BY ITS ACQUISITION HEREOF, THE HOLDER REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT NO ASSETS OF AN EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN SUBJECT TO ERISA OR A PLAN OR ARRANGEMENT SUBJECT TO SECTION 4975 OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OR A FUND OR ENTITY THAT IS USING ASSETS OF, OR IS ACTING FOR THE BENEFIT OF, ANY SUCH EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN, PLAN OR ARRANGEMENT (INCLUDING ANY HELD INDIRECTLY THROUGH THE GENERAL ACCOUNT OF AN INSURANCE COMPANY) HAVE BEEN USED TO PURCHASE THE SECURITIES.

Section 2.04   Method of Payment.  (a) On each Payment Date the Borrower shall make each payment hereunder and under the other Relevant Documents to the extent of the Available Collections therefor, irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off, in U.S. dollars to the Facility Agent for the account of the Holders of each ACS Group Loan, by credit to the Loans Account in same day funds.  The Facility Agent will promptly thereafter cause like funds to be distributed (i) if such payment by the Borrower is in respect of principal, interest, commitment fees or any other Obligation then payable hereunder and under the other Relevant Documents to more than one such Holder, to such Holders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices ratably in accordance with the amounts of such respective Obligations then payable to such Holders and (ii) if such payment by the Borrower is in respect of any Obligation then payable hereunder to one such Holder, to such Holder for

(d)    All computations of interest based on the Base Rate and of fees shall be made by the Facility Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).  Each determination by the Facility Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder and under clause (c) above shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(e)    Whenever any payment hereunder or under the other Related Documents shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or commitment or letter of credit fee or commission, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Loans bearing interest at the Eurodollar Rate to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

(f)    Unless the Facility Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to any Holder hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Facility Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Facility Agent on such date and the Facility Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each such Holder on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due to such Holder.  If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Facility Agent, each such Holder shall repay to the Facility Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Holder together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Holder until the date such Holder repays such amount to the Facility Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Facility Agent in accordance with banking industry practices on interbank compensation.

When Class E Securities are presented to the Class E Security Authenticator with a request to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Class E Securities of other authorized denominations, the Class E Security Authenticator shall make the exchange as requested if the requirements for such transactions are met.  The Administrative Agent shall make a notation on each new Class E Security or Class E Securities of the amount of all payments of principal previously made on the old Class E Security or Class E Securities with respect to which such new Class E Security is issued and the date to which interest accrued on such old Class E Security or Class E Securities has been paid.

 Section 4.02 Acceleration, Rescission and Annulment.  (a) If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default under Section 4.01(f) or (g) hereof) occurs and is continuing, the Controlling Party may, and (if the Controlling Party is the Facility Agent, upon the written direction of  the Required Lenders, shall) give a Default Notice to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Guarantor, the Facility Agent and the Operating Bank, declaring the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Loans and the Class E Securities and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon to be due and payable.  If the Controlling Party is the Liquidity Facility Provider, only it may give a Default Notice.  Upon delivery of a Default Notice, such Outstanding Principal Balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon shall be due and payable.  At any time after the Controlling Party has declared the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Loans and the Class E Securities to be due and payable and prior to the exercise of any other remedies pursuant to this Article IV, the Controlling Party may (and if the Controlling Party is the Facility Agent, upon the written direction of the Required Lenders, shall) by Written Notice to the Borrower, the Facility Agent (if not the Controlling Party), the provider of any Eligible Liquidity Facility (if not the Controlling Party), the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Facility Agent, subject to Section 4.04(a) hereof, rescind and annul such declaration and thereby annul its consequences if: (i) there has been paid to or deposited with the Facility Agent an amount sufficient to pay all overdue installments of interest on the Loans, and the principal or Repayment Price of the Loans, together with all other amounts that would have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, (ii) the rescission or annulment would not conflict with any judgment or decree and (iii) all other Defaults and Events of Default, other than nonpayment of interest and principal on the Loans that have become due solely because of such acceleration, have been cured or waived.  If the Controlling Party is the Liquidity Facility Provider, only it may give a notice of annulment.  If an Event of Default under Section 4.01(f) or (g) hereof occurs, the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Loans and the Class E Securities and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon shall automatically become due and payable without any further action by any party.

(b)    Notwithstanding this Section 4.02 and Section 4.03 hereof, after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, no Holders of any Loans and the Class E Securities other than the Senior Class may give or direct the giving of a Default Notice or exercise or direct the exercise of any remedy in respect of such Event of Default, and no Person other than the Controlling Party may give a Default Notice or exercise any such remedy.

(c)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon the delivery of a Default Notice or if the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Loans and the Class E Securities shall otherwise become due and payable pursuant to Section 4.02(a), if the net assets of the Borrower available to be distributed to the Holders of the Class E Securities under clause (xi) of Section 3.08(c) are less than the outstanding principal amount of the Class E Securities, then the outstanding principal amount of the Class E Securities shall in the aggregate be deemed reduced to an amount equal to such amount of net assets and the Holders of the Class E Securities shall not have a claim for the difference between such amount of net assets and the outstanding principal amount of the Class E Securities.

 Section 4.03 Other Remedies.  If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Facility Agent (at the direction of the Controlling Party if the Facility Agent is not the Controlling Party) may pursue any available remedy by proceeding at

- 75 -

law or in equity to collect the payment of principal or Repayment Price of, or interest on, the Loans and the Class E Securities or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Loans and the Class E Securities or this Intercreditor Agreement.

The Facility Agent may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Loans and the Class E Securities or does not produce any of them in the proceeding.

 Section 4.04 Waiver; Cure of Existing Defaults.  (a) The Controlling Party or (if the Controlling Party is the Facility Agent as representative of the Holders of the Loans) the Required Lenders by notice to the Facility Agent and the Borrower may waive any existing Default hereunder and its consequences, except a Default:  (i) in the deposit or distribution of any payment required to be made on any Loans, (ii) in the payment of the interest on, principal of or premium, if any, with respect to any Loans or (iii) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Section 8.6 of the Credit Agreement cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holders of all the Loans, which (in the case of such Defaults described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii)) may not be waived. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Intercreditor Agreement, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

(b)    Any written waiver of a Default or an Event of Default given by the Controlling Party or the Holders to the Facility Agent and the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Intercreditor Agreement shall be binding upon the Facility Agent and the other parties hereto.  Unless such writing expressly provides to the contrary, any waiver so granted shall extend only to the specific event or occurrence which gave rise to the Default or Event of Default so waived and not to any other similar event or occurrence which occurs subsequent to the date of such waiver.

