the issuance thereof and (2) the most recent but preceding
Distribution Date to which such interest was distributed to, but excluding, (ii)
the applicable date of determination, such interest to be considered payable in
arrears and to be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve
30-day months (in the case of the Class C

                                       28
<PAGE>
and Class D Certificates) or on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed
over a 360-day year (in the case of the Class G Certificates).

     Section 2.02 Trust Accounts. (a) Upon the execution of this Agreement, the
Subordination Agent shall establish and maintain in its name (i) the Collection
Account as an Eligible Deposit Account, bearing a designation clearly indicating
that the funds deposited therein are held in trust for the benefit of the
Trustees, the Certificateholders, the Primary Liquidity Providers and the Policy
Provider, (ii) as a sub-account in the Collection Account, the Special Payments
Account as an Eligible Deposit Account, bearing a designation clearly indicating
that the funds deposited therein are held in trust for the benefit of the
Trustees, the Certificateholders, the Primary Liquidity Providers and the Policy
Provider, (iii) a Class G Policy Account as an Eligible Deposit Account bearing
a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held in
trust for the benefit of the Class G Trustee and the Class G Certificateholders
and (iv) a Class G Above-Cap Account as an Eligible Deposit Account bearing a
designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held in
trust for the benefit of the Class G Trustee and Class G Certificateholders. The
Subordination Agent shall establish and maintain the Cash Collateral Accounts
pursuant to and under the circumstances set forth in Section 3.06(f). Upon such
establishment and maintenance under Section 3.06(f), the Cash Collateral
Accounts shall, together with the Collection Account, the Policy Account and the
Above-Cap Account, constitute the "Trust Accounts" hereunder. Without limiting
the foregoing, all monies credited to the Trust Accounts shall be, and shall
remain, the property of the relevant Trust(s).

     (b) Funds on deposit in the Trust Accounts shall be invested and reinvested
by the Subordination Agent in Eligible Investments selected by American or its
designated representative if such investments are reasonably available and have
maturities no later than the earlier of (i) 90 days following the date of such
investment and (ii) the Business Day immediately preceding the Regular
Distribution Date or the date of the related distribution pursuant to Section
2.04, as the case may be, next following the date of such investment; provided,
however, that, (x) following the making of a Downgrade Drawing or a
Non-Extension Drawing under any Primary Liquidity Facility, the Subordination
Agent shall invest and reinvest the amounts in the applicable Primary Cash
Collateral Account in Eligible Investments pursuant to the written instructions
of American and (y) the Subordination Agent shall invest and reinvest funds on
deposit in the Above-Cap Account and the Above-Cap Reserve Account in the manner
specified in Schedule 2.02(b) attached hereto (subject to the foregoing
limitation on the maturity of such investments), and provided further, however,
that upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Triggering Event, the
Subordination Agent shall invest and reinvest such amounts (other than amounts
in the Above-Cap Reserve Account, which shall be governed by the foregoing
proviso) in Eligible Investments in accordance with the written

                                       29
<PAGE>
instructions of the Controlling Party. Unless otherwise expressly provided in
this Agreement (including, without limitation, with respect to Investment
Earnings on amounts on deposit in the Above-Cap Account and the Cash Collateral
Accounts, in each case as provided in Section 3.06(f)), any Investment Earnings
shall be deposited in the Collection Account when received by the Subordination
Agent and shall be applied by the Subordination Agent in the same manner as the
other amounts on deposit in the Collection Account are to be applied. The
Subordination Agent's reasonable fees and expenses in making such investments
and any losses incurred in such investments shall be charged against the
principal amount invested. The Subordination Agent shall not be liable for any
loss resulting from any investment, reinvestment or liquidation required to be
made under this Agreement other than by reason of its willful misconduct or
negligence. Eligible Investments and any other investment required to be made
hereunder shall be held to their maturities except that any such investment may
be sold (without regard to its maturity) by the Subordination Agent without
instructions whenever such sale is necessary to make a distribution required
under this Agreement. Uninvested funds held hereunder shall not earn or accrue
interest.

     (c) The Subordination Agent shall possess all right, title and interest in
all funds on deposit from time to time in the Trust Accounts and in all proceeds
thereof (including all income thereon, except as otherwise expressly provided
herein with respect to Investment Earnings). The Trust Accounts shall be held in
trust by the Subordination Agent under the sole dominion and control of the
Subordination Agent for the benefit of the Trustees, the Certificateholders, the
Liquidity Providers and the Policy Providers, as the case may be. If, at any
time, any of the Trust Accounts ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the
Subordination Agent shall within 10 Business Days (or such longer period, not to
exceed 30 calendar days, to which each Rating Agency may consent) establish a
new Collection Account, Special Payments Account, Cash Collateral Account,
Policy Account or Above-Cap Account, as the case may be, as an Eligible Deposit
Account and shall transfer any cash and/or any investments to such new
Collection Account, Special Payments Account, Cash Collateral Account, Policy
Account or Above-Cap Account, as the case may be. So long as the Subordination
Agent is an Eligible Institution, the Trust Accounts shall be maintained with it
as Eligible Deposit Accounts.

     Section 2.03 Deposits to the Collection Account and Special Payments
Account; Certain Distributions. (a) The Subordination Agent shall, on each day
when one or more Scheduled Payments (other than any Scheduled Payment which by
the express terms hereof is to be deposited to the Policy Account or a Cash
Collateral Account) are made to the Subordination Agent as holder of the
Equipment Notes, deposit in the Collection Account the aggregate amount of such
Scheduled Payments.

                                       30
<PAGE>
     (b) The Subordination Agent shall, on each day when one or more Special
Payments are made to the Subordination Agent as holder of the Equipment Notes,
deposit in the Special Payments Account the aggregate amount of such Special
Payments.

     (c) In the event that a Loan Trustee distributes to the Subordination Agent
pursuant to Section 3.04 or clause "first" of Section 3.03 of any Indenture any
amounts payable under clause (c), (d) or (e) of Section 2.14 of any Indenture,
the Subordination Agent shall promptly deposit such amounts in the Collection
Account. The Subordination Agent will distribute promptly upon receipt thereof
(or in the case of any such payment, compensation or reimbursement in respect of
the Subordination Agent, will retain) (i) any indemnity payment received by it
from American in respect of any Trustee, the Subordination Agent, the Policy
Provider or any Liquidity Provider (collectively, the "Payees") and (ii) any
compensation or reimbursement received by it from American or the Loan Trustee
under any Operative Agreement in respect of any Payee (including, without
limitation, any fees payable to any Liquidity Provider under Section 2.03 of any
Liquidity Facility or other amounts referred to in clause (a), (b), (f) or (g)
of Section 2.14 of any Indenture), in any such case directly to the Payee
entitled thereto, provided that if such Payee has previously received from the
Collection Account such payment, compensation or reimbursement, then the
Subordination Agent shall deposit such amount in the Collection Account.

     Section 2.04 Distributions of Special Payments. (a) Notice of Special
Payment. Except as provided in Section 2.03(c), upon receipt by the
Subordination Agent, as registered holder of the Equipment Notes, of any notice
of a Special Payment (or, in the absence of any such notice, upon receipt by the
Subordination Agent of a Special Payment), the Subordination Agent shall
promptly give notice thereof to each Trustee, the Primary Liquidity Providers
and the Policy Provider. The Subordination Agent shall promptly calculate the
amount of the prepayment (including upon Acceleration), redemption or purchase
of Equipment Notes or the amount of any Overdue Scheduled Payment, as the case
may be, comprising such Special Payment under the applicable Indenture or
Indentures and shall promptly send to each Trustee and the Primary Liquidity
Providers a Written Notice of such amount and the amount allocable to each
Trust. Such Written Notice shall also set the distribution date for such Special
Payment (a "Special Distribution Date"), which shall be the first Business Day
that follows the later to occur of (x) the 15th day after the date of such
Written Notice or (y) the date the Subordination Agent has received or expects
to receive such Special Payment. Amounts on deposit in the Special Payments
Account shall be distributed in accordance with Sections 2.04(b) and 2.04(c)
hereof, as applicable.

      (b) Redemptions, Purchases and Prepayments of Equipment Notes. (i) So long
as no Triggering Event shall have occurred (whether or not continuing), the
Subordination

                                       31
<PAGE>
Agent shall make distributions pursuant to this Section 2.04(b) of amounts on
deposit in the Special Payments Account on account of the redemption, purchase
(including, without limitation, a purchase resulting from a sale of the
Equipment Notes permitted by Article IV) or prepayment (including upon
Acceleration) of all of the Equipment Notes issued pursuant to an Indenture on
the Special Distribution Date for such Special Payment in the following order of
priority:

     first, such amount as shall be required to pay (A) all accrued and unpaid
Liquidity Expenses and Policy Expenses then in arrears plus (B) the product of
(x) the aggregate amount of all accrued and unpaid Liquidity Expenses and Policy
Expenses not in arrears to such Special Distribution Date multiplied by (y) a
fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate outstanding principal amount
of Equipment Notes being redeemed, purchased or prepaid on such Special
Distribution Date and the denominator of which is the aggregate outstanding
principal amount of all Equipment Notes, shall be distributed to the applicable
Primary Liquidity Provider and Policy Provider, first, in satisfaction of any
past due amounts, then, in satisfaction of the accrued amounts, in each case,
pro rata on the basis of the amount of Liquidity Expenses owed to each Primary
Liquidity Provider and Policy Expenses owed to the Policy Provider;

     second, such amount as shall be required to pay (i) (A) all accrued and

payments made by the Policy Provider to each Primary Liquidity Provider, if any,
in respect of interest on Drawings under the Primary Liquidity Facilities) plus
(B) the aggregate amount of all accrued and unpaid interest on all Liquidity
Obligations not in arrears to such Special Distribution Date (at the rate

Facilities), (ii) if the Class G Primary Liquidity Provider has defaulted in its
obligation to make a payment on any Interest Drawing in respect of the Class G
Certificates, (A) the aggregate amount of interest accrued on the portion of any
Policy Drawing made to cover the shortfall attributable to such default by the
Primary Liquidity Provider at the rate provided in the "except" clause of clause
(ii) of the definition of "Policy Provider Obligations" that is then in arrears
plus (B) the aggregate amount of all accrued and unpaid interest on such Policy
Drawings (at the rate specified in the immediately preceding clause (A)) not in
arrears to such Special Distribution Date and (iii) if the Policy Provider has
elected to pay to each Primary Liquidity Provider all outstanding Drawings and
interest owing to such Primary Liquidity Provider under its Primary Liquidity
Facility pursuant to Section 2.06(c), the amount of such payment made to the
Primary Liquidity Providers attributable to such interest

                                       32
<PAGE>
accrued on such Drawings, shall be distributed in the case of clause (i) above

shall have become a Downgraded Facility or a Non-Extended Facility at a time
when unreimbursed Interest Drawings under such Primary Liquidity Facility have
reduced the Available Amount thereunder to zero, to deposit into the related
Primary Cash Collateral Account an amount equal to such Primary Cash Collateral
Account's Required Amount shall be deposited in such Primary Cash Collateral
Account, (C) if, with respect to any particular Primary Liquidity Facility,

Liquidity Provider, but only after giving effect to the application of amounts,
if any, under subclause (A) or (B) of this clause "third" and if any amount
shall be distributable under subclause (C) of this clause "third", pro rata

amount of unreimbursed Advances under such Primary Liquidity Facility (whether
or not then due, and after giving effect to any payments to be made under
Sections 3.06(f)(iv) and 3.06(f)(vi), as applicable), over (y)

                                       33

     Section 2.06 Controlling Party. (a) The Trustees, the Liquidity Providers
and the Policy Provider hereby agree that, with respect to any Indenture at any
given time, the Loan Trustee thereunder will be directed (i) in taking, or
refraining from taking, any action under such Indenture or with respect to the
Equipment Notes issued thereunder, so long as no Indenture Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing thereunder, by a Majority in Interest of Noteholders
of such Equipment Notes (provided that, for so long as the Subordination Agent
is the registered holder of such Equipment Notes, the Subordination Agent shall
act with respect to this clause (i) in accordance with the directions of the
Trustees of Trusts for which the related Trust Properties include, in the
aggregate, an outstanding principal amount of such Equipment Notes that, if held
by such Trustees directly, would make such Trustees a Majority in Interest of
Noteholders, except that so long as the Final Distributions on the Class G
Certificates have not been made or any Policy Provider Obligations remain
outstanding and no Policy Provider Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Subordination Agent shall act with respect to this clause (i) in
accordance with the directions of the Policy Provider rather than the Class G
Trustee with respect to the Series G Equipment Notes), and (ii) after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Indenture Event of Default
thereunder, in taking, or refraining from taking, any action under such
Indenture or with respect to such Equipment Notes, including exercising remedies
thereunder (including Accelerating the Equipment Notes issued thereunder or
foreclosing the Lien created thereunder on the Aircraft securing such Equipment
Notes), by the Subordination Agent as directed by the Controlling Party.

