Forward Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “expects,” “plans,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “indicates,” “remains,” “believes,” “estimates,” “forecast,” “guidance,” “outlook,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “goals,” “targets” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions. Additionally, forward-looking statements include statements that do not relate solely to historical facts, such as statements which identify uncertainties or trends, discuss the possible future effects of current known trends or uncertainties, or which indicate that the future effects of known trends or uncertainties cannot be predicted, guaranteed, or assured. Forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions, and are based on information currently available to us. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements due to many factors, including, without limitation, the risk associated with the execution of our strategic operating plans in the near-term and long-term; our extremely competitive industry; risks related to the long-term nature of our fleet order book; volatility in fuel prices and availability of fuel; increased maintenance costs associated with fleet age; costs associated with salaries, wages and benefits; risks associated with a potential material reduction in the rate of interchange reimbursement fees; risks associated with doing business internationally; our reliance on high daily aircraft utilization; our dependence on the New York metropolitan market; risks associated with extended interruptions or disruptions in service at our focus cities; risks associated with airport expenses; risks associated with seasonality and weather; our reliance on a limited number of suppliers for our aircraft, engines, and our Fly-Fi® product; risks related to new or increased tariffs imposed on commercial aircraft and related parts imported from outside the United States; the outcome of legal proceedings with respect to our Northeast Alliance with American Airlines Group Inc. and our wind-down of the Northeast Alliance; risks associated with cybersecurity and privacy, including information security breaches; heightened regulatory requirements concerning data security compliance; risks associated with reliance on, and potential failure of, automated systems to operate our business; our inability to attract and retain qualified crewmembers; our being subject to potential unionization, work stoppages, slowdowns or increased labor costs;


reputational and business risk from an accident or incident involving our aircraft; risks associated with damage to our reputation and the JetBlue brand name; our significant amount of fixed obligations and the ability to service such obligations; our substantial indebtedness and impact on our ability to meet future financing needs; financial risks associated with credit card processors; restrictions as a result of our participation in governmental support programs under the CARES Act, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, and the American Rescue Plan Act; risks associated with seeking short-term additional financing liquidity; failure to realize the full value of intangible or long-lived assets, causing us to record impairments; risks associated with disease outbreaks or environmental disasters affecting travel behavior; compliance with environmental laws and regulations, which may cause us to incur substantial costs; the impacts of federal budget constraints or federally imposed furloughs; impact of global climate change and legal, regulatory or market response to such change; increasing attention to, and evolving expectations regarding, environmental, social and governance matters; changes in government regulations in our industry; acts of war or terrorism; and changes in global economic conditions or an economic downturn leading to a continuing or accelerated decrease in demand for air travel.
Given the risks and uncertainties surrounding forward-looking statements, you should not place undue reliance on these statements. You should understand that many important factors, in addition to those discussed or incorporated by reference in this Current Report on Form 8-K, could cause our results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. Further information concerning these and other factors is contained in JetBlue’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including but not limited to, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. In light of these risks and uncertainties, the forward-looking events discussed in this Current Report on Form 8-K might not occur. Our forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. Other than as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

TERMINATION AGREEMENT
THIS TERMINATION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into effective as of March 1, 2024, by and among JetBlue Airways Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Sundown Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), and Spirit Airlines, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” and, together with Parent and Merger Sub, the “Parties”).
All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings assigned to them in that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 28, 2022 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Parties.
For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Parties hereby agree as follows:
1.Termination of Merger Agreement. Effective immediately upon the execution and delivery by the Parties of this Agreement, and in accordance with Section 7.1(a) of the Merger Agreement, the Parties hereby terminate the Merger Agreement, including all schedules and exhibits thereto, and agree to abandon the transactions contemplated thereby; provided that Sections 5.18(e) and 5.18(f), including any defined terms referred to therein, of the Merger Agreement (the “Surviving Provisions”) shall continue in effect in accordance with their terms.
2.Termination Payment. Not later than 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on March 5, 2024, Parent will pay or cause to be paid to the Company the amount of $69,000,000 (sixty-nine million US dollars) (the “Termination Payment”) in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with Company’s wire instructions set forth on Section 7.2(g) of the Company Disclosure Schedule. The payment of the Termination Payment shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Company, its Affiliates and its Representatives against Parent and any of its Representatives and Affiliates for any loss or damage suffered as a result of the failure of the Merger or for a breach of, or failure to perform under, the Merger Agreement (including all schedules and exhibits thereto) or otherwise or in respect of any oral representation made or alleged to have been made in connection therewith, and upon payment of such amount, none of Parent, Merger Sub or their respective Representatives or Affiliates shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of the Merger Agreement (including all schedules and exhibits thereto), whether in equity or at law, in contract, in tort or otherwise, except in respect of the Surviving Provisions.
3.Mutual Release. Subject only to the payment of the amount contemplated by Section 2 of this Agreement, each of the Parties, on behalf of itself and each of its respective past, present or future assigns, officers, directors, affiliates, subsidiaries, members, managers, predecessors in interest and successors (the “Releasors”) does to the fullest extent permitted by Law, hereby fully release, quitclaim, discharge and hold harmless each other and their respective past, present or future assigns, officers, directors, employees, affiliates, subsidiaries, parents, shareholders, members, managers, attorneys, accountants, representatives, advisors, agents, predecessors in interest and successors (the “Releasees”) of and from any and all claims, demands, damages, actions, causes of action or liability of every kind or nature whatsoever for, on account of or growing out of any matters pertaining to, relating to or arising out of (a) the Merger Agreement (including all schedules and exhibits thereto) and the transactions contemplated therein or thereby (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the negotiation thereof and all due diligence activities undertaken in connection therewith) and (b) any public statements made prior to the date hereof relating to the foregoing (collectively, “Claims”). Nothing in this Section 3 shall (i) apply to any action by any Party to enforce the rights and obligations pursuant to this Agreement or the Surviving Provisions or (ii) constitute a release by any Party for any Claim arising under this Agreement or in respect of the Surviving Provisions.
4.Covenant Note to Sue. Each of Parent and the Company on behalf of itself and its Releasors covenants not to bring any Claim before any court, arbitrator, or other tribunal in any jurisdiction, whether as a claim, a cross claim, or counterclaim, in respect of the Merger Agreement (other than in respect of the Surviving Provisions). Any Releasee may plead this Agreement as a complete bar to any such Claim brought in


