the obligations have been accelerated pursuant to the Term Note, each Loan
Party, upon the Lender's request in connection with efforts to enforce the
rights and remedies of the Lender under the Term Note and the documents securing
the Term Note, shall turn over copies of any such records requested by the
Lender to the Lender or its representatives.

                      (ii) All information obtained by Lender hereunder or

participating in matters related to the Term Note or who otherwise need to know
the Confidential Information (including, without limitation, accountants,
attorneys, or advisors) ("Representatives") and (b) not to use Confidential
Information for any purposes other than in connection with the Term Note. Lender
shall inform its Representatives of the existence and terms of this Agreement
and shall take all such steps as are used by Lender in protecting its own
confidential information to assure adherence to this Agreement by its
Representatives, who shall be considered agents of Lender for all purposes of
this Agreement. In the event that Lender is requested pursuant to, or required
by, applicable law or regulation or by legal process to disclose any
Confidential Information, Lender agrees that it will provide Parent with prompt
notice of such request(s) to enable Parent to seek an appropriate protective
order and/or waive compliance by it with the provisions of this Agreement.

any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate
counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be
an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the

$10,000,000                                                    February 14, 2001

         FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, AVIATION SALES DISTRIBUTION
SERVICES COMPANY, a Delaware corporation, AEROCELL STRUCTURES, INC., an Arkansas
corporation, AVS/M-2, INC., a Delaware corporation, WHITEHALL CORPORATION, a
Delaware corporation, TRIAD INTERNATIONAL MAINTENANCE CORPORATION, a Delaware
corporation, AVS/M-3, INC., an Arizona corporation, CARIBE AVIATION, INC., a
Florida corporation, AIRCRAFT INTERIOR DESIGN, INC., a Florida corporation,
AVIATION SALES LEASING COMPANY, a Delaware corporation, and TIMCO ENGINE CENTER,
INC., a Delaware corporation (each a "Borrower" and collectively, the
"Borrowers"), HEREBY JOINTLY AND SEVERALLY PROMISE TO PAY to the order of BANK
OF AMERICA, N.A., a national banking association (the "Lender"), the principal
amount of TEN MILLION DOLLARS on August 14, 2002 (the "Maturity Date").

         1. Interest. The Borrowers further, jointly and severally, promise to
pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the indebtedness evidenced hereby
from the date advanced until such principal amount is paid in full at a per
annum rate of interest equal to The Wall Street Journal LIBOR Rate plus two
percent (2%). "The Wall Street Journal LIBOR Rate" is the fluctuating rate of
interest equal to the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate as published in
the "Money Rates" section of The Wall Street Journal on the immediately
preceding Business Day (as hereinafter defined), as adjusted from time to time
in the Lender's sole discretion for then applicable reserve requirements,
deposit insurance assessment rates and other regulatory costs. Interest will
accrue on any non-Business Day at the rate in effect on the immediately
preceding Business Day. Accrued interest shall be payable, in arrears, on the
first day of each calendar month (for the immediately preceding calendar month)
commencing on the first such day following the date hereof and, if not
theretofore paid in full, on the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
effective immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as such term
is defined below), and for as long thereafter as such Event of Default shall be
continuing unwaived, the principal balance outstanding hereunder, shall bear
interest at eighteen percent (18%) per annum. Interest at the rate set forth
above will be calculated by the 365/360 day method (a daily amount of interest
is computed for a hypothetical year of 360 days; that amount is multiplied by
the actual number of days for which any principal is outstanding hereunder).
Notwithstanding any provision of this Note, the Lender does not intend to charge
and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any amount of interest or other
charges in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law. The Borrowers,
jointly and severally, agree that during the full term hereof, the maximum
lawful interest rate for this Note as determined under Texas law shall be the
indicated rate ceiling as specified in Article 5069-1.04 of Vernon's Annotated
Texas Statutes. Further, to the extent that any other lawful rate ceiling
exceeds the rate ceiling so determined then the higher rate ceiling shall apply.
Any payment in excess of such maximum shall be refunded to Borrower or credited
against principal, at the option of the Lender.

         2. Use of Proceeds. The Borrowers further, jointly and severally, agree
and covenant that proceeds of the loan advanced under this Note shall be used
(i) first, to make dividends and

<PAGE>

distributions to Aviation Sales Company to enable it to pay accrued interest due
under the Indenture (as hereinafter defined), and (ii) second, for working
capital and general business purposes.

