BUSINESS AMR Corporation (AMR or the Company) was incorporated in October 1982. AMR's principal subsidiary, American Airlines, Inc. (American), was founded in 1934. For financial reporting purposes, AMR's operations fall within three major lines of business: the Air Transportation Group (ATG), The SABRE Group and the AMR Management Services Group. AIR TRANSPORTATION GROUP ATG consists primarily of American's Passenger and Cargo divisions and AMR Eagle, Inc., a subsidiary of AMR. AMERICAN'S PASSENGER DIVISION is one of the largest scheduled passenger airlines in the world. At the end of 1994, American provided scheduled jet service to more than 170 destinations, primarily throughout North America, the Caribbean, Latin America, Europe and the Pacific. AMERICAN'S CARGO DIVISION is one of the largest scheduled air freight carriers in the world. The Cargo Division provides a full range of freight and mail services to shippers throughout the airline's system. In addition, through cooperative agreements with other carriers, it has the ability to transport shipments to virtually any country in the world. AMR EAGLE, INC. owns the four regional airlines which operate as "American Eagle" -- Flagship Airlines, Inc., Simmons Airlines, Inc., Executive Airlines, Inc., and Wings West Airlines, Inc. The American Eagle carriers provide connecting turboprop service from seven of American's high-traffic cities to smaller markets throughout the United States, the Bahamas and the Caribbean. THE SABRE GROUP AMR formed The SABRE Group in 1993 to capitalize on the synergies of combining its information technology businesses under common management. The SABRE Group includes SABRE Travel Information Network (STIN), SABRE Computer Services (SCS), SABRE Decision Technologies (SDT), and SABRE Interactive. STIN markets SABRE -- one of the largest privately owned, real-time computer systems in the world -- and provides travel distribution and information services to more than 28,000 travel agencies in 74 countries on six continents. SCS manages and maintains AMR's technology infrastructure. SCS provides planning, installation and operation of data centers, voice and data communications networks and hardware, as well as technology and architectural planning to other AMR units and external customers. SDT provides decision support systems, application software packages, systems development and consulting services to other AMR units and to external companies in the transportation, travel and other industries worldwide. SABRE INTERACTIVE is a unit recently formed to investigate opportunities for consumer distribution via personal computer, CD-ROM, interactive television, cable and other media. 1 3 AMR MANAGEMENT SERVICES GROUP The AMR Management Services Group consists of six AMR subsidiaries -- AMR Services Corporation, AMR Leasing Corporation, Americas Ground Services, Inc. (AGS), AMR Investment Services, Inc., AMR Training & Consulting Group, Inc. (AMRTCG), and Airline Management Services, Inc. (AMS). AMR SERVICES CORPORATION has several major operating divisions: Domestic and International Airline Services, AMR Combs and AMR Distribution Systems. The Airline Services divisions' main lines of business include airline ground and cargo handling, cabin service and an array of other air transportation-related services for carriers around the world. AMR Combs provides corporate aviation services through a network of 12 fixed-base operations in the United States and Mexico. It also is involved in a number of other related businesses, including parts and aircraft sales and operation of the world's largest executive charter service. AMR Distribution Systems serves the logistics marketplace and specializes in contract warehousing, trucking and multi-modal freight forwarding services. Beginning January 1, 1995, two AMR units -- TeleService Resources (TSR) and Data Management Services (DMS) -- which have been included in The SABRE Group for financial reporting purposes in 1993 and 1994, became part of AMR Services. TSR markets and operates a hotel reservations system and provides telemarketing and call management services. DMS provides data and document management services to American and to companies in the insurance, financial services and transportation industries. AMR LEASING CORPORATION, a financing subsidiary, leases regional aircraft to subsidiaries of AMR Eagle. AGS provides airline ground and cabin service handling at 11 locations in eight countries in the Caribbean and Central and South America. AGS was incorporated in 1993. AMR INVESTMENT SERVICES, INC. serves as an investment advisor to AMR and other institutional investors. It also manages the American AAdvantage Funds, which have both institutional shareholders, including pension funds and bank and trust companies, and individual shareholders. As of December 31, 1994, AMR Investment Services was responsible for management of approximately $11.2 billion in assets, including direct management of approximately $4.4 billion in short-term investments. AMRTCG provides specialized training, management and consulting services to companies in the aviation and transportation industries worldwide. AMRTCG was formed in 1992. AMS was formed in 1994 to manage the Company's service contracts with other airlines such as the agreement to provide a variety of management, technical and administrative services to Canadian Airlines International, Ltd. that the Company signed in April 1994. In March 1995, AMR announced the results of a six-month study of the Air Transportation Group's administrative functions. The Company identified $93 million in annual cost savings and began implementing organizational changes which are expected to yield additional cost reductions. Such organizational changes will not materially impact the Company's business segment financial reporting. Additional information regarding business segments is included in Management's Discussion and Analysis on pages 15 through 26 and in Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements. 2 4 ROUTES AND COMPETITION AIR TRANSPORTATION Service over almost all of the Air Transportation Group's routes is highly competitive. Currently, any carrier deemed fit by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) is free to operate scheduled passenger service between any two points within the U.S. and its possessions. On most of its routes, ATG competes with at least one, and usually more than one, major domestic airline including: America West Airlines, Continental Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Northwest Airlines, Southwest Airlines, Trans World Airlines, United Airlines, and USAir. ATG also competes with national, regional, all-cargo, and charter carriers and, particularly on shorter segments, ground transportation. Most major air carriers have developed hub-and-spoke systems and schedule patterns in an effort to maximize the revenue potential of their service. American operates six hubs: Dallas/Fort Worth, Chicago O'Hare, Miami, Nashville, Raleigh/Durham and San Juan, Puerto Rico. In January 1995, American announced schedule reductions for 1995 which will end the airline's hub operations at Raleigh/Durham. Delta Air Lines and United Airlines have large hub operations at American's Dallas/Fort Worth and Chicago O'Hare hubs, respectively. The American Eagle carriers increase the number of markets the Air Transportation Group serves by providing connections to American at its hubs and certain other major airports. The American Eagle carriers -- Simmons Airlines, Inc., Flagship Airlines, Inc., Wings West Airlines, Inc. and Executive Airlines, Inc. -- serve smaller markets through Dallas/Fort Worth, Chicago, Miami, Nashville, San Juan, Los Angeles and New York John F. Kennedy International Airport. American's competitors also own or have marketing agreements with regional carriers which provide service at their major hubs. In addition to its extensive domestic service, American provides service to and from cities in various other countries, primarily across North, Central and South America and Europe. In 1991, American added service to 20 cities in 15 countries in Latin America with the acquisition of route authorities from Eastern Air Lines. In 1992, American added service from several U.S. gateway cities to London's Heathrow Airport with the acquisition of Trans World Airlines' route authorities. American's operating revenues from foreign operations were approximately $4.3 billion in 1994, $3.9 billion in 1993 and $3.7 billion in 1992. Additional information about the Company's foreign operations is included in Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements. Competition in international markets is generally subject to more extensive government regulation than domestic markets. In these markets, American competes with foreign-investor owned carriers, national flag carriers and U.S. carriers that have been granted authority to provide scheduled passenger and cargo service between the U.S. and various overseas locations. American's operating authority in these markets is subject to aviation agreements between the U.S. and the respective countries, and in some cases, fares and schedules require the approval of the DOT and the relevant foreign governments. Because international air transportation is governed by bilateral or other agreements between the U.S. and the foreign country or countries involved, changes in U.S. or foreign government aviation policy could result in the alteration or termination of such agreements, diminish the value of such route authorities, or otherwise affect American's international operations. Bilateral relations between the U.S. and various foreign countries served by American are currently being renegotiated. On all of its routes, the Air Transportation Group's pricing decisions are affected by competition from other airlines, some of which have cost structures significantly lower than American's and can therefore operate profitably at lower fare levels. American and its principal competitors use inventory and yield management systems that permit them to vary the number of discount seats offered on each flight in an effort to maximize revenues. The Air Transportation Group believes that it has several advantages relative to its competition. Its fleet is young, efficient and quiet. It has a comprehensive domestic and international route structure, anchored by efficient hubs, which permit it to take full advantage of whatever traffic growth occurs. The Company believes American's AAdvantage frequent flyer program, which is the largest program in the industry, and its superior service also give it a competitive advantage. 3 5 The major domestic carriers have some advantage over foreign competitors in their ability to generate traffic from their extensive domestic route systems. In many cases, however, U.S. carriers are limited in their rights to carry passengers beyond designated gateway cities in foreign countries. Some of American's foreign competitors are owned and subsidized by foreign governments. To improve their access to each others' markets, various U.S. and foreign carriers -- including American -- have made substantial equity investments in, or established marketing relationships with, other carriers. COMPUTER RESERVATION SYSTEMS The complexity of the various schedules and fares offered by air carriers has fostered the development of electronic distribution systems. Travel agents and other subscribers access travel information and book airline, hotel and car rental reservations and issue airline tickets using these systems. American developed the SABRE computer reservation system (CRS), which is one of the largest CRSs in the world. Competition among the CRS vendors is strong. Services similar to those offered through SABRE are offered by several air carriers and other companies in the United States and abroad. The SABRE CRS has several advantages relative to its competition. SABRE ranks first in market share among travel agents in the U.S. The SABRE CRS is furthering its expansion into international markets and continues to be in the forefront of technological innovation in the CRS industry. REGULATION GENERAL The Airline Deregulation Act of 1978 (Act) and various other statutes amending the Act, eliminated most domestic economic regulation of passenger and freight transportation. However, the DOT and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) still exercise certain regulatory authority over air carriers under the Federal Aviation Act of 1958, as amended. The DOT maintains jurisdiction over international route authorities and certain consumer protection matters, such as advertising, denied boarding compensation, baggage liability, and computer reservations systems. The DOT issued certain rules governing the CRS industry which became effective on December 7, 1992, and expire on December 31, 1997. The FAA regulates flying operations generally, including establishing personnel, aircraft and security standards. In addition, the FAA has implemented a number of requirements that the Air Transportation Group is incorporating into its maintenance program. These matters relate to, among other things, inspection and maintenance of aging aircraft, corrosion control, collision avoidance and windshear detection. Based on its current implementation schedule, the Air Transportation Group expects to be in compliance with the applicable requirements within the required time periods. The U.S. Department of Justice has jurisdiction over airline antitrust matters. The U.S. Postal Service has jurisdiction over certain aspects of the transportation of mail and related services. Labor relations in the air transportation industry are regulated under the Railway Labor Act, which vests in the National Mediation Board certain regulatory powers with respect to disputes between airlines and labor unions arising under collective bargaining agreements. FARES Airlines are permitted to establish their own domestic fares without governmental regulation, and the industry is characterized by substantial price competition. The DOT maintains authority over international fares, rates and charges. International fares and rates are also subject to the jurisdiction of the governments of the foreign countries which American serves. While air carriers are required to file and adhere to international fare and rate tariffs, many international markets are characterized by substantial commissions, overrides, and discounts to travel agents, brokers and wholesalers. Fare discounting by competitors has historically had a negative effect on ATG's financial results because ATG is generally required to match competitors' fares to maintain passenger traffic. During recent years, a number of new low-cost airlines have entered the domestic market and several major airlines have begun to implement efforts to lower their cost structures. Further fare reductions, domestic and international, may occur in the future. If fare reductions are not offset by increases in passenger traffic or changes in the mix of traffic that improves yields, ATG's operating results will be negatively impacted. 4 6 AIRPORT ACCESS In 1968, the FAA issued a rule designating New York John F. Kennedy, New York LaGuardia, Washington National, Chicago O'Hare and Newark airports as high density traffic airports. Newark was subsequently removed from the high density airport classification. The rule adopted hourly take-off and landing slot allocations for each of these airports. In 1993, the FAA granted a permanent rule change allowing each commuter operator at O'Hare to use 50 percent of its slots for jets having not more than 110 seats. Currently, the FAA permits the purchasing, selling, leasing and trading of these slots by airlines and others, subject to certain restrictions. Certain foreign airports, including London Heathrow, a major European destination for American, also have slot allocations. The Air Transportation Group currently has sufficient slot authorizations to operate its existing flights and has generally been able to obtain slots to expand its operations and change its schedules. There is no assurance, however, that the Air Transportation Group will be able to obtain slots for these purposes in the future, because, among other factors, slot allocations are subject to changes in government policies. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS The Company is subject to various laws and government regulations concerning environmental matters and employee safety and health in the U.S. and other countries. U.S. federal laws that have a particular impact on the Company include the Airport Noise and Capacity Act of 1990 (ANCA), the Clean Air Act, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, the Clean Water Act, the Safe Drinking Water Act, and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA or the Superfund Act). The Company is also subject to the oversight of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) concerning employee safety and health matters. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), OSHA, and other federal agencies have been authorized to promulgate regulations that have an impact on the Company's operations. In addition to these federal activities, various states have been delegated certain authorities under the aforementioned federal statutes. Many state and local governments have adopted environmental and employee safety and health laws and regulations, some of which are similar to federal requirements. As a part of its continuing safety, health and environmental program, the Company has maintained compliance with such requirements without any material adverse effect on its business. For purposes of noise standards, jet aircraft are rated by categories or "stages." The ANCA requires the phase-out by December 31, 1999, of Stage II aircraft operations, subject to certain exceptions. Under final regulations issued by the FAA in 1991, air carriers are required to reduce, by modification or retirement, the number of Stage II aircraft in their fleets 25 percent by December 31, 1994; 50 percent by December 31, 1996; 75 percent by December 31, 1998, and 100 percent by December 31, 1999. Alternatively, a carrier may satisfy the regulations by operating a fleet that is at least 55 percent, 65 percent, 75 percent, and 100 percent Stage III by the dates set forth in the preceding sentence, respectively. At December 31, 1994, approximately 86 percent of American's active fleet was Stage III, the quietest and most fuel efficient rating category. The ANCA recognizes the rights of airport operators with noise problems to implement local noise abatement programs so long as they do not interfere unreasonably with interstate or foreign commerce or the national air transportation system. Authorities in several cities have promulgated aircraft noise reduction programs, including the imposition of night-time curfews. The ANCA generally requires FAA approval of local noise restrictions on Stage III aircraft first effective after October 1990, and establishes a regulatory notice and review process for local restrictions on Stage II aircraft first proposed after October 1990. While American has had sufficient scheduling flexibility to accommodate local noise restrictions imposed to date, American's operations could be adversely affected if locally-imposed regulations become more restrictive or widespread. American has been identified by the EPA as a potentially responsible party (PRP) with respect to the following Superfund Sites: Operating Industries, Inc., California; Cannons, New Hampshire; Byron Barrel and Drum, New York; Palmer PSC, Massachusetts; Frontier Chemical, New York and Duffy Brothers, Massachusetts. American has settled the Palmer PSC and Byron Barrel and Drum matters, and all that remains to complete these matters are administrative tasks. American has signed a partial consent decree with respect to Operating Industries, Inc. With respect to the Operating Industries, Inc., Palmer PSC, Frontier Chemical and Duffy Brothers sites, American is one of several PRPs named at each site. American's alleged waste disposal although they are Superfund sites is minor compared to the other PRPs. American, along with most other tenants at Boston Logan International Airport, has been notified under the Massachusetts State Superfund statute of a claim for contribution by the Massachusetts Port Authority 5 7 (Massport). Massport has claimed that American is responsible for past and future remediation costs at the airport. American is vigorously defending against Massport's claim. American, along with most other tenants at the San Francisco International Airport, has been ordered by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board to engage in various studies of potential environmental contamination at the airport and to undertake remedial measures, if necessary. AMR Combs Memphis, an AMR Services subsidiary, has been named a PRP at an EPA Superfund Site in West Memphis, Arkansas. AMR Combs Memphis' alleged involvement in the site is minor relative to the other PRPs. Flagship Airlines, Inc., an AMR Eagle subsidiary, has been notified of its potential liability under New York law at an inactive hazardous waste site in Poughkeepsie, New York. AMR does not expect these matters, individually or collectively, to have a material impact on its financial condition, operating results or cash flows. LABOR The airline business is labor intensive. Approximately 82 percent of AMR's employees work in the Air Transportation Group. Wages, salaries and benefits represented nearly 37 percent of AMR's consolidated operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 1994. To improve its competitive position, American has undertaken various steps to reduce its unit labor costs, including workforce reductions. The majority of American's employees are represented by labor unions and covered by collective bargaining agreements. American's relations with such labor organizations are governed by the Railway Labor Act. Under this act, the collective bargaining agreements among American and these organizations do not expire but instead become amendable as of a stated date. If either party wishes to modify the terms of any such agreement, it must notify the other party before the contract becomes amendable. After receipt of such notice, the parties must meet for direct negotiations, and if no agreement is reached, either party may request the National Mediation Board (NMB) to appoint a federal mediator. If no agreement is reached in mediation, the NMB may determine, at any time, that an impasse exists, and if an impasse is declared, the NMB proffers binding arbitration to the parties. Either party may decline to submit to arbitration. If arbitration is rejected, a 30-day "cooling-off" period commences, following which the labor organization may strike and the airline may resort to "self-help," including the imposition of its proposed amendments and the hiring of replacement workers. American's collective bargaining agreement with the Association of Professional Flight Attendants became amendable on December 31, 1992. The NMB declared an impasse in the negotiations in September 1993, following a long period of negotiation and mediation, and the parties entered into a 30-day cooling off period, which ended without an agreement. At the end of the cooling off period, American imposed certain contract amendments as permitted by law. After the union staged a five-day strike against American in November 1993, the parties agreed to resolve the remaining issues through binding arbitration. The arbitration process is complex and will likely not be decided for several months. While the ultimate outcome is uncertain, the new contract will likely result in higher unit labor costs in 1995 than in 1994. American's collective bargaining agreement with the Allied Pilots Association became amendable on August 31, 1994. American's collective bargaining agreement with the Transport Workers Union became amendable March 1, 1995. A majority of the workforces at the four AMR Eagle carriers is represented by labor unions and covered by a number of different collective bargaining agreements. Certain of these agreements are currently in negotiation. In addition, a proceeding is pending before the NMB in which the issue is whether the four American Eagle carriers should be treated as a single carrier for labor relations purposes. If such a finding ultimately is made, each unionized employee classification would have all members of all four carriers represented for collective bargaining purposes as a single unit. A determination by the NMB is not likely before mid-1995. The ultimate outcome of this proceeding and its effect on costs is uncertain. 6 8 FUEL The Air Transportation Group's operations are significantly affected by the availability and price of jet fuel. American's fuel costs and consumption for the years 1990 through 1994 were:
Percent of Gallons Average Price AMR's Consumed Total Cost Per Gallon Operating Year (in millions) (in millions) (in cents) Expenses ---- ------------- ------------ ------------- ---------- 1990 2,397 $ 1,899 79.2 16.4 1991 2,527 1,780 70.5 13.8 1992 2,862 1,862 65.1 12.9 1993 2,939 1,818 61.8 12.0 1994 2,741 1,556 56.7 10.3
Based upon American's 1994 fuel consumption, a one-cent rise in the average annual price-per-gallon of jet fuel would increase American's monthly fuel costs by approximately $2.3 million, not considering the offsetting effect of American's fuel cost hedging program. AMR's fuel cost in 1994 decreased 13.9 percent over the prior year, primarily due to an 8.3 percent decrease in American's average price per gallon and a 6.7 percent decrease in gallons consumed by American. The impact of fuel price changes on the Company's competitors is dependent upon various factors, including their hedging strategies. However, lower fuel prices may be offset by increased price competition and lower revenues for all air carriers. Conversely, there can be no assurance that American will be able to pass fuel cost increases on to its customers by increasing fares in the future. Most of American's fuel is purchased pursuant to contracts which, by their terms, may be terminated upon short notice. While American does not anticipate a significant reduction in fuel availability, dependency on foreign imports of crude oil and the possibility of changes in government policy on jet fuel production, transportation and marketing make it impossible to predict the future availability of jet fuel. If there were major reductions in the availability of jet fuel, American's business would be adversely affected. FREQUENT FLYER PROGRAM American established the AAdvantage frequent flyer program (AAdvantage) to develop passenger loyalty by offering awards to travelers for their continued patronage. AAdvantage members earn mileage credits for flights on American, American Eagle and certain other participating airlines, or by utilizing services of other program participants, including hotels, car rental companies and bank credit card issuers. American sells mileage credits to the other companies participating in the program. American reserves the right to change the AAdvantage program rules, regulations, travel awards and special offers at any time. American may initiate changes impacting, for example, participant affiliations, rules for earning mileage credit, mileage levels and awards, blackout dates and limited seating for travel awards, and the features of special offers. American reserves the right to end the AAdvantage program with six months notice. Mileage credits can be redeemed for free, discounted or upgraded travel on American, American Eagle or participating airlines, or for other travel industry awards. Once a member accrues sufficient mileage for an award, the member may request an award certificate from American. Award certificates may be redeemed up to one year after issuance. Most travel awards are subject to blackout dates and capacity controlled seating. All miles earned after July 1989 must be redeemed within three years or they expire. American accounts for its frequent flyer obligation on an accrual basis using the incremental cost method. American's frequent flyer liability is accrued each time a member accumulates sufficient mileage in his or her account to claim the lowest level of free travel award (20,000 miles prior to February 1, 1995; 25,000 miles thereafter) and such award is expected to be used for free travel on American. American includes fuel, food, and reservations/ticketing costs, but not a contribution to overhead or profit, in the calculation of incremental cost. The cost for fuel is estimated based on total fuel consumption tracked by various categories of markets, with an 7 9 amount allocated to each passenger. Food costs are tracked by market category, with an amount allocated to each passenger. Reservation/ticketing costs are based on the total number of passengers, including those traveling on free awards, divided into American's total expense for these costs. No accrual is made for non-travel awards since the cost to American, if any, is de minimis. At December 31, 1994 and 1993, American estimated that approximately 4.5 million and 5.4 million free travel awards, respectively, were eligible for redemption. At December 31, 1994 and 1993, American estimated that approximately 3.6 million and 4.4 million free travel awards, respectively, were expected to be redeemed for free travel on American. In making this estimate, American has excluded mileage in inactive accounts, mileage related to accounts that have not yet reached the lowest level of free travel award, mileage that is not expected to ever be redeemed for free travel, and mileage related to accounts that have reached the lowest level of free travel award but are estimated based on historical data to be redeemed for discounts and upgrades, free travel on participating airlines other than American, or services other than free travel, for which American has no obligation to pay the provider of those services. The liability for the program mileage that has reached the lowest level of free travel award and is expected to be redeemed for free travel on American and deferred revenues for mileage sold to others participating in the program was $329 million and $380 million, representing 6.7 percent and 8.6 percent of AMR's total current liabilities, at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The number of free travel awards used for travel on American during the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, was approximately 2,198,000, 2,163,000, and 1,474,000, respectively, representing 8.5 percent, 9.5 percent and 6.0 percent of total revenue passenger miles for each period, respectively. American believes displacement of revenue passengers is insignificant given American's load factors, its ability to manage frequent flyer seat inventory, and the relatively low ratio of free award usage to revenue passenger miles. OTHER MATTERS SEASONALITY AND OTHER FACTORS The Air Transportation Group's results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of those for the entire year, since the air transportation business is subject to seasonal fluctuations. Higher demand for air travel has traditionally resulted in more favorable operating results for the second and third quarters of the year than for the first and fourth quarters. The results of operations in the air transportation business have also significantly fluctuated in the past in response to general economic conditions. In addition, fare initiatives, fluctuations in fuel prices, labor strikes and other factors could impact this seasonal pattern. Unaudited quarterly financial data for the two-year period ended December 31, 1994, is included in Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements. No material part of the business of AMR and its subsidiaries is dependent upon a single customer or very few customers. Consequently, the loss of the Company's largest few customers would not have a materially adverse effect upon AMR. INSURANCE American carries insurance for public liability, passenger liability, property damage and all-risk coverage for damage to its aircraft, in amounts which, in the opinion of management, are adequate. OTHER GOVERNMENT MATTERS In time of war or during an unlimited national emergency or civil defense emergency, American and other major air carriers may be required to provide airlift services to the Military Airlift Command under the Civil Reserve Air Fleet program. 8 10 ITEM 2.

The table excludes leases for 15 Boeing 767-300 Extended Range aircraft which can be canceled with 30 days' notice during the first 10 years of the lease term. At the end of that term in 1998, the leases can be renewed for periods ranging from 10 to 12 years. The table also excludes leases for 16 Saab 340A aircraft and 10 Saab 340B aircraft which can be canceled with 90 days' notice within certain restrictions. In addition, the leases for 8 ATR aircraft included in the table will become cancelable in future years. Substantially all of the Air Transportation Group's aircraft leases include an option to purchase the aircraft or to extend the lease term, or both, with the purchase price or renewal rental to be based essentially on the market value of the aircraft at the end of the term of the lease or at a predetermined fixed rate. GROUND PROPERTIES American leases, or has built as leasehold improvements on leased property, most of its airport and terminal facilities; certain corporate office, maintenance and training facilities in Fort Worth, Texas; its principal overhaul and maintenance base and computer facility at Tulsa International Airport, Tulsa, Oklahoma; its regional reservation offices; and local ticket and administration offices throughout the system. American has entered into agreements with the Tulsa Municipal Airport Trust; the Alliance Airport Authority, Fort Worth, Texas; and the Dallas/Fort Worth, Chicago O'Hare, Raleigh/Durham, Nashville, San Juan, New York, and Los Angeles airport authorities to provide funds for constructing, improving and modifying facilities and acquiring equipment which are or will be leased to American. American also utilizes public airports for its flight operations under lease arrangements with the municipalities or governmental agencies owning or controlling them and leases certain other ground equipment for use at its facilities. For information concerning the estimated lives and residual values for owned ground properties, lease terms and amortization relating to ground properties under capital leases, and acquisitions of ground properties, see Notes 1, 3 and 4 to the consolidated financial statements. 10 12 ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS American has been sued in two class action cases that have been consolidated in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, in connection with certain changes made to American's AAdvantage frequent flyer program in May, 1988. (Wolens, et al v. American Airlines, Inc., No. 88 CH 7554, and Tucker v. American Airlines, Inc., No. 89 CH 199.) In both cases, the plaintiffs seek to represent all persons who joined the AAdvantage program before May 1988. The complaints allege that, on that date, American implemented changes that limited the number of seats available to participants traveling on certain awards and established holiday blackout dates during which no AAdvantage seats would be available for certain awards. The plaintiffs allege that these changes breached American's contracts with AAdvantage members and were in violation of the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practice Act (Consumer Fraud Act). Plaintiffs seek money damages of an unspecified sum, punitive damages, costs, attorneys fees and an injunction preventing the Company from making any future changes that would reduce the value of AAdvantage benefits. American moved to dismiss both complaints, asserting that the claims are preempted by the Federal Aviation Act and barred by the Commerce Clause of the U.S. Constitution. The trial court denied American's preemption motions, but certified its decision for interlocutory appeal. In December 1990, the Illinois Appellate Court held that plaintiffs' claims for an injunction are preempted by the Federal Aviation Act, but that plaintiffs' claims for money damages could proceed. On March 12, 1992, the Illinois Supreme Court affirmed the decision of the Appellate Court. American sought a writ of certiorari from the U.S. Supreme Court; and on October 5, 1992, that Court vacated the decision of the Illinois Supreme Court and remanded the cases for reconsideration in light of the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Morales v. TWA, et al, which interpreted the preemption provisions of the Federal Aviation Act very broadly. On December 16, 1993, the Illinois Supreme Court rendered its decision on remand, holding that plaintiffs' claims seeking an injunction were preempted, but that identical claims for compensatory and punitive damages were not preempted. On February 8, 1994, American filed petition for a writ of certiorari in the U.S. Supreme Court. The Illinois Supreme Court granted American's motion to stay the state court proceeding pending disposition of American's petition in the U.S. Supreme Court. The matter was argued before the U.S. Supreme Court on November 1, 1994, and on January 18, 1995, the U.S. Supreme Court issued its opinion ending a portion of the suit against American. The U.S. Supreme Court held that a) plaintiffs' claim for violation of the Illinois Consumer Fraud Act was preempted by federal law -- entirely ending that part of the case and eliminating plaintiffs' claim for punitive damages; and b) certain breach of contract claims would not be preempted by federal law. The Court did not determine, however, whether the contract claims asserted by the plaintiffs in Wolens were preempted, and therefore remanded the case to the state court for further proceedings. In the event that the plaintiffs' breach of contract claim is eventually permitted to proceed in the state court, American intends to vigorously defend the case. 11 13 ITEM 4.

