ITEM 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement

Indenture Governing Senior Secured Notes

On October 15, 2024, AS Mileage Plan IP, Ltd. (“Loyalty Issuer”), an exempted company incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Alaska Air Group, Inc. (the “Company”) issued and sold $625 million aggregate principal amount of 5.021% Senior Secured Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) and $625 million aggregate principal amount of 5.308% Senior Secured Notes due 2031 (the “2031 Notes” and together with the 2029 Notes, the “Notes”), pursuant to an Indenture (the “Indenture”), dated as of October 15, 2024, by and among Loyalty Issuer, the Guarantors (as defined below) and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee and U.S. Bank National Association, as collateral custodian.

The 2029 Notes will mature on October 20, 2029. The 2029 Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.021% per annum, payable in quarterly installments on January 20, April 20, July 20 and October 20 of each year, beginning January 20, 2025. The 2031 Notes will mature on October 20, 2031. The 2031 Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.308% per annum, payable in quarterly installments on January 20, April 20, July 20 and October 20 of each year, beginning January 20, 2025.

The Notes are (i) fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured basis, jointly and severally, by Alaska Airlines, Inc. (“Alaska”) and AS Mileage Plan Holdings Ltd. (“HoldCo”) and on an unsecured basis by the Company (together, the “Guarantors”) and (ii) secured, on a senior, first-priority basis by the Loyalty Issuer’s, Alaska’s and HoldCo’s right, title and interest in certain collateral associated with Alaska’s customer loyalty program, Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan (the “Collateral”). The assets of the HawaiianMiles program will not initially be included in the Collateral and Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries will not guarantee the Notes.

The Notes and the note guarantees of the Guarantors (i) rank equally in right of payment with all of Loyalty Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ existing and future senior indebtedness (including the New Term Loan Facility described below), (ii) are effectively senior to all existing and future indebtedness of Loyalty Issuer, Alaska and HoldCo that is not secured by a lien, or is secured by a junior-priority lien, (iii) are effectively subordinated to any existing or future indebtedness of Loyalty Issuer and the Guarantors that is secured by liens on assets that do not constitute a part of the Collateral and will be effectively subordinated to any secured debt of the Company to the same extent and (iv) rank senior in right of payment to Loyalty Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ future subordinated indebtedness.

The Notes and note guarantees are structurally subordinated to all existing and future obligations, including trade payables, of the Company’s subsidiaries, other than Loyalty Issuer, that do not guarantee the Notes.

Prior to, in respect of the 2029 Notes, September 20, 2029, and in respect of the 2031 Notes, August 20, 2031 (each, a “Par Call Date”), Loyalty Issuer may redeem the related series of Notes, in whole or in part, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to, but not including, the redemption date, plus any applicable “make-whole” premium. On and after the applicable Par Call Date, Loyalty Issuer may redeem the related series of Notes, in whole or in part, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus, accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to, but not including, the redemption date.

The Indenture restricts Loyalty Issuer and HoldCo from incurring any debt other than (a) senior debt secured by the Collateral (“Priority Lien Debt”) on a first-lien, pari passu basis, subject to certain conditions, (b) junior debt that is secured by liens on the Collateral that are subordinated to those securing the Priority Lien Debt and that is also subordinated in right of payment to the Priority Lien Debt, subject to certain terms and conditions and (c) Permitted Pre-Paid Miles Purchases. The Indenture does not limit the amount of unsecured debt that the Company or its subsidiaries (other than Loyalty Issuer and HoldCo) may incur or the amount of debt secured by assets other than the Collateral that the Company or its subsidiaries (other than Loyalty Issuer and HoldCo) may incur.

The Indenture also contains mandatory prepayment provisions, which may require Loyalty Issuer in certain instances to prepay the aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding or other Priority Lien Debt in connection with, among other things, dispositions of collateral or a change of control. The Notes are not entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund.

If the Company experiences specified kinds of changes of control, Loyalty Issuer must offer to repurchase the Notes at 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the repurchase date.

The Indenture contains negative covenants, that, among other things, limit Loyalty Issuer’s and HoldCo’s ability to (i) incur certain additional indebtedness, (ii) make certain restricted payments or (iii) engage in certain business activities and limit Loyalty Issuer’s, HoldCo’s and Alaska’s ability to (i) create certain liens on the Collateral, (ii) dispose of the Collateral or (iii)



consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of Alaska’s assets. The Indenture also includes affirmative and financial covenants of Loyalty Issuer and the Guarantors, including a Debt Service Coverage Ratio Test.

The Indenture provides for customary events of default. In the case of an event of default with respect to Loyalty Issuer and/or the Guarantors arising from specified events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice.

