Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation
On October 4, 2011, American Airlines, Inc (American), a wholly-owned subsidiary of AMR
Corporation (AMR), and U.S. Bank Trust National Association, as subordination agent (the
Subordination Agent) and as pass through trustee under the pass through trust newly formed by
American (the Trustee), U.S. Bank National Association, as escrow agent (the Escrow Agent)
under the Escrow Agreement (as defined below), and U.S. Bank Trust National Association, as paying
agent (the Paying Agent) under the Escrow Agreement, entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the
Note Purchase Agreement). The Note Purchase Agreement, subject to certain terms and conditions,
provides for the future issuance by American of equipment notes (the Series A Equipment Notes) in
the aggregate principal amount of $725,694,000 to be secured by 43 Boeing aircraft (each, an
Aircraft and, collectively, the Aircraft) owned by American as specified in the Note Purchase
Agreement. Pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement and the form of Participation Agreement (Form
of Participation Agreement) and form of Indenture and Security Agreement (Form of Indenture),
each attached as an exhibit thereto, upon the financing of each Aircraft, the Trustee will enter
into a Participation Agreement substantially in the form of the Form of Participation Agreement and
will purchase the Series A Equipment Notes to be issued by American under an Indenture and Security
Agreement substantially in the form of the Form of Indenture (each, an Indenture and
collectively, the Indentures) to be entered into by American and U.S. Bank Trust National
Association, as loan trustee (the Loan Trustee), with respect to such Aircraft. The payment
obligations of American under the Series A Equipment Notes will be fully and unconditionally
guaranteed by AMR.
Each Indenture contemplates the issuance of Series A Equipment Notes bearing interest at the
rate of 8.625% per annum, in the aggregate principal amount (once all the Series A Equipment Notes
have been issued) equal to $725,694,000. The Series A Equipment Notes will be purchased by the
Trustee, using the proceeds from the sale of American Airlines Class A Pass Through Certificates,
Series 2011-2 (the Class A Certificates).
Pending the purchase of the Series A Equipment Notes, the proceeds from the sale of the Class
A Certificates were placed in escrow by the Trustee pursuant to the Escrow and Paying Agent
Agreement, dated as of October 4, 2011, among the Escrow Agent, the Paying Agent, the Underwriters
(as defined below) and the Trustee (the Escrow Agreement). The escrowed funds were deposited
with The Bank of New York Mellon (the Depositary) pursuant to the Deposit Agreement, dated as of
October 4, 2011, between the Escrow Agent and the Depositary.
The interest on the Series A Equipment Notes and the escrowed funds is payable semi-annually
on each April 15 and October 15, beginning on April 15, 2012. The principal payments on the Series
A Equipment Notes are scheduled for payment on April 15 and October 15 in certain years, beginning
on April 15, 2012. Final payment with respect to each Series A Equipment Note will be due,
depending on the Aircraft relating to such Series A Equipment Note, on October 15, 2017, October
15, 2019 or October 15, 2021. Maturity of the Series A Equipment Notes may be accelerated upon the
occurrence of certain events of default, including failure by American (in some cases after notice
or the expiration of a grace period, or both) to make payments under the applicable Indenture when
due or to comply with certain covenants, as well as certain bankruptcy events involving American.
The Series A Equipment Notes issued with respect to each Aircraft will be secured by a lien on such
Aircraft and also will be cross-collateralized by the other Aircraft financed pursuant to the Note
Purchase Agreement.
The Class A Certificates were registered for offer and sale pursuant to the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the Securities Act), under Americans and AMRs shelf registration statement on
Form S-3 (File Nos. 333-160646 and 333-160646-01) (the Registration Statement). The Class A
Certificates were sold pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, dated as of September 27, 2011,
among American, AMR and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Goldman, Sachs &
Co., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as representatives of

Underwriting Agreement
September 27, 2011
To the Underwriters named in Schedule I hereto
Ladies and Gentlemen:

subsidiary of AMR Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the Guarantor and, together with
the Company, the Issuers), proposes that U.S. Bank Trust National Association, a national

Guarantor and the Trustee (the Basic Agreement, as supplemented by the Class A Trust Supplement,
being referred to herein as the Trust Agreement), issue and sell to the underwriters
named in Schedule I hereto (collectively, the Underwriters) the Class A Certificates, in
the aggregate amount and with the interest rate and final expected distribution date set forth on
Schedule B hereto on the terms and conditions stated herein and in Schedule II hereto.
The Class A Certificates will represent interests in the Companys 2011-2A Pass Through Trust

one series of equipment notes (the Series A Equipment Notes) to be issued by the Company
in connection with the financing of up to 43 aircraft owned by the Company (each, an
Aircraft and collectively, the Aircraft). The payment obligations of the
Company under each Series A Equipment Note will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the
Guarantor pursuant to a guarantee to be dated as of the Closing Time (as defined below) (the

pursuant to a Note Purchase Agreement, to be dated as of the Closing Time, among the Company, the
Trustee and U.S. Bank, as the Paying Agent and the Escrow Agent (the Note Purchase
Agreement). With respect to each Class A Certificate, the Escrow Agent will issue a receipt
to be attached to such Class A Certificate (each an Escrow Receipt) representing a
fractional undivided interest of the holder of such Class A Certificate in amounts deposited with
the Depositary on behalf of the Escrow Agent and will pay to such holders through the Paying Agent
interest accrued on the Deposits and received by the Paying Agent pursuant to the Deposit Agreement
at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to such Class A Certificate.
Certain amounts of interest payable on the Class A Certificates issued by the Class A Trust
will be entitled to the benefits of a liquidity facility. Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A. (the
Liquidity Provider) will enter into a revolving credit agreement with respect to the
Class A Trust (the Liquidity Facility), to be dated as of the Closing Time, for the
benefit of the holders of the Class A Certificates. The Liquidity Provider and the holders of the
Class A Certificates will be entitled to the benefits of an Intercreditor Agreement, to be dated as

a foreign corporation to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in
which such qualification is required, whether by reason of the ownership or leasing of

subsidiaries (as such term is defined in Rule 1-02 of Regulation S-X).

satisfaction of conditions precedent set forth in the Note Purchase Agreement and the

7
Participation Agreements) duly executed and delivered by the Company at or prior to the
applicable Closing Date. Each Operative Document to which an Issuer is, or is to be, a
party, when duly executed and delivered by such Issuer, assuming that such document
constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of each other party thereto, constitutes
or will constitute, as the case may be, a valid and binding obligation of such Issuer,
enforceable against such Issuer in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting
enforcement of creditors rights generally and by general principles of equity. The Basic
Agreement as executed is substantially in the form filed as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement and has been duly qualified under the TIA. When executed, authenticated, issued
and delivered in the manner provided for in the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, each
Escrow Receipt will be legally and validly issued and will be entitled to the benefits of

reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting enforcement of creditors rights
generally and by general principles of equity. The Class A Certificates, the Series A
Equipment Notes, the Escrow Receipts and the Operative Documents will conform in all
material respects to the descriptions thereof in the General Disclosure Package and the

except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other
similar laws affecting enforcement of creditors rights generally and by general principles
of equity; and the holders of the Class A Certificates will be entitled to the benefits of
the Trust Agreement.
(m) Equipment Notes are Valid and Binding Obligations. The Series A Equipment
Notes, when duly executed and delivered by the Company and when duly authenticated by the
Loan Trustee in accordance with the terms of the related Indentures, will be duly issued
under such Indentures and will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company,
enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms; and the holders thereof will
be entitled to the benefits of the related Indentures, except as may be limited by
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting
enforcement of creditors rights generally and by general principles of equity.
(n) Absence of Defaults and Conflicts. Neither Issuer is in violation of its
charter or by-laws or other constituting or organizational document or in default in the
performance or observance of any obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in
any contract, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan or credit agreement, note, lease or
other agreement or instrument to which such Issuer is a party or by which such Issuer may be
bound, or to which any of the property or assets of such Issuer is subject
(collectively, Agreements and Instruments), except for such defaults that
would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect and that would not
affect
8
the validity of the Series A Equipment Notes or the Class A Certificates; and the
execution and delivery by each Issuer of this Agreement, the Series A Equipment Notes and
the Operative Documents to which it is, or is to be, a party, the consummation by such
Issuer of the transactions herein and therein contemplated, and the compliance by such
Issuer with its obligations hereunder and thereunder and the terms hereof and thereof do not
and will not, whether with or without the giving of notice or passage of time or both,
conflict with or constitute a breach of, or default or a Repayment Event (as defined below)
under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any
property or assets of such Issuer pursuant to, the Agreements and Instruments (except for
such conflicts, breaches, defaults or Repayment Events or liens, charges or encumbrances
that, singly or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect and that would not affect the validity of the Series A Equipment Notes or the
Class A Certificates), or result in a violation of the provisions of the certificate of
incorporation or by-laws, as amended, or other constituting or organizational document of
such Issuer, or any applicable law, statute, rule, regulation, judgment, order, writ or
decree of any government, governmental instrumentality or court, domestic or foreign, having
jurisdiction over such Issuer or any of its assets, properties or operations, except, in
each case, for such conflicts, breaches, violations or defaults, that, singly or in the
aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect and that
would not affect the validity of the Series A Equipment Notes or the Class A Certificates.
As used herein, a Repayment Event means any event or condition which gives the holder of
any note, debenture or other evidence of indebtedness (or any person acting on such holders
behalf) the right to require the repurchase, redemption or repayment prior to the stated
maturity or date of mandatory redemption or repayment thereof of all or a portion of such
indebtedness by the Company or the Guarantor, as applicable.
(o) Absence of Labor Dispute. Other than as described in the General
Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, no labor dispute with the employees of the
Guarantor or any of its subsidiaries exists or, to the knowledge of the Company, is
imminent, which the Company expects to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(p) Absence of Proceedings. Other than as set forth in the General Disclosure
Package and the Final Prospectus, there is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or
investigation before or brought by any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or
foreign, now pending, or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened, against the Guarantor
or any of its subsidiaries which, in the judgment of the Company, is likely to result in a
Material Adverse Effect.
(q) Absence of Further Requirements. No consent, approval, authorization,
order or license of, or filing with or notice to, any government, governmental
instrumentality, regulatory body or authority or court, domestic or foreign, is required for
the valid authorization, issuance and delivery of the Class A Certificates and the Series A
Equipment Notes, for the valid authorization, execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement, the Series A Equipment Notes and the
9
Operative Documents by each Issuer
that is, or is to be, a party thereto, or for the consummation by each Issuer of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Series A Equipment Notes and the Operative
Documents to which such Issuer is, or is to be, a party, except (i) such as has been already
obtained or made, (ii) such as are required under the Securities Act or the Securities Act
Regulations or state securities laws in connection with the Registration Statement, and
(iii) filings or recordings with respect to the Aircraft with the Federal Aviation
Administration and registration with the International Registry and under the Uniform
Commercial Code as in effect in Delaware.
(r) Investment Company Act. Neither the Company nor the Guarantor is, nor upon
the issuance and sale of the Class A Certificates as contemplated by this Agreement and the
application of the net proceeds therefrom as described in the General Disclosure Package and
the Final Prospectus will be, an investment company or an entity controlled by an
investment company, as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the 1940 Act), nor will the Class A Trust or the escrow arrangements
relating to the Class A Trust contemplated by the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement be
required to register as an investment company as defined in the 1940 Act.
(s) Environmental Laws. There has been no storage, disposal, generation,
manufacture, refinement, transportation, handling or treatment of toxic wastes, medical
wastes, hazardous wastes or hazardous substances by the Company (or, to the knowledge of the
Company, any of its predecessors in interest), or at, upon or from any of the property now
or previously owned or leased by the Company in violation of, and the Company has no
liability under, any applicable law, ordinance, rule, regulation, order, judgment, decree or
permit or which would require remedial action under any applicable law, ordinance, rule,
regulation, order, judgment, decree or permit applicable to the Company, except for any
violation, liability or remedial action which would not have, or could not be reasonably
likely to have, singularly or in the aggregate with all such violations, liabilities and
remedial actions, a Material Adverse Effect; there has been no spill, discharge, leak,
emission, injection, escape, dumping or release of any kind by the Company onto such
property or into the environment surrounding such property of any toxic wastes, medical
wastes, solid wastes, hazardous wastes or hazardous substances due to or caused by the
Company or with respect to which the Company has knowledge, except for any such spill,
discharge, leak, emission, injection, escape, dumping or release which would not have or
would not be reasonably likely to have, singularly or in the aggregate with all such spills,
discharges, leaks, emissions, injections, escapes, dumpings and releases, a Material Adverse
Effect. The terms hazardous wastes, toxic wastes, hazardous substances and medical
wastes shall have the meanings specified in any applicable local, state, federal and
foreign laws or regulations with respect to environmental protection or human health. In
the ordinary course of its business, the Company conducts a periodic review of the effect of
any and all applicable foreign, federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to
the protection of human health and safety, the environment, and hazardous and toxic
substances and wastes, pollutants and contaminants (Environmental Laws) on the
business, operations and properties of the Company, in the course of which it identifies and
evaluates associated costs and liabilities (including, without limitation, any capital or
operating expenditures required
for clean-up, closure of properties or compliance with Environmental Laws or any
permit, license or approval, any related constraints on operating activities and any
10
potential liabilities to third parties). On the basis of such review, the Company has
reasonably concluded that such associated costs and liabilities have not had and would not,
singularly or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(t) ERISA. Each of the Guarantor and the Company is in compliance in all
material respects with all presently applicable provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, as amended, including the regulations and published interpretations
thereunder (ERISA); no reportable event (as defined in ERISA) has occurred with
respect to any pension plan (as defined in ERISA) for which either the Guarantor or the
Company would have any liability; neither the Guarantor nor the Company has incurred or
expects to incur liability under (A) Title IV of ERISA with respect to the termination of,
or withdrawal from, any pension plan or (B) Section 412 or 4971 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, including the regulations and published interpretations thereunder
(the Code); and each pension plan for which either the Guarantor or the Company
would have any liability that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code
is so qualified in all material respects and nothing has occurred, whether by action or by
failure to act, which either the Guarantor or the Company reasonably expects would cause the
loss of such qualification.
(u) Insurance. The Company carries, or is covered by, insurance in such
amounts and covering such risks as is adequate for the conduct of its business and the value
of its respective properties.
(v) Taxes. The Company has filed all federal, state and local income and
franchise tax returns required to be filed through the date hereof, except for such
exceptions as would not individually or collectively have a Material Adverse Effect, and has
paid all taxes due thereon, except such as are being contested in good faith by appropriate
proceedings, and no tax deficiency has been determined adversely to the Company which has
had, nor does the Company have any knowledge of any tax deficiency which, if determined
adversely to the Company, might have, a Material Adverse Effect.
(w) Internal Controls. The Company and the Guarantor (A) make and keep
accurate books and records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the
transactions and disposition of the assets of the Company and the Guarantor, and (B)
maintain internal accounting controls which provide reasonable assurance that (i)
transactions are executed in accordance with managements authorization, (ii) transactions
are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of their financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles and to maintain accountability for their
assets, (iii) access to their assets is permitted only in accordance with managements
authorization and (iv) the recorded accountability for their assets is compared with
existing assets at reasonable intervals. The Company and the Guarantor maintain a system of
internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the
Exchange Act) that has been designed by the Companys or the
Guarantors respective principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or
under their supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of
financial
11
reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Neither the Company nor the
Guarantor is aware of any material weaknesses in its internal control over financial
reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the Companys or the Guarantors
ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information. Since the date of
the latest audited financial statements included in the General Disclosure Package and the
Final Prospectus, there has been no change in the Companys or the Guarantors internal
control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, the Companys or the Guarantors internal control over financial
reporting.
(x) Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company and the Guarantor maintain
disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the
Exchange Act) that have been designed to ensure that material information relating to the
Company and the Guarantor, including their respective consolidated subsidiaries, is made
known to the Companys and the Guarantors principal executive officer and principal
financial officer by others within those entities; such disclosure controls and procedures
are effective.
(y) No Unlawful Payments. The Company has implemented compliance programs for
purposes of (i) informing the appropriate officers and employees of the Company and its
subsidiaries of the Companys policies against (1) the use of corporate funds for unlawful
contributions, gifts, entertainment or other unlawful expenses relating to political
activity, (2) direct or indirect unlawful payments to any foreign or domestic government
official or employee from corporate funds, (3) violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices
Act of 1977, as amended, and (4) making any bribes, rebates, payoffs, influence payments
kickbacks or other unlawful payments and (ii) requiring such officers and employees to
report to the Company any knowledge they may have of violations of the Companys policies
referred to above and no such reports have been made.
(z) No Brokerage Commission; Finders Fee. To the best of the Companys
knowledge after due inquiry, there are no contracts, agreements or understandings between
the Company and any person that would give rise to a valid claim against the Company or the
Underwriters for a brokerage commission, finders fee or other like payment in connection
with this offering.
(aa) Reporting Company. The Company is subject to the reporting requirements
of Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act.
(bb) Well-Known Seasoned Issuer. (A)(i) At the time of filing the Registration
Statement, (ii) at the time of the most recent amendment thereto for the purposes of
complying with Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act (whether such amendment was by
post-effective amendment, incorporated report filed pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act or form of prospectus), and (iii) at the time the Company or any person acting
on its behalf (within the meaning, for this clause only, of Rule 163(c) under the
Securities Act) made any offer relating to the Securities in reliance on the exemption
of Rule 163 under the Securities Act, each Issuer was a well-known seasoned issuer as
12
defined in Rule 405, including not having been an ineligible issuer as defined in Rule
405; and (B) at the time of filing the Original Registration Statement, at the earliest time
thereafter that the Company or another offering participant made a bona fide offer (within
the meaning of Rule 164(h)(2) under the Securities Act) of the Securities and at the date
hereof, neither Issuer was and neither Issuer is an ineligible issuer as defined in Rule
405.
(cc) Possession of Licenses and Permits. The Company possesses such permits,
licenses, approvals, consents and other authorizations (collectively, Licenses)
issued by the appropriate federal, state, local or foreign regulatory agencies or bodies and
third parties, governmental or otherwise, necessary to conduct the business now operated by
it as described in the General Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, except for such
failures to possess Licenses as would not, singly or in the aggregate, result in a Material
Adverse Effect; the Company is in compliance with the terms and conditions of all such
Licenses, except where the failure so to comply would not, singly or in the aggregate, have
a Material Adverse Effect; all of the Licenses are valid and in full force and effect,
except where the invalidity of such Licenses or the failure of such Licenses to be in full
force and effect would not, singly or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect;
and the Company has not received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or
modification of any such Licenses which, singly or in the aggregate, if the subject of an
unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, would result in a Material Adverse Effect.
(dd) Compliance with Money Laundering Laws. The operations of the Company and
its subsidiaries are and have been conducted at all times in material compliance with all
applicable financial recordkeeping and reporting requirements, including those of the Bank
Secrecy Act, as amended by Title III of the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing
Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (USA PATRIOT
Act), and the applicable anti-money laundering statutes of jurisdictions where the Company
and its subsidiaries conduct business, the rules and regulations thereunder and any related
or similar rules, regulations or guidelines, issued, administered or enforced by any
governmental agency (collectively, the Anti-Money Laundering Laws), and no action,
suit or proceeding by or before any court or governmental agency, authority or body or any
arbitrator involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries with respect to the Anti-Money
Laundering Laws is pending or, to the best knowledge of the Company, threatened.
(ee) OFAC. None of the Company, any of its subsidiaries or, to the knowledge
of the Company, any director, officer, agent, employee, affiliate or other person acting on
behalf of the Company or any of its subsidiaries is currently subject to any U.S. sanctions
administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Treasury Department
(OFAC); and the Company will not directly or indirectly use the proceeds of the sale of
the Securities, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any of its
subsidiaries, joint venture partners or other person, for the purpose of financing the
activities of any person currently subject to any U.S. sanctions administered by OFAC.

at least two full business days before the Closing Time. The certificates representing such
Class A Certificates (with attached Escrow Receipts), which may be in temporary form, will

they are to be delivered at the Closing Time (or such other location as may be specified for
that purpose in Schedule II hereto) not later than 10:00 A.M. on the business day prior to

(c) The Company will pay to the Representatives at the Closing Time for the accounts of

their terms
not otherwise specified in the basic prospectus relating to all offerings of pass through

all material required to be filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433(d)
within the time required by such rule. The Company will promptly transmit copies of the
Final Prospectus to the Commission for filing pursuant to Rule 424 and will furnish to the
Underwriters as many copies of the Final Prospectus as you shall reasonably request.
(b) During the period when a prospectus (or in lieu thereof, a notice referred to in
Rule 173(a) under the Securities Act (Rule 173(a)) relating to the Class A
Certificates is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, the Company will promptly
advise you of (i) the effectiveness of any amendment to the Registration Statement, (ii) the
transmittal to the Commission for filing of any supplement to the Final Prospectus or any
document that would as a result thereof be incorporated by reference in the Final
Prospectus, (iii) any request by the Commission for any amendment of the Registration

as possible the withdrawal thereof.
(c) If, at any time when a prospectus (or in lieu thereof, a notice referred to in Rule
173(a)) relating to the Class A Certificates is required to be delivered under the
Securities Act, any event occurs as a result of which the Final Prospectus as then amended
or supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any
material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading, or if it shall be necessary to amend or supplement the
Final Prospectus to comply with the Securities Act or the Securities Act Regulations, the
Company promptly will prepare and file with the Commission, subject to paragraph (d) of this
Section 3, an amendment or supplement which will correct such statement or omission or an
amendment or supplement which will effect such compliance and the Company will use its
reasonable efforts to have any such amendment to the Registration Statement or new
registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable (if it is not an automatic
shelf registration statement with
respect to the Class A Certificates). Neither your consent to, nor the Underwriters
delivery of, any such amendment or supplement shall constitute a waiver of any of the
conditions set forth in Section 4.
15
(d) At any time when a prospectus (or in lieu thereof, a notice referred to in Rule
173(a)) relating to the Class A Certificates is required to be delivered under the
Securities Act or the Securities Act Regulations, the Company will give you notice of its
intention to file any amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement
to the Final Prospectus, whether pursuant to the Exchange Act, the Securities Act or
otherwise, will furnish you with copies of any such amendment or supplement or other
documents proposed to be filed within a reasonable time in advance of filing, and will not
file any such amendment or supplement or other documents in a form to which you shall
reasonably object.

without charge, conformed copies of the Original Registration Statement and of all
amendments thereto, whether filed before or after such Registration Statement originally
became effective (including exhibits thereto and the documents incorporated therein by
reference) and the copies of the Original Registration Statement and each amendment thereto
furnished to the Underwriters will be identical to the electronically transmitted copies
thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by
Regulation S-T. So long as delivery of a Final Prospectus (or in lieu thereof, a notice
referred to in Rule 173(a)) by the Underwriter may be required by the Securities Act, the
Company will furnish as many copies of any Statutory Prospectus, the Final Prospectus and
any amendments thereof and supplements thereto as you may reasonably request and the Final
Prospectus and any amendments or supplements thereto furnished to each Underwriter will be
identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission
pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T or required under Rule
424(e).
(f) The Issuers shall use their reasonable efforts, in cooperation with the
Underwriters, to qualify the Class A Certificates for offering and sale under the applicable
securities laws of such states in the United States as the Underwriters may reasonably
designate and will maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required in connection
with the distribution of the Class A Certificates; provided, however, that the Issuers shall
not be obligated to file any general consent to service of process or to qualify as a
foreign corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction in which it is not so
qualified or to subject itself to taxation in respect of doing business in any jurisdiction
in which it is not otherwise so subject.
(g) The Company intends to use the proceeds received by it from the sale of the Series
A Equipment Notes in the manner to be indicated in the Final Prospectus under Use of
Proceeds.
(h) The Issuers shall cooperate with the Underwriters and use their reasonable efforts
to permit the Class A Certificates to be eligible for clearance and settlement through the
facilities of DTC.
(i) The Issuers, during the period when a Final Prospectus (or in lieu thereof, the
notice referred to in Rule 173(a)) relating to the Class A Certificates is required to be
delivered, will file all documents required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to
16
the Exchange Act within the time periods required by the Exchange Act and the Exchange Act
Regulations.
(j) The Company represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of each
Underwriter, and each Underwriter represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior
consent of the Company, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Class A
Certificates that would constitute an issuer free writing prospectus, as defined in Rule
433 or that would otherwise constitute a free writing prospectus as defined in Rule 405.
Any such free writing prospectus consented to by the Company and the Underwriters is
hereinafter referred to as a Permitted Free Writing Prospectus. The Company represents
that it has treated or agrees that it will treat each Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as
an issuer free writing prospectus, as defined in Rule 433, and has complied and will
comply with the requirements of Rule 433 as applicable to any Permitted Free Writing
Prospectus, including timely filing with the Commission where required, legending and record
keeping.
(k) Between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Time, the Company will not,
without your prior consent, offer, sell or enter into any agreement to sell any public debt
securities registered under the Securities Act (other than the Class A Certificates) or any
debt securities which may be sold in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements
of the Securities Act in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act and which are
marketed through the use of a disclosure document containing substantially the same
information as a prospectus for similar debt securities registered under the Securities Act.
(l) The Company shall issue at the Closing Time Class A Certificates that shall be
rated at least as high as the ratings for the Class A Certificates set forth in the Issuer
Free Writing Prospectus used by the Underwriters to confirm sales, the form of which shall
be agreed to between the Company and the Underwriters, from each nationally recognized
statistical rating organization, as such term is defined in Section 3(a)(62) of the
Exchange Act, named therein.
The Representatives agree that in the aggregative, the Class A Certificates will be widely
offered. Each Underwriter and each other member of the underwriting group that offers or sells
Class A Certificates agree that Class A Certificates offered by such Underwriter and such other
member of the underwriting group will be primarily offered in the United States to United States
persons. The term United States person shall have the meaning set forth in section 7701(a)(30)
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

If any condition specified in this Section 4 shall not have been fulfilled when and as
required to be fulfilled, other than by reason of any default by any Underwriter, such failure to
fulfill a condition may be waived by you, or this Agreement may be terminated by you by notice to
the Company at any time at or prior to the Closing Time, and such termination shall be without
liability of any party to any other party, except as provided in Sections 5, 6 and 8 hereof, which

relating to
review), (ix) any costs and expenses of the Issuers relating to investor presentations on any road
show undertaken in connection with the marketing of the Class A Certificates, (x) certain fees and
expenses of counsel for the Underwriters as heretofore agreed, and (xi) the fees and expenses, if

