PAYMENTS 5.1 [Intentionally Omitted]. 5.2 Rental Periods: The Term will be divided into Rental Periods. The first Rental Period (the "Interim Period") will commence on the Commencement Date and end on October 5, 1999, and each subsequent Rental Period will commence on the date succeeding the last day of the previous Rental Period. Each Rental Period will end on the date immediately preceding the numerically corresponding day in the next month except that: (a) if there is no such numerically corresponding day in that month, it will end on the last day of that month; (b) if a Rental Period would otherwise end after the Expiry Date, it will end on the Expiry Date. In addition to the foregoing, if a Rental Period begins on a non-Business Day, the Rent payable in respect of that Rental Period will be paid on the Business Day immediately succeeding the date on which that Rental Period commences. 5.3 Rent: (a) Time of Payment: Lessee will pay to Lessor or its order Rent in advance on each Rent Date. Payment must be initiated adequately in advance of the Rent Date to ensure that Lessor receives credit for the payment on the Rent Date.

If Lessor shall realize any Tax savings (by way of refund, deduction, credit or otherwise) in respect of any amount with respect to which Lessee has made an indemnity payment under this Agreement, and such Tax savings shall not have been taken into account previously in calculating any indemnity payment by Lessee, then Lessor shall, within 30 days after realizing such Tax savings, pay to Lessee the amount of such Tax savings (together with, in the case of a refund, any interest received thereon) plus the amount of any Tax savings realized by Lessor as a result of any such payment pursuant to this sentence, provided, however, that Lessor shall not be obligated to make any payment pursuant to this sentence to the extent that the amount of any Tax, savings for which such payment is to be made (other than Tax savings realized as a result of such -19- payment) would exceed the aggregate amount of all prior payments made by Lessee to, on behalf of, or as indemnification of Lessor under this Agreement for Taxes less the amount of all prior payments pursuant to this sentence for such Tax savings. It is intended that Lessor shall retain a net tax benefit in respect of any amount with respect to which Lessee has made an indemnity payment under this Agreement only if Lessee shall first have been reimbursed for all payments made or withheld by it for Taxes under this Agreement. 5.8 Value Added Tax: (a) For the purposes of this sub-clause: (i) "VAT" means value added tax and any sales or turnover tax, imposition or levy of a like nature (other than Lessor Taxes); (ii) "supply" includes anything on which VAT is chargeable; (b) Lessee will pay to Lessor the amount of any VAT chargeable in respect of any supply for VAT purposes under this Agreement; (c) Each amount stated as payable by Lessee under this Agreement is exclusive of VAT (if any) and is accordingly to be construed as a reference to that amount plus any VAT in respect of it. 5.9 Information: If Lessee is required by any applicable law, or by any third party, to deliver any report or return in connection with any Taxes, Lessee will complete the same in a manner satisfactory to Lessor and in particular will state therein that Lessee is exclusively responsible for the use and operation of the Aircraft and for any Taxes arising therefrom, and Lessee will, on request supply a copy of the report or return to Lessor. 5.10 Taxation of Indemnity Payments: (a) If and to the extent that any sums payable to Lessor by Lessee under this Agreement by way of indemnity are insufficient, by reason of any Taxes (other than Lessor Taxes) payable in respect to those sums, for Lessor, except with respect to Lessor Taxes, to discharge the corresponding liability to the relevant third party (including any taxation authority), or to reimburse Lessor for the cost incurred by it to a third party (including any taxation authority) Lessee will pay to Lessor such sum as will after the tax liability has been fully satisfied leave Lessor with the same amount as it would have been entitled to receive in the absence of that liability together with interest on the amount of the deficit at the rate of interest stated in Clause 5.11 in respect of the period commencing on the date on which the payment of taxation is finally due until payment by Lessee (both before and after judgment); (b) If and to the extent that any sums constituting (directly or indirectly) an indemnity to Lessor but paid by Lessee to any person other than Lessor are treated as taxable in the hands of Lessor, Lessee will pay to Lessor such sum as will after the tax liability (except tax liability for Lessor Taxes) has been fully satisfied indemnify Lessor to the same extent as it would have been -20- indemnified in the absence of such liability together with interest on the amount payable by Lessee under this sub-clause at the rate of interest stated in Clause 5.11 in respect of the period commencing on the date on which the payment of taxation is finally due until payment by Lessee (both before and after judgment). 