UNITED CONTINENTAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND UNITED AIRLINES, INC.

COMBINED NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

United Continental Holdings, Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “UAL” or the “Company”) is a holding company and its principal, wholly-owned subsidiary is United Airlines, Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “United”). This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is a combined report of UAL and United including their respective consolidated financial statements. As UAL consolidates United for financial statement purposes, disclosures that relate to activities of United also apply to UAL, unless otherwise noted. United’s operating revenues and operating expenses comprise nearly 100% of UAL’s revenues and operating expenses. In addition, United comprises approximately the entire balance of UAL’s assets, liabilities and operating cash flows. When appropriate, UAL and United are named specifically for their individual contractual obligations and related disclosures and any significant differences between the operations and results of UAL and United are separately disclosed and explained. We sometimes use the words “we,” “our,” “us,” and the “Company” in this report for disclosures that relate to all of UAL and United.

The UAL and United unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements shown here have been prepared as required by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Some information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements that comply with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted as permitted by the SEC. The financial statements include all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments and other adjustments, which are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations. The UAL and United financial statements should be read together with the information included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the “2012 Annual Report”) and Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 25, 2013. The Company’s quarterly financial data is subject to seasonal fluctuations and historically its second and third quarter financial results, which reflect higher travel demand, are better than its first and fourth quarter financial results.

NOTE 1—FREQUENT FLYER ACCOUNTING

Frequent Flyer Awards. The Company revised the estimated selling price of miles as a prospective change in estimate, effective January 1, 2012, based on the price at which the Company sells miles to Star Alliance partners in its reciprocal frequent flyer agreements as the best estimate of the selling price for these miles. Any changes to the composition of Star Alliance airline partners could result in a change to the amount and method we use to determine the estimated selling price. On February 14, 2013, US Airways Group, Inc. announced an agreement to merge with AMR Corporation and its intent to exit Star Alliance as a result of such merger. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of any changes to the estimated selling price of miles as a result of this merger.

NOTE 2—NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-02 (“ASU 2013-02”), Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. Some of the key amendments require the Company to present, either on the face of the statement of operations or in the notes, the effects on the line items of net income of significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income, but only if the amount reclassified is required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, the Company is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts. ASU 2013-02 became effective for the Company’s annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2013, and the required disclosures are included in Note 11 of this report.

NOTE 3—EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

The table below represents the computation of UAL’s basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share amounts and the number of securities that have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share amounts because they were antidilutive (in millions, except per share amounts):

During the second quarter of 2013, UAL issued approximately 22 million shares of UAL common stock pursuant to agreements that UAL entered into with certain of its securityholders in exchange for approximately $189 million in aggregate principal amount of UAL’s outstanding 6% convertible senior notes due 2029 held by such securityholders. The newly issued shares of UAL common stock are included in the determination of basic weighted average shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. The Company retired the 6% convertible senior notes acquired in the exchange.

NOTE 4—INCOME TAXES

Our effective tax rates are lower than the federal statutory rate of 35% primarily because of the impact of changes to existing valuation allowances. We continue to provide a valuation allowance for our deferred tax assets in excess of deferred tax liabilities because we have concluded that it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets will ultimately not be realized.

United files a consolidated federal income tax return with UAL. Under an intercompany tax allocation policy, United computes, records and pays UAL for its own tax liability as if United were a separate company filing a separate return. In determining its own tax liabilities, United takes into account all tax credits or benefits generated and utilized as a separate company and it is compensated for the aforementioned tax benefits only if it would be able to use those benefits on a separate company basis.

NOTE 5—EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans. The Company’s net periodic benefit cost includes the following components (in millions):

Total	$	113		$	83		$	88		$	85

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company contributed $38 million and $79 million, respectively, to its tax-qualified defined benefit pension plans.

