ITEM 1.  BUSINESS
 
INTRODUCTION
 
     Trans World Airlines, Inc. ("TWA", the "Company" or the "Registrant"), a
Delaware corporation organized in 1978, is the seventh largest U.S. air carrier
(based on 1995 revenue passenger miles ("RPMs") and available seat miles
("ASMs")), whose primary business is transporting passengers, cargo and mail.
TWA's North American operations have a primarily domestic hub in St. Louis at
Lambert International Airport ("St. Louis") and a domestic-international hub at
New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport ("JFK"). TWA is the predominant
carrier at St. Louis. Given its location in the center of the country, St. Louis
is well-suited to function as an omni-directional hub for both north-south and
east-west transcontinental traffic. TWA's international operations are
concentrated at JFK, where TWA has a hub system designed to provide domestic
feed traffic for its transatlantic service. JFK is the industry's largest
international gateway from North America. The Company focuses its international
operations on business markets that it believes can support non-stop service.
 
RECENT DEVELOPMENT -- OFFERING OF 8% CUMULATIVE CONVERTIBLE EXCHANGEABLE
PREFERRED STOCK
 
     In March 1996, the Company completed the sale of an aggregate of 3,869,000
shares of a newly authorized series of convertible preferred stock, the 8%
Cumulative Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock (the "8% Preferred Stock").
The gross proceeds from the sale of the 8% Preferred Stock were approximately
$193.5 million, and the net proceeds to the Company were approximately $186.2
million after commissions and expenses. A portion of the net proceeds of the
offering will be used to redeem the Company's outstanding 12% Cumulative
Preferred Stock (the "12% Preferred Stock"), pursuant to the terms thereof, at
an aggregate redemption price of approximately $81.7 million, plus accrued
dividends from February 1, 1996 to the redemption date. The Company intends to
use the balance of the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, including
but not limited to capital expenditures and increasing working capital.
 
     The offering and sale of the 8% Preferred Stock was made pursuant to Rule
144A of the Securities Act of 1933 and, accordingly, such shares are not
currently registered under federal and state securities laws. The Company has
agreed to file a shelf registration statement in respect of the 8% Preferred
Stock, the debentures issuable on the exchange thereof and the shares of common
stock issuable upon the conversion thereof.
 
     See "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations."
 
BUSINESS STRATEGY -- STRATEGIC REPOSITIONING OF THE COMPANY
 
     Beginning with the hiring of the new management team in 1994, TWA has
instituted a strategic repositioning of the Company designed to improve the
Company's overall operating and financial performance. In addition to the
financial restructuring, cost savings and operating efficiencies achieved as a
result of a prepackaged Chapter 11 plan of reorganization filed by the Company
on June 30, 1995 (the "'95 Reorganization"), the key ongoing elements of this
strategy are:
 
     Route Structure
 
     The Company is endeavoring to optimize its route structure by redeploying
its assets to markets where it believes it has a competitive advantage and to
limit its commitments in other markets.
 
     Domestically, the Company believes the greatest opportunities for improved
operating results will come from focusing additional resources on its St. Louis
hub in order to leverage its strong market position. The Company already
dominates operations at St. Louis, with approximately 71% of total 1995
enplanements. In addition, the Company enjoys certain advantages in the Midwest
due to its established route system, strong brand identity and concentrated
presence in that market. Because St. Louis is located in the center of the
country, it is well-suited to function as an omni-directional hub for both
north-south and east-west transcontinental traffic. Therefore, TWA believes it
is better positioned to offer more frequencies and
<PAGE>   3
 
connecting opportunities to many travelers in its key Midwestern markets than
competing airlines. The Company has increased its number of daily departures at
St. Louis from 229 in 1993 to 348 in 1995 and is projected to reach 358 in 1996.
 
     At the same time, the Company has eliminated domestic operations where the
Company concluded it could not compete profitably. For example, in 1994 the
Company closed its Atlanta hub due to continued poor results. Management
estimates the Atlanta hub was generating approximately $3 million per month in
operating losses. The Company has redeployed most of the former Atlanta based
employees and equipment to St. Louis.
 
     Prior to November 1995, commuter feed service to JFK had been provided by
Trans World Express, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of TWA ("TWE"). TWA
outsourced such service to Trans States Airlines, Inc. ("Trans States") after
TWA's management determined that Trans States could provide such service on a
more cost efficient basis and discontinued the operations of TWE. Management
estimates that, as a result, TWA's operating results should be improved by
approximately $1 million per month in 1996. TWE is currently being liquidated.
 
     Internationally, the Company's operations are concentrated at JFK,
supplemented by certain routes from Boston and St. Louis. The Company's strategy
is to reduce and streamline operations to focus on business markets that it
believes can support non-stop service. As a result, during 1994 and 1995, the
Company eliminated service to several European cities including Berlin, Zurich
and Vienna and reduced its service to and from Paris. In the summer of 1996, the
Company plans to add seasonal capacity in key markets with strong leisure
demand, such as JFK to Milan, Rome and Tel Aviv.
 
     In addition to its own international operations, TWA is exploring the
possibility of entering into marketing and code-share alliances with foreign
carriers. These alliances, if consummated, would allow the Company to provide
its passengers with extended service to foreign destinations not served directly
by the Company, while feeding TWA's North American operations from these foreign
destinations.
 
     Customer Service; Travel Agent Commissions
 
     Over the past two years, the Company has focused on improving the quality
of its air travel product and the service provided to passengers by TWA
personnel. TWA has undertaken a number of initiatives to build brand loyalty
among existing customers and increase its market share of value-conscious
business travelers and price-conscious leisure travelers. The initiatives
include:
 
     Focus on Business Traveler. Based on customer research, the Company has
targeted value-conscious business travelers and is therefore tailoring its
marketing and advertising efforts to emphasize the Company's positioning as a
full-service, high-value airline providing service to popular business
destinations throughout the U.S. The Company believes that its convenient flight
schedules and connections, as well as its centrally located hub at St. Louis,
are important in providing service which is attractive to these travelers. The
Company also offers its Frequent Flight Bonus ("FFB(R)") program in order to
build customer loyalty among business travelers.
 
     In March 1995, TWA began implementation of Trans World One(SM) ("Trans
World One") service in international and transcontinental non-stop markets.
Trans World One is aimed at attracting business travelers by providing improved
premium class service at fares comparable to its competitors' business class
service. To implement Trans World One, TWA has converted its wide-body fleet of
Boeing 747 and 767 aircraft from a traditional three-class configuration to a
two-class configuration, with a special emphasis on improvements to the premium
class cabin, including new seats with increased recline capability and enhanced
meal service and wine selections.
 
     Leisure Traveler. Within the leisure travel market, TWA has positioned
itself as a high-quality, low-fare carrier. Management believes that based upon
TWA's lower costs and its extensive off-peak flight schedule, the Company is in
a strong position to compete for price-conscious leisure travelers who seek a
full-service product at prices competitive with other carriers offering
"no-frills" service. To capitalize on its strengths in this area, the Company's
marketing and advertising efforts targeted at this segment will continue to
emphasize
 
                                        2
<PAGE>   4
 
TWA's quality image and strong name recognition together with the airline's
broad route network serving popular leisure destinations. The Company has
recently commenced service to additional leisure destinations in Mexico and the
Caribbean, and has entered into marketing agreements with a number of major
international tour packagers.
 
     Travel Agents' Commissions. TWA pays the full traditional 10% commission on
tickets for domestic transportation on TWA sold by independent travel agents and
has removed the cap of $50 and $25 per domestic round-trip and one-way tickets,
respectively, which it and most other major airlines imposed in 1995. Although
the Company can not quantify the current or potential future impact of this
decision, the Company believes the payment of full commissions is a positive
factor in the Company maintaining and improving its long-term relationships with
such travel agents. See "-- Operations -- Travel Agents' Commissions."
 
     Cooperative Labor Relationship
 
     Management believes TWA's cooperative relationship with its employees,
including employees represented by trade unions, is a valuable asset and
distinguishes the Company from many other major U.S. airlines. The Company's
employees have demonstrated significant loyalty and commitment to TWA's future
by agreeing to various wage and work rule concessions to improve productivity in
connection with a Chapter 11 bankruptcy case filed by the Company on January 31,
1992 (the "'93 Reorganization") and the '95 Reorganization. As a result of these
agreements (i) the Company's employees received approximately 30% of the voting
equity of TWA outstanding immediately following the '95 Reorganization and (ii)
certain corporate governance provisions were effected, including provision of
the right of employees represented by the Air Line Pilots Association,
International ("ALPA"), the International Association of Machinists and
Aerospace Workers ("IAM"), and the Independent Federation of Flight Attendants
("IFFA"), who together constitute approximately 84% of TWA's total employees, to
elect four of the Company's 15 directors. Union and non-union employees are also
eligible under an employee stock incentive plan (the "ESIP") to increase their
level of stock ownership through grants and purchases of additional shares over
a five year period commencing in 1997. See "-- Employees."
 
     The Company believes that the status of its employees as substantial
stockholders and participants in corporate governance and the Company's efforts
to involve employees in developing and achieving the Company's goals will result
in continued enhancement of the Company's ability to provide high-quality air
travel and customer service. As part of the Company's efforts to foster employee
participative management concepts throughout the organization, several employee
led initiatives were begun in 1994 and continue to be developed and implemented.
These include "Change Teams" which are designed to focus upon cost savings and
revenue enhancing opportunities at a local level and are in place at every TWA
domestic location. Change Teams are led by 10 full-time non-management advisors
selected by union leadership, in the case of represented employees, and
non-contract employee peers, in the case of unrepresented employees.
Internationally, Change Teams are in the process of being formed. A second
initiative, the Productivity Task Force, is designed to focus upon broader cost
savings opportunities and is comprised of both labor and management members.
These initiatives are supported by the Management/Labor Advisory Task Force,
consisting of union leaders, the Chief Executive Officer and other senior
officers of the Company. This task force meets monthly to discuss these and
other initiatives to demonstrate joint commitment to reengineering efforts.
 
     Fleet Upgrade
 
     TWA's fleet modernization plans seek to realize operating cost savings by
replacing a number of older, less efficient aircraft with more modern,
technologically advanced, twin engine, two-pilot aircraft which will result in a
decrease in operating and maintenance costs. In addition, the Company plans to
simplify its fleet by reducing the number of aircraft types to decrease crew
training and aircraft maintenance costs, and to "right-size" the fleet to
conform better to the requirements of TWA's route structure. Despite the higher
capital costs associated with owning or leasing new and later model aircraft,
the Company believes that corresponding reductions in operating costs should
result in a lower overall cost per seat mile. Management believes this
initiative offers the potential for greater proportionate benefit to TWA than
perhaps any other major U.S. airline.
 
                                        3
<PAGE>   5
 
     During 1996 and 1997, the Company intends to replace its 15 remaining
L-1011 aircraft (three-engine, three-pilot jets with an average age of
approximately 21.5 years) with new, more efficient twin engine, two-pilot Boeing
757 aircraft. TWA recently announced (i) a firm commitment with a major
operating lessor to lease 10 new Boeing 757s with deliveries in 1996 and 1997
and (ii) the firm purchase of an additional 10 new Boeing 757 aircraft with
deliveries scheduled to commence in February 1997. The Company also acquired the
right, subject to certain conditions, to purchase up to 20 additional new Boeing
757 aircraft from the manufacturer. TWA is also in discussions with certain
other lessors to lease other aircraft as part of TWA's fleet modernization
program. Finally, the Company is continuing the process of outfitting its DC-9
fleet with "hush-kits" in order to bring such aircraft into compliance with
Stage 3 requirements of the Noise Act. See "Regulatory Matters -- Noise
Abatement."
 
     Investment in Technology
 
     Management believes significant opportunities exist for the Company to
increase revenues and reduce costs by investing in available technology that
provides the Company and its employees with the information necessary to operate
its business more effectively and to improve customer service. The Company has
recently taken a significant step forward in this area by installing a new
computerized yield management system. When fully implemented later in 1996, this
system is expected to allow the Company to improve significantly its ability to
estimate demand flight-by-flight for each class of fares and manage the
allocation of seats accordingly. Given TWA's prior lack of a computerized yield
management system, the Company's management believes that full implementation of
this new system will offer significant opportunities for revenue improvement.
The Company is also implementing a "QIK-Res" system, a front-end reservations
software program designed to increase productivity and decrease call handling
time for its reservation agents. Other technology systems in which TWA has
invested or will likely invest include field sales force automation, weather
recovery, crew scheduling and revenue accounting.
 
     Cost and Efficiency Initiatives
 
     Management believes that achieving and maintaining a low cost structure is
crucial to the Company's business strategy. Although the Company has
significantly reduced its costs of operations over the last two years,
management believes further cost reductions are both achievable and necessary to
ensure the Company's long-term profitability. In 1995, TWA's airline operating
cost per ASM was 8.28c, which the Company believes is below the average for the
six largest U.S. carriers. The Company intends to continue to pursue, among
other things, route optimization, increased labor efficiencies, fleet
modernization and rationalization, and investment in technological advances in
order to improve operating results. In addition, the Company is undertaking
limited increases to seating density across TWA's aircraft fleet to bring its
seating density closer to industry standards. This reconfiguration is intended,
however, to retain more legroom in TWA's Comfort Class(R) ("Comfort Class") than
comparable classes of service offered by TWA's major competitors. The Company
has also increased to 11 the number of "banks" of flights operating into its St.
Louis hub (including a night bank) to increase further the utilization of its
aircraft. TWA is also evaluating installation of a new ticketless system and
will be testing the proposed system in six city markets in the second quarter of
1996. In addition, TWA will continue to explore other opportunities to reduce
costs and improve efficiency in the areas of aircraft maintenance, airport
operations, purchasing, food service, cargo delivery operations and
administrative functions.
 
     Management believes that successful implementation of its financial
restructuring initiatives and strategic operational initiatives should position
the Company to compete successfully in the highly competitive airline industry
by becoming one of the lowest-cost operators among full-service domestic
carriers. However, there can be no assurance that TWA will be successful in
implementing all of these initiatives or that they will provide the desired
benefits. Successful implementation of many of these initiatives may be affected
by events and conditions outside management's control.

     Management Changes
 
     On March 28, 1994, the Board of Directors elected Jeffrey H. Erickson to
the post of President and Chief Operating Officer. Also on March 28, 1994, Mr.
Erickson was appointed to TWA's Board of Directors pursuant to the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws, filling one of two then current
vacancies. Mr. Erickson's employment and directorship commenced on April 5,
1994. In August 1994, Mr. Erickson was elected as Chief Executive Officer with
Mr. Donald F. Craib, then Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of
Directors, continuing as Chairman. The Board of Directors has completed the
installation of a new senior management team with the election of Richard P.
Magurno as Senior Vice President and General Counsel and Scott Gibson as Vice
President -- Market Planning in May 1994, Mark J. Coleman as Senior Vice
President -- Marketing in July 1994, Robert A. Peiser as Executive Vice
President -- Finance and Chief Financial Officer in August 1994 and Don Monteath
as Senior Vice President -- Operations in February 1995.
 
     At the regular meeting of the Board of Directors in September 1994, Jewel
Lafontant-Mankarious and John C. Cahill were appointed as directors to fill the
vacancies created by the earlier resignations of Messrs. Glenn R. Zander and
Robert H. H. Wilson. Mr. Cahill's appointment was effective as of September 20,
1994 and the appointment of Ms. Lafontant-Mankarious was effective as of October
4, 1994. Mr. Craib resigned as Chairman of the Board and director on February
28, 1995 with Mr. Cahill being elected as Chairman effective that date. At the
regular meeting of the Board of Directors on March 21, 1995, Thomas H. Jacobsen
was appointed as director to fill the vacancy created by the earlier resignation
of Mr. Craib.
 
     Due to the illness of Mr. Cahill, Thomas F. Meagher was authorized to
assume the position of Chairman on October 24, 1995. The Company regrets
reporting the death of Mr. Cahill on November 4, 1995. Mr. Meagher was elected
Chairman on November 14, 1995.
 
     Victoria L. Frankovich resigned as a member of the Board of Directors
effective January 1, 1996. At the regular meeting of the Board of Directors on
January 23, 1996, William M. Hoffman was appointed as director to fill the
vacancy created by the earlier resignation of Ms. Frankovich. At the regular
meeting of the Board of Directors on March 19, 1996, John W. Bachmann was
appointed as director, effective April 1, 1996, to fill the vacancy created by
the death of Mr. Cahill.
 
LINES OF BUSINESS -- INDUSTRY SEGMENTS
 
     See Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
OPERATIONS
 
     TWA's airline passenger business is its chief source of revenue. TWA also
carries cargo (mail and freight) on its domestic and international systems. In
addition, TWA provides contract maintenance services for a number of companies,
principally airlines. Historically, TWA's airline operations have followed a
seasonal pattern with the second and third quarters of the calendar year
producing substantially better operating results than the first and fourth
quarters.
 
     North American Route Structure
 
     TWA's North American operations have a hub-and-spoke structure, with a
primarily domestic hub at St. Louis and a domestic-international hub at JFK. The
North American system serves 35 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico,
Mexico, and the Caribbean. The JFK and St. Louis hub systems are designed to
allow TWA to support both its North American and transatlantic connecting
flights. In 1995, TWA's North American revenues accounted for approximately 79%
of its total revenues.
 
     St. Louis. TWA is the predominant carrier at St. Louis, with approximately
350 scheduled daily departures serving 76 cities. In 1995, TWA had approximately
a 71% share of airline passenger enplanements in St. Louis, while the next
largest competitor enplaned approximately 15%. During 1995, TWA added service
from its St. Louis hub to Jackson, Mississippi; Reno, Nevada; Memphis,
Tennessee; Knoxville, Tennessee; Mexico City, Cancun, Puerto Vallarta and
Ixtapa/Zihuatenejo, Mexico; and Montego Bay, Jamaica. In addition, the U.S.
Department of Transportation (the "DOT") made a preliminary award to TWA of a
St.
 
                                        5
<PAGE>   7
 
Louis-Toronto route on February 23, 1996. TWA intends to commence operations in
this market by May 1, 1996.
 
     JFK. TWA serves 32 cities from its JFK hub, with approximately 54 daily
departures. JFK, which is the 8th largest origination/destination hub in the
United States, is both the Company's and the industry's largest international
gateway from North America. The Company offers non-stop flights from JFK to 11
cities in Europe and the Middle East as well as 21 destinations in the U.S. and
the Caribbean. During 1995, TWA added service from its JFK hub to Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania and Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.
 
     Commuter Feed. TWA outsources to Trans States Airlines, Inc. ("Trans
States") operation of its commuter feed into the Company's hubs at St. Louis
and, as of November 1995, JFK. Trans States, an independently owned regional
commuter carrier, currently operates approximately 166 daily flights into St.
Louis and 47 flights into JFK. Trans States' operations are coordinated to feed
TWA's North American and international flights. Management believes that these
commuter operations are an important source of traffic into the Company's
domestic and international route networks. The Company entered into an agreement
with Trans States to provide JFK feeder service after announcing on September 5,
1995 that the operations of TWE would be discontinued on November 6, 1995.
 
     International Route Structure
 
     TWA's international operations consist of both nonstop and through service
from JFK, Boston and St. Louis to destinations in Europe and the Middle East.
TWA's international operations are concentrated at JFK, where TWA has built a
hub system designed to provide domestic traffic feed for its transatlantic
service. International cities served include Athens, Barcelona, Cairo,
Frankfurt, Lisbon, Madrid, Milan, Riyadh, Rome and Tel Aviv from JFK; Paris from
JFK, Boston and St. Louis; and London-Gatwick from St. Louis. In 1995, TWA's
international revenues accounted for approximately 21% of total revenues.
 
     Competition
 
     Since the passage of the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978, the airline
industry has been characterized by intense competition, consolidation of
existing carriers and the advent of numerous low-cost low-fare new entrants. A
number of airlines have filed for bankruptcy and/or ceased operations. In
addition, several carriers have introduced or announced plans to introduce
low-cost, short-haul service, which may result in increased competition to TWA.
Airlines offer discount fares, a wide range of schedules, frequent flyer mileage
programs and ground and in-flight services as competitive tools to attract
passengers and increase market share. Intense price competition has accelerated
the efforts of airline managements to reduce costs and improve productivity in
order to withstand greater levels of discounting. TWA's services are subject to
varying degrees of competition, depending in part on whether such services are
operated over domestic or international routes. Because of the relative ease
with which U.S. carriers can enter new markets, TWA's domestic services are
subject to increases or decreases in competition from other air carriers.
Changes in intensity of competition in the deregulated domestic environment
cannot be predicted.
 
     The level of competition in international markets is normally governed by
the terms of bilateral agreements between the U.S. and the foreign countries
involved. Many of the bilateral agreements permit an unlimited number of
carriers to operate between the U.S. and the foreign country. Competition in
some international markets is limited to a specified number of carriers and
flights on a given route by the terms of the air transport agreements between
the U.S. and the foreign country.
 
     The airline industry is subject to substantial price competition as U.S.
airlines are free to determine domestic pricing policies without government
regulation. While the DOT retains authority over international fares, which are
also subject to the jurisdiction of the governments of the foreign countries
being served, the Company generally has substantial discretion with respect to
its international pricing policies.
 
     While DOT authority is now required before any person may operate as an air
carrier within or to and from the U.S., the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978 and
the International Air Transportation Competition Act of 1979 substantially
decreased previous governmental restrictions in this area. In the case of
domestic operations, any person who is found to be fit, willing and able may
operate as an air carrier between any two
 
                                        6

points in the U.S. Thus, TWA is able to enter new routes or suspend existing
routes within the U.S. without seeking regulatory approval, and other airlines
are similarly free to enter or leave TWA's domestic markets.
 
     Fuel Cost and Availability
 
     TWA's worldwide aircraft fuel requirements are met by in excess of twenty
different suppliers. The Company has contracts with some of these suppliers, the
terms of which vary as to price, payment terms, quantities and duration. The
Company also makes incremental purchases of fuel based on price and
availability. To assure adequate supplies of jet fuel and to provide a measure
of control over price, the Company trades fuel, ships fuel and maintains fuel
storage facilities to support key locations. Petroleum product prices, including
jet fuel, are primarily driven by crude oil costs. The market's alternate uses
of crude oil to produce petroleum products other than jet fuel (e.g., heating
oil and gasoline) as well as the adequacy of refining capacity and other supply
constraints affect the price and availability of jet fuel. Changes in the price
or availability of fuel could materially affect the financial results of the
Company. See "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations -- Results of Operations."
 
     The following table details TWA's fuel consumption and costs for the three
years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993:

</TABLE>
 
     In August 1993, the United States increased taxes on fuel, including
aircraft fuel, by 4.3c per gallon. Airlines were exempted from this tax increase
until October 1995. Pending legislation in Congress would continue the exemption
through September 30, 1997, subject to termination of the exemption on September
30, 1996 if excise taxes relating to certain aviation trust funds are not
extended. These excise taxes expired on December 31, 1995 and had not, as of
March 18, 1996, been extended. There can be no assurance that the continuation
of the fuel tax exemption will be enacted, or of the terms under and the period
for which the exemption will, if enacted, be effective. The additional fuel tax
is currently being collected. The expiration of the exemption in October
increased the Company's fourth quarter 1995 operating expenses by approximately
$7 million. Based on TWA's 1995 fuel consumption levels, non-extension of the
fuel tax exemption would increase the Company's future annual operating expenses
by an estimated $28 million.
 
     Additional Capital Requirements
 
     For a discussion of certain additional capital requirements relevant to the
Company's business, see "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -- Capital Resources."
 
     Travel Agents' Commissions
 
     Consistent with most other airlines, tickets sold for travel on TWA are
sold by travel agents as well as directly by the Company. During 1995,
approximately 78% of all tickets sold for travel on TWA were sold by travel
agents. In the domestic market, TWA generally pays travel agent commissions at
the customary rate of 10% on all domestic fares. In February, 1995, following
actions taken by other major carriers, the Company evaluated its travel agent
commission structure, and instituted a cap of $50 and $25 per domestic
round-trip and one-way tickets, respectively. This and similar actions by other
major carriers resulted in litigation by travel agents against such carriers,
including TWA. TWA subsequently settled with the travel agents and eliminated
the cap. See "Item 3. Legal Proceedings." In the international market, TWA pays
11% on
 
                                        7
<PAGE>   9
 
international tickets issued in the U.S. and 9% for tickets issued outside the
U.S. Carriers (including TWA) may also pay additional commissions to travel
agents as incentive for increased volume or other business directed to the
carrier.
 
     Travel Agency Automation
 
     More than 90% of all travel agencies in the U.S. obtain their airline
travel information through access to computer reservation systems ("CRSs").
CRSs, which are typically owned and operated by airlines, are also used by
travel agents to make airline, hotel and car reservations and to issue airline
tickets. In February 1990, the Company, Delta Air Lines and Northwest Airlines
("Northwest") formed WORLDSPAN for the purpose of owning and operating the PARS
CRS, formerly owned by the Company and Northwest, and the DATAS II CRS, formerly
owned by Delta. In 1994, WORLDSPAN completed the process of combining the DATAS
II CRS and PARS CRS systems into a single WORLDSPAN system using the PARS CRS
software as the platform. Affiliates of TWA, Northwest, Delta and ABACUS
Distributions Systems Pte Ltd., a Singapore-based CRS vendor owned by numerous
Asian air carriers, own approximately 25%, 32%, 38% and 5% of WORLDSPAN
respectively. WORLDSPAN is subject to CRS regulations promulgated by the DOT.
 
     Management believes that the distribution of its airline products through
the WORLDSPAN CRS is a key factor to the success of the Company's future
operations. TWA believes that its partial ownership of WORLDSPAN assures it of
such distribution. WORLDSPAN also operates the internal reservations system used
by both TWA and Northwest.
 
     Frequent Flight Bonus Program
 
     TWA initiated its FFB Program in May 1981. Frequent flyer programs like
TWA's FFB Program have been adopted by most major air carriers and are
considered the number one marketing tool for developing brand loyalty among
travelers and accumulating demographic data pertaining to business flyers.
 
     TWA's FFB Program rewards its members with mileage credit for travel on TWA
and for purchasing goods and services offered by various travel and non-travel
related businesses that participate in the FFB Program including other airlines.
Currently, FFB Program members receive mileage credit for airline travel on Air
India, Alaska Airlines, Ladeco Airlines, Philippines Airlines and Trans States.
FFB Program members may also receive mileage credit pursuant to exchange
agreements maintained by TWA with a variety of entities, including hotels, car
rental firms, credit card issuers and long distance telephone service companies.
 
     TWA accounts for its FFB Program under the incremental cost method, whereby
travel awards are valued at the incremental cost of carrying one additional
passenger. Such costs are accrued when FFB Program participants accumulate
sufficient miles to be entitled to claim award certificates. Incremental costs
include unit costs for passenger food, beverages and supplies, fuel,
reservations, communications, liability insurance and denied boarding
compensation expenses expected to be incurred on a per passenger basis. No
profit or overhead margin is included in the accrual for incremental costs. No
liability is recorded for airline, hotel or car rental award certificates that
are to be honored by other parties because there is no cost to TWA for these
awards.
 
     At December 31, 1995, FFB participants had accumulated mileage credits for
approximately 660,752 awards, compared with accumulated mileage credits for
approximately 614,653 awards at December 31, 1994. Because TWA expects that some
award certificates will never be redeemed, the calculations of the accrued
liability for incremental costs at December 1995 and 1994 were based on
approximately 70% and 67%, respectively, of the accumulated credits. Mileage for
FFB participants who have accumulated less than the minimum number of mileage
credits necessary to claim an award is excluded from the calculation of the
accrual. The accrued liability at December 31, 1995 was approximately $19.0
million compared to approximately $17.0 million at December 31, 1994.
 
     TWA's customers redeemed awards for free travel representing approximately
6.0%, 6.3% and 7.4% of TWA's RPMs in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

EMPLOYEES
 
     At December 31, 1995, the Company employed approximately 23,268 full-time
employees. A majority of TWA's employees are represented by labor organizations
according to the respective craft or class in which such employees work. ALPA,
the IAM and IFFA are the three principal unions representing approximately 84%
of the Company's employees.
 
     During 1994, the Company entered into the '94 Labor Agreements with ALPA,
IAM and IFFA amending then existing labor agreements with each such union to,
among other things, (i) eliminate certain raises scheduled to take effect in
1994 and 1995, thereby continuing certain wage and benefit concessions
previously granted to the Company pursuant to three-year concession agreements,
which were effective September 1, 1992, between the Company and its unions (the
"'92 Labor Agreements"), (ii) modify existing work rules and benefit packages,
and (iii) eliminate contractual "snapback" provisions contained therein which
would have automatically restored wages to pre-concessionary levels for purposes
of future contract negotiations. In addition, the Company implemented a number
of similar savings initiatives with respect to domestic non-union and management
employees, primarily through reducing headcount, altering benefit packages, and
eliminating certain planned restorations of previous wage concessions.
 
     In exchange for the substantial cost savings realizable by the Company as a
result of the foregoing, as described in more detail below, TWA has (i) agreed
to certain wage increases and productivity payments to its employees, (ii)
issued certain equity securities of the Company to its employees, (iii) agreed
to make certain future grants of equity securities and to permit such employees
an opportunity to purchase certain additional securities at a discount, and (iv)
effected certain amendments to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and
By-laws with respect to the election of certain directors and director voting
requirements in the event of certain specified corporate actions.
 
     As part of the '94 Labor Agreements, TWA agreed with its unionized
employees to a series of semi-annual 1% wage increases commencing in May 1995
and continuing through August 31, 1997 (the last such wage increase to equal 3%
in the case of employees represented by ALPA and IFFA, while in the case of the
IAM there is to be a 1% wage increase plus a 2% contribution to the IAM "B
Plan."). In addition to such scheduled wage increases, TWA agreed to make
certain annual productivity payments to its unionized employees in the event the
Company achieves certain operating profit goals set forth in the agreement. If
the Company achieves such goals (established at various levels between $50
million and $200 million annually), employees will receive productivity payments
in an amount to be determined based upon a sliding scale from 1% to 4% of
employees' W-2 wages. Any productivity payments resulting from 1996 operations
are required to be converted into wage increases. Similarly, the Company
implemented comparable wage increases and productivity incentives to its
non-union (including management) employees.
 
     On August 23, 1995 (the "'95 Effective Date"), TWA issued to certain trusts
established for the benefit of its unionized employees shares of a special class
of voting preferred stock (the "Employee Preferred Stock") with such stock being
issued in three separate series designated the ALPA Preferred Stock, the IAM
Preferred Stock and the IFFA Preferred Stock. Except for certain rights with
respect to the election of directors, the Employee Preferred Stock has rights
substantially identical to the Company's Common Stock, $.01 par value per share
(the "Common Stock"). TWA also issued an aggregate of 1,026,694 shares of Common
Stock to a trust established for the benefit of TWA's non-unionized employees.
The value of shares issued to the Company's non-union employees was intended to
reflect the estimated value to the Company of the concessions granted by
non-union employees. The equity securities issued on the '95 Effective Date
resulted in the employees of the Company initially owning approximately 30% of
the then outstanding Common Stock and Common Stock equivalents of the Company.
 
     In recognition of the fact that as a result of the '95 Reorganization, the
percentage of the Company's stock owned by the Company's employees was
substantially reduced, the Company adopted as of the '95 Effective Date the ESIP
pursuant to which the Company would commencing in 1997 grant to certain trusts
established for the benefit of its union and non-union employees certain
additional shares of Common Stock and Employee Preferred Stock. Under the ESIP,
in any year in which the market price of the Common Stock exceeds certain target
prices, the Company has agreed to issue shares in amounts sufficient to increase
the
 
                                        9
<PAGE>   11
 
aggregate percentage ownership of the employees by the following percentages of
the then outstanding shares of Common Stock and Common Stock equivalents: 2.0%
(1997), 1.5% (1998), 1.5% (1999), 1.0% (2000), 1.0% (2001) and 1.0% (2002). The
ESIP also grants to the employee trusts a right to purchase, on a quarterly
basis, additional shares ("Stock Purchase Shares") in amounts of up to an
aggregate of 2% of the then outstanding Common Stock and Employee Preferred
Stock. Stock Purchase Shares may be purchased at 80% of the then market value of
the Common Stock. In the event of a merger, consolidation or sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company, the ESIP provides for certain
limited acceleration rights with respect to the stock grants and employee stock
purchase arrangements. In addition to the scheduled grants and purchase rights
described above, the ESIP provides for the Company to accelerate grants to be
made in 2001 and 2002, if the Company issues additional Common Stock at a price
equal to or in excess of $11 per share which results in aggregate proceeds to
the Company in excess of $20 million.
 
     In addition to certain amendments required to effect the recapitalization
of the Company, on the '95 Effective Date, TWA further amended its Certificate
of Incorporation and By-laws to (i) permit certain employees represented by
ALPA, IAM and IFFA to elect four of the Company's 15 directors (the "Employee
Directors"), and (ii) provide that certain extraordinary corporate actions,
including mergers, sales of all or substantially all of the Company's assets or
certain routes or any filing seeking protection under the bankruptcy laws, must
be approved by at least six directors, including each of the Employee Directors.
 
REGULATORY MATTERS
 
Slot Restrictions
 
     The Company's ability to increase its level of operations at certain
domestic cities currently served is affected by the number of slots available
for takeoffs and landings. At JFK, Chicago's O'Hare International Airport, New
York's LaGuardia Airport and Washington National, which have been designated
"High Density Airports" by the FAA, there are restrictions on the number of
aircraft that may land and take off during peak hours. In the future, these
take-off and landing time slot restrictions and other restrictions on the use of
various airports and their facilities may result in further curtailment of
services by, and increased operating costs for, individual airlines, including
TWA, particularly in light of the increase in the number of airlines operating
at such airports. On April 1, 1986, the FAA implemented a final rule relating to
allocated slots at the High Density Airports. This rule, as since amended,
contains provisions requiring the relinquishment of slots for nonuse and permits
carriers, under certain circumstances, to sell, lease or trade their slots to
other carriers. TWA does not anticipate losing any slots as a result of these
rules. The higher use rates required by these rules, however, increase the risk
that TWA may lose slots in the future because of nonuse and decreases TWA's
ability to adjust its flight schedules at the High Density Airports.
 
     Control over International Routes
 
     TWA's international certificates are granted by the DOT for indefinite or
fixed-term periods, depending on the route. TWA is authorized to provide
transatlantic service from major cities in the U.S. to points in Europe, North
Africa, the Middle East and Asia. Some of these authorized routes are not
currently served by TWA. Many of the European markets served by TWA are "limited
entry" markets in which, as a result of agreements between the United States and
foreign governments, TWA has traditionally competed with a limited number of
other carriers. During the past several years, however, the U.S. government has
encouraged competition in international markets and entered into bilateral
agreements with various foreign governments that provide for expanded exchanges
of routes and traffic rights, reduction of governmental controls over fares and
avoidance of limits on capacity and charter services. Competition in
international markets has increased dramatically over the past several years as
major U.S. carriers have initiated and/or continued to expand their
international operations. Foreign flag carriers have continued to expand service
and the DOT has indicated its support for further expansion of opportunities of
foreign carriers to serve new points in the U.S. For example, in September 1993,
the U.S. and Germany signed an interim bilateral aviation agreement which in
effect froze capacity in Germany for a period of four years. The U.S. and
Germany recently announced agreement on a new, more liberal "open skies"
bilateral aviation agreement. It is expected that the new agreement will come
into effect during 1996 and lead to, among other things, additional competition
on TWA's routes to Frankfurt.
 
                                       10
<PAGE>   12
 
No assurance can be given that TWA will continue to have the advantage of all
the "limited entry" markets in which it currently operates or that additional
carriers will not be permitted to operate in one or more of these markets or
that TWA in general will not face substantial unexpected competition.
Competition in the international market is further complicated by the fact that
pricing levels on some transatlantic routes are influenced by subsidies that
certain foreign carriers receive from their governments and by the presence of
smaller, low-cost carriers.
 
     Certain portions of TWA's transatlantic route authority have been granted
on a fixed-term basis. TWA's right to carry local traffic between London and
Frankfurt expired in April 1994. In addition, on May 4, 1993, the bilateral air
transport agreement between the U.S. and France lapsed. Absent a bilateral
agreement, the U.S. and France are operating on a system of comity and
reciprocity. Under this regime, carriers are permitted to maintain historical
levels of service, but few or no new services are permitted. Cessation of
service to any authorized markets from France may cause such underlying
authority to terminate. Any reduction in U.S. carrier access to France could
have an adverse impact on TWA's transatlantic operations. TWA's route authority
between St. Louis and London-Gatwick has expired. TWA has applied for renewal of
its St. Louis-Gatwick authority and continues to operate such route pending a
determination of its application. While no assurance can be given, TWA believes
that the St. Louis-Gatwick authority will be renewed.
 
     The operations of TWA's international system will require continued
approval by the U.S. government as well as permission or authorization from the
governments of the respective countries served and compliance with the laws and
regulations of those countries. These authorizations, permits and rights vary
considerably in their terms, particularly as to the imposition of restrictive
conditions on U.S. airlines.
 
     Other DOT/FAA Regulations
 
     The DOT has the authority to regulate competitive practices, advertising
and other consumer protection matters such as on-time performance, smoking
policies, denied boarding, baggage liability and CRSs provided to travel agents.
With respect to foreign air transportation, the DOT may approve agreements
between air carriers and grant antitrust immunity to those agreements. The DOT
must also approve the transfer between U.S. carriers of international route
certificates. The Department of Justice has the authority to approve mergers and
interlocking relationships.
 
     Noise Abatement
 
     The Noise Act provides for a reduction in aircraft noise levels by
commercial aircraft. Under the Noise Act, air carriers were permitted to elect
to comply with the transitional requirements of the Noise Act at December 31,
1994, either by (i) phasing out, or retrofitting with noise abatement equipment,
certain older aircraft known as Stage 2, or (ii) phasing in quieter aircraft,
known as Stage 3. Air carriers who elected to comply by phasing out or
retrofitting Stage 2 aircraft were required to phase out or retrofit at least
25% of a specified 1990 base level of such aircraft by December 31, 1994. TWA
elected to comply with the final Noise Act requirements by adopting the Stage 2
aircraft phase out/retrofit option, and had reduced its specified base level of
Stage 2 aircraft by 25% at December 31, 1994. To comply with the 1996
requirement, the Company plans to retrofit, by means of engine hush-kits, 28 of
its DC-9 aircraft. The aggregate cost of these hush-kits is estimated to
approximate $49 million. The Company is exploring various financing options to
fund the majority of such expenditure, including an extension of the current
leases at increased rental rates to finance the expenditure. The Company will be
required to reduce its specified base level of Stage 2 aircraft by at least 50%
by December 31, 1996, 75% by December 31, 1998 and 100% by December 31, 1999.
 
     As of December 31, 1995, 87, approximately 46% of TWA's aircraft, met the
Stage 3 standards. TWA's ability to comply with the federal requirements within
the time specified, or with more restrictive local noise restrictions, by
acquiring newer aircraft and by phasing out or retrofitting older aircraft that
are not in compliance with the Stage 3 standards, will depend upon its ongoing
financial condition, its ability to renegotiate existing leases for such
aircraft and its ability to obtain financing to acquire the requisite number of
Stage 3 aircraft or retrofit kits. Although TWA has a plan to meet the federal
requirements, and has already acquired a number of Stage 3 aircraft while
phasing out several Stage 2 aircraft, there can be no assurance that TWA will be
able to satisfy all applicable noise level requirements.
 
                                       11
<PAGE>   13
 
     Numerous airports have imposed restrictions such as curfews, airplane noise
levels, mandatory flight paths and runway restrictions, which limit the ability
of TWA and other carriers to increase services at such airports. Other
jurisdictions are considering similar measures. While the Company has
historically had the flexibility to schedule around these restrictions, there
can be no assurance that the Company will continue to be able to work around
these restrictions. The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey is considering
a phaseout of Stage 2 aircraft on a more accelerated basis than that of the FAA
requirement, a prohibition on additional Stage 2 flights and an expanded
nighttime curfew. The FAA and air carriers, including TWA, have stated their
opposition to these proposals. At this time, TWA cannot predict whether the
proposals will be implemented or, if so, the timing or effect on TWA of any such
implementation, which would depend on the extent to which TWA's aircraft then
being used in the affected airports meet the Stage 3 requirements as well as the
timing of TWA's flights.
 
     Labor
 
     The Railway Labor Act (the "RLA") governs the labor relations of employers
and employees engaged in the airline industry. Comprehensive provisions are set
forth in the RLA establishing the right of airline employees to organize and
bargain collectively along craft or class lines and imposing a duty on air
carriers and their employees to exert every reasonable effort to make and
maintain collective bargaining agreements. The RLA contains detailed procedures
which must be exhausted before a lawful work stoppage can occur. Pursuant to the
RLA, TWA has collective bargaining agreements with five domestic unions
representing five separate employee groups.
 
     Aging Aircraft Maintenance
 
     The FAA issued several Airworthiness Directives ("ADs") in 1990 mandating
changes to maintenance programs for older aircraft to ensure that the oldest
portion of the nation's fleet remains airworthy. The FAA required that these
older aircraft undergo extensive structural modifications prior to the later of
the accumulation of a designated number of flight cycles or 1994 deadlines
established by the various ADs. Most of the Company's aircraft are currently
affected by these aging aircraft ADs. The Company monitors its fleet of aircraft
to ensure safety levels which meet or exceed those mandated by the FAA.
 
     In 1994 and 1995, TWA spent approximately $5.7 million and $2.6 million,
respectively, to comply with aging aircraft maintenance requirements. Based on
information currently available to TWA and its current fleet plan, TWA estimates
that costs associated with complying with these aging aircraft maintenance
requirements will aggregate approximately $15.6 million through 2000. These cost
estimates assume, among other things, that newer aircraft will replace certain
of TWA's existing aircraft and as a result the average age of TWA's fleet will
be significantly reduced. There can be no assurance that TWA will be able to
implement fully its fleet plan.
 
