pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated January 1, 1998 (the "Merger
Agreement") among JetFleet Aircraft, L.P. ("JetFleet I"), JetFleet Aircraft II,
L.P. ("JetFleet II") and ACY. The Merger Agreement provided for the merger of

converted into 91 shares of Common Stock of ACY.

Stock. Initially, 67,793 shares of ACY Common Stock were distributed to CMA
Capital Group, Inc. ("Group"), the general partner of JetFleet I and JetFleet

Capital Corporation, and then to CMA, along with other creditors of CMA
Capital Corporation, as settlement of indebtedness of CMA Capital Corporation,
to CMA. Mr. Crispin is the sole shareholder and director of the parent of CMA.

<PAGE> 5
Page 5 of 7 Pages

shares of ACY Common Stock on January 16, 1998, the opening day of trading,
using working capital. Mr. Crispin is the sole shareholder, director and
officer of CMA Consolidated, Inc., the 100% parent of CMACM.
ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION
Mr. Crispin and Ms. Perazzo jointly acquired beneficial ownership of
an aggregate of 194,394 shares of Common Stock of ACY for purposes of
investment and not for the purpose of changing the control of ACY.
Neither Mr. Crispin nor Ms. Perazzo has any plans which relate to or
would result in:
(a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the
issuer, or the disposition of securities of the issuer; provided, however, that
they reserve the right to acquire additional securities of the issuer or
dispose of securities of the issuer from time to time;
(b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger,
reorganization or liquidation, involving the issuer or any of its subsidiaries;
(c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the issuer or
any of its subsidiaries;
(d) any change in the present board of directors or management of the
issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of
directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board;
(e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend
policy of the issuer;
(f) any other material change in the issuer's business or corporate
structure;
(g) changes in the issuer's charter, bylaws or instruments
corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of
control of the issuer by any person;
(h) causing a class of securities of the issuer to be delisted from a
national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an
inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association;
(i) a class of equity securities of the issuer becoming eligible for
termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or
(j) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.
ITEM 5. INTEREST IN THE SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
(a) Mr. Crispin and Ms. Perazzo together are the beneficial owners of
an aggregate of 194,394 shares of Common Stock of ACY, representing
approximately 12.14% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of ACY.
<PAGE> 6
Page 6 of 7 Pages
(b) The shares of Common Stock owned directly by Mr. Crispin and Ms.
Perazzo are registered jointly in their names, and, as such, they share jointly
the power to vote or to direct the vote of and to dispose or to direct the
disposition of the shares. Because Mr. Crispin and Ms. Perazzo are directors,
officers, principal shareholders and indirect beneficial owners of 60% of the
Common Stock of JMC, Mr. Crispin and Ms. Perazzo share jointly, along with
other shareholders, the power to vote or to direct the vote of and to dispose
or to direct the disposition of the shares held by JMC. Because Mr. Crispin is
a director and officer and Ms. Perazzo is an officer of each of Capital
Management Associates and CMA Capital Management, Inc., and Mr. Crispin is the
sole shareholder of CMA Consolidated, Inc., the 100% parent of Capital
Management Associates and CMA Capital Management, Inc., Mr. Crispin and Ms.
Perazzo share jointly the power to vote or to direct the vote of and to
dispose or to direct the disposition of the 44,119 shares of Common Stock held
by Capital Management Associates.
(c) Beneficial ownership of 91 shares was acquired by Mr. Crispin and
Ms. Perazzo pursuant to the Merger Agreement identified in Item 3 of this
Schedule 13D. Beneficial ownership of 150,000 shares of Common Stock by Mr.
Crispin and Ms. Perazzo arises out of their "controlling person" status of
JetFleet Management Corp, which owns directly 150,000 shares, as identified in
Item 3 of this Schedule 13D. Beneficial ownership of 44,119 shares was
acquired by Capital Management Associates as described in Item 3 of this
Schedule 13D. Beneficial ownership of 84 Shares of Common Stock was acquired
by Mr. Crispin and Ms. Perazzo as creditors of CMA Capital Corporation, as
described in Item 3 of this Schedule 13D. Beneficial ownership of 100 shares
was acquired through CMA Capital Management, Inc.'s purchase on the open
market as described in Item 3 of this Schedule 13D.
(d) To the knowledge and belief of Mr. Crispin and Ms. Perazzo, no
other person is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct the
receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the 194,394 shares
of Common Stock.
