Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

              The Company's Articles of Incorporation provide that directors of the Company will not be personally liable for monetary damages to the Company for certain breaches of fiduciary duty as directors to the fullest extent allowable by Nevada law. Under Nevada law, subject to specified exceptions, or unless the articles of incorporation provide for greater individual liability, a director or officer is not individually liable to the Company or its stockholders or creditors for any damages as a result of any act or failure to act in his capacity as a director or officer unless it is proven that (a) his act or failure to act constituted a breach of his fiduciary duties as a director or officer, and (b) his breach of those duties involved intentional misconduct, fraud, or a knowing violation of law. Under current Nevada law, directors and officers would remain liable for: (i) acts or omissions which constitute a breach of fiduciary and which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law, and (ii) approval of certain illegal dividends or redemptions. In appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies or non-monetary relief, such as an injunction, may remain available to a stockholder seeking redress from any such violation.

              The Company also has the obligation, pursuant to Article Ten of the Company's By-Laws, to indemnify any officer or director of the Company for all expenses actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with any legal action brought or threatened against such person for or on account of any action or omission alleged to have been committed because such person was an officer or director, if the person acted in good faith and in a manner which the person believed to be in, or believed was not opposed to, the best interests of the Company and, with respect to criminal actions, such person had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful; provided that such indemnification shall not be made if a final adjudication establishes such person's acts or omissions involved intentional misconduct, fraud, or a knowing violation of law and was material to the cause of action.

Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.

              The following is a summary of our sales of our securities during the past three years involving sales of our securities that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended:

              In May 2005, we entered into an agreement with ComVest Allegiant Holdings, LLC, Viva Air Limited and certain other individual investors to sell, in a private placement, an aggregate of 8,635,000 shares of our preferred shares in our limited liability company predecessor at a price of $4.00 per share. The total aggregate offering price for this sale was $34,540,000. In connection with this private placement, we paid a placement fee of $1,300,000 and issued warrants to purchase 162,500 shares of our common stock to Raymond James & Associates, Inc.

              Simultaneously with the above private placement in May 2005 and as a condition to its completion, Maurice J. Gallagher, Jr. agreed to convert debt of $5,000,000 owed by us to him into 1,250,000 Series B Preferred Shares.

              During 2005 and 2006, we issued stock options to purchase an aggregate of 431,000 shares of our common stock as follows: options to purchase 339,000 shares at $3.50 per share were issued to 30 employees in February 2005; options to purchase 25,000 shares at $4.00 per share were issued to one new employee in June 2005; options to purchase 20,000 shares at $4.50 per share were issued to one new employee in September 2005; and options to purchase an aggregate of 47,000 shares at $13.00 per share were issued to three new employees in April and May, 2006. No proceeds were received by us from these option grants.

              In December 2006, we issued 100,000 shares of restricted stock to our employees under our Long-Term Incentive Plan. No proceeds were received by us from these stock issuances.

              As part of the reorganization transactions preceding our initial public offering in December 2006, we issued shares of our common stock, par value $.001 per share, to the members of Allegiant Travel Company, LLC, upon the completion of the reorganization transactions.

              All of the above-described issuances were or are expected to be exempt from registration (i) pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, or Regulation D promulgated thereunder, as transactions not involving a public offering or (ii) Rule 701 promulgated under the Securities Act or (iii) as transactions not involving a sale of securities. With respect to each transaction listed above, no general solicitation was or will be made by either the Registrant or any person acting on its behalf; the securities sold are or will be subject to transfer restrictions, and the certificates for the shares contained or will contain an appropriate legend stating such securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold absent registration or pursuant to an exemption therefrom. Except as indicated above, no underwriters were or will be involved in connection with the sales of securities referred to in this Item 15.

Item 17. Undertakings.

              Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

              The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:
