As soon as practicable, and in any event no later than the Thursday of each week (or if such a date is not a Business Day, the next Business Day), Carrier shall furnish to Bank, together with such supporting financial information as Bank may require, a compliance certificate in the

form attached hereto as Attachment 2 (such certificate and supporting financial information being the “Weekly Compliance Certificate”) signed by the chief financial officer of Carrier and demonstrating in reasonable detail (i) the Cash Reserves and the total and unrestricted cash balances each as of Saturday of the preceding week, (ii) the ASMs for the preceding calendar week, and (iii) the RPMs for the preceding calendar week.
3. Exposure Protection
Subject to Section 4 of this Schedule 2, Bank may retain and hold all funds paid to it by a Card Association on account of Sales Slips submitted by Carrier to Bank as Reserved Funds until the Deposit equals the amount required hereunder, as determined in accordance with Sections 4 and 8 of this Schedule 2. Throughout the term of this Agreement, the Deposit amount shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4 of this Schedule 2. Bank will hold the Deposit as security for the due and punctual payment of and performance by Carrier of all its obligations under this Agreement, whether now existing or hereafter arising (the “Obligations”). Carrier hereby grants to Bank a continuing first security interest in its interest (if any) in the Deposit and in all amounts added to the Deposit at any time and in all monies, securities, instruments purchased therewith, all interest, profits and/or dividends accruing thereon and proceeds thereof; to secure payment of all Obligations of Carrier to Bank, whether now existing or hereinafter arising. Carrier hereby acknowledges that notwithstanding the foregoing grant of a security interest, Reserved Funds represent only a future right to payment owed to Carrier hereunder, payment of which is subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and do not constitute funds of Carrier.
Carrier further acknowledges that Bank disputes the existence of any interest of Carrier in rights to payment from Cardholders or Card issuers arising out of the Sales Slips described below and further acknowledges that to the extent that Carrier may have an interest therein, such right is subordinate to the interest of Bank. To the extent of Carrier’s interest therein, if any, Carrier hereby grants to Bank a first priority security interest in all Sales Slips initiated in the United States bearing a Transaction Date on or prior to the date of termination of this Agreement and all rights to payment (including, without limitation, actual collections held by Bank on account of Sales Slips), from Cardholders or Card issuers for United States initiated Travel Costs incurred on a Transaction Date on or prior to the date of termination of this Agreement and paid for by Cards, in the amount of and as a result of such Sales Slips, in accordance with this Agreement, and in any or all proceeds thereof; whether now existing or hereafter created or arising, to secure payment of the Obligations of Carrier to Bank, whether now in existence or hereafter arising. Such security interest is in addition to Bank’s security interest in the Deposit. Carrier further agrees that during the term of this Agreement, Carrier shall not grant, or attempt to grant, to any other party or suffer to exist in favor of any other party any interest in the Deposit, in any Sales Slips and rights to payment from Cardholders or Card issuers or in any proceeds thereof.
Carrier will do all acts and things, and will execute, endorse, deliver, file or record all instruments and agreements (including pledges, assignments, security agreements, financing statements, continuation statements, etc.) reasonably requested by Bank, in form reasonably satisfactory to Bank, to establish, perfect, maintain and continue the perfection and priority of the
A-6
security interest of Bank in Carrier’s interest (if any) in the Deposit, all Sales Slips and rights to payment from Cardholders or Card issuers and all proceeds of the foregoing, and Carrier will pay the reasonable costs and expenses of all filings and recordings, including taxes thereon and all searches reasonably necessary or deemed necessary by Bank, to establish and determine the validity and priority of such security interest of Bank. Carrier’s address as stated in the preamble to the Agreement is Carrier’s chief executive office. Carrier hereby irrevocably appoints Bank (and all Persons, officers, employees or agents designated by Bank), its agent and attorney-in-fact to do all such acts and things contemplated by this paragraph in the name of Carrier. Without limiting the foregoing, Carrier hereby authorizes Bank to file one or more financing statements or continuation statements in respect hereof; and amendments thereto, relating to any part of the collateral described herein without the signature of Carrier. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or of a financing statement shall be sufficient as a financing statement and may be filed in lieu of the original in any or all jurisdictions which accept such reproductions.
4. Adjustments to Deposit
Bank will use the Methodology described in Section 8 of this Schedule 2 (the “Methodology”) to calculate Gross Exposure (as defined in Section 8 of this Schedule 2) on a daily, weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly basis, as the Bank elects in its sole discretion. Carrier acknowledges that Bank has explained to it and it understands Bank’s Methodology for determining Gross Exposure and the amount of the Deposit and hereby agrees to be bound by such Methodology and the determinations made by Bank as a result thereof. Carrier understands that Gross Exposure includes, among other things, the value of Travel Costs for goods or services sold to Cardholders who used their Cards to purchase such goods or services with respect to which Carrier has not yet provided such goods or services. Bank and Carrier may change the Methodology by mutual agreement.
