This report by EL AL is being published in proximity to the First International CSR Conference to be held in Israel. Following two decades of activity on the issue, we invited the global arena to get an impression of the Israeli experience.

Israeli corporate responsibility is characterized by creativity and innovation, alertness and dynamism, focus on social challenges and caring. In recent years we see significant growth and development of the issue in Israel, also in comparison to the global arena.

EL AL, one of the companies most identified with the State of Israel, reflects in its report how these characteristics are implemented in practice. Particularly eye catching are the stories of the relief aircraft following the Nepal earthquake; the EL AL Ambassadors program – aircrew members who volunteer to represent Israel abroad; air transport of sick children and so forth. No less important are the steps taken to increase employment diversity within EL AL, in a manner that is significant to the employees being hired, but also, in a company that is “not just an airline. It’s Israel”, represents the entirety of the country’s faces and identities.

Even in the context of more challenging years for the aviation sector economically and certainly during better years, EL AL is operating diligently and is highly commitment, for which we convey our congratulations.

This effort has led and continues to lead the international community and renewable resources required for this activity, in order to mitigate their extent. countries of the word to take substantial steps, including the adoption of principles Additionally, steps are taken to prevent environmental hazards, while adhering and rules by means of international treaties and local-national legislation. Such to Israeli and international environmental regulations, as well as taking action steps do not disregard the aviation sector, considering its operations have beyond regulatory compliance requirements. significant environmental impacts. Therefore, as stated in our sustainability policy: "We operate in cooperation with other At EL AL we are aware of the direct and indirect impacts that our business entities to ensure sustainable aviation in Israel, from the understanding that Earth's and operational activities have on the environment, especially considering the natural resources are commons and should be preserved for future generations". constantly increasing demand for flights. We consider environmental protection, mitigation of our environmental impacts and the improvement of our environmental performances to be our long term objectives.

82 G4-14 Environmental Management Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions G4 DMA We devote much effort to minimizing the environmental impacts of our ground Most of the Company's greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions result from its aerial operations. As part of these efforts, inspections are conducted regularly to operations.

The noticeable increase in GHG emissions results primarily from an increase in jet fuel consumption, emanating from the growth in the number of flights conducted between 2015 and 2013.

83 G4 Reducing Jet Fuel Use and GHG Emissions DMA

As an airline, most of our GHG emissions result from aerial operations. Therefore, G4 we have taken diverse actions in recent years to minimize our consumption of EN15 jet fuels.

Out of this outlook and our commitment to the laws and still applicable today. An additional possibility being considered by the Europeans regulations of the European Union with regard to GHG emissions in the civil is that GHG emissions of aircraft will be measured from the minute they enter EU aviation sector, we have joined the European Union Emissions Trading System – member countries' airspace until they depart it. EU-ETS in 2010, its pilot year of operation. This EU mechanism was established to determine economic indemnification for deviation or mitigation of GHG emissions Since a decision has not yet been made regarding the methodology of measurement, resulting from aerial activity, in a cap and trade system. In this framework, EL AL charge and exceeding allowances, we are preparing for all contingencies. and all airlines flying to and from Europe receive an emission allowance, covering G4 GHG Emissions from European Flights Reported to EU-ETS (2013-2015) EN15 a share of their total flights, within which they can trade.

Additionally, there are specific noise protocols intending to respond to noise limitations at airports in which the general protocols do not suffice. The protocols include clear guidelines for performance of the horizontal and vertical profiles of the flight, as well as the heights of transition from ascending power to elevation power and the manner of folding the tow. As they approach landing, we guide our pilots to lower tow (wheels and landing gear) as late as possible in order to alleviate the noise hazard for residents who live in close proximity to the final approach path, and to operate the Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) as late as possible before the flight.
