    Section 2.6  Calculation of Adjustments to Basic Rent, Stipulated Loss Value
and Termination Value; Confirmation and Verification.

         (a) Calculation of Adjustments. In the event that (A) the Closing Date
is other than December 28, 2001, (B) the actual interest rate on the Equipment
Note is different from the Debt Rate or the amortization of the Equipment Note
is different from that set forth on Schedule 5, (C) a refinancing contemplated
by Section 10.2 occurs, (D) the actual aggregate Equipment Cost or composition
of the Units is different from that set forth on Schedule 1, (E) the actual
aggregate amount of Transaction Costs paid pursuant to Section 2.5(a) is other
than an amount equal to 1.94% of the Total Equipment Cost, (F) there is any
change in, or cost relating to a revision in, the structure of the transaction
contemplated hereby as required by the Rating Agency, (G) there is any change in
the Code or in the regulations promulgated thereunder or other official
administrative pronouncement, which change is enacted or effective after the
execution of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (provided that the
Owner Participant or the Lessee, as the case may be, shall have provided notice
to the other prior to the Closing Date), and which change alters or eliminates
any tax assumption used in calculating Basic Rent, Stipulated Loss Values,
Stipulated Loss Amounts, Termination Values, Termination Amounts, Early Purchase
Price, or (H) there is any change in, or cost relating to revision in, the
structure of the transaction contemplated hereby as a result of any change in
generally accepted accounting principles affecting the accounting treatment of
the transaction by the Owner Participant then, in each such case, the Owner
Participant shall recalculate the payments or amounts, as the case may be, of
Basic Rent, the allocation of Basic Rent, Stipulated Loss Values, Stipulated
Loss Amounts, Termination Values, Termination Amounts, Early Purchase Price,
Scheduled Amortization and Scheduled Amortization Amount (and the corresponding
Rated Amortization and Rated Amortization Amount), (i) to preserve the Net
Economic Return that the Owner Participant would have realized had such event
not occurred, and (ii) to minimize to the greatest extent possible, consistent
with the foregoing clause (i), the present value (discounted monthly at an
interest rate per annum equal to the Debt Rate) of the sum of the payments of
Basic Rent to the Early Purchase Date and the Early Purchase Price; provided,
however, that in no event shall the Early Purchase Price be less than the
expected fair market value of the Equipment on

                                          Participation Agreement (TRLI 2001-1C)

                                       11
<PAGE>

the Early Purchase Date and the Basic Term Expiration Date, respectively, as
determined by the Appraisal. Any such recalculation performed due to the
occurrence of any one or more of the events described in clause (A), (B), (D),
(E), (F), (G) or (H) above shall be made prior to the Closing Date. In
performing any such recalculation and in determining the Owner Participant's Net
Economic Return, the Owner Participant shall utilize the same methods and
assumptions originally used in making the computations of Basic Rent, Stipulated
Loss Values, Stipulated Loss Amounts, Termination Values, Termination Amounts
and Early Purchase Price initially set forth in Schedules 3-A, 3-B, 4-A, 4-B and
6 (other than those assumptions changed as a result of any of the events
described in clauses (A) through (H) of the preceding sentence necessitating
such recalculation; it being agreed that such recalculation shall reflect solely
any changes of assumptions or facts resulting directly from the event or events
necessitating such recalculation). Such adjustments shall comply (to the extent
the original structure complied) with Section 467 of the Code and the
requirements of Sections 4.02(5), 4.07(1) and (2) of Revenue Procedure 2001-28
calculated, except in the case of a refinancing pursuant to Section 10.2,
without taking into account any change after the Closing Date in or to Section
467 of the Code (and any regulations thereunder).

         (b) Confirmation and Verification. Upon completion of any recalculation
described in Section 2.6(a), a duly authorized officer of the Owner Participant
shall provide a certificate to the Lessee either (x) stating that the amounts of
Basic Rent, Stipulated Loss Values, Stipulated Loss Amounts, Termination Values,
Termination Amounts and Early Purchase Price as are then set forth in Schedules
3-A, 3-B, 4-A, 4-B and 6 do not require change, or (y) setting forth such
adjustments to the amounts of Basic Rent, Stipulated Loss Values, Stipulated
Loss Amounts, Termination Values, Termination Amounts or Early Purchase Price as
have been calculated by the Owner Participant in accordance with Section 2.6(a).
Such certificate shall describe in reasonable detail the basis for any such
adjustments, and any such adjustment and corresponding adjustments to the
Stipulated Loss Values, Termination Values and Early Purchase Price will be
computed on a basis consistent with that used by the Owner Participant in the
original calculation of Basic Rent. Any such adjustment shall be deemed approved
upon notice of such approval by the Lessee to the Owner Participant or on the
thirty-first (31st) day following delivery of such certificate by the Owner
Participant to the Lessee unless the Lessee, prior to such day, requests
verification pursuant to the following sentence, and shall become effective, in
the case of adjustments made pursuant to clause (A), (B), (D), (E), (F), (G) or
(H) of the first sentence of Section 2.6(a), as of the earlier of (i) the first
Rent Payment Date and (ii) the date the Lessee approves or has been deemed to
have approved such adjustment, and, in the case of an adjustment made pursuant
to clause (C) of the first sentence of Section 2.6(a), as of the date of the
refinancing. If the Lessee shall so request, the recalculation of any such
adjustments described in this Section 2.6 shall be verified by a nationally
recognized firm of independent

                                       12
<PAGE>
accountants selected by the Owner Participant and reasonably acceptable to the
Lessee, and any such recalculation of such adjustment as so verified shall be
binding on the Lessee and the Owner Participant. Such accounting firm shall be
requested to make its determination within 30 days. The Owner Participant shall
provide to a representative of such accounting firm, on a confidential basis,
such information as it may reasonably require, including the original
assumptions used by the Owner Participant and the methods used by the Owner
Participant in the original calculation of, and any recalculation of, Basic
Rent, Stipulated Loss Values, Stipulated Loss Amounts, Termination Values,
Termination Amounts, Early Purchase Price, Scheduled Amortization and Scheduled
Amortization Amount (and the corresponding Rated Amortization and Rated
Amortization Amount) and such other information as is necessary to determine
whether the computation is accurate and in conformity with the provisions of
this Agreement, provided that in no event shall the Owner Participant have any
obligation to provide the Lessee with any such information; and provided,
further, that the Owner Participant shall have no obligation to disclose to the
Lessee, such accounting firm or any other Person, or to permit the Lessee, such
accounting firm or any other Person, to examine any federal, state or local
income tax returns of the Owner Participant, or books or accounting records
related thereto, for any taxable year. Subject to the immediately following
sentence, the costs of such verification shall be borne by the Lessee. If such
accounting firm's verification shall result in a decrease in the net present
value (expressed as a percentage of Total Equipment Cost, discounted monthly at
a rate per annum equal to the Debt Rate) of the sum of the Basic Rent to the
Early Purchase Date and the Early Purchase Price, calculated as of the Closing
Date, as compared to the net present value of the sum of the Basic Rent to the
Early Purchase Date and the Early Purchase Price, proposed by the Owner
Participant, by more than the greater of (i) ten basis points or (ii) 5% of the
proposed adjustment, then the Owner Participant agrees to reimburse the Lessee
for any amounts paid for such verification. Any revised adjustment resulting
from such verification shall become effective on the next Rent Payment Date
after such verification has been concluded (except that, in the case of an
adjustment pursuant to clause (C) of the first sentence of Section 2.6(a), such
adjustment shall be effective as of the date of the refinancing), and shall take
into account any underpayment or overpayment, together with interest thereon at
the Debt Rate, resulting from an earlier effective ness of the original
calculation.

         (c) Compliance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any adjustment made to
the payments of Basic Rent, Stipulated Loss Amounts, Termination Amounts or
Early Purchase Price, pursuant to the foregoing, shall comply with the following
requirements: (i) each installment of Basic Rent, as so adjusted, under any
circumstances and in any event, will be in an amount at least sufficient for the
Owner Trustee to pay in full as of the due date of such installment any payment
of principal of and interest on the Equipment Note required to be paid on the
due date of such installment of Basic Rent in accordance with the Scheduled
Amortization, and (ii)

<PAGE>
Stipulated Loss Amount, Termination Amount and Early Purchase Price, as so
adjusted, under any circumstances and in any event, will be an amount which,
together with any other amounts required to be paid by the Lessee under the
Lease in connection with an Event of Loss or a termination of the Lease, as the
case may be, will be at least sufficient to pay in full, as of the date of
payment thereof, the aggregate unpaid principal of and all unpaid interest on
the Equipment Note in accordance with the Scheduled Amortization accrued to the
date on which Stipulated Loss Amount, Termination Amount or Early Purchase
Price, as the case may be, is paid in accordance with the terms of the Lease.

         (d) Invoices. All invoices in respect of Transaction Costs to the
extent not delivered on the Closing Date shall be directed to the Owner
Participant at the address set forth in Section 10.4, with a copy to the Lessee.

     Section 2.7  Postponement of Closing Date.

         (a) If for any reason whatsoever the Closing is not consummated on the
Closing Date provided for pursuant to Section 2.3 (the "Scheduled Closing
Date"), the Closing shall be deemed postponed to the next Business Day or to
such other Business Day on or prior to December 31, 2001 as the Lessee shall
specify by facsimile or telephonic (confirmed in writing) notice to the Owner
Participant, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Pass Through Trustee
and the Initial Purchasers, in which case the Participants will keep their funds
available, provided that the notice of postponement shall be received by each
party no later than 4:30 p.m.,Chicago time, on the originally scheduled Closing
Date, and the term "Closing Date" as used in this Agreement shall mean the
postponed "Closing Date."

         (b) If the closing fails to occur on the Scheduled Closing Date, the
Indenture Trustee shall promptly return to each Participant that makes funds
avail able to it in accordance with this Section 2 such funds, together with
interest or income earned thereon.

         (c) If the Closing fails to occur on the Scheduled Closing Date and
funds are not returned to each Participant that made funds available by the
Indenture Trustee as provided by Section 2.7(b) above, the Indenture Trustee
shall, if so instructed by the Lessee in the facsimile or telephonic (confirmed
in writing) notice from the Lessee (which notice shall specify the Specified
Investments to be purchased), use reasonable best efforts to invest, at the risk
of the Lessee (except as provided below with respect to the Indenture Trustee's
gross negligence or willful misconduct), the funds received by the Indenture
Trustee from the Participants in Specified Investments in accordance with the
Lessee's instructions. Any such Specified Investments purchased by the Indenture

made, not misleading. The assumptions and related financial information relating
to the proposed business and operations of the Lessee and the Partnership Fleet
which are contained in the information on Schedule 3.2(m) have been prepared in
good faith based upon information that the Lessee deems fair and reasonable, and
there are no statements or conclusions therein which are based on or include
information known to the Lessee to be misleading in any material respect or

made to the Owner Participant and/or the Loan Participant, and with respect to

Date). Certain information contained in the information on Schedule 3.2(m) (e.g.
statistical information relating to renewal and remarketing of railcars,
potential increases in absolute or nominal railcar lease rates, anticipated
utilization, and maintenance costs) is based on the historical experience of
TILC. Subject to the foregoing, there can be no assurance that past experience
will be indicative of future performance with respect to these or other
operating and marketing factors set forth in the information on Schedule 3.2(m);

by the Lessee or any Partner for a purpose which violates, or would be
inconsistent with, Section 7 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
or Regulations T, U and X of the Federal Reserve System. Terms for which
meanings are provided in Regulations T, U and X of the Federal Reserve System or
any regulations substituted therefor, as from time to time in effect, are used
in this Section 3.2(n) with such meanings;

         (o) the Lessee is not in violation of any term of any of its
organizational documents or any other agreement or instrument to which it is a
party or by which it may be bound. The Lessee is in compliance with all laws,
ordinances, governmental rules and regulations to which it is subject and the
Lessee has obtained all required licenses, permits, franchises and other
governmental authorizations material to the conduct of its business;

