ARTICLE I
THE CERTIFICATES
Section 1.01. THE CERTIFICATES. The Applicable Certificates shall be
known as "6.703% Continental Airlines Pass Through Certificates, Series
2001-1A-1-S". Each Applicable Certificate represents a fractional undivided
interest in the Applicable Trust created hereby. The Applicable Certificates
shall be the only instruments evidencing a fractional undivided interest in the
Applicable Trust.
The terms and conditions applicable to the Applicable Certificates
are as follows:
(a) The aggregate principal amount of the Applicable Certificates
that shall be initially deemed issued under the Agreement shall be equal
to the aggregate principal amount of "Outstanding" pass through
certificates representing fractional undivided interests in the Related
Trust on the Transfer Date. Subject to the preceding sentence and Section
5.01 of this Trust Supplement and except for Applicable Certificates
authenticated and delivered under Sections 3.03, 3.04, 3.05 and 3.06 of
the Basic Agreement, no Applicable Certificates shall be authenticated
under the Agreement.
(b) The Regular Distribution Dates with respect to any payment of
Scheduled Payments means June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing

Certificates means any Business Day on which a Special Payment is to be
distributed pursuant to the Agreement.
(d) At the Escrow Agent's request under the Escrow Agreement, the

Certificate shall also effect a transfer or exchange of the related Escrow
Receipt. Prior to the Final Withdrawal Date, no transfer or exchange of
any Applicable Certificate shall be permitted unless the corresponding
Escrow Receipt is attached thereto and also is so transferred or
exchanged. By acceptance of any Applicable Certificate to which an Escrow
Receipt is attached, each Holder of such an Applicable Certificate
acknowledges and accepts the restrictions on transfer of the Escrow
Receipt set forth herein and in the Escrow Agreement.
(e) (i) The Applicable Certificates shall be in the form attached as
Exhibit A to the Related Pass Through Trust Supplement, with such
appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as
are required or permitted by the Related Pass Through Trust Agreement or
the Agreement, as the case may be, or as the Trustee may deem appropriate,
to reflect the fact that the Applicable Certificates are being issued
under the Agreement as opposed to under the Related Pass Through Trust
Agreement. Any Person acquiring or accepting an Applicable Certificate or
an interest therein will, by such acquisition or acceptance, be deemed to
represent and warrant to and for the benefit of each Owner Participant and
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 Applicable Certificates or an interest therein or (ii) the
purchase and holding of Applicable Certificates or an interest therein is
exempt from the prohibited transaction restrictions of ERISA and the Code
pursuant to one or more prohibited transaction statutory or administrative
exemptions.
(ii) The Applicable Certificates shall be Book-Entry
Certificates and shall be subject to the conditions set forth in the Letter of
Representations between the Company and the Clearing Agency attached as Exhibit
B to the Related Pass Through Trust Supplement.
(f) The "Participation Agreements" as defined in this Trust
Supplement are the "Note Purchase Agreements" referred to in the Basic

Agreement, the Deposit Agreement and the Escrow Agreement.
(h) The Applicable Certificates are entitled to the benefits of the
Liquidity Facility.
(i) The Responsible Party is the Company.

"PTC Event of Default" in the Basic Agreement is the Final Maturity Date.
(k) The "particular sections of the Note Purchase Agreement", for
purposes of clause (3) of Section 7.07 of the Basic Agreement, are Section
8.1 (with respect to Owned Aircraft) and Section 9.1 (with respect to
Leased Aircraft) of each Participation Agreement.
(l) The Equipment Notes to be acquired and held in the Applicable
Trust, and the related Aircraft and Note Documents, are described in the

THE TRUSTEE
Section 5.01. ACQUISITION OF TRUST PROPERTY. (a) The Trustee is
hereby irrevocably authorized and directed to execute and deliver the Assignment
and Assumption Agreement on the date specified in Section 7.01 of the Related
Pass Through Trust Supplement, subject only to the satisfaction of the
conditions set forth in said Section 7.01. The Agreement (except only for this
sentence and the immediately preceding sentence hereof, which are effective upon
execution and delivery hereof) shall become effective upon the execution and
delivery of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement by the Trustee and the
Related Trustee, automatically and without any further signature or action on
the part of the Company and the Trustee, and shall thereupon constitute the
legal, valid and binding obligation of the parties hereto enforceable against
each of the parties hereto in accordance with its terms. Upon such execution and
delivery of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the Related Trust shall be
terminated, the Applicable Certificateholders shall receive beneficial interests
in the Applicable Trust in exchange for their interests in the Related Trust
equal to their respective beneficial interests in the Related Trust and the
"Outstanding" (as defined in the Related Pass Through Trust Agreement) pass
through certificates representing fractional undivided interests in the Related
Trust shall be deemed for all purposes of the Agreement, without further
signature or action of any party or Certificateholder, to be Certificates
representing the same Fractional Undivided Interests in the Trust and Trust
Property. By acceptance of its Applicable Certificate, each Applicable
Certificateholder consents to and ratifies such assignment, transfer and
delivery of the trust property of the Related Trust to the Trustee upon the
execution and delivery of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement. The
provisions of this Section 5.01(a) 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 or Section
2.02 of the Basic Agreement shall not apply to the Applicable Trust.

and Assumption Agreement, acknowledges its acceptance of all right, title and
interest in and to the Trust Property and declares that the Trustee holds and
will hold such right, title and interest for the benefit of all then present and
future Applicable Certificateholders, upon the trusts herein and in the Basic
Agreement set forth. By the acceptance of each Applicable Certificate issued to
it under the Related Pass Through Trust Agreement and deemed issued under the
Agreement, each Holder of any such Applicable Certificate as grantor of the
Applicable Trust thereby joins in the creation and declaration of the Applicable
Trust. The provisions of this Section 5.01(b) 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. If the Company shall have
given the Partial Withdrawal Direction to the Trustee, the Trustee shall
instruct (as and when specified in the Partial Withdrawal Direction) the Escrow

portion of the Deposits (in the respective amounts and from the accounts as
shall be specified in the Partial Withdrawal Direction) and payment of accrued
interest thereon in accordance with and to the extent permitted by the terms of
the Escrow Agreement and the Deposit Agreement, all as shall be described in the
Partial Withdrawal Direction. On the date that the Depositary is obligated to
pay the amount of the Partial Withdrawal to the Escrow Paying Agent pursuant to
the Deposit Agreement, the Trustee will make a demand upon the Company under the
NPA for an amount equal to the Deposit Make-Whole Premium in respect of such
Partial Withdrawal.

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

Escrow Agreement or the due execution hereof or thereof by the Company or the

each Applicable Certificate, the Intercreditor Agreement, the NPA and the Escrow
Agreement has been executed and delivered by one of its officers who is duly
authorized to execute and deliver such document on its behalf.
(b) Except as herein otherwise provided and except during the
continuation of an Event of Default in respect of the Applicable Trust created
hereby, no 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 forth in the Agreement, and this Trust Supplement is executed and
accepted on behalf of the Trustee, subject to all the terms and conditions set
forth in the Agreement, as fully to all intents as if the same were herein set
forth at length.