         3. Payments. All payments of principal and interest in respect of this
Note shall be made to the Lender in lawful money of the United States of America
in same day funds on the date due at the Lender's office designated below. Funds
received by the Lender as aforesaid no later than 4:00 p.m. (Houston time) on
any given Business Day shall be credited against payment to be made that day and
funds received by the Lender after that time shall be deemed to have been paid
on the next succeeding Business Day. "Business Day" shall mean a day in the
applicable local time which is not a Saturday or Sunday or a legal holiday and
on which banks are not required or permitted by law or other governmental action
to close in Houston, Texas. All payments made on account of principal hereof and
interest thereon shall be recorded by the Lender on its books and records. The
Borrowers have elected to authorize the Lender to effect payment of sums due
under this Note by means of debiting the Borrowers' account number 3661094818 at
Bank of America, N.A.. The Lender will endeavor to advise the Borrower of the
amount of each debit at least two Business Days prior thereto by written or oral
notice (but the failure of the Borrower to receive any such notice shall not
negate the Lender's right to debit such account.) This authorization shall not
affect the obligation of the Borrowers to pay such sums when due, without
notice, if there are insufficient funds in such account to make such payment in
full on the due date thereof, or if the Lender fails to debit the account.

         4. Subordination Agreement; Indenture. Indebtedness evidenced by this
Note shall constitute "Senior Debt" of each Borrower as defined in that certain
Indenture dated as of February 17, 1998 by and among AVIATION SALES COMPANY,
certain subsidiaries of AVIATION SALES COMPANY, and SunTrust Bank, Central
Florida, National Association (the "Indenture"), equal in right of payment and
on parity with all other "Senior Debt" of each Borrower as defined in the
Indenture.

         5. Representations. Each of the Borrowers hereby represents and
warrants to the Lender that the execution, delivery and performance of this Note
by the Borrowers and the other agreements and documents executed and delivered
in connection therewith by the Borrowers and certain corporate affiliates of the
Borrowers (collectively, the "Affiliate Collateral Documents" do not and will
not (i) conflict with the "Organizational Documents" (as such term is defined in
that certain Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of May 31,
2000 among the Borrowers, the lenders and other financial institutions from time
to time a party thereto, and Citicorp USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("Citicorp"), as Agent for the lenders and issuing banks thereunder, as amended
(the "Credit Agreement")) or by-laws of any Borrower or any other affiliate of

the shareholders of any Borrower or Affiliate Guarantor.

Indemnitee, as determined by a final, nonappealable order of a court of
competent jurisdiction and (b) not to assert any claim against any of the
Indemnified Parties on any theory of liability for special, indirect,

law or public policy, each Borrower shall contribute the maximum portion which
it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law, to the payment and
satisfaction of all Indemnified Matters incurred by the Indemnitees. The Lender
agrees to notify the Borrowers of the institution or assertion of any

notify the Borrowers shall not release any Borrower from its obligations
hereunder, except to the extent of any material increase in the liabilities of

from such Indemnitees.

evidenced by this Note. Each of the Borrowers is accepting joint and several
liability hereunder in consideration of the financial accommodations to be
provided by the Lender hereunder, for the mutual benefit, directly and
indirectly, of each of the Borrowers and in consideration of the undertakings of
each of the Borrowers to accept joint and several liability for the obligations
of each of them. Each of the Borrowers jointly and severally hereby irrevocably
and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor,
joint and several liability with the other Borrowers with respect to the payment
and performance of all of the indebtedness evidenced hereby, it being the
intention of the parties hereto that all of such indebtedness shall be the joint
and several obligations of each of the Borrowers without preferences or
distinction among them. If and to the extent that any of the Borrowers shall
fail to make any payment with respect to any of such indebtedness as and when
due or to perform any of the agreements contained herein in accordance with the
terms thereof, then in each such event, the other Borrowers will make such
payment with respect to, or perform, such agreement.

