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

                    "After-Tax  Basis"  means on a basis  such that any  payment

applicable  tax rate and taking into account any related  credits or  deductions
allowed to the recipient of such payment in respect of the indemnified  matters)
resulting from the receipt (actual or  constructive)  of such payments and where
the indemnitee is treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes,  the
"highest  applicable tax rate" means the highest  applicable federal tax rate in
effect for individuals at the time the indemnity payment is made plus 6%.

                    "Agreement"  shall have the  meaning  assigned  to it in the
preamble hereof.


                    "Aircraft"  means the aircraft more fully described on Parts
A and B of  Schedule  1  attached  hereto  and,  with  respect  to each  Foreign

Assignor's  present and future  right,  title and  interest in, to and under the
Trust Estate,  the Trust  Agreements  and all other  Operative  Agreements,  all

with any of the  foregoing,  but excluding,  in each case,  the Reserved  Rights
relating  to or  associated  with any of the  foregoing.  The  term  Transferred
Interest followed  immediately by a manufacturer's  serial number of an Aircraft
(e.g., "Transferred Interest 19711") shall mean, in each case, collectively, all
of Assignor's  present and future right, title and interest in, to and under the
Trust  Estate,  the Trust  Agreement  and  other  Operative  Agreements,  Lessee
Deposits and Income  relating to or  associated  with the Aircraft  bearing such
manufacturer's serial number.

                    "Allocable  Portion  Percentage"  means, with respect to any
Aircraft,  the amount  obtained by dividing the Appraised Value of such Aircraft

                    (b)    Transfer of Income and Lessee Deposits

                           For the  Receivable  Effective  Date,  each  Daylight
Effective  Time and on the Mop-Up Date,  contemporaneously  with the  Receivable
Effective Date, such Daylight Effective Time or on the Mop-Up Date, and for each
Effective  Time that does not  constitute  a Daylight  Effective  Time or is not
deemed  to occur on the  Mop-Up  Date,  promptly  at the  beginning  of the next
Business Day after such Effective Time, Assignor shall wire transfer immediately
available funds to Assignee, at an account designated in writing by Assignee, in
an amount equal to the Income and Lessee Deposits estimated by Assignor pursuant
to  Section  4(d)(i)  hereof  to  constitute  part of the  Transferred  Interest
transferred (or deemed to be  transferred) as of the Receivable  Effective Date,
such Effective Time or as of the Mop-Up Date.

                    (c)    First Effective Date; Mop-Up Date

                           Each of Assignor  and Assignee  covenants  and agrees
that  (i) if  each  of the  conditions  precedent  in  Section  7(a)-(r)  (as to
Assignor) or Section  8(a)-(l) (as to Assignee)  are  satisfied or waived by the
appropriate  party,  the first  Effective  Time  with  respect  to any  Aircraft
Transferred  Interest will occur on the Start Date and (ii) the  Effective  Time
for each and every Aircraft  Transferred  Interest will occur not later than the
close of business in New York on the Mop-Up Date.  Each of Assignor and Assignee
covenants and agrees that the Receivable Effective Date will occur no later than
the sixth Business Day after each of the conditions precedent in Subsection 7(s)
through (v) (as to Assignor) or Subsection 8(m) through (o) (as to Assignee) are
satisfied  or waived by the  appropriate  party.  Each of Assignor  and Assignee
further  agrees that at any time after the  earlier of (i) the seventh  Business
Day after the Start Date and (ii) the last  Effective  Time to occur pursuant to
the terms  hereof,  (A) Assignor is hereby  authorized to withdraw from the Cash
Account,  an amount  equal to the Cash  Amount  less any  reduction  of the Cash
Amount pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 4(c) or pursuant to Section
4(d)(ii)  less one-half of the fees owed to the Escrow Agent and (B) Assignee is
hereby authorized to withdraw from the Cash Account all other funds in excess of
the amount set forth in clause (A); provided, however, if Assignee withdraws the
Cash  Amount  pursuant  to the  foregoing  clause (i) and there is a  subsequent
reduction in the Cash Amount pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 4(c),
then  Assignor  shall  promptly  return  to  Assignee  an  amount  equal to such
subsequent  reduction  plus  interest  at the  rate of 5.3% per  annum  from the
withdrawal  date through the date of repayment to Assignee.  On the Mop-Up Date,
so long as (i) the  conditions  precedent  set forth in Section 7 hereof  (other
than with respect to the location of the Aircraft)  shall have been satisfied or
waived by Assignor, Assignor shall be obligated to deliver, with respect to each
Aircraft  Transferred Interest that has not been assigned previously to Assignee
(including  any Aircraft  Transferred  Interest  which has not been  transferred
previously because the Aircraft relating to such Aircraft  Transferred  Interest
has been the  subject  of a Loss of Title but as to which such Loss of Title has
been cured or otherwise  corrected on or prior to the Mop-Up  Date),  Assignment
and Assumption  Agreements,  the evidence of authorization  described in Section
8(e)(iv),  any consents referred to in Section 5.1(b), the opinions described in
Section 8(i) and any other  instruments  or documents as Assignee or its counsel
shall reasonably request and (ii) the conditions  precedent set forth in Section
8 hereof  (other than with respect to the location of the  Aircraft)  shall have
been  satisfied or waived by Assignee,  Assignee  shall be obligated to deliver,
with respect to each  Aircraft  Transferred  Interest that has not been assigned
previously to Assignee  (including any Aircraft  Transferred  Interest which has
not been transferred  previously  because the Aircraft relating to such Aircraft
Transferred  Interest  has been the  subject  of a Loss of Title but as to which

