obligations thereunder. Upon request of the Company and the satisfaction or waiver of the closing
conditions specified in the Underwriting Agreement, the Trustee shall execute, deliver,
authenticate, issue and sell Applicable Certificates in authorized denominations equaling in the
aggregate the amount set forth, with respect to the Applicable Trust, in Schedule I to the
Underwriting Agreement evidencing the entire ownership interest in the Applicable Trust, which
amount equals the maximum aggregate principal amount of Equipment Notes which may be purchased by
the Trustee pursuant to the NPA. Except as provided in Sections 3.03, 3.04, 3.05 and 3.06 of the
Basic Agreement, the Trustee shall not execute, authenticate or deliver Applicable Certificates in
excess of the aggregate amount specified in this paragraph. The provisions of this Section 5.01(a)

Closing Notice relating to one or more Equipment Notes. After receipt of a Closing Notice and in
any case no later than one Business Day prior to a Scheduled Closing Date as to which such Closing
Notice relates (the “Applicable Closing Date”), the Trustee shall (as and when specified in
the Closing Notice) instruct the Escrow Agent to provide a Notice of Purchase Withdrawal to the
Depositary requesting (A) the withdrawal of one or more Deposits on the Applicable Closing Date in

Agreement and (B) the payment of all, or a portion, of such Deposit or Deposits in an amount equal

opinions relating to the Trustee to be duly delivered as required by the Applicable Participation

postponement pursuant to Section 1(e) or 1(f) of the NPA, then the Trustee shall give the
Depositary (with a copy to the Escrow Agent) a notice of cancellation of such Notice of Purchase
Withdrawal relating to such Deposit or Deposits on such Applicable Closing Date. Upon satisfaction
of the conditions specified in the NPA and the Applicable Participation Agreement, the Trustee
shall purchase the applicable Equipment Notes with the proceeds of the withdrawals of one or more
Deposits made on the Applicable Closing Date in accordance with the terms of the Deposit Agreement
and the Escrow Agreement. The purchase price of such Equipment Notes shall equal the principal
amount of such Equipment Notes. Amounts withdrawn from such Deposit or Deposits in excess of the
purchase price of the Equipment Notes or to the extent not applied on the Applicable Closing Date
to the purchase price of the Equipment Notes, shall be re-deposited by the Trustee with the
Depositary on the Applicable Closing Date in accordance with the terms of the Deposit Agreement.

and interest for the benefit of all present and future Applicable Certificateholders, upon the
trusts set forth in the Agreement. By its acceptance of an Applicable Certificate, each initial
Applicable Certificateholder, as a grantor of the Applicable Trust, joins with the Trustee in the
creation of the Applicable Trust. The provisions of this Section 5.01(c) supersede and replace the
provisions of Section 2.03 of the Basic Agreement, with respect to the Applicable Trust.

