Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Trustee or any agent of the Trustee
from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by DTC or
shall impair, as between DTC and its DTC Participants, the operation of customary practices
governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any Class A Certificate. Upon the issuance of
any Global Certificate, the Registrar or its duly appointed agent shall record a nominee of DTC as
the registered holder of such Global Certificate.
(b) Transfers of any Global Certificate shall be limited to transfers of such Global
Certificate in whole, but not in part, to nominees of DTC, its successor or such successor’s
nominees. Beneficial interests in Global Certificates may be transferred in accordance with the
rules and procedures of DTC and the provisions of Section 4.02 of this Trust Supplement.
Beneficial interests in Global Certificates shall be delivered to all beneficial owners thereof in
the form of Definitive Certificates, if (i) DTC notifies the Trustee in writing that it is no
longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities as depositary for the Global
Certificates, and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Trustee within 90 days of such
notice, (ii) the Company, at its option, advises the Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate
the book-entry system through DTC or (iii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an

less than a majority in interest in the Class A Trust advise the Trustee, the Company and DTC
through DTC Participants in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system through DTC (or a
successor thereto) is no longer in the Class A Certificateholders’ best interests. Neither the
Company nor the Trustee shall be liable if the Company or the Trustee is unable to locate a
qualified successor clearing system.
(c) [Reserved]
(d) In connection with the transfer of the entire amount of a Global Certificate to the
beneficial owners thereof pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 4.03, such Global Certificate
shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Trustee shall execute,
authenticate and deliver to each beneficial owner, in exchange for the beneficial interest thereof
in such Global Certificate, an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive Certificates of
authorized denominations, in each case as such beneficial owner and related aggregate principal
amount shall have been identified and otherwise set forth (together with such other information as
may be required for the registration of such Definitive Certificates) in registration instructions
that shall have been delivered by or on behalf of DTC to the Trustee. None of the Company, the

Section 6.01 Purchase Rights of Certificateholders. (a) By acceptance of its Class A
Certificate, each Class A Certificateholder agrees that at any time after the occurrence and during
the continuation of a Certificate Buy-Out Event:
(i) each Class B Certificateholder (other than the Company or any of its Affiliates)
shall have the right to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Class A Certificates
upon ten days’ prior written irrevocable notice to the Trustee, the Class B Trustee and each
other Class B Certificateholder, on the third Business Day following the expiration of such
ten-day notice period, provided that (A) if prior to the end of such ten-day period
any other Class B Certificateholder(s) (other than the Company or any of its Affiliates)
notifies such purchasing Class B Certificateholder that such other Class B
Certificateholder(s) want(s) to participate in such purchase, then such other Class B
Certificateholder(s) may join with the purchasing Class B Certificateholder to purchase all,
but not less than all, of the Class A Certificates pro rata based on the Fractional
Undivided Interest in the Class B Trust held by each such Class B Certificateholder and (B)
upon consummation of such purchase no Class B Certificateholder shall have a right to
purchase the Class A Certificates pursuant to this Section 6.01(a)(i) during the continuance
of such Certificate Buy-Out Event; and
(ii) if any Refinancing Certificates are issued, each Refinancing Certificateholder
shall have the same right (subject to the same terms and conditions) to purchase
Certificates pursuant to this Section 6.01(a) (and to receive notice in connection
therewith) as the Certificateholders of the Class that such Refinancing Certificates
refinanced.

of the Class A Certificates, together with accrued and unpaid interest in respect thereof to the
date of such purchase, and any other amounts then due and payable to the Class A Certificateholders

any Series A Equipment Note held as the property of the Class A Trust or the related Indenture
and Participation Agreement or on or in respect of the Class A Certificates but without any
Premium, provided, however, that if such purchase occurs after (x) a record date
specified in Section 2.03 of the Escrow Agreement relating to the distribution of unused Deposits
and/or accrued and unpaid interest on Deposits and prior to or on the related distribution date
under the Escrow Agreement, such purchase price shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of unused
Deposits and/or interest to be distributed under the Escrow Agreement (which deducted amounts shall
remain distributable to, and may be retained by, the Class A Certificateholders as of such record
date) or (y) the Record Date relating to any Distribution Date, such purchase price shall be
reduced by the amount to be distributed hereunder on such related Distribution Date (which deducted
amounts shall remain distributable to, and may be retained by, the Class A Certificateholders as of
such Record Date); provided further that no such purchase of Class A Certificates
pursuant to this Section 6.01(a) shall be effective unless the purchaser(s) shall certify to the
Trustee that contemporaneously with such purchase, such purchaser(s) is purchasing, pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement, the Class B Trust Agreement or the applicable Refinancing Trust Agreement
(as the case may be), and the Intercreditor Agreement, all of the Class A Certificates. Each
payment of the purchase price of the Class A Certificates referred to in the first sentence of this
paragraph shall be made to an account or accounts designated by the Trustee and each such purchase
shall be subject to the terms of this Section 6.01(a). Each Class A Certificateholder agrees by
its acceptance of its Class A Certificate that it will, upon payment from such Class B
Certificateholder(s) or Refinancing Certificateholder(s), as the case may be, of the purchase price
set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph, forthwith sell, assign, transfer and convey to
the purchaser(s) thereof (without recourse, representation or warranty of any kind except as to its
own acts) all of the right, title, interest and obligation of such Class A Certificateholder in
this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Deposit Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Class
A Liquidity Facility, the NPA, the Note Documents and all Class A Certificates and Escrow Receipts
held by such Class A Certificateholder (excluding all right, title and interest under any of the
foregoing to the extent such right, title or interest is with respect to an obligation not then due
and payable as respects any action or inaction or state of affairs occurring prior to such sale)
and the purchaser(s) shall assume all of such Class A Certificateholder’s obligations under this
Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Deposit Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Class A
Liquidity Facility, the NPA, the Note Documents and all such Class A Certificates and Escrow
Receipts. The Class A Certificates will be deemed to be purchased on the date payment of the
purchase price is made notwithstanding the failure of any Class A Certificateholder to deliver any
Class A Certificate and, upon such a purchase, (i) the Class A Certificateholders shall have no
further rights with respect to the Class A Certificates and (ii) if the purchaser(s) shall so
request, each such Class A Certificateholder will comply with all the provisions of Section 3.04 of
the Basic Agreement and the applicable provisions of this Trust Supplement to enable new Class A
Certificates to be issued to the purchaser(s) in such denominations otherwise authorized under this
Agreement as it shall request. All charges and expenses in connection with the issuance of any
such new Class A Certificates shall be borne by the purchaser(s) thereof.
(b) This Section 6.01 supplements and, to the extent inconsistent with any provision of
Section 6.01(d) of the Basic Agreement, replaces the provisions of Section 6.01(d) of the Basic
Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any Operative
Agreement, the provisions of this Section 6.01 may not be amended in any manner

without the consent of each Class A Certificateholder and each Class B Certificateholder or,
as the case may be, Refinancing Certificateholder (in each case, other than the Company or any of
its Affiliates in its respective capacity as a Certificateholder) that would be adversely affected
thereby; provided that the purchase price under this Section 6.01 (as in effect on the date
hereof) for any Certificate held by the Company or any of its Affiliates shall not be modified
without the prior written consent of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, if a Certificate
Buy-Out Event ceases to exist and another Certificate Buy-Out Event occurs and is continuing, the
purchase rights set forth in Section 6.01(a) shall be revived notwithstanding any exercise of such
rights during the continuance of any preceding Certificate Buy-Out Event.

and construed as one and the same instrument. To the extent that any provisions of the Basic

a beneficial interest in, a Class A Certificate, by its acceptance of its Class A Certificate or a
beneficial interest therein, agrees to treat the Class A Trust as a grantor trust for all United

empowered to do anything that would cause the Class A Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust
for such tax purposes (including as subject to this restriction, acquiring any Aircraft by bidding

Aircraft once acquired).