obligations under the Operative Documents and each of the other agreements and instruments referred
to therein.
20
If this Agreement is terminated by you in accordance with the provisions of Section 4 or
Section 9(i) hereof, the Issuers shall reimburse the Underwriters for all of their out-of-pocket
expenses, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Underwriters, incurred
by them in connection with the offering contemplated by this Agreement.
6. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Issuers, jointly and severally, agree to
indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter and each person who controls any Underwriter within
the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against
any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them
may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or other Federal or state statutory
law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) (1) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any
amendment to the Registration Statement), or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged
omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, or (2) arise out of or based upon any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the General Disclosure Package or in the
Final Prospectus or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or in any Issuer Free Writing
Prospectus, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading, and, in each case, agrees to reimburse each such
indemnified party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with
investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided,
however, that (i) neither Issuer shall be liable in any such case to the extent that any
such loss, claim, damage, or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon, and in
conformity with, written information relating to any Underwriter furnished to the Issuers by or on
behalf of such Underwriter specifically for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment
thereto) or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the General Disclosure Package or the Final
Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or made in those parts of the Registration
Statement constituting a Statement of Eligibility under the TIA of a trustee on Form T-1, and (ii)
neither Issuer shall be liable for any loss, liability or expense of any settlement or compromise
of or consent to entry of judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened litigation or any
pending or threatened governmental agency investigation or proceeding if such settlement or
compromise of or consent to entry of judgment with respect thereto is effected without the prior
written consent of the Issuers (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), except to the
extent that such consent is not
required pursuant to Section 6(d) hereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any
liability that the Issuers may otherwise have.
(b) Each Underwriter severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuers, each of
their directors, each of their officers who signed the Registration Statement, and each person who
controls an Issuer within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of
the Exchange Act, against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses described
in the indemnity contained in Section 6(a), but only with respect to untrue statements or alleged
untrue statements or omissions or alleged omissions made in the Registration Statement (or any
amendment thereto), any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, the
21
General Disclosure Package, or the
Final Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information relating to such Underwriter furnished to an Issuer by or on behalf of such
Underwriter specifically for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), the
General Disclosure Package, any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus or the Final Prospectus (or any
amendment or supplement thereto), it being understood and agreed that the only such information
provided by any Underwriter consists of (i) the statements with respect to the offering of the
Class A Certificates by the Underwriters in the third sentence of the second full paragraph under
the caption Underwriting in the Statutory Prospectus and the Final Prospectus, (ii) the
statements with respect to the offering of the Class A Certificates by the Underwriters set forth
in the fourth full paragraph under the caption Underwriting in the Statutory Prospectus and the
Final Prospectus, (iii) the statements with respect to marketing activities by the Underwriters for
the Class A Certificates in the third and fourth sentences of the seventh full paragraph under the
caption Underwriting in the Statutory Prospectus and the Final Prospectus, and (iv) the
statements with respect to stabilization and over-allotment of the Class A Certificates by the
Underwriters (with respect to themselves only) in the eleventh and twelfth full paragraphs under
the caption Underwriting in the Statutory Prospectus and the Final Prospectus. This indemnity
agreement will be in addition to any liability that any Underwriter may otherwise have.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 6 of notice of the
commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be
made against the indemnifying party under this Section 6, notify the indemnifying party or parties
in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party or
parties will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise
than under this Section 6. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it
notifies the indemnifying party or parties of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party or
parties will be entitled to participate therein, and to the extent that such indemnifying party or
parties may elect, by written notice delivered to such indemnified party promptly after receiving
the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel
satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, that if, in the
reasonable judgment of such indemnified party, a conflict of interest exists where it is advisable
for such indemnified party to be represented by separate counsel, the indemnified party shall have
the right to employ separate counsel in any such action, in which event the fees and expenses of
such separate counsel shall be borne by the indemnifying party or parties. Upon receipt of notice
from the indemnifying party or parties to such indemnified party of the election so to assume the
defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party or
parties will not be liable to such
indemnified party under this Section 6 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred
by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party
shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the next preceding sentence
(it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party or parties shall not be liable for the
expenses of more than one such separate counsel representing the indemnified parties under
subparagraph (a) of this Section 6 who are parties to such action), (ii) the indemnifying party or
parties shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the
indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action or (iii) the
indemnifying party or parties have authorized the employment of counsel for the indemnified party
at the expense of the indemnifying party or parties; and except that, if
22
clause (i) or (iii) is
applicable, such liability shall be only in respect of the counsel referred to in such clause (i)
or (iii). It is understood that all such fees and expenses of counsel for the indemnified party
for which the indemnifying party is liable shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. No
indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld), effect any settlement or compromise of, or consent to entry of
judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified
party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such
indemnified party, unless such settlement or compromise of, or consent to entry of judgment with
respect to, includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on
claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and does not include a statement as to or an
admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.
(d) If at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to
reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel payable pursuant to this Section
6, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement, compromise or consent
to entry of judgment of the nature contemplated by clause (ii) of the proviso in Section 6(a)
effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement, compromise or consent to entry of
judgment is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the
aforesaid notice of request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms
of such settlement, compromise or consent to entry of judgment at least 30 days prior to such
settlement being entered into, and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such
indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement, compromise
or consent to entry of judgment.
(e) If the indemnification provided for in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 6 is for any
reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any
losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party
shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses
incurred by such indemnified party, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the
relative benefits received by the Issuers on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand
from the offering of the Class A Certificates pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation
provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault
of the Issuers on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the
statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as
well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative
benefits received by the Issuers on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand in
connection with the offering of the Class A Certificates pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed
to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds from the offering of the Class A Certificates
pursuant to this Agreement (net of underwriting discounts and commissions paid to the Underwriters
but before deducting expenses) received by the Issuers and the total underwriting discounts and
commissions received by the Underwriters in each case as set forth on the cover of the Final
Prospectus, bears to the aggregate initial public offering price of the Class A Certificates as set
forth on such cover. The relative fault of the Issuers on the one hand and the Underwriters on the
other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged
23
omission to state a material
fact relates to information supplied by the Issuers or by the Underwriters and the parties
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission. The Issuers and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and
equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6 were determined by pro rata allocation or by
any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred
to above in this Section 6. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and
expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 6 shall be deemed
to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in
investigating, preparing or defending against any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the
provisions of this Section 6, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess
of the amount by which the total price at which the Class A Certificates underwritten by it and
distributed to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise
been required to pay by reason of any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty
of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 6, each person, if any, who
controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of
the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each director
of an Issuer, each officer of an Issuer who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if
any, who controls an Issuer within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of
the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Issuers. The Underwriters
respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 6 are several in proportion to the
principal amount of Class A Certificates set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule I
hereto and not joint.
7. Default. If any one or more Underwriters shall fail at the Closing Time to purchase and
pay for any of the Class A Certificates agreed to be purchased by such Underwriter or Underwriters
pursuant to this Agreement and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the
performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Underwriters shall be
obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the aggregate face
amount of Class A Certificates specified to be purchased by them in Schedule I hereto bears to the
aggregate face amount of Class A Certificates to be purchased by all the remaining Underwriters)
the Class A Certificates which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to
purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate face amount of
Class A Certificates that the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase
shall exceed 10% of the
aggregate face amount of Class A Certificates to be purchased pursuant to this Agreement, the
remaining Underwriters shall have the right, but not the obligation within 24 hours thereafter, to
make arrangements to purchase all, but not less than all, of such Class A Certificates, and if such
nondefaulting Underwriters do not complete such arrangements within such 24 hour period, then this
Agreement will terminate without liability to any nondefaulting Underwriters or the Issuers. In
the event of any such termination, the provisions of Sections 5, 6 and 8 hereof shall remain in
effect. In the event of a default by any Underwriter as set forth in this Section 7 that does not
result in a termination of this Agreement, the Closing Time shall be postponed for such period, not
exceeding seven days, as the nondefaulting Underwriters or the Issuers shall determine in order
that the required changes in the General Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus or in any
other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve
any
24
defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the Issuers and to any nondefaulting
Underwriters for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.
8. Representations, Warranties, Covenants, Indemnities and Agreements to Survive Delivery.
All representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements contained in this Agreement,
or contained in certificates of officers of the Issuers submitted pursuant hereto, shall remain
operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the
Issuers or any Underwriter or any controlling person of either and shall survive delivery of any
Class A Certificates to the Underwriters.
9. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated immediately upon notice from you to the
Company at any time at or prior to the Closing Time (i) if there has been, since the respective
dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus
(exclusive of any amendments or supplements thereto subsequent to the date of this Agreement), any
material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, of the Guarantor and its
subsidiaries considered as one enterprise, or in the earnings, business affairs or business
prospects of the Guarantor and its subsidiaries considered as one enterprise, whether or not
arising in the ordinary course of business, or (ii) if there has occurred any outbreak or
escalation of hostilities or any material adverse change in the financial markets in the United
States or in the international financial markets or any other calamity or crisis the effect of any
of which on the financial markets is such as to make it, in your judgment, impracticable to market
the Class A Certificates or enforce contracts for the sale of the Class A Certificates, or (iii) if
trading in the securities of the Guarantor has been suspended by the Commission or the New York
Stock Exchange, or if trading generally on the New York Stock Exchange has been suspended, or
minimum or maximum prices for trading have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices for securities
have been required, by said exchange or by order of the Commission or any other governmental
authority, or (iv) if a banking moratorium has been declared by either Federal or New York
authorities. In the event of any such termination, the provisions of Sections 5, 6 and 8 hereof
shall remain in effect.
10. Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and
effective only upon receipt, and, if sent to the Underwriters, will be mailed or transmitted by any
standard form of telecommunication to the Underwriters as set forth in Schedule I hereto or, if
sent to the Issuers, will be mailed or transmitted by any standard form of telecommunication to the
Company at P.O. Box 619616, Dallas/Fort Worth Airport, Texas 75261-9616, facsimile no. (817)
967-2199, attention of the Treasurer.
11. Parties. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the
Underwriters and the Issuers and their respective successors. Nothing expressed or mentioned in
this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation, other
than the parties hereto and their respective successors and the controlling persons and officers
and directors referred to in Section 6 hereof and their successors, heirs and legal
representatives, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this
Agreement or any provision herein contained. This Agreement and all conditions and provisions
hereof are intended to be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties and their respective
successors and said controlling persons and officers and directors and their successors, heirs and
legal representatives, and for the benefit of no other person, firm or corporation. No purchaser
of
25
Class A Certificates from any Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor by reason merely of
such purchase.
12. No Fiduciary Duty. The Issuers acknowledge and agree that each Underwriter is
acting solely in the capacity of an arms length contractual counterparty to the Issuers with
respect to the offering of Class A Certificates contemplated hereby (including in connection with
determining the terms of such offering) and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an
agent of, any Issuer or any of its subsidiaries. Additionally, no Underwriter is advising any
Issuer or any of its subsidiaries as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory
matters in any jurisdiction with respect to the offering of the Class A Certificates or the process
leading thereto (irrespective of whether the Underwriter has advised or is advising the Guarantor
or the Company on other matters). Each Underwriter advises that it and its affiliates are engaged
in a broad range of securities and financial services and that it and its affiliates may enter into
contractual relationships with purchasers or potential purchasers of the Guarantors or the
Companys securities and that some of these services or relationships may involve interests that
differ from those of the Issuers and need not be disclosed to the Issuers, unless otherwise
required by law. The Issuers have consulted with their own advisors concerning such matters and
shall be responsible for making their own independent investigation and appraisal of the
transactions contemplated hereby, and no Underwriter shall have any responsibility or liability to
the Issuers or any of their subsidiaries with respect thereto. Any review by the Underwriters of
the Issuers, the transactions contemplated hereby or other matters relating to such transactions
will be performed solely for the benefit of the Underwriters and shall not be on behalf of the
Issuers. The Issuers waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims they may have
against the Underwriters for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty and agree
that no Underwriter shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect) to the Issuers in respect
of such a fiduciary duty claim.
13. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK.
14. Patriot Act. In accordance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title
III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), the Underwriters are required to obtain,
verify and record information that identifies their respective clients, including the Company,
which information may include the name and address of their respective clients, as well as other
information that will allow the Underwriters to properly identify their respective clients.
15. Effect of Headings. The Section headings herein are for convenience only and
shall not affect the construction hereof.
16. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and when a
counterpart has been executed by each party hereto all such counterparts taken together shall
constitute one and the same agreement.
26
If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding of our agreement, please sign and
return to us a counterpart hereof, whereupon this instrument will become a binding agreement
between the Issuers and each Underwriter in accordance with its terms.

such new Class A Certificates shall be borne by the purchaser(s) thereof.
(b) This Section 6.01 supplements and, to the extent inconsistent with any provision of

Agreement, the provisions of this Section 6.01 may not be amended in any manner without the consent
of each Class A Certificateholder, Class B Certificateholder and Additional Certificateholder or,

its Affiliates in its respective capacity as a Certificateholder) that would be adversely affected
thereby; provided that the purchase price under this Section 6.01 (as in effect on the date
hereof) for any Certificate held by the Company or any of its Affiliates shall not be modified
without the prior written consent of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, if a Certificate

rights during the continuance of any preceding Certificate Buy-Out Event.

Applicable Funding Date as contemplated by Section 2.3 of the Deposit Agreement. Upon satisfaction
of the conditions specified in the NPA and the Applicable Participation Agreement, the Trustee
shall purchase the applicable Series A Equipment Notes with the proceeds of the withdrawals of one
or more Deposits made on the Applicable Funding Date in accordance with the terms of the Deposit
Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. The purchase price of such Series A Equipment Notes shall

or Deposits in excess of the purchase price of the Series A Equipment Notes or to the extent not
applied on the Applicable Funding Date to the purchase price of the Series A Equipment Notes shall
be redeposited by the Trustee with the Depositary on the Applicable Funding Date in accordance with
the terms of the Deposit Agreement. The provisions of this Section 7.01(b) supersede and replace
the provisions of Section 2.02 of the Basic Agreement with respect to the Class A Trust, and no
provisions of the Basic Agreement relating to Postponed Notes and Section 2.02 of the Basic
Agreement shall apply to the Class A Trust.

and replaced in its entirety with the following: The Trustee shall establish and maintain on
behalf of the Class A Certificateholders a Special Payments Account as one or more accounts, which
shall be non-interest bearing except as provided in Section 4.04 of the Basic Agreement. The
Trustee shall hold the Special Payments Account in trust for the benefit of the Class A
Certificateholders and shall make or permit withdrawals therefrom only as provided in the Agreement
or the Intercreditor Agreement. On each day when one or more Special Payments are made to the
Trustee under the Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee, upon receipt thereof, shall immediately
deposit the aggregate amount of such Special Payments in the Special Payments Account.
(d) With respect to the Class A Trust, the second sentence of Section 4.02(c) of the Basic
Agreement shall be superseded and replaced in its entirety with the following sentence: Subject to
the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement: (i) in the event of redemption or purchase of Series
A Equipment Notes held in the Class A Trust, such notice shall be mailed not less than 15 days
prior to the Special Distribution Date for the Special Payment resulting from such redemption or

Special Payment shall be mailed as soon as practicable after the Trustee has confirmed that it has
received funds for such Special Payment and shall state the Special Distribution date for such
Special Payment, which shall occur 15 days after the date of such notice of Special Payment or (if
such 15th day is not practicable) as soon as practicable thereafter.

AA Aircraft EETC
26
Agreement are superseded by any provisions of this Trust Supplement, any reference to such
provisions of the Basic Agreement herein or in the Basic Agreement shall be deemed to be such

Section 9.03 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT HAS BEEN DELIVERED IN THE STATE OF NEW

taxable as a corporation or as a partnership. Each Certificateholder of, and each Person acquiring
a beneficial interest in, a Class A Certificate, by its acceptance of its Class A Certificate or a
beneficial interest therein, agrees to treat the Class A Trust as a grantor trust for all United
States federal, state and local income tax purposes. The Trustee shall not be authorized or
empowered to do anything that would cause the Class A Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust
for such tax purposes (including as subject to this restriction, acquiring any Aircraft by bidding
the Equipment Notes relating thereto or otherwise, or taking any action with respect to any such
Aircraft once acquired).

interest in the Trust evidenced by this Certificate and an amount equal to the sum of such Special
Payments so received. If a Regular Distribution Date or Special Distribution Date is not a Business
Day, distribution shall be made on the immediately following Business Day and no interest shall
accrue during the intervening period. The Trustee shall mail notice of each Special Payment and
the Special Distribution Date therefor to the Certificateholder of this Certificate.
Distributions on this Certificate will be made by the Trustee by check mailed to the Person
entitled thereto, without the presentation or surrender of this Certificate or the making of any
notation hereon, except that with respect to Certificates registered on the Record Date in the name
of a Clearing Agency (or its nominee), such distributions shall be made by wire transfer. Except
as otherwise provided in the Agreement and notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on
this Certificate will be made after notice mailed by the Trustee of the pendency of such
distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency
of the Trustee specified in such notice.
The Certificates do not represent a direct obligation of, or an obligation guaranteed by, or
an interest in, the Company, the Trustee, the Subordination Agent, any Loan Trustee or any
Affiliate of any thereof. The Certificates are limited in right of payment, all as more
specifically set forth on the face hereof and in the Agreement. All payments or distributions made
to Certificateholders under the Agreement shall be made only from the Trust Property and only to
the extent that the Trustee shall have sufficient income or proceeds from the Trust Property to
make such payments in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. Each Certificateholder of this
Certificate, by its acceptance hereof, agrees that it will look solely to the income and proceeds
from the Trust Property to the extent available for any payment or distribution to such
Certificateholder pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and that it will not have any recourse to
the Company, the Trustee, the Loan Trustees or any Affiliate of any thereof except as otherwise
expressly provided in the Agreement, in any Note Document or in the
Trust Supplement No. 2011-2A
AA Aircraft EETC
Intercreditor Agreement. This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and
reference is made to the Agreement for information with respect to the interests, rights, benefits,
obligations, proceeds and duties evidenced hereby. A copy of the Agreement may be examined during
normal business hours at the principal office of the Trustee, and at such other places, if any,
designated by the Trustee, by any Certificateholder upon request.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof, and
the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the
Certificateholders under the Agreement, at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent
of the Certificateholders holding Certificates evidencing Fractional Undivided Interests
aggregating not less than a majority in interest in the Trust. Any such consent by the
Certificateholder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Certificateholder and
upon all future Certificateholders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the
transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is
made upon this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited
circumstances, without the consent of the Certificateholders of any of the Certificates.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, the
transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Register upon surrender of this Certificate for
registration of transfer at the offices or agencies maintained by the Trustee in its capacity as
Registrar, or by any successor Registrar, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Registrar, duly executed by the
Certificateholder hereof or such Certificateholders attorney duly authorized in writing, and
thereupon one or more new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate
Fractional Undivided Interest in the Trust will be issued to the designated transferee or
transferees.
The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in minimum
denominations of $2,000 (or such other denomination that is the lowest integral multiple of $1,000
that is, at the time of issuance, equal to at least 1,000 euros) Fractional Undivided Interest and
multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof except that one Certificate may be issued in a different
denomination. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
the Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the
same aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest in the Trust, as requested by the Certificateholder
surrendering the same.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the
Trustee shall require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge payable
in connection therewith.
The Company, the Trustee, the Registrar and any Paying Agent shall deem and treat the Person
in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the
Company, the Trustee, the Registrar or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the
contrary.

Dated as of October 4, 2011
American Airlines Pass Through Trust 2011-2A
GUARANTEE
This Guarantee (this Guarantee), made and entered into as of October 4, 2011, from
AMR CORPORATION, a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware
and having its principal office at 4333 Amon Carter Boulevard, Fort Worth, Texas 76155, as
guarantor (the Guarantor), to U.S. BANK TRUST NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, in its individual
capacity (U.S. Bank Trust) and as Pass Through Trustee under the Class A Pass Through
Trust Agreement, Subordination Agent, and Loan Trustee (collectively, together with their
successors and permitted assigns (including any subsequent holder of any Guaranteed Equipment Note
(as defined below)), the Beneficiaries and, individually, a Beneficiary).
RECITALS
American Airlines, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Guarantor
(together with its successors and permitted assigns, the Company) is entering into that
certain Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the Note Purchase
Agreement), among the Company, the Class A Pass Through Trustee, the Subordination Agent, U.S.
Bank National Association, as Escrow Agent, and U.S. Bank Trust National Association, as Paying
Agent, relating to the aircraft identified in Schedule I to the Note Purchase Agreement
(collectively, the Aircraft). Defined terms used herein without definition shall have
the meanings assigned to them in Annex A to the Note Purchase Agreement, or, if not defined
therein, in the Class A Pass Through Trust Agreement.
In order to finance the Aircraft, the Company will issue the Series A Equipment Notes
(collectively, the Guaranteed Equipment Notes) under the Indentures.
It is a condition precedent to the obligations of the Beneficiaries to consummate the
transactions contemplated by the Note Purchase Agreement that the Guarantor execute and deliver
this Guarantee.
Accordingly, for and in consideration of the premises and of other good and valuable
consideration, the Guarantor does hereby covenant and agree with the Beneficiaries from and after
the execution of the Note Purchase Agreement as follows:
ARTICLE I
Representations and Warranties of Guarantor
SECTION 1.1. Guarantor Representations and Warranties. The Guarantor does hereby
represent and warrant that: it is a corporation duly incorporated and in good standing under the
laws of the State of Delaware; it has the power to enter into and perform this Guarantee and to own
its corporate property and assets; it has duly
authorized the execution and delivery of this Guarantee by proper corporate action; and
neither this Guarantee, nor the authorization, execution, delivery and performance hereof, nor the
performance of the agreements herein contained nor the consummation of the transactions herein
contemplated will violate in any material respect any provision of law, any order of any court or
agency of government or any agreement, indenture or other instrument to which the Guarantor is a
party or by which it or its property is bound, or in any material respect be in conflict with or
result in a breach of or constitute a default under any indenture, agreement or other instrument or
any provision of its certificate of incorporation, bylaws or any requirement of law. This
Guarantee constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Guarantor enforceable against
the Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as the enforceability hereof may be limited by
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the rights
of creditors generally and by general equitable principles.
ARTICLE II
Guarantee of Obligations
SECTION 2.1. Obligations Guaranteed. The Guarantor hereby unconditionally guarantees
to each of the Beneficiaries, as their respective interests may appear, the full and prompt payment
by the Company, when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the stated payment
date thereof, by acceleration, or otherwise, of, and the faithful performance and compliance with,
all payment obligations of the Company under the Note Purchase Agreement, the Participation
Agreements, the Indentures, the Guaranteed Equipment Notes and the Class A Pass Through Trust
Agreement owed to the Beneficiaries strictly in accordance with the terms thereof, however created,
arising or evidenced, whether direct or indirect, primary or secondary, absolute or contingent,
joint or several, and whether now or hereafter existing or due or to become due (such payment
obligations, the Obligations); provided that in no event shall the Obligations
include any obligation of the Company with respect to, or determined with respect to, any Series B
Equipment Notes, Class B Certificates, Refinancing Equipment Notes, Refinancing Certificates,
Additional Series Equipment Notes or Additional Series Pass Through Certificates or any liquidity
facility with respect to any Class B Certificates, Refinancing Certificates or Additional Series
Pass Through Certificates. If for any reason the Company shall fail punctually to pay any such
Obligations, the Guarantor hereby agrees to cause any such payment to be made punctually when and
as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the stated payment date thereof, by
acceleration, or otherwise. All payments by the Guarantor hereunder shall be paid in lawful money
of the United States of America.
SECTION 2.2. Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Guarantor under this
Guarantee shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall constitute a continuing and
present guarantee of payment and not of collectability. Such obligations
2
shall remain in full force and effect until the Obligations are finally, indefeasibly and
unconditionally paid in full in accordance with the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement, the
Participation Agreements, the Indentures, the Guaranteed Equipment Notes and the Class A Pass
Through Trust Agreement, and, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, such obligations
shall not be affected, modified, released or impaired by any state of facts or the happening from
time to time of any event, including, without limitation, any of the following, whether or not with
notice to, or the consent of, the Guarantor:
(a) the waiver, compromise, settlement, release or termination of any or all of the
obligations, covenants or agreements of the Company contained in the Note Purchase
Agreement, the Participation Agreements, the Indentures, the Guaranteed Equipment Notes or
the Class A Pass Through Trust Agreement, or of the payment, performance or observance
thereof;
(b) the failure to give notice to the Guarantor of the occurrence of any default or an
Event of Default under the terms and provisions of the Note Purchase Agreement, the
Participation Agreements, the Indentures, the Guaranteed Equipment Notes or the Class A
Pass Through Trust Agreement;
(c) the assignment or purported assignment of any of the obligations, covenants and
agreements contained in this Guarantee;
(d) the extension of the time for payment of any Obligation or of the time for
performance of any obligations, covenants or agreements under or arising out of the Note
Purchase Agreement, the Participation Agreements, the Indentures, the Guaranteed Equipment
Notes or the Class A Pass Through Trust Agreement or the extension or the renewal of any
thereof;
(e) the modification or amendment (whether material or otherwise) of any obligation,
covenant or agreement set forth in the Note Purchase Agreement, the Participation
Agreements, the Indentures, the Guaranteed Equipment Notes or the Class A Pass Through
Trust Agreement, other than any such modification or amendment imposing any obligation with
respect to, or determined with respect to, any Series B Equipment Notes, Class B
Certificates, Refinancing Equipment Notes, Refinancing Certificates, Additional Series
Equipment Notes or Additional Series Pass Through Certificates or any liquidity facility
with respect to any Class B Certificates, Refinancing Certificates or Additional Series
Pass Through Certificates;
(f) the taking or the omission to take any of the actions referred to in this
Guarantee or in the Note Purchase Agreement, the Participation Agreements, the Indentures,
the Guaranteed Equipment Notes or the Class A Pass Through Trust Agreement;
3
(g) any failure, omission or delay on the part of, or the inability of, the
Beneficiaries for any reason to enforce, assert or exercise any right, power or remedy
conferred on such Beneficiaries or any other Person in this Guarantee or in the Note
Purchase Agreement, the Participation Agreements, the Indentures, the Guaranteed Equipment
Notes or the Class A Pass Through Trust Agreement;
(h) the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, merger, consolidation, sale
or other disposition of all or substantially all the assets, marshaling of assets and
liabilities, receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors,
reorganization, arrangement, composition with creditors or readjustment of, or other
similar proceedings affecting the Company or any or all of its assets, or any allegation or
contest of the validity of the Note Purchase Agreement, the Participation Agreements, the
Indentures, the Guaranteed Equipment Notes or the Class A Pass Through Trust Agreement or
the disaffirmance of the Note Purchase Agreement, the Participation Agreements, the
Indentures, the Guaranteed Equipment Notes or the Class A Pass Through Trust Agreement in
any such proceeding; it being specifically understood, consented and agreed to, to the
maximum extent permitted by applicable law, that this Guarantee shall remain and continue
in full force and effect and shall be enforceable against the Guarantor to the same extent
and with the same force and effect as if such proceedings had not been instituted, and it
is the intent and purpose of this Guarantee that the Guarantor shall and does hereby waive,
to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, all rights and benefits which might
accrue to the Guarantor by reason of any such proceedings;
(i) any event or action that would, in the absence of this clause, result in the
release or discharge by operation of law of the Guarantor from the performance or
observance of any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in this Guarantee;
(j) the default or failure of the Guarantor fully to perform any of its obligations
set forth in this Guarantee;
(k) the release, substitution or replacement of any security for the performance or
observation of any of the Obligations;
(l) any assignment, transfer, lease or other arrangement by which the Company
transfers possession of or loses control of the use of any Aircraft;
(m) the disposition by the Guarantor of any or all of its interest in any capital
stock of the Company, or any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate
structure, ownership, corporate existence or any rights or franchises of the Company;
4
(n) any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable
discharge or defense of a surety or a guarantor; or
(o) any other occurrence whatsoever, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing.
SECTION 2.3. No Waiver or Set-Off. The Guarantor agrees that, to the maximum extent
permitted by law, (a) no act of commission or omission of any kind or at any time on the
part of any Beneficiary, or its successors and assigns, in respect of any matter whatsoever shall
in any way impair the rights of the Beneficiaries to enforce any right, power or benefit under this
Guarantee, and (b) no set-off, counterclaim, reduction, or diminution of any obligation, or
any defense of any kind or nature (other than performance), which the Guarantor or the Company has
or may have against any Beneficiary or any assignee or successor thereof shall be available
hereunder to the Guarantor.
SECTION 2.4. Waiver of Notice; Expenses. The Guarantor hereby expressly waives
notice from the Beneficiaries of their acceptance and reliance on this Guarantee. The Guarantor
further waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any right that it may have (a) to
require the Beneficiaries to take action or otherwise proceed against the Company, (b) to
require the Beneficiaries to proceed against or exhaust any security granted by the Company or
(c) to require the Beneficiaries otherwise to enforce, assert or exercise any other right,
power or remedy that may be available to the Beneficiaries. The Guarantor agrees to pay all costs,
expenses and fees, including all reasonable attorneys fees and expenses, that may be incurred by
the Beneficiaries in enforcing or attempting to enforce this Guarantee or protecting the rights of
the Beneficiaries following any default on the part of the Guarantor hereunder, whether the same
shall be enforced by suit or otherwise.
SECTION 2.5. Subrogation of Guarantor; Subordination. Notwithstanding any payment or
payments made by the Guarantor, the Guarantor agrees that it will not enforce, by reason of
subrogation, contribution, indemnity or otherwise, any rights the Beneficiaries may have against
the Company until all of the Obligations shall have been finally, indefeasibly and unconditionally
paid in full. Any claim of the Guarantor against the Company arising from payments made by the
Guarantor by reason of this Guarantee shall be in all respects subordinated to the final,
indefeasible, unconditional, full and complete payment or discharge of all of Obligations.
SECTION 2.6. Reinstatement. This Guarantee shall continue to be effective, or be
automatically reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, made by
or on behalf of the Company or the Guarantor in respect of any of the Obligations is rescinded or
must otherwise be restored or returned by the Beneficiaries for any reason whatsoever, whether upon
the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Company, or upon or
as a result of the appointment of
5
a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for the Company or any
substantial part of its properties, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.
SECTION 2.7. Rights to Proceed Against the Guarantor. In the event of a default in
any payment of any Obligation owed to any Beneficiaries, notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, such Beneficiaries shall have the right to institute any proceeding, judicial or
otherwise, to enforce their rights under this Guarantee without first instituting a legal
proceeding against the Company or any other Person.
ARTICLE III
Covenants of the Guarantor
SECTION 3.1. Consolidation or Merger of the Guarantor. The Guarantor may merge or
consolidate with or into any other Person or sell, convey, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or
substantially all of its assets to any Person, if: (a) (i) in the case of a merger
or consolidation, the Guarantor is the surviving Person or (ii) in the case of a merger or
consolidation where the Guarantor is not the surviving Person and in the case of any such sale,
conveyance, transfer or other disposition, the resulting, surviving or transferee Person is
organized and existing under the laws of the United States or a State thereof and such Person
expressly assumes by supplemental agreement all the obligations of the Guarantor under the Class A
Pass Through Trust Agreement and this Guarantee; and (b) the Guarantor shall have delivered
to the Class A Pass Through Trustee and each Loan Trustee an Officers Certificate and an Opinion
of Counsel, each stating that such merger, consolidation, sale, conveyance, transfer or other
disposition complies with this Section 3.1 and that all conditions precedent herein provided for
relating to such transaction have been complied with. In the event of the assumption by a
successor Person of the obligations of the Guarantor as provided in clause (a)(ii) of the
immediately preceding sentence, such successor Person shall succeed to and be substituted for the
Guarantor hereunder and under the Class A Pass Through Trust Agreement, and all such obligations of
the Guarantor shall terminate.
ARTICLE IV
Notices
SECTION 4.1. Notices. All notices required under the terms and conditions of this
Guarantee shall be in writing and in English, and any such notice may be given by United States
registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, overnight courier service or facsimile, and
any such notice shall be effective when received (or, if delivered by facsimile, upon completion of
transmission and confirmation by the sender (by a telephone call to a representative of the
recipient or by machine confirmation) that such transmission was received), to the Guarantor
addressed to it at AMR Corporation, MD
6
5566, P.O. Box 619616, Dallas/Fort Worth Airport, Texas 75261-9616, Attention: Treasurer. The
Guarantor, by notice to the Beneficiaries, may designate additional or different addresses for
subsequent notices or communications.
ARTICLE V
Miscellaneous
SECTION 5.1. Evidence of Compliance with Conditions Precedent. The Guarantor shall
provide the Class A Pass Through Trustee with such evidence of compliance with such conditions
precedent, if any, provided for in this Guarantee that relate to the matters set forth in Section
314(c) of the Trust Indenture Act. Any certificate or opinion required to be given by an officer
pursuant to Section 314(c)(1) may be given in the form of an Officers Certificate.
SECTION 5.2. Remedies Not Exclusive. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to
the Beneficiaries is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but, to
the maximum extent permitted by law, each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in
addition to every other remedy given under this Guarantee or now or hereafter existing at law or in
equity. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default, omission or
failure of performance hereunder shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a
waiver thereof, but any such right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may
be deemed expedient. In order to entitle the Beneficiaries to exercise any remedy reserved to them
in this Guarantee, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, it shall not be necessary to
give any notice. In the event any provision contained in this Guarantee should be breached, and
thereafter duly waived, such waiver shall be limited to the particular breach so waived and shall
not be deemed to waive any other breach hereunder. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable
law, no waiver, amendment, release or modification of this Guarantee shall be established by
conduct, custom or course of dealing, but solely by an instrument in writing duly executed by the
parties to this Guarantee.
SECTION 5.3. Amendments; Entire Agreement; Counterparts; Successors and Assigns.
Neither this Guarantee nor any of the terms hereof may be terminated, amended, supplemented, waived
or modified orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which the
enforcement of the termination, amendment, supplement, waiver or modification is sought. This
Guarantee constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings,
both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and may be
executed simultaneously in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all
of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. To the maximum extent permitted by
applicable law, this Guarantee shall be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the
Guarantor and shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be
7
enforceable by, each of the Beneficiaries and its respective successors and permitted assigns.
SECTION 5.4. No Implied Third Party Beneficiaries. This Guarantee shall not be
deemed to create any right in any Person except a Beneficiary and shall not be construed in any
respect to be a contract in whole or in part for the benefit of any other Person.
SECTION 5.5. Severability. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any
provision of this Guarantee which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to
such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
SECTION 5.6. Governing Law. THIS GUARANTEE HAS BEEN DELIVERED IN THE STATE OF NEW
YORK AND SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK,
INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE. This Guarantee is subject to the
Trust Indenture Act, and if any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of
the Trust Indenture Act that is required by the Trust Indenture Act to be a part of and govern this
Guarantee, the latter provision shall control. If any provision of this Guarantee modifies or
excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may be so modified or excluded, the latter
provision shall be deemed to apply to this Guarantee as so modified, or to be excluded, as the case
may be, whether or not such provision of this Guarantee refers expressly to such provision of the
Trust Indenture Act.

