price of the Singapore Jet hedge is US$70.78 per barrel. The average ceiling price of the WTI crude oil hedge is US$65.08 per barrel.

  • The second half of FY10 is 54% hedged with the average

ceiling at US$73.16 per barrel of WTI crude oil

* Fuel hedge position as at 21 August 2009. Refer to separate fuel hedge disclosure.

CURRENCY HEDGING

  • 2010 US dollar operating cash flow exposure is approx.

88% hedged at an average NZ$/US$ rate of 0.69

  • US$322m of future capex commitments are hedged at

NZ$/US$ rate of 0.73 (spot)

OUTLOOK

  • While demand is stabilising, yields remain under significant

pressure, fuel prices have resumed an upward trend and we are unlikely to achieve the same level of net hedging gains

  • The same agility displayed in the 2009 financial year will be

imperative throughout the next year