Curtailments, Settlements and Plan Remeasurements. During June 2013, the Company announced it would freeze benefits for management and administrative employees under one of its defined benefit pension plans, effective December 31, 2013. As a result, the Company recognized a $2 million curtailment loss in earnings in the second quarter. The Company also recognized a settlement gain of $1 million in earnings resulting from certain lump-sum payments under a separate defined benefit pension plan. Application of curtailment and settlement accounting required the Company to remeasure the assets and liabilities of the two plans in the second quarter. The Company remeasured the pension plans’ liabilities using an average weighted discount rate of 4.74% compared to the year-end 2012 discount rate of 4.24%. As a result of the remeasurements, curtailment and settlement, the projected benefit obligation of the plans decreased by $434 million and Other comprehensive loss decreased by an actuarial gain of $442 million, of which approximately $84 million resulted from the curtailment. These items will also result in a decrease of approximately $30 million in the expected net periodic benefit cost for the remainder of 2013. The Company recognizes the earnings impacts of its pension plans in Salaries and related costs in the statements of consolidated operations.

Share-Based Compensation. In February 2013, UAL granted share-based compensation awards pursuant to the United Continental Holdings, Inc. 2008 Incentive Compensation Plan. These share-based compensation awards include approximately 0.5 million shares of restricted stock and 0.5 million restricted stock units (“RSUs”) that vest pro-rata over three years on the anniversary of the grant date. The time-vested RSUs are cash-settled based on the 20-day average closing price of UAL common stock immediately prior to the vesting date. In addition, the Company granted 1.3 million performance-based RSUs that will vest based on the Company’s return on invested capital for the three years ending December 31, 2015. If this performance condition is achieved, cash payments will be made after the end of the performance period based on the 20-day average closing price of UAL common stock immediately prior to the vesting date. The Company accounts for the RSUs as liability awards. The table below presents information related to share-based compensation (in millions):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2013		2012		2013		2012

	June 30, 2013	December 31, 2012
Unrecognized share-based compensation	$45	$33

(a) Includes $3 million and $11 million of expense recognized in merger integration-related costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. Includes $3 million and $7 million of expense recognized in merger integration-related costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.

Profit Sharing Plans. In 2013 and 2012, a majority of all employees participate in profit sharing plans, which pay 15% of total pre-tax earnings, excluding special items and share-based compensation expense, to eligible employees when pre-tax profit, excluding special items, profit sharing expense and share-based compensation program expense, exceeds $10 million. Eligible U.S. co-workers in each participating work group receive a profit sharing payout using a formula based on the ratio of each qualified co-worker’s annual eligible earnings to the eligible earnings of all qualified co-workers in all domestic workgroups. The international profit sharing plan pays eligible non-U.S. co-workers the same percentage of eligible pay that is calculated under the U.S. profit sharing plan. Profit sharing expense is recorded as a component of salaries and related costs in the consolidated statements of operations. Our profit sharing plan will change in 2014. Beginning with 2014, pilots’ share of profit sharing payments will be limited to an amount that is their pro-rata share of 10% of the Company’s profit up to a pre-tax margin of 6.9% and 20% of the Company’s profit in excess of a pre-tax margin of 6.9%. The profit sharing plan for the other workgroups is unchanged.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company’s auction rate securities, which had a par value of $125 million, were variable-rate debt instruments with interest rates that reset every 7, 28 or 35 days, depending on the terms of the particular instrument. These securities are backed by pools of student loans guaranteed by state-designated guaranty agencies and reinsured by the U.S. government. All of the auction rate securities that the Company holds are senior obligations under the applicable indentures authorizing the issuance of the securities.

As of June 30, 2013, United’s EETC securities, which were repurchased in open market transactions in 2007, have unrealized gains of $3 million. All changes in the fair value of these investments have been classified within accumulated other comprehensive income.

United’s debt-related derivatives presented in the tables above relate to (a) supplemental indenture agreements that provide that United’s convertible debt is convertible into shares of UAL common stock upon the terms and conditions specified in the indentures, and (b) the embedded conversion options in United’s convertible debt that are required to be separated and accounted for as though they are free-standing derivatives as a result of the United debt becoming convertible into the common stock of a different reporting entity. The derivatives described above relate to the 6% convertible junior subordinated debentures due 2030 and the 4.5% convertible notes due 2015. These derivatives are reported in United’s separate financial statements and eliminated in consolidation for UAL.

(a) Broker quotes obtained by a third-party valuation service.

(b) Represents the credit risk premium of the EETC structure above the risk-free rate that the Company has determined market participants would use in pricing the instruments.

(c) Represents the range in volatility estimates that the Company has determined market participants would use when pricing the instruments.

