The Subordination Agent shall establish and maintain the Cash Collateral Accounts pursuant to and under the circumstances set forth in Section 3.06(f). Upon such establishment and maintenance under Section 3.06(f), the Collection Account, the Cash Collateral Accounts and the Policy Accounts shall constitute the "Trust Accounts" hereunder. (b) Funds on deposit in the Trust Accounts shall be invested and reinvested by the Subordination Agent in Eligible Investments selected by Delta or its designated representative if such investments are reasonably available and have maturities no later than the earlier of (i) 90 days following the date of such investment and (ii) the Business Day immediately preceding the Regular Distribution Date or the date of the related distribution pursuant to Section 2.04, as the case may be, next following the date of such investment; provided, however, that, following the making of a Downgrade Drawing or a Non-Extension Drawing under any Liquidity Facility, the Subordination Agent shall invest and reinvest the amounts in the applicable Cash Collateral Account in Eligible Investments pursuant to the written instructions of the Liquidity Provider funding such Drawing, and provided further, however, that upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Triggering Event, the Subordination Agent shall invest and reinvest such amounts (other than amounts in the Cash Collateral Accounts as a result of a Downgrade Drawing or a Non-Extension Drawing, which shall be governed by the foregoing proviso) in Eligible Investments in accordance with the written instructions of the Controlling Party. Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement (including, without limitation, with respect to Investment Earnings on amounts on deposit in the Cash Collateral Accounts, Section 3.06(f)), any Investment Earnings shall be deposited in the Collection Account when received by the Subordination Agent and shall be applied by the Subordination Agent in the same manner as the other amounts on deposit in the Collection Account are to be applied. The Subordination Agent's reasonable fees and expenses actually incurred in making such investments and any losses incurred in such investments shall be charged against the principal amount invested. The Subordination Agent shall not be liable for any loss resulting from any investment, reinvestment or liquidation required to be made under this Agreement other than by reason of its willful misconduct or negligence. Eligible Investments and any other investment required to be made hereunder shall be held to their maturities except that any such investment may be sold (without regard to its maturity) by the Subordination Agent without instructions whenever such sale is necessary to make a distribution required under this Agreement. Uninvested funds held hereunder shall not earn or accrue interest. (c) The Subordination Agent shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Trust Accounts and in all proceeds thereof (including all income thereon, except as otherwise expressly provided herein with respect to Investment Earnings). The Trust Accounts shall be held in trust by the Subordination Agent under the sole dominion and control of the Subordination Agent for the benefit of the Trustees, the Certificateholders, the Liquidity Providers and the Policy Provider, as the case may be. If, at any time, any of the Trust Accounts ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Subordination Agent shall within 10 Business Days (or such longer period, not to exceed 30 calendar days, to which the Policy Provider, the Liquidity Providers and each Rating Agency may consent) establish a new Collection Account, Special Payments Account, Policy Account or Cash Collateral Account, as the case may be, as an Eligible Deposit Account and shall transfer any cash and/or any investments to such new Collection Account, Special Payments Account, Policy Account, Cash Collateral Account, as the case may be. So long as the Subordination Agent is an Eligible Institution, the Trust Accounts shall be maintained with it as Eligible Deposit Accounts. Section 2.03. Deposits to the Collection Account and Special Payments Account; Certain Distributions. (a) The Subordination Agent shall, on each day when one or more Scheduled Payments are made to the Subordination Agent as holder of the Equipment Notes (other than any Scheduled Payment which by the express terms hereof is to be deposited to a Policy Account or a Cash Collateral Account), deposit in the Collection Account the aggregate amount of such Scheduled Payments. (b) The Subordination Agent shall, on each day when one or more Special Payments are made to the Subordination Agent as holder of the Equipment Notes, deposit in the Special Payments Account the aggregate amount of such Special Payments. (c) In the event that a Loan Trustee distributes to the Subordination Agent pursuant to Section 3.04 or clause "first" of Section 3.03 of any Indenture any amounts payable under clauses (b), (c), (d) or (e) of Section 2.14 of any Indenture, the Subordination Agent shall promptly deposit such amounts in the Collection Account. The Subordination Agent will distribute promptly upon receipt thereof (or in the case of any such payment, compensation or reimbursement in respect of the Subordination Agent, will retain) (i) any indemnity payment received by it from Delta in respect of any Trustee, the Subordination Agent, any Liquidity Provider or the Policy Provider (collectively, the "Payees") and (ii) any compensation or reimbursement received by it from Delta or the Loan Trustee under any Operative Agreement in respect of any Payee (including, without limitation, any fees payable to any Liquidity Provider under Section 2.03 of any Liquidity Facility, any premium payable to the Policy Provider under the Policy Provider Agreement or other amounts referred to in clauses (a), (c), (d) or (e) of Section 2.14 of any Indenture), in any such case directly to the Payee entitled thereto, provided that if such Payee has previously received from the Collection Account such payment, compensation or reimbursement, then the Subordination Agent shall deposit such amount in the Collection Account. Section 2.04. Distributions of Special Payments. (a) Notice of Special Payment. Upon receipt by the Subordination Agent, as registered holder of the Equipment Notes, of any notice of a Special Payment (or, in the absence of any such notice, upon receipt by the Subordination Agent of a Special Payment), the Subordination Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to each Trustee, the Liquidity Providers and the Policy Provider. The Subordination Agent shall promptly calculate the amount of the prepayment (including upon Acceleration), redemption or purchase of Equipment Notes or the amount of any Overdue Scheduled Payment, as the case may be, comprising such Special Payment under the applicable Indenture or Indentures and shall promptly send to each Trustee and the Policy Provider a Written Notice of such amount and the amount allocable to each Trust. Such Written Notice shall also set the distribution date for such Special Payment (a "Special Distribution Date"), which shall be the first Business Day that follows the later to occur of (x) the 15th day after the date of such Written Notice or (y) the date the Subordination Agent has received or expects to receive such Special Payment. Amounts on deposit in the Special Payments Account shall be distributed in accordance with Sections 2.04(b) and 2.04(c) hereof, as applicable. (b) Redemptions, Purchases and Prepayments of Equipment Notes.

