MESSAGE F ROM THE PRESIDENT & CEO G4-1, G4-3

We began 2017 with a challenge to stabilize passenger numbers and begin to lay the foundation for recovery under the framework of high expectations on a national scale due to the change in government. In a year of transition such as this, our strategic focus is on preparing new expansion projects to be undertaken in the short term according to our Master Plan. Part of our job regarding connectivity is centered on recovering flights and frequencies. We managed to reinstate Tame’s direct flights to New York and Lima and to increase non-stop Iberia flights between Madrid and Quito from three to six frequencies per week. Similarly, in December we announced the start of AirEuropa’s operations between Quito and Madrid as of January 2, 2018. The operation of Quito Airport does not just involve connectivity for people for tourism and business purposes, but also the value created from the management of export cargo. For the past few years we have been working to capitalize on the capacities of our cargo infrastructure to be able to respond to the growing volume of flower exports, a star product of Ecuador´s air freight exports. Thanks to an important synergy between all those involved, Quito Airport has seen a positive trend of export growth; 210,223 metric tons were handled in 2017, making us the airport with the third largest

volume of cargo in South America, only behind Bogota and Sao Paulo. It is clear that the growth of this activity is still far from reaching its limit, and we continue to offer operational advantages to freight carriers who have responded positively. At the start of the year, Skylease began to operate in Quito and by July, for the very first time, we welcomed regular operations by Cargolux, one of the main global cargo carriers. To bolster activities, we are working on expanding the airport´s cargo apron to be


able to accommodate up to six Code E and F aircraf at a time, the largest type of aircraft that currently operate here. With regards to service, this year we completed a project that was central to lifting Mariscal Sucre Airport into an extraordinary category. I refer to the expansion and refurbishment of the International VIP Lounges, which after a comprehensive makeover with the help of the prestigious interior designer Adriana Hoyos, have become a benchmark for the industry. Beyond airport operations, Quiport is committed to sharing the value we create with our various stakeholders and society as a whole. An example of this is the support given to Corporación Aeroportuaria de Cuenca (CORPAC), with whom we have signed a cooperation agreement to evaluate the operational conditions at Cuenca Airport in order to establish a road map to achieve more efficient and safer operations.

The work carried out in 2017 has allowed us to meet our strategic goals and confirm our position as a leader on a regional and global scale. For the fourth year in a row, Mariscal Sucre Airport was named South America’s Leading Airport by the World Travel Awards. And for the second year in a row, Skytrax named us as Best Regional Airport in South America and gave us a four-star rating for quality of service, with our staff winning Best Airport Staff in South America. We look forward to 2018 with renewed enthusiasm, but also with the satisfaction of a job well done, overcoming the challenges inherent to this exciting activity. In the following pages we will share with you the details of our work and our optimism for the future.

We also continue our work with communities and the environment. In a great step for the Our Garden Project, which recruits small producers from around the airport to create a market chain for their products, this year we opened the first public store in the airport and we are hopeful that in the medium term this shared value initiative may become independent from Quiport and continue to grow. Regarding environmental achievements, we were awarded Level 2 – Reduction certification as part of the Airport Carbon Accreditation Program, supported by Airports Council International (ACI), the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the World Bank. We will continue to follow the steps until we reach our goal of carbon neutrality.

Since 2006, Corporación Quiport has been responsible for connecting Quito and Ecuador with the world, through safe and efficient management that drives airport life and transforms the surrounding communities. The concession contract signed with the Municipality of Quito allowed Quiport to make the construction, administration, operation and maintenance of the new Mariscal Sucre International Airport a reality. The airport opened its doors in 2013 to position itself as the main gateway to Ecuador for passengers and cargo. Quiport´s comprehensive management of the airport (which will continue until 2041) has led it to be named South America’s Leading Airport for the fourth year in a row by the World Travel Awards.

VISION To be the leader in the airport industry of the country and the region, and at the same time, be an engine of social and economic development for Quito and Ecuador.

For Corporación Quiport, its successful management is based on its people: trained professionals who have made Mariscal Sucre Airport the best airport in the region. In 2017 the company focused on reinforcing the value of excellence in its staff, achieved by each person giving their best in every action and decision, and valuing team work. “Achieving Excellence Together” became the motto of a culture geared towards high performance; reflecting the DNA of an organization that is shown through its solid, ethical and efficient conduct. During this period, 100% of internal communications were aimed at reinforcing this campaign.

In August, the company held its “Yo también soy Quiport” (I am also Quiport) outing for the children of employees, so they could see their parent’s place of work and the importance of their duties at the airport. Approximately 65 children and teenagers from 0 to 18 years of age took part in the visit to share moments of entertainment and learning, with fun spaces, recreational activities, a magic show and a tour of the airport´s facilities. This way, the company brought together the families of its employees in an event aimed at strengthening the bond and pride of its “little ambassadors”.

