Upon the occurrence Of (i) a Dissolution Event or (ii) the determination by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Company has dissolved prior to the occurrence of a Dissolution Event (unless the Company is reconstituted pursuant to Section 12. 1(b) hereof), the Company shall continue solely for the purposes of winding up its affairs in an orderly manner, liquidating its assets, and satisfying the claims of its creditors and Members, and no Member shall take any action that is inconsistent with, or not necessary to or appropriate for, the winding up of the Company's business and affairs, provided that, to the extent not inconsistent with the foregoing, all covenants contained in this Agreement and obligations provided for in this Agreement shall continue to be fully binding upon the Members until such time as the Property has been distributed pursuant to this Section 12.2 and the Certificate has been canceled pursuant to the Act. The Liquidator shall be responsible for overseeing the winding up and dissolution of the Company, which winding up and dissolution shall be completed within sixty (60) days of the occurrence of the Dissolution Event and within ninety (90). days after the-last day on which the Company may be reconstituted pursuant to Section 12. l(b) hereof The Liquidator shall take full account of the Company's liabilities and Property and shall cause the Property or the proceeds from the sale thereof (as determined pursuant to Section 12.10 hereof), to the extent sufficient therefor, to be applied and distributed, to the maximum extent permitted by law, in the following order: |
|||
(a) First, to creditors (other than the Manager but including other Members who are creditors, to the extent otherwise permitted by law) in satisfaction of all of the Company's Debts and other liabilities (whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment thereof), other than liabilities for distribution to Members under Section 18-601 or 18-604 of the Act; |
|||
(b) Second, to the Manager, in its capacity as a creditor of the Company,' in satisfaction of all of the Company's debts and liabilities (whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment thereof); |
|||
(c) Third, except as provided in this Agreement, to Members and former Members of the Company in satisfaction of liabilities for distribution under Sections 18-601 or 18-604 of the Act; and |
|||
(d) The balance, if any, to the Members in accordance with the positive balance in their Capital Accounts, after giving effect to all contributions, distributions and allocations for all periods. |
|||
Except as provided in Section 12.9, no Member or Manager shall receive additional compensation for any services performed pursuant to this Section 12. The Manager understands and agrees that by accepting the provisions of this Section 12.2 setting forth the priority of the distribution of the assets of the Company to be made upon its liquidation, the Manager expressly waives any right which it, as a creditor of the Company, might otherwise have under the Act to receive distributions of assets pari passu with the other creditors of the Company in connection with a distribution of assets of the Company in satisfaction of any liability of the Company, and hereby subordinates to said creditors any such right. |

If any Member has a deficit balance in its Capital Account (after giving effect to all contributions, distributions and allocations for all Allocation Years, including the Allocation Year during which such liquidation occurs), such Member shall have no obligation to make any contribution to the capital of the Company with respect to such deficit, and such deficit shall not be considered a debt owed to the Company or to any other Person for any purpose whatsoever. In the discretion of the Liquidator, a pro rata portion of the distributions that would otherwise be made to the Members pursuant to this Section 12 may be: |
|||
(a) Distributed to a trust established for the benefit of the Members for the purposes of liquidating Company assets, collecting amounts owed to the Company, and paying any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company. The assets of any such trust shall be distributed to the Members from time to time, in the reasonable discretion of the Liquidator, in the same proportions as the amount distributed to such trust by the Company would otherwise have been distributed to the Members pursuant to Section 12.2 hereof; or |
|||
(b) Withheld to provide a reasonable reserve for Company liabilities (contingent or otherwise) and to reflect the unrealized portion of any installment obligations owed to the Company, provided that such withheld amounts shall be distributed to the Members as soon as practicable. |
|||
12.4 Deemed Distribution and Recontribution. |
|||

Instead, solely for federal income tax purposes, the Company shall be deemed to have taken subject to all Debts of the Company and other liabilities all in accordance with their respective Capital Accounts Immediately thereafter, the Members shall be deemed to have recontributed the Property in-kind to the Company, which shall be deemed to have taken subject to all such liabilities. |
|||
12.5 Rights of Members. |
|||
Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Member shall look solely to the Property of the Company for the return of its Capital Contribution and has no right or power to demand or receive Property other than cash from the Company.

