Dear Xxxxxxx:
This will confirm the following agreement relating to the deferral of, and
payment of, your directors' fees in 2001:
1. All directors' fees and retainers (AFees@) payable to you in connection
with your service on the boards of directors (including committees of such
boards) of AMR Corporation and American Airlines, Inc. for the period January 1,
2001, through December 31, 2001, will be deferred and paid to you in accordance
with this letter agreement.
2. Fees will be converted to Stock Equivalent Units in accordance with the
Directors' Stock Equivalent Purchase Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto as
Exhibit A (the "Plan").
3. On or before January 31, 2010, all the Stock Equivalent Units will be
converted to cash and paid to you by multiplying the number of Stock Equivalent
Units as of December 31, 2009, by the arithmetic mean of the high and low of AMR
stock ("fair market value") during December 2009.
4. AMR's obligation to make payments pursuant to paragraph 3 hereof will
not be released or modified by reason of your death. In such event, the number
of Stock Equivalent Units as of your date of death will be multiplied by the
fair market value of AMR stock during the calendar month immediately preceding
your death, and the amount paid to Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx.
