responsible for making its own independent appraisal of an investigation into,

financial condition, creditworthiness, affairs, status and nature of the Company
and it has not relied, and will not hereafter rely, on the Company or any

ARTICLE VIII
CONVERSION
The rights of the holders of the Notes to convert such Notes into shares of
Common Stock of the Company (the "Conversion Rights"), and the terms and
conditions of such conversion, shall be as follows:
Section 8.01. Right to Convert.
(a) The Series A Notes shall be convertible, in whole or in part, at
the option of the holder thereof, at any time after the first anniversary of the
Closing Date, at the office of the Company or its transfer agent, into that
number of the fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock determined in
accordance with the provisions of Section 8.02 below. The Series B Notes shall
be convertible, in whole or in part, at the option of the holder thereof, at any
time after the latest to occur of (i) the date that the Amendment becomes
effective, (ii) the date that the Requisite Stockholder Approval is obtained and
(iii) the first anniversary of the Closing Date, at the office of the Company or
its transfer agent, into that number of the fully paid and nonassessable shares
of Common Stock determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.02
below. In order to convert the Notes into shares of Common Stock, the holder
thereof shall surrender such Notes, duly endorsed, at the office of the Company
or its transfer agent, together with written notice to the Company stating that
it elects to convert the same and setting forth the name or names it wishes the
certificate or certificates for Common Stock to be issued.
(b) The Company shall, as soon as practicable after the surrender of
Notes for conversion at the office of the Company or its transfer agent, issue
to each holder of such Notes, or its nominee or nominees, a certificate or
certificates evidencing the number of shares of Common Stock to which it shall
be entitled and, in the event that only a portion of the Notes are to be
converted, a new Note in the remaining principal amount. Such conversion shall
be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the
date of such surrender of the Notes to be converted, and the person or persons
entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion
shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares
of Common Stock at such date and shall, with respect to such shares, have only
those rights of a holder of Common Stock of the Company.
Section 8.02. Conversion of the Notes.
(a) The Series A Notes shall be convertible, in whole or in part, at
any time after the first anniversary of Closing Date, at the option of the
holder of record thereof, into the number of fully paid and nonassessable shares
of Common Stock equal to (x) the outstanding principal amount of such Series A
Notes being converted divided by (y) the Conversion Price (as defined below).
The Series B Notes shall be convertible, in whole or in part, at any time after
the latest to occur of (i) the date that the Amendment becomes effective, (ii)
the date that the Requisite Stockholder Approval is obtained and (iii) the first
anniversary of the Closing Date, at the option of the holder of record thereof,
into the number of fully paid and nonassessable shares
16
of Common Stock equal to (x) the outstanding principal amount of such Series B
Notes being converted divided by (y) the Conversion Price (as defined below).
(b) Upon conversion of a Note, or any portion thereof, the holder of
such Note shall receive a payment in cash equal to the accrued and unpaid
interest on the Note or the portion so converted as of the date of conversion.
No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of the
Notes. All shares of Common Stock (including fractions thereof) issuable upon
conversion of Notes by a holder thereof shall be aggregated for purposes of
determining whether the conversion would result in the issuance of any
fractional share. If, after the aforementioned aggregation, the conversion would
result in the issuance of any fractional share, the Company shall, in lieu of
issuing any fractional share, pay cash equal to the product of such fraction
multiplied by the Market Price on the date of conversion.
(c) As used herein, "Market Price" for any day means, with respect to
the shares of Common Stock, the volume weighted average price as reported by
Bloomberg (or if such information is not available from Bloomberg, from another
nationally recognized independent pricing source) over the ten (10) Trading Days
immediately prior to the date of calculation; provided, that, for the purposes
of Section 9.04, "Market Price" shall mean the volume weighted average price
over the five (5) Trading Days prior to the date of calculation and the five (5)
Trading Days from and after the date of calculation. If there is no publicly
traded market for the shares of Common Stock, pricing information will be
obtained directly from broker/dealers and active market makers such as banks and
securities firms. In instances where there is no readily available pricing
information, the Board shall determine in good faith the fair value of the
Common Stock, which determination shall be set forth in a certificate by the
Secretary of the Company.
