NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q that are not historical facts may constitute “forward-looking statements,” including any statements about our expectations, beliefs, plans, predictions, forecasts, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “anticipate,” “believes,” “can,” “could,” “may,” “predicts,” “potential,” “should,” “will,” “estimate,” “plans,” “projects,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expects,” “intends” and similar words or phrases. These statements are only predictions and involve estimates, known and unknown risks, assumptions and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in such statements, including as a result of the following factors, among others:

the extent to which the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic and measures taken to contain its spread ultimately impact our business, results of operation and financial condition;
our inability to obtain additional financing on favorable terms, if required, to complete the acquisition of sufficient aircraft as currently contemplated or to fund the operations and growth of our business;
our inability to obtain refinancing prior to the time our debt matures;
our inability to make acquisitions of, or lease, aircraft on favorable terms;
our inability to sell aircraft on favorable terms or to predict the timing of such sales;
impaired financial condition and liquidity of our lessees;
changes in overall demand for commercial aircraft leasing and aircraft management services;
deterioration of economic conditions in the commercial aviation industry generally;
potential natural disasters and terrorist attacks and the amount of our insurance coverage, if any, relating thereto;
increased maintenance, operating or other expenses or changes in the timing thereof;
changes in the regulatory environment, including tariffs and other restrictions on trade;
our inability to effectively oversee our managed fleet;
the failure of any manufacturer to meet its contractual aircraft delivery obligations to us, including or as a result of technical or other difficulties with aircraft before or after delivery, resulting in our inability to deliver the aircraft to our lessees;
other factors affecting our business or the business of our lessees and aircraft manufacturers or their suppliers that are beyond our or their control, including natural disasters, pandemics (such as COVID-19) and measures taken to contain its spread, and governmental actions; and
the factors discussed under “Part I — Item 1A. Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, “Part II — Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 and other SEC filings, including future SEC filings.

The factors noted above and the risks included in our other SEC filings may be increased or intensified as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, including if there is a resurgence of the COVID-19 virus after the initial outbreak subsides. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic ultimately impacts our business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. See the risk factor in “Part II — Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, “The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and related efforts to mitigate the pandemic have impacted our business, and the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and measures taken to contain its spread ultimately impact our business will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and are difficult to predict.” All forward-looking statements are necessarily only estimates of future results, and there can be no assurance that actual results will not differ materially from expectations. You are therefore cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1.   Company Background and Overview

Air Lease Corporation (the “Company”, “ALC”, “we”, “our” or “us”) is a leading aircraft leasing company that was founded by aircraft leasing industry pioneer, Steven F. Udvar-Házy. The Company is principally engaged in purchasing new commercial jet transport aircraft directly from manufacturers, such as The Boeing Company (“Boeing”) and Airbus S.A.S (“Airbus”). The Company leases these aircraft to airlines throughout the world with the intention to generate attractive returns on equity. As of March 31, 2020, the Company owned a fleet of 300 aircraft in its operating lease portfolio, managed 82 aircraft and had 399 aircraft on order with aircraft manufacturers. In addition to its leasing activities, the Company sells aircraft from its operating lease portfolio to third parties, including other leasing companies, financial services companies, airlines and other investors. The Company also provides fleet management services to investors and owners of aircraft portfolios for a management fee.

Note 2.  Basis of Preparation and Critical Accounting Policies

The Company consolidates financial statements of all entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest, including the accounts of any Variable Interest Entity in which the Company has a controlling financial interest and for which it is the primary beneficiary. All material intercompany balances are eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments, which are in the opinion of management necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows at March 31, 2020, and for all periods presented. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the year ending December 31, 2020. These financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Note 3.  Recently Issued Accounting Standards

On April 10, 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a question-and-answer document regarding accounting for lease concessions and other effects of the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic. The document clarifies that entities may elect to not evaluate whether lease-related relief that lessors provide to mitigate the economic effects of COVID-19 on lessees is a lease modification under Leases ASC 842. The Company has chosen to continue accounting for lease concessions in accordance with lease modification accounting guidance in Topic 842.

Senior unsecured notes (including Medium-Term Note Program)

As of March 31, 2020, the Company had $12.8 billion in senior unsecured notes outstanding. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had $12.4 billion in senior unsecured notes outstanding.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company issued $1.4 billion in aggregate principal amount of Medium-Term Notes comprised of (i) $750.0 million due 2025 at a fixed rate of 2.30% and (ii) $650.0 million due 2030 at a fixed rate of 3.00%.

Unsecured revolving credit facilities

The Company has an unsecured revolving credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as agent (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). During the quarter ended March 31, 2020, the Company increased the aggregate capacity of the Revolving Credit Facility by $250.0 million to $6.1 billion. The total amount outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility was $515.0 million and $20.0 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

As of March 31, 2020, borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility will generally bear interest at either (a) LIBOR plus a margin of 1.05% per year or (b) an alternative base rate plus a margin of 0.05% per year, subject, in each case, to increases or decreases based on declines in the credit ratings for our debt. The Company is required to pay a facility fee of 0.20% per year (also subject to increases or decreases based on declines in the credit ratings for the Company’s debt) in respect of total commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are used to finance the Company’s working capital needs in the ordinary course of business and for other general corporate purposes.

On May 5, 2020, commitments totaling $92.7 million of the Revolving Credit Facility matured. Lenders hold revolving commitments totaling approximately $5.5 billion that mature on May 5, 2023, commitments totaling $245.0

(1) In addition to the Company’s commitments, as of March 31, 2020, the Company had options to acquire up to 25 Airbus A220 aircraft. If exercised, deliveries of these aircraft are scheduled to commence in 2023 and continue through 2028.
(2) Our Airbus A320/321neo aircraft orders include 47 long-range variants and 29 extra long-range variants.

Pursuant to the Company’s purchase agreements with Boeing and Airbus for new aircraft, the Company and each manufacturer agree to contractual delivery dates for each aircraft ordered. These dates can change for a variety of reasons, and in the last several years manufacturing delays have significantly impacted the Company’s actual delivery dates. For several years, the Company has experienced delivery delays for certain of its Airbus orderbook aircraft, primarily the A321neo aircraft and, to a lesser extent, A330neo aircraft. The worldwide grounding of the Boeing 737 MAX aircraft (“737 MAX”) began on March 10, 2019, and remains in effect. As a result, Boeing has temporarily halted production and delivery of all 737 MAX aircraft and our new 737 MAX aircraft have been significantly delayed. Lifting of the grounding is subject to the approval of global regulatory authorities and the Company is unable to speculate as to when this may occur. Even after the grounding is lifted, Boeing’s ability to deliver 737 MAX aircraft may be impacted as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company is currently in discussions with Boeing regarding the mitigation of possible damages resulting from the grounding of, and the delivery delays associated with the 737 MAX aircraft that the Company owns or has on order, which could result in changes to the commitment table.

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has caused delivery delays and is expected to continue to cause delays of aircraft in the Company’s orderbook. As discussed in further detail in Note 13, “Subsequent Events,” the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in numerous travel restrictions and business shutdowns, including a temporary closure of final aircraft assembly facilities for each of Boeing and Airbus. Given the dynamic nature of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Company is in ongoing discussions with Boeing and Airbus to determine the impact and duration of delivery delays. However, the Company is not yet able to determine the impact of the delivery delays, and as such, the delivery dates listed above could materially change.

10

Table of Contents

The aircraft purchase commitments discussed above also could be impacted by lease cancellation. The Company’s leases typically provide that the Company and the airline customer each have a cancellation right related to certain aircraft delivery delays. Our purchase agreements with Boeing and Airbus also generally provide that the Company and the manufacturer each have cancellation rights that typically are parallel with the Company’s cancellation rights in its leases. Our leases and our purchase agreements with Boeing and Airbus typically provide for cancellation rights starting at one year after the original contractual delivery date, regardless of cause.

Commitments for the acquisition of these aircraft, calculated at an estimated aggregate purchase price (including adjustments for anticipated inflation) of approximately $26.8 billion at March 31, 2020, updated through May 7, 2020, are due as follows (in thousands):

The Company has made non-refundable deposits on the aircraft for which the Company has commitments to purchase of $1.6 billion as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, which are subject to manufacturer performance commitments. If the Company is unable to satisfy its purchase commitments, the Company may be forced to forfeit its deposits. Further, the Company would be exposed to breach of contract claims by our lessees and manufacturers.

Note 6.  Rental Income

At March 31, 2020, minimum future rentals on non-cancellable operating leases of flight equipment in the Company’s fleet, which have been delivered as of March 31, 2020, are as follows (in thousands):

Note 7.  Earnings Per Share

Basic net earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that would occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock; however, potential common equivalent shares are excluded if the effect of including these shares would be anti-dilutive. The Company’s two classes of common stock, Class A and Class B Non-Voting, have equal rights to dividends and income, and therefore, basic and diluted earnings per share are the same for each class of common stock. As of March 31, 2020, the Company did not have any Class B Non-Voting common stock outstanding.

11

Table of Contents

Diluted net earnings per share takes into account the potential conversion of stock options, restricted stock units, and warrants using the treasury stock method and convertible notes using the if-converted method. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company did not exclude any potentially dilutive securities, whose effect would have been anti-dilutive, from the computation of diluted earnings per share. The Company excluded 990,100 and 940,470 shares related to restricted stock units for which the performance metric had yet to be achieved as of March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Note 8.  Fair Value Measurements

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring and Non-recurring Basis

The Company had a cross-currency swap related to its Canadian dollar notes issued in December 2019. The fair value of the swap as a foreign currency exchange derivative is categorized as a Level 2 measurement in the fair value hierarchy and is measured on a recurring basis. As of March 31, 2020, the estimated fair value of the foreign currency exchange derivative liability was $19.9 million. As of December 31, 2019, the estimated fair value of the foreign currency exchange derivative asset was $5.4 million.

Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Values

The fair value of debt financing is estimated based on the quoted market prices for the same or similar issues, or on the current rates offered to the Company for debt of the same remaining maturities, which would be categorized as a Level 2 measurement in the fair value hierarchy. The estimated fair value of debt financing as of March 31, 2020 was approximately $13.1 billion compared to a book value of $14.6 billion. The estimated fair value of debt financing as of December 31, 2019 was $14.1 billion compared to a book value of $13.7 billion.

The following financial instruments are not measured at fair value on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 31, 2020, but require disclosure of their fair values: cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. The estimated fair value of such instruments at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 approximates their carrying value as reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of all these instruments would be categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.

Note 9.  Shareholders’ Equity

The Company was authorized to issue 500,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, $0.01 par value, at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had 113,639,911 and 113,350,267 Class A common shares issued and outstanding, respectively. The Company did not have any shares of Class B non-voting common stock, $0.01 par value, issued or outstanding as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

The Company was authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.01 par value, at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding with an aggregate liquidation preference of $250.0 million.

On March 5, 2019, the Company issued 10,000,000 shares of 6.150% Fixed-to-Floating Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), $0.01 par value, with a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share. The Company will pay dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock only when, as and if declared by the board of directors. Dividends will accrue, on a non-cumulative basis, on the stated amount of $25.00 per share at a rate per annum equal to: (i) 6.150% during the first five years and payable quarterly in arrears beginning on June 15, 2019, and (ii) three-month LIBOR plus a spread of 3.650% per annum from March 15, 2024, reset quarterly and payable quarterly in arrears beginning on June 15, 2024.

The Company may redeem shares of the Series A Preferred Stock at its option, in whole or in part, from time to time, on or after March 15, 2024, for cash at a redemption price equal to $25.00 per share, plus any declared and unpaid dividends to, but excluding, the redemption date, without accumulation of any undeclared dividends. The Company may also redeem shares of the Series A Preferred Stock at the Company’s option under certain other limited conditions.

