Promptly after the occurrence of a Triggering Event or an Indenture Event of Default resulting from the failure of the Company to make payments on any Equipment Note and on every Regular Distribution Date while the Triggering Event or such Indenture Event of Default shall be continuing, the Company shall, at the Subordination Agent’s request from time to time but in any event no more frequently than once every three months, provide to the Subordination Agent a statement setting forth the following information with respect to each Aircraft then subject to the lien of an Indenture: (A) whether the Aircraft are currently in service or parked in storage, (B) the maintenance status of the Aircraft, and (C) the location of the Engines (as defined in the respective Indentures to which such Aircraft are subject). As used in this Section 4(a)(vi), the terms “Triggering Event”, “Indenture Event of Default” and “Regular Distribution Date” have the respective meanings set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement.

(b) Covenants by U.S. Bank.

(i) Status as Citizen of the United States.

Upon U.S. Bank giving any such notice, U.S. Bank shall, subject to Section 8.01 of any Indenture then entered into, resign as Loan Trustee in respect of such Indenture.

SECTION 5. Depositary Downgrade and Replacement of Depositary.

(a) Depositary Downgrade and Option to Replace. If (1) the Depositary’s Short-Term Rating issued by a Rating Agency is downgraded below P-1 by Moody’s or A-1+ by Standard & Poor’s, as applicable (each such minimum rating, a “Depositary Threshold Rating”), or (2) the Company, in its sole discretion, gives written notice to the Depositary of the Company’s election that the Depositary be replaced, the Company shall, within 30 days after such event occurring, cause the Depositary to be replaced with a depositary bank meeting the terms and on the conditions set forth in Section 5(c) (a “Replacement Depositary”).

(b) [Intentionally omitted.]

(i) Minimum Credit Ratings; Confirmation from Ratings Agency. Any Replacement Depositary may either be (x) one that meets the Depositary Threshold Ratings or (y) one that does not meet the Depositary Threshold Ratings, so long as,

(iii) Replacement Deposit Agreement; Opinions and Other Closing Requirements. The Company shall cause the Replacement Depositary to enter into a Replacement Deposit Agreement for the Class A Certificates with the Escrow Agent (and the Escrow Agent agrees to enter into any such Replacement Deposit Agreement upon request of the Company) and shall cause the Replacement Depositary to deliver to the Company and each Rating Agency legal opinions and other closing documentation substantially similar in scope and substance as those that were delivered by the Depositary being replaced in connection with the execution and delivery of the Deposit Agreement being replaced.

(d) Withdrawal Certificate and Notice of Replacement Withdrawal. Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 5(c), the Company shall instruct the Class A Pass Through Trustee, and the Class A Pass Through Trustee agrees, to execute and deliver to the Escrow Agent a duly completed Withdrawal Certificate (as defined in the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement) together with a Notice of Replacement Withdrawal (as defined in the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement).

(e) Amendments to Documents. Each of the parties hereto agrees, at the Company’s request, to enter into any amendments to this Note Purchase Agreement, the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement and any other Operative Agreements as may be necessary or desirable to give effect to the replacement of the Depositary with the Replacement Depositary and the replacement of the Deposit Agreement with the Replacement Deposit Agreement.

(f) Effect of Replacement. Until the execution and delivery of the Replacement Deposit Agreement, the Deposit Agreement with the Depositary being replaced shall remain in full force and effect.
