Exhibit 10.2

TERM NOTE D

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, AIR T, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), promises to pay to the order of MINNESOTA BANK & TRUST, a national banking association (the “Lender”), the principal sum of ONE MILLION SIX HUNDRED EIGHTY THOUSAND AND No/100^ths DOLLARS (U.S. $1,680,000.00) on or before January 1, 2028, or such earlier date as this promissory note (this “Note”) may be declared due and payable by Lender pursuant to the terms hereof and the terms of the Credit Agreement (the “Maturity Date”), together with interest on the principal amount thereof outstanding from time to time at the rate or rates described below, and any and all other amounts which may be due and payable hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents (as hereinafter defined) from time to time. This Note is made pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in that certain Credit Agreement dated of even date herewith by and between Borrower and Lender (as amended, modified, supplemented or restated from time to time being the “Credit Agreement”). The amount disbursed by the Lender to Borrower, repayment of which is evidenced by this Note, is referred to as the “Loan”. All capitalized terms used and not expressly defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Loan Agreement.

Interest Prior to Default.

(a)     Interest Rate.

(i)     The Borrower promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount hereof from the date hereof until such principal amount is paid in full at a per annum rate of interest (the “Interest Rate”) that equals the sum of (a) the Index (as hereinafter defined), plus (b) 2.00% (the “Margin”).

(ii)     The interest rate on this Note is subject to change from time to time based on changes in an independent index which is LIBOR (as hereafter defined) adjusted and determined, without notice to Borrower, as of the date of this Note and on the first day of each calendar month hereafter (the “Interest Rate Change Date”). “LIBOR” shall mean the London Interbank Offered Rate of interest for an interest period of 1 month which appears on Bloomberg on the day that is two London Business Days preceding each Interest Rate Change Date (the “Reset Date”). If LIBOR as defined above is not available or is not published for any Reset Date, then Lender shall, at its sole discretion, choose a substitute source for LIBOR, which LIBOR plus the Margin, shall become effective on the next Interest Rate Change Date. “London Business Day” shall mean any day on which commercial banks in London, England are open for general business (collectively, the “Index”). The Index is not necessarily the lowest rate charged by Lender on its loans. If the Index becomes unavailable during the term of the Loan, Lender may designate a substitute Index after notice to Borrower. Lender will tell Borrower the current Index rate upon Borrower’s request. The interest rate change will not occur more often than each month. Borrower understands that Lender may make loans based on other rates as well. The Index currently is [_.____%] per annum. NOTICE: Under no circumstances will the interest rate on this Note be more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law.

(b)     Prohibition on Making LIBOR Loans. If Lender shall have reasonably determined that the making or continuation of any LIBOR Loan has become prohibited or otherwise unlawful under any law, governmental rule, regulation or order of any governmental body, then Lender shall promptly give notice to Borrower of such determination. Upon delivery of such notice the Loan shall immediately commence bearing interest at, and the Loan Rate shall be converted to the Prime Rate (as defined herein) plus the Margin. The term “Prime Rate” means the “Prime Rate” as published in the “Money Rates” column of The Wall Street Journal as and when such rate changes (or, if The Wall Street Journal ceases to publish a rate so designated, any similar successor rate as the Lender shall in good faith designate). The Prime Rate is not necessarily the lowest rate charged to any customer), adjusted and changing immediately when and as said prime rate changes.

(c)     Change in Capital Adequacy Requirements. If Lender shall determine that the adoption after the date hereof (for purposes of this Agreement, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all guidelines and regulations adopted in connection therewith are deemed to have been adopted after the date hereof) of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change in any existing law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration of any such law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or compliance by Lender (or any of its branches) with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or for the credit which is the subject matter hereof to a level below that which Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Lender’s policies with respect to liquidity and capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Lender to be material, then from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after demand by Lender, Borrower shall pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts reasonably determined by Lender as will compensate Lender for such reduction.

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”; such increased rate of interest being the “Default Rate”). 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.

Payment Terms.

(a)     Principal and Interest. Payments of principal and interest due under this Note, if not sooner declared to be due in accordance with the provisions hereof, shall be made as follows (each such date when a payment is due and payable, a “Payment Date”):

(i)     On the first day of each month, commencing on March 1, 2018 and continuing until the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall make payments of principal, each in the amount of $5,600.00 plus accrued interest; and

(ii)     The Loan shall be due and payable, and Borrower hereby promises to pay the outstanding principal amount of the Loan to Lender, together with all accrued interest thereon then remaining unpaid and all other unpaid amounts, charges, fees and expenses outstanding under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents, on the Maturity Date.

(iii)     THIS NOTE REQUIRES A BALLOON PAYMENT ON THE MATURITY DATE.

(b)     Method of Payments. Both principal and interest are payable in lawful money of the United States of America to the Lender at 7701 France Avenue South, Edina, MN 55435 (or other location specified by the Lender) in immediately available funds. By its execution of this Note, the Borrower authorizes the Lender to charge from time to time against any of Borrower’s depository accounts maintained with the Lender any such payments when due and the Lender will use its reasonable efforts to notify the Borrower 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 Borrower hereunder shall become due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.

Prepayment; Minimum Interest Charge. This Note may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time, so long as such prepayment is accompanied by a simultaneous payment of any applicable termination fees payable under any Hedge Agreement, plus accrued interest on the amount being prepaid through the date of prepayment. In any event, even upon full prepayment of this Note, Borrower understands that Lender is entitled to a minimum interest charge of $10.00. Early payments will not, unless agreed to by Lender in writing, relieve Borrower of Borrower’s obligation to continue to make payments of accrued unpaid interest. Rather, early payment will reduce the principal balance due. Borrower agrees not to send Lender payments marked “paid in full”, “without recourse”, or similar language. If Borrower sends such a payment, Lender may accept it without losing any of Lender’s rights under this Note, and Borrower 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, 7701 France Avenue South, Edina, MN 55435.

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.

This provision shall control every other obligation of the Borrower and Lender relating to this Note.