Note 10.  Stock-based Compensation

On May 7, 2014, the stockholders of the Company approved the Air Lease Corporation 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”). Upon approval of the 2014 Plan, no new awards may be granted under the Amended and Restated 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2010 Plan”). As of March 31, 2020, the number of stock options (“Stock Options”) and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) authorized under the 2014 Plan is approximately 4,948,064. Stock Options are generally granted for a term of 10 years and vest ratably over a three-year period. The Company has issued RSUs with four different vesting criteria: those RSUs that vest based on the attainment of book value goals, those RSUs that vest based on the attainment of Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) goals, time based RSUs that vest ratably over a time period of three years and RSUs that cliff-vest at the end of a one or two year period. The Company has two types of book value RSUs; those that vest ratably over a three-year period if the performance condition has been met, and those that vest at the end of a three-year period if the performance condition has been met. For the book value RSUs that cliff-vest at the end of a three-year period, the number of shares that will ultimately vest will range from 0% to 200% of the RSUs initially granted depending on the percentage change in the Company’s book value per share at the end of the vesting period. At each reporting period, the Company reassesses the probability of the performance condition being achieved and a stock-based compensation expense is recognized based upon management’s assessment. Book value RSUs for which the performance metric has not been met are forfeited. The TSR RSUs vest at the end of a three-year period. The number of TSR RSUs that will ultimately vest is based upon the percentile ranking of the Company’s TSR among a peer group. The number of shares that will ultimately vest will range from 0% to 200% of the RSUs initially granted depending on the extent to which the TSR metric is achieved.

The Company recorded $4.4 million and $4.2 million of stock-based compensation expense related to RSUs for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Restricted Stock Units

Compensation cost for stock awards is measured at the grant date based on fair value and recognized over the vesting period. The fair value of book value and time based RSUs is determined based on the closing market price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the date of grant, while the fair value of TSR RSUs is determined at the grant date using a Monte Carlo simulation model. Included in the Monte Carlo simulation model were certain assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables, such as expected volatility, risk-free interest rate and expected dividends. To appropriately value the award, the risk-free interest rate is estimated for the time period from the valuation date until the vesting date and the historical volatilities were estimated based on a historical timeframe equal to the time from the valuation date until the end date of the performance period.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company granted 527,246 RSUs of which 143,237 are TSR RSUs. The following table summarizes the activities for our unvested RSUs for the three months ended March 31, 2020:

As of March 31, 2020, there was $41.7 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock-based payments granted to employees. Total unrecognized compensation cost will be recognized over a weighted-average remaining period of 2.14 years.

Note 11.  Aircraft Under Management

As of March 31, 2020, we managed 82 aircraft across three aircraft management platforms. We managed 52 aircraft through our Thunderbolt platform, 26 aircraft through the Blackbird investment funds and four on behalf of a financial institution.

We managed 26 aircraft on behalf of third-party investors, through two investment funds, Blackbird I and Blackbird II. These funds invest in commercial aircraft and lease them to airlines throughout the world. We provide management services to these funds for a fee. As of March 31, 2020, the Company's non-controlling interests in each fund is 9.5% and are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The Company’s investment in these funds aggregated $48.5 million and $46.5 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and is included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We continue to source aircraft investment opportunities for Blackbird II. As of March 31, 2020, Blackbird II has remaining equity capital commitments to acquire up to approximately $1.2 billion in aircraft assets, for which we have committed to fund up to $29.1 million related to these potential investments.

Additionally, we continue to manage aircraft that we sell through our Thunderbolt platform. As of March 31, 2020, we managed 52 aircraft sold across three separate transactions. We have non-controlling interests in two of these entities of approximately 5.0%, which are accounted for under the cost method of accounting. During the period ending March 31, 2020, we completed the sale of three aircraft from our operating lease portfolio through our Thunderbolt platform. The Company’s total investment in aircraft sold through our Thunderbolt platform was $9.9 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and is included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note 12.  Flight Equipment Held for Sale

As of March 31, 2020, we had five aircraft, with a carrying value of $175.1 million, which were held for sale and included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. These aircraft will be sold through our Thunderbolt platform and we expect the sale of all five aircraft to be completed in 2020. We cease recognition of depreciation expense once an aircraft is classified as held for sale. As of December 31, 2019, we had eight aircraft classified as held for sale, with a carrying value of $249.6 million.

Note 13.  Subsequent Events

Dividend Distribution

On May 6, 2020, our board of directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per share on our outstanding Class A common stock. The dividend will be paid on July 9, 2020 to holders of record of our Class A common stock as of June 5, 2020. Our board of directors also approved a cash dividend of $0.384375 per share on our outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, which will be paid on June 15, 2020 to holders of record of our Series A Preferred Stock as of May 31, 2020.

COVID-19 Pandemic

On January 30, 2020, the spread of the COVID-19 outbreak was declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern by WHO. On March 11, 2020, WHO characterized the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in governmental authorities around the world implementing numerous measures to try to contain the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions, border closures, quarantines, shelter-in-place or total lock-down orders and business limitations and shutdowns (subject to exceptions for certain essential operations and businesses). These measures, coupled with a decrease in consumer spending on travel as a result of COVID-19, have materially impacted airline traffic and operations throughout the world, including for our airline customers. It is unclear how long these restrictions will remain in place and they may remain in place in some form for an extended period of time. Aircraft manufacturers and suppliers also have been impacted, including causing the temporary closure of Boeing and Airbus’ final assembly facilities and also closures of various facilities across their supply chain. As the virus has spread in March and April, the relatively limited impacts the Company saw in Asia in the early part of the year have accelerated and are now occurring throughout the rest of the world, with a rapid decline in global air travel.

Table of Contents

Beginning in the first quarter of 2020 and continuing in the second quarter, the Company began receiving requests from most of its customers for accommodations such as deferral of lease payments or other lease concessions. The Company evaluates such requests on a case-by-case basis and has worked out accommodation arrangements with approximately 46% of its lessees, generally in the form of partial lease deferrals for payments due in the first and second quarter of 2020, typically with a short-term repayment period, with the majority of the deferrals repaid by the end of this year. In many cases, lease extensions were also negotiated as part of the deferral accommodations. The Company remains in active discussions with its other airline customers and may continue to provide accommodation arrangements on a case-by-case basis.

While lease deferrals may delay our receipt of cash, we generally recognize the lease revenue during the period even if a deferral is provided to the lessee, unless we determine collection is not reasonably assured. We monitor all lessees with past due lease payments and discuss relevant operational and financial issues facing those lessees in order to determine an appropriate course of action. In addition, if collection is not reasonably assured, we will not recognize rental income for amounts due under our lease contracts and will recognize revenue for such lessees on a cash basis.

Given the dynamic nature of this situation, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the impacts of COVID-19 on its business, results of operations and financial condition for the foreseeable future.

ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

Air Lease Corporation (the “Company”, “ALC”, “we”, “our” or “us”) is a leading aircraft leasing company that was founded by aircraft leasing industry pioneer, Steven F. Udvar-Házy. We are principally engaged in purchasing new commercial jet transport aircraft directly from aircraft manufacturers, such as The Boeing Company (“Boeing”) and Airbus S.A.S. (“Airbus”), and leasing those aircraft to airlines throughout the world with the intention to generate attractive returns on equity. In addition to our leasing activities, we sell aircraft from our operating lease portfolio to third-parties, including other leasing companies, financial services companies, airlines and other investors. We also provide fleet management services to investors and owners of aircraft portfolios for a management fee. Our operating performance is driven by the growth of our owned fleet, the terms of our leases, the interest rates on our debt, and the aggregate amount of our indebtedness, supplemented by the gains from our aircraft sales, trading and other activities and our management fees.

COVID-19 Pandemic

On January 30, 2020, the spread of the COVID-19 outbreak was declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern by the World Health Organization (“WHO”). On March 11, 2020, WHO characterized the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in governmental authorities around the world implementing numerous measures to try to contain the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions, border closures, quarantines, shelter-in-place or total lock-down orders and business limitations and shutdowns (subject to exceptions for certain essential operations and businesses). It is unclear how long these restrictions will remain in place and they may remain in place in some form for an extended period of time. These measures, coupled with a decrease in consumer spending on travel as a result of COVID-19, have materially impacted airline traffic and operations throughout the world, including for our airline customers. Aircraft manufacturers and suppliers also have been impacted, including causing the temporary closure of Boeing and Airbus’ final assembly facilities and also closures of various facilities across their supply chain.

In January and February of 2020, the primary impact of the virus was limited to Asia. As the virus has spread in March and April, the relatively limited impacts we saw in Asia in the early part of the year have accelerated and are now occurring throughout the rest of the world, with a rapid decline in global air travel.

Beginning in the first quarter of 2020 and continuing in the second quarter, we began receiving requests from our customers for accommodations such as deferral of lease payments or other lease concessions. As of May 7, 2020, most of our lessees have requested some form of rental relief. We evaluate such requests on a case-by-case basis and have worked out accommodation arrangements with approximately 46% of our lessees, generally in the form of partial lease deferrals for payments due in the first and second quarter of 2020, typically with a short-term repayment period, with the majority of the deferrals repaid by the end of this year. In many cases, lease extensions were also negotiated as part of the deferral accommodations. As of May 7, 2020, the Company has agreed to defer approximately $124.6 million in lease payments which represents approximately 6% of our total revenue for fiscal year 2019. We remain in active discussions with our other airline customers and expect to continue to provide accommodation arrangements on a case-by-case basis.

Our collection rate during the first quarter of 2020 and the month of April 2020 was 90% and 86%, respectively. Collection rate is defined as the sum of cash collected from lease rentals and maintenance reserves, and includes cash recovered from outstanding receivables from previous periods, as a percentage of the total contracted receivables due for the period. The collection rate is calculated after giving effect to lease deferral arrangements made as of May 7, 2020. Our lease utilization rate for the period ended March 31, 2020 was 99.7%. For the month of April 2020, our lease utilization rate was 99.8%. The lease utilization rate is calculated based on the number of days each aircraft was subject to a lease or letter of intent during the period, weighted by the net book value of the aircraft. It is possible that our collection rate or lease utilization rate could decline in the near future as a result of accommodation arrangements we

17

Table of Contents

have made or could make in the future, including providing additional lease concessions to airline customers already receiving a concession or if our airline customers do not make their lease payments even absent lease concessions.

Depending on the severity and longevity of the COVID-19 pandemic, the efforts taken to reduce its spread and the possibility of a resurgence of COVID-19, some of our lessees may return aircraft to us before the return date in their lease agreement or experience insolvency or initiate bankruptcy or similar proceedings that result in aircraft being returned to us. If this occurs, we may not be able to reposition the aircraft with other airlines as quickly as we have historically been able to do or we may incur increased costs in repositioning such aircraft. As a result, our revenues and collection rates would decline. In addition, as of March 31, 2020, we had commitments to purchase 399 aircraft from Airbus and Boeing for delivery through 2026, and we had placed approximately 84% of our committed order book on long-term leases for aircraft delivering through 2022. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on airlines could result in the cancellation of leases that we have in place for our committed orderbook or a decline in the number of aircraft in our order book that we can place into leases prior to their delivery. If we are not able to place aircraft from our orderbook into leases prior to delivery, it may cause a downward pressure on our lease rates or require us to sell aircraft in our fleet sooner than anticipated.

COVID-19 has disrupted some of our operations. While our employees are working remotely, due to travel restrictions and business limitations and shutdowns, some transitions of our aircraft from one lessee to another lessee have been delayed. Some planned aircraft sales have been delayed or terminated as a result of business limitations and shutdowns. We expect these disruptions to continue and they could worsen. We also expect that demand for used aircraft will decline in the near-term and that we will sell fewer used aircraft in 2020 and perhaps 2021 than we initially planned to sell.

We also experienced delivery delays related to COVID-19. While the commitment table in Note 5, “Commitments and Contingencies” above and the discussion of “Our Fleet” below reflects our current delivery expectations, we are in ongoing discussions with Boeing and Airbus to determine the extent and duration of delivery delays. The delays could result in a cancellation of leases for those aircraft. Pursuant to such contractual provisions, we are in discussions with lessees who are considering cancelling a small number of our 737 MAX leases with us. Given the dynamic nature of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we are not yet able to determine the full impact of the delivery delays, and we expect such delivery dates could materially change, and as a result, our future growth will be negatively impacted.

