Gentlemen:

This refers to your letter dated September 22, 2021, seeking clarification of the news article entitled “PAL seeks local recognition of Chapter 11 rulings” posted in BusinessWorld (Online Edition) today. The article reported in part that:

“PHILIPPINE Airlines, Inc. (PAL) said on Tuesday that it has filed a petition before a Pasay City court seeking recognition of the proceedings and decisions of a United States bankruptcy court hearing its Chapter 11 case.

‘The recognition petition filed by PAL before a local court is a petition which aims to ensure that the Philippine legal system recognizes all proceedings and decisions rendered by the foreign court handling the Chapter 11 case,’ PAL Spokesperson Cielo C. Villaluna said in a statement sent to BusinessWorld.

‘This was filed before a Pasay City court yesterday, Sept. 20,’ she added.

. . . .”

In accordance with the over-all plan in regard to the filing of the Chapter 11 petition before the US Court of New York, we confirm that a petition has been filed by Philippine Airlines Inc. before a Pasay City court for the principal purpose of ensuring that the local courts will recognize formally the Chapter 11 process and the corresponding decisions the New York court may grant or award.

Hope we have sufficiently clarified your query.


Very truly yours,

PAL HOLDINGS, INC.
