PART I
ITEM 1.    BUSINESS.
Overview
Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. (the Company, Holdings, we, us, and our) is a holding company incorporated in the State of Delaware. The Company's primary asset is sole ownership of all issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. (Hawaiian). Hawaiian was originally incorporated in January 1929 under the laws of the Territory of Hawai'i and became our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary pursuant to a corporate restructuring that was consummated in August 2002. Hawaiian became a Delaware corporation and the Company's direct wholly-owned subsidiary concurrent with its reorganization and reacquisition by the Company in June 2005.
Our Business
We are engaged in the scheduled air transportation of passengers and cargo amongst the Hawaiian Islands (the Neighbor Island routes) and between the Hawaiian Islands and certain cities in the United States (the North America routes together with the Neighbor Island routes, the Domestic routes), and between the Hawaiian Islands and the South Pacific, Australia, New Zealand and Asia (the International routes), collectively referred to as our Scheduled Operations. We offer non-stop service to Hawai'i from more U.S. gateway cities ( 13 ) than any other airline, and also provide approximately 180 daily flights between the Hawaiian Islands. In addition, we operate various charter flights.
We are the longest serving airline, as well as the largest airline headquartered, in the State of Hawai'i, and the 10th largest domestic airline in the United States based on revenue passenger miles (RPMs) reported by the Research and Innovative Technology Administration Bureau of Transportation Services as of September 2018 , the latest data available.
At December 31, 2018 , our fleet consisted of 20 Boeing 717-200 aircraft for the Neighbor Island routes, four Boeing 767-300 aircraft, 24 Airbus A330-200 aircraft, and eleven Airbus A321-200 for the North America, International, and charter routes. We also own four ATR42 aircraft for the "Ohana by Hawaiian" Neighbor Island service and three ATR71 aircraft for our Neighbor Island cargo operations. During the first quarter of 2019, we expect to retire all four of our remaining Boeing 767-300 aircraft, completing the transition to our A321 aircraft, allowing for optimization of our products and increased management of capacity.
Our goal is to be the number one destination carrier serving Hawai'i. We are devoted to the travel needs of the residents of and visitors to Hawai'i and we offer a unique travel experience. We are strongly rooted in the culture and people of Hawai'i and we seek to provide quality service to our customers that exemplifies the spirit of Aloha.
Outlook
Our mission is to continue to grow a profitable airline with a passion for excellence, our customers, our people and the spirit of Hawai'i. In 2019 , we will continue to focus on strengthening our competitive position in the markets that we serve primarily by continuing to mature the routes we launched over the past decade, improving our long term competitive cost structure, improving the guest experience by making travel effortless and furthering our segmentation efforts through our offering of additional value-added products and services, including the introduction of our Main Cabin Basic product in 2019.
Flight Operations
Our flight operations are based in Honolulu, Hawai'i. At December 31, 2018 , we operated 246 scheduled flights with:
Daily service on our North America routes between the State of Hawai'i and Long Beach, Los Angeles, Oakland, Sacramento, San Diego, San Francisco, and San Jose, California; Las Vegas, Nevada; Phoenix, Arizona; Portland, Oregon; Seattle, Washington; and New York City, New York.
Daily service on our Neighbor Island routes among the six major islands of the State of Hawai'i.
Daily service on our International routes between the State of Hawai'i and Sydney, Australia; and Tokyo (Haneda and Narita); and Osaka, Japan; and scheduled service between the State of Hawai'i and Pago Pago, American Samoa; Papeete, Tahiti; Brisbane, Australia; Auckland, New Zealand; Sapporo, Japan; and Seoul, South Korea.
Various ad hoc charters.

As illustrated by the table above, fuel costs constitute a significant portion of our operating expenses. We purchase aircraft fuel at prevailing market prices, and seek to manage economic risks associated with fluctuations in aircraft fuel prices by entering into various derivative financial instruments.
Aircraft Maintenance
Our aircraft maintenance programs consist of a series of phased or continuous checks for each aircraft type. These checks are performed at specified intervals measured by calendar months, time flown, and by the number of takeoffs and landings, or cycles operated. In addition, we perform inspections, repairs, and modifications of our aircraft in response to Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) directives. We perform checks ranging from "walk around" inspections before each flight's departure to major overhauls of the airframes which can take several weeks to complete. Aircraft engines are subject to phased maintenance programs designed to detect and remedy potential problems before they occur. The service lives of certain airframe and engine parts and components, which are time or cycle controlled, are replaced or refurbished prior to the expiration of their time or cycle limits. We have contracts with third parties to provide certain maintenance on our aircraft and aircraft engines.
Marketing and Ticket Distribution
We utilize various distribution channels including our website www.hawaiianairlines.com , primarily for our North America and Neighbor Island routes, and travel agencies and wholesale distributors for our International routes.
Our website is available in English, Japanese, Korean, and Chinese and offers our customers information on our flight schedules, information on our HawaiianMiles frequent flyer program, the ability to book reservations on our flights or connecting flights with any of our code-share partners, the status of our flights as well as the ability to purchase hotels, cars and vacation packages. We also distribute our fares through online travel agencies.
Frequent Flyer Program
The HawaiianMiles frequent flyer program was initiated in 1983 to encourage and develop customer loyalty. HawaiianMiles allows passengers to earn mileage credits by flying with us and our partner carriers. In addition, members earn mileage credits for patronage with our other program partners, including credit card issuers, hotels, car rental firms, and general merchants pursuant to our exchange partnership agreements. We also sell mileage credits to other companies participating in the program.
HawaiianMiles members have a choice of various awards based on accumulated mileage credits, with most of the awards being redeemed for free air travel on Hawaiian.
HawaiianMiles accounts with no activity (frequent flyer miles earned or redeemed) for 18 months automatically expire. The number of free travel awards used for travel on Hawaiian was approximately 685,000 in 2018 . The number of free travel awards as a percentage of total revenue passengers was approximately 6% in 2018 . We believe displacement of revenue passengers is minimal due to our ability to manage frequent flyer seat inventory, and the relatively low ratio of free award usage to total revenue passengers.
Code-Share and Other Alliances
Together with Japan Airlines, we filed an application with the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) and Japan's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) seeking antitrust immunity to create a joint venture that promises significant consumer benefits and the opportunity for service expansion. We further enhanced our comprehensive partnership with Japan Airlines with the announcement of reciprocal frequent flyer benefits for HawaiianMiles and JAL Mileage Bank members in October 2018. The initial partnership launched in March 2018 with codeshare flights between Japan and Hawaii. We have not yet received approval and we do not anticipate operations commencing under the joint venture until late 2019.

Table of Contents

We also have marketing alliances with other airlines that provide reciprocal frequent flyer mileage accrual and redemption privileges and code-shares on certain flights (one carrier placing its name and flight numbers, or code, on flights operated by the other carrier). These programs enhance our revenue opportunities by:
increasing value to our customers by providing easier access to more travel destinations and better mileage accrual/redemption opportunities;
gaining access to more connecting traffic from other airlines; and
providing members of our alliance partners' frequent flyer programs an opportunity to travel on our system while earning mileage credit in the alliance partners' programs.

Although these programs and services increase our ability to be more competitive, they also increase our reliance on third parties.
Competition
The airline industry is highly competitive. We believe that the principal competitive factors in the airline industry are:
Fares;
Flight frequency and schedule;
Customer service;
On-time performance and reliability;
Name recognition;
Marketing affiliations;
Frequent flyer benefits;
Aircraft type;
Safety record; and
In-flight services.
Domestic —We face multiple competitors on our North America routes including major network carriers such as Alaska (AS), American Airlines (AA), United Airlines (UA), and Delta Airlines (DL). In addition, Southwest Airlines (WN) announced their intent to launch service to and from (and possibly within the islands of) Hawai'i in 2018. Various charter companies also provide non-scheduled service to Hawai'i, mostly under public charter arrangements. Our Neighbor Island competitors consist of regional carriers, which include Mokulele Airlines and a number of other "air taxi" companies.
International —Currently, we are the only provider of direct service between Honolulu and each of Sapporo, Japan; Pago Pago, American Samoa; and Papeete, Tahiti. However, we face multiple competitors from both domestic and foreign carriers on our other international routes.

(*) Our relations with labor unions representing our airline employees are governed by the Railway Labor Act of 1926. Under the Railway Labor Act, a collective bargaining agreement between us and the labor unions does not expire, but instead becomes amendable as of a stated date if either party wishes to modify the terms of the agreement.
(**) As of December 31, 2018 , contract negotiations are ongoing with the AFA.
Seasonality
Hawai'i is a popular vacation destination for travelers. For that reason, our operations and financial results are subject to substantial seasonal and cyclical volatility, primarily due to leisure and holiday travel patterns. Demand levels are typically weaker in the first quarter of the year with stronger demand periods occurring during June, July, August, and December. We may adjust our pricing or the availability of particular fares to obtain an optimal passenger load factor depending on seasonal demand differences.
Customers
Our business is not dependent upon any single customer or a few customers. The loss of any one customer would not have a material adverse effect on our business.
Regulation
Our business is subject to extensive and evolving international, federal, state and local laws and regulations. Many governmental agencies regularly examine our operations to monitor compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Governmental authorities can enforce compliance with applicable laws and regulations and obtain injunctions or impose civil or criminal penalties or modify, suspend, or revoke our operating certificates in case of violations.
Industry Regulations
We are subject to the regulatory jurisdiction of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The DOT has jurisdiction over international routes and fares for some countries (based upon treaty relations with those countries), consumer protection policies including baggage liability, denied boarding compensation, and unfair competitive practices as set forth in the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978. The FAA has regulatory jurisdiction over flight operations, including equipment, ground facilities, security systems, maintenance, and other safety matters. Pursuant to these regulations, we have established, and the FAA has approved, a maintenance program for each type of aircraft we operate that provides for the ongoing maintenance of our aircraft, ranging from frequent routine inspections to major overhauls.
Maintenance Directives
The FAA approves all airline maintenance programs, including modifications to the programs. In addition, the FAA licenses the repair stations and mechanics that perform inspections, repairs and overhauls, as well as the inspectors who monitor the work.
The FAA frequently issues airworthiness directives in response to specific incidents or reports by operators or manufacturers, requiring operators of specified equipment types to perform prescribed inspections, repairs or modifications within stated time periods or numbers of cycles. In the last several years, the FAA has issued a number of maintenance directives and other regulations relating to, among other things, wiring requirements for aging aircraft, fuel tank flammability, cargo compartment fire detection/suppression systems, collision avoidance systems, airborne windshear avoidance systems, noise abatement, and increased inspection requirements.

Table of Contents

Airport Security
The Aviation and Transportation Security Act (ATSA) mandates that the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) provide screening of all passengers and property, including mail, cargo, carry-on and checked baggage, and other articles that will be carried aboard a passenger aircraft. Under the ATSA, substantially all security screeners at airports are federal employees and airline and airport security is overseen and performed by federal employees, including security managers, law enforcement officers, and Federal Air Marshals. The ATSA also provides for increased security on flight decks of aircraft (and requires Federal Air Marshals to be present on certain flights), improved airport perimeter access security, airline crew security training, enhanced security screening of passengers, baggage, cargo, mail, employees and vendors, enhanced training and qualifications of security screening personnel, provision of passenger data to U.S. Customs and Border Protection and enhanced background checks.
The TSA also has the authority to impose additional fees on air carriers, if necessary, to cover additional federal aviation security costs.
Environmental and Employee Safety and Health
We are subject to various laws and regulations concerning environmental matters and employee safety and health in the U.S. and other countries in which we do business. Many aspects of airlines' operations are subject to increasingly stringent federal, state, local, and foreign laws protecting the environment. U.S. federal laws that have a particular impact on us include the Airport Noise and Capacity Act of 1990, the Clean Air Act, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, the Clean Water Act, the Safe Drinking Water Act, and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act. Certain of our operations are also subject to the oversight of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) concerning employee safety and health matters. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), OSHA, and other federal agencies have been authorized to promulgate regulations that affect our operations. In addition to these federal activities, states have been delegated certain authority under the aforementioned federal statutes. Many state and local governments have adopted environmental and employee safety and health laws and regulations, some of which are similar to or stricter than federal requirements, such as California.
The EPA is authorized to regulate aircraft emissions and has historically implemented emissions control standards previously adopted by the International Civil Aviation Organization. Our aircraft comply with the existing EPA standards as applicable by engine design date.
We seek to minimize the impact of carbon emissions from our operations through reductions in our fuel consumption and other efforts. We have reduced the fuel needs of our aircraft fleet through the retirement and replacement of certain aircraft in our fleet with newer, more fuel efficient aircraft. In addition, we have implemented fuel saving procedures in our flight and ground support operations that further reduce carbon emissions. In 2012, we earned the first-ever aviation based carbon credits through the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions with the use of an eco-friendly engine washing technology. We are also supporting initiatives to develop alternative fuels and efforts to modernize the air traffic control system in the U.S. as part of our efforts to reduce our emissions and minimize our impact on the environment.
Noise Abatement
Under the Airport Noise and Capacity Act, the DOT allows local airport authorities to implement procedures designed to abate special noise problems, provided such procedures do not unreasonably interfere with interstate and foreign commerce, or the national transportation system. Certain airports, including the major airports at Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, and San Jose, California; Sydney, Australia; and Tokyo, Japan, have established airport restrictions to limit noise, including restrictions on aircraft types to be used and limits on the number of hourly or daily operations or the time of such operations. Local authorities at other airports could consider adopting similar noise restrictions. In some instances, these restrictions have caused curtailments in services or increases in operating costs, and such restrictions could limit our ability to expand our operations.
Civil Reserve Air Fleet Program
The U.S. Department of Defense regulates the Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF) and government charters. We have elected to participate in the CRAF program by agreeing to make aircraft available to the federal government for use by the U.S. military under certain stages of readiness related to national emergencies. The program is a standby arrangement that allows the U.S. Department of Defense U.S. Transportation Command to call on as many as 12 contractually committed Hawaiian aircraft and crews to supplement military airlift capabilities. None of our aircraft are presently mobilized under this program.
Other Regulations
The State of Hawai'i is uniquely dependent upon air transportation. The Hawai'i state legislature has enacted legislation that reflects and attempts to address its concerns. For example, House Bill 2250 HD1, Act 1 of the 2008 Special Session, establishes

7

Table of Contents

a statutory scheme for the regulation of Hawai'i neighbor island air carriers, provided that federal legislation is enacted to permit its implementation. The U.S. Congress has yet to enact legislation that would allow this proposed legislation to go into effect.
Additionally, several aspects of airline operations are subject to regulation or oversight by federal agencies other than the FAA and the DOT. Federal antitrust laws are enforced by the U.S. Department of Justice. The U.S. Postal Service has jurisdiction over certain aspects of the transportation of mail and related services provided by our cargo services. Labor relations in the air transportation industry are generally regulated under the Railway Labor Act. We and other airlines certificated prior to October 24, 1978 are also subject to preferential hiring rights granted by the Airline Deregulation Act to certain airline employees who have been furloughed or terminated (other than for cause). The Federal Communications Commission issues licenses and regulates the use of all communications frequencies assigned to us and other airlines. There is increased focus on consumer protection both on the federal and state level. We cannot always accurately predict the cost of such requirements on our operations.
Additional laws and regulations are proposed from time to time, which could significantly increase the cost of airline operations by imposing additional requirements or restrictions. U.S. law restricts the ownership of U.S. airlines to corporations where no more than 25% of the voting stock may be held by non-U.S. citizens and the airline must be under the actual control of U.S. citizens. The President and two thirds of the Board of Directors and other managing officers must also be U.S. citizens. Regulations also have been considered from time to time that would prohibit or restrict the ownership and/or transfer of airline routes or takeoff and landing slots and authorizations. Also, the award of international routes to U.S. carriers (and their retention) is regulated by treaties and related agreements between the U.S. and foreign governments, which are amended from time to time. We cannot predict what laws and regulations will be adopted or what changes to international air transportation treaties will be adopted, if any, or how we will be affected by those changes.

ITEM 1A.    RISK FACTORS.
In addition to the risks identified elsewhere in this report, the following risk factors apply to our business, results of operations, and financial conditions.
ECONOMIC RISKS
Our business is affected by global economic volatility.
Our business and results of operations are significantly impacted by general world-wide economic conditions. Demand for discretionary purchases including air travel and vacations to Hawai'i remains unpredictable. Deterioration in demand resulting from economic uncertainty or another recession may result in a reduction in our passenger traffic and/or increased competitive pressure on fares in the markets we serve, which would negatively impact our results of operations and financial condition. We cannot assure that we would be able to offset such revenue reductions by reducing our costs.

Table of Contents

Our business is highly dependent on tourism to, from, and amongst the Hawaiian Islands and our financial results could suffer if there is a downturn in tourism levels.
Our principal base of operations is in Hawai'i and our revenue is linked primarily to the number of travelers (mainly tourists) to, from and amongst the Hawaiian Islands. Hawai'i tourism levels are affected by the political and economic climate in Hawai'i's main tourism markets, the availability of hotel accommodations, the popularity of Hawai'i as a tourist destination relative to other vacation destinations, and other global factors, including natural disasters, safety, and security. From time to time, various events and industry specific problems such as labor strikes have had a negative impact on tourism in Hawai'i. The occurrence of natural disasters, such as hurricanes, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and tsunamis, in Hawai'i or other parts of the world, could also have a material adverse effect on Hawai'i tourism. In addition, the potential or actual occurrence of terrorist attacks, wars, and the threat of other negative world events have had, and may in the future have, a material adverse effect on Hawai'i tourism. A decline in the level of Hawai'i passenger traffic could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
Our business is highly dependent on the price and availability of fuel.
Our results and operations are heavily impacted by the price and availability of jet fuel. While we have benefited in the past from lower fuel costs, fuel costs increased in 2017 and 2018 and we cannot assure that fuel costs will not increase further in the future. The cost and availability of jet fuel remains volatile and is subject to political, economic, and market factors that are generally outside of our control. Prices may be affected by many factors including, without limitation, the impact of political instability, crude oil production and refining capacity, unexpected changes in the availability of petroleum products due to disruptions to distribution systems or refineries, unpredicted increases in demand due to weather or the pace of global economic growth, inventory reserve levels of crude oil and other petroleum products, the relative fluctuation between the U.S. dollar and other major currencies, and the actions of speculators in commodity markets. Because of the effects of these factors on the price and availability of jet fuel, the cost and future availability of fuel cannot be predicted with any degree of certainty. Also, due to the competitive nature of the airline industry, there can be no assurance that we will be able to increase our fares or other fees to sufficiently offset any increase in fuel prices.
We enter into derivative agreements to protect against the volatility of fuel costs. There is no assurance that such agreements will protect us during unfavorable market conditions or that our counterparties will be able to perform under these hedge arrangements.
See Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk , for further information regarding our exposure to the price of fuel.
Our business is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.
Our business is expanding internationally with an increasing percentage of our passenger revenue generated from our International routes. The fluctuation of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies can significantly affect our results of operations and financial condition. To manage the effects of fluctuating exchange rates, we periodically enter into foreign currency forward contracts, execute payment of expenditures in those locations in local currency, and recently entered into $86.5 million in Japanese Yen denominated debt in connection with two aircraft financing transactions. There is no assurance that such agreements will protect us against foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations during unfavorable market conditions or that our counterparties will be able to perform under these hedge arrangements.
See Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk , for further information regarding our exposure to the foreign currency exchange rates.
COMPETITIVE ENVIRONMENT RISKS
We operate in an extremely competitive environment.
The airline industry is characterized by low profit margins, high fixed costs, and significant price competition. We compete with other airlines on all of our Domestic and International routes. The commencement of, or increase in, service on our routes by existing or new carriers could negatively impact our operating results. Many of our competitors on our North America and International routes are much larger and have greater financial resources and brand recognition than we do. Aggressive marketing tactics or a prolonged fare war initiated by one or more of these competitors could adversely affect our financial resources and our ability to compete in these markets. Since airline markets have few natural barriers to entry, we also face the constant threat of new entrants in all of our markets.

Additional capacity to Hawai'i, whether from network carriers or LCCs, could decrease our share of the markets in which we operate, could cause a decline in our yields, or both, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
The concentration of our business in Hawai'i, and between Hawai'i and the U.S. mainland, provides little diversification of our revenue.
During 2018 , approximately 74% of our passenger revenue was generated from our Domestic routes. Many of our competitors, particularly major network carriers with whom we compete on our North America routes, enjoy greater geographical diversification of their revenue. A reduction in the level of demand for travel within Hawai'i, or to Hawai'i from the U.S. mainland, or an increase in the level of industry capacity on these routes, may reduce the revenue we are able to generate and adversely affect our financial results. As these routes account for a significantly higher proportion of our revenue than they do for many of our competitors, such a reduction would have a relatively greater adverse effect on our financial results.
Our business is affected by the competitive advantages held by network carriers in the North America market.
During 2018 , approximately 52% of our passenger revenue was generated from our North America routes. The majority of competition on our North America routes is from network carriers such as Alaska Airlines, American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, and United Airlines, all of whom have a number of competitive advantages. Primarily, network carriers generate passenger traffic from and throughout the U.S. mainland, which enable them to attract higher customer traffic levels as compared to us. Also, there have been recent announcements by other carriers, such as Southwest Airlines, that there will be an increase in capacity to and from Hawai'i, and possibly amongst the Hawaiian Islands.
In contrast, we lack a comparable direct network to feed passengers to our North America flights and are therefore more reliant on passenger demand in the specific cities we serve. We also rely on our code-share partner agreements (e.g. with JetBlue) to provide customers access to and from North American destinations currently unserved by us. Most network carriers operate from hubs, which can provide a built-in market of passengers depending on the economic strength of the hub city and the size of the customer group that frequent the airline. Our Honolulu and Maui hubs do not originate a large proportion of North American travel, nor do they have the population or potential customer franchise of a larger city to provide us with a built-in market. Passengers in the North American market, for the most part, do not originate in Honolulu, but on the U.S. mainland, making Honolulu primarily a destination rather than an origin of passenger traffic.
Our Neighbor Island routes are affected by increased capacity provided by our competitors.
During 2018 , approximately 22% of our passenger revenue was generated from our Neighbor Island routes. Although we enjoy a strong competitive position on our Neighbor Island routes, our competitors could increase capacity to Hawai'i either by introducing new routes or increasing the frequency of existing routes from North America to the Neighbor Islands or by the introduction of additional flights within the Neighbor Islands. This additional capacity could have the effect of decreasing our share of traffic on our Neighbor Island routes, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
Our International routes are affected by competition from domestic and foreign carriers.
During 2018 , approximately 26% of our passenger revenue was generated from our International routes. Our competitors on these routes include both domestic and foreign carriers. Both domestic and foreign competitors have a number of competitive advantages that may enable them to attract higher customer traffic levels as compared to us.
Many of our domestic competitors have joined airline alliances, which provide customers access to each participating airline's international network, allowing for convenience and connectivity to their destinations. These alliances formed by our domestic competitors have increased in recent years. In some instances our domestic competitors have been granted antitrust exemptions to form joint venture arrangements in certain geographies, further deepening their cooperation on certain routes. To mitigate this risk, we rely on code-share agreements with partner airlines to provide customers access to international destinations currently unserved by us.
Many of our foreign competitors are network carriers that benefit from network feed to support International routes on which we compete. In contrast, we lack a comparable direct network to feed passengers to our International flights, and are therefore more reliant on passenger demand in the specific destinations that we serve. Most network carriers operate from hubs, which can provide a built-in home base market of passengers. Passengers on our International routes, for the most part, do not originate in Hawai'i, but rather internationally, in these foreign carriers' home bases. We also rely on our code-share agreements

and our relationships with travel agencies and wholesale distributors to provide customers access to and from International destinations currently unserved by us.
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND THIRD-PARTY RISKS
If we do not maintain the privacy and security of customer-related information or fail to comply with applicable U.S. and foreign privacy or data security regulations or security standards imposed by our commercial partners, our reputation could be damaged, we could incur substantial additional costs, and we could become subject to litigation or regulatory penalties.
We receive, retain, and transmit personal information about our customers and we are subject to increasing legislative, regulatory and customer focus on privacy and data security both domestically and internationally. A number of our commercial partners, including credit card companies, have imposed data security standards that we are obligated to meet and these standards continue to evolve. We will continue our efforts to meet new and increasing privacy and security standards; however, it is possible that such new standards may prove difficult to meet, require us to expend additional resources, and result in us being unable to process credit card transactions if determined to be non-compliant. Additionally, any compromise of our technology systems could result in the loss, disclosure, misappropriation of or access to our customers’, employees’ or business partners’ information. Any such loss, disclosure, misappropriation or access could result in legal claims or proceedings, liability or regulatory penalties under laws protecting the privacy of personal information. Any significant data breach or our failure to comply with applicable U.S. and foreign privacy or data security regulations or security standards imposed by our commercial partners may adversely affect our reputation, business, results of operations and financial condition, and may require that we expend significant additional resources related to the security of information systems.
We are increasingly dependent on technology and automated systems to operate our business.
We depend heavily on technology and automated systems to effectively operate our business. These systems include flight operations systems, communications systems, airport systems, reservations systems, management and accounting systems, commercial websites, including www.hawaiianairlines.com , and other systems, all of which must be able to accommodate high traffic volumes, maintain secure information and provide accurate flight information, as well as process critical financial related transactions. Any substantial or repeated failures of these systems could negatively affect our customer service, compromise the security of customer information, result in the loss of important data, loss of revenue and increased costs, and generally harm our business. Like other companies, our systems may be vulnerable to disruptions due to events beyond our control, including natural disasters, power disruptions, software or equipment failures, terrorist attacks, cybersecurity threats, computer viruses and hackers. There can be no assurance that the measures we have taken to reduce the adverse effects of certain potential failures or disruptions are adequate to prevent or remedy disruptions of our systems. In addition, we will need to continuously make significant investments in technology to periodically upgrade and replace existing systems. If we are unable to make these investments or fail to successfully implement, upgrade or replace our systems, our business could be adversely impacted.
We are highly reliant on third-party contractors to provide certain facilities and services for our operations, and termination of our third-party agreements could have a potentially adverse effect on our financial results.
There are a limited number of qualified employees and personnel in the airline and information technology industry, especially within the Hawai'i market. Due to these limitations, we historically relied on outside vendors for a variety of services and functions critical to our business, including aircraft maintenance and parts, code-sharing, reservations, computer services including hosting and software maintenance, accounting, frequent flyer programs, passenger processing, ground facilities, baggage and cargo handling, personnel training, and the distribution and sale of airline seats. Our reliance on outside vendors may continue to increase in the future.
The failure of any of our third-party service providers to adequately perform their service obligations, or other interruptions of services may reduce our revenues, increase expenses, and/or prevent us from operating our flights and providing other services to our customers. Our business and financial performance would be materially harmed if our customers believe that our services are unreliable or unsatisfactory.
LABOR RELATIONS AND RELATED COSTS RISKS
We are dependent on satisfactory labor relations.
Labor costs are a significant component of airline expenses and can substantially impact an airline's results of operations. A significant portion of our workforce is represented by labor unions. We may make strategic and operational decisions that may