(c)    If an Event of Default arises under Section 4.01 due to the action of a single ACS Group Member then, if no other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would arise from such transfer, the Borrower may cure such Event of Default by transferring such ACS Group Member to a Person who is not an ACS Group Member.

 Section 4.05 Restoration of Rights and Remedies.  If the Controlling Party has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Intercreditor Agreement, and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Facility Agent or such Holder, then in every such case the Borrower, the Facility Agent and the Holders shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Facility Agent and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding has been instituted.

 Section 4.06 Remedies Cumulative.  Each and every right, power and remedy herein given to the Facility Agent (or the Controlling Party) specifically or otherwise in this Intercreditor Agreement shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other right, power and remedy herein specifically given or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute, and each and every right, power and remedy whether specifically herein

- 76 -

given or otherwise existing may be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Facility Agent (or the Controlling Party), and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of any power or remedy shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right to exercise at the same time or thereafter any other right, power or remedy.  No delay or omission by the Facility Agent (or the Controlling Party) in the exercise of any right, remedy or power or in the pursuance of any remedy shall impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any Default on the part of the Borrower or to be an acquiescence therein.

 Section 4.07    Authority of Courts Not Required. The parties hereto agree that, to the greatest extent permitted by law, the Facility Agent shall not be obliged or required to seek or obtain the authority of, or any judgment or order of, the courts of any jurisdiction in order to exercise any of its rights, powers and remedies under this Intercreditor Agreement, and the parties hereby waive any such requirement to the greatest extent permitted by law.

 Section 4.08 Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Intercreditor Agreement, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal or Repayment Price of, or interest or any other amounts then due on its Loans or the Class E Security on or after the respective due dates therefor expressed in such Loans or the Class E Security, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

 Section 4.09     Facility Agent May File Proofs of Claim. The Facility Agent may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Facility Agent and of any Holder allowed in any judicial proceedings relating to any Borrower on the Loans its creditors or its property.

 Section 4.10    Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Intercreditor Agreement agree, and each Holder by its acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Intercreditor Agreement or in any suit against the Facility Agent for any action taken or omitted by it as Facility Agent, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defense made by the party litigant.  This Section 4.10 does not apply to a suit instituted by the Facility Agent, a suit instituted by any Holder of any Loan for the enforcement of the payment of principal or Repayment Price of, or interest on its Loan on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Loan, or a suit by the Required Lenders.

 Section 4.11   Control by Holders.  Subject always to the provisions of this Article IV, the Controlling Party shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Facility Agent, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Facility Agent for such class under this Intercreditor Agreement and other Related Documents; provided that, for such class (a) such

- 77 -

direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Intercreditor Agreement and would not involve the Facility Agent in personal liability or expense; and (b) the Facility Agent may take any other action deemed proper by the Facility Agent which is not inconsistent with such direction.

(v)    If the Borrower obtains actual knowledge or receives any written notice that the Borrower, any other ACS Group Member or any person or entity holding any legal or beneficial interest whatsoever therein (whether directly or indirectly) is named on the OFAC SDN List (such occurrence, an “OFAC Violation”), the Borrower shall immediately (i) give written notice to Lender of such OFAC Violation, and (ii) comply with all applicable laws with respect to such OFAC Violation (regardless of whether the party included on the OFAC SDN List is located within the jurisdiction of the United States of America), including the OFAC Laws, and the Borrower hereby authorizes and consents to Lender’s taking any and all steps Lender deems necessary, in its sole discretion, to comply with all applicable laws with respect to any such OFAC Violation, including the requirements of the OFAC Laws (including the “freezing” and/or “blocking” of assets and reporting such action to OFAC).

(vi)    Upon Lender’s request from time to time, the Borrower shall deliver a certification confirming its compliance with the covenants set forth in this Section 5.02(t).

Section 5.03 Operating Covenants.  The Borrower covenants with the Facility Agent as follows:

(a)    Concentration Limits.  Without the prior written consent of the Facility Agent, the Borrower shall not permit any ACS Ireland Subsidiary to lease or re-lease any Aircraft if entering into such proposed Lease would cause the ACS Group Portfolio to exceed any of the Concentration Limits set forth in Exhibit C hereto (as such limits may be adjusted by from time to time with the consent of the Facility Agent, the “Concentration Limits”); provided that the Borrower or any ACS Ireland Subsidiary shall be entitled to renew or extend any Lease to the existing Lessee thereunder irrespective of the effect of such renewal or extension on the Concentration Limits.  The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any ACS Ireland Subsidiary to, (i) lease (including any renewal or extension of any existing Lease) any Aircraft to any Lessee habitually based or domiciled in any of the jurisdictions set forth as “Prohibited” in the last section of the Concentration Limits as set forth on Exhibit C hereto and as amended from time to time upon the receipt of the prior written consent of the Facility Agent (each such

- 96 -

jurisdiction, a “Prohibited Country”), (ii) enter into any Lease (including any renewal or extension of any existing Lease) that expressly permits the Lessee to sublease an Aircraft to a sublessee habitually based or domiciled in a Prohibited Country, or (iii) consent to a sublease of an Aircraft to a sublessee habitually based or domiciled in a Prohibited Country.