The description of the Indenture contained in this Item 1.01 does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Indenture, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 4.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference, including the Form of 2029 Notes and the Form of 2031 Notes, copies of which are attached as Exhibit 4.2 and Exhibit 4.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

Term Loan Facility

On October 15, 2024, Loyalty Issuer, as borrower, entered into a new credit agreement among Loyalty Issuer, the Guarantors, the lenders party thereto, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as collateral administrator, for a $750 million senior secured term loan facility (the “New Term Loan Facility”), the full amount of which was drawn. The New Term Loan Facility is secured on a pari passu basis with the Notes by substantially the same collateral as the Collateral securing the Notes.

The loans under the New Term Loan Facility (the “New Loans”) will bear interest at a variable rate equal to Term SOFR (subject to a floor of zero), or another index rate, in each case plus a specified margin. The New Term Loan Facility restricts Loyalty Issuer and HoldCo from incurring any debt other than (a) Priority Lien Debt on a first-lien, pari passu basis, subject to certain conditions, (b) junior debt that is secured by liens on the Collateral that are subordinated to those securing the Priority Lien Debt and that is also subordinated in right of payment to the Priority Lien Debt, subject to certain terms and conditions and (c) Permitted Pre-Paid Miles Purchases. The New Term Loan Facility does not limit the amount of unsecured debt that the Company or its subsidiaries (other than Loyalty Issuer and HoldCo) may incur or the amount of debt secured by assets other than the Collateral that the Company or its subsidiaries (other than Loyalty Issuer and HoldCo) may incur.

The New Term Loan Facility will be subject to quarterly amortization payments commencing on the first payment date following the first full fiscal quarter following the date hereof.

The New Term Loan Facility also contains mandatory prepayment provisions, which may require Loyalty Issuer in certain instances to prepay obligations owing under the New Term Loan Facility or other Priority Lien Debt in connection with, among other things, dispositions of collateral or a change of control. Any prepayment of the New Term Loans prior to the maturity date (other than as a result of an early amortization event, an event of default or certain other mandatory prepayment events thereunder) may require Loyalty Issuer to pay a prepayment premium.

The New Term Loan Facility contains affirmative, negative and financial covenants including a Debt Service Coverage Ratio Test substantially similar to the one applicable to the Notes.

The New Term Loan Facility contains events of default, including a cross-default to other material indebtedness including the Notes. Upon the occurrence and continuation of an event of default (other than an event of default relating to certain bankruptcy or insolvency events of Alaska, Loyalty Issuer and HoldCo), the outstanding obligations under the New Term Loan Facility may be accelerated and become due and payable immediately. Upon the occurrence of an event of default relating to certain bankruptcy or insolvency events of Alaska, Loyalty Issuer and HoldCo, the outstanding obligations under the New Term Loan Facility shall be accelerated and become due and payable immediately.

The description of the New Term Loan Facility contained in this Item 1.01 does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the New Term Loan Facility, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 4.4 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby resulting from exchange from one Global Note to another shall be made by the Trustee in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06 hereof.

(c)    Notwithstanding this Section 3.07, in connection with a Parent Change of Control Offer, if Holders of not less than 90.0% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of a Series validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in such tender offer and the Issuer, or any third party making such a tender offer in lieu of the Issuer, purchase all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuer or such third party will have the right upon not less than twenty (20) nor more than sixty (60) days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase date, to redeem all Notes of such Series that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus, to the extent not included in the tender offer payment, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to, but not including, the applicable Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders on record on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment) and without any Redemption Premium.
(a)    Within five (5) Business Days of Loyalty Co or any other SPV Party receiving any Net Proceeds from the issuance or incurrence of any Indebtedness of Loyalty Co or any other SPV Party (other than with respect to any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.23), the Issuer shall cause each Series of Notes’ Pro Rata Share of such Net Proceeds (the “Issuance Mandatory Prepayment Amount”), plus accrued and unpaid interest on the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be prepaid to, but excluding, the Prepayment Date (as defined below) (the “Issuance Remitted Amount”), to be remitted to the Trustee to be paid by the Trustee to Holders as of the Prepayment Record Date (as defined below) (such remittance date, as the case may be, a “Issuance Prepayment Date”).
-viii-



(b)    Within ten (10) Business Days of Alaska or any of its Subsidiaries receiving any Net Proceeds of a Pre-paid Miles Purchase which Net Proceeds, together with the aggregate amount of Net Proceeds previously received from Pre-paid Miles Purchases since the Closing Date, are in excess of $500,000,000 (such excess, “Excess PPM Net Proceeds”, and such event, a “PPM Mandatory Prepayment Event”), the Issuer shall cause each Series of Notes’ Pro Rata Share of such Excess PPM Net Proceeds (the “PPM Mandatory Prepayment Amount”), plus accrued and unpaid interest on the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be prepaid to, but excluding, the Prepayment Date (as defined below) (the “PPM Remitted Amount”), to be remitted to the Trustee to be paid by the Trustee to Holders as of the Prepayment Record Date (as defined below) (such remittance date, as the case may be, a “PPM Prepayment Date”); provided that the Issuer shall not be required to make such prepayment so long as the aggregate amount of Net Proceeds received from Pre-paid Miles Purchases since the Closing Date is less than $550,000,000.
-ix-



