Impasse Procedure 5.1 If negotiations are not successfully concluded by the first day of school, impasse shall exist. At any earlier time either party may declare impasse. Upon reaching of impasse, the items causing the impasse shall be referred to a three-member committee. 5.2 The fact finding committee consisting of three (3) members shall be formed. One (1) member shall be selected by the Association, and one (1) member shall be selected by the Board within five (5) days. The third member shall be selected by the first two (2) members as follows: The parties shall notify the State Superintendent of Public Instruction that a Fact finder is needed and request a list of potential fact finders from the State Superintendent. If no name on the list is agreeable to both parties, a coin toss shall occur with the party winning the toss having the right to strike a name from the list until only one name remains. The person whose name remains on the list will serve as the chairperson of the fact finding committee. 5.3 Within five (5) days after the selection of the chairman, the representatives who have been negotiating for the Board and for the Association shall meet to exchange written language on each item at impasse. The exchanged documents shall also be furnished by each party to the chairman and other members of the committee. 5.4 The chairman shall convene the committee for fact finding. This committee shall meet with the representatives of both parties. Within twenty (20) days after the chairman is selected, the committee shall present written recommendations to the local Board and to the Association. 5.5 If either party decides it must reject any one or more of the committee's recommendations, said party must, within seven (7) days after the committee has presented its recommendations, request a meeting of the representatives who have been negotiating for the Board and for the Association. The parties shall meet within seven (7) days of the request, unless both parties deem it unnecessary. At such meeting, the representatives shall exchange written statements expressing each party's rationale for rejecting each recommendation found unacceptable and shall attempt to clarify any remaining differences. The representatives shall then resume good faith effort to resolve the remaining differences; provided, after fourteen (14) days after the exchange of the written statements, either party may discontinue such effort. 5.6 The costs for the services of the fact-finding committee, including per diem expenses if any, and actual and necessary travel expenses shall be shared in the following manner: the Board shall assume the expenses of the Board representative, the Association shall assume the expenses of the Association representative, and the expenses of the third member shall be shared equally by the Board and the association. 5.7 The Board shall file a copy of the fact finding report with the office of the State Superintendent of Public Instruction. If the effort to resolve differences is successful, the parties shall draft a written agreement and present the agreement to both parties for ratification, and upon ratification such agreement shall also be forwarded to the State Superintendent. If the effort to resolve differences is unsuccessful, the Board shall forward to the State Superintendent in writing its final disposition of the negotiations impasse process within thirty (30) days of the effective date of implementation.

Sale Procedure During the period from the giving of notice pursuant to Section 10.01(a) hereof until the Proposed Termination Date, the Lessee, as non-exclusive agent for the Lessor, shall use its reasonable efforts to obtain bids for the cash purchase on the Proposed Termination Date (or such earlier date as shall be consented to in writing by the Lessor) of the Aircraft. On the Proposed Termination Date, the Engines shall be installed on the Airframe (provided that the Airframe may be sold with engines meeting the requirements set forth herein for Replacement Engines in lieu of the Engines so long as the aggregate number of Engines and Replacement Engines being sold with the Airframe equals two). The Lessor may, if it desires to do so, seek to obtain such bids. The Owner Participant shall not inspect any bids received by the Lessee with respect to the Aircraft, unless the Owner Participant has given to the Lessee binding and irrevocable notice that neither the Owner Participant nor any of its Affiliates nor any Person acting for the Owner Participant or such Affiliate will submit a bid for the purchase of the Aircraft and if such notice has been given, the Lessee will provide the Lessor with copies of bids received by the Lessee. No bid may be submitted by the Lessee or any Person affiliated with the Lessee (or with whom or which there is any arrangement or understanding as to the subsequent use of the Aircraft by the Lessee or any of its Affiliates) or any agent or Person acting on behalf of the Lessee. The Lessee may reject any bid which is less than the sum of the applicable Termination Value, the aggregate amount of any Make-Whole Premium and all other expenses incurred by the Lessor, the Owner Participant and the Indenture Trustee in connection with the sale. Subject to the provisions of Section 10.02 hereof, on the Proposed Termination Date or such earlier date of sale as shall be consented to in writing by the Lessor, the Lessee shall deliver the Airframe which shall have the Engines installed on it (provided that the Airframe may be delivered with installed engines meeting the requirements set forth herein for Replacement Engines in lieu of the Engines so long as the aggregate number of Engines and Replacement Engines being delivered with the Airframe equals two and the Lessee shall comply with the provisions of Section 11.04 hereof as if an Event of Loss occurred with regard to the Engines) to the bidder which shall have submitted the highest cash bid (whether certified to the Lessor by the Lessee or directly received by the Lessor and certified to the Lessee) in the same manner as if delivery were made to the Lessor pursuant to Article 12 hereof, at a location specified by such bidder, and shall duly transfer to the Lessor title to any such engines not owned by the Lessor, and the Lessor shall, upon payment in full of the bid price and all amounts due and owing pursuant to Section 10.01(c) hereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds and upon discharge of the Lien of the Indenture in accordance with Article XIV thereof, sell the Airframe and Engines or engines to such bidder without recourse or warranty (except as to the absence of Lessor's Liens).
