#### EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (this "Amendment") amends our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 16, 2026 (the "Form 10-K"). We are filing this Amendment to provide the information required by Part III of Form 10-K previously omitted from the Form 10-K in accordance with General Instruction G.(3) to Form 10-K. Accordingly, Items 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 of Part III of the Form 10-K are replaced in their entirety with the information provided herein. We are filing this Form 10-K/A to include Part III information in our Form 10-K because we will not file a definitive proxy statement containing such information within 120 days after the end of the fiscal year covered by the Form 10-K. In addition, this Form 10-K/A deletes the reference on the cover of the Form 10-K to the incorporation by reference of portions of our proxy statement into Part III of the Form 10-K.

As previously disclosed, on November 18, 2024, Spirit Airlines, LLC (formerly known as Spirit Airlines, Inc. "Former Spirit") ("Spirit Airlines") commenced a voluntary case under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the "Bankruptcy Court"), and, on November 25, 2024, certain of Spirit Airlines' subsidiaries (together with Spirit Airlines, the "Company Parties") also filed voluntary petitions seeking relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the Bankruptcy Court and joined the 2024 Bankruptcy Case (the "2024 Bankruptcy" or "2024 Chapter 11 Bankruptcy"). Former Spirit completed a corporate reorganization pursuant to which Spirit Aviation Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company") became the new parent company, with Spirit Airlines becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and converted from a Delaware corporation to a Delaware limited liability company. The Company is the successor registrant to Former Spirit.

On August 29, 2025 (the "Petition Date"), the Company, and each of its direct or indirect subsidiaries, filed voluntary petitions under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the Bankruptcy Court (the "2025 Bankruptcy" or "2025 Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Proceedings").

Because no financial statements have been included in this Amendment and this Amendment does not contain or amend any disclosure with respect to Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S-K, paragraphs 3, 4 and 5 of the certifications have been omitted. We are not including the certifications under Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as no financial statements are being filed with this Amendment.

Except as expressly stated, this Amendment does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Form 10-K or modify or update in any way any of the other items or disclosures contained in the Form 10-K, including, without limitation, the consolidated financial statements and the related footnotes. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Form 10-K and the Company's other filings with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Form 10-K.

#### Board Responsibilities; Risk Oversight
Under our bylaws and corporate governance guidelines, the Board is responsible for, among other things, overseeing the conduct of our business; reviewing and, where appropriate, approving our major financial objectives, plans and actions; and reviewing the performance of our CEO and other members of management based on, among other things, reports from the Compensation Committee. Following the end of each year, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee oversees the Board's annual self-evaluation, which includes a review of any areas in which the Board or management believes the Board can make a better contribution to our corporate governance, as well as a review of Board composition, the structure and membership of Board committees, and an assessment of the Board's compliance with corporate governance principles. In fulfilling the Board's responsibilities, directors have full access to our management and independent advisors.

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
With respect to the Board's role in our risk oversight, our Audit and Risk Management Committee discusses with management our policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management and our significant financial risk exposures and the actions management has taken to limit, monitor or control such exposures. Our Audit and Risk Management Committee additionally reviews our activities, programs, and procedures on safety, securities and operations matters. Moreover, it exercises oversight over the Company's management of cybersecurity matters, receives regular updates from management regarding cybersecurity matters, including the description of risks, protections and procedures. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews the Company's environmental and social strategy and practices, in coordination with the Audit and Risk Management Committee's oversight of related risks. Our Audit and Risk Management and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees report to the full Board with respect to the foregoing matters, among others. Lastly, our Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to the Company's executive compensation plans and periodically reports to the entire Board about such risks.

The Company's management is responsible for the day-to-day management of the risks facing the Company, including macroeconomic, financial, strategic, operational, public reporting, legal, regulatory, environmental, social, political, cybersecurity, compliance and reputational risks. Management carries out this risk management responsibility through a coordinated effort among the various risk management functions within the Company.

#### Leadership Structure
We have historically separated the roles of CEO and Chairman of the Board in recognition of the differences between the two roles. The CEO is responsible for setting our strategic direction and our day-to-day leadership and performance, while the Chairman of the Board provides general guidance to the CEO and sets the agenda for Board meetings and presides over meetings of the full Board. Robert A. Milton currently serves as our Chairman of the Board and Mr. Davis currently serves as our CEO. Our bylaws provide that the independent directors may appoint a lead director from among them to perform such duties as may be assigned by the Board.

The Board has the following standing committees: an Audit and Risk Management Committee, a Compensation Committee and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and a Strategy and Finance Committee. The composition and responsibilities of each committee are described below. Members serve on these committees until their resignation or until otherwise determined by the Board.

#### Board Committee Independence Standards
While the Company was delisted from NYSE American in September 2025 and is therefore no longer required to comply with the director independence standards of NYSE American with respect to its Audit and Risk Management Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, solely for purposes of the disclosures in this Amendment, the Company has applied the independence standards of NYSE American in accordance with Regulation S-K, Item 407(a)(1)(ii).

#### Audit and Risk Management Committee
Our Audit and Risk Management Committee oversees our corporate accounting and financial reporting process. Among other matters, the Audit and Risk Management Committee evaluates the independent auditors' qualifications, independence and performance; determines the engagement of the independent auditors; reviews and approves the scope of the annual audit and the audit fee; discusses with management and the independent auditors the results of the annual audit and the review of our quarterly financial statements; approves the retention of the independent auditors to perform any proposed permissible non-audit services; monitors the rotation of partners of the independent auditors on the Company's engagement team as required by law; reviews our critical accounting policies and estimates; oversees our internal audit function and annually reviews the Audit and Risk Management Committee charter and the committee's performance. The Audit and Risk Committee additionally reviews our safety programs, policies and procedures and operational compliance with respect to physical and information security and cybersecurity risks. The Audit and Risk Management Committee performs other functions as set forth in the Audit and Risk Management Committee charter, which satisfies the applicable standards of the SEC and NYSE American. A copy of the Audit and Risk Management Committee charter is available on the Company's website at <u>http://ir.spirit.com</u>.

All members of our Audit Committee meet the requirements for financial literacy under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and NYSE American. The Board has determined that all members of the Audit and Risk Management Committee are financial experts as defined under the applicable rules of the SEC and thereby have the accounting and financial management expertise required under the applicable rules and regulations of the NYSE American. All four members of the Audit and Risk Management Committee are independent directors as defined under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and NYSE American.

#### ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

#### Compensation Discussion and Analysis

#### Introduction
The following Compensation Discussion and Analysis ("CD&A") provides information about our executive compensation programs for our named executive officers (or "NEOs"), who consist of our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and our three other most highly compensated executive officers, and our compensation decisions for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

There have been a number of extraordinary corporate events and potential transactions that have affected our company in recent years, impacted our executive compensation program and our approach to compensating our NEOs. In particular:

• On November 18, 2024, the Former Spirit and certain of its subsidiaries commenced the 2024 Bankruptcy and emerged from bankruptcy on March 12, 2025 as Spirit Aviation Holdings, Inc. Upon emergence, all pre-emergence equity securities of the Company (including outstanding equity incentive awards) were canceled. Upon emergence from bankruptcy, we established a new board of directors and established a new go-forward executive compensation program (including performance metrics and goals).

• On August 29, 2025, the Company and its subsidiaries commenced the 2025 Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Proceedings.

In light of these events, our executive compensation program in recent years (including in 2025) has been focused on retaining individuals critical to our business and to mitigate the risk of turnover amongst our executive team.

The CD&A covers the executive compensation program of the Company for 2025, and discusses the impacts of the 2024 Bankruptcy and the 2025 Bankruptcy on the overall compensation of our NEOs, and other actions taken after the end of fiscal year 2025, to the extent that such actions could affect a fair understanding of a NEO's compensation for 2025.

#### Our NEOs for fiscal year 2025 were as follows:
• David M. Davis, President and Chief Executive Officer\*

• Frederick S. Cromer, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer

• John Bendoraitis, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer

• Thomas C. Canfield, Executive Vice President and General Counsel\*\*

• Arijit R. Ghosh, Senior Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer

• Edward M. Christie III, former President and Chief Executive Officer\*

*\** *As previously disclosed in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 6, 2025, Ted Christie stepped down from his role as the President, Chief Executive Officer and director effective as of April 6, 2025. Effective April 21, 2025, David Davis was appointed as our President, Chief Executive Officer and a member of our Board. From April 6, 2025 through April 21, 2025, Messrs. Cromer, Bendoraitis and Canfield collectively served as the Office of the President.* 

*\*\** *As previously disclosed in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on July 21, 2025, Mr. Canfield was promoted from Senior Vice President to Executive President of the Company effective July 21, 2025.* 

#### Executive Compensation Philosophy
The market for experienced management talent is highly competitive inside and outside our industry. Airline industry consolidation, new airline startups as well as a tight labor market have intensified that competitiveness. Our goal is to attract, motivate and retain executives with the talent and experience necessary for us to achieve our strategic business plan and to effectively manage each of our business functions. In doing so, we draw upon a pool of talent that is highly sought after within the airline industry and elsewhere in the travel and hospitality sectors and in comparable businesses in general industries. Within this talent pool, we seek individuals who we believe will be able to contribute to our unique ultra-low-cost operating model and our vision of future success, support our culture and values, and enhance the cohesiveness and productivity of our leadership team.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
With the input and assistance of an independent compensation consultant, the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors (the "Compensation Committee") has adhered to a comprehensive executive compensation program designed to provide an appropriately balanced mix of (i) fixed versus at-risk variable compensation, (ii) annual versus long-term compensation and (iii) cash-versus equity-based compensation. These components are designed to attract and retain highly talented and experienced executives who are key to our success and emphasize a pay-for-performance philosophy. As further described below, our executive compensation program for fiscal year 2025 consisted of three primary components: fixed base salary, annual cash incentive (bonus) compensation linked to performance targets and long-term incentive compensation consisting of a combination of restricted stock units ("RSUs"), performance share units ("PSUs"), and performance-based cash incentive awards ("Performance Cash Awards"). In addition, in order to ensure the continued retention of our NEOs, and other executives who are critical to our business, the Compensation Committee approved the grant of one-time cash retention awards in August 2025 (as described in more detail below).

