Why you received this proxy statement. You are viewing or have received these proxy materials because the Board is soliciting your proxy to vote your shares at the Annual Meeting. This proxy statement includes information that we are required to provide to you under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and that is designed to assist you in voting your shares of Common Stock.

Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials. As permitted by SEC rules, flyExclusive is making this proxy statement and its 2023 Annual Report available to its stockholders electronically via the Internet. On or about October 23, 2024, we mailed to our stockholders an Internet Notice containing instructions on how to access this proxy statement and our 2023 Annual Report and vote online. If you received an Internet Notice by mail, you will not receive a printed copy of the proxy materials in the mail unless you specifically request them. Instead, the Internet Notice instructs you on how to access and review all of the important information contained in the proxy statement and 2023 Annual Report. The Internet Notice also instructs you on how you may submit your proxy over the Internet. If you received an Internet Notice by mail and would like to receive a printed copy of our proxy materials, you should follow the instructions for requesting such materials contained on the Internet Notice.

Printed Copies of Our Proxy Materials. If you received printed copies of our proxy materials, then instructions regarding how you can vote are contained on the proxy card included in the materials.

Householding. SEC rules permit us to deliver a single set of proxy materials to one address shared by two or more of our stockholders. This delivery method is referred to as "householding" and can result in significant cost savings. To take advantage of this opportunity, we have delivered only one set of proxy materials to multiple stockholders who share an address, unless we received contrary instructions from the impacted stockholders prior to the mailing date. We agree to deliver promptly, upon written or oral request, a separate copy of the proxy materials, as requested, to any stockholder at the shared address to which a single copy of those documents was delivered.

If your household received a single set of proxy materials this year, but you would prefer to receive your own copy, please contact Broadridge Householding Department, by calling their toll-free number, 1-866-540-7095 or by writing to: Broadridge, Householding Department, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717.

Questions and Answers About the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders

Who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?

The Record Date for the Annual Meeting is October 11, 2024. You are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting only if you were a holder of record of Common Stock at the close of business on that date, or if you hold a valid proxy for the Annual Meeting. Each outstanding share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote for all matters before the Annual Meeting. At the close of business on the Record Date, there were 18,199,586 shares of Class A common stock and 59,930,000 shares of Class B common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

What is the difference between being a "record holder" and holding shares in "street name"?

A record holder holds shares in his or her name. If you are a record holder, your set of proxy materials has been sent to you directly by the Company.

Shares held in "street name" means shares that are held in the name of a bank or broker on a person's behalf. Proxy materials have been forwarded to you by that organization if your shares are held in "street name."

Am I entitled to vote if my shares are held in "street name"?

Yes. If your shares are held by a bank or a brokerage firm, you are considered the "beneficial owner" of those shares held in "street name." If your shares are held in street name, these proxy materials are being provided to you by your bank or brokerage firm, along with a voting instruction card if you received printed copies of the proxy materials. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your bank or brokerage firm how to vote your shares, and the bank or brokerage firm is required to vote your shares in accordance with your instructions. If your shares are held in street name and you would like to vote at the Annual Meeting, you may visit www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/FLYX2024 and enter the 16-digit control number included in the voting instruction card provided to you by your bank or brokerage firm. If you hold your shares in street name and you did not receive a 16-digit control number, you may need to log in to your bank or brokerage firm's website to access the meeting and vote. Instructions should also be provided on the voting instruction card provided by your bank or brokerage firm.

How many shares must be present to hold the Annual Meeting?

A quorum must be present at the Annual Meeting for any business to be conducted. The presence at the Annual Meeting online or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote on the Record Date will constitute a quorum.

Who can attend the Annual Meeting?

flyExclusive has decided to hold the Annual Meeting entirely online this year. You may attend the Annual Meeting online only if you are a flyExclusive stockholder who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, or if you hold a valid proxy for the Annual Meeting. You may attend and participate in the Annual Meeting by visiting the following website: www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/FLYX2024. To attend and participate in the Annual Meeting, you will need the 16-digit control number included in your Internet Notice, on your proxy card or on the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials. If your shares are held in "street name," you may visit www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/FLYX2024 and enter the 16-digit control number included in the voting instruction card provided to you by your bank or brokerage firm. If you hold your shares in street name and you did not receive a 16-digit control number, you may need to log in to your bank or brokerage firm's website to access the meeting and vote. Instructions should also be provided on the voting instruction card provided by your bank or brokerage firm.

What if a quorum is not present at the Annual Meeting?

If a quorum is not present at the scheduled time of the Annual Meeting, either (i) the person presiding over the meeting or (ii) if directed to be voted on by the person presiding over the meeting, a majority in voting power of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, present electronically or represented by proxy, shall have power to adjourn the meeting from time to time until a quorum is present or represented.

What does it mean if I receive more than one Internet Notice or more than one set of proxy materials?

It means that your shares are held in more than one account at the transfer agent and/or with banks or brokers. Please vote all of your shares. To ensure that all of your shares are voted, for each Internet Notice or set of proxy materials, please submit your proxy by phone, via the Internet, or, if you received printed copies of the proxy materials, by signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the enclosed envelope.

Mailed proxy cards must be received by December 1, 2024 in order to be counted at the Annual Meeting. To participate in the Annual Meeting, including to vote via the Internet or telephone or electronically during the meeting, you will need the 16-digit control number included on your Internet Notice, on your proxy card or on the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials.

Whether or not you expect to attend the Annual Meeting online, we urge you to vote your shares as promptly as possible to ensure your representation and the presence of a quorum at the Annual Meeting. If you submit your proxy, you may still decide to virtually attend the Annual Meeting and vote your shares electronically.

Beneficial Owners of Shares Held in "Street Name." If your shares are held in "street name" through a bank or broker, you will receive instructions on how to vote from the bank or broker. You must follow their instructions in order for your shares to be voted. Internet and telephone voting also may be offered to stockholders owning shares through certain banks and brokers. If your shares are held in "street name," you may visit www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/FLYX2024 and enter the 16-digit control number included in the voting instruction card provided to you by your bank or brokerage firm. If you hold your shares in street name and you did not receive a 16-digit control number, you may need to log in to your bank or brokerage firm's website to access the Annual Meeting and vote. Instructions should also be provided on the voting instruction card provided by your bank or brokerage firm.

What if I lose my 16-digit control number?

If you lose your 16-digit control number, you may join the Annual Meeting as a "Guest," but you will not be able to vote, ask questions or access the list of stockholders as of the Record Date. You will need to obtain your own Internet access if you choose to attend the Annual Meeting online and/or vote over the Internet.

Can I change my vote after I submit my proxy?

Yes. If you are a registered stockholder, you may revoke your proxy and change your vote:

•by submitting a duly executed proxy bearing a later date;

•by granting a subsequent proxy through the Internet or telephone;

•by giving written notice of revocation to the Secretary of flyExclusive (the "Secretary") prior to the Annual Meeting; or

•by voting online during the Annual Meeting by going to www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/FLYX2024.

Your most recent proxy card or Internet or telephone proxy is the one that is counted. Your attendance at the Annual Meeting by itself will not revoke your proxy unless you give written notice of revocation to the Secretary before your proxy is voted or you vote online at the Annual Meeting.

If your shares are held in street name, you may change or revoke your voting instructions by following the specific directions provided to you by your bank or broker, or you may vote during the Annual Meeting by obtaining your 16-digit control number from your bank or broker or otherwise voting through your bank or broker.

Who will count the votes?

A representative of Carideo Group, our inspector of election, will tabulate and certify the votes.

What if I do not specify how my shares are to be voted?

