shall have no rights under this Agreement with respect to any Global Certificate held on their
behalf by DTC, or the Trustee as its custodian, and DTC may be treated by the Trustee and any agent
of the Trustee as the absolute owner of such Global Certificate for all purposes whatsoever.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Trustee or any agent of the Trustee
from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by DTC or
shall impair, as between DTC and its DTC Participants, the operation of customary practices
governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any Class A Certificate. Upon the issuance of
any Global Certificate, the Registrar or its duly appointed agent shall record a nominee of DTC as
the registered holder of such Global Certificate.

          (b) Transfers of any Global Certificate shall be limited to transfers of such Global
Certificate in whole, but not in part, to nominees of DTC, its successor or such successor’s
nominees. Beneficial interests in Global Certificates may be transferred in accordance with the
rules and procedures of DTC and the provisions of Section 4.02 of this Trust Supplement.
Beneficial interests in Global Certificates shall be delivered to all beneficial owners thereof in
the form of Definitive Certificates, if (i) DTC notifies the Trustee in writing that it is no
longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities as depositary for the Global
Certificates, and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Trustee within 90 days of such
notice, (ii) the Company, at its option, advises the Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate
the book-entry system through DTC or (iii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an

less than a majority in interest in the Class A Trust advise the Trustee, the Company and DTC
through DTC Participants in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system through DTC (or a
successor thereto) is no longer in the Class A Certificateholders’ best interests. Neither the
Company nor the Trustee shall be liable if the Company or the Trustee is unable to locate a
qualified successor clearing system.

          (c) [Reserved]

          (d) In connection with the transfer of the entire amount of a Global Certificate to the
beneficial owners thereof pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 4.03, such Global Certificate
shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Trustee shall execute,
authenticate and deliver to each beneficial owner, in exchange for the beneficial interest thereof
in such Global Certificate, an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive Certificates of
authorized denominations, in each case as such beneficial owner and related aggregate principal
amount shall have been identified and otherwise set forth (together with such other information as
may be required for the registration of such Definitive Certificates) in registration instructions
that shall have been delivered by or on behalf of DTC to the Trustee. None of the Company, the
Registrar, the Paying Agent nor the Trustee shall be liable for any

delay in delivery of such registration instructions and each such Person may conclusively rely
on, and shall be protected in relying on, such registration instructions. Upon the issuance of any
Definitive Certificate, the Trustee shall recognize the Person in whose name such Definitive
Certificate is registered in the Register as a Certificateholder hereunder.

          (e) The registered Holder of a Global Certificate may grant proxies and otherwise authorize
any Person, including DTC Participants and Persons that may hold interests through DTC
Participants, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under this Agreement or the
Class A Certificates.

DEFAULT

          Section 6.01 Purchase Rights of Certificateholders. (a) By acceptance of its Class A
Certificate, each Class A Certificateholder agrees that at any time after the occurrence and during
the continuation of a Certificate Buy-Out Event:

     (i) each Class B Certificateholder (other than the Company or any of its Affiliates)
shall have the right to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Class A Certificates
upon ten days’ prior written irrevocable notice to the Trustee, the Class B Trustee and each
other Class B Certificateholder, on the third Business Day following the expiration of such
ten-day notice period, provided that (A) if prior to the end of such ten-day period
any other Class B Certificateholder(s) (other than the Company or any of its Affiliates)
notifies such purchasing Class B Certificateholder that such other Class B
Certificateholder(s) want(s) to participate in such purchase, then such other Class B
Certificateholder(s) may join with the purchasing Class B Certificateholder to purchase all,
but not less than all, of the Class A Certificates pro rata based on the Fractional
Undivided Interest in the Class B Trust held by each such Class B Certificateholder and (B)
upon consummation of such purchase no Class B Certificateholder shall have a right to
purchase the Class A Certificates pursuant to this Section 6.01(a)(i) during the continuance
of such Certificate Buy-Out Event; and

     (ii) if any Refinancing Certificates are issued, each Refinancing Certificateholder
shall have the same right (subject to the same terms and conditions) to purchase
Certificates pursuant to this Section 6.01(a) (and to receive notice in connection
therewith) as the Certificateholders of the Class that such Refinancing Certificates
refinanced.

          The purchase price with respect to the Class A Certificates shall be equal to the Pool Balance
of the Class A Certificates, together with accrued and unpaid interest in respect thereof to the
date of such purchase, and any other amounts then due and payable to the Class A Certificateholders
under this Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Escrow Agreement,

Trust Supplement No. 2009-1A

any Series A Equipment Note held as the property of the Class A Trust or the related Indenture
and Participation Agreement or on or in respect of the Class A Certificates but without any
Premium, provided, however, that if such purchase occurs after (x) a record date
specified in Section 2.03 of the Escrow Agreement relating to the distribution of unused Deposits
and/or accrued and unpaid interest on Deposits and prior to or on the related distribution date
under the Escrow Agreement, such purchase price shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of unused
Deposits and/or interest to be distributed under the Escrow Agreement (which deducted amounts shall
remain distributable to, and may be retained by, the Class A Certificateholders as of such record
date) or (y) the Record Date relating to any Distribution Date, such purchase price shall be
reduced by the amount to be distributed hereunder on such related Distribution Date (which deducted
amounts shall remain distributable to, and may be retained by, the Class A Certificateholders as of
such Record Date); provided further that no such purchase of Class A Certificates
pursuant to this Section 6.01(a) shall be effective unless the purchaser(s) shall certify to the
Trustee that contemporaneously with such purchase, such purchaser(s) is purchasing, pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement, the Class B Trust Agreement or the applicable Refinancing Trust Agreement
(as the case may be), and the Intercreditor Agreement, all of the Class A Certificates. Each
payment of the purchase price of the Class A Certificates referred to in the first sentence of this
paragraph shall be made to an account or accounts designated by the Trustee and each such purchase
shall be subject to the terms of this Section 6.01(a). Each Class A Certificateholder agrees by
its acceptance of its Class A Certificate that it will, upon payment from such Class B
Certificateholder(s) or Refinancing Certificateholder(s), as the case may be, of the purchase price
set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph, forthwith sell, assign, transfer and convey to
the purchaser(s) thereof (without recourse, representation or warranty of any kind except as to its
own acts) all of the right, title, interest and obligation of such Class A Certificateholder in
this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Deposit Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Class
A Liquidity Facility, the NPA, the Note Documents and all Class A Certificates and Escrow Receipts
held by such Class A Certificateholder (excluding all right, title and interest under any of the
foregoing to the extent such right, title or interest is with respect to an obligation not then due
and payable as respects any action or inaction or state of affairs occurring prior to such sale)
and the purchaser(s) shall assume all of such Class A Certificateholder’s obligations under this
Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Deposit Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Class A
Liquidity Facility, the NPA, the Note Documents and all such Class A Certificates and Escrow
Receipts. The Class A Certificates will be deemed to be purchased on the date payment of the
purchase price is made notwithstanding the failure of any Class A Certificateholder to deliver any
Class A Certificate and, upon such a purchase, (i) the Class A Certificateholders shall have no
further rights with respect to the Class A Certificates and (ii) if the purchaser(s) shall so
request, each such Class A Certificateholder will comply with all the provisions of Section 3.04 of
the Basic Agreement and the applicable provisions of this Trust Supplement to enable new Class A
Certificates to be issued to the purchaser(s) in such denominations otherwise authorized under this
Agreement as it shall request. All charges and expenses in connection with the issuance of any
such new Class A Certificates shall be borne by the purchaser(s) thereof.