Our executive compensation philosophy is based on the following principles:

• Attract and retain highly talented and experienced executives;

• Align executive compensation with our business strategy and objectives;

• Remain competitive within the airline industry and elsewhere in the travel, hospitality and general industries where we draw talent from;

• Reward both short-term and long-term performance and create long-term value for our stockholders;

• Encourage executive ownership in our Company;

• Ensure that our executive compensation practices are transparent, fair and consistent with market practices; and

• In light of the events affecting our Company in recent years, including the 2024 Bankruptcy and 2025 Bankruptcy, the Compensation Committee has been focused on ensuring that our executive compensation program is designed to retain individuals critical to our business and to mitigate the risk of turnover amongst our executive team, including our NEOs. Accordingly, and as described in more detail below, our executives (including our NEOs) have received retention bonuses in order to ensure their continued retention during this period of uncertainty.

#### Key Executive Compensation Practices
To further align our executives' interests with those of our stockholders and ensure adherence to corporate governance best practices related to executive compensation, our compensation program incorporates the following key practices:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| WE DO | WE DO NOT |
|  √ Base our short-term incentive plan on multiple performance measurements, including financial and operational metrics and strategic goals | × Allow hedging or pledging of Company securities |
|  √ Complement our annual compensation to each NEO with the grant of time-based and performance-based multi-year vesting schedules and performance periods for equity incentive awards | × Encourage unnecessary or excessive risk taking as a result of our compensation policies and practices |
|  √ Determine any annual base salary adjustments and annual long-term equity awards to our NEOs, partially, on prior-year individual performance | × Have employment agreements with any of our NEOs other than with our CEO |
|  √ Select and use a compensation peer group of similarly sized companies that reflect the marketplace for talent in which we compete, and select and use a peer group of publicly traded airline companies to compare and rank the Company's short-term and long-term incentive metrics | × Provide a defined benefit pension plan or any supplemental executive retirement plan or other form of non-qualified retirement plan for our NEOs |
|  √ Maintain robust clawback policies pursuant to which the Company can seek recovery of certain cash- or equity-based incentive compensation (both performance- and time-based) to ensure accountability | × Provide for any "gross ups" for any excise taxes imposed with respect to Section 280G (change-in-control payments) or Section 409A (nonqualified deferred compensation) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (which we refer to as the "Code") |
|  √ Engage an independent compensation consultant to advise the Compensation Committee, which is comprised solely of independent directors | × Provide for single-trigger vesting acceleration of equity awards granted to our NEOs upon a change in control of the Company unless the acquirer does not assume or replace such awards |

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| WE DO | WE DO NOT |
|  √ Conduct regular executive sessions of our Compensation Committee from which executives and other employees are excluded | × Allow any repricing of stock options/stock appreciation rights without stockholder approval or unlimited transferability of awards |
|  √ Ensure that a significant portion of our non-employee director compensation consists of time-vested restricted stock units | × Pay dividends on unvested stock awards |

#### Determination of Executive Compensation

#### Role of the Compensation Committee and Management in Compensation Decisions
Our Compensation Committee is appointed by the Board and is responsible for establishing, implementing, and monitoring adherence to our compensation philosophy and programs. We seek to ensure that the total compensation paid to our executive officers is fair, reasonable and competitive. The Compensation Committee meets periodically to specifically review and determine adjustments, if any, to the CEO's compensation, including his base salary, annual bonus compensation and long-term incentive awards, and to review and consider recommendations of the CEO with respect to the other NEOs' base salaries, annual bonus compensation and long-term incentive awards. The Compensation Committee annually evaluates our company-wide performance against the approved operating plan for the prior fiscal year. The Compensation Committee also meets periodically to discuss compensation-related matters as they arise during the year.

With respect to executive compensation approved for the year 2025, the Compensation Committee based its decisions in part on comparative compensation market data provided by its independent compensation consultant, as more fully described below. The Compensation Committee also considered input provided by Mr. David Davis with respect to the compensation of our other NEOs. However, Mr. David Davis did not provide input for the Compensation Committee's determination of his own compensation. Decisions of our Compensation Committee pertaining to the compensation of our NEOs, and the Company's executive compensation programs are regularly reported to, and in some instances presented for approval by, the full Board.

#### Role of Compensation Consultants and Other Advisors
During fiscal year 2025, the Compensation Committee retained Lyons, Benenson & Company Inc. ("LB&Co.") as the Compensation Committee's independent compensation consultant to assist with Spirit's executive compensation program. The Compensation Committee also consulted with external legal counsel during 2025. Each year, the Compensation Committee evaluates the qualifications, performance, and independence of its compensation consultant and its external legal counsel. During 2025, the Compensation Committee reviewed information regarding the independence and potential conflicts of interest of the compensation consultant and its external legal counsel. The Compensation Committee members took into account, among other things, the factors enumerated by the SEC and the NYSE American for evaluating compensation advisor independence and concluded that compensation consultant and the Compensation Committee's external legal advisor are independent and that no conflict of interest currently exists. Representatives of the compensation consultant and external legal counsel have direct access to Compensation Committee members (and vice versa) without management involvement. The Compensation Committee has sole authority to replace its compensation consultant and/or external legal counsel from time to time and to hire additional consultants and external legal counsel at any time.

LB&Co worked closely with the Compensation Committee in fiscal year 2025 to determine an appropriate executive compensation strategy that supports our core business objectives: maintaining low costs, profitable growth, safe and reliable operations, sound cash flow and long-term value creation. In considering approaches to executive compensation, the Compensation Committee continuously reviews ways to strengthen the alignment of management's interests with the interests of stockholders, strengthen the Company's ability to attract, motivate and retain key executive talent, and design plans that account for the relatively high volatility and cyclicality of our industry.

In addition, in 2025, the Compensation Committee retained FTI Consulting ("FTI") to assist with a comprehensive review of Spirit's executive compensation program. FTI worked closely with the Compensation Committee with respect to the Company's incentive and retention programs in order to help motivate and retain the Company's key employees. During fiscal year 2025, FTI's fees were approximately $300,000 for the executive compensation consulting services it provided to the Compensation Committee. In addition, in 2025, the Company FTI to provide consulting services in connection with the Company's restructuring efforts. During fiscal year 2025, FTI's fees were approximately $17 million for these restructuring services. In connection with FTI's retention to provide compensation consulting services, the Compensation Committee conducted an assessment of potential conflicts of interest of FTI, considering various factors including but not limited to the six factors mandated by the SEC rules, and no conflicts of interest relating to its services were identified.

#### Setting Executive Compensation: Comparative Compensation Market Data and Peer Group
The Compensation Committee believes that, to keep the Company's executive compensation program competitive, the target value of each element of compensation should approximate our Compensation Peer Group ("CPG"). In addition, the Compensation Committee uses general industry market data with revenues approximating the revenues of the Company to gain insight into general compensation trends, and annually evaluates each compensation element relative to the market for each officer's role. The Compensation Committee considers peer group benchmarking and other market compensation data as critical inputs, but not the sole factors in the overall assessment of competitiveness of our executive compensation program, and individual compensation may vary from market median benchmarks based on the Compensation Committee's assessment of other factors that it considers relevant, including complexity of the functions the officer oversees, job scope, individual performance, retention risk and internal pay equity.

The Compensation Committee referred to a peer group of comparable companies that is representative of both the competitive landscape and the marketplace for executive talent when setting compensation following the Company's emergence from bankruptcy in 2025. With the assistance of LB&Co., the Compensation Committee reviewed the industry classifications of potential peers as well as certain financial data, including revenue and EBITDA, current market cap, and total enterprise value. Our peer group was selected to include companies that are representative of the sector in which we operate and our competitive talent marketplace, which extends beyond the airline industry. Our CPG consists of the following companies:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| COMPENSATION PEER GROUP\* | COMPENSATION PEER GROUP\* | COMPENSATION PEER GROUP\* |
| Alaska Air Group (ALK) | SkyWest (SKYW) | Marriott International (MAR) |
| Allegiant Travel Co. (ALGT) | Southwest Airlines (LUV) | Marriott Vacations Worldwide (VAC) |
| American Airlines (AAL) | Sun Country Airlines (SNCY) | Norwegian Cruise Line (NCLH) |
| Frontier Grp Holdings (ULCC) | United Airlines (UAL) | Royal Caribbean (RCL) |
| JetBlue Airways (JBLU) | Forward Air Corporation (FWRD) | Travel & Leisure Co. (TNL) |
| Delta Air Lines (DAL) | Hilton Grand Vacations (HGV) | Wyndham Hotels (WH) |
|  | Hilton Worldwide Holdings (HLT) | Avis Budget (CAR) |
|  | Hyatt Hotels (H) | Hertz (HTZ) |

---

\* CPG is limited to publicly traded companies incorporated in the U.S.

The Company draws executive talent not only from the airline industry, but also from a broader marketplace that includes hospitality and logistics companies and Florida-based companies. This CPG allows us to better evaluate our executive compensation practices in comparison to the true talent market with which we compete and companies that operate in similar business and market conditions.

Within this general framework, the Compensation Committee has approved the following compensation elements for our NEOs for 2025 based on our objectives and unique business model as well as the environment in which we were operating in 2025, each of which is described in greater detail below under "Elements of Executive Compensation Program":

• **Base Salary:** Determined based on scope of responsibility, experience, and performance. It is set at a competitive level based on market median to attract and retain high-performing and experienced leaders.

• **Short-Term Incentive:** In order to appropriately reward achievement of our annual business and financial objectives, target short-term incentives are set at market median levels.

• **Long-Term Incentive:** To incentivize profitable longer-term growth, increase alignment with stockholder interests and provide for retention of key talent, target long-term incentives are set at market median levels.

