(A) |
From
time to time, Lan Cargo or one of the Guarantor’s Affiliates may wish to
lease commercial aircraft from GECAS or one of its Affiliates;
|
(B) |
Each
party hereto wishes to provide in one document for certain common terms and
conditions, as hereinafter provided in this CTA, that will be applicable,
unless otherwise stated, to each such lease referred to in Recital (A);
and |
(C) |
Each
such lease transaction will be concluded only on the terms of an agreement
entitled “Aircraft Lease Agreement,” which together with this CTA
(which will be incorporated into and become part of such Aircraft Lease
Agreement) will constitute the lease for the applicable aircraft as identified
therein; |
1.1 |
1.2 |
(a) |
In the
Lease, unless otherwise stated, a reference to: |
(i) |
“Lessor,”
“Lessee,” “GECAS,” “Owner” or any other Person
includes any of their successors and assignees; |
(ii) |
plural
concepts shall include the singular and vice versa; |
(iii) |
any
document, excluding the Common Terms Agreement, shall include any changes to
that document and any replacement for it; |
(iv) |
a Clause
or a Schedule is a reference to a clause of or a schedule to this CTA or the
Aircraft Lease Agreement as so indicated; |
(v) |
any
Regulation shall include any changes to that Regulation and any replacement for
it; |
(vi) |
an
obligation of a Person refers to any obligation that Person has under or in
relation to the Lease; and |
(vii) |
“includes,”
“including”, “include” or similar terms shall not be
construed as limiting and shall mean “including, without
limitation.” |
3.2 |
4. |
4.1 |
(a) |
The
Aircraft Lease Agreement shall specify a Scheduled Delivery Month, a Scheduled
Delivery Week or a Scheduled Delivery Date. Unless a specific Scheduled
Delivery Week has been agreed in the Aircraft Lease Agreement, Lessor shall
notify Lessee as soon as possible, but no later than at least thirty (30) days
prior to the Scheduled Delivery Month of the Scheduled Delivery Week and unless
a specific Scheduled Delivery Date has been agreed in the Aircraft Lease
Agreement, Lessor shall notify Lessee as soon as possible but no later than at
least one (1) week prior to the Scheduled Delivery Week of the Scheduled
Delivery Date. Subject to Clause 4.4, Lessor will lease the Aircraft to Lessee
and Lessee will take the Aircraft on lease for the Term, which shall commence
on the Delivery Date, and which shall be evidenced by Lessee’s execution
of the Certificate of Technical Acceptance for the Aircraft. |
(b) |
If (i)
Lessee is unwilling or unable to accept delivery of the Aircraft on the date on
which Lessor tenders the Aircraft for Delivery to Lessee under and in
accordance with Clause 4.3(a), or Lessee fails to fulfill any Condition
Precedent on or before such date, and (ii) the Aircraft meets the Delivery
Condition Requirements, then the Rent Commencement Date for the Aircraft shall
be deemed to have occurred on the date on which it is tendered by Lessor for
Delivery in accordance with subclause (ii) of this Clause 4.1(b), and Lessee
shall be obligated to pay Rent for the Aircraft on and from such date
regardless of whether the Delivery Date occurs or whether Lessee executes the
Certificate of Technical Acceptance, but Lessor shall have no obligation to
deliver, and Lessee shall have no lease interest in the Aircraft or other right
to, possession of the Aircraft unless and until Lessee fulfils all Conditions
Precedent as and when provided in the Lease and Lessee accepts delivery of the
Aircraft as evidenced by its execution of Certificate of Technical Acceptance
for such Aircraft, and so long as no Default has occurred and is
continuing. |
(c) |
Lessee
will be responsible for all risks associated with any loss of or damage to the
Aircraft from the Delivery Date until the Return Occasion (except where the
same is caused solely and directly by the acts of Lessor during the Term
constituting willful misconduct or recklessness) . |
(a) |
Subject
to Clause 3.1, Lessor will tender delivery of the Aircraft to Lessee at the
Delivery Location. |
(b) |
Subject
to Clause 3.1, Lessee will accept the Aircraft. Upon such acceptance, Lessee
must also provide evidence of its acceptance by signing the Certificate of
Technical Acceptance for the Aircraft and delivering it to
Lessor. |
(c) |
Lessee’s
acceptance of the Aircraft shall be regarded as absolute, unconditional and
irrevocable. |
4.4 |
(a) |
Lessor
will not be responsible for any Losses that Lessee suffers resulting from the
delay or from the non-delivery of the Aircraft; |
(b) |
Lessee
will not, except in the circumstances described in Clause 4.4(c), be entitled
to terminate the Lease or to reject the Aircraft when it is offered for
Delivery because of the delay. |
(c) |
If the
Aircraft has not been tendered for Delivery, in accordance with Clause 4.3, by
the Final Delivery Date, either party may terminate the Lease by delivering
notice of its intent to terminate the Lease to the other party ten (10) days
prior to such Final Delivery Date (and if such notice is not so delivered, the
Final Delivery Date will be deemed extended for one additional period of ninety
(90) days). Upon the delivery of any such notice or automatically on the
expiration of such 90-day period if no such notice has been delivered, all
obligations of each party under the Lease will terminate either on the Final
Delivery Date, or the expiry date of the additional ninety (90) day period if
so extended, provided that the Aircraft has not theretofore been tendered for
Delivery as of such date in accordance with the Lease, except that Lessor will
repay to Lessee the Deposit (if any), return to Lessee or cancel any Letter of
Credit, and release and return any Guaranty, if applicable, and Lessee will
remain obligated under its indemnity set forth in Clause 3 of Schedule 4. If
Lessor on reasonable grounds determines that there is no reasonable possibility
that the Aircraft will be available for Delivery on or before the Final
Delivery Date, Lessor shall then promptly notify Lessee of such circumstances,
and Lessor and/or Lessee shall be entitled to effect a termination of the
parties’ obligations hereunder upon ten (10) days prior, written notice to
the other party; and upon such termination becoming effective, Lessor shall
repay the Deposit to Lessee, return or cancel the Letter of Credit and release
or return of the Guaranty as set forth in the previous
sentence. |
(d) |
Lessee
hereby agrees that its only right or remedy for a delay in delivery of the
Aircraft due to an Unforeseen Event is the remedy set forth in Clause 4.4(c)
above and Lessee hereby waives any rights it may have under Section 2A-406 of
the UCC or otherwise for any delay in delivery. |
5. |
5.1 |
5.2 |
(a) |
if there
is no numerically corresponding day in that month, it will end on the last day
of that month; and |
(b) |
if a
Rental Period would otherwise overrun the Expiry Date, it will end on the
Expiry Date. |
5.3 |
(a) |
Time
of Payment: Lessee
will pay to Lessor or its order Rent in advance, as specified in the applicable
Aircraft Lease Agreement, on each Rent Date. Lessor must receive value for the
payment on each Rent Date. If a Rental Period begins on a day which is not a
Business Day, the Rent payable in respect of that Rental Period shall be paid
on the Business Day immediately succeeding that day. |
(b) |
Amount:
The Rent
payable during the Term shall be calculated as provided in the Aircraft Lease
Agreement. |
5.5 |
5.6 |
(a) |
deduct
the minimum amount necessary to comply with the Law; |
(b) |
pay
Lessor an extra amount so that Lessor receives a net amount on the relevant
payment date, that is equal to the amount that it would have received if the
reduction had not been made. The amount of any such payment to Lessor must take
into account the tax treatment of that payment to Lessor applying the
principles of Clause 5.10 such that Lessor shall be in no worse position than
it would have been if the deduction had not applied in the first
place; |
(c) |
pay the
Tax to the relevant taxing authority according to the relevant Law;
and |
(d) |
obtain a
receipt (if one is available) from the relevant taxing authority and give it to
Lessor; |
5.7 |
Tax Indemnity |
(a) |
Lessee
will, within 10 Business Days of Lessor’s demand therefor, pay and
indemnify each Tax Indemnitee against all Taxes (other than Lessor Taxes)
levied or imposed against or upon Lessor or Lessee or any Tax Indemnitee and
relating to or attributable to Lessee, the Lease or the Aircraft directly or
indirectly in connection with the importation, exportation, registration,
ownership, leasing, subleasing, purchase, delivery, possession, use, operation,
repair, maintenance, overhaul, transportation, landing, storage, presence or
redelivery of the Aircraft or any part thereof or any rent, receipts, insurance
proceeds, income or other amounts arising there from, or the making of any
Equipment Change. |
(b) |
If a Tax
Indemnitee in good faith, acting reasonably, determines that it has realized
any Tax savings (by way of refund, deduction, credit or otherwise) in respect
of any amount with respect to which Lessee shall have made a payment (or
increased payment) pursuant to Clause 5.6, 5.7(a) or 5.10, and such Tax
savings shall not have been taken into account previously in calculating any
indemnity payment made by Lessee, then the Tax Indemnitee shall, to the extent
that it can do so without prejudice to the retention of the relevant savings,
pay to Lessee such amount as the Tax Indemnitee shall in its reasonable opinion
have concluded to be the amount of such Tax savings (together with, in the case
of a refund, any interest received thereon) provided that: |
(i) |
any such
payment shall leave the Tax Indemnitee in no more and no less favorable a
position than it would have been in if the Taxes paid or indemnified against
pursuant to clause 5.6, 5.7(a) or 5.10 had not been imposed, levied or
asserted; |
(ii) |
the Tax
Indemnitee shall not be obliged to make a payment under this
sub-clause (b) if it determines in its discretion (having regard to advice
that it may have obtained from an independent, reputable tax advisor) that such
payment would prejudice its retention of such Tax savings. If so requested by
Lessee, Lessor will show Lessee a copy of such advice to the extent to which
