On April 28, 2010, AeroCentury Corp. (the "Company") and Union Bank, N.A., California Bank & Trust, and US Bank National Association, entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the "Loan Agreement") providing the Company with  a credit facility of $75 million, for a two-year term, and with provisions allowing the Company to increase the maximum amount available under the credit facility to $110 million.  Union Bank, N.A. will act as  agent bank under the Loan Agreement.  The borrowings under the Loan Agreement are secured by a first priority lien in all of  the Company's assets, including its aircraft portfolio.  The Company used the proceeds of the initial draw under the Loan Agreement to pay off the outstanding amount of the Company's former credit facility (the "PNC Facility") with PNC Bank, NA, as agent for itself and the participants thereunder.  Upon repayment of the outstanding amount due under the PNC Facility,  the PNC Facility was terminated and the mutual obligations thereunder were extinguished.  In connection with the Loan Agreement, the Company entered into a new Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement between and among the Company, Union Bank, N.A., as agent, and the holders of the Company's Subordinated Notes, and a new Management Fee Subordination Agreement with Union Bank, NA, as agent.  The foregoing descriptions of the Loan Agreement, the Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement and the Management Fee Subordination Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to such agreements filed herewith as Exhibits 99.1, 99.2 and 99.3, respectively.  The press release issued by the Company on April 29, 2010, disclosing the Company's entry into the Loan Agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.4.