• **Benefits and Perquisites:** In order to recruit and retain the executive talent, we provide benefits and perquisites that are consistent with market practice.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
• **Retention:** On August 29, 2025, in recognition of the 2025 Bankruptcy, the Company entered into Retention Agreements (as defined below) with each of the NEOs (other than Mr. Christie) pursuant to which such NEO would receive a one-time prepaid cash retention award (the "Retention Award") that would be subject to repayment upon the NEO's termination of employment for "cause" or resignation without "good reason" prior to the earlier of (i) the one-year anniversary of the effective date of the Retention Agreement, (ii) the date that is 90 days following the date of a "change in control" (as defined in the Retention Agreement), and (iii) the date that is 90 days following the date that the Company emerges from its restructuring pursuant to Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The Retention Agreements were intended to promote stability in our management team during the period of uncertainty associated with the Restructuring.

#### Elements of Executive Compensation Program
Set forth below is a discussion of the elements of our executive compensation program, the reason that we provide each element, and how that element fits into our overall compensation philosophy. We are continuing to build our executive compensation program around each of the below elements because they are, both individually and collectively, useful in achieving one or more of the objectives of the program.

**1. Base Salary.** We provide our NEOs and other employees with a base salary to compensate them for services rendered during the year and to provide them with a minimum level of guaranteed pay. The base salary payable to each NEO is intended to provide a fixed component of compensation reflecting the executive's skill set, experience, role and responsibilities. Base salary amounts are established based on consideration of, among other factors, the scope of the NEOs' responsibilities, ability to contribute to the Company's success, years of service and individual job performance and the Compensation Committee's general knowledge of the competitive market, based on, among other things, experience with other companies and our industry and market data provided by our independent compensation consultant, as discussed above under "Setting Executive Compensation: Comparative Compensation Market Data and Peer Group." Effective January 1, 2026, our NEOs' agreed to a reduction in their base salary in connection with an agreement reached by the Company with the Air Line Pilots Association ("ALPA") representing the Company's Pilots. The base salary reductions were made at a percentage not less than the Pilot group's reduction upon ratification of the agreement with ALPA.

The table below sets forth, for each NEO, such NEO's base salary for fiscal year 2024, base salary for fiscal year 2025 and the percentage increase in such NEO's base salary.

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Named Executive Officers** | **2024 Annual Base**<br>**Salary ($)** | **2025 Annual Base**<br>**Salary ($)** | **Increase %** |
|  David Davis | N/A | 950000 | N/A |
|  Frederick S. Cromer | 610000 | 610000 | 0% |
|  John Bendoraitis | 650000 | 650000 | 0% |
|  Thomas C. Canfield\* | 525000 | 610000 | 16% |
|  Arijit R. Ghosh | N/A | 500000 | N/A |
|  Edward M. Christie III\*\* | 950000 | 950000 | 0% |

---

*\** *Effective July 21, 2025, Thomas C. Canfield was promoted from Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary to Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, and in connection with his promotion, Mr. Canfield's base salary increased from $525,000 to $610,000.* 

*\*\** *Mr. Christie resigned effective as of April 6, 2025, and did not receive any adjustments in his base salary.* 

The NEOs' 2025 base salaries are set forth in the "Summary Compensation Table" below, and are prorated, when applicable, to reflect the increases described above.

**2. Short-Term Cash Incentive Program (the "STI Plan").** 

#### Overview
Cash bonuses are intended to provide incentives to meet or exceed company-wide financial, operating performance and strategic objectives. Generally, all of our NEOs and other executive officers are eligible for annual cash bonuses, which are determined annually based on achievement of a set of pre-established financial and operational performance and strategic objective metrics. The purpose of continuing this design was to align the STI Plan for fiscal year 2025 with a more near-term business focus, improve management's line of sight to incentive awards and provide flexibility to shift focus during the course of the year as appropriate.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
Our STI Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee. Prior to each semi-annual measurement period, the Compensation Committee approves (i) the performance metrics; (ii) the weighting of the performance metrics; (iii) the threshold, target and stretch (maximum) performance levels for each metric and the percentage payouts for the performance levels (usually zero for less than threshold performance, 100% of target value for target performance and 200% of target value for stretch or maximum performance); and (iv) the target bonus opportunity for officer positions, expressed as a percentage of base salary. After the performance results are available (which, for fiscal year 2025, was after each semi-annual performance period), the specific bonus payments are calculated using the formula embodied in the STI Plan based on the extent to which the performance metric were achieved during the relevant measurement period, and may include discretionary adjustments or reductions as the Compensation Committee may determine based on individual performance and other factors it deems relevant, including, but not limited to, the Company's safety performance and the impact of any unanticipated events. Any earned incentive bonuses are paid to executive officers following the end of the applicable measurement period, subject to continued employment through the payment date. Incentive bonuses for executives are subject to the terms and conditions of our 2025 Plan (as described below). Moreover, as described below, we maintain robust clawback policies covering incentive compensation (both cash and equity-based) paid to our executive officers to further align management with the interests of stockholders over the long term.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)

#### Performance Metrics
The following tables set forth the performance metrics and the weightings for each of the semi-annual performance periods under the 2025 STI Plan. In addition, the 2025 STIP Plan was subject to performance goal multiplier metrics, as described in more detail below.

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Metric** | **Weighting** | **Definition/Description** |
| Adjusted CASM ex-Fuel | 33.3% | Operating costs less fuel and special items per available seat mile, adjusted for stage length. |
| T:0 | 33.3% | T:0 measures our Turn Performance and is calculated by number of turns operated on time and number of operated turns. A turn (non-Fleet Launch) is considered operated on time if either, (i) the flight departs on time, or (ii) the turn takes less time than our Minimum Ground Time Standard. Cancellations are excluded from T:0. |
| D:0/A:0 NPS | 33.3% | On-time Departure & On-time Arrival Net Promoter Score Performance |

---

In setting the foregoing goals and corresponding payout levels, the Compensation Committee carefully considered and scrutinized certain industry data and the Company's past performance, and approved criteria which, while considered difficult to achieve, incentivizes our executive officers to deliver strong performance against our financial and operational objectives. As in prior years, the Compensation Committee also reserved discretion to reduce payouts in light of safety events occurring during the year and also to adjust for other factors it deems relevant in assessing actual performance in 2025 as compared to our 2025 operating plan.

#### 2025 STI Plan Payouts
Each NEO's target bonus opportunity and actual payout with respect to each measurement period under the 2025 STI Plan is set forth in the tables below, as well as the performance results for each of the applicable performance metrics on which such payouts were determined. Payment for the first measurement period under the 2025 STI Plan was made in July 2025.

The table below sets forth the Company's achievement of the applicable performance metrics for the first measurement period in 2025. While the performance metrics for the first measurement period under the 2025 STI Plan supported a payout of 124.6% of target, the Compensation Committee exercised its discretion to reduce such payouts such that the payments received under the 2025 STI Plan were 100% of target.

In August 2025, each of the NEOs forfeited payment of their second half 2025 STI Plan cash awards in connection with the receipt of the Retention Awards described below.

**3. Long-Term Incentives.** 

#### Overview
The equity-based awards granted to our NEOs are designed to incentivize demonstrable long-term Company performance by rewarding superior individual and Company performance, to align the NEOs' interest in building value with that of our stockholders by promoting long-term equity ownership and to enhance the retention of key senior management talent. All grants of equity awards are evidenced by an individual award agreement between the Company and the individual.

In setting the target value of our NEOs' long-term incentive awards, the Compensation Committee considers and generally follows target-pay positioning at the median. The Compensation Committee may adjust target grant date values for the NEOs based on the Compensation Committee's general assessment of the executive's ability to contribute to the Company's success, performance of job responsibilities and future potential.

On July 21, 2025, the Compensation Committee approved the grant of RSUs, PSUs and Performance Cash Awards (collectively, the "2025 Awards") to Messrs. Cromer, Bendoraitis, Canfield and Ghosh (together, the "2025 Awards"). The targeted grant date value of the 2025 Awards to our current NEOs are set forth in the table below. In addition, in connection with his appointment as CEO in April 2025, the Compensation Committee and the Board approved grants of RSUs and PSUs to Mr. Davis. The terms and conditions for such RSUs and PSUs were the same as those for the other NEOs as approved on July 21, 2025.

(1) Values set forth in this table represent the values approved by the Board or the Compensation Committee, as applicable. The values set forth herein may be different than those set forth in the Summary Compensation Table, Grants of Plan Based Awards Table and Outstanding Equity Awards Table due to different rules for calculating such RSUs and PSUs.

The following sets forth a summary of the vesting conditions for the RSUs, PSUs and Performance Cash Awards.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)

#### Restricted Stock Units (RSUs)
The RSUs will vest in equal annual installments on each of the first three anniversaries of April 1, 2025 (other than Mr. David Davis' RSUs that vest on each of the first three anniversaries of April 21, 2025), subject to the NEO's continued employment through each vesting date. In the event the NEO's employment is terminated by the Company without "cause" or due to their death or "disability" (as such term is defined in the Incentive Plan), the next regularly scheduled installment of RSUs that would have otherwise vested but for such termination of service will automatically vest in full as of the date of such termination of service. Upon a "change in control" (as defined in the Incentive Plan), in the event the successor entity (or its parent) assumes or substitutes the RSUs, the RSUs will thereafter remain outstanding and eligible to vest in accordance with the original vesting schedule. However, in the event of the NEO's termination of service by the Company (or its successor) without cause or resignation for "good reason" (as defined in the 2025 Severance Plan (as defined below)), the RSUs will fully vest as of the date of such termination of service. If the successor entity (or its parent) in the change in control fails to assume or substitute the RSUs in connection with the change in control, the RSUs will automatically vest in full as of immediately prior to the consummation of such change in control.