         21. Further Waivers. The obligations of each Borrower under the
provisions hereof constitute full recourse obligations of such Borrower,
enforceable against it to the full extent of its properties and assets,
irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of this Note or any
other circumstances whatsoever. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein,
each Borrower hereby waives notice of acceptance of its joint and several
liability, notice of the advance of the principal amount of the loan made
hereunder, notice of occurrence of any Event of Default, or of any demand for
any payment under this Note, notice of any action at any time taken or omitted
by the Lender under or in respect of any of the obligations hereunder, any
requirement of diligence and, generally, all demands, notices and other
formalities of every kind in connection with this Note. Each Borrower hereby
assents to, and waives notice of, any extension or postponement of the time for
the payment of any of such obligations, the acceptance of any partial payment

or satisfaction of any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Note, any
and all other indulgences whatsoever by the Lender in respect of any of such
obligations, and the taking, addition, substitution or release, in whole or in
part, at any time or times, of any security for any of such obligations or the
addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, of any Borrower. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower assents to any other
action or delay in acting or failure to act on the part of the Lender,
including, without limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert any
right or to pursue any remedy or to comply fully with the applicable laws or
regulations thereunder which might, but for the provisions of this paragraph,
afford grounds for terminating, discharging or relieving such Borrower, in whole
or in part, from any of its obligations hereunder, it being the intention of
each Borrower that, so long as any of the obligations evidenced by this Note
remain unsatisfied, the obligations of such Borrower under this paragraph shall
not be discharged except by performance and then only to the extent of such
performance. The obligations of each Borrower under this paragraph shall not be
diminished or rendered unenforceable by any winding up, reorganization,
arrangement liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to
any Borrower or the Lender. The joint and several liability of the Borrowers
hereunder shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any
absorption, merger, amalgamation or any other change whatsoever in the name,
membership, constitution or

                                       9
<PAGE>

place of formation of any Borrower or the Lender. The provisions of this
paragraph are made for the benefit of the Lender and its successors and assigns,
and may be enforced by any such person from time to time against any of the
Borrowers as often as occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the
part of any such person first to marshal any of its claims or to exercise any of
its rights against any other person or to exhaust any remedies available to it
against any other person or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining
payment of any of the indebtedness evidenced hereto or to elect any other
remedy. The provisions of this paragraph shall remain in effect until all the
indebtedness evidenced hereby shall have been paid in full or otherwise fully
satisfied. If at any time, any payment, or any part thereof, made in respect of
any of such indebtedness, is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned
by the Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any of the
Borrowers, or otherwise, the provisions of this paragraph will forthwith be
reinstated in effect, as though such payment had not been made.

         Notwithstanding any provision to the Excess Funding Borrower (as
defined below), each other Borrower shall, on demand of such Excess Funding
Borrower (but subject to the next sentence hereof and to subsection (B) below),
pay to such Excess Funding Borrower an amount equal to such Borrower's Pro Rata
Share (as defined below and determined, for this purpose, without reference to
the properties, assets, liabilities and debts of such Excess Funding Borrower)
of such Excess Payment (as defined below). The payment obligation of any
Borrower to any Excess Funding Borrower under this paragraph shall be
subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the
indebtedness of such Borrower under the other provisions of this Note, and such
Excess Funding Borrower shall not exercise any right or remedy with respect to
such excess until payment and satisfaction in full of all of such obligations.
For purposes hereof, (i) "Excess Funding Borrower" shall mean, in respect of any
obligations arising under the other provisions of this Note (hereafter, the
"Joint Obligations"), a Borrower that has paid an amount in excess of its Pro
Rata Share of the Joint Obligations, (ii) "Excess Payment" shall mean, in
respect of any Joint Obligations, the amount paid by an Excess Funding Borrower
in excess of its Pro Rata Share of such Joint Obligations, and (iii) "Pro Rata
Share", for the purposes of this paragraph, shall mean, for any Borrower, the
ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (A) the amount by which the aggregate
present fair saleable value of all of its assets and properties exceeds the
amount of all debts and liabilities of such Borrower (including contingent,
subordinated, unmatured, and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the
obligations of such Borrower hereunder) to (B) the amount by which the aggregate
present fair saleable value of all assets and other properties of such Borrower
and all of the other Borrowers exceeds the amount of all of the debts and
liabilities (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured, matured and
unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of such Borrower and the
other Borrowers hereunder) of such Borrower and all of the other Borrowers, all
as of the date hereof.
