Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Underwriting Agreement

     On June 28, 2010, Delta Air Lines, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Goldman, Sachs & Co. and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, as representatives of the underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”), in connection with the issuance and sale of a total of $450,000,000 of Delta Air Lines, Inc. Pass Through Certificates, Series 2010-1A (the “Certificates”).

     The Certificates are being offered pursuant to the Prospectus Supplement, dated June 28, 2010, to the Prospectus, dated June 28, 2010, which forms a part of the Company’s automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-167811) (the “Registration Statement”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 28, 2010.

     The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and closing conditions for a transaction of this type. The Underwriting Agreement also contains provisions pursuant to which the Company agrees to hold harmless and indemnify the Underwriters against damages under certain circumstances, which are customary for a transaction of this type.

     Delivery of the Certificates was made under the Underwriting Agreement on July 2, 2010 with an interest rate of 6.20% per annum. The Certificates were issued by a pass through trust. The Underwriters purchased the Certificates from the pass through trust at 100% of the principal amount thereof.

     As described below, the pass through trust will use the proceeds from the sale of Certificates to acquire equipment notes from the Company. The equipment notes will be secured by 24 Boeing aircraft owned by the Company. Payments on the equipment notes held in the pass through trust will be passed through to the certificateholders of the trust. The Company expects to use the proceeds from the issuance of the equipment notes to refinance, in part, 22 aircraft currently supporting its outstanding 2000-1 EETC after the final maturity in November 2010 (the “2000-1 Aircraft”) and to finance, in part, 2 aircraft delivered earlier in 2010 (the “2010 Aircraft”). The Company will use any proceeds not used in connection with such refinancing or financing to pay fees and expenses related to the offering and for general corporate purposes.

     The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 1.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

     From time to time in the ordinary course of their respective business, the Underwriters and certain of their affiliates have engaged, and in the future may engage in, investment and commercial banking or other transactions of a financial nature with the Company and its affiliates, including the provision of certain advisory services, making loans to the Company and its affiliates and serving as counterparties to certain fuel hedging arrangements. The Underwriters and their affiliate have received and in the future may receive customary fees and expenses and commissions for these transactions.

Note Purchase Agreement

     On July 2, 2010, the Company, U.S. Bank Trust National Association, as Subordination Agent and Pass Through Trustee under the pass through trust newly formed by the Company (the “Trustee”), U.S. Bank National Association, as Escrow Agent under the Escrow Agreement (as defined below), and U.S. Bank Trust National Association as Paying Agent under the Escrow Agreement, entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”). The Note Purchase Agreement provides for future issuance by the Company of Series A equipment notes (the “Series A Equipment Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $450,000,000 secured by the 2000-1 Aircraft, which were delivered new to the Company in 1999 and 2000, and the 2010 Aircraft, which

were delivered new to the Company in 2010 (collectively, the 2000-1 Aircraft and the 2010 Aircraft are referred to as the “Aircraft”). The Note Purchase Agreement also provides for the possible future issuance of another series of equipment notes to be secured by the Aircraft. Pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, the Trustee will purchase the Series A Equipment Notes by December 31, 2010 with respect to the 2000-1 Aircraft and within 90 days of the date of the execution of the Note Purchase Agreement with respect to the 2010 Aircraft. The Series A Equipment Notes will be issued under an Indenture and Security Agreement (each, an “Indenture” and, collectively, the “Indentures”) with respect to each such Aircraft to be entered into by the Company and U.S. Bank Trust National Association, as Loan Trustee.

     Each Indenture contemplates the issuance of Series A Equipment Notes, bearing interest at the rate of 6.20% per annum in the aggregate principal amount (once all the Series A Equipment Notes have been issued) equal to $450,000,000. The Series A Equipment Notes will be purchased by the Trustee, using the proceeds from the sale of the Certificates.

     Pending the purchase of the Series A Equipment Notes, the proceeds from the sale of the Certificates were placed in escrow by the Trustee pursuant to an Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, dated as of July 2, 2010, among U.S. Bank National Association, Goldman, Sachs & Co., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and Banc of America Securities LLC, and the Trustee. The escrowed funds were deposited with the Bank of New York Mellon, under a Deposit Agreement.

     The interest on the escrowed funds is payable on January 2, 2011 and interest on the Series A Equipment Notes is payable semiannually on each January 2 and July 2, beginning on January 2, 2011. The principal payments on the Series A Equipment Notes are scheduled on January 2 and July 2 of certain years, beginning on January 2, 2011. The final payments will be due on July 2, 2018. Maturity of the Series A Equipment Notes may be accelerated upon the occurrence of certain events of default, including failure by the Company (in some cases after notice or the expiration of a grace period, or both) to make payments under the applicable Indenture when due or to comply with certain covenants, as well as certain bankruptcy events involving the Company. The Series A Equipment Notes issued with respect to each Aircraft will be secured by a lien on such Aircraft and will also be cross-collateralized by the other Aircraft financed pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement.

     The foregoing descriptions of the Note Purchase Agreement and the other agreements described above are qualified in their entirety by reference to the respective agreements, copies of which are filed herewith as exhibits and are incorporated herein by reference.

     This Current Report on Form 8-K is also being filed for the purpose of filing as exhibits to the Registration Statement the documents listed in Item 9.01 below, which are hereby incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

As representatives of the several Underwriters named in Schedule I hereto

Ladies and Gentlemen:

          Delta Air Lines, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), proposes that U.S. Bank Trust National Association (“U.S. Bank Trust”) (as successor in interest to State Street Bank and Trust Company of Connecticut, National Association), acting not in its individual capacity but solely as pass through trustee (the “Trustee”) under the Pass Through Trust Agreement, dated as of November 16, 2000 (the “Basic Agreement”), and supplemented by the Trust Supplement (as defined below), as amended, between the Company and the Trustee, issue and sell to the Underwriters named in Schedule I hereto (each, an “Underwriter” and together, the “Underwriters”), for which you are acting as representatives, Delta Air Lines Pass Through Certificates, Series 2010-1A (the “Certificates”), in the aggregate amount and with the interest rate and final expected distribution date set forth in Schedule II hereto on the terms and conditions stated herein.

          The Basic Agreement is supplemented with respect to the Certificates by a trust supplement, to be dated as of July 2, 2010 (the “Trust Supplement”), which relates to the creation and administration of the Delta Air Lines Pass Through Trust, Series 2010-1A (the “Trust”). The Basic Agreement, as supplemented by the Trust Supplement, is defined as the “Designated Agreement.”

          The cash proceeds of the offering of Certificates by the Trust will be paid to U.S. Bank National Association, as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”), under an Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement among the Escrow Agent, you, the Trustee and U.S. Bank Trust, as paying agent (the “Paying Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of Certificates issued by the Trust (the “Escrow Agreement”). The Escrow Agent will deposit such cash proceeds (the “Deposits”) with The Bank of New York Mellon (the “Depositary”), in accordance with a Deposit Agreement relating to the Trust (the “Deposit Agreement”), and will withdraw Deposits upon request to allow the Trustee to purchase Equipment Notes (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement

referred to herein) from time to time pursuant to a Note Purchase Agreement to be dated as of the date of the Closing Time (as defined in Section 2(b) hereof) (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) among the Company, the Trustee, the Escrow Agent and U.S. Bank Trust, as Subordination Agent (as hereinafter defined) and Paying Agent. With respect to each Certificate, the Escrow Agent will issue a receipt to be attached to such Certificate (each, an “Escrow Receipt”) representing a fractional undivided interest of the holder of such Certificate in amounts deposited with the Depository on behalf of the Escrow Agent and will pay to such holders through the Paying Agent interest accrued on the Deposits and received by such Paying Agent pursuant to the Deposit Agreement at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to such Certificate. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Note Purchase Agreement and the relevant participation agreement between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust (each, a “Participation Agreement”), the Equipment Notes will be issued under up to 24 separate Indenture and Security Agreements between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust, as Loan Trustee (the “Loan Trustee”) (each, including any supplements thereto, an “Indenture” and, collectively, the “Indentures”).

          The holders of the Certificates will be entitled to the benefits of a liquidity facility with respect to certain amounts of interest payable thereon. Natixis S.A., acting via its New York Branch (the “Liquidity Provider”), will enter into a revolving credit agreement with respect to the Trust (the “Liquidity Facility”), to be dated as of the Closing Time, for the benefit of the holders of the Certificates. The Liquidity Provider and the holders of the Certificates will be entitled to the benefits of an Intercreditor Agreement, to be dated as of the Closing Time (the “Intercreditor Agreement”), among U.S. Bank Trust, as Trustee of the Trust, the Liquidity Provider and U.S. Bank Trust, as Subordination Agent (the “Subordination Agent”).

          Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings specified in or pursuant to the Designated Agreement or the Intercreditor Agreement; provided that, as used in this Agreement, the term “Operative Documents” shall mean, collectively, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Liquidity Facility, the Fee Letter, the Designated Agreement, the Participation Agreements, the Indentures, the Escrow Agreement, the Deposit Agreement and the Note Purchase Agreement.

          As used herein, unless the context otherwise requires, the term “you” shall mean, collectively, Goldman, Sachs & Co. and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC.

          (c) The Company agrees that if at any time following issuance of an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus any event occurred or occurs as a result of which such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus would conflict with the information in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances then prevailing, not misleading, the Company will give prompt notice thereof to the Underwriters and, if requested by the Underwriters, will prepare and furnish without charge to each Underwriter an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or other document which will correct such conflict, statement or omission; provided, however, that this undertaking shall not apply to any statements or omissions in an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by the Underwriters through you expressly for use therein.

          7. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, each person who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, and each broker-dealer affiliate of any Underwriter against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Underwriter may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) (i) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and (ii) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Act (taken together with the Pricing Disclosure Package), or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and will reimburse each Underwriter for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Underwriter in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are

16

incurred; provided, however, (i) that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, in reliance upon and in conformity with, written information furnished to the Company by the Underwriters through you specifically for use in connection with the preparation thereof, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Underwriters through you for inclusion in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus consists of the following information in the Prospectus: the third sentence in the fifth paragraph and the eleventh and twelfth paragraphs under the caption “Underwriting” and (ii) the Company will not be liable for any such loss, claim, damage or liability in connection with any settlement of any pending or threatened litigation or any pending or threatened governmental agency investigation or proceeding if that settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have.

          (b) Each Underwriter severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and officers and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to each Underwriter and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any loss, claim, damage, liability or action, but only with reference to written information furnished to the Company by the Underwriters through you specifically for inclusion in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (taken together with the Pricing Disclosure Package) or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Underwriters through you for inclusion in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus consists of the following information in the Prospectus: the third sentence in the fifth paragraph and the eleventh and twelfth paragraphs under the caption “Underwriting”. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Underwriters may otherwise have.

          (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental investigation), such indemnified party will, if a claim for indemnification in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under Section 7(a) or (b) hereof, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under Section 7(a) or (b) hereof, and then only to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced thereby. In case any such action or proceeding is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein (jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified), and to the extent that it may elect, by written notice, delivered to such indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, that if the defendants (including any impleaded parties) in any such action include both the indemnified

17

party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to defend such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to appoint counsel to defend such action and approval by the indemnified party of such counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 7 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the next preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expense of more than one separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel), approved by the Underwriters in the case of paragraph (a) of this Section 7, representing the indemnified parties under such paragraph (a) who are parties to such action), (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice or commencement of the action or (iii) the indemnifying party has authorized the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party; and except that, if clause (i) or (iii) is applicable, such liability shall be only in respect of the counsel referred to in such clause (i) or (iii).

          (d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 7 is due in accordance with its terms but is for any reason unavailable on grounds of policy or otherwise, the Company and the Underwriters shall contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigation or defending same) to which the Company and one or more of the Underwriters may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other, from the offering of the Certificates to which such loss, claim, damage, or liability (or action in respect thereof) relates. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law or if the indemnified party failed to give the notice required under subsection (c) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable to such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Certificates pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds from the offering of the Certificates pursuant to this Agreement received by the Company as set forth in the Prospectus and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received or to be received by the Underwriters in respect of the offering of the Certificates, bears to the aggregate offering price of the Certificates as set forth on the cover of the Prospectus. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or such Underwriter and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it

18

would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute hereunder in aggregate any amount in excess of the amount by which (i) the total price at which the Certificates resold by it in the initial placement of such Certificates were offered to investors exceeds (ii) the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 7, each person who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either the Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each broker-dealer affiliate of any Underwriter shall have the same rights to contribution as any Underwriter, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company and each director of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the provisions of this paragraph (d). The obligations of the Underwriters of Certificates in this subsection (d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations with respect to such Certificates and not joint.

          8. Default. (a) If any Underwriter shall default in its obligation to purchase the Certificates which it has agreed to purchase hereunder, you may in your discretion arrange for you or another party or other parties to purchase such Certificates on the terms contained herein. If within thirty-six hours after such default by any Underwriter you do not arrange for the purchase of such Certificates, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of thirty-six hours within which to procure another party or other parties satisfactory to you to purchase such Certificates on such terms. In the event that, within the respective prescribed periods, you notify the Company that you have so arranged for the purchase of such Certificates, or the Company notifies you that it has so arranged for the purchase of such Certificates, you or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date for a period of not more than seven days, in order to effect whatever changes may thereby be made necessary in the Prospectus, or in any other documents or arrangements, and the Company agrees to prepare promptly any amendments to the Prospectus which in your reasonable opinion may thereby be made necessary. The term “Underwriter” as used in this Agreement shall include any person substituted under this Section with like effect as if such person had originally been a party to this Agreement with respect to such Certificates.

          (b) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Certificates of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by you and the Company as provided in subsection (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of Certificates which remains unpurchased does not exceed one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of all the Certificates, then the Company shall have the right to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase the principal amount of Certificates which such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder and, in addition, to require

19

each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase its pro rata share (based on the principal amount of Certificates which such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder) of the Certificates of such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters for which such arrangements have not been made; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

          (c) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Certificates of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by you and the Company as provided in subsection (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of Certificates which remains unpurchased exceeds one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of all the Certificates, or if the Company shall not exercise the right described in subsection (b) above to require non-defaulting Underwriters to purchase Certificates of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters, then this Agreement shall thereupon terminate, without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company, except for the expenses to be borne by the Company and the Underwriters as provided in Section 5 hereof and the indemnity and contribution agreements in Section 7 hereof; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

          9. Termination. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in your discretion, by notice given to the Company prior to Closing Time, if prior to such time (i) trading in the Company’s common stock shall have been suspended by the Commission or the New York Stock Exchange or trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or materially limited or minimum prices shall have been established on such Exchange, (ii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared either by Federal or New York State authorities or (iii) there shall have occurred any material outbreak or material escalation of hostilities or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on the financial markets of the United States is such as to make it, in your reasonable judgment, impracticable or inadvisable to market the Certificates or to enforce contracts for sale of the Certificates.

          10. Representations, Warranties, Indemnities and Agreements to Survive Delivery. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the Underwriters, as set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation (or any statement as to the results thereof) made by the Underwriters or any controlling person of any Underwriter or the Company or any officer or director or controlling person of the Company and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Certificates.

          11. Liability upon Termination. If this Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to Section 8 hereof, the Company shall not then be under any liability to any Underwriter except as provided in Sections 5 and 7 hereof; but, if for any other reason, the Certificates are not delivered by or on behalf of the Company as provided herein, because the Company fails to satisfy any of the conditions set forth in Section 4 hereof or because of any refusal, inability or failure of the Company to perform any agreement herein or to comply with any provision hereof, other than by reason of a default by the Underwriters, the Company will reimburse the Underwriters for all out-of-pocket expenses approved in writing by the Underwriters, including fees and disbursements of counsel, reasonably incurred by the Underwriters in making preparations for the purchase, sale and delivery of such Certificates, but the Company shall then be under no further liability to any Underwriter with respect to such Certificates except as provided in Section 5 and Section 7 hereof.

20

          12. Notices. It is understood and agreed that Goldman, Sachs & Co. and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC are joint lead book runners for the public offering of the Certificates and any determinations or other actions to be made under this Agreement by you shall require the concurrence of each of Goldman, Sachs & Co. and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC.

          All statements, requests, notices and agreements hereunder shall be in writing, and if to the Underwriters, shall be delivered or sent by mail, telex or facsimile transmission to Goldman, Sachs & Co., in care of Goldman, Sachs & Co, 200 West Street, New York, NY 10282-2198, Facsimile: 212-902-3000, Attention: Registration Department, and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, in care of Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Eleven Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10010-3629, Attention: LCD-IBD; and if to the Company shall be delivered or sent by mail, telex or facsimile transmission to the address of the Company set forth in the Prospectus, Attention: Chief Financial Officer (with a copy to the General Counsel). Any such statements, requests, notices or agreements shall take effect upon receipt thereof.

          13. Parties. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure solely to the benefit of, the Underwriters, the Company and, to the extent provided in Sections 7 and 10 hereof, the officers and directors of the Company and each person who controls the Company or any Underwriter, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, and no other person shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement. No purchaser of any of the Certificates from any Underwriter shall be deemed a successor or assign by reason merely of such purchase.

          14. Time of the Essence. Time shall be of the essence of this Agreement.

          15. No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship. The Company acknowledges and agrees that (a) the purchase and sale of the Certificates pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the offering price of the Certificates and any related discounts and commissions, is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, (b) in connection with the offering contemplated hereby and the process leading to such transaction each Underwriter is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the agent or fiduciary of the Company, or its stockholders, creditors, employees or any other party, (c) no Underwriter has assumed or will assume an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company with respect to the offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Company on other matters) and no Underwriter has any obligation to the Company with respect to the offering contemplated hereby except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement, (d) the Underwriters and their respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of each of the Company, and (e) the Underwriters have not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated hereby and the Company has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate.

          16. Patriot Act. In accordance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), the Underwriters are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies their respective clients, including the

21

Company, which information may include the name and address of their respective clients, as well as other information that will allow the Underwriters to properly identify their respective clients.

          17. Entire Agreement. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Company and the Underwriters, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

          18. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY MATTERS RELATED TO THIS TRANSACTION SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF ANY LAW OTHER THAN THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

          19. Waiver of Jury Trial. The Company and each of the Underwriters hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

          20. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by any one or more of the parties hereto in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such respective counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

22

          If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding, please sign and return to us counterparts hereof, and upon the acceptance hereof by you, this letter and such acceptance hereof shall constitute a binding agreement between each of the Underwriters and the Company.

          Section 6.01 Purchase Rights of Certificateholders. (a) By acceptance of its Class A Certificate, each Class A Certificateholder agrees that at any time after the occurrence and during the continuation of a Certificate Buy-Out Event:

     (i) if any Class B Certificates are issued, each Class B Certificateholder (other than the Company or any of its Affiliates) shall have the right to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Class A Certificates upon ten days’ prior written irrevocable notice to the Trustee, the Class B Trustee and each other Class B Certificateholder, on the third Business Day following the expiration of such ten-day notice period, provided that (A) if prior to the end of such ten-day period any other Class B Certificateholder(s) (other than the Company or any of its Affiliates) notifies such purchasing Class B Certificateholder that such other Class B Certificateholder(s) want(s) to participate in such purchase, then such other Class B Certificateholder(s) may join with the purchasing Class B Certificateholder to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Class A Certificates pro rata based on the Fractional Undivided Interest in the Class B Trust held by each such Class B Certificateholder and (B) upon consummation of such purchase no Class B Certificateholder shall have a right to purchase the Class A Certificates pursuant to this Section 6.01(a)(i) during the continuance of such Certificate Buy-Out Event; and

     (ii) if any Refinancing Certificates are issued, each Refinancing Certificateholder shall have the same right (subject to the same terms and conditions) to purchase Certificates pursuant to this Section 6.01(a) (and to receive notice in connection therewith) as the Certificateholders of the Class that such Refinancing Certificates refinanced.

          The purchase price with respect to the Class A Certificates shall be equal to the Pool Balance of the Class A Certificates, together with accrued and unpaid interest in respect thereof to the date of such purchase, and any other amounts then due and payable to the Class A Certificateholders under this Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Escrow Agreement,

any Series A Equipment Note held as the property of the Class A Trust or the related Indenture and Participation Agreement or on or in respect of the Class A Certificates but without any Premium, provided, however, that if such purchase occurs after (x) a record date specified in Section 2.03 of the Escrow Agreement relating to the distribution of unused Deposits and/or accrued and unpaid interest on Deposits and prior to or on the related distribution date under the Escrow Agreement, such purchase price shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of unused Deposits and/or interest to be distributed under the Escrow Agreement (which deducted amounts shall remain distributable to, and may be retained by, the Class A Certificateholders as of such record date) or (y) the Record Date relating to any Distribution Date, such purchase price shall be reduced by the amount to be distributed hereunder on such related Distribution Date (which deducted amounts shall remain distributable to, and may be retained by, the Class A Certificateholders as of such Record Date); provided further that no such purchase of Class A Certificates pursuant to this Section 6.01(a) shall be effective unless the purchaser(s) shall certify to the Trustee that contemporaneously with such purchase, such purchaser(s) is purchasing, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Class B Trust Agreement or the applicable Refinancing Trust Agreement (as the case may be), and the Intercreditor Agreement, all of the Class A Certificates. Each payment of the purchase price of the Class A Certificates referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph shall be made to an account or accounts designated by the Trustee and each such purchase shall be subject to the terms of this Section 6.01(a). Each Class A Certificateholder agrees by its acceptance of its Class A Certificate that it will, upon payment from such Class B Certificateholder(s) or Refinancing Certificateholder(s), as the case may be, of the purchase price set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph, forthwith sell, assign, transfer and convey to the purchaser(s) thereof (without recourse, representation or warranty of any kind except as to its own acts) all of the right, title, interest and obligation of such Class A Certificateholder in this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Deposit Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Class A Liquidity Facility, the NPA, the Note Documents and all Class A Certificates and Escrow Receipts held by such Class A Certificateholder (excluding all right, title and interest under any of the foregoing to the extent such right, title or interest is with respect to an obligation not then due and payable as respects any action or inaction or state of affairs occurring prior to such sale) and the purchaser(s) shall assume all of such Class A Certificateholder’s obligations under this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Deposit Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Class A Liquidity Facility, the NPA, the Note Documents and all such Class A Certificates and Escrow Receipts. The Class A Certificates will be deemed to be purchased on the date payment of the purchase price is made notwithstanding the failure of any Class A Certificateholder to deliver any Class A Certificate and, upon such a purchase, (i) the Class A Certificateholders shall have no further rights with respect to the Class A Certificates and (ii) if the purchaser(s) shall so request, each such Class A Certificateholder will comply with all the provisions of Section 3.04 of the Basic Agreement and the applicable provisions of this Trust Supplement to enable new Class A Certificates to be issued to the purchaser(s) in such denominations otherwise authorized under this Agreement as it shall request. All charges and expenses in connection with the issuance of any such new Class A Certificates shall be borne by the purchaser(s) thereof.

          (b) This Section 6.01 supplements and, to the extent inconsistent with any provision of Section 6.01(d) of the Basic Agreement, replaces the provisions of Section 6.01(d) of the Basic Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any Operative Agreement, the provisions of this Section 6.01 may not be amended in any manner

without the consent of each Class A Certificateholder and each Class B Certificateholder or, as the case may be, Refinancing Certificateholder (in each case, other than the Company or any of its Affiliates in its respective capacity as a Certificateholder) that would be adversely affected thereby; provided that the purchase price under this Section 6.01 (as in effect on the date hereof) for any Certificate held by the Company or any of its Affiliates shall not be modified without the prior written consent of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, if a Certificate Buy-Out Event ceases to exist and another Certificate Buy-Out Event occurs and is continuing, the purchase rights set forth in Section 6.01(a) shall be revived notwithstanding any exercise of such rights during the continuance of any preceding Certificate Buy-Out Event.

If at any time prior to the Applicable Funding Date, the Trustee receives from the Company a notice pursuant to the first sentence of Section 1(f) of the NPA, then the Trustee shall give notice to the Depositary (with a copy to the Escrow Agent) of the cancellation of such Notice of Purchase Withdrawal

relating to such Deposit or Deposits on such Applicable Funding Date as contemplated by Section 2.3 of the Deposit Agreement. Upon satisfaction of the conditions specified in the NPA and the Applicable Participation Agreement, the Trustee shall purchase the applicable Series A Equipment Notes with the proceeds of the withdrawals of one or more Deposits made on the Applicable Funding Date in accordance with the terms of the Deposit Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. The purchase price of such Series A Equipment Notes shall equal the principal amount of such Series A Equipment Notes. Amounts withdrawn from such Deposit or Deposits in excess of the purchase price of the Series A Equipment Notes or to the extent not applied on the Applicable Funding Date to the purchase price of the Series A Equipment Notes shall be re-deposited by the Trustee with the Depositary on the Applicable Funding Date in accordance with the terms of the Deposit Agreement. The provisions of this Section 7.01(b) supersede and replace the provisions of Section 2.02 of the Basic Agreement with respect to the Class A Trust, and no provisions of the Basic Agreement relating to Postponed Notes and Section 2.02 of the Basic Agreement shall apply to the Class A Trust.