#### Performance Stock Units (PSUs)
The PSUs will be earned and vest on April 1, 2028 (other than Mr. David Davis' PSUs that will be earned and vest on April 21, 2028), subject to (i) the NEO's continued employment through such date and (ii) the level of achievement of an equity valuation growth performance goal. The performance goal will be achieved between 0% and 100% based on the level of increase in the Company's equity value performance goals measured as of April, 2028 (or, if earlier, the date of a change in control). The equity value performance goals are as follows: 0% of the PSUs vesting at a 1.25X Equity Growth multiple and 100% vesting at a 3.25X or greater Equity Growth multiple, with linear interpolation between 1.25X to 3.25X. In the event the NEO's employment is terminated by the Company without cause or due to death or disability, a pro-rated portion of the PSUs will be eligible to vest as of the last day of the performance period, based on the actual level of achievement of the applicable performance goal. Upon a change in control, in the event the successor entity (or its parent) assumes or substitutes the PSUs, the earned PSUs (measured as of the date of the change in control) will thereafter remain outstanding and eligible to vest on April, 2028; provided, however, in the event of the NEO's termination of service due to death or disability, by the Company (or its successor) without cause or by the NEO for good reason, the earned PSUs will vest as of the date of such termination of service. If the successor entity (or its parent) in the change in control fails to assume or substitute the PSUs in connection with the change in control, the earned PSUs (measured as of the date of the change in control) will automatically vest as to service as of immediately prior to the consummation of such change in control.

#### Performance Cash Awards
The Performance Cash Awards will be earned and vest as follows: (i) 50% of the Performance Cash Award will be earned and vest based on the level of achievement of specified annual performance goals for the period from April 1, 2025 to March 31, 2026 and (ii) the remaining 50% of the award will be earned and vest based on the level of achievement of specified annual performance goals for the period from April 1, 2026 to March 31, 2027, in each case subject to the NEO's continued employment through the last day of the applicable performance period. In addition, in the event that the first installment of the Performance Cash Award is not fully earned based on the level of achievement of the annual performance goals during the first performance period, the first installment may still be fully earned based on the level of achievement of the cumulative two-year performance goals, subject to continued employment through the end of such period (a "catch-up" payment). The performance goals applicable to the Performance Cash Awards were not finally approved by the Committee prior to the date of the 2025 Bankruptcy filing. In the event the NEO's employment is terminated without cause or due to death or disability, a pro-rata portion of the Performance Cash Award will be eligible to vest based upon achievement of the performance goals, except that if such termination occurs prior to April 1, 2026, then such pro-rata portion will not include the second installment of the Performance Cash Award or any "catch-up" payment. Upon a change in control, in the event a successor entity (or its parent) assumes or substitutes the Performance Cash Award, (i) the performance goals for each performance period that has not yet been completed as of the date of such change in control will be deemed achieved at the target performance level (100%) and (ii) the Performance Cash Award will remain outstanding and eligible to vest on the last date of each applicable performance period as originally scheduled; *provided*, *however*, in the event of the NEO's termination of service by the Company (or its successor) without cause or by the NEO for good reason, the Performance Cash Award will fully vest and become payable as of the date of such termination of service. In the event a successor entity (or its parent) in the change in control fails to assume or substitute the Performance Cash Award, the Performance Cash Award will automatically vest in full (with the performance goals deemed achieved at the target performance level 100%).

*Adoption of the 2025 Incentive Award Plan* 

On April 16, 2025, the Board approved and adopted the Spirit Aviation Holdings, Inc. 2025 Incentive Award Plan (the "2025 Plan"), which provides for the grant of grant equity-based incentive awards (including restricted stock units, performance stock units, performance shares, stock options and other equity or equity-based awards) to eligible employees, consultants or non-employee directors of the Company, including the NEOs. The 2025 Plan will be administered by the Compensation Committee. The 2025 Plan has a term of ten years (unless terminated earlier by the Board in accordance with the terms of the 2025 Plan).

The aggregate number of shares of common stock of the Company that may be issued pursuant to awards under the 2025 Plan is 4,032,258 shares, subject to equitable adjustment in the event of certain changes in the Company's capitalization or the occurrence of certain corporate events. Any shares underlying an award that expires, is forfeited, is repurchased, or lapses for any reason, is settled in cash without the delivery of shares, and any shares withheld by, or otherwise remitted to, the Company to satisfy any exercise price or tax withholding obligations in respect of an award, in each case will again be available for the grant under the 2025 Plan.

**5.** **Retention Bonuses** 

On August 29, 2025, the Company entered into retention award agreements (the "Retention Agreements") with each of our NEOs (other than Mr. Christie), pursuant to which the NEOs received payment of one-time cash retention awards (the "Retention Awards") in the aggregate amounts set forth in the table below. Pursuant to the terms of each Retention Agreement, if the NEO ceases to be actively employed by the Company in good standing prior to the earliest to occur of (i) the one year anniversary of the effective date of the Retention Agreement, (ii) the date that is 90 days following the date of a "change in control" (as defined in the Retention Agreement) and (iii) the date that is 90 days following the date that the Company emerges from its restructuring pursuant to Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, the named executive officer is required to repay to the Company the Retention Award (on a post-tax basis) within 10 days following such termination, except if the NEO's employment terminates due to death or "disability," by the Company without "cause" or due to the executive's resignation for "good reason" (each as defined in the Retention Agreement).

In addition, pursuant to the Retention Agreement entered into with David Davis, President & Chief Executive Officer of the Company, the second installment of the sign-on bonus payment payable to Mr. Davis pursuant to Davis Employment Agreement (as defined below), the amount of which was previously transferred by the Company to a third-party escrow fund in April 2025, was disbursed to Mr. Davis as of the date of the Retention Agreement. Under the Retention Agreement, this second installment of the sign-on bonus will be subject to repayment to the Company on the same terms as Mr. Davis's Retention Award.

Pursuant to the Retention Agreements, each of the named executive officers has agreed that they shall have no further rights to participate in, or otherwise receive any payments under, the Company's short-term cash incentive program for 2025. In addition, Mr. Davis has agreed that he shall have no further rights or entitlements to receive his prorated annual short term incentive for 2025 nor the existing $4.0 million retention incentive payable to Mr. Davis in certain circumstances under the Davis Employment Agreement.

**6.** **Benefits .** We provide the following benefits to our NEOs (and provide similar benefits to all our employees):

• medical, dental and vision insurance;

• life insurance, accidental death and dismemberment and business travel and accident insurance;

• employee assistance program;

• health and dependent care flexible spending accounts;

• short and long-term disability; and

• 401(k) plan.

In addition, we also provide:

• supplemental life insurance to our employees at the director level and above, including our officers;

• annual Executive Physical to our officers; and

• retiree Travel Benefit for our officers.

#### Additional Compensation Information
**1.** **Change in Control-Based Compensation.** 

**Severance.** All of our NEOs other than Mr. Davis (who is subject to the Davis Employment Agreement (as defined below in the section titled "Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table and Grants of Plan-Based Awards Employment Agreements and Offer Letters") are covered by the Company's 2025 executive severance plan (the "2025 Executive Severance Plan"), which was adopted on July 21, 2025 by the Board on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee. Pursuant to the 2025 Executive Severance Plan and subject to an exception applicable only to Mr. Davis as noted below, each executive who holds a senior vice president or higher position is entitled to receive, in each case, conditioned upon the executive officer's execution and non-revocation of are lease of claims, and continued compliance with any applicable restrictive covenant:

(a) in the event of an involuntary termination by the Company without cause unrelated to a change in control, (i) a cash severance amount equal to 100% of his or her annual base salary for the year of termination, payable in equal installments over twelve months, (ii) continuation of COBRA coverage for twelve months, (iii) a free family travel pass on our flights for twelve months and (iv) the use of a Company-owned mobile phone for up to thirty days; and

(b) in the event of an involuntary termination by the Company without cause or a voluntary termination by the executive for good reason, in each case occurring within eighteen months following a change in control (i) a cash severance amount equal to two times the sum of his or her annual base salary for the year of termination plus his or her target incentive bonus for the year of termination, payable in equal installments over twenty four months, (ii) his or her incentive bonus for the year of termination, prorated from the beginning of the year to the date of termination based on actual incentive plan performance as of the date of termination, (iii) outplacement services not to exceed $10,000, (iv) a continuation of COBRA coverage for twelve months, (v) a free family travel pass on our flights for twelve months and (vi) the use of a Company-owned mobile phone for up to thirty days.

Prior to the adoption of the 2025 Executive Severance Plan, the Company had established the Company's 2017 executive severance plan (the "2017 Executive Severance Plan"). The compensation and benefits provided under the 2017 Executive Severance Plan, and the requirements imposed thereunder, were substantially similar to those provided under the 2025 Executive Severance Plan. The 2017 Executive Severance Plan remained in place following the Company's emergence from the 2024 Bankruptcy. On March 31, 2026, the Company filed a Notice of Rejection of the 2017 Executive Severance Plan in the 2025 Bankruptcy Proceeding; therefore, the 2017 Executive Severance Plan no longer remains in effect as of the date of this filing.

As for severance and other benefits under the 2025 Executive Severance Plan that (i) constitute "parachute payments" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code ("280G Payments"), and (ii) would otherwise be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the "Excise Tax"), then the 280G Payments will be either: (i) delivered in full, or (ii) delivered as to such lesser extent which would result in no portion of such benefits being subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, results in the receipt by the executive officer on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of benefits, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such benefits may be taxable under Section 4999 of the Code. The Company is not required to provide "gross-ups" for any excise taxes.

Under the Davis Employment Agreement, in the event Mr. Davis's employment is terminated by the Company without "cause" or Mr. Davis resigns for "good reason", in each case during the term of the Davis Employment Agreement, then, subject to his execution and non-revocation of a release of claims and continued compliance with his restrictive covenant obligations under the Davis Employment Agreement, Mr. Davis will be entitled to receive (i) a lump sum cash severance payment in an amount equal to 2.0x the sum of his base salary and target annual bonus opportunity (or, 3.0x, if such termination occurs within 12 months following a "change of control") and (ii) subsidized COBRA continuation coverage for a period of 24 months (or, 36 months, if such termination occurs within 12 months following a "change of control"). Mr. Davis will not be eligible to receive severance payments or benefits under any severance plan or program maintained by the Company.

