The substantive consolidation of the Consolidated Debtors will eliminate any guarantees by any Consolidated Debtor of the primary obligation of another Consolidated Debtor; provided, however, each holder of an Allowed Class 1D Claim who also holds a guaranty from one or more Consolidated Debtors with respect to such claim will receive, in addition to the distribution prescribed in the immediately preceding paragraph, as compensation for the impact of the consolidation, its share of the New Common Stock For Distribution to Creditors With a Guaranty, determined by multiplying the number of shares of New Common Stock For Distribution to Creditors With a Guaranty by the Allocation Fraction for such holder. If a primary obligation of Northwest Airlines was guaranteed by more than one of the other Consolidated Debtors, the holder will be treated as if it had only a single guaranty.

 

To the extent that a General Unsecured Claim against the Consolidated Debtors is a Subordinated Claim, the holder will not receive a distribution of either New Common Stock For Distributions to Creditors or New Common Stock For Distribution Pursuant to Rights Offering, unless and until each holder of an Allowed Claim in 1D that possesses a senior right to payment receives New Common Stock For Distributions to Creditors of a value equal to its Allowed Claim amount, plus any applicable interest thereon.

 

Pursuant to the Convenience Class Election, a holder of a General Unsecured Claim of $20,000 or more may elect to have such Claim treated as a Convenience Class Claim by making the Convenience Class Election on the Ballot provided for voting on the Plan within the time fixed by the Bankruptcy Court for completing and returning such Ballot.

As a result of the consolidation, any guaranty by one or more Consolidated Debtors of the obligations of another Consolidated Debtor will be eliminated, but, as prescribed above in Section 4, each

 

20



 

holder of an Allowed Unsecured Claim against a Consolidated Debtor who also has a guaranty from another Consolidated Debtor shall be compensated for the elimination of the guaranty, such that the substantive consolidation will not result in unfair treatment to creditors who relied on guarantees.

 

Substantive consolidation shall not affect: (a) the legal and organizationalstructure of the Consolidated Debtors; (b) pre and post-Commencement Date guarantees, liens, and securityinterests that are required to be maintained (i) pursuant to any Postpetition Aircraft Purchase and Lease Obligation, (ii) under the Bankruptcy Code or in connection with contracts or leases that were entered into during the Chapter 11 Cases or executory contracts or unexpired leases that have been or will be assumed, or (iii) pursuant to the Plan; (c) Intercompany Claims and Equity Interests between and among the Consolidated Debtors; and (d) distributions from any insurance policies or proceeds of such policies.

 

5.2        Exit Financing.

 

On the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall either convert the DIP Credit and Exit Facility Agreement into the Exit Facility or elect an alternative Exit Facility; provided, however, that the Debtors will consult with the Creditors Committee in advance of a decision to elect an alternative to the DIP Credit and Exit Facility Agreement. In the event the Debtors elect an alternative Exit Facility, confirmation of the Plan shall constitute an approval of the transactions contemplated thereby and of all actions to be taken, undertakings to be made and obligations to be incurred by the Reorganized Debtors in connection therewith, including the continued pledging of Pacific Routes as collateral, and the payment of all interest, principal amortization, fees, indemnities and expenses provided for therein.

Reorganized NWA Corp. shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the New Common Stock to be listed on a national securities exchange or a qualifying interdealer quotation system.

 

5.6        Restrictions on the Transfer of New Common Stock to Protect NOLs.

 

To reduce the risk of adverse federal income tax consequences after the Effective Date resulting from an ownership change (as defined in section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code), the Amended Certificate of Incorporation will restrict the transfer of the New Common Stock without the consent of the Board for 2 years after the Effective Date, subject to extension for up to 3 additional years if the Board of Directors of Reorganized NWA Corp. determines in its reasonable discretion that such restrictions are necessary to preserve the value of the Debtors’ NOLs. These restrictions generally will provide that any attempted transfer of New Common Stock prior to the expiration of the term of the transfer restrictions will be prohibited and void if such transfer would cause the transferee’s ownership interest in Reorganized NWA Corp., as determined for the purposes of section 382 of the Internal

 

21



 

Revenue Code, to increase to 4.75% or above, including an increase in a transferee’s ownership interest from 4.75% or above to a greater ownership interest, except as may be otherwise agreed to by the Board of Directors of Reorganized NWA Corp. or required by law with respect to certain qualified plans. Absent a contrary decision by the Debtors, in consultation with the Creditors Committee, the Amended Certificate of Incorporation will also contain similar provisions restricting the ability of persons who are 5% shareholders for the purposes of section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code to dispose of their shares without the consent of the Board of Directors of Reorganized NWA Corp. during the term of the transfer restrictions. The transfer restrictions will not apply to certain transactions approved by the Board of Directors of Reorganized NWA Corp., including, but not limited to, a merger or consolidation, in which all holders of New Common Stock receive, or are offered the same opportunity to receive, cash or other consideration for all such New Common Stock, and upon the consummation of which the acquirer will own at least a majority of the outstanding shares of New Common Stock.

 

5.7        Management Equity Plan.

 

The Debtors shall adopt the Management Equity Plan. The solicitation of votes on the Plan shall be deemed a solicitation of the holders of New Common Stock for approval of the Management Equity Plan. Entry of the order confirming the Plan shall constitute such approval, and the order confirming the Plan shall so provide.

 

5.8        Cancellation of Existing Securities and Agreements.

 

Except for purposes of evidencing a right to distribution under the Plan or as otherwise provided hereunder, on the Effective Date, all the agreements and other documents evidencing any Claims or rights of any holder of a Claim against the Debtors, including all indentures and notes evidencing such Claims and any options or warrants to purchase Equity Interests or any other capital stock of the Debtors, shall be canceled; provided, however, that the Indentures shall continue in effect solely for the purposes of allowing the Indenture Trustee to make any distributions on account of holders of Claims in those classes pursuant to the Plan and to perform such other necessary administrative functions with respect thereto.

 

5.9        Indenture Trustee Fees.

 

The Debtors shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of the Indenture Trustees in Cash on the Effective Date.

22



 

5.12        Continued Corporate Existence and Vesting of Assets in the Reorganized Debtors.

 

Except as provided herein, each Debtor will, as a Reorganized Debtor, continue to exist after the Effective Date as a separate corporate entity, with all the powers of a corporation under applicable law and without prejudice to any right to alter or terminate such existence (whether by merger, dissolution or otherwise) under applicable state law.

 

5.13        Restructuring Transactions.

 

On the Effective Date, but subsequent to the cancellation and discharge of all Claims, (i) Holdings will merge into NWA Inc., with NWA Inc. being the surviving entity, and (ii) thereafter, NWA Inc. will merge into Northwest Airlines, with Northwest Airlines being the surviving entity.

 

In addition to the Downstream Mergers, on or as of the Effective Date or as soon thereafter as practicable, within the discretion of the Debtors, and without further motion to or order of the Bankruptcy Court, the Debtors may, notwithstanding any other transactions described in this Section 5.13, (i) merge, dissolve, transfer assets, or otherwise consolidate any of the Debtors in furtherance of the Plan or (ii) engage in any other transaction in furtherance of the Plan. Any such transaction may be effected on or subsequent to the Effective Date without any further action by the stockholders or directors of any of the Debtors, or the Reorganized Debtors.

 

5.14     Certificate of Incorporation.

 

Reorganized NWA Corp. shall file the Amended Certificate of Incorporation and an amended certificate of incorporation for each of the other Reorganized Debtors that are corporations, with the appropriate office of each Reorganized Debtor’s state of incorporation on the Effective Date. The Amended Certificate of Incorporation and the certificates of incorporation for each of the Reorganized Debtors that are corporations shall prohibit the issuance of nonvoting equity securities, subject to further amendment of such certificates of incorporation as permitted by applicable law. The Amended Bylaws shall be deemed adopted by the board of directors of Reorganized NWA Corp. as of the Effective Date. All partnership and limited liability company agreements to which any of the Debtors are parties shall be treated in accordance with Section 8.1 hereof.

 

SECTION 6.                 DISTRIBUTIONS

 

6.1        Distribution Record Date.

 

As of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date, the various transfer registries for each of the Classes of Claims or Equity Interests as maintained by the Debtors, or their respective agents, shall be deemed closed and there shall be no further changes in the recordholders of any of the Claims or Equity Interests. The Debtors shall have no obligation to recognize any transfer of any Claims or Equity Interest occurring on or after the Distribution Record Date. The Debtors shall be entitled to recognize and deal for all purposes hereunder only with those recordholders stated in the transfer ledgers as of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date, to the extent applicable. If a Claim, other than one based on a publicly traded note, bond, or debenture, as set forth in Bankruptcy Rule 3001(e), is transferred twenty (20) or fewer days before the Distribution Record Date, the Distribution Agent shall make distributions to the transferee only if the transfer form, duly filed with the Bankruptcy Court prior to the Distribution Record Date, contains an unconditional and explicit certification and waiver of any objection to the transfer by the transferor.

