W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in Annex A hereto;

WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, the Company owns the business jet aircraft listed in Schedule I hereto;

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Participation Agreement and the Indenture, the Company has issued the Series A Equipment Notes to finance the Aircraft;

WHEREAS, the Company wishes to issue Series B Equipment Notes in respect of the Aircraft, and pursuant to this Agreement, the Class B-1 Trust wishes to purchase such Series B Equipment Notes, on the terms and conditions set forth herein;

WHEREAS, pursuant to declaration of trust dated May 13, 2026, the Company has caused the formation of the Class B-1 Trust, to facilitate certain of the transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, the issuance of a loan (the “Loan”) to provide financing, among other things, for the purchase by the Class B-1 Trust of the Series B Equipment Notes to be issued in respect of, and secured by a security interest in, each of the Aircraft;

WHEREAS, the Company has caused the Class B-1 Trust to enter into the Class B Loan Agreement, dated as of May 21, 2026 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with its terms, the “Loan Agreement”) with the lenders named therein, or otherwise a party thereto from time to time (each, a “Lender” and collectively, the “Lenders”), pursuant to which the Class B-1 Trust, as borrower, will borrow the Loan from the Initial Lender;

WHEREAS, (a) on the Scheduled Closing Date for the Initial Aircraft (or such later date as provided herein), subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the parties thereto will enter into the Participation Agreement Amendment and the Indenture Amendment, and the Company will issue the Series B Equipment Notes relating to the Initial Aircraft, and (b) on each Scheduled Closing Date for an Aircraft that is not an Initial Aircraft (or such later date as provided herein), subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the parties thereto will enter into the Indenture Supplement and the Participation Agreement Supplement in respect of the Aircraft specified in the relevant Closing Notice, and the Company will issue the Equipment Notes relating to such Aircraft; and

[Note Purchase Agreement]

WHEREAS, in order to effect the financing of each Aircraft, the Class B-1 Trust will fund its purchase of Equipment Notes with the proceeds of the Loan pursuant to the Loan Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Section 1. Financing of Aircraft. (a) The Company confirms that it currently owns the Initial Aircraft. The Company may finance the Initial Aircraft (and any other Eligible Aircraft) from time to time in the manner provided herein, all on and subject to the terms and conditions hereof and of the Operative Agreements. On the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Class B-1 Trust commits to purchase during the Availability Period the Series B-1 Equipment Notes, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding up to the Maximum Facility Amount (the “Commitment”); provided that, with respect to any Aircraft other than the Initial Aircraft, the Commitment shall be limited to the Class B Escrow Balance and the Lenders shall have no obligation to extend any Loans under the Loan Agreement in respect of any Aircraft other than the Initial Aircraft. The Subordination Agent on behalf of the Class B-1 Trust agrees to purchase, during the Availability Period, at a purchase price of 100% of the principal amount thereof, the Series B-1 Equipment Notes in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding up to the amount of the Commitment in effect from time to time. For avoidance of doubt, any principal amount of a Series B-1 Equipment Note that has been redeemed during the Availability Period and deposited in the Escrow Account shall be deemed to constitute an unused portion of the Commitment and shall be available to be reborrowed by the Company pursuant to this Agreement (by way of issuance of further Series B-1 Equipment Notes, including additional or amended Series B-1 Equipment Notes in respect of any Aircraft previously financed hereunder) during the Availability Period.

(b)          In furtherance of the foregoing and in connection with the issuance of any Series B-1 Equipment Note for any Aircraft hereunder, the Company shall give the parties hereto notice substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (a “Closing Notice”) of the Scheduled Closing Date for such Aircraft no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least three Business Days prior to such Scheduled Closing Date (or, if Section 1(e) applies, a Business Day thereafter and before the Cut-off Date for such Aircraft), which notice shall:

(i)            specify the expected Closing Date of such Aircraft;

(ii)           identify the Eligible Aircraft to be financed;