2. Mr. Davis's Sign-on and Inducement Awards

In connection with his appointment as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, on April 17, 2025, pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement, Mr. Davis received inducement cash sign-on bonus in the aggregate amount of $4,000,000, which was payable two equal installments, with the first installment paid on his start date and the second installment held in escrow and paid on the first anniversary of his start date, subject to his continued employment through such date (or, if earlier, the occurrence of a "change of control" of the Company or the termination of Mr. Davis's employment by the Company without "cause" or his resignation for "good reason" (as such terms are defined in the Davis Employment Agreement). Each installment is subject to repayment by Mr. Davis (net of taxes), on a pro-rated monthly basis, if, during the 12-month period following the payment of such installment, his employment is terminated by the Company for "cause", he resigns without "good reason" or he breaches his restrictive covenant obligations under his employment agreement. As described above, in connection with the entry into the Retention Agreement, the second installment of his sign-on bonus was disbursed from the escrow to Mr. Davis in August 2025.

In addition, under his employment agreement, Mr. Davis was eligible to receive a one-time cash retention bonus that was scheduled to vest and become payable on the fifth anniversary of his start date, subject generally to his continued employment through such date. However, as described above, pursuant to this Retention Agreement, Mr. Davis has agreed that he shall have no further rights or entitlements to this retention payment.

**3.** **Limited Perquisites.** 

**Post-Employment Flight Benefits**: A senior executive who retires from Spirit will be eligible to receive the "Officer Retiree Travel" benefit as described below. The value of such flight benefits will be reported as taxable income and the value of the free travel provided during any calendar year would be subject to an aggregate cap of $10,000. Notwithstanding the eligibility criteria noted below, to receive this benefit, the senior executive's service as an officer of the Company must have ended on or after January 13, 2022:

(1) A senior executive who served five years as an officer of the Company and has a minimum of ten years of service with the Company, will receive unlimited positive space travel privileges for the former officer and, until the death of the former officer, for his or her spouse or designated travel companion and dependent children.

(2) A senior executive who served less than five years as an officer but has a minimum of ten years of service with the Company, will receive unlimited positive-space air travel for the former officer and his or her spouse or designated travel companion and dependent children, for the number of years for which he or she served as an officer. After completion of this term, the former officer may be eligible for lifetime unlimited standby travel if his or her years of service plus the age at the time of retirement is greater than 65 with a minimum of ten years of service.

**4.** **Clawback Policies.** 

On April 25, 2025, the Compensation Committee adopted, and the Board ratified, a clawback policy in compliance with Section 10D of the Securities Exchange Act and the New York Stock Exchange listing standards (the "Dodd-Frank Clawback Policy"). Under the Dodd-Frank Clawback Policy, the Company is required to recoup certain incentive-based compensation (whether cash- or equity-based) from its current or former executive officers in the event that the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to the material noncompliance of the Company with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, without regard to any misconduct on the part of the executive and subject to certain limited exceptions. The Company's Dodd-Frank Clawback Policy applies to incentive-based compensation received by current and former executive officers of the Company during the three fiscal years preceding an accounting restatement and after the effective date of the NYSE American listing standards, which was October 2, 2023.

In April 2025, with input from its independent legal advisor, the Compensation Committee adopted, and the Board ratified, a supplemental discretionary clawback policy (the "Discretionary Clawback Policy") that allows the Company to seek recoupment of any type of incentive compensation from our executive officers and a broader group of employees, even when a mandatory recoupment is not required under the Dodd-Frank Clawback Policy. Under the Discretionary Clawback Policy, the Company may, but is not required to, seek recoupment of incentive compensation (whether cash- or equity-based, and whether time- or performance-based) paid to any of its current or former executive officers or employees at the director level or above in scenarios involving, among other circumstances, (i) a miscalculation or misreporting of financial or operating results or other performance metric criteria, whether or not the employee from which the Company is seeking recoupment was responsible, (ii) knowing or intentional alteration of financial results or operating metrics, even if no accounting statement was required, (iii) fraud, misrepresentation or a material error that causes significant reputational or financial harm to the Company, (iv) a willful or knowing violation of applicable law and (v) a material breach of any applicable restrictive covenant. The Discretionary Clawback Policy applies to all incentive compensation approved, granted or awarded on or after October 2, 2023.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
In addition, the Company's equity incentive plans and the award agreements applicable to awards granted thereunder incorporate the provisions of any clawback policies maintained by the Company from time to time, and contain additional clawback provisions providing for the termination and forfeiture of outstanding incentive compensation awards and recoupment of any proceeds, gains or other economic benefit actually or constructively received in respect of such awards, in each case, where the employee has engaged in any activity in competition with the Company, or which is inimical, contrary or harmful to the interests of the Company, as determined by the Compensation Committee, or upon the termination of the employee's employment by the Company for "cause" (as defined in the applicable award agreement).

Taken together, all of the Company's clawback rights and remedies are believed to be consistent with best corporate governance practices.

**5.** **Tax and Accounting Considerations.** 

The Board and the Compensation Committee generally consider the financial accounting and tax implications of their executive compensation decisions. Section 162(m) of the Code generally limits the tax deductibility of annual compensation paid by public companies for certain executive officers to $1 million.

Our Compensation Committee does not believe that compensation decisions should be determined solely by how much compensation is deductible for federal income tax purposes. As a result, our Compensation Committee has authorized non-deductible compensation and reserves its right to, and retains the discretion to, authorize payments that may not be deductible if it believes that such payments are in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. Moreover, further changes in applicable tax laws and regulations as well as factors beyond the control of the Compensation Committee can adversely impact the deductibility of compensation paid to our executive officers.

#### Compensation Risk Assessment
The Compensation Committee agreed with management findings that our compensation policies and practices do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us.

In April 2025, the Compensation Committee was presented with the results of management's analysis on our compensation policies and practices for our employees to determine if these policies and practices give rise to risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us or encourage our employees to take excessive risks in order to receive larger awards.

This risk assessment process included a review by management of our compensation policies and practices and identification of risks and risk controls related to the programs. Although management reviewed all compensation programs, it focused on the programs with variability of payout, which means the participant is able to directly affect payout. Management assessed our compensation programs against potential compensation risks relating to pay mix, performance metrics, payment timing and adjustments, equity incentives, performance appraisals, and leadership and culture.

In reaching its conclusion that our compensation policies and practices do not give rise to risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us or encourage our employees to take excessive risks in order to receive larger awards, management considered the following:

• For most of our employees, cash compensation is fixed in the form of base salaries or hourly cash compensation. For our officers and director-level employees, the majority of cash compensation is also fixed in the form of base salaries. Fixed compensation in the form of base salaries or hourly compensation provide income regardless of our short-term performance and do not create an incentive for employees to take unnecessary risks.

• In evaluating our performance for purposes of our cash incentive plans, the Compensation Committee reviews our performance under a mix of financial and operating measures to provide a balanced perspective.

• The Compensation Committee generally exercises broad discretion in determining compensation amounts, and qualitative factors beyond quantitative financial and operating metrics are a key consideration in the determination of individual cash bonuses and long-term equity awards.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
• The financial opportunity in our long-term incentive program is best realized through long-term appreciation of our stock price, which mitigates excessive short-term risk-taking. Annual equity-based awards vest over multiple years, in the case of restricted stock units or restricted shares, or are settled in a single payment after three years, in the case of our PSUs, in each case subject to the holder's continuing service with us. This promotes alignment of our employees' interests with our long-term objectives and interests and with stockholders' interests.

• The following risk mitigating controls: (i) stock ownership guidelines for non-employee directors and executive officers; (ii) code of business conduct and ethics and anti-hedging and anti-pledging policy applicable to NEOs and members of the Board; (iii) clawback policy on compensation to executive officers; (iv) basing our short term incentive plan on more than one performance measurement, including both financial and operational metrics; (v) periodic review of our compensation policies and programs by the Company's internal audit group; (vi) using different performance metrics for our long-term incentive PSUs; (vii) overlapping the performance periods for our long-term incentive PSUs; and (viii) using our internal audit group and our independent consultants to review calculations of short-term and long-term incentive payouts.

• We maintain caps on the maximum payouts under our short-term incentive plan and our long-term incentive PSUs.

• We utilize individual performance assessments in determining executive compensation. These assessments take into account whether or not the individual's behavior was consistent with our code of business conduct and ethics and with our ethics-based corporate culture.

(2) Reflects amounts received by the NEOs in fiscal year 2025, prorated to reflect any increases in base salary or, for Messrs. Davis and Christie, the portion of the year the NEO was employed by the Company.

(3) Amounts shown in the "Bonus" column represent (i) for Mr. Davis, the portion of his inducement cash sign-on bonus received in fiscal year 2025 and (ii) for Messrs. Davis, Cromer, Bendoraitis, Canfield and Ghosh, the amount of the Retention Award in the amounts disclosed above under the "Compensation Discussion and Analysis-Elements of Executive Compensation Program-Retention Bonuses" section. With respect to Mr. Davis, in connection with his receipt of the Retention Award, the Company also settled the second payment of Mr. Davis's inducement cash sign-on bonus. With respect to the Retention Awards, if the NEO ceases to be actively employed by the Company in good standing prior to the earliest to occur of (i) the one year anniversary of the effective date of the Retention Agreement, (ii) the date that is 90 days following the date of a "change in control" (as defined in the Retention Agreement) and (iii) the date that is 90 days following the date that the Company emerges from its restructuring pursuant to Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, the NEO is required to repay to the Company the Retention Award (on a post-tax basis) within 10 days following such termination, except if the NEO's employment terminates due to death or "disability," by the Company without "cause" or due to the executive's resignation for "good reason" (each as defined in the Retention Agreement).