SAFET Y EFFORTS APE X- AIRPORT INTELLIGENCE IN SAFET Y Quiport is part of the APEX in Safety program, a global ACI initiative, since 2014. During 2017, several activities have been developed to enhance safety. The size of the circles where boarding bridges are stationed has been increased and their parking positions have been improved to avoid them infringing in aircraft safety circles.

CONTINUOUS MONITORING The Continuous Monitoring and Safety Department, in coordination with Quiama, analyzed the new Technical Regulations RDAC 153-154 issued by DGAC, for the preparation and presentation of the new edition of the DGAC Aerodrome Manual, including procedures, plans and technical specifications. This new edition of the Aerodrome Manual was accepted by the Aviation Authority.

Traffic lights were installed at the intersection of the RFFS rapid exit road and the vehicle circulation road.

Having coordinated with the Infrastructure Department and Quiama, several important projects for Corporación Quiport were presented to DGAC, based on the latter’s new technical regulations. The projects were accepted by DGAC in a very short space of time, less than the timeframes given in the regulations, thanks to the aviation authority’s collaboration. This meant that the different works could be performed in the planned time frames, including;

The 2nd edition of the Aerodrome Manual was sent to operators, enabling the search option in the document.

• Expansion of the cargo apron, parking positions for 85 aircraft.

Fauna indicators were developed to measure the effectiveness of the Wildlife Risk Management Plan and Program.

• Redesign of aircraft parking positions for the cargo apron.

Helmets with radios have been given to Rescue and Fire Fighting Service (RFFS) staff to ensure they can communicate by radio in the event of an emergency.

S A F E T Y M A N A G E M E N T S Y S T E M (S M S) (AVSEC) In 2017, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) audited aviation security in Ecuador, selecting Quito Airport for the verification of compliance with Annex 17, an official ICAO document, and the regulations of Ecuador’s Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGAC). It obtained a very satisfactory rate of compliance.

• Change from a traditional lighting system to LED lights at the general aviation, cargo and commercial aprons. • Redesign of parking positions 11 and 14 for Code F aircraft. • Maintenance and reconstruction works on the “Alfa-3” rapid exit taxiway (from flexible pavement to rigid pavement). • Construction of an apron for ramp support equipment. • Start of filling and compaction works for the commercial apron expansion. • Construction of bathrooms in the vehicle parking area for general aviation. • Submission and acceptance of the service bridge project for the eastern side of the runway strip. • Submission of projects for bus washing and oversized cargo.I O N A L 2017 Sustainability Report

Constant Communication with Operators In order to maintain constant and effective communications with the different operators to strengthen safety and efficiency, Quiport and Quiama have implemented a series of measures with relevant information for companies and persons working at Quito Airport.

• Expansion of the cargo platform, allowing a new parking position that can accommodate a B747-400 aircraft. • Construction of three bridges over drainage channels to have two rapid and safe accesses from the eastern circulation road towards the runway and vice versa.

In 2017, 21 Safety Bulletins were issued about topics such as the different stages of works on the A3 rapid exit taxiway, maintenance of the A3 rapid exit, information about refueling, the RFFS traffic light, works on the cargo apron, earth moving and removal of the road guard.

Redesign of the passenger apron to simultaneously accommodate three wide-body aircraft docked at boarding bridges.

Five Safety Circulars were also sent on the Safety Talk for temporary contractors, engine testing in hangars, marking equipment and tools, glare and aircraft maintenance on aprons.

Safety Week

Two editions of the Entre Aviones magazine were published on topics such as the placement of chocks and brakes – apron equipment, and apron taxiway crossings.

• Replacement of the asphalt layer at the A3 rapid exit.

To develop a culture of safety in workers who perform tasks in the restricted area of the airport, our 2017 Safety Week was held from 11 - 13 December. A total of 330 people attended conferences on carbon accreditation, safe ramp driving, self-care, safety liability, ramp safety processes and airside expansion works for 2017 – 2018. Presentations were also given on a range of topics including:

Runway Safety Team (RST) Mariscal Sucre International Airport is the first in the country to have a Runway Safety Team. The RST is a multidisciplinary group made up of representatives from diverse aviation sectors operating at the airport, which aims to identify hazards and manage operational risks. In 2017 five work meetings were held. The RST’s oversight was vital during the process to change the pavement at the A3 rapid exit. Eight hazards were identified which were managed through formal action plans. Aeronautical Studies Projects to be undertaken on the runway, ramp, aprons and taxiways first require an Aeronautical Study to identify hazards and manage risks. This way, aircraft can be safely operated during the performance of the project and after the works are completed when operations and activities resume use of the new infrastructure. In 2017, aeronautical studies were performed for the following projects: • Redesign of the cargo apron to simultaneously accommodate three B747-800 aircraft, which is the largest aircraft that operates at our airport. 82

Airport Operational Capacity

Drills

Based on the studies presented to the aviation authority about the implementation of RVR values (runway visibility, 550m for landings and 350m for takeoffs), the operational capacity of Mariscal Sucre International Airport is 99.7%.

