**NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS**

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other publicly available documents may contain or incorporate statements that constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Those statements appear in a number of places in this Form 10-Q and include statements regarding, among other matters, the proposed acquisition (the "Merger") of Air Lease Corporation pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated September 1, 2025, including any statements regarding the expected closing of the Merger, the ability to complete the Merger, and the expected benefits of the proposed Merger, the state of the airline industry, our ability to access to the capital and debt markets (including any restrictions imposed by the proposed Merger), the impact of Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the impact of sanctions imposed on Russia, aircraft and engine delivery delays and manufacturing flaws, our aircraft sales pipeline and expectations, changes in inflation and interest rates and other macroeconomic conditions and other factors affecting our financial condition or results of operations. Words such as "can," "could," "may," "predicts," "potential," "will," "projects," "continuing," "ongoing," "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates" and "should," and variations of these words and similar expressions, are used in many cases to identify these forward-looking statements. Any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results to vary materially from our future results, performance or achievements, or those of our industry, expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among others:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the inability to complete the Merger because of the failure to receive, on a timely basis or otherwise, the required approvals by Class A common stockholders;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the inability to complete the Merger because of the failure to receive, on a timely basis or subject to conditions that are not anticipated, the required approvals by governmental or regulatory agencies in connection with the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the risk that the pendency and uncertainty of the Merger disrupts our business and current plans and operations and potential difficulties in employee retention as a result;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the effect of the announcement of the Merger on our business relationships, operating results and business generally;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• certain restrictions on our business activities resulting from the pendency of the Merger;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the restrictions or prohibitions under certain covenants in the merger agreement during the pendency of the Merger that may impact our ability to pursue certain business opportunities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the risk that our Class A common stock price may decline if the Merger is not consummated;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the risk that the Merger may involve unexpected costs, liabilities or delays, or the amount of costs, fees, expenses and charges relating to the Merger may be significant;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our inability to obtain additional capital on favorable terms, or at all, to acquire aircraft from our orderbook, service our debt obligations and refinance maturing debt obligations, including as a result of the restrictions under the merger agreement on our ability to incur additional debt, which may negatively impact our liquidity and ability to maintain our investment grade credit ratings;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our inability to generate sufficient returns on our aircraft investments through strategic aircraft acquisitions and profitable leasing;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the failure of an aircraft or engine manufacturer to meet its contractual obligations to us, including or as a result of labor strikes, aviation supply chain constraints, manufacturing flaws, or technical or other difficulties with aircraft or engines before or after delivery;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• obsolescence of, or changes in overall demand for, our aircraft;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in the value of, and lease rates for, our aircraft, including as a result of aircraft oversupply, manufacturer production levels, our lessees' failure to maintain our aircraft, inflation, and other factors outside of our control;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• impaired financial condition and liquidity of our lessees, including due to lessee defaults and reorganizations, bankruptcies or similar proceedings;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• increased competition from other aircraft lessors;

------

**<u>[**Table of Contents**](#iacf1f470e1464162a4c072a69514731d_7)</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the failure by our lessees to adequately insure our aircraft or fulfill their contractual indemnity obligations to us, or the failure of such insurers to fulfill their contractual obligations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• increased tariffs and other restrictions on trade;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in the regulatory environment, including changes in tax laws and environmental regulations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• other events affecting our business or the business of our lessees and aircraft manufacturers or their suppliers that are beyond our or their control, such as the threat or realization of epidemic diseases, natural disasters, terrorist attacks, war or armed hostilities between countries or non-state actors; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any additional factors discussed under "Part I — Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, "Part II — Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2025, June 30, 2025, and September 30, 2025, and other Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") filings, including future SEC filings.

All forward-looking statements are necessarily only estimates of future results, and there can be no assurance that actual results will not differ materially from expectations. You are therefore cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we do not intend and undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking information to reflect actual results or events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**(Unaudited)**

**Note 1. Company Background and Overview**

Air Lease Corporation (the "Company", "AL", "we", "our" or "us") is a leading aircraft leasing company that was founded by aircraft leasing industry pioneer, Steven F. Udvar-Házy. The Company is principally engaged in purchasing the most modern, fuel-efficient, new technology commercial jet aircraft directly from aircraft manufacturers, such as The Boeing Company ("Boeing") and Airbus S.A.S. ("Airbus"). The Company leases these aircraft to airlines throughout the world with the intention of generating attractive returns on equity. As of September 30, 2025, the Company owned 503 aircraft, managed 50 aircraft and had 228 aircraft on order with aircraft manufacturers. In addition to its leasing activities, the Company sells aircraft from its fleet to third parties, including other leasing companies, financial services companies, airlines and other investors. The Company also provides fleet management services to investors and owners of aircraft portfolios for a management fee.

**Note 2. Basis of Preparation and Critical Accounting Policies**

The Company consolidates financial statements of all entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest, including the accounts of any Variable Interest Entity in which the Company has a controlling financial interest and for which it is the primary beneficiary. All material intercompany balances are eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments, which are in the opinion of management necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows at September 30, 2025, and for all periods presented. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the year ending December 31, 2025. These financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

*Reclassification*

Certain amounts have been reclassified in the 2024 financial statements to conform to the 2025 presentation.

*Initial direct costs/Lease incentives*

The Company records as period costs those internal and other costs incurred in connection with identifying, negotiating, and delivering aircraft to the Company's lessees. Amounts paid by the Company to lessees and/or other parties in connection with originating lease transactions, including any lessor contributions for maintenance events, are capitalized as lease incentives and are amortized over the lease term. Additionally, regarding the extension of leases that contain maintenance reserve provisions, the Company considers maintenance reserves that were previously recorded as revenue and no longer meet the virtual certainty criteria as a function of the extended lease term as lease incentives and capitalizes such costs. The amortization of lease incentives is recorded as a reduction of lease rentals in the Consolidated Statements of Income and the lessor contribution associated is included within Accrued interest and other payables in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

***Recent Accounting Pronouncements***

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2023-09 Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"). ASU 2023-09 requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity's effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. The new requirements are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 and will be applied on a prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on its financial statement disclosures.

In November 2024, FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) ("ASU 2024-03"). In January 2025, the FASB issued Clarifying the Effective Date ("ASU 2025-01") to add some clarity around the effective date of the guidance. ASU 2024-03 requires disaggregated information for specified categories of expenses, including inventory purchases, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion, to

be presented in certain expense captions on the face of the income statement. The new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied either prospectively, to financial statements issued after the effective date, or retrospectively, to all prior periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2024-03 on its financial statement disclosures.

In April 2025, the Company amended and extended its Revolving Credit Facility through an amendment that, among other things, (i) added ALC Aircraft Financing Designated Activity Company, an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, as a borrower to the Revolving Credit Facility under a new tranche B revolving commitment totaling $250.0 million, (ii) extended the final maturity date from May 5, 2028 to May 5, 2029 and (iii) amended the total revolving commitments thereunder to approximately $8.2 billion as of May 5, 2025. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility continue to accrue interest at Adjusted Term SOFR (as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility) plus a margin of 1.05% per year. The Company is required to pay a facility fee of 0.20% per year in respect of total commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility. Interest rate and facility fees are subject to changes in the Company's credit ratings.

*Update on Russian Fleet*

In June 2022, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Plaintiffs") submitted insurance claims to the insurers (collectively, the "C&P Insurers") on the Plaintiffs' contingent and possessed insurance policy ("C&P Policy") to recover losses relating to aircraft detained in Russia for which the Company recorded a net write-off of its interests in its owned aircraft totaling approximately $760.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. On December 20, 2022, the Plaintiffs filed suit in the Los Angeles County Superior Court of the State of California against the C&P Insurers in connection with their previously submitted insurance claims (the "California Litigation").

On January 19, 2024, certain of the Plaintiffs filed suit in the High Court of Justice, Business & Property Courts of England & Wales, Commercial Court against the Russian airlines' aviation insurers and reinsurance insurers (collectively, the "Airlines' Insurers") seeking recovery under the Russian airlines' insurance policies for certain aircraft that remain in Russia (the "London Litigation"). The London Litigation remains in the early stages and a trial has been set to begin in October 2026.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Plaintiffs entered into settlement agreements with all C&P Insurers. As a result, the Company recognized an aggregate of $328.5 million, $339.4 million and $59.7 million in cash insurance settlement proceeds during the three months ended March 31, 2025, June 30, 2025, and September 30, 2025, respectively. All proceeds are recognized under Recoveries of Russian fleet write-off in the Company's consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income.

**(Unaudited)**

Pursuant to the terms of the settlement agreements with the C&P Insurers and following receipt of proceeds, the Plaintiffs (i) released their insurance claims against the C&P Insurers under the C&P Policy in the California Litigation, (ii) released their insurance claims against the C&P Insurers under the reinsurance policies at issue in the London Litigation, and (iii) dismissed the C&P Insurers from the California Litigation and London Litigation. On September 5, 2025, all remaining claims in the California Litigation were dismissed.

As of November 3, 2025, the Company has recovered an aggregate of $823.2 million against its initial $791.0 million write-off of its interests in owned aircraft detained in Russia taken during the first quarter of 2022, comprised of $727.6 million in cash insurance settlement proceeds received from C&P Insurers, $64.7 million in cash insurance settlement proceeds, net of fees, received in December 2023 under Russian airline S7's insurance policies in respect of four aircraft in the Company's owned fleet on lease to S7 at the time of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and a $30.9 million benefit recorded from the October 2022 return of one Boeing 737-8 MAX aircraft that was not operating and had been in storage in Russia since the 737 MAX grounding.

The Plaintiffs continue to have claims against certain Airlines' Insurers in the London Litigation and will continue to vigorously pursue all available insurance claims and related insurance litigation, and all rights and remedies therein. Collection, timing and amounts of any additional insurance and related recoveries in the London Litigation remain uncertain at this time.

**Note 5. Flight Equipment Held for Sale**

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had 11 aircraft, with a carrying value of $341.8 million, which were classified as held for sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had an aggregate of $186.9 million in purchase deposits pursuant to sale agreements related to five of the 11 aircraft, which amount is included in Accrued interest and other payables on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had 30 aircraft, with a carrying value of $951.2 million, which were classified as held for sale.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company transferred six aircraft from flight equipment subject to operating lease to flight equipment held for sale and completed the sale of 25 aircraft from its held for sale portfolio. The Company ceases recognition of depreciation expense once an aircraft is classified as held for sale.

Pursuant to its purchase agreements with Airbus and Boeing, the Company agrees to contractual delivery dates for each aircraft ordered. These dates can change for a variety of reasons, however, for the last several years, manufacturing delays have significantly impacted the planned purchases of the Company's aircraft on order with both Airbus and Boeing. The Company has agreed to revised contractual delivery dates for its Airbus and Boeing aircraft. As of the date of this filing, Airbus and Boeing have generally met the revised delivery dates, and when delayed, the delays have been generally one or two months. However, going forward, delivery delays beyond the revised delivery dates could increase as to the number of aircraft delayed and/or the length of delays.

The FAA continues to enforce a cap on Boeing's 737 MAX production until quality control issues are resolved, although the production cap was increased modestly in October 2025. The broader aviation supply chain remains constrained impacting production capacity for both Airbus and Boeing and resulting in delivery delays.

