CONTINENTAL AIRLINES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

In our opinion, the unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. Such adjustments, other than nonrecurring adjustments that have been separately disclosed, are of a normal, recurring nature. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto contained in Amendment No. 1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 (the "2004 Form 10-K/A"). As used in these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the terms "Continental," "we," "us," "our" and similar terms refer to Continental Airlines, Inc. and, unless the context indicates otherwise, its consolidated subsidiaries.

Primarily due to record-high fuel prices and the continued weak domestic fare environment, the current U.S. domestic network carrier financial environment continues to be poor and could deteriorate further. Among the many factors that threaten us are the continued rapid growth of low-cost carriers and resulting downward pressure on domestic fares, high fuel costs, high labor costs for our flight attendants, excessive taxation, increased security costs and significant pension liabilities. These factors are discussed in the "Overview" section of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2004 Form 10-K/A.

We have had substantial losses since September 11, 2001, the magnitude of which is not sustainable. We have attempted to return to profitability by implementing the majority of $1.1 billion of annual cost-cutting and revenue-generating measures since 2002, and we have also made significant progress toward our goal of achieving an additional annual $500 million reduction in pay and benefits costs. We finalized changes to wages, work rules and benefits for all employees except our flight attendants and certain employees of our wholly-owned subsidiary Continental Micronesia, Inc. ("CMI") who are subject to collective bargaining agreements. We began implementing these changes in early April 2005, which, when fully implemented, are expected to result in approximately $418 million of annual pay and benefits cost savings on a run-rate basis.

A significant portion of the cost savings from our work groups, both unionized and non-unionized, will be derived from changes to benefits and work rules. Our ability to achieve certain of the cost reductions will depend on effective implementation of new work rules, actual productivity improvements and implementation of changes in technology pertaining to employee work rules and benefits.

The current levels of pay and benefits for our flight attendants are not competitive. We have reengaged in discussions with our flight attendants concerning pay and benefit reductions, but have been unable to reach a tentative agreement. At our request, on July 6, 2005, the National Mediation Board appointed a federal mediator to assist us in reaching an agreement for pay and benefits reductions with our flight attendants, who are represented by the International Association of Machinists ("IAM").

Although revenue trends have been improving as we operate during what is historically the strongest period of the year, we still expect to incur a significant loss in 2005 due in large part to current high fuel prices. We have been able to implement some fare increases on certain domestic and international routes in recent months, but these increases have not fully offset the substantial increase in fuel prices.

Absent adverse factors outside our control, such as additional terrorist attacks, hostilities involving the United States or further significant increases in fuel prices, we currently believe that our existing liquidity and projected 2006 cash flows will be sufficient to fund our current operations and other financial obligations through 2006. However, we have significant financial obligations due in 2007 and thereafter, and it is possible that we will have inadequate liquidity to meet those obligations if the current adverse domestic environment for network carriers does not improve materially, fuel prices remain high and we are unable to increase our revenue or decrease our costs considerably or raise additional liquidity through financing activities and/or by selling non-strategic assets. Our recent pay and benefit cost reductions will help us reduce our costs, but we do not expect that these reductions in and of themselves will restore our long-term profitability in the c urrent environment.

NOTE 1 - EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Components. The following table sets forth the components of basic and diluted earnings per share (in millions):

Denominator for diluted earnings (loss) per share - adjusted weighted-average and assumed conversion	85.5	66.0	66.6	65.9

Potential Common Shares. Weighted average options to purchase approximately 5.1 million, 6.3 million, 5.6 million and 6.3 million shares of our Class B common stock were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share for each of the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 and each of the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, because the options' exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares during the relevant periods or the effect of including the options would have been antidilutive. In addition, 17.9 million potential common shares related to our Convertible Junior Subordinated Debentures Held by Subsidiary Trust, 4.5% Convertible Notes and 5% Convertible Notes were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and each of the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 because they were antidilutive.

NOTE 2 - FLEET INFORMATION

Operating Fleet. As shown in the following table, our operating aircraft fleet consisted of 348 mainline jets and 256 regional jets at June 30, 2005, excluding aircraft out of service. The regional jets are leased by ExpressJet Airlines, Inc. ("ExpressJet") from us and are operated by ExpressJet as Continental Express. Our purchase commitments (firm orders) for aircraft, as well as options to purchase or lease additional aircraft as of June 30, 2005 are also shown below.

Used aircraft to be leased.

During the first half of 2005, we placed into service one 737-800 aircraft, which was delivered in late 2004, and ExpressJet took delivery of 11 ERJ-145XR aircraft, six of which were delivered in the second quarter.

Substantially all of the aircraft and engines we own are subject to mortgages. A significant portion of our spare parts inventory is also encumbered.

Firm Order and Option Aircraft. On March 30, 2005, we confirmed our previously announced agreement with Boeing for a firm order of ten new 787 aircraft, with the first 787 expected to be delivered in 2009. In addition to the ten firm order aircraft, we have options to purchase five additional 787 aircraft. We also confirmed our agreement to lease eight used 757-300 aircraft. We expect the 757-300 aircraft to be delivered beginning in the third quarter of 2005 through the first quarter of 2006. Additionally, we have accelerated into 2006 the delivery of six Boeing 737-800 aircraft that were previously scheduled to be delivered in 2008. Taking these new agreements with Boeing into consideration, as of June 30, 2005, we had firm purchase commitments for 57 aircraft from Boeing, with an estimated aggregate cost of approximately $2.6 billion, lease commitments for eight aircraft and options to purchase an additional 35 Boeing aircraft. Including three aircraft already delivered in July 2005, we expect to take delivery of 13 Boeing aircraft over the remaining six months of 2005 (seven new 737-800s and six 757-300s) and eight in 2006 (six new 737-800s and two 757-300s), with delivery of the remaining 44 Boeing aircraft occurring from 2008 through 2011.

In May 2005, we obtained a lease financing commitment from a third party for the seven new Boeing 737-800 aircraft scheduled to be delivered in the second half of 2005. We also have backstop lease financing for the six 737-800 aircraft expected to be delivered in 2006. By virtue of these agreements, we have secured financing for all Boeing aircraft scheduled to be delivered in 2005 and 2006. However, we currently do not have backstop financing or any other financing in place for the remainder of the Boeing firm aircraft that are scheduled to be delivered between 2008 and 2011. Further financing will be needed to satisfy our capital commitments for our firm aircraft. We can provide no assurance that sufficient financing will be available for the aircraft on order or other related capital expenditures, or for our capital expenditures generally.

As of June 30, 2005, ExpressJet had firm commitments for 18 regional jets from Empresa Brasileira de Aeronautica S.A. ("Embraer"), with an estimated cost of approximately $0.4 billion. ExpressJet currently anticipates taking delivery of ten of these firm commitment regional jets during the second half of 2005, with the remainder being delivered in 2006. ExpressJet does not have an obligation to take any of these firm Embraer aircraft that are not financed by a third party and leased to either ExpressJet or us. Under the capacity purchase agreement between us and ExpressJet, we have agreed to lease as lessee and sublease to ExpressJet the regional jets that are subject to ExpressJet's firm purchase commitments. In addition, under the capacity purchase agreement with ExpressJet, we generally are obligated to purchase all of the capacity provided by these new aircraft as they are delivered to ExpressJet.

Out-of-Service Aircraft. In addition to the above operating aircraft, we had 12 owned and nine leased MD-80 aircraft permanently removed from service as of June 30, 2005. The owned out-of-service MD-80 aircraft are being carried at an aggregate fair market value of $22 million, and the remaining rentals on the leased out-of-service MD-80 aircraft have been accrued. As of June 30, 2005, we subleased one of the leased out-of-service MD-80 aircraft to a third party and we are currently exploring lease or sale opportunities for the remaining out-of-service aircraft. We cannot predict when or if purchasers, lessees or sublessees can be found, and it is possible that our owned MD-80 aircraft could suffer additional impairment.

Additionally, we have 12 Embraer 120 turboprop aircraft and nine ATR 42 turboprop aircraft out-of-service. We own nine and lease 12 of these aircraft. The nine owned aircraft are being carried at an aggregate fair value of $8 million, and the remaining rentals on the leased aircraft have been accrued. We currently sublease three of the leased out-of-service turboprop aircraft to a third party and are exploring lease or sale opportunities for the remaining out-of-service aircraft, subject to the same uncertainties as the out-of-service mainline aircraft discussed above.

NOTE 3 - LONG-TERM DEBT

Secured Loan Facility. In June 2005, we and our two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Air Micronesia, Inc. ("AMI") and CMI, closed on a $350 million secured loan facility. AMI and CMI have unconditionally guaranteed the loan made to us, and we and AMI have unconditionally guaranteed the loan made to CMI.

The facility consists of two loans, both of which have a term of six years and are non-amortizing, except for certain mandatory prepayments described below. The loans accrue interest at a floating rate determined by reference to the three-month London Interbank Offered Rate, known as LIBOR, plus 5.375% per annum. The loans and guarantees are secured by certain of our U.S.-Asia routes and related assets, all of the outstanding common stock of AMI and CMI and substantially all of the other assets of AMI and CMI, including route authorities and related assets.

The loan documents require us to maintain a minimum balance of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $1.0 billion dollars at the end of each month. The loans may become due and payable immediately if we fail to maintain the monthly minimum cash balance and upon the occurrence of other customary events of default under the loan documents. If we fail to maintain a minimum balance of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $1.125 billion, we and CMI will be required to make a mandatory aggregate $50 million prepayment of the loans. In addition, if the ratio of the outstanding loan balance to the value of the collateral securing the loans, as determined by periodic appraisals, is greater than 48%, we and CMI will be required to post additional collateral or prepay the loans to reestablish a loan-to-collateral value ratio of not greater than 48%.

Credit Card Marketing Agreement. In March 2005, we extended our current agreement with Chase Manhattan Bank USA, N.A. ("Chase") to jointly market credit cards. In addition to reaching an agreement on advertising and other marketing commitments, Chase agreed to increase the rate it pays for mileage credits under our frequent flyer program. In April 2005, Chase purchased $75 million of mileage credits under the program which will be redeemed for mileage purchases in 2007 and 2008 and recognized as revenue consistent with other mileage sales in 2007 and 2008. In consideration for the advance purchase of mileage credits, we have provided a security interest to Chase in certain transatlantic routes. The $75 million purchase of mileage credits has been treated as a loan from Chase and is reported as long-term debt in our balance sheet and will be reduced ratably in 2007 and 2008 as the mileage credits are redeemed. The new agreement extends through the end of 2009.

Maturities. Maturities of long-term debt due through December 31, 2005 and over the next four years are as follows (in millions):

NOTE 4 - STOCK PLANS AND AWARDS

Pro Forma Information. We account for our stock-based compensation plans under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." No stock-based employee compensation cost for our stock option plans is reflected in our consolidated statements of operations, as all options granted under our plans have an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.

The following table illustrates the pro forma effect on net loss and loss per share if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Account Standards No. 123 ("SFAS 123"), "Accounting for Stock-based Compensation," for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 (in millions except per share amounts):

		Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,

As reported	$1.26		$(0.43)	$(1.29)	$(2.80)
Pro forma	$1.16		$(0.46)	$(1.46)	$(2.84)

Grants of Options to Employees. In connection with the pay and benefit cost reductions discussed herein, on March 30, 2005 we issued to substantially all employees, except flight attendants, officers, employees of CMI and certain international employees, stock options for approximately 8.5 million shares of our Class B common stock with an exercise price of $11.89 per share. The exercise price was the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. The options represent approximately 12.8 percent of the currently outstanding shares of our common stock. The options will generally become exercisable in three equal installments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of grant, and will have terms of either six or eight years.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan. All of our employees (including CMI employees) are eligible to participate in the 2004 Employee Stock Purchase Plan. At the end of each fiscal quarter, participants may purchase shares of our Class B common stock at 85% of the fair market value of the stock on either the first day or the last day of the option period (whichever is lower), limited to a minimum purchase price of $10 per share. In the aggregate, 3,000,000 shares may be purchased under the plan. These shares may be newly issued or reacquired shares. During the first six months of 2005, 399,562 shares of Class B common stock were issued to participants at a weighted-average purchase price of $10.09 per share.

Pending Accounting Pronouncement. In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued a revision of SFAS 123, "Share Based Payment" ("SFAS 123R"), which requires companies to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments (typically stock options) based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The fair value is to be estimated using an option-pricing model. The resulting cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. Under the original SFAS 123, this accounting treatment was optional with pro forma disclosures required.

We are required to adopt SFAS 123R no later than January 1, 2006. It will be effective for all awards granted after that date and for the unvested portion of awards granted prior to the adoption date. The expense that will be recognized with respect to such unvested awards will be based on the grant-date fair value and vesting schedule of those awards used in calculating the pro forma disclosures required under SFAS 123 and presented above. We anticipate that the impact of adopting SFAS 123R on our statement of operations will be similar to the pro forma impact of SFAS 123 presented above. Adoption of SFAS 123R will not affect our overall financial position or liquidity.

NOTE 5 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

We include in other comprehensive income (loss) changes in minimum pension liabilities and changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments which qualify for hedge accounting. For the second quarter of 2005 and 2004, total comprehensive income (loss) amounted to $108 million and $(14) million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, total comprehensive income (loss) amounted to $(90) million and $(166) million, respectively. Total comprehensive income (loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2005 includes a $23 million loss adjustment to the minimum pension liability resulting from the curtailment recorded during the first quarter of 2005 discussed in Note 6. The remaining difference between net income (loss) and total comprehensive income (loss) for each period was attributable to changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments.

