MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
Section 5.01 Final Termination Date. The respective obligations
and responsibilities of the Company and the Trustee created hereby and the Class
A-1 Trust created hereby shall terminate upon the distribution to all
Certificateholders of Class A-1 Certificates and the Trustee of all amounts
required to be distributed to them pursuant to this Agreement and the
disposition of all property held as part of the Trust Property; provided,
however, that in no event shall the Trust created hereby continue beyond the
expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of
Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, Xx., the father of Xxxx X. Xxxxxxx, former President of the
United States, living on the date of this Trust Supplement.
Section 5.02 Basic Agreement Ratified. Except and so far as
herein expressly provided, all of the provisions, terms and conditions of the
Basic Agreement are in all respects ratified and confirmed; and the Basic
Agreement and this Trust Supplement shall be taken, read and construed as one
and the same instrument.
Section 5.03 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT HAS BEEN DELIVERED IN
THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THIS AGREEMENT AND THE CLASS A-1 CERTIFICATES SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK,
INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, AND THE
OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL

Section 5.04 Counterparts. This Trust Supplement may be executed
in any number of counterparts (and each of the parties shall not be required to

be an original counterpart of this Trust Supplement, but all of such
counterparts together shall constitute one instrument.
Section 5.05 Intention of Parties. The parties hereto intend
that the Class A-1 Trust be classified for United States federal income tax
purposes as a grantor trust under Part 1E of Chapter 1J of Subtitle A of the

taxable as a corporation or as a partnership. Each Certificateholder of a Class
A-1 Certificate, by its acceptance of its Class A-1 Certificate or a beneficial
interest therein, agrees to treat the Class A-1 Trust as a grantor trust for all
United States federal, state and local income tax purposes. The Trustee shall
not be authorized or empowered to do anything that would cause the Class A-1
Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust for such tax purposes (including as
subject to this restriction, acquiring any Aircraft by bidding the Equipment
Notes relating thereto or otherwise, or taking any action with respect to any
such Aircraft once acquired).

The Certificates represent Fractional Undivided Interests in the
Trust and the Trust Property, and will have no rights, benefits or interest in

Basic Agreement for any other series of certificates issued pursuant thereto.
Subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and

Special Distribution Date is not a Business Day, distribution shall be made on
the immediately following Business Day with the same force and effect as if made
on such Regular Distribution Date or Special Distribution Date and no interest
shall accrue during the intervening period. The Trustee shall mail notice of
each Special Payment and the Special Distribution Date therefor to the

extent available for any payment or distribution to such Certificateholder
pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and that it will not have any recourse to
the Company, the Trustee or the Loan Trustees except as otherwise expressly
provided in the Agreement, in any Note Document or in the Intercreditor
Agreement. This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and
reference is made to the Agreement for information with respect to the
interests, rights, benefits, obligations, proceeds and duties evidenced hereby.
A copy of the Agreement may be examined during normal business hours at the
principal office of the Trustee, and at such other places, if any, designated by
the Trustee, by any Certificateholder upon request.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided,
the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Company and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time
by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Certificateholders
holding Certificates evidencing Fractional Undivided Interests aggregating not
less than a majority in interest in the Trust. Any such consent by the
Certificateholder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such
Certificateholder and upon all future Certificateholders of this Certificate and
of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in
lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this
Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain
limited circumstances, without the consent of the Certificateholders of any of
the Certificates.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations
set forth therein, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the
Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the
offices or agencies maintained by the Trustee in its capacity as Registrar, or
by any successor Registrar duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument
of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Registrar, duly executed
by the Certificateholder hereof or such Certificateholder's attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of authorized
denominations evidencing the same aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest in the
Trust will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates
without coupons in minimum denominations of $1,000 Fractional Undivided Interest
and integral multiples thereof except that one Certificate may be issued in a
different denomination. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new
Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate
Fractional Undivided Interest in the Trust, as requested by the
Certificateholder surrendering the same.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of
transfer or exchange, but the Trustee shall require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The Company, the Trustee, the Registrar and any Paying Agent
shall deem and treat the person in whose name this Certificate is registered as
the owner hereof for all purposes,

the Agreement and the disposition of all property held as part of the Trust
Property.