 

23



 

6.2        Date of Distributions.

 

Except as otherwise provided herein, any distributions and deliveries to be made hereunder shall be made on the Effective Date or as soon thereafter as is practicable. In the event that any payment or act under the Plan is required to be made or performed on a date that is not a Business Day, then the making of such payment or the performance of such act may be completed on or as soon as reasonably practicable after the next succeeding Business Day, but shall be deemed to have been completed as of the required date.

 

6.3        Postpetition Interest on Claims.

 

Unless expressly provided in the Plan, the Confirmation Order or any contract, instrument, release, settlement or other agreement entered into in connection with the Plan, or required by applicable bankruptcy law (including the fair and equitable rule), postpetition interest shall not accrue on or after the Commencement Date on account of any Claim.

 

6.4        Initial Distributions.

 

On the Effective Date, the Disbursing Agent will distribute to the applicable agent and/or recordholder for the individual holders of the applicable Allowed Claims the New Common Stock For Distribution to Creditors allocable to Class 1D and the New Common Stock For Distribution Pursuant to Rights Offering purchased pursuant to the exercise of Subscription Rights. For the purpose of calculating the amount of New Common Stock For Distribution to Creditors to be initially distributed to holders of Allowed Claims in Class 1D all Disputed Claims (excluding Subordinated Claims) in such class will be treated as though such Claims will be Allowed Claims in the amounts asserted, or as estimated by the Bankruptcy Court, as applicable.

 

If, prior to a Periodic Distribution Date, a Disputed Claim is allowed as provided for under the Plan in an amount that is less than the amount utilized by the Disbursing Agent, the excess New Common Stock for Distribution to Creditors that was reserved by the Disbursing Agent on account of such Claim will be distributed to holders of Allowed Class 1D Claims on a Pro Rata basis, on a subsequent Periodic Distribution Date as described in Section 6.5 of the Plan.

 

6.5        Subsequent Distributions.

 

On the applicable Periodic Distribution Date, the Disbursing Agent will distribute to the applicable agent and/or recordholder for the individual holders of the applicable Allowed Claims, the New Common Stock For Distribution to Creditors allocable to Class 1D, until such time as all Disputed Claims have been resolved; provided, however, if the initial Effective Date distribution falls within the first 45 days of a quarter, then the first post-Effective Date Periodic Distribution Date will be on the first Business Day following the close of such quarter. On an applicable Periodic Distribution Date, as determined by the Debtors, a holder of an Allowed Claim that ceased being a Disputed Claim subsequent to the Effective Date will receive a Catch-up Distribution. The Disbursing Agent may, in its sole discretion, establish a record date prior to each Periodic Distribution Date, such that only Claims Allowed as of the record date will participate in the distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Debtors reserve the right, to the extent they determine a distribution on any Periodic Distribution Date is uneconomical or unfeasible, or is otherwise unadvisable, to postpone a quarterly distribution until the next appropriate Periodic Distribution Date.

6.6        Distribution Reserve.

 

For the purpose of calculating the Distribution Reserve, all Disputed Claims (excluding Subordinated Claims) in Class 1D will be treated as though such Claims will be Allowed Claims in the amounts asserted, or as estimated by the Bankruptcy Court, as applicable. The Disbursing Agent also shall place in the Distribution Reserve any dividends, payments, or other distributions made on account of, as well as any obligations arising from, the property initially withheld in the Distribution Reserve, to the extent that such property continues to be withheld in the Distribution Reserve at the time such distributions are made or such obligations arise. The holder of a Claim shall not be entitled to receive or recover any amount in excess of the amount provided in the Distribution Reserve to pay such Claim. The Disbursing Agent shall be deemed to have voted any New Common Stock held in the Distribution Reserve in the same proportion as all shares of New Common Stock that are not held in the Distribution Reserve.

 

6.7        Disbursing Agent.

 

All distributions under the Plan (other than distributions described in the next sentences) shall be made by the applicable Debtors as Disbursing Agent or such other entity designated by the applicable Debtor as a Disbursing Agent on or after the Effective Date. Citicorp USA Inc. shall be the Disbursing Agent for all DIP Claims arising under the DIP Credit and Exit Facility Agreement. The Indenture Trustee shall be the Disbursing Agent for all General Unsecured Claims arising under the Indentures. A Disbursing Agent shall not be required to give any bond or surety or other security for the performance of its duties unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court, and, in the event that a Disbursing Agent is so otherwise ordered, all cash and expenses of procuring any such bond or surety shall be borne by the applicable Debtor.

 

6.8        Rights and Powers of Disbursing Agent.

 

(a)           Powers of the Disbursing Agent. The Disbursing Agent shall be empowered to (i) effect all actions and execute all agreements, instruments and other documents necessary to perform its duties under the Plan, (ii) make all distributions contemplated hereby, (iii) employ professionals to represent it with respect to its responsibilities, and (iv) exercise such other powers as may be vested in the Disbursing Agent by order of the Bankruptcy Court, pursuant to the Plan, or as deemed by the Disbursing Agent to be necessary and proper to implement the provisions hereof.

 

(b)           Expenses Incurred on or after the Effective Date. Except as otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court, the amount of any reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Disbursing Agent on or after the Effective Date (including, without limitation, taxes) and any reasonable compensation and expense reimbursement claims (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney fees and expenses) made by the Disbursing Agent shall be paid in Cash by the Reorganized Debtors.

 

6.9        Surrender of Instruments.

 

As a condition to receiving any distribution under the Plan, each holder of a certificated instrument or note must surrender such instrument or note held by it to the Disbursing Agent or its designee, unless such certificated instrument or note is being reinstated or is unimpaired under the Plan. Any holder of such instrument or note that fails to (i) surrender such instrument or note, or (ii) execute and deliver an affidavit of loss and/or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Disbursing Agent and furnish a bond in form, substance and amount reasonably satisfactory to the Disbursing Agent before the

 

25



 

first anniversary of the Effective Date, shall be deemed to have forfeited all rights and Claims and may not participate in any distribution under the Plan. Any distribution so forfeited shall become property of the Reorganized Debtors.

 

6.10     Delivery of Distributions.

 

Subject to Bankruptcy Rule 9010, all distributions to any holder of an Allowed Claim that is not a Disputed Claim, except the holders of DIP Claims (if applicable) and General Unsecured Claims arising under the Indentures shall be made at the address of such holder as set forth on the Schedules filed with the Bankruptcy Court or on the books and records of the Debtors or their agents or in a letter of transmittal unless the Debtors have been notified in writing of a change of address, including, without limitation, by the filing of a proof of claim or interest by such holder that contains an address for such holder different from the address reflected on such Schedules for such holder. All distributions to any holder of a DIP Claim (if applicable) shall be made to Citicorp USA, Inc., as Administrative Agent under the DIP Credit and Exit Facility Agreement. Distributions to holders of General Unsecured Claims arising under the Indentures shall be made to the applicable Indenture Trustee. Any distribution to an Indenture Trustee shall be deemed a distribution to the respective holder of a General Unsecured Claim arising under the Indentures. In the event that any distribution to any holder is returned as undeliverable, the Disbursing Agent shall use reasonable efforts to determine the current address of such holder, but no distribution to such holder shall be made unless and until the Disbursing Agent has determined the then current address of such holder, at which time such distribution shall be made to such holder without interest; provided, however, that such distributions shall be deemed unclaimed property under section 347(b) of the Bankruptcy Code at the expiration of one year from the Effective Date. After such date, all unclaimed property shall revert to the applicable Class, and the claim of any other holder to such property or interest in property shall be discharged and forever barred.

 

6.11     Manner of Payment Under Plan.

 

(a)           All distributions of Cash and New Common Stock to the creditors of each of the Debtors under the Plan shall be made by, or on behalf of, the applicable Reorganized Debtor. Any distributions that revert to any Class or are otherwise cancelled (such as to the extent any distributions have not been claimed within one year or are cancelled pursuant to Section 6.10 hereof) shall revest solely in the applicable Class.

 

(b)           At the option of the Debtors, any Cash payment to be made hereunder may be made by a check or wire transfer or as otherwise required or provided in applicable agreements.

