PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
The Company
Overview of the Business
flyExclusive is a premier owner/operator of jet aircraft to provide private jet passengers experiences dedicated to surpassing expectations for quality, convenience, and safety. flyExclusive’s mission is to be the world’s most vertically integrated private aviation company, offering a full range of industry services.
Since 2015, flyExclusive has grown from two LGM/partner owned jets to over 100 owned and leased aircraft, 4 of which are pursuant to the Volato Agreement (as defined below), and is currently the fifth largest private jet operator in the United States (based on 2024 flight hours). We operate a selected fleet of Cessna Citation, Gulfstream, HondaJet, and Challenger aircraft to service customers flying domestically and internationally. As one of the nation’s largest Citation operators, flyExclusive has curated a versatile fleet of Citation CJ3 / CJ3+, Citation Excel / XLS / XLS+, Citation Encore+, Citation Sovereign, Citation X, and Challenger 350 aircraft. The introduction of Gulfstream aircraft into flyExclusive’s fleet in 2020 opened up the opportunity for flyExclusive to expand its footprint internationally. flyExclusive’s purposeful focus on the acquisition of a limited number of manufacturers’ aircraft enables flyExclusive to operate and maintain fewer types of aircraft than most competitors. Our maintenance crews are more efficient given the recurrent nature of their work, which in turn improves dispatch availability of our fleet.
Operations are centered at flyExclusive’s corporate headquarters in Kinston, North Carolina. Located within the North Carolina Global TransPark (NCGTP), flyExclusive leases 145,000 square feet of office and hangar space from the NCGTP’s 2,500-acre multimodal industrial park, which boasts an 11,500-foot runway. Kinston is within two hours of approximately 70% of flyExclusive flights. So, our location is ideal for organizational synergy and for cost-effective, strategic growth.
In the second half of 2020, flyExclusive launched its jet club, which earned the Robb Report’s “Best of the Best” in 2022. With its efficient pricing model and bespoke, customer-centered approach, the jet club has experienced significant growth, offering multi-tiered membership options.
Consistent with flyExclusive's vertical integration mission in the private aviation industry, flyExclusive officially launched its Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (“MRO”) operation in the third quarter of 2021, offering interior and exterior refurbishment services to third parties in addition to maintaining its own fleet. flyExclusive began installing avionics in its mid-size fleet in second quarter of 2022. This significantly reduced aircraft-on-ground due to avionics-related issues, which was the primary reason for grounded aircraft. flyExclusive plans to install avionics in its entire fleet on an as-needed basis.
Management’s vision for a capital-efficient, asset-light channel to complete customer offerings became a reality in the second quarter of 2022 with the introduction of flyExclusive’s fractional ownership program. Fractional members purchase or place a deposit towards a fractional share and have immediate access to flyExclusive’s light, mid, and super-mid fleets through separate operating deposits. Under the fractional program flyExclusive realizes a profit on the sale, amortized over the life of the contract, while maintaining control of the aircraft and providing a superior customer experience with no monthly management fees, no blackout dates, and minimal peak days.
With the introduction of the fractional program in the second quarter of 2022, flyExclusive ordered five CJ3+ aircraft from Textron Aviation with options to purchase up to 25 additional CJ3+. Following that, in the fourth quarter of 2022, flyExclusive entered into an aircraft purchase agreement to purchase up to 14 additional aircraft, expanding flyExclusive’s order into the mid and super-mid aircraft categories, anticipating delivery from 2024 to 2027. All of these aircraft are expected to be operated under flyExclusive’s fractional ownership program. Also, in the third quarter of 2022, flyExclusive opened a new 48,000 square foot hangar, dedicated to its growing MRO division, that substantially expanded its avionics, maintenance, paint, and interior work.
On September 2, 2024, the Company entered into an Aircraft Management Services Agreement (the “Volato Agreement”) with Volato Group, Inc. (“Volato”), the largest HondaJet operator in the United States. Pursuant to the Volato Agreement, Volato engaged the Company as an independent contractor to provide certain aircraft
1
management services and agreed that the Company will be the exclusive provider of such services to Volato. Under the terms of the Volato agreement, the Company will manage flight operations, sales, and expenses of Volato’s fleet.
