The Pledgor shall cause the secretary of the Borrower to confirm receipt of said notice and his or her compliance with said instructions by signing and delivering to the Collateral Agent, on or prior to the Effective Date, a copy of a document substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto.

(b) The Pledgor agrees that at any time and from time to time, the Pledgor will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents and take all further action requested by the Collateral Agent that may be reasonably necessary or desirable in order to perfect and protect any security interest granted hereby or to enable the Collateral Agent to exercise or enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to the Pledged Collateral, including, without limitation, the Pledged Stock.

7. Transfers and Other Liens. The Pledgor agrees that it will not (a) sell or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, any of the Pledged Collateral, or (b) create or permit to exist any lien, security interest or other charge or encumbrance upon or with respect to any of the Pledged Collateral, except for the security interest under this Agreement.

8. Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. The Pledgor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent as the Pledgor’s attorney-in-fact (said power of attorney being coupled with an interest), with full authority in the place and stead of the Pledgor and in the name of the Pledgor or otherwise with full power of substitution, from time to time in the Collateral Agent’s discretion if the Loans have been accelerated pursuant to Section 8 of the Senior Credit Agreement to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, to exercise or enforce any right or remedy available to the Collateral Agent hereunder or under any applicable law, including, without limitation, the right to receive, endorse and collect all instruments made payable to the Pledgor representing any dividend, interest payment or other distribution in respect of the Pledged Stock or any part thereof, and to give full discharge for the same. Upon the request of the Collateral Agent, the Pledgor will provide documentation evidencing such power of attorney and such further powers of attorney on the same terms set forth above.

9. Reasonable Care. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Stock if it has maintained possession thereof, if the Pledged Stock is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Collateral Agent accords its own property, it being understood that the Collateral Agent shall not have any responsibility for (a) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Pledged Stock, whether or not the Collateral Agent has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters; or (b) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any Pledged Stock.

10. Remedies Upon Default. If the Loans have been accelerated pursuant to Section 8 of the Senior Credit Agreement:

(a) The Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Pledged Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the Uniform Commercial Code and the Collateral Agent may also, without notice except as specified below, sell the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, in one or more parcels, at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker’s board or at any of the Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable. In case any sale of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral is made on credit or for future

delivery, the Pledged Collateral so sold may be retained by the Collateral Agent until the sale price is paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, the Collateral Agent shall not incur any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and pay for the Pledged Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Pledged Collateral may be sold again upon like notice. The Collateral Agent agrees to give twenty days notice to the Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale, or the time after which any private sale is to be made, and the Pledgor agrees what such notice shall constitute reasonable notification. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Pledged Collateral, regardless of whether notice of sale shall have been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. At any public sale made pursuant to this paragraph, the Collateral Agent may bid for or purchase the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof by using any claim then due and payable to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the Obligations, as a credit against the purchase price therefor; and the Collateral Agent may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability to the Pledgor therefor (provided, however, that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the Pledgor’s right to bid for the Pledged Collateral in any public sale). As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the Collateral Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose upon the Pledged Collateral pursuant to this Agreement and to sell the Pledged Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts having competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a court-appointed receiver.

(b) The Collateral Agent may hold the Pledged Stock and cause the same to be registered in the Books and Records in its name or in the name of its nominee, whereupon the Collateral Agent or such nominee shall enjoy all the rights and benefits attributable to the ownership thereof.

(c) The Collateral Agent may vote all or any of the Pledged Stock, act by consent in lieu of a meeting, and give all consents, waivers and ratifications with respect thereto and otherwise act as though it were the outright owner thereof and the Pledgor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent (or its successor and assign) its proxy and attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution to do so.

(d) All payments received and amounts held or realized by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section, including any cash held by the Collateral Agent as Pledged Collateral and all cash proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, shall be promptly distributed by the Collateral Agent in the manner specified in Section 9 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, as if references to the Lien Grantor therein were references to the Pledgor.

11. Notices. Unless otherwise expressly specified or permitted by the terms hereof, all notices and other communications provided or permitted to be made hereunder shall be made in accordance with Section 10.2 of the Credit Agreements except that notices, requests and demands to or upon the Pledgor shall be addressed to the Pledgor as follows: AerCap, Inc., 100

N.E. Third Avenue, Suite 800, Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33301, Attention: Legal Department Facsimile: 974-760-7716, or to such other address as the Pledgor shall notify to the Agents and the Collateral Agent in writing.

12. Continuing Security Interest; Release. This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Pledged Stock and Rights and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until payment and performance of the Obligations, (ii) be binding upon the Pledgor and its successors and assigns, and (iii) inure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and its successors and transferees and assigns. The security interest granted hereby shall terminate when all Obligations have been paid and performed in full, at which time the Collateral Agent shall return the Pledged Stock and the stock powers and shall upon request and at the expense of the Pledgor, execute and deliver to the Pledgor such documents as the Pledgor shall furnish to the Collateral Agent and reasonably request to evidence such termination, all without recourse upon or warranty by the Collateral Agent and at the cost and expense of the Pledgor.

13. Construction. Captions and section headings used herein are for convenience only and are not part of this Agreement and shall not be used in construing it. In construing any provision of this Agreement, no account shall be taken of the party who prepared this Agreement and no presumption shall arise as a result thereof. In the event that any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect or in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein or of the same provision in any other jurisdiction where the same shall be valid, legal or enforceable, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and each of such provisions shall be severable to the maximum extent permitted by law.

14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be an original document and all of which together shall constitute but one and the same agreement.

15. No Implied Waivers; Remedies Not Exclusive. No failure by the Collateral Agent or the Agents or any Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising and no course of dealing with respect to, any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Collateral Agent or any Lender of any right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies specified herein and in each other are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

16. Successors And Assigns. This Agreement is for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, the Agents and the Lenders. If all or any part of any Lenders’ interest in any Obligation is assigned or otherwise transferred, the transferor’s rights hereunder, to the extent applicable to the obligation so transferred, shall be automatically transferred with such obligation. This Agreement shall be binding on the Lien Grantors and their successors and assigns.

17. Amendments And Waivers. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended, modified or terminated except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the parties hereto.

18. Choice Of Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York, except as otherwise required by mandatory provisions of law and except to the extent that remedies provided by the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York are governed by the laws of such jurisdiction.

19. Waiver Of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY SECURITY DOCUMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

20. Severability. If any provision of any Security Document is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law (i) the other provisions of the Security Documents shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction and shall be liberally construed in favor of the Collateral Agent, the Agents and the Lenders in order to carry out the intentions of the parties thereto as nearly as may be possible, and (ii) the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision in such jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction.