payment specified in Section 2.02(e), the Liquidity Provider shall have fully discharged its
obligations hereunder with respect to such Advance and an event of default shall not have occurred
hereunder. Following the making of any Advance pursuant to Section 2.02(b), 2.02(c) or 2.02(d) to
fund the Class A Cash Collateral Account, the Liquidity Provider shall have no interest in or
rights to the Class A Cash Collateral Account, such Advance or any other amounts from time to time
on deposit in the Class A Cash Collateral Account; provided that the foregoing shall not
affect or impair the obligations of the Subordination Agent to make the distributions contemplated
by Section 3.05(e) or 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement. By paying to the Borrower proceeds
of Advances requested by the Borrower in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the
Liquidity Provider makes no representation as to, and assumes no responsibility for, the
correctness or sufficiency for any purpose of the amount of the Advances so made and requested.
Section 2.03 Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Liquidity Provider the fees set
forth in the Fee Letter.
Section 2.04 Reduction or Termination of the Maximum Commitment. (a) Automatic
Reduction. Promptly following each date on which the Required Amount is reduced as a result of
a reduction in the Pool Balance of the Class A Certificates, the Maximum Commitment shall
automatically be reduced to an amount equal to such reduced Required Amount (as calculated by the
Borrower). The Borrower shall give notice of any such automatic reduction of the Maximum
Commitment to the Liquidity Provider and American within two Business Days thereof. The failure by
the Borrower to furnish any such notice shall not affect any such automatic reduction of the
Maximum Commitment.
(b) Termination. Upon the making of any Provider Advance, Special Termination Advance
or Final Advance hereunder or the occurrence of the Termination Date, the
Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
10
obligation of the Liquidity Provider to make further Advances hereunder shall automatically
and irrevocably terminate, and the Borrower shall not be entitled to request any further Borrowing
hereunder.
Section 2.05 Repayments of Interest Advances, the Special Termination Advance or the Final
Advance. Subject to Sections 2.06, 2.07 and 2.09 hereof, the Borrower hereby agrees, without
notice of an Advance or demand for repayment from the Liquidity Provider (which notice and demand
are hereby waived by the Borrower), to pay, or to cause to be paid, to the Liquidity Provider (a)
on each date on which the Liquidity Provider shall make an Interest Advance, the Special
Termination Advance or the Final Advance, an amount equal to the amount of such Advance (any such
Advance, until repaid, is referred to herein as an Unpaid Advance), plus (b) interest on the
amount of each such Unpaid Advance in the amounts and on the dates determined as provided in
Section 3.07; provided that if (i) the Liquidity Provider shall make a Provider Advance at
any time after making one or more Interest Advances which shall not have been repaid in accordance
with this Section 2.05 or (ii) this Liquidity Facility shall become a Downgraded Facility or
Non-Extended Facility at any time when unreimbursed Interest Advances have reduced the Maximum
Available Commitment to zero, then such Interest Advances shall cease to constitute Unpaid Advances
and shall be deemed to have been changed into an Applied Downgrade Advance or an Applied
Non-Extension Advance, as the case may be, for all purposes of this Agreement (including, without
limitation, for the purpose of determining when such Interest Advance is required to be repaid to
the Liquidity Provider in accordance with Section 2.06 and for the purposes of Section 2.06(b));
provided, further, that amounts in respect of a Special Termination Advance
withdrawn from the Class A Cash Collateral Account for the purpose of paying interest on the Class
A Certificates in accordance with Section 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement (the portion of
the outstanding Special Termination Advance equal to the amount of any such withdrawal, but not in
excess of the outstanding Special Termination Advance, being an Applied Special Termination
Advance) shall thereafter (subject to Section 2.06(b)) be treated as an Interest Advance under
this Agreement for purposes of determining the Applicable Liquidity Rate for interest payable
thereon; provided, further, that if, following the making of a Special Termination
Advance, the Liquidity Provider delivers a Termination Notice to the Borrower pursuant to Section
6.01(a), such Special Termination Advance (including any portion thereof that is an Applied Special
Termination Advance) shall thereafter be treated as a Final Advance under this Agreement for
purposes of determining the Applicable Liquidity Rate for interest payable thereon; and,
provided, further, that if, after making a Provider Advance, the Liquidity Provider
delivers a Special Termination Notice to the Borrower pursuant to Section 6.01(b), any Unapplied
Provider Advance shall be converted to and treated as a Special Termination Advance under this
Agreement for purposes of determining the Applicable Liquidity Rate for interest payable thereon
and the obligation for repayment thereof under the Intercreditor Agreement. The Borrower and the
Liquidity Provider agree that the repayment in full of each Interest Advance, Special Termination
Advance and Final Advance on the date such Advance is made is intended to be a contemporaneous
exchange for new value given to the Borrower by the Liquidity Provider. For the avoidance of
doubt, interest payable on an Interest Advance, Special Termination Advance or the Final Advance
shall not be regarded as overdue unless such interest is not paid when due under Section 3.07.
Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
11
Section 2.06 Repayments of Provider Advances. (a) Amounts advanced hereunder in
respect of a Provider Advance shall be deposited in the Class A Cash Collateral Account and
invested and withdrawn from the Class A Cash Collateral Account as set forth in Sections 3.05(c),
3.05(d), 3.05(e) and 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement. Subject to Sections 2.07 and 2.09,
the Borrower agrees to pay to the Liquidity Provider, on each Regular Distribution Date, commencing
on the first Regular Distribution Date after the making of a Provider Advance, interest on the
principal amount of any such Provider Advance, in the amounts determined as provided in Section
3.07; provided, however, that amounts in respect of a Provider Advance withdrawn
from the Class A Cash Collateral Account for the purpose of paying interest on the Class A
Certificates in accordance with Section 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement (the amount of any
such withdrawal being (y), in the case of a Downgrade Advance, an Applied Downgrade Advance and
(z) in the case of a Non-Extension Advance, an Applied Non-Extension Advance and together with an
Applied Downgrade Advance, an Applied Provider Advance) shall thereafter (subject to Section
2.06(b)) be treated as an Interest Advance under this Agreement for purposes of determining the
Applicable Liquidity Rate for interest payable thereon; provided, further,
however, that if, following the making of a Provider Advance, the Liquidity Provider
delivers a Termination Notice to the Borrower pursuant to Section 6.01(a), such Provider Advance
shall thereafter be treated as a Final Advance under this Agreement for purposes of determining the
Applicable Liquidity Rate for interest payable thereon. Subject to Sections 2.07 and 2.09,
immediately upon the withdrawal of any amounts from the Class A Cash Collateral Account on account
of a reduction in the Required Amount, the Borrower shall repay to the Liquidity Provider a portion
of the Provider Advances in a principal amount equal to such reduction, plus interest on the
principal amount so repaid as provided in Section 3.07.
(b) At any time when an Applied Provider Advance or Applied Special Termination Advance (or
any portion thereof) is outstanding, upon the deposit in the Class A Cash Collateral Account of any
amount pursuant to clause fourth of Section 3.02 of the Intercreditor Agreement (any such amount
being a Replenishment Amount) for the purpose of replenishing or increasing the balance thereof
up to the Required Amount at such time, (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all
Applied Provider Advances and Applied Special Termination Advances (and of Provider Advances and
Special Termination Advances treated as Interest Advances for purposes of determining the
Applicable Liquidity Rate for interest payable thereon) shall be automatically reduced by the
amount of such Replenishment Amount, and (ii) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all
Unapplied Provider Advances shall be automatically increased by the amount of such Replenishment
Amount.
(c) Upon the provision of a Replacement Liquidity Facility in replacement of this Agreement in
accordance with Section 3.05(e) of the Intercreditor Agreement, as provided in Section 3.05(f) of
the Intercreditor Agreement, amounts remaining on deposit in the Class A Cash Collateral Account
after giving effect to any Applied Provider Advance on the date of such replacement shall be
reimbursed to the Liquidity Provider, but only to the extent such amounts are necessary to repay in
full to the Liquidity Provider all amounts owing to it hereunder.
Section 2.07 Payments to the Liquidity Provider Under the Intercreditor Agreement. In
order to provide for payment or repayment to the Liquidity Provider of any amounts hereunder, the
Intercreditor Agreement provides that amounts available and referred to in Articles II and III
Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
12
of the Intercreditor Agreement, to the extent payable to the Liquidity Provider pursuant to
the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 3.05(f) of the
Intercreditor Agreement), shall be paid to the Liquidity Provider in accordance with the terms
thereof (but, for the avoidance of doubt, without duplication of or increase in any amounts payable
hereunder). Amounts so paid to the Liquidity Provider shall be applied by the Liquidity Provider
in the order of priority required by the applicable provisions of Articles II and III of the
Intercreditor Agreement and shall discharge in full the corresponding obligations of the Borrower
hereunder.
Section 2.08 Book Entries. The Liquidity Provider shall maintain in accordance with
its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower resulting
from Advances made from time to time and the amounts of principal and interest payable hereunder
and paid from time to time in respect thereof; provided, however, that the failure
by the Liquidity Provider to maintain such account or accounts shall not affect the obligations of
the Borrower in respect of Advances.
Section 2.09 Payments from Available Funds Only. All payments to be made by the
Borrower under this Agreement shall be made only from the amounts that constitute Scheduled
Payments, Special Payments and other payments under the Operative Agreements, including payment
under Section 4.02 of the Participation Agreements and payments under Section 2.14 of the
Indentures, and only to the extent that the Borrower shall have sufficient income or proceeds
therefrom to enable the Borrower to make payments in accordance with the terms hereof after giving
effect to the priority of payments provisions set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement. The
Liquidity Provider agrees that it will look solely to such amounts to the extent available for
distribution to it as provided in the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement and that the
Borrower, in its individual capacity, is not personally liable to it for any amounts payable or
liability under this Agreement except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Intercreditor
Agreement or any Participation Agreement. Amounts on deposit in the Class A Cash Collateral
Account shall be available to the Borrower to make payments under this Agreement only to the extent
and for the purposes expressly contemplated in Section 3.05(f) of the Intercreditor Agreement.
Section 2.10 Extension of the Expiry Date; Non-Extension Advance. If the Liquidity
Provider notifies the Borrower in writing before the 25th day prior to an anniversary
date of the Closing Date that is prior to the 15th day after the Final Legal
Distribution Date for the Class A Certificates (such notification, a Non-Extension Notice; the
date of such notification, the Notice Date) that its obligation to make Advances hereunder shall
not be extended beyond the immediately following anniversary date of the Closing Date (and if the
Liquidity Provider shall not have been replaced in accordance with Section 3.05(e) of the
Intercreditor Agreement), the Borrower shall be entitled on and after the Notice Date (but prior to
such anniversary date) to request a Non-Extension Advance in accordance with Section 2.02(b) hereof
and Section 3.05(d) of the Intercreditor Agreement.

ARTICLE III
OBLIGATIONS OF THE BORROWER
Section 3.01 Increased Costs. Without duplication of any rights created by Section
3.03, if as a result of any Regulatory Change there shall be any increase by an amount reasonably
deemed by the Liquidity Provider to be material in the actual cost to the Liquidity Provider of
making, funding or maintaining any Advances or its obligation to make any such Advances or there
shall be any reduction by an amount reasonably deemed by the Liquidity Provider to be material in
the amount receivable by the Liquidity Provider under this Agreement or the Intercreditor Agreement
in respect thereof, and in case of either such an increase or reduction, such event does not arise
from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Liquidity Provider, from its breach of any
of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained herein or in the
Intercreditor Agreement or from its failure to comply with any such Regulatory Change (any such
increase or reduction being referred to herein as an Increased Cost), then, subject to Sections
2.07 and 2.09, the Borrower shall from time to time pay to the Liquidity Provider an amount equal
to such Increased Cost within 10 Business Days after delivery to the Borrower and American of a
certificate of an officer of the Liquidity Provider describing in reasonable detail the event by
reason of which it claims such Increased Cost and the basis for the determination of the amount of
such Increased Cost; provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay amounts only with
respect to any Increased Costs accruing from the date 120 days prior to the date of delivery of
such certificate. Such certificate, in the absence of manifest error, shall be considered prima
facie evidence of the amount of the Increased Costs for purposes of this Agreement;
provided that any determinations and allocations by the Liquidity Provider of the effect of
any Regulatory Change on the costs of maintaining the Advances or the obligation to make Advances
are made on a reasonable basis. For the avoidance of doubt, the Liquidity Provider shall not be
entitled to assert any claim under this Section 3.01 in respect of or attributable to Excluded
Taxes. The Liquidity Provider will notify the Borrower and American as promptly as practicable of
any event occurring after the date of this Agreement that will entitle the Liquidity Provider to
compensation under this Section 3.01. The Liquidity Provider agrees to investigate all
commercially reasonable alternatives for reducing any Increased Costs and to use all commercially
reasonable efforts to avoid or minimize, to the greatest extent possible, any claim in respect of
Increased Costs, including, without limitation, by designating a different Lending Office, if such
designation or other action would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such claim;
provided that the foregoing shall not obligate the Liquidity Provider to take any action
that would, in its reasonable judgment, cause the Liquidity Provider to take any action that is not
materially consistent with its internal policies or is otherwise materially disadvantageous to the
Liquidity Provider or that would cause the Liquidity Provider to incur any material loss or cost,
unless the Borrower or American agrees to reimburse or indemnify the Liquidity Provider therefor.
If no such designation or other action is effected, or, if effected, such notice fails to avoid the
need for any claim in respect of Increased Costs, American may arrange for a Replacement Liquidity
Facility in accordance with Section 3.05(e) of the Intercreditor Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, in no event shall the Borrower be required to make
payments under this Section 3.01: (a) in respect of any Regulatory Change proposed by
Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
14
any applicable governmental authority (including any branch of a legislature), central bank or
comparable agency of the United States or the Liquidity Providers jurisdiction of organization or
in which its Lending Office is located and pending as of the date of this Agreement (it being
agreed that the Regulatory Changes contemplated by the Consultative Documents issued by the Basel
Committee on Banking Supervision entitled Strengthening the resilience of the banking sector and
International framework for liquidity risk measurement, standards and monitoring, each dated
December 2009, shall not be considered to have been proposed or pending as of the date of this
Agreement); (b) if a claim hereunder in respect of an Increased Cost arises through circumstances
peculiar to the Liquidity Provider and that do not affect similarly organized commercial banking
institutions in the same jurisdiction generally that are in compliance with the law, rule,
regulation or interpretation giving rise to the Regulatory Change relating to such Increased Cost;
(c) if the Liquidity Provider shall fail to comply with its obligations under this Section 3.01 or
(d) if the Liquidity Provider is not also seeking payment for similar increased costs in other
similarly situated transactions related to the airline industry.
Section 3.02 Intentionally omitted.
Section 3.03 Withholding Taxes. (a) All payments made by the Borrower under this
Agreement shall be made without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes, unless
such deduction or withholding is required by law. If any Taxes are so required to be withheld or
deducted from any amounts payable to the Liquidity Provider under this Agreement, then, subject to
Sections 2.07 and 2.09, the Borrower shall pay to the relevant authorities the full amount so
required to be deducted or withheld and, without duplication of any rights created by Section 3.01,
if such Taxes are Covered Taxes, pay to the Liquidity Provider such additional amounts as shall be
necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by the Liquidity Provider (after
deduction or withholding of all Covered Taxes) shall be equal to the full amount that would have
been received by the Liquidity Provider had no withholding or deduction of Covered Taxes been
required. The Liquidity Provider agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with applicable
legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office if making such
change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may
thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of the Liquidity Provider, be otherwise
materially disadvantageous to the Liquidity Provider. If the Liquidity Provider receives a refund
of, or realizes a net Tax benefit not otherwise available to it as a result of, any Taxes for which
additional amounts were paid by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 3.03, the Liquidity Provider
shall pay to the Borrower (for deposit into the Collection Account) the amount of such refund (and
any interest thereon) or net benefit.
The Liquidity Provider will (i) provide (on its behalf and on behalf of any participant
holding a Participation pursuant to Section 7.08) to the Borrower (x) on or prior to the Effective
Date two valid completed and executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9,
W-8BEN or W-8ECI (whichever is applicable), including thereon a valid U.S. taxpayer
identification number (or, with respect to any such participant, such other form or documentation
as may be applicable) covering all amounts receivable by it in connection with the transactions
contemplated by the Operative Agreements and (y) thereafter from time to time such additional forms
or documentation as may be necessary to establish an available exemption from withholding of United
States Tax on payments hereunder so that such forms or documentation
Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
15
are effective for all periods during which it is the Liquidity Provider and (ii) provide
timely notice to the Borrower if any such form or documentation is or becomes inaccurate. The
Liquidity Provider shall deliver to the Borrower such other forms or documents as may be reasonably
requested by the Borrower or required by applicable law to establish that payments hereunder are
exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of Covered Taxes.
(b) All payments (including, without limitation, Advances) made by the Liquidity Provider
under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without reduction for or on account of,
any Taxes. If any Taxes are required to be withheld or deducted from any amounts payable to the
Borrower under this Agreement, the Liquidity Provider shall (i) within the time prescribed therefor
by applicable law pay to the appropriate governmental or taxing authority the full amount of any
such Taxes (and any additional Taxes in respect of the additional amounts payable under clause (ii)
hereof) and make such reports or returns in connection therewith at the time or times and in the
manner prescribed by applicable law, and (ii) pay to the Borrower an additional amount which (after
deduction of all such Taxes) will be sufficient to yield to the Borrower the full amount which
would have been received by it had no such withholding or deduction been made. Within 30 days
after the date of each payment hereunder, the Liquidity Provider shall furnish to the Borrower the
original or a certified copy of (or other documentary evidence of) the payment of the Taxes
applicable to such payment.
If any exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, any Taxes required to be borne by the
Liquidity Provider under this Section 3.03(b) is reasonably available to the Borrower without
providing any information regarding the holders or beneficial owners of the Certificates, the
Borrower shall deliver the Liquidity Provider such form or forms and such other evidence of the
eligibility of the Borrower for such exemption or reductions (but without any requirement to
provide any information regarding the holders or beneficial owners of the Certificates) as the
Liquidity Provider may reasonably identify to the Borrower as being required as a condition to
exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, such Taxes.
Section 3.04 Payments. Subject to Sections 2.07 and 2.09, the Borrower shall make or
cause to be made each payment to the Liquidity Provider under this Agreement so as to cause the
same to be received by the Liquidity Provider not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the
day when due. The Borrower shall make all such payments in Dollars, to the Liquidity Provider in
immediately available funds, by wire transfer to the account of MS Bank at [___________________],
Reference to: American Airlines 2011-2A EETC, Attention: Morgan Stanley Loan Servicing, or to such
other U.S. bank account as the Liquidity Provider may from time to time direct the Subordination
Agent.
Section 3.05 Computations. All computations of interest based on the Base Rate shall
be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of
interest based on the LIBOR Rate shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for
the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the
period for which such interest is payable.
Section 3.06 Payment on Non-Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder
shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be
Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
16
made on the next succeeding Business Day and no additional interest shall be due as a result
(and if so made, shall be deemed to have been made when due). If any payment in respect of
interest on an Advance is so deferred to the next succeeding Business Day, such deferral shall not
delay the commencement of the next Interest Period for such Advance (if such Advance is a LIBOR
Advance) or reduce the number of days for which interest will be payable on such Advance on the
next Interest Payment Date for such Advance.
Section 3.07 Interest. (a) Subject to Sections 2.07 and 2.09, the Borrower shall
pay, or shall cause to be paid, without duplication, interest on (i) the unpaid principal amount of
each Advance from and including the date of such Advance (or, in the case of an Applied Provider
Advance or Applied Special Termination Advance, from and including the date on which the amount
thereof was withdrawn from the Class A Cash Collateral Account to pay interest on the Class A
Certificates) to but excluding the date such principal amount shall be paid in full (or, in the
case of an Applied Provider Advance or Applied Special Termination Advance, the date on which the
Class A Cash Collateral Account is fully replenished in respect of such Advance) and (ii), to the
extent permitted by law, any other amount due hereunder (whether fees, commissions, expenses or
other amounts or installments of interest on Advances or any such other amount) that is not paid
when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) from and including the due date
thereof to but excluding the date such amount is paid in full, in each such case, at the interest
rate per annum for each day that such amount remains overdue and unpaid equal to the Applicable
Liquidity Rate for such Advance or such other amount, as the case may be, as in effect for such
day, but in no event in any case referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above at a rate per annum
greater than the maximum rate permitted by applicable law; provided, however, that,
if at any time the otherwise applicable interest rate as set forth in this Section 3.07 shall
exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, then to the maximum extent permitted by
applicable law any subsequent reduction in such interest rate will not reduce the rate of interest
payable pursuant to this Section 3.07 below the maximum rate permitted by applicable law until the
total amount of interest accrued equals the absolute amount of interest that would have accrued
(without additional interest thereon) if such otherwise applicable interest rate as set forth in
this Section 3.07 had at all relevant times been in effect.
(b) Except as provided in Section 3.07(e), each Advance will be either a Base Rate Advance or
a LIBOR Advance as provided in this Section 3.07. Each such Advance will be a Base Rate Advance
for the period from the date of its borrowing to (but excluding) the third Business Day following
the Liquidity Providers receipt of the Notice of Borrowing for such Advance. Thereafter, such
Advance shall be a LIBOR Advance; provided that a Provider Advance shall always be a LIBOR
Advance unless the Borrower elects otherwise.
(c) Each LIBOR Advance shall bear interest during each Interest Period at a rate per annum
equal to the LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin for such LIBOR Advance,
payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period and, in the event of the payment of
principal of such LIBOR Advance on a day other than such last day, on the date of such payment (to
the extent of interest accrued on the amount of principal repaid.
(d) Each Base Rate Advance shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus
the Applicable Margin for such Base Rate Advance, payable in arrears on each
Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
17
Regular Distribution Date and, in the event of the payment of principal of such Base Rate
Advance on a day other than a Regular Distribution Date, on the date of such payment (to the extent
of interest accrued on the amount of principal repaid).
(e) Each outstanding Unapplied Non-Extension Advance shall bear interest in an amount equal to
the Investment Earnings plus the Applicable Margin on amounts on deposit in the Class A Cash
Collateral Account for such Unapplied Non-Extension Advance on the amount of such Unapplied
Non-Extension Advance, from time to time, payable in arrears on each Regular Distribution Date.
(f) Each amount not paid when due hereunder (whether fees, commissions, expenses or other
amounts or installments of interest on Advances but excluding Advances) shall bear interest, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus 2.0% per annum
until paid.
(g) If at any time, the Liquidity Provider shall have determined (which determination shall be
conclusive and binding upon the Borrower, absent manifest error) that, by reason of circumstances
affecting the relevant interbank lending market generally, the LIBOR Rate determined or to be
determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the
Liquidity Provider (as conclusively certified by the Liquidity Provider, absent manifest error) of
making or maintaining Advances, the Liquidity Provider shall give facsimile or telephonic notice
thereof (a Rate Determination Notice) to the Borrower. If such notice is given, then the
outstanding principal amount of the LIBOR Advances shall be converted to Base Rate Advances
effective from the date of the Rate Determination Notice; provided that the Applicable
Liquidity Rate in respect of such Base Rate Advances shall be increased by one per cent (1.00%).
The Liquidity Provider shall withdraw a Rate Determination Notice given hereunder when the
Liquidity Provider determines that the circumstances giving rise to such Rate Determination Notice
no longer apply to the Liquidity Provider, and the Base Rate Advances shall be converted to LIBOR
Advances effective as the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period after the date of such
withdrawal. Each change in the Base Rate shall become effective immediately. The rates of interest
specified in this Section 3.07 with respect to any Advance or other amount shall be referred to as
the Applicable Liquidity Rate.
Section 3.08 Replacement of Borrower. Subject to Section 5.02, from time to time and
subject to the successor Borrowers meeting the eligibility requirements set forth in Section 6.09
of the Intercreditor Agreement applicable to the Subordination Agent, upon the effective date and
time specified in a written and completed Notice of Replacement Subordination Agent in
substantially the form of Annex VIII (a Notice of Replacement Subordination Agent) delivered to
the Liquidity Provider by the then Borrower, the successor Borrower designated therein shall become
the Borrower for all purposes hereunder.
Section 3.09 Funding Loss Indemnification. The Borrower shall pay to the Liquidity
Provider, upon the request of the Liquidity Provider, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient
(in the reasonable opinion of the Liquidity Provider) to compensate it for any loss, cost or
expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or redeployment of deposits or other funds
Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
18
acquired by the Liquidity Provider to fund or maintain any LIBOR Advance (but excluding loss
of the Applicable Margin or anticipated profits) incurred as a result of:
(1) Any repayment of a LIBOR Advance on a date other than the last day of the Interest
Period for such Advance; or
(2) Any failure by the Borrower to borrow a LIBOR Advance on the date for borrowing
specified in the relevant notice under Section 2.02.
Section 3.10 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, if
any change in any law, rule or regulation applicable to or binding on the Liquidity Provider, or
any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central
bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance
by the Liquidity Provider with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of
any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall make it unlawful or impossible for the
Liquidity Provider to maintain or fund its LIBOR Advances, then upon notice to the Borrower and
American by the Liquidity Provider, the outstanding principal amount of the LIBOR Advances shall be
converted to Base Rate Advances (a) immediately upon demand of the Liquidity Provider, if such
change or compliance with such request, in the reasonable judgment of the Liquidity Provider,
requires immediate conversion; or (b) at the expiration of the last Interest Period to expire
before the effective date of any such change or request. The Liquidity Provider will notify the
Borrower and American as promptly as practicable of any event that will or to its knowledge is
reasonably likely to lead to the conversion of LIBOR Advances to Base Rate Advances under this
Section 3.10; provided that a failure by the Liquidity Provider to notify the Borrower or
American of an event that is reasonably likely to lead to such a conversion prior to the time that
it is determined that such event will lead to such a conversion shall not prejudice the rights of
the Liquidity Provider under this Section 3.10. The Liquidity Provider agrees to investigate all
commercially reasonable alternatives for avoiding the need for such conversion, including, without
limitation, designating a different Lending Office, if such designation or other action would avoid
the need to convert such LIBOR Advances to Base Rate Advances; provided that the foregoing
shall not obligate the Liquidity Provider to take any action that would, in its reasonable
judgment, cause the Liquidity Provider to incur any material loss or cost, unless the Borrower or
American agrees to reimburse or indemnify the Liquidity Provider therefor. If no such designation
or other action is effected, or, if effected, fails to avoid the need for conversion of the LIBOR
Advances to Base Rate Advances, American may arrange for a Replacement Liquidity Facility in
accordance with Section 3.05(e) of the Intercreditor Agreement.

Section 7.08 Binding Effect; Participations. (a) This Agreement shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the Liquidity Provider and their respective
successors and permitted assigns, except that neither the Liquidity Provider (except as otherwise
provided in this Section 7.08) nor (except as contemplated by Section 3.08) the Borrower shall have
the right to assign, pledge or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any

The Liquidity Provider may, in connection with any Participation or proposed Participation
pursuant to this Section 7.08(b), disclose to the participant or proposed participant any
information relating to the Operative Agreements or to the parties thereto furnished to the
Liquidity Provider thereunder or in connection therewith and permitted to be disclosed by the
Liquidity Provider; provided, however, that prior to any such disclosure, the
participant or proposed participant shall agree in writing for the express benefit of the Borrower
and American to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information included therein
(subject to customary exceptions). The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Liquidity
Providers source of funds may derive in part from its participants. Accordingly, in determining
amounts due by the Borrower to the Liquidity Provider pursuant to Section 3.01 and Section 3.03 of
this Agreement, references in this Agreement to determinations, reserve and capital adequacy
requirements, increased costs, reduced receipts, additional amounts due pursuant to Section 3.03
and the like as they pertain to the Liquidity Provider shall be deemed also to include those of
each of its participants that are commercial banking institutions and of whose participation the
Borrower has been notified, in each case up to the maximum amount that would have been incurred by
or attributable to the Liquidity Provider directly had there not been any grant of a Participation
by the Liquidity Provider, and references to the Liquidity Provider therein and in related
definitions shall be treated as references to such participants where applicable; provided
that in any event, neither American nor the Borrower shall be required to pay any amount under
Section 3.01 or Section 3.03 greater than it would have been required to pay had there not been any
grant of a Participation by the Liquidity Provider.
(c) The Liquidity Provider agrees that, as a condition of any Participation, the participant
shall (i) represent to the Liquidity Provider (for the benefit of the Liquidity Provider and the
Borrower) that under applicable law and treaties, no taxes will be required to be withheld with
respect to any income derived by such participant from the transactions contemplated by the
Operative Agreements, (ii) furnish to the Liquidity Provider and the Borrower two properly
completed executed originals of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Form W-8BEN or
Form W-9, as appropriate, or other applicable form, certificate or document prescribed by the
Internal Revenue Service certifying, in each case, such participants entitlement to a complete
exemption from United States federal withholding tax for all income derived by it from the
transactions contemplated by the Operative Agreements, (iii) agree (for the benefit of the
Liquidity Provider and the Borrower) to provide each of the Liquidity Provider and the Borrower a
new Form W-8ECI, Form W-8BEN or Form W-9, as appropriate, or other applicable form, certificate or
document (A) on or before the date that any such form, certificate or document expires or becomes
obsolete or (B) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form,
certificate or document previously delivered by it and prior to the immediately following due date
of any payment to be made to the participant pursuant to the Operative Agreements, certifying that
such participant is entitled to a complete exemption from United States federal withholding tax for
all income derived by it from the transactions contemplated by the Operative Agreements and (iv)
agree (for the benefit of the Liquidity Provider and the Borrower) to provide such other forms or
documents as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower or required by applicable law to establish
that all income derived by it from the transactions contemplated by the Operative Agreements is
exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of Covered Taxes. Unless the Borrower has received forms
or other documents reasonably satisfactory to it indicating that payments to be made pursuant to
the Operative
Revolving Credit Agreement (Class A)
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
26
Agreements are not subject to United States federal withholding tax, the Borrower may withhold
taxes as required by law from such payments at the applicable statutory rate; provided
that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Liquidity Provider agrees to be the sole withholding agent
relating to any Participation. The Liquidity Provider shall provide to the Borrower such
information as the Borrower may reasonably request about the Liquidity Provider or a participant to
satisfy any reporting or other Tax obligations of the Borrower with respect to this Agreement;
provided that the Liquidity Provider shall not be required to provide any such information
(other than the names of participants, percentage of participation and copies of such participants
withholding tax forms) which is not within its possession or which is confidential.
(d) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 7.08, the Liquidity Provider may
assign and pledge all or any portion of the Advances owing to it to any Federal Reserve Bank or the
United States Treasury as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank;
provided that any payment in respect of such assigned Advances made by the Borrower to the
Liquidity Provider in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall satisfy the Borrowers
obligations hereunder in respect of such assigned Advance to the extent of such payment. No such
assignment shall release the Liquidity Provider from its obligations hereunder.
Section 7.09 Severability. To the extent permitted by applicable law, any provision
of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Account, as the case may be, as an Eligible Deposit Account and shall transfer any cash and/or any

respect of accrued interest on the Class A Certificates or the Class B Certificates (at the Stated
Interest Rate for such Class of Certificates) (other than any amount of interest which was due and

the Subordination Agent shall request a drawing (each such drawing, an Interest Drawing)

Interest Drawing under the Class B Liquidity Facility and all amounts withdrawn by the
Subordination Agent from the Class B Cash Collateral Account, and payable in each case to the Class
B Certificateholders or the Class B Trustee, shall be promptly distributed to the Class B Trustee.
(c) Downgrade Drawings. Each Liquidity Provider will promptly, but in any event
within ten days of its receipt of notice thereof, deliver notice of any downgrading of its debt
ratings to the Subordination Agent and American. If at any time a Downgrade Event occurs with
respect to any Liquidity Provider, within 10 days after such downgrading (but not later than the
expiration date of each Liquidity Facility issued by such Liquidity Provider in respect of which
the Downgrade Event occurs (a Downgraded Facility)), such Liquidity Provider or American
may arrange for a Replacement Liquidity Provider to issue and deliver a Replacement Liquidity
Facility to the Subordination Agent. If a Downgraded Facility has not been replaced in accordance
with the terms of this paragraph, the Subordination Agent shall, on such 10th day (or if such 10th
day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day) (or, if earlier, on the expiration
date of such Downgraded Facility), request a drawing in accordance with and to the extent permitted
by such Downgraded Facility (such drawing, a Downgrade Drawing) of all available and
undrawn amounts thereunder. Amounts drawn pursuant to a Downgrade Drawing shall be maintained and
invested as provided in Section 3.05(f). Subject to Section 3.05(e)(iii), the applicable Liquidity
Provider may also arrange for a Replacement Liquidity Provider to issue and deliver a Replacement
Liquidity Facility at any time after such Downgrade Drawing so long as such Downgrade Drawing has
not been reimbursed in full to such Liquidity Provider.
(d) Non-Extension Drawings. If any Liquidity Facility with respect to any Class of
Certificates is scheduled to expire on a date (the Stated Expiration Date) prior to the
date that is 15 days after the Final Legal Distribution Date for such Class of Certificates, then
the following provisions shall apply:
(i) In the case of any Liquidity Facility having extension provisions identical to those set
forth in Section 2.10 of either Liquidity Facility in effect on the Closing Date, if before the
25th day prior to any anniversary date of the Closing Date (such 25th day, the Notice
Date) the Liquidity Provider shall have advised the Subordination Agent that such Liquidity
Facility shall not be extended beyond the immediately following anniversary date of the Closing
Date and on or before the Notice Date such Liquidity Facility shall not have been replaced in
accordance with Section 3.05(e), the Subordination Agent shall, on the Notice Date (or as soon
thereafter as possible but prior to the date of expiration of the expiring Liquidity Facility (a
Non-Extended Facility)), in accordance with the terms of such Non-Extended Facility,
request a drawing under such Non-Extended Facility (such drawing, a Non-Extension
Drawing) of all available and undrawn amounts thereunder.
(ii) In the case of any other Liquidity Facility, no earlier than the 60th day and no later
than the 40th day prior to the then applicable Stated Expiration Date, the Subordination Agent
shall request in writing that such Liquidity Provider extend the Stated Expiration Date to the
earlier of (i) the date that is 15 days after the Final Legal Distribution Date for such Class of
Intercreditor Agreement (2011-2)
AA Aircraft EETC
33
Certificates and (ii) the date that is the day immediately preceding the 364th day after the last
day of the Consent Period (unless the obligations of such Liquidity Provider thereunder are
earlier terminated in accordance with such Liquidity Facility). Whether or not the applicable
Liquidity Provider has received a request from the Subordination Agent, such Liquidity Provider
shall by notice (the Consent Notice) to the Subordination Agent, during the period
commencing on the date that is 60 days prior to the then effective Stated Expiration Date (or if
earlier, the date of such Liquidity Providers receipt of such request, if any, from the
Subordination Agent) and ending on the date that is 25 days prior to such Stated Expiration Date
(the Consent Period) advise the Subordination Agent whether, in its sole discretion, it
agrees to so extend the Stated Expiration Date; provided, that such extension shall not be
effective with respect to such Liquidity Provider if, by notice (the Withdrawal Notice)
to the Subordination Agent prior to the end of the Consent Period, such Liquidity Provider revokes
its Consent Notice. If a Liquidity Provider advises the Subordination Agent on or before the end
of the Consent Period that such Stated Expiration Date shall not be so extended or fails to
irrevocably and unconditionally advise the Subordination Agent on or before the end of the Consent
Period that such Stated Expiration Date shall be so extended or gives a Withdrawal Notice to the
Subordination Agent prior to the end of the Consent Period (and, in each case, if such Liquidity
Provider shall not have been replaced in accordance with Section 3.05(e)), the Subordination Agent
shall, on the date on which the Consent Period ends (or as soon as possible thereafter but prior to
the Stated Expiration Date), in accordance with and to the extent permitted by the terms of the
Non-Extended Facility, request a Non-Extension Drawing under such Non-Extended Facility of all
available and undrawn amounts thereunder.
Amounts drawn pursuant to a Non-Extension Drawing shall be maintained and invested in
accordance with Section 3.05(f).
(e) Issuance of Replacement Liquidity Facility. (i) Subject to Section 3.05(e)(iii)
and the agreements, if any, in the applicable Fee Letter, at any time, American may, at its option
and at its own expense, with cause or without cause, arrange for a Replacement Liquidity Facility
to replace any Liquidity Facility for any Class of Certificates (including any Replacement
Liquidity Facility provided pursuant to
Section 3.05(e)(ii)); provided, however, that if the
initial Liquidity Provider is replaced it shall be replaced with respect to all Liquidity
Facilities under which it is a Liquidity Provider. If such Replacement Liquidity Facility is
provided at any time after a Downgrade Drawing, a Non-Extension Drawing or a Special Termination
Drawing has been made, all funds on deposit in the relevant Cash Collateral Account resulting from
such Downgrade Drawing or Non-Extension Drawing will be returned to the Liquidity Provider being
replaced.
(ii) If any Liquidity Provider shall determine not to extend its Liquidity Facility in
accordance with Section 3.05(d), then such Liquidity Provider may, at its option, arrange for a
Replacement Liquidity Facility to replace such Liquidity Facility during the period no earlier than
40 days and no later than 25 days prior to the then effective Stated Expiration Date of such
Liquidity Facility. At any time after a Non-Extension Drawing has been made under any Liquidity
Facility, the Liquidity Provider thereunder may, at its option, arrange for a Replacement Liquidity
Facility to replace the Liquidity Facility under which such Non-Extension Drawing has been made.

