TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 8.01 Other Events.
Attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, which is incorporated herein by reference, is a copy of
certain slides used in discussions with certain holders of Mesa Air Group Inc.s (the Company)
Senior Convertible Notes due 2023 (the 2023 Notes) and Senior Convertible Notes due 2024 (the
2024 Notes and, collectively with the 2023 Notes, the Notes), and that may be used in
subsequent presentations to such noteholders. In connection with such discussions, the noteholders
entered into non-disclosure agreements with the Company, which require the Company to disclose the
attached information at this time.
The attached material was provided to certain of the holders to illustrate the possible
financial impact of a termination of the Delta Connection Agreement between the Company, Delta Air
Lines, Inc. (Delta), and the Companys wholly owned subsidiary, Freedom Airlines, Inc. (the DAL
Contract) on the Company and the Companys efforts to mitigate such impact.
The forecasts set forth in the attached material assume that the Companys flying under the
DAL Contract would end in July 2008, which would only occur if we were to receive an unfavorable
ruling in the Companys ongoing litigation with Delta, and that the Company would be responsible
for continuing expenses related to aircraft lease expenses, certain fixed maintenance obligations,
furlough and personnel redundancy costs, retraining costs for flight crews and other general costs
and expenses related to providing services under the DAL Contract.
The attached materials also provide a forecast of potential mitigating actions and relief
provided by the holders of the 2023 Notes, aircraft financing parties and other vendors. In
general, these forecasts include a deferral of payment obligations under the 2023 Notes, return of
aircraft and related parts and reduction in certain maintenance obligations with respect to the
returned aircraft.
This
Current Report on Form 8-K, including the forecasts set forth in exhibit 99.1, contains various forward-looking statements that
are based
on assumptions made by and information currently available to management. The Company can
give
no assurance that such assumptions will prove to have been correct
or, if they prove to be correct, will have the impact on the Company
described in such forecasts. Such statements and forecasts are subject to certain
risks,
uncertainties and assumptions, many of which are beyond the control
of the Company. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize,
or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated,
projected
or expected. The Company does not intend to update these forward-looking statements prior to its next filing with the
Securities and
Exchange Commission.