(e) Not applicable.
ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT
TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
Under JMC 1997-ACY Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), JMC has granted
Mr. Crispin has an option to purchase 20,000 shares of ACY Common Stock held by
JMC, which vests over a three year period.

Participant an option (this "OPTION") to purchase the total number of shares of
Common Stock of AeroCentury Corp. ("ACY"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company, set forth above as Total Option Shares (the "SHARES") at the Exercise
Price Per Share set forth above (the "EXERCISE PRICE"), subject to all of the
terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan. If designated as an
Incentive Stock Option above, the Option is intended to qualify as an
"incentive stock option" ("ISO") within the meaning of Section 422 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "CODE").
2. EXERCISE PERIOD.
2.1 Exercise Period of Option. Provided
Participant continues to provide services to the Company or any Subsidiary or
Parent of the Company, the Option shall become vested and exercisable as to
portions of the Shares as follows: (a) This Option shall not vest with respect
to any of the Shares until April 1, 1998 (the "FIRST VESTING DATE"); (b) on the
First Vesting Date the Option shall vest as to twenty percent (20%) of the
Shares; and (c) thereafter each year on the anniversary of the First Vesting
Date the Option shall vest as to an additional twenty percent (20%) of the
Shares until this Option is vested with respect to 100% of the Shares. If
application of the vesting percentage causes a fractional share, such share
shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share.
<PAGE> 2
2.2 Vesting of Options. Shares that are vested
pursuant to the schedule set forth in Section 2.1 are "VESTED SHARES." Shares
that are not vested pursuant to the schedule set forth in Section 2.1 are
"UNVESTED SHARES."
2.3 Expiration. The Option shall expire on the
Expiration Date set forth above or earlier as provided in Section 3 below.
3. TERMINATION.
3.1 Termination for Any Reason Except Death,
Disability or Cause. If Participant is Terminated for any reason, except
death, Disability or for Cause, the Option, to the extent (and only to the
extent) that it would have been exercisable by Participant on the Termination
Date, may be exercised by Participant no later than three (3) months after the
Termination Date, but in any event no later than the Expiration Date.
3.2 Termination Because of Death or Disability. If
Participant is Terminated because of death or Disability of Participant (or
Participant dies within three (3) months of Termination other than because of
Participant's Disability or for Cause), the Option, to the extent that it is
exercisable by Participant on the Termination Date, may be exercised by
Participant (or Participant's legal representative) no later than twelve (12)
months after the Termination Date, but in any event no later than the
Expiration Date. Any exercise beyond (a) three (3) months after the
Termination Date when the Termination is for any reason other than the
Participant's death or disability, within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of
the Code; or (b) twelve (12) months after the Termination Date when the
termination is for Participant's disability, within the meaning of Section
22(e)(3) of the Code, is deemed to be an NQSO.
3.3 Termination for Cause. If Participant is
Terminated for Cause, then the Option will expire on Participant's Termination
Date, or at such later time and on such conditions as are determined by the
Committee.
3.4 No Obligation to Employ. Nothing in the Plan
or this Agreement shall confer on Participant any right to continue in the
employ of, or other relationship with, the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary
of the Company, or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Parent or
Subsidiary of the Company to terminate Participant's employment or other
relationship at any time, with or without Cause.
4. MANNER OF EXERCISE.
4.1 Stock Option Exercise Agreement. To exercise
this Option, Participant (or in the case of exercise after Participant's death
or incapacity, Participant's executor, administrator, heir or legatee, as the
case may be) must deliver to the Company an executed stock option exercise
agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, or in such other form as
may be approved by the Company from time to time (the "EXERCISE AGREEMENT"),
which shall set forth, inter alia, Participant's election to exercise the
Option, the number of Shares being purchased, any restrictions imposed on the
Shares and any representations, warranties and agreements regarding
Participant's investment intent and access to information as may be required by
the Company to comply with applicable securities laws. If someone other than
Participant exercises the Option, then such person must submit documentation
reasonably acceptable to the Company that such person has the right to exercise
the Option.
4.2 Limitations on Exercise. The Option may not be
exercised unless such exercise is in compliance with all applicable federal and
state securities laws, as they are in effect on the date of exercise. The
Option may not be exercised as to fewer than one hundred (100) Shares unless it
is exercised as to all Shares as to which the Option is then exercisable.
