WHEREAS, the Underwriters and the Pass Through Trustee intend that the Net Proceeds be held in escrow by the Escrow Agent on behalf of the Investors pursuant to the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, subject to withdrawal upon request of and proper certification by the Pass Through Trustee for the purpose of purchasing Equipment Notes, and that, pending such withdrawal, the Net Proceeds be deposited by the Escrow Agent with the Depositary pursuant to this Agreement, which provides for the Depositary to pay interest for distribution to the Investors and to establish accounts from which the Escrow Agent shall make withdrawals upon request of and proper certification by the Pass Through Trustee.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the obligations contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

SECTION 1.Acceptance of Depositary; Establishment of Accounts.

Section 1.1.Acceptance of Depositary. The Depositary hereby agrees to act as depositary bank as provided herein and in connection therewith to accept all amounts to be delivered to or held by the Depositary pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Depositary further agrees to hold, maintain and safeguard the Deposits and the Accounts (as defined below) during the term of this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall not have any right to withdraw, assign or otherwise transfer moneys held in the Accounts except as permitted by this Agreement.

Section 1.2.Establishment of Accounts. The Escrow Agent hereby instructs the Depositary, and the Depositary agrees, to establish the separate deposit accounts in respect of each of the Aircraft listed onSchedule I hereto and to establish such additional separate deposit accounts as may be required in connection with the deposits contemplated bySection 2.4 hereof (each, an “Account” and collectively, the “Accounts”), each in the name of the Escrow Agent and all on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. The Depositary shall establish and maintain all Accounts at a branch of Natixis located in the United States.

SECTION 2.Deposit Mechanics.

Section 2.1.Deposits. The Escrow Agent shall direct the Underwriters to deposit with the Depositary on the date of this Agreement (the “Deposit Date”) in Federal (same day) funds by wire transfer to: the account of Natixis, acting via its New York Branch, at JP MORGAN CHASE BANK, New York, New York, ABA No. 021-000-021, For Account of Natixis, Treasury, Account #: 496-5-51925, Reference: Spirit 2015-1A INITIAL DEPOSIT ACCOUNT, and the Depositary shall accept from the Underwriters, on behalf of the Escrow Agent, the sum of US$455,622,000. Upon acceptance of such sum, the Depositary shall (i) establish each of the deposits specified inSchedule I hereto maturing in accordance with this Agreement and (ii) credit each such deposit to the related Account as set forth herein. Each deposit described in the preceding sentence and each re-deposit described in the next succeeding

Deposit Agreement (Class A)

(Spirit 2015-1 EETC)

sentence is referred to individually as a “Deposit” and such deposits and re-deposits are referred to collectively as the “Deposits.” Upon receipt of any re-deposit pursuant to Section 2.4 hereof, the Depositary shall establish a separate Account for each re-deposit maturing in accordance with this Agreement. No amount shall be deposited in any Account other than the related Deposit, in the case of the amounts and Accounts specified in Schedule I, or the applicable re-deposit, in the case of Accounts established pursuant to the preceding sentence.

Section 2.2.Interest. Each Deposit shall bear interest on the unwithdrawn amount thereof from and including the date of deposit to but excluding the date of withdrawal (it being understood that the date of withdrawal in the case of any payment by the Depositary of the amount of the Final Withdrawal (as defined below) on the Outside Termination Date (as defined below) shall be deemed to be the date of such payment) at the rate of 4.100% per annum (computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months) payable to the Paying Agent on behalf of the Escrow Agent in arrears on each Interest Payment Date (as defined below), on the date of any Final Withdrawal or on the date of any Replacement Withdrawal (as defined below), as applicable, all in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. As used in this Agreement, the term “Interest Payment Date”, with respect to each Deposit that, as of any date of determination, has not been withdrawn pursuant to a Final Withdrawal or a Replacement Withdrawal shall mean each of April 1 and October 1 commencing on April 1, 2016 and ending on the earlier of the April 1 and October 1 immediately following the date on which such Deposit is withdrawn pursuant to a Notice of Purchase Withdrawal (as defined below);provided that interest accrued on any Deposit that is withdrawn pursuant to a Notice of Purchase Withdrawal shall be paid on the next Interest Payment Date following the related Purchase Withdrawal, notwithstanding any intervening Final Withdrawal with respect to any other Deposit and notwithstanding the fact that the relevant Account may have been closed before such Interest Payment Date, but, if any intervening Replacement Withdrawal occurs before such next Interest Payment Date, such accrued interest shall, instead, be paid on the date of such Replacement Withdrawal. For the avoidance of doubt, no interest shall accrue on any Deposit from the date of withdrawal pursuant to a Notice of Purchase Withdrawal until the next Interest Payment Date or, if earlier, the date of a Replacement Withdrawal. All interest paid pursuant to this Agreement shall be non-compounding.