Determination of Fair Market Value |
Fair market value ("FMV") of any asset, as of any day, means the price at which a willing seller would sell, and a willing buyer would buy, such asset, free and clear of all liens, security interests or other encumbrances, in an arm's length transaction for cash, without time constraints and without being under any compulsion to buy or sell. |
In the event that it is necessary to determine the FMV of any asset, the Manager shall appoint an appraiser (the "First Appraiser") and, within fifteen (15) Business Days of receiving notice designating the First Appraiser, BT Investor shall appoint a second appraiser (the "Second Appraiser"). If the Second Appraiser is not timely designated, the determination of the FMV shall be made by the First Appraiser. The First Appraiser, or each of the First Appraiser and the Second Appraiser, shall submit its determination of the FMV to the Company and the Members within twenty (20) days of the date of its selection (or the selection of the Second Appraiser, as applicable). If there are two appraisers and their respective determinations of FMV vary by less than 10% of the higher determination, FMV shall be the average of the two determinations. If such determinations vary by 10% or more of the higher determination, the two appraisers shall promptly designate a third appraiser (the "Third Appraiser"). Neither the Company nor any Member shall provide, and the First Appraiser and the Second Appraiser shall be instructed not to provide, any information to the Third Appraiser as to the determinations of the First Appraiser and the Second Appraiser or otherwise influence the Third Appraiser in any way. The Third Appraiser shall submit its determination of FMV to the Company and the Members within twenty (20) days of the date of its selection. FMV shall be equal to the average of the two closest of the three determinations; provided that, if the difference between the highest and middle determination is no more than 105% and no less that 95% of the difference between the middle and lowest determinations, then FMV shall equal the middle determination. |
Each appraiser selected pursuant to this Exhibit D shall be disinterested and must be a nationally recognized appraiser qualified to appraise the property being appraised. |

GUARANTY OF OBLIGATIONS dated as of November 13, 1995 (this "Guaranty") by AMP Funding, L.L.C, a Delaware limited liability company ("Guarantor''), in favor of Potomac Capital Joint Leasing Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("PCJL''). |
||
PRELIMINARY STATEMENT |
||
Guarantor is a member of RAMP Investments, L.L.C., a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the "Company"). Heretofore, Guarantor, as assignee of Potomac Capital Investment Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("PCI"), entered into a certain Assignment and Assumption Agreement dated the date hereof assuming all obligations of PCI under a certain promissory note dated October 18, 1995, in the amount of $233,000,000.00 payable to PCJL (the "Note''). Concurrently herewith, Guarantor is entering into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement dated as of the date hereof with the Company (the "Assumption Agreement'') whereby the Company shall assume all obligations of Guarantor under the Note. |
||
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, Guarantor hereby agrees as follows: |
||
Section 1. Guaranty. The Guarantor hereby unconditionally guarantees the punctual payment when due; whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all obligations of the Company now or hereafter existing under the Assumption Agreement and the Note, whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses or otherwise (such obligations being the "Obligations''), and agrees to pay any and all expenses (including counsel fees and expenses) incurred by PCJL in enforcing any rights under this Guaranty. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guarantor's liability shall extend to all amounts which constitute part of the Obligations and would be owed by the Company under the Assumption Agreement and the Note but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving the Company. |
||
Section 2. Guaranty Absolute. The Guarantor guarantees that the Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Assumption Agreement and the Note, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of PCJL with respect thereto. The obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty are independent of the Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against the Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty, irrespective of whether any action is brought against the Company or whether the Company is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of: |
||
(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Assumption Agreement, the Note or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; |
||
(ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from the Assumption Agreement or the Note; |
||
(iii) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guaranty, for all or any of the Obligations; |
||
(iv) any manner of application of collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any collateral for all or any of the Obligations or any other assets of the Company; |
||
(v) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of the Company; or |
||
(vi) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Company or a guarantor. |
||
This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by PCIL upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. |
||
Section 3. Guarantor's Waiver; Remedies; No Subrogation. Guarantor hereby waives to the extent permitted by law: (a) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, the Assumption Agreement or the Note; (b) promptness, diligence, presentment and demand for payment; (c) protest and notice of dishonor or of default; (d) any right, defense or other benefit it may have with respect to this Guaranty (including, without limitation, any right to terminate, or to assert any defense to its obligations under this Guaranty) arising under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States as at any time amended, or under any successor thereto; and (e) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to it (other than a defense of failure to mitigate damages) or a discharge of it. No failure on the part of PCJL to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any rights hereunder or under the Assumption Agreement or the Note shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any such delay or any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. |
||
Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of Guarantor by PCJL, Guarantor shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of PCJL against the Company or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by PCJL for the payment of the Obligations, nor shall Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any reimbursement from the Company in respect of payments made by Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to PCJL by the Company on account of the Obligations are paid and performed in full. |
||
Section 4. Continuing Guaranty. This Guaranty is a present and continuing guaranty of payment and not of collection and is not conditional or contingent upon any attempt to collect from the Company or any other person.