In 2017, 5 simulations (4 tabletop exercises and 1 partial simulation) were held in compliance with the Aerodrome Manual. Tabletop Exercises • Aircraft accident outside the airport.

Passenger Terminal Building In 2017, improvements were made to infrastructure and enhanced procedures were implemented to ensure greater efficiency.

• Volcanic ash fall on the airport – Reventador Volcano. • Earthquake event with infrastructure collapse. • Aircraft accident at the airport.

• Installation of 10 automated boarding gates. • Implementation of digital boarding announcements. • Procedure for Domestic-International transit passengers: immigration counters in the North International Transit Lounge. • Procedure for International-Domestic transit passengers: connecting door between Arrivals and use of baggage carousel 3. • Elimination of customs forms; replaced by random passport screening. • Installation of LED signage at International Arrivals. • Improved signage for bathrooms and drinking fountains.

Partial Drill • Aircraft accident at the airport with the participation of the RFFS, airport medical service and city firefighters.

Response Times of the Rescue and Fire Fighting Service The International Civil Aviation Organization states that to meet the maximum response time, airport fire services must be able to reach the furthest point of the airport in three minutes. An average time of 1 minute 22 seconds was recorded in different exercises and simulations throughout 2017. The longest time recorded was 1 minute 33 seconds, well within the limit.

• Installation transport signage in Domestic and International Arrivals and walkways. • Support of administrative personnel to resolve passenger requirements during the high season: July, August and December.

C AT E G O R Y I I With the support of the aviation authority, specialist technicians and pilots, we carried out a validation of the ILS system on the ground and a flight to test the signal with the DGAC´s laboratory aircraft, which established the reliability of the equipment to operate in CAT II with a 3.2° approach.

Ten of these were led by Presidents and Heads of State who were attending the investiture of Lenín Moreno Garcés as President of the Republic of Ecuador for 2017–2021. Planning by Corporación Quiport and the institutions involved included a special operation plan to handle the 14 official flights that arrived at the airport’s general aviation apron. In addition, it was necessary to plan the logistics for the arrival of delegations who travelled to Quito on commercial flights and their transportation from the passenger apron to the Protocol Lounge. After the investiture ceremony of Lenín Moreno, the delegations left the country and the special operation plan was successfully implemented until May 25 when the President of Bolivia, Evo Morales, was the last guest to leave the country. The successful operation went according to plan thanks to prompt coordination between all the entities and airport staff, upholding the country’s name and once again demonstrating the capacity of Ecuadorians.

LED LIGHTS As part of the efforts done by Quiport and the airport to mitigate the environmental impact of its operations, LED lights have been installed at the passenger terminal building and aircraft apron. These lights significantly reduce the consumption of electricity, also helping to reduce the airport’s carbon footprint.

G A R D E N S A N D PAT H S To improve the user experience at Quito Airport, Quiport implemented an ambitious plan to remodel paths and create gardens in green areas of the airport. New covered paths have been created from and to the terminal, and gardens have been planted with native vegetation, contributing to the aesthetic of the airport and making external areas more enjoyable.

SIGNAGE With a view to optimize the movement of passengers through the various airport processes, signage at the airport was improved in 2017. The recommendations of the Skytrax World Airport Audit were used to create a more efficient system. This audit provides an accurate global benchmark of airport service standards, this accuracy being guaranteed by the Skytrax unified and global approach.

C O R P O R A C I Ó N Q U I P O R T H A N D S O V E R O F F I C E S T O T H E M E T R O P O L I TA N TRAFFIC AGENCY To continue expanding the services offered to airport users and to provide the Metropolitan Traffic Agency with an operation center for airport vehicle control, Quiport officially handed over offices to this Agency at Mariscal Sucre Airport. Now the Agency has a place to coordinate its monitoring activities for the benefit of citizens who use the airport’s access roads.



SERVICES FOR PERSONS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS G4-DMA-b

AIRPORT VISITS

Three thousand young people and children visited Quito Airport to learn about how it is run and to witness the significance of its operations, principally in the development of the sector.

D O N AT I O N O F B U S S T O P S G4-EC7

Three bus stops were built and delivered for the benefit of the community: one in Pifo and two in Oyambarillo. These infrastructure works cost approximately US$66,000.