(b)    Compliance with Law, Maintenance of Permits.  The Borrower shall (i) comply, and cause each ACS Ireland Subsidiary to comply, in all material respects with all Applicable Laws, (ii) obtain, and cause each ACS Ireland Subsidiary to obtain, all material governmental (including regulatory) registrations, certificates, licenses, permits and authorizations required for the use and operation of the Aircraft owned by it, including, without limitation, a current certificate of airworthiness for each such Aircraft (issued by the Applicable Aviation Authority and in the appropriate category for the nature of the operations of such Aircraft), except that (A) no certificate of airworthiness shall be required for any Aircraft (x) during any period when such Aircraft is undergoing maintenance, modification or repair or (y) following the withdrawal or suspension by such Applicable Aviation Authority of certificates of airworthiness in respect of all aircraft of the same model or period of manufacture as such Aircraft (in which case the Borrower shall comply, and cause each ACS Ireland Subsidiary to comply, with all directions of such Applicable Aviation Authority in connection with such withdrawal or suspension), (B) no registrations, certificates, licenses, permits or authorizations required for the use or operation of any Aircraft need be obtained with respect to any period when such Aircraft is not being operated and (C) no such registrations, certificates, licenses, permits or authorizations shall be required to be maintained for any Aircraft that is not the subject of a Lease, except to the extent required under Applicable Laws, (iii) not cause or knowingly permit, directly or indirectly, through any ACS Ireland Subsidiary, any Lessee to operate any Aircraft under any Lease in any material respect contrary to any Applicable Law and (iv) not knowingly permit, directly or indirectly, through any ACS Ireland Subsidiary, any Lessee not to obtain all material governmental (including regulatory) registrations, certificates, licenses, permits and authorizations required for such Lessee’s use and operation of any Aircraft under any operating Lease except as provided, mutatis mutandis, in clauses (ii)(A) and (ii)(B) above.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no breach of this Section 5.03(b) shall be deemed to have occurred by virtue of any act or omission of a Lessee or sub-lessee, or of any Person which has possession of the Aircraft or any Engine for the purpose of repairs, maintenance, modification or storage, or by virtue of any requisition, seizure, or confiscation of the Aircraft (other than seizure or confiscation arising from a breach by the Borrower or an ACS Ireland Subsidiary of this Section 5.03(b)) (each, a “Third Party Event”); provided that (i) neither the Borrower nor any ACS Ireland Subsidiary consents or has consented to such Third Party Event; and (ii) the Borrower or ACS Ireland Subsidiary which is the lessor or owner of such Aircraft promptly and diligently takes such commercially reasonable actions as any leading international aircraft operating lessor would reasonably take in respect of such Third Party Event, including, as deemed appropriate (taking into account, inter alia, the laws of the jurisdictions in which the Aircraft are located), seeking to compel such Lessee or other relevant Person to remedy such Third Party Event or seeking to repossess the relevant Aircraft or Engine.

- 97 -

(c)    Maintenance of Assets.  The Borrower shall (i) with respect to each Aircraft and Engine that is subject to a Lease, cause, directly or indirectly, through any ACS Ireland Subsidiary, such Aircraft and Engine to be maintained in a state of repair and condition consistent with the reasonable commercial practice of any leading international aircraft operating lessor with respect to similar aircraft under lease, taking into consideration, among other things, the identity of the relevant Lessee (including the credit standing and operating experience thereof), the age and condition of the Aircraft and the jurisdiction in which such Aircraft will be operated or registered under such Lease and (ii) with respect to each Aircraft that is not subject to a Lease, maintain, and cause each ACS Ireland Subsidiary to maintain, such Aircraft in a state of repair and condition consistent with the reasonable commercial practice of any leading international aircraft operating lessor with respect to aircraft not under lease.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no breach of this Section 5.03(c) shall be deemed to have occurred by virtue of any Third Party Event; provided that (i) neither the Borrower nor any ACS Ireland Subsidiary consents or has consented to such Third Party Event; and (ii) the Borrower or such ACS Ireland Subsidiary which is the lessor or owner of such Aircraft promptly and diligently takes such commercially reasonable actions as any leading international aircraft operating lessor would reasonably take in respect of such Third Party Event, including as deemed appropriate, seeking to compel such Lessee or other relevant Person to remedy such Third Party Event or seeking to repossess the relevant Aircraft or Engine.

(d)    Notification of Facility Agent, Holders, Liquidity Facility Provider and Administrative Agent.  The Borrower shall notify the Facility Agent, the Holders, the Liquidity Facility Provider, and the Administrative Agent in writing as soon as the Borrower or any ACS Ireland Subsidiary becomes aware of any loss, theft, damage, confiscation, requisition or destruction to any Aircraft or Engine if the potential cost of repair or replacement of such asset (without regard to any insurance claim related thereto) may exceed the greater of $2,000,000 and the damage notification threshold contained in the applicable Lease.

(e)    Leases.  The Borrower shall adopt and shall cause the Irish Remarketing Servicer to utilize the pro forma lease in the form provided to the Borrower on the Initial Closing Date as such pro forma lease agreement or agreements may be revised for purposes of the ACS Ireland Group specifically or generally from time to time by the Irish Remarketing Servicer (the “Irish Remarketing Servicer’s Pro Forma Lease”) in a manner consistent with the Irish Remarketing Servicer’s “Standard of Care” and the Irish Remarketing Servicer’s “Conflicts Standard” (as each term is defined in the Irish Remarketing Services Agreement), for use by the Irish Remarketing Servicer on behalf of the Borrower, any ACS Ireland Subsidiary as a starting point in the negotiation of Future Leases with Persons who are not ACS Ireland Group Members; provided, however, that with respect to any Future Lease entered into in connection with (x) the renewal or extension of an Initial Lease, (y) the leasing of an Aircraft to a Person that is or was a Lessee under an Initial Lease or (z) the leasing of an Aircraft to a Person that is or was the lessee under an operating lease of an aircraft that is being managed or serviced by the Irish Remarketing Servicer (such Future Lease, a “Renewal Lease”), a form of lease substantially similar to such Initial Lease or operating lease (a “Precedent Lease”), as the case may be, may be used by the Irish Remarketing Servicer in lieu of the Irish Remarketing Servicer’s Pro Forma Lease on behalf of the Borrower or any ACS Ireland Subsidiary as a starting point in the negotiation of such Future Lease with Persons who are not ACS Ireland Group Members and provided further, however, that if the Board determines, in an annual review of the Irish Remarketing Servicer’s Pro Forma Lease on or before each anniversary of the relevant Closing Date, that any revision to the Irish Remarketing Servicer’s Pro Forma Lease made from time to