(d) There is no action, suit or proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of Guarantor, threatened against Guarantor before or by any federal, state, municipal, foreign or other governmental authority, agency, instrumentality or court that, if determined adversely to Guarantor, would materially adversely affect the ability of Guarantor to perform its obligations under this Guaranty. |

(d) Liens. Lessee shall not, without. the prior written consent of Lessor, permit, or suffer to exist any Liens other than Permitted Liens, nor shall Lessee assign any right or interest herein or in any Aircraft, Airframe or Engine except as expressly provided in this Agreement. Lessee will indemnify Lessor and Owner Participant on demand for all costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) payable by Lessor or Owner Participant to have any Aircraft or any Part thereof released from any such Lien other than a Permitted Lien. Lessee shall promptly and at its own expense take such action as may be necessary to discharge or remove any such Lien other than a Lessor's Lien. |
|||||
(e) Identification. On or prior to the Delivery Date with respect to an Aircraft, or as soon thereafter as practicable, Lessee will cause to be affixed to, and maintained in, the cockpit of the applicable Airframe and on each applicable Engine in a clearly visible location a plate of a reasonable size and shape bearing the following legend: |
|||||

|||||
Lessee shall not remove or permit the removal of such plate. If Lessee becomes aware that any such plate is damaged or illegible, Lessee shall promptly replace it with an exact duplicate in the same location as initially installed by Lessee in accordance with the requirements of this Section. Lessee shall not alter or remove or permit the alteration or removal of the registration certificate or of the nationality and registration marks required to be maintained on the Aircraft, and will restore such marks if. Lessee becomes aware that they have been damaged. During the Lease Term for any Aircraft, Lessee and any Permitted Sublessee may letter, paint or xxxx such Aircraft with the name and logo of Lessee or any Permitted Sublessee and may cause such Aircraft to bear insignia plates or other markings identifying the supplier or manufacturer of the Airframe or the Engines with respect thereto or any Parts of either thereof. |
|||||
SECTION 7. Subleasing the Aircraft. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, so long as no Event of Default or Incipient Event of Default with respect to an Aircraft shall have occurred and be continuing (provided that the existence of an Incipient Event of Default shall not affect any Permitted-Sublease in existence prior to the occurrence of such Incipient Event of Default), Lessee and any Permitted Sublessee shall have the' right, subject to the terms of this Agreement and the applicable ILR, without the prior .written consent of Lessor, to enter into a sublease of such Aircraft for use in the sublessee's ordinary course of business; provided further, however, that (x) no such sublease pursuant to (v) above shall have a term that exceeds the remaining Lease Term for such Aircraft and (y) such sublease shall contain provisions relating to insurance that are at least as favorable (from a lessor's perspective) as the provisions set forth in Section 9 of this Agreement. Immediately prior to entering into any such sublease (other than a sublease in existence on the date hereof), Lessee shall deliver to Lessor any required certificates or other documentation with respect to insurance of such Aircraft, including, without limitation, a certificate specifically naming the Owner Participant and AM-BT as additional insureds with respect to such insurance. The existence of any sublease shall in no way limit Lessee's obligations under this Lease with respect to such Aircraft. Lessee and Lessor hereby acknowledge that the Aircraft are and will continue to be subject to subleases pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. |

