Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Agreement.

On January 9, 2026, flyExclusive, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Lucid Capital Markets, LLC, as representative of the several underwriters named therein (the “Underwriter”). Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company agreed to sell 2,255,639 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), to the Underwriter at a public offering price of $6.65 per share, less underwriting discounts and commissions. Additionally, the Company has granted the Underwriter a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 222,833 shares of Common Stock at the same public offering price and underwriting discount (the “Over-allotment Option”).

In connection with the execution of the Underwriting Agreement, each member of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) and certain Company officers entered into 90-day “lock-up” agreements in substantially the form included in the Underwriting Agreement as Exhibit A.

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and covenants of the Company and the Underwriter and also provides for customary indemnification by each of the Company and the Underwriter against certain liabilities and customary contribution provisions in respect of those liabilities.

The offering is expected to close on January 12, 2026. The Company expects to receive approximately $13.8 million in net proceeds from the offering (excluding the Over-allotment Option), after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses.

The sale of the Common Stock was made pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-287720), including a prospectus supplement dated January 9, 2026 to the prospectus contained therein dated June 30, 2025, filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

A copy of the opinion of Wyrick Robbins Yates & Ponton LLP relating to the legality of the issuance and sale of the Common Stock is attached as Exhibit 5.1 hereto.
