YSAC Yellowstone Acquisition Company

You are cordially invited to attend the Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Sky Harbour Group Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”, “Sky Harbour”, “we,” “us,” or “our”) to be held on Wednesday, June 14, 2023, at 11:30 a.m. Eastern Time. The Annual Meeting will be held at our corporate offices located at Conference Room 1, Terminal M, 136 Tower Road, Westchester County Airport, White Plains, New York 10604. The following Notice of 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and accompanying Proxy Statement provide an overview of the business to be conducted at the Annual Meeting.

As we intend to discuss at the Annual Meeting, business aviation is in the midst of an historic transformation. The airline industry has faced meaningful challenges resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic, supply-chain disruptions and a severe pilot shortage. Many commercial passengers, both corporate and individual, have begun flying privately, as evidenced in the surge in FBO fuel sales, jet charter, and jet card sales. A passenger’s move from commercial to private air travel is often permanent, leading business jet manufacturers to treat the above trend as secular and, consequently, to ramp up production dramatically. Deliveries rose from approximately 640 business jets in 2020, to 700 in 2021, to 770 in 2022. The industry is now facing multi-year order backlogs, with expected 2024 deliveries of 900 business jets. The average business jet is also getting larger each year – longer in length and wider in wingspan. This means that square footage growth of the US business aviation fleet, the best proxy for incremental hangar demand, is higher than unit growth.

2022 was a transformative year for Sky Harbour as well. The Company began the year with a single pilot campus in Houston, Texas. Today, Sky Harbour is conducting parallel flight operations at full scale on three campuses – Miami, Nashville and Houston. This growth has provided the Company with the opportunity to validate its unit economics, refine its site acquisition, development and field operations processes, and to expand its team in preparation for accelerated growth. Our ambitions for the year ahead include the implementation of our site expansion strategy, maximizing the value of our upcoming vertical integration into the PEMB and hangar door manufacturing space, and providing outstanding, increasingly differentiated, service to our members. We hope to begin establishing the Home Basing Solution as a widely-recognized offering in business aviation, with Sky Harbour as the industry’s clear leader. Sky Harbour has lifted off and is commencing its climb. We are happy to have you onboard.

Thank you for your ongoing support of Sky Harbour Group Corporation.

There are two matters scheduled for a vote:

The Board recommends that you vote:

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. On the Record Date, there were [15,108,725] shares of Company’s Class A Common Stock and [42,046,356] shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock outstanding. The holders of our Common Stock have the right to one vote for each share of Common Stock they held as of the Record Date. The holders of our Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock are voting as a single class on all matters presented at the Annual Meeting.

Stockholders of Record. If shares of our Common Stock are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares of Common Stock, and the proxy materials were provided to you directly by us. As the stockholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to the individuals listed on the proxy card or to vote live at the Annual Meeting. Throughout this Proxy Statement, we refer to these registered stockholders as “stockholders of record.”

Street Name Stockholders. If shares of our Common Stock are held on your behalf in a brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered to be the beneficial owner of shares of Common Stock that are held in “street name,” and the proxy materials were forwarded to you by your broker, bank or other nominee, who is considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares of Common Stock. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other nominee as to how to vote your shares. Beneficial owners are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting.

Warrant holders will have access to the Proxy Statement and Annual Report but will not be entitled to vote.

Stockholders of record may vote over the Internet, by telephone or by mail as described below. Stockholders also may attend the Annual Meeting and vote in person. The method you use to vote will not limit your right to vote at the Annual Meeting if you decide to attend the Annual Meeting in person. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting in person, we encourage you to vote your shares before the Annual Meeting over the Internet, by phone or by mail.

As a street name stockholder, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other nominee regarding how to vote the shares in your account by following the instructions provided by your broker, bank or other nominee. You are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. The proxy materials you receive from your broker, bank or other nominee will include your unique control number.

If you return a signed and dated proxy card without marking any voting selections, your shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our Board stated above, namely: (i) “FOR” the election of all seven of our existing directors to serve until the 2024 Annual Meeting; and (ii) “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of EA as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. However, if you are a street name stockholder, you must provide voting instructions to your broker, bank or other nominee in accordance with their instructions in order for your shares to be properly voted. If any other matter is properly presented at the meeting, your proxy (one of the individuals named on your proxy card) will vote your shares using their best judgment.

As of the date of this Proxy Statement, we do not know of any matters to be raised at the Annual Meeting other than those referred to in this Proxy Statement. If other matters are properly presented at the Annual Meeting for consideration and you are a stockholder of record and have submitted a proxy card, the persons named in your proxy card will have the discretion to vote on those matters for you.

If you receive more than one set of proxy materials, your shares may be registered in more than one name or in different accounts. Please follow the voting instructions on the proxy cards in the proxy materials to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

Yes. You can revoke your proxy at any time before the final vote at the Annual Meeting. A stockholder of record may revoke a proxy in any one of three ways:

If you are a street name stockholder, you must contact your bank, broker or other nominee in order to find out how to change your vote.

Proxies may be solicited on behalf of our Board by our directors and employees. In addition to these mailed proxy materials, our directors and employees may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone, or by other means of communication. Directors and employees will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies.

We will pay for the entire cost of soliciting proxies. We may reimburse brokerage firms, banks and other agents for the cost of forwarding proxy materials to street name stockholders.

A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will be present if the holders of a majority in voting power of shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock outstanding as of the Record Date are present or represented by proxy. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted towards the quorum requirement.

A broker non-vote occurs when shares held through a broker are not voted with respect to a proposal because (1) the broker has not received voting instructions from the stockholder who beneficially owns the shares and (2) the broker lacks the authority to vote the shares at its discretion. Proposal 1 regarding the election of directors is considered a non-routine matter, and a broker will lack the authority to vote uninstructed shares at their discretion on such proposals. Proposal 2 is considered a routine matter, and as a result brokers will be permitted to exercise their discretionary authority to vote for the ratification of the appointment of auditors. We encourage you to provide voting instructions to your broker, whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting.

We will count a properly executed proxy card marked “Abstain” as present for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present, but the shares represented by that proxy card will not be voted at the Annual Meeting for the proposals so marked.

Preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. Final voting results will be available on a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC within four business days after the end of the Annual Meeting.

We believe Mr. Rivkin is qualified to serve on our Board because of his significant public company experience and his knowledge of our industry.

We have structured our corporate governance in a manner we believe closely aligns our interests with those of our stockholders. Notable features of our corporate governance structure include the following:

Our directors will stay informed about our business by attending meetings of the Board and its committees and through supplemental reports and communications. Our independent directors will meet regularly in executive sessions without the presence of our corporate officers or non-independent directors.

Under the rules of the NYSE American, a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if such person is not an officer or employee of the company or its subsidiaries and such person does not have a relationship, which, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. In 2023, our Board, following consultation with our Nominating and Governance Committee, undertook a review of the independence of each director and considered whether each director has a material relationship with the Company and Sky Harbour LLC (“Sky”) that could compromise his or her ability to exercise independent judgment in carrying out his or her responsibilities. As a result of this review, the Board determined that five of our seven current directors, Messrs, Jackson, Wellmon and Rivkin and Mmes. Nancoo and Leiponis are considered “independent directors” as defined under the listing requirements and rules of the NYSE American, and that Messrs. Jackson and Rivkin and Mmes. Nancoo and Leiponis are considered independent for purposes of audit committee service under Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1933, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). In making these determinations, the Board considered the current and prior relationships that each

non-employee director has with the Company and Sky and all other facts and circumstances the Board deemed relevant in determining independence, including the beneficial ownership of the Company’s Common Stock held by each non-employee director and the transactions involving them described in the section entitled “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions.”

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide our Board with the flexibility to combine the position of Chief Executive Officer with the position of Chairman of the Board in accordance with its determination that utilizing one or the other structure would be in our best interests. Currently, Mr. Keinan serves as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. Our Board has determined that combining the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board is in the best interests of our Company and its stockholders at this time because it promotes unified leadership by Mr. Keinan and allows for a single, clear focus for management to execute the Company’s strategy and business plans.