The Trustee shall hold the Special Payments Account in trust for the benefit of the Class A Certificateholders and shall make or permit withdrawals therefrom only as provided in the Agreement or the Intercreditor Agreement. On each day when one or more Special Payments are made to the Trustee under the Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee, upon receipt thereof, shall immediately deposit the aggregate amount of such Special Payments in the Special Payments Account.”

          (d) With respect to the Class A Trust, the second sentence of Section 4.02(c) of the Basic Agreement shall be superseded and replaced in its entirety with the following sentence: “Subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement: (i) in the event of redemption or purchase of Series A Equipment Notes held in the Class A Trust, such notice shall be mailed not less than 15 days prior to the Special Distribution Date for the Special Payment resulting from such redemption or purchase, which Special Distribution Date shall be the date of such redemption or purchase; and (ii) in the case of any other Special Payments, such notice of Special Payment shall be mailed as soon as practicable after the Trustee has confirmed that it has received funds for such Special Payment and shall state the Special Distribution date for such Special Payment, which shall occur 15 days after the date of such notice of Special Payment or (if such 15th day is not practicable) as soon as practicable thereafter.”

          (e) With respect to the Class A Trust, clause (ii) of the third sentence of Section 4.02(c) of the Basic Agreement shall be amended by deleting in its entirety the parenthetical phrase “(taking into account any payment to be made by the Responsible Party pursuant to Section 2.02(b)).”

          Section 9.02 Basic Agreement Ratified. Except and so far as herein expressly provided, all of the provisions, terms and conditions of the Basic Agreement are in all respects ratified and confirmed; and the Basic Agreement and this Trust Supplement shall be taken, read and construed as one and the same instrument.

          The Certificates represent Fractional Undivided Interests in the Trust and the Trust Property, and will have no rights, benefits or interest in respect of any other separate trust established pursuant to the terms of the Basic Agreement for any other series of certificates issued pursuant thereto.

          Subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement, from funds then available to the Trustee, there will be distributed on each January 2 and July 2 (each, a “Regular Distribution Date”), commencing on January 2, 2011, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the 15th day preceding the Regular Distribution Date, an amount in respect of the Scheduled Payments on the Series A Equipment Notes due on such Regular Distribution Date, the receipt of which has been confirmed by the Trustee, equal to the product of the percentage interest in the Trust evidenced by this Certificate and an amount equal to the sum of such Scheduled Payments. Subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement, in the event that Special Payments on the Series A Equipment Notes are received by the Trustee, from funds then available to the Trustee, there shall be distributed on the applicable Special Distribution Date, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the 15th day preceding the applicable Special Distribution Date, an amount in respect of such Special Payments on the Series A Equipment Notes, the receipt of which has been confirmed by the Trustee, equal to the product of the percentage interest in the Trust evidenced by this Certificate and an amount equal to the sum of such Special Payments so received. If a Regular Distribution Date or Special Distribution Date is not a Business Day, distribution shall be made on the immediately following Business Day and no interest shall accrue during the intervening period. The Trustee shall mail notice of each Special Payment and the Special Distribution Date therefor to the Certificateholder of this Certificate.

          Distributions on this Certificate will be made by the Trustee by check mailed to the Person entitled thereto, without the presentation or surrender of this Certificate or the making of any notation hereon, except that with respect to Certificates registered on the Record Date in the name of a Clearing Agency (or its nominee), such distributions shall be made by wire transfer. Except as otherwise provided in the Agreement and notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after notice mailed by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency of the Trustee specified in such notice.

          The Certificates do not represent a direct obligation of, or an obligation guaranteed by, or an interest in, the Company, the Trustee, the Subordination Agent, any Loan Trustee or any Affiliate of any thereof. The Certificates are limited in right of payment, all as more specifically set forth on the face hereof and in the Agreement. All payments or distributions made to Certificateholders under the Agreement shall be made only from the Trust Property and only to the extent that the Trustee shall have sufficient income or proceeds from the Trust Property to make such payments in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. Each Certificateholder of this Certificate, by its acceptance hereof, agrees that it will look solely to the income and proceeds from the Trust Property to the extent available for any payment or distribution to such Certificateholder pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and that it will not have any recourse to the Company, the Trustee, the Loan Trustees or any Affiliate of any thereof except as otherwise expressly provided in the Agreement, in any Note Document or in the

Trust Supplement No. 2010-1A

A copy of the Agreement may be examined during normal business hours at the principal office of the Trustee, and at such other places, if any, designated by the Trustee, by any Certificateholder upon request.

          The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof, and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement, at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Certificateholders holding Certificates evidencing Fractional Undivided Interests aggregating not less than a majority in interest in the Trust. Any such consent by the Certificateholder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Certificateholder and upon all future Certificateholders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Certificateholders of any of the Certificates.

          As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies maintained by the Trustee in its capacity as Registrar, or by any successor Registrar, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Registrar, duly executed by the Certificateholder hereof or such Certificateholder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest in the Trust will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

          The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 (or such other denomination that is the lowest integral multiple of $1,000 that is, at the time of issuance, equal to at least 1,000 euros) Fractional Undivided Interest and multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof except that one Certificate may be issued in a different denomination. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest in the Trust, as requested by the Certificateholder surrendering the same.

          No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Trustee shall require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

          The Company, the Trustee, the Registrar and any Paying Agent shall deem and treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Company, the Trustee, the Registrar or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

          The obligations and responsibilities created by the Agreement and the Trust created thereby shall terminate upon the distribution to Certificateholders of all amounts required to be distributed to them pursuant to the Agreement and the disposition of all property held as part of the Trust Property.

          Any Person acquiring or accepting this Certificate or an interest herein will, by such acquisition or acceptance, be deemed to represent and warrant to the Company, the Loan Trustees and the Trustee that either: (i) no assets of a Plan or any trust established with respect to a Plan, have been used to acquire this Certificate or an interest herein or (ii) the purchase and holding of this Certificate or interest herein by such Person are exempt from the prohibited transaction restrictions of ERISA and the Code or materially similar provisions of Similar Law pursuant to one or more prohibited transaction statutory or administrative exemptions.

          WHEREAS, Delta may in the future enter into a Trust Supplement with respect to the Class B Trust in connection with the issuance of the Class B Certificates to provide financing for the purchase by the Class B Trustee of the Series B Equipment Notes, if issued in respect of, and secured by a security interest in, the Aircraft;

          WHEREAS, pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Underwriters propose to purchase the Class A Certificates;

          WHEREAS, the Class A Liquidity Provider proposes to enter into a revolving credit agreement with the Subordination Agent, as agent and trustee for the Trustee of the Class A Trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders of the Class A Trust; and

          WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the obligations of the Underwriters under the Underwriting Agreement that the Subordination Agent, the Class A Trustee and the Class A Liquidity Provider agree to the terms of subordination set forth in this Agreement in respect of each Class of Certificates, and the Subordination Agent, the Class A Trustee and the Class A Liquidity Provider, by entering into this Agreement, hereby acknowledge and agree to such terms of subordination and the other provisions of this Agreement;

          (b) Except as otherwise expressly provided in the next succeeding sentence of this Section 2.01(b), all payments to be made by the Subordination Agent hereunder shall be made only from amounts received by it that constitute Scheduled Payments, Special Payments and other payments under the Operative Agreements, including payments under Section 4.02 of the Participation Agreements and Section 2.14 of the Indentures, and only to the extent that the Subordination Agent shall have received sufficient income or proceeds therefrom to enable it to make such payments in accordance with the terms hereof.

          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 as of such date under any Liquidity Facility shall have been drawn (for any reason other than a Downgrade Drawing or a Non-Extension Drawing but including a Final Drawing, a Special Termination Drawing or a Downgrade Drawing or Non-Extension Drawing that has been converted into a Final Drawing under such Liquidity Facility) and remains 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 under all Indentures shall have been Accelerated (provided that (x) with respect to the period prior to the Delivery Period Termination Date, such Equipment Notes have an aggregate outstanding principal balance of in excess of $150,000,000, and (y) in the event of a bankruptcy proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code in which Delta is a debtor, any amounts payable in respect of Equipment Notes which have become immediately due and payable by declaration or otherwise shall not be considered Accelerated for purposes of this sub-clause (iii) until the expiration of the 60-Day Period or such longer period as may apply under Section 1110(a)(2)(B) or Section 1110(b) of the Bankruptcy Code), the Liquidity Provider with the greatest amount of unreimbursed Liquidity Obligations owed to it (so long as such Liquidity Provider has not defaulted in its obligation to make any Drawing under its Liquidity Facility) shall have the right to elect, by Written Notice to the Subordination Agent 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.

          (d) [Reserved].

          (e) The exercise of remedies by the Controlling Party under this Agreement shall be expressly limited by Sections 4.01(a)(ii) and 4.01(a)(iii) hereof.

          Section 3.03. Other Payments.

Intercreditor Agreement (2010-1)
(2010-1 EETC)

31

Rate for such Class of Certificates) (other than any amount of interest which was due and payable on the Class A Certificates on such Distribution Date but which remains unpaid due to the failure of the Depositary to pay any amount of accrued interest on the Deposits on such Distribution Date), then, prior to 12:30 p.m. (New York City time) on such Distribution Date, (i) the Subordination Agent shall request a drawing (each such drawing, an “Interest Drawing”) under the Liquidity Facility with respect to such Class of Certificates in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) an amount sufficient to pay the amount of such accrued interest shortfall (at the applicable Stated Interest Rate for such Class of Certificates) and (y) the Available Amount under such Liquidity Facility, and shall upon receipt of such amount pay such amount to the Trustee with respect to each such Class of Certificates in payment of such accrued interest shortfall.

          (b) Application of Interest Drawings. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) all payments received by the Subordination Agent in respect of an Interest Drawing under the Class A Liquidity Facility and all amounts withdrawn by the Subordination Agent from the Class A Cash Collateral Account, and payable in each case to the Class A Certificateholders or the Class A Trustee, shall be promptly distributed to the Class A Trustee, and (ii) all payments received by the Subordination Agent in respect of an Interest Drawing under the Class B Liquidity Facility and all amounts withdrawn by the Subordination Agent from the Class B Cash Collateral Account, and payable in each case to the Class B Certificateholders or the Class B Trustee, shall be promptly distributed to the Class B Trustee.

          (c) Downgrade Drawings. Each 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 and Delta. If at any time a Downgrade Event occurs with respect to any Liquidity Provider, within 10 days after such downgrading (but not later than the expiration date of each Liquidity Facility issued by such Liquidity Provider in respect of which the Downgrade Event occurs (a “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 day (or if such 10th 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 3.05(f). Subject to Section 3.05(e)(iii), the applicable 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 such 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

Intercreditor Agreement (2010-1)
(2010-1 EETC)

32

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). Whether or not the applicable Liquidity Provider has received a request from the Subordination Agent, such 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 (or if earlier, the date of such Liquidity Provider’s receipt of such request, if any, from the Subordination Agent) 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 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, such Liquidity Provider revokes its Consent Notice. If a Liquidity Provider advises the Subordination Agent on or before the end of the Consent Period that such Stated Expiration Date shall not be so extended 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 or gives a Withdrawal Notice to the Subordination Agent prior to the end of the Consent Period (and, in each case, if such Liquidity Provider shall not have been replaced in accordance with Section 3.05(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 3.05(f). If any amounts shall be drawn pursuant to a Non-Extension Drawing and, within 30 days thereafter, the applicable Liquidity Provider shall not have been replaced, then at any time following the 45th day after such Non-Extension Drawing, such Liquidity Provider may, by written notice to the Subordination Agent, agree to reinstate the applicable Liquidity Facility on the terms of the existing related Liquidity Facility for a period ending on the 364th day after the end of the Consent Period; provided, however, that in such event such 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 3.05(e)(iii) and the agreements, if any, in the applicable Fee Letter, at any time, Delta may, at its option and at its own expense, 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 3.05(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. If such Replacement Liquidity Facility is provided at any time after a Downgrade Drawing, a Non-Extension Drawing or a Special Termination 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.

Intercreditor Agreement (2010-1)
(2010-1 EETC)

33

          (ii) If any Liquidity Provider shall determine not to extend its Liquidity Facility in accordance with Section 3.05(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. At any time after a Non-Extension Drawing has been made under any Liquidity Facility, the Liquidity Provider thereunder may, at its option, arrange for a Replacement Liquidity Facility to replace the Liquidity Facility under which such Non-Extension Drawing has been made.

37

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).

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, as the holder of the Equipment Notes issued under such Indenture, which in turn shall direct the Loan Trustee under such Indenture, in the exercise of remedies available to the holders of such Equipment Notes, including, without limitation, the ability to vote all such Equipment Notes held by the Subordination Agent in favor of Accelerating such Equipment Notes in accordance with the provisions of such Indenture. Subject to Section 4.01(a)(iii), 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 the Controlling Party may reasonably deem advisable and in accordance with applicable law.

          (ii) Following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Indenture Event of Default under any Indenture, in the exercise of remedies pursuant to such Indenture, the

Intercreditor Agreement (2010-1)
(2010-1 EETC)

38

Loan Trustee under such Indenture may be directed to lease the related Aircraft to any Person (including Delta) so long as the Loan Trustee in doing so acts in a “commercially reasonable” manner within the meaning of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any applicable jurisdiction (including Sections 9-610 and 9-627 thereof).

          (iii) 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), 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.

          (iv) Upon the occurrence and continuation of an Indenture Event of Default under any Indenture, the Subordination Agent will obtain three desktop appraisals from the Appraisers selected by the Controlling Party setting forth the current market value, current lease rate and distressed value (in each case, as defined by the International Society of Transport Aircraft Trading or any successor organization) of the Aircraft subject to such Indenture (each such appraisal, an “Appraisal” and the current market value appraisals being referred to herein as the “Post-Default Appraisals”). For so long as any Indenture Event of Default shall be continuing under any Indenture, and without limiting the right of the Controlling Party to request more frequent Appraisals, the Subordination Agent will obtain updated Appraisals on the date that is 364 days from the date of the most recent Appraisal (or if a Delta Bankruptcy Event shall have occurred and is continuing, on the date that is 180 days from the date of the most recent Appraisal) and shall (acting on behalf of each Trustee) post such Appraisals on DTC’s Internet bulletin board or make such other commercially reasonable efforts as the Subordination Agent may deem appropriate to make such Appraisals available to all Certificateholders.

          (b) Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Indenture Event of Default under any Indenture, the Controlling Party shall take such actions as it may reasonably deem most effectual to complete the sale or other disposition of the relevant Aircraft or Equipment Notes. In addition, in lieu of any sale, assignment, contract to sell or other disposition, the Controlling Party may maintain or cause the Subordination Agent to maintain possession of such Equipment Notes and continue to apply monies received in respect of such Equipment Notes in accordance with Article III hereof. 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 to take any other remedial action permitted under such Indenture or under any applicable law.

          (c) If following a Delta Bankruptcy Event and during the pendency thereof, the Controlling Party receives a proposal from or on behalf of Delta to restructure the financing of any one or more of the Aircraft, the Controlling Party shall promptly thereafter give the Subordination Agent, each Trustee and each Liquidity Provider that has not made a Final Drawing notice of the material economic terms and conditions of such restructuring proposal

39

whereupon the Subordination Agent acting on behalf of each Trustee shall post such terms and conditions of such restructuring proposal on DTC’s Internet bulletin board or make such other commercially reasonable efforts as the Subordination Agent may deem appropriate to make such terms and conditions available to all Certificateholders. Thereafter, neither the Subordination Agent nor any Trustee, whether acting on instructions of the Controlling Party or otherwise, may, without the consent of each Trustee and each Liquidity Provider that has not made a Final Drawing, enter into any term sheet, stipulation or other agreement (a “Restructuring Arrangement”) (whether in the form of an adequate protection stipulation, an extension under Section 1110(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) to effect any such restructuring proposal with or on behalf of Delta unless and until the material economic terms and conditions of such restructuring proposal shall have been made available to all Certificateholders and each Liquidity Provider that has not made a Final Drawing for a period of not less than 15 calendar days (except that such requirement shall not apply to any such term sheet, stipulation or other agreement that is to be effective on or as of any date occurring during the 60-Day Period and that is initially effective for a period not exceeding three months from the expiry of the 60-Day Period (an “Interim Restructuring Arrangement”)). The foregoing provisions of this Section 4.01(c): (i) shall not apply to any extension of a Restructuring Arrangement with respect to which such provisions have been complied with in connection with the original entry thereof if the possibility of such extension has been disclosed in satisfaction of the notification requirements of such provisions and such extension shall not amend or modify any of the other terms and conditions of such Restructuring Arrangement and (ii) shall apply to the initial extension of an Interim Restructuring Arrangement beyond the three months following the expiry of the 60-Day Period but not to any subsequent extension of such Interim Restructuring Arrangement, if the possibility of such subsequent extension has been disclosed in satisfaction of the notification requirements of such provisions and such subsequent extension shall not amend or modify any of the other terms and conditions of such Interim Restructuring Arrangement. In the event that any Certificateholder gives irrevocable notice of the exercise of its right to purchase all (but not less than all) of the Class of Certificates represented by the then Controlling Party pursuant to the applicable Trust Agreement, prior to the expiry of the 15-day notice period specified above, such Controlling Party may not direct the Subordination Agent or any Trustee to enter into any such restructuring proposal with respect to any of the Aircraft, unless and until such Certificateholder shall fail to purchase such Class of Certificates on the date that it is required to make such purchase.

          Section 4.02. Remedies Cumulative. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each and every right, power and remedy given to the Trustees, the Liquidity Providers, 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 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 Controlling Party or the Subordination Agent in the exercise of any right, remedy or power or in the pursuit of any remedy shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law,

Intercreditor Agreement (2010-1)
(2010-1 EETC)

40

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 and the Liquidity Providers to Receive Payments Not to Be Impaired. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding but subject to each Trust Agreement, the right of any Certificateholder or any Liquidity Provider, respectively, to receive payments hereunder (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 3.02) 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 or such Liquidity Provider, respectively.

          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 and the Liquidity Providers. The Controlling Party or Delta (only so long as no Indenture Event of Default has occurred or is continuing) may remove the Subordination Agent for cause by so notifying the Subordination Agent and may appoint a successor Subordination Agent. 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 the Subordination Agent resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Subordination Agent for any reason (the Subordination Agent in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Subordination Agent), the Controlling Party (or the party that would be the Controlling Party if an Indenture Event of Default had occurred) shall promptly appoint a successor Subordination Agent. 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 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. The successor Subordination Agent shall mail a notice of its succession to Delta, the Liquidity Providers and the Trustees. The retiring Subordination Agent shall promptly transfer its rights under each of the Liquidity Facilities and all of the property and all books and records, or true, complete and correct copies thereof, held by it as Subordination Agent to the successor Subordination Agent.

          If the Subordination Agent fails to comply with Section 6.09 (to the extent applicable), one or more of the Trustees or one or more of the Liquidity Providers may petition a

Intercreditor Agreement (2010-1)
(2010-1 EETC)

46

court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Subordination Agent and the appointment of a successor Subordination Agent.

          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 with respect to each Class of Certificates then rated by the Rating Agencies.

          (b) Any corporation, bank, trust company or other financial institution into which the Subordination Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation, bank, trust company or other financial institution resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Subordination Agent shall be a party, or any corporation, bank, trust company or other financial institution succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Subordination Agent, shall be the successor of the Subordination Agent hereunder, provided that such corporation, bank, trust company or other financial institution shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under Section 6.09, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, except that such corporation, bank, trust company or other financial institution shall give prompt notice of such transaction to the Liquidity Providers and Delta.

ARTICLE VIII

SUPPLEMENTS AND AMENDMENTS

          Section 8.01. Amendments, Waivers, Etc. (a) This Agreement may not be supplemented, amended or modified without the consent of each Trustee (acting, except in the case of any amendment pursuant to Section 3.05(e)(v) or any amendment contemplated by the last sentence of this Section 8.01(a), with the consent of holders of Outstanding Certificates of the related Class evidencing Fractional Undivided Interests in the related Trust aggregating not less than a majority in interest in such Trust or as otherwise authorized pursuant to the relevant Trust Agreement (including, without limitation, without the consent of the Certificateholders to the extent permitted thereby, Section 9.01 thereof)), the Subordination Agent and each Liquidity Provider; provided, however, that this Agreement may be supplemented, amended or modified without the consent of any Trustee or the Subordination Agent in order (i) to cure any ambiguity or omission or to correct any mistake, (ii) to correct or supplement any provision, or (iii) to make any other provision in regard to matters or questions arising hereunder that will not materially adversely affect the interests of any Trustee or the holders of the related Class of Certificates, and without the consent of any Liquidity Provider if such supplement, amendment or modification is in accordance with Section 8.01(c) or 8.01(d); provided further, however, that, if such supplement, amendment or modification (x) would directly or indirectly amend, modify or supersede, or otherwise conflict with, Section 2.02(b), 3.05(c), 3.05(e), 3.05(f), 3.05(m), 4.01(a)(ii) or 4.01(c), this proviso of Section 8.01(a), the last sentence of Section 8.01(a), Section 8.01(c), 8.01(d) or 9.06 (collectively, the “Delta Provisions”), (y) would otherwise affect the interests of any potential Replacement Liquidity Provider or replacement Depositary or of Delta with respect to Delta’s ability to replace any Liquidity Facility or the Depositary or with respect to Delta’s payment obligations under any Operative Agreement or (z) is made pursuant to

(2010-1 EETC)

47

the last sentence of this Section 8.01(a) or pursuant to Section 8.01(c) or pursuant to Section 8.01(d), then such supplement, amendment or modification shall not be effective without the additional written consent of Delta. Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of each Certificateholder affected thereby 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) or Section 8.01(c) or Section 8.01(d), 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. Nothing contained in this Section 8.01(a) shall require the consent of a Trustee at any time following the payment of Final Distributions with respect to the related Class of Certificates. If the Replacement Liquidity Facility for any Liquidity Facility is to be comprised of more than one instrument as contemplated by the definition of the term “Replacement Liquidity Facility”, then each party hereto agrees to amend this Agreement and the other Operative Agreements to incorporate appropriate mechanics for multiple Liquidity Facilities for a single Trust.

          (b) In the event that the Subordination Agent, as the registered holder of any Equipment Notes, receives a request for its consent to any amendment, supplement, modification, approval, consent or waiver under such Equipment Notes, the Indenture pursuant to which such Equipment Notes were issued or the related 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 and shall vote or consent in accordance with the directions of such Trustee and (ii) if any Indenture Event of Default 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 Sections 4.01 and 4.04. Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of each Liquidity Provider and each Certificateholder holding Certificates representing a Fractional Undivided Interest in the Equipment Notes under the applicable Indenture held by the Subordination Agent, no such amendment, supplement, modification, approval, consent or waiver shall (i) reduce the principal amount of, Premium, if any, or interest on, any Equipment Note under such Indenture; (ii) change the date on which any principal amount of, Premium, if any, or interest on any Equipment Note under such Indenture, is due or payable; (iii) create any Lien with respect to the Collateral subject to such Indenture prior to or pari passu with the Lien thereon under such Indenture except such as are permitted by such Indenture; provided that, without the consent of each Certificateholder, no such amendment, supplement, modification, approval, consent or waiver shall modify Section 3.03 or Section 9.02(a)(3) of such Indenture or deprive any Certificateholder of the benefit of the Lien of such Indenture on such Collateral, except as provided in connection with the exercise of remedies under Article IV of such Indenture; (iv) reduce the percentage of the outstanding principal amount of the Equipment Notes under such Indenture the consent of whose holders is required for any supplemental agreement, or the consent of whose holders is required for any waiver of compliance with certain provisions of such Indenture or of certain defaults thereunder or their consequences provided for in such Indenture; or (v) make any change in Section 4.05 or Section 9.02 of such Indenture, except to provide that certain other provisions of such Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of each holder of an Equipment Note under such Indenture affected thereby.

