Subject to Clause 2.1 and to the next succeeding paragraph of this Clause 4.4, the Security Deposit (whether in cash or evidenced by one or more letters of credit) shall only be returnable to Lessee in accordance with either paragraph 2.1.2 or 3.5 of Part 1 of Schedule 3, as applicable. -3- The Security Deposit shall be held by Lessor as security for the timely and faithful performance by Lessee of Lessee's obligations under the Relevant Documents, and Lessee hereby grants Lessor a security interest in all sums deposited with or otherwise held by Lessor under this Clause 4.4. Lessee agrees to execute and file with the appropriate Government Entities any and all documents necessary and reasonably requested by Lessor to evidence and perfect such security interest in favor of Lessor. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, in addition to all other rights Lessor shall have under applicable law, Lessor may, but shall not be obligated to use, apply, set-off or retain all or any portion of the Security Deposit, in payment for sums due by Lessee under the Relevant Documents, to reimburse Lessor for any sums advanced as a result of such Event of Default or to apply toward any losses or expenses Lessor actually incurs as a result of such Event of Default. If Lessor uses or applies all or any portion of such Security Deposit as provided above, such use or application shall not be deemed a cure of any Event of Default, and Lessee shall within five (5) Business Days after such use or application deposit with Lessor in cash an amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to the aggregate amount of such Security Deposit prior to Lessor's use or application. An Event of Default shall continue until the Security Deposit is restored and the failure of Lessee to do so within this period shall be a second, independent Event of Default. Provided that an Event of Default shall not have occurred and then be continuing and provided that Lessee shall have paid all amounts owing hereunder, the remaining balance of the Security Deposit held by Lessor shall be returned to Lessee in the form then being held by Lessor at the end of the Term following Lessee's return of the Aircraft in compliance with Clause 14, subject to Lessor being satisfied that it is entitled to retain all sums applied by it pursuant to this Clause 4.4 to sums due and payable under the Relevant Documents or the Other Leases. 4.5.

Subject to Clause 4.2, if any such amount is due to be paid on a day other than a Business Day, such amount shall be payable on the next succeeding Business Day and the amount thereof, if calculated by application of a per annum rate, shall be adjusted accordingly. Any payment of Rent not received in Lessor's bank account by 11:00 a.m. (at the place at which payment is to be made -4- in accordance with the foregoing) on the due date shall be treated as having been received on the next succeeding Business Day. 4.6. No Deductions or Withholdings Rent and all other amounts payable by Lessee to Lessor hereunder and under each of the Relevant Documents will be made in full without any deduction or withholding (whether in respect of set-off, counter-claim, duties, tax, charges or otherwise) unless a deduction or withholding is required by any applicable law, in which event Lessee will: (a) ensure that the deduction or withholding does not exceed the minimum amount legally required; (b) pay to Lessor immediately the additional amount that will result in the net amount received by Lessor being equal to the amount which would have been received by Lessor had no such deduction or withholding been made; (c) pay to the relevant Government Entity within the period of time for payment permitted by any applicable law the full amount of the deduction or withholding (including the full amount of any deduction or withholding on any additional amount paid under this Clause 4.6); and (d) when requested to do so by Lessor, furnish to Lessor, within the period for payment permitted by any applicable law, an official receipt (if available) of the relevant Government Entity for all amounts deducted or withheld, or if such receipts are not issued by the relevant Government Entity, a certificate of deduction or any other evidence of the relevant deduction or withholding reasonably required by Lessor. 5.

All such other records, logs and other materials shall be the property of Owner and shall be deemed to be part of the Aircraft Records; -15- (c) promptly furnish to Lessor such information as may be requested by Lessor to enable Lessor to file any reports required to be filed with any Government Entity concerning the Aircraft; (d) cause the Airframe and all Engines and Parts to be maintained, serviced, repaired and overhauled to comply with all warranty requirements; (e) cause all scheduled maintenance (other than line maintenance which shall be performed by mechanics or maintenance performers licensed by the Aeronautics Authority), service, repair, overhaul and testing to be accomplished by the Authorized Maintenance Performer; (f) cause to be incorporated into the Aircraft all Alert, Mandatory and Recommended Service Bulletins issued by the Manufacturers or Suppliers in a timely and efficient manner and on a basis that the Aircraft is not discriminated against in comparison with other similar aircraft operated by Lessee; and (g) carry out, on the Aircraft, all Airworthiness Directives which may be issued from time to time during the Term and which have a compliance date falling within the Term or within ninety (90) days after the end of the Term. 6.7. Insignia and Notices Lessee will affix and maintain in the cockpit of the Aircraft adjacent to and not less prominent than the airworthiness certificate therein and on each Engine a nameplate satisfactory to Lessor bearing the inscription set out in Schedule 12 or such other inscription as Lessor from time to time directs in order to show Lessor's, Owner's and Beneficial Owner's interests in the Aircraft. Except as otherwise provided, Lessee will not allow the name of any person or entity to be placed on the Airframe or any Engine or the APU as a designation that might be interpreted as a claim of ownership, except that Lessee may place its customary colors and insignia on the Airframe. 6.8. [Intentionally Left Blank] 6.9. Storage If at any time Lessee is not using the Aircraft in regularly scheduled service, Lessee shall store the Aircraft with the Authorized Maintenance Performer in accordance with the recommended storage procedures of the Maintenance Manual and Lessee shall cause hangar keeper's legal liability and all risks hull insurance to be maintained with respect to the Aircraft. Lessee shall notify Lessor at any time when the Aircraft is in storage and shall specify in such notice to Lessor the location at which the Aircraft is being stored. Lessor or Lessor's agent or -16- representative shall be entitled to inspect the Aircraft and the Aircraft Records, at Lessor's own cost and expense, at any time while the Aircraft is being stored. 