ITEM 2.03. CREATION OF A DIRECT FINANCIAL OBLIGATION OR AN OBLIGATION UNDER AN OFF-BALANCE SHEET
ARRANGEMENT OF A REGISTRANT
On September 28, 2009, AMR Corporation (the “Company”) and Wilmington Trust Company, as trustee
(the “Trustee”) entered into the Supplemental Indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture”),
supplemental to the Indenture, dated as of February 1, 2004, between the Company and the Trustee
(the “Base Indenture, “ as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), providing
for the previously announced issuance by the Company of $460,000,000 million aggregate principal
amount of its 6.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2014 (the “Notes”). The Notes are unconditionally
guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by American Airlines, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company (“American”), pursuant to the Guarantee, dated as of September 28, 2009 (the “Guarantee”).
Interest on the Notes is payable semiannually in arrears on October 15 and April 15 of each year,
beginning on April 15, 2010. The stated maturity date of the Notes is October 15, 2014. The Notes
are convertible by holders into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an initial conversion rate
of 101.0101 shares per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, equivalent to an initial conversion
price of approximately $9.90 per share, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events
specified in the Indenture, at any time prior to the close of business on the business day
immediately preceding the stated maturity date of the Notes. Maturity of the Notes may be
accelerated upon the occurrence of certain events of default, including failure by the Company (in
some cases after notice or the expiration of a grace period, or both) to make payments under the
Indenture when due, to deliver shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes or to comply
with certain covenants, as well as certain bankruptcy events.
The Notes and the Guarantee were registered for offer and sale pursuant to the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), under the Company’s and American’s shelf registration
statement on Form S-3 (Registration Nos. 333-160646 and 333-160646-01) (the “Registration
