Section 2    Financial Information

Item 2.03    Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement
of a Registrant.

Through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Allegiant Travel Company (the “Company”) has executed lease agreements through Alafco Aviation Lease and Finance Company K.S.C.P. for six Airbus A320 aircraft. Each lease is for the benefit of the particular owner for such aircraft. The aircraft are expected to be delivered to the Company between September 2017 and December 2017. Each lease has a 12-year term and includes a purchase option which can be exercised by the Company beginning 96 months after the delivery date. Upon delivery, the leases will be recorded as finance leases on the Company’s financial statements. It is expected that the Company will record approximately $155.5 million to $158.5 million as fixed assets and as a lease liability from finance leases upon delivery of the six aircraft which are the subject of these leases.