NOTE 6 - EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

Defined Benefit Pension Plan. Net periodic defined benefit pension expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 included the following components (in millions):

	Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,
	2005	2004	2005	2004

Service cost	$ 20	$ 38	$ 60	$ 76
Interest cost	36	38	79	76
Expected return on plan assets	(31)	(29)	(62)	(58)
Amortization of prior service cost	2	5	7	10
Amortization of unrecognized net actuarial loss	17	24	39	42
Net periodic benefit expense	44	76	123	146
Curtailment loss (included in special charges)	-	-	43	-
Net benefit expense	$ 44	$ 76	$166	$146

Under the new collective bargaining agreement that our pilots ratified on March 30, 2005, benefit accruals with respect to the pilots under our defined benefit pension plan were frozen effective May 31, 2005, the assets and obligations related to pilots thereunder are being placed in a separate frozen defined benefit pension plan and we are obligated to establish and make contributions to a new defined contribution retirement program for pilots. All of the pilots' existing accrued benefits under our defined benefit plan at the date of the freeze have been preserved, including the right to receive a lump-sum payment upon retirement. Funding requirements under our pre-existing defined benefit pension plans (as well as the separate frozen defined benefit pension plan for pilots) will continue to be determined under applicable law. However, we have agreed with our pilots' union that we will not declare a cash dividend or repurchase our outstanding common stock for cash until we have contributed at least $500 million to the frozen defined benefit pension plan for pilots, measured from March 30, 2005.

In March 2005, we recorded a $43 million non-cash curtailment charge in accordance with SFAS No. 88, "Employer's Accounting for Settlements and Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for Termination Benefits," ("SFAS No. 88") in connection with freezing the portion of our defined benefit pension plan related to our pilots, using actuarial assumptions consistent with those we used at December 31, 2004. SFAS No. 88 requires curtailment accounting if an event eliminates, for a significant number of employees, the accrual of defined benefits for some or all of their future services. In the event of a curtailment, a loss must be recognized for the unrecognized prior service cost associated with years of service no longer expected to be rendered.

On January 6, 2005, we contributed 6.0 million shares of Holdings common stock valued at $65 million to our defined benefit pension plan. On April 7, 2005, we contributed an additional 6.1 million shares of Holdings common stock valued at $65 million to our defined benefit pension plan. On June 13, 2005, we contributed $50 million cash to our defined benefit pension plan. On July 8, 2005, we contributed $40 million cash to the pilots' new frozen defined benefit pension plan. Including these contributions totaling $220 million, we currently expect to contribute a total of approximately $304 million in 2005 to our defined benefit pension plan and the pilots' frozen defined benefit plan to meet each plan's minimum funding obligation, after taking into consideration the changes discussed above.

Defined Contribution Plans for Pilots. The agreement with our pilots provides for a new defined contribution retirement plan to be established effective September 1, 2005. That plan will be a money purchase pension plan that is also subject to minimum contribution rules under the Internal Revenue Code. Contributions under the new defined contribution plan will generally be specified percentages of applicable pilot compensation, subject to applicable legal limits. The initial contribution to be made under this plan will include a make-up contribution that is based on eligible compensation since July 1, 2005. Further, the agreement provides that the pilots' accounts under the 401(k) plan, which covers substantially all of our employees, will be spun off effective September 1, 2005 to a separate 401(k) plan for pilots. In accordance with the agreement, employer contributions will be made to the pilots' 401(k) plan, including potential additional contributions which will depend on our pre-tax pr ofits during a portion of the term of the pilots' agreement. To the extent contributions to either plan are limited by applicable law, the difference between the contractual amounts and the amounts permitted by law to be contributed to the defined contribution plans will be paid directly to pilots under a corresponding nonqualified arrangement.

Retiree Medical Benefits. Effective April 1, 2005, we made changes to certain retiree medical programs made available to eligible retirees. Previously, we offered these benefits on a workgroup-by-workgroup basis and had the periodic option of discontinuing the benefits. Generally, these benefits allow eligible retired employees to receive medical benefits that "bridge" their medical coverage from their date of retirement until attainment of Medicare eligibility, subject to applicable limits and conditions. Retirees are required to pay a portion of the costs of their retiree medical benefits to the extent they do not have sufficient accumulated unused sick time at the time of their retirement. Plan benefits are subject to co-payments, deductibles and other limits as described in the plans. We account for the retiree medical benefits plan under SFAS No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits other than Pensions," which requires recognition of the expected cost of benefits o ver the employee's service period. Following an amendment to the plan effective April 1, 2005, the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation under this plan was $240 million and our unrecognized prior service cost was also $240 million. The prior service cost will be recognized as expense over the remaining service period of currently active employees who will receive this benefit. The accumulated postretirement benefit obligation was calculated using a 5.75% discount rate and an assumed health care cost trend rate of 10% in 2005, declining to 5% in 2010 and thereafter. We recognized expense of $11 million related to this plan in the three months ended June 30, 2005. A 1% increase in the assumed health care cost trend rate would increase the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation as of April 1, 2005 by approximately $23 million and our run-rate annual expense by approximately $3 million. A 1% decrease in the assumed health care cost trend rate would decrease the accumulated postretirement be nefit obligation at April 1, 2005 by approximately $20 million and our run-rate annual expense by approximately $3 million.

Profit Sharing Plan. In January 2005, we announced that in connection with the pay and benefit reductions, we would be implementing an enhanced profit sharing program. The new program, which became effective April 1, 2005 and will be in place through 2009, creates an award pool of 30% of the first $250 million of pre-tax net income (as defined in the plan), 25% of the next $250 million and 20% of amounts over $500 million, subject to certain adjustments. Half of the profit-sharing pool will be allocated based on the relative share of the recently-agreed upon pay and benefit reductions accepted by most of our employee work groups and the other half will be allocated based on the relative wages of those work groups. Substantially all Continental employees will participate in the plan other than flight attendants, employees who participate in our management or officer bonus programs and certain non-U.S. employees. We currently anticipate that flight attendants will participate in this plan if we reach an agreement with their union and it is ratified by the members.

401(k) Plan. Our defined contribution 401(k) employee savings plans cover substantially all employees. Company matching contributions were terminated effective April 1, 2005 for substantially all employees other than flight attendants, mechanics, employees of CMI and pilots. Company matching contributions for pilots and CMI employees not subject to collective bargaining agreements ceased effective May 31, 2005 and June 1, 2005, respectively.

NOTE 7 - SPECIAL CHARGES

In the first quarter of 2005, we recorded a $43 million non-cash curtailment charge relating to the freezing of the portion of our defined benefit pension plan attributable to pilots, as discussed in Note 6.

In the second quarter of 2004, we recorded a special charge of $30 million associated with future obligations for rent and return conditions related to six leased MD-80 aircraft that were permanently grounded during the quarter.

In the first quarter of 2004, we recorded special charges of $55 million. Included in this charge were $19 million associated with future obligations for rent and return conditions related to three MD-80 aircraft that were permanently grounded during the quarter and a non-cash charge of $34 million related to the termination of a 1993 service agreement with United Micronesia Development Association.

Activity related to the accruals for future lease payments and closure/under-utilization of facilities for the six months ended June 30, 2005 is as follows (in millions):

	Beginning Balance	Accrual	Payments	Other	Ending Balance

Allowance for future lease payments and return conditions	$116	- -	(29)	(6)	$81
Closure/under-utilization of facilities	14	-	(2)	-	12

NOTE 8 - INVESTMENT IN EXPRESSJET AND REGIONAL CAPACITY PURCHASE AGREEMENT

Investment in ExpressJet. As the result of a series of transactions described in Note 15 to the financial statements included in our 2004 Form 10-K/A, we account for our interest in Holdings, the parent company of ExpressJet, using the equity method of accounting set forth in APB Opinion No. 18, "The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock." Under our capacity purchase agreement with Holdings and ExpressJet, we purchase all of ExpressJet's capacity and are responsible for selling all of the seat inventory. As a result, we record the related passenger revenue and related expenses, with payments under the capacity purchase agreement reflected as a separate operating expense. Using equity accounting, we record our proportionate share of Holdings' net income in "income from affiliates" in our consolidated statement of operations.

On January 6, 2005, we contributed 6.0 million shares of Holdings common stock to our defined benefit pension plan, reducing our ownership in Holdings to 10.7 million shares, which represented a 19.7% interest in Holdings. We recognized a gain of $51 million in the first quarter of 2005 related to this transaction. On April 7, 2005, we contributed an additional 6.1 million shares of Holdings common stock to our defined benefit pension plan, further reducing our ownership to 4.7 million shares, or an 8.5% interest in Holdings. These 4.7 million shares had a market value of $40 million at June 30, 2005. We recognized a gain of $47 million in the second quarter of 2005 related to the April 2005 transaction. We will continue to account for our interest in Holdings using the equity method of accounting because of our ongoing ability to influence Holdings' operations significantly through our capacity purchase agreement and our continued representation on Holdings' Board of Directors, although our boar d representation has been reduced to one member. We do not currently intend to remain a stockholder of Holdings over the long term. Subject to market conditions, we intend to sell or otherwise dispose of all of our shares of Holdings common stock in the future.

In addition to the Holdings shares we own, our defined benefit pension plan held 8.4 million shares of Holdings common stock at June 30, 2005. These shares represented a 15.4% interest in Holdings. The independent fiduciary that manages the Holdings shares in our defined benefit pension plan sold 3.7 million shares to third parties during the six months ended June 30, 2005. The combined interest in Holdings of our direct ownership and our pension plan at June 30, 2005 was 13.1 million shares, or 23.9% of Holdings' outstanding shares.

Capacity Purchase Agreement. Our capacity purchase agreement with Holdings and ExpressJet provides that we purchase in advance all of ExpressJet's available seat miles for a negotiated price, and we are at risk for reselling the available seat miles at market prices. Payments made under our capacity purchase agreement are reported as ExpressJet capacity purchase, net. ExpressJet capacity purchase, net includes all of ExpressJet's fuel expense plus a margin on ExpressJet's fuel expense up to a cap provided in the capacity purchase agreement and a related fuel purchase agreement (which margin only applies to the first 71.2 cents per gallon, including fuel taxes) and is net of our rental income on aircraft we lease to ExpressJet. Such capacity purchase, net payments totaled $382 million and $735 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and $328 million and $645 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively.

Tax Sharing Agreement. We recognized nonoperating income related to our tax sharing agreement with Holdings of $7 million and $14 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively, and $12 million and $24 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively.

NOTE 9 - SEGMENT REPORTING

We have two reportable segments: mainline and regional. We evaluate segment performance based on several factors, of which the primary financial measure is operating income (loss). However, we do not manage our business or allocate resources based on segment operating profit or loss because (1) our flight schedules are designed to maximize the passengers flying on both segments, (2) many operations of the two segments are substantially integrated (for example, airport operations, sales and marketing, scheduling and ticketing), and (3) management decisions are based on their anticipated impact on the overall network, not on one individual segment.

Financial information for the three and six months ended June 30 by business segment is set forth below (in millions):

		Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,
		2005	2004	2005	2004

Operating Revenue:
	Mainline	$2,384	$2,139	$4,505	$4,092
	Regional	473	414	857	768
	Total Consolidated	$2,857	$2,553	$5,362	$4,860

Operating Income (Loss):
	Mainline	$ 157	$ 68	$ 75	$ 2
	Regional	(38)	(28)	(129)	(99)
	Total Consolidated	$ 119	$ 40	$ (54)	$ (97)

Net Income (Loss):
	Mainline	$ 140	$ (14)	$ 43	$ (128)
	Regional	(40)	(14)	(129)	(55)
	Total Consolidated	$ 100	$ (28)	$ (86)	$ (183)

The amounts presented above are presented on the basis of how our management reviews segment results. Under this basis, the regional segment's revenue includes a pro-rated share of our ticket revenue for segments flown by Holdings, and expenses include all activity related to the regional operations.

NOTE 10 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Purchase Commitments. See Note 2 for a discussion of our aircraft purchase commitments.

Financings and Guarantees. We are the guarantor of approximately $1.7 billion in aggregate principal amount of tax-exempt special facilities revenue bonds and interest thereon, excluding the US Airways contingent liability described below. These bonds, issued by various airport municipalities, are payable solely from our rentals paid under long-term agreements with the respective governing bodies. The leasing arrangements associated with approximately $1.5 billion of these obligations are accounted for as operating leases, and the leasing arrangements associated with approximately $200 million of these obligations are accounted for as capital leases in our financial statements.

We are contingently liable for US Airways' obligations under a lease agreement between US Airways and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey related to the East End Terminal at LaGuardia airport. These obligations include the payment of ground rentals to the Port Authority and the payment of other rentals in respect of the full amounts owed on special facilities revenue bonds issued by the Port Authority having an outstanding par amount of $166 million at June 30, 2005 and having a final scheduled maturity in 2015. If US Airways defaults on these obligations, we would be obligated to cure the default, and the applicable documents provide that we would have the right to occupy the terminal after US Airways' interest in the lease had been terminated. In September 2004, US Airways filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. As of July 15, 2005, US Airways has made no election to assume or reject the lease agreement in its bankruptcy case.

We also have letters of credit and performance bonds at June 30, 2005 in the amount of $56 million with expiration dates through June 2008.