          (b) This Section 6.01 supplements and, to the extent inconsistent with any 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 6.01 may not be amended in any manner

Trust Supplement No. 2009-1A

without the consent of each Class A Certificateholder and each Class B Certificateholder or,
as the case may be, Refinancing Certificateholder (in each case, other than the Company or any of
its Affiliates in its respective capacity as a Certificateholder) that would be adversely affected
thereby; provided that the purchase price under this Section 6.01 (as in effect on the date
hereof) for any Certificate held by the Company or any of its Affiliates shall not be modified
without the prior written consent of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, if a Certificate
Buy-Out Event ceases to exist and another Certificate Buy-Out Event occurs and is continuing, the
purchase rights set forth in Section 6.01(a) shall be revived notwithstanding any exercise of such
rights during the continuance of any preceding Certificate Buy-Out Event.

Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. The purchase price of such Series A Equipment Notes shall
equal the principal amount of such Series A Equipment Notes. Amounts withdrawn from such Deposit
or Deposits in excess of the purchase price of the Series A Equipment Notes or to the extent not
applied on the Applicable Funding Date to the purchase price of the Series A Equipment Notes shall
be re-deposited by the Trustee with the Depositary on the Applicable Funding Date in accordance
with the terms of the Deposit Agreement. The provisions of this Section 7.01(b) supersede and

Agreement shall apply to the Class A Trust.

          (c) With respect to the Class A Trust, Section 4.01(b) of the Basic Agreement is superseded
and replaced in its entirety with the following: “The Trustee shall establish and maintain on
behalf of the Class A Certificateholders a Special Payments Account as one or more accounts, which

Certificateholders and shall make or permit withdrawals therefrom only as provided in the Agreement
or the Intercreditor Agreement. On each day when one or more Special Payments are made to the
Trustee under the Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee, upon receipt thereof, shall immediately
deposit the aggregate amount of such Special Payments in the Special Payments Account.”

Payment and shall state the Special Distribution date for such Special Payment, which shall occur
15 days after the date of such notice of Special Payment or (if such 15th day is not practicable)

ARTICLE IX

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

          Section 9.01 Final Termination Date. The respective obligations and responsibilities
of the Company and the Trustee created hereby and the Class A Trust created hereby shall terminate
upon the distribution to all Class A Certificateholders 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 9.02 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

Trust Supplement No. 2009-1A

AA Aircraft EETC

24

 

and construed as one and the same instrument. To the extent that any provisions of the Basic
Agreement are superseded by any provisions of this Trust Supplement, any reference to such
provisions of the Basic Agreement herein or in the Basic Agreement shall be deemed to be such
provisions of this Trust Supplement.

          Section 9.03 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT HAS BEEN DELIVERED IN THE STATE OF NEW
YORK AND THIS AGREEMENT AND THE CLASS A CERTIFICATES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY
AND PERFORMANCE.

          Section 9.04 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
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 9.05 Intention of Parties. The parties hereto intend that the Class A Trust
be classified for United States federal income tax purposes as a grantor trust under Subpart E,
Part I, Subchapter J, Chapter 1 of Subtitle A of the Code, and not as a trust or association
taxable as a corporation or as a partnership. Each Certificateholder of, and each Person acquiring
a beneficial interest in, a Class A Certificate, by its acceptance of its Class A Certificate or a
beneficial interest therein, agrees to treat the Class A 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 Class A 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).

Trust Supplement No. 2009-1A

AA Aircraft EETC

 

 

          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 January 2 and July 2
(each, a “Regular Distribution Date”), commencing on January 2, 2010, 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 Scheduled Payments on the Series A 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 Series A
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 applicable Special
Distribution Date, an amount in respect of such Special Payments on the Series A 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 no 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.

          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, 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 Loan Trustees or any Affiliate of any thereof except as otherwise
expressly provided in the Agreement, in any Note Document or in the

Trust Supplement No. 2009-1A

AA Aircraft EETC

 

 

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
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 $2,000 (or such other denomination that is the lowest integral multiple of $1,000
that is, at the time of issuance, equal to at least 1,000 euros) Fractional Undivided Interest and
multiples of $1,000 in excess 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.

          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.

          Each Certificateholder and Person with a beneficial interest herein, by its acceptance of this
Certificate or such interest, agrees to treat the Trust as a grantor trust for all U.S. federal,
state and local income tax purposes.

          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 a Plan or any trust established with respect to a Plan,
have been used to acquire 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 materially similar provisions of Similar Law pursuant to one
or more prohibited transaction statutory or administrative exemptions.

          THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE.

signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid
for any purpose.

ARTICLE II

AMOUNT AND TERMS OF THE COMMITMENT

     Section 2.01 The Advances. The Liquidity Provider hereby irrevocably agrees, on the
terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make Advances to the Borrower from time to time on
any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until 12:00 noon (New York City time) on
the Expiry Date (unless the obligations of the Liquidity Provider shall be earlier terminated in
accordance with the terms of Section 2.04(b)) in an aggregate amount at any time outstanding not to
exceed the Maximum Commitment.