and conditions of the Agreement. By virtue of its acceptance hereof, the holder of this
Certificate (the “Certificateholder” and, together with all other holders of Certificates
issued by the Trust, the “Certificateholders”) assents to and agrees to be bound by the
provisions of the Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement. The property of the Trust includes
certain Equipment Notes, the Guarantee with respect to such Equipment Notes and all rights of the
Trust to receive payments under the Intercreditor Agreement and the Liquidity Facility (the
“Trust Property”). Each issue of the Equipment Notes is secured by, among other things, a
security interest in an Aircraft owned by the Company.
The Certificates represent Fractional Undivided Interests in the Trust and the Trust Property
and have no rights, benefits or interest in respect of any other separate trust established
pursuant to the terms of the Basic Agreement for any other series of certificates issued pursuant
thereto.
Subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement,
from funds then available to the Trustee, there will be distributed on April 22 and October 22 of
each year (a “Regular Distribution Date”) commencing October 22, 2011 to the Person in
whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the 15th day preceding the
Regular Distribution Date, an amount in respect of the Scheduled Payments on the Equipment Notes
due on such Regular Distribution Date, the receipt of which has been confirmed by the Trustee,
equal to the product of the percentage interest in the Trust evidenced by this Certificate and an
amount equal to the sum of such Scheduled Payments. Subject to and in accordance with the terms of
the Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement, in the event that Special Payments on the Equipment
Notes are received by the Trustee, from funds then available to the Trustee, there shall be
distributed on the applicable Special Distribution Date, to the Person in whose name this
Certificate is registered at the close of business on the 15th day preceding the Special
Distribution Date, an amount in respect of such Special Payments on the Equipment Notes, the
receipt of which has been confirmed by the Trustee, equal to the product of the percentage interest
in the Trust evidenced by this Certificate and an amount equal to the sum of such Special Payments
so received. If a Regular Distribution Date or 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 Certificateholder of this Certificate.
Distributions on this Certificate will be made by the Trustee by check mailed to the Person
entitled thereto, without presentation or surrender of this Certificate or the making of any
notation hereon, except that with respect to Certificates registered on the Record Date in the
A-3
name of a Clearing Agency (or its nominee), such distribution shall be made by wire transfer.
Except as otherwise provided in the Agreement and notwithstanding the above, the final distribution
on this Certificate will be made after notice mailed by the Trustee of the pendency of such
distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency
of the Trustee specified in such notice.
The Certificates do not represent a direct obligation of, or an obligation guaranteed by, or
an interest in, the Company or the Trustee or any affiliate thereof. The Certificates are limited
in right of payment, all as more specifically set forth on the face hereof and in the Agreement.
All payments or distributions made to Certificateholders under the Agreement shall be made only
from the Trust Property and only to the extent that the Trustee shall have sufficient income or
proceeds from the Trust Property to make such payments in accordance with the terms of the
Agreement. Each Certificateholder of this Certificate, by its acceptance hereof, agrees that it
will look solely to the income and proceeds from the Trust Property to the extent available for
distribution to such Certificateholder as provided in the 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, privileges, 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.
Under certain circumstances set forth in Section 7.01 of the Trust Supplement, all of the
Trustee’s right, title and interest to the Trust Property may be assigned, transferred and
delivered to the Related Trustee of the Related Trust pursuant to the Assignment and Assumption
Agreement. Upon the effectiveness of such Assignment and Assumption Agreement (the
A-4
“Transfer”), the Trust shall be terminated, the Certificateholders shall receive
beneficial interests in the Related Trust in exchange for their interests in the Trust equal to
their respective beneficial interests in the Trust, the Certificates representing Fractional
Undivided Interests in the Trust shall be deemed for all purposes of the Agreement and the Related
Pass Through Trust Agreement to be certificates representing the same fractional undivided
interests in the Related Trust and its trust property. Each Certificateholder, by its acceptance
of this Certificate or a beneficial interest herein, agrees to be bound by the Assignment and
Assumption Agreement and subject to the terms of the Related Pass Through Trust Agreement as a
Certificateholder thereunder. From and after the Transfer, unless and to the extent the context
otherwise requires, references herein to the Trust, the Agreement and the Trustee shall constitute
references to the Related Trust, the Related Pass Through Trust Agreement and trustee of the
Related Trust, respectively.
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.
Each Certificateholder and Investor, by its acceptance of this Certificate or a beneficial
interest herein, agrees to treat the Trust as a grantor trust for all U.S. federal, state and local
income tax purposes.
The Trustee, the Registrar, and any agent of the Trustee or the Registrar may treat the person
in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the
Trustee, the Registrar, nor any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
The obligations and responsibilities created by the Agreement and the Trust created thereby
shall terminate upon the distribution to Certificateholders of all amounts required to be
distributed to them pursuant to the Agreement and the disposition of all property held as part of
the Trust Property.
Any Person acquiring or accepting this Certificate or an interest herein will, by such
acquisition or acceptance, be deemed to have represented and warranted to and for the benefit of
the Company that either: (i) the assets of an employee benefit plan subject to Title I of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), or of a plan subject
to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), have not
been used to purchase or hold this Certificate or an interest herein or (ii) the purchase and
holding of this Certificate or an interest herein are exempt from the prohibited transaction
A-5
restrictions of ERISA and the Code pursuant to one or more prohibited transaction statutory or
administrative exemptions.
THE AGREEMENT AND, UNTIL THE TRANSFER, THIS CERTIFICATE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE
PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS. THE RELATED PASS THROUGH TRUST
AGREEMENT AND, FROM AND AFTER THE TRANSFER, THIS CERTIFICATE SHALL BE GOVERNED AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE
PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee, by manual
signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid
for any purpose.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Trustee has caused this Certificate to be duly executed.