third, such amount as shall be required (A) if any Cash Collateral Account has been previously funded as provided in Section 3.06(f), to fund such Cash Collateral Account up to its Required Amount shall be deposited in such Cash Collateral Account, (B) if any Liquidity Facility shall have become a Downgraded Facility or a Non-Extended Facility at a time when unreimbursed Interest Drawings under such Liquidity Facility have reduced the Available Amount thereunder to zero, to deposit into the related Cash Collateral Account an amount equal to such Cash Collateral Account's Required Amount shall be deposited in such Cash Collateral Account, (C) if, with respect to any particular Liquidity Facility, neither subclause (A) nor subclause (B) of this clause "third" is applicable, to pay or reimburse the Liquidity Provider in respect of such Liquidity Facility in an amount equal to the amount of any unreimbursed Interest Drawings under such Liquidity Facility shall be distributed to such Liquidity Provider (other than amounts payable pursuant to clause "first" or "second" of this Section 2.04(b) and as determined after giving effect to payments made by the Policy Provider to the Liquidity Provider in respect of principal of drawings under the Liquidity Facilities), pro rata with any amount distributable pursuant to subclause (D) of this clause "third" on the basis of the amount of all such unreimbursed Interest Drawings and unreimbursed Policy Provider Obligations payable to the Policy Provider under subclause (D) of this clause "third" and (D) if the Policy Provider has elected to pay to each Liquidity Provider all outstanding drawings and interest owing to such Liquidity Provider under its Liquidity Facility pursuant to Section 2.06(c) hereof, to reimburse the Policy Provider for the principal amount of such payment made to the Liquidity Providers, shall be distributed to the Policy Provider, but only after giving effect to the application of amounts, if any, under subclause (A) or (B) of this clause "third", and if any amount shall be distributable under subclause (C) of this clause "third", pro rata with any amount distributable pursuant to such subclause (C) on the basis of the amounts of all such unreimbursed Interest Drawings and the amount of such unreimbursed Policy Provider Obligations payable to the Policy Provider under this clause "third"; fourth, if, with respect to any particular Liquidity Facility, any amounts are to be distributed pursuant to either subclause (A) or (B) of clause "third" above, then the Liquidity Provider with respect to such Liquidity Facility shall be paid the excess of (x) the aggregate outstanding amount of unreimbursed Advances (whether or not then due) under such Liquidity Facility over (y) the Required Amount for the relevant Class, pro rata on the basis of such amounts in respect of each Liquidity Provider;

Until the Subordination Agent receives a subsequent Policy Provider Incumbency Certificate, it shall be entitled to rely on the last Policy Provider Incumbency Certificate delivered to it hereunder. Section 2.06. Controlling Party. (a) The Trustees, the Liquidity Providers and the Policy Provider hereby agree that, with respect to any Indenture at any given time, the Loan Trustee thereunder will be directed (i) in taking, or refraining from taking, any action under such Indenture or with respect to the Equipment Notes issued thereunder, so long as no Indenture Event of Default has occurred and is continuing thereunder, by the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding principal amount of such Equipment Notes (provided that, for so long as the Subordination Agent is the registered holder of such Equipment Notes, subject to the provisions of Section 8.01(b), the Subordination Agent shall act with respect to this clause (i) in accordance with the directions of the Trustees of Trusts for which the related Trust Properties include, in the aggregate, such a majority of outstanding principal amount of such Equipment Notes), and (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Indenture Event of Default thereunder (which, in the case of an Indenture pertaining to a Leased Aircraft, has not been cured by the applicable Owner Trustee or Owner Participant, if applicable, pursuant to Section 4.03 of such Indenture), in taking, or refraining from taking, any action under such Indenture or with respect to such Equipment Notes, including exercising remedies thereunder (including Accelerating the Equipment Notes issued thereunder or foreclosing the Lien created thereunder on the Aircraft securing such Equipment Notes), by the Subordination Agent as directed by the Controlling Party. (b) Subject to subparagraph (c) below, the Person who shall be the "Controlling Party" with respect to any Indenture shall be: (x) (i) the Policy Provider until payment of Final Distributions to the holders of Class G-1 Certificates and Class G-2 Certificates and no obligations owing to the Policy Provider hereunder remain outstanding or, (ii) if a Policy Provider Default has occurred and is continuing, (A) the Class G-1 Trustee or the Class G-2 Trustee, whichever represents the Class with the larger Pool Balance of Certificates Outstanding at the time such Indenture Event of Default occurs (whether or not any other Indenture Event of Default shall thereafter occur so long as such initial Indenture Event of Default shall continue); and (B) upon payment of Final Distributions to the holders of Certificates of such larger Class, the other of the Class G-1 Trustee or the Class G-2 Trustee; (y) upon payment of Final Distributions to the holders of Class G-1 Certificates and Class G-2 Certificates and, unless a Policy Provider Default has occurred and is continuing, no obligations owing to the Policy Provider hereunder remain outstanding, the Class C Trustee; and (z) upon payment of Final Distributions to the holders of Class G-1 Certificates, Class G-2 Certificates and Class C Certificates and, unless a Policy Provider Default has occurred and is continuing, no obligations owing to the Policy Provider hereunder remain outstanding, the Class D Trustee. For purposes of giving effect to the foregoing, the Trustees (other than the Controlling Party) irrevocably agree (and the Certificateholders (other than the Certificateholders represented by the Controlling Party) shall be deemed to agree by virtue of their purchase of Certificates) that the Subordination Agent, as record holder of the Equipment Notes, shall exercise its voting rights in respect of the Equipment Notes as directed by the Controlling Party and any vote so exercised shall be binding upon the Trustees and all Certificateholders. The Subordination Agent shall give written notice to all of the other parties to this Agreement promptly upon a change in the identity of the Controlling Party. Each of the parties hereto agrees that it shall not exercise any of the rights of the Controlling Party at such time as it is not the Controlling Party hereunder; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall prevent or prohibit any Non-Controlling Party from exercising such rights as shall be specifically granted to such Non-Controlling Party hereunder and under the other Operative Agreements. (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time after 18 months from the earliest to occur of (i) the date on which the entire Available Amount under any Liquidity Facility shall have been drawn (for any reason other than a Downgrade Drawing or a Non-Extension Drawing) and remain unreimbursed, (ii) the date on which the entire amount of any Downgrade Drawing or Non-Extension Drawing under any Liquidity Facility shall have become and remain "Applied Downgrade Advances" or "Applied Non-Extension Advances", as the case may be, under and as defined in such Liquidity Facility and (iii) the date on which all Equipment Notes shall have been Accelerated, the Liquidity Provider with the greatest amount of unreimbursed Liquidity Obligations (the "Eligible Liquidity Provider") shall have the right to elect, by Written Notice to the Subordination Agent, the Policy Provider and each of the Trustees, to become the Controlling Party hereunder with respect to any Indenture at any time from and including the last day of such 18-month period, provided that if, within 15 Business Days after its receipt of any such Written Notice from such Eligible Liquidity Provider (which notice may be given on or after the fifteenth Business Day prior to the end of such 18-month period) the Policy Provider pays to each Liquidity Provider all outstanding drawings owing to such Liquidity Provider in respect of its Liquidity Facility, and interest accrued thereon to such date, the Policy Provider shall remain the Controlling Party so long as no Policy Provider Default has occurred and is continuing; and if a Policy Provider Default has occurred and is continuing, the Eligible Liquidity Provider, if it so elects and if Liquidity Obligations owing to it remain outstanding, shall become the Controlling Party. At any time after such 18-month period, if a Policy Provider Default has occurred and is continuing and the Eligible Liquidity Provider does not elect to be the Controlling Party or if no Liquidity Obligations remain outstanding, then the Class G-1 Trustee or Class G-2 Trustee, as specified in subparagraph (b) above, shall become the Controlling Party. (d) The exercise of remedies by the Controlling Party under this Agreement shall be expressly limited by Section 4.01(a)(ii). (e) The Controlling Party shall not be entitled to require or obligate any Non-Controlling Party to provide funds necessary to exercise any right or remedy hereunder. (f) Notwithstanding anything contained herein, neither the Controlling Party nor the Subordination Agent shall be authorized or empowered to do anything that would cause any Trust to fail to qualify as a "grantor trust" for federal income tax purposes.

