      6164796.v4  OVERLINE NOTE      U.S. $5,000,000.00              Dated as of June 9, 2022  Minnetonka, Minnesota        FOR VALUE RECEIVED, on the Overline Termination Date (as defined in the Credit  Agreement hereinafter defined) the undersigned, AIR T, INC., a Delaware corporation (the  “Maker”), promises to pay to the order of MINNESOTA BANK & TRUST, a Minnesota state  banking corporation (the “Lender”), the principal sum of FIVE MILLION AND NO/100THS  DOLLARS (U.S. $5,000,000.00) or, if less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all  Overline Loans (as hereinafter defined) made by the Lender to the Maker pursuant to the Credit  Agreement.    Interest.  The Maker promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount hereof from the  date hereof until such principal amount is paid in full at a fluctuating annual rate of interest equal  to the greater of (a) 2.50% or (b) the sum of (i) the Prime Rate (hereinafter defined), as in effect  on the date hereof and as the same may adjust from time to time, plus (ii) 0.50%. Interest  accrued during each calendar month shall be due and payable on the first day of the following  calendar month, with the first such interest payment due on July 1, 2022.  Interest shall also be  payable at maturity and interest accrued after maturity shall be payable on demand.  The term  “Prime Rate” shall mean the prime rate published in the money rates section of the Wall Street  Journal, floating, and changing with each change of such published rate, or if the Wall Street  Journal ceases to publish such rate, as published in the Federal Reserve Board’s Statistical  Release H. 15.  If the Prime Rate becomes unavailable during the term of this loan, Lender may  designate a substitute index after notifying Maker.  Lender will tell Maker the current Index rate  upon Maker’s request.  Maker understands that Lender may make loans based on other rates as  well.  Interest on the unpaid principal balance of this Note will be calculated as described in the  “INTEREST CALCULATION METHOD” paragraph.  NOTICE:  under no circumstances will  the interest rate on this Note be more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law.    Payments.  Both principal and interest are payable in lawful money of the United States of  America to the Lender at 9800 Bren Road East, Suite 200, Minnetonka, MN  55343 (or other  location specified by the Lender) in immediately available funds.  By its execution of this Note,  the Maker authorizes the Lender to charge from time to time against any of Maker’s depository  accounts maintained with the Lender any such payments when due and the Lender will use its  reasonable efforts to notify the Maker of such charges.    Interest Calculation Method.  Interest on this Note shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day  year and the actual number of days elapsed in any portion of a month in which interest is due.  If  any payment to be made by the Maker hereunder shall become due on a day other than a  DocuSign Envelope ID: 70B9FD62-0052-408A-BE24-C0025BA3E219 

 

OVERLINE NOTE  Page 2      U.S. $5,000,000.00              June 9, 2022            Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.    Prepayment; Minimum Interest Charge.  In any event, even upon full prepayment of this  Note, Maker understands that Lender is entitled to a minimum interest charge of $10.00.  Other  than Maker’s obligations to pay any minimum interest charge, Maker may pay without penalty  all or a portion of the amount earlier than it is due.  Early payments will not, unless agreed to by  Lender in writing, relieve Maker of Maker’s obligation to continue to make payments of accrued  unpaid interest.  Rather, early payment will reduce the principal balance due.  Maker agrees not  to send Lender payments marked “paid in full”, “without recourse”, or similar language.  If  Maker sends such a payment, Lender may accept it without losing any of  Lender’s rights under  this Note, and Maker will remain obligated to pay any further amount owed to Lender.  All  written communications concerning disputed amounts, including any check or other payment  instrument that indicates that the payment constitutes “payment in full” of the amount owed or  that is tendered with other conditions or limitations or as full satisfaction of a disputed amount  must be mailed or delivered to:  Minnesota Bank & Trust, 9800 Bren Road East, Suite 200,  Minnetonka, MN  55343.    Late Charge.  If a payment due hereunder is not made within seven days after the date when  due, Maker shall pay to Lender a late payment charge of 5% of the amount of the overdue  payment to compensate Lender for a portion of the cost related to handling the overdue payment.    Interest After Default.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, including failure to pay  upon final maturity, the interest rate on this Note shall be increased by adding an additional  3.000 percentage point margin (“Default Rate Margin”).  The Default Rate Margin shall also  apply to each succeeding interest rate change that would have applied had there been no default.   However, in no event will the interest rate exceed the maximum interest rate limitations under  applicable law.    Credit Agreement.  This Note is the Overline Note referred to in, and is entitled to the benefits  of, the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of August 31, 2021 (as amended,  modified, supplemented or restated from time to time being the “Credit Agreement”; capitalized  terms not otherwise defined herein being used herein as therein defined) between the Maker, its  co-Borrower, Jet Yard, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company, and the Lender.  The Credit  Agreement, among other things, (i) provides for the making of Overline Loans (the “Overline  Loans”) by the Lender to the Maker from time to time in an aggregate amount not to exceed at  any time outstanding the dollar amount first above mentioned, the indebtedness of the Maker  resulting from each such Overline Loan being evidenced by this Note; (ii) contains provisions for  DocuSign Envelope ID: 70B9FD62-0052-408A-BE24-C0025BA3E219