     (b) Subject to paragraph (c) below, at any time prior to the time that
Final Distributions have been fully paid to the holders of the Class G
Certificates and/or at any time when any obligations payable to the Policy
Provider hereunder remain outstanding, so long as no Policy Provider Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Policy Provider shall be the Controlling Party;
at any other time the Controlling Party shall be: (i) if Final Distributions
have not been fully paid to the holders of the Class G Certificates, the Class G
Trustee; (ii) if Final Distributions have been fully paid to the holders of
Class G Certificates, but not to the holders of the Class C Certificates, the
Class C Trustee; and (iii) if Final Distributions have been fully paid to the
holders of the Class G Certificates and the Class C Certificates, the Class D
Trustee. For purposes of giving effect to the foregoing, the Trustees (other
than the Controlling Party) irrevocably agree (and the Certificateholders (other
than the Certificateholders represented by the Controlling Party) shall be
deemed to agree by virtue of their purchase of Certificates) that the
Subordination

                                       37
<PAGE>
Agent, as record holder of the Equipment Notes, shall exercise its voting rights
in respect of the Equipment Notes as directed by the Controlling Party and any
vote so exercised shall be binding upon the Trustees and all Certificateholders.

     The Subordination Agent shall give written notice to all of the other
parties to this Agreement promptly upon a change in the identity of the
Controlling Party. Each of the parties hereto agrees that it shall not exercise
any of the rights of the Controlling Party at such time as it is not the
Controlling Party hereunder; provided, however, that nothing herein contained
shall prevent or prohibit any Non-Controlling Party from exercising such rights
as shall be specifically granted to such Non-Controlling Party hereunder and
under the other Operative Agreements.

     (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time after 18 months from the
earliest to occur of (i) the date on which the entire Available Amount under any
Primary Liquidity Facility shall have been drawn (for any reason other than a
Downgrade Drawing or a Non-Extension Drawing) and remain unreimbursed, (ii) the
date on which the entire amount of any Downgrade Drawing or Non-Extension
Drawing under any Primary Liquidity Facility shall have become and remain
"Applied Downgrade Advances" or "Applied Non-Extension Advances" or has been
converted into a Final Drawing, as the case may be, under and as defined in such
Primary Liquidity Facility and (iii) the date on which all Equipment Notes shall
have been Accelerated, the Primary Liquidity Provider with the greatest amount
of unreimbursed Liquidity Obligations (but not including a Primary Liquidity
Provider that has defaulted in its obligation to make any advance under its
Primary Liquidity Facility) (the "Eligible Provider") shall have the right to
elect, by Written Notice to the Subordination Agent, the Policy Provider and
each of the Trustees given at any time on or after the fifteenth Business Day
prior to the end of such 18-month period, to become the Controlling Party
hereunder with respect to any Indenture at any time from and including the later
of (x) the last day of such 18-month period and (y) the 15th Business Day after
the date of receipt by the Policy Provider of such Written Notice, provided,
however, that if, within 15 Business Days after its receipt of any such Written
Notice from such Primary Liquidity Provider, the Policy Provider pays to each
Primary Liquidity Provider an amount equal to all outstanding Drawings owing to
each Primary Liquidity Provider in respect of its Primary Liquidity Facility,
and interest accrued thereon to such date, the Policy Provider shall remain the
Controlling Party so long as no Policy Provider Default has occurred and is
continuing and the Policy Provider thereafter pays to the Primary Liquidity
Providers with respect to the Class G Certificates an amount equal to all
subsequent Drawings, together with accrued interest thereon, under the related
Primary Liquidity Facility as and when such Drawings and such interest would
otherwise be required to be paid under the relevant Primary Liquidity Facility
(which payments shall be applied by the Primary Liquidity Provider as repayments
of such Drawings and accrued interest thereon), provided, further, however, that
upon any Policy

                                       38
<PAGE>
Provider Default the Eligible Provider, if it so elects and if Liquidity
Obligations owing to it remain outstanding, shall become the Controlling Party.

     (d) The exercise of remedies by the Controlling Party under this Agreement
shall be expressly limited by Section 4.01(a)(ii).

     (e) The Controlling Party shall not be entitled to require or obligate any
Non-Controlling Party to provide funds necessary to exercise any right or remedy
hereunder.

     (f) Notwithstanding anything contained herein, neither the Controlling

the purposes of this Section 3.04(c) only, each reference in clause "twelfth" of
Section 3.02 to "Distribution Date" shall be deemed to mean the actual date of
payment of such Scheduled Payment and each reference in clause "sixth",
"eighth", "ninth" or "eleventh" of Section 3.02 to "Distribution Date" shall be
deemed to refer to such Scheduled Payment Date.

     Section 3.05 Payments to the Trustees, the Primary Liquidity Providers and
the Policy Provider. Any amounts distributed hereunder to any Primary Liquidity
Provider or the Policy Provider shall be paid to such Primary Liquidity Provider
or the Policy Provider, as applicable, by wire transfer of funds to the address
such Primary Liquidity Provider or the Policy Provider shall provide to the
Subordination Agent. The Subordination Agent shall provide a Written Notice of
any such transfer to the applicable Primary Liquidity Provider or the Policy
Provider, as the case may be, at the time of such transfer. Any amounts
distributed hereunder by the Subordination Agent to any Trustee that is not the
same institution as the Subordination Agent shall be paid to such Trustee by
wire transfer of funds at the address such Trustee shall provide to the
Subordination Agent.

     Section 3.06 Liquidity Facilities. (a) Interest Drawings and Above-Cap
Payments. If on any Distribution Date, after giving effect to the provisions of
this Agreement (including the subordination provisions hereof) and any Election
Interest Payment made by the Policy Provider pursuant to subclause (ii) of
Section 3.07(c), the Subordination Agent shall not have sufficient funds for the
payment of any amounts due and owing in respect of accrued interest on the Class
G Certificates or the Class C Certificates (at the Stated Interest Rate for such
Class of Certificates for the applicable Interest Period) then, prior to 1:00
p.m. (New York City time) on such Distribution Date, (i) the Subordination Agent
shall request a drawing (each such drawing, an "Interest Drawing") under the
Primary Liquidity Facility with respect to such Class of Certificates (and
concurrently with the making of such request, the Subordination Agent shall give
notice to the Policy Provider of such insufficiency of funds) in an amount equal
to the lesser of (x) an amount sufficient to pay the amount of such accrued
interest (at the Stated Interest Rate for each such Class of Certificates for
the applicable Interest Period) and (y) the Available Amount under such Primary
Liquidity Facility, and shall upon receipt of such amount pay such amount to the
Trustee with respect to each such Class of Certificates in payment of such
accrued interest as provided in Section 3.06(b) and (ii) in the case of the
Class G Certificates only, if LIBOR for the Interest Period ending on such
Distribution Date (or, if such Distribution Date is not the last day of an
Interest Period, LIBOR for the Interest Period including such Distribution Date)
exceeds Capped LIBOR, the Subordination Agent shall (if it can make the
certification described in the last sentence of this Section

                                       50
<PAGE>
3.06(a)) request an interest rate cap payment (each such payment, an "Above-Cap
Payment") under the Above-Cap Liquidity Facility, for credit to the Above-Cap
Account in an amount equal to the product of (x) the difference between LIBOR
for the Interest Period ending on such Distribution Date (or, if such
Distribution Date is not the last day of an Interest Period, LIBOR for the
Interest Period including such Distribution Date) and Capped LIBOR, multiplied
by (y) the Pool Balance of such Class of Certificates as of such Distribution
Date (and before giving effect to any distribution on such date), multiplied by
(z) the actual number of days elapsed in the Interest Period ending on such
Distribution Date divided by 360, and upon the receipt thereof the Subordination
Agent shall immediately deposit such Above-Cap Payment into the Above-Cap
Account. If an Interest Drawing with respect to the Class G Certificates on such
Distribution Date pursuant to clause (i) above, together with all other amounts
available to the Subordination Agent on such Distribution Date (after giving
effect to the subordination provisions of this Agreement and any withdrawals
from the Class G Primary Cash Collateral Account (if any)), is insufficient to
pay accrued interest (at the Stated Interest Rate for the Class G Certificates
for the applicable Interest Period) payable on the Class G Certificates on such
Distribution Date (such deficiency, the "Deficiency Amount"), the Subordination
Agent shall, prior to 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Distribution Date,
withdraw (each, an "Above-Cap Withdrawal") from the Above-Cap Account an amount
equal to the lesser of (x) such Deficiency Amount and (y) the amount on deposit
in the Above-Cap Account (including any amounts deposited, or to be deposited,
on such Distribution Date pursuant to clause (ii) above), and shall upon receipt
of such amount pay such amount to the Trustee with respect to the Class G
Certificates in payment of such accrued interest as provided in Section 3.06(b).
In connection with a request for an Above-Cap Payment under the Above-Cap
Liquidity Facility pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Subordination Agent shall
certify to the Above-Cap Liquidity Provider that at least one of the following
statements is true as of such Distribution Date: (i) the Available Amount under
the Class G Primary Liquidity Facility (prior to giving effect to any Interest
Drawings to be made on such Distribution Date) is greater than zero; (ii) the
amount on deposit in the Class G Primary Cash Collateral Account (prior to
giving effect to any withdrawal to be made from such account on such
Distribution Date) is greater than zero; or (iii) the amount on deposit in the
Above-Cap Account (prior to giving effect to any withdrawal to be made from such
account on such Distribution Date) is greater than zero.

   (b) Application of Interest Drawings and Above-Cap Withdrawals.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) all
payments received by the Subordination Agent in respect of an Interest Drawing
under any Primary Liquidity Facility and all amounts withdrawn by the
Subordination Agent from any Primary Cash Collateral Account, and payable in
each case to the related Class of Certificateholders, shall be promptly
distributed to the Trustee for such Class and, upon

                                       51
<PAGE>
receipt thereof by the Trustee, applied to the payment of interest in respect of
which it was drawn, except that if (x) the Subordination Agent shall receive any
amount in respect of an Interest Drawing under the Class G Primary Liquidity
Facility or a withdrawal from the Class G Primary Cash Collateral Account to pay
Accrued Class G Interest after such Accrued Class G Interest has been fully paid
by a Policy Drawing under the Policy pursuant to Section 3.07(a), or (y) the
Subordination Agent shall receive any amount in respect of a Policy Drawing
under the Policy pursuant to Section 3.07(a), to pay Accrued Class G Interest
after such Accrued Class G Interest has been paid (in full or in part) to the
Class G Trustee by an Interest Drawing under the Class G Primary Liquidity
Facility or a withdrawal from the Class G Primary Cash Collateral Account, the
Subordination Agent, in either case, shall pay an amount equal to the amount of
such Interest Drawing or Policy Drawing directly to the Policy Provider as
reimbursement of such Policy Drawing rather than to the Class G
Certificateholders or the Class G Trustee and (ii) all payments received by the
Subordination Agent in respect of an Above-Cap Withdrawal from the Above-Cap
Account, and payable to the Class G Certificateholders shall be promptly
distributed to the Class G Trustee for the Class G Certificateholders and, upon
receipt thereof by the Class G Trustee, applied to the payment of interest in
respect of which it was withdrawn, except that if the Subordination Agent shall
receive any amount in respect of such Above-Cap Withdrawal to pay Accrued Class
G Interest after such Accrued Class G Interest has been fully paid by a Policy
Drawing under the Policy pursuant to Section 3.07(a), the Subordination Agent
shall pay an amount equal to the amount of such Above-Cap Withdrawal directly to
the Policy Provider as reimbursement of such Policy Drawing rather than to the
Class G Certificateholders or the Class G Trustee.

   (c) Downgrade Drawings. (i) Each Primary Liquidity Provider shall promptly,
but in any event within ten days of its receipt of notice thereof, deliver
notice to the Subordination Agent and American of any downgrading below the
applicable Threshold Rating of the short-term debt rating or issuer credit
rating of such Primary Liquidity Provider or of any Primary Liquidity Guarantor
issued by any Rating Agency (or, if such Primary Liquidity Provider or Primary
Liquidity Guarantor does not have a short-term debt rating or issuer credit
rating from either Rating Agency, the long-term debt rating or issuer credit
rating of such Primary Liquidity Provider or Primary Liquidity Guarantor from
such Rating Agency). If at any time (i) if there is no Primary Liquidity
Guarantor, the short-term issuer credit rating (with respect to S&P) or
short-term unsecured debt rating (with respect to Moody's) of any Primary
Liquidity Provider (or, if such Primary Liquidity Provider does not have such a
rating issued by a given Rating Agency, the long- term issuer credit rating
(with respect to S&P) or long-term unsecured debt rating (with respect to
Moody's) of such Primary Liquidity Provider issued by such Rating Agency) is
lower than the applicable Threshold Rating or (ii) if there is a Primary
Liquidity Guarantor, the short-term issuer credit rating (with respect to S&P)
or short-term

                                       52
<PAGE>
unsecured debt rating (with respect to Moody's) of the Primary Liquidity
Guarantor issued by either Rating Agency is lower than the applicable Threshold
Rating or a Primary Liquidity Guarantee Event for such Primary Liquidity
Facility has occurred and is continuing, within 10 days after the date of such
downgrading or Primary Liquidity Guarantee Event (but not later than the
expiration date of the Primary Liquidity Facility issued by the downgraded
Primary Liquidity Provider (or guaranteed by the downgraded Primary Liquidity
Guarantor or affected by a Primary Liquidity Guarantee Event) (the "Downgraded
Facility")), such Primary Liquidity Provider or American may arrange for a
Replacement Primary Liquidity Provider to issue and deliver a Replacement
Primary Liquidity Facility to the Subordination Agent, subject to the Ratings
Confirmation. If a Downgraded Facility has not been replaced in accordance with
the terms of this paragraph, the Subordination Agent shall, on such 10th day (or
if such 10th day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day)
(or, if earlier, on the expiration date of such Downgraded Facility), request a
drawing in accordance with and to the extent permitted by such Downgraded
Facility (such drawing, a "Downgrade Drawing") of all available and undrawn
amounts thereunder. Amounts drawn pursuant to a Downgrade Drawing shall be
maintained and invested as provided in Section 3.06(f). Subject to Section
3.06(e)(iii), the applicable Primary Liquidity Provider may also arrange for a
Replacement Primary Liquidity Provider to issue and deliver a Replacement
Primary Liquidity Facility at any time after such Downgrade Drawing so long as
such Downgrade Drawing has not been reimbursed in full to such Primary Liquidity
Provider.

