““First Amendment Effective Date” means  February 19, 2020.”

(b)The following definition in Section 1.01 of the Existing Credit Agreement are hereby amended and restated in their entirety as follows:
““Permitted Acquisition”” has the meaning specified in Section 5.03(j)(vi); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Engility Acquisition and the Olympus Acquisition shall each be a Permitted Acquisition hereunder.
(c)The definition of “EBITDA” in Section 1.01 of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended by amending and restating clauses (a), (e) and (h) therein in their entirety as follows:
“(a) Interest Expense of, and purchase discount fees in respect of any Receivables Facility incurred by, such Person and its Consolidated Subsidiaries for that period”

“(h) one-time costs and expenses related to any Permitted Acquisition and any other transactions in connection therewith, including any reorganization expenses (in each case whether or not consummated).”
(d)The definition of “Excess Cash Flow” in Section 1.01 of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following clause (x) in the appropriate numerical order as follows:
“ and (x) any purchase discount fees or loss on the sale of accounts receivable incurred pursuant to a Receivables Facility.”
(e)Section 1.07 is hereby amended by adding the below clause (e) to the end thereof:
“(e) If the Borrower or one of its Subsidiaries is entering into a Limited Condition Acquisition, any subsequent calculation of any ratio or basket with respect to the incurrence of Indebtedness or Liens, or the making of Restricted Payments, mergers, Dispositions, Investments, the prepayment, redemption, purchase, defeasance or other satisfaction of Junior Financing, on or following the relevant date of determination and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Acquisition is consummated or the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Acquisition is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated except (solely in the case of any ratio or basket with respect to the making of Restricted Payments or the prepayment, redemption, purchase, defeasance or other satisfaction of Junior Financing) to the extent such calculation on a pro forma basis would result in a lower ratio or increased basket availability (as applicable) than if calculated without giving effect to such Limited Condition Acquisition and the other transactions in connection therewith.”
(f)Section 5.03(a)(viii) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“(viii)     Liens on accounts receivable and related assets incurred in connection with a Receivables Facility in an amount outstanding at any time not to exceed the greater of (x) $300,000,000  and (y) 6.5% of Total Assets;”

(g)Section 5.03(k)(vii) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“(vii)    unsecured Indebtedness of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in an aggregate amount not to exceed the greater of (x) $100,000,000 and (y) such other amount, so long as after giving pro forma effect to the incurrence of such Indebtedness (and the use of proceeds therefrom) and the pro forma adjustments described in Section 1.07, the Leverage Ratio is equal to or less than 4.50 to 1.00; provided that, if the proceeds of such unsecured Indebtedness are being used to finance, in whole or in part, a Permitted Acquisition then the Leverage Ratio set forth in clause (y) above must only be satisfied at the time the acquisition agreement for such Permitted Acquisition is entered into and if the proceeds of such unsecured Indebtedness are being used to finance, in whole or in part, the Olympus Acquisition then the Leverage Ratio set forth in clause (y) above must only be satisfied on the First Amendment Effective Date; provided further that (a) the terms of such Indebtedness are not, when taken as a whole, materially more favorable to the lenders providing such Indebtedness than those applicable to the Facilities or are otherwise on current market terms for such type of Indebtedness, as determined by the Borrower, (b) the final maturity date of such Indebtedness shall be no earlier than 181 days after the final maturity date of any of the Facilities outstanding at the time of incurrence of such Indebtedness, (c) the aggregate amount of principal payments required to be made on such Indebtedness prior to the date that is 181 days after the final maturity date of any of the Facilities outstanding at the time of incurrence of such Indebtedness shall not exceed 10% of the original principal amount of such Indebtedness, (d) on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the incurrence of such Indebtedness (and the use of proceeds therefrom), no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom, in the case of a Permitted Acquisition, at the time the acquisition agreement for such Permitted Acquisition is entered into and in the case of the Olympus Acquisition, on the First Amendment Effective Date and (e) the aggregate amount of all such Indebtedness incurred by Subsidiaries of the Borrower that are not Loan Parties shall not exceed the greater of (x) $100,000,000 and (y) 2.5% of Total Assets; provided further that the foregoing requirements of clause (b) shall not apply to the extent such Indebtedness constitutes a customary bridge facility, so long as the long-term Indebtedness into which any such customary bridge facility is to be converted or exchanged satisfies the requirements of clause (b) and such conversion or exchange is subject only to conditions customary for similar conversions or exchanges as determined by the Borrower;
(h)Section 5.03(k)(xii) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“(xii)     Indebtedness in respect of a Receivables Facility in an amount outstanding at any time not to exceed the greater of (x) $300,000,000 and (y) 6.5% of Total Assets;”
(i)Section 5.03(n)(x) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“(x)     any Disposition or discounts of accounts receivable, or participations therein, and related assets in connection with any Receivables Facility in an amount outstanding at any time not to exceed the greater of (x) $300,000,000 and (y) 6.5% of Total Assets;”
(j)Article IX is hereby amended by inserting a new Section 9.22 as follows:
“Section 9.22.    Acknowledgment Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedge Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):
(a) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or 