General Guarantees and Indemnifications. We are the lessee under many real estate leases. It is common in such commercial lease transactions for us to agree to indemnify the lessor and other related third parties for tort liabilities that arise out of or relate to our use or occupancy of the leased premises. In some cases, this indemnity extends to related liabilities arising from the negligence of the indemnified parties, but usually excludes any liabilities caused by their gross negligence or willful misconduct. Additionally, we typically indemnify such parties for any environmental liability that arises out of or relates to our use of the leased premises.

In our aircraft financing agreements, we typically indemnify the financing parties, trustees acting on their behalf and other related parties against liabilities that arise from the manufacture, design, ownership, financing, use, operation and maintenance of the aircraft and for tort liability, whether or not these liabilities arise out of or relate to the negligence of these indemnified parties, except for their gross negligence or willful misconduct and other customary exclusions.

We expect that we would be covered by insurance (subject to deductibles) for most tort liabilities and related indemnities described above with respect to real estate we lease and aircraft we operate.

In our financing transactions that include loans from banks in which the interest rate is based on LIBOR, we typically agree to reimburse the lenders for certain increased costs that they incur in carrying these loans as a result of any change in law and for any reduced returns with respect to these loans due to any change in capital requirements, subject in most cases to certain mitigation obligations of the lenders. We had $1.7 billion of floating rate debt at June 30, 2005. In several financing transactions, with an aggregate carrying value of $1.4 billion, involving loans from non-U.S. banks, export-import banks and certain other lenders secured by aircraft, we bear the risk of any change in tax laws that would subject loan payments thereunder to non-U.S. lenders to withholding taxes, subject to customary exclusions. In addition, in cross-border aircraft lease agreements for two 757 aircraft, we bear the risk of any change in U.S. tax laws that would subject lease payments made by us to a resid ent of Japan to U.S. taxes, subject to customary exclusions. Our lease obligations for these two aircraft totaled $54 million at June 30, 2005.

We cannot estimate the potential amount of future payments under the foregoing indemnities and agreements.

Credit Card Processing Agreement. Our bank-issued credit card processing agreement contains certain financial covenants which require, among other things, that we maintain a minimum EBITDAR (generally, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and aircraft rentals, adjusted for special charges) to fixed charges (generally, interest and aircraft rentals) ratio of 0.9 to 1.0 through June 30, 2006 and 1.1 to 1.0 thereafter. The liquidity covenant requires us to maintain a minimum level of $1.0 billion of unrestricted cash and short-term investments. The agreement also requires that we must maintain a debt rating of at least Caa3 as rated by Moody's or CCC- as rated by Standard & Poor's. We are currently in compliance with all of the covenants. Failure to maintain compliance would result in our being required to post up to an additional $370 million of cash collateral, which would adversely affect our liquidity. Depending on our unrestricted cash balance at the time, t he posting of a significant amount of cash collateral could cause our unrestricted cash balance to fall below the $1.0 billion minimum balance requirement under our $350 million secured loan facility, resulting in a default under such facility.

Secured Loan Facility. See Note 3 for a discussion of the secured loan facility we closed in June 2005.

Employees. On February 28, 2005, we announced that we had reached tentative agreements on new contracts covering our pilots, flight attendants, mechanics, dispatchers and simulator engineers following negotiations with the Air Line Pilots Association International ("ALPA"), the IAM, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters ("Teamsters") and the Transport Workers Union ("TWU") (representing both dispatchers and simulator engineers). Each of these agreements was ratified on March 30, 2005 by the members of the covered work groups with the exception of the agreement with our flight attendants, which was not ratified. The unions with ratified agreements chose to go forward and implement their contracts despite the fact that the flight attendants did not ratify their agreement. As each of the new collective bargaining agreements is for a 45-month term, all of these agreements will become amendable on December 31, 2008.

As discussed in the introductory paragraphs to these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, on July 6, 2005, the National Mediation Board appointed a federal mediator to assist us in reaching an agreement for pay and benefits reductions with our flight attendants, who are represented by the IAM.

Environmental Matters. We could be responsible for environmental remediation costs primarily related to jet fuel and solvent contamination surrounding our aircraft maintenance hangar in Los Angeles. In 2001, the California Regional Water Quality Control Board ("CRWQCB") mandated a field study of the site, which was completed in September 2001. In April 2005, under the threat of a CRWQCB enforcement action, we began environmental remediation of jet fuel contamination surrounding our aircraft maintenance hangar pursuant to a work plan submitted to (and approved by) the CRWQCB and our landlord, the Los Angeles World Airports.

We have established a reserve for estimated costs of environmental remediation at Los Angeles and elsewhere in our system, based primarily on third party environmental studies and estimates as to the extent of the contamination and nature of the required remedial actions. We expect our total losses from all environmental matters to be $49 million, for which we were fully accrued at June 30, 2005. We have evaluated and recorded this accrual for environmental remediation costs separately from any related insurance recovery. We have not recognized any material receivables related to insurance recoveries at June 30, 2005.

Based on currently available information, we believe that our reserves for potential environmental remediation costs are adequate, although reserves could be adjusted as further information develops or circumstances change. However, we do not expect these items to materially effect our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.

IRS Examinations. The Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") is in the process of examining our income tax returns for years through 2001 and has indicated that it may disallow certain deductions we claimed. We believe the ultimate resolution of these audits will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.

Legal Proceedings. During the period between 1997 and 2001, we reduced or capped the base commissions that we paid to travel agents, and in 2002 we eliminated the base commissions. This was similar to actions also taken by other air carriers. We are now a defendant, along with several other air carriers, in a number of lawsuits brought by travel agencies relating to these base commission reductions and eliminations.

Several travel agents who purportedly opted out of a prior class action entitled Sarah Futch Hall d/b/a/ Travel Specialists v. United Air Lines, et al. (U.S.D.C., Eastern District of North Carolina), in which the defendant airlines prevailed on summary judgment that was upheld on appeal, filed similar suits against Continental and other major carriers alleging violations of antitrust laws in reducing and ultimately eliminating the base commission formerly paid to travel agents. These pending cases are Tam Travel, Inc. v. Delta Air Lines, Inc., et al. (U.S.D.C., Northern District of California), filed on April 9, 2003; Paula Fausky, et al. v. American Airlines, et al. (U.S.D.C., Northern District of Ohio), filed on May 8, 2003; and Swope Travel Agency, et al. v. Orbitz LLC et al. (U.S.D.C., Eastern District of Texas), filed on June 5, 2003. These actions were transferred and consolidated for pretrial purposes in 2003 by the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation to the Northern District of Ohio. Discovery has recently commenced.

In each of the foregoing cases, we believe the plaintiffs' claims are without merit and are vigorously defending the lawsuits. Nevertheless, a final adverse court decision awarding substantial money damages could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.

We and/or certain of our subsidiaries are defendants in various other lawsuits, including one suit relating to certain environmental claims, and proceedings arising in the normal course of business. While the outcome of these lawsuits and proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty and could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, liquidity or results of operations, it is our opinion, after consulting with outside counsel, that the ultimate disposition of such suits will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, liquidity or results of operations.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.

The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that are not limited to historical facts, but reflect our current beliefs, expectations or intentions regarding future events. In connection therewith, please see the risk factors set forth in our 2004 Form 10-K/A, which identify important factors such as the consequences of our significant financial losses and high leverage, terrorist attacks, domestic and international economic conditions, the significant cost of aircraft fuel, labor costs, competition and industry conditions including the demand for air travel, the airline pricing environment and industry capacity decisions, regulatory matters and the seasonal nature of the airline business (the second and third quarters are generally stronger than the first and fourth quarters). In addition to the foregoing risks, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain the needed pay and benefit reductions from our flight attendants and CMI employees or that the ratified agree ments and the pay and benefit reductions and work rule changes from other work groups will enable the company to achieve the cost reductions expected, which will depend, upon other matters, on timely and effective implementation of new work rules, actual productivity improvement, employee attrition, technology implementation, our level of business activity, relations with employees generally and the ultimate accuracy of certain assumptions on which our cost savings are based. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that may arise after the date of this report.

General information about us can be found at http://www.continental.com/company/ investor. Our annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K, as well as any amendments to those reports, are available free of charge through our website as soon as reasonably practicable after we file them with, or furnish them to, the Securities and Exchange Commission.

OVERVIEW

We have had substantial losses since September 11, 2001, the magnitude of which is not sustainable. We have attempted to return to profitability by implementing the majority of $1.1 billion of annual cost-cutting and revenue-generating measures since 2002, and we have also made significant progress toward our goal of achieving an additional annual $500 million reduction in pay and benefits costs. We finalized changes to wages, work rules and benefits for all employees except our flight attendants and certain employees of our wholly-owned subsidiary CMI who are subject to collective bargaining agreements. We began implementing these changes in early April 2005, which, when fully implemented, are expected to result in approximately $418 million of annual pay and benefits cost savings on a run-rate basis.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion provides an analysis of our results of operations and reasons for material changes therein for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 as compared to the corresponding periods ended June 30, 2004.

Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 2005 to Three Months Ended June 30, 2004

Consolidated Results of Operations

We recorded consolidated net income of $100 million for the second quarter of 2005 as compared to a consolidated net loss of $28 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004. We consider the key measure of our performance to be operating income, which was $119 million for the second quarter of 2005, as compared to $40 million for the second quarter of 2004. Significant components of our consolidated operating results are as follows (in millions, except percentage changes):

Operating Revenue. Passenger revenue increased due to increased traffic and fares on international flights and more regional flying. Consolidated revenue passenger miles for the quarter increased 8.3% year-over-year on a capacity increase of 5.5%, which produced a consolidated load factor for the second quarter of 2005 of 79.6%, up 2.0 points over the same period in 2004. Consolidated yield increased 3.2% year-over-year. Consolidated passenger revenue per available seat mile ("RASM") for the quarter increased 6.0% year-over-year due to higher load factors and yields. The improved RASM reflects recent domestic fare increases and our efforts to manage the revenue associated with the emerging trend of customers booking closer to flight dates, an improved mix of local versus flow traffic and our elimination of certain discount fares.

The table below shows passenger revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 and period to period comparisons for passenger revenue, RASM and available seat miles ("ASMs") by geographic region for our mainline and regional operations:

	Passenger Revenue	Percentage Increase (Decrease) in Second Quarter 2005 vs Second Quarter 2004
	(in millions)	Passenger Revenue	RASM	ASMs

Domestic	$1,241	5.2%	5.4%	(0.2)%
Trans-Atlantic	453	25.7%	9.5%	14.9 %
Latin America	265	8.8%	8.6%	0.2 %
Pacific	178	21.0%	4.3%	16.0 %
Total Mainline	2,137	10.7%	6.3%	4.2 %

Regional	484	17.1%	0.7%	16.3 %

Total System	$2,621	11.8%	6.0%	5.5 %

Cargo, mail and other revenue increased 13.5% primarily due to increases in revenue associated with sales of mileage credits in our OnePass frequent flyer program and increases in freight fuel surcharges, partially offset by decreased military charter flights and lower freight and mail volumes.

Operating Expenses. Wages, salaries and related costs decreased 8.7% primarily due to wage concessions and a slight decrease in the average number of employees. Aircraft fuel and related taxes increased substantially due to a significant rise in fuel prices, combined with an increase in flight activity. The average jet fuel price per gallon including related taxes increased 47.3% from 113.35 cents in the second quarter of 2004 to 166.95 cents in the second quarter of 2005.

Payments made under our capacity purchase agreement are reported in ExpressJet capacity purchase, net. ExpressJet capacity purchase, net includes all of ExpressJet's fuel expense plus a margin on ExpressJet's fuel expense up to a cap provided in the capacity purchase agreement and a related fuel purchase agreement (which margin only applies to the first 71.2 cents per gallon, including fuel taxes) and is net of our rental income on aircraft we lease to ExpressJet. The net expense was higher in the second quarter of 2005 than in the corresponding quarter of 2004 due to increased flight activity at ExpressJet and increased fuel prices, offset in part by lower renegotiated rates effective January 1, 2005 under the capacity purchase agreement.

Landing fees and other rentals were higher due to fixed rent increases, mainly from the completion of Terminal E at Bush Intercontinental Airport in Houston. The lower depreciation and amortization in 2004 resulted from the permanent grounding of MD-80 aircraft in 2003 and 2004. Other operating expenses increased due to the higher number of international flights which resulted in increased air navigation, ground handling and related expenses.

In the second quarter of 2004, we recorded a special charge of $30 million associated with future obligations for rent and return conditions related to six leased MD-80 aircraft which were permanently grounded.

Nonoperating Income (Expense). Income from affiliates includes income related to our tax sharing agreement with Holdings and our equity in the earnings of Holdings and Copa Airlines. Income related to our tax sharing agreement with Holdings was $7 million in the second quarter of 2005 as compared to $12 million in the second quarter of 2004. We also recognized a gain of $47 million in the second quarter of 2005 related to the contribution of 6.1 million shares of Holdings common stock to our defined benefit pension plan.

Segment Results of Operations

We have two reportable segments: mainline and regional. The mainline segment consists of flights with jets that have a capacity of greater than 100 seats while the regional segment consists of flights with jets that have a capacity of 50 or fewer seats. The regional segment is operated by ExpressJet through a capacity purchase agreement. Under that agreement, we handle all of the scheduling and are responsible for setting prices and selling all of the seat inventory. In exchange for ExpressJet's operation of the flights, we pay ExpressJet for each scheduled block hour based on an agreed formula. Under the agreement, we recognize all passenger, cargo and other revenue associated with each flight, and are responsible for all revenue-related expenses, including commissions, reservations, catering and terminal rent at hub airports.