(d) Represents the range of Company-specific risk adjustments that the Company has determined market participants would use as a model input.

Valuation Processes—Level 3 Measurements—Depending on the instrument, the Company utilizes broker quotes obtained from third-party valuation services, discounted cash flow methods, or option pricing methods, as indicated above. Valuations using discounted cash flow methods are generally conducted by the Company. Valuations using option pricing models are generally provided to the Company by third-party valuation experts. Each reporting period, the Company reviews the unobservable inputs used by third-party valuation experts for reasonableness utilizing relevant information available to the Company from other sources.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company began using broker quotes obtained from a valuation service (in replacement of a discounted cash flows method) for valuing auction rate securities. This approach provides the best available information.

Sensitivity Analysis—Level 3 Measurements—Changes in the structure credit risk would be unlikely to cause material changes in the fair value of the EETCs.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the United convertible debt derivative assets and liabilities are the expected volatility in UAL common stock and the Company’s own credit risk. Significant increases (decreases) in expected stock volatility would result in a higher (lower) fair value measurement. Significant increases (decreases) in the Company’s own credit risk would result in a lower (higher) fair value measurement. A change in one of the inputs would not necessarily result in a directionally similar change in the other.

Fair value of the financial instruments included in the tables above was determined as follows:

20

Description	Fair Value Methodology
Cash and cash equivalents	The carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these assets.
Short-term investments and Restricted cash	Fair value is based on (a) the trading prices of the investment or similar instruments, (b) an income approach, which uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts into a single present amount based on current market expectations about those future amounts when observable trading prices are not available, (c) internally-developed models of the expected future cash flows related to the securities, or (d) broker quotes obtained by third-party valuation services.
Fuel derivatives	Derivative contracts are privately negotiated contracts and are not exchange traded. Fair value measurements are estimated with option pricing models that employ observable inputs. Inputs to the valuation models include contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, fuel price curves and measures of volatility, among others.
Foreign currency derivatives	Fair value is determined with a formula utilizing observable inputs. Significant inputs to the valuation models include contractual terms, risk-free interest rates and forward exchange rates.
Debt	Fair values were based on either market prices or the discounted amount of future cash flows using our current incremental rate of borrowing for similar liabilities.
Convertible debt derivative asset and option liability	United used a binomial lattice model to value the conversion options and the supplemental derivative assets. Significant binomial model inputs that are not objectively determinable include volatility and discount rate.

NOTE 7—HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Aircraft Fuel Hedges. To protect against increases in the prices of aircraft fuel, the Company routinely hedges a portion of its future fuel requirements. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had hedged approximately 47% and 18% of its projected fuel requirements (942 million and 706 million gallons, respectively) for the remainder of 2013 and 2014, respectively, with commonly used financial hedge instruments based on aircraft fuel or closely related commodities, such as heating oil, diesel fuel and crude oil. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had fuel hedges expiring through December 2014. The Company does not enter into derivative instruments for non-risk management purposes.

Upon proper qualification, the Company accounts for certain fuel derivative instruments as cash flow hedges. All derivatives designated as hedges that meet certain requirements are granted hedge accounting treatment. The types of instruments the Company utilizes that qualify for special hedge accounting treatment typically include swaps, call options, collars (which consist of a purchased call option and a sold put option) and four-way collars (a collar with a higher strike sold call option and a lower strike purchased put option). Generally, utilizing hedge accounting, all periodic changes in fair value of the derivatives designated as hedges that are considered to be effective are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) until the underlying fuel is consumed and recorded in fuel expense. The Company is exposed to the risk that its hedges may not be effective in offsetting changes in the cost of fuel and that its hedges may not continue to qualify for hedge accounting. Hedge ineffectiveness results when the change in the fair value of the derivative instrument exceeds the change in the value of the Company’s expected future cash outlay to purchase and consume fuel. To the extent that the periodic changes in the fair value of the derivatives are not effective, that ineffectiveness is classified as Nonoperating income (expense): Miscellaneous, net in the statements of consolidated operations.