11

Table of Contents

require the consent of one or more of these labor unions, and these labor unions could demand additional wages, benefits or other consideration in return for their consent.
In addition, we have entered into collective bargaining agreements with our pilots, mechanical group employees, clerical group employees, flight attendants, and dispatchers. We cannot ensure that future agreements with our employees' labor unions will be on terms in line with our expectations or comparable to agreements entered into by our competitors, and any future agreements may increase our labor costs or otherwise adversely affect our business. We are currently in labor negotiations with our flight attendants' union, AFA, whose contract became amendable on January 1, 2017. If we are unable to reach an agreement with any unionized work group, we may be subject to future work interruptions and/or stoppages, which may hamper or halt operations. In addition, the threat of future work interruptions and/or stoppages may cause a decline in our passenger traffic, negatively impacting our results of operations and financial condition.
Our operations may be adversely affected if we are unable to attract and retain qualified personnel and key executives.
We believe that our future success is dependent on the knowledge and expertise of our key executives and highly qualified management, technical, and other personnel. Attracting and retaining such personnel in the airline industry is highly competitive. We cannot be certain that we will be able to retain our key executives or attract other qualified personnel in the future. Any inability to retain our key executives, or attract and retain additional qualified executives, could have a negative impact on our operations.
In addition, as we continue to expand our operations through the acquisition of new aircraft and introduction of service to new markets, it may be challenging to attract a sufficient number of qualified personnel including pilots, mechanics and other skilled labor. As we compete with other carriers for qualified personnel, we also face the challenge of attracting individuals who embrace our team-oriented, friendly and customer-driven corporate culture. Our inability to attract and retain qualified personnel who embrace our corporate culture could have a negative impact on our reputation and overall operations.
STRATEGY AND BRAND RISKS
Our failure to successfully implement our route and network strategy could harm our business.
Our route and network strategy (how we determine to deploy our fleet) includes initiatives to increase revenue, decrease costs, mature our network, and improve distribution of our sales channels. It is critical that we execute upon our planned strategy in order for our business to attain economies of scale and to sustain or improve our results of operations. If we are unable to utilize and fill increased capacity provided by additional aircraft entering our fleet, hire and retain skilled personnel, or secure the required equipment and facilities in a cost-effective manner, we may be unable to successfully develop and grow our new and existing markets, which may adversely affect our business and operations.
We continue to strive toward aggressive cost-containment goals which are an important part of our business strategy to offer the best value to passengers through competitive fares while maintaining acceptable profit margins and return on capital. We believe a lower cost structure will better position us to fund our strategy and take advantage of market opportunities. If we are unable to adequately contain our non-fuel unit costs, our financial results may suffer.
Our reputation and financial results could be harmed in the event of adverse publicity, including the event of an aircraft accident or incident.
Our customer base is broad and our business activities have significant prominence, particularly in Hawai'i and other destinations we serve. Consequently, negative publicity resulting from real or perceived shortcomings in our customer service, employee relations, business conduct, or other events affecting our operations could negatively affect the public image of our company and the willingness of customers to purchase services from us, which could affect our financial results.
Additionally, we are exposed to potential losses that may be incurred in the event of an aircraft accident or incident. Any such accident or incident involving our aircraft or an aircraft operated by one of our code-share partners could involve not only the repair or replacement of a damaged aircraft and its consequential temporary or permanent loss of revenue, but also significant claims of injured passengers and others. We are required by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) to carry liability insurance, and although we currently maintain liability insurance in amounts consistent with the industry, we cannot be assured that our insurance coverage will adequately cover us from all claims and we may be forced to bear substantial losses incurred with an accident. In addition, any aircraft accident or incident could cause a public perception that we are less safe or reliable than other airlines, which would harm our business.

AIRLINE INDUSTRY, REGULATION AND RELATED COSTS RISKS
The airline industry has substantial operating leverage and is affected by many conditions that are beyond its control, which could harm our financial condition and results of operations.
Due to the substantial fixed costs associated with operating an airline, there is a disproportionate relationship between the cost of operating each flight and the number of passengers carried. However, the revenue generated from a particular flight is directly related to the number of passengers carried and the respective average fares applied. Accordingly, a decrease in the number of passengers carried would cause a corresponding decrease in revenue (if not offset by higher fares), and it may result in a disproportionately greater decrease in profits. Therefore, any general reduction in airline passenger traffic as a result of any of the following or other factors, which are largely outside of our control, could harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations:
decline in general economic conditions;
continued threat of terrorist attacks and conflicts overseas;
actual or threatened war and political instability;
increased security measures or breaches in security;
adverse weather and natural disasters;
changes in consumer preferences, perceptions, or spending patterns;
increased costs related to security and safety measures;
increased fares as a result of increases in fuel costs;
outbreaks of contagious diseases or fear of contagion; and
congestion at airports and actual or potential disruptions in the air traffic control system.
Our results of operations may be volatile due to the conditions identified above. We cannot ensure that our financial resources will be sufficient to absorb the effects of any of these unexpected factors should they occur.
Our financial results and operations may be negatively affected by the State of Hawai'i's airport modernization plan.
The State of Hawai'i has begun to implement a modernization plan encompassing the airports we serve within the State. Our landing fees and airport rent rates have increased to fund the modernization program. Additionally, we expect the costs for our Neighbor Island operations to increase more than the costs related to our North America and International operations due to phased adjustments of the airports' funding mechanism. Therefore, costs related to the modernization program will have a greater impact on our operations as compared to our competitors, who do not have significant Neighbor Island operations. We can offer no assurance that we will be successful in offsetting these cost increases through other cost reductions or increases in our revenue and, therefore, can offer no assurance that our future financial results will not be negatively affected by them.
Our operations may be disrupted if we are unable to obtain and maintain adequate facilities and infrastructure at airports within the State of Hawai'i.
We must be able to maintain and/or obtain adequate gates, maintenance capacity, office space, operations areas, and ticketing facilities at the airports within the State of Hawai'i to be able to operate our existing and proposed flight schedules. Failure to maintain such facilities and infrastructure may adversely impact our operations and financial performance.
Our business is subject to substantial seasonal and cyclical volatility.
Our results of operations reflect the impact of seasonal volatility primarily due to passenger leisure and holiday travel patterns. As Hawai'i is a popular vacation destination, demand from North America, our largest source of visitors, is typically stronger during June, July, August and December and considerably weaker at other times of the year. Because of fluctuations in our results from seasonality, operating results for a historical period are not necessarily indicative of operating results for a future period and operating results for an interim period are not necessarily indicative of operating results for an entire year.

Terrorist attacks or international hostilities, or the fear of terrorist attacks or hostilities, even if not made directly on the airline industry, could negatively affect us and the airline industry.
Terrorist attacks, even if not made directly on the airline industry, or the fear of such attacks, hostilities or act of war, could adversely affect the airline industry, including us, and could result in a significant decrease in demand for air travel, increased security costs, increased insurance costs covering war-related risks, and increased flight operational loss due to cancellations and delays. Any future terrorist attacks or the implementation of additional security-related fees could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, and on the airline industry in general.
The airline industry is subject to extensive government regulation, new regulations, and taxes which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
Airlines are subject to extensive regulatory requirements that result in significant costs. New, and modifications to existing, laws, regulations, taxes and airport rates, and charges imposed by domestic and foreign governments have been proposed from time to time that could significantly increase the cost of airline operations, restrict operations or reduce revenue. The FAA from time to time issues directives and other regulations relating to the maintenance and operation of aircraft that require significant expenditures. Some FAA requirements cover, among other things, retirement of older aircraft, security measures, collision avoidance systems, airborne windshear avoidance systems, noise abatement and other environmental concerns, commuter aircraft safety and increased inspections, and maintenance procedures to be conducted on older aircraft. A failure to be in compliance, or a modification, suspension or revocation of any of our DOT/FAA authorizations or certificates, would have a material adverse impact on our operations.
We cannot predict the impact that laws or regulations may have on our operations, nor can we ensure that laws or regulations enacted in the future will not adversely affect our business. Further, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to obtain or maintain necessary governmental approvals. Once obtained, operating permits are subject to modification and revocation by the issuing agencies. Compliance with these and any future regulatory requirements could require us to incur significant capital and operating expenditures.
In addition to extensive government regulations, the airline industry is dependent on certain services provided by government agencies (DOT, FAA, CBP, TSA, etc.). Furthermore, because of significantly higher security and other costs incurred by airports since September 11, 2001, many airports have significantly increased their rates and charges to airlines, including us, and may do so again in the future.
Federal budget constraints or federally imposed furloughs due to budget negotiation deadlocks may adversely affect our industry, business, results of operations and financial position.
Many of our airline operations are regulated by governmental agencies, including the FAA, the DOT, the CBP, the TSA, and others. If the federal government operations were to experience issues in reaching budgetary consensus in the future resulting in mandatory furloughs and/or other budget constraints, our business and results of operations could be materially negatively impacted.
The airline industry is required to comply with various environmental laws and regulations, which could inhibit our ability to operate and could also have an adverse effect on our results of operations.
Many aspects of airlines' operations are subject to increasingly stringent federal, state, local, and foreign laws protecting the environment. U.S. federal laws that have a particular impact on us include the Airport Noise and Capacity Act of 1990, the Clean Air Act, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, the Clean Water Act, the Safe Drinking Water Act, the Comprehensive Environmental Response Act and the Compensation and Liability Act. Compliance with these and other environmental laws and regulations can require significant expenditures, and violations can lead to significant fines and penalties. Governments globally are increasingly focusing on the environmental impact caused by the consumption of fossil fuels and as a result have proposed or enacted legislation which may increase the cost of providing airline service or restrict its provision. We expect the focus on environmental matters to increase.
Concern about climate change and greenhouse gases may result in additional regulation of aircraft emissions in the U.S. and abroad. In addition, other legislative or regulatory action to regulate greenhouse gas emissions is possible. At this time, we cannot predict whether any such legislation or regulation would apportion costs between one or more jurisdictions in which we operate flights. We are monitoring and evaluating the potential impact of such legislative and regulatory developments.

14

Table of Contents

In addition to direct costs, such regulation may have a greater effect on the airline industry through increases in fuel costs. The impact to us and our industry from such actions is likely to be adverse and could be significant, particularly if regulators were to conclude that emissions from commercial aircraft cause significant harm to the atmosphere or have a greater impact on climate change than other industries.
Our operations may be adversely affected by our expansion into non-U.S. jurisdictions and the related laws and regulations to which we are subject.
The expansion of our operations into non-U.S. jurisdictions has expanded the scope of the laws and regulations to which we are subject, both domestically and internationally. Compliance with the laws and regulations of foreign jurisdictions and the restrictions on operations that these laws, regulations or other government actions may impose could significantly increase the cost of airline operations or reduce revenue. For example, a number of our destinations in Asia have been revising their privacy and consumer laws and regulations. Failure to comply with these evolving laws or regulations could result in significant penalties, criminal charges, costs to defend in a foreign jurisdiction, restrictions on operations and reputational damage. In addition, we operate flights on international routes regulated by treaties and related agreements between the U.S. and foreign governments, which are subject to change as they may be amended from time to time. Modifications of these arrangements could result in an inability to obtain or retain take-off or landing slots for our routes, route authorization and necessary facilities. Any limitations, additions or modifications to government treaties, agreements, regulations, laws or policies related to our international routes could have a material adverse impact on our financial position and results of operations.
We may be party to litigation or regulatory action in the normal course of business or otherwise, which could have an adverse effect on our operations and financial results.
From time to time, we are a party to or otherwise involved in legal or regulatory proceedings, claims, government inspections, investigations or other legal matters, both domestically and in foreign jurisdictions. Resolving or defending legal matters can take months or years. The duration of such matters can be unpredictable with many variables that we do not control including adverse party or government responses. Litigation and regulatory proceedings are subject to significant uncertainty and may be expensive, time-consuming and disruptive to our operations. In addition, an adverse resolution of a lawsuit, regulatory matter, investigation or other proceeding could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. We may be required to change or restrict our operations or be subject to injunctive relief, significant compensatory damages, punitive damages, penalties, fines or disgorgement of profits, none of which may be covered by insurance. We may have to pay out settlements that also may not be covered by insurance. There can be no assurance that any of these payments or actions will not be material. In addition, publicity of ongoing legal and regulatory matters may adversely affect our reputation.
Our insurance costs are susceptible to significant increases, and further increases in insurance costs or reductions in coverage could have an adverse effect on our financial results.
We carry types and amounts of insurance customary in the airline industry, including coverage for general liability, passenger liability, property damage, aircraft loss or damage, baggage and cargo liability, and workers' compensation. We are required by the DOT to carry liability insurance on each of our aircraft. We currently maintain commercial airline insurance with a major group of independent insurers that regularly participate in world aviation insurance markets, including public liability insurance and coverage for losses resulting from the physical destruction or damage to our aircraft. However, there can be no assurance that the amount of such coverage will not change or that we will not bear substantial losses from accidents or damage to, or loss of, aircraft or other property due to other factors such as natural disasters. We could incur substantial claims resulting from an accident or damage to, or loss of, aircraft or other property due to other factors such as natural disasters in excess of related insurance coverage that could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
Extended interruptions or disruptions in service could have a material adverse impact on our operations.
Our financial results may be adversely affected by factors outside our control, including, but not limited to, flight cancellations, significant delays in operations, and facility disruptions. Our principal base of operations is in Hawai'i and a significant interruption or disruption in service could have a serious impact on our business and results of operations. Natural disasters, such as hurricanes, earthquakes and tsunamis, may impact the demand for transportation in the markets in which we operate. In 2018 , we faced the impacts of two hurricanes within the vicinity of the State of Hawai'i as well as increased volcanic activity on the Big Island of Hawai'i. There may be a lingering impact to demand on Hawai'i tourism and aviation transportation following weather-related events.

FLEET AND FLEET-RELATED RISKS
We are dependent on a limited number of suppliers for aircraft, aircraft engines and parts.
We are dependent on a limited number of suppliers (e.g. Airbus, Boeing, Rolls Royce, Pratt & Whitney) for aircraft, aircraft engines, and aircraft-related items. As a result, we are vulnerable to any problems associated with the supply of those aircraft and parts and/or operational disruptions, which could result in increased parts and maintenance costs in future years.
Our agreements to purchase Airbus A321neo aircraft and Boeing 787-9 aircraft represent significant future financial commitments and operating costs.
As of December 31, 2018 , we had the following firm order commitments and purchase rights for additional aircraft:
Aircraft Type

Between 2019 and 2020
B787-9 aircraft

Between 2021 and 2025
We have made substantial pre-delivery payments for Airbus and Boeing aircraft under existing purchase agreements and are required to continue these pre-delivery payments as well as make payments for the balance of the purchase price through delivery of each aircraft. These commitments substantially increase our future capital spending requirements and may require us to increase our level of debt in future years. In 2019, we have significant obligations in order to fund our current aircraft orders and we are continuing to evaluate our options to finance these orders via our operating cash flows and debt financing. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain such financing on favorable terms, or at all.
Delays in scheduled aircraft deliveries or other loss of fleet capacity may adversely impact our operations and financial results.
The success of our business depends on, among other things, the ability to effectively operate a certain number and type of aircraft. As noted above, we have contractual commitments to purchase and integrate additional Airbus aircraft or Boeing aircraft into our fleet. If for any reason we are unable to secure deliveries of the Airbus aircraft or Boeing aircraft on the contractually scheduled delivery dates and successfully introduce these aircraft into our fleet, then our business, operations, and financial performance could be negatively impacted. Delays in scheduled aircraft deliveries or our failure to integrate newly purchased aircraft into our fleet as planned may require us to utilize our existing fleet longer than expected. Such extensions may require us to operate existing aircraft beyond the point at which it is economically optimal to retire them, resulting in increased maintenance costs.
We may never realize the full value of our long-lived assets, resulting in impairment and other related charges that may negatively impact our financial position and results of operations.
Economic and intrinsic triggers, which include extreme fuel price volatility, an uncertain economic and credit environment, unfavorable trends in historical or forecasted results of operations and cash flows, as well as other uncertainties, may cause us to record material impairments of our long-lived assets. We could be subject to impairment charges in the future that could have an adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations in future periods.
COMMON STOCK RISKS
Our share price is subject to fluctuations and stockholders could have difficulty trading shares.
The market price of our stock is influenced by many factors, many of which are outside of our control, and include the following:
operating results and financial condition;
changes in the competitive environment in which we operate;
fuel price volatility including the availability of fuel;

16

Table of Contents

announcements concerning our competitors including bankruptcy filings, mergers, restructurings or acquisitions by other airlines;
increases or changes in government regulation;
general and industry specific market conditions;
changes in financial estimates or recommendations by securities analysts; and
sales of our common stock or other actions by investors with significant shareholdings.
In recent years the stock market has experienced volatile price and volume fluctuations that often have been unrelated to the operating performance of individual companies. These market fluctuations, as well as general economic conditions, may affect the price of our common stock.
In the past, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against a company following periods of volatility in its stock price. This type of litigation, if filed against us, could result in substantial costs and divert our management's attention and resources. In addition, the future sale of a substantial number of shares of common stock by us or by our existing stockholders may have an adverse impact on the market price of our common stock. There can be no assurance that the trading price of our common stock will remain at or near its current level.
Certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may delay or prevent a change of control, which could materially adversely affect the price of our common stock.
Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that may make it difficult to remove our Board of Directors and management, and may discourage or delay a change of control, which could materially and adversely affect the price of our common stock. These provisions include, among others:
the ability of our Board of Directors to issue, without further action by the stockholders, series of undesignated preferred stock , or rights to acquire preferred stock, that could dilute the interest of, or impair the voting power of, holders of our common stock or could also be used as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change of control ;
advance notice procedures for stockholder proposals to be considered at stockholders’ meetings and for nominations of candidates for election to our Board of Directors;
the ability of our Board of Directors to fill vacancies on the board;
a prohibition against stockholders taking action by written consent;
a prohibition against stockholders calling special meetings of stockholders; and
super-majority voting requirements to modify or amend specified provisions of our certificate of incorporation.
Our certificate of incorporation includes a provision limiting voting and ownership by non-U.S. citizens and our bylaws include a provision specifying an exclusive forum for stockholder disputes.
To comply with restrictions imposed by federal law on foreign ownership of U.S. airlines, our certificate of incorporation restricts voting of shares of our common stock by non-U.S. citizens. Our certificate of incorporation provides that the failure of non-U.S. citizens to register their shares on a separate stock record, which we refer to as the “foreign stock record,” would result in a suspension of their voting rights in the event that the aggregate foreign ownership of the outstanding common stock exceeds the foreign ownership restrictions imposed by federal law.

Our certificate of incorporation further provides that no shares of our common stock will be registered on the foreign stock record if the amount so registered would exceed the foreign ownership restrictions imposed by federal law. If it is determined that the amount registered in the foreign stock record exceeds the foreign ownership restrictions imposed by federal law, shares will be removed from the foreign stock record in reverse chronological order based on the date of registration therein, until the number of shares registered therein does not exceed the foreign ownership restrictions imposed by federal law. As of  December 31, 2018 , we believe we were in compliance with the foreign ownership rules.

Our bylaws provide that, unless we consent in writing to an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if such court lacks jurisdiction, any other state or federal court located in the State of Delaware will be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of us; (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our current or former directors, officers or other employees to us or our stockholders; (iii) any action asserting a claim against us or any of our directors, officers or other employees arising pursuant to any provision of the Delaware General Corporation Law or our certificate of incorporation or bylaws (as each may be amended or restated from time to time); or (iv) any action asserting a claim against us or any of our directors, officers or other employees governed by the internal affairs doctrine. Accordingly, stockholders may be limited in the forum in which they are able to pursue legal actions against us.
We cannot guarantee that we will repurchase our common stock pursuant to our share repurchase program or continue to pay dividends on our common stock.
Our intent to continue to repurchase our shares pursuant to our stock repurchase program and to continue to pay quarterly dividends is subject to capital availability, market and economic conditions, applicable legal requirements, and other relevant factors. The stock repurchase program may be limited, suspended, or discontinued at any time without prior notice.
In 2018, we initiated the quarterly issuance of dividends to our stockholders of record. We cannot provide any assurance that we will continue to declare dividends for any fixed period, and the payment of dividends may be suspended or adjusted at any time at our discretion. We will evaluate, on a quarterly basis, the amount and timing of future dividends based on our operating results, financial condition, capital requirements, and general business conditions.
LIQUIDITY RISKS
See Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations , for further information regarding our liquidity.
Our financial liquidity could be adversely affected by credit market conditions.
Our business requires access to capital markets to finance equipment purchases, including aircraft, and to provide liquidity in seasonal or cyclical periods of weaker revenue generation. In particular, we will face specific funding requirements with respect to our obligation under purchase agreements with Airbus and Boeing to acquire new aircraft. We may finance these upcoming aircraft deliveries; however, the unpredictability of global credit market conditions may adversely affect the availability of financing or may result in unfavorable terms and conditions. We can offer no assurance that the financing we need will be available when required or that the economic terms on which it is available will not adversely affect our financial condition. If we cannot obtain financing or we cannot obtain financing on commercially reasonable terms, our business and financial condition may be adversely affected.
Our debt could adversely affect our liquidity and financial condition, and include covenants that impose restrictions on our financial and business operations.
As of December 31, 2018 , we had $468 million in outstanding debt. Our debt and related covenants could:
require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on our debt, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow for other operational purposes;
limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate;
limit, along with the financial and other restrictive covenants in the agreements governing our debt, our ability to borrow additional funds;
place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to other less leveraged competitors and competitors with debt agreements on more favorable terms than us; and
adversely affect our ability to secure additional financing in the future on acceptable terms or at all, which would impact our ability to fund our working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or other general purpose needs.
These agreements require us to meet certain covenants. If we breach any of these covenants we could be in a default under these facilities, which could cause our outstanding obligations under these facilities to accelerate and become due and payable immediately, and could also cause us to default under our other debt or lease obligations and lead to an acceleration of the

18

Table of Contents

obligations related to such other debt or lease obligations. The existence of such a default could also preclude us from borrowing funds under our credit facilities.
Our ability to comply with the provisions of financing agreements can be affected by events beyond our control and a default under any such financing agreements if not cured or waived, could have a material adverse effect on us. In the event our debt is accelerated, we may not have sufficient liquidity to repay these obligations or to refinance our debt obligations, resulting in a material adverse effect on our financial condition.
We are required to maintain reserves under our credit card processing agreements which could adversely affect our financial and business operations.
Under our bank-issued credit card processing agreements, certain proceeds from advance ticket sales may be held back to serve as collateral to cover any possible chargebacks or other disputed charges that may occur. These holdbacks, which are included in restricted cash of our consolidated balance sheets, totaled $1.0 million as of December 31, 2017 . As of December 31, 2018 , there were no holdbacks held with our credit card processors.
In the event of a material adverse change in our business, the holdback could incrementally increase to an amount up to 100% of the applicable credit card activity for all unflown flights, which would also cause an increase in the level of restricted cash. If we are unable to obtain a waiver, or otherwise mitigate the increase in restricted cash, it could adversely affect our liquidity and also cause a covenant violation under other debt or lease obligations and have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

In 2018 , we entered into a sale leaseback transaction with an independent third party for one A330-200 aircraft under an operating lease for a term of 12 years.

