Underwriters named in
Schedule I hereto

(the “Representative”)

c/o Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated

New York, New York 10036

Ladies and Gentlemen:

JetBlue Airways Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), proposes that Wilmington Trust Company, a Delaware banking corporation, as pass through trustee (the “Trustee”) under the Class G-1 Trust, Class G-2 Trust and the Class C Trust (each as defined below), issue and sell to the several underwriters named in Schedule I hereto its pass through certificates in the aggregate face amounts and with the interest rates and final expected distribution dates set forth on Schedule II hereto (the “Offered Certificates”) on the terms and conditions stated herein.

The Offered Certificates will be issued pursuant to three separate pass through trust agreements, each dated as of November 15, 2004, between the Company and the Trustee (the “Original Pass Through Trust Agreements”). The Original Pass Through Trust Agreements relate to the JetBlue Airways Corporation Pass Through Trust, Series 2004-2G-1-O (the “Class G-1 Trust”), the JetBlue Airways Corporation Pass Through Trust, Series 2004-2G-2-O (the “Class G-2 Trust”) and the JetBlue Airways Corporation Pass Through Trust, Series 2004-2C-O (the “Class C Trust” and together with the Class G-1 Trust and the Class G-2 Trust, the “Original Trusts”).

The cash proceeds of the offering of Offered Certificates by each Original Trust will be paid to Wilmington Trust Company, as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”), under separate Escrow and Paying Agent Agreements relating to each Original Trust among the Escrow Agent, the Underwriters, the relevant Trustee and Wilmington Trust Company, as paying agent (the “Paying Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of Offered Certificates issued by such Original Trust (each, an “Escrow Agreement”). The Escrow Agent will deposit such cash proceeds (each, a “Deposit”) with HSH Nordbank, acting through its New York branch (the “Depositary”), in accordance with a Deposit Agreement relating to the respective Original Trust (the “Deposit Agreement”), and will withdraw Deposits upon request to allow the Trustee to purchase Equipment Notes (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement referred to herein) from time to time pursuant to a Note Purchase Agreement to be dated as of the Issuance Date (the

“Note Purchase Agreement”) among the Company, the Trustee of each of the Original Trusts and Wilmington Trust Company, as Subordination Agent (as hereinafter defined) and as Paying Agent and the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent will issue receipts to be attached to each related Offered Certificate (“Escrow Receipts”) representing each holder’s fractional undivided interest in amounts deposited with the Escrow Agent and will pay to such holders through the related Paying Agent interest accrued on the Deposits and received by such Paying Agent pursuant to the related Deposit Agreement at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to the corresponding Offered Certificates.

On the earlier (the “Trust Transfer Date”) of (i) the first Business Day after February 28, 2006, or if later, the fifth Business Day after the Delivery Period Termination Date (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement) and (ii) the fifth Business Day after the occurrence of a Triggering Event (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), each of the Original Trusts will transfer and assign all of its assets and rights to a newly-created successor trust with substantially identical terms except as described in the Prospectus Supplement (as hereinafter defined) (each, a “Successor Trust”) governed by three separate pass through trust agreements, each to be dated as of the Issuance Date, between the Company and the Trustee, with respect to each series of Offered Certificates (each, a “Successor Pass Through Trust Agreement”). Each Offered Certificate outstanding on the Trust Transfer Date will represent the same interest in the relevant Successor Trust as such Offered Certificate represented in the relevant Original Trust. Wilmington Trust Company initially will also act as trustee of the Successor Trusts. As used herein, the terms “Trust” and “Pass Through Trust Agreement” shall mean “Original Trust” and “Original Pass Through Trust Agreement”, respectively; and on or after the Trust Transfer Date, such terms shall mean “Successor Trust” and “Successor Pass Through Trust Agreement”, respectively.

Certain amounts of interest payable on the Offered Certificates issued by each Trust will be entitled to the benefits of separate primary liquidity facilities and separate above-cap liquidity facilities. Landesbank Baden-Württemberg (the “Primary Liquidity Provider”) will enter into a separate revolving credit agreement with respect to each Trust (each, a “Primary Liquidity Facility”), to be dated as of the Issuance Date for the benefit of the holders of the Offered Certificates issued by such Trust. Citibank N.A. (the “Above-Cap Liquidity Provider”) will enter into a separate interest rate cap agreement with respect to each Trust (each, an “Above-Cap Liquidity Facility”), each to be dated as of the Issuance Date for the benefit of the holders of the Offered Certificates issued by such Trust.