The Company also utilizes certain derivative instruments that are economic hedges but do not qualify for hedge accounting under U.S. GAAP. As with derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting, the purpose of these economic hedges is to mitigate the adverse financial impact of potential increases in the price of fuel. Currently, the only such economic hedges in the Company’s hedging portfolio are three-way collars (which consist of a collar with a cap on maximum price protection available). The Company records changes in the fair value of three-way collars to Nonoperating income (expense): Miscellaneous, net in the statements of consolidated operations.

If the Company terminates a derivative prior to its contractual settlement date, then the cumulative gain or loss recognized in AOCI at the termination date remains in AOCI until the forecasted transaction occurs. In a situation where it becomes probable that a hedged forecasted transaction will not occur, any gains and/or losses that have been recorded to AOCI would be required to be immediately reclassified into earnings. All cash flows associated with purchasing and settling derivatives are classified as operating cash flows in the condensed statements of consolidated cash flows.

21

The Company records each derivative instrument as a derivative asset or liability (on a gross basis) in its consolidated balance sheets, and, accordingly, records any related collateral on a gross basis.

The following tables present information about the financial statement classification of the Company’s derivatives (in millions):

Derivative Credit Risk and Fair Value

The Company is exposed to credit losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to its derivative instruments. While the Company records derivative instruments on a gross basis, the Company monitors its net derivative position with each counterparty to monitor credit risk. Based on the fair value of our fuel derivative instruments, our counterparties may require us to post collateral when the price of the underlying commodity decreases, and we may require our counterparties to provide us with collateral when the price of the underlying commodity increases. The following table presents information related to the Company’s derivative credit risk as of June 30, 2013 (in millions):

Commitments. On April 29, 2013, United entered into an agreement to purchase 30 Embraer EMB175 regional jets, scheduled for delivery in 2014 and 2015.

On June 17, 2013, United entered into supplemental agreements to United’s 787 aircraft purchase agreements with The Boeing Company (“Boeing”) to add to its existing firm order of Boeing 787 widebody aircraft ten Boeing 787-10 aircraft, convert an existing firm order for ten Boeing 787 aircraft into Boeing 787-10 aircraft and make certain other changes to those agreements. On June 19, 2013, United entered into amendments to its A350 purchase agreement with Airbus S.A.S. (“Airbus”) to add to its existing firm order of Airbus A350 widebody aircraft ten Airbus A350-1000 aircraft, convert its existing firm order for 25 Airbus A350-900 aircraft into Airbus A350-1000 aircraft and make certain other changes to the agreement. The Company expects to take delivery of the Boeing 787-10 aircraft and Airbus A350-1000 aircraft between 2018 and 2024.

23

As of June 30, 2013, UAL and United had the following commitments to purchase aircraft:

UAL Aircraft Commitments. UAL had firm commitments to purchase 100 new Boeing 737 MAX 9 aircraft scheduled for delivery from 2018 through 2025. UAL also had options to purchase additional Boeing 737 MAX 9 aircraft. UAL intends in the future to assign its interest under the purchase agreement for the 737 MAX 9 aircraft to United.

United Aircraft Commitments. United had firm commitments to purchase 199 new aircraft (59 Boeing 787 aircraft, 75 Boeing 737 aircraft, 35 Airbus A350-1000 aircraft, and 30 Embraer EMB175 aircraft) scheduled for delivery from July 1, 2013 through 2025. United also had options and purchase rights for additional aircraft. In the second quarter of 2013, United took delivery of six Boeing 737-900ER. In the remainder of 2013, United expects to take delivery of twelve Boeing 737-900ER aircraft and two Boeing 787-8 aircraft.

United had arranged for EETC financing of 14 Boeing 737-900ER aircraft, six of which were delivered during the second quarter of 2013 and two of which are scheduled to be delivered during the remainder of 2013. United also has arranged for EETC financing of one Boeing 787-8 aircraft and a bank debt financing commitment for one Boeing 737-900ER aircraft scheduled for delivery in the second half of 2013. In addition, United had secured backstop financing commitments from certain of its aircraft manufacturers for a limited number of its future aircraft deliveries, subject to certain customary conditions. However, the Company does not have backstop financing or any financing currently in place for its other firm aircraft orders. Financing will be necessary to satisfy the Company’s capital commitments for its firm order aircraft and other related capital expenditures. The Company can provide no assurance that any financing not already in place for aircraft and spare engine deliveries will be available to the Company on acceptable terms when necessary or at all. See Note 9 of this report for additional information on aircraft financing.

