Dear Fellow Shareholders,

Sun Country is committed to doing the right thing for our shareholders, customers and team members. That starts with our number one priority – safety. I’d like to recognize our employees who prioritize a safe operation every flight, every day. Their dedication and professionalism contributed to a safe and successful 2023.

I’d also like to express our company’s deep appreciation for our customers and their continued loyalty to Sun Country. We believe we deliver great value through our low fares, nonstop service to popular destinations, and an on-board experience that exceeds our low-cost competitors, including state-of-the-art seating, comfortable recline, in-seat power in most seats, free in-flight entertainment to our customers’ devices and complimentary beverages. We are proud to partner with many Minnesota and Midwest-based companies to highlight their local products on our menu.

To our shareholders, thank you for believing in our diversified business model combining scheduled service with charter and cargo lines, which delivers industry leading margins and strategic flexibility. We are focused on value creation in each of our lines of business. We see significant growth opportunities for our scheduled service during peak months. Further, we continue to increase charter flying in the months of reduced demand for scheduled services, particularly the months of May, September and October. Cargo services contribute significant stability to the company with consistent flying through all seasons and economic environments.

2023 highlights

Aircraft growth

In April 2023, we acquired five 737-900ERs which will remain out on operating lease until they are inducted into our passenger fleet beginning in late 2024 and continuing through 2025. We also acquired two 737-800s in 2023 which will also remain out on lease. These acquisitions provide us with revenue and growth aircraft for the next few years and increase our fleet to 63 aircraft with no incremental capital outlays.

Customer experience

We continued to make investments to improve on our customer’s experience. In 2023, we rolled out new automation tools giving our passengers the ability to manage their options during travel disruptions on their own and new baggage scanning which has improved our missed baggage ratio. Launching soon, our new mobile app will further enhance the Sun Country customer experience. Travelers will be able to book travel, check-in for flights, use their mobile boarding pass, and manage their trips on iPhone and Android mobile devices. These initiatives not only improve the customer experience; they make us a more cost-efficient airline.

Thank you for your investment in our airline. We hope you will participate in our annual stockholders’ meeting.

Who can vote at the Annual Meeting?

Anyone owning shares of common stock at the close of business on April 15, 2024, the Record Date for this year’s Annual Meeting, is entitled to attend and vote on all items properly presented at the Annual Meeting.

1

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name. If, at the close of business on the Record Date, your shares were registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, then you are a stockholder of record. As a stockholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to the individuals listed on the proxy card, to vote electronically at the Annual Meeting, or by Internet or by telephone, or, if you received paper copies of the proxy materials by mail, to vote by mail by following the instructions on the proxy card or voting instruction card.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker or Bank. If, at the close of business on the Record Date, your shares were held, not in your name, but rather in an account at a broker, bank, or other nominee, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and the Notice is being forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank, or other nominee regarding how to vote the shares in your account by following the voting instructions your broker, bank, or other nominee provides. You are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares electronically at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank, or other nominee.

How do I vote?

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name. If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote in one of the following ways:

During the Annual Meeting—go to www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/SNCY2024.

Beneficial Owner of Shares Held in “Street Name”: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Bank or Other Nominee. If you are a beneficial owner of shares held of record by a broker, bank, or other nominee, you will receive voting instructions from your broker, bank, or other nominee. You must follow the voting instructions provided by your broker, bank, or other nominee in order to instruct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote your shares. Beneficial owners of shares should generally be able to vote by returning the voting instruction card to their broker, bank, or other nominee, or by telephone or via the Internet. However, the availability of telephone or Internet voting will depend on the voting process of your broker, bank, or other nominee. As discussed above, if you are a beneficial owner, you may not vote your shares electronically at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank, or other nominee. Note that your broker, bank, or other nominee may have an earlier deadline for submission of votes than what we will utilize for holders of record.

If you choose to access the proxy materials and/or vote over the Internet, you are responsible for Internet access charges you may incur. If you choose to vote by telephone, you are responsible for telephone charges you may incur.

Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy?

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name. If you are a stockholder of record, you can change your vote or revoke your proxy by:

Beneficial Owner of Shares Held in “Street Name”: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Bank or Other Nominee. If you are the beneficial owner of your shares, you must contact the broker, bank, or other nominee holding your shares and follow their instructions to change your vote or revoke your proxy.

Who is asking me for my vote?

The Company is soliciting your proxy on behalf of the Board of Directors. The Company will bear the cost of soliciting proxies and will reimburse brokerage firms and others for expenses involved in forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners or soliciting their execution. In addition to solicitations by mail, the Company, through its directors and employees, may solicit proxies in person, by telephone or by electronic means. Such directors and employees will not receive any special remuneration for these efforts.

What is the effect of giving a proxy?

Proxies are solicited by and on behalf of our Board of Directors. The person named in the proxy has been designated as a proxy for the Annual Meeting by our Board of Directors. When proxies are properly dated, executed, and returned, the shares represented by such proxies will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the instruction of the stockholder on such proxy. If no specific instructions are given, however, the shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our Board of Directors on the proposals as described below and, if any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, the shares will be voted in accordance with the proxy’s judgment.

What are my voting rights?

Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote on each matter properly presented at the Annual Meeting. At the close of business on April 15, 2024, the Record Date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting, there were 52,659,305 shares of common stock outstanding. A list of all record stockholders as of the Record Date will be available during ordinary business hours at the Company’s principal place of business located at 2005 Cargo Road, Minneapolis, MN 55450, from Rose Neale, General Counsel, at least 10 days before the Annual Meeting.

Why did I receive a one-page Notice in the mail regarding the Internet Availability of Proxy Materials instead of a full printed set?

In accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and to lower the cost of delivery and reduce the environmental impact of our Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the Company is providing access to its proxy materials via the Internet and will not send its proxy materials via mail or electronically by email unless appropriately requested. Accordingly, the Company is mailing a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials to stockholders of record and beneficial owners. All stockholders will have the ability to access the proxy materials on the website referred to in the Notice or to request a printed set of the proxy materials. Instructions on how to access the proxy materials via the Internet, to request a printed set or to request proxy materials be emailed to you may be found in the Notice. In addition, stockholders may request to receive proxy materials in printed form by mail or electronically by email on an ongoing basis.

Where can I view the proxy materials on the Internet?

The Notice provides you with instructions on how to:

You can view the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting online at www.proxyvote.com and at ir.suncountry.com.

What is the quorum requirement for the Annual Meeting?

A quorum is the minimum number of shares required to be present or represented at the Annual Meeting for the meeting to be properly held. The presence, represented in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority in voting power of our outstanding common stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will constitute a quorum to transact business at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions, “WITHHOLD” votes, and “broker non-votes” are counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. If there is no quorum, the chairperson of the meeting may adjourn the meeting to another time or place.

What are broker non-votes?

Broker non-votes occur when a beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” does not give instructions to the broker, bank, or other nominee, as applicable, as to how to vote on matters deemed “non-routine” and there is at least one “routine” matter to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting. Generally, if shares are held in “street name,” the beneficial owner of the shares is entitled to give voting instructions to the broker, bank, or other nominee holding the shares. If the beneficial owner does not provide voting instructions, the broker, bank, or other nominee can still vote the shares with respect to matters that are considered to be “routine,” but not with respect to “non-routine” matters. In the event that a broker, bank, or other nominee votes shares on the “routine”

4

matters but does not vote shares on the “non-routine” matters, those shares will be treated as broker non-votes with respect to the “non-routine” proposals. Accordingly, if you own shares through a nominee, such as a broker or bank, please be sure to instruct your nominee how to vote to ensure that your vote is counted on each of the proposals.