derogation of this covenant not to sue. The covenants contained in this Section 4 shall become effective on the date hereof and shall survive this Agreement indefinitely regardless of any statute of limitations.
5.Non-solicitation. For a period of six months following the date hereof, neither Parent nor the Company will, and each of them will cause its respective Affiliates not to, solicit or cause to be solicited for employment any officer, employee or consultant of the other Party (or any of its Affiliates) who was involved in the integration planning process engaged in by the Parties in respect of the proposed Merger; provided that this Section 5 shall not prevent either Party (or any of its Affiliates) from (x) soliciting for employment any person who has not been employed by the other Party (or any of its Affiliates) or, in the case of consultants, engaged as a consultant by the other Party, as the case may be, for at least six months prior to such solicitation or (y) engaging in any general solicitation of employment not specifically directed at employees of the other Party (or any of its Affiliates), or, in the case of consultants, consultant of the other Party. If any of the time or activity limitations set forth herein are determined to be unreasonable by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction, the Parties agree to the modification and/or reduction of such time or activity limitations (including the imposition of such a limitation if it is missing) to such a period or scope of activity as said court or tribunal shall deem reasonable under the circumstances.
6.Non-Disparagement. For a period of six months following the date of this Agreement, except as required by applicable Law or the rules or regulations of any Governmental Entity or by the order of any court of competent jurisdiction, none of the Parties shall, directly or indirectly, make any public statements or any private statements to third parties (in each case, oral or written) in respect of the Merger Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby that could reasonably be understood as disparaging the other Parties or their respective affiliates.
7.Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Trial by Jury. This Agreement will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to laws that may be applicable under conflicts of laws principles (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Chancery Court”), or, if the Chancery Court lacks subject matter jurisdiction of the action or proceeding, any Federal court of the United States of America sitting in Delaware, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment relating thereto, and each of Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agrees not to commence any such action or proceeding, except in such court, (ii) agrees that any claim in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such court, (iii) 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 such action or proceeding in any such court and (iv) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

Each Party irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 8.3 of the Merger Agreement.

IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 7.
8.Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties and supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the Parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.
9.Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction.

In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the Parties agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the maximum extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term and the overall purpose of this Agreement as expressly described herein.
10.Notices. The provisions of Section 8.3 of the Merger Agreement are incorporated herein by reference.
11.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, and by the different Parties in separate counterparts, each of which when executed will be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together will constitute one and the same agreement.

Exhibit 99.1
JetBlue Announces Termination of Merger Agreement with Spirit
Positions JetBlue to focus on organic strategy and return to profitability
NEW YORK, March 4, 2024 – JetBlue (NASDAQ: JBLU) today announced that it has reached an agreement with Spirit Airlines (NYSE: SAVE) to terminate their July 2022 merger agreement.
Although both companies continue to believe in the procompetitive benefits of the combination, JetBlue and Spirit mutually agreed that terminating is the best path forward for both companies as required closing conditions, including receiving necessary legal and regulatory approvals, were unlikely to be met by the merger agreement’s outside date of July 24, 2024.
“We believed this merger was worth pursuing because it would have unleashed a national low-fare, high-value competitor to the Big Four airlines,” said Joanna Geraghty, chief executive officer, JetBlue. “We are proud of the work we did with Spirit to lay out a vision to challenge the status quo, but given the hurdles to closing that remain, we decided together that both airlines’ interests are better served by moving forward independently. We wish the very best going forward to the entire Spirit team.”
Under the agreement, JetBlue will pay Spirit $69 million and the termination resolves all outstanding matters related to the transaction and under which any claims between them will be mutually released.
“JetBlue has a strong organic plan and unique competitive advantages, including a beloved brand, a unique value proposition, and high-value geographies,” Geraghty continued. “We have already begun to advance our plan to restore profitability. We look forward to sharing more on our progress in the coming months.”
As outlined on the company’s fourth quarter earnings call, JetBlue is taking decisive action to return to sustained profitability and drive shareholder value. As part of this work, the company is refocusing on its core strengths – deepening its network relevance in proven geographies and better segmenting its product offerings to enhance its competitive position – while delivering meaningful cost savings.
To date, JetBlue has identified multiple near-term revenue initiatives for 2024, including increased distribution and partnerships, expanded loyalty program functionality, network initiatives, and ancillary initiatives, which will deliver over $300 million in revenue benefits. JetBlue also remains on track to deliver $175-200 million in cost savings from its structural cost program and $75 million in maintenance savings from its fleet modernization, as well as incremental savings from targeted fixed cost base reductions, positioning the company to approach breakeven operating margins in 2024. These initiatives are just the starting point as JetBlue rebuilds its long-term organic strategy with a renewed focus on driving sustained profitability for its crewmembers and investors.
JetBlue will hold an Investor Day on Thursday, May 30, 2024, to provide additional detail on its long-term strategy and ongoing revenue and cost initiatives. Further information regarding Investor Day will be shared with analysts and investors in the coming weeks.
