    seasoned team to deploy a co-branded eVTOL network in Brazil. We're also
    thrilled to welcome Gabrielle Toledano and Henri Courpron to the future Board of
    Directors of Lilium N.V., where they'll strengthen our Board with their

    Brazil in terms of cities served and daily departures. Our brand presence, our
    unique route network, and our powerful loyalty program give us the tools to
    create the markets and demand for the Lilium Jet network in Brazil. As we did in
    the Brazilian domestic market over the last 13 years, we look forward to again,
    now with the Lilium Jet, working to create a whole new market in the years to
    come."

    David Neeleman, Chairman of Azul, said: "Since Azul's founding 13 years ago, the
    Brazilian aviation market has doubled with Azul capturing almost 60% of the
    growth. We know how to create and grow new markets, and once again we see huge
    market opportunity by bringing the Lilium Jet to Brazil."

    Lilium also announced the appointment of Gabrielle Toledano, Chief Operating
    Officer at Keystone Strategy LLC, and Henri Courpron, Founder and Chairman of
    Plane View Partners LLC, and former CEO of ILFC and Airbus North America to the
    Board of Directors of Lilium N.V., which will be chaired by former Airbus CEO
    Thomas Enders, upon completion of the business combination with Qell.

    Gabrielle Toledano brings over 30 years of leadership experience in technology,
    gaming and digital transformation within Fortune 500 companies such as Tesla,
    Electronic Arts, Microsoft and Oracle. She is currently the Chief Operating
    Officer at Keystone Strategy LLC. Her previous positions include the role of
    Executive in Residence for Comcast Ventures and its portfolio companies and
    Chief People Officer at Tesla, Electronic Arts and Siebel Systems.

    With over 30 years in management positions in the aviation industry, Henri
