Item 8.01    Other Events.

This morning, JetBlue Airways Corporation (“JetBlue”) filed a Form 8K stating that JetBlue yesterday informed Spirit that “certain conditions to closing required by the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 28, 2022, among JetBlue, Spirit and Sundown Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation, and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of JetBlue (the “Merger Agreement”) may not be satisfied prior to the outside dates set forth in the Merger Agreement (and also informed Spirit that accordingly the Merger Agreement may be terminable on and after January 28, 2024). JetBlue continues to evaluate its options under the Merger Agreement. Unless and until such time as the Merger Agreement is terminated pursuant to its terms, JetBlue will continue to abide by all of its obligations under the Merger Agreement.”

Spirit believes there is no basis for terminating the Merger Agreement. Spirit will continue to abide by all of its obligations under the Merger Agreement, and it expects JetBlue to do the same.

The information included under this Item 8.01 is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, except as may be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