         (p) on the Closing Date, all sales, use or transfer taxes, if any, due
and payable upon the purchase of the Equipment described on Schedule 1 hereto by
the Lessee from TILC and by the Owner Trustee from the Lessee and upon the lease

full limited partnership power and authority to carry on its business as now
conducted;

         (b) the Owner Participant has the requisite limited partnership power

Owner Participant or any of its properties, or contravene the provisions of, or
constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any Lien (other than

manner which would violate the Securities Act, but without prejudice, however,
to the right of the Owner Participant at all times to sell or otherwise dispose
of all or any part of such Beneficial Interest in compliance with the Securities
Act and any state securities or "blue sky" laws; provided, however, that
subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, the disposition of the Beneficial
Interest shall at all times be within the Owner Participant's control. The Owner
Participant acknowledges that its Beneficial Interest has not been registered
under the Securities Act, and that neither the Owner Participant, the Owner
Trustee, Trust Company, the Lessee, TRMI nor TILC contemplates filing, or is
legally required to file, any such registration statement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Owner Participant makes no representation that the Beneficial
Interest is a "security" within the meaning of such term under the Securities
Act;

         (h) with respect to the source of the amount to be invested by the
Owner Participant pursuant to Section 2.2, no part of such amount constitutes
assets of any employee benefit plan subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975

         (i) no broker's or finder's or placement fee or commission will be
payable with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Operative
Agreements as a result of any action by the Owner Participant, and the Owner
Participant agrees that it will hold TILC, TRMI, the Lessee, the Indenture
Trustee, the Loan Participant and the Owner Trustee harmless from any claim,
demand or liability for broker's or finder's or placement fees or commission
alleged to have been incurred as a result of any action by the Owner Participant

Participants, as of the date hereof:

         (a) TILC is a corporation duly organized, validly existing, and in good
standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, is duly licensed or qualified

properties, or (ii) the provisions of, or constitute a default by TILC under,
its certificate of incorporation or bylaws or (iii) any indenture, mortgage,
contract or other agreement or instrument to which TILC is a party or by which

TILC of the TILC Agreements, or is required to be obtained in order for TILC to
perform its obligations thereunder in accordance with the terms thereof, other
than (i) as may be required under existing laws, ordinances, governmental rules
and regulations to be obtained, given, accomplished or renewed at any time after
the Closing Date in connection with the performance of its obligations under the
TILC Agreements and which are routine in nature and are not normally applied for
prior to the time they are required, and which TILC has no reason to believe
will not be timely obtained or (ii) as may be required under the Operative
Agreements in consequence of any transfer of ownership of the Equipment
occurring after the Closing Date;

Agreement with respect to any Unit delivered on the Closing Date or any Pledged
Unit;

beneficial title to the Pledged Units, free and clear of all Liens (other than

not void or voidable under any applicable law; and (vi) all of the Pledged Units
delivered pursuant to the Pledged Equipment Transfer and Assignment Agreements
other than an immaterial amount were subject to lease by the Pledged Equipment
Lessees under the Existing Pledged Equipment Leases on rental and other terms

be performed by TILC under the Management Agreement to the equipment in the TILC
Fleet;

         (k) (i) in selecting the Units to be sold on the Closing Date to the
Lessee pursuant to the TILC Bill of Sale, TILC has not discriminated against the
Lessee in a negative fashion when such Units are compared with the other
equipment in the TILC Fleet, and (ii) in selecting the Pledged Units sold to the
Lessee pursuant to the TILC Pledged Equipment Bills of Sale, TILC did not

         (l) the written information provided by TILC or on behalf of TILC to

Schedule 3.2(m), as of the date such information was provided to the Owner
Participant and/or the Loan Participant, and with respect to each document set
forth in Part II of Schedule 3.2(m), as of the Closing Date) does not contain
any untrue statement of a material fact and does not omit a material fact
necessary to make the statements contained therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The assumptions and
related financial information relating to the proposed business and operations
of TILC and the Partnership Fleet which are contained in the information on
Schedule 3.2(m) have been prepared in good faith based upon information that
TILC deems fair and reasonable, and there are no statements or conclusions
therein which are based on or include information known to TILC to be misleading
in any material respect or which fail to take into account material information
known to TILC regarding the matters stated therein (with respect to the
information set forth in Part I of Schedule 3.2(m), as of the date such
statements or conclusions were made to the Owner Participant and/or the Loan
Participant, and with respect to the information set forth in Part II of
Schedule 3.2(m), as of the Closing Date). Certain information contained in the
information on Schedule 3.2(m) (e.g. statistical information relating to renewal
and remarketing of railcars, potential increases in absolute or nominal railcar
lease rates, anticipated utilization, and maintenance costs) is based on the
historical experience of TILC. Subject to the foregoing, there can be no
assurance that past experience will be indicative of future performance with
respect to these or other operating and marketing factors set forth in the
information on Schedule 3.2(m);

         (m) the representations and warranties of the Lessee contained in
Section 3.2(h), clause (iii) of Section 3.2(l), the first sentence of Section
3.2(p) and in Section 3.2(r) (to the extent a copy of any such Appraisal or a

representation or warranty is given with respect to any forecasts or projections
included therein or omitted therefrom;

          (n)  the Owner Participant shall deliver to the Lessee an Officer's
Certificate certifying as to compliance with the transfer requirements contained
herein; provided that no such Officer's Certificate is required in case of a
transfer of the Beneficial Interest to the Lessee (or Lessee's designee)
pursuant to Section 6.9.

     Upon any such transfer (i) except as the context otherwise requires, such
Transferee shall be deemed the "Owner Participant" for all purposes, and shall
enjoy the rights and privileges and perform the obligations of the Owner
Participant to the extent of the interest transferred hereunder and under each
other Operative Agreement to which the Owner Participant is a party, and,
except as the context otherwise requires, each reference in this Agreement and
each other Operative Agreement to the "Owner Participant" shall thereafter be

6.1(i) hereof and except in the case of a transfer to a Transferee described in
the proviso to Section 6.1(a)(iii) hereof, shall be released from all

such obligations are expressly assumed by a Transferee; and provided, further,
that in no event shall any such transfer or assignment waive or release the
transferor from any liability on account of any breach existing prior to such
transfer of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or obligations set
forth herein or in any of the other Operative Agreements or for any fraudulent
or willful misconduct. Subject to Section 6.1(l), the provisions of this Section
6.1 shall not be construed to restrict the Owner Participant from consolidating
with or merging into any other corporation or restricting another corporation
from merging into or consolidating with the Owner Participant. Notwithstanding
any transfer, the transferor Owner Participant shall be entitled to all benefits
accrued and all rights vested prior to such transfer, including, without
limitation, rights to indemnification under any of the Operative Agreements. No
transfer hereunder shall, by virtue of the Transferee engaging in a business or
activity not generally conducted by other institutional or corporate investors
in lease transactions, increase the Lessee's indemnification obligations under
Section 7.1 or 7.2. The Owner Participant hereby acknowledges and agrees (and
each Transferee by virtue of any transfer shall be deemed to have acknowledged
and agreed) to the terms of the Collateral Agency Agreement.

     The Lessee agrees to provide notice to the Rating Agency of any proposed
transfer by an Owner Participant no later than 5 days after Lessee's receipt of
notice of such proposed transfer from an Owner Participant.

directly or indirectly create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lessor's
Lien attributable to the Owner Participant on or against all or any portion of
the Indenture Estate or the Equipment, and the Owner Participant agrees that it
shall, at its own cost and expense, take such action as may be necessary to duly
discharge and satisfy in full any such Lessor's Lien; provided that the Owner
Participant may contest any such Lessor's Lien in good faith by appropriate
proceedings so long as such proceedings do not involve any material danger of
the sale, forfeiture or loss of the Equipment or any interest therein or
interference with the use, operation, or possession of the Equipment or any
portion thereof by the Lessee under the Lease or the rights of the Indenture
Trustee under the Indenture.

     Section 6.3 Lessor's Liens Attributable to Trust Company. Trust Company
hereby unconditionally agrees with and for the benefit of each of the other
parties to this Agreement that it shall not directly or indirectly create,

Company agrees that it shall, at its own cost and expense, take such action as
may be necessary to duly discharge and satisfy in full any such Lessor's Lien;
provided that the Trust Company may contest any such Lessor's Lien in good faith

agrees with each of the Lessee, the Owner Trustee, the Owner Participant and the
Loan Participant that it shall not cause or permit to exist any Lien on or
against all or any portion of the Equipment, the Pledged Equipment, the Trust
Estate or the Indenture Estate arising as a result of (i) claims against the
Indenture Trustee in its individual capacity not related to its interest in the
Equipment, the Pledged Equipment and the Trust Estate, or to the administration
of the Indenture Estate pursuant to the Indenture, (ii) acts of the Indenture
Trustee in its individual capacity not contemplated by, or failure of the
Indenture Trustee to take any action it is expressly required to perform by, any
of the Operative Agreements, (iii) claims against the Indenture Trustee
attributable to the actions of the Indenture Trustee in its individual capacity
relating to Taxes or expenses that are not indemnified against by the Lessee

respect to which the Indenture Trustee will, at its own cost and expense (and
without any right of reimbursement from any other party hereto), promptly take
such action as may be necessary duly to discharge any such Lien.

          (b)  The Loan Participant covenants and agrees with each of the

and the Trust Estate, (ii) acts of the Loan Participant not contemplated by, or
failure of the Loan Participant to take any action it is expressly required to
perform by, any of the Operative Agreements, (iii) claims against the Loan
Participant relating to Taxes or expenses that are not indemnified against by
the Lessee pursuant to Section 7, or (iv) claims against the Loan Participant
arising out of the transfer by the Loan Participant of all or any portion of its
interest in the Equipment, the Pledged Equipment, the Indenture Estate or the
Operative Agreements, other than a transfer permitted by the Operative
Agreements and with respect to which the Loan Participant will, at its own cost
and expense (and without any right of reimbursement from the Lessee), promptly
take such action as may be necessary duly to discharge any such Lien.

     Section 6.5 Covenants of Owner Trustee, Owner Participant and Indenture
Trustee. Each of the Owner Participant and Trust Company, in its individual and
trust capacities, hereby agrees, as to its own actions only and severally and
not jointly, with (a) the Loan Participant and the Indenture Trustee (so long as
the Equipment Notes remain outstanding), not to amend, supplement, or otherwise
modify any provision of the Trust Agreement in such a manner as to adversely
affect the rights of the Loan Participant or the Indenture Trustee without the
prior written consent of such party and (b) with the Lessee, not to terminate or
revoke the Trust Agreement or the trust created by the Trust Agreement prior to
the payment in full and discharge of the Equipment Notes and all other

use its discretion (including, but not limited to, the giving or withholding of
consent or approval and the exercise of any rights or remedies under such
Operative Agreement), and any liability therefor, shall, in addition to any
other limitations provided herein or in any of the other Operative Agreements,
be limited by the provisions of the Indenture.

     Section 6.6 Amendments to Operative Agreements That Are Not Lessee
Agreements. Unless a Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Participants shall
not terminate the Operative Agreements to which the Lessee is not or will not be
a party, or amend, supplement, waive or modify in any manner such Operative
Agreements to which the Lessee is not or will not be a party, (i) except in
accordance with such Operative Agreements in effect on the date hereof (as
amended, modified or supplemented from time to time in accordance with the
terms hereof and of such Operative Agreements), or (ii) adverse to the Lessee or
to any of its rights or interests under any of the Operative Agreements, except
with the prior written consent of the Lessee. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, each of the Owner Participant and the Owner Trustee, the Pass
Through Trustee and the Indenture Trustee (as applicable) agrees that, in any

     Section 6.9 Lessee's Purchase in Certain Circumstances.