If you submit a proxy but do not indicate any voting instructions, the persons named as proxies will vote in accordance with the recommendations of the Board. The Board's recommendations are indicated on page 7 of this proxy statement, as well as with the description of each proposal in this proxy statement.

Table of Contents

Do I have any dissenters' or appraisal rights with respect to any of the matters to be voted on at the Annual Meeting?

No. Delaware law does not provide stockholders any dissenters' or appraisal rights with respect to the matters to be voted on at the Annual Meeting.

Will any other business be conducted at the Annual Meeting?

Why hold a virtual meeting?

A virtual meeting enables increased stockholder attendance and participation because stockholders can participate from any location around the world. You will be able to attend the Annual Meeting online and submit your questions and vote by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/FLYX2024 and by following the instructions above. Stockholders will have similar rights and opportunities to participate at the Annual Meeting as they would at an in-person meeting.

What if during the check-in time or during the Annual Meeting I have technical difficulties or trouble accessing the virtual meeting website?

We encourage stockholders to log into the virtual Annual Meeting beginning 15 minutes prior to the start of the Annual Meeting to test their Internet connectivity. We will have technicians ready to assist you with any technical difficulties you may have accessing the virtual meeting website, and the information for assistance will be located on www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/FLYX2024.

Will there be a question and answer session during the Annual Meeting?

As part of the Annual Meeting, we will hold a live Q&A session, during which we intend to answer questions submitted online during the meeting that are pertinent to the Company and the meeting matters, for up to 15 minutes following the completion of the Annual Meeting. Only stockholders that have accessed the Annual Meeting as a stockholder (rather than a "Guest") by following the procedures outlined above in "Who can attend the Annual Meeting?" will be permitted to submit questions during the Annual Meeting.

How many votes are required for the approval of the proposals to be voted upon and how will abstentions and broker non-votes be treated?


Proposal	Votes required	Effect of Votes Withheld / Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes
Proposal 1: Approval, as required by NYSE American rules, of the issuance of shares of Class A common stock upon (i) the exercise of warrants to purchase shares of the Company's Class A common stock and (ii) the conversion of shares of the Company's Series B convertible preferred stock, in each case in the event such issuance would be in excess of 20% of the Class A common stock outstanding on March 4, 2024	The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the votes cast.	Abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect.
Proposal 2: Election of Directors	The plurality of the votes cast. This means that seven nominees receiving the highest number of affirmative "For" votes will be elected as directors.	Votes withheld and broker non-votes will have no effect.
Proposal 3: Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm	The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the votes cast.	Abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect. We do not expect any broker non-votes on this proposal.

What is a "vote withheld" and an "abstention" and how will votes withheld and abstentions be treated?

A "vote withheld," in the case of Proposal 2, or an "abstention," in the case of Proposal 1 and Proposal 3, represents a stockholder's affirmative choice to decline to vote on a proposal. Votes withheld and abstentions are counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. Votes withheld and abstentions are not considered to be votes cast, therefore votes withheld have no effect on Proposal 2 and abstentions have no effect on Proposal 1 or Proposal 3.

What are broker non-votes and do they count for determining a quorum?

Generally, broker non-votes occur when shares held by a broker in "street name" for a beneficial owner are not voted with respect to a particular proposal because the broker (i) has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner and (ii) lacks discretionary voting power to vote those shares. A broker is entitled, but not obligated, to vote shares held for a beneficial owner on routine matters, such as Proposal 3 (the ratification of the appointment of Elliott Davis as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm), without instructions from the beneficial owner of those shares. On the other hand, absent instructions from the beneficial owner of such shares, a broker is not entitled to vote shares held for a beneficial owner on non-routine matters, such as Proposal 1 (approval of issuance of shares of Class A common stock, as required by NYSE American rules) and Proposal 2 (election of directors). Broker non-votes count for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present. Broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect on Proposal 1 or Proposal 2. We do not expect broker non-votes for Proposal 3.

Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?

We plan to announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting and we will report the final results in a Current Report on Form 8-K, which we intend to file with the SEC within four business days after the Annual Meeting.

Who is paying for this proxy solicitation?

The accompanying proxy is solicited by and on behalf of our Board, whose Notice of Annual Meeting is attached to this proxy statement, and the entire cost of our solicitation will be borne by us. In addition to the use of mail, proxies may be solicited by personal interview, telephone, e-mail and facsimile by our directors, officers and other employees who will not be specially compensated for these services. We will also request that brokers, nominees, custodians and other fiduciaries forward soliciting materials to the beneficial owners of shares held by the brokers, nominees, custodians and other fiduciaries. We will reimburse these persons for their reasonable expenses in connection with these activities.

Proposals to be Voted on

Proposal 1: To approve, as required by NYSE American rules, the issuance of shares of Class A common stock upon (i) the exercise of warrants to purchase shares of the Company's Class A common stock and (ii) the conversion of shares of the Company's Series B convertible preferred stock, in each case in the event such issuance would be in excess of 20% of the Class A common stock outstanding on March 4, 2024.

Our Board is seeking stockholder approval, as required by the NYSE American Listed Company Manual Rule 713 ("NYSE Rule 713"), for the issuance of shares to EnTrust Emerald (Cayman) LP ("EnTrust Emerald") upon (i) the exercise of a warrant issued by us to EnTrust Emerald on March 4, 2024 (the "March 2024 Warrant") and warrants issued by us to EnTrust Emerald in August 2024 (the "August 2024 Warrants"), each to purchase shares of our Class A common stock, and (ii) the conversion of shares of our Series B convertible preferred stock (the "Series B Preferred Stock") issued to EnTrust Emerald in August 2024.

The March 2024 Warrant grants EnTrust Emerald the right to purchase shares of Class A common stock in an aggregate amount equal to 1.5% of the Company's outstanding Class A common stock on the date of exercise on a fully diluted basis (the "Share Count Cap") at an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The March 2024 Warrant may not be exercised for a number of shares of Class A common stock having an aggregate value in excess of $11,250,000.

The August 2024 Warrants grants to EnTrust Emerald and EG Sponsor LLC ("EG Sponsor" and, collectively with EnTrust Emerald, "EnTrust") the right to purchase up to 5,000,000 shares of Class A common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share.

Each share of Series B Preferred Stock will automatically convert into a number of shares of the Company's Class A common stock on the earlier of December 31, 2025 and the closing of the Subsequent Capital Raise (as defined in the Series B Certificate of Designation) (the "Automatic Conversion Date") at an initial conversion price of $5.00 ("Conversion Price"), subject to adjustment as provided in the Series B Certificate of Designation (including adjustments due to anti-dilution provisions). In the event that the VWAP on the Trading Day (each as defined in the Series B Certificate of Designation) immediately preceding the Automatic Conversion Date is less than the Conversion Price, the Conversion Rate (as defined in the Series B Certificate of Designation) with respect to each share of Series B Preferred Stock will be increased by the requisite number of shares of Common Stock such that the value of the shares of Common Stock issuable in respect of the initial stated value of each share of Series B Preferred Stock equals $1,000.00 (subject to adjustment). No fractional shares will be issued upon conversion; rather any fractional share will be rounded down to the nearest whole share. Assuming no adjustment of the exercise price, the Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into a maximum of 5,102,000 shares of Class A common stock.