SECTION 8. Maintenance, Improvements and Repair of Aircraft. |
|||||
(a) Maintenance. Lessee shall, at its own expense (or shall cause a Permitted Sublessee to), (i) maintain, inspect, service, repair and overhaul (or cause to be maintained, inspected, serviced, repaired and overhauled) each Aircraft, (A) while such Aircraft is registered in the United States, in compliance with the applicable regulations of the FAA and with a relevant Permitted Sublessee's FAA-approved maintenance program and, while such Aircraft is registered in another country referenced in the applicable ILR, in compliance with the applicable requirements of the aeronautical authority of such country of registry, (B) so as to keep such Aircraft in good operating condition, (C) as may be necessary to enable the airworthiness certification of such Aircraft to be maintained in good standing at all times under the Act or, while such Aircraft is registered under another country referenced in the applicable ILR, under the applicable requirements of the aeronautical authority of such country of registry except, in each case, when the Aircraft is being maintained, serviced, tested, inspected, repaired or modified as permitted or required by this Agreement or the applicable ILR or when all aircraft of the same make and model as such Aircraft have been grounded by the FAA, and (D) so as to keep such Aircraft maintained in a manner comparable to the manner in which Lessee maintains (or causes to be maintained) similar aircraft and engines owned and operated by Lessee or leased by Lessee as lessor (and any Permitted Sublease shall contain a provision to the effect that the Permitted Sublessee will be required to maintain the Aircraft without discrimination); and (ii) maintain or cause to be maintained all records, logs and other materials required in respect of such Aircraft by the applicable regulations of the FAA and by the Permitted Sublessee's FAA-approved maintenance program or such other FAA-approved maintenance program satisfying the requirements in clause (a)(1)(A) of this Section 8, or, if applicable, by applicable regulatory agencies and aeronautical authorities of jurisdictions in which the Aircraft is then' registered in accordance with the applicable ILR. Alternatively, Lessee shall provide maintenance and storage for each Aircraft subject to this Lease for any period such Aircraft is not on operational status in accordance with the manufacturer's approved maintenance manual procedures for such Aircraft and prudent industry practice. Neither Lessor nor Owner Participant shall be obliged in any way to maintain, alter, repair, rebuild or replace any Aircraft or any Part thereof, and Lessee expressly waives to the fullest extent permitted by law the right to require performance of any such action by Lessor or Owner Participant, or at the expense of either thereof, pursuant to any law at any time in effect or the right to cause Lessor or Owner Participant to make any repairs, restorations, replacements, renewals, additions or improvements with respect to such Aircraft. Subject to the provisions contained in Section 14 hereof relating to the return of an Aircraft, Lessee may in good faith and by appropriate legal proceedings contest the validity or application of any law, rule, regulation, order or airworthiness directive with respect to an Aircraft or the maintenance thereof so long as (i) Lessee is contesting in good faith by appropriate proceedings the validity or application of such law, rule, regulation, order or directive, (ii) such proceedings or other actions do not result in any material risk of the sale or forfeiture of the Aircraft or any interest therein (except to the extent Lessee shall have provided security reasonably acceptable to Lessor to protect against such risk), and (iii) such contest would not subject any Indemnified Person to any criminal liability. |
|||||
(b) Replacements. In the ordinary course of maintenance, service, repair or testing, Lessee, or any Permitted Sublessee, at its own expense, shall replace any Parts that are worn out, lost, stolen, confiscated, damaged, destroyed or otherwise unfit for use from any Aircraft to the extent such Parts are necessary or useful, as promptly as practicable. In addition, Lessee or any Permitted Sublessee may remove in the ordinary course of maintenance, service, repair or testing any Parts, provided that Lessee or a Permitted Sublessee shall replace such Parts in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8 as soon as reasonably practicable and in accordance with Lessee's normal business practices. All replacement parts shall be free and clear of all Liens (except (i) in the case of replacement parts temporarily installed, (ii) pooling arrangements permitted by Section 7 of this Agreement, and (iii) Permitted Liens, in each case, subject to the provisions of Section 14 of this Agreement) and shall be in at least as good operating condition as, and shall have a value, utility and remaining useful. Life at least equal to, the Parts replaced (assuming such replaced-Parts were fn at least the condition and repair required to be maintained hereunder). Each of Lessee or any Permitted. Sublessee, at its own expense, may remove (without replacing) any Parts that Lessee or such Permitted Sublessee determines are no longer appropriate for use in any Aircraft and may make such alterations to such Aircraft as Lessee or such Permitted Sublessee deems desirable in the proper conduct of its business so long as such removal or alteration does not decrease the value, utility or remaining useful life of such Aircraft below the value, utility or remaining useful life thereof immediately prior to such removal or alteration. Each Part at any time removed from any Aircraft shall remain the property of (and .title thereto shall remain in) Lessor, no matter where located, until such time as such part shall be replaced by a replacement part that has been incorporated or installed in or attached to such Aircraft and that meets the requirements for replacement parts specified above. Immediately upon any replacement part becoming incorporated or installed in or attached to any Aircraft as above provided, without further act or instrument, subject to Permitted Liens (other than Lessor's Liens), (i) title to the removed Part shall thereupon vest in Lessee, free and clear of all rights of Lessor and shall no longer be deemed a part hereunder, (ii) title to such replacement part shall thereupon vest in Lessor, and (iii) such replacement part shall become subject to the applicable Lease and be deemed a Part of such Aircraft for all purposes hereof to the same extent as the Part originally incorporated or installed in or attached to such Aircraft. |
|||||
(c) Required Alterations. Lessee, at its own cost and expense, shall make (or cause to be made) all modifications, additions, alterations and improvements to any Aircraft as may be required from time to time to meet in all material respects the requirements of applicable governmental rules and regulations (regardless of the Person upon whom such requirements, by their terms, are nominally imposed) and any recommendations of the manufacturer, unless, in the case of manufacturers recommendations, such failure would not affect the safety of such Aircraft or materially impair its value, utility or remaining useful life (assuming such Aircraft was in at least the condition required to be maintained hereunder). Any such required or recommended replacements, improvements or additions shall be made in the manner that would least impair the value, utility and remaining useful life of such Aircraft as originally delivered to lessee, and would not cause such Aircraft to constitute "limited use property" within the meaning of Rev. Proc. 76-30, 1976-2 C.B. 647. |
|||||
(d) Title to Alterations. All improvements and additions to any Aircraft shall become and remain the property of Lessor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee or any Permitted Sublessee may remove or suffer to be removed any Part from any Aircraft that (i) is in addition to, and not in replacement of or substitution for, any Part originally incorporated on or installed in or attached to such Aircraft or any part in replacement of or in substitution for any such Part, (ii) is not required to be incorporated or installed in or attached or added to the Aircraft pursuant to the terms of this Section 8 and (iii) can be removed from such Aircraft without diminishing the value, utility or remaining useful life of such Aircraft (assuming such Aircraft was in at least the condition and repair (but no better than the condition or repair) required to be maintained hereunder) (any such Part, a "Severable Part") and upon such removal title thereto shall vest in Lessee. Any Severable Part which is not removed from an Aircraft at the time of its surrender to Lessor shall remain the property of Lessor. |
