W I T N E S S E T H
WHEREAS, the Company and Seller are parties to that certain Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of May 8, 2018 (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”), with Quickthree Technology, LLC and the shareholders named therein; and

WHEREAS, among other things, the Asset Purchase Agreement provides for the issuance of 728,004 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”) to Seller; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, the parties hereto desire to enter into this Agreement in order to grant certain registration rights to Seller as set forth below.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, and for other consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows:
1.Definitions.  Capitalized terms used in this Agreement but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement.  As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings:
a.    “Register,” “registered,” and “registration” shall refer to a registration effected by preparing and filing a registration statement in compliance with the Securities Act, and the declaration or order of effectiveness of such registration statement or document by the SEC.
b.    “Registration Statement” shall mean any registration statement of the Company filed with the SEC pursuant to the provisions of Section 2 of this Agreement, which covers the resale of the Restricted Stock on an appropriate form then permitted by the SEC to be used for such registration and the sales contemplated to be made thereby under the Securities Act, or any similar rule that may be adopted by the SEC, and all amendments and supplements to such registration statement, including any pre- and post- effective amendments thereto, in each case including the prospectus contained therein, all exhibits thereto and all materials incorporated by reference therein.
c.    “Restricted Stock” shall mean (i) the Shares; and (ii) any additional shares of common stock of the Company issued or issuable after the date hereof in respect of any of the foregoing securities, by way of a stock dividend or stock split; provided that as to any particular shares of Restricted Stock, such securities shall cease to constitute Restricted Stock when (x) a 

ACTIVE\55732787.v5

Registration Statement with respect to the sale of such securities shall have become effective under the Securities Act and such securities shall have been disposed of thereunder, or (y) such securities are permitted to be transferred immediately pursuant to Rule 144 (or any successor provision to such rule) under the Securities Act without any restrictions on transfer (including under paragraphs (c), (d), (e), (f) and (h) of Rule 144(c)),.
2.Registration of the Restricted Stock.
a.    As soon as practicable, but in any event within sixty (60) days following the date of the Closing, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement covering the resale of all of the Restricted Stock. The Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 (except if the Company is not then eligible to register for resale the Restricted Stock on Form S-3, in which case such registration shall be on Form S-1 or another appropriate form in accordance herewith) and shall contain a “Plan of Distribution” in form and substance agreed upon by the parties hereto and customary for transactions of this type. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as soon as possible, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the earlier of the date when (i) all the Restricted Stock covered by the Registration Statement has been sold pursuant thereto or (ii) the Restricted Stock may be immediately publicly sold without restriction compliance with the requirements of Rule 144(c)(1) of the Securities Act as determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Company’s transfer agent and Seller (the “Effectiveness Period”). The Company’s obligation under this Section is subject to Seller providing the Company with such information regarding Seller and its ownership of shares of the Restricted Stock as the Company determines necessary to include in the Registration Statement.
b.    In connection with the Company’s registration obligations hereunder, the Company shall:
i.    Not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the filing of the Registration Statement or any related Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish to Seller copies of all such documents proposed to be filed which documents will be subject to the review of Seller and one counsel to Seller. The Company shall not file the Registration Statement or any such Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto to which Seller or counsel to Seller shall reasonably object in good faith.
ii.    (A) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments, including post-effective amendments, to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective as to the applicable Restricted Stock for the Effectiveness Period; (B) cause the related Prospectus to be amended or supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented or amended to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act; and (C) respond as promptly as practicable to any comments received from the SEC with respect to the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto and, as promptly as reasonably 