(a)    No later than ten (10) Business Days following the date of receipt by Alaska or any of its Subsidiaries of any Net Proceeds in respect of any Recovery Event (in each case, in respect of Collateral) which Net Proceeds, together with the aggregate amount of Net Proceeds previously received from Recovery Events since the Closing Date, are in excess of $10,000,000 (the “RE Threshold Amount”, and all such Net Proceeds in excess of the RE Threshold Amount, “RE Excess Proceeds”), the Issuer shall (i) give written notice to the Trustee of such Recovery Event and (ii) make an offer (an “RE Mandatory Repurchase Offer”) to all Holders to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes on a pro rata basis that may be purchased out of the Notes’ Pro Rata Share of such RE Excess Proceeds (other than any such RE Excess Proceeds withheld for reinvestment pursuant to the proviso in this clause (a)) (the “RE Mandatory Repurchase Offer Proceeds”); provided that (1) so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of receipt of such RE Excess Proceeds, the Issuer shall have the option to (x) invest such RE Excess Proceeds within 365 days of receipt thereof in Qualified Replacement Assets (or, if a binding commitment for any such investment has been entered into within such 365-day period, within 180 days after the end of such 365-day period) or (y) repair, replace or restore the assets which are the subject of such Recovery Event; and (2) within ten (10) Business Days of the end of such permitted reinvestment period (or earlier if the Issuer so elects), the Issuer shall make an RE Mandatory Repurchase Offer with respect to aggregate amount of such RE Excess Proceeds not used in accordance with the preceding subclause (1).
-x-



(b)    No later than ten (10) Business Days following the date of receipt by Alaska or any of its Subsidiaries of any Net Proceeds in respect of (x) any Collateral Sale of Mileage Plan Intellectual Property (other than with respect to any Permitted Pre-paid Miles Purchase or Permitted Disposition) or (y) any Collateral Sale which Net Proceeds (other than with respect to any Permitted Pre-paid Miles Purchase, Permitted Disposition or Permitted HoldCo Equity Minority Stake Sale), together with the aggregate amount of Net Proceeds previously received from any such Collateral Sales (other than with respect to any Permitted Pre-paid Miles Purchase, Permitted Disposition or Permitted HoldCo Equity Minority Stake Sale) during the fiscal year in which such date occurs, are in excess of $10,000,000 (the “CS Threshold Amount”, and all such Net Proceeds in excess of the CS Threshold Amount together with all Net Proceeds of any Collateral Sale of Mileage Plan Intellectual Property, “CS Excess Proceeds”), the Issuer shall make an offer (a “CS Mandatory Repurchase Offer”) to all Holders to purchase the maximum principal amount of each Series of Notes on a pro rata basis that may be purchased out of the Notes’ Pro Rata Share of such CS Excess Proceeds (the “CS Mandatory Repurchase Offer Proceeds”).
-xi-



(e)    Each Mandatory Repurchase Offer shall remain open for a period of twenty (20) Business Days following its commencement and no longer, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Mandatory Repurchase Offer Period”). Promptly after the expiration of the Mandatory Repurchase Offer Period (the “Mandatory Repurchase Date”), the Issuer shall apply all of the Applicable Mandatory Repurchase Offer Proceeds to repurchase all of the Notes tendered in the Mandatory Repurchase Offer at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount being repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding the Mandatory Repurchase Date (the “Mandatory Repurchase Offer Price”) and without any premium or penalty; provided that if the aggregate Mandatory Repurchase Offer Price for all Notes tendered in such Mandatory Repurchase Offer exceeds the total amount of Applicable Mandatory Repurchase Offer Proceeds, then such tendered Notes shall be repurchased pro rata up to the maximum amount of each Series of Notes that can be repurchased with such Applicable Mandatory Repurchase Offer Proceeds.
-xii-