No dividends were declared on common shares during any of the periods above. Effective January 1, 1992, AMR adopted Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106, "Employer's Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions," and No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Information on the comparability of results is included in Management's Discussion and Analysis and the notes to the consolidated financial statements. 14 16 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS SUMMARY AMR's net income in 1994 was $228 million ($2.26 per common share, primary and fully diluted, after preferred dividends but before an adjustment to additional paid-in capital for an exchange of debentures for preferred stock). During the fourth quarter of 1994, AMR recorded a charge of $278 million ($174 million after tax) related to the cost of future pension and other postretirement benefits for agent and management/support staff voluntary early retirement programs, severance and other restructuring activities. Before the special charge, net earnings were $402 million. In addition to the restructuring charge, the Company's fourth quarter earnings include a charge of $25 million ($16 million after tax) related to the loss of two regional aircraft operated by subsidiaries of AMR Eagle. The Company's fourth quarter results were also adversely affected by the disruption of American Eagle operations at the Chicago and Raleigh/Durham hubs. AMR's net loss in 1993 was $110 million ($2.23 per common share, primary and fully diluted). The 1993 results reflect the negative impact of a five-day strike in November by the union representing American's flight attendants. The results for 1993 also include a $125 million charge ($79 million after tax) for the retirement of certain DC-10 aircraft, a positive $115 million adjustment to revenues ($67 million net of related commission expense and taxes) for a change in estimate related to certain earned passenger revenues, and a $71 million provision ($46 million after tax) for losses associated with a reservations system project and resolution of related litigation. The Company's 1994 operating income was $1.0 billion compared with $690 million in 1993. In light of the changing competitive environment toward lower costs and lower fares, in 1993 the Company began implementing a new strategic framework, known as the Transition Plan. The Plan has three parts, each intended to improve the Company's results. First, make the core airline business bigger and stronger where economically justified. Second, and conversely, shrink the airline where it cannot compete profitably. Third, reallocate resources and effort to AMR's growing information and management services businesses which are more profitable than the airline. The Company's improved results reflect progress on each of these three tenets, as well as strong economies in most of the markets it serves, stringent cost controls and relatively low fuel prices. In the low fare environment that has existed in recent years, the Company's efforts to increase unit revenues have focused on garnering a larger share of premium fare traffic. American has added flights at its major hubs; increased service between major business markets such as Dallas/Fort Worth, Chicago and New York; added more first class seating on narrowbody aircraft; expanded its successful transcontinental three-class service; and continued to increase international service. During the same period, American has continued to downsize, primarily in domestic markets. Ninety-one older, less efficient jet aircraft have been removed from service since the Transition Plan was introduced in 1993. American Eagle has expanded its regional service as American has reduced short-haul jet service. American has trimmed service to about 30 cities and on over 100 routes. American and American Eagle closed their San Jose, California, hub operations in 1993. American Eagle service at Raleigh/Durham was eliminated at the end of 1994, and American announced an end to its hub operation there by the summer of 1995. From the end of 1993 to the end of 1994, the Air Transportation Group's average equivalent workforce declined by 3,800. In 1995, the Company plans further workforce reductions as it restructures airport and reservations agent activities and continues to reduce management and administrative staffing. Meanwhile, the Company's non-airline businesses continued their strong performances. Domestic fare activity and international expansion generated increased booking fees for The SABRE Group. In total, The SABRE Group's revenues were up 13 percent from 1993 and its operating margin was nearly 24 percent. 15 17 BUSINESS SEGMENTS The following sections provide a discussion of AMR's results by reporting segment. A description of the businesses in each reporting segment is included on pages 1 and 2. Additional segment information is included in Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements.

16 18 REVENUES 1994 COMPARED TO 1993 Air Transportation Group revenues of $14.9 billion in 1994 were up $110 million, 0.7 percent, versus 1993. American's passenger revenues decreased 0.6 percent, $74 million. The decline in passenger revenues resulted primarily from a 2.3 percent decrease in passenger yield (the average amount one passenger pays to fly one mile) from 13.28 to 12.97 cents, partially offset by a 1.8 percent increase in passenger traffic. Yields were driven lower by competitive fare discounting and the greater presence of low-fare competitors in certain domestic markets. In addition, from 1993 to 1994, American's average stage length increased approximately 6.4 percent, contributing to the decline in passenger yields since fares on longer trips tend to be lower than shorter trips on a per mile basis. For the year, domestic yield decreased 4.0 percent, while yield increased 2.6 percent in Latin America and 4.5 percent in Europe. In 1994, American derived 71.5 percent of its passenger revenues from domestic operations and 28.5 percent from international operations. American's domestic traffic increased 0.4 percent, to 70.0 billion revenue passenger miles (RPMs), while domestic capacity decreased 6.0 percent. International traffic grew 5.2 percent, to 28.9 billion RPMs on a capacity reduction of 2.7 percent. The increase in international traffic was led by a 9.7 percent increase in Latin America on capacity growth of 1.1 percent, and a 1.6 percent increase in Europe on a capacity reduction of 6.9 percent. Traffic suffered in 1993 from American's inability to carry passengers during the flight attendants' strike in November 1993 and the adverse effect of the strike on passenger demand in the following month. Traffic in 1994 reflects the negative impact of the FAA's ban on flying ATR aircraft in known or forecasted icing conditions which was in effect from December 9, 1994 through January 11, 1995. The restrictions resulted in the temporary suspension of American Eagle ATR service at Chicago and the Company's decision to end American Eagle service at Raleigh/Durham. Despite the effect of the ATR restrictions, the AMR Eagle carriers' passenger revenues increased 11.1 percent, $79 million. Traffic on the AMR Eagle carriers increased 17.0 percent, to 2.5 billion RPMs, while capacity grew 14.6 percent. Passenger yield decreased 5.0 percent, in part due to the carriers' increased stage length as they entered longer haul markets. Cargo revenues increased 2.2 percent, $14 million, driven by an 8.6 percent increase in American's domestic and international cargo volumes, partially offset by decreasing yields brought about by strong price competition resulting from excess industry capacity. Other revenues, consisting of fees for excess baggage and other passenger services, tour marketing, contract maintenance and miscellaneous other revenues, increased 17.1 percent, $91 million, primarily as a result of increased passenger traffic, additional contract maintenance work and leasing of excess aircraft. 1993 COMPARED TO 1992 Air Transportation Group revenues of $14.8 billion in 1993 were up $1.3 billion, 9.7 percent, versus 1992. American's passenger revenues rose 8.4 percent, $1.0 billion, primarily as a result of an 8.8 percent increase in passenger yield, offset by a 0.3 percent decline in passenger traffic. American's passenger yield in 1993 increased to 13.28 cents, primarily as a result of a very weak comparison base of 1992, when revenues were negatively impacted by competitors' drastic discounting of domestic fares. For the year, domestic yield increased 13.5 percent. International yield was mixed, increasing 13.9 percent in the Pacific, unchanged in Latin America, and declining 10.1 percent in Europe. In 1993, American derived 73.8 percent of its passenger revenues from domestic operations and 26.2 percent from international operations. Although American's system capacity, as measured by available seat miles (ASMs), increased 5.2 percent, its traffic, as measured by RPMs, decreased 0.3 percent. The drastic fare discounting drove traffic up to record levels in 1992. Traffic suffered in 1993 from American's inability to carry passengers during the flight attendants' union strike in November and the adverse effect of the strike on passenger demand during the month of December. American's domestic traffic decreased 3.5 percent, to 69.7 billion RPMs, while domestic capacity grew 2.9 percent. International traffic grew 9.1 percent, to 27.5 billion RPMs on capacity growth of 12.1 percent. The increase in international traffic was led by a 14.7 percent increase in Latin America on capacity growth of 17.5 percent, and a 7.4 percent increase in Europe on capacity growth of 10.8 percent. 17 19 Passenger revenues for the AMR Eagle carriers increased 43.6 percent, $216 million, primarily due to the opening and expansion of regional operations at Dallas/Fort Worth with assets acquired from Metroflight, Inc. Traffic on the AMR Eagle carriers increased 47.6 percent to 2.1 billion RPMs, while capacity grew 41.6 percent to 3.8 billion ASMs. Passenger yield decreased 2.7 percent. Cargo revenues increased 10.7 percent, $62 million, driven by a 22.5 percent increase in American's domestic and international cargo volumes, partially offset by decreasing yields brought about by strong price competition resulting from excess industry capacity. Other revenues, consisting of service fees, liquor revenues, duty-free sales, tour marketing and miscellaneous other revenues, increased 5.6 percent, $28 million, primarily as a result of increased traffic. EXPENSES 1994 COMPARED TO 1993 Air Transportation Group operating expenses in 1994 included restructuring charges of $272 million, primarily resulting from the cost of future pension and other postretirement benefits related to agent and management voluntary early retirement programs. Excluding the restructuring costs, the Air Transportation Group's operating expenses decreased 2.6 percent, $374 million. American's capacity decreased 5.1 percent, due primarily to the retirement of 41 older aircraft, partially offset by the addition of 22 new aircraft. Because capacity decreased more rapidly than expenses, American's Passenger Division cost per ASM, excluding restructuring costs, increased by 1.1 percent, to 8.34 cents. Despite a 4.0 percent decrease in the average number of equivalent employees, wages, salaries and benefits expense rose 1.8 percent, $86 million. The increase was due primarily to contractual and other wage and salary adjustments for existing employees, variable compensation under the Company's various profit sharing plans, and rising pension and other postretirement benefits costs. Aircraft fuel expense decreased 13.9 percent, $261 million, due to an 8.4 percent decrease in American's average price per gallon and a 6.8 percent decrease in gallons consumed by American. American's average price per gallon decreased from $0.62 per gallon in 1993 to $0.57 per gallon in 1994. American consumed an average of 228 million gallons of jet fuel each month. A one-cent increase in fuel prices costs approximately $2.3 million per month, not considering the offsetting effect of the Company's fuel price hedging program. Commissions to agents decreased 7.8 percent, $113 million, due to a lower percentage of passenger revenues subject to commissions and a change in classification of certain international commissions. New aircraft acquisitions and other capital spending increased depreciation and amortization 1.6 percent, $16 million. Capital spending in 1994 included acquisition of 17 owned jet aircraft, five capital-leased jet aircraft and 16 owned turboprop aircraft and other capital equipment. This increase was partially offset by the retirement of 22 owned and capital-leased aircraft from the fleet. Other operating expenses, consisting of aircraft rentals, other rentals and landing fees, food service costs, maintenance expenses and miscellaneous operating expenses, decreased 1.9 percent, $102 million. Aircraft rentals decreased 1.8 percent, $14 million, primarily due to the expiration of operating leases during 1994 on 19 Boeing 727, 19 Jetstream 32, and five Shorts 360 aircraft, partially offset by the addition of 14 Super ATR and three Saab 340 aircraft on operating leases to subsidiaries of AMR Eagle from AMR Leasing. Other rentals and landing fees decreased 1.5 percent, $12 million, due primarily to reduced landing fees expense resulting from American's capacity reductions, partially offset by higher fee rates charged by airports. Food service cost decreased 4.2 percent, $29 million, due to a 1.8 percent decline in passengers boarded and aggressive cost reduction strategies, including changes in meal scheduling policies, renegotiation of contracts and increased use of vendor-prepared products. Maintenance materials and repairs expense decreased 13.7 percent, $90 million. American's maintenance costs were lower as a result of retiring older aircraft from the fleet, increased warranty recoveries, and operational efficiencies gained by reducing the number of maintenance locations and other initiatives. Offsetting the decrease for American, growth of the American Eagle operations generated an increase in its maintenance materials and repairs costs. Miscellaneous operating expenses (including data processing services, booking fees, crew travel expenses, credit card fees, advertising and communications costs) increased 1.8 percent, $43 million, primarily due to increased booking fees. 18 20 1993 COMPARED TO 1992 Air Transportation Group operating expenses increased 4.5 percent, $627 million. American's capacity increased 5.2 percent, to 160.9 billion ASMs, due primarily to the addition of new aircraft. American's Passenger Division cost per ASM decreased 2.0 percent, to 8.25 cents. Wages, salaries and benefits rose 5.3 percent, $245 million, due to wage and salary adjustments for existing employees, rising healthcare costs and a 1.7 percent increase in the average number of equivalent employees. In addition, during the fourth quarter, the Air Transportation Group recorded a $13 million severance provision in conjunction with layoffs and voluntary terminations of management/specialist and operations personnel. Aircraft fuel expense decreased 1.7 percent, $33 million, due to a 4.9 percent decrease in American's average price per gallon, partially offset by a 2.7 percent increase in gallons consumed by American. American's average price per gallon decreased from $0.65 per gallon in 1992 to $0.62 per gallon in 1993. Commissions to agents increased 11.3 percent, $147 million, due principally to increased passenger revenues and increased incentives for travel agents. Depreciation and amortization increased 19.9 percent, $167 million, primarily due to the addition of 44 owned jet aircraft, 24 owned turboprop aircraft and other capital equipment. Other operating expenses, consisting of aircraft rentals, other rentals and landing fees, food service costs, maintenance expenses and miscellaneous operating expenses, increased 2.0 percent, $101 million. Aircraft rentals increased 8.8 percent, $65 million, primarily due to the full-year impact of 1992 operating-leased aircraft additions and the addition of operating-leased aircraft during 1993. Other rentals and landing fees increased 4.4 percent, $33 million, due primarily to increased rentals resulting from additions, improvements and renovations to facilities owned by airport authorities and leased to American. Food service cost increased 0.6 percent, $4 million, reflecting the 9.1 percent increase in international traffic, where food costs are greater, offset by the 3.5 percent decrease in domestic traffic. Maintenance materials and repairs expense decreased 3.5 percent, $24 million, due principally to the retirement of older aircraft and increased operational efficiencies. Miscellaneous operating expenses (including crew travel expenses, booking fees, purchased services, communications charges, credit card fees and advertising) increased 1.0 percent, $23 million, primarily due to the increase in capacity. OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE) Other Income (Expense) consists of interest income and expense, interest capitalized and miscellaneous - net. 1994 COMPARED TO 1993 Interest expense, net of interest income, decreased 3.5 percent, $20 million. Interest expense was lower due to repurchases and retirement of long-term debt and savings generated by interest rate swap transactions, offset in part by the effect of rising interest rates on floating rate obligations. Interest income increased due to a higher average investment balances and higher interest rates. Interest capitalized decreased 58.5 percent, $30 million, primarily as a result of the decrease in the average balance during the year of purchase deposits for flight equipment. Miscellaneous - net for 1994 includes a $25 million charge related to the loss of two regional aircraft operated by subsidiaries of AMR Eagle. Miscellaneous - net for 1993 includes a $125 million charge related to the retirement of certain DC-10 aircraft. 1993 COMPARED TO 1992 Interest expense, net of interest income, increased 10.1 percent, $53 million, as a result of additional external financings, offset in part by interest savings generated from declining interest rates, interest rate swap transactions and repurchases and retirement of long-term debt. In addition, interest capitalized decreased 48.0 percent, $47 million, as a result of the decrease in the average balance during the year of purchase deposits for flight equipment and the decline in interest rates. Miscellaneous - net for 1993 includes a $125 million charge related to the retirement of certain DC-10 aircraft. Included in Miscellaneous - net for 1992 is a $14 million provision for a cash payment representing American's share of a multi-carrier antitrust settlement and an $11 million charge associated with the retirement of an aircraft fleet of one of the AMR Eagle carriers. 19 21 THE SABRE GROUP FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS (dollars in millions)

REVENUES 1994 COMPARED TO 1993 Revenues for The SABRE Group increased 12.6 percent, $172 million. Booking fee revenues increased due to growth in booking volumes, increased average fees per booking collected from participating vendors and the introduction of premium-priced products. Other revenues rose as a result of increased license fee revenues and systems development sales. 1993 COMPARED TO 1992 Revenues for The SABRE Group increased 7.8 percent, $99 million, primarily due to increased booking fees resulting from growth in booking volumes and average fees collected from participating vendors. EXPENSES 1994 COMPARED TO 1993 Wages, salaries and benefits increased 12.2 percent, $53 million, due primarily increased incentive compensation and a 10.8 percent increase in the average number of equivalent employees. Depreciation and amortization increased 4.6 percent, $8 million, as a result of acquiring new computer equipment. Rentals increased 15.7 percent, $8 million, due to additional leased data processing equipment and facilities costs. The SABRE Group's 1994 operating expenses also include $6 million in costs associated with restructuring activities. 1993 COMPARED TO 1992 Wages, salaries and benefits increased 12.4 percent, $48 million, due to wage and salary increases, a 3.8 percent increase in the average number of equivalent employees and a $12 million severance provision for workforce reductions associated with the formation of SABRE Decision Technologies. Other operating expenses increased 9.7 percent, $39 million, due to higher incentive payments to travel agents, outsourcing services related to product line expansion and costs associated with international expansion. OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE) Other Income (Expense) for 1993 and 1992 includes provisions of $71 million and $165 million, respectively, for losses associated with a reservations system project and resolution of related litigation. 20 22 AMR MANAGEMENT SERVICES GROUP FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS (dollars in millions)

REVENUES 1994 COMPARED TO 1993 Revenues for the AMR Management Services Group increased 18.4 percent, $83 million. AMR Services' revenues increased 17.3 percent, $49 million, primarily as a result of strong domestic fuel and deicing service sales, the acquisition of an additional domestic fixed-base operator in November 1993 and the expansion of international operations. AMR Leasing's revenues decreased 12.9 percent, $18 million, due to the expiration of operating leases on 19 Jetstream 32 aircraft, partially offset by the addition of 13 Super ATR aircraft in AMR Leasing's regional aircraft fleet. Revenues of the AMR Training and Consulting Group, which began operations in the first quarter of 1993, increased $29 million. Revenues of Americas Ground Services, which began operations in the second quarter of 1993, increased $17 million. 1993 COMPARED TO 1992 Revenues for the AMR Management Services Group increased 34.5 percent, $116 million. AMR Services' revenues increased 15.2 percent, $37 million, primarily as a result of strong domestic fuel and deicing sales, expansion of European operations and the acquisition of an additional domestic fixed-base operator in November. AMR Leasing's revenues increased 73.2 percent, $59 million, with additional turboprop aircraft under rental to subsidiaries of AMR Eagle. In addition, Americas Ground Services ended 1993, its first year, with more than $10 million in revenues. EXPENSES 1994 COMPARED TO 1993 Wages, salaries and benefits increased 49.5 percent, $54 million, due primarily to an increase in the average number of equivalent employees and wage and salary adjustments for existing employess. Aircraft rentals decreased 29.3 percent, $24 million, and depreciation and amortization increased 14.0 percent, $6 million, with the decline in operating leased aircraft and the increase in owned aircraft in AMR Leasing's turboprop fleet, respectively. Other operating expenses increased 24.7 percent, $42 million, due primarily to the expansion of AMR Services, AMR Training & Consulting Group and Americas Ground Services. 1993 COMPARED TO 1992 Wages, salaries and benefits increased 23.9 percent, $21 million, due primarily to a 37.5 percent increase in the average number of equivalent employees. Aircraft rentals increased 86.4 percent, $38 million, and depreciation and amortization increased 30.3 percent, $10 million, with additional operating-leased and owned aircraft in AMR Leasing's turboprop fleet. Other operating expenses increased 19.7 percent, $28 million, due primarily to the expansion of AMR Services and Americas Ground Services' first year of operations. 21 23 INFLATION Adjustment of historical cost data to reflect the impact of general inflation and specific price changes would worsen AMR's operating results, principally because of the increased depreciation and amortization resulting from the replacement, at current cost, of equipment and property with assets that have the same service potential. However, because AMR's monetary liabilities exceed monetary assets, the worsened operating results would be partially offset by the gain from the decline in purchasing power of the net amounts owed. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Operating activities provided net cash of $1.7 billion in 1994, $1.4 billion in 1993 and $843 million in 1992. Capital expenditures in 1994 totaled $1.3 billion, compared to $2.1 billion in 1993 and $3.3 billion in 1992. In 1994, the Company took delivery of 17 owned jet aircraft - three Boeing 757-200s, one Boeing 767-300ER and 13 Fokker 100s. The Company also took delivery of 17 turboprop aircraft - 14 Super ATRs and three Saab 340Bs. CAPITAL COMMITMENTS FIRM DELIVERIES At December 31, 1994, AMR had 19 aircraft on order, aggregating approximately $650 million, for delivery in 1995 and 1996. The Company had firm orders for ten Boeing 757-200s, four Boeing 767-300ERs and five Super ATRs. In 1995, the Company is scheduled to take delivery of ten jet aircraft -- six Boeing 757-200s and four Boeing 767-300ERs -- as well as five Super ATR turboprop aircraft. Total expenditures for 1995 for aircraft acquisitions and related equipment will be approximately $500 million. OTHER The Company also has authorized capital expenditures in 1995 of approximately $225 million for aircraft modifications, computer equipment, renovations of, and additions to, airport and office facilities and various other equipment and assets. AMR intends to finance its capital asset acquisitions through the use of internally generated funds. At March 1, 1995, no borrowings were outstanding under American's credit facilities and approximately $1.16 billion was available under the facilities. AMR continually reviews its need for additional aircraft and ground properties and makes investments based on return-on-investment analyses and both short-term and long-term profitability forecasts. AMR has several ways to adjust its plans, including terminating certain operating leases, scaling back or canceling planned facility expansions and delaying other planned expenditures. AIRCRAFT OPTIONS In addition to aircraft on firm order at December 31, 1994, American has 97 jet aircraft available on option - nine Boeing 757-200s, three Boeing 767-300ERs, ten McDonnell Douglas MD-11s and 75 Fokker 100s. The Company also has 94 turboprop aircraft available on option - 54 Super ATRs, 30 Saab 2000s and 10 ATR 42s. OTHER INFORMATION WORKING CAPITAL AMR (principally American Airlines) historically operates with a working capital deficit as do most other airline companies. The existence of such a deficit has not in the past impaired the Company's ability to meet its obligations as they become due and is not expected to do so in the future. DEFERRED TAX ASSETS As of December 31, 1994, the Company had deferred tax assets aggregating approximately $2.5 billion, including approximately $348 million of alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards. The Company believes substantially all the deferred tax assets will be realized through reversal of existing taxable temporary differences. 22 24 ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS Subsidiaries of AMR have been notified of potential liability with regard to several environmental cleanup sites. At sites where remedial litigation has commenced, potential liability is joint and several. AMR's alleged volumetric contributions at the sites are minimal. AMR does not expect these actions, individually or collectively, to have a material impact on its financial condition, operating results or cash flows. DISCOUNT RATE Due to the increase in interest rates during 1994, the discount rate used to determine the Company's pension obligations as of December 31, 1994 and the related expense for 1995 has been increased. The Company expects the decrease in 1995 pension expense as a result of the change in the discount rate will be more than offset by the impact of depreciation in the market value of pension plan assets experienced during 1994. LITIGATION SETTLEMENT During 1994, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia approved the settlement of various class action claims against American and certain other carriers. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the carriers paid a total of approximately $50 million in cash and jointly issued approximately $408 million in face amount of certificates for discounts of approximately 10 percent on future air travel on any of the carriers. A liability has not been established for the certificate portion of the settlement since American expects that, in the aggregate, future revenues received upon redemption of the certificates will exceed the related cost of providing the air travel. American anticipates that the share of the certificates redeemed on American may represent, but is not limited to, American's 26 percent market share among the carriers. The ultimate impact of the settlement on American's revenues, operating margins or earnings is not reasonably estimable since both the portion of certificates to be redeemed on American and the stimulative or depressive effect of the certificate redemption on revenues is not known. 23 25 OUTLOOK FOR 1995 During 1994, AMR continued the course of change initiated in 1993. Following a comprehensive review of the competitive realities of its businesses, in 1993 the Company determined it would have to change significantly to generate sufficient earnings. The Company recognized that the fundamental problems of the airline -- increasing competition from low-cost, low-fare carriers, its inability to reduce labor costs to competitive levels and the changing values of its customers -- demanded new solutions. As an initial response to that need, in 1993 the Company created and began implementing a new strategic framework known as the Transition Plan. The plan has three parts, each intended to improve the Company's results. First, make the core airline business bigger and stronger where economically justified. Second, and conversely, shrink the airline where it cannot compete profitably. Third, encourage the growth of the information and management services businesses, which are more profitable than the airline. The Transition Plan recognizes the unfavorable and uncertain economics which have characterized the core airline business in recent years, acknowledges the airline cost problem and seeks to maximize the contribution of the Company's more profitable businesses. Over the long term, the Company will continue its best efforts to reduce airline costs and to restore the airline operations to profitability. Based upon the success or failure of those efforts, the Company will make ongoing determinations as to the appropriate level of its investment in its airline operations, which may result, if the airline cannot be run profitably, in the disposition or termination, over the long term, of a substantial part or all of the airline operations. AIR TRANSPORTATION GROUP Despite the challenges faced by American, the airline has many basic strengths. These include a hub-and-spoke route network that allows it to efficiently serve thousands of domestic and international markets; a modern, quiet, fuel-efficient fleet; the AAdvantage frequent flyer program; and leading-edge computer technology, including the industry's premier yield management system. These strengths and American's continued focus on premium-fare traffic have helped to lessen the impact of an adverse pricing environment. While competitive pressures have continued to weaken passenger yields, robust economic conditions and careful revenue management have led to increases in American's passenger revenue per ASM. During 1995, American will add to the number of flights at its most successful hub operations at Dallas/Fort Worth and Miami, as well as in certain transcontinental and international markets. As restructuring programs announced in late 1994 are phased in, American will make substantial progress in reducing certain labor costs. Changes in the way American operates its airports and reservations offices, including outsourcing small station operations and some reservations activities and in the way it pays hourly non-management employees such as ticket agents and reservations agents, are expected to save about $35 million in 1995 and about $130 million annually when steady state is achieved in four to five years. In addition, in March 1995 the Company announced the results of a six-month study of the Air Transportation Group's administrative functions. The Company expects to implement changes based on the results of the study which will result in cost savings of approximately $38 million in 1995. Once the changes are fully implemented in 1996, they are expected to reduce annual administrative costs by approximately $93 million. Also as a result of the study, the Company announced certain organizational changes which are expected to yield additional cost savings. Despite ongoing efforts, the airline has yet to make significant progress in reducing its contractual labor costs. American is currently in various stages of discussion with all three of its major unions. The ultimate outcome of these discussions cannot be estimated at this time. First, the Company's contract with the Association of Professional Flight Attendants (APFA) became amendable in December 1992. Following a lengthy negotiation and mediation process, the APFA staged a five-day strike against the Company in November 1993. The strike ended when both parties agreed to binding arbitration. The arbitration process began last October, and the arbitrators' decision is expected sometime during late summer. While the outcome cannot be predicted, the new contract will likely result in higher unit labor costs in 1995 than in 1994. 