(2)
In 2018, we took delivery of nine Airbus A321-200 aircraft. In 2019, we expect to take delivery of an additional six Airbus A321-200 aircraft.

(3)
The decrease in leased Boeing 767-300 from 2017 to 2018 is due to the retirement of four aircraft. In the first quarter of 2019, we retired our remaining four aircraft, thereby completing our exit from the Boeing 767-300 fleet.

(4)
The ATR 42-500 turboprop aircraft are owned by Airline Contract Maintenance & Equipment, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In 2018, we took delivery of one ATR 42-500 turboprop aircraft.

(5)
The ATR 72-200 turboprop aircraft are used for our cargo operations.

In 2013, we entered into an agreement for the purchase of 16 new Airbus A321neo aircraft with purchase rights for an additional nine aircraft with scheduled for deliveries from 2017 to 2020. In 2018 , we took delivery of seven firm ordered aircraft, bringing our total delivered aircraft to nine. We have seven additional A321neo deliveries scheduled in 2019 and 2020 as reflected above, bringing the total purchased A321neo aircraft to 16. The Airbus A321neo narrow-body aircraft will be used to complement Hawaiian's existing fleet of wide-body aircraft for travel to and from the West Coast on our North America routes.

(2)
In February 2018, we exercised our right to terminate our aircraft purchase agreement with Airbus for six Airbus A330-800neo aircraft and the purchase rights for an additional six A330-800neo aircraft. Refer to Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements for discussion of the contract termination charge. In July 2018, we entered into a purchase agreement for the purchase of 10 Boeing 787-9 "Dreamliner" aircraft with purchase rights for an additional 10 aircraft with scheduled deliveries from 2021 to 2025. These fuel efficient, long-range aircraft will complement our existing fleet of wide-body for long-haul Asia/Pacific and North America routes.

See Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding our aircraft lease agreements.
Ground Facilities
Our principal terminal facilities, cargo facilities and hangar and maintenance facilities are located at the Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (HNL). The majority of the facilities at HNL are leased on a month-to-month basis. We are also charged for the use of terminal facilities at other Neighbor Island airports owned by the State of Hawai'i. Some terminal facilities, including gates and holding rooms, are considered by the State of Hawai'i to be common areas and thus are not exclusively controlled by us. We also utilize other State of Hawai'i facilities, including station managers' offices, Premier Club lounges, and operations support space.

Our common stock is traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol "HA."
Holders
There were 749 stockholders of record of our common stock as of February 8, 2019, which does not reflect those shares held beneficially or those shares held in "street" name.
Dividends and Other Restrictions
We paid dividends of $24.2 million to shareholders of record during 2018 and $6.3 million during 2017 . In February 2019, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share payable on February 22, 2019 to stockholders of record as of February 8, 2019 .
Our dividend payments may change from time to time. We cannot provide assurance that we will continue to declare dividends for any fixed period and payment of dividends may be suspended at any time at our discretion.
United States law prohibits non-U.S. citizens from owning more than 25% of the voting interest of a U.S. air carrier or controlling a U.S. air carrier. Our certificate of incorporation prohibits the ownership or control of more than 25% (to be increased or decreased from time to time, as permitted under the laws of the U.S.) of our issued and outstanding voting capital stock by persons who are not "citizens of the U.S." As of December 31, 2018 , we believe we are in compliance with the law as it relates to voting stock held by non-U.S. citizens.

We adopted Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606), and restated the consolidated financial results as of and for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. Results from periods prior to 2016 have not been restated for the adoption of this standard. See Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.
(b)
In 2018, we entered into two Japanese Yen denominated debt agreements for a total value of $86.5 million to finance a portion of the purchase price of two Airbus A321neo aircraft. Additionally, we took delivery of two A321neo aircraft accounted for as a capital lease. In 2016, we extinguished $140.5 million of existing debt under three secured financing agreements, which were originally scheduled to mature in 2022 and 2023. In 2015, we extinguished $123.9 million of existing debt under four secured financing agreements, which were originally scheduled to mature in 2018, 2023, and 2024. We also repurchased $70.8 million in principal of our convertible notes. In 2014, we received proceeds of $368.4 million in connection with the EETC financing for the purchase of five Airbus A330-200 aircraft. See further discussion at Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements.
(c)
We recognized a one-time benefit of $83.0 million , or $1.55 per common stock share, during the year ended December 31, 2017 as a result of the Tax Reform Act enacted in December 2017. During the year ended December 31, 2018, we completed our accounting for the effects of the Tax Act and recorded an additional tax benefit of $9.3 million .

ITEM 7.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Overview
The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) is intended to help the reader understand the Company and its operations. This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections of future events. However, our actual results could differ materially from those discussed herein as a result of the risks that we face, including but not limited to those risks stated in the "Risk Factors" section of this report. See "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" above. In addition, the following discussion should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.
Year in Review
2018 Financial Highlights
Operating income of $314 million compared to $464 million in the prior-year period.

Pre-tax income of $301 million compared to $391 million in the prior-year period.

GAAP net income of $233 million or $4.62 per diluted share compared to $331 million or $6.19 per diluted share in the prior year period.

Adjusted net income of $275 million or $5.44 per diluted share compared to $289 million or $5.41 per share in the prior year period.

Unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $501 million compared to $460 million in the prior year period.
See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for our reconciliation of non-GAAP measures.
Outlook
Looking ahead, capacity increases in North America and parts of our International network are expected to increase in the first half of 2019. We expect our capacity to grow between 1.5% to 3.0% in the first quarter of 2019 as compared to the first quarter of 2018. For the first quarter of 2019, we expect the aforementioned increases in capacity will result in operating revenue per available seat mile to decrease between 3.0% to 6.0% as compared to the first quarter of 2018. We also expect that our operating costs per available seat mile will decrease by 3.8% to 7.1% during the first quarter of 2019, while our operating costs per available seat mile excluding fuel will increase by 1.0% to 4.0%.
For 2019, we expect the corporate federal tax rate will result in an all-in book tax rate for us of 25% to 27%.

(d)
Includes applicable taxes and fees.
Operating Revenue
Our revenue is derived primarily from transporting passengers on our aircraft. We record passenger revenue when the transportation is provided or upon scheduled flight for tickets expected to expire unused. We measure capacity in terms of available seat miles, which represent the number of seats available for passengers multiplied by the number of miles the seats are flown. Yield, or the average amount one passenger pays to fly one mile, is calculated by dividing passenger revenue by RPMs. We strive to increase passenger revenue primarily by increasing our yield per flight or by filling a higher proportion of available seats, which produces higher operating revenue per available seat mile. Other revenue primarily consists of cargo revenue, incidental services revenue, marketing component related to the sale of frequent flyer miles, contract services and charter services revenue.
Operating revenue was $2.84 billion , $2.68 billion and $2.43 billion for the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively. The increase in operating revenue in 2018 from 2017 was driven primarily by an increase in passenger revenue and is discussed below:

Domestic revenue increased by $58.9 million driven by a 2.7% increase in passengers flown on our domestic routes, partially offset by a 1.2% decline in average fares. Unit revenue declines primarily resulted from capacity growth in the region, specifically between Hawai'i and North America, combined with a reduction in travel attributed to weather-related events impacting the State of Hawai'i.
International revenue increased by $57.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2018 as compared to the prior year period driven by a combination of increased passenger counts and average fares, which outpaced capacity growth. In 2017, we completed the upgrade of our first class cabin and extra comfort seating products on our A330 aircraft, which are driving improvements in profitability and unit revenue growth.
During the year we expanded our operations and now have direct routes between Maui, Hawai'i and Portland, Oregon (January 2018), Kona, Hawai'i and Los Angeles, California (March 2018), Lihue, Hawai'i and Los Angeles, California (May 2018), Honolulu, Hawai'i and Long Beach, California (May 2018), Maui, Hawai'i and San Diego, California (June 2018), and Lihue, Hawai'i and Oakland, California (July 2018 - expansion to daily service). In October 2018, we suspended our thrice-weekly nonstop service between Honolulu, Hawai'i and Beijing, China. In September 2018, we announced our new direct route between Honolulu, Hawai'i and Boston, Massachusetts, which will commence in April 2019. During the first quarter of 2019, we will have retired our last Boeing 767-300 aircraft, completing the transition to our A321 aircraft, allowing for optimization of our products and better capacity management.
Other Operating Revenue
Other operating revenue increased by $46.3 million , or 24.6% , in 2018 , as compared to 2017 , primarily due to an increase in loyalty program revenue of $31.8 million related to brand usage associated with our co-brand credit card partnership with Barclays, which was amended in the first quarter of 2018. Refer to Note 1 in the consolidated financial statements for additional information. Cargo revenue was up $9.0 million as a result of increased freight volumes and the introduction of our inter-island cargo freighter operation in the fourth quarter of 2018.
Operating Expenses
During the year ended December 31, 2018 , total operating expense increased $311.9 million or 14.1% to $2.5 billion as compared to the same period in 2017. The largest components of our operating expenses are wages and benefits provided to our

The increase in fuel expense from 2017 to 2018 is due to an increase in average fuel price per gallon and increased fuel consumption driven by capacity growth.
We believe economic fuel expense is the best measure of the effect of fuel prices on our business as it most closely approximates the net cash outflow associated with the purchase of fuel for our operations and is consistent with how management manages our business and assesses our operating performance. We define economic fuel expense as GAAP fuel expense plus (gains)/losses realized through actual cash (receipts)/payments received from or paid to hedge counterparties for fuel hedge derivative contracts settled in the period inclusive of costs related to hedging premiums.
Economic fuel expense is calculated as follows:

See Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk , for additional discussion of our jet fuel costs and related derivative program.
Wages and benefits
Wages and benefits expense increased by $51.7 million , or 8.2% , in 2018 , as compared to 2017 , primarily driven by increased overall headcount (up 8.8% in 2018 ). The higher wages and benefits expenses also reflected an increase in cost incurred for training to prepare for the induction of our A321neo fleet which entered service during 2018.
Maintenance materials and repairs
Maintenance materials and repairs increased $20.2 million , or 9.2% , in 2018, as compared to 2017. On a per ASM basis, maintenance, materials, and repairs expense increased 2.9% as compared to the prior year, primarily due to an increase in the number of airframe and engine maintenance events, higher cost of materials for aging aircraft, and an increase in rates on our power by hour contract.
Aircraft and passenger servicing
Aircraft and passenger servicing expenses increased $12.9 million , or 8.9% , in 2018 , as compared to 2017 , resulting from higher food and beverage expenses attributed to increased passenger counts (up 2.9% in 2018) and an increase in ground handling services reflective of increased operations in domestic and international markets.
Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation and amortization increased $26.6 million , or 23.5% , in 2018, as compared to 2017 primarily due to additions of new aircraft, aircraft improvements and increases in information technology infrastructure and development projects.
Purchased services
Purchased services expense increased by $20.9 million , or 18.8% , in 2018 , as compared to 2017 . The increase was primarily attributed to an increase in third party expenses including, outsourced web and IT fees and services associated with our increased cargo operations.
Contract terminations expense
During the year ended December 31, 2018 , we terminated two contracts which incurred a total of $35.3 million in expense. The transactions are described below:

In January 2018, we entered into a transaction with a lessor to early terminate three Boeing 767-300 aircraft leases and concurrently entered into a forward sale agreement for the same three Boeing 767-300 aircraft, including two Pratt & Whitney 4060 engines for each aircraft. These aircraft were previously accounted for as operating leases. In order to exit the lease and purchase the aircraft, we agreed to pay a total of $67.1 million (net of all deposits) of which a portion was expensed immediately and recognized as a contract termination fee. The expensed amount represents the total purchase price amount over fair value of the aircraft purchased as of the date of the transaction.

In February 2018, we exercised our right to terminate the aircraft purchase agreement with Airbus for six Airbus A330-800neo aircraft and the purchase rights for an additional six Airbus A330-800neo aircraft. To terminate the purchase agreement, we were obligated to repay Airbus for concessions received relating to a prior firm order, training credits, as well as forfeit the pre-delivery progress payments made towards the flight equipment. We recorded a contract terminations expense to reflect the termination penalty within our consolidated statements of operations.
Nonoperating expense, net
Net nonoperating expense decreased by $60.0 million in 2018 , as compared to 2017 , primarily as a result of a $35.2 million loss on plan termination and a $10.4 million partial settlement and curtailment loss, which were recorded in Other nonoperating special items in 2017. Additionally, Other components of net periodic benefit costs decreased by approximately $15.9 million during the year ended December 31, 2018 , as compared to the same period in 2017, primarily as a result of strategic initiatives and favorable market trends.
Income taxes
Our effective tax rate was 22.6% for 2018, compared with 15.4% for 2017. In December 2017, Congress enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Act), which resulted in a reduction of the federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% and the re-measurement of our deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2017. We recorded a tax benefit of $83.0 million

Table of Contents

during 2017 to record the impact of the Tax Act. During the year ended December 31, 2018 , we completed our accounting for the effects of the Tax Act and recorded an additional tax benefit of $9.3 million , the majority of which related to pension contributions made in 2018 for the 2017 plan year deductible at the higher 2017 tax rate. Refer to Note 10 in the consolidated financial statements for additional discussion.
2017 vs. 2016
Passenger Revenue
Passenger revenue was $2.49 billion and $2.27 billion for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Details of these changes are described in the table below:

Domestic revenue increased $86.1 million on yield improvement of 5.3% . North America routes drove the yield improvement as a result of strong demand and the relatively steady industry capacity environment in 2017 , which resulted in higher unit prices.
International revenue increased $129.0 million in 2017 , as compared to 2016 . A 19.2% increase in RPM along with yield improvement of 6.3% drove the strong revenue performance. The increase in RPM flown is attributed to the expansion of Hawai'i to Japan service in 2016 , which was fully realized in 2017 and includes; the expansion of service between Honolulu and Tokyo/Narita (July 2016 start), Kona and Tokyo/Haneda (December 2016 start), and expansion of existing Honolulu and Tokyo/Haneda, Japan service (December 2016 start).
Other Operating Revenue
Other operating revenue increased by $27.6 million , or 17.2% , in 2017 , as compared to 2016 , due to an increase in cargo revenue of $19.7 million, or 26.7%, attributable to increased freight volumes. The increase was also due to a $2.7 million increase in contract services revenue (e.g. ground handling). Other components within our Other operating revenue line include, but are not limited to, loyalty brand and marketing revenue, and other miscellaneous items.

Wages and benefits
Wages and benefits expense increased by $97.7 million , or 18.3% , in 2017 , as compared to 2016 , of which approximately $43.4 million was due to the Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA) contract amendment effective April 1, 2017.  In addition, employee benefits expenses (including health insurance) increased by $18.4 million for the year. The higher wages and benefits expenses also reflected an increase in the number of flight crew and training to prepare for the induction of our A321neo fleet, in addition

31

Table of Contents

to an overall increase in employee headcount by approximately 7.4% as compared to December 31, 2016, which includes flight attendants, machinists, and non-contract employees.
Aircraft rent
Aircraft rent increased by $13.2 million , or 10.6% , in 2017 , as compared to 2016 , due to a sale leaseback transaction for three Boeing 767-300 aircraft in April 2017 and the addition of two leased Boeing 717-200 aircraft in November 2016.
Aircraft and passenger servicing
Aircraft and passenger servicing expenses increased $15.0 million , or 11.5% , in 2017 , as compared to 2016 , resulting directly from higher passenger counts, specifically a 21.5% increase in international passengers flown which generally have a higher associated food and handling cost per passenger. This increase resulted in an overall increase of $5.4 million in food and beverage costs and $5.6 million in ground handling costs.
Purchased services
Purchased services expense increased by $14.6 million , or 15.2% , in 2017 , as compared to 2016 , due to an increase of $8.6 million in various third party expenses including: outsourced web and IT fees and outsourced labor resources associated with the maintenance hangar project.
Special items
Special items expense decreased by $85.7 million, or 78.5%, in 2017, as compared to 2016. See Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements for further discussion surrounding both 2017 and 2016 Special items.
Other expenses
Other expenses increased by $17.0 million , or 13.4% , in 2017 , as compared to 2016 , due to an increase of $3.8 million in hotel and personnel related expenses for our crew members (e.g. meals and entertainment), as well as a $4.1 million increase in other supplies expenses. Other components of our Other expense line item include, but are not limited to, communication costs, professional and technical fees, insurance costs, legal fees, and other miscellaneous expenses.
Nonoperating expense, net
Net nonoperating expense increased by $36.9 million in 2017 , as compared to 2016 , due to a $35.2 million loss on plan termination and a $10.4 million partial settlement and curtailment loss, which were recorded in Other nonoperating special items in 2017. These expenses were partially offset by an $11.7 million fluctuation in fuel hedge gains during the same period.
In 2016, the Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. Pension Plan for Salaried Employees (the Salaried Plan) was consolidated into the Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. Pension Plan for Employees Represented by the International Association of Machinists (IAM), which established the Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. Salaried & IAM Merged Pension Plan (the Merged Plan). At that time, the net liabilities of the Salaried Plan were transferred to the Merged Plan. In August 2017, we completed the termination of the Merged Plan by transferring the assets and liabilities to a third-party insurance company. The Merged Plan was fully funded and we recognized a one-time Other nonoperating special item expense of $35.2 million as an Other nonoperating special item in our Consolidated Statement of Operations.
In 2017, we recognized a one-time Other nonoperating special item expense of $10.4 million related to the settlement of a portion of our pilots' other post-retirement medical plan liability, pursuant to which the parties agreed to eliminate the post-65 post-retirement medical benefit for all active pilots and to replace the benefit with a health retirement account (HRA) managed by ALPA. This transaction represented a curtailment and partial settlement of the pilots' other post-retirement benefit plan. In August 2017, we made a one-time cash payment of approximately $101.9 million to fund the HRA and settle the post-65 post-retirement medical plan obligation. The cash contributed was distributed to the trust funding the individual health retirement notional accounts of the participants.
Income Tax Expense
Our effective tax rate was 15.4% percent for 2017, compared with 38.0% for 2016. The decrease in rate was driven by a $83.0 million reduction in provision for income taxes related to the Tax Act enacted in December 31, 2017, which resulted in re-measurement of our deferred tax assets and liabilities at the new federal corporate tax rate of 21.0% .
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of liquidity are:

32

Table of Contents

Our existing cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $500.8 million , and our expected cash from operations;
Our 21 unencumbered aircraft in our aircraft fleet as of December 31, 2018 , that could be financed, if necessary; and
Our $235.0 million revolving credit facility with no outstanding borrowing. Information about this facility can be found in Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements.
At December 31, 2018 , we had $709.8 million of debt and capital lease obligations, including $101.1 million classified as a current liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2018 , our current liabilities exceeded our current assets by approximately $301.0 million . However, approximately $603.7 million of our current liabilities are related to our advanced ticket sales and frequent flyer deferred revenue, both of which largely represent revenue to be recognized for travel within the next 12 months and not actual cash outlays. The deficit in working capital does not have an adverse impact to our cash flows, liquidity, or operations.
Cash Flows
Net cash provided by operating activities was $508.5 million , $331.1 million , and $437.0 million in 2018 , 2017 , and 2016 , respectively. Operating cash flows are primarily derived from providing air transportation to customers. The vast majority of tickets are purchased in advance of when travel is provided, and in some cases, several months before the anticipated travel date. Operating cash outflows are related to the recurring expenses of the airline operations. The operating cash flows for 2018, 2017, and 2016 were impacted primarily by our results of operations, adjusted for non-cash items as well as changes in the Air traffic liability, Accounts receivables and Other asset and liabilities, net. Net cash provided by operating activities is primarily used to finance capital expenditures, including pre-delivery payments for future aircraft deliveries, repayment of debt and capital lease obligations, fund stock repurchases, pay dividends, and provide working capital.
Cash used in investing activities was $316.5 million , $294.7 million , and $154.1 million for 2018 , 2017 , and 2016 , respectively. Investing activities in 2018, 2017, and 2016 included Capital expenditures, primarily related to aircraft and other equipment, and the purchases and sales of short-term investments. During 2018, Capital expenditures were $486.8 million , the majority of which were payments for new A321 aircraft delivered to us. This compared with $341.5 million and $178.8 million in Capital expenditures during 2017 and 2016, respectively. We currently estimate our 2019 capital expenditures will range between approximately $380 million to $430 million . During 2018, our purchases and sales of short-term investments resulted in net cash inflow of $36.6 million . During 2017 and 2016, purchases and sales of short-term investments resulted in net cash outflows of $12.9 million and $7.1 million , respectively. During 2018, we received proceeds of $46.7 million as a result of the sale of three Boeing 767-300 aircraft and $87.0 million as a result of the completion of the sale and subsequent leaseback of an A330-200 aircraft accounted for as an operating lease.
Net cash used in financing activities was $115.4 million , $175.5 million , and $238.5 million for 2018 and 2017 , and 2016 , respectively. During 2018, we repaid $68.2 million in debt and capital lease obligations, compared with $61.5 million and $214.0 million during 2017 and 2016, respectively. During 2018, we entered into two Japanese Yen denominated notes, totaling $86.5 million , collateralized by the aircraft financed. See Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements for further information. We repurchased $102.5 million of our outstanding common stock through authorized share repurchases during 2018, compared with repurchases of $100.0 million and $13.8 million in 2017 and 2016 , respectively. We also paid $24.2 million in dividends to Shareholders during 2018, compared with $6.3 million in 2017. Although we currently intend to continue paying dividends on a quarterly basis for the foreseeable future, our Board of Directors may change the timing, amount, and payment of dividends on the basis of the results of operations, financial condition, cash requirements, future prospects, and other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors.
Credit Card Holdbacks
Under our bank-issued credit card processing agreements, certain proceeds from advance ticket sales may be held back to serve as collateral to cover any possible chargebacks or other disputed charges that may occur. These holdbacks, are reported as restricted cash in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2018 , there were no holdbacks held with our credit card processors.
In the event of a material adverse change in our business, the holdback could increase to an amount up to 100% of the applicable credit card activity for all unflown tickets, which would also result in an increase in the required level of restricted cash. If we are unable to obtain a waiver of, or otherwise mitigate the increase in the restriction of cash, it could have a material adverse impact on our operations.
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plan Funding

33

Table of Contents

As of December 31, 2018 , the excess of the projected benefit obligations over the fair value of plan assets was approximately $186.3 million . We voluntarily contributed $50.0 million , $30.2 million , and $57.8 million to our defined benefit pension plans (excluding one-time settlement payments) and disability plan during 2018 , 2017 , and 2016 , respectively. Future funding requirements for our defined benefit and other postretirement plans are dependent upon many factors such as interest rates, funded status, applicable regulatory requirements, and the level and timing of asset returns. We have made significant contributions (above the minimum required) to our defined benefit pension and disability plans in the past few years. In 2019 , our minimum required contribution has been estimated to be approximately $7.8 million.
Stock Repurchase Program and Dividends
During the year ended December 31, 2018 , we used $102.5 million to repurchase 2.8 million shares of our common stock, completing our November 2017 repurchase authorization. In November 2018, our Board of Directors approved a new stock repurchase program pursuant to which we may repurchase up to $100 million of our outstanding common stock over a two-year period through December 2020. The stock repurchase program is subject to further modification or termination at any time.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
An off-balance sheet arrangement is any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement involving an unconsolidated entity under which a company has (i) made guarantees, (ii) retained a contingent interest in transferred assets, (iii) an obligation under derivative instruments classified as equity or (iv) any obligation arising out of a material variable interest in an unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support to the company, or that engages in leasing, hedging or research and development arrangements with the company. We have no arrangements of the types described in the first three categories that we believe may have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations. We do have obligations arising out of variable interests in unconsolidated entities related to certain aircraft leases. To the extent our leases and related guarantees are with a separate legal entity other than a governmental entity, we are not the primary beneficiary because the lease terms are consistent with market terms at the inception of the lease, and the lease does not include a residual value guarantee, fixed price purchase option, or similar feature.

Amounts reflect capital lease obligations for one Airbus A330-200 aircraft, two Airbus A321-200 aircraft, two Boeing 717-200 aircraft, one Airbus A330 flight simulator, aircraft and IT related equipment, and the building component of the cargo and maintenance hangar (within the capital commitments section).

(2)
Amounts reflect leases for eleven Airbus A330-200 aircraft, three Boeing 767-300 aircraft which end during the first quarter of 2019, and three Boeing 717-200 aircraft as of December 31, 2018 .

