If a claim is made against Lender for any Tax that is subject to indemnification hereunder, Lender shall notify Mortgagor promptly within thirty (30) days after Mortgagor’s receipt of such written notice, and Mortgagor will pay such Tax promptly and in no event later than thirty (30) days after such notice; provided, however, that if Mortgagor elects to contest or assume the defense as therein described and provided that Mortgagor can testify such Tax would not subject the Aircraft to risk of seizure, and Mortgagor so contests or defends in a timely manner and within the legal delays allowed to do so, Mortgagor’s obligation to pay or reimburse shall, if applicable laws allow, be postponed until a settlement of the matter or a decision is rendered on the defense or contestation. Mortgagor’s contestation or defense shall be at Mortgagor’s sole cost and expense.

In case any report or return is required to be made with respect to any Taxes, Mortgagor will either (after notice to Lender) make such report or return in such manner as will show the ownership of the Aircraft in Mortgagor and send a copy of such report or return to Lender or will notify Lender of such requirement and make such report or return in such manner as shall be satisfactory to Lender. Lender agrees to cooperate fully with Mortgagor in the preparation of any such report or return.

3.8 Further Assurances. Mortgagor, from time to time, shall perform or execute and deliver, or cause to be performed or executed and delivered, all such further and other acts, conveyances, transfers, instruments and assurances as may be reasonably appropriate, or as may be requested by Lender, for the better mortgaging, hypothecating, confirming, pledging, granting and perfecting of a lien and security interest unto Lender, in all or in part, of the Mortgaged Property or for facilitating the execution of the lien created by this Mortgage or for securing to Lender the benefit hereof and of the rights and remedies created hereby.

At the request of Lender, Mortgagor shall promptly execute and deliver to Lender such instruments or other documents as Lender may deem necessary or advisable to enable Lender or an agent or representative designated by Lender, at such time or times and place or places as Lender may specify, to obtain possession of all or any part of the Mortgaged Property;

(ii) Lender, either after entry or without entry, may proceed by suit or suits, at law or in equity, to foreclose this Mortgage and to sell all or, from time to time, any part of the Mortgaged Property under the judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction;

(iii) Lender may take legal proceedings for the appointment of a receiver or receivers (to which Lender shall be entitled as a matter of right) to take possession of the Mortgaged Property pending the sale thereof pursuant either to the power of sale given in this Paragraph 4.2 or to a judgment, order or decree made in any judicial proceeding or the foreclosure or involving the enforcement of this Mortgage;

(iv) Lender, either directly or by such agent as it may appoint or by means of a receiver appointed by a court therefor, may enter upon the premises of Mortgagor and any other premises where any of the Mortgaged Property may be located, take immediate possession of the Mortgaged Property and exclude Mortgagor and all other Persons therefrom, using all necessary force so to do;

(v) Lender may appoint a trustee to take title to all or part of the Mortgaged Property on behalf of Lender and to exercise on behalf of Lender any or all of its remedies hereunder, and Mortgagor shall execute and deliver all such instruments and documents as Lender may reasonably request in connection therewith; and

(vi) Upon every taking of possession pursuant to this Paragraph 4.2, Lender from time to time may make all such expenditures for maintenance, insurance, repairs, replacements, alterations, additions and improvements to and of the Mortgaged Property as Lender may deem proper. In each such case, Lender shall have the right to hold, use operate, store, lease, control or manage the Mortgaged Property, and to exercise all rights and powers of Mortgagor relating to the Mortgaged Property, as Lender shall deem appropriate, including the right to enter into any and all such agreements with respect to the use, operation, storage, leasing, control or management of any of the Mortgaged Property as Lender may determine.

(b) No delay or omission of Lender in the exercise of any right, power, remedy or privilege conferred hereunder shall impair any such right, power, remedy or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or acquiescence therein; and every right, power and privilege given by this Mortgage to Lender may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by Lender. No remedy for the enforcement of the rights of Lender shall be exclusive of or dependent on any other such remedy, but any one or more of such remedies from time to time may be exercised independently or in combination.