24 26 Second, American has been in negotiations since last July with the Allied Pilots Association (APA) which represents its 9,100 pilots. The contract with the APA became amendable August 31, 1994. In exchange for substantial productivity improvements, American has offered both job and income protection. To date, little progress has been made, and it is not clear when -- or if -- American will be successful in achieving the needed changes. Finally, American's contract with the Transport Workers Union (TWU), which represents its ramp service workers and mechanics, became amendable March 1, 1995. The Company and the TWU opened formal negotiations in February. American is discussing both enhanced job security and early-retirement programs in exchange for a fundamentally revised agreement that will give it the right to outsource certain functions, use more part-time employees and implement other efficiency improvements. Faced with the prospect of continuing to bear uncompetitive labor costs, American has continued to downsize, primarily in domestic markets. Since the initial phases of the Transition Plan were implemented in 1993, American has cut jet service to about 30 cities and on over 100 routes. Approximately 90 older, less efficient jet aircraft have been removed from the fleet, and, as a result, approximately 5,000 positions at the airline have been eliminated. In 1995, American plans to remove another 23 Boeing 727 and three McDonnell Douglas DC-10 aircraft from the fleet. American will add six Boeing 757 and four Boeing 767 aircraft to the fleet, as the last delivery from the large jet orders of the 1980s approaches. These changes will reduce the number of jet aircraft in the fleet to 633 at the end of 1995, down from 647 at December 31, 1994 and 667 at December 31, 1993. As the fleet continues to shrink, American will continue to reallocate assets to its most profitable markets and to refine its operations. Despite continued fleet reductions, American's system wide capacity is planned to increase slightly, primarily due to increased aircraft utilization. This capacity increase follows a 5.1 percent decline in 1994. Domestic ASMs are expected to fall 1.1 percent, while international ASMs will increase 5.4 percent. The American Eagle carriers' results in early 1995 will continue to be affected by the FAA's temporary restrictions on the operation of ATR aircraft. In December 1994, the American Eagle carriers ceased operations at Raleigh/Durham and redeployed their fleets to move the ATR aircraft to the south, and Saab aircraft to the north, to lessen the impact of the restrictions on their operations. As the aircraft are returned to their original locations, the carriers expect operations to improve during the second quarter and return to normal by the third quarter. In January 1995, American announced a substantial reduction at Raleigh/Durham that will end its hub operations there by summer. At the same time, the Company announced an agreement to sublease 12 gates to Midway Airlines, which joined the AAdvantage frequent flyer program as a full participant. As a result, American will eliminate a substantial amount of overhead while maintaining a marketing presence in the North/South traffic flow. Midway's service at Raleigh/Durham will complement American's service in markets between the Northeast and Florida. American also announced a significant reduction in flights at the Nashville hub for 1995. In February 1995, American changed its travel agent commission structure for domestic tickets by introducing a maximum commission payment of $50 per round-trip ticket and $25 per one-way ticket. The change is effective for tickets issued on or after February 27. The commission cap applies to all tickets issued by U.S. travel agents for travel within the continental United States, Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The change in commission structure is expected to result in lower commissions expense in 1995. American's revenue plan for 1995 reflects continued emphasis on producing premium yields by attracting more full fare passengers than its competitors. As a part of that plan, American will expand service at its most successful hubs, increase frequencies in key long-haul business markets and add service in certain international markets. 25 27 In 1995, though the Air Transportation Group will continue its rigorous program of cost control, it expects unit costs, excluding fuel and the impact of the change in the commission structure, to rise modestly over 1994's unit costs, excluding the restructuring costs. The increase in unit labor costs due to contractual wage and benefit increases will be partially offset by the savings generated by the implementation of other labor cost reduction initiatives. American will continue to pursue other sources of revenue, including building AAdvantage program participation and joint marketing programs, leasing excess aircraft, and pursuing contracts to provide maintenance, training and other services. The Company will also seek to increase airline cargo revenues in 1995. In August 1993, the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act was signed into law, imposing a new 4.3 cents per gallon tax on commercial aviation jet fuel for use in domestic operations. The new tax will become effective October 1, 1995, and is scheduled to continue until October 1, 1998. American estimates the resulting annual increase in fuel taxes will be approximately $90 million. Since the Company cannot currently generate sufficient returns to justify investment in new aircraft, capital expenditures will continue to fall. For 1995, the Company plans capital spending of approximately $1 billion, and by 1996 planned capital spending for The SABRE Group will be approximately equal to planned spending for the airline, each at about $300 million. As a result of the decreased capital spending, the Company expects to generate positive cash flow in 1995. The Company began a program in the second half of 1993 to reduce interest expense and intends to continue the program in 1995. This may involve the retirement or refinancing of debt as well as the repurchase, in the open market or otherwise, of a significant amount of debt in excess of scheduled 1995 repayments. The total amount of debt retired, refinanced or repurchased will depend on market conditions, the Company's cash position and other considerations. THE SABRE GROUP During 1994, The SABRE Group implemented a new business strategy that will narrow its focus and capitalize on its strengths in travel and transportation information systems and decision support. Following STIN's expansion in Europe, Latin America and Mexico and the introduction of SABRE into India in 1994, The SABRE Group will focus on continued international growth of the SABRE computer reservations system in 1995. In addition, SDT will continue to develop and market an expanding array of information systems products and services to a growing list of customers throughout the world. The SABRE Group was instrumental in successfully implementing the Company's long-term services agreement with Canadian Airlines International. That agreement is expected to generate average revenues for the Company of more than $100 million a year in each of the next 20 years, beginning in 1995. The majority of the revenues relate to services provided by The SABRE Group. AMR MANAGEMENT SERVICES GROUP AMR Management Services Group's dramatic revenue growth over the past several years will slow, reflecting the impact of discontinued businesses at AMR Services and fewer regional aircraft additions at AMR Leasing, partially offset by the addition of revenues from Airline Management Services and stronger revenues for AMR Training & Consulting Group. Effective January 1, 1995, two business units which have been included in The SABRE Group for financial reporting purposes in 1993 and 1994 -- TeleService Resources and Data Management Services -- became part of the AMR Management Services Group. 26 28 ITEM 8.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 34 36 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of AMR Corporation (AMR or the Company) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated. Certain amounts from prior years have been reclassified to conform with the 1994 presentation. INVENTORIES Spare parts, materials and supplies relating to flight equipment are carried at average cost and are expensed when used in operations. Allowances for obsolescence are provided, over the estimated useful life of the related aircraft and engines, for spare parts expected to be on hand at the date aircraft are retired from service. EQUIPMENT AND PROPERTY The provision for depreciation of operating equipment and property is computed on the straight-line method applied to each unit of property, except that spare assemblies are depreciated on a group basis. The depreciable lives and residual values used for the principal depreciable asset classifications are:
Residual Depreciable Life Value ----------------------------- ---------- Boeing 727-200 21 years(1) 5% DC-10-10 and DC-10-30 December 31, 1999(2) 5% Other jet aircraft 20 years 5% Regional aircraft and engines 15-17 years 10% Major rotable parts, avionics and assemblies Life of equipment to which applicable 10% Improvements to leased flight equipment Term of lease None Buildings and improvements (principally on 10-30 years or term of lease None leased land) Other equipment 3-20 years None
(1) In 1991, American changed the estimated useful lives of its Boeing 727-200 aircraft and engines from a common retirement date of December 31, 1994, to projected retirement dates by aircraft, which results in an average depreciable life of approximately 21 years. (2) Approximate common retirement date. Equipment and property under capital leases are amortized over the term of the leases and such amortization is included in depreciation and amortization. Lease terms vary but are generally 10 to 20 years for aircraft and 7 to 40 years for other leased equipment and property. MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR COSTS Maintenance and repair costs for owned and leased flight equipment are charged to operating expense as incurred, except engine overhaul costs incurred by AMR's regional carriers, which are accrued on the basis of hours flown. INTANGIBLE ASSETS The Company continually evaluates intangible assets to determine whether current events and circumstances warrant adjustment of the carrying values or amortization periods. Route acquisition costs and airport operating and gate lease rights represent the purchase price attributable to route authorities, airport take-off and landing slots and airport gate leasehold rights acquired and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 10 to 40 years. PASSENGER REVENUES Passenger ticket sales are initially recorded as a current liability. Revenue derived from the sale is recognized at the time transportation is provided. FREQUENT FLYER PROGRAM The estimated incremental cost of providing free travel awards is accrued when such award levels are reached. American sells mileage credits to participating companies in its frequent flyer program. The portion of such revenues that relates to transportation is deferred and recognized over a period approximating the time transportation is provided. 35 37 1. SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) INCOME TAXES AMR and its eligible subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the financial reporting carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and the income tax amounts. DEFERRED GAINS Gains on the sale and leaseback of equipment and property are deferred and amortized over the terms of the related leases as a reduction of rent expense. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Market value gains or losses on foreign currency exchange agreements are recognized and offset against foreign exchange gains or losses on the related existing assets or liabilities. Gains and losses on fuel swap agreements are recognized as a component of fuel expense when the underlying fuel being hedged is used. Net settlements under interest rate swap agreements are reflected in interest expense on the accrual basis. STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS Short-term investments, without regard to remaining maturity at acquisition, are not considered as cash equivalents for purposes of the statement of cash flows. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE Earnings (loss) per share computations are based upon the earnings (loss) applicable to common shares and the average number of shares of common stock outstanding and dilutive common stock equivalents (stock options, warrants and deferred stock) outstanding. The convertible subordinated debentures and the convertible preferred stock are not common stock equivalents. The number of shares used in the computations of primary and fully diluted earnings (loss) per common share for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, was 76.2 million, 76.0 million and 74.9 million, respectively. Information on the adjustment to the earnings per share computation for the year ended December 31, 1994, for the effect of the preferred stock exchange is included in Note 5. 2. SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS Short-term investments consisted of (in millions):
December 31, --------------------------------- 1994 1993 ----------- ------------ Overnight investments and time deposits $ 324 $ - Corporate notes 246 222 Federal and municipal government securities 35 150 Other debt securities 149 151 ----------- ------------ $ 754 $ 523 =========== ============
Short-term investments at December 31, 1994, by contractual maturity included (in millions): Due in one year or less $ 498 Due after one year through three years 121 Due after three years 135 ----------- $ 754 ===========