On October 1, 2025, the Company and Volato entered into a Fourth Amendment to Aircraft Management Services Agreement (the “Amendment”). Pursuant to the Amendment, Volato granted the Company the right to purchase from Volato certain aviation-related assets and assume certain obligations of Volato related to aviation-related assets (the “flyExclusive Option”), and the Company granted Volato the right to sell to the Company certain aviation-related assets and assign certain obligations of Volato (the “Volato Option,” and collectively with the flyExclusive Option, the “Asset Options”). The Volato Option is exercisable by Volato beginning on the effective date of the Amendment and ends on the earlier of (i) the end of the Term (defined below), (ii) the day immediately prior to the beginning of the exercise period of the flyExclusive Option, and (iii) the completion of the Merger Option. The flyExclusive Option is exercisable by the Company beginning six months following the completion of any change of control of Volato and will expire simultaneously with the end of the Term (as defined below). The Volato Merger (as defined below), if consummated, would constitute a change of control under the Amendment, triggering the beginning of the exercise date of the flyExclusive Option as March 31, 2026. In addition, the term of the Volato Agreement (the “Term”) was extended to the sooner of (i) September 1, 2026, (ii) the consummation of the asset purchase agreement subject to an exercise of either of the Asset Options or (iii) the consummation of the merger (or any substantially similar transaction) of Volato and M2i Global, Inc. (the “Volato Merger”) pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger among them, dated as of July 28, 2025, subject to the exercise of the Merger Option.
flyExclusive’s Values:
The culture at flyExclusive is based on a commitment to safety that permeates flyExclusive's values:
Strategy
flyExclusive’s vertical integration mission is to strategically grow into a full-service private aviation company with essentially all its operations based in Kinston, North Carolina. Key initiatives include the following:
2
flyExclusive’s charter business has evolved from primarily ad hoc non-contractual wholesale business prior to 2020 to a focus on serving retail customers. flyExclusive’s wholesale and retail ad hoc customers are non-contractual and have decreased as a percentage of total charter revenue with the increase of flyExclusive’s jet club, Fractional, and Partner contracts. The evolution of flyExclusive’s charter business from non-contractual wholesale operations to servicing contractual retail customers provides flyExclusive with significant customer and revenue visibility.
Most flight revenue is pre-paid and is recognized upon completion of the flight. Contractual programs outline pricing premiums for peak and high demand days, and for reservation notices within the agreed to number of days.
flyExclusive’s required flight notice periods for contractual members and partners are purposefully designed to be longer in length than industry standards. The increased notice period allows flyExclusive to dispatch its aircraft more efficiently. Flights are scheduled logistically according to geographical location to minimize repositioning of aircraft and maximize revenue-producing legs. flyExclusive leverages this multi-day lead time to optimize scheduling, reduce the need to use third-party affiliate aircraft, and maintain a lean customer-to-aircraft ratio. We fly 98%+ of our customers on the flyExclusive fleet, establishing what we believe is the industry-leading customer experience.
Competitive Advantages and Strengths
We believe flyExclusive has an optimal business model that differentiates flyExclusive from its competitors. The following points outline management’s view on flyExclusive’s key competitive advantages and strengths:

We were formed as a Delaware corporation for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. As such, we were a blank check company. On December 27, 2023, we merged with LGM Enterprises, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company (“LGM”). LGM was formed on October 3, 2011. LGM became fully operational in April of 2015 upon the expiration of the non-compete agreement between our Chief Executive Officer, James Segrave, Jr. and Delta Airlines. flyExclusive is a premier owner/operator of jet aircraft to provide private jet passengers experiences dedicated to surpassing expectations for quality, convenience, and safety. Our subsidiary, Exclusive Jets, LLC, was formed as a limited liability company in North Carolina on June 4, 2013.
Our address is 2860 Jetport Road, Kinston, North Carolina 28504 and our telephone is (252) 208-7715.

RISK FACTORS
Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before purchasing our securities, you should consider carefully the risks and uncertainties described below and in the section entitled “Risk Factors” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as filed with SEC on March 24, 2025, and in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as filed with the SEC on May 13, 2025, both of which are incorporated in this prospectus by reference in their entirety, as well as in subsequently filed SEC reports and any prospectus supplement, together with all of the other information included in this prospectus. These risks and uncertainties are not the only risks and uncertainties we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us, or that we currently view as immaterial, may also impair our business. If any of the risks or uncertainties described in our SEC filings or any additional risks and uncertainties actually occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow could be materially and adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of our securities could decline and you might lose all or part of your investment. Please also refer to the section entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
The issuance of shares of our Class A Common Stock upon the closing of the Proposed Merger of FlyX Merger Sub, Inc. and Jet.AI Merger Sub will dilute your ownership.