5.11 Default Interest: If Lessee fails to pay any amount payable under this Agreement on the due date, Lessee will pay on demand from time to time to Lessor interest (both before and after judgment) on that amount, from the due date to the date of payment in full by Lessee to Lessor, at the rate calculated by Lessor to be one month Dollar LIBOR plus 300 basis points. All such interest will be compounded monthly and calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a 360 day year. 5.12 Contest: If Lessee disputes the payment of any Taxes payable by Lessor for which Lessee is responsible under this Agreement, Lessor will take such action as Lessee may reasonably request at Lessee's expenses to contest that payment but will not be obliged to take any such action: (a) which Lessor considers in its reasonable discretion may prejudice it unless Lessee shall have provided security reasonably satisfactory to Lessor to cover the liability for Taxes and the expense of the contest; or (b) which Lessor reasonably considers does not have a reasonable prospect of success; or (c) for which Lessee has not made adequate provision to the reasonable satisfaction of Lessor in respect of the expense concerned. 5.13 Absolute: Lessee's obligations under this Agreement are absolute and unconditional irrespective of any contingency whatsoever including (but not limited to): (a) any right of set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which either party to this Agreement may have against the other; (b) any unavailability of the Aircraft for any reason, including, but not limited to, a requisition of the Aircraft or any prohibition or interruption of or interference with or other restriction against Lessee's use, operation or possession of the Aircraft; (c) any lack or invalidity of title or any other defect in title, airworthiness, merchantability, fitness for any purpose, condition, design, or operation of any kind or nature of the Aircraft for any particular use or trade, or for registration or documentation under the laws of any relevant jurisdiction, or any Event of Loss in respect of or any damage to the Aircraft; (d) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, dissolution, liquidation or similar proceedings by or against Lessor or Lessee; (e) any invalidity or unenforceability or lack of due authorization of, or other defect in, this Agreement; -21- (f) any other cause which but for this provision would or might otherwise have the effect of terminating or in any way affecting any obligation of Lessee under this Agreement. The provisions of this Clause 5.13 shall not limit Lessee's right to take such legal action as Lessee shall deem appropriate as a consequence of the breach by Lessor of its obligations to Lessee under this Agreement. 5.14 [Intentionally Omitted]. 6. MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTIES 6.1 Assignment: Notwithstanding this Agreement, Lessor will remain entitled to the benefit of each warranty, express or implied, with respect to the Aircraft, any Engine or Part so far as concerns any manufacturer, vendor, subcontractor or supplier.

Lessee will use reasonable efforts to notify Lessor promptly upon becoming aware of any such claim. 6.2 Proceeds: Except to the extent Lessor otherwise agrees in a particular case, all proceeds of any such claim will be paid directly to Lessor but if and to the extent that such proceeds relate: (a) to defects affecting the Aircraft which Lessee has rectified; or (b) to compensation for loss of use of the Aircraft, an Engine or any Part during the Term; or (c) the costs incurred by Lessee in pursuing such claim; and provided no Default has occurred and is continuing the proceeds will be paid to Lessee by Lessor but in the case of (a) only on receipt of evidence satisfactory to Lessor that Lessee has rectified the relevant defect. 6.3 Parts: Except to the extent Lessor otherwise agrees in a particular case, Lessee will ensure that all engines, components, furnishings or equipment provided by the manufacturer, vendor, subcontractor or supplier in replacement of a defective Engine or Part pursuant to the terms of any warranty will be installed promptly by Lessee and that title thereto free of Security Interests vests in Lessor. On installation those items will be deemed to be an Engine or part as applicable. 6.4 Agreement: To the extent any warranties relating to the Aircraft are made available under an agreement between any manufacturer, vendor, subcontractor or supplier and Lessee, this Clause 6 is subject to that agreement. However Lessee will: (a) pay the proceeds of any claim thereunder to Lessor to be applied pursuant to Clause 6.2 and pending such payment will hold the claim and the proceeds in trust for Lessor; -22- (b) take all such steps as are necessary at the end of the Term to ensure the benefit of any of those warranties which have vested in Lessee (to the extent that they are assignable) which have not expired are vested in Lessor. 7.

