If, at any time after the public offering of the Class B Certificates, the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the Securities Act) is required by law to be delivered in connection with sales of the Class B Certificates by an Underwriter or a dealer, any event shall occur as a result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus so that the statements therein will not, in the light of the circumstances when the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the Securities Act) is delivered to a purchaser, contain a material misstatement or omission, or if it is necessary to amend the Registration Statement or amend or supplement the Prospectus to comply with law, the Company shall prepare and furnish at its expense to the Underwriters and to the dealers (whose names and addresses the Representative will furnish to the Company) to which Class B Certificates may have been sold by the Representative on behalf of the Underwriters and to any other dealers upon request, either amendments or supplements to the Prospectus so that the statements in the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the circumstances when the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the Securities Act) is delivered to a purchaser, contain a material misstatement or omission, or amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus so that the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as so amended or supplemented, will comply with law and cause such amendments or supplements to be filed promptly with the Commission. (b) During the period mentioned in paragraph (a) above, the Company shall notify each Underwriter immediately of (i) the effectiveness of any amendment to the Registration Statement, (ii) the transmittal to the Commission for filing of any supplement to the Prospectus or any document that would as a result thereof be incorporated by reference in the Prospectus, (iii) the receipt of any comments from the Commission with respect to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, (iv) any request by the Commission to the Company for any amendment to the Registration Statement or any supplement to the Prospectus or for additional information relating thereto or to any document incorporated by reference in the Prospectus and (v) receipt by the Company of any notice of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the suspension of the qualification of the Class B Certificates for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for any of such purposes; and the Company agrees to use every reasonable effort to prevent the issuance of any such stop order and, if any such order is issued, to obtain the lifting thereof at the earliest possible moment and the Company shall endeavor (subject to the proviso to Section 4(g)), in cooperation with the Underwriters, to prevent the issuance of any such stop order suspending such qualification and, if any such order is issued, to obtain the lifting thereof at the earliest possible moment. (c) During the period mentioned in paragraph (a) above, the Company will furnish to each Underwriter as many conformed copies of the Registration Statement (as originally filed), the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus, and all amendments and supplements to such documents (excluding all exhibits and documents filed therewith or incorporated by reference therein) and as many conformed copies of all consents and certificates of experts, in each case as soon as available and in such quantities as each Underwriter reasonably requests. (d) Promptly following the execution of this Agreement, the Company will prepare a Prospectus that complies with the Securities Act and that sets forth the face amount of the Class B Certificates and their terms not otherwise specified in the preliminary prospectus or the Basic Prospectus included in the Registration Statement, the name of each Underwriter and the face amount of the Class B Certificates that each severally has agreed to purchase, the name of each Underwriter, if any, acting as representative of the Underwriters in connection with the offering, the price at which the Class B Certificates are to be purchased by the Underwriters from the Class B Trustee, any initial public offering price, any selling concession and reallowance and any delayed delivery arrangements, and such other information as the Representative and the Company deem appropriate in connection with the offering of the Class B Certificates. The Company will timely transmit copies of the Prospectus to the Commission for filing pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act. (e) The Company shall furnish to each Underwriter a copy of each free writing prospectus relating to the offering of the Class B Certificates prepared by or on behalf of, used by, or referred to by the Company and shall not use or refer to any proposed free writing prospectus to which the Representative reasonably objects. (f) If the Time of Sale Prospectus or any “issuer free writing prospectus” is being used to solicit offers to buy the Class B Certificates at a time when a Prospectus is not yet available to prospective purchasers and any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Time of Sale Prospectus or any “issuer free writing prospectus” in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when it is delivered to a prospective purchaser, not misleading in any material respect, or if any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which the Time of Sale Prospectus or any “issuer free writing prospectus” conflicts with the information contained in the Registration Statement then on file, or if it is necessary to amend or supplement the Time of Sale Prospectus or any “issuer free writing prospectus” to comply with applicable law, the Company shall forthwith prepare, file promptly with the Commission and furnish, at the Company’s expense, to the Underwriters and to the dealers (whose names and addresses the Representative will furnish to the Company) to which Class B Certificates may have been sold by the Representative on behalf of the Underwriters and to any other dealers upon request, either amendments or supplements to the Time of Sale Prospectus or such “issuer free writing prospectus” so that the statements in the Time of Sale Prospectus or such “issuer free writing prospectus” as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the circumstances when it is delivered to a prospective purchaser, be misleading in any material respect or so that the Time of Sale Prospectus or such “issuer free writing prospectus”, as so amended or supplemented, will no longer conflict with the Registration Statement, or so that the Time of Sale Prospectus or such “issuer free writing prospectus”, as amended or supplemented, will comply with applicable law. (g) The Company shall, in cooperation with the Underwriters, endeavor to arrange for the qualification of the Class B Certificates for offer and sale under the applicable securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Representative reasonably designates and will endeavor to maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution of such Class B Certificates; provided that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify as a foreign corporation or as a dealer in securities, (ii) file a general consent to service of process or (iii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction. (h) During the period of ten years after the Closing Date, the Company will promptly furnish to each Underwriter, upon request, copies of all Annual Reports on Form 10-K and any definitive proxy statement of the Company (including any successor by merger of the Company) filed with the Commission; provided that (a) filing such documents with the Commission or (b) providing a website address at which such Annual Reports and any such definitive proxy statements may be accessed will satisfy this clause (h). (i) If the third anniversary of the initial effective date of the Registration Statement occurs before all the Class B Certificates have been sold by the Underwriters, then prior to the third anniversary, the Company shall file a new shelf registration statement and take any other action necessary to permit the public offering of the Class B Certificates to continue without interruption, in which case references herein to the Registration Statement shall include the new registration statement as it shall become effective. (j) Between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Representative, offer, sell or enter into any agreement to sell (as public debt securities registered under the Securities Act (other than the Class B Certificates and related Series B Equipment Notes, a junior class of pass through certificates with respect to a previously issued series and related equipment notes or up to three classes of pass through certificates for a newly-issued series and related equipment notes) or as debt securities which may be resold in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act in reliance on Rule 144A thereunder and which are marketed through the use of a disclosure document containing substantially the same information as a prospectus for similar debt securities registered under the Securities Act), any equipment notes, pass through certificates, equipment trust certificates or equipment purchase certificates secured by aircraft owned by the Company (or rights relating thereto). (k) The Company shall prepare a final term sheet relating to the offering of the Class B Certificates, containing only information that describes the final terms of the Class B Certificates or the offering in a form consented to by the Representative and shall file such final term sheet within the period required by Rule 433(d)(5)(ii) under the Securities Act following the date the final terms have been established for the offering of the Class B Certificates.