6.10. Benefit of Warranties Subject to Clause 6.11, as between Lessor and Lessee, Lessor will remain entitled to the benefit of each warranty or guarantee (including any performance guarantee), express or implied, given by any Manufacturer or Supplier to Owner or Lessor in relation to the Aircraft, any Engine or Part (a "Supplier Warranty"). Lessee will procure that the benefit of any unexpired Supplier Warranty given in relation to any Part or service supplied with respect to the Aircraft during the Term will vest in Owner or Lessor, as Lessor shall require, when given or, if not reasonably practicable at that time, will take all steps necessary to ensure that the benefit of any such Supplier Warranty vests in Owner or Lessor, as Lessor shall require, upon termination or expiry of the Term. 6.11. Right to Enforce Warranties For the duration of the Term (unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) Lessor hereby authorizes Lessee to take any action that Lessee reasonably thinks fit to enforce Lessor's rights under a Supplier Warranty and Lessor shall, at the cost and expense of Lessee, render all assistance as may be reasonably required by Lessee in connection therewith, provided that any such action will be taken at Lessee's expense and any sums paid by the relevant Supplier under the relevant Supplier Warranty shall be applied by Lessee to discharge the cost of rectifying the defect for which the relevant claim was made. 7. INSPECTION Lessee shall furnish to Lessor such information concerning the location, condition, use and operation of the Aircraft as Lessor may reasonably request. Lessee shall permit any person or entity designated in writing as Lessor's agent or representative by Lessor to visit and inspect (at any reasonable time, provided that such inspection shall not interfere with Lessee's operational commitments) the Aircraft, its condition, use and operation and the Aircraft Records maintained in connection therewith and, at Lessee's expense, to make copies of such records as Lessor or Lessor's agent or representative may reasonably designate. Lessor shall have no duty to make any such inspection and shall not incur any liability or obligation by reason of not making any such inspection. 8. REPLACEMENT AND POOLING OF PARTS; ALTERATIONS, MODIFICATIONS AND ADDITIONS 8.1. Replacement of Parts Lessee, at its own cost and expense, shall, as soon as practicable but in any event within 30 days, replace all Parts which may from time to time become worn out, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged beyond repair or permanently -17- rendered unfit for use for any reason whatsoever. In addition, in the ordinary course of maintenance, service, repair, overhaul or testing, Lessee may remove any Part, whether or not worn out, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged beyond repair or permanently rendered unfit for use; provided that Lessee shall promptly replace such Part. All replacement Parts shall be free and clear of all Liens and shall be in as good operating condition as, and shall have a value and utility at least equal to, the Parts replaced, assuming such replaced Parts were in the condition and repair required to be maintained by the terms hereof and shall be owned by Lessee and capable of vesting in Owner free of all Liens. 8.2. Title to Replaced and Replacement Parts All Parts removed from the Airframe and the Engines shall remain the property of Owner and subject to this Lease and any Mortgage, no matter where located, until such Parts are replaced by Parts to which title shall have vested in Owner and which have been incorporated or installed in or attached to the Airframe or an Engine and which meet the requirements for replacement Parts specified above. Immediately upon any replacement Part becoming incorporated, installed or attached as provided above, without further act, (a) title to the replaced Part shall thereupon vest in Lessee, free and clear of all Lessor Liens; (b) subject to the provisions of Clause 8.5, such replaced Part shall no longer be deemed a Part hereunder; (c) title to the replacement Part shall thereupon vest in Owner; and (d) subject to the provisions of Clause 8.5, such replacement Part shall become subject to this Lease and any Mortgage and be deemed to be a Part hereunder to the same extent as the Parts originally incorporated or installed in or attached to the Airframe and the Engines. 8.3. [Intentionally Left Blank] 8.4. Alterations, Modifications and Additions Except as provided in this Clause 8 and in Clause 6.6, Lessee shall not make any alteration, modification or addition to the Airframe or any of the Engines except such alterations, modifications or additions the cost (including labor costs of installation) of which is less than $50,000 and which can be removed from the Aircraft without diminishing or impairing the value of the Aircraft. 8.5. Title to Parts Subject to the provisions hereof, title to all Parts incorporated or installed in or attached or added to the Aircraft or any part thereof as the result of any alteration, modification or addition shall, without further act, vest in Owner and become subject to this Lease and any Mortgage; provided, however, that so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at any time during the Term, Lessee may remove any Part from the Aircraft or any part thereof, provided that (a) such Part is in addition to, and not in replacement of or in substitution for, any Part originally incorporated or installed in or attached to -18- the Aircraft or any part thereof at the time of delivery thereof hereunder or any Part in replacement of, or substitution for, any such original Part; (b) such Part is not required to be incorporated or installed in or attached or added to the Aircraft or any part thereof pursuant to the terms hereof; and (c) such Part can be removed from the Aircraft or any part thereof without diminishing or impairing the value, utility or airworthiness which the Aircraft or any part thereof would have had at such time had such addition not occurred. Upon the removal by Lessee of any such Part as above provided, title thereto shall, without further act, vest in Lessee free and clear of all Lessor Liens and such Part shall no longer be deemed a Part hereunder. Title to any Part not removed by Lessee as above provided prior to the return of the Aircraft to Lessor hereunder shall remain with Owner and subject to this Lease and any Mortgage. 9. TAXES 9.1. General Lessee shall pay, assume liability for and indemnify, protect, defend, save and hold each Tax Indemnitee, harmless from and against, all Taxes which are imposed by any government (or any political subdivision or fiscal or taxing authority thereof) and are imposed on or with respect to, or are measured by, (a) this Lease or any other Relevant Document, (b) the Aircraft or any part thereof, (c) the acceptance, rejection, delivery, possession, use, presence, storage, registration, deregistration, modification, maintenance, operation, sale in connection with the exercise of remedies under Clause 16, return, import, export, subleasing, repair, overhaul, transportation, landing, redelivery, leasing or other disposition of the Aircraft or any part or portion thereof, or (d) the receipts, earnings, insurance proceeds or other amounts arising from the Aircraft or any Part, or the Relevant Documents, provided, however, the foregoing indemnity shall not apply to: (i) Taxes imposed on or measured by the net income of any Tax Indemnitee in the jurisdiction of incorporation or principal place of business of such Tax Indemnitee unless such Taxes result from the use or location of the Aircraft in such jurisdiction; (ii) Taxes imposed with respect to any period prior to the Delivery Date or after return of the Aircraft pursuant to Clause 14; (iii) Taxes imposed on or with respect to a transfer by a Tax Indemnitee of all or any part of its right, title and interest in, to or under the Aircraft (or any Part thereof except the transfer of a Part pursuant to Clause 8 or the transfer of any Engine pursuant to Clause 10.2) or any of the Relevant Documents to any person or entity, unless any such transfer occurs when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; (iv) Taxes which the relevant Tax Indemnitee is subject to as a result of business or transactions unrelated to the transactions contemplated by the Relevant Documents; (v) Taxes caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the relevant Tax Indemnitee; or (vi) any increase in Taxes imposed as a result of a transfer by a Tax Indemnitee of its interest in Lessor or as a result of the change in jurisdiction of incorporation of the relevant Tax Indemnitee. 