|||||
(e) Permitted Alterations. Unless an Event of Default with respect to an Aircraft shall have occurred and be continuing, Lessee, at its own cost and expense, may from time to time make, subject to obtaining all necessary governmental approvals and consents of third parties, such improvements, modifications and alterations to any such Aircraft that are not required pursuant to Section 8(c) hereof as Lessee may deem desirable in the proper conduct of its business, so long as (i) such, improvement, modification or alteration shall not decrease the value, utility or remaining useful life of such Aircraft (assuming such Aircraft was in at least the condition and repair required to be maintained hereunder); (ii) such improvement, modification or alteration shall not cause such Aircraft to constitute "limited use property" within the meaning of Rev. Proc. 76-30, 1976-2 C.B. 647, and (iii) no improvements, modifications or alterations, taken together or separately, shall violate the provisions of Rev. Proc. 75-21, 1975-1 C.B. 715 or 79-48, 1979-1 C.B. 529. |
|||||
(f) Reports. Lessee shall prepare and file all reports required to be filed by any governmental or regulatory authority with respect to the use, maintenance or condition of each Aircraft, or if it is not legally able to do so, shall promptly furnish or cause to be furnished to Lessor such information as may be required to enable Lessor to file any reports required to be filed by Lessor by virtue of its ownership of such Aircraft. |
|||||
SECTION 9. Insurance. |
|||||
(a) Obligation to Insure. Lessee shall, at no cost and expense to Lessor, procure or cause to be procured and maintain or cause to be maintained with insurers of recognized responsibility in the worldwide commercial aviation industry (i) all risk ground and flight aircraft hull insurance insuring the respective interests of Lessor (in its individual capacity and as Trustee under the applicable Trust Agreement), Owner Participant and Lessee and covering physical loss or damage to each Aircraft in an amount equal to or greater than the Stipulated Loss Value for such Aircraft, (ii) comprehensive airline liability insurance covering, but not limited to, comprehensive general liability, third party legal liability, passenger legal liability, personal injury liability, passengers' checked and unchecked baggage and personal effects liability with a combined single limit of not less than the lesser of the amount required by the applicable sublease for such Aircraft on the date of the ILR subjecting such Aircraft to this Lease and $500,000,000, and (iii) such other insurance against risks customarily insured against by owners or lessees of aircraft similar to each Aircraft and in amounts consistent with prudent industry practice. All such insurance shall be of the type usually carried in accordance with prudent industry practice for Persons of similar size of Lessee owning, operating or using aircraft similar to such Aircraft which covers the kinds of risks customarily insured, and shall be maintained in effect with reputable companies with substantial financial capacity, as are reasonably satisfactory to Lessor. Policies covering hull insurance shall be subject to a reasonable deductible or self-insured retained amount consistent with prudent industry practices and in an amount not greater than the deductible or self-insured amount, as the case may be, for similar aircraft owned or leased by Lessee. Each of Lessor (in its individual capacity and as Trustee under the applicable Trust Agreement), Owner Participant and AM-BT shall be a named insured as their respective interests may appear with respect to aircraft public liability or other third-party liability insurance, and a named loss payee as its interests may appear in respect of hull or casualty insurance in all insurance policies required under this Section 9. Each such policy shall be primary without right of contribution from any other insurance carried by Lessor, Owner Participant or AM-BT and shall waive any right of setoff, counterclaim or other deduction in respect of any liability of Lessor, Owner Participant or AM-BT to the extent any moneys are due to Lessor, Owner Participant or AM-BT (other than with respect to unpaid premiums). In addition, each such policy shall provide for at least 30 days' written notice (or, if such notice period is not permitted under the applicable policy, the longest prior notice that would be so permitted) to Lessor, Owner Participant and AM-BT of any cancellation or material alteration. of such policy. No such policies shall provide that there shall be any recourse against Lessor, Owner Participant or AM-BT for payment of premiums or other amounts due with respect to such policies, nor shall my such policies provide that the rights of Lessor, Owner Participant or AM-BT under such policies can be affected by any action, inaction or breach of Lessee or any sublessee. At Lessor's, Owner Participant's or AM-BT's request, Lessee shall furnish Lessor, Owner Participant or AM-BT, as the case may be, with certificates or other evidence satisfactory to Lessor, Owner Participant or AM-BT of compliance by Lessee with the provisions hereof, but neither Lessor nor Owner Participant nor AM-BT shall be under any duty to examine such certificates or to advise Lessee in the event its insurance is not in compliance herewith. Lessee covenants that it will not use or permit the use of any Aircraft at any time when the insurance required by this Section 9 is not in force with respect to such Aircraft. Lessee's obligation to maintain insurance in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9 with respect to any Aircraft shall commence on the Delivery Date, and shall continue until such Aircraft is sold pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or such Aircraft is no longer subject to the applicable Lease, whichever is sooner. Lessee may self-insure, or satisfy through contingent insurance, all or any portion of the foregoing coverage in a manner consistent with Lessee's self-insurance practices or contingent insurance practices, as the case may be, in effect on the date hereof and prudent industry standards with respect to each Aircraft to be insured and as Lessor may otherwise approve in writing. On or before the Delivery Date with respect to any Aircraft, Lessee shall furnish to Lessor a certificate of an authorized representative of the insurers containing a reasonable description of the insurance then carried and maintained for such Aircraft and certifying to the fact that such insurance meets the requirements of this Section 9, to the extent applicable. |
|||||
(b) Additional Insurance. Nothing contained in this Section 9 shall prohibit Lessee from maintaining, at its own expense, insurance for its own account with respect to loss or damage to, or liability arising from all or any portion of the Aircraft, so long as such insurance does not materially interfere with any insurance required to be carried by Lessee under this Section 9. |
|||||
SECTION 10. General Indemnity. |
|||||
(a) Lessee agrees to indemnify, on an after - Tax basis, Lessor (both in its individual capacity and as Trustee under the Trust Agreements), Owner Participant and each of its members, AMP Investments, L.L.C. and each of its members, and their respective Affiliates, successors and permitted assigns, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents (each, an "Indemnified Person") and hold each of them harmless from and against any and all liabilities (including without limitation liability in tort), losses, obligations, claims (including injury to third Persons or property of third Persons) damages, penalties, causes of action, suits, costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees and expenses) or judgments of any nature that may be incurred by any such Indemnified Person (but, with respect to any particular Indemnified Person, excluding any such Claims (x) to the extent incurred by reason of or arising as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person, and (y) that are in the nature of Taxes) arising out of, resulting from or relating to any matter arising out of or relating to any Aircraft, any Engine or any Part, this Agreement (and any Individual Leasing Records incorporating this Agreement), or any subleases, including, but not limited to: |

