2. CREATION OF SECURITY INTERESTS.
2.1. GRANT OF SECURITY INTERESTS.
(a) Grantor hereby unconditionally grants, assigns, and pledges to
Agent, for the benefit of the Lender Group, a continuing security interest in
and Lien upon (hereinafter referred to as the "Security Interest") all of
Grantor's right, title, and interest in and to any and all currently existing
and hereafter acquired or arising Collateral, in order to secure the payment and
performance when due of all of the Secured Obligations. Without limiting the
5
generality of the foregoing, this Agreement secures the payment of all amounts
which constitute part of the Secured Obligations and would be owed by Grantor to
Agent, the other members of the Lender Group, or any of them, but for the fact
that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of an
Insolvency Proceeding involving Grantor.
(b) Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, the term "Collateral", as used in this Agreement, shall not
include:
(i) any rights or interest in any contract, lease, permit,
license, charter, or license agreement covering real or personal property of
Grantor if (A) under the terms of such contract, lease, permit, license,
charter, or license agreement, or applicable law with respect thereto, the grant
of a security interest or Lien therein or collateral assignment of rights,
warranties or interests therein, requires the consent of the other party to such
contract, lease, permit, license, charter or license agreement or is prohibited
as a matter of law or under the terms of such contract, lease, permit, license,
charter, or license agreement, and (B) such prohibition has not been waived or
the consent thereto of the other party to such contract, lease, permit, license,
charter, or license agreement has not been obtained; provided, that the
foregoing exclusion (1) shall not apply if any described prohibition is
unenforceable under Section 9-406, 9-407, or 9-408 of the Code or other
applicable law, (2) shall not apply when such prohibition is no longer in
effect, and (3) shall not limit, impair, or otherwise affect the Agent's
continuing security interests in and Liens upon any rights or interests of
Grantor in or to (a) monies due or to become due under any described contract,
lease, permit, license, charter, or license agreement (including any Accounts),
or (b) any proceeds from the sale, license, lease, or other dispositions of any
such contract, lease, permit, license, charter, or license agreement; or
(ii) any aircraft engines or spare parts (and any accessions,
fixtures, and attachments thereto) that are purchased or acquired with proceeds
of, and subject to a Lien in favor of the provider of, Permitted Purchase Money
Indebtedness to the extent that (A) the contract for such Permitted Purchase
Money Indebtedness expressly prohibits the valid grant of a security interest or
Lien (other than the security interest or Lien securing such Permitted Purchase
Money Indebtedness) on such aircraft engines or spare parts (and any accessions,
fixtures, and attachments thereto) and (B) such prohibition has not been waived
or the consent of the provider of such Permitted Purchase Money Indebtedness has
not been obtained; provided, that the foregoing exclusion (1) shall not apply
when such prohibition is no longer in effect, and (2) shall not limit, impair,
or otherwise affect the Agent's continuing security interests in and Liens upon
any rights or interests of Grantor in or to any proceeds, substitutions, or
replacements of such aircraft engines or spare parts (and any accessions,
fixtures, and attachments thereto), to the extent not covered, or to the extent
permitted if covered, by the Lien securing such Permitted Purchase Money
Indebtedness.
(c) The Security Interest in the Collateral granted herein shall
attach to all Collateral without further act on the part of Agent, any Lender,
or Grantor. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Credit
Agreement, or any other Loan Document, Grantor does not have any authority,
express or implied, to assign, transfer, lease, exchange, pool or otherwise
dispose of any item or portion of the Collateral or interest therein.
6
(d) Concurrently with the acquisition of any aircraft engine or spare
part (other than any aircraft engine or spare part excluded from the definition
of "Collateral" pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(ii)), Grantor shall execute and
deliver, in form for recordation, all applicable Supplemental Schedules with
respect to such Collateral.
2.2. SECURITY INSTRUMENTS; FURTHER ASSURANCES. Grantor shall perform,
or shall cause to be performed, at its sole expense, upon the request of Agent,
each and all of the following:
(a) record, register and file this Agreement and any Supplemental
Schedule, as well as such notices, financing statements, or other documents or
instruments as may, from time to time, be requested by Agent to fully carry out
the intent of this Agreement, with: (i) the FAA Registry in Oklahoma City,
Oklahoma, United States; and (ii) the location of Grantor as the term "location"
is defined in Section 9-307 of the Code; and (iii) such other Governmental
Authorities as may be determined by Agent to be necessary or advisable in order

