Certificateholder agrees by its acceptance of its Applicable Certificate that
(at any time after the occurrence and during the continuation of a Triggering
Event) it will, upon payment from such Class D Certificateholder(s) of the
purchase price set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph, forthwith
sell, assign, transfer and convey to the purchaser(s) thereof (without recourse,
representation or warranty of any kind except for its own acts), all of the
right, title, interest and obligation of such Applicable Certificateholder in
the Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Deposit Agreement, the Intercreditor
Agreement, the Liquidity Facility, the Note Purchase Agreement, the Note
Documents and all Applicable Certificates and Escrow Receipts held by such
Applicable Certificateholder (subject to clauses (x) and (y) in the first
sentence of this paragraph and excluding all right, title and interest under any
of the foregoing to the extent such right, title or interest is with respect to
an obligation not then due and payable as respects any action or inaction or
state of affairs occurring prior to such sale) and the purchaser shall assume
all of such Applicable Certificateholder's obligations under the Agreement, the
Escrow Agreement, the Deposit Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement, the
Liquidity Facility, the Note Purchase Agreement, the Note Documents and all such
Applicable Certificates and Escrow Receipts). The Applicable Certificates will
be deemed to be purchased on the date payment of the purchase price is made
notwithstanding the failure of the Applicable Certificateholders to deliver any
Applicable Certificates and, upon such a purchase, (I) the only rights of the
Applicable Certificateholders will be to deliver the Applicable Certificates to
the purchaser(s) and receive the purchase price for such Applicable Certificates
and (II) if the purchaser(s) shall so request, such Applicable Certificateholder
will comply with all the provisions of Section 3.04 of the Basic Agreement to
enable new Applicable Certificates to be issued to the purchaser in such
denominations as it shall request. All charges and expenses in connection with
the issuance of any such new Applicable Certificates shall be borne by the
purchaser thereof.

THE TRUSTEE
Section 5.01. DELIVERY OF DOCUMENTS; DELIVERY DATES. (a) The Trustee is
hereby directed (i) to execute and deliver the Intercreditor Agreement, the
Escrow Agreement and the Note Purchase Agreement on or prior to the Issuance
Date, each in the form delivered to the Trustee by the Company, and (ii) subject
to the respective terms thereof, to perform its 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 Note Purchase Agreement. 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)
supersede and replace the first sentence of Section 3.02(a) of the Basic
Agreement, with respect to the Applicable Trust.
(b) On or after the Issuance Date, the Company may deliver from time to
time to the Trustee a Delivery Notice relating to one or more Equipment Notes.
After receipt of a Delivery Notice and in any case no later than one Business
Day prior to a Scheduled Delivery Date as to which such Delivery Notice relates
(the "APPLICABLE DELIVERY DATE"), the Trustee shall (as and when specified in
the Delivery 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 Delivery Date in accordance with and to the extent
permitted by the terms of the Escrow Agreement and the Deposit Agreement and (B)
the payment of all, or a portion, of such Deposit or Deposits in an amount equal
in the aggregate to the purchase price of such Equipment Notes to or on behalf
of the Owner Trustee or the Company, as the case may be, issuing such Equipment
Notes, all as shall be described in the Delivery Notice. The Trustee shall (as
and when specified in such Delivery Notice), subject to the conditions set forth
in Section 2 of the Note Purchase Agreement, enter into and perform its
obligations under the Participation Agreement specified in such Delivery Notice
(the "APPLICABLE PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT") and cause such certificates,
documents and legal opinions relating to the Trustee to be duly delivered as
required by the Applicable Participation Agreement. If at any time prior to the
Applicable Delivery Date, the Trustee receives a notice of postponement pursuant
to Section 1(e) or 1(f) of the Note Purchase Agreement, 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 Delivery Date. Upon satisfaction of the conditions specified in
the Note Purchase Agreement 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 Delivery Date in
accordance with the terms of the Deposit Agree-
-14-
ment 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 Delivery Date to the purchase price of
the Equipment Notes, shall be re-deposited by the Trustee with the Depositary on
the Applicable Delivery Date in accordance with the terms of the Deposit
Agreement. The provisions of this Section 5.01(b) supersede and replace the
provisions of Section 2.02 of the Basic Agreement, with respect to the
Applicable Trust, and all provisions of the Basic Agreement relating to
Postponed Notes and Section 2.02 of the Basic Agreement shall not apply to the
Applicable Trust.
(c) The Trustee acknowledges its acceptance of all right, title and
interest in and to the Trust Property to be acquired pursuant to Section 5.01(b)
of this Trust Supplement, the Note Purchase Agreement and each Applicable
Participation Agreement, and declares that it holds and will hold such right,
title and interest for the benefit of all present and future Applicable
Certificateholders, upon the trusts set forth in this 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.
Section 5.02. WITHDRAWAL OF DEPOSITS. (a) If the Company shall receive
written notice from Boeing that the delivery date of any Aircraft will be
delayed beyond the Delivery Period Termination Date, the Company may deliver to
the Trustee written notice to such effect and requesting that the Trustee
deliver to the Escrow Agent a Prepayment Withdrawal Certificate pursuant to the
Escrow Agreement directing the Escrow Agent to provide a Notice of Prepayment
Withdrawal to the Depositary requesting the withdrawal of the Deposits relating
to Equipment Notes in respect of such Aircraft in accordance with and to the
extent permitted by the terms of the Escrow Agreement and the Deposit Agreement.

the Cut-off Date, the Trustee shall (i) give the Escrow Agent notice that the
Trustee's obligation to purchase Equipment Notes under the Note Purchase
Agreement has terminated and instruct the Escrow Agent to provide a notice of
Final Withdrawal to the Depositary substantially in the form of Exhibit B to the
Deposit Agreement (the "FINAL WITHDRAWAL NOTICE") and (ii) shall make demand
upon the Company pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement for an amount equal to
the Deposit Make Whole Amount, if any, such payment to be made on the Final
Withdrawal Date.
Section 5.03. THE TRUSTEE. (a) Subject to Section 5.04 of this Trust
Supplement and Section 7.15 of the Basic Agreement, the Trustee shall not be
responsible in any manner whatsoever for or in respect of the validity or
sufficiency of this Trust Supplement, the Deposit Agreement, the Note Purchase
Agreement or the Escrow Agreement or the due execution hereof or thereof by the
Company or the other parties thereto (other than the Trustee), or for or in

duties, responsibilities or liabilities are assumed, or shall be construed to be
assumed, by the Trustee by reason of this Trust Supplement other than as set

This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions 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 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 leased to
or 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 each January 2 and July 2 (a "REGULAR DISTRIBUTION DATE")
commencing January 2, 2000, 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 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, proceeds, and duties evidenced hereby. A copy of the Agreement may
be examined during normal busi-
-3-
ness 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
Certificateholders 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.
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 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 this Certificate
or an interest herein or (ii) the purchase and holding of this Certificate or an
in-
-4-
terest herein are exempt from the prohibited transaction restrictions of ERISA
and the Code pursuant to one or more prohibited transaction statutory or
administrative exemptions.
THE AGREEMENT AND THIS CERTIFICATE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY 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.
