The forecast has been prepared having regard, inter alia, to projections by the Cathay Pacific Group of its fleet size, its annual aircraft utilisation and other operating parameters and take into account the fact that there are (or were in the case of aircraft which have already been delivered) firm orders for the delivery of 89 aircraft from 2013 to 2020.

Cushions have been added to provide flexibility for possible changes in the level of Services associated with the growth of the Cathay Pacific Group and in the scheduled and possible unscheduled maintenance of its aircraft. The Directors estimate that the amounts payable for the Services in respect of aircraft maintenance for the 10 years ending 31st December 2022 will not exceed the annual caps set out below, which consolidate and replace the annual caps previously set for the Transactions. The annual caps in - 4 - respect of Services payable by the Cathay Pacific Group to the HAECO Group (including HXITM) (and vice versa) and by the HAECO Group (excluding HXITM) to HXITM (and vice versa) include Services provided under the joint venture agreement entered into between Cathay Pacific, HAECO and HXITM on 24th September 2012, in respect of which Cathay Pacific and HAECO published an announcement dated 24th September 2012. The annual caps in respect of Services payable by the Cathay Pacific Group to the HAECO Group for 2013 to 2016 were approved at the Company’s EGM held on 29th June 2007 and remain unchanged.

In line with the international practice in phasing out noisier aircraft, the Ordinance stipulates that all subsonic jet aircraft flying in and out of Hong Kong shall meet the noise standard specified in Chapter 3 of Annex 16 Volume I, Part II to the Convention on International Civil Aviation. The Regulations require all subsonic jet aircraft departing or landing in Hong Kong to be certified in accordance with international established procedures. 7.2.1.2 On the other hand, the EIAO provides the fundamental legislation with established noise criteria for evaluating noise impact of designated projects and these include aircraft noise. Annex 5 of the EIAO-TM published under the EIAO sets out the criteria for evaluating the noise impact of designated projects. It prescribes the appropriate noise metrics and noise planning criteria for various types of noise sources and land uses.
