(B) THE PURCHASE AND HOLDING OF THIS CERTIFICATE ARE EXEMPT FROM THE
PROHIBITED TRANSACTION RESTRICTIONS OF ERISA AND THE CODE PURSUANT TO

Section 5.03. Transfer and Exchange. An Applicable Certificateholder
may transfer an Applicable Certificate by written application to the Registrar
stating the name of the proposed transferee and otherwise complying with the
terms of this Agreement, including providing a written certificate or other
evidence of compliance with any restrictions on transfer. No such transfer shall
be effected until, and such transferee shall succeed to the rights of an
Applicable Certificateholder only upon, final acceptance and registration of the
transfer by the Registrar in
14
the Register. Prior to the registration of any transfer by an Applicable
Certificateholder as provided herein, the Trustee shall treat the person in
whose name the Applicable Certificate is registered as the owner thereof for all
purposes, and the Trustee shall not be affected by notice to the contrary.
Furthermore, DTC shall, by acceptance of a Global Certificate, agree that
transfers of beneficial interests in such Global Certificate may be effected
only through a book-entry system maintained by DTC (or its agent), and that
ownership of a beneficial interest in the Certificate shall be required to be
reflected in a book entry. When Applicable Certificates are presented to the
Registrar with a request to register the transfer or to exchange them for an
equal face amount of Applicable Certificates of other authorized denominations,
the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if
its requirements for such transactions are met. To permit registrations of
transfers and exchanges in accordance with the terms, conditions and
restrictions hereof, the Trustee shall execute and authenticate Applicable
Certificates at the Registrar's request.
Section 5.04. Book-entry Provisions for U.S. Global Certificate and
Offshore Global Certificates. (a) Members of, or participants in, DTC ("Agent
Members") shall have no rights under this Agreement with respect to any Global
Certificate held on their behalf by DTC, or the Trustee as its custodian, and
DTC may be treated by the Trustee and any agent of the Trustee as the absolute
owner of such Global Certificate for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Trustee or any agent of the
Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other
authorization furnished by DTC or shall impair, as between DTC and its Agent
Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the
rights of a holder of any Applicable Certificate. Upon the issuance of any
Global Certificate, the Registrar or its duly appointed agent shall record a
nominee of DTC as the registered holder of such Global Certificate.
(b) Transfers of any Global Certificate shall be limited to transfers
of such Global Certificate or Offshore Global Certificate in whole, but not in
part, to nominees of DTC, its successor or such successor's nominees. Beneficial
interests in the U.S. Global Certificate and any Offshore Global Certificate may
be transferred in accordance with the rules and procedures of DTC and the
provisions of Section 5.05. Beneficial interests in the U.S. Global Certificate
or an Offshore Global Certificate shall be delivered to all beneficial owners in
the form of U.S. Physical Certificates or Offshore Physical Certificates, as the
case may be, if (i) DTC notifies the Trustee that it is unwilling or unable to
continue as depositary for the U.S. Global Certificate or such Offshore Global
Certificate, as the case may be, and a successor depositary is not appointed by
the Trustee within 90 days of such notice or (ii) an Event of Default has
occurred and Applicable Certificateholders with fractional undivided interests
aggregating not less than a majority in interest in the Applicable Trust advise
the Trustee, the Company and DTC through Agent Members in writing that the
continuation of a book-entry system through DTC (or a successor thereto) is no
longer in the Applicable Certificateholders' best interests.
(c) Any beneficial interest in one of the Global Certificates that is
transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in the
other Global Certificate will, upon such transfer, cease to be an interest in
such Global Certificate and become an interest in the other Global Certificate
and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to all transfer restrictions, if
15
any, and other procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such other
Global Certificate for as long as it remains such an interest.
(d) In connection with the transfer of the entire U.S. Global
Certificate or an entire Offshore Global Certificate to the beneficial owners
thereof pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 5.04, such U.S. Global
Certificate or Offshore Global Certificate, as the case may be, shall be deemed
to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Trustee shall
execute, authenticate and deliver, to each beneficial owner identified by DTC in
exchange for its beneficial interest in such U.S. Global Certificate or Offshore
Global Certificate, as the case may be, an equal aggregate principal amount of
U.S. Physical Certificates or Offshore Physical Certificates, as the case may
be, of authorized denominations.