                                       13

such  Loss of Title has been  cured or  otherwise  corrected  on or prior to the
Mop-Up  Date),   Assignment   and   Assumption   Agreements,   the  evidence  of
authorization  described in Section 7(j)(v), any consents referred to in Section
6.1(b),  the opinions  described in Section  7(m) and any other  instruments  or
documents as Assignor or its counsel shall reasonably  request. If on the Mop-Up
Date any of the conditions  precedent set forth in Section 7 or Section 8 hereof
(other than with respect to the location of the  Aircraft)  are not satisfied or
waived  by  the  applicable  party  with  respect  to any  Aircraft  Transferred
Interest,  any Aircraft which is subject of such Aircraft  Transferred  Interest
will no longer be the  subject  of this  Agreement  and this  Agreement  will be
deemed to be reformed to delete all  references  to such  Aircraft  and the such
Aircraft  Transferred  Interest  and the  Purchase  Price  will be reduced in an
amount equal to the Allocable  Portion  Percentage for such Aircraft and each of
the Note Amount and the Cash Amount as set forth on Schedule 4(a) hereof will be
adjusted on a pro rata basis.

                    (d)    Settlement of Income and Lessee Deposits

                           (i) Prior to assignment of a Transferred  Interest to
Assignee  hereunder,  Assignor shall estimate the Income and any Lessee Deposits
that have been  received  by  Assignor  or the Owner  Trustee  relating  to such
Transferred  Interest as of the applicable  Effective Time for such  Transferred
Interest.  Because  the actual  amount of the  Income  and any  Lessee  Deposits
relating  to a  Transferred  Interest  and  received  by  Assignor or such Owner
Trustee will not be readily  determinable  until after the applicable  Effective
Time, a final calculation cannot be made on that date. Therefore, within fifteen
(15)  Business  Days  after the end of the month in which  such  Effective  Time
occurs,  Assignor  shall  provide  Assignee  with  such  final  calculation  (in
reasonable detail) of the Income and any Lessee Deposits that have been received
by Assignor or the Owner Trustee relating to such Transferred  Interest.  To the
extent the  calculation  indicates  that the  amounts  transferred  by  Assignor
pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof with respect to such  Transferred  Interest were
in excess of the actual Income and any Lessee  Deposits  received by Assignor or
the Owner Trustee relating to such Transferred Interest, Assignee shall promptly
pay the amount of such excess to Assignor  (plus  interest on such amount at the
rate of 5.3% per annum from the  applicable  date of payment to  Assignee to the
date of repayment to Assignor). To the extent the calculation indicates that the
amounts  transferred by Assignor pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof with respect to
such  Transferred  Interest  were less than the  actual  Income  and any  Lessee
Deposits  received by Assignor or the Owner Trustee relating to such Transferred
Interest,  Assignor shall promptly pay the amount of such deficiency to Assignee
(plus  interest on such  amount at the rate of 5.3% per annum from the  Business
Day following the applicable Effective Time to the date of payment to Assignee).
An adjustment to the Purchase Price for Income under this Section  4(d)(i) shall
be treated by the  parties as a  purchase  price  adjustment  for all income tax
purposes.