(iii) No Replacement Liquidity Facility arranged by American or a Liquidity Provider in
accordance with clause (i) or (ii) above or pursuant to Section 3.05(c), respectively, shall become
effective and no such Replacement Liquidity Facility shall be deemed a Liquidity Facility under
the Operative Agreements, unless and until (A) each of the conditions referred to in sub-clauses
(iv)(x) and (z) below shall have been satisfied, (B) if such Replacement Liquidity Facility shall
materially adversely affect the rights, remedies, interests or obligations of the Class A
Certificateholders or the Class B Certificateholders under any of the Operative Agreements, the
applicable Trustee shall have consented, in writing, to the execution and issuance of such
Replacement Liquidity Facility and (C) in the case of a Replacement Liquidity Facility arranged by
a Liquidity Provider under Section 3.05(e)(ii) or pursuant to Section 3.05(c), such Replacement
Liquidity Facility is reasonably acceptable to American.
(iv) In connection with the issuance of each Replacement Liquidity Facility, the
Subordination Agent shall (x) prior to the issuance of such Replacement Liquidity Facility, obtain
written confirmation from each Rating Agency that such Replacement Liquidity Facility will not
cause a reduction, withdrawal or suspension of any rating then in effect for any Class of
Certificates by such Rating Agency (without regard to any downgrading of any rating of the
Liquidity Provider being replaced pursuant to Section 3.05(c)), (y) pay all Liquidity Obligations
then owing to the replaced Liquidity Provider (which payment shall be made first from available
funds in the applicable Cash Collateral Account as described in Section 3.05(f), and thereafter
from any other available source, including, without limitation, a drawing under the Replacement
Liquidity Facility) and (z) cause the issuer of the Replacement Liquidity Facility to deliver the
Replacement Liquidity Facility to the Subordination Agent, together with a legal opinion opining
that such Replacement Liquidity Facility is an enforceable obligation of such Replacement Liquidity
Provider.
(v) Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in clauses (iii) and (iv) of this Section
3.05(e) with respect to a Replacement Liquidity Facility, (1) the replaced Liquidity Facility shall
terminate, (2) the Subordination Agent shall, if and to the extent so requested by American or the
Liquidity Provider being replaced, execute and deliver any certificate or other instrument required
in order to terminate the replaced Liquidity Facility, shall surrender the replaced Liquidity
Facility to the Liquidity Provider being replaced and shall execute and deliver the Replacement
Liquidity Facility and any associated Fee Letter, (3) each of the parties hereto shall enter into
any amendments to this Agreement necessary to give effect to (a) the replacement of the applicable
Liquidity Provider with the applicable Replacement Liquidity Provider and (b) the replacement of
the applicable Liquidity Facility with the applicable Replacement Liquidity Facility, and (4) the
applicable Replacement Liquidity Provider shall be deemed to be a Liquidity Provider with the
rights and obligations of a Liquidity Provider hereunder and under the other Operative Agreements
and such Replacement Liquidity Facility shall be deemed to be a Liquidity Facility hereunder and
under the other Operative Agreements.
(f) Cash Collateral Accounts; Withdrawals; Investments. In the event the
Subordination Agent shall draw all Available Amounts under the Class A Liquidity Facility or the
Class B Liquidity Facility pursuant to Section 3.05(c), 3.05(d), 3.05(i) or 3.05(k), or in the
event amounts are to be deposited in the Class A Cash Collateral Account or the Class B Cash
Collateral Account pursuant to subclause (A) or (B) of clause fourth of Section 3.02, amounts so
drawn or to be deposited, as the case may be, shall be deposited by the Subordination Agent in
Intercreditor Agreement (2011-2)
AA Aircraft EETC
35
the Class A Cash Collateral Account or the Class B Cash Collateral Account, as applicable.
All amounts on deposit in each Cash Collateral Account shall be invested and reinvested in Eligible
Investments in accordance with Section 2.02(b).
On each Interest Payment Date (or, in the case of any Special Distribution Date with respect
to the distribution of a Special Payment, on such Special Distribution Date), Investment Earnings
on amounts on deposit in each Cash Collateral Account with respect to any Liquidity Facility (or in
the case of any Special Distribution Date with respect to the distribution of a Special Payment, so
long as no Indenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under any Indenture, a
fraction of such Investment Earnings equal to the Section 2.04 Fraction) shall be deposited in the
Collection Account (or, in the case of any Special Distribution Date with respect to the
distribution of a Special Payment, the Special Payments Account) and applied on such Interest
Payment Date (or Special Distribution Date, as the case may be) in accordance with Section 3.02 or
3.03 (as applicable). The Subordination Agent shall deliver a written statement to American and
each Liquidity Provider one day prior to each Interest Payment Date and Special Distribution Date
setting forth the aggregate amount of Investment Earnings held in the Cash Collateral Accounts as
of such date. In addition, from and after the date funds are so deposited, the Subordination Agent
shall make withdrawals from such accounts as follows:
(i) on each Distribution Date, the Subordination Agent shall, to the extent it shall
not have received funds to pay accrued and unpaid interest due and owing on the Class A
Certificates (at the Stated Interest Rate for the Class A Certificates) (other than any
amount of interest which was due and payable in respect of the Class A Certificates on such
Distribution Date but which remains unpaid due to the failure of the Depositary to pay any
amount of accrued interest on the Deposits on such Distribution Date) after giving effect to
the subordination provisions of this Agreement, withdraw from the Class A Cash Collateral
Account, and pay to the Class A Trustee, an amount equal to the lesser of (x) an amount
necessary to pay accrued and unpaid interest (at the Stated Interest Rate for the Class A
Certificates) on the Class A Certificates and (y) the amount on deposit in the Class A Cash
Collateral Account;
(ii) on each Distribution Date, the Subordination Agent shall, to the extent it shall
not have received funds to pay accrued and unpaid interest due and owing on the Class B

or pursuant to Section 2.03 of the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, the Subordination
Agent shall withdraw from the Class A Cash Collateral Account such amount as is necessary so
that, after giving effect to the reduction of the Pool Balance on such date (and any
reduction in the amounts on deposit in the Class A
Intercreditor Agreement (2011-2)
AA Aircraft EETC

Cash Collateral Account resulting from a prior withdrawal of amounts on deposit in the Class A Cash
Collateral Account on such date) and any transfer of Investment Earnings from such Cash
Collateral Account to the Collection Account or the Special Payments Account on such date,
an amount equal to the sum of the Required Amount (with respect to the Class A Liquidity
Facility) plus (if on a Distribution Date not coinciding with an Interest Payment Date)
Investment Earnings on deposit in such Cash Collateral Account (after giving effect to any
such transfer of Investment Earnings) will remain on deposit in the Class A Cash Collateral
Account and shall first, pay such withdrawn amount to the Class A Liquidity Provider until
the Class A Liquidity Obligations owing to the Class A Liquidity Provider shall have been
paid in full, and second, deposit any remaining withdrawn amount in the Collection Account;
(iv) on each date on which the Pool Balance of the Class B Trust shall have been
reduced by payments made to the Class B Certificateholders pursuant to Section 3.02 hereof,
the Subordination Agent shall withdraw from the Class B Cash Collateral Account such amount
as is necessary so that, after giving effect to the reduction of the Pool Balance on such
date (and any reduction in the amounts on deposit in the Class B Cash Collateral Account
resulting from a prior withdrawal of amounts on deposit in the Class B Cash Collateral
Account on such date) and any transfer of Investment Earnings from such Cash Collateral
Account to the Collection Account or the Special Payments Account on such date, an amount
equal to the sum of the Required Amount (with respect to the Class B Liquidity Facility)
plus (if on a Distribution Date not coinciding with an Interest Payment Date) Investment
Earnings on deposit in such Cash Collateral Account (after giving effect to any such
transfer of Investment Earnings) will remain on deposit in the Class B Cash Collateral
Account and shall first, pay such withdrawn amount to the Class B Liquidity Provider until
the Class B Liquidity Obligations owing to such Liquidity Provider shall have been paid in
full, and second, deposit any remaining withdrawn amount in the Collection Account;
(v) if a Replacement Liquidity Facility for any relevant Class of Certificates shall be
delivered to the Subordination Agent following the date on which funds have been deposited
into the Cash Collateral Account for such Class of Certificates, the Subordination Agent
shall withdraw all amounts remaining on deposit in such Cash Collateral Account and shall
pay such amounts to the replaced Liquidity Provider, if any, until all Liquidity Obligations
owed to such Person shall have been paid in full, and deposit any remaining amount in the
Collection Account; and
(vi) following (x) the payment of Final Distributions or (y) the Final Legal
Distribution Date with respect to any Class of Certificates covered by a Liquidity Facility,
on the date on which the Subordination Agent shall have been notified by the Liquidity
Provider for such Class of Certificates that the Liquidity Obligations owed to such
Liquidity Provider have been paid in full, or, if earlier, the first Business Day after such
Final Legal Distribution Date, the Subordination Agent shall withdraw all amounts on deposit
in the Cash Collateral Account in respect of such Class of Certificates, if any, and shall
deposit such amounts in the Collection Account.

(g) Reinstatement. With respect to any Interest Drawing under the Liquidity Facility
for any relevant Trust, upon the reimbursement of the applicable Liquidity Provider for all or any
part of the amount of such Interest Drawing, together with any accrued interest thereon, the
Available Amount of such Liquidity Facility shall be reinstated by an amount equal to the amount of
such Interest Drawing so reimbursed to the applicable Liquidity Provider but not to exceed the
Stated Amount for such Liquidity Facility; provided, however, that the Available Amount of such
Liquidity Facility shall not be so reinstated in part or in full at any time if (x) both a
Performing Note Deficiency exists and a Liquidity Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing with respect to the relevant Liquidity Facility or (y) a Final Drawing, Downgrade
Drawing, Non-Extension Drawing or Special Termination Drawing shall have occurred with respect to
such Liquidity Facility or an Interest Drawing shall have been converted into a Final Drawing. In
the event that, with respect to any particular Liquidity Facility, (i) funds are withdrawn from the
related Cash Collateral Account pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of Section 3.05(f) or (ii) such
Liquidity Facility shall become a Downgraded Facility or a Non-Extended Facility at a time when
unreimbursed Interest Drawings under such Liquidity Facility have reduced the Available Amount
thereunder to zero, then funds received by the Subordination Agent at any time, other than (x) any
time when both a Performing Note Deficiency exists and a Liquidity Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing with respect to such Liquidity Facility or (y) any time after a Final
Drawing shall have occurred with respect to such Liquidity Facility shall be deposited in such Cash
Collateral Account as and to the extent provided in clause fourth of Section 3.02 and applied in
accordance with Section 3.05(f).
(h) Reimbursement. The amount of each drawing under the Liquidity Facilities shall be
due and payable, together with interest thereon, on the dates and at the rates, respectively,
provided in the Liquidity Facilities.
(i) Final Drawing. Upon receipt from a Liquidity Provider of a Termination Notice
with respect to its applicable Liquidity Facility, the Subordination Agent shall, not later than
the date specified in such Termination Notice, in accordance with the terms of such Liquidity
Facility, request a drawing under such Liquidity Facility of all available and undrawn amounts
thereunder (a Final Drawing). Amounts drawn pursuant to a Final Drawing shall be
maintained and invested in accordance with Section 3.05(f).
(j) Adjustments of Stated Amount. Promptly following each date on which the Required
Amount of the Liquidity Facility for a relevant Class of Certificates is reduced as a result of a
reduction in the Pool Balance with respect to such Certificates or otherwise, the Subordination
Agent shall, if any such Liquidity Facility provides for reductions of the Stated Amount of such
Liquidity Facility and if such reductions are not automatic, request such Liquidity Provider for
such Class of Certificates to reduce such Stated Amount to an amount equal to the Required Amount
with respect to such Liquidity Facility (as calculated by the Subordination Agent after giving
effect to such payment). Each such request shall be made in accordance with the provisions of the
applicable Liquidity Facility.
(k) Special Termination Drawing. Upon receipt from a Liquidity Provider of a Special
Termination Notice with respect to any Liquidity Facility, the Subordination Agent shall, not later
than the date specified in such Special Termination Notice, in accordance with the terms of such
Liquidity Facility, request a drawing under such Liquidity Facility of all available
Intercreditor Agreement (2011-2)

and undrawn amounts thereunder (a Special Termination Drawing). Amounts drawn
pursuant to a Special Termination Drawing shall be maintained and invested in accordance with
Section 3.05(f) hereof.
(l) Relation to Subordination Provisions. Interest Drawings under the Liquidity
Facilities and withdrawals from the Cash Collateral Accounts, in each case, in respect of interest

Certificates, notwithstanding Sections 2.01(b) and 3.02.
(m) Assignment of Liquidity Facility. The Subordination Agent agrees not to consent
to the assignment by any Liquidity Provider of any of its rights or obligations under any Liquidity
Facility or any interest therein unless (i) American shall have consented to such assignment and
(ii) each Rating Agency shall have provided a Ratings Confirmation with respect to each Class of
Certificates then rated by such Rating Agency in connection with such assignment; provided, that
the Subordination Agent shall consent to such assignment if the conditions in the foregoing clauses
(i) and (ii) are satisfied, and the foregoing is not intended to and shall not be construed to
limit the rights of any initial Liquidity Provider under Section 3.05(e)(ii).
ARTICLE IV
EXERCISE OF REMEDIES
Section 4.01. Directions from the Controlling Party. (a) (i) Following the
occurrence and during the continuation of an Indenture Event of Default under any Indenture, the
Controlling Party shall direct the Subordination Agent, as the holder of the Equipment Notes issued
under such Indenture, which in turn shall direct the Loan Trustee under such Indenture, in the
exercise of remedies available to the holders of such Equipment Notes, including, without
limitation, the ability to vote all such Equipment Notes held by the Subordination Agent in favor
of Accelerating such Equipment Notes in accordance with the provisions of such Indenture. Subject
to Section 4.01(a)(iii), if the Equipment Notes issued pursuant to any Indenture have been
Accelerated following an Indenture Event of Default with respect thereto, the Controlling Party may
direct the Subordination Agent to sell, assign, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of and
deliver all (but not less than all) of such Equipment Notes to any Person at public or private
sale, at any location at the option of the Controlling Party, all upon such terms and conditions as
the Controlling Party may reasonably deem advisable and in accordance with applicable law.
(ii) Following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Indenture Event of Default
under any Indenture, in the exercise of remedies pursuant to such Indenture, the Loan Trustee under
such Indenture may be directed to lease the related Aircraft to any Person (including American) so
long as the Loan Trustee in doing so acts in a commercially reasonable manner within the meaning
of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any applicable jurisdiction (including
Sections 9-610 and 9-627 thereof).
(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as any Certificates remain Outstanding, during the
period ending on the date which is nine months after the earlier of (x) the Acceleration of the
Equipment Notes issued pursuant to any Indenture or (y) the occurrence of
Intercreditor Agreement (2011-2)
AA Aircraft EETC
39
an American Bankruptcy Event, without the consent of each Trustee (other than the Trustee of
any Trust all of the Certificates of which are held or beneficially owned by American and/or its
Affiliates), no Aircraft subject to the Lien of such Indenture or such Equipment Notes may be sold
if the net proceeds from such sale would be less than the Minimum Sale Price for such Aircraft or
such Equipment Notes.
(iv) Upon the occurrence and continuation of an Indenture Event of Default under any
Indenture, the Subordination Agent will obtain three desktop appraisals from the Appraisers
selected by the Controlling Party setting forth the current market value, current lease rate and
distressed value (in each case, as defined by the International Society of Transport Aircraft
Trading or any successor organization) of the Aircraft subject to such Indenture (each such
appraisal, an Appraisal and the current market value appraisals being referred to herein
as the Post-Default Appraisals). For so long as any Indenture Event of Default shall be
continuing under any Indenture, and without limiting the right of the Controlling Party to request
more frequent Appraisals, the Subordination Agent will obtain updated Appraisals on the date that
is 364 days from the date of the most recent Appraisal (or if an American Bankruptcy Event shall
have occurred and is continuing, on the date that is 180 days from the date of the most recent
Appraisal) and shall (acting on behalf of each Trustee) post such Appraisals on DTCs Internet
bulletin board or make such other commercially reasonable efforts as the Subordination Agent may
deem appropriate to make such Appraisals available to all Certificateholders.
(b) Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Indenture Event of Default under
any Indenture, the Controlling Party shall take such actions as it may reasonably deem most
effectual to complete the sale or other disposition of the relevant Aircraft or Equipment Notes.
In addition, in lieu of any sale, assignment, contract to sell or other disposition, the
Controlling Party may maintain or cause the Subordination Agent to maintain possession of such
Equipment Notes and continue to apply monies received in respect of such Equipment Notes in
accordance with Article III hereof. In addition, in lieu of such sale, assignment, contract to
sell or other disposition, or in lieu of such maintenance of possession, the Controlling Party may
direct the Subordination Agent to, subject to the terms and conditions of the related Indenture,
instruct the Loan Trustee under such Indenture to foreclose on the Lien on the related Aircraft or
to take any other remedial action permitted under such Indenture or under any applicable law.
(c) If following an American Bankruptcy Event and during the pendency thereof, the Controlling
Party receives a proposal from or on behalf of American to restructure the financing of any one or
more of the Aircraft, the Controlling Party shall promptly thereafter give the Subordination Agent,
each Trustee and each Liquidity Provider that has not made a Final Drawing notice of the material
economic terms and conditions of such restructuring proposal whereupon the Subordination Agent
acting on behalf of each Trustee shall post such terms and conditions of such restructuring
proposal on DTCs Internet bulletin board or make such other commercially reasonable efforts as the
Subordination Agent may deem appropriate to make such terms and conditions available to all
Certificateholders. Thereafter, neither the Subordination Agent nor any Trustee, whether acting on
instructions of the Controlling Party or otherwise, may, without the consent of each Trustee and
each Liquidity Provider that has not made a Final Drawing, enter into any term sheet, stipulation
or other agreement (a Restructuring Arrangement) (whether in the form of an adequate
protection stipulation, an extension under
Intercreditor Agreement (2011-2)
AA Aircraft EETC
40
Section 1110(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) to effect any such restructuring proposal
with or on behalf of American unless and until the material economic terms and conditions of such
restructuring proposal shall have been made available to all Certificateholders and each Liquidity
Provider that has not made a Final Drawing for a period of not less than 15 calendar days (except
that such requirement shall not apply to any such term sheet, stipulation or other agreement that
is to be effective on or as of any date occurring during the 60-Day Period and that is initially
effective for a period not exceeding three months from the expiry of the 60-Day Period (an
Interim Restructuring Arrangement)). The foregoing provisions of this Section 4.01(c):
(i) shall not apply to any extension of a Restructuring Arrangement with respect to which such
provisions have been complied with in connection with the original entry thereof if the possibility
of such extension has been disclosed in satisfaction of the notification requirements of such
provisions and such extension shall not amend or modify any of the other terms and conditions of
such Restructuring Arrangement and (ii) shall apply to the initial extension of an Interim
Restructuring Arrangement beyond the three months following the expiry of the 60-Day Period but not
to any subsequent extension of such Interim Restructuring Arrangement, if the possibility of such
subsequent extension has been disclosed in satisfaction of the notification requirements of such
provisions and such subsequent extension shall not amend or modify any of the other terms and
conditions of such Interim Restructuring Arrangement. In the event that any Certificateholder
gives irrevocable notice of the exercise of its right to purchase all (but not less than all) of
the Class of Certificates represented by the then Controlling Party pursuant to the applicable
Trust Agreement, prior to the expiry of the 15-day notice period specified above, such Controlling
Party may not direct the Subordination Agent or any Trustee to enter into any such restructuring
proposal with respect to any of the Aircraft, unless and until such Certificateholder shall fail to
purchase such Class of Certificates on the date that it is required to make such purchase.
Section 4.02. Remedies Cumulative. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each
and every right, power and remedy given to the Trustees, the Liquidity Providers, the Controlling
Party or the Subordination Agent specifically or otherwise in this Agreement shall be cumulative
and shall be in addition to every other right, power and remedy herein specifically given or now or
hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute, and each and every right, power and remedy
whether specifically herein given or otherwise existing may, subject always to the terms and
conditions hereof, be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as may be deemed
expedient by any Trustee, any Liquidity Provider, the Controlling Party or the Subordination Agent,
as appropriate, and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of any right, power or remedy
shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right to exercise at the same time or thereafter any
other right, power or remedy. No delay or omission by any Trustee, any Liquidity Provider, the
Controlling Party or the Subordination Agent in the exercise of any right, remedy or power or in
the pursuit of any remedy shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, impair any such right,
power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any default or to be an acquiescence therein.
Section 4.03. Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case any party to this Agreement
(including the Controlling Party in such capacity) shall have instituted any Proceeding to enforce
any right, power or remedy under this Agreement by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such
Proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined
adversely to the Person instituting such Proceeding, then and in
Intercreditor Agreement (2011-2)
AA Aircraft EETC
41
every such case each such party shall, subject to any determination in such Proceeding, be
restored to its former position and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of such
party shall continue as if no such Proceeding had been instituted.
Section 4.04. Right of Certificateholders and the Liquidity Providers to Receive Payments
Not to Be Impaired. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding but subject to
each Trust Agreement, the right of any Certificateholder or any Liquidity Provider, respectively,
to receive payments hereunder (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 3.02) when due,
or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the applicable
Distribution Date, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Certificateholder
or such Liquidity Provider, respectively.

have received indemnification against any risks that may be incurred in connection therewith in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to it, including, without limitation, adequate advances
against costs (including fees and expenses) that may be incurred by it in connection therewith.
The Subordination Agent shall not be required to take any action under Article IV, nor shall any
other provision of this Agreement or any other Operative Agreement be deemed to impose a duty on
the Subordination Agent to take any action, if the Subordination Agent shall have been advised by

Intercreditor Agreement (2011-2)

court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Subordination Agent and the appointment
of a successor Subordination Agent.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no resignation or removal of the Subordination Agent shall be

Agent hereunder, provided, that such corporation, bank, trust company or other financial
institution shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under Section 6.09, without the execution or
filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, except that such
corporation, bank, trust company or other financial institution shall give prompt notice of such
transaction to the Liquidity Providers and American.

provided, however, that this Agreement may be supplemented, amended or modified without the consent
of any Trustee or the Subordination Agent in order (i) to cure any ambiguity or omission or to
correct any mistake, (ii) to correct or supplement any provision, or (iii) to make any other
provision in regard to matters or questions arising hereunder that will not materially adversely
affect the interests of any Trustee or the holders of the related Class of Certificates, and
without the consent of any Liquidity Provider if such supplement, amendment or modification is in

amendment or modification (x) would directly or indirectly amend, modify or supersede, or otherwise
conflict with, Section 2.02(b), 3.05(c), 3.05(e), 3.05(f), 3.05(m), 4.01(a)(ii) or 4.01(c), this
proviso of Section 8.01(a), the last sentence of Section 8.01(a), Section 8.01(c), 8.01(d) or 9.06

hereunder from the Equipment Notes or pursuant to the Liquidity Facilities. Nothing contained in
this Section 8.01(a) shall require the consent of a Trustee at any time following the payment of
Final Distributions with respect to the related Class of Certificates. If the Replacement
Liquidity Facility for any Liquidity Facility is to be comprised of more than one instrument as
contemplated by the definition of the term Replacement Liquidity Facility, then each party hereto
agrees to amend this Agreement and the other Operative Agreements to incorporate appropriate
mechanics for multiple Liquidity Facilities for a single Trust.
(b) In the event that the Subordination Agent, as the registered holder of any Equipment
Notes, receives a request for its consent to any amendment, supplement, modification, approval,
consent or waiver under such Equipment Notes, the Indenture pursuant to which such Equipment Notes
were issued or the related Participation Agreement, the Parent Guarantee or other related document,
(i) if no Indenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to such
Indenture, the Subordination Agent shall request directions with respect to each series of such
Equipment Notes from the Trustee of the Trust which holds such Equipment Notes and shall vote or
consent in accordance with the directions of such Trustee and (ii) if any Indenture Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to such Indenture, the Subordination
Agent will exercise its voting rights as directed by the Controlling Party, subject to Sections

each Certificateholder holding Certificates representing a Fractional Undivided Interest in the

Section 9.02(a)(3) of such Indenture or deprive any Certificateholder of the benefit of the Lien of
such Indenture on such Collateral, except as provided in connection with the exercise of remedies
under Article IV of such Indenture; (iv) reduce the percentage of the outstanding principal amount
of the Equipment Notes under such Indenture the consent of whose holders is required for any

cannot be modified or waived without the consent of each holder of an Equipment Note under such
Indenture affected thereby.
(c) If Series B Equipment Notes (or Additional Equipment Notes), with respect to all of the

a class of pass through certificates (the Refinancing Certificates) to certificateholders
(the Refinancing Certificateholders) pursuant to a pass through trust agreement (a
Refinancing Trust Agreement) with a trustee (a Refinancing Trustee). A
Refinancing Trust, a Refinancing Trustee and the Refinancing Certificates shall be subject to all
of the provisions of this Agreement in the same manner as the Trust, the Trustee and the

Certificates, may rank pari passu with similar claims in respect of the Class A Liquidity
Facility and (B) in the case of any Refinancing Certificates issued in respect of any

Facility, provided, that a condition to the issuance of any Refinancing Certificates issued in

case to the extent provided in the Indentures, may be issued at any time, provided that the
Additional Equipment Notes may be issued under an Indenture only if the Series B Equipment Notes
shall have been issued under such Indenture prior thereto or concurrently therewith. If the Series
B Equipment Notes are issued under any Indenture, such Series B Equipment Notes shall be issued to
the Class B Trust that issues the Class B Certificates to the Class B Certificateholders pursuant
to the Class B Trust Agreement. If any Additional Equipment Notes are issued under any Indenture,
such Additional Equipment Notes shall be issued to a new pass through trust (Additional
Trust) that issues a class of pass through certificates (the Additional
Certificates) to certificateholders (the Additional Certificateholders) pursuant to

exceed the amount set forth in Schedule A attached hereto for the date most recently preceding such

Class B Certificates has been reduced by all Expected Distributions on the Class B Certificates in
respect of all Distribution Dates prior to such date of determination), shall require the prior
written consent of the Class A Liquidity Provider and (z) shall not materially adversely affect any
Trustee then party hereto in its individual capacity. This Agreement shall be amended by written

Certificates or Additional Certificates subject to the following terms and conditions:

benefit of a Class B Liquidity Facility, Section 3.05 and any other provisions hereof shall be
revised to the extent necessary to reflect the terms and conditions of the Class B Liquidity
Facility, provided that such revisions shall not materially adversely affect the Class A Liquidity
Provider;
(vi) in the case of the Additional Certificates, Section 3.02 may be revised, with respect to
any Additional Certificates, to provide for the distribution of Adjusted Interest for such
Additional Certificates (calculated in a manner substantially similar to the calculation of Class B
Adjusted Interest) after the Class B Adjusted Interest but before Expected Distributions on the
Class A Certificates, provided, that such revision shall not adversely affect any Liquidity
Provider (as determined by such Liquidity Provider in its reasonable discretion);
(vii) the Additional Certificates may have the benefit of credit support similar to the Class
A Liquidity Facility or different therefrom, provided that (A) claims for fees,

Additional Certificateholders), on the other hand, and as among the Trustees (and any Refinancing

