Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacífico, S.A.B. de C.V. and subsidiaries (the “Company” or “GAP”) was incorporated in May 1998 as a state-owned entity to manage, operate and develop 12 airport facilities, mainly in Mexico’s Pacific region.

Moreover the Company operates, maintains and utilizes two airports in Jamaica, starting in April 2015, the Sangster International Airport in Montego Bay, Jamaica by the subsidiary MBJ Airports Limited (MBJA), and on October 2019 the Norman Manley International Airport (NMIA) by the subsidiary PAC Kingston Airport Limited (PACKAL). The Company’s principal address is Mariano Otero Avenue 1249 B, six floor, Rinconada del Bosque, zip code 44530, Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico.
| a. | Activities
The Company began operations on November 1, 1998. Prior to that date, the Company’s activities were carried out by Aeropuertos y Servicios Auxiliares (ASA), a Mexican Governmental agency, which was responsible for the operation of all public airports in Mexico. In June 1998, the subsidiaries of Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacífico, S.A.B. de C.V. were granted concessions by the Ministry of Communications and Transportation (SCT) to manage, operate and develop each of the Pacific Group’s 12 airports and benefit from the use of the airport facilities, for a 50-year term beginning November 1, 1998 (The Concession or Concessions). The cost of the concessions, which totaled Ps.15,938,359, was determined by the Mexican Government in August 1999, based upon the price paid by Aeropuertos Mexicanos del Pacífico, S.A.P.I. de C.V. (AMP, the strategic shareholder of the Company) for its interests in GAP. On August 20, 1999, GAP entered into a Liabilities Assumption Agreement with each of its subsidiaries, whereby it assumed the liabilities incurred by each subsidiary derived from obtaining the concession. Such liabilities were capitalized by GAP as equity in favor of the Mexican Government on the same date. The term of the concession is 50 years as of November 1, 1998 and may be extended by the SCT on one or more occasions for up to 50 additional years under certain circumstances. Beginning on November 1, 1998, the Company is required to pay an annual tax to the Mexican Government, through the SCT, for use of the public property, equivalent to 5% of each concessionaire’s annual gross revenues, according to the concession terms and the Mexican Federal Duties Law. Title to all of the long-term fixed assets within the airports is retained by the Mexican Government. Accordingly, upon expiration of the term of the concessions granted to the Company, the assets, including all of the improvements made to the airport facilities during the term of the concessions, shall automatically revert to the Mexican Government. Additionally, ASA and other agencies of the Mexican Government maintain the rights to provide certain services such as air traffic control, fuel supply and immigration control. On February 24, 2006, the Company made an initial public offering of its Series B shares, under which the Mexican Government, which held 85% of the voting common stock of the Company sold its 100% shares participation, both in the United States of America, via the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and in Mexico, via the Mexican Stock Exchange (BMV). Consequently, as of this date, the Company became a public entity in both Mexico and in the United States of America and is required to meet various legal obligations and regulations for public entities applicable in each country. On April 20, 2015, the Company carried out a transaction for the acquisition of 100% of the shares of the Spanish company Desarrollo de Concesiones Aeroportuarias, S.L. (DCA). The transaction was fully paid on the same date. The acquisition was the result of a private and confidential bidding process among various participants, which concluded in favor of GAP. The total amount of the transaction was USD$192 million. DCA has a 74.5% stake in MBJA, the entity that operates Sangster International airport in Montego Bay in Jamaica. MBJA holds the concession to operate, maintain and utilize the airport for a period of 30 years, beginning April 2, 2003. Vantage Airport Group Limited (Vantage) owns the remaining 25.5% stake in MBJA. DCA also has a 14.77% stake in SCL Terminal Aéreo Santiago, S.A. (SCL), the operator of the international terminal in Santiago, Chile until September 30, 2015. On September 30, 2015, the concession to operate the Santiago de Chile airport expired, consequently, those assets were immediately returned to the Chilean government and the new operator without any significant incidents. Though SCL will no longer have operations, SCL must remain in effect for an additional year after the transfer. After that first year, SCL will remain in effect until its dissolution in accordance with tax regulations in Chile. On October 10, 2018, the Company through its subsidiary PACKAL, entered into a concession agreement with Airport Authority of Jamaica (AAJ), with which the authority guaranteed to PACKAL the right to rehabilitate, develop, operate and maintain NMIA for a period of 25 years with a possible extension of 5 years, as of October 10, 2019. In accordance with the terms of the concession agreement, the Company paid USD $7.1 million (USD $2.1 million to the International Finance Corporation (IFC) and USD $5.0 million to the AAJ). Once the operation begins, PACKAL is obliged to pay the AAJ a concession right of 62.01% of the total aeronautical and commercial revenues. All long-lived assets located in the NMIA are owned by AAJ. Upon the expiration of the term of the concessions agreement granted to the Company, the assets, including all the improvements made to the airport facilities during the term of the concessions, will automatically revert in favor of AAJ.