The issuance of shares of our Class A Common Stock upon the closing of the Proposed Merger will cause dilution to the ownership of our then existing holders of Class A Common Stock. The number of shares to be issued to Jet.AI stockholders at closing will be based on the closing exchange ratio set out in the merger agreement which will be based on, in part, SpinCo’s net cash at closing and the volume weighted average closing sale price of flyExclusive’s Class A Common Stock for the 30 trading days ending three days prior to the closing date, subject to certain adjustments. Assuming that SpinCo’s net cash at closing is $12,000,000 and that the volume weighted average closing sale price of flyExclusive’s Class A Common Stock for the 30 trading days ending 3 days prior to the closing date is $3.34 per share, which was the closing sale price on December 16, 2025, we would expect to issue an aggregate of 4,131,737 shares of our Class A Common Stock. The actual amount of shares issued will depend on the Class A Common Stock price and SpinCo’s net cash, which could result in fewer or more shares being issued.
We do not expect to declare any dividends in the foreseeable future.
We do not anticipate declaring any cash dividends to holders of our Class A Common Stock in the foreseeable future. Consequently, investors may need to rely on sales of their shares of our Class A Common Stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize any future gains on their investment.
Substantial future sales of our Class A Common Stock by existing stockholders could cause the market price of our Class A Common Stock to decline.
In addition to the 530,381 shares of Class A Common Stock registered under the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, we have registered an aggregate of 96,543,976 shares of our Class A Common Stock for resale by existing stockholders that represent approximately 90% of our total shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding on a fully diluted basis as of November 30, 2025 (without including shares of our Class A Common Stock offered for sale by this prospectus), including shares owned by Thomas James Segrave Jr., our CEO and Chairman, and EG Sponsor LLC. When the shares of our Class A Common Stock that are offered by this prospectus are included with the above-referenced 96,543,976 shares already registered, all shares of our Class A Common Stock that could be sold by existing stockholders, including shares owned by Mr. Segrave and EG Sponsor LLC, those shares of Class A Common Stock represent approximately 91% of our total shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding on a fully diluted basis as of November 30, 2025. There are no lock-up restrictions on the shares of Class A Common Stock offered by this prospectus.
6
After the registration statement for the resale of the shares offered hereby is effective and until such time that it or any other registration statement for the resale of our Class A Common Stock is no longer effective, the resale of those securities will be permitted pursuant to the respective registration statements. The resale, or expected or potential resale, of a substantial number of our shares of Class A Common Stock in the public market could adversely affect the market price for our Class A Common Stock and make it more difficult for you to sell your shares of Class A Common Stock at such times and at such prices that you deem desirable. Furthermore, we expect that because of the large number of securities registered pursuant to these registration statements, those existing selling stockholders will continue to offer the securities covered by the applicable registration statement for a significant period of time, the precise duration of which cannot be predicted. Accordingly, the adverse market and price pressures resulting from an offering pursuant to any effective registration statement may continue for an extended period of time. In addition, the market reaction to such sales of our Class A Common Stock could also negatively affect the price of our publicly traded warrants.
7
USE OF PROCEEDS
All of the shares of Class A Common Stock that are being offered for resale by the Selling Stockholders will be sold for their respective accounts. As a result, all proceeds from such sales will go to the Selling Stockholders and we will not receive any proceeds from the resale of those shares of Class A Common Stock by the Selling Stockholders.
The Selling Stockholders will pay any underwriting fees, discounts, selling commissions, stock transfer taxes and certain legal expenses incurred by such Selling Stockholders in disposing of their shares of Class A Common Stock, and we will bear all other costs, fees and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of such securities covered by this prospectus, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, NYSE American listing fees and fees and expenses of our counsel and our independent registered public accountants.