- 98 -

time since the preceding review by the Board (or, with respect to the first anniversary of the Initial Closing Date, since the Initial Closing Date) is substantially inconsistent with the core lease provisions of the Borrower set forth in Exhibit F to this Intercreditor Agreement (as such provisions may be amended from time to time, the “Core Lease Provisions”) in a manner and to such a degree as to have a material adverse effect on the Holders, taking into consideration, inter alia, such revision and any risk that the Aircraft might not be able to be leased on terms consistent with the provisions of the Irish Remarketing Servicer’s Pro Forma Lease without such revisions, then the Board shall direct the Irish Remarketing Servicer not to include such revision in the Irish Remarketing Servicer’s Pro Forma Lease to be used thereafter as the starting point in the negotiation of any Future Lease with respect to the Aircraft.  If the Board determines that any such revision to the Irish Remarketing Servicer’s Pro Forma Lease will not have a material adverse effect on the Holders, then the Board shall (i) amend the applicable Core Lease Provisions to incorporate such revisions (ii) notify the Facility Agent and the Liquidity Facility Provider of any Future Lease entered into the terms of which are materially less favorable from the point of view of the lessor than any of the Leases then in effect, including without limitation, changes to the Core Lease Provisions; provided that every Lease shall contain the Core Lease Provisions and the Core Lease Provisions may not be amended without the prior written consent of the Facility Agent.

The Borrower shall not enter into, and shall not permit any ACS Ireland Subsidiary to enter into, any Future Lease the Rental Payments under which are denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars unless the Borrower receives the prior written consent of the Facility Agent; provided, that the Borrower may enter any Future Lease the Rental Payments under which are denominated in euros if (a) the sum of the Adjusted Appraised Values as of the Payment Date immediately preceding any date of determination of each ACS Group Aircraft subject to leases the Rental Payments under which are denominated in euros does not exceed 10% of the sum of the Adjusted Appraised Values as of such Payment Date of all ACS Group Aircraft and (b) the currency exposure is hedged in accordance with the Borrower’s hedging policy.

(f)    Opinions.  The Borrower shall not enter into, and shall not permit any ACS Ireland Subsidiary to enter into, any Future Lease with any Person that is not an ACS Ireland Group Member or change the jurisdiction of registration of any Aircraft that is subject to a Lease, unless, upon entering into such Future Lease or changing the jurisdiction or registration of such Aircraft (or within a commercially reasonable period thereafter), the Irish Remarketing Servicer obtains such legal opinions, if any, with regard to compliance with the registration requirements of the relevant jurisdiction, enforceability of the Future Lease, matters relating to the Cape Town Convention and such other matters customary for such transactions to the extent that receiving such legal opinions is consistent with the reasonable commercial practice of any leading international aircraft operating lessor.

(g)    Insurance.   The Borrower shall maintain or cause, directly or indirectly through the ACS Ireland Subsidiaries, to be maintained with reputable and responsible insurers or, provided that the applicable reinsurance policy contains a cut-through clause requiring the reinsurers to pay the insured directly (other than if and to the extent local law requirements mandate otherwise), with reputable and responsible insurers that maintain relevant reinsurance with reputable and responsible reinsurers (i) airline hull insurance for each Aircraft in an amount

- 99 -

at least equal to the Allocable Debt Amount for such Aircraft (or the equivalent thereof from time to time if such insurance is denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars) and (ii) airline liability insurance for each Aircraft and occurrence in an amount at least equal to the relevant amount set forth on Exhibit D hereto for each model of aircraft and as amended from time to time with the prior written consent of the Facility Agent and (iii) airline repossession insurance (“Repossession Insurance”) for each Aircraft subject to a Lease to a Lessee habitually based in a jurisdiction set forth under the “Repossession Guidelines” set forth in Exhibit C hereto, which may be amended from time to time only upon the receipt of the prior written consent of the Facility Agent, in an amount at least equal to the Allocable Debt Amount (or the equivalent thereof from time to time if such insurance is denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars), for such Aircraft; provided, however, that with respect to any such insurance for any Aircraft subject to a Lease, such insurance may be subject to commercially reasonable deductible and self-insurance arrangements  and may take into account any customary reductions in limits for Aircraft in storage and not in operation (in each case taking into account, inter alia, the creditworthiness and experience of the Lessee, if any, the type of aircraft and market practices in the aircraft insurance industry generally) and provided, further that, in no event shall the aggregate Adjusted Appraised Value of all Aircraft in respect of which insurance is denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars exceed 10% of the sum of the Adjusted Appraised Value of all ACS Group Aircraft.  The coverage and terms (including endorsements, deductibles and self-insurance arrangements) of any insurance maintained with respect to any Aircraft not subject to a Lease shall be substantially consistent with the reasonable commercial practices of any leading international aircraft operating lessor regarding similar aircraft.

In determining the amount of insurance required to be maintained by this Section 5.03(g), the Borrower may take into account any indemnification from, or insurance provided by, any governmental, supranational or inter-governmental authority or agency (other than, with respect to Repossession Insurance, any governmental authority or agency of any jurisdiction for which Repossession Insurance must be obtained), the sovereign foreign currency debt of which is rated at least A, or the equivalent, by at least one of Xxxxx’x or Standard and Poor’s, against any risk with respect to an Aircraft at least in an amount which, when added to the amount of insurance against such risk maintained by the Borrower (or which the Borrower has caused to be maintained), shall be at least equal to the amount of insurance against such risk otherwise required by this Section 5.03(g) (taking into account self-insurance permitted by this Section 5.03(g)).  Any such indemnification or insurance provided by such government shall provide substantially similar protection as the insurance required by this Section 5.03(g).