As more fully discussed below, without stockholder approval of this Proposal 1, the total amount of Class A common stock that could be issued to EnTrust upon exercise of the March 2024 Warrant and the August 2024 Warrants and the Series B Preferred Stock is 3,560,512 shares, which represents 19.9% of the shares of Class A common stock outstanding on March 4, 2024, the day that the March 2024 Warrant was issued as part of the financing transaction with EnTrust. Because the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable under the March 2024 Warrant cannot be determined until the date that the March 2024 Warrant is exercised by EnTrust and is based on the number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding at the time of such exercise, the number of shares to be issued cannot be determined at this time. Upon approval of this Proposal 1, the Company would be able to issue all of the shares of Class A common stock that could be issuable on the dates of the March 2024 Warrant's exercise. The March 2024 Warrant is exercisable beginning on March 4, 2026, as to 50% of the Share Count Cap, and beginning on March 4, 2027, as to 100% of the Share Count Cap. As noted above, the March 2024 Warrant may not be exercised for a number of shares of Class A common stock having an aggregate value in excess of $11,250,000.

NYSE Rule 713

Because our Class A common stock is traded on The NYSE American, we are subject to the NYSE rules for listed companies, including NYSE Rule 713.

Pursuant to NYSE Rule 713, stockholder approval is required prior to the issuance by us of securities in connection with a transaction (or a series of related transactions) other than a public offering, involving the sale, issuance or potential issuance of Class A common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for Class A common stock) equal to 20% or more of the Class A common stock outstanding before the issuance for less than the greater of book or market value of the Class A common stock. The exercise price of the March 2024 Warrant and the August 2024

FLYEXCLUSIVE • 2024 Proxy Statement 12

Table of Contents

Warrants is $0.01 per share of Class A common stock, which was less than both the book value and market value of the Class A common stock on March 4, 2024.

Background of the March 2024 and August 2024 Transactions

March 2024 Transaction

On March 4, 2024, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") with EnTrust Emerald, a Cayman Islands limited partnership, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to EnTrust Emerald 25,000 shares of Series A non-convertible redeemable preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), at a purchase price of $1,000 per share and the March 2024 Warrant to purchase shares of the Company's Class A common stock. The transaction closed on March 4, 2024, and provided the Company approximately $25 million of capital. This financing was an important transaction for the Company as it provided funds to expand its fleet and build out its fractional ownership program.

As discussed above, the March 2024 Warrant grants EnTrust Emerald the right to purchase shares of Class A common stock in an aggregate amount equal to the Share Count Cap, which is 1.5% of the outstanding Class A common stock on the date of exercise on a fully diluted basis at an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The March 2024 Warrant is exercisable beginning on March 4, 2026, as to 50% of the Share Count Cap, and beginning on March 4, 2027, as to 100% of the Share Count Cap. The March 2024 Warrant expires on March 4, 2029, and may not be exercised for a number of shares of Class A common stock having an aggregate value in excess of $11,250,000.

Assuming the March 2024 Warrant were to be exercised in full at the earliest date possible, which would be March 4, 2026, as to 50% of the Share Count Cap, and further assuming the fully diluted Class A common stock at that date was 101,405,876 shares, which includes all instruments convertible into Class A common stock outstanding on October 18, 2024, including the March 2024 Warrant, the Company would issue to EnTrust Emerald 760,544 shares of Class A common stock, which would be 0.75% of the fully diluted Class A common stock on that date.

Assuming the remaining portion of the March 2024 Warrant were to be exercised in full at the earliest date possible, which would be March 4, 2027, as to the remaining 50% of the Share Count Cap, and further assuming the fully diluted Class A common stock at that date was 101,405,876 shares, which includes all instruments convertible into Class A comm stock outstanding on October 18, 2024, including the March 2024 Warrant, plus the assumed 760,544 shares issuable on the first exercise date, the Company would issue to EnTrust Emerald 760,544 shares of Class A common stock, which would be 0.75% of the fully diluted Class A common stock on that date.

These two issuances would represent a total of 1,521,088 shares of Class A common stock. As noted, the March 2024 Warrant may not be exercised for a number of shares of Class A common stock having an aggregate value in excess of $11,250,000. We do not know whether this limitation would be applicable because we do not know what the price of the Class A common stock would be on either exercise date. Assuming that the price on both exercise dates was $2.56, which was the closing price of the Class A common stock on October 18, 2024, and using the share issuance examples above, the value of the 760,544 shares of Class A common stock issuable on March 4, 2026 would be $1,946,993 and the value of the 760,544 shares of Class A common stock issuable on March 4, 2027 would be $1,946,992.64, which is less than $11,250,000.

At the closing of transaction contemplated by the Agreement, NYSE Rule 713 would allow us to issue up to 19.99% of the then outstanding shares of our Class A common stock, or 3,560,512 shares. Using the examples above, that would prohibit full exercise of the August 2024 Warrants or full conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock. Pursuant to the terms of the March 2024 Warrant, the issuance of shares upon exercise of the March 2024 Warrant in excess of NYSE rule 713 are subject to stockholder approval and entirely contingent upon gaining such stockholder approval. Upon approval of this Proposal 1, the Company could issue those shares or any other amount within the Share Count Cap, and subject to the limitation that such shares may not stock have an aggregate value in excess of $11,250,000.

We note that the shares of Series A Preferred Stock are not convertible into any other securities of flyExclusive and therefore do not impact the calculation of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the March 2024 Warrant. Further, the shares of Series A Preferred Stock are not entitled to vote on this Proposal 1.

August 2024 Transaction

On August 8, 2024, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Series B Stock Purchase Agreement") with EnTrust Emerald and EG Sponsor LLC ("EGA Sponsor") (collectively with EnTrust Emerald, the "Series B Preferred Purchasers") (related parties of the Company through its affiliation with the EGA Sponsor), pursuant to

FLYEXCLUSIVE • 2024 Proxy Statement 13

Table of Contents

which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Series B Preferred Purchasers an aggregate of 25,510 shares of Series B Preferred Stock and the August 2024 Warrants. The Company issued 20,408 shares of Series B Preferred Stock and a August 2024 Warrant to purchase up to 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock to EnTrust Emerald on the Initial Closing Date and received gross proceeds of approximately $20.4 million. Pursuant to and subject to the terms and conditions of the Series B Stock Agreement, the Company (i) issued the remaining 5,102 shares of Series B Preferred Stock and a August 2024 Warrant to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock to EG Sponsor on August 14, 2024 and (ii) received additional gross proceeds of approximately $5.1 million. This financing was an important transaction for the Company as it provided funds to update and increase the size of the Company's fleet and to execute on its vertical integration strategy generally.

Each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall accrue dividends on a daily basis in arrears beginning on the Initial Issue Date at the applicable dividend rate then in effect (the "Dividend Rate"). From and after the Initial Issue Date, the Dividend Rate for Series B Preferred Stock shall be 12.00% per annum. From and after February 1, 2025 until July 31, 2025, the Dividend Rate for Series B Preferred Stock shall be 16.00% per annum. From and after August 1, 2025, the Dividend Rate for Series B Preferred Stock shall be 20.00% per annum.

Dividends will be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the first Trading Day of each fiscal quarter of the Issuer (the "Dividend Payment Date") by either (A) cash payment or (B) to the extent not declared and paid in cash on the Dividend Payment Date, automatically compounded; provided that, the Company may not declare and pay in cash any dividends prior to the first quarter of the Fiscal Year 2025 Dividend Payment Date. On the Dividend Payment Date with respect to the first fiscal quarter of the Fiscal Year 2025, the Company must declare and pay 50% of the dividends with respect to the period commencing February 1, 2025 and ending March 31, 2025 in cash. On the Dividend Payment Date with respect to the second fiscal quarter of the Fiscal Year 2025, the Company must declare and pay 50% of the dividends with respect to the full Dividend Period (as defined in the Series B Certificate of Designation) with respect to such quarter in cash. On the Dividend Payment Date with respect to the third fiscal quarter of the Fiscal Year 2025, the Company must declare and pay 50% of the dividends with respect to the period commencing July 1, 2025 and ending July 31, 2025 in cash, and the Company must declare and pay 100% of the dividends with respect to the period commencing August 1, 2025 and ending September 30, 2025 in cash. Thereafter, on each subsequent Dividend Payment Date, the Company must declare and pay 100% of the dividends in cash.