2

possible provide Seller true and complete copies of all correspondence from and to the SEC relating to the Registration Statement.
iii.    Notify Seller as promptly as practicable (and, in the case of (A)(1) below, not less than three (3) Business Days prior to such filing) and (if requested by any such Person) confirm such notice in writing no later than two (2) Business Days following the day (A)(1) when a Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement is proposed to be filed; (2) when the SEC notifies the Company whether there will be a “review” of such Registration Statement and whenever the SEC comments in writing on such Registration Statement (the Company shall provide true and complete copies thereof and all written responses thereto to Seller); and (3) with respect to the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective; (B) of any request by the SEC or any other Federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or Prospectus or for additional information; (C) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement covering any or all of the Restricted Stock or the initiation of any Proceedings for that purpose; (D) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Restricted Stock for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any Proceeding for such purpose; and (E) of the occurrence of any event or passage of time that makes the financial statements included in the Registration Statement ineligible for inclusion therein or any statement made in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires any revisions to the Registration Statement, Prospectus or other documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as the case may be, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
iv.    Use its commercially reasonable efforts to avoid the issuance of, or, if issued, obtain the withdrawal of (A) any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or (B) any suspension of the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Restricted Stock for sale in any jurisdiction, at the earliest practicable moment.
v.    Furnish to Seller, without charge, at least one conformed copy of the final Registration Statement and each amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, and all exhibits to the extent requested by such Person (including those previously furnished or incorporated by reference) promptly after the filing of such documents with the SEC.
vi.    Promptly deliver to Seller, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus or Prospectuses (including each form of prospectus) and each amendment or supplement thereto as Seller may reasonably request. The Company hereby consents to the use of such Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto by Seller in connection 

3

with the offering and sale of the Restricted Stock covered by such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto.
vii.    Prior to any public offering of Restricted Stock, use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify such Restricted Stock for offer and sale under the securities laws of all jurisdictions within the United States reasonably requested by Seller, and to keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the Effectiveness Period and to do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Restricted Stock covered by the Registration Statement; provided, that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or subject the Company to any material tax in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject.
viii.    Cooperate with Seller to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Restricted Stock to be delivered to a transferee pursuant to the Registration Statement, which certificates shall be free of all restrictive legends, and to enable such Restricted Stock to be in such denominations and registered in such names as any such Persons may request.
ix.    Use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Restricted Stock covered by a Registration Statement to be listed on each securities exchange, interdealer quotation system or other market on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed.
x.    Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by clause (b)(iii)(C) or (D), as promptly as practicable, take all such action as is necessary to cause the removal of any such stop order or any such suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification.
xi.    Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by clause (b)(iii)(E), as promptly as reasonably possible, prepare a supplement or amendment, including a post-effective amendment, to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, and file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered, neither the Registration Statement nor such Prospectus will contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
xii.    Comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC.
c.    All fees and expenses incident to the performance of or compliance with the provisions of Section 2 of this Agreement by the Company shall be borne by the Company whether or not any Restricted Stock are sold pursuant to the Registration Statement. The fees and expenses referred to in the foregoing sentence shall include, without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees (including, without limitation, fees and expenses (A) with respect to filings required to be made with The Nasdaq National Market or other applicable securities exchange, and (B) in compliance 

4

with applicable state securities laws), (ii) printing expenses (including, without limitation, expenses of printing certificates for Restricted Stock and of printing prospectuses if the printing of prospectuses is reasonably requested by the holders of a majority of the Restricted Stock included in the Registration Statement), (iii) messenger, telephone and delivery expenses, (iv) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, (v) Securities Act liability insurance, if the Company so desires such insurance, and (vi) fees and expenses of all other Persons retained by the Company in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Section 2. In addition, the Company shall be responsible for all of its internal expenses incurred in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Section 2 (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit and the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Restricted Stock on any securities exchange as required hereunder.
d.    With a view to making available to the holders of Restricted Stock the benefits of Rule 144 (or its successor rule) under the Securities Act and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit such holders to sell Restricted Stock to the public without registration, the Company covenants and agrees to: (i) make and keep adequate current public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, until the earlier of (A) such date as all of the Restricted Stock may be resold to the public without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (B) such date as all of the Restricted Stock shall have been resold; and (ii) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required to be so filed pursuant to Rule 144(c) under the Securities Act in order to permit the holders of the Restricted Stock to be entitled to transfer the Restricted Stock without registration pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, and (C) such other information as may be reasonably requested in order to avail such holder of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any such Restricted Stock without registration.  [NTD: Regarding deletion – the cover of Periodic Filings already makes this rep]
3.Indemnification.  
a.    The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, Seller, its officers and directors and each person who controls Seller (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) arising out of or based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information furnished in writing to the Company by Seller expressly for use therein. 
b.    In connection with any Registration Statement in which Seller is participating, Seller shall furnish to the Company in writing such information regarding Seller and its ownership of shares of the Restricted Stock as is reasonably required to effect the registration of Seller’s Restricted Stock under such Registration Statement or Prospectus. To the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors and officers and agents and 

5

each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or based upon any untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information furnished in writing by Seller expressly for use therein.
c.    Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. 
d.    The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities. The Company and Seller also agree to make such provisions as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party for contribution to such party in the event the Company’s or Seller’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason.
e.    If the indemnification provided under Section 3 hereof from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission 

6

or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action; provided, however, that, in any such case, Seller shall in no event be required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all such shares of Restricted Stock offered and sold by Seller pursuant to such Registration Statement. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. 
4.Entire Agreement.  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all other prior agreements, understandings and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.
5.Amendment and Modifications.  This Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented except by an instrument or instruments in writing signed by Seller and the Company.
6.Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, provided, however, that no party hereto may assign its rights or delegate its obligations under this Agreement without the express prior written consent of the other party hereto.  Nothing in this Agreement is intended to confer upon any person not a party hereto (and their successors and assigns) any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement.
7.Notices.  All notices, requests, consents, claims, demands, waivers and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given (a) when delivered by hand (with written confirmation of receipt); (b) when received by the addressee if sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier (receipt requested); (c) on the date sent by facsimile or e-mail of a PDF document (with confirmation of transmission) if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, and on the next Business Day if sent after normal business hours of the recipient or (d) on the third day after the date mailed, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid. Such communications must be sent to the respective parties at the following addresses (or at such other address for a party as shall be specified in a notice given in accordance with this Section):

or increase or decrease the voting power of, such person with
respect to the shares of any class or series of the Company’s

the shares of any class or series of the Company’s equity
securities; and (b) the term “Synthetic Equity
Interests” means any derivative, swap or other
transaction or series of transactions engaged in, directly or
indirectly, by such person, the purpose or effect of which is to
give such person economic risk similar to ownership of equity
securities of any class or series of the Company, including due to
the fact that the value of such derivative, swap or other
transactions are determined by reference to the price, value or
volatility of any shares of any class or series of the
Company’s equity securities, or which derivative, swap or
other transactions provide, directly or indirectly, the opportunity
to profit from any increase in the price or value of shares of any
class or series of the Company’s equity securities, without
regard to whether (i) the derivative, swap or other
transactions convey any voting rights in such equity securities to
such person; (ii) the derivative, swap or other transactions
are required to be, or are capable of being, settled through
delivery of such equity securities; or (iii) such person may
have entered into other transactions that hedge or mitigate the
economic effect of such derivative, swap or other
transactions.

Company hereby agrees to include the Air T Nominees in its slate of
nominees for election as directors of the Company at the
Company’s 2018 and 2019 Annual Meetings of Shareholders (the
“Covered
Meetings”). With respect to the Covered Meetings,
the Company will solicit
proxies for each of the Air T Nominees in substantially the same
manner as it has in prior years with respect to the Board’s
nominees, will recommend to shareholders that they vote in favor of
each of the Air T Nominees, and will cause all proxies received by
the Company in favor of the Air T Nominees to be voted in favor of
their election to the Board. During the Standstill Period,
the Company’s Board will take no action to remove any of the
Air T Nominees from the Board pursuant to Section 302A.223,
Subdivision 2, of the Minnesota Statutes. The Company will hold its
2018 Annual Meeting not earlier than July 20, 2018 with a record
date not earlier than May 21, 2018.

