 WHEREAS, the Executive has been employed by the Company as Chief Executive Office and has served as a member of the board of directors of the Company
(the “Board”) pursuant to that certain Employment Agreement dated as of March 26, 2007, between the Company and the Executive (the “Employment Agreement”);

terminate (the “Transition Period”); 
 WHEREAS, the Executive and the Company mutually agree that the Executive’s
employment as Chief Executive Officer of the Company and his service as a member of the Board shall terminate effective as of the Separation Date (defined below); and 
 WHEREAS, the Parties desire to set forth their respective rights and obligations with respect to the Transition Period and with respect to the termination of the Executive’s employment on the Separation Date.

 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and conditions set forth herein, the Parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as
follows: 
  

	1.	Transition Period. 

  

	 	A.	Position and Duties. The Company and the Executive agree that, during the Transition Period, the Executive shall continue to be employed by, and serve as the Chief Executive
Officer of the Company, and shall report directly to the Board. In such position, the Executive shall have the authorities customary for a chief executive officer of a company of similar size and nature as the Company, plus such additional duties,
consistent with the foregoing, as the Board may reasonably assign, including the duty to cooperate with the Board and senior management in connection with their search for the Executive’s successor and to facilitate a smooth transition of
leadership. During the Transition Period, the Executive shall also continue to serve as a member of the Board, including his membership on the Board committees of which he is a member on the date hereof. 

  

	 	B.	 Exclusivity. During the Transition Period, the Executive shall devote such portion of his business time and efforts as may be necessary to the performance of

	 	 
his duties as described above, shall faithfully serve the Company, and shall in all material respects conform to and comply with the lawful and reasonable
directions and instructions given to him by the Board. 

  

	 	C.	Compensation and Benefits. The Executive shall receive, as compensation for his services during the Transition Period, the following compensation and benefits:

  

	 	(i)	Salary. A base salary at an annualized rate of $630,000, to be paid in accordance with regular payroll practices of the Company. 

  

	 	(ii)	Bonus. The Executive shall be eligible to receive an annual bonus up to a maximum of $630,000 for the full calendar year ending December 31, 2008, in accordance with the
Company’s existing Management Incentive Plan (the “MIP”), payable at the same time as bonuses are paid to other senior executives participating in such plan and based on the existing performance criteria established for the
plan and the Executive for 2008; provided, that, amounts determined to be payable to the Executive in accordance with the MIP shall be made to the Executive whether or not he is an executive and an employee on the date such payment is made.
Following the 2008 year, the Executive will only be entitled to bonus compensation as the Board in its sole discretion, may award. 

  

	 	(iii)	MIP Opportunity. The Executive shall be eligible to receive the 30% of his 2008 MIP bonus that was not earned as a result of the Company’s failure to reach the required
EBITDA level under the MIP for payout on achievement of his personal goals for 2008, up to the same percentage of target as was earned under the 70% portion of his 2008 MIP and under the MIP as applicable to all other executives, as part of the
bonus compensation described in Section 1(C)(ii) above. This bonus, equal to the final 2008 MIP achievement percentage (35.1%) of 30% of the Executive’s target bonus amount for 2008, will be awarded at the discretion of the Board
based on the Executive’s performance during, and will be paid at the end of, the Transition Period. This will be in addition to any other bonus compensation that may be awarded in connection with the Transition Period pursuant to
Section 1(C)(ii). 

  

	 	(iv)	Benefits. The Executive, and his eligible dependents, shall continue to participate in the Company’s health and welfare benefits plans as an active employee during the
Transition Period.

 Mr. James K. Sanders 
 1836 Paddock Green Ct. 
 Wichita, KS 67206 
 Dear Jim: 
 The following confirms
the terms of your continued employment with the Company in the position of VP of Finance for Hawker Beechcraft Corporation reporting to Sid Anderson, Chief Financial Officer. The position will have a bi-weekly rate of pay of $9,230.77 which, if
annualized, equals a base salary of $240,000. Your new role and pay rate will commence immediately. 
 In addition, the following terms are agreed:

  

	•	 	 Your Employment Agreement, dated March 26, 2007, with Hawker Beechcraft Corporation (the “Employment Agreement”), be and hereby is terminated and is
of no further force and effect. 

  

	•	 	 Your 2008 Management Incentive Plan (MIP) bonus will be based on the salary and bonus target that was set forth in the Employment Agreement, specifically, $275,000
base pay and seventy-five percent (75%) target bonus. In all other respects, the MIP pay-out for your individual 2008 bonus will operate strictly in accordance with any and all MIP requirements as to funding targets, achievement of financial
and non-financial goals, and discretionary decision-making by the Compensation Committee and/or management. For 2009 and thereafter, you will be entitled to participate in the MIP at a target bonus of fifty percent (50%) of base pay.

  

	•	 	 You will be eligible for future salary increases as per standard Company practice and policy, based on Company and individual performance.

  

	•	 	 You will receive 4 weeks of vacation annually. In addition, you will be paid a lump sum, at the first pay period in January of 2009, for the remainder of your
accrued vacation time of four (4) weeks, less $2,694 excess compensation offset, as agreed. 

  

	•	 	 If your employment with the Company is terminated by the Company, except for cause, at any time within eighteen (18) months from the date that the Compensation
Committee of the Board of Directors approved these new compensation terms, specifically November 7, 2008, you shall be entitled to receive a severance benefit in the amount of one (1) year of base pay. For the avoidance of doubt, this
salary continuation will include only base salary and not any bonus or MIP target payment. If you elect to receive the severance benefit in the form of payroll continuation for one year, you will also be entitled to benefits continuation for the
same one-year period. You may, alternatively, by written notice, elect to receive the severance benefit in a lump sum, cash payment, in which case there would be no attendant benefits continuation. 

  

	•	 	 You agree to forfeit a total of 30,000 unvested options from the discretionary grant(s) awarded to you by the Company, to be spread equally among Time-Vesting,
Performance-Vesting, Type A and Performance-Vesting, Type B options, and spread equally among such options with respect to vesting over the target years 2009, 2010 and 2011.