(c) Downgrade Drawings. The Liquidity Provider will promptly, but in any event within ten days of its receipt of notice thereof, deliver notice of any downgrading of its debt ratings to the Subordination Agent, the Policy Provider, and Delta. If at any time the short-term unsecured debt rating of any Liquidity Provider issued by Moody's or the short-term corporate credit rating of such Liquidity Provider issued by S&P (or if such Liquidity Provider does not have a short-term unsecured debt rating or short-term corporate credit rating, as applicable, issued by Moody's or S&P, the long-term unsecured debt rating or long-term corporate credit rating of such Liquidity Provider issued by such Rating Agency) is lower than the applicable Threshold Rating, within 10 days after such downgrading (or within 45 days of such downgrading solely in the event of a downgrading of such Liquidity Provider's short-term corporate credit rating by S&P from A-1+ to A-1) (but not later than the expiration date of the Liquidity Facility issued by such downgraded Liquidity Provider (the "Downgraded Facility")), such Liquidity Provider or Delta may arrange for a Replacement Liquidity Provider to issue and deliver a Replacement Liquidity Facility to the Subordination Agent. If a Downgraded Facility has not been replaced in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the Subordination Agent shall, on such 10th (or 45th) day (or if such 10th (or 45th) day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day) (or, if earlier, on the expiration date of such Downgraded Facility), request a drawing in accordance with and to the extent permitted by such Downgraded Facility (such drawing, a "Downgrade Drawing") of all available and undrawn amounts thereunder. Amounts drawn pursuant to a Downgrade Drawing shall be maintained and invested as provided in Section 3.06(f). Subject to Section 3.06(e)(iii), the Liquidity Provider may also arrange for a Replacement Liquidity Provider to issue and deliver a Replacement Liquidity Facility at any time after such Downgrade Drawing so long as such Downgrade Drawing has not been reimbursed in full to the Liquidity Provider. (d) Non-Extension Drawings. If any Liquidity Facility with respect to any Class of Certificates is scheduled to expire on a date (the "Stated Expiration Date") prior to the date that is 15 days after the Final Legal Distribution Date for such Class of Certificates, then no earlier than the 60th day and no later than the 40th day prior to the then applicable Stated Expiration Date, the Subordination Agent shall request in writing that such Liquidity Provider extend the Stated Expiration Date to the earlier of (i) the date that is 15 days after the Final Legal Distribution Date for such Class of Certificates and (ii) the date that is the day immediately preceding the 364th day after the last day of the Consent Period (unless the obligations of such Liquidity Provider thereunder are earlier terminated in accordance with such Liquidity Facility). The Liquidity Provider shall by notice (the "Consent Notice") to the Subordination Agent, during the period commencing on the date that is 60 days prior to the then effective Stated Expiration Date and ending on the date that is 25 days prior to such Stated Expiration Date (the "Consent Period") advise the Subordination Agent whether, in its sole discretion, it agrees to so extend the Stated Expiration Date; provided, however, that such extension shall not be effective with respect to such Liquidity Provider if, by notice (the "Withdrawal Notice") to the Subordination Agent prior to the end of the Consent Period, the Liquidity Provider revokes the Consent Notice. If the Liquidity Provider advises the Subordination Agent in the Consent Notice that such Stated Expiration Date shall not be so extended, gives a Withdrawal Notice to the Subordination Agent prior to the end of the Consent Period, or fails to irrevocably and unconditionally advise the Subordination Agent on or before the end of the Consent Period that such Stated Expiration Date shall be so extended (and, in each case, if the Liquidity Provider shall not have been replaced in accordance with Section 3.06(e)), the Subordination Agent shall, on the date on which the Consent Period ends (or as soon as possible thereafter but prior to the Stated Expiration Date), in accordance with and to the extent permitted by the terms of the expiring Liquidity Facility (a "Non-Extended Facility"), request a drawing under such expiring Liquidity Facility (such drawing, a "Non-Extension Drawing") of all available and undrawn amounts thereunder. Amounts drawn pursuant to a Non-Extension Drawing shall be maintained and invested in accordance with Section 3.06(f). If any amounts shall be drawn pursuant to a Non-Extension Drawing and, within 30 days thereafter, the Liquidity Provider shall not have been replaced, then at any time following the 30th day after such Non-Extension Drawing, the Liquidity Provider may, by written notice to the Subordination Agent, agree to reinstate the Liquidity Facility on the terms of the existing Liquidity Facility for a period ending on the 364th day after the end of the Consent Period; provided, however, that in such event the Liquidity Provider shall reimburse the Subordination Agent for any costs actually incurred by or on behalf of the Subordination Agent in drawing pursuant to the Non-Extension Drawing and funding the Cash Collateral Account or otherwise in connection with the Non-Extension Drawing. (e) Issuance of Replacement Liquidity Facility. (i) Subject to Section 3.06(e)(iii), at any time, Delta may, at its option, with cause or without cause, arrange for a Replacement Liquidity Facility to replace any Liquidity Facility for any Class of Certificates (including any Replacement Liquidity Facility provided pursuant to Section 3.06(e)(ii)); provided, however, that if the initial Liquidity Provider is replaced it shall be replaced with respect to all Liquidity Facilities under which it is a Liquidity Provider, and provided further, however, that the initial Liquidity Provider shall not be replaced by Delta as the Liquidity Provider with respect to any Class of Certificates prior to the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date unless (A) there shall have become due to the initial Liquidity Provider, or the initial Liquidity Provider shall have demanded, amounts pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.03 of any Liquidity Facility and the replacement of the initial Liquidity Provider would reduce or eliminate the obligation to pay such amounts or Delta determines in good faith that there is a substantial likelihood that the initial Liquidity Provider will have the right to claim any such amounts within 180 days after the date of such determination (unless the initial Liquidity Provider waives, in writing, any right it may have to claim such amounts), which determination shall be set forth in a certificate delivered by Delta to the initial Liquidity Provider accompanied by an opinion of outside counsel selected by Delta and reasonably acceptable to such initial Liquidity Provider verifying the legal conclusions, if any, of such certificate relating to such basis, provided that in the case of any likely claim for amounts based upon any proposed, or proposed change in, law, rule, regulation, interpretation, directive, requirement, request or administrative practice, such opinion may assume the adoption or promulgation of such proposed matter, (B) it shall become unlawful or impossible for the initial Liquidity Provider to maintain or fund its LIBOR Advances as described in Section 3.10 of any Liquidity Facility, (C) the short-term corporate credit rating of the initial Liquidity Provider is downgraded by S&P from A-1+ to A-1 and there is a resulting downgrade in the rating by either Rating Agency of any Class of Certificates (without regard to the related Policy in the case of the Class G-1 Certificates and Class G-2 Certificates), (D) any Liquidity Facility of such initial Liquidity Provider shall become a Downgraded Facility or a Non-Extended Facility or a Downgrade Drawing or a Non-Extension Drawing shall have occurred under any Liquidity Facility or (E) the initial Liquidity Provider shall have breached any of its payment (including, without limitation, funding) obligations under any Liquidity Facility. If such Replacement Liquidity Facility is provided at any time after a Downgrade Drawing or a Non-Extension Drawing has been made, all funds on deposit in the relevant Cash Collateral Account resulting from such Downgrade Drawing or Non-Extension Drawing will be returned to the Liquidity Provider being replaced. (ii) If any Liquidity Provider shall determine not to extend its Liquidity Facility in accordance with Section 3.06(d), then such Liquidity Provider may, at its option, arrange for a Replacement Liquidity Facility to replace such Liquidity Facility during the period no earlier than 40 days and no later than 25 days prior to the then effective Stated Expiration Date of such Liquidity Facility. (iii) No Replacement Liquidity Facility arranged by Delta or a Liquidity Provider in accordance with Section 3.06(c) or clause (i) or (ii) of this Section 3.06(e) shall become effective and no such Replacement Liquidity Facility shall be deemed a "Liquidity