     Section 2.02 Making of Advances. (a) Each Interest Advance shall be made by the
Liquidity Provider upon delivery to the Liquidity Provider of a written and completed Notice of
Borrowing in substantially the form of Annex I, signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower,
such Interest Advance to be in an amount not exceeding the Maximum Available

Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)

(2009-1 Aircraft EETC)

Commitment at such time and used solely for the payment when due of interest with respect to
the Class A Certificates at the Stated Interest Rate therefor in accordance with Section 3.05(a)
and 3.05(b) of the Intercreditor Agreement. Each Interest Advance made hereunder shall
automatically reduce the Maximum Available Commitment and the amount available to be borrowed
hereunder by subsequent Advances by the amount of such Interest Advance (subject to reinstatement
as provided in the next sentence). Upon repayment to the Liquidity Provider in full or in part of
the amount of any Interest Advance made pursuant to this Section 2.02(a), together with accrued
interest thereon (as provided herein), the Maximum Available Commitment shall be reinstated by an
amount equal to the amount of such Interest Advance so repaid, but not to exceed the Maximum
Commitment; provided, however, that the Maximum Available Commitment shall not be
so reinstated at any time if (x) both a Performing Note Deficiency exists and a Liquidity Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing or (y) a Final Advance, a Downgrade Advance, a
Non-Extension Advance or a Special Termination Advance shall have occurred.

          (b) (i) A Non-Extension Advance shall be made by the Liquidity Provider if this Agreement is
not extended in accordance with Section 3.05(d) of the Intercreditor Agreement unless a Replacement
Liquidity Facility to replace this Agreement shall have been previously delivered to the Borrower
in accordance with said Section 3.05(d), upon delivery to the Liquidity Provider of a written and
completed Notice of Borrowing in substantially the form of Annex II, signed by a Responsible
Officer of the Borrower, in an amount equal to the Maximum Available Commitment at such time, and
shall be used to fund the Class A Cash Collateral Account in accordance with Sections 3.05(d) and
3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement.

          (ii) A Downgrade Advance shall be made by the Liquidity Provider upon the occurrence of a
Downgrade Event (as provided for in Section 3.05(c) of the Intercreditor Agreement) unless a
Replacement Liquidity Facility to replace this Agreement shall have been previously delivered to
the Borrower in accordance with said Section 3.05(c), upon delivery to the Liquidity Provider of a
written and completed Notice of Borrowing in substantially the form of Annex III, signed by a
Responsible Officer of the Borrower, in an amount equal to the Maximum Available Commitment at such
time, and shall be used to fund the Class A Cash Collateral Account in accordance with Sections
3.05(c) and 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement.

          (c) A Final Advance shall be made by the Liquidity Provider following the receipt by the
Borrower of a Termination Notice from the Liquidity Provider pursuant to Section 6.01(a) upon
delivery to the Liquidity Provider of a written and completed Notice of Borrowing in substantially
the form of Annex IV, signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, in an amount equal to the
Maximum Available Commitment at such time, and shall be used to fund the Class A Cash Collateral
Account (in accordance with Sections 3.05(f) and 3.05(i) of the Intercreditor Agreement).

          (d) A Special Termination Advance shall be made in a single Borrowing upon the receipt by the
Borrower of a Special Termination Notice from the Liquidity Provider pursuant to Section 6.01(b),
by delivery to the Liquidity Provider of a written and completed

Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)

(2009-1 Aircraft EETC)

9

 

Notice of Borrowing in substantially the form of Annex V, signed by a Responsible Officer of
the Borrower, in an amount equal to the Maximum Available Commitment at such time, and shall be
used to fund the Class A Cash Collateral Account (in accordance with Section 3.05(f) and Section
3.05(k) of the Intercreditor Agreement).

          (e) Each Borrowing shall be made by notice in writing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) in
substantially the form required by Section 2.02(a), 2.02(b), 2.02(c) or 2.02(d), as the case may
be, given by the Borrower to the Liquidity Provider. If a Notice of Borrowing is delivered by the
Borrower in respect of any Borrowing no later than 12:30 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business
Day, upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 with respect to such
requested Borrowing, the Liquidity Provider shall make available to the Borrower, in accordance
with its payment instructions, the amount of such Borrowing in Dollars and immediately available
funds, before 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Business Day or before 12:30 p.m. (New York
City time) on such later Business Day specified in such Notice of Borrowing. If a Notice of
Borrowing is delivered by the Borrower in respect of any Borrowing after 12:30 p.m. (New York City
time) on a Business Day, upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02
with respect to such requested Borrowing, the Liquidity Provider shall make available to the
Borrower, in accordance with its payment instructions, the amount of such Borrowing in Dollars and
immediately available funds, before 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the first Business Day next
following the day of receipt of such Notice of Borrowing or on such later Business Day specified by
the Borrower in such Notice of Borrowing. Payments of proceeds of a Borrowing shall be made by
wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Borrower in accordance with such wire transfer
instructions as the Borrower shall furnish from time to time to the Liquidity Provider for such
purpose. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. Each Notice
of Borrowing shall be effective upon delivery of a copy thereof to the Liquidity Provider at the
address and in the manner specified in Section 7.02 hereof.

          (f) Upon the making of any Advance requested pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing in accordance
with the Borrower’s payment instructions, the Liquidity Provider shall be fully discharged of its
obligation hereunder with respect to such Notice of Borrowing, and the Liquidity Provider shall not
thereafter be obligated to make any further Advances hereunder in respect of such Notice of
Borrowing to the Borrower or to any other Person (including the Class A Trustee or any Class A
Certificateholder). If the Liquidity Provider makes an Advance requested pursuant to a Notice of
Borrowing before 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the second Business Day after the date of
payment specified in Section 2.02(e), the Liquidity Provider shall have fully discharged its
obligations hereunder with respect to such Advance and an event of default shall not have occurred
hereunder. Following the making of any Advance pursuant to Section 2.02(b), 2.02(c) or 2.02(d) to
fund the Class A Cash Collateral Account, the Liquidity Provider shall have no interest in or
rights to the Class A Cash Collateral Account, such Advance or any other amounts from time to time
on deposit in the Class A Cash Collateral Account; provided that the foregoing shall not
affect or impair the obligations of the Subordination Agent to make the distributions contemplated
by Section 3.05(e) or 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement. By paying to the Borrower proceeds
of Advances requested by the Borrower in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the
Liquidity Provider makes no

Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)

(2009-1 Aircraft EETC)

10

 

representation as to, and assumes no responsibility for, the correctness or sufficiency for
any purpose of the amount of the Advances so made and requested.

