Aersale Corp

Monocle Acquisition Corporation ("Monocle") was initially formed as a Delaware corporation on August 20, 2018 for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses.

On December 22, 2020, Monocle consummated the previously announced business combination pursuant to that certain Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated September 8, 2020 (the "Merger Agreement") by and among Monocle, the Company, AerSale Aviation, Inc. (f/k/a AerSale Corp.), a Delaware corporation ("AerSale Aviation"), Monocle Merger Sub 1 Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Merger Sub 1"), Monocle Merger Sub 2 LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Merger Sub 2"), and Leonard Green & Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, solely in its capacity as the initial Holder Representative (as defined in the Merger Agreement). The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are referred to herein as the "Merger" or the "Business Combination" and in connection therewith, Monocle merged with and into us, whereby we survived the merger and became the successor issuer to Monocle by operation of Rule 12g-3 under the Exchange Act.

Upon the consummation of the Merger: (a) Merger Sub 1 was merged with and into Monocle, with Monocle surviving the merger as a wholly-owned direct subsidiary of the Company, and (b) Merger Sub 2 was merged with and into AerSale Aviation, with AerSale Aviation surviving the merger as a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of the Company. In connection with the closing of the Business Combination, AerSale Aviation changed its name from "AerSale Corp." to "AerSale Aviation, Inc." and the Company changed its name from "Monocle Holdings Inc." to "AerSale Corporation." Immediately following the Merger, the Company contributed all of its ownership in Monocle to AerSale Aviation, which continued as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

Our mission is to provide full-service support to owners and operators of mid-life commercial aircraft who lack the infrastructure and/or expertise to cost-effectively maintain such aircraft during the second half of their operating life through their retirement from service. By providing a one-stop shop that integrates multiple service and product offerings, we save our customers time and money, while providing value to our stockholders through our operating efficiency. We were founded in 2008 by Nicolas Finazzo and Robert B. Nichols as a platform to serve the aviation aftermarket. In early 2010, we partnered with private equity firm Leonard Green & Partners, L.P. to scale our business and finance the creation of a purpose built and fully integrated aviation company. Since our founding, we have established a global footprint and scalable platform for growth.