4.3 Provisions Regarding Sale. Upon any sale of any of the Mortgaged Property, whether made under the power of sale hereby given or under judgment, order or decree in any judicial proceedings, for the foreclosure or involving the enforcement of this Mortgage, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(i) Lender or its representative may bid for and purchase the property being sold and, upon compliance with the terms of sale, may hold, retain and possess and dispose of such property in its absolute right without further accountability, and, in paying the purchase money therefor, may assign to Mortgagor in lieu of cash all or any part of the Note or other Secured Obligations then outstanding or claims for interest thereon, at par, and the Note, in case the portion thereof as assigned shall be less than the amount due thereon, shall be returned to Lender after being appropriately stamped to show partial payment;

(ii) Lender or its representative may make and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers a good and sufficient deed, xxxx of sale and instrument of assignment and transfer of the property sold;

(iii) Lender or its representative is hereby irrevocably appointed the true and lawful attorney of Mortgagor, in its name and stead, to make all necessary deeds, bills of sale and instruments of assignment and transfer of the property thus sold and to deregister and export the property, and for that purpose it may execute and deliver all necessary deeds, bills of sale and instruments of assignment and transfer, and may substitute one (1) or more Person with like power, Mortgagor hereby ratifying and confirming all that its said attorney, or such substitute or substitutes, shall lawfully do by virtue hereof; but if so requested by Lender or by any purchaser, Mortgagor shall ratify and confirm any such sale or transfer, deregistration or export, by execution and delivering to Lender or to such purchaser all property deeds, bills of sale, instruments of assignment and transfer and releases as may be designated in any such request;

(iv) All right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, either at law or in equity or otherwise, of Mortgagor of, in and to the property so sold shall be divested. Such sale shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Mortgagor, its successors and assigns, and against any and all Persons claiming or who may claim the property sold or any part thereof from, through or under Mortgagor, its successor or assigns;

(v) The receipt of Lender shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers at such sale for its or their purchase money, and such purchaser or purchasers and its or their assigns or personal representatives after paying such purchase money and receiving such receipt of Lender shall not be obligated to see to the application of such purchase money or be in anyway answerable for any loss, misapplication or non-application thereof; and

(vi) To the extent it may lawfully do so, Mortgagor agrees that it will not, at any time, insist upon or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption laws, or any law permitting him to direct the order in which the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof shall be sold, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may delay, prevent or otherwise affect the performance or enforcement of this Mortgage or the Secured Obligations, and Mortgagor hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such laws and covenants, and agrees that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power granted and delegated to Lender in this Mortgage, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such laws were in force, except that Mortgagor, in any event, shall have the right, prior to

the disposition of any Mortgaged Property or the entering into of a binding commitment therefor, to obtain the release of such Mortgaged Property from the lien hereof and the return to Mortgagor thereof upon payment of the Secured Obligations in full.

4.4 Application of Monies Received by Lender. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any monies collected pursuant to Article IV or otherwise constituting a part of the Mortgaged Property may be held by Lender as Mortgaged Property or, in the discretion of Lender, applied to the payment of the Secured Obligations. When so applied, such monies shall be applied as follows:

FIRST, to the payment of the principal of any Note then due and payable;

SECOND, to the payment of all Secured Obligations other than principal of any Note;

THIRD, to the payment of all cost and expenses incurred in connection with this Mortgage, the Purchase Agreement or any Note;

FOURTH, the balance to be held as additional collateral security for all Secured Obligations not then due and payable; and

FIFTH, after all Secured Obligations shall have been paid in full, the balance (if any) to be paid over to Mortgagor.

If, after application of all proceeds of the Mortgaged Property, any Secured Obligation shall remain unpaid, Mortgagor (subject to the limitations of Paragraph 6.9 hereof) shall remain liable thereon for the deficiency, and Lender shall preserve its right to assert claims for the deficiency against Borrower under the Purchase Agreement and the Note.

4.5 Waiver of Defaults. By written notice to Mortgagor, Lender may waive any default hereunder and its consequences. Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Default or Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Mortgage; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon.

ARTICLE V - SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

5.1 Discharge. When the principal amount of any Note, together with interest thereon and all Secured Obligations shall have been finally and fully paid, then this Mortgage shall terminate and cease to exist. Thereupon Lender shall discharge this Mortgage and Lender shall execute and deliver to Mortgagor, at Mortgagor’s cost and expense, such instruments in writing as may be requested by Mortgagor to evidence such cancellation and discharge.

ARTICLE VI - MISCELLANEOUS

6.1 Severability.