All short-term investments were classified as available-for-sale and stated at fair value. 36 38 3. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Company has on order 14 jet aircraft -- ten Boeing 757-200s and four Boeing 767-300ERs -- scheduled for delivery in 1995 and 1996, and five Super ATR turboprop aircraft scheduled for delivery in 1995. Deposits of $116 million have been made toward the purchase of these aircraft. Future payments, including estimated amounts for price escalation through anticipated delivery dates for these aircraft and related equipment, will be approximately $500 million in 1995 and $150 million in 1996, a portion of which is payable in foreign currencies. In addition to these commitments for aircraft, the Company has authorized expenditures of approximately $350 million for aircraft modifications, renovations of, and additions to, airport and office facilities and various other equipment and assets. AMR expects to spend approximately $225 million of this amount in 1995. AMR and American have included an event risk covenant in approximately $383 million of debentures and approximately $2.9 billion of lease agreements. The covenant permits the holders of such instruments to receive a higher rate of return (between 50 and 700 basis points above the stated rate) if a designated event, as defined, should occur and the credit rating of the debentures or the debt obligations underlying the lease agreements is downgraded below certain levels. In July 1991, American entered into a five-year agreement whereby American transfers, on a continuing basis and with recourse to the receivables, an undivided interest in a designated pool of receivables. Undivided interests in new receivables are transferred daily as collections reduce previously transferred receivables. At December 31, 1994 and 1993, receivables are presented net of approximately $112 million and $300 million, respectively, of such transferred receivables. American maintains an allowance for uncollectible receivables based upon expected collectibility of all receivables, including the receivables transferred. Special facility revenue bonds have been issued by certain municipalities, primarily to purchase equipment and improve airport facilities which are leased by American. In certain cases, the bond issue proceeds were loaned to American and are included in long-term debt. Certain bonds have rates that are periodically reset and are remarketed by various agents. In certain circumstances, American may be required to purchase up to $413 million of the special facility revenue bonds prior to maturity, in which case American has the right to resell the bonds or to use the bonds to offset its lease or debt obligations. American may borrow the purchase price of these bonds under standby letter-of-credit agreements. At American's option, these letters of credit are secured by funds held by bond trustees and by approximately $421 million of short-term investments. 37 39 4. LEASES AMR's subsidiaries lease various types of equipment and property, including aircraft, passenger terminals, equipment and various other facilities. The future minimum lease payments required under capital leases, together with the present value of net minimum lease payments, and future minimum lease payments required under operating leases that have initial or remaining non-cancelable lease terms in excess of one year as of December 31, 1994, were (in millions):
Capital Operating Year Ending December 31, Leases Leases ----------- ------------ 1995 $ 273 $ 946 1996 300 924 1997 280 920 1998 276 931 1999 270 912 2000 and subsequent 2,440 15,378 ----------- ------------ 3,839 (1) $ 20,011 (2) ============ Less amount representing interest 1,436 ----------- Present value of net minimum lease payments $ 2,403 ===========
(1) Future minimum payments required under capital leases include $390 million and $216 million guaranteed by AMR and American, respectively, relating to special facility revenue bonds issued by municipalities. (2) Future minimum payments required under operating leases include $6.3 billion guaranteed by AMR relating to special facility revenue bonds issued by municipalities. At December 31, 1994, the Company had 216 jet aircraft and 123 turboprop aircraft under operating leases, and 82 jet aircraft and 63 turboprop aircraft under capital leases. The aircraft leases can generally be renewed at rates based on fair market value at the end of the lease term for one to five years. Most aircraft leases have purchase options at or near the end of the lease term at fair market value, but generally not to exceed a stated percentage of the defined lessor's cost of the aircraft. Of the aircraft American has under operating leases, 15 Boeing 767-300ERs are cancelable upon 30 days' notice during the initial 10-year lease term. At the end of that term in 1998, the leases can be renewed for periods ranging from 10 to 12 years. Rent expense, excluding landing fees, was $1.3 billion for 1994, 1993 and 1992. 38 40 5. INDEBTEDNESS Long-term debt (excluding amounts maturing within one year) consisted of (in millions):
December 31, --------------------------------- 1994 1993 ----------- ------------ 6.075% - 10.70% notes due through 2025 $ 2,531 $ 2,846 8.625% - 10.20% debentures due through 2021 (net of unamortized discount of $10) 1,188 1,308 6.125% convertible subordinated debentures due 2024 (net of unamortized discount of $189 at December 31, 1994) 832 - Variable rate indebtedness due through 2024 (3.622% - 6.9375% at December 31, 1994) 681 891 7.10% - 9.25% bonds due through 2031 280 280 Other 91 106 ----------- ------------ Long-term debt, less current maturities $ 5,603 $ 5,431 =========== ============
Maturities of long-term debt (including sinking fund requirements) for the next five years are: 1995 - $590 million; 1996 - $231 million; 1997 - $399 million; 1998 - $436 million; 1999 - $65 million. Certain debt is secured by aircraft, engines, equipment and other assets having a net book value of approximately $1.6 billion. In November 1994, AMR issued $1.02 billion in par value of convertible subordinated debentures in exchange for 2.04 million shares of its outstanding convertible preferred stock with a carrying value of $1.0 billion. Each $1,000 debenture is convertible into common stock of AMR at a conversion price of $79 per share, equivalent to 12.658 shares per $1,000 debenture. As a result of the exchange, the Company recorded a $171 million non-cash increase in additional paid-in capital, representing the difference in the fair value of the new debentures and the carrying value of the preferred shares exchanged. While this amount did not impact net earnings for the year ended December 31, 1994, it is included in the computation of earnings per share. During 1993, AMR repurchased and retired prior to maturity its zero coupon subordinated convertible notes due 2006 and certain other long-term debt with a total carrying value of $802 million. The repurchases and retirements resulted in an extraordinary loss of $21 million ($14 million after tax). Additional borrowings and cash from operations provided the funding for the repurchases and retirements. American has a $410 million short-term credit facility agreement which expires in 1995 and a $750 million credit facility expiring in 1997. American also had a $335 million multiple option facility which American terminated in January 1995. Interest on these agreements is calculated at floating rates based upon the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). At February 13, 1995, no borrowings were outstanding and approximately $1.16 billion was available under these facilities. American's debt and credit facility agreements contain certain restrictive covenants, including a cash flow coverage test, a minimum net worth requirement and limitations on indebtedness and the declaration of dividends on shares of its capital stock. Certain of these restrictions could affect AMR's ability to pay dividends. At December 31, 1994, under the most restrictive provisions of those agreements, approximately $629 million of American's retained earnings were available for payment of cash dividends to AMR. Certain of AMR's debt agreements contain restrictive covenants, including a limitation on the declaration of dividends on shares of capital stock. At December 31, 1994, under the terms of such agreements, all of AMR's retained earnings were available for payment of dividends. 39 41 6. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT As part of the Company's risk management program, AMR uses a variety of financial instruments, including interest rate swaps, fuel swaps and currency exchange agreements. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. NOTIONAL AMOUNTS AND CREDIT EXPOSURES OF DERIVATIVES The notional amounts of derivative financial instruments summarized in the tables which follow do not represent amounts exchanged between the parties and, therefore, are not a measure of the Company's exposure resulting from its use of derivatives. The amounts exchanged are calculated based on the notional amounts and other terms of the instruments, which relate to interest rates, exchange rates or other indices. The Company is exposed to credit losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to these financial instruments, but it does not expect any of the counterparties to fail to meet its obligations. The credit exposure related to these financial instruments is represented by the fair value of contracts with a positive fair value at the reporting date, reduced by the effects of master netting agreements. To manage credit risks, the Company selects counterparties based on credit ratings, limits its exposure to a single counterparty under defined guidelines, and monitors the market position of the program and its relative market position with each counterparty. The Company also maintains industry-standard security agreements with the majority of its counterparties which may require the Company or the counterparty to post collateral in certain situations. As of December 31, 1994, no collateral was required under these agreements. INTEREST RATE RISK MANAGEMENT American enters into interest rate swap contracts to effectively convert a portion of its fixed-rate obligations to floating-rate obligations. Under the contracts, American agrees with other parties to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed-rate and floating-rate interest amounts calculated on a notional principal amount. Because American's operating results tend to be better in economic cycles with relatively high interest rates and its capital investments tend to be financed with long-term fixed-rate instruments, interest rate swaps in which American pays the floating rate and receives the fixed rate are used to reduce the impact of economic cycles on American's net income. The following table indicates the notional amounts and fair values of the Company's interest rate swap agreements (in millions):
December 31, ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1994 1993 ------------------------------ --------------------------------- Notional Notional Amount Fair Value Amount Fair Value ------------ ----------- ------------ ------------ Interest rate swap agreements $ 1,980 $ (174) $ 1,405 $ (6)
The fair values represent the amount the Company would have to pay to terminate the agreements at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The rise in interest rates during 1994 resulted in a decrease in the market value of the Company's fixed-rate debt obligations in excess of the decrease in the value of the interest rate swap agreements. At December 31, 1994, the weighted average remaining life of the interest rate swap agreements in effect was 4.6 years. The weighted average floating rates and fixed rates on the contracts outstanding were:
December 31, --------------------------- 1994 1993 ---- ---- Average floating rate 5.720% 3.415% Average fixed rate 5.207% 4.985%
40 42 6. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) Floating rates are based primarily on LIBOR and may change significantly, affecting future cash flows. The net impact of the interest rate swap program on interest expense was a decrease of $14 million and $6 million in 1994 and 1993, respectively. The impact on the Company's weighted-average borrowing rate for the periods presented is immaterial. FUEL PRICE RISK MANAGEMENT American enters into fuel swap contracts to protect against increases in jet fuel prices. Under the agreements, American receives or makes payments based on the difference between a fixed price and a variable price for certain fuel commodities. At December 31, 1994, American had agreements with broker-dealers to exchange payments on approximately 378 million gallons of fuel products which represents approximately 14 percent of its expected 1995 fuel needs. The Company does not expect the fuel price hedging program to have a material effect on liquidity. The fair value of the Company's fuel swap agreements at December 31, 1994, representing the amount the Company would receive to terminate the agreements, was immaterial. FOREIGN EXCHANGE RISK MANAGEMENT To hedge against the risk of future currency exchange rate fluctuations on certain debt and lease obligations and related interest payable in foreign currencies, the Company has entered into various foreign currency exchange agreements. Changes in the value of the agreements due to exchange rate fluctuations are offset by changes in the value of the foreign currency denominated debt and lease obligations translated at the current rate. The net fair values of the Company's currency exchange agreements, representing the amount AMR would receive to terminate the agreements, were:
December 31, ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1994 1993 ------------------------------ --------------------------------- Notional Notional Amount Fair Value Amount Fair Value ------------ ----------- ------------ ------------ Swiss Francs 195 million $ 54 285 million $ 34 Japanese Yen 25.6 billion 41 20.3 billion 18
The Swiss Franc agreement carries an exchange rate of 1.63 Francs per U.S. dollar. The exchange rates on the Japanese Yen agreements range from 66.50 to 137.26 Yen per U.S. dollar. At the present time, the Company has no significant unhedged exposure to foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities. 41 43 6. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The fair values of the Company's long-term debt were estimated using quoted market prices, where available. For long-term debt not actively traded, fair values were estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based on the Company's current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company's long-term debt, including current maturities, were (in millions):
December 31, ---------------------------------------------------------------- 1994 1993 --------------------------- -------------------------- Carrying Fair Carrying Fair Value Value Value Value ------- ----- -------- ----- 6.075% - 10.70% notes $2,778 $2,692 $2,982 $3,263 8.625% - 10.20% debentures 1,188 1,117 1,308 1,443 6.125% convertible subordinated debentures 832 826 - - Variable rate indebtedness 1,005 1,005 907 907 7.10% - 9.25% bonds 280 342 280 331 Other 110 95 154 145 ------ ------ ------ ------ $6,193 $6,077 $5,631 $6,089 ====== ====== ====== ======

The income tax provision (benefit) includes a federal income tax provision of $108 million for the year ended December 31, 1994, and a federal income tax benefit of $30 million and $219 million for the years ended December 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively. In addition, a deferred tax benefit of $120 million was recognized for the adjustment to the minimum pension liability in the year ended December 31, 1994. Effective January 1, 1992, AMR adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," (FAS 109), changing its method of accounting for income taxes. As permitted under the new rules, prior years' financial statements have not been restated to reflect the change in accounting method. The cumulative effect of adopting FAS 109 decreased the net loss for the year ended December 31, 1992, by $135 million, or $1.81 per share. A deferred tax benefit of $322 million was recognized in the year ended December 31, 1992, upon adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other than Pensions," (FAS 106). 42 44 7. INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED) The income tax provision (benefit) differed from amounts computed at the statutory federal income tax rate as follows (in millions):