     Safety
 
     TWA is subject to FAA jurisdiction with respect to aircraft maintenance and
operations, including equipment, dispatch, communications, training, flight
personnel and other matters affecting air safety. The FAA has the authority to
issue new or additional regulations. To ensure compliance with its regulations,
the FAA requires the Company to obtain operating, airworthiness and other
certificates which are subject to suspensions or revocation for cause. In
addition, a combination of FAA and Occupational Safety and Health Administrative
regulations on both federal and state levels apply to all of TWA's ground-based
operations.
 
     Passenger Facilities Charges.
 
     During 1990, Congress enacted legislation to permit airport authorities,
with prior approval from the FAA, to impose passenger facility charges ("PFCs")
as a means of funding local airport projects. These charges, which are intended
to be collected by the airlines from their passengers and remitted to the
airports, are limited to $3.00 per enplanement and to no more than $12.00 per
round trip. As a result of competitive pressure, the Company and other airlines
have been limited in their abilities to pass on the cost of the PFCs to
passengers through fare increases.
 
                                       12
<PAGE>   14
 
     Environmental
 
     The Company is subject to regulation under major environmental laws
administered by state and federal agencies, including the Clean Air Act, the
Clean Water Act, the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and
Liability Act of 1980 and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. In some
locations there are also county and sanitary sewer district agencies which
regulate the Company. The Company believes that it is in substantial compliance
with applicable environmental regulations, See "Item 3. -- Legal Proceedings."
 
     Foreign Ownership of Shares
 
     The Federal Aviation Act of 1958 generally prohibits non-U.S. citizens from
owning more than 25% of the voting interest in U.S. air carriers, including the
Company.
 
CORPORATE REORGANIZATIONS
 
Background
 
     During the early 1990s, the U.S. airline industry, including the Company,
experienced unprecedented losses, which were largely attributable to, among
other things, the Persian Gulf War (which caused a substantial increase in fuel
costs and reduction in travel demand due to concerns over terrorism), recessions
in the United States and Europe, and significant industry-wide fare discounting
resulting from another U.S. airline's attempt to introduce a new pricing
structure into the domestic airline business. In addition, TWA had incurred
significant debt as a result of the leveraged acquisition in 1986 of a
controlling interest in the Company by Mr. Carl C. Icahn. The substantial losses
sustained by the Company during this period, coupled with the Company's
excessive debt obligations, made it necessary for TWA to restructure its debt
obligations and equity, lower its labor costs and severely reduce its capital
outlays.
 
  '93 Reorganization
 
     On November 3, 1993 TWA emerged from the '93 Reorganization. During the
pendency of the '93 Reorganization, the Company (i) negotiated, effective
September 1, 1992, the '92 Labor Agreements providing for, among other things, a
15% reduction in wages and benefits and certain work-rule concessions designed
to reduce costs substantially, (ii) obtained confirmation of a reorganization
plan which eliminated more than $1 billion of debt and lease obligations, and
(iii) reached a settlement with the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (the
"PBGC") with respect to the Company's underfunded pension plan obligations.
During the pendency of the '93 Reorganization, Mr. Icahn and certain of his
affiliates (the "Icahn Entities") released their claims against and interests in
TWA and Mr. Icahn resigned as Chairman of the Board of Directors and as an
officer of TWA. The Icahn Entities also agreed to provide up to $200 million of
financing to TWA secured by receivables and flight equipment in connection with
the '93 Reorganization (the "Icahn Loans").
 
     '95 Reorganization
 
     Notwithstanding the reduction in levels of debt and obligations achieved
through the '93 Reorganization, the Company emerged from the '93 Reorganization
in a too highly leveraged position and, despite progress in increasing revenues
and reducing costs, continued to experience significant operating losses. With
the hiring of a new management team in 1994, the assumptions underlying the
Company's operating plans, upon which its ability to service its post '93
Reorganization obligations depended, were recognized as unrealistic and
unachievable. As a consequence, during 1995 the Company proposed and consummated
a financial restructuring in order to reduce or satisfy certain of the Company's
then current and future financial obligations.
 
     In the second quarter of 1995, the Company solicited and received
sufficient acceptances to effect a proposed "prepackaged" plan of bankruptcy.
Therefore, on June 30, 1995, the Company filed the '95 Reorganization, which
with certain modifications was confirmed by the United States Bankruptcy Court
in St. Louis on August 4, 1995. On the '95 Effective Date, approximately eight
weeks after filing the prepackaged
 
                                       13
<PAGE>   15
 
Chapter 11 plan, the '95 Reorganization became effective and the Company emerged
from the protection of this second Chapter 11 proceeding. In connection with the
'95 Reorganization, the Company (i) exchanged certain of its then outstanding
debt securities for a combination of newly issued 12% Preferred Stock, Common
Stock, warrants and rights to purchase Common Stock, and debt securities, (ii)
converted its then outstanding preferred stock to shares of Common Stock,
warrants and rights to purchase Common Stock, (iii) obtained certain short-term
lease payment and conditional sale indebtedness deferrals amounting to
approximately $91 million and other modifications to certain aircraft leases;
and (iv) obtained an extension of the term of the approximately $190 million
principal amount of the Icahn Loans. The Company also (i) effected a reverse
stock split of its then outstanding common stock and exchanged such shares for
Common Stock; (ii) raised approximately $52 million through an equity rights
offering; (iii) distributed certain warrants to its then current equity holders;
and (iv) implemented certain amendments to the Certificate of Incorporation
relating to the recapitalization and various corporate governance matters.
Pursuant to the '95 Reorganization, the Company, among other things, eliminated
additional debt approximating $500 million (approximately $300 million book
value). New labor agreements were reached in the second half of 1994, providing
for the continuance of wage concessions previously granted and work rule
modifications with respect to the Company's union employees, and certain
corresponding cost savings were also implemented with respect to the Company's
non-union employees. Pursuant to the '95 Reorganization, the Company issued the
Employee Preferred Stock to its union employees and Common Stock to its
non-union employees, which resulted in the union and non-union employees
achieving an ownership of approximately 30% of the voting equity of the Company
as of the '95 Effective Date.
 
     In connection with and as a precondition to the '95 Reorganization, in
August and September of 1994, the Company entered into the '94 Labor Agreements,
amending existing collective bargaining agreements, with the IAM, ALPA, and
IFFA, the three labor unions representing approximately 84% of the Company's
employees. The '94 Labor Agreements provided for an extension of certain
previously agreed wage concessions, modifications to work rules and the deletion
of certain provisions of the then existing labor agreements, including
elimination of so-called snapbacks, i.e., the automatic restoration of wage
reductions granted in such agreements at the end of their term to levels that
prevailed prior to the concessionary agreement. During 1994 and 1995, the
Company also implemented a number of similar cost savings initiatives with
respect to domestic non-union and management employees, primarily through
reducing head count, altering benefit packages, and continuing wage reductions
which had been scheduled to expire. See "-- Employees."

FLIGHT EQUIPMENT
 
     As of December 31, 1995, TWA's operating fleet consisted of 188 aircraft,
of which 49 were owned by TWA and 139 were leased. All aircraft in use are
maintained in airworthy condition in accordance with procedures approved by the
FAA. The operating aircraft owned by and leased to TWA as of December 31, 1995
are listed below.

     Beginning in 1996, the Company intends to replace its remaining fifteen
L-1011 aircraft with newer and more efficient Boeing 757. In February 1996, TWA
executed definitive agreements providing for the lease of up to 10 new Boeing
757 aircraft from a major operating lessor to be delivered in 1996 and 1997 and
the purchase of 10 new Boeing 757 aircraft from the manufacturer with deliveries
scheduled to commence in February 1997. The Company also acquired the right,
subject to certain conditions, to purchase up to 20 additional Boeing 757
aircraft from the manufacturer.
 
     In addition to leasing three new MD-83 aircraft in the late summer and fall
of 1995 for initial nine year lease terms, the Company has agreed to lease two
additional used MD-83 aircraft also for nine year terms, with leases expected to
commence in April 1996. Aggregate annual rentals for these five aircraft will
approximate $14 million.
 
REAL PROPERTY
 
     TWA utilizes or has rights to utilize airport and terminal facilities
located in or near the cities it serves under lease agreements or other
arrangements with the governmental authorities exercising control over such
facilities.
 
     At St. Louis, TWA has preferential use rights to 57 gates and 40 ticket
counter positions, and ramp, baggage and other supporting ground facility space.
TWA's domestic-international hub at JFK operates out of two passenger terminal
facilities (Terminals A and B). TWA is the lessee at JFK of a total of 27 gates,
102 ticket counter positions, and ramp, baggage and other supporting ground
facility space. TWA occupies both Terminal A and Terminal B as a holdover tenant
pursuant to expired agreements of lease with the Port Authority of New York and
New Jersey (the "Port Authority"). Such holdover tenancies are with the consent
of the Port Authority pursuant to a Term Sheet dated August 12, 1993 (the "Term
Sheet"), which extended
 
                                       15
<PAGE>   17
 
TWA's right to occupy Terminals A and B, provided TWA paid the rent set forth in
the Term Sheet, made certain specified financed improvements to Terminals A and
B, and was otherwise in compliance with the expired leases. On February 8, 1996,
the Port Authority's Board of Commissioners adopted a resolution authorizing the
Port Authority to enter into a new five year lease with TWA for both Terminals A
and B for a term expiring on March 31, 2001.
 
     TWA's overhaul base is located on approximately 250 acres of leased
property at the Kansas City International Airport, Kansas City, Missouri. The
overhaul base is TWA's principal maintenance base where TWA performs major
maintenance and repair services for its aircraft fleet. The overhaul base is
owned by the City of Kansas City, Missouri and leased to TWA along with other
facilities until May 31, 2000. TWA leases office space and other facilities in a
number of locations in the U.S. and abroad. In December 1993, pursuant to a
sale/leaseback with the City of St. Louis, TWA leased a two-story ground
operations building near the St. Louis Airport and an adjacent 165,000 square
foot, five-story flight training facility. The lease of these properties is
covered under a month-to-month agreement subject to automatic renewal so long as
TWA is not in default thereunder, such agreement having a term otherwise
expiring December 31, 2005. Such term is subject to early termination in the
event of certain events of default, including non-payment of rents, cessation of
service, failure to maintain corporate headquarters within the City or County of
St. Louis or failure to maintain a reservations office within the City of St.
Louis. For a description of certain environmental corrective actions that TWA
anticipates will be required at the Overhaul Base, see "Item 3. Legal
Proceedings -- Other Actions."
 
     TWA's corporate headquarters are located at One City Centre, 515 N. Sixth
Street, St. Louis, Missouri where TWA has subleased approximately 56,700 square
feet through February 28, 1997. Additionally, during 1994, TWA relocated its St.
Louis area reservation facility and customer relations department within the
City of St. Louis, Missouri.
 
ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
REORGANIZATION PROCEEDINGS
 
  The '93 Reorganization
 
     The '93 Reorganization began on January 31, 1992, with the filing by TWA in
the United States Bankruptcy Court in Delaware of a voluntary petition for
relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. On August 12,
1993, the bankruptcy court confirmed the Company's '93 Reorganization plan,
which became effective on November 3, 1993. On June 21, 1995, the bankruptcy
court found that the bankruptcy estate had been fully administered and entered a
final decree closing the '93 Reorganization.
 
     All claims that were before the bankruptcy court in the '93 Reorganization
have been resolved, except for certain claims which are being resolved in
non-bankruptcy forums. Some such claims, when resolved, may result in
distributions being made, in the case of administrative expense claims, in cash,
and in the case of all other claims, in securities and other property held in a
disputed claims reserve established in accordance with the '93 Reorganization
plan. All such unresolved claims which do not constitute administrative claims,
if and to the extent allowed upon final resolution, will be satisfied solely out
of securities and other property in the applicable disputed claims reserve. The
unresolved claims which constitute administrative expense claims are for
postpetition expenses for, among other things, aircraft return condition, unpaid
rent and professional fees. TWA has accrued amounts it believes will be adequate
to satisfy such claims.
 
     The '95 Reorganization
 
     On June 30, 1995, the Company commenced the '95 Reorganization by filing a
voluntary petition for Chapter 11 relief, together with its '95 Reorganization
plan, in the bankruptcy court. As the Company had "prepackaged" the '95
Reorganization by soliciting and obtaining, before the filing of the petition,
the acceptances of all classes of creditors and equity security holders
necessary to achieve confirmation of the '95 Reorganization plan, the Company
was able to proceed promptly to obtain, on August 4, 1995, the entry of an order
by the bankruptcy court approving the Company's solicitation process, and the
adequacy of disclosure
 
                                       16
<PAGE>   18
 
for the '95 Reorganization plan, as modified, and confirming the '95
Reorganization plan, as modified. On August 23, 1995 the '95 Reorganization plan
became effective, and the Company emerged from the protection of the bankruptcy
court. On December 28, 1995, the Bankruptcy Court in St. Louis found that the
bankruptcy estate had been fully administered and entered a final decree closing
the '95 Bankruptcy case.
 
     Pursuant to the '95 Reorganization and related agreements, the Company
eliminated approximately $500 million (approximately $300 million book amount)
of indebtedness and lease obligations and canceled outstanding equity securities
in exchange for new securities and other consideration, and on the '95 Effective
Date issued (i) approximately 17.2 million shares of Common Stock, (ii)
approximately 6.4 million shares of Employee Preferred Stock, (iii) equity
rights for the purchase of approximately 13.2 million shares of Common Stock,
(iv) warrants for the purchase of approximately 1.7 million shares of Common
Stock (exercisable over a seven year period at $14.40 per share), (v) warrants
for the purchase of up to 1.15 million shares of Common Stock for nominal
consideration, (vi) $170 million in principal amount of the Company's 12% Senior
Secured Reset Notes due 1997, (vii) $244.3 million in principal amount of PBGC
Notes, (viii) $109 million aggregate liquidation value of 12% Preferred Stock,
(ix) $30 million in Ticket Vouchers, and (x) certain contingent payment rights,
which under certain conditions provide for the payment of up to $18 million to
holders. The number of shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the '95
Reorganization were calculated as though a one-for-46.8722 reverse split of the
Company's common stock outstanding prior to the '95 Effective Date had been
effected.
 
     Pursuant to the '95 Reorganization, the Company also adopted an amendment
to the Certificate of Incorporation to (i) increase the Company's total
authorized capital stock to 300 million shares, consisting of 150 million shares
of Common Stock, 12,500,000 shares of the Company's cumulative preferred stock
(which was retired in connection with the '95 Reorganization) and 137,500,000
shares of additional preferred stock; (ii) authorize the issuance of the
Employee Preferred Stock and the 12% Preferred Stock; and (iii) implement
various corporate governance matters. See "Item 5. Market for Registrant's
Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters -- Outstanding Shares and Voting
Rights."
 
OTHER ACTIONS
 
     On March 22, 1993, the United States District Court for the Northern
District of Georgia, Atlanta Division entered into a settlement involving TWA
and eight other major airline defendants and the Airline Tariff Publishing
Company, an airline-owned fare publishing company, ("ATPC") in a class action
lawsuit filed in June 1990 which alleged that the airlines used ATPC to avoid
competition to, from or through some 23 specified hub airports. Under the terms
of the settlement the airline defendants paid approximately $45 million in cash
and issued approximately $396.5 million in discount coupons valid for air travel
on any of the defendant airlines. TWA's share of the settlement included the
payment of $1 million in cash and the issuance of discount coupons in the amount
of $20 million for future travel. The discount coupons issued by TWA and the
other settling defendants are interchangeable. While TWA presently does not have
any reason to expect that the face amount of the discount coupons that will be
redeemed for future travel on TWA will not reasonably approximate the face
amount of discount coupons TWA will contribute to the settlement, it is
reasonably possible that the actual face amount of discount coupons redeemed by
TWA could be substantially different, considering the interchangeability of the
discount coupons.
 
     On May 31, 1988, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") filed an
administrative complaint seeking civil penalties as well as other relief
requiring TWA to take remedial procedures at TWA's maintenance base in Kansas
City, Missouri, alleging violations resulting from TWA's past hazardous waste
disposal and related environmental practices. Simultaneously, TWA became a party
to a consent agreement and a consent order with the EPA pursuant to which TWA
paid a civil penalty of $100,000 and agreed to implement a schedule of remedial
and corrective actions and to perform environmental audits at TWA's major
maintenance facilities. In September 1989, TWA and the EPA signed an
administrative order of consent, which required TWA to conduct extensive
investigations at or near the overhaul base and to recommend remedial action
alternatives. TWA completed its investigations and on February 17, 1996,
submitted a Corrective Measures Study ("CMS") to the Missouri Department of
Natural Resources ("MDNR") and the EPA. It is anticipated that review and
approval of the CMS by the MDNR and EPA will take several months.
 
                                       17
<PAGE>   19
 
Upon approval of the CMS, an additional order will be issued and the required
corrective actions implemented. TWA presently estimates the cost of the
corrective action activities under the existing and anticipated orders to be
approximately $7 million, a majority of which represents costs associated with
long-term groundwater monitoring and maintenance of the remedial systems.
Although the Company believes adequate reserves have been provided for all known
environmental contingencies, it is possible that additional reserves might be
required in the future which could have a material effect on the results of
operations or financial condition of the Company. However, the Company believes
that the ultimate resolution of known environmental contingencies should not
have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of
operations based on the Company's knowledge of similar environmental sites.
 
     On October 22, 1991, judgment in the amount of $12,336,127 was entered
against TWA in an action in the United States District Court for the Southern
District of New York by Travellers International A.G. and its parent company,
Windsor, Inc. (collectively, "Travellers"). The action commenced in 1987, as
subsequently amended, sought damages from TWA in excess of $60 million as a
result of TWA's alleged breach of its contract with Travellers for the planning
and operation of Getaway Vacations. In order to obtain a stay of judgment
pending appeal, TWA posted a cash undertaking of $13,693,101. In connection with
the '93 Reorganization, TWA sought to have the matter ultimately determined by
the Bankruptcy Court . Following prolonged litigation with respect to
jurisdiction, the United States Supreme Court determined that the matter should
be addressed by the bankruptcy court, and in February 1994, the bankruptcy court
determined the matter in a manner favorable to TWA. However, a final order has
not yet been issued and Travellers has appealed the decision of the bankruptcy
court in the matter. Pursuant to the Icahn Loans, amounts received by TWA in
connection with the Travellers litigation would be used to repay, in part,
certain of the Company's obligations to the Icahn Entities.
 
     In February 1995, a number of actions were commenced in various federal
district courts against TWA and six other major airlines, alleging that such
companies conspired and agreed to fix, lower and maintain travel agent
commissions on the sale of tickets for domestic air travel in violation of the
United States and, in certain instances, state, antitrust laws. On May 9, 1995,
TWA announced settlement, subject to court approval, of the referenced actions
and reinstated the traditional 10% commission on domestic air fares. A final
order has not yet been entered; however, an interim order approving the
settlement has been entered. The Company believes the settlement of this case
will have a favorable effect on revenues.
 
     On November 9, 1995, ValuJet Air Lines, Inc. ("ValuJet") instituted a
lawsuit against TWA and Delta Air Lines ("Delta") in the United States District
Court for the Northern District of Georgia, alleging breach of contract and
violations of certain antitrust laws with respect to the Company's lease of
certain takeoff and landing slots at LaGuardia International Airport in New
York. On November 17, 1995, the court denied ValuJet's motion to temporarily
enjoin the lease transaction and the Company and Delta consummated the lease of
the slots. ValuJet has subsequently amended its original complaint and all
parties are undertaking legal discovery with respect to the amended complaint.
The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in this action and believes all
of the allegations contained therein lack merit.
 
     In addition, based on certain written grievances or complaints filed by
ValuJet, the Company has been informed that the United States Department of
Justice, Antitrust Division is investigating the circumstances of the slot lease
transaction to determine whether an antitrust violation has occurred. The
Company is cooperating in this investigation and believes that the slot lease
transaction did not violate any antitrust laws.
 
     On January 10, 1996, a complaint was filed by an individual resident of New
York, Joel Gerber, relating to the slot lease transaction (the "New York
Action"). Mr. Gerber purports to bring the action on his own behalf as well as
on behalf of an unspecified number of purported class members who have traveled
or will travel between LaGuardia and Atlanta as of November 1, 1995 claiming
damages as the result of alleged antitrust violations and conspiracy to commit
same against the Company and Delta. The United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York has not certified the New York Action as a class
action. The Company will vigorously contest all of the class action allegations
as well as all allegations of liability and damages in the New York Action.
 
                                       18
<PAGE>   20
 
     In December 1995, the Company filed a lawsuit in the Circuit Court of St.
Louis County, Missouri against Karabu, Mr. Icahn and affiliated companies
seeking damages and to enjoin further violations with regard to the Ticket
Agreement as referred to in "Item 1. Business -- '95 Reorganization." The
parties negotiated a series of standstill agreements pursuant to which the
Company's lawsuit was withdrawn, while the Company and Mr. Icahn endeavored to
negotiate a settlement of their differences and respective claims. The last
extension of such standstill expired on March 20, 1996. On March 20, 1996 the
Company reinstated its lawsuit against Karabu, Mr. Icahn and affiliated
companies, charging violation of the Ticket Agreement. TWA seeks a declaratory
judgment that Mr. Icahn and his affiliates are in default of the Ticket
Agreement and also seeks unspecified damages as a result of the unauthorized
distribution of TWA tickets through travel agencies to the general public.
 
     On March 20, 1996, Karabu and certain other companies controlled by Mr.
Icahn filed suit against the Company alleging violations by the Company of the
Ticket Agreement and federal anti-trust laws. This is an action brought for
damages in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New
York. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to the claims made in
this action.
 
     The Company is also defending a number of other actions which have either
arisen in the ordinary course of business or are insured or the cumulative
effect of which management of the Company does not believe may reasonably be
expected to be materially adverse.
 
ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
 
     The Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Trans World Airlines, Inc. was held
on November 14, 1995. The following matters were considered and acted upon at
the Annual Meeting:
 
     1. Election of five Class II Directors of the Company for terms ending with
the 1998 Annual Meeting of Stockholders;
 
     2. Approval of the Company's 1994 Key Employee Stock Incentive Plan (the
"KESIP");
 
     3. Approval of amendments to and restatement of the Company's Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation;
 
     4. Approval of the Company's 1995 Outside Directors' Stock Ownership and
Stock Option Plan (the "Directors' Plan"); and
 
     5. Ratification of the appointment of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP as independent

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
 
GENERAL
 
     On August 23, 1995, all of the Company's previously outstanding equity
securities were canceled and certificates with respect thereto thereafter
evidenced only the right to receive Common Stock and the other consideration
specified in the '95 Reorganization. Also pursuant to the '95 Reorganization,
holders of certain debt securities of the Company received shares of Common
Stock. Information regarding the trading price range of pre-'95 Reorganization
common stock is not comparable with data provided for the Common Stock and is
not included herein. For information concerning the '95 Reorganization, see
"Item 1. Business -- Corporate Reorganizations."
 
     The Common Stock is listed for trading on the American Stock Exchange. The
following table sets forth the range of high and low prices for shares of the
Common Stock (as reported in the Wall Street Journal) for the periods indicated:

1996
     First Quarter (January 1 through March 22).................     19.750       9.313
</TABLE>
 
     Since 1978, the Company has not paid any cash dividends on any of its
common stock. The Company currently plans to retain all earnings to finance its
business and to reduce its leverage rather than paying cash dividends on the
Common Stock. Payments of any cash dividends in the future will depend on the
financial condition, results of operations and capital requirements of TWA as
well as other factors deemed relevant by its Board of Directors, including
applicable restrictions in various agreements relating to indebtedness. See
Notes 7 and 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
     As of March 22, 1996, there were 36,942,695 shares of the Company's Common
stock issued and outstanding and 11,488 holders of record of the Common Stock.
There were, on such date 6,425,118 shares of Employee Preferred Stock issued and
outstanding.
 
ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
 
     The selected financial data presented below relates to periods in the five
year period ended December 31, 1995. This data should be read in conjunction
with "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations" and the Consolidated Financial Statements. The
consolidated financial data for these periods was derived from the audited
consolidated financial statements of the Company.
 
     During the period from 1992 through 1995, TWA underwent two separate
Chapter 11 reorganizations, the first in 1992-93 and the second in 1995. In
connection with the '95 Reorganization, TWA has applied fresh start reporting in
accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement
of Position 90-7, "Financial Reporting by Entries in Reorganization Under the
Bankruptcy Code" ("SOP 90-7"), which has resulted in the creation of a new
reporting entity for accounting purposes and the Company's assets and
liabilities being adjusted to reflect fair values on the '95 Effective Date. A
description of the adjustments to the financial statements arising from the
consummation of the '95 Reorganization and the application of fresh start
reporting is contained in Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. For
accounting purposes, the '95 Effective Date is deemed to be September 1, 1995.
Because of the application of fresh start reporting, the financial statements
for periods after the '95 Reorganization are not comparable in all respects to
the financial statements for periods prior to the reorganization. Similarly, the
Consolidated Financial Statements for the periods prior to the '93
Reorganization are not consistent with periods subsequent
 
                                       21
<PAGE>   23
 
to the '93 Reorganization. Accordingly, a vertical black line separates these
periods. Earnings per share of the predecessor companies have not been presented
as the amounts are not meaningful.

(1) Includes special charges of $1.7 million in the eight months ended August
    31, 1995 and $138.8 million in 1994. For a discussion of these and other
    non-recurring items, see Notes 14 and 18 to the Consolidated Financial
    Statements.
 
(2) The eight months ended August 31, 1995 includes charges of $242.2 million
    related to reorganization items. The ten months ended October 31, 1993
    includes a charge of $342.4 million related to the settlement of pension
    obligations and income of $268.1 million related to reorganization items.
    The 1992 and 1991 results include non-recurring gains of $254.6 million and
    $681.7 million, respectively, from the disposition of assets.
 
(3) The extraordinary item in the four months ended December 31, 1995 was the
    result of the settlement of a debt of a subsidiary, while the extraordinary
    item in the eight months ended August 31, 1995 represents the gain on the
    discharge of indebtedness pursuant to the consummation of the '95
    Reorganization. The extraordinary item in 1994 represents the charge for a
    prepayment premium related to the sale and lease back of four McDonnell
    Douglas MD-80 aircraft. The extraordinary item in 1993 represents the gain
    on
</TABLE>
 
                                       22
<PAGE>   24
 
    discharge of indebtedness pursuant to the consummation of the '93
    Reorganization. The extraordinary items in 1991 include a net gain of $27.9
    million resulting from the early extinguishment of debt and a tax benefit of
    $17.4 million from the utilization of a portion of the Company's net
    operating loss carry forward for financial reporting purposes.
 
(4) No effect has been given to stock options, warrants or potential issuances
    of additional Employee Preferred Stock as the impact would have been
    anti-dilutive.
 
(5) For purposes of determining the ratio of earnings to fixed charges,
    "earnings" consist of earnings before income taxes, extraordinary items and
    fixed charges (excluding capitalized interest) and "fixed charges" consist
    of interest (including capitalized interest) on all debt and that portion of
    rental expense that management believes to be representative of interest.
    Earnings were not sufficient to cover "fixed charges" as follows (in
    millions): for the four months ended December 31, 1995, $32.3; for the eight
    months ended August 31, 1995, $338.3; for the year ended December 31, 1994,
    $435.0; for the two months ended December 31, 1993, $88.4; for the ten
    months ended October 31, 1994, $364.7; and for the years ended December 31,
    1992 and 1991, $317.4 and $4.0, respectively.
 
(6) Long-term debt in 1994 was reclassified to current maturities as a result of
    certain alleged defaults and payment defaults. See Note 7 to the
    Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
(7) For periods after January 31, 1992 and before the '93 Effective Date,
    certain prepetition liabilities, which were subject to compromise pursuant
    to the '93 Reorganization, were classified as liabilities subject to Chapter
    11 reorganization proceedings, and the accrual of interest was discontinued
    on prepetition debt that was unsecured or estimated to be undersecured.
 
(8) No dividends were paid on the Company's outstanding common stock during the
    periods presented above.
 
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS
 
     During the period from 1992 through 1995, TWA underwent two separate
Chapter 11 reorganizations, the first in 1992-93 and the second in 1995. In
connection with the '95 Reorganization, TWA has applied fresh start reporting in
accordance with SOP 90-7 which has resulted in the creation of a new reporting
entity for accounting purposes and the Company's assets and liabilities being
adjusted to reflect fair values on the '95 Effective Date. A description of the
adjustments to the financial statements arising from the consummation of the '95
Reorganization and the application of fresh start reporting is contained in Note
17 to Consolidated Financial Statements. For accounting purposes, the '95
Effective Date is deemed to be September 1, 1995. Because of the application of
fresh start reporting, the financial statements for periods after the '95
Reorganization are not comparable in all respects to the financial statements
for periods prior to the reorganization. Similarly, the Consolidated Financial
Statements for the periods prior to the '93 Reorganization are not consistent
with periods subsequent to the '93 Reorganization.
 
     As discussed below under "-- Liquidity and Capital Resources," pursuant to
the '95 Reorganization and the Company's current business strategy, the Company
has improved its financial condition and operating performance by, among other
things, reducing labor and other operating and financing costs, rescheduling
debt payments, recapitalizing the Company's equity securities and certain of its
debt, revising the Company's route structure to capitalize further on its
dominance in St. Louis, and developing enhanced marketing systems. Pursuant to
the '95 Reorganization, the Company eliminated approximately $500 million in
face amount (approximately $300 million book value) of debt from its balance
sheet. In addition, the maturity of the Icahn Loans was extended from January 8,
1995 to January 8, 2001, and the Company negotiated an aggregate of $91 million
of aircraft lease and conditional sale agreement deferrals for various periods
of time, with a weighted average life of approximately two years.
 
     In March 1996 the Company completed the sale of 3,869,000 shares of a newly
authorized series of convertible preferred stock, the 8% Cumulative Convertible
Exchangeable Preferred Stock (the "8% Preferred Stock"). The gross proceeds from
the sale of the 8% Preferred Stock were approximately $193.5 million and the net
proceeds to the Company were approximately $186.2 million, after commissions and
expenses. A portion of the net proceeds from the offering will be used to redeem
the Company's outstanding 12%
 
                                       23
<PAGE>   25
 
Cumulative Preferred Stock, pursuant to the terms thereof, at an aggregate
redemption price of approximately $81.7 million, plus accrued dividends from
February 1, 1996 to such redemption date. On March 22, 1996, the Company
announced that it had called all of its issued and outstanding 12% Cumulative
Redeemable Preferred Stock for redemption on April 26, 1996. The Company intends
to use the balance of the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, including
but not limited to, capital expenditures and increasing working capital.
 
     Each share of the 8% Preferred Stock may be converted at any time, at the
option of the holder, unless previously redeemed or exchanged, into shares of
Common Stock at a conversion price of $20.269 per share (equivalent to a
conversion rate of approximately 2.467 shares of Common Stock for each share of
8% Preferred Stock), subject to adjustment. The 8% Preferred Stock may not be
redeemed prior to March 15, 1999. On or after March 15, 1999, the 8% Preferred
Stock may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company, at
specified redemption prices. The 8% Preferred Stock may be exchanged, in whole
but not in part, at the option of the Company, for the Company's 8% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures due 2006 (the "Debentures") on any dividend payment date
beginning on March 15, 1998 at the rate of $50.00 principal amount of Debentures
for each share of 8% Preferred Stock outstanding at the time of exchange;
provided that all accrued and unpaid dividends, whether or not earned or
declared, on the 8% Preferred Stock to the date of exchange have been paid or
set aside for payment and certain other conditions are met.
 
     The offering and sale of the 8% Preferred Stock was made pursuant to Rule
144A of the Securities Act of 1933 and, accordingly, such shares are not
currently registered under federal and state securities laws. The Company has
agreed to file a shelf registration statement in respect of the 8% Preferred
Stock, the Debentures issuable on the exchange thereof and the shares of Common
Stock issuable upon the conversion thereof.
 
GENERAL
 
     The Company's operating results are significantly affected by both the
general and the airline industry economic environment. Small fluctuations in
yield per RPM and cost per ASM can have a significant impact on the Company's
financial results. During the early 1990s, the Company experienced significant
losses, with operating losses totaling $284.0 million in 1993 and $279.5 million
in 1994. Factors contributing to these losses included, among other things,
adverse publicity associated with the Company's financial difficulties;
excessive labor costs; the continuing impact of a relatively weak economy, which
resulted in weak air travel demand; and domestic pricing policies of other
airlines, which decreased industry revenue yields and generated intense
competition.
 
     The Company's 1995 operating results for the combined eight and four month
periods prior to and following the '95 Effective Date demonstrate a significant
improvement over 1994. Operating income for 1995 improved $304.6 million to
$25.1 million, the Company's first annual operating profit since 1989. The
Company's net loss showed similarly dramatic results, improving $208.4 million
to a $227.5 million loss for 1995 (including net charges of $155.8 million
related to the '95 Reorganization). The operating income and net results for
1995 and 1994 include a number of significant non-recurring and unusual items.
Operating income included non-cash earned stock compensation charges of $58.0
million in 1995, a non-recurring charge to compensation in 1994 of $36.3
million, and other special charges of $1.7 million and $138.8 million in 1995
and 1994, respectively. Excluding these items, operating income would have
improved approximately $189.2 million in 1995 over 1994. Additionally, net
income in 1995 was further affected by charges for reorganization items of
$242.2 million and extraordinary gains of $144.4 million from the extinguishment
of debt, principally as a result of the '95 Reorganization, as compared to an
extraordinary loss of $2.0 million in 1994. Excluding these additional items,
net income would have improved by $188.8 million over 1994.
 
     Operating revenues were $90.9 million lower in 1995 than in 1994,
principally as a result of the sale of certain subsidiaries in the prior year,
which also favorably affected operating expense comparisons. Employment costs
(excluding earned stock compensation) were $164.8 million less in 1995 than in
1994, which included a non-recurring charge of $36.3 million. The reduction was
principally the result of savings realized from the '94 Labor Agreements and
certain similar agreements with the Company's non-union employees.
 
                                       24
<PAGE>   26
 
     The Company's ability to continue to improve its financial position and
meet its financial obligations will depend upon a variety of factors, including:
improved operating results, favorable domestic and international airfare pricing
environments, absence of adverse general economic conditions, continued
operating cost controls, and the Company's ability to attract new capital.
 
     The '94 Labor Agreements, which substantially reduced the Company's labor
costs, will become amendable in the latter half of 1997. While the Company
cannot predict the precise wage rates that will be in effect at such time (since
such rates will be determined by subsequent events), the wage rates then in
effect will likely increase. However, management believes that it is essential
that the Company's labor costs remain favorable in comparison to its largest
competitors. See "Item 1. Business-Business Strategy-Strategic Repositioning of
the Company." The Company will seek to continue to improve employee productivity
and will continue to explore other ways to control and/or reduce operating
expenses. Additionally, the Company will seek to continue improving its market
share as compared with its competitors by continuing to modify its flight
schedule and route structure and by continuing to increase customer preference
based on TWA's improved product quality.
 
     At December 31, 1995, the Company had shareholders' equity of approximately
$302.9 million and debt, obligations under capital leases and redeemable
preferred stock aggregating approximately $1.2 billion. Like its principal
competitors, TWA typically operates with a working capital deficit, which in the
case of TWA aggregated $111.6 million at December 31, 1995. On December 31,
1995, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $286.8 million.
However, due to, among other things, the seasonality of its business, payments
on its indebtedness and capital expenditures (including payments for hush-kits
prior to reimbursement through financing anticipated but not yet consummated)
and pre-delivery payments relating to the purchase of certain new Boeing 757
aircraft, the Company anticipates that by March 31, 1996, excluding the net
proceeds from the sale of the 8% Preferred Stock received on March 22, 1996, its
cash balance would have been reduced to a level significantly below that
reported on December 31, 1995.
 
     As a result of the application of fresh start reporting as of the '95
Effective Date, substantial values were assigned to routes, gates and slots
($458.4 million) and reorganization value in excess of amounts allocable to
identifiable assets ($839.1 million). In future periods these intangibles will
be evaluated for recoverability based upon estimated future cash flows. If
expectations are not substantially achieved, charges to future operations for
impairment of those assets may be required and such charges could be material.
 
     The Company's first quarter operating results have historically been
considerably less favorable than for other quarters and typically reflect
substantial operating and net losses. For example, for the first quarter of
1995, the Company reported an operating loss of $76.3 million and a net loss of
$122.8 million. The Company realized significant improvements in operating
income in each of the last two quarters of 1995, and in the first quarter of
1996 anticipates a smaller operating loss than 1995's first quarter operating
loss. During the first quarter of 1996, however, the Company is incurring higher
maintenance and training expenses due in part to a concentration of maintenance
work in such quarter as a result of the Company's maintenance cycle and also to
prepare for the introduction of additional aircraft into service during the
summer of 1996. In addition, the Company has experienced significant revenue
reductions and additional costs as a result of the recent severe winter weather
experienced in the Midwest and on the Eastern Seaboard. Consequently, the
Company does not expect the improvement in operating results to be as
significant for the first quarter of 1996 as has been achieved during the past
two quarters. The Company expects to report substantial operating and net losses
for the first quarter of 1996.
 
     There are a number of uncertainties relating to agreements with employees,
the resolution of which could result in non-cash charges to future operating
results of the Company. Shares granted or purchased at a discount under the ESIP
will generally result in a charge equal to the fair value of shares granted and
the discount for shares purchased at the time when such shares are earned. If
the ESIP's target prices for the Common Stock are realized, the minimum
aggregate charge for the years 1997 to 2002 would be approximately $60 million
based upon such target prices and the number of shares of Common Stock and
Employee Preferred Stock outstanding at December 31, 1995. The charge for any
year, however, could be substantially higher if the market price of the Common
Stock exceeds the target price for such year ($11.00,
 
                                       25
<PAGE>   27
 
$12.10, $13.31, $14.64, $16.11 and $17.72 for the years 1997 to 2002).
Additionally, the allocation of approximately 1.1 million shares of Employee
Preferred Stock issued to a trust for employees represented by ALPA pursuant to
the '95 Reorganization will, when allocated to individual employees so
represented, result in a charge equal to the fair market value of the shares on
the dates allocated. Finally, the IAM has indicated that it does not agree with
the Company's method of computing certain amounts owed to IAM represented
employees relating to overtime "bonus" claims under the '92 Labor Agreements (as
defined herein). The Company estimates its obligation to be approximately $26.3
million and the IAM has, while not specifying an amount, indicated they believe
the amount owed is significantly greater. See Notes 11 and 14 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
     Significant variations in annual operating revenues and operating expenses
have been experienced historically by TWA and are expected to continue in the
future. While numerous uncertainties concerning the level of revenues and
expenses always exist, the nature of such uncertainties is constantly changing,
and it is not possible to predict the potential impact of any of such
uncertainties upon TWA's income from operations. Among the uncertainties that
might adversely impact TWA's future earnings are: (i) competitive pricing
initiatives; (ii) competitive flights added by competing airlines; (iii) changes
in the cost of fuel; (iv) reduced levels of air passenger traffic resulting from
war, threat of war, international terrorism and changes in the economy; (v)
limitations on the ability of TWA to service certain airports as a result of
certain noise abatement practices or regulations imposed on carriers operating
at such airports; (vi) current and future regulatory requirements requiring
additional capital expenditures with respect to, among other things, noise
abatement; and (vii) the possible effect on the Company's yields of a discount
ticket program entered into by the Company with an affiliate of Mr. Icahn in
connection with the '95 Reorganization, referred to in "-- Liquidity and Capital
Resources -- Liquidity."
 
     The airline industry is both cyclical and seasonal in nature. The demand
for air transportation is closely related to general U.S. and worldwide economic
conditions. The Company's operating results for any interim period are not
necessarily indicative of those for the entire year due to seasonal
fluctuations. The second and third quarter results have historically been more
favorable for the Company due to increased leisure travel on both domestic and
international routes during the spring and summer months.
 
     TWA believes that the Company's operating results were further impacted by
the adverse publicity surrounding its financial condition and bankruptcy
proceedings, in particular by the loss of higher-yield business traffic.
Furthermore, the substantial increase in transatlantic service provided by other
major U.S. carriers has resulted in a more competitive environment over many of
the Company's international routes.
 
     On May 4, 1993, the bilateral air transport agreement between the U.S. and
France lapsed. Any reduction in U.S. carrier access could have an adverse impact
on TWA's transatlantic operations. Absent a bilateral agreement, the U.S. and
France are operating on a system of comity and reciprocity. Under this regime,
carriers are permitted to maintain historical levels of service, but few or no
new services are permitted. Cessation of service to any authorized markets from
France may cause such underlying authority to terminate.
 
     In September 1993, the U.S. and Germany signed an interim bilateral
aviation agreement which in effect freezes capacity in Germany for a period of
four years. On February 29, 1996, the U.S. and Germany announced agreement on a
new, more liberal "open skies" bilateral aviation agreement. It is expected that
the new agreement will come into effect during 1996. It is anticipated that this
agreement may lead to additional competition on TWA's routes to Frankfurt.
 
     TWA's operating strategy contemplates a capacity increase in 1996 of
approximately 7% as measured by total ASMs, through, among other things, the
acquisition of four additional used Boeing 747s, 12 additional MD-80s/83s and
three new Boeing 757s, an increase in seating density across TWA's fleet and
more efficient use of existing equipment. This capacity increase is measured net
of the capacity decrease resulting from aircraft retirements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE FOUR MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND EIGHT
MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 1995 COMPARED TO THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994
 
     Total operating revenues of $1,098.5 million and $2,218.4 million for the
four months ended December 31, 1995 and the eight months ended August 31, 1995,
respectively, were, on a combined basis, $90.9 million (2.7%) less than 1994,
primarily because of an $80.5 million decrease in other revenues. This decrease
is primarily due to the sale of subsidiary companies in 1994 ($51.9 million), a
decrease of $13.0 million in TWA Nippon, Inc. ("Nippon") revenues, and a $12.3
million decrease in TWA Getaway Vacations ("Getaway Vacations") revenue.
 