(4) Amounts shown in the "Stock Awards" column represent the aggregate grant date fair value of the RSUs and PSUs granted to our NEOs in fiscal year 2025, as indicated and computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, excluding the effect of estimated forfeitures. RSUs vest in three equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of April 2025. PSUs will be earned and vest in April 2028, subject to (i) the NEO's continued employment through such date and (ii) the level of achievement of an equity valuation growth performance goal. The performance goal will be achieved between 0% and 100% based on the level of increase in the Company's equity valuation, measured as of April 2028 (or, if earlier, the date of a change in control). Assuming the maximum level of performance is achieved, the grant date fair value of the PSUs reflected in this column would be as follows: (i) Mr. Davis, $3,036,292; (ii) Mr. Cromer, $156,437; (iii) Mr. Bendoraitis, $156,437; (iv) Mr. Canfield, $156,437 and (v) Mr. Ghosh, $78,218.

#### Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table and Grants of Plan-Based Awards
*Employment Agreements and Offer Letters* 

**David M. Davis.** In connection with Mr. Davis's appointment as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Davis, which generally provides for a three-year term of employment with the Company (the "Davis Employment Agreement"). Pursuant to the Davis Employment Agreement, during the term of his employment, Mr. Davis will be entitled to receive (i) an annual base salary of $950,000, (ii) a target annual cash bonus opportunity of 125% of his annual base salary (with a maximum bonus payout of 250% of base salary), with the actual amount of his annual bonus, if any, determined by the Board based on the level of attainment of individual and Company performance objectives, (iii) participation in company benefit plans, including positive-space travel benefits for Mr. Davis and his eligible family members and designees in accordance with Company policy and the terms of the Davis Employment Agreement and (iv) reimbursement for reasonable business and moving expenses and legal fees incurred in connection with the negotiation and entry into the Davis Employment Agreement.

In addition, Mr. Davis was entitled to receive an inducement cash sign-on bonus in the aggregate amount of $4,000,000, which will be paid in two equal installments, with the first installment paid on his start date and the second installment held in escrow and paid on the first anniversary of his start date, subject to his continued employment through such date (or, if earlier, the occurrence of a "change of control" of the Company or the termination of Mr. Davis's employment by the Company without "cause" or his resignation for "good reason" (as such terms are defined in the Davis Employment Agreement). Each installment is subject to repayment by Mr. Davis (net of taxes), on a pro-rated monthly basis, if, during the 12-month period following the payment of such installment, his employment is terminated by the Company for "cause", he resigns without "good reason" or he breaches his restrictive covenant obligations under the Davis Employment Agreement. In connection with the Retention Award, Mr. Davis received payment of the second installment of the sign-on bonus, subject to clawback in the event of a termination of employment by the Company for "cause", resignation for "good reason" or restrictive covenant breach on such terms as set forth in the Retention Agreement.

Mr. Davis was also entitled to receive a one-time cash retention bonus of $4,000,000 that will vest and become payable on the fifth anniversary of his start date, subject to his continued employment through such date, except that if his employment is terminated by the Company without "cause" or Mr. Davis resigns for "good reason" prior to the retention date, then he will be entitled to receive the retention bonus within 60 days of his termination date, subject to his execution and non-revocation of a release of claims and continued compliance with his restrictive covenant obligations under the Davis Employment Agreement. In connection with the Retention Award, Mr. Davis forfeited payment of the one-time cash retention bonus.

On Mr. Davis's start date, he was granted a one-time inducement award of 403,226 RSUs under the 2025 Plan (as described in more detail below). In addition, Mr. Davis was also granted an initial award under the 2025 Plan, split 50% in the form of time-based RSUs (403,226 RSUs) and 50% in the form of PSUs (403,226 PSUs). The above-described RSUs will generally vest in equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of Mr. Davis's start date, subject to his continued employment through each such date (subject to acceleration upon an earlier qualifying termination of employment as set forth in the Davis Employment Agreement). The PSUs will be earned and vest on the third anniversary of his start date, subject to Mr. Davis's continued employment through such date (subject to acceleration as to service upon an earlier qualifying termination of employment as set forth in the Davis Employment Agreement) and the level of achievement of an equity valuation growth performance goal. The performance goal will be achieved between 0% and 100% based on the level of increase in the Company's equity valuation, measured at the end of a three-year performance period (or, if earlier, the date of a change of control of the Company).

In the event Mr. Davis's employment is terminated by the Company without "cause" or Mr. Davis resigns for "good reason", in each case during the term of the Davis Employment Agreement, then, subject to his execution and non-revocation of a release of claims and continued compliance with his restrictive covenant obligations under the Davis Employment Agreement, Mr. Davis will be entitled to receive (i) a lump sum cash severance payment in an amount equal to 2.0x the sum of his base salary and target annual bonus opportunity (or, 3.0x, if such termination occurs within 12 months following a "change of control") and (ii) subsidized COBRA continuation coverage for a period of 24 months (or, 36 months, if such termination occurs within 12 months following a "change of control"). Mr. Davis will not be eligible to receive severance payments or benefits under any severance plan or program maintained by the Company.

*Restrictive Covenants* 

The Davis Employment Agreement contains non-competition and non-solicitation provisions that cover the period during which Mr. Davis is employed by the Company and the period of Mr. Davis's service on the Board (or, with respect to the non-solicitation, the longer of twelve months following the termination of his employment and during the period of Mr. Davis's service on the Board), as well as perpetual confidentiality and mutual nondisparagement provisions. Mr. Cromer's offer letter with the Company contains non-solicitation provisions that cover the period during which he is employed with the Company and twelve months following the termination of employment for any reason, along with a perpetual non-disparagement provision. If the NEO violates one of these covenants, the Company has the discretion under the equity incentive plan (including the award agreements thereunder) and its discretionary clawback policy to recover and/or otherwise require the forfeiture or disgorgement of any cash- or equity-based incentive compensation previously granted to such NEO (including gains on the sale of the stock, if any).

The Company's 2025 Executive Severance Plan contains non-solicitation provisions that cover the longer of (i) the period ending on the first anniversary of the NEO's termination of employment or (ii) the period over which the NEO is entitled to receive cash severance payments pursuant to the Company's 2025 Executive Severance Plan, as well as a perpetual confidentiality and non-disparagement provision.

*Equity Incentive Plan Awards* 

As described in the CD&A above, on April 16, 2025, the Board approved and adopted the 2025 Plan, which provides for the grant of equity-based incentive awards (including restricted stock units, performance stock units, performance shares, stock options and other equity or equity-based awards) to eligible employees, consultants or non-employee directors of the Company, including the NEOs. The 2025 Plan supersedes and replaces the Equity Incentive Plans.

Each grant of RSUs and PSUs, and each long-term performance-based cash award, to our NEOs is governed by our 2025 Plan and the applicable award agreement thereunder, which specify, among other things, the vesting provisions of such awards and any applicable performance conditions. For a more detailed discussion of the vesting provisions and performance conditions applicable to the long-term incentive awards granted to our NEOs, see "Compensation Discussion and Analysis-Elements of Executive Compensation Program-Long-Term Incentives" and the "Grants of Plan-Based Awards in 2025" table above.

The information below describes and quantifies certain compensation and benefits that would have become payable to each of our NEOs if our NEO's employment had terminated on December 31, 2025 as a result of each of the termination scenarios described below, taking into account the NEO's compensation as of that date. In the case of Mr. Christie, the table below captures the amounts actually received in connection with his termination of employment on April 6, 2025. For a description of the actual severance payments and benefits provided to Mr. Christie in connection with his departure from the Company in April 2025, see "Mr. Christie's Separation Agreement" below the following table. The market value of shares or units that would have vested as of December 31, 2025 is calculated based on the closing price of our common stock as of December 31, 2025, which was $0.25.

(1) The Bankruptcy Code limits payments relating to severance to insiders during the pendency of a bankruptcy proceeding. For purposes of this disclosure, we have reported the full amount of the severance that otherwise would have been received on December 31, 2025. The amounts in this column generally represent, for each NEO in the order presented, the aggregate value of the cash severance payments that each NEO is entitled to receive pursuant to:

a. the 2025 Executive Severance Plan (and, solely with respect to Mr. Davis, pursuant to the Davis Employment Agreement) upon termination of the NEO's employment by the Company without cause (as defined in the 2025 Executive Severance Plan or the Davis Employment Agreement) ()"**Termination without Cause** "). In such case, the amount shown for each NEO represents a cash severance amount equal to (i) for Messrs. Cromer, Bendoraitis, Canfield and Ghosh, the NEO's base salary as in effect on the termination date payable in equal installments over a twelve-month period pursuant to the 2025 Executive Severance Plan, (ii) for Mr. Davis, 200% of his base salary payable in equal instalments over a twelve-month period pursuant to the terms of the Davis Employment Agreement; and

b. the 2025 Executive Severance Plan (and, solely with respect to Mr. Davis, pursuant to the Davis Employment Agreement) upon a termination of the NEO's employment by the Company without "cause" or resignation by the NEO for "good reason" (as defined in the 2025 Executive Severance Plan or the Davis Employment Agreement), in either such case, occurring within eighteen months following a change in control (or, for Mr. Davis, twelve months) (each, a "**Qualifying Termination** "). In such case, the amount shown for each NEO represents the amount payable under the 2025 Executive Severance Plan in the event of such Qualifying Termination, and includes (1) a cash severance amount equal to the sum of two times the NEO's annual base salary in effect on the termination date (or, for Mr. Davis only, three times), plus two times the NEO's target incentive bonus for the year of termination date (or, for Mr. Davis only, three times), payable in equal installments over twenty-four months, and (2) the NEO's incentive bonus for the year of termination, prorated from the beginning of the year to the date of termination based on actual incentive plan performance as of the date of termination (or, for Ms. Davis only, in a lump sum).