INSURANCE 9.1 Insurances: Lessee will maintain in full force during the Term insurances in respect of the Aircraft in form and substance satisfactory to Lessor (the "Insurances" which expression includes, where the context so admits, any relevant re-insurance(s)) through such brokers and -34- with such insurers and having such deductibles and being subject to such exclusions as may be approved by Lessor. The Insurances will be effected either: (a) on a direct basis with insurers of recognized standing who normally participate in aviation insurances in the leading international insurance markets and led by reputable underwriter(s) approved by Lessor; or (b) with a single insurer or group of insurers approved by Lessor who does not retain the risk but effects substantial reinsurance with reinsurers in the leading international insurance markets and through brokers each of recognized standing and acceptable to Lessor for a percentage acceptable to Lessor of all risks insured (the "Reinsurances"). 9.2 Requirements: Lessor's current requirements as to required Insurances are as specified in this Clause and in Schedule 4. Lessor may from time to time stipulate other requirements for the Insurances so that the scope and level of cover is maintained in line with best industry practice and the interests of Lessor and each of the Indemnitees are protected; provided, however, that this Clause of itself will not permit Lessor to increase the levels of coverage required under this Agreement (but without prejudice to any other provisions of this Agreement). 9.3 Change: If at any time and on reasonable grounds Lessor wishes to revoke its approval of any insurer, reinsurer, insurance or reinsurance, Lessor and/or its brokers will consult with Lessee and Lessee's brokers (as for the time being approved by Lessor) regarding whether that approval should be revoked to protect the interests of the parties insured. If, following the consultation, Lessor considers that any change should be made, Lessee will then arrange or procure the arrangement of alternative cover satisfactory to Lessor. 9.4 Insurance Covenants: Lessee will: (a) ensure that all legal requirements as to insurance of the Aircraft, any Engine or any Part which may from time to time be imposed by the laws of the State of Registration or any state to, from or over which the Aircraft may be flown, in so far as they affect or concern the operation of the Aircraft, are complied with and in particular those requirements compliance with which is necessary to ensure that (i) the Aircraft is not in danger of detention or forfeiture, (ii) the insurances remain valid and in full force and effect, and (iii) the interests of the Indemnitees in the Insurances and the Aircraft or any Part are not thereby prejudiced; (b) not use, cause or permit the Aircraft, any Engine or any Part to be used for any purpose or in any manner not covered by the Insurances or outside any geographical limit imposed by the Insurances; (c) comply with the terms and conditions of each policy of the Insurances and not do, consent or agree to any act or omission which: (i) invalidates or may invalidate the Insurances; or -35- (ii) renders or may render void or voidable the whole or any part of any of the Insurances; or (iii) brings any particular liability within the scope of an exclusion or exception to the Insurances; (d) not take out without the prior written approval of Lessor any insurance or reinsurance in respect of the Aircraft other than those required under this Agreement unless relating solely to hull total loss, business interruption, profit commission and deductible risk.