          (c) If Series B Equipment Notes, with respect to all of the Aircraft for which Series B Equipment Notes are at the time outstanding, are redeemed and new Equipment Notes of corresponding series are to be issued in accordance with the terms of Section 2.11(b) of each Indenture and Section 4(a)(v) of the Note Purchase Agreement, such series of new Equipment Notes (the “Refinancing Equipment Notes”) shall be issued to a new pass through trust (a “Refinancing Trust”) that issues a class of pass through certificates (the “Refinancing Certificates”) to certificateholders (the “Refinancing Certificateholders”) pursuant to a pass through trust agreement (a “Refinancing Trust Agreement”) with a trustee (a “Refinancing Trustee”). A Refinancing Trust, a Refinancing Trustee and the Refinancing Certificates shall be subject to all of the provisions of this Agreement in the same manner as the Trust, the Trustee and the Certificates of the Class corresponding to the series of the refinanced Equipment Notes, including, the subordination of the Refinancing Certificates to the extent provided herein to the Administration Expenses, the Liquidity Obligations and the Class A Certificates. Such issuance of Refinancing Equipment Notes and Refinancing Certificates and the amendment of this Agreement as provided below shall require Ratings Confirmation with respect to the Class A Certificates and shall not materially adversely affect any of the Trustees in their individual capacities or any of the Liquidity Providers. This Agreement shall be amended by written agreement of Delta and the Subordination Agent to give effect to the issuance of the Refinancing Certificates subject to the following terms and conditions:

     (i) the Refinancing Trustee shall be added as a party to this Agreement;

     (ii) the definitions of “Certificate”, “Class”, “Class B Certificates”, “Final Legal Distribution Date”, “Trust”, “Trust Agreement” and “Controlling Party” (and such other applicable definitions) shall be revised, as appropriate, to reflect such issuance (and the subordination of the Refinancing Certificates and the Refinancing Equipment Notes);

     (iii) the Refinancing Certificates may have the benefit of credit support similar to the initial Class B Liquidity Facility, if any, or different therefrom and claims for fees, interest, expenses, reimbursement of advances and other obligations arising from such credit support may rank pari passu with similar claims in respect of the initial Class B Liquidity Facility, if any;

     (iv) the Refinancing Certificates cannot be issued to Delta but may be issued to any of Delta’s Affiliates so long as such Affiliate shall have bankruptcy remote and special purpose provisions in its certificate of incorporation or other organizational documents and any subsequent transfer of the Refinancing Certificates to any Affiliate of Delta shall be similarly restricted; and

     (v) the scheduled payment dates on the Refinancing Equipment Notes shall be the Regular Distribution Dates.

          The issuance of the Refinancing Certificates in compliance with all of the foregoing terms of this Section 8.01(c) shall not require the consent of any of the Trustees or the holders of Class A Certificates. Each of the Liquidity Providers hereby agrees and confirms that it shall be deemed to consent to any issuance and amendment in accordance with this Section 8.01(c) and any such issuance and amendment shall not affect any of its respective

Intercreditor Agreement (2010-1)
(2010-1 EETC)

49

obligations under the applicable Liquidity Facility, provided that a condition to the issuance of any Refinancing Certificates shall be the payment in full of all amounts owed to the Class B Liquidity Provider, if any, and the termination of the Class B Liquidity Facility, if any, upon the issuance of the Refinancing Certificates. The Subordination Agent shall deliver to each Trustee and each Liquidity Provider a copy of the amendments made to this Agreement and all opinions, certificates and other documents delivered in connection with the issuance of any Refinancing Certificates.

          (d) Pursuant to the terms of Section 2.02 of each Indenture and Section 4(a)(v) of the Note Purchase Agreement, Series B Equipment Notes, which shall be subordinated in right of payment to the Series A Equipment Notes to the extent provided in the applicable Indenture, may be issued at any time. Series B Equipment Notes issued under any Indenture shall be issued to the Class B Trust that issues Class B Certificates to Class B Certificateholders pursuant to a Class B Trust Agreement with the Class B Trustee. The issuance of the Class B Certificates and the amendment of this Agreement as provided below (x) shall require Ratings Confirmation with respect to the Class A Certificates, (y) if the Class B Certificates are to have the benefit of a Class B Liquidity Facility and the Required Amount of the Class B Liquidity Facility would, at any date of determination, exceed the amount set forth in Schedule A attached hereto for the date most recently preceding such date of determination (assuming that, as of such date of determination, the Pool Balance of the Class B Certificates has been reduced by all Expected Distributions on the Class B Certificates in respect of all Distribution Dates prior to such date of determination), shall require the prior written consent of the Class A Liquidity Provider and (z) shall not materially adversely affect the Class A Trustee in its individual capacity. This Agreement shall be amended by written agreement of Delta and the Subordination Agent to give effect to the issuance of any Class B Certificates, provided that the following terms and conditions shall apply to any such amendment:

          (i) each of the Class B Trustee and (if applicable) the Class B Liquidity Provider shall be added as a party to this Agreement, all Class B Related Terms shall be revised, as appropriate, to reflect the issuance of the Class B Certificates and become effective upon the accession hereto of the Class B Trustee and (if applicable) the Class B Liquidity Provider, and the terms “Final Legal Distribution Date” and “Stated Interest Rate” shall be revised to specify such date and rate for the Class B Certificates;

          (ii) in the event that Class B Certificates are issued prior to the Delivery Period Termination Date, the definitions of Deposit Agreement, Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, Escrow Agent, Escrow Receipts, Paying Agent, Paying Agent Account, Expected Distributions, Final Distributions and Pool Balance (and any other applicable definition) and the related provisions hereof shall be appropriately revised to reflect any applicable deposit and escrow arrangement in relation to the Class B Certificates;

          (iii) the Class B Certificates may be rated by the Rating Agencies;

          (iv) if the Class B Certificates are to have the benefit of a Class B Liquidity Facility, Section 3.05 and any other provisions hereof shall be revised to the extent necessary to reflect the terms and conditions of the Class B Liquidity Facility, provided that such revisions shall not materially adversely affect the Class A Liquidity Provider;

          (v) the Class B Certificates cannot be issued to Delta but may be issued to any of Delta’s Affiliates so long as such Affiliate shall have bankruptcy remote and special purpose provisions in its certificate of incorporation or other organizational documents and any subsequent transfer of the Class B Certificates to any Affiliate of Delta shall be similarly restricted; and

          (vi) the scheduled payment dates on Series B Equipment Notes shall fall on a Regular Distribution Date; and

          (vii) nothing contained in this Section 8.01(d) shall permit any amendment that is otherwise prohibited by the second sentence of Section 8.01(a) unless, in the case of clause (ii) thereof, the Class A Certificateholders and the Class A Liquidity Provider (as determined in the Class A Liquidity Provider’s reasonable judgment) shall not be adversely affected with respect to the distribution of monies received by the Subordination Agent hereunder from the Equipment Notes or pursuant to the Class A Liquidity Facility.

          The issuance of the Class B Certificates in compliance with all of the foregoing terms of this Section 8.01(d) shall not require the consent of any of the Class A Trustee or the Class A Certificateholders. The Class A Liquidity Provider hereby agrees and confirms that it shall be deemed to consent to the issuance of the Class B Certificates and amendment in accordance with this Section 8.01(d) and any such issuance and amendment shall not affect any of its obligations under the Class A Liquidity Facility. The Subordination Agent shall deliver to the Class A Trustee and the Class A Liquidity Provider a copy of the amendments made to this Agreement and all opinions, certificates and other documents delivered in connection with the issuance of the Class B Certificates.

          (e) The parties hereto acknowledge that the Class B Related Terms have been included herein in contemplation of the issuance of Class B Certificates pursuant to Section 8.01(d) hereof. The parties hereto agree that prior to such issuance, the Class B Related Terms (other than as provided in Section 8.01(d) above and this Section 8.01(e)) shall be of no effect and shall be disregarded.

          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 or any Liquidity Facility, 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.

          Section 9.06. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements contained herein shall bind and inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, each of the parties hereto and the successors and permitted assigns of each, all as herein provided.

ARTICLE II

AMOUNT AND TERMS OF THE COMMITMENT

     Section 2.01 The Advances. The Liquidity Provider hereby irrevocably agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make Advances to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the Expiry Date (unless the obligations of the Liquidity Provider shall be earlier terminated in accordance with the terms of Section 2.04(b)) in an aggregate amount at any time outstanding not to exceed the Maximum Commitment.

     Section 2.02 Making of Advances. (a) Each Interest Advance shall be made by the Liquidity Provider upon delivery to the Liquidity Provider of a written and completed Notice of Borrowing in substantially the form of Annex I, signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, such Interest Advance to be in an amount not exceeding the Maximum Available

Commitment at such time and used solely for the payment when due of interest with respect to the Class A Certificates at the Stated Interest Rate therefor in accordance with Section 3.05(a) and 3.05(b) of the Intercreditor Agreement. Each Interest Advance made hereunder shall automatically reduce the Maximum Available Commitment and the amount available to be borrowed hereunder by subsequent Advances by the amount of such Interest Advance (subject to reinstatement as provided in the next sentence). Upon repayment to the Liquidity Provider in full or in part of the amount of any Interest Advance made pursuant to this Section 2.02(a), together with accrued interest thereon (as provided herein), the Maximum Available Commitment shall be reinstated by an amount equal to the amount of such Interest Advance so repaid, but not to exceed the Maximum Commitment; provided, however, that the Maximum Available Commitment shall not be so reinstated at any time if (x) both a Performing Note Deficiency exists and a Liquidity Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or (y) a Final Advance, a Downgrade Advance, a Non-Extension Advance or a Special Termination Advance shall have occurred.

          (b) (i) A Non-Extension Advance shall be made by the Liquidity Provider if this Agreement is not extended in accordance with Section 3.05(d) of the Intercreditor Agreement unless a Replacement Liquidity Facility to replace this Agreement shall have been previously delivered to the Borrower in accordance with said Section 3.05(d), upon delivery to the Liquidity Provider of a written and completed Notice of Borrowing in substantially the form of Annex II, signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, in an amount equal to the Maximum Available Commitment at such time, and shall be used to fund the Class A Cash Collateral Account in accordance with Sections 3.05(d) and 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement.

          (ii) A Downgrade Advance shall be made by the Liquidity Provider upon the occurrence of a Downgrade Event (as provided for in Section 3.05(c) of the Intercreditor Agreement) unless a Replacement Liquidity Facility to replace this Agreement shall have been previously delivered to the Borrower in accordance with said Section 3.05(c), upon delivery to the Liquidity Provider of a written and completed Notice of Borrowing in substantially the form of Annex III, signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, in an amount equal to the Maximum Available Commitment at such time, and shall be used to fund the Class A Cash Collateral Account in accordance with Sections 3.05(c) and 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement.

          (c) A Final Advance shall be made by the Liquidity Provider following the receipt by the Borrower of a Termination Notice from the Liquidity Provider pursuant to Section 6.01(a) upon delivery to the Liquidity Provider of a written and completed Notice of Borrowing in substantially the form of Annex IV, signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, in an amount equal to the Maximum Available Commitment at such time, and shall be used to fund the Class A Cash Collateral Account (in accordance with Sections 3.05(f) and 3.05(i) of the Intercreditor Agreement).

          (d) A Special Termination Advance shall be made in a single Borrowing upon the receipt by the Borrower of a Special Termination Notice from the Liquidity Provider pursuant to Section 6.01(b), by delivery to the Liquidity Provider of a written and completed

Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)
(2010-1 EETC)

9

Notice of Borrowing in substantially the form of Annex V, signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, in an amount equal to the Maximum Available Commitment at such time, and shall be used to fund the Class A Cash Collateral Account (in accordance with Section 3.05(f) and Section 3.05(k) of the Intercreditor Agreement).

          (e) Each Borrowing shall be made by notice in writing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) in substantially the form required by Section 2.02(a), 2.02(b), 2.02(c) or 2.02(d), as the case may be, given by the Borrower to the Liquidity Provider. If a Notice of Borrowing is delivered by the Borrower in respect of any Borrowing no later than 12:30 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day, upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 with respect to such requested Borrowing, the Liquidity Provider shall make available to the Borrower, in accordance with its payment instructions, the amount of such Borrowing in Dollars and immediately available funds, before 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Business Day or before 12:30 p.m. (New York City time) on such later Business Day specified in such Notice of Borrowing. If a Notice of Borrowing is delivered by the Borrower in respect of any Borrowing after 12:30 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day, upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 with respect to such requested Borrowing, the Liquidity Provider shall make available to the Borrower, in accordance with its payment instructions, the amount of such Borrowing in Dollars and immediately available funds, before 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the first Business Day next following the day of receipt of such Notice of Borrowing or on such later Business Day specified by the Borrower in such Notice of Borrowing. Payments of proceeds of a Borrowing shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Borrower in accordance with such wire transfer instructions as the Borrower shall furnish from time to time to the Liquidity Provider for such purpose. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be effective upon delivery of a copy thereof to the Liquidity Provider at the address and in the manner specified in Section 7.02 hereof.

          (f) Upon the making of any Advance requested pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing in accordance with the Borrower’s payment instructions, the Liquidity Provider shall be fully discharged of its obligation hereunder with respect to such Notice of Borrowing, and the Liquidity Provider shall not thereafter be obligated to make any further Advances hereunder in respect of such Notice of Borrowing to the Borrower or to any other Person (including the Class A Trustee or any Class A Certificateholder). If the Liquidity Provider makes an Advance requested pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing before 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the second Business Day after the date of payment specified in Section 2.02(e), the Liquidity Provider shall have fully discharged its obligations hereunder with respect to such Advance and an event of default shall not have occurred hereunder. Following the making of any Advance pursuant to Section 2.02(b), 2.02(c) or 2.02(d) to fund the Class A Cash Collateral Account, the Liquidity Provider shall have no interest in or rights to the Class A Cash Collateral Account, such Advance or any other amounts from time to time on deposit in the Class A Cash Collateral Account; provided that the foregoing shall not affect or impair the obligations of the Subordination Agent to make the distributions contemplated by Section 3.05(e) or 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement. By paying to the Borrower proceeds of Advances requested by the Borrower in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Liquidity Provider makes no

(2010-1 EETC)

10

representation as to, and assumes no responsibility for, the correctness or sufficiency for any purpose of the amount of the Advances so made and requested.

     Section 2.03 Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Liquidity Provider the fees set forth in the Fee Letter.

     Section 2.04 Reduction or Termination of the Maximum Commitment. (a) Automatic Reduction. Promptly following each date on which the Required Amount is reduced as a result of a reduction in the Pool Balance of the Class A Certificates, the Maximum Commitment shall automatically be reduced to an amount equal to such reduced Required Amount (as calculated by the Borrower). The Borrower shall give notice of any such automatic reduction of the Maximum Commitment to the Liquidity Provider and Delta within two Business Days thereof. The failure by the Borrower to furnish any such notice shall not affect any such automatic reduction of the Maximum Commitment.

          (b) Termination. Upon the making of any Provider Advance, Special Termination Advance or Final Advance hereunder or the occurrence of the Termination Date, the obligation of the Liquidity Provider to make further Advances hereunder shall automatically and irrevocably terminate, and the Borrower shall not be entitled to request any further Borrowing hereunder.

     Section 2.05 Repayments of Interest Advances, the Special Termination Advance or the Final Advance. Subject to Sections 2.06, 2.07 and 2.09 hereof, the Borrower hereby agrees, without notice of an Advance or demand for repayment from the Liquidity Provider (which notice and demand are hereby waived by the Borrower), to pay, or to cause to be paid, to the Liquidity Provider (a) on each date on which the Liquidity Provider shall make an Interest Advance, the Special Termination Advance or the Final Advance, an amount equal to the amount of such Advance (any such Advance, until repaid, is referred to herein as an “Unpaid Advance”), plus (b) interest on the amount of each such Unpaid Advance in the amounts and on the dates determined as provided in Section 3.07; provided that if (i) the Liquidity Provider shall make a Provider Advance at any time after making one or more Interest Advances which shall not have been repaid in accordance with this Section 2.05 or (ii) this Liquidity Facility shall become a Downgraded Facility or Non-Extended Facility at any time when unreimbursed Interest Advances have reduced the Maximum Available Commitment to zero, then such Interest Advances shall cease to constitute Unpaid Advances and shall be deemed to have been changed into an Applied Downgrade Advance or an Applied Non-Extension Advance, as the case may be, for all purposes of this Agreement (including, without limitation, for the purpose of determining when such Interest Advance is required to be repaid to the Liquidity Provider in accordance with Section 2.06 and for the purposes of Section 2.06(b)); provided, further, that amounts in respect of a Special Termination Advance withdrawn from the Class A Cash Collateral Account for the purpose of paying interest on the Class A Certificates in accordance with Section 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement (the portion of the outstanding Special Termination Advance equal to the amount of any such withdrawal, but not in excess of the outstanding Special Termination Advance, being an “Applied Special Termination Advance”) shall thereafter (subject to Section 2.06(b)) be treated as an Interest Advance under this Agreement for purposes of determining the Applicable Liquidity Rate for interest payable thereon; and provided, further,

Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)
(2010-1 EETC)

11

that if, following the making of a Special Termination Advance, the Liquidity Provider delivers a Termination Notice to the Borrower pursuant to Section 6.01(a), such Special Termination Advance (including any portion thereof that is an Applied Special Termination Advance) shall thereafter be treated as a Final Advance under this Agreement for purposes of determining the Applicable Liquidity Rate for interest payable thereon. The Borrower and the Liquidity Provider agree that the repayment in full of each Interest Advance, Special Termination Advance and Final Advance on the date such Advance is made is intended to be a contemporaneous exchange for new value given to the Borrower by the Liquidity Provider. For the avoidance of doubt, interest payable on an Interest Advance, Special Termination Advance or the Final Advance shall not be regarded as overdue unless such interest is not paid when due under Section 3.07.

     Section 2.06 Repayments of Provider Advances. (a) Amounts advanced hereunder in respect of a Provider Advance shall be deposited in the Class A Cash Collateral Account and invested and withdrawn from the Class A Cash Collateral Account as set forth in Sections 3.05(c), 3.05(d), 3.05(e) and 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement. Subject to Sections 2.07 and 2.09, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Liquidity Provider, on each Regular Distribution Date, commencing on the first Regular Distribution Date after the making of a Provider Advance, interest on the principal amount of any such Provider Advance, in the amounts determined as provided in Section 3.07; provided, however, that amounts in respect of a Provider Advance withdrawn from the Class A Cash Collateral Account for the purpose of paying interest on the Class A Certificates in accordance with Section 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement (the amount of any such withdrawal being (y), in the case of a Downgrade Advance, an “Applied Downgrade Advance” and (z) in the case of a Non-Extension Advance, an “Applied Non-Extension Advance” and together with an Applied Downgrade Advance, an “Applied Provider Advance”) shall thereafter (subject to Section 2.06(b)) be treated as an Interest Advance under this Agreement for purposes of determining the Applicable Liquidity Rate for interest payable thereon; provided, further, however, that if, following the making of a Provider Advance, the Liquidity Provider delivers a Termination Notice to the Borrower pursuant to Section 6.01(a), such Provider Advance shall thereafter be treated as a Final Advance under this Agreement for purposes of determining the Applicable Liquidity Rate for interest payable thereon. Subject to Sections 2.07 and 2.09, immediately upon the withdrawal of any amounts from the Class A Cash Collateral Account on account of a reduction in the Required Amount, the Borrower shall repay to the Liquidity Provider a portion of the Provider Advances in a principal amount equal to such reduction, plus interest on the principal amount so repaid as provided in Section 3.07.

          (b) At any time when an Applied Provider Advance or Applied Special Termination Advance (or any portion thereof) is outstanding, upon the deposit in the Class A Cash Collateral Account of any amount pursuant to clause “fourth” of Section 3.02 of the Intercreditor Agreement (any such amount being a “Replenishment Amount”) for the purpose of replenishing or increasing the balance thereof up to the Required Amount at such time, (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Applied Provider Advances and Applied Special Termination Advances (and of Provider Advances and Special Termination Advances treated as Interest Advances for purposes of determining the Applicable Liquidity Rate for interest payable thereon) shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such Replenishment Amount, and (ii) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Unapplied Provider Advances shall be automatically increased by the amount of such Replenishment Amount.

          (c) Upon the provision of a Replacement Liquidity Facility in replacement of this Agreement in accordance with Section 3.05(e) of the Intercreditor Agreement, as provided in Section 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement, amounts remaining on deposit in the Class A Cash Collateral Account after giving effect to any Applied Provider Advance on the date of such replacement shall be reimbursed to the Liquidity Provider, but only to the extent such amounts are necessary to repay in full to the Liquidity Provider all amounts owing to it hereunder.

     Section 2.07 Payments to the Liquidity Provider Under the Intercreditor Agreement. In order to provide for payment or repayment to the Liquidity Provider of any amounts hereunder, the Intercreditor Agreement provides that amounts available and referred to in Articles II and III of the Intercreditor Agreement, to the extent payable to the Liquidity Provider pursuant to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement), shall be paid to the Liquidity Provider in accordance with the terms thereof (but, for the avoidance of doubt, without duplication of or increase in any amounts payable hereunder). Amounts so paid to the Liquidity Provider shall be applied by the Liquidity Provider in the order of priority required by the applicable provisions of Articles II and III of the Intercreditor Agreement and shall discharge in full the corresponding obligations of the Borrower hereunder.

     Section 2.08 Book Entries. The Liquidity Provider shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower resulting from Advances made from time to time and the amounts of principal and interest payable hereunder and paid from time to time in respect thereof; provided, however, that the failure by the Liquidity Provider to maintain such account or accounts shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower in respect of Advances.

     Section 2.09 Payments from Available Funds Only. All payments to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement shall be made only from the amounts that constitute Scheduled Payments, Special Payments and other payments under the Operative Agreements, including payment under Section 4.02 of the Participation Agreements and payments under Section 2.14 of the Indentures, and only to the extent that the Borrower shall have sufficient income or proceeds therefrom to enable the Borrower to make payments in accordance with the terms hereof after giving effect to the priority of payments provisions set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement. The Liquidity Provider agrees that it will look solely to such amounts to the extent available for distribution to it as provided in the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement and that the Borrower, in its individual capacity, is not personally liable to it for any amounts payable or liability under this Agreement except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement or any Participation Agreement. Amounts on deposit in the Class A Cash Collateral Account shall be available to the Borrower to make payments under this Agreement only to the extent and for the purposes expressly contemplated in Section 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement.

     Section 2.10 Extension of the Expiry Date; Non-Extension Advance. No earlier than the 60th day and no later than the 40th day prior to the then effective Expiry Date (unless such Expiry Date is on or after the date that is 15 days after the Final Legal Distribution Date for the Class A Certificates), the Borrower shall request that the Liquidity Provider extend the Expiry

(2010-1 EETC)

13

Date to the earlier of (i) the date that is 15 days after the Final Legal Distribution Date for the Class A Certificates and (ii) the date that is the day immediately preceding the 364th day occurring after the last day of the Consent Period (as hereinafter defined). Whether or not the Borrower has made such request, the Liquidity Provider shall advise the Borrower no earlier than the 40th day (or, if earlier, the date of the Liquidity Provider’s receipt of such request, if any, from the Borrower) and no later than the 25th day prior to the then effective Expiry Date (such period, the “Consent Period”), whether, in its sole discretion, it agrees to so extend the Expiry Date. If the Liquidity Provider advises the Borrower on or before the date on which the Consent Period ends that such Expiry Date shall not be so extended, or fails to irrevocably and unconditionally advise the Borrower on or before the date on which the Consent Period ends that such Expiry Date shall be so extended (and, in each case, if the Liquidity Provider shall not have been replaced in accordance with Section 3.05(e) of the Intercreditor Agreement), the Borrower shall be entitled on and after the date on which the Consent Period ends (but prior to the then effective Expiry Date) to request a Non-Extension Advance in accordance with Section 2.02(b)(i) and Section 3.05(d) of the Intercreditor Agreement.

