Introductory Note

As previously reported, on November 29, 2011, AMR Corporation (“AMR” or the “Company”), its principal subsidiary, American Airlines, Inc. (“American”) and certain of the Company’s other direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries, filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York.

On February 13, 2013, AMR, US Airways Group, Inc. (“US Airways”), and AMR Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of AMR (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”), which contemplates the merger of Merger Sub with and into US Airways, with US Airways surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”).

On September 20, 2013, AMR, US Airways and Merger Sub entered into a Third Amendment to the Merger Agreement (the “Third Amendment”). The Third Amendment extends the date on which either AMR or US Airways may terminate the Merger Agreement to the earlier of (A) the later of (i) January 18, 2014 and (ii) the fifteenth (15) day after the United States District Court for the District of Columbia (the “District Court”) enters an order in the trial in the proceeding captioned United States of America, et al. v. US Airways Group, Inc. and AMR Corporation (the “Trial”) in favor of American and US Airways, provided that such order is entered on or prior to January 17, 2014, and (B) five (5) days after the District Court enters a final, but appealable, order permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting consummation of the Merger following the Trial.

The Third Amendment also amends the definition of “Plan” in the Merger Agreement to specifically exclude as a condition to the effectiveness of the Plan that certain Letter Agreement, dated as of February 13, 2013, among AMR, American and Thomas W. Horton.

The foregoing description of the Third Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Third Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
