the positive difference, if any, between the amount being borrowed and the
amount being prepaid shall be requested by the Agent to be made available by
such Bank to the Agent as provided in Section 2.2(c).

Loan shall be payable in arrears on the last day of the Loan Period therefor.

or installment thereof (whether by acceleration or otherwise), such Loan or
installment shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof at a rate
per annum equal to the Interest Rate from time to time in effect for such Loan
(but not less than the interest rate in effect for such Loan immediately prior
to maturity) plus 1% per annum.

                  Section 3.7. Computation of Interest and Fees. (a) Interest on

the basis of a 360-day year (including with respect to the Loan Period for any
Loan, the first day but excluding the last day of such Loan Period) and interest
on Loans bearing interest based on the Base Rate shall be computed for the
actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a 365/366 day year, as the case

                  (b) For purposes of determining the Interest Rate of any Loan,
the "Applicable Margin" shall be the greater of (i) the difference between (x)

(ii) 0.50% per annum.

promptly advise each Bank) not less than five Business Days' (except in the case
of a prepayment of Prior Loans with a Loan, such notice shall be satisfied by
the delivery of an executed Loan Request no less than three Business Days prior
to such Loan's Funding Date) prior irrevocable notice thereof specifying the
Loans to be voluntarily prepaid and the date and amount of prepayment, (c) any
prepayment of principal of any Loan shall include accrued interest to the date
of prepayment on the principal amount being prepaid, together with any other
amounts due and payable hereunder, (d) any prepayment of a Loan shall be subject
to the provisions of Section 6.4, (e) any prepayment of principal of any Loan
made during the Amortization Period shall be applied to installments thereof in
inverse order of maturity and (f) any prepayment shall be applied by the Agent
to the Loans on a pro rata basis (or as otherwise specified by the Borrower).

                  Section 4.3. Mandatory Prepayment. (a) The parties agree that
in connection with any Event of Loss pursuant to Section 3.04(a)(iv), permanent
requisition pursuant to Section 3.04(a)(v) of the Security Trust Agreement,
Aircraft Sale pursuant to Section 3.04(a)(iii) of the Security Trust Agreement
or transfer or sale pursuant to Section 2.09(b)(ii) and (iii) of the Security
Trust Agreement, the provisions of Section 3.07(c) of the Security Trust
Agreement shall apply.

                  (b) With respect to any Loan, if the Borrower fails to comply
with any of the conditions subsequent set forth in Section 9.2, the Borrower
shall prepay such Loan, together with all accrued interest thereon and any other
amounts due and payable hereunder, immediately upon demand from the Agent.

                  SECTION 5. MAKING AND PRORATION OF PAYMENTS; SET-OFF; TAXES.

                  Section 5.1. Making of Payments. (a) Except as provided in
Section 2.2(d) and Section 5.1(b), payments (including those made pursuant to
Section 4.1) of principal of, or interest on, the Loans and all payments of fees
shall be made to the Agent in immediately available funds at its Payment Office
not later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the date due; and funds
received after that hour shall be deemed to have been received by the Agent on
the next following Business Day. The Agent shall promptly remit to each Bank its
share (if any) of each such payment. All payments under Section 6 shall be made
promptly by the Borrower directly to the Persons entitled thereto.

                  (b) Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that
notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, certain payments due from the
Borrower to the Agent and the Banks are required to be paid to the Security
Trustee for disbursement to the Agent and Banks in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the Security Trust Agreement. The Borrower shall be relieved of
its obligations to make such payments only to the extent that the amount paid to
the Security Trustee is sufficient to pay all amounts then required to be paid
to the Agent and the Banks in full after giving effect to all payments then
required by the Security Trust Agreement to be made prior to or pari passu with
such amounts.

                  Section 5.2.  Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing.

                  (a) Except as required pursuant to Section 6 or Section 12.16,
each payment or prepayment of principal of any Loans, each payment of interest
on the Loans, and each payment of the commitment fee shall be allocated pro rata
among the Banks in accordance with their respective Percentages.

                  (b) Subject to Section 3.08 of the Security Trust Agreement
(which each Bank hereby acknowledges and agrees to), if any Bank or other holder
of a Loan shall obtain any payment or other recovery (whether voluntary,
involuntary, by application of offset or otherwise) on account of principal of,
interest on or fees or other amounts with respect to any Loan in excess of the
share of payments and other recoveries (exclusive of payments or recoveries
under Section 6 or Section 12.16) such Bank or other holder would have received
if such payment had been distributed pursuant to the provisions of Section
5.2(a), such Bank or other holder shall purchase from the other Banks or
holders, in a manner to be specified by the Agent, such participations in the
Loans held by them as shall be necessary so that all such payments of principal
and interest with respect to the Loans shall be shared by the Banks and other
holders pro rata in accordance with their respective Percentages; provided,
however, that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is
thereafter recovered from such purchasing Bank or holder, the purchase shall be
rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but
without interest.

                  Section 5.3. Set-off. The Borrower agrees that the Agent, each
Bank, each Assignee and each Participant has all rights of set-off and bankers'
lien provided by applicable law, and the Borrower further agrees that at any
time (a) any amount owing by the Borrower under this Agreement is due to any
such Person or (b) any Event of Default exists, each such Person may, subject to
the provisions of Section 5.2(b), apply to the payment of any amount payable
hereunder any and all balances, credits, deposits, accounts or moneys of the
Borrower then or thereafter with such Person.

                  Section 5.4.  Taxes, etc.

                  (a) All payments made by the Borrower to the Agent, any Bank,
any Assignee or any Participant under this Agreement and the Notes (if any)
shall be made without any set-off or counterclaim, and free and clear of and
without deduction for or on account of any present or future Covered Taxes now
or hereafter imposed (except to the extent that such withholding or deduction
(x) is compelled by law, (y) results from the breach, by the recipient of a
payment, of its agreement contained in Section 5.4(b), Section 5.4(c) or Section
5.4(e) or (z) would not be required if the representation or warranty contained
in the second sentence of Section 5.4(b) were true as of the date of this
Agreement, or with respect to a Bank that becomes a Bank pursuant to Section
12.3.1, Section 12.3.2 or Section 12.16, true at the time such Bank becomes a
Bank hereunder). If the Borrower is compelled by law to make any such deductions
or withholdings of any Covered Taxes it will:

                  (i) pay to the relevant authorities the full amount required
         to be so withheld or deducted,

                                Credit Agreement

<PAGE>

                                      -16-

                  (ii) except to the extent that such withholding or deduction
         results from the breach by the recipient of its agreement contained in
         Section 5.4(b), Section 5.4(c) or Section 5.4(e) or, if applicable,
         would not be required if the representation or warranty contained in
         the second sentence of Section 5.4(b) were true as of the date of this
         Agreement, or with respect to a Bank that becomes a Bank pursuant to
         Section 12.3.1, Section 12.3.2 or Section 12.16, true at the time such
         Bank becomes a Bank hereunder, pay such additional amounts as may be
         necessary in order that the net amount received by the Agent, each
         Bank, each Assignee and each Participant after such deductions or
         withholdings (including any required deduction or withholding on such
         additional amounts) shall equal the amount such payee would have
         received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, and

                  (iii) promptly forward to the Agent (for delivery to such
         payee) an official receipt or other documentation satisfactory to the
         Agent evidencing such payment to such authorities.

                  Moreover, if any Covered Taxes are directly asserted against
the Agent, any Bank, any Assignee or any Participant, such payee may pay such
Covered Taxes, and, upon receipt of an official receipt or other satisfactory
documentation evidencing such payment, the Borrower shall promptly pay such
additional amount (including, without limitation, any penalties, interest or
reasonable expenses) as may be necessary in order that the net amount received
by such payee after the payment of such Covered Taxes (including any Covered
Taxes on such additional amount) shall equal the amount such payee would have
received had no such Covered Taxes been asserted (provided, that the Agent, the
Banks, and any Assignee or Participant shall use reasonable efforts, to the
extent consistent with applicable laws and regulations, to minimize to the
extent possible any such Covered Taxes if they can do so without material cost
or legal or regulatory disadvantage). For purposes of this Section 5.4, a
distribution hereunder by the Agent or any Bank to or for the account of any
Bank, Assignee or Participant shall be deemed to be a payment by the Borrower.
The Borrower's agreement under this Section 5.4 shall survive repayment of the
Loans, cancellation of any Notes or any termination of this Agreement.

                  (b) In consideration of, and as a condition to, the Borrower's
undertakings in Section 5.4(a), each Bank other than a Bank that is organized
and existing under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof
or the District of Columbia (a "Non-U.S. Bank") agrees to execute and deliver to
the Agent at its Payment Office for delivery to the Borrower, before the first
scheduled payment date in each year, (i) to the extent it acts for its own
account with respect to any portion of any sums paid or payable to such Non-U.S.
Bank under this Agreement, two original copies of United States Internal Revenue
Service Forms W-8BEN, W-8ECI or W-8EXP (or any successor forms), as appropriate,
properly completed and duly executed

                                Credit Agreement

<PAGE>

                                      -17-

by such Non-U.S. Bank, and claiming complete exemption from withholding and
deduction of United States Federal Taxes, (ii) to the extent it does not act or
has ceased to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any sums
paid or payable to such Bank under this Agreement (for example, in the case of a
typical participation by such Non-U.S. Bank), (1) for the portion of any such
sums paid or payable with respect to which such Non-U.S. Bank acts for its own
account, two original copies of the forms or statements required to be provided
by such Non-U.S. Bank under subsection (i) of this Section 5.4(b), properly
completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Bank and claiming complete
exemption from withholding and deduction of United States Federal Taxes, and (2)
for the portion of any such sums paid or payable with respect to which such
Non-U.S. Bank does not act or has ceased to act for its own account, two
original copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any
successor forms), properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Bank,
together with any information, if any, such Non-U.S. Bank chooses to transmit
with such form, and any other certificate or statement of exemption required
under the Code or the regulations issued thereunder. Each Bank hereby represents
and warrants to the Borrower that, at the date of this Agreement, or at the time
such Bank becomes a Bank hereunder, it is entitled to receive payments of
principal and interest hereunder without deduction for or on account of any
Taxes imposed by the United States of America or any political subdivision
thereof and (iii) acknowledges that in the event that after the date of this
Agreement or after the date that a Bank becomes a Bank hereunder, such Bank is
no longer entitled to receive payments or principal and interest hereunder
without deduction for or on account of any Taxes imposed by the United States of
America or any political subdivision thereof, such Bank will be subject to
removal pursuant to Section 12.16.