From and after August 8, 2025 until the Automatic Conversion Date, each holder of Series B Preferred Stock may elect to require the Company to redeem all of its outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock, or any portion thereof, for cash at a redemption price per share as detailed in the Series B Certificate of Designation. The Series B Certificate of Designation also describes events triggering mandatory redemption of Series B Preferred Stock, including a Bankruptcy Event or a Change of Control Event, each as defined in the Series B Certificate of Designation.

Each share of Series B Preferred Stock will automatically convert into a number of shares of the Company's Common Stock on the earlier of December 31, 2025 and the closing of the Subsequent Capital Raise (as defined in the Series B Certificate of Designation) (the "Automatic Conversion Date") at an initial conversion price of $5.00 ("Conversion Price"), subject to adjustment as provided in the Series B Certificate of Designation (including adjustments due to anti-dilution provisions). In the event that the VWAP on the Trading Day (each as defined in the Series B Certificate of Designation) immediately preceding the Automatic Conversion Date is less than the Conversion Price, the Conversion Rate (as defined in the Series B Certificate of Designation) with respect to each share of Series B Preferred Stock will be increased by the requisite number of shares of Common Stock such that the value of the shares of Common Stock issuable in respect of the initial stated value of each share of Series B Preferred Stock equals $1,000.00 (subject to adjustment). No fractional shares will be issued upon conversion; rather any fractional share will be rounded down to the nearest whole share.

Assuming the August 2024 Warrant were to be exercised in full, the Company would issue to the Series B Preferred Purchasers 5,000,000 shares of Class A common stock. Assuming the conversion of all of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock, the Company would issue to the Series B Preferred Purchasers 5,102,000 shares of Class A common stock. These two issuances would represent a total of 10,102,000 shares of Class A common stock.

At the closing of the March 2024 transaction, NYSE Rule 713 would allow us to issue up to 19.99% of the then outstanding shares of our Class A common stock, or 3,560,512 shares. Using the examples above of the possible exercise of the March 2024 Warrant, that would prohibit full exercise of the August 2024 Warrants or the full conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock. Further, if none of the March 2024 Warrant was exercised, the 3,560,512 share cap still would prevent full exercise of the August 2024 Warrants or full conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock. Pursuant to the terms of the August 2024 Warrants and the Series B Preferred Stock, the issuance of shares upon exercise of the August 2024 Warrants or the conversion of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock in excess of NYSE Rule 713 are subject to stockholder approval and entirely contingent upon gaining such stockholder approval.

Table of Contents

Upon approval of this Proposal 1, the Company could issue all of the shares issuable upon the exercise of the August 2024 Warrants and the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock.

We note that the shares of Series B Preferred Stock are convertible into shares of Class A common stock and therefore do impact the calculation of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon Conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock. We further note that the shares of Series B Preferred Stock are not entitled to vote on this Proposal 1.

Interested Parties

Gregg S. Hymowitz, a member of the Company's Board of Directors, to which position he was designated by an affiliate of EnTrust, serves as the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of EnTrust Global Partners LLC ("EnTrust Global"), which is an affiliate of EnTrust and may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of approximately 21%of the Company's outstanding Class A common stock. Each of EnTrust Global and Mr. Hymowitz disclaims beneficial ownership of such securities except to the extent of its or his pecuniary interest therein. Gary Fegel is also a member of the Company's Board of Directors, to which position he was designated by an affiliate of EnTrust. As required by the Company's internal policies, this transaction was approved by the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors, which consists of independent disinterested directors, and was also approved by the Company's Board of Directors, with only disinterested directors voting (which excluded Mr. Hymowitz and Mr. Fegel).

Effect of Issuance of Class A Common Stock Upon Exercise of the March 2024 Warrant and the August 2024 Warrants and the Conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock

The issuance of shares of Class A common stock that are the subject of this Proposal 1 would result in an increase in the number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding, and our stockholders will incur dilution of their percentage ownership of the outstanding Class A common stock the Company, although the existing warrants and Series B Preferred Stock are the economic equivalent of Class A common stock so the increase in the number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding and related percentage ownership dilution would have no economic effect.

Interests of Directors and Executive Officers

Our directors and executive officers have no interests, directly or indirectly, in this proposal except as described under "Interested Parties" above.

Vote Required

The proposal regarding the approval of the issuance of shares of Class A common stock, as required by NYSE American rules, requires the approval of the holders of a majority in voting power of the votes cast. Abstentions are not considered to be votes cast and, accordingly, will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal. Brokers do not have discretionary authority to vote on this proposal. Broker non-votes are not considered to be votes cast and, accordingly, will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

The Board unanimously recommends a vote FOR the approval of the issuance of the shares of Class A common stock, as required by NYSE American rules.

Proposal 2: Election of Directors

At the Annual Meeting, seven directors will be elected to serve until the 2025 Annual Meeting, or until their successors have been duly elected and qualified or until each such director's earlier death, resignation or removal.

In the event that any of the nominees should become unable to serve, or for good cause will not serve, as a director, it is intended that votes will be cast for a substitute nominee designated by the Board or the Board may elect to reduce its size. The Board has no reason to believe that the nominees named below will be unable to serve if elected. Each of the nominees has consented to being named in this proxy statement and to serve if elected.

Proposal 3: Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Audit and Risk Committee of the Board has appointed Elliott Davis as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. The Board has directed that this appointment be submitted to our stockholders for ratification at the Annual Meeting. Although ratification of the appointment of Elliot Davis is not required, the Company values the opinions of its stockholders and believes that stockholder ratification of the appointment is a good corporate governance practice.

Elliott Davis also served as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. Neither the accounting firm nor any of its members has any direct or indirect financial interest in or any connection with the Company in any capacity other than as the Company's auditors, providing audit and non-audit related services. A representative of Elliott Davis is expected to virtually attend the Annual Meeting and to have an opportunity to make a statement and be available to respond to appropriate questions from stockholders.

In the event that the appointment of Elliott Davis is not ratified by the stockholders, the Audit and Risk Committee will consider this fact when it appoints the independent auditors for subsequent fiscal years. Even if the appointment of Elliott Davis is ratified, the Audit and Risk Committee retains the discretion to appoint a different independent auditor at any time if it determines that such a change is in the best interest of the Company.

Vote Required

This proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the votes cast. Abstentions are not considered to be votes cast and, accordingly, will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal. Because brokers have discretionary authority to vote on the ratification of the appointment of Elliott Davis, we do not expect any broker non-votes in connection with this proposal.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

The Board unanimously recommends a vote FOR the ratification of the appointment of Elliott Davis as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024.

Report of the Audit and Risk Committee of the Board of Directors

The Audit and Risk Committee has reviewed flyExclusive's audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and has discussed these financial statements with management and flyExclusive's independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit and Risk Committee has also received from, and discussed with, flyExclusive's independent registered public accounting firm various communications that such independent registered public accounting firm is required to provide to the Audit and Risk Committee, including the matters required to be discussed by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") and SEC.

flyExclusive's independent registered public accounting firm also provided the Audit and Risk Committee with a formal written statement required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB describing all relationships between the independent registered public accounting firm and flyExclusive, including the disclosures required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent registered public accounting firm's communications with the Audit and Risk Committee concerning independence. In addition, the Audit and Risk Committee discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm its independence from flyExclusive.