(h)    To the extent that the aggregate principal amount of Notes of a Series validly tendered or otherwise surrendered in connection with a Mandatory Repurchase Offer is less than the Applicable Mandatory Repurchase Offer Proceeds, the Issuer may, after purchasing all such Notes of such Series validly tendered and not withdrawn, use the remaining Applicable Mandatory Repurchase Offer Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of the Notes of a Series validly tendered pursuant to any Mandatory Repurchase Offer exceeds the amount that can be repurchased with the Applicable Mandatory Repurchase Offer Proceeds with respect to such Series, the Trustee will allocate the Applicable Mandatory Repurchase Offer Proceeds to purchase Notes of such Series on a pro rata basis on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of tendered Notes of such Series; provided that no Notes will be selected and purchased in an unauthorized denomination. Upon completion of any repurchase of Notes in a Mandatory Repurchase Offer, the amount of Applicable Mandatory Repurchase Offer Proceeds shall be reset at zero.
(j)    The Issuer, the Notes Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall promptly mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the repurchase price of the Notes properly tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Issuer for repurchase, and the Issuer shall promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate and mail or deliver (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) such new Note to such Holder (it being understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, no Opinion of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate is required for the Trustee to authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note) in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered representing the same indebtedness to the extent not repurchased; provided that each such new Note shall be in a minimum denomination of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1.00 in excess thereof. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof.

(g)    On each Determination Date, a Payment Date Statement to the Trustee and the Master Collateral Agent. The Trustee may, prior to the related Payment Date, provide notice to the Issuer and the Master Collateral Agent of any information contained in the Payment Date Statement that the Trustee believes to be incorrect. If the Trustee provides such a notice, the Issuer shall use its reasonable efforts to resolve the discrepancy and provide an updated Payment Date Statement on or prior to the related Payment Date. If the discrepancy is not resolved and a replacement Payment Date Statement is not received by the Trustee prior to the payment of Available Funds on the related Payment Date pursuant to Section 4.01 and it is later determined that the information identified by the Trustee as incorrect was in fact incorrect and such error resulted in a party receiving a smaller distribution on the Payment Date than they would have received had there not been such an error, then the Issuer shall indemnify such party for such shortfall;
(j)    Subject to any confidentiality restrictions under binding agreements or limitations imposed by applicable law, a notice posted on a password protected website to which the Trustee will have access (or otherwise delivered to the Trustee, including, without limitation, by electronic mail) of (i) any material amendment, restatement, supplement, waiver or other material modification to any Material Mileage Plan Agreement (with such notice posted or delivered, as applicable, promptly but in each case within thirty (30) days of the effectiveness of such material amendment, restatement, supplement, waiver or other material modification) and (ii) any notice of termination, cancellation or expiration received or delivered by the Issuer or a Guarantor with respect to a Material Mileage Plan Agreement (with such notice posted or delivered, as applicable, as soon as reasonably practicable after such termination, cancellation or expiration).

(b)    Alaska and Loyalty Co shall, in each case at their own expense, (A) become, and cause HoldCo to become, a Grantor and to become a party to each applicable Collateral Document and all other agreements, instruments or documents that create or purport to create and perfect a first priority Lien (subject to Permitted Liens) in favor of the Master Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties in substantially all of its assets (other than Excluded Property), subject to and in accordance with the terms, conditions and provisions of the Notes Documents (it being understood that only Loyalty Co and HoldCo shall be required to become Grantors and pledge their respective Collateral), (B) promptly execute and deliver (or cause HoldCo to execute and deliver) to the Trustee and the Collateral Administrator such documents and take such actions to create, grant, establish, preserve and perfect the applicable priority Liens (subject to Permitted Liens) (including to obtain any release or termination of Liens not permitted under Section 4.25 and the filing of UCC financing statements, as applicable) in favor of the Master Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties on such assets of any Grantor to secure the Obligations to the extent required under the applicable Collateral Documents or reasonably requested by the Trustee or the Master Collateral Agent, and to ensure that such Collateral shall be subject to no other Liens other than Permitted Liens and (C) if reasonably requested by the Trustee, deliver to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties, the Trustee, the Master Collateral Agent, the Collateral Administrator and the Depositary, a customary written Opinion of Counsel to such Grantor, as applicable, with respect to the matters described in clauses (A) and (B) hereof, in each case within twenty (20) Business Days after the addition of such Collateral.
-xviii-