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that, if the Chairperson of the Board is not an independent director, the Board will annually designate a Lead Independent Director. Though annually designated, the Lead Independent Director is generally expected to serve in such capacity for more than one year. The Lead Independent Director’s responsibilities include presiding at executive sessions of the independent directors, serving as the focal point of communication to the Board regarding management plans and initiatives, ensuring that the role between Board oversight and management operations is respected, providing the medium for informal dialogue with and between independent directors, allowing for free and open communication within that group and performing other functions as requested by the Board from time to time. The Lead Independent Director may be redesignated at any time by a majority of the independent members of the Board.

Our Chairman of the Board is Tal Keinan. Under the NYSE American rules, Mr. Keinan is not an independent director. Thus, the Board has also appointed Lysa Leiponis as our Lead Independent Director. Our Board has concluded that our current leadership structure is appropriate at this time. However, our Board will continue to periodically review our leadership structure and may make such changes in the future as it deems appropriate.

One of the key functions of the Board is informed oversight of our risk management process. The Board administers this oversight function directly, with support from its three standing committees, the Audit Committee, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Compensation Committee, each of which addresses risks specific to their respective areas of oversight. In particular, our Audit Committee has the responsibility to consider and discuss our major financial risk exposures and the steps our management has taken to monitor and control these exposures, including guidelines and policies to govern the process by which risk assessment and management is undertaken. The Audit Committee also monitors compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee monitors the effectiveness of our corporate governance guidelines and code of business conduct and ethics, including whether they are successful in preventing illegal or improper liability-creating conduct. Our Compensation Committee will assess and monitor whether any of our compensation policies and programs has the potential to encourage excessive risk-taking.

We have adopted an anti-hedging policy, which is designed to prevent any of our directors, officers or employees from entering in a transaction in our securities that is designed to hedge the risks of ownership of our securities. The policy specifically prohibits the purchase or sale of puts, calls, options or other derivative securities based on our securities, as well as prohibits hedging or monetization transactions, such as forward sale contracts, by our directors, officers or employees.

Stockholders and any interested parties may communicate directly with the independent directors either by writing to the Board, a Board committee, or an individual director at the Company’s principal executive offices or by emailing info@skyharbour.group. Management receives all letters and emails sent and forwards proper communications to the Board, a Board committee, or an individual director, who facilitates an appropriate response. Management generally will not forward communications that are primarily solicitations for products or services, matters of a personal nature that are not relevant for stockholders, matters that are of a type that render them improper or irrelevant to the functioning of the Board, or requests for general information about the Company.

The Board has developed and adopted a set of corporate governance principles to provide the framework within which the Board may conduct its oversight of the business and affairs of the Company. These guidelines reflect the Board’s commitment to monitoring the effectiveness of policy and decision making both at the Board and management level, with a view to enhancing stockholder value over the long term. The Corporate Governance Guidelines set forth the practices the Board intends to follow with respect to, among other topics, the role of the Board and management, principal responsibilities and duties of the Board, Board structure and composition, Board procedures, Board committees and Board communication with Company stakeholders. A copy of our Corporate Governance Guidelines can be found on the investor relations page of our website at https://ir.skyharbour.group.

Our Board formed and constituted our Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee in January 2022. Our Board may establish other committees to facilitate the management of our business. Our Board and its committees will set schedules for meetings throughout the year and can also act by written consent from time to time, as appropriate. Our Board delegated various responsibilities and authority to its committees as generally described below. The committees regularly report on their activities and actions to the full Board. Each committee of our Board has a written charter approved by our Board. Members will serve on these committees until their resignation or until otherwise determined by our Board. The following table provides membership information for each of such Board committee as of the date of this Proxy Statement:

Our Board had six (6) meetings and executed three (3) actions by unanimous written consent in the year ended December 31, 2022. All directors attended all meetings except Mr. Rivkin who did not attend the September 21, 2022 meeting.

The standing committees of the Board consist of an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The composition of each committee and the responsibilities of each of the committees, is described below. Members will serve on these committees until their resignation or until as otherwise determined by the Board.

