It is the intent of the parties that payments under this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Code, and, accordingly, to interpret, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement to be in compliance therewith. If the Executive notifies the Company in writing (with specificity as to the reason therefore) that the Executive believes that any provision of this Agreement (or of any payment of compensation under this Agreement) would cause the Executive to incur any additional tax or interest under Section 409A of the Code, and the Company concurs with such belief or the Company (without any obligation whatsoever to do so) independently makes such determination, the parties shall, in good faith, reform such provision to attempt to comply with Section 409A through good faith modifications to the minimum extent reasonably appropriate to conform with Section 409A. To the extent that any provision hereof is modified by the parties to attempt to comply with Section 409A of the Code, such modification shall be made in good faith and shall, to the maximum extent reasonably possible, maintain the original intent of the applicable provision without violating the provisions of Section 409A.

Air T, Inc. Executive Employment Agreement Page C-1 Exhibit A Incentive Compensation Executive shall be eligible to receive the following incentive compensation: 1. Quarterly Incentive Compensation. Executive shall be eligible for quarterly incentive compensation as follows: a. Amount. The calculation for each quarterly award will be based on a 1-5 rating for Executive’s performance in the preceding quarter. Each rating will represent a certain percentage bonus amount calculated off of that quarter’s Base Salary (e.g. Base Salary divided by four then multiplied by the bonus percentage associated with the rating given for that quarter). The ratings-based percentages are as follows: i. Rating of 1: 0% ii. Rating of 2: 10-30% (at CEO’s discretion) iii. Rating of 3: 50% iv. Rating of 4: 70% v. Rating of 5: 90%+ (at CEO’s discretion) b. Payment Timing. Each quarterly award, once calculated, will be payable in six equal installments during each of the subsequent quarters, starting with the immediately following quarter so long as Executive has met the eligibility requirements set forth in the Employment Agreement and this Exhibit A. c. Financial Distress. The Company reserves the right to pause the payments of any otherwise due and owing quarterly incentive compensation in the event the Company is in significant financial distress that would objectively impair the Company’s existing debt obligations, as determined in the sole discretion of the Company.

In other words, Executive must be employed in good standing on the respective payment date, as set forth in Section 1 of this Exhibit A in order to be eligible to receive the respective payment, unless Executive’s termination of employment prior to a respective payment date was due to: (i) Company’s termination without Cause, as defined in Section 4.1.b of the Employment Agreement, (ii) Executive’s termination due to disability, as defined in Section 4.1.c of the Employment Agreement or (iii) Executive’s death. Executive agrees that in the event that Executive’s termination of employment prior to a respective payment date was due to: (i) Company’s termination without Cause, as defined in Section 4.1.b of the Employment Agreement, (ii) Executive’s termination due to disability, as defined in Section Docusign Envelope ID: A7968947-A012-4029-8C72-0D8DCA295392

Air T, Inc. Executive Employment Agreement Page C-2 4.1.c of the Employment Agreement or (iii) Executive’s death, and Executive (or Executive’s estate, as applicable) is entitled to a future payment under this Exhibit A, such payment will be made expressly contingent upon Executive (or Executive’s estate, as applicable) signing and not rescinding a general form of release of claims, in a form substantially similar to that as is set forth in Exhibit B to the Employment Agreement by and between Executive and the Company.
