AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF RECAPITALIZATION

AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF RECAPITALIZATION, dated as of March 25, 1994, as amended and restated (the "Agreement"), among UAL Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), Air Line Pilots Association, International ("ALPA"), pursuant to its authority as the collective bargaining representative for the crafts or class of pilots employed by United Air Lines, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company ("United"), and International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers ("IAM" and, together with ALPA, the "Unions"), pursuant to its authority as the collective bargaining representative for the crafts or classes of mechanics and related employees, ramp and stores employees, food service employees, dispatchers and security officers employed by United.

In consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I THE RECAPITALIZATION SECTION 1.1 The Recapitalization. Pursuant to Section 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware ("Delaware Law"), as soon as practicable after satisfaction or, to the extent permitted hereunder, waiver of all conditions set forth in Article VIII, the Company will file an amended and restated certificate of incorporation in form and substance as set forth on Schedule 1.1 (the "Restated Certificate") with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. Except as otherwise provided herein, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, the "Recapitalization") shall become effective at such time as the Restated Certificate is duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at such later time as may be mutually agreed upon by the Company and each of the Unions and as is specified in the Restated Certificate (the "Effective Time").

SECTION 1.2 Reclassification of Old Shares. (a) At the Effective Time, subject to Section 1.5(f), each share of common stock, par value $5.00 per share, of the Company ("Common Stock") outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, including each share of vested and unvested restricted stock issued pursuant to the UAL 1988 Restricted Stock Plan, together with each share of Common Stock held by the Company as treasury stock or owned by any wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company which is not cancelled immediately prior to the Effective Time pursuant to Section 1.2(b) (each of the foregoing being referred to herein as an "Old Share"), shall, without any further action on the part of the holder thereof, be reclassified (the "Reclassification") as, and converted into:

(i) 0.5 of a share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the "New Shares") having the rights, powers and privileges described in the Restated Certificate; and

(ii) one one-thousandth of a share of Series D Redeemable Preferred Stock of the Company, without par value (the "Redeemable Preferred Stock"), having the rights, powers and privileges described in the Restated Certificate.

If the Underwriting Alternative (as defined in Section 1.11 hereof) has been elected and consummated with respect to the Depositary Shares (as defined), the Series A Debentures (as defined) and/or the Series B Debentures (as defined), the terms of the Redeemable Preferred Stock will be modified as provided in the Restated Certificate.

(b) Each Old Share held by the Company as treasury stock or owned by any wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time (the "Treasury Shares"), up to a maximum of 1,000,000 Treasury Shares (the "Retained Treasury Shares"), shall be reclassified and converted in accordance with Section 1.2(a), with all Treasury Shares in excess of 1,000,000 being surrendered for cancellation immediately prior to the Effective Time and no payment shall be made with respect thereto. Immediately following the Effective Time, the Company and each of its wholly owned Subsidiaries (as defined in Section 3.6) shall surrender for cancellation the Redeemable Preferred Stock received upon Reclassification of the Retained Treasury Shares and no payment shall be made in respect thereof.

SECTION 1.3 Redemption. Following the Effective Time, all outstanding shares of Redeemable Preferred Stock shall, to the extent of funds legally available therefor and subject to the provisions of the Restated Certificate, be redeemed immediately after issuance according to the terms thereof (the "Redemption"). Pursuant to the Redemption, the holders of Redeemable Preferred Stock, if any, shall be entitled to receive, in respect of each one one-thousandth of a share of Redeemable Preferred Stock, subject to the terms thereof and Section 1.5(f):

(i) $25.80 in cash; (ii) either (a) depositary shares (the "Depositary Shares") representing interests in $31.10 liquidation preference of Series B Preferred Stock of the Company, without par value (the "Public Preferred Stock"), or (b) if the Underwriting Alternative with respect to the Depositary Shares is consummated, a cash payment equal to the Depositary Share Proceeds Amount (as defined);

(iii) either (a) $15.55 principal amount of Series A Senior Unsecured Debentures due 2004 of United issued as provided below (the "Series A Debentures") or (b) if the Underwriting Alternative with respect to the Series A Debentures is consummated, a cash payment equal to the Series A Debenture Proceeds Amount (as defined); and

(iv) either (a) $15.55 principal amount of Series B Senior Unsecured Debentures due 2014 of United issued as provided below (the "Series B Debentures" and, together with the Series A Debentures, collectively, the "Debentures") or (b) if the Underwriting Alternative with respect to the Series B Debentures is consummated, a cash payment equal to the Series B Debenture Proceeds Amount (as defined).

The Depositary Shares shall be issued pursuant to a Deposit Agreement substantially in the form set forth on Schedule 1.3(a) (the "Deposit Agreement"). The Depositary Shares shall be issued only in denominations of $25.00 of liquidation preference and integral multiples thereof. The Public Preferred Stock shall have the rights, powers and privileges described in the Restated Certificate, which shall include a per share liquidation preference of $25,000. The Debentures shall be issued pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of July 1, 1991, between United arid the Bank of New York, and the Officers' Certificate (the "Officers' Certificate") in form and substance as set forth on Schedule 1.3(b) (collectively, the "Indenture"). Such Indenture shall be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the "TIA"). The Debentures shall be issued only in denominations of $100 and integral multiples thereof or, if the Underwriting Alternative with respect to either series of Debentures is consummated at or prior to the Effective Time and the Company so elects, denominations of $1,000 and integral multiple thereof, in which case conforming changes shall be made to this Agreement and the attachments hereto to take into account such greater denominations with respect to such series.

SECTION 1.4 Pricing of Specified Securities. (a) The parties have agreed that the respective interest and dividend rates that would be required to be applied to the Debentures and the Public Preferred Stock, respectively, in order for the Debentures and the Depositary Shares to trade at 100% of aggregate principal amount (in the case of the Debentures) or at 100% of aggregate liquidation preference (in the case of the Depositary Shares) (collectively "par") as of the close of business, New York time, on the Trading Day (as defined below) immediately preceding the date hereof (assuming for such purpose that the Debentures and the Depositary Shares were fully distributed on such date) would be as follows (the "Initial Pricing"): Series A Dentures--9.00%, Series B Debentures,--9.70% and Public Preferred Stock-10.25%. Each of the Series A Debentures, the Series B Debentures and the Public Preferred Stock is referred to herein as a "Specified Security" and, collectively, as the "Specified Securities."