 

6.12     Fractional Shares.

 

No fractional shares of New Common Stock or Cash in lieu thereof, will be distributed. For purposes of all distributions other than the distribution on the Final Distribution Date, fractional shares of New Common Stock will be carried forward to the next applicable Periodic Distribution Date. On the Final Distribution Date, fractional shares of New Common Stock will be rounded up or down to the nearest whole number or zero, as applicable.

 

6.13     Setoffs.

 

The Debtors may, but shall not be required to, set off against any Claim (for purposes of determining the Allowed amount of such Claim on which distribution shall be made), any claims of any nature whatsoever that the Debtors may have against the holder of such Claim, but neither the failure to

 

26



 

do so nor the allowance of any Claim hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release by the Debtors of any such Claims the Debtors may have against the holder of such Claim.

 

6.14     Distributions after the Effective Date.

 

Distributions made after the Effective Date to holders of Allowed Claims that are Disputed Claims as of the Effective Date shall be deemed to have been made on the Effective Date. No interest shall accrue or be payable on such Claims or any distributions.

 

6.15     Allocation of Plan Distributions Between Principal and Interest.

 

To the extent that any Allowed Claim entitled to a distribution under the Plan is comprised of indebtedness and accrued but unpaid interest thereon, such distribution shall be allocated to the principal amount (as determined for federal income tax purposes) of the Claim first, and then to accrued but unpaid interest.

 

6.16     Withholding and Reporting Requirements.

 

In connection with the Plan and all instruments issued in connection therewith and distributed thereon, the applicable Debtor shall comply with all applicable withholding and reporting requirements imposed by any federal, state or local taxing authority, and all distributions under the Plan shall be subject to any such withholding or reporting requirements. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, each Debtor, each Reorganized Debtor and the Disbursing Agent shall be authorized to take all actions necessary or appropriate to comply with such withholding and reporting requirements, including, without limitation, liquidating a portion of the distribution to be made under the Plan to generate sufficient funds to pay applicable withholding taxes or establishing any other mechanisms the Debtors believe are reasonable and appropriate, including requiring claimholders to submit appropriate tax withholding certifications.

 

The Debtors reserve the right to allocate and distribute all distributions made under the Plan in compliance with all applicable wage garnishments, alimony, child support and other spousal awards, liens and similar encumbrances.

 

6.17     Time Bar to Cash Payments.

 

Checks issued by the Reorganized Debtors in respect of Allowed Claims shall be null and void if not presented for payment within sixty (60) days after the date of issuance thereof. Requests for reissuance of any check shall be made to the applicable Reorganized Debtor by the holder of the Allowed Claim to whom such check originally was issued. Any Claim in respect of such a voided check shall be made on or before thirty (30) days after the expiration of the sixty day period following the date of issuance of such check. After such date, all funds held on account of such voided check shall, in the discretion of the applicable Reorganized Debtor, be used to satisfy the costs of administering and fully consummating the Plan or become property of the applicable Reorganized Debtor, and the holder of any such Allowed Claim shall not be entitled to any other or further distribution under the on account of such Allowed Claim.

 

27



 

SECTION 7.                 PROCEDURES FOR DISPUTED CLAIMS

 

7.1        Objection to Claims.

 

The Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors shall be entitled to object to Claims. Any objections to Claims shall be served and filed on or before one hundred eighty (180) days after the Effective Date (unless such day is not a Business Day, in which case such deadline shall be the next Business Day thereafter), as the same may be extended from time to time by the Bankruptcy Court, with the consent of the Post-Effective Date Committee, or as otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court.

 

7.2        Payments and Distributions with Respect to Disputed Claims.

 

(a)           General. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if any portion of a Claim is a Disputed Claim, no payment or distribution provided hereunder shall be made on account of such Claim unless and until such Claim becomes an Allowed Claim that is not a Disputed Claim.

 

(b)           Insured Claims. All prepetition Insured Claims not previously allowed by Final Order are Disputed Claims. Any Insured Claim determined and liquidated shall be deemed a Claim against the applicable Debtor in such liquidated amount and satisfied in accordance with the Plan provided, however, that such claim shall be paid from the insurance proceeds available to satisfy such liquidated amount. Nothing contained in this Section 7.2 impairs the Debtors’ and the Reorganized Debtors’ right to seek estimation of any and all claims in a court or courts of competent jurisdiction or constitute or be deemed a waiver of any Claim, right or cause of action that any Debtor may have against any person in connection with or arising out of any Insured Claim.

 

7.3        Preservation of Insurance.

 

Nothing in the Plan, including the discharge and release of the Debtors as provided in the Plan, shall diminish or impair the enforceability of any insurance policies that may cover Claims against any Debtor.

 

7.4        Retiree Medical Benefit Claims.

 

Following the Effective Date of the Plan, the Reorganized Debtors shall timely pay, without modification, all retiree benefits, as defined in section 1114 of the Bankruptcy Code, except to the extent that the Bankruptcy Court may have ordered otherwise.

 

7.5        Estimation of Claims and Equity Interests.

 

The Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors may at any time request that the Bankruptcy Court estimate any contingent, unliquidated or Disputed Claim pursuant to section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, regardless of whether the Debtor previously objected to such Claim or whether the Bankruptcy Court has ruled on any such objection, and the Bankruptcy Court will retain jurisdiction to estimate any Claim at any time during litigation concerning any objection to any Claim including, without limitation, during the pendency of any appeal relating to any such objection. In the event that the Bankruptcy Court estimates any contingent, unliquidated or Disputed Claim, the amount so estimated shall constitute either the allowed amount of such Claim or a maximum limitation on such Claim, as determined by the Bankruptcy Court. If the estimated amount constitutes a maximum limitation on the

 

28



 

amount of such Claim, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors may pursue supplementary proceedings to object to the allowance of such Claim. All of the aforementioned objection, estimation and resolution procedures are intended to be cumulative and not exclusive of one another. Claims may be estimated and subsequently compromised, settled, withdrawn or otherwise resolved by any mechanism approved by the Bankruptcy Court.

 

7.6        No Recourse.

 

No holder of any Disputed Claim that becomes an Allowed Claim in any applicable Class shall have recourse against the Disbursing Agent, the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors or any other holder of an Allowed Claim or any of their respective professional consultants, advisors, officers, directors or members or their successors or assigns, or any of their respective property, if the Cash or Plan Securities allocated to such Class and not previously distributed are insufficient to provide a distribution to such holder in the same proportion to that received by other holders of Allowed Claims in such Class. However, nothing in the Plan shall modify any right of a holder of a Claim under section 502(j) of the Bankruptcy Code.

 

7.7        Preservation of Rights to Settle Claims.

 

In accordance with section 1123(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors shall retain and may enforce, sue on, settle, or compromise (or decline to do any of the foregoing) all Claims, rights, causes of action, suits and proceedings, whether in law or in equity, whether known or unknown, that the Debtors or their estates may hold against any person or entity, without the necessity for Bankruptcy Court approval under Bankruptcy Rule 9019.

 

The Debtors’ rights to settle Claims against the Debtors’ estates shall continue to be governed by the Settlement Procedures Order.

 

7.8        Presumed Disallowance of Certain Claims.

 

All Claims held by persons or entities against whom any Debtor or Reorganized Debtor has a cause of action under sections 542, 543, 544, 545, 547, 548, 549 and/or 550 of the Bankruptcy Code (and notwithstanding the expiration of any applicable period to commence an action with respect thereto) shall be deemed to be Disputed Claims for all purposes and subject to disallowance pursuant to section 502(d) of the Bankruptcy Code, and holders of such Claims shall not be entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan. Claims that are deemed disputed pursuant to this Section shall continue to be disputed for all purposes until any sums due to the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors from the applicable claimant have been paid, or as otherwise agreed between the parties or ordered by the Bankruptcy Court.

 

SECTION 8.                 EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES

 

8.1        General Treatment.

 

All executory contracts and unexpired leases to which any of the Debtors are parties shall be deemed automatically assumed on the Effective Date except for an executory contract or unexpired lease that (i) has already been assumed or rejected pursuant to Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court, (ii) is specifically designated as a contract or lease to be rejected on the Schedule of Rejected Contracts and Leases to be included in a plan supplement, (iii) is the subject of a separate motion to assume or reject filed under section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code by the Debtors prior to the Confirmation Date, or (iv) is an option or warrant to purchase common stock of any of the Debtors or right to convert any Equity Interest into common stock of any of the Debtors or to the extent such option, warrant, or conversion right

 

29



 

is determined not to be an Equity Interest. The Schedule of Rejected Contracts and Leases shall be filed by the Debtors thee business days prior to the Voting Deadline, subject to their right to amend such Schedule at any time prior to the Confirmation Date.

 

For purposes hereof, each executory contract and unexpired lease that relates to the use or occupancy of real property shall include all (x) modifications, amendments, supplements, restatements, or other agreements made directly or indirectly by any agreement, instrument, or other document that in any manner affects such executory contract or unexpired lease and (y) all easements, licenses, permits, rights, privileges, immunities, options, rights of first refusal, powers, uses, usufructs, reciprocal easement agreements, vault, tunnel or bridge agreements or franchises, and any other interests in real estate or rights in rem relating to such premises.

The management agreements set forth on Schedule 8.3 to the Plan shall be deemed automatically assumed on the Effective Date.

 

8.4        Employee-Related Agreements.

 

To the extent any Employee-Related Agreement as to which any of the Debtors is a party is an executory contract, such Employee-Related Agreement shall be deemed automatically assumed on the Effective Date in accordance with the provisions and requirements of sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code, subject to the Debtors’ right to make future modifications under any Employee-Related Agreement, unless such Employee-Related Agreement (i) shall have been previously assumed by the Debtors by Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court, (ii) is the subject of a motion to assume pending on or before the Effective Date, or (iii) is otherwise assumed pursuant to the terms of the Plan.

 

8.5        Customer Programs.

 

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors, in their sole and absolute discretion, may honor, in the ordinary course of business, all of the Debtors’ customer and loyalty programs, travel credit programs, charter sales program, leisure sales programs, barter arrangements, corporate incentive programs and cargo programs, as such programs may be amended from time to time, and all Proofs of Claim filed on account of any benefits under such programs shall be deemed withdrawn, disallowed, and forever barred from assertion automatically and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

 

8.6        Cure of Defaults.

 

Except to the extent that different treatment has been agreed to by the non-Debtor party or parties to any executory contract or unexpired lease to be assumed pursuant to Sections 8.1, 8.2, 8.3 and 8.4 hereof, the Debtors shall, pursuant to the provisions of sections 1123(a)(5)(G) and 1123(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code and consistent with the requirements of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, within thirty (30) days after the Confirmation Date, file and serve a pleading with the Bankruptcy Court listing the cure amounts of all executory contracts or unexpired leases to be assumed. The parties to such executory contracts or unexpired leases to be assumed by the Debtor shall have fifteen (15) days from

8.8        Rejection Claims.

 

In the event that the rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease by any of the Debtors pursuant to the Plan results in damages to the other party or parties to such contract or lease, a claim for such damages, if not heretofore evidenced by a filed proof of claim, shall be forever barred and shall not be enforceable against the Debtors, or their respective properties or interests in property as agents, successors or assigns, unless a proof of claim is filed with the Bankruptcy Court and served upon counsel for the Debtors on or before the applicable date as set forth in the Bar Date Order.

 

8.9        Survival of the Debtors’ Indemnification Obligations.

 

Any obligations of the Debtors pursuant to their corporate charters and bylaws or agreements entered into any time prior to the Effective Date, to indemnify past and current directors, officers, agents, and/or employees with respect to all present and future actions, suits, and proceedings against the Debtors or such directors, officers, agents, and/or employees, based upon any act or omission for or on behalf of the Debtors shall not be discharged or impaired by confirmation of the Plan.

31



 

SECTION 9.                 THE RIGHTS OFFERING

 

9.1        Subscription Rights.

 

Pursuant to the Rights Offering, an Eligible Holder of an Allowed Class 1D Claim as of the Subscription Rights Record Date will be offered a Subscription Right to purchase up to its Pro Rata share of 23,611,111 Shares of New Common Stock for Distribution Pursuant to Rights Offering at the Subscription Purchase Price of $27.00 per Share. The closing date of the Rights Offering shall be the Effective Date of the Plan.

 

9.2        Subscription Period.

 

The Rights Offering will commence on the date that ballots to accept or reject the Plan are distributed and will end on the Rights Offering Expiration Date.

 

9.3        Exercise of Subscription Rights.

 

In order to exercise the Subscription Rights, each Eligible Holder of an Allowed Claim in Class 1D must (a) return a duly completed Subscription Form to the Subscription Agent so that such form is received by the Subscription Agent on or before the Rights Offering Expiration Date; and (b) pay an amount equal to the full Subscription Purchase Price of the number of shares of New Common Stock elected to be purchased by such Eligible Holder by wire transfer or bank or cashier’s check delivered to the Subscription Agent with the Subscription Form on or before the Rights Offering Expiration Date. If the Subscription Agent for any reason does not receive from a given Eligible Holder both a timely and duly completed Subscription Form and timely payment of such holder’s Subscription Purchase Price, such Eligible Holder will be deemed to have relinquished and waived its right to participate in the Rights Offering.

 

9.4        Oversubscription Rights.

 

The Subscription Form will permit each Eligible Holder of an Allowed Class 1D Claim as of the Subscription Rights Record Date to subscribe for additional shares of New Common Stock at the Subscription Purchase Price up to an amount equal to 200% of the Eligible Holders’ Pro Rata share of the Rights Offering. Eligible Holders electing to subscribe for additional shares must indicate the amount of shares in the appropriate place on the Subscription Form and pay for such additional shares in the same manner as the shares purchased pursuant to the Subscription Rights. Any oversubscription exercise of Subscription Rights will be subject to proration in the event that the total number of Subscription Rights sought to be exercised, including oversubscriptions, exceeds the number of Subscription Rights issued under the Plan, as follows: (i) all Subscription Rights that shall have otherwise been validly and effectively exercised pursuant to primary exercise shall be deemed to have been validly and effectively exercised; and (ii) the number of Subscription Rights that shall be deemed to have been validly and effectively exercised by any Eligible Holder of Subscription Rights pursuant to an oversubscription (assuming that all other requirements for valid and effective exercise shall have been satisfied) shall be determined by (a) multiplying the aggregate number of Subscription Rights that were not validly and effectively exercised pursuant to primary exercises by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of Subscription Rights exercised by such Eligible Holder pursuant to an oversubscription and the denominator of which shall be the number of oversubscription Subscription Rights exercised by all Eligible Holders exercising oversubscription Subscription Rights; and (b) eliminating any resulting fractions. If the proration pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence would otherwise result in any Eligible Holder being deemed to have validly and effectively exercised a greater number of Subscription Rights than such Eligible Holder sought to exercise pursuant to its oversubscription, then such Eligible

 

32



 

Holder will be deemed to have validly and effectively exercised only that number of Subscription Rights which such Eligible Holder sought to exercise pursuant to its oversubscription and any remaining Subscription Rights not otherwise deemed to have been validly and effectively exercised will be deemed to have been validly and effectively exercised by other Eligible Holders of Subscription Rights that have oversubscribed on the basis set forth in the immediately preceding sentence. This proration process will be repeated as necessary until all Subscription Rights shall have been deemed to have been validly and effectively exercised by such Eligible Holders.

 

9.5        Undersubscription.

 

In the event that all the New Common Stock reserved for the Rights Offering is not purchased by creditors with Subscription Rights or by creditors who have exercised their oversubscription rights, the Rights Offering Sponsor will purchase on the closing date of the Rights Offering, for the Subscription Purchase Price per share, a number of shares of New Common Stock equal to the number of shares of New Common Stock for Distribution Pursuant to Rights Offering minus the number of shares of New Common Stock for Distribution Pursuant to Rights Offering subscribed for on or before the Rights Offering Expiration Date, including shares subscribed for pursuant to oversubscription rights.

 

Pursuant to the Rights Offering Sponsor Agreement, the Ultimate Purchasers and the Rights Offering Sponsor will enter into a syndication agreement, pursuant to which the Ultimate Purchasers will agree to purchase from the Rights Offering Sponsor certain unsubscribed shares and Purchased Shares purchased by the Rights Offering Sponsor.

 

9.6        The Purchased Shares.

 

In addition to its purchase of the shares not subscribed for in the Rights Offering pursuant to section 9.5 hereof, the Rights Offering Sponsor will purchase on the closing date of the Rights Offering, for the Subscription Purchase Price per share, 4,166,667 additional shares of New Common Stock.

 

9.7        Transfer of Subscription Rights; Election Irrevocable.

 

The Subscription Rights may not be sold, transferred, or assigned except with the express written consent of the Debtors. Once a holder of Subscription Rights has properly exercised its Subscription Rights, such exercise will be irrevocable.

 

9.8        Distribution of New Common Stock.

 

On, or as soon as practicable after the Effective Date, the Disbursing Agent shall distribute the New Common Stock For Distribution Pursuant to Rights Offering purchased by the Exercising Claimants.

