such Transferred Interest as of the applicable Effective Time for such
Transferred Interest. Because the actual amount of the Aircraft 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 Aircraft 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
11
<PAGE>
Transferred Interest were in excess of the actual Aircraft 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 Aircraft 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
Aircraft 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 a
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 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 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 Release
Amount applicable to the Transferred Interest relating to such Aircraft.
Contemporaneously with the reinstatement of an Aircraft into this Agreement, the
Purchase Price will be increased in an amount equal to the Release Amount
applicable to the Transferred Interest relating to such Aircraft. If at any time
prior to the last Effective Time to occur pursuant to the terms hereof, any
Aircraft which is subject of a 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 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.

thereof), and until so paid over, any Aircraft Income or Lessee Deposits
received by Assignor in respect of any such Transferred Interest shall be
received and held by Assignor in trust for Assignee. Assignee hereby covenants
and agrees to pay over to Assignor, no later than five (5) Business Days after
receipt by Assignee from and after the applicable Effective Time, any amounts
paid to or for the benefit of Assignee that constitute Reserved Rights which
relate to a Transferred Interest earlier transferred (including any amounts
payable as interest in respect thereof), and until so paid over any such amounts
received by Assignee shall be received and held by Assignee in trust for
Assignor.

Assignor hereby covenants and agrees promptly to forward to
Assignee any notice Assignor receives from any party to any of the Operative
Agreements (other than Assignee) relating to any of the Transferred Interests.
Assignee hereby covenants and agrees promptly to forward to Assignor any notice
Assignee receives from any party to any of the Operative Agreements (other than
Assignor) pursuant to and in accordance with this Agreement, the Assignment and
Assumption Agreement, the Trust Agreements or any other Operative Agreement
related to the Reserved Rights. Assignor hereby covenants and agrees to notify
Assignee of any Reserved Right, describing the circumstances of such Reserved
Right in reasonable detail, promptly after Assignor has actual knowledge of
facts or circumstances giving rise to a Reserved Right and that such facts and
circumstances constitute a Reserved Right.
SECTION 11. Further Assurances
Each party agrees, upon the reasonable request of the other
party at any time and from time to time, promptly to execute and deliver all
such further documents and promptly to take and forbear from all such action as
may be reason ably necessary or appropriate in order to more effectively confirm
or carry out the provisions of this Agreement or any of the Ancillary
Agreements, including, without limitation, the filing of any Assignment and
Assumption Agreement with the FAA pursuant to the Act or the CAA. The parties
agree that the transactions are fully effective as of the applicable Effective

indemnify and hold Assignor harmless on an After-Tax Basis for) any and all

gross receipts taxes (but excluding any taxes in the nature of any income tax)

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.
(b) Notice of IRS Reports

to indemnify Assignor under any Operative Agreement 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

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 or any of the Operative 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 (c) Assignor

12(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.

<PAGE>
(d) Assignee's Indemnity
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
warranty made by Assignee or any of its Affiliates under this Agreement or any
Ancillary Agreement to which it or any of its Affiliates is a party, (ii) the
ownership, leasing, use or operation of any Transferred Interest on or after the
Effective Time applicable to such Transferred Interest including, without
limitation, any obligations relating to the Trust Estate or any of the Operative
Agreements relating to such Transferred Interest which arise from acts,
omissions, events or circumstances occurring or accruing on or after the
Effective Time with respect to such Transferred 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 the Operative Agreements
entered into by Assignee, or to which Assignee consents or forbears, in any such
case without the prior written consent of Assignor (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld) that affects any of the Reserved Rights; provided,
however, that with respect to any Transferred Interest which includes a Lease,
such indemnification obligation shall only relate to modifications, amendments
or other changes made or agreed to during the period beginning on the Effective
Date applicable to such Transferred Interest and ending on the date that is
twenty-four (24) months after the termination of the Lease included in such
Transferred Interest (which period shall be deemed to include any renewals,
extensions or continuations of such Lease). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a)
Assignee shall not be liable for any Damages to the extent that Assignor has a
recovery available to it under any insurance policy which was in effect on or
prior to the Effective Time; (b) Assignee shall not be liable for any Damages
attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Assignor; (c)
Assignee shall not be liable for any Damages in excess of the Purchase Price and
(d) Assignee shall be liable pursuant to this Section 12(d) only to the extent
that the aggregate Damages incurred by the Assignor Indemnitees which are
required to be indemnified by Assignee exceed $50,000 in which event, Assignee
shall then also be liable for the initial $50,000 of aggregate cumulative
Damages incurred by the Assignor Indemnitees.

(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
a Lease, shall survive until the later of (A) twenty-four (24) months after the
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
Interest, shall survive until twenty-four (24) months after the first Effective
Time to occur under this Agreement.
SECTION 13. 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 12;
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
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
31
<PAGE>
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
to obtain the discharge and release of or otherwise eliminate any Lien set forth
on Schedule 5(h) hereto. If Assignor assumes any such settlement or any such
negotiations, it shall pursue such settlement or negotiations in good faith.
Assignor shall not be liable for any settlement or discharge of any such Lien
effected without its written consent, but
if Assignor consents to any such settlement or discharge, Assignor agrees to
indemnify Assignee from and against any loss or liability for which indemnity is
available hereunder and which is specified in such settlement or discharge.

resulted in the failure of the transactions contemplated hereby being
consummated on or before the Outside Date.

PENDING LITIGATION
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.