What matters are considered “routine” and “non-routine”?

The ratification of the appointment of KPMG as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 (Proposal No. 4) is the only “routine” matter to be brought before shareholders at the meeting. The reelection of Class III directors (Proposal No. 1), the non-binding (advisory) vote on the frequency of future advisory votes to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers (Proposal No. 2), and the non-binding (advisory) vote to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers (Proposal No. 3), are considered “non-routine” matters.

What are the effects of abstentions and broker non-votes?

An abstention represents a stockholder’s affirmative choice to decline to vote on a proposal. If a stockholder indicates on its proxy card that it wishes to abstain from voting its shares, or if a broker, bank, or other nominee causes abstentions to be recorded for shares, these shares will be considered present and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. As a result, abstentions will be counted for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum and will also count as votes “against” a proposal in cases where approval of the proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting (Proposals No. 2, 3 and 4). However, because the outcome of Proposal No. 1 (reelection of directors) will be determined by a plurality vote, you may only vote “FOR” or “WITHHOLD” authority to vote for each of the nominees. If you “withhold” authority to vote with respect to one or more director nominees, your vote will have no effect on the election of such nominees.

Broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of calculating whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting. Broker non-votes will not be counted for purposes of determining the number of votes cast on a proposal because they are “not entitled to vote” on “non-routine” matters. Therefore, a broker non-vote will make a quorum more readily attainable but will not otherwise affect the outcome of the vote on any of the proposals.

What is the voting requirement to approve each of the proposals?

Proposal No. 1: Reelection of Class III Directors. Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast (meaning that the three director nominees who receive the highest number of shares voted “FOR” their election are elected as Class III directors). You may vote (i) “FOR” for each director nominee or (ii) “WITHHOLD” for each director nominee. Because the outcome of this proposal will be determined by a plurality vote, shares voted “WITHHOLD” will not prevent a director nominee from being elected as a director. Broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of voting on this proposal.

Proposal No. 2: Non-Binding (Advisory) Vote on the Frequency of Future Advisory Votes to Approve the Compensation of our Named Executive Officers. The approval, on a non-binding, advisory basis, of the frequency of future advisory votes to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote. You may vote for every “1 YEAR,” “2 YEARS,” “3 YEARS” or “ABSTAIN” on this proposal. Abstentions will count towards the quorum requirement for the Annual Meeting and will have the same effect as a vote “against” the proposal. Broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of voting on this proposal. If none of the three frequencies (1 year, 2 years or 3 years) receives the vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote, then the Board of Directors will consider the frequency that received the highest number of such affirmative votes to be the recommendation of shareholders.

5

Proposal No. 3: Non-Binding (Advisory) Vote to Approve the Compensation of our Named Executive Officers. The approval, on a non-binding, advisory basis, of the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote. You may vote “FOR,” “AGAINST,” or “ABSTAIN” on this proposal. Abstentions will count towards the quorum requirement for the Annual Meeting and will have the same effect as a vote “against” the proposal. Broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of voting on this proposal.

Proposal No. 4: Ratification of Appointment of KPMG. The ratification of the appointment of KPMG requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote. You may vote “FOR,” “AGAINST,” or “ABSTAIN” on this proposal. Abstentions will count towards the quorum requirement for the Annual Meeting and will have the same effect as a vote against the proposal. Broker non-votes will also count towards the quorum requirement.

Who will count the votes?

A representative of Broadridge Financial Solutions will tabulate the votes and act as inspector of elections.

May I vote confidentially?

Yes. Our policy is to keep your vote confidential, except as otherwise legally required, to allow for the tabulation and certification of votes and to facilitate proxy solicitation.

What if additional matters are presented at the Annual Meeting?

We do not know of any business to be considered at the Annual Meeting other than the proposals described in this proxy statement. If any other business is presented at the Annual Meeting, your properly executed proxy gives authority to Rose Neale, our General Counsel, to vote on such matters at her discretion.

Where can I find the voting results from the Annual Meeting?

We will announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting and will publish final results in a Current Report on Form 8-K that we will file with the SEC within four business days after the date of the Annual Meeting.

How can I obtain information about the Company?

A copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 is available on our website at www.ir.suncountry.com. Stockholders may also obtain a free copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, including the financial statements and the financial statement schedules, by sending a request in writing to Christopher Allen, Investor Relations, Sun Country Airlines Holdings, Inc., 2005 Cargo Road Minneapolis, MN 55450. Capitalized terms used in, but not defined in, this proxy statement have meanings as defined in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

PROPOSAL 1—REELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Our Board of Directors is divided into three classes. The members of each class serve staggered, three-year terms. Upon the expiration of the term of a class of directors, directors in that class will be elected for three-year terms at the annual meeting of stockholders in the year in which their term expires. Under the Company’s bylaws and certificate of incorporation, the Board of Directors can change the number of directors comprising the entire Board of Directors so long as the number is not less than three nor more than fifteen. Any additional directorships resulting from an increase in the number of directors will be distributed among the three classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of one-third of our directors. The Board of Directors currently consists of eight directors.

All of the nominees for Class III directors are members of the current Board of Directors. If any nominee for election to the Board of Directors should be unable to accept nomination or election as a director, which is not expected, your proxy may be voted for a substitute or substitutes designated by the Board of Directors or the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors may be reduced in accordance with the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws.

Required Vote

Class III directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting (meaning that the three director nominees who receive the highest number of shares voted “FOR” their election are elected as Class III directors). Shares voted “WITHHOLD” will not prevent a director nominee from being elected as a director. Broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of voting on this proposal. Brokers do not have discretion to vote any uninstructed shares over the election of directors.

Certain Stockholder Rights to Nominate Directors

Under our Stockholders Agreement (as defined below), SCA Horus Holdings, LLC (the “Apollo Stockholder”), which is an affiliate of certain investment funds managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, Inc. (“Apollo”), has the right, but not the obligation, at any time until Apollo and its affiliates, including the Apollo Stockholder, no longer beneficially own at least 5% of our issued and outstanding common stock, to nominate a number of directors comprising a percentage of our Board of Directors in accordance with their beneficial ownership of our outstanding common stock (rounded up to the nearest whole number). We refer to the directors nominated by the Apollo Stockholder based on such percentage ownership as the “Apollo Directors.” As of the date of this proxy statement, there are no Apollo Directors on our Board. See “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions—Stockholders Agreement.”

For so long as Amazon.com Services, LLC (together with affiliates, “Amazon”) holds the warrants granted to it in 2019 (the “2019 Warrants”) or any shares of common stock issued upon exercise of the 2019 Warrants and the Air Transportation Services Agreement (“ATSA”) with Amazon remains in effect, Amazon will have the right to nominate a member or an observer to our Board of Directors. We refer to the director nominated by Amazon, if any, as the “Amazon Director.” As of the date of this proxy statement Amazon has not exercised its right to nominate a member or an observer to our Board of Directors.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Director Independence

The Nasdaq listing standards require that a majority of the Board of Directors be independent. No director qualifies as independent unless the Board of Directors affirmatively determines that the director has no relationship which would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. The Board of Directors broadly considers all relevant facts and circumstances relative to independence and considers the issue not merely from the standpoint of the director, but also from the viewpoint of persons or organizations with which the director has an affiliation. The Board of Directors has determined that Marion Blakey, Thomas C. Kennedy, Patrick O’Keeffe, Gail Peterson, Kerry Philipovitch and Jennifer Vogel are all independent directors, as such term is defined by the applicable rules and regulations of Nasdaq.