-2-
<PAGE> 3
4.3 Payment. The Exercise Agreement shall be
accompanied by full payment of the Exercise Price for the shares being
purchased in cash (by check), or where permitted by law:
(a) by cancellation of indebtedness of the
Company to the Participant;
(b) by surrender of shares of the Company's
Common Stock that (1) either (A) have
been owned by Participant for more than
six (6) months and have been paid for
within the meaning of SEC Rule 144
(and, if such shares were purchased
from the Company by use of a promissory
note, such note has been fully paid
with respect to such shares); or (B)
were obtained by Participant in the
open public market; and (2) are clear
of all liens, claims, encumbrances or
security interests;
(c) by waiver of compensation due or
accrued to Participant for services
rendered;
(d) provided that a public market for the
Company's stock exists, (1) through a
"same day sale" commitment from
Participant and a broker-dealer that
is a member of the National
Association of Securities Dealers (an
"NASD DEALER") whereby Participant
irrevocably elects to exercise the
Option and to sell a portion of the
Shares so purchased to pay for the
Exercise Price and whereby the NASD
Dealer irrevocably commits upon
receipt of such Shares to forward the
Exercise Price directly to the
Company, or (2) through a "margin"
commitment from Participant and an
NASD Dealer whereby Participant
irrevocably elects to exercise the
Option and to pledge the Shares so
purchased to the NASD Dealer in a
margin account as security for a loan
from the NASD Dealer in the amount of
the Exercise Price, and whereby the
NASD Dealer irrevocably commits upon
receipt of such Shares to forward the
Exercise Price directly to the
Company; or
(e) by any combination of the foregoing.
4.4 Tax Withholding. Prior to the issuance of the
Shares upon exercise of the Option, Participant must pay or provide for any
applicable federal, state and local withholding obligations of the Company. If
the Committee permits, Participant may provide for payment of withholding taxes
upon exercise of the Option by requesting that the Company retain Shares with a
Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld.
In such case, the Company shall issue the net number of Shares to the
Participant by deducting the Shares retained from the Shares issuable upon
exercise.
4.5 Issuance of Shares. Provided that the Exercise
Agreement and payment are in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the
Company, the Company shall issue the Shares registered in the name of
Participant, Participant's authorized assignee, or Participant's legal
representative, and shall deliver certificates representing the Shares with the
appropriate legends affixed thereto.
5. NOTICE OF DISQUALIFYING DISPOSITION OF ISO SHARES. If
the Option is an ISO, and if Participant sells or otherwise disposes of any of
the Shares acquired pursuant to the ISO on or before the later of (a) the date
two (2) years after the Date of Grant, and (b) the date one (1) year after
transfer of such Shares to Participant upon exercise of the Option, Participant
shall immediately notify the Company in writing of such disposition.
Participant agrees that Participant may be subject to income tax withholding by
the Company on the compensation income recognized by Participant from the early
disposition by payment in cash or out of the current wages or other
compensation payable to Participant.
- 3 -
<PAGE> 4
6. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS AND REGULATIONS. The exercise of
the Option and the issuance and transfer of Shares shall be subject to
compliance by the Company and Participant with all applicable requirements of
federal and state securities laws and with all applicable requirements of any
stock exchange on which the Company's Common Stock may be listed at the time of
such issuance or transfer. Participant understands that the Company is under
no obligation to register or qualify the Shares with the SEC, any state
securities commission or any stock exchange to effect such compliance.
7. NONTRANSFERABILITY OF OPTION. The Option may not be
transferred in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent and
distribution and may be exercised during the lifetime of Participant only by
Participant or in the event of Participant's incapacity, by Participant's legal
representative. The terms of the Option shall be binding upon the executors,
administrators, successors and assigns of Participant.
8. COMPANY'S RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. Before any Vested
Shares held by Participant or any transferee of such Vested Shares may be sold
or otherwise transferred (including without limitation a transfer by gift or
operation of law), the Company and/or its assignee(s) shall have an assignable
right of first refusal to purchase the Vested Shares to be sold or transferred
on the terms and conditions set forth in the Exercise Agreement (the "Right of
First Refusal"). The Company's Right of First Refusal will terminate when the
Company's securities become publicly traded.
9. TAX CONSEQUENCES. Set forth below is a brief summary
as of the Effective Date of the Plan of some of the federal and California tax
consequences of exercise of the Option and disposition of the Shares. THIS
SUMMARY IS NECESSARILY INCOMPLETE, AND THE TAX LAWS AND REGULATIONS ARE SUBJECT
TO CHANGE. PARTICIPANT SHOULD CONSULT A TAX ADVISER BEFORE EXERCISING THE
OPTION OR DISPOSING OF THE SHARES.