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
The following description summarizes the material terms of our Class A Common Stock as of the date of this prospectus. Because it is only a summary, it does not contain all the information that may be important to you. For a complete description of our capital stock, you should refer to our Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Charter”), and our Bylaws, as may be amended (the “Bylaws”), and to the provisions of applicable Delaware law.
Authorized and Outstanding Capital Stock
Our Charter authorizes the issuance of 325,000,000 shares, of which 200,000,000 shares are shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, 100,000,000 shares are shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 25,000,000 shares are shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. We have authorized the issuance of 25,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and 29,737 shares of Series B Preferred Stock.
The number of authorized shares of Class A Common Stock will automatically increase by the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon (x) the exchange of all outstanding common units (“LGM Common Units”) of LGM Enterprises, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company (“LGM”), for Class A Common Stock, as a result of redemptions pursuant to the applicable provisions of Article 11 of the Amended and Restated Operating Agreement of LGM (including for this purpose any Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of any options, warrants or similar rights to acquire Class A Common Stock) and (y) in connection with the exercise of all outstanding options, warrants, exchange rights (other than redemptions pursuant to clause (x)), conversion rights or similar rights for Class A Common Stock. The number of authorized shares of Class B Common Stock will automatically increase by the number of shares of Class B Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of all outstanding options, warrants, exchange rights, conversion rights or similar rights for Class B Common Stock.
As of November 30, 2025, there were 20,757,668 shares of Class A Common Stock, publicly traded warrants to purchase 2,519,869 shares of Class A Common Stock, private placement warrants to purchase 4,333,333 shares of Class A Common Stock and 59,930,000 shares of Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding, and 59,930,000 LGM Common Units issued and outstanding (excluding LGM Common Units held by our Company), 25,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding and 29,737 shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding.
Common Stock
Voting
Pursuant to our Charter, holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock will vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to the stockholders for their vote or approval, except as required by applicable law. Holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to the stockholders for their vote or approval.
Notwithstanding such voting rights, except as otherwise required by law, holders of Common Stock shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to our Charter (including any certificate of designation filed with respect to any series of preferred stock) that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding series of preferred stock if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together as a class with the holders of one or more
8
other such series, to vote thereon by law or pursuant to our Charter (including any certificate of designation filed with respect to any series of preferred stock).
Dividends
The holders of Class A Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends, as and if declared by our Board out of legally available funds. With respect to stock dividends, holders of Class A Common Stock must receive Class A Common Stock.
The holders of Class B Common Stock will not have any right to receive dividends other than stock dividends (as described in (A) below) consisting of shares of Class B Common Stock, in each case paid proportionally with respect to each outstanding share of Class B Common Stock.
In no event will any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, combination of stock, reclassification or recapitalization (each, a “Stock Adjustment”) be declared or made on any class of Common Stock unless a corresponding Stock Adjustment for all other classes of Common Stock at the time outstanding is made in the same proportion and the same manner (unless the holders of shares representing a majority of the voting power of any such other class of Common Stock (voting separately as a single class) waive such requirement in advance and in writing, in which event no such Stock Adjustment need be made for such other class of Common Stock). Notwithstanding such prohibition, we may (A) declare a stock dividend on the Class A Common Stock only in the event that such stock dividend is made in connection with the issuance of LGM Common Units by LGM to us in exchange for additional capital contributions made by us to LGM, and (B) declare a stock split or stock dividend in connection with the repurchase of shares of Class A Common Stock such that after giving effect to such repurchase and subsequent stock split or stock dividend there shall be outstanding an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock as were outstanding prior to such repurchase and subsequent stock split or stock dividend, in each of case (A) and (B), without any corresponding Stock Adjustment to the other classes of Common Stock.
Liquidation or Dissolution
Upon our liquidation or dissolution, the holders of all classes of Common Stock are entitled to their respective par value, and the holders of Class A Common Stock will then be entitled to share ratably in those of our assets that are legally available for distribution to stockholders after payment of liabilities and subject to the prior rights of any holders of preferred stock then outstanding. Other than their par value, the holders of Class B Common Stock will not have any right to receive a distribution upon a liquidation or dissolution of the Company.
