Item 8.01 Other Events.

In Mesa Air Group, Inc.’s (the “Company”) reports previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the Company reported that on November 26, 2019, it had amended and restated its Capacity Purchase Agreement with United Airlines, Inc. (“United”) to, among other things, incorporate the terms of the 14 prior amendments to that Agreement and to extend the term thereof through the addition of 20 new Embraer E175LL aircraft to the scope of such Agreement.  The Company also reported that it intended to finance and own these new aircraft and operate them for a period of twelve (12) years from the in-service date.  Following recent discussions with United, the Company has agreed that United will purchase the 20 E175LL in lieu of the Company and will lease such aircraft to the Company under terms to be agreed upon.  The Company expects to memorialize this new arrangement with United in a further amendment to the United CPA, which will be filed with the SEC as required under applicable rules and regulations.
