Item 6.
Indemnification
    of Directors and Officers
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporate Law
    ("DGCL"), as amended, provides in regard to
    indemnification of directors and officers as follows:
§ 145. Indemnification of officers, directors,
    employees and agents; insurance
(a) A corporation shall have power to indemnify any person
    who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
    threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding,
    whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other
    than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason
    of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer,
    employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at
    the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee
    or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
    trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including
    attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
    settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in
    connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person
    acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably
    believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
    corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or
    proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person's
    conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or
    proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a
    plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent,
II-1
Table of Contents
shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did
    not act in good faith and in a manner which the person
    reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
    interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal
    action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that the
    person's conduct was unlawful.
(b) A corporation shall have power to indemnify any person
    who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
    threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the
    right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by
    reason of the fact that the person is or was a director,
    officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was
    serving at the request of the corporation as a director,
    officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership,
    joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses
    (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably
    incurred by the person in connection with the defense or
    settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good
    faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or
    not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except
    that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim,
    issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged
    to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent
    that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or
    suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite
    the adjudication of liability but in view of all the
    circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably
    entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of
    Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.
(c) To the extent that a present or former director or
    officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or
    otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred
    to in subsections (a) and (b) of this section, or in
    defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall
    be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees)
    actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection
    therewith.
(d) Any indemnification under subsections (a) and
    (b) of this section (unless ordered by a court) shall be
    made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case
    upon a determination that indemnification of the present or
    former director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the
    circumstances because the person has met the applicable standard
    of conduct set forth in subsections (a) and (b) of
    this section. Such determination shall be made, with respect to
    a person who is a director or officer at the time of such
    determination, (
1
) by a majority vote of the directors
    who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even
    though less than a quorum, or (
2
) by a committee of such
    directors designated by majority vote of such directors, even
    though less than a quorum, or (
3
) if there are no such
    directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal
    counsel in a written opinion, or (
4
) by the stockholders.
(e) Expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by
    an officer or director in defending any civil, criminal,
    administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding may
    be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition
    of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an
    undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay
    such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such
    person is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as
    authorized in this section. Such expenses (including
    attorneys' fees) incurred by former directors and officers
    or other employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms and
    conditions, if any, as the corporation deems appropriate.
(f) The indemnification and advancement of expenses
    provided by, or granted pursuant to, the other subsections of
    this section shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights
    to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of
    expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of
    stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to
    action in such person's official capacity and as to action
    in another capacity while holding such office.
(g) A corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain
    insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director,
    officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was
    serving at the request of the corporation as a director,
    officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership,
    joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability
    asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any
    such capacity, or arising out of such person's status as
    such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to
    indemnify such person against such liability under this section.
(h) For purposes of this section, references to "the
    corporation" shall include, in addition to the resulting
    corporation, any constituent corporation (including any
    constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a
II-2
Table of Contents
consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had
    continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its
    directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that any person
    who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such
    constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of
    such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or
    agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust
    or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this
    section with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation
    as such person would have with respect to such constituent
    corporation if its separate existence had continued.
(i) For purposes of this section, references to "other
    enterprises" shall include employee benefit plans;
    references to "fines" shall include any excise taxes
    assessed on a person with respect to any employee benefit plan;
    and references to "serving at the request of the
    corporation" shall include any service as a director,
    officer, employee or agent of the corporation 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 such person reasonably believed to be in
    the interest 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 corporation"
    as referred to in this section.
(j) The indemnification and advancement of expenses
    provided by, or granted pursuant to, this section shall, unless
    otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a
    person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or
    agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and
    administrators of such a person.
(k) The Court of Chancery is hereby vested with exclusive
    jurisdiction to hear and determine all actions for advancement
    of expenses or indemnification brought under this section or
    under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or
    disinterested directors, or otherwise. The Court of Chancery may
    summarily determine a corporation's obligation to advance
    expenses (including attorneys' fees).