Section 8.03. Conversion Price. The conversion price for the Notes shall
initially be $4.35 and shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as
provided herein (the "Conversion Price").
Section 8.04. Adjustment for Stock Splits and Combinations. If outstanding
shares of the Common Stock of the Company shall be subdivided into a greater
number of shares, or a dividend in Common Stock or other securities of the
Company convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (in which latter event
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of
such securities shall be deemed to have been distributed) shall be paid in
respect to the Common Stock of the Company, the Conversion Price in effect
immediately prior to such subdivision or at the record date of such dividend
shall, simultaneously with the effectiveness of such subdivision or immediately
after the record date of such dividend, be proportionately reduced, and
conversely, if outstanding shares of the Common Stock of the Company shall be
combined into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect
immediately prior to such combination shall simultaneously with the
effectiveness of such combination, be proportionately increased. Any adjustment
to the Conversion Price under this Section 8.04 shall become effective at the
close of business on the date the subdivision or combination referred to herein
becomes effective.
17
Section 8.05. Reorganizations, Mergers, Consolidations or
Reclassifications. In the event of any capital reorganization, any
reclassification of the Common Stock (other than a change in par value), or the
consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another Person (collectively
referred to hereinafter as "Reorganizations"), the holders of the Notes shall
thereafter be entitled to receive, and provision shall be made therefor in any
agreement relating to a Reorganization, upon conversion of the Notes (or deemed
conversion of the Notes in the event that the Reorganization is consummated at
such time as the Notes are not otherwise convertible under the terms hereof),
the kind and number of shares of Common Stock or other securities or property
(including cash) of the Company, or other corporation resulting from such
consolidation or surviving such merger, to which a holder of the number of
shares of the Common Stock of the Company which the Notes entitled the holder
thereof to convert to immediately prior to such Reorganization would have been
entitled to receive with respect to such Reorganization; and in any such case
appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions herein
set forth with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the holders of
the Notes, to the end that the provisions set forth herein (including the
specified changes and other adjustments to the Conversion Price) shall
thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any
shares, other securities or property thereafter receivable upon conversion of
the Notes. In the event of a Reorganization for which the acquiror's shares of
common stock are securities registered under Sections 12 or 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, any agreement relating to such
Reorganization shall provide for the assumption of such Notes by the acquirer,
to the extent not previously converted or redeemed, which Notes shall thereafter
be convertible into the shares of common stock of the acquiror so registered on
the basis set forth in this Section 8.05. The provisions of this Section 8.05
shall similarly apply to successive Reorganizations.
Section 8.06. Sale of Additional Shares.
(a) If at any time or from time to time the Company shall issue or sell
Additional Shares of Common Stock (as hereinafter defined), or is deemed by the
express provisions of this subsection to issue or sell Additional Shares of
Common Stock, other than as a subdivision or combination of shares of Common
Stock as provided in Section 8.04 above, for a consideration per share less than
the then existing Conversion Price, then the existing Conversion Price shall be
reduced, as of the opening of business on the date of such issuance or sale, to
a price determined by dividing (A) an amount equal to the sum of (1) the
applicable Conversion Price immediately prior to such issuance or sale
multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock deemed outstanding at the
close of business on the day before the date of such issuance or sale, plus (2)
the aggregate consideration, if any, received or to be received by the Company
upon such issuance or sale, by (B) an amount equal to the sum of (1) the number
of shares of Common Stock deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issuance
or sale, plus (2) the total number of Additional Shares of Common Stock so
issued. For the purposes of the preceding sentence, the number of shares of
Common Stock deemed to be outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of (i)
the number of shares of Common Stock actually outstanding, and (ii) the number
of shares of Common Stock into which the then outstanding Notes could be
converted if fully converted on the day immediately preceding the given date.
18
(b) For the purpose of making any adjustment in the Conversion Price or
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes, as
provided above, the following provisions shall be applicable:
(i) In case of the issuance of Common Stock for consideration in
whole or in part for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of
cash paid therefor, plus the value of any property other than cash received by
the Company as determined in accordance with clause (ii) below.
