116 easyJet plc Annual report and accounts 2014
Notes to the accounts continued
10 Loan notes
In 2001, easyJet, in consortium with six other UK airlines, formed The Airline Group Limited in order to acquire a non-controlling
interest in NATS, the company that owns the UK air traffic control system. easyJet's investment is principally in the form of
unsecured loan notes bearing interest at a fixed rate of 8%. Interest receivable is settled by the issue of additional loan notes.
Redemption is governed by a priority agreement among the consortium members.

Supplemental rent is pledged to lessors to provide collateral should an aircraft be returned in a condition that does not meet

incurred at the end of the lease.

With respect to trade receivables that are neither impaired nor past due, there are no indications at the reporting date that the
payment obligations will not be met. Amounts due from trade receivables are short-term in nature and largely comprise credit
card receivables due from financial institutions with credit ratings of at least A and, accordingly, the possibility of significant
default is considered to be unlikely.
