Termination of Letter of Intent
     On December 16, 2005, AirNet Systems, Inc. (“AirNet”) issued a news release (the “Release”) announcing that AirNet has been unable to reach a definitive merger agreement with the private equity investment firm that entered into a letter of intent with AirNet on October 26, 2005. As a result, the Special Committee of AirNet’s Board of Directors has allowed the exclusivity period with the firm to expire. As previously disclosed, AirNet entered into a letter of intent for the sale of the company to the nationally recognized private equity investment firm in a going private transaction. Pursuant to the terms of the letter of intent, the private equity investment firm had exclusivity until December 15, 2005 to complete its confirmatory due diligence and execute a definitive merger agreement. A copy of the Release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by this reference.