     Section 2.03 Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Liquidity Provider the fees set
forth in the Fee Letter.

     Section 2.04 Reduction or Termination of the Maximum Commitment. (a) Automatic
Reduction. Promptly following each date on which the Required Amount is reduced as a result of
a reduction in the Pool Balance of the Class A Certificates, the Maximum Commitment shall
automatically be reduced to an amount equal to such reduced Required Amount (as calculated by the
Borrower). The Borrower shall give notice of any such automatic reduction of the Maximum
Commitment to the Liquidity Provider and American within two Business Days thereof. The failure by
the Borrower to furnish any such notice shall not affect any such automatic reduction of the
Maximum Commitment.

          (b) Termination. Upon the making of any Provider Advance, Special Termination Advance
or Final Advance hereunder or the occurrence of the Termination Date, the obligation of the
Liquidity Provider to make further Advances hereunder shall automatically and irrevocably
terminate, and the Borrower shall not be entitled to request any further Borrowing hereunder.

     Section 2.05 Repayments of Interest Advances, the Special Termination Advance or the Final
Advance. Subject to Sections 2.06, 2.07 and 2.09 hereof, the Borrower hereby agrees, without
notice of an Advance or demand for repayment from the Liquidity Provider (which notice and demand
are hereby waived by the Borrower), to pay, or to cause to be paid, to the Liquidity Provider (a)
on each date on which the Liquidity Provider shall make an Interest Advance, the Special
Termination Advance or the Final Advance, an amount equal to the amount of such Advance (any such
Advance, until repaid, is referred to herein as an “Unpaid Advance”), plus (b) interest on the
amount of each such Unpaid Advance in the amounts and on the dates determined as provided in
Section 3.07; provided that if (i) the Liquidity Provider shall make a Provider Advance at
any time after making one or more Interest Advances which shall not have been repaid in accordance
with this Section 2.05 or (ii) this Liquidity Facility shall become a Downgraded Facility or
Non-Extended Facility at any time when unreimbursed Interest Advances have reduced the Maximum
Available Commitment to zero, then such Interest Advances shall cease to constitute Unpaid Advances
and shall be deemed to have been changed into an Applied Downgrade Advance or an Applied
Non-Extension Advance, as the case may be, for all purposes of this Agreement (including, without
limitation, for the purpose of determining when such Interest Advance is required to be repaid to
the Liquidity Provider in accordance with Section 2.06 and for the purposes of Section 2.06(b));
provided, further, that amounts in respect of a Special Termination Advance
withdrawn from the Class A Cash Collateral Account for the purpose of paying interest on the Class
A Certificates in accordance with Section 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement (the amount of any
such withdrawal being an “Applied Special Termination Advance”) shall thereafter (subject to
Section 2.06(b)) be treated as an Interest Advance under this Agreement for purposes of determining
the Applicable Liquidity Rate for interest payable thereon; and provided, further,
that if, following the making of a Special Termination Advance, the Liquidity Provider delivers a
Termination Notice to the Borrower

Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)

(2009-1 Aircraft EETC)

11

 

pursuant to Section 6.01(a), such Special Termination Advance shall thereafter be treated as a
Final Advance under this Agreement for purposes of determining the Applicable Liquidity Rate for
interest payable thereon. The Borrower and the Liquidity Provider agree that the repayment in full
of each Interest Advance, Special Termination Advance and Final Advance on the date such Advance is
made is intended to be a contemporaneous exchange for new value given to the Borrower by the
Liquidity Provider. For the avoidance of doubt, interest payable on an Interest Advance, Special
Termination Advance or the Final Advance shall not be regarded as overdue unless such interest is
not paid when due under Section 3.07.

     Section 2.06 Repayments of Provider Advances. (a) Amounts advanced hereunder in
respect of a Provider Advance shall be deposited in the Class A Cash Collateral Account and
invested and withdrawn from the Class A Cash Collateral Account as set forth in Sections 3.05(c),
3.05(d), 3.05(e) and 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement. Subject to Sections 2.07 and 2.09,
the Borrower agrees to pay to the Liquidity Provider, on each Regular Distribution Date, commencing
on the first Regular Distribution Date after the making of a Provider Advance, interest on the
principal amount of any such Provider Advance, in the amounts determined as provided in Section
3.07; provided, however, that amounts in respect of a Provider Advance withdrawn
from the Class A Cash Collateral Account for the purpose of paying interest on the Class A
Certificates in accordance with Section 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement (the amount of any
such withdrawal being (y), in the case of a Downgrade Advance, an “Applied Downgrade Advance” and
(z) in the case of a Non-Extension Advance, an “Applied Non-Extension Advance” and together with an
Applied Downgrade Advance, an “Applied Provider Advance”) shall thereafter (subject to Section
2.06(b)) be treated as an Interest Advance under this Agreement for purposes of determining the
Applicable Liquidity Rate for interest payable thereon; provided, further,
however, that if, following the making of a Provider Advance, the Liquidity Provider
delivers a Termination Notice to the Borrower pursuant to Section 6.01(a), such Provider Advance
shall thereafter be treated as a Final Advance under this Agreement for purposes of determining the
Applicable Liquidity Rate for interest payable thereon. Subject to Sections 2.07 and 2.09,
immediately upon the withdrawal of any amounts from the Class A Cash Collateral Account on account
of a reduction in the Required Amount, the Borrower shall repay to the Liquidity Provider a portion
of the Provider Advances in a principal amount equal to such reduction, plus interest on the
principal amount prepaid as provided in Section 3.07.

          (b) At any time when an Applied Provider Advance or Applied Special Termination Advance (or
any portion thereof) is outstanding, upon the deposit in the Class A Cash Collateral Account of any
amount pursuant to clause “fourth” of Section 3.02 of the Intercreditor Agreement (any such amount
being a “Replenishment Amount”) for the purpose of replenishing or increasing the balance thereof
up to the Required Amount at such time, (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all
Applied Provider Advances and Applied Special Termination Advances (and of Provider Advances and
Special Termination Advances treated as Interest Advances for purposes of determining the
Applicable Liquidity Rate for interest payable thereon) shall be automatically reduced by the
amount of such Replenishment Amount, and (ii) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all
Unapplied Provider Advances and Special Termination Advances shall be automatically increased by
the amount of such Replenishment Amount.

Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)

(2009-1 Aircraft EETC)

12

 

          (c) Upon the provision of a Replacement Liquidity Facility in replacement of this Agreement in
accordance with Section 3.05(e) of the Intercreditor Agreement, as provided in Section 3.05(f) of
the Intercreditor Agreement, amounts remaining on deposit in the Class A Cash Collateral Account
after giving effect to any Applied Provider Advance on the date of such replacement shall be
reimbursed to the Liquidity Provider, but only to the extent such amounts are necessary to repay in
full to the Liquidity Provider all amounts owing to it hereunder.

     Section 2.07 Payments to the Liquidity Provider Under the Intercreditor Agreement. In
order to provide for payment or repayment to the Liquidity Provider of any amounts hereunder, the
Intercreditor Agreement provides that amounts available and referred to in Articles II and III of
the Intercreditor Agreement, to the extent payable to the Liquidity Provider pursuant to the terms
of the Intercreditor Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor
Agreement), shall be paid to the Liquidity Provider in accordance with the terms thereof (but, for
the avoidance of doubt, without duplication of or increase in any amounts payable hereunder).
Amounts so paid to the Liquidity Provider shall be applied by the Liquidity Provider in the order
of priority required by the applicable provisions of Articles II and III of the Intercreditor
Agreement and shall discharge in full the corresponding obligations of the Borrower hereunder.

     Section 2.08 Book Entries. The Liquidity Provider shall maintain in accordance with
its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower resulting
from Advances made from time to time and the amounts of principal and interest payable hereunder
and paid from time to time in respect thereof; provided, however, that the failure
by the Liquidity Provider to maintain such account or accounts shall not affect the obligations of
the Borrower in respect of Advances.

     Section 2.09 Payments from Available Funds Only. All payments to be made by the
Borrower under this Agreement shall be made only from the amounts that constitute Scheduled
Payments, Special Payments and other payments under the Operative Agreements, including payment
under Section 4.02 of the Participation Agreements and payments under Section 2.14 of the
Indentures, and only to the extent that the Borrower shall have sufficient income or proceeds
therefrom to enable the Borrower to make payments in accordance with the terms hereof after giving
effect to the priority of payments provisions set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement. The
Liquidity Provider agrees that it will look solely to such amounts to the extent available for
distribution to it as provided in the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement and that the
Borrower, in its individual capacity, is not personally liable to it for any amounts payable or
liability under this Agreement except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Intercreditor
Agreement or any Participation Agreement. Amounts on deposit in the Class A Cash Collateral
Account shall be available to the Borrower to make payments under this Agreement only to the extent
and for the purposes expressly contemplated in Section 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement.

     Section 2.10 Extension of the Expiry Date; Non-Extension Advance. No earlier than the
60th day and no later than the 40th day prior to the then effective Expiry Date (unless such Expiry
Date is on or after the date that is 15 days after the Final Legal Distribution Date for the Class
A Certificates), the Borrower shall request that the Liquidity Provider extend the Expiry

Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)

(2009-1 Aircraft EETC)

13

 

Date to the earlier of (i) the date that is 15 days after the Final Legal Distribution Date
for the Class A Certificates and (ii) the date that is the day immediately preceding the 364th day
occurring after the last day of the Consent Period (as hereinafter defined). Whether or not the
Borrower has made such request, the Liquidity Provider shall advise the Borrower no earlier than
the 40th day (or, if earlier, the date of the Liquidity Provider’s receipt of such request, if any,
from the Borrower) and no later than the 25th day prior to the then effective Expiry Date (such
period, the “Consent Period”), whether, in its sole discretion, it agrees to so extend the Expiry
Date. If the Liquidity Provider advises the Borrower on or before the date on which the Consent
Period ends that such Expiry Date shall not be so extended, or fails to irrevocably and
unconditionally advise the Borrower on or before the date on which the Consent Period ends that
such Expiry Date shall be so extended (and, in each case, if the Liquidity Provider shall not have
been replaced in accordance with Section 3.5(e) of the Intercreditor Agreement), the Borrower shall
be entitled on and after the date on which the Consent Period ends (but prior to the then effective
Expiry Date) to request a Non-Extension Advance in accordance with Section 2.02(b)(i) and Section
3.5(d) of the Intercreditor Agreement.

ARTICLE III

OBLIGATIONS OF THE BORROWER

     Section 3.01 Increased Costs. Without duplication of any rights created by Section
3.03, if as a result of any Regulatory Change there shall be any increase by an amount reasonably
deemed by the Liquidity Provider to be material in the actual cost to the Liquidity Provider of
making, funding or maintaining any LIBOR Advances or its obligation to make any such LIBOR Advances
or there shall be any reduction by an amount reasonably deemed by the Liquidity Provider to be
material in the amount receivable by the Liquidity Provider under this Agreement or the
Intercreditor Agreement in respect thereof, and in case of either such an increase or reduction,
such event does not arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Liquidity
Provider, from its breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements
contained herein or in the Intercreditor Agreement or from its failure to comply with any such
Regulatory Change (any such increase or reduction being referred to herein as an “Increased Cost”),
then, subject to Sections 2.07 and 2.09, the Borrower shall from time to time pay to the Liquidity
Provider an amount equal to such Increased Cost within 10 Business Days after delivery to the
Borrower and American of a certificate of an officer of the Liquidity Provider describing in
reasonable detail the event by reason of which it claims such Increased Cost and the basis for the
determination of the amount of such Increased Cost; provided that the Borrower shall be
obligated to pay amounts only with respect to any Increased Costs accruing from the date 120 days
prior to the date of delivery of such certificate. Such certificate, in the absence of manifest
error, shall be considered prima facie evidence of the amount of the Increased Costs for purposes
of this Agreement; provided that any determinations and allocations by the Liquidity
Provider of the effect of any Regulatory Change on the costs of maintaining the Advances are made
on a reasonable basis. For the avoidance of doubt, the Liquidity Provider shall not be entitled to
assert any claim under this Section 3.01 in respect of or attributable to Excluded Taxes. The
Liquidity Provider will notify the Borrower and American as promptly as practicable of any event
occurring after the date of this Agreement that will entitle the Liquidity Provider to compensation
under this Section 3.01. The Liquidity Provider agrees to investigate

Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)

(2009-1 Aircraft EETC)

