10. FURTHER PROVISIONS

10.1 Side Agreement. Seller acknowledges that Purchaser and Lessee have entered into the Side Agreement. The Purchaser acknowledges that Seller is not a party to the Side Agreement and, accordingly, has not reviewed the terms of such agreement, has no rights or obligations thereunder and is not bound by the terms thereof. Purchaser agrees that it shall give Seller prompt notice of any breach or failure of Lessee to perform its obligations under the terms of the Side Agreement that may give rise to Purchaser’s right to terminate the sale hereunder and request a return of the Purchaser Deposits pursuant to Clause 5.3. It is understood that the Side Agreement shall not impose upon the Lessee and/or the Aircraft any greater technical conditions than those reflected at the time of Purchaser’s execution of the Technical Acceptance Certificate (subject, however, to Clause 3.5 above) and that Lessee’s principal responsibilities after the Technical Acceptance Date shall be executing the Ferry Flight and providing certain post-title-transfer paperwork after the Ferry Flight is completed. Lessee’s failure to provide such documentation shall give rise to a cause of action by Purchaser against Lessee under the Side Agreement, but shall not give rise to a refund or return of the Deposits. The Lessee Contribution to Aircraft Condition payments shall not, except to the extent otherwise agreed between Lessor and Lessee in writing, be refundable in any circumstances and shall, should the sale of the Aircraft contemplated herein not be consummated, be applied to amounts owing by Lessee to Seller in connection with termination of the Lease as set forth in the Aircraft Lease Termination Agreement.

10.2 Benefit of Agreement: Purchaser shall not assign or transfer all or any of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Seller, except that Purchaser may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to its wholly-owned subsidiary, Contrail Aviation Leasing, LLC, provided that Purchaser and such assignee shall be jointly and severally Iiable for Purchaser’s obligations hereunder the event of such assignment.

10.3 Counterparts: This Agreement may be executed in any number of separate counterparts and each counterpart shall when executed and delivered be an original document but all counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by fax or email will be deemed as effective as delivery of an originally executed version. Accordingly, a PDF copy and facsimile signatures shall be treated as original signatures for all purposes with respect to all Transaction Documents. Any party delivering an executed version of this Agreement by fax or email shall, upon the request of the other party, also deliver an originally executed counterpart but the failure to do so will not affect the validity or effectiveness of this Agreement.

- 8 -

10.4 Waivers and Variation: Rights of a party, arising under this Agreement or the general law, shall not be waived or varied unless done so expressly in writing and only then in that specific case, on that specific occasion and on any terms specified.