COVID-19 has caused disruption in the financial markets and have caused volatility and uncertainty in the bond market. We finance the purchase of aircraft and our business with available cash balances, internally generated funds, including through aircraft sales and trading activity, and debt financings. As of March 31, 2020, we had an undrawn balance of $5.6 billion under our committed unsecured revolving credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as agent, which reflects our recent increase in our facility size by $250.0 million in March 2020. We believe we continue to have access to the unsecured debt capital markets, although we have not accessed this market since January 2020 when we issued $1.4 billion in aggregate principal amount of Medium-Term Notes. We could also seek to enter into more secured debt financings, including financings supported through the Export-Import Bank of the United States or other export credit agencies (“ECAs”) to fund future aircraft deliveries from our orderbook. Our liquidity is discussed below in more detail under “Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

While we cannot currently reasonably estimate the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and measures taken to contain its spread will ultimately impact our business, we believe the airline industry will eventually recover and aircraft travel will return to historical levels over the long term. We believe we are well positioned to offer solutions for airlines, because we can offer the ability to lease younger, more fuel-efficient aircraft at a time when airlines will be focused on managing costs.

As the COVID-19 pandemic and efforts to mitigate its spread continue, we expect our business, results of operations and financial condition to be negatively impacted, and could have a larger impact on our results of operations for the second quarter and remainder of this year than has been reflected in our first quarter results for 2020. Depending on the severity and longevity of the COVID-19 pandemic, the related efforts taken to reduce its spread, and the possibility of a resurgence of COVID-19, the COVID-19 pandemic could have a material, adverse impact on future revenue growth, liquidity and cash flow. Given the dynamic nature of this situation, we cannot reasonably estimate the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, results of operations and financial condition for the foreseeable future.

First Quarter Overview

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we purchased and took delivery of eight aircraft from our new order pipeline, purchased one aircraft in the secondary market and sold three aircraft from our held for sale portfolio ending the period with a total of 300 aircraft with a net book value of $19.2 billion. The weighted average lease term remaining on our operating lease portfolio was 7.2 years and the weighted average age of our fleet was 3.7 years as of March 31, 2020. Our fleet grew by 2.8% based on net book value of $19.2 billion as of March 31, 2020, compared to $18.7 billion as of December 31, 2019. In addition, we had a managed fleet of 82 aircraft as of March 31, 2020, compared to a managed fleet of 83 aircraft as of December 31, 2019. We had a globally diversified customer base comprised of 108 airlines in 61 countries. As of May 7, 2020, all aircraft, except for two aircraft, in our operating lease portfolio, were subject to letters of intent or lease agreements.

During the first three months of 2020, we entered into supplemental agreements with Boeing to convert nine Boeing 737 MAX to three Boeing 787-9 aircraft. As of March 31, 2020, we had commitments to purchase 399 aircraft from Airbus and Boeing for delivery through 2026, with an estimated aggregate commitment of $26.8 billion. We ended the first quarter of 2020 with $28.8 billion in committed minimum future rental payments and placed approximately 84% of our committed order book on long-term leases for aircraft delivering through 2022. This includes $14.2 billion in contracted minimum rental payments on the aircraft in our existing fleet and $14.6 billion in minimum future rental payments related to aircraft which will be delivered during the remainder of 2020 through 2024.

In November 2019, we entered into an agreement to sell 19 aircraft through our Thunderbolt platform to investors. Our Thunderbolt platform facilitates the sale of mid-life aircraft to investors while allowing to continue the management of these aircraft for a fee. Through this transaction, we retained a non-controlling interest of approximately 5.0% in the entity. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we sold a total of three aircraft into our Thunderbolt platform for proceeds of approximately $65.2 million. As of March 31, 2020, we completed the sales of 14 of the 19 aircraft and expect to complete the sale of the remaining five aircraft in 2020. As of March 31, 2020 these five aircraft were classified as held for sale and included in Other assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheets

During the first three months of 2020, we issued $1.4 billion in Medium-Term Notes, with maturities ranging between 2025 and 2030 and that bear interest at fixed rates between 2.30% and 3.00%. In addition, we increased the aggregate capacity of our committed unsecured revolving credit facility by $250.0 million to $6.1 billion, ending the quarter with total liquidity of $6.3 billion. We ended the first quarter of 2020 with total debt outstanding, net of discounts and issuance costs, of $14.4 billion, of which 86.4% was at a fixed rate and 97.6% of which was unsecured. Our composite cost of funds was 3.16% as of March 31, 2020.

Our total revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 increased by 9.7% to $511.4 million, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2019. This increase was principally driven by the continued growth of our fleet, partially offset by a lower amount of end of lease revenue recognized as compared to the same period in 2019. Our net income available to common stockholders for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 was $133.3 million compared to $138.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. Our diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 was $1.17 compared to $1.23 for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. The decrease in net income available to common stockholders in the first quarter of 2020 as compared to 2019 was primarily due to the decrease in the amount of end of lease revenue recognized.

Our adjusted net income before income taxes excludes the effects of certain non-cash items, one-time or non-recurring items, that are not expected to continue in the future and certain other items. Our adjusted net income before income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $182.8 million or $1.61 per diluted share, compared to $187.7 million or $1.67 per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The decrease in our adjusted net income before income taxes was primarily due to the decrease in the amount of end of lease revenue recognized. Our adjusted pre-tax profit margin for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was 35.7% compared to 40.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax profit margin and adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes are measures of financial and operational performance that are not defined by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). See Note 1 under the “Results of Operations” table for a discussion of adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax profit margin and adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes as non-GAAP measures and reconciliation of these measures to net income available to common stockholders.

(1) In addition to the Company’s commitments, as of March 31, 2020, the Company had options to acquire up to 25 Airbus A220 aircraft. If exercised, deliveries of these aircraft are scheduled to commence in 2023 and continue through 2028.
(2) Our Airbus A320/321neo aircraft orders include 47 long-range variants and 29 extra long-range variants.

Aircraft Delivery Delays

Pursuant to our purchase agreements with Boeing and Airbus for new aircraft, we and each manufacturer agree to contractual delivery dates for each aircraft ordered. These dates can change for a variety of reasons, and in the last several years manufacturing delays have significantly impacted our actual delivery dates. For several years, we have experienced delivery delays for certain of our Airbus orderbook aircraft, primarily the A321neo aircraft and, to a lesser extent, A330neo aircraft. The worldwide grounding of the Boeing 737 MAX aircraft (“737 MAX”) began on March 10, 2019, and remains in effect. As a result, Boeing has temporarily halted production and delivery of all 737 MAX aircraft and our new 737 MAX aircraft have been significantly delayed. Lifting of the grounding is subject to the approval of global regulatory authorities and we are unable to speculate as to when this may occur. Even after the grounding is lifted, Boeing’s ability to deliver 737 MAX aircraft may be impacted as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. We are currently in discussions with Boeing regarding the mitigation of possible damages resulting from the grounding of, and the delivery delays associated with the 737 MAX aircraft that we own or have on order, which could result in changes to the commitment table.

21

Table of Contents

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has caused delivery delays of aircraft in our orderbook and is expected to continue to cause delays of aircraft. As discussed in further detail above in “COVID-19 Pandemic,” the pandemic has resulted in numerous travel restrictions and business shutdowns, including the temporary closure of final aircraft assembly facilities for each of Boeing and Airbus. Given the dynamic nature of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we are in ongoing discussions with Boeing and Airbus to determine the impact and duration of delivery delays. However, we are not yet able to determine the impact of the delivery delays, and as such, the delivery dates listed above could materially change.

The aircraft purchase commitments discussed above also could be impacted by lease cancellation. Our leases typically provide that we and our airline customer each have a cancellation right related to certain aircraft delivery delays. Our purchase agreements with Boeing and Airbus also generally provide that the Company and the manufacturer each have cancellation rights that typically are parallel with our cancellation rights in our leases. Our leases and our purchase agreements with Boeing and Airbus generally provide for cancellation rights starting at one year after the original contractual delivery date, regardless of cause. Pursuant to such contractual provisions, we are in discussions with lessees who are considering cancelling a small number of 737 MAX leases with us.

The following table, which is subject to change based on Airbus and Boeing delivery delays, shows the number of new aircraft scheduled to be delivered as of March 31, 2020. As noted above, we expect delivery delays for all aircraft deliveries in our orderbook, including Boeing 737 MAX delivery delays after the grounding of such aircraft is lifted. We are currently in discussions with Boeing and Airbus to determine the extent and duration of delivery delays, but given the dynamic nature of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we are not yet able to determine the full impact of the delivery delays.

Aircraft Industry and Sources of Revenues

Our revenues are principally derived from operating leases with scheduled and charter airlines throughout the world. As of March 31, 2020, we have a globally diversified customer base comprised of 108 airlines in 61 different countries, with over 95% of our business revenues from airlines domiciled outside of the U.S., and we anticipate that most of our revenues in the future will be generated from foreign customers.

Performance of the commercial airline industry is linked to global economic health and development, which may be negatively impacted by economic disruption, macroeconomic conditions and geopolitical and policy risks, among other factors. COVID-19 has caused significant disruption to the commercial airline industry resulting in a meaningful decline in air travel demand and subsequent flight cancellations, negatively impacting airlines, aircraft manufacturers, and other related businesses. The International Air Transport Association (“IATA”) reported that, primarily due to COVID-19, passenger traffic fell 22% year-over-year for the first three months of 2020 and 53% year-over-year for March 2020 and IATA expects airline passenger volumes to fall 48% in 2020 as compared to 2019.

We expect a significant increase in financial difficulties for our airline customers through 2020 and perhaps longer, including the need for lease deferrals or other lease concessions, requests to return aircraft early or defaults. We expect increased airline reorganizations, liquidations, or other forms of bankruptcies, which may include our aircraft customers and result in the early return of aircraft or changes in our lease terms. As of the date of this filing, we had six aircraft across three airlines which were subject to various forms of insolvency proceedings.

22

Table of Contents

Approximately 75% of the net book value of our fleet are leased to flag carriers or airlines that have some form of governmental ownership; however, this does not guarantee our ability to collect contractual rent payments. We believe that having a large portion of the net book value of our fleet on lease with flag carriers or airlines with some form of governmental ownership, coupled with the overall quality of our aircraft and security deposits and maintenance reserves under our leases will help mitigate our customer risk.

We expect the aviation industry to recover over time from the impact of COVID-19, and in the long-term we remain optimistic. While we believe some aircraft lessors may consolidate or cease operations as a result of the pandemic, we believe the overall aircraft leasing industry has remained resilient over time across a variety of global economic conditions and remain optimistic about the long-term fundamentals of our business. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, some airlines have accelerated their plans to retire older, less fuel-efficient aircraft that have higher maintenance costs in the current environment, and we anticipate that airlines will continue to accelerate the retirement of this type of aircraft, ultimately increasing demand for newer aircraft over time. We also anticipate that when airlines need to add new aircraft to their fleet, they will increasingly elect to lease aircraft instead of purchasing aircraft to reduce capital requirements and manage other operating expenses, and that we will benefit from that trend.

We and airlines around the world have continued to experience delivery delays from Boeing and Airbus, from which we have 399 aircraft on order as of March 31, 2020, as discussed above in “Our Fleet.” The Airbus delays and the 737 MAX grounding have impacted the growth of our company as well as the growth of our airline customers, passenger growth and airline profitability and we expect this to continue. The impact of COVID-19 has also resulted in temporary closures and lower production rates and deliveries for both Boeing and Airbus, which is expected to cause further delivery delays.

The worldwide grounding of the 737 MAX began on March 10, 2019, and remains in effect. As a result, Boeing has temporarily halted production and delivery of all 737 MAX aircraft. Since March of 2019, airlines affected by this grounding have had to adjust flight schedules or cancel flights, back fill aircraft with other aircraft types or keep older aircraft in service longer. These operational changes and the uncertainty of when the 737 MAX aircraft will return to service and when Boeing will resume deliveries have impacted the profitability of certain airlines.

As of March 31, 2020, we owned and leased 15 737 MAX aircraft and we have 126 737 MAX aircraft on order. Lifting of the grounding is subject to global regulatory authorities and we are unable to speculate as to when this may occur. Because of this uncertainty, we have curtailed our leasing of MAX aircraft in our orderbook aircraft since the grounding. With respect to the 15 737 MAX aircraft we own and lease, our airline customers are obligated to continue to make payments under the lease, irrespective of any difficulties in which the lessees may encounter, including an aircraft fleet grounding. Some of our airline customers for these 15 737 MAX aircraft lease payments are in arrears.