Lessor may have obtained such advice; |
(iii) |
the Tax
Indemnitee shall not be obliged to make any payment under this
sub-clause (b) if by doing so it would contravene the terms of any
applicable law. |
interfere
with the right of Lessor to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it
thinks fit (or give Lessee any right to investigate, or impose any obligation
on the Tax Indemnitee to disclose, the same) and, in particular, but without
limitation, Lessor shall not be under any obligation to claim credit, relief,
remission or repayment from or against its corporate profits or similar Tax
liability in respect of the amount of any such deduction or withholding in
priority to any other claims, reliefs, credits or deductions available to
Lessor; or |
(ii) |
oblige
Lessor to disclose any information relating to its Tax affairs or any
computations in respect thereof. |
(c) |
If
Lessee is required by any applicable Law, or by any third party, to deliver any
report or return in connection with any Taxes for which Lessee is obliged to
indemnify Lessor or any Tax Indemnitee under the Lease, Lessee will complete
the same and, on request, supply a copy of the report or return to Lessor.
|
(d) |
If any
report, return or statement is required to be made by Lessor or any Tax
Indemnitee with respect to any Tax for which there is an indemnity obligation
of Lessee under the Lease, Lessee will promptly notify Lessor of the
requirement, and: |
(i) |
if
permitted by applicable Law, make and file in a timely manner such report,
return or statement (except for any report, return or statement that (i) Lessor
has requested Lessee to provide to Lessor in advance of making and filing, in
which case, such report, return or statement shall not be made and filed
without Lessee first receiving Lessor’s prior written response (not to be
unreasonably delayed or withheld) provided always that if Lessee has supplied
such report, return or statement to Lessor and Lessee has not received
Lessor’s prior written response after providing Lessor with a reminder
that Lessee was awaiting its response, then Lessee may proceed to make and/or
file such report, return or statement if Lessee is likely to suffer adverse tax
consequences by delaying further pending receipt of Lessor’ prior written
response or (ii) Lessor has notified Lessee that Lessor or any Tax Indemnitee
intends to prepare and file), prepare such return in such manner as will
indicate Lessor as owner and lessor of the Aircraft if required or appropriate,
and provide Lessor upon request a copy of each such report, return or statement
filed by Lessee, or |
(ii) |
if
Lessee is not permitted by applicable Law to file any such report, return or
statement, Lessee will prepare and deliver to Lessor a proposed form of such
report, return or statement within a reasonable time prior to the time such
report, return or statement is to be filed and Lessor will promptly file such
report, return or statement when due; |
(e) |
If
Lessee is required to make a payment pursuant to Clause 5.7 or 5.10 to a Tax
Indemnitee other than Lessor, Lessee may (by notice in writing to Lessor)
require (prior to making such payment) that such Tax Indemnitee expressly
agrees in favor of Lessee to comply with Clause 5.7(b) and (d) and Clause
5.9. |
(f) |
Lessee
will also indemnify each Tax Indemnitee, on an After-Tax Basis, as set forth in
the section entitled “Special Tax Indemnity” in the Aircraft Lease
Agreement, and the provisions of Clause 5.9 shall apply
thereto. |
(i) |
the
normal administrative costs and expenses of Lessor or any Tax Indemnitee except
to the extent that the same arise as a result of the occurrence a Default;
or |
(ii) |
penalties,
additions to Taxes, fines or interest on Taxes which are the direct result of a
failure or unreasonable delay by Lessor to advise Lessee of a demand or
assessment actually received by Lessor (but not received by Lessee or not
reasonably known by Lessee) in respect of Taxes for which Lessee is responsible
hereunder. |
5.8 |
(a) |
For the
purposes of this Clause 5.8: |
(i) |
“VAT”
means value added tax and any goods and services, sales or turnover tax,
imposition or levy of a like nature; and |
(ii) |
“supply”
includes anything on or in respect of which VAT is
chargeable. |
(b) |
Lessee
will pay to Lessor or the relevant taxing authority and indemnify Lessor
against the amount of any VAT chargeable in respect of any supply for VAT
purposes under the Lease. Lessee shall provide evidence to Lessor, if
available, in respect of any payment it makes of such VAT. |
(c) |
Each
amount stated as payable by Lessee under the Lease is exclusive of VAT (if
any). |
(a) |
Contest:
If
Lessee disputes the payment of any Taxes payable by a Tax Indemnitee for which
Lessee is responsible under the Lease, Lessor will consider with Lessee the
taking of such action as Lessee may reasonably request at Lessee’s expense
to contest that payment, but Lessor will only be obliged to take any such
action if: |
(i) |
Lessee
provides the Tax Indemnitee, upon the Tax Indemnitee’s written request,
with an opinion, issued by a reputable, independent tax counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Tax Indemnitee, to the effect that there is a reasonable
basis for such contest; |
(ii) |
any such
action does not present a risk of the imposition of criminal penalties or, in
the Tax Indemnitee’s reasonable judgment, any risk of the sale,
forfeiture, or loss of, or the creation of any Security Interest on, the
Aircraft, or any other material adverse effect on the interest of the Tax
Indemnitee; and |
(iii) |
Lessee
shall have made adequate provision to the satisfaction of the Tax Indemnitee in
respect of the expense concerned. |
(b) |
Mitigation:
If
circumstances are such that Lessor or any other Tax Indemnitee intends to claim
indemnification from Lessee under Clauses 5.6 (a) or 5.7 Lessor or such other
Tax Indemnitee shall, after consultation with Lessee and to the extent that it
can do so lawfully and without prejudice to its own position and/or to
Lessee’s indemnity and other obligations, consider and will agree what
steps it can reasonably take with a view to mitigating the effect of such
circumstances on Lessee. |
(a) |
redelivery
of the Aircraft to Lessor in accordance with and in the condition required by
the Lease; or |
(b) |
payment
to Lessor of the Agreed Value following an Event of Loss after the Delivery
Date; or |
(c) |
payment
to Lessor of the Purchase Price following the exercise by Lessee of any right
to purchase. |
(i) |
Lessor
will pay to Lessee the balance of the Deposit (if any); |
(ii) |
Lessor
will pay to Lessee the amount of any Rent received in respect of any period
falling after the date of redelivery of the Aircraft or payment of the Agreed
Value, as the case may be; and |
(iii) |
Lessor
will return to Lessee or cancel any Letter of Credit and release and return any
Guaranty. |
5.12 |
(a) |
If,
under the Lease, Lessee is required to pay a Deposit, Lessee hereby grants a
security interest in the Deposit to Lessor and the remaining provisions of this
Clause shall apply. Lessee agrees that Lessor shall be entitled to commingle
the Deposit with Lessor’s general or other funds, Lessor will have no
obligation to pay any interest thereon and Lessor will not hold any such funds
as agent or in trust for Lessee or in any similar fiduciary capacity. In this
regard, Lessee acknowledges and agrees that it |
|
is not
located in the State of New York within the meaning of Section 7-101 1-c. (b)
of the New York General Obligations Law and, therefore, the requirements of
Section 7-101 of the New York General Obligations Law to the effect that Lessor
hold the Deposit in a separate, interest bearing account do not apply.
|
(b) |
If
Lessee fails to comply with any provision of the Lease or the Other Agreements,
or any Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in addition to all rights
and remedies accorded to Lessor elsewhere in the Lease or under Law in respect
of the Deposit, Lessor may immediately or at any time thereafter, without prior
notice to Lessee, apply all or part of the Deposit in or towards the payment or
discharge of any matured obligation owed by Lessee or any affiliate of Lessee
under the Lease or the Other Agreements, in such order as Lessor sees fit,
and/or exercise any of the rights of set-off described in Clause 5.20 against
all or part of the Deposit. |
(c) |
If
Lessor exercises the rights described in Clause 5.13(b) above, Lessee shall,
following a demand in writing from Lessor, immediately restore the Deposit to
the level at which it stood immediately prior to such
exercise. |
5.14 |
(a) |
If,
under the Lease, Lessee is required or elects to provide Lessor with a Letter
of Credit, the provisions of this Clause shall apply. Any Letter of Credit
provided by Lessee to Lessor will (i) be issued
or confirmed and payable by the London or New York branch of a major
international bank whose long-term unsecured, unsubordinated and unguaranteed
debt obligations are rated by Xxxxx’x Investors Services Inc. or Standard
and Poors Corporation not less than Bbb and BBB, respectively, and are not on
credit-watch by any of such agencies,. (ii) be
in substantially the form of Schedule 11 and in form and substance reasonably
acceptable to Lessor, (iii) be issued as security for all payment obligations
of Lessee to Lessor or any of its Affiliates under the Lease and each Other
Agreement (including any and all Losses suffered or incurred by Lessor or any
of its Affiliates in respect of which Lessee or any of its Affiliates is
obligated under the Lease or any Other Agreement), and (iv) remain in full
force and effect and may be drawn down by Lessor upon demand at any time or
times following the occurrence of a Default until the Required LC Expiry
Date. |
(b) |
With the
prior written consent of Lessor, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, the Letter of Credit may have a validity period or periods ending
prior to the Required LC Expiry Date, provided that (i) the Letter of Credit
shall, in each case, be renewed, extended or reissued and delivered to Lessor
not later than thirty (30) Business Days prior to its expiry; and (ii) a Letter
of Credit shall remain in force at all times up to the Required LC Expiry

