__________________ (a)The Company, through an affiliate, entered into the pre-delivery deposit payment (“PDP”) facility with Citibank, N.A., as facility agent, in December 2014 (as amended from time to time, the “PDP Financing Facility”). The PDP Financing Facility is collateralized by the Company’s purchase agreement for Airbus A320neo family aircraft deliveries (see Note 9) through the term of the facility, which extends through December 2026. The total available capacity of the PDP Financing Facility is $365 million. Interest is paid every 90 days based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus a margin for each individual tranche. The PDP Financing Facility consists of separate loans for each PDP aircraft. Each separate loan matures upon the earlier of (i) delivery of that aircraft to the Company by Airbus, (ii) the date one month following the last day of the scheduled delivery month of such aircraft and (iii) if there is a delay in delivery of aircraft, depending on the cause of the delivery delay, up to six months following the last day of the scheduled delivery month of such aircraft. The PDP Financing Facility will be repaid periodically according to the preceding sentence, with the PDP Financing Facility maturing in December 2026. (b)Represents a note with a commercial bank related to the Company’s headquarters. In June 2024, the Company’s previous note related to its headquarters reached maturity and a final payment of $16 million was made to cover all unpaid principal, accrued unpaid interest and other amounts due. Subsequent to this final payment, the Company entered into a new $6 million note with a different commercial bank maturing in June 2031. Under the terms of the new outstanding note, the Company is required to make regular monthly payments on principal and unpaid interest. On the maturity date, one final balloon payment will be made to cover all unpaid principal, accrued unpaid interest and other amounts due. Interest on the new note will accrue on the unpaid principal balance at a fixed annual rate of 6.79%. (c)The Company entered into an agreement with Barclays in 2003 which, as amended, provides for joint marketing, grants certain benefits to Cardholders and allows Barclays to market using the Company’s customer database, through 2029. Cardholders earn miles under the FRONTIER Miles program and the Company sells miles at agreed-upon rates to Barclays and earns fees from Barclays for the acquisition, retention and use of the co-branded credit card by Cardholders. In addition, Barclays will pre-purchase miles if the Company so requests and meets certain conditions precedent. The pre-purchased miles facility amount available to the Company is to be reset on January 15 of each calendar year through, and including, January 15, 2028, based on the aggregate amount of fees payable by Barclays to the Company on a calendar year basis and subject to certain other conditions, up to an aggregate maximum facility amount of $200 million. The Company pays interest on a monthly basis, which is based on a one-month Effective Federal Funds Rate (“EFFR”) plus a margin. Beginning March 2028, the facility is scheduled to be repaid in 12 equal monthly installments. (d)As a result of the Company’s participation in the payroll support programs offered by the U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”), the Company obtained a series of 10-year, low-interest loans from the Treasury (collectively, the “PSP Promissory Notes”) that are due between 2030 and 2031. The PSP Promissory Notes include an annual interest rate of 1.00% for the first five years and the SOFR plus 2.00% in the final five years, with bi-annual interest payments. The loans can be prepaid at par at any time without incurring a penalty. In connection with the term loan facility entered into with the Treasury on September 28, 2020, which was repaid in full on February 2, 2022, and the PSP Promissory Notes, the Company issued warrants to purchase 3,117,940 shares of FGHI common stock at a weighted-average price of $6.95 per share. These warrants will expire between May 2025 and June 2026. No warrants have been exercised as of June 30, 2024. Cash payments for interest related to debt were $17 million and $12 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company has caused standby letters of credit and surety bonds to be issued to various airport authorities and vendors that are collateralized by a portion of the Company’s property and equipment and, as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company did not have any outstanding letters of credit that were drawn upon. As of June 30, 2024, future maturities of debt are payable as follows (in millions):

These changes are reflected in the table below and reflect scheduled aircraft received in July 2024:
