The aggregate face amount of a Restricted Global Certificate may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of DTC or its nominee, or of the Trustee, as custodian for DTC or its nominee for such Restricted Global Certificate, as provided in Section 4.06, which adjustments shall be conclusive as to the aggregate face amount of any such Restricted Global Certificate.

(f) The Exchange Certificates shall be issued in the form of one or more global certificates substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (each, a “Global Exchange Certificate”), except that (i) the Restricted Legend shall be omitted and (ii) such Exchange Certificates shall contain such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations from the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto relating to the nature of the Exchange Certificates as the Responsible Officer of the Trustee executing such Exchange Certificates on behalf of the Trust may determine, as evidenced by such officer’s execution on behalf of the Trust of such Exchange Certificates. Such Global Exchange Certificates shall be in registered form and be registered in the name of a nominee for DTC and deposited with the Trustee, at its Corporate Trust Office, as custodian for DTC. The aggregate principal amount of any Global Exchange Certificate may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of DTC or its nominee, or of the Trustee, as custodian for DTC for such Global Exchange Certificate, as provided in Section 4.06, which adjustments shall be conclusive as to the aggregate face amount of any such Global Exchange Certificate.
Section 4.02 Restrictive Legends. (a) 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 as provided for in the Registration Rights Agreement, each Global Certificate and each Definitive Certificate issued pursuant to this Agreement shall bear a legend to the following effect (the “Restricted Legend”) except as provided in Section 4.06 of this Trust Supplement or unless the Company and the Trustee determine otherwise consistent with applicable law:
16
THIS CERTIFICATE HAS NOT BEEN AND WILL NOT BE REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD WITHIN THE UNITED STATES OR TO, OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OR BENEFIT OF, ANY PERSONS EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE. BY ITS ACQUISITION OR ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, THE HOLDER (1) REPRESENTS THAT (A) IT IS A “QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER” (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) OR (B) IT IS NOT A U.S. PERSON AND IS ACQUIRING THIS CERTIFICATE IN AN OFFSHORE TRANSACTION IN COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT; (2) AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT WITHIN ONE YEAR AFTER THE LATER OF THE ORIGINAL ISSUANCE OF THIS CERTIFICATE OR THE LAST DATE ON WHICH THIS CERTIFICATE WAS HELD BY LATAM AIRLINES GROUP S.A., THE TRUSTEE OR ANY AFFILIATE OF ANY OF SUCH PERSONS RESELL OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER THIS CERTIFICATE EXCEPT (A) TO LATAM AIRLINES GROUP S.A. OR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES, (B) TO A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (C) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN AN OFFSHORE TRANSACTION IN COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (D) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT (IF AVAILABLE) OR (E) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT; AND (3) AGREES THAT IF IT SHOULD RESELL OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER THIS CERTIFICATE IT WILL DELIVER TO EACH PERSON TO WHOM THIS CERTIFICATE IS TRANSFERRED A NOTICE SUBSTANTIALLY TO THE EFFECT OF THIS LEGEND. [IN THE CASE OF RULE 144A CERTIFICATES: IN CONNECTION WITH ANY TRANSFER OF THIS CERTIFICATE PURSUANT TO CLAUSE (B) OR (D) ABOVE WITHIN ONE YEAR AFTER THE LATER OF THE ORIGINAL ISSUANCE OF THIS CERTIFICATE OR THE LAST DATE ON WHICH THIS CERTIFICATE WAS HELD BY LATAM AIRLINES GROUP S.A., THE TRUSTEE OR ANY AFFILIATE OF ANY OF SUCH PERSONS, THE HOLDER MUST CHECK THE APPROPRIATE BOX SET FORTH ON THE REVERSE HEREOF RELATING TO THE MANNER OF SUCH TRANSFER AND SUBMIT THIS CERTIFICATE TO THE TRUSTEE AND LATAM AIRLINES GROUP S.A., TOGETHER WITH 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 IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT.] AS USED HEREIN, THE TERMS “OFFSHORE TRANSACTION,” “UNITED STATES” AND “U.S. PERSON” HAVE THE MEANINGS GIVEN TO THEM BY REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT. THE PASS THROUGH TRUST AGREEMENT CONTAINS A PROVISION REQUIRING THE REGISTRAR TO REFUSE TO REGISTER ANY TRANSFER OF THIS CERTIFICATE IN VIOLATION OF THE FOREGOING RESTRICTIONS.
