The Lessee shall maintain all records, logs and other materials that may be required to permit the Airframe and each Engine to be so utilized. The Lessee will comply in all material respects with all airworthiness directives, mandatory notes or modifications or similar requirements affecting the same (including those issued by the manufacturer or supplier) in such condition so as to comply with this Lease and the rules and regulations of the FAA from time to time in force and applicable to the Aircraft and Engines. Neither the Airframe nor any No Engine will be maintained, used or operated in violation of any law or any rule, regulation or order of any government or governmental authority having jurisdiction (domestic or foreign), or in violation of any airworthiness certificate, license or registration relating to the Airframe or such Engine issued by any such authority, and in the event that such laws, rules, regulations or orders require alteration of the Airframe or any Engine, the Lessee, at its own cost and expense, will conform thereto or obtain conformance therewith and will maintain the same in proper operating condition under such laws, rules, regulations and orders, provided, however, that the Lessee may, in good faith (after having delivered to the Lessor and the Agent an Officers' Certificate stating the facts with respect thereto), contest the validity or application of any such law, rule, regulation or order in any reasonable manner that does not, in the Lessor's and the Agent's opinion (in their sole discretion), adversely affect the interests of the Lessor, the Agent or any Lender. The Lessee covenants and agrees with the Lessor that, the better to ensure the availability of the benefits of Section 1110 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Lessee shall not object to any motion, petition or application filed by the Lessor with any bankruptcy court having jurisdiction over the Lessee, solely as to the portion thereof that seeks, and to the extent that such motion, petition or application seeks, a determination that such Section 1110 of the Bankruptcy Code applies to the lease of the Aircraft Engines hereunder. In the event that Section 1110 is amended, or if it is repealed and another statute is enacted in lieu thereof, the Lessor and the Lessee (at the Lessee's expense) agree to amend this Lease and take such other action not inconsistent with this Lease as the Lessor reasonably deems necessary so as to afford to the Lessor the rights and benefits as such amended or substituted statute confers upon owners, lessors and conditional vendors of aircraft engines similarly situated to the Lessor. The Lessee will not operate, use or locate the Airframe or any Engine, (I) in any area in which any insurance required to be maintained pursuant to Section 14 shall not be at the time in full force and effect, or in any area excluded from coverage by an insurance policy in effect with respect to the Airframe or such Engine, except in the case of a requisition for use by the United States of America, and then only if the Lessee obtains indemnity in lieu of such insurance from the United States of America against the risks and in the amounts required by said Section covering such area, or (II) in any recognized or threatened area of hostilities unless the Airframe or such Engine is operated or used under contract with the Government of the United States of America under which contract that Government assumes liabilities for any damages, loss, destruction or failure to return possession of the Airframe or such Engine at the end of the term of such contract and for injury to persons or damage to property of others. The Lessee shall not use the Aircraft any Engine nor suffer it to be used in any manner or for any purpose excepted from any of the insurance on or in respect of the Aircraft Engine or for the purpose of carriage of goods of any description excepted from such insurance nor do, or permit per- mit to be done, anything which, or omit to do anything the omission of which, may invalidate any of such insurance.