Certificateholders or Additional Certificateholders) this Agreement shall be a subordination
agreement for purposes of Section 510 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, as amended from time to
time.
(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement, if prior to the payment in full to the

received any payment or distribution in respect of Equipment Notes or any other amount under the
Indentures or other Operative Agreements which, had the subordination provisions of this Agreement

distributed to such Person, then such payment, distribution or other amount shall be received and
held in trust by such Person and paid over or delivered to the Subordination Agent for application
as provided herein.
(c) If any Trustee, any Liquidity Provider or the Subordination Agent receives any payment in
respect of any obligations owing or amounts distributable hereunder (or, in the case of the
Liquidity Providers, in respect of the Liquidity Obligations), which is subsequently invalidated,
declared preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or other

continue in full force and effect as if such payment had not been received.
(d) The Trustees (on behalf of themselves and the holders of Certificates), the Liquidity
Providers and the Subordination Agent expressly confirm and agree that the payment priorities and
subordination specified in Articles II and III shall apply in all circumstances, notwithstanding
(x) the fact that the obligations owed to the Trustees are secured by certain assets and the
Liquidity Obligations may not be so secured or (y) the occurrence of an American Bankruptcy Event
or any similar event or occurrence relating to any other Person (it being
Intercreditor Agreement (2011-2)
AA Aircraft EETC
56
expressly agreed that the payment priorities and subordination specified in Articles II and
III shall apply whether or not a claim for post-petition or post-filing interest is allowed in the
proceedings resulting from such American Bankruptcy Event or other event or occurrence). The
Trustees expressly agree (on behalf of themselves and the holders of Certificates) not to assert
priority over the holders of Liquidity Obligations (except as specifically set forth in Section
3.02) due to their status as secured creditors in any bankruptcy, insolvency or other legal
proceeding.
(e) Each of the Trustees (on behalf of themselves and the holders of Certificates), the
Liquidity Providers and the Subordination Agent may take any of the following actions without
impairing its rights under this Agreement:
(i) obtain a Lien on any property to secure any amounts owing to it hereunder,
including, in the case of the Liquidity Providers, the Liquidity Obligations;
(ii) obtain the primary or secondary obligation of any other obligor with respect to
any amounts owing to it hereunder, including, in the case of the Liquidity Providers, any of
the Liquidity Obligations;
(iii) renew, extend, increase, alter or exchange any amounts owing to it hereunder,
including, in the case of the Liquidity Providers, any of the Liquidity Obligations, or
release or compromise any obligation of any obligor with respect thereto;
(iv) refrain from exercising any right or remedy, or delay in exercising any right or
remedy, which it may have; or
(v) take any other action which might discharge a subordinated party or a surety under
applicable law;
provided, however, that the taking of any such actions by any of the Trustees, the Liquidity
Providers or the Subordination Agent shall not prejudice the rights or adversely affect the
obligations of any other party under this Agreement.
Section 9.10. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT HAS BEEN DELIVERED IN THE STATE OF NEW
YORK AND SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK,
INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE.
Section 9.11. Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial; Waiver of Immunity.

hereof and of all other Operative Agreements hereby (i) irrevocably submits itself to the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York sitting in the City of New York
and to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District
of New York, for the purposes of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this
Agreement, the subject matter hereof or any of the transactions contemplated hereby brought by any
party or parties hereto or thereto, or their successors or permitted assigns and (ii) waives, and
agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, or otherwise, in any such suit, action or
proceeding, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the
Intercreditor Agreement (2011-2)
AA Aircraft EETC
57
venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper or that this Agreement or the subject
matter hereof or any of the transactions contemplated hereby may not be enforced in or by such
courts.
(b) EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF
ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN
THEM RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING
ESTABLISHED, including, without limitation, contract claims, tort claims, breach of duty claims and
all other common law and statutory claims. Each of the parties warrants and represents that it has
reviewed this waiver with its legal counsel, and that it knowingly and voluntarily waives its jury
trial rights following consultation with such legal counsel. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
LAW, THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE AND CANNOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING, AND THIS WAIVER
SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT.
(c) To the extent that any Liquidity Provider or any of its properties has or may hereafter
acquire any right of immunity, whether characterized as sovereign immunity or otherwise, and
whether under the United States Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 (or any successor
legislation) or otherwise, from any legal proceedings, whether in the United States or elsewhere,
to enforce or collect upon this Agreement, including, without limitation, immunity from suit or
service of process, immunity from jurisdiction or judgment of any court or tribunal or execution of
a judgment, or immunity of any of its property from attachment prior to any entry of judgment, or
from attachment in aid of execution upon a judgment, each of the Class A Liquidity Provider and,
upon accession hereto, the Class B Liquidity Provider, hereby irrevocably and expressly waives any
such immunity, and agrees not to assert any such right or claim in any such proceeding, whether in
the United States or elsewhere.
Section 9.12. Non-Petition. Each Liquidity Provider covenants that until one year and
one day after the Equipment Notes have been paid in full, it shall not acquiesce, petition or
otherwise invoke or cause or join in invoking or causing any Trust or any other Person to invoke
the process of any governmental authority for the purpose of commencing or sustaining a case
(whether voluntary or not) against such Trust under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or
appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar
official of such Trust or any substantial part of its property or ordering the winding up or
liquidation of the affairs of such Trust.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the obligations contained herein, and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties
hereto hereby agree as follows:
SECTION 1. Acceptance of Depositary; Establishment of Accounts.
Section 1.1. Acceptance of Depositary. The Depositary hereby agrees to act as
depositary bank as provided herein and in connection therewith to accept all amounts to be
delivered to or held by the Depositary pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Depositary
further agrees to hold, maintain and safeguard the Deposits and the Accounts (as defined below)

Agent shall not have any right to withdraw, assign or otherwise transfer moneys held in the
Accounts except as permitted by this Agreement.
Section 1.2. Establishment of Accounts. The Escrow Agent hereby instructs the
Depositary, and the Depositary agrees, to establish the separate deposit accounts listed on
Schedule I hereto and to establish such additional separate deposit accounts as may be required in

Accounts at a branch of The Bank of New York Mellon located in the United States.
SECTION 2. Deposit Mechanics.

Deposit Agreement (Class A)
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
2
Section 2.2. Interest. Each Deposit shall bear interest from and including the date
of deposit to but excluding the date of withdrawal (it being understood that the date of withdrawal
in the case of any payment by the Depositary of the amount of the Final Withdrawal (as defined
below) on the Outside Termination Date (as defined below) shall be deemed to be the date of such
payment) at the rate of 8.625% per annum (computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day
months) payable to the Paying Agent on behalf of the Escrow Agent in arrears on each Interest
Payment Date (as defined below), on the date of any Final Withdrawal, on the date of any
Replacement Withdrawal (as defined below) or on the date of any Event of Loss Withdrawal (as
defined below), as applicable, all in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. As used in this
Agreement, the term Interest Payment Date, with respect to each Deposit that, as of any
date of determination, has not been withdrawn pursuant to a Final Withdrawal, a Replacement
Withdrawal or an Event of Loss Withdrawal, shall mean each of October 15 and April 15, commencing
on April 15, 2012 and ending on the earlier of October 15 and April 15 immediately following the
date on which such Deposit is withdrawn pursuant to a Notice of Purchase Withdrawal (as defined
below); provided that interest accrued on any Deposit that is withdrawn pursuant to a
Notice of Purchase Withdrawal shall be paid on the next Interest Payment Date following the related
Purchase Withdrawal, notwithstanding any intervening Final Withdrawal or Event of Loss Withdrawal
with respect to any other Deposit and notwithstanding the fact that the relevant Account may have
been closed before such Interest Payment Date, but, if any intervening Replacement Withdrawal
occurs before such next Interest Payment Date, such accrued interest shall, instead, be paid on the
date of such Replacement Withdrawal. All interest paid pursuant to this Agreement shall be
non-compounding.
Section 2.3. Withdrawals.
(a) Purchase Withdrawal. On and after the date seven days after the establishment of
any Deposit, the Escrow Agent may, by providing at least one Business Days prior notice of
withdrawal to the Depositary in the form of Exhibit A hereto (a Notice of Purchase
Withdrawal), withdraw the entire balance of such Deposit (but not any accrued and unpaid
interest thereon) (with respect to any Deposit, such withdrawal, the Purchase
Withdrawal), except that at any time prior to the actual withdrawal of such Deposit, the
Escrow Agent or the Pass Through Trustee may, by notice to the Depositary, which notice has been
actually received by the Depositary prior to such actual withdrawal, cancel such withdrawal
(including on the scheduled date therefor), and thereafter such Deposit shall continue to be
maintained by the Depositary in accordance with the original terms thereof. Following the Purchase
Withdrawal of any Deposit, the balance in the related Account shall be reduced to zero and the
Depositary shall close such Account. As used in this Agreement, Business Day shall mean
any day, other than a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which commercial banks are authorized or
required by law to close in New York, New York, Fort Worth, Texas, Boston, Massachusetts or
Wilmington, Delaware. The Depositary may waive the foregoing requirement that any Deposit can only
be withdrawn on or after seven days after the establishment thereof, and may instead reserve the
right, upon at least 14 days prior written notice to American, the Escrow Agent and the Pass
Through Trustee, to require seven days notice for any withdrawal.
Deposit Agreement (Class A)
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)

(b) Final Withdrawal; Replacement Withdrawal; Event of Loss Withdrawal.
(i) The Escrow Agent may, by providing at least 15 days prior notice of withdrawal to the
Depositary in the form of Exhibit B hereto (a Notice of Final Withdrawal), withdraw
(x) the entire amount of all of the remaining Deposits together with (y) all
accrued and unpaid interest on such Deposits to but excluding the specified date of such withdrawal
(such withdrawal of the amounts set forth in the immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y), the
Final Withdrawal), on such date as shall be specified in such Notice of Final Withdrawal.
If a Notice of Final Withdrawal has not been given to the Depositary on or before the Outside
Termination Date (as defined below) and there are unwithdrawn Deposits on such date, the Depositary
shall pay the amount of the Final Withdrawal to the Paying Agent on the Outside Termination Date.
Following the Final Withdrawal of any Deposit, the balance in the related Account shall be reduced
to zero and the Depositary shall close such Account. As used in this Agreement, the term
Outside Termination Date shall mean December 31, 2011.
(ii) The Escrow Agent may, by providing at least five Business Days prior notice of
withdrawal to the Depositary in the form of Exhibit C hereto (a Notice of Replacement
Withdrawal), withdraw (x) with respect to all Deposits then held by the Depositary,
(1) the entire amount of such Deposits together with (2) all accrued and unpaid
interest on such Deposits to but excluding the specified date of such Replacement Withdrawal (as
defined below) and (y) with respect to all Deposits, if any, previously withdrawn pursuant
to a Notice of Purchase Withdrawal, all accrued and unpaid interest on such Deposits to but
excluding the date of the applicable Purchase Withdrawal (such withdrawal of the amounts set forth
in the immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y), the Replacement Withdrawal), on such
date as shall be specified in such Notice of Replacement Withdrawal.
(iii) On and after the date seven days after the establishment of any Deposit, the Escrow
Agent may, by providing at least 15 days prior notice of withdrawal to the Depositary in the form
of Exhibit D hereto (a Notice of Event of Loss Withdrawal), withdraw (x) the
entire balance of such Deposit together with (y) all accrued and unpaid interest on such
Deposit to but excluding the specified date of such withdrawal (with respect to any Deposit, such
withdrawal of the amounts set forth in the immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y), the
Event of Loss Withdrawal), on such date as shall be specified in such Notice of Event of
Loss Withdrawal. Following such Event of Loss Withdrawal, the balance in the related Account shall
be reduced to zero and the Depositary shall close such Account. The Depositary may waive the
foregoing requirement that any Deposit can only be withdrawn on or after seven days after the
establishment thereof, and may instead reserve the right, upon at least 14 days prior written
notice to American, the Escrow Agent and the Pass Through Trustee, to require seven days notice
for any withdrawal.
(c) Compliance with Withdrawal Notices. If the Depositary receives a duly completed
Notice of Purchase Withdrawal, Notice of Final Withdrawal, Notice of Replacement Withdrawal or
Notice of Event of Loss Withdrawal (each, a Withdrawal Notice) complying with the
provisions of this Agreement, it shall make the payments specified therein in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
Deposit Agreement (Class A)
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
4
this Agreement, in no event shall the Depositary be required, pursuant to any Withdrawal
Notice or otherwise, to make payments hereunder on or in respect of any Deposit in excess of the
amount of such Deposit together with accrued interest thereon as provided in this Agreement.
Section 2.4. Other Accounts. On the date of withdrawal of any Deposit (other than the
date of any Final Withdrawal, Replacement Withdrawal or Event of Loss Withdrawal), the Escrow
Agent, or the Pass Through Trustee on behalf of the Escrow Agent, shall re-deposit with the
Depositary any portion thereof not used to acquire Equipment Notes and the Depositary shall accept
the same for deposit hereunder. Any sums so received for deposit shall be established as a new
Deposit and credited to a new Account, all as more fully provided in Section 2.1 hereof,
and thereafter the provisions of this Agreement shall apply thereto as fully and with the same
force and effect as if such Deposit had been established on the Deposit Date except that such
Deposit may not be withdrawn prior to the date seven days after the establishment thereof. The
Depositary may waive the foregoing requirement that any Deposit can only be withdrawn on or after
seven days after the establishment thereof, and may instead reserve the right, upon at least 14
days prior written notice to American, the Escrow Agent and the Pass Through Trustee, to require
seven days notice for any withdrawal.
SECTION 3. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate on the fifth Business Day
after the later of the date on which (i) all of the Deposits shall have been withdrawn and
paid as provided herein without any re-deposit and (ii) all accrued and unpaid interest on
the Deposits shall have been paid as provided herein, but in no event prior to the date on which
the Depositary shall have performed in full its obligations hereunder.
SECTION 4. Payments. All payments made by the Depositary hereunder shall be paid in
United States Dollars and immediately available funds by wire transfer (i) in the cases of
(w) accrued and unpaid interest on the Deposits payable under Section 2.2 hereof,
(x) any Final Withdrawal, (y) Event of Loss Withdrawal or (z) accrued and
unpaid interest on all Deposits, if any, previously withdrawn pursuant to a Notice of Purchase
Withdrawal, which interest is payable pursuant to a Notice of Replacement Withdrawal, directly to
the Paying Agent at U.S. Bank Trust National Association, Boston, Massachusetts, ABA# [_______],
Corporate Trust, Account No. [_______], Reference: American Airlines 2011-2A EETC, or to such other
account as the Paying Agent may direct from time to time in writing to the Depositary and the
Escrow Agent, (ii) in the case of any withdrawal of one or more Deposits pursuant to a
Notice of Purchase Withdrawal, directly to or as directed by the Pass Through Trustee as specified
and in the manner provided in such Notice of Purchase Withdrawal, and (iii) the case of any
withdrawal of one or more Deposits then held by the Depositary together with accrued and unpaid
interest on such Deposits pursuant to a Notice of Replacement Withdrawal, as directed by the Pass
Through Trustee as specified and in the manner provided in such Notice of Replacement Withdrawal.
The Depositary hereby waives any and all rights of set-off, combination of accounts, right of
retention or similar right (whether arising under applicable law, contract or otherwise) it may
have against the Deposits howsoever arising. To the extent permitted by applicable law, all
payments on or in respect of each Deposit shall be made free and clear of and without reduction for
or on account of any and all taxes, levies or other impositions or charges (collectively,
Taxes). However, if the Depositary shall be required by law (or if the Paying Agent
shall have

notified the Depositary that, pursuant to Section 2.04 of the Escrow and Paying Agent
Agreement, the Paying Agent is required by law) to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect
of any sum payable hereunder, the Depositary shall (i) make, or cause to be made, such
deductions or withholding and (ii) pay, or cause to be paid, the full amount deducted or
withheld to the competent taxation authority in accordance with applicable law. If the date on
which any payment due on any Deposit would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day,
such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no additional interest shall
accrue in respect of such extension.
SECTION 5. Representation and Warranties. The Depositary hereby represents and
warrants to American, the Escrow Agent, the Pass Through Trustee and the Paying Agent that:
(a) it is a New York banking corporation duly organized and validly existing in good
standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization;
(b) it has full power, authority and legal right to conduct its business and operations
as currently conducted and to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement;
(c) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement have been duly authorized
by all necessary corporate action on the part of it and do not require any stockholder
approval, or approval or consent of any trustee or holder of any indebtedness or obligations
of it, and this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by it and constitutes its
legal, valid and binding obligations enforceable against it in accordance with the terms
hereof;
(d) no authorization, consent or approval of or other action by, and no notice to or
filing with, any United States federal or state governmental authority or regulatory body is
required for the execution, delivery or performance by it of this Agreement;

charter documents, as amended, or bylaws, as amended, of it or any similar instrument
binding on it or any order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental
authority against it or by which it or any of its properties is bound or of any indenture,

results or will result in the imposition of any lien upon any of its properties; and
(f) there are no pending or, to its knowledge, threatened actions, suits,
investigations or proceedings (whether or not purportedly on behalf of it) against or
affecting it or any of its property before or by any court or administrative agency (except,

which, if adversely determined, (i) would adversely affect the ability of it to
perform its obligations under this Agreement or (ii) would call into question or
challenge the validity of this Agreement or the enforceability hereof in accordance with the
terms hereof, nor is the Depositary in default with respect to any order of any court,
governmental authority, arbitration board or administrative agency so as to adversely affect
its ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement.
SECTION 6. Transfer. Neither party hereto shall be entitled to assign or otherwise
transfer this Agreement (or any interest herein) other than (i) in the case of the Escrow
Agent, to a successor escrow agent under, and in accordance with, the Escrow and Paying Agent
Agreement, and (ii) in the case of the Depositary, to a bank (as defined in the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended from time to time, for purposes of

Depositary shall merge or with which the Depositary shall be consolidated. Any purported
assignment in violation of the immediately preceding sentence shall be void. This Agreement shall
be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and (in the case of the Escrow
Agent) permitted assigns. The Depositary agrees to cause any bank into which the Depositary shall
merge or with which the Depositary shall be consolidated to deliver to the Escrow Agent an
agreement containing the express assumption by such successor bank as of the effective date of such
merger or consolidation, as applicable, of the due and punctual performance and observance of each
covenant and condition of this Agreement unless such assumption shall be effective as a matter of
law even in the absence of such agreement.

modified except by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom the amendment, waiver
or other modification is sought to be enforced and by the Pass Through Trustee.

communication under this Agreement shall be in English and in writing, and given by United States

certificate until the Depositary receives written notice from the Escrow Agent to the contrary.
SECTION 9. Obligations Unconditional. The Depositary hereby acknowledges and agrees
that its obligation to repay each Deposit together with interest thereon as provided herein is
absolute, irrevocable and unconditional and constitutes a full recourse obligation of the
Depositary enforceable against it to the full extent of all of its assets and properties.
SECTION 10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including all attachments hereto) sets
forth all of the promises, covenants, agreements, conditions and understandings between the
Depositary and the Escrow Agent with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior
and contemporaneous agreements and undertakings, inducements or conditions, express or implied,
oral or written.
SECTION 11. Governing Law. This Agreement, and the rights and obligations of the
Depositary and the Escrow Agent with respect to the Deposits, shall be governed by, and construed

non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York sitting in the City of New York

proceeding, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue
of the suit, action or proceeding is improper or that this Agreement or the subject matter hereof
or any of the transactions contemplated hereby may not be enforced in or by such courts.
SECTION 13. Waiver of Jury Trial Right. EACH OF THE DEPOSITARY AND THE ESCROW AGENT
ACKNOWLEDGES AND ACCEPTS THAT, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR
PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT SUCH PARTY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO
A TRIAL BY JURY.

SECTION 15. Rights of Receiptholders. The Depositary acknowledges that, if the
Depositary shall fail to pay when due hereunder any interest on the Deposits or to pay when due
hereunder any Final Withdrawal, any Replacement Withdrawal or any Event of Loss Withdrawal, each
Receiptholder (as defined below) shall have the right (individually and without the need for any
other action of any person, including the Escrow Agent or any other Receiptholder) to claim
directly against the Depositary, by making a demand to the Depositary or by bringing suit to
enforce any rights the Escrow Agent may have under this Agreement, in respect of amounts that would
have been distributed to such Receiptholder pursuant to the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, and
that any such claim shall not be subject to defenses that the Depositary may have against the
Escrow Agent. As used in this Agreement, the term Receiptholder shall have the meaning
assigned to such term in the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement.
SECTION 16. Limitation on Damages. In no event shall the Depositary be responsible or
liable for special, indirect, punitive, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever
(including, but not limited to, loss of profit, whether or not foreseeable) suffered by the Escrow
Agent or any of the Receiptholders in connection with this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated or any relationships established by this Agreement irrespective of whether the

to the Deposit Agreement requesting a withdrawal of all of the remaining Deposits, together with
accrued and unpaid interest on such Deposits to the date of withdrawal, on the 15th day
after the date that such notice of withdrawal is given to the Depositary (or, if not a Business
Day, on the next succeeding Business Day) (the Final Withdrawal); provided that,
if the day scheduled for the Final Withdrawal in accordance with the foregoing is within 10 days
before or after a Regular Distribution Date, then the Escrow Agent shall request that such
requested Final Withdrawal be made on such Regular Distribution Date (the date of such requested
withdrawal, the Final Withdrawal Date). If for any reason the Escrow Agent shall have

Date and there are unwithdrawn Deposits on such date, the Final Withdrawal Date shall be deemed to
be the Outside Termination Date. The term Outside Termination Date shall mean December
31, 2011.
Section 1.03. Initial Escrow Amount; Issuance of Escrow Receipts. The Escrow
Agent hereby directs the Underwriters to, and the Underwriters hereby acknowledge that on the date
hereof they shall, irrevocably deliver to the Depositary on behalf of the Escrow Agent, an amount
in U.S. dollars (Dollars) and immediately available funds equal to $725,694,000 for
deposit on behalf of the Escrow Agent with the Depositary in accordance with Section 2.1 of
the Deposit Agreement. The Underwriters hereby instruct the Escrow Agent, upon receipt by the
Depositary of such sum from the Underwriters, to confirm such receipt by executing and delivering
to the Pass Through Trustee an Escrow Receipt in the form of Exhibit A hereto (each, an Escrow
Receipt and, collectively, the Escrow Receipts) (a) to be affixed by the
Pass Through Trustee to each Certificate and (b) to evidence the same percentage interest
(the Escrow Interest) in the Account Amounts (as defined below) as the Fractional
Undivided Interest in the Pass Through Trust evidenced by the Certificate to which such Escrow
Receipt is to be affixed. The Escrow Agent shall provide to the Pass Through Trustee for
attachment to each Certificate newly issued under and in accordance with the Pass Through Trust
Agreement an executed Escrow Receipt as the Pass Through Trustee may from time to time request of
the Escrow Agent. Each Escrow Receipt shall be registered by the Escrow Agent in a register (the
Register) maintained by the Escrow Agent in the name of the same holder that is the
holder of the Certificate to which such Escrow Receipt is attached and may not thereafter be
detached from such Certificate to which it is to be affixed. No Escrow Receipt may be assigned or
transferred except in connection with the assignment or transfer of the Certificate to which such
Escrow Receipt is affixed. After the termination of the Deposit Agreement (or, if applicable, any
Replacement Deposit Agreement), no
Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement (Class A)
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
5
additional Escrow Receipts shall be issued and the Pass Through Trustee shall
request the return to the Escrow Agent for cancellation of all outstanding Escrow Receipts.
Section 1.04. Payments to Receiptholders. All payments and distributions made to
a holder (each, a Receiptholder and, collectively, the Receiptholders) of an
Escrow Receipt in respect of such Escrow Receipt shall be made only from amounts deposited in the
Paying Agent Account (as defined below) (the Account Amounts). Each Receiptholder, by
its acceptance of an Escrow Receipt, agrees that (a) it will look solely to the Account
Amounts for any payment or distribution due to such Receiptholder pursuant to the terms of such
Escrow Receipt and this Agreement (subject to Section 16 hereof) and (b) it will
have no recourse to American, the Pass Through Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Escrow Agent,
except as expressly provided herein or in the Pass Through Trust Agreement. No Receiptholder shall
have any right to vote or in any manner otherwise control the operation and management of the
Paying Agent Account (as defined below) or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor shall
anything set forth herein, or contained in the terms of any Escrow Receipt, be construed so as to
constitute the Receiptholders from time to time as partners or members of an association.
Section 1.05. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Escrow Receipt. If (a)
any mutilated Escrow Receipt is surrendered to the Escrow Agent or the Escrow Agent receives
evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Escrow Receipt and
(b) there is delivered to the Escrow Agent and the Pass Through Trustee such security,
indemnity or bond, as may be required by them to hold each of them harmless, then, absent notice to
the Escrow Agent or the Pass Through Trustee that such destroyed, lost or stolen Escrow Receipt has
been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, and provided that the requirements of Section 8-405 of the
Uniform Commercial Code in effect in any applicable jurisdiction are met, the Escrow Agent shall
execute and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
Escrow Receipt, a new Escrow Receipt or Escrow Receipts of like Escrow Interest in the Account
Amounts and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.
In connection with the issuance of any new Escrow Receipt under this Section 1.05, the
Escrow Agent may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and
expenses of the Pass Through Trustee and the Escrow Agent) connected therewith.
Any duplicate Escrow Receipt issued pursuant to this Section 1.05 shall constitute
conclusive evidence of the appropriate Escrow Interest in the Account Amounts, as if originally
issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Escrow Receipt shall be found at any time.
Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement (Class A)
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)

The provisions of this Section 1.05 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent
lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Escrow Receipts.
Section 1.06. Additional Escrow Amounts. On the date of any Purchase Withdrawal,
the Pass Through Trustee may re-deposit with the Depositary some or all of the amounts so withdrawn
in accordance with Section 2.4 of the Deposit Agreement.
Section 1.07. Resignation or Removal of Escrow Agent. Subject to the appointment
and acceptance of a successor Escrow Agent as provided below, the Escrow Agent may resign at any
time by giving 30 days prior written notice thereof to the Investors, but may not otherwise be
removed except for cause by the written consent of the Investors with respect to Investors
representing Escrow Interests aggregating not less than a majority in interest in the Account
Amounts (an Action of Investors). Upon any such resignation or removal, the Investors,
by an Action of Investors, shall have the right to appoint a successor Escrow Agent. If no
successor Escrow Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within

vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Escrow Agent, and the
retiring Escrow Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. No
resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent shall be effective unless a written confirmation shall
have been obtained from each of Standard & Poors Ratings Services, a Standard & Poors Financial
Services LLC business, and Moodys Investors Service, Inc. that the replacement of the Escrow Agent
with the successor Escrow Agent will not result in (a) a reduction of the rating for the

suspension of the rating of the Certificates.

Receipt for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to this Agreement and for all other
purposes whatsoever, and neither the Escrow Agent nor the Paying Agent shall be affected by any
notice to the contrary.
Section 1.09. Further Assurances. Without limiting Sections 4 and

required to be withheld with respect to any amounts payable in respect of the Deposits (as defined
in the Deposit Agreement) or the escrow amounts, to withhold such amounts and timely pay the same
to the appropriate authority in the name of and on behalf of the Receiptholders, that it will file
any necessary withholding tax returns or statements when due, and that, as promptly as possible
after the payment thereof, it will deliver to each such Receiptholder appropriate documentation

Agent shall have the right to appoint a successor Paying Agent. If no successor Paying Agent shall
have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring

be reasonably requested by the Pass Through Trustee in order to effectuate the purposes of this
Agreement or the Note Purchase Agreement and the performance by the Escrow Agent of its obligations
hereunder or thereunder.

the Deposit Agreement that all amounts payable to the Escrow Agent under the Deposit Agreement be
paid by the Depositary directly to the Paying Agent, the Pass Through Trustee or a Replacement
Depositary (depending on the circumstances), the Escrow Agent receives any payment thereunder, then

Deposits (as defined in the Deposit Agreement), (ii) any Final Withdrawal, (iii)
any Event of Loss Withdrawal or (iv) any amount referred to in clause (y) of Section

notes issued with respect to the other aircraft and held by the Pass Through Trustees); and
(xiii) any Claim to the extent such Claim is attributable to the offer or sale by an

in violation of the Securities Act or other
Participation Agreement
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
[Reg. No.]
15
applicable federal, state or foreign securities laws (other than any thereof caused by
acts or omissions of the Company of any of its affiliates).
(e) Insured Claims. In the case of any Claim indemnified by the Company hereunder
that is covered by a policy of insurance maintained by the Company, each Indemnitee agrees to
cooperate, at the Companys expense, with the insurers in the exercise of their rights to
investigate, defend or compromise such Claim.
(f) Claims Procedure. An Indemnitee shall promptly notify the Company of any Claim as
to which indemnification is sought; provided that the failure to provide such prompt notice
shall not release the Company from any of its obligations to indemnify hereunder, except to the
extent that the Company is prejudiced by such failure or the Companys indemnification obligations
are increased as a result of such failure. Such Indemnitee shall promptly submit to the Company
all additional information in such Indemnitees possession to substantiate such request for payment
to the Company as the Company shall reasonably request. Subject to the rights of insurers under
policies of insurance maintained by the Company, the Company shall have the right, at its sole cost
and expense, to investigate, and the right in its sole discretion to defend or compromise, any
Claim for which indemnification is sought under this Section 4.02, and, at the Companys expense,
the Indemnitee shall cooperate with all reasonable requests of the Company in connection therewith.
Such Indemnitee shall not enter into a settlement or other compromise with respect to any Claim
without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld
or delayed, unless such Indemnitee waives its right to be indemnified with respect to such Claim
under this Section 4.02. Where the Company or the insurers under a policy of insurance maintained
by the Company undertake the defense of an Indemnitee with respect to a Claim, no additional legal
fees or expenses of such Indemnitee in connection with the defense of such Claim shall be
indemnified hereunder unless such fees or expenses were incurred at the written request of the
Company or such insurers. Subject to the requirements of any policy of insurance, an Indemnitee
may participate at its own expense in any judicial proceeding controlled by the Company pursuant to
the preceding provisions; provided that such partys participation does not, in the opinion
of the counsel appointed by the Company or its insurers to conduct such proceedings, interfere with
such control; and such participation shall not constitute a waiver of the indemnification provided
in this Section 4.02. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall
not under any circumstances be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all
Indemnitees.
(g) Subrogation. To the extent that a Claim indemnified by the Company under this
Section 4.02 is in fact paid in full by the Company or an insurer under a policy of insurance
maintained by the Company, the Company or such insurer, as the case may be, shall, without any
further action, be subrogated to the rights and remedies of the Indemnitee on whose behalf such
Claim was paid with respect to the transaction or event
Participation Agreement
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
[Reg. No.]
16
giving rise to such Claim. Such Indemnitee shall give such further assurances or agreements
and shall cooperate with the Company or such insurer, as the case may be, to permit the Company or
such insurer to pursue such rights and remedies, if any, to the extent reasonably requested by the
Company. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if an Indemnitee
receives any payment from any party other than the Company or its insurers, in whole or in part,
with respect to any Claim paid by the Company or its insurers hereunder, it shall promptly pay over
to the Company the amount received (but not an amount in excess of the amount the Company or any of
its insurers has paid in respect of such Claim). Any amount referred to in the preceding sentence
that is payable to the Company shall not be paid to the Company, or, if it has been previously paid
directly to the Company, shall not be retained by the Company, if at the time of such payment an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, but shall be paid to and held by the Loan

such Schedule I may be amended in connection with such issuance). On the Closing Date, each Series

issued) shall be issued to the Subordination Agent on behalf of each of the Pass Through Trustees
of the Pass Through Trusts then in existence created under the Pass Through Trust Agreements
referred to in Schedule II. If no Series B Equipment Notes are issued on the Closing Date, then,
subject to compliance with the conditions set forth in Section 4(a)(v) of the Note Purchase
Agreement, Section 2.02 of the Participation Agreement and Section 8.01(d) of the Intercreditor
Agreement, the Company shall have the option to issue Series B Equipment Notes after the Closing

Date) shall have been redeemed pursuant to Section 2.11(b), the Company shall, subject to
compliance with the conditions set forth in Section 4(a)(v) of the Note Purchase Agreement, Section
2.02 of the Participation Agreement and Section 8.01(c) of the Intercreditor Agreement, have the
option to issue new Series B Equipment Notes with the same Series B designation as, but with terms
that may be the same as or different from those of, the redeemed Series B Equipment Notes. Any
Series B Equipment Notes issued after the Closing Date pursuant to any of the two immediately
preceding sentences shall have such maturities, principal amounts and interest rate as specified in
Schedule I hereto in respect of Series B Equipment Notes, as such Schedule I may be amended in
connection with any such issuance. One separate series of Additional Series Equipment Notes may be
issued concurrently with, or after, the initial issuance of any Series B Equipment Notes hereunder
and such series of Additional Series Equipment Notes shall be dated the date of original issuance
thereof and shall have such maturities, principal amounts and interest rate as specified in an
amendment to this Indenture. Without limitation of the foregoing, if any Additional Series
Equipment Notes shall have been issued hereunder, new Additional Series Equipment Notes may be
issued pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.11(b). The Equipment Notes shall be issued in
registered form only. The Equipment Notes shall be issued in denominations of $1,000 and integral
multiples thereof, except that one Equipment Note of each Series may be in an amount that is not an