The Primary Liquidity Provider, the Above-Cap Liquidity Provider, MBIA Insurance Corporation, as provider of the Policies referred to below (in such capacity, the “Policy Provider”), and the holders of the Offered Certificates will be entitled to the benefits, and subject to the terms, of an Intercreditor Agreement to be dated as of the Issuance Date (the “Intercreditor Agreement”) among the Trustee, Wilmington Trust Company, as subordination agent and trustee thereunder (the “Subordination Agent”), the Primary Liquidity Provider, the Above-Cap Liquidity Provider and the Policy Provider.

Payments of interest on the Offered Certificates issued by each of the Class G-1 Trust and the Class G-2 Trust will be supported by a financial guaranty insurance policy (each, a “Policy” and collectively, the “Policies”) issued by the Policy Provider to the extent the Primary

2

Liquidity Facilities and the Above-Cap Liquidity Facilities for such Offered Certificates and any funds contained in the related cash collateral accounts are not available for that purpose. Each Policy will also support the payment of the outstanding balance of the Offered Certificates issued by the Class G-1 Trust or the Class G-2 Trust, as applicable, on the respective final legal distribution date for such Offered Certificate and under certain other circumstances described in the Intercreditor Agreement and the Policies. The Policies will be issued pursuant to an insurance and indemnity agreement dated as of the Issuance Date (the “Policy Provider Agreement”) among the Policy Provider, the Company, the Trustees for the Class G-1 Trust and the Class G-2 Trust and the Subordination Agent.

As used herein, unless the context otherwise requires, the term “Underwriters” shall mean the firms named as Underwriters in Schedule I, and the term “you” shall mean Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated (“Morgan Stanley”).

Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings specified therefor in the Pass Through Trust Agreements, the Note Purchase Agreement or the Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable; provided that, as used in this Agreement, the term “Operative Documents” shall mean the Deposit Agreements, the Escrow Agreements, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Primary Liquidity Facilities, the Above-Cap Liquidity Facilities, the Policies, the Policy Provider Agreement, the Indemnification Agreement dated the date hereof (the “Indemnification Agreement”) among the Company, the Policy Provider and the Underwriters, the Pass Through Trust Agreements, the Note Purchase Agreement, the Fee Letter, the Policy Fee Letter, the Participation Agreements, the Indentures, the Assignment and Assumption Agreements and the Equipment Notes.

If any of the conditions specified in this Section 5 shall not have been fulfilled when and as required by this Agreement to be fulfilled, this Agreement may be terminated by you on notice to the Company at any time prior to the Issuance Date and such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party, except as provided in Section 6. Notwithstanding any such termination, the provisions of Section 7 shall remain in effect.

# 6. Covenants of the Company. In further consideration of the agreements of the Underwriters herein contained, the Company covenants with each Underwriter as follows:

## (a) To furnish to you, without charge, five signed copies of the Registration Statements (including exhibits thereto) and for delivery to each other Underwriter a conformed copy of the Registration Statements (each without exhibits thereto) and to furnish to you in New York City, without charge, prior to 4:00 p.m. New York City time on the business day next succeeding the date of this Agreement and during the period mentioned in Section 6(c) below, as many copies of the Prospectus and any supplements and amendments thereto or to the Registration Statements as you may reasonably request.

##

## (b) Immediately following the execution of this Agreement, the Company will prepare a Prospectus Supplement that complies with the Securities Act and which sets forth the face amount of the Offered Certificates and their terms not otherwise specified in the base prospectus relating to all offerings of pass through certificates under the Registration Statements, the name of each Underwriter participating in the offering and the face amount of the Offered Certificates that each such Underwriter severally has agreed to purchase, the name of each Underwriter, if any, acting as representative of the Underwriters in connection with the offering, the price at which the Offered Certificates are to be purchased by the Underwriters from the Trustee, any initial public offering price, any selling concession and reallowance, and such other information as you and the Company deem appropriate in connection with the offering of the Offered Certificates. The Company will promptly transmit copies of the Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus to the Commission for filing pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act.

##

## (c) During the period when a prospectus relating to the Offered 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 Statements, (ii) the transmittal to the Commission for filing of any supplement to the Prospectus or any document that would as a result thereof be incorporated by reference in the Prospectus, (iii) any request by the Commission for any amendment of the Registration Statements or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or for any additional information relating thereto or to any document incorporated by reference therein, (iv) the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statements or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose, and (v) the

14

## receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Offered Certificates for sale in any jurisdiction or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose. The Company will use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order or suspension and, if issued, to obtain as soon as possible the withdrawal thereof.