The Borrower shall cause, or shall cause the applicable ACS Group Subsidiary to cause, each Lessee to be obligated under its respective Lease to maintain War Risk Coverage as part of the insurance requirements in such Lease.  The Borrower shall cause, or shall cause the applicable ACS Group Subsidiary to cause, each Lessee to maintain War Risk Coverage in accordance with the requirements set forth in Exhibit D hereto.  In the event that a Lessee does not maintain such requisite level of War Risk Coverage or allows such War Risk Coverage to lapse, the Borrower shall cause the applicable ACS Group Subsidiary lessor to immediately bring enforcement proceedings against the applicable Lessee under the terms of the applicable Lease to repossess the applicable Aircraft and use commercially reasonable efforts of a leading international aircraft operating lessor to ensure that such Aircraft does not operate without War Risk Coverage at such required levels; provided, however, that so long as the Borrower is in

- 100 -

compliance with the requirements set forth in the next succeeding sentence and the applicable Lessee is not otherwise in default under the related Lease, the Borrower shall have 180 days to cause, or to cause the applicable ACS Group Subsidiary lessor to cause, the Lessee to comply with the insurance requirements set forth herein and under the Lease prior to bringing any such enforcement proceedings; provided further that if, for any reason, neither the Borrower nor the applicable ACS Group Subsidiary lessor has a right under the applicable Lease to require a Lessee to maintain War Risk Coverage at the requisite levels, the Borrower shall nevertheless be obligated to cause such Lessee to maintain War Risk Coverage at the requisite levels described in Exhibit D hereto (by negotiating in good faith with such Lessee or otherwise) or shall otherwise cause War Risk Coverage to be maintained at the requisite levels described in Exhibit D hereto, subject only to the additional time provided in the immediately preceding proviso if the Borrower is in compliance with requirements set forth in the next succeeding sentence and the applicable Lessee is not otherwise in default under the related Lease.  The Borrower shall carry contingent and excess War Risk Coverage in accordance with the requirements set forth in Exhibit D hereto.

The obligations set forth in the foregoing paragraph shall be waived if the Facility Agent shall have provided a written consent to such waiver.

(h)    Indemnity.  The Borrower shall, and shall cause each ACS Ireland Subsidiary to, include in each Lease between the Borrower or such ACS Ireland Subsidiary and a Person who is not an ACS Ireland Group Member an indemnity from such Person in respect of any losses or liabilities arising from the use or operation of the Aircraft during the term of such Lease, subject to such exceptions, limitations and qualifications as are consistent with the reasonable commercial practice of any leading international aircraft operating lessor.

(i)    Appraisal of Aircraft.  The Borrower shall deliver, at least once a year each year and in no event later than with the Monthly Report in respect of May of each year (commencing in 2009), to the Facility Agent, the Guarantor, the Administrative Agent and the Liquidity Facility Provider for inclusion in its next Monthly Report an Appraisal in respect of each Aircraft in the ACS Group Portfolio.

(j)    Aircraft Owner.  At no time shall the Borrower directly own an Aircraft.

 Section 5.04 Compliance Through Agents.  The Borrower shall be entitled to delegate the performance of any of its covenants hereunder to one or more Service Providers pursuant to one or more Related Documents entered into in accordance with the terms of this Intercreditor Agreement so long as each such Related Document is subject to the Lien of the Security Agreement.  Nothing in this Section 5.04 is intended to, or shall, relieve the Borrower from any liability or consequences hereunder arising from the failure of the Borrower or any such Service Provider to perform any such covenant strictly in accordance with the terms of this Intercreditor Agreement.

 Section 5.05 Consent of Administrative Agent.  Unless otherwise specified in this Article V, any consent or approval required from the Facility Agent shall be provided upon the instruction of the Required Lenders.

(c)    All payments or distributions upon or with respect to any Obligations that are received by any Subordinated Claimant (or any Subordinated Representative thereof) contrary to the provisions of this Intercreditor Agreement or in excess of the amounts to which such Subordinated Claimant is entitled under Section 3.08 hereof shall be received for the benefit of the Senior Claimant, shall be segregated from other funds and property held by such Subordinated Claimant (or any Subordinated Representative therefor) and shall be forthwith paid over to the Facility Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be applied (in the case of cash) to or held as collateral (in the case of non-cash property or securities) for the payment or prepayment of the Senior Claims in accordance with the terms hereof.

(d)    Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, payments (or the proceeds thereof) (i) drawn under any Eligible Liquidity Facility, or (ii) deposited in the Repayment Account in respect of a Repayment under Section 3.09 hereof shall not be subordinated to the prior payment of any Senior Claimants in respect of any Senior Claims or subject to any other restrictions set forth in this Article VI and Article VII of the Security Agreement, and none of the Holders shall be obligated to pay over any payments from any such property to the Collateral Agent or any other creditor of any of the Grantors (as defined in the Security Agreement).

(e)    The Facility Agent is hereby authorized to demand specific performance of the provisions of this Article VI at any time when any Subordinated Claimant (or any Subordinated Representative thereof) shall have failed to comply with any of such provisions applicable to them.  The Subordinated Claimants (and each Subordinated Representative of any thereof) hereby irrevocably waive any defense based on the adequacy of a remedy at law that might be asserted as a bar to such remedy of specific performance.

- 102 -

(f)    In any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any Borrower, the Subordinated Claimants agree that the Senior Claimants shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Obligations (including all interest and expenses accruing after the commencement of a proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law, whether or not constituting an allowed claim in such proceeding(“Post-Petition Interest”)) before such Subordinated Claimant receives payment of any Obligations.

(g)    After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Subordinated Claimant shall, if the Facility Agent so requests, collect, enforce and receive payments on account of the Obligations as trustee for the Senior Claimants and deliver such payments to the Facility Agent on account of the Obligations (including all Post-Petition Interest), together with any necessary endorsements or other instruments of transfer, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of such Subordinated Claimant under the other provisions of this Indenture and the Related Documents.

 Section 6.02 Rights of Subrogation.  The Subordinated Claimants (and each Subordinated Representative of any thereof) agree that no payment or distribution to any Senior Claimant (or the Facility Agent therefor) pursuant to the provisions of this Intercreditor Agreement shall entitle any Subordinated Claimant (or any Subordinated Representative thereof) to exercise any rights of subrogation in respect thereof until all Obligations constituting Senior Claims with respect to such Person shall have been finally and indefeasibly paid in full.