14

 

all commercially reasonable alternatives for reducing any Increased Costs and to use all
commercially reasonable efforts to avoid or minimize, to the greatest extent possible, any claim in
respect of Increased Costs, including, without limitation, by designating a different Lending
Office, if such designation or other action would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any
such claim; provided that the foregoing shall not obligate the Liquidity Provider to take
any action that would, in its reasonable judgment, cause the Liquidity Provider to take any action
that is not materially consistent with its internal policies or is otherwise materially
disadvantageous to the Liquidity Provider or that would cause the Liquidity Provider to incur any
material loss or cost, unless the Borrower or American agrees to reimburse or indemnify the
Liquidity Provider therefor. If no such designation or other action is effected, or, if effected,
such notice fails to avoid the need for any claim in respect of Increased Costs, American may
arrange for a Replacement Liquidity Facility in accordance with Section 3.05(e) of the
Intercreditor Agreement.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, in no event shall the Borrower be required to make
payments under this Section 3.01: (a) in respect of any Regulatory Change proposed by any
applicable governmental authority (including any branch of a legislature), central bank or
comparable agency of the United States or the Liquidity Provider’s jurisdiction of organization or
in which its Lending Office is located and pending as of the date of this Agreement; (b) if a claim
hereunder in respect of an Increased Cost arises through circumstances peculiar to the Liquidity
Provider and that do not affect similarly organized commercial banking institutions in the same
jurisdiction generally that are in compliance with the law, rule, regulation or interpretation
giving rise to the Regulatory Change relating to such Increased Cost; (c) if the Liquidity Provider
shall fail to comply with its obligations under this Section 3.01 or (d) if the Liquidity Provider
is not also seeking payment for similar increased costs in other similarly situated transactions
related to the airline industry.

     Section 3.02 Intentionally omitted.

     Section 3.03 Withholding Taxes. (a) All payments made by the Borrower under this
Agreement shall be made without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes, unless
such deduction or withholding is required by law. If any Taxes are so required to be withheld or
deducted from any amounts payable to the Liquidity Provider under this Agreement, then, subject to
Sections 2.07 and 2.09, the Borrower shall pay to the relevant authorities the full amount so
required to be deducted or withheld and, without duplication of any rights created by Section 3.01,
if such Taxes are Covered Taxes, pay to the Liquidity Provider such additional amounts as shall be
necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by the Liquidity Provider (after
deduction or withholding of all Covered Taxes) shall be equal to the full amount that would have
been received by the Liquidity Provider had no withholding or deduction of Covered Taxes been
required. The Liquidity Provider agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with applicable
legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office if making such
change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may
thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of the Liquidity Provider, be otherwise
materially disadvantageous to the Liquidity Provider. If the Liquidity Provider receives a refund
of, or realizes a net Tax benefit not otherwise available to it as a result of, any Taxes for which
additional amounts were paid by the Borrower pursuant to

Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)

(2009-1 Aircraft EETC)

15

 

this Section 3.03, the Liquidity Provider shall pay to the Borrower (for deposit into the
Collection Account) the amount of such refund (and any interest thereon) or net benefit.

     The Liquidity Provider will (i) provide (on its behalf and on behalf of any participant
holding a Participation pursuant to Section 7.08) to the Borrower (x) on or prior to the Effective
Date two valid completed and executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI
(whichever is applicable), including thereon a valid U.S. taxpayer identification number (or, with
respect to any such participant, such other form or documentation as may be applicable) covering
all amounts receivable by it in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Operative
Agreements and (y) thereafter from time to time such additional forms or documentation as may be
necessary to establish an available exemption from withholding of United States Tax on payments
hereunder so that such forms or documentation are effective for all periods during which it is the
Liquidity Provider and (ii) provide timely notice to the Borrower if any such form or documentation
is or becomes inaccurate. The Liquidity Provider shall deliver to the Borrower such other forms or
documents as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower or required by applicable law to establish
that payments hereunder are exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of Covered Taxes.

          (b) All payments (including, without limitation, Advances) made by the Liquidity Provider
under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without reduction for or on account of,
any Taxes. If any Taxes are required to be withheld or deducted from any amounts payable to the
Borrower under this Agreement, the Liquidity Provider shall (i) within the time prescribed therefor
by applicable law pay to the appropriate governmental or taxing authority the full amount of any
such Taxes (and any additional Taxes in respect of the additional amounts payable under clause (ii)
hereof) and make such reports or returns in connection therewith at the time or times and in the
manner prescribed by applicable law, and (ii) pay to the Borrower an additional amount which (after
deduction of all such Taxes) will be sufficient to yield to the Borrower the full amount which
would have been received by it had no such withholding or deduction been made. Within 30 days
after the date of each payment hereunder, the Liquidity Provider shall furnish to the Borrower the
original or a certified copy of (or other documentary evidence of) the payment of the Taxes
applicable to such payment.

     If any exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, any Taxes required to be borne by the
Liquidity Provider under this Section 3.03(b) is reasonably available to the Borrower without
providing any information regarding the holders or beneficial owners of the Certificates, the
Borrower shall deliver the Liquidity Provider such form or forms and such other evidence of the
eligibility of the Borrower for such exemption or reductions (but without any requirement to
provide any information regarding the holders or beneficial owners of the Certificates) as the
Liquidity Provider may reasonably identify to the Borrower as being required as a condition to
exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, such Taxes.

     Section 3.04 Payments. Subject to Sections 2.07 and 2.09, the Borrower shall make or
cause to be made each payment to the Liquidity Provider under this Agreement so as to cause the
same to be received by the Liquidity Provider not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the
day when due. The Borrower shall make all such payments in Dollars, to the Liquidity Provider in
immediately available funds, by wire transfer to the account of Natixis S.A., acting

Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)

(2009-1 Aircraft EETC)

16

 

via its
New York branch, at JP MORGAN CHASE BANK, New York, NY, ABA
No. [
           ], For
Account of Natixis, NY Branch, Account #:[
           ], Reference to: AMR EETC 2009-1; or to such
other U.S. bank account as the Liquidity Provider may from time to time direct the Subordination
Agent.

     Section 3.05 Computations. All computations of interest based on the Base Rate shall
be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of
interest based on the LIBOR Rate shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for
the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the
period for which such interest is payable.

     Section 3.06 Payment on Non-Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder
shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the
next succeeding Business Day and no additional interest shall be due as a result (and if so made,
shall be deemed to have been made when due). If any payment in respect of interest on an Advance
is so deferred to the next succeeding Business Day, such deferral shall not delay the commencement
of the next Interest Period for such Advance (if such Advance is a LIBOR Advance) or reduce the
number of days for which interest will be payable on such Advance on the next Interest Payment Date
for such Advance.