(b) On the Trading Day immediately preceding the Announcement Date, CS First Boston Corporation ("First Boston") (in consultation with Lazard Freres & Co. ("hazard")) on behalf of the Company and Keilin & Bloom (or such other investment banking firm as may be reasonably selected by the Unions) on behalf of the Unions (the "Primary Banking Firms") shall seek to mutually determine the interest or dividend rates, as applicable (the "Applicable Rate"), that each of the Specified Securities should bear in order for such Specified Security (in the case of the Debentures) or the Depositary Shares (in the case of the Public Preferred Stock) to trade at par as of the close of business, New York time, on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Announcement Date, assuming both that an Underwriting Alternative with respect thereto had and had not been elected and further assuming in each such case that such Specified Security or Depositary Shares, as the case may be, were fully distributed on such Trading Day. If the Primary Banking Firms agree on the Applicable Rate with respect to a Specified Security, such Specified Security shall bear such rate and such rate shall be the Applicable Rate with respect to such Specified Security. If the Primary Banking Firms are unable to agree on the Applicable Rate with respect to a Specified Security, then (i) Salomon Brothers Inc, or such other firm as agreed in writing by the Primary Banking Firms (the "Deadlock Firm"), shall render its opinion, on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Announcement Date, as to the Applicable Rate with respect to such Specified Security or Securities, and (ii) the Applicable Rate with respect to such Specified Security or Securities shall be the average of the two closest rates specified in the opinions of the Primary Banking Firms and the Deadlock Firm, rounded to the nearest one one-hundredth of a percent in the case of the interest rate for the Debentures and to the nearest one one-hundredth of a percent in the case of the dividend rate for the Public Preferred Stock; provided however, that, in no event shall the Applicable Rate with respect to the Specified Securities exceed (x) in the case of the Series A Debentures, 10.125%; (y) in the case of the Series B Debentures, 10.825%; and (z) in the case of the Public Preferred Stock, 11.375% (the "Maximum Pricing").

(c) On the Announcement Date, the Company shall issue a press release setting forth the Applicable Rate for each of the Specified Securities, which press release shall be distributed to major wire services and news agencies, and shall confirm that the Company Stockholder Meeting (as defined in Section 5.2) will be held as scheduled, and shall contain such other information as may be mutually agreed upon by the Company and the Unions.

(d) "Announcement Date" shall mean a Trading Day which shall be not fewer than five calendar days nor greater than ten calendar days preceding the date of the Company Stockholder Meeting, such date to be disclosed to the Unions not fewer than ten calendar days prior thereto. "Trading Day" shall mean a day on which the New York Stock Exchange. Inc. ("NYSE") is open for the transaction of business.

(e) The parties agree that the Initial Pricing of the Debentures (and the Maximum Pricing for the Debentures) was based on, and the Applicable Rates will be based on, the assumption that the Debentures will not be callable prior to their respective stated maturities. The parties further agree that the Unions may request, not less than seven days prior to the Announcement Date, that, in the event that the Underwriting Alternative is not consummated with respect to either or both series of Debentures, either or both of the series of Debentures shall be callable prior to stated maturity. If so requested, immediately following the establishment of the Applicable Rates and prior to the Announcement Date, an additional procedure (based on the procedure set forth in Section 1.4(b)) shall be implemented whereby the Primary Banking Firms shall establish the incremental increase in pricing resulting from the addition of the call feature on either or both of the series of Debentures, as the case may be, above the Applicable Rate, with any disagreement to be resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 1.4(b) involving the Deadlock Firm; provided however, that the Unions may withdraw the request for a call feature at any time up to the issuance of the press release in accordance with subsection 1.4(c).

(f) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or the Schedules or Exhibits hereto to the contrary, if the Underwriting Alternative with respect to the Depositary Shares or either series of Debentures is consummated, (i) with respect to the securities that are subject to the Underwriting Alternative, the Company and United, in consultation with the underwriters, may set the record dates and payment dates (quarterly and semiannually, respectively) for the Public Preferred Stock (to which the Depositary Shares relate) and the Debentures, may select a regular interest payment date in the year 2004 as the maturity date for the Series A Debentures and may set a regular interest payment date in the year 2014 as the maturity date for the Series B Debentures and (ii) the following provisions of this subsection 1.4(f), with respect to the securities that are subject to the Underwriting Alternative, shall be null and void. If the Company causes a regular quarterly dividend to be paid on both the Public Preferred Stock and the Prior Preferred Stock (as defined below) in respect of any regular quarterly dividend payment date, then the Company shall cause the quarterly record date (and corresponding dividend payment date) for the payment of such dividend on the Public Preferred Stock to be the same as the quarterly record date (and corresponding dividend payment date) for the payment of such dividend on the Series A 6.25% Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company (the "Prior Preferred Stock"). With respect to a regular quarterly dividend payment date for the Public Preferred Stock and the Prior Preferred Stock that coincides with a regular semi-annual interest payment date for the Debentures, if the Company causes (i) a regular quarterly dividend to be paid on the Public Preferred Stock or the Prior Preferred Stock, or both, in respect of any such quarterly dividend payment date and (ii) a regular semi-annual installment of interest to be paid on the Debentures in respect of such regular semi-annual interest payment date, then the Company shall cause the semi-annual record date (and corresponding interest payment date) for such payment of interest on the Debentures to be the same as the quarterly record date (and corresponding dividend payment date) for the payment of such dividend on the Public Preferred Stock or the Prior Preferred Stock or both, as the case may be.