 

9.9        No Interest.

 

In the event the Subscription Purchase Price is returned to the Exercising Claimant no interest shall be paid thereon.

 

9.10     Fractional Rights.

 

No Fractional Subscription Rights will be issued. The number of shares of New Common Stock available for purchase by Exercising Claimants will be rounded down to the nearest

 

33



 

share. Any shares of New Common Stock not subscribed as a result of such rounding will be pooled and made available for oversubscription, and, if necessary, purchased by the Rights Offering Sponsor.

 

9.11     Validity of Exercise of Subscription Rights.

 

All questions concerning the timeliness, viability, form and eligibility of any exercise of Subscription Rights shall be determined by the Debtors, whose good faith determinations shall be final and binding. The Debtors, in their sole discretion reasonably exercised in good faith, may waive any defect or irregularity, or permit a defect or irregularity to be corrected within such times as the Debtors determine, or reject the purported exercise of any Subscription Rights. Subscription Forms shall be deemed not to have been received or accepted until all irregularities have been waived or used within such time as the Debtors determine in their sole discretion reasonably exercised in good faith. Neither the Debtors nor the Subscription Agent shall be under any duty to give notification of any defect or irregularity in connection with the submission of Subscription Forms or incur any liability for failure to give such notification.

 

9.12     Use of Proceeds.

 

On the Effective Date, the proceeds received by Reorganized NWA Corp. from the Rights Offering shall be used for general corporate purposes.

 

9.13     Limitation on Acquisition of Shares.

 

Unless the Debtors in consultation with the Creditors Committee agree to such acquisition, an Exercising Claimant may not acquire New Common Stock for Distribution Pursuant to Rights Offering if, and to the extent, as a result of such acquisition for the purposes of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, any person or entity (i) who would not otherwise be treated as owning more than 4.75% of the New Common Stock outstanding at the time of delivery of New Common Stock for Distribution Pursuant to Rights Offering would be so treated as a result of such acquisition; or (ii) who would otherwise be treated as owning more than 4.75% of the New Common Stock outstanding at the time of delivery of New Common Stock for Distribution Pursuant to Rights Offering would be treated as owning a greater percentage of shares of New Common Stock as a result of such acquisition.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Rights Offering Sponsor is obligated to purchase a number of shares which would cause its ownership interest in NWA Corp. (including the shares of New Common Stock, if any, received by the Rights Offering Sponsor, in any capacity, pursuant to the Plan), as determined for the purposes of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, to exceed 4.75% of the total number of shares of New Common Stock to be outstanding on the Closing Date, NWA Corp. will either reduce the Rights Offering Sponsor’s purchase obligation such that its ownership of New Common Stock would not exceed 4.75% or permit the Rights Offering Sponsor to purchase shares in excess of 4.75% to comply with its purchase obligation; provided that in the latter case, the board of directors of NWA Corp. will waive all restrictions contemplated by Section 5.6 of the Plan on the Rights Offering Sponsor’s ability to dispose of any unsubscribed shares owned by it.

 

The Subscription Purchase Price paid by an Exercising Claimant will be refunded, without interest, in each case as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date, if and to the extent that any limitation specified in the Plan (including in this Section) or in Exhibit A to the Plan would operate to disallow acquisition of New Common Stock for Distribution Pursuant to Rights Offering by such Exercising Claimant.

None of the Debtors nor any Released Party shall have or incur any liability to any holder of a Claim or Equity Interest for any act or omission (and in the case of any director, officer, agent or employee of any Debtor who was employed or otherwise serving in such capacity on the Confirmation Date, any claims against such Persons) in connection with, or arising out of, the Chapter 11 Cases, the formulation, preparation, negotiation, dissemination, implementation, administration, confirmation or consummation of any of the Plan, or the property to be distributed under the Plan, the disclosure statement concerning the Plan, any contract, employee pension or other benefit plan, instrument, release or other agreement of document created, modified, amended, terminated or entered into in connection with either the Plan or any agreement between the Debtors and any Released Party, or any other act taken

From and after the Effective Date, the Released Parties shall be released by each Debtor from any and all claims (as defined in section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code), obligations, suits, judgments, damages, rights, causes of action and liabilities whatsoever, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, existing or hereafter arising, in law, equity or otherwise, that any Debtor is entitled to assert in its own right or on behalf of the holder of any Claim or Equity Interest or other Person, based in whole or in part upon any act or omission, transaction, agreement, event or other occurrence taking place on or prior to the Effective Date in any way relating to any Debtor, the Chapter 11 Cases, the formulation, preparation, negotiation, dissemination, implementation, administration, confirmation or consummation of any of the Plan, or the property to be distributed under the Plan, the disclosure statement concerning the Plan, any contract, employee pension or other benefit plan, instrument, release or other agreement of document created, modified, amended, terminated or entered into in connection with either the Plan or any agreement between the Debtors and any Released Party, or any other act taken or omitted to be taken in connection with the Company’s bankruptcy. Without limitation of the foregoing, each such Released Party shall be released and exculpated from any and all Claims, obligations, suits, judgments, damages, rights, causes of action and liabilities whatsoever, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, existing or hereafter arising, in law, equity or otherwise, that any holder of a Claim or Equity Interest is entitled to assert in its own right or on behalf of any other person, based in whole or in part upon any act or omission, transaction, agreement, event or other occurrence taking place prior to the Commencement Date. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, the Debtors reserve all rights and provide no release with respect to any claims or defenses relating to any litigation by or against any Indenture Trustee that remains pending as of the Effective Date.

Other Amendments.

Notwithstanding any such holding, alteration, or interpretation, the remainder of the terms of the Plan will remain in full force and effect and in no way will be affected, impaired or invalidated by such holding, alteration or interpretation.

EQUITY COMMITMENT AGREEMENT

 

February 12, 2007

 

J.P. Morgan Securities Inc.
270 Park Avenue
New York, New York 10017

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

Subject to the approval of this Agreement by the Bankruptcy Court (as defined in the second paragraph of this Agreement), Northwest Airlines Corporation, a Delaware corporation (as a debtor-in-possession and a reorganized debtor, as applicable, the “Company”), proposes to offer and sell 27,777,778 shares of its new common stock, par value $0.01 per share, to be issued pursuant to the Amended Plan (as defined below in this paragraph) (together with any associated share purchase rights other than the Rights (as defined below in this paragraph), “New Common Stock”), of which 23,611,111 shares, (the “Shares”), will be offered pursuant to a rights offering (the “Rights Offering”) whereby each holder of an Allowed Class 1D Claim (other than a Subordinated Claim) (each an “Eligible Holder”), as of the record date fixed by the Bankruptcy Court for the solicitation of acceptances and rejections of the Amended Plan, shall be offered the right (each, a “Right”) to purchase up to its pro rata share of 23,611,111 Shares of New Common Stock, at a purchase price of $27.00 per Share (the “Purchase Price”). Each capitalized term used but not defined in this letter (this “Agreement”) shall have the meaning given to it in the Debtors’ Joint and Consolidated Plan of Reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code filed on January 12, 2007 (the “Existing Plan”). The Existing Plan as amended or supplemented at the time of its approval by the Bankruptcy Court is hereinafter referred to as the “Amended Plan.”

 

The Company will conduct the Rights Offering as part of the implementation of a plan of reorganization for the Company, as a debtor-in-possession under chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C.§§101 et seq. (the “Bankruptcy Code”), and its affiliates who are also debtors and debtors-in-possession in the chapter 11 cases pending and jointly administered in the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”) under Case No. 05-17930. The Amended Plan shall be the Existing Plan with only those revisions, modifications, supplements and amendments to the Existing Plan as are necessary to incorporate the terms in the term sheet attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Term Sheet”) and such other revisions, modifications, supplements and amendments that the Company and the other Debtors deem necessary or appropriate and that shall not (i) materially adversely affect the obligations or rights of the Investor hereunder or as the Rights Offering Sponsor, as a holder of New Common Stock or as the Initial Purchaser (as

 



 

defined in the Syndication Agreement, defined in the fifth paragraph of this Agreement), (ii) cause any representation or warranty contained herein to be incorrect or (iii) be inconsistent with the terms of the Term Sheet.

 

In order to facilitate the Rights Offering, pursuant to this Agreement, and subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. (the “Investor”) agrees to purchase on the Closing Date (as defined in Section 2(e)), and the Company agrees to sell, for the Purchase Price times the number of shares so purchased, a number of shares of New Common Stock equal to the aggregate number of Shares minus the number of shares of New Common Stock offered pursuant to the Rights Offering and purchased on or before the Expiration Time (as defined in Section 1(b)), including shares purchased pursuant to oversubscription rights (such Shares to be purchased by the Investor in the aggregate, the “Unsubscribed Shares”).

