History of MacroAsia Corporation

MacroAsia Corporation was incorporated in the Philippines on February 16, 1970, originally under the name Infanta Mineral & Industrial Corporation to engage in the business of geological exploration and development. As a mining firm, it had actually mined its leased areas in Brooke’s Point, Palawan during the 1970’s. On January 26, 1994, the Articles of Incorporation was amended to change its primary purpose from geological exploration and development to that of engaging in the business of a holding company, and to change its corporate name to Cobertson Holdings Corporation. On November 6, 1995, the Company’s Articles of Incorporation was again amended to change its corporate name to its present name.

In June 1996, the Company incorporated two of its 100% wholly-owned subsidiaries: MacroAsia Air Taxi Services, Inc. (MAATS) and MacroAsia Properties Development Corporation (MAPDC). MAATS provides helicopter charter services, while MAPDC operates the special economic zone at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA). In October 1996, the Company started its first in-flight catering business through Cebu Pacific Catering Services, Inc. (CPCS), the only in-flight caterer in Mactan-Cebu International Airport. By November of 1996, it has incorporated its second in-flight catering venture, MacroAsia Catering Services, Inc. (MACS), which is the dominant caterer of foreign airlines in NAIA since it operated in 1998.

Another subsidiary, MacroAsia Airport Services Corporation (MASCORP) was incorporated in 1997 to service the ground handling requirements (passenger and cargo services) of military and commercial aircraft. In 2000, Lufthansa Technik Philippines, Inc. (LTP) was formed to do aircraft and engine maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) in NAIA. With its facilities, LTP is a globally competitive company offering aircraft and engine maintenance, repair, and overhaul in the Philippines, with airline clients from almost all parts of the world.

In the medium-term, the Company’s growth and expansion in aviation services is seen to continue as it pursues projects that will complete its offering of aviation products and services. The Company’s continuing rise will be driven by the growth of its client portfolio in all business segments, and by new projects such as cargo terminal and airport fueling operations.
Further growth outside of the Company’s airport businesses may be driven in the long-term by the Company’s interests in third-party logistics and its mining venture. In October 2005, the Company and SembCorp Logistics Ltd. (now Toll Holdings of Australia) ventured together to form Toll-MacroAsia Philippines, Inc. (previously known as Semblog-MacroAsia Philippines Inc.). Today, this young logistics provider has already a national logistics network, and counts as its startup clients some prominent companies in the industrial and consumer goods sector.

Early in 2006, the Company received from the government a Mineral Production Sharing Agreement (MPSA) covering 1,114 hectares as renewal of its rights in a nickel-rich area in Brookes’ Point, Palawan. This is the same area that Infanta Mineral & Industrial Corporation previously held.