                                       27
<PAGE>   29
 
     During 1995, passenger revenue remained virtually unchanged from 1994,
despite the adverse publicity generated by the '95 Reorganization, and in the
four months since emerging from bankruptcy, passenger revenue increased by $48.3
million, a 5.5% improvement over the same period of 1994. System capacity as
measured by ASMs was trimmed by 3.2% on a system-wide basis in 1995 versus 1994.
International capacity decreased 13.7% due to the termination of flights to
several international destinations, while domestic capacity increased slightly
(1.1%). During 1995, system traffic volume, as measured by total RPMs, improved
slightly (0.1%), the result of a decrease in international traffic by 5.1% and
an increase in domestic traffic by 2.3%. TWA's yield per passenger mile for 1995
increased to 11.39 cents from 11.31 cents in 1994 (reflecting a domestic
increase to 12.80 cents from 12.66 cents and an international decrease to 7.78
cents from 8.10 cents).
 
     Operating expenses of $1,088.0 million and $2,203.7 million for the four
months ended December 31, 1995 and the eight months ended August 31, 1995,
respectively, were, on a combined basis, $395.5 million (10.7%) less than the
operating expenses of $3,687.2 million for 1994, representing a net change in
the following expense groups.
 
     Employment costs, excluding non-cash stock compensation costs, for the four
months ended December 31, 1995 and the eight months ended August 31, 1995 of
$373.0 million and $755.7 million, respectively, were, on a combined basis,
$164.8 million (12.7%) less than 1994. The reduction in employment costs reflect
a full year of savings realized from the '94 Labor Agreements entered into in
August 1994 as the average number of employees was reduced from approximately
25,200 in 1994 to approximately 22,900 in 1995. The four months ended December
31, 1995 included the favorable impacts of changes in estimates which reduced
employee benefit costs by approximately $6.2 million. Additionally, 1994
employment costs included a non-recurring contractual benefit accrual of
approximately $36.3 million.
 
     During 1995, the Company distributed shares of stock to employees as part
of its financial restructuring which, together with certain other non-cash
compensation charges, resulted in an aggregate charge of $58.0 million to
operating expense. Additional non-cash compensation charges will be recorded in
1996 and 1997, a substantial portion of which will depend on the market price of
the Common Stock at such times. For a further discussion of this charge and
future charges related to non-cash compensation, see Notes 10 and 11 to
Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
     Aircraft fuel and oil expense of $161.8 million for the four months ended
December 31, 1995 and $296.8 million for the eight months ended August 31, 1995,
reflected a combined decrease of $18.9 million from 1994. The combined effect of
decreased fuel usage (5.6%), offset by a slight increase in the unit price
(1.8%), resulted in a decrease of 4.0% in fuel costs for 1995. The average unit
price of fuel was $0.57 per gallon in 1995 compared to $0.56 in 1994. Effective
October 1, 1995, an exemption expired related to a federal fuel tax of 4.3 cents
per gallon on commercial jet fuel purchased for use in domestic operations. This
additional tax increased fuel costs by $7 million in the fourth quarter of 1995.
See "Item 1. Business -- Aircraft Fuel".
 
     Passenger sales commission expense of $80.0 million in the four months
ended December 31, 1995 and $186.0 million in the eight months ended August 31,
1995, respectively, together represent a decrease of $22.0 million (7.6%) from
1994. The decrease is primarily due to incentive commissions and a reduction in
the commission rate on international tickets. The four months ended December 31,
1995 included the favorable impacts of changes in estimated commissions which
reduced commission expense by approximately $6.7 million.
 
     Aircraft maintenance and repairs expense of $52.0 million and $95.7 million
for the four-month and the eight-month periods of 1995, respectively, together
represent a slight increase of $2.3 million (1.6%) over 1994.
 
     Depreciation and amortization decreased $21.6 million (11.8%) to the
combined $55.2 million for the four months ended December 31, 1995 and the
$106.5 million for the eight months ended August 31, 1995 from $183.3 million in
1994. The decrease is generally due to the normal decline in depreciation as
property reaches the end of its estimated economic life, partially offset by an
increase in the amortization of intangible assets arising from fresh start
reporting on the '95 Effective Date and the sale (and simultaneous leaseback) of
five Boeing 727 and two Boeing 747 aircraft in March 1995.
 
                                       28

     Operating lease rentals were $96.4 million for the last four months of 1995
and $182.5 million for the first eight months of 1995, a combined increase of
$17.6 million (6.7%) over 1994. The increase was principally due to the sale and
simultaneous leaseback of five Boeing 727s and two Boeing 747s in March 1995 and
the addition of three new MD-83 aircraft in late 1995. The increase was also due
to the reclassification of the JFK International Terminal lease from capital to
operating ($3.8 million).
 
     Passenger food and beverage expenses were $34.7 million and $68.1 million
for the four months ended December 31, 1995 and the eight months ended August
31, 1995, respectively, a combined decrease of $18.0 million (14.9%) in 1995
compared to 1994. The decrease is primarily due to decreased international
traffic and cost savings as a result of the closing of the JFK and Los Angeles
dining units in the fourth quarter of 1994.
 
     Special charges of $1.7 million were recorded in the third quarter of 1995
related to the shut-down of TWE.
 
     All other operating expenses, excluding special charges, aggregated $232.7
million for the four months ended December 31, 1995 and $454.9 million for the
eight months ended August 31, 1995, a combined decrease of $90.9 million (11.7%)
compared to 1994. The decrease is primarily the result of the operating
subsidiaries sold in 1994 ($34.6 million) and decreases in the operating costs
of TWE ($14.2 million) and other subsidiaries ($27.3 million).
 
     Other charges (credits) were a net charge of $42.7 million for the last
four months of 1995 and a net charge of $352.9 million for the first eight
months of 1995 compared to a net charge of $153.4 million in 1994. This increase
of $242.3 million was primarily due to a $242.2 million non-recurring charge
related to the Company's restructuring. Additionally, interest expense declined
by $26.2 million and investment income increased by $5.8 million. See also Note
15 to Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
     In future periods, the amortization or reorganization value in excess of
amounts allocable to identifiable assets and certain other non-deductible items
will likely result in the Company's effective tax rate for financial reporting
periods exceeding statutory rates. See Note 4 to Consolidated Financial
Statements.
 
     As a result of the above, the operating profit of $10.4 million for the
four months ended December 31, 1995 and $14.6 million for the eight months ended
August 31, 1995 reflected, on a combined basis, a $304.5 million improvement
from the operating loss of $279.5 million in 1994. The net loss of $30.1 million
for the last four months of 1995 and $197.3 million for the first eight months
of 1995 was, on a combined basis, $208.4 million less than the net loss of
$435.8 million in 1994.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR 1994 COMPARED TO THE TWO MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31,
1993 AND TEN MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 1993
 
     Total operating revenues of $3,407.7 million were $253.0 million greater
than the combined total operating revenues of $520.8 million and $2,633.9
million for the two months ended December 31, 1993 and the ten months ended
October 31, 1993, respectively. The increase was primarily reflected in TWA
passenger revenues which were $246.4 million higher than in 1993, while revenue
from Getaway Vacations increased $14.2 million, revenue from freight and mail
increased $14.3 million and revenue from contract work decreased $15.5 million.
 
     Capacity and traffic were significantly higher in 1994 than in 1993 as TWA
continued to rebuild capacity following the implementation of cost-saving
measures in the fourth quarter of 1992 intended to streamline operations,
including flight schedule reductions. System-wide capacity, measured in ASMs,
increased by 9.9% as compared to 1993 (representing increases in domestic and
international ASMs of 11.7% and 5.6% respectively). Passenger traffic volume
carried by TWA in scheduled air transportation during 1994 increased 9.9% as
compared to 1993 (representing increases in domestic and international RPMs of
12.3% and 4.6%, respectively). TWA's yield per passenger mile for 1994 decreased
to 11.31 cents from 11.35 cents in 1993 (reflecting a domestic decrease to 12.66
cents from 12.78 cents and an international decrease to 8.10 cents from 8.17
cents).

     Operating expenses of $3,687.2 million in 1994 reflect an increase of
$248.5 million (7.2%) over the combined operating expenses of $579.1 million and
$2,859.7 million for the two months ended December 31, 1993 and the ten months
ended October 31, 1993, respectively, representing a net change in the following
expense groups.
 
     After excluding the $36.3 million contractual benefit accrual recorded in
1994, employment costs decreased $9.8 million from the combined employment costs
recorded for the two months ended December 31, 1993 and the ten months ended
October 31, 1993 of $219.0 million and $1,048.0 million, respectively, primarily
due to a decrease in the number of employees on the payroll. The decrease in
employees to 22,771 in December 1994 from 26,073 in December 1993 was not fully
reflected in the 1994 costs since reductions generally took place late in the
year.
 
     Aircraft fuel and oil expense decreased $18.7 million to $477.6 million in
1994 from a combined expense of $79.6 million for the two months ended December
31, 1993 and $416.7 million for the ten months ended October 31, 1993. The
combined effect of increased fuel usage (5.0%) and a decrease in unit price
(8.4%) resulted in a decrease of 3.8% in fuel cost for 1994. The average unit
price of fuel was $0.56 per gallon in 1994 compared to $0.61 in 1993.
 
     Passenger sales commission expense of $288.0 million in 1994 was $27.9
million greater than the combined commission expense of $41.6 million in the two
months ended December 31, 1993 and $218.5 million in the ten months ended
October 31, 1993, respectively. Approximately $10.5 million of the increase can
be attributed to an adjustment in the second quarter of 1993 to reduce
previously established accruals for incentive commissions which TWA estimated
would not be paid. The remaining increase is principally due to the increase in
passenger revenue and commissionable sales.
 
     Aircraft maintenance materials and repairs expense increased $8.5 million
to $145.3 million in 1994 from $25.6 million and $111.2 million for the
two-month and ten-month periods of 1993, respectively. The increase for 1994 is
primarily attributable to adjustments in 1993 for certain excess and repairable
parts inventory which had previously been expended which were reestablished with
a corresponding reduction to maintenance expense of approximately $24 million in
1993.
 
     Depreciation and amortization increased $16.7 million to $183.3 million in
1994 over the combined $30.2 million for the two months ended December 31, 1993
and the $136.4 million for the ten months ended October 31, 1993. The increase
is attributable to the amortization of intangible assets established in fresh
start accounting on the '93 Effective Date, aggregating approximately $42.5
million in 1994 and $7.2 million in the two months ended December 31, 1993,
offset primarily by reduced depreciation and amortization of property and
equipment arising from asset sales and reductions in the cost basis of various
assets in fresh start accounting.
 
     Operating lease rentals increased $51.3 million to $261.4 million in 1994
versus $36.6 million for the last two months of 1993 and $173.5 million for the
first ten months of 1993. Seventeen new aircraft were leased in 1994 while nine
Boeing 727s and four L-1011s were returned to lessors.
 
     Passenger food and beverage expense increased $3.8 million in 1994 to
$120.8 million from $18.7 million and $98.3 million for the two months ended
December 31, 1993 and the ten months ended October 31, 1993, respectively. The
10% increase in traffic carried, partially offset by reduction in meal service
offered, were the primary factors behind this net increase.
 
     All other operating expenses, excluding special charges, decreased $6.4
million in 1994 to $778.4 million from $127.8 million for the two months ended
December 31, 1993 and $657.0 million for the ten months ended October 31, 1993.
Special charges totaled $138.8 million in 1994. See Note 14 of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
     Other charges (credits) were a net charge of $153.4 million in 1994, a
$13.4 million decrease over the combined charge of $29.9 million for the last
two months of 1993 and a net charge of $136.9 million for the first ten months
of 1993. This net favorable change of $13.4 million was the result of several
items, including: (i) a nonoperating charge in 1993 of approximately $342.4
million reflecting the settlement of TWA's
 
                                       30
<PAGE>   32
 
obligation under certain former TWA pension plans pursuant to the consummation
of a settlement agreement among the Company, its principal labor unions, Mr.
Icahn, the PBGC and other parties in connection with the '93 Reorganization;
(ii) an unfavorable net change of $268.1 million from 1993 primarily due to
fresh start reporting adopted upon the effectiveness of the '93 Reorganization;
(iii) an unfavorable change in interest expense of $72.3 million, which reflects
the interest costs for debt securities issued pursuant to the '93 Reorganization
and the suspension of interest accruals on prepetition unsecured or undersecured
debt in the ten months ended October 31, 1993; and (iv) a favorable net change
of $11.4 million in all other charges and credits-net.
 
     The extraordinary loss of $2.0 million recorded in 1994 was the result of a
prepayment premium on the retirement of debt related to the sale and leaseback
of four MD-80 aircraft on March 31, 1994. The extraordinary gain recorded in the
ten months ended October 31, 1993 included $172.9 million from the cancellation
in January 1993 of TWA debt securities held by certain Icahn Entities pursuant
to a settlement agreement among the Company, its principal labor unions, Mr.
Icahn, the PBGC and other parties in connection with the '93 Reorganization and
$902.6 million from the discharge of indebtedness pursuant to the consummation
of the '93 Reorganization.
 
     As a result of the above, the operating loss of $279.5 million for 1994 was
$4.5 million less than the operating loss for the combined periods of 1993. The
net loss for 1994 was $435.8 million, as compared to net income of $623.8
million for the combined periods of 1993, which included $1,075.6 million in
extraordinary gains related to the consummation of the '93 Reorganization.
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
     The following is a discussion of the impact of significant factors
affecting TWA's liquidity position and capital resources. These comments should
be read in conjunction with, and are qualified in their entirety by, the
Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto.
 
  Liquidity
 
     The Company's consolidated cash and cash equivalents for the year ended
December 31, 1995 increased by $165.5 million to $286.8 million (including
approximately $28.0 million in cash and cash equivalents held in its
international operations and by its subsidiaries which, based upon various
foreign monetary regulations and other factors, might not be immediately
available to the Company). The net increase was primarily due to the improvement
in cash provided by operations which increased to $212.2 million in 1995,
compared to $6.0 million in 1994. This improvement was attributable to improved
operating performance and working capital management, including lease deferrals.
Net cash used in investing activities was $18.9 million in 1995, compared to net
cash provided by investing activities of $55.0 million in 1994. Proceeds from
asset sales decreased to $9.3 million in 1995 from $76.2 million in 1994, while
capital expenditures increased to $59.5 million from $44.9 million over the same
periods. Cash used in financing activities decreased to $27.8 million in 1995 as
compared to $110.1 million in 1994, principally as a result of the net proceeds
from an equity rights offering (as further discussed below) and the proceeds of
debt issued to finance, in part, the acquisition of an aircraft in the fourth
quarter of 1995.
 
     Because of the seasonality of its business, payments on indebtedness and
capital expenditures (including payments for hush-kits prior to reimbursement
through financing anticipated but not yet consummated) and pre-delivery payments
relating to the purchase of certain new Boeing 757 aircraft, the Company
anticipates that by March 31, 1996, excluding the net proceeds from the sale of
the 8% Preferred Stock received on March 22, 1996, its cash balance would have
been reduced to a level significantly below that reported on December 31, 1995.
 
     In the fourth quarter of 1995, TWA received approximately $55.3 million in
gross proceeds from the exercise at $4.1875 per share of 13,206,247 equity
rights issued pursuant to the '95 Reorganization. The Company had previously
entered into an agreement pursuant to which certain parties agreed to purchase
any shares not subscribed for pursuant to the equity rights offering, and the
Company paid a fee of approximately $3.4 million in September 1995 in connection
therewith.
 
                                       31
<PAGE>   33
 
     Also pursuant to the '95 Reorganization, the Company issued an aggregate
number of 600,000 ticket vouchers, each with a face value of $50.00, which may
be used for up to 50% discount off the cost of a TWA airline ticket for
transportation on TWA ("Ticket Vouchers"). Pursuant to certain agreements, the
Company has agreed to repurchase approximately 236,000 of the Ticket Vouchers at
an aggregate cost of $8.8 million. Payments in respect of these Ticket Vouchers
were approximately $700,000 in 1995 and will be approximately $8.1 million in
1996.
 
     Concurrent with the Company's restructuring initiatives, the Company
undertook aircraft lease payment deferrals to increase liquidity and improve the
Company's financial condition. Gross deferrals of lease and conditional sale
indebtedness payments aggregated approximately $91.0 million with a weighted
average repayment period of approximately two years. The aircraft lease payment
deferrals contemplated by the '95 Reorganization generally anticipated six month
deferrals with various payback periods, extending in some instances over the
remaining life of the lease, and in other cases over a specified period. Cash
repayments of lease deferrals, including interest, were approximately $9.5
million in the fourth quarter of 1995 and are expected to approximate $22.4 and
$8.3 million in 1996 and 1997, respectively.
 
     On June 14, 1995, the Company signed an agreement (the "Extension and
Consent Agreement") with Karabu Corporation, a Delaware company controlled by
Mr. Icahn ("Karabu"), to extend the term of the Icahn Loans from January 8, 1995
to January 8, 2001, to obtain the consent of Karabu and the Icahn Entities to
certain modifications to certain promissory notes issued to the PBGC in
connection with the '93 Reorganization (the "PBGC Notes") and to obtain
agreement with the Icahn Entities to refrain from exercising the right to
terminate certain pension plans, covering employees of the Company as to which
Mr. Icahn and the Icahn Entities assumed certain obligations in the '93
Reorganization. Any such termination would not increase the obligations of TWA
on the PBGC Notes or other obligations of TWA to Mr. Icahn, the Icahn Entities
or the PBGC. Collateral for the Icahn Loans includes a number of aircraft,
engines and related equipment, along with substantially all of the Company's
receivables. On June 26, 1995, the Company made a $12.6 million interest payment
on the Icahn Loans. At December 31, 1995, the outstanding balance of the Icahn
Loans was approximately $188 million (excluding approximately $7.5 million in
accrued and unpaid interest). The notes evidencing the Icahn Loans have been
pledged by Mr. Icahn and certain affiliated entities as security for certain
obligations of the Icahn Entities to the PBGC and /or in respect of funding
obligations on the Company's pre-'93 Reorganization pension plans.
 
     On June 14, 1995, in consideration of, among other things, the extension of
the Icahn Loans as contemplated by the Extension and Consent Agreement, TWA and
Karabu entered into an eight-year Karabu Ticket Program Agreement (the "Ticket
Agreement"). There are two categories of tickets under the Ticket Agreement: (1)
"Domestic Consolidator Tickets," which are subject to a cap of $610 million,
based on the full retail price of the tickets ($120 million in the first 15
months and $70 million per year for seven consecutive years through the term of
the Ticket Agreement) and (2) "System Tickets," which are not subject to any cap
throughout the term of the Ticket Agreement.
 
     Tickets sold by the Company to Karabu pursuant to the Ticket Agreement are
priced at levels intended to approximate current competitive discount fares
available in the airline industry. Considering the number of restrictions placed
on Karabu's resale of tickets to the public, this agreement is intended to
produce net incremental revenue to TWA. The Ticket Agreement provides that no
ticket may be included with an origin or destination of St. Louis, nor may any
ticket include flights on other carriers. Tickets sold by Karabu pursuant to the
Ticket Agreement are required to be at fares specified in the Ticket Agreement,
net to TWA, and exclusive of tax. No commissions will be paid by TWA for tickets
sold under the Ticket Agreement, and TWA believes that under the applicable
provisions of the Ticket Agreement, Karabu may not market or sell such tickets
through travel agents. Karabu, however, has been marketing tickets through
travel agents. TWA has demanded that Karabu cease doing so and Karabu has stated
that it disagrees with the Company's interpretation concerning sales through
travel agents. The Company has informed Karabu that if it does not cease sales
through travel agents, the Company will enforce its rights under the Ticket
Agreement by legal action. In December 1995, the Company filed a lawsuit against
Karabu, Mr. Icahn and affiliated companies seeking damages and to enjoin further
violations. Mr. Icahn countered threatening to attempt to declare a default on
the Icahn Loans on a variety of claims related to his various interpretations of
the security
 
                                       32
<PAGE>   34
 
documents related to such loans as well as with respect to alleged violations of
the Ticket Agreement by the Company. A violation of the Ticket Agreement by the
Company could result in a cross-default under the Icahn Loans. Mr. Icahn also
alleged independent violations of the Icahn Loans, including, among under
things, that the Company has not been maintaining, as required by the terms of
the Icahn Loans, certain aircraft which TWA has retired from service and stored
and which are pledged as security for the Icahn Loans. To endeavor to eliminate
this issue from the various disputes with Mr. Icahn, the Company has deposited
an amount equal to the appraised fair market value with a security trustee and
requested the release of the liens on such aircraft. To date, the Trustee has
not released such liens. The parties negotiated a series of standstill
agreements pursuant to which TWA's original lawsuit was withdrawn, while the
Company and Mr. Icahn endeavored to negotiate a settlement of their differences
and respective claims. The last extension of such a standstill expired on March
20, 1996. Those negotiations reached an impasse and the Company re-filed its
suit on March 20, 1996 in the St. Louis Circuit Court. Also on March 20, 1996,
Karabu and certain other companies controlled by Mr. Icahn filed suit against
the Company alleging violations by the Company of the Ticket Agreement and
federal anti-trust laws. The Company intends to press its claims vigorously and
believes it has meritorious defenses to Mr. Icahn's claims. If Karabu's
interpretation as to sales of discount tickets to the general public through
travel agents was determined by a court or otherwise to be correct and the
Company did not otherwise take appropriate action to mitigate the effect of such
sales, the Company could suffer significant loss of revenue so as to reduce
overall passenger yields on a continuing basis during the term of the Ticket
Agreement. In addition, any default by the Company under the ticket agreement or
directly on the Icahn loans which resulted in an acceleration of the Icahn Loans
could result in a cross-default to the Company's other indebtedness and leases
and otherwise have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company has
instituted legal action against two travel agencies in St. Louis alleging that
by selling TWA tickets purchased from Mr. Icahn such defendants have breached
certain contractual obligations and duties as agents of TWA pursuant to the
Airline Reporting Corporation agreements.
 
     Domestic Consolidator Tickets sold under the Ticket Agreement are limited
to certain origin/destination city markets in which TWA has less than a 5%
market share limit except for New York where there is a 10% limit. These
restricted markets will be reviewed from time to time to determine any change in
TWA's market share, and other markets may be designated as necessary.
 
     The purchase price for the tickets purchased by Karabu are required to
either, at Karabu's option, be retained by Karabu and the amount so retained
credited as prepayments against the outstanding balance of the Icahn Loans, or
be paid over by Karabu to a settlement trust established in connection with the
'93 Reorganization for TWA's account as prepayments on the PBGC Notes. At
December 31, 1995, approximately $2.0 million of such proceeds had been applied
to the principal balance of the Icahn Loans, while no proceeds had been applied
to the PBGC Notes.
 
     The current blended interest rate on the PBGC Notes of 8.19% is subject to
an increase in 1998, up to a rate as high as 9.4%, if the price of TWA's Common
Stock does not exceed $12 per share for each of 30 consecutive trading days
during the 24 month period commencing January 1, 1996 and ending on December 31,
1997.
 
     The Company elected to pay interest, due August 1, 1995 and February 1,
1996, on its 12% Senior Secured Reset Notes, in shares of Common Stock. The
amount of such interest aggregated approximately $10.4 and $10.2 million,
respectively, and resulted in the issuance of approximately 1.9 million and 1.1
million shares of Common Stock on the respective dates. The Company elected to
pay dividends due February 1, 1996 on its 12% Preferred Stock for the period
from November 1, 1995 to and including January 31, 1996, in the amount of
approximately $3.3 million, in shares of Common Stock. If not previously
redeemed, other dividend payments due in 1996, for which the Company has not
made an election, are on May 1, August 1 and November 1, in the amount of $3.3
million on each date which may be paid in Common Stock or cash.
 
  Capital Resources
 
     TWA has no unused credit lines and must satisfy all of its working capital
and capital expenditure requirements from cash provided by operating activities,
from external borrowings or from the sale of assets.
 
                                       33
<PAGE>   35
 
Substantially all of TWA's strategic assets, including its owned aircraft,
ground equipment, gates, slots and overhaul facilities, have been pledged to
secure various issues of outstanding indebtedness of the Company. Sales of such
assets which are not replaced would, under the terms of applicable financing
agreements, generally require payment of the indebtedness secured thereby, which
indebtedness in many cases would likely exceed the immediately realizable value
of such assets. TWA has relatively few non-strategic assets which it could
monetize, substantially all of such assets being subject to various liens and
security interests which would restrict and/or limit the ability of TWA to
realize any significant proceeds from the sale thereof. To the extent that the
Company's access to capital is constrained, the Company may not be able to make
certain capital expenditures or implement certain other aspects of its strategic
plan, and the Company may therefore be unable to achieve the full benefits
expected therefrom.
 
  Commitments
 
     TWA's capital expenditures for 1996 are currently anticipated to total
approximately $120 million, including approximately $75 million for flight
equipment related expenditures (e.g., progress payments for aircraft and the
purchase of aircraft engines and parts). In February 1996, TWA executed
definitive agreements providing for the lease of up to 10 new Boeing 757
aircraft from a major operating lessor to be delivered in 1996 and 1997 and the
purchase of 10 new Boeing 757 aircraft from the manufacturer with deliveries to
commence in February 1997. The Company also acquired the right, subject to
certain conditions, to purchase up to 20 additional Boeing 757 aircraft from the
manufacturer. The Company has secured financing commitments from engine and
airframe manufacturers for approximately $420 million of the aggregate purchase
price of the purchased aircraft. The purchase price for the aircraft and related
spare parts and equipment is approximately $550 million. The leases with respect
to the leased aircraft have an initial term of 10 years. Although individual
aircraft rentals escalate over the term of the leases, aggregate rental
obligations are estimated to average approximately $51 million per annum over
the lease terms after all 10 aircraft have been delivered.
 
     On December 29, 1995, the Company acquired a used Boeing 767-200 aircraft
and concurrently arranged financing for the purchase thereof. The financing for
this aircraft is approximately $22.0 million, which is repayable over five years
at an interest rate of slightly more than 7% per annum.
 
     TWA's operating strategy contemplates the acquisition of four additional
used Boeing 747s, 10 additional MD-80/83s and three new Boeing 757s during 1996.
Agreements have not been signed with respect to all of the Boeing 747 and
MD80/83 aircraft, and market conditions could cause the Company to modify its
current plans.
 
     TWA has purchase agreements (collectively, the "AVSA Agreement") for the
purchase of 10 A330 aircraft with AVSA, S.A.R.L. ("AVSA"), a subsidiary of
Airbus Industries, C.I.E., and has options to acquire an additional 10 aircraft.
The current delivery schedule calls for the ten firm aircraft to be delivered
during the period from April 1999 to September 2000. Additionally, delivery
dates for the option aircraft have been rescheduled to commence in December 1999
and extend through April 2001, subject to TWA's exercise thereof. In connection
with the AVSA Agreement, TWA is required to issue promissory notes to AVSA in
the aggregate principal amount of approximately $4.3 million in the months of
April, May, June, July and September of 1996. The Company intends to seek to
negotiate a deferral of this obligation which has previously been deferred
twice. However, there can be no assurance that any such deferral will be
granted.
 
     TWA has not yet made arrangements for the permanent financing of the A330
aircraft ordered pursuant to the AVSA Agreement. In the event of cancellation of
the AVSA Agreement, prepayments amounting to approximately $14 million would be
subject to forfeiture.
 
     TWA has also entered into agreements (collectively, the "Equipment
Agreement") with Rolls-Royce plc ("Rolls Royce") relating to the purchase of
Rolls Royce engines, modules, and spare parts at the time of the purchase of,
and to support, the A330 aircraft described above. In the event of cancellation
of the Equipment Agreement, pre-delivery payments amounting to approximately
$3.9 million made by TWA with respect to the Equipment Agreement would be
subject to forfeiture.
 
                                       34
<PAGE>   36
 
     During 1995 the Company returned one Lockheed L-1011 and one Boeing 727 to
their respective lessors upon termination of the leases. The Company plans to
retire six additional L-1011s during 1996, one of which was returned to the
lessor in February 1996, and to return five Boeing 727s to their respective
lessors upon lease terminations during 1996.
 
     The Noise Act provides, with certain exceptions, that no person may operate
large civilian turbo-jet aircraft in the U.S. after December 31, 1999 that do
not comply with Stage 3 noise levels. Stage 3 is an FAA designation for the
quietest commercial jet aircraft. TWA has elected to comply with the transition
requirements of the Noise Act by adopting the Stage 2 aircraft phase
out/retrofit option, which will require that 50% of its base level (December
1990) Stage 2 fleet be phased out/retrofitted by the end of 1996, 75% by the end
of 1998 and 100% by the end of 1999. To comply with the 1996 requirement, the
Company plans to retrofit, by means of engine hush-kits, 28 of its DC-9
aircraft. The aggregate cost of these hush-kits is estimated to approximate $49
million. The Company is exploring various financing options to fund the majority
of such expenditure, including an extension of the current leases at increased
rental rates to finance the expenditure. As of March 22, 1996, the Company has
purchased five hush-kits amounting to $8.1 million with internal funds.
 
     The Company's management currently estimates that it will generate
sufficient resources to fund its operations and meet its debt obligations during
1996. While the Company is seeking financing for certain of its planned capital
expenditures, a substantial portion of such expenditures are expected to utilize
internally generated funds.
 
  Certain Other Capital Requirements
 
     Expenditures for facilities and equipment, other than aircraft, generally
are not committed prior to purchase and, therefore, no such significant
commitments exist at the present time. TWA's ability to finance such
expenditures will depend in part on TWA's financial condition at the time of the

     TWA cannot predict whether or to what extent any change in its planned
capital expenditures may adversely affect its future ability to operate or its
financial condition. In addition, while it has recently acquired a number of
additional aircraft, if TWA were to acquire further additional aircraft, as it
currently plans to do, it cannot predict how any such acquisitions, together
with the related obligations to make rental payments or repay any indebtedness
incurred in connection therewith, ultimately may affect its profitability and
relative market share.
 
  Availability of NOLs
 
     The Company estimates that it had, for federal income tax purposes, net
operating loss carryforwards ("NOLs") amounting to approximately $167.0 million
at December 31, 1995, which expire in 2008 through 2010 if not utilized before
then to offset taxable income. Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code"), and regulations issued thereunder impose limitations on
the ability of corporations to use NOLs, if the corporation experiences a more
than 50% change in ownership during certain periods. As a result of such a
change in ownership caused by the '95 Reorganization, utilization of the
Company's NOLs will, depending upon certain elections to be made by the Company,
be either substantially restricted (to approximately $12 million per year) or
reduced (by approximately $45 million) in future periods. Any future ownership
change may result in the imposition of a significantly lower annual limitation
on the Company's utilization of NOLs and extend the period over which any
benefits are realized therefrom. Moreover, if the Company elects to reduce its
NOLs rather than to apply the $12 million annual limitation described above, and
if another ownership change were to occur during the two-year period following
the '95 Reorganization, the annual limitation on the Company's utilization of
its existing NOLs would be reduced to zero. The Company believes that no
ownership change will occur as a result of the Offering. There can be no
assurance, however, that the Offering will not be a contributing factor to an
ownership change or that an unrelated ownership change will not occur in the
future. In addition, the NOLs are subject to examination by the IRS, and, thus,
are subject to adjustment or disallowance resulting from any such IRS
examination. For financial reporting purposes, the tax benefits from
substantially all of the tax net operating loss carryforwards will, to the
 
                                       35

extent realized in future periods, have no impact on the Company's operating
results, but instead be applied to reduce reorganization value in excess of
amounts allocable to identifiable assets.
 
IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
 
     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS No. 123"), will require pro forma disclosures
in 1996 of net income and earnings per share as if a new method based on the
estimated fair value of employee stock options had been adopted. The Company has
not decided if the optional accounting treatment proposed by SFAS No. 123 will
be adopted.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
 
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Trans World Airlines, Inc.
 
     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Trans World
Airlines, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
related statements of consolidated operations, cash flows and shareholders'
equity (deficiency) for the four months ended December 31, 1995, the eight
months ended August 31, 1995, the year ended December 31, 1994, the two months
ended December 31, 1993 and the ten months ended October 31, 1993. In connection
with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we have also audited
the financial statement schedule for the four months ended December 31, 1995,
the eight months ended August 31, 1995, the year ended December 31, 1994, the
two months ended December 31, 1993 and the ten months ended October 31, 1993.
These consolidated financial statements and the financial statement schedule are
the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and the financial
statement schedule based on our audits.
 
     We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
     In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Trans World
Airlines, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for the four months ended
December 31, 1995, the eight months ended August 31, 1995, the year ended
December 31, 1994, the two months ended December 31, 1993 and the ten months
ended October 31, 1993, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when
considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole,
presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.
 
     As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the
consolidated financial statements reflect the application of fresh start
reporting as of September 1, 1995 and November 1, 1993 and, therefore, are not
comparable in all respects to the consolidated financial statements for periods
prior to such dates.

between other cities in the U.S., both nonstop and through St. Louis. TWA's
domestic routes also provide connections with its international service to and
from U.S. cities and certain major cities in Europe and the Middle East (see
Note 19).
 
     The airline industry is highly competitive and the factors affecting
competition are subject to rapid change. Many of the Company's competitors are
larger and have significantly greater financial resources. In addition, several
carriers have introduced or have announced plans to introduce low-cost,
short-haul service, which may result in increased competition to the Company.
Internationally, TWA competes in several "limited entry" markets in which, as a
result of governmental regulations and agreements with foreign governments, TWA
has traditionally competed with a limited number of carriers. No assurance can
be given that TWA will continue to have the advantage of all of the "limited
entry" markets in which it currently operates or that it will not face
substantial additional competition.
 
     The airline industry has experienced substantial volatility in
profitability in recent years as a result of, among other factors, general
economic conditions, competitive pricing initiatives, the overall level of
capacity operated in the industry and fuel prices. While the financial
restructuring completed by TWA in 1995 and actions taken by management have
improved the liquidity position and the recent operating results of the Company,
TWA continues to be highly leveraged and has and will continue to have
significant debt service obligations. TWA presently has no unused credit lines
and substantially all of TWA's strategic assets have been pledged to secure
indebtedness of the Company.
 
     (b) Fresh Start Reporting:  Financial accounting during a Chapter 11
proceeding is prescribed in "Statement of Position 90-7 of the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants", titled "Financial Reporting by
Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code" ("SOP 90-7"), which TWA
adopted effective January 31, 1992 and June 30, 1995. The emergence from the
1993 Chapter 11 proceeding (the " '93 Reorganization") on November 3, 1993 (the
" '93 Effective Date") and from the 1995 Chapter 11 proceeding (the " '95
Reorganization") on August 23, 1995 (the " '95 Effective Date"), resulted in the
creation of new reporting entities without any accumulated deficit and with the
Company's assets and liabilities restated to their estimated fair values (also
see Note 17-Fresh Start Reporting). Because of the application of fresh start
reporting, the financial statements for periods after reorganization are not
comparable in all respects to the financial statements for periods prior to
reorganization.
 
     For periods during the Chapter 11 proceedings, prepetition liabilities
which were unsecured or estimated to be undersecured were classified as
"Liabilities Subject to Compromise in the Chapter 11 Reorganization
Proceedings." The accrual of interest on such liabilities was discontinued for
the period from January 31, 1992 to the '93 Effective Date in the case of the
'93 Reorganization, and from June 30, 1995 to the '95 Effective Date in the case
of the '95 Reorganization.
 
     (c) Consolidation:  The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of TWA and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions
have been eliminated. The results of Worldspan, L.P. ("Worldspan"), a 25% owned
affiliate are recorded under the equity method and are included in the
Statements of Consolidated Operations in Other Charges (Credits). Certain
amounts previously reported have been reclassified to conform with revised
classifications.

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
 
     (d) Property and Depreciation:  Property and equipment owned are
depreciated to residual values over their estimated useful service lives on the
straight-line method. Property held under capital leases is amortized on the
straight-line method over its estimated useful life, limited generally by the
lease period. Estimated remaining useful service lives and residual values are
reviewed periodically for reasonableness and any necessary change is effected at
the beginning of the accounting period in which the revision is adopted. In
connection with the application of fresh start reporting, no significant changes
in the estimated useful lives of assets have been made.
 
     Estimated useful service lives in effect for the purpose of computing the
provision for depreciation, were:
 
     Flight equipment (aircraft and engines, including related spares) -- 16 to
     25 years, varying by aircraft   fleet type
     Buildings -- 20 to 50 years
     Other equipment -- 3 to 20 years
     Leasehold improvements -- Estimated useful life limited by the lease period
 
     Maintenance and repairs, including periodic aircraft overhauls, are
expensed in the year incurred; major renewals and betterments of equipment and
facilities are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining life of the asset.
 
     (e) Intangible Assets:  Route authorities are amortized on a straight line
basis over 30 years (1), gates over the term of the related leases and slots
over 20 years. Routes, gates and slots consist of the following amounts at
December 31 (amounts in thousands):

- ---------------
 
     (1) Prior to January 1, 1995, the Company utilized an estimated useful life
        for route authorities of 40 years (also see Note 14 -- Special Charges
        and Other Nonrecurring Items).
</TABLE>
 
     The reorganization value in excess of amounts allocable to identifiable
assets is being amortized over a 20 year period on the straight-line method.
Accumulated amortization at December 31, 1995 and 1994 was $13,984,000 and
$9,693,000, respectively.
 
     When facts and circumstances suggest that intangible and other long-term
assets may be impaired, the Company evaluates their recoverability based upon
estimated undiscounted future cash flows over the remaining estimated useful
lives. The amount of impairment, if any, is measured based on projected
discounted future operating cash flows.
 
     (f) Foreign Exchange:  Foreign currency and amounts receivable and payable
in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates
on the date of the financial statements. Revenue and expense transactions are
translated at average rates of exchange in a manner that produces approximately
the same dollar amounts that would have resulted had the underlying transactions
been translated into dollars on the dates they occurred. Exchange gains and
losses are included in net income for the period in which the exchange rate
changes.
 
     (g) Inventories:  Inventories, valued at standard cost, which approximates
actual average unit cost, consist primarily of expendable spare parts used for
the maintenance and repair of flight equipment, plus
 
                                      F-10
<PAGE>   49

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
 
aircraft fuel and other operating supplies. A provision for obsolescence of
spare parts is accrued at annual rates which will provide an allowance such that
the unused inventory, at the retirement date of the related aircraft fleet, is
reflected at the lower of cost or estimated net realizable value. In the ten
months ended October 31, 1993, TWA increased the carrying value of certain
excess and repairable spare parts, which had been previously expensed in
expectation that such inventories would not be utilized in operations, to
reflect management's revised estimates as to utilization. The adjustments
resulted in a reduction of maintenance expense of approximately $24 million.
 
     (h) Passenger Revenue Recognition:  Passenger ticket sales are recognized
as revenue when the transportation service is rendered. At the time of sale a
current liability for advance ticket sales is established and subsequently is
eliminated either through carriage of the passenger by TWA, through billing from
another carrier that renders the service, or by refund to the passenger.
 
     Under TWA's "Frequent Flight Bonus Program" ("FFB"), frequent travelers may
accumulate certain defined unit mileage credits which entitle them to a choice
of various awards, including certain free air transportation on TWA at a future
date. When the free travel award level is achieved by a frequent traveler, a
liability is accrued and TWA's operating expense is charged for the estimated
incremental cost which will be incurred by TWA upon the future redemption of the
free travel awarded.
 
     Pursuant to the 1995 Restructuring, TWA issued 600,000 ticket vouchers,
each having a face value of $50, which may be used for a discount of up to 50%
off the cost of a ticket for transportation on TWA. TWA has entered into
agreements, as amended, to purchase for cash from third parties ticket vouchers
acquired by such third parties. Pursuant to these agreements, TWA expects to pay
$8.1 million in cash in 1996. The ticket vouchers were initially recorded as a
liability at their estimated fair value, approximately $26.2 million. The
liability will be relieved in future periods as vouchers are redeemed for cash
or will be reflected as revenue when the transportation is provided for tickets
purchased with vouchers. At December 31, 1995, approximately 396,000 vouchers
were outstanding.
 
     (i) Interest Capitalized:  Interest cost associated with funds expended for
the acquisition of qualifying assets is capitalized. There was no interest
capitalized during 1995. Interest capitalized was $2,133,000 in 1994, and
$267,000 and $2,104,000 for the two months ended December 31, 1993 and the ten
months ended October 31, 1993, respectively.
 
     (j) Income Taxes:  TWA adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS") No. 109, in the first quarter of 1993. This statement requires the use
of the liability method to record the deferred income tax consequences of
differences between the financial reporting and income tax bases of assets and
liabilities.
 
     (k) Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions:  SFAS No. 106, requires
that the expected cost of providing such benefits be accrued over the years that
the employee renders service, in a manner similar to the accounting for pension
benefits. TWA adopted this Standard in the first quarter of 1993 and initially
elected to utilize the delayed method of implementation by recognizing the
transition obligation over a period of 20 years. In connection with the
consummation of the '93 Reorganization, TWA recognized as a liability the
remaining unrecognized accumulated postretirement benefit obligation as part of
the application of fresh start reporting.
 
     (l) Deferred Credit-Aircraft Operating Leases:  The present value of the
excess of contractual rents due under aircraft operating leases over the fair
rentals for such aircraft were recorded as a deferred credit as part of the
application of fresh start reporting. The deferred credit will be increased
through the accrual of interest expense and reduced through a reduction in
operating lease rentals over the terms of the respective aircraft leases. At
December 31, 1995 and 1994, the unamortized balance of the deferred credit was
$41,727,000 and $58,074,000 respectively.