The aircraft purchase commitments discussed above could also be impacted by cancellations. The Company's purchase agreements with Airbus and Boeing generally provide each of the Company and the manufacturers with cancellation rights for delivery delays starting at one year after the original contractual delivery date, regardless of cause. In addition, the Company's lease agreements generally provide each of the Company and the lessee with cancellation rights related to certain aircraft delivery delays that typically parallel the cancellation rights in the Company's purchase agreements.

Changes to tariff policy in the U.S. and the reaction from the U.S.'s trading partners has resulted in trade policy uncertainty and an escalation in trade tensions, resulting in significant market volatility. In April 2025, the U.S. imposed baseline tariffs on all countries and individualized higher tariffs on nations with which the U.S. assesses that it has the largest trade deficits, while retaliatory tariffs by other countries, such as China and Canada, have been imposed on U.S. products and goods; however, aircraft and aircraft parts were generally exempted. In August and September, 2025, the U.S. government implemented trade frameworks with the European Union (the "E.U."), the United Kingdom (the "U.K.") and Japan that allow for the importation of aircraft and aircraft parts into the US duty free.

Generally, Boeing aircraft manufactured in the U.S. and delivered to customers in other countries may be subject to tariffs; however, the trade framework with the E.U. the U.K. and Japan preserves the zero tariff regime on Boeing and Airbus aircraft and parts imported into the U.S., the E.U., the U.K. and Japan, respectively. As of the date of this filing, the Company has no aircraft placed for delivery from its orderbook that are expected to be subject to currently announced tariffs. As of September 30, 2025, approximately 1.6% of the Company's aircraft by net book value are on lease to lessees located in China, and the Company does not have any scheduled future aircraft deliveries to Chinese airline customers.

The Company's leases are primarily structured as triple net leases, whereby the lessee is responsible for all operating costs including the costs associated with the importation of aircraft. The Company's lessees are generally obligated to pay such tariffs to customs authorities. If lessees are unwilling or unable to assume such costs, it could have an adverse impact on demand for commercial aircraft or result in lease cancellations for those of our customers whose aircraft delivery has been delayed by over one year and who hold lease cancellation rights.

Commitments for the acquisition of these aircraft, calculated at an estimated aggregate commitment (including adjustments for anticipated inflation) of approximately $13.4 billion as of September 30, 2025, are as follows:

The Company has made non-refundable deposits on flight equipment purchases of $1.1 billion and $0.8 billion as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, which are subject to manufacturer performance commitments. If the Company is unable to satisfy its purchase commitments, the Company may be forced to forfeit its deposits and may also be exposed to breach of contract claims by its lessees as well as the manufacturers.

**Note 7. Net Investment in Sales-type Leases** 

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had sales-type leases for 16 aircraft and one engine. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had sales-type leases for 15 aircraft and one engine.

Net investment in sales-type leases is included in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets based on the present value of fixed payments under the contract and the residual value of the underlying asset, discounted at the rate implicit in the lease.

**Note 9. Earnings Per Share**

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that would occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock; however, potential common equivalent shares are excluded if the effect of including these shares would be anti-dilutive. The Company's two classes of common stock, Class A and Class B non-voting, have equal rights to dividends and income, and therefore, basic and diluted earnings per share are the same for each class of common stock. As of September 30, 2025, the Company did not have any Class B non-voting common stock outstanding.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Diluted earnings per share takes into account the vesting of restricted stock units using the treasury stock method. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024, the Company did not exclude any potentially dilutive securities, whose effect would have been anti-dilutive, from the computation of diluted earnings per share. The Company excluded 1,033,419 and 1,047,068 shares related to restricted stock units for which the performance metric had yet to be achieved as of September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

**Note 12. Fair Value Measurements**

*Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring and Non-recurring Basis*

The Company has three cross-currency swaps related to its Canadian dollar and Euro Medium-Term Notes. The fair value of these swaps as a foreign currency derivative are categorized as a Level 2 measurement in the fair value hierarchy and are measured on a recurring basis. As of September 30, 2025, the estimated fair value of the Company's foreign currency swaps was, in the aggregate, derivative assets of $45.2 million and derivative liabilities of $5.3 million. As of December 31, 2024, the estimated fair value of the Company's foreign currency swaps were, in the aggregate, derivative liabilities of $38.8 million. Derivative assets are included in Other assets and derivative liabilities are included in Accrued interest and other payables on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets.

*Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Values*

The fair value of debt financing is estimated based on the quoted market prices for the same or similar issues, or on the current rates offered to the Company for debt of the same remaining maturities, which would be categorized as a Level 2 measurement in the fair value hierarchy. The estimated fair value of debt financing as of September 30, 2025 was $20.2 billion compared to a book value of $20.3 billion. The estimated fair value of debt financing as of December 31, 2024 was $20.1 billion compared to a book value of $20.4 billion.

The following financial instruments are not measured at fair value on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets at September 30, 2025, but require disclosure of their fair values: cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. The estimated fair value of such instruments at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 approximates their carrying value as reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of all these instruments would be categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.

**Note 14. Stock-based Compensation and Other Compensation**

*Stock-based Compensation*

On May 3, 2023, the stockholders of the Company approved the Air Lease Corporation 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2023 Plan"). As of September 30, 2025, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock available for new award grants under the 2023 Plan is approximately 3,450,745. The Company has issued restricted stock units ("RSUs") with four different vesting criteria: those RSUs that vest based on the attainment of book-value goals, those RSUs that vest based on the attainment of total shareholder return ("TSR") goals, time based RSUs that vest ratably over a time period of three years and RSUs that cliff vest at the end of a one year or two year period.

The Company recorded $9.6 million and $7.9 million of stock-based compensation expense related to RSUs for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company recorded $39.9 million and $25.0 million of stock-based compensation expense related to RSUs for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Of the $39.9 million of stock-based compensation expense recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded a $9.6 million expense related to the acceleration of certain RSUs resulting from the retirement of the Company's Chairman from his executive role. In addition, the Company also revised the underlying vesting estimates of certain book value RSUs due to increased probability of certain performance criteria being achieved, which also contributed to the increase in stock-based compensation expense during the period.

Stock-based compensation cost for RSUs is measured at the grant date based on fair value and recognized over the vesting period. The fair value of time-based and book value RSUs is determined based on the closing market price of the Company's Class A common stock on the date of grant, while the fair value of RSUs that vest based on the attainment of TSR goals is determined at the grant date using a Monte Carlo simulation model. Included in the Monte Carlo simulation model were certain assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables, such as expected volatility, risk-free interest rate and expected dividends. To appropriately value the award, the risk-free interest rate is estimated for the time period from the valuation date until the vesting date and the historical volatilities were estimated based on a historical timeframe equal to the time from the valuation date until the end date of the performance period.

**ITEM 2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS**

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

**Overview**

Air Lease Corporation (the "Company", "AL", "we", "our" or "us") is a leading aircraft leasing company that was founded by aircraft leasing industry pioneer, Steven F. Udvar-Házy. We are principally engaged in purchasing the most modern, fuel-efficient new technology commercial jet aircraft directly from aircraft manufacturers, such as Airbus S.A.S. ("Airbus") and The Boeing Company ("Boeing"), and leasing those aircraft to airlines throughout the world with the intention of generating attractive returns on equity. In addition to our leasing activities, we sell aircraft from our fleet to third parties, including other leasing companies, financial services companies, airlines and other investors. We also provide fleet management services to investors and owners of aircraft portfolios for a management fee. Our operating performance is driven by the growth of our fleet, the terms of our leases, the interest rates on our debt, and the aggregate amount of our indebtedness, supplemented by gains from aircraft sales and our management fees.

**Proposed Merger**

On September 1, 2025, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), with Sumisho Air Lease Corporation Designated Activity Company (formerly known as Gladiatora Designated Activity Company), an Irish private limited company ("Parent") and Takeoff Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub"), pursuant to which, among other things and subject to the conditions contained in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving as an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the "Merger"). Parent is a new holding company owned by Sumitomo Corporation, a Japanese corporation, SMBC Aviation Capital Limited, a company incorporated with limited liability in Ireland, affiliates of Apollo Capital Management, L.P. and affiliates of Brookfield Asset Management Ltd.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, subject to the conditions set forth therein, at the effective time of the Merger (the "Effective Time"), each issued and outstanding share of Class A common stock of the Company (the "Common Stock") (other than (i) any Dissenting Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement) and (ii) shares to be canceled or converted into shares of the surviving company pursuant to the Merger Agreement), will be converted into the right to receive $65.00 in cash, without interest. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each share of 4.65% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B ("Series B Preferred Stock"), 4.125% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series C ("Series C Preferred Stock") and 6.00% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series D ("Series D Preferred Stock") of the Company issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will remain outstanding and will be deemed to be a share of preferred stock of the surviving corporation with the same rights, powers, privileges and voting powers, and restrictions and limitations thereof applicable to such series of preferred stock.

The Company currently anticipates that the Merger will close in the first half of calendar year 2026, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the customary closing conditions. We currently operate, and until completion of the Merger will continue to operate, independently of Parent. See Note 16 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Item 1.01 of our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on September 2, 2025 for additional information regarding the proposed Merger.

We ended the third quarter with a total of 503 aircraft in our owned fleet. The net book value of our fleet<sup>1</sup> grew by 4.8% to $29.5 billion as of September 30, 2025 compared to $28.2 billion as of December 31, 2024. The weighted average age of our fleet was 4.9 years and the weighted average lease term remaining was 7.2 years as of September 30, 2025.

We continued to maintain a strong lease utilization rate of 100% for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

As of September 30, 2025, we had commitments to purchase 228 aircraft from Airbus and Boeing for delivery through 2031, with an estimated aggregate commitment of $13.4 billion. We have placed 100% and 96% of our expected orderbook on long-term leases for aircraft delivering through the end of 2026 and 2027, respectively, and have placed approximately 64% of our entire orderbook through 2031. We ended the third quarter of 2025 with $29.3 billion in committed minimum future rental payments, consisting of $19.6 billion in contracted minimum rental payments on the aircraft in our existing fleet and $9.7 billion in minimum future rental payments related to aircraft which will deliver during the last three months of 2025 through 2031.

Our total revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 increased by 5.1% to $725.4 million, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2024. Our total revenues increased from the prior year primarily due to the continued growth in our fleet and an increase in our portfolio lease yield, partially offset by a decrease in aircraft sales activity. We recorded $35.0 million in gains from the sale of five aircraft for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $49.6 million in gains from the sale of nine aircraft and two sales-type leases for the three months ended September 30, 2024.

We finance the purchase of aircraft and our business with our available cash balances and internally generated funds, which includes cash flows from our leases, as well as aircraft sales and debt financing activities. Our long-term debt financing strategy is focused on raising primarily unsecured debt in the global bank and investment grade capital markets, with limited utilization of government guaranteed export credit or other forms of secured financing, however, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, from September 1, 2025 to May 1, 2026, we are restricted from incurring additional indebtedness, other than borrowings under our existing revolving credit facilities or our commercial paper program without Parent's prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). We ended the third quarter of 2025 with available liquidity of $7.4 billion, which was comprised of unrestricted cash of $452.2 million and approximately $6.9 billion in undrawn balances under our unsecured revolving credit facility, net of $1.5 billion in commercial paper borrowings. As of September 30, 2025, we had total debt outstanding of $20.3 billion, of which 75.7% was at a fixed rate and 97.5% was unsecured, and in the aggregate, our composite cost of funds was 4.29%.

