Although Statutory Authorities and Government Companies are legally separate from the Government, they are all owned by the Government on behalf of the people of the Cayman Islands. This ownership relationship exists regardless of whether ownership is reflected in the form of shares or a formal capital holding. Like any owner, the Government expects the organisations it owns to perform within agreed boundaries. The purpose of the Ownership Agreement is to specify the ownership performance that the Cabinet and the Board of each Statutory Authority or Government Company have agreed the Authority or Company will seek to achieve during the 2008/9 financial year. Ownership performance is the performance that an owner of an organisation expects and can be categorised into five areas: • Nature and Scope of Activities • Strategic Goals and Objectives • Financial Performance • Maintenance of Human and Physical Capability • Risk Management Each of these five dimensions of performance is specified in the Ownership Agreement. In addition, the Ownership Agreement specifies any ownership financial flows between the Authority or Company and the Government namely: • Equity Investments • Capital Withdrawls • Dividend or Profit Distributions • Government Loans • Government Guarantees In addition to its ownership relationship, the Government also has a purchase relationship with some Statutory Authorities and Government Companies. This performance is specified in a separate document: a Purchase Agreement. 2008/9 Ownership Agreements 5 6 2004/5 Ownership Agreements BUDGET 2008/9 Ownership Agreement Between The Cabinet of the Cayman Islands Government and Cayman Airways Limited For the year ending 30 June 2009 2008/9 Ownership Agreements 7 Contents 1.

The company also owns two Twin Otter aircraft through a wholly owned subsidiary – Cayman Airways Express. The aircraft provide service between Grand Cayman and the sister islands of Cayman Brac and Little Cayman.

Strategic Goals and Objectives The key strategic goals and objectives (from an ownership perspective) for Cayman Airways Limited for the 2008/9 financial year are as follows: • Continue the process of restructuring the company based on the “turnaround” strategies as part of the process towards sustainability. The objective is to reduce and subsequently eliminate the gap that exists between revenue and expenses by focusing on being more efficient in all areas of our operations. • The airline will continue to target costs reductions in expenses. The restructuring of the company has seen the inclusion of a Purchasing department in the new structure. It is expected that the new purchasing procedures and supply chain management will produce significant cost savings. • The company will be implementing new cash management systems and procedures which are expected to improve the use of financial resources. • The airline plans to achieve sisterhood in its aircraft fleet through the move to an all 737-300 jet fleet which will reduce the costs related to stocking of spare parts, training and retaining technical staff and other maintenance costs. • The company intends to aggressively pursue possible alternatives to minimize the costs of fuel. Cayman Airways expect to continue to benefit from improved fuel prices through joint negotiations in the budget year. • The new computerized reservation system (CRS) which was implemented in January 2007 allows the company to improve several areas including customer service, electronic ticketing and reporting. The reporting capability of this is being further expanded to allow for better revenue management. • The airline expects to continue working with the public sector as well as to embark on joint initiatives with the private sector to coordinate marketing and advertising efforts. • The National Flag Carrier will continue to explore commercial agreements with select international carriers. The commercial agreements may range from connected websites to full code share agreements. • The airline will continue to implement the recommendations produced by the efficiency audit in order to improve revenue and reduce costs. 10 2004/5 Ownership Agreements 4.