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
 
     (m) Environmental Contingencies:  TWA is subject to numerous environmental
laws and regulations and is subject to liabilities and compliance costs arising
from its past and current handling, processing, recycling, storing and disposing
of hazardous substances and hazardous wastes. It is TWA's policy to accrue
environmental remediation costs when it is probable that a liability has been
incurred and an amount can be reasonably estimated. As potential environment
liabilities are identified and assessments and remediation proceed, these
accruals are reviewed periodically and adjusted, if necessary, as additional
information becomes available. The accruals for these liabilities can
significantly change due to factors such as the availability of additional
information on the nature or extent of the contamination, methods and costs of
required remediation and other actions by governmental agencies.
 
     (n) Mandatorily Redeemable 12% Preferred Stock:  The Mandatorily Redeemable
12% Preferred Stock issued in connection with the '95 Reorganization was
recorded at its estimated fair value. The carrying amount will be increased in
future periods by amortization of the difference between the redemption value
and the carrying amount. The interest method is utilized, with such amounts
recorded as additional preferred stock dividend requirements. These amounts are
currently charged against additional paid in capital due to a deficit in
retained earnings.
 
     (o) Earnings (Loss) Per Share:  In computing the loss applicable to common
shares for the four months ended December 31, 1995, the net loss has been
increased by dividend requirements on the Mandatorily Redeemable 12% Preferred
Stock (including amortization of the difference between the carrying amount and
the redemption value). In computing the related net loss per share, the loss
applicable to common shares has been divided by the aggregate average number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock (28.0 million) and Employee Preferred Stock
(5.3 million) which, with the exception of certain special voting rights, is the
functional equivalent of Common Stock. No effect has been given to stock
options, warrants or potential issuances of additional Employee Preferred Stock
as the impact would have been anti-dilutive. Earnings per share of the
predecessor companies are not presented as the amounts are not meaningful.
 
     (p) Concentration of Credit Risk:  TWA does not believe it is subject to
any significant concentration of credit risk. At December 31, 1995 most of the
Company's receivables related to tickets sold to individual passengers through
the use of major credit cards (47%) or to tickets sold by other airlines (16%)
and used by passengers on TWA. These receivables are short-term, generally being
settled shortly after sale or in the month following usage. Bad debt losses,
which have been minimal in the past, have been considered in establishing
allowances for doubtful accounts.
 
     (q) Use of Estimates:  Management of the Company has made a number of
estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities
and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these
financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
2.  CHAPTER 11 REORGANIZATIONS
 
     On January 31, 1992, TWA commenced a reorganization case by filing a
voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11, Title 11 of the United States
Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Delaware. TWA's subsidiary companies did not file for Chapter 11
protection. On August 12, 1993 the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming
the '93 Reorganization, which was jointly proposed by TWA and the Official
Unsecured Creditors' Committee. The '93 Reorganization became effective on
November 3, 1993.
 
     Pursuant to the '93 Reorganization Plan, on the '93 Effective Date: (i) all
prepetition interests in TWA (including TWA's previously existing preferred
stock, preference stock and common stock) were cancelled without any
consideration being distributed on account of those interests; (ii) nine million
shares of newly authorized TWA common stock, representing 45% of TWA's then
authorized common stock, were issued to

                  TRANS WORLD AIRLINES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
 
           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
 
trusts established for the benefit of TWA's domestic unionized and domestic
non-unionized and management employees (the "Employee Stock Trusts") in exchange
for certain wage, benefit and claim concessions granted pursuant to certain
agreements entered into by TWA with its domestic unionized and domestic non-
unionized and management employees (the " '92 Labor Agreements"); (iii) 11
million shares of newly authorized common stock, representing 55% of TWA's
authorized common stock, were issued to a voting trust established on the '93
Effective Date for the benefit of certain creditors of TWA in partial
satisfaction and discharge of their claims, which trust issued 11 million Voting
Trust Certificates ("VTCs") evidencing the rights of the VTC holders in the
Voting Trust; (iv) 12.5 million shares of newly authorized preferred stock were
issued for the benefit of certain creditors of TWA in partial satisfaction and
discharge of their claims; (v) new five year notes (the "10% Senior Secured
Notes"), new seven year notes (the "8% Senior Secured Notes"), new eight year,
8% secured notes (the "IAM Back Pay Notes"), new equipment trust certificate
notes (the "11% ETC Notes") and Aircraft Financing Secured Notes with varying
interest rates and maturity dates (the "Aircraft Financing Notes"), the
aggregate principal amount of which was approximately $730.6 million, were
issued to certain creditors of TWA in full satisfaction and discharge of their
claims; (vi) all claims except for certain claims to be reinstated under the '93
Reorganization Plan were discharged; (vii) certain contingent and/or
unliquidated claims were settled and (viii) executory contracts and unexpired
leases to which TWA was a party were assumed or rejected, in each case on the
terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the '93 Reorganization. The '93
Reorganization resulted in the discharge of approximately $1.05 billion of
indebtedness.
 
     Notwithstanding the reductions in levels of debt and obligations achieved
through the '93 Reorganization, TWA's operating results and cash flows did not
meet the projected levels upon which the '93 Reorganization Plan was formulated,
and in 1994 it was determined that a recapitalization of the Company was needed.
 
     In the second quarter of 1995, the Company solicited and received
sufficient acceptances to effect the proposed "prepackaged" plan of bankruptcy.
Therefore, on June 30, 1995, the Company filed a prepackaged Chapter 11 plan of
reorganization, which with certain modifications was confirmed by the United
States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Missouri on August 4, 1995.
On August 23, 1995, approximately eight weeks after filing the prepackaged
Chapter 11 plan, the '95 Reorganization became effective and the Company emerged
from the protection of this second Chapter 11 proceeding. In connection with the
'95 Reorganization, the Company (i) exchanged certain of its then outstanding
debt securities for a combination of newly issued Mandatorily Redeemable 12%
Preferred Stock, Common Stock, warrants to purchase Common Stock and debt
securities, (ii) converted the then outstanding preferred stock of the Company
to shares of Common Stock, warrants and equity rights, (iii) obtained certain
short-term lease payment and conditional sale indebtedness deferrals amounting
to approximately $91 million and other modifications to certain aircraft leases
and (iv) obtained an extension of the Company's approximately $190 million
principal amount of indebtedness to certain entities controlled by Mr. Icahn
(the "Icahn Loans"). The Company also (i) effected a reverse stock split of its
then outstanding common stock and exchange such shares for Common Stock, (ii)
completed an equity rights offering, (iii) distributed certain warrants to its
then current equity holders and (iv) implemented certain amendments to the
Company's Certificate of Incorporation.
 
     In connection with and as a precondition to the '95 Reorganization, in
August and September of 1994, the Company entered into new three-year labor
agreements (the " '94 Labor Agreements"), amending existing collective
bargaining agreements with the three labor unions representing approximately 84%
of the Company's employees, the IAM, ALPA and IFFA. The '94 Labor Agreements
provided for an extension of certain previously agreed wage concessions,
modifications to work rules and the deletion of certain provisions of the then
existing labor agreements, including eliminating so called snapbacks, i.e., the
automatic restoration of the wage reductions granted in such agreements at the
end of their term upon their expiration. During 1994 and 1995, the Company also
implemented a number of similar saving initiatives with respect to domestic non-
union and management employees, primarily through reducing head count, altering
benefit packages, and eliminating certain planned restorations of wage
reductions.

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
 
     On June 14, 1995, as one of the transactions contemplated by the extension
of the Icahn Loans, TWA and an entity affiliated with Icahn, Karabu Corporation
("Karabu"), entered into an agreement for the sale of airline tickets (the
"Ticket Agreement"). The Ticket Agreement, among other things, provides for the
sale of two types of tickets: (1) "Domestic Consolidator Tickets" which are
subject to a cap of $610 million, based on the full retail price of the tickets
($120 million in the first fifteen months and $70 million per year for seven
consecutive years through the term of the Ticket Agreement) and (2) "System
Tickets" and "Matching Tickets" which are not subject to any cap throughout the
term of the Ticket Agreement.
 
     Domestic Consolidator Tickets sold under the Ticket Agreement are limited
to certain origin/destination city markets in which TWA has less than a 5%
market share, except for the New York market, which has a 10% market share
limit. These restricted markets will be reviewed from time to time to determine
any change in TWA's market share, and other markets may be designated as
necessary.
 
     The 1995 ticket sales under the Ticket Agreement, which commenced in
September 1995, were $16.0 million. Of this amount, $11.5 million is included as
passenger revenues for the four months ended December 31, 1995 as the related
transportation had been provided.
 
     The purchase price for the tickets purchased by Karabu are required to
either, at Karabu's option and with certain restrictions, be retained by Karabu
and the amount so retained shall be credited as prepayments against the
outstanding balance of the Icahn Loans, or be paid over to the settlement trust
established in connection with the '93 Reorganization for TWA's account as
prepayments on the PBGC Notes. At December 31, 1995, approximately $2.0 million
of such proceeds had been applied to the principal balance of the Icahn Loans,
while no proceeds had been applied to the PBGC Notes.
 
     Tickets sold by the Company to Karabu pursuant to the Ticket Agreement are
priced at levels intended to approximate current competitive discount fares
available in the airline industry. Considering the number of restrictions placed
on Karabu's resale of tickets to the public, this agreement is intended to
produce net incremental revenue to TWA. The Ticket Agreement provides that no
ticket may be included with an origin or destination of St. Louis, nor may any
ticket include flights on other carriers. Tickets sold by Karabu pursuant to the
Ticket Agreement are required to be at fares specified in the Agreement, net to
TWA, and be exclusive of tax. No commissions will be paid by TWA for tickets
sold under the Ticket Agreement, and in general TWA believes that under the
applicable provisions of the Ticket Agreement Karabu may not market or sell such
tickets through travel agents. Karabu, however, has been marketing tickets
through travel agents. TWA has demanded that Karabu cease doing so and Karabu
has stated that it disagrees with the Company's interpretation concerning sales
through travel agents. The Company has informed Karabu that if it does not cease
sales through travel agents, the Company will enforce its rights under the
Ticket Agreement by legal action. In December 1995, the Company filed a lawsuit
against Karabu, Mr. Icahn and certain affiliated companies seeking damages and
to enjoin further violations. Mr. Icahn countered threatening to attempt to
declare a default on the Icahn Loans. Mr. Icahn alleged that there was a default
under the Icahn Loans based on a variety of claims related to his various
interpretations of the security documents applicable to such loans as well as
with respect to alleged violations of the Ticket Agreement by the Company. A
violation of the Ticket Agreement by the Company could result in a cross-default
under the Icahn Loans. Mr. Icahn has also alleged independent violations of the
Icahn Loans, including, among other things, that the Company has not been
maintaining, as required by the terms of the Icahn Loans, certain aircraft which
TWA, has retired from service and stored and which are pledged as security for
the Icahn Loans. To endeavor to eliminate this issue from the various disputes
with Mr. Icahn, the Company has deposited an amount equal to the appraised fair
market value with the security trustee and requested the release of the liens on
such aircraft. To date, the trustee has not released such aircraft. The parties
have negotiated a series of standstill agreements pursuant to which TWA's
original lawsuit was withdrawn, while the Company and Mr. Icahn endeavor to
negotiate a settlement of their differences and respective claims. The latest
extension of such a standstill expires on March 20, 1996. Unless a subsequent
extension to the standstill is entered into, after that date either party will

be free to attempt to enforce their various interpretations of the applicable
agreements. It is entirely possible that Mr. Icahn or one of his affiliates may
file suit against TWA at any time on or after March 20, 1996. The Company may
also file suit against Mr. Icahn. The Company intends to press its claims
vigorously and believes it has meritorious defenses to Mr. Icahn's claims. If
Karabu's interpretation as to sales of discount tickets to the general public
through travel agents was determined by a court or otherwise to be correct and
the Company did not otherwise take appropriate action to mitigate the effect of
such sales, the Company could suffer significant loss of revenue so as to reduce
overall passenger yields on a continuing basis during the term of the Ticket
Agreement. In addition, any default by the Company under the Ticket Agreement or
directly on the Icahn Loans which resulted in an acceleration of the Icahn Loans
could result in a cross-default to the Company's other indebtedness and leases
and otherwise have a material adverse effect on the Company.
 
3.  INVESTMENTS:
 
     TWA, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, has a 25% partnership interest in
WORLDSPAN, a joint venture among TWA, Delta Airlines, Inc., Northwest Airlines,
Inc. ("NWA") and ABACUS Distribution Systems PTE Ltd. WORLDSPAN owns, markets
and operates a global computer airline passenger reservation system on behalf of
subscriber travel agents and contracting airlines who pay booking fees to
WORLDSPAN for such reservation service. Additionally, through another
wholly-owned subsidiary, TWA had a 50% partnership interest in PARS Service
Partnership ("PSP"), which supplied on-line computer services to its two
partners, TWA and NWA, and to WORLDSPAN. TWA accounts for its investments in the
partnerships on the equity basis. TWA's share of the combined net earnings
(loss) of the partnerships was approximately $(11,535,000) for the four months
ended December 31, 1995, $3,607,000 for the eight months ended August 31, 1995,
$(3,616,000) for the year ended December 31, 1994, $(2,636,000) for the two
months ended December 31, 1993, and $5,629,000 for the ten months ended October
31, 1993, which is included in Other Charges (Credits) in TWA's Statements of
Consolidated Operations. The excess of TWA's carrying value for its investment
in WORLDSPAN over its share of the underlying net assets of WORLDSPAN is being
amortized over a period of 20 years. At December 31, 1995 and 1994, the
unamortized balance of this excess amounted to approximately $33.9 million and
$35.8 million, respectively.
 
     The partnerships provide passenger reservations services, communication
facilities and other computer services which are purchased by TWA on a recurring
basis. The aggregate cost of the services purchased from the two partnerships,
which is included in all other operating expenses in TWA's Statements of
Consolidated Operations, is approximately as follows (amounts in thousands):

4.  INCOME TAXES:
 
     Effective January 1, 1993, the Company adopted the liability method of
accounting for income taxes required by SFAS No. 109. In connection with the
adoption of SFAS No. 109, a valuation allowance was established to eliminate the
net deferred tax asset, considering that TWA was operating under Chapter 11 of
the Bankruptcy Code. Accordingly, no adjustment to reflect the cumulative effect
of adoption of SFAS No. 109 was required. As the result of the application of
fresh start reporting in 1993 and 1995, deferred income taxes were recorded to
reflect the income tax effects of adjustments to record the estimated fair
values of assets and liabilities.
 
     Income tax liabilities at December 31, 1995 and 1994, included in other
noncurrent liabilities, consist of the following (amounts in millions):

     The valuation allowance arises primarily from the amortization of
intangibles, representing taxable temporary differences, the reversal of which
extends beyond the period in which deductible temporary differences are expected
to reverse. The net deferred tax liability, after giving effect to the valuation
allowance, arises primarily in years after 2020.

     A provision for income tax on the extraordinary gain from the
extinguishment of debt in the ten months ended October 31, 1993 and eight months
ended August 31, 1995 was not required as such income is excluded from taxation
under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
 
     In May 1993, TWA and the Internal Revenue Service reached an agreement (the
"IRS Settlement") to settle both: (i) the IRS' proof of claim in the '93
Reorganization in the amount of approximately $1.4 billion covering prepetition
employment and income taxes of TWA, and (ii) the audit of TWA's federal income
tax returns through 1992. Pursuant to the IRS Settlement, TWA paid $6 million to
the IRS through the application of funds owed to TWA by certain governmental
agencies and issued a note in the amount of $19 million payable in quarterly
installments over a six year period (also see Note 7-Debt). As a result of the
IRS Settlement, TWA increased its tax basis in certain of its assets and will be
allowed no benefit of any federal net operating loss or credit carry forward
from 1992 or any prior year. Federal income tax losses incurred by TWA
subsequent to 1992 may not be carried back to pre-1993 years.
 
     The Company estimates that it will have, for federal income tax purposes,
net operating loss carryforwards ("NOL's") amounting to approximately $167.0
million at December 31, 1995, which expire in 2008 through 2010 if not utilized
before then to offset taxable income. Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and regulations issued thereunder impose
limitations on the ability of corporations to use NOLs, if the corporation
experiences a more than 50% change in ownership during certain periods. As a
result of such a change in ownership caused by the '95 Reorganization,
utilization of the Company's NOLs will, depending upon certain elections to be
made by the Company, be either substantially restricted (to approximately $12
million per year) or reduced (by approximately $45 million) in future periods.
Any future ownership change may result in the imposition of a significantly
lower annual limitation on the Company's utilization of NOLs and extend the
period over which any benefits are realized therefrom. Moreover, if the Company
elects to reduce its NOLs rather than to apply the $12 million annual limitation
described below, and if another ownership change were to occur during the
two-year period following the '95 Reorganization, the annual limitation on the
Company's utilization of its existing NOLs would be reduced to zero. In
addition, the NOLs are subject to examination by the IRS, and, thus, are subject
to adjustment or

disallowance resulting from any such IRS examination. For financial reporting
purposes, the tax benefits from substantially all of the tax net operating loss
carryforwards will, to the extent realized in future periods, have no impact on
the Company's operating results, but instead, be applied to reduce
reorganization value in excess of amounts allocable to identifiable assets.
 
5.  EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS:
 
     Substantially all of TWA's employees are covered by noncontributory defined
benefit retirement plans. TWA's policy is to fund the defined benefit plans in
amounts necessary for compliance with the funding standards established by the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA").
 
     The retirement plans for pilots, flight attendants and dispatchers provide
benefits determined from career average earnings, with pilots having minimum
benefits after 10 years of service. Employees (other than passenger service
employees) represented by the IAM earn retirement plan benefits of stated
amounts for each year of service. The Retirement Plan for U.S. Noncontract
Employees (including Passenger Service Employees) provides pension benefits that
are based on the employee's compensation during the last five years prior to
retirement, with compensation subsequent to 1988 frozen at the 1988 pay level.
Foreign plans provide benefits that meet or exceed local requirements.
 
     Normal retirement is age 60 for pilots and flight attendants, and age 65
for nonflight personnel. The age at which employees can receive supplemental
benefits for early retirement varies by labor group, but ranges from age 45 to
age 64.
 
     In January 1993, TWA's defined benefit plans covering domestic employees
(the "Pension Plans") were frozen and Pichin Corporation, a Delaware corporation
formed by the Icahn Entities, assumed sponsorship of the Pension Plans and is
now responsible for management and control of the Pension Plans. Pursuant to an
agreement (the "Comprehensive Settlement Agreement") among the Company, the
Icahn Entities, the Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation (the "PBGC") and
unions representing TWA employees, TWA retains only specified obligations and
liabilities in respect of the Pension Plans, which include (i) payment
obligations under the PBGC Notes, and (ii) the obligation to continue to act as
the benefits administrator responsible for, among other things, determining and
administering the payment of Pension Plan benefits (also see Note 7 -- Debt).
 
     Pichin Corporation is obligated to make the required minimum funding
payments to each of the Pension Plans, subject to reduction for any payments
made under the PBGC Notes. The PBGC may not terminate the Pension Plans, except
under section 4042(a)(2) of ERISA or at the request of Pichin Corporation, so
long as the Icahn Entities and Pichin Corporation have complied with all terms
of the Comprehensive Settlement Agreement relating to the PBGC. Upon the
occurrence of certain significant events (as defined) including, but not limited
to, a sale of substantially all of TWA's assets, a merger involving TWA or a
liquidation under Chapter 7 under the Bankruptcy Code, and at the request of
Pichin Corporation, the Pension Plans will be terminated. After such a
termination, the liability of Pichin Corporation and all members of its
controlled group will be limited to an obligation to make annual payments of $30
million to the PBGC for a period of eight years. Mr. Icahn advised TWA that
Pichin Corporation is entitled to terminate the Pension Plans in a non-standard
termination at any time after January 1, 1995.
 
     In connection with the Comprehensive Settlement Agreement, Mr. Icahn and
each of the Icahn Entities surrendered all of the equity and debt securities of
TWA and its affiliates owned beneficially or of record by them. Pursuant to the
Comprehensive Settlement Agreement, each of the parties to the agreement
mutually released the various claims of the other parties to the agreement.
 
     As a result of the consummation of the Comprehensive Settlement Agreement
in the first quarter of 1993, TWA recognized the settlement of its obligation
under the Pension Plans through the issuance of the PBGC Notes, which were
estimated to have a fair value of approximately $300,000,000. The recognition of

the obligation under the PBGC Notes, the elimination of previously recorded
pension liabilities and the elimination of the charge to shareholders' equity
for additional minimum pension liabilities resulted in a charge against earnings
of approximately $342,405,000 in the ten months ended October 31, 1993.
Furthermore, TWA recorded in the first quarter of 1993, as an extraordinary
item, a gain from the early extinguishment of debt resulting from abandonment of
the debt securities held by the Icahn Entities of $172,924,000, representing
TWA's net carrying value of such debt securities.
 
     The net periodic pension expense recorded for TWA's foreign defined benefit
retirement plans is presented below (amounts in thousands).

(a) Plan assets are invested in cash equivalents, international stocks, fixed
     income securities and real estate.
(b) This adjustment represents the amount by which the net pension asset exceeds
     the amount estimated to be recoverable pursuant to a planned termination of
     a pension plan covering certain foreign employees. The foreign laws
     governing the pension plan require the sharing of the surplus funding with
     employees, through benefit improvements and other means, and accordingly,
     TWA expects to receive a lesser amount from the reversion of excess plan
     assets.
 
     TWA has several defined contribution plans covering most of its employees.
Total pension expense for these plans was $14.1 million, $26.8 million, $46.0
million, $7.5 million, and $35.8 million for the four months ended December 31,
1995, the eight months ended August 31, 1995, the year ended December 31, 1994,
the two months ended December 31, 1993 and the ten months ended October 31,
1993, respectively. Such defined contribution plans include: (a) trust plans
established pursuant to collective bargaining agreements with certain employee
groups providing for defined Company contributions generally determined as a
percentage, ranging from 2% to 11%, of pay; and (b) a retirement savings plan
for noncontract employees to which the Company contributes amounts equal to 25%
of voluntary employee after-tax contributions up to a maximum of 10% of the
employee's pay. Pursuant to the '92 Labor Agreements, Company contributions were
suspended for certain defined contribution plans for the period September 1,
1992 through August 31, 1995. Such suspension has been extended through August
31, 1997. In connection with the Comprehensive Settlement Agreement, TWA agreed
to make contributions to defined contribution plans aggregating 2% of eligible
wages for 1993 through 1995, and 3.3% thereafter. The Company made the 1994
contribution payment on June 20, 1995. Commencing on July 1, 1995, TWA is
required to make such contributions on a monthly basis.

     In addition to providing retirement benefits, TWA provides certain health
care and life insurance benefits for retired employees, their spouses and
qualified dependents. Substantially all employees may become eligible for these
benefits if they reach specific retirement age criteria while still actively
employed by TWA.
 
     Effective January 1, 1993, TWA adopted SFAS No. 106. This standard requires
that the expected cost of providing postretirement benefits other than pensions
be accrued over the years that the employee renders service, in a manner similar
to the accounting for pension benefits. As permitted under SFAS 106, TWA
initially began to recognize the excess of the accumulated postretirement
benefit obligation ("APBO") at January 1, 1993 over previously accrued
postretirement benefit costs (the transition obligation) of $370 million ratably
over a period of 20 years. In connection with the adoption of fresh start
reporting in November 1993, TWA recorded a charge of $405.4 million as a
reorganization item to reflect as a liability the entire APBO on such date,
thereby eliminating the previously unrecognized transition obligation.
 
     The following table sets forth a reconciliation of the accrued
postretirement benefit cost as of December 31, 1995 and 1994 (amounts in
millions):

     The discount rate used to determine the APBO was 7.0% at December 31, 1995,
8.5% at December 31, 1994, and 7.0% at December 31, 1993. The discount rate used
to determine net periodic postretirement benefit costs was 7.0% for the four
months ended December 31, 1995, 8.5% for the eight months ended August 31, 1995,
7.0% for the year ended December 31, 1994 and the two months ended December 31,
1993 and 8.5% for the 10 months ended October 31, 1993. The assumed health care
cost trend rate used in measuring the APBO was 9% in 1996 declining by 1% per
year to an ultimate rate of 5%. If the assumed health care cost trend rate was
increased by 1 percentage point, the APBO at December 31, 1995 would be
increased by approximately 8% and 1995 periodic postretirement benefit cost
would increase approximately 10%.

6.  CONTINGENCIES:
 
     On July 15, 1993, a complaint was filed in the Circuit Court for the City
of St. Louis against TWA by five named plaintiffs on behalf of a purported class
of approximately 300 similarly situated persons. The complaint alleged that
false representations were made to recruits for tuition-based reservation agent
training at the Trans World Travel Academy regarding job prospects with TWA in
violation of the Missouri Merchandising Practices Act. Plaintiffs seek refunds
of tuition and compensatory and punitive damages of at least $10 million. TWA
removed the action from the Circuit Court to the United States District Court
for the Eastern District of Missouri and plaintiffs have moved to remand it back
to the Circuit Court. TWA believes this case will not materially impact the
Company.
 
     During 1992, TWA and several other major airlines agreed to settle certain
class action antitrust litigation. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, which
was approved by the United States District Court for the Northern District of
Georgia in 1994, TWA paid $1 million and, together with five other carriers,
issued approximately $400 million in face amount of certificates for discounts
of approximately 10% on future domestic air travel on any of the six carriers.
TWA will reflect the certificates that are redeemed for travel on TWA as a
reduction in revenue as the transportation is provided. While TWA presently does
not have any reason to expect that the face amount of the discount coupons that
will be redeemed for travel on TWA in the future will not reasonably approximate
the face amount of discount coupons that TWA contributed to the settlement, it
is reasonably possible that the actual face amount of discount coupons redeemed
by TWA could be substantially different, considering the interchangeability of
the discount coupons and that the face amount of the discount coupons
contributed by all of the participating carriers and distributed to claimants
aggregated approximately $400 million. Therefore, while the settlement agreement
could have the effect of reducing TWA's future revenues and cash flows from
levels that might otherwise be realized, because of the uncertainties as to the
face amount of the discount coupons that will ultimately be redeemed by TWA and
uncertainties as to the impact that the distribution of discount coupons will
have on traffic levels, TWA is unable to reasonably estimate any such effects.
 
     On October 22, 1991, a judgment in the amount of $12,336,127 was entered
against TWA in an action in the New York District Court by Travellers
International A.G. and its parent company, Windsor, Inc. (collectively,
"Travellers"). On November 4, 1991, TWA posted a cash undertaking of
$13,693,101, which was charged to expense, for a stay of execution of the
judgment pending the appeal. On March 10, 1992, the Company commenced an
adversary proceeding against Travellers in the Bankruptcy Court seeking to avoid
the cash undertaking on the grounds that it constitutes a preferential transfer
or, in the alternative, to find that the cash undertaking constitutes property
of the estate. In March 1993, Travellers filed a petition for a writ of
certiorari in the United States Supreme Court seeking to require TWA to litigate
its claims against Travellers in the New York District Court and not the
Bankruptcy Court. The petition was denied by the United States Supreme Court in
April 1993. A trial of the adversary proceeding took place in Bankruptcy Court
in February 1994 and in December of 1994, the Bankruptcy Court reached a
decision in this proceeding which is favorable to the Company. However, the
decision has been appealed by Travellers. Pursuant to the Icahn Financing
Facilities, amounts received pursuant to these proceedings must be used to
repay, in part, TWA's obligations thereunder.
 
     In June 1985, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA")
conducted a site inspection of TWA's maintenance overhaul base in Kansas City,
Missouri and indicated its intention to bring an enforcement proceeding against
TWA under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, alleging
violations resulting from TWA's past hazardous waste disposal and related
environmental practices. On May 31, 1988, the EPA filed an administrative
complaint within its agency seeking civil penalties as well as other relief
requiring TWA to take remedial procedures at the overhaul base.
 
     Simultaneously, TWA became a party to a consent agreement and a consent
order with the EPA pursuant to which TWA paid in 1988 a civil penalty of
$100,000 and agreed to implement a schedule of

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
 
remedial and corrective actions and to perform environmental audits at TWA's
major maintenance facilities. In September 1989, TWA and the EPA signed an
administrative order of consent in connection with the hazardous waste
management activities identified in the site inspection described above, which
required TWA to conduct extensive investigations at or near the overhaul base
and to recommend remedial action alternatives. TWA completed its investigations
and on February 17, 1996, submitted a Corrective Measures Study ("CMS") to the
Missouri Department of Natural Resources ("MDNR") and the EPA. It is anticipated
that review and approval of the CMS by the MDNR and the EPA will take several
months. Upon approval of the CMS, an additional order will be issued and the
required corrective actions implemented. TWA presently estimates the cost of the
corrective action activities under the existing and anticipated orders to be
approximately $7.0 million, a majority of which represents costs associated with
long-term groundwater monitoring and operation and maintenance of the remedial
systems. Although the Company believes adequate reserves have been provided for
all known environmental contingencies, it is possible that additional reserves
might be required in the future which could have a material effect on the
results of operations or financial condition of the Company. However, the
Company believes that the ultimate resolution of known environmental
contingencies should not have a material adverse effect on the financial
position or results of operations based on the Company's knowledge of similar
environmental sites.
 
     Since May 1991, TWA's employees in Israel have claimed that the Company
should be required to collateralize its contingent payment of termination
indemnities. This matter deals only with collateralization of a contingent
payment obligation. The employees have asserted that the amount necessary to
collateralize the contingent payment of termination indemnities could be as much
as $25 million. The Company denies any obligation to collateralize and asserts
that any obligation to collateralize any termination indemnity is not a current
obligation.
 
     In February 1995, a number of actions were commenced in various federal
district courts against TWA and six other major airlines alleging that the
companies conspired and agreed to fix, lower and maintain travel agent
commissions on the sale of tickets for domestic air travel in violation of the
United States antitrust laws. Generally the complaints in these actions seek
treble damages and injunctive relief on behalf of a nationwide class of travel
agents. Certain of these actions also claim violations of various state laws. On
May 9, 1995 TWA announced settlement, subject to court approval, of the
referenced actions and reinstated the traditional 10 percent commission on
domestic air fares. A final court order has not yet been entered; however, there
has been entered an interim order approving the settlement.
 
     On November 9, 1995, ValuJet Air Lines, Inc. ("ValuJet") instituted a
lawsuit against TWA and Delta Air Lines ("Delta") in the United States District
Court for the Northern District of Georgia, alleging breach of contract and
violations of certain antitrust laws with respect to the Company's lease of
certain takeoff and landing slots at LaGuardia International Airport in New
York. On November 17, 1995, the court denied ValuJet's motion to temporarily
enjoin the lease transaction and the Company and Delta consummated the lease of
the slots. ValuJet has subsequently amended its original complaint and all
parties are undertaking legal discovery with respect to the amended complaint.
The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in this action and believes all
of the allegations contained therein lack merit.
 
     In addition, based on certain written grievances or complaints filed by
ValuJet, the Company has been informed that the United States Department of
Justice, Antitrust Division is investigating the circumstances of the slot lease
transaction to determine whether an antitrust violation has occurred. The
Company is cooperating in this investigation and believes that the slot lease
transaction did not violate any antitrust laws.
 
     On January 10, 1996, a complaint was filed by an individual resident of New
York, Joel Gerber, relating to the slot lease transaction. Mr. Gerber purports
to bring the action on his own behalf as well as on behalf of an unspecified
number of purported class members who have or will travel between LaGuardia and
Atlanta as of November 1, 1995 claiming damages as the result of alleged
antitrust violations and conspiracy to commit same against the Company and
Delta. The Court has not certified the New York action as a class action. The

Company will vigorously contest all of the class action allegations as well as
all allegations of liability and damages in the New York action and will seek a
transfer of the New York action to the same federal court where the Atlanta
action is pending.
 
     On September 6, 1995 TWA announced that the operations of its wholly owned
subsidiary, Trans World Express, Inc. ("TWE"), would be discontinued on November
6, 1995. TWA has entered into an agreement with an unaffiliated entity, Trans
States Airlines, Inc., to provide feeder service into TWA's JFK hub, which
commenced on November 7, 1995. TWE is proceeding with an orderly liquidation and
has reached agreement with substantially all of its creditors relating to the
settlement of obligations and claims. TWA does not currently expect that the
liquidation of TWE will have a material adverse impact on the financial position
or results of operations of TWA.
 
7.  DEBT:
 
     Substantially all of TWA's assets are subject to liens and security
interests relating to long-term debt and other agreements.

(a)  The 12% Senior Secured Reset Notes due 1998 pay interest semi-annually
     beginning August 1, 1995, with interest payable either in cash or, as to
     the first four interest payments, at the Company's option, in whole or in
     part, in Common Stock, subject to certain conditions. The Company elected
     to pay interest due and payable for the first two periods in Common Stock.
     The notes are reflected net of unamortized discount of $24.8 million at
     December 31, 1995, to reflect an effective interest rate of 17.4%. The
     notes are secured by: (i) a first lien on certain slots, equipment and
     spare parts; (ii) a lien on the stock of a wholly owned subsidiary which
     owns TWA's interest in a hangar at Los Angeles International Airport; and
     (iii) a floating first lien on certain of TWA's domestic airport ground
     equipment.
 
(b)  The Contingent Payment Rights, arising under the terms of the '95
     Reorganization, will be paid in 1996 and are secured by the same collateral
     as the 12% Senior Secured Reset Notes.

(c)  The 10% Senior Secured Notes due 1998 and 8% Senior Secured Notes due 2000
     were cancelled as of the '95 Effective Date. The 10% and 8% Senior Secured
     Notes are reflected net of discounts aggregating approximately $54.0
     million and $170.2 million at December 31, 1994, resulting in effective
     rates of approximately 19.1% and 22.9%, respectively.
 
(d)  The 8% IAM Backpay Notes have a stated principal amount of $22.9 million
     and are reflected net of unamortized discount of $11.9 million and $12.6
     million at December 31, 1995 and 1994 respectively, to reflect an effective
     interest rate of approximately 25.6%. The notes mature in 2001 and pay
     interest semi-annually. The notes are secured by a subordinate lien on
     TWA's interest in WORLDSPAN and a lien on approximately $2.2 million in
     proceeds from the sale of Midcoast Aviation.
 
(e)  At December 31, 1995 the PBGC Notes, issued in exchange for the 11% PBGC
     Notes as part of the '95 Reorganization, have a stated principal amount of
     $244.3 million, and are reflected net of unamortized discount of $43.2
     million at December 31, 1995, to reflect an effective interest rate of
     approximately 11.75%. Interest on the PBGC Notes is payable semi-annually
     at an average stated rate of 8.19% per annum (subject to an increase in
     1998 of up to 9.4% if the trading value of TWA's Common Stock does not
     exceed certain levels). Principal payments are due in semi-annual
     installments beginning in 1999 through 2007 subject to acceleration under
     certain circumstances. The PBGC Notes are non-recourse notes secured by
     first liens on TWA's international routes and TWA's leasehold interest in
     the Kansas City maintenance facility and certain fixtures and equipment.
     The PBGC Notes are subject to various mandatory prepayment provisions in
     the event of a sale by TWA of collateral securing the PBGC Notes or in the
     event of a transfer of substantially all of TWA's assets in a sale, merger
     or otherwise.
 
(f)  The Icahn Loans include a $75 million Asset Based Facility and a $125
     million Receivables Facility, which had principal balances of $70.5 million
     and $117.5 million, respectively, at December 31, 1995. Interest is payable
     monthly at a rate of prime plus 1.75% per annum. On June 14, 1995, the
     Company signed an agreement with Karabu to extend the term of the Icahn
     Loans, from January 8, 1995 to January 8, 2001. Collateral for the Icahn
     Loans include a number of aircraft, engines and related equipment, along
     with substantially all of the Company's receivables. The notes evidencing
     the Icahn Loans are security for certain obligations of the Icahn Entities
     to the PBGC. See Note 2-Chapter 11 Reorganizations.
 
(g)  The Equipment Trust Certificates pay interest semi-annually, beginning
     March 31, 1994, at a rate of 11% per annum and are subject to mandatory
     redemptions beginning in April 1994 and continuing until September 1997.
     The certificates are secured by certain aircraft, engines and other
     equipment.
 
(h)  Various Secured Notes represent borrowings to finance the purchase or lease
     of certain flight equipment and other property.
 
(i)   Installment Purchase Agreements represent borrowings to finance the
      purchase of four Boeing 767-231 aircraft. The borrowings mature in annual
      installments through 2003, and require interest at rates ranging from
      10.44% to 10.53% per annum.
 
(j)   The IRS Deferral Note represents unpaid amounts due under the terms of a
      settlement reached in 1993 for taxes and interest owed to the IRS (also
      see Note 4-Income Taxes). The note requires payment of interest quarterly
      at a rate of 7% per annum and matures in 1999.
 
(k)  The WORLDSPAN Note represents amounts owed to WORLDSPAN, a 25% owned
     affiliate of TWA, for prior services and advances. The note pays interest
     at maturity at a rate of prime plus 1% per annum and matures in 1999. The
     note is secured by a pledge of TWA's partnership interest in Worldspan.

     All long-term debt was classified as current at December 31, 1994 as the
result of certain alleged defaults and related cross default provisions
contained in substantially all of TWA's debt agreements. TWA discontinued,
effective June 30, 1995 and February 1, 1992, the accrual of interest on
prepetition debt that was unsecured or estimated to be undersecured through the
'95 Effective Date and the '93 Effective Date, respectively. Contractual
interest expense for the eight months ended August 31, 1995 was approximately
$18.7 million in excess of reported interest expense. Contractual interest
expense for the ten months ended October 31, 1993 was approximately $133.1
million in excess of reported interest expense.
 
     The Company's debt agreements contain various limitations on the payment of
dividends on, or the redemption of, common stock or preferred stock. Generally,
TWA may not declare or pay cash dividends or other distributions on the
Company's Common or Preferred Stock (the "Restricted Payments"), if the
aggregate of such Restricted Payments shall exceed the sum of: (i) 50% of the
cumulative consolidated net income of the Company, if any, subsequent to the '95
Effective Date, plus (ii) the aggregate net proceeds received by the Company
from the issue or sale subsequent to the '95 Effective Date of any common or
preferred stock or from the exercise of any options, warrants or rights to
purchase any common stock or preferred stock, except for any such proceeds which
the Company elects to apply to the concurrent purchase, redemption, retirement
or other acquisition of any shares of the Company's common or preferred stock,
less (iii) the cumulative consolidated net loss of the Company subsequent to the
'95 Effective Date.
 
8.  LEASES AND RELATED GUARANTEES:
 
     Eighteen of the aircraft in the Company's fleet at December 31, 1995 were
leased under capital leases. The remaining lease periods for these aircraft
range from two to eleven years. The Company has options and/or rights of first
refusal to purchase or re-lease most of such aircraft at market terms upon
termination of the lease. The Company has guaranteed repayment of certain of the
debt issued by the owner/lessor to finance some of the aircraft under capital
lease to the Company; however, the scheduled rental payments will exceed the
principal and interest payments required of the owner/lessor. Aggregate annual
rentals in 1996 will be approximately $42.2 million for the 18 aircraft held
under capital leases.
 
     One hundred twenty-one of the aircraft in TWA's fleet at December 31, 1995
were leased under operating leases. Other than five leases on a month-to-month
basis, the remaining lease periods range from one month to 16 years. Upon
expiration of the current leases, TWA has the option to re-lease most of such
aircraft for specific terms and/or rentals with some of the renewal options
being subject to fair market rental rates.
 
     Buildings and facilities leased under capital and operating leases are
primarily for airport terminals and air transportation support facilities.
Leases of equipment, other than flight equipment, include some of the equipment
at airports and maintenance facilities, flight simulators, computers and other
properties.
 
     Pursuant to an agreement between the City of St. Louis and TWA in November
1993 (the "Asset Purchase Agreement"), the City of St. Louis waived a $5.3
million pre-petition claim and provided TWA with two installments of $24.7
million and $40 million pursuant to sale/leaseback transactions involving
certain of

TWA's assets located at the Lambert-St. Louis Airport and other property and
assets located in St. Louis including gates, terminal support facilities at the
airport, hangar/St. Louis Ground Operations Center complex, Flight Training
Center, and equipment and tenant improvements at these various St. Louis
facilities.
 
     Under the Asset Purchase Agreement, TWA leased back the properties involved
under a month-to-month agreement subject to automatic renewal so long as TWA is
not in default thereunder, such agreement having a term otherwise expiring
December 31, 2005. Such term is subject to early termination in the event of
certain events of default, including non-payment of rents, cessation of service,
or failure to relocate and maintain its corporate headquarters within the City
or County of St. Louis, or relocate and maintain a reservations office within
the City of St. Louis. Under the Asset Purchase Agreement, TWA has the right to
use 57 gates and terminal support facilities at Lambert-St. Louis Airport. The
City has certain rights of redesignation of TWA's gates in the event TWA's
flight activity at St. Louis is reduced below a threshold level of 190 daily
flight departures during any given monthly period. The related leases are
classified as capital leases for financial reporting purposes.
 
     The Company's acquisition of 11 new aircraft during 1982 and 1983, one
Lockheed L-1011 and ten Boeing 767s, created certain tax benefits that were not
of immediate value in the Company's federal income tax returns and, therefore,
such tax benefits were sold to outside parties under so-called "Safe Harbor
Leases" as permitted by IRS regulations. Pursuant to the sales agreements, the
Company is required to indemnify the several purchasers if the tax benefits
cannot be used because of circumstances within the control of the Company. As of
December 31, 1995, the Company's contingent indemnification obligations in
connection with the tax benefit transfers were collateralized by bank letters of
credit aggregating $11,778,000, for which the Company has posted $11,778,000 in
cash collateral to secure its reimbursement obligations and the bank letters of
credit. In addition, the Company has pledged $7,596,000 in cash collateral to
secure its obligation with respect to four of the tax benefit transfers and has
pledged flight equipment having a net book value of $24,871,000 to secure its
obligation with respect to two of the tax benefit transfers.
 