Article VII of AMR's by-laws provide in regard to
    indemnification of directors and officers as follows:
Section
1.
Nature
    of Indemnity.
To the fullest extent permitted by
    applicable law as it exists now or is hereafter amended, the
    corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless any person who was
    or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
    threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding,
    whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative by
    reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or
    officer of the corporation, or, while serving as a director or
    officer of the corporation, is or was serving at the request of
    the corporation as a director or officer of another corporation,
    partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including
    service with respect to employee benefit plans), or by reason of
    any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such
    capacity, and may indemnify and hold harmless any person who was
    or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to such an
    action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she
    is or was an employee or agent of the corporation, or, while
    serving as an employee or agent of the corporation, is or was
    serving at the request of the corporation as an employee or
    agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust
    or other enterprise (including service with respect to employee
    benefit plans), or by reason of any action alleged to have been
    taken or omitted in such capacity, against expenses (including
    attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
    settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her or on
    his or her behalf in connection with such action, suit or
    proceeding and any appeal therefrom, if he or she acted in good
    faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or
    not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with
    respect to any criminal action or proceeding had no reasonable
    cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful; except that in
    the case of an action or suit by or in the right of the
    corporation to procure a judgment in its favor (a) such
    indemnification shall be limited to expenses (including
    attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such
    person in the defense or settlement of such action or suit, and
    (b) no indemnification shall be made in respect of any
    claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been
    adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the
    extent that the Delaware Court of Chancery or the court in which
    such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application
    that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all
    the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and
    reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the
    Delaware Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem
    proper. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, except as
    otherwise provided in Section 5, the corporation
II-3
Table of Contents
shall be required to indemnify a covered person in connection
    with any action, suit or proceeding (or part thereof) commenced
    by such covered person only if the commencement of such action,
    suit or proceeding (or part thereof) by the covered person was
    authorized in the specific case by the board of directors of the
    corporation.
The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment,
    order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere
    or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption
    that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which
    he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the
    best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any
    criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe
    that his or her conduct was unlawful.
Section
2.
Successful
    Defense.
To the extent that a present or former
    director or officer of the corporation has been successful on
    the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or
    proceeding referred to in Section 1 or in defense of any
    claim, issue or matter therein, he or she shall be indemnified
    against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and
    reasonably incurred by him or her in connection therewith. To
    the extent that a present or former employee or agent of the
    corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in
    defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in
    Section 1 or in defense of any claim, issue or matter
    therein, he or she may be indemnified against expenses
    (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably
    incurred by him or her in connection therewith.
Section
3.
Determination
    that Indemnification Is Proper.
(a) Any
    indemnification of a present or former director or officer of
    the corporation under Section 1 of this Article VII
    (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation
    unless a determination is made that indemnification of the
    present or former director or officer is not proper in the
    circumstances because he or she has not met the applicable
    standard of conduct set forth in Section 1. Such
    determination may be made, with respect to a present or former
    director or officer, at the election of such present or former
    director or officer,
(1)
by a majority vote of the
    directors who are not parties to such action, suit or
    proceeding, even though less than a quorum,
(2)
by a
    committee of such directors designated by a majority vote of
    such directors, even though less than a quorum,
(3)
if there are no such directors, or if such
    directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written
    opinion, or
(4)
by the stockholders.
(b) Any indemnification of an employee or agent of the
    corporation (who is not also a present or former director or
    officer of the corporation) under Section 1 (unless ordered
    by a court) may be made by the corporation upon a determination
    that indemnification of the employee or agent is proper in the
    circumstances because such person has met the applicable
    standard of conduct set forth in Section 1. Such
    determination, in the case of an employee or agent, may be made
    in accordance with the procedures outlined in the second
    sentence of Section 3(a) or in such other manner as may be
    determined by the board of directors.
Section
4.
Advance
    Payment of Expenses.