confirmed by another bank complying with such requirements. |
(d) |

If
Lessee fails to pay any amount payable under the Lease on the due date, Lessee
will pay on demand from time to time to Lessor interest (both before and after
judgment) on that amount, from the due date to the date of payment in full by
Lessee to Lessor, at the Interest Rate. All such interest will be compounded
monthly and calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the
month, assuming a 30 day month and a 360 day year. |
(b) |
If
Lessor fails to pay any amount payable to Lessee under the Lease on the due
date, Lessor will pay on demand from time to time to Lessee interest (both
before and after judgment) on that amount, from the due date to the date of
payment in full by Lessor to Lessee, at the Interest Rate. All such interest
will be compounded monthly and calculated on the basis of the actual number of
days elapsed in the month, assuming a 30 day month and a 360 day
year. |
5.17 |
(i) |
Lessee
acknowledges that the specification of Dollars payable in New York in the Lease
is of the essence and that Dollars shall be the currency of account in any and
all events. Lessee waives any right it may have in any jurisdiction to pay any
amount under the Lease in a currency other than Dollars. |
(ii) |
If
Lessor receives an amount in respect of Lessee’s liability under the Lease
or if such liability is converted into a claim, proof, judgment or order in a
currency other than the currency (the “contractual currency”) in
which the amount is expressed to be payable under the Lease:
- |
(A) |
Lessee
will indemnify Lessor as an independent obligation against any loss arising out
of or as a result of such conversion; |
(B) |
if the
amount received by Lessor, when converted into the contractual currency (at the
market rate at which Lessor is able on the date of receipt by Lessor (or on the
next date thereafter on which under normal banking practice Lessor is able to
convert the amount received into the contractual currency) to purchase the
contractual currency in New York or at its option London with that other
currency) is less than the amount owed in the contractual currency, Lessee
will, forthwith on demand, pay to Lessor an amount in the contractual currency
equal to the deficit; and |
(C) |
Lessee
will pay to Lessor on demand any exchange costs and Taxes payable in connection
with the conversion. |
(i) |
Lessor
acknowledges that the specification of Dollars in the Lease is of the essence
and that Dollars shall be the currency of account in any and all
|
(ii) |
If
Lessee receives an amount in respect of Lessor’s liability under
the
Lease or if
such liability is converted into a claim, proof, judgement or order in a
currency other than the currency (the “contractual currency”) in
which the amount is expressed to be payable under the
Lease:
|
(A) |
Lessor
will indemnify Lessee as an independent obligation against any loss arising out
of or as a result of such conversion; |
(B) |
if the
amount received by Lessee, when converted into the contractual currency (at the
market rate at which Lessee is able on the date of receipt by Lessee (or on the
next date thereafter on which under normal banking practice Lessee is able to
convert the amount received into the contractual currency) to purchase the
contractual currency in New York or at its option London with that other
currency) is less than the amount owed in the contractual currency, Lessor
will, forthwith on demand, pay to Lessee an amount in the contractual currency
equal to the deficit; and |

Lessor
will pay to Lessee on demand any exchange costs and Taxes payable in connection
with the conversion. |

5.20 |
(a) |
In this
sub-clause, references to Lessee will also include Lessee
Affiliates. |
(b) |
Lessor
may, without notice, set-off any matured obligation owed by Lessee under the
Lease or under the Other Agreements against any obligation (whether or not
matured) Lessor or any of its Affiliates owes Lessee under the Lease or under
the Other Agreements, regardless of the place of payment or currency. Promptly
after making any such set-off, Lessor shall notify Lessee thereof, but failure
to give such notice shall not affect the effectiveness of any such
set-off. |
5.21 |
(a) |
to deal
with any amendments, extensions, consents or waivers that are required by
Lessee in connection with the Lease (but excluding any expenses incurred by
Lessor or Owner in connection with any change in the ownership or financing of
the Aircraft) or to implement any replacement of any Engine or
Part; |
(b) |
to act
upon any advice and obtain assistance to perfect the Lease in the State of
Registry and the State of Incorporation under the Cape Town Convention (and any
other appropriate place) including any filing or registration fees in
connection therewith; and |
(c) |
in
contemplation of, or otherwise in connection with, the enforcement or
preservation of any of Lessor’s rights under the Lease (including under
Clause 10) or in respect of the repossession of any Aircraft.
|
5.22 |
(a) |
So long
as no Event of Default has occurred which is continuing, Lessor shall make
available to Lessee during the Term the benefit of all manufacturer’s
warranties in relation to the repair or remedy of any defect in the Aircraft
(including compensation for loss of use of the Aircraft) and other product
support for the Aircraft to the extent that it is permitted to do so. In
furtherance of the foregoing, Lessor shall take such actions, at Lessee’s
cost and expense, as Lessee may reasonably request to make such warranties
available to Lessee. Lessee will give Lessor prompt written notice of any
warranty claim which is settled with Lessee on the basis of a cash
payment. |
(b) |
If an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing Lessor may immediately recover
from Lessee the proceeds of any warranty claims previously paid to Lessee to
the extent that such claims relate to any defect in the Aircraft not fully and
completely rectified by Lessee before such Event of Default and Lessor
may: |
(i) |
retain
for its own account any such proceeds previously paid to Lessor which would
have been remitted to Lessee under this Clause 6 in the absence of such Event
of Default so long as such Event of Default is continuing;
and |
(ii) |
cause
any proceeds of any pending claims to be paid to Lessor, rather than Lessee so
long as such Event of Default is continuing. |
(c) |
Lessee
will take all steps as are necessary at the end of the Term to ensure that the
benefit of any assignable warranties relating to the Aircraft which have not
expired is vested in Lessor. Lessee will use reasonable endeavors to ensure
that warranties obtained from vendors with which it contracts are
assignable |

provide
Lessor with a Technical Report for the Aircraft within seven (7) days after the

promptly
notify Lessor of any Default; |
(e) |

been paid in full as and when due; |
(f) |
provide
Lessor with such other information concerning the location, condition, use and
operation of the Aircraft or concerning the business or financial affairs of
Lessee, as Lessor may from time to time reasonably request; |
(g) |
upon
receipt of a request from Lessor, give Lessor not less than thirty (30) days
prior written notice as to the time and location of all Airframe Heavy Checks,
provided that Lessee receives Lessor’s request at least thirty (30) days
before the next Airframe Heavy Check or equivalent heavy maintenance check;
and |
(h) |
upon
receipt of a request from Lessor, notify Lessor, promptly, of the removal of
any Engine for the purpose of Engine Refurbishment. |
(a) |
in
violation of any applicable Regulations or in a manner causing Lessor, Owner,
any Financing Party or GECAS to be in violation of any applicable Regulations;
|
(b) |
for any
purpose for which the Aircraft was not designed or which is
illegal; |
(c) |
to carry
cargo which could reasonably be expected to damage the
Aircraft; |
(d) |
in any
circumstances or place where the Aircraft is not covered by the Insurances; or
|
(e) |
for
purposes of training, qualifying or re-confirming the status of cockpit
personnel except for the benefit of Lessee’s or Guarantor Affiliates’
cockpit personnel, and then only if the use of the Aircraft for such purpose is
not disproportionate to the use for such purpose of other aircraft of the same
type operated by Lessee. |
(i) |
LESSEE
IS SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DETERMINATION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF ALL SECURITY
MEASURES AND SYSTEMS NECESSARY OR APPROPRIATE FOR THE PROPER PROTECTION OF THE
AIRCRAFT (WHETHER ON THE GROUND OR IN FLIGHT) AGAINST (A) THEFT, VANDALISM,
HIJACKING, DESTRUCTION, BOMBING, TERRORISM OR SIMILAR ACTS, DIRECTLY OR
INDIRECTLY AFFECTING IN ANY WAY THE AIRCRAFT OR ANY PART THEREOF, OR ANY
PERSONS WHO (WHETHER OR NOT ON BOARD THE AIRCRAFT) MAY SUSTAIN ANY INJURY OR
DAMAGE AS A RESULT OF ANY SUCH ACTS, (B) THE USE OF THE AIRCRAFT IN ANY ACTS,
INCLUDING THOSE OF DESTRUCTION, BOMBING, TERRORISM OR SIMILAR ACTS, AND (C) THE
TAKING, THEFT OR USE OF ANY PRODUCTS, CHEMICALS, GOODS, OR MATERIALS OF ANY
KIND, FORM, OR NATURE LOCATED ON BOARD THE AIRCRAFT OR BEING TRANSPORTED VIA
THE AIRCRAFT; |
(ii) |
LESSEE’S
IMPLEMENTATION OF SUCH SECURITY MEASURES AND SYSTEMS IS A MATERIAL OBLIGATION
OF LESSEE UNDER THE LEASE, AND THAT LESSOR SHALL HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO
RESPONSIBILITY THEREFOR, AND |
(iii) |
LESSEE,
BEING IN SOLE OPERATIONAL CONTROL OF THE AIRCRAFT AND BEING IN THE BUSINESS OF
OPERATING COMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT, IS UNIQUELY IN A POSITION TO IDENTIFY AND
IMPLEMENT THOSE MAINTENANCE AND SECURITY MEASURES AS ARE NECESSARY TO COMPLY
WITH ALL APPLICABLE REGULATIONS, AND AS ARE OTHERWISE |
8.4 |
Subleasing
and Wet leasing |
(a) |
LESSEE
WILL NOT, WITHOUT THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF LESSOR, SUB-LEASE OR PART WITH
POSSESSION OF THE AIRCRAFT, THE ENGINES OR ANY PART EXCEPT that Lessee may part
with possession (i) with respect to the Aircraft, the Engines or any Part to
the relevant manufacturers for testing or similar purposes or to a maintenance
facility for service, repair, maintenance or overhaul work, or alterations,
modifications or additions to the extent required or permitted by the Lease,
(ii) with respect to an Engine or Part, as expressly permitted by the Lease,
and (iii) on a wet-lease which complies with Clause 8.4(d). |
(b) |
Lessor
shall grant its consent to a proposed sublease (a “Permitted
Sub-Lease”) of the
Aircraft to a sublessee (the “Permitted
Sub-Lessee”) by
Lessee if the following conditions are fulfilled: |
(i) |
No
Default shall have occurred and be continuing; |
(ii) |
notwithstanding
such Permitted Sub-Lease, Lessee shall remain primarily responsible to Lessor
hereunder and the Permitted Sub-Lease, by its terms, shall be expressly subject
and subordinate in all respects to the Lease; |
(iii) |
the
Permitted Sub-Lease shall include clauses identical to or having the same
substantive effect as Clauses 2.1, 5.6, 5.7(a), 5.8, 5.10, 5.12, 5.16(a),
5.17(a), 5.22, 8 (excluding Clause 8.4), 9, 10, 11, 13, 15.1, 15.8 (subject to
the final two sentences of this sub-clause (iii)) and 16, and Schedules 2
(Clause 1.1), 7 and 9 of the Lease save that a Permitted Sub-Lease may impose
additional or more stringent obligations on, or give fewer rights to, any
sublessee than are imposed on Lessee under the provisions of the Lease and that
the term of the Permitted Sub-Lease shall not be capable of extending beyond
the Expiry Date. In connection with any Permitted Sub-Lease, Lessee shall use
reasonable endeavours to procure that the governing law of the Permitted
Sub-Lease shall be New York law or English law. However, the governing law may
be the law of another country if the legal opinion (of counsel qualified in
such country) attached to the Permitted Sub-Lease states that the Permitted
Sub-Lease constitutes binding and enforceable obligations of the sublessee
under such law (such opinion may be subject to qualifications acceptable to
Lessor and its advisors, being such qualifications as are normal to opinions
given by U.S. or English counsel in relation to similar
transactions); |
(iv) |
the
rights, title and interests of Lessor in and to the Aircraft and the Lease
shall be duly evidenced and protected to the satisfaction of Lessor (including
as to the making of all necessary filings and registrations) and such interests
shall not, in Lessor’s reasonable opinion, be prejudiced by the Permitted
Sub-Lease; |
(v) |
Lessee
and the Permitted Sub-Lessee shall have executed and delivered to Lessor a
security assignment in respect of the Permitted Sub-Lease together with an
acknowledgement of such assignment each such document to be in such form as
Lessor shall reasonably require, provided always that such security assignment
shall not require Lessor to give its prior consent to: (aa) any modification or
variation of the amount of rent payable by the Permitted |
(vi) |
the
Permitted Sub-Lessee shall be a reputable air carrier and shall, on or before
delivery of the Aircraft to the Permitted Sub-Lessee under the Permitted
Sub-Lease, hold all necessary consents, licenses, approvals, permits and
authorizations
required under the applicable law of the state of incorporation or
establishment of such carrier for the public transport of passengers or cargo
and operation of the Aircraft; |
(vii) |
the
Aircraft shall not be re-registered outside the State of Registry without the
prior written consent of Lessor which shall not be unreasonably withheld.
Lessor shall be entitled to withhold such consent if the Sub-Lessee is based or
incorporated in a jurisdiction which Lessor reasonably determines to be
unacceptable in terms of political or judicial risk; |
(viii) |
prior to
delivery of the Aircraft to the Permitted Sub-Lessee, Lessee shall deliver to
Lessor the equivalent of the Lessor Conditions Precedent applicable to such
Permitted Sub-Lessee and, within a reasonable period prior to the execution by
Lessee of any sublease, Lessee will provide Lessor with a copy of the draft
sublease in order for Lessor to satisfy itself that the conditions set out in
this Clause as to form of the sublease are fulfilled. Prior to delivery of the
Aircraft under any sublease, Lessee will provide Lessor with an original
counterpart of the sublease duly executed by Lessee and Sub-Lessee;
|
(ix) |
Lessee
shall be responsible for all reasonable costs incurred by Lessor in connection
with the Permitted Sub-Lease; |
(x) |
the
Permitted Sub-Lease shall provide that no further subleases of the Aircraft by
the Permitted Sub-Lessee shall be permitted, except that the Permitted
Sub-Lessee may enter into a wet lease which conforms generally to the
requirements of a wet lease as set forth in Clause 8.4 (d) below and/or an
interchange arrangement with respect to the Aircraft on the terms set out in
the Lease; and |
(xi) |
Lessee
shall give written notice to Lessor of any proposed sublease at least thirty
(30) days prior to the date on which it is proposed that such sublease be
executed (which notice shall include the identity of any proposed change in the
State of Registry and the Habitual Base of the Aircraft and, if then
determined, the term and the delivery date of the proposed
sublease). |
(c) |
In
circumstances where the conditions set out in (b) above are not fulfilled in
relation to any proposed Permitted Sub-Lease, the consent of Lessor to such
Permitted Sub-Lease shall not be unreasonably withheld. |
(d) |
Lessee
shall be permitted to wet lease the Aircraft provided such wet lease
constitutes an arrangement whereby Lessee agrees to furnish the Aircraft to a
third party pursuant to which the Aircraft (i) shall be operated solely by
regular employees of Lessee possessing all current certificates and licenses
that are required by applicable Regulations, including by the State of
Registry, and shall remain in the operational control and possession of Lessee,
(ii) shall be subject to insurance coverage as provided for in the Lease, (iii)
shall be used and operated in accordance with the |