9.2. Withholding Taxes -19- Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Clause 9, if Lessee is required by law to make any withholding from Rent or any other amount payable by Lessee to an Indemnitee or Tax Indemnitee under any of the Relevant Documents, Lessee shall pay to such Indemnitee or Tax Indemnitee such additional amount as may be necessary to enable such Indemnitee or Tax Indemnitee to receive (after such withholding) and retain an amount equal to the full amount then payable to such Indemnitee or Tax Indemnitee absent such withholding. As soon as practicable after Lessee makes any withholding from any amount payable to an Indemnitee or Tax Indemnitee under any of the Relevant Documents, Lessee shall deliver to such Indemnitee or Tax Indemnitee a receipt or other document, reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee or Tax Indemnitee and reasonably obtainable by Lessee, evidencing such withholding and the payment of the amount withheld to the relevant governmental authority, for the purpose of enabling such Indemnitee or Tax Indemnitee to substantiate a claim for credit or deduction for income tax purposes of the amounts so withheld. Each Indemnitee and each Tax Indemnitee shall cooperate with Lessee to recover or reclaim any Tax paid by Lessee hereunder and any amount recovered shall be repaid to Lessee. Lessee shall be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by any Indemnitee or Tax Indemnitee as a result of such cooperation. 9.3. Amount of Indemnity Each indemnity provided for in Clauses 9.1, 9.2 or Clause 12, shall be in an amount which, after taking into account all Taxes, fees or other charges payable or imposed with respect thereto or as a result of the receipt thereof by any Indemnitee or Tax Indemnitee in any jurisdiction (whether or not excepted above), shall be equal to the amount of such indemnity otherwise payable under this Lease, taking into account any deductions claimable by the Indemnitee or Tax Indemnitee and the cash flow benefits, if any, of receipts and payments. Any payment required to be made by Lessee under Clauses 9.1 or 9.2 shall be due and payable within 30 days following Lessee's receipt of Lessor's written demand therefor (accompanied by an invoice or a written statement of the Indemnitee or Tax Indemnitee describing in reasonable detail the Taxes for which the relevant Indemnitee or Tax Indemnitee is demanding an indemnity and the computation of the amount of the indemnity being demanded), subject to the provisions of Clause 9.4. 9.4. Contest If a claim is made against any Tax Indemnitee for any Tax that is subject to indemnification under this Clause 9, Lessor will give Lessee written notice of such claim. If Lessee so requests in writing within 30 days after receipt of such notice, the relevant Tax Indemnitee shall permit Lessee to contest the claim in the name of the Tax Indemnitee or in the name of Lessee, to the extent permitted by law. However, if such claim together with other claims which could be made with respect to other transactions to which the Tax Indemnitee is then a party could (if sustained) have an adverse effect on the Tax Indemnitee's business or financial -20- affairs (a "Special Claim"), or if Lessee shall not be permitted by law to contest a claim (other than a Special Claim) on behalf of the Tax Indemnitee, then the Tax Indemnitee shall contest such claim in good faith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no claim shall be contested unless and until: (a) the Tax Indemnitee shall have received (i) an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it for all expenses reasonably expected to be paid in contesting the claim (including attorneys' and accountants' fees and disbursements) and (ii) written acknowledgement by Lessee of its liability hereunder (if such contest is decided adversely) in respect of such Taxes; (b) the action to be taken will not involve any material risk of the sale, forfeiture, seizure or loss of, or the creation of any Lien (except a Lien which Lessee shall have bonded in an amount and manner reasonably satisfactory to Lessor) on, the Aircraft or any part thereof or any interest therein; (c) if such contest shall be conducted in a manner requiring the payment of the claim, Lessee shall have advanced the amount required on an interest-free after-tax basis; (d) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and Lessor shall be receiving all amounts of Rent when due, without reduction by reason of any Taxes; and (e) if such claim is a Special Claim, the relevant Tax Indemnitee shall have received a legal opinion (at the expense of Lessee) from counsel satisfactory to the Tax Indemnitee indicating that a reasonable basis for such contest exists. The relevant Tax Indemnitee and Lessee shall in good faith consider the other party's views regarding the conduct of the contest. The relevant Tax Indemnitee and Lessee shall provide to each other, upon request, such reasonably obtainable information and such other reasonable assistance as may be necessary or advisable for the effective evaluation or conduct of such contest. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Clause 9.4, if at any time any Tax Indemnitee waives its right of indemnification under this Clause 9 in respect of a claim, or if, after having received payment of indemnification from Lessee hereunder in respect to such claim, such Tax Indemnitee tenders such payment to Lessee, then Lessee shall not be entitled to contest, or to continue to contest, any such claim. 9.5. Tax Returns Lessee will provide such information as may be reasonably requested by any Tax Indemnitee and reasonably obtainable by Lessee to enable any Tax Indemnitee to fulfill its tax filing requirements with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Relevant Documents. In the event that any return, statement or report is required to be made or filed by Lessee or, if Lessee has actual knowledge thereof, by any Tax Indemnitee with respect to any Tax required to be indemnified against by Lessee under this Clause 9, Lessee shall notify Lessor or the relevant Tax Indemnitee of such requirement and (a) to the extent permitted by law and requested by the relevant Tax Indemnitee or required by law, make and file in its own name such return, statement or report in such manner as will show the ownership of the Aircraft in Owner and furnish Lessor with a copy of such return, statement or report or (b) where such return, statement or report is required to be in the name of or filed by any Tax Indemnitee, prepare and furnish such return, statement or report for filing by the relevant Tax Indemnitee in such manner as shall be satisfactory to the relevant Tax Indemnitee and send the same to the -21- relevant Tax Indemnitee for filing no later than 30 days prior to the due date. Where a Tax Indemnitee is required to make or file a return, statement or report reflecting items other than or in addition to Taxes indemnified against by Lessee under this Clause 9, Lessee shall, upon Lessor's request, provide the relevant Tax Indemnitee with information, within a reasonable time, sufficient to permit such return, statement or report to be properly made and timely filed. 