Section 2.3.Withdrawals.

The Escrow Agent may, by providing at least one Business Day’s prior notice of withdrawal to the Depositary in the form ofExhibit A hereto (a “Notice of Purchase Withdrawal”), withdraw the entire balance of any Deposit (but not any accrued and unpaid interest thereon) (with respect to any Deposit, such withdrawal, the “Purchase Withdrawal”), except that at any time prior to the actual withdrawal of such Deposit, the Escrow Agent or the Pass Through Trustee may, by notice to the Depositary, which notice has been actually received by the Depositary prior to such actual withdrawal, cancel such withdrawal (including on the scheduled date therefor), and thereafter such Deposit shall continue to be maintained by the Depositary in accordance with the original terms thereof. Following the Purchase Withdrawal of any Deposit, the balance in the related Account shall be reduced to zero and the Depositary shall close such Account. As used in this Agreement, “Business Day” shall

Deposit Agreement (Class A)

mean any day, other than a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which commercial banks are authorized or required by law to close in New York, New York, Miramar, Florida, or Wilmington, Delaware.

If a Notice of Final Withdrawal has not been given to the Depositary on or before the Outside Termination Date (as defined below) and there are unwithdrawn Deposits on such date, the Depositary shall pay the amount of the Final Withdrawal to the Paying Agent on the Outside Termination Date. Following the Final Withdrawal of any Deposit, the balance in the related Account shall be reduced to zero and the Depositary shall close such Account. As used in this Agreement, the term “Outside Termination Date” shall mean March 31, 2017.

(ii) The Escrow Agent may, by providing at least five Business Days’ prior notice of withdrawal to the Depositary in the form ofExhibit C hereto (a “Notice of Replacement Withdrawal”), withdraw (x) with respect to all Deposits then held by the Depositary, (1) the entire amount of such Deposits together with (2) all accrued and unpaid interest on such Deposits to but excluding the specified date of such Replacement Withdrawal (as defined below) and (y) with respect to all Deposits, if any, previously withdrawn pursuant to a Notice of Purchase Withdrawal, all accrued and unpaid interest on such Deposits to but excluding the date of the applicable Purchase Withdrawal (such withdrawal of the amounts set forth in the immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y), the “Replacement Withdrawal”), on such date as shall be specified in such Notice of Replacement Withdrawal.

Following such Amortization Withdrawal, the balance of the Deposits in the Account for such Early Delivery Aircraft shall continue to be maintained by the

Deposit Agreement (Class A)

(Spirit 2015-1 EETC)

Depositary in accordance with the original terms thereof and may be withdrawn in accordance with a Notice of Purchase Withdrawal, Final Withdrawal or Replacement Withdrawal, as the case may be.

(c)Compliance with Withdrawal Notices. If the Depositary receives a duly completed Notice of Purchase Withdrawal, Notice of Final Withdrawal or Notice of Replacement Withdrawal (each, a “Withdrawal Notice”) complying with the provisions of this Agreement, it shall make the payments specified therein in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no event shall the Depositary be required, pursuant to any Withdrawal Notice or otherwise, to make payments hereunder on or in respect of any Deposit in excess of the amount of such Deposit together with accrued interest thereon as provided in this Agreement.

Section 2.4.Other Accounts.

Any sums so received for deposit shall be established as a new Deposit and credited to a new Account, all as more fully provided inSection 2.1 hereof, and thereafter the provisions of this Agreement shall apply thereto as fully and with the same force and effect as if such Deposit had been established on the Deposit Date. The Depositary may, upon at least 14 days’ prior written notice to Spirit, the Escrow Agent and the Pass Through Trustee, require seven days’ notice for any such withdrawal

SECTION 3.Termination. This Agreement shall terminate on the fifth Business Day after the later of the date on which (i) all of the Deposits shall have been withdrawn and paid as provided herein without any re-deposit and (ii) all accrued and unpaid interest on the Deposits shall have been paid as provided herein, but in no event prior to the date on which the Depositary shall have performed in full its obligations hereunder.