          (a)  If (A) the Owner Participant or any Affiliate thereof is or
acquires, is acquired by, merges or otherwise consolidates with any company or
Affiliate thereof who would not be an eligible "Transferee" by reason of Section
6.1(b) (and, in the case of an Affiliate, such entity continues to be an
Affiliate of the Owner Participant after such acquisition, merger or
consolidation), or (B) the Lessee shall have requested a waiver pursuant to
Section 12.3(c) of the Lease and the Lessor and the Owner Participant shall have
refused to grant such waiver or shall have granted such waiver but shall have
refused to further waive the requirement that amounts be deposited in the
Special Insurance Reserves Account pursuant to the Collateral Agency Agreement
in connection with the granting of the initial waiver, or (C) the Lessee shall

               (i)  keep the Lease and the Equipment Notes in place and require
that the Owner Participant, and the Owner Participant agrees to, transfer its
Beneficial Interest in accordance with the terms of Section 6.1 (other than
provisions of Sections 6.1(a), (b), (i), (l) and (n)) to the Lessee or such
other transferee as the Lessee may designate (such transfer to occur on a
Determination Date which is designated by the Lessee by written notice to the
Owner Participant not less than 60 days prior to such Determination Date) at a
purchase price (the "Beneficial Interest Purchase Price") equal to (1) the
Equity Portion of Termination Amount as of the date of such transfer, plus (2)
in the case of clause (B) above, the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Sales
Value of the Equipment calculated as of such date over the Termination Value as
of such date, plus (3) the Equity Portion of Basic Rent accrued and unpaid
therefor as of the date of such transfer (exclusive of any Basic Rent payable on
such date), plus (4) without duplication or limitation of any amount under
clauses (1) to (3) above, the sum of the Accumulated Equity Deficiency Amount
and Late Payment Interest related thereto, plus (5) without duplication or
limitation of any amount under clauses (1) to (4) above, that portion of
Supplemental Rent due and unpaid on such date that is payable to the Owner
Participant; provided, however, that, without regard to such Owner Participant's
obligations under the Operative Agreements relating to the period prior to such
transfer, any transfer of the Beneficial Interest pursuant to this Section 6.9
shall be without additional representations or warranties of or other
liabilities or obligations on such Owner Participant other than those expressly
set forth in the Owner Participant Agreements; provided, further, that in case
such Owner Participant holds less than 100% of the Beneficial Interest (after
excluding any Beneficial Interests held by the Lessee, TILC or any Affiliate of
either thereof), the purchase price for such Owner Participant's Beneficial
Interest shall be equal to (x) (i) the sum of the amounts calculated under
clauses (1), (2), (3) and (4) above multiplied by (ii) a fraction equal to the
portion such Owner Participant's Beneficial Interest bears to 100% of the
Beneficial Interests, plus (y) without duplication or limitation of any amount
under clause (x) above, that portion of Supplemental Rent due and unpaid on such
date that is payable to such Owner Participant; or

               (ii) on a Determination Date which is designated by the Lessee by
written notice to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee not less than 60
days prior to such Determination Date, purchase the Equipment for a purchase
price equal to (I) the Termination Amount calculated as of such Determination
Date, plus (II) in the case of clause (B) of the lead paragraph of this Section
6.9(a), the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Sales Value of the Equipment
calculated as of such date over the Termination Value as of such Determination
Date, plus (III) without duplication or limitation, all other amounts due and
owing by the Lessee under the Operative Agreements with respect to the
Equipment, including, without limitation, all accrued and unpaid Basic Rent

<PAGE>

Equipment Notes pursuant to Section 2.10(c) of the Indenture with respect to the
Equipment and Late Payment Premium, if any, due and owing under the Operative
Agreements with respect to the Equipment so that, after receipt and application
of all such payments the Owner Participant shall be entitled under the terms of
the Collateral Agency Agreement to receive, and does receive, in respect of all
such Units, the sum of the Accumulated Equity Deficiency Amount (without
duplication of any amount provided under clauses (I) - (III) above) and Late
Payment Interest related thereto and any other amounts of Supplemental Rent due
and unpaid on such Determination Date that are payable to the Owner Participant.

          (b)  If the Lessee elects to exercise the option to purchase the
Equipment (as opposed to such Owner Participant's Beneficial Interest) as
provided in Section 6.9(a), the Lessee shall, as the purchase price therefor pay
the purchase price, as specified in Section 6.9(a)(ii), with respect to the
Equipment, together with all other amounts due and owing by the Lessee under the
Operative Agreements.

          (c)  In connection with any purchase of the Equipment under this
Section 6.9, the Lessee will make the payments required by Section 6.9(a)(ii) in
immediately available funds against delivery of a bill of sale transferring and
assigning to the Lessee all right, title and interest of the Lessor in and to
the Equipment on an "as-is" "where-is" basis and containing a warranty with
respect to the absence of any Lessor's Lien. In such event, the costs of
preparing the bill of sale or other transfer documents and all other
documentation relating to such purchase and the costs of any necessary filings
related thereto will be borne by the Lessee.

          If the Lessee shall fail to fulfill its obligations under Sections
6.9(b) and (c), all of the Lessee's obligations under the Lease and the
Operative Agreements, including, without limitation, the Lessee's obligation to
pay installments of Rent, with respect to the Equipment shall continue.

     Section 6.10 Owner Participant as Affiliate of Lessee. So long as there are
any Notes outstanding, if at any time the original or any successor Owner
Participant shall be an Affiliate of the Lessee, the Manager or the
Administrator such Owner Participant and the Lessee agree that, notwithstanding
Section 9.5 of the Indenture, they will not vote its Beneficial Interest in any
respect if there is another Owner Participant not affiliated with the Lessee,
the Manager or the Administrator and, if there is no such Owner Participant,
they will not vote its Beneficial Interest to modify, amend or supplement any
provision of the Lease, this Agreement or any other Operative Agreement or give
or withhold, or permit the Owner Trustee to give or withhold, any consent,
waiver, authorization or approval thereunder unless such action shall have been
consented to by the Pass Through Trustee; provided that the restrictions of this
Section 6.10 shall not apply with respect to any such modification,

and TILC covenants that it will maintain or cause to be maintained and retain
sufficient factual records (to the extent such records are maintained by the
Lessee, TRMI and TILC respectively, any sublessee, or any trustee for or
Affiliate of any thereof, in the ordinary course of their respective businesses)
to enable the Owner Participant to prepare required United States federal, state
and local tax returns. Upon request of the Owner Participant, the Lessee, TRMI
and TILC, respectively, shall deliver such records to the Owner Participant at
the expense of the Owner Participant. In addition, as soon as practicable, the
Lessee, TRMI and TILC, respectively, shall provide or cause to be provided (at
the expense of the Lessee) to the Owner Participant such information (in form
and substance reasonable satisfactory to the Owner Participant) as the Owner
Participant may reasonably request from and as shall be reasonably available to
the Lessee, TRMI and TILC, respectively, to enable the Owner Participant to
fulfill its tax return filing obligations, to respond to requests for
information, to verify information in connection with any income tax audit and
to participate effectively in any tax contest. Such information may include,
without limitation, information as to the location of and use of the Equipment
from time to time (to the extent such information is available on the basis of
the records regularly maintained by the Lessee, TRMI and TILC, respectively, any
sublessee, or any trustee for or Affiliate of any thereof, in the ordinary
course of their respective businesses).

     Section 6.12 Replacement of Manager.

          (a)  Manager Replacement Event. So long as any Equipment Notes remain
outstanding, if a Manager Replacement Event has occurred and is continuing, the
Pass Through Trustee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to require
the Lessee to replace the Manager as provided in this Section 6.12 but only if
the Other Pass Through Trustee, simultaneously therewith exercises its right
under Section 6.12 of the respective Other Participation Agreements.

          (b)  Replacement Manager. The Pass Through Trustee and the Other Pass
Through Trustee shall send a written notice of their decision to replace the

Lessee, the Manager, the Rating Agency, each Owner Participant, each Other Owner
Participant, the Owner Trustee, the Other Owner Trustees, the Indenture Trustee
and the Other Indenture Trustees. If each Owner Participant and each Other Owner
Participant agree with such decision of the Pass Through Trustee and the Other
Pass Through Trustee to replace the Manager, the Lessee shall, within 10
Business Days

<PAGE>
after it received confirmation of such agreement by each Owner Participant and
each Other Owner Participant, provide a written notice (a "Lessee Proposed
Replacement Manager Notice") proposing one or more replacement Managers (each, a
"Replacement Manager") to the Indenture Trustee, the Other Indenture Trustees,
the Rating Agency, each Owner Participant, the Other Owner Participants, the
Owner Trustee, the Other Owner Trustees, the Pass Through Trustee and the Other
Pass Through Trustee; provided, that each proposed Replacement Manager must

be reason ably required to confirm that the Replacement Managers satisfy the
requirements of Section 8.4(b) of the Management Agreement imposed on a
Successor Manager and other information that the Pass Through Trustee, the Other
Pass Through Trustee, any Owner Participant or any Other Owner Participant may
reasonably request. Within 30 calendar days after the delivery of the Lessee
Proposed Replacement Manager Notice, the Pass Through Trustee and the Other Pass
Through Trustee, acting jointly, and each Owner Participant and each Other Owner
Participant, acting jointly, shall notify the Lessee in writing (a "Response
Notice") whether they accept any of the proposed Replacement Managers with
indication of which Replacement Managers are acceptable or they do not accept
any of the proposed Replacement Managers; provided, however, that the Pass
Through Trustee, the Other Pass Through Trustee, any Owner Participant and any
Other Owner Participant may refuse to accept any proposed Replacement Manager
(i) in their sole discretion, if such proposed Replacement Manager shall have a
rating of long-term Dollar-denominated senior unsecured debt obligations below
BBB- by S&P or Baa3 by Moody's, or (ii) in their reasonable discretion, if the
proposed Replacement Manager shall have a rating of long-term
Dollar-denominated senior unsecured debt obligations equal to or above BBB- by
S&P and Baa3 by Moody's. If the Pass Through Trustee, the Other Pass Through
Trustee, each Owner Participant and each Other Owner Participant (x) accept a
proposed Replacement Manager or (y) any of them fails to deliver a Response
Notice to the Lessee within the required period, the Lessee shall within 60
calendar days (after the delivery of the Response Notice or the expiration of
the required period) replace the Manager with the Replacement Manager; provided,
however, that in the event described under clause (x) immediately above, such
Replacement Manager shall be the Replacement Manager accepted by the Pass
Through Trustee, the Other Pass Through Trustee, each Owner Participant and
each Other Owner Participant in the Response Notice, and in the event described
under clause (y) immediately above, such Replacement Manager may be any of the
Replacement Managers from the Replacement Managers proposed by Lessee in the
Lessee Proposed Replacement Manager Notice. Any Replacement Manager shall
execute and deliver to the Lessee and to the replaced Manager an instrument
accepting such appointment, including customary confidentiality provisions in
favor of the replaced Manager and the Lessee, and

                                          Participation Agreement (TRLI 2001-1C)

thereupon such Replacement Manager, without further act, shall become vested
with all the rights, powers, duties and trusts of the replaced Manager under the
Management Agreement on the same terms and conditions as the replaced Manager
(or such other commercially reasonable terms and conditions as the Replacement
Manager may reasonably require and which are reasonably acceptable to the Pass
Through Trustee, the Other Pass Through Trustee, each Owner Participant and each
Other Owner Participant) with like effect as if originally named the Manager
therein except that in any event any Replacement Manager shall not be a
"Guaranteed Party" for purposes of the Trinity Guaranty or the Other Trinity
Guaranty.

