A-1 EXHIBIT A CONTINGENT EARNOUT 1. Contingent Earnout Payments. Beginning on the fiscal year that begins on April 1, 2024, and extending through five (5) consecutive fiscal years, ending on March 31, 2029 (the “Earnout Period”), Seller shall be eligible to receive certain earnout payments (the “Earnout Payments”), which shall be payable in accordance with the following: a. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Seller shall be eligible to receive an Earnout Payment in each fiscal year where the Company achieves a minimum of $7,000,000.00 in Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in Section h herein), in which case the Company shall pay Seller an Earnout Payment equal to 9.14% of the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA above $7,000,000.00, the amount of which shall be uncapped. For avoidance of doubt, no Earnout Payments shall be made for fiscal years where the Company generates less than $7,000,000.00 in Adjusted EBITDA. b. Earnout Payments shall be calculated annually by the Company, and such calculation (the “Earnout Statement”) shall be completed and delivered to Seller within thirty (30) days following the completion of the annual audits of both the Company and Air T, Inc. (the “Earnout Notice Date”). c. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Earnout Payments shall be subordinated and subject to the payment in full of all then outstanding Senior Debt (as that term is defined in the Note) of the Company. No Earnout Payments shall be made during the Earnout Period if such payment causes or would cause a Loan Default (as that term is defined in the Note) or such Loan Default otherwise exists of any Senior Debt. In such case, any Earnout Payments due and owing to Seller shall be deferred until the Company is no longer reasonably at risk of a Loan Default (based on the Company’s rolling twelve (12)-month forecast jointly prepared in accordance with the Note) or has been authorized by the holder of any Senior Debt that it can resume making Earnout Payments. Any deferred Earnout Payments shall accrue interest at a rate equal to the Note rate, for a period not to exceed twelve (12) consecutive months or eighteen (18) combined months, whichever is less. Accrued interest shall be paid in a lump sum, together with the Earnout Payment next coming due following deferral hereunder. d. Seller shall have thirty (30) days from the Earnout Notice Date to review and respond to the Earnout Statement. If Seller objects to the Company’s calculation of the Earnout Statement, then Seller shall deliver written notice to the Company setting forth a reasonably detailed description of the basis of the objection (the “Objection Notice”). If no Objection Notice is received by the Company prior to the end of the thirty (30)- day review period, then Seller shall be deemed to have accepted the Earnout Statement for all purposes hereunder, and the Company shall, within five (5) business days thereafter, pay the Earnout Payment to Seller. If the Company timely receives an Objection Notice, the Company shall promptly pay any undisputed amount of the Earnout Payment, and the Company and Seller shall work in good faith to resolve any disputed amount within thirty (30) days thereafter (the “Resolution Period”). Failing
![slide11](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/353184/000035318424000059/membershipinterestredemp011.jpg)
A-2 resolution during the Resolution Period, the dispute shall be referred to an independent arbitration accountant (the “Independent Accountant”), agreed to by the parties, and not otherwise affiliated with the Company, Seller, or their affiliates within the last three (3) years (the “Independence Standard”), and if the parties are unable to agree on the designation of such Independent Accountant within ten (10) days following expiration of the Resolution Period, then each party shall name an accountant in writing, and the accountants so named shall mutually select a third accountant meeting the Independence Standard to serve as the Independent Accountant. If one party selects an accountant under the previous sentence (the “Selecting Party”) and the other party fails to select an accountant within ten (10) days following receipt of the written selection of the Selecting Party, then the accountant chosen by the Selecting Party shall serve as the Independent Accountant. Upon the final resolution of such dispute, the Company shall, within fifteen (15) days thereafter, pay any additional Earnout Payment, if any, to Seller, including interest from the Earnout Notice Date to the date of payment at the rate of the then current ten (10)-year Treasury bond yield plus 250 basis points (the “Prescribed Rate”). The Company and Seller shall each pay one half (1/2) of the fees and costs of the Independent Accountant. e. The Company shall promptly provide Seller and its agents with reasonable access to the Company’s books, records, and other information to allow Seller to calculate the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA, evaluate the accuracy of the Company Earnout Statement, and prepare its Objection Notice. Failure of the Company to provide the access specified herein (which access may include the transmission of electronic copies of supporting materials to Seller or its designated agents) shall extend Seller’s review period for delivering its Objection Notice for a reasonable period of time following the date on which such materials and access have been provided. Nothing contained herein limits the books, records, and other information to which Xxxxxx is entitled as a Member of the Company under applicable law. f. The decision of the Independent Account hereunder shall be final and binding on the parties only in the case in which the total cumulative value disputed is less than $2 million. If the cumulative amount in dispute exceeds $2 Million, absent the written agreement of the parties to some other procedure, the parties shall be free to pursue all remedies available at law or in equity. g. If Seller commences legal action to collect amounts that the Independent Accountant determines are due, Seller shall be entitled to recover its costs, expenses, and reasonable attorney fees from the Company. h. For the purposes of this Agreement: (1) “EBITDA” shall mean the Company’s Net Income (Loss), with the following adjustments: (a) Add to Net Income (Loss) Interest Expense,
![slide12](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/353184/000035318424000059/membershipinterestredemp012.jpg)

(2) “Adjusted EBITDA” shall mean the Company’s EBITDA, with the following adjustments: (a) Subtract from EBITDA Engine Depreciation, (b) Subtract from EBITDA Inventory Write-Downs, (c) Subtract from EBITDA Realized Loss on Engine Sales, (d) Subtract from EBITDA OCAS Note Interest, and (e) Add to EBITDA Interest Income earned on leased assets; and (f) Adjusted EBITDA shall be adjusted to account for other non-recurring income (subtractions) and expense (additions) items that were not included in EBITDA. This includes, but is not limited to, any non-cash stock-related compensation expenses. (3) A detailed illustration of the calculation of the Company’s EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is attached hereto as Schedule 1, and is incorporated herein.

A-4 i. During the Earnout Period, the Company shall not take any actions having the primary purpose or material effect of shifting or transferring Company revenue or earnings to its parent or affiliates companies controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Company or Air T. Any revenue or earnings which are shifted or transferred in violation hereof shall be added to the Adjusted EBITDA when calculating the Earnout Payments.
