* Safety Risk Level 3+ events are measured per 10,000 departures. These are events that elevate risk to the
operation and include such things as significant damage to aircraft or other assets, injuries to employees or
customers, or a significant reduction in safety.
** Adjusted pre-tax profit means the net income of Alaska Air Group as computed by Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles (GAAP) and adjusted for “Excluded Items” and “Alternative Accounting Treatments.”
“Excluded Items” means (a) income taxes, (b) pretax expense under any Alaska Air Group (or subsidiary) profit
sharing, performance-based pay, operational performance rewards, variable pay, or similar programs as
determined in the discretion of the Compensation and Leadership Development Committee, and (c) special
income or expense items that, in the discretion of the Committee, should be excluded because recognizing
them would not appropriately serve the goals of the Plan. These may include, without limitation, gain or loss on
disposition of capital assets, impairments or other fleet exit costs, expenses from voluntary or involuntary
severance programs, government refunds or assistance, and the cumulative effect of accounting changes.
“Alternative Accounting Treatments” means expense or income items that, for purposes of calculating
adjusted pre-tax profit, the Company (or any subsidiary) will account for based on non-GAAP methods because,
in the discretion of the Committee, using GAAP accounting methods would not appropriately serve the goals of
the Plan. These may include, without limitation, fuel hedge accounting on an as-settled basis.