10. EVENTS OF LOSS 10.1. With Respect to the Aircraft Upon the occurrence of an Event of Loss with respect to the Aircraft, Lessee shall forthwith (and in any event within one Business Day after becoming aware of such occurrence) give Lessor written notice of such Event of Loss, and Lessor and Lessee shall proceed diligently and cooperate fully with each other in the recovery of any and all proceeds of insurance applicable thereto. Basic Rent shall continue to accrue and be paid hereunder until such time as Lessor has received the full amount due under this Clause 10.1. On the earlier of the date of receipt of the Event of Loss Proceeds or 90 days following the date of occurrence of such Event of Loss (the "Event of Loss Payment Date"), Lessee shall pay or procure the payment to Lessor of an amount equal to the aggregate of: (i) all arrears of Rent and other amounts due from Lessee but unpaid under any Relevant Document together with interest thereon from the due date thereof to the date of actual payment at the Incentive Rate; and (ii) the Insured Value; and (iii) if Lessee has not paid any of the amounts referred to in (i) or (ii) above on the Event of Loss Payment Date, an amount equal to interest on such unpaid amount for each day on which any of such amounts remain unpaid at the Incentive Rate, less an amount equal to (x) any Basic Rent already received by Lessor with respect to the period commencing on (but excluding) the Event of Loss Payment Date, and (y) any Event of Loss Proceeds already received by Lessor, Owner or Beneficial Owner, as the case may be. At such time as Lessor has received the entire amount set forth above, including, without limitation, all accrued and unpaid Rent and any other amounts due to Lessor under the Relevant Documents, Lessor, subject to the rights of the insurers, shall return to Lessee the Security Deposit and shall, subject to the rights of the insurers, cause to be executed all necessary bills of sale and other documents required to transfer to Lessee all Owner's right, title, and interest, "as-is, where-is," without recourse or warranty, express or implied, in and to (a) the Aircraft, (b) all claims for damage to the Aircraft, if any, against third persons -22- arising from the Event of Loss (unless any insurer requires that such claims be assigned to it), and (c) all rights to any insurance claims and proceeds under all insurance, except liability insurance, maintained by Lessee hereunder, all without representation, recourse or warranty of any kind whatsoever. Lessee shall be entitled to receive all insurance proceeds applicable to the Aircraft over and above the amount due to Lessor under the preceding paragraph, if any, as compensation for the loss of Lessee's interest as Lessee in the Aircraft. 10.2. With Respect to an Engine Upon the occurrence of an Event of Loss with respect to an Engine under circumstances in which there has not occurred an Event of Loss with respect to the Aircraft, Lessee shall forthwith (and in any event within two Business Days after such occurrence) give Lessor written notice thereof and Lessee shall replace such Engine as soon as reasonably possible (and, in any event, within 60 days following such Event of Loss) by duly conveying to Owner, free and clear of all Liens, title to another engine of the same or an improved model and suitable for installation and use on the Airframe with the remaining Engine, which engine shall have a value and utility at least equal to, and be in as good operating condition as, the Engine with respect to which such Event of Loss shall have occurred, assuming such Engine was of the value and utility and in the condition and repair as required by the terms hereof immediately prior to the occurrence of such Event of Loss. Such replacement engine shall be deemed an "Engine" as defined herein for all purposes hereunder. Lessee agrees promptly to notify Lessor of any such substitution, provide Lessor with an officer's certificate demonstrating full compliance with this Clause 10.2 and to take such action and execute such documents, including a warranty bill of sale, as Lessor may reasonably request in order that title to any such replacement Engine shall be duly and properly vested in Owner, and to ensure that such replacement Engine is covered by any Mortgage and that the rights of the Mortgagee in respect of such replacement Engine are duly and properly perfected and protected, and that any such replacement Engine shall be duly and properly leased hereunder to the same extent as any Engine replaced thereby. Lessor shall take such action, or shall cause such action to be taken, and shall execute, or shall cause to be executed, such documents as are reasonably necessary to transfer to Lessee, subject to the rights of the insurers, all Owner's right, title and interest, "as-is, where is", without recourse or warranty, express or implied in or to the Engine replaced pursuant to the preceding sentence to Lessee or its designee. 10.3. Application of Payments from Government Entities Payments received by Lessor or Lessee from any Government Entity with respect to an Event of Loss resulting from the condemnation, confiscation or seizure of, or requisition of title to or use of the Aircraft, the Airframe or any of the Engines, shall, as between Lessor and Lessee, be retained by Lessor, if received by Lessor, or promptly paid over to Lessor, if received by Lessee and shall be applied in satisfaction of Lessee's payment obligations under the Relevant Documents -23- (including, without limitation, under Clause 10.1). If all amounts payable by Lessee to Lessor, any Indemnitee and/or any Tax Indemnitee pursuant to the Relevant Documents (including, without limitation, under Clause 10.1) have been received by the relevant person in full, Lessor shall promptly remit to Lessee any payments described at the beginning of this Clause 10.3 exceeding such amounts payable to Lessor, any Indemnitee and/or any Tax Indemnitee pursuant to the Relevant Documents. Payments received by Lessor or Lessee from any Government Entity with respect to a requisition of use not constituting an Event of Loss during the Term of the Aircraft, the Airframe or any of the Engines shall be paid to (or retained by) Lessee, and Lessee's obligation to make all payments of Rent shall continue undiminished. Payments received by Lessor or Lessee with respect to periods after the end of the Term shall be paid to (or retained by) Lessor; provided, however, that if an Event of Loss has occurred with respect to the Aircraft and Lessor has received all amounts payable by Lessee under the Relevant Documents (including the amount referred to in the second sentence of Clause 10.1) all such payments shall be retained by Lessee. 11. INSURANCES 11.1. Obligation to Insure (a) Lessee will at all times during the Term at its own expense maintain in full force and effect insurances with respect to the Aircraft with insurers and through the intermediary of the Broker and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lessor. (b) The Insurances will be effected either: (i) 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) reasonably approved by Lessor; or (ii) with a single insurer or group of insurers reasonably approved by Lessor which does not retain the risk but which effects substantial reinsurance (the "Reinsurances") with reinsurers in the leading international insurance markets and through brokers each of recognized standing and reasonably acceptable to Lessor for a percentage acceptable to Lessor of all risks insured. 11.2. Requirements Lessor's current requirements for the Insurances are as specified in this Clause 11 and in Schedule 5. Lessor may from time to time stipulate other reasonable requirements for the Insurances so that the scope and level of cover is maintained in line with best industry practice and so that the interests of Lessor and the other Indemnitees are protected. -24- 11.3. Changes If at any time Lessor wishes to revoke its approval of any insurer, reinsurer, insurance or reinsurance, Lessor and/or its insurance adviser will consult with Lessee and the Broker as to whether that approval should be revoked to protect the interests of the parties insured. If, following that consultation, Lessor reasonably considers that any change should be made, Lessee will promptly arrange or procure the arrangement of alternative cover satisfactory to Lessor. 