created hereunder, as a legal, valid, and binding first priority security
interest and Lien upon the Collateral in favor of Agent, including if applicable
in connection with the Cape Town Convention;
(b) furnish to Agent evidence of every such recordation, registration

reasonably requested by Agent with respect to complying with or remaining
subject to the FARs, or the laws and regulations of any of the various states or
countries in which any Engines or the Spare Parts are or may fly over, operate
in, or become located in; and (ii) defending the title of Grantor to and the
Security Interest of Agent on the Collateral by means of negotiation and, if
necessary, appropriate legal proceedings, against each and every party claiming
an interest therein contrary or adverse to Grantor's title to and the Security
Interest of Agent on same.
2.3. OPINION OF COUNSEL. Promptly following the execution and delivery
of this Agreement (and, thereafter, promptly following the execution and
delivery of a Supplemental Schedule), Grantor shall furnish an opinion of
Daugherty, Fowler, Peregrin and Xxxxxx Professional Corporation or other
qualified counsel in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma reasonably acceptable to Agent, in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, that this Agreement (or,
promptly following the execution and delivery of a Supplemental Schedule, that
this Agreement as supplemented by such Supplemental Schedule) is in recordable
form and has been filed for recordation with the FAA in accordance with the
Federal Aviation Act and creates a duly perfected first priority security
interest in favor of the Agent in the portion of the Collateral for which a
security interest can be perfected by such filing with the FAA in favor of Agent
and no other Liens are of record with the FAA with respect to the Collateral.
7
2.4. AGENT APPOINTED POWER OF ATTORNEY. Grantor hereby irrevocably
appoints Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead
of Grantor and in the name of Grantor or otherwise, at such time as an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing under the Credit Agreement, to take any
action and to execute any instrument which Agent may reasonably deem necessary
or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including: (a) to
ask, demand, collect, xxx for, recover, compromise, receive and give acquittance
and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in connection with any
Collateral of Grantor; (b) to receive and open all mail addressed to Grantor and
to notify postal authorities to change the address for the delivery of mail to
Grantor to that of Agent; (c) to receive, indorse, and collect any drafts or
other instruments, documents, negotiable collateral or chattel paper; (d) to
file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which Agent may
deem necessary or desirable to enforce the rights of Agent with respect to any
of the Collateral; (e) to repair, alter, or supply goods, if any, necessary to
fulfill in whole or in part the purchase order of any Person obligated to
Grantor; (f) to use any labels, patents, trademarks, trade names, domain names,
industrial designs, copyrights, advertising matter or other industrial or
intellectual property rights, in advertising for sale and selling Collateral and
(g) to make recordations, registrations and other filings and take other actions
with or in respect of the FAA or any other Governmental Authority. To the extent
permitted by law, Grantor hereby ratifies all that such attorney-in-fact shall
lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is
coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until this Agreement is
terminated.
2.5. RELEASE OF FAA MORTGAGE RECORDATIONS. So long as no Overadvance
is outstanding or would result therefrom, upon written notice by Grantor to
Agent of a sale by Grantor of an Engine or a Spare Part that constitutes
Collateral that is expressly permitted under the Credit Agreement, at Grantor's
expense, Agent will execute and deliver a release of Agent's Lien and Security
Interest on such Engine or such Spare Part, as applicable, suitable for
recordation with the FAA (an "FAA Release"), in form and substance satisfactory
to Agent, provided that such sale is expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement
or otherwise expressly consented to in writing by Agent in accordance with the
Credit Agreement. Nothing contained in this Section 2.5 shall relieve Grantor in
any respect of Grantor's obligation under this Agreement or the Credit Agreement
to remit to Agent proceeds from the sale of Collateral as required by this
Agreement or the Credit Agreement.
2.6. INSTALLATION OF SPARE PARTS ON AND REMOVAL OF SPARE PARTS FROM AN
AIRCRAFT OR ENGINE. So long as no Overadvance is outstanding or would result
therefrom, Grantor may, at any time and at its own cost and expense, incorporate
or install in or attach to an aircraft, an aircraft engine or a flight
simulator, any Spare Part that constitutes Collateral to replace any Spare Part
removed from such aircraft, aircraft engine or flight simulator for any reason
whatsoever. So long as no Overadvance is outstanding or would result therefrom,
Grantor may also from time to time and in accordance with normal practices in
the commercial airline industry, add any Spare Part that constitutes Collateral
to an aircraft, an aircraft engine or a flight simulator for the purposes of
making an addition or modification thereto without removing a Spare Part from
such aircraft, aircraft engine or flight simulator or may remove a Spare Part
from an aircraft, an engine or a flight simulator without replacing such Spare
Part with another Spare Part. Immediately upon a Spare Part that constitutes
Collateral becoming incorporated or installed in or attached to such aircraft,
aircraft engine or flight simulator, such Spare Part (including all warranties,
insurances, leases, proceeds, manuals, technical records and
8
other intangible rights with respect thereto) so incorporated or installed in or
attached to such aircraft, aircraft engine or flight simulator shall, without
further act, cease to be part of the Collateral and shall not be subject to this
Agreement, shall be released from and no longer be subject to the Security
Interest hereof and the Security Interest hereof shall cease to be attached to
such Spare Part (including all warranties, insurances, leases, proceeds,
manuals, technical records and other intangible rights with respect thereto).
Any Spare Part removed from an aircraft, an aircraft engine or a flight
simulator shall without further act, immediately become a Spare Part and subject
to this Agreement and the Security Interest hereof shall, and shall be deemed
to, attach to such removed Spare Part unless such Spare Part is excluded from
the Collateral pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(ii); provided that such Spare Part
shall not be deemed an Eligible Spare Part unless and until such Spare Part
satisfies all criteria of the definition of "Eligible Spare Parts" set forth in
the Credit Agreement.
3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.
By executing and delivering this Agreement, and continually thereafter
(except to the extent any of the following representations or warranties by
their terms relate only to a particular prior date) until each and all of the
Secured Obligations have been fully paid and performed, Grantor hereby
represents and warrants to Agent as follows:

eligible for recording with the FAA pursuant to 14 C.F.R. xx.xx. 49.51 and 49.52
or any successor or similar regulation. Grantor owns and will own legally and
beneficially all right, title and interest in and to the Collateral, and holds
and will hold good and marketable title to, the Engines and Spare Parts free of
all Liens (other than (x) Agent's Lien, in the case of Collateral at any time
designated as Eligible Spare Parts or (y) Permitted Liens, in the case of other
Collateral, Engines, or Spare Parts).
3.2. PERFECTED FIRST PRIORITY SECURITY INTEREST. Upon the filing and
recordation of this Agreement (and, if applicable, any Supplemental Schedule)
with the FAA, Agent shall have a first priority perfected security interest in
that portion of the Collateral in which perfection is governed by the Federal
Aviation Act and the FARs (other than Permitted Liens in the case of Collateral
that is not designated as Eligible Spare Parts). Grantor further represents and
warrants that, other than the filing of a financing statement in the State of
organization of Grantor and the recordation of this Agreement (and, if
applicable, any Supplemental Schedule) with the FAA, the execution, delivery,
and performance by Grantor of this Agreement, and the creation and perfection of
the Security Interest in favor of Agent hereunder against Grantor and all other
Persons, do not and will not require any registration, recordation or other
filing with, or consent, or approval of, or notice to, or other action with or
by, any Governmental Authority.
3.3. COMPLIANCE. With respect to Spare Parts, Grantor makes the
representations and warranties which are set forth in Section 4.3 of the Credit

(a) each Engine is of good and merchantable quality, free from material defects
(except for repairable damage that will be repaired in the ordinary course of
Grantor's business), serviceable in accordance with Grantor's
9
Maintenance Program in good operating condition and ready for immediate use or
operation in accordance with Grantor's Maintenance Program and has all
serviceability tags applicable thereto and all related applicable back to birth
records and all other documents required by Grantor's Maintenance Program; (b)
Grantor possesses all necessary certificates, permits, rights, authorizations,
concessions, and consents which are material to the maintenance, installation,
operation, use or sale of each Engine, and (c) Grantor maintains all Engines,
and the books and records with respect thereto, in compliance with the
requirements of applicable law.
3.4. SPARE PARTS. Except as otherwise permitted by the Credit
Agreement, all Spare Parts that constitute Collateral are and will be maintained
by the Grantor only at the locations listed on Schedule 1.1(S).
3.5. SECTION 1110 OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE. With respect to the Engines
and Spare Parts that constitute Collateral first placed into service after
October 22, 1994, Agent is entitled to the benefits of Section 1110 of the
Bankruptcy Code in connection with the exercise of its remedies under this
Agreement in respect of all such Engines with Spare Parts constituting an
"aircraft engine," "propeller," "appliance" or "spare part" as such terms are
defined in Section 40102 of the Federal Aviation Act. Except as specifically
designated in Schedule 1.1(E) or Schedule 1.1(S) hereto, all Engines and Spare
Parts that constitute Collateral were first placed in service after October 22,
1994.

