            As used herein, with respect to any year, the term“Annual Travel Limit” shall mean an amount (initially $24,108), which amount shall be adjusted (i) annually (beginningwith the year 2005) by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Company’s average fare perrevenue passenger for its jet operations with respect to the applicable year as reported in its Annual Report on Form 10-K (or, ifnot so reported, as determined by the Company’s independent auditors) (the “Average Fare”) for such year, and thedenominator of which shall be the Average Fare for the prior year, (ii) annually to add thereto any portion of such amount unusedsince the year 2004, and (iii) after adjustments described in clauses (i) and (ii) above, automatically upon any change in thevaluation methodology for imputed income from flights (as compared with the valuation methodology for imputed income from flightsused by the Company on the date hereof), so as to preserve the benefit of $24,108 annually (adjusted in accordance with clauses (i)and (ii) above) of flights relative to current valuation methodology (*e.g.*, if a change in the valuation methodologyresults, on average, in such flights being valued 15% higher than current valuation, then the Annual Travel Limit would beincreased by 15% to $27,724, assuming no other adjustments pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above).  In determining anyadjustment pursuant to clause (iii) above, the Company shall be entitled to rely on a good faith calculation performed by itsindependent auditors based on a statistically significant random sampling of flight valuations compared with the applicable priorvaluations of identical flights, which calculation (and the basis for any adjustments pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii) above) willbe provided to you upon your request. The Company will promptly notify you in writing of any adjustments to the Annual Travel Limitdescribed in this paragraph.

In determining any adjustmentpursuant to clause (iii) above, the Company shall be entitled to rely on a good faith calculation performed by its independentauditors based on a statistically significant random sampling of flight valuations compared with the applicable prior valuations ofidentical flights, which calculation (and the basis for any adjustments pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii) above) will be provided toyou upon your request.  The Company will promptly notify you in writing of any adjustments to the Annual Gross Up Limitdescribed in this paragraph.

            As used herein, a year may consist of twelve consecutivemonths other than a calendar year, it being the Company's current practice for purposes of Flight Benefits for a year to commenceon November 1 and end on the following October 31 (for example, the twelve-month period from November 1, 2003 to October 31, 2004is considered the year 2004 for purposes of Flight Benefits); provided that all calculations for purposes of clause (i) in theprior two paragraphs shall be with respect to fiscal years of the Company.

You agree that the credit availability under your UATP card (or Similar Card) may besuspended if you do not timely reimburse the Company as described in the foregoing sentence or if you exceed the applicable AnnualTravel Limit with respect to a year; provided, that, immediately upon the Company's receipt of your reimbursement in full (or, inthe case of exceeding the applicable Annual Travel Limit, beginning the next following year and after such reimbursement), thecredit availability under your UATP card (or Similar Card) will be restored.

----

            The sole cost to you of flights on the ExpressJet systempursuant to use of your Flight Benefits will be the imputed income with respect to flights on the ExpressJet system charged on yourUATP card (or Similar Card), calculated as required by law, and reported to you as required by applicable law.  With respectto any period for which the Company is obligated to provide the tax gross up described above, you will provide to the Company, uponrequest, a calculation or other evidence of your marginal tax rate sufficient to permit the Company to calculate accurately theamount to be paid to you.
