General Tax Indemnity Lessee shall pay and discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, within the period for payment permitted by law (and shall, if requested by a Tax Indemnitee, produce to that Tax Indemnitee evidence of the payment and discharge thereof) and indemnify each Tax Indemnitee and keep each Tax Indemnitee fully indemnified at all times from and against all Taxes payable by that Tax Indemnitee at any time in respect of this Agreement, any of Operative Documents, or the Aircraft, the Airframe, any Engine, or any Part or interest therein or in respect of any transaction contemplated by this Agreement or any of the Operative Documents including, without limitation, the purchase (including, without limitation, under the Purchase Agreement), ownership, delivery, redelivery, transport, leasing, subleasing, financing, refinancing, mortgaging, location, registration, use, possession and operation, repair, import to or export from any country, return, storage, maintenance, protection, sale, attempted sale, acceptance, abandonment, rejection or other disposition of the Aircraft, the Airframe, any Engine, or any Part or interest therein, or the rentals, receipts, income or earnings arising from any of the foregoing.

(a) any Taxes arising with respect to periods after the termination of the leasing of the Aircraft under this Agreement and the return of the Aircraft in compliance with the terms hereof; provided, however, that the exclusion set forth in this subparagraph (a) shall not apply to Taxes relating to events occurring or matters arising on or prior to such time or to Taxes relating to payments made by Lessee to or for the benefit of such Tax Indemnitee under Lessee’s Documents following such time;
(b) any Taxes imposed on such Tax Indemnitee to the extent that such Taxes are directly attributable to any Tax Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or breach by such Tax Indemnitee or any Related Tax Indemnitee of its representations or covenants under any Lessee’s Document provided that, in the case of any Tax Indemnitee that is a Lender or a Related Tax Indemnitee, any Tax indemnification of such person shall (if requested by Lessee) be conditioned on an officer or other authorized signatory of Lessor certifying to Lessee that such Tax is not imposed due to the breach by a Tax Indemnitee or Related Tax Indemnitee of any of its representations, warranties or covenants under the Financing Documents;
(c) any Taxes imposed on such Tax Indemnitee that result from (i) any voluntary or involuntary sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition by such Tax Indemnitee or any Related Tax Indemnitee of any interest in the Aircraft or any part or portion thereof or this Agreement or any Operative Document, including any foreclosure by a creditor of such Tax Indemnitee or any Related Tax Indemnitee; provided, however, this sub-clause (c) shall not apply to Taxes arising or resulting from (t) any transfer of the Aircraft pursuant to the Purchase Agreement or the delivery of the Aircraft pursuant to this Agreement, (u) any transfer resulting from the repair, replacement or maintenance of the Aircraft or any part thereof, (v) any grant of a lien or security interest pursuant to any Financing Document upon or following a re-registration of the Aircraft in any jurisdiction other than the United States provided that Lessee is given at least 5 Business Days notice of such grant (but this subclause (v) shall apply only to the extent such Taxes exceed the amount of Taxes that would have been imposed had the Aircraft been and remained registered in the United States), (w) any transfer by the Lessee, including by reason of a sublease, whether or not permitted hereunder, (x) any sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition occurring in connection with the exercise of remedies hereunder or under any Financing Document while an Event of Default hereunder has occurred and is continuing (or would be continuing but for the exercise of remedies), (y) any loss, damage, destruction, casualty, requisition, seizure or condemnation of all or any part of the Aircraft or (z) while the Aircraft is subleased to any non-U.S. carrier (but this subclause (z) shall apply only to the extent such Taxes exceed the Taxes that would have been imposed had the Aircraft not been so subleased);
(d) any Taxes imposed on such Tax Indemnitee with respect to, or measured by, the net or gross income, capital gain, profits, receipts, capital, net worth, corporate franchise, business activity, conduct of business or privilege to conduct business of such Tax Indemnitee or an Affiliate thereof or in the nature or a minimum income tax, (i) by the United States or any state or local jurisdiction therein (other than by reason of the replacement or substitution of an Engine or any part of the Aircraft) or (ii) by any other jurisdiction except in the case of this clause (ii), Taxes that would not have been imposed but for a connection between such Tax Indemnitee and the jurisdiction imposing the Tax due to any or all of (x) the negotiation, presence, execution or delivery by Lessee, or the enforcement or registration of any of Lessee’s Documents in such other jurisdiction, (y) the presence, use, operation, maintenance, alteration, registration, repair or replacement of the Aircraft or any part thereof in such other jurisdiction, or (z) the presence or organization of Lessee or other user of the Aircraft in, or payment by, or for the benefit of, Lessee of any amount under the Lessee’s Documents from, such other jurisdiction (Taxes described in sub-clauses (x), (y) or (z) above shall be referred to as “Lessee Connection Taxes”);
(e) any Tax other than a Lessee Connection Tax imposed on a Tax Indemnitee as a result of any Tax Indemnitee, any Related Tax Indemnitee or any Affiliate of any Tax Indemnitee (A) being organized in the jurisdiction imposing such Taxes, (B) maintaining or having maintained an office or other place of business in the jurisdiction imposing such Taxes or (C) conducting or having conducted business that is unrelated to the transactions contemplated in the Lessee’s Documents in the jurisdiction imposing such Taxes;
(f) a Tax that would not have been imposed but for a Lessor’s Lien;
(g) any Tax that would not have been imposed but for the existence or status of any trust used to hold title to the Aircraft;
(h) any Tax imposed on a Tax Indemnitee in respect of a “prohibited transaction” within the meaning of Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the regulations issued thereunder, or Section 406 of ERISA or the regulations of the US Department of Labor implementing Section 406 of ERISA other than any such Tax arising as a result of Lessee’s breach of Clause 2.1(p) or 8.5 hereof;
(i) any Tax imposed as a result of any Tax Indemnitee’s or its Affiliate’s, agent’s or advisor’s failure to comply with sections 6111, 6112, 6707, 6707A or 6708 of the Code;
(j) any Tax imposed on (i) a transferee of the interests held by a Tax Indemnitee in the Aircraft or any Operative Documents, or (ii) a transferee of any interest in a Tax Indemnitee, in each case to the extent that, under law in effect on the date of transfer such Tax exceeds the amount of the Tax that would have been imposed on the transferor Tax Indemnitee, provided however that this sub-clause (j) shall not apply to any transfer described in the proviso to clause (c) above;
(k) in the case of any Tax Indemnitee that is a Lender or a Related Tax Indemnitee of a Lender, any Taxes unless such Taxes are subject to indemnification pursuant to the indemnification provisions of the Financing Documents;
(l) a Tax liability of any Tax Indemnitee which would have arisen even if this Lease had not been entered into; and
(m) any Tax arising from the failure of a Tax Indemnitee to comply with any certification or other requirement of the jurisdiction imposing the Tax as a precondition to any exemption from or reduction of such Tax to which such Tax Indemnitee may be entitled; provided such certification or other requirement or compliance therewith would not expose such Tax Indemnitee to any risk of material adverse consequences and further provided that Lessee has notified such Tax Indemnitee or such Tax Indemnitee has otherwise acquired knowledge of the relevant Tax and such certification or other requirement within sufficient time so as to allow such Tax Indemnitee, acting with diligence, to comply with such certification or requirement; provided the exclusions set forth in this Clause 18.2 shall not be interpreted to exclude the making of any payment on an After-Tax Basis.
Tax Indemnity (a) The Company shall (within ten Business Days of written demand by the Facility Agent) pay to a Protected Party an amount equal to the loss, liability or cost which that Protected Party reasonably determines will be or has been (directly or indirectly) suffered for or on account of Tax by that Protected Party in respect of a payment of an Obligor.
(b) Paragraph (a) above shall not apply:
(i) with respect to any Tax assessed on a Finance Party:

(B) under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Finance Party’s Facility Office is located in respect of amounts received or receivable in that jurisdiction, if that Tax is imposed on or calculated by reference to the net income received or receivable (but not any sum deemed to be received or receivable) by that Finance Party; or
(ii) to the extent a loss, liability or cost:
(A) is compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 16.2 (Tax gross-up); or
(B) would be compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 16.2(c) (Tax gross-up) but is not so actually compensated for solely as a result of one of the exclusions in paragraph (d)(ii) of Clause 16.2 (Tax gross-up).

Tax Indemnifications (i) Each of the Loan Parties shall, and does hereby, jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.01) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each of the Loan Parties shall also, and does hereby, jointly and severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for any amount which a Lender or the L/C Issuer for any reason fails to pay indefeasibly to the Administrative Agent as required pursuant to Section 3.01(c)(ii) below.
(ii) Each Lender and the L/C Issuer shall, and does hereby, severally indemnify and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, (A) the Administrative Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender or the L/C Issuer (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (B) the Administrative Agent and the Loan Parties, as applicable, against any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.06(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (C) the Administrative Agent and the Loan Parties, as applicable, against any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or a Loan Party in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (ii).
Tax Gross Up and Indemnities Definitions In this Agreement:

Insurance and Indemnities 15.1 The Service Provider shall maintain the following insurance for the duration of the contract:
15.2 The Service Provider shall hold and maintain the Required Insurances for a minimum of six (6) years following the expiration or earlier termination of the agreement.
Separate Indemnities To the extent permitted by applicable law, these indemnities constitute separate and independent obligations from the other obligations in this Agreement, will be enforceable as separate and independent causes of action, will apply notwithstanding any indulgence granted by the party to which any payment is owed and will not be affected by judgment being obtained or claim or proof being made for any other sums payable in respect of this Agreement.
Tax Indemnification (a) Each Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless, on a joint and several basis, each Recipient against any Indemnified Taxes (including those imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by a Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to a Recipient, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Each Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless Agent against any amount that a Lender or Issuing Bank fails for any reason to pay indefeasibly to Agent as required pursuant to this Section. Each Borrower shall make payment within 10 days after demand for any amount or liability payable under this Section. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrowers by a Lender or Issuing Bank (with a copy to Agent), or by Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of any Recipient, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(b) Each Lender and Issuing Bank shall indemnify and hold harmless, on a several basis, (i) Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender or Issuing Bank (but only to the extent Borrowers have not already paid or reimbursed Agent therefor and without limiting Borrowers’ obligation to do so), (ii) Agent and Obligors, as applicable, against any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to maintain a Participant register as required hereunder, and (iii) Agent and Obligors, as applicable, against any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender or Issuing Bank, in each case, that are payable or paid by Agent or an Obligor in connection with any Obligations, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Each Lender and Issuing Bank shall make payment within 10 days after demand for any amount or liability payable under this Section. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender or Issuing Bank by Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
Withholding Tax Indemnity To the extent required by any applicable Law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective), such Lender shall, within 10 days after written demand therefor, indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to Section 3.01 and Section 3.04 and without limiting or expanding the obligation of the Borrower to do so) for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Taxes or otherwise, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses and any other out-of-pocket expenses, whether or not such Tax was correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Section 9.13. The agreements in this Section 9.13 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender” for purposes of this Section 9.13 shall include each L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender.