          (c)  Alternative Replacement Manager. If the Pass Through Trustee, the
Other Pass Through Trustee, each Owner Participant and each Other Owner
Participant deliver a Response Notice to the Lessee within the period required
in Section 6.12(b) refusing to accept all proposed Replacement Managers in
accordance with Section 6.12(b), the Pass Through Trustee and the Other Pass
Through Trustee, acting jointly, and each Owner Participant and each Other Owner
Participant, acting jointly, shall also propose in such Response Notice an
alternative replacement Manager ("Alternative Replacement Manager"); provided,
that any Alternative Replacement Manager shall satisfy the requirements of
Section 8.4(b) of the Management Agreement imposed on a Successor Manager. Such
Response Notice must contain the name of the proposed Alternative Replacement
Manager, the information that may be reasonably required to confirm that the
Alternative Replacement Manager satisfies the requirements of Section 8.4(b) of
the Management Agreement imposed on a Successor Manager and the other
information that the Lessee may reasonably request. The Lessee shall replace the
Manager with the Alternative Replacement Manager within 60 calendar days after
the delivery of the Response Notice. Any Alternative Replacement Manager
appointed pursuant to this Section 6.12(c) shall execute and deliver to the
Lessee and to the replaced Manager an instrument accepting such appointment,
including customary confidentiality provisions in favor of the replaced Manager
and the Lessee, and thereupon such Alternative Replacement Manager, without
further act, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties and trusts
of the replaced Manager under the Management Agreement on the same terms and
conditions as the replaced Manager (or such other commercially reasonable terms
and conditions as the Alternative Replacement Manager may reasonably require and

Through Trustee, each Owner Participant and each Other Owner Participant) with
like effect as if originally named the Manager therein except that in any event
any Alternative Replacement Manager shall not be a "Guaranteed Party" for
purposes of the Trinity Guaranty or the Other Trinity Guaranty.

Trustee. Any of the Pass Through

Trustee or the Other Pass Through Trustee may at any time (i) withdraw any
Manager Replacement Notice without penalty to the Pass Through Trustee and the
Other Pass Through Trustee, and the Lessee shall have no obligation to replace
the Manager under this Section 6.12 or (ii) waive any or all of its rights under
this Section 6.12.

          (e)  No Notes Outstanding. If after the replacement of the Manager
with a Replacement Manager or an Alternative Replacement Manager pursuant to
this Section 6.12, there are no Notes outstanding, the Lessee shall have the
right, but not the obligation, at its sole cost and expense to terminate such
Replacement Manager or Alternative Replacement Manager and return the Manager so
replaced without penalty to the Lessee.

     Section 6.13 Acknowledgment of Equity Collateral Security Documents. Each
of the parties to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees that (a) the Equity
Collateral Security Documents are included in the Operative Agreements and (b)
any rights of the Owner Trustee and/or Owner Participant or any other Equity
Beneficiary (i) to payment or performance under the Equity Collateral Security
Documents or (ii) to amend, waive or otherwise modify any provision of the
Equity Collateral Security Documents are included in Excepted Property. It is
expressly understood that (x) the exercise of any rights and remedies under the
Collateral Agency Agreement and the other Operative Agreements (other than the
Equity Collateral Security Documents) shall not restrict, limit or preclude the
exercise of any rights and remedies under the Equity Collateral Security
Documents and (y) the exercise of any rights and remedies under the Equity
Collateral Security Documents shall not restrict, limit or preclude the exercise
of any rights and remedies under the Collateral Agency Agreement and the other
Operative Agreements (other than the Equity Collateral Security Documents), in
each case without duplication of any amounts otherwise payable under the
Operative Agreements.

Indemnitee" means the Pass Through Trustee, both in its individual capacity and
as trustee, the Owner Participant, its Affiliates (including, without
limitation, Philip Morris Capital Corporation, Grant Holdings, Inc., Trimaran
Leasing Investors, L.L.C. I, Trimaran Leasing Investors, L.L.C. II and Trimaran
Leasing, L.P.), the Owner Trustee, the Trust Company, the Indenture Trustee,
both in its individual capacity and as trustee, each of their successors or
assigns permitted under the terms of the Operative Agreements, any officer,
director, employee or agent of any of the foregoing, the Trust Estate and the
Indenture Estate; "Equity Tax Indemnitee" means the Owner Participant, its
Affiliates, the Owner Trustee, the Trust Company, and

each of their respective successors, assigns, officers, directors, employees and
agents and the Trust Estate; "Lender Tax Indemnitee" means each Tax Indemnitee
which is not an Equity Tax Indemnitee.

          (b)  Taxes Indemnified. Except as provided below, all payments by the
Lessee to any Tax Indemnitee in connection with the transactions contemplated
by the Operative Agreements shall be free of withholdings of any nature
whatsoever (and at the time that any payment is made upon which any withholding
is required the Lessee shall pay an additional amount such that the net amount
actually received will, after such withholding and on an After-Tax Basis, equal
the full amount of the payment then due) and shall be free of expense to each
Tax Indemnitee for collection or other charges. The Lessee shall defend,
indemnify and save harmless each Tax Indemnitee from and against, and as between
the Lessee and each Tax Indemnitee the Lessee hereby assumes liability with
respect to, all fees (including, without limitation, license fees and
registration fees), taxes (including, without limitation, income, gross
receipts, franchise, sales, use, value added, property and stamp taxes),
assessments, levies, imposts, duties, charges or withholdings of any nature
whatsoever, together with any and all penalties, additions to tax, fines or
interest thereon ("Taxes") imposed against any of the Tax Indemnitees, any item
of Equipment or Pledged Equipment or the Lessee, upon, arising from or relating
to

               (i)  any item of the Equipment or the Pledged Equipment,

               (ii) the construction, manufacture, financing, purchase,
delivery, ownership, acceptance, rejection, possession, improvement, use,
operation, leasing, subleasing, condition, maintenance, repair, refinancing,
registration, sale, return, replacement, storage, abandonment or other
application or disposition of any item of the Equipment or the Pledged
Equipment,

               (iii) the rental payments, receipts or earnings arising from any
item of the Equipment or the Pledged Equipment or payable pursuant to the
Operative Agreements, or

               (iv) the Operative Agreements, the Equipment Note or any Sublease
or any Pledged Equipment Lease or otherwise with respect to or in connection
with the transactions contemplated thereby.

          (c)  Taxes Excluded. The indemnity provided in Section 7.1(b) shall
not include:

the United States federal government (but not excluding any Income Tax required
to make a payment on an After-Tax Basis);

               (ii) as to any Equity Tax Indemnitee, any Income Tax imposed by
any state, local or foreign government or taxing authority or subdivision

activities of the Lessee or its Affiliates or any sublessee in the taxing
jurisdiction, (II) the presence or organization of the Lessee or any sublessee
in the taxing jurisdiction, (III) the status of the Lessee or any sublessee as a
foreign entity or as an entity owned by a foreign person or (IV) Lessee or
sublessee having made (or deemed to have made) payments to the Tax Indemnitee
from the relevant jurisdiction; provided, further, however, that the preceding
proviso shall not apply to any jurisdiction where the Owner Trust, the Owner
Trustee (other than in its individual capacity) or the Owner Participant has its
legal domicile or principal place of business (determined without regard to the
transactions contemplated by the Operative Agreement);

               (iii) as to any Equity Tax Indemnitee, any Tax that is imposed as
a result of the sale, transfer or other disposition, by the Lessor or the Owner
Participant of any of its rights with respect to any item of Equipment, Equity
Collateral or the Owner Participant's interest in the Trust Estate unless such
sale, transfer or other disposition is a result of an Event of Default, results
from any substitution, repair or replacement of any item of Equipment under the
Lease, or results from any sale, transfer or disposition required under the
Lease (including but not limited to Section 10 of the Lease);

               (iv) as to any Equity Tax Indemnitee, any Taxes to the extent
they exceed the Taxes that would have been imposed had an Equity Tax Indemnitee
not transferred, sold or disposed of its interest or rights in any item of the
Equipment to a non-U.S. Person;

               (v)  Taxes imposed on a Lender Tax Indemnitee with respect to any

simultaneously with the applicable time of payment of the Equipment Notes or
relate to any payment made by the Lessee after such date;

               (vi) as to any Tax Indemnitee, Taxes to the extent caused by any

Indemnitee or a Related Party under any of the Operative Agreements or by the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Tax Indemnitee or a Related
Party;

               (vii) as to any Lender Tax Indemnitee, Taxes which become payable
as a result of a sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition (whether
voluntary or involuntary) by such Lender Tax Indemnitee of all or any portion of
its interest in the Equipment or any part thereof, the Pledged Equipment or any
part thereof, the Trust Estate, the Indenture Estate or any of the Operative
Agreements or rights created thereunder, other than as a result of (A) the
substitution, modification or improvement of the Equipment or any part thereof
or the Pledged Equipment or any part thereof, (B) a modification to the
Operative Agreements, or (C) a disposition which occurs as the result of the
exercise of remedies upon a Lease Event of Default; provided, that,
notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lessee shall not be obligated to indemnify
any Lender Tax Indemnitee with respect to net income taxes imposed within the

disposition by such Lender Tax Indemnitee or any Taxes imposed as a result of
the status of the Lender Tax Indemnitee as other than a resident of the United
States for tax purposes;

               (viii) as to any Lender Tax Indemnitee, Taxes imposed as the
result of such Lender Tax Indemnitee not being a resident of the United States

               (ix) as to any Lender Tax Indemnitee, Income Taxes or transfer
taxes relating to any payments of principal, interest or Make Whole Amount, if

Tax Indemnitee that are imposed by (A) any other jurisdiction in which such
Indemnitee is subject to such Taxes as a result of it or an Affiliate being
organized in such jurisdiction or conducting activities in that jurisdiction
unrelated to the transactions contemplated by the Operative Agreements, (B) the
United States federal government or (C) any state or local government within the
United States;

               (x)  Taxes to the extent directly resulting from or that would
not have been imposed but for (x) in the case of Taxes imposed on or with
respect to any Equity Tax Indemnitee, the existence of any Lessor Liens with
respect to such Equity Tax Indemnitee, (y) in the case of Taxes imposed on or
with respect to any Lender Tax Indemnitee, the existence of any Liens
attributable to the Indenture Trustee or Liens attributable to the Pass Through
Trustee;

               (xi) Taxes imposed on a Tax Indemnitee to the extent that such
Taxes would not have been imposed upon such Tax Indemnitee but for any failure
of such Tax Indemnitee or a Related Party to comply with (x) any certification,
information, documentation, reporting or other similar requirements

concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the
jurisdiction imposing such Taxes, if such compliance is required under the laws
or regulations of such jurisdiction to obtain or establish relief or exemption
from or reduction in such Taxes and the Tax Indemnitee or such Related Party was
eligible to comply with such requirement or (y) any other certification,
information, documentation, reporting or other similar requirements under the
Tax laws or regulations of the jurisdiction imposing such Taxes that would
establish entitlement to otherwise applicable relief or exemption from such
Taxes; provided, however, that the exclusion set forth in this clause (xii)
shall not apply (I) if such failure to comply was due to a failure of the Lessee
to provide reasonable assistance on request in complying with such requirement,
(II) if, in the case of Taxes imposed on the Owner Participant, in the good
faith judgment of the Owner Participant there is a risk of adverse consequence
to the Owner Participant or any Affiliate from such compliance against which
the Owner Participant is not satisfactorily indemnified, (III) in the case of
Taxes imposed on the Owner Participant, if any such failure to comply on the
part of the Owner Trustee was the result of the Owner Trustee's gross negligence
or failure to act in accordance with instructions of the Owner Participant, or
(IV) in the case of any Tax Indemnitee, unless Lessee shall have given such Tax
Indemnitee prior written notice of such requirements;

               (xii) Taxes that are imposed with respect to any period after the
earlier of (x) return of the Equipment to the Lessor in accordance with, and at
a time and place contemplated by the Lease (including the payment of all amounts
due at such time) and (y) the termination of the Term pursuant to Section 6, 10,
11, 15 or 22 of the Lease and the discharge in full of Lessee's payment
obligation's thereunder unless the Equipment is thereafter required to be
returned, in which case, after such return; provided, however, that the
exclusion set forth in this clause (xii) shall not apply to Taxes to the extent
such Taxes relate to events occurring or matters arising prior to or
simultaneously with such return or termination;

activities unrelated to the contemplated transactions in, the jurisdiction
imposing such Taxes;

               (xiv) Taxes imposed on the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee

<PAGE>

               (xv) Taxes imposed on any Tax Indemnitee, or any other person
who, together with such Tax Indemnitee, is treated as one employer for employee
benefit plan purposes, as a result of, or in connection with, any "prohibited
transaction," within the meaning of the provisions of the Code or regulations
thereunder or as set forth in Section 406 of ERISA or the regulations
implementing ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or the regulations thereunder;

               (xvi) Taxes for so long as (x) such Taxes are being contested in
accordance with the provisions of Section 7.1(e) hereof, (y) the Lessee is in
compliance with its obligations under Section 7.1(e), and (z) the payment of
such Taxes is not required pursuant to Section 7.1(e);

               (xvii) Taxes as to which such Tax Indemnitee is indemnified
pursuant to the Tax Indemnity Agreement;

               (xviii) any Taxes imposed on or with respect to any
Certificateholder; and

               (xix) Taxes imposed as a result of the authorization or giving of
any future amendments, supplements, waivers or consents with respect to any
Operative Agreement other than (w) those which are legally required, (x) in
connection with the exercise of remedies pursuant to Section 15 of the Lease,
(y) such as have been proposed by the Lessee or consented to by the Lessee or
(z) those that are required pursuant to the terms of the Operative Agreements.