All payments made by the Depositary hereunder shall be paid in United States Dollars and immediately available funds by wire transfer (i) in the cases of (w) accrued and unpaid interest on the Deposits payable underSection 2.2 hereof, (x) any Final Withdrawal, (y) Amortization Withdrawal or (z) accrued and unpaid interest on all Deposits, if any, previously withdrawn pursuant to a Notice of Purchase Withdrawal, which interest is payable pursuant to a Notice of Replacement Withdrawal, directly to the Paying Agent at Wilmington Trust, National Association, Wilmington, Delaware, ABA # [ ], Corporate Trust, Account No. [ ], Reference: Spirit Airlines 2015-1A EETC, Attn: Melinda Romay, or to such other account as the Paying Agent may direct from time to time in writing to the Depositary and the Escrow Agent, (ii) in the case of any withdrawal of one or more Deposits pursuant to a Notice of Purchase Withdrawal, directly to or as directed by the Escrow Agent as specified and in the manner provided in such Notice of Purchase Withdrawal, and (iii) in the case of any withdrawal of one or more Deposits then held by the Depositary together with accrued and unpaid interest on such Deposits pursuant to a Notice of Replacement Withdrawal, as directed by the Escrow Agent as specified and in the manner provided in such Notice of

Deposit Agreement (Class A)

Replacement Withdrawal. The Depositary hereby waives any and all rights of set-off, combination of accounts, right of retention or similar right (whether arising under applicable law, contract or otherwise) it may have against the Deposits howsoever arising. To the extent permitted by applicable law, all payments on or in respect of each Deposit shall be made free and clear of and without reduction for or on account of any and all taxes, levies or other impositions or charges (collectively, “Taxes”). However, if the Depositary shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder, the Depositary shall (i) make such deduction or withholding and (ii) pay the full amount deducted or withheld (including in respect of additional amounts described below) to the competent taxation authority. If any Taxes imposed by France, or any political subdivision thereof (other than pursuant to FATCA), are required to be deducted or withheld by the Depositary or the Paying Agent (pursuant to Section 2.04 of the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement) in respect of any sum payable hereunder, the Depositary shall pay such additional amounts as may be necessary in order that the actual amount received by the designated recipient of such sum under this Agreement or the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement after such deduction or withholding equals the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been required. If the date on which any payment due on any Deposit would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no additional interest shall accrue in respect of such extension. For purposes of thisSection 4, “FATCA” means Section 1471 through 1474 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (as amended, the “Code”), any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof or thereunder, any agreements entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b) of the Code, any intergovernmental agreements entered into in connection with any of the foregoing and any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any such intergovernmental agreement.

SECTION 5.Representation and Warranties. The Depositary hereby represents and warrants to Spirit, the Escrow Agent, the Pass Through Trustee and the Paying Agent that:

(b) it has full power, authority and legal right to conduct its business and operations as currently conducted and to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement;

(d) no authorization, consent or approval of or other action by, and no notice to or filing with (i) any United States federal or state governmental authority or

Deposit Agreement (Class A)

(Spirit 2015-1 EETC)

regulatory body or (ii) any court or governmental authority of France or any political subdivision thereof, is required for the execution, delivery or performance by it of this Agreement;

(e) neither the execution, delivery or performance by it of this Agreement, nor compliance with the terms and provisions hereof, conflicts or will conflict with or results or will result in a breach or violation of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or will require any consent or approval under, any law, governmental rule or regulation or the charter documents, as amended, or bylaws, as amended, of it or any similar instrument binding on it or any order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental authority against it or by which it or any of its properties is bound or of any indenture, mortgage or contract or other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound, or constitutes or will constitute a default thereunder or results or will result in the imposition of any lien upon any of its properties; and

(f) there are no pending or, to its knowledge, threatened actions, suits, investigations or proceedings (whether or not purportedly on behalf of it) against or affecting it or any of its property before or by any court or administrative agency which, if adversely determined, (i) would adversely affect the ability of it to perform its obligations under this Agreement or (ii) would call into question or challenge the validity of this Agreement or the enforceability hereof in accordance with the terms hereof, nor is the Depositary in default with respect to any order of any court, governmental authority, arbitration board or administrative agency so as to adversely affect its ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

SECTION 6.Transfer. Neither party hereto shall be entitled to assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement (or any interest herein) other than (i) in the case of the Escrow Agent, to a successor escrow agent under, and in accordance with, the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, and (ii) in the case of the Depositary, to a bank (as defined in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended from time to time, for purposes of Section 3(a)(2) thereof) into which the Depositary shall merge or with which the Depositary shall be consolidated. Any purported assignment in violation of the immediately preceding sentence shall be void. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and (in the case of the Escrow Agent) permitted assigns. The Depositary agrees to cause any bank into which the Depositary shall merge or with which the Depositary shall be consolidated to deliver to the Escrow Agent an agreement containing the express assumption by such successor bank as of the effective date of such merger or consolidation, as applicable, of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition of this Agreement unless such assumption shall be effective as a matter of law even in the absence of such agreement.

SECTION 7.Amendment, Etc. This Agreement may not be amended, waived or otherwise modified except by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom the amendment, waiver or other modification is sought to be enforced and signed by the Pass Through Trustee.