SECTION 1.5 Surrender and Exchange. (a) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall enter into an agreement (the "Exchange Agent Agreement") with First Chicago Trust Company of New York, as exchange agent (the "Exchange Agent"), for the purpose of exchanging certificates representing Old Shares for the Recapitalization Consideration (defined below). The Company will make available to the Exchange Agent, as needed, in trust for the benefit of holders of Old Shares, the Recapitalization Consideration (as defined herein) to be distributed in respect of the Old Shares (without regard to Section 1.5(f)). The cash portion of the Recapitalization Consideration shall be invested by the Exchange Agent as directed by the Company (so long as such directions do not impair the rights of holders of Old Shares), in direct obligations of the United States, obligations for which the full faith and credit of the United States is pledged to provide for the payment of principal and interest, commercial paper rated of the highest quality by ▇▇▇▇▇'▇ Investors Services, Inc. and Standard & Poor's Corporation or certificates of deposit issued by a commercial bank having at least $10,000,000,000 in assets (collectively, "Permitted Securities"), and any net earnings with respect thereto shall be paid to the Company. The Exchange Agent shall, pursuant to irrevocable instructions, make the distributions referred to in Section 1.5(b) and the Recapitalization Consideration held by the Exchange Agent shall not be used for any other purpose. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, the Company will send, or cause the Exchange Agent to send and otherwise make available, to each holder of Old Shares at the Effective Time a letter of transmittal, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Unions and the Company, for use in such exchange. Such letter of transmittal shall advise such holder of the effectiveness of the Recapitalization, whether or not any portion of the Underwriting Alternative has been consummated and, if consummated, the expected amount of the Proceeds Amount, and the procedures for surrendering to the Exchange Agent certificates representing Old Shares for exchange into Recapitalization Consideration and shall specify that the delivery shall be effected, and the risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the certificates representing Old Shares to the Exchange Agent.

(b) Each holder of Old Shares that have been converted into New Shares and Redeemable Preferred Stock, upon surrender to the Exchange Agent of an Old Certificate or Certificates, together with a properly completed letter of transmittal covering such Old Shares, will be entitled to receive in respect of such Old Shares, subject to Section 1.5(f):

(i) a certificate or certificates representing 0.5 of a New Share for each Old Share formerly represented by such Old Certificate or Certificates in accordance with Section 1.2;

(ii) either (a) a depositary receipt or receipts representing Depositary Shares representing interests in $31.10 liquidation preference of Public Preferred Stock for each Old Share formerly represented by such Old Certificate or Certificates in respect of the Redemption or (b) if the Underwriting Alternative with respect to the Depositary Shares is consummated, a cash payment equal to the Depositary Share Proceeds Amount in respect of the Redemption;

(iii) either (a) $15.55 principal amount of Series A Debentures for each Old Share formerly represented by such Old Certificate or Certificates in respect of the Redemption or (b) if the Underwriting Alternative with respect to the Series A Debentures is consummated, a cash payment equal to the Series A Debenture Proceeds Amount in respect of the Redemption;

(iv) either (a) $15.55 principal amount of Series B Debentures for each Old Share formerly represented by such Old Certificate or Certificates in respect of the Redemption or (b) if the Underwriting Alternative with respect to the Series B Debentures is consummated, a cash payment equal to the Series B Debenture Proceeds Amount in respect of the Redemption; and

(v) a cash payment of $25.80 for each Old Share formerly represented by such Old Certificate or Certificates in respect of the Redemption (the cash and/or securities distributed pursuant to clauses (i) through (v), collectively, the "Recapitalization Consideration").

Until so surrendered, each Old Certificate or Certificates formerly representing Old Shares shall, after the Effective Time, represent for all purposes only the right to receive such Recapitalization Consideration.

(c) If any portion of the Recapitalization Consideration is to be paid to a person other than the registered holder of the Old Shares formerly represented by the Old Certificate or Certificates so surrendered in exchange therefor, it shall be a condition to such payment that the Old Certificate or Certificates so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be iii proper form for transfer and that the person requesting such payment shall pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other taxes required as a result of such payment to a person other than the registered holder of such Old Shares or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

(d) In the event any Old Certificate or Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit to that fact by the person claiming such certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Old Certificate or Certificates the Recapitalization Consideration deliverable in respect thereof in accordance with this Article I. When authorizing such issue of the Recapitalization Consideration in exchange therefor, the Company may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance there, require the person claiming ownership of such lost, stolen or destroyed Old Certificate or Certificates to give the Company a bond in such sum as it may direct, or otherwise indemnify the Company in a manner satisfactory to it, against any claim that may be made against the Company with respect to the Old Certificate or Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

(e) After the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers of Old Shares. If, after the Effective Time, Old Certificate or Certificates are presented to the Company or its transfer agent, such Old Certificate or Certificates shall be canceled and exchanged for the Recapitalization Consideration provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth, in this Article I. All Recapitalization Consideration to be distributed pursuant to this Section 1.5, if unclaimed on the first anniversary of the Effective Time, shall be released and paid by the Exchange Agent to the Company, after which time persons entitled thereto may look, subject to applicable escheat and other similar laws, only to the Company for payment thereof.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement:

(i) No certificates, debentures or scrip representing fractional New Shares, depositary receipts representing fractional Depositary Shares (based upon each whole Depositary Share representing interests in $25 liquidation preference of Public Preferred Stock) or fractional Debentures shall be issued as part of the Recapitalization, and such fractional interests will not entitle the beneficial or record owner thereof to any rights of a stockholder or creditor of the Company.