(b) Each Global Certificate and each Global Exchange Certificate shall bear the following legend on the face thereof:
UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY, A NEW YORK CORPORATION (“DTC”), TO THE TRUSTEE OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IN EXCHANGE FOR THIS CERTIFICATE IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR IN SUCH OTHER NAME AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC (AND ANY PAYMENT HEREON IS MADE TO CEDE & CO. OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL INASMUCH AS THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN.
17
(c) Each Class A Certificate shall bear the following legend on the face thereof:
BY ITS ACQUISITION HEREOF, THE HOLDER REPRESENTS THAT (I) EITHER (A) NO ASSETS OF A PLAN OR ANY TRUST ESTABLISHED WITH RESPECT TO A PLAN HAVE BEEN USED TO ACQUIRE THIS CERTIFICATE OR AN INTEREST HEREIN OR (B) THE PURCHASE AND HOLDING OF THIS CERTIFICATE OR INTEREST HEREIN BY SUCH A PERSON ARE EXEMPT FROM THE PROHIBITED TRANSACTION RESTRICTIONS OF ERISA AND THE CODE OR SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR PROVISIONS OF FOREIGN, FEDERAL, STATE OR LOCAL LAW PURSUANT TO ONE OR MORE PROHIBITED TRANSACTION STATUTORY OR ADMINISTRATIVE EXEMPTIONS OR SIMILAR EXEMPTIONS UNDER SIMILAR LAW, AND (II) IT HAS DIRECTED THE TRUSTEE TO INVEST THE ASSETS HELD IN THE TRUST PURSUANT TO, AND TAKE ALL OTHER ACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY, THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE BASIC AGREEMENT, THE TRUST SUPPLEMENT, THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT, THE DEPOSIT AGREEMENT, THE ESCROW AGREEMENT, THE NPA AND EACH PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT. CERTAIN TERMS USED IN THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL HAVE THE MEANINGS SPECIFIED IN THE AGREEMENT.
Section 4.03 Amendment of Sections 3.04 and 3.05 of the Basic Agreement. Sections 4.04, 4.05 and 4.06 of this Trust Supplement supersede and replace Sections 3.04 and 3.05 of the Basic Agreement, with respect to the Class A Trust.
Section 4.04 Transfer and Exchange. The Trustee shall cause to be kept at the office or agency to be maintained by it in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.12 of the Basic Agreement a register (the “Register”) of the Class A Certificates in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee shall provide for the registration of such Class A Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of such Class A Certificates as herein provided. The Trustee shall initially be the registrar (the “Registrar”) for the purpose of registering such Class A Certificates and transfers and exchanges of such Class A Certificates as herein provided.
All Class A Certificates issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Class A Certificates shall be valid obligations of the Class A Trust, evidencing the same interest therein, and entitled to the same benefits under the Agreement, as the Class A Certificates surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.
18
A Class A Certificateholder may transfer a Class A Certificate, or request that a Class A Certificate be exchanged for Class A Certificates in authorized denominations in an aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest equal to the Fractional Undivided Interest of such Class A Certificate surrendered for exchange for other authorized denominations, by surrender of such Class A Certificates to the Trustee with the form of transfer notice thereon duly completed and executed, and otherwise complying with the terms of the Agreement, including providing evidence of compliance with any restrictions on transfer, in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Registrar. No such transfer shall be effected until, and such transferee shall succeed to the rights of a Class A Certificateholder only upon, final acceptance and registration of the transfer by the Registrar in the Register. Prior to the registration of any transfer by a Class A Certificateholder as provided herein, the Trustee shall treat the person in whose name the Class A 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 a Class A Certificate shall be required to be reflected in a book entry. When Class A Certificates are presented to the Registrar with a request to register the transfer thereof or to exchange them for other authorized denominations of a Class A Certificate in a Fractional Undivided Interest equal to the Fractional Undivided Interest of Class A Certificates surrendered for exchange, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if its requirements for such transactions are met.
