RE: Amendment No. 1 – Incremental Covered Aircraft

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Reference is made to that certain Amended and Restated Capacity Purchase Agreement, dated as of November 19, 2020 and made effective as of January 1, 2020, between American Airlines, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“American”) and Mesa Airlines, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Contractor”) (as amended from time to time in accordance with the provisions thereof, and together with all attachments, exhibits and schedules thereto, the “Capacity Purchase Agreement”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Capacity Purchase Agreement.

The Parties desire to amend the Capacity Purchase Agreement to add certain CRJ-900 Covered Aircraft (the “Incremental Covered Aircraft”) to be used to provide Regional Airline Services in connection with Scheduled Flights all on the terms and conditions as set forth in this amendment (this “Amendment No. 1”). For and in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, American, on the one hand, and Contractor, on the other hand, agree as follows:

1.	Amendments and Supplements.

The Incremental Covered Aircraft shall be added to the Capacity Purchase Agreement beginning January 1, 2021 and (unless otherwise Withdrawn prior thereto pursuant to the provisions of the Capacity Purchase Agreement, including Section 12.02 thereof) ending on the date determined by American in American’s sole discretion (as further described in clause c below, the “Incremental Covered Aircraft Termination Date”), in accordance with the following schedule:


Time Period	Total Number of Incremental Covered Aircraft	Total Number of Covered Aircraft
01/01/2021 – 01/04/2021	Ten (10)	Fifty (50)
01/05/2021 – 03/03/2021	Three (3)	Forty-three (43)
03/04/2021 – Incremental Covered Aircraft Termination Date	Five (5)	Forty-five (45)

Other than as specifically set forth in this Amendment No. 1, each Incremental Covered Aircraft shall be deemed a Covered Aircraft for all purposes and shall be subject to the same terms and conditions, including those related to audit rights, compensation, costs and expenses, as other Covered Aircraft under the Capacity Purchase Agreement.

As soon as reasonably practicable after the date first set forth above (but no later than December 30, 2020), Contractor shall deliver a Notice to American that states the aircraft tail number and “Batch” of each Incremental Covered Aircraft that will operate during the

calendar month of January 2021. For the calendar month of February 2021 and beyond, no later than fifteen (15) days prior to the first day of each such month, Contractor shall deliver a Notice to American that states the aircraft tail number and “Batch” of each Incremental Covered Aircraft that will operate during such calendar month, if any.

American may elect (in its sole discretion) to Withdraw any Incremental Covered Aircraft from the Capacity Purchase Agreement upon at least sixty (60) days’ prior notice to Contractor (which notice shall include a schedule that identifies (by aircraft tail number) the Withdrawal Date for each such Incremental Covered Aircraft then subject to the provisions of the Capacity Purchase Agreement (the “Incremental Covered Aircraft Withdrawal Schedule”). For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the Incremental Covered Aircraft Withdrawal Schedule may specify one or more dates for the Withdrawal of the Incremental Covered Aircraft (provided, however, that the Incremental Covered Aircraft Termination Date shall represent the date that all Incremental Covered Aircraft are removed from the Capacity Purchase Agreement); and (ii) removal of the Incremental Covered Aircraft shall in no way affect American’s right to Withdraw any Covered Aircraft, including pursuant to Section 12.02(d)(iii) of the Capacity Purchase Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the rights and remedies referred to in this Section 1(c) shall be cumulative and in addition to American’s Withdrawal Rights and its right to terminate the Capacity Purchase Agreement (as set forth in Section 12.02(d)(iii) or otherwise) or any other rights or remedies otherwise available hereunder or under any Related Agreement or at law or in equity.

The Parties acknowledge that the Tranche 2 Primary Driver Rates set forth on Schedule 5 of the Capacity Purchase Agreement shall apply to the Incremental Covered Aircraft.

Contractor acknowledges and agrees that the Incremental Covered Aircraft shall (i) be at all times in conformity with the requirements of a “Covered Aircraft” under the Capacity Purchase Agreement; (ii) be painted in a livery approved by American, (iii) include American’s in-flight materials, in-flight publications, food and beverage products, advertising and paper goods; (iv) be in the Interior Design designated by American (subject to the terms of the Capacity Purchase Agreement); (v) not bear logos, service marks or other symbols of an air carrier other than American; and (vi) be in a seat configuration approved by American.

For the avoidance of doubt, this Amendment No. 1 shall in no way affect (i) Contractor’s obligations to maintain the number of Spare Aircraft specified in Section 3.02(a) of the Capacity Purchase Agreement (provided, however, that notwithstanding clause (iv) of such Section 3.02(a), Contractor shall only be obligated to maintain [***] Spare Aircraft from [***] through and including [***]); or (ii) the [***] specified in Section [***] of Schedule 5 of the Capacity Purchase Agreement.

Contractor acknowledges and agrees that American shall not be responsible for any incremental costs or expenses related to adding the Incremental Covered Aircraft as Covered Aircraft and any such costs and expenses shall be a Controllable Cost.

Section 6.14(f) of the Capacity Purchase Agreement (Notices to American) is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced as follows:

“(f) Notices to American. All information provided to American pursuant to this
