Gentlemen:

This refers to your letter dated 07 September 2021, seeking clarification of the news article entitled “PAL expects to exit Chapter 11 within 2021” posted in Manila Bulletin news on 06 September 2021. The article reported in part that:

“Philippine Airlines (PAL) expects to be out of Chapter 11 before this year ends and remains optimistic it will survive and ‘fly long into the future’, although travel demand won’t return to pre-pandemic levels until 2024-2025.

. . . .”

Reference to the above-quoted statement, we wish to clarify that it is a statement of hope or wish from the senior Management of PAL that the Chapter 11 process will end quickly rather than a statement based on any legal consideration. There is no certainty that the judicial proceeding will terminate quickly that will allow PAL to exit Chapter 11 process before the end of 2021. It will all depend on the acceptance, oppositions or agreements of the creditors, lessors and other stakeholders to the proposed rehabilitation/ restructuring of PAL. At best, it is an optimistic view of the speaker which may not necessarily happen.

Hope the above clarifies your query.

Very truly yours,
PAL HOLDINGS, INC.