(3)
Amounts include our firm commitments for aircraft and aircraft related equipment. See Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements for a discussion of our purchase commitments.

(4)
Amounts include commitments for services provided by third-parties for aircraft maintenance for our fleet, capacity purchases, IT, and reservations. Total contractual obligations do not include long-term contracts where the commitment is variable in nature (with no minimum guarantee), such as aircraft maintenance deposits due under operating leases and fees due under certain other agreements such as aircraft maintenance power-by-the-hour, computer reservation systems and credit card processing agreements, or when the agreements contain short-term cancellation provisions.

(5)
Amounts include our estimated contributions to our pension plans (based on actuarially determined estimates) and our pilots' disability plan. Amounts are subject to change based on numerous factors, including interest rate levels, the amount and timing of asset returns and the impact of future legislation. We are currently unable to estimate the projected contributions beyond 2025. See "Critical Accounting Policies" below for a discussion of our current year assumption regarding our employee benefit plans.

Committed expenditures for these aircraft, engines, and related flight equipment are approximately $330 million in 2019 , $162 million in 2020 , $303 million in 2021 , $431 million in 2022 , $237 million in 2023 , and $478 million thereafter.
In order to complete the purchase of these aircraft and fund related costs, we may need to secure acceptable financing. We have backstop financing available from aircraft and engine manufacturers, subject to certain customary conditions. Financing may be necessary to satisfy our capital commitments for firm order aircraft and other related capital expenditures. We can provide no assurance that any financing not already in place for aircraft and spare engine deliveries will be available to us on acceptable terms when necessary or at all.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We believe the disclosure of non-GAAP financial measures is useful information to readers of our financial statements because:
We believe it is the basis by which we are evaluated by industry analysts and investors;
These measures are often used in management and board of directors' decision making analysis;
It improves a reader's ability to compare our results to those of other airlines; and
It is consistent with how we present information in our quarterly earnings press releases.
See table below for reconciliation between GAAP consolidated net income to adjusted consolidated net income, including per share amounts (in thousands unless otherwise indicated). The adjustments are described below:
As a result of the Tax Act, we recognized a one-time benefit of $83.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2017 from the estimated impact of the revaluation of deferred tax assets and liabilities. This tax benefit is being excluded from our

results as a Special item. We excluded the Tax Act effect (on the financial statements) in order to allow investors to better analyze our core results and allow the information to be presented on a comparative basis to the prior year.
Changes in fair value of derivative contracts, net of tax, are based on market prices for open contracts as of the end of the reporting period. This adjustment includes the unrealized gains and losses on fuel and interest rate derivatives (not designated as hedges) that will settle in future periods and the reversal of prior period unrealized amounts. Excluding the impact of these derivative adjustments allows investors to analyze our core operational performance and compare our results to other airlines in the periods presented below.
Unrealized loss (gain) on foreign debt is based on fluctuations in foreign exchanges rates related to foreign-denominated debt agreements we executed in 2018. We believe that excluding the impact of these amounts helps investors analyze our operational performance and compare our results to other airlines in the periods presented below.
Loss on extinguishment of debt, net of tax, is excluded to allow investors to analyze our core operational performance and compare our results to other airlines in the periods presented below.
Loss (gain) on sale of aircraft is the result of adjustments to the final purchase price for three of our Boeing 767-300 aircraft included in a forward sale agreement we entered into in January 2018 and described below. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2018, we recorded a loss of $0.3 million .
2016 Special Items
An impairment analysis and ultimate charge was triggered by the decision in the fourth quarter of 2016 to exit our Boeing 767-300 fleet in 2018. We estimated the fair value of the owned Boeing 767-300 fleet assets using third party pricing information and quotes from potential buyers, which resulted in a $49.4 million impairment charge.
In 2016, we accrued $34.0 million associated with the tentative agreement with ALPA related to past service (prior to January 1, 2017) and also elected to pay a $4.8 million profit sharing bonus payment to other labor groups related to prior period service.
In connection with the decision to exit the Boeing 767-300 fleet, we negotiated a termination of our Boeing 767-300 maintenance agreement and recorded a $21.0 million charge related to the amount paid to terminate the contract.
2017 Special Items
In August 2017, we terminated the Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. Salaried & IAM Merged Pension Plan (the Merged Plan) and settled a portion of our pilots' other post-retirement medical plan liability. In connection with the reduction of these liabilities we recorded one-time Other nonoperating special charges of $35.2 million related to the Merged Plan termination and $10.4 million related to the other post-retirement (OPEB) medical plan partial settlement.

In April 2017, we executed a sale leaseback transaction with an independent third party for three Boeing 767-300 aircraft. The lease terms for the three aircraft commenced in April 2017 and end between November 2018 and January 2019. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2017, we recorded a loss on sale of aircraft of $4.8 million.

In February 2017, we reached a tentative agreement with ALPA, covering our pilots. In March 2017, we received notice from ALPA that the agreement was ratified by ALPA's members.  The agreement became effective April 1, 2017 and has a term of 63 months.  The agreement includes, among other various benefits, a pay adjustment and ratification bonus computed based on previous service. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2017, we expensed $18.7 million primarily related to a one-time payment to reduce our future 401K employer contribution for certain pilot groups, which is not recoverable once paid.

2018 Contract Terminations Expense
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2018, we terminated two contracts which incurred a total of $35.3 million in contract terminations expense. The transactions are described below:

In February 2018, we exercised our right to terminate our aircraft purchase agreement with Airbus for six Airbus A330-800neo aircraft and the purchase rights for an additional six Airbus A330-800neo aircraft. To terminate the purchase agreement, we were obligated to repay Airbus for concessions received relating to a prior firm order, training credits, as well as forfeit the pre-delivery progress payments made towards the flight equipment. We recorded a contract terminations expense to reflect the termination penalty in our consolidated statements of operations.

Table of Contents

In January 2018, we entered into a transaction with our lessor to early terminate and purchase three Boeing 767-300 aircraft leases and concurrently entered into a forward sale agreement for the same three Boeing 767-300 aircraft, including two Pratt & Whitney 4060 engines for each aircraft. These aircraft were previously accounted for as operating leases. In order to exit the lease and purchase the aircraft, we agreed to pay a total of $67.1 million (net of all deposits) of which a portion was expensed immediately and recognized as a contract termination fee. The expensed amount represents the total purchase price amount over fair value of the aircraft purchased as of the date of the transaction.

We believe that excluding such special items helps investors analyze our operational performance and compare our results to other airlines in the periods presented below.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 
Critical accounting policies and estimates are defined as those accounting policies and accounting estimates that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, and that potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. Our most critical accounting policies and estimates are described below. See the summary of significant accounting policies included in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements for additional discussion of the application of these estimates and other accounting policies.
Revenue Recognition
We adopted the new revenue standard (ASC 606) as of January 1, 2018, utilizing the full retrospective option. The adoption of the standard has had a significant impact on our financial statements and our critical accounting policies. See Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information including quantification of the overall impact of adoption.

Passenger revenue. We record passenger ticket sales and tickets sold by other airlines for use on Hawaiian as passenger revenue when the transportation is provided or upon scheduled flight for tickets expected to expire unused. The value of unused passenger tickets is included in current liabilities as Air Traffic Liability. Non-refundable tickets generally expire 13 months from the date of flight. We record an estimate of breakage revenue on the scheduled flight date for tickets that will expire unused. These estimates are based on the evaluation of actual historical results and forecasted trends. Ticket change fees are recorded in air traffic liability and recognized when the related transportation is provided.
Frequent flyer revenue. HawaiianMiles, Hawaiian's frequent flyer travel award program, provides a variety of awards to program members based on accumulated mileage. ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and created Accounting Standards Codification (ASC 606) requires us to account for miles earned by passengers in the HawaiianMiles program through flight activity as a component of the passenger revenue ticket transaction at the estimated selling price of the miles. Ticket consideration received is allocated between the performance obligations, primarily travel and miles earned by passengers. The allocated value of the miles is deferred until the free travel or other award is used by the passenger, at which time it is included in passenger revenue. The value of the ticket used in the determination of the estimated selling price is based on the historical value of equivalent flights to those provided for loyalty awards and the related miles redeemed to obtain that award adjusted for breakage or fulfillment. The equivalent ticket value (ETV) includes a fulfillment discount (breakage) to reflect the value of the award ticket over the number of miles that, based on historical experience, will be needed to obtain the award. On a quarterly basis, we calculate the ETV by analyzing the fares of similar tickets for the prior 12 months, considering cabin class and geographic region.

We also sell mileage credits to companies participating in our frequent flyer program. These contracts generally include multiple performance obligations, including the transportation that will ultimately be provided when the mileage credits are redeemed and marketing and brand related activities.

During the first quarter of 2018, we amended our partnership with Barclaycard US, Hawaiian's co-branded credit card partner. Management determined that the amendment should be accounted for as a termination of the existing contract and the creation of a new contract under ASC 606 and the relative selling price was determined for each performance obligation of the new agreement. The new agreement continues through 2024 and includes improved economics and enhanced product offerings for our Barclay's co-branded cardholders. The amended agreement did not change, and includes the following performance obligations; (i) transportation that will ultimately be provided when mileage credits are redeemed (transportation), (ii) the Hawaiian Airlines brand and access to its members lists (collectively, brand performance), (iii) marketing, and (iv) airline benefits to cardholders, including discounts and anniversary travel benefits, baggage waivers and inflight purchase credits. We determined the relative fair value of each performance obligation by estimating the selling prices of the deliverables by considering discounted cash flows using multiple inputs and assumptions, including: (1) the expected number of miles to be awarded and redeemed; (2) the estimated weighted average equivalent ticket value, adjusted by a fulfillment discount; (3) the estimated total annual cardholder spend; (4) an estimated royalty rate for the Hawaiian portfolio; and (5) the expected use of each of the airline benefits. The overall consideration received is allocated to the performance obligations based on their relative selling prices.

The transportation performance obligation is deferred and recognized as passenger revenue when the transportation is provided. The value to the financial institution is provided each time a new cardholder chooses the Hawaiian branded credit card and each time a cardholder chooses to use the co-branded credit card. Therefore, we recognize revenue for the brand performance obligation as members use their co-brand credit card and the resulting mileage credits are issued to them, which best correlates with our performance toward satisfying the obligation.

Accounting for frequent flyer revenue involves the use of various techniques to estimate revenue. To determine the total estimated transaction price, we forecast future credit card activity based on historical data. The relative selling price is determined using management’s estimated standalone selling price of each performance obligation. The objective of using the estimated selling price based methodology is to determine the price at which we would transact a sale if the product or service were sold on a standalone basis. Accordingly, we determine our best estimate of selling price by considering multiple inputs and methods including, but not limited to, discounted cash flows, brand value, number of miles awarded and number of miles redeemed. We estimate the selling price of miles using an ETV adjusted for a fulfillment discount as described above.

Miles expire after 18 months of member account inactivity. We review our breakage estimates annually based upon the latest available information regarding redemption and expiration patterns (e.g., credit card and non-credit card holders). Our estimate of the expected expiration of miles requires significant management judgment. Current and future changes to expiration assumptions or to the expiration policy, or to program rules and program could affect the estimated value of a mile.

Pension and Other Postretirement and Postemployment Benefits
The calculation of pension and other postretirement and postemployment benefit expenses and its corresponding liabilities require the use of significant assumptions, including the assumed discount rate, the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets, expected mortality rates of the plan participants, and the expected health care cost trend rate. Changes in these assumptions will impact the expense and liability amounts, and future actual experience may differ from these assumptions.
The significant assumptions as of December 31, 2018 are as follows:
Pension:

Expected return on plan assets

^
Expected return on plan assets used to determine the net periodic benefit expense for 2019 is 6.91% for the pension plans and 4.90% for the disability plan.
The expected long-term rate of return assumption is developed by evaluating input from the trustee managing the plans' assets, including the trustee's review of asset class return expectations by several consultants and economists, as well as long-term inflation assumptions. Our expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is based on a target allocation of assets, which is based on our goal of earning the highest rate of return while maintaining risk at acceptable levels. The Retirement Plan for Pilots of Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. and the Pilot's Voluntary Employee Beneficiary Association Disability and Survivor's Benefit Plan strive to have assets sufficiently diversified so that adverse or unexpected results from any one security class will not have an unduly detrimental impact on the entire portfolio. We believe that our long-term asset allocation on average will approximate the targeted allocation. We periodically review our actual asset allocation and rebalance the pension plan's investments to our targeted allocation when considered appropriate. Pension expense increases as the expected rate of return on plan assets decreases. Lowering the expected long-term rate of return by 100 basis points will have the following effects on our estimated 2019 pension and disability benefit expense recorded in wages and benefits and nonoperating expense:
 
100 Basis Point Decrease
 
(in millions)
Increase in estimated 2019 pension expense
$
3.0

Increase in estimated 2019 disability benefit expense

We determine the appropriate discount rate for each of our plans based on current rates on high quality corporate bonds that would generate the cash flow necessary to pay plan benefits when due. The pension and other postretirement benefit liabilities and future expense both increase as the discount rate is reduced. Lowering the discount rate by 100 basis points would have the following effects:

In 2017, we recognized a one-time Other nonoperating special item expense of $10.4 million related to the settlement of a portion of our pilots' other post-retirement medical plan liability, pursuant to which the parties agreed to eliminate the post-65 post-retirement medical benefit for all active pilots and to replace the benefit with a health retirement account (HRA) managed by ALPA. We evaluated the accounting for the transaction in accordance with ASC 715-60 Compensation-Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans-Other Postretirement, and determined that it represented a curtailment and partial settlement of the pilots' other post-retirement benefit plan.
Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets used in operations, consisting principally of property and equipment. Depreciable life is determined through economic analysis, such as reviewing existing fleet plans, obtaining appraisals and comparing estimated lives to other airlines that operate similar fleets. Residual values are estimated based on historical experience and are based on when the aircraft are acquired and typically reflect asset values that have not reached the end of their physical life.
When testing for impairment management considers market trends, the expected useful lives of the assets, changes in economic conditions, recent transactions involving sales of similar assets and, if necessary, estimates of future undiscounted cash flows. To determine whether impairment exists for aircraft used in operations, assets are grouped at the fleet-type level (the lowest level for which there are identifiable cash flows) and future cash flows are estimated based on projections of capacity, passenger mile yield, fuel costs, labor costs and other relevant factors. If, at any time, management determines the net carrying value of an asset is not recoverable, the amount is reduced to its fair value during the period in which such determination is made. Any changes in the estimated useful lives of these assets will be accounted for prospectively.
The impairment analysis and ultimate charge in 2016 was triggered by the decision in the fourth quarter of 2016 to exit the Boeing 767-300 fleet in 2018. The early exit of the Boeing 767-300 fleet was made possible by our decision to acquire one Airbus A330 (delivered in 2017), lease two additional Airbus A321s (to be delivered in 2018 in addition to our existing aircraft orders), and our ability to early terminate our long-term power-by-the-hour maintenance contract for the Boeing 767-300 fleet. This fleet change allows us to streamline our fleet, simplify our operations, and reduce our cost structure in the future. In order to assess whether there was an impairment of the Boeing 767-300 asset group, we compared the projected undiscounted cash flows of the fleet to the book value of the assets and determined the book value was in excess of the undiscounted cash flows. We estimated the fair value of our owned Boeing 767-300 fleet assets using third party pricing information and quotes from potential buyers of our owned aircraft, which resulted in a $49.4 million impairment charge. Our determination of fair value considered attributes specific to our Boeing 767-300 fleet and aircraft condition (e.g. age, maintenance requirements, cycles, etc.). The Boeing 767-300 asset group consisted of both owned and leased (at the time of the assessment) aircraft.

Income Taxes

Table of Contents

The Tax Act, enacted in December 2017, significantly changed existing U.S. tax law and reduces the U.S. federal corporate tax from 35% to 21%. We recognized a one-time benefit of $83.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2017 from the impact of the revaluation of deferred tax assets and liabilities. During the year ended December 31, 2018 , we completed our accounting for the effects of the Tax Act and recorded an additional tax benefit of $9.3 million , primarily related to deductions for additional pension contributions made in 2018 for the 2017 Plan year.

ITEM 7A.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
We are subject to certain market risks, including commodity price risk (i.e. jet fuel prices) and foreign currency risk. We have market-sensitive instruments in the form of financial derivatives used to offset Hawaiian's exposure to jet fuel price increases, and financial hedge instruments used to hedge Hawaiian's exposure to foreign currency exchange risk. The adverse effects of potential changes in these market risks are discussed below.
The sensitivity analyses presented do not consider the effects that such adverse changes may have on overall economic activity nor do they consider additional actions we might undertake to mitigate our exposure to such changes. Actual results may differ.
Aircraft Fuel
Aircraft fuel costs constitute a significant portion of our operating expense. Fuel costs represented 24% of our operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2018 . Approximately 71% of our fuel is based on Singapore jet fuel prices, 26% is based on U.S. West Coast jet fuel prices, and 3% on other jet fuel prices. We periodically enter into derivative financial instruments to manage our exposure to changes in the price of jet fuel. As of December 31, 2018 , we hedged approximately 34% of our projected fuel requirements for 2019 . As of December 31, 2018 , the fair value of these fuel derivative agreements reflected a net asset of $1.6 million that is recorded as prepaid assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Based on gallons expected to be consumed in 2019 , for every one cent increase in the cost of a gallon of jet fuel, our annual fuel expense would increase by approximately $2.7 million .
We expect to continue our program of offsetting some of our exposure to future changes in the price of jet fuel with a combination of fixed forward pricing contracts, swaps, puts and other option-based structures.
We continue to believe that our fuel derivative program is an important part of our strategy to reduce our exposure to volatile fuel prices. We expect to continue to enter into these types of contracts prospectively, although significant changes in market conditions could affect our decisions. For more discussion, see Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements.
Interest Rates
We have exposure to market risk associated with changes in interest rates related to our pre-tax earnings and cash flows associated with our interest-bearing cash equivalent accounts and short-term investments. Based on the balances of our cash and cash equivalents, and short-term investments as of December 31, 2018 , a change in interest rates is unlikely to have a material impact on our results of operations.
Our variable-rate debt agreements include the Revolving Credit Facility and secured loan agreements, the terms of which are discussed in Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements. At December 31, 2018 , we had $720.3 million of fixed-rate debt including capital lease obligations, facility agreements for aircraft purchases, and the outstanding notes related to the aircraft purchase financing. As of December 31, 2018, we have no variable-rate debt. An increase of 100 basis points in average annual interest rates would have decreased the estimated fair value of our fixed-rate long-term debt by $6.9 million at December 31, 2018 .
Foreign Currency
We have exposure to market risk associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates because we generate sales, incur expenses, and have debt denominated and paid in foreign currencies, predominantly in Japanese Yen and to a lesser extent, the Australian Dollar.
To mitigate the exchange rate risk, we transact our international sales and expenditures in the same foreign currency, to the extent practical. Additionally, our Yen denominated debt serves as a natural hedge against the volatility of exchange rates against cash inflows. We also have an established foreign currency derivative program, where we periodically enter into foreign currency forward contracts. At December 31, 2018 , the fair value of our foreign currency forwards reflected a net asset of $3.2 million ( $2.9 million and $0.3 million recorded in Prepaid expenses and other (short-term) and Long-term prepayments and other (long-term), respectively) in the consolidated balance sheet.
Based on forecasted transactions in foreign currency, a 10% depreciation in the U.S. dollar, relative to the Japanese Yen and Australian Dollar, would result in a decrease in annual net income, net of the impact of foreign currency hedges, of approximately $21.9 million .

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2018, and the related notes and financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 15(a) (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company at December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2018, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) and our report dated February 13, 2019 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Adoption of ASU No. 2014-09

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company retrospectively changed its method of accounting for recognizing revenue as a result of the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), and the amendments in ASUs 2015-14, 2016-08, 2016-10 and 2016-12 effective January 1, 2016.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. (the Company, Holdings, we, us and our) and its direct wholly-owned subsidiary, Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. (Hawaiian), are incorporated in the State of Delaware. The Company's primary asset is its sole ownership of all issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Hawaiian.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including its principal subsidiary, Hawaiian, through which the Company conducts substantially all of its operations. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
The Company reclassified certain prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation. Unless otherwise noted, all amounts disclosed are stated before consideration of income taxes.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents consist of short-term, highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash consists of cash held as collateral by institutions that process our credit card transactions for advanced ticket sales.
Short Term Investments
Investments with original maturities of greater than three months and remaining maturities of less than one year are classified as short-term investments. Investments with maturities beyond one year may be classified as short-term based on their highly liquid nature and because such marketable securities represent the investment of cash that is available for current operations. All short-term investments, which consists of debt securities, are classified as available-for-sale, and realized gains and losses are recorded using the specific identification method. Changes in market value, excluding other-than-temporary impairments, are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
Spare Parts and Supplies
Spare parts and supplies are valued at average cost, and primarily consist of expendable parts for flight equipment and other supplies. An allowance for obsolescence of expendable parts is provided over the estimated useful lives of the related aircraft and engines for spare parts expected to be on hand at the date the aircraft are retired from service. These allowances are based on management's estimates and are subject to change.
Property, Equipment and Depreciation
Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis to their estimated residual values over the asset's estimated useful life. Depreciation begins when the asset is placed into service. Aircraft and related parts begin depreciating on the aircraft's first revenue flight.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

Estimated useful lives and residual values of property and equipment are as follows:
Boeing 717-200 aircraft and engines
7 - 11 years, 7 - 34% residual value
Boeing 767-300 aircraft and engines (1)
Through retirement in 2019
Airbus A330-200 aircraft and engines
25 years, 10% residual value
Airbus A321neo aircraft and engines
25 years, 10% residual value
ATR turboprop aircraft and engines
10 years, 15% residual value
Flight and ground equipment under capital lease
Shorter of lease term or useful life
Major rotable parts
Average lease term or useful life for related aircraft, 10% - 15% residual value
Improvements to leased flight equipment and the cargo maintenance hangar
Shorter of lease term or useful life
Facility leasehold improvements
Shorter of lease term, including assumed lease renewals when renewal is economically compelled at key airports, or useful life
Furniture, fixtures and other equipment
3 - 7 years, no residual value
Capitalized software
3 - 7 years, no residual value
(1) The Company will retire its Boeing 767-300 aircraft and flight equipment in the first quarter of 2019.
Additions and modifications that significantly enhance the operating performance and/or extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized and depreciated over the lesser of the remaining useful life of the asset or the remaining lease term, as applicable. Expenditures that do not improve or extend asset lives are charged to expense as incurred. Pre-delivery deposits are capitalized when paid.
Aircraft under capital leases are recorded at an amount equal to the present value of minimum lease payments utilizing the Company's incremental borrowing rate at lease inception and amortized on a straight-line basis over the lesser of the remaining useful life of the aircraft or the lease term. The amortization is recorded in depreciation and amortization expense on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Accumulated amortization of aircraft and other capital leases was $90.5 million and $70.9 million as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively.
The Company capitalizes certain costs related to the acquisition and development of computer software and amortizes these costs using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the software. The net book value of computer software, which is included in Other property and equipment on the consolidated balance sheets, was $27.9 million and $34.6 million at December 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. The value of construction in progress, primarily consisting of aircraft in 2018 and aircraft facilities in 2017 , which is included in property and equipment on the consolidated balance sheets, was $47.3 million and $135.3 million as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Amortization expense related to computer software was $14.6 million , $12.3 million and $9.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 , and 2016 respectively.
Aircraft Maintenance and Repair Costs
Maintenance and repair costs for owned and leased flight equipment, including the overhaul of aircraft components, are charged to operating expenses as incurred. Engine overhaul costs covered by power-by-the-hour arrangements are paid and expensed as incurred or expensed on a straight-line basis and are based on the amount of hours flown per contract. Under the terms of these power-by-the-hour agreements, the Company pays a set dollar amount per engine hour flown on a monthly basis and the third-party vendor assumes the obligation to repair the engines at no additional cost, subject to certain specified exclusions. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had approximately $95.0 million and $109.3 million , respectively in prepayments to one of its power-by-the-hour vendors, which is recoverable over the next four years .
Additionally, although the Company's aircraft lease agreements specifically provide that it is responsible for maintenance of the leased aircraft, the Company pays maintenance reserves to the aircraft lessors that are applied toward the cost of future maintenance events. These reserves are calculated based on a performance measure, such as flight hours, and are available for reimbursement to the Company upon the completion of the maintenance of the leased aircraft. However, reimbursements are limited to the available reserves associated with the specific maintenance activity for which the Company requests reimbursement.
Under certain aircraft lease agreements, the lessor is entitled to retain excess amounts on deposit at the expiration of the lease, if any; whereas at the expiration of certain other existing aircraft lease agreements any such excess amounts are returned to the