Representative’s representative to inspect the Aircraft at any time.
Unless a Default has occurred and is continuing, any such Person will give
Lessee reasonable notice of inspection and will ensure that it does not result
in a disruption to the regular operation of the Aircraft. Lessee shall comply
with the reasonable requests of Lessor’s and Owner’s and the
Financing Parties’ Representative’s representative during the course
of an inspection, including any request to travel on the flight deck of the
Aircraft as an observer, subject to any applicable
Regulations. |
(b) |
The cost
of conducting an inspection shall be borne by Lessor, Owner or the Financing
Parties’ Representative, as the case may be, unless an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing. |
(c) |

liability or obligation will be incurred by Lessor, Owner, Financing
Parties’ Representative or the Financing Parties, as the case may be, by
reason of non-exercise by any of them of the inspection rights referred to in
this Clause. |

Lessee
will: |
(i) |
fix and
maintain Nameplates containing the Nameplate Inscription in a prominent
position in the cockpit or cabin of the Aircraft and on each Engine as

circumstance where such interests are relevant, take all reasonable steps to
make sure that other relevant Persons know about the rights or interests of

including (without limitation) ensuring that wherever practicable the interests
of Lessor, Owner and the Financing Parties’ Representative are duly
registered in the International Registry. |
(b) |
Lessee
will not: |
(i) |
represent
that it is the owner of the Aircraft or that it has an economic interest
(equivalent to ownership) in the Aircraft for Tax treatment or other
purposes; |
(ii) |
do or
permit to be done anything which may reasonably be expected to expose the
Aircraft, any Engine or any Part to penalty, forfeiture, impounding, detention,
appropriation, damage or destruction and without prejudice to the foregoing, if
any such penalty, forfeiture, impounding, detention or appropriation, damage or
destruction occurs, give Lessor |

responsible for the business activities and/or flight operations of Lessee;
|
(iv) |
allow
the Aircraft or Owner’s, Lessor’s or any Financing Parties’
Representatives’ interest in it or the Lease to become or remain subject
to any Security Interest (other than a Permitted Lien); |

placed on the Aircraft or any Engine as a designation that could reasonably be
interpreted as a claim of ownership or as a Security Interest; provided that
Lessee may place thereon, or allow a Permitted Sub-Lessee to place thereon, its
customary livery, colors and insignia; or |
(vi) |
allow
any interests conflicting with (whether or not taking priority over) the
interests of Lessor, Owner, or the Financing Parties’ Representative to be
registered at the International Registry without the prior written consent of
Lessor, Owner or the Financing Parties’ Representative (as the case may
be). |

existence (other than as provided in subclause (f) below or in connection with
a solvent reconstruction or reorganization on terms which shall have previously
been approved in writing by Lessor); |

gives prior written consent to a change therein or as may otherwise be provided
in the Aircraft Lease Agreement; |
(c) |
not
operate, maintain, insure or deal with, or keep records with respect to, the
Aircraft in a manner which discriminates against the Aircraft adversely insofar
as Lessor’s, Owner’s or Financing Parties’ interests are
concerned, when compared with the manner in which Lessee operates, maintains,
insures or deals with, or keep records with respect to, similar aircraft,
engines or parts in Lessee’s fleet; |

completed VAT Form 60A to the Office of the Revenue Commissioners of Ireland in
the form attached as Schedule 12 (“Form 60A”) and shall supply a copy
of that application to Lessor. Lessee shall complete, execute and deliver (with
a copy to Lessor) a new Form 60A every two years after delivery of the initial
Form 60A. However, if more than 50% of Lessee’s operations occur on
international routes, then Lessee shall not be required to deliver to Lessor
Form 60A, but shall instead, promptly deliver to Lessor, upon Lessor’s
request, a statement that more than 50% of Lessee’s operations
|
(g) |
not
consolidate with or merge into or with any other corporation or other Person,
and not convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially
all of its property and other assets to, or acquire all or any substantial part
of the property or other assets or capital stock of (if such acquisition is
analogous in either purpose or effect to a consolidation or merger), any
corporation or other Person, unless Lessee provides Lessor, to the extent
permitted by Law, with not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice of
such transaction describing such transaction in reasonable detail and providing
Lessor with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lessor demonstrating that such
transaction will comply with the following requirements of this Clause and
unless: |

such
transaction shall not have any material adverse effect on the rights of Lessor,

existing under the laws of the State of Incorporation; (B) immediately after
giving effect to such transaction, shall be Lessee or shall have acquired or

immediately prior to such transaction; and (C) shall execute and deliver to
Lessor such recordations and filings with any Governmental Entity and such
other documents as Lessor determines shall be reasonably necessary or advisable
to evidence, or in connection with, such consolidation, merger, sale, lease,

reasonably satisfactory to Lessor which is a legal, valid and binding
assumption by such Successor Entity of the due and punctual performance and

basis which reflects the interests of Lessor, as lessor and Owner as owner, and
of the Financing Parities Representative to the greatest extent permitted by
applicable Law) and not do or suffer to be done anything which could reasonably
be expected to affect that registration; |
do all
acts and things (including, without limitation, making any filing or
registration with the Air Authority or any other Government Entity or as
required to comply with the Geneva Convention where applicable) and execute and
deliver, notarise, file, register and record all documents (including, without
limitation, any amendment of the Lease) as may be reasonably required by
Lessor: |

following any change or proposed change in the ownership or financing of the
Aircraft (and Lessor shall reimburse Lessee for all reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses, including legal fees, incurred by Lessee at the time of such change
in complying with Lessor’s requirements under this paragraph (i)); or
|
(ii) |
following
any modification of the Aircraft, any Engine or any Part or the permanent

time to time, at the request of the Lessor, to take any actions which the
Lessor reasonably determines should be taken to ensure that the Cape Town
Convention is applicable to the Lease and that the interests of any Indemnitee
in relation to the Aircraft are effectively registered at the International
Registry. This would include, in |
(d) |
where
requested by Lessor in writing, consent to one or more persons designated by
Lessor as Lessee’s professional user or professional user entity for
dealings with the International Registry in relation to the Aircraft and shall
not revoke that authority without Lessor’s prior written consent.

