Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

As previously announced, at the Company’s 2025 annual meeting of stockholders, the Company’s stockholders authorized an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on November 15, 2023 (the “A&R Certificate of Incorporation”), to effect, at the discretion of the Board at any time prior to the Company's 2026 annual meeting of stockholders, (i) a reverse stock split of Wheels Up’s outstanding shares of Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), at a reverse stock split ratio of not less than 1-for-5 and not greater than 1-for-20, with an exact ratio within that range as may be determined by the Board at a later date (the “Reverse Stock Split”), and (ii) contemporaneously with the Reverse Stock Split, a reduction in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock by a ratio corresponding to the reverse stock split ratio (the “Authorized Share Reduction”). On April 13, 2026, the Board approved the Reverse Stock Split at a ratio of 1-for-20 shares of Common Stock (the “Ratio”), together with a proportionate reduction in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 1.5 billion shares of Common Stock to 75 million shares.

On April 24, 2026, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”) with the Delaware Secretary of State, which amended Section 4.1 of the A&R Certificate of Incorporation, effective as of the Effective Time, to (i) give effect to the Reverse Stock Split, (ii) reduce the total number of shares of all classes of capital stock and Common Stock of the Company authorized for issuance to 100 million and 75 million, respectively, taking into account the Reverse Stock Split, Authorized Share Reduction and Ratio, and (iii) describe the treatment of any fractional shares of Common Stock upon the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split.

The foregoing descriptions of the A&R Certificate of Incorporation and Certificate of Amendment do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the A&R Certificate of Incorporation, which was originally filed as Exhibit 3.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 16, 2023 and is incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 3.1, and the Certificate of Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.2 to this Current Report and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

In connection with the Reverse Stock Split, and pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agreement, dated as of September 25, 2020 (the “Warrant Agreement”), by and between Aspirational Consumer Lifestyle Corp., a blank check company and the predecessor in-interest to Wheels Up (“ASPL”), and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, certain terms of the Company’s issued and outstanding redeemable public warrants and

private warrants (collectively, the “Warrants”) to purchase shares of Common Stock were further adjusted to reflect: (i) a reduction in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each Warrant, which as of the Effective Time resulted in each Warrant being exercisable for 1/200th of one (1) share of Common Stock; (ii) an increase in the exercise price per whole share of Common Stock to $2,300.00; and (iii) the stated redemption prices per Warrant being proportionately reduced by the inverse of the Ratio. The Company does not intend to amend the terms of the Warrant Agreement to reflect the corresponding adjustments as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. The Warrants are scheduled to expire on July 13, 2026, subject to earlier exercise or redemption.

The foregoing description of the Warrant Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Warrant Agreement, which was originally filed as Exhibit 4.1 to ASPL’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on September 25, 2020 and is incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 4.1.
