DELTA AIR LINES, INC. (together with its successors and permitted assigns, “Company”)
hereby promises to pay to U.S. BANK TRUST NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as Subordination Agent under the
Intercreditor Agreement, or the registered assignee thereof, the principal amount of FIVE MILLION
SIX HUNDRED AND EIGHTY-SIX THOUSAND Dollars ($5,686,000) on November 23, 2015 and to pay interest
in arrears on each Payment Date at the Debt Rate on the principal amount remaining unpaid from time
to time (calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days comprised of twelve 30-day months) from the
date hereof, or from the most recent date to which interest hereon has been paid or duly provided
for, until paid in full. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if any date on
which a payment under this Equipment Note becomes due and payable is not a Business Day,
then such payment shall not be made on such scheduled date but shall be made on the
next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such scheduled date, and if
payment is made on such next succeeding Business Day, no interest shall accrue on the amount of
such payment from and after such scheduled date.
For purposes hereof, the term “Indenture” means the Indenture and Security Agreement (N308DE),
dated as of December 21, 2010, between Company and U.S. Bank Trust National Association, as Loan
Trustee (“Loan Trustee”), as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified
from time to time in accordance with its terms. All capitalized terms used in this Equipment Note
and not defined herein, unless the context otherwise requires, shall have the respective meanings
set forth or incorporated by reference, and shall be construed and interpreted in the manner
described, in the Indenture.
This Equipment Note shall bear interest, payable on demand, at the Past Due Rate (and not the
Debt Rate) (calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days comprised of twelve 30-day months) on any
principal amount and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) Make-Whole Amount, if any,
interest, and any other amounts payable hereunder not paid when due for any period during which the
same is overdue, in each case for the period the same is overdue. Amounts shall be overdue if not
paid in the manner provided herein or in the Indenture when due (whether at stated maturity, by
acceleration or otherwise).
There shall be maintained an Equipment Note Register for the purpose of registering transfers
and exchanges of Equipment Notes at the Corporate Trust Office of Loan Trustee, or at the office of
any successor trustee, in the manner provided in Section 2.07 of the Indenture.
The principal amount and interest and other amounts due hereunder shall be payable in Dollars
in immediately available funds at the Corporate Trust Office of Loan Trustee, or as otherwise
provided in the Indenture. Company shall not have any responsibility for the distribution of any
such payment to Noteholder of this Equipment Note. Each such payment shall be made on the date
such payment is due and without any presentment or surrender of this Equipment Note, except that in
the case of any final payment with respect to this Equipment Note, the Equipment Note shall be
surrendered to Loan Trustee for cancellation.
The holder hereof, by its acceptance of this Equipment Note, agrees that, except as provided
in the Indenture, including the subordination provisions referred to below,
each payment of an installment of principal amount, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and
2
interest
received by it hereunder shall be applied: first, to the payment of accrued interest on
this Equipment Note (as well as any interest on (i) any overdue principal amount, and
(ii) to the extent permitted by law, any overdue Make-Whole Amount, if any, any overdue
interest and any other overdue amounts hereunder) to the date of such payment; second, to
the payment of Make-Whole Amount, if any, with respect to this Equipment Note; third, to
the payment of the principal amount of this Equipment Note (or portion thereof) then due hereunder,
if any; and fourth, the balance, if any, remaining thereafter to the payment of
installments of the principal amount of this Equipment Note (or portion thereof) remaining unpaid
in the inverse order of their maturity.