(ii) As promptly as practicable following the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall determine the excess of (x) the number of whole New Shares into which all of the Old Shares will be reclassified and converted pursuant to Section 1.2 over (y) the aggregate number of whole New Shares to be distributed to holders of Old Shares pursuant to Section 1.5 (such excess being referred to herein as the "Excess New Shares"); and if the Underwriting Alternative has not been elected with respect to the Depositary Shares, the Series A Debentures and/or the Series B Debentures, as the case may be, or, if elected has not been consummated for any reason at or prior to the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall also determine, as appropriate, (I) the excess of (a) the number of whole Depositary Shares representing interests in shares of Public Preferred Stock issuable upon Redemption in accordance with Article FOURTH, Part I.D, Section 6 of the Restated Certificate with respect to the Redeemable Preferred Stock into which the Old Shares will be reclassified and converted pursuant to Section 1.2(a) over (b) the aggregate number of whole Depositary Shares representing interests in shares of Public Preferred Stock to be distributed to holders of Old Shares pursuant to Section 1.5 (such excess being referred to herein as the "Excess Depositary Shares"); (II) the excess of (a) the number of whole Series A Debentures issuable upon Redemption in accordance with Article FOURTH, Part I.D, Section 6 of the Restated Certificate with respect to the Redeemable Preferred Stock into which the Old Shares will be reclassified and converted pursuant to Section 1.2(a) over (b) the aggregate number of whole Series A Debentures to be distributed to holders of Old Shares pursuant to Section 1.5 (such excess being referred to herein as the "Excess Series A Debentures"); and/or (III) the excess of (a) the number of whole Series B Debentures issuable upon Redemption in accordance with Article FOURTH, Part I.D, Section 6 of the Restated Certificate with respect to the Redeemable Preferred Stock into which the Old Shares will be reclassified and converted pursuant to Section 1.2(a) over (b) the aggregate number of whole Series B Debentures to be distributed to holders of Old Shares pursuant to Section 1.5 (such excess being referred to herein as the "Excess Series B Debentures" and, together with the Excess New Shares, the Excess Depositary Shares and/or the Excess Series A Debentures, as applicable, collectively, the "Excess Securities"). As soon after the Effective Time as practicable taking into account market conditions based on consultations with the Company, the Exchange Agent, as agent for the holders of Old Shares, shall sell the Excess Securities at then prevailing prices on the principal national securities exchange, automated quotation system or other trading market (the "Applicable Exchange") on which the relevant Excess Securities are listed or admitted for trading (which shall be the NYSE in the case of the New Shares), all in the manner provided in paragraph (iii) of this Section.

(iii) The sale of the Excess Securities by the Exchange Agent shall be executed on an Applicable Exchange through one or more member firms of such Applicable Exchange and shall be executed in round lots to the extent practicable. Until the net proceeds of such sale or sales have been distributed to the holders of Old Shares, the Exchange Agent will hold such proceeds in trust for the holders of Old Shares (the "Excess Securities Trust"). Until distributed as provided below, the Excess Securities Trust shall be invested, as directed by the Company, in Permitted Securities and any net earnings with respect thereto shall be paid to the Company. The Company shall pay all commissions, transfer taxes and other out-of-pocket transaction costs, including the expenses and compensation of the Exchange Agent, incurred in connection with such sale of the Excess Securities. The Exchange Agent shall determine the portion of the Excess Securities Trust to which each holder of Old Shares shall be entitled, if any, by (w) multiplying the amount of the aggregate net proceeds comprising the Excess Securities Trust attributable to the sale of Excess New Shares by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the fractional New Share interest to which such holder of Old Shares would be entitled but for the application of Section 1.5(f)(i) and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of fractional New Share interests to which all holders of Old Shares would be entitled but for the application of Section 1.5(f)(i); and if the Underwriting Alternative has not been elected with respect to the Depositary Shares, the Series A Debentures and/or the Series B Debentures, as the case may be, or, if elected has not been consummated for any reason at or prior to the Effective Time, as appropriate, by (x) multiplying the amount of the aggregate net proceeds comprising the Excess Securities Trust attributable to the sale of Excess Depositary Shares by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the fractional Depositary Share interest to which such holder of Old Shares would be entitled but for the application of Section 1.5(t)(i) and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of fractional Depositary Share interests to which all holders of Old Shares would be entitled but for the application of Section 1.5(f)(i); (y) multiplying the amount of the aggregate net proceeds comprising the Excess Securities Trust attributable to the sale of Excess Series A Debentures by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the fractional Series A Debenture interest to which such holder of Old Shares would be entitled but for the application of Section 1.5(f)(i) and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of fractional Series A Debenture interests to which all holders of Old Shares would be entitled but for the application of Section 1.5(f)(i); and (z) multiplying the amount of the aggregate net proceeds comprising the Excess Securities Trust attributable to the sale of Excess Series B Debentures by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the fractional Series B Debenture interest to which such holder of Old Shares would be entitled but for the application of Section 1.5(f)(i) and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of fractional Series B Debenture interests to which all holders of Old Shares would be entitled but for the application of Section 1.5(f)(i).

(iv) As soon as practicable after the determination of the total amount of cash, if any, to be paid to holders of Old Shares in lieu of any fractional New Share and, if applicable, Depositary Share interests, Series A Debenture interests and/or Series B Debenture interests, the Exchange Agent shall make available such amounts to such holders of Old Shares; provided, however, that such amounts shall be paid to each holder of Old Shares only upon surrender of such holder's Old Certificate or Certificates together with a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal and any other required documents. All cash in lieu of fractional interests to be paid pursuant to this Section 1.5(f), if unclaimed on the first anniversary of the Effective Time, shall be released and paid by the Exchange Agent to the Company, after which time persons entitled thereto may look, subject to applicable escheat and other similar laws, only to the Company for payment thereof.

(g) No interest shall be paid or accrued on any portion of the Recapitalization Consideration or cash in lieu of fractional interests. No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the Effective Time with respect to New Shares with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Old Certificate or Certificates with respect to the New Shares such holder is entitled to receive until the holder of such Old Certificate or Certificates shall surrender the same in accordance with this Section 1.5 and unless such holder is a record holder of such New Shares on such record date.

Section 1.6 Other Issuances. In conjunction with the consummation of the Recapitalization, the Company shall issue the shares described in this Section 1.6.