At December 31, 1994, AMR had available for federal income tax purposes approximately $348 million of alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards available for an indefinite period, and approximately $2.1 billion of net operating loss carryforwards for regular tax purposes which expire as follows: 2007 - $970 million, 2008 - $838 million, and 2009 - $247 million. 43 45 8. PREFERRED STOCK AND COMMON STOCK RIGHTS In 1993, AMR issued 2.2 million shares of 6% Series A cumulative convertible preferred stock, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $1.1 billion. At the holder's option, each preferred share is convertible into 6.3492 shares of common stock at any time. At the Company's option after February 1, 1996, the preferred shares are redeemable at specified redemption prices. In 1994, AMR exchanged $1.02 billion in face value of newly issued 6.125% convertible subordinated debentures due 2024 for 2.04 million of the preferred shares. See Note 5 for a more detailed description of the debentures. Each outstanding share of common stock has one preferred stock purchase right which entitles stockholders to purchase 1/100th of a share of an authorized series of preferred stock. Generally, the rights will not be exercisable until a party either acquires beneficial ownership of 10 percent of AMR's common stock or makes a tender offer for at least 30 percent of its common stock. The rights, which expire in 1996, do not have voting rights and may be redeemed by AMR at $0.05 per right at any time prior to the time that 10 percent or more of AMR's shares have been accumulated by a single acquirer or group. If AMR is acquired in a merger or business combination, each right has an exercise price of $200 and can be used to purchase the common stock of the surviving company having a market value of twice the exercise price of each right. As a result, the Board has reserved 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock for possible conversion of these rights. 9. STOCK AWARDS AND OPTIONS Under the 1988 Long Term Incentive Plan, as amended in 1994, (1988 Plan), officers and key employees of AMR and its subsidiaries may be granted stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, deferred stock, stock purchase rights and/or other stock-based awards. The total number of common shares authorized for distribution under the 1988 Plan is 7,200,000 shares. In the event that additional shares of the Company's common stock are issued, 7.65% of such newly issued shares will be allocated to the 1988 Plan, provided that the maximum number of shares which may be allocated to the 1988 Plan may not exceed the total number of authorized shares as of December 31, 1987. The 1988 Plan will terminate no later than May 18, 1998. Options granted are exercisable at the market value of the stock upon grant, generally becoming exercisable in equal annual installments over one to five years following the date of grant and expiring 10 years from the date of grant. Stock appreciation rights may be granted in tandem with options awarded. At December 31, 1994, 527,600 stock appreciation rights were outstanding. Stock option activity was:

44 46 9. STOCK AWARDS AND OPTIONS (CONTINUED) Shares of deferred stock are awarded at no cost to officers and key employees under the 1988 Plan's Career Equity Program and will be issued upon the individual's retirement from AMR or, in certain circumstances, will vest on a pro rata basis. Deferred stock activity was:
Year Ended December 31, ------------------------------------------------ 1994 1993 1992 ---- ---- ---- Outstanding at January 1 1,510,860 1,526,053 1,676,350 Granted 88,800 144,300 143,000 Issued (56,625) (84,321) (239,217) Canceled (46,232) (75,172) (54,080) --------- --------- --------- Outstanding at December 31 1,496,803 1,510,860 1,526,053 ========= ========= =========
AMR has a restricted stock incentive plan, under which officers and key employees were awarded shares of its common stock at no cost. At December 31, 1993, all 250,000 shares authorized for issuance in connection with the plan had been granted. Vesting of the shares occurs generally over a five-year period. A new performance share plan was implemented in 1993 under the terms of which shares of deferred stock are awarded at no cost to officers and key employees under the 1988 Plan. The shares vest over a three-year performance period based upon AMR's ratio of operating cash flow to adjusted total assets. Performance share activity was:
Year Ended December 31, ----------------------------- 1994 1993 ---- ---- Outstanding at January 1 246,650 - Granted 271,800 246,650 Issued - - Canceled (10,120) - ------- ------- Outstanding at December 31 508,330 246,650 ======= =======
At December 31, 1994, 21.6 million shares of AMR's common stock were reserved for the issuance of stock upon the conversion of convertible preferred stock and convertible subordinated debentures, the exercise of options, and the issuance of restricted stock and deferred stock. 45 47 10. RETIREMENT BENEFITS Substantially all employees of American and employees of certain other subsidiaries are eligible to participate in pension plans. The defined benefit plans provide benefits for participating employees based on years of service and average compensation for a specified period of time before retirement. Airline pilots and flight engineers also participate in defined contribution plans for which Company contributions are determined as a percentage of participant compensation. Total costs for all pension plans were (in millions):
Year Ended December 31, ------------------------------------------------ 1994 1993 1992 ---- ---- ---- Defined benefit plans: Service cost - benefits earned during the period $ 204 $ 167 $ 152 Interest cost on projected benefit obligation 292 285 268 Loss (return) on assets 232 (638) (229) Net amortization and deferral (541) 356 (52) ------ ------- ------ Net periodic pension cost for defined benefit plans 187 170 139 Defined contribution plans 119 118 108 Early retirement programs(1) 154 - - ------ ------- ------ Total $ 460 $ 288 $ 247 ====== ======= ======
(1) In late 1994, AMR offered early retirement programs to select groups of employees as part of its restructuring efforts. In accordance with FAS 88, AMR recognized additional pension expense of $154 million associated with these programs. Of this amount, $120 million was for special termination benefits and $34 million was for the actuarial loss resulting from the early retirements. 46 48 10. RETIREMENT BENEFITS (CONTINUED) The funded status and actuarial present value of benefit obligations of the defined benefit plans were (in millions):

(1) AMR's funding policy is to make contributions equal to, or in excess of, the minimum funding requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. Plan assets consist primarily of government and corporate debt securities, marketable equity securities, and money market and mutual fund shares, of which approximately $141 million and $99 million of plan assets at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively, were invested in shares of mutual funds managed by a subsidiary of AMR. The projected benefit obligation was calculated using weighted average discount rates of 8.75%, 7.50% and 9.00% at December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively; rates of increase for compensation of 4.40% at December 31, 1994 and 1993, and 4.90% at December 31, 1992; and the 1983 Group Annuity Mortality Table. The weighted average expected long-term rate of return on assets was 9.50% in 1994, 10.50% in 1993 and 11.25% in 1992. The vested benefit obligation and plan assets at fair value at December 31, 1994, for plans whose benefits are guaranteed by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation were $3.2 billion and $3.3 billion, respectively. 47 49 10. RETIREMENT BENEFITS (CONTINUED) In addition to pension benefits, other postretirement benefits, including certain health care and life insurance benefits, are also provided to retired employees. The amount of health care benefits is limited to lifetime maximums as outlined in the plan. Substantially all employees of American and employees of certain other subsidiaries may become eligible for these benefits if they satisfy eligibility requirements during their working lives. Certain employee groups make contributions toward funding a portion of their retiree health care benefits during their working lives. AMR funds benefits as incurred and began, effective January 1993, to match employee prefunding. Effective January 1, 1992, AMR adopted FAS 106, changing the method of accounting for these benefits. Prior to 1992, other postretirement benefit expense was recognized by expensing health care claims incurred and annual life insurance premiums. The cumulative effect of adopting FAS 106 as of January 1, 1992, was a charge of $917 million ($595 million after tax, or $7.95 per share). Net other postretirement benefit cost was (in millions):
Year Ended December 31, ----------------------------------------------- 1994 1993 1992 ---- ---- ---- Service cost - benefits earned during the period $ 62 $ 47 $ 43 Interest cost on accumulated other postretirement benefit obligation 87 87 83 Return on assets (1) - - Net amortization and deferral (4) (4) - ---- ---- ---- Net other postretirement benefit cost $144 $130 $126 ==== ==== ====
In addition to net other postretirement benefit cost, in late 1994, AMR offered early retirement programs to select groups of employees as part of its restructuring efforts. In accordance with FAS 106, AMR recognized additional other postretirement benefit expense of $71 million associated with these programs. Of this amount, $43 million was for special termination benefits and $28 million was for the net actuarial loss resulting from the early retirements. The funded status of the plan, reconciled to the accrued other postretirement benefit cost recognized in AMR's balance sheet, was (in millions):
December 31, ---------------------------- 1994 1993 ------ ------ Retirees $ 542 $ 381 Fully eligible active plan participants 207 306 Other active plan participants 429 522 ------ ------ Accumulated other postretirement benefit obligation 1,178 1,209 Plan assets at fair value 14 7 ------ ------ Accumulated other postretirement benefit obligation in excess of plan assets 1,164 1,202 Unrecognized net loss - (207) Unrecognized prior service benefit 90 95 ------ ------ Accrued other postretirement benefit cost $1,254 $1,090 ====== ======
48 50 10. RETIREMENT BENEFITS (CONTINUED) Plan assets consist primarily of shares of a mutual fund managed by a subsidiary of AMR. For 1994, future benefit costs were estimated assuming per capita cost of covered medical benefits would increase at a nine percent annual rate, decreasing gradually to a 4 percent annual growth rate in 2000 and thereafter. A one percent increase in this annual trend rate would have increased the accumulated other postretirement benefit obligation at December 31, 1994, by approximately $100 million and 1994 other postretirement benefit cost by approximately $19 million. In 1993, future benefit costs were estimated assuming per capita cost of covered medical benefits would increase at an 11 percent annual rate, decreasing gradually to a 4 percent annual growth rate in 2000 and thereafter. The weighted average discount rate used in estimating the accumulated other postretirement benefit obligation was 8.75% and 7.50% at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. 11. RESTRUCTURING COSTS In 1994, the Company recorded $278 million for restructuring costs which included (in millions): Special termination benefits: Pension $ 120 Other postretirement benefits 43 Actuarial losses: Pension 34 Other postretirement benefits 28 ------ Total cost of early retirement programs 225 Severance 28 Other 25 ------ $ 278 ======
Approximately 1,700 agents and 600 management employees elected early retirement under programs offered to select groups of employees and will leave the Company's workforce during 1995. Cash payments associated with the early retirement programs will be expended as required for funding the appropriate pension and other postretirement benefit plans in future years. The $28 million severance provision is for additional workforce reductions affecting approximately 2,300 agent and management personnel as a result of scheduled service reductions and improved administrative efficiencies. Cash outlays for severance payments are expected to occur substantially during 1995. The remaining $25 million included in the restructuring costs represents provisions for excess leased facilities and other restructuring activities. Cash outlays of approximately $18 million are expected to occur over the remaining lease terms. 49 51 12. REVENUE AND OTHER EXPENSE ITEMS During 1994, the Company changed its estimate of the usage patterns of miles awarded by participating companies in American's AAdvantage frequent flyer program. The positive impact of the change in estimate on passenger revenues for 1994 was $59 million. Passenger revenues for 1993 include a $115 million positive adjustment resulting from a change in estimate relating to certain earned passenger revenues. Miscellaneous - net in 1994 includes a $25 million charge related to the loss of two regional aircraft operated by subsidiaries of AMR Eagle, Inc. Miscellaneous - net in 1993 and 1992 includes provisions of $71 million and $165 million, respectively, for losses associated with a reservations system project and resolution of related litigation. Also included in 1993 is a $125 million charge related to the retirement of certain McDonnell Douglas DC-10 aircraft. Also included in Miscellaneous - net for 1992 are charges aggregating $25 million for a cash payment representing American's share of a multi-carrier antitrust settlement and the retirement of certain regional aircraft. 13.

NOW, THEREFORE, in exchange for good and valuable consideration the sufficiency of which is hereby agreed, the Corporation and Employee agree as follows. * * * Section 1. For purposes of this Guaranty, the following terms will have the meanings set forth below. Award FMV means the number of shares of Stock which vest upon the Employee's Retirement multiplied by the Fair Market Value of the Corporation's common stock, $1.00 par value per share, on the date such shares of Stock vest. Final Average Salary means the average annual salary used for purposes of computing the Employee's benefit under the qualified pension plan of the applicable Subsidiary or Affiliate. Guaranty Amount means the Final Average Salary multiplied by 3.5, provided the Employee has been granted, in the aggregate, a number of shares of stock pursuant to the Agreements (the "Award Number") which is at least equal to the target number (the "Target Number") as may be established by the Board or any committee thereof. Should the Employee's Award Number be less 3 than the Target Number the Guaranty Amount will be the Employee's Final Average Salary multiplied by 3.5 and further multiplied by a fraction where the numerator is the Award Number and the denominator is the Target Number. * Section 2. In the event the Award vests in accordance with Section 2 of the Agreements, the Employee will be entitled to a supplemental payment in cash (subject to any applicable effective deferral), if, and to the extent that, on the date of the vesting of the Award, the Award FMV is less than Guaranty Amount. The supplemental payment, if any, will be equal to the difference between the Guaranty Amount and the Award FMV. Provided, however, that if the Employee elects an Early Retirement from a Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Corporation, the amount of the supplemental payment (as computed pursuant to this Section 2) will be multiplied the factor corresponding to the Employee's age at Early Retirement, as follows:
Age Factor --- ------ 55 .85 56 .88 57 .91 58 .94 59 .97
* Section 3. This Guaranty will only be applicable in the event of the Employee's Retirement from a Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Corporation. This Guaranty will not be applicable, and is not intended to apply, in the event the Employee's employment with a Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Corporation is terminated for Cause, not for Cause, by reason of death, Disability or any other reason whatsoever. * Section 4. This Guaranty (a) shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successor of the Corporation, (b) shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas and any applicable laws of the United States, and (c) may not be amended without the written consent of both the Corporation and the Employee. No contract or right of employment shall be implied by this Guaranty. 4 * Section 5. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth for such terms in the Corporation's l988 Long Term Incentive Plan. * * * EMPLOYEE AMR CORPORATION _____________________________ By: _____________________ Charles D.