|||||
(ii) any violation or alleged violation by Lessee of (a) any provision of or transaction contemplated by this Agreement, the applicable Lease or of any contract or agreement to which Lessee is a party or by which it is bound (including the breach or inaccuracy of any of the representations or warranties of Lessee set forth in this Agreement or any ILR), or (b) any applicable law or governmental rule or regulation applicable at any time to any Aircraft or any action or transaction by Lessee with respect thereto or pursuant to this Agreement; or |

(i) Promptly after receipt by any Indemnified Person of notice of the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding or the written assertion of any claim or demand in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder (an "Indemnified Matter"), the Indemnified Person shall notify Lessee in writing (the "Claim Notice") of such notice. Lessee shall at its own expense assume the defense of such Indemnified Matter within 30 days after receipt of the Claim Notice; provided that the Indemnified Person shall upon reasonable notice by Lessee consult from time to time. in respect of such Indemnified Matter and provide Lessee with any documents or other items or access to any witness which Lessee deems in its reasonable judgment to be necessary in connection with any Indemnified Matter and any reasonable out-of-pocket costs therefor shall be paid or reimbursed by Lessee. The Indemnified Person may participate in the defense of any Indemnified Matter and employ separate counsel, at its own expense; provided that if the defendants or potential defendants or obligors in connection with any Indemnified Matter shall include both Lessee and an Indemnified Person, and such Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that counsel selected by Lessee has a conflict of interest because of the availability of different or additional defenses to such Indemnified Person, such Indemnified Person shall have the right to select separate counsel to participate in the defense or handling of such Indemnified Matter on its behalf, at the expense of Lessee. So long as no Event of Default with respect to an Aircraft shall have occurred and be continuing, Lessee may, in its sole discretion, defend, settle or compromise any such suit, action or claim with respect to such Aircraft; provided that (x) Lessee shall be solely liable in respect of losses arising-therefrom (whether by payment of any judgment, settlement, amount or indemnity hereunder), and (y) Lessee shall not settle any such suit, action or claim to the extent it involves remedies other than monetary damages without the prior written consent of the relevant Indemnified Person, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If Lessee chooses to defend or prosecute any claim, the Indemnified Person hereto shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof. |
|||||
(ii) Lessee shall not be liable under Section 10(a) hereof with respect to any amount resulting from a claim or demand of which such Indemnified Person had actual knowledge and following which Lessee was not notified on a timely basis and offered the opportunity to assume the defense of such claim or demand as provided under Section 10(b)(i) hereof, but only to the extent Lessee is prejudiced as a result of not having-had timely notice or the opportunity to assume the defense of such claim-or demand; provided, however, that Lessee shall be deemed to have received notice and been offered the opportunity to defend under Section 10(b)(i) hereof if notice of such claim or demand shall have been received by an Affiliate of Lessee. |
|||||
(iii) Lessee and Indemnified Person shall fully cooperate with each other in regard to any such Indemnified Matter, including without limitation, delivering copies of all pleadings, documents, reports and correspondence to the other party, and acting reasonably in all matters in which joint decisions are required. |
|||||
(c) Lessee shall forthwith upon demand reimburse each Indemnified Person for any sum or sums expended with respect to any of the foregoing or shall pay such amounts directly upon request from such Indemnified Person.

