For purposes hereof, the term “Indenture” means the Indenture and Security Agreement (N936AN), dated as of April 2, 2013, between the Company and Wilmington Trust Company, as Loan Trustee (the “Loan Trustee”), as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with its terms.

otherwise requires, shall have the respective meanings set forth or incorporated by reference, and shall be construed and interpreted in the manner described, in the Indenture.

This Equipment Note shall bear interest, payable on demand, at the Past Due Rate (and not the Debt Rate) (calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days comprised of twelve 30-day months) on any principal amount and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) Premium Amount, if any, interest and any other amounts payable hereunder not paid when due for any period during which the same shall be overdue, in each case for the period the same is overdue. Amounts shall be overdue if not paid in the manner provided herein or in the Indenture when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise).

There shall be maintained an Equipment Note Register for the purpose of registering transfers and exchanges of Equipment Notes at the Corporate Trust Office of the Loan Trustee, or at the office of any successor trustee, in the manner provided in Section 2.07 of the Indenture.

The principal amount and interest and other amounts due hereunder shall be payable in Dollars in immediately available funds at the Corporate Trust Office of the Loan Trustee, or as otherwise provided in the Indenture. The Company shall not have any responsibility for the distribution of any such payment to the Noteholder of this Equipment Note. Each such payment shall be made on the date such payment is due and without any presentment or surrender of this Equipment Note, except that in the case of any final payment with respect to this Equipment Note, this Equipment Note shall be surrendered to the Loan Trustee for cancellation.

The holder hereof, by its acceptance of this Equipment Note, agrees that, except as provided in the Indenture, including the subordination provisions referred to below, each payment of an installment of principal amount, interest and Premium Amount, if any, received by it hereunder shall be applied: first, to the payment of accrued interest on this Equipment Note (as well as any interest on (i) any overdue principal amount, and (ii) to the extent permitted by law, any overdue Premium Amount, if any, any overdue interest and any other overdue amounts hereunder) to the date of such payment; second, to the payment of Premium Amount, if any, with respect to this Equipment Note; third, to the payment of the principal amount of this Equipment Note (or portion thereof) then due hereunder, if any; and fourth, the balance, if any, remaining thereafter to the payment of installments of the principal amount of this Equipment Note (or portion thereof) remaining unpaid in the inverse order of their maturity.

This Equipment Note is one of the Equipment Notes referred to in the Indenture which have been or are to be issued by the Company pursuant to the terms of the Indenture. The Collateral is held by the Loan Trustee as security, in part, for the