Based on its discussions with management and the independent registered public accounting firm, and its review of the representations and information provided by management and the independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit and Risk Committee recommended to the Board that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in flyExclusive's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm Fees and Other Matters

Aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered by Elliott Davis, PLLC for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 were as follows:


2023	2022
Audit Fees	$1,500,000	$1,325,000

Tax Fees	$520,000	$315,000
Total Fees	$2,020,000	$1,640,000

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

The Audit Committee has adopted a policy and procedures for the pre-approval of audit and non-audit services rendered by the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, Elliott Davis. The policy generally pre-approves specified services in the defined categories of audit services, audit-related services and tax services up to specified amounts. Pre-approval may also be given as part of the Audit Committee's approval of the scope of the engagement of the independent auditor or on an individual, explicit, case-by-case basis before the independent auditor is engaged to provide each service. The pre-approval of services may be delegated to one or more of the Audit Committee's members, but the decision must be reported to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

The Audit Committee has determined that the rendering of non-audit services by Elliott Davis is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant's independence for the period of time during which it has served as our independent auditor.

Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

On December 27, 2023, the Board approved the engagement of Elliott Davis as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2023. Accordingly, Marcum LLP ("Marcum"), EGA's independent registered public accounting firm prior to the Business Combination, was informed that it would be dismissed and replaced by Elliott Davis as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.

Marcum's report on the Company's balance sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2022 and for the period from January 28, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021 and the related notes (collectively, the "EGA financial statements") did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except for the substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

During the period from January 28, 2021 (inception), through December 31, 2022, and subsequent interim periods through December 27, 2023, there were no disagreements between EGA and Marcum on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Marcum, would have caused Marcum to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its report covering such period.

During the period from January 28, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2022, and the interim period through December 27, 2023, neither the Company or anyone acting on its behalf consulted Elliott Davis with respect to either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements, and no written report or oral advice was provided to the Company by Elliott Davis that Elliott Davis concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement, as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act, or a reportable event, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act.

Corporate Governance

General

The Company's business and affairs are managed under the direction of its Board. The Board has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines, a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, and charters for its Audit and Risk Committee, Compensation Committee, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to assist it in the exercise of its responsibilities and to serve as a framework for the effective governance of the Company. You can access the current Committee charters, Corporate Governance Guidelines, and Code of Business Conduct and Ethics in the "Governance Documents" section under the "Governance" section of the "Investors" page of the Company's website located at www.flyexclusive.com, or by writing to the Secretary at the Company's offices at 2860 Jetport Road, Kinston, North Carolina 28504.

Board Composition

As part of the Business Combination, EGA ( now flyExclusive), Mr. Segrave Jr., in his personal capacity and as custodian for shares of Class B common stock held in trusts for his children, and the Sponsor, entered into a Stockholders' Agreement, pursuant to which Mr. Segrave Jr. (in his personal and custodial capacities) and the Sponsor agreed to vote each of their respective securities of flyExclusive that may be voted in the election of flyExclusive's directors for two members nominated by the Sponsor. At this time, those two Sponsor nominees are Gregg S. Hymowitz and Gary Fegel.

Board Diversity

We are committed to fostering an environment of diversity and inclusion, including among the members of our Board of Directors. Therefore, while the Board has not adopted a formal diversity policy, in considering director nominees, the Nominating and Governance Committee considers candidates who represent a mix of backgrounds and a diversity of gender, race, ethnicity, age, background, professional experience and perspectives that enhance the quality of the deliberations and decisions of our Board, in the context of both the perceived needs of the structure of our Board and the Company's business and structure at that point in time.

The following chart summarizes certain self-identified personal characteristics of our directors, in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(f). The chart only includes information regarding directors nominated for reelection at the Annual Meeting. Each term used in the table has the definition provided in the rule and related instructions.

Director Independence

By virtue of the combined voting power of the former equityholders of LGM who hold more than 50% of the total voting power of our shares of outstanding capital stock, we qualify as a "controlled company" within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of the NYSE American. Under these rules, a listed company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group or another company is a "controlled company" and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements, including the requirements that (i) a majority of our Board consist of independent directors, (ii) we have a compensation committee composed entirely of independent directors and (iii) we have a nominating/corporate governance committee composed entirely of independent directors.

We are relying on all three of these exemptions. As a result, our Board does not consist of a majority of independent directors, we do not have a compensation committee consisting entirely of independent directors, and we do not have a nominating/corporate governance committee that is composed entirely of independent directors.

The Board undertook a review of the independence of the directors and considered whether any director has a material relationship with the Company that could compromise that director's ability to exercise independent judgment in carrying out that director's responsibilities. The Board has affirmatively determined that Mr. Michael S. Fox, Frank B. Holding, Jr. and Peter Hopper are each an "independent director," as defined under the rules of the NYSE American. In making this determination, the Board considered the current and prior relationships that each of those three directors has with our Company and all other facts and circumstances the Board deemed relevant in determining their independence.

Director Candidates

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is primarily responsible for carrying out the responsibilities delegated by the Board relating to the Company's director nomination process and filling vacancies on the Board. To facilitate the search process, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may retain and obtain the advice and assistance of outside counsel and such other advisors as it deems necessary. Once potential candidates are identified, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews the backgrounds of those candidates, evaluates candidates' independence from the Company and potential conflicts of interest and determines if candidates meet the qualifications desired by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee for candidates for election as a director.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not set specific, minimum qualifications that nominees must meet in order to be recommended to the Board of Directors, but rather the Board believes that each nominee should be evaluated based on his or her individual merits, taking into account the needs of the Company and the composition of the Board. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee conducts appropriate inquiries into the backgrounds and qualifications of possible nominees and investigates and reviews each proposed nominee's qualifications for service on the Board.

FLYEXCLUSIVE • 2024 Proxy Statement 26

Table of Contents

Stockholders may recommend individuals to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee for consideration as potential director candidates by submitting the names and addresses of the recommended individuals, together with appropriate biographical information and background materials, along with a description of any direct or indirect material interest in any material contract or agreement with the Company to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, c/o Secretary, flyExclusive, Inc., 2860 Jetport Road, Kinston, North Carolina 28504.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider candidates recommended by stockholders. It is the policy of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee that candidates recommended by stockholders will be given appropriate consideration in the same manner as other candidates. The procedure for submitting candidates for consideration by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee for election at our 2024 annual meeting is described under "Stockholder Proposals." In the event there is a vacancy, and assuming that appropriate biographical and background material has been provided on a timely basis, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will evaluate stockholder-recommended candidates by following substantially the same process, and applying substantially the same criteria, as it follows for candidates submitted by others.

Communications from Stockholders

The Board will give appropriate attention to written communications that are submitted by stockholders and other interested parties and will respond if and as appropriate. Our Secretary is primarily responsible for monitoring communications from stockholders and interested parties and for providing copies or summaries to the directors as he or she considers appropriate.

Communications are forwarded to the Board or individual directors, as applicable, if they relate to important substantive matters and include suggestions or comments that our Secretary and Chairman of the Board consider to be important for the directors to know. In general, communications relating to corporate governance and long-term corporate strategy are more likely to be forwarded than communications relating to ordinary business affairs, personal grievances and matters as to which we tend to receive repetitive or duplicative communications. Stockholders who wish to send communications on any topic to the Board should address such communications to the Board in writing: c/o Secretary, flyExclusive, Inc., 2860 Jetport Road, Kinston, North Carolina 28504.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

While management is responsible for managing the day-to-day issues faced by the Company, our Board of Directors has an active role in the oversight of the Company's risk management efforts. The Board of Directors receives and reviews periodic reports from management, auditors, legal counsel, and others, as considered appropriate regarding the Company's assessment of risks. The Board of Directors focuses on the most significant risks facing the Company and the Company's general risk management strategy, and also ensures that risks undertaken by the Company are consistent with the Board's appetite for risk. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing the Company and that our Board leadership structure supports this approach.

