under capacity purchase agreements with other regional carriers of $109 million in 2014 and the minimum annual commitment to purchase Aeroplan® Miles from
Aeroplan of $218 million for 2014. Future commitments for 2015 and beyond are not yet determinable.
Covenants in Credit Card Agreements
Air Canada has various agreements with companies that process customer credit card transactions. Approximately 85% of
Air Canada’s sales are processed using credit cards, with remaining sales processed through cash based transactions.
Air Canada receives payment for a credit card sale generally in advance of when the passenger transportation is provided.
The terms of Air Canada’s principal credit card processing agreements for credit card processing services in North America are
in effect for another four years each, and the agreements contain triggering events upon which the Corporation is required to
provide the credit card processor with cash deposits. The obligation to provide cash deposits and the required amount of
deposits are each based upon a matrix measuring, on a quarterly basis, both a fixed charge coverage ratio for Air Canada and
the unrestricted cash and short-term investments of the Corporation. In 2013, Air Canada made no cash deposits under these
agreements (nil in 2012).
Air Canada also has agreements with another processor for the provision of certain credit card processing services
requirements for markets other than North America and for its cargo operations worldwide where such agreements also
contain deposit obligations.