Board of Directors Leadership Structure and Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

The Board of Directors has an oversight role, as a whole and also at the committee level, in overseeing management of the Company’s risks. The Board of Directors regularly reviews information regarding our credit, liquidity and operations, including the risks associated with each. Our Board of Directors is also responsible for establishing accountability for our executive officers and ensuring reasonable internal controls are in place, including processes and procedures for detecting, containing, evaluating and responding to cybersecurity incidents. The Board of Directors is informed of the cybersecurity threats potentially facing the Company and the Company’s prevention activities on a quarterly basis, or more frequently if needed. More information on the Company’s cybersecurity policy is included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. The Safety Committee is responsible for overseeing the risks associated with our operations, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee is responsible for overseeing executive officer succession planning, the management of risks relating to executive compensation plans and arrangements and reviewing the Company’s human resources policies and practices and overseeing the risks related thereto, the Audit Committee oversees the management of financial risks and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee oversees Board of Directors succession planning and governance policy and practices. While each committee is responsible for evaluating certain risks and overseeing the management of such risks, the entire Board of Directors is regularly informed through committee reports about such risks.

Our Board of Directors does not currently have a policy as to whether the role of Chair of our Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer should be separate. Our Board of Directors believes that the Company and its stockholders are best served by maintaining the flexibility to determine whether the Chair and Chief Executive Officer positions should be separated or combined at a given point in time in order to provide appropriate leadership for us as circumstances change.

The Board of Directors understands that no single approach to board leadership is universally accepted and that the appropriate leadership structure may vary based on several factors, such as a company’s size, industry, operations, history and culture. Accordingly, our Board of Directors, with the assistance of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, assesses its leadership structure in light of these factors and the current environment to achieve the optimal model for us and for our stockholders. Currently the committee and Board believe the best leadership structure for our Board is to split the position of CEO and Chair of the Board and to have an independent board member appointed as Chair.

The composition of the Board of Directors, the tenure of the directors with the Company, the overall experience of the directors and the experience that the directors have had with the Chair and the executive management team permit and encourage each member to take an active role in all discussions, and each member does actively participate in all substantive discussions. We believe that our current Board of Directors leadership structure is serving the Company well at this time.

Compensation and Human Resources Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

Our Compensation and Human Resources Committee consists of Marion Blakey, as chairperson, Patrick O’Keeffe and Jennifer Vogel, each of whom is an independent director, as defined under the rules and regulations of Nasdaq. None of these directors has ever served as an officer or employee of the Company. During 2023, none of the members of the Compensation and Human Resources Committee had any relationship with the Company requiring disclosure under Item 404 of Regulation S-K. None of our executive officers served as a member of the board of directors or Compensation and Human Resources Committee, or similar committee, of

15

any other company whose executive officer(s) served as a member of our Board of Directors or our Compensation and Human Resources Committee.

Identifying and Evaluating Candidates for the Board of Directors

In considering possible candidates to serve on the Board of Directors, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee takes into account and considers each candidate’s qualifications, qualities and skills, considers the entirety of each candidate’s credentials and further reviews these in the context of the current make-up of the Board of Directors. In fulfilling its responsibilities, the Committee shall strive to have the composition of the Board reflect diversity, balance and effectiveness, each in its broadest sense (e.g., taking into consideration the communities served by the Company, skill sets, experience, tenure, gender, race, ethnicity, as well as breadth of knowledge, background and perspective) and consistent with the best interests of the Company.

The Company may engage executive search firms to assist the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee in identifying potential new directors and in the past has engaged executive search firms in identifying potential new directors.

Code of Conduct and Ethics

Our Board of Directors has adopted a code of conduct and ethics that applies to all of our directors, officers and employees and is intended to comply with the relevant listing requirements for a code of conduct as well as qualify as a “code of ethics” as defined by the rules of the SEC. The code of conduct and ethics contains general guidelines for conducting our business consistent with the highest standards of business ethics. We intend to disclose future amendments to certain provisions of our code of conduct and ethics, or waivers of such provisions applicable to any principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer and controller, or persons performing similar functions, and our directors, on our website at https://www.ir.suncountry.com. The code of conduct and ethics is available on our website.

Executive Sessions of Non-Management Directors

The non-management directors of the Company meet in executive sessions without management on a regular basis.

Compensation Risk Assessment

We believe that the performance goals and incentive plan structures generally established under the Company’s executive, annual and long-term incentive programs do not contribute to excessive risk-taking by our senior executives or employees. The approved goals under our incentive programs are consistent with our financial operating plans and strategies, and these programs are discussed and reviewed by the Compensation and Human Resources Committee. The Company’s compensation systems are balanced, rewarding both short-term and long-term performance, and its performance goals are team oriented, rather than individually focused, and include measurable factors and objective criteria. The Compensation and Human Resources Committee is actively engaged in setting compensation systems, monitoring those systems during the year, and using discretion in making rewards, as necessary. As a result of the procedures and practices described above, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee believes that the Company’s compensation policies and practices for its employees do not encourage risk-taking that is reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Communications with the Board of Directors

Stockholders and other interested parties desiring to communicate directly with the full Board of Directors, the Audit Committee, the non-management directors as a group or with any individual director or directors may

16

do so by sending such communication in writing, addressed to the attention of the intended recipient(s), c/o Rose Neale, General Counsel, Sun Country Airlines Holdings, Inc., 2005 Cargo Road, Minneapolis, MN 55450. Interested parties may communicate anonymously and/or confidentially if they desire.

Director Attendance at Annual Meeting

The Company encourages all of our directors to attend each annual meeting of stockholders. Patrick O’Keeffe, Gail Peterson, Kerry Philipovitch, and Jennifer Vogel each attended the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders.

Insider Trading Policy; Prohibition on Hedging; Clawback Policy

Our Board of Directors has adopted a securities trading policy, which prohibits our directors, executive officers, and other designated employees from, among other things, purchasing any financial instruments (including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, and exchange funds) or engaging in transactions that are designed to or have the effect of hedging or offsetting any decrease in market value of our equity securities. Our securities trading policy also prohibits directors, officers, and employees from engaging in the following activities with respect to our securities: (i) short sales, (ii) buying or selling puts, calls, options, or other derivatives, and (iii) purchases of securities on margin.

In addition, the Company adopted a clawback policy (the “Clawback Policy”), which is included as an exhibit in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, and which became effective on November 3, 2023. The Clawback Policy applies to our executive officers, and provides that in the event of an accounting restatement, the Company must require an executive officer to repay incentive-based compensation, including cash or equity compensation, that would otherwise not have been received had such incentive-based compensation been determined correctly in accordance with the accounting restatement, for a period of three years preceding the date the Company concludes that it is required to prepare such accounting restatement.

Community Involvement

At Sun Country, we place tremendous value in all our stakeholders, including our customers, partners, and members of our community. As a fast-growing and dynamic airline, we know our success depends on collaboration with stakeholders, and we strive to engage with stakeholders in our community and more broadly.

We are a longtime partner with Make-A-Wish Minnesota and provide flights for children with critical illnesses to help them safely travel to and from their wish destinations. In 2021, we made a three-year commitment to donate travel to accommodate Wish Kids traveling anywhere that our airline flies. Each December, our “Flight to the North Pole” helps bring holiday cheer to Wish Kids by “flying” them to the home of Santa Claus.

We also sponsor the Hennepin Theatre Trust Spotlight Education program. This program supplements and enhances arts curricula across the state of Minnesota through production assessments, workshops, and arts journalism, increasing equitable access to quality theater education. As part of this sponsorship, we donate an all-expense-paid trip to New York City for up to four students so that they can meet with industry professionals, participate in musical theater workshops and attend Broadway shows.