Each Equipment Note shall bear interest at the Debt Rate specified for such Series calculated
on the basis of a year of 360 days comprised of twelve 30-day months, payable in arrears on each
Payment Date on the unpaid principal amount thereof from time to time outstanding from the most

issuance of such Equipment Note) until such
principal amount is paid in full, as further provided in the form of Equipment Note set forth in
Section 2.01. The principal amount of each Series A Equipment Note and, if issued, each Series B
Equipment Note and
Additional Series Equipment Note shall be payable in installments or in a single payment on
the Payment Dates set forth in Schedule I to such Equipment Note, each such installment, if any, to
be in an amount computed by multiplying the original principal amount of such Equipment Note by the
corresponding percentage set forth in Schedule I hereto (as, in the case of any Series B Equipment
Notes or any Additional Series Equipment Notes issued after the Closing Date, such Schedule I may
be amended in connection with such issuance) applicable to such Series, the applicable portion of
which shall be attached as Schedule I to such Equipment Note, opposite the Payment Date on which
such installment is due. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the final payment made under each
Equipment Note shall be in an amount sufficient to discharge in full the unpaid principal amount
and all accrued and unpaid interest on, and any other amounts due under, such Equipment Note. Each
Equipment Note shall bear interest, payable on demand, at the Past Due Rate (and not at the Debt
Rate) (calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days comprised of twelve 30-day months) on any
principal amount and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) Make-Whole Amount, if any,
interest and any other amounts payable thereunder not paid when due for any period during which the
same shall be overdue, in each case for the period the same is overdue. Amounts shall be overdue
under an Equipment Note if not paid in the manner provided therein or in this Indenture when due
(whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise). Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, if any date on which a payment hereunder or under any Equipment Note
becomes due and payable is not a Business Day, then such payment shall not be made on such
scheduled date but shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect
as if made on such scheduled date, and if such payment is made on such next succeeding Business
Day, no interest shall accrue on the amount of such payment from and after such scheduled date.
The Equipment Notes shall be executed on behalf of the Company by the manual or facsimile
signature of one of its authorized officers. Equipment Notes bearing the signatures of individuals
who were at the time of execution the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company,
notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the
authentication and delivery of such Equipment Notes or did not hold such offices at the respective
dates of such Equipment Notes. No Equipment Note shall be secured by or entitled to any benefit
under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purposes unless there appears on such
Equipment Note a certificate of authentication in the form provided herein executed by the Loan
Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized officers, and such

certificate upon any
Equipment Notes shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Equipment Note has
been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

Company in Dollars by wire transfer of immediately available funds not later than 10:00 a.m. (New
York City time) on the due date of payment to the Loan Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office for
distribution among the Noteholders in the manner provided herein, and payment of such amount by the
Company to the Loan Trustee shall be deemed to satisfy the Companys obligation to make such
payment. The Company shall not have any responsibility for the distribution of such payment to any
Noteholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision in any Equipment Note to the contrary,
the Loan Trustee will use reasonable efforts to pay or cause to be paid, if so directed in writing
by any Noteholder (with a copy to the Company), all amounts paid by the Company hereunder and under
such Noteholders Equipment Note or Equipment Notes to such Noteholder or a nominee therefor
(including all amounts distributed pursuant to Article III) by transferring, or causing to be
transferred, by wire transfer of immediately available funds in Dollars, prior to 12:00 noon (New
York City time) on the due date of payment, to an account maintained by such Noteholder with a bank
located in the continental United States the amount to be distributed to such Noteholder, for
credit to the account of such Noteholder maintained at such bank; provided that, in the
event the Equipment Notes are not held by the Subordination Agent on behalf of the Pass Through
Trustees, the Loan Trustee shall, unless instructed by the Company to use another method, pay such
amounts by check mailed to the Noteholders address as it appears on the Equipment Note Register.
If, after its receipt of funds at the place and prior to the time specified above in the
immediately preceding sentence, the Loan Trustee shall fail (other than as a result of a failure of
the Noteholder to provide it with wire transfer instructions) to make any such payment required to
be paid by wire transfer as provided in the immediately preceding sentence on the Business Day it
receives such funds, the Loan Trustee, in its individual capacity and not as trustee, agrees to
compensate such Noteholders for loss of use of funds at the Federal Funds Rate until such payment
is made and the Loan Trustee shall be entitled to any interest earned on such funds until such
payment is made. Any payment made hereunder shall be made without any presentment or surrender of
any Equipment Note, except that, in the case of the final payment in respect of any Equipment Note,
such Equipment Note shall be surrendered to the Loan Trustee for cancellation. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Indenture to the contrary, the Loan Trustee shall not be required to make,
or cause to be made, wire transfers as aforesaid prior to the first Business Day on which it is
practicable for the Loan Trustee to do so in view of the time of day when the funds to be so
transferred were
Indenture and Security Agreement
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
[Reg. No.]
15
received by it if such funds were received after 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) at
the place of payment, in which case the Loan Trustee shall make such required payment on the next
succeeding Business Day. So long as any signatory to the Participation Agreement or nominee
thereof shall be a registered Noteholder, all payments to it shall be made to the account of such
Noteholder specified in Schedule I to the Participation Agreement, or otherwise in the manner
provided in or pursuant to the Participation
Agreement, unless it shall have specified some other account or manner of payment by notice to
the Loan Trustee consistent with this Section 2.03.
Section 2.04. Withholding Taxes. The Loan Trustee shall exclude and withhold at the
appropriate rate from each payment of principal amount of, interest on, Make-Whole Amount, if any,
and other amounts due hereunder or under each Equipment Note (which exclusion and withholding shall
constitute payment of such amounts payable hereunder or in respect of such Equipment Notes, as
applicable) any and all withholding taxes applicable thereto as required by law. The Loan Trustee
agrees to act as such withholding agent and, in connection therewith, whenever any present or
future taxes or similar charges are required to be withheld with respect to any amounts payable
hereunder or in respect of the Equipment Notes, to withhold such amounts (which withholding shall
constitute payment of such amounts payable hereunder or in respect of such Equipment Notes, as
applicable) and timely pay the same to the appropriate authority in the name of and on behalf of
the Noteholders, that it will file any necessary withholding tax returns or statements when due,
and that as promptly as possible after the payment thereof it will deliver to each Noteholder (with
a copy to the Company) appropriate documentation showing the payment thereof, together with such
additional documentary evidence as any such Noteholder may reasonably request from time to time.
The Loan Trustee agrees to file any other information reports as it may be required to file under
United States law.

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

third, to the payment of the principal amount of such Equipment Note (or portion
thereof) then due thereunder, if any; and
fourth, the balance, if any, remaining thereafter to the payment of installments of
the principal amount of such Equipment Note (or portion thereof) remaining unpaid in the
inverse order of their maturity.
Section 2.06. Termination of Interest in Collateral. No Noteholder or Indenture
Indemnitee shall, as such, have any further interest in, or other right with respect to, the
Collateral when and if the principal amount of, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest (including,
to the extent permitted by law, post-petition interest and interest on any overdue amounts) on and
all other amounts due under all Equipment Notes held by such Noteholder and all other sums then due
and payable to such Noteholder or Indenture Indemnitee, as the case may be, hereunder (including,
without limitation, under Section 2.14) and under the Participation Agreement by the Company (the
Secured Obligations) have been paid in full.
Subject to Section 10.01 hereof, no Related Indenture Indemnitee shall, as such, have any
further interest in, or other right with respect to, the Collateral when and if all Related Secured
Obligations have been paid in full.
Section 2.07. Registration, Transfer and Exchange of Equipment Notes. The Loan
Trustee shall keep a register or registers (the Equipment Note Register) in which the
Loan Trustee shall provide for the registration of Equipment Notes and the registration of
transfers of Equipment Notes. No such transfer shall be given effect unless and until registration
hereunder shall have occurred. The Equipment Note Register shall be kept at the Corporate Trust
Office of the Loan Trustee. The Loan Trustee is hereby appointed Equipment Note Registrar for
the purpose of registering Equipment Notes and transfers of Equipment Notes as herein provided. A
holder of any Equipment Note intending to exchange or transfer such Equipment Note shall surrender
such Equipment Note to the Loan Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office, together with a written
request from the registered holder thereof for the issuance of a new Equipment Note of the same
Series, specifying, in the case of a surrender for transfer, the name and address of the new holder
or holders. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Equipment Note and subject to
satisfaction of Section 2.09, the Company shall execute, and the Loan Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Equipment
Notes of an equal aggregate principal amount and of the same Series. At the option of the
Noteholder, Equipment Notes may be exchanged for other Equipment Notes of the same Series of any
authorized denominations of an equal aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Equipment
Notes to be exchanged to the Loan Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office. Whenever any
Indenture and Security Agreement
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
[Reg. No.]
17
Equipment
Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Loan Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, the Equipment Notes which the Noteholder making the exchange is entitled
to receive. All Equipment Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Equipment
Notes (whether under this Section 2.07 or under Section 2.08 or otherwise under this Indenture)
shall be the valid obligations of the Company evidencing the same respective obligations, and
entitled to the same security and benefits under this Indenture, as the Equipment Notes surrendered
upon such registration of transfer or exchange. Every Equipment Note presented or surrendered for
registration of transfer shall (if so required by the Company or the Loan Trustee) be duly
endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Loan
Trustee, duly executed by the Noteholder or such Noteholders attorney duly authorized in writing,
and the Company and the Loan Trustee shall require evidence satisfactory to it as to the compliance
of any such transfer with the Securities Act and the securities laws of any applicable state or
jurisdiction. The Loan Trustee shall make a notation on each new Equipment Note of the amount of
all payments of principal amount previously made on the old Equipment Note or Equipment Notes with
respect to which such new Equipment Note is issued and the date to which interest on such old
Equipment Note or Equipment Notes has been paid. Principal, interest and all other amounts shall
be deemed to have been paid on such new Equipment Note to the date on which such amounts shall have
been paid on such old Equipment Note. The Company shall not be required to exchange any
surrendered Equipment Notes as provided above (a) during the ten-day period preceding the
due date of any payment on such Equipment Note or (b) that has been called for redemption.
The Company and the Loan Trustee shall in all cases deem and treat the Person in whose name any
Equipment Note shall have been issued and registered on the Equipment Note Register as the absolute
owner and the Noteholder of such Equipment Note for the purpose of receiving payment of all amounts
payable with respect to such Equipment Note and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor
the Loan Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. The Loan Trustee will promptly
notify the Company of each registration of a transfer of an Equipment Note. Any such transferee of
an Equipment Note, by its acceptance of an Equipment Note, agrees to the provisions of the
Indenture, the Related Indentures, the Participation Agreement, the other Operative Documents and
the Pass Through Documents applicable to the Noteholders or, in the case of each Related Indenture,
Related Noteholders, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any such transferee of
an Equipment Note, by its acceptance of an Equipment Note: (i) agrees to the applicable
provisions of Section 6.01, Section 7.10 and Section 7.11 of the Participation Agreement, and shall
be deemed to have represented, warranted and covenanted to the parties to the Participation
Agreement as to the matters represented, warranted and covenanted by the Noteholders, including the
Pass Through Trustees, in the Participation Agreement and (ii) agrees to the restrictions
set forth in Section 4.01(a)(ii) and Section 4.01(a)(iii) of the Intercreditor
Indenture and Security Agreement

Agreement, and shall
be deemed to have covenanted to the parties to the Intercreditor Agreement not to give any
direction to, or otherwise authorize, the Loan Trustee to take any action that would violate
Section 4.01(a)(ii) or Section 4.01(a)(iii) of the Intercreditor Agreement. Subject to compliance
by the Noteholder and its transferee (if any) of the requirements set forth in this Section 2.07
and in Section 2.09, the Loan Trustee and the Company shall use all reasonable efforts to issue new
Equipment Notes upon transfer or exchange within ten Business Days of the date an Equipment Note is
surrendered for transfer or exchange.
Section 2.08. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Equipment Notes. If any Equipment
Note becomes mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company shall, upon the written request of
the holder of such Equipment Note and subject to satisfaction of this Section 2.08 and of Section
2.09, execute and the Loan Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in replacement thereof a new
Equipment Note of the same Series, payable in the same principal amount, dated the same date and
captioned as issued in connection with the Aircraft. If the Equipment Note being replaced has
become mutilated, such Equipment Note shall be surrendered to the Loan Trustee, and a photocopy
thereof shall be furnished to the Company. If the Equipment Note being replaced has been
destroyed, lost or stolen, the holder of such Equipment Note shall furnish to the Company and the
Loan Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save the Company and the Loan
Trustee harmless and evidence satisfactory to the Company and the Loan Trustee of the destruction,
loss or theft of such Equipment Note and of the ownership thereof.
Section 2.09. Payment of Expenses on Transfer; Cancellation. (a) No service charge
shall be made to a Noteholder for any registration of transfer or exchange of Equipment Notes, but
the Loan Trustee, as Equipment Note Registrar, may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
Tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of
transfer or exchange of Equipment Notes.
(b) The Loan Trustee shall cancel all Equipment Notes surrendered for replacement, redemption,
transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation, shall keep a copy of such cancelled Equipment Notes,
and shall send the original canceled Equipment Notes marked cancelled to the Company.

Through Trustee, the redemption price shall not include, and no Noteholder shall have any right to
otherwise claim, any Make-Whole Amount with respect to the Series of Equipment Notes issued to the
Subordination Agent for the benefit of such Pass Through Trustee.
Section 2.12. Redemptions; Notice of Redemptions; Repurchases. (a) No redemption of

applicable law, including without limitation, the NY UCC and the Bankruptcy Code, and that
nothing herein derogates from the rights of the Company or the Loan Trustee under or
pursuant to such other applicable law, including without limitation, the NY UCC or the
Bankruptcy Code.
Upon every such taking of possession of Collateral under this Section 4.02, the Loan Trustee
may, from time to time, at the expense of the Collateral, make all such expenditures for
maintenance, insurance, repairs, alterations, additions and improvements to and of the Collateral
as it deems necessary to cause the Collateral to be in such condition as required by the provisions
of this Indenture. In each such case, the Loan Trustee may maintain, use, operate, store, insure,
lease, control, manage or dispose of the Collateral and may exercise all rights and powers of the
Company relating to the Collateral as the Loan Trustee reasonably deems best, including the right
to enter into any and all such agreements with respect to the maintenance, use, operation, storage,
insurance, leasing, control, management or disposition of the Collateral or any part thereof as the
Loan Trustee may reasonably determine; and the Loan Trustee shall be entitled to collect and
receive directly all tolls, rents, revenues, issues, income, products and profits of the Collateral
and every part thereof, without prejudice, however, to the
rights of the Loan Trustee under any provision of this Indenture to collect and receive all
cash held by, or required to be deposited with, the Loan Trustee hereunder. Such tolls, rents,
revenues, issues, income, products and profits shall be applied to pay the expenses of the use,
operation, storage, insurance, leasing, control, management or disposition of the Collateral, and
of all maintenance, repairs, replacements, alterations, additions and improvements, and to make all
payments that the Loan Trustee is required or elects to
Indenture and Security Agreement
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
[Reg. No.]

make, if any, for Taxes, insurance or other
proper charges assessed against or otherwise imposed upon the Collateral or any part thereof, and
all other payments which the Loan Trustee is required or expressly authorized to make under any
provision of this Indenture, as well as just and reasonable compensation for the services of the
Loan Trustee, and shall otherwise be applied in accordance with Article III.
If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Equipment Notes shall
either have been accelerated pursuant to this Section 4.02 or have become due at maturity and the
Loan Trustee shall be entitled to exercise rights hereunder, at the request of the Loan Trustee,
the Company shall promptly execute and deliver to the Loan Trustee such instruments of title and
other documents as the Loan Trustee reasonably deems necessary or advisable to enable the Loan
Trustee or an agent or representative designated by the Loan Trustee, at such time or times and
place or places as the Loan Trustee may specify, to obtain possession of all or any part of the
Collateral to which the Loan Trustee shall at the time be entitled hereunder. If the Company shall
for any reason fail to execute and deliver such instruments and documents after such request by the
Loan Trustee, the Loan Trustee may seek a judgment conferring on the Loan Trustee the right to
immediate possession and requiring the Company to execute and deliver such instruments and
documents to the Loan Trustee, to the entry of which judgment the Company hereby specifically
consents to the fullest extent it may lawfully do so. All actual and reasonable expenses of
obtaining such judgment or of pursuing, searching for and taking such property shall, until paid,
be secured by the Lien of this Indenture.
(b) The Loan Trustee shall give the Company at least 30 days prior written notice of any
public sale or of the date on or after which any private sale will be held, which notice the
Company hereby agrees to the extent permitted by applicable law is reasonable notice. Any
Noteholder or Noteholders shall be entitled to bid for and become the purchaser of any Collateral
offered for sale pursuant to this Section 4.02 and to credit against the purchase price bid at such
sale by such Noteholders all or any part of the unpaid amounts owing to such Noteholders under the
Operative Documents and secured by the Lien of this Indenture (but only to the extent that such
purchase price would have been paid to such Noteholders pursuant to Article III if such purchase
price were paid in cash and the foregoing provision of this Section 4.02(b) were not given effect).
The Loan Trustee may exercise such right without possession or production of the Equipment Notes
or proof of ownership thereof, and as a representative of the Noteholders may exercise such right
without notice to the Noteholders as party to any suit or proceeding relating to the foreclosure of
any Collateral. The Company shall also
be entitled to bid for and become the purchaser of any Collateral offered for sale pursuant to
this Section 4.02.

(c) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company irrevocably appoints, while an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Loan Trustee the true and lawful
attorney-in-fact of the Company (which appointment is coupled with an interest) in its name and
stead and on its behalf, for the purpose of effectuating any sale, assignment, transfer or delivery
for the enforcement of the Lien of this Indenture, whether pursuant to foreclosure or power of
sale, or otherwise, to execute and deliver all such bills of sale, assignments and other
instruments as may be necessary or appropriate, with full power of substitution, the Company hereby
ratifying and confirming all that such attorney or any substitute shall do by virtue hereof in
accordance with applicable law; provided that if so requested by the Loan Trustee or any
purchaser, the Company shall ratify and confirm any such sale, assignment, transfer or delivery, by
executing and delivering to the Loan Trustee or such purchaser all bills of sale, assignments,
releases and other proper instruments to effect such ratification and confirmation as may
reasonably be designated in any such request.
(d) At any time after the Loan Trustee has declared the unpaid principal amount of all
Equipment Notes then outstanding to be due and payable, or all Equipment Notes shall have become
due and payable as provided in the proviso to Section 4.02(a)(i), and, in either case, prior to the
sale of any part of the Collateral pursuant to this Article IV, a Majority in Interest of
Noteholders, by written notice to the Company and the Loan Trustee, may rescind and annul such
declaration, whether made by the Loan Trustee on its own accord or as directed or deemed
declaration, and its consequences if: (i) there has been paid to or deposited with the
Loan Trustee an amount sufficient to pay all overdue installments of principal amount of, and
interest on, the Equipment Notes, and all other amounts owing under the Operative Documents, that
have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and (ii) all other
Events of Default, other than nonpayment of principal amount or interest on the Equipment Notes
that have become due solely because of such acceleration, have been either cured or waived;
provided that no such rescission or annulment shall extend to or affect any subsequent
default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.
(e) Notwithstanding anything contained herein, (i) so long as the Pass Through Trustee
under any Pass Through Trust Agreement or the Subordination Agent on its behalf is a Noteholder,
the Loan Trustee will not be authorized or empowered to acquire title to any Collateral or take any
action with respect to any Collateral so acquired by it if such acquisition or action would cause
any Pass Through Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes, and
(ii) the Loan Trustee will not take any action that would
violate
Section 4.01(a)(ii) or
Section 4.01(a)(iii) of the Intercreditor Agreement.

Section 4.03. Remedies Cumulative. To the extent permitted under applicable law,
each and every right, power and remedy specifically given to the Loan Trustee herein or otherwise
in this Indenture shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other right, power and
remedy specifically given herein or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute, and
each and every right, power and remedy whether specifically given herein or otherwise existing may
be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the
Loan Trustee, and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of any power or remedy shall not be
construed to be a waiver of the right to exercise at the same time or thereafter any other right,
power or remedy. No delay or omission by the Loan Trustee in the exercise of any right, remedy or
power or in the pursuance of any remedy shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, impair
any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any default on the part of the
Company or to be an acquiescence therein.
Section 4.04. Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case the Loan Trustee shall have
instituted any proceedings to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Indenture by
foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for
any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Loan Trustee, then and in every such case
the Company and the Loan Trustee shall, subject to any determination in such proceedings, be
restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral, and all
rights, remedies and powers of the Loan Trustee shall continue as if no such proceedings had been
undertaken (but otherwise without prejudice).
Section 4.05. Waiver of Past Defaults. Upon written instruction from a Majority in
Interest of Noteholders, the Loan Trustee shall waive any past default hereunder and its
consequences, and upon any such waiver such default shall cease to exist and any Event of Default
arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture and the
other Operative Documents, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or
impair any right consequent thereon; provided that in the absence of written instructions
from each of the affected Noteholders, the Loan Trustee shall not waive any default (i) in
the payment of the principal amount, Make-Whole Amount, if any, or interest due under any Equipment
Note then outstanding (other than with the consent of the holder thereof), or (ii) in
respect of a covenant or provision hereof which, under Article IX, cannot be modified or amended
without the consent of each such affected Noteholder.
Section 4.06. Noteholders May Not Bring Suit Except Under Certain Conditions. A
Noteholder of any Series shall not have the right to institute any suit, action or proceeding at
law or in equity or otherwise with respect to this Indenture for the

appointment of a receiver or
for the enforcement of any other remedy under this Indenture, unless:
(1) such Noteholder previously shall have given written notice to the Loan Trustee of
a continuing Event of Default;
(2) a Majority in Interest of Noteholders shall have requested the Loan Trustee in
writing to institute such action, suit or proceeding and shall have offered to the Loan
Trustee indemnity as provided in Section 5.03;
(3) the Loan Trustee shall have refused or neglected to institute any such action,
suit or proceeding for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of
indemnity; and
(4) no direction inconsistent with such written request shall have been given to the
Loan Trustee during such 60-day period by a Majority in Interest of Noteholders.
Except to the extent provided in the Intercreditor Agreement or in any Indenture Supplement,
it is understood and intended that no one or more of the Noteholders of any Series shall have any
right in any manner whatsoever hereunder or under the Indenture Supplement or under the Equipment
Notes of such Series to (i) surrender, impair, waive, affect, disturb or prejudice any
Collateral, or the Lien of the Indenture on any Collateral, or the rights of the Noteholders of
such Series, (ii) obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference with respect to any
other such Noteholder of such Series or (iii) enforce any right under this Indenture,
except in the manner provided in this Indenture and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of
all the Noteholders of such Series subject to the provisions of this Indenture.
Section 4.07. Appointment of a Receiver. To the extent permitted by applicable law,
if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and the Equipment Notes either shall
have been accelerated pursuant to Section 4.02 or have become due at maturity, the Loan Trustee
shall, as a matter of right, be entitled to the appointment of a receiver (who may be the Loan
Trustee or any successor or nominee thereof) for all or any part of the Collateral, whether such
receivership be incidental to a proposed sale of the Collateral or the taking of possession thereof
or otherwise, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company hereby consents to the
appointment of such a receiver and will not oppose any such appointment. Any receiver appointed
for all or any part of the Collateral shall be entitled to exercise all the rights and powers of
the Loan Trustee with respect to the Collateral.

ARTICLE V
DUTIES OF THE LOAN TRUSTEE
Section 5.01. Notice of Event of Default. If the Loan Trustee shall have knowledge
of an Event of Default or of a default arising from a failure by the Company to pay when due any
payment of principal amount, interest, or Make-Whole Amount, if any, due and payable under any
Equipment Note, the Loan Trustee shall promptly give notice thereof to the Company, each Liquidity
Provider and each Noteholder by telegram, cable, facsimile or telephone (to be promptly confirmed
in writing). Subject to the terms of Section 4.02, Section 4.05, Section 5.02 and Section 5.03,
the Loan Trustee shall take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such
default or Event of Default (including with respect to the exercise of any rights or remedies
hereunder) as the Loan Trustee shall be instructed in writing by a Majority in Interest of
Noteholders. Subject to the provisions of Section 5.03, if the Loan Trustee shall not have
received instructions as above provided within 20 Business Days after giving notice of such default
or Event of Default to the Noteholders, the Loan Trustee may, subject to instructions thereafter
received pursuant to the preceding provisions of this Section 5.01, take such action, or refrain
from taking such action with respect to such default or Event of Default as it shall reasonably
determine to be advisable and in the best interests of the Noteholders, but shall be under no duty
to take or refrain from taking any action. The Loan Trustee shall use the same degree of care and
skill in connection therewith as a prudent person would use under the circumstances in the conduct
of his or her own affairs. The Loan Trustee may not sell the Airframe or any Engine without the
consent of a Majority in Interest of Noteholders.
For all purposes of this Indenture, in the absence of actual knowledge, the Loan Trustee shall
not be deemed to have knowledge of a default or an Event of Default unless notified in writing by
the Company or one or more Noteholders; and actual knowledge (as used in the foregoing clause) of
the Loan Trustee shall mean actual knowledge of an officer in the Corporate Trust Office of the
Loan Trustee; provided that the Loan Trustee shall be deemed to have actual knowledge of
(i) the failure of the Company to pay any principal amount of, or interest on, the
Equipment Notes directly to the Loan Trustee when the same shall become due or (ii) the
failure of the Company to maintain insurance as required under Section 7.06 if the Loan Trustee
receives written notice thereof from an insurer or insurance broker.
Section 5.02. Action upon Instructions; Certain Rights and Limitations. Subject to
the terms of Article IV and this Article V, upon the written instructions at any time of a Majority
in Interest of Noteholders, the Loan Trustee shall promptly (i) give such notice,
direction, consent, waiver or approval or exercise such right, remedy or power hereunder
Indenture and Security Agreement
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
[Reg. No.]
45
in respect
of all or any part of the Collateral or (ii) take such other action permitted hereunder, in
each case, as is specified in such instructions.
The Loan Trustee will cooperate with the Company in connection with the recording, filing,
re-recording and refiling of the Indenture and any supplements to it and any financing statements
or other documents as are necessary to maintain the perfection hereof or otherwise protect the
security interests created hereby. The Loan Trustee shall furnish to the Company upon request such
information and copies of such documents as the Loan Trustee may have and as are necessary for the
Company to perform its duties under Article II hereof.
Section 5.03. Indemnification. The Loan Trustee shall not be required to take any
action or refrain from taking any action under Section 5.01 (other than the first sentence thereof)
or Section 5.02 or Article IV unless it shall have received indemnification against any risks
incurred in connection therewith in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to it, including,
without limitation, adequate advances against costs that may be actually incurred by it in
connection therewith. The Loan Trustee shall not be required to take any action under Section 5.01
(other than the first sentence thereof) or Section 5.02 or Article IV, nor shall any other
provision of any Operative Document be deemed to impose a duty on the Loan Trustee to take any
action, if the Loan Trustee shall have been advised by outside counsel that such action is contrary
to the terms hereof or is otherwise contrary to law.
Section 5.04. No Duties Except as Specified in Indenture or Instructions. The Loan
Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to manage, control, lease, use, sell, operate, store,
dispose of or otherwise deal with the Aircraft or any other part of the Collateral, or to otherwise
take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, this Indenture, except as
expressly provided by the terms of this Indenture or the Participation Agreement or as expressly
provided in written instructions received pursuant to the terms of Section 5.01 or Section 5.02;
and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Loan Trustee.
Section 5.05. No Action Except under Indenture or Instructions. The Loan Trustee
agrees that it will not manage, control, use, sell, lease, operate, store, dispose of or otherwise
deal with the Aircraft or any other part of the Collateral except in accordance with the powers
granted to, or the authority conferred upon, the Loan Trustee pursuant to this Indenture and in
accordance with the express terms hereof.
Section 5.06. Investment of Amounts Held by the Loan Trustee. Any monies (including
for the purpose of this Section 5.06 any amounts held by the Loan Trustee pursuant to Section 3.02,
Section 3.03 or Section 3.07 or pursuant to any provision of any
Indenture and Security Agreement

other Operative Document providing
for amounts to be held by the Loan Trustee which are not distributed pursuant to the other
provisions of Article III, or any cash received by the Loan Trustee pursuant to Section 7.05(c) or
Section 7.06(d) or otherwise, or Permitted Investments purchased by the use of such cash pursuant
to this Section 5.06 or any cash constituting the proceeds of the maturity, sale or other
disposition of any such
Permitted Investments) held by the Loan Trustee hereunder as part of the Collateral, until
paid out by the Loan Trustee as herein provided, (i) subject to clause (ii) below and
Section 3.07, may be carried by the Loan Trustee on deposit with itself or on deposit to its
account with any bank, trust company or national banking association incorporated or doing business
under the laws of the United States or one of the states thereof having combined capital and
surplus and retained earnings of at least $100,000,000, and the Loan Trustee shall not have any
liability for interest upon any such monies except as otherwise agreed in writing with the Company,
or (ii) at any time and from time to time, so long as no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, at the request of the Company, shall be invested and reinvested in
Permitted Investments as specified in such request (if such investments are reasonably available
for purchase) and sold, in any case at such prices, including accrued interest or its equivalent,
as are set forth in such request, and, as provided in Section 3.07, such Permitted Investments
shall be held by the Loan Trustee in trust as part of the Collateral until so sold;
provided that the Company shall upon demand pay to the Loan Trustee the amount of any loss
realized upon maturity, sale or other disposition of any such Permitted Investment and, so long as
no Event of Default or Payment Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company shall be
entitled to receive from the Loan Trustee, and the Loan Trustee shall promptly pay to the Company,
any profit, income, interest, dividend or gain realized upon maturity, sale or other disposition of
any Permitted Investment. All Permitted Investments held by the Loan Trustee pursuant to this
Section 5.06 shall be held pursuant to Section 3.07. If an Event of Default or Payment Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, any net income, profit, interest, dividend or gain realized
upon maturity, sale or other disposition of any Permitted Investment shall be held as part of the
Collateral and shall be applied by the Loan Trustee at the same time, on the same conditions and in
the same manner as the amounts in respect of which such income, profit, interest, dividend or gain
was realized are required to be distributed in accordance with the provisions hereof pursuant to
which such amounts were required to be held. Subject to Section 3.03, at such time as there shall
not be continuing any such Event of Default or Payment Default, such income, profit, interest,
dividend or gain shall be paid to the Company. In addition, subject to Section 3.03, if any moneys
or investments are held by the Loan Trustee solely because an Event of Default or Payment Default
has occurred and is continuing, at such time as there shall not be continuing any such Event of
Default or Payment Default, such moneys and investments shall be paid to the Company. The Loan
Trustee shall not be responsible for any losses on any investments or sales of Permitted
Investments made pursuant to the

Trustee so that any portion thereof paid or applied pursuant hereto shall be identifiable as to the
source thereof.

