AIRCRAFT ADMINISTRATIVE AGREEMENT

The Manager is currently responsible for managing all the commercial aircraft detailed on Schedule A hereto (the “Aircraft”). Contemporaneously herewith the Manager desires to sub-contract various servicing and administration responsibilities as detailed herein to the Administrator. Administrator will have the option to arrange for all the services described herein to be performed by a wholly owned operating subsidiary of Administrator.

Administrator shall perform the following services and duties with respect to the Aircraft (the “Services”):

(c)     the Administrator will assist the Manager in preparation of all management reports as may be required by the Manager from time to time.

Except as otherwise provided herein, the term of this Agreement shall commence upon the date hereof and shall continue until the disposition of the Aircraft and the Manager’s rights and obligations under the relevant Aircraft management agreement are no longer in full force and effect.

During the term of this Agreement with respect to each Aircraft the Manager will pay the Administrator on a monthly basis (or such other basis as detailed in Schedule A) such amounts as detailed in Schedule A (the “Administrative Fee”).

The Administrator or Manager may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the other party in the event that such party breaches this Agreement in any material respect, unless such breach is cured to the satisfaction of the non-breaching party prior to the expiration of such thirty (30) day notice period. In an action or arbitration arising from the termination of this Agreement, the party who terminated this Agreement shall have the burden of proving such termination to be lawful. Upon any such termination, the right of Administrator to any Administrative Fee shall be reduced by such reasonable amount as Manager certifies to Administrator that it is required to pay to a third party to perform the Services in lieu of the Administrator.

Each of the Administrator and Manager represents and warrants to the other that:

(a)     Manager hereby appoints Administrator as its sole and exclusive Administrator with respect to performing the Services for the Aircraft in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Administrator accepts such appointment and agrees to perform the Services in a commercially reasonable manner.

(b)     Manager acknowledges that Administrator is permitted to buy, sell, own and manage other aircraft for its own account and for others directly, regardless of whether any such other aircraft are similar to the Aircraft administered by Administrator pursuant to this Agreement.

(a)     Administrator shall perform the Services with due diligence and efficiency, and shall exercise such skill and care in accordance with recognized professional standards.

(b)     Manager shall furnish to the Administrator such information, documentation and reports relating to the Services as the Administrator may from time to time reasonably request. Administrator shall maintain and make available to Manager upon reasonable notice and at reasonable times for inspection and copying true and accurate records of its activities in connection with its performance of this Agreement.

(c)     Any information, documentation, reports, drawings, proposals, marketing plans or other documents prepared and furnished by Manager are strictly for the use of the Administrator in furtherance of the expressed objective of the Agreement. Unless specifically otherwise agreed upon the information contained in such documents is proprietary to Manager, and Manager grants a limited license to the Administrator for such purpose only. It is agreed that neither the Administrator nor any affiliate or agent shall copy, publish or otherwise disseminate or use any

(d)     Manager hereby agrees that it will make available to Administrator upon its request, at its own expense, on a timely basis and at all reasonable times, all relevant documentation, equipment, employees and consultants of Manager to the extent required or desirable for the performance of the Services.

(e)     Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, in no event shall Administrator be liable for any special, indirect, incidental or consequential damages, such as but not limited to any loss of anticipated profits or revenue, loss of use, non-operation or increased expense of operation of any aircraft or other equipment or facility, cost of capital, claims of customers, or failure or delay in achieving anticipated profits or product or in consummating any transaction. The above limitation does not apply if and to the extent that Manager demonstrates that damage has primarily resulted from gross negligence or willful misconduct of Administrator as a company.

(f)     Manager shall release, defend, hold harmless and indemnify Administrator and its employees, officers, directors, agents and subcontractors from and against all claims, losses, damages and judgments, including costs and expenses incidental thereto (“Losses”), which may be suffered or claimed against them (or any of them) by third parties, arising out of or in any way connected with the performance by Administrator, its employees, officers, directors, agents and subcontractors of any Services or as a result of the use, operation, possession, control, maintenance, repair or storage of the Aircraft, and whether or not arising in tort or occasioned in whole or in part by the fault or negligence of Administrator, its agents or affiliates. The above does not apply if and to the extent that Manager demonstrates that Losses have primarily resulted from gross negligence or willful misconduct of Administrator as a company.

(g)     Administrator shall not be liable for any loss or damage resulting from delay in the performance of any Services caused by strikes or other labor disputes, riots, theft, fire or other accidents, inability to obtain necessary assistance or equipment, restrictions or limitations set or imposed by any (semi-) governmental entity or agency, adverse weather conditions or other acts of God or any other cause which is beyond the reasonable control of Administrator. Administrator agrees to notify Manager on the occurrence of any of these events.

Each of the parties to this Agreement hereby irrevocably consent that any legal action related in any way to this Agreement may be brought in any court in Ireland. By execution and delivery of this Agreement, the parties hereby irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of such courts, and irrevocably waive any objection to the laying of venue of any such legal action, and further irrevocably waive any claim that any such court is not a convenient forum for any such action. The parties agree to indemnify each other from and against any and all costs, expenses, damages and liabilities (including reasonable outside counsel fees, allocated

The provisions of this Agreement shall bind and govern the rights of all parties hereto, and their respective affiliates, successors, assignees or bankruptcy trustees.

Except as set forth herein, Administrator shall have no authority to bind Manager or incur any liability for which any of the Manager may be responsible without the prior written consent of Manager. Administrator and Manager represent they are independent companies with their own corporate existence and Administrator is not a successor to the Manager.

(g)     The waiver of any breach of any term or condition hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of any other or subsequent breach, whether of like or different nature.

Notwithstanding the foregoing restriction, Administrator may assign its right to an affiliated company.