 

In addition, pursuant to this Agreement, and subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, the Investor agrees to purchase on the Closing Date, and the Company agrees to sell, for the Purchase Price times the number of Shares so purchased, 4,166,667 additional shares of New Common Stock, (the “Purchased Shares”). The Unsubscribed Shares and the Purchased Shares are herein collectively referred to as the “ECA Shares.”

 

Simultaneously with the delivery of this Agreement, certain persons (the “Ultimate Purchasers”) and the Investor are entering into a syndication agreement (the “Syndication Agreement”), pursuant to which the Ultimate Purchasers are agreeing to purchase from the Investor certain ECA Shares purchased by the Investor. In the Syndication Agreement, each Ultimate Purchaser has represented and warranted that it is not a Competitor (as defined below) of the Company and that it will not assign its rights and obligations thereunder to such a Competitor. “Competitor” means an airline, a commercial air carrier, an air freight forwarder, an entity engaged in the business of parcel transport by air or a corporation or other entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with such an airline, commercial air carrier, air freight forwarder or entity engaged in the business of parcel transport by air. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the 4.75% limitation referred to in Section 2(a) becomes applicable, the Company may require the Ultimate Purchasers to purchase the ECA Shares they have agreed to purchase under the Syndication Agreement directly from the Company.

 

The Company hereby waives the restrictions contained in any confidentiality agreement between the Company and the Investor or the Company and any Ultimate Purchaser that was entered into in contemplation of an equity investment in the Company and not in contemplation of the Investor or such Ultimate Purchaser’s agreement to act as a backstop provider (a “Prior Confidentiality Agreement”), but only to the extent such restrictions would otherwise restrict or impair the ability of the Investor or such Ultimate Purchaser to perform its obligations under this Agreement or the Syndication Agreement, as applicable; provided, however, that the foregoing waiver shall not apply to any provision in any Prior Confidentiality Agreement that restricts the ability of a party thereto to acquire in excess of 4.75% of any

class of securities of the Company or, to the extent covered by the Investor’s or such Ultimate Purchaser’s Prior Confidentiality Agreement, claims relating to the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ voluntary petitions for relief under the chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code unless and only to the extent such provision is waived by the Company pursuant to Section 2(a) of this Agreement.

 

In consideration of the foregoing, and the representations, warranties and covenants set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the Company and the Investor agree as follows:

 

1.             The Rights Offering. The Rights Offering will be conducted as follows:

 

(a)           Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including Bankruptcy Court approval), the Company hereby undertakes to offer Shares for subscription by holders of Rights pursuant to the Amended Plan as set forth in this Agreement.

 

(b)           Ballot form(s) (the “Ballots”) will be distributed in connection with the solicitation of acceptance of the Amended Plan. Subscription form(s) (the “Subscription Forms”) will simultaneously be delivered pursuant to which each Eligible Holder may exercise its Rights. The Rights may be exercised during a period (the “Rights Exercise Period”) to be specified in the Amended Plan, which period will commence on the date the Ballots are distributed and will end at the Expiration Time. “Expiration Time” means 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the 30th calendar day (or if such day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day) after the date the Ballots are distributed under the Amended Plan, or such later date as the Company, subject to the approval of the Investor, may specify in a notice provided to the Investor before 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day before the then-effective Expiration Time. “Business Day” means each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday that is not a day on which banking institutions in New York City are generally authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close. Subject to the approval of this Agreement by the Bankruptcy Court, the Amended Plan shall provide that in order to exercise a Right, each Eligible Holder shall, prior to the Expiration Time, (i) return a duly executed Subscription Form to the Subscription Agent (as defined in Section 1(d)), and (ii) pay an amount equal to the full purchase price of the number of shares of New Common Stock elected to be purchased by such Eligible Holder by wire transfer or bank or cashier’s check delivered to the Subscription Agent with the Subscription Form no later than the Expiration Time.

 

(c)           The Company will issue the Shares to the Eligible Holders with respect to which Rights were validly exercised by such holders upon the effective date of the Amended Plan (the “Effective Date”). If the exercise of a Right would result in the issuance of a fractional share of New Common Stock, then the number of shares of New Common Stock to be issued in respect of such Right will be rounded up or down to the next whole share.

(d)           If the subscription agent under the Amended Plan ( the “Subscription Agent”) for any reason does not receive from a given holder both a timely and duly completed Subscription Form and timely payment for the Shares being purchased by such holder, the Amended Plan shall provide that the holder shall be deemed to have relinquished and waived its right to participate in the Rights Offering.

 

(e)           The Company hereby agrees and undertakes to give the Investor by electronic facsimile transmission the certification by an executive officer of the Company conforming to the requirements specified herein for such certification of either (i) a true and accurate calculation of the number of Unsubscribed Shares and the aggregate Purchase Price therefor (a “Purchase Notice”) or (ii) in the absence of any Unsubscribed Shares, the fact that there are no Unsubscribed Shares and that the Backstop Commitment (as defined in Section 2(a)) is terminated (a “Satisfaction Notice”), as soon as practicable after the Expiration Time and, in any event, at least four (4) Business Days prior to the Effective Date (the date of transmission of confirmation of a Purchase Notice or a Satisfaction Notice, the “Determination Date”).

 

(f)            There will be over-subscription rights provided in connection with the Rights Offering, provided that the right of any creditor to oversubscribe will not exceed 200% of the number of Shares such creditor is entitled to purchase without giving effect to any oversubscription right.

 

(g)           In the event the Expiration Time has not occurred by May 15, 2007, on May 16, 2007, the Company will pay to the Investor a nonrefundable fee of $1,875,000, and in the event the Expiration Time has not occurred by May 31, 2007, on June 1, 2007, the Company will pay to the Investor an additional nonrefundable fee of $1,875,000. The fees payable pursuant to this Section 2(g) are hereinafter referred to as the “Expiration Time Fee.”

 

2.             The Backstop Commitment and Purchased Shares.

 

(a)           On the basis of the representations and warranties contained herein, but subject to the conditions set forth in Section 7 (including without limitation the entry of the Agreement Order (as defined in Section 5(a)) and the Agreement Order becoming a Final Agreement Order (as defined below in this Section)), the Investor agrees to purchase on the Closing Date, and the Company agrees to issue and sell, at the aggregate Purchase Price therefor, all Unsubscribed Shares (the “Backstop Commitment”) and all Purchased Shares. “Final Agreement Order” shall mean the Agreement Order, which has not been reversed, stayed, modified or amended, and as to which (a) the time to appeal, seek certiorari or request reargument or further review or rehearing has expired, and no appeal, petition for certiorari or request for reargument or further review or rehearing has been timely filed, or (b) any appeal that has been or may be taken or any petition for certiorari or request for reargument or further review or rehearing that has been or may be filed has been resolved by the highest court to which the order or judgment was appealed, from which certiorari was sought or to which the

 

4



 

request was made, and no further appeal or petition for certiorari has been or can be taken or granted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Investor is obligated to purchase a number of Unsubscribed Shares and Purchased Shares which would cause its ownership interest in the Company (including the shares of New Common Stock, if any, received by the Investor, in any capacity, pursuant to the Amended Plan), as determined for the purposes of Section 382 of the Code, to exceed 4.75% of the total number of shares of New Common Stock to be outstanding on the Closing Date, the Investor will immediately notify the Company in writing of such determination, and the Company will either (i) reduce the Investor’s purchase obligation such that its ownership of New Common Stock would not exceed 4.75% or (ii) permit the Investor to purchase shares in excess of 4.75% to comply with its purchase obligations hereunder; provided that, in the latter case, the Board of Directors of the Company shall waive all restrictions, including those contemplated by Sections 5.7 and 9.12 of the Existing Plan, on the Investor’s ability to dispose of a number of Shares equal to the number of Unsubscribed Shares owned by it. In addition, in the event any Ultimate Purchaser is obligated under the Syndication Agreement to purchase a number of ECA Shares which could cause its ownership interest in the Company (including the shares of New Common Stock, if any, received by such Ultimate Purchaser, in any capacity, pursuant to the Amended Plan), as determined for the purposes of Section 382 of the Code, to exceed 4.75% of the total number of shares of New Common Stock to be outstanding on the Closing Date, the Board of Directors of the Company shall waive all restrictions, including those contemplated by Sections 5.7 and 9.12 of the Existing Plan, on such Ultimate Purchaser’s ability to dispose of a number of shares of New Common Stock equal to the number of ECA Shares owned by it.