ARTICLE III

OBLIGATIONS OF THE BORROWER

     Section 3.01 Increased Costs. Without duplication of any rights created by Section 3.03, if as a result of any Regulatory Change there shall be any increase by an amount reasonably deemed by the Liquidity Provider to be material in the actual cost to the Liquidity Provider of making, funding or maintaining any LIBOR Advances or its obligation to make any such LIBOR Advances or there shall be any reduction by an amount reasonably deemed by the Liquidity Provider to be material in the amount receivable by the Liquidity Provider under this Agreement or the Intercreditor Agreement in respect thereof, and in case of either such an increase or reduction, such event does not arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Liquidity Provider, from its breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained herein or in the Intercreditor Agreement or from its failure to comply with any such Regulatory Change (any such increase or reduction being referred to herein as an “Increased Cost”), then, subject to Sections 2.07 and 2.09, the Borrower shall from time to time pay to the Liquidity Provider an amount equal to such Increased Cost within 10 Business Days after delivery to the Borrower and Delta of a certificate of an officer of the Liquidity Provider describing in reasonable detail the event by reason of which it claims such Increased Cost and the basis for the determination of the amount of such Increased Cost; provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay amounts only with respect to any Increased Costs accruing from the date 120 days prior to the date of delivery of such certificate. Such certificate, in the absence of manifest error, shall be considered prima facie evidence of the amount of the Increased Costs for purposes of this Agreement; provided that any determinations and allocations by the Liquidity Provider of the effect of any Regulatory Change on the costs of maintaining the Advances are made on a reasonable basis. For the avoidance of doubt, the Liquidity Provider shall not be entitled to assert any claim under this Section 3.01 in respect of or attributable to Excluded Taxes. The Liquidity Provider will notify the Borrower and Delta as promptly as practicable of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement that will entitle the Liquidity Provider to compensation under this Section 3.01. The Liquidity Provider agrees to investigate all

Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)
(2010-1 EETC)

14

commercially reasonable alternatives for reducing any Increased Costs and to use all commercially reasonable efforts to avoid or minimize, to the greatest extent possible, any claim in respect of Increased Costs, including, without limitation, by designating a different Lending Office, if such designation or other action would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such claim; provided that the foregoing shall not obligate the Liquidity Provider to take any action that would, in its reasonable judgment, cause the Liquidity Provider to take any action that is not materially consistent with its internal policies or is otherwise materially disadvantageous to the Liquidity Provider or that would cause the Liquidity Provider to incur any material loss or cost, unless the Borrower or Delta agrees to reimburse or indemnify the Liquidity Provider therefor. If no such designation or other action is effected, or, if effected, such notice fails to avoid the need for any claim in respect of Increased Costs, Delta may arrange for a Replacement Liquidity Facility in accordance with Section 3.05(e) of the Intercreditor Agreement.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, in no event shall the Borrower be required to make payments under this Section 3.01: (a) in respect of any Regulatory Change proposed by any applicable governmental authority (including any branch of a legislature), central bank or comparable agency of the United States or the Liquidity Provider’s jurisdiction of organization or in which its Lending Office is located and pending as of the date of this Agreement; (b) if a claim hereunder in respect of an Increased Cost arises through circumstances peculiar to the Liquidity Provider and that do not affect similarly organized commercial banking institutions in the same jurisdiction generally that are in compliance with the law, rule, regulation or interpretation giving rise to the Regulatory Change relating to such Increased Cost; (c) if the Liquidity Provider shall fail to comply with its obligations under this Section 3.01 or (d) if the Liquidity Provider is not also seeking payment for similar increased costs in other similarly situated transactions related to the airline industry.

     Section 3.02 Intentionally omitted.

     Section 3.03 Withholding Taxes. (a) All payments made by the Borrower under this Agreement shall be made without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes, unless such deduction or withholding is required by law. If any Taxes are so required to be withheld or deducted from any amounts payable to the Liquidity Provider under this Agreement, then, subject to Sections 2.07 and 2.09, the Borrower shall pay to the relevant authorities the full amount so required to be deducted or withheld and, without duplication of any rights created by Section 3.01, if such Taxes are Covered Taxes, pay to the Liquidity Provider such additional amounts as shall be necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by the Liquidity Provider (after deduction or withholding of all Covered Taxes) shall be equal to the full amount that would have been received by the Liquidity Provider had no withholding or deduction of Covered Taxes been required. The Liquidity Provider agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with applicable legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office if making such change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of the Liquidity Provider, be otherwise materially disadvantageous to the Liquidity Provider. If the Liquidity Provider receives a refund of, or realizes a net Tax benefit not otherwise available to it as a result of, any Taxes for which additional amounts were paid by the Borrower pursuant to

Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)
(2010-1 EETC)

15

this Section 3.03, the Liquidity Provider shall pay to the Borrower (for deposit into the Collection Account) the amount of such refund (and any interest thereon) or net benefit.

     The Liquidity Provider will (i) provide (on its behalf and on behalf of any participant holding a Participation pursuant to Section 7.08) to the Borrower (x) on or prior to the Effective Date two valid completed and executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI (whichever is applicable), including thereon a valid U.S. taxpayer identification number (or, with respect to any such participant, such other form or documentation as may be applicable) covering all amounts receivable by it in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Operative Agreements and (y) thereafter from time to time such additional forms or documentation as may be necessary to establish an available exemption from withholding of United States Tax on payments hereunder so that such forms or documentation are effective for all periods during which it is the Liquidity Provider and (ii) provide timely notice to the Borrower if any such form or documentation is or becomes inaccurate. The Liquidity Provider shall deliver to the Borrower such other forms or documents as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower or required by applicable law to establish that payments hereunder are exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of Covered Taxes.

          (b) All payments (including, without limitation, Advances) made by the Liquidity Provider under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without reduction for or on account of, any Taxes. If any Taxes are required to be withheld or deducted from any amounts payable to the Borrower under this Agreement, the Liquidity Provider shall (i) within the time prescribed therefor by applicable law pay to the appropriate governmental or taxing authority the full amount of any such Taxes (and any additional Taxes in respect of the additional amounts payable under clause (ii) hereof) and make such reports or returns in connection therewith at the time or times and in the manner prescribed by applicable law, and (ii) pay to the Borrower an additional amount which (after deduction of all such Taxes) will be sufficient to yield to the Borrower the full amount which would have been received by it had no such withholding or deduction been made. Within 30 days after the date of each payment hereunder, the Liquidity Provider shall furnish to the Borrower the original or a certified copy of (or other documentary evidence of) the payment of the Taxes applicable to such payment.

     If any exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, any Taxes required to be borne by the Liquidity Provider under this Section 3.03(b) is reasonably available to the Borrower without providing any information regarding the holders or beneficial owners of the Certificates, the Borrower shall deliver the Liquidity Provider such form or forms and such other evidence of the eligibility of the Borrower for such exemption or reductions (but without any requirement to provide any information regarding the holders or beneficial owners of the Certificates) as the Liquidity Provider may reasonably identify to the Borrower as being required as a condition to exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, such Taxes.

     Section 3.04 Payments. Subject to Sections 2.07 and 2.09, the Borrower shall make or cause to be made each payment to the Liquidity Provider under this Agreement so as to cause the same to be received by the Liquidity Provider not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day when due. The Borrower shall make all such payments in Dollars, to the Liquidity Provider in immediately available funds, by wire transfer to the account of Natixis S.A., acting

(2010-1 EETC)

16

via its New York Branch, [       ]; or to such other U.S. bank account as the Liquidity Provider may from time to time direct the Subordination Agent.

     Section 3.05 Computations. All computations of interest based on the Base Rate shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the LIBOR Rate shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable.

     Section 3.06 Payment on Non-Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and no additional interest shall be due as a result (and if so made, shall be deemed to have been made when due). If any payment in respect of interest on an Advance is so deferred to the next succeeding Business Day, such deferral shall not delay the commencement of the next Interest Period for such Advance (if such Advance is a LIBOR Advance) or reduce the number of days for which interest will be payable on such Advance on the next Interest Payment Date for such Advance.

     Section 3.07 Interest. (a) Subject to Sections 2.07 and 2.09, the Borrower shall pay, or shall cause to be paid, without duplication, interest on (i) the unpaid principal amount of each Advance from and including the date of such Advance (or, in the case of an Applied Provider Advance or Applied Special Termination Advance, from and including the date on which the amount thereof was withdrawn from the Class A Cash Collateral Account to pay interest on the Class A Certificates) to but excluding the date such principal amount shall be paid in full (or, in the case of an Applied Provider Advance or Applied Special Termination Advance, the date on which the Class A Cash Collateral Account is fully replenished in respect of such Advance) and (ii), to the extent permitted by law, any other amount due hereunder (whether fees, commissions, expenses or other amounts or installments of interest on Advances or any such other amount) that is not paid when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) from and including the due date thereof to but excluding the date such amount is paid in full, in each such case, at the interest rate per annum for each day that such amount remains overdue and unpaid equal to the Applicable Liquidity Rate for such Advance or such other amount, as the case may be, as in effect for such day, but in no event in any case referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above at a rate per annum greater than the maximum rate permitted by applicable law; provided, however, that, if at any time the otherwise applicable interest rate as set forth in this Section 3.07 shall exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, then to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law any subsequent reduction in such interest rate will not reduce the rate of interest payable pursuant to this Section 3.07 below the maximum rate permitted by applicable law until the total amount of interest accrued equals the absolute amount of interest that would have accrued (without additional interest thereon) if such otherwise applicable interest rate as set forth in this Section 3.07 had at all relevant times been in effect.

          (b) Except as provided in Section 3.07(e), each Advance will be either a Base Rate Advance or a LIBOR Advance as provided in this Section 3.07. Each such Advance will be a Base Rate Advance for the period from the date of its borrowing to (but excluding) the third Business Day following the Liquidity Provider’s receipt of the Notice of Borrowing for such

Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)
(2010-1 EETC)

17

Advance. Thereafter, such Advance shall be a LIBOR Advance; provided that a Provider Advance shall always be a LIBOR Advance unless the Borrower elects otherwise.

          (c) Each LIBOR Advance shall bear interest during each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin for such LIBOR Advance, payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period and, in the event of the payment of principal of such LIBOR Advance on a day other than such last day, on the date of such payment (to the extent of interest accrued on the amount of principal repaid.

          (d) Each Base Rate Advance shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for such Base Rate Advance, payable in arrears on each Regular Distribution Date and, in the event of the payment of principal of such Base Rate Advance on a day other than a Regular Distribution Date, on the date of such payment (to the extent of interest accrued on the amount of principal repaid).

          (e) Each outstanding Unapplied Non-Extension Advance shall bear interest in an amount equal to the Investment Earnings plus the Applicable Margin on amounts on deposit in the Class A Cash Collateral Account for such Unapplied Non-Extension Advance on the amount of such Unapplied Non-Extension Advance, from time to time, payable in arrears on each Regular Distribution Date.

          (f) Each amount not paid when due hereunder (whether fees, commissions, expenses or other amounts or installments of interest on Advances but excluding Advances) shall bear interest, to the extent permitted by applicable law, at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus 2.0% per annum until paid.

          (g) If at any time, the Liquidity Provider shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower, absent manifest error) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant interbank lending market generally, the LIBOR Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Liquidity Provider (as conclusively certified by the Liquidity Provider, absent manifest error) of making or maintaining Advances, the Liquidity Provider shall give facsimile or telephonic notice thereof (a “Rate Determination Notice”) to the Borrower. If such notice is given, then the outstanding principal amount of the LIBOR Advances shall be converted to Base Rate Advances effective from the date of the Rate Determination Notice; provided that the Applicable Liquidity Rate in respect of such Base Rate Advances shall be increased by one per cent (1.00%). The Liquidity Provider shall withdraw a Rate Determination Notice given hereunder when the Liquidity Provider determines that the circumstances giving rise to such Rate Determination Notice no longer apply to the Liquidity Provider, and the Base Rate Advances shall be converted to LIBOR Advances effective as the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period after the date of such withdrawal. Each change in the Base Rate shall become effective immediately. The rates of interest specified in this Section 3.07 with respect to any Advance or other amount shall be referred to as the “Applicable Liquidity Rate”.

     Section 3.08 Replacement of Borrower. Subject to Section 5.02, from time to time and subject to the successor Borrower’s meeting the eligibility requirements set forth in Section 6.09 of the Intercreditor Agreement applicable to the Subordination Agent, upon the effective date

Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)
(2010-1 EETC)

18

and time specified in a written and completed Notice of Replacement Subordination Agent in substantially the form of Annex VIII (a “Notice of Replacement Subordination Agent”) delivered to the Liquidity Provider by the then Borrower, the successor Borrower designated therein shall become the Borrower for all purposes hereunder.

     Section 3.09 Funding Loss Indemnification. The Borrower shall pay to the Liquidity Provider, upon the request of the Liquidity Provider, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of the Liquidity Provider) to compensate it for any loss, cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or redeployment of deposits or other funds acquired by the Liquidity Provider to fund or maintain any LIBOR Advance (but excluding loss of the Applicable Margin or anticipated profits) incurred as a result of:

     (1) Any repayment of a LIBOR Advance on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance; or

     (2) Any failure by the Borrower to borrow a LIBOR Advance on the date for borrowing specified in the relevant notice under Section 2.02.

     Section 3.10 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, if any change in any law, rule or regulation applicable to or binding on the Liquidity Provider, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by the Liquidity Provider with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall make it unlawful or impossible for the Liquidity Provider to maintain or fund its LIBOR Advances, then upon notice to the Borrower and Delta by the Liquidity Provider, the outstanding principal amount of the LIBOR Advances shall be converted to Base Rate Advances (a) immediately upon demand of the Liquidity Provider, if such change or compliance with such request, in the reasonable judgment of the Liquidity Provider, requires immediate conversion; or (b) at the expiration of the last Interest Period to expire before the effective date of any such change or request. The Liquidity Provider will notify the Borrower and Delta as promptly as practicable of any event that will or to its knowledge is reasonably likely to lead to the conversion of LIBOR Advances to Base Rate Advances under this Section 3.10; provided that a failure by the Liquidity Provider to notify the Borrower or Delta of an event that is reasonably likely to lead to such a conversion prior to the time that it is determined that such event will lead to such a conversion shall not prejudice the rights of the Liquidity Provider under this Section 3.10. The Liquidity Provider agrees to investigate all commercially reasonable alternatives for avoiding the need for such conversion, including, without limitation, designating a different Lending Office, if such designation or other action would avoid the need to convert such LIBOR Advances to Base Rate Advances; provided that the foregoing shall not obligate the Liquidity Provider to take any action that would, in its reasonable judgment, cause the Liquidity Provider to incur any material loss or cost, unless the Borrower or Delta agrees to reimburse or indemnify the Liquidity Provider therefor. If no such designation or other action is effected, or, if effected, fails to avoid the need for conversion of the LIBOR Advances to Base Rate Advances, Delta may arrange for a Replacement Liquidity Facility in accordance with Section 3.05(e) of the Intercreditor Agreement.

No such assignment shall release the Liquidity Provider from its obligations hereunder.

          (b) THE BORROWER AND THE LIQUIDITY PROVIDER EACH HEREBY AGREE TO WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED, including, without limitation, contract claims, tort claims, breach of duty claims and all other common law and statutory claims. The Borrower and the Liquidity Provider each warrant and represent that it has reviewed this waiver with its legal counsel, and that it knowingly and voluntarily waives its jury trial rights following consultation with such legal counsel.

As used in this Agreement, “Business Day” shall mean any day, other than a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which commercial banks are authorized or required by law to close in New York, New York, Atlanta, Georgia, Boston, Massachusetts or Wilmington, Delaware. The Depositary may waive the foregoing requirement that any Deposit can only be withdrawn on or after seven days after the establishment thereof, and may instead reserve the right, upon at least 14 days’ prior written notice to Delta, the Escrow Agent and the Pass Through Trustee, to require seven days’ notice for any withdrawal.

          (b) Final Withdrawal; Replacement Withdrawal; Event of Loss Withdrawal.

               (i) The Escrow Agent may, by providing at least 15 days’ prior notice of withdrawal to the Depositary in the form of Exhibit B hereto (a “Notice of Final Withdrawal”), withdraw (x) the entire amount of all of the remaining Deposits together with (y) all accrued and unpaid interest on such Deposits to but excluding the specified date of such withdrawal (such withdrawal of the amounts set forth in the immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y), the “Final Withdrawal”), on such date as shall be specified in such Notice of Final Withdrawal. If a Notice of Final Withdrawal has not been given to the Depositary on or before the Outside Termination Date (as defined below) and there are unwithdrawn Deposits on such

Deposit Agreement (Class A)
(2010-1 EETC)

3

date, the Depositary shall pay the amount of the Final Withdrawal to the Paying Agent on the Outside Termination Date. Following the Final Withdrawal of any Deposit, the balance in the related Account shall be reduced to zero and the Depositary shall close such Account. As used in this Agreement, the term “Outside Termination Date” shall mean December 31, 2010.

               (ii) The Escrow Agent may, by providing at least five Business Days’ prior notice of withdrawal to the Depositary in the form of Exhibit C hereto (a “Notice of Replacement Withdrawal”), withdraw (x) with respect to all Deposits then held by the Depositary, (1) the entire amount of such Deposits together with (2) all accrued and unpaid interest on such Deposits to but excluding the specified date of such Replacement Withdrawal (as defined below) and (y) with respect to all Deposits, if any, previously withdrawn pursuant to a Notice of Purchase Withdrawal, all accrued and unpaid interest on such Deposits to but excluding the date of the applicable Purchase Withdrawal (such withdrawal of the amounts set forth in the immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y), the “Replacement Withdrawal”), on such date as shall be specified in such Notice of Replacement Withdrawal.

               (iii) On and after the date seven days after the establishment of any Deposit, the Escrow Agent may, by providing at least 15 days’ prior notice of withdrawal to the Depositary in the form of Exhibit D hereto (a “Notice of Event of Loss Withdrawal”), withdraw (x) the entire balance of such Deposit together with (y) all accrued and unpaid interest on such Deposit to but excluding the specified date of such withdrawal (with respect to any Deposit, such withdrawal of the amounts set forth in the immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y), the “Event of Loss Withdrawal”), on such date as shall be specified in such Notice of Event of Loss Withdrawal. Following such Event of Loss Withdrawal, the balance in the related Account shall be reduced to zero and the Depositary shall close such Account. The Depositary may waive the foregoing requirement that any Deposit can only be withdrawn on or after seven days after the establishment thereof, and may instead reserve the right, upon at least 14 days’ prior written notice to Delta, the Escrow Agent and the Pass Through Trustee, to require seven days’ notice for any withdrawal.

          (c) Compliance with Withdrawal Notices. If the Depositary receives a duly completed Notice of Purchase Withdrawal, Notice of Final Withdrawal, Notice of Replacement Withdrawal or Notice of Event of Loss Withdrawal (each, a “Withdrawal Notice”) complying with the provisions of this Agreement, it shall make the payments specified therein in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no event shall the Depositary be required, pursuant to any Withdrawal Notice or otherwise, to make payments hereunder on or in respect of any Deposit in excess of the amount of such Deposit together with accrued interest thereon as provided in this Agreement.

     Section 2.4. Other Accounts. On the date of withdrawal of any Deposit (other than the date of any Final Withdrawal, Replacement Withdrawal or Event of Loss Withdrawal), the Escrow Agent, or the Pass Through Trustee on behalf of the Escrow Agent, shall re-deposit with the Depositary any portion thereof not used to acquire Equipment Notes and the Depositary shall accept the same for deposit hereunder. Any sums so received for deposit shall be established as a new Deposit and credited to a new Account, all as more fully provided in Section 2.1 hereof,

Deposit Agreement (Class A)
(2010-1 EETC)

and thereafter the provisions of this Agreement shall apply thereto as fully and with the same force and effect as if such Deposit had been established on the Deposit Date except that such Deposit may not be withdrawn prior to the date seven days after the establishment thereof. The Depositary may waive the foregoing requirement that any Deposit can only be withdrawn on or after seven days after the establishment thereof, and may instead reserve the right, upon at least 14 days’ prior written notice to Delta, the Escrow Agent and the Pass Through Trustee, to require seven days’ notice for any withdrawal.

     SECTION 3. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate on the fifth Business Day after the later of the date on which (i) all of the Deposits shall have been withdrawn and paid as provided herein without any re-deposit and (ii) all accrued and unpaid interest on the Deposits shall have been paid as provided herein, but in no event prior to the date on which the Depositary shall have performed in full its obligations hereunder.

     SECTION 4. Payments. All payments made by the Depositary hereunder shall be paid in United States Dollars and immediately available funds by wire transfer (i) in the cases of (w) accrued and unpaid interest on the Deposits payable under Section 2.2 hereof, (x) any Final Withdrawal, (y) any Event of Loss Withdrawal or (z) accrued and unpaid interest on all Deposits, if any, previously withdrawn pursuant to a Notice of Purchase Withdrawal, which interest is payable pursuant to a Notice of Replacement Withdrawal, directly to the Paying Agent at [     ], or to such other account as the Paying Agent may direct from time to time in writing to the Depositary and the Escrow Agent, (ii) in the case of any withdrawal of one or more Deposits pursuant to a Notice of Purchase Withdrawal, directly to or as directed by the Pass Through Trustee as specified and in the manner provided in such Notice of Purchase Withdrawal, and (iii) the case of any withdrawal of one or more Deposits then held by the Depositary together with accrued and unpaid interest on such Deposits pursuant to a Notice of Replacement Withdrawal, as directed by the Pass Through Trustee as specified and in the manner provided in such Notice of Replacement Withdrawal. The Depositary hereby waives any and all rights of set-off, combination of accounts, right of retention or similar right (whether arising under applicable law, contract or otherwise) it may have against the Deposits howsoever arising. To the extent permitted by applicable law, all payments on or in respect of each Deposit shall be made free and clear of and without reduction for or on account of any and all taxes, levies or other impositions or charges (collectively, “Taxes”). However, if the Depositary shall be required by law (or if the Paying Agent shall have notified the Depositary that, pursuant to Section 2.04 of the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, the Paying Agent is required by law) to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder, the Depositary shall (i) make, or cause to be made, such deductions or withholding and (ii) pay, or cause to be paid, the full amount deducted or withheld to the competent taxation authority in accordance with applicable law. If the date on which any payment due on any Deposit would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no additional interest shall accrue in respect of such extension.

     SECTION 5. Representation and Warranties. The Depositary hereby represents and warrants to Delta, the Escrow Agent, the Pass Through Trustee and the Paying Agent that:

No Receiptholder shall have any right to vote or in any manner otherwise control the operation and management of the Paying Agent Account (as defined below) or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor shall anything set forth herein, or contained in the terms of any Escrow Receipt, be construed so as to constitute the Receiptholders from time to time as partners or members of an association.

If (a) any mutilated Escrow Receipt is surrendered to the Escrow Agent or the Escrow Agent receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Escrow Receipt and (b) there is delivered to the Escrow Agent and the Pass Through Trustee such security, indemnity or bond, as may be required by them to hold each of them harmless, then, absent notice to the Escrow Agent or the Pass Through Trustee that such destroyed, lost or stolen Escrow Receipt has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, and provided that the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in any applicable jurisdiction are met, the Escrow Agent shall execute and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Escrow Receipt, a new Escrow Receipt or Escrow Receipts and of like Escrow Interest in the Account Amounts and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

     In connection with the issuance of any new Escrow Receipt under this Section 1.05, the Escrow Agent may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Pass Through Trustee and the Escrow Agent) connected therewith.

     Any duplicate Escrow Receipt issued pursuant to this Section 1.05 shall constitute conclusive evidence of the appropriate Escrow Interest in the Account Amounts, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Escrow Receipt shall be found at any time.

     The provisions of this Section 1.05 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Escrow Receipts.

     Section 1.08. Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentment of a Certificate for registration of transfer, the Escrow Agent and the Paying Agent may treat the Person in whose name any Escrow Receipt is registered (as of the day of determination) as the owner of such Escrow Receipt for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to this Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Escrow Agent nor the Paying Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

     Section 1.09. Further Assurances. Without limiting Sections 4 and 8 of this Agreement, the Escrow Agent agrees to take such actions, and execute such other documents, as may be reasonably requested by the Pass Through Trustee in order to effectuate the purposes of this Agreement, the Note Purchase Agreement or the Deposit Agreement and the performance by the Escrow Agent of its obligations hereunder or thereunder.

[Reg. No.]

