Annual Incentive Plan: Goal Setting In-Season Engagement 2016

©2012 Atlas Air Worldwide Holdings, Inc. Our EPS metric under the 2015 Annual Incentive Plan (AIP) is designed to be rigorous The EPS target amount of $4.10 in 2015 represented a 34% increase over $3.05, our target amount in 2014 The EPS target amount of $4.10 in 2015 represented a 42% increase over $2.88, the Company’s 2014 EPS achievement, excluding a $1.37 tax planning benefit not expected to recur The EPS metric under the AIP is not benefited by share repurchases See the following slides for more detail Rigorous Goal Setting: 2015 AIP Target

2015 AIP Target EPS Accounts for One-Time Tax Benefit in 2014 2014 GAAP EPS was $4.25, or $4.22 excluding the impact of share repurchases (as required by the AIP) GAAP EPS included $1.37 per share (calculated without any impact of share repurchases) related to beneficial tax planning regarding the treatment of extraterritorial income from the offshore leasing of certain of our aircraft. The tax benefit: Involved a significant amount of work, is cash flow positive and EPS accretive, and benefits all shareholders Was not expected to recur Excluding the $1.37 benefit related to the 2014 tax planning item, reported EPS would have been $2.88 2015 AIP Target of $4.10 per share was 42% greater than $2.88 per share, excluding the tax planning benefit for an “apples-to-apples basis” This significantly higher target was set with the expectation of an increase in global airfreight demand of just 4-5% and continuing decline in military demand Actual global airfreight demand ultimately increased just 2.2% in 2015 In this environment, the 2015 AIP Target EPS of $4.10 was quite rigorous