Facility" under the Operative Agreements, unless and until (A) each of the conditions referred to in Section 3.06(e)(iv) below shall have been satisfied and (B) in the case of a Replacement Liquidity Facility arranged by a Liquidity Provider under Section 3.06(c) or Section 3.06(e)(ii), such Replacement Liquidity Provider and such Replacement Liquidity Facility (including the fees, compensation, interest, increased costs or withholding payable thereunder to the Replacement Liquidity Provider) are reasonably acceptable to Delta. (iv) In connection with the issuance of each Replacement Liquidity Facility, the Subordination Agent shall (x) prior to the issuance of such Replacement Liquidity Facility, obtain written confirmation from each Rating Agency that such Replacement Liquidity Facility will not cause a reduction of any rating then in effect for any Class of Certificates by such Rating Agency (without regard to any downgrading of any rating of any Liquidity Provider being replaced pursuant to Section 3.06(c) and without regard to any Policy), and in the case of the Class G-1 Liquidity Facility or the Class G-2 Liquidity Facility, the written consent of the Policy Provider (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (y) pay all Liquidity Obligations then owing to the replaced Liquidity Provider (which payment shall be made first from available funds in the applicable Cash Collateral Account as described in Section 3.06(f)(ix), and thereafter from any other available source, including, without limitation, a drawing under the Replacement Liquidity Facility) and (z) cause the issuer of the Replacement Liquidity Facility to deliver the Replacement Liquidity Facility to the Subordination Agent, together with a legal opinion addressed to the Subordination Agent, the Policy Provider, the Trustees and Delta opining that such Replacement Liquidity Facility is an enforceable obligation of such Replacement Liquidity Provider. (v) Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 3.06(e)(iii) and 3.06(e)(iv), (1) the replaced Liquidity Facility shall terminate, (2) the Subordination Agent shall, if and to the extent so requested by Delta or the Liquidity Provider being replaced, execute and deliver any certificate or other instrument required in order to terminate the replaced Liquidity Facility, shall surrender the replaced Liquidity Facility to the Liquidity Provider being replaced and shall execute and deliver the Replacement Liquidity Facility and any associated Fee Letter, (3) each of the parties hereto shall enter into any amendments to this Agreement necessary to give effect to the replacement of the applicable Liquidity Provider with the applicable Replacement Liquidity Provider and the replacement of the applicable Liquidity Facility with the applicable Replacement Liquidity Facility and (4) the applicable Replacement Liquidity Provider shall be deemed to be a Liquidity Provider with the rights and obligations of a Liquidity Provider hereunder and under the other Operative Agreements and such Replacement Liquidity Facility shall be deemed to be a Liquidity Facility hereunder and under the other Operative Agreements. (f) Cash Collateral Accounts; Withdrawals; Investments. If the Subordination Agent shall draw all available amounts under the Class G-1 Liquidity Facility, the Class G-2 Liquidity Facility, or the Class C Liquidity Facility pursuant to Section 3.06(c), 3.06(d) or 3.06(i), or in the event amounts are to be deposited in the Cash Collateral Account pursuant to subclause (A) or (B) of clause "third" of Section 2.04(b), subclause (A) or (B) of clause "third" of Section 3.02 or subclause (A) or (B) of clause "fourth" of Section 3.03, amounts so drawn or to be deposited, as the case may be, shall be deposited by the Subordination Agent in the Class G-1 Cash Collateral Account, the Class G-2 Cash Collateral Account or the Class C Cash Collateral Account, respectively. All amounts on deposit in each Cash Collateral Account shall be invested and reinvested in Eligible Investments in accordance with Section 2.02(b). On each Interest Payment Date (or, in the case of any Special Distribution Date occurring prior to the occurrence of a Triggering Event, on such Special Distribution Date), Investment Earnings on amounts on deposit in each Cash Collateral Account (or in the case of any Special Distribution Date occurring prior to the occurrence of a Triggering Event, an amount of such Investment Earnings on amounts of deposits in each Cash Collateral Account equal to the product of such Investment Earnings multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Equipment Notes being redeemed, purchased or prepaid on such Special Distribution Date and the denominator of which is the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Equipment Notes) shall be deposited in the Collection Account (or, in the case of any Special Distribution Date occurring prior to the occurrence of a Triggering Event, the Special Payments Account) and applied on such Interest Payment Date (or Special Distribution Date, as the case may be) in accordance with Section 2.04(b), 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04(b) (as applicable).

(v) on each date on which the Pool Balance of the Class G-2 Trust shall have been reduced by payments made to the Class G-2 Certificateholders pursuant to Section 2.04(b), 3.02 or 3.03, the Subordination Agent shall withdraw from the Class G-2 Cash Collateral Account such amount as is necessary so that, after giving effect to the reduction of such Pool Balance on such date (including any such reduction resulting from a prior withdrawal of amounts on deposit in the Class G-2 Cash Collateral Account on such date) and any transfer of Investment Earnings from such Class G-2 Cash Collateral Account to the Collection Account or the Special Payments Account on such date, an amount equal to the sum of the Required Amount (with respect to the Class G-2 Liquidity Facility) plus the remaining Investment Earnings on deposit in such Class G-2 Cash Collateral Account (if any) will be on deposit in the Class G-2 Cash Collateral Account and shall, first, pay such withdrawn amount to the relevant Class G-2 Liquidity Provider until the Liquidity Obligations (with respect to the Class G-2 Certificates) owing to such Class G-2 Liquidity Provider shall have been paid in full and, second, deposit any remaining amount in the Collection Account;

(vii) if a Replacement Liquidity Facility for any Class of Certificates shall be delivered to the Subordination Agent following the date on which funds have been deposited into the Cash Collateral Account for such Class of Certificates, the Subordination Agent shall withdraw all amounts remaining on deposit in such Cash Collateral Account and shall pay such amounts to the replaced Liquidity Provider until all Liquidity Obligations owed to such Person shall have been paid in full, and deposit any remaining amount in the Collection Account; and (viii) following the payment of Final Distributions with respect to any Class of Certificates, on the date on which the Subordination Agent shall have been notified by the Liquidity Provider for such Class of Certificates that the Liquidity Obligations owed to such Liquidity Provider have been paid in full, the Subordination Agent shall withdraw all amounts on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account in respect of such Class of Certificates and deposit such amount in the Collection Account. (g) Reinstatement. With respect to any Interest Drawing under the Liquidity Facility for any Trust, upon the reimbursement of the applicable Liquidity Provider for all or any part of the amount of such Interest Drawing, together with any accrued interest thereon, the Available Amount of such Liquidity Facility shall be reinstated by an amount equal to the amount of such Interest Drawing so reimbursed to the applicable Liquidity Provider but not to exceed the Stated Amount for such Liquidity Facility; provided, however, that the Available Amount of such Liquidity Facility shall not be so reinstated in part or in full at any time if (x) both a Performing Note Deficiency exists and a Liquidity Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the relevant Liquidity Facility or (y) a Final Drawing shall have occurred with respect to such Liquidity Facility. In the event that, with respect to any particular Liquidity Facility, (i) funds are withdrawn from any Cash Collateral Account pursuant to clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of Section 3.06(f) or (ii) such Liquidity Facility shall become a Downgraded Facility or a Non-Extended Facility at a time when unreimbursed Interest Drawings under such Liquidity Facility have reduced the Available Amount thereunder to zero, then funds received by the Subordination Agent at any time, other than (x) any time when both a Performing Note Deficiency exists and a Liquidity Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to such Liquidity Facility or (y) any time after a Final Drawing shall have occurred with respect to such Liquidity Facility, shall be deposited in such Cash Collateral Account as and to the extent provided in clause "third" of Section 2.04(b), clause "third" of Section 3.02 or clause "fourth" of Section 3.03, as applicable, and applied in accordance with Section 3.06(f).