52

Table of Contents
Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

Company, provided that it has fulfilled all of its obligations under the lease agreements. The maintenance reserves paid under the lease agreements do not transfer either the obligation to maintain the aircraft or the cost risk associated with the maintenance activities to the aircraft lessor. In addition, the Company maintains the right to select any third-party maintenance provider.
Maintenance reserve payments that are expected to be recovered from lessors are recorded as deposits in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as an asset until it is less than probable that any portion of the deposit is recoverable. In addition, payments of maintenance reserves that are not substantially and contractually related to the maintenance of the leased assets are expensed as incurred. Any costs that are substantially and contractually unrelated to the maintenance of the leased asset are considered to be unrecoverable. In order to properly account for the costs that are related to the maintenance of the leased asset, the Company bifurcates its maintenance reserves into two groups and expenses the proportionate share that is expected to be unrecoverable.
Goodwill and Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets
Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized. We apply a fair value-based impairment test to the carrying value of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets on an annual basis and, if certain events or circumstances indicate that an impairment loss may have been incurred, on an interim basis. We assess the value of our goodwill and indefinite-lived assets under either a qualitative or quantitative approach.
Goodwill. When the Company evaluates goodwill for impairment using a quantitative approach, it estimates the fair value of the reporting unit by considering the market capitalization. If the reporting unit's fair value exceeds its carrying value, no further testing is required. If, however, the reporting unit's carrying value exceeds its fair value, the Company then determines the amount of the impairment charge, if any. The Company recognizes an impairment charge if the carrying value of the reporting unit's goodwill exceeds its estimated fair value.
Intangible Assets. The Company assesses its indefinite-lived assets under a qualitative approach. The Company analyzes market factors to determine if events and circumstances have affected the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets. If the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the asset value may be impaired, it then uses the quantitative approach to assess the asset's fair value and the amount of the impairment. The Company performs the quantitative impairment test for indefinite-lived intangible assets by comparing the asset's fair value to its carrying value.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Finite-lived Intangible Assets
Long-lived assets used in operations, consisting principally of property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets, are tested for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate, in management's judgment, that the assets might be impaired and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than their carrying amount. When testing for impairment management considers market trends, the expected useful lives of the assets, changes in economic conditions, recent transactions involving sales of similar assets and, if necessary, estimates of future undiscounted cash flows. To determine whether impairment exists for aircraft used in operations, assets are grouped at the fleet-type level (the lowest level for which there are identifiable cash flows) and future cash flows are estimated based on projections of capacity, passenger mile yield, fuel costs, labor costs and other relevant factors. If, at any time, management determines the net carrying value of an asset is not recoverable, the amount is reduced to its fair value during the period in which such determination is made. Any changes in the estimated useful lives of these assets will be accounted for prospectively. In 2016, a $49.4 million impairment charge was recorded as the Company determined that the Boeing 767-300 fleet and related assets were impaired. See Note 11 for further details.
Operating Leases
The Company leases aircraft, engines, airport terminal facilities, office space, and other equipment under operating leases. Some of these lease agreements include escalation clauses and renewal options. For scheduled rent escalation clauses during the lease terms or for rental payments commencing at a date other than the date of initial occupancy, the Company records minimum rental expenses on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Rental expense for operating leases totaled $201.1 million , $208.0 million , and $193.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively.
Leased Aircraft Return Costs
Costs associated with the return of leased aircraft are accrued when it is probable that a payment will be made and that amount is reasonably estimable, usually no sooner than after the last scheduled maintenance event prior to lease return. Any accrual is

53

Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

based on the time remaining on the lease, planned aircraft usage, and the provisions included in the lease agreement, although the actual amount due to any lessor upon return will not be known with certainty until lease termination.
As leased aircraft are returned, any payments are charged against the established accrual. The accrual is part of current and long-term liabilities and was not material as of December 31, 2018 and 2017. The expense is included in Aircraft rent in the consolidated statements of operations.
Revenue Recognition
Passenger revenue. The majority of the Company's revenue is derived from transporting passengers on our aircraft. The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with ASC 606, which was adopted on January 1, 2018, using the full retrospective method. See Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements section below for further discussion of adoption, including the impact on our previously issued financial statements.
The Company's primary operations are that of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Hawaiian. Principally all operations of Hawaiian either originate and/or end in the State of Hawai'i. The management of such operations is based on a system-wide approach due to the interdependence of Hawaiian's route structure in its various markets. As Hawaiian offers only one significant line of business (i.e., air transportation), management has concluded that it has only one segment. The Company's operating revenues by geographic region (as defined by the Department of Transportation, DOT) are summarized below:

2,432,413

Hawaiian attributes operating revenue by geographic region based on the destination of each flight segment. Hawaiian's tangible assets consist primarily of flight equipment, which are mobile across geographic markets, and, therefore, have not been allocated to specific geographic regions.
Passenger & Other revenue - Generally, the Company’s contracts with customers have two principal performance obligations, which are the promise to provide transportation to the passenger and the frequent flyer miles earned on the flight. In addition, the Company often charges additional fees for items such as baggage and in-flight entertainment. Such items are not capable of being distinct from the transportation provided because the customer can only benefit from the services during the flight. The transportation performance obligation, including the redemption of HawaiianMiles awards for flights, is satisfied, and revenue is recognized, as transportation is provided. In some instances, tickets sold by the Company can include a flight segment on another carrier which is referred to as an interline segment. In this situation, the Company acts as an agent for the other carrier and revenue is recognized net of cost in other revenue. Tickets sold by other airlines where the Company provides the transportation are recognized as passenger revenue at the estimated value to be billed to the other airline when travel is provided. Differences between amounts billed and the actual amounts may be rejected and rebilled or written off if the amount recorded was different from the original estimate.
Other operating revenue consists of cargo revenue, ground handling fees, commissions, and fees earned under certain joint marketing agreements with other companies. These amounts are recognized when the service is provided.

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 , and 2016 , the Company's total revenue was $2.8 billion , $2.7 billion , and $2.4 billion , respectively. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017 , the Company's Air traffic liability balance as it relates to passenger tickets (excluding frequent flyer) was $427.8 million and $421.6 million , respectively, which represents future revenue that is expected to be realized over the next 12 months . During the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 , and 2016 , the amount of revenue recognized that was included in Air traffic liability as of the beginning of the respective period was $421.0 million , $363.9 million , and $328.7 million , respectively.

Passenger revenue associated with unused tickets, which represent unexercised passenger rights, is recognized in proportion
to the pattern of rights exercised by related passengers (e.g. scheduled departure dates). To calculate the portion to be recognized as revenue in the period, the Company utilizes historical information and applies the trend rate to the current air traffic liability balances for that specific period.
Certain governmental taxes are imposed on the Company's ticket sales through a fee included in ticket prices. The Company collects these fees and remits them to the appropriate government agency. Management has elected (via a practical expedient election) to exclude from the measurement of the transaction price all taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and collected from a customer, e.g., sales, use, value added, and certain excise taxes. These fees have been presented on a net basis in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and recorded as a liability until remitted.
Frequent Flyer Revenue. Hawaiian's frequent flyer travel award program provides a variety of awards to program members based on accumulated mileage. ASC 606 requires the Company to account for miles earned by passengers in the HawaiianMiles program through flight activity as a component of the passenger revenue ticket transaction at the estimated selling price of the miles. Ticket consideration received is allocated between the performance obligations, primarily travel and miles earned by passengers. The allocated value of the miles is deferred until the free travel or other award is used by the passenger, at which time it is included in passenger revenue. The value of the ticket used in the determination of the estimated selling price is based on the historical value of equivalent flights to those provided for loyalty awards and the related miles redeemed to obtain that award adjusted for breakage or fulfillment. The equivalent ticket value (ETV) includes a fulfillment discount (breakage) to reflect the value of the award ticket over the number of miles that, based on historical experience, will be needed to obtain the award. On a quarterly basis, the Company calculates the ETV by analyzing the fares of similar tickets for the prior 12 months, considering cabin class and geographic region.
The Company also sells mileage credits to companies participating in our frequent flyer program These contracts generally include multiple performance obligations, including the transportation that will ultimately be provided when the mileage credits are redeemed and marketing and brand related activities. The marketing and brand performance obligations are effectively provided each time a HawaiianMiles member uses the co-branded credit card and monthly access to customer lists and marketing is provided, which corresponds to the timing of when the Company issues or is obligated to issue the mileage credits to the HawaiianMiles member. Therefore, the Company recognizes revenue for the marketing and brand performance obligations when HawaiianMiles members use their co-brand credit card and the resulting mileage credits are issued to them, which best correlates with the Company’s performance in satisfying the obligation.

During the first quarter of 2018, the Company amended its partnership with Barclaycard US, Hawaiian's co-branded credit card partner. Management determined that the amendment should be accounted for as a termination of the existing contract and the creation of a new contract under ASC 606 and the relative selling price was determined for each performance obligation of the new agreement. The new agreement continues through 2024 and includes improved economics and enhanced product offerings

55

Table of Contents
Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

for our Barclay's co-branded cardholders. The amended agreement did not change, and includes the following performance obligations; (i) transportation that will ultimately be provided when mileage credits are redeemed (transportation), (ii) the Hawaiian Airlines brand and access to its members lists (collectively, brand performance), (iii) marketing, and (iv) airline benefits to cardholders, including discounts and anniversary travel benefits, baggage waivers and inflight purchase credits. The Company determined the relative fair value of each performance obligation by estimating the selling prices of the deliverables by considering discounted cash flows using multiple inputs and assumptions, including: (1) the expected number of miles to be awarded and redeemed; (2) the estimated weighted average equivalent ticket value, adjusted by a fulfillment discount; (3) the estimated total annual cardholder spend; (4) an estimated royalty rate for the Hawaiian portfolio; and (5) the expected use of each of the airline benefits. The overall consideration received is allocated to the performance obligations based on their relative selling prices.

The transportation performance obligation is deferred and recognized as passenger revenue when the transportation is expected to be provided.

Accounting for mileage sales to co-branded partners involves the use of various techniques to estimate revenue. To determine the total estimated transaction price, the Company forecasts future credit card activity using historical information. The relative selling price is determined using management’s standalone estimated selling price of each performance obligation. The objective of using the estimated selling price based methodology is to determine the price at which the Company would transact a sale if the product or service were sold on a stand-alone basis. Accordingly, the Company determines the best estimate of selling price by considering multiple inputs and methods including, but not limited to, discounted cash flows, brand value, published selling prices, number of miles awarded and number of miles redeemed. The Company estimates the selling price of miles using an ETV adjusted for a fulfillment discount as described above.

The Company's frequent flyer liability is recorded in Air traffic liability (short-term) and Noncurrent frequent flyer deferred revenue in the Company's consolidated balance sheet based on estimated and expected redemption patterns using historical data and analysis. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017 , the balances were as follows:

Miles expire after 18 months of member account inactivity. The Company reviews its breakage estimates annually based upon the latest available information regarding redemption and expiration patterns (e.g., credit card and non-credit card holders). The Company’s estimate of the expected expiration of miles requires significant management judgment. Current and future changes to expiration assumptions or to the expiration policy, or to program rules and program could affect the estimated value of a mile.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable primarily consist of amounts due from credit card companies, non-airline partners, and cargo transportation customers. The Company provides an allowance for uncollectible accounts equal to the estimated losses expected to be incurred based on historical chargebacks, write-offs, bankruptcies and other specific analyses. Bad debt expense was not material in any period presented.
Costs to obtain or fulfill a contract
In order for the Company to provide transportation to its customers, the Company incurs fulfillment costs (booking fees, credit card fees, and commission/selling costs), which are deferred until the period in which the flight occurs. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017 , the Company's asset balance associated with these costs were $16.3 million and $16.7 million , respectively. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 , and 2016 , expenses related to these costs totaled to $96.0 million , $95.5 million , and $94.3 million , respectively. To determine the amount to capitalize and expense at the end of each period, the Company uses historical sales data and estimates the amount associated with unflown tickets.
Pension and Postretirement and Postemployment Benefits

56

Table of Contents
Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

The Company accounts for its defined benefit pension and other postretirement and postemployment plans in accordance with ASC 715, Compensation—Retirement Benefits (ASC 715), which requires companies to measure their plans' assets and obligations to determine the funded status at fiscal year-end, reflect the funded status in the statement of financial position as an asset or liability, and recognize changes in the funded status of the plans in comprehensive income during the year in which the changes occur. Pension and other postretirement and postemployment benefit expenses are recognized on an accrual basis over each employee's service periods. Pension expense is generally independent of funding decisions or requirements.
The Company uses the corridor approach in the valuation of its defined benefit pension and other postretirement and postemployment plans. The corridor approach defers all actuarial gains and losses resulting from variances between actual results and actuarial assumptions. These unrecognized actuarial gains and losses are amortized when the net gains and losses exceed 10% of the greater of the market-related value of plan assets or the projected benefit obligation at the beginning of the year. The amount in excess of the corridor is amortized over the expected average remaining service period of active plan participants for the open plans and is amortized over the expected average remaining lifetime of inactive participants for plans whose population is “all or almost all” inactive.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed when incurred. Advertising expense was $19.3 million , $16.6 million and $18.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2018 , 2017 , and 2016 , respectively.
Capitalized Interest
Interest is capitalized upon the payment of predelivery deposits for aircraft and engines, and is depreciated over the estimated useful life of the asset from service inception date.
Share-Based Compensation
The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award. The fair value of the awards are estimated using the following: (1) option-pricing models for grants of stock options or (2) fair value at the measurement date (usually the grant date) for awards of stock subject to service and / or performance-based vesting. The resulting cost is recognized as compensation expense over the period of time during which an employee is required to provide services to the Company (the service period) in exchange for the award, the service period generally being the vesting period of the award. The Company's policy is to recognize forfeitures as they occur.
Financial Derivative Instruments
The Company uses derivatives to manage risks associated with certain assets and liabilities arising from the potential adverse impact of fluctuations in global aircraft fuel prices, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.
The following table summarizes the accounting treatment of the Company's derivative contracts:

If the Company terminates a derivative designated for hedge accounting under ASC 815, prior to its contractual settlement date, then the cumulative gain or loss recognized in AOCI at the termination date remains in AOCI until the forecasted transaction occurs. In a situation where it becomes probable that a hedged forecasted transaction will not occur, any gains and/or losses that have been recorded to AOCI would be required to be immediately reclassified into earnings. All cash flows associated with purchasing and settling derivatives are classified as operating cash flows in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

In February 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. The standard focuses on a targeted improvement to reclassify stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the Tax Act) enacted on December 22, 2017 from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. The Company elected to early adopt the standard in the year ended December 31, 2018 and reclassified tax benefit of $12.5 million from accumulated other comprehensive income to accumulated income in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASC 606, requiring an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. ASC 606 replaced most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP and is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017.

The Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2018, utilizing the full retrospective transition method, which required the Company to restate prior reporting periods presented.

The most significant impact of the standard relates to the accounting for the Company's frequent flyer travel award program. This change, as well as other less significant changes, are described below:

Frequent flyer - The standard requires the Company to account for miles earned by passengers in the HawaiianMiles program through flight activity as a component of the passenger revenue ticket transaction at the estimated selling price of the miles, effectively eliminating the incremental cost accounting previously applied. The allocated value of miles earned through flights and sold to partners is recognized at the time the free travel or other award is redeemed by the passenger. Previously, the transportation element associated with sold miles was deferred and recognized as passenger revenue over the period when the transportation was expected to be provided ( 23 months).
Passenger revenue - Prior to the adoption of ASC 606, the Company recorded revenue for unused tickets when the tickets expired. Ticket change fees were previously recognized at the time the fees were assessed. Further, the Company reclassified revenue items such as checked baggage, charter, ticket change and cancellation fees, in flight revenue, and other incidental sales to passenger revenue (from other operating revenue), as these items do not represent distinct performance obligations separate from the transportation provided to the passenger.
Selling Costs - Prior to ASC 606, the Company recognized the costs associated with credit card and booking fees as they were incurred.

Adoption of the revenue recognition standard impacted our previously reported results as follows:

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging , which better aligns a company's risk management activities and financial reporting for hedging relationships and is intended to simplify the hedge accounting requirements. ASU 2017-12 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the components and options within ASU 2017-12. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (codified within ASC 842, Leases ). ASC 842 requires a lessee to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability in the statement of financial position for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the lease commencement date and recognize expenses similar to the current ASC 840, Leases. ASC 842 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. The Company currently plans to utilize the optional transition method for adoption of ASC 842, which allows entities to continue to apply the legacy guidance in Topic 840, including its disclosure requirements, in the comparative periods presented in the year of adoption. The Company plans to adopt ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019, as required.

Table of Contents
Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

Under ASU 2016-02, the lease liability will be measured at the present value of remaining lease payments and the right-of-use (ROU) asset will be derived from the calculation of the lease liability, adjusted for any historically recorded amounts under Topic 840 for rent leveling and certain other adjustments (ROU Asset). Lease payments, which are comparable to the minimum lease payments included in the Company's existing lease commitments disclosure, include fixed and in-substance fixed payments, variable payments based on an index or rate, reasonably certain purchase options, termination penalties and probable amounts the lessee will owe under a residual value guarantee. Lease payments exclude variable payments other than those based on an index or rate or any amount allocated to non-lease components (unless the practical expedient is elected on an asset class level to combine components). Variable lease payments will continue to be expensed as incurred.

The Company completed its preliminary evaluation of implementing ASU 2016-02 and believes that the most significant impact on its financial statements will be the consolidated balance sheet impact of recording the ROU Asset and Operating Lease Liability for existing aircraft and engine leases, its Maintenance Hangar lease with the State of Hawaii, and certain real estate leases. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had 17 aircraft and 5 engines under operating lease in its fleet. The net present value of future lease payments for the aforementioned leases range between $550 million and $650 million . The Company also has operating leases related to terminal operations and office space, which are not included in the range provided, because the majority of these leases have variable payments and are not expected to be included in the Operating Lease Liability at adoption. Management does not believe that the impact of adopting ASC 842 will be significant to the consolidated statement of operations and consolidated statements of cash flows.

ASC 842 also eliminates the current build-to-suit lease accounting guidance and is expected to result in derecognition of build-to-suit assets and liabilities that remained on the balance sheet after the end of the construction period and then the application of lease accounting to the agreement. See Note 9 for additional discussion on the Company's build-to-suit project. Management concluded that the lease will be accounted for as an operating lease under ASC 842, which will result in operating lease expense being recognized equally over the lease term, which is a change from the current treatment as a financing, similar to capital lease treatment. The present value of the Operating Lease Liability, including the amount previously recognized as a financing liability of $73.0 million , is included in the range discussed above.

3. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share, which excludes dilution, is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.
Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. Antidilutive common stock equivalents excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation are not material. The following table shows our computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

5. Fair Value Measurements
ASC 820 defines fair value as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1 - Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term for the assets or liabilities; and

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Cash equivalents.  The Company’s Level 1 cash equivalents consist of money market securities. The carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these assets and Level 2 cash equivalents consist of U.S. agency bonds, mutual funds, and commercial paper.  These instruments are valued using quoted prices for similar assets in active markets.

Restricted cash .  The Company’s restricted cash consist of money market securities.
 
Short-term investments.  Short-term investments include corporate debt, U.S. government and agency debt, municipal bonds, and other fixed income securities.  These instruments are valued using quoted prices for similar assets in active markets or other observable inputs.

Fuel derivative contracts.  The Company’s fuel derivative contracts consist of crude oil call options, which are not traded on a public exchange. The fair value of these instruments are determined based on inputs available or derived from public markets including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, fuel price curves and measures of volatility, among others.
 
Foreign currency derivatives.  The Company’s foreign currency derivatives consist of Japanese Yen and Australian Dollar forward contracts and are valued based primarily on data readily observable in public markets.

The fair value estimates of the Company's debt were based on the discounted amount of future cash flows using the Company's current incremental rate of borrowing for similar obligations.
The carrying amounts of cash, other receivables, and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.


6. Financial Derivative Instruments
The Company uses derivatives to manage risks associated with certain assets and liabilities arising from the potential adverse impact of fluctuations in global fuel prices, interest rates and foreign currencies.
Fuel Risk Management
The Company's operations are inherently dependent upon the price and availability of aircraft fuel. To manage economic risks associated with fluctuations in aircraft fuel prices, the Company periodically enters into derivative financial instruments. The Company uses a combination of derivative contracts to hedge its aircraft fuel expense. As of December 31, 2018 , the Company's portfolio comprised of crude oil call options, which were not designated as hedges under ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815), for hedge accounting treatment. As a result, any changes in fair value of these derivative instruments are adjusted through other nonoperating income (expense) in the period of change.
The following table reflects the amount of realized and unrealized gains and losses recorded as nonoperating income (expense) in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk Management
The Company is subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk due to revenues and expenses denominated in foreign currencies, with the primary exposures being the Japanese Yen and Australian Dollar. To manage exchange rate risk, the Company executes its international revenue and expense transactions in the same foreign currency to the extent practicable. The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts to further manage the effects of fluctuating exchange rates. The effective portion of the gain or loss is reported as a component of AOCI and reclassified into earnings in the same period in which the related sales are recognized as passenger revenue. The effective portion of the foreign currency forward contracts represents the change in fair value of the hedge that offsets the change in the fair value of the hedged item. To the extent the change in the fair value of the hedge does not perfectly offset the change in the fair value of the hedged item, the ineffective portion of the hedge is immediately recognized as nonoperating income (expense).
The Company believes that its foreign currency forward contracts will continue to be effective in offsetting changes in cash flow attributable to the hedged risk. The Company expects to reclassify a net gain of approximately $3.9 million into earnings over the next 12 months from AOCI based on the values at December 31, 2018 .

Risk and Collateral
The financial derivative instruments expose the Company to possible credit loss in the event the counterparties to the agreements fail to meet their obligations. To manage such credit risks, the Company (1) selects its counterparties based on past experience and credit ratings, (2) limits its exposure to any single counterparty, and (3) periodically monitors the market position and credit rating of each counterparty. Credit risk is deemed to have a minimal impact on the fair value of the

66

Table of Contents
Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

derivative instruments as cash collateral would be provided to or by the counterparties based on the current market exposure of the derivative.
The Company's agreements with its counterparties also require the posting of cash collateral in the event the aggregate value of the Company's positions exceeds certain exposure thresholds. The aggregate fair value of the Company's derivative instruments that contain credit-risk related contingent features that are in a net asset position was $4.8 million and a net asset position of $23.2 million as of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , respectively.
ASC 815 requires a reporting entity to elect a policy of whether to offset rights to reclaim cash collateral or obligations to return cash collateral against derivative assets and liabilities executed with the same counterparty under a master netting agreement, or present such amounts on a gross basis. The Company's accounting policy is to present its derivative assets and liabilities on a net basis, including any collateral posted with the counterparty. The Company had no collateral posted with its counterparties as of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 .
The Company is also subject to market risk in the event these financial instruments become less valuable in the market. However, changes in the fair value of the derivative instruments will generally offset the change in the fair value of the hedged item, limiting the Company's overall exposure.

(1) The equipment notes underlying these EETCs are the direct obligations of Hawaiian.

(2) Aircraft Facility Agreements are secured by aircraft.

Enhanced Equipment Trust Certificates (EETC)

In 2013, Hawaiian consummated an EETC financing, whereby it created two pass-through trusts, each of which issued pass-through certificates. The proceeds of the issuance of the pass-through certificates were used to purchase equipment notes issued by the Company to fund a portion of the purchase price for six Airbus aircraft, all of which were delivered in 2013 and 2014. The equipment notes are secured by a lien on the aircraft, and the payment obligations of Hawaiian under the equipment notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company. The Company issued the equipment notes to the trusts as aircraft were delivered to Hawaiian. Hawaiian received all proceeds from the pass-through trusts by 2014 and recorded the debt obligation upon issuance of the equipment notes rather than upon the initial issuance of the pass-through certificates.

The Company evaluated whether the pass-through trusts formed are variable interest entities ("VIEs") required to be consolidated by the Company under applicable accounting guidance, and determined that the pass-through trusts are VIEs. The Company determined that it does not have a variable interest in the pass-through trusts. Neither the Company nor Hawaiian invested in or obtained a financial interest in the pass-through trusts. Rather, Hawaiian has an obligation to make interest and principal payments on it equipment notes held by the pass-through trusts, which are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company. Neither the Company nor Hawaiian intends to have any voting or non-voting equity interest in the pass-through trusts or to absorb variability from the pass-through trusts. Based on this analysis, the Company determined that it is not required to consolidate the pass-through trusts.

Foreign Denominated Financing

In 2018, the Company entered into two Japanese Yen denominated financings with a total value of approximately $86.5 million ( ¥9.6 billion ), collateralized by the aircraft financed. Each financing is for a term of 12 years with quarterly or semiannual principal and interest payments, respectively, at fixed installment coupon rates of 1.01% and 1.05% , respectively. The fluctuation in foreign exchange rates at each balance sheet date is reflected within the nonoperating income (expense) line item

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. During 2018, the Company recorded foreign currency unrealized losses of $0.4 million.