          (d)  Payments to Tax Indemnitee. The Lessee agrees to pay, on demand,
any and all Taxes indemnified under this Section 7.1 ("Indemnified Taxes"), and
to keep at all times all and every part of each item of the Equipment and
Pledged Equipment free and clear of all Indemnified Taxes which might in any way
affect the interest of any Tax Indemnitee therein or result in a Lien upon any
such item of the Equipment or Pledged Equipment; provided, however, that the
Lessee shall be under no obligation to pay any Tax so long as either the Tax
Indemnitee or the Lessee is contesting in good faith and by appropriate legal
proceedings such tax and the nonpayment thereof does not, in the reasonable
opinion of the Tax Indemnitee, materially adversely affect the interest of any
Tax Indemnitee hereunder or under the Indenture.

          Subject to Section 7.1(e), if any Indemnified Taxes shall have been
charged or levied against any Tax Indemnitee directly and paid by such Tax
Indemnitee after such Tax Indemnitee shall have given written notice thereof to
the Lessee and the same shall have remained unpaid for a period of ten Business
Days thereafter, the Lessee shall reimburse such Tax Indemnitee payment.

          (e)  Contests. If a written claim is made by any taxing authority
against a Tax Indemnitee for any Taxes with respect to which the Lessee may be
required to indemnify against hereunder (a "Tax Claim"), such Tax Indemnitee
shall give the Lessee written notice of such Tax Claim promptly (but in any
event within twenty (20) days) after its receipt, and shall furnish Lessee with
copies of such Tax Claim and all other writings received from the taxing
authority to the extent relating to such claim (but failure to so notify the
Lessee shall relieve the Lessee of its obligations hereunder only to the extent
it effectively precludes a contest of the claim). The Tax Indemnitee shall not
pay such Tax Claim until at least thirty (30) days after providing the Lessee
with such written notice, unless (a) the Tax Indemnitee is required to do so by
law or regulation and (b) in the written notice described above, the Tax
Indemnitee has notified the Lessee of such requirement. If the Lessee shall so
request within 30 days after receipt of such notice, then such Tax Indemnitee
shall in good faith at Lessee's expense contest such Tax; provided, however,
that to the extent the contest involves only Taxes constituting property taxes,
sales taxes, or use taxes and does not involve any taxes or other issues
relating to a Tax Indemnitee which are unrelated to the transactions
contemplated by the Operative Agreements and if no Equity Insufficiency
Circumstance exists, such contest shall be undertaken by the Lessee at the
Lessee's expense and at no-after-tax cost to the Lessor or the Owner
Participant, but if such contest would involve any other type of Tax or any
taxes or issues relating to a Tax Indemnitee which are unrelated to the
transactions contemplated by Operative Agreements or if an Equity Insufficiency
exists, then such Tax Indemnitee may, in its sole discretion, control such
contest (including selecting the forum for such contest, and determining whether
any such contest shall be conducted by (i) paying such Tax under protest or (ii)
resisting payment of such Tax or (iii) paying such Tax and seeking a refund
thereof; provided, further, however, that at such Tax Indemnitee's option, such
contest shall be conducted by the Lessee in the name of such Tax Indemnitee). In
no event shall such Tax Indemnitee be required or the Lessee be permitted to
contest any Tax for which the Lessee is obligated to indemnify pursuant to this
Section unless: (i) the Lessee shall have acknowledged in writing its liability
to such Tax Indemnitee for an indemnity payment pursuant to this Section as a
result of such claim if and to the extent such Tax Indemnitee or the Lessee, as
the case may be, shall not prevail in the contest of such claim; provided,
however, that the Lessee shall not be required to indemnify for such Taxes to
the extent the results of the contest clearly and unambiguously demonstrate that
the Tax is not an indemnified Tax; (ii) such Tax Indemnitee shall have received
the opinion of independent tax counsel selected by the Tax Indemnitee and
reasonably satisfactory to the Lessee furnished at the Lessee's sole expense, to
the effect that a reasonable basis exists for contesting such claim or, in the
event of an appeal of a court decision, that it is more likely than not that an
appellate court or an administrative agency with appellate jurisdiction, as the
case may be, will reverse or substantially modify the adverse determination;
(iii) the Lessee shall have agreed to pay such Tax Indemnitee on demand (and at
no after-tax

costs to the Lessor and the Owner Participant) all reasonable costs and expenses
that such Tax Indemnitee may incur in connection with contesting such claim
(including, without limitation, all costs, expenses, reasonable legal and
accounting fees, disbursements, penalties, interest and additions to the Tax);
(iv) no Lease Default described in Section 14(a), 14(b), 14(g) or 14(h) of the
Lease or a Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and shall have been
continuing, unless the Lessee shall have posted a satisfactory bond or other
security with respect to the costs of such contest and the Taxes which may be
required to be indemnified; (v) such Tax Indemnitee shall have determined that
the action to be taken will not result in any substantial danger of sale,
forfeiture or loss of, or the creation of any Lien, or the Lessee shall have or
otherwise made a provision to protect the interest of such Tax Indemnitee (in a
manner satisfactory to such Tax Indemnitee), on the Equipment or any portion
thereof or any interest therein; (vi) the amount of such claims alone, or, if
the subject matter thereof shall be of a continuing or recurring nature, when
aggregated with substantially identical potential claims shall be (A) at least
$5,000 in the event of a Lessee controlled contest, or (B) $25,000 in the event
of a Tax Indemnitee controlled contest; and (vii) if such contest shall be
conducted in a manner requiring the payment of the claim, the Lessee shall have
paid the amount required (and at no after-tax costs to the Lessor and the Owner
Participant). The Lessee shall cooperate with the Tax Indemnitee with respect to
any contest controlled and conducted by the Tax Indemnitee and the Tax
Indemnitee shall consult with the Lessee regarding the conduct of such contest.
The Tax Indemnitee shall cooperate with respect to any contest controlled and
conducted by the Lessee and the Lessee shall consult with the Tax Indemnitee
regarding the conduct of such contest.

          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section
7.1, no Tax Indemnitee shall be required to contest any claim if the subject
matter thereof shall be of a continuing or recurring nature and shall have
previously been adversely decided to the Tax Indemnitee pursuant to the contest
provisions of this Section unless there shall have been a change in the law
(including, without limitation, amendments to statutes or regulations,
administrative rulings or court decisions) enacted, promulgated or effective
after such claim shall have been so previously decided, and such Tax Indemnitee
shall have received an opinion of independent tax counsel selected by the Tax
Indemnitee and reasonably satisfactory to the Lessee, furnished at the Lessee's
sole expense, to the effect that such change is favorable to the position which
such Tax Indemnitee or the Lessee, as the case may be, had asserted in such
previous contest and as a result of such change, there is a reasonable basis to
contest such claim.

          Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 7.1, a Tax
Indemnitee will not be required to contest the imposition of any Tax and shall
be permitted to settle or compromise any claim without the Lessee's consent if
such Tax Indemnitee (A) shall waive its right to indemnity under this Section
7.1 with respect

                                          Participation Agreement (TRLI 2001-1C)

                                       72

<PAGE>

to such Tax (and any directly related claim and any claim the outcome of
which is determined based upon the outcome of such claim) and (B) shall pay to
the Lessee any amount previously paid or advanced by the Lessee pursuant to this
Section 7.1 with respect to such Tax, plus interest at the rate that would have
been payable by the relevant taxing authority with respect to a refund of such
Tax.

          (f)  Payments to Lessee. With respect to any payment or indemnity
hereunder, such payment or indemnity shall have included an amount payable to
the Tax Indemnitee sufficient to hold such Tax Indemnitee harmless on an After-
Tax Basis from all Taxes required to be paid by such Tax Indemnitee with respect
to such payment or indemnity under the laws of any federal, state or local
government or taxing authority in or of the United States, or under the laws of
any taxing authority or governmental subdivision in or of a foreign country;
provided that, if any Tax Indemnitee realizes and recognizes a permanent tax
benefit by reason of such payment or indemnity (whether such tax benefit shall
be by means of a foreign tax credit, investment tax credit, depreciation or
recovery deduction or otherwise), such Tax Indemnitee shall pay to the Lessee an
amount equal to the sum of such tax benefit plus any tax benefit realized as the
result of any payment made pursuant to this proviso, when, as, if and to the
extent realized; provided further that, (i) if at the time such payment shall be
due to the Lessee, a Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, such amount shall not be payable until such Lease Event of Default
shall have been cured, and (ii) the amount which such Tax Indemnitee shall be
required to pay to the Lessee shall not exceed the amounts which the Lessee has
theretofore paid such Tax Indemnitee hereunder with respect to such indemnity or
a substantially identical indemnity.

          For purposes of this Section 7.1, in determining the order in which
the consolidated (for federal income tax purposes) group to which such Tax
Indemnitee belongs utilizes withholding or other foreign taxes as a credit
against such group's United States income taxes, such Tax Indemnitee (and such
group) shall be deemed to utilize (i) first, all foreign taxes other than those
described in clauses (ii) and (iii) below; provided, however, that such other
foreign taxes which are carried back to the taxable year for which a
determination is being made pursuant to such clause (i) shall be deemed utilized
after the foreign taxes described in clause (ii) below, (ii) then, on a pari
passu basis, the foreign taxes indemnified hereunder together with all other
foreign taxes (including fees, taxes and other charges hereunder) with respect
to which such Tax Indemnitee (or any member of such group) is entitled to obtain
indemnification pursuant to an indemnification provision contained in any lease,
loan agreement, financing document or participation agreement (including,
without limitation, this Agreement) pursuant to which there is an agreement that
foreign taxes shall be, or shall be deemed to be, utilized on a basis no less
favorable to the indemnitor than those contemplated in this paragraph, and (iii)
third, foreign taxes attributable to transactions entered into by such Tax

                                          Participation Agreement (TRLI 2001-1C)

<PAGE>

Indemnitee (or any member of such group) which did not provide for foreign taxes
to be utilized or deemed utilized on at least a pari passu basis.

          (g)  Reports. In the event any reports with respect to Indemnified
Taxes are required to be made, the Lessee will either prepare and file such
reports (and in the case of reports which are required to be filed on the basis
of individual items of Equipment, such reports shall be prepared and filed in
such manner as to show, if required, the interest of each Tax Indemnitee in such
items of Equipment) or, if it shall not be permitted to file the same, it will
notify each Tax Indemnitee of such reporting requirements, prepare such reports
in such manner as shall be satisfactory to each Tax Indemnitee and deliver the
same to each Tax Indemnitee within a reasonable period prior to the date the
same is to be filed. The Lessee shall provide such information as the Owner
Participant or the Lessor may reasonably require from the Lessee to enable the
Owner Participant and the Lessor to fulfill their respective tax filing, tax
audit, and tax litigation obligations.