under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.
(b) As used in this Section 9.22, the following terms have the following meanings:
“BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party.
“Covered Entity” means any of the following:
(i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b);
(ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or
(iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b).
“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.
“QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).”
SECTION 2.Conditions to Effectiveness of Agreement. The amendment of the Existing Credit Agreement and associated provisions set forth herein shall become effective as of the first date on which the following occur or have been waived in accordance with Section 9.01 of the Existing Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment Effective Date”):
(a)The Administrative Agent shall have received duly executed counterparts of this Agreement from (A) the Loan Parties, (B) Lenders constituting the Required Lenders and (C) the Administrative Agent.
(b)The representations and warranties made in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects.
The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower, the Revolving Credit Lenders, the Term Advance Lenders and the Tranche B Lenders of the First Amendment Effective Date, and such notice shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error. 
For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified above, each Lender party to this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with each document or other matter required hereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to such Person unless an officer of the Administrative Agent responsible for the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents shall have received written notice from such Person prior to the First Amendment Effective Date specifying its objection thereto.

SECTION 3.Representations and Warranties. The Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Lender on the First Amendment Effective Date that:
(a)This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Borrower and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.
(b)The representations and warranties of each Loan Party set forth in the Loan Documents are true and correct (i) in the case of the representations and warranties qualified or modified as to materiality in the text thereof, in all respects and (ii) otherwise, in all material respects, in each case on and as of the First Amendment Effective Date, except in the case of any such representation and warranty that expressly relates to an earlier date, in which case such representation and warranty shall be so true and correct, or true and correct in all material respects, as applicable, on and as of such earlier date, and except that the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.01(e) of the Existing Credit Agreement will be deemed to refer to the most recent annual and quarterly financial statements that have been delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(i) of the Existing Credit Agreement.
(c)No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from the transactions provided for in this Agreement.
SECTION 4.Effects on Loan Documents; No Novation. (a) Except as expressly set forth herein, this Agreement shall not alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Existing Credit Agreement, the Amended Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, all of which shall continue to be in full force and effect and are hereby in all respects ratified and confirmed.  
(b) Except as expressly set forth herein, the execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Lender or the Administrative Agent under any of the Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents or in any way limit, impair or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under the Loan Documents. Nothing herein shall be deemed to entitle the Borrower or any other Loan Party to a consent to, or a waiver, amendment, modification or other change of, any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Amended Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document in similar or different circumstances.
(c) On and after the First Amendment Effective Date, each reference in the Amended Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, “hereof”, “herein” or words of like import, and each reference to the “Credit Agreement”, “thereunder”, “thereof”, “therein” or words of like import in any other Loan Document, shall be deemed a reference to the Amended Credit Agreement. The Borrower and the other parties hereto acknowledge and agree that this Agreement shall constitute a Loan Document for all purposes of the Existing Credit Agreement, the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
(d) Neither this Agreement nor the effectiveness of the Amended Credit Agreement shall extinguish the obligations for the payment of money outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement or discharge or release the Lien or priority of any Security and Guarantee Document or any other security therefor or any guarantee thereof. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as a substitution or novation of the Obligations outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement or the Security and Guarantee Documents or instruments guaranteeing or securing the same, which shall remain in full force and effect, except as may be expressly modified hereby. Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement, the Amended Credit Agreement or any other document contemplated hereby or thereby shall be construed as a release or other discharge of any Loan Party under any Loan Document from any of its obligations and liabilities thereunder.
SECTION 5.Further Assurances. The Borrower agrees to take any further action that is reasonably requested by Administrative Agent to effect the purposes of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.
SECTION 6.APPLICABLE LAW, JURISDICTION, WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE PROVISIONS OF SECTIONS 9.09, 9.12 AND 9.17 OF THE EXISTING CREDIT AGREEMENT ARE HEREBY INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE HEREIN, MUTATIS MUTANDIS.

Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier or email shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Exhibit 4.12

Description of the Registrant's Common Stock 

Registered Pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

 

Atlas Air Worldwide Holdings, Inc. ("AAWW," the "Company," "us" or "our") has one class of securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended: our Common Stock.