(c)    Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, a supplemental indenture effecting a Note Guarantee pursuant to the terms of this Indenture following the Closing Date may be modified in respect of any Guarantor organized outside the United States of America to the extent necessary to (1) comply with applicable law, (2) avoid any applicable legal limitations such as applicable statutory limitations, financial assistance requirements, corporate benefit requirements, “thin capitalization” rules, retention of title claims or similar matters or (3) avoid a conflict with the fiduciary duties of such company’s directors, contravention of any legal prohibition or regulatory condition, or the material risk of personal or criminal liability for any officers or directors (collectively referred to as “Agreed Guarantee Principles”), in each case as determined by Alaska in good faith in its reasonable discretion.
(a)    In each case, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations in the Notes Documents, each Issuer Party shall execute any and all further documents and instruments, and take all further actions, that may be required or advisable under applicable law or that the Master Collateral Agent or the Trustee may reasonably request, in order to create, grant, establish, preserve, protect and perfect the validity, perfection and priority of the Liens and security interests created or intended to be created by the Collateral Documents, in each case to the extent required under this Indenture or the Collateral Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, the requirements of this Section 4.14(a) shall not create any obligation of the Issuer Party to provide any Mileage Plan Agreements (or copies thereof) or disclose any information therein that is not otherwise disclosed or required to be disclosed on the Closing Date.
(c)    Promptly after the date upon which it is permissible to transfer and assign any Specified Intellectual Property, the Issuer Parties shall, if such Specified Intellectual Property is not transferred and assigned pursuant to an existing Contribution Agreement or an amendment thereto, execute and deliver one or more Contribution Agreements together with all further documents and instruments that may be required and advisable, and take all further actions that may be required or advisable under applicable law or that the Master Collateral Agent may reasonably request, to transfer and assign all of the Issuer Parties’ right, title and interest in and to such Specified Intellectual Property to Loyalty Co, and shall promptly provide the Trustee and the Master Collateral Agent copies of any such documents.

(e)    Alaska shall not and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to establish, create, or operate any Loyalty Program, other than a Permitted Acquisition Loyalty Program or a Specified Minority Owned Program, unless substantially all such Loyalty Program cash payments (which excludes, for the avoidance of doubt, airline revenues such as ticket sales and baggage fees), accounts in which such cash payments are deposited, Intellectual Property and member data (but solely to the extent that such Intellectual Property and member data would be included in the definition of Mileage Plan Intellectual Property, substituting references to the Mileage Plan Program with references to such other Loyalty Program), and material third-party contracts and intercompany agreements, related to such Loyalty Program (including co-branding, partnering or similar agreements (but solely to the extent that such agreements would be included in the definition of Mileage Plan Agreements (e.g., Retained Agreements are excluded from all of the foregoing so long as such agreements remain Retained Agreements or later again become Retained Agreements), substituting references to the Mileage Plan Program with references to such other Loyalty Program) related to such Loyalty Program) are transferred to and held at Loyalty Co or a Permitted Loyalty Subsidiary and pledged as Collateral on a first lien basis (except to the extent such revenues and assets constitute Excluded Property), subject to third-party rights and Permitted Liens; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing shall prohibit Parent or any of its Subsidiaries from offering and providing discounts or other incentives (other than any Currency) for travel or carriage on Alaska or any of its affiliates, or on any of its alliance or code-share partners.
(f)    Alaska and the SPV Parties agree that, with respect to each Mileage Plan Agreement (and that would not be a Retained Agreement at such time) entered into after the Closing Date (other than Excluded Property), (i) Alaska and HoldCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Loyalty Co to be party to such Mileage Plan Agreement and (ii) such Mileage Plan Agreement shall (x) provide that payment made by the counterparty thereunder shall be made to Loyalty Co and deposited directly into the Collection Account and (y) permit Alaska or Loyalty Co, as the case may be, to grant a Lien on such Mileage Plan Agreement to secure the Obligations; provided, that in no event shall it be commercially reasonable for Alaska to be required to pay or provide concessions to a counterparty of any Mileage Plan Agreement in order to have Loyalty Co added as a party to such agreement.
-xxi-



(h)    For the avoidance of doubt, (i) until a Permitted Acquisition Loyalty Program is merged into or consolidated with the Mileage Plan Program or substantially all of the payments in cash and Intellectual Property of such Permitted Acquisition Loyalty Program, all material third-party co-branding, partnering and similar agreements related to or entered into in connection with such Permitted Acquisition Loyalty Program (but solely to the extent that such agreements would be included in the definition of Mileage Plan Agreements (e.g., Retained Agreements are excluded from all of the foregoing so long as such agreements remain Retained Agreements or again become Retained Agreements), substituting references to the Mileage Plan Program with references to such other Permitted Acquisition Loyalty Program) and intercompany agreements concerning the operation of such Permitted Acquisition Loyalty Program are transferred and held at the Issuer or a Permitted Loyalty Subsidiary and pledged as Collateral, any Permitted Acquisition Loyalty Program shall not be deemed part of the Mileage Plan Program, its co-branding, partnering or similar agreements shall not constitute Mileage Plan Agreements, and its customer data shall not constitute Mileage Plan Customer Data, (ii) following a merger or consolidation of the Permitted Acquisition Loyalty Program into the Mileage Plan Program or substantially all of the payments in cash and Intellectual Property of such Permitted Acquisition Loyalty Program, all material third-party co-branding, partnering and similar agreements related to or entered into in connection with such Permitted Acquisition Loyalty Program (but solely to the extent that such agreements would be included in the definition of Mileage Plan Agreements (e.g., Retained Agreements are excluded from all of the foregoing so long as such agreements remain Retained Agreements or again become Retained Agreements), substituting references to the Mileage Plan Program with references to such other Permitted Acquisition Loyalty Program) and intercompany agreements concerning the operation of such Permitted Acquisition Loyalty Program are transferred and held at the Issuer or a Permitted Loyalty Subsidiary and pledged as Collateral, (A) none of the restrictions described in the definition of “Permitted Acquisition Loyalty Program” will continue to apply to the merged program, (B) the co-branding, partnering or similar agreements related to or entered into in connection with the Permitted Acquisition Loyalty Program shall become Mileage Plan Agreements (but solely to the extent that such agreements would be included in the definition of Mileage Plan Agreements (e.g., Retained Agreements are excluded from all of the foregoing so long as such agreements remain Retained Agreements or again become Retained Agreements), substituting references to the Mileage Plan Program with references to such other Permitted Acquisition Loyalty Program) and (C) all rights, title and interest therein and the Permitted Acquisition Loyalty Program’s payments in cash (which excludes airline revenues such as ticket sales and baggage fees) must be promptly pledged as Collateral (except to the extent constituting Excluded Property), and (iii) customers of the Mileage Plan program and customers of the HawaiianMiles program will be permitted to exchange Miles under the Mileage Plan program with the applicable Currency under the HawaiianMiles program (and vice versa), in each case so long as the HawaiianMiles program is a Permitted Acquisition Loyalty Program.
-xxii-