The receipt of the foregoing payments is conditioned upon the NEO's execution and non-revocation of a release of claims and continued compliance with any applicable restrictive covenants.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
(2) In the event of a termination of employment without "cause" or upon the NEO's death or disability (or, for Dave Davis only, resignation for "good reason"), (i) for Dave Davis, all unvested RSUs will vest as of the date of the termination of employment, and a prorated portion of the PSUs will vest as of the date of the termination of employment, based on actual performance and (ii) for all other NEOs, the next regularly scheduled installment of RSUs that would have otherwise vested but for such termination of service will automatically vest in full as of the date of such termination of service, and a prorated portion of the PSUs and performance cash awards will vest as of the date of the termination of employment, based on actual performance; provided that if such termination occurs prior to April 1, 2026, then such pro-rata portion of the performance cash awards will not include the second installment of the performance cash award or any "catch-up" payment.

In the event of a "Change in Control (No Termination)", assuming such RSUs, PSUs and performance cash awards are assumed by the successor company in connection with a change in control, then the unvested RSUs, PSUs and performance cash awards granted to each NEO in 2025 would remain outstanding following the change in control and subject to vesting based on the NEO's continued service through the otherwise applicable vesting dates (with performance determined based on actual performance with respect to PSUs and performance measured at 100% of target with respect to the performance cash awards). In the event of a Qualifying Termination following a change in control, 100% of the RSUs, PSUs and performance cash awards will vest as of the date of the termination of employment. <br>

The amounts in this column represents, for each NEO, (x) in connection with a Termination without Cause and Death or Disability termination, the sum of (1) the next tranche of RSUs granted in 2025 that would vest upon such event (or, for Dave Davis only, the full amount of the RSUs), (2) the PSUs (measured at target) granted to each NEO in 2025 under our 2025 Plan that would vest, determined by multiplying the number of shares, which would vest pro rata according to the time elapsed from the grant date to the date of the event, by the closing price of our common stock on the date of such Qualifying Termination ($0.25 as of December 31, 2025) and (3) the performance cash awards (measured at target) granted in 2025 which would vest pro rata according to the time elapsed from the grant date to the date of the event and (y) in connection with a Qualifying Termination, the sum of the fully vested RSUs, PSUs and performance cash awards, with performance measured at target for PSUs and performance cash awards. <br>

(3) The amounts in this column represent continued coverage under COBRA for each NEO for a period of twelve months following the termination of an NEO's employment by the Company without cause or a Qualifying Termination under the 2025 Executive Severance Plan. The value of such continued coverage is based on the incremental cost of the Company's contribution as of December 31, 2025, to provide this coverage. Receipt of these benefits is contingent on the NEO timely and properly electing continuation coverage under COBRA, and the NEO's execution and non-revocation of a release of claims and continued compliance with any applicable restrictive covenants.

(4) Each NEO is eligible to receive life insurance proceeds of one-times base salary up to $500,000 upon death, which amounts have been included in the table. We pay the premiums for life insurance for all eligible employees providing coverage ranging between $25,000 and $500,000.

(5) The amounts in this column represent the sum of the value of the benefits that the NEOs are entitled to receive pursuant to the 2025 Executive Severance Plan (and, solely with respect to Mr. Davis, pursuant to the Davis Employment Agreement) upon a termination of the NEO's employment by the Company without cause or a Qualifying Termination, and include (i) (a) for Messrs. Cromer, Bendoraitis, Canfield and Ghosh (and their spouses and dependents), a free travel pass for the Company's flights for a period of twelve months pursuant to the 2025 Executive Severance Plan and (b) for Mr. Davis, lifetime positive-space travel benefits for himself and his immediately family pursuant to the Davis Employment Agreement, (ii) outplacement services for each NEO pursuant to the 2025 Executive Severance Plan and (iii) use of a Company-owned mobile phone for a period of thirty days following the NEO's termination of employment pursuant to the 2025 Executive Severance Plan solely to allow the NEO to transition to another device. The receipt of such foregoing benefits is conditioned upon the NEO's execution and non-revocation of a release of claims, and continued compliance with any applicable restrictive covenants. The value of the twelve-month travel pass was calculated using an incremental cost approach, assuming that executives and eligible family members would each take ten round trip flights during the period, each with an incremental cost that includes the estimated cost of incremental fuel, insurance, security, station cleaning, facility rent and station baggage rent, but excludes fees and taxes paid by the NEO for the air transportation. For Mr. Davis, the present value of the lifetime travel pass was calculated using a discount rate of [7.00%] and mortality assumptions based on the United States Statistics Life Expectancy Tables. The value was calculated using an incremental cost approach, assuming that Mr. Davis and his eligible family members would each take ten round trip flights during each year, each with an incremental cost that includes the estimated cost of incremental fuel, insurance, security, station cleaning, facility rent and station baggage rent, but excludes fees and taxes paid by Mr. Davis for the air transportation. For each NEO, the value of the outplacement services reflect the maximum of $10,000 that may be incurred by the Company for such services in respect of each NEO, and the value of an NEO's use of a Company-owned mobile phone is based on the incremental cost to the Company of providing each NEO with continued use of a mobile phone for a period of thirty days following the NEO's termination of employment.

(6) In addition to the amounts set forth herein, the clawback provisions of each Retention Award will no longer be applicable if the NEO's employment terminates due to death or "disability", by Spirit without "cause" or due to the NEO's resignation for "good reason" (each as defined in the Retention Agreement), or within 60 days following a "change in control".

*Mr. Christie's Separation Agreement* 

In connection with Mr. Christie's departure from the Company on April 6, 2025, Mr. Christie and the Company entered into a Separation and Release Agreement (the "Christie Separation Agreement"), pursuant to which Mr. Christie received severance payments and benefits in accordance with the existing terms of the 2017 Executive Severance Plan and the Christie Letter Agreement. Mr. Christie's termination of employment was a termination of employment without "cause" under the Christie Letter Agreement, and the Company's emergence from the 2024 Bankruptcy was deemed a "change in control" for purposes of severance calculations. Such payments were provided in consideration for, and contingent upon, among other things, Mr. Christie's agreement to a release of claims and continued compliance with applicable restrictive covenants.

Pursuant to the Christie Separation Agreement, Mr. Christie received: (i) cash severance in the amount of $4,275,000, which represented the sum of (A) 200% of his annual base salary as in effect on his termination date ($1,900,000) and (B) 200% of his target annual incentive bonus for 2025 ($2,375,000), with such amounts paid during the 24 month period following the termination date; (ii) a prorated portion of his annual cash bonus for 2025; (iii) health care continuation for a period of 12 months post-termination; (iv) reimbursement of legal fees in the amount of $10,000 and (v) a lifetime travel pass for Mr. Christie and his family. Mr. Christie did not hold any equity awards as of the date of his termination of employment; thus the value reflected herein is $0.

#### 2025 Non-Employee Director Compensation Program
For 2025, we maintained a Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy, which is designed to ensure alignment with long-term stockholder interests. The policy is also designed to (i) ensure that the Company can attract and retain outstanding director candidates, (ii) recognize the substantial time commitment necessary to oversee the affairs of the Company and (iii) support the independence of thought and action expected of directors.

The aggregate value of the cash compensation paid and the equity awards granted to any non-employee director during any calendar year may not exceed $400,000 (or $500,000 in the case of the Chairman of the Board, with the value of any such equity awards based on the grant date fair value). Under limited and extraordinary circumstances, the Compensation Committee can make exceptions to the foregoing annual limit, provided that the non-employee director receiving the additional compensation may not participate in the decision to award such compensation. The Compensation Committee's discretion to waive the annual limit has not been exercised to date.

On April 25, 2025, the Board adopted a new, post-emergence non-employee director compensation policy, pursuant to which non-employee directors will be eligible to receive (i) an annual cash retainer, payable quarterly in advance, in the amount of $100,000 and (ii) an annual equity award with a grant date value of $140,000 granted in the form of restricted stock units, which will generally vest 100% on the one-year anniversary of the grant date. In addition to the annual cash retainers set forth above, the non-employee directors will also be eligible to receive additional cash retainers based on their Board and/or committee service as follows:

Chair of the Board: $100,000

Vice Chair of the Board: $75,000

Audit Committee Chair: $25,000

Audit Committee Member: $15,000

Compensation Committee Chair: $20,000

Compensation Committee Member: $10,000

Nominations & Governance Chair: $20,000

Nominations & Governance Member: $10,000

Strategy & Finance Committee Chair: $20,000

Strategy & Finance Committee Member: $10,000

Furthermore, consistent with prevailing practice in the airline industry, our incumbent non-employee directors and their immediate family members are afforded free positive-space personal air travel benefits on our airline, up to a maximum value of $10,000 per year. Our retired non-employee directors who had served on the Board for a period of at least five years ended on or after June 1, 2015, are eligible for lifetime post-retirement positive-space air travel on our airline for the former non-employee director and, until the death of the former non-employee director, for their spouse or designated travel companion and dependent children, up to a maximum value of $5,000 per year. Our non-employee directors are not eligible for retirement benefits or other perquisites provided by the Company, such as life or medical insurance.

Under the Company's stock ownership guidelines, non-employee directors are required to meet a share ownership level with a minimum value equal to 5.0 times the base annual cash retainer payable to non-employee directors (one-third of which must be owned outright in the form of shares of our common stock). Non-employee directors are expected to meet their ownership levels within five years of becoming subject to the guidelines. Due to the recent decline of our stock price, none of our non-employee directors who have served at least five years are currently in compliance with these guidelines. In August 2024, on the recommendation of the advisors, the Compensation Committee approved providing participants an additional five years to get back into compliance.