9.1 Exercise of ISO. If the Option qualifies as an
ISO, there will be no regular federal or California income tax liability upon
the exercise of the Option, although the excess, if any, of the Fair Market
Value of the Shares on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price will be
treated as a tax preference item for federal alternative minimum tax purposes
and may subject the Participant to the alternative minimum tax in the year of
exercise.
9.2 Exercise of Nonqualified Stock Option. If the
Option does not qualify as an ISO, there may be a regular federal and
California income tax liability upon the exercise of the Option. Participant
will be treated as having received compensation income (taxable at ordinary
income tax rates) equal to the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of the
Shares on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price. If Participant is a
current or former employee of the Company, the Company may be required to
withhold from Participant's compensation or collect from Participant and pay to
the applicable taxing authorities an amount equal to a percentage of this
compensation income at the time of exercise.
9.3 Disposition of Shares. The following tax
consequences may apply upon disposition of the Shares.
a. Incentive Stock Options. If the
Shares are held for more than twelve (12) months after the date of the transfer
of the Shares pursuant to the exercise of an ISO and are disposed of more than
two (2) years after the Date of Grant, any gain realized on disposition of the
Shares will be treated as capital gain for federal and California income tax
purposes. The maximum federal capital gain tax rates are twenty eight percent
(28%) for Shares held more than twelve (12) months, but not more than eighteen
(18) months ("MID-TERM CAPITAL GAIN"), and twenty percent (20%) for Shares held
for more than eighteen (18) months ("LONG-TERM CAPITAL GAIN"). If Shares
purchased under an ISO are disposed of within the applicable one (1) year or
two (2) year period, any gain realized on such disposition will be treated as
compensation income (taxable at ordinary income rates) to the extent of the
excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of exercise
over the Exercise Price.
- 4 -
<PAGE> 5
b. Nonqualified Stock Options. If the
Shares are held for more than twelve (12) months after the date of the transfer
of the Shares pursuant to the exercise of an NQSO, any gain realized on
disposition of the Shares will be treated as Mid-Term Capital Gain or Long-Term
Capital Gain, as the case may be.
c. Withholding. The Company may be
required to withhold from Participant's compensation or collect from the
Participant and pay to the applicable taxing authorities an amount equal to a
percentage of this compensation income.
10. PRIVILEGES OF STOCK OWNERSHIP. Participant shall not
have any of the rights of a shareholder with respect to any Shares until the
Shares are issued to Participant.
11. INTERPRETATION. Any dispute regarding the
interpretation of this Agreement shall be submitted by Participant or the
Company to the Committee for review. The resolution of such a dispute by the
Committee shall be final and binding on the Company and Participant.
12. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. The Plan is incorporated herein by
reference. This Agreement and the Plan constitute the entire agreement of the
parties and supersede all prior undertakings and agreements with respect to the
subject matter hereof.
13. NOTICES. Any notice required to be given or delivered
to the Company under the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and
addressed to the Corporate Secretary of the Company at its principal corporate
offices. Any notice required to be given or delivered to Participant shall be
in writing and addressed to Participant at the address indicated above or to
such other address as such party may designate in writing from time to time to
the Company. All notices shall be deemed to have been given or delivered upon:
personal delivery; three (3) days after deposit in the United States mail by
certified or registered mail (return receipt requested); one (1) business day
after deposit with any return receipt express courier (prepaid); or one (1)
business day after transmission by facsimile, rapifax or telecopier.
14. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. The Company may assign any of
its rights under this Agreement. If Company has reserved a Repurchase Option
and/or a Right of First Refusal, Add and modify as necessary: including its
rights to repurchase Shares under the Right of First Refusal. This Agreement
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of
the Company. Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth herein, this
Agreement shall be binding upon Participant and Participant's heirs, executors,
administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns.
15. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California as such laws
are applied to agreements between California residents entered into and to be
performed entirely within California. If any provision of this Agreement is
determined by a court of law to be illegal or unenforceable, then such
provision will be enforced to the maximum extent possible and the other
provisions will remain fully effective and enforceable.
16. ACCEPTANCE. Participant hereby acknowledges receipt of
a copy of the Plan and this Agreement. Participant has read and understands
