AMENDED AND RESTATED SERVICING AGREEMENT (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof, the “Agreement” or the “Servicing Agreement”) dated as of March 3, 2020, among WILLIS ENGINE STRUCTURED TRUST V (formerly known as Willis Engine Securitization Trust II), a Delaware statutory trust (“WEST”), WILLIS LEASE FINANCE CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation incorporated under the laws of Delaware, in its capacity as Servicer (together with its successors and permitted assigns, the “Servicer”) and as the Administrative Agent, and each member of the Serviced Group from time to time party hereto.
WHEREAS, WEST, the Servicer and other members of the Serviced Group set forth on the signature pages hereto entered into a servicing agreement, dated as of September 17, 2012, pursuant to which the Serviced Group appointed the Servicer, and the Servicer accepted such appointment (as amended, supplemented and otherwise modified from time to time prior to the date hereof, the “Original Servicing Agreement”);
WHEREAS, in connection with the issuance of the Notes on the date hereof under the Indenture, by this Agreement, the parties hereto desire to amend and restate the Original Servicing Agreement in its entirety as set forth herein;
NOW, THEREFORE, for the consideration set forth herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, each of the parties hereto, and each Person that becomes a party hereto pursuant to a Serviced Group Member Supplement, hereby agrees as follows:
ARTICLE 1
DEFINITIONS
SECTION 1.01.    Definitions. The terms used herein have the meaning assigned to them in Appendix A hereto. Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Indenture.
ARTICLE 2

APPOINTMENT; SERVICES
SECTION 2.01.    Appointment.
(a)    Each Person within the Serviced Group hereby appoints the Servicer as the exclusive provider of the Services (as defined in Section 2.02(a) below) to each such Person in respect of the Assets on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.
(b)    The Servicer hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to perform the Services on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. In connection with the provision of the Services with respect to the Assets, the Servicer generally shall, where and to the extent practicable and in the case of Services that are not performed by the Servicer directly, contract for or otherwise obtain goods and services from third party providers in the name of, or

as disclosed agent for, the relevant Person within the Serviced Group. If the Servicer shall not have contracted for or otherwise obtained such goods and services in the name of, or as disclosed agent for, the relevant Person within the Serviced Group, the Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to cause WEST or such Subsidiary to be in a position to have direct recourse against any such third party provider providing goods and services for WEST or such Subsidiary for any breaches by such third party provider related to the provision of such goods and services.
(c)    WEST hereby warrants and represents to the Servicer that it and each Subsidiary has appointed or will appoint the Administrative Agent to act as its representative with respect to any matter in respect of which any Person within the Serviced Group is required or permitted to take any action pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Accordingly, in connection with the performance of the Services, unless an Administrative Agent Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or unless earlier notified by WEST that the appointment of the Administrative Agent to act on behalf of each Person within the Serviced Group has not become effective or has been revoked or terminated, the Servicer shall in all cases be entitled to rely on the instructions (or other actions) of the Administrative Agent as representative of each Person within the Serviced Group other than the actions specified in Section 7.06(a)(i) and 7.06(a)(iv).
SECTION 2.02.    Services.
(a)    The services to be provided by the Servicer in respect of the Assets (the “Services”) are as set forth in Schedule 2.02(a) and under this Agreement.
(b)    Except with respect to the obligations expressly provided herein, in connection with the performance of the Services, the Servicer shall in all cases only be obligated to act upon, and shall be entitled to rely on, the instructions of WEST or, as provided above in Section 2.01(c), the Administrative Agent, on behalf of each Person within the Serviced Group. The Servicer shall not be liable to WEST, any Subsidiary, the Indenture Trustee or any other Person for any act or omission to act taken in accordance with such instructions, except to the extent provided in Section 3.03.
SECTION 2.03.    Limitations.
(a)    Neither the Servicer nor any of its Affiliates (other than each Person within the Serviced Group) shall assume any WEST Liabilities. In connection with the performance of the Services and its other obligations hereunder, the Servicer shall not be obligated to take or refrain from taking any action which is reasonably likely to (A) violate any Applicable Law, (B) lead to an investigation by any Governmental Authority or (C) expose the Servicer to any liabilities for which, in the Servicer’s good faith opinion, adequate bond or indemnity has not been provided.
(b)    Each Person within the Serviced Group shall at all times retain full legal and equitable title to the Assets, notwithstanding the management thereof by the Servicer hereunder.