11.4. Insurance Covenants Lessee will: (a) ensure that all legal requirements relating to the insurance of the Aircraft which may from time to time be imposed by the laws of the State of Registration or any country to or within which the Aircraft may be operated 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; (iii) the interests of the Indemnitees in the Insurances and the Aircraft are not prejudiced; (b) not permit the Aircraft to be used for any purpose or in any manner inconsistent with or not fully 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 (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 any insurance or reinsurance in respect of the Aircraft other than that required under this Lease, provided, however, Lessee may, without prior written approval of, or notification to, Lessor, procure additional insurance coverage, under the condition that no additional insurance procured by Lessee shall have the effect of suspending, impairing, defeating, invalidating or -25- rendering unenforceable or reducing, in whole or in part, the coverage of or the proceeds payable under any Insurance required to be provided and maintained by Lessee under this Lease; (e) commence renewal procedures at least thirty (30) days prior to expiry of any of the Insurances and provide to Lessor: (i) if requested by Lessor, a written status report of renewal negotiations fourteen (14) days prior to each such expiry date; (ii) written confirmation of completion of renewal prior to each such expiry date; and (iii) certificates of insurance (and where appropriate certificates of reinsurance), and Broker's (and any reinsurance brokers') letters of undertaking each in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lessor within seven (7) days after each renewal date; (f) on request made from time to time, procure that copies of the policies and endorsements (excluding premium information) with respect to the Insurances required under this Clause 11 be made available to Lessor on reasonable notice for inspection by its representative during normal business hours at the principal place of business of Lessee or the Broker; (g) on request, provide to Lessor evidence that the Insurance premiums have been paid; (h) not make any material modification or alteration to the Insurances which is adverse to the interests of any of the Indemnitees; (i) be responsible for any deductible under the Insurances; (j) provide any other insurance and reinsurance related information or assistance in respect of the Insurances that Lessor may reasonably require; (k) effect and maintain, to the fullest extent customarily available in the international aviation insurance markets, in respect of the Aircraft at all times cover in respect of risks associated with failure of any Computer System to be Year 2000 Compliant (so that if at any time "clause AVN2000A Date Recognition Clause" or any equivalent clause is endorsed on the Insurances, Lessee will ensure that "Clause AVN2001A Date Recognition Limited Coverage Clause" and "Clause AVN2002A Date Recognition Limited Coverage Clause" or equivalent clauses are endorsed on the Insurances), where; -26- (l) "Computer System" means any computer hardware and software or any equipment operated by electronic means; and (i) "Year 2000 Compliant" means, in relation to any Computer System, that any references to or use of a date before, on or after 31 December, 1999 in the operation of the Computer System will not have an adverse effect on the use of that Computer System. 11.5. Failure to Insure If Lessee fails to maintain the Insurances in compliance with this Lease, Lessor, Owner and Beneficial Owner (or any of them) may, but are not obliged to (without prior prejudice to any other rights of Lessor under this Lease): (a) effect and maintain Insurances satisfactory to it or otherwise remedy Lessee's failure in such manner (including, without limitation to effect and maintain a "Lessor's interest" policy) as such person reasonably considers appropriate. Any sums so expended by it will immediately become due and payable by Lessee to Lessor together with interest thereon at the Incentive Rate from the date of expenditure by it up to the date of reimbursement by Lessee; and (b) at any time while such failure is continuing, require the Aircraft to remain at any airport or to proceed to and remain at any airport designated by Lessor until the failure is remedied to its satisfaction. 11.6. Settlement of Claims Lessee will not settle any claims arising under any of the physical loss or damage Insurances in excess of the Claims Limit or an equivalent amount in another currency without the prior written consent of Lessor, that consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 11.7. Loss Adjustment (a) In the event of damage to the Aircraft or any part thereof not amounting to an Event of Loss, and provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Losses arising from the damage will be adjusted with Lessee and: (i) if the Loss does not exceed the Claims Limit or an equivalent amount in another currency, the loss proceeds of insurance will be paid directly to Lessee; and (ii) if the Loss exceeds the Claims Limit or an equivalent amount in another currency, the loss proceeds of insurance will be -27- paid directly to the repairer or, with Lessor's express authorization, to Lessee or as Lessee may direct. For the avoidance of doubt, if any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all Losses will be adjusted with Lessor and all loss proceeds of insurance will be paid to Lessor or as Lessor may direct. (b) 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 to be paid directly in satisfaction of the relevant liability or to Lessee in reimbursement of any payment so made. 11.8. Continuance of Liability Cover (a) From the date of expiration or termination of the Term, Lessee will continue to maintain the liability insurance referred to in Schedule 5 for the benefit of Lessor and the other Indemnitees until the earlier of: (i) three (3) years following the date the Aircraft is returned to Lessor; and (ii) the completion of the next succeeding major structural inspection of the Aircraft, following the end of the Term. (b) Lessee's obligation in Clause 11.8(a) will not be affected by Lessee ceasing to be the lessee of the Aircraft and/or any of the Indemnitees ceasing to have any interest in respect of the Aircraft. 11.9. Lessor's Right to Insure Lessee acknowledges that Lessor, Owner, and Beneficial Owner each have an insurable interest in the Aircraft. Lessor, Owner and Beneficial Owner each shall have the right to obtain at its own expense insurance or contingent insurance in its own name with respect to such insurable interest. Lessee will render to Lessor, Owner and Beneficial Owner all reasonable assistance as from time to time requested by Lessor, Owner or Beneficial Owner, as the case may be, in order that Lessor, Owner and Beneficial Owner each may adequately protect such insurable interest. No insurance so obtained by Lessor, Owner or Beneficial Owner shall prejudice the insurance maintained by Lessee pursuant to this Lease. 12. GENERAL INDEMNIFICATION 12.1. Scope Lessee shall indemnify each Indemnitee and hold each Indemnitee harmless from any and all Losses which may result from or arise out of (a) the condition, use or -28- operation during the Term of the Aircraft or any part thereof either in the air or on the ground, (b) any maintenance, service, repair, overhaul, possession, delivery, performance management, registration, control, return or testing of the Aircraft or any part thereof during the Term, whether or not the Aircraft or any part thereof is at the time in the possession of Lessee, (c) any infringement or alleged infringement of any patent or other intellectual property rights as a result of any article, design or material in the Aircraft, (d) any acceptance flight, demonstration flight or inspection of the Aircraft prior to the commencement of the Term, or (e) Lessee's failure to take delivery of the Aircraft; provided, however, that Lessee shall not be required to indemnify any Indemnitee for any Loss, (i) to the extent that such Loss is caused by the acts or events which occur after expiration or earlier termination of the leasing of the Aircraft hereunder and return of the Aircraft to Lessor in accordance with Clause 14, unless attributable to acts, omissions, circumstances or events occurring prior thereto, (ii) which is a Tax or a loss of tax benefit (it being understood that Clause 9 provides for Lessee's liability with respect to Taxes), or (iii) to the extent that such Loss results from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. Upon payment in full to any Indemnitee of any indemnities contained in this Clause 12 by Lessee, Lessee, to the extent permissible under applicable law, and provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred which is continuing, shall be subrogated to all rights and remedies which such indemnified party has or may have against any Manufacturer, Supplier or other person. 12.2. Lessee's Release Lessee hereby waives and releases any claim now or hereafter existing against any Indemnitee on account of any and all claims, demands, suits, causes of action and all legal proceedings, whether civil or criminal, damages, losses, liabilities (including, but not limited to, strict liability in tort), obligations, penalties, judgments or fines and other sanctions, and any costs and expenses in connection therewith, including reasonable legal fees and expenses of whatever kind and nature, which may result from or arise out of injury to or death of personnel of Lessee or its agents or contractors or loss or damage to property of Lessee or the loss of use of any property which may result from or arise out of (a) the condition, use or operation during the Term of the Aircraft or any part thereof, either in the air or on the ground, or (b) any maintenance, service, repair, overhaul, possession, delivery, performance management, registration, control, return or testing of the Aircraft or any part thereof during the Term, whether or not the Aircraft or any part thereof is at the time in the possession of Lessee. 12.3. Contest If Lessee is not permitted to contest in its own name and if an Indemnitee is unable or unwilling to assign to Lessee whatever right such Indemnitee may have to bring such an action, then, if requested by Lessee in writing, the relevant Indemnitee shall, upon receipt of an opinion of Lessee's counsel stating that reasonable grounds exist to take the action requested, in good faith contest the -29- validity, applicability or amount of any liability or loss, provided Lessee shall have first indemnified or provided security to such Indemnitee against all expenses (including attorneys' fees and expenses) which such Indemnitee may incur as a result of its contesting an indemnified amount (collectively an "Indemnified Amount") by (a) not paying the same except under protest if protest is necessary and proper, or (b) if payment is made, using reasonable efforts to obtain a refund in appropriate administrative or judicial proceedings; provided, however, that an Indemnitee need not contest the applicability of any such Indemnified Amount, if the matter in question is of a continuing nature and has previously been resolved pursuant to the provisions of this Clause 12.3. 12.4. Repayment If an Indemnitee shall obtain a repayment of any Indemnified Amount paid by Lessee, such Indemnitee shall, so long as there exists no Default or Event of Default, promptly pay to Lessee the amount of such repayment, together with the amount of any interest received by such Indemnitee on account of such repayment. 12.5. Payment Subject to the provisions of Clause 12.3, Lessee shall pay directly to the relevant Indemnitee all amounts due under this Clause 12 within 30 days of the receipt of notice that such payment is due. Such notice shall set forth the basis for the claim for indemnification, a calculation of the amount stated to be due and a certification that such computation is accurate save for manifest error. 13. LIENS Lessee shall not, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien on or with respect to the Aircraft or any part thereof or any interest therein, except Permitted Liens. Lessee shall promptly, at its own expense, take such action as may be necessary to duly discharge any such Lien not excepted above if the same shall arise at any time with respect to the Aircraft or any part thereof. As Lessor may reasonably request from time to time Lessee shall provide Lessor with the written opinion of independent counsel reasonably satisfactory to Lessor or other written evidence satisfactory to Lessor to the effect that, based upon an examination of this Lease and the records of the Aeronautics Authority and other documents deemed necessary, and subject to the accuracy of such records, no Liens exist against the Aircraft or any Engine except Permitted Liens (and specifying which, if any, such Permitted Liens exist). 14. RETURN OF AIRCRAFT This Clause 14 shall not limit any rights or remedies under Clause 16. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Lessee shall return the Aircraft to Lessor at the Redelivery Location in the condition and in all respects in -30- accordance with the provisions of Part B of Schedule 6. All references in this Lease or elsewhere to this Clause 14 shall be deemed to refer also to Part B of Schedule 6. 15.

RIGHTS AND REMEDIES 16.1. Remedies 16.1.1. An Event of Default shall constitute a material breach and repudiation by Lessee of its obligations hereunder. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and at any time thereafter so long as the same shall be continuing, Lessor may, at its option, declare this Lease to be in default and at any time thereafter (without needing to comply with any particular notice or grace period), so long as Lessee shall not have remedied all outstanding Events of Default, Lessor may exercise one or more of the following remedies with respect to the Aircraft or any part thereof as Lessor, in its sole discretion, shall elect, to the extent available and permitted by, and subject to compliance with any mandatory requirements of, applicable law then in effect (but, for the avoidance of doubt, without needing to give formal notice of default): (a) pursuant to Clause 4.4, apply all or any portion of the Security Deposit to sums due and payable by Lessee under any of the Relevant Documents; -34- (b) by notice in writing to Lessee, accept the relevant repudiation and terminate the leasing of the Aircraft hereunder and demand that Lessee return the Aircraft, and Lessee shall upon written demand of Lessor and at Lessee's expense, forthwith return the Aircraft to Lessor in the manner and condition required by, and otherwise in accordance with all of the provisions of, Clause 14 as if the Aircraft were being returned at the end of the Term; or Lessor or Lessor's agent or representative to the extent permitted by law may enter upon the premises where the Aircraft or any part thereof is located and take immediate possession of and remove the same by summary proceedings or otherwise, all without liability for or by reason of such entry or taking of possession whether for the restoration of damage to property caused by such taking or otherwise; (c) proceed by appropriate court action or actions, either at law or in equity, to enforce performance by Lessee of the applicable covenants of this Lease and to recover damages for the breach thereof; (d) in addition to all other legal and equitable rights of Lessor, upon notice to Lessee, following an Event of Default, Lessor may lease the repossessed Aircraft or any part thereof to any third party upon such terms and conditions as Lessor may determine; (e) if an Event of Default occurs or the Aircraft is not tendered by Lessor or, upon valid tender by Lessor, is not accepted by Lessee on the proposed delivery date, in either case solely by reason of the failure of Lessee to satisfy any conditions to that delivery, Lessee will indemnify Lessor on demand against any Loss (including loss of profit), which Lessor may sustain or incur directly or indirectly as a result thereof including but not limited to: (i) any loss of profit suffered by Lessor because of Lessor's inability to place or any delay in placing, the Aircraft on lease with another lessee on terms as favorable to Lessor as this Lease or because whatever use, if any, to which Lessor is able to put the Aircraft upon its return to Lessor, or the funds arising upon a sale or other disposal of the Aircraft, is not as profitable to Lessor as this Lease; (ii) any loss, premium, penalty or expense which may be incurred in repaying funds raised to finance the Aircraft; (iii) any loss, cost, expense or liability sustained or incurred by Lessor owing to Lessee's failure to redeliver the Aircraft on the date, at the place and in the condition required by this Lease; -35- (iv) without double-counting with paragraphs (i), (ii) or (iii), any amount of interest, fees or other sums whatsoever paid or payable on account of funds borrowed in order to carry any unpaid amount. 