2. Assignment.

2.1 The Assignor does hereby sell, assign, transfer and set over unto the Assignee, its successors and permitted assigns, all of the Assignor’s remaining rights and interests in

2.4 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing: (i) at Assignee’s option, the authorization to exercise the Warranties given to Assignor under Section 2.2 shall henceforth cease to be effective and the right to exercise such Warranties shall automatically revert to Assignee without further action by Assignee or Assignor (however, such reversion shall not be binding on the Engine Manufacturer until the Engine Manufacturer receives written notice thereof), and Assignee shall, to the exclusion of Assignor, be entitled to assert and enforce such rights, claims and interests, and Assignor shall cooperate with Assignee to enforce such rights, claims and interests; and (ii) whether or not Assignee exercises its option under clause (i) above, Assignee shall be entitled to receive all proceeds resulting from any such assertion or enforcement of rights, claims or interests (and any such proceeds received by Assignor shall be promptly paid over to Assignee) and, after deducting from the proceeds thereof all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees that may have been incurred by Assignee in connection therewith, Assignee may hold the remaining proceeds as security under the Lease until Assignor shall have cured, or Assignee in writing shall have waived, all Events of Default, or at Assignee’s option, apply all or any such remaining proceeds to the payment of any obligation of Assignor at the time due under the Lease and the balance, if any, shall be payable to Assignor when Assignor shall have cured, or Assignee shall have waived, all Events of Default.

3.2 Notwithstanding anything contained in this Assignment Agreement to the contrary (but without in any way releasing the Assignor from any of its duties or obligations under the General Terms Agreement and the Warranties), the Assignee confirms expressly for the benefit of the Engine Manufacturer that, in exercising any rights in and to the Warranties, or in making any claim with respect thereto, the applicable terms and conditions of the Warranties and this Assignment Agreement shall apply to and be binding upon the Assignee to the same extent as the Assignor.

3.3 Nothing contained herein shall subject the Engine Manufacturer to any obligation or liability to which it would not otherwise be subject under the General Terms Agreement or the Warranties or modify in any respect the contract rights of the Engine Manufacturer thereunder or subject the Engine Manufacturer to any multiple or duplicative obligation or liability under the General Terms Agreement or the Warranties or limit any rights of set-off the Engine Manufacturer may have against the Assignor under applicable law.

4. Further Assistance.

The Assignor agrees that, at any time and from time to time upon the written request of the Assignee, the Assignor will promptly and duly execute and deliver any and all such further instruments and documents and take such further action as the Assignee shall reasonably request in order to obtain the full benefits of this Assignment Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted.

5. Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

7. Export.

7.1 The export and re-export, transfer, re-transfer, diversion or import of Engines, Modules, commodities, technical data, software, goods and services (including products derived from or based on such technical data) received directly or indirectly from Engine Manufacturer (“Goods”) are subject to Export Laws. Each of Engine Manufacturer, Assignor and Assignee agrees that it will not, directly or indirectly, knowingly sell, export, re-export, transfer, divert, or otherwise dispose of any Goods to any Prohibited Party without obtaining prior authorization from the relevant government authorities as required pursuant to Export Laws.

The Engine Manufacturer shall resume performance at such time as the subject breach is resolved. If permitted by the relevant Export Laws, the Engine Manufacturer will, prior to any suspension of its performance under this Assignment Agreement or, if not possible (acting reasonably), immediately after any suspension of its performance under this Assignment Agreement, notify the Assignor and the Assignee in writing stating the grounds for its reason to believe that the Assignor or the Assignee, as the case may be, has breached the Export Laws.

8. Limitation of Liability of Engine Manufacturer.

The express provisions of the Warranties set forth the maximum liability of IAE with respect to any claims relating to the Warranties.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall limit Engine Manufacturer’s obligations and liabilities (1) to the extent caused by or arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Engine Manufacturer, (2) to the extent of any express indemnity obligation of Engine Manufacturer in this Assignment Agreement or the Warranties or (3) with regard to injury, damage, cost or expense, or other liability claimed by any third party, whether asserted against Assignor or its affiliates, Assignee or its affiliates or Engine Manufacturer or its shareholders.

8. Miscellaneous.