Sun Country is a proud partner of the Department of Defense, and we take pride in providing Charter Service for our nation’s military domestically and abroad. Additionally, Sun Country is proud to help transport

17

military veterans to Washington, D.C. aboard Honor Flights to share in a day of honor at our nation’s memorials. These trips are an important way to commemorate the courage and dedication of our nation’s veterans and provide them a day filled with reflection, support and thanks. Many of our pilots and other team members are armed forces veterans and we are proud to fly our nation’s veterans and support the Department of Defense.

We also support the development of a more diverse “workforce of tomorrow” by investing in initiatives like STARBASE STEM and Girls in Aviation, which both serve to educate and create a pipeline for historically disadvantaged students for careers in aviation and aerospace.

Fuel Consumption Initiatives

Our low-cost business model demands that we consistently look for ways to reduce the amount of jet fuel we consume. These jet fuel reduction initiatives include:

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Overview

This section explains our executive compensation philosophy, objectives, and design; our compensation governance; our compensation-setting process; our executive compensation program elements; and the decisions made in 2023 with respect to the compensation of each of our named executive officers. Our named executive officers for 2023, who appear in the section entitled Summary Compensation Table below, are:

2023 Performance Highlights

Fiscal year 2023 proved to be another year of milestones and growth initiatives for the Company. We believe our financial performance has demonstrated the growth and resilience inherent in our business model. Specifically, the Company achieved the following performance and operational milestones:

As described in this “Compensation Discussion & Analysis,” the Compensation and Human Resources Committee has designed incentive compensation programs that are intended to align executives’ interests with our financial and operational growth strategies and achievements and takes these performance achievements into account when designing and implementing pay opportunities.

2023 Compensation Review

During 2023, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee undertook a holistic review of the Company’s existing compensation arrangements and worked alongside an independent compensation consultant to establish compensation that is intended to reflect the Company’s ongoing transition from a newly-public company to a more independent, steady-state public company. Specifically, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee approved adjustments to Mr. Bricker’s and Mr. Davis’ existing compensation levels to provide market competitive compensation opportunities. The Compensation and Human Resources Committee also approved the framework for a new long-term incentive program (“LTI”) consisting of both time-based and performance-based restricted stock units, which program is being phased in beginning in 2024. This new LTI program is intended to reflect the fact that the prior LTI program was largely designed to incentivize alignment with the Company’s major private equity shareholder, in the form of performance-based options tied to returns of that private equity shareholder. These performance-based options have now vested, and the Compensation and Human Resources Committee recognized that as the Company continues to mature, it would be important to develop and design a new long-term incentive program that would be better aligned with the business goals and

20

objectives of a more steady-state public company. Going forward, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee believes it is important to align our executive compensation programs with shareholders through the use of performance-based LTI awards. Certain of the compensation elements described in this “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” reflect decisions made by the Compensation and Human Resources Committee in connection with such holistic review.

Executive Compensation Objectives, Philosophy, and Design

Objectives. The Company’s goal for its executive compensation program is to utilize a pay-for-performance compensation program that is directly related to achievement of the Company’s financial and strategic objectives. This program is designed to:

(i) provide compensation opportunities that will allow the Company to attract and retain talented executive officers who are essential to the Company’s success;

(ii) provide compensation that rewards corporate performance and motivates the executive officers to achieve corporate strategic objectives;

(iii) reward superior financial and operational performance in a given year;

(iv) place compensation at risk if performance goals are not achieved; and

(v) align the interests of executive officers with the long-term interests of stockholders through stock-based awards.

Philosophy. As we transition from a majority-owned private company to a more independent, steady-state public company, our compensation philosophy reflects an overall goal that pay incentives should be designed to both appropriately motivate key executive talent and promote retention, while also aligning with the longer-term interests of our shareholders more generally.

Design. Our executive compensation program is designed to appropriately balance fixed compensation elements with variable compensation elements, and is intended to create both short-term and long-term compensation opportunities designed to complement the expectations that executive officers must focus on performance of the business over both time horizons.

Compensation-Setting Process

Role of Our Compensation and Human Resources Committee. The Compensation and Human Resources Committee is responsible for overseeing all aspects of our executive compensation program, including executive salaries, payouts under our bonus plan, the size and structure of equity awards, and executive perquisites. The Compensation and Human Resources Committee is solely responsible for determining the compensation of our CEO and reviews and approves the compensation of our other executive officers. For more information regarding the responsibilities of the Compensation and Human Resources Committee, see the section entitled “Corporate Governance.”

Role of Management. In setting compensation for 2023, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer provide their views to the Compensation and Human Resources Committee on how to implement our compensation philosophy through our executive compensation program and attended meetings of the Compensation and Human Resources Committee. Our CEO made recommendations to the Compensation and Human Resources Committee regarding compensation for our executive officers, other than for himself, because of his oversight and daily involvement with our executive team. No executive officer participated in the final deliberations or determinations regarding his or her own compensation package or was present during such determinations.

21

Our management team and the Compensation and Human Resources Committee each play a role in evaluating and mitigating any risk that may exist relating to our compensation plans, practices, and policies for all employees, including our named executive officers, as further described in the section entitled “Corporate Governance—Compensation Risk Assessment” below.

Role of Compensation Consultant. Pursuant to its charter, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee has the authority to engage its own advisors to assist in carrying out its responsibilities. During 2023, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee engaged Meridian Compensation Partners, LLC (“Meridian”) as its independent compensation consultant. Meridian assisted the Compensation and Human Resources Committee in providing advice, reports and recommendations relating to pay levels, performance goals and LTI design. Meridian also attends meetings of the Compensation and Human Resources Committee by invitation. The Compensation and Human Resources Committee evaluates annually Meridian’s independence from management, taking into consideration all relevant factors, including the six independence factors specified in the Nasdaq listing rules and applicable SEC requirements. The Compensation and Human Resources Committee reviewed the independence of Meridian and concluded that Meridian is independent and that its work for the Compensation and Human Resources Committee does not raise any conflicts of interest.

Use of Comparative Market Data. We aim to compensate our executive officers at levels that are commensurate with the most competitive levels of compensation for executives in similar positions at the group of publicly-traded peer companies set forth below, with whom we compete for hiring and retaining executive talent (our “Peer Group”). In making compensation decisions, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee also considers the scope of responsibility and tenure of each executive officer, the unvested balances of equity awards held by each executive officer, as well as the Compensation and Human Resources Committee’s assessment of each executive officer’s performance and impact on the organization. In determining 2023 compensation, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee did not use a formula for taking into account these different factors.

We analyze market data for executive compensation at least annually using the most relevant published survey sources, information available from public filings, and input from Meridian. Management and Meridian provided the Compensation and Human Resources Committee with both cash and equity compensation data for our Peer Group. With input from Meridian, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee considered the following selection criteria to identify the peer group:

Using these factors, the Peer Group used for setting 2023 compensation consisted of the following eight companies:

22

In 2023, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee reviewed our executive compensation against this Peer Group to ensure that our executive officer compensation was competitive and sufficient to recruit and retain our executive officers, and to ensure compensation pay levels were generally aligned with market. The Compensation and Human Resources Committee set target total direct compensation levels for 2023 that were generally within a competitive range of the market median, with consideration to other factors including individual and Company performance, retention, scope of role, and internal equity.

The Compensation and Human Resources Committee expects to periodically review and update our Peer Group and the underlying criteria as our business and market environment continue to evolve.

