This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D relates to shares of Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of AerSale Corporation (f/k/a Monocle Holdings Inc.), a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”) and amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 3, 2020, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D, filed with the SEC on April 2, 2021 (collectively, the “Schedule 13D”). This Amendment No. 2 is being filed to amend the Schedule 13D to reflect the addition of Green Equity Investors CF, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, Green Equity Investors Side CF, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, LGP Associates CF LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and GEI Capital CF, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as members of the group by virtue of the transfer of the shares held by Green Equity Investors V, L.P. (“GEI V”), Green Equity Investors Side V, L.P. (“GEI Side V”), and LGP Parts Coinvest LLC (“Coinvest”) to such new members (as described in Item 6 below).

The address of the Issuer’s principal executive offices is 121 Alhambra Plaza, Suite 1700, Coral Gables, Florida 33134.

Consequently, this Amendment No. 2 represents an exit filing with respect to each of GEI V, GEI Side V, Coinvest, Holdings, and Capital V.