(e) Any U.S. Physical Certificate delivered in exchange for an
interest in the U.S. Global Certificate pursuant to paragraph (b) of this
Section 5.04 shall, except as otherwise provided by paragraph (f) of Section
5.05, bear the Private Placement Legend.
(f) Any Offshore Physical Certificate delivered in exchange
for an interest in an Offshore Global Certificate pursuant to paragraph (b) of
this Section shall, except as otherwise provided by paragraph (f) of Section
5.05, bear the applicable legend regarding transfer restrictions set forth in
Section 5.02(a).
(g) The registered holder of the U.S. Global Certificate or
any Offshore Global Certificate may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any
Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through
Agent Members, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under this
Agreement or the Applicable Certificates.
Section 5.05. Special Transfer Provisions. Unless and until (i) an
Initial Certificate is sold under an effective Shelf Registration Statement, or
(ii) an Initial Certificate is exchanged for an Exchange Certificate pursuant to
an effective Exchange Offer Registration Statement, in each case pursuant to the
Registration Rights Agreement, the following provisions shall apply to such
Initial Certificates:
(a) Transfers to Non-QIB Institutional Accredited Investors.
The following provisions shall apply with respect to the registration of any
proposed transfer of an Applicable Certificate to any Institutional Accredited
Investor which is not a QIB (excluding transfers to or by Non-U.S. Persons):
(i) The Registrar shall register the transfer of any
Applicable Certificate, whether or not such Applicable
Certificate bears the Private Placement Legend, if (x) the
requested transfer is after the time period referred to in
Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act as in effect with respect
to such transfer or (y) the proposed transferee has delivered
to the Registrar a letter substantially in the form of Exhibit
D hereto and the aggregate principal amount of the Applicable
Certificates being transferred is at least $100,000.
(ii) If the proposed transferor is an Agent Member holding a
beneficial interest in the U.S. Global Certificate, upon
receipt by the Registrar of (x) the documents, if any,
required by paragraph (i) and (y) instructions given in
16
accordance with DTC's and the Registrar's procedures, the
Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date of
the transfer and a decrease in the principal amount of such
U.S. Global Certificate in an amount equal to the principal
amount of the beneficial interest in such U.S. Global
Certificate to be transferred, and the Company shall execute,
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the
transferor or at its direction, one or more U.S. Physical
Certificates of like tenor and amount.
(b) Transfers to QIBs. The following provisions shall apply
with respect to the registration of any proposed transfer of an Initial
Certificate to a QIB (excluding Non-U.S. Persons):
(i) If the Initial Certificate to be transferred consists of
U.S. Physical Certificates or an interest in any Temporary
Offshore Global Certificate, the Registrar shall register the
transfer if such transfer is being made by a proposed
transferor who has checked the box provided for on the form of
Initial Certificate stating, or has otherwise advised the
Trustee and the Registrar in writing, that the sale has been
made in compliance with the provisions of Rule 144A to a
transferee who has signed the certification provided for on
the form of Initial Certificate stating, or has otherwise
advised the Trustee and the Registrar in writing, that it is
purchasing the Initial Certificate for its own account or an
account with respect to which it exercises sole investment
discretion and that it, or the Person on whose behalf it is
acting with respect to any such account, is a QIB within the
meaning of Rule 144A, and is aware that the sale to it is
being made in reliance on Rule 144A and acknowledges that it
has received such information regarding the Trust and/or the
Company as it has requested pursuant to Rule 144A or has
determined not to request such information and that it is
aware that the transferor is relying upon its foregoing
representations in order to claim the exemption from
registration provided by Rule 144A.
(ii) Upon receipt by the Registrar of the documents referred
to in clause (i) above and instructions given in accordance
with DTC's and the Registrar's procedures therefor, the
Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date of
such transfer and an increase in the principal amount of the
U.S. Global Certificate in an amount equal to the principal
amount of the U.S. Physical Certificates or interests in the
Temporary Offshore Global Certificate, as the case may be,
being transferred, and the Trustee shall cancel such Physical
Certificates or decrease the amount of such Temporary Offshore
Global Certificate so transferred.
(c) Transfers of Interests in the Permanent Offshore Global
Certificate or Offshore Physical Certificates. The Registrar shall register any
transfer of interests in the Permanent Offshore Global Certificate or Offshore
Physical Certificates without requiring any additional certification.