with
10
respect to Eligible Spare Parts, ordinary course damage and economic
obsolescence excepted); and
(iii) without limiting the foregoing, cause to be performed, in
respect of all Engines and Spare Parts, all applicable mandatory airworthiness

equipment or part of any Engine or any Spare Part that constitutes Collateral
shall reach such a condition as to require overhaul, repair or replacement, for
any cause whatever, in order to comply with the standards or maintenance and
other provisions set forth in this Agreement, Grantor shall:
(i) install on such Engine or Spare Part, as applicable, such
items of the same type in temporary replacement of those then installed on the
Engine or such Spare Part, pending overhaul or repair of the unsatisfactory
item; provided, however, that (A) such replacement items must be in such a
condition as to be permissible for use upon the Engine or such Spare Part in
accordance with the standards for maintenance and other provisions set forth in
this Agreement, and (B) Grantor must, at all times, retain unencumbered title to
any and all items temporarily removed except for the Security Interest of Agent
and Permitted Liens; or

respect to each such Engine, reasonably acceptable to Agent, to the effect of
such Recognition of Rights Agreement.
5. EVENTS OF DEFAULT.
The occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Credit
Agreement) shall each constitute an "Event of Default" under this Agreement.
6. AGENT'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence, and during the
continuation, of an Event of Default:
6.1. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.
(a) Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to
other rights and remedies provided for herein, in the other Loan Documents, or
otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on
default under the Code or any other applicable law. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, Grantor expressly agrees that, in any such event,
Agent without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of
any kind (except a notice specified below of time and place of public or private
sale) to or upon Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands,
advertisements and notices are hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent
permitted by the Code or any other applicable law), may enter onto any premises
of Grantor and take immediate possession of all or any portion of the Collateral
and (i) require Grantor to, and Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its own
expense and upon request of Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the
Collateral as directed by Agent and make it available to Agent at one or more
locations where Grantor regularly maintains such Collateral, and (ii) without
notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one
or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of Agent's offices or
elsewhere, for cash, on credit, and upon such other terms as Agent may deem
commercially reasonable. Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall
be required by law, at least 10 days notice to Grantor of the time and place of
any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall
constitute reasonable notification and specifically such notice shall constitute
a reasonable "authenticated notification of disposition" within the meaning of
Section 9-611 of the Code. Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of
Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Agent may adjourn any
public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place
fixed therefor, and such sale may,
14
without further notice (except as may be required by law), be made at the time
and place to which it was so adjourned.
(b) Agent may, in its sole discretion, from time to time, at the
expense of Grantor make all such expenditures for the payment of taxes,
insurance, storage and other expenses related to the Collateral and for
remarketing, maintenance, modifications, refurbishments, repairs, replacements,
alterations, additions and improvements to and of the Collateral, as it may deem
proper. In each such case, Agent shall have the right to maintain, use, operate,
store, lease, control or manage the Collateral and to exercise all rights and
powers of Grantor relating to the Collateral in connection therewith, as Agent
shall deem appropriate, including the right to enter into any and all such
agreements with respect to the maintenance, modification, refurbishment,
insurance, use, operation, storage, leasing, control, management or disposition
of the Collateral or any part thereof as Agent may determine; and Agent shall be
entitled to collect and receive directly all tolls, rents, revenues, issues,
income, products and profits of the Collateral and every part thereof. Grantor
shall pay on demand, and any such tolls, rents, revenues, issues, income,
products and profits may be applied to pay, all expenses incurred by Agent in
connection with the foregoing and any and all other expenses of possession, use,
operation, storage, leasing, control, management or disposition of the
Collateral, and of all maintenance, modification, refurbishment, repairs,
replacements, alterations, additions and improvements, and all payments which
Agent may be required or may elect, to make, if any, for Taxes, insurance,
storage or other charges assessed against or otherwise imposed upon the exercise
of any rights under any of the Loan Documents or the Collateral or any part
thereof (including the employment of agents for the remarketing of the Aircraft
for sale or lease, and appraisers, technicians, engineers and accountants to
examine, inspect and make reports upon the properties and books and records of
Grantor), and all other payments which Agent or any Lender may be required or
authorized to make under any provision of this Agreement, as well as just and
reasonable compensation for the services of Agent, and of all Persons engaged or