The amount of each drawing under the Liquidity Facilities shall be due and payable, together with interest thereon, on the dates and at the rates, respectively, provided in the Liquidity Facilities. (i) Final Drawing. Upon receipt from a Liquidity Provider of a Termination Notice with respect to any Liquidity Facility, the Subordination Agent shall, not later than the date specified in such Termination Notice, in accordance with and to the extent permitted by the terms of such Liquidity Facility, request a drawing under such Liquidity Facility of all available and undrawn amounts thereunder (a "Final Drawing"). Amounts drawn pursuant to a Final Drawing shall be maintained and invested in accordance with Section 3.06(f). (j) Reduction of Stated Amount. Promptly following each date on which the Required Amount of the Liquidity Facility for a Class of Certificates is reduced as a result of a reduction in the Pool Balance with respect to such Certificates, the Subordination Agent shall, if any such Liquidity Facility provides for reductions of the Stated Amount of such Liquidity Facility and if such reductions are not automatic, request such Liquidity Provider for such Class of Certificates to reduce such Stated Amount to an amount equal to the Required Amount with respect to such Liquidity Facility (as calculated by the Subordination Agent after giving effect to such payment). Each such request shall be made in accordance with the provisions of the applicable Liquidity Facility. (k) Relation to Subordination Provisions. Interest Drawings under the Liquidity Facilities and withdrawals from the Cash Collateral Accounts, in each case, in respect of interest on the Certificates of any Class, will be distributed to the Trustee for such Class of Certificates, notwithstanding Sections 2.04(b), 3.02, 3.03 and 3.06. (l) Assignment of Liquidity Facility. The Subordination Agent agrees not to consent to the assignment by any Liquidity Provider of any of its rights or obligations under any Liquidity Facility or any interest therein unless (i) Delta shall have consented to such assignment and (ii) each Rating Agency shall have provided a Ratings Confirmation in respect of such assignment; provided that the Subordination Agent shall consent to such assignment if the conditions in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) are satisfied. Section 3.07. The Policies. The following provisions of paragraphs (a) through (i) of this Section 3.07 shall apply to (i) the Class G-1 Trust and the Class G-1 Certificates and (ii) the Class G-2 Trust and the Class G-2 Certificates, as if such provisions are separately set forth in full for each of the Class G-1 Trust (and the Class G-1 Certificates) and the Class G-2 Trust (and the Class G-2 Certificates).

(a) Interest Drawings. If on any Regular Distribution Date (other than the Final Legal Distribution Date) after giving effect to the application of available funds in accordance with the priorities specified in Section 2.04 and Article III, and taking into account the application of any Drawing paid under the Class G Liquidity Facility in respect of accrued interest and any withdrawal of funds from the Class G Cash Collateral Account in respect of such interest, the Subordination Agent does not then have sufficient funds available for the payment of Accrued Class G Interest, then, prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Distribution Date, the Subordination Agent (i) shall deliver a Notice of Nonpayment, as provided in the Policy to the Policy Provider or its fiscal agent, requesting a Policy Drawing under the Policy (for payment into the Policy Account) in an amount sufficient to enable the Subordination Agent to pay such Accrued Class G Interest and (ii) shall pay such amount from the Policy Account to the Class G Trustee in payment of such Accrued Class G Interest on such Distribution Date. (b) Proceeds Deficiency Drawing. If on any Special Distribution Date (other than a Special Distribution Date established pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 3.07(c)) established by the Subordination Agent by reason of its receipt of a Special Payment (a "Disposition Payment") constituting the proceeds of any Series G Equipment Note or related Collateral or Indenture Estate, as the case may be, there exists a shortfall in the amounts available to the Subordination Agent (after giving effect to the application of available funds (including, without limitation, the amount of such Disposition Payment) in accordance with the priorities specified in Section 2.04 and Article III, and (if the disposition of such Series G Equipment Note or related Collateral or Indenture Estate occurs prior to a Policy Provider Election with respect to such Series G Equipment Note) taking into account the application of any Drawing paid under the Class G Liquidity Facility in respect of such interest, any withdrawal of funds in the Class G Collateral Account in respect of such interest) required to reduce the outstanding Pool Balance of the Class G Certificates by an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of the applicable Series G Equipment Note (determined immediately prior to the receipt of such Disposition Payment and less the amount of any Policy Drawing previously paid by the Policy Provider in respect of principal of such Series G Equipment Note) plus accrued and unpaid interest on the amount of such reduction accrued at the Stated Interest Rate for the Class G Certificates for the period from the immediately preceding Regular Distribution Date to such Special Distribution Date, then, prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Special Distribution Date, the Subordination Agent (x) shall deliver a Notice of Nonpayment, as provided in the Policy (for payment into the Policy Account) in an amount equal to the amount of such shortfall and (y) shall pay such amount from the Policy Account to the Class G Trustee in payment of such reduction in the outstanding Pool Balance of the Class G Certificates plus such accrued and unpaid interest on such Special Distribution Date. The Subordination Agent shall promptly, but not less than 20 days prior to the Special Distribution Date established pursuant to this Section 3.07(b), send to Delta, the Trustees, the Liquidity Provider for the Class G Liquidity Facility and the Policy Provider, a Written Notice of such Special Distribution Date. (c) No Proceeds Drawing. On the first Business Day that is 18 months after the last date on which full payment was made on any Series G Equipment Note (a "Defaulted Series G Equipment Note") as to which there has subsequently been a failure to pay principal or that has subsequently been accelerated, if the Subordination Agent has not theretofore made a drawing under the Policy pursuant to Section 3.07(b), the Subordination Agent shall deliver a Notice of Nonpayment, as provided in the Policy, to the Policy Provider or its fiscal agent, requesting a Policy Drawing under the Policy (for payment into the Policy Account) in an amount equal to the then outstanding principal amount of such Defaulted Series G Equipment Note plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon from the immediately preceding Regular Distribution Date. The Subordination Agent shall promptly, but not less than 25 days prior to the such Business Day, send to Delta, the Trustees, the Liquidity Provider for the Class G Liquidity Facility and the Policy Provider a Written Notice establishing such Business Day as the date for the distribution of the proceeds of such Policy Drawing, which date shall constitute a Special Distribution Date. No later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the specified Special Distribution Date the Subordination Agent shall make the specified Policy Drawing and upon its receipt of the proceeds thereof pay the amount thereof from the Policy Account to the Class G Trustee in reduction of the outstanding Pool Balance of the Class G Certificates together with such accrued and unpaid interest on the amount of such reduction. For the avoidance of doubt, after the payment by the Policy Provider in full of such amount under this Section 3.07(c), the Subordination Agent shall have no right to make any further Policy Drawings under Section 3.07(c) in respect of such Defaulted Series G Equipment Note except for a drawing under Section 3.07(e). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Policy Provider has the right, so long as no Policy Provider Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon notice to the Subordination Agent given at least five days prior to the Special Distribution Date established by the Subordination Agent pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 3.07(c), to elect instead (the "Policy Provider Election") to pay (i) on such Special Distribution Date an amount equal to the scheduled principal and interest that came due on such Defaulted Series G Equipment Note (without regard to the acceleration thereof) but was not paid during such 18-month period (after giving effect to the application of funds received from the Class G Liquidity Facility and the Class G Cash Collateral Account, in each case attributable to such interest) and (ii) thereafter, on each Regular Distribution Date, an amount equal to the scheduled principal and interest that were to become due on such Defaulted Series G Equipment Note on the related payment date (without regard to any acceleration thereof or to any funds available under any Liquidity Facility or any Cash Collateral Account) until the establishment of an Election Distribution Date or a Special Distribution Date established as provided in the immediately following sentence. Following a Policy Provider Election with respect to a Defaulted Series G Equipment Note, on any Business Day (which shall be a Special Distribution Date) elected by the Policy Provider upon 20 days' Written Notice to the Subordination Agent and the Class G Trustee, the Policy Provider may, notwithstanding the Policy Provider Election, request the Subordination Agent to, and the Subordination Agent shall, make a Policy Drawing for an amount equal to the then outstanding principal balance of such Defaulted Series G Equipment Note (less any Policy Drawings previously paid by the Policy Provider in respect of principal of such Defaulted Series G Equipment Note) and accrued and unpaid interest on such amounts at the Stated Interest Rate for the Class G Certificates from the previous Regular Distribution Date to such Special Distribution Date. Further, following a Policy Provider Election with respect to a Defaulted Series G Equipment Note, upon the occurrence and continuance of a Policy Provider Default, the Subordination Agent shall on any Business Day (an "Election Distribution Date", which shall be a Special Distribution Date) elected by the Subordination Agent upon 20 days' Written Notice to the Class G Trustee and the Policy Provider, make a Policy Drawing for an amount equal to the then outstanding principal balance of such Defaulted Series G Equipment Note (less any Policy Drawings previously paid by the Policy Provider in respect of principal of such Equipment Note) and accrued and unpaid interest on such amounts at the Stated Interest Rate for the Class G Certificates from the immediately preceding Regular Distribution Date to such Election Distribution Date. The Subordination Agent shall make each such Policy Drawing referred to in this subparagraph (c) under the Policy (for payment into the Policy Account) no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the relevant Special Distribution Date and upon its receipt of the proceeds thereof pay the amount thereof from the Policy Account to the Class G Trustee in reduction of the outstanding Pool Balance of the Class G Certificates together with such accrued and unpaid interest thereon. In addition, regardless of whether or not the Policy Provider makes a Policy Provider Election, the Policy Provider shall, at the end of the first occurring 18-month period described in Section 3.07(c), endorse the Policy (if not already endorsed to so provide) to provide for the payment to the Liquidity Providers of interest accruing on the outstanding drawings in respect of the Liquidity Facilities from and after the end of such 18-month period as and when such interest becomes due in accordance with such Liquidity Facilities. The Policy Provider hereby agrees not to otherwise amend or modify the Policy without the consent of the Liquidity Provider if such amendment or modification would adversely affect the rights of the Liquidity Provider. (d) Final Policy Drawing. If on the Final Legal Distribution Date of the Class G Certificates after giving effect to the application of available funds in accordance with the priorities specified in Section 2.04 and Article III, and taking into account the application of any Drawing paid under the Class G Liquidity Facility in respect of interest included in the Final Distribution and any withdrawal of funds in the Class G Cash Collateral Account in respect of interest included in the Final Distribution, the Subordination Agent does not then have sufficient funds available on such date for the payment in full of the Final Distribution (calculated as at such date but excluding any accrued and unpaid premium) on the Class G Certificates then, prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such date, the Subordination Agent shall: (i) deliver a Notice of Nonpayment, as provided in the Policy, to the Policy Provider or its fiscal agent, requesting a Policy Drawing under the Policy (for payment into the Policy Account) in an amount equal to the minimum amount sufficient to enable the Subordination Agent to pay the Final Distribution (calculated as at such date but excluding any accrued and unpaid premium) on the Class G Certificates, and (ii) shall pay such amount from the Policy Account to the Class G Trustee in payment of such amount on such date. (e) Avoidance Drawings. If at any time the Subordination Agent shall have actual knowledge of the issuance of any Final Order, the Subordination Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to Delta, each Trustee, the Liquidity Providers and the Policy Provider. The Subordination Agent shall thereupon calculate the relevant Avoided Payments resulting therefrom and shall promptly: (a) send to the Class G Trustee a Written Notice of such amount and (b) deliver to the Policy Provider, or its fiscal agent, a Notice of Avoided Payment, together with a copy of the documentation required by the Policy with respect thereto, requesting a Policy Drawing (for payment to the receiver, conservator, debtor-in-possession or trustee in bankruptcy and/or the Subordination Agent for deposit into the Policy Account) in an amount equal to the amount of relevant Avoided Payment. Such Written Notice shall also set the date for the distribution of the proceeds of such Policy Drawing, which date shall constitute a Special Distribution Date and shall be the earlier of the third Business Day that immediately precedes the expiration of the Policy and the Business Day that immediately follows the 25th day after the date of such Written Notice. No later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the specified Special Distribution Date, the Subordination Agent shall make the specified Policy Drawing and, upon its receipt of the proceeds thereof, pay the amount thereof from the Policy Account to the Class G Trustee in reinstatement of the Avoided Payment. (f) Application of Policy Drawings. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 2.04, 3.02 and 3.03 hereof), all payments received by the Subordination Agent in respect of a Policy Drawing shall be promptly paid from the Policy Account to the Class G Trustee for distribution to the Class G Certificateholders. (g) Reduction of Outstanding Pool Balance. Promptly following each date on which the Pool Balance of the Class G Certificates is reduced as a result of a payment under this Agreement, the Subordination Agent shall inform the Policy Provider of such reduction. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) no Policy Drawing for payment in respect of the Class G Certificates under clause (a) of this Section 3.07 shall be in excess of Accrued Class G Interest and (ii) no Policy Drawing under clauses (b)-(d) of this Section 3.07 shall be for an amount in excess of the outstanding Pool Balance of the Class G Certificates plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the Stated Interest Rate for the Class G Certificates. Nothing contained in this Intercreditor Agreement shall be deemed to alter or amend the liabilities, obligations, requirements or procedures of the Policy Provider under the Policy and the Policy Provider shall not be obligated to make payment except at the times and in the amounts and under the circumstances expressly set forth in the Policy. (h) Resubmission of Notice of Payment. If the Policy Provider at any time informs the Subordination Agent in accordance with the Policy that a Notice of Nonpayment or Notice of Avoided Payment submitted by the Subordination Agent does not satisfy the requirements of the Policy, the Subordination Agent shall, as promptly as possible after being so informed, submit to the Policy Provider an amended and revised Notice of Nonpayment or Notice of Avoided Payment, as the case may be, and shall pay to the Class G Trustee out of the Policy Account the amount received pursuant to such amended or revised Notice of Nonpayment or Notice of Avoided Payment, as the case may be, when received. (i) Subrogation. The Policy Provider will be subrogated to all of the rights of the holders of the Class G Certificates to payment on the Class G Certificates to the extent of the payments made under the Policy as set forth herein, the exercise of such subrogation right to be subject to the other provisions of this Agreement. ARTICLE IV EXERCISE OF REMEDIES Section 4.01. Directions from the Controlling Party. (a) (i) Following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Indenture Event of Default under any Indenture, the Controlling Party shall direct the Subordination Agent, which in turn shall direct the Loan Trustee under such Indenture, in the exercise of remedies available to the holders of the Equipment Notes issued pursuant to such Indenture, including, without limitation, the ability to vote all such Equipment Notes in favor of Accelerating such Equipment Notes in accordance with the provisions of such Indenture. Subject to the Owner Trustees' and the Owner Participants' rights set-forth in the Indentures with respect to Leased Aircraft to purchase the Equipment Notes, if the Equipment Notes issued pursuant to any Indenture have been Accelerated following an Indenture Event of Default with respect thereto, the Controlling Party may direct the Subordination Agent to sell, assign, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of and deliver all (but not less than all) of such Equipment Notes to any Person at public or private sale, at any location at the option of the Controlling Party, all upon such terms and conditions as it may reasonably deem advisable and in accordance with applicable law. (ii) Subject to the Owner Trustees' and the Owner Participants' rights set-forth in the Indentures with respect