16.1.2. Following the termination of the leasing of the Aircraft during the Term in circumstances amounting to a repudiatory breach of this Lease or an Event of Default, Lessee will on written demand pay to Lessor as liquidated damages or, as the case may be, a debt: (a) each installment of Basic Rent that would have fallen due after the Termination Date but for such termination discounted at the Discount Rate over the period from but excluding the Termination Date to and including the Basic Rent Payment Date on which such payment would, but for the occurrence of the Termination Date, have been due, together with interest thereon at the Incentive Rate from the Termination Date to the date of receipt by Lessor; (b) all arrears of Rent and all other amounts payable by Lessee to Lessor under this Lease or any other Relevant Documents to which Lessee is a party but unpaid at the Termination Date, together with interest thereon at the Incentive Rate from the date on which such Rent or other sums fell due for payment to the date of their receipt by Lessor; (c) all Losses incurred by Lessor in connection with: (i) recovering or having possession of the Aircraft; (ii) recovering Rent or other amounts due hereunder; (iii) returning the Aircraft to the condition required hereunder and in accordance with the provisions of Part B of Schedule 6; and (iv) exercising or enforcing any of its rights under any Relevant Documents to which Lessee is party, together with interest thereon at the Incentive Rate from the date that Lessor incurred such Losses to the date of their recovery by Lessor; (d) any other properly evidenced Losses which Lessor may sustain or incur as a consequence of the occurrence of any Event of Default, including but not limited to: (i) any amount of interest, fees or other sums whatsoever paid or payable on account of funds borrowed in order to carry any amount which Lessee has failed to pay under this Lease or any other Relevant Document; and -36- (ii) any loss, premium, penalty, fees, or expense which may be incurred by Lessor in unwinding any financing of the Aircraft or terminating any guarantee or similar arrangement undertaken in connection with the leasing of the Aircraft to Lessee or unwinding any swap, forward interest rate agreement or other financial instrument relating in whole or in part to that financing, together with interest thereon at the Incentive Rate from the date that Lessor incurred such Losses to the date of their recovery by Lessor. 16.1.3. Lessee acknowledges that its obligation to pay the amounts (the "Termination Rental") referred to in Clause 16.1.2 is by way of liquidated damages and Lessor agrees that, in the event that it is able to place the Aircraft on lease (a "New Lease") with another lessee (a "New Lessee") for any part of the remainder of period prior to the originally scheduled Expiry Date, Lessor will, subject to Clause 16.1.4, pay to Lessee once it has received the same, an amount equal to each installment of rental ("New Rental") that it receives from the New Lessee in relation to that part of such period, after deducting from such amount any amount that may be necessary to compensate Lessor for: (a) Tax suffered by it on such New Rental; and (b) any costs and expenses incurred by Lessor in entering into the New Lease. 16.1.4. Lessor shall only be obliged: (a) to pay any amount under Clause 16.1.3 if it has received all amounts that are due to it from Lessee under this Lease and the other Relevant Documents; or (b) to pay any amount under Clause 16.1.3 to the extent that the aggregate of the amounts paid by it under Clause 16.1.3 would not exceed the aggregate of amounts received by it under 16.1.2; or (c) to solicit offers to lease the Aircraft to any potential New Lessee or to lease the Aircraft to any person if to do so would not conflict with interests of Lessor or of any affiliate of Lessor; or (d) subject to paragraph (c) above, to use its reasonable endeavors, in accordance with its standard business procedures, to place the Aircraft on a New Lease with a New Lessee for the remainder of the period prior to the originally scheduled Expiry Date. 16.2. Further Rights Lessee shall be liable for any and all unpaid Rent and for all reasonable legal fees and other costs and expenses incurred by any Indemnitee by reason of the occurrence of any -37- Event of Default or the exercise of Lessor's remedies with respect thereto, including all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the return of the Aircraft or any part thereof in accordance with the terms of Clause 14 or in placing the Aircraft or any part thereof in the condition and with airworthiness certificates as required hereunder. Lessor and Lessee hereby agree and acknowledge that due to the inherent value of the Aircraft and the potential for significant losses related to its non-operation or non-payment of Rent following an Event of Default and the exercise of Lessor's rights pursuant to this Lease, Lessor shall be unrestricted in its efforts to take immediate possession of the Aircraft pursuant to the terms of this Lease for the purpose of leasing the Aircraft to a new operator or delivering possession of the Aircraft to a purchaser thereof identified by Lessor, in either case, as Lessor may choose in its sole discretion. 16.3. Remedies Cumulative The rights of Lessor under this Lease are cumulative, may be exercised as often as Lessor considers appropriate and are in addition to its rights under any applicable law. The rights of Lessor against Lessee or in relation to the Aircraft shall not, as against or in favor of Lessee, be capable of being waived or varied otherwise than by an express waiver or variation in writing; and in particular any failure to exercise or any delay in exercising any of such rights shall not operate as a waiver or variation of that or any such other right; any defective or partial exercise of any of such rights shall not preclude any other or further exercise of that or any other such right; and no act or course of conduct or negotiation on its part or on its behalf shall in any way preclude it from exercising any such other right or constitute a suspension or any variation of any such right. 16.4. Further Assurances and Undertaking Lessee shall do all such acts and execute all such agreements, instruments and other documents as are necessary in order to give effect to the rights and remedies of Lessor. Lessee hereby undertakes that, in the event Lessor exercises its rights and remedies under Clause 16.1.1(b), Lessee shall take all such actions as are required in order to effect the return of the Aircraft and/or allow Lessor to take possession of the Aircraft and shall refrain from taking action that may in any way hinder, restrain or interfere with Lessor in so doing. Lessee expressly consents to the enforcement of the preceding undertakings, by injunctive or other similar relief, in ex parte proceedings or otherwise, in respect of Lessee or any of its employees or agents, in any court with jurisdiction. 17. MISCELLANEOUS 17.1. Severability, Amendment, Construction and Applicable Law Any provision of this Lease which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. No term or provision of this Lease may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only by a written instrument signed by the party against which the enforcement of the change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. -38- THIS LEASE SHALL IN ALL RESPECTS BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE. 17.2.