                  (c) Each Non-U.S. Bank hereby agrees, from time to time after
the initial delivery by such Non-U.S. Bank of any forms or other information
pursuant to Section 5.4(b), whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances
renders such forms, certificates or other evidence so delivered obsolete or
inaccurate in any material respect, that such Non-U.S. Bank shall promptly (and
in all events, prior to the next applicable payment date), deliver to the Agent
at the Payment Office for delivery to the Borrower two original copies of any
renewal, amendment or additional or successor forms, properly completed and duly
executed by such Non-U.S. Bank, together with any other certificate or statement
of exemption required by applicable law or regulation in order to (i) confirm or
establish such Non-U.S. Bank's complete exemption from withholding and deduction
of United States Federal Taxes with respect to payments to such Bank under this
Agreement or (ii) in the case of a change in law after the date on which such
Non-U.S. Bank became a Bank hereunder that results in a withholding or deduction
of United States Federal Taxes on payments hereunder to such Non-U.S. Bank,
establish the status of such Non-U.S. Bank as other than a United States person
for United States Federal tax purposes and, to the extent entitled under an
applicable treaty or other law, claim the benefit of a reduced rate of
withholding and deduction of United States Federal Taxes with respect to any
such payments under an applicable tax treaty of the United States, or (iii) if
applicable, confirm or establish that such Non-U.S. Bank does not act for its
own account with respect to any portion of any such payments.

                  (d) If the Borrower determines in good faith that a reasonable
basis exists for contesting a Covered Tax with respect to which the Borrower has
paid an additional amount under this Section 5.4, the Agent and the Banks, as
applicable, shall, subject to Section 5.4(f), cooperate with the Borrower in
challenging such Covered Tax at the Borrower's expense if requested by the
Borrower (it being understood and agreed that neither the Agent nor any Bank
shall have any obligation to contest, or any responsibility for contesting, any
Tax). If the Agent or a Bank has actual knowledge that it is entitled to receive
a refund (whether by way of a direct payment or by clearly identifiable offset
to an amount otherwise owed to the relevant taxing authority) in respect of a
Covered Tax with respect to which the Borrower has paid an additional amount
under this Section 5.4, it shall promptly notify the Borrower of the
availability of such

                                Credit Agreement

<PAGE>

                                      -18-

refund (unless it was made aware of such refund by the Borrower) and shall,
within 30 days after the receipt of a request from the Borrower, apply for such
refund at the Borrower's expense. If the Agent or any Bank receives a refund
(whether by way of a direct payment or by clearly identifiable offset to an
amount otherwise owed to the relevant taxing authority) of any Covered Tax with
respect to which the Borrower has paid an additional amount under this Section
5.4 which, in the reasonable good faith judgment of the Agent or such Bank, as
the case may be, is allocable to such payment made under this Section 5.4, the
amount of such refund (together with any interest received thereon) shall be
paid to the Borrower, but only to the extent of the additional amounts received
from the Borrower, provided that, in the case of a Covered Tax the Borrower was
required to deduct and withhold under this Section 5.4, the Borrower deducted
and withheld such Covered Tax in full as and when required pursuant to this
Section 5.4, provided further, that if such refund subsequently becomes
unavailable or must be returned, this will be treated as a Covered Tax
indemnifiable under this Section 5.4.

                  (e) Each Bank that is organized and existing under the laws of
the United States of America or any state thereof or the District of Columbia (a
"U.S. Bank") agrees to execute and deliver to the Agent at the Payment Office
for delivery to the Borrower, on or before the date of this Agreement or on or
before the date such Bank becomes a Bank hereunder and on or before the date on
which such Bank ceases to act for its own account with respect to the applicable
portion of any sums paid or payable to such U.S. Bank and before the first
scheduled payment date in each subsequent year a copy of United States Internal
Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor forms) properly completed and duly
executed by such U.S. Bank, and claiming that it is organized and existing under
the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof or the District of
Columbia.

                  (f) Nothing contained in this Section 5.4 shall require any
Bank to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its
taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

                  (g) Each Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent
of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which
will entitle such Bank to receipt of additional amounts pursuant to this Section
5.4 and will designate a different Funding Office if such designation will avoid
the need for, or reduce the amount of, such amounts and will not, in such Bank's
sole discretion, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank.

                  SECTION 6. INCREASED COSTS AND SPECIAL PROVISIONS FOR THE
                             LOANS.

                  Section 6.1.  Increased Costs.

                  (a) If after the date hereof, the adoption of any applicable
law, rule or regulation, or any change therein, or any change in the
interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central
bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration
thereof, or compliance by any Bank (or any Funding Office of such Bank) with any
request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
authority, central bank or comparable agency,

                                      -19-

                  (A) shall subject any Bank (or any Funding Office of such
         Bank) to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to its LIBOR Loans,
         its Notes (if any) or its obligation to make LIBOR Loans, or shall
         change the basis of taxation of payments to any Bank (or any Funding
         Office of such Bank) of the principal of or interest on its LIBOR Loans
         or any other amounts due under this Agreement in respect of its LIBOR
         Loans or its obligation to make LIBOR Loans (except for changes in the
         rate of tax on the overall net income of such Bank or its Funding
         Office imposed by any Governmental Authority of the country in which
         such Bank is incorporated or in which such Bank's Funding Office is
         located);

                  (B) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve
         (including, without limitation, any reserve imposed by the Board of
         Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding any reserve
         included in the determination of additional interest pursuant to
         Section 3.6), special deposit, assessment (including any assessment for
         insurance of deposits) or similar requirement against assets of,
         deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Bank
         (or any Funding Office of such Bank); or

                  (C) shall impose on any Bank (or any Funding Office of such
         Bank) any other condition affecting its LIBOR Loans, its Notes (if any)
         or its obligation to make or maintain LIBOR Loans;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to (or to impose
an additional cost on) such Bank (or any Funding Office of such Bank) of making
or maintaining any LIBOR Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or
receivable by such Bank (or such Bank's Funding Office) under this Agreement or
under its Notes (if any) with respect thereto, then within 10 days after demand
by such Bank (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the
basis of such demand), the Borrower shall pay directly to such Bank such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank for such increased
cost or such reduction (without duplication of any amounts which have been paid
or reimbursed).

                  (b) If, after the date hereof, any Bank shall determine that
the adoption, effectiveness or phase-in of any applicable law, rule, guideline
or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change
in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority,
central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof, or compliance by any Bank (or any Funding Office of such
Bank or any Person controlling such Bank) with any request or directive
regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of
reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Bank or any Person
controlling such Bank as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level
below that which such Bank or such controlling Person could have achieved but
for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Bank's
or such controlling Person's policies with respect to capital adequacy), then,
from time to time, within 10 days after demand by such Bank (which demand shall
be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis of such demand), the
Borrower shall pay directly to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as
will compensate such Bank or such controlling Person for such reduction.

<PAGE>

                                      -20-

                  (c) Each Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent
of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which
will entitle such Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section 6.1 and will
designate a different Funding Office if such designation will avoid the need
for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in such Bank's
sole judgment, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank.

                  Section 6.2. Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or
Unfair. If with respect to the Loan Period for any LIBOR Loan:

                  (a) the Reference Agent advises the Agent that the Reference
         Agent has determined (which determination shall be binding and
         conclusive on all parties) that, by reason of circumstances affecting
         the LIBOR market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for
         ascertaining LIBOR; or

                  (b) the Required Banks advise the Agent that the Interest Rate
         as determined by the Agent with reference to LIBOR will not adequately
         and fairly reflect the cost to such Required Banks of maintaining or
         funding Loans for such Loan Period, or that the making or funding of
         Loans has become impracticable as a result of an event occurring after
         the date of this Agreement which in such Required Banks' opinion
         materially affects Loans,

then (i) the Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower, the Banks, the Indenture
Trustee and the Security Trustee thereof and of the Base Rate in effect at such
time and (ii) so long as such circumstances shall continue, such Loan shall bear
interest at a floating rate per annum based on the Base Rate and no Bank shall
be under any obligation to make any Loan based on LIBOR, but shall make Loans
hereunder based on the Base Rate.

                  Section 6.3. Changes in Law Rendering Certain Loans Unlawful.
In the event that any change in (including the adoption of any new) applicable
laws or regulations, or in the interpretation of applicable laws or regulations
by any Governmental Authority or other regulatory body charged with the
administration thereof, should make it (or in the good faith judgment of such
Bank raise a substantial question as to whether it is) unlawful for a Bank to
make, maintain or fund any LIBOR Loan, then (a) such Bank shall promptly notify
each of the other parties hereto, (b) upon the effectiveness of such event and
so long as such unlawfulness shall continue, the obligation of such Bank to make
LIBOR Loans shall be suspended and any request by the Borrower for Loans shall,
as to such Bank, be deemed a request for a Loan based on the Base Rate, (c) on
the last day of the current Loan Period for such Bank's Loans (or, in any event,
if such Bank so requests on such earlier date as may be required by the relevant
law, regulation or interpretation) such Bank's Loans shall cease to be
maintained as LIBOR Loans and shall thereafter bear interest at a floating rate
per annum based on the Base Rate and (d) no Bank shall be under any obligation
to make any Loan based on LIBOR, but shall make Loans hereunder based on the
Base Rate. If at any time the event giving rise to such unlawfulness shall no
longer exist, then such Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent.