The Company has concluded its discussions with Boeing regarding certain contractual matters, including expected fuel burn, for current and future deliveries of certain Boeing 787 aircraft, and has reached a resolution with Boeing regarding compensation to be received in connection with those matters.

The table below summarizes the capital commitments of UAL and United (including those intended to be assigned from UAL) as of June 30, 2013, which primarily relate to the acquisition of aircraft and related spare engines, aircraft improvements and acquisition of information technology services and assets:

Any incremental firm aircraft orders, including through the exercise of purchase options, will increase the total future capital commitments of the Company.

Aircraft Operating Leases and Capacity Purchase Agreements

In May 2013, United entered into a capacity purchase agreement with SkyWest Airlines, Inc. (“SkyWest”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of SkyWest, Inc., to operate 40 Embraer EMB175 aircraft under the United Express brand. SkyWest will purchase these 76-seat aircraft with deliveries in 2014 and 2015. These 40 aircraft are in addition to United’s April 2013 agreement to purchase 30 Embraer EMB175 aircraft, which will be operated by a different United Express carrier.

The table below summarizes the Company’s future payments through the end of the terms of our capacity purchase commitments, excluding variable pass-through costs such as fuel and landing fees, among others. In addition, the table below summarizes the Company’s scheduled future minimum lease payments under aircraft operating leases having initial or remaining noncancelable lease terms of more than one year and includes aircraft rent under capacity purchase agreements, including estimated commitments from the Embraer EMB175 aircraft which will be delivered starting in 2014.

Guarantees and Off-Balance Sheet Financing

Guarantees. United is the guarantor of approximately $1.9 billion in aggregate principal amount of tax-exempt special facilities revenue bonds and interest thereon. These bonds, issued by various airport municipalities, are payable solely from rentals paid under long-term agreements with the respective governing bodies. The leasing arrangements associated with $1.7 billion of these obligations are accounted for as operating leases with the associated expense recorded on a straight-line basis resulting in ratable accrual of the lease obligation over the expected lease term. The leasing arrangements associated with $180 million of these obligations are accounted for as capital leases. All these bonds are due between 2015 and 2038.

In the Company’s financing transactions that include loans, the Company typically agrees to reimburse lenders for any reduced returns with respect to the loans due to any change in capital requirements and, in the case of loans in which the interest rate is based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), for certain other increased costs that the lenders incur in carrying these loans as a result of any change in law, subject in most cases to obligations of the lenders to take certain limited steps to mitigate the requirement for, or the amount of, such increased costs. At June 30, 2013, the Company had $2.0 billion of floating rate debt and $317 million of fixed rate debt, with remaining terms of up to nine years, that are subject to these increased cost provisions. In several financing transactions involving loans or leases from non-U.S. entities, with remaining terms of up to eight years and an aggregate balance of $2.2 billion, the Company bears the risk of any change in tax laws that would subject loan or lease payments thereunder to non-U.S. entities to withholding taxes, subject to customary exclusions.

Credit Facilities. On March 27, 2013, United and UAL entered into a new Credit and Guaranty Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) as the borrower and guarantor, respectively, that provides United with a $1.0 billion revolving credit facility. As of June 30, 2013, United had its entire capacity of $1.0 billion available under the revolving credit facility. See Note 9 of this report for more information.

25

Labor Negotiations. As of June 30, 2013, United had approximately 88,000 active employees, of whom approximately 80% were represented by various labor organizations. Having reached a ratified joint collective bargaining agreement with our pilots represented by the Air Line Pilots Association, International, we are currently in the process of negotiating joint collective bargaining agreements with our other major work groups, including our public contact co-workers, technicians, flight attendants and dispatchers.

NOTE 9—DEBT

As of June 30, 2013, a substantial portion of our assets are pledged as collateral for our debt. These assets principally consist of aircraft, route authorities and loyalty program intangible assets. As of June 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with its debt covenants.

Unsecured 6.375% Senior Notes. In May 2013, UAL issued $300 million aggregate principal amount of 6.375% Senior Notes due June 1, 2018. The notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed and recorded by United on its balance sheet as debt.