                           (ii) If at any time prior to the last  Effective Time
to occur  pursuant  to the terms  hereof,  any  Aircraft  which is subject of an
Aircraft  Transferred  Interest  not yet  transferred  by  Assignor  to Assignee
suffers a Total  Loss,  such  Aircraft  will no longer  be the  subject  of this
Agreement  and this  Agreement  will be deemed  to be  reformed  to  delete  all
references  to such  Aircraft and the related  Aircraft  Transferred  Interests;
provided, however, that with respect to any such Aircraft, if such Total Loss is
due to a Loss of Title and if Assignor cures or otherwise  corrects such Loss of
Title by regaining or recovering the use thereof or title thereto on or prior to
the Mop-Up Date,  such Aircraft  will be deemed to be  reinstated  and once more
subject to this  Agreement and this  Agreement  will be deemed to be reformed to
include all  previously  deleted  references  to such  Aircraft  and the related
Aircraft  Transferred  Interests.  Contemporaneously  with  the  removal  of any
Aircraft from the terms of this Agreement, the Purchase Price will be reduced in
an amount equal to the Allocable  Portion  Percentage for such Aircraft and each
of the Note Amount and the Cash Amount as set forth on Schedule 4(a) hereof will
be adjusted on a pro rata basis.  Contemporaneously with the reinstatement of an
Aircraft into this Agreement,  the Purchase Price will be increased in an amount
equal to the Allocable Portion Percentage for such Aircraft and each of the Note
Amount and the Cash Amount as set forth on Schedule 4(a) hereof will be adjusted
on a pro rata basis.  If at any time prior to the last  Effective  Time to occur
pursuant  to the terms  hereof,  any  Aircraft  which is subject of an  Aircraft
Transferred  Interest not yet  transferred  by Assignor to Assignee  suffers any
property  damage or loss not  constituting a Total Loss and such property damage
or loss  is not  cured  or  corrected  prior  to the  time  when  such  Aircraft
Transferred Interest is transferred (or deemed to be transferred) by Assignor to
Assignee,  Assignor  shall pay to Assignee any  insurance  proceeds  received by
Assignor with respect to such property  damage or loss promptly after receipt by
Assignor of such insurance proceeds;  provided, however, that Assignor shall not
enter into any  settlement  of any  insurance  claim  without the prior  written
consent of Assignee, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld.

actual  knowledge of Assignor,  threatened  against  Assignor  before any court,

                    (b) Not later than the close of  business  on May 12,  1997,
Assignor  shall  require each  Offering  Party with whom it is still  engaged in
discussions  to submit a final  binding  offer,  subject only to  acceptance  by
Assignor.  Not later than the close of business on May 16, 1997,  Assignor shall
(i) determine  whether any such offer constitutes a Superior  Proposal,  (ii) if
there  is more  than one  Superior  Proposal,  select  which  Superior  Proposal
Assignor  intends to accept and (iii) provide written notice to Assignee setting
forth all the material terms and conditions of such selected  Superior  Proposal
("SP Notice").