                  Section 6.4. Funding Losses. The Borrower hereby agrees that
upon demand by any Bank (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement
setting forth the basis for the calculations of the amount being claimed) the
Borrower will indemnify such Bank against any

                                Credit Agreement

<PAGE>

                                      -21-

net loss or expense which such Bank may sustain or incur (including, without
limitation, any net loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or
reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Bank to fund or
maintain any LIBOR Loan), as reasonably determined by such Bank, as a result of
(a) any payment or mandatory or voluntary prepayment (including, without
limitation, any payment pursuant to Section 6.3 or any payment resulting from
acceleration) of any LIBOR Loan of such Bank on a date other than the last day
of the Loan Period for such Loan or (b) any failure of the Borrower to borrow or
to pay or prepay any Loans on the originally scheduled Funding Date specified
therefor pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, any failure
to borrow resulting from any failure to satisfy the conditions precedent to such
borrowing) or the date specified for such payment or prepayment pursuant to this
Agreement or by notice pursuant hereto, as the case may be. For this purpose,
all notices to the Agent pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be
irrevocable and the Agent shall provide a copy thereof to the Security Trustee.

                  Section 6.5. Discretion of Banks as to Manner of Funding.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary (but subject to
Section 6.1(c)), each Bank shall be entitled to fund and maintain its funding of
all or any part of its Loans in any manner it sees fit, it being understood,
however, that for the purposes of this Agreement all determinations hereunder
shall be made as if such Bank had actually funded and maintained each Loan
during the Loan Period for such Loan through the purchase of deposits having a
maturity corresponding to such Loan Period and bearing an interest rate equal to
the rate borne by such Loan for such Loan Period.

                  Section 6.6. Conclusiveness of Statements; Survival of
Provisions. Determinations and statements of any Bank pursuant to this Section 6
shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error, and each Bank may use reasonable
averaging and attribution methods in determining compensation pursuant to
Section 6.1 or 6.4. The provisions of this Section 6 shall survive termination
of this Agreement and payment of the Loans.

                  SECTION 7. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

                  (a) To induce the Banks to enter into this Agreement and to
make Loans hereunder, the Borrower hereby makes to the Agent and the Banks each
of the representations and warranties contained in Exhibit C, which
representations and warranties shall survive the execution and delivery of this

         provision of this Agreement (and not constituting an Event of Default
         under any of the other provisions of this Section 10.1) and continuance
         of such failure for 90 days (or, if the Borrower failed to give notice
         of such noncompliance or nonperformance to the Agent within one

         to comply with or to perform any of its covenants in the Security Trust
         Agreement (and not constituting an Event of Default under any of the
         other provisions of this Section 10.1) and continuance of such failure
         for 90 days (or, if ILFC Rhino I LLC failed to give notice of such

         actual knowledge and the date ILFC Rhino I LLC gives such notice, but
         in no event less than one Business Day) after notice thereof to ILFC
         Rhino I LLC from the Security Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the
         Agent, any Bank or the holder of any Note.

                  10.1.4. Representations and Warranties. Any representation or
         warranty made by the Borrower herein or by ILFC Rhino I LLC in the
         Security Trust Agreement is untrue or misleading in any material
         respect when made or deemed made; or any schedule, statement, report,
         notice, or other writing furnished by the Borrower to the Agent or any
         Bank or by ILFC Rhino I LLC to the Security Trustee is false or
         misleading in any material respect on the date as of which the facts
         therein set forth are stated or certified; or any certification made or
         deemed made by the Borrower to the Agent or any Bank or by ILFC Rhino I
         LLC to the Security Trustee is untrue or misleading in any material
         respect on or as of the date made or deemed made;

                  10.1.5. Litigation. There shall be entered against the
         Borrower or any Borrower Subsidiary one or more judgments or decrees in
         excess of $50,000,000 in the aggregate at any one time outstanding for
         the Borrower and all Borrower Subsidiaries and all such judgments or
         decrees shall not have been vacated, discharged, stayed or bonded
         pending appeal within 60 days from the entry thereof, excluding those
         judgments or decrees for and to the extent to which the Borrower or any
         Borrower Subsidiary (a) is insured and with respect to which the
         insurer has not denied coverage in writing or (b) is otherwise
         indemnified if the terms of such indemnification are satisfactory to
         the Agent;

                  10.1.6. Collateral. There shall have been an impairment in any
         material respect of the security interest in the Collateral granted

                  10.1.10. ILFC Ownership. The Issuer or ILFC Rhino I LLC ceases
         to be 100% owned (directly or indirectly) by ILFC.

                  Section 10.2. Effect of Event of Default. If (a) an Event of
Default described in Section 10.1.2 shall have occurred, (b) any Guarantor Event
of Default described in Section 12(c) of the ILFC Guaranty shall have occurred
or (c) the Indenture Trustee shall have declared the Indenture Notes to be
immediately due and payable or the Indenture Notes shall otherwise have become
immediately due and payable, then the Commitments (if they have not theretofore
terminated) shall immediately terminate and all Loans and all interest and other
amounts due hereunder shall become immediately due and payable, all without
presentment, demand or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the
Borrower; and, in the case of any other Event of Default, the Agent may, and
upon written request of the Required Banks shall, declare the Commitments (if
they have not theretofore terminated) to be terminated and all Loans and all
interest and other amounts due hereunder to be due and payable, whereupon the
Commitments (if they have not theretofore terminated) shall immediately
terminate and all Loans and all interest and other amounts due hereunder shall
become immediately due and payable, all without presentment, demand or notice of
any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower. The Agent shall
promptly advise the Borrower, each Bank, the Guarantor, the Indenture Trustee,
the Servicer and the Security Trustee of any such declaration, but failure to do
so shall not impair the effect of such declaration.

                  The Banks agree that all remedies to be taken with respect to
(x) the Collateral shall be exercised by the Security Trustee acting in
accordance with the terms of the Security Trust Agreement and (y) the ILFC
Guaranty and any SPV Guaranty shall be exercised by the Security Trustee acting
in accordance with the terms of the ILFC Guaranty, such SPV Guaranty and the
Security Trust Agreement.

                  Upon the written direction of 100% of the Banks, the Agent
will, by written notice to the Borrower, the Indenture Trustee, the Guarantor,
the Servicer and the Security Trustee, rescind and annul any declaration made
pursuant to this Section 10.2 thereby annulling its consequences if: (i) there
has been paid to the Banks amounts sufficient to pay all overdue installments of
interest on the Loans, and the principal of the Loans that would have become due
other than by reason of such declaration of acceleration; (ii) the rescission
does not conflict with any judgment or decree; (iii) all Events of Default
(other than the Events of Default arising solely by reason of such acceleration)
have been cured or waived; and (iv) the acceleration of the Indenture Notes has
been rescinded pursuant to Section 5.02 of the Indenture.

                  SECTION 11. THE AGENT.

                  Section 11.1. Authorization. Each Bank and the holder of each
Loan or interest therein authorizes the Agent to act on behalf of such Bank or
holder to the extent provided herein and in the Security Trust Agreement and any
other document or instrument delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, and
to take such other action as may be reasonably incidental thereto and to appoint
Citibank North America Inc. as security trustee pursuant to Section 6.01 of the
Security Trust Agreement. Subject to the provisions of Section 11.3, the Agent
will take such action permitted by any agreement delivered in connection with
this Agreement as may be requested in writing by the Required Banks or if
required under Section 12.1, all of the Banks.

                                Credit Agreement

                                      -25-

The Agent shall promptly remit in immediately available funds to each Bank or
other holder its share of all payments received by the Agent for the account of
such Bank or holder, and shall promptly transmit to each Bank (or share with
each Bank the contents of) each notice it receives from the Borrower pursuant to
this Agreement.

                  Section 11.2. Indemnification. The Banks agree to indemnify
the Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the
Borrower), ratably according to their respective Percentages, from and against
any and all actions, causes of action, suits, losses, liabilities, damages and
expenses which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time
following the repayment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted
against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, or
any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions
contemplated hereby or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under or in
connection with any of the foregoing; provided, that no Bank shall be liable for
the payment to the Agent of any portion of such actions, causes of action,
suits, losses, liabilities, damages and expenses resulting from the Agent's or
its employees' or agents' gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without
limiting the foregoing, subject to Section 12.4 each Bank agrees to reimburse
the Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket
expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred by the Agent in such
capacity in connection with the preparation, execution or enforcement of, or
legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or
any amendments or supplements hereto or thereto to the extent that the Agent is
not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower. All obligations provided for
in this Section 11.2 shall survive repayment of the Loans, cancellation of the
Commitments and of the Notes (if any) or any termination of this Agreement.

                  Section 11.3. Action on Instructions of the Required Banks. As
to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement (including, without
limitation, enforcement or collection of the Loans) or in the Security Trust
Agreement, the Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take
any action, but the Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting or
refraining from acting upon the written instructions from (a) the Required
Banks, except for instructions which under the express provisions hereof must be
received by the Agent from all Banks and (b) in the case of such instructions,
from all Banks. In no event will the Agent be required to take any action which
exposes the Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement,
the Security Trust Agreement or applicable law. The relationship between the
Agent and the Banks is and shall be that of agent and principal only and nothing
herein contained shall be construed to constitute the Agent a trustee for any
holder of a Loan or of a participation therein nor to impose on the Agent duties
and obligations other than those expressly provided for herein.

