 5. Description of Notes. The Notes shall bear interest from April 8, 2013 at the rate of 17% per
annum; provided, however, that in the event that the Issuer defaults in any payment of interest or principal on any Note when the same becomes due and payable, the portion of the principal or interest for which interest has not been
paid when due or such portion of the principal or interest which has not been paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of 22% per annum. Interest shall accrue on the principal amount of the Notes on a daily basis until such time as the
principal amount is paid off in full in cash in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Interest on each Note shall be compounded annually on each anniversary of the applicable Issuance Date for such Note and, except as otherwise provided in
this Agreement, shall be added at such time to, and thereafter be a part of and treated as principal of the applicable Notes (regardless of whether evidenced by a Note). The unpaid principal and accrued interest shall be due and payable in cash on

elapsed, including the first day but excluding the payment date. 
 If any payment on the Notes becomes due and payable on a day other than
a day on which commercial banks in New York, New York and London, England are open for the transaction of normal business (a “Business Day”), the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with
respect to any payment of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. 
 6. Reserved. 

7. Payment Provisions. 
 7.1 Payments
on the Notes. The Issuer shall make payments of principal of and interest on the Notes when due; provided that prior to the Maturity Date, interest shall not be due and payable, rather interest shall accrue on the principal amount of the
Notes until such time as the principal amount is paid off in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Interest shall be compounded annually on each anniversary of the Issuance Date and shall be added at such time to, and thereafter be a part of

whole or in part, at the Redemption Price (an “Optional Issuer Redemption”). 
 7.3 Mandatory Redemption by the Issuer.
Promptly, and in any event no later than the second (2nd) Business Day following the issuance or incurrence by the Issuer of any Indebtedness that would require the Issuer to redeem the

redeem the principal and interest of the Notes pro rata among all Lenders in accordance with each Lender’s pro rata share of the aggregate outstanding principal or interest amount, as

Notes a notice of offer to redeem up to 100% of the then-outstanding principal amount of the Notes held by such holder (a “Transaction Redemption”), at the Redemption Price. Each Lender shall have twenty (20) Business Days
following receipt of such notice to notify the Issuer of such Lender’s acceptance of the offer to tender all or any portion of its Notes. 

7.5 Mechanics of Redemption. In the case of an Optional Issuer Redemption or a Transaction Redemption, the Issuer shall notify the
other Parties not less than 15 days nor more than 90 days prior to the date of redemption. All notices of redemption shall state (a) the date set for redemption, (b) the aggregate principal amount of the Notes and accrued interest to be

(or portions thereof) to be redeemed, and unless the Issuer defaults in making the redemption payment, that interest on the Notes (or portions thereof) will cease to accrue on and after such date, (f) the place where the Notes are to be
surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, (g) that the Notes must be surrendered to collect the Redemption Price, and (h) the section of the Notes pursuant to which the Notes are to be redeemed. 

Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Notes (or any portions thereof) to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date or other
applicable date of redemption, become due and payable at the applicable Redemption Price, and unless the Issuer defaults in making the redemption payment, from and after such date such Notes (or such portions thereof) shall cease to bear interest.
Upon surrender of the Notes for redemption in accordance with such notice, the applicable Redemption Price for the Notes (or any portion thereof) shall be paid by the Issuer to the holders of the Notes, and if less than 100% of the Notes have been
redeemed, the Issuer shall deliver to the Lenders new Notes (or the surrendered Notes with the proper notations made on Schedule A thereto to reflect the redemption) for the principal amount thereof remaining unredeemed. If a Note called for
redemption shall not be paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the Note shall continue to bear interest from the Redemption Date (or other applicable redemption date) until the date on which the Redemption Price plus any additional interest
thereon is paid therefor.

first right to make an offer to purchase any or all of the Offered Notes; provided that the number of Offered Notes offered to be purchased by such ROFO Rightholder together with any other participating ROFO Rightholders in the aggregate is
equal to or exceeds all (but not less than all) of the Offered Notes (for the avoidance of doubt, in the event that the participating ROFO Rightholders in the aggregate fail to offer to purchase all Offered Notes, then the Selling Lender shall be
entitled to sell any or all of the Offered Notes to a third party purchaser at any price). In the event that a ROFO Rightholder shall offer to purchase any or all of the Offered Notes, the ROFO Rightholder shall so notify the Selling Lender in
writing, and such notice shall be irrevocable (such notice, a “ROFO Election”) and cause such ROFO Rightholder an obligation to purchase the number of Offered Notes set forth in such ROFO Election if the Selling Lender accepts such
offer to purchase any or all Offered Notes pursuant to the terms of this Section 11. The ROFO Election shall set forth the price (the “Offer Price”) at which such ROFO Rightholder is willing to purchase any or all of the
Offered Notes. Each ROFO Rightholder that wishes to purchase any or all Offered Notes shall be required to deliver a ROFO Election to the Selling Lender no later than 10 days after receipt of an Offer Notice (the “ROFO Period”).