(i)    Alaska and the SPV Parties agree that if, as of any Determination Date, the aggregate amount of payments in cash attributable to the Retained Agreements for the preceding four Quarterly Reporting Periods (or, in the case of the first three Quarterly Reporting Periods, since the Closing Date) are greater than or equal to 15.0% of the Mileage Plan Revenues (including any such payments in cash attributable to the Retained Agreements and the Intercompany Agreements) for such period, (i) Alaska shall promptly transfer (or cause to be transferred) its rights, title and interest in, to and under one or more Retained Agreements to Loyalty Co such that the aggregate amount of payments in cash produced by the Retained Agreements not so transferred is less than 15.0% of the Mileage Plan Revenues in such period (on a pro forma basis) and (ii) upon the effectiveness of such transfer, such Retained Agreement(s) shall be pledged by Loyalty Co as Collateral on a first lien basis pursuant to an associated security agreement (or a supplement to the Security Agreement) and thereafter shall become Mileage Plan Agreement(s); provided that, in the case of any airline-to-airline frequent flyer program agreement that was previously a Retained Agreement and subsequently becomes a Mileage Plan Agreement, such airline-to-airline frequent flyer program may be re-designated as a Retained Agreement and then (x) transferred back to Alaska or any of its Affiliates and/or (y) released from the Collateral, in each case so long as after giving effect to such transfer, re-designation and/or release, the aggregate amount of payments in cash attributable to the Retained Agreements is less than 15.0% (on a pro forma basis) for the preceding four Quarterly Reporting Periods (or, in the case of the first three Quarterly Reporting Periods, since the Closing Date).
-xxiii-



(j)    As of any Determination Date, if the aggregate amount of payments in cash attributable to the Retained Agreements are greater than or equal to 15.0% of the Mileage Plan Revenue for the preceding four Quarterly Reporting Periods (determined as of the Determination Date in respect thereof), Alaska shall (x) designate one or more Retained Agreements as Mileage Plan Agreements (but, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not be required to transfer any rights related thereto to the Issuer or obtain the consent of any counterparties to such designated Retained Agreement(s)) and (y) contemporaneously with such designation Alaska shall pledge the Assigned Mileage Plan Agreement Rights with respect to such designated Retained Agreements pursuant to the Alaska Security Agreement, such that the aggregate amount of payments in cash attributable to the Retained Agreements not so designated or otherwise transferred is less than 15.0% of the Mileage Plan Revenue in such period (on a pro forma basis). All Assigned Mileage Plan Agreement Rights shall be assigned only to the extent they are permitted to be assigned pursuant to the terms of the relevant Mileage Plan Agreement (or any other agreement between Alaska and the counterparty thereto) or, if such assignment is not permitted pursuant to the terms of the relevant Mileage Plan Agreement (or such other agreement), then to the extent such rights, title and interest in, to and under such Mileage Plan Agreement may be assigned notwithstanding the terms of such agreement pursuant to the applicable provisions of the UCC (including, without limitation, Sections 9-406 and 9-408) of any relevant jurisdiction.
(k)    Loyalty Co shall have the exclusive right to issue Miles (other than those attributable to any arrangement or transaction with any non-airline third-parties) in connection with the Mileage Plan Program, including any Miles purchased by Alaska, Mileage Plan Program members or any other third parties pursuant to Mileage Plan Agreements, Retained Agreements, Alaska Airlines Business Agreements or otherwise from Loyalty Co, Alaska or any of its Affiliates, and neither Alaska nor any of its Affiliates (other than Loyalty Co) shall engage in such activities. Alaska shall purchase Miles from Loyalty Co in order to comply with its obligations under the Mileage Plan Agreements, the Retained Agreements and the Alaska Airlines Business Agreements. Loyalty Co shall issue Miles purchased by Alaska in accordance with the Intercompany Agreements. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 4.16(k) shall limit the ability of Alaska in its capacity as manager of the Mileage Plan Program (or Parent and any of its Subsidiaries or any third party, in each case designated by Alaska in such capacity) to enter into any agreements with respect to Excluded Miles (as defined in the Intercompany Agreement) on behalf of the Issuer.

