and the Spare Parts Loan are secured by certain spare Mainline aircraft engines ("Engine Collateral") and certain Mainline aircraft spare parts that we own ("Spare Parts Collateral"). The
Engine Collateral and Spare Parts Collateral also secure leases for up to 22 CRJ-200 aircraft and, on a subordinated basis, certain other aircraft lease obligations to GECC and its

(5) As of December 31, 2008, the Certificates are secured by 148 aircraft. Included in the amount as of December 31, 2008 shown in the table is an aggregate of $1.3 billion in Certificates

by American Express over an expected two year period beginning in December 2010.