(iii)          instruct the Class B-1 Trust to enter into (A) in the case of the Initial Aircraft the Participation Agreement Amendment and (B) in the case of each other Aircraft, a Participation Agreement Supplement with respect to such Aircraft, in each case in such form and at such a time on or before the expected Closing Date specified in such Closing Notice and to perform its obligations under the Participation Agreement with respect to such Aircraft; and

2

[Note Purchase Agreement]

(iv)          specify the aggregate principal amount of Series B-1 Equipment Notes, if any, to be issued, and purchased by the Class B-1 Trust, in connection with the financing of such Aircraft scheduled on such expected Closing Date (which shall be in substantially the forms attached to the Indenture and include the Required Terms, subject to Section 1(c) below).

(c)           Upon receipt of a Closing Notice, the Class B-1 Trust shall, and shall cause the Subordination Agent to, enter into the Participation Agreement Amendment or the relevant Participation Agreement Supplement, as the case may be, and perform its obligations under the Participation Agreement in respect of the Aircraft specified in such Closing Notice, provided that the Participation Agreement Amendment or relevant Participation Agreement Supplement, as applicable, Indenture Supplement and Equipment Notes shall be substantially in the forms thereof annexed hereto in all respects and, if modified in any material respect, the consent of the relevant Lenders (as specified in the Loan Agreement) shall have been obtained by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indenture and any Indenture Supplement may be modified to the extent required for the issuance of Equipment Notes subject to the terms of Section 9.1(c) or 9.1(d) of the Intercreditor Agreement, whichever may be applicable. With respect to each Aircraft, on the Closing Date therefor, WTNA (or such other person that meets the eligibility requirements to act as loan trustee under the Indenture) shall execute as Loan Trustee the Participation Agreement Amendment or relevant Participation Agreement Supplement, as the case may be, and Equipment Notes relating to such Aircraft, and the Company shall concurrently therewith execute such Participation Agreement Amendment or Participation Agreement Supplement, as the case may be, and Equipment Notes and perform its respective obligations thereunder.

(d)          The Company agrees that all Equipment Notes issued pursuant to the Indenture shall initially be registered in the name of the Subordination Agent on behalf of (i) the Class A-1 Trust with respect to Series A-1 Equipment Notes issued under the Class A Note Purchase Agreement or (ii) the Class B-1 Trust with respect to Series B-1 Equipment Notes issued under this Agreement.

(e)          If the financing of any Initial Aircraft on the Scheduled Closing Date therefor (the “Delayed Aircraft”) in the manner contemplated hereby shall not be consummated for any reason on such Scheduled Closing Date, the unapplied funds advanced by the Lenders under the Loan Agreement intended to fund the purchase of the Series B-1 Equipment Notes relating to such Delayed Aircraft, shall, pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) of the Loan Agreement, be held in a separate account with WTNA for the benefit of such Lenders with respect to such Equipment Notes until the earlier of (x) the application of such funds to purchase the relevant Series B-1 Equipment Notes with respect to such Delayed Aircraft and (y) the date that is 5 Business Days after the Scheduled Closing Date with respect to such Delayed Aircraft (or such earlier Business Day as specified by the Company on a least one Business Day’s prior written notice; such 5th or earlier Business Day, the “Prefunding Expiry Date”); provided that if the Series B-1 Equipment Notes relating to such Delayed Aircraft have not been purchased prior to the applicable Prefunding Expiry Date (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may be the Cut-off Date), such unapplied funds shall be paid as provided in the Loan Agreement. The Company agrees to pay the Class B-1 Trust, for the account of the Lenders, a commitment fee (but, other than as set forth in the following sentence, without make-whole, pre-payment or other cost, fee or penalty) equal to the interest that would have accrued on the appliable Series B-1 Equipment Notes with respect to each Delayed Aircraft from and including such original Scheduled Closing Date to but excluding the earlier of the date in clause (x) or (y) of this Section 1(e) as though such prefunded amounts were used by the Class B-1 Trust to acquire the applicable Series B-1 Equipment Notes with respect to such Delayed Aircraft on such original Scheduled Closing Date, which commitment fee shall be due and payable, in the case of clause (x), on the first Payment Date (as defined in the Indenture) thereafter or, in the case of clause (y), not more than three Business Days following the Prefunding Expiry Date. For avoidance of doubt, in the case of clause (y) above, the Company may schedule a new Scheduled Closing Date for such Aircraft by giving a new Closing Notice with respect thereto at any time, and the provisions of this Section 1 shall be applicable to such new Scheduled Closing Date.

3

[Note Purchase Agreement]

(f)           The Company shall have no liability for the failure of the Class B-1 Trust to purchase Equipment Notes with respect to any Aircraft.

(g)Termination or Reduction of Commitment.

(i)             Prior to the initial Closing, the Commitment is subject to voluntary reduction or termination by the Company upon three Business Days’ prior written notice to the Class B-1 Trust and the Subordination Agent, provided any such reduction is in a minimum amount of $100,000 (or if less, the total amount of the unused Commitment). The Commitment once terminated may not be reinstated.

(ii)           The aggregate amount of the Commitment shall automatically without further action by any Person be reduced to zero on the Commitment Termination Date.

(iii)          Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Operative Agreement to the contrary, (A) the obligation of the Class B-1 Trust to purchase any Equipment Notes shall terminate on the Commitment Termination Date and (B) the obligation of the Class B-1 Trust to purchase any Equipment Notes in respect of an Aircraft that is not an Initial Aircraft shall be limited to the Class B Escrow Balance.

(h) Increased Cost Amounts; Indemnified Taxes; Make-Whole Amount. Without duplication of any other amounts payable under the Financing Agreements, the Company shall pay all Increased Cost Amounts, Indemnified Taxes and Make-Whole Amount (each as defined in the Loan Agreement) to the Class B-1 Trust for the benefit of the Lenders and/or the Pass-Through Lenders (without duplication) promptly as the same shall become due and owing under the Loan Agreement.

(i)Recycling Option.

(i)            In connection with any redemption of Series B-1 Equipment Notes under Section 2.10(a), 2.11(a), 2.11(b), 2.11(c) or 2.11(d) of the Indenture, in lieu of distributing the unpaid Original Amount of such Series B-1 Equipment Notes being redeemed pursuant to Sections 2.4 and 3.2 of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Subordination Agent shall deposit such Original Amount in an Eligible Account established pursuant to Section 3.06(z) of the Indenture (the “Class B Escrow Account”). The Class B Escrow Balance shall be deemed to constitute an unused portion of the Commitment and shall be available to be reborrowed by the Company pursuant to this Agreement (by way of issuance of further Series B-1 Equipment Notes, including additional or amended Series B-1 Equipment Notes in respect of any Aircraft previously financed hereunder) during the Availability Period.

4

[Note Purchase Agreement]

(ii)           The Company agrees to pay the Class B-1 Trust, for the account of the Lenders, a commitment fee (the “Class B Escrow Account Fee”) equal to the Debt Rate for the Series B-1 Equipment Notes on the average daily Class B Escrow Balance. Accrued and unpaid Class B Escrow Account Fees shall be due and payable in arrears on (A) each Payment Date (as defined in the Indenture) and (B) the date of any distribution of all or a portion of the Class B Escrow Balance under Section 1(i)(iii) (but in the case of this clause (B), only with respect to the portion of the Class B Escrow Balance to be so distributed).

(iii)          In connection with any redemption of Series B-1 Equipment Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer, a portion of the Class B Escrow Balance equal to the proportion that the Original Amount of Series B-1 Equipment Notes being redeemed bears to the aggregate outstanding Original Amount of the Series B-1 Equipment Notes (immediately prior to such redemption) shall be distributed to the Class B Security Trustee pursuant to Section 3.5 of the Intercreditor Agreement and applied to prepay the Class B Loans.