We expect that if the grounding continues for an extended time, or if there are significant 737 MAX delivery delays even after the grounding is lifted as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, some of our customers may seek to cancel their lease contracts with us. We are in discussions with lessees who are considering cancelling a small number of 737 MAX leases with us. It is unclear at this point if we will cancel some of our 737 MAX delivery positions with Boeing or attempt to find replacement lessees. We are currently in discussions with Boeing regarding the mitigation of possible damages resulting from the grounding of and the delivery delays associated with the 737 MAX aircraft that we own and have on order.

For several years, Airbus has also had delivery delays for certain of its aircraft, primarily the A321neo aircraft and, to a lesser extent, A330neo aircraft. Those delays are continuing and have worsened. Airbus has told us to continue to expect several months of delivery delays relating to such aircraft scheduled to deliver through 2022. These delays also have impacted airline operations and the profitably of certain airlines.

Further as it relates to Airbus aircraft, in October 2019, the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative announced a 10% tariff on new aircraft imported from Europe, including Airbus aircraft. The U.S. government has recently made statements and taken certain actions that have led to, and may lead to, further changes to U.S. and international trade policies, including recently imposed tariffs affecting certain products exported by a number of U.S. trading partners, such as Europe and China. In response, many U.S. trading partners, including Europe and China, have imposed or proposed new or higher tariffs on U.S. products. We are currently monitoring the impact of this announcement on our future Airbus deliveries to U.S. customers. We cannot predict what further actions may ultimately be taken with respect

23

Table of Contents

to tariffs or trade relations between the U.S. and U.S. trading partners. Accordingly, it is difficult to predict exactly how, and to what extent, such actions may impact our business, or the business of our lessees or aircraft manufacturers. Any unfavorable government policies on international trade, such as capital controls or tariffs, may affect the demand for aircraft, increase the cost of aircraft components, further delay production, impact the competitive position of certain aircraft manufacturers or prevent aircraft manufacturers from being able to sell aircraft in certain countries. Our leases are primarily structured as triple net leases, whereby the lessee is responsible for all operating costs including taxes, insurance, and aircraft maintenance.

Given the impact of COVID-19 on our industry, it is unclear at this time how competition within the aircraft leasing industry will evolve or change in the coming months and what the corresponding impact on lease rates will be as a result of the change in the competitive landscape, COVID-19, trade matters, the aircraft delays from Airbus and Boeing or other items.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

We finance the purchase of aircraft and our business with available cash balances, internally generated funds, including through aircraft sales and trading activity, and debt financings. We have structured ourselves with the goal to maintain investment-grade credit metrics and our debt financing strategy has focused on funding our business on an unsecured basis. We currently have an undrawn balance of $5.6 billion under our revolving credit facility, which does not condition our ability to borrow on the lack of a material adverse effect to us or the general economy. Unsecured financing provides us with operational flexibility when selling or transitioning aircraft from one airline to another. We also have the ability to seek debt financing secured by our assets, as well as financings supported through the Export-Import Bank of the United States and other export credit agencies for future aircraft deliveries. Additionally, we only have approximately $319.4 million in debt maturities for the remainder of 2020, which serves to limit our near-term financing needs. Aircraft delivery delays as a product of the COVID-19 pandemic and the 737 MAX grounding are expected to further reduce our debt financing needs this year and potentially beyond. We continue to monitor COVID-19 and its impact on our overall liquidity position and outlook.

We ended the first quarter of 2020 with total debt outstanding, net of discounts and issuance costs, of $14.4 billion compared to $13.6 billion as of December 31, 2019. Our unsecured debt increased to $14.2 billion as of March 31, 2020 from $13.3 billion as of December 31, 2019. Our unsecured debt as a percentage of total debt increased to 97.6% as of March 31, 2020 from 96.6% as of December 31, 2019.

Our cash flows provided by operating activities decreased by 10.4% or $27.2 million, to $234.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to $261.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The decrease in our cash flow provided by operating activities is due to an increase in deferred lease payments during the quarter as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our cash flow used in investing activities was $672.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, which resulted primarily from the purchase of aircraft, partially offset by proceeds from our sales and trading activity. Our cash flow provided by financing activities was $853.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, which resulted primarily from the issuance of unsecured notes partially offset by the repayment of outstanding debt. We expect the impact of COVID-19, including as a result of rent deferrals and other lease concessions made or that we may make in the future to our customers, will continue to have negative impact on cash flow from operating activities.

We ended the first quarter of 2020 with available liquidity of $6.3 billion which is comprised of unrestricted cash of $732.7 million and an available borrowing capacity under our committed unsecured revolving credit facility of $5.6 billion. We believe that we have sufficient liquidity to satisfy the operating requirements of our business through the next 12 months. A key component of the ongoing liquidity available to us is our committed unsecured revolving credit facility, for which the substantial majority of the commitments mature in 2023. Our committed unsecured revolving credit facility is syndicated across 53 financial institutions from around various regions of the world, diversifying our reliance on any individual lending institution. We continue to utilize our committed unsecured revolving credit facility in the normal course of business.

The ultimate impact the COVID-19 pandemic may have on our business, results of operations and financial condition over the next 12 months is currently uncertain and will depend on certain developments, including, among

24

Table of Contents

others, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our airline customers and the magnitude and duration of the pandemic. We currently believe that our cash on hand, current debt arrangements and general ability to access the capital markets will be sufficient to finance our operations and fund our debt service requirements and capital expenditures, including aircraft acquisition over the next 12 months. We also have the ability to seek debt financing secured by our assets, as well as financings supported through the Export-Import Bank of the United States and other export credit agencies, or ECAs for future aircraft deliveries.

As of March 31, 2020, we were in compliance in all material respects with the covenants contained in our debt agreements. A ratings downgrade will not result in a default under any of our debt agreements, but it could adversely affect our ability to issue debt and obtain new financings, or renew existing financings, and it would increase the costs of certain financings. Our liquidity plans are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, and in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.

Senior unsecured notes (including Medium-Term Note Program)

As of March 31, 2020, we had $12.8 billion in senior unsecured notes outstanding. As of December 31, 2019, we had $12.4 billion in senior unsecured notes outstanding.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we issued $1.40 billion in aggregate principal amount of Medium-Term Notes comprised of (i) $750.0 million due 2025 at a fixed rate of 2.30% and (ii) $650.0 million due 2030 at a fixed rate of 3.00%.

Unsecured revolving credit facility

We have an unsecured revolving credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as agent. During the quarter ended March 31,2020, we increased the aggregate capacity of our unsecured revolving credit facility by $250.0 million to $6.1 billion. As of March 31, 2020, the total outstanding balance on our unsecured revolving credit facility was approximately $515.0 million. The total outstanding balance under our unsecured revolving credit facility was approximately $20.0 million as of December 31, 2019.

25

Table of Contents

On May 5, 2020, commitments totaling $92.7 million of our committed unsecured revolving credit facility matured. Lenders hold revolving commitments totaling approximately $5.5 billion that mature on May 5, 2023, commitments totaling $245.0 million that mature on May 5, 2022 and commitments totaling $5.0 million that mature on May 5, 2021. As of May 7, 2020, after giving effect to the commitments that matured on May 5, 2020, the aggregate capacity of our committed unsecured revolving credit facility was approximately $6.0 billion.

As of March 31, 2020, borrowings under our committed unsecured revolving credit facility will generally bear interest at either (a) LIBOR plus a margin of 1.05% per year or (b) an alternative base rate plus a margin of 0.05% per year, subject, in each case, to increases or decreases based on declines in the credit ratings for our debt. We are required to pay a facility fee of 0.20% per year (also subject to increases or decreases based on declines in the credit ratings for our debt) in respect of total commitments under our unsecured revolving credit facility. Borrowings under our committed unsecured revolving credit facility are used to finance our working capital needs in the ordinary course of business and for other general corporate purposes.

Preferred equity

On March 5, 2019, we issued 10,000,000 shares of 6.150% Fixed-to-Floating Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), $0.01 par value, with a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share. We will pay dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock only when, as and if declared by the board of directors. Dividends will accrue, on a non-cumulative basis, on the stated amount of $25.00 per share at a rate per annum equal to: (i) 6.150% during the first five years and payable quarterly in arrears beginning on June 15, 2019, and (ii) three-month LIBOR plus a spread of 3.650% per annum from March 15, 2024, reset quarterly and payable quarterly in arrears beginning on June 15, 2024.

We may redeem shares of the Series A Preferred Stock at our option, in whole or in part, from time to time, on or after March 15, 2024, for cash at a redemption price equal to $25.00 per share, plus any declared and unpaid dividends to, but excluding, the redemption date, without accumulation of any undeclared dividends. We may also redeem shares of the Series A Preferred Stock at our option under certain other limited conditions.

On February 14, 2020, our board of directors also approved a cash dividend of $0.384375 per share on our outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, which was paid on March 15, 2020 to holders of record of our Series A Preferred Stock as of February 29, 2020.

Potential Impact of LIBOR Transition

As of March 31, 2020, we had approximately $2.0 billion of floating rate debt outstanding that used LIBOR as the applicable reference rate to calculate the interest on such debt. Additionally, our Series A Preferred Stock will in the future accrue dividends at a floating rate determined by reference to LIBOR, if available. The Chief Executive of the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (the “FCA”), which regulates LIBOR, has announced that the FCA will no longer persuade or compel banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. That announcement indicates that the continuation of LIBOR on the current basis cannot and will not be guaranteed after 2021. Moreover, it is possible that LIBOR will be discontinued or modified prior to 2021. The U.S. Federal Reserve and the Bank of England have begun publishing a Secured Overnight Funding Rate and a reformed Sterling Overnight Index Average, respectively, which are currently intended to serve as alternative reference rates to LIBOR. At this time, however, it is not possible to predict the establishment of any market-accepted alternative reference rates or any other reforms to LIBOR and the effect of any such changes.

Furthermore, due to the uncertainty surrounding the discontinuation of LIBOR and the effects resulting therefrom, financial market participants have yet to establish standard fallback provisions governing the calculation of floating rate interest and dividends in the event LIBOR is unavailable. The lack of a market practice and inconsistency in fallback provisions is reflected across our floating rate debt and Series A Preferred Stock and the discontinuation of LIBOR could lead to unexpected outcomes that may vary between our various debt and equity securities that reference LIBOR to determine the rate in which interest or dividends, as applicable, accrue. For example, if LIBOR is discontinued, the various fallback provisions contained in our floating rate debt agreements could lead to such debt bearing interest at, among other things, a rate of interest equal to the interest rate last in effect for which LIBOR was determinable, a floating rate determined in reference to a predetermined fallback reference rate or an alternative reference rate to be

26

Table of Contents

agreed upon by the parties to such agreement, and a rate of interest representative of the cost to applicable lenders of funding their participation in the debt.

If the rate used to calculate interest on our outstanding floating rate debt that currently uses LIBOR and our Series A Preferred Stock were to increase by 1.0% either as a result of an increase in LIBOR or the result of the use of an alternative reference rate determined under the fallback provisions in the applicable debt if LIBOR is discontinued, we would expect to incur additional interest expense on such indebtedness as of March 31, 2020 of approximately $19.8 million on an annualized basis. Further, if LIBOR is discontinued and there is no acceptable alternative reference rate, some of our floating rate debt, including certain senior unsecured notes issued under our Medium-Term Note Program, may effectively become fixed rate debt. As a result, the cost of this debt would increase to us if and as interest rates decreased.

While we do not expect the potential impact of any LIBOR transition to have a material effect on our financial results based on our currently outstanding debt, uncertainty as to the nature of potential changes to LIBOR, fallback provisions, alternative reference rates or other reforms could adversely impact our interest expense on our floating rate debt that currently uses LIBOR as the applicable reference rate and our Series A Preferred Stock. In addition, any alternative reference rates to LIBOR may result in interest or dividend payments that do not correlate over time with the payments that would have been made on our indebtedness or Series A Preferred Stock, respectively, if LIBOR was available in its current form. Further, the discontinuance or modification of LIBOR and uncertainty of an alternative reference rate may result in the increase in the cost of future indebtedness, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, cash flow and results of operations. We intend to closely monitor the financial markets and the use of fallback provisions and alternative reference rates in 2020 in anticipation of the discontinuance or modification of LIBOR by the end of 2021.