We evaluate segment performance based on several factors, of which the primary financial measure is operating income (loss). However, we do not manage our business or allocate resources based on segment operating profit or loss because (1) our flight schedules are designed to maximize the passengers flying on both segments, (2) many operations of the two segments are substantially integrated (for example, airport operations, sales and marketing, scheduling and ticketing), and (3) management decisions are based on their anticipated impact on the overall network, not on one individual segment.

Mainline. Significant components of our mainline segment's operating results are as follows (in millions, except percentage changes):

	Three Months Ended June 30,		Increase	% Increase
	2005	2004	(Decrease)	(Decrease)

Operating Revenue	$2,384	$2,139	$ 245	11.5 %

Operating Income	$ 157	$ 68	$ 89	130.9 %

The variances in specific line items for the mainline segment are due to the same factors discussed under consolidated results of operations.

Regional. Significant components of our regional segment's operating results are as follows (in millions, except percentage changes):

	Three Months Ended June 30,		Increase	% Increase
	2005	2004	(Decrease)	(Decrease)

Operating Revenue	$473	$414	$ 59	14.3 %

Operating Expenses:

Other	6	3	3	100.0 %
	511	442	69	15.6 %

Operating Loss	$(38)	$(28)	$ 10	35.7 %

The reported results of our regional segment do not reflect the total contribution of the regional segment to our system-wide operations. The regional segment generates additional revenues for the mainline segment as it feeds traffic between smaller cities and our mainline hubs.

The variances in specific line items for the regional segment are due to the same factors discussed under consolidated results of operations, with the exception of aircraft rentals. Regional aircraft rental expense increased due to the higher number of regional jets in ExpressJet's fleet. ExpressJet took delivery of 21 new regional jets during the year ended December 31, 2004 and 11 new regional jets during the first six months of 2005.

ExpressJet capacity purchase, net increased due to increased flight activity at ExpressJet, higher fuel costs and the higher number of regional jets leased from us by ExpressJet. The net amounts consist of the following (in millions, except percentage changes):

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2005	2004	Increase	% Increase

Capacity purchase expenses	$388	$371	$17	4.6%
Fuel and fuel taxes in excess of 71.2 cents per gallon cap	70	27	43	159.3%
Aircraft sublease income	(76)	(70)	6	8.6%
ExpressJet capacity purchase, net	$382	$328	$54	16.5%

Comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, 2005 to Six Months Ended June 30, 2004

Consolidated Results of Operations

We recorded a consolidated net loss of $86 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 as compared to a consolidated net loss of $183 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. We consider the key measure of our performance to be operating income (loss), which was a loss of $54 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005, as compared to a loss of $97 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Significant components of our consolidated operating results are as follows (in millions, except percentage changes):

Operating Revenue. Passenger revenue increased due to increased traffic and fares on international flights and more regional flying. Consolidated revenue passenger miles for 2005 increased 9.8% year-over-year on a capacity increase of 4.8%, which produced a consolidated load factor for the first half of 2005 of 78.3%, up 3.6 points over the same period in 2004. Consolidated yield increased 0.2% year-over-year. Consolidated RASM for the six months ended June 30, 2005 increased 5.0% year-over-year primarily due to higher load factors. The improved RASM also reflects recent domestic fare increases and our efforts to manage the revenue associated with the emerging trend of customers booking closer to flight dates, an improved mix of local versus flow traffic and our efforts to reduce discounting.

The table below shows passenger revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and period to period comparisons for passenger revenue, RASM and ASMs by geographic region for our mainline and regional operations:

	Passenger Revenue	Percentage Increase (Decrease) in June 30, 2005 YTD vs June 30, 2004 YTD
	(in millions)	Passenger Revenue	RASM	ASMs

Domestic	$2,339	2.7%	4.5 %	(1.8)%
Trans-Atlantic	764	26.9%	9.2 %	16.1 %
Latin America	553	10.5%	7.5 %	2.8 %
Pacific	354	19.0%	4.5 %	13.9 %
Total Mainline	4,010	9.0%	5.3 %	3.5 %

Regional	878	14.5%	(0.6)%	15.3 %

Total System	$4,888	10.0%	5.0 %	4.8 %

Cargo, mail and other revenue increased 13.9% primarily due to increases in revenue associated with sales of mileage credits in our OnePass frequent flyer program, partially offset by a reduction in freight and mail volumes and decreased military charter flights.

Operating Expenses. Wages, salaries and related costs decreased 2.5% primarily due to wage concessions, partially offset by a slight increase in the average number of employees. Aircraft fuel and related taxes increased substantially due to a significant rise in fuel prices, combined with an increase in flight activity. The average jet fuel price per gallon including related taxes increased 43.7% from 108.88 cents in the first half of 2004 to 156.46 cents in the first half of 2005.

Payments made under our capacity purchase agreement are reported in ExpressJet capacity purchase, net. ExpressJet capacity purchase, net includes all of ExpressJet's fuel expense plus a margin on ExpressJet's fuel expense up to a cap provided in the capacity purchase agreement and a related fuel purchase agreement (which margin only applies to the first 71.2 cents per gallon, including fuel taxes) and is net of our rental income on aircraft we lease to ExpressJet. The net expense was higher in the first half of 2005 than in the corresponding six months of 2004 due to increased flight activity at ExpressJet and increased fuel prices, offset in part by lower renegotiated rates effective January 1, 2005 under the capacity purchase agreement.

In March 2005, we recorded a $43 million non-cash curtailment charge relating to our agreement to freeze, effective May 31, 2005, the benefit accruals with respect to our pilots under our defined benefit pension plan. In the first six months of 2004, we recorded fleet impairment losses and other special charges of $85 million. Included in these charges were $49 million associated with future obligations for rent and return conditions related to nine leased MD-80 aircraft which were permanently grounded and a non-cash charge of $34 million related to the termination of a 1993 service agreement with United Micronesia Development Association.

Nonoperating Income (Expense). Income from affiliates includes income related to our tax sharing agreement with Holdings and our equity in the earnings of Holdings and Copa Airlines. Income related to our tax sharing agreement with Holdings was $14 million in the six months ended June 30, 2005 as compared to $24 million in the six months ended June 30, 2004. We also recognized gains of $98 million in the six months ended June 30, 2005 related to the contribution of 12.1 million shares of Holdings common stock to our defined benefit pension plan.

Income Tax Benefit (Expense). During the first quarter of 2004, due to our continued losses, we concluded that we were required to provide a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets because we had determined that it was more likely than not that such deferred tax assets would ultimately not be realized. As a result, our net losses for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and a portion of the six months ended June 30, 2004 were not reduced by any tax benefit. Our effective tax rate for the first six months of 2004 also differs from the federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to increases in the valuation allowance, certain expenses that are not deductible for federal income tax purposes and state income taxes.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of June 30, 2005, we had $2.3 billion in consolidated cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, which is $618 million higher than at December 31, 2004. At June 30, 2005, we had $241 million of restricted cash, which is primarily collateral for estimated future workers' compensation claims, credit card processing contracts, letters of credit and interest rate swap agreements. Restricted cash at December 31, 2004 totaled $211 million.

For a discussion of a number of factors that may impact our liquidity and the sufficiency of our capital resources, see "Overview" above.

Cash flows provided by operations for the six months ended June 30, 2005 were $530 million compared to cash flows provided by operations of $463 million in the comparable period of 2004. Cash flows from operations increased primarily due to advance ticket sales associated with increased international flight activity, partially offset by the contribution of $50 million cash to our defined benefit pension plan in June 2005.

Investing Activities. Cash flows used in investing activities were $10 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to cash flows provided by investing activities of $11 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. A significant component of cash provided by investing activities in the first six months of 2005 was our conversion of certain short-term auction rate certificates into short-term cash equivalents. The increase in purchase deposits paid in the first half of 2005 is due to the timing of aircraft deliveries. The delivery of the mainline aircraft in the first half of 2004 resulted in higher purchase deposit refunds as compared to the first half of 2005. We took delivery of 11 regional jets during the first six months of 2005, compared to 11 mainline aircraft (of which five were owned and six were leased) and 11 leased regional jets in the first six months of 2004.

We have substantial commitments for capital expenditures. Net capital expenditures for 2005 are expected to be $235 million, or $215 million when reduced by purchase deposits to be refunded, net of purchase deposits paid. Projected net capital expenditures for 2005 consist of $80 million of fleet expenditures, $120 million of non-fleet expenditures and $35 million for rotable parts and capitalized interest. Through June 30, 2005, our net capital expenditures totaled $78 million and net purchase deposits paid totaled $78 million.

Financing Activities. Cash flows provided by financing activities, primarily the issuance of new long-term debt offset by the payment of long-term debt and capital lease obligations, were $182 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005, compared to cash flows used in financing activities of $186 million in the six months ended June 30, 2004.

In June 2005, we and our two wholly owned subsidiaries, AMI and CMI, closed on a $350 million secured loan facility. AMI and CMI have unconditionally guaranteed the loan made to us, and we and AMI have unconditionally guaranteed the loan made to CMI.

The facility consists of two loans, both of which have a term of six years and are non-amortizing, except for certain mandatory prepayments described below. The loans accrue interest at a floating rate determined by reference to the three-month London Interbank Offered Rate, known as LIBOR, plus 5.375% per annum. The loans and guarantees are secured by certain of our U.S.-Asia routes and related assets, all of the outstanding common stock of AMI and CMI and substantially all of the other assets of AMI and CMI, including route authorities and related assets.

In March 2005, we extended our current agreement with Chase to jointly market credit cards. In addition to reaching an agreement on advertising and other marketing commitments, Chase agreed to increase the rate it pays for mileage credits under our frequent flyer program. In April 2005, Chase purchased $75 million of mileage credits under the program which will be redeemed for mileage purchases in 2007 and 2008 and recognized as revenue consistent with other mileage sales in 2007 and 2008. In consideration for the advance purchase of mileage credits, we have provided a security interest to Chase in certain transatlantic routes. The $75 million purchase of mileage credits has been treated as a loan from Chase and is reported as long-term debt in our balance sheet and will be reduced ratably in 2007 and 2008 as the mileage credits are redeemed. The new agreement extends through the end of 2009.

At June 30, 2005, we had approximately $6.0 billion (including current maturities) of long-term debt and capital lease obligations. We do not currently have any undrawn lines of credit or revolving credit facilities and substantially all of our otherwise readily financeable assets are encumbered. However, our interests in Holdings and Copa Airlines remain unencumbered. We were in compliance with all debt covenants at June 30, 2005.

At June 30, 2005, our senior unsecured debt ratings were Caa2 by Moody's and CCC+ by Standard & Poor's. Reductions in our credit ratings may increase the cost and reduce the availability of financing to us in the future. We do not have any debt obligations that would be accelerated as a result of a credit rating downgrade. However, we would have to post additional collateral of approximately $60 million under our new bank-issued credit card processing agreement if our debt rating falls below Caa3 as rated by Moody's or CCC- as rated by Standard & Poor's.

Our bank-issued credit card processing agreement also contains certain financial covenants which require, among other things, that we maintain a minimum EBITDAR (generally, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and rentals, adjusted for certain special charges) to fixed charges (generally, interest and aircraft rentals) ratio of 0.9 to 1.0 through June 30, 2006 and 1.1 to 1.0 thereafter. The liquidity covenant requires us to maintain a minimum level of $1.0 billion of unrestricted cash and short-term investments. We are currently in compliance with all of the covenants. Failure to maintain compliance would result in our being required to post up to an additional $370 million of cash collateral, which would adversely affect our liquidity. Depending on our unrestricted cash balance at the time, the posting of a significant amount of cash collateral could cause our unrestricted cash balance to fall below the $1.0 billion minimum balance requirement under our $350 million secured loan facility, resulting in a default under such facility.

Deferred Tax Assets. We have not paid federal income taxes in the last four years. As of December 31, 2004, we had a net deferred tax liability of $212 million including gross deferred tax assets aggregating $1.9 billion, $1.2 billion related to net operating losses ("NOLs"), and a valuation allowance of $404 million.

Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code ("Section 382") imposes limitations on a corporation's ability to utilize NOLs if it experiences an "ownership change." In general terms, an ownership change may result from transactions increasing the ownership of certain stockholders in the stock of a corporation by more than 50 percentage points over a three-year period. In the event of an ownership change, utilization of our NOLs would be subject to an annual limitation under Section 382 determined by multiplying the value of our stock at the time of the ownership change by the applicable long-term tax-exempt rate (which is 4.37% for June 2005). Any unused annual limitation may be carried over to later years. The amount of the limitation may, under certain circumstances, be increased by the built-in gains in assets held by us at the time of the change that are recognized in the five-year period after the change. If we were to have an ownership change under current conditions, our annual NOL utilizatio n could be limited to approximately $39 million per year, before consideration of any built-in gains.

The Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") is in the process of examining our income tax returns for years through 2001 and has indicated that it may disallow certain deductions we claimed. We believe the ultimate resolution of these audits will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.