 

(ii)    
    The parties acknowledge that Mr. Zenz has
indicated his intention not to stand for reelection to the Board at
the Company’s 2019 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. The
Company agrees that the Board will not include Mr. Zenz in its
slate of nominees for election as directors of the Company at the
2019 Annual Meeting and will not thereafter appoint him to the
Board at any time during the Standstill Period.

 

(iii)           The
Board will set the size of the Board at five (5) members effective
as of immediately after the 2019 Annual Meeting and will not take
any action to set the size of the Board above five (5) members
effective at any time from and after the 2019 Annual Meeting and
before the 2020 Annual Meeting; provided, however, that the Board
may set the size of the Board at six (6) members and appoint an
additional member to the Board during such period but only if the
appointment of such additional director is either (x) mutually
acceptable to the Board and to the Shareholder Group or (y)
approved by all of the continuing members of the Board (that is,
all then-current members of the Board other than Mr. Zenz). In no
event will the Board take any action to set the size of the Board
above six (6) members effective at any time before the 2020 Annual
Meeting.

 

(c)           As
a condition to the Company’s appointment of each Air T
Nominee to the Board and his or her subsequent nomination for
election as a director of the Company at the Covered Meetings, each
Air T Nominee shall (i) provide to the Company such information as
is required to be or is customarily disclosed for directors,
candidates for directors and their affiliates and representatives,
in proxy statements or other filings under applicable law or stock
exchange rules or listing standards or is otherwise necessary for
inclusion of such Air T Nominee in the Board’s slate of
nominees, to the extent that the Company solicits the same
information from all of its directors in accordance with past
practices, (ii) consent to serve as a director of the Company
if elected, and (iii) agree to be bound by all policies, codes
and guidelines applicable to all directors of the Company,
including the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, and to preserve
the confidentiality of the Company’s business and
information, including discussions or matters considered in
meetings of the Board or Board committees, to the same extent that
the Company requires all of its directors to make any such
agreement in accordance with past practices. At all times prior to
the 2020 Annual Meeting, all committees of the Board shall include
at least one of the Air T Nominees. The Air T Nominees shall
receive the same compensation as members of the Board as all other
non-employee directors of the Company.

 

(d)           If,
during the Standstill Period, either Air T Nominee no longer serves
as a director of the Company, and so long as the Shareholder Group
meets the Minimum Ownership Threshold, the Shareholder Group shall
be entitled to name a substitute nominee, who, provided such
substitute nominee (i) meets the conditions set forth in
Section 4(c),
(ii) meets the director-independence standards of the Nasdaq Stock
Market (“Nasdaq”), (iii) is not an
Affiliate or Associate of any Member of the Shareholder Group, (iv)
is not a former member of the Board, and (v) is reasonably
acceptable to the Board following review of the substitute
nominee’s qualifications for director, shall be nominated, in
the case of the annual meeting, or appointed, in the case of a
mid-term vacancy, by the Board. Any such substitute nominee,
following appointment, shall be deemed an Air T Nominee for all
purposes hereunder.

 

(e)           Notwithstanding
the foregoing, each Air T Nominee shall tender his or her
resignation from the Board and any committee of the Board on which
he or she then sits (it being understood that it shall be in the
Board’s sole discretion whether to accept or reject such
resignation) if at any time during the Standstill Period the
Shareholder Group ceases collectively to beneficially own, in the
aggregate, at least the Minimum Ownership Threshold. Following the
occurrence of the foregoing, the Company shall have no further
obligations under this Section 4.

 

(f)           At
all times while any Air T Nominee is serving as a member of the
Board no Member of the Shareholder Group shall pay any compensation
(within the meaning of Nasdaq Rule 5250(b)(3)) to such Air T
Nominee for his or her service as a member of the
Board.

