Section 10.2 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or the effectiveness or validity of any provision in any other jurisdiction, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

Section 10.3 Amendment and Modification; Waiver. Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of this Agreement may be amended or waived only upon the prior written consent of AerCap and the Seller. No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

Section 10.4 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the Repurchase and the Notes Issuance and supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, between or on behalf of the Seller and/or its respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Issuer and the Guarantors and/or their Affiliates, on the other hand, with respect to the Repurchase and the Notes Issuance.

Section 10.5 Assignment. This Agreement shall not be directly or indirectly assigned, delegated, sublicensed or transferred by any Party, in whole or in part, to any other Person (including any bankruptcy trustee) by operation of Law or otherwise, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, without the prior written consent of the other Parties. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties, and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Section 10.6 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties and their successors and permitted assigns and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 10.7 Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) This Agreement, the Repurchase, the Notes Issuance and all transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and all claims and defenses of any nature (including contractual and non-contractual claims and defenses) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any transaction contemplated by this Agreement, and the formation, applicability, breach, termination or validity of this Agreement, shall be governed by and

construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any conflicts of law principles that would apply the Law of another jurisdiction, except that Section 7.1 relating to waivers and amendments to the Shareholders’ Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Netherlands without giving effect to any conflict of law principles that would apply the Law of another jurisdiction.

(b) Except as provided in Section 10.7(j), any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or in connection with, or relating to, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the formation, applicability, breach, termination or validity thereof, shall be finally settled exclusively by arbitration in accordance with the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (the “ICC”) in effect at the time of the arbitration, except as they may be modified herein or by mutual agreement of the parties. The arbitration shall be conducted by three arbitrators (the “Arbitral Tribunal”). The arbitration shall be conducted in the English language and the seat of the arbitration shall be New York, New York.

(c) The party or parties initiating arbitration (the “Claimant(s)”) shall nominate an arbitrator in its (their) request for arbitration (the “Arbitration Request”). The party or parties named as Respondent(s) in the Arbitration Request (the “Respondent(s)”) shall nominate an arbitrator within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Arbitration Request and shall notify the Claimant(s) of such nomination in writing. If within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Arbitration Request by the Respondent(s), the Respondent(s) has (have) not nominated an arbitrator, then the International Court of Arbitration of the ICC (the “ICC Court”) shall appoint an arbitrator on behalf of the Respondent(s). The first two arbitrators nominated by the parties or appointed by the ICC Court in accordance with the above shall nominate a third arbitrator within thirty (30) days of the confirmation by the ICC Court (or appointment in accordance with the above) of the arbitrator nominated/appointed on behalf of the Respondent(s). When the third arbitrator has accepted the nomination, the other two arbitrators shall promptly notify the parties of the nomination. If the first two arbitrators nominated/appointed fail to nominate a third arbitrator within the thirty (30) days referred to above, the ICC Court shall appoint the third arbitrator and shall promptly notify the parties of the appointment. The third arbitrator shall act as chair of the Arbitral Tribunal. Each arbitrator shall be qualified to practice law under the Laws of the State of New York. An arbitrator shall be deemed to have met these qualifications unless any party objects within fifteen (15) days.

(d) The parties agree that any Award by the Arbitral Tribunal on interim measures shall be fully enforceable as such and an application for interim measures to a court of competent jurisdiction by any party to the arbitration shall not be deemed incompatible with, or a waiver of, the agreement to arbitrate set out in this Section 11.

(e) In order to facilitate the comprehensive resolution of related disputes and to avoid inconsistent decisions in related disputes, upon request of any party to an

arbitration proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 11, any dispute, controversy or claim subsequently noticed for arbitration under the provisions of this Section may be consolidated with the earlier-commenced arbitration proceeding, as determined within the discretion of the Arbitral Tribunal appointed in the first-commenced arbitration proceeding. The Arbitral Tribunal must not consolidate such arbitrations unless the Arbitral Tribunal determines that (i) there are issues of fact or law common to the proceedings, so that a consolidated proceeding would be more efficient than separate proceedings, and (ii) no party hereto would be prejudiced as a result of such consolidation through undue delay, conflict of interest or otherwise. If the Arbitral Tribunal and any arbitration tribunal appointed in a subsequent arbitration proceeding disagree as to whether their respective arbitrations should be consolidated there shall be no consolidation.

