• Pessimistic Scenario• Medium Scenario• Optimistic Scenario

Cash Flow – Pessimistic Scenario

Assumptions

1. LR investment in BOT contract grew from 15 M USD to 19,75 M USD due to the increase of the terminal from 3.000 M2 to 6.200 M2.

2. There were major changes from the original 1999 forecast: a) International traffic goes now to Brazzaville and already now traffic is 54%

less than 1999 b) Train line Pointe Noire- Brazzaville will dramatically reduce Cargo traffic.

3. Net Profit is calculated after payment of "concession fees" in any form to Congo.

4. 4.5% is the International general aviation rate of growth5. 10% rate of growth for 3 years upon operating the new Terminal and the

extended runway.6. 8.75% is the best finance rate that can be achieved for investments in Africa

without any risk premium. Nevertheless, we are applying 4.75%.7. Any additional investment will require extension of the concession period in

order to recover it.

EL- AIR The Pointe Noire Airport Project Cash Flow / Return on Investment - Pessimistic Scenario

Nominal Present Value

Cash Flow – Medium Scenario

Assumptions

1. LR investment in BOT contract grew from 15 M USD to 19,75M USD due to the increase of the terminal from 3.000 M2 to 6.200 M2.

2. Although there were major changes from the original 1999 forecast, we believe that with LR management the level of the nominal income of 1999 will be kept as a basis for 2000 and onwards.

3. Net Profit is calculated after payment of "concession fees" in any form to Congo.

4. LR management will achieve a higher rate of growth than the international aviation rate.

5. 20% rate of growth for 3 years upon operating the new Terminal and the extended runway.

6. 8.75% is the best finance rate that can be achieved for investments in Africa without any risk premium. Nevertheless, we are applying 6.75%.

7. Any additional investment will require extension of the concession period in order to recover it.