The Audit Committee is composed of Ms. Leiponis, Messrs. Jackson and Rivkin, with Mr. Jackson serving as chair of the committee. The Board determined that each of the foregoing meet the independence requirements of Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act and the applicable listing standards of the NYSE American. The Board determined that Mr. Jackson is an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of SEC regulations and applicable listing standards of the NYSE American. The Audit Committee’s responsibilities include:

Our Audit Committee had six (6) meetings and executed one (1) action by unanimous written consent in the year ended December 31, 2022. All Committee members attended all meetings of the Audit Committee.

The Compensation Committee is composed of Messrs. Keinan, Jackson and Wellmon and Mses. Leiponis and Nancoo, with Ms. Nancoo serving as chair of the committee. Under NYSE American listing standards, as a controlled company, the Company is not required to have a compensation committee composed entirely of independent directors. While the Company intends to rely upon this exemption for controlled companies, the Board determined that each of Mses. Leiponis and Nancoo and Messrs. Jackson and Wellmon is independent. The Compensation Committee’s responsibilities include:

The Compensation Committee may form and delegate its authority to subcommittees when appropriate.

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, Sky engaged Pearl Meyer & Partners, LLC (“PM”), a compensation consulting firm, to assess and make recommendations with respect to the amounts and types of compensation to provide our executives and non-employee directors following the Closing. PM did not provide any other services to us during 2021 or 2022 other than those for which it had been retained by Sky.

As part of the executive compensation process, our Compensation Committee reviewed compensation assessments provided by PM comparing our executive compensation to that of a group of peer companies within our industry and met with PM to discuss compensation of our executive officers, including our Chief Executive Officer, and to receive input and advice. Our Chief Executive Officer also provided recommendations to the Compensation Committee regarding the form and amount of compensation to be paid to each executive officer, other than himself. In making final executive compensation decisions for our executive officers other than our Chief Executive Officer and a recommendation to the Board regarding the compensation to be paid to our Chief Executive Officer, the Compensation Committee considered the recommendations of PM and our Chief Executive Officer (other than with respect to himself), as well as other factors such as the economic environment including the impact of inflation on our operating results, the form and amount of compensation to be paid, our achievement of performance objectives and other relevant factors.

Final deliberations and decisions regarding executive compensation were made by the Compensation Committee and the Board, and in the case of compensation to be paid to our Chief Executive Officer, without the presence of any of our executive officers. In making final decisions regarding the compensation to be paid to our Chief Executive Officer, the Board considered the same factors and gave considerable weight to the recommendations of the Compensation Committee. As part of the director compensation process, the Board considered the recommendations of PM and the Compensation Committee, as well as fees and other compensation paid to directors of a group of peer companies within our industry, the number of Board and committee meetings that our directors are expected to attend, and other factors that may be relevant.

Our Compensation Committee had three (3) meetings and executed one (1) action by unanimous written consent in the year ended December 31, 2022. All Committee members attended all meetings of the Compensation Committee.

The Company’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is composed of Messrs. Keinan, Rivkin and Mr.Rozek and Mses. Leiponis and Nancoo, with Ms. Leiponis serving as chair of the committee. Under NYSE American listing standards, as a controlled company, the Company is required to have a nominating and corporate governance committee comprised entirely of independent directors. While the Company intends to rely upon this exemption for controlled companies, the Board determined that Mses. Leiponis and Nancoo and Mr. Rivkin are independent. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s responsibilities include:

Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee had one (1) meeting and executed no actions by unanimous written consent in the year ended December 31, 2022. All Committee members attended all meetings of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

Our Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, and Nominating and Governance Committee operate under written charters adopted by the Board. These charters are posted on the “Investor Relations” page of our website, https://ir.skyharbour.group/.

There are no family relationships among any of our directors or executive officers.

Our Bylaws limit the liability of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL and provide that we will provide them with customary indemnification and advancement and prepayment of expenses. We have entered into customary indemnification agreements with each of its executive officers and directors that provide them, in general, with customary indemnification in connection with their service to us or on our behalf.

We qualify as a “controlled company” within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of the NYSE American. Under these rules, a listed company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements, including the requirements that (i) a majority of our Board consist of independent directors, (ii) the compensation committee be composed entirely of independent directors and (iii) the nominating and corporate governance committee be composed entirely of independent directors.