Elements of Executive Compensation

Our executive officer compensation package for 2023 generally consisted of the following three elements:

We believe that our compensation mix supports our objective of focusing on at-risk compensation having significant financial upside based on our performance relative to Company operational and financial goals. We expect to continue to emphasize equity awards because of the direct link that equity compensation provides between long-term shareholder interests and the interests of our executive officers, thereby motivating our executive officers to focus on increasing our value over the long term.

Base Salary. The Compensation and Human Resources Committee believes base salaries are a necessary element of compensation in order to attract and retain highly qualified executive officers. The Compensation and Human Resources Committee reviews the base salaries of our executive officers at least annually and may adjust them from time to time, if needed, to reflect changes in market conditions or other factors.

During 2023, in connection with the Compensation and Human Resources Committee’s holistic review of the executive officers’ pay levels, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee approved base salary increases for Messrs. Levenhagen and Whitney, and Ms. Neale, to $325,000, and to $400,000 for Mr. Mays. In connection with entering into new employment agreements in May of 2023 with Messrs. Bricker and Davis, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee approved increases to their base salary levels to $650,000 for Mr. Bricker and $500,000 for Mr. Davis. The Compensation and Human Resources Committee determined that these salary adjustments were appropriate in order to provide market competitive compensation opportunities as the Company transitions from a newly-public company to a more independent, steady-state public company.

Cash Bonuses. Our annual cash bonus program for 2023 was designed to deliver variable cash incentives, payable annually, that are designed to motivate our executive officers to focus on Company priorities and to reward them for performance achievements tied to financial and operational goals. In 2023, individual target bonus percentages for each named executive officer were established as a percentage of such executive’s base salary. During 2023, in connection with the Compensation and Human Resources Committee’s holistic review of

23

the executive officers’ pay levels, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee reduced each executive officer’s target annual bonus percentage in order to ensure that short-term cash compensation levels and overall pay mix were being set within the market range of our peers, after taking into account the increases in base salary levels that were approved during 2023, as shown in the table below:

Under the 2023 bonus program, our adjusted EBITDA must be positive in order for any portion based on corporate performance metrics to be earned. The criteria for paying 2023 annual bonuses is illustrated in the chart below:

The Compensation and Human Resources Committee determined that the 2023 bonus metrics described above were appropriate given that each of these metrics drives key aspects of our operational and financial performance:

24

This resulted in an overall payout percentage of 91.8% of the overall target award, equating to the below individual payout amounts, which amounts are reflected in the Summary Compensation Table in the “Non-Equity Incentive Plan” column:

In connection with entering into their new employment agreements in May of 2023, Mr. Bricker and Mr. Davis each received a one-time agreement bonus of $500,000 and $300,000, respectively. These agreement bonuses were paid to Mr. Bricker and Mr. Davis in consideration for entering into their new employment agreements having terms of four years and two years, respectively. The Compensation and Human Resources Committee determined that providing these one-time agreement bonuses was appropriate given the importance of retaining Mr. Bricker and Mr. Davis.

Equity Compensation. We use equity compensation to align our executive officers’ financial interests with those of our shareholders, to attract industry leaders of the highest caliber, and to retain them for the long term. For 2023, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee approved an LTI program consisting of time-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”). Because the ultimate value realized from the vesting and settlement of RSUs is directly tied to our stock price, time-based RSUs are intended to provide both retention over a longer-term time period while also delivering direct alignment with stockholder interests. For the NEOs other than Mr. Bricker and Mr. Davis, these RSU awards were granted in January 2023. In spring of 2023 and as part of their new employment agreements, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee worked with Meridian to review and determine the appropriate value of the RSUs to be granted to Mr. Bricker and Mr. Davis in connection with a broader review of their total target annual compensation levels.

During 2023, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee granted RSUs to the NEOs having the grant date values shown in the table below:

RSUs vest over three years on a quarterly vesting schedule, subject to continued employment on the applicable vesting dates.

Performance-Based Stock Options

Prior to our initial public offering, certain of our NEOs were granted performance-based stock options which were subject to vesting based on achievement of certain multiples of invested capital of our former major

private equity holder, as measured on certain dates/events. At the beginning of 2023, a portion of these performance-based stock options had not yet been earned, and therefore continued to serve as a performance-based equity incentive tool, ensuring ongoing alignment of the NEOs’ compensation opportunities with Company performance/stock price. During 2023, all of these performance-based options became fully vested in accordance with the terms of the applicable award agreements. Given these awards have now been fully earned, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee will continue to review our LTI program to ensure that the interests of the executive officers are aligned with those of our shareholders through the use of new LTI vehicles that are designed to focus on increased shareholder value, retention and pay-for-performance metrics that are consistent with the Company’s strategy to align with the market practices of our peers and other mature, steady-state public companies, as described in more detail below.

2024 Compensation Decisions – Continued Focus on Performance-Based Equity Awards

In January 2024, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee approved a 2024 LTI program consisting of both RSUs and performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”). The introduction of PSUs to the LTI program reflects the Compensation and Human Resources Committee’s intention to continuously update our existing compensation programs to reflect the growth of our business and continued transition from a majority-held Company to a more mature organization. For time-based RSUs granted to our executive officers in 2024, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee approved a three-year annual vesting schedule to align with the practices of more steady-state publicly traded companies. For the 2024 PSUs, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee approved the following performance metrics: Adjusted EPS (weighted at 50%) and Relative Pretax Margin (weighted at 50%). Mr. Bricker and Mr. Davis received 60% of their 2024 LTI grant in the form of PSUs and 40% in the form of time-based RSUs, while the other NEOs received 25% in the form of PSUs and 75% of their 2024 LTI grants in the form of time-based RSUs. The Compensation and Human Resources Committee also approved a “phase in” schedule for future PSU awards for executive officers (other than Mr. Bricker and Mr. Davis, who will continue to receive at least a 60%/40% split) which would provide that such executive officers’ LTI award for 2025 would be 37% in the form of PSUs and 63% in the form of time-based RSUs, with a split of 50%/50% being phased in by 2026.

PERQUISITES AND OTHER BENEFITS

Our named executive officers participate in the same ongoing retirement plans as our other employees generally, including a defined contribution plan. The Company also provides a cell phone allowance in certain circumstances, and contributes to life insurance and health savings accounts for the named executive officers. Our named executive officers are also entitled to receive flight benefits under our Universal Air Travel Plan (“ATP”). Under the ATP, certain executives, including our NEOs, receive an annual dollar value that they may use for personal travel on our flights for themselves and certain qualifying friends and family. Each one-way flight taken is valued at $75. As the ATP benefit utilized by the executive is taxable income to the NEOs, the Company pays such taxes on a grossed-up basis.

The Bricker Severance Benefits are conditioned upon Mr. Bricker’s execution of a general release of claims and compliance with restrictive covenant obligations. Mr. Bricker would also become entitled to receive the health care benefits set forth in his Health Care Side Letter, as described in more detail below. The Bricker Agreement contemplates that Mr. Bricker may continue to provide services to the Company as a member of the Board and/or as a consultant to the Company for a period of time following a termination of his employment.