   (ii) If an "Illegality", "Credit Event Upon Merger" or "Credit Downgrade"
(each as defined in the Class G Above-Cap Liquidity Facility and each such
event, a "Mandatory Termination Event") shall occur under the Above-Cap
Liquidity Facility, the Above-Cap Liquidity Provider under the Above-Cap
Liquidity Facility shall provide notice of such Mandatory Termination Event in
writing to American, the Subordination Agent and the Class G Trustee, and
American or the Above-Cap Liquidity Provider may, in each case at its own
expense, arrange for one or more Replacement Above-Cap Liquidity Providers to
issue and deliver a Replacement Above-Cap Liquidity Facility for the Above-Cap
Liquidity Facility to the Subordination Agent subject to Ratings Confirmation.
In addition, if a "Tax Event" or "Tax Event Upon Merger" (as defined in the
Above-Cap Liquidity Facility) shall occur under the Above-Cap Liquidity
Facility, the Above-Cap Liquidity Provider shall have the right (but not the
obligation) to transfer its rights and obligations under the Above-Cap Liquidity
Facility to another Office (as defined in the Above-Cap Liquidity Facility), to
deliver to the Subordination Agent a Replacement Above-Cap Liquidity Facility or
to pay the applicable Termination Amount on an Early Termination Date (as
defined in the Above-Cap Liquidity Facility) designated by the Above-Cap
Liquidity Provider, all in accordance with the terms of the Above-Cap Liquidity
Facility. In the event that the Above-Cap Liquidity Provider or American makes
arrangements for a Replacement Above-Cap Liquidity Facility or for the rights
and
                                       53
<PAGE>
obligations of the Above-Cap Liquidity Provider under the Above-Cap Liquidity
Facility to be transferred, in either case, in accordance with the terms of the
Above-Cap Liquidity Facility, (y) the Subordination Agent shall, if and to the
extent so requested by the Above- Cap Liquidity Provider or American, execute
and deliver any certificate or other instrument required to give effect to such
replacement or transfer and (z) each of the parties hereto shall enter into any
amendments to this Agreement necessary to give effect to such replacement or
transfer. If the Above-Cap Liquidity Facility subject to a Mandatory Termination
Event has not been replaced in accordance with its terms and the terms of this
paragraph, and as a result an Early Termination Date is deemed to have occurred
under the Above-Cap Liquidity Facility or if an Early Termination Date has been
designated under the Above-Cap Liquidity Facility after the occurrence of an
Event of Default (as defined in the Above-Cap Liquidity Facility) or "Tax Event"
or "Tax Event Upon Merger," such Above-Cap Liquidity Provider shall, on such
Early Termination Date, pay to the Subordination Agent, for the benefit of the
Class G Trustee on behalf of the holders of the Class G Certificates, the
applicable Termination Amount for credit to the Above-Cap Reserve Account
relating to the Above-Cap Liquidity Facility to be applied as provided in
Section 3.06(f) plus the amount of all other unpaid sums due and payable by the
Above-Cap Liquidity Provider thereunder on or prior to such date, and upon such
payment, the Above-Cap Liquidity Facility shall be terminated in accordance with
its terms. Nothing contained herein shall limit the rights of the Above-Cap
Liquidity Provider to transfer its rights and obligations under the Above-Cap
Liquidity Facility or otherwise arrange for a Replacement Above-Cap Liquidity
Facility, subject to and in accordance with the provisions of the Above-Cap
Liquidity Facility.

   (d) Non-Extension Drawings. If any Primary Liquidity Facility with respect to
any Class of Certificates is scheduled to expire on a date (the "Stated
Expiration Date") prior to the date that is 15 days after the Final Legal
Distribution Date for such Class of Certificates, then no earlier than the 60th
day and no later than the 40th day prior to the then applicable Stated
Expiration Date, the Subordination Agent shall request in writing that the
related Primary Liquidity Provider extend the Stated Expiration Date to the
earlier of (i) the date that is 15 days after the Final Legal Distribution Date
for such Class of Certificates and (ii) the date that is the day immediately
preceding the 364th day after the last day of the Consent Period (unless the
obligations of such Primary Liquidity Provider thereunder are earlier terminated
in accordance with such Primary Liquidity Facility). Whether or not the
applicable Primary Liquidity Provider has received such a request from the
Subordination Agent, the Primary Liquidity Provider shall by notice (the
"Consent Notice") to the Subordination Agent during the period commencing on the
date that is 60 days prior to the then effective Stated Expiration Date and
ending on the date that is 25 days prior to such Stated Expiration Date (the
"Consent Period") advise the Subordination Agent whether, in its sole
discretion, it agrees to so extend the Stated Expiration Date; provided,
however, that such extension shall not be effective with

                                       54
<PAGE>
respect to such Primary Liquidity Provider if, by notice (the "Withdrawal
Notice") to the Subordination Agent prior to the end of the Consent Period, the
Primary Liquidity Provider revokes its Consent Notice. If the Primary Liquidity
Provider advises the Subordination Agent in the Consent Notice that such Stated
Expiration Date shall not be so extended or gives a Withdrawal Notice to the
Subordination Agent prior to the end of the Consent Period, or fails to
irrevocably and unconditionally advise the Subordination Agent on or before the
end of the Consent Period that such Stated Expiration Date shall be so extended
(and, in each case, if the Primary Liquidity Provider shall not have been
replaced in accordance with Section 3.06(e)), the Subordination Agent shall, on
the date on which the Consent Period ends (or as soon as possible thereafter but
prior to the Stated Expiration Date), in accordance with and to the extent
permitted by the terms of the expiring Primary Liquidity Facility (a
"Non-Extended Facility"), request a drawing under such expiring Primary
Liquidity Facility (such drawing, a "Non-Extension Drawing") of all available
and undrawn amounts thereunder. Amounts drawn pursuant to a Non-Extension
Drawing shall be maintained and invested in accordance with Section 3.06(f). If
any amounts shall be drawn pursuant to a Non-Extension Drawing and, within 30
days thereafter, the Primary Liquidity Provider shall not have been replaced,
then at any time following the 30th day after such Non-Extension Drawing, the
Primary Liquidity Provider may, by written notice to the Subordination Agent,
agree to reinstate the Primary Liquidity Facility on the terms of the existing
Primary Liquidity Facility for a period ending on the 364th day after the end of
the Consent Period; provided, however, that in such event the Primary Liquidity
Provider shall reimburse the Subordination Agent for any costs actually incurred
by or on behalf of the Subordination Agent in drawing pursuant to the
Non-Extension Drawing and funding the Cash Collateral Account or otherwise in
connection with the Non-Extension Drawing.

   (e) Issuance of Replacement Primary Liquidity Facility. (i) Subject to
Section 3.06(e)(iii) and the agreements, if any, in the Fee Letter, at any time,
American may, at its option, with cause or without cause, arrange for a
Replacement Primary Liquidity Facility to replace any Primary Liquidity Facility
for any Class of Certificates (including any Replacement Primary Liquidity
Facility provided pursuant to Section 3.06(e)(ii)). If such Replacement Primary
Liquidity Facility is provided at any time after a Downgrade Drawing or a
Non-Extension Drawing has been made, all funds on deposit in the relevant
Primary Cash Collateral Account resulting from such Downgrade Drawing or Non-
Extension Drawing will be returned to the Primary Liquidity Provider being
replaced.

   (ii) If any Primary Liquidity Provider shall determine not to extend its
Primary Liquidity Facility in accordance with Section 3.06(d), then such Primary
Liquidity Provider may, at its option, arrange for a Replacement Primary
Liquidity Facility to replace such Primary Liquidity Facility during the period
no earlier than 40 days and no later than 25 days prior to the then effective
Stated Expiration Date of such Primary

                                       55
<PAGE>
Liquidity Facility. Subject to Section 3.06(e)(iii), the Primary Liquidity
Provider may also arrange for a Replacement Primary Liquidity Provider to issue
and deliver a Replacement Primary Liquidity Facility at any time after a
Non-Extension Drawing so long as such Non-Extension Drawing has not been
reimbursed in full to the Primary Liquidity Provider.

   (iii) No Replacement Primary Liquidity Facility arranged by American or a
Primary Liquidity Provider in accordance with Section 3.06(c) or clause (i) or
(ii) of this Section 3.06(e) shall become effective and no such Replacement
Primary Liquidity Facility shall be deemed a "Primary Liquidity Facility" under
the Operative Agreements, unless and until (A) each of the conditions referred
to in Section 3.06(e)(iv) below shall have been satisfied and (B) in the case of
a Replacement Primary Liquidity Facility arranged by a Primary Liquidity
Provider under Section 3.06(c) or Section 3.06(e)(ii), such Replacement Primary
Liquidity Provider and such Replacement Primary Liquidity Facility (including
the fees and compensation and interest payable thereunder to the Replacement
Primary Liquidity Provider) are acceptable to American.

   (iv) In connection with the issuance of each Replacement Primary Liquidity
Facility, the Subordination Agent shall (x) prior to the issuance of such
Replacement Primary Liquidity Facility, obtain written confirmation from each
Rating Agency that such Replacement Primary Liquidity Facility will not cause a
reduction of any rating then in effect for any Class of Certificates by such
Rating Agency (without regard to any downgrading of any rating of any Primary
Liquidity Provider being replaced pursuant to Section 3.06(c) and without regard
to the Policy) and, in the case of the Class G Primary Liquidity Facility, the
written consent of the Policy Provider (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed), (y) pay all Liquidity Obligations then owing to the
replaced Primary Liquidity Provider (which payment shall be made first from
available funds in the applicable Primary Cash Collateral Account as described
in Section 3.06(f)(vii), and thereafter from any other available source,
including, without limitation, a drawing under the Replacement Primary Liquidity
Facility) and (z) cause the issuer of the Replacement Primary Liquidity Facility
to deliver the Replacement Primary Liquidity Facility to the Subordination
Agent, together with a legal opinion addressed to the Subordination Agent, the
Trustees, the Policy Provider and American opining that such Replacement Primary
Liquidity Facility is an enforceable obligation of such Replacement Primary
Liquidity Provider.

   (v) Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 3.06(e)(iii)
and 3.06(e)(iv), (w) the replaced Primary Liquidity Facility shall terminate,
(x) the Subordination Agent shall, if and to the extent so requested by American
or the Primary Liquidity Provider being replaced, execute and deliver any
certificate or other instrument required in order to terminate the replaced
Primary Liquidity Facility, shall surrender the

                                       56
<PAGE>
replaced Primary Liquidity Facility to the Primary Liquidity Provider being
replaced and shall execute and deliver the Replacement Primary Liquidity
Facility and any associated Fee Letter, (y) each of the parties hereto shall
enter into any amendments to this Agreement necessary to give effect to (1) the
replacement of the applicable Primary Liquidity Provider with the applicable
Replacement Primary Liquidity Provider and (2) the replacement of the applicable
Primary Liquidity Facility with the applicable Replacement Primary Liquidity
Facility and (z) the applicable Replacement Primary Liquidity Provider shall be
deemed to be a Primary Liquidity Provider with the rights and obligations of a
Primary Liquidity Provider hereunder and under the other Operative Agreements
and such Replacement Primary Liquidity Facility shall be deemed to be a Primary
Liquidity Facility hereunder and under the other Operative Agreements.