Participation Agreement, certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of such party as duly
adopted and in full force and effect, as conclusive evidence that such resolution has been duly
adopted and that the same is in full force and effect. As to any fact or matter the manner of
ascertainment of which is not specifically described herein, the Loan Trustee may for all purposes
hereof rely on a certificate, signed by a duly authorized officer of the Company, as to such fact
or matter, and such certificate shall constitute full protection to the Loan Trustee for any action
taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in reliance thereon. In the administration of the
trusts hereunder, the Loan Trustee may (a) execute any of the trusts or powers hereof and
perform its powers and duties hereunder directly or through agents (including paying agents or
registrars) or attorneys, and (b) at the expense of the Collateral, consult with counsel,
accountants and other skilled Persons to be selected and retained by it; provided that,
prior to retaining agents (including paying agents or registrars), counsel, accountants or other
skilled Persons, so long as no Event of Default exists, the Loan Trustee shall obtain the Companys
consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). The Loan Trustee shall not be liable for
anything done, suffered or omitted in good faith by it in accordance with the advice or opinion of
any such counsel, accountants or other skilled Persons acting within such counsels, accountants
or Persons area of competence (so long as the Loan Trustee shall have exercised reasonable care
and judgment in selecting such Persons).

created hereunder, the Loan Trustee shall have the right to seek instructions from a

or similar proceeding and shall not have substantially all of its property in the
possession of any liquidator, trustee, receiver or similar person, and (y) in the
case of a lease to any foreign manufacturer or foreign Affiliate under clause (B) above,
the re-registration conditions set forth in Section 7.02(e) shall be satisfied

thereof that does not comply with Section 7.02(b) and Section 7.02(c) or (y) permit any
action not permitted to be taken by the Company with respect to the Aircraft hereunder. The
Company shall promptly notify the Loan Trustee and the Rating Agencies of the existence of any such

subject to
such lease or conditional sale or other security agreement or (B) any airframe owned by the
Company (or any Permitted Lessee) or the lessor under such lease or subject to a security interest
in favor of the secured party under any conditional sale or other security agreement as the result
of any Engine being installed on such airframe at any time while such airframe is subject to such
lease or conditional sale or other security agreement.
The Loan Trustee acknowledges that any wet lease or other similar arrangement under which
the Company maintains operational control of the Aircraft shall not constitute a delivery, transfer
or relinquishment of possession for purposes of this Section 7.02(a).
(b) Operation and Use. The Company agrees that the Aircraft will not be maintained,
used, serviced, repaired, overhauled or operated in violation of any law, rule or regulation of any
government of any country having jurisdiction over the Aircraft or in violation of any
airworthiness certificate, license or registration relating to the Aircraft issued by any such
government, except to the extent the Company is contesting in good faith the validity or
application of any such law, rule or regulation or airworthiness certificate, license or
registration in any manner that does not involve any material risk of
sale, forfeiture or loss of the Aircraft or impair the Lien of this Indenture;
provided that the Company shall not be in default under, or required to take any action set
forth in, this sentence if it is not possible for it to comply with the laws of a jurisdiction
other than the United States (or other than any jurisdiction in which the Aircraft is then
registered) because of a conflict with the applicable laws of the United States (or such
jurisdiction in which the Aircraft is then registered). The Company will not operate the Aircraft,
or permit the Aircraft to be operated or located, (i) in any area excluded from coverage by
any insurance required by the terms of Section 7.06 or (ii) in any war zone or recognized
or, in the Companys judgment, threatened areas of hostilities unless covered by war risk insurance
in accordance with Section 7.06, unless in the case of either clause (i) or (ii), (x)
governmental indemnification complying with Section 7.06(a) and Section 7.06(b) has been provided
or (y) the Aircraft is only temporarily located in such area as a result of an isolated
occurrence or isolated series of occurrences attributable to a hijacking, medical emergency,
equipment malfunction, weather conditions, navigational error or other similar unforeseen
circumstances and the Company is using its good faith efforts to remove the Aircraft from such area
as promptly as practicable.
(c) Maintenance. The Company shall maintain, service, repair and overhaul the
Aircraft (or cause the same to be done) (i) so as to keep the Aircraft in as good operating
condition as on the Closing Date, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and in such condition as may be
necessary to enable the airworthiness certification of the Aircraft to be maintained in good
standing at all times (other than during temporary periods of
Indenture and Security Agreement
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
[Reg. No.]
55
storage, during maintenance or
modification permitted hereunder, or during periods of grounding by applicable governmental
authorities) under the Transportation Code, during such periods in which the Aircraft is registered
under the laws of the United States, or, if the Aircraft is registered under the laws of any other
jurisdiction, the applicable laws of such jurisdiction and (ii) using the same standards as
the Company or, in the case of a lease permitted pursuant to Section 7.02(a), the applicable
Permitted Lessee uses with respect to similar aircraft operated by the Company or such Permitted
Lessee, as the case may be, in similar circumstances (in any case, without limitation of the
Companys obligations under the preceding clause (i)). In any case the Aircraft will be maintained
in accordance with a maintenance program for Boeing [737-800]12 [757-200]13
[777-200ER]14 aircraft approved by the FAA or, if the Aircraft is not registered in the
United States, (i) the EASA or the JAA, (ii) the central aviation authority of
Australia, Canada, Japan or New Zealand, or (iii) the central aviation authority of any
country with aircraft maintenance standards that are substantially similar to those of the United
States or any
of the foregoing authorities or countries. The Company shall maintain or cause to be
maintained all records, logs and other documents required to be maintained in respect of the
Aircraft by appropriate authorities in the jurisdiction in which the Aircraft is registered.
(d) Identification of Loan Trustees Interest. The Company agrees to affix as
promptly as practicable after the Closing Date and thereafter to maintain in the cockpit of the
Aircraft, in a clearly visible location, and (if not prevented by applicable law or regulations or
by any government) on each Engine, a nameplate bearing the inscription MORTGAGED TO U.S. BANK
TRUST NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, AS LOAN TRUSTEE (such nameplate to be replaced, if necessary, with a
nameplate reflecting the name of any successor Loan Trustee). If any such nameplate is damaged
beyond repair or becomes illegible, the Company shall promptly replace it with a nameplate
complying with the requirements of this Section.
(e) Registration. The Company shall cause the Aircraft to remain duly registered,
under the laws of the United States, in the name of the Company except as otherwise required by the
Transportation Code; provided that the Loan Trustee shall, at the Companys expense,
execute and deliver all such documents as the Company may

reasonably request for the purpose of
continuing such registration. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Company, at its own
expense, may cause or allow the Aircraft to be duly registered under the laws of any foreign
jurisdiction in which a Permitted Lessee could be principally based, in the name of the Company or
of any nominee of the Company, or, if required by applicable law, in the name of any other Person
(and, following any such foreign registration, may cause the Aircraft to be re-registered under the
laws of the United States); provided that in the case of jurisdictions other than those
approved by the Loan Trustee with the consent of a Majority in Interest of Noteholders (i)
if such jurisdiction is at the time of registration listed on Exhibit B, the Loan Trustee shall
have received at the time of such registration an opinion of counsel to the Company to the effect
that (A) this Indenture and the Loan Trustees right to repossession thereunder is valid
and enforceable under the laws of such country, (B) after giving effect to such change in
registration, the Lien of this Indenture shall continue as a valid Lien and shall be duly perfected
in the new jurisdiction of registration and that all filing, recording or other action necessary to
perfect and protect the Lien of this Indenture has been accomplished (or if such opinion cannot be
given at such time, (x) the opinion shall detail what filing, recording or other action is
necessary and (y) the Loan Trustee shall have received a certificate from a Responsible
Officer of the Company that all possible preparations to accomplish such filing, recording and
other action shall have been done, and such filing, recording and other action shall be
accomplished and a supplemental opinion to that effect shall be promptly delivered to the Loan
Trustee subsequent to the effective date of such change in registration), (C) the
obligations of the Company under this Indenture shall remain valid, binding and (subject to
customary bankruptcy and equitable remedies exceptions and to other exceptions customary in foreign
opinions generally) enforceable under the laws of such jurisdiction (or the laws of the jurisdiction to
which the laws of such jurisdiction would refer as the applicable governing law) and (D)
all approvals or consents of any government in such jurisdiction having jurisdiction required for
such change in registration shall have been duly obtained and shall be in full force and effect,
and (ii) if such jurisdiction is at the time of registration not listed on Exhibit B, the
Loan Trustee shall have received (in addition to the opinions set forth in clause (i) above) at the
time of such registration an opinion of counsel to the Company to the effect that (A) the
terms of this Indenture are legal, valid, binding and enforceable in such jurisdiction (subject to
exceptions customary in such jurisdiction, provided that, subject to bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally,
and to general principles of equity, any applicable laws limiting the remedies provided in Section
4.02 do not in the opinion of such counsel make the remedies provided in Section 4.02 inadequate
for the practical realization of the rights and benefits provided thereby), (B) that it is
not necessary for the Loan Trustee to register or qualify to do business in such jurisdiction,
(C) that there is no tort liability of the lender of an aircraft not in possession thereof
under the laws of such jurisdiction other
Indenture and Security Agreement
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
[Reg. No.]
57
than tort liability that might have been imposed on such
lender under the laws of the United States or any state thereof (it being understood that such
opinion shall be waived if insurance reasonably satisfactory to the Loan Trustee is provided, at
the Companys expense, to cover such risk) and (D) (unless the Company shall have agreed to
provide insurance covering the risk of requisition of use or title of the Aircraft by the
government of such jurisdiction so long as the Aircraft is registered under the laws of such
jurisdiction) that the laws of such jurisdiction require fair compensation by the government of
such jurisdiction payable in currency freely convertible into Dollars for the loss of use or title
of the Aircraft in the event of requisition by such government of such use or title. The Loan
Trustee will cooperate with the Company in effecting such foreign registration. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, prior to any such change in the country of registry of the Aircraft, the following
conditions shall be met (or waived as provided in Section 6.01(b) of the Participation Agreement):
(i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the effective date of
the change in registration; provided that it shall not be necessary to comply with
this condition if the change in registration results in the registration of the Aircraft
under the laws of the United States or if a Majority in Interest of Noteholders consents to
such change in registration;
(ii) the Loan Trustee shall have received evidence of compliance with the insurance
provisions contained herein after giving effect to such change in registration; and
(iii) the Company shall have paid or made provision reasonably satisfactory to the
Loan Trustee for the payment of all reasonable expenses
(including reasonable attorneys fees) of the Loan Trustee and the Noteholders in
connection with such change in registration.
The Company shall (i) take such actions as may be required to be taken by the Company
so that any International Interest arising in relation to this Indenture, the Aircraft, any
Replacement Aircraft, any Engine or Replacement Engine may be duly registered (and any such
registration may be assigned, amended, extended or discharged) at the International Registry, and
(ii) obtain from the International Registry all approvals as may be required duly and
timely to perform the Companys obligations under this Indenture with respect to the registration
of any such International Interest. The Loan Trustee shall take all actions necessary with respect
to the International Registry to consent to the Companys initiation of any registrations required
under this Indenture to enable the Company to complete such registrations, including, without
limitation, appointing Daugherty, Fowler, Peregrin, Haught & Jenson, a Professional Corporation, as
Indenture and Security Agreement

[Reg. No.]
58
its professional user entity (as defined in the Cape Town Treaty) to consent to any registrations
on the International Registry with respect to the Airframe or any Engine.
Section 7.03. Inspection; Financial Information. (a) Inspection. At all
reasonable times, but upon at least 15 Business Days prior written notice to the Company, the Loan
Trustee or its authorized representative may, subject to the other conditions of this Section
7.03(a), inspect the Aircraft and may inspect the books and records of the Company required to be
maintained by the FAA or the government of another jurisdiction in which the Aircraft is then
registered relating to the maintenance of the Aircraft; provided that (i) the Loan
Trustee or its representative shall be fully insured at no cost to the Company in a manner
satisfactory to the Company with respect to any risks incurred in connection with any such
inspection or shall provide to the Company a written release satisfactory to the Company with
respect to such risks, (ii) any such inspection shall be subject to the safety, security
and workplace rules applicable at the location where such inspection is conducted and any
applicable governmental rules or regulations, (iii) any such inspection of the Aircraft
shall be a visual, walk-around inspection of the interior and exterior of the Aircraft and shall
not include opening any panels, bays or the like without the Companys express consent, which
consent the Company may in its sole discretion withhold, and (iv) no exercise of such
inspection right shall interfere with the use, operation or maintenance of the Aircraft by, or the
business of, the Company and the Company shall not be required to undertake or incur any additional
liabilities in connection therewith. All information obtained in connection with any such
inspection of the Aircraft and of such books and records shall be Confidential Information and
shall be treated by the Loan Trustee and its representatives in accordance with the provisions of
Section 10.16. Any inspection pursuant to this Section 7.03(a) shall be at the sole risk
(including, without limitation, any risk of personal injury or death) and expense of the Loan
Trustee (or its representative), as the case may be, making such inspection. Except during the
continuance of an Event of Default, all inspections by the Loan Trustee and its representatives
provided for under this Section
7.03(a) shall be limited to one inspection of any kind contemplated by this Section 7.03(a)
during any calendar year.
(b) Financial Information. So long as any of the Secured Obligations remain unpaid,
the Company agrees to furnish to the Loan Trustee and each Liquidity Provider: (i) within
60 days after the end of each of the first three quarterly periods in each fiscal year of the
Company, either (x) a consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its consolidated

respect of such year in the form filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and
(iii) within 60 days of the filing thereof, a copy of any Current Report on Form 8-K filed

pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above shall be deemed to have been furnished on the date on
which such item is posted on the SECs website at www.sec.gov, and such posting shall be deemed to
satisfy the requirements of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii).
Section 7.04. Replacement and Pooling of Parts; Alterations, Modifications and Additions;
Airframe and Engine Substitutions. (a) Replacement of Parts. The Company, at its own
expense, shall promptly replace all Parts that may from time to time be incorporated or installed
in or attached to the Airframe or any Engine and that may from time to time become worn out, lost,
stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged beyond repair or rendered permanently unfit for use
for any reason whatsoever, except as otherwise provided in Section 7.04(c) or if the Airframe or an
Engine to which a Part relates has suffered an Event of Loss. In addition, the Company, at its own
expense, may remove in the ordinary course of maintenance, service, repair, overhaul or testing,
any Parts, whether or not worn out, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged beyond
repair or rendered permanently unfit for use; provided that the Company, except as
otherwise provided in Section 7.04(c), at its own expense, will replace such Parts as promptly as
practicable. All replacement Parts shall be free and clear of all Liens (except for Permitted
Liens and except in the case of replacement property temporarily installed on an emergency basis)
and shall have a value and utility at least equal to the Parts replaced, assuming such replaced
Parts were in the condition and repair required to be maintained by the terms hereof. Except as
otherwise provided in Section 7.04(c), all Parts at any time removed from the Airframe or any
Engine shall remain subject to the Lien of this Indenture no matter where located until such time
as such Parts shall be replaced by parts that have been incorporated or installed in or attached to
the Airframe or such Engine and that meet the requirements for replacement Parts specified above.
Immediately upon any replacement Part becoming incorporated or installed in or attached to the
Airframe or any Engine as above provided (except in the case of replacement property temporarily
installed on an emergency basis), without further act, (i) the replaced Part shall
thereupon be free and clear of all rights of the Loan Trustee and of the Lien of this Indenture and
shall no longer be deemed a Part hereunder and (ii) such replacement Part shall become
subject to the Lien of this Indenture and be deemed a Part of the Airframe or such Engine for all
purposes to the same extent as the Parts originally incorporated or installed in or attached to the
Airframe or such Engine. Upon request of the Company from time to time, the Loan Trustee shall
execute and deliver to the
Indenture and Security Agreement
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
[Reg. No.]
60
Company an appropriate instrument confirming the release of any such
replaced Part from the Lien of this Indenture.
(b) Pooling of Parts. Any Part removed from the Airframe or any Engine as provided in
Section 7.04(a) may be subjected by the Company or a Person permitted to be in possession of the
Aircraft to a pooling arrangement customary in the airline industry entered into in the ordinary
course of the Companys or such Persons business; provided that the part replacing such
removed Part shall be incorporated or installed in or attached to the Airframe or such Engine in
accordance with Section 7.04(a) as promptly as practicable after the removal of such removed Part.
In addition, any replacement Part when incorporated or installed in or attached to the Airframe or
any Engine may be owned by any third party subject to such a pooling arrangement; provided
that the Company, at its expense, as promptly thereafter as practicable, either (i) causes
title to such replacement Part to vest in the Company free and clear of all Liens (except Permitted
Liens), or (ii) replaces such replacement Part by incorporating or installing in or
attaching to the Airframe or such Engine a further replacement Part in the manner contemplated by
Section 7.04(a).
(c) Alterations, Modifications and Additions. The Company will make such alterations
and modifications in and additions to the Airframe and the Engines as may be required from time to
time to meet the applicable requirements of the FAA or any applicable government of any other
jurisdiction in which the Aircraft may then be registered; provided that the Company may,
in good faith, contest the validity or application of any such requirement in any manner that does
not involve any material risk of sale, loss or forfeiture of the Aircraft and does not adversely
affect the Loan Trustees interest in the Collateral. In addition, the Company, at its own
expense, may from time to time add further parts or accessories and make or cause to be made such
alterations and modifications in and additions to the Airframe or any Engine as the Company may
deem desirable in the proper conduct of its business, including, without limitation, removal
(without replacement) of Parts, provided that no such alteration, modification or addition
shall materially diminish the value or utility of the Airframe or such Engine below its value or
utility, immediately prior to such alteration, modification or addition, assuming that the Airframe
or such Engine was then in the condition required to be maintained by the terms of this Indenture,
except that the value (but not the utility) of the Airframe or
any Engine may be reduced by the value of any such Parts that shall have been removed that the
Company deems obsolete or no longer suitable or appropriate for use on the Airframe or any Engine.
All Parts incorporated or installed in or attached or added to the Airframe or any Engine as the
result of such alteration, modification or addition shall be free and clear of any Liens, other
than Permitted Liens, and shall, without further act, be subject to the Lien of this Indenture.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, at any time, remove any Part from the Airframe or
any Engine if such Part: (i) is in
Indenture and Security Agreement
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
[Reg. No.]
61
addition to, and not in replacement of or substitution
for, any Part originally incorporated or installed in or attached to the Airframe or such Engine at
the time of delivery thereof to the Company or any Part in replacement of, or substitution for, any
such Part, (ii) is not required to be incorporated or installed in or attached or added to
the Airframe or such Engine pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 7.04(c) or Section
7.02(d) and (iii) can be removed from the Airframe or such Engine without materially
diminishing the value or utility required to be maintained by the terms of this Indenture that the
Airframe or such Engine would have had had such Part never been installed on the Airframe or such
Engine. Upon the removal by the Company of any Part as permitted by this Section 7.04(c), such
removed Part shall, without further act, be free and clear of all rights and interests of the Loan
Trustee and the Lien of this Indenture and shall no longer be deemed a Part hereunder. Upon
request of the Company from time to time, the Loan Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Company
an appropriate instrument confirming the release of any such removed Part from the Lien of this
Indenture.
(d) Substitution of Engines. The Company shall have the right at its option at any
time, on at least 30 days prior written notice to the Loan Trustee, to substitute a Replacement
Engine for any Engine. In such event, and prior to the date of such substitution, the Company
shall replace such Engine hereunder by complying with the terms of Section 7.05(b) to the same
extent as if an Event of Loss had occurred with respect to such Engine.
(e) Substitution of Airframe. The Company shall have the right at its option at any
time, on at least 10 Business Days prior written notice to the Loan Trustee, to substitute a
Substitute Airframe, free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens), for the Airframe so
long as (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of
substitution, (ii) the Substitute Airframe has a date of manufacture no earlier than one
year prior to the date of manufacture of the Airframe subject to the Lien of this Indenture on the
Closing Date (each such date of manufacture, in each case, to be deemed to be the date of original
delivery of the applicable airframe to a customer by the Manufacturer) and (iii) the
Substitute Airframe has a MCMV (as defined below) at least equal to the MCMV of the Airframe being
replaced by the Substitute Airframe (assuming that the Airframe had been maintained in accordance
with the Indenture), in each case as determined by a desktop appraisal dated as of a date within
the 60-day period prior to the substitution performed by an Appraiser selected by the Company.
MCMV is the current market value (as defined by the International Society of Transport Aircraft
Trading or any successor organization) adjusted for the maintenance status of the Substitute
Airframe and the Airframe being replaced by the Substitute Airframe, as applicable, such
maintenance status to be based upon maintenance data provided by the Company to the applicable
Appraiser with respect to the Substitute Airframe and such

(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
[Reg. No.]
62
Airframe as of the same date within the
60-day period prior to the substitution for both the Substitute Airframe and such Airframe.
Prior to or at the time of any substitution under this Section 7.04(e), the Company will
(A) cause an Indenture Supplement covering such Substitute Airframe to be delivered to the
Loan Trustee for execution and, upon such execution, to be filed for recordation pursuant to the
Transportation Code or the applicable laws of any other jurisdiction in which the Aircraft may then
be registered, (B) cause the sale of such Substitute Airframe to the Company (if occurring

expense to the Loan Trustee, aircraft liability insurance (including, but not limited to,
bodily injury, personal injury and property damage liability, exclusive of manufacturers
product liability insurance) and contractual liability insurance with respect to the
Aircraft (A) in amounts that are not less than the aircraft liability insurance
applicable to similar aircraft and engines in the Companys fleet on which the Company
carries insurance (or, in the case of a lease to a Permitted Lessee, in such Permitted
Lessees fleet on which such Permitted Lessee carries insurance); provided that
such liability insurance (including self-insurance specified in Section 7.06(c)) shall not
be less than the amount certified in the insurance report delivered to the Loan Trustee and
each Liquidity Provider on the Closing Date, (B) of the type usually carried by
corporations engaged in the same or similar business, similarly situated with the Company
or such Permitted Lessee, as the case may be, and owning or operating similar aircraft and
engines and covering risks of the kind customarily insured against by the Company or such
Permitted Lessee, as the case may be, and (C) that is maintained in effect with
insurers of recognized responsibility; provided that the Company will carry, or
cause to be carried, at no expense to the Loan Trustee, aircraft liability war risk and
allied perils insurance if and to the extent the same is maintained by the Company or such
Permitted Lessee, as the case may be, with respect to other aircraft operated by the

policies
Indenture and Security Agreement
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
[Reg. No.]
71
of insurance carried in accordance with this Section 7.06(a) and any policies
taken out in substitution or replacement for any of such policies shall (A) name
the Loan Trustee, the Subordination Agent, each Pass Through Trustee and each Liquidity
Provider as their Interests (as defined below in this Section 7.06) may appear, as
additional insureds (the Specified Persons), (B) subject to the
conditions of clause (C) below, provide that, in respect of the interests of the Specified
Persons in such policies, the insurance shall not be invalidated by any
action or inaction of the Company (or any Permitted Lessee) and shall insure the
Specified Persons Interests as they appear, regardless of any breach or violation of any
warranty, declaration or condition contained in such policies by the Company (or any
Permitted Lessee), (C) provide that, except to the extent not provided for by the
war risk and allied perils insurance provider, if such insurance is canceled for any reason
whatever, or if any change is made in the policy that materially reduces the amount of
insurance or the coverage certified in the insurance report delivered on the Closing Date
to the Loan Trustee and each Liquidity Provider, or if such insurance is allowed to lapse
for nonpayment of premium, such cancellation, change or lapse shall not be effective as to
any Specified Person for 30 days (seven days, or such other period as is customarily
available in the industry, in the case of any war risk or allied perils coverage) after
receipt by such Specified Person of written notice from such insurers of such cancellation,
change or lapse, (D) provide that the Specified Persons shall have no obligation or
liability for premiums, commissions, assessments or calls in connection with such
insurance, (E) provide that the insurers shall waive any rights of (1)
set-off, counterclaim or any other deduction, whether by attachment or otherwise, in

that the Company has waived its rights by its agreements to indemnify the Specified Persons
pursuant to the Operative Documents, (F) be primary without right of contribution
from any other insurance that may be carried by each Specified Person with respect to its
Interests as such in the Aircraft and (G) expressly provide that all of the
provisions thereof, except the limits of liability, shall operate in the same manner as if
there were a separate policy covering each insured. Interests as used in this
Section 7.06(a) and in Section 7.06(b) with respect to any Person means the interests of
such Person in the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents. In the case of a
lease or contract with any government in respect of the Aircraft or any Engine, or in the
case of any requisition for use of the Aircraft or any Engine by any government, a valid
agreement by such government to indemnify the Company, or an insurance policy issued by
such government, against any of the risks that the Company is required hereunder to insure
against shall be considered adequate insurance for

[Reg. No.]
72
purposes of this Section 7.06(a) to the
extent of the risks (and in the amounts) that are the subject of such indemnification or
insurance. To the extent that the war risk and allied perils insurance provider does not
provide for provision of direct notice to each Specified Person of cancellation, change or
lapse in the insurance required hereunder, the Company hereby agrees that upon receipt of
notice of any thereof from such insurance provider it shall give each Specified Person
immediate notice of each cancellation or lapse of, or material change to, such
insurance.
(ii) During any period that the Airframe or an Engine, as the case may be, is on the
ground and not in operation, the Company may carry or cause to be carried as to such
non-operating Airframe or Engine, in lieu of the insurance required by clause (i) above,
and subject to self-insurance to the extent permitted by Section 7.06(c), insurance
otherwise conforming with the provisions of said clause (i) except that: (A) the
amounts of coverage shall not be required to exceed the amounts of airline liability
insurance from time to time applicable to airframes or engines owned or leased by the
Company (or, in the case of a lease to a Permitted Lessee, such Permitted Lessee) of the
same type as such non-operating Airframe or Engine and that are on the ground and not in
operation and (B) the scope of the risks covered and the type of insurance shall be
the same as from time to time shall be applicable to airframes or engines owned or leased
by the Company (or such Permitted Lessee) of the same type as such non-operating Airframe
or Engine and that are on the ground and not in operation.
(b) Insurance Against Loss or Damage to Aircraft.
(i) Except as provided in clause (ii) of this subsection (b), and subject to the
rights of the Company to establish and maintain self-insurance in the manner and to the
extent specified in Section 7.06(c), the Company shall maintain, or cause to be maintained,
in effect with insurers of recognized responsibility, at no expense to the Loan Trustee,
all-risk aircraft hull insurance covering the Aircraft and all-risk coverage with respect
to any Engines or Parts while removed from the Aircraft (including, without limitation, war
risk and allied perils insurance if and to the extent the same is maintained by the Company
(or, in the case of a lease to a Permitted Lessee, such Permitted Lessee) with respect to
other aircraft operated by the Company or such Permitted Lessee, as the case may be, on the
same or similar routes) that is of the type usually carried by corporations engaged in the
same or similar business and similarly situated with the Company or such Permitted Lessee,
as the case may be; provided that (A) such insurance (including the
permitted self-insurance) shall at all times while the Aircraft is subject to this
Indenture be for an amount not less than 110% of the