          (h)  Survival. In the event that, during the continuance of this
Agreement, any Indemnified Tax accrues or becomes payable or is levied or
assessed (or is attributable to the period of time during which the Lease is in
existence or prior to the return of Equipment in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease) which the Lessee is or will be obligated to pay or reimburse,
pursuant to this Section 7.1, such liability shall continue, notwithstanding the
expiration of the Lease, until all such Taxes are paid or reimbursed by the
Lessee.

respect thereof (provided, however, that Taxes that are, or are in the nature
of, sales, use, rental, value-added, excise, ad valorem, or property (whether
tangible or intangible) taxes shall not constitute an Income Tax).

          (k)  Certain Withholding. If the Indenture Trustee fails to with hold
any Tax required to be withheld with respect to any payment to a Lender Tax
Indemnitee or any claim is otherwise asserted by a taxing authority against any

               (xii) with respect to the Owner Trustee in its individual and
trust capacities, and its Related Indemnitee Group, Claims relating to a failure
on the part of the Owner Trustee to distribute in accordance with the Trust

future amendments, supplements, waivers or consents with respect to any of the
Operative Agreements which amendments, supplements, waivers or consents are not
requested by Lessee or are not specifically required by the Operative
Agreements.

          (e)  Insured Claims. In the case of any Claim indemnified by the
Lessee hereunder which is covered by a policy of insurance maintained by the
Lessee pursuant to Section 12 of the Lease or otherwise, each Indemnified Person
agrees to provide reasonable cooperation to the insurers in the exercise of
their rights to investigate, defend, settle or compromise such Claim as may be
required to retain the benefits of such insurance with respect to such Claim.

          (f)  Claims Procedure. An Indemnified Person shall, after obtaining
knowledge thereof, promptly notify the Lessee of any Claim as to which
indemnification is sought; provided, however, that the failure to give such
notice shall not release the Lessee from any of its obligations under this
Section 7.2, except (but only if neither the Lessee nor TILC shall have actual
knowledge of such Claim) to the extent that failure to give notice of any
action, suit or proceeding against such Indemnified Person shall have a material
adverse effect on Lessee's ability to defend such Claim or recover proceeds
under any insurance policies maintained by the

                                          Participation Agreement (TRLI 2001-1C)

                                       79

<PAGE>

Lessee or to the extent Lessee's indemnification obligations are increased as a
result of such failure. The Lessee shall, after obtaining knowledge thereof,
promptly notify each Indemnified Person of any indemnified Claim affecting such
Indemnified Person. Subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, the
Lessee shall at its sole cost and expense be entitled to control, and shall
assume full responsibility for, the defense of such claim or liability; provided
that the Lessee shall confirm to such Indemnified Person Lessee's obligations to
indemnify hereunder for such Claim, shall keep the Indemnified Person which is
the subject of such proceeding fully apprised of the status of such proceeding
and shall provide such Indemnified Person with all information with respect to
such proceeding as such Indemnified Person shall reasonably request. To the
extent that a Claim is made against Lessee pursuant to this Section 7.2 at a
time when an identical claim for indemnification arising from substantially
similar facts and circumstances is being asserted against TILC, TRMI and/or
Trinity pursuant to this Section 7 or Section 4 of the Trinity Guaranty, if
Lessee is entitled to control the defense of such Claim pursuant to this Section
7.2 and at the same time TILC, TRMI and/or Trinity, as the case may be, is
entitled to control the defense of such claim or liability pursuant to this
Section 7 or Section 4 of the Trinity Guaranty, Lessee's indemnification
obligations under this Section 7.2 shall not be reduced as a result of the
inability of Lessee to control the defense of such Claim where such inability to
control the defense of such Claim is caused by the exercise by TILC, TRMI and/or
Trinity, as applicable, of such Person's right to control the defense of such
indemnified claim as provided by this Section 7 or Section 4 of the Trinity
Guaranty.

          Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, the Lessee shall
not be entitled to control and assume responsibility for the defense of any
Claim if (1) a Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (2)
such proceeding will involve any material danger of the sale, forfeiture or loss
of, or the creation of any Lien (other than any Lien permitted under the
Operative Agreements or a Lien which is adequately bonded to the satisfaction of
such Indemnified Person) on, any Unit or Pledged Unit, (3) in the good faith
opinion of such Indemnified Person, there exists an actual or potential conflict
of interest such that it is advisable for such Indemnified Person to retain
control of such proceeding, (4) such Claim involves the possibility of criminal
sanctions or liability to such Indemnified Person or (5) an Equity Insufficiency
Circumstance shall exist. In the circumstances described in clauses (1) - (5),
the Indemnified Person shall be entitled to control and assume responsibility
for the defense of such claim or liability at the expense of the Lessee. In
addition, any Indemnified Person may participate in any proceeding controlled by
the Lessee pursuant to this Section 7.2, but only to the extent that such
Person's participation does not in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the
Lessee materially interfere with such control, at its own expense, in respect of
any such proceeding as to which the Lessee shall have acknowledged in writing
its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Person pursuant to this Section 7.2,
and at the expense

                                          Participation Agreement (TRLI 2001-1C)

                                       80

<PAGE>

of the Lessee in respect of any such proceeding as to which the Lessee shall not
have so acknowledged its obligation to the Indemnified Person pursuant to this
Section 7.2. The Lessee may in any event participate in all such proceedings at
its own cost. Nothing contained in this Section 7.2(f) shall be deemed to
require an Indemnified Person to contest any Claim or to assume responsibility
for or control of any judicial proceeding with respect thereto. No Indemnified
Person shall enter into any settlement or other compromise with respect to any
Claim without the prior written consent of the Lessee unless the Indemnified
Person waives its rights to indemnification hereunder.

          (g)  Subrogation. If a Claim indemnified by the Lessee under this
Section 7.2 is paid in full by the Lessee and/or an insurer under a policy of
insurance maintained by the Lessee, the Lessee and/or such insurer, as the case
may be, shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to the rights and
remedies of the Indemnified Person (other than under insurance policies
maintained by such Indemnified Person) on whose behalf such Claim was paid with
respect to the transaction or event giving rise to such Claim. Should an
Indemnified Person receive any refund, in whole or in part, with respect to any
Claim paid by the Lessee hereunder, it shall promptly pay over the amount
refunded (but not in excess of the amount the Lessee or any of its insurers has
paid) to the Lessee; provided, however, so long as a Lease Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, such amount may be held by the Collateral
Agent as security for the Lessee's obligations under the Lease and the other
Operative Agreements; provided, further, only with respect to the Owner
Participant and its Related Indemnitee Group, so long as an event referred to in
clause (5) of Section 7.2(f) hereof shall have occurred and be continuing, such
amount may be held by the Owner Trustee as security for the Lessee's obligations
with respect to the Equity Insufficiency Circumstance.

     Section 7.3 Indemnification by TILC.

          (a)  Claims Indemnified. Whether or not any Unit is accepted under the
Lease, or the Closing occurs, and subject to the exclusions stated in Section
7.3(b) below, TILC agrees to indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless each
Indemnified Person on an After-Tax Basis against Claims directly or indirectly
resulting from or arising out of or alleged to result from or arise out of
(whether or not such Indemnified Person shall be indemnified as to such Claim by
any other Person but subject to Section 7.3(d)):

               (i)  any breach of or any inaccuracy in any representation or
warranty made by TILC in this Agreement or any of the other Operative Agreements

assumed any of the obligations with respect to the Equipment Notes under Section
3.6 of the Indenture and the Equipment Notes remain outstanding under the
Indenture) the later to occur of (x) with respect to such Unit, the earlier to
occur of the termination of the Lease or the expiration of the Lease Term in
accordance with the terms thereof, and (y) with respect to such Unit, the return

understood that, so long as any Unit is in storage as provided in Section 6.1(c)
of the Lease, the date of return thereof for the purpose of this clause (i)
shall be the last day of the Storage Period);

be performed by such Indemnified Person or a Related Party under any of the
Operative Agreements, or the falsity of any representation or warranty of such

document or certificate delivered in connection therewith;

               (iv) Claims to the extent attributable to any transfer by the

transfer of all or any portion of the Equipment or any Owner Participant's
interest in the Equipment to the Lessee, (C) the transfer of all or any portion

involuntary) (a) in the case of the Owner Participant, of any of its interest in

               (xii) with respect to the Owner Trustee in its individual and
trust capacities, and its Related Indemnitee Group, Claims relating to a failure
on the part of the Owner Trustee to distribute in accordance with the Trust
Agreement any amounts distributable by it thereunder;

               (xiii) with respect to the Indenture Trustee in its individual
and trust capacities, Claims relating to failure on the part of the Indenture
Trustee to distribute in accordance with the Indenture any amounts distributable
by it thereunder;

               (xiv) with respect to the Pass Through Trustee in its individual
and trust capacities, Claims relating to failure on the part of the Pass Through
Trustee to distribute in accordance with the Pass Through Trust Agreement any
amounts distributable by it thereunder;

               (xv) Claims relating to the offer, sale or delivery of any
Equipment Note or any interest in the Trust Estate;

               (xvi) Claims relating to any sale, transfer or holding of the
Equipment Notes or Pass Through Certificates being deemed to result in a
"prohibited transaction" under ERISA; or

               (xvii) Claims relating to the authorization or giving or
withholding of any future amendments, supplements, waivers or consents with
respect to any of the Operative Agreements which amendments, supplements,
waivers or consents are not requested by TILC or are not specifically required
by the Operative Agreements.

          (c)  Claims Procedure. An Indemnified Person shall, after obtaining
knowledge thereof, promptly notify TILC of any Claim as to which indemnification
is sought; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not
release TILC from any of its obligations under this Section 7.3, except (but
only if TILC shall not have actual knowledge of such Claim) to the extent that
failure to give notice of any action, suit or proceeding against such
Indemnified Person shall have a material adverse effect on TILC's ability to
defend such Claim or recover proceeds under any insurance policies maintained by
TILC or to the extent TILC's indemnification obligations are increased as a
result of such failure. TILC shall, after obtaining knowledge thereof, promptly
notify each Indemnified Person of any indemnified Claim affecting such
Indemnified Person. Subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, TILC
shall at its sole cost and expense be entitled to

                                          Participation Agreement (TRLI 2001-1C)

                                       84

<PAGE>

control, and shall assume full responsibility for, the defense of such claim or
liability; provided that TILC shall confirm to such Indemnified Person TILC's
obligations to indemnify hereunder for such Claim, shall keep the Indemnified
Person which is the subject of such proceeding fully apprised of the status of
such proceeding and shall provide such Indemnified Person with all information
with respect to such proceeding as such Indemnified Person shall reasonably
request. To the extent that a Claim is made against TILC pursuant to this
Section 7.3 at a time when an identical claim for indemnification arising from
substantially similar facts and circumstances is being asserted against Lessee,
TRMI and/or Trinity pursuant to this Section 7 or Section 4 of the Trinity
Guaranty, if TILC is entitled to control the defense of such Claim pursuant to
this Section 7.3 and at the same time Lessee, TRMI and/or Trinity, as the case
may be, is entitled to control the defense of such claim or liability pursuant
to this Section 7 or Section 4 of the Trinity Guaranty, TILC's indemnification
obligations under this Section 7.3 shall not be reduced as a result of the
inability of TILC to control the defense of such Claim where such inability to
control the defense of such Claim is caused by the exercise by Lessee, TRMI
and/or Trinity, as applicable, of such Person's right to control the defense of
such indemnified claim as provided by this Section 7 or Section 4 of the Trinity
Guaranty.

          Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, TILC shall not
be entitled to control and assume responsibility for the defense of any Claim if
(1) a Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (2) such
proceeding will involve any material danger of the sale, forfeiture or loss of,
or the creation of any Lien (other than any Lien permitted under the Operative
Agreements or a Lien which is adequately bonded to the satisfaction of such
Indemnified Person) on, any Unit or Pledged Unit, (3) in the good faith opinion
of such Indemnified Person, there exists an actual or potential conflict of
interest such that it is advisable for such Indemnified Person to retain control
of such proceeding, (4) such Claim involves the possibility of criminal
sanctions or liability to such Indemnified Person or (5) an Equity Insufficiency
Circumstance shall exist. In the circumstances described in clauses (1) - (5),
the Indemnified Person shall be entitled to control and assume responsibility
for the defense of such claim or liability at the expense of TILC. In addition,
any Indemnified Person may participate in any proceeding controlled by TILC
pursuant to this Section 7.3, but only to the extent that such Person's
participation does not in the reasonable opinion of counsel to TILC materially
interfere with such control, at its own expense, in respect of any such
proceeding as to which TILC shall have acknowledged in writing its obligation to
indemnify the Indemnified Person pursuant to this Section 7.3, and at the
expense of TILC in respect of any such proceeding as to which TILC shall not
have so acknowledged its obligation to the Indemnified Person pursuant to this
Section 7.3. TILC may in any event participate in all such proceedings at its
own cost. Nothing contained in this Section 7.3(c) shall be deemed to require an
Indemnified Person to contest any Claim or to assume responsibility for or
control of any judicial proceeding with respect

                                          Participation Agreement (TRLI 2001-1C)

                                       85

thereto. No Indemnified Person shall enter into any settlement or other
compromise with respect to any Claim without the prior written consent of TILC
unless the Indemnified Person waives its rights to indemnification hereunder.

          (d)  Subrogation. If a Claim indemnified by TILC under this Section
7.3 is paid in full by TILC and/or an insurer under a policy of insurance
maintained by TILC, TILC and/or such insurer, as the case may be, shall be
subrogated to the extent of such payment to the rights and remedies of the
Indemnified Person (other than under insurance policies maintained by such
Indemnified Person) on whose behalf such Claim was paid with respect to the
transaction or event giving rise to such Claim. Should an Indemnified Person
receive any refund, in whole or in part, with respect to any Claim paid by TILC
hereunder, it shall promptly pay over the amount refunded (but not in excess of
the amount TILC or any of its insurers has paid) to TILC; provided, however, so
long as a Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such
amount may be held by the Collateral Agent as security for TILC's obligations
under the Management Agreement and the other Operative Agreements; provided,
further, only with respect to the Owner Participant and its Related Indemnitee
Group, so long as an event referred to in clause (5) of Section 7.3(c) hereof
shall have occurred and be continuing, such amount may be held by the Owner
Trustee as security for the Lessee's obligations with respect to the Equity
Insufficiency Circumstance.

     Section 7.4 Indemnification by TRMI.

          (a)  Claims Indemnified. Whether or not any Unit is accepted under the
Lease, or the Closing occurs, and subject to the exclusions stated in Section
7.4(b) below, TRMI agrees to indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless each
Indemnified Person on an After-Tax Basis against Claims directly or indirectly
resulting from or arising out of or alleged to result from or arise out of
(whether or not such Indemnified Person shall be indemnified as to such Claim by
any other Person but subject to Section 7.4(d)):

               (i) any breach of or any inaccuracy in any representation or
warranty made by TRMI in this Agreement or any of the other Operative Agreements
or in any certificate delivered by TRMI pursuant hereto or thereto;

               (ii) any breach of or failure by TRMI to perform any covenant or
obligation of TRMI set out in or contemplated by this Agreement or any of the
other Operative Agreements; and

               (iii) any violation of law, rule, regulation or order by TRMI or
its directors, officers, employees, agents or servants.

               (i)  Claims with respect to any Unit to the extent attributable
to acts or events occurring after (except (A) in any case where remedies are
being exercised under Section 15 of the Lease for so long as the Lessor shall be
entitled to exercise remedies under such Section 15, or (B) the Lessee has
assumed any of the obligations with respect to the Equipment Notes under Section
3.6 of the Indenture and the Equipment Notes remain outstanding under the
Indenture) the later to occur of (x) with respect to such Unit, the earlier to
occur of the termination of the Lease or the expiration of the Lease Term in
accordance with the terms thereof, and (y) with respect to each Unit, the return
of such Unit to the Lessor in accordance with the terms of the Lease (it being
understood that, so long as any Unit is in storage as provided in Section 6.1(c)
of the Lease, the date of return thereof for the purpose of this clause (i)
shall be the last day of the Storage Period);

               (ii) Claims which are Taxes or any loss of tax benefits or
increases in tax liability; provided that this clause (ii) shall not apply to
Taxes necessary to pay Claims on an After-Tax Basis;

               (iii) with respect to any particular Indemnified Person, Claims
to the extent resulting from (x) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
such Indemnified Person or a Related Party, or (y) any breach of any covenant to
be performed by such Indemnified Person or a Related Party under any of the
Operative Agreements, or the falsity of any representation or warranty of such
Indemnified Person or a Related Party in any of the Operative Agreements or in a
document or certificate delivered in connection therewith;

               (iv) Claims to the extent attributable to any transfer by the
Lessor of the Equipment or any portion thereof or any transfer by the Owner

Collateral other than (A) any transfer after a Lease Event of Default, (B) the
transfer of all or any portion of the Equipment or any Owner Participant's
interest in the Equipment to the Lessee, (C) the transfer of all or any portion
of the Equipment to a third party pursuant to Lessee's election to terminate the
Lease or (D) any transfer of all or any portion of the Equipment pursuant to
Section 6.9;

               (v)  with respect to any particular Indemnified Person, unless

in the case of the Owner Participant, of any of its interest in the Beneficial
Interest (other than

amount without a right of reimbursement, or any Claim payable by any Indemnified
Person pursuant to any provision of any Operative Agreement that expressly
states that such Claim is not subject to indemnification or reimbursement by the
Lessee, or any Claim arising out of obligations expressly assumed by the
Indemnified Person seeking indemnification or a Related Party;

               (x)  Claims relating to any amount that is an ordinary and usual
operating or overhead expense of any Indemnified Person (it being understood
out-of-pocket expenses payable to third parties do not constitute "ordinary and

               (xiv) with respect to the Pass Through Trustee in its individual

          (c)  Claims Procedure. An Indemnified Person shall, after obtaining
knowledge thereof, promptly notify TRMI of any Claim as to which indemnification
is sought; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not
release TRMI from any of its obligations under this Section 7.4, except (but
only if TRMI shall not have actual knowledge of such Claim) to the extent that
failure to give notice of any action, suit or proceeding against such
Indemnified Person shall have a material adverse effect on TRMI's ability to
defend such Claim or recover proceeds under any insurance policies maintained by
TRMI or to the extent TRMI's indemnification obligations are increased as a
result of such failure. TRMI shall, after obtaining knowledge thereof, promptly
notify each Indemnified Person of any indemnified Claim affecting such
Indemnified Person. Subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, TRMI
shall at its sole cost and expense be entitled to control, and shall assume full
responsibility for, the defense of such claim or liability; provided that TRMI
shall confirm to such Indemnified Person TRMI's obligations to indemnify
hereunder for such Claim, shall keep the Indemnified Person which is the subject
of such proceeding fully apprised of the status of such proceeding and shall
provide such Indemnified Person with all information with respect to such
proceeding as such Indemnified Person shall reasonably request. To the extent

Claim is made against TRMI pursuant to this Section 7.4 at a time when an
identical claim for indemnification arising from substantially similar facts and
circumstances is being asserted against Lessee, TILC and/or Trinity pursuant to
this Section 7 or Section 4 of the Trinity Guaranty, if TRMI is entitled to
control the defense of such Claim pursuant to this Section 7.4 and at the same
time Lessee, TILC and/or Trinity, as the case may be, is entitled to control the
defense of such claim or liability pursuant to this Section 7 or Section 4 of
the Trinity Guaranty, TRMI's indemnification obligations under this Section 7.4
shall not be reduced as a result of the inability of TRMI to control the defense
of such Claim where such inability to control the defense of such Claim is
caused by the exercise by Lessee, TILC and/or Trinity, as applicable, of such
Person's right to control the defense of such indemnified claim as provided by
this Section 7 or Section 4 of the Trinity Guaranty.

          Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, TRMI shall not
be entitled to control and assume responsibility for the defense of any Claim if
(1) a Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (2) such
proceeding will involve any material danger of the sale, forfeiture or loss of,
or the creation of any Lien (other than any Lien permitted under the Operative
Agreements or a Lien which is adequately bonded to the satisfaction of such
Indemnified Person) on, any Unit or Pledged Unit, (3) in the good faith opinion
of such Indemnified Person, there exists an actual or potential conflict of
interest such that it is advisable for such Indemnified Person to retain control
of such proceeding, (4) such Claim involves the possibility of criminal
sanctions or liability to such Indemnified Person or (5) an Equity Insufficiency
Circumstance shall exist. In the circumstances described in clauses (1) - (5),
the Indemnified Person shall be entitled to control and assume responsibility
for the defense of such claim or liability at the expense of TRMI. In addition,
any Indemnified Person may participate in any proceeding controlled by TRMI
pursuant to this Section 7.4, but only to the extent that such Person's
participation does not in the reasonable opinion of counsel to TRMI materially
interfere with such control, at its own expense, in respect of any such
proceeding as to which TRMI shall have acknowledged in writing its obligation to
indemnify the Indemnified Person pursuant to this Section 7.4, and at the

without the prior written consent of TRMI unless the Indemnified Person waives
its rights to indemnification hereunder.

          (d)  Subrogation. If a Claim indemnified by TRMI under this
Section 7.4 is paid in full by TRMI and/or an insurer under a policy of
insurance maintained by TRMI, TRMI and/or such insurer, as the case may be,
shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to the rights and remedies of
the Indemnified Person (other than under insurance policies maintained by such
Indemnified Person) on whose behalf such Claim was paid with respect to the
transaction or event giving rise to such Claim. Should an Indemnified Person
receive any refund, in whole or in part, with respect to any Claim paid by TRMI
hereunder, it shall promptly pay over the amount refunded (but not in excess of
the amount TRMI or any of its insurers has paid) to TRMI; provided, however, so
long as a Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such
amount may be held by the Collateral Agent as security for TRMI's obligations
under the Administrative Services Agreement and the other Operative Agreements;
provided, further, only with respect to the Owner Participant and its Related
Indemnitee Group, so long as an event referred to in clause (5) of Section
7.4(c) hereof shall have occurred and be continuing, such amount may be held by
the Owner Trustee as security for the Lessee's obligations with respect to the
Equity Insufficiency Circumstance.

SECTION 8. LESSEE'S RIGHT OF QUIET ENJOYMENT.

     Each party to this Agreement acknowledges notice of, and consents in all
respects to, the terms of the Lease, and expressly, severally and as to its own
actions only, agrees that, so long as no Lease Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing, it shall not take or cause to be taken any action contrary to
the Lessee's rights under the Lease, including, without limitation, the right to
possession, use and quiet enjoyment by the Lessee of the Equipment, or by any
Sublessee of the Equipment or by any Pledged Equipment Lessee of the Pledged
Equipment.

SECTION 9. SUCCESSOR INDENTURE TRUSTEE.

     In the event that the Indenture Trustee gives notice of its resignation
pursuant to Section 8.2 of the Indenture, the Owner Trustee shall promptly
appoint a successor Indenture Trustee reasonably acceptable to the Lessee.

SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS.

     Section 10.1 Consents. Each Participant covenants and agrees (subject, in
the case of the Loan Participant, to all of the terms and provisions of the
Indenture) that it shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any consent
requested by the Lessee, TILC, TRMI, the Owner Trustee, the Pass Through Trustee
or the Indenture Trustee, as the case may be, under the terms of the Operative
Agreements that by its terms is not to be unreasonably withheld by the Owner
Trustee or the Indenture Trustee.