 

(b)           On the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained, but subject to the entry of the Agreement Order, the Company will pay to the Investor a backstop fee equal to $20,625,000 (the “Backstop Fee”) to compensate the Investor for the risk of its undertaking herein. The Backstop Fee, as well as all other amounts payable hereunder, will be paid in U.S. dollars, and the Backstop Fee will be paid on the first Business Day after the tenth day after the entry of the Agreement Order; it being understood that in the event the Agreement Order is appealed, and the highest court to which the Agreement Order was appealed issues a final order vacating or reversing the Agreement Order and further orders disgorgement of all or a portion of the Backstop Fee, the Investor shall promptly return to the Company the portion of the Backstop Fee required to be so disgorged. Payment of the Backstop Fee will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified by the Investor to the Company at least 24 hours in advance; provided, that if the Investor receives the Backstop Fee, the Investor shall waive any of its rights to receive punitive damages in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Except as set forth in this subsection (b), the Backstop Fee will be nonrefundable when paid.

 

(c)           Upon the entry of the Agreement Order, the Company will reimburse or pay, as the case may be, the out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by the

Investor with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, including the filing fee, if any, required by the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the “HSR Act”) and expenses related thereto and all Bankruptcy Court and other judicial and regulatory proceedings related to such transactions (collectively, “Transaction Expenses”), including all reasonable fees and expenses of both Cahill Gordon & Reindel LLP and Cronin & Vris, LLP, counsels to the Investor, and Stroock & Stroock & Lavan LLP, counsel for the Ultimate Purchasers, and reasonable fees and expenses of any other professionals retained by the Investor with the prior approval of the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated herein and those contemplated by the Term Sheet. Such reimbursement or payment shall be made by the Company within ten (10) days of presentation of an invoice approved by the Investor, without Bankruptcy Court review or further Bankruptcy Court order, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated; it being understood that in the event the Agreement Order is appealed, and the highest court to which the Agreement Order was appealed issues a final order vacating or reversing the Agreement Order and further orders disgorgement of all or a portion of the Transaction Expenses, the Investor shall promptly return to the Company the portion of the Transaction Expenses required to be so disgorged. These obligations are in addition to, and do not limit, the Company’s obligations under Section 8.

 

(d)           On the Closing Date (as defined in Section 2(e)), the Investor will purchase, and the Company will sell, only such number of Unsubscribed Shares as are listed in the Purchase Notice, without prejudice to the rights of the Investor to seek later an upward or downward adjustment if the number of Unsubscribed Shares in such Purchase Notice is inaccurate.

 

(e)           Delivery of the ECA Shares will be made by the Company to the account of the Investor (or to such other accounts as the Investor may designate) at 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Effective Date (the “Closing Date”) against payment of the aggregate Purchase Price for the ECA Shares by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified by the Company to the Investor at least 24 hours in advance.

 

(f)            All ECA Shares will be delivered with any and all issue, stamp, transfer or similar taxes or duties payable in connection with such delivery duly paid by the Company to the extent required under the Confirmation Order or applicable law.

26



 

(t)            Bankruptcy Court Approval. The Registration Rights Agreement shall have been approved by the Bankruptcy Court in a final order and shall have been executed by the parties thereto in substantially the same form as the forms thereof filed with the Bankruptcy Court.

 

(u)           Fees, Etc. All fees and other amounts required to be paid or reimbursed to the Investor as of the Closing Date shall have been paid or reimbursed.

 

8.             Indemnification.

 

(a)           Subject to the approval of this Agreement by the Bankruptcy Court, whether or not the Rights Offering is consummated or this Agreement or the Backstop Commitment is terminated, the Company (in such capacity, the “Indemnifying Party”) shall indemnify and hold harmless the Investor and Ultimate Purchasers, their respective affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and controlling persons (each an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable expenses, joint or several, to which any such Indemnified Person may become subject arising out of or in connection with any claim, challenge, litigation, investigation or proceeding with respect to the Rights Offering, the Backstop Commitment, the Transaction Documents, the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or the transactions contemplated thereby, including without limitation, payment of the Transaction Expenses, Backstop Fee or Termination Fee, if any, distribution of Rights, purchase and sale of Shares in the Rights Offering and purchase and sale of ECA Shares pursuant to this Agreement, or any breach of the Company of this Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement, regardless of whether any of such Indemnified Persons is a party thereto, and to reimburse such Indemnified Persons for any reasonable legal or other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses as they are incurred in connection with investigating, responding to or defending any of the foregoing, provided that the foregoing indemnification will not, as to any Indemnified Person, apply to losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to the extent that they are finally judicially determined to have resulted from (i) bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Indemnified Person or (ii) statements or omissions in the Preliminary Prospectus, Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto made in reliance upon or in conformity with information relating to the Investor or the Ultimate Purchaser furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of the Investor or the Ultimate Purchaser expressly for use in the Preliminary Prospectus, Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or (iii) any statement or omission in the Preliminary Prospectus, Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto that is corrected in any subsequent prospectus that was delivered to the Investor or the Ultimate Purchaser at least two Business Days prior to the relevant sale or sales by the Investor or Ultimate Purchaser. If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Indemnified Person or insufficient to hold it harmless, then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense in such proportion as is

 

27



 

appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and such Indemnified Person on the other hand but also the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Person, on the other hand, as well as any relevant equitable considerations. It is hereby agreed that the relative benefits to the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and all Indemnified Persons on the other hand shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as (i) the total value received or proposed to be received by the Company pursuant to the sale of Shares and Purchased Shares contemplated by this Agreement bears to (ii) the fee paid or proposed to be paid to the Investor in connection with such sale plus the difference between the price paid by the Investor for the purchase of the Purchased Shares and the market value of the Purchased Shares on the Closing Date. The Indemnifying Party also agrees that no Indemnified Person shall have any liability based on their exclusive or contributory negligence or otherwise to the Indemnifying Party, any person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of any of the Indemnifying Party, or any other person in connection with or as a result of the Rights Offering, the Backstop Commitment, the Transaction Documents, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or the transactions contemplated thereby, except as to any Indemnified Person to the extent that any losses, claims, damages, liability or expenses incurred by the Company are finally judicially determined to have resulted from (i) bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person in performing the services that are the subject of this Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement or (ii) statements or omissions in the Preliminary Prospectus, Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto made in reliance upon or in conformity with information relating to the Investor or the Ultimate Purchaser furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of the Investor or the Ultimate Purchaser expressly for use in the Preliminary Prospectus, Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or (iii) any statement or omission in the Preliminary Prospectus, Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto that is corrected in any subsequent prospectus that was delivered to the Investor or the Ultimate Purchaser at least two Business Days prior to the relevant sale or sales by the Investor or Ultimate Purchaser; provided, however, that in no event shall an Indemnified Person or such other parties have any liability for any indirect, consequential or punitive damages in connection with or as a result of any of their activities related to the foregoing. The indemnity, reimbursement and contribution obligations of the Indemnifying Party under this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Party may otherwise have to an Indemnified Person and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Indemnifying Party and any Indemnified Person.

 

(b)           Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person of notice of the commencement of any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to the Transaction Documents, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any of the transactions contemplated thereby (“Proceedings”), such Indemnified Person will, if a claim is to be made hereunder against the Indemnifying Party in respect thereof, notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the commencement thereof; provided that (i) the

 

28



 

omission so to notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve it from any liability that it may have hereunder except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and (ii) the omission so to notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an Indemnified Person otherwise than on account of this Section 8. In case any such Proceedings are brought against any Indemnified Person and it notifies the Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it may elect by written notice delivered to such Indemnified Person, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, provided that if the defendants in any such Proceedings include both such Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnified Person shall have concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party, such Indemnified Person shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such Proceedings on behalf of such Indemnified Person. Upon receipt of notice from the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Person of its election so to assume the defense of such Proceedings and approval by such Indemnified Person of counsel, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Person for expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with the defense thereof (other than reasonable costs of investigation) unless (i) such Indemnified Person shall have employed separate counsel in connection with the assertion of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the next preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel, approved by Investor, representing the Indemnified Persons who are parties to such Proceedings), (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person to represent such Indemnified Person within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the Proceedings or (iii) the Indemnifying Party shall have authorized in writing the employment of counsel for such Indemnified Person.