   (f) Cash Collateral Accounts; Above-Cap Account; Withdrawals; Investments. If
the Subordination Agent shall draw all available amounts under any Primary
Liquidity Facility pursuant to Section 3.06(c), 3.06(d) or 3.06(i), or in the
event amounts are to be deposited in the Primary Cash Collateral Account
pursuant to subclause (A) or (B) of clause "third" of Section 2.04(b), subclause
(A) or (B) of clause "third" of Section 3.02 or subclause (A) or (B) of clause
"fourth" of Section 3.03, amounts so drawn or to be deposited, as the case may
be, shall be deposited by the Subordination Agent in the related or applicable
Primary Cash Collateral Account. If the Above-Cap Liquidity Provider shall at
any time make a Termination Amount payment under its Above-Cap Liquidity
Facility, such Termination Amount payment shall be deposited by the
Subordination Agent in the Above-Cap Reserve Account to be applied as specified
below in this Section 3.06(f). All amounts on deposit in each Cash Collateral
Account shall be invested and reinvested in Eligible Investments in accordance
with Section 2.02(b). On each Interest Payment Date (or, in the case of any
Special Distribution Date occurring prior to the occurrence of a Triggering
Event, on such Special Distribution Date), Investment Earnings on amounts on
deposit in each Primary Cash Collateral Account (or in the case of any Special
Distribution Date occurring prior to the occurrence of a Triggering Event, an
amount of such Investment Earnings on amounts of deposits in each Primary Cash
Collateral Account equal to the product of such Investment Earnings multiplied
by a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate outstanding principal
amount of Equipment Notes being redeemed, purchased or prepaid on such Special
Distribution Date and the denominator of which is the aggregate outstanding
principal amount of all Equipment Notes) shall be deposited in the Collection
Account (or, in the case of any Special Distribution Date occurring prior to the
occurrence of a Triggering Event, the Special Payments Account) and applied on
such Interest Payment Date (or Special Distribution Date, as the case may be) in
accordance with Section 2.04(b), 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04(b) (as applicable).
Investment Earnings on amounts on deposit in the Above-Cap Reserve Account
shall be credited to such account and applied in the same manner as the
Termination Amount payment credited thereto. Investment Earnings on amounts on

                                       57
<PAGE>
deposit in the Above-Cap Account shall be credited to such account and applied
in the same manner as Above-Cap Payments credited thereto. The Subordination
Agent shall deliver a written statement to American and each Liquidity Provider
one day prior to each Interest Payment Date and Special Distribution Date
setting forth the amount of Investment Earnings held in the Cash Collateral
Accounts as of such date. The Subordination Agent shall also deliver a written
statement to American and each Liquidity Provider one day after each
Distribution Date on which amounts have been deposited in or withdrawn from the
Above-Cap Account and/or withdrawn from the Above-Cap Reserve Account setting
forth the amount of such deposit and/or withdrawal. In addition, from and after
the date funds are so deposited, the Subordination Agent shall make withdrawals
from such accounts as follows:

   (i) on each Distribution Date, the Subordination Agent shall, to the extent
it shall not have received funds to pay accrued and unpaid interest due and
owing on the Class G Certificates (at the Stated Interest Rate for the Class G
Certificates) after giving effect to the subordination provisions of this
Agreement and any Election Interest Payment made by the Policy Provider, (A)
withdraw from the Class G Primary Cash Collateral Account, and pay to the Class
G Trustee, an amount equal to the lesser of (x) an amount necessary to pay
accrued and unpaid interest (at the Stated Interest Rate for the Class G
Certificates) on such Class G Certificates and (y) the amount on deposit in the
Class G Primary Cash Collateral Account (so long as the aggregate amount of
unreplenished withdrawals, including such withdrawal, does not exceed the
Required Amount for such Distribution Date) and (B) if an Above-Cap Payment
would have been required to be made on such Distribution Date pursuant to the
terms of the Class G Above-Cap Liquidity Facility were the Above-Cap Liquidity
Facility still in effect, withdraw from the Class G Above-Cap Reserve Account,
and deposit into the Class G Above-Cap Account, an amount (if any) equal to the
lesser of (x) an amount equal to such Above-Cap Payment and (y) the amount on
deposit in the Class G Above-Cap Reserve Account;

   (ii)  [Reserved]

   (iii) on each Distribution Date, the Subordination Agent shall, to the extent
it shall not have received funds to pay accrued and unpaid interest due and
owing on the Class C Certificates (at the Stated Interest Rate for the Class C
Certificates) after giving effect to the subordination provisions of this
Agreement, withdraw from the Class C Primary Cash Collateral Account, and pay to
the Class C Trustee, an amount (if any) equal to the lesser of (x) an amount
necessary to pay accrued and unpaid interest (at the Stated Interest Rate for
the Class C Certificates) on such Class C Certificates and (y) the amount on
deposit in the Class C Primary Cash Collateral Account;

                                       58
<PAGE>
   (iv) on each date on which the Pool Balance of the Class G Trust shall have
been reduced by payments made to the Class G Certificateholders pursuant to
Section 2.04(b), 3.02 or 3.03, the Subordination Agent shall withdraw from the
Class G Primary Cash Collateral Account such amount as is necessary so that,
after giving effect to the reduction of such Pool Balance on such date
(including any such reduction resulting from a prior withdrawal of amounts on
deposit in the Class G Primary Cash Collateral Account on such date) and any
transfer of Investment Earnings from such Class G Primary Cash Collateral
Account to the Collection Account or the Special Payments Account on such date,
an amount equal to the sum of the Required Amount (with respect to the Class G
Primary Liquidity Facility) plus the remaining Investment Earnings on deposit in
such Class G Primary Cash Collateral Account (if any) will be on deposit in the
Class G Primary Cash Collateral Account and shall, first, pay such withdrawn
amount to the Class G Primary Liquidity Provider until the Liquidity Obligations
(with respect to the Class G Certificates) owing to the Class G Primary
Liquidity Provider shall have been paid in full and, second, deposit any
remaining amount in the Collection Account;

   (v)   [Reserved]

   (vi) on each date on which the Pool Balance of the Class C Trust shall have
been reduced by payments made to the Class C Certificateholders pursuant to
Section 2.04(b), 3.02 or 3.03, the Subordination Agent shall withdraw from the
Class C Primary Cash Collateral Account such amount as is necessary so that,
after giving effect to the reduction of such Pool Balance on such date
(including any such reduction resulting from a prior withdrawal of amounts on
deposit in the Class C Primary Cash Collateral Account on such date) and any
transfer of Investment Earnings from such Class C Primary Cash Collateral
Account to the Collection Account or the Special Payments Account on such date,
an amount equal to the sum of the Required Amount (with respect to the Class C
Primary Liquidity Facility) plus the remaining Investment Earnings on deposit in
such Class C Primary Cash Collateral Account (if any) will be on deposit in the
Class C Primary Cash Collateral Account and shall, first, pay such withdrawn
amount to the relevant Class C Primary Liquidity Provider until the Liquidity
Obligations (with respect to the Class C Certificates) owing to such Class C
Primary Liquidity Provider shall have been paid in full and, second, deposit any
remaining amount in the Collection Account;

   (vii) if a Replacement Primary Liquidity Facility for any Class of
Certificates shall be delivered to the Subordination Agent following the date on
which funds have been deposited into the Primary Cash Collateral Account for
such Class of Certificates, the Subordination Agent shall withdraw all amounts
remaining on deposit in such Primary Cash Collateral Account and shall pay such
amounts to the replaced Primary Liquidity Provider until all Liquidity
Obligations owed to such Person shall have been paid in full, and deposit any
remaining amount in the Collection Account; and

                                       59
<PAGE>
   (viii)(x) following the payment of Final Distributions with respect to any
Class of Certificates, on the date on which the Subordination Agent shall have
been notified by the Primary Liquidity Provider for such Class of Certificates
that the Liquidity Obligations owed to such Primary Liquidity Provider have been
paid in full, the Subordination Agent shall withdraw all amounts on deposit in
the Primary Cash Collateral Account related to the Primary Liquidity Facility in
respect of such Class of Certificates and deposit such amount in the Collection
Account and (y) in the case of the Class G Certificates, on the first Business
Day occurring immediately after the earlier of (1) the date of the payment of
Final Distributions with respect to the Class G Certificates and (2) the Final
Legal Distribution Date for the Class G Certificates (after giving effect to all
distributions to be made on such date), the Subordination Agent shall pay to the
Above-Cap Liquidity Provider an amount equal to the sum of the amounts (if any)
on deposit in (A) the Above- Cap Account and (B) the Above-Cap Reserve Account.

   (g) Reinstatement. With respect to any Interest Drawing under the Primary
Liquidity Facility for any Trust, upon the reimbursement of the applicable
Primary Liquidity Provider for all or any part of the amount of such Interest
Drawing, together with any accrued interest thereon, the Available Amount of
such Primary Liquidity Facility shall be reinstated by an amount equal to the
amount of such Interest Drawing so reimbursed to the applicable Liquidity
Provider but not to exceed the Stated Amount for such Primary Liquidity
Facility; provided, however, that the Available Amount of such Primary Liquidity
Facility shall not be so reinstated in part or in full at any time if (x) both a
Performing Note Deficiency exists and a Liquidity Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing with respect to the relevant Primary Liquidity
Facility or (y) a Final Drawing shall have occurred with respect to such Primary
Liquidity Facility; provided, further, that any payment by the Policy Provider
to any Primary Liquidity Provider of any amounts pursuant to the first proviso
to Section 2.06(c) shall not reinstate the related Primary Liquidity Facility,
but such Primary Liquidity Facility (so long as such Primary Liquidity Facility
is in effect) shall be reinstated, pro tanto, to the extent the Policy Provider
receives any reimbursement in respect of such payment under clause "third" of
Section 2.04(b), clause "third" of Section 3.02 or clause "fourth" of Section
3.03 unless (x) both a Performing Note Deficiency exists and a Liquidity Event
of Default shall have occurred with respect to such Primary Liquidity Facility
or (y) a Final Drawing shall have occurred with respect to such Primary
Liquidity Facility. In the event that, with respect to any particular Primary
Liquidity Facility, (i) funds are withdrawn from the related Primary Cash
Collateral Account pursuant to clause (i), (ii), or (iii) of Section 3.06(f) or
(ii) such Primary Liquidity Facility shall become a Downgraded Facility or a
Non-Extended Facility at a time when unreimbursed Interest Drawings under such
Primary Liquidity Facility have reduced the Available Amount thereunder to zero,
then funds received by the Subordination Agent at any time, other than (x) any
time when both a Performing Note Deficiency exists and a Liquidity Event of
Default shall have occurred
                                       60
<PAGE>
and be continuing with respect to such Primary Liquidity Facility or (y) any
time after a Final Drawing shall have occurred with respect to such Primary
Liquidity Facility, shall be deposited in such Primary Cash Collateral Account
as and to the extent provided in clause "third" of Section 2.04(b), clause
"third" of Section 3.02 or clause "fourth" of Section 3.03, as applicable, and
applied in accordance with Section 3.06(f).

   (h) Reimbursement. The amount of each drawing under the Primary Liquidity
Facilities shall be due and payable, together with interest thereon, on the
dates and at the rates, respectively, provided in the Primary Liquidity
Facilities. The Subordination Agent shall have no obligation to reimburse the
Above-Cap Liquidity Provider for any Above- Cap Payments and the Above-Cap
Liquidity Provider shall have no interest in any monies credited to any Trust
Account except as provided in Section 3.06(f)(viii) hereof.

   (i) Final Drawing. Upon receipt from a Primary Liquidity Provider of a
Termination Notice with respect to any Primary Liquidity Facility, the
Subordination Agent shall, not later than the date specified in such Termination
Notice, in accordance with and to the extent permitted by the terms of such
Primary Liquidity Facility, request a drawing under such Primary Liquidity
Facility of all available and undrawn amounts thereunder (a "Final Drawing").
Amounts drawn pursuant to a Final Drawing shall be maintained and invested in
accordance with Section 3.06(f).

   (j) Reduction of Stated Amount. Promptly following each date on which the
Required Amount of the Primary Liquidity Facility for a Class of Certificates is
reduced as a result of a reduction in the Pool Balance with respect to such
Certificates (including, in the case of the Class G Certificates, by reason of a
Policy Provider Election with respect to one or more Series G Equipment Notes),
the Subordination Agent shall, if any such Primary Liquidity Facility provides
for reductions of the Stated Amount of such Primary Liquidity Facility and if
such reductions are not automatic, request such Primary Liquidity Provider for
such Class of Certificates to reduce such Stated Amount to an amount equal to
the Required Amount with respect to such Primary Liquidity Facility (as
calculated by the Subordination Agent after giving effect to such payment). Each
such request shall be made in accordance with the provisions of the applicable
Primary Liquidity Facility.

   (k) Relation to Subordination Provisions. Interest Drawings under the Primary
Liquidity Facilities and withdrawals from the Primary Cash Collateral Accounts
relating to such Primary Liquidity Facilities and the Above-Cap Account, in each
case, in respect of interest on the Certificates of any Class, will be
distributed to the Trustee for such Class of Certificates, notwithstanding
Sections 2.04(b), 3.02, 3.03 and 3.06(f).

   (l) Assignment of Primary Liquidity Facility. The Subordination Agent agrees
not to consent to the assignment by any Primary Liquidity Provider of any of its
rights or

                                       61
<PAGE>
obligations under any Primary Liquidity Facility or any interest therein unless
(i) American and the Policy Provider shall have consented to such assignment and
(ii) each Rating Agency shall have provided a Ratings Confirmation in respect of
such assignment; provided that the consent right of the Policy Provider shall be
in respect of an assignment of the Class G Primary Liquidity Facility only, and
such consent of the Policy Provider shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed.

   Section 3.07 The Policy.

      (a) Interest Drawings. If on any Regular Distribution Date (other than the
Final Legal Distribution Date) after giving effect to the application of
available funds in accordance with the priorities specified in Section 2.04 and
Article III, and taking into account any Drawing paid under the Class G Primary
Liquidity Facility in respect of accrued interest and any withdrawal of funds
from the Class G Primary Cash Collateral Account and the Class G Above-Cap
Account in respect of such interest, the Subordination Agent does not then have
sufficient funds available for the payment of Accrued Class G Interest, then,
prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Regular Distribution Date, the
Subordination Agent (i) shall deliver a Notice of Nonpayment, as provided in the
Policy to the Policy Provider or its fiscal agent, requesting a Policy Drawing
under the Policy (for payment into the Policy Account) in an amount sufficient
to enable the Subordination Agent to pay such Accrued Class G Interest and (ii)
shall pay such amount, when received, from the Policy Account to the Class G
Trustee in payment of such Accrued Class G Interest on such Distribution Date.