 Section 6.03 Further Assurances of Subordinated Representatives. Each of the Subordinated Representatives shall, at the expense of the Borrower, at any time and from time to time promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that the Controlling Party may reasonably request, in order to effectuate the provisions of this Article VI.

- 103 -

 Section 6.07 Ranking of the Guarantee. The Guarantor’s Guarantee of the Loans (pursuant to Article VII) shall rank pari passu with its obligation to make payments on or otherwise perform in accordance with the terms of the Guarantor Loans.

ARTICLE VII

GUARANTEE

 Section 7.01 Guarantee.  The Guarantor hereby fully and unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of Loans, the Facility Agent on behalf of such Holder, each Holder of Class E Securities, each Service Provider, the Liquidity Facility Provider, any Hedge Provider and each other Secured Party (each, a “Guaranteed Party” and, collectively, the “Guaranteed Parties”), in each case, the due and punctual performance of all obligations of the Borrower to each Guaranteed Party under this Intercreditor Agreement and the Related Documents (the “Guaranteed Obligations”), all in accordance with this Intercreditor Agreement and the other Related Documents.  The liability of the Guarantor under this Guarantee is limited to the maximum amount that will result in the obligations of the Guarantor not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under Applicable Law.

The Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, filing of claims with a court in the event of merger or bankruptcy of the Borrower or any other ACS Ireland Group Member, any right to require a proceeding first against the Borrower or any other ACS Ireland Group Member, the benefit of discussion, protest or notice and all demands whatsoever (except as specified above), and covenants that this Article VII shall not be discharged as to any such Loan or the Class E Securities except by payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations.  The maturity of the Loans or the Class E Securities and related obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article IV for the purposes of this Article VII.  In the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article IV of this Intercreditor Agreement, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purpose of this Article VII.  In addition, without limiting the foregoing provisions, upon the effectiveness of an acceleration under Article IV of this Intercreditor Agreement, the Facility Agent shall be entitled to make a demand for payment on the Loans under the Guarantee provided for in this Article VII.

The Guarantor hereby waives any claim or other claim or other rights which it may now or hereafter acquire against the Borrower or any other ACS Ireland Group Member that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s obligations under this Intercreditor Agreement, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification, any right to participate in any claim

or remedy of a Guaranteed Party against the Borrower or any other ACS Ireland Group Member, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity, or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Borrower or any other ACS Ireland Group Member, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim or other rights, until all of the Guarantor’s obligations under this Intercreditor Agreement have been satisfied.  If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence and the Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to the Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for the benefit of, such Guaranteed Party, and shall forthwith be paid to such Guaranteed Party.  The Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the issuance of the Loans and that the waiver set forth in this paragraph is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

Any right which at any time the Guarantor has under the existing or future laws of Ireland and Bermuda to require that recourse be had to the assets of the Borrower or any other ACS Ireland Group Member before any claim is enforced against the Guarantor in respect of the obligations hereby assumed by the Guarantor, is hereby abandoned and waived and the Guarantor undertakes that if at any time any Guaranteed Party sues the Guarantor in respect of any such obligations and the Borrower or any other ACS Ireland Group Member is not sued also, the Guarantor shall not claim that the Borrower or any other ACS Ireland Group Member be made a party to the proceedings and the Guarantor agrees to be bound by this guarantee whether or not the Guarantor is made party to legal proceedings for the recovery of the amount due or owing to such Guaranteed Party as aforesaid by the Borrower and whether the formalities required by any law of Ireland whether existing or future in regard to the rights or obligations of sureties shall or shall not have been observed.

Any right which the Guarantor may have under the existing or future laws of Ireland and Bermuda to require that any liability under this Guarantee be divided or apportioned with any other person or reduced in any manner whatsoever is hereby abandoned and waived.

The guarantees given by the Guarantor to the Guaranteed Parties pursuant to this Section 7.01 are, for purposes of this Article VII, hereinafter referred to as the “Guarantee”.

 Section 7.02 Reinstatement.  The Guarantor hereby agrees that the guarantee provided for in Section 7.01 hereof shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time, payment, or any part thereof, of any obligations guaranteed or interest thereon is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by a Guaranteed Party to the Borrower upon the bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency of the Borrower or the Guarantor or otherwise.

 Section 7.03 Unconditional Nature of Guarantee.  The Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations under the Guarantee shall be irrevocable and unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or this Intercreditor Agreement or any other Related Document against the Borrower or any other ACS Ireland Group Member, the absence of any action to enforce the Borrower’s or any other ACS Ireland Group Member’s obligations under the Credit Agreement, this Intercreditor Agreement or any other Related Document, any waiver or consent by a Holder with respect to

- 105 -

any provisions thereof or any provisions of this Intercreditor Agreement and the Related Documents, any amendment to the terms under which the Loans are advanced, any release of collateral related to the Loans or the Borrower’s or any other ACS Ireland Group Member’s obligations under this Intercreditor Agreement or any other Related Document, the bankruptcy of the Borrower or any other ACS Ireland Group Member or any circumstance with might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor; provided, however, that the Guarantor shall be entitled to exercise any right that the Borrower could have exercised under this Intercreditor Agreement to cure any default in respect of its obligations under this Intercreditor Agreement or the Credit Agreement, if any, but only to the extent such right, if any, is provided to the Borrower under this Intercreditor Agreement or the Credit Agreement.