 

Description of Capital Stock

The following description of AAWW Common Stock is based on and qualified by (i) the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, (ii) the Certificate of Amendment of the AAWW Certificate of Incorporation, and (iii) the Company's Amended and Restated By-Laws (collectively, the "Documents"). The following description is a summary of the material terms included in the Documents. This summary is qualified in its entirety by the specific terms and provisions contained in the Documents, copies of which are incorporated by reference to exhibits to the AAWW Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and by the provisions of applicable law. 

Common Stock

Authorized Capital Stock. Our authorized capital stock consists of 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock") and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $1.00 par value (the "Preferred Stock").

 

The AAWW Certificate of Incorporation permits the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board"), without further action by the stockholders, to issue authorized Preferred Stock in one or more series with such designations, preferences, special rights, qualifications and limitations and restrictions as the Board may determine from time to time. There are no shares of Preferred Stock currently outstanding. 

 

The preferences, powers, rights, and restrictions of different series of Preferred Stock may differ with respect to dividend rates, amounts payable on liquidation, voting rights, conversion rights, redemption provisions, sinking fund provisions, purchase funds, and other matters. The issuance of Preferred Stock could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to holders of our Common Stock or adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of the holders of our Common Stock and may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our Company.

Voting Rights. The holders of our Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders, including the election of directors, and they do not have cumulative voting rights. Accordingly, the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock entitled to vote in any election of directors can elect all of the directors standing for election, if they so choose.  Certain provisions set forth in the Documents may place restrictions in certain circumstances on the voting rights of stockholders who are not “U.S. citizens,” as that term is defined in the Documents and by applicable laws and regulations.

Dividends. Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any then outstanding Preferred Stock, holders of our Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably those dividends, if any, as may be declared by the board of directors out of legally available funds.

Liquidation Rights. Holders of our Common Stock will share pro rata, upon any liquidation of the Company, in all remaining assets available for distribution to stockholders after payment or providing for the Company's liabilities and the liquidation preference of any outstanding series of Preferred Stock. 

Preemptive Rights. Holders of our Common Stock have no preemptive or conversion rights or other subscription rights and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to our Common Stock.

Assessment. All outstanding shares of our Common Stock are fully paid and non-assessable. 

 

Exhibit 4.12

Listing: Our Common Stock is listed and traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the trading symbol "AAWW."

Certain Anti-Takeover Provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws and Delaware Law

Some provisions of Delaware law and our Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws contain provisions that could make the following transactions more difficult: (i) acquisition of us by means of a tender offer; (ii) acquisition of us by means of a proxy contest or otherwise; or (iii) removal of our incumbent officers and directors. These provisions, summarized below, are intended to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with our board of directors. These provisions also serve to discourage hostile takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids.

Issuance of Preferred Stock. As noted above, the Board, without stockholder approval, has the authority under our certificate of incorporation to issue preferred stock with rights superior to the rights of the holders of Common Stock. As a result, Preferred Stock could be issued quickly and easily, could adversely affect the rights of holders of Common Stock and could be issued with terms calculated to delay or prevent a change in control or make removal of management more difficult.

Stockholder Meetings. A majority of the Board, the chairman of the Board or the chief executive officer may call special meetings of stockholders.

Requirements for Advance Notification of Stockholder Nominations and Proposals. Our by-laws contain advance notice procedures with respect to stockholder proposals and the nomination of candidates for election as directors, other than nominations made by or at the direction of the Board or a committee thereof.

Delaware Anti-Takeover Statute. AAWW is subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which, subject to certain exceptions, prohibits persons deemed “interested stockholders” from engaging in a “business combination” with a Delaware corporation for three years following the date these persons become interested stockholders, unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. Generally, an “interested stockholder” is an entity or person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years prior to the determination of interested stockholder status did own, 15% or more of a corporation’s voting stock. Generally, a “business combination” includes a merger, asset or stock sale, or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. The existence of this provision may have an anti-takeover effect with respect to transactions not approved in advance by the Board.

The provisions of Delaware law and our Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws could have the effect of discouraging others from attempting hostile takeovers and, as a consequence, they may also inhibit temporary fluctuations in the market price of our Common Stock that often result from actual or rumored hostile takeover attempts. Such provisions may also have the effect of preventing changes in our management. It is possible that these provisions could make accomplishing transactions that stockholders may otherwise deem to be in their best interests more difficult.

Limitations on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors

Our Certificate of Incorporation limits the liability of our directors to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law and our By-Laws provide that we will indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by that law.

Transfer Agent and Registrar

The transfer agent and registrar for our Common Stock is Computershare Shareowner Services.