The Registrar shall not register the transfer or exchange of any Class A Certificate in the name of any Person unless and until the conditions to any such transfer or exchange set forth in Section 4.06 of this Trust Supplement shall have been satisfied.
To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges in accordance with the terms, conditions and restrictions hereof, the Trustee shall execute and authenticate Class A Certificates at the Registrar’s request. No service charge shall be made to a Class A Certificateholder for any registration of transfer or exchange of Class A Certificates, but the Trustee shall require payment (from a Person other than the Company) of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Class A Certificates. All Class A Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be cancelled and subsequently destroyed by the Trustee.
Section 4.05 Book-Entry Provisions for Global Certificates and Global Exchange Certificates. (a) DTC Participants shall have no rights under this Agreement with respect to any Global Certificate or Global Exchange 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 or Global Exchange 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 DTC Participants, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any Class A Certificate. Upon the issuance of any Global Certificate or Global Exchange Certificate, the Registrar or its duly appointed agent shall record Cede & Co. or another nominee of DTC as the registered holder of such Global Certificate or such Global Exchange Certificate.
19
(b) Transfers of any Global Certificate or Global Exchange Certificate shall be limited to transfers of such Global Certificate or Global Exchange Certificate in whole, but not in part, to DTC, nominees of DTC, DTC’s successor or such successor’s nominees. Beneficial interests in a Global Certificate or a Global Exchange Certificate may be transferred in accordance with the rules and procedures of DTC and the provisions of Section 4.02 of this Trust Supplement. Beneficial interests in a Global Certificate or a Global Exchange Certificate shall be delivered to all beneficial owners thereof in the form of Definitive Certificates or Definitive Exchange Certificates, as the case may be, if (i) DTC notifies the Trustee in writing that it is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities as depositary for such Global Certificates or Global Exchange Certificates, as the case may be, and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Trustee within 90 days of such notice or (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Class A Certificateholders with Fractional Undivided Interests aggregating not less than a majority in interest in the Class A Trust advise the Trustee, the Company and DTC through DTC Participants in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system through DTC (or a successor thereto) is no longer in the Class A Certificateholders’ best interests. Neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be liable if the Company or the Trustee is unable to locate a qualified successor clearing system.
(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 another 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 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 amount of a Global Certificate or Global Exchange Certificate to the beneficial owners thereof pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 4.05, such Global Certificate or Global Exchange Certificate shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver to each beneficial owner, in exchange for the beneficial interest thereof in such Global Certificate or such Global Exchange Certificate, an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive Certificates or Definitive Exchange Certificates, as the case may be, of authorized denominations, in each case as such beneficial owner and related aggregate principal amount shall have been identified and otherwise set forth (together with such other information as may be required for the registration of such Definitive Certificates or Definitive Exchange Certificates, as the case may be) in registration instructions that shall have been delivered by or on behalf of DTC to the Trustee. None of the Company, the Registrar, the Paying Agent or the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such registration instructions and each such Person may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such registration instructions. Upon the issuance of any Definitive Certificate or Definitive Exchange Certificate, the Trustee shall recognize the Person in whose name such Definitive Certificate or Definitive Exchange Certificate, as the case may be, is registered in the Register as a Certificateholder hereunder.
(e) Any Restricted Definitive Certificate delivered in exchange for an interest in a Restricted Global Certificate pursuant to Section 4.05(b) of this Trust Supplement shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 4.06(d) of this Trust Supplement, bear the Restricted Legend.
20
(f) Prior to the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, any Regulation S Definitive Certificate delivered in exchange for an interest in a Regulation S Global Certificate pursuant to Section 4.05(b) of this Trust Supplement shall bear the Restricted Legend.
(g) The registered Holder of a Global Certificate or Global Exchange Certificate may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including DTC Participants and Persons that may hold interests through DTC Participants, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under this Agreement or the Class A Certificates.