Redemption, Transferability and Exchange
Subject to the terms of our Charter, the members of LGM (other than our Company) may from time to time cause LGM to redeem any or all of their LGM Common Units in exchange for, at our election (subject to certain exceptions), either cash (based on the market price for a share of the Class A Common Stock) (the “Existing Equityholder Cash Out”) or shares of Class A Common Stock in an amount equal to the number of LGM Common Units being redeemed (the “Existing Equityholder Share Settlement”). At our election, such transaction may be effectuated via a direct exchange of Class A Common Stock or cash by our Company for the redeemed LGM Common Units (an “Existing Equityholder Direct Exchange”).
Our Charter provides that (a) if a holder of Class B Common Stock exercises either the Existing Equityholder Cash Out, or the Existing Equityholder Share Settlement or Existing Equityholder Direct Exchange, then the number of shares of Class B Common Stock held by such holder equal to the number of LGM Common Units so redeemed, cashed out or exchanged will automatically be cancelled by the Company for no consideration.
We may not issue Class B Common Stock such that after the issuance of Class B Common Stock the holder of such stock does not hold an identical number of LGM Common Units, as applicable, and shares of Class B Common Stock.
A holder of Class B Common Stock may transfer or assign shares of Class B Common Stock (or any legal or beneficial interest in such shares) (directly or indirectly, including by operation of law) only to a Permitted Transferee (as defined in the Operating Agreement) of such holder, and only if such holder also simultaneously transfers an equal number of such holder’s LGM Common Units to such Permitted Transferee in compliance with

the Operating Agreement. Any purported transfer of shares of Class B Common Stock in violation of the preceding sentence shall be null and void and shall not be recognized by our Company, our Company’s transfer agent or the Secretary of our Company.
In the event that a share of Class A Common Stock is issued as a result of any redemption or Existing Equityholder Direct Exchange of a LGM Common Units outstanding as of the effective date of the Operating Agreement, a share of Class B Common Stock held by the holder of such LGM Common Units in its sole discretion will automatically and without further action on the part of our Company or the holder thereof be transferred to our Company for no consideration and thereupon we shall promptly take all necessary action to cause such share to be retired, and such share thereafter may not be reissued by us.
Other Provisions
None of the Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock has any pre-emptive or other subscription rights.
Preferred Stock
We are authorized to issue up to 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Our Board will be authorized, subject to limitations prescribed by Delaware law and our Charter, to determine the terms and conditions of the preferred stock, including whether the shares of preferred stock will be issued in one or more series, the number of shares to be included in each series and the powers (including the voting power), designations, preferences and rights of the shares. Our Board also will be authorized to designate any qualifications, limitations or restrictions on the shares without any further vote or action by the stockholders. The issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company and may adversely affect the voting and other rights of the holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, which could have a negative impact on the market price of the Class A Common Stock.

We cannot advise you as to whether the Selling Stockholders will in fact sell any or all of such shares of Class A Common Stock.
Selling Stockholder information for each additional Selling Stockholder, if any, will be set forth by a prospectus supplement to the extent required prior to the time of any offer or sale of such Selling Stockholder’s shares pursuant to this prospectus. To the extent permitted by law, a prospectus supplement may add, update, substitute, or change the information contained in this prospectus, including the identity of each Selling Stockholder and the number of shares of Class A Common Stock registered on its behalf. A Selling Stockholder may sell or otherwise transfer all, some or none of such shares of Class A Common Stock in this offering. See “Plan of Distribution.”
11
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The Selling Stockholders, which, as used herein includes donees, pledgees, transferees, distributees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of our Class A Common Stock received after the date of this prospectus from a Selling Stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer, distribute or otherwise dispose of their shares of Class A Common Stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which shares of our Class A Common Stock are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices.
The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of their shares of Class A Common Stock:
The Selling Stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some shares of our Class A Common Stock owned by them and, if a Selling Stockholder defaults in the performance of its secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell such shares of Class A Common Stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment or supplement to this prospectus amending the list of the Selling
12
Stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as the Selling Stockholders under this prospectus. The Selling Stockholders also may transfer shares of our Class A Common Stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
In connection with the sale of shares of our Class A Common Stock, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of our Class A Common Stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares of our Class A Common Stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge shares of our Class A Common Stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities that require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares of our Class A Common Stock offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
The aggregate proceeds to the Selling Stockholders from the sale of shares of our Class A Common Stock offered by them will be the purchase price of such shares of our Class A Common Stock less discounts or commissions, if any. The Selling Stockholders reserve the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of share of our Class A Common Stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from any offering by the Selling Stockholders.