(b) The number of shares of ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock to be so issued and credited as contemplated by subsection (a) shall initially be 17,675,345, which is equal to the product of (i) 0.5, (ii) 55/45ths, (iii) the "Fully Diluted Old Shares" immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (iv) 0.9999. The "Fully Diluted Old Shares" immediately prior to the Effective Time shall equal 28,926,185. The total number of shares of ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock to be so issued and credited is subject to increase (in accordance with Section 1.10) up to an amount equal to the sum of (i) 17,675,345 plus (ii) the Additional Shares (as defined in Section 1.10). Such total number of shares, including to the extent, if any, so increased, is referred to as the "Final Number."

(c) The ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock shall consist of (i) Class 1 ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company, with a fixed dollar dividend in a dollar amount (the "Dollar Amount") that is equal to 7.00%, or such lesser percentage that may be agreed to by the Company and the ESOP Trustee prior to the Effective Time, of the per share price at which the Class 1 ESOP Preferred Stock is issued to the ESOP Trustee at the Effective Time (the "Initial Price"), and having the rights, powers and privileges set forth in the Restated Certificate (the "ESOP Preferred"), and (ii) Class 2 ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company having the rights, powers and privileges set forth in the Restated Certificate (the "Supplemental ESOP Preferred").

(d) At the Effective Time, the Company shall issue to the ESOP Trustee in accordance with a stock purchase agreement and amendment in form and substance as.set forth on Schedule 1.6(d) (as so amended, the "ESOP Stock Purchase Agreement"), a number of shares of ESOP Preferred (the "Initial Shares") equal to the Year 1 Release Shares (as defined), divided by the Year 1 Decimal (as defined).

(i) The term "Year 1 Release Shares" shall mean the product of

(x) 17,675,345, (y) a fraction (the "First Year Fraction") having a numerator equal to the number of days from the Effective Time to December 31, 1994 and a denominator equal to 2,099 (which approximates the number of days in the 69 months after the Effective Time), and

(z) 0.7815 (the "Class 1 Decimal").

(ii) The term "Year 1 Decimal" shall mean one minus the product of

(xx) the Dollar Amount as a percentage (expressed as a decimal) of the Initial Price and

(yy) 5.25.

The Year 1 Release Shares shall be released from the ESOP suspense account and allocated to the accounts of ESOP participants as of December 31, 1994. The balance of the Initial Shares (the "Year 1 Remaining Shares") shall be released from the ESOP suspense account and allocated to the accounts of ESOP participants in level installments for each full plan year (and prorated for the quarter ending March 31, 2000) in the period from January 1, 1995 through March 31, 2000.

As of December 31, 1994, there shall be credited to the accounts of Supplemental ESOP participants a number of shares of Supplemental ESOP Preferred equal to the product of

(aa) 17,675,345,

(bb) the First Year Fraction, and

(cc) one minus the Class 1 Decimal.

(e) At or about the 365th day following the Effective Time (the "Measuring Date") and at or about the next four following anniversaries of the Measuring Date (each a "Measuring Date Anniversary"), the Company shall negotiate in good faith with the ESOP Trustee to reach an agreement under which the Company shall issue to the ESOP Trustee shares of ESOP Preferred at an agreed-upon price per share (for each applicable plan year, the "Purchase Price"). If such agreement is reached within 30 days of the Measuring Date or within 30 days of any Measuring Date Anniversary, then, within five days thereafter, the Company shall sell to the ESOP Trustee, and the ESOP Trustee shall purchase from the Company, pursuant to an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit B to the ESOP Stock Purchase Agreement, a number of shares of ESOP Preferred (with respect to each such year, the "Subsequent Shares"), which number of shares shall equal, for each such plan year, the Subsequent Year Release Shares (as defined) divided by the Subsequent Year Decimal (as defined).

(i) The term "Subsequent Year Release Shares" shall mean, for each such plan year, the excess of

(xx) the product of

(A) 12/69ths of the Final Number and

(B) the Class 1 Decimal, over

(yy) the number of Year I Remaining Shares and Subsequent Year Remaining Shares (as defined below) (collectively, "Tail Shares") scheduled to be released in such plan year. (ii) The term "Subsequent Year Decimal" shall be calculated separately for each such plan year and shall mean one minus the product of

(yy) a fraction (expressed as a decimal) having a numerator equal to the Dollar Amount and a denominator equal to the Purchase Price for the plan year in question, and

(zz) the number of years and fractional years from the end of the plan year for which such shares are being issued to March 31, 2000.

The Subsequent Year Release Shares for each such plan year shall be released from the ESOP suspense account and allocated to the accounts of ESOP participants as of the end of such plan year. The balance of the Subsequent Shares for such plan year (the "Subsequent Year Remaining Shares") shall be released from the ESOP suspense account and allocated to the accounts of ESOP participants in level installments for each full plan year (and prorated for the quarter ending March 31, 2000) remaining in the period from the January 1 immediately following such plan year through March 31, 2000.

For each of the second through sixth plan years of the Supplemental ESOP, there shall be credited to the accounts of Supplemental ESOP participants shares of Supplemental ESOP Preferred equal to the product of (aa) tz/69ths of the Final Number and (bb) the decimal equal to one minus the Class 1 Decimal.

(f) Commencing not later than December 1, 1999, the Company shall negotiate in good faith with the ESOP Trustee to reach an agreement under which the Company shall issue to the ESOP Trustee shares of ESOP Preferred at an agreed.upon price (the "Purchase Price" for such year). If such agreement is reached, then on the first business day in the year 2000, the Company shall sell to the ESOP Trustee, and the ESOP Trustee shall purchase from the Company, pursuant to an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit B to the ESOP Stock Purchase Agreement, a number of shares of ESOP Preferred ("Final Year Shares"), which number shall equal the excess of

(A) the product of

(xx) the Final Number, (yy) a fraction (the "Final Fraction") equal to one minus the sum of 20/23rds and the First Year Fraction, and

(zz) the Class 1 Decimal, over (B) the number of Tail Shares scheduled to be released in such plan year. For the seventh plan year of the Supplemental ESOP, there shall be credited to the accounts of Supplemental ESOP participants shares of Supplemental ESOP Preferred equal; to the product of (aa) the Final Number, (bb) the Final Fraction and (cc) a decimal equal to one minus the Class 1 Decimal.