N U E S T R A H U E R TA : A S PA C E F O R L O C A L PRODUCTION WITHIN THE AIRPORT G4-SO1

The airport city opened its doors to the new Nuestra Huerta store, a community project sponsored by Corporación Quiport that gathers together 16 local producers. Established in November 2017, this space has quickly become one of the main stores in the region and stocks products that are 100% produced by families from areas surrounding the airport. The Nuestra Huerta store is located on the second floor of the Quito Airport Center, opposite the passenger terminal building. ITS BEGINNINGS Thought up as an entrepreneurship project derived from Quiport’s Social Management Plan, with technical support from the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), Nuestra Huerta has evolved towards a shared value scheme, i.e., a strategy that analyzes the social environment in which an organization performs to renew its processes and generate profits, while having a positive impact on communities. The first stage of Nuestra Huerta was focused on providing training programs to residents in the area. Once their potential was developed, the products could then be delivered to employees of airport companies, thus creating a production chain. MILESTONE In 2017, the producers of Nuestra Huerta created the community company “Productora Agrícola Alpachaca Muyuyverde CIA. Ltda.” enabling them to manage the store inside the airport.

As a strategic partner of the country, Quiport performs its operations on the basis of responsibility and respect for the environment. This motivates it to lead initiatives focused on processes and people to help the fight against climate change, strengthen the public´s environmental awareness, protect biodiversity and mitigate the potential negative impact its operations may have. In 2017, these challenges were addressed in the airport’s Environmental Management Plan, together with good practices and policies that were extended to 100% of commercial operators and suppliers at Quiport, in a commitment to empower everyone to work in a sustained manner for nature according to the national and international legal framework. The correct adoption and execution of environmental guidelines during this period allowed us to comply with the concession contract and agreements with financial entities, as well as keep the airport’s environmental license, without any objections from the relevant authority.

As a result, the Company did not receive any fines or penalties in this period for environmental breaches, nor did it receive any complaints. Focus points • Climate Change • Carbon Footprint: emissions and air quality • Energy Efficiency • Impact Mitigation • Environmental Noise • Water Use • Effluent • Waste • Biodiversity • Environmental Awareness


REDUCING THE FOOT PRINT C L I M AT E C H A N G E G4-DMA-a, G4-DMA-b, G4-DMA-c, G4-EN19

Efficient energy and carbon emissions management is key to reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In 2017, Corporación Quiport obtained Level 2 – Reduction certification as part of the Airport Carbon Accreditation Program (ACA); an initiative by the Airports Council International which is recognized by the World Bank, International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). This recognition is thanks to Quito airport’s efforts to reduce its carbon footprint from 5,533 tons of CO² in 2014, to 4,950 tons of CO² in 2016. That is, in two years its footprint was reduced by 10.5%, equivalent to saving 583 tons of CO². This way, Quito airport has become the first 5 - 15 million passenger airport to obtain Level 2-Reduction certification in Latin America and the Caribbean.

I N I T I AT I V E S T O R E D U C E T H E C A R B O N F O O T P R I N T • Installation of 7,700 LED lights, more than 90% of which have automatic regulating sensors. • Equipping takeoff and landing runways with 180 lights. • Establishing timetables for turning on lights to make the most of natural light. • Switching off water cooling equipment for air conditioning between 22:30 and 08:00. • Maintaining the wastewater sludge dehydration plant, a waste incinerator that reduces gas emissions, an air quality policy that favors the use of alternative fuels and a 70-hectare conservation area for flora and fauna.

NOISE I M PA C T M I T I G AT I O N G4-DMA-c

Airport operations create noise that is regularly monitored by Corporaciรณn Quiport in compliance with the limits permitted by current environmental regulations. Noise monitoring is based on measuring the equivalent sound pressure level (Leq) throughout the period and collecting information on the Leq every minute actively and continuously at the sampling sites, using eight sound level meters (seven integrating and one type 2) that comply with international and national measuring regulations. The integrating sound level meters measure sound pressure levels in dB(A) and slow response; the Equivalent Continuous Sound Pressure Level (Leq); day-night level (DNL); maximum sound level (LMax) and minimum sound level (LMin). In 2017, Quiport performed two six-monthly measurements at eight monitoring sites, allowing it to create a strategic noise map.

Corporaciรณn Quiport has a Sustainability Policy and a Program to mitigate and prevent environmental impacts that determine its actions in terms of managing water as a resource. There are also mandatory policies in the contracts the company holds with commercial operators at the airport: Effluent Quality Policy and Good Environmental Practices Guide for the management of water. The airport has an internal sewage system for wastewater which is separate from the rainwater collection system. Throughout these two systems are water-oil separators, grease traps and pre-treatment plants to treat greywater, blackwater and rainwater, before it reaches collection and treatment points. The hydro-sanitary system includes a treatment plant, and rainwater is discharged to a reservoir with sedimentation chambers. These treatment processes enable liquid waste to be disposed of in compliance with project standards.