We rely on certain of these exemptions. As a result, we do not have a compensation committee or a nominating and corporate governance committee consisting entirely of independent directors. We may also rely on the other exemptions so long as we qualify as a controlled company. To the extent we rely on any of these exemptions, holders of Class A Common Stock will not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of the NYSE American.

We have adopted a code of conduct and ethics that applies to our directors, officers and employees in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, a copy of which is available on the investor relations page of our website at www.skyharbour.group. The Company will make a printed copy of the code of conduct and ethics available to any stockholder who so requests. Requests for a printed copy may be directed to: info@skyharbour.group.

If the Company amends or grants a waiver of one or more of the provisions of the Company’s code of ethics, it intends to satisfy the requirements under Item 5.05 of Item 8-K regarding the disclosure of amendments to or waivers from provisions that apply to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer by posting the required information on our investor relations page on our website at www.skyharbour.group. The information on this website is not part of this proxy.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has the responsibility for reviewing and recommending to the Board candidates for director positions. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider nominations made by stockholders. Whether the nominee is recommended by a stockholder or whether the recommendation comes from another source, there are no differences in the manner in which the Nomination and Corporate Governance Committee evaluates nominees. To have a candidate considered by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, a stockholder must submit such stockholder’s recommendation in writing in accordance with the procedures described in the section of this Proxy Statement entitled “Stockholder Nominations and Proposals for the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders” and must include the information specified in our Bylaws, including information concerning the nominee and information about the stockholder’s ownership of and agreements related to our stock.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, in evaluating Board candidates, considers issues such as character, integrity, judgment, diversity, age, independence, skills, education, expertise, business acumen, business experience, length of service, understanding of our business, and other commitments and the like, all in the context of an assessment of the needs of the Board at the time. The committee’s objective is to maintain a Board of individuals of the highest personal character, integrity, and ethical standards, and that reflects a range of professional backgrounds and skills relevant to our business. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not have a formal policy with respect to diversity; however, the committee considers diversity in identifying nominees for director, including personal characteristics such as race and gender, as well as diversity in the experience and skills that contribute to the Board’s performance of its responsibilities in the oversight of a global technology business.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee believes that the minimum qualifications for serving as a director are that a nominee demonstrate knowledge of our industry, accomplishment in his or her field, an ability

to make a meaningful contribution to the Board’s oversight of our business and affairs, independence under NYSE American rules, lack of conflicts of interest, and a record and reputation for integrity and ethical conduct in both his or her professional and personal activities. In addition, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee examines a candidate’s specific experiences and skills, time availability in light of other commitments, interpersonal skills, and compatibility with the Board, and ability to complement the competency and skills of the other Board members.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee annually reviews with the Board the requisite skills and characteristics of Board members, as well as the composition of the Board as a whole. This assessment includes a consideration of independence, diversity, age, skills, and experience and industry backgrounds in the context of the needs of the Board and the Company, as well as the ability of current and prospective directors to devote sufficient time to performing their duties in an effective manner. Directors are expected to exemplify the highest standards of personal and professional integrity, and to constructively challenge management through their active participation and questioning. In particular, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee seeks directors with established strong professional reputations and expertise in areas relevant to the strategy and operations of our business.

In performing its duties, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may consult with internal or external legal counsel and expert advisers.

We and certain of our stockholders who own in the aggregate 3,399,724 shares of Class A Common Stock, 41,222,212 shares of Class B Common Stock, and 7,719,779 warrants to purchase Class A Common Stock as of the record date (the “Stockholder Parties”) entered into the Stockholders’ Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, the Stockholder Parties agreed to vote all of our securities of that may be voted in the election of our directors held by such Stockholder Parties in accordance with the provisions of the Stockholders’ Agreement.

The Stockholder Parties agree that, in the event the size of the Board is increased or decreased, the number of Founder Designees that the Founder Holders are entitled to appoint to the Board shall increase or decrease proportionately to the size of the Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as the Founder Holders are entitled to nominate at least four (4) members of the Board, at least one (1) Founder Designee must (x) qualify as an “independent director” under NYSE American Rules and (y) qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of Regulation S-K of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Founder Holders’ rights to designate directors shall be terminated as set forth herein.