     (x) any Claim to the extent such Claim is an ordinary and usual operating or overhead expense or not an out-of-pocket expense actually incurred;

     (xi) any Claim to the extent such Claim is incurred on account of or asserted as a result of any “prohibited transaction” within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code;

     (xii) any Claim to the extent such Claim is attributable to one or more of the other aircraft financed through the offering of Pass Through Certificates (in the event of doubt, any Claim shall be allocated between the Aircraft and such other aircraft in the same proportion that the then outstanding Equipment Notes bear to the then outstanding equipment notes issued with respect to the other aircraft and held by Pass Through Trustees);

     (xiii) any Claim to the extent such Claim is attributable to any amount which any Indemnitee expressly agrees shall not be paid by, borne by, or reimbursed by Company;

     (e) Insured Claims. In the case of any Claim indemnified by Company hereunder that is covered by a policy of insurance maintained by Company, each Indemnitee agrees to cooperate, at Company’s expense, with the insurers in the exercise of their rights to investigate, defend and compromise such Claim.

     (f) Claims Procedure. An Indemnitee shall promptly notify Company of any Claim as to which indemnification is sought. The failure to provide such prompt notice shall not release Company from any of its obligations to indemnify hereunder except to the extent that Company is prejudiced by such failure or

Participation Agreement (2010-1 EETC)
[Reg. No.]

15

Company’s indemnification obligations are increased as a result of such failure (in which event Company shall not be responsible for such additional indemnification obligations). Such Indemnitee shall promptly submit to Company all additional information in such Indemnitee’s possession to substantiate such Claim as Company reasonably requests. Subject to the rights of Company’s insurers, Company may, at its sole cost and expense, investigate any Claim, and may in its sole discretion defend or compromise any Claim. At Company’s expense, any Indemnitee shall cooperate with all reasonable requests of Company in connection therewith. Such Indemnitee shall not enter into a settlement or other compromise with respect to any Claim without the prior written consent of Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless such Indemnitee waives its right to be indemnified with respect to such Claim. Where Company or its insurers undertake the defense of an Indemnitee with respect to a Claim, no additional legal fees or expenses of such Indemnitee in connection with the defense of such Claim shall be indemnified hereunder unless such fees or expenses were incurred at the written request of Company or such insurers. Subject to the requirements of any policy of insurance, an Indemnitee may participate at its own expense in any judicial proceeding controlled by Company pursuant to the preceding provisions; provided that such party’s participation does not, in the opinion of outside counsel appointed by Company or its insurers to conduct such proceedings, interfere with such control. Such participation shall not constitute a waiver of the indemnification provided in this Section 4.02. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Company shall not under any circumstances be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all Indemnitees with respect to any one Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, an Indemnitee shall not under any circumstances be required or deemed to be required to contest any Claim or to assume responsibility for or control of any judicial proceeding with respect thereto. Company will provide the relevant Indemnitee with such information not within the control of such Indemnitee, as is in Company’s control or is reasonably available to Company, which such Indemnitee may reasonably request and will otherwise cooperate with such Indemnitee so as to enable such Indemnitee to fulfill its obligations under this Section.

     (g) Subrogation. To the extent that a Claim is in fact paid in full by Company or its insurer, Company or such insurer (as the case may be) shall, without any further action, be subrogated to the rights and remedies of the Indemnitee on whose behalf such Claim was paid with respect to the transaction or event giving rise to such Claim. Such Indemnitee shall give such further assurances or agreements and shall cooperate with Company or such insurer, as the case may be, to permit Company or such insurer to pursue such rights and remedies, if any, to the extent reasonably requested by Company. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, if an Indemnitee receives any

Participation Agreement (2010-1 EETC)
[Reg. No.]

16

payment, in whole or in part, from any party other than Company or its insurers with respect to any Claim paid by Company or its insurers, it shall promptly pay over to Company the amount received (but not an amount in excess of the amount Company or any of its insurers has paid in respect of such Claim). Any amount referred to in the preceding sentence that is payable to Company shall not be paid to Company, or, if it has been previously paid directly to Company, shall not be retained by Company, if at the time of such payment an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, but shall be paid to and held by Loan Trustee as security for the obligations of Company under the Operative Documents. If Company agrees, such amount payable shall be applied against Company’s obligations thereunder when and as they become due and payable. At such time as such Event of Default is no longer continuing, such amount, to the extent not previously so applied against Company’s obligations, shall be paid to Company.

     (h) No Guaranty. Nothing set forth in this Section 4.02 constitutes a guarantee by Company that the Aircraft at any time will have any particular value, useful life or residual value.

     (i) Payments; Interest. Any amount payable to any Indemnitee on account of a Claim shall be paid within 30 days after receipt by Company of a written demand therefor from such Indemnitee accompanied by a written statement describing in reasonable detail the Claims that are the subject of and basis for such indemnity and the computation of the amount payable. Any payments made pursuant to this Section 4.02 directly to an Indemnitee or to Company, as the case may be, shall be made in immediately available funds at such bank or to such account as is specified by the payee in written directions to the payor or, if no such directions are given, by check of the payor payable to the order of the payee and mailed to the payee by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid to its address referred to in Section 7.01. To the extent permitted by applicable law, interest at the Past Due Rate shall be paid, on demand, on any amount or indemnity not paid when due pursuant to this Section 4.02 until the same is paid. Such interest shall be paid in the same manner as the unpaid amount in respect of which such interest is due.

     (j) Tax Deduction or Credit. If, by reason of any payment made to or for the account of any Indemnitee by Company, or by reason of any Claim of any Indemnitee paid or indemnified against by Company, in each case pursuant to Section 4.02, such Indemnitee realizes a Tax deduction or credit not previously taken into account in computing such payment, such Indemnitee shall promptly pay to Company an amount equal to the sum of (i) the actual reduction in Taxes realized by such Indemnitee which is attributable to such deduction or credit, and (ii) the actual reduction in Taxes realized by such Indemnitee as a result of any payment made by such Indemnitee pursuant to this sentence; provided that the amount payable by such Indemnitee pursuant to this sentence shall not exceed the

Participation Agreement (2010-1 EETC)
[Reg. No.]

17

sum of all amounts previously paid by Company to such Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 4.02; provided, further, that any such excess shall be carried forward and applied to reduce pro tanto any subsequent obligations of Company to make payments to such Indemnitee pursuant to Section 4.02. If such Tax deduction or credit is subsequently disallowed or lost, upon written notice from the Indemnitee Company shall promptly repay all amounts paid to it pursuant to this Section 4.02(j) in respect of such disallowed or lost deduction or credit. If, at the time an amount would otherwise be payable to Company under this Section 4.02(j), any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such amount shall be held by the relevant Indemnitee as security for the obligations of Company under the Operative Documents. At such time as no Event of Default is continuing, such amount or portion thereof shall be applied to offset Company’s outstanding obligations under the Operative Documents and any remaining amount after such application shall be paid to Company.

     Section 2.02 Issuance and Terms of Equipment Notes. The Equipment Notes shall be dated the date of issuance thereof, shall be issued in (a) separate Series consisting of Series A Equipment Notes and, if issued, Series B Equipment Notes and (b) the maturities and principal amounts and shall bear interest at the applicable Debt Rates specified in Schedule I (as, in the case of any Series B Equipment Notes issued after the Closing Date, such Schedule I may be amended in connection with such issuance). On the Closing Date, each Series A Equipment Note and, if issued, Series B Equipment Note shall be issued to Subordination Agent on behalf of each of Pass Through Trustees of the Pass Through Trusts then in existence for the applicable Pass Through Trust created under the Pass Through Trust Agreements referred to in Schedule II. If no Series B Equipment Notes are issued on the Closing Date, then, subject to compliance with the conditions set forth in Section 4(a)(v) of the Note Purchase Agreement, Section 2.02 of the Participation Agreement and Section 8.01(d) of the Intercreditor Agreement, Company shall have the option to issue Series B Equipment Notes after the Closing Date. In addition, if all of the Series B Equipment Notes (whether issued on or after the Closing Date) shall have been redeemed pursuant to Section 2.11(b), if, simultaneously with such redemption, new Series B Equipment Notes, which may have terms different from those of the redeemed Series B Equipment Notes, are being issued, Company shall, subject to compliance with the conditions set forth in Section 4(a)(v) of the Note Purchase Agreement, Section 2.02 of the Participation Agreement and Section 8.01(c) of the Intercreditor Agreement, issue new Series B Equipment Notes with the same Series B designation as, but with the terms that may differ from those of, the redeemed Series B Equipment Notes. Any Series B Equipment Notes issued after the Closing Date pursuant to any of the two immediately preceding sentences shall have such maturities, principal amounts and interest rate as specified in Schedule I hereto in respect of Series B Equipment Notes, as amended in connection with any such issuance. The Equipment Notes shall be issued in registered form only. The Equipment Notes shall be issued in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof, except that one Equipment Note

of each Series may be in an amount that is not an integral multiple of $1,000. Without limitation of the foregoing, if any Series B Equipment Notes shall have been issued hereunder, new Series B Equipment Notes may be issued pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.11(b).

     Each Equipment Note shall bear interest at the Debt Rate specified for the applicable Series (calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days comprised of twelve 30-day months), payable in arrears on each Payment Date on the unpaid principal amount thereof from time to time outstanding from the most recent Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or, if no interest has been so paid or provided for, from the date of issuance of such Equipment Note) until such principal amount is paid in full, as further provided in the form of Equipment Note set forth in Section 2.01. The principal amount of each Series A Equipment Note and, if issued, Series B Equipment Note shall be payable in installments or in a single payment on the Payment Dates set forth in Schedule I to such Equipment Note, each such installment, if any, to be in an amount computed by multiplying the original principal amount of such Equipment Note by the corresponding percentage set forth in Schedule I hereto (as, in the case of any Series B Equipment Notes issued after the Closing Date, such Schedule I may be amended in connection with such issuance) applicable to such Series, the applicable portion of which shall be attached as Schedule I to such Equipment Note, opposite the Payment Date on which such installment is due. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the final payment made under each Equipment Note shall be in an amount sufficient to discharge in full the unpaid principal amount and all accrued and unpaid interest on, and any other amounts due under, such Equipment Note. Each Equipment Note shall bear interest, payable on demand, at the Past Due Rate (and not at the Debt Rate) (calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days comprised of twelve 30-day months) on any principal amount and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) Make-Whole Amount, if any, interest and any other amounts payable thereunder not paid when due for any period during which the same is overdue, in each case for the period the same is overdue. Amounts shall be overdue under an Equipment Note if not paid in the manner provided herein when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if any date on which a payment hereunder or under any Equipment Note becomes due and payable is not a Business Day, then such payment shall not be made on such scheduled date but shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such scheduled date, and if such payment is made on such next succeeding Business Day, no interest shall accrue on the amount of such payment from and after such scheduled date.

     The Equipment Notes shall be executed on behalf of Company by the manual or facsimile signature of one of its authorized officers. Equipment Notes bearing the signatures of individuals who were at the time of execution the proper officers of Company shall bind Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Equipment

Notes or did not hold such offices at the respective dates of such Equipment Notes. No Equipment Note shall be secured by or entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purposes unless there appears on such Equipment Note a certificate of authentication in the form provided herein executed by Loan Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized officers, and such certificate upon any Equipment Notes shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Equipment Note has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

     Section 2.03 Method of Payment. The principal amount of, interest on, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and, except to the extent expressly provided herein, all other amounts due under each Equipment Note or otherwise payable hereunder shall be payable by Company in Dollars by wire transfer of immediately available funds not later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the due date of payment to Loan Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office for distribution among Noteholders in the manner provided herein, and payment of such amount by Company to Loan Trustee shall be deemed to satisfy Company’s obligation to make such payment. Company shall not have any responsibility for the distribution of such payment to any Noteholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision in any Equipment Note to the contrary, Loan Trustee will use reasonable efforts to pay or cause to be paid, if so directed in writing by any Noteholder (with a copy to Company), all amounts paid by Company hereunder and under such Noteholder’s Equipment Note or Equipment Notes to such Noteholder or a nominee therefor (including all amounts distributed pursuant to Article III) by transferring, or causing to be transferred, by wire transfer of immediately available funds in Dollars, prior to 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the due date of payment, to an account maintained by such Noteholder with a bank located in the continental United States the amount to be distributed to such Noteholder, for credit to the account of such Noteholder maintained at such bank; provided that, in the event the Equipment Notes are not held by Subordination Agent on behalf of Pass Through Trustees, Loan Trustee shall, unless instructed by Company to use another method, pay such amounts by check mailed to Noteholder’s address as it appears on the Equipment Note Register. If, after its receipt of funds at the place and prior to the time specified above in the immediately preceding sentence, Loan Trustee fails (other than as a result of a failure of Noteholder to provide it with wire transfer instructions) to make any such payment required to be paid by wire transfer as provided in the immediately preceding sentence on the Business Day it receives such funds, Loan Trustee, in its individual capacity and not as trustee, agrees to compensate such Noteholders for loss of use of funds at the Federal Funds Rate until such payment is made and Loan Trustee shall be entitled to any interest earned on such funds until such payment is made. Any payment made hereunder shall be made without any presentment or surrender of any Equipment Note, except that, in the case of the final payment in respect of any Equipment Note, such Equipment Note shall be surrendered to Loan Trustee for cancellation. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary, Loan Trustee shall not be required to make, or cause to be made, wire transfers as aforesaid prior to the first Business Day on which it is practicable for Loan

Trustee to do so in view of the time of day when the funds to be so transferred were received by it if such funds were received after 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) at the place of payment, in which case Loan Trustee shall make such required payment on the next succeeding Business Day. So long as any signatory to the Participation Agreement or nominee thereof shall be a registered Noteholder, all payments to it shall be made to the account of such Noteholder specified in Schedule I to the Participation Agreement and otherwise in the manner provided in or pursuant to the Participation Agreement unless it shall have specified some other account or manner of payment by notice to Loan Trustee consistent with this Section 2.03.

     Section 2.04 Withholding Taxes. Loan Trustee shall exclude and withhold at the appropriate rate from each payment of principal amount of, interest on, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and other amounts due hereunder or under each Equipment Note (which exclusion and withholding shall constitute payment of such amounts payable hereunder or in respect of such Equipment Notes, as applicable) any and all withholding taxes applicable thereto as required by law. Loan Trustee agrees to act as such withholding agent and, in connection therewith, whenever any present or future taxes or similar charges are required to be withheld with respect to any amounts payable hereunder or in respect of the Equipment Notes, to withhold such amounts (which withholding shall constitute payment of such amounts payable hereunder or in respect of such Equipment Notes, as applicable) and timely pay the same to the appropriate authority in the name of and on behalf of Noteholders, that it will file any necessary withholding tax returns or statements when due, and that as promptly as possible after the payment thereof it will deliver to each Noteholder (with a copy to Company) appropriate documentation showing the payment thereof, together with such additional documentary evidence as any such Noteholder may reasonably request from time to time. Loan Trustee agrees to file any other information reports it is required to file under United States law.

     Section 2.05 Application of Payments. Subject always to Section 2.13 and except as otherwise provided in Article III, in the case of each Equipment Note, each payment of an installment of principal amount, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest paid thereon shall be applied:

          first, to the payment of accrued interest on such Equipment Note (as well as any interest on (i) any overdue principal amount, and (ii) to the extent permitted by law, any overdue Make-Whole Amount, if any, any overdue interest and any other overdue amounts thereunder) to the date of such payment;

          second, to the payment of Make-Whole Amount, if any, with respect to such Equipment Note;

          third, to the payment of the principal amount of such Equipment Note (or portion thereof) then due thereunder, if any; and

[Reg. No.]

18

          fourth, the balance, if any, remaining thereafter, to the payment of installments of the principal amount of such Equipment Note (or portion thereof) remaining unpaid in the inverse order of their maturity.

     Section 2.06 Termination of Interest in Collateral. No Noteholder, Indenture Indemnitee or Related Indenture Indemnitee shall, as such, have any further interest in, or other right with respect to, the Collateral when and if (i) the principal amount of, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest (including, to the extent permitted by applicable law, post-petition interest and interest on any overdue amounts) on and all other amounts due under all Equipment Notes held by such Noteholder and all other sums then due and payable to such Noteholder or Indenture Indemnitee, as the case may be, hereunder (including, without limitation, under Section 2.14) and under the Participation Agreement by Company and (ii) all Related Secured Obligations ((i) and (ii), collectively, “Secured Obligations”) have been paid in full.

     Section 2.07 Registration, Transfer and Exchange of Equipment Notes. Loan Trustee shall keep a register or registers (the “Equipment Note Register”) in which Loan Trustee shall provide for the registration of Equipment Notes and the registration of transfers of Equipment Notes. No such transfer shall be given effect unless and until registration hereunder shall have occurred. The Equipment Note Register shall be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of Loan Trustee. Loan Trustee is hereby appointed “Equipment Note Registrar” for the purpose of registering Equipment Notes and transfers of Equipment Notes as herein provided. A holder of any Equipment Note intending to exchange or transfer such Equipment Note shall surrender such Equipment Note to Loan Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office, together with a written request from the registered holder thereof for the issuance of a new Equipment Note of the same Series, specifying, in the case of a surrender for transfer, the name and address of the new holder or holders. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Equipment Note and subject to satisfaction of Section 2.09, Company shall execute, and Loan Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Equipment Notes of an equal aggregate principal amount and of the same Series. At the option of Noteholder, Equipment Notes may be exchanged for other Equipment Notes of the same Series of any authorized denominations of an equal aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Equipment Notes to be exchanged to Loan Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office. Whenever any Equipment Notes are so surrendered for exchange, Company shall execute, and Loan Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Equipment Notes which Noteholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. All Equipment Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Equipment Notes (whether under this Section 2.07 or under Section 2.08 or otherwise under this Indenture) shall be the valid obligations of Company evidencing the same respective obligations, and entitled to the same security and benefits under this Indenture, as the Equipment Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. Every Equipment Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer shall (if so required by Company or

Indenture and Security Agreement (2010-1 EETC)
[Reg. No.]

19

Loan Trustee) be duly endorsed or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to Loan Trustee, duly executed by Noteholder or such Noteholder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and Company and Loan Trustee shall require evidence satisfactory to it as to the compliance of any such transfer with the Securities Act and the securities laws of any applicable state or jurisdiction. Loan Trustee shall make a notation on each new Equipment Note of the amount of all payments of principal amount previously made on the old Equipment Note or Equipment Notes with respect to which such new Equipment Note is issued and the date to which interest on such old Equipment Note or Equipment Notes has been paid. Principal, interest and all other amounts shall be deemed to have been paid on such new Equipment Note to the date on which such amounts have been paid on such old Equipment Note. Company shall not be required to exchange any surrendered Equipment Notes as provided above (a) during the ten-day period preceding the due date of any payment on such Equipment Note or (b) that has been called for redemption. Company and Loan Trustee shall in all cases deem and treat the Person in whose name any Equipment Note has been issued and registered on the Equipment Note Register as the absolute owner and Noteholder of such Equipment Note for the purpose of receiving payment of all amounts payable with respect to such Equipment Note and for all other purposes, and neither Company nor Loan Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. Loan Trustee will promptly notify Company of each registration of a transfer of an Equipment Note. Any such transferee of an Equipment Note, by its acceptance of an Equipment Note, agrees to the provisions of the Indenture, the Related Indentures, the Participation Agreement, the other Operative Documents and the Pass Through Documents applicable to Noteholders or, in the case of each Related Indenture, Related Noteholders, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any such transferee of an Equipment Note, by its acceptance of an Equipment Note: (i) agrees to the applicable provisions of Sections 6.01, 7.10 and 7.11 of the Participation Agreement, and shall be deemed to have represented, warranted and covenanted to the parties to the Participation Agreement as to the matters represented, warranted and covenanted by Noteholders, including Pass Through Trustees, in the Participation Agreement and (ii) agrees to the restrictions set forth in Sections 4.01(a)(ii) and 4.01(a)(iii) of the Intercreditor Agreement, and shall be deemed to have covenanted to the parties to the Intercreditor Agreement not to give any direction to, or otherwise authorize, Loan Trustee to take any action that would violate Sections 4.01(a)(ii) or 4.01(a)(iii) of the Intercreditor Agreement. Subject to compliance by Noteholder and any transferee of the requirements set forth in this Section 2.07 and in Section 2.09, Loan Trustee and Company shall use all reasonable efforts to issue new Equipment Notes upon transfer or exchange within ten Business Days of the date an Equipment Note is surrendered for transfer or exchange.

     Section 2.08 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Equipment Notes. If any Equipment Note becomes mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, Company shall, upon the written request of the holder of such Equipment Note and subject to satisfaction of this Section 2.08 and of Section 2.09, execute and Loan Trustee shall authenticate and deliver

If the Equipment Note being replaced has become mutilated, such Equipment Note shall be surrendered to Loan Trustee, and a photocopy thereof shall be furnished to Company. If the Equipment Note being replaced has been destroyed, lost or stolen, the holder of such Equipment Note shall furnish to Company and Loan Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save Company and Loan Trustee harmless and evidence satisfactory to Company and Loan Trustee of the destruction, loss or theft of such Equipment Note and of the ownership thereof.

     Section 2.09 Payment of Expenses on Transfer; Cancellation.

     (a) No service charge shall be made to a Noteholder for any registration of transfer or exchange of Equipment Notes, but Loan Trustee, as Equipment Note Registrar, may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any Tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Equipment Notes.

Collateral and may exercise all rights and powers of Company relating to the Collateral as Loan Trustee reasonably deems best, including the right to enter into any and all such agreements with respect to the maintenance, use, operation, storage, insurance, leasing, control, management or disposition of the Collateral or any part thereof as Loan Trustee may reasonably determine; and Loan Trustee shall be entitled to collect and receive directly all tolls, rents, revenues, issues, income, products and profits of the Collateral and every part thereof without prejudice, however, to the rights of Loan Trustee under any provision of this Indenture to collect and receive all cash held by, or required to be deposited with Loan Trustee hereunder. Such tolls, rents, revenues, issues, income, products and profits shall be applied to pay the expenses of the use, operation, storage, insurance, leasing, control, management or disposition of the Collateral, and of all maintenance, repairs, replacements, alterations, additions and improvements, and to make all payments that Loan Trustee is required or elects to make, if any, for Taxes, insurance or other proper charges assessed against or otherwise imposed upon the Collateral or any part thereof, and all other payments which Loan Trustee is required or expressly authorized to make under any provision of this Indenture, as well as just and reasonable compensation for the services of Loan Trustee, and shall otherwise be applied in accordance with Article III. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Equipment Notes either have been accelerated pursuant to this Section 4.02 or have become due at maturity and Loan Trustee is entitled to exercise rights hereunder, at the request of Loan Trustee, Company shall promptly execute and deliver to Loan Trustee such instruments of title and other documents as Loan Trustee reasonably deems necessary or advisable to enable Loan Trustee or an agent or representative designated by Loan Trustee, at such time or times and place or places as Loan Trustee specifies, to obtain possession of all or any part of the Collateral to which Loan Trustee at the time is entitled hereunder. If Company for any reason fails to execute and deliver such instruments and documents after such request by Loan Trustee, Loan Trustee may seek a judgment conferring on Loan Trustee the right to immediate possession and requiring Company to execute and deliver such instruments and documents to Loan Trustee, to the entry of which judgment Company hereby specifically consents to the fullest extent it may lawfully do so. All actual and reasonable expenses of obtaining such judgment or of pursuing, searching for and taking such property shall, until paid, be secured by the Lien of this Indenture.

     (b) Loan Trustee shall give Company at least 30 days’ prior written notice of any public sale or of the date on or after which any private sale will be held, which notice Company hereby agrees to the extent permitted by applicable law is reasonable notice. Any Noteholder or Noteholders shall be entitled to bid for and become the purchaser of any Collateral offered for sale pursuant to this Section 4.02 and to credit against the purchase price bid at such sale by such Noteholders all or any part of the unpaid amounts owing to such Noteholders under the Operative Documents and secured by the Lien of this Indenture (but only to the extent that such purchase price would have been paid to such Noteholders pursuant to Article III if such purchase price were paid in cash and the

foregoing provision of this Section 4.02(b) were not given effect). Loan Trustee may exercise such right without possession or production of the Equipment Notes or proof of ownership thereof, and as a representative of Noteholders may exercise such right without notice to Noteholders as party to any suit or proceeding relating to the foreclosure of any Collateral. Company may also bid for and become the purchaser of any Collateral offered for sale pursuant to this Section 4.02.

     (c) To the extent permitted by applicable law, while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Company irrevocably appoints Loan Trustee the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of Company (which appointment is coupled with an interest) in its name and stead and on its behalf, for the purpose of effectuating any sale, assignment, transfer or delivery for the enforcement of the Lien of this Indenture, whether pursuant to foreclosure or power of sale, or otherwise, to execute and deliver all such bills of sale, assignments and other instruments as may be necessary or appropriate, with full power of substitution, Company hereby ratifying and confirming all that such attorney or any substitute does by virtue hereof in accordance with applicable law; provided that if so requested by Loan Trustee or any purchaser, Company shall ratify and confirm any such sale, assignment or transfer of delivery, by executing and delivering to Loan Trustee or such purchaser all bills of sale, assignments, releases and other proper instruments to effect such ratification and confirmation as may reasonably be designated in any such request.