Debt Extinguishment

In 2018 and 2017, the Company had no debt extinguishment activity. In 2016, Hawaiian extinguished $140.5 million of its existing debt under secured financing agreements, which were originally scheduled to mature in 2022 and 2023. This debt extinguishment resulted in a loss of $10.0 million , which is reflected in nonoperating income (expense) in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Revolving Credit Facility

In December 2018, Hawaiian amended and restated the existing credit agreement with Citigroup Global Markets Inc., increasing the secured revolving credit and letter (Revolving Credit Facility) from $225 million to $235 million . This Revolving Credit Facility will mature in December 2022 and has a 12 -month renewal option. This was accounted for as a modification of the existing agreement and approximately $0.6 million in unamortized costs will be amortized over the amended term along with additional issuance costs for the renewal of $2.0 million . Hawaiian may, from time to time, grant liens on certain eligible account receivables, aircraft, spare engines, ground support equipment and route authorities, as well as cash and certain cash equivalents, in order to secure its outstanding obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility. Indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Facility will bear interest, at a per annum rate based on, at Hawaiian's option: (1) a variable rate equal to the London interbank offer rate plus a margin of 2.0% ; or (2) Alternate base rate (as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility) plus a margin of 1.0% . Hawaiian is also subject to compliance and liquidity covenants under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2018 , the Company had no outstanding borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Maintenance Hangar
In November 2016, the Company entered into a lease agreement with the Department of Transportation of the State of Hawai'i to lease a cargo and maintenance hangar at the Daniel K. Inouye International Airport with a lease term of 35 years. As the hangar was not fully constructed, the Company took responsibility of the construction and was responsible for the remainder of the construction costs of $33.3 million . In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance, specifically as it relates to the Company's involvement in the construction of the hangar, the Company was considered the owner of the asset under construction and has recognized an additional $73.0 million asset, with a corresponding lease liability, for the amount previously spent by the lessor.
The Company placed the hangar into service in late 2017. The $73.0 million liability is relieved as the Company makes rental payments under the agreement and the $106.3 million asset (the original $73.0 million plus an additional $33.3 million of asset additions), is depreciated over the lease term.
10. Income Taxes
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Act was enacted into law, which significantly changed existing U.S. tax law and reduced the U.S. federal corporate tax from 35% to 21%. The Company recognized a one-time benefit of $83.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2017 from the impact of the revaluation of deferred tax assets and liabilities. During the year ended December 31, 2018 , the Company completed its accounting for the effects of the Tax Act and recorded an additional tax benefit of $9.3 million primarily related to deductions for additional pension contributions made in 2018 for the 2017 Plan year.

The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income (including the reversal of deferred tax liabilities) during the periods in which those deferred tax assets will become deductible. The Company's management assesses the realizability of its deferred tax assets, and records a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that a portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had available for state income tax purposes net operating loss carryforwards of $73.3 million , respectively. The tax benefit of the net operating loss carryforwards as of December 31, 2018 was $2.5 million , all of which has a valuation allowance.
In accordance with ASC 740, the Company reviews its uncertain tax positions on an ongoing basis. The Company may be required to adjust its liability as these matters are finalized, which could increase or decrease its income tax expense and effective income tax rates or result in an adjustment to the valuation allowance. The Company does not expect that the unrecognized tax benefit related to uncertain tax positions will significantly change within the next 12 months.

Contract terminations expense
(1) During the twelve months ended December 31, 2018, the Company terminated two contracts which incurred a total of $35.3 million in contract terminations expense. The transactions are described below:
In February 2018, the Company exercised its right to terminate the aircraft purchase agreement between the Company and Airbus for six Airbus A330-800neo aircraft and the purchase rights for an additional six Airbus A330-800neo aircraft. To terminate the purchase agreement, the Company was obligated to repay Airbus for concessions received relating to a prior firm order, training credits, as well as forfeit the pre-delivery progress payments made towards the flight equipment. The Company recorded a contract terminations expense to reflect a portion of the termination penalty within the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In January 2018, the Company entered into a transaction with its lessor to early terminate and purchase three Boeing 767-300 aircraft leases and concurrently entered into a forward sale agreement for the same three Boeing 767-300 aircraft, including two Pratt & Whitney 4060 engines for each aircraft. These aircraft were previously accounted for as operating leases. In order to exit the lease and purchase the aircraft, the Company agreed to pay a total of $67.1 million (net of all deposits) of which a portion was expensed immediately and recognized as a contract termination fee. The expensed amount represents the total purchase price amount over fair value of the aircraft purchased as of the date of the transaction.
Special items
(2) In August 2017, the Company terminated the Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. Salaried & IAM Merged Pension Plan (the Merged Plan) and settled a portion of its pilots' other post-retirement medical plan liability. In connection with the reduction of these liabilities, the Company recorded one-time Other nonoperating special charges of $35.2 million related to the Merged Plan termination and $10.4 million related to the other post-retirement (OPEB) medical plan partial settlement.

(3) In April 2017, the Company executed a sale leaseback transaction with an independent third party for three Boeing 767-300 aircraft. The lease terms for the three aircraft commenced in April 2017 and end between November 2018 through January 2019. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded a loss on sale of aircraft of $4.8 million .

(4) In February 2017, the Company reached a tentative agreement with ALPA, covering the Company's pilots. In March 2017, the Company received notice from ALPA that the agreement was ratified by ALPA's members.  The agreement became effective April 1, 2017 and has a term of 63 months.  The agreement includes, among other various benefits, a pay adjustment and ratification bonus computed based on previous service. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2017, the Company

expensed $18.7 million principally related to a one-time payment to reduce the Company's future 401K employer contribution for certain pilot groups, which is not recoverable once paid.

(5) The impairment analysis and ultimate charge was triggered by the decision in the fourth quarter of 2016 to exit the Boeing 767-300 fleet in 2018. The early exit of the Boeing 767-300 fleet was made possible by the Company's decision to acquire one Airbus A330-200 (delivered in 2017), lease two additional Airbus A321neo's (delivered in 2018 and in addition to the Company's existing aircraft orders), and the Company's ability to early terminate its long-term power-by-the-hour maintenance contract for the Boeing 767-300 fleet. This fleet change allows the Company to streamline the fleet, simplify operations, and potentially reduce costs in the future. In order to assess whether there was an impairment of the Boeing 767-300 asset group, the Company compared the projected undiscounted cash flows of the fleet to the book value of the assets and determined the book value was in excess of the undiscounted cash flows. The Company estimated the fair value of the owned Boeing 767-300 fleet assets using third party pricing information and quotes from potential buyers, which resulted in a $49.4 million impairment charge ( $0.92 per diluted share). The Company's determination of fair value considered attributes specific to the owned Boeing 767-300 fleet and aircraft condition (e.g. age, maintenance requirements, cycles, etc.).

(6) In 2016, the Company accrued $34.0 million associated with the tentative agreement with ALPA related to past service (prior to January 1, 2017) and also elected to pay a $4.8 million profit sharing bonus payment to other labor groups related to prior period service.

(7) In connection with the decision to exit the Boeing 767-300 fleet, the Company negotiated a termination of its Boeing 767-300 maintenance agreement and recorded a $21.0 million charge related to the amount paid to terminate the contract.

12. Employee Benefit Plans
Defined Benefit Plans
Hawaiian sponsors a defined benefit pension plan covering the Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA) and prior to August 2017, sponsored the defined benefit pension plans for the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (AFL-CIO) (IAM) and other personnel (salaried, Transport Workers Union, Network Engineering Group). The plans for the IAM and other employees were frozen in September 1993. Effective January 1, 2008, benefit accruals for pilots under age 50 as of July 1, 2005 were frozen (with the exception of certain pilots who were both age 50 and older and participants of the plan on July 1, 2005) and Hawaiian began making contributions to an alternate defined contribution retirement program for its pilots. All of the pilots' accrued benefits under their defined benefit plan at the date of the freeze were preserved. In addition, Hawaiian sponsors four unfunded defined benefit postretirement medical and life insurance plans and a separate plan to administer the pilots' disability benefits.
In 2016, the Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. Pension Plan for Salaried Employees (Salaried Plan) was consolidated into the Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. Pension Plan for Employees Represented by the International Association of Machinists (IAM), which established the Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. Salaried & IAM Merged Pension Plan (the Merged Plan). At that time, the net liabilities of the Salaried Plan were transferred to the Merged Plan. In August 2017, the Company completed the termination of the plan by transferring the assets and liabilities to a third-party insurance company. In 2017, the Company contributed a total of $18.5 million in cash to fully fund the plan and recognized a one-time financial loss of $35.2 million as an Other nonoperating special item on the Company's Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company no longer has any expected contributions to the Merged Plan due to the final settlement.
In March 2017, the Company announced the ratification of a 63 -month contract amendment with its pilots as represented by the Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA). In connection with the ratification of the agreement, the parties agreed to eliminate the post-65 post-retirement medical benefit for all active pilots, and replace the benefit with a heath retirement account (HRA) managed by ALPA, which represented a curtailment and partial settlement of the pilots' other post-retirement benefit plan. In August 2017, the Company made a one-time cash payment of $101.9 million to fund the HRA and settle the post-65 post-retirement medical plan obligation (for active pilots as of April 1, 2017). The cash contributed was distributed to the trust funding the individual health retirement notional accounts of the participants. In connection with the settlement of the liability, the discount rate was updated to 3.86% . The Company recognized a one-time settlement loss of $10.4 million . The obligation recorded for the unsettled portion of this plan was $73.4 million as of the partial settlement date.

Plan Assets
The Company develops the expected long-term rate of return assumption based on historical experience and by evaluating input from the trustee managing the plan's assets, including the trustee's review of asset class return expectations by several consultants and economists, as well as long-term inflation assumptions. The Company's expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is based on a target allocation of assets, which is based on the goal of earning the highest rate of return while maintaining risk at acceptable levels. The Retirement Plan for Pilots of Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. and the Pilot's Voluntary Employee Beneficiary Association Disability and Survivor's Benefit Plan (VEBA) strive to have assets sufficiently diversified so that adverse or unexpected results from any one security class will not have an unduly detrimental impact on the entire portfolio. Prior to termination, the Merged Plan targeted to have its assets align with the potential liability as of the expected settlement date. The actual allocation of the Company's pension and disability plan assets and the target allocation of assets by category at December 31, 2018 are as follows:

Equity index funds.     The investment objective of these funds are to obtain a reasonable rate of return while investing principally or entirely in foreign or domestic equity securities. There are currently no redemption restrictions on these investments.
Fixed income funds.     The investment objective of these funds are to obtain a reasonable rate of return while principally investing in foreign and domestic bonds, mortgage-backed securities, and asset-backed securities. There are currently no redemption restrictions on these investments.
Real estate investment fund.     The investment objective of this fund is to obtain a reasonable rate of return while principally investing in real estate investment trusts. There are currently no redemption restrictions on these investments.
Insurance Company Pooled Separate Account.     The investment objective of the Insurance Company Pooled Separate Account is to invest in short-term cash equivalent securities to provide a high current income consistent with the preservation of principal and liquidity.
Common collective trust (CCT).     The postretirement plan's CCT investment consists of a balanced profile fund and a conservative profile fund. These funds primarily invest in mutual funds and exchange-traded funds. The balanced profile fund is designed for participating trusts that seek substantial capital growth, place modest emphasis on short-term stability, have long-term investment objectives, and accept short-term volatility in the value of the fund's portfolio. The conservative profile fund is designed for participating trusts that place modest emphasis on capital growth, place moderate emphasis on short-term stability, have intermediate-to-long-term investment objectives, and accept moderate short-term volatility in the value of the fund's portfolio. There are currently no redemption restrictions on these investments.
Based on current legislation and current assumptions, the contribution that the Company expects to have a minimum contribution requirement of nil for 2019 . The Company projects that Hawaiian's pension plans and other postretirement benefit plans will make the following benefit payments, which reflect expected future service, during the years ending December 31:

In February 2018, the Company exercised its right to terminate its aircraft purchase agreement between the Company and Airbus for six Airbus A330-800neo aircraft and the purchase rights for an additional six Airbus A330-800neo aircraft. Refer to Note 11 below for discussion on the contract termination charge.

In July 2018, the Company entered into a purchase agreement for the purchase of ten Boeing 787-9 "Dreamliner" aircraft with purchase rights for an additional 10 aircraft with scheduled delivery from 2021 to 2025. In October 2018, the Company entered into a definitive agreement for the selection of GEnx engines to power its Boeing 787-9 fleet. The agreement provides for the purchase of 20 GEnx engines, the right to purchase an additional 20 GEnx engines and the purchase of up to four spare engines. In December 2018, the Company entered into an amendment to the purchase agreement with Boeing, which includes an option for the Company to accelerate delivery of B787-9 aircraft from 2024 and 2025 to 2023; however, the Company does not currently expect to execute the option to accelerate its planned delivery schedule. The committed expenditures under these agreements are reflected in the table above. The Company also intends to enter into additional related agreements in connection with the Boeing 787-9 purchases, including for the purchase of a flight simulator, spare parts and materials, and related services.
In order to complete the purchase of these aircraft and fund related costs, the Company may need to secure acceptable financing. The Company has backstop financing available from aircraft and engine manufacturers, subject to certain customary conditions. Financing may be necessary to satisfy our capital commitments for firm order aircraft and other related capital expenditures. The Company can provide no assurance that any financing not already in place for aircraft and spare engine deliveries will be available to us on acceptable terms when necessary or at all.
Litigation and Contingencies

The Company is subject to legal proceedings arising in the normal course of its operations. Management does not anticipate that the disposition of any currently pending proceeding will have a material effect on the Company's operations, business or financial condition.

General Guarantees and Indemnifications

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into numerous aircraft financing and real estate leasing arrangements that have various guarantees included in the contract. It is common in such lease transactions for the lessee to agree to indemnify the lessor and other related third-parties for tort liabilities that arise out of or relate to the lessee's use of the leased aircraft or occupancy of the leased premises. In some cases, this indemnity extends to related liabilities arising from the negligence of the indemnified parties, but usually excludes any liabilities caused by their gross negligence or willful misconduct. Additionally, the lessee typically indemnifies such parties for any environmental liability that arises out of or relates to its use of the real estate leased premises. The Company believes that it is insured (subject to deductibles) for most tort liabilities and related indemnities described above with respect to the aircraft and real estate that it leases. The Company cannot estimate the potential amount of future payments, if any, under the foregoing indemnities and agreements.

Credit Card Holdback

Under the Company's bank-issued credit card processing agreements, certain proceeds from advance ticket sales may be held back to serve as collateral to cover any possible chargebacks or other disputed charges that may occur. These holdbacks, which are included in restricted cash in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets, totaled $1.0 million at December 31, 2017 . As of December 31, 2018 , there were no holdbacks held with the Company's credit card processors.


82

Table of Contents
Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

In the event of a material adverse change in the business, the holdback could increase to an amount up to 100% of the applicable credit card air traffic liability, which would also cause an increase in the level of restricted cash.
Labor Negotiations
As of December 31, 2018 , approximately 84% of employees were represented by unions. Additionally, the collective bargaining agreement for the Association of Flight Attendants (AFA), which represents 29% of employees became amendable on January 1, 2017, the Company is currently in negotiations with the AFA. The Company can provide no assurance that a successful or timely resolution of these labor negotiations will be achieved.

(a) Amounts adjusted for the adoption of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) No. 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers . See Note 1 to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
* During the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company recorded a $4.6 million reduction in its OPEB settlement related to the third quarter of 2017 revising the settlement from $15.0 million to $10.4 million .
** Amounts reflect the impact of the Tax Act enacted in 2017. See Note 10 for further discussion.
The sum of the quarterly net income (loss) per common stock share amounts does not equal the annual amount reported since per share amounts are computed independently for each quarter and for the full year based on respective weighted-average common shares outstanding and other dilutive potential common shares.
The Company's quarterly financial results are subject to seasonal fluctuations. Historically its second and third quarter financial results, which reflect periods of higher travel demand, are better than its first and fourth quarter financial results.

Management's Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), performed an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, our management, including our CEO and CFO, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2018 , and provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our CEO and CFO, an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018 was conducted. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013 framework). Based on their assessment, we concluded that, as of December 31, 2018 , the Company's internal control over financial reporting was effective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We reviewed the results of management's assessment with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.
The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018 , has been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm who also has audited our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Ernst & Young's report on our internal control over financial reporting appears below.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2018 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Our management, including our CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system's objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.
Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.

Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited Hawaiian Holdings Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). In our opinion, Hawaiian Holdings Inc. (the Company) maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2018, and the related notes and financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 15(a)(collectively referred to as the “financial statements”) of the Company and our report dated February 13, 2019 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying “Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting”. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In order to assure that an adequate supply of GE Spare Engines are available to support the worldwide operating fleet of GE powered aircraft, GE reserves the option, for a limited period of time following the sale of Engines to Airline, to repurchase Engines which Airline proposes to utilize for other than its own operating purposes .

Accordingly, if within the first [***] on any Engine sold hereunder, Airline elects to a) offer such Engine for resale or b) undertake action to cause components or parts of such Engine to be made available for sale, Airline shall give GE prompt advanced written notice of such determination (“Airline’s Notice”).

Promptly upon receipt of such notice, GE shall have first option to repurchase the Engine from Airline (the “GE Repurchase Option”) If requested by GE, an independent expert, jointly designated by GE and Airline, shall verify such offer while maintaining in confidence the identity of such third party.

GE shall give Airline notice of its decision to decline or to exercise such GE Repurchase Option within twenty (20) business days of its receipt of Airline’s Notice. Fulfillment by GE of the GE Repurchase Option shall be conditional upon technical inspection, review and acceptance of the Engine and its records by GE and the execution of a mutually acceptable purchase agreement.

For the avoidance of doubt, such GE Repurchase Option shall not apply to any sale of an Engine intended to secure sale/leaseback financing in connection therewith.

The remedies described in Paragraphs (A) and (B) above do not apply to any Engine or part thereof or Product: (1) not purchased by Airline from Seller or a supplier of certified GE parts (except for any Engine or part thereof or Product installed as Original Equipment on aircraft owned, leased or operated by Airline); (2) that was changed, modified, or not used for its intended purpose; or (3) that was manufactured by Seller to Airline’s unique specifications or directions.

The obligations recited in this Article shall constitute the sole and exclusive liability of Seller for actual or alleged infringement of Intellectual Property Rights and the remedies of Airline shall not be subject to the limitation of liability set out in Article 12 “Limitation of Liability”.

2.
In the event a controls and accessories vendor fails to provide a warranty at least as favorable as the GE New Engine Warranty (for complete controls and accessories) or New Parts Warranty (for components thereof), or if provided, rejects a proper claim from Airline, GE will intercede on behalf of Airline to resolve the claim with the vendor. In the event GE is unable to resolve a proper claim with the vendor, GE will honor a claim from Airline under the provisions and subject to the limitations of GE’s New Engine or New Parts Warranty, as applicable.

WHEREAS, the GTA contains the applicable terms and conditions governing the sale by GE and GE-LLC and the purchase by Airline of Spare Engines, related equipment and spare parts therefor in support of Airline’s GE powered fleet of aircraft from The Boeing Company (“Airframer”).
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, the Parties agree as follows:
1.
Airline has entered into an agreement with Airframer to take delivery of ten (10) new firm GEnx-1B powered [***], 787-9, or [***] aircraft (the “Firm Aircraft”) and up to ten (10) Option Aircraft or Purchase Right Aircraft (the “Future Option Aircraft”, jointly the “Aircraft”) delivered direct from Airframer in accordance with the delivery schedule set forth in Attachment A hereto (the “Delivery Schedule”).

[***] Confidential treatment has been requested for the bracketed portions. The confidential redacted portion has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

GE Designated: -CONFIDENTIAL-



take delivery of [***] Basic Engine and [***] Propulsor. However, as an alternative to [***] Basic Engine and [***] Propulsor, Airline may, in satisfaction of this initial requirement, elect to purchase and take delivery of [***] Basic Engines and [***] Propulsors from GE. In either case, Airline (starting with a spare Basic Engine) will maintain a Spare Engine to installed Engine ratio of not less than [***] in support of the Aircraft and Leased Aircraft (as defined in paragraph 2 below). Specifically, Airline will take delivery of first spare Basic Engine with delivery of the [***] Aircraft or Leased Aircraft, take delivery of second Spare Engine with delivery of the [***] Aircraft or Leased Aircraft, and providing Airline takes delivery of additional Aircraft or Leased Aircraft, Airline will take delivery of third Spare Engine with delivery of the [***] Aircraft or Leased Aircraft and a fourth Spare Engine with delivery of the [***] Aircraft or Leased Aircraft.

2.
Airline may lease from lessor(s) additional new GEnx-1B powered [***], 787-9, or [***] aircraft (“Leased Aircraft”), which Airline will add to this Letter Agreement unless otherwise prohibited by the lessor. Paragraph B, Special Guarantees, are extended for up to [***] Leased Aircraft. If more than [***] Leased Aircraft are leased, then the [***] for those Leased Aircraft above the cap of [***] Leased Aircraft will be covered in a separate amendment to this Letter Agreement. [***]

A. Special Allowances
In addition to the allowances passed to Airline by Airframer on GE’s behalf, GE agrees to provide the following allowances to Airline subject to the conditions set forth in Attachment B hereto:
1.
Aircraft Allowance
For each of the Aircraft delivered to Airline [***] , GE will provide Airline with a per aircraft allowance for each such Aircraft in the amount of:
[***] for each shipset of GEnx-1B67 Engines purchased
[***] for each shipset of GEnx-1B70 Engines purchased
[***] for each shipset of GEnx-1B74/75 Engines purchased
(“Aircraft Allowance”)
Such per Aircraft Allowance is stated in January [***] and shall be subject to adjustment for escalation to the date of the scheduled Aircraft delivery to Airline in accordance with

Each per Aircraft Allowance will be earned by Airline upon delivery of Aircraft to Airline. If Airline provides the Aircraft delivery date at least fifteen (15) business days prior to scheduled Aircraft delivery date for the first Aircraft delivery and at least five (5) business days for subsequent Aircraft, GE will provide the Aircraft Allowance directly to the Airframer. Airline shall continue to advise GE of any delivery date changes.
Otherwise, Aircraft Allowance will be made available to Airline within five (5) business days following receipt of written notice from Airline that it has taken delivery of each Aircraft in accordance with its purchase agreement with Airframer.
If GE provides the Aircraft Allowance to the Airframer and the actual delivery date is delayed more than 2 business days from the scheduled delivery date, and Airline has notified GE that it has requested Airframer to refund the Aircraft Allowance, and during such time GE has not received refund of the Aircraft Allowance from the Airframer and so notified Airline, then Airline will pay to GE interest on such amount, unless the delay is caused by GE. Interest will be calculated from the date of scheduled delivery to the actual delivery date of the Aircraft. Interest will be computed at [***] .

ARTICLE 6 – INVOICING AND PAYMENT

6.1
Rate Per EFH Payments . Customer will make reasonable efforts to provide to GE the flight hours and cycles flown by each Engine serial number for the previous month by the fifth (5 th ) Day of each month, but no later than the tenth (10 th ) Day of each month. Concurrently, GE and/or the Customer will provide to the other Party data on the Take-off Derate, Climb Derate, Adaptive Derate, and the Static Temperature Adjusted to Sea Level temperature for each flight for each Engine in the previous month.

[***] Confidential treatment has been requested for the bracketed portions. The confidential redacted portion has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

GE Designated: -CONFIDENTIAL- 6
Subject to restrictions on the cover or first page



Using this data, GE will determine the average flight leg, annualized utilization, average Static Temperature Adjusted to Sea Level, and average Adaptive Derate for each Engine for the previous month.

The Current Escalated Rate Per EFH for each Engine will be adjusted in accordance with the Price Adjustment Matrix based on these parameters. This rate, multiplied by the total EFH for each Engine elapsed in the prior month, will be provided to the Customer in the monthly invoice and Customer will make payment no later than [***], whichever is sooner.

6.1.1
Adaptive Derate – For the purposes of this provision, the Adaptive Derate is derived from the Take-off Derate and Climb Derate at 20,000 feet altitude for each flight using the Table 6.1 below. The average of all Adaptive Derate values for each Engine shall be used in determining the adjusted Rate Per EFH Payments in 6.1. When the actual operating parameters do not precisely equal the values on the tables, Adaptive Derate will be calculated by performing linear interpolation within the tables’ closest stated values to the actual derate values. Two-dimensional linear interpolation will be applied, as necessary, and the resultant Adaptive Derate value will be rounded to 2 decimal places.

[***]


6.1.2
Annualized Utilization - For the purposes of this provision the “annualized utilization” for a particular month will be calculated by (i) dividing the hours flown by the relevant Engine in the relevant month by the days in that particular month and (ii) multiplying that figure by three hundred and sixty-five point two five (365.25). In no event will Customer be charged Rate Per Flight Hour payments for Engines that are uninstalled, installed on Aircraft in maintenance per Customer’s maintenance program, undergoing modification or unable to be flown due to AAA restriction. Additionally, the annualized utilization calculation will be prorated for Engines that enter commercial revenue service for any day other than the 1st of the month.