While a ratings downgrade would not result in a default under any of our debt agreements, it could adversely affect our ability to issue debt and obtain new financings, or renew existing financings, and it would increase the cost of our financings.

Adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax profit margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity are presented as supplemental disclosure because management believes they provide useful information on our earnings from ongoing operations.

Management and our board of directors use adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax profit margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity to assess our consolidated financial and operating performance. Management believes these measures are helpful in evaluating the operating performance of our ongoing operations and identifying trends in our performance, because they remove the effects of certain non-cash items, one-time or non-recurring items that are not expected to continue in the future and certain other items from our operating results. Adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted

pre-tax profit margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity, however, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results or cash flows as reported under GAAP. Adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax profit margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity do not reflect our cash expenditures or changes in our cash requirements for our working capital needs. In addition, our calculation of adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax profit margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity may differ from the adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax profit margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity, or analogous calculations of other companies in our industry, limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure.

Three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019

Rental revenue

As of March 31, 2020, we owned 300 aircraft with a net book value of $19.2 billion and recorded $496.7 million in rental revenue for the quarter then ended, which included $5.5 million in amortization expense related to initial direct costs, which is net of overhaul revenue. In the prior year, as of March 31, 2019, we owned 280 aircraft with a net book value of $16.3 billion and recorded $455.7 million in rental revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, which included overhaul revenue, net of amortization expense related to initial direct costs, of $18.0 million. This increase was principally driven by the continued growth of our fleet, partially offset by a reduction in end of lease revenue recognized in the period as compared to prior year. In the prior period, we recognized $20.2 million of end of lease revenue in connection with an airline bankruptcy whereas we did not recognize end of lease revenue in the current period.

Aircraft sales, trading and other revenue

Aircraft sales, trading and other revenue totaled $14.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $10.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. During the quarter ended March 31, 2020, we recorded $1.6 million in gains from the sale of three aircraft from our held for sale portfolio and $5.9 million in other revenue from the forfeiture of security deposits. During the quarter ended March 31, 2019, we recorded $3.6 million in gains from the sale of six aircraft from our operating lease portfolio. As noted above, we expect the COVID-19 pandemic to have an adverse impact on demand for used aircraft and that we will sell fewer used aircraft in 2020 and potentially 2021 than we initially planned to sell.

Interest expense

Interest expense totaled $118.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $97.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The increase was primarily due to an increase in our aggregate debt balance partially offset by a decrease in our composite interest rate. We expect that our interest expense will increase as our average debt balance outstanding continues to increase. Interest expense will also be impacted by changes in our composite cost of funds.

Depreciation expense

We recorded $188.9 million in depreciation expense of flight equipment for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $159.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The increase in depreciation expense for the

30

Table of Contents

three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019, is primarily attributable to the acquisition of additional aircraft in our operating fleet during the last twelve months.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

We recorded selling, general and administrative expenses of $28.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $29.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of total revenue decreased to 5.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to 6.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2019. As we continue to add new aircraft to our portfolio, we expect over the long-term, selling, general and administrative expense to decrease as a percentage of our revenue.

Taxes

The effective tax rate was 20.1% and 21.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Changes in the tax rate were primarily driven by variances in permanent items.

Net income available to common stockholders

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we reported consolidated net income available to common stockholders of $133.3 million, or $1.17 per diluted share, compared to a consolidated net income available to common stockholders of $138.1 million, or $1.23 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Net income available to common stockholders decreased in the first quarter of 2020 as compared to 2019, principally driven by a reduction in end of lease revenue, partially offset by the continued growth of our fleet.

Adjusted net income before income taxes

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recorded adjusted net income before income taxes of $182.8 million, or $1.61 per diluted share, compared to an adjusted net income before income taxes of $187.7 million, or $1.67 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Our adjusted net income before income taxes decreased principally driven by a reduction in end of lease revenue, partially offset by the continued growth of our fleet.

Adjusted net income before income taxes and adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes are measures of financial and operational performance that are not defined by GAAP. See Note 1 under the “Results of Operations” table above for a discussion of adjusted net income before income taxes and adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes as non-GAAP measures and reconciliation of these measures to net income available to common stockholders.

(1)Future interest payments on floating rate debt are estimated using floating rates in effect at March 31, 2020.
(2)Purchase commitments reflect our estimate of future Boeing and Airbus aircraft deliveries based on information currently available to us. The actual delivery dates of such aircraft and expected time for payment of such aircraft may differ from our estimates and could be further impacted by ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the length of the grounding and the pace at which Boeing can deliver aircraft following the lifting of the 737 MAX grounding, among other factors. Purchase commitments include only the costs of aircraft in our committed order book and do not include costs of aircraft that we have the option to purchase or have the right to purchase through memorandums of understanding or letters of intent.

The above table does not include any dividends we may pay on our Series A Preferred Stock or common stock.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have not established any unconsolidated entities for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or for other contractually narrow or limited purposes. We have, however, from time to time established subsidiaries and created partnership arrangements or trusts for the purpose of leasing aircraft or facilitating borrowing arrangements, all of which are consolidated.

We have non-controlling interests in two investment funds in which we own 9.5% of the equity of each fund. We account for our interest in these funds under the equity method of accounting due to our level of influence and involvement in the funds. Also, we manage aircraft that we have sold through our Thunderbolt platform. In connection with the sale of these aircraft portfolios through our Thunderbolt platform, we hold non-controlling interests of approximately 5.0% in two entities. These investments are accounted for under the cost method of accounting.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our critical accounting policies reflecting management’s estimates and judgments are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. We have reviewed recently adopted accounting pronouncements and determined that the adoption of such pronouncements is not expected to have a material impact, if any, on our Consolidated Financial Statements. Accordingly, there have been no material changes to critical accounting policies in the three months ended March 31, 2020.

ITEM 3.   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk represents the risk of changes in value of a financial instrument, caused by fluctuations in interest rates and foreign exchange rates. Changes in these factors could cause fluctuations in our results of operations and cash flows. We are exposed to the market risks described below.

Interest Rate Risk

The nature of our business exposes us to market risk arising from changes in interest rates. Changes, both increases and decreases, in our cost of borrowing, as reflected in our composite interest rate, directly impact our net income. Our lease rental stream is generally fixed over the life of our leases, whereas we have used floating-rate debt to finance a

32

Table of Contents

significant portion of our aircraft acquisitions. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had $2.0 billion and $1.6 billion in floating-rate debt outstanding, respectively. If interest rates increase, we would be obligated to make higher interest payments to our lenders. If we incur significant fixed-rate debt in the future, increased interest rates prevailing in the market at the time of the incurrence of such debt would also increase our interest expense. If our composite interest rate were to increase by 1.0%, we would expect to incur additional interest expense on our existing indebtedness of approximately $19.8 million and $15.9 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, each on an annualized basis, which would put downward pressure on our operating margins. Further, as of March 31, 2020, 86.4% of our total debt incurred interest at a fixed rate.

We also have interest rate risk on our forward lease placements. This is caused by us setting a fixed lease rate in advance of the delivery date of an aircraft. The delivery date is when a majority of the financing for an aircraft is arranged. We partially mitigate the risk of an increasing interest rate environment between the lease signing date and the delivery date of the aircraft by having interest rate adjusters in a majority of our forward lease contracts which would adjust the final lease rate upward if certain benchmark interest rates are higher at the time of delivery of the aircraft than at the lease signing date.

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk

We attempt to minimize currency and exchange risks by entering into aircraft purchase agreements and a majority of lease agreements and debt agreements with U.S. dollars as the designated payment currency. Thus, most of our revenue and expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars. Approximately 1.0% and 0.7% of our lease revenues were denominated in foreign currency as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. As our principal currency is the U.S. dollar, fluctuations in the U.S. dollar as compared to other major currencies should not have a significant impact on our future operating results.

In December 2019, we issued C$400.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 2.625% notes due 2024. We effectively hedged our foreign currency exposure on this transaction through a cross-currency swap that converts the borrowing rate to a fixed 2.535% U.S. dollar denominated rate. See Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional details on the fair value of the swap.

ITEM 4.   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (collectively, the “Certifying Officers”), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives as the Company’s controls are designed to do, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the risk related to controls and procedures.

We have evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Certifying Officers, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of March 31, 2020. Based on that evaluation, our Certifying Officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at March 31, 2020.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2020 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we may be involved in litigation and claims incidental to the conduct of our business in the ordinary course. Our industry is also subject to scrutiny by government regulators, which could result in enforcement proceedings or litigation related to regulatory compliance matters. We are not presently a party to any enforcement proceedings or litigation related to regulatory compliance matters or material legal proceedings. We maintain insurance policies in amounts and with the coverage and deductibles we believe are adequate, based on the nature and risks of our business, historical experience and industry standards.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Other than stated below, there have been no material changes in our risk factors from those discussed under “Part I—Item 1A. Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and related efforts to mitigate the pandemic have impacted our business, and the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and measures taken to contain its spread ultimately impact our business will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and are difficult to predict.

The global pandemic resulting from the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic has disrupted some of our operations and the operations of our lessees beginning in the first quarter of 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in governmental authorities around the world implementing numerous measures to try to contain the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions, border closures, quarantines, shelter in place or total lock-down orders and business limitations and shutdowns (subject to exceptions for certain essential operations and businesses). These measures may remain in place for a significant amount of time. These measures, coupled with a decrease in consumer spending on travel as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, have materially impacted airline traffic and operations throughout the world as well as our operations and the operations of our lessees and aircraft manufacturers and suppliers, including causing the temporary closure of Boeing and Airbus’ final assembly facilities. As the virus has spread in the last few months, the relatively limited impacts we saw in Asia in the early part of the year have accelerated and are now occurring throughout the rest of the world, with a rapid deterioration of global air travel. As a result of the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, we may experience financial losses due to a number of operational factors, including but not limited to:

lease deferments, lease abatements and aircraft return requests from our lessees;
impairment or delay in our ability to remarket aircraft or otherwise re-lease aircraft on a timely basis at favorable rates;
default, bankruptcy or reorganization of our lessees;
default, bankruptcy or reorganization of airlines generally, which would place pressure on aircraft values and lease rates generally;
further delays in delivery of aircraft in our orderbook from Boeing and Airbus, including due to delays or bankruptcies of Boeing and Airbus suppliers;
cancellations of, or a decline in, placements of aircraft in our orderbook for long-term leases;
increased costs of borrowing, including if our credit ratings are ultimately downgraded;
delays and other adverse impacts on our plans to grow the size of our operating fleet;
reduced sale proceeds received in aircraft sales due to weaker market demand; and
charges recognized by us or some of our lessees as a result of the measures implemented to contain the spread of COVID-19, including impairment of aircraft and engines and other long-lived assets.

These factors may remain prevalent for a significant period of time and may continue to adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition even after the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided. In addition, if a resurgence of the COVID-19 virus occurs after the initial outbreak subsides, these factors will be exacerbated.

As of May 7, 2020, most of our lessees have requested some form of rental relief. We evaluate such requests on a case-by-case basis and have worked out accommodation arrangements with approximately 46% of our lessees. We remain in active discussions with a number of our airline customers for accommodation arrangements, such as lease payment deferrals and other lease concessions. As of May 7, 2020, the Company has agreed to defer approximately $124.6 million in lease payments, which represents approximately 6% of our total revenue for fiscal year 2019. So far,

34

Table of Contents

such solutions have generally been in the form of partial lease deferrals for payments due in the first and second quarter of 2020, typically with a short-term repayment period, with the majority of the deferrals granted so far repaid by the end of this year. In many cases, lease extensions were also negotiated as part of the deferral accommodations. We remain in active discussions with our other airline customers and may continue to provide accommodation arrangements on a case-by-case basis. While a majority of our customers are flag carriers or have some form of governmental ownership, depending on the severity and longevity of the COVID-19 pandemic, the efforts taken to reduce its spread and the possibility of a resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic, some of our lessees may still experience insolvency or initiate bankruptcy or similar proceedings. If this occurs, we may not be able to reposition the aircraft with other lessors and it could result in a significant decrease in our revenue and cash position. In addition, as of March 31, 2020, we had commitments to purchase 399 aircraft from Airbus and Boeing for delivery through 2026, and we had placed approximately 84% of our committed order book on long-term leases for aircraft delivering through 2022. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on airlines could result in the cancellation of leases that we have in place for our committed orderbook or a decline in the number of aircraft in our order book that we can place into leases prior to their delivery. If we are not able to place aircraft from our orderbook into leases prior to delivery, it may cause a downward pressure on our lease rates or require us to sell aircraft in our fleet sooner than anticipated.