The Board also relies on its committees for specific risk oversight. In particular, the Audit Committee oversees risk related to our accounting, tax, financial and public disclosure processes, as well as risks associated with our financial assets. The Compensation Committee oversees risks related to our compensation and benefit plans and policies to ensure sound pay practices that do not cause risks to arise that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our Company.

In order to promote open discussion among non-employee directors, our Board of Directors has a policy of regularly conducting executive sessions of non-employee directors at scheduled meetings and at such other times requested by any non-employee director. In December 2023, Michael S. Fox was selected by the Board to serve as lead independent director. As lead independent director, Mr. Fox provides valuable leadership to the independent directors, presides over meetings and sessions of the independent directors, and advises the Board on matters where there may be an actual or perceived conflict of interest.

Our Board does not have a policy on whether or not the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman should be separate and, if they are to be separate, whether the Chairman should be selected from the non-employee directors or be an employee. Mr. Segrave Jr. serves as our Chief Executive Officer and our Board appointed him as chairman of the Board in December 2023.

Code of Ethics and Conflict of Interest Policy

The Company has a written Code of Ethics and Conflict of Interest Policy that applies to its directors, officers and employees, as well as to directors, officers and employees of each subsidiary. A current copy of the Code is posted on the Company's website, www.flyexclusive.com under the "Governance" section of the "Investors" page. In addition, the Company intends to post on its website all disclosures thatare required by law or NYSE American listing standards concerning any amendments to, or waivers from, any provision of the Code.

Anti-Hedging Policy

The Board has adopted an Insider Trading Policy, which applies to all of the employees, directors, executive officers and their assistants and consultants. The policy applies to all transactions in the Company's securities, including common stock, options to purchase common stock, and any other securities the Company may issue from time to time, such as preferred stock, warrants or convertible debentures, as well as to derivative securities relating to the Company's stock, such as exchange-traded options, whether or not issued by the Company.

Compensation Recovery Policy

The Board has adopted a Clawback Policy intended to comply with the final clawback rules adopted by the SEC pursuant to Section 10D and Rule 10D-1 of the Exchange Act, and the related NYSE listing requirements (together, the "Final Clawback Rules") The Clawback Policy requires the Company to recover reasonably promptly any erroneously awarded compensation received by current and former executive officers (as defined in the Clawback Policy) of the Company in the event that the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement, in accordance with the Final Clawback Rules. The recovery of such compensation applies regardless of whether an executive officer engaged in misconduct or otherwise caused or contributed to the requirement of an accounting restatement. Under the Clawback Policy, the Company may recoup from current or former executive officers erroneously awarded compensation received within a look-back period of the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the date that the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement. A copy of the policy was filed as Exhibit 97 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on May 1, 2024.

Attendance by Members of the Board of Directors at Meetings

Because the Business Combination was consummated on December 27, 2023, the current Board of flyExclusive did not hold any meetings in 2023 nor did any of its committees although the Board did act by written consent immediately after the close of the Business Combination. Prior to the Business Combination, the EGA board of directors held in person meetings during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, and also took action by written consent. We are advised that during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, Gary Fegel and Gregg S. Hymowitz, each of whom is one of our current directors and was a director of EGA prior to the Business Combination, attended at least 75% of the aggregate of (i) all meetings of the Board and (ii) all meetings of the committees on which he served.

Under the Corporate Governance Guidelines, which are available on the Company's website at www.flyexclusive.com (in "Governance Documents" under the "Governance" section of the "Investors" page), a director is expected to spend the time and effort necessary to properly discharge his responsibilities. Accordingly, a director is expected to regularly prepare for and attend meetings of the Board and all committees on which the director sits (including separate meetings of the independent directors), with the understanding that, on occasion, a director may be unable to attend a meeting. A director who is unable to attend a meeting of the Board or a committee of the Board is expected to notify the Chairman of the Board or the Chairman of the appropriate committee in advance of such meeting, and, whenever possible, participate in such meeting via teleconference in the case of an in-person meeting. We do not maintain a formal policy regarding director attendance at the Annual Meeting; however, it is expected that absent compelling circumstances directors will attend.

2023 Narrative to Summary Compensation Table

Base Salaries

The named executive officers receive their respective base salaries to compensate them for services rendered to LGM (other than in 2022 and 2023 with respect to Mr. Segrave Jr., who received distributions from LGM in lieu of a base salary). The base salary payable to each named executive officer is intended to provide a fixed component of compensation reflecting the executive's skill set, experience, role and responsibilities.

The 2023 base salaries for Messrs. Barnard, Guina and Smith were $370,000, $342,500 and $277,083, respectively. Mr. Segrave Jr. received distributions from LGM in the amount of $8,500,000.

Annual Incentive Cash Bonuses

From time to time, LGM pays cash bonuses to its named executive officers for the achievement of certain objective and/or subjective performance goals, in the discretion of Mr. Segrave Jr.

Long-Term Equity Incentive

None of LGM's named executive officers received any stock options or other incentive equity awards in fiscal year 2022 or 2023.

Other Elements of Compensation

Retirement Plans

The named executive officers are eligible to participate in a 401(k) retirement savings plan maintained by LGM. The Code allows eligible employees to defer a portion of their compensation, within prescribed limits, on a pre-tax basis through contributions to the 401(k) plan. In 2022, contributions made by participants, including the named executive officers, in the 401(k) plan were 50% matched by LGM up to 8% of the employee's compensation. These matching contributions are generally unvested as of the date on which the contribution is made, and vest 20% over a five-year period, subject to continued service. We anticipate that, following consummation of the Business Combination, our named executive officers will continue to participate in the 401(k) plan on the same terms as other full-time employees.

Employee Benefits

LGM provides benefits to its named executive officers on the same basis as provided to all of its employees, including health, dental and vision insurance; life insurance; accidental death insurance, and dismemberment insurance; and disability insurance.

Aircraft Use

LGM's executive officers use its aircraft for flights directly related to their business duties. LGM also allows some executive officers to use its aircraft for personal benefit. Certain executive officers are allocated a specific number of flight hours on an annual basis while other executive officers are granted flight hours from time to time at the discretion of Mr. Segrave Jr. Flight hours granted to executives may be used by the executive and their immediate family members. The aggregate incremental cost to LGM of Mr. Segrave Jr.'s personal use of its aircraft was $182,645 and $220,139 for 2022 and 2023, respectively. No other executive officer used Company aircraft for personal reasons in 2022 or 2023. LGM determines the incremental cost of the personal use of its aircraft based on the variable operating costs to LGM, which includes (i) landing, ramp and parking fees and expenses, (ii) crew travel expenses, (iii) aircraft fuel expenses per hour of flight and (iv) incidental expenses. Primarily, LGM's aircraft are used for business purposes; therefore, fixed costs that do not change based on each usage, such as pilot and crew salaries, lease or purchase costs of aircraft and maintenance costs, are not included in the formula for determining incremental cost. The executive officers incur taxable income for the usage of their granted flight time, calculated in accordance with the tax Standard Industry Fare Level. LGM does not grant bonuses to its executive officers to cover or "gross-up" any income tax owed for use of flight hours for personal benefit. Certain executive officers may also pay for additional flight time in excess of the flight hours allocated to them, based on discounted hourly rates that cover the incremental costs to LGM. Executive officers' use of personal flight hours is also subject to certain conditions and restrictions, such as minimum notice periods, peak days and minimum daily flight times.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owner and Management

The following table sets forth information regarding beneficial ownership of our Class A Common Stock as of September 30, 2024, by:

•each person known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of outstanding shares of our Common Stock;

•each of our executive officers and directors that beneficially owns our shares of common stock; and

•all our executive officers and directors as a group.

Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC, which generally provide that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if he, she or it possesses sole or shared voting or investment power over that security, including options and warrants that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days. Voting power represents the combined voting power of shares of Class A Common Stock and shares of Class B Common Stock owned beneficially by such person. On all matters to be voted upon, holders of shares 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. 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. Currently, all of the shares of Class B Common Stock are convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis.

The ownership percentages in the table below are calculated based on (i) 18,199,586 outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, (ii) 59,930,000 outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock, (iii)59,930,000 outstanding LGM Common Units, (iv) 2,519,869 outstanding publicly traded warrants, (v) 4,333,333 outstanding private placement warrants, and (vi) 5,000,000 August 2024 Warrants, in each case as of September 30, 2024. As explained in footnote (2) below, for purposes of determining the percentage of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by each holder, the table assumes that all LGM Common Units, publicly traded warrants and private placement warrants are exercised or exchanged for one share of Class A Common Stock and that such shares are deemed issued and outstanding and included in the denominator for all holders (to avoid a distorted and potentially misleading presentation of percentage share ownership by holder). The shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by Segrave Jr. are subject to a one-year lock-up period subject to the terms and conditions of the Stockholders' Agreement. The 5,625,000 shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by EG Sponsor LLC (representing the former Founder Shares) are subject to a three-year lock-up period subject to the terms of the letter agreement executed in connection with the initial public offering of EG Acquisition Corp.

EGA's Related Party Transactions

Founder Shares

On January 29, 2021, we issued an aggregate of 5,750,000 Founder Shares to our Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 in cash, or approximately $0.004 per share. In March 2021, EGA effected a stock dividend resulting in an increase in the total number of shares of EGA Class B Common Stock outstanding from 5,750,000 to 7,187,500. On May 25, 2021, the Sponsor surrendered an aggregate of 718,750 shares of EGA Class B Common Stock for no consideration, which were cancelled, resulting in an aggregate of 6,468,750 shares of EGA Class B Common Stock outstanding and held by the Sponsor. In July 2021, 843,750 of the Founder Shares were forfeited because the underwriters' over-allotment was not exercised, resulting in a decrease in the total number of shares of EGA Class B Common Stock outstanding to 5,625,000, such that the total number of Founder Shares represented 20% of the total number of shares of EGA Common Stock outstanding. On May 19, 2023, EGA's stockholders approved a proposal to amend EGA's organizational documents to extend the deadline by which EGA's initial business combination must be completed up to five times, initially from May 28, 2023 to August 28, 2023, and thereafter for additional one month periods commencing on August 28, 2023 through and until December 28, 2023 (or such earlier date after May 28, 2023 as determined by the Board). Following the approval of the amendment to EGA's organizational documents, Sponsor elected to convert 5,624,000 of the 5,625,000 Founder Shares into the Converted Shares, such that the total number of Founder Shares and Converted Shares held by Sponsor represents 57% of the

total number of shares of EGA Common Stock outstanding. The Founder Shares (including the EGA Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof) and Converted Shares may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holder.

Private Placement Warrants

Our Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 4,333,333 private placement warrants at a price of $1.50 per warrant in a private placement that occurred simultaneously with the closing of our IPO.

Each private placement warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share. The private placement warrants (including the Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise thereof) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holder until three years after the completion of our initial business combination, except, (a) to our officers or directors, any affiliates or family members of any of our officers or directors, any members of our Sponsor, or any affiliates of our Sponsor, as well as affiliates of such members and funds and accounts advised by such members; (b) in the case of an individual, by gift to such individual's immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of such individual's immediate family, an affiliate of such person or to a charitable organization; (c) in the case of an individual, by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of the individual; (d) in the case of an individual, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; (e) by private sales or transfers made in connection with the consummation of an initial business combination at prices no greater than the price at which the shares or warrants were originally purchased; (f) in the event of our liquidation prior to the completion of our initial business combination; (g) by virtue of the laws of Delaware or our Sponsor's limited liability company agreement upon dissolution of our Sponsor; or (h) in the event of our liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction which results in all of our stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property subsequent to our completion of our initial business combination; provided, however, that in the case of clauses (a) through (e) or (g) these permitted transferees must enter into a written agreement agreeing to be bound by these transfer restrictions and the other restrictions contained in the Letter Agreement and by the same agreements entered into by our Sponsor with respect to such securities (including provisions relating to voting, the Trust Account and liquidation distributions), and they are not redeemable by us so long as they are held by our Sponsor or its permitted transferees.

Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, we will provide a right of first offer to our Sponsor if, in connection with or prior to the Closing, we propose to raise additional capital by issuing any equity securities, or securities convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for equity securities (other than warrants in respect of working capital loans as described above or to any seller in such business combination).

Bridge Notes

In connection with the execution of the Equity Purchase Agreement, on October 17, 2022, LGM entered into a senior subordinated convertible note with an investor and, for certain limited provisions thereof, EGA, pursuant to which LGM borrowed an aggregate principal amount of $50,000,000 at a rate of 10% per annum, payable in kind in additional shares of our Company upon the Closing. On October 28, 2022, LGM also entered into an Incremental Amendment with the Bridge Note Lenders on the same terms for an aggregate principal amount of $35,000,000, bringing the total principal amount of the Bridge Notes to $85,000,000 in the aggregate.

Concurrently with the Closing, the Bridge Notes automatically converted into the number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the quotient of (a) the total amount owed by LGM under the Bridge Notes (including accrued PIK interest) divided by (b) $10.00 (subject to adjustment in certain instances, as described in the Bridge Notes). Unless otherwise consented to by the Bridge Note Lenders, the proceeds of the Bridge Notes are to be used primarily for the acquisition of additional aircraft and payment of expenses related thereto.

Tax Receivable Agreement

At the Closing, we, LGM, the Existing Equityholders and the TRA Holder Representative entered into the Tax Receivable Agreement. Pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreement, PubCo will generally be required to pay the Existing Equityholders 85% of the amount of savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state, local and foreign taxes that are based on, or measured with respect to, net income or profits, and any interest related thereto that the Tax Group (i.e., our Company and applicable consolidated, unitary, or combined subsidiaries (as defined in the Tax Receivable Agreement)) realizes, or is deemed to realize, as a result of certain Tax Attributes, including:

•tax basis adjustments resulting from the repurchase by LGM of LGM Common Units (including any such adjustments resulting from certain payments made by us under the Tax Receivable Agreement) in accordance with the terms of the Equity Purchase Agreement;

FLYEXCLUSIVE • 2024 Proxy Statement 41

Table of Contents

•tax basis adjustments resulting from taxable exchanges of LGM Common Units (including any such adjustments resulting from certain payments made by us under the Tax Receivable Agreement) acquired by us from an Existing Equityholder pursuant to the terms of the Operating Agreement; and

• tax deductions in respect of portions of certain payments made under the Tax Receivable Agreement.