Prior to the occurrence of any Triggering Event, the amount of the Deposit shall not be greater than [REDACTED] of Gross Exposure. From and after the occurrence of a Triggering Event, the amount of the Deposit shall be increased or decreased, as appropriate, based on the Methodology, to be in the following amount for the specified periods of time (such amount for the applicable date, the “Required Amount”)
(a) During any period in which (i) a First Stage Triggering Event has occurred and is continuing and (ii) no Second Stage Triggering Event has occurred and is continuing, the Deposit shall at all times be equal to the amount that is [REDACTED] of Gross Exposure.
(b) During any period in which a Second Stage Triggering Event has occurred and is continuing, the Deposit shall at all times be equal to the amount that is [REDACTED] of Gross Exposure.
(c) Following any period in which Carrier has effected a Cure of Second Stage Triggering Event and so long as no other Triggering Event has occurred, the Deposit shall be reduced to an amount equal to the amount that is [REDACTED] of Gross Exposure.
A-7
(d) Following any period in which Carrier has effected a Cure of First Stage Triggering Event and so long as no other Triggering Event has occurred, the Deposit shall be reduced to an amount not greater than [REDACTED] of Gross Exposure.
Upon the occurrence of a Triggering Event, Carrier immediately, upon Bank’s written demand therefor, shall remit to Bank by wire transfer an amount sufficient to increase the amount of the Deposit to the Required Amount. Without limiting the foregoing, any increases to the Deposit required to be made under this Agreement may be made, at Bank’s sole discretion, by Bank immediately withholding on a daily basis as Reserved Funds an amount up to [REDACTED] of amounts otherwise payable to Carrier under the Agreement until the Deposit is at least equal to the Required Amount
Upon Carrier’s Cure of First Stage Triggering Event, and no later than the fifth (5th) Business Day after Bank’s receipt of the Monthly Compliance Certificate that demonstrates such cure, Bank will remit to the Carrier an amount that will reduce the amount of the Deposit to an amount not greater than [REDACTED] of Gross Exposure. Upon Carrier’s Cure of Second Stage Triggering Event that does not qualify as a Cure of First Stage Triggering Event, and no later than the [REDACTED] Business Day after Bank’s receipt of the applicable Weekly and Monthly Compliance Certificates that demonstrate such cure, Bank will remit to the Carrier an amount that will reduce the amount of the Deposit to an amount equal to [REDACTED of Gross Exposure.
Other than as provided in the immediately preceding paragraph, Bank shall remit to the Carrier by the second (2nd) Business Day after any determination is made by Bank that Carrier is entitled to a payment hereunder, any amount necessary to reduce the Deposit to the Required Amount. Bank may reduce the amount due Carrier under this Section 4 by the amount of any increase required to be made to the Deposit resulting from Bank’s Methodology applied prior to the date the funds are to be remitted to the Carrier hereunder.
The amount of the Deposit to be maintained hereunder may be reduced in accordance with Section 10 of this Schedule 2 pursuant to which Bank, in its sole discretion, may accept an irrevocable standby letter of credit in lieu of all or a portion of the required Deposit.
5. Control and Nature of Deposit
Carrier acknowledges that any funds remitted to Bank by Carrier and funds paid to Bank by Card Associations and held by Bank as the Deposit may be commingled with other funds of Bank and further acknowledges that all such funds, and any investment of funds shall be in the name and control of Bank, and Carrier shall have no interest in any securities, instruments or other contracts or any interest, dividends or other earnings accruing thereon or in connection therewith. It is the understanding of the parties that the sole obligation of Bank with respect to the Deposit shall be the obligation to pay to Carrier amounts equal to the amount attributable to Travel Costs with respect to which Carrier has provided goods or services and that such obligation on the part of Bank is at all times subject to the terms of this Agreement. To the extent permitted by applicable law or regulation, all amounts held as the Deposit will be invested in the name of Bank so as to result in a yield equal to the monthly average of the H-15 index for
A-8
overnight federal funds transactions, or any other equivalent investment approved by the Bank. The amount so earned shall be credited to the Deposit.
6. Right of Offset
At any time that an amount is due Bank from Carrier and Bank does not obtain payment of such amount due as provided in this Agreement, Bank shall have the right to apply or set off any amounts otherwise owed by Bank to Carrier hereunder, including, without limitation, any amounts attributable to the Deposit, to the amount owed by Carrier.