"Calculated Amortization for Operating Leases" is defined as the present value, at inception, of operating lease rental payments, amortized over the life of the lease, using the effective interest method. -2- 3 "Affiliate" is defined as a subsidiary of AMR or any entity that is designated by the Board as a participating employer under the Plan, provided that AMR directly or indirectly owns at least 20% of the combined voting power of all classes of stock of such entity. "Set Aside ROI" is defined as 8.0% for a relative rank among the Comparison Airlines of first through fourth and 9.0% for fifth. "Set Aside" is defined as the Adjusted Investment (currently $16.4 billion) multiplied by the Set Aside ROI. Eligibility for Participation In order to be eligible to participate in the Plan, an individual must be an officer or key employee of American who has been employed by an AMR company for at least three consecutive months during the Plan year. The three months service requirement may be waived by the Committee in cases of mandatory retirement prior to completing three months of service. During a Plan year, individuals with less than twelve months eligibility in the Plan may be eligible to participate in the Plan on a pro rata basis, at the discretion of the Committee. In addition, the Committee, in its discretion, may permit participation by officers and key employees of Affiliates who have been so employed by the Affiliate for at least three consecutive months during the Plan year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, an officer or key employee will not be eligible to participate in the Plan if such officer or key employee is, at the same time, eligible to participate in a commission, incentive, profit sharing or other bonus compensation program sponsored by American or an Affiliate, unless the Committee otherwise decides. In general, this Plan includes all American employees Level 5 and above, Level 4 General Managers, and Pilot management Levels 6 - 8 (in lieu of their participation in the Pilot variable compensation program). Currently, this plan covers approximately 1,100 employees. The Committee reserves the right to include or exclude any employee from the Plan at its discretion. In order to receive an award under the Plan, an individual must satisfy the aforementioned eligibility requirements and must be an employee of American or an Affiliate at the time an award under the Plan is paid. If at the time awards are paid under the Plan, an individual has retired from American or an Affiliate (including accepting the 1994 Voluntary Early Retirement Program), is disabled, or has died, the award which the individual otherwise would have received under the Plan but for such retirement, disability, or death may be paid to the individual, or his/her estate in the event of death, at the discretion of the -3- 4 Committee. Employees who have been terminated before the plan payout date (including layoff) will not be eligible for awards. The Incentive Compensation Fund (a) As ROI exceeds the Set Aside ROI, a percentage of Plan Earnings in excess of the Set Aside will be allocated to the Fund. (b) Target ROI varies from 10.0% - 14.0% depending upon ROI rank among the Comparison Airlines. At target ROI, the fund will accumulate to a size that would enable target percentages of Qualified Earnings payouts for all covered employees. (c) If ROI at the appropriate competitive rank equals or exceeds the Set Aside ROI specified for such rank, the Fund will accumulate at the fund accumulation rate. If ROI at such competitive rank exceeds the target ROI set forth below with respect to such rank, the Fund will continue to accumulate, but at the incremental accumulation rate specified below:
American's Fund Incremental Competitive Accumulation Accumulation Comparison Rank ROI Rate(1) Rate(2) Airlines ---- --- ------- ------- -------- Set Aside/Target 1 8.0 -10.0% 4.82% 2.59% Delta 2 8.0 -11.0 3.21 2.08 United 3 8.0 -12.0 2.41 1.74 USAir 4 8.0 -13.0 1.93 1.45 Southwest 5 9.0 -14.0 1.93 1.17
(d) The fund accumulation and incremental accumulation rates (set forth above) may be modified by the Committee in the event the targeted headcount and salary numbers for the Plan year differ from actual headcount and salary numbers for the Plan year. In the event a modification is made by the Committee to such accumulation rates, the amount of the Fund may be changed, on a retroactive basis if necessary, as determined by the Committee in its discretion. Allocation of Individual Awards Individual awards under the Plan will be determined by the Committee (except as otherwise provided herein) based upon each participant's performance. _______________ (1) Stated as a percentage of Plan Earning in excess of the Set Aside. (2) Stated as a percentage of Plan earnings in excess of that level of Plan Earnings at the target ROI percentage. -4- 5 Unless the Committee otherwise decides, an award made under the Plan, in combination with any other award made under an incentive, commission, profit sharing or other bonus compensation program sponsored by American or an Affiliate may not, in the aggregate, exceed 100% of the participant's base salary. At the discretion of the Committee the Fund may not be fully distributed. In addition, the aggregate of all awards paid hereunder will not exceed the lesser of 2.1 times the target fund (subject to year end adjustment based on actual participant headcount and salaries) or 50% of total base salaries of all participants. Administration The Committee shall have authority to administer and interpret the Plan, establish administrative rules, approve eligible participants, and take any other action necessary for the proper operation of the Plan. In computing the Return on Investment of the Comparison Airlines, the Committee may include or exclude special or non-recurring items. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no awards will be made under the Plan unless awards are also made under the 1995 American Airlines Employees Profit Sharing Plan and the variable compensation program for members of the Allied Pilots Association (implemented in 1991). Awards to officers who serve on the Committee will be determined by the Chairman and approved by the Compensation/Nominating Committee of the Board of Directors. The Chairman's award shall be determined by the Compensation/Nominating Committee of the Board of Directors. The amount, if any, of the Fund shall be computed by the General Auditor of American based on a certification of ROI by American's independent auditors. A summary of awards under the Plan shall be provided to the Board of Directors at the first regular meeting following determination of the awards. Method of Payment The Committee will determine the method of payment of awards. Awards shall be paid as soon as practicable after audited financial statements for the year 1995 are available. Individuals, except retirees, may elect to defer their awards into a 401(k) plan established by American or AMR or into a deferred compensation program, if any, administered by American or AMR. General Neither this Plan nor any action taken hereunder shall be construed as giving any employee or participant the right to be retained in the employ of American or an Affiliate. -5- 6 Nothing in the Plan shall be deemed to give any employee any right, contractually or otherwise, to participate in the Plan or in any benefits hereunder, other than the right to receive payment of such incentive compensation as may have been expressly awarded by the Committee. In consideration of the employee's privilege to participate in the Plan, the employee agrees (i) not to disclose any trade secrets of, or other confidential/restricted information of, American, to any unauthorized party and, (ii) not to make any unauthorized use of such trade secrets or confidential or restricted information during his or her employment with American or after such employment is terminated, and (iii) not to solicit any current employees of American or any subsidiaries of AMR Corporation to join the employee at his or her new place of employment after his or her employment with American is terminated. The Board of Directors may amend, suspend, or terminate the plan at any time. -6- 7 1995 AA INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION CONFIDENTIAL : DO NOT DISTRIBUTE Target Award levels:

EX-10.(HHH) 8 1995 EMPLOYEE PROFIT SHARING PLAN 1 Exhibit 10(hhh) -1- 2 AMERICAN AIRLINES, INC. 1995 EMPLOYEE PROFIT SHARING PLAN Purpose The purpose of the 1995 American Airlines Employee Profit Sharing Plan ("Plan") is to provide participating employees with a sense of commitment to, and direct financial interest in, the success of American Airlines, Inc. ("American"). Definitions "Fund" is defined as the profit sharing fund, if any, accumulated in accordance with this plan. "Qualified Earnings" is defined as an employee's pensionable earnings less such income items as moving expenses and related benefits, disability payments, incentive or profit sharing awards paid in the Plan year and other awards and allowances. "Return on Investment" or "ROI" is defined as Plan Earnings divided by Adjusted Investment, stated as a percentage. "Plan Earnings" is defined as AMR Corporation's ("AMR") pretax income plus AMR's interest expense, plus any accruals for American's profit sharing and incentive compensation plans, plus aircraft rental expense, less Calculated Amortization for Operating Leases and less pretax income and interest expense attributable to AMR subsidiaries other than American. For purposes of such calculation, the AMR Incentive Compensation Committee ("Committee") may include or exclude from Plan Earnings special or non-recurring gains or losses at its discretion. "Adjusted Investment" is defined as AMR's Debt (as hereinafter defined) plus the present value of operating lease rental payments, plus AMR stockholders' equity, less stockholder's equity attributable to AMR subsidiaries other than American. "AMR's Debt" is defined as notes payable plus the current and non-current portions of both long-term debt and capital leases, less any long-term debt and capital leases relating to AMR subsidiaries other than American. "Calculated Amortization for Operating Leases" is defined as the present value, at inception, of operating lease rental payments, amortized over the life of the lease, using the effective interest method. -2- 3 "Affiliate" is defined as a subsidiary of AMR or any entity that is designated by the Board as a participating employer under the Plan, provided that AMR directly or indirectly owns at least 20% of the combined voting power of all classes of stock of such entity. "Set Aside" is defined as the Adjusted Investment (currently $16.4 billion) multiplied by 8%. Eligibility for Participation All full-time and part-time employees of American who worked during the Plan year are eligible to participate in the Plan after completing six consecutive months of service with any AMR companies. This six months is included in their eligible time worked under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, an employee will not be eligible to participate in the Plan if such employee is, at the same time, eligible to participate in : i) the 1995 American Airlines Incentive Compensation Plan for Officers and Key Employees, ii) the variable compensation program for members of the Allied Pilots Association (as implemented in 1991), iii) any incentive compensation, profit sharing, or other bonus plan implemented in 1995 for employees of any division of American, or iv) any incentive compensation, profit sharing, or other bonus plan sponsored by an Affiliate. In general, this Plan includes all American employees Level 4 and below, who are not covered by the plans described above. Currently, this Plan covers approximately 71,000 employees. Profit Sharing awards will be determined on a proportionate basis for participation in more than one plan. Employees who transfer from/to Affiliates or any other plan described above, and have been employed with any AMR companies for at least six consecutive months, will receive awards from each plan on a proportionate basis. In order to receive an award under the Plan, an individual must satisfy the aforementioned eligibility requirements and must be an employee of American or an Affiliate at the time an award under the Plan is paid. If at the time awards are paid under the Plan, an individual has retired from American or an Affiliate (including accepting the 1994 Voluntary Early Retirement Program), has been terminated without cause (i.e. layoff), is disabled, or has died, the award which -3- 4 the individual otherwise would have received under the Plan but for such retirement, termination, disability, or death may be paid to the individual, or his/her estate in the event of death, at the discretion of the Committee. The Profit Sharing Fund Performance will be measured by ROI and the fund will accumulated based on that performance. When ROI is above 8.0%, the Profit Sharing Plan will accumulate a percentage of Plan Earnings in excess of Set Aside (defined as "Incremental Plan Earnings") according to the rates shown below. However, once an ROI of 8.0% is achieved, the fund will be established at a minimum of $5 million to prevent minimal payments for full-time employees.
Rate of Fund accumulation as a % of ROI Incremental Plan Earnings ---- ------------------------- 8.0 - 11.0% 7% of Incr. Plan Earnings 11.0 - 13.0% 17% of Incr. Plan Earnings 13.0 - 18.0% 23% of Incr. Plan Earnings above 18.0% 30% of Incr. Plan Earnings
The size of the Fund will be determined according to the above stated rates and is not related to the number of employees covered. Award Distribution Domestic For domestic employees, individual awards under the Plan will be based on: 1) the amount of the Profit Sharing Fund, 2) the employee's hours worked during the Plan year, 3) the employee's total years of service, and 4) the employee's Qualified Earnings during the plan year. These factors are explained in a following paragraph. International A portion of the Fund will be allocated for international employees based on their proportion of factors 2, 3, and 4 in the paragraph above. This portion of the Fund will be set aside for distribution at the discretion of the appropriate Senior Vice President. -4- 5 Award Determination for Domestic Employees Individual domestic awards will be computed as follows: (a) Each eligible participant will receive an award equal to the product of 50 percent (50%) of the domestic Fund multiplied by the eligible participant's Hours Worked Percentage (as hereinafter defined). "Hours Worked Percentage" is defined as that percentage where the denominator is the sum of all hours worked during 1995 by eligible participants hereunder and the numerator is the actual number of hours worked during 1995 by each eligible participant. (b) Each eligible participant will receive an award equal to the product of 25 percent (25%) of the domestic Fund multiplied by the eligible participant's Years Worked Percentage (as hereinafter defined). "Years Worked Percentage" is defined as that percentage where the denominator is the sum of all years worked by eligible participants hereunder on behalf of American and the numerator is the number of years worked on behalf of American by each eligible participant. (c) Each eligible participant will receive an award equal to the product of 25 percent (25%) of the domestic Fund multiplied by the eligible participant's Qualified Earnings Percentage (as hereinafter defined). "Qualified Earnings Percentage" is defined as that percentage where the denominator is the sum of all 1994 Qualified Earnings of eligible participants hereunder and the numerator is the Qualified Earnings of each eligible participant. (d) Each individual award will be determined by adding the results of the computations of subparagraphs (a), (b) and (c) above. (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the discretion of the Committee, the Fund may not be fully distributed. In addition, and unless the Committee otherwise decides, an award made under the Plan, in combination with any other incentive, commission, profit sharing or other bonus award(s) made under another plan of an Affiliate, may not, in the aggregate, exceed 100% of the recipient's base salary, without the approval of the Committee. Administration The Plan will be administered by a Committee comprised of officers of American appointed by the Chairman of AMR. The Committee will have authority to -5- 6 administer and interpret the Plan, establish administrative rules, determine eligibility and take any other action necessary for the proper and efficient operation of the Plan. The amount, if any, of the Fund shall be computed by the General Auditor of American based on a certification of ROI by American's independent auditors. A summary of awards under the Plan shall be provided to the Board of Directors at the first regular meeting following determination of the awards. Method of Payment The Committee shall determine the method of payment of awards. Awards shall be paid as soon as practicable after audited financial statements for the year 1995 are available. Individuals, except retirees, may elect to defer their awards into the 401(k) plan established by American. General Neither this Plan nor any action taken thereunder shall be construed as giving to any employee or participant the right to be retained in the employ of American or any Affiliate. Nothing in the Plan shall be deemed to give any employee any right, contractually or otherwise, to participate in the Plan or in any benefits thereunder, other than the right to receive payment of such award as may have been expressly determined by the Committee. In consideration of the employee's privilege to participate in the Plan, the employee agrees (i) not to disclose any trade secrets of, or other confidential/restricted information of, American, to any unauthorized party and, (ii) not to make any unauthorized use of such trade secrets or confidential or restricted information during his or her employment with American or after such employment is terminated, and (iii) not to solicit any current employees of American or any subsidiaries of AMR Corporation to join the employee at his or her new place of employment after his or her employment with American is terminated. The Committee may amend, suspend, or terminate the Plan at any time. -6- 7 1995 AA PROFIT SHARING PLAN SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION Plan vs. Target Since the performance measurement for this Plan is investment market based rather than plan (budget) based, target payouts are not necessarily reached when the Company achieves planned performance.

Article Subject ------- ------- I Definitions II Benefits III Payments of Benefits IV Amendment and Termination V General Conditions VI Funding
1 4 SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PROGRAM OF AMERICAN AIRLINES, INC. PURPOSE This Plan provides supplemental pension benefits to the elected officers of American Airlines, Inc. The supplemental benefits consist of amounts in excess of the maximum pension benefits payable under a Participant's Base Plan and a retirement benefit based on a Participant's Incentive Compensation and Performance Returns.