     Section 10.2 Refinancing. So long as no Lease Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, the Lessee shall have the right, at any time
following the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date (as defined in the
Participation Agreement TRLI 2001-1A), and provided that Lessee is
simultaneously exercising the refinancing option provided by Section 10.2 of
each of the Other Participation Agreements, to request the Owner Participant and
the Owner Trustee to effect an optional prepayment of all, but not less than
all, of the Equipment Notes pursuant to Section 2.10(d) of the Indenture as part
of a refunding or refinancing operation, provided that the Lessee shall obtain
the prior consent of the Owner Participant to be granted in the sole discretion
of the Owner Participant acting in good faith if such refinancing imposes any
increased risk or liability on or otherwise adversely affects, the Owner
Participant; provided further, that the Owner Participant shall not withhold
such consent if in its sole judgment (i) any increased risk, or liability is
both remote and not material, (ii) the Lessee is at the time at least as
creditworthy as on the Closing Date and (iii) Lessee provides an indemnity, in
form and substance satisfactory to the Owner Participant, for such increased
risk or liability. As soon as practicable after receipt of such request and
consent, if required, the Owner Participant and the Lessee will enter into an
agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the parties thereto, as to the
terms of such refunding or refinancing as follows:

          (a)  the Lessee, the Owner Participant, the Indenture Trustee, the
Owner Trustee, and any other appropriate parties will enter into a financing or
loan agreement (which may involve an underwriting agreement in connection with a
public offering), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the parties
thereto, providing for (i) the issuance and sale by the Owner Trustee or such
other party as may be appropriate on the date specified in such agreement (for
the purposes of this Section 10.2, the "Refunding Date") of debt securities in
an aggregate principal amount (in the lawful currency of the United States)
equal to the principal amount of the Equipment Notes outstanding on the
Refunding Date, having the same maturity date as said Equipment Notes and having
a weighted average life which is not less than or greater than (in either case,
by more than three months) the Remaining Weighted Average Life of said Equipment
Notes, (ii) the application of the proceeds of the sale of such debt securities
to the prepayment of all such Equipment Notes on the Refunding Date, and (iii)
payment by Lessee to the Person or Persons entitled thereto of all other
amounts, in respect of accrued interest, any Make Whole Amount or other premium,
if any, payable on such Refunding Date;

          (b)  the Lessee and the Owner Trustee will amend the Lease in a manner
such that (i) if the Refunding Date is not a Rent Payment Date and the accrued
and unpaid interest on the Equipment Notes is not otherwise paid pursuant to
Section 10.2(a), the Lessee shall on the Refunding Date prepay that portion of
the next succeeding installment of Basic Rent as shall equal the aggregate
interest

accrued on the Equipment Notes outstanding to the Refunding Date, (ii)
Basic Rent payable in respect of the period from and after the Refunding Date
shall be recalculated to preserve the Net Economic Return which the Owner
Participant would have realized had such refunding not occurred, provided that
the net present value of Basic Rent shall be minimized to the extent consistent
therewith, and (iii) amounts payable in respect of Stipulated Loss Value,
Stipulated Loss Amount, Early Purchase Price, Termination Value and Termination
Amount from and after the Refunding Date shall be appropriately recalculated to
preserve the Net Economic Return which the Owner Participant would have realized
had such refunding not occurred (it being agreed that any recalculations
pursuant to subclauses (ii) and (iii) of this clause (b) shall be performed in
accordance with the requirements of Section 2.6 hereof);

          (c)  the Owner Trustee will enter into an agreement to provide for the
securing thereunder of the debt securities issued by the Owner Trustee pursuant
to clause (a) of this Section 10.2 in like manner as the Equipment Notes and/or
will enter into such amendments and supplements to the Indenture as may be
necessary to effect such refunding or refinancing, which agreements, amendments
and/or supplements shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to
the Owner Participant; provided that, no such agreement or amendment shall
provide for any increase in the security for the new debt securities; and
provided further that, notwithstanding the foregoing (but subject to the
provisions of clauses (a) and (b) and the lead in paragraph of this Section 10.2
above), the Lessee reserves the right to set the economic terms and other terms
not customarily negotiated between an owner participant and a lender of the
refunding or refinancing transaction except to the extent adversely affecting
cash flow, coverage ratios and reserve accounts as to the Owner Participant to
be so offered to the extent that they are passed through to the Lessee in, or
define rights or obligations of the Lessee under, the Operative Agreements;
provided, further, that no such amendment or supplement will in the sole
judgment of the Owner Participant increase its obligations or impair its rights
under the Operative Agreements or otherwise adversely affect it without the
consent of the Owner Participant;

          (d) (i) in the case of a refunding or refinancing involving a public
offering of debt securities, neither the Owner Trustee nor the Owner Participant
shall be an "issuer" for securities law purposes or an "obligor" within the

transactions contemplated hereby, except those obligations or duties of such

liable for performance by any other party hereto of such other party's

foregoing, under no circumstances whatsoever shall the Indenture Trustee or any

the part of the Owner Trustee in connection with the transactions contemplated

or gross negligence of the Owner Trustee, unless such action or inaction is at
the direction of the Indenture Trustee or any Participant, as the case may be,
and such action or inaction is expressly prohibited hereby.

<PAGE>
         (b) No Recourse to the Owner Trustee. It is expressly understood and
agreed by and between Trust Company, the Owner Trustee, the Lessee, the Owner
Participant, the Indenture Trustee, and the Loan Participant, and their
respective successors and permitted assigns that, subject to the proviso
contained in this Section 10.13(b), all representations, warranties and
undertakings of the Owner Trustee hereunder shall be binding upon the Owner
Trustee only in its capacity as Owner Trustee under the Trust Agreement, and
(except as expressly provided herein) Trust Company shall not be liable for any
breach thereof, except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct, or for
breach of its covenants, representations and warranties contained herein, except
to the extent covenanted or made in its individual capacity; provided, however,
that nothing in this Section 10.13(b) shall be construed to limit in scope or
substance those representations and warranties of Trust Company made expressly
in its individual capacity set forth herein. The term "Owner Trustee" as used in
this Agreement shall include any successor trustee under the Trust Agreement, or
the Owner Participant if the trust created thereby is revoked.

         (c) Extent of Interest of Holders of Equipment Notes. No holder of an
Equipment Note shall have any further interest in, or other right with respect
to, the mortgage and security interests created by the Indenture when and if the
principal of and interest on all Equipment Notes held by such holder and all
other sums payable to such holder hereunder, under the Indenture and under such
Equipment Notes shall have been paid in full. Each holder of the Equipment
Notes by its acceptance of an Equipment Note, agrees that it will look solely to
the income and proceeds from the Indenture Estate to the extent available for
distribution to such holder as provided in Article III of the Indenture and that
neither TILC, TRMI, the Lessee, the Owner Participant, the Indenture Trustee nor
the Owner Trustee shall be personally liable to any holder of the Equipment
Notes for any amounts payable under the Equipment Notes, the Indenture or
hereunder, except as expressly provided in the Operative Agreements.

         (d) Loan Participant's Source of Funds. It is expressly understood and
agreed by and between the Owner Trustee, the Lessee, the Owner Participant, the
Indenture Trustee and the Loan Participant, and their respective successors and
permitted assigns that, subject to the proviso contained in this Section
10.13(d), the undertakings of the Loan Participant hereunder are limited to the
application of the proceeds of the sale of the Pass Through Certificates to the
purchase by the Pass Through Trustee of the Equipment Notes; provided, however,
that nothing in this Section 10.13(d) shall be construed to limit in scope or
substance those representations and warranties of the Loan Participant made
expressly in its individual capacity set forth herein.

     Section 10.14 Maintenance of Non-Recourse Debt. The parties hereto agree
that if the Owner Trustee becomes a debtor subject to the reorganization
provisions

                                          Participation Agreement (TRLI 2001-1C)

<PAGE>
of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Section 101 et seq. (the "Bankruptcy Code") or
any successor provision, the parties hereto will make an election under
1111(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Bankruptcy Code. If (a) the Owner Trustee becomes a
debtor subject to the reorganization provisions of the Bankruptcy Code or any
successor provision, (b) pursuant to such reorganization provisions the Owner
Trustee is required, by reason of the Owner Trustee being held to have recourse
liability to the Pass Through Trustee or the Indenture Trustee, directly or
indirectly, to make payment on account of any amount payable under the Equipment
Notes or any of the other Operative Agreements and (c) the Indenture Trustee
and/or the Pass Through Trustee actually receives any Excess Amount (as
hereinafter defined) which reflects any payment by the Owner Trustee on account
of (b) above, then the Indenture Trustee and/or the Pass Through Trustee, as the
case may be, shall promptly refund to the Owner Trustee such Excess Amount. For
purposes of this Section 10.14, "Excess Amount" means the amount by which such
payment exceeds the amount which would have been received by the Indenture
Trustee or the Pass Through Trustee if the Owner Trustee had not become subject
to the recourse liability referred to in (b) above.

     Section 10.15 Ownership of and Rights in Units. The sale of the Units
described on Schedule 1 hereto and the Existing Equipment Subleases by TILC
contemplated hereby is intended for all purposes to be a true sale of all of
TILC's right, title and interest in and to such Units and the Existing Equipment
Subleases to the Lessee, which shall be the legal owner thereof upon such sale.
Upon consummation of the sale and leaseback transactions contemplated hereby,
the Lessee's interest in such Units is intended to be that of a lessee only. It
is intended that for federal and state income tax purposes the Owner Participant
will be the owner of such Units. The rights of the Indenture Trustee in and to
such Units pursuant to the Indenture is intended to be that of a secured party
holding a security interest, subject to the Lease and the rights of the Lessee
thereunder. No holder of an Equipment Note is intended to have any right, title
or interest in or to such Units except as a beneficiary of the Lien granted by
the Owner Trustee to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture in trust
for the equal and ratable benefit of the holders from time to time of the
Equipment Notes.

     Section 10.16 No Petition. Each party hereto agrees that, prior to the date
which is one year and one day after payment in full of all outstanding Equipment
Notes and all obligations of the Lessee under the Operative Agreements, release
of all Collateral held under the Collateral Agency Agreement and release of all
Equity Collateral held under the Equity Collateral Security Agreement (i) no
party hereto shall authorize the Lessee to commence a voluntary winding-up or
other voluntary case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or
other relief with respect to the Lessee or its debts under any bankruptcy,
insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction
or seeking the appointment of an administrator, a trustee, receiver, liquidator,
custodian or other similar official of the

or to the appointment of or taking possession by any such official in an
involuntary case or other proceeding commenced against the Lessee, or to make a
general assignment for the benefit of any party hereto or any other creditor of
the Lessee, and (ii) none of the parties hereto shall commence or join with any
other Person in commencing any proceeding against the Lessee under any
bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation or insolvency law or statute now or
hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto agrees that,
prior to the date which is one year and one day after the payment in full of all
outstanding Equipment Notes and all obligations of the Lessee under the
Operative Agreements, release of all Collateral held under the Collateral Agency
Agreement and release of all Equity Collateral held under the Equity Collateral
Security Agreement, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in
instituting against, Lessee an action in bankruptcy, reorganization,
arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or similar proceeding under
the laws of the United States or any state of the United States.

     Section 10.17 Consent To Jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally:

            (i) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or
proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Operative Agreement or for
recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect hereof or thereof, to the
nonexclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, the
courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York,
and the appellate courts from any thereof;

            (ii) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in
such courts, and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the
venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or
proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim
the same;

            (iii) agrees that service of process in any such action or
proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified
mail (or any substantially similar form and mail), postage prepaid, to each
party hereto at its address set forth in Section 10.4 hereof, or at such other
address of which the other parties shall have been notified pursuant thereto;
and

            (iv) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect
service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right
to sue in any other jurisdiction.