##

## (d) If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Offered Certificates is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, any event occurs as a result of which the 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 Prospectus to comply with the Securities Act, the Company promptly will prepare and file with the Commission, subject to paragraph (e) of this Section 6, an amendment or supplement which will correct such statement or omission or an amendment or supplement which will effect such compliance. 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 5.

##

## (e) At any time when a prospectus relating to the Offered Certificates is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, the Company will give you notice of its intention to file any amendment to the Registration Statements or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus, whether pursuant to the Exchange Act, the Securities Act or otherwise, will furnish you with copies of any such amendment or supplement proposed to be filed within a reasonable time in advance of filing, and will not file any such amendment or supplement in a form to which you shall reasonably object.

##

## (f) The Company has furnished or will furnish to you and your counsel, without charge, conformed copies of the Registration Statements as originally filed and of all amendments thereto, whether filed before or after such Registration Statements originally became effective (including exhibits thereto and the documents incorporated therein by reference) and, so long as delivery of a prospectus by an underwriter or dealer may be required by the Securities Act, as many copies of each preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus and any amendments thereof and supplements thereto as you may reasonably request.

##

## (g) The Company will take such actions as you may request to qualify the Offered Certificates for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions as you may reasonably request and will maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution of such Offered Certificates. The Company, however, shall not be obligated to qualify as a foreign corporation or file any general consent to service of process under the laws of any such jurisdiction or subject itself to taxation as doing business in any such jurisdiction.

##

## (h) During the period when a prospectus relating to the Offered Certificates is required to be delivered under the Securities Act and the Securities Act Regulations, the Company will file promptly all documents required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 14 of the Exchange Act.

15

## (i) The Company will make generally available to its security holders, in each case as soon as practicable, but not later than 45 days after the close of the period covered thereby (90 days in case the period covered corresponds to a fiscal year of the Company), earnings statements of the Company, which will comply as to form with the provisions of Rule 158 under the Securities Act.

##

## (j) Between the date of this Agreement and the Issuance Date, 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 Offered 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.

##

(k) Whether or not the transactions contemplated in this Agreement are consummated or this Agreement is terminated, the Company will pay or cause to be paid all expenses incident to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, including: (i) the fees, disbursements and expenses of the Company’s counsel and the Company’s accountants in connection with the registration and delivery of the Offered Certificates under the Securities Act and all other fees or expenses in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statements, any preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus and amendments and supplements to any of the foregoing, including all printing costs associated therewith, and the mailing and delivering of copies thereof to the Underwriters and dealers, in the quantities herein above specified, (ii) all costs and expenses related to the transfer and delivery of the Offered Certificates to the Underwriters, including any transfer or other taxes payable thereon, (iii) the printing or processing and distribution of this Agreement, the Offered Certificates, the Operative Documents, the Underwriters’ Questionnaire, any Blue Sky or legal investment memorandum in connection with the offer and sale of the Offered Certificates under state law and all expenses in connection with the qualification of the Offered Certificates for offer and sale under state law as provided in Section 6(g), including filing fees and the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Underwriters in connection with such qualification and in connection with the Blue Sky or legal investment memorandum, (iv) the fees and expenses of the Trustee, the Loan Trustees, the Subordination Agent, the Primary Liquidity Provider, the Above-Cap Liquidity Provider, the Depositary, the Escrow Agent, the Paying Agent, and the Policy Provider, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of their respective counsel, in connection with the Offered Certificates and the Operative Documents, (v) all filing fees and the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Underwriters incurred in connection with the review and qualification of the offering of the Offered Certificates by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., (vi) any fees charged by rating agencies for rating the Offered Certificates (including annual surveillance fees related to the Offered Certificates as long as they are outstanding), (vii) all fees and expenses relating to appraisals of the Aircraft, (viii) the costs and expenses of the Company relating to investor presentations on any “road show” undertaken in connection with the marketing of the offering of the Offered Certificates, including, without limitation, expenses associated with the production of

16

road show slides and graphics, fees and expenses of any consultants engaged in connection with the road show presentations with the prior approval of the Company, travel and lodging expenses of the representatives and officers of the Company and any such consultants, and such proportion of the cost of any aircraft chartered in connection with the road show as shall be agreed upon separately by the Company and the Representative (it being understood that the Underwriters shall be responsible for paying travel and lodging expenses of the Representative and such proportion of the cost of any aircraft chartered in connection with the road show and any ground transportation used by the Representative in connection with the road show as shall be so separately agreed upon), and (ix) all other costs and expenses incident to the performance of the obligations of the Company hereunder for which provision is not otherwise made in this Section. The reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Underwriters will be paid as shall be agreed upon separately by the Company and the Representative. It is understood, however, that except as provided in this Section, Section 7 and the last paragraph of Section 9 below, the Underwriters will pay all of their costs and expenses and any advertising expenses connected with any offers they may make.

