It is agreed that Bank of America will act as the sole lead arranger for the Class A Facility (in such capacity, the “Arranger”).

2.Conditions.
The commitment of Bank of America hereunder and the undertaking of Bank of America to provide the services described herein are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of each of the following conditions precedent in a manner reasonably acceptable to Bank of America: (a) the accuracy and completeness of all representations that you and your affiliates make to Bank of America and your compliance with the terms of this Commitment Letter (including the Term Sheet); (b) the negotiation, execution and delivery of definitive documentation for the Class A Facility consistent with the Term Sheet and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to Bank of America (the “Facility Documentation”), and

You agree that if at any time prior to the Effective Date you become aware that the representation, warranty and covenant in the immediately preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material respect if the Information were being furnished, and such representation, warranty and covenant were being made, on such date that you will use commercially reasonable efforts to furnish us with further and supplemental information so that such representation and warranty shall be correct in all material respects under such circumstance (it being agreed that any such supplementation shall cure any breach of such representation and warranty). In issuing this commitment and in arranging the Class A Facility, Bank of America, is and will be using and relying on the Information without independent verification thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, you will not be required to provide any information to the extent that the provision thereof would violate any attorney-client privilege, law, rule or regulation or any obligation of confidentiality binding upon you or your affiliates.

You acknowledge that Bank of America, on your behalf, will make available Information to the proposed Lenders by posting the Information on IntraLinks, SyndTrak or another similar electronic system, in each case subject to a standard “click through” or similar confidentiality arrangements substantially consistent with those set forth in this Commitment Letter. In connection with the arrangement of the Class A Facility, unless the parties hereto otherwise agree in writing, you shall be under no obligation to provide Information suitable for distribution to any prospective Lender (each, a “Public Lender”) that has personnel who do not wish to receive material non-public information (within the meaning of the United States federal securities laws, “MNPI”) with respect to Wheels Up, the Loan Borrower, Wheels Up Experience Inc., Delta, any of the foregoing entity’s affiliates, or the respective securities of any of the foregoing.

3



syndication, assignment or other transfer until after the initial borrowing under the Class A Facility, (b) no such syndication, assignment or other transfer shall become effective with respect to any portion of the commitment of the Lender party hereto in respect of the Class A Facility until the initial borrowing under the Class A Facility, and (c) the Lender party hereto shall retain exclusive control over all rights and obligations with respect to its commitments in respect of the Class A Facility subject to the limitations described in this Section 3, including all rights with respect to consents, waivers, modifications, supplements and amendments, until the initial borrowing under the Class A Facility has occurred.

In the case of an investigation, litigation or proceeding to which the indemnity in this section applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by you, your equityholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party, whether or not an Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any aspect of the Transaction, or any other transactions contemplated hereby, are consummated. You also agree that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise and whether at law or in equity) to you or your subsidiaries or affiliates, or to your or their respective equity holders or creditors, arising out of, related to, or in connection with this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, the Facility Documentation or any aspect of the Transaction or any other transactions contemplated hereby, except to the extent of direct, as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive, damages determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or such Indemnified Party’s material breach of its obligations under this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter or the Facility Documentation. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each party hereto shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto, on any theory of liability for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, the Facility Documentation or any aspect of the Transaction or any other transactions contemplated hereby, provided that the foregoing will not relieve Wheels Up of any obligation it may have to indemnify any Indemnified Party pursuant to the second paragraph of this Section 4. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Commitment Letter, no Indemnified Party shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through electronic telecommunications or other information transmission systems, other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party or such Indemnified Party’s material breach of its obligations under this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter or the Facility Documentation, in each case, as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
You will not be liable for any settlement of any action effected without your prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), but, if settled with your written consent or if there is a final judgment in any such actions, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Party from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses by reason of such settlement or judgment in accordance with the indemnification provisions of this Commitment Letter. You will not, without the prior written consent of an Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any action in respect of which indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such actions, (ii) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party, and (iii) requires no action on the part of the Indemnified Party other than its consent.

(e)    Security
The Equipment Notes issued with respect to each Aircraft will be secured by a security interest in such Aircraft.

In the absence of any such shortfall, excess proceeds will be held by the Security Trustee as additional collateral for such other Equipment Notes.
(g)    Cross-defaultThere will be cross-default provisions in the Indenture. This means that if the Equipment Notes issued with respect to one Aircraft are in default and remedies are exercisable with respect to such Aircraft, the Equipment Notes issued with respect to the remaining Aircraft will also be in default, and remedies will be exercisable with respect to all Aircraft.

Annex A – Page 9



(h)    Liquidity Reserve
Beginning on the Effective Date Wheels Up will maintain a liquidity reserve in a pledged liquidity reserve account (the “Liquidity Reserve Account”) (or eligible letter of credit (a “Letter of Credit”)) at all times equal to 6-months of interest on the then outstanding Equipment Notes (the “Liquidity Reserve Account Required Balance”) based upon the current 3-month SOFR rate at the time of such determination.
If on any Regular Distribution Date the balance in the Liquidity Reserve Account (the “Liquidity Reserve Balance Amount”) together with the amounts available under each Letter of Credit exceeds the Liquidity Reserve Account Required Balance, such excess may, at the election of Wheels Up, be transferred to Wheels Up, and/or the amounts available under each Letter of Credit can be reduced, such that the amount in the Liquidity Reserve Account, together with amounts available under each Letter of Credit, are equal to the Liquidity Reserve Account Required Balance.

Amounts on deposit in the Liquidity Reserve Account can be used, and each Letter of Credit can be drawn, to fund any shortfalls in the payment of interest due and owing on the Equipment Notes on any Distribution Date (the amount of each such payment, a “Shortfall Amount”).1
(i)    Section 1110 ProtectionWheels Up’s outside counsel will provide its opinion to the Trustees that the benefits of Section 1110 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code will be available with respect to the Equipment Notes.

Consummation of any such Junior Financing will be subject to satisfaction of certain conditions. Following an exercise of remedies by the Controlling Party, and so long as all amounts payable pursuant to the Equipment Notes and transaction documents have been paid (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any amounts then due to any Holder), the holders of such junior liens (the “Junior Lienholders”) shall be entitled to any remaining proceeds prior to distribution to Wheels Up. The Junior Lienholders or a representative on their behalf will agree for the benefit of the Security Trustee to be subject to the subordination and terms of the Intercreditor Agreement (including limitations on the exercise of remedies on behalf of the Junior Lienholders).