Under the Tax Receivable Agreement, the Tax Group will generally be treated as realizing a tax benefit from the use of a Tax Attribute on a "with and without" basis, thereby generally treating the Tax Attributes as the last item used, subject to several exceptions. Payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement generally will be based on the tax reporting positions that we determine (with the amount of subject payments determined in consultation with an advisory firm and subject to the TRA Holder Representative's review and consent). The IRS or another taxing authority may challenge all or any part of a position taken with respect to Tax Attributes or the utilization thereof, as well as other tax positions that we take, and a court may sustain such a challenge. In the event that any Tax Attributes initially claimed or utilized by the Tax Group are disallowed, the Existing Equityholders will not be required to reimburse us for any excess payments previously made pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreement, for example, due to adjustments resulting from examinations by taxing authorities. Rather, any excess payments made to such Existing Equityholder will be applied against and reduce any future cash payments otherwise required to be made by us to the applicable Existing Equityholders under the Tax Receivable Agreement, if any, after the determination of such excess. However, a challenge to any Tax Attributes initially claimed or utilized by the Tax Group might not arise for a number of years following the initial time of such payment and, even if challenged earlier, such excess cash payment may be greater than the amount of future cash payments that we might otherwise be required to make under the terms of the Tax Receivable Agreement. As a result, there might not be future cash payments against which such excess can be applied and we could be required to make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement in excess of the Tax Group's actual savings in respect of the Tax Attributes.

The Tax Receivable Agreement defines each of the following events as an Early Termination Event:

(i) we exercise our early termination rights under the Tax Receivable Agreement,

(ii) certain changes of control of our Company or LGM occur (as described in the Operating Agreement),

(iii) we, in certain circumstances, fail to make a payment required to be made pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreement by its final payment date, which non-payment continues for 30 days following such final payment date, unless certain liquidity related or restrictive covenant related exceptions apply, or

(iv) we materially breach (or are deemed to materially breach) any of our material obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement other than as described in the foregoing clause (iii), unless certain liquidity related or restrictive covenant related exceptions apply.

Upon an Early Termination Event, our obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement will accelerate (except in certain limited circumstances, if the TRA Holder Representative so elects in the case of clauses (ii)- (iv)) and we will be required to make a lump-sum cash payment to all the Existing Equityholders equal to the present value of all forecasted future payments that would have otherwise been made under the Tax Receivable Agreement. This lump-sum payment would be based on certain assumptions, including those relating to there being sufficient future taxable income of the Tax Group to fully utilize the Tax Attributes over certain specified time periods and that all LGM Common Units that had not yet been exchanged for Class A Common Stock or cash are deemed exchanged for cash. The lump-sum payment could be material and could materially exceed any actual tax benefits that the Tax Group realizes subsequent to such payment.

As a result of the foregoing, in some circumstances (i) we could be required to make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement that are greater than or less than the actual tax savings that the Tax Group realizes in respect of the Tax Attributes and (ii) it is possible that we may be required to make payments years in advance of the actual realization of tax benefits (if any, and may never actually realize the benefits paid for) in respect of the Tax Attributes (including if any Early Termination Event occurs).

Stockholders' Agreement

At the Closing, the Existing Equityholders, Sponsor and we entered into the Stockholders' Agreement. Pursuant to the Stockholders' Agreement, among other things, the Existing Equityholders and our Sponsor will agree to vote their respective securities of our Company that may be voted in the election of our directors in accordance with the provisions of the Stockholders' Agreement.

FLYEXCLUSIVE • 2024 Proxy Statement 42

Table of Contents

Our Board consists of seven directors. Our equityholders have the right to nominate directors as follows: the Sponsor, and its permitted transferees, by a majority of shares held by them, shall have the right to nominate, and our Board and the Existing Equityholders, and their permitted transferees, will appoint and vote for, two members of our Board, initially designated pursuant to the Stockholders' Agreement as Gregg S. Hymowitz and Gary Fegel, and thereafter as designated by the Sponsor, and its permitted transferees, by a majority of shares held by them.

Each Existing Equityholder also agreed to a one-year lock-up period following the Closing with respect to the shares of Common Stock received by the Existing Equityholder in the Business Combination and certain other shares owned by the Existing Equityholder (the "Lock-up Shares"). However, prior to the expiration of the lock-up period, any Existing Equityholder is permitted to transfer the Lock-up Shares through (i) a pledge of up to 25% of each individual Existing Equityholder's Lock-up Shares in connection with a bona fide transaction with a lender and disclosed in writing to our Board or (ii) a liquidation, merger, stock exchange, reorganization, or tender offer approved by our Board or a duly authorized committee thereof or other similar transaction that results in all of our stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities or other property subsequent to the Closing Date.

The Stockholders' Agreement also contains certain provisions intended to maintain, following the Closing, our qualification as a "controlled company" for purposes of compliance with certain NYSE American and SEC rules.

A&R Registration Rights Agreement

At the Closing, we and the Selling Stockholders entered into the A&R Registration Rights Agreement. The Selling Stockholders are the Existing Holders and the New Holders. The A&R Registration Rights Agreement covers the Class A Common Stock issued to the Selling Stockholders at the Closing and the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the private placement warrants and the LGM Common Units and requires us to register such securities for resale. Pursuant to the A&R Registration Rights Agreement, the Existing Holders holding at least a majority in interest of the then-outstanding number of registrable securities held by the Existing Holders, or the New Holders holding at least a majority-in-interest of the then-outstanding number of registrable securities held by the New Holders will be entitled to, among other things, make a Demand Registration for registration under the Securities Act of all or part of their shares of Class A Common Stock. Under no circumstances shall we be obligated to effect more than an aggregate of three registrations pursuant to a Demand Registration by the Existing Holders, or more than an aggregate of five registrations pursuant to a Demand Registration by the New Holders, with respect to any or all registrable securities held by such holders. In addition, the Existing Holders and the New Holders will be entitled to "piggy-back" registration rights to certain registration statements filed following the Business Combination. We will bear all of the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

BTIG Agreement

On December 27, 2023, the agreement for the fee to be paid to BTIG as the underwriter in EGA's initial public offering upon the Closing of the Business Combination was amended. Under the original terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the underwriter was due $7.9 million in cash, which equated to 3.5% of the gross proceeds of the initial public offering. The amended terms of the Underwriting Agreement updated the consideration payable to underwriter to $500,000 in cash, which was paid at Closing, and 300,000 shares of PubCo Class A Common Stock, to be delivered in book-entry form no later than five (5) business days following the initial filing with the SEC of a registration statement.

Additionally, pursuant to a financial advisory engagement letter, BTIG was owed $1.5 million (the "Success Fee") payable to BTIG at Closing. At Closing, the parties agreed in principle that the Success Fee would be paid within 60 days of Closing (along with other amendments, including the addition of certain rights of first refusal).

The Company issued 20,408 shares of Series B Preferred Stock and the August 2024 Warrants to purchase up to 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock to EnTrust on the Initial Closing Date and received gross proceeds of approximately $25.5 million. Gregg S. Hymowitz, a member of the Company's Board of Directors, to which position he was designated by an affiliate of the Purchaser, serves as the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of EnTrust Global Partners LLC ("EnTrust Global"), which is an affiliate of the Series A Preferred Purchaser and may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of approximately 21.6% of the Company's outstanding Common Stock. Each of EnTrust Global and Mr. Hymowitz disclaims beneficial ownership of such securities except to the extent of its or his pecuniary interest therein. Gary Fegel is also a member of the Company's Board of Directors, to which position he was designated by an affiliate of the Preferred Purchaser. As required by the Company's internal policies, this transaction was approved by the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors, which consists of independent disinterested directors, and was also approved by the Company's Board of Directors, with only disinterested directors voting (which excluded Mr. Hymowitz and Mr. Fegel).