LIABILITY

The Servicer shall perform the Services with reasonable care and diligence at all times as is customary in the engine operating leasing industry and, for so long as there are any Assets that are Airframes, the aircraft operating leasing industry, as if it were the owner of each such Engine or Airframe, as applicable (the “Standard of Care”). The Standard of Care shall be implemented in a manner which is consistent with the reasonable commercial practices of leading international Aircraft Engine operating lessors and, for so long as there is any Asset that that is an Airframe, leading international aircraft operating lessors, and is consistent with the Indenture.
SECTION 3.02.    Conflicts of Interest.
(a)    Each Person within the Serviced Group acknowledges and agrees that (i) in addition to managing the Assets under this Agreement, the Servicer may manage, and shall be entitled to manage, from time to time, the separate assets owned by it or its Affiliates (other than each Person within the Serviced Group) and third parties (“Other Assets”); (ii) in addition to the management of the Assets and the Other Assets, the Servicer shall, and shall be entitled to, carry on its commercial businesses, including the financing, purchase or other acquisition, leasing and sale of Other Assets; (iii) in the course of conducting such activities, the Servicer may from time to time have conflicts of interest in performing its duties on behalf of the various entities to whom it provides management services and with respect to the various assets in respect of which it provides management services; and (iv) the Controlling Trustees of WEST have approved the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and desire that such transactions be consummated and, in giving such approval, the Controlling Trustees of WEST have expressly recognized that such conflicts of interest may arise and that when such conflicts of interest arise the Servicer shall perform the Services in accordance with the Standard of Care and the Servicer Conflicts Standard set forth below in Section 3.02(b)
(b)    If conflicts of interest arise regarding the management or remarketing of any Asset, on the one hand, and any Other Asset, on the other hand, the Servicer shall promptly notify WEST and the Indenture Trustee (but in no later than the date on which the next Monthly Report is delivered). The Servicer shall perform the Services in good faith and to the extent such Asset and such Other Asset are substantially similar in terms of objectively identifiable characteristics relevant for purposes of the particular Services to be performed, the Servicer shall not discriminate between such Asset and such Other Asset on an unreasonable basis (the standard set forth in this Section 3.02(b) shall be referred to collectively as the “Servicer Conflicts Standard”).
SECTION 3.03.    Standard of Liability. The Servicer shall not be liable to any Person within the Serviced Group for any Losses arising (i) as a result of an Asset being sold, leased or purchased on less favorable terms than might have been achieved at any time, provided such transactions were entered into on the basis of an arm’s-length commercial decision of the

Servicer, or (ii) in respect of the Servicer’s obligation to apply the Servicer Conflicts Standard in respect of its performance of the Services, except, in either case, in the case of willful misconduct, negligence or fraud on the part of the Servicer. The Servicer shall not be liable to any Person within the Serviced Group for any Loss arising as a result of the performance of any of the Servicer’s obligations as Servicer or as a result of any action which the Servicer is requested to take or refrain from taking by WEST (or the Administrative Agent), unless (A) such Loss has arisen as a result of the willful misconduct, negligence or fraud of the Servicer, (B) such Loss has directly resulted from a breach by the Servicer of the express terms and conditions of this Agreement or (C) such Loss is a Loss for which the Servicer has indemnified WEST and its Affiliates and arises as a result of any material misstatements or omissions in any public filing or offering memorandum relating to information on the Assets, the Servicer and the Services provided by the Servicer for disclosure in such public filing or offering memorandum, provided that the Servicer may reasonably rely on information from third parties without incurring liability (the liability standards set forth in this Section 3.03, the “Standard of Liability”).
SECTION 3.04.    Waiver of Implied Standard. Except as expressly stated above in this Article 3, all other warranties, conditions and representations, express or implied, statutory or otherwise, arising under Delaware or New York law or any other Applicable Law in relation to either the skill, care, diligence or otherwise in respect of any Service to be performed hereunder or to the quality or fitness for any particular purpose of any goods are hereby to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law excluded and the Servicer shall not be liable in contract, tort or otherwise under Delaware or New York law or any other Applicable Law for any Loss arising out of or in connection with the Services to be supplied pursuant to this Agreement or any goods to be provided or sold in conjunction with such Services.
ARTICLE 4

SECTION 7.02.    Instructions by WEST. WEST may at any time, other than following the delivery of a Default Notice pursuant to Section 4.02 of the Indenture (that has not been withdrawn or rescinded), in which case the Indenture Trustee may, direct the Servicer to limit or terminate any action being taken by it under this Agreement or to take any action authorized or contemplated by this Agreement (including sale or disposal of any Asset) or the applicable Lease and the Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with such directions.

SECTION 7.04.    Overall Business Objectives with Respect to Asset.