(ii) In case of the issuance of Common Stock for consideration in
whole or in part in property or consideration other than cash, the value of such
property or consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value
thereof as determined in good faith by the Board.
(iii) In case of the issuance of (x) options, warrants, or other
rights to acquire or to purchase or to subscribe for Common Stock (whether or
not at the time exercisable), (y) securities convertible into or exchangeable
for Common Stock or (z) options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such
convertible or exchangeable securities (whether or not at the time so
convertible or exchangeable): (1) the aggregate maximum number of shares of
Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options, warrants, or other
rights to acquire or to purchase, or to subscribe for Common Stock (whether or
not at the time exercisable) shall be deemed to have been issued at the time
such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the
consideration (determined in the manner provided in clauses (i) and (ii) above),
if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such options, warrants or
rights plus the purchase price provided in such options, warrants or rights for
the shares of Common Stock covered thereby; (2) the aggregate maximum number of
shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of, or in exchange for, any
such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options to
purchase, or to subscribe for, such convertible or exchangeable securities and
subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at
the time such securities were issued or such options, warrants or rights were
issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration received by the
Company for any such securities and related options or rights, plus the
additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Company upon the
conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related
options, warrants or rights (determined in the manner provided in clauses (i)
and (ii) above); and (3) on the expiration of any warrant, right or option or on
the termination of any right to convert or exchange any convertible or
exchangeable securities, (whether or not at the time so convertible or
exchangeable): the Conversion Price then in effect shall thereupon be readjusted
to the Conversion Price as would have been in effect had the adjustment made
upon the granting or issuance of such warrants, rights or options or convertible
or exchangeable securities (whether or not at the time so convertible or
exchangeable): been made upon the basis of the issuance or sale of only the
number of shares of Common Stock actually issued upon the exercise of such
options, warrants or rights or upon the conversion or exchange of such
convertible or exchangeable securities. No readjustment pursuant to clause (3)
above shall have the effect of increasing the Conversion Price to an amount
which exceeds the lower of (x) the Conversion Price on the original adjustment
date or (y) the Conversion Price that would have resulted from
19
any issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock between the original
adjustment date and such readjustment date.
Section 8.07. Additional Shares of Common Stock. "Additional Shares of
Common Stock" shall mean all shares of Common Stock issued or deemed to be
issued or issuable by the Company, whether or not subsequently reacquired or
retired by the Company, other than (i) shares of Common Stock issued upon the
conversion of the Notes, (ii) shares of Common Stock issued in connection with
any stock split, stock dividend or recapitalization of the Company, (iii) shares
of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Common Stock Warrants, (iv) shares
of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options or other awards made
or denominated in shares of Common Stock under the Company's 2005 Stock
Incentive Plan or any of the Company's other stock plans including any stock
option, stock purchase, restricted stock or similar plan hereafter adopted by
the Board and, if required by applicable Law or stock exchange requirement,
approved by the stockholders of the Company, (v) up to 1,500,000 shares of
Common Stock issuable to unions and employees of Hawaiian, in transactions
approved by the Board, and (vi) up to 1,514,000 shares of Common Stock issuable
upon the exercise of stock options or other awards previously granted to members
of management of the Company and/or Hawaiian, in transactions approved by the
Board.
Section 8.08. Certificate of Adjustment. In each case of an adjustment or
readjustment of the Conversion Price or the number of shares of Common Stock or
other securities issuable upon conversion of the Notes, the Company, at its
expense, shall cause the Chief Financial Officer of the Company to compute such
adjustment or readjustment in accordance with this Certificate of Incorporation
and prepare a certificate showing such adjustment or readjustment, and shall
mail such certificate, by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to each registered
holder of the Notes at the holder's address as shown on the Company's stock
transfer books. The certificate shall set forth such adjustment or readjustment,
showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based,
including a statement of (i) the consideration received or to be received by the
Company for any Additional Shares of Common Stock issued or sold or deemed to
have been issued or sold, (ii) the Conversion Price at the time in effect for
the Notes, and (iii) the number of Additional Shares of Common Stock and the
type and amount, if any, of other property which at the time would be received
upon conversion of the Notes.