Lessee or the Aircraft is temporarily unairworthy while it is undergoing
maintenance or repair) and in good operating condition and
repair; |
(b) |
Lessee
has a current, valid certificate of airworthiness (issued by the Air Authority
in the appropriate public transport category) for the Aircraft, except where

carried out before the Return Occasion or within the AD Compliance Period;
|
(d) |
all
maintenance is carried out according to Lessee’s Maintenance Program
through the Maintenance Performer in at least the same manner and with at least
the same care, including maintenance scheduling, modification status and
technical condition, as is the case with respect to similar aircraft owned or
otherwise operated by Lessee; |
(e) |
all
repairs and Parts associated with such repairs must meet the applicable OEM
standard and specifications (approved or recommended by the OEM as the case may
be) except in the case of: |

and included in the OEM Aircraft or OEM Engine Illustrated |
(f) |
if any
Airworthiness Directive is issued by the FAA, or, to the extent that the same
have legal effect, the JAA, for which terminating action is required to be
performed by Lessee pursuant to Clause 8.10(c)and if the actual cost incurred
by Lessee (as evidenced by invoice(s) and supporting documentation reasonably
satisfactory to Lessor) in performing or causing to be performed such
Airworthiness Directive exceeds the AD Threshold, Lessor shall, following
receipt of the invoice in such amount and provided no Default has occurred and
is continuing, reimburse to Lessee an amount calculated in accordance with the
following formula: |
(a) |
General:
Lessee
must replace, within thirty (30) Business Days thereof, any Engine that has
suffered an Engine Event of Loss in accordance with Clause 8.11(b), and any
Part which is permanently removed from the Aircraft must be replaced in
accordance with Clause 8.11(b). Any Part which otherwise is lost, stolen,
destroyed, seized, obsolete, confiscated, damaged beyond repair or permanently
rendered unfit for any reason, must be replaced in accordance with Clause
8.11(b). Any Engine or Part may be installed on another aircraft Lessee owns or
leases in accordance with Clause 8.11(c). Lessee may temporarily install an
engine or part in accordance with Clause 8.11(d). Lessee shall obtain from the
owner and lessor of any airframe on which an Engine is installed and from any
holder of a Security Interest in any airframe on which an Engine is installed,
an agreement in writing (which agreement, in the case of a lease or Security
Interest, may be contained in the applicable lease or Security Interest
agreement covering such airframe) that such Person will respect the interests
of Owner and Lessor as owner and lessor, respectively, and of the Financing
Parties’ Representative, in such Engine and will not acquire or claim any
rights, title or interest in such Engine as a result of such Engine being
installed on such other airframe at any time while such Engine is subject to
the Lease. In the event Lessee shall have received from a lessor of or secured
party holding a Security Interest in any airframe leased to Lessee or owned by
Lessee a written agreement pursuant to the foregoing sentence and the lease or
Security Interest covering such airframe also covers an engine or engines owned
by the lessor under such lease or subject to such Security Interest in favor of
the secured party under such Security Interest, Lessor hereby agrees for the
benefit of such lessor or secured party that Lessor will respect the interest
of such lessor or secured party and will not acquire or claim as against such
lessor or secured party, any rights, title or interest in any such engine as a
result of such engine being installed on the Airframe at any time while such
engine is |
(b) |
Permanent
Replacement: If
Lessee permanently replaces an Engine or Part: |
(i) |
in the
case of an Engine, the replacement engine must be of the same manufacturer and
model, or at Lessee’s option an engine of an improved model, and have
equivalent or better remaining useful life, modification status, time elapsed
since hot section refurbishment, cold section refurbishment, reduction gear
overhaul, life limited part utility, serviceability and equivalent remaining
warranty status as the Engine it replaces, and is otherwise of an equivalent or
better value and utility and suitable for installation and use on the Airframe
without impairing the value or utility of the Airframe and compatible with the
remaining installed Engine(s); |
(ii) |
in the
case of a Part, the replacement part must be an OEM approved part except in the
case of: |
(aa) |
Parts
which are installed on the Airframe and are not classified as “Critical
Components” or Life Limited Components. A Critical Component means a Part
identified as critical by the FAA in accordance with FAA Order 8110.42B;
and |
(bb) |
All
Parts which are installed on the Engine and which are manufactured by a vendor
other than OEM and marked as PMA parts but which are licensed by the OEM and
included in the OEM Aircraft or OEM Engine Illustrated Parts Catalog
“IPC” (excluding any revisions to the IPC requested by Lessee to
include such parts); |
(iii) |
the
replacement engine or part must have become and remain, until replaced in
accordance with this Clause, the property of Owner free from Security Interests
(other than Permitted Liens), and subject to the applicable Financing Documents
(provided, that Lessee shall have been notified of the requirements of such
financing documents); |
(iv) |
Lessee
must have full details of the source and maintenance records of the replacement
engine or part and in the case of serialized rotable parts, also have a
complete service history; and |
(v) |
comply
with the requirements of the Financing Documents in connection with any such
replacement including to provide such legal opinions and other documents as may
be required under the Financing Documents. |
(c) |
Other
Aircraft: An
Engine or Part may be installed on an aircraft which Lessee owns or leases
if: |
(i) |
no Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing; |
(ii) |
Lessee
or a Permitted Sub-Lessee has operational control over the
aircraft; |
(iii) |
Owner
keeps the ownership of the Engine or Part concerned until replaced in
accordance with Clause 8.11(b); |
(iv) |
the
Engine or Part does not become subject to a Security Interest and the
applicable airframe is not subject to any Security Interest except a Permitted
Lien or a lease or Security Interest described in Clause 8.11(a) above;
|
(v) |
the
Engine or Part is replaced in accordance with Clause 8.11(b) or is removed from
the aircraft as soon as practicable under Lessee’s engine rotation program
but not later than the Expiry Date; and |
(vi) |
Insurance
is maintained by Lessee in respect of such Engine or Part in accordance with
the terms of the Lease. |
(d) |
Temporary
Replacement: Lessee
may install any engine or part on the Aircraft as a temporary replacement
if: |
(i) |
no Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing; |
(ii) |
there is
not available an engine or part complying with the requirements of the Lease
for a replacement Engine or Part; |
(iii) |
it would
result in an unreasonable disruption of the operation of the Aircraft or the
business of Lessee to have the Aircraft grounded until such time as an engine
or part complying with the requirements of the Lease for a replacement Engine
or Part becomes available for installation; |
(iv) |
as soon
as practicable (under Lessee’s engine rotation program in the case of an
engine) after an engine or part is installed on the Aircraft, but no later than
the Expiry Date, Lessee removes that engine or part and replaces it with the
original Engine or Part (or by an engine or part which is allowed by Clause
8.11(b)); and |
(v) |
the
Insurances for the Aircraft are not adversely affected. |
(e) |
Pooling/Interchange: So long
as no Default has occurred and is continuing Lessee may lease, let or hire or
charter or otherwise part with possession of an Engine or Part (on terms
conferring no more than a contractual right against Lessee but not rights
against the Engine or Part) pursuant to pooling arrangements approved by Lessor
to which Lessee is a party and which either: |
(i) |
are
arrangements involving responsible, solvent commercial air carriers or aircraft
operators or the manufacturers or suppliers of the Aircraft, Engine or
Part; |
(ii) |
do not
contemplate the transfer of title to the pooled Engine; and |
(iii) |
provide
that Lessor will be sole payee in respect of any loss or damage to the Engine
or Part or provide for Owner, as owner, to acquire title to a substitute
|
8.12 |
(a) |
is
expressly permitted or required by the Lease; or |
(b) |
has the
prior written approval of Lessor (such approval not to be unreasonably
withheld) and does not diminish or impair the value, utility, condition, or
airworthiness of the Aircraft (save that Lessor’s approval shall not be
required for painting or minor cabin interior modifications not affecting the
structure of the Aircraft). |
9. |
9.1 |
9.2 |
(a) |
comply
with the terms and conditions of each policy of the Insurances and not do,
consent or agree to any act or omission which: |
(i) |
invalidates
or may invalidate the Insurances; or |
(ii) |
renders
or may render void or voidable the whole or any part of any of the Insurances;
or |
(iii) |
brings
any particular liability within the scope of an exclusion or exception to the
Insurances; |
(b) |
not take
out without the prior written approval of Lessor any insurance or reinsurance
in respect of the Aircraft other than that which is required under the Lease
unless relating solely to hull total loss, business interruption, profit
commission, engine breakdown cover and deductible risk and which does not in
any event adversely affect the Insurances required to be maintained hereunder;
|
(c) |
commence
renewal procedures at least thirty (30) days prior to expiry of any of the
Insurances and provide to Lessor: |
(i) |
if
requested by Lessor, a written status report of renewal negotiation fourteen
(14) days prior to each expiry date of the Insurances; |
(ii) |
telecopy
confirmation of completion of renewal prior to each policy expiry date;
|
(iii) |
certificates
of insurance (and where appropriate certificates of reinsurance), and
broker’s (and any reinsurance broker’s) letter of undertaking in a
form acceptable to Lessor in English, detailing the coverage and confirming the
insurers’ (and any reinsurers’) agreement to the specified insurance
requirements of the Lease and opining that the Insurances comply with the
requirements of the Lease within seven (7) days after each renewal date;
|
(d) |
on
request, provide to Lessor copies of documents or other information evidencing
the Insurances; and |
(e) |
provide
any other insurance and reinsurance related information, or assistance, in
respect of the Insurances as Lessor may reasonably require. |
(a) |
to pay
the premiums due or to effect and maintain insurances satisfactory to it or
otherwise remedy Lessee’s failure in such manner (including, without
limitation to effect and maintain an “owner’s interest” policy)
as it considers appropriate so as to ensure that the relevant requirements of
the Lease are complied with. Any sums so expended by it will become immediately
due and payable by Lessee to Lessor together with interest thereon at the
Interest Rate, from the date of expenditure by it up to the date of
reimbursement by Lessee; and |
(b) |
at any
time while such failure is continuing to require the Aircraft to remain at any
airport or to proceed to and remain at any airport designated by it until the
failure is remedied to its satisfaction. |
10. |
(a) |
Except
as provided in Clause 10(b) below, Lessee agrees to assume liability for and to
indemnify each of the Indemnitees against and agrees to pay on demand any and
all Losses which an Indemnitee suffers or incurs at any time, whether directly
or indirectly, arising out of, related to or in any way connected
with: |
(i) |
the
ownership, maintenance, repair, possession, transfer of ownership or
possession, import, export, registration, storage, modification, leasing,
insurance, inspection, testing, design, date processing, subleasing, use,
condition or other matters relating to the Aircraft (regardless of whether such
Losses are based on strict liability in tort, any act or omission, including
the negligence, of any Indemnitee, or otherwise); or |
(ii) |
any
breach by Lessee of any of its obligations under the Lease;
or |
(iii) |
the
design of any article or material in the Aircraft, any Engine or any Part or
its operation, including any defect in design and regardless of whether it is
discoverable, and any infringement of patent, copyright, trademark, design or
other proprietary right claimed by any Person or a breach of any obligation of
confidentiality claimed to be owed to any Person. |
(b) |
Lessee
is not required to indemnify any particular Indemnitee under this Clause, to
the extent a particular Loss is: |
(i) |
caused
solely by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of that
Indemnitee; |
(ii) |
caused
solely by Lessor’s breach of the Lease which does not result from a
Default; |
(iii) |
related
to any Taxes; |
(iv) |
is
expressly subject to indemnification of the same Indemnitee by another
provision of the Lease; |
(v) |
consists
of (a) a loss of profit to an Indemnitee, (b) a dimunition in the value of the
Aircraft other than due to an Event of Loss, (c) Lessor’s normal
administrative costs and expenses, or (d) costs and expenses expressly imposed
by the Lease on Lessor except in a case where any of (a) through (d) is caused
by Lessee’s breach of its obligations under the Lease; |
(vi) |
caused
solely by an event which occurs before the commencement of the Term (except
where the Loss is suffered during the Term as a result of a pre-Delivery defect
in or otherwise arises out of or relates to or is any way connected with the
manufacture, design, maintenance, repair, rebuilding, overhaul or modification
of the Aircraft); or |
(vii) |
caused
solely by an event which occurs after the proper redelivery of the Aircraft to
Lessor hereunder and is not attributable to any act, omission, event or
circumstance occurring prior to such redelivery. |
(c) |
In the
event that Lessor or another Indemnitee recovers separate, non-revocable
compensation for a Loss from a third party which duplicates in whole or in part
the indemnification received from Lessee hereunder, Lessor or such other
Indemnitee, as the case may be, shall reimburse Lessee to the extent of such
duplicate payment. |
(d) |
Lessor
agrees that it shall, promptly after it has actual knowledge of a claim which
will give rise to a Loss described in Clause 10 (a) ( a “Claim”),
give written notice (providing reasonable details) of such Claim to Lessee,
whereupon, provided no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Lessee
shall have the right, upon receipt of Lessor’s prior written consent
(which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to assume and
conduct promptly and diligently the defense of the relevant Indemnitee with
respect to a Claim, provided further that: |
(i) |
Lessee
shall have consulted, and continue to consult, with Lessor as to the
appropriate defense; |
(ii) |
Lessee
shall have made adequate provision or reserve with respect to such Claim and
any associated costs and expenses (having regard to the nature and amount of
such Claim, cost and expense) and shall have indemnified or agreed to indemnify
the Indemnitees as a result of such Claim or its defense by
Lessee; |
(iii) |
None of