Rozek and shall thereafter be designated by the Sponsor Holders. The Sponsor’s Designee must at all times qualify as an “independent director” under NYSE American Rules. The “Sponsor Fall-Away Date” shall be the first date following the Closing Date on which either of the following events occurs: (A) the Sponsor Holders jointly cease to own voting stock of the Company bearing greater than thirty-three percent (33%) of the outstanding voting power of the Company held by them at the Closing; or (B) the Sponsor’s designation rights have been terminated as set forth herein.

Pursuant to the Stockholders’ Agreement, each nominee to the Board must at all times, satisfy all requirements for service as a director under applicable law, NYSE American Rules, and other qualifications as the Board may adopt. Additionally, any such members of or nominees to the Board cannot have been disqualified as a “Bad Actor” under Section 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act, involved in any event enumerated under Item 2(d) or (e) of Schedule 14D under the Exchange Act or Item 401(f) (other than Item 401(f)(1)), of Regulation S-K of the Securities Act, or be subject to any governmental order prohibiting service as a director of a public company. Further, any such nominee or director must agree to be bound to a confidentiality agreement in a form acceptable to the Company and must recuse themselves from deliberations and discussions that, in the reasonable determination of the Board, present an actual or potential conflict of interest with the Company.

In addition to any vote or consent required by the Board or stockholders of the Company, the Company may not change the size of the Board, establish any committee of the Board, change the composition or powers of any committees of the Board (subject to certain exceptions), engage any professional advisers or materially change the nature or scope of the Company’s business or enter into or abandon a line of business, in each case without the consent of a majority of the shares held by the Stockholder Parties. This consent right terminates automatically on the first date on which the combined voting power of the Stockholder Parties no longer exceeds 50% of the total voting power of the Company then outstanding.

For so long as the Sponsor Holders continue to own voting stock of the Company bearing at least twenty percent (20%) of the outstanding voting power of the Company held by them at the Closing, the Sponsor shall be entitled to designate one individual to receive notice of and to attend Board meetings on a non-voting basis (a “Board Observer”). Board Observers will receive copies of any materials distributed to members of the Board in connection with any meeting or consent solicitation. The Board may exclude such Board Observer from any portion of the Board meeting or Board materials where, in the exercise of its reasonable discretion, it believes such exclusion is necessary to preserve attorney-client privilege.

Subject to certain exceptions, each Stockholder Party’s obligation to vote its shares of the Company in accordance with the Stockholder Agreement is terminated on the first date on which such Stockholder Party no longer has the right to designate a director to the Board. Certain other obligations of each Stockholder Party terminate automatically when such Stockholder Party ceases to own shares of the Company.

Currently, our officers are appointed by the Board and serve at the discretion of the Board, rather than for specific terms of office. Our Board is authorized to appoint persons to the offices set forth in our Bylaws as it deems appropriate. Our Bylaws provide that our officers may consist of a Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Vice Presidents, Secretary, Treasurer, Assistant Secretaries and such other offices as may be determined by the Board.

Because of their ownership block, our directors and executive officers as a group may be able to effectively influence the outcome of all matters requiring approval by our stockholders, including amendments to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and approval of significant corporate transactions.

As an emerging growth company, the Company will be exempt from certain requirements related to executive compensation, including the requirements to hold a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and to provide information relating to the ratio of total compensation of the Company’s chief executive officer to the median of the annual total compensation of all of the Company’s employees, each as required by the Investor Protection and Securities Reform Act of 2010, which is part of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

In March 2021, Due West received 15,000 Series A Preferred Units in exchange for an investment in Sky of $15 million. The Series A Preferred Units converted into Sky Common Units and an equivalent number of shares of Class B Common Stock upon completion of the Business Combination.

We have adopted a written policy relating to the approval of related person transactions. A “related person transaction” is a transaction or arrangement or series of transactions or arrangements in which we participate (whether or not we are a party) and a related person has a direct or indirect material interest in such transaction. Our Audit Committee will review and approve or ratify all relationships and related person transactions between us and (i) our directors, director nominees or executive officers, (ii) any record or beneficial owner of 5% or more of our common stock or (iii) any immediate family member of any person specified in (i) and (ii). The Audit Committee will review all related person transactions and, where the Audit Committee determines that such transactions are in our best interests, approve such transactions in advance of such transaction being given effect.