 

(g)           The
Company’s Board shall cause to be included as a proposal to
be voted on by shareholders at the 2018 Annual Meeting the vote
required under Section 302A.671, Subdivision 3, of the Minnesota
Statutes (the “Minnesota Voting
Statute”) in order to grant full voting rights to the
shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Shareholder Group
and its Affiliates, as set forth in the Information Statement,
dated January 19, 2018, as amended, provided by the Shareholder
Group and its Affiliates to the Company, and all additional shares
acquired by the Shareholder Group and its Affiliates up to an
aggregate of 33-one/third% of the outstanding Common Stock (the
“One Share/One Vote
Proposal”). The Company’s Board will not
recommend to shareholders that they vote against the One Share/One
Vote Proposal but shall remain fully neutral on the proposal, and
the Company will not take any action to make any solicitation in
opposition to the One Share/One Vote Proposal. The Company will
provide a copy in advance to the Shareholder Group of any proxy
statement or other proxy solicitation material disseminated by the
Company relating to the 2018 Annual Meeting and/or the One
Share/One Vote Proposal. In connection with the 2018 Annual
Meeting, the Company will obtain and provide copies to the
Shareholder Group of its list of record holders and list of
non-objecting beneficial holders as of the record date for the
meeting. The Company agrees to reasonably cooperate with the
Shareholder Group relating to any voting procedures implemented by
the Company at the 2018 Annual Meeting to facilitate voting under
the Minnesota Voting Statute so that the Shareholder Group may
solicit proxies in favor of the One Share/One Vote
Proposal.

 

(h)           During
the Standstill Period, the Company shall cause its Chief Executive
Officer and its Chairman of the Board to hold at least one
90-minute meeting per fiscal quarter with one or more directors
and/or executive officers of Air T, as Air T shall reasonably
designate in advance, to discuss such information regarding the
Company and its business, operations, strategies, and prospects as
the Shareholder Group shall reasonably request. Unless otherwise
agreed, such meetings shall be held at the offices of Air T in
Minneapolis, Minnesota, via conference call, or both. In connection
therewith, each member of the Shareholder Group and each individual
participating in such meetings on behalf of Air T shall execute a
customary confidentiality agreement with the Company, in form and
substance reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Shareholder
Group, which agreement shall survive the termination of the
Standstill Period and of this Agreement.

result of this Agreement;

 

(iii)           solicit
proxies or written consents of shareholders, or otherwise conduct
any nonbinding referendum with respect to Common Stock, or make, or

seek to call, or to request the call of, any meeting of the
shareholders of the Company, including by written consent, or seek
to make, or make, a shareholder proposal at any meeting of the
shareholders of the Company or make a request for a list of the

other person to initiate such proposal or request), except with

any way assist or facilitate any other person to effect or seek,

participate in (i) any acquisition of any material assets or
businesses, of the Company or any of its subsidiaries,
(ii) any tender offer or exchange offer, merger, acquisition
or other business combination involving the Company or any of its
subsidiaries, or (iii) any recapitalization, restructuring,
liquidation, dissolution or other extraordinary transaction with
respect to the Company or any of its subsidiaries (each, an
“Extraordinary

(including without limitation the filing of any document or report
with the SEC or any other governmental agency or any disclosure to

otherwise seek (in any manner that would require public disclosure
by any of the Members of the Shareholder Group or their Affiliates
or Associates) to obtain any waiver, consent under, or any
amendment of, any provision of this Agreement;

 

(vii)           (A) make

solicitations by the Company), or (C) take any action that
could require the Company to make any public disclosure relating to
such intent, purpose, plan, proposal or condition, or any other
matter set forth in this Agreement;

 

(viii)        
except pursuant to Section
6, acquire, offer or propose to acquire, or agree to
acquire, on the market or through a private transaction, directly
or indirectly, whether by purchase, tender or exchange offer,
through the acquisition of control of another person, by joining a
partnership, limited partnership, syndicate or other group

laws (including, without limitation, Section 14(d) of the
Exchange Act) and (iii) conditioned upon the tender and

sell such securities.

 

8.           Voting
Procedures

 

. The
Members of the Shareholder Group shall comply with all lawful
voting procedures established by the Company to enable the Company
to comply with the provisions of the Minnesota Voting Statute. The
Company and Air T shall agree upon the procedures to be followed in
presenting the One Share/One Vote Proposal to shareholders, which
shall include procedures that allow shareholders to vote at the
meeting by proxy (provided that shares held beneficially or of
record by Members of the Shareholder Group shall be voted at the
meeting by ballot). The Company shall appoint an outside,
independent inspector of elections to oversee the voting at the
2018 Annual Meeting.

 

9.           Press

release attached hereto as Exhibit A (the

Release”). None of the parties hereto will make any
public statements that are inconsistent with, or otherwise contrary
to, the statements in the Press Release. The Company and the
Shareholder Group shall not, and shall cause their respective
Affiliates and Associates and representatives not to,
(i) prior to the issuance of the Press Release, issue any
press release or public announcement regarding this Agreement
without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, and
(ii) during the Standstill Period, make any public statement,
disclosure or announcement with respect to this Agreement that is
inconsistent with the Press Release, except as required by
applicable law or regulation, pursuant to the rules or listing
standards of any stock exchange or with the prior written consent
of the other party.

.
During the Standstill Period, none of the parties hereto (nor any
of their respective subsidiaries, Affiliates, Associates,

media, or securities analyst) concerning any other party or, with
respect to the Company, any of its past, present or future
directors, officers, employees, other affiliates, agents,
attorneys, or representatives, which disparages such other party or
any of such other party’s respective past, present, or future
directors, officers, employees or other affiliates, or any of their
respective practices, procedures, business operations, products or
services, in any manner; provided, for the benefit of clarification
and the avoidance of doubt, that this provision shall not in any
way prohibit members of the Shareholder Group from communicating
directly with the Company and its management and Board in a
non-public manner to communicate their concerns or raise issues
related to the Company, its performance, the performance of
management or any other matters related to the Company; provided
further, that the restrictions in this Section 10 shall not
(i) apply in any compelled testimony or production of
information, whether by legal process, subpoena or as part of a
response to a request for information from any governmental
authority with jurisdiction over the party from whom information is
sought, in each case, to the extent required, (ii) prohibit
any person from reporting possible violations of federal law or
regulation to any governmental authority pursuant to
Section 21F of the Exchange Act or Rule 21F promulgated
thereunder, or (iii) impose any liability on any person for
non-public statements that express factual matters or such
person’s opinion in good faith.

suit or proceeding brought against any party in any such court.
Each party, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, irrevocably and
unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any
action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the

exercise of such right, power or remedy by such party preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right, power or remedy. All remedies hereunder are cumulative and

18.           Interpretation
and Construction

 

. When
a reference is made in this Agreement to a Section, such reference
shall be to a Section of this Agreement, unless otherwise
indicated. The headings contained in this Agreement are for
reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning
or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words
“include,” “includes” and
“including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be
deemed to be followed by the words “without
limitation.” The words “hereof, “herein”
and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used
in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not
to any particular provision of this Agreement, unless the context
clearly otherwise requires. The word “will” shall be
construed to have the same meaning as the word “shall.”
The words “dates hereof” will refer to the date of this
Agreement. The word “or” is not exclusive. The
definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the
singular as well as the plural forms of such terms. Any agreement,
instrument, law, rule, regulation or statute defined or referred to
herein means, unless otherwise indicated, such agreement,
instrument, law, rule, regulation or statute as from time to time
amended, modified or supplemented. Each of the parties hereto
acknowledges that it has been represented by counsel of its choice
throughout all negotiations that have preceded the execution and
delivery of this Agreement, and that it has executed and delivered
the same with the advice of such counsel. Each party cooperated and