     At December 31, 1995, future minimum lease payments for capital leases and

9.  MANDATORILY REDEEMABLE 12% PREFERRED STOCK:
 
     Pursuant to the '95 Reorganization, the Company issued 1,089,991 shares of
the 1,510,000 authorized shares of Mandatorily Redeemable 12% Preferred Stock to
the holders of the 8% Senior Secured Notes. The Mandatorily Redeemable 12%
Preferred Stock has an aggregate redemption value of approximately $109.0
million, and is cumulative, having an initial liquidation preference of $100 per
share. Commencing November 1995, dividends accrue at the rate of 12% of the
liquidation preference per share per annum, payable quarterly in arrears on the
first day of each February, May, August, and November. Subject to certain
limitations, the dividend may be paid in Common Stock at the option of the
Company, and the Company elected to pay the February 1, 1996 dividend in Common
Stock and subsequently issued 317,145 shares. For purposes of determining the
number of shares of Common Stock to distribute, such Common Stock is valued at
90% of the fair market value, based upon trading prices for the 20 days prior to
the record date for the dividend payment.
 
     Under the terms of Mandatorily Redeemable 12% Preferred Stock, TWA is
generally prohibited from declaring or paying dividends in cash, evidences of
indebtedness, property, or other stock of TWA ranking on parity with or senior
to the Mandatorily Redeemable 12% Preferred Stock, unless dividends on the
Mandatorily Redeemable 12% Preferred Stock are being paid in cash. The dividend,
redemption and liquidation rights of the Mandatorily Redeemable 12% Preferred
Stock are senior to the Employee Preferred Stock and common stock. If TWA fails
to pay dividends in cash or Common Stock for an aggregate of six dividend
payment dates, holders of the Mandatorily Redeemable 12% Preferred Stock will
have the right to elect one director to serve on the Board of Directors of TWA.
The Mandatorily Redeemable 12% Preferred Stock is redeemable on May 1, 2005,
subject to a requirement to redeem on May 1, 2002 if the amount of dividends
paid in cash do not satisfy certain requirements. Subject to certain conditions,
TWA may elect to exchange the Mandatorily Redeemable 12% Preferred Stock for 11%
subordinated exchange notes at the rate of $100 principal amount for each $100
of liquidation preference. The Mandatorily Redeemable 12% Preferred Stock is
subject to redemption, at the option of TWA, at a redemption price per share
equal to 75% of the liquidation value on or before May 1, 1997, and increasing
amounts thereafter through the final redemption date.
 
     TWA Gate Holdings, Inc. ("Gate Holdings"), a wholly owned subsidiary of
TWA, has guaranteed the full and complete payment of amounts payable with
respect to the liquidation preference, redemption price, and accrued and unpaid
dividends of the Mandatorily Redeemable 12% Preferred Stock (or in the event of
exchange, the 11% subordinated exchange notes). The Gate Holdings guarantee
provides that Gate Holdings will make any payments required with respect to the
Mandatorily Redeemable 12% Preferred Stock if TWA shall fail to make such
payment. Furthermore, Gate Holdings is required to pay the liquidation
preference and any unpaid and accrued dividends on the Mandatorily Redeemable
12% Preferred Stock in the event of a default under the pledge agreement. The
Gate Holdings guarantee is secured by a pledge of all of the capital

stock of certain of its subsidiaries previously established in the '93
Reorganization, which were assigned TWA's leasehold interest in the gates and
related facilities at the various domestic airports served by TWA (other than
gates at St. Louis' Lambert Airport), which were in turn subleased to TWA. The
Gate Holdings guarantee is further secured by a pledge of TWA's rights to net
proceeds of all domestic gates now or hereafter leased by TWA (exclusive of the
St. Louis gates) and a capital note, as further described below. Furthermore,
Gate Holdings is subject to covenants which limit the creation of further liens
and encumbrances on its assets, limiting mergers, consolidations and transfers
of assets, prohibiting the issuance of additional shares, limiting dividends and
repurchases of its common stock and limiting the incurrence of indebtedness.
 
     Pursuant to the '95 Reorganization, TWA contributed a note in the principal
amount of $25 million in exchange for the assignment by a subsidiary of Gate
Holdings of its leasehold interest in certain gates at LaGuardia, JFK and Newark
airports to TWA.

10.  CAPITAL STOCK:
 
     The Company has the authority to issue 300 million shares of capital stock,
consisting of 150 million shares of Common Stock, 12.5 million shares of
cumulative preferred stock and 137.5 million additional shares of preferred
stock. On the '95 Effective Date, TWA issued approximately 17.2 million shares
of Common Stock, 6.4 million shares of Employee Preferred Stock (including
approximately 1.7 million shares which are attributable to ALPA represented
employees, see Note 11), equity rights for the purchase of approximately 13.2
million shares of Common Stock, warrants for the purchase of approximately 1.7
million shares of Common Stock exercisable over a seven year period at $14.40
per share (the "Seven Year Warrants"), warrants for the purchase of up to 1.15
million shares of Common Stock (for nominal

consideration), and $109.0 million aggregate liquidation value of Mandatorily
Redeemable 12% Preferred Stock.
 
     Subsequently, TWA issued 2.07 million additional shares of Common Stock to
previous holders of TWA's 10% Senior Secured Notes based upon the subsequent
trading prices of securities distributed pursuant to the '95 Reorganization.
Additionally, TWA distributed 1.887 million additional shares of Common Stock in
payment of interest on the 12% Senior Secured Reset Notes.
 
     The Employee Preferred Stock is the functional equivalent of Common Stock
except for an exclusive right to elect a certain number of directors to the
Board of Directors and its liquidation preference of $0.01 per share. Employee
Preferred Stock does not have redemption rights. Each share will automatically
convert into one share of Common Stock upon the withdrawal of such share from
the employee stock trust in which such share is held.
 
     In October 1995, TWA received approximately $55.3 million in gross proceeds
from the exercise of 13,206,247 equity rights, representing substantially all of
the related proceeds, and issued 13,206,247 shares of Common Stock. The Company
paid a fee of approximately $3.4 million in September 1995 to certain standby
purchasers of shares covered by the equity rights.
 
     At December 31, 1995 there were 1,746,874 Seven Year Warrants outstanding.
Additionally, 402,525 warrants for the purchase of Common Stock for nominal
consideration were outstanding at December 31, 1995.
 
     The Company has adopted the 1994 Key Employee Stock Incentive Plan (the
"KESIP") which provides for the award of incentive and nonqualified stock
options for up to 7% of the Company's post-Restructuring Common Stock and
Employee Preferred Stock outstanding as of the first vesting date under the
KESIP, excluding any Common Stock issued after the '95 Effective Date not
related to the '95 Reorganization. Options granted under the KESIP have a five
year life and vest at a rate of 34% upon the first anniversary of the award
date, 33% upon the second and 33% upon the third anniversary of the award date.
At December 31, 1995 options for 2,243,146 shares had been granted under the
KESIP at exercise prices ranging from $4.64 to $11.68. Operating results include
charges of $0.02 million and $0.02 million for the eight months ended August 31,
1995 and the four months ended December 31, 1995, respectively, to reflect the
excess of the market price of the Common Stock on the date of grant over the
exercise price, over the vesting period.
 
     In December 1995, the Company adopted a Shareholders Rights Plan. Each
holder of Common Stock or Employee Preferred Stock received a dividend of one
right for each share, entitling the holder to buy one one-hundredth of a share
of a new series of preferred stock at a purchase price of $47.50. The rights may
become exercisable only under certain conditions whereby certain persons (as
defined) become the owner of or commence a tender offer for certain specified
percentages of TWA's voting stock and may be redeemed by TWA at $0.01 per right
prior to such time. In the event the rights become exercisable, holders would be
entitled to receive, without payment of a purchase price, additional shares of
Common Stock or be entitled to purchase Common Stock having a market value of
twice the purchase price.
 
     Pursuant to the '95 Reorganization, each of the 12.5 million shares of the
then existing preferred stock were converted into, and holders received, 0.1024
shares of Common Stock, 0.0512 equity rights and 0.1180 Seven Year Warrants.
Additionally, holders of then existing common stock, other than shares held by
trusts for employees, received 0.0213 shares of Common Stock, 0.0107 Equity
Rights and 0.0246 Seven Year Warrants.
 
11.  EARNED STOCK COMPENSATION:
 
     Pursuant to the '94 Labor Agreements, the Company agreed to provide not
less than 30% of the Common Stock and Employee Preferred Stock of the Company on
a post-restructured basis in exchange for these
 
                                      F-32

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
 
concessions (as well as in consideration for their prior equity ownership, which
was 45% prior to the 1995 Restructuring). On the '95 Effective Date,
approximately 4.7 million shares of Employee Preferred Stock and 1.0 million
shares of Common Stock were distributed and allocated to employees through
employee stock ownership plans for the benefit of union (other than the ALPA
represented employees) and noncontract employees, respectively. The distribution
of these shares resulted in a charge to operations in the eight months ended
August 31, 1995 of $43.2 million, based upon the market price of TWA's Common
Stock at the time.
 
     Additionally, a "Rabbi Trust" was established to receive the distribution
of approximately 1.7 million shares of Employee Preferred Stock attributable to
ALPA represented employees. The Rabbi Trust will distribute to an employee
benefit plan (the "ESOP") one-third of the shares annually beginning August
1995, subject to certain conditions. Accordingly, operating results in the eight
months ended August 31, 1995 include a charge of approximately $4.3 million,
representing the value of the shares allocated at such time, based upon the
market price of TWA's Common Stock. The operating results for the four months
ended December 31, 1995 includes a proportionate charge of approximately $2.0
million for the shares to be allocated to ALPA represented employees in 1996,
based upon the then current market price of TWA's Common Stock. The charge to
earnings for shares to be allocated to ALPA represented employees in the future
will be based upon the value of the shares at that time. Accordingly, material
changes in this non-cash charge may occur in periods prior to the allocation of
the shares and such changes may be unrelated to the Company's operating
performance during such periods.
 
     Operating results for the eight months ended August 31, 1995 include a
non-cash charge of approximately $8.0 million, representing the excess of the
fair market value of the shares distributed to employees over the purchase price
paid for shares which were sold to employees pursuant to the Equity Rights
offering.
 
     Pursuant to the '94 Labor Agreements and the '95 Reorganization, the
Company has adopted a seven year employee stock incentive program (the "ESIP")
pursuant to which TWA will grant its union and non-union employees additional
shares of Employee Preferred Stock and Common Stock (the "Incentive Shares"),
respectively, and such employees will be entitled to purchase additional shares
of such stock under certain circumstances through an employee stock purchase
arrangement. The ESIP has been designed to enable TWA's employees to increase
their level of ownership from 30% to 40%, subject to potential dilution from a
non-proportionate exercise of the Equity Rights in October 1995 and from any
subsequent issuance of Common Stock, of the combined total number of outstanding
Common Stock and Employee Preferred Stock over the five year period commencing
in July 1997.
 
     The first stock grant under the ESIP is to be made on July 15, 1997 in an
amount that would increase the level of employee ownership by 2% of the combined
total number of then outstanding shares of Common Stock and Employee Preferred
if the average trading price of the Common Stock over a thirty day period
exceeds a target price of $11.00 per share following January 1, 1997 or would be
made on any date thereafter if the average trading price of the Common Stock
over a thirty day period exceeds such target price. In subsequent years through
the end of the seven year term of the ESIP, the increase in the number of shares
of Employee Preferred Stock to be granted under this program would be equivalent
to 1.5% in 1998, 1.5% in 1999, 1.0% in 2000, 1.0% in 2001 and 1.0% in 2002 of
the combined total number of shares of Common Stock and Employee Preferred Stock
outstanding at the time, and the target prices would increase to $12.10 in 1998,
$13.31 in 1999, $14.64 in 2000, $16.11 in 2001 and $17.72 in 2002. If TWA issues
additional shares of Common Stock with an aggregate value of more than $20
million to third parties for cash or a reduction in debt at a price equal to or
greater then $11.00 per share, the last two scheduled installments of the ESIP
would be aggregated and these shares allocated equally to the remaining
installments in the program other than those which were scheduled to be made in
2001 and 2002. In addition, pursuant to the ESIP, employees would have the right
after July 15, 1997, to purchase over the seven year term of the ESIP additional
shares of Employee Preferred Stock in amounts up to an aggregate of 2% of the
combined total number of outstanding Common Stock and Employee Preferred Stock
at a discount of 20% from the market price. The employees' right to

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
 
purchase additional shares of Employee Preferred Stock would be accelerated and
become immediately exercisable if there is a merger, sale or consolidation of
TWA (where TWA is not the surviving entity) at a merger, sale or consolidation
price equivalent to in excess of $17.72 per share of Common Stock at a 20%
discount from the merger, sale or consolidation price relating to such a
transaction.
 
     The ESIP provides for the grant of additional shares under certain
circumstances if the percentage of employee ownership should be reduced below
specified levels as a result of the issuance of additional Common Stock to third
parties. In the event of a merger, sale or consolidation of TWA where TWA is not
the surviving entity, the grants are generally accelerated if the target prices
are achieved and, under certain circumstances, additional grants will be made.
 
     The ESIP also provides that if additional shares are distributed following
the '95 Effective Date in respect of the '95 Reorganization, employees will be
entitled to receive an additional number of shares of Common Stock and Employee
Preferred Stock such that the employees will retain the same level of ownership.
No shares have as yet been distributed to employees under this provision and
discussions are being held with union representatives to determine the
appropriate number of shares to be distributed. The Company believes that, based
on these discussions, no more than approximately 950,000 additional shares will
be distributed. The number of shares of Employee Preferred Stock outstanding at
December 31, 1995 does not reflect any such additional shares.
 
12.  EXTRAORDINARY ITEMS:
 
     The extraordinary gain recorded in the four months ended December 31, 1995
was due to the cancellation of debt as a result of a settlement between TWE, a
subsidiary, and an aircraft lessor. The extraordinary gain recorded in the eight
months ended August 31, 1995 was for the discharge of indebtedness pursuant to
the Company's '95 Reorganization.
 
     The extraordinary charge recorded in 1994 was for a prepayment premium of
approximately $2,005,000 related to the sale and lease back of four McDonnell
Douglas MD-80 aircraft.
 
     The extraordinary gain recorded in the ten months ended October 31, 1993
included $172,924,000 from the cancellation in January 1993 of TWA debt
securities held by certain Icahn Entities pursuant to the Comprehensive
Settlement Agreement and $902,657,000 from the discharge of indebtedness
pursuant to the consummation of the '93 Reorganization.
 
13.  DISPOSITION OF ASSETS:
 
     Disposition of assets resulted in net gains of approximately $3,330,000 and
$1,072,000 for the four months ended December 31, 1995 and full year 1994,
respectively, and net losses of $206,000, $348,000 and $2,617,000 for the eight
months ended August 31, 1995, the two months ended December 31, 1993 and ten
months ended October 31, 1993, respectively.
 
     In November 1995, TWA entered into an agreement to sublease certain of
TWA's leased commissary facilities in Los Angeles. As part of this agreement,
TWA sold its commissary furnishings and equipment, resulting in a gain of $2.0
million.
 
     The 1994 net gain included a gain of approximately $1.3 million on the
divestiture of three subsidiaries, Midcoast Aviation, Inc., Travel Marketing
Services, Inc., and World Marketing Services, Inc.
 
     On April 30, 1993, affiliates of TWA and NWA sold substantially all the
assets and liabilities of PSP to Worldspan (also see Note 3 -- Investments). The
sale resulted in a loss of $1.0 million.

14.  SPECIAL CHARGES AND OTHER NONRECURRING ITEMS:
 
     The operating income for the eight months ended August 31, 1995, includes a
special charge of $1.7 million for shut-down related expenses of TWE.
 
     The 1994 operating loss includes an aggregate of $175.1 million in costs
associated with special charges and nonrecurring items as further described
below.
 
     In the fourth quarter of 1994, TWA recorded a charge of $36.3 million to
salaries, wages and benefits to reflect the estimated portion of the obligation
earned to date for payments due to employees represented by the IAM for overtime
savings in excess of certain targeted levels established in the '92 Labor
Agreement. The amount of this liability has been subsequently reduced to $26.3
million because of certain credits allowed pursuant to the '92 Labor Agreement
and a further reduction related to an agreement to reduce proportionately the
obligation based upon the size of the reduction of indebtedness achieved by the
'95 Reorganization. The payments will be made in three equal annual
installments, beginning in 1998. The IAM has subsequently indicated that it does
not agree with the Company's method of computing the amount of the obligation
and believes that the amount owed is greater, although they have not indicated
any specific amount. The Company does not believe that the IAM is correct in
their interpretation of the amount of the obligation and that the amount owed is
properly reflected in the consolidated financial statements.
 
     During 1994, TWA undertook several strategic operational initiatives to
improve its competitiveness and reduce its cost structure. Special charges
recorded in 1994 include the following principal components: (i) approximately
$61 million to reflect the write-off of the carrying value of certain
international route authorities which were no longer expected to be utilized in
connection with the restructuring of such operations, (ii) approximately $34
million to reflect the write-off of pre-delivery payments and related
capitalized interest for certain aircraft on order (also see Note 16 -- Aircraft
Commitments), (iii) approximately $24 million to reflect the reduction in the
carrying value of certain owned aircraft and spare parts which, under the
Company's fleet plan, are expected to be retired and sold and (iv) approximately
$15 million for furlough pay and severance costs related to reduction in the
number of employees.

     TWA has entered into purchase agreements with AVSA, S.A.R.L. ("AVSA"), a
subsidiary of Airbus Industrie, G.I.E., and with Rolls-Royce plc ("RR"),
relating to the purchase of certain aircraft and engines, modules and spare
parts to support those aircraft.
 
     The AVSA Agreement, as amended, includes the following provisions: (i) the
delivery of ten A330-300 twin-engine wide body aircraft ("firm aircraft") to TWA
beginning in 1999; (ii) allows TWA the option to purchase ten additional
aircraft ("option aircraft"); (iii) requires TWA to make predelivery payments
totaling nineteen percent of the cost of each aircraft due in installments
beginning the thirty-sixth month prior to delivery of each aircraft; (iv)
requires AVSA to finance, if certain conditions are met, all predelivery
payments except the installment due the first day of the thirtieth month prior
to delivery.
 
     As a result of the rescheduling of delivery dates, the requirement to
resume issuance of promissory notes was deferred until April 1996, and TWA
agreed to make a cash payment on October 1, 1996 in the principal amount of
$893,025 plus interest. Additionally, TWA would be required to issue promissory
notes to AVSA in the principal amount of approximately $4.3 million in the
months of April, May, June, July and September of 1996. TWA has not yet made
arrangements for the permanent financing of the A330 aircraft ordered pursuant
to the AVSA Agreement. In the event of cancellation of the AVSA Agreement,
prepayments amounting to approximately $14 million would be subject to
forfeiture.
 
     During 1990, TWA executed agreements with RR (the "Equipment Agreement")
relating to the purchase of RR engines, modules, and spare parts to support the
original 20 firm and 20 option AVSA aircraft. In addition, RR agreed to provide
product support with respect to the transaction and to purchase certain
promissory notes from TWA to help TWA fund predelivery payments due RR and AVSA
as well as certain spares from RR. To secure the promissory notes, TWA assigned
to RR TWA's rights under the AVSA Agreement and the Equipment Agreement.
 
     On October 26, 1993 the Equipment Agreement was amended to include the
following provisions: (i) the quantities of spare engine equipment to be
purchased by TWA was reduced from nine to six units, which reduced the initial
predelivery deposit required and estimated aggregate cost to $3.9 million and
$39 million, respectively; (ii) requires TWA to pay to RR 30% of the cost of the
equipment in installments prior to delivery and the balance of the cost at
delivery; (iii) TWA's promissory note dated January 18, 1991, for approximately
$26 million was reinstated in a principal amount of approximately $27.4 million,
which represented the principal amount of the original note plus interest due on
that note; (iv) required TWA to assume a spare parts purchase agreement dated
December 31, 1990 and to pay cure payments in the approximate amount of $2.7
million in two equal installments on June 1, 1994 and June 1, 1995; and (v) RR's
obligation to purchase additional notes from TWA under the original equipment
agreement was eliminated.

RR will, however, reduce the amount of TWA's promissory note by approximately
$1.3 million for any firm order aircraft subsequently cancelled by AVSA. During
July 1995, RR consented to the deferral and rescheduling by TWA and AVSA of A330
aircraft delivery dates, which will defer performance by RR under the Equipment
Agreement. In the event of cancellation of the Equipment Agreement, predelivery
payments amounting to approximately $3.9 million made by TWA with respect to the
Equipment Agreement would be subject to forfeiture.
 
     In February 1996, TWA entered into a purchase agreement (the "Purchase
Agreement") with the Boeing Company ("Boeing") to purchase ten Boeing Model
757-231 aircraft. The Company has secured financial commitments for the aircraft
from engine and airframe manufacturers for an estimated aggregate amount of $420
million. The Purchase Price for the aircraft and related spare parts and
equipment is approximately $550 million. The final purchase price of each
aircraft, is subject to certain economic adjustment factors as defined in the
Purchase Agreement. The aircraft are scheduled for delivery in 1997, 1998, and
1999. The Company also received the right, subject to certain conditions, to
purchase up to 20 additional aircraft from the manufacturer.
 
     TWA is required to make certain predelivery payments at various dates prior
to the delivery of each aircraft. Concurrent with the Purchase Agreement, TWA
entered into a separate agreement to obtain financing for a portion of these
predelivery payments. Total aircraft predelivery payments required to be paid by
TWA, net of the financing obtained, are approximately $25.6 million in 1996 and
$20.7 million in 1997.
 
17.  FRESH START REPORTING:
 
     Pursuant to SOP 90-7, TWA adopted fresh start reporting which has resulted
in the creation of a new reporting entity and the Company's assets and
liabilities being adjusted to reflect fair values on the '95 Effective Date. For
accounting purposes, the '95 Effective Date was deemed to be September 1, 1995.
In the fresh start reporting, an aggregate value of $270 million was assigned to
TWA's Common Stock and Employee Preferred Stock. These values were established
by management with the assistance of its financial advisors. These valuations
considered TWA's expected future performance, relevant industry and economic
conditions, and analyses and comparisons with comparable companies.
 
     The reorganization value of TWA has been allocated to the Reorganized
Company's assets and liabilities in a manner similar to the purchase method of
accounting for a business combination. Management obtained valuations from
independent third parties which, along with other market and related information
and analyses, were utilized in assigning fair values to assets and liabilities.
A summary of the impact of the '95 Reorganization and the related fresh start
adjustments is presented below. The fresh start adjustments resulted in, among
other things, the allocation of substantial amounts to reorganization value in
excess of amounts allocable to identifiable assets, the amortization of which,
while not requiring the use of cash, will significantly affect future operating
results.

(a) To record the discharge of indebtedness pursuant to the '95 Reorganization
     and reclassification of debt between current and non-current based upon its
     revised terms. Debt securities, Mandatorily Redeemable 12% Preferred Stock,
     Ticket Vouchers and Contingent Payment Rights issued pursuant to the '95
     Reorganization have been recorded at their estimated fair values. The
     excess of indebtedness eliminated over the fair value of securities issued
     in settlement of those claims, approximately $140.9 million, is reflected
     as an extraordinary item in the eight months ended August 31, 1995.
 
(b) To record adjustments to reflect assets and liabilities at fair values. The
     adjustments to record the fair values of assets and liabilities resulted in
     a nonrecurring charge to reorganization items of approximately $228.8
     million in the eight months ended August 31, 1995. Charges to
     reorganization items were recorded for various fees and expenses related to
     the consummation of the '95 Reorganization aggregating approximately $13.4
     million. Significant elements of the adjustments to record the fair value
     of assets and liabilities are summarized below:
 
     -- Adjustments to reflect the fair value of owned property and equipment
        under capital leases.
     -- Adjustments to reflect the fair value of TWA's international route
        authorities, take-off and landing time slots and airport gate
        leaseholds.
     -- Adjustments to record the present value of the liabilities for
        postretirement medical and life insurance benefits and certain foreign
        pension plans to reflect the current postretirement benefit obligation
        and projected benefit obligation, respectively, utilizing current
        discount rates.
     -- An adjustment to reduce deferred income taxes to reflect the impact of
        the preceding adjustments.
 
(c) To record adjustments to reflect the elimination of the remaining deficit in
     shareholders' equity after the adjustments arising from (a) and (b) above
     and to reflect the associated reorganization value in excess of amounts
     allocable to identifiable assets.
 
     In 1993 TWA applied fresh start reporting, in accordance with SOP 90-7,
which resulted in the creation of a new reporting entity and the Company's
assets and liabilities being adjusted to reflect fair values on the '93
Effective Date. For accounting purposes, the '93 Effective Date was deemed to be
November 1, 1993. In the fresh start reporting, aggregate values of $75 million
and $31.25 million were assigned to TWA's newly authorized common stock and
newly authorized preferred stock, respectively. These values were established by
management with the assistance of its financial advisors. These valuations
considered TWA's expected future performance, relevant industry and economic
conditions, and analyses and comparisons with comparable companies at that time.
 
     The reorganization value of TWA was allocated to the Company's assets and
liabilities in a manner similar to the purchase method of accounting for a
business combination. Management obtained valuations from independent third
parties which, along with other market and related information and analyses,
were utilized in assigning fair values to assets and liabilities. The excess of
the reorganization value over the fair value of identifiable tangible and
intangible assets has been reflected in the Company's balance sheet as
reorganization value in excess of amounts allocable to identifiable assets.

(a) To record the discharge of indebtedness pursuant to the '93 Reorganization
    Plan and reclassification of debt and capital lease obligations between
    current and non-current based upon their revised terms. Cash and cash
    equivalents reflect the receipt of approximately $143 million of amounts
    held in escrow (included in other investments and receivables) and the
    payment of approximately $102 million to holders of the 15% Senior Secured
    Notes on the '93 Effective Date. Additionally, the adjustment to cash and
    cash equivalents reflects the receipt of approximately $25 million in net
    proceeds from the sale and leaseback of certain assets on the '93 Effective
    Date. Debt securities issued pursuant to the '93 Reorganization were
    recorded at their estimated fair value on the '93 Effective Date. The excess
    of indebtedness eliminated over the fair value of securities issued in
    settlement of those claims, approximately $902.7 million, is reflected as an
    extraordinary item in the ten months ended October 31, 1993.
 
(b) To record adjustments to reflect assets and liabilities at fair values. The
    adjustments to record the fair values of assets and liabilities resulted in
    a nonrecurring credit to reorganization items of approximately $339.6
    million in the ten months ended October 31, 1993. Charges to reorganization
    items were recorded for various items related to the consummation of the '93
    Reorganization aggregating approximately $45.1 million. Such charges
    included a charge of $33.8 million relating to the value of nine million
    shares of common stock contributed to employee trusts on the '93 Effective
    Date, pursuant to the '93 Reorganization, estimated costs of the relocation
    of TWA's corporate headquarters to St. Louis of approximately $10.2 million
    and various other fees and expenses associated with the consummation of the
    '93 Reorganization. Significant elements of the adjustments to record the
    fair value of assets and liabilities are summarized below:
 
     -- Adjustments to reflect the fair value of owned property and equipment
        under capital leases.
     -- Adjustments to reflect the fair value of TWA's interest in affiliated
        companies, including Worldspan.
     -- Adjustments to reflect the fair value of TWA's international route
        authorities, take-off and landing time slots and airport gate
        leaseholds.
     -- Adjustments to reflect the fair value of capital lease obligations using
        current rates of interest.
     -- An adjustment of $405.4 million to accrue the accumulated postretirement
        benefit obligation, including the unamortized transition obligation
        related to SFAS No. 106.
     -- An adjustment of $14.8 million to record the excess of projected benefit
        obligations over plan assets of TWA's pension plans covering certain
        foreign employees and the estimated impact of the pending termination of
        one of the pension plans.
     -- An adjustment of $66.4 million to record a deferred credit representing
        the present value of the excess of contractual aircraft rents over
        current fair market rents during the remaining term of aircraft
        operating leases.
     -- An adjustment of $16 million to record deferred income taxes.
 
(c) To record adjustments to reflect the elimination of the remaining deficit in
    shareholders' equity after the adjustments arising from (a) and (b) above
    and to reflect the associated excess of reorganization value over amounts
    allocable to identifiable assets.

     The results for each period include all adjustments which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the
interim periods.

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
 
     The consolidated financial results on an interim basis are not necessarily
indicative of future financial results on either an interim or annual basis.
TWA's air transportation business is highly seasonal with the second and third
quarters of the calendar year historically producing substantially better
operating results than the first and fourth quarters.
 
     The results for the fourth quarter of 1995 include several adjustments to
operating expenses to reflect changes in estimates, including a reduction in
passenger sales commissions of approximately $6.7 million and a reduction in
employee benefits and workers compensation costs of $6.2 million.
 
     The results for the fourth quarter of 1994 include a reduction of
non-operating expenses of approximately $21.1 million to reflect reductions of
certain liabilities which were estimated on the '93 Effective Date, including
obligations for payments of professional fees and expenses, certain priority
taxes and other similar obligations. Subsequent negotiations, settlements and
Bankruptcy Court orders during 1994 substantially reduced these estimated
liabilities.
 
     The results for the fourth quarter of 1994 also include a charge to
operating expenses of approximately $36.3 million to reflect an obligation for
payments due employees represented by the IAM (also See Note 14 -- Special
Charges and Other Nonrecurring Items).
 
     The results for the second quarter of 1994 include a reduction of operating
expenses of approximately $11.7 million to reflect the receipt by TWA of a
refund of certain landing fee charges and other related items from the British
government. The refund was received in settlement of TWA's claim for excess
charges during the period 1982 to 1989.
 
19.  FOREIGN OPERATIONS:
 
     TWA conducts operations in various foreign countries, principally in Europe
and the Middle East. Operating revenues from foreign operations were
approximately $228.7 million in the four months ended December 31, 1995, $474.4
million in the eight months ended August 31, 1995, $794.1 million in the year
ended December 31, 1994, $107.1 million in the two months ended December 31,
1993 and $660.5 million in the ten months ended October 31, 1993.
 
20.  DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:
 
     SFAS No. 107, "Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments"
requires disclosures with regards to fair values of all financial instruments,
whether recognized or not recognized in the balance sheet, subject to certain
exceptions. Solely for purposes of complying with this accounting standard, the
Company has estimated the fair value of certain of its financial instruments, as
further described below. Because no market exists for a significant portion of
TWA's financial instruments, fair value estimates provided below are based on
judgments regarding current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various
financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in
nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and
therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could
significantly affect the estimates. The discussion of financial instruments
below conforms with the presentation in the Consolidated Balance Sheet and
relates to the amounts at December 31, 1995 and 1994.
 
          (a) Cash, cash equivalents and receivables:  The carrying amounts of
     these assets is estimated to approximate fair value due to the generally
     short maturities of these instruments.
 
          (b) Other investments and receivables:  The carrying amount of these
     assets are estimated to approximate fair value due to the generally short
     maturities of the underlying instruments which are, however, classified as
     long-term assets because TWA's ability to access these amounts is generally
     restricted by contractual provisions.

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
 
          (c) Accounts payable and other accrued liabilities:  The carrying
     amount of these liabilities are estimated to approximate fair value due to
     the generally short maturities of these instruments.
 
          (d) Debt:  At December 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, approximately
     $145.2 million and $337.9 million, respectively, of the carrying value of
     TWA's debt was traded publicly. The aggregate market value of such debt was
     approximately $160.4 million and $194.8 million on those dates,
     respectively. The Company believes the fair value of the remaining debt
     which had an aggregate carrying value of approximately $686.4 million and
     $764.2 million at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, was
     approximately $644.5 million and $616.0 million on those dates.
 
          (e) Mandatorily Redeemable 12% Preferred Stock:  At December 31, 1995
     the carrying value of TWA's Mandatorily Redeemable 12% Preferred Stock was
     $61.4 million. The aggregate market value of such stock was approximately
     $74.1 million on this date.

of Trans World Airlines, Inc. (the "Corporation"), a corporation organized and
existing under and by virtue of the provisions of the General Corporation Law of
the State of Delaware ("GCL"), does hereby certify on behalf of the Corporation
as follows:
 
     That pursuant to the provisions of Section 245 of the GCL, the

<PAGE>   2

Preferred Stock (collectively, the "Preferred Stock Designation").
 
     Section 3.  Common Stock.  Except as may otherwise be provided in the
Preferred Stock Designation or any Additional Preferred Stock Designation (as
hereinafter defined), the holders of Common Stock will be entitled to one vote
for each share of Common Stock held of record by such holder as of the record

stockholders and (ii) for each of the directors to be elected at an annual
meeting of shareholders. Except as may otherwise be provided in the Preferred

payable in cash, stock or otherwise, and (ii) upon any liquidation, dissolution
or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, the
remaining net assets of the Corporation shall be distributed pro rata to the
holders of the Common Stock in accordance with their respective rights and
interests.
 
     Section 4.  Additional Preferred Stock.  The Additional Preferred Stock
shall be issued in one or more series. The Board is hereby authorized to issue
shares of Additional Preferred Stock and to fix before issuance the number of
shares to be issued and the designation, relative powers, preferences, and
rights and qualifications, limitations, or restrictions of all shares. The
authority of the Board will include, without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the determination of any or all of the following: (a) the number of

provisions, if any, including the redemption price or prices to be paid; (d)

     ARTICLE SIXTH.  The Board may make, amend, and repeal the By-Laws of the
Corporation. Any By-Law made by the Board under the powers conferred hereby may
be amended or repealed by the Board (except as specified in any such By-Law so
made or amended) or by the Corporation's stockholders in the manner provided in
the By-Laws of the Corporation; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything
in the By-Laws to the contrary, no provision of the By-Laws may be adopted,
amended, altered or repealed by the holders of the Company's capital stock other
than by the affirmative vote of the holders of three-fourths or more of the then
outstanding shares of Voting Stock (defined below) voting together as a single
class. The Corporation may in its By-Laws confer powers upon the Board in
addition to the foregoing and in addition to the powers and authorities
expressly conferred upon the Board by applicable law. For the purposes of this
Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the term "Voting
Stock" means stock of the Corporation of all classes and series entitled to vote
generally in the election of directors and shall not include any class or series
of preferred stock of the Corporation unless the certificate of designations,
preferences and rights for such class or series shall specifically state that
such class or series shall be deemed Voting Stock for purposes of this Article
Sixth. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Second Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation to the contrary, the affirmative vote of the
holders of at least three-fourths of the Voting Stock, voting together as a
single class, is required to amend or repeal, or to adopt any provisions
inconsistent with, this Article Sixth.
 
     ARTICLE SEVENTH.  The existence of the Corporation shall be perpetual.
 
     ARTICLE EIGHTH.  Subject to the rights of holders of Preferred Stock or
Additional Preferred Stock:
 
          (a) any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders
     of the Corporation must be effected at duly called annual or special
     meeting of stockholders of the Corporation and may not be effected by any
     consent in writing of such stockholders; and
 
                                        2
<PAGE>   3
 
          (b) special meetings of stockholders of the Corporation may be called
     only by (i) the Chairman of the Board (the "Chairman"), (ii) the Corporate
     Secretary of the Corporation (the "Secretary") within ten (10) calendar
     days after receipt of the written request of a majority of the total number
     of Directors that the Corporation would have if there were no vacancies,
     provided, however, that the total number of Directors shall be determined
     without inclusion of Directors to be named by holders of Preferred Stock or
     Additional Preferred Stock until such persons have been elected in
     accordance with the By-Laws of Corporation (the "Whole Board"), and (iii)
     as provided in Section 2.3(b) of the By-Laws. At any annual meeting or
     special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation, only such business will
     be conducted or considered as has been brought before such meeting in the
     manner provided in the By-Laws of the Corporation. Notwithstanding anything
     contained in this Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation
     to the contrary, the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the Voting
     Stock, voting together as a single class, will be required to amend or
     repeal, or adopt any provision inconsistent with, this Article Eighth.
 
     ARTICLE NINTH.  Section 1.  Number, Election and Terms of Directors.  The
Board shall be reconstituted pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization and Section
303 of the GCL. Subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of Preferred Stock
to elect additional Directors under circumstances specified in the Preferred
Stock Designation, the number of Directors of the Corporation shall be fifteen
(15). The Directors, other than those who may be elected by the holders of
Preferred Stock, shall be classified with respect to the time for which they
severally hold office into three (3) classes of five (5) Directors per class,
designated Class I, Class II and Class III. Effective upon November 3, 1993, the
following persons shall be Directors of the Corporation pursuant to the
Confirmation Order and Section 303 of the GCL: in Class I, William R. Howard,
Glenn R. Zander, Robert H. H. Wilson, Eugene Conese, Sr. and Lawrence K. Roos;
in Class II, Gerald Gitner, Myron Kaplan, William O'Driscoll, William Compton
and Victoria Frankovich; in Class III, James A. Lawrence, Thomas Meagher, Joseph
Reddington, Donald Craib and Timothy Connolly. The Directors first appointed to
Class I will hold office for a term expiring at the annual meeting of
stockholders to be held in 1994; the Directors first appointed to Class II will
hold office for a term expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held
in 1995; and the Directors first appointed to Class III will hold office for a
term expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 1996. The
members of each such class will hold office until their successors are elected
and qualified. The subsequent terms of service for all Directors will be three
(3) years for the second term and one (1) year for each term thereafter for all
Directors, regardless of their classification. Subject to the rights, if any, of
the holders of Preferred Stock to elect additional Directors under circumstances
specified in the Preferred Stock Designation, Directors may be elected by the
stockholders only at an annual meeting of stockholders. Election of Directors
need not be by written ballot unless requested by the Chairman or by the holders
of a majority of the Voting Stock present in person or represented by proxy at a
meeting of the stockholders at which Directors are to be elected.
 
     Section 2.  Nomination of Director Candidates.  Except as otherwise
provided herein, advance notice of stockholder nominations for the election of
Directors must be given in the manner provided in the By-Laws of the
Corporation. The reconstituted Board of Directors, as set forth in Section 1 of
this Article Ninth, was nominated as follows: the management of the Corporation
nominated William R. Howard, Glenn R. Zander, and Robert H. H. Wilson as
Directors in Class I; the Creditors' Committee (as hereinafter defined)
nominated Eugene Conese, Sr. and Lawrence K. Roos as Directors in Class I,
Gerald Gitner and Myron Kaplan as Directors in Class II and James A. Lawrence,
Thomas Meagher, Joseph Reddington and Donald Craib as Directors in Class III;
IAM (as hereinafter defined) nominated William O'Driscoll as a Director in Class
II and Timothy Connolly as a Director in Class III; ALPA (as hereinafter
defined) nominated William Compton as a Director in Class II; and IFFA nominated
Victoria Frankovich as a Director in Class II. In connection with the first
three annual elections of Directors following November 3, 1993, the Board will,
at least seventy-five (75) calendar days prior to the date of the relevant
election, request the continuing Directors who were nominated by the same
Original Nominating Entity (as hereinafter defined) as the Director whose term
is then expiring to nominate a person to succeed the retiring Director. If no
such Directors remain, the Board will, at least seventy-five (75) calendar days
prior to the date of the relevant election, request nomination of a person from
such Original Nominating Entity. Such nomination shall be accompanied by the
signed consent of the nominee to serve as Director of the Corporation if elected
and information about the
 
                                        3
<PAGE>   4
 
nominee as would be required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant
to the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission had the nominee
been nominated, or intended to be nominated, by the Board. Not more than five
(5) business days after receipt of the nomination, the Board of Directors will
advise the nominating Directors or the Original Nominating Entity, as the case
may be, if the nominee is not acceptable. If such notice of unacceptability is
given, the Directors or entity making the nomination will provide an additional
nominee or nominees. A notice of unacceptability may be given by the Board of
Directors only after obtaining an opinion of outside counsel stating that the
acceptance of the relevant nominee would be a breach of fiduciary duty of the
Board to the stockholders of the Corporation. If no notice of unacceptability is
given, the nominee shall be deemed to be acceptable to the Board of Directors to
fill the position of the vacating director. If a notice of unacceptability is
given, the Original Nominating Entity or Directors, as the case may be, and the
Board of Directors will, in good faith, repeat the foregoing procedures until an
acceptable nominee is found.
 
     Vacancies on the Board created by resignation, removal or otherwise and
occurring prior to the third annual election of Directors and as to Directors
elected at such third annual election shall be filled by a nominee of the
remaining Directors who were nominated by the same Original Nominating Entity as
the vacating Director. If no such Directors remain, the Board will request
nomination of a person for the vacant directorship from the Original Nominating
Entity which nominated the vacating Director. Promptly upon receipt of such
name, the Board will advise the nominating Director or entity, as the case may
be, if the nominee is not acceptable. If such notice of unacceptability is
given, the Directors or entity making the nomination will provide an additional
nominee or nominees. A notice of unacceptability may be given by the Board only

3.  TICKET PRICES.

        (a)  Tickets sold to Karabu pursuant to the Ticket Programs
contemplated by this Agreement shall be priced at the Purchase Price, net to
TWA, which shall be: (i) the Domestic Consolidator Fare which shall be 40% of
the applicable Published Fare determined in accordance with this Agreement
excluding Exhibit A hereto; (ii) the System Fare which shall be fifty-five
percent (55%) of the Published Fare; or (iii) the International Consolidator
Fare, and (iv) the Domestic Consolidator Matching Fare.

