1 COVID - 19’s impact on MPH cash flows As demand for redemptions has decreased, miles returned to customers’ accounts for cancelled flights are exceeding new bookings ▪ Miles earned on United are down ~97% for April and May combined, which negatively impacts cash inflows for MPH – However, members are still engaging with United’s third parties ▪ ~83% decline in miles redeemed, lowering MPH’s cash outflows ▪ ~126% increase in miles returned due to cancellations, resulting in cash flowing back to MPH from United ▪ Importantly, miles returned were nearly 3x greater than miles redeemed (millions) Apr. and May (cumulative) 2019 Apr. and May (cumulative) 2020 YOY % Cash collections ~$870 ~$455 ~(50%) Actual Miles redeemed ~(135%) Less: redemption cost ~$515 ~($165) ~(130%) Less: Operating expenses (Excl.