 

(c)           The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceedings effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). If any settlement of any Proceeding is consummated with the written consent of the Indemnifying Party or if there is a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such Proceedings, the Indemnifying Party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses by reason of such settlement or judgment in accordance with, and subject to the limitations of, the provisions of this Section 8. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of an Indemnified Person (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceedings in respect of which indemnity has been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person unless (a) such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person in form and substance satisfactory to such Indemnified Person from all liability on the claims that are the subject matter of such Proceedings and

 

29



 

(b) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

 

9.             Survival of Representations and Warranties, Etc. Notwithstanding any investigation at any time made by or on behalf of any party hereto, all representations, warranties and covenants made in this Agreement will survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Closing Date, except that the representations and warranties made in Sections 3(n), (o) (p), (r), (s) and (w)-(z) will only survive for a period of three (3) years after the Closing Date.

 

10.           Termination.

 

(a)           This Agreement shall automatically terminate:

 

(i)            If the Company has not filed the Agreement Motion with the bankruptcy Court by February 15, 2007;

 

(ii)           If the Bankruptcy Court has not entered the Agreement Order by March 30, 2007, but in no event later than the date the Bankruptcy Court approved the Disclosure Statement; or

 

(iii)          If the purchase and sale contemplated by Section 2(a) have not occurred by June 30, 2007.

 

(b)           The Investor may terminate this Agreement:

 

(i)            If the Backstop Fee has not been paid by the first Business Day after the tenth day following the entry of the Agreement Order;

 

(ii)           If any Expiration Time Fee has not been paid as required by Section 1(g);

 

(iii)          Upon the failure of any of the conditions set forth in Section 7 to be satisfied, which failure is incapable of cure by June 30, 2007;

 

(iv)          If the Company makes a public announcement, enters into an agreement or files any pleading or document with the Bankruptcy Court evidencing its intention to support, or otherwise supports, any Competing Transaction; or

 

(v)           If there shall have occurred any act of terrorism, or a credible threat, attempt or conspiracy with respect to an act of terrorism, relating to a major commercial airport in the United States, Western Europe or on the Company’s route system or with respect to a United States, Western European or Asian commercial aircraft on the Company’s route system, which act, threat, attempt or conspiracy causes the Federal Aviation Administration (or other applicable non-U.S. regulatory entity) to (i) close any major United States, Western European or Asian commercial airport on the

 

30



 

Company’s route system for a period of at least 48 hours, (ii) ground United States domestic commercial flights for a period of at least 48 hours or (iii) ground Northwest Airlines commercial flights for a period of at least 48 hours, and the Investor concludes in its reasonable judgment that it is inadvisable to proceed with the purchase of the ECA Shares or the reoffer thereof.

 

(c)           The Company may terminate this Agreement at any time prior to the entry of the Agreement Order, by giving written notice to the Investor of its determination not to proceed with the transactions contemplated hereby, whereupon this Agreement will terminate.

 

(d)           If this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 10(c), or if this Agreement terminated automatically pursuant to Section 10(a)(i) or (ii) and at the time of such termination the Investor is in compliance in all material respects with its obligations under this Agreement, then, subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court, the Company shall pay the Investor $7,500,000 (the “Termination Fee”), and, in any event, the Company shall pay to the Investor any Transaction Expenses and any other amounts certified by the Investor to be due and payable hereunder that have not been paid theretofore. Payment of the amounts due under this Section 10(d) will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account or accounts specified by the Investor at least 24 hours in advance to the Company. The provision for the payment of the Termination Fee is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and without this provision the Investor would not have entered into this Agreement and shall, subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court, constitute an administrative expense of the Company under section 364(c)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code. Accordingly, if payment shall become due and payable pursuant to this Section, and suit is commenced which results in a final judgment against the Company no longer subject to appeal, the Company shall pay to the Investor its costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, in connection with collecting or enforcing its rights and remedies hereunder.

 

(e)           In no event will the Termination Fee, if any, be refundable upon termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.

 

(f)            Upon termination under this Section 10, the covenants and agreements made by the parties herein under Sections 1(g), 2(b), 2(c), 8, 9, 10(d) and 11 through 19 will survive indefinitely in accordance with their terms.

 

11.           Notices. All notices and other communications in connection with this Agreement will be in writing and will be deemed given (and will be deemed to have been duly given upon receipt) if delivered personally, sent via electronic facsimile (with confirmation), mailed by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested) or delivered by an express courier (with confirmation) to the parties at the following addresses (or at such other address for a party as will be specified by like notice):

12.           Assignment; Third Party Beneficiaries. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement will be assigned by any of the parties (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other party. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, this Agreement, or the Investor’s obligations hereunder, may be assigned, delegated or transferred, in whole or in part, by the Investor to any Affiliate (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) of the Investor over which the Investor or any of its Affiliates exercises investment authority, including, without limitation, with respect to voting and dispositive rights; provided, that any such assignee assumes the obligations of the Investor hereunder and agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement in the same manner as the Investor. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provisions herein, no such assignment will relieve the Investor of its obligations hereunder if such assignee fails to perform such obligations. Except as provided in the sixth paragraph of this Agreement and the last sentence of Section 2(a) with respect to Ultimate Purchasers, and except as provided in Section 8 with respect to the Indemnified Parties, this Agreement (including the documents and instruments referred to in this Agreement) is not intended to and does not confer upon any person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Investor may direct the Company, by notice given to the Company at least one Business Day prior to the Closing Date, to deliver the number of ECA Shares to be purchased by an Ultimate Purchaser to such Ultimate Purchaser, in which case payment for such ECA Shares will be made directly to the Company by such Ultimate Purchaser; provided that in no such case shall the Investor be relieved of its obligation to pay for such ECA Shares in the event the Ultimate Purchaser does not so pay, and no Ultimate Purchaser shall obtain any rights of the Investor under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provisions hereof, the Investor may not assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement to the extent such assignment would violate applicable securities laws.

 

33



 

13.           Prior Negotiations; Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the exhibits hereto and the documents and instruments referred to in this Agreement) constitutes the entire agreement of the parties and supersedes all prior agreements, arrangements or understandings, whether written or oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, except that the parties hereto acknowledge that any confidentiality agreements heretofore executed among the parties will continue in full force and effect.

 

14.           GOVERNING LAW; VENUE. THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE GOVERNED AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. THE INVESTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF, AND VENUE IN, THE UNITED STATES BANKRUPTCY COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND WAIVES ANY OBJECTION BASED ON FORUM NON CONVENIENS.

 

15.           Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which will be considered one and the same agreement and will become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other party (including via facsimile or other electronic transmission), it being understood that each party need not sign the same counterpart.

 

16.           Waivers and Amendments. This Agreement may be amended, modified, superseded, cancelled, renewed or extended, and the terms and conditions of this Agreement may be waived, only by a written instrument signed by the parties or, in the case of a waiver, by the party waiving compliance, and subject, to the extent required, to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court. No delay on the part of any party in exercising any right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any waiver on the part of any party of any right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement, nor will any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement. The rights and remedies provided pursuant to this Agreement are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any party otherwise may have at law or in equity.

 

17.           Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and will not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

 

18.           Specific Performance. The parties acknowledge and agree that any breach of the terms of this Agreement would give rise to irreparable harm for which money damages would not be an adequate remedy, and, accordingly, the parties agree that, in addition to any other remedies, each will be entitled to enforce the terms of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy and without the necessity of posting bond.

          The Company will use the net proceeds from the sale of the ECA Shares for general corporate purposes.

 

          The Final Agreement Order will provide for the release and exculpation of the Investor and the Ultimate Purchasers and their affiliates, representatives and advisors as set forth in Section 5(a) of the ECA.

“Calculated Option Shares” means all shares issued or issuable pursuant to options (not to include options granted to employees, management and directors of the Company, which are addressed below), warrants and convertible or exchangeable securities, and the number of Calculated Option Shares shall be determined by dividing (i) the aggregate Black-Scholes Formula valuation (using the average 100 day trailing volatility for publicly traded mainline carriers including AMR Corporation, US Airways Group, Inc., Continental Airlines, Inc. and UAL Corporation, to the extent that it is publicly traded on the NYSE or NASDAQ at the time of calculation) of all of such options, warrants and convertible or exchangeable securities by (ii) $30.00.

(vi) non-cash non-recurring charges during such period resulting from the Company’s fleet restructuring and professional fees and other direct bankruptcy costs related to the Proceedings; provided, however, that cash payments made in such period or in any future period in respect of such noncash charges (excluding any such charge incurred in the ordinary course of business that constitutes an accrual of or a reserve for cash charges for any future period) shall be subtracted in calculating EBITDARF in the period when such payments are made, and provided further that EBITDARF shall be calculated without giving effect to any acceleration of flight equipment rental expense after the Closing Date required as a result of the Company’s decision to remove an aircraft or aircraft class from the operating fleet of the Company; and