For purposes of Mr. Bricker’s employment agreement, Good Reason shall mean any of the following actions that are taken by the Company without his express written consent: (i) a material reduction of Executive’s duties and responsibilities in his capacity as Chief Executive Officer of the Company (which, without limitation, shall be deemed to occur if the common stock of the Company is no longer listed on a national securities exchange, unless the Executive becomes the Chief Executive Officer of the ultimate parent of the Company and such parent’s shares are listed on a national securities exchange) or change in title or a change that results in the Executive no longer reporting directly and exclusively to the full Board (except where, to the extent required by applicable law or listing standards, the Executive is required to report to a committee thereof, it being understand that as of the Effective Date, no such requirement currently exists), (ii) a reduction in the Executive’s Base Salary or target annual bonus opportunity, (iii) a failure to pay an Annual Bonus (to the extent earned) in accordance with Section 3(b) or to make an LTIP award during the Term in accordance with Section 3(d), (iv) the relocation of the Company’s principal executive offices to a location outside a 50-mile radius of the current location, or (v) any material breach by the Company of any material term or provision of this Agreement or any other written agreement between the Executive and the Company and its Affiliates; provided, however, that the Executive cannot terminate his employment for Good Reason unless the Executive has first provided written notice to the Company of the existence of the circumstances providing grounds for termination for Good Reason within thirty (30) days of becoming aware of the existence of such grounds and the Company has been afforded at least thirty (30) days from the date on which such notice is provided to cure such circumstances and has failed to do so. If the Executive does not terminate his employment for Good Reason within thirty (30) days after the expiration of such cure period, then the Executive will be deemed to have waived the Executive’s right to terminate for Good Reason with respect to such grounds.

For purposes of Mr. Davis’ employment agreement, Good Reason shall mean any of the followings actions that are taken by the Company without his express written consent: (i) a material reduction of Executive’s duties and responsibilities in his capacity as President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company (which, without limitation, shall be deemed to occur if the common stock of the Company is no longer listed on a national securities exchange, unless the Executive becomes the President and Chief Financial Officer of the ultimate parent of the Company and such parent’s shares are listed on a national securities exchange) or change in title or a change that results in the Executive no longer reporting to only the chief executive officer of the Company or to the full Board (or a committee thereof), (ii) a reduction in the Executive’s Base Salary or target annual bonus opportunity, (iii) a failure to pay an Annual Bonus (to the extent earned) in accordance with Section 3(b) or to make an LTIP award during the Term in accordance with Section 3(d), (iv) the relocation of the Company’s principal executive offices to a location outside a 50-mile radius of the current location, or (v) any material breach by the Company of any material term or provision of this Agreement or any other written agreement between the Executive and the Company and its Affiliates; provided, however, that the Executive cannot terminate his employment for Good Reason unless the Executive has first provided written notice to the Company of the existence of the circumstances providing grounds for termination for Good Reason within thirty (30) days of becoming aware of the existence of such grounds and the Company has been afforded at least thirty

Director Compensation

2023 Director Compensation

During 2023, none of the members of our Board of Directors received any compensation from the Company for their services on the Board, except as set forth below. During fiscal year 2023, with respect to the period from January 1, 2023 through July 31, 2023, our non-employee director compensation program consisted of the following: annual cash retainer fee equal to $50,000 ($75,000 for the Board Chair), and additional fees as follows: $20,000 for the Audit Committee Chair, $15,000 for the Compensation and Human Resources Committee Chair, $10,000 for the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Chair and $10,000 for the Safety Committee Chair. The Board of Directors periodically reviews director compensation to ensure that it is appropriate and in line with our Peer Group. In August of 2023, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee, in consultation with the committee’s independent compensation consultant, recommended, and the Board of Directors approved, adjustments to the non-employee compensation program, which became effective for the period beginning August 1, 2023, as follows: annual cash retainer fee equal to $75,000 ($100,000 for the Board Chair) and additional fees as follows: $25,000 for the Audit Committee Chair, $20,000 for the Compensation and Human Resources Committee Chair, $15,000 for the Nominating and Governance Committee Chair and $15,000 for the Safety Committee Chair. All cash retainers are paid quarterly. Non-employee directors also receive an annual equity retainer consisting of RSUs having a grant date value of $120,000 ($170,000 for the Board Chair). The annual equity retainers are generally granted in connection with the Company’s annual stockholders’ meeting each year; in addition, newly-appointed directors receive a pro-rata annual equity grant at the time they join the Board.

As of December 31, 2023, each of the non-employee directors held unvested, outstanding stock awards as follows: Marion Blakey (6,186); Thomas C. Kennedy (6,186); Patrick O’Keeffe (6,186); Kerry Philipovitch (6,186); Gail Peterson (12,502); and Jennifer Vogel (8,805).

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

Other than compensation arrangements for our executive officers and directors (see “Executive Compensation” for a discussion of compensation arrangements for our named executive officers and directors) and the transactions discussed below, there were no transactions since the beginning of our 2023 fiscal year, or any currently proposed transaction, to which we were a party or will be a party, in which:

Policies and Procedures for Related Party Transactions

We have adopted a written Related Person Transaction Policy (the “policy”), which sets forth our policy with respect to the review, approval, ratification, and disclosure of all related person transactions by our Audit Committee. In accordance with the policy, our Audit Committee has overall responsibility for implementation of and compliance with the policy.

For purposes of the policy, a “related person transaction” is a transaction, arrangement, or relationship (or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships) in which we were, are or will be a participant and the amount involved exceeded, exceeds or will exceed $120,000 and in which any related person (as defined in the policy) had, has or will have a direct or indirect material interest. A “related person transaction” does not include any employment relationship or transaction involving an executive officer and any related compensation resulting solely from that employment relationship that has been reviewed and approved by our General Counsel and Audit Committee.

The policy requires that notice of a proposed related person transaction be provided to the General Counsel prior to entry into such transaction. If the General Counsel determines that such transaction is a related person transaction, the proposed transaction will be submitted to our Audit Committee for consideration. Under the policy, our Audit Committee may approve only those related person transactions that are in, or not inconsistent with, our best interests and the best interests of our stockholders. If we become aware of a related person transaction that has not been previously reviewed, approved or ratified under the policy and that is ongoing or is completed, the transaction will be submitted to the Audit Committee so that it may determine whether to ratify, rescind or terminate the related person transaction.

The policy also provides that the Audit Committee review certain previously approved or ratified related person transactions that are ongoing to determine whether the related person transaction remains in our best interests and the best interests of our stockholders. Additionally, we will make periodic inquiries of directors and executive officers with respect to any potential related person transaction of which they may be a party or of which they may be aware.

Anuvu

We use Anuvu Corporation (“Anuvu”), a provider of media, content, connectivity, and data analytics, as an in-flight Wi-Fi provider for a select few of our aircraft. Anuvu is partially owned by investment funds managed by affiliates of Apollo. We expensed approximately $203,000 for services with Anuvu in 2023, which services were provided on an arms’ length basis.

Stockholders Agreement

On May 16, 2018, SCA Acquisition Holdings, LLC entered into the Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement (as amended or modified from time to time, the “Stockholders Agreement”) with AP VIII (SCA Stock AIV), LLC (“Stock AIV”) and the co-investors and other stockholders party thereto, which imposes certain

41

transfer restrictions and provides for the Company’s right to repurchase any common stock proposed to be sold by the holders party thereto and the Company’s right to repurchase any common stock held by such holders in the event they are terminated from their employment or consultancy with the Company. The Stockholders Agreement also provides Stock AIV with certain drag-along rights and the other holders party thereto with certain tag-along rights in the event of a disposition of the shares of common stock held by them. On January 31, 2020, in connection with the Reorganization Transactions, the Stockholders Agreement was amended and restated to reflect the Apollo Stockholder’s acquisition of SCA common stock from Stock AIV and our conversion to a corporation.

We further amended and restated the Stockholders Agreement in connection with our initial public offering to eliminate certain transfer restrictions and the repurchase, drag-along and tag-along rights and to provide that the Apollo Stockholder has the right, at any time until Apollo and its affiliates, including the Apollo Stockholder, no longer beneficially own at least 5% of the voting power of our outstanding common stock, to nominate a number of directors comprising a percentage of the board in accordance with its beneficial ownership of our outstanding common stock (rounded up to the nearest whole number).

