 DISCLAIMER  Forward-Looking Statements:This presentation contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be identified by words such as “expects,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “will,” or words of similar meaning and include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the outlook for FLY’s future business, operations and financial performance, including the expected benefits of the AirAsia portfolio transactions (the “Transactions”); whether and when the Transactions will be consummated; the amount of cash and stock consideration to be paid by FLY; the type, amount and terms of the acquisition financing to be obtained by FLY; and, the amount of any fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Transactions. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and assumptions, which are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict.

Further information on the factors and risks that may affect FLY’s business is included in filings FLY makes with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) from time to time, including its Annual Report on Form 20-F and its Reports on Form 6-K.