(ii) confirmation of completion of renewal prior to each expiry date; (iii) certificates of insurance (and whether appropriate certificates of reinsurance), and broker's (and any reinsurance brokers') letter of undertaking in a form acceptable to Lessor in English, detailing the coverage and confirming the insurers' (and any reinsurers') agreement to the specified insurance requirements of this Agreement within 7 days after each renewal date; (f) on request, and if a Default shall have occurred, provide to Lessor copies of documents evidencing the Insurances; (g) on request, and if a Default shall have occurred, provide to Lessor evidence that the Insurance premiums have been paid; (h) not make any modification or alteration to the insurances material and adverse to the interests of any of the Indemnitees; (i) be responsible for any deductible under the Insurances; and (j) provide any other insurance and reinsurance related information, or assistance, in respect of the Insurances as Lessor may reasonably require. 9.5 Failure to Insure : If Lessee fails to maintain the Insurances in compliance with this Agreement, each of the Indemnitees will be entitled but not bound, (without prejudice to any other rights of Lessor under this Agreement): (a) to pay the premiums due or to effect and maintain insurances satisfactory to it or otherwise remedy Lessee's failure in such manner (including, without limitation to effect and maintain an "owner's interest" policy) as it considers appropriate. Any sums so expended by it will become -36- immediately due and payable by Lessee to Lessor together with interest thereon at the rate specified in Clause 5.11, from the date of expenditure by it up to the date of reimbursement by Lessee; (b) At any time while such failure is continuing to require the Aircraft to remain at any airport or to proceed to and remain at any airport designated by it until the failure is remedied to its satisfaction. 9.6 Continuing Indemnity : Lessor may require Lessee to effect and to maintain product liability insurance after the Expiry Date with respect to its liability under the Indemnification in Clause 10 for such period as Lessor may reasonably require (but in any event not more than 3 years) which provides for each Indemnitee to be named as additional insured. Lessee's obligation in this Clause shall not be affected by Lessee ceasing to be lessee of the Aircraft and/or any of the Indemnitees ceasing to have any interest in respect of the Aircraft. 9.7 Application of Insurance Proceeds : As between Lessor and Lessee: (a) all insurance payments received as a result of an Event of Loss occurring during the Tenn will be paid to Lessor or as it may direct and Lessor or its designee who received such payment will pay the balance of those amounts to Lessee after deduction of all amounts which may be or are payable by Lessee to Lessor under this Agreement (including under Clause 11.1(b)); (b) all insurance proceeds of any property, damage or loss to the Aircraft, any Engine or any Part occurring during the Term not constituting an Event of Loss and in excess of the Damage Notification Threshold will be paid to Lessor or as it may direct and applied to payment (or to reimburse Lessee) for repairs or replacement property upon Lessor being satisfied that the repairs or replacement have been effected in accordance with this Agreement. Insurance proceeds in amounts below the Damage Notification Threshold may be paid by the insurer directly to Lessee; (c) all insurance proceeds in respect of third party liability will, except to the extent paid by the Insurers to the relevant third party, be paid to Lessor or as it may direct to be paid directly in satisfaction of the relevant liability or to Lessee in reimbursement of any payment so made; (d) notwithstanding Clauses 9.7(a), (b) or (c), if at the time of the payment of any such insurance proceeds a Default has occurred and is continuing all such proceeds will be paid to or retained by Lessor or Lessor's designee to be applied toward payment of any amounts which may be or are payable by Lessee in such order as Lessor or Lessor's designee sees fit or as Lessor may elect. 10.

In the event that Lessee obtains a judgment against Lessor, Lessee shall be entitled to receive all costs and expenses (including legal costs) in connection therewith. 16.9 Expenses : Whether or not the Aircraft is accepted by Lessee pursuant to this Agreement, if -47- Lessor shall have tendered the Aircraft to Lessee pursuant to this Agreement, Lessee will pay to Lessor on demand: (a) all expenses associated with perfecting this Agreement in the State of Registration, the Habitual Base and other states having regard to the operation of the Aircraft (including, but not limited to, the provision of legal opinions (unless otherwise agreed between Lessor and Lessee) stamp duties, translations and registrations, whether required by Lessor or Lessee); and (b) upon the occurrence of a Default, all expenses (including legal, survey and other costs) payable or incurred by Lessor in contemplation of, or otherwise in connection with, the enforcement of or preservation of any of Lessor's rights under this Agreement, or in respect of the repossession of the Aircraft.