to Leased Aircraft to purchase the Equipment Notes, and notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as any Certificates remain Outstanding, during the period ending on the date which is nine months after the earlier of (x) the Acceleration of the Equipment Notes issued pursuant to any Indenture or (y) the occurrence of a Delta Bankruptcy Event, without the consent of each Trustee (other than the Trustee of any Trust all of the Certificates of which are held or beneficially owned by Delta and/or its Affiliates), (A) no Aircraft subject to the Lien of such Indenture or such Equipment Notes may be sold if the net proceeds from such sale would be less than the Minimum Sale Price for such Aircraft or such Equipment Notes and (B) with respect to any Leased Aircraft, the amount and payment dates of rentals payable by Delta under the Lease for such Aircraft may not be adjusted, if, as a result of such adjustment, the discounted present value of all such rentals would be less than 75% of the discounted present value of the rentals payable by Delta under such Lease before giving effect to such adjustment, in each case, using the weighted average interest rate of the Equipment Notes issued pursuant to such Indenture as the discount rate. (iii) At the request of the Controlling Party, the Subordination Agent may from time to time during the continuance of an Indenture Event of Default (and before the occurrence of a Triggering Event) commission an LTV Appraisal with respect to the Aircraft subject to such Indenture. (iv) After a Triggering Event occurs and any Equipment Note becomes a Non-Performing Equipment Note, the Subordination Agent shall obtain Appraisals with respect to all of the Aircraft (the "LTV Appraisals") as soon as practicable and additional LTV Appraisals on or prior to each anniversary of the date of such initial LTV Appraisals; provided that, if the Controlling Party reasonably objects to the appraised value of the Aircraft shown in such LTV Appraisals, the Controlling Party shall have the right to obtain or cause to be obtained substitute LTV Appraisals (including any LTV Appraisals based upon physical inspection of the Aircraft). (b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Subordination Agent, at the direction of the Controlling Party, shall take such actions as it may reasonably deem most effectual to complete the sale or other disposition of such Aircraft or Equipment Notes. In addition, in lieu of any sale, assignment, contract to sell or other disposition, if the Subordination Agent is so directed by the Controlling Party, the Subordination Agent may maintain possession of such Equipment Notes and continue to apply monies received in respect of such Equipment Notes in accordance with Section 2.04(b) and Article III. In addition, in lieu of such sale, assignment, contract to sell or other disposition, or in lieu of such maintenance of possession, the Controlling Party may direct the Subordination Agent to, subject to the terms and conditions of the related Indenture, instruct the Loan Trustee under such Indenture to foreclose on the Lien on the related Aircraft or take any other remedial action permitted by such Indenture or applicable law. Section 4.02. Remedies Cumulative. Each and every right, power and remedy given to the Trustees, the Liquidity Providers, the Policy Provider, the Controlling Party or the Subordination Agent specifically or otherwise in this Agreement shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other right, power and remedy herein specifically given or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute, and each and every right, power and remedy whether specifically herein given or otherwise existing may, subject always to the terms and conditions hereof, be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by any Trustee, any Liquidity Provider, the Policy Provider, the Controlling Party or the Subordination Agent, as appropriate, and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of any right, power or remedy shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right to exercise at the same time or thereafter any other right, power or remedy. No delay or omission by any Trustee, any Liquidity Provider, the Policy Provider, the Controlling Party or the Subordination Agent in the exercise of any right, remedy or power or in the pursuit of any remedy shall impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any default or to be an acquiescence therein. Section 4.03. Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case any party to this Agreement (including the Controlling Party in such capacity) shall have instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Agreement by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such Proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Person instituting such Proceeding, then and in every such case each such party shall, subject to any determination in such Proceeding, be restored to its former position and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of such party shall continue as if no such Proceeding had been instituted. Section 4.04. Right of Certificateholders to Receive Payments Not to Be Impaired. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and each Trust Agreement, the right of any Certificateholder or any Liquidity Provider or the Policy Provider, respectively, to receive payments hereunder (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 2.04, 3.02 or 3.03) when due, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the applicable Distribution Date, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Certificateholder, such Liquidity Provider or the Policy Provider, respectively. ARTICLE V DUTIES OF THE SUBORDINATION AGENT; AGREEMENTS OF TRUSTEES, ETC. Section 5.01. Notice of Indenture Event of Default or Triggering Event. (a) If the Subordination Agent shall have knowledge of an Indenture Event of Default or a Triggering Event, as promptly as possible and in any event within ten days after obtaining actual knowledge thereof, the Subordination Agent shall give notice thereof to the Rating Agencies, Delta, the Liquidity Providers, the Policy Provider and the Trustees by telegram, cable, facsimile or telephone (to be promptly confirmed in writing), unless such Indenture Event of Default or Triggering Event shall have been cured or waived. For all purposes of this Agreement, in the absence of actual knowledge, the Subordination Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Indenture Event of Default or Triggering Event unless notified in writing by Delta, one or more Trustees, one or more Liquidity Providers, the Policy Provider or one or more Certificateholders; and "actual knowledge" (as used in the foregoing clause) of the Subordination Agent shall mean actual knowledge of an officer in the Corporate Trust Office of the Subordination Agent or any other Responsible Officer thereof. (b) Other Notices. The Subordination Agent will furnish to each Liquidity Provider, the Policy Provider and each Trustee, promptly upon receipt thereof, duplicates or copies of all reports, notices, requests, demands, certificates, financial statements and other instruments furnished to the Subordination Agent as registered holder of the Equipment Notes or otherwise in its capacity as Subordination Agent to the extent the same shall not have been otherwise directly distributed to such Liquidity Provider, the Policy Provider or each Trustee, as applicable, pursuant to any other Operative Agreement. Section 5.02. Indemnification. The Subordination Agent shall not be required to take any action or refrain from taking any action under Article IV unless the Subordination Agent shall have received indemnification against any risks incurred in connection therewith in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to it, including, without limitation, adequate advances against costs that may be incurred by it in connection therewith. The Subordination Agent shall not be required to take any action under Article IV, nor shall any other provision of this Agreement or any other Operative Agreement be deemed to impose a duty on the Subordination Agent to take any action, if the Subordination Agent shall have been advised by outside counsel that such action is contrary to the terms hereof or is otherwise contrary to law. Section 5.03. No Duties Except as Specified in Intercreditor Agreement. The Subordination Agent shall not have any duty or obligation to take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, this Agreement, except as expressly provided by the terms of this Agreement; and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Subordination Agent. The Subordination Agent agrees that it will, in its individual capacity and at its own cost and expense (but without any right of indemnity in respect of any such cost or expense) promptly take such action as may be necessary duly to discharge all Liens on any of the Trust Accounts or any monies deposited therein that are attributable to the Subordination Agent in its individual capacity and that are unrelated to the transaction contemplated hereby and by the other Operative Agreements. Section 5.04. Notice from the Liquidity Providers and Trustees. If any Liquidity Provider, the Policy Provider or any Trustee has notice of an Indenture Event of Default or a Triggering Event, such Person shall promptly give notice thereof to all other Liquidity Providers, the Policy Provider and all other Trustees and to the Subordination Agent; provided, however, that no such Person shall have any liability hereunder as a result of its failure to deliver any such notice.

