1 Panama Canal: Expansion Status and Future Impact 48th Annual Georgia Foreign Trade Conference Sea Island, GA - February 8, 2016 Oscar Bazán Executive Vice-President Planning and Business Development Panama Canal Authority

2 Panama Canal Authority at a Glance Business Description The Panama Canal Authority is the autonomous legal entity in charge of the operation, administration, management, preservation, maintenance, and modernization of the Canal. Leading market position in the container liner segment with a 51% capacity deployed on the Northeast Asia to U.S. East coast route. Stable business with diversified revenue streams: Toll income, electric power sales, potable water sales and other marine services. The Panama Canal is undergoing an Expansion program expected to significantly increase the Canal s capacity and strengthen its world-wide competitive position. Vessel Transits 15,000 10,000 13,660 13,481 13, Vessel Tonnage In millions of PC/UMS 5, Transit Revenues (thousand of U.S. dollars) 2015 Other Revenues (thousand of U.S. dollars) 2015 Total Revenues (thousand of U.S. dollars) $2,440,954 $169,276 $2,610,230 Employees 9,925 2 Source: ACP and public information

3 Understanding the Operations of the Canal With an extension of 80km, the Panama Canal connects the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. The Panama Canal uses systems of locks (compartments) that work as water lifts. 1 Atlantic Locks The ships are raised from the sea level to the level of Gatun Lake. Ships then cross the channel through the continental divide and enter the set of locks that will take them to the sea level again A day in the Canal (Atlantic To Pacific Route) Atlantic locks which raise ships to the Gatun Level form the sea level or vice versa. Ships cross the Canal through the Gatun Lake. Ships arrive to the exit locks to reach the sea level again. Ships exit the Canal. 2 Gatun Lake Pacific Access Channel 4 3 Pacific Locks and Culebra Cut 3 Source: ACP

Raising oversupply will lead to more market consolidation impacting negatively on the deployed capacity and cargo volume. Positive impact from the 2015 U.S. west coast port labor negotiations, resulting in cargo diversion through the Panama Canal E A major part of Panama Canal tolls comes from this segment. World demand for containerized cargo will continue its increasing trend at an average growth of 5%. Containerized cargo volumes for U.S. will keep its positive trend, with a sustained recovery of 3.4%. Delivery of Neo and Postpanamax vessels will continue putting pressure on vessel deployment in favor of the Panama Canal by increasing its average vessel size. 73.0% 24.5% 2.5% 70.0% 25.4% 4.6% Panamax or less Neo Panamax Post Panamax In 2019, 95.4% of the containership fleet will be able to transit the Panama Canal Source: ACP/MEMN/Fairplay World Fleet as of August Source: ACP/MEMN/Clarkson Research Services 23

24 Impact of the Expansion on Container Services Asia to the U.S. New container vessel tariffs for the expanded Canal As much as 10% of container traffic between East Asia and the U.S. could shift from West Coast Ports to East Coast Ports Source: Wide Open, How the Panama Canal Expansion is redrawing the Logistic Map (White Paper), The Boston Consulting Group, 2015.

26 BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES

27 Diversification Strategy Potential areas for development Corozal Container Terminal LNG Terminal New container terminal to serve more than 5MM TEU. Roll-On Roll-Off Terminal Potential for a dedicated terminal for vehicle transshipment in Panama. Capitalizes on global LNG flows by offering LNG bunkering to vessels. Competitive LNG traffic toll system will prop up U.S. to Asia market. Pipelines Opportunities related to the flow of petrochemicals and refined products from one ocean to the other. Logistics Parks Offers a strategic location for distribution and valueadded activities. Vessel Repairs Services Facilities to provide major scheduled ship repairs, routine maintenance or emergency repairs. Bunkering Opportunities to obtain a larger market share in vessel bunkering _1.WOR NY008RBR Top-Off Operations Potential for developing a ship-to-ship topoff operation in Panama. Power Generation Cost-competitive through the use of LNG as alternate fuel source.

28 Panama Logistic Hub of the Americas Reaching its maximum potential from its geographic position The HUB competitiveness will be strengthened with more reliable and efficient services.