     Section 3.07 Interest. (a) Subject to Sections 2.07 and 2.09, the Borrower shall
pay, or shall cause to be paid, without duplication, interest on (i) the unpaid principal amount of
each Advance from and including the date of such Advance (or, in the case of an Applied Provider
Advance or Applied Special Termination Advance, from and including the date on which the amount
thereof was withdrawn from the Class A Cash Collateral Account to pay interest on the Class A
Certificates) to but excluding the date such principal amount shall be paid in full (or, in the
case of an Applied Provider Advance or Applied Special Termination Advance, the date on which the
Class A Cash Collateral Account is fully replenished in respect of such Advance) and (ii), to the
extent permitted by law, any other amount due hereunder (whether fees, commissions, expenses or
other amounts or installments of interest on Advances or any such other amount) that is not paid
when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) from and including the due date
thereof to but excluding the date such amount is paid in full, in each such case, at the interest
rate per annum for each day that such amount remains overdue and unpaid equal to the Applicable
Liquidity Rate for such Advance or such other amount, as the case may be, as in effect for such
day, but in no event in any case referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above at a rate per annum
greater than the maximum rate permitted by applicable law; provided, however, that,
if at any time the otherwise applicable interest rate as set forth in this Section 3.07 shall
exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, then to the maximum extent permitted by
applicable law any subsequent reduction in such interest rate will not reduce the rate of interest
payable pursuant to this Section 3.07 below the maximum rate permitted by applicable law until the
total amount of interest accrued equals the absolute amount of interest that would have accrued
(without additional interest thereon) if such otherwise applicable interest rate as set forth in
this Section 3.07 had at all relevant times been in effect.

          (b) Except as provided in Section 3.07(e), each Advance will be either a Base Rate Advance or
a LIBOR Advance as provided in this Section 3.07. Each such Advance will be

Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)

(2009-1 Aircraft EETC)

17

 

a Base Rate Advance for the period from the date of its borrowing to (but excluding) the third
Business Day following the Liquidity Provider’s receipt of the Notice of Borrowing for such
Advance. Thereafter, such Advance shall be a LIBOR Advance; provided that a Provider
Advance shall always be a LIBOR Advance unless the Borrower elects otherwise.

          (c) Each LIBOR Advance shall bear interest during each Interest Period at a rate per annum
equal to the LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin for such LIBOR Advance,
payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period and, in the event of the payment of
principal of such LIBOR Advance on a day other than such last day, on the date of such payment (to
the extent of interest accrued on the amount of principal repaid.

          (d) Each Base Rate Advance shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus
the Applicable Margin for such Base Rate Advance, payable in arrears on each Regular Distribution
Date and, in the event of the payment of principal of such Base Rate Advance on a day other than a
Regular Distribution Date, on the date of such payment (to the extent of interest accrued on the
amount of principal repaid).

          (e) Each outstanding Unapplied Non-Extension Advance shall bear interest in an amount equal to
the Investment Earnings plus the Applicable Margin on amounts on deposit in the Class A Cash
Collateral Account for such Unapplied Non-Extension Advance on the amount of such Unapplied
Non-Extension Advance, from time to time, payable in arrears on each Regular Distribution Date.

          (f) Each amount not paid when due hereunder (whether fees, commissions, expenses or other
amounts or installments of interest on Advances but excluding Advances) shall bear interest, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus 2.0% per annum
until paid.

          (g) If at any time, the Liquidity Provider shall have determined (which determination shall be
conclusive and binding upon the Borrower, absent manifest error) that, by reason of circumstances
affecting the relevant interbank lending market generally, the LIBOR Rate determined or to be
determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the
Liquidity Provider (as conclusively certified by the Liquidity Provider, absent manifest error) of
making or maintaining Advances, the Liquidity Provider shall give facsimile or telephonic notice
thereof (a “Rate Determination Notice”) to the Borrower. If such notice is given, then the
outstanding principal amount of the LIBOR Advances shall be converted to Base Rate Advances
effective from the date of the Rate Determination Notice; provided that the Applicable
Liquidity Rate in respect of such Base Rate Advances shall be increased by one per cent (1.00%).
The Liquidity Provider shall withdraw a Rate Determination Notice given hereunder when the
Liquidity Provider determines that the circumstances giving rise to such Rate Determination Notice
no longer apply to the Liquidity Provider, and the Base Rate Advances shall be converted to LIBOR
Advances effective as the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period after the date of such
withdrawal. Each change in the Base Rate shall become effective immediately. The rates of interest
specified in this Section 3.07 with respect to any Advance or other amount shall be referred to as
the “Applicable Liquidity Rate”.

     Section 3.08 Replacement of Borrower. Subject to Section 5.02, from time to time and
subject to the successor Borrower’s meeting the eligibility requirements set forth in Section 6.09
of the Intercreditor Agreement applicable to the Subordination Agent, upon the effective date and
time specified in a written and completed Notice of Replacement Subordination Agent in
substantially the form of Annex VIII (a “Notice of Replacement Subordination Agent”) delivered to
the Liquidity Provider by the then Borrower, the successor Borrower designated therein shall become
the Borrower for all purposes hereunder.

     Section 3.09 Funding Loss Indemnification. The Borrower shall pay to the Liquidity
Provider, upon the request of the Liquidity Provider, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient
(in the reasonable opinion of the Liquidity Provider) to compensate it for any loss, cost or
expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or redeployment of deposits or other funds acquired
by the Liquidity Provider to fund or maintain any LIBOR Advance (but excluding loss of the
Applicable Margin or anticipated profits) incurred as a result of:

     (1) Any repayment of a LIBOR Advance on a date other than the last day of the Interest
Period for such Advance; or

     (2) Any failure by the Borrower to borrow a LIBOR Advance on the date for borrowing
specified in the relevant notice under Section 2.02.