(d) Transfers to Non-U.S. Persons at any Time. The following
provisions shall apply with respect to any registration of any transfer of an

substantially in the form set forth as Exhibit C hereto from
the proposed transferor.

Registrar shall register any proposed transfer to any Non-U.S.
Person if the Initial Certificate to be transferred is a U.S.
Physical Certificate or an interest in the U.S. Global
Certificate, upon receipt of a certificate substantially in
the form of Exhibit C from the proposed transferor. The
Registrar shall promptly send a copy of such certificate to
the Company.
(iii) (A) Upon receipt by the Registrar of (x) the documents,
if any, required by paragraph (ii) and (y) instructions in
accordance with DTC's and the Registrar's procedures, the
Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date of
such transfer and a decrease in the principal amount of such
U.S. Global Certificate in an amount equal to the principal
amount of the beneficial interest in such U.S. Global
Certificate to be transferred, and (B) upon receipt by the
Registrar of instructions given in accordance with DTC's and
the Registrar's procedures, the Registrar shall reflect on its
books and records the date and an increase in the principal
amount of the Offshore Global Certificate in an amount equal
to the principal amount of the U.S. Physical Certificate or
the U.S. Global Certificate, as the case may be, to be
transferred, and the Trustee shall cancel the Physical
Certificate, if any, so transferred or decrease the amount of
such U.S. Global Certificate.
(e) Private Placement Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or
replacement of Applicable Certificates not bearing the Private Placement Legend,
the Registrar shall deliver Applicable Certificates that do not bear the Private
Placement Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Applicable
Certificates bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Registrar shall deliver
only Applicable Certificates that bear the Private Placement Legend unless
either (i) the circumstances contemplated by paragraph (a)(i)(x) or (e)(ii) of
this Section 5.05 exist or (ii) there is delivered to the Registrar an Opinion
of Counsel to the effect that neither such legend nor the related restrictions
on transfer are required in order to maintain compliance with the provisions of
the Securities Act.
(f) General. By its acceptance of any Applicable Certificate
bearing the Private Placement Legend, each Holder of such an Applicable
Certificate acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of such Applicable
Certificate set forth in this Agreement and agrees that it will transfer such
Applicable Certificate only as provided in this Agreement. The Registrar shall
not register a transfer of any Applicable Certificate unless such transfer
complies with the restrictions on transfer of such Applicable Certificate set
forth in this Agreement. In connection with any transfer of Applicable
Certificates, each Applicable Certificateholder agrees by its
18
acceptance of the Applicable Certificates to furnish the Registrar or the
Trustee such certifications, legal opinions or other information as either of
them may reasonably require to confirm that such transfer is being made pursuant
to an exemption from, or a transaction not subject to, the registration
requirements of the Securities Act; provided that the Registrar shall not be
required to determine the sufficiency of any such certifications, legal opinions
or other information.
Until such time as no Applicable Certificates remain Outstanding, the
Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices and other written
communications received pursuant to Section 5.04 or this Section 5.05. The
Trustee, if not the Registrar at such time, shall have the right to inspect and
make copies of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any
reasonable time upon the giving of reasonable written notice to the Registrar.

instrument.
Section 6.03. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT HAS BEEN DELIVERED IN THE
STATE OF NEW YORK AND THIS AGREEMENT AND THE APPLICABLE CERTIFICATES SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK,

Applicable Certificate or a beneficial interest therein, agrees to treat the
Applicable Trust as a grantor trust for all United States federal, state and

grantor trust for such tax purposes (including as subject to this restriction,
acquiring any Aircraft by bidding the Equipment Notes relating thereto or
otherwise, or taking any action with respect to any such Aircraft once
acquired).

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

[The Holder of this Certificate is entitled to the benefits of the
Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of May 18, 2001, among the Company, the
Trustee and the Placement Agents named therein (the "Registration Rights
Agreement"). Subject to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, in the
event that neither the consummation of the Exchange Offer nor the declaration by
the Commission of a Shelf Registration to be effective (a "Registration Event")
occurs on or prior to the 270th day after the date of the initial issuance of
the Certificates, the interest rate per annum borne by the Certificates shall be
increased by 0.50%, from and including such 270th day, to but excluding the date
on which a Registration
A-4
Event occurs. In the event that the Shelf Registration Statement ceases to be
effective at any time during the period specified by the Registration Rights
Agreement for more than 60 days, whether or not consecutive, during any 12-month
period, the interest rate per annum borne by the Certificates shall be increased
by 0.50% from the 61st day of the applicable 12-month period such Shelf
Registration Statement ceases to be effective until such time as the Shelf
Registration Statement again becomes effective.](3)
Distributions on this Certificate will be made by the Trustee by check
mailed to the Person entitled thereto, without the 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 distributions 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, the Trustee, the
Subordination Agent or any Loan Trustee, Owner Trustee or Owner Participant or
any Affiliate of any 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
any payment or distribution to such Certificateholder pursuant to the terms of
the Agreement and that it will not have any recourse to the Company, the
Trustee, the Subordination Agent or the Loan Trustees except as otherwise
expressly provided in the Agreement, in any Note Document or in the
Intercreditor 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 business 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
Certificateholder and

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.

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

the Certificateholder hereof or such Certificateholder's attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of authorized

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.
The Company, the Trustee, the Registrar and any Paying Agent shall deem
and treat the person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner
hereof for all purposes, and none of the Company, the Trustee, the Registrar or
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.
