(1) Approximate number of active full-time equivalent employees covered by the contract as of December 31, 2008.
(2) In May 2008, US Airways and IAM District 141 ratified a new unified agreement that moved all US Airways' fleet service
employees to one labor contract. The new contract moved pre-merger AWA fleet service employees to the terms of the pre-merger
US Airways contract and modified the existing US Airways agreement in ways that were mutually beneficial to the employees and
US Airways.
(3) In April 2008, US Airways and IAM District 142 ratified a new unified agreement that moved all US Airways' maintenance and
related employees to one labor contract. The new contract moved pre-merger AWA maintenance, stock clerk and related employees
to the higher pay scales of the pre-merger US Airways labor contract and modified the existing US Airways labor agreement in ways
that were mutually beneficial to the employees and US Airways.
(4) In May 2008, US Airways and IAM District 142 ratified a new agreement that moved all US Airways' maintenance training
instructors to one labor contract.
(5) Pilots continue to work under the terms of their separate US Airways and AWA collective bargaining agreements, as modified by the
transition agreements reached in connection with the merger.
(6) In negotiations for a single labor agreement applicable to both US Airways and AWA. On December 15, 2005, the National
Mediation Board recessed AFA's separate contract negotiations with AWA indefinitely. Flight attendants continue to work under the
terms of their separate US Airways and AWA collective bargaining agreements, as modified by the transition agreements reached in
connection with the merger.
On April 18, 2008, the National Mediation Board certified the US Airline Pilots Association ("USAPA") as the collective
bargaining representative for the pilots of the combined company, including pilot groups from both pre-merger AWA and US Airways.
Since that time, we have been engaged in negotiations with USAPA over the terms of a single labor agreement covering both groups. In
the meantime, while those negotiations are underway, each of the pilot groups continues to be covered by the ALPA collective bargaining
agreements referenced above.