Section 8.09. Reservation of Stock Issuable Upon Conversion. The Company
shall at all times (solely with respect to the Series B Notes, from and after
the effectiveness of the Amendment and the receipt of the Requisite Stockholder
Approval), reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares
of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the
Notes, such number of its shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be
sufficient to effect a conversion of all outstanding Notes, and if at any time
the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be
sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding Notes, the Company
shall promptly seek such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel,
be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to
such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose.
20
Section 8.10. No Impairment. The Company shall not participate in any
reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or
sale of securities or any other voluntary action, for the purpose of avoiding or
seeking to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be
observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but shall at all times in good
faith use its best efforts, and assist in carrying out all such action as may be
reasonably necessary or appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights of
the holders of the Notes against dilution or other impairment.
Section 8.11. Minimum Adjustment. No adjustment of the Conversion Price
shall be made if the amount of any such adjustment would be an amount less than
one percent (1%) of the Conversion Price then in effect, but any such amount
shall be carried forward and an adjustment in respect thereof shall be made at
the time of and together with any subsequent adjustment which, together with
such amount and any other amount or amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate
an increase or decrease of one percent (1%) or more.
Section 8.12. Certain Adjustments. The Conversion Price shall not be
adjusted upward except in the event of a combination of the outstanding shares
of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock or in the event
of a readjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to Section 8.06(b)(iii).

30 consecutive Trading Days after the first anniversary of the Closing Date
(subject to the circumstances described in the immediately succeeding sentence
if such triggering event occurs on or after the first anniversary of the Closing
Date and prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date), then each holder
of Series B Notes shall have the right, within 10 Trading Days of such price
exceeding the Conversion Price on the twentieth such day, by written notice
delivered to the Company (the "Holders' Provisional Redemption Demand Notice"),
to require the Company to redeem, no later than ninety (90) days after the

anniversary of the Closing Date and prior to the third anniversary of the
Closing Date, then each holder of Series B Notes, to the extent it desires to
have all or any portion of the Series B Notes redeemed in accordance with this
Section 9.04, must deliver the Holders' Provisional Redemption Demand Notice
within 10 Trading Days after such twentieth day, and the Company shall redeem
the Series B Notes, or the portion thereof specified in the Holders' Provisional
Redemption Demand Notice, within thirty (30) days after the third anniversary of
the Closing Date. To the extent the Holder has not given notice within such 10
Trading Day period, the right to give the Holders' Provisional Redemption Demand
Notice shall terminate until such time as the price has again exceeded the
Conversion Price for at least 20 out of 30 consecutive Trading Days. As used
herein, "Put Redemption Price" shall mean the greater of (1) the Redemption
Price and (2) an aggregate amount equal to the product of: (x) the number of
shares of Common Stock into which the Series B Notes subject to redemption would
have been convertible into as of the date of the Holders' Provisional Redemption
Demand Notice had the Amendment become effective and the Requisite Stockholder
Approval been obtained, and (y) the Market Price of the Common Stock as of the
date of the Holders' Provisional Redemption Demand Notice. The provisional
redemption right pursuant to this Section 9.04 shall automatically expire on the
later to occur of (a) such date, if any, that the Amendment becomes effective,
and (b) such date, if any, that the Requisite Stockholder Approval is obtained.
Section 9.05. Redemption at the Option of the Holders Upon a Change of
Control. In the event of a Change of Control (as defined below), each holder of
Notes shall have the right, by written notice delivered to the Company (the
"Holders' Change of Control Redemption Demand Notice"), to require the Company
to redeem, no later than thirty (30) days after the Company's receipt of the
Holders' Change of Control Redemption Demand Notice, all or any portion of the
22
Notes owned by such holder at a price equal to the Redemption Price, in
accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 9.06. For the purposes of
this Section 7, "Change of Control" means the occurrence of any of the
following: (a) at any time, RC Aviation Management, LLC ceases to have appointed
at least 2, or at least 15%, whichever is greater, of the individuals who
compose the Board, (b) the Company fails to own and control, directly or
indirectly, 100% of the capital stock of Hawaiian Airlines, or (c) any "person"
or "group" (within the meaning of Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")), other than RC Aviation
Management, LLC, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under
the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of 25%, or more, of the capital stock
of Company having the right to vote for the election of members of the Board.
