EVENTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES NOT REDUCING OR DISCHARGING GUARANTOR’S OBLIGATIONS Guarantor hereby consents and agrees to each of the following, and agrees that Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty shall not be released, diminished, impaired, reduced or adversely affected by any of the following, and waives any common law, equitable, statutory or other rights (including without limitation rights to notice) which Guarantor might otherwise have as a result of or in connection with any of the following:
DESCRIPTION OF EXISTING INDEBTEDNESS AND OBLIGATIONS Among other indebtedness and obligations which may be owing by Borrower to Bank, Borrower is indebted to Bank pursuant to a loan arrangement dated as of June 11, 2003, evidenced by, among other documents, a certain Loan and Security Agreement dated as of June 11, 2003 between Borrower and Bank, as amended from time to time (as amended, the "Loan Agreement"). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning as in the Loan Agreement.
Modifications and Waivers; Obligation of the Company Absolute The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security. No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Security at the times, places and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
Independent Nature of Investors’ Obligations and Rights The obligations of each Investor under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Investor, and no Investor shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Investor under any Transaction Document. The decision of each Investor to purchase Securities pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by such Investor independently of any other Investor. Nothing contained herein or in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each Investor acknowledges that no other Investor has acted as agent for such Investor in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no Investor will be acting as agent of such Investor in connection with monitoring its investment in the Securities or enforcing its rights under the Transaction Documents. Each Investor shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The Company acknowledges that each of the Investors has been provided with the same Transaction Documents for the purpose of closing a transaction with multiple Investors and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Investor.
Guarantor’s Obligations Unconditional The covenants and agreements of the Guarantor set forth herein shall be primary obligations of the Guarantor, and such obligations shall be continuing, absolute and unconditional, shall not be subject to any counterclaim, setoff, deduction, diminution, abatement, recoupment, suspension, deferment, reduction or defense (other than full and strict compliance by the Guarantor with its obligations hereunder), whether based upon any claim that Lessee or the Guarantor or any other Person may have against Lessor or any other Person or otherwise, and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws, be released, discharged or in any way affected by, any circumstance or condition whatsoever (whether or not the Guarantor or Lessee shall have any knowledge or notice thereof) including, without limitation:
(a) any amendment, modification, addition, deletion, supplement or renewal to or other change in the Obligations, the Lease or any other Operative Document or any of the agreements referred to in any thereof, or any other instrument or agreement applicable to any Operative Document or any of the parties to such agreements, or to the Aircraft, or any assignment, mortgage or transfer thereof or of any interest therein, or any furnishing or acceptance of additional security for, guarantee of, or right of offset with respect to, any of the Obligations; or the failure or release of any security or the failure of Lessor to perfect or insure any interest in any collateral, including the Collateral;
(b) any failure, omission or delay on the part of Lessee or Lessor to conform or comply with any term of any instrument or agreement referred to in clause (a) above;

(d) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or similar proceeding with respect to Lessee, Lessor or any other Person or any of their respective properties or creditors, or any action taken by any trustee, receiver, other Person or court in any such proceeding;

(f) any defect in the title, compliance with specifications, condition, design, operation or fitness for use of or any damage to or loss or destruction of, or any interruption or cessation in the use of the Aircraft or any part thereof by Lessee or any other Person for any reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, any governmental prohibition or restriction, condemnation, requisition, seizure or any other act on the part of any governmental or military authority, or any act of God or of the public enemy) regardless of the duration thereof (even though such duration would otherwise constitute a frustration of a lease), whether or not resulting from accident and whether or not without fault on the part of Lessee or any other Person;
(g) any merger or liquidation of Lessee or any merger or consolidation of the Guarantor into or with any other corporation or partnership or any sale, lease or transfer of any of the assets of Lessee or the Guarantor to any other Person;
(h) any change in the ownership of the capital stock of Lessee; or
(i) any other occurrence or circumstance whatsoever, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing and any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable defense or discharge of the liabilities of a guarantor or surety or that might otherwise limit recourse against the Guarantor. The obligations of the Guarantor, set forth herein constitute the full recourse obligations of the Guarantor enforceable against it to the full extent of all its assets and properties, notwithstanding any provision in the Lease or any other agreement limiting the liability of Lessor or any other Person. Nothing herein shall prohibit Lessor from exercising its rights against the Guarantor or any other Person simultaneously, jointly or severally. The Guarantor shall be bound by each and every ruling, order and judgment obtained by Lessor in respect of any of the obligations guaranteed hereunder whether or not the Guarantor is a party to the action or proceeding in which such ruling, order or judgment is issued or rendered.