SECTION 7.05.    Operating Budget; Asset Expenses Budget.
(a)    WEST, on its own behalf and on behalf of each other Person in the Serviced Group, shall adopt with respect to the period from the Initial Closing Date through December 31, 2020 (the “Initial Period”) and, thereafter, each one Year period during the term of this Agreement (a “One Year Period”):
(A)    an operating budget with respect to the Assets (an “Operating Budget”); and
(B)    a budget with respect to Asset Expenses related to the Assets (an “Asset Expenses Budget”).
The initial Operating Budget and the initial Asset Expenses Budget for the Initial Period (together, the “Initial Budgets”) shall be adopted by each Person within the Serviced Group by the Initial Closing Date in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. The Operating

Budget and Asset Expenses Budget for each One Year Period during the term of this Agreement shall be adopted by each Person within the Serviced Group in accordance with Section 7.05(c). The Servicer shall, in the course of providing the Services hereunder, use reasonable efforts to achieve the Initial Budgets during the Initial Period and to achieve the Operating Budget and the Asset Expenses Budgets for and during each One Year Period. The Initial Budgets and the Operating Budgets and Asset Expenses Budgets are collectively referred to herein as the “Budgets.”
(b)    To assist the Administrative Agent in the preparation and review of a proposed Operating Budget and a proposed Asset Expenses Budget for each One Year Period, the Servicer shall provide the Administrative Agent, by the November 1 immediately preceding such One Year Period, information in a form to be agreed from time to time relating to (i) lease rates, (ii) utilization rate, (iii) expected technical expenditures (including any costs to be capitalized) relating to the Assets, (iv) planned sales, (v) costs relating to insurance, legal, consulting and other similar expenses, including anticipated litigation expenses and (vi) such other information related to Asset Expenses as may be requested by the Administrative Agent for purposes of the preparation and review of such budgets, in each case including the assumptions relating thereto.

(d)    Following the receipt by the Servicer and WEST of the proposed Operating Budget and Asset Expenses Budget for a One Year Period as provided in Section 7.05(c), the Servicer and the Administrative Agent, on behalf of each Person within the Serviced Group, shall consult with each other to agree on a final Operating Budget and a final Asset Expenses Budget for such One Year Period, and taking into account such consultation, WEST shall approve and deliver to the Servicer, by the December 20 immediately preceding the commencement of each One Year Period, a final Operating Budget and Asset Expenses Budget for such One Year Period.
(e)    If at any time the Servicer reasonably believes that an incurrence of Asset Expenses is reasonably likely to cause actual aggregate Asset Expenses in the Initial Period or any One Year Period, as the case may be, to exceed 125% of the budgeted amount of aggregate Asset Expenses for such period as set forth in the applicable Budget, the Servicer shall not incur such Asset Expense without prior approval by WEST, and such excess payment and approval thereof shall be reported in the Annual Report for the relevant Initial Period or One Year Period, as the case may be.

(iii)    Unless provided for in the then applicable Budgets, enter into any contract for the modification or maintenance of any Asset if the costs to be incurred thereunder by the relevant Person within the Serviced Group are not economically justifiable in light of then current and reasonably anticipated market conditions for used aircraft and Aircraft Engines.

(c)    The Servicer agrees to give WEST prompt notice of any action, claim, demand, discovery of fact, proceeding or suit for which the Servicer intends to assert a right to indemnification under this Agreement; provided, however, that failure to give such notification shall not affect the Servicer’s entitlement to indemnification under this Section 11.01 unless and only to the extent such failure results in actual material prejudice to any Person within the Serviced Group with respect to the action, claim, demand, discovery of fact, proceeding or suit for which a right of indemnification is asserted.
(d)    For the avoidance of doubt, all payments owed to the Servicer pursuant to this Article 11 shall be paid from amounts available therefor under Section 3.09 of the Indenture and any recoveries pursuant to insurance policies maintained by WEST or the Servicer in respect of such amounts (after payment of such amounts to the Servicer) shall be deposited in the Collections Account.

SECTION 11.02.    Procedures for Defense of Claims.
(a)    If a Third Party Claim is made against the Servicer, the Servicer shall promptly notify WEST of such claim, and the Servicer or WEST (as agreed between them) will undertake the defense thereof. The failure to notify WEST promptly shall not relieve it of its obligations under this Article 11 unless such failure results in actual material prejudice to any Person within the Serviced Group with respect to the action, claim, demand, discovery of fact, proceeding or suit for which a right of indemnification is asserted.
(b)    If agreed and accepted by WEST and the Servicer, WEST shall within thirty (30) days undertake the conduct and control, through counsel of its own choosing and at the sole risk and expense of each Person within the Serviced Group, of the good faith settlement or defense of such claim, and the Servicer shall cooperate fully with WEST in connection therewith; provided that (i) at all times the Servicer shall be entitled to participate in such settlement or defense through counsel chosen by it, and the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by the Servicer, and (ii) no Person within the Serviced Group shall be entitled to settle such claims unless it shall have confirmed in writing the obligation of such Person to indemnify the Servicer for the liability asserted in such claim.

Such cooperation shall include the retention and the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim and the availability on a mutually convenient basis of directors, officers and employees to provide additional information. The Servicer shall not settle or compromise any claim without the written consent of WEST unless the Servicer agrees in writing to forego any and all claims for indemnification from each Person within the Serviced Group with respect to such claims.