We also expect delivery delays for all aircraft deliveries in our orderbook, including 737 MAX delivery delays after the grounding of such aircraft is lifted. We are currently in discussions with Boeing and Airbus to determine the extent and duration of delivery delays. The delays could result in cancellation of leases for those aircraft. We are in discussions with lessees who are considering cancelling a small number of our 737 MAX leases with us. If our customers cancel leases for aircraft that have been delayed, we typically have a cancellation right with the aircraft manufacturer that parallels our lessee’s cancellation rights. Given the dynamic nature of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we are not yet able to determine the full impact of the delivery days.

While we currently expect delays in delivery of new aircraft from our orderbook, we will be required to raise additional capital to finance these deliveries and our access to and cost of financing depends on, among other things, global economic conditions, conditions in the global financing markets, the availability of sufficient amounts of financing, our prospects and our credit ratings. As a result of COVID-19, in March and April of 2020, S&P, Fitch and Kroll each changed their outlook on our long-term issuer and senior unsecured debt ratings from “stable” to “negative.” Such change in outlook may ultimately lead to a downgrade in our credit rating. If our credit ratings are downgraded, or general market conditions were to ascribe higher risk to our rating levels, our industry, or us, our access to capital and the cost of any debt financing will be further negatively impacted. In addition, the terms of future debt agreements could include more restrictive covenants, or require incremental collateral, which may further restrict our business operations or be unavailable due to our covenant restrictions then in effect. There is no guarantee that debt financings will be available in the future to fund our orderbook deliveries, or that such financing will be available on terms consistent with our historical agreements or expectations. Although we have sufficient liquidity to satisfy the operating requirements of our business through the next 12 months, the availability of certain sources is contingent upon our ability to continue to satisfy covenants contained in our debt agreements.

We have also experienced delays and terminations of some planned aircraft sales as a result of business limitations and shutdowns resulting from the pandemic. We also expect that demand for used aircraft will decline in the near-term and that we will sell fewer used aircraft in 2020 and perhaps 2021 than we initially planned to sell. This decline in demand for used aircraft may also result in impairment charges to the aircraft in our fleet.

As this situation is ongoing and the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic is uncertain at this time, it is difficult to forecast the eventual long-term impacts on our future operating results or financial condition. We expect the COVID-19 pandemic will negatively impact our financial results, including having a larger impact on our results of operations for the second quarter and remainder of this year than has been reflected in our first quarter results for 2020. Depending on the severity and longevity of the COVID-19 pandemic, the related efforts taken to reduce its spread, and the possibility of a resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic, we could recognize a significant adverse impact to our liquidity position due to lease deferrals and other lease concessions and a significant reduction in aircraft sales. Our earnings could also be adversely impacted by decreased revenue from airlines if airlines are forced to cease operations, decreased market prices for aircraft sales and lower volumes of aircraft sales. The extent to which the coronavirus pandemic and measures taken to contain its spread ultimately impact our business will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and are difficult to predict.

The spread of COVID-19 has also caused us to modify our business practices, including transitioning all of our employees to work remotely, restricting employee travel, and cancelling physical participation events and conferences.

We may take further actions as may be required by government authorities or as we determine are in the best interests of our employees.

The COVID-19 pandemic is emerging as one of the largest disruptions to the airline industry in decades. There are no comparable recent events that provide guidance as to the long-term effect the COVID-19 pandemic may have, and, as a result, the ultimate impact of the pandemic is highly uncertain and subject to change. We do not yet know the full extent of the impacts on our business, our operations or the global economy as a whole. Even after the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided, we may continue to experience negative impacts to our financial results due to COVID-19’s global economic impact, including the availability of credit generally and our ability to obtain capital on favorable terms, adverse impacts on our liquidity, increases in our borrowing costs, decreases in consumer discretionary spending and any recession that has occurred or may occur in the future. Risks related to our ability to obtain capital on favorable terms and increased costs of borrowing are more fully described in our risk factors titled, “Our success depends in large part on our ability to obtain capital on favorable terms to finance our growth through the purchase of aircraft and to repay or refinance our outstanding debt obligations as they mature. If we are not able to obtain capital on terms acceptable to us, or at all, it would significantly impact our ability to compete effectively in the commercial aircraft leasing market and would negatively affect our financial condition, cash flow and results of operations ” and “An increase in our borrowing costs would negatively affect our financial condition, cash flow and results of operations” under “Risk Factors - Risks Relating to our Business” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

5.6      If the training is based at Boeing’s facility and the Aircraft is damaged during such training, Boeing will make all necessary repairs to the Aircraft as promptly as possible.  Customer will pay Boeing’s reasonable charge, including the price of parts and materials, for making the repairs.  If Boeing’s estimated labor charge for the repair exceeds Twenty-five Thousand U.S. Dollars ($25,000), Boeing and Customer will enter into an agreement for additional services before beginning the repair work.

5.7      If the flight training is based at Boeing’s facility, several airports in the surrounding area may be used, at Boeing’s option.  Unless otherwise agreed in the flight training planning conference, it will be Customer’s responsibility to make arrangements for the use of such airports.

5.8      If Boeing agrees to make arrangements on behalf of Customer for the use of airports for flight training, Boeing will pay on Customer’s behalf any landing fees charged by any airport used in conjunction with the flight training.  At least thirty (30) days before flight training, Customer will provide Boeing an open purchase order against which Boeing will invoice Customer for any landing fees Boeing paid on Customer’s behalf.  The invoice will be submitted to Customer approximately sixty (60) days after flight training is completed, when all landing fee charges have been received and verified.  Customer will pay the invoiced amount to Boeing within thirty (30) days of the date of the invoice.

5.9      If requested by Boeing, in order to provide the flight training or ferry flight assistance, Customer will make available to Boeing an Aircraft after delivery to familiarize Boeing instructor or ferry flight crew personnel with such Aircraft.  If flight of the Aircraft is required for any Boeing instructor or ferry flight crew member to maintain an FAA license for flight proficiency or landing currency, Boeing will be responsible for the costs of fuel, oil, landing fees and spare parts attributable to that portion of the flight.

EXHIBIT 10.5

INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

This Indemnification Agreement (“Agreement”) is made as of [_____], 20[__] by and between Air Lease Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and [_____] (“Indemnitee”). This Agreement supersedes and replaces any and all previous Agreements between the Company and Indemnitee covering the subject matter of this Agreement.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, highly competent persons have become more reluctant to serve publicly-held corporations as directors, officers or in other capacities unless they are provided with adequate protection through insurance or adequate indemnification against inordinate risks of claims and actions against them arising out of their service to and activities on behalf of the corporation;

WHEREAS, Indemnitee may be entitled to indemnification pursuant to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (the “DGCL”) and the DGCL expressly provides that the indemnification provisions set forth therein are not exclusive, and thereby contemplate that contracts may be entered into between the Company and members of the board of directors, officers and other persons with respect to indemnification;

WHEREAS, the Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company (the “Bylaws”) and the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (the “Certificate of Incorporation” and, together with the Bylaws, the “Organizational Documents”) require indemnification of the officers and directors of the Company to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL;

WHEREAS, in order to attract and retain qualified individuals, the Company maintains on an ongoing basis, at its sole expense, liability insurance to protect persons serving the Company and its subsidiaries from certain liabilities;

WHEREAS, the furnishing of such insurance has been a customary and widespread practice among United States-based corporations and other business enterprises, the Company believes that, given current market conditions and trends, such insurance may be available to it in the future only at higher premiums and with more exclusions, while at the same time, directors, officers, and other persons in service to corporations or business enterprises are being increasingly subjected to expensive and time-consuming litigation relating to, among other things, matters that traditionally would have been brought only against the Company or business enterprise itself;

WHEREAS, the uncertainties relating to such insurance and to indemnification may increase the difficulty of attracting and retaining such person;

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) has determined that the increased difficulty in attracting and retaining such persons is detrimental to the best interests of the Company and its stockholders and that the Company should act to assure such persons that there will be increased certainty of such protection in the future;

WHEREAS, the Organizational Documents and the DGCL expressly provide that the indemnification provisions set forth therein are not exclusive, and thereby contemplate that contracts may be entered into between the Company and members of the board of directors, officers and other persons with respect to indemnification;

WHEREAS, it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company contractually to obligate itself to indemnify, and to advance expenses on behalf of, such persons to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law so that they will serve or continue to serve the Company free from undue concern that they will not be so indemnified; and

WHEREAS, this Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of the Organizational Documents and any resolutions adopted pursuant thereto, as well as any rights of Indemnitee under any directors’ and officers’ liability

insurance policy, and this Agreement shall not be deemed a substitute therefor, nor to diminish or abrogate any rights of Indemnitee thereunder;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants contained herein, the Company and Indemnitee do hereby covenant and agree as follows:

Section 1. Services to the Company. Indemnitee agrees to serve as an [officer/director] of the Company, at the request of the Company. Indemnitee may at any time and for any reason resign from such position (subject to any other contractual obligation or any obligation imposed by operation of law), in which event the Company shall have no obligation under this Agreement to continue Indemnitee in such position. This Agreement shall not be deemed an employment contract between the Company (or any of its subsidiaries or any Enterprise) and Indemnitee. Indemnitee specifically acknowledges that Indemnitee’s employment with the Company (or any of its subsidiaries or any Enterprise), if any, is at will, and the Indemnitee may be discharged at any time for any reason, with or without cause, except as may be otherwise provided in any existing or future written employment contract between Indemnitee and the Company (or any of its subsidiaries or any Enterprise), other applicable formal severance policies duly adopted by the Board, or, with respect to service as an [officer/director] of the Company, by the Organizational Documents and the DGCL. The foregoing notwithstanding, this Agreement shall continue in force after Indemnitee has ceased to serve as an [officer/director] of the Company, as provided in Section 16 hereof.

Section 2. Definitions. As used in this Agreement:

(a)    References to “agent” shall mean any person who is or was a director, officer, or employee of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company or other person authorized by the Company to act for the Company, to include such person serving in such capacity as a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or other official of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise at the request of, for the convenience of, or to represent the interests of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company.

(b)    A “Change in Control” shall be deemed to occur upon the earliest to occur after the date of this Agreement of any of the following events:

i.     Acquisition of Stock by Third Party.  The acquisition by any Person or Group of Beneficial Ownership of 35% or more (on a fully diluted basis) of either (A) the then outstanding shares of all classes of common stock of the Company, taking into account as outstanding for this purpose such common stock issuable upon the exercise of options or warrants, the conversion of convertible stock or debt, and the exercise or settlement of any similar right to acquire such common stock (the “Outstanding Company Common Stock”), or (B) the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the “Outstanding Company Voting Securities”); provided, however, that for purposes of this Agreement, the following acquisitions shall not constitute a Change in Control: (I) any acquisition by the Company or any Affiliate, (II) any acquisition directly from the Company, (III) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan sponsored or maintained by the Company or any Affiliate or (IV) any acquisition by any Person pursuant to a transaction that complies with clauses (A), (B) and (C) of subsection (iv) of this Section 2(b);

The parties agree that for the purposes of any advancement of Expenses for which Indemnitee has made written demand to the Company in accordance with this Agreement, all Expenses included in such demand that are certified by affidavit of Indemnitee’s counsel as being reasonable in the good faith judgment of such counsel shall be presumed conclusively to be reasonable.

3

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term “Independent Counsel” shall not include any person who, under the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing, would have a conflict of interest in representing either the Company or Indemnitee in an action to determine Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement. The Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of the Independent Counsel referred to above and to fully indemnify such counsel against any and all Expenses, claims, liabilities and damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement or its engagement pursuant hereto.