Additionally, the Stockholders Agreement also specifies that Amazon will have the right to nominate a member or an observer to our Board of Directors for so long as Amazon holds the 2019 Warrants or any shares of common stock issued upon exercise of the 2019 Warrants and the ATSA remains in effect.

Further, the Stockholders Agreement sets forth certain information rights granted to the Apollo Stockholder. The Stockholders Agreement also provided Apollo and its affiliates with certain consent rights, but these provisions are no longer applicable as a result of Apollo’s current holdings in our Company.

Registration Rights Agreement

On March 19, 2021, we entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Apollo Stockholder, Amazon, PAR Investment Partners, L.P. and certain of our existing holders of our common stock prior to our initial public offering (collectively, the “Holders”). Subject to several exceptions, including our right to defer a demand registration, shelf registration or underwritten offering under certain circumstances, the Apollo Stockholder and, under certain circumstances, Amazon, may require that we register for public resale under the Securities Act all shares of common stock that it requests to be registered at any time, subject to the restrictions in the lock-up agreements, so long as the securities being registered in each registration statement or sold in any underwritten offering are reasonably expected to produce aggregate proceeds of at least $50.0 million.

In addition, the Apollo Stockholder and, under certain circumstances, Amazon, have the right to require us to register the sale of the common stock held by them on Form S-3, subject to offering size and other restrictions. The Apollo Stockholder also has the right to request marketed and non-marketed underwritten offerings using a shelf registration statement, and all Holders have the right to participate in these underwritten offerings.

If we propose to file certain types of registration statements under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of equity securities (including for sale by us or at the request of the Apollo Stockholder), we will be required to use our reasonable best efforts to offer the parties to the Registration Rights Agreement the opportunity to register the sale of all or part of their shares on the terms and conditions set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement (customarily known as “piggyback rights”).

All expenses of registration under the Registration Rights Agreement, including the legal fees of counsel chosen by stockholders participating in a registration, will be paid by us.

The registration rights granted in the Registration Rights Agreement are subject to customary restrictions including blackout periods and, if a registration is underwritten, any limitations on the number of shares to be

42

included in the underwritten offering as reasonably advised by the managing underwriter or underwriters. The Registration Rights Agreement also contains customary indemnification and contribution provisions. The Registration Rights Agreement is governed by Delaware law.

On March 19, 2021, we entered into an income tax receivable agreement pursuant to which our pre-IPO stockholders, which includes certain members of the Company’s management and certain members of the Company’s Board of Directors, have the right to receive payment by us of 85% of the amount of cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state, local, and foreign income tax that we and our subsidiaries actually realize (or are deemed to realize in the case of a change of control and certain subsidiary dispositions, as discussed below) for periods starting at least 12 months after the closing date of our initial public offering as a result of the utilization of our and our subsidiaries’ tax attributes existing at the time of our initial public offering. These tax attributes, which we refer to as the “Pre-IPO Tax Attributes,” include net operating loss carryforwards, deductions, tax basis and certain other tax attributes, in each case that relate to periods (or portions thereof) ending on or prior to the closing date of our initial public offering.

We expect to be able to utilize the Pre-IPO Tax Attributes. We expect that the Pre-IPO Tax Attributes will reduce the amount of tax that we and our subsidiaries would otherwise be required to pay in the future.

For purposes of the income tax receivable agreement, cash savings in income tax are computed by reference to the reduction in the liability for income taxes resulting from the utilization of the tax benefits subject to the income tax receivable agreement. The term of the income tax receivable agreement will continue until all relevant tax benefits have been utilized or expired.

Our counterparties under the income tax receivable agreement will not reimburse us for any payments previously made if such tax benefits are subsequently disallowed (although future payments would be adjusted to the extent possible to reflect the result of such disallowance). As a result, in such circumstances we could make payments under the income tax receivable agreement that are greater than our and our subsidiaries’ actual cash tax savings.

Any future changes in the realizability of our Pre-IPO Tax Attributes in each case, attributable to periods prior to our initial public offering, will impact the amount of the liability that will be paid to our pre-IPO stockholders, which includes certain members of the Company’s management and certain members of the Company’s Board of Directors. Assuming no material changes in the relevant tax law, that we and our subsidiaries earn sufficient taxable income to realize the full tax benefits subject to the income tax receivable agreement and our current taxable income estimates, we would expect that future payments under the income tax receivable agreement will aggregate to approximately $101 million as of December 31, 2023. We plan to use cash flow from operations and availability under the Revolving Credit Facility to fund our obligations under the income tax receivable agreement.

If we undergo certain mergers, stock and asset sales, other forms of business combinations or other transactions constituting a “change of control” as defined in the income tax receivable agreement, the income tax receivable agreement will terminate and we will be required to make a payment equal to the present value of future payments under the income tax receivable agreement, which payment would be based on certain assumptions, including the assumption that we and our subsidiaries have sufficient taxable income to fully utilize the Pre-IPO Tax Attributes. Additionally, if we sell or otherwise dispose of any of our subsidiaries in a transaction that is not a change of control, we will be required to make a payment equal to the present value of future payments under the income tax receivable agreement attributable to the tax benefits of such subsidiary that is sold or disposed of, applying the assumptions described above.

43

The income tax receivable agreement provides that in the event that we breach any of our material obligations under it, whether as a result of our failure to make any payment when due (subject to a specified cure period), failure to honor any other material obligation under it or by operation of law as a result of the rejection of it in a case commenced under the United States Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, then all our payment and other obligations under the income tax receivable agreement will be accelerated and will become due and payable applying the same assumptions described above. Such payments could be substantial and could exceed our actual cash tax savings under the income tax receivable agreement. Payment obligations under the income tax receivable agreement are our obligations and not obligations of any of our subsidiaries. Because we are a holding company with no operations of our own, our ability to make payments under the income tax receivable agreement is dependent on the ability of our subsidiaries to make distributions to us. Our existing and future debt agreement, as well as restrictions in government programs, may restrict the ability of our subsidiaries to make distributions to us, which could affect our ability to make payments under the income tax receivable agreement. The actual utilization of the Pre-IPO Tax Attributes as well as the timing of any payments under the income tax receivable agreement will vary depending upon a number of factors, including the amount, character and timing of our and our subsidiaries’ taxable income in the future.

To the extent that we are unable to make payments under the income tax receivable agreement, such payments will be deferred and will accrue interest at a rate of SOFR plus 3.00%-5.00%.

Based on our current income projections, we anticipate that payments under the income tax receivable agreement will be made when, and in amounts equal to 85% of, the cash tax saving we actually realize as a result of utilization of Pre-IPO Tax Attributes. However, due to the manner in which payments under the income tax receivable agreement are calculated, such payments may be greater than, and made in advance of, our actual cash tax savings attributable to the Pre-IPO Tax Attributes.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed with the Company’s management and with KPMG the audited financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. The Audit Committee has discussed with KPMG the matters required to be discussed under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) and the SEC.

The Audit Committee has also received the written disclosures and the letter from KPMG required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent accountant’s communication with the Audit Committee concerning independence and the Audit Committee has discussed the independence of KPMG with that firm.

Based on the Audit Committee’s review and discussions of the matters noted above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the Company’s audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, for filing with the SEC.

Members of the Audit Committee:

Thomas C. Kennedy, Chairperson

Kerry Philipovitch

Jennifer Vogel

AUDIT-RELATED FEES, TAX FEES AND ALL OTHER FEES

Fees paid or accrued for professional services provided by our independent auditors in each of the categories listed are as follows for the periods presented. All such fees are in accordance with our approval policies described below.