     (d) At any time after Loan Trustee has declared the unpaid principal amount of all Equipment Notes then outstanding to be due and payable, or all Equipment Notes shall have become due and payable as provided in the proviso to Section 4.02(a)(i), and, in either case, prior to the sale of any part of the Collateral pursuant to this Article IV, a Majority in Interest of Noteholders, by written notice to Company and Loan Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration, whether made by Loan Trustee on its own accord or as directed or deemed declaration, and its consequences if: (i) there has been paid to or deposited with Loan Trustee an amount sufficient to pay all overdue installments of principal amount of, and interest on, the Equipment Notes, and all other amounts owing under the Operative Documents, that have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and (ii) all other Events of Default, other than nonpayment of principal amount or interest on the Equipment Notes that have become due solely because of such acceleration, have been either cured or waived; provided that no such rescission or annulment shall extend to or affect any subsequent default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

     (e) Notwithstanding anything contained herein, (i) so long as Pass Through Trustee under any Pass Through Trust Agreement or Subordination Agent on its behalf is a Noteholder, Loan Trustee will not be authorized or empowered to acquire title to any Collateral or take any action with respect to any Collateral so acquired by it if such acquisition or action would cause any Pass Through Trust to fail to qualify as a “grantor

     Section 4.03 Remedies Cumulative. To the extent permitted under applicable law, each and every right, power and remedy specifically given to Loan Trustee herein or otherwise in this Indenture shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other right, power and remedy specifically given herein or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute, and each and every right, power and remedy whether specifically given herein or otherwise existing may be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by Loan Trustee, and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of any 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 Loan Trustee in the exercise of any right, remedy or power or in the pursuance of any remedy shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any default on the part of Company or to be an acquiescence therein.

     Section 4.04 Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case Loan Trustee has instituted any proceedings to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Indenture by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or have been determined adversely to Loan Trustee, then and in every such case Company and Loan Trustee shall, subject to any determination in such proceedings, be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral, and all rights, remedies and powers of Loan Trustee shall continue as if no such proceedings had been undertaken (but otherwise without prejudice).

     Section 4.05 Waiver of Past Defaults. Upon written instruction from a Majority in Interest of Noteholders, Loan Trustee shall waive any past default hereunder and its consequences, and upon any such waiver such default shall cease to exist and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture and the other Operative Documents, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon; provided that in the absence of written instructions from each of the affected Noteholders, Loan Trustee shall not waive any default (i) in the payment of the principal amount, Make-Whole Amount, if any, or interest due under any Equipment Note then outstanding (other than with the consent of the holder thereof), or (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which, under Article IX, cannot be modified or amended without the consent of each such affected Noteholder.

     Section 4.06 Noteholders May Not Bring Suit Except Under Certain Conditions. A Noteholder of any Series shall not have the right to institute any suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity or otherwise with respect to this Indenture for the appointment of a receiver or for the enforcement of any other remedy under this Indenture, unless:

41

     (1) such Noteholder previously shall have given written notice to Loan Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;

     (2) a Majority in Interest of Noteholders shall have requested Loan Trustee in writing to institute such action, suit or proceeding and shall have offered to Loan Trustee indemnity as provided in Section 5.03;

     (3) Loan Trustee shall have refused or neglected to institute any such action, suit or proceeding for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity; and

     (4) no direction inconsistent with such written request shall have been given to Loan Trustee during such 60-day period by a Majority in Interest of Noteholders.

     Except to the extent provided in the Intercreditor Agreement or in any Indenture Supplement, it is understood and intended that no one or more of Noteholders of any Series shall have any right in any manner whatsoever hereunder or under the Indenture Supplement or under the Equipment Notes of such Series to (i) surrender, impair, waive, affect, disturb or prejudice any Collateral, or the Lien of the Indenture on any Collateral, or the rights of Noteholders of such Series, (ii) obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference with respect to any other such Noteholder of such Series or (iii) enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner provided in this Indenture and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Noteholders of such Series subject to the provisions of this Indenture.

     Section 4.07 Appointment of a Receiver. To the extent permitted by applicable law, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and the Equipment Notes either shall have been accelerated pursuant to Section 4.02 or have become due at maturity, Loan Trustee shall, as a matter of right, be entitled to the appointment of a receiver (who may be Loan Trustee or any successor or nominee thereof) for all or any part of the Collateral, whether such receivership be incidental to a proposed sale of the Collateral or the taking of possession thereof or otherwise, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Company hereby consents to the appointment of such a receiver and will not oppose any such appointment. Any receiver appointed for all or any part of the Collateral shall be entitled to exercise all the rights and powers of Loan Trustee with respect to the Collateral.

Duties of Loan Trustee

     Section 5.01 Notice of Event of Default. If Loan Trustee has knowledge of an Event of Default or of a default arising from a failure by Company to pay when due any payment of principal amount, interest on, or Make-Whole Amount, if any, due and payable under any Equipment Note, Loan Trustee shall promptly give notice thereof to Company, each Liquidity Provider and each Noteholder. Subject to the terms of Sections 4.02, 4.05, 5.02 and 5.03, Loan Trustee shall take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such default or Event of Default (including with respect to the exercise of any rights or remedies hereunder) as Loan Trustee is instructed in writing by a Majority in Interest of Noteholders. Subject to the provisions of Section 5.03, if Loan Trustee does not receive instructions as above provided within 20 Business Days after giving notice of such default or Event of Default to Noteholders, Loan Trustee may, subject to instructions thereafter received pursuant to the preceding provisions of this Section 5.01, take such action, or refrain from taking such action with respect to such default or Event of Default as it reasonably determines to be advisable in the best interests of Noteholders, but shall be under no duty to take or refrain from taking any action. It shall use the same degree of care and skill in connection therewith as a prudent person would use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs. Loan Trustee may not sell the Airframe or any Engine without the consent of a Majority in Interest of Noteholders.

     For all purposes of this Indenture, in the absence of actual knowledge, Loan Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of a default or an Event of Default unless notified in writing by Company or one or more Noteholders; and “actual knowledge” (as used in the foregoing clause) of Loan Trustee shall mean actual knowledge of an officer in the Corporate Trust Office of Loan Trustee; provided that Loan Trustee is deemed to have actual knowledge of (i) the failure of Company to pay any principal amount of, or interest on, the Equipment Notes directly to Loan Trustee when the same shall become due or (ii) the failure of Company to maintain insurance as required under Section 7.06 if Loan Trustee receives written notice thereof from an insurer or insurance broker.

     Section 5.02 Action upon Instructions; Certain Rights and Limitations. Subject to the terms of Article IV and this Article V, upon the written instructions at any time of a Majority in Interest of Noteholders, Loan Trustee shall promptly (i) give such notice, direction, consent, waiver or approval or exercise such right, remedy or power hereunder in respect of all or any part of the Collateral or (ii) take such other action permitted hereunder, in each case, as is specified in such instructions.

     Section 5.03 Indemnification. Loan Trustee shall not be required to take any action or refrain from taking any action under Section 5.01 (other than the first sentence thereof) or 5.02 or Article IV unless it 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 actually incurred by it in connection therewith. Loan Trustee shall not be required to take any action under Section 5.01 (other than the first sentence thereof) or 5.02 or Article IV, nor shall any other provision of any Operative Document be deemed to impose a duty on Loan Trustee to take any action, if Loan Trustee shall have been advised by outside counsel that such action is contrary to the terms hereof or is otherwise contrary to law.

     Section 5.04 No Duties Except as Specified in Indenture or Instructions. Loan Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to manage, control, lease, use, sell, operate, store, dispose of or otherwise deal with the Aircraft or any other part of the Collateral, or to otherwise take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, this Indenture, except as expressly provided by the terms of this Indenture or the Participation Agreement or as expressly provided in written instructions received pursuant to the terms of Section 5.01 or 5.02; and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against Loan Trustee.

     Section 5.06 Investment of Amounts Held by Loan Trustee. Any monies (including for the purpose of this Section 5.06 any amounts held by Loan Trustee pursuant to Section 3.02, 3.03 or 3.07 or pursuant to any provision of any other Operative Document providing for amounts to be held by Loan Trustee which are not distributed pursuant to the other provisions of Article III, or any cash received by Loan Trustee pursuant to Section 7.05(c) or 7.06(d) or otherwise, or Permitted Investments purchased by the use of such cash pursuant to this Section 5.06 or any cash constituting the proceeds of the maturity, sale or other disposition of any Permitted Investments) held by Loan Trustee hereunder as part of the Collateral, until paid out by Loan Trustee as herein provided, (i) subject to clause (ii) below and Section 3.07, may be carried by Loan Trustee on deposit with itself or on deposit to its account with any bank, trust company or national banking association incorporated or doing business under the laws of the United States or one of the states thereof having combined capital and surplus and retained earnings of a least $100,000,000, and Loan Trustee shall not have any liability for interest

All Permitted Investments held by Loan Trustee pursuant to this Section 5.06 shall be held pursuant to Section 3.07. If an Event of Default or Payment Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any net income, profit, interest, dividend or gain realized upon maturity, sale or other disposition of any Permitted Investment shall be held as part of the Collateral and shall be applied by Loan Trustee at the same time, on the same conditions and in the same manner as the amounts in respect of which such income, profit, interest, dividend or gain was realized are required to be distributed in accordance with the provisions hereof pursuant to which such amounts were required to be held. Subject to Section 3.03, at such time as there shall not be continuing any such Event of Default or Payment Default, such income, profit, interest, dividend or gain shall be paid to Company. In addition, subject to Section 3.03, if any moneys or investments are held by Loan Trustee solely because an Event of Default or Payment Default has occurred and is continuing, at such time as there shall not be continuing any such Event of Default or Payment Default, such moneys and investments shall be paid to Company. Loan Trustee shall not be responsible for any losses on any investments or sales of Permitted Investments made pursuant to the procedure specified in this Section 5.06 other than by reason of its willful misconduct or negligence.

[Reg. No.]

51

acquire or claim, as against Company (or any Permitted Lessee) or such lessor or secured party, any right, title or interest in: (A) any engine or engines owned by Company (or any Permitted Lessee) or by the lessor under such lease or subject to a security interest in favor of the secured party under such conditional sale or other security agreement as the result of such engine or engines being installed on the Airframe, or (B) any airframe owned by Company (or any Permitted Lessee) or by the lessor under such lease or subject to a security interest in favor of the secured party under such conditional sale or other security agreement as the result of any Engine being installed on such airframe.

     Loan Trustee acknowledges that any “wet lease” or other similar arrangement under which Company (or any Permitted Lessee) maintains operational control of the Aircraft does not constitute a delivery, transfer or relinquishment of possession for purposes of this Section 7.02(a).

     (b) Operation and Use. Company agrees that the Aircraft will not be maintained, used or operated in violation of any law, rule or regulation of any government of any country having jurisdiction over the Aircraft or in violation of any airworthiness certificate, license or registration relating to the Aircraft issued by any such government, except to the extent Company (or, if a Lease is then in effect, any Permitted Lessee) is contesting in good faith the validity or application of any such law, rule or regulation in any manner that does not involve any material risk of sale, forfeiture or loss of the Aircraft or impair the Lien of this Indenture; provided that Company shall not be in default under, or required to take any action set forth in, this sentence if it is not possible for it to comply with the laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States (or other than any jurisdiction in which the Aircraft is then registered) because of a conflict with the applicable laws of the United States (or such jurisdiction in which the Aircraft is then registered). Company will not operate the Aircraft, or permit the Aircraft to be operated or located, (i) in any area excluded from coverage by any insurance required by the terms of Section 7.06 or (ii) in any war zone or recognized or, in Company’s judgment, threatened areas of hostilities unless covered by war risk insurance in accordance with Section 7.06, unless in the case of either clause (i) or (ii), (x) government indemnification complying with Sections 7.06(a) and (b) has been provided or (y) the Aircraft is only temporarily located in such area as a result of an isolated occurrence or isolated series of occurrences attributable to a hijacking, medical emergency, equipment malfunction, weather conditions, navigational error or other similar circumstances and Company is using its good faith efforts to remove the Aircraft from such area as promptly as practicable.

     (c) Maintenance. Company shall maintain, service, repair and overhaul the Aircraft (or cause the same to be done) (i) so as to keep the Aircraft in good operating condition and in such condition as may be necessary to enable the airworthiness certification of the Aircraft to be maintained in good standing at all times (other than during temporary periods of storage, during maintenance, testing or modification

permitted hereunder, or during periods of grounding by applicable governmental authorities) under the Transportation Code, during such periods in which the Aircraft is registered under the laws of the United States, or, if the Aircraft is registered under the laws of any other jurisdiction, the applicable laws of such jurisdiction and (ii) using the same standards as Company (or a Permitted Lessee, if a Lease is in effect) uses with respect to similar aircraft operated by Company (or such Permitted Lessee) in similar circumstances (it being understood that the obligations pursuant to this clause (ii) do not limit Company’s obligations under the preceding clause (i)). In any case, the Aircraft will be maintained in accordance with the maintenance standards required by the FAA (while operated under an FAA-approved maintenance program) or, while operated under the maintenance program of another jurisdiction, standards substantially equivalent to those required by the central aviation authority of Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland or the United Kingdom. Company shall maintain or cause to be maintained all records, logs and other documents required to be maintained in respect of the Aircraft by appropriate authorities in the jurisdiction in which the Aircraft is registered.

     (d) Identification of Loan Trustee’s Interest. Company agrees to affix as promptly as practicable after the Closing Date and thereafter to maintain in the cockpit of the Aircraft, in a clearly visible location, and (if not prevented by applicable law or regulations or by any government) on each Engine, a nameplate bearing the inscription “MORTGAGED TO U.S. BANK TRUST NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, AS LOAN TRUSTEE” (such nameplate to be replaced, if necessary, with a nameplate reflecting the name of any successor Loan Trustee).

     (e) Registration. Company shall cause the Aircraft to remain duly registered, under the laws of the United States, in the name of Company except as otherwise required by the Transportation Code; provided that Loan Trustee shall, at Company’s expense, execute and deliver all such documents as Company may reasonably request for the purpose of continuing such registration. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Company, at its own expense, may cause or allow the Aircraft to be duly registered under the laws of any foreign jurisdiction in which a Permitted Lessee could be principally based, in the name of Company or of any nominee of Company, or, if required by applicable law, in the name of any other Person (and, following any such foreign registration, may cause the Aircraft to be re-registered under the laws of the United States); provided that in the case of jurisdictions other than those approved by Loan Trustee with the consent of a Majority in Interest of Noteholders (i) if such jurisdiction is at the time of registration listed on Exhibit B, Loan Trustee shall have received at the time of such registration an opinion of counsel to Company to the effect that (A) this Indenture and Loan Trustee’s right to repossession thereunder is valid and enforceable under the laws of such country, (B) after giving effect to such change in registration, the Lien of this Indenture shall continue as a valid Lien and shall be duly perfected in the

new jurisdiction of registration and that all filing, recording or other action necessary to perfect and protect the Lien of this Indenture has been accomplished (or if such opinion cannot be given at such time, (x) the opinion shall detail what filing, recording or other action is necessary and (y) Loan Trustee shall have received a certificate from a Responsible Officer of Company that all possible preparations to accomplish such filing, recording and other action shall have been done, and such filing, recording and other action shall be accomplished and a supplemental opinion to that effect shall be promptly delivered to Loan Trustee subsequent to the effective date of such change in registration), (C) the obligations of Company under this Indenture shall remain valid, binding and (subject to customary bankruptcy and equitable remedies exceptions and to other exceptions customary in foreign opinions generally) enforceable under the laws of such jurisdiction (or the laws of the jurisdiction to which the laws of such jurisdiction would refer as the applicable governing law), (D) all approvals or consents of any government in such jurisdiction having jurisdiction required for such change in registration shall have been duly obtained and shall be in full force and effect and (E) (unless Company shall have agreed to provide insurance covering the risk of requisition of use or title of the Aircraft by the government of such jurisdiction so long as the Aircraft is registered under the laws of such jurisdiction) the laws of such jurisdiction require fair compensation by the government of such jurisdiction payable in currency freely convertible into Dollars for the loss of use or title of the Aircraft in the event of requisition by such government of such use or title, and (ii) if such jurisdiction is at the time of registration not listed on Exhibit B, Loan Trustee shall have received (in addition to the opinions set forth in clause (i) above) at the time of such registration an opinion of counsel to Company to the effect that (A) the terms of this Indenture are legal, valid, binding and enforceable in such jurisdiction (subject to exceptions customary in such jurisdiction; provided that, subject to exceptions relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and exceptions relating to general principles of equity, such counsel shall opine that any applicable laws limiting the remedies provided in Section 4.02 do not in the opinion of such counsel make the remedies provided in Section 4.02 inadequate for the practical realization of the rights and benefits provided thereby), (B) it is not necessary for Loan Trustee to register or qualify to do business in such jurisdiction and (C) there is no tort liability of the lender of an aircraft not in possession thereof under the laws of such jurisdiction other than tort liability that might have been imposed on such lender under the laws of the United States or any state thereof (it being understood that such opinion shall be waived if insurance reasonably satisfactory to Loan Trustee is provided, at Company’s expense, to cover such risk). Loan Trustee will cooperate with Company in effecting such foreign registration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to any such change in the country of registry of the Aircraft, the following conditions shall be met (or waived as provided in Section 6.01(b) of the Participation Agreement):

     (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the effective date of the change in registration; provided that it shall not be necessary

Indenture and Security Agreement (2010-1 EETC)
[Reg. No.]

54

to comply with this condition if the change in registration results in the registration of the Aircraft under the laws of the United States or if a Majority in Interest of Noteholders consents to such change in registration;

     (ii) Loan Trustee shall have received evidence of compliance with the insurance provisions contained herein after giving effect to such change in registration;

     (iii) other than in the case of a change in registration to Taiwan, the proposed change in registration is made to a country with which the United States then maintains normal diplomatic relations, and in the case of a change in registration to Taiwan, the United States maintains diplomatic relations with Taiwan at least as good as those on the Closing Date; and

     (iv) Company shall have paid or made provision reasonably satisfactory to Loan Trustee for the payment of all reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) of Loan Trustee and Noteholders in connection with such change in registration.

     Company shall (i) at Loan Trustee’s request from time to time, take such actions as may be required to be taken by Company so that any International Interest arising in relation to this Indenture, the Aircraft, any Replacement Aircraft, any Engine or Replacement Engine may be duly registered (and any such registration may be assigned, amended, extended or discharged) at the International Registry, and (ii) obtain from the International Registry all approvals as may be required duly and timely to perform Company’s obligations under this Indenture with respect to the registration of any such International Interest. Loan Trustee shall take all actions necessary with respect to the International Registry to consent to Company’s initiation of any registrations required under this Indenture to enable Company to complete such registrations, including, without limitation, appointing Daugherty, Fowler, Peregrin, Haught & Jenson, a Professional Corporation, as its “professional user entity” (as defined in the Cape Town Treaty) to consent to any registrations on the International Registry with respect to the Airframe or any Engine.

     Section 7.03 Inspection; Financial Information.

     (a) Inspection. At all reasonable times, but upon at least 15 Business Days’ prior written notice to Company, Loan Trustee or its authorized representatives may, subject to the other conditions of this Section 7.03(a), inspect the Aircraft and may inspect the books and records of Company relating to the maintenance of the Aircraft required to be maintained by the FAA or the government of another jurisdiction in which the Aircraft is then registered; provided that (i) Loan Trustee or its representatives, as the case may be, shall be fully insured at no cost to Company or any Permitted Lessee in a manner satisfactory to Company with respect to any risks incurred in connection with any

[Reg. No.]

55

such inspection or shall provide to Company a written release satisfactory to Company and any Permitted Lessee with respect to such risks, (ii) any such inspection shall be during Company’s or Permitted Lessee’s, as the case may be, normal business hours and subject to the safety, security and workplace rules applicable at the location where such inspection is conducted and any applicable governmental rules or regulations, (iii) any such inspection of the Aircraft shall be a visual, walk-around inspection of the interior and exterior of the Aircraft and shall not include opening any panels, bays or the like without Company’s express consent, which consent Company may in its sole discretion withhold, and (iv) no exercise of such inspection right shall interfere with the use, operation or maintenance of the Aircraft by, or the business of, Company or any Permitted Lessee and Company and any Permitted Lessee shall not be required to undertake or incur any additional liabilities in connection therewith. All information obtained in connection with any such inspection of the Aircraft and of such books and records shall be Confidential Information and shall be treated by Loan Trustee and its representatives in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.16. Any inspection pursuant to this Section 7.03(a) shall be at the sole risk (including, without limitation, any risk of personal injury or death) and expense of Loan Trustee (or its representatives) making such inspection. Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, all inspections by Loan Trustee and its representatives provided for under this Section 7.03(a) shall be limited to one inspection of any kind contemplated by this Section 7.03(a) during any consecutive twelve month period.

     (b) Financial Information. So long as any of the Secured Obligations remain unpaid, Company agrees to furnish to Loan Trustee: (i) within 60 days after the end of each of the first three quarterly periods in each fiscal year of Company, either (x) a consolidated balance sheet of Company and its consolidated subsidiaries prepared by it as of the close of such period, together with the related consolidated statements of income for such period or (y) a report of Company on Form 10-Q in respect of such period in the form filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and (ii) within 120 days after the close of each fiscal year of Company, either (x) a consolidated balance sheet of Company and its consolidated subsidiaries as of the close of such fiscal year, together with the related consolidated statements of income for such fiscal year, certified by independent public accountants, or (y) a report of Company on Form 10-K in respect of such year in the form filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

     Section 7.04 Replacement and Pooling of Parts; Alterations, Modifications and Additions; Substitution of Engines.

     (a) Replacement of Parts. Company shall promptly replace or cause to be replaced all Parts incorporated or installed in or attached to the Airframe or any Engine and that become worn out, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged beyond repair or rendered permanently unfit for use for any reason, except as otherwise provided in Section 7.04(c) or if the Airframe or an Engine to which a Part relates has suffered an Event of Loss. In addition, Company (or any Permitted Lessee) may remove in the ordinary course of maintenance, service, repair, overhaul or testing, any Parts, whether or not worn out, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged beyond repair or rendered permanently unfit for use; provided that Company (or any Permitted Lessee), except as otherwise provided in Section 7.04(c), will replace such Parts as promptly as practicable. All replacement Parts shall be free and clear of all Liens (except for Permitted Liens and except in the case of replacement property temporarily installed on an emergency basis) and shall be in the condition and repair required to be maintained by the terms hereof. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.04(c), any Part removed from the Airframe or any Engine shall remain subject to the Lien of this Indenture no matter where located until it is replaced by a part incorporated or installed in or attached to the Airframe or such Engine that meets the requirements for replacement Parts specified above. Immediately upon any replacement Part becoming incorporated or installed in or attached to the Airframe or any Engine as above provided (except in the case of replacement property temporarily installed on an emergency basis), without further act, (i) the replaced Part shall thereupon be free and clear of all rights of Loan Trustee and of the Lien of this Indenture and shall no longer be deemed a Part hereunder, and (ii) such replacement Part shall become subject to the Lien of this Indenture and be deemed a Part of the Airframe or such Engine for all purposes to the same extent as the Parts originally incorporated or installed in or attached to the Airframe or such Engine. Upon request of Company from time to time, Loan Trustee shall execute and deliver to Company an appropriate instrument confirming the release of any such replaced Part from the Lien of this Indenture.

     (b) Pooling of Parts. Any Part removed from the Airframe or any Engine as provided in Section 7.04(a) may be subjected by Company or a Person permitted to be in possession of the Aircraft to a pooling arrangement entered into in the ordinary course of Company’s or such Person’s business; provided that the part replacing such removed Part shall be incorporated or installed in or attached to the Airframe or such Engine in accordance with Section 7.04(a) as promptly as practicable after the removal of such removed Part. In addition, any replacement Part when incorporated or installed in or attached to the Airframe or any Engine may be owned by any third party subject to such a pooling arrangement; provided that Company, at its expense, as promptly thereafter as practicable either (i) causes title to such replacement Part to vest in Company free and clear of all Liens (except Permitted Liens), or (ii) replaces such replacement Part by

Indenture and Security Agreement (2010-1 EETC)
[Reg. No.]