(h) Neither the Company, nor the Trustee, nor the Registrar, nor the Paying Agent shall have any responsibility or liability for: (i) any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in the Global Certificates or the Global Exchange Certificates, (ii) maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests or (iii) the performance by DTC, any DTC Participant or any Indirect Participant of their respective obligations under the rules, regulations and procedures creating and affecting DTC and its operation or any other statutory, regulatory, contractual or customary procedures governing their obligations.
Section 4.06 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 with respect to the registration of any proposed offer, pledge, resale or other transfer of such Initial Certificates:
(a) 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 Restricted Definitive Certificates, or of an interest in any Regulation S Global Certificate during the Distribution Compliance Period, 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 transfer notice attached to 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 transfer notice attached to 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, 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 Class A 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.
21
(ii) Upon receipt by the Registrar of the documents required by 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 face amount of a Restricted Global Certificate in an amount equal to the face amount of the Restricted Definitive Certificates or interests in such Regulation S Global Certificate, as the case may be, being transferred, and the Trustee shall cancel such Definitive Certificates or decrease the amount of such Regulation S Global Certificate so transferred.
(b) Transfers of Interests in the Regulation S Global Certificates or Regulation S Definitive Certificates. After the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, the Registrar shall register any transfer of interests in any Regulation S Global Certificate or Regulation S Definitive Certificate without requiring any additional certification. Until the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, interests in the Regulation S Global Certificate may only be held through agent members acting for and on behalf of Euroclear and Clearstream.
(c) Transfers to Non-U.S. Persons at Any Time. The following provisions shall apply with respect to any registration of any transfer of an Initial Certificate to a Non-U.S. Person:
(i) Prior to the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, the Registrar shall register any proposed transfer of an Initial Certificate to a Non-U.S. Person upon receipt of a certificate substantially set forth as Exhibit C hereto from the proposed transferor.
(ii) After the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, the Registrar shall register any proposed transfer of an Initial Certificate to a Non-U.S. Person if the Initial Certificate to be transferred is a Restricted Definitive Certificate or a Restricted Global Certificate, upon receipt of a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto from the proposed transferor. The Registrar shall promptly send a copy of such certificate to the Company.
(iii) Upon receipt by the Registrar of (x) the certificate, if any, required by clause (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 face amount of such Restricted Global Certificate in an amount equal to the face amount of the beneficial interest in such Restricted Global Certificate to be transferred, and, 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 face amount of the Regulation S Global Certificate in an amount equal to the face amount of the Restricted Definitive Certificate or the Restricted Global Certificate, as the case may be, to be transferred, and the Trustee shall cancel the Definitive Certificate, if any, so transferred or decrease the amount of such Restricted Global Certificate.
22
(d) Restricted Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Class A Certificates not bearing the Restricted Legend, the Registrar shall deliver Class A Certificates that do not bear the Restricted Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Class A Certificates bearing the Restricted Legend, the Registrar shall deliver only Class A Certificates that bear the Restricted Legend unless there is delivered to the Registrar, the Trustee and the Company, such certifications, legal opinions or other information as the Registrar, the Trustee or the Company may reasonably require to confirm that neither such Restricted Legend nor the related restrictions on transfer are required in order to maintain compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act.
(e) General. By acceptance of any Class A Certificate bearing the Restricted Legend, each Holder of such a Class A Certificate acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of such Class A Certificate set forth in the Agreement and agrees that it will transfer such Class A Certificate only as provided in the Agreement. The Registrar shall not register a transfer of any Class A Certificates unless such transfer complies with the restrictions on transfer, if any, of such Class A Certificate set forth in the Agreement. In connection with any transfer of Class A Certificates, each Class A Certificateholder agrees by its acceptance of the Class A Certificates to furnish the Company, the Registrar or the Trustee such certifications, legal opinions or other information as any 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 and in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Article IV; 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 Class A Certificates remain Outstanding, the Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices, certifications and other written communications received pursuant to Section 4.05 of this Trust Supplement or this Section 4.06. The Company and the Trustee, if not the Registrar at such time, shall have the right to inspect and make copies of all such letters, notices, certifications or other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving of reasonable written notice to the Registrar.