Audit Fees-primarily represent amounts for services related to the audit of our consolidated financial statements, reviews of our interim condensed consolidated financial statements, and the issuance of consents and for other periodic reports or documents filed with the SEC.

Audit-Related Fees-represent amounts for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our financial statements, including fees related to the Company’s filings with the SEC and related comfort letters for its initial public offering and secondary offerings, and annual PFC audit.

Tax Fees-represent amounts for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning services.

All Other Fees-consist of all other fees for services other than those in the above categories and primarily consist of non-audit due diligence procedures in connection with our mergers and acquisitions.

The Board of Directors adopted a pre-approval policy that provides guidelines for the audit, audit-related, tax, and other permissible non-audit services that may be provided by the independent auditors. The policy identifies the guiding principles that must be considered by the Audit Committee in approving services to ensure that the auditors’ independence is not impaired. Under the policy, the Audit Committee annually, and from time to time, pre-approves the audit engagement fees and terms of all audit and permitted non-audit services to be provided by the independent auditor.

PROPOSAL 2—NON-BINDING (ADVISORY) VOTE ON THE FREQUECY OF FUTURE ADVISORY VOTES TO APPROVE COMPENSATION OF NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

As required by Section 14A of the Exchange Act and pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act, we are providing our stockholders the opportunity to indicate how frequently we should seek future advisory say-on-pay votes on the compensation of our named executive officers. Under this proposal, stockholders may indicate whether they would prefer that the advisory say-on-pay vote on the compensation of our named executive officers occur every one, two or three years. Stockholders also may abstain from voting on this proposal. A vote on this proposal is required to be held at least every six years.

The Compensation and Human Resources Committee and the Board believe that holding an advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive compensation “every year” is the best approach, because it allows stockholders to provide direct input on our compensation policies and programs consistent with our annual reporting of named executive compensation. This advisory vote, although not binding on the Board or the Compensation and Human Resources Committee, will be taken into account by the Board and the Compensation and Human Resources Committee when determining the frequency of holding future advisory say-on-pay votes.

The Board of Directors recommends that the stockholders vote every “1 YEAR” on the frequency of advisory votes to approve named executive officer compensation.

The proposal will be approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of our common stock present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote. Abstentions will have the effect of voting “against” the proposal. If none of the three frequencies (1 year, 2 years or 3 years) receives the vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote, then the Board of Directors will consider the frequency that received the highest number of such affirmative votes to be the recommendation of stockholders with respect to this proposal.

PROPOSAL 3—NON-BINDING (ADVISORY) VOTE TO APPROVE THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

As required by Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), we are required to provide our stockholders with an advisory vote to approve named executive officer compensation at least every three years, beginning with the 2024 Annual Meeting. This advisory vote, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” vote, is a non-binding vote on the compensation paid to our named executive officers as disclosed under the heading “Executive Compensation” beginning on page 20 of this proxy statement.

Our executive compensation program is designed to attract, motivate and retain highly qualified executives who are able to help achieve the Company’s objectives and create stockholder value over the long term. Our executive compensation programs and objectives are described in detail in “Executive Compensation-Compensation Discussion and Analysis” and the level of compensation paid to our named executive officers during the last three years is set out in the Summary Compensation Table and related information. Our Compensation and Human Resources Committee believes that our executive compensation program is effective in achieving our objectives.

This advisory vote to approve named executive officer compensation is not binding on our Board or the Compensation and Human Resources Committee. However, the Board and the Compensation and Human Resources Committee value our stockholders’ input and will take into account the result of the vote when determining future executive compensation arrangements.

The Board of Directors recommends that the stockholders vote “FOR” the advisory approval of named executive officer compensation.

47

PROPOSAL 4—RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee has appointed KPMG to be the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. KPMG has served as the Company’s or its predecessor’s independent registered public accounting firm since fiscal year 2018 and is considered by the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors to be well qualified. Representatives of KPMG are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting. Such representatives will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

The proposal will be approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of our common stock present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote. Abstentions will have the effect of voting “against” the proposal. Brokers have discretion to vote any uninstructed shares over the ratification of appointment of accountants.

The Board of Directors recommends that the stockholders vote “FOR” such ratification.

DELINQUENT SECTION 16(A) REPORTS

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s executive officers, directors, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities (the “10% Stockholders”) to file reports of ownership and changes of ownership with the SEC. The Company assists its directors, officers and certain 10% Stockholders by assisting in their completion of Section 16 reports and filing these reports on their behalf. Based solely on a review of Section 16(a) reports filed electronically with the SEC during or with respect to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, or written representations that no other reports were required, the Company believes that our Section 16(a) reporting persons complied with all applicable filing requirements during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, except for the following: One late report for Ms. Vogel, reporting one transaction late; one late report for Ms. Peterson, reporting one transaction late; and two late reports for Mr. Trousdale, one reporting five transactions late and one reporting one transaction late.

STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS

A holder of the Company’s common stock who wishes to present a proposal for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2025 Annual Meeting”) pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Rule 14a-8” and “Exchange Act”, respectively) must deliver the proposal to our principal executive offices (Sun Country Airlines Holdings, Inc., 2005 Cargo Road, Minneapolis, MN 55450) to the attention of our Secretary no later than the close of business on December 30, 2024 unless the date of the 2025 Annual Meeting is more than 30 days before or after June 12, 2025, in which case the stockholder proposal must be received a reasonable time before we begin to print and mail our proxy materials.

For any stockholder proposal or director nomination that is not submitted for inclusion in our proxy statement pursuant to the process set forth above but is instead sought to be presented directly at the 2025 Annual Meeting, stockholders are advised to review our bylaws as they contain requirements with respect to advance notice of stockholder proposals and director nominations. Our bylaws provide that stockholders who are seeking to bring business before an annual meeting of stockholders and stockholders who are seeking to nominate candidates for election as directors at an annual meeting of stockholders, other than any nomination for an Amazon Director or an Apollo Director, must provide timely notice thereof in writing. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice generally must be delivered to and received at our principal executive offices not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting of stockholders; provided, that in the event that the date of such meeting is advanced by more than 30 days prior to, or delayed by more than 60 days after, the anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting of our stockholders, a stockholder’s notice to be timely must be so delivered not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such meeting and not later than the close of business on the 90th day prior to such meeting or, if the first public announcement of the date of such meeting is less than 100 days prior to the date of such annual meeting, the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made.

We advise you to review our bylaws for additional stipulations relating to the process for identifying and nominating directors, including advance notice of director nominations and stockholder proposals. Copies of the pertinent bylaw provisions are available on request to the Secretary at the address set forth above.

In addition to satisfying the advance notice procedures in our bylaws and other requirements under the Exchange Act, stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than our nominees must provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act no later than April 13, 2025.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This proxy statement contains certain information that may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. While we have specifically identified certain information as being forward-looking in the context of its presentation, we caution you that all statements contained in this proxy statement that are not clearly historical in nature are forward-looking. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, these forward-looking statements are generally identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the terms “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “likely,” “may,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would” and, in each case, their negative or other various or comparable terminology, we intend to clearly express that the information deals with possible future events and is forward-looking in nature. However, the absence of these words or similar expressions does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.

Forward-looking information involves risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in, or reasonably inferred from, such statements. Therefore, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Much of the information in this proxy statement that looks towards future performance of the Company is based on various factors and important assumptions about future events that may or may not actually occur. As a result, our operations and financial results in the future could differ materially and substantially from those we have included in this proxy statement. We assume no obligation (and specifically disclaim any such obligation) to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