# 7. Indemnity and Contribution. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and each affiliate of any Underwriter within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statements or any amendment thereof, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto), or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission (x) based upon information relating to any Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by such Underwriter through you expressly for use therein, (y) in the Policy Provider Information or (z) in that part of the Registration Statements which shall constitute the Statement of Eligibility of the Trustee under the Trust Indenture Act on Form T-1; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Underwriter from whom the person asserting any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities purchased Offered Certificates, or any person controlling such Underwriter, if a copy of the Prospectus (as then amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) was not sent or given by or on behalf of such Underwriter to such person, if required by law so to have been delivered, at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of the Offered Certificates to such person, and if the Prospectus (as so amended or supplemented) would have cured the defect giving rise to such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, unless such failure is the result of noncompliance by the Company with Section 6(a) hereof.

17

## (b) Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, its officers who sign the Registration Statements and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to such Underwriter, but only with reference to information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by such Underwriter through you expressly for use in the Registration Statements, any preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto.

##

## (c) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 7(a) or 7(b), such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing and the indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all such indemnified parties and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Such firm shall be designated in writing by Morgan Stanley in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 7(a), and by the Company, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 7(b). The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second and third sentences of this paragraph, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of 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 includes an unconditional

18

## release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

##

## (d) To the extent the indemnification provided for in Section 7(a) or 7(b) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand from the offering of the Offered Certificates or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause 7(d)(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause 7(d)(i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Offered Certificates shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the offering of the Offered Certificates (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the Prospectus, bear to the aggregate face amount of the Offered Certificates. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Underwriters’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 7 are several in proportion to the respective face amount of Offered Certificates they have purchased hereunder, and not joint.

##

## (e) The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 7(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Offered Certificates underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of 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

19

## entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in this Section 7 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

##

## (f) The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 7 and the representations, warranties and other statements of the Company contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, any person controlling any Underwriter or any affiliate of any Underwriter or by or on behalf of the Company, its officers or directors or any person controlling the Company and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Offered Certificates.

##

8. Termination. The Underwriters may terminate this Agreement by notice given by you to the Company, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Issuance Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on, or by, as the case may be, any of the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange or The Nasdaq National Market, (ii) trading of any securities of the Company shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market, (iii) a material disruption in securities settlement, payment or clearance services in the United States shall have occurred, (iv) any moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by either Federal or New York State authorities or (v) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis that, in the judgment of Morgan Stanley, on behalf of the Underwriters, is material and adverse and which singly or together with any other such event specified in this clause (v), makes it, in the judgment of Morgan Stanley, on behalf of the Underwriters, impracticable to proceed with the offer, sale or delivery of the Offered Certificates on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus.

9. Effectiveness; Defaulting Underwriters. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto.

If, on the Issuance Date any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Offered Certificates that it has or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate face amount of Offered Certificates which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more than one-tenth of the aggregate face amount of the Offered Certificates to be purchased on such date, the other Underwriters shall be obligated severally in the proportions that the face amount of Offered Certificates set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule I bears to the aggregate face amount of Offered Certificates set forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Underwriters, or in such other proportions as you may specify, to purchase the Offered Certificates which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date; provided that in no event shall the aggregate face amount of Offered Certificates that any Underwriter has agreed to purchase pursuant to this Agreement be increased pursuant to this Section 9 by an amount in excess of one-ninth of such aggregate face amount of Offered Certificates without the written consent of such Underwriter. If, on the Issuance Date, any Underwriter or Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Offered Certificates and the aggregate face amount of Offered Certificates with respect to which such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate

20

face amount of Offered Certificates to be purchased, and arrangements satisfactory to you and the Company for the purchase of such Offered Certificates are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company. In any such case either you or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Issuance Date, but in no event for longer than seven days, in order that the required changes, if any, in the Registration Statements and in the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Any action taken under this paragraph shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.

If this Agreement shall be terminated by the Underwriters, or any of them, because of any failure or refusal on the part of the Company to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, or if for any reason the Company shall be unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Company will reimburse the Underwriters or such Underwriters as have so terminated this Agreement with respect to themselves, severally, for all out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of their counsel) reasonably incurred by such Underwriters in connection with this Agreement or the offering contemplated hereunder.

# 10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.

# 11. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York.

# 12. Headings. The headings of the sections of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed a part of this Agreement.