the Indemnitees shall be prevented by this Clause 10(d) from settling or paying
any Claim immediately if such Indemnitee is absolutely required by applicable
law to do so, and it will use all commercially reasonable efforts to preserve
Lessee’s rights and ability to contest such Claim; and |
(iv) |
Lessor
shall be entitled, upon consultation with and prior written notice to Lessee,
to terminate Lessee’s participation in the defense of a Claim where an act
or failure to act by Lessee indicates that the interest of the Indemnitees
could reasonably be expected to be materially adversely prejudiced by
Lessee’s continued defense of such Claim. |
(e) |
The
delay or failure of Lessor to give notice to Lessee in accordance with Clause
10(d) will not discharge or release Lessee from any of its Indemnification
obligations under Clause 10(a), provided, however, that Lessee shall not be
required to indemnify Lessor in respect of any increase in any Claim to the
extent that that increase arises solely and directly as a result of a breach by
Lessor of its obligations to notify lessee in accordance with Clause
10(d). |
11. |
11.1 |
(a) |
If an
Event of Loss occurs prior to Delivery of the Aircraft, the Lease will
immediately terminate and except as expressly stated in the Lease neither party
will have any further obligation, other than pursuant to Clause 5.21 and Clause
3 of Schedule 4, except that Lessor will promptly return the Deposit (if any)
to Lessee and return to Lessee or cancel any Letter of Credit or
Guaranty. |
(b) |
If an
Event of Loss occurs after Delivery, Lessee will pay the Agreed Value to Lessor
on or prior to the earlier of (i) sixty (60) Business Days after the Event of
Loss and (ii) the date of receipt of insurance proceeds in respect of that
Event of Loss (in either case the “Settlement Date”), unless within
that period the Aircraft is restored to Lessor or Lessee and all damage has
been fully repaired to Lessor’s satisfaction (or, in the case of an Event
of Loss coming within paragraph (c) of the definition of Event of Loss and
involving loss of Owner’s title to the Aircraft, if both Owner’s
title to the Aircraft is restored and possession of the aircraft is restored to
either Lessor or Lessee). |
(c) |
The
receipt by Lessor of the insurance proceeds in respect of the Event of Loss on
or prior to the Settlement Date shall discharge Lessee from its obligation to
pay the Agreed Value to the Lessor pursuant to this Clause 11.1, provided such
proceeds are not less than the Agreed Value. If the insurance proceeds are paid
initially to Lessee and not to Lessor, they may be retained by Lessee if Lessee
shall have paid the Agreed Value to Lessor, otherwise Lessee shall pay the
Agreed Value to Lessor within 3 Business Days of the receipt by Lessee of such
proceeds (but, in any event, not later than the Settlement Date). If Lessee
pays the Agreed Value to Lessor in accordance with this Clause 11.1(c) and
provided, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Lessor
shall promptly assign to Lessee its rights under the Insurances to receive the
insurance proceeds in respect of the Event of Loss (to the extent that such
proceeds shall not have been paid to Lessee and, provided further, that upon
cure or non-continuance of any such Event of Default, Lessee shall be entitled
to an assignment of such rights). |
(d) |
Subject
to the rights of any insurers and reinsurers or other third party, upon
irrevocable payment in full to Lessor of the Agreed Value and all other amounts
which may be or become payable to Lessor under the Lease, and if Lessee
requests such transfer, Lessor will, or will procure that Owner will, without
recourse or warranty (except as to the absence of Lessor’s Liens) transfer
to Lessee or will procure that Owner transfers to Lessee legal and beneficial
title, subject to no Lessor’s Liens (but otherwise without warranty), to
the Aircraft, on an AS IS, WHERE IS basis, and will at Lessee’s expense,
execute and deliver or will procure that Owner executes and delivers such bills
of sale and other documents and instruments as Lessee may reasonably request to
evidence (on the public record or otherwise) such transfer, free and clear of
all rights of Lessor and Owner and Lessor Liens. Lessee shall indemnify, on an
After-Tax Basis, Lessor, Owner and each other Tax Indemnitee for all fees,
expenses and Taxes other than Lessor Taxes incurred by Lessor, Owner or any
other Tax Indemnitee in connection with any such transfer. |
11.2 |
(a) |
the Rent
and other charges payable under the Lease will not be suspended or abated
either in whole or in part, and Lessee will not be released from any of its
other obligations (other than operational and maintenance obligations with
which Lessee is unable to comply solely by virtue of the requisition, provided
that promptly following the expiry of such requisition Lessee shall restore the
Aircraft to the condition required by the Lease); and |
(b) |
so long
as no Default has occurred and is continuing, Lessee will be entitled to any
compensation paid by the requisitioning authority in respect of such
authority’s use of the Aircraft, such Engine or such Part during the Term
(provided, that upon cure of any such Default, Lessee shall be entitled to any
such hire paid by the requisitioning authority) . Lessee will, as soon as
practicable after the end of any such requisition, cause the Aircraft to be put
into the condition required by the Lease. Lessor will be entitled to all
compensation payable by the requisitioning authority in respect of any change
in the structure, state or condition of the Aircraft arising during the period
of requisition, and Lessor will apply such compensation in reimbursing Lessee
for the cost of complying with its obligations under the Lease in respect of
any such change, but, if any Default has occurred and is continuing, Lessor may
apply the compensation in or towards settlement of any amounts owing by Lessee
under the Lease. |
12.1 |
12.2 |
(a) |
Lessee
shall promptly rectify such non-compliance or failure; |
(b) |
Lessee
shall not use the Aircraft in flight operations except those related directly
to the redelivery of the Aircraft to Lessor; |
(c) |
all
Lessee’s obligations and covenants under the Lease will remain in full
force until Lessee so redelivers the Aircraft; and |
(d) |
Lessee
shall pay Rent to Lessor at a rate per month equal to the amount of Rent
payable in respect of the last scheduled Rental Period, calculated on a per
diem basis. |
12.3 |
12.4 |
13. |
13.1 |
13.2 |
(a) |
accept
such repudiation and by notice to Lessee and with immediate and automatic
effect cause the cancellation of the leasing of the Aircraft (but without
prejudice to the continuing obligations of Lessee under the Lease or to
Lessor’s right to recover damages under paragraph (c) hereof and to be
indemnified against Loss under Clause 13.3), whereupon all rights of Lessee
under the Lease shall cease; and/or |
(b) |
proceed
by appropriate court action or actions to enforce performance of the Lease
including the payment of all Rent and all other amounts payable to Lessor or
any Indemnitee pursuant to the terms of the Lease; and/or |
(c) |
proceed
by appropriate court action or actions to recover damages (including without
limitation in respect of any Loss as described in Clause 13.3)for the breach of
the Lease; |
(d) |
either: |
(i) |
enter
upon the premises where all or any part of the Aircraft is located and take
immediate possession of and, at Lessor’s sole option, remove the same
(and/or any engine which is not an Engine but which is installed on the
Airframe, subject to the rights of the lessor or secured party thereof), all
without liability accruing to Lessor for or by reason of such entry or taking
of possession whether for the restoration of damage to property, conversion or
otherwise, caused by such entry or taking, except damages caused by gross
negligence or willful misconduct; or |
(e) |
draw
upon the Deposit or the Letter of Credit and apply such amounts to any amounts
owing to Lessor hereunder and/or make demand against any Guarantor for any or
all of the foregoing. |
13.3 |
(a) |
any loss
of profit suffered by Lessor because of Lessor’s inability to place the
Aircraft on lease with another lessee on terms as favorable to Lessor as the
Lease, or because whatever use, if any, to which Lessor is able to put the
Aircraft upon its return to Lessor, or the funds arising upon a sale or other
disposal of the Aircraft, is not as profitable to Lessor as the Lease;
|
(b) |
any
amount of principal, interest, fees or other sums whatsoever paid or payable on
account of funds borrowed in order to carry any unpaid amount;
|
(c) |
any Loss
which may be incurred in repaying funds raised to finance the Aircraft or in
unwinding any swap, forward interest rate agreement or other financial
instrument relating in whole or in part to Lessor’s financing of the
Aircraft; and |
(d) |
any Loss
sustained or incurred by Lessor in or as a result of exercising any of its
rights or remedies pursuant to Clause 13.2 or as a result of Lessee’s
failure to redeliver the Aircraft on the date, at the place and in the
condition required by the Lease. |
13.4 |
13.5 |
13.6 |
13.7 |
14. |
14.2 |
(a) |
a sale
and leaseback; or |
(b) |
a
novation or assignment of the Lease and/or a sale of the Aircraft (including to
a special purpose or securitization or monetization trust, fund, limited
liability company, corporation, partnership or other vehicle or in connection
with any other direct or indirect raising of capital); or |
(c) |
a
secured loan financing. |
14.3 |
(a) |
Quiet
Enjoyment: as a
condition precedent to such Transfer becoming effective, Lessor will procure
that the transferee or any new owner of the Aircraft (except where such new
owner is also the “Lessor” hereunder) or any new holder of a mortgage
over the Aircraft or any holder of an interest in the Aircraft or the Lease (by
way of security or otherwise), as the case may be, shall execute and deliver to
Lessee a letter of quiet enjoyment in respect of Lessee’s use and
possession of the Aircraft in a form substantially similar to Clause 7.1
hereof; and |
(b) |
Costs: Lessor
shall reimburse to Lessee its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including
reasonable legal fees and expenses) actually incurred in connection with
co-operating with Lessor in relation to any such Transfer referred to in this
Clause 14, provided that such expenses are substantiated to Lessor’s
reasonable satisfaction and provided, further, that no Default has occurred and
is continuing; and |
(c) |
Transferee:
Any
transferee of Lessor’s interest in the Lease pursuant to a transfer
described in clause (b) of Clause 14.2, the effect of which is to result
in a release of Lessor from its obligations under the Lease, shall be a Person
(i) that is not, and no subsidiary of such Person nor any shareholder or parent
that controls or owns directly or indirectly more than 50% of the voting
capital of such Person, or any |
(d) |
No
Increase to Lessee’s Obligations: No
Transfer by Lessor shall have any adverse effect upon Lessee’s then
existing rights and obligations under the Lease or result in any increased
financial liability (including without limitation, any greater liability in
respect of Taxes) on the part of Lessee that would not have occurred but for
such Transfer having been effected. |
15. |
15.1 |
(a) |
Illegality
affecting Lessor or the Lease: If it is
or becomes unlawful in any relevant jurisdiction for Lessor to give effect to
any of its obligations as contemplated by the Lease or to continue the
Lease: |
(i) |
Lessor
shall advise Lessee of such illegality and Lessor and Lessee shall consult with
each other in good faith (and on reasonable grounds) regarding any steps which
may be a taken to restructure the transaction to avoid such
illegality; |
(ii) |
If,
following the consultation referred to in subclause (i) above, Lessor is of the
reasonable opinion that the transaction may be so restructured without having a
material adverse effect on Lessee and/or any Indemnitee, then the transaction
shall be so restructured, at Lessor’s cost; and |
(iii) |
If,
following the consultation referred to in subclause (i) above, Lessor is of the
reasonable opinion that the transaction may not be so restructured without
having a material adverse effect on Lessee and/or any Indemnitee, then Lessor
may by notice in writing to Lessee terminate the leasing of the Aircraft under
the Lease, whereupon: |
(A) |
Lessee
shall redeliver the Aircraft to Lessor in accordance with Clause 12 and
Schedule 6 at the latest point in time permitted having regard to the
illegality and Lessor shall make the payments and take the steps (as
appropriate) as prescribed and within the timeframe set forth in subclauses (i)
- (iii) of Clause 5.11 of this CTA; and |
(B) |
no
Default shall be deemed to have occurred and Lessor shall not (in such case) be
entitled to the benefit of Clause 13.3 of this CTA. |
(i) |
If it
becomes unlawful for Lessee to perform any of its obligations under the Lease
or the Lease becomes wholly or partly invalid or unenforceable, then, in such a
case, Lessor and Lessee shall consult together. If, following such
consultation, Lessor, acting reasonably, is of the opinion that alternative
arrangements are reasonably practicable and acceptable to Lessor, Lessor and
Lessee shall cooperate in good faith and on reasonable grounds and enter into
such alternative arrangements (at no cost to Lessor) to enable the transaction
contemplated by the Lease to continue on a lawful, valid and enforceable basis;
provided always that the rights and interests of each Indemnitee will not
thereby be materially prejudiced. |
(ii) |
If no
such alternative arrangements shall have been entered into within thirty
Business Days of the commencement of the illegality, invalidity or
unenforceability (as the case may be), then Lessor may at its option (and
without prejudice to any of its other rights under the Lease) at any time
thereafter, by notice to Lessee but with immediate effect, terminate the
letting of the Aircraft (but without prejudice to the continuing obligations of
Lessee under the Lease), whereupon all rights of Lessee under the Lease shall
cease and (A) Lessee shall immediately comply with Clause 12 and (B) the
provisions of Clauses 13.3, 13.4, 13.5, and 13.6 of this CTA shall apply as if
each reference therein to an Event of Default were a reference to the
occurrence of such unlawfulness, invalidity or unenforceability and to such
termination, provided that the provisions of this Clause 15.1(b) shall only
extend to partial illegality, invalidity, or unenforceability where, in
Lessor’s reasonable opinion, such partial illegality, invalidity or
unenforceability would materially adversely affect the interest of Lessor in
the Aircraft, the rights of Lessor under the Lease or Lessee’s ability to
perform its obligations under the Lease. |
(iii) |
The
eventualities described in this Clause 15.1(b) shall not be Events of Default,
but shall be lease termination events entitling Lessor to exercise the rights
described in Clause 15.1(b)(ii); provided, always, that any failure by Lessee
to comply with any of its obligations under Clause 15.1(b)(ii) shall constitute
an Event of Default entitling Lessor to invoke the rights and remedies provided
in the case of an Event of Default including without limitation those accorded
by Clause 13.2 . |
15.3 |
15.4 |
(a) |
the
legality, validity or enforceability in that jurisdiction of any other
provision of the Lease; or |
(b) |
the
legality, validity or enforceability in any other jurisdiction of that or any
other provision of the Lease. |