ARTICLE VII SUCCESSOR SUBORDINATION AGENT Section 7.01. Replacement of Subordination Agent; Appointment of Successor. (a) The Subordination Agent or any successor thereto must resign if at any time it fails to comply with Section 6.09 and may resign at any time without cause by giving 60 days' prior written notice to Delta, the Trustees, the Policy Provider and the Liquidity Providers. The Controlling Party (or the party that would be the Controlling Party if an Indenture Event of Default had occurred) shall remove the Subordination Agent if: (1) the Subordination Agent fails to comply with Section 6.09; (2) the Subordination Agent is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent or files a bankruptcy petition; (3) a receiver of the Subordination Agent shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Subordination Agent or its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation; or (4) the Subordination Agent otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

If a successor Subordination Agent shall not have been appointed within 60 days after such notice of resignation or removal, the retiring Subordination Agent, one or more of the Trustees, the Policy Provider or one or more of the Liquidity Providers may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Subordination Agent to act until such time, if any, as a successor shall have been appointed as provided above. A successor Subordination Agent shall deliver (x) a written acceptance of its appointment as Subordination Agent hereunder to the retiring Subordination Agent and (y) a written assumption of its obligations hereunder and under each Liquidity Facility to each party hereto, upon which the resignation or removal of the retiring Subordination Agent shall become effective, and the successor Subordination Agent shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Subordination Agent under this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no resignation or removal of the Subordination Agent shall be effective unless and until a successor has been appointed. No appointment of a successor Subordination Agent shall be effective unless and until the Rating Agencies shall have delivered a Ratings Confirmation and so long as no Policy Provider Default has occurred and is continuing, the Policy Provider shall have consented to such successor Subordination Agent.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of each Certificateholder affected thereby, the Policy Provider and each Liquidity Provider, no supplement, amendment or modification of this Agreement may (i) reduce the percentage of the interest in any Trust evidenced by the Certificates issued by such Trust necessary to consent to modify or amend any provision of this Agreement or to waive compliance therewith or (ii), except as provided in the last sentence of this Section 8.01(a), modify Section 2.04, 3.02 or 3.03 hereof relating to the distribution of monies received by the Subordination Agent hereunder from the Equipment Notes or pursuant to the Liquidity Facilities or any Policy.

(b) Subject to Section 2.06, if the Subordination Agent, as the registered holder of any Equipment Notes, receives a request for its consent to any amendment, modification, consent or waiver under such Equipment Notes, to the Indenture pursuant to which such Equipment Notes were issued or the related Lease, Participation Agreement or other related document, (i) if no Indenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to such Indenture, the Subordination Agent shall request directions with respect to each series of such Equipment Notes from the Trustee of the Trust which holds such Equipment Notes, except that so long as the Final Distribution on the Class G-1 Certificates or Class G-2 Certificates has not been made or any Policy Provider Obligations or any other obligations owing to the Policy Provider hereunder remain outstanding and no Policy Provider Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Subordination Agent shall request directions from the Policy Provider rather than the Class G-1 Trustee or Class G-2 Trustee with respect to the Series G-1 Equipment Notes or Series G-2 Equipment Notes held in the Class G-1 Trust or Class G-2 Trust, respectively, and shall vote or consent in accordance with the directions of such Trustee or the Policy Provider, as the case may be, and (ii) if any Indenture Event of Default (which, in the case of any Indenture pertaining to a Leased Aircraft, has not been cured by the applicable Owner Trustee or applicable Owner Participant, if applicable, pursuant to Section 4.03 of such Indenture) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to such Indenture, the Subordination Agent will exercise its voting rights as directed by the Controlling Party, subject to Section 4.01 and 4.04; provided that no such amendment, modification, consent or waiver shall, without the consent of each Liquidity Provider, the Policy Provider, the Class G-1 Certificateholders and the Class G-2 Certificateholders, (i) reduce the amount of principal or interest payable by Delta under any Equipment Note issued under any Indenture in respect of an Owned Aircraft (other than in connection with a reoptimization relating to a sale/leaseback transaction for a Boeing 737-832 Aircraft) or reduce the amount of rent, supplemental rent, stipulated loss value or termination value payable by Delta under any Lease, (ii) create any Lien with respect to any Collateral or Indenture Estate prior to or pari passu with the Lien of the related Indenture or deprive any holder of an Equipment Note issued under such Indenture of the benefit of the Lien of such Indenture upon the related Collateral or Indenture Estate or (iii) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the outstanding Equipment Notes issued under any Indenture required to take or approve any action render such Indenture. (c) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, so long as Delta and/or its Affiliates holds or beneficially owns a majority in interest of the Class D Certificates or otherwise controls the actions of the Class D Trustee, any consent or approval of the Class D Trustee or any Class D Certificateholders otherwise required in accordance with the foregoing provisions shall not be required. Section 8.02. Subordination Agent Protected. If, in the reasonable opinion of the institution acting as the Subordination Agent hereunder, any document required to be executed by it pursuant to the terms of Section 8.01 adversely affects any right, duty, immunity or indemnity with respect to such institution under this Agreement, any Liquidity Facility or any Policy, the Subordination Agent may in its discretion decline to execute such document. Section 8.03. Effect of Supplemental Agreements. Upon the execution of any amendment, consent or supplement hereto pursuant to the provisions hereof, this Agreement shall be and shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith and the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities under this Agreement of the parties hereto and beneficiaries hereof shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments, and all the terms and conditions of any such supplemental agreement shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Agreement for any and all purposes.