(g) The Company may, with the consent of the Unions, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, make all or any part of the sales of ESOP Preferred to the ESOP Trustee described above at any earlier date or dates, provided that the timing and amount of the release of such shares to the accounts of employees in the ESOPs contemplated by subsections (d), (e) and (f) above shall not be altered by the different date or dates of the sales. If any sale of Subsequent Shares or Final Year Shares is not consummated in accordance with subsection (e) or (f) above (if not earlier consummated pursuant to this subsection (g)), a number of shares of Supplemental ESOP Preferred as is equal to the number of shares of ESOP Preferred not so sold shall be contributed to the ESOP (Part B) or credited to the accounts of participants in the Supplemental ESOP, as applicable. Such contribution or crediting shall be at such time or times such that the release (or crediting) of shares to the accounts of employees contemplated by subsections (d), (e) and (f) above shall not be altered. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (other than the provisions of this subsection (g) relating to "catch-up" dividends), the aggregate number of shares of ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock issued, credited, or contributed under this Section 1.6 and Section 1.10 shall not exceed, or be less than, the Final Shares. In the event that fixed dividends on the ESOP Preferred attributable to a particular acquisition loan are not paid when initially due because the Company lacks sufficient earnings and profits, and such earnings and profits later become available, it is possible that such dividends (the "skipped dividends") may then be paid on a catch-up basis, to the ESOP Trustee at a time when such catch-up dividends (when added to other fixed dividends payable on shares attributable to such loan) exceed the principal and interest then payable on the loan to which such dividends relate. In that event, compliance with the rules applicable to the ESOP may require a portion of such catch-up dividends to be used to purchase New Shares rather than pay principal or interest on such acquisition loan. If such purchase causes the New Shares and ESOP Preferred allocated to participants in that year to exceed the number of shares that would have been allocable absent payment of the catch-up dividend, then, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1.6, the parties agree that they shall negotiate in good faith to determine whether there is a manner in which the ESOP and the Supplemental ESOP can be amended so that, in subsequent years, allocations to participants can be reduced in a manner that results in participants achieving the same economic position that would have resulted if no such skipped dividends had occurred; and if the result described in the preceding clause of this sentence can be achieved without material detriment to any participant (in relation to the econonuc position such participant would have enjoyed had the skipped dividend not occurred) and without interference with the general objectives of the ESOP program, then the Company may, with the consent of the Unions as to the satisfaction of the standards set forth in this sentence, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, adopt appropriate amendments to this Agreement, the ESOP and Supplemental ESOP to effectuate the intent of this sentence. Achievement of the goal described in the preceding sentence may require issuance of fewer shares of ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock in future periods than would have otherwise been the case (because of the ESOP's unexpected early acquisition of New Shares). All disputes concerning whether the Unions reasonably withheld a consent in accordance with the provisions of this subsection (g) shall be resolved in accordance with the arbitration procedures described in Section 11.2(b)(ii)(G)-(J) of the ESOP.

(h) In consideration of each issuance by the Company of the shares of ESOP Preferred to the ESOP Trust, the ESOP Trustee, on behalf of the ESOP Trust, shall (y) pay to the Company an amount of cash equal to the aggregate par value of the shares of ESOP Preferred so issued and (z) execute and deliver a promissory note, in the aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate ,.purchase price for the ESOP Preferred so issued less the amount paid pursuant to clause (y), in substantially the form set forth on Exhibit A to the ESOP Stock Purchase Agreement (each, an "ESOP Note").

(i) In addition, the Company shall also issue and contribute to the ESOP Trust at the Effective Time:

(x) One (1) share of Class P ESOP Voting Junior Preferred Stock, par value 50.01 per share, of the Company having the rights, powers and privileges set forth in the Restated Certificate (the "Class P Voting Preferred");

(y) One (1) share of Class M ESOP Voting Junior Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company having the rights, powers and privileges set forth in the Restated Certificate (the "Class M Voting Preferred"); and

(z) One (1) share of Class S ESOP Voting Junior Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company having the rights, powers and privileges set forth in the Restated Certificate (the "Class S Voting Preferred" and, together with the Class P Voting Preferred and the Class M Voting Preferred, collectively, the "ESOP Voting Preferred Stocks").

In consideration of the issuance by the Company of the ESOP Voting Preferred Stocks to the ESOP Trust pursuant to this subsection (i) and (if and to the extent so issued to the ESOP Trustee and if required by Delaware law) the issuance by the Company of the Supplemental ESOP Preferred pursuant to subsections (d), (e) and (f) or (g) above, the ESOP Trustee, on behalf of the ESOP Trust, shall pay to the Company an amount of cash equal to the aggregate par value of the shares of ESOP Voting Preferred Stocks and Supplemental ESOP Preferred so issued.

(j) In addition, the Company shall also issue and contribute to the Supplemental ESOP Trust (together with the ESOP Trust, the "ESOP Trusts"), at the times provided for in the Supplemental ESOP, an aggregate (to give effect to the 0.5 Common Stock exchange ratio) of: .

(i) a number of shares of Class P Voting Preferred Stock equal to the product of (aa) 55/45ths, (bb) .4623, (cc) one half of the Fully Diluted Old Shares and (dd) .9999, minus one (1.0);

(ii) a number of shares of Class M Voting Preferred Stock equal to the product of (aa) 55/45ths, (bb) .3713, (cc) one half of the Fully Diluted Old Shares and (dd) .9999, minus one (1.0); and

(iii) a number of shares of Class S Voting Preferred Stock equal to the product of (aa) 55/45ths, (bb) .1664, (cc) one half of the Fully Diluted Old Shares and (dd) .9999, minus one (1.0).