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, we reported net income attributable to common stockholders of $135.4 million, or $1.21 per diluted share, compared to net income attributable to common stockholders of $91.6 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase from the prior year period is primarily due to higher rental revenues and a net benefit of $60.5 million from the settlement of insurance claims with certain insurers related to aircraft detained in Russia. This was partially offset by lower sales activity, an increase in our selling, general and administrative expenses due to $8.6 million in costs associated with the merger, and higher interest expense, driven by an increase in our composite cost of funds.

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded adjusted net income before income taxes<sup>2</sup> of $144.5 million, or $1.29 per adjusted diluted share, compared to adjusted net income before income taxes of $140.2 million, or $1.25 per adjusted diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Adjusted net income before income taxes increased primarily due to an increase in total revenues as discussed above, partially offset by lower sales activity and higher interest expense.

<sup>1</sup> References throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to "our fleet" refer to the aircraft included in flight equipment subject to operating leases and do not include aircraft in our managed fleet, flight equipment held for sale or aircraft classified as net investments in sales-type leases unless the context indicates otherwise.

<sup>2</sup> Adjusted net income before income taxes excludes the effects of certain non-cash items, one-time or non-recurring items that are not expected to continue in the future and certain other items. Adjusted net income before income taxes and adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes are measures of financial and operational performance that are not defined by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP").

**Our Fleet**

We continue to own one of the youngest fleets among aircraft lessors, including some of the most fuel-efficient commercial jet aircraft available. Our fleet, based on net book value, increased by 4.8%, to $29.5 billion as of September 30, 2025, compared to $28.2 billion as of December 31, 2024. During the quarter ended September 30, 2025, we purchased 13 new aircraft from Airbus and Boeing and sold five aircraft. We ended the period with a total of 503 aircraft in our owned fleet. As of September 30, 2025, the weighted average fleet age and weighted average remaining lease term of our fleet were 4.9 years and 7.2 years, respectively. We also managed 50 aircraft as of September 30, 2025.

***Aircraft Delivery Delays*** 

Pursuant to our purchase agreements with Airbus and Boeing, we agree to contractual delivery dates for each aircraft ordered. These dates can change for a variety of reasons, however for the last several years, manufacturing delays have significantly impacted the planned purchases of our aircraft on order with both Airbus and Boeing. We have agreed to revised contractual delivery dates for our Airbus and Boeing aircraft. As of the date of this filing, Airbus and Boeing have generally met the revised delivery dates, and when delayed, the delays have been generally one or two months. However, going forward, delivery delays beyond the revised delivery dates could increase as to the number of aircraft delayed and/or the length of delays.

The FAA continues to enforce a cap on Boeing's 737 MAX production until quality control issues are resolved, although the production cap was increased modestly in October 2025. The broader aviation supply chain remains constrained impacting production capacity for both Airbus and Boeing and resulting in delivery delays. Maintenance, repair, and overhaul ("MRO") facility capacity also remains constrained and has worsened thus far during 2025. This has resulted in a significant number of engines remaining off-wing for an extended period of time while waiting for inspection or overhaul, meaningfully impacting operations of our airline customers and the broader industry.

The aircraft purchase commitments discussed above could also be impacted by cancellations. Our purchase agreements with Airbus and Boeing generally provide each of us and the manufacturers with cancellation rights for delivery delays starting at one year after the original contractual delivery date, regardless of cause. In addition, our lease agreements generally provide each of us and the lessee with cancellation rights related to certain aircraft delivery delays that typically parallel the cancellation rights in our purchase agreements.

The following table, which is subject to change based on Airbus and Boeing delivery delays, shows the number of new aircraft expected to be delivered as of September 30, 2025, along with the lease placements of such aircraft as of November 3, 2025. Airbus and Boeing have expressed their desire to increase production rates on several aircraft types but have not meaningfully increased production because of several factors, including ongoing supply chain constraints and other production issues.

**Aircraft Industry and Sources of Revenues**

Our revenues are principally derived from operating leases with airlines throughout the world. As of September 30, 2025, we had a globally diversified customer base of 108 airlines in 55 different countries, with over 95% of our business revenues from airlines domiciled outside of the U.S., and we anticipate that most of our revenues in the future will be generated from foreign customers.

While recent tariff announcements have resulted in some volatility for the global aviation business, we believe the overall airline operating environment remains favorable for us and the broader commercial aircraft leasing industry. Factors such as increases in population growth and the size of the global middle class as well as air travel demand, and improved global economic health and development positively affect the long-term performance of the commercial aircraft leasing industry. In addition, factors and trends including increased airline financing needs, OEM ("Original Equipment Manufacturer") supply chain challenges and backlogs, and environmental sustainability objectives impact the commercial aircraft leasing industry in the short-term and may increase the demand for our aircraft. We are monitoring the impact of tariffs on our business. The effects from evolving tariff regimes did not have an impact on our profitability in the third quarter. As discussed below, it is our expectation that tariff costs resulting from the importation of aircraft will continue to be the responsibility of our leasing customers in accordance with the terms of our triple net leases. While we currently do not expect tariffs to have a material impact on our business, as discussed below, tariffs could impact our business in a number of ways and the level of impact is unknown due to the uncertainty surrounding tariffs currently.

Changes to tariff policy in the U.S. and the reaction from the U.S.'s trading partners has resulted in trade policy uncertainty and an escalation in trade tensions, resulting in significant market volatility. In April 2025, the U.S. imposed baseline tariffs on all countries and individualized higher tariffs on nations with which the U.S. assesses that it has the largest trade deficits, while retaliatory tariffs by other countries, such as China and Canada, have been imposed on U.S. products and goods; however, aircraft and aircraft parts were generally exempted. In August and September, 2025, the U.S. government implemented trade frameworks with the European Union (the "E.U."), the United Kingdom (the "U.K.") and Japan that allow for the importation of aircraft and aircraft parts into the US duty free.

Generally, Boeing aircraft manufactured in the U.S. and delivered to customers in other countries may be subject to tariffs; however, the trade framework with the E.U. the U.K. and Japan preserves the zero tariff regime on Boeing and Airbus aircraft and parts imported into the U.S. and the E.U., the U.K. and Japan, respectively. As of the date of this filing, the Company has no aircraft placed for delivery from its orderbook that are expected to be subject to currently announced tariffs. As of September 30, 2025, approximately 1.6% of the Company's aircraft by net book value are on lease to lessees located in China, and the Company does not have any scheduled future aircraft deliveries to Chinese airline customers.

Without the continuation of industry wide exemptions, tariffs could result in higher costs for certain imported aircraft which an airline may not be willing to assume. Our leases are primarily structured as triple net leases, whereby the lessee is responsible for all operating costs including the costs associated with the importation of aircraft. Our lessees are generally obligated to pay such tariffs to customs authorities. If lessees are unwilling or unable to assume such costs, it could have an adverse impact on demand for commercial aircraft or result in lease cancellations for those of our customers whose aircraft delivery has been delayed by over one year and who hold lease cancellation rights. Additionally, tariffs are likely to also increase aircraft acquisition costs and the costs of components and materials that we purchase, both for existing aircraft in our orderbook and future aircraft orders. More broadly, the impact of such tariffs or uncertainty as a result of such tariffs, is likely to have near term negative impact on the global economy and may serve to reduce demand for air travel which could negatively impact our business. While some trade negotiations are underway, resolution of these trade disputes and associated tariff rates remain uncertain, with unpredictable long-term implications for the global supply chain and economic stability.

Passenger traffic volume has historically expanded at a faster rate than global GDP growth, in part due to the expansion of the middle class and the ease and affordability of air travel, which we expect to continue. The International Air Transport Association ("IATA") reported that passenger traffic was up 5% year-to-date as of September 2025 relative to the prior year period, primarily due to continued strength in international traffic offsetting slower domestic traffic growth globally, while remaining well above the pace of global GDP expansion. International traffic rose 7% year-to-date in September 2025 relative to the prior year period, benefiting from robust continued international travel expansion in the Asia Pacific region, as well as strong expansion in most other major international markets reported by IATA except North America, where growth was more modest. Global domestic traffic rose 2% year-to-date in September 2025 as compared to the prior year period, with all expanding except the domestic US market. Meanwhile, passenger load factors are persisting at historically high levels, with IATA reporting total global passenger load factors of 84% year to-date in September 2025 continuing to support airline demand for additional aircraft.

As global air traffic continues to expand and aircraft production volumes remain constrained, we are experiencing strong demand for our aircraft through new lease requests and lease extension requests, which we expect to continue throughout 2025. The number of scheduled flights globally has continued to expand in recent months relative to 2024, suggesting continued consistent passenger volume support. However, ongoing tariff announcements have resulted in some airlines reducing their passenger traffic volume expectations for the full year 2025. While further impact from tariffs or global macroeconomic conditions could have incremental negative impact on traffic expectations, we continue to expect the need for airlines to replace aging aircraft will support demand for newer, more fuel efficient aircraft. As a result, we believe many airlines will look to lessors to fulfill these needs. In addition, both Airbus and Boeing have ongoing delivery delays which have been further compounded by engine manufacturer delays, shorter on-wing engine time of most new technology engines and ongoing supply chain challenges. We expect deliveries of our 737 MAX aircraft will continue to be impacted by the FAA's involvement in Boeing's production rates. We also expect that relatively low levels of widebody retirements in recent years could lead to an accelerated replacement cycle of older widebody aircraft in the future.

The strong demand for our aircraft, combined with still elevated interest rates and inflation, helped to increase lease rates on new lease agreements and lease extensions during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. However, lease rate increases continue to lag behind our rising borrowing costs. We expect that lease rates will remain strong as the supply and demand environment for commercial aircraft remains tight and our funding advantage relative to our airline customers widens. Lease rates are influenced by several factors above and beyond interest rates, including aircraft demand, supply technicals, supply chain disruptions, environmental initiatives and other factors that may result in a change in lease rates regardless of the interest rate environment and therefore, are difficult to project or forecast. Based on our views of the market and assumptions around our sales activity and interest rate environment, we expect to see a moderately-sized upward trajectory in lease yield through 2029, subject, however, to the uncertain impact that the trade policies and related tariff rates may have on demand for aircraft. We also believe the increase in lease rates and the sustained tightness in the credit markets may result in a shortfall of available capital to finance aircraft purchases, which could increase the demand for leasing.

Airline reorganizations, liquidations, or other forms of bankruptcies occurring in the industry have in the past and may in the future include some of our aircraft customers and result in the early return of aircraft or changes in our lease terms. Our airline customers are facing higher operating costs as a result of persistently elevated interest rates, inflation, tariffs, foreign currency risk, ongoing labor shortages and disputes, as well as delays and cancellations caused by the global air traffic control system and airports, although strong air traffic demand has provided a counterbalance to these increased costs.

We believe the aircraft leasing industry has remained resilient over time across a variety of global economic conditions and remain optimistic about the long-term fundamentals of our business. We believe leasing will continue to be an attractive form of aircraft financing for airlines because less cash and financing is required for the airlines, lessors maintain key delivery positions, and it provides fleet flexibility while eliminating residual value risk for lessees.

**Update on Russian Fleet**

In June 2022, we and certain of our subsidiaries (collectively, the "Plaintiffs") submitted insurance claims to the insurers (collectively, the "C&P Insurers") on the Plaintiffs' contingent and possessed insurance policy (the "C&P Policy") to recover losses relating to aircraft detained in Russia for which we recorded a net write-off of our interests in our owned and managed aircraft totaling approximately $771.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. On December 20, 2022, the Plaintiffs filed suit in the Los Angeles County Superior Court of the State of California against C&P Insurers in connection with our previously submitted insurance claims (the "California Litigation").