(a)    Loyalty Co shall establish and maintain or cause to be maintained at the Collateral Custodian, a segregated non-interest bearing trust account in the name of Loyalty Co with the account name: “Note Reserve Account” and account number: 270993001, for the purpose of holding a minimum balance of not less than the Notes Reserve Account Required Balance (such account, the “Notes Reserve Account”). The Notes Reserve Account shall be subject at all times to the control of the Trustee. So long as the Collateral Custodian has not been notified by the Trustee or the Issuer that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then the Collateral Custodian shall, at the written direction of the Issuer from time to time cause the funds held in the Notes Reserve Account, from time to time, to be invested in one or more Cash Equivalents selected by the Issuer (which Cash Equivalents shall at all times be subject to the Lien created under this Indenture). Following the Collateral Custodian’s receipt of written notice from the Trustee or from the Issuer that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Custodian shall, unless directed by the Trustee (acting at the direction of the Permitted Noteholders) cease making or renewing such Investments and funds on deposit in the Notes Reserve Account shall thereafter remain uninvested for so long as such Event of Default is continuing. The Collateral Custodian shall not have any obligation to invest or reinvest the funds held in the Notes Reserve Account on any day to the extent that the Collateral Custodian has not received investment instruction on or prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on such day. Notwithstanding anything else in this Indenture to the contrary, in no event shall the Issuer direct any investment in any such Cash Equivalent that will mature later than the Business Day before the next occurring Payment Date. It is agreed and understood that the entity serving as the Trustee or the Collateral Custodian may earn fees associated with the investments outlined above in accordance with the terms of such investments. In no event shall the Trustee or the Collateral Custodian be deemed an investment manager or adviser in respect of any selection of investments hereunder. It is understood and agreed that the Trustee, the Collateral Custodian or their respective affiliates are permitted to receive additional compensation that could be deemed to be in the Trustee’s or the Collateral Custodian’s economic self-interest for (1) serving as investment adviser, administrator, shareholder servicing agent, custodian or sub custodian with respect to certain of the investments, (2) using affiliates to effect transactions in certain investments and (3) effecting transactions in investments. All income from such Cash Equivalents shall be retained in the Notes Reserve Account, subject to release as permitted by this Indenture. All investments in such Cash Equivalents shall be at the risk of Loyalty Co.

(b)    As security for the prompt payment or performance in full when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all Obligations, Loyalty Co hereby grants to the Trustee for the benefit of the Notes Secured Parties a security interest in and lien upon, all of the Loyalty Co’s right, title and interest in and to the Notes Reserve Account, (i) all funds held in the Notes Reserve Account, and all certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time representing or evidencing the Notes Reserve Account or such funds, (ii) all Investments from time to time of amounts in the Notes Reserve Account and all certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time representing or evidencing such Investments, (iii) all notes, certificates of deposit and other instruments from time to time delivered to or otherwise possessed by the Trustee or any Notes Secured Party or any assignee or agent on behalf of the Trustee or any Notes Secured Party in substitution for or in addition to any of the then-existing Collateral in the Notes Reserve Account, and (iv) all interest, dividends, cash, instruments and other property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any and all of the then-existing Collateral in the Notes Reserve Account.
-xxvii-



(e)    If, on any Determination Date, Available Funds for the related Payment Date will not be sufficient to pay in full the amounts due pursuant to clauses (a), (b) and (c) of Section 4.01 on the related Payment Date, Loyalty Co shall request by notice in writing (which may be the Payment Date Statement) to the Trustee that the Trustee, on or prior to the related Payment Date, direct the Collateral Custodian to transfer amounts in the Notes Reserve Account to the Notes Payment Account to the extent necessary so that Available Funds on the related Payment Date will be sufficient to pay such amounts on the related Payment Date. In such circumstances, the Trustee shall promptly direct the Collateral Custodian to wire such amounts from the Notes Reserve Account to the Notes Payment Account.
-xxviii-