Counterparts At least four counterparts of this Lease have been executed by the parties hereto, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute a single agreement. 17.5. Assignment, Transfer and Financing by Lessor (a) Lessee acknowledges and agrees that Lessor, Owner or Beneficial Owner, as the case may be, shall be entitled at any time to assign, transfer or grant any security interest over (i) any or all of its rights and obligations under this Lease and the other Relevant -40- Documents (including, without limitation, its rights to receive the Security Deposit and any Rent) and/or (ii) its right, title and interest in and to the Aircraft to any person without the consent of Lessee. In the case of any such transfer, Lessee hereby agrees and undertakes that it will upon the request of Lessor execute such further documents (including, without limitation, a novation agreement) and give such notices and take such action as Lessor may reasonably require in order to effect such transfer provided that any reasonable costs incurred by Lessee in connection therewith shall be reimbursed by Lessor. (b) Lessee acknowledges and agrees that if Lessor should transfer to a third party all of Lessor's obligations under this Lease, Lessor shall thereupon be relieved of all of its obligations hereunder and Lessee shall thereafter look only to Lessor's transferee as though Lessor's transferee had been the initial lessor hereunder. (c) Subject to the foregoing, no assignment or transfer by Lessor shall diminish any rights of Lessee under this Lease on the basis of law and regulation in effect at the time of such assignment or transfer. Without derogating from the foregoing, Lessee agrees to cooperate with Lessor in any such transfer. (i) Lessor and/or Owner may at any time enter into any financing arrangements in connection with the Aircraft and in connection therewith, inter alia, Owner and/or Lessor may assign as security their respective rights under this Lease and the other Relevant Documents (or any of them). (d) Lessee agrees, at the reasonable cost of Lessor, that it shall do such things and execute such documents and make such filings and registrations in the State of Registration as may be requested of it by Lessor. (e) If as a consequence of any financing arrangements Lessor requires Lessee to: (i) amend the Insurances (including, for the avoidance of doubt, increasing the Insured Value and/or Engine Agreed Value and providing that the Mortgagee shall be named as loss payee), Lessee will make such amendments and, to the extent that those amendments result in an increase in the cost to Lessee of effecting the Insurances, Lessor will reimburse Lessee an amount equal to the amount of that increased cost; (ii) redeliver the Aircraft on the Expiry Date in a condition (the "New Redelivery Condition") which differs from the redelivery -41- condition required pursuant to Clause 14, then provided that Lessor has provided details of the New Redelivery Condition to Lessee within six (6) months prior to the Expiry Date: (A) Lessee will redeliver the Aircraft under Clause 14 in the New Redelivery Condition in place of the redelivery condition required pursuant to Clause 14; and (B) Lessor will pay Lessee on the Expiry Date an amount equal to the amount by which the cost reasonably incurred by Lessee in redelivering the Aircraft in that New Redelivery Condition exceeds the cost that would have been reasonably incurred by Lessee had it instead redelivered the Aircraft in the redelivery condition required pursuant to Clause 14. (f) If Lessor enters into any financing arrangement of the nature contemplated by Clause 17.5(d), Lessee shall take such steps as Lessor may reasonably request to grant the Mortgagee designated by Lessor a Lien in the Security Deposit, including, without limitation, the issuance of a replacement letter of credit complying with the provisions of Clause 4.4 and paragraph 3 of Part 1 of Schedule 3, in favor of the Mortgagee designated by Lessor. 17.6. Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Immunities; Service of Process (a) For the exclusive benefit of Lessor, the parties agree that the courts of the Untied States of America are to have jurisdiction to settle any disputes (including claims for set-off and counterclaims) which may arise in connection with the legal relationships established by this Lease or otherwise arising in connection with this Lease. Lessor shall not be prevented from taking proceedings relating to any dispute as aforesaid in any other courts with jurisdiction. To the extent allowed by law, Lessor may take concurrent proceedings in any number of jurisdictions. (b) Lessee irrevocably waives any objection on the grounds of venue or forum non conveniens, lis alibi pendens or similar grounds. Lessee agrees not to bring proceedings against Lessor in any jurisdiction other than the United States of America. (c) Each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally: (i) agrees that if the other party brings legal proceedings against it or its assets in relation to this Lease, no immunity from such legal proceedings (which will be deemed to include, without limitation, suit, attachment prior to judgment, other attachment, the obtaining of judgment, execution or other enforcement) will be claimed by or on behalf of itself or with respect to its assets; and -42- (ii) waives any such right of immunity which it or its assets now has or may in the future acquire. (d) Both parties shall at all times maintain an agent for service of process in the United States of America. Such agent shall be, in the case of Lessor, Wells Fargo Bank Northwest, National Association at its registered office from time to time (currently, 229 S. Main Street, 12/th/ Floor, Salt Lake City, UT 84111) and shall be, in the case of Lessee, at its registered office from time to time (currently 212 North McDowell St., Suite 210, Charlotte, NC 28204). Any claim form, judgment or other notice of legal process shall be sufficiently served on Lessor or, as the case may be, Lessee if delivered to its agent specified above at its address for the time being. Each party undertakes not to revoke the authority of its agent specified above and if for any reason such agent no longer serves as its agent to receive service of process, that party shall promptly appoint another such agent and advise the other party thereof. If Lessee fails to appoint another such agent after being required by Lessor so to do, Lessor is irrevocably authorized to appoint any person (including itself), on such person's standard or usual terms for acceptance of appointment (if any), as Lessee's agent. 17.7. Currency Indemnity The obligations of each party payable under this Lease in one currency (the "first currency") may be discharged by an amount paid pursuant to any order or judgment of any court or other tribunal in another currency (a "second currency"), but only to the extent that the amount so paid in a second currency on prompt conversion to the first currency under normal banking procedures yields the amount of the first currency due hereunder, and each party shall indemnify the other party and any other person entitled to payments hereunder against any such shortfall and the cost of such conversion. In the event that any payment in a second currency by either party to any such person or entity, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, upon conversion and transfer to the designated place of payment therefore does not result in payment of such amount of the first currency, such person or entity shall have a separate cause of action against such party for the additional amount necessary to yield the amount due and owing to such person. 17.8. Costs and Expenses (a) Lessee and Lessor shall be responsible for their own internal costs and expenses in connection with the documentation and negotiation of the transaction contemplated by this Lease. Lessee shall be responsible for all costs and expenses of external legal and tax counsel for both Lessor and Lessee incurred in connection with the documentation and negotiation of the transaction contemplated by this Lease.

Notice will be deemed to commence from the date on which that notice is given by the Insurers. 5. Where applicable, the Reinsurances will: be on the same terms as the original Insurances and will include the provisions of this Schedule; provide that, notwithstanding any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, dissolution or similar proceedings affecting the reinsured, the reinsurers' liability will be to make such payments as would have fallen due under the relevant policy of reinsurance if the reinsured had (immediately before such bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, dissolution or similar proceedings) discharged its obligations in full under the original insurance policies in respect of which the then relevant policy of reinsurance has been effected; and contain a "cut-through" clause in substantially the following form (or otherwise, satisfactory to Lessor): "The Reinsurers and the Reinsured hereby mutually agree that in the event of any claim arising under the reinsurances in respect of a total loss, such claim is to be paid to the person named as loss payee under the primary insurances.