In connection with the appointment of each of Robert A. Milton and David N. Siegel to the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") on March 12, 2025, a steering committee of the ad hoc group of lenders representing, on a post-emergence basis, a majority of the outstanding equity of the Company (the "Equityholder Steering Committee"), designed and negotiated a one-time equity incentive grant to each of Messrs. Milton and Siegel to induce them to join and lead the Board as Chair and Vice-Chair of the Board, respectively, following the effective date of emergence from the 2024 Bankruptcy (the "Inducement Award"). The Inducement Award was designed and approved by the Equityholder Steering Committee following consultation with its advisors. Each Inducement Award, which was granted on April 25, 2025, represents the right to receive up to a total of 554,436 shares of the Company, and was granted 40% in the form of RSUs and 60% in the form of PSUs.

The RSUs will vest in full on the earlier to occur (A) the three-year anniversary of March 12, 2025 and (B) a change in control (as defined in the 2025 Plan) (the earlier of such dates, the "End Date"), subject generally to (i) each of Messrs. Milton and Siegel's continued service through the End Date and (ii) achieving a minimum share price condition. The PSUs will be earned and vest in full on the End Date, subject generally to (i) each of Messrs. Milton and Siegel's continued service through the End Date and (ii) the level of achievement of a specified share price performance goal, generally measured on the End Date.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
With respect to the RSUs, in the event Messrs. Milton's or Siegel's service is terminated by the Company without "cause" or due to death or disability, a prorated portion of the unvested RSUs shall be eligible to vest, subject to the achievement of the minimum share price condition. With respect to the PSUs, (i) in the event Messrs. Milton's or Siegel's service is terminated due to death or disability, a prorated portion of the unvested PSUs shall be eligible to vest based on achievement of the share price performance goal measured as of the termination date, and (ii) in the event Messrs. Milton's or Siegel's service is terminated by the Company without "cause", all unvested PSUs shall remain outstanding for six months following the date of such termination of service (the "PSU Tail Period") and shall be eligible to be earned and vest based upon achievement of the share price performance goal, if and to the extent, a change in control occurs during such PSU Tail Period. The foregoing treatment upon a termination of service is subject to each of Messrs. Milton's and Siegel's (A) continued compliance with the restrictive covenant obligations and (B) the timely execution and non-revocation of a general release of claims.

The following table sets forth information concerning the compensation earned by or paid to our non-employee directors during the year ended December 31, 2025.

(2) On July 22, 2025, each of our non-employee directors received a grant of 29,535 restricted stock units, with 100% of such grants vesting on July 22, 2026. In addition, on April 25, 2025, Messrs. Milton and Siegel received grants of RSUs and PSUs in respect of the Inducement Awards.

#### CEO Pay Ratio Disclosure
As required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, we are hereby disclosing the ratio of the median of the annual total compensation of all employees to the annual total compensation of our CEO.

We determined the pay ratio under the requirements of Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K. Mr. Davis was our principal executive officer from April 21, 2025 through December 31, 2025, and his annual total compensation is disclosed, in detail, in the "Summary Compensation Table". For purposes of this CEO Pay Ratio, the "Total" column in the 2025 Summary Compensation Table was annualized to give a more accurate representation on the Chief Executive Officer's total annual compensation.

We identified the median employee by examining the 2025 total compensation for all individuals, excluding our CEOs, who were employed by us on December 31, 2025, the last day of our payroll year. For the identified median employee, we did not make any assumptions, adjustments, or estimates to calculate the pay ratio, and only employees who were employed by us as of December 31, 2025 were included. After identifying the median employee, we calculated annual total compensation for such employee using the same methodology we use for our NEOs as outlined in the "Summary Compensation Table" in this Proxy Statement. The SEC rules allow for varying methodologies for companies to identify their median employee. Other companies may have different employment and compensation practices and may utilize different methodologies, estimates and assumptions in calculating their own pay ratios. Therefore, the pay ratios reported by other companies are unlikely to be relevant for purposes of comparison to our pay ratio.

The median of the annual total compensation of all employees in 2025, excluding our CEO, was $50,381. The annualized total compensation of Mr. Davis in 2025 was $22,155,406. Accordingly, for 2025, the ratio of annual total compensation of our principal executive officer to the annual total compensation of our median employee was 440:1.

(1) Edward M. Christie III served as the principal executive officer ("PEO") of the Company during 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and through April 6, 2025. David M. Davis served as PEO beginning on April 21, 2025.

(2) The dollar amounts reported as total compensation for the Company's PEO for each corresponding year are the amounts reported in the "Total" column of the Summary Compensation Table ("SCT") for the PEO, and the dollar amounts reported for the Company's other NEOs as a group for each corresponding year are the average of the amounts reported in the "Total" column of the SCT for such non-PEO NEOs. Refer to "Compensation Discussion and Analysis–Compensation Tables–Summary Compensation Table" of this Amendment No. 1 to our 2025 Form 10-K and the Company's proxy statements for fiscal years 2024, 2023, 2022 and 2021 for additional information. The individuals comprising the non-PEO NEOs in each applicable year are as follows: (i) for 2025, Frederick S. Cromer, John Bendoraitis, Thomas C. Canfield and Arijit R. Ghosh; (ii) for 2024, Frederick S. Cromer, John Bendoraitis, Matthew H. Klein, Thomas C. Canfield, Brian J. McMenamy and Scott M. Haralson; (iii) for 2023, Scott M. Haralson, John Bendoraitis, Matthew H. Klein, and Rocky B. Wiggins; (iv) for 2022, Scott M. Haralson, John Bendoraitis, Matthew H. Klein, and Melinda C. Grindle; and (v) for 2021, Scott M.

(3) The dollar amounts reported as "compensation actually paid" ("CAP") to the Company's PEO, and the dollar amounts reported as average CAP to the non-PEO NEOs as a group, were computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K. The dollar amounts do not reflect the actual amount of compensation earned by or paid to such PEO and NEOs during the applicable fiscal year. The valuation methodologies and assumptions used when calculating the equity values included in CAP are not materially different than those used when calculating the amounts included in the SCT. In accordance with the requirements of Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, the following adjustments were made to the SCT for the PEO and Average SCT Total for the non-PEO NEOs for each applicable year to determine the CAP for our PEO and non-PEO NEOs for each such year:

(a) For the PEO, the grant date fair value of equity awards represents the total of the amounts reported in the "Stock Awards" column in the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable year. For the NEOs, the grant date fair value of equity awards represents the average of the amounts reported in the "Stock Awards" column in the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable year.

(4) The selected TSR peer group is the NYSE Arca Airline Index (^XAL), which is an independently prepared index that includes companies in the airline industry, and which we used in the stock performance graph required by Item 201(e)(1)(ii) of Regulation S-K included in the Company's audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2025.

(5) The comparison of total shareholder returns assumes that $100 was invested on December 31, 2021, through the end of the covered fiscal year, in the Company and the NYSE Arca Airline Index (^XAL).

(6) The dollar amounts reported in this column represent the amount of net income (loss) reflected in the C om pany's audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the applicable year.

(7) Pursuant to Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, "Adjusted CASM ex-fuel" was determined to represent the most important financial measure linking compensation actually paid to our PEO and other NEOs in fiscal year 2025 to Company performance, and was therefore selected as the 2025 "Company-Selected Measure" (as defined in Item 402(v)). "Adjusted CASM ex-fuel " is a common metric used in the airline industry to measure an airline's cost structure and efficiency, and is defined as operating costs, excluding aircraft fuel expense and special items, per available seat mile.

#### Relationship between Pay and Performance
Below are graphs showing the relationship of "compensation actually paid" to our NEOs each of fiscal year in 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025 to (1) TSR of both the Company and the Company's peer group, (2) the Company's net income and (3) CASM ex-fuel. CAP generally fluctuates due to stock price achievement and varying levels of projected and actual achievement of performance goals. For a discussion of how our Compensation Committee assessed the Company's performance and our NEOs' pay each year, see "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" in this Amendment No. 1 to our 2025 Form 10-K and in the proxy statements for 2024, 2023, 2022 and 2021.

#### ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
The Board monitors and reviews any transaction, arrangement or relationship, or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships in which the Company is to be a participant, the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and a related party had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, including purchases of goods or services by or from the related party or entities in which the related party has a material interest, indebtedness, guarantees of indebtedness and employment by us of such related party. Furthermore, the Company's directors and executive officers complete an annual questionnaire that requires them to identify and describe any transactions that they or their respective related parties may have with the Company.

Other than the compensation arrangements with our directors and executive officers described elsewhere in this Amendment, set forth below is the description of the indemnification agreements we have entered into with our directors and executive officers.

#### Indemnification
We enter into indemnification agreements with each of our current directors and executive officers. These agreements provide for the indemnification of our directors and officers for certain expenses and liabilities incurred in connection with any action, suit, proceeding or alternative dispute resolution mechanism, or hearing, inquiry or investigation that may lead to the foregoing, to which they are a party, or are threatened to be made a party, by reason of the fact that they are or were a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of the Company, or any of our subsidiaries, by reason of any action or inaction by them while serving as an officer, director, agent or fiduciary, or by reason of the fact that they were serving at our request as a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of another entity. Under the indemnification agreements, indemnification will only be provided in situations where the indemnified parties acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to our best interest, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, to situations where they had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct was unlawful. In the case of an action or proceeding by or in the right of the Company or any of our subsidiaries, no indemnification will be provided for any claim where a court determines that the indemnified party is prohibited from receiving indemnification.

#### Registration Rights Agreement
On the Effective Date, the Company entered into the Registration Rights Agreement with the initial holders of our Common Stock. See "Description of Capital Stock—Registration Rights Agreements" for further information on the Registration Rights Agreement. On March 5, 2026, the Company entered into a consent and waiver to the Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to which the initial holders of our Common Stock agreed to waive certain registration rights under the Registration Rights Agreement.

#### Independence of the Board of Directors

After review of all relevant transactions or relationships between each director, or any of his or her family members, and the Company, its senior management and its independent registered public accounting firm, the Board has affirmatively determined that Tim Bernlohr, Eugene I. Davis, Andrea Fischer Newman and Radha Tilton are independent directors, in each case within the meaning of the applicable NYSE American listing standards.

There are no family relationships among any of our directors or executive officers.