        The Purchase Price is exclusive of tax.  All applicable taxes, fees,
fuel, passenger facility, terminal and security charges which are not included
in the Published Fares or in the International Consolidator Fare(s) or the
Domestic Consolidator Fare(s) or the Domestic Consolidator Matching Fare and
which are charged to persons paying such fares must be added to the total fare
collected.  Karabu may not absorb any passenger facility or similar such
surcharge otherwise due from a passenger.  The Published Fare for each Ticket
sold at the Purchase Price under this Agreement will be shown on the face of
each Ticket unless the Ticket is issued at a Consolidator Fare or at a Tour
Operator/Wholesaler Matching Fare in which case the fare code "Bulk Fare" or
such similar terms as TWA may from time to time designate for use generally on
tickets sold to Consolidators (other than Karabu) and/or Tour
Operators/Wholesalers will be shown on the face of such tickets with the Bulk
Fare Rate and the applicable Published Fare shown on the auditor's coupon for
each such Ticket.

        Karabu shall be responsible for proper ticketing under the correct fare
code and under all such other terms as may be set forth in this Agreement,
including but not limited to Exhibits A and B hereto and under all other
applicable terms and conditions as may be required by TWA and which are
required by TWA on the sales of tickets

                                      -8-

<PAGE>   9
generally and any failure to show the correct fare code will not diminish the
Purchase Price payable to TWA. In the event that TWA itself issues any Tickets,
Karabu shall not be responsible for ticketing errors on such Tickets. Any
Tickets that are refundable or reissuable only upon payment of a fee or other
penalty or charge, will be permitted to be refunded or reissued without payment
of any such fee, penalty or charge except that Domestic Consolidator Matching
Tickets are subject to the same refund, reissue and penalty rules as are
applicable to the tickets being offered by the Consolidator (Domestic) whose
fare is being matched. Except for Domestic Consolidator Tickets, other Tickets
which are totally non-refundable may be applied in full to the purchase of
other Tickets without fee, penalty or charge.

        (b) During the terms of the ticket Programs, Karabu will be entitled to
elect to purchase Tickets from TWA from time-to-time pursuant to such Ticket
Programs, at its option and subject to all applicable conditions with respect
to each Ticket at the Purchase Price which shall be:

                (i) fifty-five percent (55%) of Published Fare(s), net to TWA,
                    or

               (ii) the International Consolidator Fare(s); or

              (iii) the Domestic Consolidator Fare(s), or

               (iv) the Domestic Consolidator Matching Fare(s), or

                (v) Tour Operator/Wholesaler Matching Fare(s).

        (c) With respect to transportation originating in the United States and
destined for a point outside of the United States, TWA will provide
International Consolidator Fare(s) to Karabu under the same price conditions as
TWA is then providing to any other Consolidator (International) operating in
International Consolidator Markets, exclusive of special promotional items or
services of de minimus value that may be provided to other Consolidators in
connection with specific, limited promotional activities. TWA will provide to
Karabu such information and at the same time as TWA provides in the normal
course to other Consolidators (International) operating in International
Consolidator Markets and upon Karabu's written request, TWA will provide to
Karabu a list of then applicable Bulk Fare Rates charged to Consolidators
(International) operating in TWA's International Consolidator Markets.

        (d) With respect to transportation originating outside of the United
States and destined for a point in the United States, Karabu may at its option
sell Tickets at International Consolidator Fares for such passenger
transportation under the same conditions as TWA is then providing to any other
Consolidator (International) which is then selling tickets for transportation
originating at points outside of the United States


                                      -9-


<PAGE>   10
in International Consolidator Markets. Such Tickets at International
Consolidator Fares for transportation originating outside of the United States
may only be sold by an Icahn Entity which is an IATA approved agency and is
otherwise operating in compliance with the laws of the nation in which the
transportation is sold and in which the transportation originates and which
otherwise complies with the sales reporting procedures otherwise applicable to
tickets sold by others outside of the United States which currently includes
but are not limited to bank settlement plans.

        (e) TWA will provide Domestic Consolidator Fares to Karabu only in
accordance with the rules, terms and conditions which are set forth herein and
in Exhibits A and B which are attached hereto and made a part hereof.

        (f) in the event that TWA currently has or in the future enters into an
agreement with a Consolidator(s) (Domestic) for the sale of transportation in
the Domestic Consolidator Markets at Bulk Fare Rates which are equal to or less
than the Purchase Price to Karabu of a Comparable Fare, TWA, shall for such
period of time as such Bulk Fare Rate remains in effect, reduce the Purchase
Price to Karabu to an amount that is 10% lower than the Bulk Fare Rate provided
to the Consolidator(s) (Domestic) and Tickets issued at such lower rate shall
be Domestic Consolidator Tickets. For the purposes of this section, the Bulk
Fare Rate provided to the Consolidator (Domestic) is exclusive of special
promotional items or services of de minimus value such as luggage tags, drink
chits, travel bags or similar such items that may be provided to other
Consolidators (Domestic) in connection with specific, limited promotional
activities.

        (g) TWA agrees that it will provide to Karabu a written summary of any
agreement(s) which it now has or which it may in the future enter into with
any: (i) Consolidator(s) (Domestic) and/or, (ii) with any Tour
Operator(s)/Wholesaler(s) for the sale of inclusive tour packages for travel
within the United States. Such summaries shall set out the Bulk Fare Rates for
markets covered by any such agreement(s) including all applicable terms and
conditions applicable to the reservations, sale, ticketing and use of such Bulk
Fare Rates. Summaries of all such agreements currently in effect will be
provided to Karabu within ten (10) business days following the execution of
this Agreement. Summaries of any amendments to such existing agreements or of
any new agreements entered into during the Term of this Agreement, upon
execution by both parties to such amendments or agreements, shall be provided
to Karabu promptly but in any event no later than the earlier of within five
(5) business days of execution by both parties or within five (5) business days
prior to the effectiveness for use of the Bulk Fare Rates covered by such
amendments or agreements. If any Consolidator (Domestic) or Tour
Operator/Wholesaler can purchase tickets from TWA at a Bulk Fare Rate in a
market which is less than the System Fare in the same market which is a
Comparable Fare to such Bulk Fare Rate, then Karabu shall have the right to buy
Tickets at the Domestic Consolidator Matching


                                    -10-

<PAGE>   11
Fare in such market or at the Bulk Fare Rate provided to the Tour
Operator/Wholesaler in such market (under the same terms, conditions and rules
as may be applicable to such Bulk Fare Rate; the "Tour Operator/Wholesaler
Matching Fare") as the case may be. Karabu and TWA agree that in view of the
complexity and changing nature of fares in individual city pair markets, which
has the effect of changing the Purchase Price of fares in such individual
markets, it is not possible for TWA to determine with accuracy on a continuing
basis the differential between Bulk Fare Rates provided to such Consolidator(s)
(Domestic) and/or Tour Operator(s)/Wholesaler(s) in all markets and System
Fares which are Comparable Fares to such Bulk Fare Rates in the same markets.
The occurrence of any such differential(s) shall not at any time constitute a
violation of this Agreement including but not limited to the terms set out in
Section 12 hereunder.

        (h) For the purposes of the foregoing clauses of this Section 3
concerning Bulk Fare Rates offered by TWA to other Consolidators (Domestic) and
Tour Operator(s)/Wholesaler(s), in comparing the Purchase Price to Karabu with
Bulk Fare Rates charged to other Consolidators (Domestic) and Tour
Operator(s)/Wholesaler(s), the Bulk Fare Rates charged to other Consolidators
(Domestic) and Tour Operator(s)/Wholesaler(s) shall be net of any commissions
or the value (determined by TWA in good faith) of other economic incentives
paid or allowed to such other Consolidators (Domestic) and Tour
Operator(s)/Wholesaler(s), including advertising allowances.

4. NO COMMISSIONS PAYABLE. No commissions shall be payable by TWA for Tickets
sold pursuant to this Agreement.

5. ADDITIONAL TICKET RESTRICTIONS. Tickets sold by TWA to Karabu pursuant to
this Agreement shall:

                (i) not include Tickets whose origin or destination is St.
Louis, Missouri;

               (ii) not include flights on other carriers operated under a code
share and/or block space arrangement;

              (iii) be sold without any public advertisement or public promotion
referring directly or indirectly to TWA in any way (including without 
limitation, any written advertisement through newspaper and/or facsimile 
solicitations;

               (iv) not during the Fifteen Month Period and during any 
subsequent Year of the Ticket Program exceed the amount of Domestic 
Consolidator Tickets permitted to be purchased by Karabu pursuant to Section 
2(a)(i) or Section 2 (a)(ii)



                                      -11-


<PAGE>   12
hereunder, respectively (each such Fifteen Month Period and Yearly limit being
referred to as a "Period Cap") provided however that if the Period Cap is
exceeded, TWA shall notify Karabu in writing and with specific detail of the
amount of Domestic Consolidator Tickets sold in excess of the Period Cap and
unless Karabu shall in writing within ten (10) business days of its receipt of
such information identify errors in the calculation, Karabu shall promptly pay
to TWA the difference between the Purchase Price and the applicable Published
Fare for all Domestic Consolidator Tickets sold in excess of the Period Cap
which are not in dispute and thereafter shall promptly pay the same difference
in amounts for all Domestic Consolidator Tickets for which any additional proof
of sale within the applicable period is required.  For the purposes of
determining the specific Domestic Consolidator Tickets which exceed the Period
Cap, all Domestic Consolidator Tickets sold after the date during the Fifteen
Month Period or during any subsequent Year on which the Period Cap was exceeded
will be treated as excess; and

        (v) not in any one month period during the Term exceed more than 40% of
the Fifteen Month Period or Yearly total of Domestic Consolidator Tickets
permitted to be purchased by Karabu pursuant to Section 2(a)(i) or Section
2(a)(ii) hereof respectively (a "Monthly Cap"), provided, however, that if the
Monthly Cap is exceeded, TWA shall notify Karabu in writing and with specific
detail of the amount of Domestic Consolidator Tickets sold in excess of the
Monthly Cap and unless Karabu shall in writing within ten (10) business days of
its receipt of such information identify errors in the calculation, Karabu
shall promptly pay to TWA the difference between the Purchase Price and the
applicable Published Fare for all Domestic Consolidator Tickets sold in excess
of the Monthly Cap which are not in dispute and thereafter shall promptly pay
the same difference in amounts for all Domestic Consolidator Tickets for which
any additional proof of sale within the applicable period is required.  For
the purposes of determining the specific Domestic Consolidator Tickets which
exceed the Monthly Cap, all Domestic Consolidator Tickets sold after the date
during the month on which the Monthly Cap was exceeded will be treated as
excess. 

6. APPLICABILITY OF FREQUENT FLIER PROGRAM. The Frequent Flyer Bonus Program
will apply to Tickets sold pursuant to the Ticket Programs, subject to
applicable rules as provided for by the Frequent Flyer Bonus Program and
further provided that the Frequent Flyer Bonus Program will not apply to
Domestic Consolidator Matching Tickets, International Consolidator Matching
Tickets and Tickets sold at Tour Operator/Wholesaler Matching Fares if the
tickets sold to the Consolidator (Domestic), Consolidator (International) or
the Tour Operator/Wholesaler, as the case may be, at the fare being matched are
not eligible for the Frequent Flyer Bonus Program.  As full compensation to TWA
for participation in the Frequent flyer Program as provided herein and without
regard to the actual miles traveled, Karabu shall pay to TWA: (I) $428,571
during the Fifteen Month Period in four (4) equal installments on the six
month, nine month, twelve month and fifteen month anniversary 

                                      -12-
<PAGE>   13

of the Commencement Date, and (ii) in each Year following the Fifteen Month
Period, $250,000 in four (4) equal quarterly installments on the three month,
six month, nine month and twelve month anniversary of the first day of such
Year.

7.  OTHER TICKET RESTRICTIONS.  All Tickets sold pursuant to the Ticket
Programs shall be subject to TWA's normal seat assignment and boarding pass
rules and regulations.  In addition, Tickets will be valid only on TWA flights,
will be non-assignable to any other carrier and non-endorsable and, to the
extent applicable under TWA's Published Fares, be non-refundable, except as may
be otherwise set forth herein.  Except as expressly provided in Sections 2 and
3 and Exhibit A hereof, the administration and use of Tickets will adhere to
all applicable fare rules.  All Tickets will be plated on TWA on standard
industry or TWA ticket stock or through any other electronic or "ticketless"
method that TWA may from time-to-time adopt.

8.  DISTRIBUTION OF TICKETS.  Tickets sold pursuant to the Ticket Program
(other than Tickets sold by Karabu at Consolidator Fares referred to in clauses
(ii) (iii) (iv), and (v) of Section 3(b) and Sections 3(f), (g) and (h) hereof)
shall be marketed and sold by Karabu or its agents or a Travel Agent only to
the End User and not to any Travel Agent, Consolidator, or Tour
Operator/Wholesaler.  There will be established by TWA one master UATP Account
for the Icahn Entities with multiple sub-card accounts (which may be sub-card
accounts of the Master Account) permitted subject to a one-time $15
administration charge per card assessed for each sub-card account requested by
Karabu.  UATP or equivalent cards may not be issued to any Travel Agent or to
any other issuer of tickets which is not an Icahn Entity or an End User but
will be issued by TWA, upon application by Karabu and/or its agents, solely to
Icahn Entities and End Users.  TWA will issue such card within five (5)
business days after receipt of the necessary documentation.  All such UATP or
equivalent cards will bear on the card the following or substantially
equivalent language: Valid Only for travel on TWA and Non-Commissionable.
Tickets may be issued at any ARC or IATA Travel Agency (including, without
limitation, a travel agency which is owned by one or more Icahn Entities), or
at any TWA ATO/CTO, or other approved TWA ticketing outlet (including, without
limitation, general sales agents, provided that Karabu will reimburse TWA for
any commissions paid by TWA to general sales agents on account of Tickets
issued to Karabu or for Karabu's account) provided, however, that Tickets
issued at Consolidator Fares and/or Tour Operator/Wholesaler Marketing Fares
may only be issued by Karabu or other Icahn Entities.  Standard Denied Boarding
Compensation Rules will apply to all Tickets sold pursuant to this Agreement as
if sold by TWA at Published Fares.

9.  TWA FLIGHT CANCELLATIONS.  TWA will re-protect on other airlines all
persons holding Tickets as if sold by TWA at Published Fares if due to weather
conditions or operational difficulties such person is denied boarding due to
the TWA flight being canceled on which such person holds a reservation, with
TWA to be

                                      -13-

<PAGE>   14
promptly paid by Karabu an amount equaling TWA's cost based on Rule 240 or any
other similar such rule, term or condition as may be applicable, in excess of
actual Ticket cost. TWA will provide invoices and backup information as set
forth in Exhibit B hereto.

        Procedures for billing, paying, provision of accounting records and
account information and adjusting amounts monthly between TWA and Karabu are set
forth in Exhibit B which is attached hereto and made a part hereof.

10. KARABU OR NEW PBGC NOTE PREPAYMENTS.  Periodically, as provided in this
Section 10, the Purchase Price for Tickets purchased by Karabu or for Karabu's
account pursuant to this Agreement shall either (i) be retained by Karabu and
the amount so retained shall be credited as prepayments against the outstanding
balance of the Karabu Loans, (first to past due interest and then to principal,
pro rata based on the amount of past due interest on, or the outstanding
principal balances of, as the case may be, the notes evidencing the Karabu
Loans) or (ii) at Karabu's option, be paid over to the Settlement Trust by
Karabu, for TWA's account, as prepayments of the New PBGC Notes (and shall be
applied first to pay past due or deferred interest and then to prepay principal
(in inverse order of maturity), pro rata based on the amounts of past due or
deferred interest on, or the outstanding principal balances of, as the case may
be, the New PBGC Notes), PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that so long as the Karabu Loans
have not been paid in full, during each of the Fifteen Month Period and each
subsequent Year of the Ticket Program, until at least the Minimum Prepayment
Amount (as hereinafter defined) has been retained by Karabu and credited as
prepayments of the Karabu Loans pursuant to clause (i) above, not more than 50%
of the aggregate Purchase Price of Tickets purchased by Karabu or for Karabu's
account during such Fifteen Month Period or Year, as the case may be, shall be
paid over to the Settlement Trust as provided in clause (ii) above. "Minimum
Prepayment Amount" means (x) $20 million for the Fifteen Month Period and (y)
for each Year of the Ticket Program following the Fifteen Month Period (the
"Subject Year") the lesser of (I) $20 Million or (II) the difference (but not
less than 0) between (A) the product of $20 Million times the number of Years
after the Fifteen Month Period plus one (1) to and including the subject Year
and (B) the aggregate amount retained by Karabu and credited as prepayments of
the Karabu Loans pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence during the
Fifteen Month Period and each subsequent Year of the Ticket Program to and
including the Year immediately preceding the Subject Year. Karabu shall be
responsible for paying over directly to the Settlement Trust such amount as
Karabu elects to have applied against the New PBGC Notes pursuant to clause
(ii) of the first sentence of this Section 10. Karabu shall notify TWA in
writing on or prior to the thirtieth (30) day after Karabu receives from TWA
the Monthly Sales Report described in Exhibit B hereto the amount so paid over
to the Settlement Trust on account of the sale of Tickets included in such
Monthly Sales Report and TWA shall credit the outstanding balance of the Karabu
Loans in an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase


                                      -14-

<PAGE>   15
Price of Tickets included in such Monthly Sales Report net of the amounts so
paid over by Karabu to the Settlement Trust as indicated in such written notice
to TWA; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, if at any time Karabu shall reasonably deem itself
insecure with respect to the ability of TWA to continue to honor any Tickets
sold under the Ticket Program, Karabu shall notify TWA in writing and
thereafter (until such notice shall be rescinded), there shall not be credited
against the outstanding balance of principal and interest on the Karabu Loans
the lesser of 25% or the highest percentage holdback then being imposed by any
credit card processing center handling TWA's credit card Receivables, of the
amount of proceeds owing to TWA on account of Tickets sold under the Ticket
Program included in such Monthly Sales Report. Any amount not credited against
principal and interest on the Karabu Loans shall (A) accrue interest at the
interest rate applicable to the Karabu Loans (or if such Loans have been paid
in full, at the rate which would have been applicable to the Loans had they
continued to be outstanding), which interest shall be added to the proceeds due
TWA from Karabu in respect of the Ticket Program and (B) be credited,
together with such interest, against the Karabu Loans on such date as TWA
receives from Karabu the next succeeding notice of application of Ticket
proceeds unless a Bankruptcy Event shall occur, in which event the then
uncredited amount shall not be so credited until the then outstanding unused
Tickets are actually utilized for flights on TWA. Karabu shall rescind any such
notice at the earlier of (i) such time as a reasonable creditor would no longer
deem itself insecure with respect to the ability of TWA to continue to honor
any Tickets sold under the Ticket Program or (ii) 30 days after the end of the
term of the Ticket Program or the sale of the last Ticket salable thereunder.
After payment in full of the Karabu Loans, the Purchase Price will be paid over
in cash to TWA or, at Karabu's option, paid over to the Settlement Trust for
TWA's account as prepayments of the New PBGC Notes as provided in clause (ii)
of the first sentence of this Section 10. Payments to TWA or to the Settlement
Trust pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be made on or prior to the
thirtieth (30) day after Karabu receives Monthly Sales Reports covering Tickets
sold after the Karabu Loans are so paid; payments to TWA shall be accompanied
by a written notice of the amount, if any, paid over to the Settlement Trust
for application for TWA's account as a prepayment of the New PBGC Notes (first
to overdue or deferred and unpaid interest and then to principal).

11. NONDISCRIMINATION. (a) TWA, subject to normal operating conditions of the
computer reservations system which it is then using, will provide no less
than the same access to seat availability in all fare categories on the same
basis to Karabu as it provides to other Travel Agents with respect to all
System Tickets and Tickets sold at Domestic Consolidator Fares and, in the case
of sales of all other Tickets, to other Consolidators (International) and/or
Consolidators (Domestic) respectively. TWA will also comply with the
non-discrimination provisions of Exhibit A hereto; (b) If the Icahn Entities
establish or acquire an ARC or IATA approved travel agency, TWA will deal with
any such travel agency and will permit it to sell air transportation on TWA to
and for the account of such travel agency and its customers in the same manner
and on the

                                -15-

<PAGE>   16
same basis as TWA deals generally with other travel agencies (except in so far
as any such dealings would be inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement)
and TWA will not otherwise discriminate against such travel agency.

12. VIOLATION OF TERMS OF THE AGREEMENT.

        (a)(i) If Karabu or another Icahn Entity (collectively, an "Icahn
Entity"); 

                (aa) commits or engages in conduct constituting a breach of
this Agreement which causes or is reasonably likely to cause material damage to
TWA, or to deprive TWA of any material benefit intended to be provided under
this Agreement, or

                (bb) engages in a series of related actions, inactions or
omissions which although individually are in breach of this Agreement, are not
material breaches of this Agreement, but which, when taken together, either
cause or are reasonably likely to cause, material damage to TWA or otherwise
deprives, or is reasonably likely to deprive TWA of any material benefit
contemplated or provided for in this Agreement, or

                (cc) engages in a pattern of conduct (through actions,
inactions, or omissions) which individually are in breach of this Agreement and
which when viewed individually would not constitute material breaches of this
Agreement, but when viewed together, either cause or are reasonably likely to
cause material damage to TWA, or otherwise deprives, or is reasonably likely to
deprive TWA of any material benefit contemplated or provided for in this
Agreement; and

        (ii) such conduct is not discontinued, such breach is not cured or such
breach does not otherwise cease to exist within five (5) business days of the
Icahn Entity's receipt of a written notice from TWA containing a reasonably
detailed description of the alleged conduct or breach (a "Default Notice");
provided, however, if such conduct is not capable of cure within five (5)
business days, this condition will be satisfied if such cure is commenced and
diligently pursued and satisfied within thirty (30) business days of the
Icahn's Entity's receipt of such Default Notice and further provided that for
the purposes of this Section, debit memos and/or discrepancy notices will, as
applicable, qualify as Default Notices; and

        (iii) TWA subsequently obtains a final, non-appealable judgment from a
court of competent jurisdiction that the Icahn Entity in fact breached this
Agreement and the breach causes or is reasonably likely to cause material
damage to TWA or to deprive TWA of any material benefit intended to be provided
under this Agreement;

                                      -16-

<PAGE>   17

then, if within the time period after the Icahn's Entity's receipt of a Default
Notice, as referred to in clause (ii) above, the conduct described in the
Default Notice has been discontinued, or the breach described in the Default
Notice has been cured or otherwise ceased to exist, then Karabu shall pay to
TWA immediately on demand, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty and
without any requirement to satisfy subsection (a)(iii) above, an amount equal
to the difference between (x) the Published Fares of all Tickets sold through
the Icahn Entity to all persons pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof during the time
period during which the conduct described in the Default Notice continued or
the breach described in the Default Notice existed, as the case may be, solely
in TWA's market area or areas in which TWA experienced the damage or
deprivation of benefits as specified in the Default Notice and (y) the Purchase
Price of such Tickets.

        For the purposes of this Section 12, violation by Karabu of clauses
(iv) or (v) of Section 5 of this Agreement shall not constitute a breach of the
Agreement.

        TWA and Karabu acknowledge that certain breaches of this Agreement do
not readily lend themselves to a cure in that no action can be taken by the
Icahn Entity to place the parties in the same position that they were in
immediately prior to the occurrence of such breach, e.g. if an Icahn Entity
were to place an advertisement in violation of Section 5 hereof, the Icahn
Entity could take no action to alter the fact that the advertisement had been
made public.  In such instance, TWA and Karabu agree that if the Icahn Entity
discontinued the conduct or the action which gave rise to the breach (e.g. the
advertisement is discontinued), or the breach ceases to exist for any other
reason (e.g. the advertisement was of limited duration and steps were taken, if
necessary, to discontinue it as soon as the Icahn Entity received written
notice from TWA), then Karabu shall be deemed to have cured the breach or the
breach shall be deemed cured, as the case may be, on the date that the conduct
or action is so discontinued or on the date that the breach otherwise ceases to
exist provided that to the extent necessary commercially reasonable steps were
taken to cure the breach upon receipt by the Icahn Entity of the Default Notice
relating to such breach.  In such instance, TWA would be entitled to the
liquidated damages set forth in the preceding paragraph if the breach was so
cured within the period specified in clause (ii) above or the liquidated
damages provided for in the next succeeding paragraph of the breach was not so
cured within the period set forth in clause (ii) above.

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Icahn Entity shall have failed to
discontinue the conduct or to cure said breach as set forth in such clause (i)
within the time period specified in clause (ii) above, or continues in a
pattern of ten (10) or more such breaches in any thirty-day period (e.g.
repeated violations of the provisions of this Agreement regarding ticketing by
an Icahn Entity exclusive of selling Tickets in excess of the Period Cap and/or
the Monthly Cap as described in clauses (iv) and (v) of Section 5 hereof),
then, upon compliance by TWA with clause (a)(iii) above, the Icahn Entity shall
immediately pay to TWA, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, the

                                      -17-

<PAGE>   18
sum of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000.00), provided, however, that after the
Karubu Loans are paid in full, if the breach by the Icahn Entities results from
the failure to pay over to the Settlement Trust the Purchase Price of Tickets
as provided in the last sentence of Section 10 hereof, the amount of liquidated
damages shall be the greater of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) or the
amount that the Icahn Entities failed to so pay over.

        If any third-party, other than another Icahn Entity, with which an
Icahn Entity has a business relationship involving the sale of Tickets by the
Icahn Entity pursuant to this Agreement engages in conduct which, if engaged by
an Icahn Entity, would be a breach of this Agreement, then upon receipt by the
Icahn Entity from TWA of written notice of such conduct containing a reasonable
description thereof, the Icahn Entity shall make commercially reasonable
efforts to cause such third party to cease the conduct causing or otherwise
cure such breach (and for the purposes of this sentence a breach shall be
deemed cured as described in the second preceding paragraph) and, if such
breach caused, or is reasonably likely to cause, material damage to TWA or to
deprive TWA of any material benefit protection intended to be provided under
this Agreement and the Icahn Entity is unable, using commercially reasonable
efforts to cause the third party to cure said breach or cause the same to be
cured, upon written request from TWA, the Icahn Entity will commence and
diligently prosecute legal action against such third party seeking damages for
such breach and any recovery to the Icahn Entity (or TWA, as the case may be)
resulting therefrom shall be paid over to TWA. In the event that the Icahn
Entity fails to commence and diligently prosecute such legal action, TWA may,
at Karabu's expense, pursue such action. No Icahn Entity shall have liability
to TWA on account of or any obligation with respect to any breaches of this
Agreement caused by any such third-party except to comply with this paragraph.
TWA acknowledges that while Karabu has an obligation to inform them of the
restrictions set out in this Agreement, it will not be possible for the Icahn
Entities to monitor the activities of all Travel Agents and end Users with
whom the Icahn Entities have business relationships. In the event that any such
Travel Agent or End User engages in conduct not authorized by the Icahn
Entities which causes the Icahn Entities to be in breach of this Agreement
(for example, a Travel Agent uses a UATP account to sell Tickets to persons
other than the UATP cardholder or employees of the UATP cardholder, or a UATP
cardholder purchases Tickets for resale rather than for use by such cardholder
or its employees or a Travel Agent takes a commission on its issuance or
reissuance of a Ticket), such conduct shall be deemed "conduct by such
third-party which, if engaged in by the Icahn Entity would be a breach of this
Agreement" within the meaning of this paragraph, shall not constitute a breach
by the Icahn Entities, and the Icahn Entities sole obligations with respect
thereto shall be to comply with this paragraph.

        The remedies for breach by an Icahn Entity set forth in this provision
shall be TWA's sole and exclusive remedies and in no event shall TWA be
entitled to terminate


                                      -18-
<PAGE>   19
this Agreement or otherwise curtail the Ticket Program provided for herein as a
result thereof.

        (b)(i) If TWA:

                (aa) commits or engages in conduct constituting a breach of
this Agreement which causes or is reasonably likely to cause material damage to
Karabu or to deprive Karabu of any material benefit intended to be provided
under this Agreement (which by way of example only shall be deemed to include
deliberate, repeated instances in which TWA denies an Icahn Entity the ability
to make reservations in any specific fare category for a specific flight and
date when there in fact is seat availability for such flight at the time that
the request is made), or

                (bb) engages in a series of related actions, inactions or
omissions which, although individually are in breach of this Agreement are not
material breaches of this Agreement, but which, when taken together, either
cause or are reasonably likely to cause, material damage to Karabu (or the
other Icahn Entities), to interfere, in any material respect, with Karabu's or
any other Icahn Entities' ability to market and sell Tickets as contemplated by
this Agreement, or to otherwise deprive, or be likely to deprive, Karabu, or
the other Icahn Entities of any material benefit contemplated or provided for
in this Agreement, and

                (cc) engages in a pattern of conduct (through actions,
inactions, or omissions) which individually are in breach of this Agreement and
which when viewed individually would not constitute material breaches of this
Agreement, but when viewed together, either cause or are reasonably likely to
cause material damage to Karabu (or the other Icahn Entities), interfere, in
any material respect, with Karabu's or any other Icahn Entities' ability to
market and sell Tickets as contemplated by this Agreement, or otherwise
deprives, or is likely to deprive, Karabu or the other Icahn Entities any
material benefit contemplated or provided for in this Agreement, and

        (ii) such conduct is not discontinued or such breach is not cured or
such breach does not otherwise cease to exist within five (5) business days of
TWA's receipt of a written notice from an Icahn Entity containing a reasonably
detailed, a description of the alleged conduct or breach (a "Default Notice");
provided, however, if such conduct is not capable of cure within five (5)
business days, this condition will be satisfied if such cure is commenced,
diligently pursued and satisfied within thirty (30) business days of TWA's
receipt of such Default Notice; and

        (iii) an Icahn Entity subsequently obtains a final, non-appealable
judgment from a court of competent jurisdiction that TWA in fact breached this
Agreement and the breach had a material adverse effect on an Icahn Entity;

                                      -19-

<PAGE>   20
then, if the event(s) listed in clause (i) above occurs, and either at the time
TWA receives the Default Notice or within the period referred to in clause (ii)
above the conduct described in the Default Notice has been discontinued or the
breach described in the Default Notice has been cured, then TWA shall pay to
Karabu on demand, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty and without any
requirement to satisfy subsection 12(b)(iii) hereof, an amount equal to twice
the Published Fare of any Tickets for which reservations were sought and which
were denied.

        For the purposes of this Section 12, an inadvertent delay in providing
the information called for in Section 3(g) and the fact that any differentials
mentioned in the last sentence of clause (g) of Section 3 of this Agreement
occurs or exists shall not constitute breaches of the Agreement.

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, if TWA shall have failed to discontinue
the conduct or to cure said breach as set forth in such clause (i) within the
time period specified in clause (ii) above or continues in a pattern of ten
(10) or more such breaches in any thirty-day period (e.g. TWA's repeated denial
of reservations in specific fare categories for flights on which such fares
were available at the time that the request was made), then, upon compliance
by Karabu with clause b(iii) above, TWA shall immediately pay to the Icahn
Entity, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, the sum of Ten Million
Dollars ($10,000,000.00) and an Event of Default shall be deemed to have 
occurred under the Loan Agreements with same effect and giving Karabu the 
same rights as if any other Event of Default specified in the Loan Agreements 
had occurred and is continuing.

        The remedies for breach by TWA set forth in this provision shall be the
Icahn Entity's sole and exclusive remedies except for the Icahn Entity's rights
under the Loan Agreement to take any action specified therein or permitted
thereby on account of the occurrence of an Event of Default if an Event of
Default is deemed to have occurred as provided in the immediately preceding
paragraph.

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, TWA shall not be in breach of this
Agreement under any of the foregoing sections by reason of any of its usual
promotional sales or ticket programs including but not limited to Consolidator
(Domestic), Consolidator (International) and/or Tour Operator/Wholesaler ticket
agreements requiring the sale of air transportation in connection with an
air/ground and/or air/sea package, the sale of net fares in exchange for
advertising or promotion benefits without regard to the fare level or by virtue
of any agreement with any corporation, business or similar such entity
providing for a discount or rebate of fares for air transportation on TWA
provided that no such agreement prohibits the other party from dealing with
Karabu or except where otherwise prohibited in the Agreement (for example,
Karabu cannot sell Tickets to Travel Agents, Consolidators or Tour
Operator(s)/Wholesaler(s)), from purchasing

                                -20-

<PAGE>   21
Tickets from Karabu or otherwise affirmatively penalizes the other party
because of its dealing with Karabu.

        Karabu agrees that TWA may market and sell tickets to any End User or
to any other person, firm or entity with which Karabu has an agreement for the
sale of Tickets hereunder.

        TWA agrees that Karabu may market and sell Tickets to any person, firm
or entity with which TWA has an agreement for the sale of air transportation at
a discounted fare level provided that Karabu may not condition its agreement by
prohibiting such person, firm or entity from otherwise dealing directly with
TWA. 

        In each instance, the party in receipt of a Default Notice containing a
description of the alleged conduct or breach in violation of this Agreement,
will have a reasonable period of time to investigate and shall respond in
writing to the Default Notice with a disclosure of the relevant facts and a
complete explanation of the background to and reasons for the alleged conduct
or breach. Each party will keep and preserve records of matters arising under
this Agreement in the same fashion as business records are generally
maintained.  TWA and Karabu agree that routine operating errors with respect to
reservations and ticketing will not be considered to constitute a breach of
this Agreement.

        TWA will designate to Karabu appropriate staff in its reservations and
revenue accounting departments to be available to respond to questions
concerning TWA's implementation and operations in respect of the Ticket
Programs.  Designated reservations staff will be available on a 24 hour basis
to respond to inquiries from Karabu provided however Karabu must contact the
designated staff and not general reservations staff personnel.

        Karabu shall designate to TWA personnel able to respond to questions
concerning Karabu's implementation and operation of the Ticket Program.

13. ACCESS.  Karabu shall, on a confidential basis, give TWA, upon TWA's prior
written request, reasonable access to Karabu's books, records, and officers and
employees and shall make such information available to TWA as TWA may
reasonably request as, may be necessary for TWA to monitor Karabu's sales of
Tickets and related operations under the Ticket Programs.  All information
supplied to TWA or its representatives shall be kept confidential and shall not
be disclosed by TWA to any other person unless such disclosure is required in
TWA's counsel's opinion by operation of law.  In the event in TWA's counsel's
reasonable opinion such disclosure is required, TWA shall endeavor to give
Karabu at least ten (10) days prior written notice thereof.

                                      -21-

<PAGE>   22

        TWA shall, on a confidential basis, give Karabu, upon Karabu's prior
written request, reasonable access to TWA's contracts on a no-name basis with
Consolidators and Tour Operators/Wholesalers and TWA officers and employees
having responsibility for administering such contracts, as, may be necessary
for Karabu to monitor TWA's fares and conditions being provided to
Consolidators.  All information supplied to Karabu or its representatives shall
be kept confidential and shall not be disclosed by Karabu to any other person
unless such disclosure is required in Karabu's counsel's opinion by operation
of law.  In the event in Karabu's counsel's reasonable opinion such disclosure
is required, Karabu shall endeavor to give TWA at least ten (10) days prior
written notice thereof.

14.  CARRIER FRAGMENTATION AND SALE OF ASSETS.

        (a)  If TWA sells, transfers or disposes, in any one transaction or
related series of transactions within a twelve (12) month period, routes which,
net of route acquisitions, produced thirty percent (30%) or more of TWA's
revenues for the twelve month period ending with the end of the most recently
completed fiscal quarter, TWA shall cause the transferee or transferees of
such routes to assume, on substantially equivalent terms and conditions, TWA's
obligations with respect to a percentage of the remaining Ticket Program(s)
equivalent to the percentage TWA's annual revenues produced by the routes which
were so transferred to such transferee or transferees.

        (b)  If TWA sells, transfers or disposes of all or substantially all of
its assets in any one transaction or related series of transactions, TWA shall
cause the transferee to assume, on substantially equivalent terms and
conditions, TWA's obligations under the remaining Ticket Program(s).

15.  BANKRUPTCY.

        (a)  If a Bankruptcy Event (which shall include, for this purpose, the
filing by TWA of a petition for relief under Chapter 11 as described in the
proviso of the definition of Bankruptcy Event) occurs, TWA agrees not to seek
to reject this Agreement, pursuant to section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, as
an executory contract, or to support any motion made by a third party seeking
to force a rejection of this Agreement as an executory contract or for any
other reason provided that Karabu honors at all times all of the terms and
conditions of and is not otherwise in breach of the Extension and Consent
Agreement and further provided that, if TWA is in compliance with this clause
(a), Karabu waives any and all claims that it might have against TWA with
respect to any such rejection except that Karabu may file a proof of claim
relating to any claim that it may have under this Agreement or that may arise
as a result of a rejection of this Agreement.

                                      -22-

<PAGE>   23
        (b) TWA acknowledges and agrees that credits against the Karabu Loans
and payments made in respect of the PBGC Loans pursuant to Section 10 hereof
shall be deemed to be made in the ordinary course of the businesses of the
respective parties hereto, and, if a Bankruptcy Event occurs, TWA shall not
seek (or support any attempt by any third party to seek), pursuant to sections
547(b), 550(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, to avoid and recover either the amounts
of such credits or the funds retained by Karabu from Ticket sales which result
in such credits as preferential transfers provided that Karabu honors at all
times all of the terms and conditions of and is not otherwise in breach of the
Extension and Consent Agreement and further provided that, if TWA is in
compliance with this clause (b) Karabu waives any and all claims that it might
have against TWA with respect to any such preference claims except that Karabu
may file a proof of claim for any amounts or credits determined to be
preferential transfers.

        (c) If a Bankruptcy Event (which shall include, for this purpose, the
filing by TWA of a petition for relief under Chapter 11 described in the proviso
of the definition of Bankruptcy Event) occurs, TWA agrees, at the request of
Karabu, to use its best efforts to obtain as soon as practicable an order of the
bankruptcy court approving the assumption of this Agreement under Section 365 of
the Bankruptcy Code and, if a motion is made seeking the rejection of this
Agreement, TWA shall at Karabu request either take all appropriate action to
object to and oppose such motion or make and diligently pursue a cross-motion
seeking an order of the bankruptcy court approving the assumption of this
Agreement under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code.

16. INDEMNITIES. (a) Karabu agrees to indemnify and hold harmless TWA, its
officers, directors, shareholders, subsidiaries, affiliates and employees
(collectively, "TWA Indemnitees" and individually "TWA Indemnitee") from
and against any and all claims, actions or cause of action arising directly or
indirectly out Karabu's failure to act in accordance with the terms of
applicable foreign, federal, state or local law, rule, regulation or ordinance
concerning the marketing and sale of air transportation including any failure
by Karabu to collect and pay over to TWA in accordance with Exhibit B hereto
any and all percentage based transportation taxes, flat rate taxes, fees or
surcharges (including without limitation, passenger facility charges,
international departure taxes, APHIS and/or INS fees), together with any
penalties or interest in respect of any thereof (collectively, "Taxes") which
may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any TWA Indemnitee arising
out of or in connection with the sale of any Ticket by or on behalf of Karabu
or under the Ticket Program, including, without limitation, any reasonable
legal fees, expenses or costs incurred by any TWA Indemnitee in the
investigation or defense of any Taxes or claim of nonpayment of any Taxes by
any governmental authority.

        (b) TWA agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Karabu, its officers,
directors, shareholders, subsidiaries, affiliates, employees, agents,
consultants and independent contractors (collectively, "Karabu Indemnitees"
and individually "Karabu Indemnitee")

                                    -23-

<PAGE>   24
from and against any and all claims, actions or causes of action arising out of
TWA's failure to pay over to the appropriate governmental authorities when due
any Taxes received from Karabu, including, without limitation, any reasonable
legal fees, expenses or costs incurred by any Karabu Indemnitee in the
investigation or defense of any claims, fines or penalties or claim of
nonpayment of any thereof.

        (c) If the facts giving rise to any indemnification under clauses (a) or
(b) of this Section 16 shall involve an actual claim or demand by any third
party against a TWA Indemnitee or a Karabu Indemnitee (the "Indemnified Party"),
the party which may be liable for indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party")
shall be entitled to notice of and entitled (without prejudice to the right of
any Indemnified Party to participate at its expense through counsel of its own
choosing) to defend or prosecute such claim at its expense and through counsel
of its own choosing if it gives written notice of its intention to do so no
later than the time by which the interests of the Indemnified Party would be
materially prejudiced as a result of its failure to have received such notice;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the defendants in any action shall include both an
Indemnifying Party and an Indemnified Party and the Indemnified Party shall have
been advised by its counsel that the counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party
has a conflict of interest because of the availability of different or
additional defenses to the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall have
the right to select separate counsel to participate in the defense of such
action on its behalf, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party. The failure to
notify the Indemnifying Party of a third Party claim or demand shall not relieve
them of any liability which they may have to any Indemnified Party except to the
extent that such failure materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party's ability
to defend such claim or action. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate fully in
the defense of any such claim or action and shall make available to the
Indemnifying Party pertinent information under its control relating thereto, but
shall be entitled to be reimbursed, as provided in this clause (c), for all
out-of-pocket costs and expenses payable to third parties incurred by it in
connection therewith. If any Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any such
claim or action, the Indemnifying Party will hold the Indemnified Party harmless
from and against any and all damages arising out of any settlement approved by
such Indemnifying Party on any judgment in connection with such claim or action.
Payment by an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Party shall be made within
ten (10) days after demand, unless indemnification arises on account of a third
Party claim or action in which event payment shall be made within ten (10) days
after final judgment, settlement or compromise, as the case may be.

17. CHOICE OF LAW.  THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY
AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.