                  Section 11.4. Payments. (a) The Agent shall be entitled to
assume that each Bank has made its Loan available in accordance with Section
2.2(c), unless such Bank notifies the Agent at its Notice Office prior to 11:00
a.m., New York City time, on the Funding Date for such Loan that it does not
intend to make such Loan available, it being understood that no such notice
shall relieve such Bank of any of its obligations under this Agreement. If the
Agent makes any payment to the Borrower on the assumption that a Bank has made
the proceeds of such Loan available to the Agent but such Bank has not in fact
made the proceeds of such Loan available to the Agent, such Bank shall pay to
the Agent on demand an amount equal to the amount of such Bank's Loan, together
with interest thereon for each day that elapses from and

                                Credit Agreement

<PAGE>

                                      -26-

including such Funding Date to but excluding the Business Day on which the
proceeds of such Bank's Loan become immediately available to the Agent at its
Payment Office prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, at the Federal Funds
Rate for each such day, based upon a year of 360 days. A certificate of the
Agent submitted to any Bank with respect to any amounts owing under this Section
11.4(a) shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error. If the proceeds of such
Bank's Loan are not made available to the Agent at its Payment Office by such
Bank within three Business Days after such Funding Date, the Agent shall be
entitled to recover such amount upon two Business Days' demand from the
Borrower, together with interest thereon for each day that elapses from and
including such Funding Date to but excluding the Business Day on which such
proceeds become immediately available to the Agent prior to 12:00 Noon, New York
City time, the Federal Funds Rate for each such day at based upon a year of 360
days. Nothing in this paragraph (a) shall relieve any Bank of any obligation it
may have hereunder to make any Loan or prejudice any rights which the Borrower
may have against any Bank as a result of any default by such Bank hereunder.

                  (b) The Agent shall be entitled to assume that the Borrower
has made all payments due hereunder from the Borrower on the due date thereof
unless it receives notification prior to any such due date from the Borrower
that the Borrower does not intend to make any such payment, it being understood
that no such notice shall relieve the Borrower of any of its obligations under
this Agreement. If the Agent distributes any payment to a Bank hereunder in the
belief that the Borrower has paid to the Agent the amount thereof but the
Borrower has not in fact paid to the Agent such amount, such Bank shall pay to
the Agent on demand (which shall be made by facsimile or personal delivery) an
amount equal to the amount of the payment made by the Agent to such Bank,
together with interest thereon for each day that elapses from and including the
date on which the Agent made such payment to but excluding the Business Day on
which the amount of such payment is returned to the Agent at its Payment Office
in immediately available funds prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, at the
Federal Funds Rate for each such day, based upon a year of 360 days. If the
amount of such payment is not returned to the Agent in immediately available
funds within three Business Days after demand by the Agent, such Bank shall pay
to the Agent on demand the amount calculated in the manner specified in the
preceding sentence. A certificate of the Agent submitted to any Bank with
respect to amounts owing under this Section 11.4(b) shall be conclusive absent
demonstrable error.

                  Section 11.5. Exculpation. The Agent shall be entitled to rely
upon advice of counsel concerning legal matters, and upon this Agreement and any
Note, security agreement, schedule, certificate, statement, report, notice or
other writing which it believes to be genuine or to have been presented by a
proper person. Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees
or agents shall (a) be responsible for any recitals, representations or
warranties contained in, or for the execution, validity, genuineness,
effectiveness or enforceability of, this Agreement, any Note or any other
instrument or document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (b) be
deemed to have knowledge of an Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default
until after having received actual notice thereof from the Borrower, the
Indenture Trustee or a Bank, (c) be under any duty to inquire into or pass upon
any of the foregoing matters, or to make any inquiry concerning the performance
by the Borrower or any other obligor of its obligations or (d) in any event, be
liable as such for any action taken or omitted by it or them, except for its or
their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agency hereby created

<PAGE>

                                      -27-

shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any
duties or obligations upon, the Agent in its individual capacity.

                  Section 11.6. Credit Investigation. Each Bank acknowledges,
and shall cause each Assignee or Participant to acknowledge in its assignment or
participation agreement with such Bank, that it has (a) made and will continue
to make such inquiries and has taken and will take such care on its own behalf
as would have been the case had the Loans been made directly by such Bank or
other applicable Person to the Borrower without the intervention of the Agent or
any other Bank and (b) independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any
other Bank, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed
appropriate, made and will continue to make its own credit analysis and
decisions relating to this Agreement. Each Bank agrees and acknowledges, and
shall cause each Assignee or Participant to agree and acknowledge in its
assignment or participation agreement with such Bank, that the Agent makes no
representations or warranties about the creditworthiness of the Borrower or any
other party to this Agreement or with respect to the legality, validity,
sufficiency or enforceability of this Agreement or any Note.

                  Section 11.7. CNAI and Affiliates. CNAI and each of its
successors as Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other
Bank and may exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were not
the Agent, and CNAI and any such successor and its Affiliates may accept
deposits from, lend money to and generally engage, and continue to engage, in
any kind of business with any of the Borrower or any Affiliate of any thereof as
if CNAI or such successor were not the Agent hereunder.

                  Section 11.8. Resignation. The Agent may resign as such at any
time upon at least 30 days' prior notice to the Borrower, the Servicer and the
Banks and shall deliver a copy of such notice to the Indenture Trustee and the
Security Trustee. In the event of any such resignation, Banks having an
aggregate Percentage of more than 50% shall as promptly as practicable appoint a
successor Agent from among the Banks reasonably acceptable to the Borrower (no
such acceptance being required if an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing). If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed, and shall have
accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Agent's giving of
notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Banks,
appoint a successor Agent from among the Banks reasonably acceptable to the
Borrower (no such acceptance being required if an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing), which shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of
the United States of America or of any state thereof or the District of Columbia
or under the laws of another country which is doing business in the United
States of America and having a combined capital, surplus and undivided profits
of at least $1,000,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent
hereunder by a successor agent (with a copy of such acceptance to be delivered
to the Indenture Trustee and the Security Trustee), such successor Agent shall
thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges
and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged
from all further duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring
Agent's resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 11 shall
inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while
it was Agent under this Agreement.

                  Section 11.9. The Register; the Notes.

                  (a) The Agent, acting on behalf of the Borrower, shall
maintain a register for the inscription of the names and addresses of Banks and
the Commitments and Loans of each Bank and each Financed Aircraft in respect of
which a Loan was made hereunder or in respect of which a Loan was prepaid with
the proceeds of a Loan made hereunder from time to time (the "Register"). The
Borrower, the Banks, and the Agent may treat each Person whose name is inscribed
in the Register as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The
Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Guarantor, the
Agent, any Bank or the Security Trustee at any reasonable time and from time to
time upon reasonable prior notice.

                  (b) The Agent shall inscribe in the Register the Commitments
and the Loans from time to time of each Bank, the amount of each Bank's
participation in outstanding Loans, the Financed Aircraft in respect of which
such Loan was made and each repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal
amount of the Loans of each Bank, the principal amount owing from time to time
by the Borrower in respect of each Loan to each Bank of such Loans and the dates
on which the Loan Period for each such Loan shall begin and end and the rate of
interest applicable to such Loan Period. Any such inscription shall be
conclusive and binding on the Borrower and each Bank, absent manifest or
demonstrable error; provided that failure to make any such inscription, or any
error in such inscription, shall not affect any of the Borrower's obligations in
respect of the applicable Loans. The inscription in the Register of the
principal amount owing from time to time by the Borrower in respect of each Loan
shall constitute an unconditional and irrevocable covenant by the Borrower in
favor of the Person whose name is so inscribed as the Bank in respect of such
Loan that the Borrower will make all payments of principal and interest in
respect of the Loan in accordance with this Agreement, make all other payments
required by this Agreement to be made by it in respect of such Loan and
otherwise perform all of its obligations under this Agreement in full and by the
due date.

                  (c) Each Bank shall record on its internal records the amount
of each Loan made by it and each payment in respect thereof; provided that in
the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Bank's records, the
inscriptions in the Register shall govern, absent manifest or demonstrable
error.

                  (d) If so requested by any Bank by written notice to the
Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) at least two Business Days prior to the
Closing Date or at any time thereafter, the Borrower shall execute and deliver
to such Bank (and/or, if so specified in such notice, any Person who is an
assignee of such Bank pursuant to Section 12.3.1 hereof) promptly after receipt
of such notice, a Note, appropriately completed, substantially in the form of
Exhibit A.

                  (e) After the occurrence of the Event of Default and upon the
written request of the Indenture Trustee to the Agent, the Agent shall make the
Register available for inspection by the Indenture Trustee.

                  SECTION 12. GENERAL.

                  Section 12.1. Waiver; Amendments. No delay on the part of the
Agent, any Bank, or the holder of any Loan in the exercise of any right, power
or remedy shall operate as a

                                      -29-

waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by any of them of any
right, power or remedy preclude other or further exercise thereof, or the
exercise of any other right, power or remedy. No amendment, modification or
waiver of, or consent with respect to, any provision of this Agreement or any

signed and delivered by the Agent and by Banks having an aggregate Percentage of
not less than the aggregate Percentage expressly designated herein with respect
thereto or, in the absence of such designation as to any provision of this
Agreement or any Note, by the Required Banks and if the same shall materially
adversely affect the holders of the Indenture Notes, unless the consent of the
Indenture Trustee is obtained with respect thereto, and then any amendment,
modification, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance

oploanswebadmin@citigroup.com. The Borrower agrees that the Agent may make the
Communications available to the Banks by posting the Communications on
Intralinks, Fixed Income Direct or a substantially similar electronic

distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure
and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such
distribution, (y) the Platform is provided "as is" and "as available", and (z)
neither the Agent nor any of its Affiliates warrants the accuracy or
completeness of the Communications, or the adequacy of the Platform and each
expressly disclaims liability for errors or omissions in the Communications or
the Platform. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING
ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE,
NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE
DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE AGENT IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE

to such Bank as provided above, agrees to provide to the Agent, promptly after
the date of this Agreement, an e-mail address for receipt of each notice to such
Bank that Communications have been posted on the Platform, and agrees that such
notice to such Bank of such posting shall constitute effective delivery of such
Communications to such Bank hereunder.