                    (c) After receipt of the SP Notice, Assignee shall have five

and hold Assignor  harmless on an After-Tax Basis for) any and all registration,
docu ment or  filing  fees and any and all sales  taxes,  use taxes and  similar
transfer  taxes  (including,  without  limitation,  any  charges,  such as gross
receipts taxes (but excluding any taxes in the nature of any income tax) in lieu
thereof)  (collectively,  "Transfer  Taxes"),  that may be imposed in connection
with the sale,  assignment and transfer of any Transferred  Interests including,
without limitation,  any penalties, fines or interest thereon and those Transfer
Taxes relating to the transfer of rights and other  interests in and to, and the
act of  assuming  duties,  liabilities  and  obligations  in, to and under  this

the Aircraft,  the  Operative  Agreements  or any of the  Receivable  Agreements
together with all reasonable and documented  out-of-pocket  costs,  expenses and
attorney's  fees incurred in  connection  therewith.  Assignor  hereby agrees to
perform such acts, including,  without limitation,  attending the closing of the
transactions  contemplated  hereby at a site or sites selected by Assignee,  and
executing  such  documents as may be reasonably  necessary to minimize  Transfer
Taxes.  The parties  further agree to furnish each other with such documents and
certificates  as they may reasonably  request in connection  with any claims for
exemption from the payment of Transfer Taxes.

receipt from the IRS of any written  proposed or final revenue  agent's  report,
30-day  letter or notice of deficiency in which an adjustment is proposed to the
federal  income taxes of Assignor for which any of the Lessees would be required
to indemnify  Assignor  under any Operative  Agreement or any of the  Receivable
Agreements and,  thereafter,  shall upon request keep Assignee apprised at least
monthly  of the  progress  of any  protest  or  proceeding  in  respect  of such
adjustment.

                           (ii)  Assignee  shall  promptly  notify  Assignor  of
receipt from the IRS of any written  proposed or final revenue  agent's  report,
30-day  letter or notice of deficiency in which an adjustment is proposed to the
federal  income taxes of Assignee for which any of the Lessees would be required
to indemnify Assignee under any Operative Agreement and, thereafter,  shall upon
request keep  Assignor  apprised at least monthly of the progress of any protest
or proceeding in respect of such adjustment.

                    (c)    Assignor's Indemnity

                           Assignor  hereby  covenants and agrees upon demand of
Assignee to pay and assume liability for, and indemnify,  protect,  defend, save
and keep  harmless  Assignee  and each of its  Affiliates  and in each such case
their  respective  directors,  officers,  employees  and agents  (the  "Assignee
Indemnitees"), on an After-Tax Basis, from and against any and all Damages which
may at any time or from time to time be imposed  upon,  incurred  by or asserted
against  any  of the  Assignee  Indemnitees  in any  way  relating  directly  or
indirectly  to,  or  arising  out  of,  (i)  any  inaccuracy  or  breach  of any
representation  or  warranty  made  by  Assignor  under  this  Agreement  or any
Ancillary Agreement to which it is a party, (ii) the ownership,  leasing, use or
operation of any Transferred  Interest prior to the Effective Time applicable to
such  Transferred  Interest  including,   without  limitation,  any  obligations
relating to the Trust  Estate,  any of the  Operative  Agreements  or any of the
Receivable  Agreements  relating to such  Transferred  Interest which arise from
acts,  omissions,  events or  circumstances  occurring or accruing  prior to the
Effective Time with respect to such Transferred Interest,  but not including any
Assumed Liabilities,  (iii) the failure of Assignor to perform or observe any of
its obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to which it is a
party,  (iv) any  litigation,  claim or action  brought by a limited  partner of
Assignor against any Assignee Indemnitee to the extent such litigation, claim or
action  directly arises out of and relates to the  transactions  contemplated by
this Agreement other than to the extent any litigation,  claim or action relates
directly  or  indirectly  to,  or arises  out of,  the  breach by such  Assignee
Indemnitee of the terms of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, or (v) any
Liens set forth on Schedule 5(h) hereto; provided that (a) Assignor shall not be
liable for any Damages to the extent that  Assignee has a recovery  available to
it under any insurance  policy which was in effect on or prior to the applicable
Effective Time; (b) Assignor shall not be liable for any Damages attributable to
the gross  negligence or willful  misconduct of Assignee or its Affiliates;  and

Section 13(c) only to the extent that the aggregate  cumulative Damages incurred
by the Assignee  Indemnitees  which are required to be  indemnified  by Assignor
exceed $50,000 (the "Threshold Amount") in which event, Assignor shall then also
be liable for the initial $50,000 of aggregate  cumulative  Damages  incurred by
the Assignee Indemnitees;  provided, that, with respect to any Lien set forth on
Schedule 5(h) hereto,  (x) the Threshold  Amount  limitation shall not apply and
Assignor shall be liable for all Damages arising from such Liens and (y) amounts
expended by Assignor to discharge  and release  such Liens shall not  constitute
Damages to be applied toward the Threshold  Amount and only those  expenses,  if
any,  actually incurred by Assignee in connection with such discharge or release
shall be so applied.