6% Convertible Senior Notes. During the second quarter of 2013, UAL issued approximately 22 million shares of UAL common stock pursuant to agreements that UAL entered into with certain of its securityholders in exchange for approximately $189 million in aggregate principal amount of UAL’s outstanding 6% convertible senior notes due 2029 held by such securityholders. See Note 3 of this report for more information.

2013 Credit and Guaranty Agreement. On March 27, 2013, United and UAL entered into the Credit Agreement as the borrower and guarantor, respectively. The Credit Agreement consists of a $900 million term loan due April 1, 2019 and a $1.0 billion revolving credit facility available for drawing until April 1, 2018. As of June 30, 2013, United had its entire capacity of $1.0 billion available under the revolving credit facility. The obligations of United under the Credit Agreement are secured by liens on certain international route authorities between certain specified cities, certain take-off and landing rights and related assets of United.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a variable rate equal to LIBOR, subject to a 1% floor, plus a margin of 3.0% per annum, or another rate based on certain market interest rates, plus a margin of 2.0% per annum. The principal amount of the term loan must be repaid in consecutive quarterly installments of 0.25% of the original principal amount thereof, commencing on June 30, 2013, with any unpaid balance due on April 1, 2019. United may prepay all or a portion of the loan from time to time, at par plus accrued and unpaid interest. United pays a commitment fee equal to 0.75% per annum on the undrawn amount available under the revolving credit facility.

The Credit Agreement includes covenants that, among other things, require the Company to maintain at least $3.0 billion of unrestricted liquidity and a minimum ratio of appraised value of collateral to the outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement of 1.67 to 1.0, and restrict the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, issue preferred stock, make investments or pay dividends. The Credit Agreement contains events of default customary for this type of financing, including a cross default and cross acceleration provision to certain other material indebtedness of the Company. Under the provisions of the Credit Agreement, UAL’s ability to pay dividends on or repurchase UAL’s common stock is restricted.

United Amended Credit Facility. On March 27, 2013, the Company used $900 million from the Credit Agreement, together with approximately $300 million of cash to retire the entire principal balance of a $1.2 billion term loan due 2014 that was outstanding under United’s Amended and Restated Revolving Credit, Term Loan and Guaranty Agreement, dated as of February 2, 2007 (the “Amended Credit Facility”). The Amended Credit Facility was terminated concurrently with the repayment of the term loan.

$500 Million Revolving Credit Facility. On March 27, 2013, the Company terminated the $500 million revolving credit facility that it had previously entered into in December 2011. There were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility.

Debt Redemptions. On February 1, 2013, United redeemed all of the $400 million aggregate principal amount of its 9.875% Senior Secured Notes due 2013 and $200 million aggregate principal amount of 12.0% Senior Second Lien Notes due 2013. On February 8, 2013, United redeemed all $123 million aggregate principal amount of the B tranche of the 2006-1 EETC equipment notes due 2013. On April 1, 2013, United redeemed all of the $180 million aggregate principal amount of the senior tranche of the 2006-1 EETC equipment notes due 2013.

EETCs. In October 2012, United created two pass-through trusts, one of which issued $712 million aggregate principal amount of Class A pass-through certificates with a stated interest rate of 4% and the second of which issued $132 million aggregate principal amount of Class B pass-through certificates with a stated interest rate of 5.5%. The proceeds of the issuance of the Class A and Class B pass-through certificates, which amounted to $844 million, are used to purchase equipment notes issued by United. Of the $844 million in proceeds raised by the pass-through trusts, United received $696 million as of June 30, 2013,

26

of which $202 million and $403 million was received in the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. United expects to receive the remaining proceeds from the issuance through the second half of 2013 as aircraft are delivered and United issues equipment notes to the trusts. The Company records the debt obligation upon issuance of the equipment notes rather than upon the initial issuance of the pass-through certificates. The proceeds have been and are expected to fund the acquisition of new aircraft.

In December 2012, United created one pass-through trust which issued $425 million aggregate principal amount of Class C pass-through certificates with a stated interest rate of 6.125%. The proceeds of the issuance of the Class C pass-through certificates are used to purchase equipment notes issued by United related to the aircraft financed in both the March and October 2012 EETC financings. Of the $425 million in proceeds raised by the pass-through trust, United received $385 million as of June 30, 2013, of which $53 million and $107 million was received in the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. United expects to receive the remaining proceeds from the issuance through the second half of 2013 as aircraft are delivered and United issues equipment notes to the trust. The Company records the debt obligation upon issuance of the equipment notes rather than upon the initial issuance of the pass-through certificates.