     Section 3.10 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, if
any change in any law, rule or regulation applicable to or binding on the Liquidity Provider, or
any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central
bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance
by the Liquidity Provider with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of
any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall make it unlawful or impossible for the
Liquidity Provider to maintain or fund its LIBOR Advances, then upon notice to the Borrower and
American by the Liquidity Provider, the outstanding principal amount of the LIBOR Advances shall be
converted to Base Rate Advances (a) immediately upon demand of the Liquidity Provider, if such
change or compliance with such request, in the reasonable judgment of the Liquidity Provider,
requires immediate conversion; or (b) at the expiration of the last Interest Period to expire
before the effective date of any such change or request. The Liquidity Provider will notify the
Borrower and American as promptly as practicable of any event that will or to its knowledge is
reasonably likely to lead to the conversion of LIBOR Advances to Base Rate Advances under this
Section 3.10; provided that a failure by the Liquidity Provider to notify the Borrower or
American of an event that is reasonably likely to lead to such a conversion prior to the time that
it is determined that such event will lead to such a conversion shall not prejudice the rights of
the Liquidity Provider under this Section 3.10. The Liquidity Provider agrees to investigate all
commercially reasonable alternatives for avoiding the need for such conversion, including, without
limitation, designating a different Lending Office, if such designation or other action would avoid
the need to convert such LIBOR Advances to Base Rate Advances; provided that the foregoing
shall not obligate the Liquidity Provider to take any action that would, in its reasonable
judgment, cause the Liquidity Provider to incur any material loss or cost, unless the Borrower or
American agrees to reimburse or indemnify the Liquidity Provider therefor. If no such designation
or other action is effected, or, if effected, fails to avoid the need

Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)

(2009-1 Aircraft EETC)

19

 

for conversion of the LIBOR Advances to Base Rate Advances, American may arrange for a
Replacement Liquidity Facility in accordance with Section 3.05(e) of the Intercreditor Agreement.

any damages suffered by the Borrower that were the result of (A) the Liquidity Provider’s willful
misconduct or gross negligence in determining whether documents presented hereunder comply with the
terms hereof or (B) any breach by the Liquidity Provider of any of the terms of this Agreement or
the Intercreditor Agreement, including, but not limited to, the Liquidity Provider’s failure to
make lawful payment hereunder after the delivery to it by the Borrower of a Notice of Borrowing
complying with the terms and conditions hereof.

          (b) Neither the Liquidity Provider nor any of its officers, employees or directors or
affiliates shall be liable or responsible in any respect for (i) any error, omission, interruption

     Section 7.07 Certain Costs and Expenses. The Borrower agrees promptly to pay, or
cause to be paid, (a) the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw

25

 

have the right to assign, pledge or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or
any interest herein, subject to the Liquidity Provider’s right to grant Participations pursuant to
Section 7.08(b).

          (b) The Liquidity Provider agrees that it will not grant any participation (including, without
limitation, a “risk participation”) (any such participation, a “Participation”) in or to all or a
portion of its rights and obligations hereunder or under the other Operative Agreements, unless all
of the following conditions are satisfied: (i) such Participation is to a Permitted Transferee,
(ii) such Participation is made in accordance with all applicable laws, including, without
limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended,
and any other applicable laws relating to the transfer of similar interests and (iii) such
Participation shall not be made under circumstances that require registration under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, or qualification of any indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939,
as amended. Notwithstanding any such Participation, the Liquidity Provider agrees that (1) the
Liquidity Provider’s obligations under the Operative Agreements shall remain unchanged, and such
participant shall have no rights or benefits as against American or the Borrower or under any
Operative Agreement, (2) the Liquidity Provider shall remain solely responsible to the other
parties to the Operative Agreements for the performance of such obligations, (3) the Liquidity
Provider shall remain the maker of any Advances, and the other parties to the Operative Agreements
shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Liquidity Provider in connection with the
Advances and the Liquidity Provider’s rights and obligations under the Operative Agreements, (4)
the Liquidity Provider shall be solely responsible for any withholding Taxes or any filing or
reporting requirements relating to such Participation and shall hold the Borrower and American and
their respective successors, permitted assigns, affiliates, agents and servants harmless against
the same and (5) neither American nor the Borrower shall be required to pay to the Liquidity
Provider any amount under Section 3.01 or Section 3.03 greater than it would have been required to
pay had there not been any grant of a Participation by the Liquidity Provider. The Liquidity
Provider may, in connection with any Participation or proposed Participation pursuant to this
Section 7.08(b), disclose to the participant or proposed participant any information relating to
the Operative Agreements or to the parties thereto furnished to the Liquidity Provider thereunder
or in connection therewith and permitted to be disclosed by the Liquidity Provider;
provided, however, that prior to any such disclosure, the participant or proposed
participant shall agree in writing for the express benefit of the Borrower and American to preserve
the confidentiality of any confidential information included therein (subject to customary
exceptions).

          (c) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 7.08, the Liquidity Provider may
assign and pledge all or any portion of the Advances owing to it to any Federal Reserve Bank or the
United States Treasury as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank;
provided that any payment in respect of such assigned Advances made by the Borrower to the
Liquidity Provider in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall satisfy the Borrower’s
obligations hereunder in respect of such assigned Advance to the extent of such payment. No such
assignment shall release the Liquidity Provider from its obligations hereunder.

invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

     Section 7.10 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT HAS BEEN DELIVERED IN THE STATE OF NEW

United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, for the purposes of any suit,
action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement, the subject matter hereof or any of the
transactions contemplated hereby brought by any party or parties hereto or thereto, or their
successors or permitted assigns and (ii) waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a
defense, or otherwise, in any such suit, action or proceeding, that the suit, action or proceeding
is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper
or that this Agreement or the subject matter hereof or any of the transactions contemplated hereby
may not be enforced in or by such courts.

          (b) THE BORROWER AND THE LIQUIDITY PROVIDER EACH HEREBY AGREE TO WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS
TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY
DEALINGS BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RELATIONSHIP THAT IS
BEING ESTABLISHED, including, without limitation, contract claims, tort claims, breach of duty
claims and all other common law and statutory claims. The Borrower and the Liquidity Provider each
warrant and represent that it has reviewed this waiver with its legal counsel, and that it
knowingly and voluntarily waives its jury trial rights following consultation with such legal
counsel. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, AND CANNOT BE
MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING, AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS,
RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT.

          (c) To the extent that the Liquidity Provider or any of its properties has or may hereafter
acquire any right of immunity, whether characterized as sovereign immunity or otherwise, and
whether under the United States Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 (or any successor
legislation) or otherwise, from any legal proceedings, whether in the United States or elsewhere,
to enforce or collect upon this Agreement, including, without limitation, immunity from suit or
service of process, immunity from jurisdiction or judgment of any court or tribunal or execution of
a judgment, or immunity of any of its property from attachment prior to any entry of judgment, or