necessary corporate and other action have been taken to enable the person
acting on behalf of the Lessee to sign and deliver the Lessee Documents and to
enable the Lessee to perform the obligations undertaken by it thereunder. The
execution and delivery of the Lessee Documents, the consummation by the Lessee
of the transactions contemplated therein and compliance by the Lessee with the
terms and provisions thereof do not and will not (a) contravene any applicable
Law relating to Lessee or (b) result in any breach of or constitute any default
under or result in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any
property of Lessee under any indenture, mortgage, chattel mortgage, deed of
trust, conditional sales contract, bank loan or credit agreement, corporate
charter, by-law or other agreement or instrument to which Lessee is a party or
by which Lessee or its properties or assets may be bound or
affected. |
[4. |
The
Aircraft is duly registered in the public Aircraft Registry in Chile in the
name of Lessor as lessor and in the name of Lessor as owner and recording the
Lessee as lessee and operator. Such registration of the Aircraft is not
inconsistent with and would not result in the loss of, Lessor’s title to
and ownership of the Aircraft. Except for the foregoing, no other filing or
recording of any instrument or document or any other acts are necessary or
advisable under the laws of Chile to protect Lessor’s title to and
ownership of the Aircraft - NB NOT RELEVANT IF AIRCRAFT IS REGISTERED OUTSIDE
CHILE]. |
5. |
Except
for filing of the Lease with the Dirección
General de Aeronáutica Civil, no
filing or recording of any instrument or document (including the filing of any
financial statement) is necessary under the laws of Chile in order for the
Lease to constitute a valid and perfected Lease of record relating to the
Aircraft, it being understood that we express no opinion as to the nature of
the Lessor’s title to the Aircraft on the Delivery Date.
|
6. |
Lessee
holds all licenses, certificates and permits from applicable governmental
authorities in Chile necessary for the conduct of its business as a certified
air carrier and performance of its obligations under the Lease, including
importing the Aircraft to Chile for the duration of the Term and to make the
payments provided for by the Lease. |
7. |
To the
best of my knowledge, there are no suits or proceedings pending or threatened
against Lessee before any Government Entity against or affecting Lessee which,
if adversely determined, would have a material adverse effect on the financial
condition or business of Lessee or its ability to perform under
the Lease. |
8. |
Under
the laws of Chile, Lessee will not be required to make or deduct any
withholding or other Tax from any payment it may make under the
Lease. |
9. |
The
obligations of Lessee under
the Lessee
Documents are direct, general and unconditional obligations of LESSEE
and rank at
least pari
passu with all
other present and future unsecured and unsubordinated obligations
(including
contingent obligations) of Lessee, with
the exception of such obligations as are mandatorily preferred by law and not
by reason of any encumbrance. |
10. |
Lessee,
under the laws of Chile or of any other jurisdiction affecting Lessee, is
subject to private commercial law and suit in its own name. Neither Lessee nor
its properties or assets have the right of immunity from suit or execution on
the grounds of sovereignty in such jurisdictions and the performance by Lessee
of its obligations under the Lessee Documents constitutes commercial acts done
for commercial purposes. |
12. |
On the
termination of the leasing of the Aircraft under the Lease, Lessor would be
entitled to repossess the Aircraft, [to deregister the Aircraft from the
register of the Air Authority] and to export the Aircraft from Chile without
requiring any further consents, approvals or licenses from any governmental or
regulatory authority in Chile. |
13. |
There is
no applicable usury or interest limitation law in Chile which may restrict the
recovery of payments in accordance with the Lease; |
14. |
The
addressee hereof will not violate any law or regulation in Chile_ nor become
liable to tax in Chile, or be deemed domiciled, a resident or carrying on any
commercial activity or business in Chile by reason of entering into or
performing its obligations under the Lessee Documents and it is not necessary
to establish a place of business in Chile or to be licensed, qualified or
entitled to do business in Chile or to file any notice, report or other
document in order to enforce any provisions of the Lessee
Documents.; |
15. |
There
are no stamp duties, transfer taxes or other taxes of any kind payable in Chile
or imposed by any Governmental Entity in Chile in
connection with the signature, performance, filing
or enforcement by legal proceedings of the Lessee Documents, save the duty to
be paid at the time the Lease is registered. |
16. |
The choice
of New York
law to
govern the Lessee
Documents will be
upheld in any
action in the courts of Chile.
Any judgment given by court in the State of New York in the United States of
America (the “Foreign Jurisdiction”) would be
recognized and accepted by the courts in
Chile. A final judgment against Lessee for the payment of money obtained
without fraud in any such court pursuant to service of process on an agent of
Lessee in the manner specified in the Lease providing for such service of
process would be recognized, conclusive and enforceable in the courts of Chile
provided that the general requirements for the enforcement in Chile of
judgments of a foreign court have been met, the satisfaction or
non-satisfaction of which would be determined by the Supreme Court of Chile.
The rules governing the enforcement in Chile of judgments passed by foreign
courts are the following: |
(i) |
If there
were a treaty in force between Chile and the United States of America with
respect to the enforcement of foreign judgments, the provisions of such treaty,
would be applied. At the date hereof, there is no such treaty in force between
Chile and the United States of America. |
(ii) |
If there
were no such treaty, the judgment would be enforced if there were reciprocity
as to the enforcement of judgments (i.e. a court sitting in the Foreign
Jurisdiction would enforce a comparable judgment of a Chilean court in
comparable circumstances). |
(iii) |
If it
could be proven that there were no such reciprocity, the judgment could not be
enforced. |
(iv) |
If the
previous rules cannot be applied, the judgment would be enforced if it were not
contrary to public policy of Chile and had not been rendered by default within
the meaning of Chilean law. |
(a) |
The
court in the Foreign Jurisdiction rendering the judgment had jurisdiction,
under the law of the Foreign Jurisdiction, over Lessee and the subject matter
of the suit; |
(b) |
The
judgment is enforceable in the Foreign Jurisdiction; |
(c) |
Lessee
(or its process agent designated pursuant to the Lease) received due notice of
the suit (assuming such manner of service to be valid under the law of the
Foreign Jurisdiction) and was afforded an opportunity to defend itself in such
suit; |
(d) |
The
document in which the judgment is set forth has been duly legalized by the
Chilean Consul in the Foreign Jurisdiction; and |
(e) |
The text
of the judgment has been duly translated into Spanish by a sworn public
translator in Chile. |
17. |
No steps
have been, or are being taken to
appoint a receiver or
liquidator or trustee in bankruptcy or
similar officer over, or to wind- up, the
Lessee. |
18. |
There are
no laws or other rules in Chile (including, without limitation, emergency
powers laws) pursuant to which Lessee may be deprived of the Aircraft by any
Government Entity in Chile or any other person, other than Lessor or any
assignee of Lessor. |
19. |
The
Deregistration Power of Attorney is fully effective to authorize the Attorney
named therein to act in accordance with the terms set out therein, and a duly
appointed appointee of the Attorney named therein may (to the extent permitted
by its appointment) serve as agent for the Attorney and perform any and all
acts authorized therein as if originally authorized therein; the Deregistration
Power of Attorney cannot be revoked by Lessee and would not terminate or lapse
in the event of steps being taken for the cessation of activities, protection
from creditors, winding up or dissolution of Lessee. |
(a) |
Non-payment: Lessee
fails to make any payment of Rent or any other amount payable under the Lease
within five Business Days of the due date for payment. Provided that such
failure shall not be an Event of Default if (i) it occurs solely for technical
reasons affecting the transfer of funds, despite timely payment instructions by
Lessee to the bank concerned and (ii) payment is received no later than 5
Business Days after Lessor has informed Lessee of the non receipt of funds
(telephone notice for this purpose suffices) ; or |
(b) |
Insurance: Lessee
fails to comply with any provision of Clause 9 or Schedule 7, or any insurance
required to be maintained under the Lease is cancelled or terminated, or a
notice of cancellation is given in respect of any such insurance and such