The Guarantor hereby waives each of the following to the fullest extent of the law: (i) all statutes of limitation as a defense to any action brought by any party against the Guarantor in connection with this Guarantee, (ii) any defense based upon (a) the lack of perfection or failure of priority of any security for the Guaranteed Obligations; (b) any act or omission of any Guaranteed Party that directly or indirectly results in the discharge or release of any Borrower or any other Person, or any of the obligations subject to this Guarantee or any security therefor; or (c) any other defense of the Borrower or any other Person with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, whether consensual or arising by operation of law or any bankruptcy, insolvency or debtor-relief proceeding, or from any other cause, (iii) any right (whether now or hereafter existing) to require any Guaranteed Party, as a condition to the enforcement of this Guarantee, to (a) accelerate the Borrower’s obligations, (b) give notice to the Guarantor of the terms, time and place of any public or private sale of any security for the Guaranteed Obligations; or (c) exhaust any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, (iv) any right to presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind, including, without limitation, notices of default and notices of acceptance of this Guarantee, (v) all suretyship defenses and rights of every nature otherwise available under New York law and the laws of any other jurisdiction, and (vi) all other rights and defenses, the assertion or exercise of which would in any way diminish the liability of the Guarantor hereunder.

ARTICLE VIII

MISCELLANEOUS

 Section 8.01 Right of Facility Agent to Perform.  If the Borrower for any reason fails to observe or punctually to perform any of its obligations to the Facility Agent, whether under this Intercreditor Agreement or any of the other Related Documents or otherwise, the Facility Agent shall have power (but shall have no obligation), on behalf of or in the name of the Borrower or otherwise, to perform such obligations and to take any steps which the Facility Agent may, in its absolute discretion, consider appropriate with a view to remedying, or mitigating the consequences of, such failure by the Borrower; provided that no exercise or failure to exercise this power by the Facility Agent shall in any way prejudice the Facility Agent’s other rights under this Intercreditor Agreement or any of the other Related Documents.

 Section 8.02 Waiver.  Any waiver by any party of any provision of this Intercreditor Agreement or any right, remedy or option hereunder shall only prevent and estop such party from thereafter enforcing such provision, right, remedy or option if

- 106 -

such waiver is given in writing and only as to the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which such waiver was given. The failure or refusal of any party hereto to insist in any one or more instances, or in a course of dealing, upon the strict performance of any of the terms or provisions of this Intercreditor Agreement by any party hereto or the partial exercise of any right, remedy or option hereunder shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of any such term or provision, but the same shall continue in full force and effect. No failure on the part of the Facility Agent to exercise, and no delay on its part in exercising, any right or remedy under this Intercreditor Agreement will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies provided in this Intercreditor Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

 Section 8.03 Severability.  In the event that any provision of this Intercreditor Agreement or the application thereof to any party hereto or to any circumstance or in any jurisdiction governing this Intercreditor Agreement shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute, regulation or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it is invalid or unenforceable and the remainder of this Intercreditor Agreement, and the application of any such invalid or unenforceable provision to the parties, jurisdictions or circumstances other than to whom or to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby nor shall the same affect the validity or enforceability of this Intercreditor Agreement.  The parties hereto further agree that the holding by any court of competent jurisdiction that any remedy pursued by the Facility Agent hereunder is unavailable or unenforceable shall not affect in any way the ability of the Facility Agent to pursue any other remedy available to it.

 Section 8.04 Restrictions on Exercise of Certain Rights.  (a) Each of the parties hereto and each Holder hereby agrees that it will not take any steps against the Borrower or the Guarantor seeking the liquidation, winding up, examination, insolvent reorganisation or bankruptcy of the Borrower or the Guarantor or seek an order for the appointment of a trustee, liquidator, Irish law examiner or other similar official in respect of all or part of their assets save that nothing in this Section 8.04 shall prevent or limit (x) the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties from (i) appointing a receiver or taking any action to appoint a receiver under any Security Document or at law or from exercising any rights ancillary thereto; or (ii) exercising its power of sale under any Security Document or at law; or (iii) making a claim, proving or otherwise participating in any examinership, liquidation or other bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings instituted by any Person (other than a Secured Party) against the Borrower or the Guarantor; or (y) subject to the limited recourse provision in (b) below, the Facility Agent or the Collateral Agent from making a claim and/or suing for the recovery of, or taking any other steps or proceedings for the purposes of recovering any of the obligations hereunder or any other debts or liabilities whatsoever owing to it by the Borrower or the Guarantor hereunder or under any other Related Documents.

After the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the obligations of the Borrower in respect of the Loans and the Class E Securities and any other claims of any Secured Party will be limited to the net proceeds of the disposal and/or realization of the Collateral by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents and thereafter to the extent that the net proceeds of such disposal and/or

- 107 -

realizations are insufficient to pay in full the claims of the Secured Parties then the Secured Parties shall have no further claims against the Borrower or the Guarantor in respect of such unpaid amount and any such claims shall be extinguished.

 Section 8.05 Notices.  All notices, demands, certificates, requests, directions, instructions and communications hereunder (“Notices”) shall be in writing and shall be effective (a) upon receipt when sent through the mails, registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, with such receipt to be effective the date of delivery indicated on the return receipt, or (b) one Business Day after delivery to an overnight courier, or (c) on the date personally delivered to an authorized officer of the party to which sent, or (d) on the date transmitted by legible telecopier transmission with a confirmation of receipt, in all cases addressed to the recipient as follows:

 Section 8.06 Assignments; Third Party Beneficiary.  This Intercreditor Agreement shall be a continuing obligation of the Borrower and shall (i) be binding upon the Borrower and its successors and assigns and (ii) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Facility Agent, and by its successors, transferees and assigns. The Borrower may not assign any of its obligations under this Intercreditor Agreement, or delegate any of its duties hereunder.  Each Hedge Provider and each provider of an Eligible Liquidity Facility shall be a third party beneficiary of this Intercreditor Agreement.

 Section 8.07 Currency Conversion.