If, pursuant to Section 1.10 and this Section 1.6, the Company is required to sell, contribute and/or credit on a book entry basis Additional Shares (as defined in Section 1.10(b)), then, ratably over the 69 months following the Effective Time, the Company shall also contribute to the ESOP Trust or the Supplemental ESOP Trust, as appropriate, an aggregate of:

(aa) a number of shares of Class P Voting Preferred Stock equal to the product of .4623 and the number of such Additional Shares:

(bb) a number of shares of Class M Voting Preferred Stock equal to the product of .3713 and the number of Additional Shares; and

(cc) a number of shares of Class S Voting Preferred Stock equal to the product of .1664 and the number of Additional Shares.

(k) The Company shall not issue any shares of any class of ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock or ESOP Voting Preferred Stock (collectively the "ESOP Preferred Stocks" or "ESOP Preferred Stock") other than in accordance with the terms of Sections 1.6 and 1.10 hereof and the ESOPs.

(1) The ESOP program is designed to deliver equity ownership and voting power to the employee groups in pre-negotiated proportions and at a pre-negotiated pace. If and to the extent that, despite the best and cooperative efforts of the Unions and the Company, the tax qualified ESOP cannot be implemented in all material respects or the non-qualified Supplemental ESOP cannot be implemented in all material respects and without income tax (excluding the employee portion of FICA, FUTA and Medicare taxes) to participants prior to actual distributions being made, appropriate arrangements will be made to effectuate in all material respects the delivery of equity ownership and voting power in the agreed-upon proportions and at the agreed-upon pace and to accomplish the purposes contemplated by the ESOP program described in Schedules 1.6(a)(i)-(iv) and (d). As used herein, the phrase "appropriate arrangements" shall not (i) require the expenditure of any material amount of funds by the Company or the issuance of securities to the ESOP Trusts representing a greater proportion of the equity value or voting power of the Company than that contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) result in the diminution of the equity value or voting power of the New Shares held by the stockholders of the Company other than the ESOP Trusts.

(m) In accordance with subscription agreements in form and substance as set forth on Schedule 1.6(m) (the "Class I Preferred Stock Subscription Agreement"), the Company shall issue one (1) share of Class I Junior Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company having the rights, powers and privileges set forth in the Restated Certificate (the "Class I Preferred") to each of the persons identified on Schedule 2.3(ii) as the initial "Independent Directors," provided that each initial Independent Director shall have paid to the Company an amount of cash equal to the par value of the share of Class I Preferred to be so issued.

(n) In accordance with a subscription agreement in form and substance as set forth on Schedule 1.6(n) (the "Class Pilot MEC Preferred Stock Subscription Agreement"), the Company shall issue one (1) share of Class Pilot MEC Junior Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company having the rights, powers and privileges set forth in the Restated Certificate (the "Class Pilot MEC Preferred") to the United Air Lines Master Executive Council of ALPA (the "MEC"), provided that the MEC shall have paid to the Company an amount of cash equal to the aggregate par value of the share of Class Pilot MEC Preferred to be so issued.

(o) In accordance with a subscription agreement in form and substance as set forth on Schedule 1.6(o) (the "Class IAM Preferred Stock Subscription Agreement"), the Company shall issue one (1) share of Class IAM Junior Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company having the rights, powers and privileges set forth in the Restated Certificate (the "Class IAM Preferred") to the IAM or its designee, provided that the IAM or such designee shall have paid to the Company an amount of cash equal to the aggregate par value of the share of Class IAM Preferred to be so issued.

(p) In accordance with a subscription agreement inform and substance asset forth on Schedule 1.6(p)(i) (the "Class ▇▇▇ Preferred Stock Subscription Agreement"), the Company shall issue three (3) shares of Class ▇▇▇ Junior Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company having the rights, powers and privileges set forth in the Restated Certificate (the "Class ▇▇▇ Preferred") as follows: (i) two (2) shares to the person identified as the Salaried and Management Director on Schedule 2.3(ii) or a replacement director identified in accordance with the nomination procedures in Schedule 1.6(p)(ii) (the "▇▇▇ Director), and (ii) one (1) share to an additional Class ▇▇▇ stockholder, defined in Schedule 1.6(p)(i) as the Designated Stockholder, provided that such persons shall have paid to the Company an amount of cash equal to the aggregate par value of the shares of Class ▇▇▇ Preferred to be so issued.

(q) If, due to limitations of Section 415 of the Internal Revenue Code or due to the issuance of Additional Shares, the respective Employee Groups (as defined in the ESOP) are prevented from reasonably achieving the contemplated allocations among and within their respective Employee Groups, the parties agree to cooperate to modify the Class 1 Decimal with respect to sales contemplated by Section 1.6(e) and Section 1.6(t) and to make appropriate conforming modifications to the ESOP, Supplemental ESOP and all related instruments if so requested by the Company, ALPA or the IAM. Such modifications shall maximize the Class 1 Decimal consistent with achieving with a high degree of certainty that the limits of the Internal Revenue Code Section 415(c)(6) shall not be exceeded (which condition regarding Section 415(c)(6) may be waived by ALPA).

SECTION 1.7 Stock Options. Each employee stock option to purchase Old Shares granted under any employee stock option or compensation plan or arrangement of the Company outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (an "Option") shall remain outstanding upon and following consummation of the Recapitalization, and each such Option, whether or not then vested or exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall (i) if provided by the terms thereof (or if accelerated in accordance with the relevant plan) become fully vested and exercisable at the Effective Time and (ii) after the Effective Time represent the right to receive, until the expiration thereof and in accordance with its terms, in exchange for the aggregate exercise price for such Option, without interest, the Recapitalization Consideration with respect to each Old Share that such holder would have been entitled to receive had such holder exercised such Option in full immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(f) Each Union expressly acknowledges that (i) the preservation of the confidentiality of the Confidential Information has highly important commercial significance for the Company and (ii) its unauthorized disclosure could have serious and irreparable adverse commercial, financial and legal consequences for the Company.

(c) All amounts payable by the Company to either Union under this Section 10.4 shall be paid directly to such Union or directly to persons designated in writing by such Union as such Union may specify.

(d) To the extent that the Company shall make payments to, or on behalf of, either Union under this Section 10.4 and such Union is reimbursed by another source (or otherwise receives a refund of the amount paid), such Union shall return such amounts to the Company to the extent of such reimbursement (or refund).