                           Assignee  hereby  covenants and agrees upon demand of
Assignor to pay and assume liability for, and indemnify,  protect,  defend, save
and keep  harmless,  Assignor and each of its  Affiliates  and in each such case
their  respective  directors,  officers,  employees  and agents  (the  "Assignor
Indemnitees"), on an After-Tax Basis, from and against any and all Damages which
at any time or from time to time may be imposed  upon,  incurred  by or asserted
against the Assignor  Indemnitees in any way relating directly or indirectly to,
or  arising  out of,  (i) any  inaccuracy  or  breach of any  representation  or

Effective  Time  applicable  to such  Transferred  Interest  including,  without
limitation,  any obligations  relating to the Trust Estate, any of the Operative
Agreements  or any of the  Receivable  Agreements  relating to such  Transferred
Interest which arise from acts, omissions,  events or circumstances occurring or

Interest,  (iii) the failure of Assignee or any of its  Affiliates to perform or
observe  any  of  their  respective  obligations  under  this  Agreement  or any
Ancillary  Agreement to which it or any of its  Affiliates is a party,  (iv) any
Assumed Liabilities or (v) any modification, amendment or other change to any of

                    (e)    Survival of Representations and Warranties

                           All  representations  and  warranties  of the parties
hereto  contained in this Agreement  (including all Schedules  hereto) or in any
document,  statement,  certificate  or other  instrument  referred  to herein or
delivered at the applicable  Effective Time in connection with the  transactions
contemplated  hereby, that (i) relate to any Transferred Interest which includes

Effective Time applicable to such Transferred Interest or (B) twelve (12) months
after the  expiry of the Lease  included  in such  Transferred  Interest  (which
period shall not be deemed to include any renewals,  extensions or continuations
of such Lease), (ii) relate to any Transferred Interest which does not include a
Lease,  shall survive  until  twenty-four  (24) months after the Effective  Time
applicable to such Transferred Interest and (iii) do not relate to a Transferred

Time to occur under this Agreement.

SECTION 14.         Indemnification Procedure

(a) Any Assignee  Indemnitee or Assignor  Indemnitee (the  "Indemnified  Party")
seeking  indemnification  hereunder shall give to the party obligated under this
Agreement   to  provide   indemnification   to  such   Indemnified   Party  (the
"Indemnitor")  a notice  ("Claim  Notice")  describing in reasonable  detail the
facts giving rise to its claim for indemnification  hereunder, and shall include
in such Claim Notice (if then known) the amount or method of  computation of the
amount of the claim,  and a reference to the provision of this  Agreement or any
other agreement,  document or instrument  executed and delivered hereunder or in
connection herewith upon which such claim is based; provided that a Claim Notice
in respect of any action at law or suit in equity against an  Indemnified  Party
by a third  party,  as to which  indemnification  will be sought (a "Third Party
Action"),  shall  be given  promptly  after  the  action  or suit is  commenced;
provided,  further, that failure of the Indemnified Party to give the Indemnitor
prompt notice in respect of any such Third Party Action as provided herein shall
not relieve the Indemnitor of its  obligations  hereunder,  except to the extent
such Indemnitor shall have been materially prejudiced by such failure.