                  Section 12.3. Assignments; Participations. Each Bank may
assign, or sell participations in, its Loans and its Commitment to one or more
other Persons in accordance with this Section 12.3 (and the Borrower consents to
the disclosure of any information obtained by any Bank in connection herewith to
any actual or prospective Assignee or Participant):

                  12.3.1. Assignments. Any Bank may with the written consents of
         the Borrower and the Agent (which consents will not be unreasonably
         withheld or delayed) at any time assign and delegate to one or more
         Eligible Assignees (any Person to whom an

         all or any fraction of such Bank's Loans and Commitment (which
         assignment and delegation shall be of a constant, and not a varying,
         percentage of such assigning Bank's Loans and Commitment); each such
         assignment of a Bank's Commitment shall be in the minimum amount of
         $10,000,000 or in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof;
         provided, that any such Assignee will comply, if applicable, with the
         provisions contained in the first sentence of Section 5.4(b) and in
         Section 5.4(c), Section 5.4(d), Section 5.4(e) and Section 5.4(g) and
         shall be deemed to have made, on the date of the effectiveness of such
         assignment and delegation, the representation and warranty set forth in
         the second sentence of Section 5.4(b); and provided, further, that the
         Borrower and the Agent shall be entitled to continue to deal solely and
         directly with such assigning Bank in connection with the interests so
         assigned and delegated to an Assignee until such assigning Bank and/or
         such Assignee shall have:

                           (i) given written notice of such assignment and
                  delegation, together with payment instructions, addresses and
                  related information with respect to such Assignee,
                  substantially in the form of Exhibit E, to the Borrower and
                  the Agent;

                           (ii) provided evidence satisfactory to the Borrower
                  and the Agent that, as of the date of such assignment and
                  delegation, the Borrower will not be required to pay any
                  costs, fees, taxes or other amounts of any kind or nature with
                  respect to the interest assigned in excess of those payable by
                  the Borrower with respect to such interest prior to such
                  assignment;

                           (iii) paid to the Agent for the account of the Agent
                  a processing fee of $2,500;

                           (iv) surrendered to the Agent the Notes (if any)
                  issued to the assignor Bank (or certified that such Notes have
                  been lost, stolen or destroyed and indemnified the Agent in
                  respect thereof to the Agent's reasonable satisfaction); and

                           (v) provided to the Agent evidence reasonably
                  satisfactory to the Agent that the assigning Bank has complied
                  with the provisions of the last sentence of Section 11.6.

         Upon receipt of the foregoing items and the consents of the Borrower
         and the Agent, (x) the Assignee shall be deemed automatically to have
         become a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations
         hereunder have been assigned and delegated to such Assignee, such
         Assignee shall have the rights and obligations of a Bank hereunder and
         under the other instruments and documents executed in connection
         herewith and (y) the assigning Bank, to the extent that rights and
         obligations hereunder have been assigned and delegated by it, shall be
         released from its obligations hereunder. The Agent may from time to
         time (and upon the request of the Borrower or any Bank after any change
         therein shall) distribute a revised Schedule I indicating any changes
         in the Banks party hereto or the respective Percentages of such Banks
         and update the Register. Within five Business Days after the Borrower's
         receipt of notice from the Agent of the effectiveness

                                      -32-

         of any such assignment and delegation, if requested by the Assignee in
         accordance with Section 11.9, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to
         the Agent (for delivery to the relevant Assignee) new Notes in favor of
         such Assignee and, if the assigning Bank has retained Loans and a
         Commitment hereunder and if so requested by such Bank in accordance
         with Section 11.9, replacement Notes in favor of the assigning Bank
         (such Notes to be in exchange for, but not in payment of, the Notes
         previously held by such assigning Bank). Each such Note shall be dated
         the date of the predecessor Notes. The assigning Bank shall promptly
         mark the predecessor Notes, if any, "exchanged" and deliver them to the
         Borrower. Any attempted assignment and delegation not made in
         accordance with this Section 12.3.1 shall be null and void.

                  The foregoing consent requirement shall not be applicable in
         the case of, and this Section 12.3.1 shall not restrict, any assignment
         or other transfer by any Bank of all or any portion of such Bank's
         Loans or Commitment to (i) any Federal Reserve Bank (provided, that
         such Federal Reserve Bank shall not be considered a "Bank" for purposes
         of this Agreement) or (ii) any Affiliate of such Bank (provided, that
         the assigning or transferring Bank shall give notice of such assignment
         or transfer to the Agent and the Borrower). Further, the foregoing
         consent requirement of the Borrower shall not be applicable if an Event
         of Default has occurred and is continuing.

                  The Borrower, each Bank, and each Assignee acknowledge and
         agree that after receipt by the Agent of the items and consents
         required by this Section each Assignee shall be considered a Bank for
         all purposes of this Agreement (including without limitation Sections
         5.4, 6.1, 6.4, 12.4 and 12.5) and by its acceptance of an assignment
         herein, each Assignee agrees to be bound by the provisions of this
         Agreement (including without limitation Section 5.4).

                  12.3.2. Participations. Any Bank may at any time sell to one
         or more commercial banks or other Persons (any such commercial bank or
         other Person being herein called a "Participant") participating
         interests in any of its Loans, its Commitment or any other interest of
         such Bank hereunder; provided, however, that

                           (a) no participation contemplated in this Section
         12.3.2 shall relieve such Bank from its Commitment or its other
         obligations hereunder;

                           (b) such Bank shall remain solely responsible for the
         performance of its Commitment and such other obligations hereunder and
         such Bank shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the
         obligations of the Borrower hereunder, including the right to approve
         any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this
         Agreement (subject to Section 12.3.2(d) below);

                           (c) the Borrower and the Agent shall continue to deal
         solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank's
         rights and obligations under this Agreement;

                           (d) no Participant, unless such Participant is an
         Affiliate of such Bank, or is itself a Bank, shall be entitled to
         require such Bank to take or refrain from taking any

                                Credit Agreement

         action hereunder, except that such Bank may agree with any Participant
         that such Bank will not, without such Participant's consent, take any
         actions of the type described in the third sentence of Section 12.1;

                           (e) the Borrower shall not be required to pay any
         amount under Section 3.1, 5.4 or 6.1 that is greater than the amount
         which the Borrower would have been required to pay had no participating
         interest been sold;

                           (f) no Participant may further participate any
         interest in any Loan (and each participation agreement shall contain a
         restriction to such effect);

                           (g) to the extent permitted by applicable law, each
         Participant shall be considered a Bank for purposes of Section 5.4,
         Section 6.1, Section 6.4, Section 12.4 and Section 12.5 and by its
         acceptance of a participating interest in any Loan, Commitment or any
         other interest of a Bank hereunder, each Participant agrees (i) that it
         is bound by, and agrees to deliver all documentation required under,
         the provisions of Section 5.2(b) and Section 5.4 as if such Participant
         were a Bank, and (ii) it is not entitled to any benefits under Section
         5.4 or Section 6.1 unless it is in full compliance with all
         requirements imposed on Banks under any of those Sections; and

                           (h) such Bank shall have provided to the Agent
         evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Agent that such Bank has
         complied with the provisions of the last sentence of Section 11.6.

                  Any Bank (a "Granting Bank") may grant to a special purpose
funding vehicle organized under the laws of the United States of America or any
state thereof (a "SPV") of such Granting Bank, identified as such in writing
from time to time by the Granting Bank to the Agent and the Borrower, the option
to provide to the Borrower all or any part of its Loans that such Granting Bank
would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement;
provided, that (i) such SPV shall be deemed to be a Participant for purposes of
this Section 12.3.2, (ii) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any
SPV to make any Loan, (iii) if a SPV elects not to exercise such option or
otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Bank shall
be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof and (iv) the
Borrower shall not be required to pay any amount under Section 12.4 or 12.5 that
is greater than the amount which the Borrower would have been required to pay
had such SPV not provided the Borrower with any part of any Loan of such
Granting Bank. The making of a Loan by a SPV hereunder shall utilize the
Commitment of the Granting Bank to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were
made by such Granting Bank. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPV shall be
liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (any
indemnity, liability or other payment obligation, including but not limited to
any tax liabilities that occur by reason of such funding by the SPV, shall
remain the obligation of the Granting Bank). In furtherance of the foregoing,
each party hereto agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this
Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the
payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness
of any SPV, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in
instituting against, such SPV any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any
state thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything contrary

                                Credit Agreement

<PAGE>

                                      -34-

contained in this Section 12.3.2, any SPV may (i) with notice to, but without
the prior written consent of the Borrower and the Agent and without paying any
processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans
to the Granting Bank providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the
account of such SPV to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii)
disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its
Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety,
guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPV. This paragraph may not
be amended without the written consent of any SPV at the time holding all or any
part of any Loans under this Agreement (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed).