6.1.3
Static Air Temperature adjusted to Sea Level shall be collected for every available takeoff using GE flight diagnostics data. If takeoff flight diagnostics data is not available for a given flight, static airport temperature and airport altitude shall be obtained from the ADM database using Customer airport city-pair data.

plus the late payment charges are received by GE in full. Payments will be applied to any late payment fees then to the oldest outstanding amounts in order of succession. If Customer fails to make payment, which is not the subject of a good faith dispute, and does not cure such failure within ten (10) business Days of a notice to cure received from GE, GE may terminate or suspend performance of all or any portion of this Agreement. In the event Customer’s account becomes delinquent or Customer’s credit status negatively changes, different terms of payment or other commercially acceptable assurances of payment may be agreed by the Parties. In the event of a bona fide dispute regarding any amount to be paid pursuant to any invoice, or any portion thereof, Customer shall within fifteen (15) business Days of receipt of such invoice give written notice to GE of such disputed invoice, or dispute portion thereof, together with reasonable substantiation of such dispute and any supporting documentation. GE and Customer shall use their respective best efforts and allocate sufficient resources to resolve such dispute within fifteen (15) business Days or as soon as practicable thereafter. In the event the Parties fail to resolve any such disputed invoice within such period, the dispute shall be resolved by designating senior managers to reach a resolution.

provided under this Agreement in accordance with the terms and pricing set forth herein; and (ii) Customer may disclose the same to its affiliates, subsidiaries and subcontractors, subject to obligations of confidentiality at least as restrictive as those in this Agreement and in no event shared with another aircraft engine manufacturer. The preceding clause will not apply to information which (1) is or becomes part of the general public knowledge or
literature otherwise than as a result of breach of any confidentiality obligation to GE, or (2) was, as shown by written records, known to the receiving Party prior to receipt from the disclosing Party, or (3) disclosure is required by government agencies or by law or court order. In the event the Agreement, or other GE information or data is required to be disclosed or filed by government agencies by law, or by court order, Customer shall notify GE at least thirty (30) days in advance of such disclosure or filing and shall cooperate fully with GE in seeking confidential treatment of sensitive terms of the Agreement or such information and data.

Intellectual Property. Nothing contained in this Agreement will convey to either Party the right to use the trademarks of the other, or convey or grant to Customer any license under any patent owned or controlled by GE

7.1      Intellectual Property

7.2      GE shall at its sole cost (i) indemnify Customer against any loss or damage incurred and (ii) handle all claims and defend any suit or proceeding brought against Customer insofar as based on a claim that any Engine or Part thereof or any Product (as defined in the GTA and which terms include without limitation any software) or any material or process used in the maintenance, repair or overhaul of any item to which this Agreement relates, without any alteration or further combination, constitutes an infringement of any Intellectual Property Right of any other party. The indemnity applies to any such claim arising in any country that is signatory to Article 27 of the Convention on International Civil Aviation signed by the United States at Chicago on December 7, 1944, in which Customer is authorized to operate or in which another airline pursuant to lawful interchange, lease or similar arrangement, operates aircraft of Customer.

7.3      Liability. GE's liability under this Section 7 is expressly conditioned upon Customer promptly notifying GE in writing and giving GE exclusive authority, information and assistance (at GE expense) for the handling, defense or settlement of any claim, suit or proceeding. In case such material or process is held in such suit to constitute infringement and the use of said material or process is enjoined, GE will, at GE's own expense and at GE's option, either, (1) settle or defend such claim or suit or proceeding arising therefrom, or (2) procure for Customer the right to continue using said material or process in the item repaired under this Agreement, or (3) replace or modify such item with an item incorporating non-infringing material or process.

7.4      Indemnification. The preceding Section 7.2 will not apply: (1) to any material or process or part thereof of Customer design or specification, or used at Customer’s direction in any repair under this Agreement, or (2) to the use of any material or process furnished under this Agreement in conjunction with any other apparatus, article, material or process. As to any material or process or use described in the preceding sentence, GE assumes no liability whatsoever for patent or copyright infringement, and Customer will, in the same manner as GE is obligated to Customer above, indemnify, defend and hold GE harmless from and against any claim or liability, including costs and expense in defending any such claim or liability in respect thereto.

7.5      Remedy . THE FOREGOING WILL CONSTITUTE CUSTOMER’S SOLE REMEDY AND GE’S SOLE LIABILITY FOR PATENT OR COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT BY ANY MATERIAL OR PROCESS AND IS NOT SUBJECT TO THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SET FORTH IN SECTION 1, “LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION.”

7.6      In this Article 10 the term “Intellectual Property Right” means any patent, copyright, trademark, design right or any other intellectual property right arising under applicable law.

8.1      LIENS

8.2      Mechanics Lien . Customer hereby acknowledges that GE has the right to file a mechanic’s lien under applicable state law in the event Customer fails to make timely payment as required in this Agreement and fails to cure such failure as provided in the Agreement.

8.3      Enforcement . If Customer fails to tender any payment owing under this Agreement and GE initiates foreclosure with respect to any Engine, pursuant to a mechanic’s lien, then Customer agrees to supply to GE all records, log books and other documentation pertaining to the maintenance condition of the Engine, and a certificate either (i) certifying that the Engine has not been involved in any Aircraft Accident or Aircraft Incident or (ii) specifying the date and facts surrounding

[***] Confidential treatment has been requested for the bracketed portions. The confidential redacted portion has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

GE Designated: -CONFIDENTIAL- 34
Subject to restrictions on the cover or first page


any Aircraft Accident or Aircraft Incident in which the Engine has been involved and the nature and extent of the damage sustained (such records, log books, certificate and other documentation referred to hereinafter as the “Engine Documents”). The Parties recognize that the failure by Customer to deliver the Engine Documents may have a material, adverse effect on the value of any Engine with respect to which foreclosure has been initiated by GE and the ability of GE to sell or lease the Engine, and that the damages GE may sustain as a result are not readily calculable.

9.1      GENERAL PROVISIONS

9.2      Assignment . This Agreement, any related purchase order or any rights or obligations hereunder may not be assigned without the prior written consent of the other Party, except that Customer’s consent will not be required for an assignment by GE to one of GE’s affiliates. In the event of any such substitution, Customer will be so advised in writing. Any assignment in contradiction of this clause will be considered null and void. Notwithstanding the above, GE may assign any of its accounts receivable under this Agreement to any party without Customer’s consent.

9.3      Governing Law, Waiver of Immunity . The Agreement will be interpreted and applied in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to its choice of law or conflict of law provisions, rules or procedures (except to the extent that the validity, perfection or creation of any lien or security interest hereunder and the exercise of rights or remedies with respect of such lien or security interest for a particular item of equipment are governed by the laws of a jurisdiction other than New York). With respect to any Customer who is incorporated or based outside the United States, to the extent that such Customer or any of its property becomes entitled at any time to any immunity on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise from any legal action, suit or proceeding of any nature, Customer hereby irrevocably waives the application of such immunity and particularly, the U.S. Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, 28 U.S.C. 1602, et. seq., insofar as such immunity relates to Customer's rights and obligations in connection with this Agreement.

9.4      Savings Clause . If any portion of this Agreement will be determined to be a violation of or contrary to any controlling law, rule or regulation issued by a court of competent jurisdiction, then that portion will be unenforceable in such jurisdiction. However, the balance of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect.

9.5      Beneficiaries . Except as herein expressly provided to the contrary, the provisions of this Agreement are for the Parties’ mutual benefit and not for the benefit of any third party.

9.6      Controlling Language . The English language will be used in the interpretation and performance of this Agreement. All correspondence and documentation arising out of or connected with this Agreement and any related purchase order(s), including Engine records and Engine logs, will be in the English language.

9.7      Non-Waiver of Rights and Remedies . Any failure or delay in the exercise of rights or remedies hereunder will not operate to waive or impair such rights or remedies. Any waiver given will not be construed to require future or further waivers.

9.8      Titles/Subtitles . The titles and subtitles given to the articles and sections of this Agreement are for convenience. They do not limit or restrict the context of the article or section to which they relate.

9.9      Currency Judgment . This is an international transaction in which the specification of United States Dollars is of the essence. No payments required to be made under this Agreement will be discharged by payments in any currency other than United States Dollars, whether pursuant to a judgment, arbitration award or otherwise.

9.10      No Agency Fees . Customer represents and warrants that no officer, employee, representative or agent of Customer has been or will be paid a fee or otherwise has received or will receive any personal compensation or consideration by or from GE in connection with the obtaining, arranging or negotiation of this Agreement or other documents entered into or executed in connection herewith.

9.11      On-Site Representative . Subject to the following conditions, GE agrees to permit one Designated Representative, from time to time during the term of this Agreement, to enter onto its premises at an Approved Repair Station for the purpose of supporting the Services on Engines. GE will furnish such Designated Representative the use of a non-exclusive workspace, including the use of a local telephone line and parking accommodations. Costs incurred by such Designated Representative, including long distance telephone charges, fax or computer charges will be the responsibility of Customer, and if charged to GE in the first instance, will be invoiced to Customer.

GE Designated: -CONFIDENTIAL- 35
Subject to restrictions on the cover or first page


Customer agrees to ensure that adequate non-exclusive work space, parking, and local telephone and facsimile access are available for the GE technical representative assigned to Customer’s facility, as applicable. Costs incurred by such GE technical representative, including without limitation, long distance telephone charges, fax, or computer charges, shall be the responsibility of GE.

9.12      No Agency . Nothing in this Agreement will be interpreted or construed to create a partnership, agency or joint venture between GE and Customer.

9.13      Entire Agreement . This Agreement, together with its Exhibits, contains and constitutes the entire understanding and agreement between the Parties hereto respecting the subject matter hereof, and supersedes and cancels all previous negotiations, agreements, representations and writings in connection herewith. This Agreement may not be released, discharged, abandoned, supplemented, modified or waived, in whole or in part, in any manner, orally or otherwise, except by a writing of concurrent or subsequent date signed and delivered by a duly authorized officer or representative of each of the Parties hereto making specific reference to this Agreement and the provisions hereof being released, discharged, abandoned, supplemented, modified or waived.

9.14      Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which counterparts will be treated as the same binding agreement, which will be effective as of the date set forth on the first page hereof, upon execution and delivery by each Party hereto to the other Party of one or more such counterparts.

9.15      Governmental Authorization . Customer will be the importer and/or exporter of record and will be responsible for timely obtaining any import license, export license, exchange permit or other required governmental authorization relating to the Engine. At Customer’s request and expense, GE will assist Customer in its application for any required
U.S. export licenses. GE will not be liable if any authorization is not renewed or is delayed, denied, revoked or restricted, and Customer will not thereby be relieved of its obligation to pay for Services performed by GE. All transported Engines will be subject to the U.S. Export Administration Regulations and/or International Traffic in Arms Regulations. Customer agrees not to dispose of U.S. origin items provided by GE other than in and to the country of ultimate destination and/or as identified in an approved government license or authorization, except as said laws and regulations may permit.

At no time shall the sum of the then outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans plus the LC Exposure exceed the Total Revolving Commitment.
(i)      Each Borrowing of a Revolving Loan shall be made from the Revolving Lenders based upon each Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage of such Revolving Loan; provided , however, that the failure of any Revolving Lender to make any Revolving Loan shall not in itself relieve the other Revolving Lenders of their obligations to lend.
(c)      Type of Borrowing . Each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(d)      Amount of Borrowing . At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $1,000,000. At the time that each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $1,000,000; provided that an ABR Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire Unused Total Revolving Commitment or that is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.02(e).

(a)      General . Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request the issuance of (and, subject to the penultimate sentence of clause (b) below, the applicable Issuing Lender shall issue) Letters of Credit in Dollars, at any time and from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period, in each case, for the Borrower’s own account or the account of any other Subsidiary of the Parent, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender and the Borrower. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, an Issuing Lender relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.
(b)      Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions . To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall either provide (i) telephonic notice promptly followed by written notice or (ii) hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Issuing Lender (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned)) to the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent (at least two (2) Business Days in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying (1) the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), (2) the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), (3) the amount of such Letter of Credit, (4) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and (5) such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the applicable Issuing Lender, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Lender’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit; provided that, to the extent such standard form (and/or any related reimbursement agreement) is inconsistent with the Loan Documents, the Loan Documents shall control. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the Revolving Extensions of Credit of such Issuing Lender shall not exceed its Revolving Commitment. No Issuing Lender (other than an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent) shall permit any such issuance, renewal, extension or amendment resulting in an increase in the amount of any Letter of Credit to occur without first obtaining written confirmation from the Administrative Agent that it is then permitted under this Agreement.
(c)      Expiration Date . Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date that is one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is one (1) Business Day prior to the earliest Revolving Facility Maturity Date with respect to the Revolving Commitments of the applicable Issuing Lender (provided that, to the extent that such Letter of Credit has been Cash Collateralized pursuant to

92544055_10



the terms of any Extension Amendment, such Revolving Commitments shall be disregarded for purposes of this clause (ii)).
(d)      [Reserved]
(e)      Reimbursement . If an Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the amount of such LC Disbursement not later than the first Business Day following the date the Borrower receives notice from the Issuing Lender of such LC Disbursement; provided that, in the case of any LC Disbursement, to the extent not reimbursed and, subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, including, without limitation, making a request in accordance with Section 2.03(a) that such payment shall be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing, as the case may be, in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing; provided , further that for purposes of determining the Revolving Loan Percentage of each Revolving Lender with respect to such ABR Revolving Borrowing, such LC Disbursement shall not be deemed to be a Revolving Extension of Credit.
(f)      Obligations Absolute . The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in Section 2.02(e) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein or herein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the applicable Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.02, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Lenders, nor the applicable Issuing Lender, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Lender; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse an Issuing Lender from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Lender’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the applicable Issuing Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction),

45
92544055_10



the applicable Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.
(g)      Disbursement Procedures . The applicable Issuing Lender shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment, whether the applicable Issuing Lender has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder and the amount of such LC Disbursement; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender with respect to any such LC Disbursement in accordance with the terms herein.

If the applicable Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse (including by a Borrowing) such LC Disbursement in full not later than the first Business Day following the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse (including by a Borrowing) such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to Section 2.02(e), then Section 2.08 shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender.
(i)      Replacement of the Issuing Lender . Any Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Lender and the successor Issuing Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.21. From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Lender, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as the context shall require.

The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over the Letter of Credit Account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent (in accordance with its usual and customary practices for investments of this type) and at the Borrower’s risk and reasonable expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account and shall be paid to the Borrower on its request provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time.

Upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent specified herein, the Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account designated by the Borrower in the applicable Loan Request; provided that ABR Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.02(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Lender.

In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Loan available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith upon written demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate otherwise applicable to such Loan. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Loan and the Borrower shall not be obligated to repay such amount pursuant to the preceding sentence if not previously repaid.

(b)      To make an Interest Election Request pursuant to this Section 2.05, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone or by hand or facsimile delivery of a written Interest Election Request by the time that a Loan Request would be required under Section 2.03(a) if the Borrower were requesting a Loan of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in substantially the same form as a Loan Request signed by the Borrower.

(d)      Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

50
92544055_10

(b)      Subject to the provisions of Section 2.08, each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at a rate per annum equal, during each Interest Period applicable thereto, to the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.

Section 2.09.      Alternate Rate of Interest .
(a)      Subject to Section 2.09(b), in the event, and on each occasion, that on the date that is two (2) Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Loan, the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower absent manifest error) that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBO Rate, the Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written, facsimile or telegraphic notice of such determination to the Borrower and the Lenders and, until the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, any request by the Borrower for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans hereunder (including pursuant to a refinancing with Eurodollar Loans and including any request to continue, or to convert to, Eurodollar Loans) shall be deemed a request for a Borrowing of ABR Loans.
(b)      In the event that the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBO Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBO Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans or such LIBO Rate shall otherwise cease to be available for use in determining interest rates for loans, then ( i ) the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the LIBO Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for loans similar to the Revolving Loans at such time, and, if and when such alternate rate of interest is established, shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable (which changes shall not include a reduction of the Applicable Margin) and (ii) such amendment pursuant to clause (i) above shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement (other than the Borrower and the Administrative Agent so long as the Administrative Agent shall have received, within five (5) Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Supermajority Lenders stating that such Supermajority Lenders approve such amendment).
Section 2.10.      Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt .

52
92544055_10



by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. The Borrower shall have the right, upon reasonable notice, to request information regarding the accounts referred to in the preceding sentence.
(d)      The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section 2.10 shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(e)      Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender and its registered assigns in a form furnished by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower.

Each such reduction of the Unused Total Revolving Commitment shall be in the principal amount not less than $1,000,000 and in an integral multiple of $1,000,000. Simultaneously with each reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitment, the Borrower shall (i) pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender the Commitment Fee accrued and unpaid on the amount of the Revolving Commitment of such Revolving Lender so terminated or reduced through the date thereof and (ii) any outstanding Letters of Credit issued by an Issuing Lender that results in the amount of such Issuing Lender’s Revolving Extensions of Credit then outstanding to exceed the Revolving Commitment (as so reduced) of such Revolving Lender shall be reduced and cancelled (or Cash Collateralized in accordance with Section 2.02(j)) as necessary to ensure the portion (if any) thereof outstanding and not Cash Collateralized does not exceed such Issuing Lender’s Revolving Commitment (as so reduced). Any reduction of the Unused Total Revolving Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be applied to reduce the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Lender on a pro rata basis.
Section 2.12.      Mandatory Prepayment of Loans; Commitment Termination; Change of Control Offer .

53
92544055_10



amount of such received Net Proceeds (solely to the extent necessary to maintain compliance with Section 6.09(a)) into the Collateral Proceeds Account that is maintained with the Administrative Agent for such purpose and subject to an Account Control Agreement and thereafter such Net Proceeds Amount shall be applied (to the extent not otherwise applied pursuant to the immediately succeeding proviso and solely to the extent the Borrower is not in compliance with Section 6.09(a)) in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.12(c); provided that (i) the Borrower may use such Net Proceeds Amount to replace the Collateral which was sold or, other than in the case of any Pledge Routes (or related Pledged Slots and Pledged Gate Leaseholds), that was the subject of a Recovery Event, with Qualified Replacement Assets or, solely in the case of any Net Proceeds Amount in respect of any Recovery Event, repair the assets which are the subject of such Recovery Event or Collateral Sale within 365 days after such deposit is made, (ii) all such Net Proceeds Amounts shall be subject to release as provided in Section 6.09(c) or, at the option of the Borrower at any time, may be applied in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.12(c), and (iii) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the amount of any such deposit may be applied by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.12(c); provided further that any release of any Net Proceeds Amount pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 2.12(a) shall be conditioned on the Borrower being in compliance with Section 6.09(a) after giving effect thereto (it being understood that the failure to be in compliance with Section 6.09(a) shall not prevent the release of any Net Proceeds Amount in connection with any repair or replacement of assets permitted hereunder so long as no decrease in the Collateral Coverage Ratio will result therefrom).
(b)      The Borrower shall prepay the Revolving Loans (without any corresponding reduction in Revolving Commitments) when and in an amount necessary to comply with Section 6.09.
(c)      Amounts required to be applied to the prepayment of Loans pursuant to Section 2.12(a) and (b) shall be applied to prepay the outstanding Revolving Loans (and to provide Cash Collateralization for the outstanding LC Exposure following the repayment of all outstanding Revolving Loans) in an amount necessary to comply with Section 6.09, in each case as directed by the Borrower. Such prepayments of Revolving Loans (and Cash Collateralization of the outstanding LC Exposure) shall not result in a corresponding permanent reduction in the Revolving Commitments. Any Cash Collateralization of outstanding LC Exposure shall be consummated in accordance with Section 2.02(j). The application of any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall be made, first , to ABR Loans and, second , to Eurodollar Loans.
(d)      If at any time the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit for any reason exceed the Total Revolving Commitment at such time, the Borrower shall prepay Revolving Loans on a pro rata basis in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess. If, after giving effect to the prepayment of all outstanding Revolving Loans, the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit exceed the Total Revolving Commitment then in effect, the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit to the extent of such excess.
(e)      Upon the Revolving Facility Termination Date applicable to any Revolving Commitment, such Revolving Commitment shall be terminated in full and the Borrower shall repay the applicable Revolving Loans in full and, except as the Administrative Agent may

54
92544055_10



otherwise agree in writing, if any Letter of Credit remains outstanding, comply with Section 2.02(j) in accordance therewith.
(f)      All prepayments under this Section 2.12 shall be accompanied by accrued but unpaid interest on the principal amount being prepaid to (but not including) the date of prepayment, plus any accrued and unpaid Fees and any losses, costs and expenses, as more fully described in Sections 2.15 hereof.
(g)      Unless otherwise prepaid in accordance with Section 2.12 or 2.13 hereof, and subject to the next sentence, upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Lender shall have the right to require the Borrower to prepay all or part of such Lender’s Loans at a prepayment price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of prepayment, to discharge all or part of such Lender’s LC Exposure (if any) and to terminate all or part of such Lender’s unused Revolving Commitment in accordance with this Section 2.12. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon the occurrence of a Change of Control if, upon direction of the Borrower, a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 2.12(g) applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Borrower and purchases all Loans validly surrendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer and the Borrower otherwise complies with this Section 2.12(g).
(i)      Within 30 days following the occurrence of any Change of Control, the Borrower shall provide a written notice to the Administrative Agent and each Lender containing the following information (such notice, a “ Change of Control Offer ”):
(A)      that a Change of Control has occurred and that such Lender has the right to require Borrower to repay such Lender’s Loans at a prepayment price in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, to discharge its LC Exposure by Cash Collateralizing such LC Exposure and to terminate such Lender’s unused Revolving Commitment;
(B)      the date of prepayment, LC Exposure discharge and unused Revolving Commitment termination (the “ Prepayment Date ”) (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed); and
(C)      a statement that any Lender wishing to have its Loans repaid, LC Exposure discharged and unused Revolving Commitment terminated pursuant to such Change of Control Offer must comply with Section 2.12(g)(ii).
A Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, and conditioned upon such Change of Control occurring, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making the Change of Control Offer.
(ii)      In order to accept any Change of Control Offer, a Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing at its address for notices contained in this Agreement prior to 12:00 noon, New York time, on the Business Day next preceding the Prepayment

55
92544055_10



Date with respect to such Change of Control Offer (the “ Election Time ”) of such Lender’s election to require the Borrower to prepay all or a specified portion of such Lender’s Loans, to discharge all or a specified portion of such Lender’s LC Exposure and to terminate all or a specified portion of such Lender’s unused Revolving Commitment pursuant to such Change of Control Offer (which, in the case of any election to require less than all of such Lender’s Loans to be prepaid, less than all of such Lender’s LC Exposure to be discharged and less than all such Lender’s unused Revolving Commitment to be terminated in such Change of Control Offer, shall be, taken together, in a minimum principal amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof) and the principal amount of such Lender’s Loans to be prepaid, the amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure to be discharged and the amount of such Lender’s unused Revolving Commitment to be terminated each shall be in the same proportion of such Lender’s total Loans, total LC Exposure and total unused Revolving Commitment, respectively), and shall specify the amount of such Lender’s Loans which such Lender requests be prepaid, amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure which such Lender requests be discharged and amount of unused Revolving Commitment to be terminated in such Change of Control Offer. In order to validly withdraw any election with respect to any Put Exposure in any Change of Control Offer, the Lender holding such Put Exposure shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing at its address for notices contained in this Agreement prior to the Election Time of such Lender’s election to withdraw such Put Exposure from such Change of Control Offer, which notification shall include a copy of such Lender’s previous notification electing to have its Put Exposure prepaid, discharged or terminated in such Change of Control Offer and shall state that such election is withdrawn. All such prepayments of such Lender’s Loans and discharge of such Lender’s LC Exposure shall automatically result in a corresponding permanent reduction in such Lender’s Revolving Commitments. The Administrative Agent shall from time to time, upon request by the Borrower, advise the Borrower of the amount of Put Exposure with respect to any Change of Control Offer.
(iii)      If as of the Election Time there is any Put Exposure as to which the election to accept the Change of Control Offer has not been withdrawn pursuant to Section 2.12(g)(ii), prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Prepayment Date the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent the aggregate amount payable with respect to such Put Exposure pursuant to Section 2.12(g)(i)(A). The Administrative Agent shall apply such funds to repay the Loans included in such Put Exposure and to Cash-Collateralize the LC Exposure included in the Put Exposure. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall recalculate the Revolving Commitment Percentage of each Lender after giving effect to such Change of Control Offer and give written notice thereof to the Borrower and each Lender.
Section 2.13.      Optional Prepayment of Loans .