(i)    Reference to “other enterprise” shall include employee benefit plans; references to “fines” shall include any excise tax assessed with respect to any employee benefit plan; references to “serving at the request of the Company” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Company” as referred to in this Agreement.

Section 3. Indemnity in Third-Party Proceedings. The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3 if Indemnitee is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or a participant in any Proceeding, other than a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor, by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status. Pursuant to this Section 3, Indemnitee shall be indemnified to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law against all Expenses, judgments, fines and, subject to Section 11(c), amounts paid in settlement (including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of such Expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf in connection with such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company and, in the case of a criminal Proceeding had no reasonable cause to believe that Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful. The parties hereto intend that this Agreement shall provide to the fullest extent permitted by law for indemnification in excess of that expressly permitted by statute, including, without limitation, any indemnification provided by the Organizational Documents, vote of the Company’s stockholders or disinterested directors or applicable law.

Section 4. Indemnity in Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company. The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4 if Indemnitee is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or a participant in any Proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status. Pursuant to this Section 4, Indemnitee shall be indemnified to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf in connection with such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company. No indemnification for Expenses shall be made under this Section 4 in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which Indemnitee shall have been finally adjudged by a court to be liable to the Company, unless and only to the extent that the Delaware Court (as hereinafter defined) or any court in which the Proceeding was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification.

4

Section 5. Indemnification for Expenses of a Party Who is Wholly or Partly Successful. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and to the extent that Indemnitee is a party to (or a participant in) and is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in any Proceeding or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, in whole or in part, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection therewith. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding but is successful, on the merits or otherwise, as to one or more but less than all claims, issues or matters in such Proceeding, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf in connection with or related to each successfully resolved claim, issue or matter to the fullest extent permitted by law. For purposes of this Section and without limitation, the termination of any claim, issue or matter in such a Proceeding by dismissal, with or without prejudice, shall be deemed to be a successful result as to such claim, issue or matter.

Section 6. Indemnification For Expenses of a Witness. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status, a witness, is or was made (or asked) to respond to discovery requests or otherwise asked to participate in any Proceeding to which Indemnitee is not a party, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf in connection therewith.

Section 7. Partial Indemnification. If Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some or a portion of Expenses, but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion thereof to which Indemnitee is entitled.

 

Section 8. Additional Indemnification.

(a)    Notwithstanding any limitation in Sections 3, 4, or 5, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law if Indemnitee is a party to, or is threatened to be made a party to, or a participant in any Proceeding (including a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor) by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status.

(b)    For purposes of Section 8(a), the meaning of the phrase “to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law” shall include, but not be limited to:

i.    to the fullest extent permitted by the provision of the DGCL that authorizes or contemplates additional indemnification by agreement, or the corresponding provision of any amendment to or replacement of the DGCL, and

ii.    to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by any amendments to or replacements of the DGCL adopted after the date of this Agreement that increase the extent to which a corporation may indemnify its officers and directors.

Section 9. Exclusions. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated under this Agreement to make any indemnification payment in connection with any claim involving Indemnitee:

(a)    for which payment has actually been made to or on behalf of Indemnitee under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision, except with respect to any excess beyond the amount paid under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision; or

(b)    for (i) an accounting of profits made from the purchase and sale (or sale and purchase) by Indemnitee of securities of the Company within the meaning of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act (as defined in Section 2(b) hereof) or similar provisions of state statutory law or common law, (ii) any reimbursement of the Company by the Indemnitee of any bonus or other incentive-based or equity-based compensation or of any profits realized by the Indemnitee from the sale of securities of the Company, as required in each case under the Exchange Act (including any such reimbursements that arise from an accounting restatement of the Company pursuant to Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), or the payment to the Company of profits arising from the purchase and sale by Indemnitee of securities in violation of Section 306 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act), or (iii) any reimbursement of the Company by Indemnitee of any compensation pursuant to any compensation recoupment or clawback policy that may be adopted by the Board or a committee of the Board; or

(c)    except as provided in Section 14(d) of this Agreement, in connection with any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) initiated by Indemnitee, including any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) initiated by Indemnitee against the Company or its directors, officers, employees or other indemnitees, unless (i) the Board

5

authorized the Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) prior to its initiation, or (ii) such payment arises in connection with any mandatory counterclaim or cross-claim brought or raised by Indemnitee in any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) or (iii) the Company provides the indemnification, in its sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in the Company under applicable law.

 

Section 10. Advances of Expenses. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary (other than Section 14(d)), the Company shall advance, to the extent not prohibited by law, the Expenses incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) not initiated by Indemnitee or any Proceeding initiated by Indemnitee with the prior approval of the Board as provided in Section 9(c), and such advancement shall be made as soon as possible but in any event no later than twenty (20) days after the receipt by the Company of a statement or statements requesting such advances from time to time, whether prior to or after final disposition of any Proceeding. Advances shall be unsecured and interest free. The Company shall, in accordance with such request for advancement (but without duplication), either (i) pay such Expenses on behalf of Indemnitee, or (ii) reimburse Indemnitee for such Expenses. Advances shall be made without regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay the Expenses and without regard to Indemnitee’s ultimate entitlement to indemnification under the other provisions of this Agreement. In accordance with Section 14(d), advances shall include any and all reasonable Expenses incurred pursuing an action to enforce this right of advancement, including Expenses incurred preparing and forwarding statements to the Company to support the advances claimed. The Indemnitee shall qualify for advances upon the execution and delivery to the Company of this Agreement, which shall constitute an undertaking providing that the Indemnitee undertakes to repay the amounts advanced (without interest) by the Company pursuant to this Section 10, if and only to the extent that it is ultimately determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company. No other form of undertaking shall be required other than the execution of this Agreement. This Section 10 shall not apply to any claim made by Indemnitee for which indemnity is excluded pursuant to Section 9.

Section 11. Procedure for Notification and Defense of Claim.

(a)    Indemnitee shall notify the Company in writing of any matter with respect to which Indemnitee intends to seek indemnification or advancement of Expenses hereunder as soon as reasonably practicable following the receipt by Indemnitee of written notice thereof. The written notification to the Company shall include a description of the nature of the Proceeding and the facts underlying the Proceeding. To obtain indemnification under this Agreement, Indemnitee shall submit to the Company a written request, including therein or therewith such documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification following the final disposition of such Proceeding. The omission by Indemnitee to notify the Company hereunder will not relieve the Company from any liability which it may have to Indemnitee hereunder or otherwise than under this Agreement, and any delay in so notifying the Company shall not constitute a waiver by Indemnitee of any rights under this Agreement. The Secretary of the Company shall, promptly upon receipt of such a request for indemnification, advise the Board in writing that Indemnitee has requested indemnification. In addition, Indemnitee shall give the Company such information and cooperation as it may reasonably require and as shall be within Indemnitee’s power, to the extent that doing so is consistent with the exercise of the Indemnitee’s rights under the federal and state Constitutions. The Company shall provide Indemnitee with such information and cooperation as Indemnitee may reasonably require, to the extent that doing so is consistent with the Company’s obligation to cooperate with regulatory or law enforcement agencies.

 

(b)    The Company shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Proceeding entitled to indemnification under this Agreement or to assume the defense thereof, with counsel chosen by the Company and reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee (not to be unreasonably withheld) upon delivery to Indemnitee of written notice of the Company’s election to do so; providedhowever, that if Indemnitee believes, after consultation with counsel selected by Indemnitee, that (i) the use of counsel chosen by the Company to represent Indemnitee would present such counsel with an actual or potential conflict of interest, (ii) the named parties in such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Company and Indemnitee and the Indemnitee concludes that there may be one or more legal defense available to him that are different from or in addition to those available to the Company, or (iii) any such representation by such counsel would be precluded under the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing, then Indemnitee shall be entitled to retain separate counsel that is selected by Indemnitee and approved by the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld) (but not more than one law firm plus, if applicable, local counsel in respect of any particular Proceeding), and all Expenses related to such separate counsel shall be borne by the Company.

6

(c)    The Company shall not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement for any amounts paid in settlement of any threatened or pending Proceeding pursuant to which the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification and that is effected without the Company’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that if a Change in Control has occurred, the Company shall be liable for indemnification of the Indemnitee for amounts paid in settlement if an Independent Counsel has approved the settlement. The Company shall not settle any Proceeding pursuant to which the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification in any manner that would impose any Expenses, claims, liabilities and/or damages on the Indemnitee without the Indemnitee’s prior written consent.

Section 12. Procedure Upon Application for Indemnification.

(a)    Upon written request by Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to Section 11(a), a determination, if required by applicable law, with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement thereto shall be made in the specific case: (i) if a Change in Control shall have occurred, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee; or (ii) if a Change in Control shall not have occurred, (A) by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Board, (B) by a committee of Disinterested Directors designated by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Board, (C) if there are no such Disinterested Directors or, if such Disinterested Directors so direct, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee or (D) if so directed by the Board, the common stockholders of the Company by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the Company’s outstanding common stock, present in person or represented by proxy; and, if it is so determined that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, payment to Indemnitee shall be made within ten (10) days after such determination. Indemnitee shall cooperate with the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any costs or Expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons or entity making such determination shall be borne by the Company (irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification) and the Company hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom. The Company promptly will advise Indemnitee in writing with respect to any determination that Indemnitee is or is not entitled to indemnification, including a description of any reason or basis for which indemnification has been denied.

(b)    In the event the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 12(a) hereof, the Independent Counsel shall be selected as provided in this Section 12(b). If a Change in Control shall not have occurred, the Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Board, and the Company shall give written notice to Indemnitee advising Indemnitee of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. If a Change in Control shall have occurred, the Independent Counsel shall be selected by Indemnitee (unless Indemnitee shall request that such selection be made by the Board, in which event the preceding sentence shall apply), and Indemnitee shall give written notice to the Company advising it of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. In either event, Indemnitee or the Company, as the case may be,  may, within ten (10) days after such written notice of selection shall have been given, deliver to the Company or to Indemnitee, as the case may be, a written objection to such selection; providedhowever, that such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not meet the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 2 of this Agreement, and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion. Absent a proper and timely objection, the person so selected shall act as Independent Counsel. If such written objection is so made and substantiated, the Independent Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until such objection is withdrawn or the Delaware Court has determined that such objection is without merit. If, within twenty (20) days after the later of submission by Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 11(a) hereof and the final disposition of the Proceeding, no Independent Counsel shall have been selected and not objected to, either the Company or Indemnitee may petition the Delaware Court for resolution of any objection which shall have been made by the Company or Indemnitee to the other’s selection of Independent Counsel and/or for the appointment as Independent Counsel of a person selected by such court or by such other person as such court shall designate, and the person with respect to whom all objections are so resolved or the person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under Section 12(a) hereof. Upon the due commencement of any judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to Section 14(a) of this Agreement, Independent Counsel shall be discharged and relieved of any further responsibility in such capacity (subject to the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing).

7

(c)If the Company disputes a portion of the amounts for which indemnification is requested, the undisputed portion shall be paid and only the disputed portion withheld pending resolution of any such dispute.

Section 13. Presumptions and Effect of Certain Proceedings.

(a)    In making a determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the person or persons or entity making such determination shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, presume that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement if Indemnitee has submitted a request for indemnification in accordance with Section 11(a) of this Agreement, and the Company shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, have the burden of proof to overcome that presumption in connection with the making by any person, persons or entity of any determination contrary to that presumption. Neither the failure of the Company (including by its directors or Independent Counsel) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of any action pursuant to this Agreement that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the Company (including by its directors or Independent Counsel) that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct.