57

incorporating or installing in or attaching to the Airframe or such Engine a further replacement Part in the manner contemplated by Section 7.04(a).

     (c) Alterations, Modifications and Additions. Company will make (or cause to be made) such alterations and modifications in and additions to the Airframe and the Engines as are required from time to time to meet the applicable requirements of the FAA or any applicable government of any other jurisdiction in which the Aircraft is then registered; provided that Company (or, if a Lease is then in effect, any Permitted Lessee) may, in good faith, contest the validity or application of any such requirement in any manner that does not involve any material risk of sale, loss or forfeiture of the Aircraft and does not materially adversely affect Loan Trustee’s interest in the Aircraft. In addition, Company (or any Permitted Lessee), at its own expense, may from time to time add further parts or accessories and make or cause to be made such alterations and modifications in and additions to the Airframe or any Engine as Company (or any Permitted Lessee) deems desirable in the proper conduct of its business, including, without limitation, removal (without replacement) of Parts; provided that no such alteration, modification or addition shall materially diminish the value or utility of the Airframe or such Engine below its value or utility immediately prior to such alteration, modification or addition, assuming that the Airframe or such Engine was then in the condition required to be maintained by the terms of this Indenture, except that the value (but not the utility) of the Airframe or any Engine may be reduced by the value of any such Parts that are removed that Company deems obsolete or no longer suitable or appropriate for use on the Airframe or any Engine. All Parts incorporated or installed in or attached or added to the Airframe or any Engine as the result of such alteration, modification or addition shall, without further act, be subject to the Lien of this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company (or any Permitted Lessee) may, at any time, remove any Part from the Airframe or any Engine if such Part: (i) is in addition to, and not in replacement of or substitution for, any Part originally incorporated or installed in or attached to the Airframe or such Engine at the time of delivery thereof to Company or any Part in replacement of, or substitution for, any such Part, (ii) is not required to be incorporated or installed in or attached or added to the Airframe or such Engine pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 7.04(c) and (iii) can be removed from the Airframe or such Engine without materially diminishing the value or utility required to be maintained by the terms of this Indenture that the Airframe or such Engine would have had had such Part never been installed on the Airframe or such Engine. Upon the removal by Company (or any Permitted Lessee) of any Part as permitted by this Section 7.04(c), such removed Part shall, without further act, be free and clear of all rights and interests of Loan Trustee and the Lien of this Indenture and shall no longer be deemed a Part hereunder. Upon request of Company from time to time, Loan Trustee shall execute and deliver to Company an appropriate instrument confirming the release of any such removed Part from the Lien of this Indenture. Loan Trustee acknowledges that it has no interest in the Excluded Equipment. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7.04(c) or any other term or condition of this Indenture, Company (or any Permitted

Indenture and Security Agreement (2010-1 EETC)
[Reg. No.]

58

Lessee) may from time to time install on, and remove from, the Aircraft equipment that is owned by, leased to or conditionally sold to Company (or any Permitted Lessee) (and title to such equipment shall remain vested in Company, such Permitted Lessee, or the lessor or the conditional vendor thereof) if (1) such equipment is Excluded Equipment and (2) the location affected by any such removal, if damaged, is repaired prior to return, in a workmanlike manner, to a condition suitable for commercial passenger service; provided that all costs of installation, removal and replacement shall be the responsibility of Company.

     (d) Substitution of Engines. Company shall have the right at its option at any time, on at least 30 days’ prior written notice to Loan Trustee, to substitute a Replacement Engine for any Engine. In such event, and prior to the date of such substitution, Company shall replace such Engine by complying with the terms of Section 7.05(b) to the same extent as if an Event of Loss had occurred with respect to such Engine.

     Section 7.05 Loss, Destruction or Requisition.

     (a) Event of Loss with Respect to the Airframe. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Loss with respect to the Airframe or the Airframe and the Engines then installed thereon, Company shall as soon as practicable (and, in any event, within 30 days after an Event of Loss has occurred) notify Loan Trustee of such Event of Loss, and, within 90 days after such Event of Loss, Company shall give Loan Trustee written notice of its election to perform one of the following options (it being agreed that if Company has not given such notice of election within such 90-day period, Company shall be deemed to have elected to perform the option set forth in the following clause (ii)). Company may elect either to:

     (i) substitute, on or before the Loss Payment Date (as defined below), as replacement for the Airframe or Airframe and Engines with respect to which an Event of Loss has occurred, a Replacement Airframe (together with a number of Replacement Engines equal to the number of Engines, if any, with respect to which the Event of Loss occurred), such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines to be owned by Company free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens); provided that if Company has not performed such obligation on or prior to the Loss Payment Date, then Company shall on the Loss Payment Date redeem the Equipment Notes in full in accordance with Section 2.10; or

     (ii) redeem, on or before the Loss Payment Date, the Equipment Notes in full in accordance with Section 2.10. Company shall give Loan Trustee 20 days prior written notice if it elects to redeem the Equipment Notes on any day prior to the Loss Payment Date.

Indenture and Security Agreement (2010-1 EETC)
[Reg. No.]

59

     The “Loss Payment Date” with respect to an Event of Loss means the Business Day next succeeding the 120th day following the date of occurrence of such Event of Loss.

     If Company elects to substitute a Replacement Airframe (or a Replacement Airframe and one or more Replacement Engines, as the case may be) Company shall, at its sole expense, not later than the Loss Payment Date, (A) cause an Indenture Supplement for such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, to be delivered to Loan Trustee for execution and, upon such execution, to be filed for recordation pursuant to the Transportation Code or the applicable laws of such other jurisdiction in which the Aircraft is then registered, (B) cause the sale of such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, to Company (if occurring after February 28, 2006 and if the seller of such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, is “situated in” a country that has ratified the Cape Town Convention) and the International Interest created pursuant to the Indenture Supplement in favor of Loan Trustee with respect to such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, each to be registered on the International Registry as a sale or an International Interest, respectively; provided that if the seller of such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, is not situated in a country that has ratified the Cape Town Convention, Company will use its best efforts to cause the seller to register the contract of sale on the International Registry, (C) cause a financing statement or statements with respect to the Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, or other requisite documents or instruments to be filed in such place or places as necessary in order to perfect Loan Trustee’s interest therein in the United States, or in any other jurisdiction in which the Aircraft is then registered, (D) furnish Loan Trustee with an opinion of Company’s counsel (which may be internal counsel of Company) addressed to Loan Trustee to the effect that upon such replacement, such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, will be subject to the Lien of this Indenture and addressing the matters set forth in clauses (A), (B) and (C), (E) furnish Loan Trustee with a certificate of an independent aircraft engineer or appraiser, certifying that the Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, have a value and utility (without regard to hours or cycles) at least equal to the Airframe and Engines, if any, so replaced, assuming the Airframe and such Engines were in the condition and repair required by the terms hereof immediately prior to the occurrence of such Event of Loss, (F) furnish Loan Trustee with evidence of compliance with the insurance provisions of Section 7.06 with respect to such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, (G) furnish Loan Trustee with a copy of the original bill of sale respecting such Replacement Airframe and a copy of the original bill of sale or, if the bill of sale is unavailable, other evidence of ownership reasonably satisfactory to Loan Trustee (which may be a copy of an invoice or purchase order) respecting such Replacement Engines, if any, and (H) furnish Loan Trustee with an opinion of Company’s counsel (which may be internal counsel of Company) reasonably satisfactory to Loan Trustee to the effect that Loan Trustee will be entitled to the benefits of Section 1110 with respect to the

Indenture and Security Agreement (2010-1 EETC)
[Reg. No.]

60

Replacement Airframe; provided that (i) such opinion need not be delivered to the extent that the benefits of Section 1110 were not, by reason of a change in law or governmental or judicial interpretation thereof, available to Loan Trustee with respect to the Aircraft immediately prior to such substitution and (ii) such opinion may contain qualifications and assumptions of the tenor contained in the Section 1110 opinion of Company’s counsel delivered pursuant to Section 3.01 of the Participation Agreement on the Closing Date and such other qualifications and assumptions as are at the time customary in opinions rendered in comparable circumstances.

     In the case of each Replacement Airframe or Replacement Airframe and one or more Replacement Engines subjected to the Lien of this Indenture under this Section 7.05(a), promptly upon the recordation of the Indenture Supplement covering any such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, pursuant to the Transportation Code (or pursuant to the applicable law of such other jurisdiction in which such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, are registered), Company will cause to be delivered to Loan Trustee a favorable opinion of FAA counsel selected by Company if at the time of the Event of Loss the Aircraft was registered under the laws of the United States (or, if at the time of the Event of Loss the Aircraft was registered under the laws of another jurisdiction, counsel qualified to opine on matters of registration in such jurisdiction selected by Company, which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to Loan Trustee) addressed to Loan Trustee as to the due registration of such Replacement Aircraft and the due recordation of such Indenture Supplement or such other requisite documents or instruments and the validity and perfection of the security interest in the Replacement Aircraft granted to Loan Trustee under this Indenture.

     For all purposes hereof, upon the attachment of the Lien of this Indenture thereto, the Replacement Aircraft and Replacement Engines, if any, shall become part of the Collateral, the Replacement Airframe shall be deemed an “Airframe” as defined herein, and each such Replacement Engine shall be deemed an “Engine” as defined herein. Upon compliance with clauses (A) through (H) of the third paragraph of this Section 7.05(a), Loan Trustee shall execute and deliver to Company an appropriate instrument releasing such replaced Airframe and Engines (if any) installed thereon at the time such Event of Loss occurred, all proceeds (including, without limitation, insurance proceeds), the Warranty Rights in respect of such replaced Airframe and Engines (if any) and all rights relating to the foregoing, from the Lien of this Indenture and assigning to Company all claims against third Persons for damage to or loss of the Airframe and Engines arising from the Event of Loss, and will take such actions as may be required to be taken by Loan Trustee to cancel or release any International Interest of Loan Trustee registered with the International Registry in relation to the replaced Airframe and replaced Engines, if any.

     If, after an Event of Loss, Company performs the option set forth in clause (ii) of the first paragraph of this Section 7.05(a), Loan Trustee shall execute and deliver to

Indenture and Security Agreement (2010-1 EETC)
[Reg. No.]

Company an appropriate instrument releasing the Aircraft, all proceeds (including, without limitation, insurance proceeds), the Warranty Rights in respect of the Aircraft and all rights relating to the foregoing from the Lien of this Indenture and assigning to Company all claims against third Persons for damage to or loss of the Aircraft arising from the Event of Loss, and will take such actions as may be required to be taken by Loan Trustee to cancel or release any International Interest of Loan Trustee registered with the International Registry in relation to the Airframe and Engines, if any, with respect to which such Event of Loss occurred.

     (b) Event of Loss with Respect to an Engine. As soon as practicable following the occurrence of an Event of Loss with respect to an Engine under circumstances in which there has not occurred an Event of Loss with respect to the Airframe, Company shall give Loan Trustee prompt written notice thereof and shall, within 120 days after the occurrence of such Event of Loss, cause to be subjected to the Lien of this Indenture, as replacement for the Engine with respect to which such Event of Loss occurred, a Replacement Engine free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens).

     Prior to or at the time of any replacement under this Section 7.05(b), Company will (i) cause an Indenture Supplement covering such Replacement Engine to be delivered to Loan Trustee for execution and, upon such execution, to be filed for recordation pursuant to the Transportation Code or the applicable laws of any other jurisdiction in which the Aircraft is then registered, (ii) furnish Loan Trustee with a copy of the original bill of sale or, if the bill of sale is unavailable, other evidence of ownership reasonably satisfactory to Loan Trustee (which may be a copy of an invoice or purchase order) respecting such Replacement Engine, which in the case of any such conveyance to which the Cape Town Convention is applicable shall be in such form as will qualify as “contract of sale” pursuant to Article V of the Aircraft Protocol, and all documents required under the Operative Documents to establish, continue, confirm, register and/or perfect the interests of Loan Trustee in such Replacement Engine, (iii) cause the sale of such Replacement Engine to Company (if occurring after February 28, 2006 and if the seller of such Replacement Engine is “situated in” a country that has ratified the Cape Town Convention) and the International Interest created pursuant to the Indenture Supplement in favor of Loan Trustee with respect to such Replacement Engine, each to be registered on the International Registry as a sale or an International Interest, respectively; provided that if the seller of such Replacement Engine is not situated in a country that has ratified the Cape Town Convention, Company will use its best efforts to cause the seller to register the contract of sale on the International Registry, (iv) cause a financing statement or statements with respect to such Replacement Engine or other requisite documents or instruments to be filed in such place or places as necessary in order to perfect Loan Trustee’s interest therein in the United States, or in such other jurisdiction in which the Engine is then registered, (v) furnish Loan Trustee with an opinion of Company’s counsel (which may be internal counsel to Company) addressed to

Loan Trustee to the effect that, upon such replacement, the Replacement Engine will be subject to the Lien of this Indenture, (vi) furnish Loan Trustee with a certificate of an aircraft engineer or appraiser (who may be an employee of Company) certifying that such Replacement Engine has a value and utility (without regard to hours or cycles) at least equal to the Engine so replaced assuming such Engine was in the condition and repair required by the terms hereof immediately prior to the occurrence of such Event of Loss and (vii) furnish Loan Trustee with evidence of compliance with the insurance provisions of Section 7.06 with respect to such Replacement Engine. In the case of each Replacement Engine subjected to the Lien of this Indenture under this Section 7.05(b), promptly upon the recordation of the Indenture Supplement covering such Replacement Engine pursuant to the Transportation Code (or pursuant to the applicable law of such other jurisdiction in which the Aircraft is registered), Company will cause to be delivered to Loan Trustee an opinion of FAA counsel selected by Company if at the time of the Event of Loss the Aircraft was registered under the laws of the United States (or, if at the time of the Event of Loss the Aircraft was registered under the laws of another jurisdiction, counsel qualified to opine on matters of registration in such jurisdiction selected by Company, which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to Loan Trustee) addressed to Loan Trustee as to the due recordation of such Indenture Supplement or such other requisite documents or instruments, the registration with the International Registry of the sale of such Replacement Engine to Company (if occurring after February 28, 2006) and of the International Interest created pursuant to the Indenture Supplement with respect to such Replacement Engine and the validity and perfection of the security interest in the Replacement Engine granted to Loan Trustee under this Indenture. For all purposes hereof, upon the attachment of the Lien of this Indenture thereto, the Replacement Engine shall become part of the Collateral and shall be deemed an “Engine” as defined herein. Upon compliance with clauses (i) through (vii) of the first sentence of this paragraph, Loan Trustee shall execute and deliver to Company an appropriate instrument releasing such replaced Engine, any proceeds (including, without limitation, insurance proceeds), the Warranty Rights in respect of such replaced Engine and all rights relating to any of the foregoing from the Lien of this Indenture and assigning to Company all claims against third Persons for damage to or loss of such Engine arising from the Event of Loss, and will take such actions as may be required to be taken by Loan Trustee to cancel or release any International Interest of Loan Trustee registered with the International Registry in relation to the Engines with respect to which such Event of Loss occurred.

     (c) Application of Payments for Event of Loss from Requisition of Title or Use. Any payments other than insurance proceeds (the application of which is provided for in Section 7.06) received at any time by Company or by Loan Trustee from any government or other Person with respect to an Event of Loss to the Airframe or any Engine, will be applied as follows:

     (ii) if such payments are received with respect to the Airframe or the Airframe and any Engines installed on the Airframe that has not been and will not be replaced pursuant to Section 7.05(a), so much of such payments remaining after reimbursement of Loan Trustee for costs and expenses that shall not exceed the amounts required to be paid to Noteholders pursuant to Section 2.10 shall be applied in reduction of Company’s obligation to pay such amounts, if not already paid by Company, or, if already paid by Company, shall be applied to reimburse Company for its payment of such amount and the balance, if any, of such payment remaining thereafter will be paid over to, or retained by, Company; and

     (iii) if such payments are received with respect to an Engine with regard to which an Event of Loss has occurred, so much of such payments remaining after reimbursement of Loan Trustee for costs and expenses shall be paid over to, or retained by, Company; provided that Company has fully performed its obligations under Section 7.05(b) with respect to the Event of Loss for which such payments are made.

     (d) Requisition for Use by the Government of the Airframe and the Engines Installed Thereon. In the event of the requisition for use or hire by any government (it being acknowledged that the use of the Airframe or any Engine pursuant to the CRAF Program does not constitute such a requisition or hire) of the Airframe and the Engines or engines installed on the Airframe that does not constitute an Event of Loss, all of Company’s rights and obligations under this Indenture with respect to the Airframe and such Engines shall continue to the same extent as if such requisition or hire had not occurred; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Company’s obligations other than payment obligations shall only continue to the extent feasible. All payments received by Company or Loan Trustee from such government for such requisition of the Airframe and Engines or engines shall be paid over to, or retained by, Company.

     (e) Requisition for Use by the Government of an Engine not Installed on the Airframe. If any government requisitions the use or hire (it being acknowledged that the use of the Airframe or any Engine pursuant to the CRAF Program does not constitute such a requisition), for a period in excess of sixty (60) days, of any Engine not then installed on the Airframe, Company will replace such Engine by complying with the terms of Section 7.05(b) to the same extent as if an Event of Loss had occurred with respect to such Engine. Upon such replacement, any payments received by Company or Loan Trustee from such government with respect to such requisition shall be paid over to, or retained by, Company.

     (f) Application of Payments During Existence of Event of Default. Any amount referred to in Section 7.05 that is payable to or retainable by Company shall not be paid to or retained by Company if at the time of such payment or retention an Event of Default or Payment Default has occurred and is continuing, but shall be held by or paid over to Loan Trustee as security for the obligations of Company under this Indenture and the Participation Agreement. When any such Event of Default or Payment Default ceases, such amount shall be paid to Company.

any other insurance carried by any Additional Insured with respect to its Interests as such in the Aircraft and (7) expressly provide that all of the provisions thereof, except the limits of liability, shall operate in the same manner as if there were a separate policy covering each insured. To the extent that Company’s war risk and allied perils insurance provider does not provide for provision of direct notice to Additional Insureds of cancellation or change in the insurance required hereunder, Company hereby agrees that upon receipt of notice of any thereof from such insurance provider it shall give the Additional Insureds immediate notice of each cancellation or change to such insurance.

To the extent that Company’s war risk and allied perils insurance provider does not provide for provision of direct notice to Additional Insureds of cancellation or change in the insurance required hereunder, Company hereby agrees that upon receipt of notice of any thereof from such insurance provider it shall give the Additional Insureds immediate notice of each cancellation or change to such insurance.

     (ii) During any period that the Airframe or an Engine, as the case may be, is on the ground and not being flown, Company may carry or cause to be carried as to such non-flown Airframe or Engine, in lieu of the insurance required by clause (i) above, and subject to self-insurance to the extent permitted by

Indenture and Security Agreement (2010-1 EETC)
[Reg. No.]

69

Section 7.06(d) below, insurance otherwise conforming with the provisions of said clause (i) except that the scope of the risks covered and the type of insurance shall be the same as from time to time are applicable to airframes and engines operated by Company (or, if a Lease is then in effect, by the Permitted Lessee) of the same type as such non-flown Airframe or Engine and that are on the ground and not being flown; provided that, subject to self-insurance to the extent permitted by Section 7.06(d) below, Company shall maintain or cause to be maintained insurance against risk of loss or damage to such non-flown Airframe or Engine in an amount at least equal to 110% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Equipment Notes during such period that such Airframe or Engine is on the ground and not being flown.

     (d) Self-Insurance. Company may from time to time self-insure, by way of deductible, self-insured retention, premium adjustment or franchise or otherwise (including, with respect to insurance maintained pursuant to Sections 7.06(a), 7.06(b) or 7.06(c), insuring for a maximum amount that is less than the amounts set forth in Sections 7.06(a), 7.06(b) and 7.06(c) above), the risks required to be insured against pursuant to Sections 7.06(a), 7.06(b) and 7.06(c) above, but in no case shall the self-insurance with respect to all of the aircraft and engines in the combined fleet of Company and its Affiliates (including, without limitation, the Aircraft) exceed for any 12-month policy year 1.0% of the average aggregate insurable value (during the preceding policy year) of all aircraft (including, without limitation, the Aircraft) on which Company and its Affiliates carry insurance, unless an insurance broker of national standing certifies that the standard among other major United States airlines is a higher level of self-insurance, in which case Company may self-insure the Aircraft to such higher level; provided that (1) any deductible per occurrence that, in the case of the Aircraft, is not in excess of the amount customarily allowed as a deductible in the industry or is required to facilitate claims handling or (2) any applicable mandatory minimum per aircraft (or if applicable per annum or other period) hull or liability insurance deductibles imposed by the aircraft hull or liability insurers shall be permitted in addition to the above-mentioned self-insurance.

     (e) Indemnification by United States Government in Lieu of Insurance. Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 7.06 requiring insurance, in lieu of insurance against any risk with respect to the Aircraft, indemnification from, or insurance provided by, the United States government, or any agency or instrumentality thereof, against such risk in an amount which, when added to the amount of insurance maintained against such risk by Company (or, if a Lease is then in effect, by the Permitted Lessee), shall be at least equal to the amount of insurance against such risk otherwise required by this Section 7.06 (taking into account self-insurance permitted by Section 7.06(d)) shall be considered adequate insurance for purposes of this Section 7.06.

     (f) Application of Insurance Payments. All losses will be adjusted by Company with the insurers. As between Loan Trustee and Company it is agreed that all insurance payments received under policies required to be maintained by Company hereunder, exclusive of any payments received in excess of the Loan Amount for the Aircraft from such policies, as the result of the occurrence of an Event of Loss with respect to the Airframe or an Engine will be applied as follows:

     (i) if such payments are received with respect to the Airframe or the Airframe and any Engines installed on the Airframe that has been or is being replaced by Company pursuant to Section 7.05(a), such payments shall be paid over to, or retained by, Loan Trustee and upon completion of such replacement shall be paid over to, or retained by, Company;

     (ii) if such payments are received with respect to the Airframe or the Airframe and any Engines installed on the Airframe that has not been and will not be replaced as contemplated by Section 7.05(a), so much of such payments remaining, after reimbursement of Loan Trustee for its costs and expenses, as do not exceed the amounts required to be paid by Company pursuant to Section 2.10 shall be applied in reduction of Company’s obligation to pay such amounts, if not already paid by Company, or, if already paid by Company, shall be applied to reimburse Company for its payment of such amounts, and the balance, if any, of such payment remaining thereafter will be paid over to, or retained by, Company; and

     (iii) if such payments are received with respect to an Engine, so much of such payments remaining after reimbursement of Loan Trustee for its costs and expenses shall be paid over to, or retained by, Company; provided that Company has fully performed its obligations under Section 7.05(b) with respect to the Event of Loss for which such payments are made.

     In all events, the insurance payment of any property damage or loss received under policies maintained by Company in excess of the Loan Amount for the Aircraft shall be paid to Company.

     The insurance payments for any loss or damage to the Airframe or an Engine not constituting an Event of Loss with respect to the Airframe or such Engine will be applied in payment (or to reimburse Company) for repairs or for replacement property in accordance with the terms of Sections 7.02 and 7.04, and any balance remaining after compliance with such Sections with respect to such loss or damage shall be paid to Company. Any amount referred to in the preceding sentence or in clause (i) or (ii) of the first paragraph of this Section 7.06(f) that is payable to Company shall not be paid to Company (or, if it has been previously paid directly to Company, shall not be retained by Company) if at the time of such payment an Event of Default or Payment Default has occurred and is continuing, but shall be paid to and held by Loan Trustee as security for

[Reg. No.]

71

the obligations of Company under this Indenture and the other Operative Documents and shall be invested pursuant to Section 5.06 unless and until such amount is applied, at the option of Loan Trustee, to Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the other Operative Documents as and when due, it being understood that any such application shall be made to such obligations of Company as Loan Trustee may determine in its sole discretion. At such time as there shall be continuing no Event of Default or Payment Default, such amount shall be paid to Company to the extent not previously applied in accordance with this Section 7.06(f).