 c) The Selling Lender shall have 10 days after the earlier of (i) the expiration of the ROFO Period, or (ii) if all ROFO
Parties have delivered a ROFO Election or rejected the option to deliver such election prior to the expiration of the ROFO Period, the day on which the last ROFO Party delivered such ROFO Election or rejected the option to deliver such election, as
the case may be, to accept a ROFO Rightholder’s Offer Price by delivery of notice thereof (an “Acceptance Notice”). If the Selling Lender delivers an Acceptance Notice with regard to any or all Offered Notes, then the Selling
Lender and each ROFO Rightholder to whom the Selling Lender has delivered an Acceptance Notice shall negotiate in good faith to consummate the transaction within 15 days following the delivery of the Acceptance Notice. If the Selling Lender does not
deliver an Acceptance Notice with regard to any or all Offered Notes, then the Selling Lender shall have the right to sell any or all of the Offered Notes not included in the Acceptance Notice to any third party purchaser; provided that the
terms and conditions, including with respect to price, of the Transfer of the Offered Notes to such third party purchaser, taken as a whole, shall be as or more favorable to the Selling Lender than the terms and conditions set forth in the original
Offer Notice, including the Offer Price; provided, further, that such sale shall be consummated within 90 days following the day on which the last ROFO Party delivered the ROFO Election or rejected the option to deliver such election.
For the avoidance of doubt, in the event the Selling Lender desires to sell the Offered Notes, or any part thereof, to any third party purchaser at a price lower than the Offer Price, the Selling Lender shall deliver a further Offer Notice to each
of the ROFO Rightholders. 
 d) If each of the ROFO Rightholders (i) notifies the Selling Lender that they do not wish to submit a ROFO
Election within the ROFO Period, (ii) does not submit a ROFO Election within the ROFO Period or (iii) with respect to a ROFO Rightholder that has received an Acceptance Notice, such ROFO Rightholder does not consummate the transaction
through no fault of the Selling Lender within 15 days following the delivery of the Acceptance Notice, then the Selling Lender may sell the Offered Notes to any third party at any price. 

  
 12 








 e) The closing of any sale of Offered Notes pursuant to this Section 11 shall take place no
later than 15 days following the Acceptance Notice (or upon the expiration of such longer period if required by law), or such earlier date as may be agreed by the parties to the sale. 

f) If more than one ROFO Rightholder submits a ROFO Election under this Section 11, then each such ROFO Rightholder shall be entitled to
purchase up to an amount of Offered Notes equal to the aggregate amount of such Offered Notes multiplied by a fraction (expressed as a percentage rounded to two decimal places), the numerator of which is the aggregate principal amount of Notes held
by such ROFO Rightholder and the denominator of which is the aggregate principal amount of Notes held by all ROFO Rightholders that have submitted a ROFO Election under this Section 11 (such amount for purposes of this Section 11, the
“Participation Amount”); provided that no ROFO Rightholder that has submitted a ROFO Election under this Section 11 may purchase less than its Participation Amount unless all participating ROFO Rightholders collectively
purchase all (but not less than all) of the Offered Notes. 
 11.4 Subject to the foregoing, any transferee that receives any interest in a
Note pursuant to this Section 11 shall agree in writing with the parties hereto to be bound by, and to comply with, all applicable provisions of the Note and this Agreement in respect of the Note and such transferee shall thereafter be deemed
to be a “Lender” for all purposes herein. If any interest in a Note is Transferred in compliance with this Section 11, such Note shall be cancelled and the Issuer shall execute and deliver a new note (in substantially the form of such
Transferred Note) to each Person to whom an interest in such Note has been Transferred (and to the Transferring holder if such holder retains an interest in such holder’s Note) in an aggregate principal amount equal to such Person’s
interest in such Note. This Agreement and any rights or obligations hereunder shall not be assigned or delegated to any Person except in accordance with this Section 11, and any such assignment or delegation not in compliance with the foregoing
shall be null and void. 
 12. No New Senior Indebtedness. The Issuer may not issue or incur any Senior Indebtedness after the date hereof unless
(i) the Issuer uses the full proceeds of such additional Senior Indebtedness to redeem the Notes in accordance with the redemption mechanism set forth in Section 7.3 above (or Original Notes, Additional Notes, Third Notes or Fourth Notes
outstanding in accordance with the respective redemption mechanisms under the Original Note Purchase Agreement, Additional Note Purchase Agreement, Third Note Purchase Agreement or Fourth Note Purchase Agreement, as applicable), or (ii) the
Majority Lenders consent to such additional Senior Indebtedness. For clarity, this Section 12 applies only to Senior Indebtedness and shall not restrict or prohibit Issuer from incurring any Indebtedness that is not Senior Indebtedness. 