Nothing herein contained shall be construed as a guaranty by Lessee of any useful-life or residual value in the Aircraft. |
|||||

|||||
(b) Disclaimer of Warranties. The warranties set forth in this Section 17 are in lieu of all other representations and warranties of Lessor or Owner Participant with respect to the Aircraft, whether written, oral or implied. As between Lessor, Owner Participant and Lessee, execution by Lessee of this Agreement and any ILR shall be conclusive proof of the compliance of each Aircraft subject to the applicable Lease with all requirements of such Lease. LESSOR LEASES AND LESSEE TAKES EACH AIRCRAFT AND EACH PART THEREOF "AS IS" AND "WHERE IS", AND NEITHER LESSOR NOR OWNER PARTICIPANT SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE MADE, AND LESSOR AND OWNER PARTICIPANT HEREBY DISCLAIM, ANY OTHER REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING THE DESIGN OR CONDITION OF SUCH AIRCRAFT, OR ANY PART THEREOF, THE MERCHANTABILITY THEREOF OR THE- FITNESS THEREOF FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE TO SUCH AIRCRAFT OR ANY PART THEREOF, THE QUALITY OF THE MATERIAL OR WORKMANSHIP THEREOF OR CONFORMITY THEREOF TO SPECIFICATIONS, OR THE PRESENCE OR ABSENCE OF ANY LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS, WHETHER OR NOT DISCOVERABLE, NOR SHALL LESSOR OR OWNER PARTICIPANT BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING LIABILITY IN TORT, STRICT OR OTHERWISE), it being agreed that all such risks, as among Owner Participant, Lessor (both as Trustee under the Trust Agreements and in its individual capacity) and Lessee, are to be borne by Lessee, except that each of Lessor (both as Trustee under the Trust Agreement(s) and in its individual capacity) and Owner Participant hereby represents, warrants and covenants that (i) in the case of Lessor, it shall have received whatever title to the Aircraft as was conveyed to Lessor; (ii) on the applicable Delivery Date, and thereafter until the end of the applicable Lease Term, the Aircraft shall be free of Lessor's Liens attributable to it; and (iii) on the date hereof, the applicable Delivery Date, and, in the case of Owner Participant, thereafter until the expiration or termination of this Agreement, it will be a "citizen of the United States" as defined in Title 49 U.S.C. Section 40102(a)(15); provided, however, that in the case of Lessor, Lessor agrees (in its individual capacity) that if at any time it shall obtain actual knowledge that it has ceased to be, or is reasonably likely to cease to be, a "citizen of the United States" as defined in the Act, it will promptly resign as owner trustee under the Trust Agreement (if and so long as such citizenship is necessary under the Act or any other law to permit the continued registration of the Aircraft in the name of Lessor or, if it is not necessary, if and so long as Lessor's citizenship would have a material effect on Lessee or any Permitted Sublessee). The provisions of this Section 17(b) have been negotiated as a basis of the bargain contained in this Agreement, and, except as provided in Section 17(a) and in this Section 17(b), the foregoing provisions are intended to be a complete exclusion and negation of any representation or warranty by Lessor, express or implied, with respect to any Aircraft that may arise pursuant to any law now or hereafter in effect or otherwise. |