(iv)         Any amounts remaining in the Class B Escrow Account on the Maturity Date for the Series B-1 Equipment Notes shall be distributed to the Class B Security Trustee pursuant to Section 3.5 of the Intercreditor Agreement and applied to repay the Class B Loans on such Maturity Date.

Section 2. Conditions Precedent; Condition Subsequent. The obligation of the Class B-1 Trust to enter into, and to cause the Subordination Agent to enter into, the Participation Agreement Amendment or a Participation Agreement Supplement, as the case may be, with respect to any Aircraft as directed pursuant to a Closing Notice, and to perform its obligations under the Participation Agreement in respect of such Aircraft, is subject to satisfaction of the following conditions:

(a)           as of the Scheduled Closing Date, after giving pro forma effect to the issuance of the Equipment Notes specified in such Closing Notice and any payments under any Equipment Notes that may be due and payable between the date such Closing Notice is delivered and the Scheduled Closing Date specified therein, no LTV Ratio Trigger Event shall exist;

(b)          such Aircraft shall be an Eligible Aircraft;

(c)          the Original Amount (as defined in the Indenture) of the Series B-1 Equipment Notes requested in respect of such Aircraft, together with the Original Amount of the Series A-1 Equipment Notes issued (or requested, as the case may be) in respect of such Aircraft, shall not exceed 100% of the Adjusted Fair Market Value of such Aircraft;

(d)          no Triggering Event shall have occurred;

5

[Note Purchase Agreement]

(e)          the Scheduled Closing Date specified in such Closing Notice shall be on or prior to the Commitment Termination Date; and

(f)           as of the Scheduled Closing Date, after giving pro forma effect to the issuance of the Equipment Notes specified in such Closing Notice and any payments under any Equipment Notes that may be due and payable between the date such Closing Notice is delivered and the Scheduled Closing Date specified therein, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Series B-1 Equipment Notes shall not exceed the Maximum Facility Amount; provided, however, that if the requested Original Amount specified in the Closing Notice would result in the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Series B-1 Equipment Notes exceeding the Maximum Facility Amount, then the Closing Notice shall be deemed to be for the maximum amount of Original Amount that may then be borrowed without exceeding the Maximum Facility Amount.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligation of the Class B-1 Trust to purchase Equipment Notes with respect to an Aircraft pursuant to any Closing Notice shall terminate on the Cut-off Date with respect to such Aircraft, subject to the Company’s right to deliver a new Closing Notice for such Aircraft as described in Section 1(e).

Promptly following the Closing in respect of the Initial Aircraft, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver amendments to the Maintenance Provider Consents therefor as may be reasonably requested by the Class B-1 Trust to reflect the making of the Loan.

14

[Note Purchase Agreement]

(ii)            If such certificate described in (c)(i) above demonstrates that an LTV Ratio Trigger Event has occurred and is continuing as of such Collateral Test Date, the Company shall, on a date that is no later than 30 days after such Collateral Test Date (the “Collateral Cure Date”), (1) subject to the Recycling Option, redeem in part Series B-1 Equipment Notes at par (pro rata with respect to each Aircraft) in an aggregate amount equal to (but not exceeding) the amount required such that, after giving effect to such redemption (an “LTV Cure Redemption”), no LTV Ratio Trigger Event shall be continuing (such amount, the “Cure Amount”); and/or (2) provided the Cure Amount, after giving effect to prepayments made pursuant to clauses (1) above, is less than 10% of the Aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance, deposit cash in an aggregate amount equal to the Cure Amount into an Eligible Account established pursuant Section 3.06(x) of the Indenture (the “Cure Cash Collateral Account”) and/or (3) pledge additional aircraft (of any model included in the Initial Aircraft or otherwise listed in the definition of “Eligible Aircraft”) to the Loan Trustee, pursuant to an Indenture Supplement or a security agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Majority Lenders (as defined in the Loan Agreement), such that after giving effect to such pledge, no LTV Ratio Trigger Event shall be continuing.