      (b) Proceeds Deficiency Drawing. If on any Special Distribution Date
(other than a Special Distribution Date established pursuant to the last
sentence of the second paragraph of Section 3.07(c)) established by the
Subordination Agent by reason of its receipt of a Special Payment (a
"Disposition Payment") constituting the proceeds of any Series G Equipment Note
or related Collateral, as the case may be, there exists a shortfall in the
amounts available to the Subordination Agent (after giving effect to the
application of available funds, including, without limitation, the amount of
such Disposition Payment) in accordance with the priorities specified in Section
2.04 and Article III, and (if the receipt of the Special Payment from the
disposition of such Series G Equipment Note or related Collateral occurs prior
to a Policy Provider Election with respect to such Series G Equipment Note)
taking into account any Drawing paid under the Class G Primary Liquidity
Facility in respect of accrued interest and any withdrawal of funds in the Class
G Primary Cash Collateral Account and the Class G Above-Cap Account in respect
of such interest) required to reduce the outstanding Pool Balance of the Class G
Certificates by an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of the
applicable Series G Equipment Note (determined immediately prior to the receipt
of such Disposition Payment and less the amount of any Policy Drawing previously
paid by the

                                       62
<PAGE>
Policy Provider in respect of principal of such Series G Equipment Note) plus
accrued and unpaid interest on the amount of such reduction accrued at the
Stated Interest Rate for the Class G Certificates for the period from the
immediately preceding Regular Distribution Date to such Special Distribution
Date, then, prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Special Distribution
Date, the Subordination Agent (x) shall deliver a Notice of Nonpayment, as
provided in the Policy, to the Policy Provider or its fiscal agent, requesting a
Policy Drawing under the Policy (for payment into the Policy Account) in an
amount equal to the amount of such shortfall and (y) shall pay such amount, when
received, from the Policy Account to the Class G Trustee in payment of such
reduction in the outstanding Pool Balance of the Class G Certificates plus such
accrued and unpaid interest on such Special Distribution Date. The Subordination
Agent shall promptly, but not less than 20 days prior to the Special
Distribution Date established pursuant to this Section 3.07(b), send to
American, the Trustees, the Primary Liquidity Provider for the Class G Primary
Liquidity Facility and the Policy Provider, a Written Notice of such Special
Distribution Date.

      (c) No Proceeds Drawing. On the first Business Day (which shall be a
Special Distribution Date) that is 21 months after the last date on which full
payment was made on any Series G Equipment Note (a "Defaulted Series G Equipment
Note") as to which there has subsequently been a failure to pay principal or
that has subsequently been Accelerated, if the Subordination Agent has not
theretofore made a drawing under the Policy pursuant to Section 3.07(b), the
Subordination Agent shall deliver a Notice of Nonpayment, as provided in the
Policy, to the Policy Provider or its fiscal agent, requesting a Policy Drawing
under the Policy (for payment into the Policy Account) in an amount equal to the
then outstanding principal amount of such Defaulted Series G Equipment Note plus
accrued and unpaid interest thereon from the immediately preceding Regular
Distribution Date to such Special Distribution Date. The Subordination Agent
shall promptly, but not less than 25 days prior to such Business Day, send to
American, the Trustees, the Primary Liquidity Provider for the Class G Primary
Liquidity Facility and the Policy Provider a Written Notice establishing such
Business Day as the date for the distribution of the proceeds of such Policy
Drawing, which date shall constitute a Special Distribution Date. No later than
1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the specified Special Distribution Date the
Subordination Agent shall make the specified Policy Drawing and upon its receipt
of the proceeds thereof pay the amount thereof from the Policy Account to the
Class G Trustee in reduction of the outstanding Pool Balance of the Class G
Certificates together with such accrued and unpaid interest on the amount of
such reduction. For the avoidance of doubt, after the payment by the Policy
Provider in full of such amount under this Section 3.07(c), the Subordination
Agent shall have no right to make any further Policy Drawings under Section
3.07(c) in respect of such Defaulted Series G Equipment Note except for a
drawing under Section 3.07(e).

                                       63
<PAGE>
      Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Policy Provider has the right, so long
as no Policy Provider Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon notice
to the Subordination Agent given at least five days prior to the Special
Distribution Date established by the Subordination Agent pursuant to the first
paragraph of this Section 3.07(c), to elect instead (the "Policy Provider
Election") to pay (i) on such Special Distribution Date an amount equal to the
scheduled principal and interest that came due on such Defaulted Series G
Equipment Note (without regard to the Acceleration thereof) but was not paid
during such 21-month period (after giving effect to the application of funds
received from the Class G Primary Liquidity Facility and withdrawals of funds
from the Class G Primary Cash Collateral Account and the Class G Above-Cap
Account, in each case in respect of such interest) and (ii) thereafter, on each
Regular Distribution Date, an amount equal to the scheduled principal and
interest that becomes due on such Defaulted Series G Equipment Note on the
related payment date (without regard to any Acceleration thereof or to any funds
available under any Liquidity Facility or any Cash Collateral Account) until the
establishment of an Election Distribution Date or a Special Distribution Date
established as provided in the immediately following sentence (each such
interest payment, an "Election Interest Payment"). Following a Policy Provider
Election with respect to a Defaulted Series G Equipment Note, on any Business
Day (which shall be a Special Distribution Date) elected by the Policy Provider
upon 20 days' Written Notice to the Subordination Agent and the Class G Trustee,
the Policy Provider may, notwithstanding the Policy Provider Election, request
the Subordination Agent to, and the Subordination Agent shall, make a Policy
Drawing for an amount equal to the then outstanding principal balance of such
Defaulted Series G Equipment Note (less any Policy Drawings previously paid by
the Policy Provider in respect of principal of such Defaulted Series G Equipment
Note) and accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the Stated Interest Rate for
the Class G Certificates from the previous Regular Distribution Date to such
Special Distribution Date.

      Further, following a Policy Provider Election with respect to a Defaulted
Series G Equipment Note, upon the occurrence and continuance of a Policy
Provider Default, the Subordination Agent shall on any Business Day (an
"Election Distribution Date", which shall be a Special Distribution Date)
elected by the Subordination Agent upon 20 days' Written Notice to the Class G
Trustee and the Policy Provider, make a Policy Drawing for an amount equal to
the then outstanding principal balance of such Defaulted Series G Equipment Note
(less any Policy Drawings previously paid by the Policy Provider in respect of
principal of such Equipment Note) and accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the
Stated Interest Rate for the Class G Certificates from the immediately preceding
Regular Distribution Date to such Election Distribution Date. The Subordination
Agent shall make each such Policy Drawing referred to in this subparagraph (c)
under the Policy (for payment into the Policy Account) no later than 1:00 p.m.
(New York City time) on the relevant Special Distribution Date and upon its
receipt of the proceeds thereof pay the

                                       64
<PAGE>
amount thereof from the Policy Account to the Class G Trustee in reduction of
the outstanding Pool Balance of the Class G Certificates together with such
accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

      In addition, regardless of whether or not the Policy Provider makes a
Policy Provider Election, the Policy Provider shall, at the end of the first
occurring 21-month period described in Section 3.07(c), endorse the Policy (if
not already endorsed to so provide) to provide for the payment to the Primary
Liquidity Provider with respect to the Class G Certificates of interest accruing
on the outstanding Drawings in respect of the Class G Primary Liquidity Facility
from and after the end of such 21-month period as and when such interest becomes
due in accordance with the Class G Primary Liquidity Facility. The Policy
Provider hereby agrees not to otherwise amend or modify the Policy without the
consent of the Primary Liquidity Provider if such amendment or modification
would adversely affect the rights of the Primary Liquidity Provider.

      (d) Final Policy Drawing. If on the Final Legal Distribution Date of the
Class G Certificates after giving effect to the application of available funds
in accordance with the priorities specified in Section 2.04 and Article III, and
taking into account any Drawing paid under the Class G Primary Liquidity
Facility in respect of interest included in the Final Distribution and any
withdrawal of funds in the Class G Primary Cash Collateral Account and the Class
G Above-Cap Account in respect of interest included in the Final Distribution,
the Subordination Agent does not then have sufficient funds available on such
date for the payment in full of the Final Distribution (calculated as of such
date but excluding any accrued and unpaid Break Amount or Prepayment Premium) on
the Class G Certificates then, prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such
date, the Subordination Agent shall: (i) deliver a Notice of Nonpayment, as
provided in the Policy, to the Policy Provider or its fiscal agent, requesting a
Policy Drawing under the Policy (for payment into the Policy Account) in an
amount equal to the minimum amount sufficient to enable the Subordination Agent
to pay the Final Distribution (calculated as of such date but excluding any
accrued and unpaid Break Amount or Prepayment Premium) on the Class G
Certificates, and (ii) shall pay such amount, when received, from the Policy
Account to the Class G Trustee in payment of such amount on such date.

      (e) Avoidance Drawings. If at any time the Subordination Agent shall have
actual knowledge of the issuance of any Final Order, the Subordination Agent
shall promptly give notice thereof to American, each Trustee, the Liquidity
Providers and the Policy Provider. The Subordination Agent shall thereupon
calculate the relevant Avoided Payments resulting therefrom and shall promptly:
(a) send to the Class G Trustee a Written Notice of such amount and (b) deliver
to the Policy Provider, or its fiscal agent, a Notice of Avoided Payment,
together with a copy of the documentation required by the Policy with respect
thereto, requesting a Policy Drawing (for payment to the receiver,

                                       65
<PAGE>
conservator, debtor-in-possession or trustee in bankruptcy and/or the
Subordination Agent for deposit into the Policy Account) in an amount equal to
the amount of relevant Avoided Payment. Such Written Notice shall also set the
date for the distribution of the proceeds of such Policy Drawing, which date
shall constitute a Special Distribution Date and shall be the earlier of the
third Business Day that immediately precedes the expiration of the Policy and
the Business Day that immediately follows the 25th day after the date of such
Written Notice. No later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the specified
Special Distribution Date, the Subordination Agent shall make the specified
Policy Drawing and, upon its receipt of the proceeds thereof, pay the amount
thereof from the Policy Account to the Class G Trustee in reinstatement of the
Avoided Payment.

      (f) Application of Policy Drawings. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections
2.04, 3.02 and 3.03), all payments received by the Subordination Agent in
respect of a Policy Drawing shall be promptly paid from the Policy Account to
the Class G Trustee for distribution to the related Class G Certificateholders.
Each Policy Drawing shall be applied to the purpose for which it was made,
including, without limitation, the application of that portion of a Policy
Drawing relating (i) to accrued interest with respect to a Series G Equipment
Note to the payment of interest on the Class G Certificates and (ii) to
principal of a Series G Equipment Notes to the reduction of the Pool Balance of
the Class G Certificates.

      (g) Reduction of Outstanding Pool Balance. Promptly following each date on
which the Pool Balance of the Class G Certificates is reduced as a result of a
payment under this Agreement, the Subordination Agent shall inform the Policy
Provider of such reduction. Anything contained herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, (i) no Policy Drawing for payment in respect of the Class G
Certificates under clause (a) of this Section 3.07 shall be in excess of Accrued
Class G Interest and (ii) no Policy Drawing under clauses (b)-(d) of this
Section 3.07 shall be for an amount in excess of the outstanding Pool Balance of
the Class G Certificates plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the Stated
Interest Rate for the Class G Certificates. Nothing contained in this
Intercreditor Agreement shall be deemed to alter or amend the liabilities,
obligations, requirements or procedures of the Policy Provider under the Policy
and the Policy Provider shall not be obligated to make payment except at the
times and in the amounts and under the circumstances expressly set forth in the
Policy.

      (h) Resubmission of Notice for Payment. If the Policy Provider at any time
informs the Subordination Agent in accordance with the Policy that a Notice of
Nonpayment or Notice of Avoided Payment submitted by the Subordination Agent
does not satisfy the requirements of the Policy, the Subordination Agent shall,
as promptly as possible after being so informed, submit to the Policy Provider
an amended and revised Notice of Nonpayment or Notice of Avoided Payment, as the
case may be, and shall pay

                                       66
<PAGE>
to the Class G Trustee out of the Policy Account the amount received pursuant to
such amended or revised Notice of Nonpayment or Notice of Avoided Payment, as
the case may be, when received.

      Section 3.08 Subrogation. Subject to Section 3.06(b), the Policy Provider
will be subrogated to all of the rights of the holders of the Class G
Certificates to payment on the Class G Certificates to the extent of the
payments made under the Policy as set forth herein, the exercise of such
subrogation rights to be subject to the other provisions of this Agreement.

                               ARTICLE IV
                          EXERCISE OF REMEDIES

      Section 4.01 Directions from the Controlling Party. (a) (i) Following the
occurrence and during the continuation of an Indenture Event of Default under
any Indenture, the Controlling Party shall direct the Subordination Agent, which
in turn shall direct the Loan Trustee under such Indenture, in the exercise of
remedies available to the holders of the Equipment Notes issued pursuant to such
Indenture, including, without limitation, the ability to vote all such Equipment
Notes in favor of Accelerating such Equipment Notes in accordance with the
provisions of such Indenture. If the Equipment Notes issued pursuant to any
Indenture have been Accelerated following an Indenture Event of Default with
respect thereto, the Controlling Party may direct the Subordination Agent to
sell, assign, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of and deliver all (but not
less than all) of such Equipment Notes to any Person at public or private sale,
at any location at the option of the Controlling Party, all upon such terms and
conditions as it may reasonably deem advisable and in accordance with applicable
law.