The purchase price with respect to the Class A Certificates shall be equal to the Pool Balance of the Class A Certificates, together with accrued and unpaid interest in respect thereof to the date of such purchase, and any other amounts then due and payable to the Class A Certificateholders under this Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, any Series A Equipment Note held as the property of the Class A Trust or the related Indenture, Participation Agreement and Lease or on or in respect of the Class A Certificates but without any Premium, provided, however, that if such purchase occurs after (x) a record date specified in Section 2.03 of the Escrow Agreement relating to the distribution of unused Deposits and/or accrued and unpaid interest on Deposits and prior to or on the related distribution date under the Escrow Agreement, such purchase price shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of unused Deposits and/or interest to be distributed under the Escrow Agreement (which deducted amounts shall remain distributable to, and may be retained by, the Class A Certificateholders as of such record date) or (y) the Record Date relating to any Distribution Date, such purchase price shall be reduced by the amount to be distributed hereunder on such related Distribution Date (which deducted amounts shall remain distributable to, and may be retained by, the Class A Certificateholders as of such Record Date); provided, further, that no such purchase of Class A Certificates pursuant to this Section 6.01(a) shall be effective unless the purchaser(s) shall certify to the Trustee that contemporaneously with such purchase, such purchaser(s) is purchasing, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Class B Trust Agreement, the applicable Additional Trust Agreement (if any) or the applicable Refinancing Trust Agreement (as the case may be), and the Intercreditor Agreement, all of the Class A Certificates, the Class B Certificates and, if applicable, the Additional Certificates that rank senior to the Additional Certificates held by the purchasing Additional Certificateholder(s) and, if applicable, the Refinancing Certificates that are senior to the securities held by such purchaser(s) (as the case may be). Each payment of the purchase price of the Class A Certificates referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph shall be made to an account or accounts designated by the Trustee and each such purchase shall be subject to the terms of this Section 6.01(a). Each Class A Certificateholder agrees by its acceptance of its Class A Certificate that it will, upon payment from such Class B Certificateholder(s), Additional Certificateholder(s) or Refinancing Certificateholder(s), as the case may be, 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 as to its own acts) all of the right, title, interest and obligation of such Class A Certificateholder in this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Deposit Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Class A Liquidity Facility, the NPA, the Note Documents and all Class A Certificates and Escrow Receipts held by such Class A Certificateholder (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(s) shall assume all of such Class A Certificateholder’s obligations under this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Deposit Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Class A Liquidity Facility, the NPA, the Note Documents and all such Class A Certificates and Escrow Receipts. The Class A Certificates will be deemed to be purchased on the date payment of the purchase price is made notwithstanding the failure of any Class A Certificateholder to deliver any Class A Certificate and, upon such a purchase, (i) the Class A Certificateholders shall have no further rights with respect to the Class A Certificates and (ii) if the purchaser(s) shall so request, each such Class A Certificateholder will comply with all the provisions of Section 3.04 of the Basic Agreement and the applicable provisions of this Trust Supplement to enable new Class A Certificates to be issued to the purchaser(s) in such denominations otherwise authorized under this Agreement as it shall request. All charges and expenses in connection with the issuance of any such new Class A Certificates shall be borne by the purchaser(s) thereof.
27
(b) This Section 6.01 supplements and, to the extent inconsistent with any provision of Section 6.01(d) of the Basic Agreement, replaces the provisions of Section 6.01(d) of the Basic Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any Operative Agreement, the provisions of this Section 6.01 may not be amended in any manner without the consent of each Class A Certificateholder, Class B Certificateholder and Additional Certificateholder or, as the case may be, Refinancing Certificateholder (in each case, other than the Company or any of its Affiliates in its respective capacity as a Certificateholder) that would be adversely affected thereby; provided that the purchase price under this Section 6.01 (as in effect on the date hereof) for any Certificate held by the Company or any of its Affiliates shall not be modified without the prior written consent of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, if a Certificate Buy-Out Event ceases to exist and another Certificate Buy-Out Event occurs and is continuing, the purchase rights set forth in Section 6.01(a) shall be revived notwithstanding any exercise of such rights during the continuance of any preceding Certificate Buy-Out Event.