(a)    If any amount is received or recovered by the Collateral Agent or the Facility Agent in respect of this Intercreditor Agreement or any part thereof (whether as a result of the enforcement of the security created under the Security Agreement or pursuant to this Intercreditor Agreement or any judgment or order of any court or in the liquidation or dissolution of the Borrower or by way of damages for any breach of any obligation to make any payment under or in respect of the Borrower’s obligations hereunder or any part thereof or otherwise) in a currency (the “Received Currency”) other than the currency in which such amount was expressed to be payable (the “Agreed Currency”), then the amount in the Received Currency actually received or recovered by the Facility Agent or the Collateral Agent shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, only constitute a discharge to the Borrower to the extent of the amount of the Agreed Currency which the Collateral Agent or the Facility Agent was or would have been able in accordance with its normal procedures to purchase on the date of actual receipt or recovery (or, if that is not practicable, on the next date on which it is so practicable), and, if the amount of the Agreed Currency which the Collateral Agent or Facility Agent is or would have been so able to purchase is less than the amount of the Agreed Currency which was originally payable by the Borrower, the Borrower shall pay to the Collateral Agent such amount as the Collateral Agent shall determine to be necessary to indemnify the Facility Agent and the Collateral Agent against any Loss sustained by it as a result (including the cost of making any such purchase and any premiums, commissions or other charges paid or Incurred in connection therewith) and so that such indemnity, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, (i) shall constitute a separate and independent obligation of the Borrower distinct from its obligation to discharge the amount which was originally payable by the Borrower and (ii) shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action and apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by the Collateral Agent or the Facility Agent and continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment, order, claim or proof for a liquidated amount in respect of the amount originally payable by the Borrower or any judgment or order and no proof or evidence of any actual loss shall be required.

(b)    For the purpose of or pending the discharge of any of the moneys and liabilities hereby secured either the Facility Agent or the Collateral Agent may convert any moneys received, recovered or realized by the Collateral Agent under this Intercreditor Agreement (including the proceeds of any previous conversion under this Section 8.07) from their existing currency of denomination into the currency of denomination (if different) of such moneys and liabilities and any conversion from one currency to another for the purposes of any

- 110 -

of the foregoing shall be made at the Facility Agent’s or the Collateral Agent’s then prevailing spot selling rate at its office by which such conversion is made.  If not otherwise required to be applied in the Received Currency, the Collateral Agent shall promptly convert any moneys in such Received Currency other than U.S. dollars into U.S. dollars.  Each previous reference in this section to a currency extends to funds of that currency and funds of one currency may be converted into different funds of the same currency.

 Section 8.08 Application to Court.  The Facility Agent may at any time after the service of a Default Notice apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for an order that the terms of this Intercreditor Agreement be carried into execution under the direction of such court and for the appointment of a Receiver of the Collateral or any part thereof and for any other order in relation to the administration of this Intercreditor Agreement as the Facility Agent shall deem fit and it may assent to or approve any application to any court of competent jurisdiction made at the instigation of any of the Holders and shall be indemnified by the Borrower against all costs, charges and expenses Incurred by it in relation to any such application or proceedings.

 Section 8.09 Governing Law.  THIS INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT SHALL IN ALL RESPECTS BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE.

 Section 8.10 Jurisdiction.

(a)    Each of the parties hereto agrees that the United States federal and New York State courts located in The City of New York shall have jurisdiction to hear and determine any suit, action or proceeding, and to settle any disputes, which may arise out of or in connection with this Intercreditor Agreement and, for such purposes, submits to the jurisdiction of such courts.  Each of the parties hereto waives any objection which it might now or hereafter have to the United States federal or New York State courts located in The City of New York being nominated as the forum to hear and determine any suit, action or proceeding, and to settle any disputes, which may arise out of or in connection with this Intercreditor Agreement and agrees not to claim that any such court is not a convenient or appropriate forum.  Each of the parties hereto (except for the Facility Agent and the Liquidity Facility Provider) agrees that the process by which any suit, action or proceeding is begun may be served on it by being delivered in connection with any suit, action or proceeding in The City of New York to Corporation Service Company, with an office on the date hereof at 1133 Avenue of the Americas, Xxxxx 0000, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 and each of the parties hereby appoints Corporation Service Company, its designee, appointee and agent to receive, accept and acknowledge for and on its behalf such service of legal process, with the exception of the Facility Agent, the Liquidity Facility Provider, who hereby consents to receive any such service of process directly at the address set forth in Section 8.05 herein.

(b)    The submission to the jurisdiction of the courts referred to in Section 8.10(a) hereof shall not (and shall not be construed so as to) limit the right of the Facility Agent to take proceedings against the Borrower in any other court of competent jurisdiction nor shall the taking of proceedings in any one or more jurisdictions preclude the taking of proceedings in any other jurisdiction, whether concurrently or not.

- 111 -

(c)    Each of the parties hereto hereby consents generally in respect of any legal action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Intercreditor Agreement to the giving of any relief or the issue of any process in connection with such action or proceeding, including the making, enforcement or execution against any property whatsoever (irrespective of its use or intended use) of any order or judgment which may be made or given in such action or proceeding.

 Section 8.11 Integration. This Intercreditor Agreement, together with the Related Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Commitment Letter (to the extent provided therein) and the Fee Letter shall not be superseded, but in the case of any conflict between any Related Document and any such letter, such Related Document shall govern.  In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Intercreditor Agreement and those of any other Related Document, the Commitment Letter, the provisions of this Intercreditor Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Collateral Agent or the Facility Agent or the Holders in any other Related Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Intercreditor Agreement.  Each Related Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.

 Section 8.12 Waiver of Jury Trial.  EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE GUARANTOR, THE COLLATERAL AGENT, THE FACILITY AGENT, THE LIQUIDITY FACILITY PROVIDER AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY OF THE RELATED DOCUMENTS, THE LOANS OR THE ACTIONS OF ANY FACILITY AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT, THE LIQUIDITY FACILITY PROVIDER, THE BORROWER, THE GUARANTOR, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER  IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF.

 Section 8.13 Counterparts.  This Intercreditor Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts by the parties hereto, and each such counterpart shall be considered an original and all such counterparts shall constitute one and the same instrument.

 Section 8.14 Table of Contents, Headings, Etc.  The Table of Contents and headings of the Articles and Sections of this Intercreditor Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part hereof and shall in no way modify or restrict any of the terms and provisions hereof.

 Section 8.16 Rights of the Operating Bank.

(a)    The Operating Bank shall be afforded all of the rights, protections, immunities and indemnities afforded to the Operating Bank pursuant to the terms of the Security Agreement as if such rights, protections, immunities and indemnities were set forth herein.
