DETERMINATION OF TOP HEAVY STATUS If this Plan is the only qualified plan maintained by the Employer, the Plan is top heavy for a Plan Year if the top heavy ratio as of the Determination Date exceeds 60%. The top heavy ratio is a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the present value of Accrued Benefits of all Key Employees as of the Determination Date and the denominator of which is a similar sum determined for all Employees. The Advisory Committee must include in the top heavy ratio, as part of the present value of Accrued Benefits, any contribution not made as of the Determination Date but includible under Code Section 416 and the applicable Treasury regulations, and distributions made within the Determination Period. The Advisory Committee must calculate the top heavy ratio by disregarding the Accrued Benefit (and distributions, if any, of the Accrued Benefit) of any Non-Key Employee who was formerly a Key Employee, and by disregarding the Accrued Benefit (including distributions, if any, of the Accrued Benefit) of an individual who has not received credit for at least one Hour of Service with the Employer during the Determination Period. The Advisory Committee must calculate the top heavy ratio, including the extent to which it must take into account distributions, rollovers and transfers, in accordance with Code Section 416 and the regulations under that Code section. If the Employer maintains other qualified plans (including a simplified employee pension plan), or maintained another such plan which now is terminated, this Plan is top heavy only if it is part of the Required Aggregation Group, and the top heavy ratio for the Required Aggregation Group and for the Permissive Aggregation Group, if any, each exceeds 60%. The Advisory Committee will calculate the top heavy ratio in the same manner as required by the first paragraph of this Section 1.33, taking into account all plans within the Aggregation Group. To the extent the Advisory Committee must take into account distributions to a Participant, the Advisory Committee must include distributions from a terminated plan which would have been part of the Required Aggregation Group if it were in existence on the Determination Date. The Advisory Committee will calculate the present value of accrued benefits under defined benefit plans or simplified employee pension plans included within the group in accordance with the terms of those plans, Code Section 416 and the regulations under that Code section. If a Participant in a defined benefit plan is a Non-Key Employee, the Advisory Committee will determine his accrued benefit under the accrual method, if any, which is applicable uniformly to all defined benefit plans maintained by the Employer or, if there is no uniform method, in accordance with the slowest accrual rate permitted under the fractional rule accrual method described in Code Section 411(b)(1)(C). If the Employer maintains a defined benefit plan, the Employer must specify in Adoption Agreement Section 3.18 the actuarial assumptions (interest and mortality only) the Advisory Committee will use to calculate the present value of benefits from a defined benefit plan. If an aggregated plan does not have a valuation date coinciding with the Determination Date, the Advisory Committee must value the Accrued Benefits in the aggregated plan as of the most recent valuation date falling within the twelve-month period ending on the Determination Date, except as Code Section 416 and applicable Treasury regulations require for the first and second plan year of a defined benefit plan. The Advisory Committee will calculate the top heavy ratio with reference to the Determination Dates that fall within the same calendar year.
Evaluation The Trustee shall make an evaluation of each Trust as of that time set forth in the Prospectus (the "Evaluation Time"), (i) on the last business day of each of the months of June and December, (ii) on the day on which any Unit of a respective Trust is tendered for redemption, and (iii) on any other day desired by the Trustee or requested by the Depositor. Such evaluations shall take into account and itemize separately, (1) the cash on hand in the respective Trust (other than cash declared held in trust to cover contracts to purchase bonds) or moneys in the process of being collected from matured interest coupons or bonds matured or called for redemption prior to maturity, (2) the value of each issue of the Bonds in the Trust, and (3) interest accrued thereon not subject to collection and distribution. In making the evaluations the Trustee may determine the value of each issue of the Bonds in the Trust by the following methods or any combination thereof which it deems appropriate: (i) on the basis of current bid prices of such Bonds as obtained from investment dealers or brokers (including the Depositor) who customarily deal in bonds comparable to those held by the Trust, or (ii) if bid prices are not available for any of such Bonds, on the basis of bid prices for comparable bonds, or (iii) by causing the value of the Bonds in the Trust to be determined by others engaged in the practice of evaluating, quoting or appraising bonds. For each such evaluation there shall be deducted from the sum of the above (i) amounts representing any applicable taxes or governmental charges payable out of the Trust and for which no deductions shall have previously been made for the purpose of addition to the Reserve Account of such Trust, (ii) amounts representing accrued expenses of the Trust including but not limited to unpaid fees and expenses of the Trustee, the Depositor and counsel, in each case as reported by the Trustee to the Depositor on or prior to the date of evaluation, (iii) amounts representing unpaid organization costs, and (iv) cash held for distribution to Unitholders of such Trust of record, and required for redemption of Units tendered, as of a date prior to the evaluation then being made. The value of the pro rata share of each Unit of such Trust determined on the basis of any such evaluation shall be referred to herein as the "Unit Value." Prior to the payment to the Depositor of its reimbursable organization costs to be made at the earlier of six months after the Initial Date of Deposit or the conclusion of the primary offering period in accordance with Section 3.01 for purposes of determining the Trust Evaluation and Unit Value under this Section 4.01, the Trustee shall rely upon the amounts representing unpaid organization costs in the estimated amount per Unit set forth in the Prospectus until such time as the Depositor notifies the Trustee in writing of a revised estimated amount per Unit representing unpaid organization costs. Upon receipt of such notice, the Trustee shall use this revised estimated amount per Unit representing unpaid organization costs in determining the Trust Evaluation and Unit Value but such revision of the estimated expenses shall not effect calculations made prior thereto and no adjustment shall be made in respect thereof.

Continental procedures, performance standards and means of measurement thereof concerning the provision of air passenger and air cargo services shall be applicable to all Regional Airline Services provided by Contractor. Contractor shall achieve at least the comparable quality of airline service as provided by Continental, subject to limitations imposed by the type of aircraft used by Contractor, its route network and the availability of equipment and facilities, as compared to those of Continental. Contractor shall comply with all airline customer service commitments or policies of Continental as of the date hereof, including without limitation the "CustomerFirst" commitments, and employee conduct, appearance and training policies in place as of the date hereof, and shall handle customer-related services in a professional, businesslike and courteous manner.

In addition, at the request of Continental, Contractor shall comply with all such airline customer service commitments, policies or standards of care of Continental as adopted, amended or supplemented after the date hereof, provided that Continental shall reimburse Contractor for the reasonable out-of-pocket costs of Contractor of complying with such policies in excess of the costs of complying with such policies as in effect as of the date of this Agreement. Contractor shall provide Continental with timely communication regarding the status of all Scheduled Flights, and shall perform closeout procedures at service levels at least as high as those of Continental at comparably-sized airports. Contractor will use Continental's standard procedures for processing and adjudicating all claims for which Contractor is responsible in an effort to avoid such matters becoming the subject of litigation or insurance claims. Contractor and Continental will periodically meet to discuss and review Contractor's customer service and handling procedures and policies and its employees' conduct, appearance and training standards and policies in an effort to ensure compliance with this Agreement, and to agree to the terms of any necessary corrective action plan and the timing of its implementation.