13. Security Interest.

words of similar meaning when used in this Agreement refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular Section or provision of this Agreement. References to “or” shall be deemed to be disjunctive but not necessarily
exclusive (i.e., unless the context dictates otherwise, “or” shall be interpreted to mean “and/or” rather than “either/or”). Each Party acknowledges that this Agreement was negotiated by it with the benefit of
representation by legal counsel, and any rule of construction or interpretation otherwise requiring this Agreement to be construed or interpreted against any Party shall not apply to any construction or interpretation hereof. 

  
 21 








 17.10 Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
if the Intercreditor Agreement shall remain outstanding, the rights granted to the Lenders hereunder, the lien and security interest granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Fifth Security Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by
the Collateral Agent hereunder or thereunder shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement, the terms of the
Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control with respect to any right or remedy, and no right, power or remedy granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder shall be exercised by the Collateral Agent, and no direction shall be given by the
Collateral Agent, in contravention of the Intercreditor Agreement.

	$                    	  	                    , 20        

 VIRGIN AMERICA INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), for value received hereby promises
to pay to                      (the “Holder”) the principal amount of
                                
($                    ), together with interest on the unpaid principal balance from April 8, 2013 at the rate of 17% per annum, subject to
adjustment. Interest shall accrue on the principal amount of the Notes pursuant to the terms of Section 7.1 of the Fifth Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of [        ] [    ], 2013,
among the Issuer and the other parties named therein (as may be amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Note Purchase Agreement”). Such increases in the outstanding principal amount of this Note
and any decreases pursuant to the provisions of Section 7 of the Note Purchase Agreement shall be reflected on Schedule I hereto. Unpaid principal and accrued interest shall be due and payable in cash on the earliest of
(a) June 9, 2016, (b) the Redemption Date, with respect to all or any portion of the Notes required to be redeemed on such date in accordance with the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement, (c) the occurrence of an Event of
Default (provided, however, that in the case of an Event of Default listed in Sections 8.3(b), 8.8 or 8.9 of the Note Purchase Agreement, the unpaid principal and accrued interest shall be due and payable only upon the written demand of the Majority
Lenders) (the earliest to occur of (a)-(c), the “Maturity Date”). Interest shall be determined in all instances based upon a 365-day year (or 366 days in the case of a leap year) and the actual number of days elapsed including
the first day but excluding the payment date. 
 This Note is one of the Notes bearing interest at the rate of 17% and due on the Maturity
Date issued under the Note Purchase Agreement and the holder hereof is entitled equally and ratably with the holders of all other Notes outstanding under the Note Purchase Agreement to all the benefits provided for thereby or referred to

therein. Reference is hereby made to the Note Purchase Agreement for a statement of such rights and benefits. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the
meanings given to such terms in the Note Purchase Agreement.

 A-2 








 Notwithstanding any other provision herein, any amounts payable by Issuer in respect of this Note
(including, without limitation, principal and interest) shall be paid net of any withholding taxes that may be required under applicable law. It is the intention of the parties to the Note Purchase Agreement that accruals of interest, or payments of
accrued and unpaid interest under the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement not be subject to the withholding of any taxes unless required under applicable law. Before withholding any taxes from any such accruals or payments, the Issuer shall consult
with tax counsel reasonably acceptable to the Holder and shall notify the Holder if after consulting such tax counsel, it reasonably determines that withholding is required. If any such accruals or payments to the Holder are subject to withholding
tax, the Holder severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer for any taxes, additions to tax or interest thereon that may be imposed on the Issuer for any failure to withhold in respect of such accruals or payments other than any
interest or additions to tax that are imposed as a result of the gross negligence of the Issuer.

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuer has caused this Note to be executed in its name by its duly
authorized officer as of the date set forth above.