Pension Plans. Under the new collective bargaining agreement that our pilots ratified on March 30, 2005, the benefit accruals with respect to the pilots under our defined benefit pension plan were frozen effective May 31, 2005, the assets and obligations related to pilots thereunder are being placed in a separate frozen defined benefit pension plan and we are obligated to establish and make contributions to a new defined contribution retirement program for pilots. All of the pilots' existing accrued benefits under our defined benefit plan at the date of the freeze have been preserved, including the right to receive a lump-sum payment upon retirement. Funding requirements under our pre-existing defined benefit pension plans (as well as the separate frozen defined benefit pension plan for pilots) will continue to be determined under applicable law. However, we have agreed with our pilots' union that we will not declare a cash dividend or repurchase our outstanding common stock for cash until we have contributed at least $500 million to the frozen defined benefit pension plan for pilots, measured from March 30, 2005.

The agreement with our pilots provides for a new defined contribution retirement plan to be established effective September 1, 2005. That plan will be a money purchase pension plan that is also subject to minimum contribution rules under the Internal Revenue Code. Contributions under the new defined contribution plan will generally be specified percentages of applicable pilot compensation, subject to applicable legal limits. The initial contribution to be made under this plan will include a make-up contribution that is based on eligible compensation since July 1, 2005. Further, the agreement provides that the pilots' accounts under the 401(k) plan, which covers substantially all of our employees, will be spun off effective September 1, 2005 to a separate 401(k) plan for pilots. In accordance with the agreement, employer contributions will be made to the pilots' 401(k) plan, including potential additional contributions which will depend on our pre-tax profits during a portion of the term of the pi lots' agreement. To the extent contributions to either plan are limited by applicable law, the difference between the contractual amounts and the amounts permitted by law to be contributed to the defined contribution plans will be paid directly to pilots under a corresponding nonqualified arrangement.

Liquidity and Credit Support Providers. We have utilized proceeds from the issuance of pass-through certificates to finance the acquisition of 252 leased and owned mainline jet aircraft currently in our fleet. Typically, these pass-through certificates, as well as a separate financing secured by aircraft spare parts and spare engines, contain liquidity facilities whereby a third party agrees to make payments sufficient to pay at least 18 months of interest on the applicable certificates if a payment default occurs. The liquidity providers for these certificates include the following: CALYON New York Branch, Landesbank Hessen-Thuringen Girozentrale, Morgan Stanley Capital Services, Westdeutsche Landesbank Girozentrale, AIG Matched Funding Corp., ABN AMRO Bank N.V., Credit Suisse First Boston, Caisse des Depots et Consignations, Bayerische Landesbank Girozentrale, ING Bank N.V. and De Nationale Investeringsbank N.V.

We are also the issuer of pass-through certificates secured by 101 leased regional jet aircraft. The liquidity providers for these certificates include the following: ABN AMRO Bank N.V., Chicago Branch, Citibank N.A., Citicorp North America, Inc., RZB Finance LLC and WestLB AG, New York Branch.

We currently utilize policy providers to provide credit support on four separate financings with an outstanding principal balance of $595 million at June 30, 2005. The policy providers have unconditionally guaranteed the payment of interest on the notes when due and the payment of principal on the notes no later than 24 months after the final scheduled payment date. Policy providers on these notes are MBIA Insurance Corporation (a subsidiary of MBIA, Inc.), Ambac Assurance Corporation (a subsidiary of Ambac Financial Group, Inc.), Financial Security Assurance, Inc. (a subsidiary of Financial Security Assurance Holdings Ltd.) and Financial Guaranty Insurance Company (a subsidiary of FGIC). Financial information for FGIC is available over the internet at http://www.fgic.com and financial information for the parent companies of our other policy providers is available over the internet at the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov or at the SEC's public reference room in Washington, D.C.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

There have been no material changes in market risk from the information provided in Item 7A. "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" in our 2004 Form 10-K/A except as follows:

Foreign Currency. We had the following foreign currency hedges outstanding at June 30, 2005 covering net cash flows for the remainder of 2005:

Forward contract to hedge approximately 60% of our projected Japanese yen-denominated net cash flows.
Forward and option contracts to hedge approximately 36% of our British pound-denominated net cash flows.
Forward and option contracts to hedge approximately 39% of our projected euro-denominated net cash flows.
Forward contracts to hedge approximately 32% of our projected Canadian dollar-denominated net cash flows.

We estimate that at June 30, 2005, a 10% strengthening in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to the Japanese yen, British pound, euro and Canadian dollar would have increased the fair value of the existing option and/or forward contracts by $13 million, $5 million, $3 million and $1 million, respectively, offset by a corresponding loss on the underlying exposure of $12 million, $12 million, $5 million and $3 million, respectively, resulting in a net increase (decrease) in revenue of $1 million, $(7) million, $(2) million and $(2) million, respectively.

Aircraft Fuel. As of June 30, 2005, we did not have any jet fuel hedges in place.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Restatement of Previous Filings

In mid-July 2005, we identified adjustments that were required to be recorded in prior periods relating to the way we accounted for (1) rent expense under operating leases for certain airport properties with fixed rent escalation clauses and (2) depreciation expense for leasehold improvements with respect to certain airport locations and other facilities. Descriptions of these adjustments follow:

- Rent Expense. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13, "Accounting for Leases," ("SFAS 13") as clarified by Financial Accounting Standards Board Technical Bulletin No. 85-3, "Accounting for Operating Leases with Scheduled Rent Increases," provides that rent expense under operating leases with fixed rent escalation clauses and lease incentives should be recognized evenly, on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Historically, we have accounted for all of our airport ground leases on an as-incurred basis. Based on an extensive review of our leases, we determined that some of our airport ground leases had fixed rent escalation clauses and that we were not recognizing rent expense appropriately. The adjustments recognized such rent expense on a straight-line basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The aggregate lease expense adjustment was $82 million and covers the period from 1993 through March 31 , 2005. The lease expense adjustment ranged from $3 million to $12 million per year.

- Depreciation Expense for Leasehold Improvements. The Office of the Chief Accountant of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") recently issued interpretive guidance clarifying its position that leasehold improvements in an operating lease should be depreciated by the lessee over the shorter of their economic lives or the remaining lease term, as defined in SFAS 13. Leasehold improvements for us are primarily at airport locations (e.g., capitalized construction costs of the ticketing area, gate area, airport lounges, etc.) or other leased facilities (i.e., office space, kitchens, maintenance and reservations). In practice, we had depreciated leasehold improvements over the useful life of the improvement when the lease term was less than 10 years. We followed this accounting practice due to our expectation that the lease would be renewed for at least the period over which the leasehold improvements were being depreciated. However, based on the recent interpretative guidance from the SEC staff, we have restated our financial statements to depreciate our leasehold improvements over the shorter of their economic lives or the remaining term of the lease. The aggregate depreciation expense adjustment was $31 million and covers the period from 1993 through March 31, 2005. The adjustment ranged from $1 million to $6 million per year.

After management's initial review of our lease agreements and our historical accounting, on July 14, 2005, management recommended to the Audit Committee that, upon completion of our analysis of the impact of the items described above, our previously filed financial statements be restated to reflect the correction of these items. The Audit Committee agreed with this recommendation. On July 19, 2005, upon completion of our analysis, the Audit Committee approved our restated financial statements that were included in Amendment No. 1 to each of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 and Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2005, each of which was filed with the SEC on July 20, 2005.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

In connection with the restatement, we reevaluated our disclosure controls and procedures. We concluded that our failure to correctly apply SFAS 13, and its related interpretations, with respect to the recognition of rent expense on operating leases with fixed rent escalation clauses and depreciation expense for leasehold improvements constituted a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. Solely as a result of this material weakness, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2005.

Remediation of Material Weakness in Internal Control

We have performed an extensive review of our leases and our leasehold improvements in an effort to ensure that the restated financial statements reflect all necessary adjustments. We have also designed new internal control procedures to help remediate the issues and to ensure that new leases and changes to existing leases, as well as future leasehold improvements, will be accounted for in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, including the following:

We have designed a new checklist to facilitate the identification of terms in all new lease agreements and amendments to existing lease agreements that require additional analysis or accounting; and

We have developed plans to improve training, education and accounting reviews designed to ensure that all relevant personnel involved in leasing transactions understand and apply applicable accounting guidance in compliance with generally accepted accounting principles.

We believe we have taken the steps necessary to remediate this material weakness relating to our lease accounting processes, procedures and controls; however, we cannot confirm the effectiveness of our enhanced internal controls with respect to our lease accounting until we and our independent auditors have conducted sufficient testing. Accordingly, we will continue to monitor vigorously the effectiveness of these processes, procedures and controls and will make any further changes management determines appropriate.

Changes in Internal Controls. Other than as noted above in this Item 4, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) identified in connection with the evaluation of our internal controls performed during the second quarter 2005 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

During the period between 1997 and 2001, we reduced or capped the base commissions that we paid to travel agents, and in 2002 we eliminated the base commissions. This was similar to actions also taken by other air carriers. We are now a defendant, along with several other air carriers, in a number of lawsuits brought by travel agencies relating to these base commission reductions and eliminations.

Several travel agents who purportedly opted out of a prior class action entitled Sarah Futch Hall d/b/a/ Travel Specialists v. United Air Lines, et al. (U.S.D.C., Eastern District of North Carolina), in which the defendant airlines prevailed on summary judgment that was upheld on appeal, filed similar suits against Continental and other major carriers alleging violations of antitrust laws in reducing and ultimately eliminating the base commission formerly paid to travel agents. These pending cases are Tam Travel, Inc. v. Delta Air Lines, Inc., et al. (U.S.D.C., Northern District of California), filed on April 9, 2003; Paula Fausky, et al. v. American Airlines, et al. (U.S.D.C., Northern District of Ohio), filed on May 8, 2003; and Swope Travel Agency, et al. v. Orbitz LLC et al. (U.S.D.C., Eastern District of Texas), filed on June 5, 2003. By order dated November 10, 2003, these actions were transferred and consolidated for pretrial purposes by the Judicial Panel on Mult idistrict Litigation to the Northern District of Ohio. Discovery has recently commenced.

TWENTY-FIRST SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT ("Supplemental Agreement" or "Supplement No. 21"), made as of June 1, 2003 by and between THE PORT AUTHORITY OF NEW YORK AND NEW JERSEY (hereinafter refereed to as "the Port Authority") and CONTINENTAL AIRLINES, INC., a corporation of the State of Delaware, (hereinafter referred to as "the Lessee"),

The Lessee hereby specifically acknowledges that neither the survival of the obligation with respect to any such deficiency or refund nor any other provision of this Supplemental Agreement shall grant or shall be deemed to grant any rights whatsoever to the Lessee to have the term of the letting of Area C-3 under the Lease, or any portion of the premises thereunder, extended for any period beyond March 31, 2028 or affect in any way the Port Authority's right to terminate the Lease, or any portion of the premises thereunder, as provided therein.

Upon any termination of letting hereunder (even if stated to have the same effect as expiration), the Lessee shall within twenty (20) days after the effective date of such termination, make a payment of the Area C-3 rental computed as follows: if the letting hereunder is terminated effective on a date other than the last day of a month the rental for the portion of that month in which the letting remains effective shall be the amount of the monthly installment of rental prorated on a daily basis, and if the monthly installment of rental prorated on a daily basis, and if the monthly installment due on the first day of that month has not been paid the Lessee shall pay the prorated part of the amount of that installment; if the monthly installment has been paid, then the excess thereof shall be credited to the Lessee's obligations.
Nothing contained in the foregoing shall affect the survival obligations of the Lessee as set forth in Section 27 thereof.
For purposes of subparagraph (f) above with respect to any deficiency or refund, any termination of the Lease, other than a termination under Section 24 hereof, shall be deemed to have the same effect as the expiration thereof."

If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest, fees and other amounts then due by the Credit Parties hereunder or under any Operative Document, such funds shall be applied, first, towards payment in full of all amounts due and payable by the Credit Parties to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Operative Documents (including, without limitation, Section 9.05), and second, towards payment of interest, fees and other amounts then due by the Credit Parties hereunder or under any Operative Document, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest, fees and other amounts then due by the Credit Parties to such parties.

Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (i) each payment or prepayment of principal of Tranche A-1 Term Loans and Tranche A-2 Term Loans shall be made for account of the relevant Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Loans of such Class held by them and (ii) each payment of interest on Tranche A-1 Term Loans and Tranche A-2 Term Loans shall be made for account of the relevant Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Loans then due and payable to the respective Lenders.

Sharing of Set-Offs.

If any Lender shall obtain any payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan of any Class or payment of any other amount under this Agreement or any other Operative Document through the exercise of any right of set off, banker's lien or counterclaim or similar right or otherwise (other than from the Administrative Agent as provided herein), and, as a result of such payment, such Lender shall have received a greater percentage of the principal of or interest on the Loans of such Class (the "Applicable Loans") or such other amounts in each case then due hereunder or thereunder to such Lender than the percentage received by any other Lender of the principal of or interest on the Applicable Loans or such other amounts in each case then due hereunder or thereunder to such other Lender, it shall promptly purchase from such other Lenders participations in (or, if and to the extent specified by such Lender, direct interests in) the Applicable Loans or such other amounts, respectiv ely, owing to such other Lenders (or in interest due thereon, as the case may be) in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all the Lenders shall share the benefit of such excess payment (net of any expenses that may be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or preserving such excess payment) pro rata in accordance with the unpaid principal of and/or interest on the Applicable Loans or such other amounts, respectively, owing to each of the Lenders; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by a Credit Party pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of an Operative Document or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Applicable Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to a Credit Party or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). To such end all the Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored. Each Credit Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against a Credit Party rights of set off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Credit Party in the amount of such participation.

Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.08(b), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender's obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied Obligations are fully paid.

Prepayment of Loans.