employed by Agent.
(c) Agent is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without
liability for royalties or any other charge, Grantor's labels, patents,
copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks,
service marks and advertising matter, domain names, industrial designs, other
industrial or intellectual property or any property of a similar nature, whether
owned by Grantor or with respect to which Grantor has rights under license,
sublicense, or other agreements, as it pertains to the Collateral, in preparing
for sale, advertising for sale and selling any Collateral, and Grantor's rights
under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to the benefit of
Agent.
(d) Any cash held by Agent as Collateral and all cash proceeds
received by Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other
realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied against the
Secured Obligations in the order set forth in the Credit Agreement. In the event
the proceeds of Collateral are insufficient to satisfy all of the Secured
Obligations in full, Grantor shall remain liable for any such deficiency.
(e) Grantor hereby acknowledges that the Secured Obligations arose out
of a commercial transaction and agrees that if an Event of Default shall occur
Agent shall have the right to an immediate writ of possession without notice of
a hearing. Agent shall have
15
the right to the appointment of a receiver for the properties and assets of
Grantor, and Grantor hereby consents to such rights and such appointment and
hereby waives any objection Grantor may have thereto or the right to have a bond
or other security posted by Agent.
6.2. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. Each right, power, and remedy of Agent as
provided for in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall be
cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power,
or remedy provided for in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents or now
or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the
exercise or beginning of the exercise by Agent, of any one or more of such
rights, powers, or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later
exercise by Agent of any or all such other rights, powers, or remedies.
6.3. MARSHALING. Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or
future collateral security (including but not limited to the Collateral) for, or
other assurances of payment of, the Secured Obligations or any of them or to
resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any
particular order, and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and in respect of
such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and
in addition to all other rights and remedies, however existing or arising. To
the extent that it lawfully may, Grantor hereby agrees that it will not invoke
any law relating to the marshaling of collateral which might cause delay in or
impede the enforcement of Agent's rights and remedies under this Agreement or
under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Secured Obligations
or under which any of the Secured Obligations is outstanding or by which any of
the Secured Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and,
to the extent that it lawfully may, Grantor hereby irrevocably waives the
benefits of all such laws.
7. WAIVERS; LIABILITY.
7.1. DEMAND; PROTEST; ETC. To the extent permitted by law, Grantor
waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice
of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity,
release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents,
instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees at any time held by Agent on which
Grantor may in any way be liable.
7.2. AGENT'S LIABILITY FOR COLLATERAL. So long as Agent complies with
its obligations, if any, under the Code, Agent shall not in any way or manner be
liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss
or damage thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause;
(c) any diminution in the value thereof; or (d) any act or default of any
carrier, warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other Person, except in the
case of each of clauses (a), (b), (c) and (d) above, for any liability resulting
from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent as finally determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction. All risk of loss, damage, or destruction
of the Collateral shall be borne by Grantor. The powers conferred on Agent
hereunder are solely to protect its interests in the Collateral and shall not
impose on it any duty to exercise such powers. Except as provided in the Code,
Agent shall not have any duty with respect to the Collateral or any
responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior
parties or any other Persons with respect to any Collateral.

telefacsimile shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed
counterpart of this Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of

counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of

part of such amount by reason of (i) any judgment, decree or order of any court
or administrative body having jurisdiction over Agent or such Lender or any of
its property, or (ii) any good faith settlement or compromise of any such claim
effected by Agent or such Lender with any such claimant, then and in such event
Grantor agrees that (A) any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or
compromise shall be binding upon it notwithstanding the cancellation of any
Indebtedness hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or the termination of
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and (B) it shall be and remain
liable to Agent or such Lender hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered
to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by Agent
or such Lender.