NOTE 10—SPECIAL ITEMS

Special Charges. For the three and six months ended June 30, special charges consisted of the following (in millions):

	Three Months Ended June 30,					Six Months Ended June 30,

Income tax benefit		—		—			—			(2	)
Total special charges, net of income taxes	$	52	$	206		$	144		$	368

Merger integration-related costs include compensation costs related to systems integration and training, costs to repaint aircraft and other branding activities, new uniforms, costs to write-off or accelerate depreciation on systems and facilities that are no longer used or planned to be used for significantly shorter periods, relocation costs for employees and severance primarily associated with administrative headcount reductions.

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded $14 million associated with a voluntary program offered by United in which flight attendants took an unpaid 13-month leave of absence. The flight attendants continue to receive medical benefits and other company benefits while on leave under this program. Approximately 1,300 flight attendants opted to participate in the program. In addition, the Company recorded $18 million associated with the temporary grounding of its Boeing 787 aircraft, $7 million of which was recorded during the second quarter of 2013. The charges are comprised of aircraft depreciation expense and dedicated personnel costs that the Company incurred while the aircraft were grounded. The aircraft returned to service in May 2013. Also, the Company recorded a $5 million gain related to a contract termination and $2 million in losses on the sale of assets.

27

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded $76 million and $125 million of severance and benefits associated with three voluntary employee programs, respectively. During the first quarter of 2012, approximately 400 mechanics offered to retire early in exchange for a cash severance payment that was based on the number of years of service each employee had accumulated. The Company also offered a voluntary leave of absence program that approximately 1,800 flight attendants accepted, which allows for continued medical coverage during the leave of absence period. During the second quarter of 2012, as part of the recently amended collective bargaining agreement with the Association of Flight Attendants, the Company offered a voluntary program for flight attendants at United to retire early in exchange for a cash severance payment. The payments are dependent on the number of years of service each employee has accumulated. Approximately 1,300 flight attendants accepted this program and the Company estimates the amount for this voluntary program to be approximately $76 million.

In March 2013, the Company agreed to sell up to 30 Boeing 757-200 aircraft to FedEx Corporation beginning in April 2013. As of December 31, 2012, the Company operated 133 such aircraft. Given the planned sale of up to 30 of these aircraft, the Company evaluated the entire fleet and determined that no impairment existed. However, the Company adjusted the salvage value of the aircraft designated for sale to its sales price and will record additional depreciation from the agreement date to the date of sale. This additional depreciation is not classified as special. The additional depreciation in the first six months of 2013 totaled $40 million and is estimated to be approximately $80 million for the full year 2013.

Accruals

The accrual for severance and medical costs was $38 million as of June 30, 2013, compared to $153 million as of June 30, 2012. In addition, the accrual balance of future lease payments on permanently grounded aircraft was $3 million as of June 30, 2013, compared to $8 million as of June 30, 2012.

The severance-related accrual as of June 30, 2013 is expected to be paid through 2015. Lease payments for grounded aircraft are expected to continue through 2013.

Outlook

In order to generate sustained profitability over the business cycle, the Company manages its capacity to balance with expected demand for travel. For the first six months of 2013, consolidated capacity decreased 3.5% compared to the first six months of 2012. The Company expects full-year 2013 consolidated capacity to decrease 0.75% to 1.75% year-over-year, with full-year 2013 domestic capacity to decrease 0.8% to 1.8% and full-year 2013 international capacity to decrease 0.7% to 1.7%. The Company expects full year 2013 cost per available seat mile (“CASM”) excluding profit sharing, third-party business expense, fuel and special charges to increase 5.5% to 6.5% year-over-year.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion provides an analysis of results of operations and reasons for material changes therein for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2012.