                  Section 12.4. Costs, Expenses and Taxes. The Borrower agrees
to pay on demand (a) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the
Agent (including the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel for
the Agent (and of local counsel, if any, who may be retained by said counsel)),
in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of
this Agreement, the Notes (if any), the other Operative Documents and all other
instruments or documents provided for herein or delivered or to be delivered
hereunder or under any of the other Operative Documents or in connection
herewith or therewith and (b) all out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including
reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses and allocated costs of staff
counsel) incurred by the Agent and each Bank in connection with the enforcement
of this Agreement, the Notes (if any), any of the other Operative Documents or
any such other instruments or documents. Each Bank agrees to reimburse the Agent
for such Bank's pro rata share (based upon its respective Percentage) of any
such costs or expenses incurred by the Agent on behalf of all the Banks and not
paid by the Borrower other than any fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel
for the Agent which exceed the amount which the Borrower has agreed with the
Agent to reimburse. In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay, and to hold the
Agent and the Banks harmless from all liability for, any stamp or other Taxes
which may be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of this
Agreement and the other Operative Documents, the borrowings hereunder, the
issuance of the Notes (if any) or the execution and delivery of any other
instruments or documents provided for herein or delivered or to be delivered
hereunder or in connection herewith. All obligations provided for in this
Section 12.4 shall survive repayment of the Loans, cancellation of the Notes (if
any) or any termination of this Agreement.

                  Section 12.5. Indemnification. In consideration of the
execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Agent and the Banks, the
Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, exonerate and hold each of the Banks, the
Agent, the Affiliates of each of the Banks and the Agent, and each of the
officers, directors, employees and agents of the Banks, the Agent and the
Affiliates of each of the Banks and the Agent (collectively herein called the
"Bank Parties" and individually called a "Bank Party") free and harmless from
and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, losses, liabilities,
damages and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees
and disbursements (collectively herein called the "Indemnified Liabilities"),
incurred by the Bank Parties or any of them as a result of, or arising out of,
or relating to (i) this Agreement, the Notes (if any), the other Operative
Documents, the Commitment or the Loans, (ii) the direct or indirect use of
proceeds of any of the Loans or any credit extended hereunder or (iii) the
possession, use, operation, condition, manufacture, design, registration and
maintenance of any Financed Aircraft, except for any such Indemnified
Liabilities arising on account of such Bank Party's gross negligence or willful
misconduct, and if and to the extent that the foregoing

                                Credit Agreement

<PAGE>

                                      -35-

undertaking may be unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower hereby agrees to
make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the
Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. The Borrower
agrees not to assert any claim against the Bank Parties on any theory of
liability for consequential, indirect, special or punitive damages arising out
of or otherwise relating to this Agreement and the Notes (if any) or any of the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the actual or proposed use of the
proceeds of the Loans. All obligations provided for in this Section 12.5 shall
survive repayment of the Loans, cancellation of the Notes (if any) or any
termination of this Agreement.

                  Section 12.6. Regulation U. Each Bank represents that it in
good faith is not relying, either directly or indirectly, upon any margin stock
(as such term is defined in Regulation U promulgated by the Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve System) as collateral security for the extension or
maintenance by it of any credit provided for in this Agreement.

                  Section 12.7. Extension. Not more than 20 Business Days nor
fewer than 5 Business Days prior to the Expected Principal Repayment Date, the
Borrower may, at its option, provide notice to the Agent of the Borrower's
election to extend the maturity of the Loans by an additional one-year period to
the Final Maturity Date, during which Amortization Period the Borrower shall be
required to repay the Loans in 12 equal monthly installments. The Borrower shall
provide such notice of exercise by means of a letter, addressed to each such
Bank and the Agent and delivered to the Agent, substantially in the form of
Exhibit F. Upon the Agent's receipt of an executed copy of such notice, the
maturity shall be so extended.

                  Section 12.8. Captions. Section captions used in this
Agreement are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction of this
Agreement.

                  Section 12.9. Governing Law; Severability. THIS AGREEMENT AND
EACH NOTE (IF ANY) SHALL BE A CONTRACT MADE UNDER, GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. All obligations of the
Borrower and the rights of the Agent, the Banks and any other holders of the
Loans expressed herein or in the Notes (if any) shall be in addition to and not
in limitation of those provided by applicable law. Whenever possible each
provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be
effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement
shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without
invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this
Agreement.

                  Section 12.10. Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may
be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties on
separate counterparts and each such counterpart shall be deemed to be an
original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the
same Agreement. When counterparts of this Agreement executed by each party shall
have been lodged with the Agent (or, in the case of any Bank as to which an
executed counterpart shall not have been so lodged, the Agent shall have
received facsimile or other written confirmation of execution of a counterpart
hereof by such Bank), this Agreement shall become effective as of the date
hereof and the Agent shall so inform all of the parties hereto.

                  Section 12.16. Removal of Banks; Successor Banks.

Borrower is required to make any deductions or withholdings or pay any
additional amounts, as contemplated by Section 5.4, (ii) on account of which the
Borrower is required to pay any additional amounts, as contemplated by Section
6.1 or (iii) for which it is illegal to make a Loan, as contemplated by Section
6.3, the Borrower may in its discretion, upon not less than 30 days' prior

Each such notice shall specify the date of such removal (which shall be a
Business Day and, if such Bank has any outstanding Loans, shall (unless
otherwise agreed by such Bank) be on the last day of the Loan Period for such
Loans), which shall thereupon become the scheduled Termination Date for such
Bank.

                  (b) In the event that any Bank is the subject of a notice of
removal pursuant to subsection (a) above, then, at any time prior to the
Termination Date for such Bank (a

"Terminating Bank"), the Borrower may, at its option, arrange to have one or
more other Eligible Assignees (which may be a Bank or Banks, or if not a Bank,
shall be acceptable to the Agent (such acceptance not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed), and each of which shall herein be called a "Successor
Bank") with the approval of the Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) succeed to all or a percentage of the Terminating Bank's
outstanding Loans, if any, and rights under this Agreement and assume all or a
like percentage (as the case may be) of such Terminating Bank's undertaking to
make Loans pursuant hereto and other obligations hereunder (as if no such notice
of removal had been given by the Borrower). Such succession and assumption shall
be effected by means of one or more agreements supplemental to this Agreement
among the Terminating Bank, the Successor Bank, the Borrower and the Agent. On
and as of the effective date of each such supplemental agreement (i) each
Successor Bank party thereto shall be and become a Bank for all purposes of this
Agreement and to the same extent as any other Bank hereunder and shall be bound
by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement in the same manner as any
other Bank and (ii) the Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of
the Agent a processing fee of $2,500 for each such Successor Bank which is not a
Bank.

                  (c) On the Termination Date for any Terminating Bank, such
Terminating Bank's Commitment shall terminate and the Borrower shall pay in full
all of such Terminating Bank's Loans (except to the extent assigned pursuant to
subsection (b) above) and all other amounts payable to such Bank hereunder
(including any amounts payable pursuant to Section 6.4 on account of such
payment); provided, that if an Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default
exists on the date scheduled as any Terminating Bank's Termination Date, payment
of such Terminating Bank's Loans shall be postponed to (and, for purposes of
calculating commitment fees under Section 3.4 and determining the Required Banks
(except as provided below), but for no other purpose, such Terminating Bank's
Commitment shall continue until) the first Business Day thereafter on which (i)
no Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default exists (without regard to any
waiver or amendment that makes this Agreement less restrictive for the Borrower,
other than as described in clause (ii) below) or (ii) the Required Banks (which
for purposes of this subsection (d) shall be determined based upon the
respective Percentages and aggregate Commitments of all Banks other than any
Terminating Bank whose scheduled Termination Date has been extended pursuant to
this proviso) waive or amend the provisions of this Agreement to cure all
existing Events of Default or Unmatured Events of Default or agree to permit any
borrowing hereunder notwithstanding the existence of any such event. In the
event that CNAI or its Affiliates shall become a Terminating Bank and only if
there are Banks hereunder other than CNAI, the Required Banks with the consent
of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed)
shall appoint another Bank or other Person as Agent, which shall have all of the
rights and obligations of the Agent upon the effective date of and pursuant to
an agreement supplemental hereto among the Borrower and the Banks, and thereupon
CNAI, as Agent, shall be relieved from its obligations as Agent hereunder, it
being understood that the provisions of Section 11 shall inure to the benefit of
CNAI as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent
under this Agreement. If no such successor Agent shall be appointed within 30
days of the Termination Date of the Agent, then the Agent shall, on behalf of
the Banks, appoint a successor Agent in accordance with the provisions set forth
in Section 11.8 for a resigning Agent.

                  (d) To the extent that all or a portion of any Terminating
Bank's obligations are not assumed pursuant to subsection (b) above, the
Aggregate Commitment shall be reduced on the applicable Termination Date and
each Bank's percentage of the reduced Aggregate Commitment shall be revised pro
rata to reflect such Terminating Bank's absence. The Agent shall distribute a
revised Schedule I indicating such revisions promptly after the applicable
Termination Date and update the Register accordingly. Such revised Schedule I
shall be deemed conclusive in the absence of demonstrable error.

                  (e) So long as the Terminating Bank is not CNAI, the Agent
agrees to use reasonable commercial efforts to assist the Borrower in locating
one or more commercial banks or other financial institutions to replace any
Terminating Bank prior to such Terminating Bank's Termination Date.

irrevocably and unconditionally guaranties, as primary obligor and not merely as
surety to the Guarantied Party, the due and punctual payment in full of all

whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, demand or otherwise (including
amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under
Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Section 362(a)). The term

borrowings, loans, debts, interest, fees, costs, expenses (including, without
limitation, legal fees and expenses of counsel and allocated costs of internal

or this Guaranty (collectively, the "COMPANY OBLIGATIONS").