Optional. The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay the principal amount of the Tranche A-1 Term Loans and the Tranche A-2 Term Loans, in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with clause (c) of this Section, together with accrued interest thereon, premium if required under Section 2.09(d), Break Funding Costs, if any, and any other amount due hereunder and under the other Operative Documents with respect to such Loan, on any Business Day; provided that (x) any such prepayment in part shall be of a principal amount not less than $10,000,000 when combined with the principal amount of any Tranche A-1 Term Loan or Tranche A-2 Term Loan prepaid simultaneously and (y) any prepayments shall be made and applied pro rata to the Tranche A-1 Term Loans and the Tranche A-2 Term Loans.

In addition, AMI or CMI (or any of their respective Subsidiaries) shall deposit in the CMI Account any Proposed Reinvestment Proceeds which have not been applied to the costs of repairing, restoring or replacing the applicable assets, within 180 days of receipt thereof, but which such Person intends to apply to such uses with 360 days of such receipt pending the application of such amounts within such 360 day period. Any Proposed Reinvestment Proceeds deposited in the CMI Account and not so applied within such 360 day period shall be transferred from the CMI Account and applied by the Administrative Agent to prepay the Loans.

Notwithstanding the foregoing subparagraphs (A) and (B), the Loans shall be prepaid in the amount of principal (rounded down to the nearest $1,000,000) as nearly equal as possible to any Net Cash Proceeds, plus accrued interest on the amount prepaid, from the sale of any Route that is not Major Collateral, no later than the fifth Business Day following the date of receipt of any such Net Cash Proceeds.

Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of the Loans to be prepaid. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to the Loans, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof.

Premium. Except as provided above in clause (b) of this Section 2.09 and in Sections 5.11 and 7.01 and any other Section hereof allowing prepayment without premium or penalty, the Borrowers shall, upon prepayment of all or any part of the Loans, pay a premium as follows: if such prepayment is made prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, a premium of 2.00% of the aggregate principal amount prepaid; and if such prepayment is made on or after such first anniversary and prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date, a premium of 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount prepaid. No premium shall be payable for a prepayment made as a Remedial Action.

Fees.

The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in the Engagement Letter.

Interest.

The Loans shall bear interest during each Interest Period at the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period, plus, the Applicable Margin.

Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date; provided that in the event of any prepayment of any Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount prepaid shall be payable on the date of such prepayment.

All interest shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring during the period for which such interest is payable over a year comprised of 360 days (or, in the case of interest on Loans made pursuant to Section 2.14, 365 days or, if appropriate, 366 days). The LIBO Rate for each Interest Period shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Additional Costs.

If any change in law or governmental rule, regulation or order, or in the interpretation, administration or application thereof (including the adoption of any new law or governmental rule, regulation or order), or any determination of a court or by any central bank or Governmental Authority, in each case that becomes effective after the date hereof, or compliance by a Lender (at its applicable lending office) with any guideline, request or directive issued or made after the date hereof by any such central bank or Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, such Lender (other than any such reserve or other requirements with respect to LIBO Rate Loans that ar e reflected in the definition of LIBO Rate), and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make, making or maintaining its Loans hereunder or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending office) with respect thereto (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called "Additional Costs"), then, in any such case, Continental shall pay to such Lender, promptly after receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender shall reasonably determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender for any such Additional Costs. Such Lender shall deliver to Continental (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender or under thi s Section 2.12(a), which statement shall be prima facie evidence of such additional amounts.

If the adoption after the date hereof of any applicable law, rule or regulation (or any provision thereof) regarding capital adequacy, or any change after the date hereof in any existing interpretation or administration thereof by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or the promulgation after the date hereof of any guidelines, request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of a Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a direct consequence of such Lender's Loans held by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender could have achieved but for such adoption , change or promulgation (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such controlling corporation with regard to capital adequacy), then from time to time, promptly after receipt by Continental from such Lender of the statement referred to in the next sentence, Continental shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such controlling corporation on an after-tax basis for such reduction. Such Lender shall deliver to Continental (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of the calculation of such additional amounts, which statement shall be prima facie evidence of such additional amounts.

Any affected Lender shall notify Continental of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement entitling such Lender to compensation under Section 2.12(a) or (b), as the case may be, as promptly as practicable, but in any event within 90 days, after such Lender obtains actual knowledge thereof; provided that if such Lender fails to give such notice within 90 days after the occurrence of the event that gives rise to such right to compensation, such Lender shall, with respect to any costs resulting from such event, only be entitled to payment under Section 2.12(a) or (b), as the case may be, for costs incurred from and after the date 90 days prior to the date that such Lender does give such notice. Continental shall not be required to make payments to such Lender under Section 2.12(a) or (b), as the case may be, hereof to the extent the claim thereunder arises from the undercapitalization or other like circumstances peculiar to su ch Lender or to the extent arising from such Lender's failure to comply with applicable law, rule or regulation (or interpretation or administration thereof). Any such Lender shall not seek compensation under Section 2.12(a) or (b), as the case may be, if it shall not be also generally be seeking compensation (if it should be so entitled) against similar costs pursuant to other comparable contractual provisions in agreements with other borrowers.

Illegality.

If on any date the making, maintaining or continuation by any Lender of its Loans has become unlawful as a result of compliance by such Lender in good faith with any change that becomes effective after the date hereof in any law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (whether or not having the force of law), then such Lender shall be an "Affected Lender" and it shall promptly so notify (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender). Thereafter, the Affected Lender's outstanding Loans (the "Affected Loans") shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate, plus, the Applicable Margin, minus 1.00%, if that would cure such illegality, from the expiration of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the Affected Loans until such notice shall be withdrawn by the Affected Lender. The Borrowers may e lect to terminate such Affected Lender as a party to this Agreement in compliance with Section 2.17. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, nothing in this Section 2.13 shall affect the obligation of any Lender other than an Affected Lender to make or maintain Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Alternate Rate of Interest.

If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period, the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, all Loans shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate, plus, the Applicable Margin, minus, 1.00%.

Break Funding Costs.

In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the failure (other than as a result of a default by such Lender) to prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, or (c) the assignment of any Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.17, then, in any such event, each Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense sustained by such Lender attributable to such event with respect to the Class of Loans made to such Borrower. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the LIBO Rate (minus the Appl icable Margin) that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor, over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market (collectively, "Break Funding Costs"). Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 2.15 shall be made as though that Lender had actually funded each of its relevant Loans through the purchase of an eurodollar deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to the definition of LIBO Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing as sumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this Section 2.15. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by the Credit Parties under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Operative Document to which such Credit Party is a party shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities (including penalties, interest and additions to tax) with respect thereto, whether now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any taxation authority or other Governmental Authority (collectively, "Taxes"), unless required by law. If a Credit Party shall be required under any applicable law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Operative Document to the Administrative Agent or Lender, (i) such Credit Party shall make all such deductions and withholdings in respect of Taxes, (ii) such Credit Party shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld in respect of Taxes to the relevant taxation authority or other Governmental Authority in accordance with any applicable law, and (iii) the sum payable by such Credit Party shall be increased as may be necessary so that after such Credit Party has made all required deductions and withholdings (including any such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 2.16) the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made in respect of Non-Excluded Taxes. For purposes of this Agreement the term "Non-Excluded Taxes" are Taxes other than, in the case of the Administrative Agent or a Lender, (1) Taxes based on or measured by net income, net worth or capital, intangibles taxes, property taxes, gross income taxes, and franchise taxes imposed by (A) the jurisdiction or jurisdictions under the laws of which (or under the laws of any poli tical subdivision of which) the Administrative Agent or such Lender is organized or has its principal place of business, or any political subdivision thereof, (B) the jurisdiction or jurisdictions within which the office by which the loan was made or is maintained by such Lender is located, or (C) any other jurisdiction or jurisdictions, but only if such Tax is imposed by formulary apportionment on such Administrative Agent or Lender by reason of connections between such Administrative Agent or Lender other than in respect, or by reason, of this Agreement, unless such Administrative Agent or Lender becomes subject to Taxes or increased Taxes described in this clause (1) by such jurisdiction or jurisdictions in respect of this Agreement as a result of having executed, delivered or performed its obligations under or received payments under (other than mere increased Tax liability for interest payments received under this Agreement in respect of Taxes to which such Administrative Agent or Lender otherwise is su bject), or enforced, this Agreement or any other Operative Document (in which case such Taxes described in this clause (1) will be treated as Non-Excluded Taxes), or (2) Taxes imposed as a result of the Administrative Agent's or such Lender's failure to comply with Section 2.16(e) (including, the inaccuracy or invalidity of any form provided pursuant to Section 2.16(e), except to the extent provided for in Section 2.16(g)).

(b) In addition, each Credit Party hereby agrees to pay any present or future stamp, recording, documentary, excise, property or value-added or similar Taxes that arise from any payment made under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Operative Document or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or any performance under this Agreement or any other Operative Document, other than such Taxes imposed by the jurisdictions described in Section 2.16(a)(1)(A) and (B) with respect to the Lender or the Administrative Agent claiming indemnification under this Section 2.16(b) (any such non-excluded Taxes, "Other Taxes").

(c) Each Credit Party hereby agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and Lender for, and to hold each of them harmless against, the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes imposed in respect of this Agreement and Other Taxes, and the full amount of Taxes of any kind imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.16 imposed on or paid by such Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. The indemnity by Credit Party provided for in this Section 2.16(c) shall apply and be made whether or not the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes for which indemnification hereunder is sought have been correctly or legally asserted. Amounts payable by Credit Party under the indemnity set forth in this Section 2.16(c) shall be paid within ten (10) days from the date on which the Administrative Agent or Lender makes written demand therefo r. If the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, receives a tax refund that such person determines is solely attributable to any Taxes as to which the Administrative Agent or Lender has been indemnified under this Section 2.16(c), the Administrative Agent or Lender will pay to Credit Party (net of all out of pocket expenses) the amount that, in the Administrative Agent or Lender's sole discretion, is solely attributable to such Taxes.

(d) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of Taxes, a Credit Party (or any Person making such payment on behalf of a Credit Party) shall furnish to the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, for its own account a certified copy of the original official receipt evidencing payment thereof.

(e) For purposes of this clause (e) of this Section 2.16, the terms "United States" and "United States person" shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Internal Revenue Code. The Administrative Agent and each Lender (including for avoidance of doubt any assignee, successor or Participant) that either (i) is not incorporated under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia or (ii) whose name does not include "Incorporated," "Inc.," "Corporation," "Corp.," "P.C.," "insurance company," or "assurance company" (a "Non-Exempt Lender") shall deliver or cause to be delivered to a Credit Party the following properly completed and duly executed documents at the time such Lender becomes a Lender and thereafter upon request, when such form expires:

in the case of a Non-Exempt Lender that is not a United States person, a complete and executed (x) U.S. Internal Revenue Form W-8BEN with Part II completed in which Lender claims the benefits of a tax treaty with the United States providing for a zero or reduced rate of withholding (or any successor forms thereto), including all appropriate attachments or (y) a U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms thereto); or

in the case of a Non-Exempt Lender that is an individual, (x) a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor forms thereto) and a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit J (a "Section 2.16 Certificate") or (y) a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor forms thereto); or

in the case of a Non-Exempt Lender that is organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia, a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor forms thereto), including all appropriate attachments; or

in the case of a Non-Exempt Lender that (x) is not organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia and (y) is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming a zero rate of withholding (or any successor forms thereto) and a Section 2.16 Certificate; or

in the case of a Non-Exempt Lender that (A) is treated as a partnership or other non-corporate entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and (B) is not organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia, (x)(i) a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms thereto) (including all required documents and attachments) and (ii) a Section 2.16 Certificate, and (y) without duplication, with respect to each of its beneficial owners and the beneficial owners of such beneficial owners looking through chains of owners to individuals or entities that are treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes (all such owners, "beneficial owners"), the documents that would be required by clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (vi), (vii) and/or this clause (v) with respect to each such beneficial owner if such beneficial owner were Lender, provided, however, that no such documents will be required with respect to a beneficial owner to the extent the actual Lender is determined to be in compliance with the requirements for certification on behalf of its beneficial owner as may be provided in applicable U.S. Treasury regulations, or the requirements of this clause (v) are otherwise determined to be unnecessary, all such determinations under this clause (v) to be made in the sole discretion of a Credit Party, provided, however, that Lender shall be provided an opportunity to establish such compliance as reasonable; or

in the case of a Non-Exempt Lender that is disregarded for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the document that would be required by clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vii) and/or this clause (vi) of this Section 2.16(e) with respect to its beneficial owner if such beneficial owner were the Lender; or

in the case of a Non-Exempt Lender that (A) is not a United States person and (B) is acting in the capacity as an "intermediary" (as defined in U.S. Treasury Regulations), (x)(i) a U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor form thereto) (including all required documents and attachments) and (ii) a Section 2.16 Certificate, and (y) if the intermediary is a "non-qualified intermediary" (as defined in U.S. Treasury Regulations), from each person upon whose behalf the "non-qualified intermediary" is acting the documents that would be required by clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), and/or this clause (vii) with respect to each such person if each such person were Lender; or

as requested by a Credit Party, such other forms, certificates and documentation as the Administrative Agent or such Lender is, in its sole discretion, legally entitled to furnish and as may be necessary or appropriate to obtain any reduction of or exemption from any withholding or other Taxes on any payments made under this Agreement, unless it is legally inadvisable or otherwise commercially disadvantageous for such Administrative Agent or Lender to deliver such form, certificate, or other documentation.