(b)    Subject to Section 14(e), if the person, persons or entity empowered or selected under Section 12 of this Agreement to determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification shall not have made a determination within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Company of the request therefor, the requisite determination of entitlement to indemnification shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, be deemed to have been made and Indemnitee shall be entitled to such indemnification, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law; provided, however, that such 60-day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed an additional thirty (30) days, if the person, persons or entity making the determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification in good faith requires such additional time for the obtaining or evaluating of documentation and/or information relating thereto; and provided, further, that the foregoing provisions of this Section 13(b) shall not apply (i) if the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by the stockholders pursuant to Section 12(a) of this Agreement and if (A) within fifteen (15) days after receipt by the Company of the request for such determination the Board has resolved to submit such determination to the stockholders for their consideration at an annual meeting thereof to be held within seventy-five (75) days after such receipt and such determination is made thereat, or (B) a special meeting of stockholders is called within fifteen (15) days after such receipt for the purpose of making such determination, such meeting is held for such purpose within sixty (60) days after having been so called and such determination is made thereat, or (ii) if the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 12(a) of this Agreement.

(c)    The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement) of itself adversely affect the right of Indemnitee to indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful.

(d)    For purposes of any determination of good faith, Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in good faith if Indemnitee’s action is based on the records or books of account of the Enterprise, including financial statements, or on information supplied to Indemnitee by the directors or officers of the Enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser, financial advisor or other expert selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Enterprise. The provisions of this Section 13(d) shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the other circumstances in which the Indemnitee may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in this Agreement.

(e)    The knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of any director, officer, trustee, partner, managing member, fiduciary, agent or employee of the Enterprise shall not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right to indemnification under this Agreement.

Section 14. Remedies of Indemnitee.

 

(a)    Subject to Section 14(e), in the event that (i) a determination is made pursuant to Section 12 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, (ii) advancement of Expenses is not timely made pursuant to Section 10 of this Agreement, (iii) no determination of entitlement to indemnification shall have been made pursuant to Section 12(a) of this Agreement within ninety (90) days after receipt by the Company of the request for indemnification, (iv) payment of indemnification is not made pursuant to Section 5, 6 or 7 or the penultimate sentence of Section 12(a) of this Agreement within ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefor, (v) payment of indemnification pursuant to Section 3, 4 or 8 of this Agreement is not made within ten (10) days after a determination has been made that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, or (vi) the Company or any other person takes or threatens to take any action to declare this Agreement void or unenforceable, or institutes any litigation or other action or Proceeding designed to deny, or to recover from, the Indemnitee the benefits provided or intended to be provided to the Indemnitee hereunder, Indemnitee shall be entitled to an adjudication by a court of Indemnitee’s entitlement to such indemnification or advancement of Expenses. Alternatively, Indemnitee, at Indemnitee’s option, may seek an award in arbitration to be conducted by a single arbitrator pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. Indemnitee shall commence such proceeding seeking an adjudication or an award in arbitration within 180 days following the date on which Indemnitee first has the right to commence such proceeding pursuant to this Section 14(a); The Company shall not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seek any such adjudication or award in arbitration.

(b)    In the event that a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 12(a) of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14 shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial, or arbitration, on the merits and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of that adverse determination. In any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14 the Company shall have the burden of proving Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification or advancement of Expenses, as the case may be.

(c)    If a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 12(a) of this Agreement that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, the Company shall be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law.

(d)    The Company shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, be precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14 that the procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court or before any such arbitrator that the Company is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement. It is the intent of the Company that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Indemnitee not be required to incur legal fees or other Expenses associated with the interpretation, enforcement or defense of Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement by litigation or otherwise because the cost and expense thereof would substantially detract from the benefits intended to be extended to the Indemnitee hereunder. The Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify Indemnitee against any and all Expenses and, if requested by Indemnitee, shall (within ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefor) advance, to the extent not prohibited by law, such Expenses to Indemnitee, which are incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with any action brought by Indemnitee for indemnification or advancement of Expenses from the Company under this Agreement or under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company if, in the case of indemnification, Indemnitee is wholly successful on the underlying claims; if Indemnitee is not wholly successful on the underlying claims, then such indemnification shall be only to the extent Indemnitee is successful on such underlying claims or otherwise as permitted by law, whichever is greater.

(e)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no determination as to entitlement of Indemnitee to indemnification under this Agreement shall be required to be made prior to the final disposition of the Proceeding.

Section 15. Non-exclusivity; Survival of Rights; Insurance; Subrogation.

(a)    The rights of indemnification and to receive advancement of Expenses as provided by this Agreement (i) shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under applicable law, the Organizational Documents, any agreement, a vote of stockholders or a resolution of directors, or otherwise and (ii) shall be interpreted independently of, and without reference to, any other such rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled. No amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement or of any provision hereof shall limit or restrict any right of Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect of any action taken or omitted by

9

Indemnitee in Indemnitee’s Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal. To the extent that a change in Delaware law, whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification or advancement of Expenses than would be afforded currently under the Organizational Documents and this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties hereto that Indemnitee shall enjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits so afforded by such change. No right or remedy herein conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other right or remedy.

(b)    To the extent that the Company maintains an insurance policy or policies providing liability insurance for directors, officers, employees, or agents of the Enterprise, Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or their terms to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any such director, officer, employee or agent under such policy or policies. If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of a claim pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company has director and officer liability insurance in effect, the Company shall give prompt notice of such claim or of the commencement of a Proceeding, as the case may be, to the insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies. The Company shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of the Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such Proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies.

(c)    In the event of any payment made by the Company under this Agreement, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and take all action necessary to secure such rights, including execution of such documents as are necessary to enable the Company to bring suit to enforce such rights.

(d)    The Company shall not be liable under this Agreement to make any payment of amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder (or for which advancement is provided hereunder) if and to the extent that Indemnitee has otherwise actually received such payment under any insurance policy, contract, agreement or otherwise.

(e)    The Company’s obligation to indemnify or advance Expenses hereunder to Indemnitee who is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, trustee, partner, managing member, fiduciary, employee or agent of any other corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise shall be reduced by any amount Indemnitee has actually received as indemnification or advancement of Expenses from such other corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise.

 

Section 16. Duration of Agreement. This Agreement shall continue until and terminate upon the later of: (a) ten (10) years after the date that Indemnitee shall have ceased to serve as an officer and director of the Company and of any other corporation, limited liability company, partnership or joint venture, trust or other enterprise which such person is or was serving at the request of the Company, or (b) one (1) year after the final termination of any Proceeding then pending in respect of which Indemnitee is granted rights of indemnification or advancement of Expenses hereunder and of any proceeding (including any appeal thereof) commenced by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 14 of this Agreement relating thereto. The indemnification and advancement of expenses rights provided by or granted pursuant to this Agreement shall be binding upon and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns (including any direct or indirect successor by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company), shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or of any other Enterprise, and shall inure to the benefit of Indemnitee and Indemnitee’s spouse, assigns, heirs, devisees, executors and administrators and other legal representatives. The Company shall require and shall cause any successor (whether direct or indirect by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company to, by written agreement, expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place.

Section 17. Severability. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to require or shall be construed as requiring the Company to do or fail to do any act in violation of applicable law. If any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever: (a) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement (including without limitation, each portion of any Section of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall remain enforceable to the

10

fullest extent permitted by law; (b) such provision or provisions shall be deemed reformed to the extent necessary to conform to applicable law and to give the maximum effect to the intent of the parties hereto; and (c) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, each portion of any Section of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested thereby.

 

Section 18. Enforcement.

(a)    The Company expressly confirms and agrees that it has entered into this Agreement and assumed the obligations imposed on it hereby in order to induce Indemnitee to serve as a director or officer of the Company, and the Company acknowledges that Indemnitee is relying upon this Agreement in serving as a director or officer of the Company or of any other corporation, limited liability company, partnership or joint venture, trust or other enterprise which such person is serving at the request of the Company.

(b)    This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral, written and implied, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided, however, that this Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of the Organizational Documents, any directors’ and officers’ insurance maintained by the company and applicable law, and shall not be deemed a substitute therefor, nor to diminish or abrogate any rights of Indemnitee thereunder.

Section 19. Section 409A. If Indemnitee’s right to payment or reimbursement of indemnification or expenses pursuant to this Agreement would not be exempt from Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.0409A-1(b)(10), then (a) the payment or reimbursement of indemnification and expenses provided or advanced to or for Indemnitee pursuant to this Agreement in one taxable year shall not affect the amount of indemnification and expenses provided or advanced to or for Indemnitee in any other taxable year, (b) any reimbursement to Indemnitee of expenses under this Agreement shall be paid to Indemnitee on or before the last day of Indemnitee’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred and (c) the right to advancement, reimbursement or payment of indemnification and expenses under this Agreement may not be liquidated or exchanged for any other benefit. In addition, to the extent that this Agreement is subject to Section 409A of the Code, this Agreement shall be interpreted and enforced so as to avoid any tax, penalty or interest under Section 409A of the Code. For purposes of this Section 19, expenses shall be deemed to include in addition to those items included in the definition thereof in Section 2, any liability, loss, judgment, fine and amounts paid in settlement.

Section 20. Modification and Waiver. No supplement, modification or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by the parties hereto. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions of this Agreement nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver.

Section 21. Notice by Indemnitee. Indemnitee agrees promptly to notify the Company in writing upon being served with any summons, citation, subpoena, complaint, indictment, information or other document relating to any Proceeding or matter which may be subject to indemnification or advancement of Expenses covered hereunder. The failure of Indemnitee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of any obligation which it may have to the Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise.

Section 22. Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if (a) delivered by hand and receipted for by the party to whom said notice or other communication shall have been directed, (b) mailed by certified or registered mail with postage prepaid, on the third business day after the date on which it is so mailed or (c) mailed by reputable overnight courier and receipted for by the party to whom said notice or other communication shall have been directed:

(a)    If to Indemnitee, at the address indicated on the signature page of this Agreement, or such other address as Indemnitee shall provide to the Company.

or to any other address as may have been furnished to Indemnitee by the Company.

Section 23. Contribution. To the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, if the indemnification provided for in this Agreement is unavailable to Indemnitee for any reason whatsoever, the Company, in lieu of indemnifying Indemnitee, shall contribute to the amount incurred by Indemnitee, whether for judgments, fines, penalties, excise taxes, amounts paid or to be paid in settlement and/or for Expenses, in connection with any claim relating to an indemnifiable event under this Agreement, in such proportion as is deemed fair and reasonable in light of all of the circumstances of such Proceeding in order to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the Company and Indemnitee as a result of the event(s) and/or transaction(s) giving cause to such Proceeding; and/or (ii) the relative fault of the Company (and its directors, officers, employees and agents) and Indemnitee in connection with such event(s) and/or transaction(s).

Section 24. Applicable Law and Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement and the legal relations among the parties shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Except with respect to any arbitration commenced by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 14(a) of this Agreement, the Company and Indemnitee hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agree that any action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be brought only in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Court”), and not in any other state or federal court in the United States of America or any court in any other country, (ii) consent to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Court for purposes of any action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, (iii) appoint, to the extent such party is not otherwise subject to service of process in the State of Delaware, irrevocably Corporation Service Company, 2711 Centerville Road, Suite 400, Wilmington, New Castle County, Delaware 19808 as its agent in the State of Delaware as such party’s agent for acceptance of legal process in connection with any such action or proceeding against such party with the same legal force and validity as if served upon such party personally within the State of Delaware, (iv) waive any objection to the laying of venue of any such action or proceeding in the Delaware Court, and (v) waive, and agree not to plead or to make, any claim that any such action or proceeding brought in the Delaware Court has been brought in an improper or inconvenient forum.

Section 25. Identical Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. Only one such counterpart signed by the party against whom enforceability is sought needs to be produced to evidence the existence of this Agreement.

Section 26. Miscellaneous. Use of the masculine pronoun shall be deemed to include usage of the feminine pronoun where appropriate. The headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute part of this Agreement or to affect the construction thereof

CERTIFICATION OF THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND PRESIDENT
PURSUANT TO SECTION 302 OF THE SARBANES-OXLEY ACT OF 2002

 

I, John L. Plueger, certify that:

 

1. I have reviewed this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of Air Lease Corporation;

 

2. Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;

 

3. Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial information included in this report, fairly present in all material respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this report;

 

4. The registrant’s other certifying officer and I are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) and internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)), for the registrant and have:

 

a) Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this report is being prepared;

 

b) Designed such internal control over financial reporting, or caused such internal control over financial reporting to be designed under our supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles;

5. The registrant’s other certifying officer and I have disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to the registrant’s auditors and the audit committee of the registrant’s board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions):