      (ii) So long as any Certificates remain Outstanding, during the period
ending on the date which is nine months after the earlier of (x) the
Acceleration of the Equipment Notes issued pursuant to any Indenture or (y) the
occurrence of an American Bankruptcy Event, without the consent of each Trustee
(other than the Trustee of a Trust all of the Certificates of which are held or
beneficially owned by American and/or its affiliates), no Aircraft subject to
the Lien of such Indenture or such Equipment Notes may be sold if the net
proceeds from such sale would be less than the Minimum Sale Price for such
Aircraft or such Equipment Notes.

      (iii) At the request of the Controlling Party, the Subordination Agent may
from time to time during the continuance of an Indenture Event of Default (and
before the occurrence of a Triggering Event) commission an appraisal with
respect to the Aircraft subject to such Indenture.

                                       67
<PAGE>
      (iv) After a Triggering Event occurs and any Equipment Note becomes a
Non-Performing Equipment Note, the Subordination Agent shall obtain Appraisals
with respect to all of the Aircraft (the "LTV Appraisals") as soon as
practicable and additional LTV Appraisals on or prior to each anniversary of the
date of such initial LTV Appraisals; provided that, if the Controlling Party
reasonably objects to the appraised value of the Aircraft shown in such LTV
Appraisals, the Controlling Party shall have the right to obtain or cause to be
obtained substitute LTV Appraisals (including any LTV Appraisals based upon
physical inspection of the Aircraft).

      (b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Subordination Agent, at
the direction of the Controlling Party, shall take such actions as it may
reasonably deem most effectual to complete the sale or other disposition of such
Equipment Notes. In addition, in lieu of any sale, assignment, contract to sell
or other disposition, if the Subordination Agent is so directed by the
Controlling Party, the Subordination Agent may maintain possession of such
Equipment Notes and continue to apply monies received in respect of such
Equipment Notes in accordance with Section 2.04(b) and Article III. In addition,
in lieu of such sale, assignment, contract to sell or other disposition, or in
lieu of such maintenance of possession, the Controlling Party may direct the
Subordination Agent to, subject to the terms and conditions of the related
Indenture, instruct the Loan Trustee under such Indenture to foreclose on the
Lien on the related Aircraft or take any other remedial action permitted by such
Indenture or applicable law.

   Section 4.02 Remedies Cumulative Each and every right, power and remedy given
to the Trustees, the Liquidity Providers, the Policy Provider, the Controlling
Party or the Subordination Agent specifically or otherwise in this Agreement
shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other right, power and
remedy herein specifically given or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity
or by statute, and each and every right, power and remedy whether specifically
herein given or otherwise existing may, subject always to the terms and
conditions hereof, be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order
as may be deemed expedient by any Trustee, any Liquidity Provider, the Policy
Provider, the Controlling Party or the Subordination Agent, as appropriate, and
the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of any right, 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 any
Trustee, any Liquidity Provider, the Policy Provider, the Controlling Party or
the Subordination Agent in the exercise of any right, remedy or power or in the
pursuit of any remedy shall impair any such right, power or remedy or be
construed to be a waiver of any default or to be an acquiescence therein.

   Section 4.03 Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case any party to this
Agreement (including the Controlling Party in such capacity) shall have
instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right, power or remedy under this
Agreement by foreclosure, entry or

                                       68
<PAGE>
otherwise, and such Proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any
reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Person instituting such
Proceeding, then and in every such case each such party shall, subject to any
determination in such Proceeding, be restored to its former position and rights
hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of such party shall continue as
if no such Proceeding had been instituted.

   Section 4.04 Right of Certificateholders to Receive Payments Not to Be
Impaired. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and each Trust Agreement,
the right of any Certificateholder, any Primary Liquidity Provider or the Policy
Provider, respectively, to receive payments hereunder (including, without
limitation, pursuant to Section 2.04, 3.02 or 3.03) when due, or to institute
suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the applicable
Distribution Date, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such
Certificateholder, such Liquidity Provider or the Policy Provider, respectively.

                   DUTIES OF THE SUBORDINATION AGENT;
                      AGREEMENTS OF TRUSTEES, ETC.

   Section 5.01 Notice of Indenture Event of Default or Triggering Event. (a) If
the Subordination Agent shall have knowledge of an Indenture Event of Default or
a Triggering Event, the Subordination Agent shall promptly give notice thereof
to the Rating Agencies, American, the Liquidity Providers, the Policy Provider
and the Trustees by telegram, cable, facsimile or telephone (to be promptly
confirmed in writing), unless such Indenture Event of Default or Triggering
Event shall have been cured or waived. For all purposes of this Agreement, in
the absence of actual knowledge, the Subordination Agent shall not be deemed to
have knowledge of any Indenture Event of Default or Triggering Event unless
notified in writing by American, one or more Trustees, one or more Liquidity
Providers, the Policy Provider or one or more Certificateholders; and "actual
knowledge" (as used in the foregoing clause) of the Subordination Agent shall
mean actual knowledge of an officer in the Corporate Trust Office of the
Subordination Agent.

      (b) Other Notices. The Subordination Agent will furnish to each Liquidity
Provider, the Policy Provider and Trustee, promptly upon receipt thereof,
duplicates or copies of all reports, notices, requests, demands, certificates,
financial statements and other instruments furnished to the Subordination Agent
as registered holder of the Equipment Notes or otherwise in its capacity as
Subordination Agent to the extent the same shall not have been otherwise
directly distributed to such Liquidity Provider, the Policy Provider or Trustee,
as applicable, pursuant to any other Operative Agreement.

   Section 5.02 Indemnification. The Subordination Agent shall not be required
to take any action or refrain from taking any action under Article IV unless the
Subordination Agent 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 Subordination Agent shall not be
required to take any action under Article IV, nor shall any other provision of
this Agreement or any other Operative Agreement be deemed to impose a duty on
the Subordination Agent to take any action, if the Subordination Agent shall
have been advised by outside counsel that such action is contrary to the terms
hereof or is otherwise contrary to law.

   Section 5.03 No Duties Except as Specified in Intercreditor Agreement. The
Subordination Agent shall not have any duty or obligation to take or refrain
from taking any action under, or in connection with, this Agreement, except as
expressly provided by the terms of this Agreement; and no implied duties or
obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Subordination Agent.
The Subordination Agent agrees that it will, in its individual capacity and at
its own cost and expense (but without any right of indemnity in respect of any
such cost or expense) promptly take such action as may be necessary duly to
discharge all Liens on any of the Trust Accounts or any monies deposited therein
that are attributable to the Subordination Agent in its individual capacity and
that are unrelated to the transaction contemplated hereby and by the other
Operative Agreements.

   Section 5.04 Notice from the Liquidity Providers and Trustees. If any
Liquidity Provider, the Policy Provider or any Trustee has notice of an
Indenture Event of Default or a Triggering Event, such Person shall promptly
give notice thereof to all other Liquidity Providers and Trustees and to the
Subordination Agent; provided, however, that no such Person shall have any
liability hereunder as a result of its failure to deliver any such notice.

   Section 5.05 Agreements Relating to Above-Cap Liquidity Facility. Each of the
Subordination Agent and the Class G Trustee agrees at the request of the Class G
Above- Cap Liquidity Provider to use reasonable efforts (consistent with
applicable legal and regulatory restrictions) to take any action that would
avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any payment under Section 2(d) of
the ISDA Master Agreement forming part of the Class G Above-Cap Liquidity
Facility; provided that any such action would not, in the reasonable judgment of
such Person, be materially disadvantageous to it. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained herein, but without limiting, and subject to, the rights
of the Subordination Agent hereunder, the obligation of the Above- Cap Liquidity
Provider to make any Above-Cap Payment or pay any Termination Amount shall be
governed exclusively by the Above-Cap Liquidity Facility.

                        THE SUBORDINATION AGENT

   Section 6.01 Authorization; Acceptance of Trusts and Duties. Each of the
Class G Trustee and the Class C Trustee hereby designates and appoints the
Subordination Agent as the agent and trustee of such Trustee under the
applicable Liquidity Facility and authorizes the Subordination Agent to enter
into the applicable Liquidity Facility as agent and trustee for such Trustee.
Each of the Liquidity Providers and the Trustees hereby designates and appoints
the Subordination Agent as the Subordination Agent under this Agreement. 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 Agreement and
agrees to receive, handle and disburse all monies received by it in accordance
with the terms hereof. The Subordination Agent shall have no liability hereunder
except (a) for its own willful misconduct or negligence, (b) as provided in
Section 2.02 and the last sentence of Section 5.03, (c) for liabilities that may
result from the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of the
Subordination Agent made in its individual capacity in any Operative Agreement
and (d) as otherwise expressly provided herein or in the other Operative
Agreements.

   Section 6.02 Absence of Duties. The Subordination Agent shall have no duty to
see to any recording or filing of this Agreement or any other document, or to
see to the maintenance of any such recording or filing.

   Section 6.03 No Representations or Warranties as to Documents. The
Subordination Agent shall not be deemed to have made any representation or
warranty as to the validity, legality or enforceability of this Agreement or any
other Operative Agreement or as to the correctness of any statement contained
herein or therein (other than the representations and warranties of the
Subordination Agent made in its individual capacity under any Operative
Agreement), except that the Subordination Agent 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. The
Certificateholders, the Trustees, the Policy Provider and the Liquidity
Providers make no representation or warranty hereunder whatsoever.

   Section 6.04 No Segregation of Monies; No Interest. Any monies paid to or
retained by the Subordination Agent pursuant to any provision hereof and not
then required to be distributed to any Trustee, the Policy Provider or any
Liquidity Provider as provided in Articles II and III or deposited into one or
more Trust Accounts need not be segregated in any manner except to the extent
required by such Articles II and III and by law, and the Subordination Agent
shall not (except as otherwise provided in Section 2.02)

                                       71
<PAGE>
be liable for any interest thereon; provided, however, that any payments
received or applied hereunder by the Subordination Agent shall be accounted for
by the Subordination Agent 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 Subordination Agent
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 believed by it to be genuine and
believed by it to be signed by the proper party or parties. As to the Pool
Balance of any Trust as of any date, the Subordination Agent may for all
purposes hereof rely on a certificate signed by any Responsible Officer of the
applicable Trustee, and such certificate shall constitute full protection to the
Subordination Agent for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good
faith in reliance thereon. As to any fact or matter relating to the Liquidity
Providers, the Trustees or the Policy Provider, the manner of ascertainment of
which is not specifically described herein, the Subordination Agent may for all
purposes hereof rely on a certificate, signed by any Responsible Officer of the
applicable Liquidity Provider, Trustee, or the Policy Provider, as the case may
be, as to such fact or matter, and such certificate shall constitute full
protection to the Subordination Agent 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 Subordination Agent may (a) execute any of the trusts or
powers hereof and perform its powers and duties hereunder directly or through
agents or attorneys and (b) consult with counsel, accountants and other skilled
Persons to be selected and retained by it. The Subordination Agent 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 Subordination Agent shall have exercised reasonable
care and judgment in selecting such Persons).

   Section 6.06 Capacity in Which Acting. The Subordination Agent acts hereunder
solely as agent and trustee herein and not in its individual capacity, except as
otherwise expressly provided in the Operative Agreements.

   Section 6.07 Compensation. The Subordination Agent shall be entitled to such
compensation, including reasonable expenses and disbursements, for all services
rendered hereunder as American and the Subordination Agent may agree from time
to time in writing and shall have a priority claim to the extent set forth in
Article III on all monies collected hereunder for the payment of such
compensation, to the extent that such compensation shall not be paid by others.
The Subordination Agent agrees that it shall have no right against any Trustee
or Liquidity Provider or the Policy Provider for any fee

                                       72
<PAGE>
as compensation for its services as agent under this Agreement. The provisions
of this Section 6.07 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

   Section 6.08 May Become Certificateholder. The institution acting as
Subordination Agent hereunder may become a Certificateholder and have all rights
and benefits of a Certificateholder to the same extent as if it were not the
institution acting as the Subordination Agent.

   Section 6.09 Subordination Agent Required; Eligibility. There shall at all
times be a Subordination Agent hereunder that is a Citizen of the United States,
a bank, trust company or other financial institution organized and doing
business under the laws of the United States or any state thereof and eligible
to act as a trustee under Section 310(a) of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as
amended, and that has 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 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). If such bank,
trust company or other financial institution or such 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 6.09 the combined capital and
surplus of such bank, trust company or other financial institution or such
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 Subordination Agent shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.09, the Subordination Agent
shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section
7.01.

   Section 6.10 Money to Be Held in Trust. All Equipment Notes, monies and other
property deposited with or held by the Subordination Agent pursuant to this
Agreement shall be held in trust for the benefit of the parties entitled to such
Equipment Notes, monies and other property.

                              ARTICLE VII

                     SUCCESSOR SUBORDINATION AGENT

   Section 7.01 Replacement of Subordination Agent; Appointment of Successor.
(a) The Subordination Agent or any successor thereto must resign if at any time
it fails to comply with Section 6.09 and may resign at any time without cause by
giving 60 days' prior written notice to American, the Trustees, the Policy
Provider and the Liquidity Providers.
                                       73
<PAGE>

The Controlling Party (or the party that would be the Controlling Party if an
Indenture Event of Default had occurred) shall remove the Subordination Agent
if:

   (1)   the Subordination Agent fails to comply with Section 6.09;

   (2)   the Subordination Agent is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

   (3) a receiver of the Subordination Agent shall be appointed or any public
officer shall take charge or control of the Subordination Agent or its property
or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation; or

   (4)   the Subordination Agent otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

   If the Subordination Agent resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in
the office of Subordination Agent for any reason (the Subordination Agent in
such event being referred to herein as the retiring Subordination Agent), the
Controlling Party (or the party that would be the Controlling Party if an
Indenture Event of Default had occurred) shall in consultation with American
promptly appoint a successor Subordination Agent. If a successor Subordination
Agent shall not have been appointed within 60 days after such notice of
resignation or removal, the retiring Subordination Agent, one or more of the
Trustees, one or more of the Liquidity Providers or the Policy Provider may
petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor
Subordination Agent to act until such time, if any, as a successor shall have
been appointed as provided above.