Section 9.06. Redemption Procedure.
(a) At least 10 days (or such shorter period as any holder of Notes may
accept) and not more than 60 days prior to any intended Redemption Date, written
notice (the "Redemption Notice") shall be given by facsimile or first class
mail, postage prepaid, to each holder of record on the record date fixed for
such redemption of Notes at such holder's facsimile number or address as it
appears on the stock books of the Company; provided, that, no failure to give
such notice nor any deficiency therein shall affect the validity of the
procedure for the redemption of any Notes to be redeemed except as to the holder
or holders to whom the Company has failed to give said notice or to whom such
notice was defective.
(b) From and after the Redemption Date, unless there shall have been a
default in payment of the Redemption Price (which amount, for the purposes of
this Section 9.06, shall refer to the Optional Redemption Price in the event of
a redemption pursuant to Section 9.03 hereof or the Put Redemption Price in the
event of a redemption pursuant to Section 9.04 hereof), all rights of the
holders of Notes (except the right to receive the Redemption Price upon
surrender of their Notes) shall cease as to those Notes redeemed, and such Notes
shall not thereafter be transferred on the books of the Company or be deemed to
be outstanding for any purpose whatsoever. If on the Redemption Date the funds
of the Company legally available for redemption of Notes are insufficient to
redeem the total number of Notes to be redeemed on such date, then the Company
will use those funds which are legally available therefor to redeem the maximum
possible principal amount of Notes ratably among the holders of such Notes to be
redeemed based upon their holdings of Notes. Payments shall first be applied
against accrued and unpaid interest and thereafter against the remainder of the
Redemption Price. The Notes not redeemed shall remain outstanding and entitled
to all the rights and preferences provided herein. At any time thereafter when
additional funds of the Company are legally available for the redemption of
Notes such funds will immediately be used to redeem the balance of the Notes to
be redeemed. No dividends or other distributions shall be declared or paid on,
nor shall the Company redeem, purchase or acquire any shares of, the Common
Stock or any other class or series of stock of the Company unless the Redemption
Price per for all Notes elected to be redeemed shall have been paid in full.
Until the Redemption Price for each Note elected to be redeemed shall have been
paid in full, such Note shall remain outstanding for all purposes and entitle
the holder thereof to all the rights and privileges provided herein, including,
without limitation, that interest thereon shall continue to accrue and, if
unpaid prior to the date such
23
Notes are redeemed, shall be included as part of the Redemption Price as
provided in this Section 9.06.
ARTICLE X
EVENT OF DEFAULT
Section 10.01. Event of Default. An "Event of Default" shall exist if any

Redemption Date pursuant to Section 9.01;
(b) the Company defaults in the payment of any interest on the Notes
for more than five (5) days after the same becomes due and payable; or
(c) a court or governmental authority of competent jurisdiction enters
an order appointing, without consent by the Company or any of its subsidiaries,
a custodian, receiver, trustee or other officer with similar powers with respect
to it or with respect to any substantial part of its property, or constituting
an order for relief or approving a petition for relief or reorganization or any
other petition in bankruptcy or for liquidation or to take advantage of any

office or agency designated by it by notice to the last Registrar) a ledger, in
which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, but at its
expense (except as specified below), it shall provide for the registration and
transfer of the Notes or interests therein (the "Register"). No sale, transfer,
hypothecation, participation or assignment of any interest in the Notes shall be

Registrar shall treat the Person in whose name such Note is registered as the
owner thereof for the purpose of receiving all payments thereon and for all
other purposes, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. In the event of a sale,

the Notes on the books maintained for such purpose at the cost and expense of
the assignee.
(c) In the event that any holder sells participations in the Notes,
such holder shall maintain a register on which it enters the names of all
participants in the Notes held by it (the "Participant Register"). A Note may be
participated in whole or in party only by registration of such participation on
the Participant Register, and any participation of such Note or transfer of such
participation may be effected only by the registration of such participation on
the Participant Register