On January 19, 2024, certain of the Plaintiffs filed suit in the High Court of Justice, Business & Property Courts of England & Wales, Commercial Court against the Russian airlines' aviation insurers and reinsurance insurers (collectively, the "Airlines' Insurers") seeking recovery under the Russian airlines' insurance policies for certain aircraft that remain in Russia (the "London Litigation"). The London Litigation remains in the early stages and a trial has been set to begin in October 2026.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Plaintiffs entered into settlement agreements with all C&P Insurers. As a result, we recognized a net benefit of $331.9 million, $344.0 million, and $60.5 million from the settlement of insurance claims under our C&P Policy for the three months ended March 31, 2025, June 30, 2025, and September 30, 2025, respectively. These amounts include a $3.4 million, $4.6 million and $0.8 million benefit from our equity interest in our managed fleet for the three months ended March 31, 2025, June 30, 2025, and September 30, 2025, respectively.

------

**<u>[**Table of Contents**](#iacf1f470e1464162a4c072a69514731d_7)</u>**

Pursuant to the terms of the settlement agreements with the C&P Insurers and following receipt of proceeds, the Plaintiffs (i) released their insurance claims against the C&P Insurers under the C&P Policy in the California Litigation, (ii) released their insurance claims against the C&P Insurers under the reinsurance policies at issue in the London Litigation, and (iii) dismissed the C&P Insurers from the California Litigation and London Litigation. On September 5, 2025, all remaining claims in the California Litigation were dismissed.

As of November 3, 2025, we have recovered an aggregate of $834.3 million against our initial $802.4 million write-off of our interests in owned and managed aircraft detained in Russia taken during the first quarter of 2022.

The Plaintiffs continue to have claims against certain Airlines' Insurers in the London Litigation and will continue to vigorously pursue all available insurance claims and related insurance litigation, and all rights and remedies therein. Collection, timing and amounts of any additional insurance and related recoveries in the London Litigation remain uncertain at this time.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

***Overview***

We ended the third quarter of 2025 with available liquidity of $7.4 billion, which was comprised of unrestricted cash of $452.2 million and approximately $6.9 billion in undrawn balances under our unsecured revolving credit facility, net of $1.5 billion in commercial paper borrowings. We finance the purchase of aircraft and our business operations using our available cash balances and internally generated funds, which includes cash flows from our leases, as well as aircraft sales and debt financing activities. We aim to maintain investment-grade credit metrics and focus our debt financing strategy on funding our business primarily on an unsecured basis with mostly fixed-rate debt issued in the public bond market. Unsecured financing provides us with operational flexibility when selling or transitioning aircraft from one airline to another. We also have the ability to seek debt financing secured by our assets, as well as financings supported through government-guaranteed export credit agencies for future aircraft deliveries. We have also issued preferred stock in recent years and have outstanding preferred stock with an aggregate stated amount of $900.0 million as of November 3, 2025. Our access to a variety of financing alternatives and the global capital markets, including capital raises through unsecured public notes denominated in U.S. dollars or various foreign currencies, our commercial paper program, private capital, bank debt, secured debt and preferred stock issuances serves as a key advantage in managing our liquidity; however, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, we are restricted from incurring additional indebtedness, other than borrowings under our existing revolving credit facilities or our commercial paper program without Parent's written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). See 'Financing Restrictions Under the Merger Agreement' below for further details on the restriction.

Ongoing aircraft delivery delays due to manufacturer delays are expected to further reduce our aircraft investment and debt financing needs for the next 12 months and potentially beyond. We believe that we are largely able to self-fund our orderbook with expected operating cash flows and aircraft sales.

We ended the third quarter of 2025 with total debt outstanding of $20.3 billion, of which 75.7% was at a fixed rate and 97.5% was unsecured, and in the aggregate, our composite cost of funds was 4.29%. As of December 31, 2024, we had total debt outstanding of $20.4 billion, of which 79.0% was at a fixed rate and 97.3% was unsecured, and in the aggregate, our composite cost of funds was 4.14%.

***Financing Restrictions Under the Merger Agreement***

Our long-term debt financing strategy is focused on raising primarily unsecured debt in the global bank and investment grade capital markets, however, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, from September 1, 2025 to May 1, 2026, we are restricted from incurring additional indebtedness, other than borrowings under our existing revolving credit facilities or our commercial paper program without Parent's prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement (i) if the Merger has not closed by May 1, 2026 then, during the three-month period commencing on such date, we are permitted to incur additional indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount of up to $2.0 billion in the form of secured or unsecured, investment grade bank term loans and (ii) if the Merger has not closed by the later of July 1, 2026, and 100 days after the date on which Class A common stockholder approval of the Merger is obtained, we may also issue or incur up to $2.0 billion in additional indebtedness in the form of secured or unsecured investment grade bank term loans or unsecured investment grade debt securities, with capacity to incur an aggregate principal amount of up to $2.0 billion in additional indebtedness after the end of each

**<u>[**Table of Contents**](#iacf1f470e1464162a4c072a69514731d_7)</u>**

three month period thereafter, subject to additional conditions and restrictions contained in the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement also restricts our ability to issue additional shares of preferred stock without the Parent's prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

***Capital Allocation Strategy***

We have a balanced approach to capital allocation based on the following priorities, ranked in order of priority: first, investing in modern, in-demand aircraft to profitably grow our core aircraft leasing business while maintaining strong fleet metrics and creating sustainable long-term shareholder value; second, maintaining our investment grade balance sheet utilizing unsecured debt as our primary form of financing; and finally, in line with the aforementioned priorities, returning excess cash to stockholders through our dividend policy as well as regular evaluation of share repurchases, as appropriate. However, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, we are restricted from initiating share repurchases without Parent's prior written consent.

***Material Cash Sources and Requirements***

We believe that we have sufficient liquidity from available cash balances, cash generated from ongoing operations, available commitments under our unsecured revolving credit facility and commercial paper program to satisfy the operating requirements of our business through at least the next 12 months. Our material cash sources include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•* Unrestricted cash:** We ended the third quarter of 2025 with $452.2 million in unrestricted cash.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•* Lease cash flows:** We ended the third quarter of 2025 with $29.3 billion in committed minimum future rental payments comprised of $19.6 billion in contracted minimum rental payments on the aircraft in our existing fleet and $9.7 billion in minimum future rental payments related to aircraft which will deliver during the last three months of 2025 through 2031. These rental payments are a primary driver of our short and long-term operating cash flow. As of September 30, 2025, our minimum future rentals on our existing non-cancellable operating leases for the next 12 months was $2.7 billion. For further details on our minimum future rentals for the remainder of 2025 and thereafter, see "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" under "Item 1. Financial Statements" in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•* Unsecured revolving credit facility**: As of November 3, 2025, our $8.4 billion revolving credit facility is syndicated across 53 financial institutions, with a stated maturity date of May 5, 2029. The facility contains standard investment grade covenants and does not condition our ability to borrow on the lack of a material adverse effect on us or the general economy. As of September 30, 2025, we did not have any amounts outstanding under our unsecured revolving credit facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Commercial paper program**: On January 21, 2025, we established a commercial paper program under which we may issue unsecured commercial paper up to a total of $2.0 billion outstanding at any time, with maturities of up to 397 days from the date of issue. The net proceeds from the issuance of commercial paper are expected to be used for general corporate purposes, which may include, among other things, the purchase of commercial aircraft and the repayment of existing indebtedness. As of September 30, 2025, we had $1.5 billion in outstanding borrowings under our commercial paper program at a weighted average interest rate of 4.61%.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•* Aircraft sales:** Proceeds from the sale of aircraft help supplement our liquidity position. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we sold 25 aircraft resulting in sales proceeds of approximately $867.0 million. We have $1.6 billion of aircraft in our sales pipeline<sup>3</sup>, which includes $341.8 million of aircraft classified as flight equipment held for sale as of September 30, 2025 and $1.3 billion of aircraft subject to letters of intent<sup>4</sup>. We expect the sale of the majority of our aircraft classified as flight equipment held for sale to be completed over the next two quarters. We continue to expect to sell approximately $1.5 billion in aircraft for 2025 and continue to see robust demand in the secondary market to support our aircraft sales program.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Senior unsecured securities:** We have historically been a frequent issuer in the investment grade capital markets, opportunistically issuing unsecured notes, primarily through our Medium-Term Note Program at attractive cost of funds and other senior unsecured securities. As described above under "Financing Restrictions Under the Merger Agreement", our future investment grade capital markets issuances, including under our Medium-Term Note Program, are subject to certain restrictions under the Merger Agreement through the later of July 1, 2026 or 100 days after Class A common stockholder approval of the Merger.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Unsecured bank facilities:** We have active dialogue with a variety of global financial institutions and have historically entered into new unsecured credit facilities from time to time as a means to supplement our liquidity and sources of funding.

<sup>3</sup> Aircraft in our sales pipeline is as of September 30, 2025, adjusted for letters of intent signed through November 3, 2025.

<sup>4</sup> While our management's historical experience is that non-binding letters of intent for aircraft sales generally lead to binding contracts, we cannot be certain that we will ultimately execute binding sales agreements for all or any of the aircraft subject to letters of intent or predict the timing of closing for any such aircraft sales.

These loans are typically pre-payable without penalty at any time offering us significant flexibility in different rate environments. However, as mentioned above under "Financing Restrictions Under the Merger Agreement", our ability to enter into new unsecured bank facilities is subject to certain restrictions under the Merger agreement through May 1, 2026.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**• Other sources:** In addition to the above, we generate liquidity through cash received from security deposits and maintenance reserves from our lease agreements, other sources of debt financings (including secured bank term loans, export credit and private placements), as well as issuances of preferred stock. However, as mentioned above, we are restricted from incurring additional secured debt or issuing additional preferred stock pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement. We have also received $727.6 million in cash insurance proceeds from the settlement of claims against insurers related to our Russian fleet during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 although we don't expect insurance proceeds to have a meaningful contribution to liquidity in the future.

In general, increases and reductions in the Federal Funds Rate should affect the interest rate on our Revolving Credit Facility, our new and existing borrowings that bear interest at a floating rate, and borrowings under our commercial paper program.

A shift in monetary policy in the United States and other countries beginning in 2022 resulted in rapid interest rate increases over a relatively short period of time. Despite recent rate cuts made in 2025 by the FOMC, this persistently elevated interest rate environment has resulted in increased borrowing costs for us and will continue to result in increased borrowing costs until interest rates decline. We cannot predict if or when the FOMC will further reduce the target range for the Federal Funds Rate or the impact of any such reductions on our interest expense or future debt borrowings.

Historically, there has also been a lag between a rise in interest rates and subsequent increases in lease rates. While we have experienced increasing lease rates on new lease agreements and lease extensions since 2023, which are serving to partially offset increased borrowing costs, lease rate increases continue to lag the rapid increase in interest rates. We believe that lease rates should continue to increase as airlines adjust to a persistently higher rate environment and our funding advantage relative to our airline customers widens. In addition, lease rates are influenced by several factors above and beyond interest rates, including supply technicals driven by aircraft demand, supply chain disruptions, environmental initiatives and other factors that may result in a change in lease rates regardless of the interest rate environment.