If, as of such Cash Collateral End Date, an LTV Ratio Trigger Event has occurred and is continuing, the Company shall be required to make an LTV Cure Redemption in an aggregate amount equal to the amount required to cure the then existing LTV Ratio Trigger Event, provided, however, that if no LTV Ratio Trigger Event is continuing as of such Cash Collateral End Date, all or part of the Cure Amount shall be released to the Company in an aggregate amount such that, after giving effect to such release, no LTV Ratio Trigger Event shall exist.

(d) Change of Control Put Option.

15

[Note Purchase Agreement]

(2)             the date of prepayment (the “Prepayment Date”), which shall be no earlier than 15 days nor later than 30 days from the date such Change of Control Offer is mailed; and

(3)             a statement that any Lender wishing to have its Loans prepaid pursuant to such Change of Control Offer must comply with Section 4(d)(ii) of this Agreement.

(ii)            In order to accept any Change of Control Offer, a Lender must provide written notice (such notice, a “Change of Control Option Notice”) to the Class B-1 Trust and the Company in writing prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, at least five Business Days prior to the Prepayment Date with respect to such Change of Control Offer (the “Election Time”) of such Lender’s election to require the Class B-1 Trust to prepay all of such Lender’s outstanding Loans pursuant to such Change of Control Offer and the principal amount of such Lender’s Loans to be prepaid.

(iii)          If any Change of Control Notice is delivered in accordance with Section 4(d)(ii) above, the Company shall, on the Prepayment Date, redeem Class B-1 Equipment Notes at par (pro rata with respect to each Aircraft) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of Loans to be prepaid pursuant to such Change of Control Notice, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of redemption and any Increased Cost Amounts and Make-Whole Amount payable to such Lender.

(e) Liquidity Reserve.

(ii)            If, on any Liquidity Reserve Determination Date, the amount on deposit in the Liquidity Reserve Account, together with the amounts available for drawing under the Liquidity Reserve Letters of Credit, is less than the Liquidity Reserve Required Amount (such amount, a “Shortfall Amount”), then the Company shall no later than two (2) Business Days thereafter (i) deposit in cash an amount equal to such shortfall in the Liquidity Reserve Account or (ii) provide a Liquidity Reserve Letter of Credit (or increase the amount available to be drawn under any existing Liquidity Reserve Letter of Credit) in an amount equal to or greater than such shortfall.

(iii)          If on any Liquidity Reserve Determination Date, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the amount on deposit in the Liquidity Reserve Account, together with the amounts available for drawing under the Liquidity Reserve Letters of Credit, exceeds the Liquidity Reserve Required Amount, the Company, upon request to the Loan Trustee, shall be entitled to (i) withdraw in cash amounts from the Liquidity Reserve Account and/or (ii) reduce the amounts available to be drawn under any Liquidity Reserve Letter of Credit, in each case in an aggregate amount not to exceed the amount of such excess. Without limiting the foregoing, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing the Company may elect on any Business Day to adjust the amounts available in the Liquidity Reserve Account (by depositing or withdrawing amounts therein) or the amounts available to be drawn under any Liquidity Reserve Letter of Credit (by providing a new Liquidity Reserve Letter of Credit and/or increasing or reducing the amount available to be drawn under any outstanding Liquidity Reserve Letter of Credit) so long as, immediately following such adjustment, the Borrower is in compliance with Section 4(e)(i) above.

16

[Note Purchase Agreement]

(iv)           On each Liquidity Reserve Determination Date, the Liquidity Reserve Required Amount will be calculated by the Loan Trustee (and notified to the Company in writing).

(v)             (a) If an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) shall have occurred and is continuing and the Equipment Notes have either been accelerated pursuant to Section 5.02(b) of the Indenture or have become due at maturity, the Loan Trustee shall be entitled and authorized to withdraw any amounts on deposit in the Liquidity Reserve Account or make drawings on the Liquidity Reserve Letters of Credit in order to pay any Secured Obligations then due and payable in respect of the Series B-1 Equipment Notes, and (b) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing pursuant to Section 5.01(i) of the Indenture by way of non-payment of scheduled interest payable in respect of the Series B-1 Equipment Notes on any Payment Date, the Loan Trustee is authorized to withdraw any amounts on deposit in the Liquidity Reserve Account or make drawings on Liquidity Reserve Letters of Credit in order to pay such interest in respect of the Series B-1 Equipment Notes falling due and payable on such Payment Date.