that in the case of Insurances with respect to which avoidance or cancellation
will not be effective against Lessor or the other additional assureds for
thirty (30) days, or seven (7) days in the case of war risk, after issue of the
notice to Lessor of such avoidance or cancellation, no such failure to carry
and maintain the Insurances shall constitute an Event of Default if no later
than five (5) Business Days prior to such avoidance or cancellation taking
effect Lessee is able to procure to the satisfaction of Lessor that such
Insurances will not be avoided or cancelled; or |
(c) |
Breach: Lessee
fails to comply with any other provision of the Lease not referenced in this
Schedule 9 and, if such failure is in the reasonable opinion of Lessor capable
of remedy, such failure continues for 25 Business Days after notice from Lessor
to Lessee; or |
(d) |
Representation: any
representation or warranty made (or deemed to be repeated) by Lessee in or
pursuant to the Lease or in any document or certificate or statement is or
proves to have been incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed to be
repeated, and Lessor is, in its reasonable opinion, materially and adversely
effected thereby; provided, however, that any representation which shall be
deemed repeated which will be untrue due to a change in Law (without giving
effect to any act or omission by Lessee) shall not be an Event of Default, but
rather shall be addressed as provided in Clause 15.1(b) of this CTA; or
|
(e) |
*** |
(f) |
Approvals: any
consent, authorization, license, certificate or approval of or registration

authorization required by Lessee to authorize, or in connection with, the
execution, delivery, validity, enforceability or admissibility in evidence of
the Lease or the performance by Lessee of its obligations under the
Lease; |
(iii) |

registration of the Aircraft or the Aircraft’s certificate of

purposes of a reconstruction, merger or amalgamation neither involving nor
arising out of the insolvency or potential insolvency of Lessee the terms of
which have been previously approved by Lessor, (which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed); or |
(h) |
Disposal: Lessee
or any Lessee Affiliate disposes, conveys or transfers or threatens to dispose,
convey or transfer of all or a material part of its assets and, in

its obligations under the Lease or Lessee or any Lessee Affiliate, liquidates
or dissolves or consolidates or merges with any other Person (whether by one or
a series of transactions, related or not) and in the case of a Lessee
Affiliate, such liquidation, dissolution, consolidation or merger has or is
likely to have, in Lessor’s reasonable opinion, a material adverse effect
on Lessee’s ability to perform its obligations under the Lease;
or |

validity, enforceability or priority of the Lease or the rights of Lessor as
lessor or of Owner as owner in respect of the Aircraft or Financing
Parties’ Representative as holder of a first priority Security Interest in
the Aircraft and the Lease; or |
(j) |
Change
of Control: any

materially and adversely affect the ability of Lessee to perform all or any of
its obligations under, or to otherwise comply with the material terms of, the

Guaranty. The

punctual performance of all of the Lessee’s obligations under the Lease
Agreement, including without limitation the full and punctual payment of all

the Lease Agreement. Upon failure by the Lessee to perform punctually any such
obligations or to pay punctually any such amounts, the Guarantor shall
forthwith on demand perform such obligation or pay such amounts at the place in
the manner specified in the Lease Agreement. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the obligations guaranteed hereby shall include all obligations
to pay amounts and to perform duties as set forth in the Lease Agreement,
notwithstanding the fact that the same do not accrue, are not payable or are
not incurred by Lessee as a result of any insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation,

continuing, irrevocable Guaranty, and shall apply to all obligations guaranteed
hereunder whenever arising. |

f) |
the
existence of any claim, set-off or other rights which the Guarantor may have at

person, whether in connection herewith or any unrelated transactions provided
that nothing herein shall prevent the assertion of any such claim by separate
suit or compulsory counterclaim; |
g) |
any
invalidity or unenforceability in relation to or against the Lessee for any

other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Lessee, the
Beneficiary or any other corporation or person or any other circumstance
whatsoever (other than payment and performance in full of Lessee’s