Lessor shall not have any duty to make any such inspection or inquiry and shall not incur any liability or obligation by reason of not making any such inspection or inquiry. Any prospective purchaser of any Aircraft and its authorized representative may, subject to the rights of sublessees under subleases in existence prior to subjecting the relevant Aircraft to this Lease, exercise the inspection rights referred to in clause (i). Any sublease or sub-sublease entered into in accordance herewith with respect to any Aircraft shall contain an inspection provision substantially similar to this Section allowing Lessor to inspect such Aircraft. |
|||||
(d) Right to Perform for Lessee. If Lessee shall fail to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained in a Lease, and the effect of such failure is to diminish the value, utility or remaining useful life of an Aircraft in a materially adverse manner (based upon the value, utility and useful life of such Aircraft as of the Delivery Date) or to present the risk of significant damages to Lessor, subject to prior written notice to Lessee and only if such material failure continues after giving Lessee a reasonable opportunity to remedy such failure (which, in no event shall be more than five Business Days), Lessor may, but shall not be obligated to, perform or comply with such agreement, and the amount of all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred by Lessor in connection with such performance or compliance, together with interest thereon at the Late Payment Rate from and including the date of performance by Lessor to but not including the date of payment by Lessee, shall be payable by Lessee to Lessor upon demand. No such payment or performance shall waive any Event of Default or relieve Lessee of any of its obligations hereunder. |
|||||
(e) Liens. Each of Lessor (in its individual capacity and as Trustee under the Trust Agreement(s)) and Owner Participant agrees that it shall not directly or indirectly create, incur, assume or suffer to exist, and shall immediately remove or cause to be removed, any Lessor's Lien attributable to .it on or with respect to any Aircraft, title thereto or any interest therein other than the obligations of this Lease Agreement and Liens being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings so long as such proceedings do not result in any material risk of the sale or forfeiture of the Aircraft or any interest therein (except to the extent Lessor or Owner Participant, as the case may be, shall have provided security to protect against such risk). |
|||||
SECTION 18. Lessee's Option to Terminate. |
|||||
(a) Right to Terminate. If Lessor shall have entered into a binding agreement to sell an Aircraft, Lessor shall provide written notice of such fact to Lessee at least 10 Business Days prior to the date of the proposed consummation of the sale of such' Aircraft (the "Termination Date"). Lessee shall have the right to terminate the Lease with respect to such Aircraft by giving Lessor irrevocable written notice of its election to exercise such right, which notice shall be given to the Lessor at least 5 Business Days prior to the Termination Date. Upon receipt of such notice from the Lessee, Lessor shall compute the Master Lease Termination Fee and shall provide written notice to the Lessee of the amount of such fee not less than 2 Business Days prior to the Termination Date. |
|||||
(b) Payment of the Master Lease Termination Fee. Lessee shall pay the Master Lease Termination Fee to Lessor on the Termination Date, and Lessee shall simultaneously pay to Lessor all Rent and all other amounts, if any, due or accrued through such date, whereupon the Lease Term of the Lease of such Aircraft shall end. |
|||||
(c) Return of Aircraft. Upon termination of the Lease Term of any Aircraft pursuant to Section 18(a), the Lessee shall return the Aircraft to the Lessor in accordance with Section 14. |
|||||
SECTION 19. Net Lease. Each Lease shall be a net lease and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, shall not terminate, nor shall Lessee be entitled to any abatement, reduction, setoff, counterclaim, defense or deduction with respect to any Interim Rent, Rent or other sum payable hereunder. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or in the applicable ILR, the obligations of Lessee under each Lease shall not be affected by reason of: (a) any damage to or destruction of any Aircraft or any Part thereof by any cause whatsoever; (b) any condemnation of any Aircraft; (c) any prohibition, limitation, restriction or prevention of Lessee's use or enjoyment of any Aircraft by any person; (d) any matter affecting title to any Aircraft or any Part thereof; (e) any loss of possession by Lessee of any Aircraft or any portion, by reason of title paramount or otherwise; (f) the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof or the impossibility or illegality of performance by Lessor or Lessee or both; (g) any action of any federal, state, local or foreign governmental authority; (h) any Bankruptcy of Lessee or any other Person; (i) any breach, default or misrepresentation of Lessor or Owner Participant; or (j) any other cause or occurrence whatsoever, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing. The parties intend that the obligations of Lessee under any Lease shall continue unaffected unless such obligations shall have been modified or terminated pursuant to an express provision of this Agreement or the applicable ILR. |
|||||
SECTION 20. Miscellaneous. |
|||||
(a) Further Assurances. Lessee, at its own expense, shall promptly and duly execute, deliver, file and record all such documents, statements, filings and registrations, and take such further action as Lessor from time to time shall reasonably request in order to (i) establish, perfect and maintain Lessor's title to and interest in each Aircraft as against Lessee or any third party (including any sublessee or sub-sublessee) and (ii) protect the rights and remedies created or intended to be created under any Lease in favor of Lessor.

Lessee agrees that if an officer of Lessee has knowledge of the existence of an Event of Default or any condition or event which constitutes an Event of Default or which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would, unless cured or waived, become an Event of Default, Lessee shall promptly give notice thereof to Lessor. |
|||||
(b) Severability.

|||||