                                      -24-

<PAGE>   25
18. BENEFIT/ASSIGNMENT.  This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns;
provided, however, that no party may assign this Agreement without the prior
written consent of the other party except that, upon written notice to TWA, any
one or more Icahn Entities may, by executing and delivering a written agreement
in the form of Exhibit C hereto (a "Joiner Agreement"), join as a party to this
Agreement as if an original signatory hereto with the right to operate all or
any portion of the Ticket Programs (as Karabu and such Icahn Entities may
determine in their discretion), provided, that Karabu shall not be relieved of
any obligations related to the Ticket Programs which are not fully performed by
any such Icahn Entity or of any obligations under any other agreement with
TWA.  The references herein to Karabu in the context of the rights and
obligations of the parties hereto and the operation of the Ticket Programs
shall mean Karabu and/or the Icahn Entities which execute and deliver Joinder
Agreements. 

19. CERTAIN NET WORTH REQUIREMENTS.  From and after such time as the Karabu
Loans have been paid in full, either (i) the aggregate book net worth
(determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles,
"GAAP"), and the net worth determined on the basis of the fair market value of
assets less all liabilities (including contingent liabilities but excluding
liabilities relating to minimum funding or the making of termination payments
to or for the benefit of the Pension Plans or the PBGC or minimum funding or
termination liabilities relating to any other employee benefit plan maintained
by such Icahn Entities or trades or businesses under common control of such
Icahn Entities) of the Icahn Entities who shall then be bound to TWA under this
Agreement shall at all times during the term of this Agreement be $10 million
or more, or (ii) there will be provided to TWA a guaranty, in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to TWA, of the obligations of the Icahn
Entities under this Agreement given by the Icahn Entities having at all times
during the term of this Agreement an aggregate net worth (computed as in clause
(i) above) of $10 million or more.

20. TAX RULING.

        TWA and Karabu agree to execute the private letter ruling cooperation
letter in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D.

21. MISCELLANEOUS.

        The waiver by either party of a breach or violation of any term or
provision of this Agreement shall not operate as, or be construed to be, a
waiver of any subsequent breach of the same provision by any party or of the
breach of any other term or provision of this Agreement.

        Each of the parties has agreed to the use of the particular language of
the provisions of this Agreement including all attached exhibits and schedules
and any 

                                      -25-

questions of doubtful interpretation shall not be resolved by any rule or
interpretation against the draftsman but rather in accordance with the fair
meaning thereof, having due regard to the benefits and rights intended to be
conferred upon the parties hereto and the limitations and restrictions upon
such rights and benefits intended to be provided.

        Any notice, demand or communication required, permitted, or desired to

                         DOMESTIC CONSOLIDATOR PROGRAM


DOMESTIC CONSOLIDATOR FARES

        1.  Domestic Consolidator Fares are Bulk Fare Rates which are 40% of
the Published Fares for the lowest priced domestic system wide advance purchase
round trip excursion fare in effect on the dates specified in paragraph 2 and,
on a sell-up basis, the second lowest priced domestic system-wide advance
purchase round-trip excursion fares in effect on the dates specified in
paragraph 2 ("Structural Fares") established by TWA from time-to-time for air
transportation in Domestic Consolidator Markets.  The sell-up feature available
for Domestic Consolidator Fares refers to the availability of higher price
levels which have added seat availability.  For example, the 7 day advance
purchase fare is presently the sell-up fare from the 21-day advance purchase
fare.

        Structural Fares currently have the following features:

                - System wide advance purchase fare types that are effective
                  for travel for at least three months;

                - Minimum and Maximum stay requirements;

                - Non-refundability in the event the fare is not used on the
                  flight on which space was reserved;

                - Penalty charges for change in flight reservations and dates;

                - Black-out periods during which travel is restricted or
                  conditioned by ticket purchase requirements;

                - Seat inventory capacity limitations;

                - Ticketing time limits within which tickets must be purchased
                  within a fixed period at or after specific flight reservations
                  are made.


                                                                               1

<PAGE>   30
        These features are not set out for the purpose of limiting the scope or
definition of Structural Fares but rather to better identify the qualities
which functionally characterize the lowest Published Fares and which over the
term of this Agreement would provide a basis for determining the lowest
Published Fares from which the Domestic Consolidator Fare levels are to be
determined. At the present time, for example, TWA's lowest domestic system-wide
advance purchase excursion fare is the 21-day advance purchase fare bearing an
E21N fare code basis. The second lowest advance purchase excursion fare is the
7-day advance purchase fare bearing an E7N fare code basis. In the event that
the fare designator codes are changed for these fares or that the fare
structure is changed so that either or both the 7-day and the 21-day advance
purchase condition is lengthened or shortened, the Domestic Consolidator Fares
will be determined on the basis of the new fares that are the functional
equivalent of the 7-day and the 21-day advance purchase fares without regard to
the new fare code or advance purchase period. For the purposes of this
Agreement, the E21N and the E7N fares refer to the lowest domestic system-wide
advance purchase excursion fare and the second lowest domestic system-wide
advance purchase excursion fare respectively without regard to the actual
advance purchase requirement of any later fares which bear different fare codes
but which are the functional equivalent of these two fares. For the purposes of
this Agreement, all references to the E21N fare and the E7N fare include the
functional equivalents of one or both such fares in the event that one or both
such fares have been eliminated.

        2. Domestic Consolidator Fares will be in effect for periods of six
months effective as of February 15 and October 15 (the "effective fare date").
Ticket sales on and after the effective fare date will be at a 60% discount
from the applicable Structural Fare. TWA will notify Karabu of the new Domestic
Consolidator Fares on or before the effective fare date.

        3. For such period of time that Las Vegas is designated as an origin
city or a destination city from another origin city under the Domestic
Consolidator Fare Program, the Domestic Consolidator Fare for travel between
Las Vegas and its related destination cities or such other origin cities and
Las Vegas (in each case in both directions) will be adjusted as of the
effective fare date. However, the Domestic Consolidator Fare for those city
pair markets shall be adjusted at other dates in order to match fares in those
city pair markets which are lower than the most recently offered Domestic
Consolidator Fare ("Las Vegas matched fare"). In such an instance, the reduced
Domestic Consolidator Fare in the particular Las Vegas city-pair market will be
at a 60% discount from the Las Vegas matched fare and will only be in effect
for such period of time as such Las Vegas matched fare is in effect for sale,
provided however that such fare matching will not apply to Las Vegas matched
fares offered for sale for three days or less.

<PAGE>   31
        4. The advance purchase, round-trip and minimum/maximum stay period
requirements of the Structural Fares are not applicable to the Domestic
Consolidator Fares and one-way Tickets to and from the origin and destination
cities may be purchased.

        5. The Domestic Consolidator Fare may be booked only in identified seat
inventory classes.  A seat inventory class is a mechanism for categorizing
various fare types in order to control/limit the number of tickets sold at any
particular fare level on any particular flight.  At the present time, TWA has
the following seat inventory classes shown in descending order:

                        F
                        C
                        Y
                        B
                        Q
                        K
                        V
                        T
                        S

        For such period of time as the lowest Structural Fare which serves as
the base for the Domestic Consolidator Fare is the E21N fare, this fare may
only be booked in the "S" and "T" seat inventory classes.  In the event that
either or both of the "S" and/or "T" seat inventory classes have been
eliminated, the E21N fare may be booked in the functional equivalent of the "S"
and/or "T" seat inventory classes.

        In the event that the "S" and "T" seat inventory classes are closed for
sale for whatever reason, the sell-up fare for the Domestic Consolidator Fare,
the E7N fare may be booked in the "V" and/or "K" seat inventory class.  In the
event that either or both of the "V" and/or "K" seat inventory classes are
eliminated, the E7N fare may be booked in the functional equivalent of the "V"
and/or "K" seat inventory classes.  If within three days of the departure date
of a specific flight, the "V" and "K" seat inventory classes are fully booked,
the E7N fare may be booked in the "Q" seat inventory class or its functional
equivalent if the "Q" seat inventory class has been eliminated.

        In the event that the number of seat inventory classes for discounted
Published Fares (the B, Q, K, V, T and S seat inventory classes) increases:

                -  by one such class, the additional seat inventory class will
be made available for the E21N fare;

                                                                               3

<PAGE>   32

                - by more than one such class, then one-half of the additional
classes (or if an odd number, the whole number which is rounded-up from
one-half) will be made available for the E21N fare and the balance of the
additional classes will be made available for the E7N fare.

        In the event that the number of seat inventory classes for discounted
Published Fares decrease by one or more, then the "Q" seat inventory class or
its functional equivalent if it has been eliminated would become available for
the E7N fare. The two lowest order of seat inventory classes are available for
the E21N fare, while the other seat inventory classes other than "Y" or "B" are
available for the E7N fare.

        In the event that the number of seat inventory classes for discounted
Published Fares decrease to three seat inventory classes or less, then all
remaining seat inventory classes would be divided so that one-half of the
inventory classes (or if an odd number, the whole number which is rounded-up
from one-half) would be allocated to the E21N and the balance would be
allocated to the E7N fares.

        In the event that all of the discounted seat inventory classes are
eliminated, then the "Y" seat inventory class will become available for the
E21N. 

        TWA does not guarantee that with respect to any particular flight for
which reservations are sought that at all times there will always be
availability in "S", "T", "V", "K" and "Q" seat inventory classes.

        Tickets issued at the Domestic Consolidator Fare which are improperly
issued and booked in any seat inventory class other "S", "T", "V", "K" or "Q"
or their functional equivalent in the event that any or all of such seat
inventory classes are eliminated, will be priced at the full Published Fare.

        6. For reservations made for travel during the following periods and
for such other similar such periods as may be established from time-to-time
during the term of the Agreement, Karabu must provide is the Passenger Name
Record the Ticket number of a ticket issued in connection with a reservation
made to the following destinations during the following periods if, but only
if, TWA applies this condition to all E21N or E7N fares offered for sale during
these periods.

                To Florida:  12-15 APR95, 21/22NOV95, 20-26DEC95,
                             15-18FEB96, 03-06APR96, 26/27NOV96,
                             19-26DEC96.

              From Florida:  21-24APR95, 26/27NOV95, 31DEC95 - 03JAN96,

                              23-5FEB96, 12-14APR96, 02DEC96.

                Non-Florida:  21-22NOV95, 26-27NOV95, 20-26DEC95,
                              01-03JAN96, 26-27NOV96, 01-02DEC96,
                              19-26DEC96.


        7.  For reservations made more than 7 days before the date of flight
departure, Tickets must be issued within 24-hours of the date on which the
reservation was made.  For reservations made within 7 days of flight departure,
Tickets must be issued at the time that the reservations are made provided that
such a ticketing condition is applied to all other Consolidators (Domestic)
offering tickets for sale in Domestic Consolidator Markets.  No stopovers are
permitted on Domestic Consolidator Fare Tickets provided that this condition is
also applicable to tickets sold by other Consolidators (Domestic) offering
tickets for sale in Domestic Consolidator Markets.

        8.  Tickets issued at the Domestic Consolidator Fare are nonrefundable
and nonreissuable and the value of such tickets may not be applied in full or
in part against the purchase of any other Ticket or ticket.  All Tickets issued
at the Domestic Consolidator Fare must indicate "bulk fare", non-endorsable and
non-refundable on the face of the Ticket.  Tickets which fail to indicate this
information on the face of the Ticket will be valued at the full Published Fare.

DOMESTIC CONSOLIDATOR MARKETS

        1.  The Domestic Consolidator Markets will consist exclusively of
transportation from 12 United States origin cities listed on the attachment
hereto to destination cities listed on the attachment hereto.  The attachment
will be amended from time to time to reflect changes in origin/destination
cities in accordance with this paragraph.  The initial 12 origin cities will
remain in place during the Fifteen Month Period.  Three months prior to each
End Date (as hereinafter defined), TWA will provide to Karabu a list of 12
alternate United States origin cities.  Prior to each End Date, Karabu shall
have the right to select 12 origin cities for the period ending on the next End
Date from the 12 then current origin cities, the 12 alternate cities plus three
additional alternate U.S. origin cities selected by Karabu, provided however
that at no time may the 12 origin cities selected by Karabu include two origin
cities each of which serve as a hub (as hereinafter defined) for any single
major U.S. scheduled air carrier.  The effective date on which Karabu must
discontinue the sale and ticketing of Tickets from or to any origin/destination
city market whether because the origin city will not be included on the list of
12 origin cities for the next succeeding Year or from any origin/destination
city pair because the market share in such market has exceeded permissible
market share levels as set forth below, will, except

                                                                              5

<PAGE>   34

as otherwise provided in the next sentence, be as of the day following the next
succeeding End Date.  TWA may, on three months notice to Karabu, remove an
origin city as a point from which Karabu may operate at any time that TWA
establishes a Hub at that origin city.  In such an event, Karabu may select an
alternate origin city so long as the inclusion of that origin city does not
result in there being two origin cities which serve as a hub for any single
major U.S. scheduled air carrier.  In the event that a city pair which had
previously been excluded from eligibility because it exceeded the applicable
market share criteria falls below the applicable market share criteria, it
shall be included as an eligible city pair effective on the day following the
next End Date if the origin city of the city pair is included in the 12 origin
cities effective as of the day following the next End Date.  "End Date" means
the last day of the fifteenth month following the Commencement Date and the
last day of each subsequent twelve month period.  "Hub" means a city in which
TWA initiates non-stop service to six (6) new cities (other than service to its
other hubs including St. Louis and JFK) with a minimum average of three (3)
non-stop flights per day to each such city.

        2.  Destination cities from the 12 origin points must satisfy the
following criteria:

                - the origin/destination city market must be one in which TWA
                  has less than a 5% market share except for the origin city/
                  New York market which has a 10% market share limit;

                - during the initial fifteen months of the Ticket Program,
                  market share data will be based on the Year end 2nd Quarter
                  1994 market share data prepared by the U.S. Department of
                  Transportation;

                - during each subsequent Year of the Ticket Program, market
                  share data will be based on the Year end 3rd Quarter market
                  share data prepared by the U.S. Department of Transportation;

                - in the event that the U.S. Department of Transportation
                  discontinues the publication of such market share data, the
                  market share data will be determined from mutually acceptable
                  industry recognized sources or in the event that there is no
                  mutual agreement on such sources, then the then existing
                  markets will remain in place;

                - in the event any origin city/destination market exceeds the
                  applicable 5% or 10% market share and/or either city becomes a
                  Hub, it will cease being eligible as a Domestic Consolidator
                  Market as of the day following the next succeeding End Date;

6

<PAGE>   35
                -  the origin/destination city markets must be ones in which
                   TWA in fact files Published Fares;

                -  San Juan and Honolulu are treated as domestic points for the
                   purposes of this Agreement.

        3. Domestic Consolidator Fares may not under any circumstances be sold:

                -  for transportation where the origin city or the destination
                   point is St. Louis;

                -  for Trans World Express flights;

                -  for any code-share and/or block space flights;

                -  on nonstop flights in any otherwise eligible market in which
                   TWA operates non-stop service.

NONDISCRIMINATION

        Capacity controls applicable to Domestic Consolidator Markets will at
all times be consistent with general system controls and models.  TWA will not
impose any such controls which are designed to specifically impact Karabu's
operations in Domestic Consolidator Markets or the Domestic Consolidator Fares
established hereunder.  Published Fares will not be re-filed in different
classes for the sole purpose of isolating and controlling the program described
in this Exhibit and the Karabu Ticket Program Agreement.  TWA will not initiate
unpublished fares for the sole purpose of impacting such programs or the
Domestic Consolidator Fares.  TWA will not take any other action for the
purpose of adversely impacting the Ticket Programs described in the Karabu
Ticket Program Agreement.

                                                                               7

                            Ruling Request Agreement


        This Agreement is being entered into as of this __ day of June, 1995
between Trans World Airlines, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("TWA"), and Karabu
Corp., a Delaware corporation ("Karabu").  All defined terms used herein shall
have the meaning set forth in the Karabu Ticket Program Agreement of even date
between TWA and Karabu.  Karabu may assign its rights under this Agreement to
one or more of the Icahn Entities.

        Karabu may in its sole discretion make a request to the Internal

ARTICLE 4.   Taxes and Customs Duties.

         4.1 Taxes. In addition to the purchase price of the Aircraft, Buyer
shall pay to Boeing, upon demand, any sales or use taxes required to be paid by
Boeing as a result of any sale, use (by Buyer after valid tender of delivery),
delivery, storage (after valid tender of delivery), or transfer under this
Agreement of the Aircraft, accessories, equipment, Buyer Furnished Equipment
(Article 9), services, instructions and data furnished or delivered hereunder;
provided, however, that Buyer shall have no liability for any penalties or
interest with respect to any such taxes, or for any tax which may be levied upon
any payment to Boeing by Buyer for the purpose of paying such tax, arising out
of Boeing's fault or negligence. If claim is made against Boeing for such taxes,
Boeing shall promptly notify Buyer. If seasonably requested by Buyer in writing,
Boeing shall, at Buyer's expense, take such action as Buyer may reasonably
direct with respect to such asserted liability and shall not pay such tax except
under protest, if protest is necessary. If payment be made, Boeing shall, at
Buyer's expense, take such action as Buyer may reasonably direct to recover such
payment and shall, if requested, permit Buyer in Boeing's name to file claim or
commence an action to recover such payment. Buyer shall not be liable for any
sales or use taxes pursuant to the provisions of this Article 4 for which it has
not been invoiced within one (1) year from the date of delivery, storage or
transfer of any Aircraft, accessory, equipment, Buyer Furnished Equipment,
service, instruction or datum to which such sales or use taxes apply.

         4.2 Customs Duties. In addition to the purchase price of the Aircraft,
Buyer shall pay to Boeing on demand the amount of any United States custom
duties required to be paid by Boeing with respect to the importation of any
items of Buyer Furnished Equipment or any other accessory, equipment or part of
foreign manufacture installed in the Aircraft at Buyer's request. Boeing shall
use its best efforts to assist Buyer in obtaining a refund of such customs
duties upon exportation of the Aircraft from the United States or in securing
temporary free importation of such items under bond, to the extent permitted by
law. Buyer shall reimburse Boeing for any expenses and hold Boeing harmless from
any penalties incurred by or imposed upon Boeing as a result of any action taken
under this Article 4.2.

ARTICLE 6.   Excusable Delay.

         6.1 General. Boeing will not be liable for or be deemed to be in
default under this Agreement on account of any delay in delivery of any Aircraft
or other performance hereunder arising out of causes such as: acts of God; war,
armed hostilities, riots, fires, floods, earthquakes or serious accidents;
governmental acts or failures to act affecting materials, facilities or
Aircraft; strikes or labor troubles causing cessation, slowdown or interruption
of work; damage to an Aircraft; failure of or delay in transportation; or
inability, after due and timely diligence, to procure materials, systems,
accessories, equipment or parts; or arising out of any other cause to the extent
it is beyond Boeing's control or not occasioned by Boeing's fault or negligence.
A delay resulting from such causes is referred to as an "Excusable Delay".

         6.2 Excusable Delay of 12 Months.

                  6.2.1 Anticipated Delay. If Boeing concludes, based on its
appraisal of the facts and normal scheduling procedures, that due to an
Excusable Delay, delivery of an Aircraft will be delayed more than 12 months
beyond the month in which delivery is scheduled, Boeing will promptly so notify
Buyer in writing and either party may then terminate this Agreement with respect
to such Aircraft by giving written notice to the other within 15 days after
receipt by Buyer of Boeing's notice. Failure of a party to terminate the
purchase of an Aircraft for an Excusable Delay pursuant to this paragraph
results in a waiver of that party's right to terminate the purchase of such
Aircraft for any delay in delivery caused by such Excusable Delay.

                  6.2.2 Actual Delay. If, due to an Excusable Delay, delivery of
an Aircraft is delayed for more than 12 months beyond the month in which
delivery is scheduled, and such right to terminate has not been waived under
paragraph 6.2.1, either party may terminate this Agreement with respect to such
Aircraft by giving written notice to the other within 15 days after the
expiration of such 12-month period.

         6.3 Aircraft Damaged Beyond Repair. If, prior to delivery, an Aircraft
is destroyed or damaged beyond economic repair due to any cause, Boeing will
promptly notify Buyer in writing and either party may then terminate this
Agreement with respect to such Aircraft. If Boeing does not so terminate this
Agreement with respect to such Aircraft, such notice will specify the earliest
date reasonably possible, consistent with Boeing's other contractual commitments
and production capabilities, by which Boeing will deliver a replacement for such
Aircraft. This Agreement will thereupon terminate as to such Aircraft,


                                       6-1
<PAGE>   15
unless Buyer gives Boeing written notice, within 30 days after receipt of
Boeing's notice, that Buyer desires the proposed replacement for such Aircraft.

         6.4 Agreement Revision. If an Aircraft is delayed, or destroyed or
damaged beyond economic repair, and this Agreement is not terminated pursuant to
this Article, this Agreement will be appropriately revised.

         6.5 Agreement Termination.

                  6.5.1 Termination under this Article will discharge all
obligations and liabilities of Boeing and Buyer hereunder with respect to
terminated Aircraft and all related undelivered items and services, except that
Boeing will return to Buyer, without interest, all advance payments related to
such Aircraft,

                  6.5.2 If either party terminates this Agreement as to any
Aircraft pursuant to this Article, Boeing may, upon written notice to Buyer
within 30 days after such termination, purchase from Buyer any Buyer Furnished
Equipment related to such Aircraft, at the invoice prices paid, or contracted to
be paid, by Buyer.

         6.6 Exclusive Rights. The termination rights set forth in this Article
are in substitution for any and all other rights of termination or contract
lapse or any other claim arising by operation of law by virtue of delays in
performance covered by this Article.

ARTICLE 7. Changes to the Detail Specification.

         7.1 Development Changes. Boeing may, at its own expense and without
Buyer's consent, incorporate Development Changes in the Detail Specification and
the Aircraft prior to delivery to Buyer. Development Changes are defined as
changes to the basic specification for Model 757-200 aircraft that do not affect
the Aircraft Purchase Price or adversely affect Aircraft delivery, guaranteed
weight, guaranteed performance or compliance with the interchangeability or
replaceability requirements set forth in the Detail Specification. If Boeing
makes changes pursuant to this paragraph, Boeing will promptly notify Buyer of
such changes.

         7.2 Change Orders. The Detail Specification and associated provisions
of this Agreement may be amended by Change Order or other written agreement,
which will state the particular changes to be made and any effect on design,
performance, weight, balance, time of delivery, Aircraft Basic Price and Advance
Payment Base Price.

ARTICLE 8.   Federal Aviation Requirements and
             Certificates.

         8.1 FAA Certificates.

                  8.1.1 Boeing will obtain from the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA):

                           8.1.1.1 a Type Certificate (transport category)
issued pursuant to Part 21 of the Federal Aviation Regulations for the type of
aircraft covered by this Agreement, and

                           8.1.1.2 a Standard Airworthiness Certificate for each
Aircraft issued pursuant to Part 21 of the Federal Aviation Regulations, which
will be provided to Buyer with delivery of the Aircraft.

                  8.1.2 Boeing will not be obligated to obtain any other
certificates or approvals for the Aircraft.

                  8.1.3 If the use of either FAA certificate is discontinued
prior to delivery of an Aircraft, references in this Agreement to such
discontinued certificate will be deemed references to its superseding FAA
certificate. If the FAA does not issue a superseding certificate, Boeing's only
obligation under this paragraph will be to comply with the Detail Specification.

         8.2 FAA Manufacturer Changes.

                  8.2.1 If the FAA, or any other governmental agency having
jurisdiction, requires any change to the Aircraft, data relating to the
Aircraft, or testing of the Aircraft in order to obtain the Standard
Airworthiness Certificate (Manufacturer Change), such Manufacturer Change will
be made prior to delivery of such Aircraft.

                  8.2.2 If prior to Aircraft delivery a Manufacturer Change is
required to be incorporated in an Aircraft, it will be incorporated at no charge
to Buyer, unless the requirement is promulgated subsequent to the date of this
Agreement, in which case Buyer will pay Boeing's


                                       8-1
<PAGE>   18
charge only for Aircraft scheduled for delivery to Buyer 18 months or more after
the date of this Agreement.

         8.3 FAA Operator Changes.

                  8.3.1 Boeing will deliver each Aircraft with the changes in
equipment incorporated (or, at Boeing's sole discretion, with suitable
provisions for the incorporation of such equipment) that is required by Federal
Aviation Regulations which (i) are generally applicable with respect to
transport category aircraft to be used in United States certified air carriage
and (ii) have to be complied with on or before the date of delivery of such
Aircraft (Operator Changes).

                  8.3.2 If Operator Changes are incorporated in an Aircraft,
Buyer will pay Boeing's charge applicable to such Aircraft.

         8.4 Delays; Changes to this Agreement. If delivery of an Aircraft is
delayed due to the incorporation of a Manufacturer Change or an Operator Change,
the delivery of the Aircraft will be appropriately revised to reflect such
delay. This Agreement will also be revised to reflect appropriate changes in the
Aircraft Price, design, performance, weight and balance due to the incorporation
of a Manufacturer Change or an Operator Change.

ARTICLE 9.   Representatives, Inspection,
             Flights and Test Data.

         9.1 Office Space at Boeing. From a date 12 months prior to delivery of
the first Aircraft, and until the delivery of the last Aircraft, Boeing will
furnish, without additional charge, suitable office space and equipment in or
conveniently located near its plant in Seattle for the accommodation of up to
five personnel of Buyer.

         9.2 Inspection by Buyer. Designated representatives of Buyer may
inspect the manufacturing of the Aircraft at all reasonable times. However, if
access to any part of Boeing's plant is restricted by the United States
Government, Boeing will be allowed a reasonable time to arrange for inspection
elsewhere. All inspections by Buyer's representatives will be performed so as
not to hinder manufacture or performance by Boeing.

         9.3 Aircraft Flight. Prior to delivery, each Aircraft will be flown by
Boeing for such periods as may be required to demonstrate to Buyer the function
of the Aircraft and its equipment in accordance with Boeing's production flight
test procedures and as necessary to demonstrate compliance with the Detail
Specification. The aggregate duration of such flights will be not less than
1-1/2 hours or more than 4 hours. Five persons designated by Buyer may
participate in such flights as observers.

         9.4 Test Data. Boeing will furnish to Buyer, as soon as practicable,
flight test data obtained on an aircraft of the type purchased hereunder,
certified as correct by Boeing, to evidence compliance with any performance
guarantees set forth in this Agreement. Any Performance Guarantee will be deemed
to be met if reasonable engineering interpretations and calculations based on
such flight test data establish that the Aircraft would, if actually flown,
comply with such guarantee.

         9.5 Special Aircraft Test Requirements. Boeing may use the Aircraft for
flight and ground tests prior to delivery to Buyer, without reduction in the
Aircraft Purchase Price, if such tests are deemed necessary by Boeing to:

                  9.5.1 obtain or maintain the Type Certificate or Standard
Airworthiness Certificate for the Aircraft; or

                  9.5.2 evaluate aircraft improvement changes that may be
offered for production or retrofit incorporation in any aircraft.

         9.6 Indemnity. Boeing will indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and
Buyer's observers from and against all


                                       9-1
<PAGE>   20
claims and liabilities, including costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees)
incident thereto, for injury to or death of any person or persons, including
employees of Boeing but excluding employees, officers or agents of Buyer, or for
loss of or damage to any property, arising out of or in connection with the
operation of the Aircraft during all demonstration and test flights conducted
under the provisions of this Article, whether or not arising in tort or
occasioned in whole or in part by the negligence of Buyer or any of Buyer's
observers, whether active, passive or imputed.

ARTICLE 10.  Assignment, Resale or Lease.

         10.1 Assignment. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon each of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns. Neither the rights nor the duties of either party under this Agreement
may be assigned or delegated, or contracted to be assigned or delegated, in
whole or part, without the prior written consent of the other party, except
that:

                  10.1.1 Either party may assign its interest to a corporation
that (i) results from any merger or reorganization of such party or (ii)
acquires substantially all the assets of such party;

                  10.1.2 Boeing may assign its rights to receive money; and

                  10.1.3 Boeing may assign all or any part of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement to any wholly owned subsidiary of Boeing,
provided that Boeing will remain fully and solely responsible to Buyer for all
obligations and liabilities as the seller of the Aircraft, and Buyer will
continue to deal exclusively with Boeing.

         10.2 Transfer by Buyer at Delivery. Buyer may, and at Buyer's request
Boeing will, take any action reasonably required for the purpose of causing an
Aircraft, at time of delivery, to be subjected to an equipment trust,
conditional sale, lien or other arrangement for the financing by Buyer of such
Aircraft. No action taken by either party pursuant to this paragraph, however,
will require Boeing to divest itself of title to or possession of such Aircraft
until delivery and payment therefor pursuant to this Agreement.

         10.3 Sale by Buyer After Delivery. If, following delivery of any
Aircraft, Buyer sells such Aircraft (including any sale for financing purposes),
then all of Buyer's rights with respect to such Aircraft under this Agreement
will inure to the benefit of the purchaser of such Aircraft, effective upon
Boeing's receipt of such purchaser's express written agreement, in form
satisfactory to Boeing, to be bound by and to comply with all applicable terms,
conditions and limitations of this Agreement.

         10.4 Lease by Buyer After Delivery. If, following delivery of any
Aircraft, Buyer leases such Aircraft, Buyer will not assign to the lessee of
such Aircraft any rights under this Agreement without Boeing's prior written
consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

         10.5 No Increase in Boeing Liability. No action taken by Buyer or
Boeing relating to the assignment, resale or lease of any Aircraft or this
Agreement will subject


                                      10-1
<PAGE>   22
Boeing to any liability beyond that in this Agreement or modify in any way
Boeing's obligations under this Agreement.

             10.6 Exculpatory or Indemnity Clause in Post-Delivery Sale or
Lease. If, following delivery of an Aircraft, Buyer sells or leases such
Aircraft and obtains from the transferee an exculpatory or indemnity clause
protecting Buyer, Buyer will include the same protection for Boeing.

                  11.1.1 Ceases doing business as a going concern, suspends all
or substantially all its business operations (other than temporary shutdowns due
to labor disputes or similar causes beyond the control of Buyer), makes an
assignment for the benefit of creditors, is insolvent, or generally does not pay

repay to Buyer, without interest, any advance payments received by Boeing from
Buyer with respect to such Aircraft.

                                     PART A

                                 BOEING WARRANTY

1. Warranties.

         Subject to the exceptions set forth herein, Boeing warrants that, at
the time of delivery, each Aircraft, including all installed systems,
accessories, equipment and parts, will:

         1.1 conform to the Detail Specification, as it may be changed pursuant
to this Agreement, except such portions stated to be estimates, approximations,
design objectives, or design criteria, or described as not guaranteed;

         1.2 be free from defects in material and workmanship, including process
of manufacture; and

         1.3 be free from defects in design, including selection of (i)
materials and (ii) process of manufacture, in view of the state of the art at
the time of design.

         For purposes of this Boeing Warranty, nonconformance with the Detail
Specification, defects in material or workmanship and defects in design may
hereinafter be called "defects" or a "defect", and the term "system",
"accessory", "equipment" or "part" may hereinafter be called "item" or "items."

2. Exceptions.

         The warranties above will not apply to BFE. The warranty above covering
material and workmanship and the warranty above covering design will not apply
to Engines or to any other item purchased by Boeing but not manufactured to
Boeing's detailed design. However, any defect in the Boeing workmanship
installing such BFE, Engines or other items in an Aircraft will constitute a
defect in workmanship.

3. Survival of Warranties.

             Neither the warranty of conformance to the Detail Specification
applicable to Engines and other items purchased by Boeing but not manufactured
to Boeing's detailed design, nor any Performance Guarantees, will



<PAGE>   40
survive delivery of the Aircraft. The remaining warranties set forth herein will
survive delivery of the Aircraft, subject to the limitations and conditions set
forth herein.

4. Warranty Periods and Claims.

         4.1 The warranty periods are:

                  4.1.1 As to a defect in conformance to the Detail
Specification, 36 months after delivery of each Aircraft, and

                  4.1.2 As to a defect in material, workmanship or design in any
item, 36 months after delivery of each Aircraft in which such item was initially
installed.

         4.2 Boeing's Product Assurance Regional Manager at Renton, Washington
must receive the warranty claim in writing at the earliest practicable time
after the defect becomes apparent but in no event later than 90 days after
expiration of the applicable warranty period.

         4.3 Such warranty claim must include the data set forth below and, if
requested by Boeing, reasonable evidence that the claimed defect did not result
from any act or omission of Buyer.

                  4.3.1 Identity of the item or Aircraft involved, including
Boeing part number, serial number if applicable, nomenclature and the quantity
claimed to be defective;

                  4.3.2 Identity of the Aircraft on which the claimed item was
installed as original equipment;

                  4.3.3 Date the claimed defect became apparent which will be
the date such defect was discovered by Buyer or the warranty date set forth in a
Boeing service bulletin or service letter, whichever date occurs first; and

                  4.3.4 Description of the claimed defect and circumstances,
including Boeing service bulletin or Boeing service letter number if claim
involves a service bulletin or letter.

         4.4 Upon completion of Boeing's warranty claim investigation, including
examination of any item or Aircraft returned to Boeing, Boeing will provide a
written disposition of its warranty claim findings to Buyer. In the event Boeing
must reject Buyer's warranty claim, Boeing will provide reasonable
substantiation of such rejection in its disposition.

5. Remedies.


<PAGE>   41
         Buyer's remedies under this Boeing Warranty are as follows:

         5.1 As to a defect in conformance to the Detail Specification, the
correction at Boeing's expense of such defect; provided, however, that Boeing
will not be obligated to correct any defect that has no material adverse effect
on the maintenance, use or operation of the Aircraft. The warranty period for
the corrected item will be the unexpired warranty period for the defective item.

         5.2 As to a defect in material or workmanship, (i) the repair at
Boeing's expense of such defect or, (ii) at Boeing's option, the replacement of
such item with a similar item free from defect or the issuance of a credit
memorandum to reimburse Buyer for a spare part previously purchased from Boeing
as the replacement for such defective item. The warranty period for either
correction will be the unexpired warranty period for the defective item.

         5.3 As to a defect in design, the correction at Boeing's expense of
such defect. The warranty period for such correction is 18 months from receipt
by Buyer of corrective material or the end of the original design warranty
period for the defective item, whichever is later.

         5.4 Boeing will issue a credit memorandum to reimburse Buyer at the
Warranty Labor Rate for the direct labor hours required for removal from the
Aircraft of a defective item and the reinstallation in the Aircraft of the
corrected item.

6. Returned Items.

         Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Aircraft or item
claimed to be defective must be returned to Boeing as soon as practicable. Buyer
may also provide specific technical repair or correction instructions with such
return. The absence of such instructions will evidence Buyer's authorization for
Boeing to proceed using Boeing information and data. The following criteria will
apply with respect to return of Aircraft or items to Boeing:

         6.1 As to Aircraft:

                  6.1.1 An Aircraft may be returned only if

                           6.1.1.1 substantially all the work to be performed by
Boeing is covered by this Boeing Warranty, and

                           6.1.1.2 Buyer does not have the capability to
perform, nor is it practical for Boeing personnel to perform, the warranty work
away from Boeing's facilities.


<PAGE>   42
                           6.1.2 All warranty work will be performed at Boeing's
expense, with reasonable efforts to minimize Aircraft out-of-service time. In
addition, Boeing will reimburse Buyer by issuing a credit memorandum for the
cost of fuel, oil and landing fees incurred in ferrying the Aircraft to Boeing's
facilities and in ferrying the Aircraft back to Buyer's facilities. Buyer will
minimize the length of both ferry flights.

                           6.1.3 Any nonwarranty work performed by Boeing will
be paid for by Buyer at Boeing's then-standard rates.

                           6.1.4 A separate agreement based on Boeing's
then-standard form will be entered into to cover the return of and work on such
Aircraft.

                  6.2 As to any system, accessory, equipment or part:

                           6.2.1 All warranty work will be performed at Boeing's
expense, with reasonable efforts to minimize item out-of-service time for items
returned.

                           6.2.2 Boeing's turnaround-time objectives for repair
or replacement are: 10 working days for avionic and electronic items and 30
working days for other items when corrected at Boeing's facilities, or 40
working days when corrected at the facilities of a Boeing subcontractor.
Turnaround time starts the date Boeing receives the returned item, together with
Buyer's warranty claim describing the work, and ends the date of shipment by
Boeing of such item. If a turnaround-time objective is not achieved and a
resultant critical parts shortage is experienced by Buyer, and Buyer has
procured spare parts for such item in accordance with the Boeing Recommended
Spare Parts List, Boeing will, upon request from Buyer, either:

                                    6.2.2.1 expedite repair or replacement of
the item or

                                    6.2.2.2 provide a similar item on a
no-charge loan or no-charge lease basis until the repaired or replaced item is
provided to Buyer.

                           6.2.3 The freight charge for shipment to Boeing of
any item will be paid by Buyer; however, Boeing will reimburse Buyer by issuing
a credit memorandum for such charge for any item determined to be defective
under this Boeing Warranty. The freight charge for the return shipment to Buyer
of any such defective item which has been repaired, replaced or corrected
pursuant to this Boeing Warranty will be paid by Boeing.

         6.3 Title to and risk of loss of any Aircraft or 


<PAGE>   43
item returned to Boeing will at all times remain with Buyer and/or any other
owner of such Aircraft or item, except that at the time Boeing ships a
replacement item to Buyer, title to and risk of loss (i) for the returned item
will pass to Boeing and (ii) for the replacement item will pass to Buyer. While
Boeing has care, custody and control of an Aircraft or item, Boeing will have
only such liabilities as a bailee for mutual benefit would have, but will not be
liable for loss of use.

7. Nonrepairable Items.

         Buyer may scrap any defective nonrepairable item having a then-current
Boeing spare part selling price of $2,000 or less and make a claim for a
replacement item. For a defective nonrepairable item having a then-current
Boeing spare part selling price greater than $2,000, an authorized Boeing
representative must confirm the nonrepairability of any such item. Buyer's claim
for an item with a spare part selling price exceeding $2,000 must include such
confirmation.

8. Reimbursement for Certain Inspection Labor Costs.

         8.1 In addition to the remedies set forth in this Boeing Warranty,
Boeing will reimburse Buyer by issuing a credit memorandum at the Warranty Labor
Rate for the direct labor hours expended by Buyer in performing inspections of
the Aircraft to determine whether or not a covered defect exists in any system,
accessory, equipment or part manufactured to Boeing's detailed design, provided
that:

                  8.1.1 such inspections are recommended by a Boeing service
bulletin or service letter issued by Boeing within 36 months after delivery of
such Aircraft, and

                  8.1.2 such reimbursement will not apply to any inspections
performed as an alternative to accomplishing corrective action when such
corrective action is available to Buyer at the time such inspections are
performed.

         8.2 If a covered defect is determined to exist as a result of the
foregoing inspections, the remedies under this Boeing warranty will apply to
Aircraft in warranty as of the warranty date set forth in the applicable Boeing
service bulletin or service letter or the date the defect was discovered by
Buyer, whichever date occurs first.

9.           Wear and Tear.

         Normal wear and tear and the need for regular maintenance and overhaul
will not constitute a defect.

10.          Disclaimer and Release; Exclusion of Liabilities.


<PAGE>   44
         This Part A and the rights and remedies of Buyer and obligations of
Boeing herein are subject to the Disclaimer and Release and Exclusion of
Consequential and Other Damages provisions of Article 12 of this Agreement.

11. Buyer's Indemnification of Boeing.

         The provisions of Part E, "Buyer's Indemnification of Boeing and
Insurance" of Exhibit C, will apply to all warranty work performed by Boeing
hereunder in accordance with Buyer's specific technical repair or correction
instructions, to the extent any legal liability of Boeing is based upon the
content of such instructions.

1. General.

         To expedite the return to service of any defective Aircraft or systems,
accessories, equipment and parts (items) that Boeing is obligated to correct
under the Boeing Warranty, repairs and modifications may, at Buyer's option, be
performed by Buyer (work) and charged to Boeing, subject to the following:

2. Scope.

         This option applies only to items manufactured to Boeing's detailed
design. The warranty and notice periods and all other conditions and limitations
applicable to the Boeing Warranty apply to this option.

3. Repairs and Modifications.

             All work will be performed in accordance with Boeing's written
instructions, using parts and materials as may be furnished by Boeing and/or
Boeing approved parts and materials as may be furnished by Buyer.

4. Claims for Reimbursement.

             Buyer's claim for reimbursement must be submitted in writing to
Boeing promptly after completion of the work. Such claim must include the data
set forth in paragraph 4.3 of Part A of this Exhibit B and the following:

             4.1         Description of the work performed by Buyer;

             4.2         Date work was completed by Buyer;

             4.3         Itemized account of the direct labor hours
                         expended in performing the work; and

             4.4         Itemized account of the direct materials
                         incorporated in the work.


<PAGE>   46
5.           Reimbursement.

             Upon approval of Buyer's claim for reimbursement, Boeing will
reimburse Buyer by issuing a credit memorandum as follows:

             5.1         Direct Labor.

                         At the Warranty Labor Rate specified herein
for labor hours expended by Buyer's direct labor employees in performing the
work, including removal, disassembly, inspection, bench testing, warrantable
repair or modification, reassembly, final inspection, and reinstallation, but
not to exceed Boeing's reasonable estimate of required labor hours, unless a
greater number of direct labor hours is established by agreement between Boeing
and Buyer, and excluding time for overhaul.

             5.2         Direct Materials.

                         At the invoice cost to Buyer for all direct
materials incorporated in the work, excluding (i) materials used for overhaul,
(ii) materials furnished by Boeing at no charge, (iii) materials which exceed
Boeing's reasonable estimate of required materials, and (iv) allowances for
handling, overhead, taxes, customs duties and the like.