To the fullest extent
    permitted by applicable law as it exists now or is hereafter
    amended, expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by a
    present or former director or officer in defending any civil,
    criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or
    proceeding for which indemnification is or may be available
    pursuant to this Article VII shall be paid by the
    corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action,
    suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on
    behalf of the director or officer to repay such amount if it
    shall ultimately be determined that he or she is not entitled to
    be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in this
    Article VII. Such expenses (including attorneys' fees)
    incurred by other employees and agents may be so paid upon such
    terms and conditions, if any, as the corporation deems
    appropriate. The board of directors may authorize the
    corporation's counsel to represent a director, officer,
    employee or agent in any action, suit or proceeding, whether or
    not the corporation is a party to such action, suit or
    proceeding.
Section
5.
Procedure
    for Indemnification of Directors or Officers.
Any
    indemnification of a director or officer of the corporation
    under Sections 1 and 2, or advance of costs, charges and
    expenses of a director or officer under Section 4, shall be
    made promptly, and in any event within sixty (60) days,
    upon the written request of the director or officer. If the
    corporation fails to respond within sixty (60) days then,
    to the fullest extent permitted by law, the request for
    indemnification shall be deemed to be approved. The right to
    indemnification or advances as granted by this Article VII
    shall be enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted
II-4
Table of Contents
by law, by the director or officer in any court of competent
    jurisdiction if the corporation denies such request, in whole or
    in part. Such person's costs and expenses incurred in
    connection with successfully establishing his or her right to
    indemnification, in whole or in part, in any such action shall
    also be indemnified by the corporation, to the fullest extent
    permitted by law. It shall be a defense to any such action
    (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for the advance
    of costs, charges and expenses under Section 4 where the
    required undertaking, if any, has been received by the
    corporation) that the claimant has not met the standard of
    conduct set forth in Section 1, but the burden of proving
    such defense shall be on the corporation. Neither the failure of
    the corporation (including its board of directors or a committee
    thereof, its independent legal counsel, and its stockholders) to
    have made a determination prior to the commencement of such
    action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the
    circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard
    of conduct set forth in Section 1, nor the fact that there
    has been an actual determination by the corporation (including
    its board of directors or a committee thereof, its independent
    legal counsel, and its stockholders) that the claimant has not
    met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to
    the action or create a presumption that the claimant has not met
    the applicable standard of conduct.
Section
6.
Survival,
    Preservation of Other Rights.
(a) The
    provisions of this Article VII shall constitute a contract
    between the corporation, on the one hand, and, on the other
    hand, each individual who serves or has served as a director or
    officer of the corporation, in consideration of such
    person's past or current and any future performance of
    services for the corporation, and pursuant to this
    Article VII the corporation intends to be legally bound to
    each such current or former director or officer of the
    corporation. With respect to each individual who serves or has
    served as a director or officer of the corporation, the rights
    conferred under this Article VII are present contractual
    rights, and such rights are fully vested, and shall be deemed to
    have vested fully, immediately upon such director or officer
    commencing service as a director or officer of the corporation.
    Neither amendment nor repeal nor modification of any provision
    of this Article VII nor the adoption of any provision of
    the corporation's certificate of incorporation, as amended
    or restated from time to time, inconsistent with this
    Article VII shall eliminate or reduce the effect of this
    Article VII in respect of any act or omission occurring, or
    any cause of action or claim that accrues or arises or any state
    of facts existing, at the time of or before such amendment,
    repeal, modification or adoption of an inconsistent provision
    (even in the case of a proceeding based on such a state of facts
    that is commenced after such time). The rights provided by, or
    granted pursuant to, this Article VII shall continue
    notwithstanding that the person has ceased to be a director or
    officer of the corporation and shall inure to the benefit of the
    estate, heirs, executors, administrators, legatees and
    distributees of such person.
(b) The provisions of this Article VII shall not be
    deemed exclusive of any other rights to which a director,
    officer, employee or agent may be entitled under any bylaw,
    agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or
    otherwise, both as to action in his or her official capacity and
    as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and
    shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director,
    officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the
    estate, heirs, executors, administrators, legatees and
    distributees of such person.