56
92544055_10



Administrative Agent, in any case received by 1:00 p.m., New York City time, three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed date of prepayment and (ii) with respect to ABR Loans, upon written or facsimile notice (or notice by electronic mail) to the Administrative Agent received by 1:00 p.m., New York City time, one Business Day prior to the proposed date of prepayment; provided that ABR Loans may be prepaid on the same day notice is given if such notice is received by the Administrative Agent by 12:00 noon, New York City time; provided further , however, that (A) each such partial prepayment shall be in an amount not less than $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in the case of Eurodollar Loans and integral multiples of $100,000 in the case of ABR Loans, (B) no prepayment of Eurodollar Loans shall be permitted pursuant to this Section 2.13(a) other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto unless such prepayment is accompanied by the payment of the amounts described in Section 2.15, and (C) no partial prepayment of a Eurodollar Tranche shall result in the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans remaining outstanding pursuant to such Eurodollar Tranche being less than $1,000,000.
(b)      Any prepayments under Section 2.13(a) shall be applied to repay the outstanding Revolving Loans of the Revolving Lenders (without any reduction in the Total Revolving Commitment) as the Borrower shall specify until all Revolving Loans shall have been paid in full (plus any accrued but unpaid interest and fees thereon). All prepayments under Section 2.13(a) shall be accompanied by accrued but unpaid interest on the principal amount being prepaid to (but not including) the date of prepayment, plus any Fees and any losses, costs and expenses, as more fully described in Section 2.15 hereof.
(c)      Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of the Loans to be prepaid and, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, the Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which made, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrower to prepay such Loan by the amount and on the date stated therein; provided that the Borrower may revoke any notice of prepayment under this Section 2.13 if such prepayment would have resulted from a refinancing of any or all of the Obligations hereunder, which refinancing shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed. The Administrative Agent shall, promptly after receiving notice from the Borrower hereunder, notify each Lender of the principal amount of the Loans held by such Lender which are to be prepaid, the prepayment date and the manner of application of the prepayment.
Section 2.14.      Increased Costs .
(a)      If any Change in Law shall:
(i)      impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or Issuing Lender (except any such reserve requirement subject to Section 2.14(c)); or
(ii)      impose on any Lender or Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit issued hereunder;

57
92544055_10



and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Issuing Lender of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or Issuing Lender hereunder with respect to any Eurodollar Loan or Letter of Credit (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then, upon the request of such Lender or Issuing Lender, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b)      If any Lender or Issuing Lender reasonably determines in good faith that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts, in each case as documented by such Lender or Issuing Lender to the Borrower as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered; it being understood that to the extent duplicative of the provisions in Section 2.16, this Section 2.14(b) shall not apply to Taxes.
(c)      Solely to the extent arising from a Change in Law, the Borrower shall pay to each Lender (i) as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurodollar funds or deposits, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error) and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of the Eurodollar Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided the Borrower shall have received at least fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent, and which notice shall specify the Statutory Reserve Rate, if any, applicable to such Lender) of such additional interest or cost from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give written notice fifteen (15) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest or cost shall be due and payable fifteen (15) days from receipt of such notice.

58
92544055_10



(d)      A certificate of a Lender or Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.14 and the basis for calculating such amount or amounts shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be prima facie evidence of the amount due. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount due within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such certificate.
(e)      Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.14 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. The protection of this Section 2.14 shall be available to each Lender regardless of any possible contention as to the invalidity or inapplicability of the law, rule, regulation, guideline or other change or condition which shall have occurred or been imposed.
(f)      The Borrower shall not be required to make payments under this Section 2.14 to any Lender or Issuing Lender if (A) a claim hereunder arises solely through circumstances peculiar to such Lender or Issuing Lender and which do not affect commercial banks in the jurisdiction of organization of such Lender or Issuing Lender generally, (B) the claim arises out of a voluntary relocation by such Lender or Issuing Lender of its applicable Lending Office (it being understood that any such relocation effected pursuant to Section 2.18 is not “voluntary”), or (C) such Lender or Issuing Lender is not seeking similar compensation for such costs to which it is entitled from its borrowers generally in commercial loans of a similar size.
(g)      Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, regulations, requests, rules, guidelines or directives implemented after the Closing Date pursuant to either the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or Basel III shall be deemed to be a Change in Law; provided however , that any determination by a Lender or Issuing Lender of amounts owed pursuant to this Section 2.14 to such Lender or Issuing Lender due to any such Change in Law shall be made in good faith in a manner generally consistent with such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s standard practice.
Section 2.15.      Break Funding Payments . In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default), (b) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, or (c) the assignment (or reallocation) of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18, 2.27(d) or 10.08(d), then, in any such event, at the request of such Lender, the Borrower shall compensate such Lender for the loss, cost and expense sustained

59
92544055_10



by such Lender attributable to such event. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount reasonably determined in good faith by such Lender or Issuing Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the applicable rate of interest for such Loan (excluding, however the Applicable Margin included therein, if any), for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts (and the basis for requesting such amount or amounts) that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be prima facie evidence of the amount due. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount due within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such certificate.
Section 2.16.      Taxes .
(a)      Any and all payments by or on account of any Obligation of the Borrower or any Guarantor hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender, as determined in good faith by the applicable Withholding Agent, then (i) the sum payable by the Borrower or applicable Guarantor shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including deductions for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.16), the Administrative Agent, Lender, Issuing Lender or any other recipient of such payments (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall make such deductions and (iii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
(b)      In addition, the Borrower or any Guarantor, as applicable, shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
(c)      The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Lender, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by or on behalf of or withheld or deducted from payments owing to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any Guarantor hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.16) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment

60
92544055_10



or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or Issuing Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d)      As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment to the extent available, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(b)      If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all Obligations then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first , towards payment of Fees and expenses then due under Sections 2.19 and 10.04 payable to the Administrative Agent, (ii) second , towards payment of Fees and expenses then due under Sections 2.20, 2.21 and 10.04 payable to the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders and towards payment of interest then due on account of the Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of such Fees and expenses and interest then due to such parties and (iii) third , towards payment of (A) principal of the Revolving Loans and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, (B) any Designated Banking Product Obligations then due, to the extent such Designated Banking Product Obligations constitute “Obligations” hereunder, and (C) any Designated Hedging Obligations then due, to the extent such Designated Hedging Obligations constitute “Obligations” hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, Designated Banking Product Obligations constituting Obligations and Designated Hedging Obligations constituting Obligations then due to such parties.

(c)      Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. Nothing in this Section 2.18 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16.

The Term Loan Joinder may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.29. For the avoidance of doubt, no existing Lender will be obligated to participate in the Term Loan Facility as a Term Lender.
(c)      Equal and Ratable Benefit . The Term Loan advanced pursuant to this paragraph shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall, without limiting the foregoing, benefit equally and ratably from the security interests created by the Collateral Documents.
Section 2.30.      Illegality Event . If any Revolving Lender shall determine (which determination shall, upon notice thereof to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, be conclusive and binding on the Borrower absent manifest error) that any Change In Law makes it unlawful, or any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over such Revolving Lender asserts that it is unlawful, for such Revolving Lender to fund its Revolving Loans (or any portion thereof) as funded hereunder (any such event being hereinafter referred to as an “ Illegality Event ”), then:
(i)      such Revolving Lender shall promptly serve notice of such fact on the Borrower and the Administrative Agent;
(ii)      such Revolving Lender’s obligation to fund Revolving Loans shall be suspended until such time as the Revolving Lender may again fund and maintain such Revolving Loans.

Each of the Guarantors further agrees that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and it will remain bound upon this guaranty notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any of the Obligations. The Obligations of the Guarantors shall be joint and several. Each of the Guarantors further agrees that its guaranty hereunder is a primary obligation of such Guarantor and not merely a contract of surety.
(b)      To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Guarantors waives presentation to, demand for payment from and protest to the Borrower or any other Guarantor, and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be affected by (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent or a Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Borrower or any other Guarantor under the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of any provision hereof or thereof; (iii) any rescission, waiver, compromise, acceleration, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of any of the Loan Documents; (iv) the release, exchange, waiver or foreclosure of any security held by the Administrative Agent for the Obligations or any of them; (v) the failure of the Administrative Agent or a Lender to exercise any right or remedy against any other Guarantor; or (vi) the release or substitution of any Collateral or any other Guarantor.
(c)      To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Guarantors further agrees that this guaranty constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not just of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Administrative Agent or a Lender to any security held for payment of the Obligations or to any balance of any deposit, account or credit on the books of the Administrative Agent or a Lender in favor of the Borrower or any other Guarantor, or to any other Person.
(d)      To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Guarantors hereby waives any defense that it might have based on a failure to remain informed of the financial condition of the Borrower and of any other Guarantor and any circumstances affecting the ability of the Borrower to perform under this Agreement.

103
92544055_10



(e)      To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor’s guaranty shall not be affected by the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Obligations or any other instrument evidencing any Obligations, or by the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, or extent of any collateral therefor or by any other circumstance relating to the Obligations which might otherwise constitute a defense to this guaranty (other than payment in full in cash of the Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (other than those that constitute unasserted contingent indemnification obligations)). Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of the Lenders makes any representation or warranty in respect to any such circumstances or shall have any duty or responsibility whatsoever to any Guarantor in respect of the management and maintenance of the Obligations.

Section 9.02.      No Impairment of Guaranty . To the extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation or impairment for any reason, including, without limitation, any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, other than pursuant to a written agreement in compliance with Section 10.08 and shall not be subject to any defense or set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Obligations. To the extent permitted by applicable law, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of the Administrative Agent or a Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Agreement or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any provision hereof or thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantors or would otherwise operate as a discharge of the Guarantors as a matter of law.
Section 9.03.      Continuation and Reinstatement, etc . Each Guarantor further agrees that its guaranty hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, any Lender or any other Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or a Guarantor, or otherwise.
Section 9.04.      Subrogation . Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums to the Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder, all rights of such Guarantor against the Borrower arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation or otherwise, shall in all respects be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all the Obligations (including interest accruing on and after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy or of reorganization of an obligor whether or not post filing interest is allowed in such proceeding). If any amount shall be paid to such Guarantor for the account of the Borrower relating to the Obligations prior to payment in full of the Obligations, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and shall forthwith be paid to the

104

(b)      Upon the request of the Borrower, the guarantee of any Guarantor that is an Immaterial Subsidiary shall be promptly released; provided that (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall result therefrom and (ii) the Borrower shall have delivered a certificate of a Responsible Officer certifying that such Subsidiary is an Immaterial Subsidiary; provided further that a Subsidiary that is considered not to be an Immaterial Subsidiary solely pursuant to clause (1) of the proviso of the definition thereof shall, solely for purposes of this clause (b), be considered an Immaterial Subsidiary so long as any applicable guarantee, pledge or other obligation of such Subsidiary with respect to any Junior Secured Debt shall be irrevocably released and discharged substantially simultaneously with the release of such guarantee hereunder.
(a)      The Administrative Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to execute and deliver, at the Borrower’s expense, such documents as the Borrower or any Guarantor may reasonably request to evidence the release of the guarantee of such Guarantor provided herein.

(A)      the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment if the assignee is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund of a Lender, in each case so long as such assignee is an Eligible Assignee; and
(B)      the Borrower; provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment (I) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (II) if the assignee is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund of a Lender, in each case so long as such assignee is an Eligible Assignee; provided , further , that the Borrower’s consent will be deemed given with respect to a proposed assignment if no response is received with ten (10) Business Days after having received a written request from such Lender pursuant to this Section 10.02(b).
(ii)      Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:
(A)      any assignment of any portion of the Total Revolving Commitment, Revolving Loans and LC Exposure shall be made to an Eligible Assignee;
(B)      except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Commitment or Loans, the amount of such Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000, and after giving effect to such assignment, the portion of the Loan or Commitment held by the assigning Lender of the same tranche as the assigned portion of the Loan or Commitment shall not be less than $5,000,000, in each case unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required with respect to such assignment if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided , further , that any such assignment shall be in increments of $1,000,000 in excess of the minimum amount described above;

(E)      the assignee, if it was not a Lender immediately prior to such assignment, shall deliver (i) to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire in a form as the Administrative Agent may require and (ii) any documents required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.16.
For the purposes of this Section 10.02(b), the term “ Approved Fund ” means with respect to any Lender, any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) such Lender, (b) an Affiliate of such Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages such Lender, in each case that that has total assets in excess of $200,000,000 (or is guaranteed by an affiliate who has total assets in excess of $200,000,000).
(iii)      Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section 10.02, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Revolving Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.16 and 10.04). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.02 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section 10.02.
(iv)      The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its offices a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Revolving Commitments of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “ Register ”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Lenders and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(v)      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no assignment may be made hereunder to any Defaulting Lender or any of its subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (v).
(vi)      In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment will be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount

108
92544055_10



sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Borrower, Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and each other Revolving Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit in accordance with its Aggregate Exposure Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder becomes effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest will be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
(c)      Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire in a form as the Administrative Agent may require (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(a), 8.04 or 10.04(d), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.
(d)      (i)  Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “ Participant ”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 10.08(a) that affects such Participant. Subject to Section 10.02(d)(ii), the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.02(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the

109
92544055_10



benefits of Section 8.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to the requirements of Section 8.08 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “ Participant Register ”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under this Agreement or any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender, the Borrower, a Guarantor and the Administrative Agent shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.
(ii)      A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14 or 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant and shall be subject to the terms of Section 2.18(a). The Lender selling the participation to such Participant shall be subject to the terms of Section 2.18(b) if such Participant requests compensation or additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Sections 2.16(f), 2.16(g) and 2.16(h) as though it were a Lender.
(e)      Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender, and this Section 10.02 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
(f)      Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 10.02, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, any information relating to the Borrower or any of the Guarantors furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of the Guarantors; provided that prior to any such disclosure, each such assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant provides to the Administrative Agent its agreement in writing to be bound for the benefit of the Borrower by either the provisions of Section 10.03 or other provisions at least as restrictive as Section 10.03.
Section 10.03.      Confidentiality . Each Lender agrees to keep any information delivered or made available by the Borrower or any of the Guarantors to it confidential, in accordance with its customary procedures, from anyone other than persons employed or retained by such Lender

110
92544055_10



who are or are expected to become engaged in evaluating, approving, structuring or administering the Loans, and who are advised by such Lender of the confidential nature of such information; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Lender from disclosing such information (a) to any of its Affiliates and their respective agents and advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential) or to any other Lender or any other party hereto, (b) upon the order of any court or administrative agency, (c) upon the request or demand of any regulatory agency or authority (including any self-regulatory authority), (d) which has been publicly disclosed other than as a result of a disclosure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender which is not permitted by this Agreement, (e) in connection with any litigation to which the Administrative Agent, any Lender, or their respective Affiliates may be a party to the extent reasonably required under applicable rules of discovery, (f) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy or enforcement of rights hereunder, (g) to such Lender’s legal counsel and independent auditors, (h) on a confidential basis to any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower and its Subsidiaries or the Revolving Facility, (i) with the consent of the Borrower, and (j) to any actual or proposed participant or assignee of all or part of its rights hereunder, to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty (or the professional advisors thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations or to any credit insurance provider relating to the Borrower and its obligations, in each case, subject to the proviso in Section 10.02(f) (with any reference to any assignee or participant set forth in such proviso being deemed to include a reference to such contractual counterparty or credit insurance provider for purposes of this Section 10.03(j)). If any Lender is in any manner requested or required to disclose any of the information delivered or made available to it by the Borrower or any of the Guarantors under clauses (b) or (e) of this Section, such Lender will, to the extent permitted by law, provide the Borrower or such Guarantor with prompt notice, to the extent reasonable, so that the Borrower or such Guarantor may seek, at its sole expense, a protective order or other appropriate remedy or may waive compliance with this Section 10.03.
Section 10.04.      Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver .
(a)      (%3) The Borrower shall pay or reimburse: (A) all reasonable fees and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent (including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of Vedder Price, P.C., special counsel to the Administrative Agent) associated with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, and the preparation, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof requested by the Borrower (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated); and (B) in connection with any enforcement of the Loan Documents, (i) all fees and out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent (including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of a single counsel for the Administrative Agent) incurred during the continuance of a Default, (ii) all such fees and expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, which may be separate counsel) incurred during the continuance of an Event of Default; and (C) all reasonable, documented, out-of-pocket costs, expenses, taxes, assessments and other charges (including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel for the Administrative

111
92544055_10



Agent) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with any filing, registration, recording or perfection of any security interest contemplated by any Loan Document or incurred in connection with any release or addition of Collateral after the Closing Date.
(ii)      All payments or reimbursements pursuant to the foregoing clause (a)(i) shall be paid within thirty (30) days of written demand together with back-up documentation supporting such reimbursement request.
(b)      The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “ Indemnitee ”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding brought by a third party, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto and whether or not any such claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding is brought by the Borrower, its equity holders, its Affiliates, its creditors or any other Person (including any investigating, preparing for or defending any such claims, actions, suits, investigations or proceedings, whether or not in connection with pending or threatened litigation in which such Indemnitee is a party), relating to (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by any Issuing Lender to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit) or (iii) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to, or asserted against, the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any of its related Indemnitees (as defined below), and such Indemnitee shall repay the Borrower the amount of any expenses previously reimbursed by the Borrower in connection with any such loss, claims, damages, expenses or liability to such Indemnitee and, to the extent not repaid by any of them, such Indemnitee’s Related Parties not a party to this Agreement. This Section 10.04(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than Taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-Tax claim. For purposes of this Section 10.04(b), a Person shall be considered a “related” Indemnitee with respect to an Indemnitee if such Person is an Affiliate or employer of such Indemnitee, a director, officer, employee, agent, or servant of such Indemnitee or any such Affiliate.
(c)      In case any action or proceeding shall be brought or asserted against an Indemnitee in respect of which indemnity is sought against the Borrower under the provisions of any Loan Document, such Indemnitee shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing and the Borrower shall, if requested by such Indemnitee or if the Borrower desires to do so, assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee

112
92544055_10



but only if (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (ii) such action or proceeding does not involve any risk of criminal liability or material risk of material civil money penalties being imposed on such Indemnitee. The Borrower shall not enter into any settlement of any such action or proceeding that admits any Indemnitee’s misconduct or negligence. The failure to so notify the Borrower shall not affect any obligations the Borrower may have to such Indemnitee under the Loan Documents or otherwise other than to the extent that the Borrower is materially adversely affected by such failure. The Indemnitees shall have the right to employ separate counsel in such action or proceeding and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnitees unless: (i) the Borrower has agreed to pay such fees and expenses, (ii) the Borrower has failed to assume the defense of such action or proceeding and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitees or (iii) the Indemnitees shall have been advised in writing by counsel that under prevailing ethical standards there may be a conflict between the positions of the Borrower and the Indemnitees in conducting the defense of such action or proceeding or that there may be legal defenses available to the Indemnitees different from or in addition to those available to the Borrower, in which case, if the Indemnitees notify the Borrower in writing that they elect to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Borrower, the Borrower shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action or proceeding on behalf of the Indemnitees; provided , however , that the Borrower shall not, in connection with any one such action or proceeding or separate but substantially similar or related actions or proceedings in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be responsible hereunder for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one such firm of separate counsel, in addition to any local counsel. The Borrower shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action or proceeding effected without the written consent of the Borrower (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
(d)      To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 10.04, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, such portion of the unpaid amount equal to such Lender’s Aggregate Exposure Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought); provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such.
(e)      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 special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that, nothing in this clause (e) shall relieve the Borrower of any obligation it may have to indemnify any Indemnitee against special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages pursuant to Section 10.04(c).
Section 10.05.      Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process .

(b)      Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall, to the extent permitted by law, be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.
(c)      Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in Section 10.05(b).

(d)      Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
Section 10.06.      No Waiver . No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder or any of the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. All remedies hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law.
Section 10.07.      Extension of Maturity .

(i)      each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (A) increase the Commitment of any Lender or extend the termination date of the Commitment of any Lender (it being understood that a waiver of an Event of Default shall not constitute an

114
92544055_10



increase in or extension of the termination date of the Commitment of a Lender), or (B) reduce the principal amount of any Loan, any reimbursement obligation in respect of any Letter of Credit issued by it, or the rate of interest payable thereon (provided that only the consent of the Required Lenders (or in the case of any such reimbursement obligation, the applicable Issuing Lender) shall be necessary for a waiver of default interest referred to in Section 2.08), or extend any date for the payment of interest or Fees hereunder or reduce any Fees payable hereunder or extend the final maturity of the Borrower’s obligations hereunder or (C) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2.17(b); and
(ii)      all of the Lenders (A) amend or modify any provision of this Agreement which provides for the unanimous consent or approval of the Lenders or which alters the ratable treatment of Obligations under the Loan Documents, (B) amend this Section 10.08 that has the effect of changing the number or percentage of Lenders that must approve any modification, amendment, waiver or consent or modify the percentage of the Lenders required in the definitions of Required Lenders and Supermajority Lenders, (C) amend the definition of Aggregate Exposure Percentage or Borrowing Base or (D) release all or substantially all of the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document (except to the extent contemplated by Section 6.09 on the date hereof or by the terms of the Collateral Documents), or release all or substantially all of the Guarantors (except to the extent contemplated by Section 9.05);
provided further , that any Collateral Document may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified with the consent of the applicable Grantor and the Administrative Agent (i) to add assets (or categories of assets) to the Collateral covered by such Collateral Document, as contemplated by the definition of Additional Collateral set forth in Section 1.01 hereof or (ii) to remove any asset or type or category of asset (including after-acquired assets of that type or category) from the Collateral covered by such Collateral Document to the extent the release thereof is permitted by Section 6.09(c).
(b)      No such amendment or modification shall adversely affect the rights and obligations of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender hereunder without its prior written consent.
(c)      No notice to or demand on the Borrower or any Guarantor shall entitle the Borrower or any Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances. Each assignee under Section 10.02(b) shall be bound by any amendment, modification, waiver, or consent authorized as provided herein, and any consent by a Lender shall bind any Person subsequently acquiring an interest on the Loans held by such Lender. No amendment to this Agreement shall be effective against the Borrower or any Guarantor unless signed by the Borrower or such Guarantor, as the case may be.
(d)      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.08(a), (i) in the event that either the Borrower requests that this Agreement be modified or amended in a manner which would require the unanimous consent of all of the Lenders or the consent of all Lenders directly and adversely affected thereby and, in each case, such modification or amendment is agreed to by the Required Lenders, then the Borrower may replace any non-consenting Lender in accordance with an assignment pursuant to Section 10.02 (and such non-consenting Lender shall

115
92544055_10



reasonably cooperate in effecting such assignment); provided that such amendment or modification can be effected as a result of the assignment contemplated by such Section (together with all other such assignments required by the Borrower to be made pursuant to this clause (i)); (ii) no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that the Commitment and the outstanding Loans or other extensions of credit held or deemed held by any Defaulting Lender shall be excluded for a vote of the Lenders hereunder requiring any consent of the Lenders); and (iii) if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five (5) Business Days after written notice thereof to the Lenders.

(g)      In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 7.01 or Section 10.08(a), following the consummation of any Extension pursuant to Section 2.28, no modification, amendment or waiver (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any forbearance agreement entered into with respect to this Agreement) shall limit the right of any non-extending Revolving Lender (each, a “ Non-Extending Lender ”) to enforce its right to receive payment of amounts due and owing to such Non-Extending Lender on the Revolving Maturity Date applicable to the Revolving Commitments of such Non-Extending Lenders without the prior written consent of Non-Extending Lenders that would constitute Required Lenders if the Non-Extending Lenders were the only Lenders hereunder at the time.
(h)      In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.08(a), any amendment made in accordance with Section 2.09(b) to reflect an alternate rate of interest established pursuant to such Section shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement (other than such parties as required pursuant to such Section 2.09(b)), and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 10.04 hereof, each party shall bear its own costs and expenses ( provided , that the Borrower shall pay or reimburse Administrative Agent for its reasonable costs and expenses) in connection with any such amendment.

All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder.

The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Borrower and the Guarantors, on the other hand, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Borrower, its stockholders or its affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise the Borrower, its stockholders or its affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to the Borrower except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of the Borrower, its management, stockholders, affiliates, creditors or any other Person. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto.

Section 10.17.      Intercreditor Agreements . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if at any time the Administrative Agent shall enter into any intercreditor agreement pursuant to and as permitted by the terms of this Agreement and that is

118
92544055_10



reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (any such intercreditor agreement, an “ Intercreditor Agreement ”) and such Intercreditor Agreement shall remain outstanding, the rights granted to the Secured Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the lien and security interest granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be subject to the terms and conditions of such Intercreditor Agreement.

Section 10.18.      Registrations with International Registry .

(i)      a reduction, in full or in part, in the principal amount, or outstanding amount due (including any accrued but unpaid interest) in respect of any such liability;
(ii)      a conversion of all, or part of, any such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership that may be issued to, or conferred on, it; and