(f) If the forms referred to above in clause (e) of this Section 2.16 that are provided by the Administrative Agent and/or a Lender at the time such Administrative Agent or Lender first becomes a party to this Agreement indicate a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be treated as Taxes other than "Non-Excluded Taxes" ("Excluded Taxes") and shall not qualify as Non-Excluded Taxes unless and until such Administrative Agent or Lender provides the appropriate form certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate shall be considered Excluded Taxes solely for the periods governed by such form. If, however, on the date a Person becomes an assignee, successor or Participant to this Agreement, Lender transferor was entitled to indemnification or additional amounts under this Section 2.16, then the Lender assignee, successor or Participant shall be entitled to indemnifica tion or additional amounts to the extent (and only to the extent), that the Lender transferor was entitled to such indemnification or additional amounts for Non-Excluded Taxes, and the Lender assignee or successor shall be entitled to additional indemnification or additional amounts for any other or additional Non-Excluded Taxes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.16, a Participant shall not be entitled to indemnification or additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16 for any Other Taxes or Non-Excluded Taxes to the extent such indemnification or additional amounts would exceed the amounts payable by the Credit Parties had the participation not taken place and such Participant shall not be entitled to such indemnification or additional amounts unless such Participant complies with the requirements of Section 2.17 (insofar as they relate to Section 2.16) as if such Participant were a Lender.

(g) For any period with respect to which the Administrative Agent or a Lender has failed to provide Credit Party with the appropriate, accurate and valid form, certificate or other document described in clause (e) of this Section 2.16 (other than (i) if such failure is due to a change in any applicable law, or in the interpretation or application thereof, occurring after the date on which a form, certificate or other document originally was required to be provided or (ii) if such form, certificate or other document is otherwise not required under clause (e) of this Section 2.16), such Administrative Agent or Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification or additional amounts under clauses (a) or (c) of this Section 2.16 with respect to Non-Excluded Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should the Administrative Agent or a Lender become subject to Non-Excluded Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form, certificate or other document required hereunder, Credit Party shall take such steps as such Administrative Agent or Lender shall reasonably request, to assist such Administrative Agent or Lender in recovering such Non-Excluded Taxes.

(h) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender is, in its sole opinion, able to apply for any credit, deduction or other reduction in the Taxes of such Administrative Agent or Lender described in the exclusion from Non-Excluded Taxes contained in clause (a)(1) of this Section 2.16 by reason of any payment made by a Credit Party under clause (a) or (c) of this Section 2.16, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall use reasonable efforts to obtain such credit, deduction or other reduction and, upon receipt thereof, will pay to Credit Party such amount, not exceeding the increased amount paid by Credit Party, as is equal to the net after-tax value to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (taking into account any tax benefit to the Administrative Agent or such Lender solely as a result of payments made pursuant to this clause (h)), in its sole opinion, of such part of such credit, deduction or other reduction as it conside rs to be allocable to such payment by Credit Party, having regard to all of the Administrative Agent's or such Lender's dealings giving rise to similar credits, deductions or other reductions in relation to the same tax period and to the cost of obtaining the same; provided, however, that (i) the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall not be obligated to disclose to Credit Party any information regarding its tax affairs or computations and (ii) nothing in this Section 2.16(h) shall interfere with the right of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to arrange its tax affairs as it deems appropriate.

(i) An Administrative Agent or Lender pursuant to Section 2.16(a) hereof shall take all reasonable actions (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) requested by a Credit Party to assist such Credit Party, at the sole expense of such Credit Party, to recover from the relevant taxation authority or other Governmental Authority any Taxes in respect of which amounts were paid by a Credit Party pursuant to Sections 2.16(a), (b) or (c) hereof. However, an Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, will not be required to take any action that would be, in the sole judgment of an Administrative Agent or Lender, legally inadvisable, or commercially or otherwise disadvantageous to an Administrative Agent or Lender in any respect, and in no event shall an Administrative Agent or Lender be required to disclose any tax returns or any other information that, in the sole judgment of the Administrative Agent or Lender is conf idential.

(j) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of each Credit Party hereunder, the agreements and obligations of each Credit Party contained in this Section 2.16 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Section 2.16 shall require the Administrative Agent or Lender to make available any of its tax returns or any other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary.

Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12, or if any Lender becomes an Affected Lender or if a Credit Party is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12 or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future or would allow such Affected Lender's Affected Loans to bear interest at the LIBO Rate plus the Applicable Margin and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Continental hereby agrees to pay all re asonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12, or if a Credit Party is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, or if any Lender becomes an Affected Lender or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, then such Credit Party may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.03), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or a Credit Party (in the case of all other amounts) and (ii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.12 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling a Credit Party to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

Such security interests (i) will be valid and enforceable and (ii) will not be subject to any defense, counterclaim or set-off of any Credit Party.

Use of Proceeds.

The proceeds of the Tranche A-2 Loans will be loaned by CMI to Continental subject to the Intercompany Subordination Agreement.

Permits.

Each of Continental and CMI is an "air carrier" within the meaning of Section 40102 of Title 49 and each holds a certificate under Section 41102 of Title 49. Each of Continental and CMI holds an air carrier operating certificate issued pursuant to Chapter 447 of Title 49 of the U.S. Code. Each of Continental, CMI and AMI is a Citizen of the United States.

Slot Utilization.

Continental is utilizing the Narita Slots and CMI is utilizing the CMI Material Slots in a manner consistent in all material respects with applicable regulations, foreign laws, and contracts in order to preserve both their right to hold and operate such Slots. No Credit Party has received any notice from any applicable Foreign Aviation Authority, nor is any Credit Party aware of any other event or circumstance, that would be reasonably likely to impair Continental's right to hold and operate the Narita Slots or CMI's right to hold and operate the CMI Material Slots in any material respect.

Route Utilization.

Continental, in the case of the Trans-Pacific Routes, AMI, in the case of the AMI Routes, and CMI, in the case of the CMI Routes, hold the requisite authority to operate such Routes (except that CMI rather than AMI is authorized to operate the AMI Routes) pursuant to Title 49, all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, applicable foreign law, and the applicable rules and regulations of the FAA, the DOT and any applicable Foreign Aviation Authorities and are in compliance in all material respects with all of the terms, conditions and limitations of each such certificate or order issued by the DOT and the applicable Foreign Aviation Authorities regarding such Route and with all applicable provisions of Title 49 of the U.S. Code or applicable foreign law. There exists no violation of such terms, conditions or limitations that gives the FAA, DOT or any applicable Foreign Aviation Authority the right to terminate, cancel, withdraw or modify in any material adverse respect the righ ts of Continental with respect to the Trans-Pacific Routes, AMI with respect to the AMI Routes currently being operated by CMI or CMI with respect to the CMI Routes currently being operated by CMI.

No Burdensome Restrictions.

There are no burdensome restrictions under applicable law (other than regulatory restrictions generally applicable to U.S. air carriers operating domestically and internationally) or under any material contracts of any Credit Party (other than the Merchant Services Bankcard Agreement dated December 26, 2003, among Continental, JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., and Chase Merchant Services LLC) that would reasonably to be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Solvency.

After giving effect to any Loans made to the Borrowers hereunder, each of the Borrowers is Solvent.

Anti-Terrorism Law.

The Borrowers are not and, to the knowledge of the executive officers of the Borrowers, no Affiliate or broker or other agent of the Borrowers acting or benefiting in any capacity in connection with the Loans is, any of the following:

a Person that is listed in the annex to, or is otherwise subject to the provisions of, the Executive Order;

a Person with which the Lender is prohibited from dealing or otherwise engaging in any transaction by any Prescribed Law; or

a Person that is named as a "specially designated national and blocked person" on the most current list published by the U.S. Treasury Department Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC") at its official website or any replacement website or other replacement official publication of such list.

No Borrower and, to the knowledge of the executive officers of each Borrower, no broker or other agent of the Borrowers acting in any capacity in connection with the Loans (i) deals in, or otherwise engages in any transaction relating to, any property or interests in property blocked pursuant to the Executive Order, or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of each Borrower, to or for the benefit of any Person described in clause (a) above or (ii) engages in or conspires to engage in any transaction that evades or avoids, or has the purpose of evading or avoiding, or attempts to violate, any of the prohibitions set forth in any Anti-Terrorism Law.

Intellectual Property.

Each Credit Party owns, or is licensed to use, all trademarks, tradenames and copyrights necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted except for those the failure to own or license which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (the "Intellectual Property"). No material claim has been asserted and is pending by any Person challenging or questioning the use of any such Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness of any such Intellectual Property, nor does such Credit Party know of any valid basis for any such claim. The use of such Intellectual Property by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries does not infringe on the rights of any Person, except for such claims and infringements that, in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS

From the time the Lenders advance the Loans to the Borrowers until the Termination Date, the following covenants shall be effective:

Indemnification.

Each Lender severally agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed under Section 9.05, but without limiting the obligations of the Credit Parties under said Section 9.05), to the extent of such Lender's ratable portion of such indemnity payment (such ratable portion to be a portion thereof equal to such Lender's percentage of the total Loans represented by such Lender's Loans unless such Lender's Loans have terminated or expired, in which case such percentage shall be determined based upon such Lender's Loans most recently in effect, giving effect to any assignments (such percentage shall be determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount), for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administ rative Agent arising out of or by reason of any investigation in or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Operative Document or any other documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including, without limitation, the costs and expenses that the Credit Parties are obligated to pay under Section 9.05, but excluding, unless a Default has occurred and is continuing, normal administrative costs and expenses incident to the performance of its agency duties hereunder) or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other documents, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified, provided, further, that to the extent indemnification payments made by the Lenders pursuant to this Section 8.05 are subsequently recovered from or for the account o f the Credit Parties, the Administrative Agent shall promptly refund such previously paid indemnification payments to the Lenders.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement.

Failure to Act.

Except for action expressly required of the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Operative Documents, the Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder and thereunder unless it shall receive further assurances to its satisfaction from the Lenders of their indemnification obligations under Section 8.05 against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Operative Documents in accordance with a request of the requisite Lenders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans.

Resignation or Removal of Administrative Agent.

Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of Credit Parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor, which successor shall be a Lender; provided, however, that if such successor was not a Lender on the date first written above, the Credit Parties must give their prior written consent to such appointment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with a minimum net worth of $500,000,000 and an office in New York, New York, through which office it shall serve as Administrative Agent or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in New York, New York, through which office it shall serve as Administrative Agent.

The fees payable by Continental to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Continental and such successor. After the Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related P arties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent.

Maintaining the Cash Collateral.

If any Cash Collateral is deposited with the Administrative Agent under any Collateral Document, the Administrative Agent shall maintain such Cash Collateral only with an Eligible Institution in an Eligible Account. Upon request of Continental, the Administrative Agent shall advise Continental of the face amount of all Cash Collateral held by the Administrative Agent, and Continental may conclusively rely on such advise in determining the Borrowing Base.

From time to time the Administrative Agent will (i) invest, or direct the applicable Eligible Institution to invest, amounts received with respect to the applicable Cash Collateral in such Permitted Investments as Continental (or, if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Majority Lenders) may select and (ii) invest or direct the applicable Eligible Institution to invest, interest paid on the Permitted Investments referred to in clause (i) above, and reinvest other proceeds of any such Permitted Investments that may mature or be sold, in each case in such Permitted Investments credited in the same manner. The Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Credit Party that deposits any Cash Collateral upon its request any income or gain (including interest received) realized as the result of any such investment of such Cash Collateral (net of any fees, commissions and other expenses, if any, incurred in connection with such investment) unless an Event of Default sh all have occurred and be continuing. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent shall hold any such income or gain as security for the obligations of the applicable Credit Party under the applicable Collateral Document and apply it against obligations secured thereby as the Administrative Agent shall determine, and at such time as there shall not be continuing any Event of Default, such amount, to the extent not previously so applied against such Credit Party's obligations, shall be paid to such Credit Party. Each Credit Party will promptly pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, the amount of any loss as the result of any such investment of Cash Collateral deposited by it (together with any fees, commissions and other expenses, if any, incurred in connection with such investment).

If at any time the Administrative Agent holds or controls Cash Collateral under any Collateral Documents and a Borrower has given notice of prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.09, upon written request by such Borrower to the Administrative Agent prior to the applicable prepayment date, the Administrative Agent shall apply or cause to be applied such Cash Collateral to the prepayment of the Loans up to the amount due with respect to such prepayment (or such lesser amount as such Borrower may specify in such notice).

If the Borrowing Base, as most recently determined pursuant to this Agreement, exceeds the outstanding principal amount of the Loans and the Administrative Agent then holds or controls Cash Collateral under any Collateral Document, upon request by the Credit Party that deposited such Cash Collateral to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall pay or cause to be paid to such Credit Party the amount of such Cash Collateral requested by such Credit Party so long as, after giving effect to such payment, the Borrowing Base will not be less than the outstanding principal amount of the Loans.

Assignments and Participations; Register.