As set forth in the related person transaction policy, in the course of its review and approval or ratification of a related party transaction, the Audit Committee will, in its judgment, consider in light of the relevant facts and circumstances whether the transaction is, or is not inconsistent with, our best interests, including consideration of various factors enumerated in the policy.

Any member of the Audit Committee who is a related person with respect to a transaction under review will not be permitted to participate in the discussions or approval or ratification of the transaction. Our policy also includes certain exceptions for transactions that need not be reported and provides the Audit Committee with the discretion to pre-approve certain transactions.

Our Audit Committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our officers or directors, or our or their affiliates.

Mr. Keinan with a discretionary target annual incentive bonus equal to 100% of his base salary (the “Annual Bonus”) subject to certain performance metrics. Mr. Keinan’s actual Annual Bonus paid may be more or less than the target bonus. The Annual Bonus may be periodically reviewed and increased (but not decreased) at the discretion of the Company. The Keinan Employment Agreement further provides for (i) reasonable business expense reimbursements, (ii) reimbursement of Mr. Keinan’s reasonable tax preparation expenses and (iii) other standard employee benefits the Company makes available to similarly situated employees.

Equity Awards. Under the Keinan Employment Agreement, Mr. Keinan is entitled to a one-time, time-based restricted stock unit grant (the “RSU”) under our 2022 Incentive Award Plan (the “2022 Plan”). The RSU will vest over four years with 25% of the RSUs vesting on the first anniversary of the grant date and the remaining 75% of the RSUs will vest in equal monthly installments thereafter. Additionally, the RSUs will vest in full upon a Change in Control (as defined the 2022 Plan), provided Mr. Keinan executes a general release of claims and covenant not to sue. The RSUs will also be subject to vesting in full upon retirement if Mr. Keinan’s age plus years of service on his retirement date are equal to or greater than 65 (the “Rule of 65”). The RSUs will be subject to additional terms and conditions under the 2022 Plan.

Additionally, as discussed below, under the Keinan Employment Agreement, all stock option, restricted stock units and other equity-based incentive awards subject to time-based vesting criteria will vest in full (or become payable immediately, as the case may be) upon a termination of Mr. Keinan’s employment by us for any reason (i) other than “Cause;” (ii) other than death; (iii) other than “Disability”; or if Mr. Keinan resigns for “Good Reason” (as those terms are defined in the Keinan Employment Agreement).

Obligations Upon Certain Termination Events. Under the Keinan Employment Agreement, if we terminate Mr. Keinan’s employment for any reason (i) other than “Cause;” (ii) other than death; (iii) other than “Disability”; or if Mr. Keinan resigns for “Good Reason,” we will pay him, subject to the restrictions noted below, (i) a continuation of base salary for two years after the date of termination; (ii) an amount equal to the highest Annual Bonus paid to Mr. Keinan within the three years preceding termination, each (i) and (ii) in accordance with our ordinary payroll practices, and (iii) full vesting of any then-unvested, time-based equity awards.

On March 22, 2021, Sky entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Saltzman (the “Saltzman Employment Agreement”), which does not provide for potential payments upon a termination or change of control. In 2021, Mr. Saltzman received an annual salary of $400,000 and was eligible to receive an annual bonus. Mr. Saltzman has entered into Sky’s standard employee covenants agreement containing customary restrictive covenants. On March 24, 2022, we entered into an amendment to the Saltzman Employment Agreement in connection with his appointment as Chief Operating Officer.

covenants. On March 24, 2022, we entered into an amendment to the Gonzalez Employment Agreement in connection with his appointment as Chief Financial Officer.

Compensation Arrangements. The Saltzman and Gonzalez Amendments provide that Messrs. Saltzman’s and Gonzalez’s base salary is subject to periodic review and increase (but not decrease) by the Compensation Committee. In the case of Mr. Saltzman, such periodic review and increase shall not commence until March 29, 2024. The Saltzman and Gonzalez Amendments further provide for performance metrics with respect to each for Messrs. Saltzman’s and Gonzalez’s annual bonus. The Saltzman and Gonzalez Amendments further provide for (i) reasonable business expense reimbursements; (ii) reimbursement of Messrs. Saltzman and Gonzalez’s reasonable tax preparation expenses and (iii) other standard employee benefits we make available to similarly situated employees. Existing compensation arrangements remain otherwise unaltered.

Saltzman or Gonzalez, subject to the restrictions noted below, a continuation of base salary equal to 24 months, paid in equal installments in accordance with our ordinary payroll practices. If we waive the restrictions in (i) and (ii) below in full or in part, the number of months of base salary paid as severance shall be adjusted to match such restriction period. For example, we may opt to require only a 12-month restriction period, in which case, Messrs. Saltzman or Gonzalez shall receive payment equal to that 12-month period.

General Release and Restrictive Covenants. In addition, the payment of all severance benefits to Messrs. Saltzman or Gonzalez is subject to each delivering an executed and irrevocable confidential separation agreement and general release of claims and Messrs. Saltzman’s or Gonzalez’s compliance with the following restrictive covenants:

Obligations in Connection with Death or Disability. Under the Second Gonzalez Amendment, in the event of Mr. Gonzalez’s death or disability, the Company will provide Mr. Gonzalez with full vesting of any then-unvested, time-based equity awards, subject to the same general release and restrictive covenants provisions in the Amendment for all other severance benefits.

The Keinan Employment Agreement and the Saltzman and Gonzalez Amendments each provide that additional equity grants may be provided at the discretion of our Board or Compensation Committee. Such equity grants, if any, are subject to the Rule of 65 and additional terms and conditions as determined by our Board or Compensation Committee at time of grant, pursuant to the terms of the 2022 Plan.

The Keinan Employment Agreement and the Saltzman and Gonzalez Amendments each provide that any amount payable under the employment agreements are subject to claw-back or disgorgement, to the extent applicable, under (i) the policies or any claw-back policy adopted by us, (ii) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, as amended, and rules, regulations, and binding, published guidance thereunder and (iii) the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

Our named executive officers did not participate in, or otherwise receive any benefits under, any pension or retirement plan or non-qualified deferred compensation plan sponsored by us during the years ended December 31, 2022 or 2021.

As previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on January 31, 2022, on January 25, 2022, the Audit Committee approved the engagement of EA as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm to audit our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ending December 31, 2022.

EA served as an independent registered public accounting firm of Sky prior to the Business Combination. Accordingly, KPMG LLP (“KPMG”), YAC’s independent registered public accounting firm prior to the Business Combination, was informed that it would be replaced by EA as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm following completion of its audit of YAC’s financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021, which consists only of the accounts of the pre-Business Combination special purpose acquisition company, YAC.

The audit report of KPMG on YAC’s financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainties, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the year ended December 31, 2021 and the subsequent interim period through January 25, 2022, there were no (1) disagreements between YAC and KPMG on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to their satisfaction would have caused them to make reference in connection with their opinion to the subject matter of the disagreements and (2) no “reportable events” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act) except as described in the following paragraph.

We have provided KPMG with a copy of the foregoing disclosures and have requested that KPMG furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the Company set forth above. A copy of KPMG’s letter dated January 31, 2022 is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to our Current Report on Form 8-K dated January 31, 2022. We also provided each of EA and KPMG with a copy of the foregoing additional disclosures and an opportunity to each to present its views in a brief statement to be included in this Proxy Statement if it believes that any of the statements made by the Company under this section “Change in Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm” are incorrect or incomplete. Each of EA and KPMG advised us that it reviewed the disclosures under this section “Change in Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm” and has no basis on which to submit such a statement.

The formal written charter for our Audit Committee requires that the audit committee (i) review and approve, in advance, the scope and plans for the audits and the audit fees and (ii) approve in advance (or, where permitted under the rules and regulations of the SEC, subsequently) all non-audit and tax services to be performed by the

independent auditor that are not otherwise prohibited by law or regulations and any associated fees. Our Audit Committee may, in accordance with applicable law, establish pre-approval policies and procedures for the engagement of independent accountants to render services to the Company.

Prior to the Business Combination, all of the services listed in the table above provided by KPMG were approved by YAC in accordance with its policies then in effect. All of the services provided by KPMG subsequent to the Business Combination were approved by our Audit Committee.
