with such changes therein as shall have been requested by the Company or
the related Owner Participant (in the case of Lease Financing Agreements),
and agreed to by the Company and, if modified in any material respect, as
to which prior written consent of the Policy Provider shall have been
obtained and as to which Rating Agency Confirmation shall have been
obtained from each Rating Agency by the Company (to be delivered by the
Company to the applicable Pass Through Trustee and the Policy Provider on
or before the relevant Closing Date, it being understood that if Policy

material modifications, no additional Policy Provider consent or Rating
Agency Confirmation shall be required); provided, however, that the
relevant Financing Agreements as executed and delivered shall not vary the
Mandatory Economic Terms and shall contain the Mandatory Document Terms (as
such Mandatory Document Terms may be modified in accordance with Schedule V
hereto). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Financing Agreement annexed

Issuance Date, then, prior to the use thereof in connection with the
financing of any Aircraft hereunder, the Company shall obtain from each
Rating Agency a confirmation that the use of such Financing Agreement would
not result in (A) a reduction of the rating for any class of certificates
below the then current rating for such class of certificates, without
regard to the Policy or (B) a withdrawal or suspension of the rating of any
class of certificates, in each case, without regard to the Policy.
(d) With respect to each New Aircraft, the Company

relating to such Aircraft to which such Loan Trustee is intended to be a
party, and shall concurrently therewith execute such Financing Agreements
to which the Company is intended to be a party and perform its respective
obligations thereunder. Upon the request of either Rating Agency or of the
Policy Provider, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to each
Rating Agency or the Policy Provider, as the case may be, a true and
complete copy of each Financing Agreement relating to the financing of each
New Aircraft together with a true and complete set of the closing
documentation (including legal opinions) delivered to the related Loan
Trustee, Subordination Agent and Pass Through Trustee under the related
Participation Agreement.
(e) If after giving any Closing Notice, there shall
be a delay in the delivery of a New Aircraft, or if on the Scheduled
Closing Date of a New Aircraft the financing thereof in the manner
contemplated hereby shall not be consummated for whatever reason, the
Company shall give the parties hereto and the Policy Provider prompt notice
thereof. Concurrently with the giving of such notice of postponement or
subsequently, the Company shall give the parties hereto and the Policy

Company or Group) and (y) the Cut-Off Date on which the Escrow Agents shall
be entitled to withdraw one or more Deposits under each of the Deposit
Agreements to enable each Pass Through Trustee to fund its purchase of the
related Equipment Notes). Upon receipt of any such notice of postponement,
the Pass Through Trustee shall comply with its obligations under Section
5.01(b) of the applicable Trust Supplement and thereafter the financing of
the relevant New Aircraft shall take place on the Substitute Closing Date
therefor (all on and subject to the terms and conditions of the relevant
Financing Agreements) unless further postponed as provided herein.
(f) Anything in this Section 2 to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Company shall have the right at any time on or before
the Scheduled Closing Date of any New Aircraft, and subsequent to its
giving a Closing Notice therefor, to postpone the Scheduled Closing Date of
such New Aircraft so as to enable the Company to change its election to
treat such New Aircraft as a Leased Aircraft or an Owned Aircraft by
written notice of such postponement to the other parties hereto. The
Company shall subsequently give the parties hereto and the Policy Provider
a substitute Closing Notice complying with the provisions of Section 2(b)
hereof and specifying the new Closing Date for such postponed New Aircraft
(which shall be a Business Day occurring before the earlier of (x) the
180th day following the delivery of the Aircraft from the Seller to the
Company or Group, as the case may be (or, with Rating Agency Confirmation,
a longer period following delivery of such New Aircraft from Seller to the
Company or Group) and (y) the Cut-Off Date and on which the Escrow Agents
shall be entitled to withdraw Deposits under each of the Deposit Agreements
sufficient to enable the applicable Pass Through Trustee to fund its
purchase of the related Equipment Notes). All other terms and conditions of
this Note Purchase Agreement shall apply to the financing of any such New
Aircraft on the re-scheduled Closing Date therefor except the re-scheduled
Closing Date shall be deemed the Closing Date of such New Aircraft for all
purposes of this Section 2.
(g) If the delivery date for any New Aircraft under
the Aircraft Purchase Agreement is delayed for more than 30 days beyond the
month scheduled for delivery or beyond July 1, 2001, the Company may
identify for delivery a substitute aircraft therefor meeting the following
conditions (together with the substitute aircraft referred to in the next
sentence, a "Substitute Aircraft"): (i) a Substitute Aircraft for any
Airbus Model A319, A320 or A321 aircraft must be an Airbus Model A319, A320
or A321 aircraft, respectively, delivered by the Seller to the Company
after June 30, 2000 and (ii) the Company shall be obligated to obtain prior
written consent of the Policy Provider and to obtain Rating Agency
Confirmation in respect of the replacement of any New Aircraft by
Substitute Aircraft. Upon the satisfaction of the conditions set forth
above with respect to a Substitute Aircraft, the New Aircraft to be
replaced shall cease to be subject to this Agreement and all rights and
obligations of the parties hereto concerning such New Aircraft shall cease,
and such Substitute Aircraft shall become and thereafter be subject to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement to the same extent as such New
Aircraft.
(h) The Company shall have no liability for the
failure of the Pass Through Trustees to purchase Equipment Notes with
respect to any New Aircraft or Substitute Aircraft, other than the
Company's obligation, if any, to pay the Deposit Make-Whole Amount pursuant
to Section 5(a)(i) of this Agreement.
(i) The parties agree that if, in connection with the
delivery of a New Aircraft or Substitute Aircraft, any Owner Participant
who is to be a party to any Lease Financing Agreements shall not be a
"citizen of the United States" within the meaning of Section 40102(a)(15)
of the Act, then the applicable Lease Financing Agreements shall be
modified, consistent with the Mandatory Document Terms (as such Mandatory
Document Terms may be modified in accordance with Schedule V hereto), to
require such Owner Participant to enter into a voting trust, voting powers
or similar arrangement satisfactory to the Company that (A) enables such
New Aircraft or Substitute Aircraft to be registered in the United States

the Deposits then available for withdrawal by the Escrow Agent under and in
accordance with the provisions of the related Deposit Agreement.
(k) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding,
the Company and Group shall each have the right to accept delivery of a New
Aircraft under the Aircraft Purchase Agreement on the delivery date
therefor under the Aircraft Purchase Agreement; provided that the Company
shall in any event, give the parties hereto a Closing Notice specifying a
Scheduled Closing Date not later than one hundred eighty (180) days after
the delivery of such New Aircraft under the Aircraft Purchase Agreement
(or, with Rating Agency Confirmation, a longer period following delivery of
such New Aircraft from Seller to the Company or Group) and before the
Cut-Off Date and otherwise complying with the provisions of Section 2(b)
hereof. All other terms and conditions of this Note Purchase Agreement
shall apply to the financing of any such New Aircraft on the new Scheduled
Closing Date therefor except (i) the Scheduled Closing Date shall be deemed
to be the Closing Date of such New Aircraft for all purposes of this
Section 2 and (ii) the related Financing Agreements shall be amended to
reflect the original delivery date of such New Aircraft to the Company.

extent such section requires special counsel for the Lessee to deliver an
opinion relating to Section 1110 of the Bankruptcy Code), 4(a)(xii),

the legal opinions to be provided to such Persons thereunder (recognizing
that the lawyers rendering such opinions may be changed), Sections 7(c),
7(h), the second sentence of Section 7(n), 7(q), 7(z), 14(f) or 14(h) of

of "Make-Whole Amount" in Annex A to the applicable Participation Agreement