As of September 30, 2025, we were in compliance in all material respects with the covenants contained in our debt agreements. While a ratings downgrade would not result in a default under any of our debt agreements, it could adversely affect our ability to issue debt and obtain new financings, or renew existing financings, and it would increase the interest rate applicable to certain of our financings. Our liquidity plans are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including those described in "Part I—Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, "Part II — Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2025, June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2025.

Our material cash requirements are primarily comprised of aircraft purchases, debt service payments and general operating expenses. The amount of our cash requirements depends on a variety of factors, including, the ability of aircraft manufacturers to meet their contractual delivery obligations to us, the ability of our lessees to meet their contractual obligations with us, the timing of aircraft sales from our fleet, the timing and amount of our debt service obligations, potential aircraft acquisitions, and the general economic environment in which we operate.

Our material cash requirements as of September 30, 2025, are as follows (in thousands):

The actual delivery dates of the aircraft in our commitments table and the expected time for payment of such aircraft are currently expected to differ from our estimates and could be further impacted by the pace at which Airbus and Boeing can deliver aircraft, among other factors. As a result, the timing of our contractual purchase commitments shown in the table above may not reflect when the aircraft investments are actually made. We anticipate our total aircraft investments for the full year 2025 to be approximately $3.5 billion.

The above table does not include any tax payments we may pay nor any dividends we may pay on our preferred stock or common stock. We are permitted to pay regular quarterly cash dividends up to $0.22 per share of Common Stock, $11.625 per share of Series B Preferred Stock, $10.3125 per share of Series C Preferred Stock, and $15.00 per share of Series D Preferred Stock, which amounts in respect of the Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock may be adjusted in accordance with the dividend reset provisions contained in the relevant certificates of designation.

***Cash Flows***

Our cash flows provided by operating activities increased by 5.9%, or $0.1 billion, to $1.3 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to $1.2 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Our cash flows provided by operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased primarily due to an increase in customer collections related to the growth of our fleet, partially offset by higher cash paid for interest due to the increase in our composite cost of funds as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Our cash flows used in investing activities were $1.4 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to $2.7 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in cash flows used in investing activities is primarily due to cash inflows related to the receipt of $727.6 million in cash insurance settlement proceeds during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Our investing activities are typically driven by the timing of our aircraft purchases and our sales and trading activity. Our cash flows provided by financing activities were $65.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to $1.4 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, our proceeds from financings decreased primarily due to an increase in cash receipts from our insurance recoveries during the period. Our financing activities are mainly driven by changes in our investing activities.

*Senior unsecured securities (including Medium-Term Note Program)*

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had $13.9 billion and $16.0 billion in senior unsecured securities outstanding, respectively. We did not issue any senior unsecured securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

*Unsecured syndicated revolving credit facility*

As of September 30, 2025, we did not have any amounts outstanding under our unsecured syndicated revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility"). As of December 31, 2024, we had $170.0 million outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are used to finance our working capital needs in the ordinary course of business and for other general corporate purposes.

------

**<u>[**Table of Contents**](#iacf1f470e1464162a4c072a69514731d_7)</u>**

In April 2025, we amended and extended our Revolving Credit Facility through an amendment that, among other things, (i) added ALC Aircraft Financing Designated Activity Company, an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, as a borrower to the Revolving Credit Facility under a new tranche B revolving commitment totaling $250.0 million, (ii) extended the final maturity date from May 5, 2028 to May 5, 2029 and (iii) amended the total revolving commitments thereunder to approximately $8.2 billion as of May 5, 2025. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility continue to accrue interest at Adjusted Term SOFR (as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility) plus a margin of 1.05% per year. We are required to pay a facility fee of 0.20% per year in respect of total commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility. Interest rate and facility fees are subject to changes in our credit ratings.

In May 2025, we entered into a new lender supplement which increased the aggregate capacity of our Revolving Credit Facility by $250.0 million. The additional capacity has a stated maturity date of May 5, 2029.

As of November 3, 2025, we had total revolving commitments of approximately $8.4 billion. Lenders held revolving commitments totaling approximately $8.0 billion that mature on May 5, 2029, commitments totaling $125.0 million that mature on May 5, 2028, commitments totaling $25.0 million that mature on May 5, 2027 and commitments totaling $210.0 million that mature on May 5, 2026.

The Revolving Credit Facility provides for certain covenants, including covenants that limit our subsidiaries' ability to incur, create, or assume certain unsecured indebtedness, and our subsidiaries' abilities to engage in certain mergers, consolidations, and asset sales. The Revolving Credit Facility also requires us to comply with certain financial maintenance covenants including minimum consolidated stockholders' equity, minimum consolidated unencumbered assets, and an interest coverage test. In addition, the Revolving Credit Facility contains customary events of default. In the case of an event of default, the lenders may terminate the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility and require immediate repayment of all outstanding borrowings.

*Other unsecured revolving credit facilities* 

As of September 30, 2025, we had outstanding borrowings totaling $600.0 million under two unsecured revolving credit facilities, each with an outstanding balance of $300.0 million. The borrowings bear interest at one-month Term SOFR plus 1.00% and one-month Term SOFR plus 1.05%, respectively, and mature in 2025. As of December 31, 2024, we did not have outstanding balances under our other unsecured revolving credit facilities. These facilities are not guaranteed and are available at the sole discretion of the lender, who has the right to modify or terminate the facilities at any time.

*Unsecured term financings*

In December 2024, we entered into a $966.5 million unsecured term loan with a three-year maturity bearing interest at one-month Term SOFR plus a margin of 1.125%, subject to adjustment based on our credit rating. In April 2025, pursuant to the terms of the loan agreement, we exercised our option for additional commitments totaling $33.5 million. The term loan contains customary covenants and events of default consistent with our Revolving Credit Facility.

In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we entered into three other unsecured term facilities, with aggregate commitments totaling $550.0 million with terms ranging between one to two years, bearing interest at a floating rate between one-month SOFR plus 1.00% and one-month SOFR plus 1.15% plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%.

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the outstanding balance on our unsecured term financings was $3.9 billion and $3.6 billion, respectively.

*Secured debt financings*

As of September 30, 2025, we had an outstanding balance of $511.9 million in secured debt financings, and had pledged ten aircraft as collateral, with a net book value of $736.2 million. As of December 31, 2024, we had an outstanding balance of $544.6 million in secured debt financings and had pledged ten aircraft as collateral, with a net book value of $772.7 million. All of our secured obligations as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were recourse in nature.

*Commercial paper program*

On January 21, 2025, we established a commercial paper program under which we may issue unsecured commercial paper up to a total of $2.0 billion outstanding at any time, with maturities of up to 397 days from the date of issue. The net proceeds from the issuance of commercial paper are used for general corporate purposes, which may include, among other things, the purchase of commercial aircraft and the repayment of existing indebtedness. As of September 30, 2025, we had an outstanding balance of $1.5 billion under our commercial paper program with a weighted average interest rate of 4.61% and a weighted average maturity of less than one month.

*Off-balance Sheet Arrangements*

We have not established any unconsolidated entities for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or for other contractually narrow or limited purposes. We have, however, from time to time established subsidiaries or trusts for the purpose of leasing aircraft or facilitating borrowing arrangements which are included in our balance sheet.

------

**<u>[**Table of Contents**](#iacf1f470e1464162a4c072a69514731d_7)</u>**

We have non-controlling interests in two investment funds in which we own 9.5% of the equity of each fund. We account for our interest in these funds under the equity method of accounting due to our level of influence and involvement in the funds. Also, we manage certain aircraft that we have sold through our Thunderbolt platform. In connection with the sale of certain aircraft portfolios through our Thunderbolt platform, we hold non-controlling interests of approximately 5.0% in two entities. These investments are accounted for under the cost method of accounting.

For more information regarding our aircraft under management, see Note 15 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

***Credit Ratings***

Our investment-grade corporate and long-term debt credit ratings help us to lower our cost of funds and broaden our access to attractively priced capital. The following table summarizes our current credit ratings, including our short-term ratings for our commercial paper program:

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Rating Agency** | **Long-term Debt** | **Short-Term Rating** | **Corporate Rating** | **Outlook** | **Date of Last Long-term Debt and Corporate Ratings Action** |
| Kroll Bond Ratings  | A- | K-1 | A- | Stable | September 2, 2025 |
| Standard and Poor's | BBB | A-2 | BBB | Stable | September 2, 2025 |
| Fitch Ratings | BBB | F-3 | BBB | Negative | September 2, 2025 |

---

While a ratings downgrade would not result in a default under any of our debt agreements, it could adversely affect our ability to issue debt and obtain new financings, or renew existing financings, and it would increase the interest rate applicable to certain of our financings.

our former Russian fleet, and certain other items), adjusted pre-tax margin (defined as adjusted net income before income taxes divided by total revenues), adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes (defined as adjusted net income before income taxes divided by the weighted average diluted common shares outstanding) and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity (defined as adjusted net income before income taxes divided by average common stockholders' equity) are measures of operating performance that are not defined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income attributable to common stockholders, pre-tax margin, earnings per share, diluted earnings per share and pre-tax return on common equity, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity are presented as supplemental disclosure because management believes they provide useful information on our earnings from ongoing operations.

Management and our board of directors use adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity to assess our consolidated financial and operating performance. Management believes these measures are helpful in evaluating the operating performance of our ongoing operations and identifying trends in our performance, because they remove the effects of certain non-cash items, one-time or non-recurring items that are not expected to continue in the future and certain other items. Adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity, however, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results or cash flows as reported under GAAP. Adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity do not reflect our cash expenditures or changes in our cash requirements for our working capital needs. In addition, our calculation of adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity may differ from the adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity, or analogous calculations of other companies in our industry, limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure.

***Three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024***

***Lease rentals***

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded $665.6 million in lease rental revenue, which included amortization expense related to initial direct costs of $23.7 million as compared to $606.2 million in lease rental revenue, which included amortization expense related to initial direct costs of $26.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Our rental of flight equipment revenues increased due to the continued growth of our fleet and an increase in our portfolio yield. The net book value of our flight equipment subject to operating lease increased to $29.5 billion as of September 30, 2025 from a net book value of $27.9 billion as of September 30, 2024.

***Maintenance rentals and other receipts***

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded $15.3 million in maintenance rentals and other receipts as compared to $18.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Our maintenance rentals and other receipts decreased primarily due to lower maintenance rentals collections and end of lease revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the prior year period. We do not expect to receive significant amounts of end of lease revenue for the remainder of 2025, as a vast majority of our leases are set to extend with the current operators.

***Gain on aircraft sales and trading and other income***

Gain on aircraft sales and trading and other income decreased to $44.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $65.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease is mainly driven by lower sales volume as compared to the prior year period. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded $35.0 million in gains from the sale of five aircraft compared to $41.6 million in gains from the sale of nine aircraft and $8.0 million from two sales-type leases for the three months ended September 30, 2024.

***Interest expense***

Interest expense totaled $228.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $217.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Our interest expense increased primarily due to an increase in our composite cost of funds to 4.29% as of September 30, 2025 as compared to 4.21% as of September 30, 2024 as well as an increase in our overall outstanding debt balance.

***Depreciation expense***

We recorded $311.1 million in depreciation expense of flight equipment for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $290.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in depreciation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024, is primarily attributable to the growth of our fleet. We expect our depreciation expense to increase as we continue to add aircraft to our fleet.