   A successor Subordination Agent shall deliver (x) a written acceptance of its
appointment as Subordination Agent hereunder to the retiring Subordination Agent
and (y) a written assumption of its obligations hereunder and under each
Liquidity Facility to each party hereto, upon which the resignation or removal
of the retiring Subordination Agent shall become effective, and the successor
Subordination Agent shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the
Subordination Agent under this Agreement. The successor Subordination Agent
shall mail a notice of its succession to the Policy Provider, the Liquidity
Providers and the Trustees. The retiring Subordination Agent shall promptly
transfer its rights under each of the Policy, Liquidity Facilities and all of
the property and all books and records, or true, complete and correct copies
thereof, held by it as Subordination Agent to the successor Subordination Agent.

   If the Subordination Agent fails to comply with Section 6.09 (to the extent
applicable), one or more of the Trustees, one or more of the Liquidity Providers
or the Policy Provider may petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the
removal of the Subordination Agent and the appointment of a successor
Subordination Agent.

                                       74
<PAGE>

   Notwithstanding the foregoing, no resignation or removal of the Subordination
Agent shall be effective unless and until a successor has been appointed. No
appointment of a successor Subordination Agent shall be effective unless and
until the Rating Agencies shall have delivered a Ratings Confirmation.

      (b) Any corporation, bank, trust company or other financial institution
into which the Subordination Agent may be merged or converted or with which it
may be consolidated, or any corporation, bank, trust company or other financial
institution resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the
Subordination Agent shall be a party, or any corporation, bank, trust company or
other financial institution succeeding to all or substantially all of the
corporate trust business of the Subordination Agent, shall be the successor of
the Subordination Agent hereunder, provided that such corporation, bank, trust
company or financial institution shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under
Section 6.09, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on
the part of any of the parties hereto, except that such corporation, bank, trust
company or financial institution shall give prompt subsequent notice of such
transaction to each Liquidity Provider, American and the Policy Provider.

                              ARTICLE VIII

                       SUPPLEMENTS AND AMENDMENTS

   Section 8.01 Amendments, Waivers, Etc. (a) This Agreement may not be
supplemented, amended or modified without the consent of each Trustee (acting,
except in the case of any amendment pursuant to Section 3.06(e)(v)(y) with
respect to any Replacement Primary Liquidity Facility, any amendment pursuant to
Section 3.06(c)(ii) hereof with respect to any Replacement Above-Cap Liquidity
Facility or any amendment contemplated by the penultimate sentence of this
Section 8.01(a), with the consent of holders of Certificates of the related
Class evidencing Fractional Undivided Interests in the related Trust aggregating
not less than a majority in interest in such Trust or as otherwise authorized
pursuant to the relevant Trust Agreement (including, without limitation, without
the consent of the Certificateholders to the extent permitted thereby, Section
9.01 of the Basic Agreement)), the Subordination Agent, the Policy Provider and
each Liquidity Provider; provided, however, that this Agreement may be
supplemented, amended or modified without the consent of any Trustee in order
(i) to cure any ambiguity or omission or to correct any mistake, (ii) to correct
or supplement any provision, or (iii) to make any other provision in regard to
matters or questions arising hereunder that will not materially adversely affect
the interests of any Trustee or the holders of the related Class of
Certificates, and without the consent of any Liquidity Provider if such
supplement, amendment or modification is in accordance with Section 8.01(c) or
Section 8.01(d) and Exhibit A hereto; provided further, however, that, if such

                                       75
<PAGE>
supplement, amendment or modification (x) would directly or indirectly amend,
modify or supersede, or otherwise conflict with, Section 2.02(b), 3.06(c),
3.06(e), 3.06(f) (other than the last sentence thereof), 3.06(l), this proviso
of 8.01(a), the last sentence of 8.01(a), 8.01(c), 8.01(d) or 9.06
(collectively, the "American Provisions"), (y) would otherwise affect the
interests of a potential Replacement Primary Liquidity Provider or of American
with respect to its ability to replace any Liquidity Facility or with respect to
its payment obligations under any Operative Agreement or (z) is made pursuant to
the penultimate sentence of this Section 8.01(a) or pursuant to Section 8.01(c)
or 8.01(d), then such supplement, amendment or modification shall not be
effective without the additional written consent of American. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, without the consent of each Certificateholder affected thereby,
the Policy Provider and each Primary Liquidity Provider, no supplement,
amendment or modification of this Agreement may (i) reduce the percentage of the
interest in any Trust evidenced by the Certificates issued by such Trust
necessary to consent to modify or amend any provision of this Agreement or to
waive compliance therewith or (ii), except as provided in the penultimate
sentence of this Section 8.01(a) or Section 8.01(d), modify Section 2.04, 3.02
or 3.03 hereof relating to the distribution of monies received by the
Subordination Agent hereunder from the Equipment Notes or pursuant to the
Liquidity Facilities or the Policy. Notwithstanding any provision to the
contrary contained herein, any modification to (x) Section 2.04(b), 3.02 or 3.03
hereof that would change the priority of payments to the Above-Cap Reserve
Account, or (y) any provision herein that would materially adversely affect the
rights or materially increase the obligations of the Above-Cap Liquidity
Provider under its Above-Cap Liquidity Facility shall also require the consent
of the Above-Cap Liquidity Provider. Nothing contained in this Section 8.01(a)
shall require the consent of a Trustee at any time following the payment of
Final Distributions with respect to the related Class of Certificates. Each of
the Liquidity Providers and the Policy Provider hereby agrees and confirms
(except, with respect to the Above-Cap Liquidity Provider, as provided in the
second immediately preceding sentence) that (i) it shall be deemed to consent to
the issuance of the New Class C Certificates, New Class D Certificates, Class E
Certificates, New Series of Series C Equipment Notes, New Series of Series D
Equipment Notes, Series E Equipment Notes and the amendments to this Agreement
made in connection therewith in accordance with Section 8.01(c) or Section
8.01(d), as the case may be, and (ii) any such issuance shall not affect any of
its respective obligations under its Liquidity Facility or the Policy, as
applicable. The parties hereto agree that no amendments shall be made to this
Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(c), 8.01(d) or Exhibit A hereto unless each
Rating Agency shall have provided written confirmation that the issuance of the
New Class C Certificates, the New Class D Certificates or the Class E
Certificates, as the case may be, will not cause the rating then in effect by
such Rating Agency for any Class of Certificates (without regard, in the case of
the Class G Certificates, to the Policy), to be withdrawn, suspended or
downgraded. If the Replacement Liquidity Facility for any Liquidity Facility is
to be comprised of more than one instrument as contemplated by the

                                       76
<PAGE>
definition of the term "Replacement Above-Cap Liquidity Facility" or
"Replacement Primary Liquidity Facility", as the case may be, then each party
hereto agrees to amend this Agreement and the other Operative Agreements to
incorporate appropriate mechanics for multiple Liquidity Facilities for a single
Trust. The Policy Provider agrees and confirms that (i) its consent shall not be
required in connection with a transfer of the obligations of the Above-Cap
Liquidity Provider or the replacement of the Above-Cap Liquidity Facility under
the circumstances specified in Part 5(i) of the Schedule to the ISDA Master
Agreement forming a part of the Above-Cap Liquidity Facility and (ii) any such
transfer or replacement shall not affect any of its obligations under its
Policy.

      (b) Subject to Section 2.06, if the Subordination Agent, as the registered
holder of any Equipment Notes, receives a request for its consent to any
amendment, modification, consent or waiver under such Equipment Notes, the
Indenture pursuant to which such Equipment Notes were issued or the related
Participation Agreement or other related document, (i) if no Indenture Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to such Indenture,
the Subordination Agent shall request directions with respect to each series of
such Equipment Notes from the Trustee of the Trust which holds such Equipment
Notes and shall vote or consent in accordance with the directions of such
Trustee except that, so long as the Final Distributions on the Class G
Certificates have not been made or any Policy Provider Obligations remain
outstanding and no Policy Provider Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Subordination Agent shall act with respect to this clause (i) in
accordance with the directions of the Policy Provider rather than the Class G
Trustee with respect to the Class G Equipment Notes held in the Class G Trust,
and (ii) if any Indenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing
with respect to such Indenture, the Subordination Agent will exercise its voting
rights as directed by the Controlling Party, subject to Sections 4.01 and 4.04;
provided that no such amendment, modification, consent or waiver shall, without
the consent of each Liquidity Provider and the Policy Provider, (i) reduce the
amount of principal or interest payable by American under any Equipment Note,
(ii) create any Lien with respect to any Collateral prior to or pari passu with
the Lien of the related Indenture or deprive any holder of an Equipment Note
issued under such Indenture of the benefit of the Lien of such Indenture upon
the related Collateral or (iii) deprive such Liquidity Provider or the Policy
Provider, as the case may be, of any benefits provided to it under Section 2.14
of any Indenture.

      (c) If Class E Certificates are issued, this Agreement shall be amended by
written agreement of the Subordination Agent and the Trustees to provide for the
subordination of such Class E Certificates to the Class G Certificates, the
Class C Certificates and the Class D Certificates substantially in the same
manner as the Class D Certificates are subordinated hereunder to the Class G
Certificates and the Class C Certificates. No such amendment shall materially
adversely affect any Trustee or the

                                       77
<PAGE>

Policy Provider. The amendment to this Agreement to give effect to the issuance
of any Class E Certificates shall, without limitation:

   (i)   add the Class E Trustee as a party to this Agreement;

   (ii) revise the definitions of "Cash Collateral Account", "Certificate",
"Class", "Controlling Party", "Equipment Notes", "Final Legal Distribution
Date", "Liquidity Facility", "Liquidity Provider", "LTV Ratio", "Stated Interest
Rate", "Trust", "Trust Agreement" and "Trustee", as appropriate, to reflect the
issuance of the Class E Certificates (and the subordination thereof); and

   (iii) revise the provisions of this Agreement governing distributions with
respect to Certificates and related notices, including, without limitation,
Sections 2.04, 3.01, 3.02, 3.03 and 3.06, if necessary, to provide for
distributions on the Class E Certificates after payment of all relevant
distributions on the Class D Certificates.

If, with respect to any Aircraft, Series E Equipment Notes are issued to any
Person other than the Class E Trust, this Agreement shall be amended by written
agreement of the indenture trustees of the Series E Equipment Notes, the
Trustees and the Subordination Agent to (i) provide for each holder of a Series
E Equipment Note to be bound by the provisions of Section 2.06(a) so that the
Controlling Party, among other things, shall be entitled to direct the Loan
Trustee under the applicable Indenture as provided in such Section 2.06(a) (and
such Series E Equipment Notes shall make effective provision therefor so as to
bind each holder thereof to such provisions of Section 2.06(a)) and (ii) to
revise the definitions of "Controlling Party" and "Equipment Notes", as
appropriate, to reflect the issuance of the Series E Equipment Notes (and the
prior rights, as against the holders of such Series E Equipment Notes, of the
Class G Trustee, the Class C Trustee and the Class D Trustee to be such
"Controlling Party"). No such amendment shall materially adversely affect any
Trustee.

   (d) If there is a Refunding, this Agreement shall be amended by written
agreement of the Subordination Agent, the Trustees of the continuing Trusts, the
Trustees of the newly created Trusts and, if applicable, the new Class C Primary
Liquidity Provider. Such amendment shall comply with the provisions of Exhibit A
hereto, shall substitute the new class C trustee and/or the new class D trustee
for the Class C Trustee or Class D Trustee of the Trusts being prepaid and shall
make other Permitted Refunding Changes (as defined in such Exhibit A) including
without limitation:

   (i) revise the definitions as appropriate of: Class C Primary Liquidity
Facility (if a new Primary Liquidity Facility is arranged for the new Class C
Trust as contemplated in Exhibit A hereto), Class C Primary Liquidity Provider,
Class C Trust Agreement, Class D Trust Agreement, Fee Letter, Series C Equipment
Notes, and Series D Equipment Notes,

                                       78
<PAGE>
including without limitation, to reflect the new date and other identifying
characteristics of any substituted agreement; and

   (ii) revise the definitions of Stated Interest Rate and Final Legal
Distribution Date to reflect the terms of the new Certificates.

No Refunding shall adversely affect any right or obligation of the Class G
Primary Liquidity Provider or the Class G Above-Cap Liquidity Provider, except
to the extent expressly provided in paragraph 2 of Exhibit A. Prior to the
termination or replacement of the Class C Primary Liquidity Provider in
connection with a Refunding, all of the Liquidity Obligations owed or payable to
such Class C Primary Liquidity Provider must be paid in full.

   Section 8.02 Subordination Agent Protected. If, in the reasonable opinion of
the institution acting as the Subordination Agent hereunder, any document
required to be executed by it pursuant to the terms of Section 8.01 adversely
affects any right, duty, immunity or indemnity with respect to such institution
under this Agreement or any Liquidity Facility, the Subordination Agent may in
its discretion decline to execute such document.