THE TRUSTEE
Section 7.01 Delivery of Documents; Delivery Dates. (a) The Trustee is hereby directed (i) to execute and deliver the Intercreditor Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and the NPA on or prior to the date of the initial issuance of the Initial Certificates (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 Purchase Agreement, the Trustee shall execute, deliver, authenticate, issue and sell Class A Certificates in authorized denominations equaling in the aggregate the amount set forth, with respect to the Class A Trust, in Schedule I to the Purchase Agreement evidencing the entire ownership interest in the Class A Trust, which amount equals the maximum aggregate principal amount of Series A Equipment Notes which may be purchased from time to time by the Trustee pursuant to the NPA. Except as provided in Sections 3.03, 3.05 and 3.06 of the Basic Agreement or Section 4.05 of this Trust Supplement or upon exchange of the Initial Certificates for Exchange Certificates, the Trustee shall not execute, authenticate or deliver Class A Certificates in excess of the aggregate amount specified in this paragraph. The provisions of this Section 7.01(a) supersede and replace the first three sentences of Section 2.02(a) of the Basic Agreement and the first sentence of Section 3.02(a) of the Basic Agreement, with respect to the Class A Trust.
(b) On or after the Issuance Date, the Company may deliver from time to time, and in accordance with Section 1(b) of the NPA, to the Trustee a Funding Notice relating to one or more Series A Equipment Notes. After receipt of such a Funding Notice and in any case no later than one Business Day prior to a Funding Date as to which such Funding Notice relates (the “Applicable Funding Date”), the Trustee shall (as and when specified in the Funding Notice) deliver to the Escrow Agent the Withdrawal Certificates and related Applicable Notices of Purchase Withdrawal, as contemplated by Section 1.02(c) of the Escrow Agreement and by such Funding Notice. The Trustee shall (as and when specified in such Funding Notice), subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2 of the NPA, enter into and perform its obligations under the Participation Agreement specified in such Funding 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 Funding Date, the Trustee receives from the Company a notice pursuant to the first sentence of Section 1(f) of the NPA, then the Trustee shall give notice to the Depositary (with a copy to the Escrow Agent) of the cancellation of such Notice of Purchase Withdrawal relating to such Deposit or Deposits on such Applicable Funding Date as contemplated by Section 2.3 of the Deposit Agreement. Upon satisfaction of the conditions specified in the NPA and the Applicable Participation Agreement, the Trustee shall purchase the applicable Series A Equipment Notes with the proceeds of the withdrawals of one or more Deposits made on the Applicable Funding Date in accordance with the terms of the Deposit Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. The purchase price of such Series A Equipment Notes shall equal the principal amount of such Series A Equipment Notes. Amounts withdrawn from such Deposit or Deposits in excess of the purchase price of the Series A Equipment Notes or to the extent not applied on the Applicable Funding Date to the purchase price of the Series A Equipment Notes shall be re-deposited by the Trustee with the Depositary on the Applicable Funding Date in accordance with the terms of the Deposit Agreement. The provisions of this Section 7.01(b) supersede and replace the provisions of Section 2.02(b) of the Basic Agreement with respect to the Class A Trust, and no provisions of the Basic Agreement relating to Postponed Notes and Section 2.02 of the Basic Agreement shall apply to the Class A Trust.
28
(c) With respect to the Class A Trust, Section 4.01(b) of the Basic Agreement is superseded and replaced in its entirety with the following: “The Trustee shall establish and maintain on behalf of the Class A Certificateholders a Special Payments Account as one or more accounts, which shall be non-interest bearing except as provided in Section 4.04 of the Basic Agreement. The Trustee shall hold the Special Payments Account in trust for the benefit of the Class A Certificateholders and shall make or permit withdrawals therefrom only as provided in the Agreement or the Intercreditor Agreement. On each day when one or more Special Payments are made to the Trustee under the Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee, upon receipt thereof, shall immediately deposit the aggregate amount of such Special Payments in the Special Payments Account.”