aggregate outstanding principal amount
of the Equipment Notes from time to time and (B) such insurance need not cover an
Engine while attached to an airframe not owned, leased or operated by the Company, provided
that such Engine is covered by a separate policy of insurance. Any policies carried in
accordance with this Section 7.06(b) and any policies taken out in substitution or
replacement for any such policies shall (A) provide that (I) any insurance
proceeds up to an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Equipment Notes, together with
accrued but unpaid interest thereon, plus an amount equal to the interest that would accrue
on the outstanding principal amount of the Equipment Notes at the Debt Rate in effect on
the date of payment of such insurance proceeds to the Loan Trustee (as provided for in this
sentence) during the period commencing on the day following the date of such payment to the
Loan Trustee and ending on the Loss Payment Date (the sum of such three amounts being the
Loan Amount), payable for any loss or damage constituting an Event of Loss with
respect to the Aircraft, and (II) any insurance proceeds in excess of the amount
set forth on Exhibit C up to the amount of the Loan Amount for any loss or damage to the
Aircraft (or Engines) not constituting an Event of Loss with respect to the Aircraft, shall
be paid to the Loan Trustee as long as this Indenture shall not have been discharged, and
that all other amounts shall be payable to the Company, unless the insurer shall have
received notice that an Event of Default exists, in which case all insurance proceeds for
any loss or damage to the Aircraft (or Engines) up to the amount of the Loan Amount shall
be payable to the Loan Trustee, (B) subject to the conditions of clause (C) below,
provide that, in respect of the interests of the Specified Persons in such policies, the
insurance shall not be invalidated by any action or inaction of the Company (or any
Permitted Lessee) and shall insure the Specified Persons Interests as they appear,
regardless of any breach or violation of any warranty, declaration or condition contained
in such policies by the Company (or any Permitted Lessee), (C) provide that, except
to the extent not provided by the war risk and allied perils insurance provider, if such
insurance is canceled for any reason whatsoever, or if any change is made in the policy
that materially reduces the amount of insurance or the coverage certified in the insurance
report delivered on the Closing Date to the Loan Trustee and each Liquidity Provider, or if
such insurance is allowed to lapse for nonpayment of premium, such cancellation, change or
lapse shall not be effective as to the Specified Persons for 30 days (seven days, or such
other period as is customarily available in the industry, in the case of war risk or allied
perils coverage) after receipt by the Specified Persons of written notice from such
insurers of such cancellation, change or lapse, (D) provide that the Specified
Persons shall have no obligation or liability for premiums, commissions, assessments or
calls in connection with such insurance, (E) provide that the
Indenture and Security Agreement
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
[Reg. No.]
74
insurers shall waive
rights of (1) set-off, counterclaim or any other deduction, whether by attachment
or otherwise, in respect of any liability of the Specified Persons to the extent of any
moneys due to the Specified Persons and (2) subrogation against the Specified
Persons to the extent the Company has waived its rights by its agreement to indemnify the
Specified Persons pursuant to the Operative Documents, and (F) be primary without
right of contribution from any
other insurance that may be carried by any Specified Person with respect to its
Interests as such in the Aircraft. In the case of a lease or contract with any government
in respect of the Aircraft or any Engine, or in the case of any requisition for use of the
Aircraft or any Engine by any government, a valid agreement by such government to indemnify
the Company, or an insurance policy issued by such government, against any risks which the
Company is required hereunder to insure against shall be considered adequate insurance for
purposes of this Section 7.06(b) to the extent of the risks (and in the amounts) that are
the subject of such indemnification or insurance. To the extent that the war risk and
allied perils insurance provider does not provide for provision of direct notice to each
Specified Person of cancellation, change or lapse in the insurance required hereunder, the
Company hereby agrees that upon receipt of notice of any thereof from such insurance
provider it shall give each Specified Person immediate notice of each cancellation or lapse
of, or material change to, such insurance.
(ii) During any period that the Airframe or an Engine is on the ground and not in
operation, the Company may carry or cause to be carried as to such non-operating Airframe
or Engine, in lieu of the insurance required by clause (i) above, and subject to
self-insurance to the extent permitted by Section 7.06(c), insurance otherwise conforming
with the provisions of said clause (i) except that the scope of the risks covered and the
type of insurance shall be the same as from time to time applicable to airframes or engines
owned or leased by the Company (or, if a lease is then in effect, by the Permitted Lessee)
of the same type as such non-operating Airframe or Engine and that are on the ground and
not in operation; provided that, subject to self-insurance to the extent permitted
by Section 7.06(c), the Company (or such Permitted Lessee) shall maintain insurance against
risk of loss or damage to such non-operating Airframe in an amount at least equal to 110%
of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Equipment Notes during such period
that such Airframe is on the ground and not in operation.
(c) Self-Insurance. The Company may from time-to-time self-insure, by way of
deductible, self-insured retention, premium adjustment or franchise or otherwise (including, with
respect to insurance maintained pursuant to Section 7.06(a) or Section 7.06(b), insuring for a
maximum amount that is less than the amounts set forth in Section 7.06(a) and Section 7.06(b)), the
risks required to be insured against pursuant to
Indenture and Security Agreement
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
[Reg. No.]
75
Section 7.06(a) and Section 7.06(b), but in no
case shall the self-insurance with respect to all of the aircraft and engines in the Companys
fleet (including, without limitation, the Aircraft) exceed for any 12-month policy year 1% of the
average aggregate insurable value (for the preceding policy year) of all aircraft (including,
without limitation, the Aircraft) on which the Company carries insurance, unless an insurance
broker of national standing shall certify that the standard among all other major United States
airlines is a
higher level of self-insurance, in which case the Company may self-insure the Aircraft to such
higher level. In addition to the foregoing right to self-insure, the Company may self-insure to
the extent of (1) any deductible per occurrence that, in the case of the Aircraft, is not
in excess of the amount customarily allowed as a deductible in the industry or is required to
facilitate claims handling or (2) any applicable mandatory minimum per aircraft (or if
applicable per annum or other period) hull or liability insurance deductibles imposed by the
aircraft or hull liability insurers.
(d) Application of Insurance Payments. All losses will be adjusted by the Company
with the insurers. As between the Loan Trustee and the Company it is agreed that all insurance
payments received under policies required to be maintained by the Company hereunder, exclusive of
any payments received in excess of the Loan Amount, as the result of the occurrence of an Event of
Loss with respect to the Airframe or an Engine will be applied as follows:
(i) if such payments are received with respect to the Airframe or the Airframe and any
Engines installed on the Airframe that has been or is being replaced by the Company
pursuant to Section 7.05(a), such payments shall be paid over to, or retained by, the Loan
Trustee and upon completion of such replacement shall be paid over to, or retained by, the
Company;
(ii) if such payments are received with respect to the Airframe or the Airframe and
any Engines installed on the Airframe that has not been and will not be replaced as
contemplated by Section 7.05(a), so much of such payments remaining after reimbursement of
the Loan Trustee for its costs and expenses as shall not exceed the amounts required to be
paid by the Company pursuant to Section 2.10 hereof shall be applied (A) in
reduction of the Companys obligation to pay such amounts, if not already paid by the
Company, or, if already paid by the Company, shall be applied to reimburse the Company for
its payment of such amounts and (B) the balance, if any, of such payment remaining
thereafter will be paid over to, or retained by, the Company or its designee; and
(iii) if such payments are received with respect to an Engine with regard to which an
Event of Loss contemplated by Section 7.05(b) has occurred, so much of such payments
remaining after reimbursement of the Loan Trustee for
Indenture and Security Agreement
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
[Reg. No.]
76
its costs and expenses shall be paid
over to, or retained by, the Company or its designee; provided that the Company
shall have fully performed its obligations under Section 7.05(b) with respect to the Event
of Loss for which such payments are made.
In all events, (x) the insurance payment of any property damage or loss with respect
to property other than the Airframe or any Engine received under policies maintained by the
Company, and (y) the insurance payment for any loss or damage to the Aircraft in excess of
the Loan Amount, shall be paid to the Company or its designee.
The insurance payments for any loss or damage to the Airframe or an Engine not constituting an
Event of Loss with respect to the Airframe or such Engine will be applied in payment (or to
reimburse the Company) for repairs or for replacement property in accordance with the terms of
Section 7.02 and Section 7.04, and any balance remaining after compliance with such Sections with
respect to such loss or damage shall be paid to the Company or its designee. Any amount referred
to in the preceding sentence or in clause (i) or (iii) of the second preceding paragraph that is
payable to the Company or its designee shall not be paid to the Company (or, if it has been
previously paid directly to the Company, shall not be retained by the Company) if at the time of
such payment an Event of Default or Payment Default shall have occurred and be continuing, but
shall be paid to and, subject to Section 5.06, held by the Loan Trustee as security for the
obligations of the Company under this Indenture and the Participation Agreement, and at such time
as there shall not be continuing any such Event of Default or Payment Default, such amount shall be
paid to the Company or its designee.
(e) Reports, Etc. On or before the Closing Date and annually upon renewal of the
Companys insurance coverage, the Company will furnish to the Loan Trustee and each Liquidity
Provider a report signed by a firm of independent aircraft insurance brokers appointed by the
Company (which firm may be in the regular employ of the Company), stating the opinion of such firm
that the commercial hull and liability insurance then carried and maintained on the Aircraft
complies with the terms hereof; provided that all information contained in such report
shall be Confidential Information and shall be treated by the Loan Trustee, each Liquidity Provider
and each of their affiliates and officers, directors, agents and employees in accordance with the
provisions of Section 10.16. The Company will cause such firm to agree to advise the Loan Trustee
and each Liquidity Provider in writing of any act or omission on the part of the Company of which
such firm has knowledge that might invalidate or render unenforceable, in whole or in part, any
insurance on the Aircraft. The Company will also cause such firm to advise the Loan Trustee and
each Liquidity Provider in writing as promptly as practicable after such firm acquires knowledge
that an interruption of any insurance
Indenture and Security Agreement
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
[Reg. No.]
77
carried and maintained on the Aircraft pursuant to this
Section 7.06 will occur. Such information may only be provided to other Persons in accordance with
Section 10.16.
(f) Salvage Rights. All salvage rights to the Airframe and each Engine shall remain
with the Companys insurers at all times, and any insurance policies of the Loan
Trustee insuring the Airframe or any Engine shall provide for a release to the Company of any
and all salvage rights in and to the Airframe or any Engine.
(g) Right to Pay Premium. In the event of cancellation of any insurance required to
be maintained hereunder due to the nonpayment of premiums, the Loan Trustee shall have the option,
in its sole discretion, to pay any such premium in respect to the Aircraft that is due in respect
of the coverage pursuant to this Indenture and to maintain such coverage, as the Loan Trustee may
require, until the scheduled expiry date of such insurance and, in such event, the Company shall,
upon demand, reimburse the Loan Trustee for amounts so paid by it.
(h) Insurance for Own Account. Nothing in this Section 7.06 shall limit or prohibit
(i) the Company from maintaining the policies of insurance required pursuant to this
Section 7.06 with higher limits than those specified herein or (ii) the Loan Trustee or the
Company from obtaining insurance for its own account, and at its sole expense, with respect to the
Airframe or any Engine (and any proceeds payable under such insurance shall be payable as provided
in the insurance policy relating thereto); provided that no such insurance may be obtained
which would limit or otherwise adversely affect the coverage or amounts payable under, or increase
the premiums for, any insurance required to be maintained pursuant to this Section 7.06 or any
other insurance maintained by the Company (or any Permitted Lessee) with respect to the Aircraft or
any other aircraft in the Companys (or such Permitted Lessees) fleet.
ARTICLE VIII
SUCCESSOR AND ADDITIONAL TRUSTEES
Section 8.01. Resignation or Removal; Appointment of Successor. (a) The resignation
or removal of the Loan Trustee and the appointment of a successor Loan Trustee shall become
effective only upon the successor Loan Trustees acceptance of appointment as provided in this
Section 8.01. The Loan Trustee or any successor thereto must resign if at any time it ceases to be
eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.01(c) and may resign at any time without
cause by giving at least 60 days prior written notice to the Company and each Noteholder. In
addition, either the Company (so long as no Event of Default or Payment Default shall have occurred
and be continuing) or a Majority in Interest of Noteholders (but only with the consent of the
Company so long
Indenture and Security Agreement
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
[Reg. No.]
78
as no Event of Default or Payment Default shall have occurred and be continuing),
may at any time remove the Loan Trustee without cause by an instrument in writing delivered to the
Loan Trustee and each Noteholder, and, in case of a removal by a Majority in Interest of
Noteholders, to the Company. In the case of the resignation or removal of the Loan Trustee, the
Company shall promptly appoint a successor Loan Trustee. If a
successor Loan Trustee shall not have been appointed within 60 days after such notice of
resignation or removal, the Loan Trustee, the Company or any Noteholder may apply to any court of
competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Loan Trustee to act until such time, if any, as a
successor shall have been appointed as above provided. The successor Loan Trustee so appointed by
such court shall immediately and without further act be superseded by any successor Loan Trustee
appointed as above provided.
(b) Any successor Loan Trustee, however appointed, shall execute and deliver to the
predecessor Loan Trustee and the Company an instrument accepting such appointment and assuming the
obligations of the Loan Trustee arising from and after the time of such appointment, and thereupon
such successor Loan Trustee, without further act, shall become vested with all the estates,
properties, rights, powers and duties of the predecessor Loan Trustee hereunder in the trust
hereunder applicable to it with like effect as if originally named the Loan Trustee herein; but
nevertheless upon the written request of such successor Loan Trustee, such predecessor Loan Trustee
shall execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Loan Trustee all the
estates, properties, rights and powers of such predecessor Loan Trustee, and such predecessor Loan
Trustee shall duly assign, transfer, deliver and pay over to such successor Loan Trustee all monies
or other property and all other books and records, or true, correct and complete copies thereof,
then held by such predecessor Loan Trustee hereunder.
(c) This Indenture shall at all times have a Loan Trustee, however appointed, that is a
Citizen of the United States (without the use of a voting trust) and a bank or trust company having
a combined capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000 (or a combined capital and surplus in
excess of $5,000,000 and the obligations of which, whether now in existence or hereafter incurred,
are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by a corporation organized and doing business under the
laws of the United States or any state or territory thereof or the District of Columbia and having
a combined capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000) or a corporation with a net worth of at
least $100,000,000, if there be such an institution willing, able and legally qualified to perform
the duties of the Loan Trustee hereunder upon reasonable or customary terms. If such bank, trust
company or corporation publishes reports of conditions at least annually, pursuant to law or to the
requirements of federal, state, territorial or District of Columbia supervising or examining
authority, then for the purposes of this Section 8.01(c) the combined capital and surplus of such
bank, trust company or corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set
forth in its most recent report of conditions so published. In case at any
Indenture and Security Agreement
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
[Reg. No.]
79
time the Loan Trustee
shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.01(c), the Loan
Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 8.01(a).
(d) Any corporation, bank, trust company or other financial institution into which the Loan
Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation, bank,
trust company or other financial institution resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation
to which the Loan Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation, bank, trust company or other
financial institution to which substantially all the corporate trust business of the Loan Trustee
may be transferred, shall, subject to the terms of Section 8.01(c), be a successor Loan Trustee
under this Indenture without further act.
Section 8.02. Appointment of Additional and Separate Trustees. (a) Whenever
(i) the Loan Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable in order to conform to any law of
any jurisdiction in which all or any part of the Collateral shall be situated or to make any claim
or bring any suit with respect to or in connection with the Collateral, any Operative Document or
any of the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents, (ii) the Loan Trustee
shall be advised by counsel satisfactory to it that it is necessary or prudent in the interests of
the Noteholders (and the Loan Trustee shall so advise the Company) or (iii) the Loan
Trustee shall have been requested to do so by a Majority in Interest of Noteholders, then in any
such case, the Loan Trustee and, upon the written request of the Loan Trustee, the Company, shall
execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto and such other instruments as may from time to
time be necessary or advisable either (1) to constitute one or more banks or trust
companies or corporations meeting the requirements of Section 8.01(c) and approved by the Loan
Trustee, either to act jointly with the Loan Trustee as additional trustee or trustees of all or
any part of the Collateral or to act as separate trustee or trustees of all or any part of the
Collateral, in each case with such rights, powers, duties and obligations consistent with this
Indenture as may be provided in such supplemental indenture or other instruments as the Loan
Trustee or a Majority in Interest of Noteholders may deem necessary or advisable, or (2) to
clarify, add to or subtract from the rights, powers, duties and obligations theretofore granted any
such additional or separate trustee, subject in each case to the remaining provisions of this
Section 8.02. If no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no additional or supplemental
trustee shall be appointed without the Companys consent. If the Company shall not have taken any
action requested of it under this Section 8.02(a) that is required by its terms within 15 days of a
written request from the Loan Trustee to do so, or if an Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, the Loan Trustee may act under the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.02(a)
without the concurrence of the Company, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company
hereby irrevocably appoints (which appointment is coupled with an interest) the Loan Trustee as its
agent and
Indenture and Security Agreement
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
[Reg. No.]
80
attorney-in-fact to act for it under the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.02(a).
The Loan Trustee may, in such capacity, execute, deliver and perform any such supplemental
indenture, or any such instrument, as may be required for the appointment of any such
additional or separate trustee or for the clarification of, addition to or subtraction from
the rights, powers, duties or obligations theretofore granted to any such additional or separate
trustee, subject in each case to the remaining provisions of this Section 8.02. In case any
additional or separate trustee appointed under this Section 8.02(a) shall become incapable of
acting, resign or be removed, all the assets, property, rights, powers, trusts, duties and
obligations of such additional or separate trustee shall revert to the Loan Trustee until a
successor additional or separate trustee is appointed as provided in this Section 8.02(a).
(b) No additional or separate trustee shall be entitled to exercise any of the rights, powers,
duties and obligations conferred upon the Loan Trustee in respect of the custody, investment and
payment of monies and all monies received by any such additional or separate trustee from or
constituting part of the Collateral or otherwise payable under any Operative Documents to the Loan
Trustee shall be promptly paid over by it to the Loan Trustee. All other rights, powers, duties
and obligations conferred or imposed upon any additional or separate trustee shall be exercised or
performed by the Loan Trustee and such additional or separate trustee jointly except to the extent
that applicable law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act is to be performed renders the
Loan Trustee incompetent or unqualified to perform such act, in which event such rights, powers,
duties and obligations (including the holding of title to all or part of the Collateral in any such
jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed by such additional or separate trustee. No
additional or separate trustee shall take any discretionary action except on the instructions of
the Loan Trustee or a Majority in Interest of Noteholders. No trustee hereunder shall be
personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder, except that the
Loan Trustee shall be liable for the consequences of its lack of reasonable care in selecting, and
the Loan Trustees own actions in acting with, any additional or separate trustee. Each additional
or separate trustee appointed pursuant to this Section 8.02 shall be subject to, and shall have the
benefit of Article IV, Article V, Article VI, Article VIII, Article IX and Article X hereof insofar
as they apply to the Loan Trustee. The powers of any additional or separate trustee appointed
pursuant to this Section 8.02 shall not in any case exceed those of the Loan Trustee hereunder.
(c) If at any time the Loan Trustee shall deem it no longer necessary or desirable or in the
event that the Loan Trustee shall have been requested to do so in writing by a Majority in Interest
of Noteholders, the Loan Trustee and, upon the written request of the Loan Trustee, the Company,
shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto and all other instruments and agreements
necessary or proper to remove any additional or separate trustee. The Loan Trustee may act on
behalf of the Company under this Section 8.02(c) when and to the extent it could so act under
Indenture and Security Agreement
(American Airlines 2011-2 Aircraft EETC)
[Reg. No.]

the manner set forth in Section 8.01.

TO THE PARTIES SET FORTH
IN SCHEDULE A HERETO
RE: American Airlines 2011-2A Pass Through Certificates
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We are acting as counsel to U.S. Bank Trust National Association, in its individual capacity
(U.S. Bank Trust), and as Pass Through Trustee (the Pass Through Trustee) under the Pass
Through Trust Agreement, dated as of March 21, 2002, between American Airlines, Inc. (the

Connecticut, National Association) (the Basic Agreement) as supplemented by the Trust Supplement
No. 2011-2A dated as of the date hereof, among the Company, AMR Corporation (AMR) and the Pass
Through Trustee (as supplemented, the Pass Through Trust Agreement), pursuant to which the
American Airlines Pass Through Certificates, Series 2011-2A (the Class A Pass Through
Certificates) are to be issued; in connection with the sale and purchase of the Class A Pass
Through Certificates pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement dated September 27, 2011 (the
Underwriting Agreement), among the Company, AMR and the underwriters named therein. This opinion
is delivered to you at the request of U.S. Bank Trust. Except as otherwise defined herein, terms
used herein shall have the meanings set forth in, or by reference to, the Pass Through Trust
Agreement.
As used herein, the following terms have the following meanings: The term Prospectus
Supplement means the prospectus supplement, dated September 27, 2011, relating to the Class A Pass
Through Certificates, in the form filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC)
pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the 1933 Act), including
the documents incorporated by reference therein. The term Registration Statement means the
Registration Statement of the Company on Form S-3 (Registration Nos. 333-160646 and 333-160646-01)
filed with the SEC under the 1933 Act. The term Prospectus means the base prospectus included in
the Registration Statement, as supplemented by, and together with, the Prospectus Supplement, in
the forms filed with the SEC
Page 2
pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the 1933 Act, including the documents incorporated by reference
therein.
Our representation of U.S. Bank Trust, in its individual capacity and as Pass Through Trustee,
has been as special counsel for the limited purposes stated above. As to all matters of fact
(including factual conclusions and characterizations and descriptions of purpose, intention or
other state of mind), we have relied, with your permission, entirely upon (i) the representations
and warranties of the parties set forth in the Operative Documents (as defined below) and (ii)
certificates delivered to us by the management of U.S. Bank Trust and have assumed, without
independent inquiry, the accuracy of those representations, warranties and certificates.
We have examined the Pass Through Trust Agreement and the Class A Pass Through Certificates,
and originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such other
records, documents, certificates, or other instruments as we have deemed necessary or advisable for
the purposes of this opinion.
When an opinion set forth below is given to the best of our knowledge, or to our knowledge, or
with reference to matters of which we are aware or which are known to us, or with another similar
qualification, the relevant knowledge or awareness is limited to the individual lawyers in the firm
who have participated directly and substantively in the specific transactions to which this opinion
relates, and without any special or additional investigation undertaken for the purposes of this
opinion.
Subject to the limitation set forth below, we have made such examination of law as we have
deemed necessary for the purposes of this opinion. The following opinions on behalf of U.S. Bank
Trust, in its individual capacity and as Pass Through Trustee, are limited to the laws of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the federal laws of the United States of America governing the
banking and trust powers of U.S. Bank Trust. We express no opinion with respect to federal
securities laws, including the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, and the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended or state securities or blue sky
laws. In addition, other than our opinion expressed in paragraph 1 below with respect to the
citizenship of U.S. Bank Trust, no opinion is expressed as to matters governed by any law, statute,
rule or regulation of the United States relating to the acquisition, ownership, registration, use,
operation, maintenance, repair, replacement or sale of or the nature of the Aircraft.
To the extent to which this opinion deals with matters governed by or relating to the laws of
the State of New York or other jurisdiction other than the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, we have
assumed with your permission that the Operative Documents are governed by the internal substantive
laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
Our opinion is further subject to the following exceptions, qualifications and assumptions:
Page 3
(a) We have assumed without any independent investigation that (i) each party to the Pass
Through Trust Agreement, other than U.S. Bank Trust, in its individual capacity or as Pass
Through Trustee, as applicable, at all times relevant thereto, is validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized, and is qualified
to do business and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where such
qualification is required generally or necessary in order for such party to enforce its
rights under the Pass Through Trust Agreement, and (ii) each party to the Pass Through Trust
Agreement (other than U.S. Bank Trust, in its individual capacity or as Pass Through
Trustee) at all times relevant thereto, had and has the full power, authority and legal
right under its certificate of incorporation, partnership agreement, by-laws, and other
governing organizational documents, and the applicable corporate, partnership, or other
enterprise legislation and other applicable laws, as the case may be, to execute, deliver
and to perform its obligations under the Pass Through Trust Agreement.
(b) We have assumed without any independent investigation that the Pass Through Trust
Agreement is a valid, binding and enforceable obligation of each party thereto other than
U.S. Bank Trust, in its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee, as applicable.
(c) We express no opinion as to the availability of any specific or equitable relief of any
kind.
(d) The enforcement of any of your rights may in all cases be subject to an implied duty of
good faith and fair dealing and to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such
enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity) and, as to any of your
rights to collateral security, will be subject to a duty to act in a commercially reasonable
manner.
(e) We express no opinion as to the enforceability of any particular provision of the Pass
Through Trust Agreement relating to (i) waivers of rights to object to jurisdiction or
venue, or consents to jurisdiction or venue, (ii) waivers of rights to (or methods of)
service of process, or rights to trial by jury, or other rights or benefits bestowed by
operation of law, (iii) waivers of any applicable defenses, setoffs, recoupments, or
counterclaims, (iv) the grant of powers of attorney to any person or entity, (v) exculpation
or exoneration clauses, indemnity clauses, and clauses relating to releases or waivers of
unmatured claims or rights, (vi) the imposition or collection of interest on overdue
interest or providing for a penalty rate of interest or late charges on overdue or defaulted
obligations, or the payment of any premium, liquidated damages, or other amount which may be
held by any court to be a penalty or a forfeiture, or (vii) so-called usury savings
clauses purporting to specify methods of (or otherwise assure) compliance with usury laws
or other similar laws of any jurisdiction.
(f) In addition to any other limitation by operation of law upon the scope, meaning or
purpose of this opinion, this opinion speaks only as of the date hereof. We have no
obligation to advise the recipients of this opinion (or any third party) of changes of law
or
Page 4
fact that may occur after the date hereof, even though the change may affect the legal
analysis, a legal conclusion or any information contained herein.
All opinions contained herein with respect to the enforceability of documents and
instruments are qualified to the extent that:
(a) the availability of equitable remedies, including, without limitation,
specific enforcement and injunctive relief, is subject to the discretion of the court
before which any proceedings therefor may be brought; and
(b) the enforceability of certain terms provided in the Pass Through Trust
Agreement may be limited by
(i) applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance,
arrangement, insolvency, moratorium or similar law affecting the enforcement of
creditors rights generally as at the time in effect, and
(ii) general principles of equity and the discretion of a court in
granting equitable remedies (whether enforceability is considered in a
proceeding at law or in equity).
This opinion is rendered solely for the benefit of those institutions listed on Schedule A
hereto and their successors and assigns in connection with the transactions contemplated by the
Underwriting Agreement and the Pass Through Trust Agreement and may not be used or relied upon by
any other person or for any other purpose.
Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the assumptions, exceptions and qualifications set
forth herein, we are of the opinion that:
1. |
|
U.S. Bank Trust is a national banking association validly existing and authorized to operate
as a national banking association under the laws of the United States of America, is a
citizen of the United States within the meaning of Section 40102(a)(15) of Title 49 of the
United States Code and, in its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee, as the case may
be, has the requisite corporate and trust power and authority to execute, deliver and perform
its obligations under the Operative Documents, and U.S. Bank Trust, in its capacity as Pass
Through Trustee, has the requisite corporate and trust power and authority to issue, execute,
deliver and authenticate the Class A Pass Through Certificates to be delivered on the date
hereof. |
2. |
|
U.S. Bank Trust, in its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee, as the case may be,
has duly authorized the Pass Through Trust Agreement and has duly executed and delivered the
Pass Through Trust Agreement, and the Pass Through Trust Agreement constitutes the valid and
binding obligation of U.S. Bank Trust, in its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee,
as the case may be, enforceable against U.S. Bank Trust, in
|
Page 5
|
|
its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee, as the case may be, in accordance with
its terms. |
3. |
|
The Class A Pass Through Certificates issued and dated on the date hereof have been duly
authorized and validly executed, issued, authenticated and delivered by U.S. Bank Trust as
Pass Through Trustee pursuant to the terms of the Pass Through Trust Agreement and are valid
and binding obligations of the Pass Through Trustee, enforceable against the Pass Through
Trustee in accordance with their terms, and the holders of the Class A Pass Through
Certificates are entitled to the benefits of the Pass Through Trust Agreement. |
4. |
|
The authorization, execution, delivery and performance by U.S. Bank Trust, in its individual
capacity or as Pass Through Trustee, as the case may be, of the Pass Through Trust Agreement
and the consummation of the transactions therein contemplated and compliance with the terms
thereof and the issuance of the Class A Pass Through Certificates thereunder do not and will
not result in the violation of the provisions of the charter documents or by-laws of U.S. Bank
Trust and, to the best of our knowledge, do not conflict with, or result in a breach of any
terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or the
imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of U.S. Bank Trust
in its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee, under any indenture, mortgage or other
agreement or instrument, in each case known to us, to which U.S. Bank Trust in its individual
capacity or as Pass Through Trustee, is a party or by which it or any of its properties is
bound, or violate any applicable Massachusetts or federal law, rule or regulation governing
U.S. Bank Trusts banking or trust powers, or, to the best of our knowledge, of any judgment,
license, registration, permit, order or decree, in each case known to us, applicable to U.S.
Bank Trust in its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee, of any court, regulatory
body, administrative agency, government or governmental body having jurisdiction over U.S.
Bank Trust in its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee. |
5. |
|
No authorization, approval, consent, license or order of, giving of notice to, registration
with, or taking of any other action in respect of, any federal or Massachusetts state
governmental authority or agency pursuant to any federal or Massachusetts law governing the
banking or trust powers of U.S. Bank Trust is required for the authorization, execution,
delivery and performance by U.S. Bank Trust, in its individual capacity or as Pass Through
Trustee, as the case may be, of the Pass Through Trust Agreement or the consummation of any of
the transactions by U.S. Bank Trust, in its individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee, as
the case may be, contemplated thereby or the issuance of the Class A Pass Through Certificates
under the Pass Through Trust Agreement (except as shall have been duly obtained, given or
taken); and such authorization, execution, delivery, performance, consummation and issuance do
not conflict with or result in a breach of the provisions of any such law. |
6. |
|
To our knowledge, but without having investigated any governmental records or court dockets,
and without having made any other independent investigation, there are no proceedings pending
or overtly threatened in writing against or affecting U.S. Bank Trust |
Page 6
|
|
in any court or before any governmental authority, agency, arbitration board or tribunal
which, if adversely determined, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be
expected to affect materially and adversely the trust established under the Pass Through
Trust Agreement or affect the right, power and authority of U.S. Bank Trust, in its
individual capacity or as Pass Through Trustee, as the case may be, to enter into or perform
its obligations under the Pass Through Trust Agreement or to issue the Class A Pass Through
Certificates. |
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to each of the Companys and
AMRs Current Report on Form 8-K filed on the date hereof and incorporated by reference in the

Re: American Airlines, Inc. 2011-2A Pass Through Trust
Pass Through Certificates, Series 2011-2A |
Ladies and Gentlemen:
I am Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Chief Compliance Officer of AMR Corporation, a
Delaware corporation (the Guarantor), and American Airlines, Inc., a Delaware corporation
and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Guarantor (the Company), and have acted as such in
connection with the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration Nos. 333-160646-01 and
333-160646) (the Registration Statement) and in connection with the issuance and sale by
the Company today of $[767,411,000] face amount of Pass Through Certificates, Series 2011-2A (the
Class A Certificates) to Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc.,
Goldman, Sachs & Co., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as
representatives of the several underwriters named in Schedule I (collectively, the
Underwriters) to the Underwriting Agreement, dated as of September 27, 2011 (the
Underwriting Agreement), among the Company, the Guarantor and the Underwriters, and the
issuance by the Guarantor of the related guarantee of the payment obligations under the equipment
notes issued by the Company underlying the Class A Certificates (the Guarantee) pursuant
to the Guarantee dated as of October 4, 2011. The Class A Certificates will be issued under the
Pass Through Trust Agreement, dated as of March 21, 2002 (the Basic Agreement), between
the Company and U.S. Bank Trust National Association (as successor to State Street Bank and Trust
Company of Connecticut, National Association), as pass through trustee for the trust relating to
the Class A Certificates (the Class A Trustee), as supplemented by the Trust Supplement
2011-2A, dated as of October 4, 2011 (the Class A Trust Supplement), among the Company,
the Guarantor and the Class A Trustee (the Basic Agreement, together with the Class A Trust
Supplement, the Class A Trust Agreement).
As used herein, the following terms have the following meanings: the term Prospectus
Supplement means the prospectus supplement, dated September 27, 2011, relating to the Class A
Certificates, in the form filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the
Commission) pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
1933 Act), including the documents incorporated by reference therein, and the term
Prospectus means the base prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as
supplemented by, and together with, the Prospectus Supplement, in the forms filed with the
Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the 1933 Act, including the documents incorporated by
reference therein.
In so acting, I or attorneys under my supervision have examined the Registration Statement,
the Class A Trust Agreement, the Guarantee, the Underwriting Agreement and the Prospectus, and have
also examined and relied upon the representations and warranties as to factual matters contained
therein or made pursuant thereto and upon the originals, or copies certified or otherwise
identified to our satisfaction, of such records, documents and other instruments as in our judgment
are necessary or appropriate to enable me to render the opinion expressed below. In such
examination, I or such attorneys have assumed the genuineness of all signatures (other than those
on behalf of the Company or the Guarantor), the authenticity of all documents submitted as
originals, and the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted as copies.
Based on the foregoing and subject to the assumptions and qualifications set forth below, I am
of the following opinion:
1. Each of the Company and the Guarantor has been duly incorporated and is validly
existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.
2. Each of the Company and the Guarantor has the corporate power and authority under
Delaware law to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Class A Trust
Agreement.
3. The Guarantor has the corporate power and authority under Delaware law to execute,
deliver and perform its obligations under the Guarantee.
4. The Class A Trust Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the
Company and the Guarantor, and is a valid and binding obligation of the Company and the
Guarantor, enforceable against the Company and the Guarantor in accordance with its terms.
5. The Guarantee has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Guarantor,
and is a valid and binding obligation of the Guarantor, enforceable against the Guarantor
in accordance with its terms.
My opinions set forth in paragraphs 4 and 5 above are subject to: (i) applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting
the rights of creditors generally; (ii) general principles of equity (whether
considered in
a proceeding at law or in equity); (iii) an implied covenant of good faith, reasonableness
and fair dealing, and standards of materiality; (iv) in the case of indemnity, contribution
and exculpatory provisions, public policy considerations; and (v) applicable laws that may
affect the remedies provided in the Class A Trust Agreement or the Guarantee, which laws, however,
do not in my opinion make the remedies provided in the Class A Trust Agreement or the Guarantee
inadequate for the practical realization of the rights and benefits provided thereby. Without
limiting the foregoing, I express no opinion as to the validity, binding effect or enforceability
of (x) any provision of the Class A Trust Agreement or the Guarantee that purports to
waive, release or vary any statutory right of any party or any duties owing to any party to the
extent that such waiver, release or variation may be limited by Section 1-102(3) of the Uniform
Commercial Code (as in effect in any applicable jurisdiction), or (y) any provision of the
Class A Trust Agreement or the Guarantee that purports to provide that the terms thereof may not be
waived or modified except in writing, or that any prohibited or unenforceable provision thereof may
be severed without invalidating the remaining provisions thereof. In addition, the enforceability
of the provisions in the Class A Trust Agreement, to the effect that certain determinations made by
one party shall have conclusive effect may be limited under certain circumstances.
In rendering the opinions above, I have assumed that each party to the Class A Trust Agreement
or the Guarantee (other than the Company and the Guarantor), (i) is duly formed, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its incorporation or formation;
(ii) has the power and authority to carry on its business and to enter into the Class A
Trust Agreement or the Guarantee and to perform its obligations thereunder, (iii) has duly
and validly authorized the execution and delivery of the Class A Trust Agreement or the Guarantee
by all necessary action, and (iv) has duly and validly executed and delivered the Class A
Trust Agreement or the Guarantee. I have assumed that the Class A Trust Agreement and the
Guarantee constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of each party thereto (other than the
Company and the Guarantor), enforceable against such party in accordance with its terms. In
rendering the opinion set forth in paragraph 4 above, I have relied on the opinion of Shipman &
Goodwin LLP, special counsel to the Class A Trustee. In so relying on such opinion, I have made no
investigation of law or fact as to the matters stated in such opinion, and I have made the same
assumptions, and my opinion is subject to the same qualifications and limitations, as are therein
set forth.
I express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the States of
Texas and New York, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the federal laws of
the United States of America, except that I express no opinion
with respect to the antitrust, bankruptcy, environmental, securities or tax laws of any
jurisdiction.
This opinion letter is limited to the matters stated, and no opinion is implied or may be
inferred beyond those opinions expressly stated herein. The opinions expressed herein are rendered
only as of the date hereof, and I assume no responsibility to advise you of changes in law, facts,
circumstances, events or developments which hereafter may be brought to my attention and which may
alter, affect or modify such opinions. In connection with the issuance of the Class A Certificates
and the Guarantee, Debevoise & Plimpton LLP may receive a copy of this letter and rely on the
opinions set forth herein.
I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to each of the Companys and the
Guarantors Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on the date hereof and
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, and the reference to my name under the
caption Validity of the Certificates in the Prospectus. In giving such consent, I do not thereby
concede that I am within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the
1933 Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.