                    (b) The Indemnitor  shall be entitled (but not obligated) to
assume the defense or settlement  of such Third Party Action,  or to conduct any
negotiations  or  proceedings  to settle or otherwise  eliminate any Third Party
Claim  and shall  pay the  reasonable  fees and  disbursements  of such  counsel
related to such Third Party Action.  If the Indemnitor  assumes any such defense
or settlement or any such negotiations, it shall pursue such defense, settlement
or  negotiations  in good  faith.  If the  Indemnitor  fails to elect in writing
within 30  Business  Days of the  notification  referred to above to assume such
defense, the Indemnified Party may engage counsel to defend, settle or otherwise
dispose  of such  action  or  proceeding,  which  counsel  shall  be  reasonably
satisfactory to the Indemnitor.  In any such Third Party Action, any Indemnified
Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel,  but the fees and expenses
of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless (i) the
Indemnitor and the Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed to the retention
of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding  (including any
impleaded  parties)  include both the Indemnitor and the  Indemnified  Party and
representation  of both the  Indemnitor  and the  Indemnified  Party by the same
counsel would be inappropriate  due to actual or potential  differing  interests
between them. It is understood that the Indemnitor shall not, in connection with
any Third Party Action or related  Third Party Action in the same  jurisdiction,
be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate  firm (in addition
to local  counsel)  for all  Persons to be  indemnified  pursuant to Section 13;
provided that the Indemnitor will be so liable if (x) the Indemnified  Party has
reasonably  concluded that there may be legal  defenses  available to it in such
Third Party Action that are different from or in addition to those  available to


                                       38
<PAGE>








the  Indemnitor  or (y) a conflict  or  potential  conflict  exists  between the
Indemnified  Party and the  Indemnitor in such Third Party Action (in which case
the Indemnitor will not have the right to direct the defense of such Third Party
Action with respect to which such conflict  exists on behalf of the  Indemnified
Party), but only to the extent such fees and expenses are incurred in connection
with such  conflicting  issues.  Any such  separate  firm shall be designated in
writing by the  Indemnified  Party.  The Indemnitor  shall not be liable for any
settlement  of any  proceeding of such Third Party Action  effected  without its
written  consent,  but if the Indemnitor  consents to any such  settlement,  the
Indemnitor  agrees to indemnify the Indemnified  Party from and against any loss
or liability for which  indemnity is available  hereunder and which is specified
in such settlement or judgment.  No Indemnitor shall,  without the prior written
consent  of the  Indemnified  Party  (which  consent  shall not be  unreasonably
withheld  or  delayed),  effect any  settlement  of any  pending  or  threatened
proceeding  in  respect of which any  Indemnified  Party is or could have been a
party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified  Party,
unless such settlement  includes an  unconditional  release of such  Indemnified
Party  from  all  liability  or  claims  that  are the  subject  matter  of such
proceeding and such settlement only involves the payment of money.

                    (c)  Assignor  shall  be  entitled  in all  cases  (but  not
obligated) to assume the settlement and to conduct  negotiations  or proceedings

Equity Resources,  Inc. v. Polaris Investment Management Corporation,  et al. On
or about April 18, 1997, an action  entitled Equity  Resources,  Inc. v. Polaris
Investment  Management  Corporation,  et al. was filed in the Superior Court for
the County of Middlesex, Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The complaint names each
of Polaris Investment Management  Corporation,  Polaris Aircraft Income Fund II,
Polaris  Aircraft  Income Fund III,  Polaris  Aircraft  Income Fund IV,  Polaris
Aircraft Income Fund V, and Polaris Aircraft Income Fund VI, as defendants.  The
complaint alleges that Polaris  Investment  Management  Corporation,  as general
partner of each of the partnerships, committed a breach of its fiduciary duties,
violated  applicable  partnership  law  statutory  requirements,   and  breached
provisions of the partnership  agreements of each of the foregoing  partnerships
by  failing  to  solicit  a  vote  of the  limited  partners  in  each  of  such
partnerships in connection  with the proposed sale of the Transferred  Interests
to  Assignee  and in  failing  to  disclose  material  facts  relating  to  such
transaction.  Plaintiffs  filed a  motion  seeking  to  enjoin  the  sale of the
Transferred  Interests to Assignee,  which motion was denied by the Court on May
6, 1997.  Plaintiffs  have filed an appeal from the order  denying their request
for an injunction.