(b)    As security for the prompt payment or performance in full when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all Obligations, Loyalty Co hereby grants to the Trustee for the benefit of the Notes Secured Parties a security interest in and lien upon, all of Loyalty Co’s right, title and interest in and to (i) the Notes Payment Account, (ii) all funds held in the Notes Payment Account, and all certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time representing or evidencing any Notes Payment Account or such funds, (iii) all Investments from time to time of amounts in the Notes Payment Account and all certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time representing or evidencing such Investments, (iv) all notes, certificates of deposit and other instruments from time to time delivered to or otherwise possessed by the Trustee or any Notes Secured Party or any assignee or agent on behalf of the Trustee or any Notes Secured Party in substitution for or in addition to any of the then-existing Collateral in the Notes Payment Account, and (v) all interest, dividends, cash, instruments and other property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any and all of the then-existing Collateral in the Notes Payment Account.

As of any Determination Date, to the extent that Collections received in the Collection Account for the related DSCR Measurement Period are insufficient to satisfy the Debt Service Coverage Ratio Test for such DSCR Measurement Period (the “Shortfall Period”), at any time prior to such Determination Date the Issuer may deposit, or cause to be deposited into the Collection Account, funds in an amount necessary to satisfy the Debt Service Coverage Ratio Test for such Shortfall Period (determined as if such deposited funds constitute Collections attributable to such Shortfall Period); provided that (x) deposits made pursuant to this Section 4.33 shall not occur more than five (5) times in the aggregate prior to the final maturity date of the 2031 Notes and no more than two times in any twelve (12) month period, (y) any such Cure Amounts received in the Collection Account on or prior to the Determination Date with respect to the Shortfall Period in accordance with this Section 4.33 will be treated as Collections for purposes of the Debt Service Coverage Ratio Test for the Shortfall Period and (z) amounts deposited in the Collection Account after such Determination Date and designated as Cure Amounts by the Issuer shall be treated as Collections for the Quarterly Reporting Period in which such funds were deposited and shall not be included in the Debt Service Coverage Ratio Test for the Shortfall Period (amounts deposited pursuant to this paragraph being “Cure Amounts”).
(a)    If a Parent Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, each Holder of Notes shall have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or any part of that Holder’s Notes pursuant to an offer to purchase (a “Parent Change of Control Offer”) at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes repurchased to the date of repurchase (the “Parent Change of Control Payment”) and without any Redemption Premium, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Payment Date. Within thirty (30) days following any Parent Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer shall mail or send electronically pursuant to the Notes Depositary’s Applicable Procedures a notice to each Holder and the Trustee describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Parent Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase Notes on the date specified in the notice (the “Parent Change of Control Payment Date”), which date will be no earlier than thirty (30) days and no later than sixty (60) days from the date such notice is mailed or sent electronically pursuant to the Notes Depositary’s Applicable Procedures, pursuant to the procedures required by this Indenture and described in such notice and stating:
-xxxv-



(d)    The Issuer will not be required to make a Parent Change of Control Offer upon a Parent Change of Control Triggering Event if (1) a third party makes the Parent Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Parent Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Parent Change of Control Offer, or (2) notice of redemption with respect to all Notes has been given pursuant to Section 3.07 unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price; and a Parent Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Parent Change of Control, conditioned upon the consummation of such Parent Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the relevant Parent Change of Control at the time the Parent Change of Control Offer is made. If a Parent Change of Control Triggering Event occurs at a time when the Issuer is prohibited, by the terms of any of their indebtedness, from purchasing the Notes, the Issuer may seek the consent of their lenders to the purchase of the Notes or may attempt to refinance the borrowings that contain such prohibition. If the Issuer does not obtain such a consent or repay such borrowings, they would remain prohibited from purchasing the Notes. For the avoidance of doubt, the Issuer’s failure to offer to purchase the Notes shall constitute an Event of Default under Section 6.02(a)(iii) and not Section 6.02(a)(i), but the failure of the Issuer to pay the Parent Change of Control Payment when due shall constitute an Event of Default under Section 6.02(a)(i).
-xxxvi-



(e)    If Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of a Series validly tender and do not withdraw the Notes in a Parent Change of Control Offer and the Issuer, or any third party making a Parent Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Issuer, purchase all of such Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuer shall have the right, upon not less than twenty (20) nor more than sixty (60) days’ prior notice, given not more than thirty (30) days following such purchase pursuant to the Parent Change of Control Offer described above, to redeem all Notes of such Series that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to but not including the date of redemption (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant Payment Date).

For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the redemption date.
(2)    If on the third business day preceding the redemption date H.15 TCM (or any successor designation or publication) is no longer published, Alaska shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second business day preceding such redemption date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the applicable Par Call Date, as applicable.

If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the applicable Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, Alaska shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time.