The Selling Stockholders also may in the future resell a portion of our Class A Common Stock in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule, or pursuant to other available exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit they earn on any resale of shares of our Class A Common Stock may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. If any Selling Stockholder is an “underwriter” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, then the Selling Stockholder will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. Underwriters and their controlling persons, dealers and agents may be entitled, under agreements entered into with us and the Selling Stockholders, to indemnification against and contribution toward specific civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
To the extent required, our Class A Common Stock to be sold, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agent, dealer or underwriter, and any applicable discounts, commissions, concessions or other compensation with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.
To facilitate the offering of shares of our Class A Common Stock offered by the Selling Stockholders, certain persons participating in the offering may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of our Class A Common Stock. This may include over-allotments or short sales, which involve the sale by persons participating in the offering of more shares of Class A Common Stock than were sold to them. In these circumstances, these persons would cover such over-allotments or short positions by making purchases in the open market or by exercising their over-allotment option, if any. In addition, these persons may stabilize or maintain the price of our Class A Common Stock by bidding for or purchasing shares of Class A Common Stock in the open market or by imposing penalty bids, whereby selling concessions allowed to dealers participating in the offering may be reclaimed if shares of Class A Common Stock sold by them are repurchased in connection with stabilization transactions. The effect of these transactions may be to stabilize or maintain the market price of our Class A Common Stock at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. These transactions may be discontinued at any time.
13
We have agreed to maintain the effectiveness of this registration statement until all of the 432,099 shares of Class A Common Stock offered by Volato have been sold under this registration statement, Rule 144 under the Securities Act or another available exemption under the Securities Act. We have agreed to pay all expenses in connection with the registration of shares of our Class A Common Stock to be offered in this offering, including the legal expenses of the Selling Stockholders. The Selling Stockholders will pay, on a pro rata basis, any fees, discounts, selling commission and stock transfer taxes relating to their offer and sale of the Class A Common Shares hereunder.
Selling Stockholders may use this prospectus in connection with resales of shares of our Class A Common Stock. This prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement will identify the Selling Stockholders, the terms of our Class A Common Stock and any material relationships between us and the Selling Stockholders. Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be underwriters under the Securities Act in connection with shares of our Class A Common Stock they resell and any profits on the sales may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Unless otherwise set forth in a prospectus supplement, the Selling Stockholders will receive all the net proceeds from the resale of shares of our Class A Common Stock.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Subsection (a) of Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”) empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or who is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person’s conduct was unlawful.
Subsection (b) of Section 145 empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person acted in any of the capacities set forth above, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.
Section 145 further provides that to the extent a director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 145, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith; that indemnification provided for by Section 145 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the indemnified party may be entitled; and the indemnification provided for by Section 145 shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of such person’s heirs, executors and administrators. Section 145 also empowers the corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liabilities under Section 145.
Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL provides that a corporation’s certificate of incorporation may contain a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, provided that such provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a
II-1
director (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
Additionally, our Charter limits the liability of our directors to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, and our Bylaws provide that we will indemnify them to the fullest extent permitted by such law. We have entered into and expect to continue to enter into agreements to indemnify our directors, executive officers and other employees as determined by our Board of Directors. Under the terms of such indemnification agreements, we are required to indemnify each of our directors and officers, to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the state of Delaware, if the basis of the indemnitee’s involvement was by reason of the fact that the indemnitee is or was our director or officer or was serving at our request in an official capacity for another entity. We must indemnify our officers and directors against all reasonable fees, expenses, charges and other costs of any type or nature whatsoever, including any and all expenses and obligations paid or incurred in connection with investigating, defending, being a witness in, participating in (including on appeal), or preparing to defend, be a witness or participate in any completed, actual, pending or threatened action, suit, claim or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, or establishing or enforcing a right to indemnification under the indemnification agreement. The indemnification agreements also require us, if so requested, to advance all reasonable fees, expenses, charges and other costs that such director or officer incurred, provided that such person will return any such advance if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification by us. Any claims for indemnification by our directors and officers may reduce our available funds to satisfy successful third-party claims against us and may reduce the amount of money available to us.

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (ii) and (iii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.
II-5
(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