Section
7.
Insurance.
The
    corporation shall purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of
    any person who is or was or has agreed to become a director or
    officer of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request
    of the corporation as a director or officer of another
    corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
    enterprise against any liability asserted against him or her and
    incurred by him or her on his or her behalf in any such
    capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether
    or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him or
    her against such liability under the provisions of this Article
    VII; provided, that such insurance is available on acceptable
    terms, which determination shall be made by a vote of a majority
    of the entire board of directors.
Section
8.
Savings
    Clause.
If this Article VII or any portion
    hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of
    competent jurisdiction, then the corporation shall nevertheless
    indemnify each director or officer and may indemnify each
    employee or agent of the corporation as to costs, charges and
    expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and
    amounts paid in settlement with respect to any action, suit or
    proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
    investigative, including an action by or in the right of the
II-5
Table of Contents
corporation, to the full extent permitted by any applicable
    portion of this Article VII that shall not have been
    invalidated and to the full extent permitted by applicable law.
Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, as amended, provides in
    regard to the limitation of liability of directors and officers
    as follows:
(b) In addition to the matters required to be set forth in
    the certificate of incorporation by subsection (a) of this
    section, the certificate of incorporation may also contain any
    or all of the following matters:
* * * *
(7) A provision eliminating or limiting the personal
    liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders
    for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director,
    provided that such provision shall not eliminate or limit the
    liability of a director:
(i)
For any breach of the
    director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
    stockholders;
(ii)
for acts or omissions not in good
    faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing
    violation of law;
(iii)
under §174 of this
    title; or
(iv)
for any transaction from which the
    director derived an improper personal benefit. No such provision
    shall eliminate or limit the liability of a director for any act
    or omission occurring prior to the date when such provision
    becomes effective. All references in this paragraph to a
    director shall also be deemed to refer
(x)
to a
    member of the governing body of a corporation which is not
    authorized to issue capital stock, and
(y)
to such
    other person or persons, if any, who, pursuant to a provision of
    the certificate of incorporation in accordance with §141(a)
    of this title, exercise or perform any of the powers or duties
    otherwise conferred or imposed upon the board of directors by
    this title.
Article Ninth of AMR's certificate of incorporation
    provides in regard to the limitation of liability of directors
    and officers as follows:
NINTH:
No director of the corporation shall be
    liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary
    damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for
    liability (
i
) for any breach of the director's duty
    of loyalty to the corporation or its shareholders, (
ii
)
    for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
    intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law,
    (
iii
) under Section 174 of the Delaware General
    Corporation Law, or (
iv
) for any transaction from which
    the director derived an improper personal benefit.
AMR's directors and officers are also insured against
    claims arising out of the performance of their duties in such
    capacities.

Item 9.
Undertakings
(a) Rule 415 Offering. The undersigned registrant
    hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are
    being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration
    Statement:
(i) To include any Prospectus required by
    section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act, unless the
    information is contained in periodic reports filed by the
    registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of
    the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the
    Registration Statement;
(ii) To reflect in the Prospectus any facts or events
    arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement
    (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,
    individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change
    in the information set forth in the Registration Statement,
    unless the
II-6
Table of Contents
information is contained in periodic reports filed by the
    registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of
    the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the
    Registration Statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to
    the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the
    Registration Statement or any material change to such
    information in the Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability
    under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment
    shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to
    the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
    securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
    fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a
    post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered
    which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b) Subsequent Exchange Act Documents. The undersigned
    registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining
    any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
    registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a)
    or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where
    applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's
    annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Exchange
    Act) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration
    Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
    relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of
    such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
    bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Indemnification. Insofar as indemnification for
    liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to
    directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant
    pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
    registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
    Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is
    against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is,
    therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
    indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment
    by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director,
    officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
    successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
    asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
    connection with the securities being registered, the registrant
    will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
    settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
    appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
    indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in
    the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
    adjudication of such issue.