     (g) Reports, Etc. On or before the Closing Date and annually following renewal of Company’s insurance coverage, Company will furnish to Loan Trustee and each Liquidity Provider current certificates of insurance and a report signed by a firm of independent aircraft insurance brokers appointed by Company (which brokers may be in the regular employ of Company), stating the opinion of such firm that the insurance then carried and maintained on the Aircraft complies with the terms hereof. All information contained in such report shall be Confidential Information and shall be treated by Loan Trustee and each Liquidity Provider and each of their Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, agents and employees in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.16. Company will cause such firm to notify Loan Trustee and each Liquidity Provider of any act or omission on the part of Company of which such firm has knowledge that might invalidate or render unenforceable, in whole or in part, any insurance on the Aircraft. Company will also cause such firm to notify Loan Trustee and each Liquidity Provider as promptly as practicable after such firm acquires knowledge that a cancellation of any insurance carried and maintained on the Aircraft pursuant to this Section 7.06 will occur. Such information may only be provided to other Persons in accordance with Section 10.16.

     In the event that Company shall fail to maintain or to cause to be maintained insurance as herein provided, Loan Trustee may at its option obtain such insurance (giving Company prompt written notice thereof, but the failure to so notify Company shall not in any way affect the rights of Loan Trustee hereunder) and, in such event, Company shall, upon demand, reimburse Loan Trustee for the cost to Loan Trustee of such insurance, together with interest thereon at the Past Due Rate for the period commencing with the date such cost was paid to the date of reimbursement; provided, however, that no exercise by Loan Trustee of said option shall affect the provisions of this Indenture, including the provisions that failure by Company to maintain the prescribed insurance shall constitute an Event of Default.

     (e) Salvage Rights; Other. All salvage rights to the Airframe and each Engine shall remain with Company’s insurers at all times, and any insurance policies of Loan Trustee insuring the Airframe or any Engine shall provide for a release to Company of any and all salvage rights in and to the Airframe or any Engine. Neither Loan Trustee nor any Noteholder may, directly or indirectly, obtain insurance for its own account with

72

respect to the Airframe or any Engine if such insurance would limit or otherwise adversely affect the coverage or amounts payable under, or increase the premiums for, any insurance required to be maintained pursuant to this Section 7.06 or any other insurance maintained with respect to the Aircraft or any other aircraft in Company’s fleet.

ARTICLE VIII

Successor and Additional Trustees

     Section 8.01 Resignation or Removal; Appointment of Successor.

     (a) The resignation or removal of Loan Trustee and the appointment of a successor Loan Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Loan Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 8.01. Loan Trustee or any successor thereto must resign if at any time it ceases to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.01(c) and may resign at any time without cause by giving at least 60 days’ prior written notice to Company and each Noteholder. In addition, either Company (so long as no Event of Default or Payment Default shall have occurred and be continuing) or a Majority in Interest of Noteholders (but only with the consent of Company so long as no Event of Default or Payment Default shall have occurred and be continuing), may at any time remove Loan Trustee without cause by an instrument in writing delivered to Loan Trustee and each Noteholder, and, in case of a removal by a Majority in Interest of Noteholders, to Company. In the case of the resignation or removal of Loan Trustee, Company shall promptly appoint a successor Loan Trustee.

If such bank, trust company or corporation publishes reports of conditions at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of federal, state, territorial or District of Columbia supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 8.01(c) the combined capital and surplus of such bank, trust company or corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of conditions so published. In case at any time Loan Trustee ceases to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.01(c), Loan Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 8.01(a).

trustee or trustees of all or any part of the Collateral, in each case with such rights, powers, duties and obligations consistent with this Indenture as is provided in such supplemental indenture or other instruments as Loan Trustee or a Majority in Interest of Noteholders deems necessary or advisable, or (2) to clarify, add to or subtract from the rights, powers, duties and obligations theretofore granted any such additional or separate trustee, subject in each case to the remaining provisions of this Section 8.02. If no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no additional or supplemental trustee shall be appointed without Company’s consent. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Loan Trustee may act under the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.02(a) without the concurrence of Company, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Company hereby irrevocably appoints (which appointment is coupled with an interest) Loan Trustee as its agent and attorney-in-fact to act for it under the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.02(a). Loan Trustee may, in such capacity, execute, deliver and perform any such supplemental indenture, or any such instrument, as may be required for the appointment of any such additional or separate trustee or for the clarification of, addition to or subtraction from the rights, powers, duties or obligations theretofore granted to any such additional or separate trustee, subject in each case to the remaining provisions of this Section 8.02. In case any additional or separate trustee appointed under this Section 8.02(a) becomes incapable of acting, resigns or is removed, all the assets, property, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of such additional or separate trustee shall revert to Loan Trustee until a successor additional or separate trustee is appointed as provided in this Section 8.02(a).

     (b) No additional or separate trustee shall be entitled to exercise any of the rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred upon Loan Trustee in respect of the custody, investment and payment of monies and all monies received by any such additional or separate trustee from or constituting part of the Collateral or otherwise payable under any Operative Documents to Loan Trustee shall be promptly paid over by it to Loan Trustee. All other rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon any additional or separate trustee shall be exercised or performed by Loan Trustee and such additional or separate trustee jointly except to the extent that applicable law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act is to be performed renders Loan Trustee incompetent or unqualified to perform such act, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to all or part of the Collateral in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed by such additional or separate trustee. No additional or separate trustee shall take any discretionary action except on the instructions of Loan Trustee or a Majority in Interest of Noteholders. No trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder, except that Loan Trustee shall be liable for the consequences of its lack of reasonable care in selecting, and Loan Trustee’s own actions in acting with, any additional or separate trustee. Each additional or separate trustee appointed pursuant to this Section 8.02 shall be subject to, and shall have the benefit of Articles IV, V, VI, VIII, IX and X insofar as they apply to Loan Trustee. The powers of any additional or separate

trustee appointed pursuant to this Section 8.02 shall not in any case exceed those of Loan Trustee.

     (c) If at any time Loan Trustee deems it no longer necessary or desirable or in the event that Loan Trustee has been requested to do so in writing by a Majority in Interest of Noteholders, Loan Trustee and, upon the written request of Loan Trustee, Company, shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto and all other instruments and agreements necessary or proper to remove any additional or separate trustee. Loan Trustee may act on behalf of Company under this Section 8.02(c) when and to the extent it could so act under Section 8.02(a). In any case, Company may remove an additional or separate trustee in the manner set forth in Section 8.01.

assumed, without independent investigation or inquiry, the legal capacity of all natural persons executing documents, the genuineness of all signatures on original or certified copies, the authenticity and completeness of all original or certified copies, and the conformity to original or certified documents of all copies submitted to us as conformed or reproduction copies. We also have relied upon, and have assumed the accuracy of, the representations and warranties as to factual matters contained in the Pass Through Trust Agreement and Trust Supplement that we have examined and representations, statements, and certificates of or from public officials and of or from officers and representatives of the Company and others. We have further assumed that the Pass Through Certificates have been issued, delivered and paid for in accordance with the terms of the Underwriting Agreement.

     Based on and subject to the foregoing and subject to the further qualifications and assumptions set forth below, we are of the opinion that the Pass Through Certificates constitute the valid and binding obligation of the Trustee, enforceable against the Trustee in accordance with their terms, and the holders of such Pass Through Certificates are entitled to the benefits of the Pass Through Trust Agreement and the Trust Supplement.

     Our opinion set forth above is subject to the effects of: (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer, reorganization and moratorium laws and other similar laws relating to or affecting lessors’, creditors’ or secured parties’ rights or remedies generally, (ii) general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity), (iii) concepts of good faith, reasonableness and fair dealing, and standards of materiality and (iv) limitations on the validity or enforceability of indemnification, contribution or exculpation under applicable law (including court decisions) or public policy. Without limiting the foregoing, we express no opinion as to the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any provision of the Pass Through Certificates or the Pass Through Trust Agreement, as amended by the Trust Supplement, that purports to (a) waive, release or vary any defense, right or privilege of, or any duties owing to, any party to the extent that such waiver, release or variation may be limited by Section 1-102(3) of the Uniform Commercial Code (as in effect in any applicable jurisdiction) or other provisions of applicable law, (b) constitute a waiver of inconvenient forum or improper venue, (c) relate to the subject matter jurisdiction of a court to adjudicate any controversy or (d) provide that any prohibited or unenforceable provision thereof may be severed without invalidating the remaining provisions thereof. In addition, the enforceability of any provision in the Pass Through Certificates or the Pass Through Trust Agreement, as amended by the Trust Supplement, to the effect that (x) the terms thereof may not be waived or modified except in writing, or (y) certain determinations made by one party shall have conclusive effect, may be limited under certain circumstances. We express no opinion as to any provisions of the Pass Through Certificates or the Pass Through Trust Agreement, as amended by the Trust Supplement, relating to the submission to the jurisdiction of any court other than the courts of the State

Delta Air Lines, Inc. 3 July 2, 2010

of New York sitting in the County of New York and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and we express no opinion as to whether a United States Federal court would accept jurisdiction in any dispute, action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Pass Through Certificates or the Pass Through Trust Agreement, as amended by the Trust Supplement, or any of the transactions contemplated thereby.

     We express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the State of New York and the Federal laws of the United States of America, as currently in effect, in each case that in our experience are normally applicable to transactions of this type, except that we do not express any opinion concerning aviation laws (including without limitation Title 49 of the U.S. Code, the Cape Town Treaty or any other laws, rules, or regulations of the United States of America or promulgated under the Cape Town Treaty relating to the acquisition, ownership, registration, leasing, financing, mortgaging, use or operation of any aircraft, aircraft engines or any part thereof) or other laws, rules or regulations applicable to the particular nature of the equipment subject to the Pass Through Trust Agreement, as amended by the Trust Supplement, or the business conducted by the Company or the Trustee. In addition, we express no opinion with respect to the antitrust, bankruptcy, environmental, securities or tax laws of any jurisdiction. Our opinions expressed above are limited to the laws of the State of New York governing the enforceability of contracts as such.

     In rendering the opinions set forth above, we have assumed that each of the Company and the Trustee is duly formed, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation and has the full power and authority to carry on its business and to execute and deliver and, as applicable, issue and authenticate the Pass Through Trust Agreement, the Trust Supplement and the Pass Through Certificates, and to perform its obligations thereunder. We have further assumed that the execution and delivery by each of the Company and the Trustee of the Pass Through Trust Agreement, the Trust Supplement and the Pass Through Certificates and the performance of their respective obligations thereunder (i) do not and will not contravene, violate, conflict with, breach, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time) a default under, or result in the creation of a lien upon any of its properties under, the terms of (x) its charter or by-laws or other constituent documents, (y) any agreement, instrument, obligation, or contract to which it is a party or by which it or its properties may be bound, or (z) any applicable law, rule, or regulation or any applicable requirement or restriction imposed by any court, tribunal, or governmental body and (ii) do not and will not require any consent, approval, authorization, registration, or filing under any applicable law, rule, or regulation (other than those that have been obtained). We have exclusively relied, with your permission, on certain matters set forth in the opinion of Shipman & Goodwin LLP, counsel to U.S. Bank Trust, dated today and delivered to you.

     We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on the date hereof and incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement and to the use of our name under the caption “Validity of the Class A Certificates” in the Prospectus.

TO THE PARTIES SET FORTH
IN SCHEDULE A HERETO

RE: Delta Air Lines 2010-1 Pass Through Certificates Form S-3 Registration Opinion

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     We have acted as counsel to U.S. Bank Trust National Association (i) in its individual capacity (“U.S. Bank Trust”), (ii) as Pass Through Trustee (the “Basic Agreement Pass Through Trustee”) under the Pass Through Trust Agreement, dated as of November 16, 2000, between Delta Air Lines, Inc. (the “Company”) and U.S. Bank Trust (as successor in interest to State Street Bank and Trust Company of Connecticut, National Association) (the “Basic Agreement”), and (iii) in its capacity as Pass Through Trustee (together with the Basic Agreement Pass Through Trustee, the “Pass Through Trustee”) under that certain Trust Supplement No. 2010-1A to the Basic Agreement dated as of the date hereof between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust (the “Trust Supplement”), pursuant to which the Delta Air Lines Pass Through Certificates, Series 2010-1A (the “Pass Through Certificates”) have been issued, pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-167811) of the Company filed on July 28, 2010 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Registration Statement”). This opinion is delivered to you at the request of U.S. Bank Trust. Except as otherwise defined herein, terms used herein shall have the meanings set forth in, or by reference to, the Basic Agreement and the Trust Supplement. As used herein, the term “Prospectus” means the final prospectus supplement and the base prospectus relating to the Pass Through Certificates in the form filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Act (as defined below) on June 29, 2010.

     Our representation of U.S. Bank Trust and the Pass Through Trustee has been as special counsel for the limited purposes stated above. As to all matters of fact (including factual conclusions and characterizations and descriptions of purpose, intention or other state of mind), we have relied, with your permission, entirely upon (i) the representations and warranties of the parties set forth in the Operative Documents (as defined below) and (ii) certificates delivered to us by the management of U.S. Bank Trust and have assumed, without independent inquiry, the accuracy of those representations, warranties and certificates.

Page 2

     We have examined the Basic Agreement, the Trust Supplement (collectively, the “Operative Documents”), the Pass Through Certificates, and originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such other records, documents, certificates, or other instruments as we have deemed necessary or advisable for the purposes of this opinion.

     When an opinion set forth below is given to the best of our knowledge, or to our knowledge, or with reference to matters of which we are aware or which are known to us, or with another similar qualification, the relevant knowledge or awareness is limited to the individual lawyers in the firm who have participated directly and substantively in the specific transactions to which this opinion relates, and without any special or additional investigation undertaken for the purposes of this opinion.

     Subject to the limitation set forth below, we have made such examination of law as we have deemed necessary for the purposes of this opinion. The following opinions on behalf of U.S. Bank Trust, in its individual capacity and as Pass Through Trustee are limited to the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the federal laws of the United States of America governing the banking and trust powers of U.S. Bank Trust. We express no opinion with respect to federal securities laws, including the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended or state securities or blue sky laws. In addition, other than our opinion expressed in paragraph 1 below with respect to the citizenship of U.S. Bank Trust, no opinion is expressed as to matters governed by any law, statute, rule or regulation of the United States relating to the acquisition, ownership, registration, use, operation, maintenance, repair, replacement or sale of or the nature of the Aircraft.

     To the extent to which this opinion deals with matters governed by or relating to the laws of the State of New York or other jurisdiction other than the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, we have assumed with your permission that the Operative Documents are governed by the internal substantive laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

     Our opinion is further subject to the following exceptions, qualifications and assumptions:

(a) We have assumed without any independent investigation that (i) each party to the Operative Documents, other than U.S. Bank Trust, in its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee, as applicable, at all times relevant thereto, is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized, and is qualified to do business and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where such qualification is required generally or necessary in order for such party to enforce its rights under the Operative Documents, and (ii) each party to the Operative Documents (other than U.S. Bank Trust and the Pass Through Trustee), at all times relevant thereto, had and has the full power, authority and legal right under its certificate of incorporation, partnership agreement, by-laws, and other governing organizational documents, and the applicable corporate, partnership, or other enterprise legislation and other applicable laws, as the case may be, to execute, deliver and to perform its obligations under the Operative Documents.

Page 3

(b) We have assumed without any independent investigation that each of the Operative Documents is a valid, binding and enforceable obligation of each party thereto other than U.S. Bank Trust and the Pass Through Trustee, as applicable.

(c) We express no opinion as to the availability of any specific or equitable relief of any kind.

(d) The enforcement of any of your rights may in all cases be subject to an implied duty of good faith and fair dealing and to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity) and, as to any of your rights to collateral security, will be subject to a duty to, act in a commercially reasonable manner.

(e) We express no opinion as to the enforceability of any particular provision of any of the Operative Documents relating to (i) waivers of rights to object to jurisdiction or venue, or consents to jurisdiction or venue, (ii) waivers of rights to (or methods of) service of process, or rights to trial by jury, or other rights or benefits bestowed by operation of law, (iii) waivers of any applicable defenses, setoffs, recoupments, or counterclaims, (iv) the grant of powers of attorney to any person or entity, (v) exculpation or exoneration clauses, indemnity clauses, and clauses relating to releases or waivers of unmatured claims or rights, (vi) the imposition or collection of interest on overdue interest or providing for a penalty rate of interest or late charges on overdue or defaulted obligations, or the payment of any premium, liquidated damages, or other amount which may be held by any court to be a “penalty” or a “forfeiture,” or (vii) so-called “usury savings clauses” purporting to specify methods of (or otherwise assure) compliance with usury laws or other similar laws of any jurisdiction.

(f) In addition to any other limitation by operation of law upon the scope, meaning or purpose of this opinion, this opinion speaks only as of the date hereof. We have no obligation to advise the recipients of this opinion (or any third party) of changes of law or fact that may occur after the date hereof, even though the change may affect the legal analysis, a legal conclusion or any information contained herein.

     All opinions contained herein with respect to the enforceability of documents and instruments are qualified to the extent that:

     (a) the availability of equitable remedies, including, without limitation, specific enforcement and injunctive relief, is subject to the discretion of the court before which any proceedings therefor may be brought; and

     (b) the enforceability of certain terms provided in the Operative Documents may be limited by

Page 4

     (i) applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, arrangement, insolvency, moratorium or similar law affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally as at the time in effect, and

     (ii) general principles of equity and the discretion of a court in granting equitable remedies (whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity).

      This opinion is rendered solely for the benefit of those institutions listed on Schedule A hereto and their successors and assigns in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents and may not be used or relied upon by any other person or for any other purpose.

1.	U.S. Bank Trust is a national banking association validly existing and authorized to operate as a national banking association under the laws of the United States of America, is a “citizen of the United States” within the meaning of Section 40102(a)(15) of Title 49 of the United States Code and, in its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee, as the case may be, has the requisite corporate and trust power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Operative Documents, and U.S. Bank Trust, in its capacity as Pass Through Trustee, has the requisite corporate and trust power and authority to issue, execute, deliver and authenticate the Pass Through Certificates.
2.	U.S. Bank Trust, in its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee, as the case may be, has duly authorized the Operative Documents, is the duly authorized successor pass through trustee under the Basic Agreement, has duly executed and delivered the Trust Supplement, and the Operative Documents constitute the valid and binding obligations of U.S. Bank Trust, in its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee, as the case may be, enforceable against U.S. Bank Trust, in its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee, as the case may be, in accordance with their respective terms.
3.	The issuance of the Pass Through Certificates by the Pass Through Trustee has been authorized by all necessary corporate and trust action by the Pass Through Trustee. Each Pass Through Certificate has been duly authenticated, executed and delivered in accordance with the Basic Agreement and the Trust Supplement and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Pass Through Trustee, enforceable against the Pass Through Trustee in accordance with its terms, and the holders of such Pass Through Certificates are entitled to the benefits of the Basic Agreement and the Trust Supplement.
4.	The authorization, execution, delivery and performance by U.S. Bank Trust, in its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee, as the case may be, of the Operative Documents and the consummation of the transactions therein contemplated and compliance with the terms thereof and the issuance of the Pass Through Certificates thereunder do not and will not result in the violation of the provisions of the charter documents or by-laws of U.S. Bank Trust and, to the best of our knowledge, do not

Page 5

conflict with, or result in a breach of any terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or the imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of U.S. Bank Trust in its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee under any indenture, mortgage or other agreement or instrument, in each case known to us, to which U.S. Bank Trust in its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound, or violate any applicable Massachusetts or federal law, rule or regulation governing U.S. Bank Trust’s banking or trust powers, or, to the best of our knowledge, of any judgment, license, registration, permit, order or decree, in each case known to us, applicable to U.S. Bank Trust in its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency, government or Governmental body having jurisdiction over U.S. Bank Trust in its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee.

5.

No authorization, approval, consent, license or order of, giving of notice to, registration with, or taking of any other action in respect of, any federal or Massachusetts state governmental authority or agency pursuant to any federal or Massachusetts law governing the banking or trust powers of U.S. Bank Trust is required for the authorization, execution, delivery and performance by U.S. Bank Trust, in its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee, as the case may be, of the Operative Documents or the consummation of any of the transactions by U.S. Bank Trust, in its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee, as the case may be, contemplated thereby or the issuance of the Pass Through Certificates under the Basic Agreement, as supplemented by the Trust Supplement (except as shall have been duly obtained, given or taken); and such authorization, execution, delivery, performance, consummation and issuance do not conflict with or result in a breach of the provisions of any such law.

6.

To our knowledge, but without having investigated any governmental records or court dockets, and without having made any other independent investigation, there are no proceedings pending or overtly threatened in writing against or affecting U.S. Bank Trust in any court or before any governmental authority, agency, arbitration board or tribunal which, if adversely determined, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to affect materially and adversely the pass through trust created pursuant to the Operative Documents or affect the right, power and authority of U.S. Bank Trust, in its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee, as the case may be, to enter into or perform its obligations under the Operative Documents or to issue the Pass Through Certificates.

     We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on the date hereof and incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement and to the use of our name under the heading “Validity of the Certificates” in the Prospectus. In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we come within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

     The law firm Debevoise & Plimpton LLP is entitled to rely upon this opinion letter in rendering its opinion as described in the Registration Statement under the heading “Validity of

Page 6

the Certificates” and filed as an Exhibit to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on the date hereof as if addressed and delivered to it subject to all assumptions, qualifications and limitations set forth herein.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     I am Vice President and Deputy General Counsel of Delta Air Lines, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and have acted as such in connection with the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-167811) (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and in connection with the issuance and sale by the Company today of $450,000,000 face amount of Pass Through Certificates, Series 2010-1A (the “Pass Through Certificates”), pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, dated June 28, 2010 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), among the Company and Goldman, Sachs & Co. and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, as representatives of the several underwriters listed on Schedule I thereto (the “Underwriters”). The Pass Through Certificates will be issued under the Pass Through Trust Agreement (the “Pass Through Trust Agreement”), dated as of November 16, 2000, between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust National Association (as successor-in-interest to State Street Bank and Trust Company of Connecticut, National Association), as pass through trustee for the trust relating to the Pass Through Certificates (being referred to herein individually as the “Trustee”), as supplemented for the Pass Through Certificates by the Trust Supplement 2010-1A, dated as of July 2, 2010 (the “Trust Supplement”). As used herein, the term “Prospectus” means the final prospectus supplement relating to the Pass Through Certificates in the form filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Act on June 29, 2010.

     In so acting, I or counsel under my general supervision have examined the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the Pass Through Trust Agreement and the Trust Supplement and have also examined and relied upon the representations and warranties contained therein or made pursuant thereto, and on certificates of officers of the Company and of public officials as to factual matters, and upon the originals, or copies

certified or otherwise identified to my satisfaction, of such records, documents and other instruments as in my judgment are necessary or advisable to enable me to render the opinion expressed below. In all such examinations, I have assumed the genuineness of all signatures (other than those on behalf of the Company), the legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals and the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to me as certified or photostatic copies, and as to certificates and telegraphic and telephonic confirmations given by public officials, I have assumed the same to have been properly given and to be accurate.

     Based on the foregoing and subject to the assumptions and qualifications set forth below, I am of the following opinion:

     1. The Company has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.

     2. The Company has the corporate power and authority under Delaware law to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Pass Through Trust Agreement and the Trust Supplement.

     3. The Pass Through Trust Agreement and the Trust Supplement have been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered by the Company.

     The opinions expressed herein are limited in all respects to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the applicable provisions of the Delaware Constitution, and the reported judicial decisions interpreting these laws, and the federal laws of the United States, except that I express no opinion with respect to the antitrust, bankruptcy, environmental, securities or tax laws of any jurisdiction, and no opinion is expressed with respect to the laws of any other jurisdiction or any effect which such law may have on the opinions expressed herein.

     This opinion letter is limited to the matters stated, and no opinion is implied or may be inferred beyond those opinions expressly stated herein. The opinions expressed herein are rendered only as of the date hereof, and I assume no responsibility to advise you of changes in law, facts, circumstances, events or developments which hereafter may be brought to my attention and which may alter, affect or modify such opinions.

In addition, we have assumed, without independent investigation or inquiry, (i) the authenticity and completeness of all documents submitted to us as originals, (ii) the genuineness of all signatures on all documents that we examined, (iii) the conformity to authentic originals and completeness of documents submitted to us as certified, conformed or reproduction copies, (iv) the legal capacity of all natural persons executing documents, (v) the performance of all covenants and other undertakings set forth in, and the consummation of all transactions contemplated by, the Transaction Documents in accordance with the terms thereof, and (vi) that none of the material terms and conditions of the Transaction Documents have been or will be waived or modified and that there are no documents or understandings between the parties that would alter, or are inconsistent with, the terms set forth in the Transaction Documents. We have further assumed that the Certificates have been issued, delivered and paid for in accordance with the terms of the Prospectus.