The Certificates represent Fractional Undivided Interests in the Trust and the Trust Property,
and will have no rights, benefits or interest in respect of any other separate trust established
pursuant to the terms of the Basic Agreement for any other series of certificates issued pursuant
thereto.
Subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement,
from funds then available to the Trustee, there will be distributed on each January 2 and July 2
(each, a “Regular Distribution Date”), commencing on January 2, 2010, to the Person in whose name
this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the 15th day preceding the Regular
Distribution Date, an amount in respect of the Scheduled Payments on the Series A Equipment Notes
due on such Regular Distribution Date, the receipt of which has been confirmed by the Trustee,
equal to the product of the percentage interest in the Trust evidenced by this Certificate and an
amount equal to the sum of such Scheduled Payments. Subject to and in accordance with the terms of
the Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement, in the event that Special Payments on the Series A
Equipment Notes are received by the Trustee, from funds then available to the Trustee, there shall
be distributed on the applicable Special Distribution Date, to the Person in whose name this
Certificate is registered at the close of business on the 15th day preceding the applicable Special
Distribution Date, an amount in respect of such Special Payments on the Series A Equipment Notes,
the receipt of which has been confirmed by the Trustee, equal to the product of the percentage
interest in the Trust evidenced by this Certificate and an amount equal to the sum of such Special
Payments so received. If a Regular Distribution Date or Special Distribution Date is not a Business
Day, distribution shall be made on the immediately following Business Day and no interest shall
accrue during the intervening period. The Trustee shall mail notice of each Special Payment and
the Special Distribution Date therefor to the Certificateholder of this Certificate.
Distributions on this Certificate will be made by the Trustee by check mailed to the Person
entitled thereto, without the presentation or surrender of this Certificate or the making of any
notation hereon, except that with respect to Certificates registered on the Record Date in the name
of a Clearing Agency (or its nominee), such distributions shall be made by wire transfer. Except
as otherwise provided in the Agreement and notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on
this Certificate will be made after notice mailed by the Trustee of the pendency of such
distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency
of the Trustee specified in such notice.
The Certificates do not represent a direct obligation of, or an obligation guaranteed by, or
an interest in, the Company, the Trustee, the Subordination Agent, any Loan Trustee or any
Affiliate of any thereof. The Certificates are limited in right of payment, all as more
specifically set forth on the face hereof and in the Agreement. All payments or distributions made
to Certificateholders under the Agreement shall be made only from the Trust Property and only to
the extent that the Trustee shall have sufficient income or proceeds from the Trust Property to
make such payments in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. Each Certificateholder of this
Certificate, by its acceptance hereof, agrees that it will look solely to the income and proceeds
from the Trust Property to the extent available for any payment or distribution to such
Certificateholder pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and that it will not have any recourse to
the Company, the Trustee, the Loan Trustees or any Affiliate of any thereof except as otherwise
expressly provided in the Agreement, in any Note Document or in the

Intercreditor Agreement. This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and
reference is made to the Agreement for information with respect to the interests, rights, benefits,
obligations, proceeds and duties evidenced hereby. A copy of the Agreement may be examined during
normal business hours at the principal office of the Trustee, and at such other places, if any,
designated by the Trustee, by any Certificateholder upon request.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof, and
the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the
Certificateholders under the Agreement, at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent
of the Certificateholders holding Certificates evidencing Fractional Undivided Interests
aggregating not less than a majority in interest in the Trust. Any such consent by the
Certificateholder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Certificateholder and
upon all future Certificateholders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the
transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is
made upon this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited
circumstances, without the consent of the Certificateholders of any of the Certificates.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, the
transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Register upon surrender of this Certificate for
registration of transfer at the offices or agencies maintained by the Trustee in its capacity as
Registrar, or by any successor Registrar, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Registrar, duly executed by the
Certificateholder hereof or such Certificateholder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and
thereupon one or more new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate
Fractional Undivided Interest in the Trust will be issued to the designated transferee or
transferees.
The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in minimum
denominations of $2,000 (or such other denomination that is the lowest integral multiple of $1,000
that is, at the time of issuance, equal to at least 1,000 euros) Fractional Undivided Interest and
multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof except that one Certificate may be issued in a different
denomination. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
the Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the
same aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest in the Trust, as requested by the Certificateholder
surrendering the same.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the
Trustee shall require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge payable
in connection therewith.
The Company, the Trustee, the Registrar and any Paying Agent shall deem and treat the Person
in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the
Company, the Trustee, the Registrar or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the
contrary.