7. Retention of Deposit
During the period not to exceed [REDACTED] months from the earlier of termination of this Agreement or, if applicable, from the date upon which Carrier permanently ceases flight operations, Bank shall have no obligation to reduce the Deposit amount to an amount that is less than Gross Exposure and may retain the Deposit in an amount equal to Gross Exposure until such time as the Bank determines that Carrier has no further Obligations or potential Obligations to Bank under this Agreement. In the event that any cessation of flight operations by Carrier is temporary, Bank, at its option, may establish and maintain separate flight calendars in the determination of Gross Exposure. A flight calendar may be established to determine Gross Exposure arising from Travel Costs purchased or paid by a customer of Carrier through use of a Card with a Transaction Date for such purchase or payment that is prior to the commencement of the temporary cessation (“Pre-Cessation Travel Costs”). An additional flight calendar may be established to determine Gross Exposure arising from Travel Costs purchased or paid by a customer of Carrier through use of a Card with a Transaction Date for such purchase or payment that is on or after the date of the commencement of the temporary cessation. In the event of temporary cessation of flight operations by Carrier, Bank will not be obligated to make any payments to Carrier on account of Sales Slips that were or are submitted to it by Carrier with respect to Pre-Cessation Travel Costs for a period of [REDACTED] months after the commencement of such temporary cessation.
8. Methodology
“Gross Exposure” shall be calculated by the Bank on a daily basis as follows:
(a) [REDACTED]
(b) [REDACTED]
A-9
(c) [REDACTED]
(d) [REDACTED]
(e) [REDACTED]
(f) [REDACTED]
(g) [REDACTED]
9. Standby Letter of Credit
The amount of the Deposit which Bank may maintain pursuant to this Schedule 2 shall be decreased by the amount remaining to be drawn upon any valid and outstanding irrevocable standby letter of credit for the benefit of and expressly accepted by Bank, in its sole discretion, in lieu of maintaining the amount of the Deposit in the Required Amount under Section 4 of this Schedule 2. Any such letter of credit shall be in form and substance acceptable to Bank and issued by a financial institution acceptable to Bank, as determined by Bank in its sole discretion. The sum of the amount remaining to be drawn upon any valid and outstanding standby letter of credit and the amount of the Deposit maintained hereunder (“Aggregate Coverage”) shall at all
A-10
times be no less than the Required Amount and Bank may withhold from payment to Carrier Reserved Funds in accordance with Section 4 of Schedule 2 to the extent necessary to cause Aggregate Coverage to be not less than the Required Amount. At such time as the Bank may no longer draw on the letter of credit, Bank may require that the Deposit equal the Required Amount.
Upon the occurrence of any event that gives rise to Bank’s right under this Agreement (i) to make demand on Carrier for payment to Bank, (ii) to apply amounts represented by the Deposit to obligations of Carrier under the Agreement or (iii) otherwise to retain and not pay to Carrier amounts paid to Bank by MasterCard International or the Visa System on account of Sales Slips submitted to Bank by Carrier, then Bank, at its option, may draw on any standby letter of credit issued for its benefit with respect to the Agreement without first taking any of the actions described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above.
In addition to Bank’s rights as set forth above, Bank, at its option, may draw (in one or more draws) up to the lesser of (i) the amount equal to [REDACTED] of Gross Exposure less the amount of the Deposit on the date of any such draw or (ii) the full amount remaining undrawn on a standby letter of credit upon the occurrence of any one or more of the following events or as otherwise provided below: (a) commencement whether by or against Carrier, of any bankruptcy, reorganization, debt arrangement or other proceeding under any bankruptcy, reorganization, debt arrangement or other proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency law; (b) receipt by Bank of notification from the issuer of the standby letter of credit that such issuer has elected not to renew the standby letter of credit; (c) notification of termination of the Agreement by either party; or (d) a substantial number of the scheduled flights of Carrier fail to operate on any particular day. In addition, Bank may draw upon the standby letter of credit pursuant to any other condition for draw provided in the standby letter of credit, and, in any event, on or after the thirtieth day prior to expiration of the standby letter of credit. No failure to draw, or delay in making a draw, on the standby letter of credit shall impair Bank’s right to draw thereon at a later time.
Carrier acknowledges that it has no interest in any proceeds of any draw on any letter of credit issued for the benefit of Bank and that upon any draw on any letter of credit, Bank shall be entitled to hold the proceeds thereof for payment of the Obligations under the Agreement and apply such proceeds in payment thereof as and when Bank deems appropriate. Bank shall have no obligation to remit to any person or entity any excess proceeds of any draw on the letter of credit until expiration of the period specified in Section 7 of this Schedule 2. In the event of any dispute between Carrier and the issuer of such letter of credit or any subrogee thereof, or any other person or entity with respect to entitlement to any proceeds of the letter of credit, Bank may retain all such proceeds until final resolution of such dispute by a court of competent jurisdiction, subject to Bank’s right to retain and apply proceeds in payment of the Obligations. In the event that Bank draws on the letter of credit and holds the proceeds thereof at a time when Carrier is conducting normal flight operations, Bank, at its option, may include such proceeds in its calculation of coverage for Gross Exposure and make remittances to Carrier in accordance with Section 4 of this Schedule 2 as if the proceeds were part of the Deposit.