   Section 8.03 Effect of Supplemental Agreements. Upon the execution of any
amendment, consent or supplement hereto pursuant to the provisions hereof, this
Agreement shall be and shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance
therewith and the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties
and immunities under this Agreement of the parties hereto and beneficiaries
hereof shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject
in all respects to such modifications and amendments, and all the terms and
conditions of any such supplemental agreement shall be and be deemed to be part
of the terms and conditions of this Agreement for any and all purposes. In
executing or accepting any supplemental agreement permitted by this Article
VIII, the Subordination Agent shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully
protected in relying upon, an opinion of counsel stating that the execution of
such supplemental agreement is authorized or permitted by this Agreement.

   Section 8.04 Notice to Rating Agencies. Promptly following its receipt of
each amendment, consent, modification, supplement or waiver contemplated by this
Article VIII, the Subordination Agent shall send a copy thereof to each Rating
Agency.

   Section 9.08 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of

counterpart). Each counterpart of this Agreement including a signature page or
pages executed by each of the parties hereto shall be an original counterpart of
this Agreement, but all of such counterparts together constitute one instrument.

   Section 9.09 Subordination. (a) As among the Trustees, and as between the
Liquidity Providers and the Policy Provider, on the one hand, and the Trustees
and the Certificateholders, on the other hand, this Agreement shall be a
subordination agreement for purposes of Section 510 of the United States
Bankruptcy Code, as amended from time to time. In addition, as among the
Trustees and the Certificateholders of each Class, this Agreement shall be a
subordination agreement for purposes of such Section 510.

   (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement, if prior to the payment
in full to (i) the Primary Liquidity Providers of all Liquidity Obligations then
due and payable and (ii) Policy Provider of all Policy Provider Obligations, or
prior to the distribution in full of any other amount distributable hereunder,
any party hereto shall have received any payment or distribution in respect of
Equipment Notes or any other amount under the Indentures or other Operative
Agreements which, had the subordination provisions of this Agreement been
properly applied to such payment, distribution or other amount, would not have
been distributed to such Person, then such payment, distribution or other amount
shall be received and held in trust by such Person and paid over or delivered to
the Subordination Agent for application as provided herein.

   (c) If any Trustee, any Liquidity Provider, the Policy Provider or the
Subordination Agent receives any payment in respect of any obligations owing or
amounts distributable hereunder (or, in the case of the Primary Liquidity
Providers or the Policy Provider, in respect of the Liquidity Obligations or the
Policy Provider Obligations, as the case may be), which is subsequently
invalidated, declared preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a
trustee, receiver or other party, then, to the extent of such payment, such
obligations or amounts (or, in the case of the Primary Liquidity Providers or
the Policy Provider, such Liquidity Obligations or the Provider Policy
Obligations, as the case may be) intended to be satisfied shall be revived and
continue in full force and effect as if such payment had not been received.

   (d) The Trustees (on behalf of themselves and the holders of Certificates),
the Liquidity Providers, the Policy Provider and the Subordination Agent
expressly confirm and agree that the payment priorities and subordination
specified in Articles II and III shall apply in all circumstances,
notwithstanding (x) the fact that the obligations owed to the Trustees are
secured by certain assets and the Liquidity Obligations and the Policy Provider
Obligations are not so secured and (y) the occurrence of an American Bankruptcy
Event or any similar event or occurrence relating to any other Person (it being
expressly agreed that the payment priorities and subordination specified in
Articles II and III shall apply whether or not a claim for post-petition or
post-filing interest is allowed in the proceedings resulting from such American
Bankruptcy Event or other event or occurrence). The Trustees expressly agree (on
behalf of themselves and the holders of Certificates) not to assert priority
over the holders of Liquidity Obligations or Policy

                                       83
<PAGE>
Provider Obligations due to their status as secured creditors in any bankruptcy,
insolvency or other legal proceeding.

   (e) Each of the Trustees (on behalf of themselves and the holders of
Certificates), the Liquidity Providers and the Subordination Agent may take any
of the following actions without impairing its rights under this Agreement:

   (i) obtain a Lien on any property to secure any amounts owing to it
hereunder, including, in the case of the Primary Liquidity Providers and the
Policy Provider, the Liquidity Obligations or the Policy Provider Obligations,
as the case may be;

   (ii) obtain the primary or secondary obligation of any other obligor with
respect to any amounts owing to it hereunder, including, in the case of the
Primary Liquidity Providers and the Policy Provider, any of the Liquidity
Obligations or the Policy Provider Obligations, as the case may be;

   (iii) renew, extend, increase, alter or exchange any amounts owing to it
hereunder, including, in the case of the Primary Liquidity Providers and the
Policy Provider, any of the Liquidity Obligations or the Policy Provider
Obligations, as the case may be, or release or compromise any obligation of any
obligor with respect thereto;

   (iv) refrain from exercising any right or remedy, or delay in exercising any
right or remedy, which it may have; or

   (v) take any other action which might discharge a subordinated party or a
surety under applicable law;

provided, however, that the taking of any such actions by any of the Trustees,
the Liquidity Providers, the Policy Provider or the Subordination Agent shall
not prejudice the rights or adversely affect the obligations of any other party
under this Agreement.

matter hereof or any of the transactions contemplated hereby may not be enforced
in or by such courts.

   (b) EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS
TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF

EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING, AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT

immunity it may have from the jurisdiction of the courts of the United States or
of any state thereof and waives any immunity any of its properties located in

                                SCHEDULE 2.02(b)

   Upon the funding of the Above-Cap Account or Above-Cap Reserve Account or the
maturity or redemption of any investment of funds in any such account (such
funds, the "Funds"), Credit Suisse First Boston International shall send a
notice to the Subordination Agent containing a list of Eligible Investments (the
"Specified Investments") which shall contain at least 10 investments in open
market commercial paper of corporations incorporated under the laws of the
United States of America or any state thereof.

   Following receipt of such notice, the Subordination Agent shall use its best
efforts to invest or reinvest the Funds in any of the investments identified as
a Specified Investment. If no Specified Investment is then available, the
Subordination Agent shall use the Funds to purchase overnight Federal funds from
any institution described in clause (c) of the definition of "Eligible
Investments"; provided, that, promptly upon any of the investments identified as
a Specified Investment becoming available, the Subordination Agent shall invest
or reinvest the Funds in such investments.

   Any investments made by the Subordination Agent pursuant to this Schedule
2.02(b) shall be subject to the provisions of Section 2.02 (including, without
limitation, the limitations on liability of the Subordination Agent).

   Following such investment or reinvestment of the Funds by the Subordination
Agent in any Specified Investment or other Eligible Investment, the
Subordination Agent shall deliver a written statement to Credit Suisse First
Boston International setting forth for each such Specified Investment or
Eligible Investment the CUSIP number or other similar number for such obligation
(or, if such obligation does not have such a number, (i) the name of the issuer,
(ii) its maturity date, (iii) its yield or rate of return, and (iv) its rating,
if rated by any nationally recognized rating agency).

                                                                    Exhibit A to
                                                         Intercreditor Agreement

                                 REFUNDING TERMS

American shall have the option to prepay (each such prepayment and the related
transactions contemplated by this Exhibit A, a "Refunding") at any time without
premium all outstanding Series C Equipment Notes and all outstanding Series D
Equipment Notes, provided that all the following conditions are complied with:

1.   Ratings Confirmation with respect to the Refunding shall have been received
     with respect to any then-rated Class of Certificates not undergoing such
     Refunding.

2.   American shall have issued, pursuant to each Indenture, new Series C
     Equipment Notes and Series D Equipment Notes (each, a "New Series"). The
     economic terms of either New Series (the "Specified Economic Terms") may
     not differ in any material respect from the economic terms of the
     corresponding series of Equipment Notes being prepaid (a "Prepaid Series"),
     except that:

              (a)     the interest rates of either New Series or both may be
                      changed, and either New Series or both may provide for
                      specified increases and decreases in the stated interest
                      rate under stated circumstances or, solely in the case of
                      a New Series of Series D Equipment Notes, floating rate
                      interest;

              (b)     the principal amount of either New Series or both issued
                      under any Indenture may be increased or decreased;
                      provided that the principal amount of a New Series issued
                      under any Indenture may not change by more than 20% of the
                      principal amount of the corresponding Prepaid Series
                      issued under such Indenture;

              (c)     the maturity date of either New Series or both may be made
                      earlier or later by not more than one year before or after
                      the original maturity date of the corresponding Prepaid
                      Series; and

              (d)    the amount of premium on prepayment on either New Series or
                     both may be changed.

3.   Each New Series shall be substantially in the form of the respective series
     of Equipment Notes being prepaid, with only Permitted Refunding Changes
     thereto.

                                      A-1
<PAGE>

     "Permitted Refunding Changes," with respect to any instrument, agreement or
     other document, means only such changes, amendments and modifications to
     such instrument, agreement or other document as may be necessary or
     advisable to implement (x) the Specified Economic Terms and (y) conforming
     and clarifying changes to reflect the transactions contemplated by this
     Exhibit A.

4.   Following a Refunding, if a New Series has been purchased by a New Trust
     (as defined below) with proceeds of New Class C Certificates (as defined
     below) or New Class D Certificates (as defined below) that were sold to
     Persons unaffiliated with American, such new Series may only be prepaid if
     all series of Equipment Notes issued under the underlying related Indenture
     that are senior to such New Series are also prepaid.

5.   American and a Trustee (a "New Trustee") shall have entered into a Trust
     Supplement for a new Class C Trust and a new Class D Trust (each, a "New
     Trust") (providing for the issuance of new Class C Certificates and new
     Class D Certificates respectively) substantially in the form of the Trust
     Supplements of the Trusts holding the corresponding Prepaid Series (the
     "Terminating Trusts"), in each case, with Permitted Refunding Changes.

6.   In the case of the new Class C Trust, American may arrange for a Primary
     Liquidity Facility for the new Class C Trust substantially in the form of
     the Class C Primary Liquidity Facility or any Replacement Primary Liquidity
     Facility, or for a continuation of the existing Class C Primary Liquidity
     Facility in favor of the New Trustee, in either case, with Permitted
     Refunding Changes. There shall be no Liquidity Facility for any new Class D
     Trust.

7.   [RESERVED].

8.   Pursuant to amendments to reflect Permitted Refunding Changes, each New
     Trustee, in substitution of the corresponding Trustee of the relevant
     Terminating Trust, shall become a party to this Intercreditor Agreement and
     to the Participation Agreements, in each case, as they may be amended as
     provided in the last paragraph of this Exhibit A.

9.   New Class C Certificates ("New Class C Certificates") shall have been sold
     to one or more Persons unaffiliated with American, other than the original
     registered holder (or the named beneficiary of such original registered
     holder or any person who holds Class C Certificates for the benefit of such
     named beneficiary) of definitive trust certificates of the Terminating
     Trusts, and from the proceeds thereof there shall have been purchased the
     relevant series of New Notes by the relevant New Trustee.

                                      A-2
<PAGE>
     Concurrently with the sale of New Class C Certificates, new Class D
     Certificates ("New Class D Certificates") may be sold to one or more
     Persons affiliated with American or unaffiliated with American (other than,
     in each case, the original registered holder (or the named beneficiary of
     such original holder or any person who holds Class D Certificates for the
     benefit of such named beneficiary) of definitive trust certificates of the
     Terminating Trusts), and from the proceeds thereof there shall have been
     purchased the relevant series of New Notes by the relevant New Trustee. If
     the Series D Equipment Notes are the subject of such a Refunding, and if
     the New Series of Series D Equipments issued in such Refunding is purchased
     by a New Trust with proceeds of New Class D Certificates that are sold to
     one or more Persons affiliated with American, such New Series of Series D
     Equipment Notes may, at American's option, be prepaid as part of a second
     Refunding in which additional new Class D Certificates are sold to one or
     more Persons unaffiliated with American as provided in this Exhibit A.

10.  Each New Series of Equipment Notes shall be issued to the Subordination
     Agent as agent of the New Trustee of the applicable New Trust.

11.  American shall have paid or made provision for the payment of all costs of
     implementing the foregoing.

12.  American shall provide the Policy Provider with prior notice of its
     intention to effect a Refunding as promptly as practicable, but in no event
     less than 5 business days in advance of such Refunding.

In lieu of prepaying both the Series C Equipment Notes and Series D Equipment
Notes, American shall have the right to prepay only the Series C Equipment
Notes, in which case the conditions relating to Series D Equipment Notes and
Class D Certificates (the "Class D Conditions") shall not be applicable.
American may thereafter prepay the Series D Equipment Notes in which case the
Class D Conditions above will be applicable and the Ratings Confirmation in
respect of the related Refunding shall also be in respect of the Class C
Certificates.

Each party to this Intercreditor Agreement agrees for the benefit of American to
cooperate with American at American's reasonable request to carry out the
purpose of the foregoing provisions on the terms and conditions set forth above.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Intercreditor
Agreement, any Operative Agreement, or any Operative Document or Pass Through
Document (as such terms are defined in each Indenture), any Permitted Refunding
Changes to this Intercreditor Agreement or any such other agreement or
instrument may be made without the consent of any Certificateholder;

                                      A-3

provided that each of the following instruments, agreements or specified
provisions of instruments or agreements may only be amended, modified or
supplemented in connection with a Refunding to make conforming or clarifying
changes resulting from the consummation of the transactions described in this
Exhibit A (or otherwise in accordance with the terms of such instrument or
agreement):