(d) With respect to the Class A Trust, the second sentence of Section 4.02(c) of the Basic Agreement shall be superseded and replaced in its entirety with the following sentence: “Subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement: (i) in the event of redemption or purchase of Series A Equipment Notes held in the Class A Trust, such notice shall be mailed not less than 15 days prior to the Special Distribution Date for the Special Payment resulting from such redemption or purchase, which Special Distribution Date shall be the date of such redemption or purchase; and (ii) in the case of any other Special Payments, such notice of Special Payment shall be mailed as soon as practicable after the Trustee has confirmed that it has received funds for such Special Payment and shall state the Special Distribution Date for such Special Payment, which shall occur 15 days after the date of such notice of Special Payment or (if such 15th day is not practicable) as soon as practicable thereafter.”
(e) With respect to the Class A Trust, clause (ii) of the third sentence of Section 4.02(c) of the Basic Agreement shall be amended by deleting in its entirety the parenthetical phrase “(taking into account any payment to be made by the Responsible Party pursuant to Section 2.02(b)).”
Section 7.02 Withdrawal of Deposits. If any Deposits remain outstanding on the Business Day next succeeding the Cut-off Date, the Trustee shall promptly give the Escrow Agent notice, as contemplated by clause (ii) of Section 1.02(f) of the Escrow Agreement, that the Trustee’s obligation to purchase Series A Equipment Notes under the NPA has terminated and the Cut-off Date has occurred.
29

Section 9.02 Basic Agreement Ratified. Except and so far as herein expressly provided, all of the provisions, terms and conditions of the Basic Agreement are in all respects ratified and confirmed; and the Basic Agreement and this Trust Supplement shall be taken, read and construed as one and the same instrument.

The Trust Property is expected to include certain Equipment Notes and includes all rights of the Trust and the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, to receive any payments under the Intercreditor Agreement and the Class A Liquidity Facility. Each issue of the Equipment Notes will be secured by, among other things, a security interest in the Aircraft owned by the Company.
1 To be included on the face of each Global Certificate and each Global Exchange Certificate.
The Certificates represent Fractional Undivided Interests in the Trust and the Trust Property, and will 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 February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15 (each, a “Regular Distribution Date”), commencing on August 15, 2015, 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 Series A 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 Series A 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 applicable Special Distribution Date, an amount in respect of such Special Payments on the Series A 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 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.
[The holder of this Certificate is entitled to the benefits of the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of May 29, 2015, among the Company, the Trustee and the representative of the Initial Purchasers 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 SEC of a Shelf Registration Statement to be effective (a “Registration Event”) occurs on or prior the Exchange Deadline (as defined below), the interest rate per annum borne by the Certificates shall be increased by 0.50% per annum effective as of the first day after the Exchange Deadline but only until the Exchange Offer is consummated or the Shelf Registration Statement is declared or otherwise becomes effective under SEC rules. In the event that the Shelf Registration Statement ceases to be available at any time in the manner prescribed and during the period specified by the Registration Rights Agreement for more than 45 days during any three-month period or 120 days within any one-year period, the interest rate per annum borne by the Certificates shall be increased by 0.50% from the 46th day or 121st day, as applicable, until such time as the Shelf Registration Statement again becomes available. The “Exchange Deadline” means the 455th day after the Issuance Date (or, if the last day of such 455-day period is not a Business Day, the first Business Day thereafter).]2
2 To be included only on each Initial Certificate.
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, any Loan Trustee 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 Loan Trustees or any Affiliate of any thereof 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 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 of $1,000 in excess 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.
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.
Each Certificateholder and Person with a beneficial interest herein, by its acceptance of this Certificate or such interest, agrees to treat the Trust as a grantor trust for all U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes.
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 (a) represent and warrant to the Company, the Loan Trustees and the Trustee that either: (i) no assets of a Plan or any trust established with respect to a Plan have been used to purchase or hold this Certificate or an interest herein or (ii) the purchase and holding of this Certificate or interest herein by such Person are exempt from the prohibited transaction restrictions of ERISA and the Code or provisions of Similar Law pursuant to one or more prohibited transaction statutory or administrative exemptions or similar exemptions under Similar Law; and (b) direct the Trustee to invest the assets held in the Trust pursuant to, and take all other actions contemplated by, the terms and conditions of the Basic Agreement, this Trust Supplement, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Deposit Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the NPA, and each Participation Agreement.
THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE.
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.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Trustee has caused this Certificate to be duly executed.