Second Quarter 2013 Compared to Second Quarter 2012

The Company recorded net income of $469 million in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to net income of $339 million in the second quarter of 2012. Excluding special items, the Company had net income of $521 million in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to net income of $545 million in the second quarter of 2012. See “Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures” at the end of this item for additional information related to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) to non-GAAP financial measures. We consider a key measure of our performance to be operating income, which was $770 million for the second quarter of 2013, as compared to $575 million for the second quarter of 2012.

(a) See Item 6 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 for the definition of these statistics.

Consolidated passenger revenue in the second quarter of 2013 decreased 1.1% as compared to the year-ago period due to a decline of 3.0% in the number of passengers flown year-over-year as a result of a reduction in capacity of 2.1%, offset in part by an increase in the consolidated average fare per passenger of 1.9%.

Cargo revenue decreased $29 million, or 10.9%, in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to the year-ago period due to lower volumes on freight and mail across all regions.

Other operating revenue in the second quarter of 2013 increased $191 million, or 21.1%, as compared to the year-ago period due primarily to the sale of aircraft fuel to a third party as well as other MileagePlus and marketing-related revenue.

	$	9,231	$	9,364	$	(133	)		(1.4	)

Aircraft fuel expense decreased $340 million, or 10.0%, year-over-year due primarily to an 8.2% decrease in the average price per gallon of fuel and a 1.8% decrease in fuel consumption in the second quarter of 2013 as a result of reduced capacity. The table below presents the significant changes in aircraft fuel cost per gallon in the three month period ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the year-ago period:

33

	(In millions)									Average price per gallon
	2013			2012			% Change			2013			2012			% Change

Total fuel consumption (gallons)		1,016			1,035			(1.8	)

(a) Includes ineffectiveness gains (losses) on settled hedges and gains (losses) on settled hedges that were not designated for hedge accounting. These amounts are recorded in Nonoperating income (expense): Miscellaneous, net.

(b) This figure does not include mark-to-market (“MTM”) gains or losses, which the Company records in Nonoperating income (expense): Miscellaneous, net. MTM losses were $81 million and $30 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Salaries and related costs increased $151 million, or 7.5%, in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to the year-ago period primarily due to a 0.7% increase in the number of employees, higher pay rates driven by new collective bargaining agreements as well as increased pension plan costs.

Aircraft maintenance materials and outside repairs increased $48 million, or 11.1%, in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to the year-ago period primarily due to United’s reliability improvement initiatives which increased volumes of airframe checks, engine overhauls, and aircraft modification projects.

Depreciation and amortization increased $47 million, or 12.4%, in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to the year-ago period due to additions in owned property and equipment in the current year, specifically related to aircraft and improvements at airport facilities, as well as accelerated depreciation on Boeing 757-200 aircraft in process of being sold to a third party.

Other operating expenses increased $140 million, or 11.9%, in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to the year-ago period primarily due to the cost of aircraft fuel sold to a third party and an increase in other personnel-related expenses.

Details of the Company’s special charges include the following for the three months ended June 30 (in millions):

	2013		2012
Merger integration-related costs	$	45	$	137

Nonoperating Income (Expense). The following table illustrates the year-over-year dollar and percentage changes in the Company’s nonoperating income (expense) for the three months ended June 30 (in millions, except for percentage changes):

34

	2013			2012			Increase (Decrease)			% Change
Interest expense	$	(194	)	$	(213	)	$	(19	)		(8.9	)

Miscellaneous, net		(123	)		(38	)		85			NM
Total	$	(299	)	$	(235	)	$	64			27.2

Interest expense decreased $19 million, or 8.9%, in the second quarter of 2013, compared to the year-ago period primarily due to a decrease in debt outstanding during the second quarter of 2013 as compared to debt outstanding during the year-ago period.

During the second quarter of 2013, the fuel hedge ineffectiveness loss in miscellaneous, net was $1 million as compared to fuel hedge ineffectiveness loss of $29 million in the year-ago period. Second quarter 2013 miscellaneous, net also included loss of $81 million from derivatives not qualifying for hedge accounting.

United’s nonoperating expense also includes net loss of $8 million and net gain of $30 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, associated with marking to market the fair value of derivative assets and liabilities related to agreements that provide for United’s convertible debt to be settled with UAL common stock. This net gain/loss and related derivatives are reflected only in the United stand-alone financial statements as they are eliminated at the consolidated level. See Note 6 to the financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this report for additional information.