***Recoveries of Russian fleet write-off***

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we recognized a net benefit of $60.5 million from the settlement of insurance claims with certain insurers under our C&P Policy comprised of $59.7 million in cash insurance settlement proceeds and a $0.8 million benefit related to our equity interest in our managed fleet. As of November 3, 2025, 16 aircraft previously included in our owned fleet for which we retain title, remain detained in Russia. We did not have any corresponding insurance settlements in the three months ended September 30, 2024.

**<u>[**Table of Contents**](#iacf1f470e1464162a4c072a69514731d_7)</u>**

***Stock-based compensation expense***

We recorded stock-based compensation expense of $9.6 million and $7.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company revised the underlying vesting estimates of certain book value RSUs due to increased probability of certain performance criteria being achieved which also contributed to the increase in stock-based compensation expense during the period.

***Selling, general and administrative expenses***

We recorded selling, general and administrative expenses of $51.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $44.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to higher legal and professional fees associated with the Merger totaling $8.6 million and other general operating expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2025 increased to 7.1% as compared to 6.4% in the prior year period primarily due to the merger related costs mentioned above. We expect to record approximately $8.0 million in additional merger related costs in the fourth quarter of 2025.

***Taxes***

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, our effective tax rate increased to 20.8% from 20.2% in the three months ended September 30, 2024 primarily due to proceeds received from the settlement of insurance claims in a higher tax jurisdiction, specifically the U.S., and changes in permanent items.

***Net income attributable to common stockholders***

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, we reported net income attributable to common stockholders of $135.4 million, or $1.21 per diluted share, compared to net income attributable to common stockholders of $91.6 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase from the prior year period is primarily due to higher lease rentals as discussed above and a net benefit of $60.5 million from the settlement of insurance claims with certain insurers related to aircraft detained in Russia, along with higher revenues as discussed above. This was partially offset by lower sales activity, an increase in our selling, general and administrative expenses due to approximately $8.6 million in costs associated with the merger and higher interest expense, driven by an increase in our composite cost of funds.

***Adjusted net income before income taxes***

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded adjusted net income before income taxes of $144.5 million, or $1.29 per adjusted diluted share, compared to adjusted net income before income taxes of $140.2 million, or $1.25 per adjusted diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Adjusted net income before income taxes increased primarily due to an increase in our lease rental revenue as discussed above, partially offset by lower sales activity and higher interest expense.

Adjusted net income before income taxes and adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes are measures of financial and operational performance that are not defined by GAAP. See footnote (1) under the "Results of Operations" table above for a discussion of adjusted net income before income taxes and adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes as non-GAAP measures and reconciliation of these measures to net income attributable to common stockholders.

***Nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024***

***Lease rentals***

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded $2.0 billion in lease rental revenue, which included amortization expense related to initial direct costs of $69.1 million as compared to $1.8 billion in lease rental revenue, which included amortization expense related to initial direct costs of $77.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Our rental of flight equipment revenues increased primarily due to the continued growth of our fleet. The net book value of our flight equipment subject to operating lease increased to $29.5 billion as of September 30, 2025 from a net book value of $27.9 billion as of September 30, 2024.

***Maintenance rentals and other receipts***

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded $54.5 million in maintenance rentals and other receipts as compared to $57.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower overhaul revenue, partially offset by higher end of lease revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we recognized end of lease revenues of $23.6 million and $18.5 million, respectively.

***Gain on aircraft sales and trading and other income***

Gain on aircraft sales and trading and other income increased to $190.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $171.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was mainly driven by an increase of $16.4 million in management fee revenue, mainly due to the receipt of insurance proceeds related to Russia and slightly higher gains from sales as compared to the prior year period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded $112.6 million in gains from the sale of 25 aircraft and $7.6 million from one sales-type lease, compared to $104.8 million in gains from the sale of 25 aircraft and $14.5 million from three sales-type leases for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

***Interest expense***

Interest expense totaled $673.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $615.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Our interest expense increased primarily due to an increase in our composite cost of funds to 4.29% as of September 30, 2025 as compared to 4.21% as of September 30, 2024 as well as an increase in our overall outstanding debt balance.

***Depreciation expense***

We recorded $914.4 million in depreciation expense of flight equipment for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $849.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in depreciation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024, is primarily attributable to the growth of our fleet. We expect our depreciation expense to increase as we continue to add aircraft to our fleet.

***Recoveries of Russian fleet write-off***

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recognized a net benefit of $736.4 million from the settlement of insurance claims with certain insurers under our C&P Policy comprised of $727.6 million in cash insurance settlement proceeds and an $8.8 million benefit related to our equity interest in our managed fleet. As of November 3, 2025, 16 aircraft previously included in our owned fleet for which we retain title, remain detained in Russia. We did not have any corresponding insurance settlements in the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

***Stock-based compensation expense***

We recorded stock-based compensation expense of $39.9 million and $25.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, respectively. Of the $39.9 million of stock-based compensation expense recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded a $9.6 million expense related to the acceleration of certain RSUs resulting from the retirement of our Chairman from his executive role. In addition, we also revised the underlying vesting estimates of certain book value RSUs due to increased probability of certain performance criteria being achieved, which also contributed to the increase in stock-based compensation expense during the period.

***Selling, general and administrative expenses***

We recorded selling, general and administrative expenses of $161.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $137.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 is primarily due to a $9.2 million expense related to the retirement of our Chairman from his executive role, higher legal and professional fees associated with the Merger totaling $8.6 million, an increase in legal fees related to the litigation against our insurers regarding our Russian fleet and other general operating expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased to 7.3% as compared to 6.8% in the prior year period primarily due to costs related to the retirement costs and the merger related costs mentioned above. We expect to record approximately $8.0 million in additional merger related costs in the fourth quarter of 2025.

***Taxes***

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, our effective tax rate increased to 20.6% from 20.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 primarily due to proceeds received from the settlement of insurance claims in a higher tax jurisdiction, specifically the U.S., and changes in permanent items.

***Net income attributable to common stockholders***

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we reported net income attributable to common stockholders of $874.2 million, or $7.79 per diluted share, compared to net income attributable to common stockholders of $279.5 million, or $2.50 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase from the prior year period is primarily due to higher lease rentals and gain on aircraft sales and trading and other income as discussed above and a net benefit of $736.4 million from the settlement of insurance claims with certain insurers related to aircraft detained in Russia. These were partially offset by higher interest expense, driven by the increase in our composite cost of funds, and by a $19.5 million increase in compensation expense, primarily consisting of $9.2 million in selling, general and administrative expense and $9.6 million in stock-based compensation expense, related to the retirement of our Chairman from his executive role. Additionally, our selling, general, and administrative expenses increased due to approximately $8.6 million in costs associated with the merger and higher legal costs related to litigation involving our Russian fleet.

***Adjusted net income before income taxes***

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded adjusted net income before income taxes of $471.4 million, or $4.20 per adjusted diluted share, compared to adjusted net income before income taxes of $423.8 million, or $3.79 per adjusted diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Adjusted net income before income taxes increased primarily due to an increase in our lease rental revenue and gain on aircraft sales and trading and other income, partially offset by higher interest expense.

Adjusted net income before income taxes and adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes are measures of financial and operational performance that are not defined by GAAP. See footnote (1) under the "Results of Operations" table above for a discussion of adjusted net income before income taxes and adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes as non-GAAP measures and reconciliation of these measures to net income attributable to common stockholders.

**Critical Accounting Estimates**

Our critical accounting estimates reflecting management's estimates and judgments are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. We have reviewed recently adopted accounting pronouncements and determined that the adoption of such pronouncements is not expected to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements. Accordingly, there have been no material changes to critical accounting estimates in the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

**ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK**

Market risk represents the risk of changes in the value of a financial instrument, caused by fluctuations in interest rates and foreign exchange rates. Changes in these factors could cause fluctuations in our results of operations and cash flows. We are exposed to the market risks described below.

**Interest Rate Risk**

The nature of our business exposes us to market risk arising from changes in interest rates. Changes, both increases and decreases, in our cost of borrowing, as reflected in our composite interest rate, directly impact our net income. Lease rates, and therefore our revenue from a lease, are generally fixed over the life of our leases. We have some exposure to changing interest rates as a result of our floating-rate debt, primarily from our Revolving Credit Facility, other revolving credit facilities and unsecured term loans. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had $4.9 billion and $4.3 billion in floating-rate debt outstanding, respectively. Additionally, we have outstanding preferred stock with an aggregate stated amount of $900.0 million as of September 30, 2025, which will reset the dividends to a new fixed rate based on the then-applicable treasury rate after five years from initial issuance and every five years thereafter. If interest rates remain elevated, we would be obligated to make higher interest payments to the lenders of our floating-rate debt, and higher dividend payments to the holders of our preferred stock. If we incur significant fixed-rate debt in the future, increased interest rates prevailing in the market at the time of the incurrence of such debt would also increase our interest expense. If the composite interest rate on our outstanding floating rate debt was to increase by 1.0%, we would expect to incur additional annual interest expense on our existing indebtedness of approximately $49.3 million and $42.8 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, each on an annualized basis, which would put downward pressure on our operating margins.

We also have interest rate risk on our forward lease placements. This is caused by us setting a fixed lease rate in advance of the delivery date of an aircraft. The delivery date is when a majority of the financing for an aircraft is arranged. To partially mitigate the risk of an increasing interest rate environment between the lease signing date and the delivery date of the aircraft, a majority of our forward lease contracts have manufacturer escalation protection and/or interest rate adjusters which would adjust the final lease rate upward or downward based on changes in the consumer price index or certain benchmark interest rates, respectively, at the time of delivery of the aircraft as compared to the lease signing date, subject to an outside limit on such adjustments.

**Foreign Exchange Rate Risk**

We attempt to minimize currency and exchange risks by entering into aircraft purchase agreements and a majority of lease agreements and debt agreements with U.S. dollars as the designated payment currency. Thus, most of our revenue and expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars. Approximately 0.3% and 0.4% of our lease revenues were denominated in foreign currency as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Additionally, some of our net investments in sales-type leases, which represent 0.7% and 0.6% of our total assets as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, were denominated in foreign currency. These investments are not currently hedged and require remeasurement as of the end of each period, exposing us to fluctuations in exchange rates that could impact our financial results and cash flows. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we incurred a $19.5 million gain resulting from currency fluctuation based on these investments. We periodically assess our unhedged foreign currency risk and may employ hedging strategies in the future to mitigate any potential adverse effects.

Approximately 6.3% and 6.1% of our debt obligations were denominated in foreign currency as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively; however, the exposure of such debt has been effectively hedged. As our principal currency is the U.S. dollar, fluctuations in the U.S. dollar as compared to other major currencies should not have a significant impact on our future operating results. However, many of our lessees are exposed to currency risk due to the fact that they earn revenues in their local currencies while a significant portion of their liabilities and expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars, including their lease payments to us, as well as fuel, debt service, and other expenses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, more than 95% of our revenues were derived from customers who have their principal place of business outside the U.S. and most leases designated payment

------

**<u>[**Table of Contents**](#iacf1f470e1464162a4c072a69514731d_7)</u>**

currency as U.S. dollars. The ability of our lessees to make lease payments to us in U.S. dollars may be adversely impacted in the event of an appreciating U.S. dollar.

**ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**

**Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), and such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (collectively, the "Certifying Officers"), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives as the Company's controls are designed to do, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the risk related to controls and procedures.

We have evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Certifying Officers, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of September 30, 2025. Based on that evaluation, our Certifying Officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2025.

**Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2025 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

**PART II—OTHER INFORMATION**

**ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS**

Subsequent to the filing on October 15, 2025 of our preliminary proxy statement in connection with the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), with Sumisho Air Lease Corporation Designated Activity Company (formerly known as Gladiatora Designated Activity Company), an Irish private limited company ("Parent") and Takeoff Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub"), pursuant to which, among other things and subject to the conditions contained in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving as an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the "Merger"), a complaint was filed by a purported Class A common stockholder of the Company against the Company and our current directors. The complaint was filed on October 30, 2025 in the United States District Court for the Central District of California captioned Lincoln Sise v. Air Lease Corporation et al, Case No. 2:25-cv-10445. The complaint generally alleges violations of Sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in connection with our preliminary proxy statement. The complaint seeks, among other things, (i) injunctive relief enjoining the Merger, (ii) rescission or recessionary damages in the event the Merger is consummated, (iii) dissemination of a proxy statement that does not contain untrue statements and that states all material facts required to make the statement not misleading and (iv) attorneys' and experts' fees and costs. We believe we have substantial defenses against the allegations asserted. On November 3, 2025, the plaintiff filed a notice for voluntary dismissal of its claims without prejudice. Additional lawsuits arising out of or relating to the Merger Agreement or the Merger may be filed in the future.

Additionally, from time to time, we may be involved in litigation and claims incidental to the conduct of our business in the ordinary course. Our industry is also subject to scrutiny by government regulators, which could result in enforcement proceedings or litigation related to regulatory compliance matters. We are not presently a party to any enforcement proceedings or litigation related to regulatory compliance matters. We maintain insurance policies in amounts and with the coverage and deductibles we believe are adequate, based on the nature and risks of our business, historical experience and industry standards.

**ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS**

Other than as stated below, there have been no material changes in our risk factors from those discussed under "Part I—Item 1A. Risk Factors," in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and "Part II — Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025, respectively.

***Completion of the Merger is contingent upon satisfying various closing conditions, including approvals from government authorities, regulatory bodies, and our Class A common stockholders, as well as other factors that may result in uncertainty. There can be no assurances regarding the timing or likelihood of completion. Failure to complete the Merger could have an adverse effect on our Class A common stock price, operating results, and financial condition.***

The proposed Merger is subject to several customary conditions including without limitation, (i) the adoption and approval of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby by the affirmative votes of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class A common stock at a meeting of the Company's stockholders, (ii) the expiration or termination of the waiting period applicable to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated thereby (including the Orderbook Transfer (as defined in the Merger Agreement)) under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended and under certain non-U.S. antitrust and competition laws, and the receipt of approval of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States under the Defense Production Act and under certain non-U.S. investment laws, (iii) the absence of any applicable law, judgment, or other legal restraint or prohibition or binding order or determination by any governmental entity that prevents, makes illegal or prohibits the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (iv) the accuracy of each party's representations and warranties (subject to certain qualifications), (v) each party's performance in all material respects of its obligations under the Merger Agreement and (vi) the absence of a Company Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Merger Agreement) after the date of the Merger Agreement.

While we believe we will receive the requisite approvals, there can be no assurance that these and other conditions to closing will be satisfied at all or satisfied on the proposed terms and schedules as contemplated by the parties. Satisfaction of the closing conditions may delay the consummation of the Merger, and if certain closing conditions are not satisfied prior to the end date specified in the Merger Agreement (and subject to certain extensions of the end date specified in the Merger Agreement), the parties will not be obligated to complete the Merger.

The Merger Agreement contains specified termination rights for each of the parties. Upon termination of the agreement under certain conditions, the Company must pay Parent a $225.0 million termination fee. The failure to complete the Merger may result in negative publicity and negatively affect our relationship with our stockholders, employees, customers and suppliers. We may also be required to devote significant time and resources to litigation related to any failure to complete the Merger or related to any enforcement proceeding commenced against us to perform our obligations under the Merger Agreement. For these and other reasons, a failed Merger may have an adverse impact on our business, operating results, or financial condition. Additionally, the price of our Class A common stock may decline since the current valuation anticipates successful completion of the Merger.

***Uncertainties associated with the Merger could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.***

The announcement and pendency of the Merger, as well as any delays in the expected timeframe, could cause disruption in our business and create uncertainties, which could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition, regardless of whether the Merger is completed. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the possibility that our relationship with airline customers, our suppliers, and employees could be adversely affected, including if our suppliers, customers or others attempt to negotiate changes in existing business relationships, consider entering into business relationships with parties other than us, delay or defer decisions concerning their business with us, or terminate their existing business relationships with us during the pendency of the Merger;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• uncertainties caused by any negative sentiment in the marketplace with respect to the Merger, which could adversely impact investor confidence in the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a diversion of a significant amount of management time and resources toward the completion of the Merger;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a distraction of our current employees as a result of the Merger, which could result in a decline in their productivity or cause distractions in the workplace;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• being subject to certain restrictions on the conduct of our business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• possibly foregoing certain business opportunities that we might otherwise pursue absent the pending Merger;

**<u>[**Table of Contents**](#iacf1f470e1464162a4c072a69514731d_7)</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• difficulties in attracting and retaining key employees due to uncertainties related to the Merger;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• impact of costs related to completion of the Merger, including any costs related to obtaining regulatory approvals; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• other developments beyond our control, including, but not limited to, changes in domestic or global economic conditions that may affect the timing or success of the Merger.

The adverse effects of the pendency of the Merger could be exacerbated by any delays in completion of the Merger or termination of the Merger Agreement.

***While the Merger Agreement is in effect, we are subject to restrictions on our business activities.***

While the Merger Agreement is in effect, we are subject to restrictions on our business activities, including, among other things, restrictions on our ability to acquire other businesses and assets, dispose of our assets, enter into or materially modify certain contracts, repurchase, adjust the terms of or issue securities, pay dividends (subject to limited exceptions, including payment of regular quarterly cash dividends in accordance with past practice and payment of preferred stock dividends as required by the applicable certificate of designation), make certain capital expenditures, settle certain legal actions, take certain actions relating to intellectual property, take certain action related to employee benefit plans, amend our organizational documents and incur additional indebtedness. These restrictions could prevent us from pursuing strategic business opportunities, taking actions with respect to our business that we may consider advantageous and responding effectively and/or timely to competitive pressures and industry developments, and may as a result materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

***The Merger Agreement contains provisions that limit our ability to pursue alternatives to the Merger.***

Under the Merger Agreement, we are restricted from soliciting, initiating, knowingly encouraging or knowingly facilitating any inquiry, discussion, offer or request that constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to an Alternative Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement). These provisions could discourage a third party that may have an interest in acquiring all or a significant part of our business from considering or proposing an acquisition, even if such third party were prepared to pay consideration with a higher value than the value of the consideration provided for in the Merger Agreement.

***We have incurred, and will continue to incur, direct and indirect costs as a result of the Merger.***

We have incurred, and will continue to incur, significant costs and expenses, including fees for professional services and other transaction costs, in connection with the Merger. We must pay substantially all of these costs and expenses whether or not the Merger is completed. There are a number of factors beyond our control that could affect the total amount or the timing of these costs and expenses.

***A lawsuit was filed and additional lawsuits may be filed, in connection with the Merger, which could delay or prevent completion of the Merger and/or result in substantial costs.***

As described in "Part II—Item 1. Legal Proceedings" above, a lawsuit related to the Merger was filed on October 30, 2025 by a purported Class A common stockholder, however, the plaintiff filed a notice for voluntary dismissal of its claims without prejudice on November 3, 2025. Additional lawsuits may be filed against us and our directors and officers in the future. Although litigation is common in connection with acquisitions of public companies, regardless of any merits related to the underlying acquisition, the outcome of any litigation cannot be assured. Additionally, the amount of fees and costs of defense, including costs associated with the indemnification of directors and officers, and other liabilities that may be incurred in connection with lawsuits and other negative effects, such as diversion of resources from the Merger and ongoing business activities, negative publicity or damage to our relationships with business partners, suppliers and customers, could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.

On the third anniversary of the Commencement Date, the Company will review your dual employment arrangement to determine if the Company wishes to continue your employment under this Agreement for the remainder of the Fixed-Term or revert, upon giving you reasonable written notice, to your employment solely pursuant to the US Employment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1

------

3.2Your commencement date for the purposes of any period of continuous employment and for statutory purposes is the Commencement Date.

3.3The Unfair Dismissals Acts 1977-2015 shall not apply to a dismissal consisting only of the expiry of the Fixed-Term without its renewal.

4**DUTIES**

4.1While the list is not exhaustive, the main duties associated with your position/role are to (i) pursue business leads within ALC Aircraft's market (Outside US) and field requests from current or prospective customers; (ii) Negotiate terms of the LOI with current and prospective customers; (iii) Identify suitable aircraft on the order book to fulfil customer contracts; (iv) Negotiate terms of the final lease agreements; (v) Conduct activities necessary to maintain active operating leases; and (vi) Any other marketing and sales type activities.

4.2From time to time, and without further remuneration, other duties may be assigned to you by the Board consistent with your position at the Company, which may include duties to be performed on behalf of any Group Company.

5**HOURS OF WORK**

5.1You determine your own working hours for the purposes of section 3(2)(c) of the Organisation of Working Time Act 1997, however it is expected that you will devote 50% of your working time to your duties under this Agreement.

6**SALARY**

6.1Your basic salary is **€368,000** gross per annum (**Basic Salary**), subject to deductions of tax required by law or provided for under this Agreement. Your Basic Salary is payable monthly in arrears by way of bank transfer into your nominated bank account.

7**PENSION**

7.1The Company will provide access for you to contribute to a standard Personal Retirement Savings Account (**PRSA**) by way of deductions of contributions from your Basic Salary. Full details are available from the Human Resources Department. The Company shall not make any employer contributions to the PRSA.

8**EXPENSES**

8.1You will be reimbursed for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including hotel, travelling and entertainment expenses) which you may from time to time wholly, exclusively and necessarily incur in the proper performance of your duties. Such reimbursement will be in accordance with any relevant expenses policy from time to time and subject to the production of such receipts or other evidence as the Company may require.

9**DEDUCTIONS**

9.1The Company shall be entitled to deduct from your remuneration all sums owed by you to the Company.

10**HOLIDAYS**

10.1The Company's holiday year runs from 1 January to 31 December. You shall be entitled to pro-rated annual leave entitlements in accordance with the Organisation of Work Time Act 1997.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2

------

12.1This agreement is immediately terminable by you by giving the Company written notice of termination or by the Company giving you the required period of written notice as set out in the Minimum Notice and Terms of Employment Act, 1973 (as may be amended from time to time) (the **Termination Notice Period**). In the event of notice by either Party, the Company may request you take "garden leave" and not attend for work or perform duties during all or part of the Termination Notice Period. During that time you will continue to be employed by the Company and owe duties of fidelity and good faith to the Company and will remain bound by the terms of this Agreement and shall not be entitled to enter into any other employment. For the avoidance of doubt, when calculating the Termination Notice Period your service with the Company begins with the Commencement Date of this Agreement.

Payments in lieu are payable in accordance with the Company's payroll practices, but at least monthly.

12.3The Company shall have the right to suspend you on full pay pending (i) any investigation (internal or external, disciplinary, regulatory or otherwise) and/or (ii) any subsequent disciplinary hearing, (iii) and/or any appeal hearing.

12.4Notwithstanding the earlier provisions of this clause, the Company shall be entitled, by notifying you in writing, to terminate this Agreement without notice or any payment by way of compensation, damages, payment in lieu of notice or otherwise if you are guilty of gross misconduct or in circumstances which justify summary dismissal.