                  Guarantor acknowledges that the Guarantied Obligations are
being incurred for and will inure to the benefit of Guarantor.

                                       7

<PAGE>

insolvency, receivership, reorganization, liquidation or arrangement of Company
(or, if interest on any portion of the Guarantied Obligations ceases to accrue
by operation of law by reason of the commencement of said proceeding, such
interest as would have accrued on such portion of the Guarantied Obligations if
said proceeding had not been commenced) shall be included in the Guarantied
Obligations because it is the intention of Guarantor and Guarantied Party that
the Guarantied Obligations should be determined without regard to any rule of
law or order that may relieve Company of any portion of such Guarantied
Obligations.

                  In the event that all or any portion of the Guarantied
Obligations is paid by Company, the obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall
continue and remain in full force and effect or be reinstated, as the case may
be, in the event that all or any part of such payment(s) is rescinded or
recovered directly or indirectly from Guarantied Party or any other Beneficiary
as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, and any such payments that
are so rescinded or recovered shall constitute Guarantied Obligations.

                  Subject to the other provisions of this Section 2, upon the
failure of Company to pay any of the Guarantied Obligations when and as the same
shall become due, Guarantor will pay without presentment or demand, or cause to
be paid, in cash, to Guarantied Party for the ratable benefit of Beneficiaries,
an amount equal to the aggregate of the unpaid Guarantied Obligations.

                  3.       GUARANTY ABSOLUTE; CONTINUING GUARANTY. The
obligations of Guarantor hereunder are irrevocable, absolute, independent and
unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance which constitutes a
legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety other than payment in full
of the Guarantied Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing and without
limiting the generality thereof, Guarantor agrees that: (a) this Agreement is a
guaranty of payment when due and not of collectibility; (b) Guarantied Party may
enforce this Agreement upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an
event of default under the Company Obligations notwithstanding the existence of
any dispute between Company and any Beneficiary with respect to the existence of
such event; (c) the obligations of Guarantor hereunder are independent of the
Company Obligations and the obligations of any other guarantor of obligations of
Company and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against
Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against Company or any of such
other guarantors and whether or not Company is joined in any such action or
actions; (d) Guarantor's payment of a portion, but not all, of the Guarantied
Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge Guarantor's
liability for any portion of the Guarantied Obligations that has not been paid;
and (e) Guarantied Party may enforce this Agreement irrespective of any
insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or dissolution, or any proceeding of the
Company or the Guarantor, including without limitation, rejection of the
Guarantied Obligations in such bankruptcy. This Agreement is a continuing
guaranty and shall be binding upon Guarantor and its successors and assigns, and
Guarantor irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Agreement as to future
transactions giving rise to any Guarantied Obligations.

                                       8

<PAGE>

                  4.       ACTIONS BY BENEFICIARIES. Any Beneficiary may from
time to time, without notice or demand and without affecting the validity or
enforceability of this Agreement or giving rise to any limitation, impairment or
discharge of Guarantor's liability hereunder, (a) renew, extend, accelerate or
otherwise change the time, place, manner or terms of payment of the Guarantied
Obligations, (b) settle, compromise, release or discharge, or accept or refuse
any offer of performance with respect to, or substitutions for, the Guarantied
Obligations or any agreement relating thereto and/or subordinate the payment of
the same to the payment of any other obligations, (c) request and accept other
guaranties of the Guarantied Obligations and take and hold security for the
payment of this Agreement or the Guarantied Obligations, (d) release, exchange,
compromise, subordinate or modify, with or without consideration, any security
for payment of the Guarantied Obligations, any other guaranties of the
Guarantied Obligations, or any other obligation of any Person with respect to
the Guarantied Obligations, (e) enforce and apply any security now or hereafter
held by or for the benefit of any Beneficiary in respect of this Agreement or
the Guarantied Obligations and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, or
exercise any other right or remedy that Guarantied Party or the other
Beneficiaries, or any of them, may have against any such security, as Guarantied
Party in its discretion may determine consistent with the Credit Facility, the
Indenture, and the Security Trust Agreement, including foreclosure on any such
security pursuant to one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not
every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable, and (f) exercise any
other rights available to Guarantied Party or the other Beneficiaries, or any of
them, under the Finance Documents, at law or in equity.

                  5.       NO DISCHARGE. This Agreement and the obligations of
Guarantor hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to
any limitation, impairment or discharge for any reason (other than payment in
full of the Guarantied Obligations), including without limitation the occurrence
of any of the following, whether or not Guarantor shall have had notice or
knowledge of any of them: (a) any failure to assert or enforce or agreement not
to assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation
of law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or
any right, power or remedy with respect to the Guarantied Obligations or any
agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any other guaranty of or security
for the payment of the Guarantied Obligations, (b) any waiver or modification
of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms or provisions of the
Company Obligations or any agreement or instrument executed pursuant thereto, or
of any other guaranty or security for the Guarantied Obligations, (c) the
Guarantied Obligations, or any agreement relating thereto, at any time being
found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect, (d) the
application of payments received from any source to the payment of indebtedness
other than the Guarantied Obligations, even though Guarantied Party or the other
Beneficiaries, or any of them, might have elected to apply such payment to any
part or all of the Guarantied Obligations, (e) any failure to perfect or
continue perfection of a security interest in any collateral which secures any
of the Guarantied Obligations, (f) any defenses, set-offs or counterclaims which
Company may assert against Guarantied Party or any Beneficiary in respect of the
Guarantied Obligations, including but not limited to failure of consideration,
breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord
and satisfaction and usury, and (g) any other act or thing or omission,

                                       9

Beneficiary in connection with the enforcement of or preservation of any rights
under this Agreement.

                  9.       FINANCIAL CONDITION OF COMPANY. No Beneficiary shall
have any obligation, and Guarantor waives any duty on the part of any
Beneficiary, to disclose or discuss with Guarantor its assessment, or
Guarantor's assessment, of the financial condition of Company or any matter or
fact relating to the business, operations or condition of Company. Guarantor has
adequate means to obtain information from Company on a continuing basis
concerning the financial condition of Company and its ability to perform its
obligations under the Company Obligations, and Guarantor assumes the
responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of
Company and of all circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the
Guarantied Obligations.

                  10.      REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Guarantor makes, for
the benefit of Beneficiaries, each of the following representations and
warranties:

                  (a)      Organization, etc. The Guarantor is a corporation

corporate Subsidiary is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation; each
other Subsidiary is an entity duly organized and validly existing under the laws

Subsidiary has the power to own its property and to carry on its business as now
being conducted and is duly qualified and in good standing as a foreign
corporation or other entity authorized to do business in each jurisdiction
where, because of the nature of its activities or properties, such qualification
is required, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing
could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  (b)      Authorization; Consents; No Conflict. The execution
and delivery by the Guarantor of the Guarantor Documents and the performance by
the Guarantor of its obligations under the Guarantor Documents (a) are within
the corporate powers of the Guarantor, (b) have been duly authorized by all
necessary corporate action on the part of the Guarantor, (c) do not necessitate
any approvals, authorizations, consents, registrations, notices, exemptions and
licenses (if any shall be required) not already received by the Guarantor from
Governmental Authorities and other Persons, except for any such approvals,
authorizations, consents, registrations, notices, exemptions or licenses
non-receipt of which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect, (d) do not and will not contravene or conflict with any provision of (i)
law, (ii) any judgment, decree or order to which the Guarantor or any Subsidiary
is a party or by which the Guarantor or any Subsidiary is bound, (iii) the
charter, by-laws or other organizational documents of the Guarantor or any
Subsidiary or (iv) any provision of any agreement or instrument binding on the
Guarantor or any Subsidiary, or any agreement or instrument of which the
Guarantor is aware affecting the properties of the Guarantor or any Subsidiary,
except with respect to (i), (ii) and (iv) above, for any such contravention or
conflict which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect and (e) do not and will not result in or require the creation or
imposition of any Lien on any of the Guarantor's or its Subsidiaries'
properties, except for liens under the Security Trust Agreement.

                  (c)      Validity and Binding Nature. The Guarantor Documents,
when duly executed and delivered will be the legal, valid and binding
obligations of the Guarantor, enforceable against the Guarantor in accordance
with their respective terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent
transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability
relating to or affecting creditors' rights and to general equity principles.

                  (d)      Financial Statements. The Guarantor's audited
consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2002, and unaudited
consolidated financial statements as at September 30, 2003, a copy of each of
which has been furnished to the Security Trustee, have been prepared in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of
America applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding fiscal year

from audit and year-end adjustments and fairly present the financial condition
of the Guarantor and its Subsidiaries as at such dates and the results of their
operations for the respective periods then ended.

                  (e)      Litigation and Contingent Liabilities. All Litigation
Actions, taken as a whole, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. Other than any liability incident to such Litigation Actions or
provided for or disclosed in any financial statements referred to in Section
10(d), neither the Guarantor nor any Subsidiary has any contingent liabilities
which are material to the business, credit, operations or financial condition of
the Guarantor and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

                  (f)      Employee Benefit Plans. Each employee benefit plan
(as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) maintained or sponsored by the Guarantor
or any Subsidiary complies in all material respects with all applicable
requirements of law and regulations. During the twelve-consecutive-month period
prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, (i) no steps have been
taken to terminate any Plan and no contribution failure has occurred with
respect to any Plan sufficient to give rise to a lien under Section 302(f) of
ERISA, (ii) no Reportable Event has occurred with respect to any Plan and (iii)
neither the Guarantor nor any ERISA Affiliate has either withdrawn or instituted
steps to withdraw from any Multiemployer Plan, except in any such case for
actions which individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect. No condition exists or event or transaction
has occurred in connection with any Plan which could reasonably be expected to
result in the incurrence by the Guarantor or any Subsidiary of any material
liability, fine or penalty (imposed by Section 4975 of the Code or Section
502(i) of ERISA or otherwise). Neither the Guarantor nor any ERISA Affiliate is
a member of, or contributes to, any Multiemployer Plan as to which the potential
withdrawal liability based upon the most recent actuarial report could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Guarantor
nor any Subsidiary has any material contingent liability with respect to any
post retirement benefit under an employee welfare benefit plan (as defined in
section 3(1) of ERISA), other than liability for continuation coverage described
in Part 6 of Title I of ERISA.

