NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and

bearing Serial Number 258753 and Registration Number N805M, together with all

(collectively, the “Aircraft”). Upon
execution and delivery of this Agreement, Sellers shall provide notice to
SunTrust Equipment Finance & Leasing Corp. (“SunTrust”) terminating the
Aircraft Lease Agreement to which the Aircraft is subject and shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to cause SunTrust to execute and deliver such
documents and instruments and to take such further actions as are reasonably
necessary to evidence such termination.
2. INSPECTION
& ACCEPTANCE
2.1 Seller
shall make the Aircraft available to Buyer, beginning on or about March 18, 2009
at the Hawker Beechcraft Service Center at Tampa International Airport (TPA),
Tampa, Florida (the “Inspection Facility”) to enable Buyer to determine that the
Aircraft and all of its parts, components and systems comply with the
requirements of this Agreement, in that with all systems, cabin, galley,
avionics and components airworthy and functioning normally and within the
parameters and tolerances specified by the manufacturer(s), and with all
applicable FAA Airworthiness Directives and mandatory service bulletins complied
with and current through the date of Closing. The flat rate cost of
the pre-purchase inspection (the “Pre-Purchase Inspection”), the scope of which
shall be identified in Exhibit B, shall be at Buyer’s pre-paid expense, and
shall commence upon arrival of the Aircraft at the Inspection
Facility. The Pre-Purchase Inspection shall be conducted in
accordance with generally accepted industry standards. Buyer shall accept or
reject the Aircraft within three (3) business days following its receipt of the
Inspection Facility’s report of the discrepancies as a result of the
Pre-Purchase Inspection.
(A) If
Buyer finds the Aircraft unacceptable, Buyer will notify Seller in writing that
the Aircraft is unacceptable, withdraw the Deposit from Escrow, and this
Agreement shall have no further force or effect.
(B) If
Buyer finds the Aircraft acceptable, Buyer will notify Seller in writing of its
technical acceptance of the Aircraft in the form of Exhibit C, Aircraft
Technical Acceptance Notification. A copy of the executed
Exhibit C shall be forwarded to the Escrow
Agent to make the Deposit nonrefundable. Buyer’s acceptance of
the Aircraft shall include a list of airworthiness discrepancies which must be
rectified and performed in order for the Aircraft to comply with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement. Upon receipt of the executed Exhibit C Seller will at its expense cause the Inspection
Facility to repair all airworthiness discrepancies (the “Discrepancies”) which
render the Aircraft in non-compliance with the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that within three (3) business days
following receipt of such list of airworthiness discrepancies, Seller may
terminate this Agreement in which case, the Deposit shall be refunded to Buyer,
Seller shall reimburse the Buyer the flat rate cost of the Inspection in the sum
of US$20,450, and this Agreement shall have no further force or
effect.
(C) If
Seller is not in receipt of the Aircraft Technical Acceptance Notification or
written notice of rejection of the Aircraft within the allotted three (3) business days following completion of the
Pre-Purchase Inspection, this Agreement shall become null and void and the
Deposit shall be refunded to the Buyer.
2.2 Following
Aircraft return-to-service, the Seller shall conduct a one-hour pre-closing test
flight of the Aircraft (at Buyer’s expense for fuel), with not more than three
of Buyer’s representatives aboard, to confirm that the Aircraft is in Delivery
Condition (the “Test Flight”). Notwithstanding the
presence of Buyer’s representatives, Seller and Seller’s pilots shall be in
operational control of the Aircraft at all times prior to, during and
immediately following such Test Flight. If the Aircraft is not
in substantially the same condition as at the time
of the Pre-Purchase Inspection (other than correction or repair of any
identified airworthiness discrepancies), it will be returned to the
Inspection Facility for further repairs at Seller’s expense followed by another
Test Flight.
3. DELIVERY

shall cause, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense (for fuel and the hourly cost of
the maintenance program), the delivery of the Aircraft to Charlotte Xxxxxxx
International Airport (CLT) in South Carolina or another airport reasonably

shall be responsible for any sales, use or similar transfer taxes (including all
penalties, interest or other charges thereon) assessed on the sale or delivery
of the Aircraft by Sellers to Buyer or on Buyer’s ownership or use of the
Aircraft after the Closing. In the event applicable law requires a

assessed against or imposed upon Sellers, Sellers shall promptly notify
Buyer. Sellers shall permit Buyer, at its sole cost and expense, to
contest such tax and shall make reasonable efforts to cooperate with Buyer to
exercise such contest rights, provided Buyer fully indemnifies Sellers from any
and all loss or expense as a result of Buyer’s contest.
9. TERMINATION
9.1 This
Agreement may be terminated only as follows: (i) by written agreement of Buyer
and Sellers at any time before the Closing Date; (ii) by Buyer, pursuant to
Section 2.1(A), or if the conditions
specified in Section 3.1 and/or Section 4.3(A) have not been waived by Buyer or
satisfied by the final date specified in Section 3.1 for the Closing Date or by Seller pursuant to Section 2.1(B); (iii)
by Sellers, if the conditions specified in Section 4.3(B) have not been waived
or satisfied by the final date specified in Section 3.1 for the Closing Date;
(iv) by either party, if the other party refuses to close the transactions on
the Closing Date or otherwise materially breaches its obligations under this
Agreement or (v) by either party if a Casualty Event (as defined below)
occurs. As used herein, Casualty Event shall mean any of the
following events with respect to the Aircraft: (A) loss of the
Aircraft or the use thereof due to theft, disappearance, destruction, damage
beyond economic repair or rendition of such Aircraft permanently unfit for use
for any reason whatsoever, (B) any damage to the Aircraft, or (C) the
condemnation, confiscation, appropriation or seizure of, or requisition of title
to the Aircraft or the use of the Aircraft by or on the authority of any
governmental authority or purported governmental authority.
9.2 If
this Agreement is terminated by either or both parties pursuant to Section 2.1
or clauses (i), (ii) or (v) of Section 9.1, then the Deposit, plus any interest
accrued thereon, shall be returned to Buyer within one (1) business day, and
neither party shall have any further obligations under this Agreement to the
other. If Buyer is not then in default (other than a default that
arises as a result of or in connection with a preceding default by Sellers) and
this Agreement is terminated by Buyer pursuant to clause (iv) of Section 9.1,
then the Deposit, plus any interest accrued thereon, shall be returned to Buyer
within one (1) business day, without prejudice to Buyer’s right to pursue any
other available remedy. If Sellers are not then in default (other
than a default that arises as a result of or in connection with a preceding
default by Buyer) and this Agreement is terminated by Sellers pursuant to clause
(iii) or (iv) of Section 9.1, then the Deposit, plus any interest accrued
thereon, shall be retained by Sellers as liquidated damages but not as a
penalty, which shall be Sellers’ sole and exclusive remedy for Buyer’s breach of
this Agreement. Buyer and Sellers agree that the damages that would
be suffered if Buyer defaults in its obligation to close the transactions as
provided under this Agreement would be extremely difficult and impractical to
ascertain, and that the Deposit represents the parties’ reasonable estimate of
the amount of the damages that Sellers would suffer by reason of such a
default.