The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Credit Parties may not assign or otherwise transfer any of their rights or obligations hereunder or under any of the other Operative Documents without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by a Credit Party without such consent shall be null and void) except as permitted by Section 6.02. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

Any Lender may and, if requested by a Credit Party pursuant to Section 2.17(b), upon at least five Business Days notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, shall assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that (i) except for assignments to an Affiliate of a Lender, the Administrative Agent and each Borrower must each give its prior written consents to such assignment (which consents shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld), (ii) the amount of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000 and increments of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, unless each of the Credit Parties and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, (iii) eac h assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement (it being understood that Tranche A-1 Term Loans and Tranche A-2 Loans held by a Lender may not be transferred separately or in disproportionate amounts), (iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly executed Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, and (v) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire; provided further that any consent of the Credit Parties otherwise required under this paragraph shall not be required if an Event of Default under clauses (f), (g) or (h) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to clause (d) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignme nt and Acceptance the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.05). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with clause (e) of this Section.

The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices in The City of New York a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the "Register"). Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect a Credit Party's obligations in respect of such rights. If the Lender sells a participation in its rights hereunder, it shall provide each Credit Party, or maintain as agent of the Credit Parties, the information described in this paragraph and permit each Credit Party to review such information as reasonably needed for such Credit Party to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or under any applicable law. Any assignment or transfer by the Lender of rights or obligat ions under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.03 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with this Section 9.03(c). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Credit Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Credit Parties and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Credit Parties reasonably promptly after receiving actual notice of the same if (i) any Person becomes a Lender and (ii) any Lender alters or modifies its name, or address, in each case by delivering to the Credit Parties a written update of the names and addresses of all Lenders.

Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee's completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in clause (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by clause (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

Any Lender may, without the consent of any Credit Party or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a "Participant") in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Credit Parties, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to clause (f) of this Section, the Credit Parties agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.15 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section.

A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.12, 2.15 and 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant and shall be subject to the terms of Section 2.17(a). The Lender selling the participation to such Participant shall be subject to the terms of Section 2.17(b) if such Participant requests compensation or additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.12 or 2.16.

Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

If the Borrowers wish to replace Loans under any Facility with ones having different terms, they shall have the option, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and subject to at least three Business Days' advance notice to the Lenders, instead of prepaying the Loans or reducing or terminating the Commitments to be replaced, to (i) require the other Lenders to assign such Loans or Commitments to the Administrative Agent or its designees and (ii) amend the terms thereof in accordance with Section 9.01. Pursuant to any such assignment, all Loans and Commitments to be replaced shall be purchased at par (allocated among the other Lenders in the same manner as would be required if such Loans were being optionally prepaid or such Commitments were being optionally reduced or terminated by the Borrowers), accompanied by payment of any accrued interest, premiums (including any premiums payable pursuant to Section 2.09, it being understood that any assignment pursuant to this Section 9.03(h) shall be deemed an optional prepayment under Section 2.09 for purposes of the payment of such premiums) and fees thereon and any amounts owing pursuant to Section 9.05. By receiving such purchase price, the Lenders shall automatically be deemed to have assigned their Commitments pursuant to the terms of the Assignment and Acceptance, and accordingly no other action by such Lenders shall be required in connection therewith. The provisions of this paragraph are intended to facilitate the maintenance of the perfection and priority of existing security interests in the Collateral during any such replacement.

No Waiver; Remedies.

No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or any other Operative Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder and in the other Operative Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 9.01 hereof, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

Continental shall pay, upon receipt of statements of account containing reasonable detail, (i) the Administrative Agent and the Arranger within 10 days of written request therefor, for all out-of-pocket expenses (including due diligence expenses, fees and expenses of consultants and advisors to the Administrative Agent and the Arranger if Continental has authorized the Administrative Agent and the Arranger to use such consultants and advisors, and reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel) incurred in connection with the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement or the other Operative Documents or any related documentation (including the Engagement Letter) or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) and (ii) all out of pocket expenses incurred during the continuance of an Event of Default by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including t he reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights under this Agreement or any of the other Operative Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred (x) during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans, and (y) the custody or preservation of, or the sale of, collection from or other realization upon any of the Collateral.

Continental shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an "Indemnitee") against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses incurred or suffered by any Indemnitee, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee (but excluding Taxes, which will be governed by Section 2.16), in any way arising out of, related to or as a result of (i) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto (including any investigating, preparing for or defending any such claims, actions, suits, investigations or proceedings, whether or not in connection with pending or threatened litigation in which such Indemnitee is a party), relating to the e xecution or delivery of this Agreement or any of the other Operative Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the existence or consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, or (ii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by a Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Credit Parties; provided that Continental will not be responsible for any losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities of any Indemnitee to the extent they are judicially determined to have resulted from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of any Indemnitee, and the Administrative Agent shall cause each Indemnitee to repay Continental the amount of any expenses previously reimbursed by Continental in connection with any such loss, claims, damages, expenses or liability.

In case any action or proceeding shall be brought or asserted against an Indemnitee in respect of which indemnity may be sought against any Credit Party under the provisions of any Operative Document, such Indemnitee shall promptly notify such Credit Party in writing and such Credit Party shall, if requested by such Indemnitee or if such Credit Party desires to do so, assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee but only if (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (ii) such action or proceeding does not involve any risk of criminal liability or material civil money penalties being imposed on such Indemnitee. A Credit Party shall not enter into any settlement of any such action or proceeding that admits any Indemnitee's misconduct or negligence. The failure to so notify a Credit Party shall not affect any obligations such Credit Party may have to such Indemnitee under the Operative Documents or otherwis e other than to the extent that such Credit Party is adversely affected by such failure. The Indemnitees shall have the right to employ separate counsel in such action or proceeding and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnitees unless: (i) a Credit Party has agreed to pay such fees and expenses, (ii) a Credit Party has failed to assume the defense of such action or proceeding and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitees or (iii) the Indemnitees shall have been advised in writing by counsel that under prevailing ethical standards there may be a conflict between the positions of the Credit Parties and the Indemnitees in conducting the defense of such action or proceeding or that there may be legal defenses available to the Indemnitees different from or in addition to those available to the Credit Parties, in which case, if the Indemnitees notify the Credit Parties in writing that they elect to employ separate coun sel at the expense of the Credit Parties, the Credit Parties shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action or proceeding on behalf of the Indemnitees; provided, however, that the Credit Parties shall not, in connection with any one such action or proceeding or separate but substantially similar or related actions or proceedings in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be responsible hereunder for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one such firm of separate counsel, in addition to any local counsel. The Credit Parties shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action or proceeding effected without the written consent of the Credit Parties (which shall not be unreasonably withheld).

To the extent that the Credit Parties fail to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent under clauses (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent such Lender's percentage of the total Commitments represented by such Lender's Commitment unless such Lender's Commitments have terminated or expired, in which case such percentage shall be determined based upon such Lender's Commitments most recently in effect, giving effect to any assignments (such percentage shall be determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Credit Parties shall not assert, and hereby waive, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of or in any way related to this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.

All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor accompanied by invoices containing reasonable detail.

Guarantee Provisions; Joint and Several Liability.

Each Credit Party hereby irrevocably guarantees the payment of all Obligations of each other Credit Party as set forth below:

(a) Guarantee. Each Credit Party hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the full and punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all Obligations; provided, however, that each Credit Party shall only be liable under this Agreement for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering this Agreement, as it relates to such Credit Party, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount. This guarantee constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection, and each Credit Party specifically agrees that it shall not be necessary or required that the Lenders exercise any right, assert any claim or demand or enforce any remedy whatsoever against any Obligor or any other Person before or as a condition to the obligations of such Credit Party her eunder.

(b) Guarantee Absolute, etc. The guarantee agreed to above shall in all respects be a continuing, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable guarantee of payment, and shall remain in full force and effect until the Termination Date. Each Credit Party jointly and severally guarantees that the Obligations shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of each Operative Document under which such Obligations arise, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Lender with respect thereto. The liability of each Credit Party under this Section 9.06 shall be joint and several, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable irrespective of (i) any lack of validity, legality or enforceability of any Operative Document; (ii) the failure of the Lenders (A) to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any Obligor or any other Person (including any other guarantor) unde r the provisions of any Operative Document or otherwise, or (B) to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor (including any Obligor) of, or collateral securing, any Obligations; (iii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any part of the Obligations, or any other extension, compromise or renewal of any Obligation; (iv) any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination of any Obligations for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to (and each Credit Party hereby waives any right to or claim of) any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, irregularity, compromise, unenforceability of, or any other event or occurrence affecting, any Obligations or otherwise, other than payment in full in cash in accordance with the terms thereof; (v) any amendment to, rescission, waiver, or other modification of, or an y consent to or departure from, any of the terms of any Operative Document; (vi) any addition, exchange, release, surrender or non-perfection of any collateral, or any amendment to or waiver or release or addition of, or consent to or departure from, any other guarantee held by the Lenders securing any of the Obligations; or (vii) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, any Obligor, any surety or any guarantor (other than payment in full in cash in accordance with the terms thereof.

(c) Reinstatement, etc. Each Credit Party agrees that its guarantee shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment (in whole or in part) of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Lenders, upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any other Credit Party, any other Obligor or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

(d) Waiver, etc. Each Credit Party hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Obligations and this Agreement for purposes of this Section 9.06 and any requirement that the Lenders protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien, or any property subject thereto, or exhaust any right or take any action against any other Obligor or any other Person (including any other guarantor) or entity or any collateral securing the Obligations, as the case may be.

(e) Postponement of Subrogation, etc. Each Credit Party agrees that it shall not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of rights of subrogation under any Operative Document to which it is a party, nor shall any Credit Party seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from any Obligor, in respect of any payment made hereunder, under any other Operative Document or otherwise, until following the Termination Date. Any amount paid to any Credit Party on account of any such subrogation rights prior to the Termination Date shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Lenders and shall immediately be paid and turned over to the Lenders in the exact form received by such Credit Party (duly endorsed in favor of the Lenders, if required), to be credited and applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured; provided, however, that if (i) any Credit Party has made payment to the Lenders of all or any part of the Obligations; and (ii) the Termination Date has occurred; then at such Credit Party's request, the Lenders shall, at the expense of such Credit Party, execute and deliver to such Credit Party appropriate documents (without recourse and without representation or warranty) necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Credit Party of an interest in the Obligations resulting from such payment. In furtherance of the foregoing, at all times prior to the Termination Date, each Credit Party shall refrain from taking any action or commencing any proceeding against any Obligor (or its successors or assigns, whether in connection with a bankruptcy proceeding or otherwise) to recover any amounts in the respect of payments made under any Operative Document to the Lenders.

(f) Right of Contribution. Each Credit Party hereby agrees that, to the extent that a Credit Party shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder or in respect of the Obligations, such Credit Party shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against the other Credit Party hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. The provisions of this Section shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Credit Party to the Lenders, and each Credit Party shall remain liable to the Lenders for the full amount guaranteed by it hereunder.

P = Airframe Price plus Optional Features Price (as set forth in Table 1 of this Purchase Agreement).

ECI is a value determined using the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics [CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT], calculated by establishing a three-month arithmetic average value (expressed as a decimal and rounded to the nearest tenth) using the values for the [CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] months prior to the month of scheduled delivery of the applicable Aircraft. As the Employment Cost Index values are only released on a quarterly basis, the value released for the month of March will be used for the months of January and February; the value for June used for April and May; the value for September used for July and August; and the value for December used for October and November.

[CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] is a value determined using the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics [CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT], calculated as a 3-month arithmetic average of the released monthly values (expressed as a decimal and rounded to the nearest tenth) using the values for the [CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] months prior to the month of scheduled delivery of the applicable Aircraft.

As an example, for an Aircraft scheduled to be delivered in the month of July, the months [CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] of the preceding year will be utilized in determining the value of ECI and [CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT].

Note: i. In determining the values of L and M, all calculations and resulting values will be expressed as a decimal rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth.

ii. [CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] is the numeric ratio attributed to [CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] in the Airframe Price Adjustment formula.

iii. [CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] is the numeric ratio attributed to [CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] in the Airframe Price Adjustment formula.

iv. The denominators (base year indices) are the actual average values reported by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. The actual average values are calculated as a 3-month arithmetic average of the released monthly values (expressed as a decimal and rounded to the nearest tenth) using the values for the [CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] months prior to the airframe base year. The applicable base year and corresponding denominator is provided by Boeing in Table 1 of this Purchase Agreement.

2.2 Notwithstanding Article 2.1 above, if prior to the scheduled delivery month of an Aircraft the Bureau of Labor Statistics changes the base year for determination of the ECI and [CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] values as defined above, such re-based values will be incorporated in the Airframe Price Adjustment calculation.

2.3 [CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT]

2.4 If within 12 months of Aircraft delivery, the published index values are revised due to an acknowledged error by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Airframe Price Adjustment will be re-calculated using the revised index values (this does not include those values noted as preliminary by the Bureau of Labor Statistics). A credit memorandum or supplemental invoice will be issued for the Airframe Price Adjustment difference. Interest charges will not apply for the period of original invoice to issuance of credit memorandum or supplemental invoice.

Note: i. The values released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics and available to Boeing 30 days prior to the first day of the scheduled delivery month of an Aircraft will be used to determine the ECI and [CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] values for the applicable months (including those noted as preliminary by the Bureau of Labor Statistics) to calculate the Airframe Price Adjustment for the Aircraft invoice at the time of delivery. The values will be considered final and no Airframe Price Adjustments will be made after Aircraft delivery for any subsequent changes in published Index values, subject always to paragraph 2.4 above.

ii. The maximum number of digits to the right of the decimal after rounding utilized in any part of the Airframe Price Adjustment equation will be 4, where rounding of the fourth digit will be increased to the next highest digit when the 5th digit is equal to 5 or greater.
