EXHIBIT 4.21
THIS THIRD CHANGE IN TERMS AGREEMENT (this “Change in Terms”), is made and entered into
effective as of November 10, 2005, by and between AirNet Systems, Inc., an Ohio corporation
(“Borrower”) and The Huntington National Bank, a national banking association, with a banking
office at 00 Xxxxx Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx, Xxxx 00000, in its capacity as administrative agent
(“Agent”) for and on behalf of the Lenders from time to time party to the Credit Agreement
described below. Each capitalized term used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning
ascribed to it in the Credit Agreement.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
A. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of May 28, 2004 (as
amended by the First Change in Terms and the Second Change in Terms, and as the same may be
further amended, modified, supplemented, extended, restated or replaced from time to time, the
“Credit Agreement”) among Borrower, the Lenders, and the Agent, the Lenders agreed to provide
certain credit facilities to the Borrower (collectively, the “Loans”).
B. Borrower and Agent entered into a certain Change in Terms Agreement dated November 12,
2004, pursuant to which certain terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement were modified (the
“First Change in Terms”).
C. Borrower and Agent entered into a certain Second Change in Terms Agreement dated March 24,
2005, pursuant to which certain terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement were further modified
(the “Second Change in Terms”).
D. Borrower, having failed to comply with the financial covenants required pursuant to Section
6.24 of the Credit Agreement, has requested that Agent waive the Default existing under the Credit
Agreement as a result of Borrower’s failure to maintain such financial covenants, and acting upon
the authority of the Required Lenders, Agent has agreed to do so on certain conditions, including
without limitation, that Borrower enter into this Change in Terms.
AGREEMENT
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, Agent
and Borrower hereby agree as follows:

consolidated basis, plus (b) for the fiscal quarter ending September 30,

Income, extraordinary gains (determined in accordance with Agreement
Accounting Principles) realized other than in the ordinary course of

quarter ending September 30, 2005 only, an amount equal to $16,073,000.00
(which reflects the non-cash impairment charge recognized by Borrower in the
fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2005), minus, to the extent included in
Consolidated Net Income, extraordinary gains (determined in accordance with
Agreement Accounting Principles) realized other than in the ordinary course

(d) Neither this Change in Terms nor any other document, certificate or written

Terms, as applicable, and (ii) to incur the obligations provided for herein, all of which

action, as applicable;
(f) No consent, waiver or authorization of, or filing with, any person or any

connection with the borrowings under the Loan Documents, or the execution, delivery,

(g) This Change in Terms and the Loan Documents constitute the legal, valid and binding
obligation of Borrower and the Guarantors enforceable against them in accordance with the
terms hereof and thereof, as applicable; and

or as provided by law, except to the extent expressly provided herein. No previous modification,
extension or compromise entered into with respect to any indebtedness of Borrower to Agent and/or
the Lenders shall constitute a course of dealing or be inferred or construed as constituting an
express or implied understanding to enter into any future modification, extension or compromise,
whether or not the same was in writing. No past, present or future delay on the part of Agent
and/or any Lender in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof, or
otherwise prejudice Agent’s or any Lender’s rights, powers or remedies.

Agent, the unpaid principal balance of the Loans, together with interest as provided in the Credit
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and hereby promises to perform all of the covenants,

this Change in Terms).

accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Ohio (without respect to conflict of law
principles). Further, the parties hereto intend that this Change in Terms shall be in compliance
with all applicable laws and shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. If any provision
of this Change in Terms shall be illegal or unenforceable with respect to the Loan Documents, such
provision shall be deemed cancelled to the extent necessary, but the remaining provisions shall not
be affected hereby.

deliver any and all further documents and to take any and all other steps or actions reasonably
deemed necessary by Agent to effectuate this Change in Terms.

including, without limitation, the Guarantors and any other guarantor, co-borrower, pledgor or
other accommodation party or party granting collateral security for the Loans and other obligations
under the Loan Documents and otherwise, that the obligations and agreements of each such party to
the Lenders and/or the Agent under the Loan Documents, as applicable, or otherwise, shall continue
in full force and effect with respect to the indebtedness evidenced and secured by the Loan
Documents, irrespective of any modification made in this Change in Terms, which acknowledgement and
acceptance shall be in a writing executed by each such party and satisfactory to Agent.

15. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. BORROWER AND AGENT HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
JUDICIAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER (WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT,

TERMS OR ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER.
16. Confession of Judgment. Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes any

any action on this Change in Terms or any of the Loan Documents at any time after the same becomes
due as herein or therein provided in any court of record situated in the county where this warrant
was signed (being Franklin County, Ohio), or in the county where Borrower then resides or can be