(f) The ICC Court, any arbitrator, and their agents or Representatives, shall keep confidential and not disclose to any non-party the existence of the arbitration, non-public materials and information provided in the arbitration by another party, and orders or awards made in the arbitration (together, the “Arbitration Confidential Information”). If a party or an arbitrator wishes to involve in the arbitration a non-party — including a fact or expert witness, stenographer, translator or any other person — the party or arbitrator shall make reasonable efforts to secure the non-party’s advance agreement to preserve the confidentiality of the Arbitration Confidential Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a party may disclose Arbitration Confidential Information to the extent necessary to: (i) prosecute or defend the arbitration or proceedings related to it (including enforcement or annulment proceedings), or to pursue a legal right; (ii) respond to a compulsory order or request for information of a governmental or regulatory body; (iii) make disclosure required by law or by the rules of a securities exchange; (iv) seek legal, accounting or other professional services, or satisfy information requests of potential acquirers, investors or lenders, provided that in each case of any disclosure allowed under the foregoing circumstances (i) through (iv), where possible, the producing party takes reasonable measures to ensure that the recipient preserves the confidentiality of the information provided. The Arbitral Tribunal may permit further disclosure of Arbitration Confidential Information where there is a demonstrated need to disclose that outweighs any party’s legitimate interest in preserving confidentiality. This confidentiality provision survives termination of this Agreement and of any arbitration brought pursuant to this Agreement. This confidentiality provision may be enforced by an arbitral tribunal or any court of competent jurisdiction, and an application to a court to enforce this provision shall not waive or in any way derogate from the agreement to arbitrate set out in this Section 11.

(g) If there is any dispute as to whether a dispute, controversy or claim is subject to arbitration, the Arbitral Tribunal shall have jurisdiction to decide the same.

(h) The agreement to arbitrate under this Section 11 shall be specifically enforceable. Any Award rendered by the Arbitral Tribunal shall be in writing and shall be final and binding upon the parties, and may include an award of costs, including reasonable legal fees and disbursements, to the prevailing party. The parties undertake to carry out any Award without delay and waive their right to any form of recourse based on grounds other than those contained in the United Nations Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards of 1958 insofar as such waiver can validly be made. Judgment upon any Award may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof or having jurisdiction over the relevant party or its assets and, to the maximum extent permitted by Law, the parties agree that any court of competent jurisdiction in which enforcement of the Award is sought shall have power to enforce the relief awarded by the Arbitral Tribunal, regardless of whether such relief is characterized as legal, equitable or otherwise.

(i) Except as provided in Section 10.7(j), each Party irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in New York, New York for enforcing the Parties’ agreement to arbitrate, enforcing any arbitration Award or obtaining or enforcing interim measures (including injunctive relief). THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY IN ANY COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN ANY MATTERS ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTION AGREEMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

(j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10.7, any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or in connection with, or relating to, Section 7.1 or the formation, applicability, breach, termination or validity thereof, shall in the first instance be settled by xxx xxxxxx xx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxxxxxxx.

Section 10.8 Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement.

Section 10.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in counterparts, any one of which need not contain the signatures of more than one party, but all such counterparts taken together will constitute one and the same Agreement.

Section 10.10 Expenses. Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, all costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel, financial advisers and accountants, incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Repurchase and the Notes Issuance shall be paid by the Person incurring such costs and expenses, whether or not the Closing shall have occurred.

Section 10.11 Specific Performance. (a) The Parties hereby agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, (b) it is accordingly agreed that, without the necessity of posting bond or other undertaking, the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such Party is entitled at law or in equity and (c) in the event that any Action is brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, no Party shall allege, and each Party hereby waives the defense or counterclaim, that there is an adequate remedy at law.