Section 5. Notices.

(a)           Provided that the transactions contemplated hereby have been consummated, in whole or in part, and except as otherwise provided for herein, the representations, warranties and agreements herein of the Company, the Subordination Agent and the Class B-1 Trust, and the Company’s, the Subordination Agent’s and the Class B-1 Trust’s obligations under any and all thereof, shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the issuance of the Equipment Notes referred to herein, and may be relied upon by any subsequent Lender and Pass-Through Lender, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of such Lender or Pass-Through Lender, on the condition and understanding that such representations and warranties are made only as of the date hereof and each Closing Date.

(b)           This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (and each of the parties hereto shall not be required to execute the same counterpart). Each counterpart of this Agreement, including a signature page executed by each of the parties hereto, shall be an original counterpart of this Agreement, but all of such counterparts together shall constitute one instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by electronic transmission (in .pdf format) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. This Agreement may be in the form of an Electronic Record (as defined herein) and may be executed using Electronic Signatures (as defined herein) (including, without limitation, .pdf) and shall be considered an original, and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use or acceptance of a manually signed paper communication which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into “.pdf” format), or an electronically signed communication converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. “Electronic Record” and “Electronic Signature” shall have the meanings assigned to them, respectively, by 15 USC § 7006, as it may be amended from time to time.

[Note Purchase Agreement]

(d)           This Agreement is not intended to, and shall not, provide any person not a party hereto (other than the Lenders, the Pass-Through Lenders, and each of the beneficiaries of Section 1(j) and Section 6 hereof) with any rights of any nature whatsoever against any of the parties hereto, and no person not a party hereto (other than the Lenders, the Pass-Through Lenders and each of the beneficiaries of Section 1(j) and Section 6 hereof) shall have any right, power or privilege in respect of, or have any benefit or interest arising out of, this Agreement. To the extent that this Agreement expressly confers upon, gives or grants any right, representation, warranty, power, privilege, benefit, interest, remedy or claim to the Lenders, the Pass-Through Lenders or any of the beneficiaries of Section 1(j) and/or Section 6 hereof (including, but not limited to rights, powers, privileges, benefits, interests, remedies and claims under Section 1(j) and/or Section 6), each such person is hereby recognized as a third party beneficiary hereunder and may enforce any such right, power, privilege, benefit, interest, remedy or claim.

Section 9. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. THIS AGREEMENT IS BEING DELIVERED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Section 10. Corporate Transparency Act. WTNA is expressly entitled to assume for all purposes in respect of the Corporate Transparency Act (31 U.S.C § 5336) and its implementing regulations (collectively, the “CTA”), that the Class B-1 Trust is an Exempt Entity (as such term is used in the CTA) and is exempt from any filing or registration requirements with the FinCEN under the CTA. If it shall be determined that such assumption is incorrect and the CTA requires that a filing or registration be made with FinCEN, it shall be the obligation and duty of the Company, and not WTNA (in its individual capacity and as trustee under the Class B-1 Trust), to cause such required filing to be made on behalf of, and otherwise comply with the obligations of the Class B-1 Trust under the CTA, if any. The Company and WTNA (in its individual capacity and as trustee under the Class B-1 Trust) agree that for purposes of the CTA, the United Way Worldwide (an entity registered as a charitable association under the laws of the United States and Section 510(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of the United States) is and shall be deemed to be the sole direct beneficial owner of the Class B-1 Trust, and acknowledge that WTNA as trustee under the Class B-1 Trust acts solely as a directed trustee at the direction of the Subordination Agent pursuant to the terms of the declaration of trust dated May 13, 2026 that caused the formation of the Class B-1 Trust and the Financing Agreements.