(e) The Company (the "Indemnitor") shall indemnify the Unions, their controlling persons, and their respective directors, trustees, officers, partners, affiliates, agents, representatives, advisors and employees (a "Union Indemnified Person") against and hold each Union Indemnified Person harmless from any and all liabilities, losses, claims, damages, actions, proceedings, investigations or threats thereof (all of the foregoing, and including expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees, disbursements and other charges) incurred in connection with the defense thereof, except as set forth below, being referred to as "Liabilities") based upon, relating to or arising out of the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, the underwriting described in Section 1.11 hereof); provided, however, that the Indemnitor shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Liability arises out of any inaccurate information supplied by any such Union Indemnified Person specifically for inclusion in the proxy materials related to such transactions or any other filings made by the Company or any Union Indemnified Person with any federal or state governmental agency in connection therewith (including without limitation the prospectuses relating to the underwriting described in Section 1.11 hereof) or if any such Liability is finally judicially determined, not subject to further appeal, to have resulted from bad faith, willful misconduct or negligence on such Union Indemnified Person's part. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, "Liabilities" shall not include any losses, claims, damages or expenses (including attorneys' fees, disbursements and other charges) based upon, relating to or arising out of any action, claim, proceeding, investigation or threat thereof (i) brought by a Union against the other Union, (ii) brought by any employee of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company, as such, represented by a Union or any member of a Union (whether or not an employee of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company), in his or her capacity as such, if, and only if, the underlying action, claim, proceeding or threat is made against (1) his or her Union or (2) against the other Union, (iii) brought by any Union or any Union Indemnified Person against the Company or any controlling persons, directors, officers, partners, agents, representatives, advisors or employees of the Company (a "Company Related Person") or by the Company or any Company Related Person against any Union or Union Indemnified Person or (iv) which arise primarily as a result of acts by a Union Indemnified Person following the Effective Time.

(f) In connection with the Indemnitor's obligation to indemnify for expenses as set forth above in subsection (e) of this Section, the Indemnitor further agrees to reimburse each Union Indemnified Person for all such expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees, disbursements and other charges) as they are incurred by such Union Indemnified Person, provided, however, that if a Union Indemnified Person is reimbursed hereunder for any such expenses, such reimbursement of expenses shall be refunded to the extent it is finally judicially determined, not subject to further appeal, that the Union Indemnified Person is not entitled to indemnification by reason of the proviso clause in the first sentence or the last sentence of subsection (e) of this Section. The Company shall not be required to reimburse any Union Indemnified Person for the reasonable attorney's fees, disbursements or other charges of more than one counsel (plus local counsel, if appropriate), or of more than one counsel (plus local counsel, if appropriate) for any one Union (together with Union Indemnified Persons who are controlling persons, directors, officers, partners, affiliates, agents, representatives, advisors and employees of such Union) who can be represented by common counsel so long as no conflict of interest or different or additional colorable defenses are reasonably believed by such Indemnified Persons to exist between or among them relative to the claims asserted.

(g) Promptly after receipt by a Union Indemnified Person of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, proceeding or investigation in respect of which indemnity or reimbursement may be sought as provided in this Section, such Union Indemnified Person will notify the Indemnitor in writing of the receipt or commencement thereof, but the failure to so notify shall not relieve the Indemnitor from any obligation or liability which it may have pursuant to this Section or otherwise except to the extent that the Indemnitor is materially prejudiced thereby. In case any such action, proceeding or investigation is brought or threatened against a Union Indemnified Person, the Indemnitor will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel selected by the Indemnitor and approved by the Union Indemnified Person (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld). After notice from the Indemnitor to such Union Indemnified Person of its election to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnitor will not be liable to such Union Indemnified Person for any legal expense subsequently incurred for services rendered by any other counsel retained by such Union Indemnified Person in connection with the defense unless such Union Indemnified Person, in the opinion of its counsel, has colorable defenses which are different from or in addition to defenses available to the Indemnitor or the Indemnitor has an interest which conflicts with the interests of such Union Indemnified Person and which makes separate representation advisable, in which event all legal expenses of such Union Indemnified Person (subject to the last sentence of subsection (f) above) shall continue to be paid by the Indemnitor. Notwithstanding. Section 10.4(f), the indemnification provided for in this Section 10.4 shall include reimbursement for all expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees, disbursements and other charges) incurred by Union Indemnified Persons to enforce their rights under this Section 10.4. The Indemnitor shall not settle any action, claim, proceeding or investigation which is the subject of this Section 10.4 without the prior written approval of the Union Indemnified Person (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), unless such settlement involves solely the payment of money and the Indemnitor is not contesting any right of a Union Indemnified Person to receive. indemnification hereunder. References to Union Indemnified Persons shall in all cases include the controlling persons, directors, officers, affiliates, agents, representatives, advisors and employees of each Union Indemnified Person.

(h) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 10.4 is finally judicially determined, not subject to further appeal, to be unavailable to a Union Indemnified Person, then the Indemnitor shall, in lieu of indemnifying such Union Indemnified Person, contribute to the amount paid or payable in respect of any Liability by such Union Indemnified Person in such proportion as shall be fair and equitable after taking into account the relative benefits received by the parties, the relative fault of the parties and such other equitable considerations as any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the benefits received by a Union Indemnified Person that is an advisor shall not be deemed to exceed the amount of fees payable to such Union Indemnified Person. The rights accorded to the Indemnified Persons under this Section 10.4 shall be in addition to any rights that any Union Indemnified Person may have at common law, by separate agreement or otherwise.

(i) All rights to indemnification existing in favor of the present or former directors, officers, employees, fiduciaries and agents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company Indemnified Persons") as provided in the Company's Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws or other agreements or arrangements, or articles of incorporation or by-laws (or similar documents) or other agreements or arrangements of any Subsidiary as in effect as of the date hereof with respect to matters occurring at or prior to the Effective Time shall survive the Effective Time and shall continue in full force and effect.
