Jackson Square Aviation Announces A319 Sale/Leaseback With Avianca and Execution of Two Debt Facilities With NordLB

SAN FRANCISCO, April 12, 2010 - Jackson Square Aviation, LLC is pleased to announce the delivery of one
Airbus A319-115 to Aerovias del Continente Americano S.A. ("Avianca"),
Colombia's leading airline. This transaction represents a continuation of
Jackson Square's long relationship with Avianca and the second sale/leaseback
transaction of its new fleet, which is being built in partnership with
Oaktree Capital. Norddeutsche Landesbank Girozentrale ("NordLB") provided
Jackson Square with long-term debt financing on this aircraft and has also
provided financing on an A320 which Jackson Square purchased at delivery and
leased to Avianca in February 2010.

"This is an exciting time for Jackson Square, as we have recently
launched our new brand and have added another excellent transaction to our
growing fleet," said Scott Weiss, Jackson Square's COO and EVP of Capital
Markets. "Avianca has been a great customer of ours over the years and we're
thrilled to be able to conduct more business with one of Latin America's
strongest airlines. And we're excited to have executed our first debt
financing, as NordLB is a great partner for us as we build out our portfolio
of next-generation aircraft. We have over US$1 billion in committed aircraft
purchases already, and we're working hard to provide as much capital as
possible to our worldwide customer base."

Fabio Villegas, Avianca's Chief Executive Officer, said, "Avianca
appreciates Jackson Square Aviation's support for our fleet renewal plan,
which will help us to reduce fuel costs, improve overall fleet reliability,
and achieve higher passenger comfort levels. With the current volatility of
oil prices, fuel-efficient aircraft are a key competitive advantage." Avianca
provides domestic and international passenger and cargo air service to and
within Colombia, where the topography and distances between cities make air
transportation vital.

Oliver Gruenke, NordLB's Deputy Head of Global Aircraft Finance,
commented that NordLB is delighted to add Jackson Square and Avianca to its
client list. "Our bank has been among the most active aviation lenders in
this environment, and business with companies like these fit our growth
agenda perfectly. It is our full intention to finance Jackson Square on many
future transactions as well, as they lease to the world's major airlines."