                  (g)      Investment Company Act. The Guarantor is not an
"investment company" or a company "controlled" by an "investment company",
within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

                  (h)      Public Utility Holding Company Act. Neither the
Guarantor nor any Subsidiary is a "holding company", or a "subsidiary company"
of a "holding company", or an "affiliate" of a "holding company" or of a
"subsidiary company" of a "holding company", within the meaning of the Public
Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended.

                  (i)      Regulation U. Neither the Guarantor nor any
Subsidiary is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the
business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin
stock (within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System).

                  (j)      Information.

                           (i)      All information with respect to the
Guarantor heretofore furnished by the Guarantor to the Security Trustee as of
the date hereof is, to the best of

                                       13

<PAGE>

the Guarantor's knowledge after due inquiry, true and accurate in every material
respect as of the date thereof, and none of such information contains any
material misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to
make such information not misleading.

                           (ii)     All information furnished by the Guarantor
to the Security Trustee on and after the date hereof shall be, to the best of
the Guarantor's knowledge after due inquiry, true and accurate in every material
respect as of the date of such information, and none of such information shall
contain any material misstatement of fact or shall omit to state any material
fact necessary to make such information not misleading.

                  (k)      Compliance with Applicable Laws, etc. The Guarantor
and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with the requirements of all applicable
laws, rules, regulations and orders of all Governmental Authorities (including,
without limitation, ERISA and all applicable environmental laws), except for
noncompliance that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. Neither the Guarantor nor any Subsidiary is in default under any
agreement or instrument to which the Guarantor or such Subsidiary is a party or
by which it or any of its properties or assets is bound, which default could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the business,
credit, operations or financial condition of the Guarantor and its Subsidiaries
taken as a whole. No Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing.

                  (l)      Insurance. Each of the Guarantor and each Subsidiary
maintains, or, in the case of any property owned by the Guarantor or any
Subsidiary and leased to lessees, has contractually required such lessees to
maintain, insurance with financially sound and reputable insurers to such extent
and against such hazards and liabilities as is commonly maintained, or caused to
be maintained, as the case may be, by companies similarly situated.

                  (m)      Taxes. Each of the Guarantor and each Subsidiary has
filed all tax returns which are required to have been filed and has paid, or
made adequate provisions for the payment of, all of its Taxes which are due and
payable, except such Taxes, if any, as are being contested in good faith and by
appropriate proceedings and as to which such reserves or other appropriate
provisions as may be required by generally accepted accounting principles in the
United States of America have been established and except where failure to pay
such Taxes, individually or in the aggregate, cannot reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  11.      COVENANTS. Guarantor agrees that, so long as any part
of the Guarantied Obligations shall remain unpaid or any Lender shall have any
commitment to lend under the Credit Facility, Guarantor will, unless the
Guarantied Party shall otherwise consent in writing, perform or observe, all of
the covenants set forth below:

                  (a)      Reports, Certificates and Other Information. Furnish

         shall be required of any of the foregoing unless the circumstance could
         reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  (b)      Non-Payment of Other Indebtedness for Borrowed Money.
Default in the payment when due (subject to any applicable grace period),

five days, in the case of interest, or 30 days, in the case of fees, or default
in the performance or observance of any obligation or condition with respect to
any such other Indebtedness if (x) the effect of such default (subject to any
applicable grace period) is to accelerate the maturity of any such Indebtedness
or (y) only so long as Loans are outstanding under the Credit Facility, if such
default (subject to any applicable grace period) permits the holder or holders
thereof, or any trustee or agent for such holders to cause such indebtedness to
become due and payable prior to its express maturity; provided, however, that
the aggregate principal amount of all Indebtedness as to which there has
occurred any default as described above shall equal or exceed $50,000,000.

consent or acquiescence, a trustee, receiver or other custodian is appointed for
the Guarantor or any Significant Subsidiary or for a substantial part of the
property of any thereof and is not discharged within 60 days; or any warrant of
attachment or similar legal process is issued against any substantial part of

Significant Subsidiary, and, if such case or proceeding is not commenced by the
Guarantor or such Significant Subsidiary it is consented to or acquiesced in by
the Guarantor or such Significant Subsidiary or remains for 60 days undismissed;
or the Guarantor or any Significant Subsidiary takes any corporate action to
authorize, or in furtherance of, any of the foregoing.

                  (d)      Non-Compliance with this Agreement. Failure by the
Guarantor to comply with or to perform any of its covenants herein or any other
provision of this Agreement (and not constituting an Event of Default under any
of the other provisions of this Section 12) and continuance of such failure for
60 days (or, if the Guarantor failed to give notice of such noncompliance or
nonperformance pursuant to Section 11(a)(iv) within one Business Day after
obtaining actual knowledge thereof, 60 days less the number of days elapsed
between the date the Guarantor obtained such actual knowledge and the date the
Guarantor gives the notice pursuant to Section 11(a)(iv), but in no event less
than one Business Day) after notice thereof to the Guarantor from the Security
Trustee.

                  (e)      Representations and Warranties. Any representation or
warranty made by the Guarantor herein is untrue or misleading in any material
respect when made or deemed made; or any schedule, statement, report, notice, or
other writing furnished by the Guarantor to the Security Trustee is false or
misleading in any material respect on the date as of which the facts therein set
forth are stated or certified; or any certification made or deemed made by the
Guarantor to the Security Trustee is untrue or misleading in any material
respect on or as of the date made or deemed made.

                  (f)      Employee Benefit Plans. The occurrence of any of the
following events, provided that such event would reasonably be expected to
require payment by the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of an amount in excess of
$10,000,000: (i) the institution by the Company or any ERISA Affiliate of steps
to terminate any Plan, (ii) the institution by the PBGC of steps to terminate
any Plan; or (iii) a contribution failure occurs with respect to a Plan
sufficient to give rise to a lien under Section 302(f) of ERISA securing an
amount in excess of $10,000,000.

                  (g)      Litigation. There shall be entered against the
Guarantor or any Subsidiary one or more judgments or decrees in excess of
$50,000,000 in the aggregate at any one time outstanding for the Guarantor and
all Subsidiaries and all such judgments or decrees shall not have been vacated,
discharged, stayed or bonded pending appeal within 60 days from the entry
thereof, excluding those judgments or decrees for and to the extent to which the
Guarantor or any Subsidiary (i) is insured and with respect to which the insurer
has not denied coverage in writing or (ii) is otherwise indemnified if the terms
of such indemnification are satisfactory to the Security Trustee.

Beneficiary may have under law or in equity, if any amount shall at any time be
due and owing by Guarantor to any Beneficiary under this Agreement, such

such notice being expressly waived), to set off and to appropriate and to apply
any and all deposits (general or special, including but not limited to
indebtedness evidence by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured)
and any other indebtedness of such Beneficiary owing to Guarantor and any other
property of Guarantor held by a Beneficiary to or for the credit or the account
of Guarantor against and on account of the Guarantied Obligations and
liabilities of Guarantor to any Beneficiary under this Agreement.

                  14.      AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. No amendment, modification,
termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any
departure by Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the
written concurrence of Guarantied Party and, in the case of any such amendment
or modification, Guarantor. Any such waiver or consent shall be effective only
in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.

                  15.      MISCELLANEOUS. It is not necessary for Beneficiaries
to inquire into the capacity or powers of Guarantor or Company or the officers,
directors or any agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any of them.

                  The rights, powers and remedies given to Beneficiaries by this
Agreement are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all
rights, powers and remedies given to Beneficiaries by virtue of any statute or
rule of law or in any of the Finance Documents or any agreement between
Guarantor and one or more Beneficiaries or between Company and one or more
Beneficiaries. Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay by any
Beneficiary in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair
any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor
shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.

                  In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement
shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of
such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby.

                  THIS GUARANTY AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF GUARANTOR,
GUARANTIED PARTY AND THE OTHER BENEFICIARIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND
SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE

                  17.      GUARANTIED PARTY AS AGENT.

Guarantied Party hereunder by the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders, the Credit
Facility Agent and the Lenders. Guarantied Party shall be obligated, and shall
have the right hereunder, to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or
refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking any
action, solely in accordance with this Agreement and the applicable Company
Obligations; provided that Guarantied Party shall exercise, or refrain from

with the provisions of the Finance Documents.

Guarantied Party under this Agreement, and (ii) take such other actions as may
be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor
Guarantied Party of the rights created hereunder, whereupon such retiring or
removed Guarantied Party shall be discharged from its duties and obligations
under this Agreement. After any retiring or removed Guarantied Party's
resignation or removal hereunder as Guarantied Party, the provisions of this
Agreement shall inure to its benefits as to any actions taken or omitted to be
taken by it under this Agreement while it was a Guarantied Party hereunder.

                  18.      LIMITATION ON CLAIMS AGAINST THE BENEFICIARIES. The
Guarantor agrees not to assert any claim against any of the Beneficiaries on any
theory of liability for

                                       24

consequential, indirect, special or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise
relating to this Guaranty, the Credit Facility, the Indenture, the Security
Trust Agreement, the Notes or the Loans or any of the transactions contemplated
hereby or thereby.