12.5The exercise by the Company of its right to terminate under this clause shall be without prejudice to any other rights or remedies which the Company or any Group Company may have or be entitled to exercise against you.

13**DATA PROTECTION**

13.1Details of how and why the Company processes your personal data are contained in the Company's Data Privacy Notice which will be provided to you separately.

14**COLLECTIVE AGREEMENTS**

There are no collective agreements relevant to your employment with the Company.

15**NOTICES**

15.1Any notice given under this Agreement shall be deemed to have been served on you if it is served on you personally or, in the alternative, left at or sent by registered post to you at your usual address, as supplied by you to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3

Kishore Korde

c/o Air Lease Corporation

2000 Avenue of the Stars, Suite 1000N

Los Angeles, CA 90047

Dear Kishore:

This letter confirms your work assignment in Ireland.

At the request of Air Lease Corporation ("ALC US") and ALC Aircraft Limited ("ALC Ireland"), you will provide services concurrently to both ALC US and ALC Ireland ("Dual Assignment"). As part of the services you will render for ALC Ireland, you will be offered employment with ALC Ireland and you will indicate your acceptance of the offer by signing an Irish employment contract ("Irish Contract"). ALC US acknowledges and agrees that you are currently employed by ALC US until such day when your employment with ALC US is terminated. Your employment with ALC Ireland, pursuant to the Irish Contract, is as a consequence of and conditional and contingent upon the continuation of your employment with ALC US.

The termination of your employment under the Irish Contract does not automatically terminate your employment with ALC US. The termination of your employment with ALC US, however, shall automatically terminate your employment with ALC Ireland pursuant to the Irish Contract. ALC Ireland, in conjunction with ALC US (at their joint discretion), reserves the right to bring your employment with ALC Ireland pursuant to the Irish Contract to an end, in accordance with the termination provisions in clause 12 of the Irish Contract. In such event, ALC Ireland shall pay you in lieu of notice in accordance with clause 12 of the Irish Contract and you will revert to being solely employed and salaried by ALC US. For the avoidance of doubt, in case of conflict or inconsistency between the Irish Contract and the terms of this letter, the terms of this letter shall prevail, subject to applicable law.

Your current base salary at ALC US is $840,000 ("Base Salary"). Because you will now have a Dual Assignment, your Base Salary will be allocated as follows:

ALC US – $420,000

ALC Ireland – €368,000 (representing 50% of your base salary in Euros)

Your total compensation will be reviewed annually by ALC US and ALC Ireland. For the duration of the assignment, you continue without interruption to be eligible for ALC US's annual performance-based incentive bonuses, long-term equity incentive awards, and any other benefits and retirement program ("ALC US Benefits"). ALC US will take into consideration your total compensation and the duties and responsibilities to both ALC US and ALC Ireland in making any applicable calculations and determining relevant performance metrics and objectives under such bonuses, incentive awards, benefits and programs. Nothing in the Irish Contract will modify the amount of the ALC US Benefits, other than Base Salary, paid or provided to you by ALC US. To the extent that the ALC US Benefits are reduced as a result of your Dual Assignment, ALC US will pay you an additional amount equal to any such reductions.

------

![picture2.jpg](picture2.jpg)<br>

The Compensation and Leadership Development Committee of the ALC US Board of Directors has designated you as a participant under the Air Lease Corporation Executive Severance Plan ("Severance Plan"), as amended May 3, 2017. For the avoidance of doubt and so long as you are a designated participant under the Severance Agreement, any payments under the ALC Severance Agreement will be calculated based on your total compensation with ALC US and ALC Ireland. In addition, upon termination solely of your employment with ALC Ireland under the Irish Contract, you shall not be entitled to receive the amounts provided for in Sections 4.2(b)(ii), 4(2)b)(iii) and 4(2)(b)(iv) of the ALC Severance Agreement.

Nothing in this letter or the Irish Contract will modify ALC US's obligations to indemnify you and hold you harmless to the fullest extent permitted by law or under the organizational documents of ALC US and any other indemnification agreements, arrangements or policies in effect at ALC US from time to time.

When received, ALC US will provide you with a copy of your Irish PAYE exclusion order and your US Social Security Certificate of Coverage related to your Dual Assignment. If it is possible to deactivate your Irish PPS number following your termination of employment, the Company will also assist you.

ALC US will provide tax review assistance to you at ALC US's cost for the tax years you have dual employment in the US and Ireland. If your employment with ALC Ireland pursuant to the Irish Contract results in an increased personal tax liability compared to your current US tax liability, ALC US will provide tax equalization to you, including gross-up assistance to help defray additional tax liabilities you may incur as a result of any payments to you in connection with this assignment being viewed as additional compensation by tax authorities. The tax equalization benefit will be such that the amount of payments that you retain in the aggregate in all jurisdictions is not less than the amount that you would retain if you were subject to income tax solely in the US. To the extent that you are required to pay taxes in any jurisdiction in advance of the payment of the tax equalization benefit (the "Interim Period"), the tax equalization benefit will include interest, which will accrue during the Interim Period at the applicable Federal Rate for the month in which you paid such taxes. ALC US and ALC Ireland, as applicable, will indemnify you and your spouse for any adverse tax consequences in the United States, Ireland, and any other jurisdiction as a result of your entry into the Irish Contract and the Dual Assignment. For the avoidance of doubt, adverse tax consequences include reasonable costs of legal counsel and tax advisors and interest and penalties. The payments required by this paragraph and the preceding paragraph shall be made in no event later than the last day of your taxable year next following your taxable year in which the applicable tax is remitted to the Internal Revenue Service or any other applicable taxing authority. Any indemnification or make whole payments made to you shall be made in a manner that does not cause such payments to constitute deferred compensation under Treas. Reg. 1.409A-1(b)(10) and any successor thereto.

Payments made under clause 12 of the Irish Contract are not to be reduced or modified by any amounts paid under the ALC Severance Agreement.

By accepting this offer, you agree to the provision of relevant information about you from ALC US to ALC Ireland, or vice versa, even if that means moving your personal data across international borders.

David Beker

c/o Air Lease Corporation

2000 Avenue of the Stars, Suite 1000N

Los Angeles, CA 90047

Dear David:

This letter confirms your work assignment in Ireland.

At the request of Air Lease Corporation ("ALC US") and ALC Aircraft Limited ("ALC Ireland"), you will provide services concurrently to both ALC US and ALC Ireland ("Dual Assignment"). As part of the services you will render for ALC Ireland, you will be offered employment with ALC Ireland and you will indicate your acceptance of the offer by signing an Irish employment contract ("Irish Contract"). ALC US acknowledges and agrees that you are currently employed by ALC US until such day when your employment with ALC US is terminated. Your employment with ALC Ireland, pursuant to the Irish Contract, is as a consequence of and conditional and contingent upon the continuation of your employment with ALC US.

The termination of your employment under the Irish Contract does not automatically terminate your employment with ALC US. The termination of your employment with ALC US, however, shall automatically terminate your employment with ALC Ireland pursuant to the Irish Contract. ALC Ireland, in conjunction with ALC US (at their joint discretion), reserves the right to bring your employment with ALC Ireland pursuant to the Irish Contract to an end, in accordance with the termination provisions in clause 12 of the Irish Contract. In such event, ALC Ireland shall pay you in lieu of notice in accordance with clause 12 of the Irish Contract and you will revert to being solely employed and salaried by ALC US. For the avoidance of doubt, in case of conflict or inconsistency between the Irish Contract and the terms of this letter, the terms of this letter shall prevail, subject to applicable law.

Your current base salary at ALC US is $750,000 ("Base Salary"). Because you will now have a Dual Assignment, your Base Salary will be allocated as follows:

ALC US – $375,000

ALC Ireland – €328,500 (representing 50% of your base salary in Euros)

Your total compensation will be reviewed annually by ALC US and ALC Ireland. For the duration of the assignment, you continue without interruption to be eligible for ALC US's annual performance-based incentive bonuses, long-term equity incentive awards, and any other benefits and retirement program ("ALC US Benefits"). ALC US will take into consideration your total compensation and the duties and responsibilities to both ALC US and ALC Ireland in making any applicable calculations and determining relevant performance metrics and objectives under such bonuses, incentive awards, benefits and programs. Nothing in the Irish Contract will modify the amount of the ALC US Benefits, other than Base Salary, paid or provided to you by ALC US. To the extent that the ALC US Benefits are reduced as a result of your Dual Assignment, ALC US will pay you an additional amount equal to any such reductions.

------

![picture2.jpg](picture2.jpg)<br>

The Compensation and Leadership Development Committee of the ALC US Board of Directors has designated you as a participant under the Air Lease Corporation Executive Severance Plan ("Severance Plan"), as amended May 3, 2017. For the avoidance of doubt and so long as you are a designated participant under the Severance Agreement, any payments under the ALC Severance Agreement will be calculated based on your total compensation with ALC US and ALC Ireland. In addition, upon termination solely of your employment with ALC Ireland under the Irish Contract, you shall not be entitled to receive the amounts provided for in Sections 4.2(b)(ii), 4(2)b)(iii) and 4(2)(b)(iv) of the ALC Severance Agreement.

Nothing in this letter or the Irish Contract will modify ALC US's obligations to indemnify you and hold you harmless to the fullest extent permitted by law or under the organizational documents of ALC US and any other indemnification agreements, arrangements or policies in effect at ALC US from time to time.

When received, ALC US will provide you with a copy of your Irish PAYE exclusion order and your US Social Security Certificate of Coverage related to your Dual Assignment. If it is possible to deactivate your Irish PPS number following your termination of employment, the Company will also assist you.

ALC US will provide tax review assistance to you at ALC US's cost for the tax years you have dual employment in the US and Ireland. If your employment with ALC Ireland pursuant to the Irish Contract results in an increased personal tax liability compared to your current US tax liability, ALC US will provide tax equalization to you, including gross-up assistance to help defray additional tax liabilities you may incur as a result of any payments to you in connection with this assignment being viewed as additional compensation by tax authorities. The tax equalization benefit will be such that the amount of payments that you retain in the aggregate in all jurisdictions is not less than the amount that you would retain if you were subject to income tax solely in the US. To the extent that you are required to pay taxes in any jurisdiction in advance of the payment of the tax equalization benefit (the "Interim Period"), the tax equalization benefit will include interest, which will accrue during the Interim Period at the applicable Federal Rate for the month in which you paid such taxes. ALC US and ALC Ireland, as applicable, will indemnify you and your spouse for any adverse tax consequences in the United States, Ireland, and any other jurisdiction as a result of your entry into the Irish Contract and the Dual Assignment. For the avoidance of doubt, adverse tax consequences include reasonable costs of legal counsel and tax advisors and interest and penalties. The payments required by this paragraph and the preceding paragraph shall be made in no event later than the last day of your taxable year next following your taxable year in which the applicable tax is remitted to the Internal Revenue Service or any other applicable taxing authority. Any indemnification or make whole payments made to you shall be made in a manner that does not cause such payments to constitute deferred compensation under Treas. Reg. 1.409A-1(b)(10) and any successor thereto.

Payments made under clause 12 of the Irish Contract are not to be reduced or modified by any amounts paid under the ALC Severance Agreement.

By accepting this offer, you agree to the provision of relevant information about you from ALC US to ALC Ireland, or vice versa, even if that means moving your personal data across international borders.