             5.3         Warranty Labor Rate.

                         The Warranty Labor Rate is $41.25 per hour
or 150% of Buyer's average direct hourly labor rate, whichever is greater. For
this purpose, "average direct hourly labor rate" is defined as the average
hourly rate (excluding all fringe benefits, premium-time allowances, social
charges, business taxes and the like) paid by Buyer to Buyer's employees whose
jobs are directly related to the performance of the work. Prior to or
concurrently with submittal of Buyer's first claim for labor reimbursement,
Buyer will notify Boeing of Buyer's then-current average direct hourly labor
rate, and thereafter notify Boeing of any material change in such rate. Boeing
may require data from Buyer to substantiate such rates.

             5.4         Limitation.

                         The total reimbursement with respect to the
direct labor and direct materials incorporated in the work, will not exceed 65%
of Boeing's then-current sales price for the item unless a greater percentage is
established for a particular item by written agreement between Boeing and Buyer.

All claims for reimbursement will be subject to audit by Boeing. Boeing will
promptly notify Buyer of Boeing's disposition of each claim submitted hereunder.


<PAGE>   47
6.           Replaced Parts.

             If component parts of any assembly are replaced by Buyer, the
replaced parts will be tagged with the assembly part number, the serial number
and the warranty claim number and retained for a period of 60 days following the
date of submittal of Buyer's claim, so as to be made available for Boeing's
inspection. Such parts may be scrapped after such 60-day period.

1.           Indemnity.

             Subject to the provisions of this Part D, Boeing will indemnify and
hold harmless Buyer from and against all claims, suits, actions, liabilities,
damages and costs arising out of actual or alleged infringement, by any Aircraft
or any system, accessory, equipment or part (item) installed thereon at the time
of Aircraft delivery, of any patent issued under the laws of any country in
which Buyer lawfully operates the Aircraft (Country).

2.           Exceptions.

             2.1 This indemnity will not apply unless, from the time of design
of the allegedly infringing Aircraft or item until the resolution of the
infringement claim, the Country and flag country of the Aircraft: (i) are fully
bound by the Chicago Convention on International Civil Aviation of December 7,
1944, and are fully entitled to all benefits of Article 27 thereof, or (ii) have
been parties to the International Convention for the Protection of Industrial
Property (Paris Convention), or (iii) are the United States.

             2.2 This indemnity will not apply to Buyer Furnished Equipment,
Engines, any system, accessory, equipment or part that was not manufactured to
Boeing's detailed design, or to any system, accessory, equipment or part
manufactured to Boeing's detailed design without Boeing's authorization.

3.           Conditions and Limitations.

             Buyer's remedy and Boeing's obligations hereunder are subject to
the following:

             3.1 Buyer must give Boeing written notice within 10 days after

negotiations with any party claiming infringement and may intervene in any suit
or action. Whether or not Boeing intervenes, Boeing will be entitled at any
stage of the proceedings to assume or control the defense.

             3.3 Buyer will (i) promptly furnish to Boeing all data, records and
assistance within Buyer's control which are material to any such claim, suit or

             3.4 Boeing's obligations and Buyer's remedies herein exclude
Buyer's incidental or consequential damages and liabilities, costs, loss of
revenue or loss of profit resulting from loss of use, but include, at Boeing's
option, replacing the infringing item with an equivalent non infringing unit or
otherwise curing any infringement on account of which use of the Aircraft by
Buyer is prevented.

             3.5 Boeing's obligations and Buyer's remedies herein are exclusive
and in substitution for, and Buyer hereby waives, releases and renounces, all
other indemnities, obligations and liabilities of Boeing and any assignee of

             2.9 The obligations of Boeing and remedies of Buyer set forth in
this Part are exclusive and in substitution for, and Buyer hereby waives,
releases and renounces, all other indemnities, obligations, and liabilities of
Boeing and all other rights, claims and remedies of Buyer against Boeing,

warranties and patent indemnities to Buyer prior to delivery of the first
Aircraft.

2.           Boeing Assistance in Administration of Supplier
             Warranties.

             Buyer will be responsible for submitting warranty claims directly

warranty obtained by Boeing for Buyer, Boeing will conduct an investigation of
such problems and assist Buyer in the resolution of such claims.

3.           Boeing Support in Event of Supplier Default.

             3.1 If any Supplier defaults in the performance of a material
obligation under a design, material or workmanship warranty obtained by Boeing

then the equivalent warranty and related provisions set forth in this Product
Assurance Document will apply to the claimed defect.

             3.2 At Boeing's request, Buyer will assign to Boeing, and Boeing
will be subrogated to, Buyer's rights against the manufacturer providing such
Supplier warranty.

                           BOEING INTERFACE COMMITMENT

1.           Interface Problems.

             If Buyer experiences technical problems in the operation of an
Aircraft or its systems, the cause of which is not readily identifiable by Buyer
but which Buyer believes to be attributable to the design characteristics of the
Aircraft or its systems (Interface Problem), Boeing will, without additional
charge to Buyer, promptly conduct an investigation and analysis to determine the
cause or causes of the Interface Problem and to recommend such corrective action
as may be feasible. Buyer will furnish to Boeing all data and information in
Buyer's possession relevant to the Interface Problem, and will cooperate with
Boeing in the conduct of investigations and tests. Boeing will promptly advise
Buyer at the conclusion of its investigation of Boeing's opinion as to the
causes of the Interface Problem and Boeing's recommendation as to corrective
action.

2.           Boeing Responsibility.

             If Boeing determines that the Interface Problem is primarily
attributable to the design of any item manufactured to Boeing's detailed design,
Boeing will correct the design of such item to the extent of any then-existing
obligations of Boeing under the provisions of the applicable Boeing Warranty or
Boeing Service Life Policy.

3.           Manufacturer Responsibility.

             If Boeing determines that the Interface Problem is primarily
attributable to the design of an item not manufactured to Boeing's detailed
design, Boeing will assist Buyer in processing a warranty claim against the
manufacturer of such item.

4.           Joint Responsibility.

             If Boeing determines that the Interface Problem is partially
attributable to the design of an item manufactured to Boeing's detailed design
and partially to the design of an item not manufactured to Boeing's detailed
design, Boeing will seek a solution to the Interface Problem through the
cooperative efforts of Boeing and the manufacturer of the other item and will
promptly advise Buyer of resulting corrective actions and recommendations.

5.           General.

                 BUYER'S INDEMNIFICATION OF BOEING AND INSURANCE

1.           Buyer's Indemnification Of Boeing.

             Buyer hereby indemnifies and holds harmless Boeing from and against
all claims and liabilities, including costs and expenses (including attorneys'
fees) incident thereto or incident to successfully establishing the right to
indemnification, for injury to or death of any person or persons, including
employees of Buyer but not employees of Boeing, or for loss of or damage to any
property, including Aircraft, arising out of or in any way related to the
performance by Boeing of training, services or other obligations pursuant to
this Exhibit C, whether or not arising in tort or occasioned in whole or in part
by the negligence of Boeing, whether active, passive or imputed.

             1.1 With regard to training, services and other obligations, the
foregoing indemnification will not apply to the legal liability to persons or
parties other than Buyer or Buyer's assignees arising out of an accident caused
solely by a product defect in an Aircraft.

2.           Buyer's Insurance.

             Evidence of insurance will be required 10 days prior to the
scheduled delivery of the first Aircraft. Accordingly, Buyer will provide
certificates of insurance specifically referencing the Agreement and paragraph 1
of this Part E. In addition to showing policy number, limits of liability, and
effective dates of coverage, such certificates will contain but not be limited
to the following provisions:

                             (JULY 1995 Base Price)

1.           Formula.

             The Airframe Price Adjustment will be determined at the time of
Aircraft delivery in accordance with the following formula:

             Pa = (P)(L + M - 1)

             Where:

             Pa = Airframe Price Adjustment.

             L =      .65 x  ECI
                            -----
                            130.1

             M =      .35 x  ICI
                            -----
                            123.6

             P =      Aircraft Basic Price (as set forth in Article 3.2 of
                      this Agreement) less the base price of Engines (as defined
                      in this Exhibit D) in the amount of $11,320,000.

           ECI =      A value using the "Employment Cost Index for
                      workers in aerospace manufacturing" (aircraft
                      manufacturing, standard industrial
                      classification code 3721, compensation, base
                      month and year June 1989 = 100), as released
                      by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S.
                      Department of Labor on a quarterly basis for
                      the months of March, June, September and
                      December, calculated as follows: A three-month
                      arithmetic average value (expressed as a
                      decimal and rounded to the nearest tenth) will
                      be determined using the months set forth in
                      the table below for the applicable Aircraft,
                      with the released Employment Cost Index value
                      described above for the month of March also
                      being used for the months of January and
                      February; the value for June also used for
                      April and May; the value for September also
                      used for July and August; and the value for
                      December also used for October and November.

     ICI =            The three-month arithmetic average of the
                      released monthly values for the Industrial

                      table below for the applicable Aircraft.

             In determining the value of L, the ratio of ECI divided by 130.1
will be expressed as a decimal rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth and then
multiplied by .65 with the resulting value also expressed as a decimal and
rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth.

             In determining the value of M, the ratio of ICI divided by 123.6
will be expressed as a decimal rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth and then
multiplied by .35 with the resulting value also expressed as a decimal and
rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth.

The following definitions of B and D will apply:

             B =       The calendar year before the year in which
                       the scheduled month of delivery as set forth
                       in Article 2.1 occurs.

             D =       The calendar year during which the scheduled month of
                       delivery as set forth in Article 2.1 occurs.

2. If at the time of delivery of an Aircraft Boeing is unable to determine the
Airframe Price Adjustment because the applicable values to be used to determine
the ECI and ICI have not been released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, then:

             2.1 The Airframe Price Adjustment, to be used at the time of
delivery of each of the Aircraft, will be determined by utilizing the escalation
provisions set forth above. The values released by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics and available to Boeing 30 days prior to scheduled Aircraft delivery
will be used to determine the ECI and ICI values for the applicable months
(including those noted as preliminary by the Bureau of Labor Statistics) to
calculate the Airframe Price Adjustment. If no values have been released for an
applicable month, the provisions set forth in Paragraph 2.2 below will apply. If
prior to delivery of an Aircraft the U.S. Department of Labor changes the base
year for determination of the ECI or ICI values as defined above, such rebased
values will be incorporated in the Airframe Price Adjustment calculation. The
payment by Buyer to Boeing of the amount of the Purchase Price for such
Aircraft, as determined at the time of Aircraft delivery, will be deemed to be
the payment for such Aircraft required at the delivery thereof.

             2.2 If prior to delivery of an Aircraft the U.S. Department of
Labor substantially revises the methodology used for the determination of the
values to be used to determine the ECI and ICI values (in contrast to benchmark
adjustments or other corrections of previously released values), or for any
reason has not released values needed to determine the applicable Aircraft
Airframe Price Adjustment, the parties will, prior to delivery of any such
Aircraft, select a substitute for such values from data published by the Bureau
of Labor Statistics or other similar data reported by non-governmental United
States organizations, such substitute to lead in application to the same
adjustment result, insofar as possible, as would have been achieved by
continuing the use of the original values as they may have fluctuated during the
applicable time period. Appropriate revision of the formula will be made as
required to reflect any substitute values. However, if within 24 months from
delivery of the Aircraft the Bureau of Labor Statistics should resume releasing
values for the months needed to determine the Airframe Price Adjustment, such
values will be used to determine any increase or decrease in the Airframe Price
Adjustment for the Aircraft from that determined at the time of delivery of such
Aircraft.

             2.3 In the event escalation provisions are made non-enforceable or
otherwise rendered null and void by any agency of the United States Government,
the parties agree, to the extent they may lawfully do so, to equitably adjust
the Purchase Price of any affected Aircraft to reflect an allowance for
increases or decreases in labor compensation and material costs occurring since
February, 1995, which is consistent with the applicable provisions of paragraph
1 of

this Exhibit D.

3. For the calculations herein, the values released by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics and available to Boeing 30 days prior to scheduled Aircraft delivery
will be used to determine the ECI and ICI values for the applicable months
(including those noted as preliminary by the Bureau of Labor Statistics) to
calculate the Airframe Price Adjustment.

Note:        Any rounding of a number, as required under this Exhibit D with
             respect to escalation of the airframe price, will be accomplished
             as follows: if the first digit of the portion to be dropped from
             the number to be rounded is five or greater, the preceding digit
             will be raised to the next higher number.

                    ENGINE PRICE ADJUSTMENT - PRATT & WHITNEY
                                (1995 BASE PRICE)

(a) The Aircraft Basic Price of each Aircraft set forth in Article 3.2 of this
Agreement includes an aggregate price for P&W 2037 engines and all accessories,
equipment and parts therefor provided by the engine manufacturer (collectively
in this Exhibit D called "Engines") of Eleven Million Three Hundred Twenty
Thousand Dollars ($11,320,000). The adjustment in Engine price applicable to
each Aircraft ("Engine Price Adjustment" herein) will be determined at the time
of Aircraft delivery in accordance with the following formula:

             Pa  =       (P + F) (AA + BB + CC) - P/

(b)          The following definitions will apply herein:

             Pa  =       Engine Price Adjustment

             P   =       Aggregate Engine Base Price as set forth in paragraph
                         (a) above.

             AA  =       .60 x    L
                               ------
                               $17.80

             BB  =       .30 x    M
                               ------
                                130.6

             CC  =       .10 x    E
                               ------
                                76.6

In determining the value of AA, BB and CC, the ratio of L divided by $17.80, M
divided by 130.6 and E divided by 76.6 will be expressed as a decimal and
rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth but the decimal value resulting from
multiplying such ratios by the respective constants (.60, .30 and .10) will not
be rounded. The value of the sum of AA + BB + CC will also be rounded to the
nearest ten-thousandth.

              L =        Labor Index, which is the "Hourly Earnings of
                         Aircraft Engines and Engine Parts Production Workers,
                         SIC 3724" published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics,
                         U.S. Department of Labor, for the seventh month
                         preceding the month of scheduled Aircraft delivery.

        $17.80  =        Published Labor Index (SIC 3724) for
                         December, 1994.

                         100) published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S.
                         Department of Labor, for the seventh month preceding
                         the month of scheduled Aircraft delivery.

                         5, Fuels and Related Products and Power" (Base Year
                         1982 = 100) published for the Bureau of Labor
                         Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor, for the seventh
                         month preceding the month of scheduled Aircraft
                         delivery.

           76.6 =        Published Fuel Index (Code 5) for
                         December, 1994.

              F =        0.005 (N)(P). Where N = the calendar year of
                         scheduled Engine delivery, minus 1995. For purposes of
                         this calculation, Engine delivery is assumed to be 3
                         months prior to the month of scheduled Aircraft
                         delivery.

The Engine Price Adjustment will not be made if it would result in a decrease in
the aggregate Engine base price.

(c) The value of the Labor, Material and Fuel Index used in determining the
Engine Price Adjustment will be those published by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor as of a date 30 days prior to the scheduled
Aircraft delivery to Buyer. Such Index values will be considered final and no
revision to the Engine Price Adjustment will be made after Aircraft delivery for
any subsequent changes in published Index values.

(d) If the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U. S. Department of Labor, (i)
substantially revises the methodology (in contrast to benchmark adjustments or
other corrections of previously published data) or (ii) discontinues publication
of any of the data referred to above, Pratt & Whitney Aircraft (P&WA) agrees to
meet with Boeing and jointly select a substitute for the revised or discontinued
data, such substitute data to lead in application to the same adjustment result,
insofar as possible, as would have been achieved by continuing the use of the
original data as it may have fluctuated had it not been revised or discontinued.
Appropriate revision of the Engine Price Adjustment provisions set forth above
will be made to accomplish this

result for affected Engines.

In the event the Engine Price Adjustment escalation provisions of this Agreement
are made non-enforceable or otherwise rendered null and void by any agency of
the United States Government, P&WA agrees to meet with Boeing and jointly agree,
to the extent that they may lawfully do so, to adjust equitably the Purchase
Price of any affected Engine(s) to reflect an allowance for increases in labor,
material and fuel costs that occurred from December, 1994 to the seventh month
preceding the month of scheduled delivery of the applicable Aircraft.

NOTES:       Any rounding of a number, as required under this Exhibit D with
             respect to escalation of the Engine price, will be accomplished as
             follows: if the first digit of the portion to be dropped from the
             number to be rounded is five or greater, the preceding digit will
             be raised to the next higher number.

Subject:                 Letter Agreement No. 1910-1 to
                         Purchase Agreement No. 1910-
                         Seller Purchased Equipment

This Letter Agreement amends Purchase Agreement No. 1910 dated of even date
herewith (the Agreement) between The Boeing Company (Boeing) and Trans World
Airlines, Inc. (Buyer) relating to Model 757-231 aircraft (the Aircraft).

For purposes of this Letter Agreement the following definitions apply:

Seller Purchased Equipment (SPE) is Buyer Furnished Equipment (BFE) that Boeing
purchases for Buyer.

Developmental Buyer Furnished Equipment (DBFE) is all BFE not previously
certified for installation on the same model aircraft.

Developmental Seller Purchased Equipment (DSPE) is DBFE which is converted to
SPE. This Letter Agreement does not include developmental avionics.
Developmental avionics are avionics that have not been previously certified for
installation on the same model aircraft.

All other terms used herein and in the Agreement, and not defined above, will
have the same meaning as in the Agreement.

Buyer may request that Boeing purchase as SPE the BFE which has been changed to
SPE by Change Request. In such event, Boeing and Buyer agree as follows:


<PAGE>   116
1910-1
Page 2

1.           Price.

             Aircraft Price. The Aircraft Price will be adjusted to reflect (i)
the actual costs charged Boeing by the SPE suppliers, (ii) a handling fee of 10%
of such costs and (iii) transportation charges. If all DBFE, except for
developmental avionics, is converted to SPE, Boeing will waive the handling fee
for all SPE.

2.           Responsibilities.

             2.1         Buyer is responsible for:

                         (i)         selecting a FAA certifiable part;
                                     and

                         (ii)        providing to Boeing the SPE part
                                     specification/Buyer requirements.

             2.2.        Boeing is responsible for:

                         (i)         placing and managing the purchase
order with the supplier;

                         (ii)        coordinating with the suppliers
on technical issues;

                         (iii)       ensuring that the delivered SPE
complies with the part specification;

                         (iv)        obtaining certification of the
Aircraft with the SPE installed; and

                         (v)         obtaining for Buyer the
supplier's standard warranty for the SPE. SPE is deemed to be BFE for purposes
of Exhibit B, the Product Assurance Document, of the Agreement.

3.           Changes.

             After this Letter Agreement is signed, changes to SPE may only be
made by and between Boeing and the suppliers. Buyer's contacts with SPE
suppliers relating to design (including selection of materials


<PAGE>   117
1910-1
Page 3


and colors), weights, prices or schedules are for informational purposes only.
If Buyer wants changes made to any of the above, requests must be made directly
to Boeing for negotiating with the supplier.

4.           Proprietary Rights.

             Boeing's obligation to purchase SPE will not impose upon Boeing any
obligation to compensate Buyer or any supplier for any proprietary rights Buyer
may have in the design of the SPE.

5.           Remedies.

             If Buyer does not comply with the obligations above, Boeing may:

             (i)         delay delivery of the Aircraft;

             (ii)        deliver the Aircraft without installing
the SPE;

             (iii)       substitute a comparable part and
invoice Buyer for the cost;

             (iv)        increase the Aircraft Price by the
amount of Boeing's additional costs attributable to such noncompliance.

6.           Buyer's Indemnification of Boeing.

             Buyer will indemnify and hold harmless Boeing from and against all
claims and liabilities, including costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees)
incident thereto or incident to successfully establishing the right to
indemnification, for injury to or death of any person or persons, including
employees of Buyer but not employees of Boeing, or for loss of or damage to any
property, including Aircraft, arising out of or in any way connected with any
non conformance or defect in any SPE and whether or not arising in tort or
occasioned in whole or in part by the negligence of Boeing, whether active,
passive or imputed. This indemnity will not

apply with respect to any non conformance or defect caused solely by Boeing's
installation of the SPE.

Very truly yours,

THE BOEING COMPANY

Subject:                 Letter Agreement No. 1910-2 to
                         Purchase Agreement No. 1910-
                         Spares Initial Provisioning

This Letter Agreement amends Purchase Agreement No. 1910 dated of even date
herewith (the Agreement) between The Boeing Company (Boeing) and Trans World
Airlines, Inc. (Buyer) relating to Model 757-231 aircraft.

Reference is also made to Purchase Agreement No. 1771, dated December 15, 1992,
between The Boeing Company (Boeing) and International Lease Finance Corporation
(Lessor) under which Lessor purchased Boeing Model 757-200 aircraft, including
aircraft leased to Buyer. Reference is also made to that certain Aircraft Lease
Agreement between Buyer and Lessor, under which Lessor agreed to lease the
aircraft to Buyer.

The aircraft purchased direct from Boeing by Buyer and the aircraft leased by
Buyer from Lessor are collectively referred to as the Aircraft (the Aircraft).

All terms used herein and in the Purchase Agreement, and not defined herein,
will have the same meaning as in the Agreement.

1.           Applicability.

             This letter will apply to initial provisioning for the 757-200
Aircraft covered by the Agreement and under lease by Buyer from Lessor.

2.           Initial Provisioning Meeting.


             Boeing will conduct an initial provisioning meeting (Initial
Provisioning Meeting) with Buyer to establish mutually agreeable procedures to
accomplish Buyer's initial provisioning of spare parts for the Aircraft. The
parties will agree, during the Initial 


<PAGE>   120
1910-2
Page 2


Provisioning Meeting on the operational data to be provided by Buyer for
Boeing's use in preparing its quantity recommendations for initial provisioning
of spare parts for the Aircraft, exclusive of special tools, ground support
equipment, engines and engine parts (Provisioning Items). Such operational data
to be provided by Buyer will be the data described in Section E of Boeing Manual
D6-49090, entitled "Initial Provisioning Implementation Manual, Boeing Model
757, 767, 777, 747-400 and 737-300, -400 and - 500" (Boeing Initial Provisioning
Implementation Manual) which will be furnished to Buyer prior to the Initial
Provisioning Meeting. The parties will also agree on the provisioning
documentation to be provided by Boeing. Such data will be essentially in
accordance with the provisions of Chapter 1 of ATA International Specification
2000, Revision 1, dated April 20, 1989, as described in Boeing Initial
Provisioning Implementation Manual D6-49090 (such data will be hereinafter
referred to collectively as the "Provisioning Data"). Boeing will provide
instruction in the use of the initial provisioning documentation. This
instruction will be provided in conjunction with the Initial Provisioning
Meeting. In addition, the parties will discuss spares ordering procedures and
other matters related to the provisioning for the Aircraft. The time and
location for such Initial Provisioning Meeting will be mutually agreed upon
between the parties; however, Boeing and Buyer will use their best efforts to
convene such meeting within 30 days after execution of the Agreement.

3.           Initial Provisioning Documentation.

             3.1 Provisioning Data. Boeing will furnish Provisioning Data to
Buyer on or about March 1, 1996. The Provisioning Data will be as complete as
possible and will cover Provisioning Items selected by Boeing for review by
Buyer for initial provisioning for the Aircraft. The Provisioning Data will set
forth the prices for Provisioning Items which are Boeing Spare
Parts and such prices will be firm and remain in effect until the date or dates
set forth in Paragraph 4.1, Boeing Spare Parts, by which orders must be placed
with Boeing. Boeing will, from time to time, until a date approximately 90 days
following delivery of the last Aircraft or until the delivery configuration of
each of the Aircraft is reflected in the Provisioning Data, whichever is later,
furnish to Buyer revisions to the Provisioning Data.

             3.2 Provisioning IPC. Boeing will, on or about April 28, 1996,
furnish to Buyer a Boeing Illustrated Parts Catalog (IPC), hereinafter referred
to as the "Provisioning IPC." The Provisioning IPC 


<PAGE>   121
1910-2
Page 3



will be as complete as possible and will cover Provisioning Items selected by
Boeing for review by Buyer for initial provisioning for the Aircraft. Boeing
will, from time to time, until a date approximately 90 days following delivery
of the last Aircraft, or until the delivery configuration of each of the
Aircraft is reflected in the Provisioning IPC, whichever is later, furnish to
Buyer revisions to the Provisioning IPC.

             3.3         Buyer Furnished Equipment (BFE)
                         Provisioning Data.

                         3.3.1       Boeing's Responsibility.  Boeing
will include BFE end items in the Provisioning Data and Provisioning IPC for BFE
installed on Buyer's Aircraft provided such equipment has been installed on
other Aircraft by Boeing and Boeing has data on the BFE.

                         3.3.2       Buyer's Responsibility.  Buyer
will be responsible for ensuring BFE data is provided to Boeing by the BFE
supplier in a format acceptable to Boeing for BFE not covered by 3.3.1 above. If
the data is not provided to Boeing in a timely manner and in a format acceptable
to Boeing, such BFE equipment will not be included in Boeing's Provisioning Data
or IPC.

             3.4         Other Data.  Boeing will submit to
Buyer listings of Raw Materials, Standard Parts and Bulk Materials to be used by
Buyer in the maintenance and repair of the Aircraft.

4.           Purchase from Boeing of Spare Parts as Initial
             Provisioning for the Aircraft.

             4.1 Boeing Spare Parts. Buyer will place orders, as required, for
Provisioning Items by May 15, 1996; provided, however, that in those instances
where Boeing submits any revision to the Provisioning Data, Buyer will place
orders for Boeing Spare Parts covered by such revision within 60 days following
the date of such submittal. At Buyer's request, Boeing will process "controlled
shipments" by shipping full or partial quantities of an order on a schedule
specified by Buyer, provided the final shipment is made no later than 24 months
after receipt of the order.

             4.2 Vendor Provisioning Items. Buyer may place orders with Boeing
for Provisioning Items which are manufactured by vendors or to their detailed
design and are covered by the Provisioning Data as initial provisioning for the
Aircraft. The price to Buyer for any such vendor Provisioning Item will be 112%
of the vendor's quoted price to Boeing therefor. If Buyer elects to purchase
such vendor Provisioning Items from 


<PAGE>   122
1910-2
Page 4



Boeing, Buyer will place its orders therefor in accordance with the provisions
of Paragraph 4.1, Boeing Spare Parts.

             4.3 Ground Support Equipment and Special Tools. Buyer may place
orders with Boeing for ground support equipment (GSE) and special tools
manufactured by vendors which Buyer determines it will initially require for
maintenance, overhaul and servicing of the Aircraft and/or engines. The price to
Buyer for such GSE or special tools will be one hundred twelve percent (112%) of
the vendor's quoted price to Boeing therefor. If Buyer elects to purchase such
GSE and special tools from Boeing, Buyer will place its orders therefor by the
date set forth in Paragraph 4.1, Boeing Spare Parts or such later date as the
parties may mutually agree.

             4.4 Spare Engines and Engine Spare Parts. Buyer may place orders
with Boeing for spare engines and/or engine spare parts which Buyer determines
it will initially require for support of the Aircraft or for maintenance and
overhaul of the engines. The price to Buyer for such spare engines or such
engine spare parts, will be 105% of the engine manufacturer's quoted price to
Boeing for the engine, and 112% of the engine manufacturer's quoted price to
Boeing for the engine spare parts. If Buyer elects to purchase such spare
engines or engine spare parts through Boeing, Buyer will place its orders on a
date to be mutually agreed upon during the Initial Provisioning Meeting.

             4.5 QEC Kits. Boeing will, on or about March 15, 1996, furnish to
Buyer a listing of all components which could be included in the Quick Engine
Change (QEC) kits which may be purchased by Buyer from Boeing. Buyer agrees to
review such listing and indicate by marking on one copy of such listing those
components that Buyer desires included in its QEC kits. Buyer will return such
marked copy to Boeing within 30 days after Buyer's receipt of such listing.
Within 30 days after Boeing's receipt of such marked copy, Boeing will republish
such listing to reflect only those components selected by Buyer and will provide
copies of such republished listing to Buyer. Boeing will from time to time
furnish revisions to such republished listing until a date approximately 90 days
after delivery of the last QEC kit ordered by Buyer for the Aircraft. Boeing
will furnish to Buyer as soon as practicable a statement setting forth a firm
price for the QEC kit configuration selected by Buyer. Buyer agrees to place
orders with Boeing for QEC kits by a minimum of sixty days prior to the date the
QEC kits are required on dock by Buyer.

             4.6 Payment for Provisioning Items. The 


<PAGE>   123
1910-2
Page 5



payment provisions of the General Terms Agreement between Boeing and Buyer will
be applicable to Provisioning Items ordered by Buyer from Boeing for the
Aircraft.

5.           Delivery.

             Boeing will, insofar as reasonably possible, deliver to Buyer the
Spare Parts ordered by Buyer in accordance with the provisions of this letter on
dates reasonably calculated to conform to Buyer's anticipated needs in view of
the scheduled deliveries of the Aircraft. Buyer and Boeing will agree upon the
date to begin delivery of the Provisioning Spare Parts ordered in accordance
with this letter. Where appropriate, Boeing will arrange for shipment of such
Spare Parts, which are manufactured by vendors, directly to Buyer from the
applicable vendor's facility. The routing and method of shipment for initial
deliveries and all subsequent deliveries of such Spare Parts will be as mutually
agreed between Boeing and Buyer.

6.           Substitution for Obsolete Spare Parts.

             6.1 Obligation to Substitute. In the event that, prior to delivery
of the first Aircraft pursuant to the Agreement, any Spare Part purchased by
Buyer from Boeing in accordance with this letter is rendered obsolete or
unusable due to the redesign of the Aircraft or of any accessory, equipment or
part therefor, (other than a redesign at Buyer's request), Boeing will deliver
to Buyer new and usable Spare Parts in substitution for such obsolete or
unusable Spare Parts and Buyer will return the obsolete or unusable Spare Parts
to Boeing. Boeing will credit Buyer's account with Boeing with the price paid by
Buyer for any such obsolete or unusable Spare Part and will invoice Buyer for
the purchase price of any such substitute Spare Part delivered to Buyer.

             6.2 Delivery of Obsolete Spare Parts and Substitutes Therefor.
Obsolete or unusable Spare Parts returned by Buyer pursuant to this Item will be
delivered to Boeing at its Seattle Distribution Center, or such other
destination as Boeing may reasonably designate. Spare Parts substituted for such
returned obsolete or unusable Spare Parts will be delivered to Buyer at Boeing's
Seattle Distribution Center, or such other Boeing shipping point as Boeing may
reasonably designate. Boeing will pay the freight charges for the shipment from
Buyer to Boeing of any such obsolete or unusable Spare Part and for the shipment
from Boeing to Buyer of any such substitute Spare Part.

7.           Repurchase of Provisioning Items.



<PAGE>   124
1910-2
Page 6



             7.1 Obligation to Repurchase. During a period commencing 1 year
after delivery of the first Aircraft under the Agreement, and ending 5 years
after such delivery, Boeing will, upon receipt of Buyer's written request and
subject to the exceptions in Paragraph 7.2, Exceptions, repurchase unused and
undamaged Provisioning Items which (i) were recommended by Boeing in the
Provisioning Data as initial provisioning for the Aircraft, (ii) were purchased
by Buyer from Boeing, and (iii) are surplus to Buyer's needs.

             7.2 Exceptions. Boeing will not be obligated under Paragraph 7.1,

difficulty arising in normal business transactions between Buyer and a Boeing
Supplier with respect to product support for a Supplier Component manufactured

requested by Buyer, assist Buyer in resolving such difficulty. Assistance will

11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code"), all as more
fully described in the Prospectus (as defined below); and

- ----------------

         (1)      These share numbers are included herein for illustrative
         purposes only and are based on the issuance of an aggregate of fifty
         million shares of Voting Equity in connection with the Restructuring,
         including shares of Common Stock issuable as Conditional Consideration,
         and have not been adjusted for dilution.

If on any Issuance Date TWA does not issue Incentive Shares because the
applicable Target Price has not been met during the applicable Measurement
Period, the Employees shall be deemed to have earned such shares at such future
time during the Term, if any, as the Market Price equals or exceeds such Target
Price, and such shares shall, in such event, be issued on the earlier of (i) the
Issuance Date immediately following the achievement of the applicable Target
Price or (ii) the business day immediately preceding an M&A Event.

         If shares of Common Stock are issued in a Future Restructuring, any
additional Incentive Shares issuable hereunder as a result of such Future
Restructuring(s) shall be issued only to the extent that the Ownership
Percentage, after taking into account any shares of Voting Equity issued as a
result of such Future Restructuring, is below the Adjusted Maximum Percentage.

         Section 5. ADJUSTMENT TO OWNERSHIP PERCENTAGE. If and to the extent, as
a result of

                  (i)      a Future Restructuring or

                  (ii)     the issuance of new Common Stock in lieu of cash
                           payment obligations on securities issued in
                           connection with the Restructuring,

the Ownership Percentage is reduced below the Adjusted Base Ownership
Percentage, then the number of Incentive Shares to be issued in each of the
years 1999 through 2002 shall be increased so 


                                       8
<PAGE>   9
that each incremental percentage of Voting Equity outlined in the Table included
in Section 4 hereof is increased by one-quarter of the difference between the
new Ownership Percentage and the Adjusted Base Ownership Percentage but in no
event (A) by more than one percentage point in each year or (B) shall the
Ownership Percentage exceed the Adjusted Maximum Percentage. The withdrawal from
any Employee Trust or any sale or other disposition of any shares of Voting
Equity by any Employee or Trustee shall be disregarded and deemed not to have
occurred for purposes of computing any percentage under Section 4 or otherwise
hereunder.

         Section 6. DEFEASANCE OPTION. Other than in connection with an M&A
Event, TWA shall have the right to defease its obligation to issue any unearned
Incentive Shares by paying to the Employees, on any Defeasance Date an amount in
immediately available funds equal to the product of (i) the number of Incentive
Shares which TWA desires to defease and (ii) the greater of (A) the applicable
Target Price(s) for the shares to be defeased and (B) eighty percent (80%) of
the Market Price of such shares determined as of the Defeasance Date.

         Section 7. GRANT ADJUSTMENT UPON EQUITY OFFERING. If, in one or more
public or private transactions, TWA issues shares of Common Stock at a price
equal to or greater than $11.00 per share where the aggregate proceeds or debt
reductions therefrom exceeds $20 million, then the Grants scheduled to be made
in 2001 and 2002 shall be accelerated by aggregating such Grants and allocating
the resulting aggregate equally to all then remaining Grants other than those
which were scheduled to be made in 2001 and 2002.

         Section 8. STOCK PURCHASE RIGHT. Upon not less than 30 nor more than 45
days prior written notice to the Company,

                  (i)      at any time during the Term after July 15, 1997 or

                  (ii)     upon the consummation during the Term of an M&A
                           Event with a Sale Price of more than $17.72,

the Stock Purchase Trustee on behalf of the Employees will have the right
exercisable quarterly by notice in writing to TWA, accompanied by the necessary
immediately available funds given to purchase from TWA for cash a number of
additional shares of Voting Equity up to an aggregate as to all such quarterly
purchases of 2% of the Voting Equity then outstanding (the "Stock Purchase
Shares") at a price per share equal to eighty percent (80%) of (A) the Market
Price determined as of such date or (B) the Sale Price, as the case may be. The
rights to purchase any such Stock Purchase Shares shall be allocated to the
Employee Trusts in accordance with the Allocable Group Percentage. Employees
will be entitled to make an election whether to acquire for cash a pro rata
portion of the Stock Purchase Shares allocable to their respective Employee
Group except that one or more Employee Groups (other than the non-


                                       9
<PAGE>   10
contract employees and the TWUA) may after August 22, 1997 agree among
themselves through their duly authorized collective bargaining representatives
upon a reallocation of any unexercised rights to purchase provided such
agreement is in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Company. The Stock Purchase Trustee will be entitled to execute any such
purchase elections on behalf of Employees in each Employee Group by payment in
cash to the Company of the purchase price for that proportion of the Stock
Purchase Shares being so purchased (up to but not exceeding the Allocable Group
Percentage of the Stock Purchase Shares applicable to such Employee Group). All
Stock Purchase Shares so purchased shall be acquired in a cash transaction and
shall be issued by TWA (on behalf of the Employees for which the Stock Purchase
Trustee is purchasing) to the applicable Employee Trusts in Employee Preferred
Stock, in the case of the IAM, ALPA and IFFA Employee Trusts, and in Common
Stock in the case of the non-contract/TWUA Employee Trust, in each case for
allocation to the account of the individual purchasing Employees.

         The Company shall make such payroll deduction arrangements available to
purchasing Employees as the Company, after consultation with applicable
collective bargaining representatives of affected Employees, deems appropriate
and reasonable to allow those Employees who wish to purchase Voting Equity
pursuant to this provision except in the case of an M&A Event. The purchase
price of Stock Purchase Shares purchased pursuant to payroll deduction shall be
determined as of the date sufficient cash has been accumulated to effect the
purchase.

         Section 9. MERGER, SALE OR CONSOLIDATION OF TWA. Upon the occurrence of
an M&A Event, TWA shall issue to the Employee Trusts for the benefit of
Employees immediately prior to or concurrently with the consummation of such
transaction:

         (A) if the Sale Price is equal to or in excess of any of the Target
         Prices set forth in Section 4 hereof as to which a Grant has not
         previously been made, that number of Incentive Shares to which
         Employees would otherwise have been entitled under the Program, based
         upon an assumed Market Price equal to the Sale Price on any subsequent
         Issuance Date; provided, however, that in the event the Sale Price
         falls between two Target Prices, the number of Incentive Shares to be
         issued pursuant to the terms of this Paragraph (A) will be determined
         by interpolation between such Target Prices on a straight-line basis;
         and

         (B) if the Ownership Percentage is less than the M&A Maximum Percentage
         and the Sale Price is greater than the average of both of the Fill-Up
         Prices but less than the Target Price applicable to the year 1999, the
         number of Incentive Shares necessary to increase the Ownership
         Percentage by the 

                                       10
<PAGE>   11
         following amounts, less the number of Incentive Shares theretofore
         issued:

                  (1)      if the Sale Price is equal to or more than $0.60 but
                           less than $1.20 above the average of both the Fill-Up
                           Prices, two percent (2%);

                  (2)      if the Sale Price is equal to or more than $1.20 but
                           less than $1.80 above the average of both the Fill-Up
                           Prices, three and one-half percent (3.5%); and

                  (3)      if the Sale Price is $1.80 or more above the
                           average of both the Fill-Up Prices, five percent
                           (5%);

         provided, however, that in no event shall the number of Incentive
         Shares to be issued pursuant to this Paragraph (B) increase the
         Ownership Percentage above the M&A Maximum Percentage.

         Section  10. CASH CONTRIBUTION.  If, following both

                  (i)      the issuance to Third Parties by TWA of a number of
                           shares of Common Stock for cash or property equal to
                           1.0% or more of the total number of shares of Voting
                           Equity outstanding immediately following consummation
                           of the Restructuring and the issuance of all shares
                           of Common Stock issued as Conditional Consideration
                           and

                  (ii)     the issuance by TWA of shares of Voting Equity
                           pursuant to Paragraphs (A) and (B) of Section 9
                           hereof,

the Ownership Percentage is below the lesser of the M&A Maximum Percentage or
the Adjusted Maximum Percentage, TWA shall at the sole election of the
applicable Union (on behalf of Employees who are represented by such Union) or
of TWA (on behalf of non-contract employees) make either (a) an immediate cash
contribution to the pension plan for the benefit of the applicable Employees and
cause the surviving entity of the M&A Event to agree to such contribution or (b)
an immediate cash payment to each applicable Employee equal to (y) the
applicable Employee's allotment, determined on a pro rata basis, of the number
of shares of Voting Equity necessary to increase the Ownership Percentage to the
lesser of the M&A Maximum Percentage and the Adjusted Maximum Percentage
multiplied by (z) the Sale Price. The applicable Union or TWA, as the case may
be, may elect that a contribution will be made in whole or in part to the
Employee's pension plan or in whole or in part to the Employee, provided that
each Employee receives his full allotment and that the election by such Union or
TWA will not be made on an Employee 

                                       11
<PAGE>   12
by Employee basis, but will be made uniformly (according to such Employee's
allotment) on behalf of all Employees represented by such Union or TWA, as the
case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 10,
neither a Union nor TWA may elect to contribute to an Employee's pension plan an
amount that would when aggregated with all other payments required to be made to
such pension plan in the same year violate any rule or limitation imposed by
ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

         Section 11. TERM. The Term of the Program shall commence on the
Effective Date and end on July 15, 2002.

         Section 12. TAX WITHHOLDING. In the event that any payment by TWA
hereunder, any issuance or distribution of Incentive Shares hereunder or the
exercise of any stock purchase right hereunder gives rise to taxable
compensation income for any Employee or former Employee with respect to which
TWA is required by federal, state or local law to withhold applicable taxes, TWA
shall have the right to deduct and withhold any such taxes from any payment or
payments otherwise due to, or for the benefit of, such Employee or former
Employee (including, without limitation, any payment to, or for the benefit of,
such Employee or former Employee hereunder) or, at TWA's election, to withhold
Incentive Shares otherwise deliverable to, or for the benefit of, such Employee
or former Employee having a fair market value equal to the amount of taxes
required to be withheld; provided that TWA shall not withhold such Incentive
Shares if and to the extent that such Employee or former Employee pays to TWA,
for application to the applicable taxes, an amount equal to the taxes required
to be withheld. In the event that TWA elects to deduct and withhold such taxes
from any payment or payments otherwise due to, or for the benefit of, such
Employee or former Employee rather than withholding Incentive Shares, TWA shall
endeavor in good faith to withhold such taxes from the last such payment or
payments which are due before withholding with respect to such taxable
compensation income is required by law and which in the aggregate (and after
taking into account any other required withholding) are at least equal to the
amount of such taxes to be withheld.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, TWA has caused this Program to be duly adopted by
it, as of the date hereinabove first written.

The Board of Directors
Trans World Airlines, Inc.:
