12,000,000 SHARES
HAWAIIAN AIRLINES, INC.
COMMON STOCK
------------------
Hawaiian Airlines, Inc., a Hawaii corporation (the "Company" or "Hawaiian
Airlines"), is distributing subscription rights ("Rights") entitling the holder
of each Right (a "Holder") to purchase one share of the Company's Common Stock,
par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), for $ (the "Subscription
Price") during a specified period. Of the Rights, approximately 8,150,000 (the
"Shareholder Rights") will be distributed to holders of record of shares of the
Common Stock as of the close of business on , 1996 (the "Record
Date"), other than Airline Investors Partnership, L.P. ("AIP"). In addition to
the Shareholder Rights, 600,000 Rights (the "Optionholder Rights") will be
distributed to holders as of the Record Date of options to purchase Common Stock
("Options") granted under the Company's 1994 Stock Option Plan (the "1994 Stock
Option Plan") and 1,000,000 Rights (the "Employee Rights") will be distributed
among the employees of the Company as of the Record Date who were also employees
at any time during 1995, other than members of senior management (the "Eligible
Employees"), PRO RATA based on each Eligible Employee's W-2 earnings from the
Company in 1995 relative to the aggregate W-2 earnings paid by the Company to
all Eligible Employees in 1995. Shareholders and holders of Options will be
entitled to one Right for each share of Common Stock held or subject to an
Option on the Record Date. The Employee Rights will also entitle the Holders
thereof who exercise their Employee Rights in full to subscribe for the shares
of Common Stock underlying Employee Rights that expire without being exercised
and up to 1,000,000 of the shares of Common Stock underlying Shareholder Rights
that expire without being exercised, subject to proration as described in "The
Rights Offering -- Employee Rights" (the "Oversubscription Privilege"). The
Rights will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York time, on , 1996, unless
extended by the Company (such date, as it may be extended on one or more
occasions, is referred to herein as the "Expiration Date"). The Shareholder
Rights will be transferable but the Optionholder Rights and the Employee Rights
cannot be transferred. The distribution of the Rights and the sale of shares of
Common Stock in connection therewith are collectively referred to herein as the
"Rights Offering." The shares of Common Stock underlying the Rights are referred
to herein as the "Rights Shares." See "The Rights Offering."
The Company, with the assistance of Jefferies & Company, Inc. ("Jefferies"
or the "Financial Advisor"), is currently negotiating the terms of stock
purchase agreements (the "Stock Purchase Agreements") with certain institutional
investors, high net worth individuals and non-employee directors and senior
management of the Company (each an "Investor," and collectively, the
"Investors") and expects to enter into Stock Purchase Agreements with such
Investors prior to the commencement of the Rights Offering. It is anticipated
that the Investors will severally agree to purchase from the Company at the
Subscription Price an aggregate of 2,250,000 shares of Common Stock (the
"Committed Shares") and an additional number of shares of Common Stock (the
"Standby Shares") equal to the lesser of (i) the number of Rights Shares subject
to Rights that expire without being exercised and are not purchased pursuant to
the Oversubscription Privilege and (ii) shares. The Investors'
obligation to purchase the Committed Shares and the Standby Shares will be
subject to certain conditions, one of which will be that at least Rights
Shares be issued pursuant to the exercise of Rights, including Rights Shares
issued pursuant to the Oversubscription Privilege (the "Minimum Investor
Condition"). The sale of the Committed Shares and the Standby Shares to the
Investors, which will close immediately after the completion of the Rights
Offering, is referred to herein as the "Investor Offering." See "The Investor
Offering."
Application will be made to list the Rights Shares and the Committed Shares
on the American Stock Exchange (the "AMEX") and the Pacific Stock Exchange (the
"PSE"). The closing price of a share of Common Stock on the AMEX on May 29, 1996
was $5 5/8. There has been no prior market for the Rights. Application will be
made to list the Shareholder Rights on the AMEX and the PSE; however, no
assurances can be given that a market for the Shareholder Rights will develop
or, if a market develops, that such market will remain available throughout the
Rights Offering.
Funds provided in payment of the Subscription Price will be held by Chemical
Mellon Shareholder Services, L.L.C. as the Subscription Agent, until the
issuance of the related Rights Shares, which in the case of Shareholder Rights
will occur promptly after exercise and in the case of Optionholder Rights and
Employee Rights will occur promptly following the Expiration Date. The exercise
of Rights is irrevocable once made, and no interest will be paid to Holders
exercising their Rights.

THE COMPANY
Hawaiian Airlines is the largest airline headquartered in Hawaii, based on
operating revenues of $346.9 million for 1995. The Company is engaged primarily
in the scheduled transportation of passengers, cargo and mail over a route
system that services the six major islands of the State of Hawaii
("Interisland") and Las Vegas and four key U.S. West Coast gateway cities, Los
Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle and Portland ("Transpac"). In addition, Hawaiian
Airlines provides the only direct service from Hawaii to Pago Pago, American
Samoa and Papeete, Tahiti ("Southpac"). The Company also provides charter
service from Honolulu to Las Vegas ("Charter"). Hawaiian Airlines (i) is one of
two dominant Interisland air carriers in Hawaii, (ii) is the third largest air
carrier between the U.S. mainland and Hawaii based on 3.17 billion scheduled
revenue passenger miles ("RPMs") in 1995, (iii) has one of the highest load
factors in the United States with an overall scheduled load factor of 74.8% in
1995 and (iv) has, management believes, one of the lowest cost structures in the
industry. Furthermore, Hawaiian Airlines has been rated one of the ten best
airlines in the U.S. for five consecutive years in a national travel magazine
reader's poll on the basis of scheduling, punctuality, cabin comfort/service,
food and baggage handling. The Company operates a fleet of 13 DC-9-50 aircraft
and eight DC-10-10 aircraft (a ninth DC-10-10 aircraft is being used on a
temporary basis to permit the scheduled overhaul of six of the other DC-10s
during 1996).
The Company was incorporated in January 1929 under the laws of the Territory
of Hawaii. The Common Stock trades on the AMEX and the PSE under the symbol
"HA." The closing price of the Common Stock on the AMEX on May 29, 1996 was
$5 5/8. The Company's principal offices are located at 3375 Koapaka Street,
Suite G-350, Honolulu, Hawaii, 96819 and its telephone number is (808) 835-3700.

STRATEGIC REPOSITIONING
In late 1989, the Company was the subject of a leveraged acquisition by an
investor group. Due to a number of factors, including the Gulf War, a
significant economic recession and a major natural disaster (Hurricane Iniki),
the Company experienced severe financial difficulties during the early 1990's.
Over the past three years, a new management team has conducted a strategic
repositioning of Hawaiian Airlines designed to improve its overall operating and
financial performance. The primary objectives of this repositioning have been to
(i) control and reduce operating costs, (ii) restructure the Company's balance
sheet and obtain additional liquidity through a recapitalization, and (iii)
enhance the Company's operating revenues through strategic alliances and certain
other opportunities. Management believes that the strategic repositioning has
significantly improved the Company's operations, balance sheet and financial
performance by reducing aircraft and labor costs and providing additional
liquidity. Moreover, this repositioning has allowed the Company to eliminate its
historical dependence on ticket discounting to generate capital, and has allowed
management to focus on the pursuit and implementation of its long-term operating
strategy and the identification and pursuit of potential growth opportunities.
COST REDUCTION PROGRAMS
As part of its strategic repositioning, the Company has effected a number of
significant changes that have contributed to Hawaiian Airlines having,
management believes, one of the lowest operating costs per total available seat
mile ("CTASM") in the industry. Total available seat miles ("TASM") represents
the number of seats available for scheduled and charter service multiplied by
the number of miles those seats are flown.
REDUCED AIRCRAFT EXPENSE. In September 1994, the Company completed the
reconfiguration of its aircraft fleet by phasing out its DC-8, DHC-7 and L-1011
aircraft and leasing from American Airlines, Inc. ("American") lower cost and
more efficient used DC-10 aircraft for its Transpac, Southpac and Charter
operations. Furthermore, in conjunction with the January 1996 $20 million equity
infusion from AIP discussed below (the "AIP Investment"), the Company's
long-term lease agreement with American pursuant to which the Company leases six
of its DC-10 aircraft (the "Aircraft Lease Agreement") was amended to further
reduce costs. Under the Aircraft Lease Agreement, American maintains the
Company's entire DC-10 fleet (consisting of the six aircraft leased under the
Aircraft Lease Agreement and three additional aircraft leased from American, two
of which are leased on a short-term basis) on a fixed rate per flight hour
basis. Although the Company incurred significant non-recurring expenses in 1994
due to the reconfiguration of its aircraft fleet, the Company estimates that, as
a result of the transition to DC-10 aircraft and the amendment to the Aircraft
Lease Agreement, cash outlays for aircraft rent, fuel, maintenance and
capitalized overhaul and spare parts from 1996 to 2000 will average
approximately $15.5 million per year less than would have been the case if the
Company had retained its old fleet, based on miles flown in 1995.
LABOR CONCESSIONS. Over the past several years the Company has also
obtained important concessions under the collective bargaining agreements with
its employees. In September 1993, the Company reached agreement with all
employee groups for revised labor agreements which resulted in cash savings of
approximately $10 million in 1994 and $10 million in 1995 and which, along with
other productivity improvement initiatives, are estimated to result in further
cash savings through 1999. Additional modifications to the labor agreements were
completed in conjunction with the AIP Investment in January 1996, which
modifications are estimated to result in cash operating expenses, before profit
sharing costs, for 1996, 1997, 1998 and 1999 being approximately $3.6 million,
$7.6 million, $8.0 million and $5.5 million less, respectively, than would
otherwise be the case, based on the Company's flight schedule as of June 1996.
In addition, the amendable dates of all of the Company's collective bargaining
agreements have been extended from February 1997 to February 2000.
As a result of these and other cost reduction efforts, the Company has
lowered its CTASM from $0.085 for the year ended December 31, 1993 to $0.075 for
the year ended December 31, 1995.

RECAPITALIZATION
In response to the financial difficulties experienced by the Company in the
early 1990s, Hawaiian Airlines voluntarily commenced a Chapter 11 bankruptcy
reorganization in September 1993. Pursuant to a consolidated Plan of
Reorganization dated September 21, 1993 and subsequently amended (the "Plan of
Reorganization"), the Company emerged from bankruptcy on September 12, 1994.
While the Plan of Reorganization allowed the Company to convert approximately
$205 million in unsecured obligations into equity and institute a number of cost
savings measures, including the significant restructuring and simplification of
its fleet of aircraft, Hawaiian Airlines emerged from bankruptcy with limited
liquidity. To address its on-going liquidity needs, during 1995 the Company
developed a plan to (i) secure an equity infusion from a private capital source,
(ii) restructure and improve its relationship with American and (iii) effect a
rights offering to its existing shareholders to provide further liquidity and
strength to its balance sheet.
RESTRUCTURING THE BALANCE SHEET AND OBTAINING ADDITIONAL LIQUIDITY. On
January 31, 1996 the Company achieved the first two of its liquidity enhancement
objectives through the completion of the AIP Investment, which consisted of
AIP's purchase of 18,181,818 shares of Common Stock (which represented 69% of
the outstanding Common Stock on May 17, 1996) for $20 million in cash, and the
amendment of the Aircraft Lease Agreement. This amendment accomplished a number
of objectives including the settling of certain lease and maintenance
obligations under the Aircraft Lease Agreement that became delinquent in
December 1994 and during the first quarter of 1995 and were then deferred by
American. These obligations were satisfied through the delivery of a six year
$10.25 million promissory note to American (the "American Note"). In addition,
American released a $2 million security deposit that was posted at the
commencement of the Aircraft Lease Agreement. In connection with these
arrangements with American, the Company issued to American's parent company, AMR
Corporation ("AMR"), warrants to purchase up to 1,897,946 shares of Common Stock
at $1.10 per share (the "AMR Warrants"). Half of the AMR Warrants are
immediately exercisable, but the balance will only be exercisable if American
and the Company enter into a code sharing agreement by January 1, 1997 regarding
the placement of the two letter flight designator code for American's flights on
the Company's Interisland flights. The purchase by Investors of Committed Shares
and Standby Shares may give rise to an increase in the number of AMR Warrants
and a decrease in the exercise price thereof pursuant to the anti-dilution
provision of the AMR Warrants, although the magnitude of these adjustments can
not be determined until after the Investor Offering is completed.
THE RIGHTS OFFERING. In recognition of the substantial dilutive effect of
the AIP Investment on the existing shareholders of the Company, AIP agreed to
use its best efforts to cause the Company, after completion of the AIP
Investment, to make a rights offering to the Company's shareholders other than
AIP. In addition to reducing the dilutive effect of the AIP Investment on the
other shareholders, the Rights Offering is intended to achieve the Company's
third liquidity enhancement objective by improving its working capital position
with the net proceeds of the Rights Offering.
ENHANCE OPERATING REVENUES
STRATEGIC ALLIANCES. The Company's relationship with American is a key
element in its operating strategy. In addition to the leasing and maintenance
services of its DC-10 aircraft, the Company is a participating carrier in
American's AAdvantager-Registered Trademark- frequent flyer program, which
allows travelers on Hawaiian Airlines to accrue mileage in the
AAdvantager-Registered Trademark- program. Moreover, the more than 32 million
AAdvantager-Registered Trademark- members may redeem their program miles for
travel on Hawaiian Airlines' flights. The Company also participates in
SABRE-Registered Trademark-, American's computerized reservations system, which
is used by more than 20 major travel providers in 70 countries. The Company,
working with FlyAAway-Registered Trademark- Vacations, the tour operations unit
of American, develops, markets and manages a line of package tours to all six
major Hawaiian islands. FlyAAway-Registered Trademark- Vacations is the world's
largest airline-owned tour operator.
On May 22, 1996, the Company entered into a cooperative marketing agreement
with Northwest Airlines, Inc. ("Northwest"), which provides for extensive
marketing cooperation, including a code
7
<PAGE>
sharing arrangement, coordinated airport customer service and frequent flyer
program cooperation. Under the code sharing arrangement, a Northwest flight code
will appear in travel agent computers on many of Hawaiian Airlines' flights
between Honolulu and several of the other destinations in the Hawaiian islands.
Northwest will coordinate its flight schedules to Honolulu to provide convenient
connections to the Company's Interisland flights.
The Company also signed a memorandum of understanding with Mahalo Air, Inc.
("Mahalo") in May 1996, pursuant to which the Company expects to be able to put
is flight code on Mahalo's five daily flights between Honolulu and Molokai
starting July 1, 1996. This would enable the Company to offer an expanded flight
schedule to Molokai without incurring expansion costs. The memorandum of
understanding also contemplates that the Company will provide certain airport
services to Mahalo. These arrangements are subject to the Company and Mahalo
reaching agreement on the terms of a definitive contract and no assurance can be
given that the parties will be able to agree on such terms.
REORGANIZED ROUTE STRUCTURE. Over the past three years, the Company has
adjusted its schedules between Honolulu and Los Angeles, San Francisco, Las
Vegas and American Samoa to maximize capacity and passenger load. In addition,
the Company has added non-stop service between Portland, Oregon and Honolulu. In
the Interisland market, the Company introduced its "Island Shuttle" service (the
"Island Shuttle") on August 1, 1993, with departures between Honolulu and Maui
every half hour and between Honolulu and Kauai every hour.
IMPROVED CUSTOMER SERVICE. The Company also continues to concentrate on
customer service, which it believes will have a positive effect on market share.
In recent years, the Company has achieved a number of significant operating
improvements, particularly with regard to on-time performance and reliability
and customer satisfaction.
LONG-TERM STRATEGY AND POTENTIAL GROWTH
Hawaiian Airlines is committed to becoming the first air carrier of choice
for travel to, from and among the Hawaiian Islands. The Company's strategy for
achieving this objective is based upon the following:
(i) INTERISLAND. Return the Company to its historic role as the leading
Interisland air carrier through (a) maintaining and improving its low cost
structure, (b) expanding its capacity and scheduling, particularly through
the Island Shuttle concept, and (c) forming strategic marketing agreements
with other air carriers, including the use of code sharing arrangements and
frequent flyer programs.
(ii) TRANSPAC. Expand its role as one of the major air carriers from its key
West Coast gateway cities through (a) maintaining and improving its position
as a low-cost scheduled carrier, (b) forming strategic marketing agreements
with other air carriers, including the use of code sharing arrangements and
frequent flyer programs, and (c) capitalizing on the unique "Hawaiian
Experience" provided by Hawaiian Airlines.
(iii) NICHE MARKETS. Dominate the local Hawaii market to Las Vegas in both
scheduled flights and charter service through maintaining and increasing its
scheduled and charter service.
(iv) SOUTHPAC. Maintain its dominant position in the Southpac market.
The Company also believes that it may have opportunities for continued
growth through (i) initiating direct service from its key West Coast gateway
cities to neighboring Hawaiian islands not currently served by the Company from
the West Coast, (ii) carrying passengers originating from other U.S. western and
southwestern cities through code sharing arrangements with regional mainland
carriers, (iii) carrying more passengers originating from Pacific Rim countries
such as Japan, South Korea and China by developing new or expanded relationships
with carriers based in Asia, (iv) securing joint marketing and strategic code
sharing relationships with other major and regional air carriers, (v) increasing
the utilization of the Company's existing assets by providing ground handling
and/or other services for other air carriers in Hawaii, (vi) capitalizing on the
increased
8
<PAGE>
business travel to Hawaii expected to result from the new Hawaii Convention
Center anticipated to open in Spring 1998, and (vii) increasing the scope of its
advertising strategy through cooperative marketing programs with other Hawaii
travel industry participants. However, no assurance can be given that the
Company will be able to effectively exploit any of the foregoing strategies or
opportunities.
RECENT OPERATING AND FINANCIAL RESULTS
As a result of its strategic repositioning, the Company's operating and
financial results improved substantially during the first quarter of 1996, which
has historically been the Company's weakest operating season. Hawaiian Airlines
recorded an operating profit of $396,000 during the first quarter of 1996, the
first such profit recorded in its first quarter since 1987. The positive
operating results represent the fourth consecutive quarter of operating profit
recorded by the Company.
Operating revenues increased 24.6% during the first quarter of 1996 to $94.1
million, as compared to $75.5 million during the same quarter in 1995. Operating
income (loss) improved from a loss of $7.4 million for the first quarter of 1995
to income of $396,000 during the first quarter of 1996. Net loss also improved
from a loss of $8.3 million to a loss of $582,000 during the respective periods.
Available seat miles ("ASMs") and RPMs increased from 940 million and 680
million, respectively, during the first quarter of 1995 to 1.11 billion and 810
million, respectively, during the first quarter of 1996. Overall load factors
during the same periods were 72.4% and 72.8%, respectively. The Company's CTASM
for the first quarter of 1996 improved to $0.075 from a CTASM of $0.082 during
the first quarter of 1995.
The operating and net results for the first quarter of 1996 include
nonrecurring, noncash charges to earnings of $964,000, which were incurred
primarily in connection with the consummation of the AIP Investment. Excluding
the effect of these non-recurring charges, operating income for the quarter
would have been $1.4 million and net income for the quarter would have been
$382,000.
PURPOSE OF THE RIGHTS OFFERING AND USE OF PROCEEDS
The price paid by AIP for its shares of Common Stock in the AIP Investment
represented a substantial discount from the market price of the Common Stock at
the time that AIP made its offer to the Company. In recognition of the
substantial dilutive effect of the AIP Investment on the existing shareholders
of the Company, the investment agreement with AIP contained a provision in which
AIP agreed to use its best efforts to cause the Company, after the completion of
the AIP Investment, to make a rights offering to the Company's shareholders
(other than AIP) that would permit the shareholders to acquire shares of Common
Stock at a discount to the market price. In this way, the shareholders of the
Company, other than AIP, would have the opportunity to reduce the dilutive
effect of the AIP Investment on their equity investment in the Company.
In addition, the Rights Offering and the Investor Offering are intended to
raise a minimum of $25 million of gross proceeds as part of the Company's
on-going efforts to improve its liquidity. In establishing the size of the
Investor Offering, the Board of Directors consulted with the Financial Advisor
and management, and considered the Company's need for additional capital.
The Subscription Price will be established by the Board of Directors prior
to the commencement of the Rights Offering and will be equal to the greater of
(i) 70% of the average closing price of the Common Stock on the AMEX for a
period to be designated by the Board prior to the commencement of the Rights
Offering or (ii) $1.10.
If the Rights Offering and the Investor Offering are consummated, the gross
proceeds to the Company from the Rights Offering and the Investor Offering would
be approximately $35 million before payment of related fees and expenses
estimated to be $2.0 million. If the Investor Offering is not consummated
because the Minimum Investor Condition is not satisfied, the gross proceeds from
the Rights Offering would be less than $15 million and the related fees and
expenses would be reduced
9
<PAGE>
to an estimated $1.1 million. Management expects that the net proceeds will be
used to improve the Company's working capital position. If the Company
determines in the future that it is advantageous to prepay a portion of its
long-term debt prior to maturity, part of the net proceeds from the Rights
Offering and the Investor Offering could be used to fund such prepayment.
Pending such uses, the net proceeds will be invested in short-term,
interest-bearing securities.

<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Transferability of Rights.... The Shareholder Rights will be transferable and are expected
to be listed for trading on the AMEX and the PSE until the
close of business on the last trading day prior to the

prorated among the Holders based upon the number of
Shareholder Rights each has instructed the Subscription
Agent to sell during such period, irrespective of when
during such period the instructions are received by the
Subscription Agent.
There can be no assurance that the Subscription Agent will
be able to sell any Shareholder Rights for Holders, that any
market for Shareholder Rights will develop or that if such a
market develops how long it will continue.
Expiration Date.............. 5:00 p.m., New York time, on , 1996, unless extended
by the Company from time to time, provided that the
Expiration Date shall not be later than , 1996

extensions of the Expiration Date in order to permit
adequate disclosure to Holders of information concerning
such event.
Conditions to Exercise of
Optionholder Rights and
Employee Rights............. The Holder of an Optionholder Right or an Employee Right
will only be able to exercise such Right if such Holder (i)

Certificate") and forwarding such Subscription Certificate
to the Subscription Agent (or following the Guaranteed
Delivery Procedures, referred to below) on or prior to the
Expiration Date, together with payment in full of the
Subscription Price with respect to such Rights. If the mail
is used to forward Subscription Certificates, it is
recommended that insured, registered mail be used. The
exercise of a Right may not be revoked or amended. If time
does not permit a Holder of a Right to deliver its
Subscription Certificate to the Subscription Agent on or
before the Expiration Date, such Holder should make use of
the Guaranteed Delivery Procedures described under "The
Rights Offering -- Exercise of Rights."
THE EXERCISE OF RIGHTS IS IRREVOCABLE ONCE MADE, AND RIGHTS
SHARES RELATING TO OPTIONHOLDER RIGHTS AND EMPLOYEE RIGHTS
WILL NOT BE ISSUED UNTIL AFTER THE EXPIRATION DATE. NO
INTEREST WILL BE PAID ON THE MONEY DELIVERED IN PAYMENT OF
THE SUBSCRIPTION PRICE.

the funds paid thereby may take at least five business days
to clear. Accordingly, Holders who wish to pay the

of the fair market value of the underlying Rights Shares on
that date over the Subscription Price. This amount will be
subject to applicable withholding. See "Certain Federal
Income Tax Consequences -- Optionholder Rights and Employee
Rights."
As a condition to the exercise of Optionholder Rights or
Employee Rights, the Holder thereof must pay to the Company
the "Withholding Amount," which will equal (i) 0.

Rights Shares being subscribed for (including pursuant to
the Oversubscription Privilege). To the extent that a
Holder's Oversubscription Privilege is not fulfilled due to
proration, the related Withholding Amount will be returned
by mail as soon as practicable, without interest.

12
<PAGE>
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
THE WITHHOLDING AMOUNT MUST BE RECEIVED BY THE COMPANY ON OR
BEFORE THE EXPIRATION DATE. FAILURE OF A HOLDER TO PAY THE
FULL WITHHOLDING AMOUNT IN A TIMELY MANNER WILL VOID THE
EXERCISE OF THE RIGHTS BEING EXERCISED AND THE SUBSCRIPTION
PRICE WILL BE RETURNED TO THE HOLDER, WITHOUT INTEREST.
Rights Held by Company
Plans....................... The Shareholder Rights distributed with respect to the
Common Stock owned by the Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. 401(k)
Plan for Flight Attendants, the Hawaiian Airlines, Inc.

Rights on their behalf, should contact the appropriate
institution or nominee and request it to effect the
transactions for them.

exercise of Shareholder Rights will be delivered to the
Holder of such Rights as soon as practicable after such
Rights are validly exercised. Certificates representing
Rights Shares issuable upon exercise of Optionholder Rights

THE INVESTOR OFFERING
The Company, with the assistance of the Financial Advisor, is currently
negotiating the terms of Stock Purchase Agreements with the Investors (who are
certain institutional investors, high net worth individuals and non-employee
directors and members of senior management of the Company) and expects to enter
into Stock Purchase Agreements with such Investors prior to the commencement of
the Rights Offering. It is anticipated that the Investors will severally agree,
subject to certain conditions, to purchase from the Company at the Subscription
Price the 2,250,000 Committed Shares and the Standby Shares. The number of
Standby Shares will equal the lesser of (i) the number of Rights Shares subject
to Rights that expire without being exercised and are not purchased pursuant to
the Oversubscription Privilege and (ii) shares. The Investor Offering will
close immediately after the completion of the Rights Offering. Among the
conditions to the Investors' obligation to purchase the Committed Shares and the
Standby Shares will be the Minimum Investor Condition (I.E., the requirement
that at least Rights Shares be issued pursuant to the exercise of Rights
(including Rights Shares issued pursuant to the Oversubscription Privilege)),
which is the number of Rights Shares that will result in receipt of $15 million
of gross proceeds by the Company. See "The Investor Offering."
CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES
See "Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences" for a discussion of certain
tax consequences that should be considered in connection with the Rights
Offering.
RISK FACTORS
The purchase of Rights and the purchase of Common Stock in the Rights
Offering and the Investor Offering involve investment risks relating to the
Company, to the airline industry in general and to the Rights Offering.
Investors are urged to read and consider carefully the information set forth
under the heading "Risk Factors."
NEITHER THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY NOR THE FINANCIAL ADVISOR
MAKES ANY RECOMMENDATION TO HOLDERS WITH RESPECT TO WHETHER A HOLDER SHOULD
EXERCISE RIGHTS TO PURCHASE SHARES OF THE COMMON STOCK PURSUANT TO THE RIGHTS
OFFERING, TO INVESTORS WITH RESPECT TO WHETHER AN INVESTOR SHOULD PURCHASE
SHARES OF THE COMMON STOCK, OR TO PERSONS WITH RESPECT TO WHETHER A PERSON
SHOULD PURCHASE RIGHTS.
- ------------------------
(1) Based on 26,285,000 shares outstanding on May 17, 1996. Does not give effect
to the issuance of the following shares of Common Stock reserved for
issuance: (i) 600,000 shares upon the exercise of Options granted under the
1994 Stock Option Plan; (ii) 1,897,946 shares upon the exercise of the AMR
Warrants; (iii) 1,576,367 shares upon the exercise of warrants held by
certain individuals (the "Reorganization Warrants"); (iv) 380,000 shares
under the Plan of Reorganization (see "Business -- Claims and Litigation");
and (v) 2,000,000 shares upon the exercise of options that may be granted
from time to time under the 1996 Stock Incentive Plan. The purchase by
Investors of Committed Shares and Standby Shares may give rise to an
increase in the number of AMR Warrants and Reorganization Warrants pursuant
to the anti-dilution provisions of the AMR Warrants and the Reorganization
Warrants, although the magnitude of these adjustments can not be determined
until after the Investor Offering is completed.

RISK FACTORS
IN MAKING AN INVESTMENT DECISION REGARDING THE RIGHTS OR THE COMMON STOCK,
INVESTORS SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING FACTORS IN ADDITION TO THOSE
DESCRIBED ELSEWHERE IN THIS PROSPECTUS. THE ORDER IN WHICH THESE CONSIDERATIONS
ARE PRESENTED SHOULD NOT BE INTERPRETED AS BEING INDICATIVE OF THEIR RELATIVE
IMPORTANCE TO PARTICULAR INVESTORS.
ABILITY OF COMPANY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN
In 1995, the Company reported an operating loss and net loss for the ninth
consecutive year. The independent auditors' report with respect to the Company's
1995 financial statements stated that the Company's recurring losses from
operations, working capital deficit and limited sources of additional liquidity
raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern. The financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31,
1995, were prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes continuity of
operations and realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the
ordinary course of business. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset
amounts, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be
necessary as a result of the outcome of future uncertainties. Management
recognizes that the continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent
upon the achievement of profitability, positive cash flow from operations and
the generation of adequate funds to meet its ongoing obligations. In the first
quarter of 1996, the Company increased its capital resources through the AIP
Investment and the related agreements with American and the Company's labor
unions. Nonetheless, at March 31, 1996 the Company had a working capital deficit
of $21.7 million. The Company continues to seek additional liquidity to improve
its working capital position through the Rights Offering and Investor Offering.
However, no assurance can be given that the Rights Offering and Investor
Offering will be successful or that the Company will be able to generate net
income in the future. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations" and the financial statements and notes
thereto presented elsewhere in this Prospectus.
LIMITED LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES; HIGH DEGREE OF FINANCIAL AND OPERATING
LEVERAGE
The Company emerged from bankruptcy in September 1994 with limited capital
resources. In January 1996, the Company was contemplating that it might have to
re-enter bankruptcy and halt operations if it could not complete the $20 million
AIP Investment, which was completed on January 31, 1996. Prior to the AIP
Investment, the Company's liquidity was limited to payment deferrals from
existing creditors such as American and promotional ticket sales. Although
promotional ticket sales increase current liquidity, they also increase air
traffic liability, which can adversely affect yields (fare levels) and revenues,
as well as liquidity in future periods. Although the AIP Investment and certain
related transactions have substantially increased the Company's capital
resources, the Company is seeking additional liquidity through the Rights
Offering, the Investor Offering and other sources in order to augment its
current and foreseeable capital resources. The Rights Offering and the Investor
Offering are intended to raise a minimum of $25 million of gross proceeds as
part of the Company's on-going efforts to improve its liquidity. However, there
can be no assurances that the Rights Offering and the Investor Offering will be
successfully completed. If the Minimum Investor Condition is not satisfied, the
Investor Offering would not be consummated and the maximum gross proceeds from
the Rights Offering would be $15 million. There can also be no assurances that
any Subsequent Offering could be completed. If the Company is unsuccessful in
obtaining additional sources of liquidity, an adverse change in events and
circumstances could result in the Company being unable to meet its financial
obligations after it exhausts its current and foreseeable capital resources.
Although the Company currently has no significant capital expenditure
commitments, the Company plans to make approximately $11.4 million of necessary
capital expenditures in the ordinary course of business in 1996. On April 29,
1996, the Company's credit facility provided by CIT Group/Credit Finance, Inc.
(the "Credit Facility") was amended to increase the borrowing capacity
thereunder from $8.2 million to $15.0 million. As of April 30, 1996, the Company
had $7.3 million of borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility. The Company's
access to other sources of debt financing is limited because it
17
<PAGE>
does not have any unencumbered assets. Moreover, there can be no assurances that
the Company can achieve or sustain profitable operations or, if necessary, that
sufficient additional financing can be obtained. See "Seasonality" below and
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations -- Liquidity and Capital Resources."
The degree to which the Company is leveraged could have adverse
consequences, including (i) the Company's ability to obtain additional financing
in the future for working capital, capital expenditures or other purposes is
limited, (ii) the Company's degree of leverage and related debt service
obligations, as well as its obligations under operating leases for aircraft, may
make it more vulnerable than some of its competitors in an economic downturn,
and (iii) the Company's financial position may restrict its ability to pursue
new business opportunities and limit its flexibility in responding to changing
business conditions. See Note 7 to the financial statements presented elsewhere
in this Prospectus.
As is characteristic of the airline industry, the Company is subject to a
high degree of financial and operating leverage. Due to high fixed costs, the
expenses of each flight do not vary proportionately with the number of
passengers carried, but the revenues generated from a particular flight are
directly related to the number of passengers carried. Accordingly, while a
decrease in the number of passengers carried would cause a corresponding
decrease in revenue (if not offset by higher fares), it may result in a
disproportionately greater decrease in profits and would adversely affect
liquidity.
COMPETITION
The Company faces substantial competition from other well-established
airlines that serve the same routes that the Company serves. The Company's
competitors on its Transpac routes, primarily United Airlines, Inc. ("United"),
Delta Airlines, Inc. ("Delta") and Northwest, and to a lesser extent Continental
Airlines, Inc. ("Continental") and American, are larger and have substantially
greater name recognition and resources than the Company. The Company believes
that Transpac competition is primarily based on fare levels, flight frequency,
on-time performance and reliability, name recognition, frequent flyer programs,
customer service and in-flight service. The Company also experiences competition
on its Transpac routes from various charter operators. Charter carriers'
competitive position is enhanced by contractual relationships with tour
operators. The Company's primary competitor on its Interisland routes is Aloha
Airlines, Inc. ("Aloha"), which has the leading market share in the Interisland
market and a marketing relationship with United (including a code sharing
arrangement and frequent flyer program participation). The Company believes that
Interisland competition is primarily based on fare levels, flight frequency,
on-time performance and reliability, name recognition, frequent flyer programs,
customer service and aircraft type.
The Airline Deregulation Act of 1978, recodified into the Transportation
Act, has substantially eliminated government authority to regulate domestic
routes and fares, and has increased the ability of airlines to compete with
respect to destination, flight frequencies and fares. Airline profit levels are
highly sensitive to adverse changes in fuel costs, average yield and passenger
demand. The emergence in recent years of several new carriers, typically with
low cost structures, has further increased the competitive pressures on U.S.
airlines. The only significant barriers to entry in the U.S. airline industry
are government licensing, the limited availability of flight slots, the need for
capital and an increased number of competitors. The commencement of service by
new carriers on the Company's routes could negatively impact the Company's
operating results. Competing airlines have, and may in the future, undercut the
Company's fares and increased capacity on routes beyond market demand in order
to increase their market shares. Such activity by other airlines could reduce
fares or passenger traffic to levels where the Company could not be both
competitive and profitable. Due to its smaller size and limited resources and
liquidity, the Company may be less able to withstand aggressive marketing
tactics or a prolonged fare war initiated by its competitors. Although the
domestic airline industry has at present abandoned deeply discounted general
pricing structures, and fare levels have continued to increase from 1992 levels,
significant industry-wide discounts could be reintroduced at
18
<PAGE>
any time. The introduction of broadly available, deeply discounted fares by a
major U.S. airline would result in lower yields for the entire industry and
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's operating results.
Recent announcements of capacity increases to Hawaii by domestic carriers
may affect pricing levels on the Company's Transpac routes. Charter carriers
have increased capacity from secondary markets in the western portion of the
United States and United has scheduled an additional 9,000 seats per week from
Japan and the U.S. mainland, with the bulk of that capacity dedicated to its San
Francisco and Los Angeles routes. Subsequent announcements by United of direct
service from Los Angeles to Kona and Maui are believed to be in addition to the
9,000 seats mentioned above. The increasing presence of charter carriers and
United's expanded capacity are examples of the competitive pricing and capacity
issues facing the Company in the future. Management is not able to predict the
impact of these competitive pressures on the Company's operations.
See "Business -- Competition."
AIRLINE INDUSTRY CONDITIONS
The airline industry is a highly cyclical business with substantial
volatility. Airlines frequently experience short-term cash requirements caused
by both seasonal fluctuations in traffic, which often put a drain on cash during
off-peak periods, and other factors that are not necessarily seasonal, including
the extent and nature of price and other competition from other airlines,
changing levels of operations, national and international events, fuel prices
and general economic conditions, including inflation. Because a substantial
portion of airline travel is discretionary, the industry tends to experience
adverse financial results in general economic downturns. Accordingly, airlines
require substantial liquidity to sustain continued operations under most
conditions. See "Limited Liquidity and Capital Resources; High Degree of
Financial and Operating Leverage" above.
Since the commencement of deregulation in 1978, the U.S. airline industry
has become extremely competitive and volatile. Increased competition, rising
operational costs and pricing pressures have created financial difficulties for
most airlines leading to the U.S. airline industry having suffered unprecedented
losses in recent years. As a result, many airlines have been acquired or forced
to restructure (as was the case with the Company) or have ceased operations.
Although the industry is expected to have produced a profit for 1995, no
assurance can be given that this performance can be sustained in the future. The
Company has had a net loss in each of 1995 and the preceding eight years.
DEPENDENCE ON HAWAIIAN TOURISM
Since the Company's operations are limited almost exclusively to flights to,
from and among, the Hawaiian Islands, the Company's profitability is linked to
the number of travelers to, from and among the Islands and a material reduction
in the number of such travelers would have a material adverse effect on the
Company's operations. Tourists constitute a majority of the travelers to Hawaii.
Because tourism levels are related to discretionary income, the level of
Hawaiian tourism is affected by the strength of the economies in the areas from
which tourists to Hawaii typically originate. Hawaiian tourism is also dependent
upon the popularity of Hawaii as a tourist destination and negative events such
as Hurricane Iniki and the availability of other tourist destinations and
opportunities could reduce tourist interest in Hawaii. In addition, from time to
time, various events such as the Persian Gulf War and industry-specific problems
such as strikes have had a negative impact on tourism in Hawaii. After reaching
its peak in 1990, the Hawaii tourism industry experienced three consecutive
years of decline. Although tourist counts have shown year over year improvements
in 1994 and 1995, local economists do not expect Hawaii tourism to return to
pre-1991 levels until 1997. No assurance can be given that the level of tourism
traffic to Hawaii will in fact return to such levels or that it will not decline
in the future. A decline in the level of Hawaii tourism traffic could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's operations.
19
<PAGE>
Preliminary results from the Hawaii Visitors Bureau indicate that of the
total number of visitors to Hawaii in 1995, approximately 40% came from Asia,
most of whom came from Japan, and approximately 19% came from California. In
recent years Japan and California have experienced the worst recession each
region has experienced since the 1940s. As a result, the number of visitors from
Asia declined in 1992 and again 1993, and the number of visitors from California
declined in each of 1991, 1992 and 1993 and is still below the peak number in
1990. A substantial decline in the number of visitors from either Japan or
California could have a material adverse effect on the Company's operations.
See "Business -- The Hawaii Travel Market."
SEASONALITY
The Company's results are sensitive to seasonal and cyclical volatility
primarily due to seasonal leisure and holiday travel. Traffic levels are
typically lowest in the first quarter of the year with strong travel periods
during June, July, August and December. Because certain of the Company's costs
do not vary significantly regardless of traffic levels, such seasonality
substantially affects the Company's profitability and liquidity. See "Limited
Liquidity and Capital Resources; High Degree of Financial and Operating
Leverage" above.
AIRCRAFT OPERATIONS
FUEL COSTS. Fuel costs, which represent a significant portion of the
Company's operating costs (approximately 16% for 1995), are volatile. For
example, the Company's average fuel cost per gallon (excluding taxes) in the
first quarter of 1996 was 9.9% higher than its average fuel cost in the first
quarter of 1995. Fuel prices are influenced by, among other factors, economic
and political factors and events throughout the world and applicable fuel taxes,
and the Company can neither predict nor control near- or longer-term fuel
prices. Significant changes in fuel costs would materially affect the Company's
operating results. Furthermore, changes in fuel prices may have a greater impact
on the Company than certain of its Transpac competitors with more modern, fuel
efficient aircraft. See "Reliance on Third Parties" below and "Business --
Aircraft Fuel."
MAINTENANCE COSTS; AIRCRAFT AGE. Aircraft maintenance costs represent
another significant operating cost for the Company (approximately 17% for 1995)
that will increase as the Company's aircraft increase in age. The average age of
the Company's DC-10 aircraft is 23 years and its DC-9 aircraft is 18 years. The
Company intends to replace some or all of its existing aircraft with replacement
aircraft in the next decade in order to reduce maintenance costs and achieve
other operating efficiencies, although no assurance can be given that the
Company will have the capital necessary to replace such aircraft. See "Business
- -- Strategic Repositioning -- Enhance Operating Revenues -- Relationship with
American -- Aircraft Lease Agreements" and Note 13 to the financial statements
appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus.
LEASED AIRCRAFT. The Company owns two DC-9-50 aircraft and leases eleven
DC-9-50s and nine DC-10-10s pursuant to leases that expire at various times
between 1996 and 2004. Two of the DC-10s are leased from American pursuant to
short-term leases, which can be terminated by American on 30 days notice. In
order to maintain its current operations, the Company will need to renew its
leases as they expire or purchase or lease replacement aircraft and, if the
Company decides to expand operations, the Company will need to purchase or lease
additional aircraft. There can be no assurance that lease renewals, additional
aircraft leases or aircraft purchases will be available on favorable terms or
that the Company will have sufficient capital resources to lease or purchase
additional aircraft. See "Business -- Properties."
LIMITED FLEET. The Company's fleet consists of 22 aircraft (including one
DC-10 being used on a temporary basis to permit the scheduled overhaul of six of
the other DC-10s during 1996). In the event one or more of the Company's
aircraft were to be out of service, the Company may have difficulty completing
its scheduled or chartered service. Any interruption of service caused by the
unavailability
20
<PAGE>
of aircraft due to unscheduled servicing or repair or otherwise, or lack of
availability of substitute aircraft, could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's service, reputation and profitability. As is customary in the airline
industry, the Company does not have business interruption insurance.
RELIANCE ON THIRD PARTIES
The Company has entered into agreements with contractors, including
American, Northwest and certain other airlines, to provide certain facilities
and services required for its operations, including aircraft, reservations,
computer services, frequent flyer program, aircraft maintenance, passenger
processing, fuel, ground facilities, baggage and cargo handling and personnel
training. This reliance on third parties to provide services subjects the
Company to various risks, including the risk that such services could be
discontinued without adequate replacement services being available.
The Company leases all of its DC-10 aircraft from American. American
maintains these aircraft and the Company pays a minimum monthly charge for
maintenance services, monthly in arrears. During 1995, the Company incurred in
excess of $45 million of lease and maintenance payments to American. American
has the right to terminate its obligation to provide aircraft maintenance
services on and after January 1, 1999, upon 180 days prior notice. If American
terminated the maintenance arrangement, the Company would have to seek an
alternate source of maintenance service or maintain its DC-10s itself, and no
assurance can be given that the Company would be able to do so on a basis that
is as cost-effective as the American maintenance arrangement.
The Company participates in American's AAdvantage-Registered Trademark-
frequent flyer program and SABRE-Registered Trademark- reservation system, which
make the Company more competitive. The Company's participation in the
AAdvantage-Registered Trademark- program expires in 1997, subject to renewal,
and its participation in SABRE-Registered Trademark- expires in 2001. The
Company's inability to continue in these programs or participate in comparable
programs offered by other airlines could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's operations. See "Business -- Strategic Repositioning -- Increase
Operating Revenue -- Relationship with American."
The Company purchases almost all of its aviation fuel from Northwest without
mark-up pursuant to an agreement between the two companies, which provides that,
in case of shortages, Northwest will provide fuel to its own fleet first and
then a portion of the remaining fuel available will be allocated between the
Company and any other applicable airlines. The agreement is renewed
automatically on December 31 of each year unless canceled by either of the
parties with 90 days prior written notice. No assurance can be given that the
Company would be able to secure an adequate supply of fuel from alternate
sources if a fuel shortage were to cause the supply from Northwest to be
inadequate or if Northwest were to cancel the agreement. The Company paid
Northwest approximately $44.1 million, $43.9 million and $53.0 million for the
fuel supplied under this agreement in 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively. See
"Business -- Aircraft Fuel."
Approximately 74% of the Company's ticket sales are currently made by travel
agents, including wholesalers. Travel agents generally have a choice between one
or more airlines when booking a customer's flight. Accordingly, any effort by
travel agencies to favor another airline or to disfavor the Company could
adversely affect the Company. Although management intends to continue to offer
an attractive and competitive product to travel agencies and to maintain
favorable relations with travel agencies, there can be no assurance that travel
agencies will not disfavor the Company or favor other airlines in the future,
either of which could have an adverse effect on the Company's operations.
INSURANCE COVERAGE
The Company is exposed to potential losses that may be incurred in the event
of an aircraft accident. Any such accident could involve not only repair or
replacement of a damaged aircraft and its consequent temporary or permanent loss
of service, but also significant potential claims of injured passengers and
others. The Company is required by the U.S. Department of Transportation (the
"DOT") to carry liability insurance on each of its aircraft. The Company
currently maintains public liability insurance which management believes is
adequate and consistent with current industry
21
<PAGE>
practice. However, there can be no assurance that the amount of such coverage
will not be changed or that the Company will not bear substantial losses from
accidents. Substantial claims resulting from an accident in excess of related
insurance coverage could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
REGULATORY MATTERS; TICKET TAXES
As a certificated air carrier, Hawaiian Airlines is subject to the
regulatory jurisdiction of the DOT and the Federal Aviation Administration (the
"FAA"). To assure compliance with their regulations, the DOT and the FAA require
air carriers to obtain certain certificates, which may be suspended or revoked
for cause. The FAA also conducts safety audits and has the power to impose fines
and other sanctions for violations of aviation safety and security regulations.
Hawaiian Airlines, as are all airlines, is subject to inspections by the FAA in
the normal course of its business on an ongoing basis. In the last several
years, the FAA has issued to the airline industry a number of maintenance
directives and other regulations. The Company has incurred and expects to
continue to incur substantial expenditures for the purpose of complying with
these directives and regulations. See Note 13 to the financial statements
appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus.
Additional laws and regulations have been proposed from time to time that
could significantly increase the cost of airline operations by, for instance,
imposing additional requirements or restrictions on operations. Laws and
regulations also have been considered from time to time that would prohibit or
restrict the ownership and/or transfer of airline routes or takeoff and landing
slots. Also, the award of international routes to U.S. carriers (and their
retention) is regulated by treaties and related agreements between the United
States and foreign governments, which are amended from time to time. The Company
cannot predict what laws and regulations will be adopted or what changes to
international air transportation treaties will be effected, if any, or how they
will affect the Company.
Prior to 1996, the airline industry was subject to a 10% tax on each ticket
sold (other than Transpac flights), a 6.25% cargo excise tax and a $6
international departure tax (including Transpac flights). Efforts are underway
to encourage the United States Congress to re-enact legislation authorizing
these taxes. If these taxes are reinstated, the Company would either have to
absorb the taxes, which would adversely affect operating results, or raise
ticket prices and cargo transportation fees in order to offset the taxes. If the
Company were to raise ticket prices and cargo transportation fees, there is no
assurance that the Company would be able to maintain such increases or that
operating results would not be adversely affected by the increases.
See "Business -- Regulatory Matters."
LABOR AGREEMENTS
The majority of Hawaiian Airlines' employees are covered by collective
bargaining agreements, which are not amendable until February 2000, with the
International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers ("IAM"), the Air
Line Pilots Association, International ("ALPA"), the Association of Flight
Attendants ("AFA"), the Transport Workers Union ("TWU") and the Communications
Section Employees Union. As a result of the unionization of its employees, the
Company's flexibility in dealing with its employees may be restricted, thereby
resulting in an increase in costs. In the event of work stoppages or other labor
difficulties, operations of the Company may be hampered or halted, which could
have a material adverse effect on the reputation and operations of the Company.
See "Business -- Employees."
CONTROL OF THE COMPANY
AIP owned 69% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock as of May 17, 1996
and through such ownership is able to control all actions to be taken by the
shareholders of the Company, except in the limited case where Hawaii law
requires shareholder action to be approved by 75% of the outstanding Common
Stock. After giving effect to the issuance of approximately 16,500,000 shares of
Common Stock pursuant to (i) the Plan of Reorganization, (ii) the exercise in
full of the AMR Warrants and the Reorganization Warrants, (iii) the exercise in
full of the Options, (iv) the exercise in full of the Rights
22
<PAGE>
and (v) the consummation of the Investor Offering, AIP would own approximately
43% of the Common Stock. However, even at such time as sufficient shares of
Common Stock have been issued to cause AIP to hold less than 50% of the Common
Stock, its voting power would still be substantially greater than that of any
other existing shareholder. Pursuant to the Company's Amended Bylaws (the
"Bylaws"), until AIP ceases to own at least 35% of the Common Stock, it has the
right to nominate six of the 11 nominees to stand from time to time for election
as directors of the Company. If AIP's ownership of Common Stock were to fall
below 35%, its right to nominate directors would be reduced but would not be
eliminated until AIP's ownership was reduced below 5%. Thereafter, AIP will not
have the right to nominate individuals to the Board unless it reacquires at
least 5% of the Common Stock within 365 days. See "Principal Shareholders."
In addition, ALPA, IAM and AFA have the right, pursuant to their respective
collective bargaining agreements and the Bylaws, to nominate three of the
remaining five nominees to stand from time to time for election as directors,
thereby leaving the Board of Directors with the authority to nominate only two
of the director nominees. AIP has agreed to vote its shares of Common Stock in
favor of the labor unions' nominees.
Of the two positions on the Board of Directors as to which AIP and the labor
unions do not have the right to nominate nominees, (i) one is required to be an
outside director, defined as one who is not employed by the Company and is not
affiliated with the Company's labor unions, AIP or American, and (ii) the other
is required to be a senior management official of the Company.
For more information regarding the rights of AIP and the labor unions to
nominate directors, see "Principal Shareholders -- Control of the Board of
Directors" and "Description of Capital Stock -- Preferred Stock."
ANTITAKEOVER MATTERS
As a result of AIP's substantial ownership interest in the Common Stock, it
may be more difficult for a third party to acquire the Company. A potential
buyer would likely be deterred from any effort to acquire the Company absent the
consent of AIP or its participation in the transaction.
The Company is subject to Section 415-73 of the Hawaii Business Corporation
Act, which restricts mergers and consolidations. Subject to certain exceptions,
unless the Board of Directors and the holders of at least 75% of all the issued
and outstanding voting stock of the Company approve a merger or consolidation,
Section 415-73 prohibits such a transaction.
The Company's Amended Articles of Incorporation (the "Articles of
Incorporation") and the Bylaws include a number of provisions that may have the
effect of discouraging persons from pursuing non-negotiated takeover attempts.
These provisions include (i) a restriction on action by written consent of the
shareholders, unless such consent is unanimous, (ii) a prohibition on cumulative
voting, (iii) certain qualifications for directors and (iv) restrictions on the
filling of vacancies of directors.
The Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 2,000,000
shares of preferred stock by the Company with such preferences, rights and
restrictions as may be determined by the Board of Directors. Accordingly, the
Board of Directors may, without shareholder approval, issue preferred stock with
dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights that could adversely
affect the rights of holders of the Common Stock. The issuance of shares of
preferred stock may have the effect of rendering more difficult or discouraging
an acquisition of the Company or a change in control of the Company. See
"Description of Capital Stock -- Preferred Stock."
The Company has in place a shareholders' rights plan, which provides that,
subject to certain discretion of the Board of Directors, in the event that the
Company is acquired in certain transactions or in the event of certain
acquisitions of the Company's common stock that would cause the acquiror to own
more than 10% of the outstanding common stock, the Company (or the surviving
corporation in a merger in which the Company was not the survivor) would issue
to the Company's shareholders, other than the acquiror, additional shares of
common stock of the Company (or the survivor) at a
23
<PAGE>
discount, thereby substantially diluting the acquiror's interest. The AIP
Investment was expressly excluded from the application of the shareholders'
rights plan through an amendment to the plan adopted by the Board of Directors
at the time of the AIP Investment. See "Description of Capital Stock --
Shareholders' Rights Plan."
DIVIDENDS
The Company has not paid cash dividends on its common stock in the last
several years and has no plans to do so in the foreseeable future. The Company
intends to retain its earnings, if any, to finance the development and growth of
its business. Moreover, the Company is prohibited from paying dividends by the
terms of the Credit Facility. The American Note limits the Company's ability to
pay dividends. See "Price Range of Common Stock and Dividend Policy."
INVESTOR OFFERING
Following the Expiration Date, the Investors will purchase the Committed
Shares and the Standby Shares, if any, subject to the terms and conditions of
the Stock Purchase Agreements, including the Minimum Investor Condition.
However, no assurances can be given that all the terms and conditions of the
Stock Purchase Agreements will be satisfied. If such terms and conditions are
not satisfied, the Investors would not be obligated to purchase the Committed
Shares and the Standby Shares, thereby reducing the proceeds to the Company from
the transactions contemplated by this Prospectus. See "The Investor Offering."
DILUTION
Rights are being distributed to Eligible Employees, holders of Options and
holders of the Common Stock. To the extent that Rights are exercised by Eligible
Employees or holders of Options, shareholders will realize a dilution in their
percentage voting interest and ownership interest in future net earnings, if
any, of the Company. The Investor Offering will result in additional dilution.
To the extent that Rights are exercised by other shareholders, shareholders who
do not exercise their Rights in full will realize a dilution in their percentage
voting interest and ownership interest in future net earnings, if any, of the
Company. In addition, all shareholders will suffer a reduction in the net book
value per share of the shares of Common Stock held as a result of the issuance
of shares of Common Stock in the Rights Offering and the Investor Offering if
the Subscription Price is less than the net book value per share. As of March
31, 1996, there were 26,240,203 shares of Common Stock outstanding and the
Company's net book value was $1.85 per share (after adjustment to give effect to
the April 29, 1996 repurchase of shares of Common Stock and retirement of debt
held by the GPA Companies described under "Capitalization" and "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations --
Liquidity and Capital Resources -- Current Status"). The Company is not able to
predict the effect, if any, the Rights Offering and the Investor Offering will
have on the market price for the Common Stock. See "Market Considerations;
Volatility of Stock Price" below.
The Company currently has outstanding the Options and the Reorganization
Warrants, which are exercisable to purchase an aggregate of 2,176,367 shares of
Common Stock at exercise prices of $1.62 and $1.71 per share, respectively. In
addition, the AMR Warrants entitle AMR to purchase 1,897,946 shares of Common
Stock at $1.10 per share. Half of the AMR Warrants are immediately exercisable,
but the balance will only be exercisable if American and the Company enter into
a code sharing agreement by January 1, 1997 regarding the placement of the two
letter flight designator code for American's flights on the Company's
Interisland flights. The purchase by Investors of Committed Shares and Standby
Shares may give rise to an increase in the number of AMR Warrants and
Reorganization Warrants and a decrease in the exercise price thereof pursuant to
the anti-dilution provisions of the AMR Warrants and the Reorganization
Warrants, although the magnitude of these adjustments can not be determined
until after the Investor Offering is completed. Exercise of the Options, the AMR
Warrants or the Reorganization Warrants would further reduce a shareholder's
percentage voting and ownership interest and the net book value per share.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
The market price of the Common Stock could be adversely affected by the
availability of shares for future sale. Upon completion of the Rights Offering
and the Investor Offering and after giving effect to the issuance of
approximately 380,000 shares pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, there would
be approximately 38,665,000 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding. Of
these shares, approximately 19,883,000 would be freely transferable immediately
(subject to a 90-day holding period in the case of Rights Shares issued pursuant
to the exercise of Employee Rights and Rights Shares issued to certain large
shareholders). The remaining approximately 18,782,000 shares would be
"restricted securities" for purposes of the Securities Act and would be eligible
for resale at various times in the future, in each case subject to the volume
and manner of sale limitations of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. Of these
restricted shares, 18,181,818 shares are owned by AIP and will be transferable
after January 1998 but could be sold sooner pursuant to registration rights that
AIP received as part of the AIP Investment. These rights entitle AIP, on up to
two occasions, to require the Company to use its best efforts to register all or
any portion of AIP's shares under the Securities Act at the Company's expense.
In addition, if the Company registers any other shares of its common stock for
public sale under the Securities Act at any time prior to January 2006, AIP
would have the right to include shares in the registration.
In addition, there are currently up to 4,074,313 shares of Common Stock
reserved for issuance pursuant to the Options, the AMR Warrants and the
Reorganization Warrants. The number of AMR Warrants and Reorganization Warrants
may be increased in connection with the Investor Offering. See "Dilution" above.
AMR and the holders of the Reorganization Warrants have registration rights with
respect to the shares reserved for issuance upon exercise of their warrants.
These rights entitle AMR and the Reorganization Warrant holders, on up to two
occasions, to require the Company to use its best efforts to register all or any
portion of their warrant shares under the Securities Act at the Company's
expense. In addition, if the Company registers any other shares of its common
stock for public sale under the Securities Act, AMR and the holders of the
Reorganization Warrants would have the right to include warrant shares in the
registration. The rights of AMR and the Reorganization Warrant holders to
include warrant shares in a Company registration expire in September 2001 and
September 1999, respectively.
As of May 17, 1996, the Company's various 401(k) plans held an aggregate of
approximately 1,537,000 shares of Common Stock and will receive a corresponding
number of Shareholder Rights. It is anticipated that plan participants will
elect to sell at least a portion of these Rights rather than exercise them. In
addition, plan participants may elect to sell shares of Common Stock already
held by the plans in order to generate proceeds to pay the Subscription Price
for their Rights. Such sales, depending on the volume, could adversely affect
the trading prices of the Shareholder Rights and/or the Common Stock.
RESALE RESTRICTION ON EMPLOYEE RIGHTS SHARES AND OPTIONHOLDER RIGHTS SHARES
The Rights Shares issuable upon the exercise of Employee Rights (including
Rights Shares issuable pursuant to the Oversubscription Privilege) and
Optionholder Rights may not be transferred during the 90-day period following
the Expiration Date. As a result, during such period the holders of such Rights
Shares would not be able to take advantage of market conditions that they
believe warrant a sale of their Rights Shares.
MARKET CONSIDERATIONS; VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE
There can be no assurance that the market price of the Common Stock will not
fall below the Subscription Price or that, following the exercise of Rights or
purchase of the Committed Shares or Standby Shares, a Holder or Investor will be
able to sell shares acquired in the Rights Offering or the Investor Offering at
a price equal to or greater than the Subscription Price. The exercise of Rights
is irrevocable once made. Moreover, Rights Shares issued upon the exercise of
Optionholder Rights or Employee Rights (including Rights Shares issued pursuant
to the Oversubscription Privilege) can not be resold for 90 days after the
Expiration Date. Since the Company emerged from bankruptcy and the
25
<PAGE>
Common Stock recommenced trading on the AMEX and the PSE in June 1995, the price
range of the Common Stock has varied widely and the price of the Common Stock or
the Shareholder Rights may be subject to significant fluctuation in the future.
See "Price Range of Common Stock and Dividend Policy." There has been no prior
market for the Rights on either the AMEX or the PSE.
EFFECT OF RIGHTS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS ON THE COMPANY'S NET OPERATING LOSS
CARRYOVERS
The Company believes that substantially all of its net operating losses
("NOLs"), as computed for federal income tax purposes, are currently subject to
limitation under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Tax
and Net Operating Loss Considerations." In the event an ownership change (as
defined in Section 382) of the Company were to occur in the future, the ability
of the Company to utilize NOLs incurred prior to that ownership change could be
subject to additional limitations under Section 382. While the Company believes
that the exercise of Rights and consummation of the Stock Purchase Agreements
will not result in an ownership change of the Company for Section 382 purposes,
the exercise of Rights and consummation of the Stock Purchase Agreements,
combined with any other significant future transactions in the Company's equity,
could result in an ownership change of the Company, which in turn could increase
the future tax liabilities of the Company.
NEITHER THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY NOR THE FINANCIAL ADVISOR
MAKES ANY RECOMMENDATION TO HOLDERS WITH RESPECT TO WHETHER A HOLDER SHOULD
EXERCISE RIGHTS TO PURCHASE SHARES OF THE COMMON STOCK PURSUANT TO THE RIGHTS
OFFERING, TO INVESTORS WITH RESPECT TO WHETHER AN INVESTOR SHOULD PURCHASE
SHARES OF THE COMMON STOCK, OR TO PERSONS WITH RESPECT TO WHETHER A PERSON
SHOULD PURCHASE RIGHTS.
PURPOSE OF THE RIGHTS OFFERING AND USE OF PROCEEDS
PURPOSE OF THE RIGHTS OFFERING
The price paid by AIP for its shares of Common Stock in the AIP Investment
in January 1996 represented a substantial discount from the market price of the
Common Stock at the time that AIP made its offer to the Company. In recognition
of the substantial dilutive effect of the AIP Investment on the existing
shareholders of the Company, the investment agreement with AIP contained a
provision in which AIP agreed to use its best efforts to cause the Company,
after the completion of the AIP Investment, to make a rights offering to the
Company's shareholders (other than AIP) that would permit the shareholders to
acquire shares of Common Stock at a discount to the market price. In this way,
the shareholders of the Company, other than AIP, would have the opportunity to
reduce the dilutive effect of the AIP Investment on their equity investment in
the Company.
In addition, the Rights Offering and the Investor Offering are intended to
raise a minimum of $25 million of gross proceeds as part of the Company's
on-going efforts to improve its liquidity. In establishing the size of the
Investor Offering, the Board of Directors consulted with the Financial Advisor
and management, and considered the Company's need for additional capital.
The Subscription Price will be established by the Board of Directors prior
to the commencement of the Rights Offering and will be equal to the greater of
(i) 70% of the average closing price of the Common Stock on the AMEX for a
period to be designated by the Board or (ii) $1.10.
USE OF PROCEEDS
If the Rights Offering and the Investor Offering are consummated, the gross
proceeds to the Company from the Rights Offering and the Investor Offering would
be $35 million before payment of related fees and expenses estimated to be $2.0
million. If the Investor Offering is not consummated because the Minimum
Investor Condition is not satisfied, the gross proceeds from the Rights Offering
would be less than $15 million and the related fees and expenses would be
reduced to an estimated $1.1 million. Management expects that the net proceeds
will be used to improve the Company's working capital position. If the Company
determines in the future that it is advantageous to prepay a
26
<PAGE>
portion of its long-term debt prior to maturity, part of the net proceeds from
the Rights Offering and the Investor Offering could be used to fund such
prepayment. Pending such uses, the net proceeds will be invested in short-term,
interest-bearing securities.
THE RIGHTS OFFERING
SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS
Shareholders other than AIP will receive one Shareholder Right for each
share of Common Stock held on the Record Date. An aggregate of approximately
8,150,000 Shareholder Rights will be distributed. Holders are entitled to
purchase at the Subscription Price one share of Common Stock for each
Shareholder Right held. The Shareholder Rights will expire on the Expiration
Date. The Shareholder Rights will be transferable.
OPTIONHOLDER RIGHTS
Holders of Options will receive one Optionholder Right for each share of
Common Stock subject to an Option held on the Record Date. An aggregate of
600,000 Optionholder Rights will be distributed. Holders are entitled to
purchase at the Subscription Price one share of Common Stock for each
Optionholder Right held. The Optionholder Rights will expire on the Expiration
Date. The Holder of an Optionholder Right will only be able to exercise such
Right if such Holder (i) is an employee of the Company as of the Expiration Date
(or in the case of a Holder whose Options were received from an employee of the
Company, such employee is still employed by the Company as of the Expiration
Date), (ii) agrees not to sell any of the underlying Rights Shares during the
90-day period immediately following the Expiration Date and (iii) pays to the
Company, on or before the Expiration Date, the Withholding Amount. Any such
Holder who exercises a Right shall be deemed to have agreed to the 90-day resale
restriction described above. The Optionholder Rights will not be transferable
and the certificates evidencing such Rights will bear a legend to that effect.
Certificates evidencing Rights Shares issued upon the exercise of Optionholder
Rights will bear a legend that such Shares may not be transferred until after
the 90th day following the Expiration Date.
EMPLOYEE RIGHTS
The Eligible Employees (I.E., all employees of the Company, other than
members of senior management, who were employed at any time during 1995 and on
the Record Date) will receive an aggregate of 1,000,000 Employee Rights. The
Employee Rights will be distributed among the Eligible Employees PRO RATA based
on each Eligible Employee's W-2 earnings from the Company in 1995 relative to
the aggregate W-2 earnings paid by the Company to all Eligible Employees in
1995. Holders are entitled to purchase at the Subscription Price one share of
Common Stock for each Employee Right held. The Employee Rights will expire on
the Expiration Date. The Holder of an Employee Right will only be able to
exercise such Right if such Holder (i) is an employee of the Company as of the
Expiration Date, (ii) agrees not to sell the underlying Rights Share during the
90-day period following the Expiration Date and (iii) pays to the Company, on or
before the Expiration Date, the Withholding Amount. Any such Holder who
exercises a Right shall be deemed to have agreed to the 90-day resale
restriction described above. The Employee Rights will not be transferable and
the certificates evidencing such Rights will bear a legend to that effect.
Certificates evidencing Rights Shares issued upon the exercise of Employee
Rights will bear a legend that such Shares may not be transferred until after
the 90th day following the Expiration Date.
The Employee Rights will also entitle the Holders thereof to the
Oversubscription Privilege, pursuant to which such Holders who exercise their
Employee Rights in full will also be able to subscribe for the Rights Shares
underlying Employee Rights that expire without being exercised and up to
1,000,000 of the Rights Shares underlying Shareholder Rights that expire without
being exercised. If an insufficient number of Rights Shares is available to
satisfy all exercises of the Oversubscription Privilege, then the available
Rights Shares will be prorated among Holders who exercise the Oversubscription
Privilege based upon the respective number of Employee Rights of such
27
<PAGE>
Holders. Any funds received by the Subscription Agent from Holders with respect
to the Oversubscription Privilege that are not applied to the purchase of Rights
Shares due to proration will be returned by mail as soon as practicable, without
interest.
EXPIRATION DATE
The Rights will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York time, on , 1996,
unless extended by the Company from time to time. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Expiration Date in no event shall be later than , 1996, except
that the Company reserves the right to extend the exercise period on one or more
occasions if the Board of Directors determines that the occurrence of a material
event necessitates an amendment of the Registration Statement or recirculation
of this Prospectus, which forms a part thereof, in order to permit time for the
distribution of such information. After the Expiration Date, unexercised Rights
will be null and void. The Company will not be obligated to honor any purported
exercise of Rights received by the Subscription Agent after the Expiration Date,
regardless of when the documents relating to such exercise were sent, except
pursuant to the Guaranteed Delivery Procedures described below.
If the Company elects to extend the Expiration Date, it will issue a press
release to such effect not later than the first day on which the AMEX is open
for trading following the most recently announced Expiration Date. In the event
the Company elects to extend the Expiration Date by more than 14 calendar days,
it will, in addition, cause written notice of such extension to be promptly sent
to all Holders of record.
EXERCISE OF RIGHTS
Rights may be exercised by delivering to the Subscription Agent, on or prior
to 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the Expiration Date, the properly completed and
executed Subscription Certificate evidencing such Rights with any required
signatures guaranteed, together with payment in full of the Subscription Price
for each Right exercised (except as permitted pursuant to clause (iii) of the
next sentence). Such payment in full must be by: (i) check or bank draft drawn
upon a U.S. bank or postal, telegraphic or express money order payable to
Chemical Mellon Shareholder Services, L.L.C. as Subscription Agent; or (ii) wire
transfer of funds to the account maintained by the Subscription Agent for such
purpose at Chemical Bank, Account No. 323-213057, ABA No. 021-000-128,
Reorganization Department; or (iii) in the case of a Holder exercising
Optionholder Rights, the delivery of a promissory note to the Company in the
form described under "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions." Payment
of the Subscription Price will be deemed to have been received by the
Subscription Agent only upon (a) clearance of any uncertified check, (b) receipt
by the Subscription Agent of any certified check or bank draft drawn upon a
United States bank or of any postal, telegraphic or express money order, (c)
receipt of good funds in the Subscription Agent's account designated above, or
(d) receipt by the Company of the promissory note referred to in clause (iii) of
the preceding sentence.
IF PAYING BY UNCERTIFIED PERSONAL CHECK, PLEASE NOTE THAT THE FUNDS PAID
THEREBY MAY TAKE AT LEAST FIVE BUSINESS DAYS TO CLEAR. ACCORDINGLY, HOLDERS WHO
WISH TO PAY THE SUBSCRIPTION PRICE BY MEANS OF UNCERTIFIED PERSONAL CHECK ARE
URGED TO MAKE PAYMENT SUFFICIENTLY IN ADVANCE OF THE EXPIRATION DATE TO ENSURE
THAT SUCH PAYMENT IS RECEIVED AND CLEARS BY SUCH DATE AND ARE URGED TO CONSIDER
PAYMENT BY MEANS OF CERTIFIED OR CASHIER'S CHECK, MONEY ORDER OR WIRE TRANSFER
OF FUNDS.
In order to exercise an Optionholder Right or an Employee Right, the Holder
will also have to pay to the Company the Withholding Amount on or before the
Expiration Date. See "Payment of Withholding Amount Relating to Optionholder
Rights and Employee Rights" below.
The address to which the Subscription Certificates and payment of the
Subscription Price should be delivered is set forth below under "Subscription
Agent."
If a Holder wishes to exercise Rights, but time will not permit such Holder
to cause the Subscription Certificate or Subscription Certificates evidencing
such Rights to reach the Subscription Agent on or prior to the Expiration Date,
such Rights may nevertheless be exercised if all of the following conditions
(the "Guaranteed Delivery Procedures") are met:
28
<PAGE>
(i) such Holder has caused payment in full of the Subscription Price
for each Rights Share being subscribed for to be received (in the manner
set forth above) by the Subscription Agent on or prior to the Expiration
Date;
(ii) the Subscription Agent receives, on or prior to the Expiration
Date, a guaranteed notice (a "Notice of Guaranteed Delivery"),
substantially in the form provided with the Instructions as to Use of the
Company Subscription Certificates (the "Instructions") distributed with
the Subscription Certificates, from a member firm of a registered
national securities exchange or a member of the National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc., or from a commercial bank or trust company
having an office or correspondent in the United States (each, an
"Eligible Institution"), stating the name of the exercising Holder, the
number of Rights represented by the Subscription Certificate(s) held by
such exercising Holder, the number of Rights Shares being subscribed for
and guaranteeing the delivery to the Subscription Agent of any
Subscription Certificate(s) evidencing such Rights within three AMEX
trading days following the date of the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery; and
(iii) the properly completed Subscription Certificate(s), with any
required signatures guaranteed, is received by the Subscription Agent
within three AMEX trading days following the date of the Notice of
Guaranteed Delivery relating thereto. The Notice of Guaranteed Delivery
may be delivered to the Subscription Agent in the same manner as
Subscription Certificates at the addresses set forth above, or may be
transmitted to the Subscription Agent by facsimile transmission (telecopy
nos. (201) 296-4293 or (201) 296-4291). Additional copies of the form of
Notice of Guaranteed Delivery are available upon request from the
Information Agent, whose address and telephone numbers are set forth
under "Information Agent" below.
A Holder who holds shares of Common Stock for the account of others, such as
a broker, a trustee or a depository for securities, should notify the respective
beneficial owners of such shares as soon as possible to ascertain such
beneficial owner's intentions and to obtain instructions with respect to the
Rights. If the beneficial owner so instructs, the record holder of such Rights
should complete the Subscription Certificate and submit it to the Subscription
Agent with the proper payment. In addition, the beneficial owner of Common Stock
or Rights held through such a holder of record should contact the Holder and
request the Holder to effect transactions in accordance with the beneficial
owner's instructions.
Unless a Subscription Certificate (i) provides that the shares of Common
Stock to be issued pursuant to the exercise of Rights represented thereby are to
be delivered to the Holder or (ii) is submitted for the account of an Eligible
Institution, signatures on such Subscription Certificate must be guaranteed by
an Eligible Institution.
If either the number of Rights Shares being subscribed for is not specified
on the Subscription Certificate, or the amount delivered is not enough to pay
the Subscription Price for all Rights Shares stated to be subscribed for, the
number of Rights Shares subscribed for will be assumed to be the maximum amount
that could be subscribed for upon payment of such amount, after allowance for
the Subscription Price of any specified Rights Shares.
The Instructions accompanying the Subscription Certificates should be read
carefully and followed in detail. DO NOT SEND SUBSCRIPTION CERTIFICATES TO THE
COMPANY.
THE METHOD OF DELIVERY OF SUBSCRIPTION CERTIFICATES AND PAYMENT OF THE
SUBSCRIPTION PRICE TO THE SUBSCRIPTION AGENT WILL BE AT THE ELECTION AND RISK OF
THE RIGHTS HOLDER, BUT IF SENT BY MAIL IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT SUCH CERTIFICATES
AND PAYMENTS BE SENT BY REGISTERED MAIL, PROPERLY INSURED, WITH RETURN RECEIPT
REQUESTED, AND THAT A SUFFICIENT NUMBER OF DAYS BE ALLOWED TO ENSURE DELIVERY TO
THE SUBSCRIPTION AGENT AND CLEARANCE OF PAYMENT PRIOR TO 5:00 P.M., NEW YORK
TIME, ON THE EXPIRATION DATE. BECAUSE UNCERTIFIED PERSONAL CHECKS
29
<PAGE>
MAY TAKE AT LEAST FIVE BUSINESS DAYS TO CLEAR, RIGHTS HOLDERS ARE STRONGLY URGED
TO PAY, OR ARRANGE FOR PAYMENT, BY MEANS OF CERTIFIED OR CASHIER'S CHECK, MONEY
ORDER OR WIRE TRANSFER OF FUNDS.
All questions concerning the timeliness, validity, form and eligibility of
any exercise of Rights will be determined by the Company, whose determinations
will be final and binding. The Company, in its sole discretion, may waive any
defect or irregularity, or permit a defect or irregularity to be corrected
within such time as it may determine, or reject the purported exercise of any
Right. Subscriptions will not be deemed to have been received or accepted until
all irregularities have been waived or cured within such time as the Company
determines in its sole discretion. NEITHER THE COMPANY NOR THE SUBSCRIPTION
AGENT WILL BE UNDER ANY DUTY TO GIVE NOTIFICATION OF ANY DEFECT OR IRREGULARITY
IN CONNECTION WITH THE SUBMISSION OF SUBSCRIPTION CERTIFICATES OR INCUR ANY
LIABILITY FOR FAILURE TO GIVE SUCH NOTIFICATION.
Any questions or requests for assistance concerning the method of exercising
Rights or requests for additional copies of this Prospectus or the Instructions
or the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery should be directed to the Information Agent
whose address and telephone numbers are set forth under "Information Agent"
below.
NO REVOCATION
ONCE A HOLDER OF RIGHTS HAS EXERCISED THOSE RIGHTS, SUCH EXERCISE MAY NOT BE
REVOKED.
PAYMENT OF WITHHOLDING AMOUNT RELATING TO OPTIONHOLDER RIGHTS AND EMPLOYEE
RIGHTS
A Holder exercising Optionholder Rights or Employee Rights must pay to the
Company the Withholding Amount, which will equal (i) 0. multiplied by (ii)
$ multiplied by (iii) the number of Rights Shares being subscribed for
(including pursuant to the Oversubscription Privilege). The Withholding Amount
must be paid by check or cash (unless otherwise agreed to by the Company) and
must be received by the Company on or before the Expiration Date. To the extent
that a Holder's Oversubscription Privilege is not fulfilled due to proration,
the related Withholding Amount will be returned by mail as soon as practicable,
without interest.
The Withholding Amount must be sent to the following address:
Hawaiian Airlines, Inc.
3375 Koapaka Street, Suite G-350
Honolulu, Hawaii 96819
Attention: Accounting -- Payroll Department
FAILURE OF A HOLDER TO PAY THE FULL WITHHOLDING AMOUNT IN A TIMELY MANNER
WILL VOID THE EXERCISE OF THE RIGHTS BEING EXERCISED AND THE SUBSCRIPTION PRICE
WILL BE RETURNED TO THE HOLDER, WITHOUT INTEREST.
DO NOT SEND THE WITHHOLDING AMOUNT TO THE SUBSCRIPTION AGENT. THE
WITHHOLDING AMOUNT MUST BE SENT TO THE COMPANY.
FRACTIONAL SHARES
Fractional Rights will not be distributed by the Company and a Right may not
be exercised in part.
SPECIAL PROVISIONS REGARDING RIGHTS HELD BY STOCK PLANS
As shareholders of record as of the Record Date, the Hawaiian Airlines, Inc.
401(k) Plan for Flight Attendants, the Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. 401(k) Savings
Plan and the Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. Pilots 401(k) Plan (each a "Plan") will
receive Shareholder Rights. These Rights will be allocated by the Plan trustee
to the Plan accounts in which shares of Common Stock are held as of the Record
Date. Each Plan participant will then have the right to instruct the Plan
trustee regarding the sale or exercise of the Rights allocated to such
participant's account, including the liquidation of current investments in the
participants' Plan account to fund the Subscription Price.
30
<PAGE>
The trustee of the Plans will provide participants with instructions on how
to instruct the trustee to exercise Rights. Such instructions must be received
by the Plan trustee no later than 5:00 p.m., New York time, on ,
1996 (or such later date as shall be the sixth business day preceding the
Expiration Date), after which time the Plan trustee will use its best efforts to
sell any Rights as to which timely instructions have not been received.
Notwithstanding that the accounts of many participants in the Plans
currently hold fractional shares of Common Stock, the Rights distributed to the
Plans will be allocated by the Plan trustee among the various Plan accounts so
that each account will receive a number of Rights corresponding to the number of
whole shares of Common Stock held in such account. The Plan trustee will
aggregate the unallocated fractional Rights and use its best efforts to sell
such Rights and allocate the proceeds from the sale to the Plan accounts
otherwise entitled to such fractional Rights.
METHOD OF TRANSFERRING SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS
The Shareholder Rights are expected to be listed for trading on the AMEX and
the PSE and may be purchased or sold through usual investment channels,
including banks and brokers. Trading in Rights will cease on the close of
business on the business day preceding the Expiration Date.
The Shareholder Rights evidenced by a single Subscription Certificate may be
transferred in whole by endorsing the Subscription Certificate for transfer in
accordance with the accompanying instructions. A portion of the Rights evidenced
by a single Subscription Certificate may be transferred (but only in units to
purchase whole shares) by delivering to the Subscription Agent a Subscription
Certificate properly endorsed for transfer, with instructions to register such
portion of the Rights evidenced thereby in the name of the transferee (and to
issue a new Subscription Certificate to the transferee evidencing such
transferred Rights). In such event, a new Subscription Certificate evidencing
the balance of the Rights will be issued to the Holder or, if the Holder so
instructs, to an additional transferee.
The Shareholder Rights evidenced by a Subscription Certificate also may be
sold, in whole or in part (but only in units to purchase whole shares), through
the Subscription Agent by delivering to the Subscription Agent such Subscription
Certificate properly executed for sale by the Subscription Agent. If only a
portion of the Rights evidenced by a single Subscription Certificate is to be
sold by the Subscription Agent, such Subscription Certificate must be
accompanied by instructions setting forth the action to be taken with respect to
the Rights that are not to be sold.
Promptly following the Expiration Date, the Subscription Agent will send the
Holder a check for the net proceeds from the sale of such Shareholder Rights. If
the Rights can be sold, sales of such Rights will be deemed to have been
effected at the weighted average price received by the Subscription Agent for
all Rights sold by it at the request of Holders, less any applicable brokerage
commissions, taxes and other direct expenses of sale. The Company will pay the
fees charged by the Subscription Agent for effecting such sales. Orders to sell
Rights must be received by the Subscription Agent prior to 11:00 a.m., New York
time, on the fifth business day preceding the Expiration Date. The Subscription
Agent's obligation to execute orders for the sale of Rights is subject to its
ability to find buyers.
Holders wishing to transfer all or a portion of their Shareholder Rights
(but only in units to purchase whole shares) should allow a sufficient amount of
time prior to the Expiration Date for (i) the transfer instructions to be
received and processed by the Subscription Agent, (ii) a new Subscription
Certificate to be issued and transmitted to the transferee or transferees with
respect to transferred Rights, and to the transferor with respect to retained
Rights, if any, and (iii) the Rights evidenced by such new Subscription
Certificates to be exercised or sold by the recipients thereof. If time does not
permit a transferee of a Right who wishes to exercise its Right to deliver its
Subscription Certificate to the Subscription Agent on or before the Expiration
Date, such transferee should make use of the Guaranteed Delivery Procedure
described under "Exercise of Rights" above. Neither the Company nor the
Subscription Agent shall have any liability to a transferee or transferor of
Rights if Subscription Certificates or new Subscription Certificates are not
received in time for exercise or sale prior to the Expiration Date.
31
<PAGE>
Trading in the Rights will cease at the close of business on the business
day preceding the Expiration Date.
Except for the fees charged by the Subscription Agent (which will be paid by
the Company as described below), all commissions, fees and other expenses
(including brokerage commissions and transfer taxes) incurred in connection with
the purchase, sale or exercise of Rights will be for the account of the
transferor of the Rights, and none of such commissions, fees or expenses will be
paid by the Company or the Subscription Agent.
Shareholder Rights will be eligible for transfer through, and the exercise
of the Rights may be effected through, the facilities of Depository Trust
Company ("DTC"; Rights exercised through DTC are referred to as "DTC Exercised
Rights"). The holder of a DTC Exercised Right may exercise the Right in respect
of such DTC Exercised Right by properly executing and delivering to the
Subscription Agent at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the Expiration
Date, respectively, a DTC Participant Right Exercise Form, together with payment
of the appropriate Subscription Price for the number of Rights Shares for which
the Rights are being exercised. Copies of the DTC Participant Right Exercise
Form may be obtained from the Information Agent.
SUBSCRIPTION AGENT
The Company has appointed Chemical Mellon Shareholder Services, L.L.C. as
Subscription Agent for the Rights Offering. The Subscription Agent's address,
which is the address to which the Subscription Certificates and payment of the
Subscription Price must be delivered, as well as the address to which Notice of
Guaranteed Delivery must be delivered, is:

THE INVESTOR OFFERING
The Company is currently negotiating the terms of the Stock Purchase
Agreements with certain institutional investors, high net worth individuals and
non-employee directors and members of senior management of the Company (I.E.,
the Investors) and expects to enter into Stock Purchase Agreements with such
Investors prior to the commencement of the Rights Offering. It is anticipated
that the Investors will severally agree, subject to certain conditions, to
purchase from the Company at the Subscription Price the 2,250,000 Committed
Shares and the Standby Shares. The Standby Shares will be equal to the lesser of
(i) the number of Rights Shares subject to Rights that expire without being
exercised and are not purchased pursuant to the Oversubscription Privilege and
(ii) shares. Although definitive terms have not been agreed upon, the
Company expects that all of the Stock Purchase Agreements will contain
substantially the same terms. A master form of Stock Purchase Agreement will be
filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus forms
a part.
The Company expects that the obligations of the Investors under the Stock
Purchase Agreements will not be subject to any conditions relating to the
absence of a material adverse change in the financial condition, business or
results of operations of the Company, or to the absence of adverse developments
in financial markets, the outbreak of hostilities or other matters beyond the
control of the Company. However each Investor's obligations under the applicable
Stock Purchase Agreement will be subject to certain other conditions, including
the Minimum Investor Condition (I.E. the requirement that at least
Rights Shares be issued pursuant to the exercise of Rights (including pursuant
to the Oversubscription Privilege)), which is the number of Rights Shares that
will result in receipt of $15 million of gross proceeds by the Company.
The Company expects that, with certain exceptions, each Investor will agree
with the Company that until the closing date of the Investor Offering, such
Investor will not offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of, or bid
for, purchase, contract to purchase or otherwise acquire, any shares of Common
Stock without the prior written consent of the Company.
The following table sets forth certain information relating to the
Investors. Certain Investors are acting on behalf of investment accounts over
which they have discretionary authority or otherwise have been empowered to act.

CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES
In the opinion of Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP, counsel to the Company, the
following is an accurate discussion of the federal income tax consequences of
the Rights Offering that are likely to be material to the Holders upon the
issuance, exercise, disposition and lapse of the Rights.
This discussion is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the "Code"), the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, judicial
authority and current administrative rulings and practice, all of which are
subject to change on a prospective or retroactive basis. The tax consequences of
the Rights Offering under state, local and foreign law are not discussed.
Moreover, special considerations not described herein may apply to certain
taxpayers, such as financial institutions,
33
<PAGE>
broker-dealers, life insurance companies, regulated investment companies,
foreign entities, individuals who are not residents of the United States for
federal income tax purposes, and tax-exempt organizations or accounts. The
discussion is limited to those who have held the Common Stock, and will hold the
Rights (other than Optionholder Rights and Employee Rights) and any Common Stock
acquired upon the exercise of Rights as capital assets (generally, property held
for investment) within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code. The discussion
does not apply to purchases of Common Stock pursuant to a Stock Purchase
Agreement.
SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS
ISSUANCE OF THE SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS. Holders of Common Stock will not
recognize taxable income for federal income tax purposes in connection with the
receipt of the Shareholder Rights.
BASIS AND HOLDING PERIOD OF THE SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS. If, either (i) the fair
market value of the Shareholder Rights on the date of issuance is equal to 15%
or more of the fair market value (on such date) of the Common Stock with respect
to which they are received or (ii) the shareholder properly elects, in the
shareholder's federal income tax return for the taxable year in which the
Shareholder Rights are received, to allocate part of the basis of such Common
Stock to the Shareholder Rights, then upon exercise or transfer of the
Shareholder Rights, the shareholder's basis in such Common Stock will be
allocated between the Common Stock and the Shareholder Rights exercised or
transferred in proportion to the fair market values of each on the date of
issuance. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, the basis of the
Shareholder Rights received by a shareholder as a distribution with respect to
such shareholder's Common Stock will be zero.
The holding period of a shareholder with respect to the Shareholder Rights
received as a distribution on such shareholder's Common Stock will include the
shareholder's holding period for the Common Stock with respect to which the
Shareholder Rights were issued.
In the case of a purchaser of Shareholder Rights, the tax basis of such
Shareholder Rights will be equal to the purchase price paid therefor, and the
holding period for such Shareholder Rights will commence on the day following
the date of the purchase.
TRANSFER OF THE SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS. A shareholder who sells the Shareholder
Rights prior to exercise will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference
between the amount realized from the sale and such shareholder's basis (if any)
in the Shareholder Rights sold. Such gain or loss will be capital gain or loss
if gain or loss from a sale of the underlying Rights Shares would be
characterized as capital gain or loss at the time of such sale. Any gain or loss
recognized on a sale of Shareholder Rights acquired by purchase will be capital
gain or loss if the underlying Rights Shares would be a capital asset in the
hands of the seller.
LAPSE OF THE SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS. Shareholders who allow the Shareholder
Rights received by them to lapse will not recognize any gain or loss, and no
adjustment will be made to the basis of the Common Stock, if any, owned by such
shareholders.
Purchasers of the Shareholder Rights will be entitled to a loss equal to
their tax basis in the Shareholder Rights, if such Shareholder Rights expire
unexercised. Any loss recognized on the expiration of the Shareholder Rights
acquired by purchase will be a capital loss if the underlying Rights Shares
would be a capital asset in the hands of the purchaser.
EXERCISE OF THE SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS; BASIS AND HOLDING PERIOD OF COMMON
STOCK. Holders of Shareholder Rights will not recognize any gain or loss upon
the exercise of Shareholder Rights. The basis of the Common Stock acquired
through exercise of the Shareholder Rights will be equal to the sum of the
Subscription Price paid therefor and the holder's basis in such Shareholder
Rights (if any).
The holding period for the Common Stock acquired through exercise of the
Shareholder Rights will begin on the date the Shareholder Rights are exercised.
34
<PAGE>
OPTIONHOLDER RIGHTS AND EMPLOYEE RIGHTS
RECEIPT OF OPTIONHOLDER RIGHTS OR EMPLOYEE RIGHTS. Holders of Optionholder
Rights and Employee Rights should not recognize taxable income for federal
income tax purposes in connection with the receipt of such Rights.
LAPSE OF OPTIONHOLDER RIGHTS OR EMPLOYEE RIGHTS. There should be no tax
consequences upon the lapse of an Optionholder Right or an Employee Right.
EXERCISE OF OPTIONHOLDER RIGHTS OR EMPLOYEE RIGHTS. Holders of Optionholder
Rights or Employee Rights who exercise those Rights generally will recognize
ordinary income on the Expiration Date in an amount equal to the excess, if any,
of the fair market value of the underlying Rights Shares on that date over the
Subscription Price. This amount will be subject to applicable withholding and,
as a condition to exercise of Optionholder Rights or Employee Rights, the
Holders are required to remit the Withholding Amount to the Company, in addition
to remitting the Subscription Price to the Subscription Agent. See "The Rights
Offering -- Payment of Withholding Amount Relating to Optionholder Rights and
Employee Rights." Insiders (as defined below) are subject to special tax
treatment as described under "Special Rules Applicable to Insiders" below. In
addition, special rules may apply to Holders who finance the Subscription Price
to exercise an Optionholder Right with proceeds of a loan from the Company, and
such Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax issues
arising from such financing.
SPECIAL RULES APPLICABLE TO INSIDERS. Except as discussed below, if a
Holder of an Optionholder Right is a director, officer or shareholder subject to
Section 16 of the Exchange Act (an "Insider") and exercises such Right, the
timing of the recognition of any ordinary income will be deferred until, and the
amount of ordinary income should be determined based on the fair market value
(or sales price in the case of a disposition) of the underlying Rights Shares
upon, the earlier of the following two dates: (i) six months after the date of
issuance of the Right or (ii) a disposition of the underlying Rights Shares,
unless the Insider makes an election under Section 83(b) of the Code (an "83(b)
Election") within 30 days after the Expiration Date to recognize ordinary income
based on the value of the Common Stock on the date of exercise. Special rules
apply to an Insider who exercises a Right if the Subscription Price is greater
than the fair market value of the underlying Rights Shares on the Exercise Date.
In addition, special rules may apply if an Insider who exercises an Optionholder
Right acquires shares of Common Stock (other than pursuant to the exercise of
Rights) within the six-month period following the issuance of such Optionholder
Right. Insiders should consult their tax advisors to determine the tax
consequences to them of exercising Optionholder Rights.
BASIS AND HOLDING PERIOD OF COMMON STOCK. A Holder's basis in a share of
Common Stock received upon the exercise of an Optionholder Right or an Employee
Right will equal the Subscription Price paid therefor (excluding withholding
taxes paid together with the Subscription Price) plus the amount includible in
income as ordinary income as discussed above.
The holding period for Common Stock acquired upon exercise of an
Optionholder Right or an Employee Right by Holders other than Insiders will
begin just after the Expiration Date. The holding period for the Common Stock
acquired upon exercise of an Optionholder Right by an Insider will begin upon
the expiration of the six-month holding period imposed under Section 16(b) of
the Exchange Act unless the Insider makes an 83(b) Election with respect to such
stock, in which case the holding period would begin just after the Expiration
Date.
INFORMATION REPORTING AND WITHHOLDING
Under the backup withholding rules of the Code, Holders may be subject to
backup withholding at the rate of 31 percent with respect to payments made
pursuant to the Rights Offering unless such Holder (i) is a corporation or comes
within certain other exempt categories and, when required, demonstrates this
fact, or (ii) provides a correct taxpayer identification number and certifies
under penalties of perjury that the taxpayer identification number is correct
and that the Holder is not subject to backup withholding because of a failure to
report all dividends and interest income. Any
35
<PAGE>
amount withheld under these rules will be credited against such Holder's federal
income tax liability. The Company may require Holders to establish exemption
from backup withholding or to make arrangements satisfactory to the Company with
respect to the payment of backup withholding.
Withholding Amounts remitted by persons exercising Optionholder Rights or
Employee Rights will be applied against the related federal and state tax
liabilities of such Holders, and will be reported, together with the appropriate
amount of taxable income arising from such exercise, on a Form W-2 issued to
such persons. If the Withholding Amount paid by a Holder exceeds such Holder's
actual liability, such excess will not be refunded directly by the Company
(except for Withholding Amounts paid with respect to the Oversubscription
Privilege and for which the Holder did not receive Rights Shares), but may be
refunded by the applicable tax authority following timely application therefor
by the Holder. In the event the Company determines that the Withholding Amount
remitted by the Holder in respect of tax withholding is insufficient to satisfy
the actual withholding required, the Company, without further notice, may
withhold the additional amounts from other compensation due to the Holder from
the Company.
THE FOREGOING SUMMARY IS INCLUDED FOR GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY. ACCORDINGLY,
EACH HOLDER IS URGED TO CONSULT WITH HIS OR HER OWN TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO
THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE RIGHTS OFFERING APPLICABLE TO HIS OR HER OWN
PARTICULAR TAX SITUATION, INCLUDING THE APPLICATION AND EFFECT OF FEDERAL, STATE
AND LOCAL INCOME AND OTHER TAX LAWS.
PRICE RANGE OF COMMON STOCK AND DIVIDEND POLICY
The Common Stock is listed on the AMEX and the PSE. The following table

* The first day of trading of the Common Stock following the Reorganized
Company's emergence from bankruptcy.
On May 29, 1996, the day immediately preceding the day on which the
Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part was first filed with
the Commission, the closing sale price for a share of the Common Stock as
reported on the AMEX was $5 5/8.
The Reorganized Company has never declared a dividend on the Common Stock
and does not expect to declare a dividend in the foreseeable future.
Moreover, the Company is prohibited from paying dividends by the terms of
the Credit Facility. The American Note limits the Company's ability to pay
dividends.

CAPITALIZATION
The table below presents the capitalization of the Company at March 31, 1996
on an actual, pro forma and as adjusted basis, and should be read in conjunction
with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this
Prospectus. The pro forma capitalization gives effect to the Company's (i)
repurchase of 827,221 shares of Common Stock from the GPA Companies at $1.10 per
share, (ii) repayment at a 15% discount of approximately $3.5 million of
long-term debt owed to the GPA Companies, and (iii) borrowing under the Credit
Facility to fund such repurchase and repayment, all of which occurred on April
29, 1996. The Case A as adjusted capitalization gives effect to the GPA
Companies transaction and to the exercise of the maximum number of Rights that
can be exercised without satisfying the Minimum Investor Condition (assuming a
Subscription Price of $2.92) and the payment of fees and expenses related
thereto estimated to be $1.1 million; the Case B as adjusted capitalization
gives effect to the GPA Companies transaction and to the consummation in full of
the Rights Offering and the Investor Offering (assuming a Subscription Price of
$2.92) and the payment of fees and expenses related thereto estimated to be $2.0
million. See "Purpose of the Rights Offering and Use of Proceeds." The
capitalization as adjusted is not necessarily indicative of the capitalization
that would have occurred if the Rights Offering (in Case A) or the Rights
Offering and the Investor Offering (in Case B) had been consummated on March 31,
1996, nor is it necessarily indicative of the future capitalization of the
Company.

SELECTED HISTORICAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The following table sets forth for the periods indicated selected financial
data for the Company. The statement of operations data for the years ended
December 31, 1991, 1992, 1993 and 1995, the period from January 1, 1994 to
September 11, 1994, the period from September 12, 1994 to December 31, 1994 and
the balance sheet data at December 31, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994 and 1995 and
September 11, 1994 have been derived from the Company's financial statements and
notes thereto, which have been audited by KPMG Peat Marwick LLP, independent
certified public accountants. The report of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP on the
Company's December 31, 1995 financial statements contains an explanatory
paragraph that states that the financial statements of the Reorganized Company
reflect the impact of adjustments to reflect the fair value of assets and
liabilities under fresh start accounting and, as a result, the financial
statements of the Reorganized Company are presented on a basis different than
those of the Predecessor Company. In addition, the report of KPMG Peat Marwick
LLP on the Company's December 31, 1995 financial statements contains an
explanatory paragraph that states that the Company's recurring losses from
operations, deficit working capital and limited sources of additional liquidity
raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of that uncertainty.
The following selected financial and operating data are qualified by the
more detailed financial statements of the Company and the notes thereto included
elsewhere in this Prospectus and should be read in conjunction with such
financial statements and notes and the discussion under "Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" included
elsewhere in this Prospectus. The statement of operations data for the quarters
ended March 31, 1995 and 1996 and the balance sheet data at March 31, 1995 and
1996 are derived from unaudited financial statements which, in the opinion of
management, have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial
statements and contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring
adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and
results of operations for such periods. The results of operations for the
quarter ended March 31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of results to be
expected for the full year.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
INTRODUCTION
Hawaiian Airlines was adversely affected by the unpredictable and often
unfavorable industry and economic conditions of the past five years. The
Interisland and Transpac routes served by the Company are highly competitive and
are subject to seasonal and cyclical volatility primarily due to seasonal
leisure and holiday travel. The Company typically experiences low traffic levels
in the first quarter of the year and strong travel periods during June, July,
August and December. The Company, along with other airlines, uses discount fares
and other promotions to stimulate traffic during normally slack travel periods,
to generate cash flow and to sustain relative market share in its Interisland
and Transpac markets. See "Business -- Operations."
In 1989, the Company was the subject of a leveraged acquisition by an
investor group. Due to a number of factors, the Company began to experience
severe financial difficulty and on September 21, 1993, Hawaiian Airlines
voluntarily commenced a Chapter 11 reorganization process and emerged from
bankruptcy less than a year later on September 12, 1994, the effective date of
the Plan of Reorganization (the "Effective Date"). The Chapter 11 process
resulted in the Company recognizing an extraordinary gain of $190.1 million,
representing the relief of $204.7 million of liabilities, net of offsets and
certain liabilities that survived the reorganization.
Consistent with the industry, excluding the effect of nonrecurring noncash
transactions, the Company improved its operating and net income performance in
1995. Nevertheless, the Company's working capital deficit during 1995 reached an
extreme level, even by industry standards. To address this problem, in January
1996 the Company consummated a series of transactions, including the completion
of the $20 million AIP Investment and certain arrangements and agreements with
American and the Company's labor unions. These transactions have improved the
Company's liquidity substantially and will result in reduced cash operating
expenses over the next several years. Nonetheless, the Company had a $21.7
million working capital deficit at March 31, 1996. See "Risk Factors -- Ability
of Company to Continue as a Going Concern."
The report of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP on the Company's December 31, 1995
financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph that states that the
financial statements of the Reorganized Company reflect the impact of
adjustments to reflect the fair value of assets and liabilities under fresh
start accounting and, as a result, the financial statements of the Reorganized
Company are presented on a basis different than those of the Predecessor
Company. In addition, the report of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP on the Company's
December 31, 1995 financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph that
states that the Company's recurring losses from operations, deficit working
capital and limited sources of additional liquidity raise substantial doubt
about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do
not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of that
uncertainty. Management recognizes that the continuation of the Company as a
going concern is dependent upon a return to profitability, positive cash flow
from operations and the generation of adequate funds to meet its ongoing
obligations.
The Rights Offering and the Investor Offering are intended to raise a
minimum of $25 million of gross proceeds as part of the Company's on-going
efforts to improve its liquidity. However, there can be no assurances that the
Rights Offering and the Investor Offering can be successfully completed.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company's
financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Prospectus

</TABLE>
FIRST QUARTER 1996 COMPARED TO FIRST QUARTER 1995
INTRODUCTION. During the first quarter of 1996, the Company generated
operating income of $396,000 and incurred a net loss of $582,000. This
represents a $7.8 million improvement from the first quarter 1995 operating loss
of $7.4 million and a $7.7 million improvement from the first quarter 1995 net
loss of $8.3 million.
OPERATING REVENUES. Operating revenues totaled $94.1 million during first
quarter 1996, an increase of $18.6 million or 24.6% over 1995 first quarter
operating revenues of $75.5 million.
Revenues from Interisland passenger service totaled $34.3 million during
first quarter 1996, an increase of $3.3 million or 10.6% from first quarter
1995. Increases of 6.4% and 7.0% in Interisland passengers carried and revenue
passenger miles, respectively, were augmented by an increase in Interisland
yield of 0.8 or 3.1%. Increases in revenue passengers carried and revenue
passenger miles were primarily the result of the continued recovery of the
Hawaii tourism market. First quarter 1996 Interisland yield increased due to (i)
the effects of promotional fare ticket programs being less prevalent in 1996 as
most promotion tickets were sold in 1994 and used throughout 1995 and (ii) the
Company maintaining and/or increasing certain Interisland fares.
45
<PAGE>
Revenues from Transpac passenger operations amounted to $41.4 million during
first quarter 1996 compared to $30.3 million in first quarter 1995, an increase
of $11.1 million or 36.6%. The Company experienced increases of 28.8% and 24.1%
in revenue passengers carried and revenue passenger miles, respectively.
Increased revenue passengers carried and revenue passenger miles were a direct
result of increased frequencies in the Transpac market as denoted by the
increase in Transpac available seat miles by 26.2%. Transpac yield also
increased by 0.6 or 10.3% in first quarter 1996 as compared to first quarter
1995. Again, similar to the above, the increase in yield was primarily caused by
the effects of promotional fare ticket programs being less prevalent in 1996 and
general increases in certain Transpac fare bases.
Overseas charter revenues totaled $7.0 million in first quarter 1996,
representing an increase of $3.4 million or 96.0% from first quarter 1995. The
increase was due to the Company operating six charters per week in the first
quarter of 1996 versus three charters per week in the first quarter of 1995
between Honolulu, Hawaii and Las Vegas, Nevada.
Prior to 1996, the airline industry was subject to a 10.0% excise tax on
each ticket sold, a 6.25% cargo excise tax and a $6.0 international departure
tax. Efforts are underway to encourage the United States Congress to re-enact
legislation authorizing these taxes. If these taxes are reinstated, the Company
would either have to absorb the taxes, which would adversely affect operating
results, or raise ticket prices and cargo transportation fees in order to offset
the taxes. If the Company were to raise ticket prices and cargo transportation
fees, there is no assurance that the Company would be able to maintain such
increases or that operating results would not be adversely affected by the
increases.
OPERATING EXPENSES. Operating expenses totaled $93.7 million in first
quarter 1996, an increase of $10.7 million or 12.9% over first quarter 1995.
Wages and benefits increased $2.1 million or 7.6% in 1996. The increase was
primarily attributable to (1) scheduled wage increases being in effect in 1996
that were terminated upon amendments to each of the Company's labor union
agreements becoming effective on January 31, 1996, as described above and (2)
$964,000 of noncash compensation expense related to options granted pursuant to
the terms of the Company's 1994 Stock Option Plan.
Aircraft fuel cost, including taxes and oil, increased by $4.6 million or
36.8% quarter over quarter. The average cost per gallon, excluding taxes,
increased by 5.7 CENTS or 9.9% in first quarter 1996 versus first quarter 1995.
Further, approximately $1.1 million more in fuel taxes were incurred in first
quarter 1996 versus first quarter 1995 due to the Company becoming subject to an
additional 4.3 CENTS per gallon tax effective October 1, 1995. The Company also
consumed approximately 3.4 million or 17.6% more gallons of aircraft fuel due to
increased frequencies in first quarter 1996 as compared to first quarter 1995.
Maintenance materials and repairs increased $2.5 million or 19.0% over 1995.
In first quarter 1996, the Company incurred approximately $3.0 million more in
DC-10 maintenance expense due to (1) the Company utilizing eight DC-10 aircraft
in first quarter 1996 versus seven DC-10 aircraft in first quarter 1995 and (2)
increased frequencies and maintenance rates in first quarter 1996. The increase
was offset by decreased maintenance expense of $681,000 due to fewer service
checks and required airframe maintenance on the Company's DC-9 fleet.
In first quarter 1995, the Company recognized a nonrecurring, noncash early
retirement provision of $2.0 million, representing the estimated effects of an
early retirement program on the Company's pension and postretirement benefit
obligations as of March 31, 1995. The program was offered to qualified
participants in the ground and salaried personnel defined benefit plans in first
quarter 1995 in an effort to reduce labor costs. No such program was offered in
first quarter 1996.

<PAGE>
1995 COMPARED TO 1994
INTRODUCTION. The financial results of the Reorganized Company have been
affected due to the recapitalization and adoption of fresh start reporting as of
September 12, 1994 and such results are not comparable in all respects to the
Predecessor Company. Nevertheless, the operating revenues and expenses of the
Reorganized Company in 1995 have been compared to the combined operating
revenues and expenses of the Reorganized Company and Predecessor Company in
1994. Significant differences between 1995 and 1994 as a result of the
recapitalization and fresh start adjustments have been disclosed. See Note 2 to
the financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus.
For the year ended December 31, 1995, the Company incurred operating and net
losses of $1.9 million and $5.5 million, respectively. The 1995 operating loss
represents a decrease of $10.8 million or 85.0% from the operating loss of $12.7
million in 1994.
OPERATING REVENUES. Operating revenues totaled $346.9 million in 1995
compared to $306.0 million in 1994, an increase of $40.9 million or 13.4%.
Revenues from Interisland passenger service totaled $122.1 million during
1995, an increase of $2.3 million or 1.9% from 1994 Interisland passenger
revenues of $119.8 million. Increases of 2.3% and 2.9% in Interisland passengers
carried and revenue passenger miles, respectively, were offset by a decrease in
Interisland yield of 0.3 CENTS or 1.2%. Increases in Interisland revenue
passengers carried, revenue passenger miles and available seat miles were a
direct result of increased schedule frequencies due to operational concepts such
as the Island Shuttle operating for a full year in 1995 versus a partial year in
1994 and the use of promotional fare ticket programs to stimulate traffic and
increase liquidity. The promotional fare ticket programs, however, were also the
primary cause of dilution in the 1995 Interisland yield.
Revenues from Transpac passenger operations amounted to $156.2 million
during 1995 compared to $142.1 million in 1994, an increase of $14.0 million or
9.9%. The increase in Transpac passenger revenues resulted primarily from an
increase in Transpac load factor of 5.8%. The increase in load factor was offset
by a 0.2 CENTS or 3.1% decrease in Transpac yield year over year. Transpac
yields were affected by heavy pricing competition in the Transpac market and,
similar to those relating to Interisland operations described above, the effects
of promotional fare ticket programs.
Southpac passenger revenues in 1995 totaled $19.3 million, representing an
increase of $982,000 or 5.4% from 1994. Both Southpac load factor and yield
increased year over year by 7.6% and 4.7%, respectively. The increase in yield
is primarily attributable to increases to all Southpac fares in late 1994.
Transpac cargo revenues increased by $1.9 million or 24.3% from 1994.
Increased frequency in its Transpac routes allowed the Company to transport 5.1
or 48.4% more tons of freight in 1995. The increase in tonnage was offset by a
decrease in yield year over year of 5.9 CENTS or 16.3%. The decrease in Transpac
cargo yield was primarily caused by a change in mix as the Company carried more
agricultural and bulk freight in 1995 versus 1994.
Overseas charter revenues of $22.2 million were earned in 1995 due to the
commencement of charter operations between Honolulu, Hawaii and Las Vegas,
Nevada in January 1995.
OPERATING EXPENSES. Operating expenses totaled $348.8 million in 1995, an
increase of $30.1 million or 9.4% from total operating expenses of $318.7
million in 1994. Wages and benefits increased $5.6 million or 5.5% in 1995. The
increase is primarily attributed to (i) $3.6 million of additional wages and
benefits due to wage increases between 5.0% to 6.7% effective September 1, 1994
and (ii) $2.0 million of noncash compensation expense recognized under the
provisions of the 1994 Stock Option Plan for officers and key employees of the
Company.
47
<PAGE>
Aircraft fuel, including taxes and oil, increased by $9.0 million or 19.0%
from $47.7 in 1994 to $56.7 million in 1995. While average cost per gallon
remained relatively stable year over year at $0.61, the Company consumed 14.0
million or 17.9% more gallons in 1995 than in 1994, primarily due to increased
frequencies on the Company's Interisland and Transpac routes.
Maintenance materials and repairs totaled $60.5 million in 1995, an increase
of $14.0 million or 30.1% over 1994. The Company incurred approximately $9.8
million in maintenance costs for its L-1011 and DHC-7 aircraft during 1994, the
year these aircraft were phased out of service. However, the elimination of
maintenance costs related to these aircraft was offset by $23.8 million of
additional maintenance incurred in 1995 for the Company's DC-10 and DC-9 fleets.
Aircraft rentals decreased by $7.5 million or 31.2% year over year. The
decrease was a result of the following: (i) non-existence of rental expense for
L-1011 and DHC-7 aircraft in 1995 since these aircraft were phased out of
service in 1994, as compared to $3.3 million of L-1011 and DHC-7 rents in 1994;
(ii) a $4.2 million decrease in DC-9 aircraft and engine rents due to such rents
being restructured on the Effective Date (I.E., the effective date of the Plan
of Reorganization); and (iii) $4.4 million in additional rents for DC-10
aircraft.
Sales commissions totaled $13.9 million in 1995, an increase of $1.1 million
or 8.6% over total sales commissions of $12.8 million in 1994. The increase is
primarily attributable to $1.0 million in additional commissions related to
incentive programs offered to wholesalers designed to stimulate traffic.
Depreciation and amortization increased by $1.1 million or 15.6%. An
additional $2.5 million of amortization of reorganization value in excess of
identifiable assets in 1995 was offset by $1.7 million less in depreciation from
the reclassification of approximately $13.5 million of property and equipment to
assets held for sale on the Effective Date.
Landing fees increased by $1.4 million or 20.7% to $8.2 million in 1995. The
increase was principally caused by increased frequencies in the Transpac markets
(specifically Los Angeles, Las Vegas and Portland) and the Interisland market.
Advertising and promotion totaled $8.3 million in 1995, an increase of $3.4
million or 69.1% over 1994, a direct result of efforts to increase the Company's
exposure in the Interisland and West Coast markets through advertising and
telecommunications media.
Other operating expenses in 1995 were reduced by the reversal of $1.8
million in preconfirmation contingency accruals initially provided for on the
Effective Date.
Early retirement provision of $2.0 million represents the estimated effects
on the Company's pension and postretirement benefit obligations from the early
retirement program offered in the first quarter of 1995.
NONOPERATING INCOME (EXPENSE). Reorganization expenses in 1994 totaled
$14.0 million and principally represent $5.7 million and $7.6 million in legal
and professional fees and employee concession claims, respectively, associated
with the Predecessor's Chapter 11 process and $638,000 in fresh start accounting
adjustments recorded on the Effective Date in accordance with the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position 90-7, "Financial
Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code" ("SOP 90-7").
EXTRAORDINARY ITEMS. An extraordinary gain of approximately $190.1 million
was recorded in the third quarter of 1994 primarily due to the extinguishment of
prepetition obligations.
1994 COMPARED TO 1993
INTRODUCTION. The Company believes that its operating revenues and expenses
after the Effective Date have been presented on a basis which is in all material
respects consistent with the
48
<PAGE>
presentation of operating revenues and expenses before the Effective Date.
Therefore, operating revenues and expenses of the Reorganized Company and the
Predecessor in 1994 have been combined for purposes of comparison to 1993.
Excluding nonrecurring items, the Company's operating and net losses for
1994 decreased over 1993 by $12.1 million and $16.0 million, respectively, to
$12.7 million and $12.9 million, respectively.
OPERATING REVENUES. Operating revenues totaled $306.0 million in 1994
compared to $304.1 million in 1993, an increase of $1.9 million or 0.6%.
Revenues from Interisland passenger service totaled $119.8 million during
1994, an increase of $1.2 million or 1.0% from 1993 Interisland passenger
revenues of $118.5 million. Increases of 7.5% and 8.4% in Interisland passengers
carried and revenue passenger miles, respectively, were offset by a decrease in
Interisland yield of 1.8 or 6.7%. Increases in revenue passengers carried,
revenue passenger miles and available seat miles were a direct result of (i) the
utilization of 13 DC-9 aircraft during a majority of 1994 versus four DHC-7 and,
on average nine DC-9 aircraft in 1993, and (ii) increased passenger counts due
to the overall increase in Hawaii tourism year over year and, newly implemented
operational concepts such as the Island Shuttle from Honolulu to Maui and Kauai
and promotional fare ticket programs. However, the promotional fare ticket
programs, such as those held in the second and fourth quarters of 1994, were
also the primary cause of dilution in the 1994 Interisland yield.
Revenues from Transpac passenger operations amounted to $142.1 million
during 1994 compared to $136.5 million in 1993, an increase of $5.6 million or
4.1%. The increase in Transpac passenger revenues resulted primarily from a 0.4
or 6.7% increase in Transpac yield year over year. The increase in yield was
offset by decreases in revenue passengers carried and revenue passenger miles of
0.6% and 1.2%, respectively. As noted above, promotional fare ticket programs
were held in 1994, with a portion of such promotional fare ticket programs
associated with Transpac routes. Such allocations assisted in increasing
Transpac yields in 1994 as no such allocations were made in 1993. Decreases in
Transpac revenue passengers carried, revenue passenger miles flown and available
seat miles were a direct result of the Company completing in 1994 its transition
to an all DC-10 aircraft fleet from an all L-1011 fleet for its Transpac
flights. In their current configuration, at full load, the DC-10 on average
accommodates 35 fewer passengers than the L-1011.
Southpac passenger revenues in 1994 remained comparable to 1993 at $18.3
million. While period over period revenue passengers carried and revenue
passenger miles decreased by 1.5% and 0.6%, respectively, Southpac yield
increased by 0.1 or 1.0%. Again, decreases in Southpac revenue passengers
carried, revenue passenger miles flown and available seat miles may be
attributed to the transition to an all DC-10 aircraft fleet in 1994 for the
Company's Southpac flights. Southpac yields increased in 1994 when a competitor
discontinued service on Southpac routes served by the Company.
Transpac cargo revenues increased by $1.6 million or 26.2% from 1993.
Increased frequency in its Transpac routes allowed the Company to transport 5.4
million or 34.3% more pounds of freight in 1994. The increase in tonnage was
offset by a decrease in yield year over year of 2.5 or 6.4%.
Overseas charter revenues decreased by $5.5 million or 88.7% upon comparison
of 1994 to 1993. A majority of the decrease is associated with the Predecessor
Company obtaining in 1993 a $3.9 million settlement from the Military Airlift
Command for charter operations during Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm
in 1991 and 1990.
OPERATING EXPENSES. Operating expenses totaled $318.7 million in 1994, a
decrease of $10.2 million or 3.1% from total operating expenses of $328.9
million in 1993.
Wages and benefits increased $1.4 million or 1.4% in 1994. The increase is
primarily attributed to wage increases between 5.0% to 6.7% effective September
1, 1994.
49
<PAGE>
Aircraft fuel, including taxes and oil decreased by $2.1 million or 4.2%
from $49.8 million in 1993 to $47.7 million in 1994. In addition to a 5.0 or
8.2% decrease in average cost per gallon year over year, the Company incurred
approximately $2.3 million less in aircraft fuel expense in 1994 due to the
phase out of its DC-8 aircraft in 1993.
Maintenance materials and repairs totaled $46.5 million in 1994 an increase
of $5.6 million or 13.7% over 1993. On a net basis, the Company incurred
approximately $5.1 million in additional maintenance expense from the transition
to DC-10 aircraft in 1994.
Aircraft rentals decreased by $5.4 million or 18.3%, of which $4.1 million
represents decreased rents due to DC-9 aircraft operating under capital versus
operating leases in 1994 and other DC-9 aircraft operating lease rents being
restructured on the Effective Date. Approximately $1.3 million of the decrease
is attributable to decreased rents associated with phased out L-1011, DHC-7 and
DC-8 aircraft in 1994 and 1993.
Purchased services increased $2.1 million or 11.8%, to $19.9 million in 1994
from $17.8 million in 1993. The Company incurred an additional $1.6 million in
costs in 1994 associated with simulator training, operation of its flight
operating system, credit card fees and outsourced computer mainframe services.
Sales commissions totaled $12.8 million in 1994, an increase of $1.6 million
or 14.3% over total sales commissions of $11.2 million in 1993. The increase is
primarily attributable to an 18.0% increase in commissionable sales processed
through area settlement plans.
Rentals other than aircraft and engines totaled $9.6 million in 1994 versus
$7.3 million in 1993. The $2.3 million or 31.5% increase is due to increased
space rental rates and additional joint use and system support expenses charged
primarily by the State of Hawaii airport authorities.
Landing fees increased by $2.0 million or 41.6% to $6.8 million in 1994.
Increases associated with DC-9 aircraft landings and wide-body aircraft landings
of $1.4 million and $900,000, respectively, were experienced in 1994. Such
increases were due to (i) increased landing fee rates in Hawaii and Los Angeles,
California and (ii) increased frequency due to implementation of the Island
Shuttle, schedule changes to Los Angeles and Las Vegas and commencement of
scheduled service to Portland.
Advertising and promotion totaled $4.9 million in 1994, an increase of $1.8
million or 58.1% over 1993. Approximately $900,000 is due to a conscious effort
by management to increase the Company's exposure through advertising and
promotional media, especially on the U.S. West Coast. Another $200,000 of
additional expenses were incurred in connection with the Company's participation
in American's AAdvantage-Registered Trademark- frequent flyer program.
Insurance-hull and liability increased from $2.1 million in 1993 to $3.4
million in 1994. The $1.3 million or 61.9% increase was mainly due to an 84.2%
increase in the applicable premium rate for liability applied to the Company's
revenue passenger miles in 1994.
Interrupted trip expense decreased by $2.0 million or 49.9% year over year.
The Company experienced $1.8 million less in flight interruption manifest and
denied boarding expenses due to its continual efforts to improve customer
service and on-time performance.
Nonreorganization professional and legal fees decreased $2.2 million period
over period due to a majority of professional and legal fees being classified,
in accordance with the provisions of SOP 90-7 as reorganization expenses during
1994.
Restructuring charges in 1993 represent the Predecessor Company's provision
for the anticipated return and termination of five of its DC-9 aircraft in the
second quarter of 1993.
NONOPERATING INCOME (EXPENSE). Reorganization expenses in 1993 of $52.6
million primarily consist of $47.1 million in anticipated L-1011 and DHC-7
aircraft rental and return costs, $4.7 million for the write-off of related
flight equipment leasehold improvements and $800,000 in legal and professional
fees.
50
<PAGE>
EXTRAORDINARY ITEM. The $12.1 million extraordinary item in 1993 represents
a nonrecurring, noncash gain due to the reduction in the net accrued pension
benefit obligation of the Predecessor Company. Effective October 1, 1993, the
IAM and salaried employee defined benefit pension plans were frozen with no
future pay or credited service increases.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
For several years prior to the AIP Investment in January 1996, the Company
operated with a cash balance equivalent to less than one week's worth of
operating expenses. Operating at that level of liquidity placed the Company's
existence at risk because there was no cushion to respond to unexpected
operational upheavals that have periodically affected the airline industry or to
cover the seasonal downturns typically experienced by the Company. This working
capital shortage caused the Company to defer certain discretionary capital
expenditures and had an unfavorable impact on yield, which, although difficult
to quantify, is believed to have been significant. In addition, the Company
found it necessary to offer its products to wholesalers and to the public at
reduced rates in order to enhance cash flow. While these promotional fare ticket
sales increased liquidity at the time, they also increased air traffic
liability, which can adversely affect yields, revenues and liquidity in future
periods The Company's historical uncertain financial situation also limited the
availability of trade credit and at times necessitated the use of cash or
equivalent security to obtain services. Finally, potential partners in the
airline industry have been reluctant to enter into business arrangements with
the Company until its financial difficulties have been overcome.
On October 31, 1994, the Company failed to make certain payments due to
American pursuant to the Aircraft Lease Agreement pursuant to which American
leases DC-10s to the Company. American sent the Company notice of the failure to
make rent and prepaid maintenance payments and noted that such failure
constituted an event of default under the Aircraft Lease Agreement, but did not
declare the Aircraft Lease Agreement in default or exercise any of the remedies
available to it, which included, but were not limited to, termination of the
Aircraft Lease Agreement, repossession of certain aircraft and engines, recovery
of damages and drawings under letters of credit then in place in the amount of
$2.0 million posted by the Company as required by the Aircraft Lease Agreement.
The Company subsequently made the rent and prepaid maintenance payments due
American in November 1994.
In December 1994 and during the first quarter of 1995, the Company again
failed to make certain rent and prepaid maintenance payments in full that were
due pursuant to the Aircraft Lease Agreement. Again, while American sent the
Company notice of the failure to make such payments in full, American did not
declare the Aircraft Lease Agreement in default or exercise any of the remedies
available to it. On several occasions during the year, American deferred the
payment of the delinquent amounts. As of December 9, 1995, the Company owed
American $7.1 million in deferred payments and accrued interest. American agreed
to permit the deferral of the payment of this $7.1 million (plus interest
thereon) and the periodic payments of lease rents and maintenance payments that
would become due on or after December 8, 1995, up to a maximum of an additional
$2.9 million (including interest), until the earlier of the consummation of the
AIP Investment or February 7, 1996. As of January 4, 1996, the Company had
deferred the maximum deferrable amount of lease rents and maintenance payments
under the Aircraft Lease Agreement. These deferred amounts were satisfied by the
Company on January 31, 1996, through the delivery by the Company of the American
Note.
CURRENT STATUS
As of March 31, 1996, the Company significantly decreased its working
capital deficit by consummating a series of transactions including (i) the $20.0
million cash investment by AIP and (ii) the payment of up to $10.0 million of
deferred lease rents and maintenance payments (and accrued interest thereon) due
American through the issuance by the Company of the American Note. As of
51
<PAGE>
March 31, 1996, the Company had a net working capital deficit of $21.7 million,
which represents a $30.0 million improvement in the net working capital deficit
of $51.7 million at December 31, 1995. As of April 30, 1996, the net working
capital deficit had been reduced to $19.7 million.
The Company plans to make approximately $11.4 million of necessary capital
expenditures in the ordinary course of business during 1996. These expenditures
include $2.5 million for the capitalized portions of two scheduled DC-9
maintenance checks (D-checks) and $3.1 million for a portion of certain JT8D
engine overhauls. The balance of the expenditures are for the replacement of
rotable equipment and other ground equipment, the first of a series of
investments in improved software and related hardware, the completion of
facilities necessary for the Company to consolidate its overseas passenger and
baggage processing operations into the Honolulu Interisland Terminal (for which
the State of Hawaii will provide a majority of the financing) and certain other
projects. The Company had approximately $1.7 million of capital expenditures in
the first quarter of 1996.
On April 29, 1996, the Credit Facility, which is provided by CIT
Group/Credit Finance, Inc., was amended to increase the borrowing capacity
thereunder from $8.2 million to $15.0 million. The Credit Facility consists of
two secured term loans and a secured revolving line of credit including up to
$6.0 million of letters of credit. The term loans are in the amounts of $5.4
million and $1.3 million and will amortize in equal installments over periods of
48 and 60 months, respectively. The outstanding principal amounts of the term
loans will become due and payable upon termination of the Credit Facility.
Available credit is subject to change determined by recalculation of the
borrowing base, repayments due under the term loans, and repayments arising from
the disposition of, and other changes in, the related collateral securing the
Credit Facility. As of April 30, 1996, the total availability under the Credit
Facility was $7.3 million, including $5.9 million in letters of credit. The
Credit Facility has an initial term of three years from April 29, 1996, and
renews automatically for successive terms of two years each, unless terminated
by either party on at least 60 days notice prior to the end of the then-current
term. The Company may terminate the Credit Facility at any time, on 30 days
notice and payment of certain early termination fees during the initial term,
and without early termination fees during any renewal term. The Credit Facility
is secured by a first lien on substantially all of the Company's property,
excluding the Company's owned and leased aircraft, the Company's aircraft
engines while installed on an aircraft and certain security deposits. Amounts
outstanding under the Credit Facility accrue interest at a rate of 2% over the
prime rate reported by Chase Manhattan Bank (National Association). The rate
will be reduced to 1.75% over the prime rate on January 1, 1998 if the Company
meets certain financial tests for 1996.
In connection with the AIP Investment, the Company agreed with the GPA
Companies that, if the closing of the Rights Offering shall have occurred by
September 30, 1996, the Company would repurchase all of the shares of Common
Stock owned by the GPA Companies and repay certain secured and unsecured
promissory notes held by the GPA Companies. The stock repurchase price would be
$1.10 per share and the promissory notes would be repaid at approximately 85.0%
of the then-carrying value of the notes, including any deferred costs and other
expenses owed. At its option, the Company could make such repurchase and
repayment at any time prior to the closing of the Rights Offering. As required
by the provider of the Credit Facility in connection with the amendment thereof,
the Company exercised this option on April 29, 1996. Based on 827,221 shares of
Common Stock owned by the GPA Companies and the carrying value of the notes as
of such date, the Company paid approximately $4.7 million to the GPA Companies
to repurchase the shares and repay the notes. These transactions resulted in an
extraordinary gain, before taxes, of approximately $682,000. The payment to the
GPA Companies was funded by borrowings under the Credit Facility on April 29,
1996.
While the Company's capital resources have been increased substantially due
to the AIP Investment, the arrangements with American and the amendment of the
Credit Facility, the successful completion of the Rights Offering and the
Investor Offering would further improve the Company's liquidity. It is
anticipated that the combination of the Company's improved liquidity and reduced
operating costs will enable the Company to make necessary capital expenditures,
take advantage of prompt payment discounts, avoid the need to provide early
payment incentives to wholesalers and
52
<PAGE>
eliminate the Company's historical dependence on ticket discounting to generate
capital, thereby further improving yields, profitability and liquidity.
Nevertheless, the Company will continue to seek additional sources of liquidity.
If the Company is unsuccessful in obtaining additional sources of liquidity, an
adverse change in events and circumstances could result in the Company being
unable to meet its financial obligations after it exhausts its current and
foreseeable capital resources. No assurance can be given that the Rights
Offering and the Investor Offering will be successful or that the Company will
be able to obtain other sources of liquidity.
The financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus have been
prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes continuity of operations and
realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of
business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to
the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or the amounts
and classification of liabilities that might be necessary as a result of the
outcome of future uncertainties. Management recognizes that the continuation of
the Company as a going concern is dependent upon a return to profitability,
positive cash flow from operations and the generation of adequate funds to meet
its ongoing obligations.
RECAPITALIZATION. The AIP Investment, in which AIP purchased 18,181,818
shares of the Common Stock and four shares of special preferred stock for $20.0
million in cash ($1.10 per share), was consummated on January 31, 1996. Of the
$20.0 million gross proceeds from the AIP Investment, a portion was used to pay
(i) approximately $2.8 million of fees and expenses associated with the AIP
Investment and its related transactions, (ii) approximately $3.2 million of
accrued landing fees for the Company's Hawaii operations and accrued rent on the
Company's facilities in Hawaii, and (iii) approximately $339,000 of deferred
Board of Director compensation. The balance of the proceeds is being used to
meet working capital needs.
Upon consummation of the AIP Investment and satisfaction of other
conditions, including certain labor and creditor concessions, the Company
entered into certain arrangements with American pursuant to which American and
the Company agreed to, among other things, the following:
(i) The payment of (x) $10.0 million of deferred aircraft lease rents,
aircraft maintenance payments and accrued interest thereon under the
Aircraft Lease Agreement and (y) the reimbursement of fees and expenses
incurred by American in connection with the transaction through the
issuance by the Company to American of the $10.25 million American Note,
which is secured by certain assets of the Company. The American Note
bears interest at 10.0% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears, and has
a final maturity date of September 11, 2001. The American Note requires
repayment of principal equal to one-sixth of the original principal
amount on each anniversary of its date of issuance (January 31). The
Company has the option to prepay the American Note for $9.15 million at
any time before January 31, 1997 or may prepay it at any time
thereafter, in whole or in part, at its remaining principal balance,
without premium. In addition, the American Note is prepayable in full,
at the option of the holder, in the event and at the time that any
person or group (other than AIP) acquires more than 30.0% of the voting
interest in the Company;
The American Note is secured by a lien on substantially all of the
personal property of the Company through December 31, 1997. This lien is
a first priority lien except that it is junior to (x) liens of security
deposits held by credit card processors and (y) liens securing up to
$15.0 million in obligations of the Company consisting of (A) secured
obligations of the Company (other than credit card processor security
deposit liens) existing on the date of issuance of the American Note,
and (B) additional secured obligations of the Company incurred after
such issuance. As of March 31, 1996, in addition to its credit card
deposits, the Company had $7.3 million in secured obligations (including
all amounts under the Credit Facility), the liens of which are prior to
the lien of the American Note. On and after January 1, 1998, the Company
is obligated to secure the American Note and the other obligations
53
<PAGE>
of the Company to American with a first priority lien on identified
assets with a fair market value (supported by an appraisal) of at least
125.0% of the remaining outstanding principal balance of the American
Note as valued from time to time;
(ii) Basic rents under the Aircraft Lease Agreement have been reduced by
approximately 28.0% for a period of three years, at which time basic
rents would revert back to 1995 levels. The Company has agreed to pay a
minimum monthly charge for maintenance services and basic rents and
maintenance charges are payable monthly in arrears rather than weekly
in advance. American has the right to terminate its obligation to
provide aircraft maintenance services on and after January 1, 1999 upon
180 days prior notice; and
(iii) American's relinquishment of $2.0 million of letters of credit which
secured the Company's obligations to American under the Aircraft Lease
Agreement. The termination of these letters of credit increased the
Company's borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility.
The arrangements with American have provided the Company with substantial
benefits. The payment through the American Note of $10.0 million of deferred
rents and maintenance payments and accrued interest thereon otherwise due on
February 7, 1996 effectively permits the Company to make such payments in
installments over the period from January 1997 to September 2001, thereby
freeing up working capital for other purposes. In addition, basic rents under
the Aircraft Lease Agreement have been reduced by approximately 28.0% for three
years, resulting in lower aircraft operating costs. Furthermore, the release by
American of the security deposit letters of credit resulted in $2.0 million of
borrowing capacity becoming available to the Company under the Credit Facility.
Upon consummation of the AIP Investment and satisfaction of certain other
conditions, amendments to the labor agreements for each of the Company's labor
unions became effective. The modifications to the labor agreements extended the
amendable date of all five contracts from February 28, 1997 to February 28,
2000. Each of the five unions agreed to certain economic concessions, which
include cancellation of certain scheduled pay increases, with new pay increases
to be effective December 1, 1998 and January 1, 2000. Management expects that
these concessions will result in cash operating expenses, before profit sharing
costs, for 1996, 1997, 1998 and 1999 being approximately $3.6 million, $7.6
million, $8.0 million and $5.5 million less, respectively, than otherwise would
have been the case, based on the Company's flight schedule as of June 1996. In
exchange for the wage concessions, the Company has agreed to negotiate
gain-sharing programs to provide employees the opportunity to receive wage rate
increases resulting from work rule and productivity modifications, which produce
cost savings to the Company. In addition, the Company has agreed to establish a
profit bonus plan, which would provide all employees (other than senior
management) with cash bonuses if the Company achieves certain pre-tax profit
targets. The estimated cash operating expense savings noted above do not include
estimated costs associated with these gain sharing and profit bonus plan
initiatives. The contracts as modified provide additional furlough protection to
employees under certain specified circumstances. The Company and unions also
agreed to include certain additional low-cost or no-cost provisions that are
specific to each of the respective union contracts.
AUTHORIZED CAPITAL STOCK; WARRANTS AND OPTIONS. In connection with the AIP
Investment, the Articles of Incorporation were amended to increase the
authorized number of shares of Common Stock from 40,000,000 shares to 60,000,000
shares. The increase in the number of authorized shares allows the Company to
have a sufficient number of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock to
permit the exercise of Rights under the Rights Offering and the issuance of the
Committed Shares and ensures that the Company will have, from time to time, an
adequate number of authorized and unissued shares available for corporate
purposes, such as future public and private equity offerings.
In connection with the arrangements with American described above, the
Company issued the AMR Warrants, which entitle AMR to acquire up to 1,897,946
shares of Common Stock at $1.10 per share. Half of the AMR Warrants are
immediately exercisable, but the balance will only be exercisable
54
<PAGE>
if American and the Company enter into a code sharing agreement by January 1,
1997 regarding the placement of the two letter flight designator code for
American's flights on the Company's Interisland flights. The AMR Warrants expire
on September 11, 2001.
Pursuant to the Reorganization Plan, the Company granted the Reorganization
Warrants to certain individuals, which originally entitled such individuals to
purchase 989,011 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $2.73 per share.
Pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions of the Reorganization Warrants, upon
the consummation of the AIP Investment, the exercise price of the Reorganization
Warrants was adjusted to $1.71 per share and the holders of the Reorganization
Warrants received additional warrants to purchase 587,356 shares of Common Stock
exercisable at $1.71 per share. The holders of the Reorganization Warrants have
waived the anti-dilution provisions thereof in connection with the AMR Warrants
and the Rights.
The purchase by Investors of Committed Shares and Standby Shares may give
rise to an increase in the number of AMR Warrants and Reorganization Warrants
and a decrease in the exercise price thereof pursuant to the anti-dilution
provisions of the AMR Warrants and the Reorganization Warrants. However, the
magnitude of these adjustments can not be determined until after the Investor
Offering is completed.
Options to acquire 600,000 shares of Common Stock were granted in 1995 and
1996 pursuant to the terms of the 1994 Stock Option Plan. The exercise price is
$1.62 per share. As a result of an amendment to the 1994 Stock Option Plan in
connection with the AIP Investment, the Option exercise period with respect to
592,500 of the Options was extended to February 2, 2005. This amendment resulted
in a new measurement date for the Options awarded in 1995, and as a result, the
Company recorded approximately $782,000 of noncash compensation expense in
January 1996. The balance of the Options expire on May 1, 2006. To date, no
Options have been exercised.
The 1996 Stock Incentive Plan provides for discretionary option grants to
the Company's employees. There are 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock reserved for
issuance under the 1996 Stock Incentive Plan, which expires in 2006. No options
have been granted under this plan.
Except for shares of Common Stock that have been reserved in connection with
the Reorganization Warrants, the 1994 Stock Option Plan, the Plan of
Reorganization, the AMR Warrants, the Rights Offering, the Investor Offering and
the 1996 Stock Incentive Plan, the Company has no present agreements or
commitments to issue any additional shares of Common Stock.
TAX AND NET OPERATING LOSS CONSIDERATIONS
The Company believes that the AIP Investment and related transactions
resulted in an "ownership change" of the Company for purposes of Section 382 of
the Internal Revenue Code. An ownership change under Section 382 results in an
annual limitation (the "Section 382 Limitation") on the amount of pre-ownership
change NOLs of the Company that can be used to offset the Company's taxable
income for periods following the ownership change.
Based on values used by the Company in preparing its 1994 federal income tax
return, the Company's Section 382 Limitation that generally applied to all NOLs
attributable to the period prior to the ownership change that resulted from the
Company's bankruptcy reorganization (the "Old Limitation") was approximately
$2.4 million, plus certain "built-in" income items that increase the Section 382
Limitation. The Company currently believes that the ownership change resulting
from the AIP Investment and its related transactions resulted in a new Section
382 Limitation (the "New Limitation") of approximately $1.7 million, plus
certain "built-in" income items that increase the Section 382 Limitation. The
Company believes that, for federal income tax purposes, it has approximately
$130 million of NOLs subject to the New Limitation.
55
<PAGE>
Subsequent changes in the Company's share ownership by "5 percent
shareholders" (as defined in Section 382, and which includes certain "public
groups"), whether by reason of the exercise of Rights or otherwise, could result
in another Section 382 Limitation to which any NOLs incurred prior to such
ownership change would be subject.
See "Risk Factors -- Effect of Rights and Related Transactions on the
Company's Net Operating Loss Carryovers" and Note 9 to the financial statements
appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
LONG-LIVED ASSETS. In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(the "FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (the "SFAS") No.
121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets
to Be Disposed Of." SFAS No. 121 requires that long-lived assets and certain
identifiable intangible assets held and used by an entity be reviewed for
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the future cash flows
expected to result from use of the asset (undiscounted and without interest
charges) are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is
recognized. Measurement of that loss is based on the fair value of the asset.
SFAS No. 121 also requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable
intangible assets to be disposed of be reported at the lower of the asset
carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell.
The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 121 on January 1, 1996. The
adoption of SFAS No. 121 did not have a material effect on the Company's
financial condition or results of operations.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION. In October 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." SFAS No. 123 establishes a new, fair
value-based method of accounting for stock-based compensation, but does not
require an entity to adopt the new method for purposes of preparing its basic
financial statements. For entities not adopting the new method, SFAS No. 123

BUSINESS
Hawaiian Airlines is the largest airline headquartered in Hawaii, based on
operating revenues of $346.9 million for 1995. The Company is engaged primarily
in the scheduled transportation of passengers, cargo and mail over a route
system that services the six major islands of the State of Hawaii (I.E.,
Interisland) and Las Vegas and four key U.S. West Coast gateway cities, Los
Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle and Portland (I.E., Transpac). In addition,
Hawaiian Airlines provides the only direct service from Hawaii to Pago Pago,
American Samoa and Papeete, Tahiti (I.E., Southpac). The Company also provides
charter service from Honolulu to Las Vegas. Hawaiian Airlines (i) is one of two
dominant Interisland air carriers in Hawaii, (ii) is the third largest air
carrier between the U.S. mainland and Hawaii based on 3.17 billion RPMs in 1995
(3.6 billion combined RPMs and charter passenger miles), (iii) has one of the
highest load factors in the United States with an overall scheduled load factor
of 74.8% in 1995 and (iv) has, management believes, one of the lowest cost
structures in the industry. Furthermore, Hawaiian Airlines has been rated one of
the ten best airlines in the U.S. for five consecutive years in a national
travel magazine reader's poll on the basis of scheduling, punctuality, cabin
comfort/service, food and baggage handling. The Company operates a fleet of 13
DC-9 aircraft and eight DC-10 aircraft (a ninth DC-10 aircraft is being used on
a temporary basis to permit the scheduled overhaul of six of the other DC-10s
during 1996).
STRATEGIC REPOSITIONING
Since their arrival at the Company approximately three years ago, the
Company's current senior management team has conducted a strategic repositioning
of Hawaiian Airlines designed to improve its overall operating and financial
performance. The primary objectives of this repositioning were to (i) control
and reduce operating costs, (ii) restructure the Company's balance sheet and
obtain additional liquidity through a recapitalization and (iii) enhance the
Company's operating revenues through strategic alliances and certain other
opportunities. Management believes that the strategic repositioning has
significantly improved the Company's operations, balance sheet and financial
performance by reducing aircraft and labor costs and providing additional
liquidity. Moreover, this repositioning has allowed the Company to eliminate its
historical dependence on ticket discounting to generate capital, and has allowed
management to focus its attention on the pursuit and implementation of its
long-term operating strategy and the identification and pursuit of potential
growth opportunities.
COST REDUCTION PROGRAMS
As part of its strategic repositioning, the Company has effected a number of
significant changes to the two major components of its operating costs (aircraft
and labor) that have contributed to the Company's CTASM being reduced from
$0.085 for 1993 to $0.075 for 1995, which, management believes, is among the
lowest CTASMs in the airline industry.
REDUCED AIRCRAFT EXPENSE. When current management arrived at the Company
beginning in June 1993, Hawaiian Airlines' fleet consisted of DC-9 aircraft and
inefficient and costly DC-8, DHC-7 and L-1011 aircraft. By 1993, Hawaiian
Airlines' seven unit L-1011 fleet had become increasingly expensive to maintain
as a result of a lack of manufacturer support from Lockheed (which had ceased
its commercial airplane business) and an extremely limited number of sources for
heavy maintenance. Hawaiian Airlines also found itself facing cash requirements
for mandatory heavy maintenance checks and aging aircraft work on the L-1011
airframes of $15 million over a span of approximately 15 months, and the L-1011
lessors declined to finance the work. After several months of discussions
directed at obtaining relief from its liabilities and a source of working
capital, the Company filed for protection under U.S. bankruptcy laws in
September 1993 and rejected the L-1011 leases.
In 1993 and during 1994, Hawaiian Airlines made important changes in its
aircraft fleet. The Company phased out its DC-8, DHC-7 and L-1011 aircraft and
transitioned to a lower cost and more efficient aircraft fleet. The Company now
operates two equipment types -- McDonnell Douglas DC-10-10 aircraft, for
overseas routes, and McDonnell Douglas DC-9-50 aircraft, for Interisland
57
<PAGE>
routes. This transition has resulted in a more standardized fleet of aircraft
types, which has had, and the Company believes should continue to have, a
favorable effect on parts, maintenance and engineering costs.
The Company's nine DC-10 aircraft are all leased to Hawaiian Airlines by
American. Six of the aircraft are leased pursuant to the Aircraft Lease
Agreement, which calls for fixed monthly rental payments with no cost
escalations during its approximately six year remaining term. A seventh aircraft
is leased under substantially similar terms with the same expiration date. The
other two aircraft are leased pursuant to short-term lease arrangements that are
terminable by American on 30 days notice. In addition, American is providing
virtually all-inclusive maintenance, repair and overhaul services on the DC-10
aircraft for a fixed rate per flight hour. Included in these services is access
to American's stock of spare parts and spare engines. The result is a major
reduction in overall maintenance expenses compared to the previous L-1011
operation and a reduction in the capital tied up in parts and engines.
Furthermore, in conjunction with the AIP Investment, the Aircraft Lease
Agreement was amended to reduce DC-10 rents by approximately 28.0% for three
years.
Although the Company incurred significant nonrecurring expenses in 1994 due
to the reconfiguration of its aircraft fleet, the Company estimates that, as a
result of the transition to DC-10 aircraft and the amendment to the Aircraft
Lease Agreement, its cash outlays for rent, fuel, maintenance and capitalized
overhaul and spare parts from 1996 to 2000 will average $15.5 million per year
less than would have been the case if the Company had retained its old fleet,
based on miles flown in 1995. The Company estimates that the transition to
DC-10s produced a savings of approximately $7.8 million in direct operating
costs for 1995, including (i) aircraft and spare engine rent, (ii) fuel, oil and
taxes, (iii) outside services maintenance and materials and (iv) maintenance
labor. Additionally, the Company expects that its annual capitalized
expenditures will be an average of $7.7 million lower with the DC-10 aircraft
than with the L-1011 aircraft.
LABOR-RELATED CONCESSIONS AND INCREASED PRODUCTIVITY. Over the past several
years, the Company has also obtained important concessions under the collective
bargaining agreements with its employees. In September 1993, the Company reached
agreement with all employee groups for revised labor agreements which resulted
in cash savings of approximately $10 million in 1994 and $10 million in 1995 and
which, along with other productivity improvement initiatives, are estimated to
result in further cash savings through 1999. Additional modifications to the
labor agreements were completed in conjunction with the AIP Investment in
January 1996, which modifications are estimated to result in cash operating
expenses for 1996, 1997, 1998 and 1999 being approximately $3.6 million, $7.6
million, $8.0 million and $5.5 million less, respectively, than would otherwise
be the case, based on the Company's flight schedule as of June 1996. In
addition, the amendable dates of all of the Company's collective bargaining
agreements have been extended from February 1997 to February 2000. The
modifications reflect certain economic concessions by the Company's labor
unions, including cancellation of certain scheduled pay increases with new pay
increases to be effective December 1, 1998 and January 1, 2000. In exchange for
the wage concessions, the Company agreed to negotiate gain-sharing programs to
provide employees the opportunity to receive wage rate increases resulting from
work rule and productivity modifications that produce cost savings to the
Company. In addition, the Company agreed to establish a profit bonus plan, which
would provide all employees (other than senior management) with cash bonuses if
the Company achieves certain pre-tax profit targets. The estimated cash
operating expense savings noted above do not include estimated costs associated
with these gain sharing and profit bonus plan initiatives. The contracts as
modified provide additional furlough protection to employees under certain
specified circumstances. The Company and the unions also agreed to include
certain additional low-cost or no-cost provisions that are specific to each of
the respective union contracts.
Furthermore, in an effort to improve employee productivity, the Company
reduced average staffing levels by 6% from 2,271 employees (on a full-time
equivalent basis or "FTE") during 1993 to 2,141 employees during 1995, while
increasing TASMs by 21% between 1993 to 1995. Comparing 1995
58
<PAGE>
with 1993, employee productivity based on TASMs per FTE employee improved by
28%. Additionally, between 1993 and 1995, employee productivity measured by
wages and benefits per TASM improved by 12% in current dollars and 20% in
constant dollars.
The following table presents employee productivity statistics for 1993, 1994
and 1995:

- ------------------------
(1) Presented on a pro forma basis assuming the rates in effect in January,

In an effort to further reduce labor costs, during the first quarter of
1995, the Company offered an early retirement program to qualified participants
in the defined benefit pension plans for the IAM and salaried employees.
Elections by qualified participants were completed with early retirements
scheduled to commence in the second quarter of 1995. Reflected in the financial
results for 1995 is a noncash early retirement provision of $2.0 million
representing the estimated effects of this early retirement program on the
Company's pension and postretirement benefit obligations as of March 31, 1995.
The Company expects savings in labor and benefit costs in excess of $500,000 per
year over the next four years as a result of this program.
RECAPITALIZATION
In response to the financial difficulties experienced by the Company in the
early 1990s, Hawaiian Airlines voluntarily commenced a Chapter 11 bankruptcy
reorganization in September 1993. Pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, the
Company emerged from bankruptcy on September 12, 1994. While the Plan of
Reorganization allowed the Company to convert approximately $205 million in
unsecured obligations into equity and institute a number of cost savings
measures, including the significant restructuring and simplification of its
fleet of aircraft, Hawaiian Airlines emerged from bankruptcy with limited
liquidity. To address its on-going liquidity needs, during 1995 the Company
developed a plan to (i) secure an equity infusion from a private capital source,
(ii) restructure and improve its relationship with American and (iii) effect a
rights offering to its existing shareholders to provide further liquidity and
strength to its balance sheet.
RESTRUCTURING THE BALANCE SHEET AND OBTAINING ADDITIONAL LIQUIDITY. On
January 31, 1996, the Company achieved the first two of its liquidity
enhancement objectives through the completion of the AIP Investment, a $20
million direct equity investment by AIP, and the amendment of the Aircraft Lease
Agreement. This amendment accomplished a number of objectives including the
settling of certain lease and maintenance obligations under the Aircraft Lease
Agreement that became delinquent in December 1994 and during the first quarter
of 1995 and were then deferred by American. These obligations were satisfied
through the delivery of the American Note. In addition, American released a $2
million security deposit that was posted at the commencement of the Aircraft
Lease Agreement. In connection with these arrangements with American, the
Company issued the AMR Warrants, which entitle AMR to purchase up to 1,897,946
shares of Common Stock at $1.10 per share. One-half of the AMR Warrants are
immediately exercisable, but the balance will only be exercisable if American
and the Company enter into a code sharing agreement by January 1, 1997 regarding
the placement of the two letter flight designator code for American's flights on
the Company's Interisland flights.
59
<PAGE>
THE RIGHTS OFFERING. Finally, in recognition of the substantial dilutive
effect of the AIP Investment on the existing shareholders of the Company, AIP
agreed to use its best efforts to cause the Company, after completion of the AIP
Investment, to make a rights offering to the Company's shareholders other than
AIP. In addition to reducing the dilutive effect of the AIP Investment on the
other shareholders, the Rights Offering is intended to achieve the Company's
third liquidity enhancement objective by improving the Company's working capital
position with the net proceeds of the Rights Offering.
ENHANCE OPERATING REVENUES
RELATIONSHIP WITH AMERICAN. Hawaiian Airlines' relationship with American
is a key element in the Company's operating strategy. In addition to leasing and
maintaining the Company's DC-10 aircraft (see "Properties" below), American
provides various services and benefits to the Company, including computer
services, licensing of reservations system and participation in the
AAdvantage-Registered Trademark- frequent flyer program and the
SABRE-Registered Trademark- reservation system.
Effective May 1994, Hawaiian Airlines became a participating carrier in
American's AAdvantage-Registered Trademark- frequent flyer program. This
participation makes the Company more competitive by allowing travelers on
Hawaiian Airlines to accrue mileage in the AAdvantage-Registered Trademark-
program, and also allows the more than 32 million AAdvantager members to redeem
their program miles for free or reduced-rate travel on Hawaiian Airlines'
flights. The addition of a major airline frequent flyer program is intended to
have a positive impact on load factors on the Company's flights, both by
attracting passengers who would otherwise fly on other carriers in order to
obtain frequent flyer benefits and by adding passengers who redeem awards for
travel on Hawaiian Airlines. The Company's participation in the
AAdvantage-Registered Trademark- program will expire in 1997 unless extended by
mutual agreement.
In April 1994, the Company completed its conversion to
SABRE-Registered Trademark-, American's computerized reservations system, which
is used by more than 20 major travel providers in 70 countries, contains flight
schedules of more than 650 airlines that serve more than 986,000 city pairs and
also contains information on more than 45 million point-to-point airfares.
SABRE-Registered Trademark- allows other computerized reservation systems
("CRS") to sell and generate tickets for the Company's flights.
SABRE-Registered Trademark- has increased awareness of Hawaiian Airlines to
travel agents and informs its users of last seat availability on Hawaiian
Airlines' flights, which maximizes exposure of flights. The extra flights that
the Company schedules during peak periods are also available for sale by travel
providers through SABRE-Registered Trademark-. SABRE-Registered Trademark- also
provides address verification of credit card users, which may reduce potential
fraud when ticket mailing is requested. The Company's participation in
SABRE-Registered Trademark- expires in 2001.
The Company, through the creation of Hawaiian Airlines Vacations, has
contracted with FlyAAway-Registered Trademark- Vacations, the tour operations
unit of American and the world's largest airline-owned tour operator, to
develop, market and manage a line of package tours to all six major Hawaiian
Islands. Hawaiian Airlines Vacations offers packages designed for a range of
budgets, featuring accommodations at a variety of leading Hawaiian hotels and
condominiums for three to seven or more nights. Hawaiian Airlines Vacations also
markets the Hawaiian Airlines Island Pass, a popular product that offers
unlimited air travel among the Hawaiian Islands for specific time periods at a
set price. Air travel to and among the islands as part of the tours is provided
by Hawaiian Airlines.
NEW STRATEGIC ALLIANCES. On May 22, 1996, the Company entered into a
cooperative marketing agreement with Northwest, which provides for extensive
marketing cooperation, including a code sharing arrangement, coordinated airport
customer service and frequent flyer program cooperation. Under the code sharing
arrangement, a Northwest flight code will appear in travel agent computers on
many of Hawaiian Airlines' flights between Honolulu and several of the other
Hawaiian islands. Northwest will coordinate its flight schedules to Honolulu to
provide convenient connections to the Company's Interisland flights. Northwest
passengers will enjoy "seamless service" from their point of origin to their
final Hawaiian Airlines destination through features such as issuance of all
boarding
60
<PAGE>
passes and luggage tags at initial check-in and credit in Northwest's frequent
flyer program for all flight mileage on Northwest and Northwest-coded Hawaiian
Airlines flights. Northwest has an extensive flight schedule to Honolulu from
both the U.S. mainland and Japan.
The Company signed a memorandum of understanding with Mahalo in May 1996,
pursuant to which the Company expects to be able to put its flight code on
Mahalo's five daily flights between Honolulu and Molokai starting July 1, 1996.
This would enable the Company to offer an expanded flight schedule to Molokai
without incurring expansion costs. The memorandum of understanding also
contemplates that the Company will provide certain airport services to Mahalo.
These arrangements are subject to the Company and Mahalo reaching agreement on
the terms of a definitive contract and no assurance can be given that the
parties will be able to agree on such terms. Mahalo, which commenced service in
October 1993, utilizes six ATR-42 aircraft with an average schedule of
approximately 65 daily flights.
REORGANIZED ROUTE STRUCTURE. The Company's present route strategy is
designed to maximize the utilization of its aircraft in markets where the
Company believes it has a competitive advantage and to limit its commitments in
other markets. In contrast, prior management attempted to achieve increased
market share through broad-based growth. Current management believes that the
fluctuating route structure that resulted from prior management's strategy led
to an uneven revenue stream and poor operating results.
Over the past three years, the Company has adjusted its schedules and
created new routes after analyzing market demand. The Company adjusted its
schedules between Honolulu and Los Angeles, San Francisco, Las Vegas and
American Samoa during peak and off-peak periods to maximize capacity and
passenger load. The Company's commencement of scheduled service between Honolulu
and Portland and its increase in scheduled service between Honolulu and Los
Angeles to three flights daily and between Honolulu and Las Vegas from two
flights per week to seven flights per week, via Los Angeles, are examples of
such improvements in scheduling and capacity. In the Interisland market, the
Company introduced its Island Shuttle service in August 1993, with departures
between Honolulu and Maui every half hour and between Honolulu and Kauai every
hour.
ENHANCED MARKETING PROGRAM. The Company has entered into several joint
marketing campaigns with key partners to increase the effectiveness and
efficiency of advertising expenditures. Since the last quarter of 1994 Hawaiian
Airlines has participated in cooperative television and print campaigns with the
Hawaii Visitors Bureau and Waikiki Oahu Visitor Association ("WOVA"). In 1996,
the Company has participated in two campaigns with American Express Travel
Related Services Co., Inc. ("American Express"), advertising in READER'S DIGEST,
TRAVEL & LEISURE, SUNSET, DEPARTURES and other magazines. The first campaign, in
conjunction with WOVA and Pleasant Hawaiian Holidays, and the second, in
conjunction with the Maui Visitors Bureau and Classic Custom Vacations, routed
consumer calls to the nearest American Express retail office. These campaigns
are targeted and measurable, are believed to be efficient and are expected to
continue to represent the basis of the Company's promotional effort.
The Company is installing a computer video system on its DC-9 aircraft which
will provide information to passengers and offer limited advertising from
overhead, compact video screens. The system has been installed on two aircraft,
and the Company expects that all of its DC-9s will have the system by the end of
1996. Hawaiian Airlines is the first airline in the world to use a computerized
CD-ROM system, and the only airline in Hawaii featuring in-flight video. The
system is being installed at no cost to the Company by Canadian Marconi Company
and ASI Technology Pty Ltd. of Australia, which will derive revenue through
limited advertising.
IMPROVED CUSTOMER SERVICE. The Company continues to concentrate on customer
service as the Company believes the quality of customer service has a direct
impact on its market share. Higher levels of performance have been achieved for
catering, passenger handling and on-time performance. In addition, seven of the
DC-10 aircraft have refurbished interiors, as do many of the DC-9s. In 1993, the
Company began leasing space in a new terminal at the Honolulu Airport for all
its Interisland
61
<PAGE>
flights to and from Honolulu. This consolidation allows the Company to (i)
perform passenger check-in at one location, (ii) provide better service on
Interisland routes and (iii) more conveniently connect passengers from overseas
flights to the Interisland routes. The Company plans to consolidate check-in and
baggage claim for all its flights to and from Honolulu in the new terminal by
the end of 1996. The Company plans to improve movement of connecting passengers
between its Interisland and overseas terminal, and thereby reduce some
connecting times to other airlines in order to improve its competitive position.
In recent years, the Company has achieved a number of significant operating
improvements, particularly with regard to on-time performance and reliability
and customer satisfaction. Hawaiian Airlines' on-time performance, based on an
allowed five-minute variance for Interisland flights and fifteen-minute variance
for overseas flights, was 91.5% and 91.9% for the twelve-month periods ended
December 31, 1994 and 1995, respectively, which is better than the industry's
1994 on-time performance of 81.5%, which industry percentage not only allows for
a fifteen-minute variance but also excludes delays caused by maintenance. Due in
large part to these operational improvements, marketing initiatives and
increased capacity, management estimates that Hawaiian Airlines' share of the
Interisland RPM market increased from a low of 34.1% in October 1991 to an
average of 41.3% in 1995 and management estimated that its Transpac market
position has risen from sixth in 1991 to third in 1995, based on RPMs.
Management believes that the result of its initiatives in customer service
has been to improve travelers' overall perception of the airline. Hawaiian
Airlines was rated one of the ten best airlines in the United States for the
fifth consecutive year in CONDE NAST TRAVELER'S 1995 Readers' Choice Awards on
the basis of scheduling, punctuality, cabin comfort/service, food and baggage
handling. In May 1995, Hawaiian Airlines was awarded the 1995 Onboard Services
Award presented annually to airlines with innovative and excellent onboard
service programs by ONBOARD SERVICES, an international trade publication.
Hawaiian Airlines won the top award in the food service category for its first
class service over British Airways and Air Canada, among other major
international carriers. Previous winners of the award include United (1991), MGM
Grand Air (1992), Saudi Arabian Airlines (1993) and Northwest (1994).
The Company has continued to use vouchers, primarily in the Interisland
market, due to demand from the traveling public. Vouchers are more flexible than
normal airline ticket stock as they may be purchased in bulk, have no
prerequisite date of use or prespecified origin and destination and are
generally valid for one year from date of issuance.
LONG-TERM STRATEGY AND POTENTIAL GROWTH
Hawaiian Airlines is committed to becoming the first air carrier of choice
for travel to, from and among the Hawaiian Islands. The Company's strategy for
achieving this objective is based upon the following:
(i) INTERISLAND. Return the Company to its historic role as the leading
Interisland air carrier through (a) maintaining and improving its low cost
structure, (b) expanding its capacity and scheduling, particularly through
the Island Shuttle, and (c) forming strategic marketing agreements with
other air carriers, including the use of code sharing arrangements and
frequent flyer programs.
(ii) TRANSPAC. Expand its role as one of the major air carriers from its key
West Coast gateway cities through (a) maintaining and improving its position
as a low-cost scheduled carrier, (b) forming strategic marketing agreements
with other air carriers, including the use of code sharing arrangements and
frequent flyer programs, and (c) capitalizing on the unique "Hawaiian
Experience" provided by Hawaiian Airlines.
(iii) NICHE MARKETS. Dominate the local Hawaii market to Las Vegas in both
scheduled flights and charter service through maintaining and increasing its
scheduled and charter service.
(iv) SOUTHPAC. Maintain its dominant position in the Southpac market.
62
<PAGE>
The Company believes that it may have opportunities for continued growth
through (i) initiating direct service from its key West Coast gateway cities to
neighboring Hawaiian islands not currently served by the Company from the West
Coast, (ii) carrying passengers originating from other U.S. western and
southwestern cities through code sharing arrangements with regional mainland
carriers, (iii) carrying more Interisland passengers originating from Pacific
Rim countries such as Japan, South Korea and China by developing new or expanded
relationships with carriers based in Asia, (iv) securing joint marketing and
strategic code sharing relationships with other major and regional air carriers,
(v) increasing the utilization of the Company's existing assets by providing
ground handling and/or other services for other air carriers in Hawaii, (vi)
capitalizing on the increased business travel to Hawaii expected to result from
the new Hawaii Convention Center anticipated to open in Spring 1998 and (vii)
increasing the scope of its advertising strategy through cooperative marketing
programs with other Hawaii travel industry participants. However, no assurance
can be given that the Company will be able to successfully exploit any of the
foregoing strategies or opportunities.
The Company is seeking relationships with other airlines to establish
coordinated schedules and code sharing arrangements in the CRS similar to the
arrangement it now has with Northwest. In the CRS, on-line connections
(connections involving a single carrier or carriers with code sharing
arrangements) are given significant preferential treatment over off-line
connections (those connections involving multiple carriers without code sharing
arrangements). Travel agents' increased accessibility to the Company's flight
schedule could result in increased load factors at virtually no marginal cost,
resulting in enhanced revenue yields and incremental operating income. No
assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in obtaining any
additional marketing or code sharing arrangements.
THE HAWAII TRAVEL MARKET
The Company believes that Hawaii is one of the most popular destinations for
passengers flying on frequent flyer travel awards and is in general a popular
spot for vacation travelers. As such, Hawaiian Airlines typically experiences
strong travel periods during June, July, August and December. Fare levels and
load factors are higher during these peak travel periods. Conversely, Hawaiian
Airlines typically experiences weaker travel periods during January, May,
September and October with reduced fare levels and lower load factors.
Aggressive fare pricing strategies that increase the availability and size of
ticket discounts are utilized during weaker travel periods.
During the recessionary period commencing in 1990, Hawaii's visitor counts
decreased from over 6.9 million in 1990 to 6.1 million in 1993 as the Hawaiian
tourism industry experienced three consecutive years of decline during which its
two largest sources of visitors, California and Japan, both entered the worst
recession each region has experienced since the 1940s.
Preliminary 1995 statistics from the Hawaii Visitors Bureau reflect an
increase of 3.2% in visitor arrivals over 1994. Eastbound arrivals increased by
9.2% to reach a record level. Westbound arrivals in 1995 experienced a 0.5%
decrease over 1994, with strong increases in the Pacific Northwest (6.9%), the
Mountain Region (6.2%) and the West North Central Region (4.5%). California,
plagued by economic setbacks, produced 3.8% fewer Westbound visitors in 1995 but
still represents the major source of business for Hawaii with 1.23 million
Westbound arrivals in 1995, 17.4% lower than the peak of 1.49 million in 1990.
First time visitors, representing 44.6% of all visitors, increased by 0.9%.
The 6.63 million visitors in 1995 brought total arrivals to levels
experienced in 1989, but are still 4.8% lower than the peak of 6.97 million
recorded in 1990. Westbound arrivals reached 4.0 million in 1995, 15.7% lower
than the 4.72 million recorded in 1990, while Eastbound arrivals reached 2.66
million in 1995, which represents a 4.8% increase over the all-time high of 2.53
million recorded in 1992. The following chart summarizes the growth in visitor
arrivals from 1968 through 1995.

Source: Hawaii Visitors Bureau.
Preliminary visitor arrival information from the Hawaii Visitors Bureau for
the first quarter of 1996 compared to the first quarter of 1995 shows total
visitor arrivals increased by 9.5% to approximately 1.75 million with westbound
arrivals increasing by 4.4% to approximately 1.05 million and eastbound arrivals
increasing by 18.2% to approximately 700,000. Westbound arrivals from California
increased by 5.7%, while arrivals from Oregon and Washington decreased by 3.2%
and 9.7%, respectively. Total visitors from Oahu to any neighbor island
increased by 3.2%.
Tourist counts have shown year over year improvements in 1994 and 1995.
Local economists project moderate growth for the next two years, with the Hawaii
tourism industry returning to pre-recession visitor counts in 1997. However, no
assurance can be given that the level of tourism traffic to Hawaii will in fact
return to pre-recession levels or that it will not decline in the future.
Hawaii tourism is affected by the state of the economies of areas from which
tourists to Hawaii typically originate, such as Japan and California. In
addition, from time to time various external events such as the Persian Gulf War
and the Kobe earthquake, as well as industry-specific problems such as strikes,
may adversely effect tourism to Hawaii. Furthermore, factors such as the
devaluation of the Mexican peso and Hurricane Iniki may cause other tourist
destinations or opportunities to become more popular than Hawaii.
INTERISLAND TRAVEL MARKET. Management estimates that approximately 70% of
the Company's Interisland passengers are tourists. There is an upward trend in
the number of islands that vacationers visit when in Hawaii. The Hawaii Visitors
Bureau reports that in 1994 the total number of visitors traveling to multiple
islands was up 5.7% over the same period in 1993. Kauai reported the largest
gain due to recovery from Hurricane Iniki. The island of Hawaii experienced a
slight lag in total visitors, but Maui showed an increase of 1.4% over 1993. In
1995, the total number of visitors traveling to multiple islands increased by
1.0% over 1994. Kauai, Molokai and Lanai showed increases of 5.2%, 7.9% and
15.9%, respectively. At the same time, Maui and the island of Hawaii experienced
decreases of 2.1% and 0.3%, respectively.

(2) Preliminary.
OPERATIONS
The Company's passenger airline business is its chief source of revenue.
Scheduled passenger service consists of, on average, approximately 158 flights
per day among the six major islands of the State of Hawaii (I.E., Interisland),
daily service to Las Vegas and four key U.S. West Coast gateway cities (I.E.,
Transpac), and twice weekly service to Pago Pago, American Samoa and weekly
service to Papeete, Tahiti (I.E., Southpac). The Company also provides charter
service to Las Vegas.
INTERISLAND OPERATIONS
The entire Interisland market averages approximately nine million passengers
annually. Management estimates approximately two-thirds of Interisland travelers
are visitors to Hawaii while the balance are Hawaii residents. Residents rely on
Interisland flights in much the same way as mainland residents rely on a state
highway system. While there are several small commuter and air taxi companies
that provide air transportation to airports that cannot be served with large
aircraft, the Interisland market is serviced primarily by two carriers, Hawaiian
Airlines and Aloha.
The Company's Interisland operations provide service to seven airports on
the six major Hawaiian islands of Oahu, Hawaii, Maui, Kauai, Molokai and Lanai.
On August 1, 1993, the Company inaugurated the Hawaiian Airlines Island Shuttle,
which offers flights departing between Oahu and Maui every half hour and between
Oahu and Kauai every hour. At March 31, 1996, Hawaiian Airlines' Interisland
fleet consisted of 13 DC-9 aircraft. During 1995, the Interisland passenger
revenue represented approximately 35.2% of the Company's total operating
revenues.
The Company's primary competition in the Interisland market is Aloha, whose
competitive position is strengthened by its marketing affiliation with United,
the largest carrier of passengers to Hawaii. Aloha participates in United's
frequent flyer program and also has a code sharing agreement with United. Aloha
principally utilizes 16 Boeing 737 aircraft with a schedule that averages
approximately 190 flights, which service the same basic Interisland routes as
the Company. Hawaiian Airlines has approximately 158 Interisland flights per
day.
Mahalo commenced Interisland service from Honolulu to Kauai, Maui and Kona
in October 1993. Mahalo later added service between Honolulu and Molokai. Mahalo
utilizes six 46-passenger ATR-42 aircraft with an average schedule of
approximately 65 daily flights. Statistical information regarding Mahalo is not
available but management believes that, due to its limited capacity, Mahalo has
not had a significant impact on the Interisland market.
65
<PAGE>
Until the late 1980s, Hawaiian Airlines held a leading share of the
Interisland market. Following the Company's leveraged acquisition in 1989, the
Company experienced a decline in its market share, due to customer service
difficulties and management turnover, as well as a decline in its available seat
miles. Hawaiian Airlines' RPM market share reached a low of 34.1% in October
1991. The Company subsequently implemented a number of operating strategies to
improve its market share, including focusing on customer service, on-time
performance and schedule and lift availability. The Company also strengthened
its competitive position when it began participating in American's
AAdvantage-Registered Trademark- frequent flyer program in 1994. Based on the
Company's interpretation of certain available statistical information on Aloha
and excluding the effects of Mahalo, the Company believes that these programs
and improvements are the reason for an increase in its Interisland market share
from the low of October 1991 to an average of 40.8%, 41.1% and 41.3% in 1993,
1994 and 1995, respectively. Similar statistics for the first quarter of 1996
showed that Hawaiian Airlines' RPM market share was 42.4% compared with 42.8%
during the first quarter of 1995.

TRANSPAC OPERATIONS
During 1995, the Company's Transpac operations served Las Vegas and the U.S.
West Coast gateway cities of Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle and Portland.
At March 31, 1996, eight DC-10 aircraft were used to service Transpac routes. In
1995, Transpac passenger revenues represented approximately 45.0% of the
Company's total operating revenues.
The Company primarily competes with major carriers such as United, Delta,
Northwest and, to a lesser extent, Continental and American on its Transpac
routes. In addition to the competition produced by the major carriers, 1995 saw
continued competition from charter carriers in the Transpac market. The presence
of charter carriers has placed additional downward pressure on fares.
During 1995, Hawaiian Airlines flew approximately 967,000 passengers or 2.5
billion revenue passenger miles between Hawaii and the cities of Los Angeles,
San Francisco, Seattle, Las Vegas and Portland. Based on information filed with
the DOT, the Company believes that during 1995, Hawaiian Airlines maintained 19%
of both the available seat share and the passenger share and the position of
second in market share, based on those factors, for scheduled service in the
Transpac markets that it serves. The Company is the leading direct carrier
between Honolulu and each of Las Vegas and Portland based on ASMs. The Company
is also second in market share between Honolulu and Los Angeles, San Francisco
and Seattle on a combined basis based on ASMs.

SOUTHPAC OPERATIONS
Hawaiian Airlines currently is the sole carrier providing direct air service
from Honolulu to American Samoa and Tahiti. As a result of this lack of
competition, fares are relatively stable throughout the year. Southpac routes
are serviced with DC-10 aircraft. During 1995, Southpac passenger revenues
represented approximately 5.6% of the Company's total operating revenues.

OVERSEAS CHARTER
In addition to its regularly scheduled service to Las Vegas, Nevada, in
January 1995, the Company commenced, in association with a Hawaii tour operator,
charter service to Las Vegas. The Company operates six charter flights per week
utilizing DC-10 aircraft. The Company's overseas charter operation produced 6.4%
of the Company's total revenues in 1995.
AIRCRAFT FUEL
Aviation fuel is a significant expense for any air carrier and even marginal
changes in fuel prices can greatly impact a carrier's profitability. The
following table sets forth Hawaiian Airlines' aviation fuel consumption and cost
for each of the periods indicated:

</TABLE>
The single most important factor affecting petroleum product prices,
including the price of aviation fuel, continues to be the actions of the OPEC
countries in setting targets for the production and pricing of crude oil. In
addition, aviation fuel prices are affected by the markets for heating oil,
diesel fuel, automotive gasoline and natural gas. All petroleum product prices
continue to be subject to unpredictable economic, political and market factors.
Also, the balance among supply, demand and price has become more reactive to
world market conditions. Accordingly, the price and availability of aviation
fuel, as well as other petroleum products, continue to be unpredictable. In the
event of a fuel supply shortage resulting from a disruption of oil imports or
otherwise, higher fuel prices or curtailment of scheduled service could result.
A one cent change in the cost per gallon of fuel has an impact on the Company's
operating expenses of approximately $80,000 per month (based on first quarter
1996 consumption). Changes in fuel prices may have a greater impact on the
Company than certain of its Transpac competitors with more modern, fuel
efficient aircraft.
In 1993, new taxes were placed on the production of certain fuels based on
their energy content. The airlines industry received a two year moratorium from
the effects of such taxes. In October 1995, the industry, and therefore the
Company, became subject to an additional 4.3 cents per gallon tax which may
result in as much as $3.5 to $4.0 million per year in additional fuel expense to
the Company (based on 1995 consumption). During the first quarter of 1996, the
Company paid $1.1 million in fuel taxes. The Company cannot predict whether or
to what extent it has been or will be able to pass on
69
<PAGE>
such additional costs to its customers. Legislation to suspend the tax through
the end of 1996 has been approved by the U.S. House of Representatives and is
pending in the Senate. No assurance can be given that the legislation will be
adopted.
Although Hawaiian Airlines has contracts with several different fuel
suppliers, almost all of its aviation fuel is purchased from Northwest pursuant
to an agreement between the two companies which renews automatically on December
31 of each year unless canceled by either of the parties with 90 days' notice.
This agreement requires Northwest to provide Hawaiian Airlines with aviation
fuel at Northwest's actual acquisition cost without markup for profit and with
reimbursement only for out-of-pocket costs. Hawaiian Airlines is prohibited from
reselling such fuel. In case of shortages, Northwest will provide fuel to its
own fleet first and then a portion of the remaining fuel available, if any, will
be allocated between Hawaiian Airlines and any other applicable airlines.
Hawaiian Airlines paid Northwest approximately $44.1 million, $43.9 million and
$53.0 million for the fuel supplied under this agreement in 1993, 1994 and 1995,
respectively.
EMPLOYEES
As of March 31, 1996, Hawaiian Airlines had 2,401 employees, of which 2,049
were employed on a full-time basis. The majority of Hawaiian Airlines' employees
are covered by labor agreements with IAM, ALPA, AFA, TWU and the Communications
Section Employees Union. The Company believes that it maintains good relations
with its employees.
In connection with the AIP Investment, in January 1996 IAM, ALPA, AFA, TWU
and the Communications Section Employees Union ratified modifications to their
respective collective bargaining agreements. The unions agreed to certain
economic concessions, which include cancellation of certain scheduled pay
increases. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital Resources -- Current Status --
Recapitalization."
PROPERTIES
The Company leases office space for its headquarters, airport facilities,
ticket offices and certain ground equipment in varying terms to 2008.
The Company's fleet consists of nine DC-10-10 and 13 DC-9-50 aircraft. All
of the Company's aircraft are leased except for two DC-9s that are owned by the
Company. Of the DC-10s, six are leased under the Aircraft Lease Agreement, which
is an operating lease that expires in 2001. A seventh DC-10 aircraft was leased
in May 1996 under an operating lease with substantially similar terms and the
same expiration date as the Aircraft Lease Agreement. Two DC-10s are leased
under short-term operating leases, one of which expires in December 1996 and the
other of which expires at the earlier of May 1997 or when 2,600 hours remain
until the next FAA mandated major overhaul (IE, a C-check) is scheduled.
American has the option to terminate either of the two short-term leases with 30
days' written notice to the Company. Between May and November 1996, American
will perform C-checks on the six aircraft leased pursuant to the Aircraft Lease
Agreement, one aircraft at a time. During this period, one aircraft will be out
of service at all times so that the Company will be operating eight DC-10s. Of
the leased DC-9s (including related flight equipment), seven are leased under
operating leases and four are leased under capital leases that expire at various
times through the year 2004.

COMPETITION
The airline industry is highly competitive and susceptible to price
discounting, primarily due to the effects of the Transportation Act, which has
substantially eliminated government authority to regulate domestic routes and
fares, and has increased the ability of airlines to compete with respect to
destination, flight frequencies and fares. Airline profit levels are highly
sensitive to, and from 1990 to 1992 were severely impacted by, adverse changes
in fuel costs, average yield and passenger demand. The emergence in recent years
of several new carriers, typically with low cost structures, has further
increased the competitive pressures on U.S. airlines. Aircraft, skilled labor
and gates at most airports continue to be available to start-up carriers. In
some cases, the new entrants have initiated or triggered price discounting. The
commencement of service by new carriers on the Company's routes could negatively
impact the Company's operating results. Many of the Company's competitors are
larger and have substantially greater resources than the Company. Competing
airlines have, and may in the future, undercut the Company's fares and increase
capacity on routes beyond market demand in order to increase their market
shares. Such activity by other airlines could reduce fares or passenger traffic
to levels where profitable operations could not be achieved. Due to its smaller
size and limited liquidity, the Company may be less able to withstand aggressive
marketing tactics or a prolonged fare war initiated by its competitors.
Although the domestic airline industry has at present abandoned deeply
discounted general pricing structures, and fare levels have continued to
increase from 1992 levels, significant industry-
71
<PAGE>
wide discounts could be reimplemented at any time, and the introduction of
broadly available, deeply discounted fares by a major U.S. airline would result
in lower yields for the entire industry and could have a material adverse effect
on the Company's operating results.
Airlines are subject to a high degree of financial and operating leverage.
Due to high fixed costs, the expenses of each flight do not vary proportionately
with the number of passengers carried, but the revenues generated from a
particular flight are directly related to the number of passengers carried.
Accordingly, while a decrease in the number of passengers carried would cause a
corresponding decrease in revenue (if not offset by higher fares), it may result
in a disproportionately greater decrease in profits. However, an increase in the
number of passengers carried would have the opposite effect.
The airline industry is highly sensitive to general economic conditions.
Because a substantial portion of airline travel, both personal and to a lesser
extent business, is discretionary, the industry tends to experience severely
adverse financial results during general economic downturns. The operating and
financial results of the Company may be negatively impacted by any downturn in
national or regional economic conditions in the United States, particularly
California, and certain Asian countries, particularly Japan. Any prolonged
general reduction in airline passenger traffic may adversely affect the Company.
The airline industry is characterized by low gross profit margins and revenues
that vary to a substantially greater degree than do the related costs.
Accordingly, a significant shortfall from expected revenue levels could have a
material adverse affect on the Company's operations.
The Company's primary competition on its Interisland routes is Aloha, whose
competitive position is strengthened by its marketing affiliation with United.
Aloha participates in United's frequent flyer program and also has a code
sharing agreement with United. Aloha principally utilizes 16 Boeing 737 aircraft
with a schedule that averages approximately 190 flights which service the same
basic Interisland routes that the Company serves with approximately 158 flights.
The Company believes that Interisland competition is primarily based on fare
levels, flight frequency, on-time performance and reliability, name recognition,
frequent flyer programs, customer service and aircraft type. Until the late
1980s, Hawaiian Airlines held a leading share of the Interisland market but
following the Company's leveraged acquisition in 1989, the Company's RPM market
share declined to an estimated low of 34.1% in October 1991. The Company
subsequently implemented a number of operating strategies to improve its market
share, including focusing on customer service, on-time performance and schedule
and lift availability. The Company also strengthened its competitive position
when it began participating in American's AAdvantage-Registered Trademark-
frequent flyer program in 1994. Based on the Company's interpretation of certain
statistical information on Aloha and excluding the effects of Mahalo, the
Company believes that these programs and improvements are the reason for an
increase in its Interisland RPM market share to an estimated average of 41.3% in
1995. See "Operations -- Interisland Operations" above.
The Company competes on its Transpac routes primarily with United, Delta and
Northwest and to lesser extent with Continental and American, all of which are
larger and have substantially greater name recognition and resources than the
Company. The Company also experiences competition from various charter
operators. The Company believes that Transpac competition is primarily based on
fare levels, flight frequency, on-time performance and reliability, name
recognition, frequent flyer programs, customer service and in-flight service.
During 1995, Hawaiian Airlines flew approximately 967,000 passengers or 2.5
billion RPM between Hawaii and the cities of Los Angeles, San Francisco,
Seattle, Las Vegas and Portland. Based on information obtained from the State of
Hawaii Department of Transportation, the Company believes that based on the
number of flights during peak seasonal travel periods in 1995, the Company
maintained 14.3% and 12.3% of the total passenger market from U.S. gateway
cities into Honolulu and the State of Hawaii, respectively. The Company is the
leading direct carrier between Honolulu and each of Las Vegas and Portland based
on ASMs. The Company is also second in market share between Honolulu and Los
Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle on a combined basis based on ASMs.
72
<PAGE>
Charter carriers that compete against the Company's Transpac operations
include American Transair and Rich International Airways. This competition is
greatest during the summer. Based on currently available information, the
Company expects that American Transair and Rich International Airways will
operate approximately 33 round trip flights per week between Hawaii and the West
Coast (San Francisco and Los Angeles) during the summer of 1996. The Company
believes that the number of charter flights to be flown during summer 1996 is
lower than the number of charter flights flown during the two previous summer
seasons. The availability of charter flights to Hawaii results in reduced demand
for the Company's flights and lowers yields during the high summer season.
Charter carriers' competitive position is enhanced by contractual relationships
with tour operators.
Recent announcements of capacity increases to Hawaii by domestic carriers
may affect pricing levels on the Company's Transpac routes. Charter carriers
have increased capacity from secondary markets in the western portion of the
United States and United has scheduled an additional 9,000 seats per week from
Japan and the U.S. mainland, with the bulk of that capacity dedicated to its San
Francisco and Los Angeles routes. Subsequent announcements by United of direct
service from Los Angeles to Kona and Maui are believed to be in addition to the
9,000 seats mentioned above. The increasing presence of charter carriers and
United's expanded capacity are examples of the competitive pricing and capacity
issues facing the Company in the future. Management is not able to predict the
impact of these competitive pressures on the Company's operations.
The following table sets forth the number of non-stop round trip flights per
week flown by the Company and each of its competitors that offer scheduled
service from the West Coast, including Las Vegas, to Hawaii, including the
neighbor islands, based on the summer schedule effective as of mid-June 1996,
which includes the additional flights recently added by United:

REGULATORY MATTERS
GENERAL. As a certificated air carrier, Hawaiian Airlines is subject to the
regulatory jurisdiction of the DOT and the FAA. The DOT has jurisdiction over
certain aviation matters such as international routes and fares, consumer
protection policies, including baggage liability and denied-boarding
compensation, and unfair competitive practices. Hawaiian Airlines and all other
domestic airlines are subject to regulation by the FAA under the Transportation
Act. The FAA has regulatory jurisdiction over flight operations generally,
including equipment, ground facilities, security systems, maintenance and other
safety matters. To assure compliance with its operational standards, the FAA
requires air carriers to obtain operations, air worthiness and other
certificates which may be suspended or revoked for cause. The FAA also conducts
safety audits and has the power to impose fines
73
<PAGE>
and other sanctions for violations of aviation safety and security regulations.
Hawaiian Airlines, as are other carriers, is subject to inspections by the FAA
in the normal course of its business on a routine ongoing basis. Hawaiian
Airlines operates under a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity issued
by the DOT (authorizing it to provide commercial aircraft service) as well as a
Part 121 Scheduled Carrier Operating Certificate issued by the FAA.
LIMITATION ON FOREIGN OWNERSHIP OF SHARES. The Transportation Act prohibits
non-U.S. citizens from owning more than 25% of the voting interest of a U.S. air
carrier. The Articles of Incorporation provide that the ownership or control of
more than 25% (to be increased or decreased from time to time to that percentage
permissible under the laws of the United States) of issued and outstanding
voting capital stock of the Corporation by persons who are not "citizens of the
United States" is prohibited. As of the Record Date, less than 6% of the Common
Stock was known to be held by non-U.S. citizens.
MAINTENANCE DIRECTIVES AND OTHER REGULATIONS. In the last several years,
the FAA has issued a number of maintenance directives and other regulations
relating to, among other things, collision avoidance systems, airborne windshear
avoidance systems, noise abatement and increased inspection requirements. The
Company expects to continue to incur substantial expenditures for the purpose of
complying with these new regulations. See Note 13 to the financial statements
appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus. Additional laws and regulations have
been proposed from time to time that could significantly increase the cost of
airline operations by, for example, imposing additional requirements or
restrictions on operations. Laws and regulations also have been considered from
time to time that would prohibit or restrict the ownership and/or transfer of
airline routes or takeoff and landing slots. Also the award of international
routes to U.S. carriers (and their retention) is regulated by treaties and
related agreements between the United States and foreign governments which are
amended from time to time. The Company cannot predict what laws and regulations
will be adopted or what changes to international air transportation treaties
will be effected, if any, or how they will affect the Company.
The FAA frequently issues air worthiness directives, often in response to
specific incidents or reports by operators or manufacturers, requiring operators
of specified equipment to perform prescribed inspections, repairs or
modifications within stated time periods or numbers of cycles. Hawaiian Airlines
has developed extensive maintenance programs which consist of a series of phased
checks of each aircraft type. These checks are performed at specified intervals
measured either by time flown or by the number of takeoffs and landings
("cycles") performed. Checks range from daily "walk around" inspections, to more
involved overnight maintenance checks, to exhaustive and time consuming
overhauls. Aircraft engines are subject to phased, or continuous, maintenance
programs designed to detect and remedy potential problems before they occur. The
service lives of certain parts and components of both airframe and engines are
time or cycle controlled. Parts and other components are replaced or overhauled
prior to the expiration of their time or cycle limits. The FAA approves all
airline maintenance programs, including changes to the programs. In addition,
the FAA licenses the mechanics who perform the inspections and repairs, as well
as the inspectors who monitor the work.
Hawaiian Airlines believes that it is in compliance with all requirements
necessary to maintain in good standing its operating authority granted by the
DOT and its air carrier operating certificate issued by the FAA. A modification,
suspension or revocation of any of the Company's DOT or FAA authorizations or
certificates would have a materially adverse effect upon the Company.
Several aspects of airlines' operations are subject to regulation or
oversight by Federal agencies other than the FAA and DOT. The antitrust laws are
enforced by the U.S. Department of Justice. The U.S. Postal Service has
jurisdiction over certain aspects of the transportation of mail and related
services provided by the Company's cargo services. Labor relations in the air
transportation industry are generally regulated under the Railway Labor Act. The
Company and other airlines certificated prior to October 24, 1978 are also
subject to preferential hiring rights granted by the Deregulation Act to certain
airline employees who have been furloughed or terminated (other than for cause).
74
<PAGE>
In 1990, Congress passed legislation phasing out the use of Stage 2 aircraft
in the U.S. by December 31, 1999, with the possibility of certain waivers until
December 31, 2003 when full phase-out is required. Congress provided an
exemption for air carriers operating in Hawaii, or between a place in Hawaii and
a place outside the forty-eight contiguous states, to operate as many Stage 2
aircraft of a certain weight as they operated on November 5, 1990. Any air
carrier that provided flights between places only in Hawaii on November 5, 1990
may include in the number of Stage 2 aircraft under the exemption all Stage 2
aircraft that it owned or leased on November 5, 1990, whether or not the
aircraft were operated by the carrier on that date. However, an air carrier may
provide flights between places only in Hawaii using Stage 2 aircraft only if the
carrier provided the service on November 5, 1990. These exemptions restrict air
carriers other than the Company and Aloha from operating Stage 2 aircraft in
Hawaii. Since Stage 2 aircraft are less expensive to acquire than Stage 3
aircraft, the Company believes that this exemption provides limited protection
against the entry of another carrier, which would have to operate an all Stage 3
fleet. This advantage is partially offset by the fact that Stage 3 aircraft are
generally less expensive to operate and maintain, as well as the fact that in
any event over time, carriers will move toward having an all Stage 3 fleet.
TICKET AND CARGO TAX. Prior to 1996, the airline industry was subject to a
10% tax on each ticket sold (other than Transpac flights), a 6.25% cargo excise
tax and a $6 international departure tax (including Transpac flights). Efforts
are underway to encourage Congress to re-enact legislation authorizing these
taxes. If these taxes are reinstated, the Company would either have to absorb
the taxes, which would adversely affect operating results, or raise ticket
prices and cargo transportation fees in order to offset the taxes. If the
Company were to raise ticket prices and cargo transportation fees, there is no
assurance that the Company would be able to maintain such increases or that
operating results would not be adversely affected by the increases.
CLAIMS AND LITIGATION
Four claims remain asserted against the Company for alleged prepetition
and/or administrative claims on or before the Effective Date of the Plan of
Reorganization. Management believes that the Company has established adequate
reserves for these bankruptcy related claims.
Under the Plan of Reorganization, the Company was to issue 9,400,000 shares
of its common stock to all of the unsecured creditors of the Predecessor Company
with claims allowed under the Plan of Reorganization. As each disputed claim is
resolved, the creditor holding such claim will receive a distribution of stock.
As of May 17, 1996, 8,930,405 of the 9,400,000 shares had been issued and the
Company anticipates issuing approximately 64,000 additional shares under the
Plan of Reorganization by late 1996 in satisfaction of certain disputed
bankruptcy claims outstanding as of December 31, 1995. Any shares withheld in
excess of the amount distributed to the holders of such claims will be held
until all disputed claims have been resolved. The disputed claims consist of an
aggregate of $429,000 for alleged prepetition violations asserted by various
governmental agencies and $5.2 million for damages arising from the return of
aircraft asserted by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, as receiver.
Upon resolution of all disputed claims, there will be a final distribution of
any remaining withheld shares to all general unsecured creditors of the
Predecessor Company on a pro rata basis.
In addition, the Company is a party to several other claims and legal
actions. In the opinion of management, and after consultation with legal
counsel, the Company believes that the ultimate disposition of these matters
will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's operations or financial
condition.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
Two of the Company's directors, Messrs. John W. Adams and Richard F. Conway,
are executive officers of the general partner of AIP and Mr. Adams is the sole
stockholder of the general partner. In the AIP Investment, AIP acquired
18,181,818 shares of Common Stock and four shares of special preferred stock at
a price of $1.10, which was a substantial discount to the then-market price of
the Common Stock. Pursuant to the Bylaws, AIP has the right to nominate six of
the 11 nominees to stand from time to time for election to the Company's Board
of Directors. See "Principal Shareholders -- Control of the Board of Directors"
and "Description of Capital Stock -- Preferred Stock."
As part of the AIP Investment, AIP received registration rights that entitle
AIP, on up to two occasions, to require the Company to use its best efforts to
register all or any portion of AIP's shares under the Securities Act at the
Company's expense. In addition, if the Company registers any other shares of its
common stock for public sale under the Securities Act at any time prior to
January 2006, AIP would have the right to include shares in the registration.
The Company has agreed to extend loans to the 12 holders of Options, all but
two of whom are executive officers of the Company, to enable such holders to
exercise the Optionholder Rights. Assuming that each holder of an Option borrows
money from the Company to pay the aggregate Subscription Price with respect to
all of his or her Optionholder Rights, the principal amount to be loaned to the
named executive officers and all executive officers as a group would be as
follows:
<TABLE>

In addition, the Company will loan the holders the Withholding Amount that
each holder will be required to pay upon the exercise of his or her Optionholder
Rights.
Each loan will be evidenced by a promissory note delivered to the Company by
the Option holder to whom the loan is made, which note will be fully recourse
and secured by the Rights Shares issued to such Option holder. Each note will
bear interest at a variable rate equal to the prime rate in effect from time to
time and will be due and payable upon the earlier of (i) the date that the
Option holder sells the Rights Shares securing the note or (ii) the expiration
date of such holder's Options. All of the Options expire in 2005 except for
those of Mr. Garibaldi, which expire in 2006. The notes may be prepaid in whole
or in part at any time without penalty.

(1) The address of each of the executive officers and directors is 3375 Koapaka
Street, Suite G-350, Honolulu, Hawaii 96819.
(2) Each executive officer and director has sole voting and investment power
with respect to the shares listed after his or her name except for shares
issued to the Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan (the "Savings
Plan"), and the Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. Pilots' 401(k) Plan (the "Pilots'
Plan") or as otherwise indicated below. The shares owned by each person, or
by the group, and the shares included in the total number of shares
outstanding have been adjusted, and the percentage owned (where the
percentage exceeds 1%) have been computed in accordance with Rule
13d-3(d)(1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Shares of
the Common Stock allocated to participants' accounts in the Savings Plan are
voted by the Vanguard Group, Inc. (the "Savings Plan Trustee"), pursuant to
written directions of the participants, on matters presented at meetings of
shareholders; shares with respect to which no participant directions are
received are voted according to the direction of the majority of number of
shares for which the Savings Plan Trustee received written directions; and
unallocated shares are voted by fiduciaries designated under the Savings
Plan. Shares of the Common Stock allocated to participants' accounts in the
Pilots' Plan are voted by Vanguard Group, Inc. (the "Pilots' Plan Trustee"),
pursuant to written directions of the participants, on matters presented at
meetings of shareholders; shares with respect to which no participant
directions are received are voted according to the direction of the majority
of number of shares for which the Pilots' Plan Trustee received written
directions; and unallocated shares are voted by fiduciaries designated under
the Pilots' Plan.
(3) The shares reported as owned by AIP, of which AIP General Partner, Inc. is
its general partner and John W. Adams is AIP General Partner, Inc.'s sole
shareholder, include the shares reported as beneficially owned by AIP
General Partner, Inc. and John W. Adams. According to their Schedule 13D
dated January 31, 1996, AIP, AIP General Partner, Inc. and John W. Adams
exercise sole voting and dispositive power with respect to all such shares.
(4) Consists entirely of Mr. Morella's account in the Pilots' Plan. The number
of shares reported represents the equivalent number of shares held through
the Pilot's Plan. The investment is tracked using a unit value accounting
method, similar to a mutual fund. To determine the equivalent number of
whole shares represented by the fund units, the market value of the
shareholder's balance in the Pilot's Plan was divided by the share price of
the Company's Common Stock.
(5) Includes fully vested and exercisable Options to purchase 300,000 shares of
Common Stock granted on February 2, 1995 under the 1994 Stock Option Plan
and expiring ten years from the date of grant; and 4,342 shares issued to
the Savings Plan.
(6) Consists entirely of fully vested and exercisable Options to purchase
40,000 shares of Common Stock granted on February 2, 1995 under the 1994
Stock Option Plan and expiring ten years from the date of grant.
(7) Excludes Options to purchase 7,500 shares of Common Stock granted on May 1,
1996 under the 1994 Stock Option Plan and expiring on May 1, 2006, which
Options will not vest until May 1, 1997.
(8) Includes fully vested and exercisable Options to purchase 60,000 shares of
Common Stock granted on February 2, 1995 under the 1994 Stock Option Plan
and expiring ten years from the date of grant; and 534 shares issued to the
Savings Plan.

Common Stock granted on February 2, 1995 under the 1994 Stock Option Plan
and expiring ten years from the date of grant; and 1,670 shares issued to
the Savings Plan.

(10) The number of shares reported includes the equivalent number of shares held
by certain directors and officers through the Pilot's Plan. The investment
is tracked using a unit value accounting method, similar to a mutual fund.
To determine the equivalent number of whole shares represented by the fund
units, the market value of the shareholder's balance in the Pilot's Plan was
divided by the share price of the Company's Common Stock.

CONTROL OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Pursuant to the Bylaws, AIP has the right to nominate six of the eleven
nominees to stand from time to time for election to the Board of Directors so
long as it owns 35% of the outstanding common stock of the Company on a fully
diluted basis. AIP's right to nominate directors will be reduced to five so long
as it retains 25% of such common stock, reduced to four so long as it retains
10% of such common stock, and reduced to three so long as it retains 5% of such
common stock. Thereafter, AIP will not have the right to nominate any
individuals to the Board unless it reacquires at least 5% of such common stock
within 365 days. To the extent Board members are not required to be nominated by
AIP because of the reductions in AIP's stock holdings, such Board members are to
be outside directors.
Pursuant to their respective collective bargaining agreement and the Bylaws,
each of AFA, IAM and ALPA has the right to nominate one nominee to stand from
time to time for election to the Board. Of the two other remaining directors,
(i) one is required to be an outside director, defined as one who is not
employed by the Company and is not affiliated with the Company's labor unions,
AIP or American, and (ii) the other is required to be a senior management
official of the Company.
AIP has agreed with each of the labor unions that so long as the right to
have a representative on the Board is in the labor union's collective bargaining
agreement, AIP will vote its shares in favor of such union's nominee for the
Board of Directors.
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 60,000,000 shares of
Common Stock, par value $.01 per share and 2,000,000 shares of preferred stock,
par value, $.01 per share. The following statements are summaries of certain
provisions applicable to the Company's capital stock.
COMMON STOCK
As of May 17, 1996, there were 26,285,000 shares of Common Stock outstanding
held by 954 record holders. The holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote
per share on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders. Holders of Common
Stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends as may be declared by the
Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor. In the event of
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, holders of Common Stock
are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of
liabilities, and after payment in full of any preferential amount to which
holders of preferred stock may be entitled. Holders of Common Stock have no
preemptive rights unless such rights are specifically granted by the Board of
Directors, and no such rights currently exist. Holders of Common Stock have no
redemption, sinking fund or conversion rights. All of the currently outstanding
shares of Common Stock are, and the Rights Shares and Committed Shares, upon
their issuance in accordance with the terms of the Rights and the Stock Purchase
Agreements, respectively, will be, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
PREFERRED STOCK
The Board of Directors has authority to issue 2,000,000 shares of preferred
stock in one or more series and to fix the voting powers, designations,
preferences and participating, optional, relative or other special rights, and
qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, without any further vote or
action by the Company's shareholders. The issuance of preferred stock in certain
circumstances may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change
of control of the Company without
82
<PAGE>
further action by the shareholders, may discourage bids for the Common Stock at
a premium over the market price of the Common Stock and may adversely affect the
market price of, and the voting and other rights of the holders of, Common
Stock.
In connection with and upon consummation of the AIP Investment, on January
31, 1996, the Company issued shares of four new series of preferred stock,
denominated Series B Special Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share, Series C
Special Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share, Series D Special Preferred
Stock, par value $.01 per share, and Series E Special Preferred Stock, par value
$.01 per share (collectively, the four series of preferred stock are hereinafter
referred to as "Special Preferred Stock"). AIP holds four shares of Series B
Special Preferred Stock, and each of AFA, IAM and ALPA holds one share of Series
C Special Preferred Stock, Series D Special Preferred Stock and Series E Special
Preferred Stock, respectively, which shares comprise all of the issued and
outstanding shares of each series of Special Preferred Stock.
Pursuant to the Bylaws, the holders of the Special Preferred Stock have the
right to nominate persons to stand from time to time for election to the Board
of Directors. See "Principal Shareholders -- Control of the Board of Directors."
In addition, holders of each series of Special Preferred Stock have the
following rights, preferences and privileges:
(i) a right to receive, out of the assets of the Company, $.01 per share
before any payment shall be made or any assets distributed to the holders of
the Common Stock in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of
the Company;
(ii) the right to one vote per share together with the Common Stock,
voting as a single class, with respect to any matters submitted to the
holders of Common Stock, and as required by law;
(iii) the right to fill a vacancy on the Board of Directors caused by the
removal, resignation or death of a director whom the holders of such series
are entitled to nominate pursuant to the Bylaws, if such vacancy is not
filled by the Board of Directors within 30 days; and
(iv) a dividend per share, when and as declared and paid by the Board of
Directors on the Common Stock, equal to twice the dividend per share paid on
the Common Stock.
The rights and preferences of the Special Preferred Stock cease to exist
once the outstanding shares are converted into Common Stock, on a share for
share basis, which occurs automatically upon transfer of such shares to any
person who is not an affiliate of the initial holder of the Special Preferred
Stock; and in the case of the Series B Special Preferred Stock, if such holder
is the holder of record of less than five percent of the outstanding common
equity interest of the Company for 365 consecutive days; and in the case of each
of the Series C Special Preferred Stock, Series D Special Preferred Stock and
Series E Special Preferred Stock, if the collective bargaining agreement by and
between the holders of such share and the Company is amended through collective
bargaining so that such agreement no longer entitles such holders to nominate a
representative to the Board of Directors. The holders of shares of the Special
Preferred Stock are not entitled to preemptive, subscription redemption or
sinking fund rights.
In connection with the Company's shareholders' rights plan described below,
the Board of Directors has authorized a series of preferred stock, denominated
Series A Junior Participating Cumulative Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per
share (the "Series A Preferred Stock"). The 20,000 authorized shares of Series A
Preferred Stock will be issuable in increments of 1/1000th of a share upon the
exercise of purchase rights under the shareholders' rights plan. See
"Shareholders' Rights Plan" below.
SHAREHOLDERS' RIGHTS PLAN
In December 1994, the Board of Directors adopted a shareholders' rights plan
(the "Rights Plan"). The following description of the Rights Plan is qualified
in its entirety by reference to the
83
<PAGE>
Rights Agreement setting forth the terms of the Rights Plan, which Rights
Agreement will be filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement of which
this Prospectus is a part. See "Available Information."
The Rights Plan provides that one preferred stock purchase right (a
"Purchase Right") is attached to each share of Common Stock currently
outstanding and a Purchase Right will be issued with each share of Common Stock
issued prior to the Purchase Rights Distribution Date (as defined below). Prior
to the Purchase Rights Distribution Date, the Purchase Rights are not
exercisable, are attached to and trade in tandem with the Common Stock on the
American Stock Exchange and the Pacific Stock Exchange and are evidenced by the
same stock certificates that evidence the related shares of Common Stock. On the
Purchase Rights Distribution Date, the Purchase Rights will detach from the
Common Stock, will trade separately and will be evidenced by separate Purchase
Rights certificates.
The "Purchase Rights Distribution Date" will be the earliest of (i) the
tenth business day following a public announcement that a person has become the
beneficial owner of 10% or more of the outstanding Common Stock (such a person
being referred to as a "10% Shareholder" and the date of such announcement being
referred to as the "10% Ownership Date"), (ii) the tenth business day (or such
later day as may be designated by the Board of Directors) following the date of
the commencement of, or the announcement of an intention to make, a tender offer
or exchange offer, the consummation of which would cause any person to become a
10% Shareholder (the date of such tenth business day (or later day) being the
"Tender/Exchange Offer Date") or (iii) the first date, on or after the 10%
Ownership Date, upon which the Company is acquired in a merger or other business
combination in which the Company is not the surviving corporation or in which
the outstanding Common Stock is changed into or exchanged for stock or assets of
another person, or upon which 50% or more of the Company's consolidated assets
or earning power are sold (other than in transactions in the ordinary course of
business) (the date of such merger, combination, sale or transfer being the
"Flip-Over Date").
Once the Purchase Rights Distribution Date has occurred, the Purchase Rights
will be exercisable. Between the Purchase Rights Distribution Date and the
earlier to occur of the Flip-In Date (as defined below) or the Flip-Over Date,
each Purchase Right will be exercisable to purchase from the Company 1/1000th of
a share of Series A Preferred Stock at an exercise price of $8.00.
It is intended that each 1/1000th of a share of the Series A Preferred Stock
will have a theoretical value equal to one share of the Common Stock. Each
1/1000th of a share of the Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to a
preferential quarterly dividend, subject to the rights of the shares of any
other series of preferred stock equal to the larger of (i) an amount equal to
the dividend, if any, declared for a share of the Common Stock or (ii) $.001. In
the event of liquidation, the holder of each 1/1000th of a share of the Series A
Preferred Stock will be entitled to a preferential liquidation payment equal to
the larger of (i) an amount equal to the amount to be distributed with respect
to each share of Common Stock or (ii) $.001 plus accrued and unpaid dividends
and distributions on the Series A Preferred Stock. Each 1/1000th of a share of
Series A Preferred Stock will have one vote and will vote together with the
shares of Common Stock. In the event of any merger, consolidation or other
transaction in which shares of Common Stock are exchanged, each 1/1000th of a
share of the Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive an amount
equal to that received per share of Common Stock. These Purchase Rights are
protected by customary antidilution provisions. The Series A Preferred Stock
will be junior to any other series of Preferred Stock that may be authorized and
issued by the Company, unless the terms of any such other series provide
otherwise. The Series A Preferred Stock is issuable only upon the exercise of
Purchase Rights and will not be redeemable. Once the shares of Series A
Preferred Stock are issued, the Articles of Incorporation may not be amended in
a manner that would materially alter or change the powers, preferences or
special rights of the Series A Preferred Stock so as to affect them adversely
without the affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds or more of the
outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, voting separately as a class. At
any time that dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock in an aggregate amount
equal to dividends payable for
84
<PAGE>
six quarters are in arrears, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will
have the right to a separate class vote to elect one director to the Board of
Directors ((or, in the event such other series of preferred stock is entitled to
a greater number of directors, such number of directors, which shall be
cumulative and not in addition to the one director provided herein) (in addition
to the then authorized number of directors)) at the next annual meeting of
shareholders. Upon payment of all dividend arrearages, the terms of the
director(s) elected by the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will expire.
Following the close of business on the tenth business day following the 10%
Ownership Date (such day being the "Flip-In Date"), each Purchase Right (other
than Purchase Rights held by the 10% Shareholder, which shall be void) will be
exercisable to purchase, at the then current exercise price, shares of Common
Stock (or, in certain circumstances, cash, assets or other securities of the
Company) having a market value equal to two times the exercise price of the
Purchase Right.
If, on or after the 10% Ownership Date, (i) the Company is acquired in a
merger or other business combination transaction in which the Company is not the
surviving corporation or the Common Stock is changed or exchanged for stock or
assets of another person or (ii) 50 percent or more of the Company's assets or
earning power is sold, each Purchase Right (other than Purchase Rights held by
the 10% Shareholder, which shall be void) will be exercisable to purchase, at
the then current exercise price, shares of common stock of the surviving
corporation or the acquirer having a market value equal to two times the
exercise price of the Purchase Right.
At any time prior to the earliest of the Tender/Exchange Offer Date, the
Flip-In Date or the Flip-Over Date, the Board of Directors serving prior to the
date the event triggering the Purchase Right may, at its option, call the
Purchase Rights for redemption in whole, but not in part, at a price of $.01 per
Purchase Right. Immediately upon the calling of the Purchase Rights for
redemption, the right to exercise Purchase Rights will terminate and the only
right of the holders of Purchase Rights thereafter will be to receive the
redemption price.
At any time after the 10% Ownership Date and prior to the first date
thereafter upon which a 10% Shareholder becomes the beneficial owner of 50% or
more of the outstanding Common Stock, the Board of Directors may, at its option,
direct the Company to exchange all but not less than all, of the then
outstanding Purchase Rights for Common Stock at an exchange ratio per Purchase
Right equal to a number of shares of Common Stock that, as of the date of the
Board of Directors' action, has a current market value equal to the difference
between the exercise price of a Purchase Right and the current market price of
the shares that would otherwise be issuable upon exercise of a Purchase Right on
such date. Immediately upon such action by the Directors, the right to exercise
Purchase Rights will terminate and the only right of the holders of Purchase
Rights thereafter will be to receive the number of shares of Common Stock to be
issued in such exchange.
The Board of Directors may, from time to time, without the approval of any
holder of Purchase Rights, supplement or amend any provision of the Rights Plan,
whether or not such supplement or amendment is adverse to any holder of Purchase
Rights; provided, however, that from and after the earliest of the
Tender/Exchange Offer Date, the 10% Ownership Date, the Flip-In Date the
Flip-Over Date or the date of the redemption of the Purchase Rights, the Rights
Plan may not be supplemented or amended in any manner that would materially and
adversely affect any holder of outstanding Purchase Rights other than a 10%
Shareholder; provided further, that from and after the 10% Ownership Date, the
Rights Plan may not be supplemented or amended in any manner without the
approval of a majority of the directors who were directors prior to such date.
Until a Purchase Right is exercised, the holder thereof, as such, will have
no rights as a shareholder of the Company, including without limitation, the
right to vote or to receive dividends. While the distribution of the Purchase
Rights will not be taxable to shareholders or to the Company, shareholders may,
depending upon the circumstances, recognize taxable income in the event that the
Purchase Rights become exercisable for shares of Common Stock (or other
consideration) or for common stock of the surviving corporation or the acquirer.
85
<PAGE>
The Purchase Rights will expire in December 2004 (unless they have been
earlier redeemed or exchanged) unless the Purchase Rights Distribution Date
occurs prior to that time, in which case the Purchase Rights will expire on the
tenth anniversary of the Purchase Rights Distribution Date.
The Purchase Rights will have certain anti-takeover effects as they will
cause substantial dilution to a person or group that acquires a substantial
interest in the Company without the prior approval of the Board of Directors.
The effect of the Purchase Rights may be to inhibit a change in control of the
Company (including through a third party tender offer at a price that reflects a
premium to then prevailing trading prices) that may be beneficial to the
Company's shareholders.
The consummation of the AIP Investment would have rendered AIP a 10%
Shareholder. However, the Board of Directors, pursuant to authority granted to
it under the Rights Plan, made a determination that AIP would not be a 10%
Shareholder and the Rights Plan was amended to so provide.
ANTI-TAKEOVER LAW AND CHARTER PROVISIONS
In addition to the Rights Plan, the Company is subject to Section 415-73 of
the Hawaii Business Corporation Act, which restricts mergers and consolidations.
Subject to certain exceptions, unless the Board of Directors and the holders of
at least 75% of all the issued and outstanding voting stock of the Company
approve a merger or consolidation, Section 415-73 prohibits such a transaction.
The Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws include a number of provisions that
may have the effect of discouraging persons from pursuing non-negotiated
takeover attempts. These provisions include (i) a restriction on action by
written consent by the shareholders, unless such consent is unanimous, (ii) a
prohibition on cumulative voting, (iii) certain qualifications for directors and
(iv) restrictions on the filling of vacancies of directors. See "Principal
Shareholders -- Control of the Board of Directors."
THE FINANCIAL ADVISOR
The Company has engaged Jefferies to act as its financial advisor in
connection with its assessment of strategic alternatives and the Rights
Offering. The Financial Advisor was engaged because of its general experience
and expertise in financial matters. The Financial Advisor, as part of its
investment banking business, is continually engaged in the valuation of
securities in connection with acquisitions, negotiated underwritings, secondary
distributions of listed and unlisted securities, private placements and
valuations for various other purposes. As specialists in securities, it has
experience in, and knowledge of, the valuation of airline enterprises. In the
ordinary course of its business as broker-dealer, it may, from time to time,
purchase securities from, and sell securities to, the Company and, as a market
maker in securities, it may from time to time have a long or short position in,
and buy or sell, debt or equity securities of the Company for its own account
and for the accounts of its customers.
In its capacity as financial advisor, the Financial Advisor provided advice
to the Board of Directors of the Company regarding the determination of the
Subscription Price and the financial impact of the Rights Offering on the
Company from a financial point of view and discussed with management and the
Board of Directors of the Company the possible effects of the Rights Offering.
See "Purpose of the Rights Offering and Use of Proceeds." The Financial Advisor
is assisting the Company in identifying potential Investors, but has not been
retained to, and will not, solicit Holders of Rights to purchase Common Stock in
connection with the Rights Offering. See "The Investor Offering."
Under applicable law, Jefferies may bid for and purchase Rights for certain
purposes. Such purchases will be subject to certain price and volume limitations
when Jefferies owns Rights without an offsetting short position in the Common
Stock. Such limitations provide, among other things, that subject to certain
exceptions, not more than one bid to purchase Rights may be maintained in any
one market at the same price at the same time and that, with certain limited
exceptions, the initial bid for or purchase of Rights may not be made at a price
higher than the highest current independent bid price or the last independent
sales price on the AMEX or the PSE. Any such price may not be
86
<PAGE>
increased, subject to certain exceptions, unless Jefferies has not purchased any
Rights for a full business day or the independent bid price for such Rights has
exceeded such price for a full business day.
From the date of this Prospectus, Jefferies may offer and sell shares of
Common Stock at prices it sets from time to time, which prices may be higher or
lower than the Subscription Price. Prior to the Expiration Date, each of these
prices when set will not exceed the higher of the last sale price or current
asked price of the Common Stock on the AMEX or the PSE plus, in each case, an
amount equal to an exchange commission, and any offering price set on any
calendar day will not be increased more than once during that day. Any offering
by Jefferies may include shares of Common Stock acquired or to be acquired
through the exercise of the Rights. As a result of those offerings, Jefferies
may realize profits or losses independent of its financial advisory and capital
raising fees it receives.
Jefferies will receive (i) a capital raising fee equal to 5.5% of the
aggregate gross proceeds to the Company from (x) the Investor Offering as
compensation in connection with its efforts to arrange commitments of the
Investors to purchase shares of Common Stock and (y) any other offering of
Common Stock in which Jefferies provides financial advisory services to the
Company (I.E., a Subsequent Offering) and which is necessary in order that gross
proceeds to the Company from the Rights Offering, the Investor Offering and any
Subsequent Offering equal or exceed $25,000,000, and (ii) a fee of 3.0% of the
total gross proceeds to the Company from the exercise by the Financial Advisor
of Shareholder Rights purchased by it. In the event that the total gross
proceeds to the Company from the Rights Offering, the Investor Offering and any
Subsequent Offering equal or exceed $25,000,000, Jefferies will also receive (1)
a financial advisory fee equal to 1.5% of the aggregate gross proceeds to the
Company from the Rights Offering, the Investor Offering and any Subsequent
Offering and (2) reimbursement by the Company for Jefferies' out-of-pocket
expenses, other than its reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, which the
Company has agreed to reimburse regardless of the amount of proceeds from the
various offerings. The Financial Advisor will pay to the Company 50% of any net
proceeds resulting to the Financial Advisor from the sale of Rights Shares
received by Jefferies upon the exercise of Shareholder Rights purchased by it.
In addition, the Company has agreed to indemnify Jefferies against certain
liabilities.
The Financial Advisor has provided investment banking services to the
Company in the past, including in connection with the AIP Investment, and
received commissions in connection therewith and may continue to perform these
and other services and receive fees therefor in the future. In connection with
the AIP Investment, the Company paid Jefferies fees of (i) $150,000 for
rendering its December 7, 1995 fairness opinion regarding the AIP Investment and
(ii) $1.2 million upon consummation of the AIP Investment. The Company also
reimbursed Jefferies for its fees and expenses in connection with the AIP
Investment.
LEGAL MATTERS
The tax matters discussed under "Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences"
are being passed upon for the Company by Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP, Los
Angeles, California. The validity of the authorization and issuance of the

EXPERTS
The financial statements of Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. as of December 31, 1995
and 1994, and for the year ended December 31, 1995, the period September 12,
1994 through December 31, 1994, the period January 1, 1994 through September 11,
1994, and the year ended December 31, 1993, have been included herein and in the
registration statement in reliance upon the report of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP,
independent certified public accountants, dated March 15, 1996, appearing
elsewhere herein, and upon the authority of said firm as experts in accounting
and auditing.
87
<PAGE>
The report of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP dated March 15, 1996, contains an
explanatory paragraph that states that the financial statements of the
Reorganized Company reflect the impact of adjustments to reflect the fair value
of assets and liabilities under fresh start accounting and, as a result, the
financial statements of the Reorganized Company are presented on a basis
different than those of the Predecessor Company.
In addition, the report of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP dated March 15, 1996,
contains an explanatory paragraph that states that the Company's recurring
losses from operations, deficit working capital and limited sources of
additional liquidity raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a
going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that
might result from the outcome of that uncertainty.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
The Board of Directors
Hawaiian Airlines, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Hawaiian Airlines, Inc.
as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related statements of operations,
shareholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year ended December 31,
1995, the period September 12, 1994 through December 31, 1994, the period
January 1, 1994 through September 11, 1994, and the year ended December 31,
1993. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. as
of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the year ended December 31, 1995, the period September 12, 1994
through December 31, 1994, the period January 1, 1994 through September 11,
1994, and the year ended December 31, 1993 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
As discussed in notes 1 and 2 to the financial statements, on September 12,
1994, Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. emerged from bankruptcy. The financial statements
of the Reorganized Company reflect the impact of adjustments to reflect the fair
value of assets and liabilities under fresh start reporting. As a result, the
financial statements of the Reorganized Company are presented on a different
basis than those of the Predecessor Company and, therefore, are not comparable
in all respects.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that
Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. will continue as a going concern. As discussed in note
16 to the financial statements, the Company's recurring losses from operations,
deficit working capital and its limited sources of additional liquidity raise
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's
plans in regard to these matters are also described in note 16. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of
this uncertainty.

HAWAIIAN AIRLINES, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. was incorporated in January 1929 under the laws of
the Territory of Hawaii and maintains its principal offices in Honolulu, Hawaii.
Based on operating revenues, Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. is the largest airline
headquartered in Hawaii and is engaged primarily in the scheduled transportation
of passengers, cargo and mail over a route system which services the six major
islands of the State of Hawaii, several cities primarily in the U.S. West Coast
region and certain destinations in the South Pacific.
The Company's passenger airline business is its chief source of revenue.
Scheduled passenger service consists of, on average, approximately 150 flights
per day among the six major islands of the State of Hawaii ("Interisland"),
daily service to four U.S. West Coast cities and Las Vegas ("Transpac"), and two
flights per week to Pago Pago, American Samoa and one flight per week to
Papeete, Tahiti in the South Pacific ("Southpac"). The Company also provides
charter service to Las Vegas.
On September 21, 1993, Hawaiian Airlines together with HAL, INC., Hawaiian
Airlines' parent company, and West Maui Airport, Inc., another wholly owned
subsidiary of HAL, INC. (collectively the "Predecessor"), commenced
reorganization cases by filing voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11,
Title 11 of the United States Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District
of Hawaii. Concurrently therewith, the Debtors filed a Consolidated Plan of
Reorganization dated September 21, 1993 (as amended through the most recent
amendment dated April 20, 1995, the "Reorganization Plan" or the "Plan"). The
Company emerged from the Chapter 11 process less than a year later with the
Reorganization Plan becoming effective on September 12, 1994 (the "Effective
Date"). The Chapter 11 process resulted in the Company recognizing an
extraordinary gain of $190.1 million, representing the relief of $204.7 million
of liabilities net of offsets and certain liabilities that survived the
reorganization. Further, pursuant to the Reorganization Plan, on the Effective
Date, first West Maui Airport, Inc. and then HAL, INC. were merged with and into
Hawaiian Airlines with Hawaiian Airlines being the sole surviving corporation.
Upon the effectiveness of the mergers, all of the outstanding equity securities
of the Company, HAL, INC., and West Maui Airport, Inc. were canceled.
Under the Plan, the Company will issue and distribute approximately
9,400,000 shares of its common stock to all of the unsecured creditors with
claims allowed under the Plan. At December 31, 1995, the Company's common stock
consisted of two classes, one with full voting rights, Class A Common Stock, and
the other with limited voting rights, Class B Common Stock. On June 19, 1995,
the Company commenced distribution of its Class A and Class B Common Stock and
as of December 31, 1995, 6,845,105 shares of Class A Common Stock and 1,894,955
shares of Class B Common Stock were issued and outstanding. The Company
anticipates issuing 636,247 shares of Class A Common Stock under the Plan by
late 1996 in satisfaction of disputed claims outstanding as of December 31,
1995. Any shares withheld in excess of the amount distributed to the holders of
such claims will be held until all disputed claims have been resolved. The
disputed claims consist of an aggregate $534,000 for alleged prepetition
violations and various other claims asserted by various governmental agencies
and $5.2 million for damages arising from the return of aircraft asserted by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, as receiver. Upon resolution of all
disputed claims, there will be a final distribution of any remaining withheld
shares to all general unsecured creditors on a pro rata basis.
Following the consummation of the AIP Investment, as defined below, each
share of the Class B Common Stock issued pursuant to the Reorganization Plan was
converted into one share of Class A Common Stock.
Pursuant to the Reorganization Plan, the Company (1) granted warrants to
purchase an additional 989,011 shares of its Class A Common Stock (the "Existing
Warrants"), none of which have

been exercised, and (2) reserved 600,000 shares of the Class A Common Stock for
issuance to certain employees under the Company's 1994 Stock Option Plan, as
amended. The Class A Common Stock began trading on the American Stock Exchange
(the "AMEX") and the Pacific Stock Exchange on June 21, 1995.
In February 1995, the Company's Board of Directors began to explore options
to supplement the Company's capital base, reduce its reliance on short-term bank
debt and promotional coupon sales and increase the Company's financial
flexibility. The Company, with the assistance of its outside financial advisor,
identified and met with potential investors, including Airline Investors
Partnership, L.P. ("AIP"), regarding a possible equity investment in the
Company. AIP ultimately agreed to make a $20.0 million cash investment in the
Company through the purchase of 18,181,818 shares of Class A Common Stock, par
value $.01 per share, and four shares of the Company's Series B Special
Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "AIP Investment"). On January 31,
1996, the AIP Investment and a series of related transactions, which were
dependent and effective upon one another, were consummated. Among other things,
the related transactions included:
- Certain agreements and arrangements with American Airlines, Inc.
("American"), including amendment to the long-term aircraft lease agreement
pursuant to which American leases DC-10-10 aircraft to the Company, (the
"Aircraft Lease Agreement"), which provide for, among other things, the
making of $10.0 million of previously deferred rent and maintenance
payments and interest thereon with a secured promissory note, rent
reduction and the release of a $2.0 million security deposit in the form of
a letter of credit. In addition, the Company issued to AMR Corporation,
American's parent company ("AMR"), warrants (the "AMR Warrants") to acquire
up to 1,897,946 shares of Class A Common Stock at $1.10 per share. One-half
of the AMR Warrants are immediately exercisable but the balance will only
be exercisable if American and the Company enter into a code sharing
agreement by January 1, 1997 regarding the placement of the two letter
flight designator code for American's flights on the Company's Interisland
flights. The AMR Warrants expire on September 11, 2001; and
- Agreements with each of the Company's labor unions regarding certain
modifications to their respective collective bargaining unit agreements.
These modifications include certain wage concessions, which will generate
significant annual cost savings to the Company.
See Note 16.
2. FRESH START REPORTING
The fresh start reporting common equity value of approximately $40.0 million
was determined by the Reorganized Company's management and was calculated by
employing a methodology based on a multiple of earnings before interest and
taxes. Analyses of publicly available information of other companies believed to
be comparable to the Reorganized Company were used in determining a multiple
which was then applied to financial projections of the Reorganized Company.
Management's estimate of common equity value considered a number of factors
including relevant industry and economic conditions, expected future
performance, and the amount of available cash and current market conditions.
Under fresh start reporting, the reorganization value of the entity was
allocated to the Reorganized Company's assets and liabilities on a basis
substantially consistent with the purchase method of accounting. The portion of
reorganization value not attributable to specific tangible or identifiable
intangible assets of the Reorganized Company is reflected as "Reorganization
value in excess of amounts allocable to identifiable assets" in the accompanying
balance sheets.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Company's financial statements, up to and including the Effective Date,
included herein have been prepared in accordance with SOP 90-7. For accounting
purposes, the Effective Date of the Plan and inception date for the Reorganized
Company is deemed to be September 12, 1994. Under fresh start reporting, the
reorganization value of the entity has been allocated to the Reorganized
Company's assets and liabilities on a basis substantially consistent with the
purchase method of accounting. The portion of reorganization value not
attributable to specific tangible or identifiable intangible assets of the
Company is reflected as "Reorganization value in excess of amounts allocable to
identifiable assets" in the accompanying balance sheets.
Because of the application of fresh start reporting, the financial
statements for periods after reorganization are not comparable to the financial
statements for periods prior to the reorganization.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
The Company considers all investments purchased with an original maturity of
three months or less to be cash equivalents. Short-term cash investments at
December 31, 1994 and 1995 were valued at cost and amounted to $2.6 and $2.5
million, respectively.
INVENTORIES
Inventories consisting of flight equipment, expendable parts and supplies
are stated at average cost, less an allowance for obsolescence.
ASSETS HELD FOR SALE
Assets held for sale consisting of expendable inventory parts and rotable
flight equipment are stated at the lower of average cost or net realizable
value. As of December 31, 1994 and 1995, the Company had approximately $13.4
million and $9.7 million, respectively, of expendable inventory parts and
rotable flight equipment held for sale internally or on a consignment basis with
a third party.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Owned property and equipment are stated at cost. Costs of major improvements
are capitalized. Depreciation and amortization are provided on a straight-line
basis over the following estimated useful lives:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Flight equipment........................ 12-15 years, 15% residual value
Ground equipment........................ 5-15 years
Airport terminal facility............... 30 years
Buildings............................... 15-20 years
Shorter of lease term or useful
Leasehold improvements.................. life
</TABLE>
Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred, except that
(1) costs of overhauling engines are charged to operations in the year the
engines are removed for overhaul and (2) scheduled heavy airframe overhauls on
DC-9-50 aircraft are recorded under the deferral method whereby the cost of
overhaul is capitalized and amortized over the shorter of the period benefited
or the lease term. Additionally, provision is made for the estimated cost of
scheduled heavy airframe overhauls required to be performed on leased DC-9-50
aircraft prior to their return to lessors. Maintenance and repairs on DC-10-10
aircraft are charged to operations on a flight hour basis.
REORGANIZATION VALUE IN EXCESS OF AMOUNTS ALLOCABLE TO IDENTIFIABLE ASSETS
Reorganization value in excess of amounts allocable to identifiable assets
is amortized on a straight-line basis over 20 years. Accumulated amortization at
December 31, 1994 and 1995 totaled
F-12
<PAGE>
HAWAIIAN AIRLINES, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
approximately $1.1 and $4.7 million, respectively. The Company will continue to
assess and evaluate whether the remaining useful life of the asset requires
revision or, through the use of estimated future undiscounted cash flows over
the remaining life of the asset, whether the remaining balance of the asset may
not be recoverable. The assessment of the recoverability of the unamortized
amount will be impacted if estimated future operating cash flows are not
achieved.
OTHER ASSETS
Material preoperating costs associated with the introduction of new flight
equipment are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease
period or five years.
ACCRUED VACATION LIABILITY
Accrued vacation in excess of the amount expected to be taken by employees
during the following year are classified as a noncurrent liability.
FREQUENT FLYER AWARDS
A liability for frequent flyer awards is recognized on the incremental cost
basis in the period during which passengers have accumulated sufficient mileage
for award redemption. Incremental costs primarily include fuel and catering.
PASSENGER REVENUES
Passenger fares are recorded as operating revenues when the transportation
is provided. The value of unused passenger tickets is included as Air traffic
liability.
INCOME TAXES
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating
loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in years in
which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The
effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is
recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
Income (loss) per share is based on the weighted average number of common
stock shares and, if dilutive, common stock equivalents outstanding during each
year.
USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those
estimates.
Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change
relate to the determination of Air traffic liability and the amounts reported
for Accumulated pension and other postretirement benefit obligations. Management
believes that such estimates have been appropriately established in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (the "SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting
for the Impairment of Long-
F-13
<PAGE>
HAWAIIAN AIRLINES, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." This Statement is
effective for years beginning after December 15, 1995 and applies to long-lived
assets and certain identifiable intangible assets whether held and used or to be
disposed of, and goodwill.
SFAS No. 121 requires that a review be made of long-lived assets and certain
identifiable intangible assets to be held and used for impairment whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset
may not be recoverable. If the future cash flows expected to result from use of
the asset (undiscounted and without interest charges) are less than the carrying
amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized. Such impairment loss is
measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the
fair value of the asset. In instances where goodwill is identified with assets
that are subject to an impairment loss, such goodwill should be allocated to the
assets tested for recoverability on a pro rata basis using the relative fair
values of the assets acquired in the transaction generating the goodwill.
SFAS No. 121 also requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable
intangible assets to be disposed of be reported at the lower of the asset
carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell.
The Company plans to adopt SFAS No. 121 in 1996. Restatement of previously
issued financial statements is not permitted. The Company does not believe that
adoption of SFAS No. 121 will have a material impact on its financial condition
or results of operations.
In October 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation." SFAS No. 123 establishes a new, fair value based method of
accounting for stock-based compensation, but does not require an entity to adopt
the new method for purposes of preparing its basic financial statements. For
entities not adopting the new method, SFAS No. 123 requires footnote disclosure
of pro forma net income and earnings per share information as if the fair value
based method had been adopted. The disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 are
effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
1995. The Company will comply with the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123
in its 1996 financial statements.
4. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The carrying amounts of Cash and cash equivalents, Accounts receivable,
Lease security and other deposits, Accounts payable, Other accrued liabilities,
Accrued vacation liability and Accrued salaries and wages approximate fair value
due to the short maturity of those instruments.
The estimated fair values of Long-term debt amounted to $20.5 million and
$11.4 million at December 31, 1994 and 1995, respectively, and Capital lease
obligations amounted to $14.9 million and $12.2 million at December 31, 1994 and
1995, respectively. These fair values were estimated by discounting the future
cash flow requirements of each instrument at rates currently offered at the
respective year-end dates to the Company for similar debt and lease instruments
of comparable maturities.
5. FLIGHT EQUIPMENT
All of the Company's aircraft are leased except for two DC-9-50s. At
December 31, 1994 and 1995, the composition of the Company's aircraft fleet is
as follows:

AIRCRAFT LEASES
Six DC-10-10 aircraft are leased under operating leases which expire in
2001. Two DC-10-10 aircraft are leased under short term operating leases which
expire in 1996. Seven and four DC-9-50 aircraft and related flight equipment are
leased under operating and capital leases, respectively, for various periods
ranging through the year 2004.
Most of the aircraft under operating leases include renewal options and fair
market value purchase options at the end of the lease period.
OTHER LEASES
The Company leases office space for its headquarters, airport facilities,
ticket offices and certain ground equipment in varying terms to 2008.
GENERAL
Rent expense for aircraft, office space, real property and other equipment
during 1993, 1994 and 1995 was $36.6 million, $33.6 million and $25.5 million,
respectively, net of sublease rental income from operating leases of $48,000,
$368,000 and $75,000, respectively.

In addition to scheduled future minimum lease payments, the Company is
required to pay for, under agreement with American, monthly DC-10-10 maintenance
charges. These charges are based on estimated flight hours for the month and are
expensed as incurred. For the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1995, the
Company incurred $8.9 million and $37.6 million, respectively, in maintenance
charges under such agreement.
Commencing October 1994 and throughout 1995, the Company was delinquent in
making certain payments due American under the Aircraft Lease Agreement. As of
December 31, 1995, the Company was delinquent on scheduled payments amounting to
approximately $9.7 million under this lease arrangement. Although American
notified the Company that the failure to make these certain rent and prepaid
maintenance payments constituted an event of default under the lease agreement,
it did not declare the lease agreement in default or exercise any remedies
available to it. Certain additional payments were made by the Company to
American and amendments to the Aircraft Lease Agreement providing for deferrals
of payment of any remaining delinquent amounts owed by the Company over

scheduled dates were effected throughout 1995. Effective January 31, 1996, the
Company and American agreed to terms for the satisfaction of these delinquent
amounts. In addition, effective January 31, 1996, the Company and American
agreed to a reduction in basic rents due on DC-10-10 operating leases. The above
schedule of future minimum lease commitments does not reflect such reduction.
See Notes 12 and 16.
The net book value of property held under capital leases as of December 31,
1994 and 1995 totaled $17.3 million and $15.5 million, respectively.

8. REORGANIZATION AND NONRECURRING OPERATING ITEMS
During 1993, the Predecessor returned or terminated the respective leases
under five of its DC-9-50 aircraft. As a result, the Company provided for $14.0
million in anticipated aircraft rental and return costs. In accordance with SOP
90-7, the Predecessor classified reorganization and other costs associated with
the bankruptcy proceeding as nonoperating reorganization expenses. The balance
for the period from September 22, 1993 through December 31, 1993 includes the

(TWU) and made certain changes to the compensation and benefits of salaried
employees. These new agreements contemplated that employees would have claims
relating to ratified concessions which would be satisfied through the issuance
of the new Common Stock of the Reorganized Company. A charge of $7.6 million in
1994 was included as a reorganization item in satisfaction of these claims.
Operating expenses in 1995 were reduced by the reversal of $1.8 million in
preconfirmation contingency accruals initially provided for on the Effective
Date.
9. INCOME TAXES
As a result of net operating losses (NOLs) in the current year and NOLs
carried forward from prior years, the Company and the Predecessor were not
required to provide for federal and state income taxes for 1993, 1994 and 1995.
The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant
portions of the Company's deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities at
December 31, 1994 and 1995 are presented below, in thousands:

</TABLE>
The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of January 1, 1994 and
1995 was $66.4 million and $47.1 million, respectively. The net change in the
total valuation allowance for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1995 was a
decrease of $19.3 million and a decrease of $12.9 million, respectively. In
assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether
it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets
is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in
which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the
scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income
and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.
The Chapter 11 reorganization of the Company resulted in an ownership change
of the Company under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Code"), which resulted in a
F-19
<PAGE>

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
9. INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)
limitation on the use of its NOL carryforwards. In order to preserve a portion
of the Company's NOLs in the event of an ownership change within two years of
its bankruptcy reorganization, the Company made a special election in its 1994
federal income tax return to have its NOLs be subject to Section 382 of the Code
following its bankruptcy reorganization (the Section 382(l)(6) election). The
purpose of the Section 382(l)(6) election was to preserve the Company's ability
to utilize a portion of its NOLs even if it underwent an ownership change within
two years from the ownership change resulting from its bankruptcy
reorganization. Absent that election, if the Company underwent an ownership
change within two years following the ownership change resulting from its
bankruptcy reorganization, it would have been precluded from using any NOLs
incurred prior to that second ownership change to offset taxable income for
periods following that ownership change.
As a result of the Section 382(l)(6) election, the Company's NOLs
attributable to the period prior to the ownership change resulting from its
bankruptcy reorganization, as computed for federal and state income tax
purposes, available to be used to offset future taxable income generally was
limited to an annual amount (the Section 382 Limitation) equal to the value of
the Company's equity immediately after that ownership change multiplied by the
then long-term tax-exempt rate. The Section 382 Limitation may also be increased
by certain built-in income items recognized following an ownership change. Based
on values used by the Company in preparing its 1994 federal income tax return,
the Company's Section 382 Limitation that generally applied to all NOLs
attributable to the period prior to the ownership change that resulted from the
Company's bankruptcy reorganization was approximately $2.4 million, plus any
built-in income items as previously discussed. NOLs incurred following that time
were not subject to that limitation. In general, to the extent taxable income
for a year is less than the Section 382 Limitation applicable to that year, the
excess Section 382 Limitation increases the Section 382 Limitation available for
the immediately succeeding year. To the extent the Company's taxable income for
a year exceeds the Section 382 Limitation applicable to that year, plus the
amount of any unused NOLs not subject to the Section 382 Limitation (e.g.,
because they are Post-Change NOLs), the Company will have federal taxable income
subject to tax at a maximum rate of 35.0% (plus any applicable state taxes).
Unused NOLs generally expire 15 years after they are incurred.
At December 31, 1995, the Company has approximately $50.3 million of NOLs
(and equivalent tax credit carryforwards) available to offset future federal and
state taxable income, subject to the application of Section 382 of the Code, as
discussed above. If the Company, in future tax periods, were to recognize tax
benefits attributable to tax attributes of the Predecessor (such as net
operating loss and other carryforwards), any such benefit would first be applied
to reduce the balance of Reorganization value in excess of amounts allocable to
identifiable assets.
Subsequent to December 31, 1995, a series of transactions were consummated
which may have affected the Company's NOLs. See Note 16.
10. BENEFIT PLANS
DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLANS
The Company sponsors several defined benefit pension plans covering
substantially all of its employees hired on or prior to September 1, 1992.
Pilots and ground personnel are covered under three defined benefit pension
plans which provide benefits based primarily on years of service and employee
compensation near retirement. The IAM and salaried defined benefit pension plans
were frozen effective October 1, 1993. Funding for the ground personnel plans is
based on minimum Employee Retirement Income Security Act requirements. Pension
cost for the pilot plan is funded on a

current basis based on the amortization of prior service cost over 20 years.
Plan assets consist primarily of common stocks, government securities, insurance
contract deposits and cash management funds.

The projected benefit obligation was determined using an assumed
weighted-average discount rate of 7.25% for 1995. At December 31, 1995, the
assumed weighted-average rate of compensation increase was 4.50% for pilots and
0.00% for ground personnel. The assumed weighted-average expected long-term rate
of return on plan assets was 9.0% for 1995.
The provisions of SFAS No. 87, "Employers' Accounting for Pensions", require
the recognition of an additional minimum liability for each defined benefit plan
for which the accumulated benefit obligation exceeds plan assets. This amount is
recorded as a long-term liability in Accumulated pension and other
postretirement benefits obligations and a separate reduction of Shareholders'
Equity in the accompanying balance sheets.

Curtailment gain of $12.1 million represents the actuarial equivalent of the
reduction in the net accrued pension benefit obligation as of September 30, 1993
and is reflected in the accompanying financial statements as an extraordinary
item. The gain results from the cessation of future pay and credited service
increases due to the aforementioned freezing of the IAM and salaried employee
defined benefit pension plans as of October 1, 1993.

In the third quarter of 1994, ALPA further ratified certain funding
assumption changes to its defined benefit pension plan which resulted in
decreased required cash contributions to the plan. The changes were ratified by
ALPA in exchange for 1) an additional allowed general unsecured claim

$100,000 in 1994; 3) if applicable, future payment directly by the Reorganized
Company for retirement benefits accrued in excess of statutory compensation
limits; and 4) forgiveness of certain immaterial fees due from ALPA.

benefit obligations of the IAM and salaried defined benefit plans.
POSTRETIREMENT PLANS
In addition to providing pension benefits, the Company sponsors defined
benefit postretirement plans. Employees in the Company's non-pilot group are
eligible for certain medical benefits under one plan if they meet certain age
and service requirements at the time of retirement. Employees in the Company's
pilot group are eligible for certain medical, dental and life insurance benefits
under another plan if they become disabled or reach normal retirement age while
working for the Company. The Company continues to fund the cost of medical,
dental and life insurance benefits in the year incurred.

The medical cost trend rate assumption has a significant effect on the
amounts reported. To illustrate, increasing the assumed medical cost trend rates
by 1.0% in each year would increase the accumulated postretirement benefit
obligation as of December 31, 1993, 1994 and 1995 by $3.5 million, $3.7 million
and $2.9 million, respectively, and the aggregate of the service and interest
cost components of net periodic postretirement benefit cost for the years then

OTHER
The Company also sponsors separate deferred compensation plans (401(k)) for
its pilots, flight attendants and ground and salaried personnel. Participating
employer cash contributions are not required under the terms of the pilots'
plan. However, the Company made contributions of 7.0% in 1993, 5.0% in 1994 and
5.0% in 1995, of defined compensation pursuant to the terms of the flight
attendants' plan. Effective January 1, 1994, the Company is required to match
employee contributions up to an additional 2.0% in the flight attendants' plan.
Contributions to the flight attendants' plan are funded currently and totaled
approximately $868,000, $889,000 and $555,000 in 1993, 1994 and 1995,
respectively.
Effective September 1, 1993, the Company was required to contribute 2.0% of
eligible earnings to the 401(k) plan for ground and salaried personnel.
Effective September 1, 1994, the Company is required to contribute 4.0% of
eligible earnings to the ground and salaried personnel plan. Contributions from
the Company are required only for those employees who were participants in the
plan as of September 1, 1993. Contributions to the ground and salaried 401(k)
plan totaled $288,000, $1.1 million and $1.6 million in 1993, 1994 and 1995,
respectively.
11. COMMON STOCK WARRANTS, RIGHTS AND OPTIONS
EXISTING WARRANTS
In conjunction with the Credit Facility, $2.0 million of letters of credit
were provided by certain third parties as additional security for performance of
the Company's obligations under the Credit Facility. One such letter of credit
in the amount of $1.0 million is guaranteed by Mr. Martin Anderson, a member of
the Board of Directors for fiscal year 1995. The persons providing the letters
of credit received a subordinated security interest in the assets securing the
Financing and received warrants to purchase 989,011 shares of the Reorganized
Company's Class A Common Stock. The warrants have a five-year term, expiring
September 12, 1999, and are exercisable at a price equal to $2.73 per common
share, subject to adjustment pursuant to anti-dilution provisions. No warrants
had been exercised as of December 31, 1995.
SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN
On December 1, 1994, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized
adoption of a shareholder rights plan (the "Rights Plan") pursuant to which
there would be attached to each share of common stock of the Reorganized Company
one preferred stock purchase right (a "PSP Right"). The
F-25
<PAGE>
HAWAIIAN AIRLINES, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
11. COMMON STOCK WARRANTS, RIGHTS AND OPTIONS (CONTINUED)
Rights Plan provides that in the event any person becomes the beneficial owner
of 10.0% or more of the outstanding common shares, each PSP Right (other than a
PSP Right held by the 10.0% shareholder) will be exercisable, on and after the
close of business on the tenth business day following such event, to purchase
Hawaiian Airlines Series A Preferred Stock having a market value equal to two
times the then current exercise price (initially $8.00). The Rights Plan further
provides that if, on or after the occurrence of such event, the Company is
merged into any other corporation or 50.0% or more of the Company's assets or
earning power are sold, each PSP Right (other than a PSP Right held by the 10.0%
shareholder) will be exercisable to purchase common shares of the acquiring
corporation having a market value equal to $16.00. The PSP Rights expire on
December 1, 2004 (unless previously triggered) and are subject to redemption by
the Company at $0.01 per PSP Right at any time prior to the first date upon
which they become exercisable.
1994 STOCK OPTION PLAN
Pursuant to the terms of the Plan of Reorganization, 600,000 shares of the
Company's Class A Common Stock have been reserved for issuance under a 1994
Stock Option Plan. The 1994 Stock Option Plan provides for issuance of options
to officers and key employees of the Company, with the terms of such options and
the recipients of such options to be determined by a committee. In February
1995, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved a form of
nonqualified stock option agreement and granted options to acquire 592,500
shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock. The Compensation Committee
established the exercise price of the options granted as 25.0% of the average of
the closing prices of the Class A Common Stock reported on the AMEX for the 10
consecutive days of trading beginning on June 26, 1995. The application of the
aforementioned formula resulted in an option exercise price of $1.62 per share.
The options vest and are exercisable upon the earlier of February 2, 1996 or
upon a change of control, as described in the 1994 Stock Option Plan. If the
options vest through lapse of time, they may be exercised at any time prior to
February 2, 2005; however, if the options vest due to a change of control, they
may be exercised immediately prior to such change of control, after which any
unexercised options lapse. Noncash compensation expense of approximately $2.0
million for the granted options has been recognized during the year ended
December 31, 1995. The remaining $182,000 of compensation cost has been
reflected as Unearned compensation in the Shareholders' Equity section in the
accompanying balance sheets and will be recognized in January 1996. No options
had been exercised as of December 31, 1995 (options to acquire 592,500 shares
are outstanding).
In January 1996, the AIP Investment and a series of related transactions
were consummated. The AIP Investment and its related transactions resulted in
the immediate vesting of the aforementioned stock options, the Company issuing
warrants to AMR and additional warrants to the holders of the Existing Warrants
and changes to the provisions of the Rights Plan and 1994 Stock Option Plan. See
Note 16.
12. TRANSACTIONS WITH AMERICAN AND CERTAIN OF ITS AFFILIATES
A variety of agreements exist between the Company and American and AMR
Training & Consulting Group, Inc. and its affiliates for certain services,
including data processing, licensing of reservations system, leasing of DC-10-10
aircraft, maintenance services on such DC-10-10 aircraft and participation in
the AAdvantage-Registered Trademark- frequent flyer program. At December 31,
1995, the obligations of the Company under these agreements were secured by a
$2.0 million letter of credit issued under the Company's working capital line of
credit. See Note 7.

12. TRANSACTIONS WITH AMERICAN AND CERTAIN OF ITS AFFILIATES (CONTINUED)
On October 31, 1994, the Company failed to make certain payments due to
American pursuant to the Aircraft Lease Agreement pursuant to which American
leases six DC-10s to the Company. American sent the Company notice of the
failure to make rent and prepaid maintenance payments and noted that such
failure constituted an event of default under the Aircraft Lease Agreement, but
did not declare the Aircraft Lease Agreement in default or exercise any of the
remedies available to it, which include, but are not limited to, termination of
the Aircraft Lease Agreement, repossession of certain aircraft and engines,
recovery of damages and drawings under letters of credit then in place in the
amount of $2.0 million posted by the Company as required by the Aircraft Lease
Agreement. The Company subsequently made the rent and prepaid maintenance
payments due American in November 1994.
In December 1994 and during the first quarter of 1995, the Company again
failed to timely make certain rent and prepaid maintenance payments in full due
pursuant to the Aircraft Lease Agreement. Again, while American sent the Company
notice of the failure to make such payments in full, American did not declare
the Aircraft Lease Agreement in default or exercise any of the remedies
available to it. On several occasions during the year, American deferred the
payment of the delinquent amounts. As of December 9, 1995, the Company owed
American $7.1 million in deferred payments and accrued interest. American agreed
to permit the deferral of the payment of this $7.1 million (plus interest
thereon) and the periodic payments of lease rents and maintenance payments that
would become due on or after December 8, 1995, up to a maximum of an additional
$2.9 million (including interest), until the earlier of the consummation of the
AIP Investment or February 7, 1996. As of January 4, 1996, the Company had
deferred the maximum deferrable amount of lease rents and maintenance payments
under the Aircraft Lease Agreement.
On January 31, 1996, establishment of terms for the repayment of these
delinquencies and certain other agreements and arrangements with American and
AMR were effected upon consummation of the AIP Investment. See Note 16.
13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
LITIGATION
The Company is party to a small number of lawsuits. Four claims remain
asserted against the Reorganized Company for alleged prepetition and/or
administrative claims on or before the Effective Date of the Plan. Management
believes that the Reorganized Company has established adequate reserves for
these bankruptcy related claims.
In addition, the Company is a party to several other claims and legal
actions. In the opinion of management, and after consultation with legal
counsel, the Company believes that the ultimate disposition of these matters
will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's operations or financial
condition.
AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE
Maintenance on the Company's DC-10-10 aircraft fleet is being performed by
American in accordance with FAA regulations and Hawaiian Airlines' approved
maintenance program. In October 1994, December 1994 and during the first quarter
of 1995, the Company was delinquent in making certain payments due American
under its lease arrangement. The October 1994 delinquency was paid in November
1994. The December 1994 and first quarter 1995 delinquencies were deferred by
American throughout 1995. Establishment of terms for the repayment of these
deferrals and certain other arrangements with American were effected subsequent
to December 31, 1995 upon consummation of the AIP Investment and its related
transactions. See Notes 6, 12 and 16.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES (CONTINUED)
Due to the U.S. Government's decision to phase out the VLF/Omega stations,
the Omega navigation system aboard the DC-10-10 aircraft must be updated to
continue overseas operations. The current plan is to change to a dual Global
Positioning System during the heavy phase checks scheduled for 1996. The
estimated cost is $125,000 per aircraft.
Hawaiian Airlines anticipates that in the period 1996 through 1999, five of
its 13 DC-9-50 aircraft will require a heavy airframe overhaul check (the "D
Check"). The D Check for a DC-9-50 requires more than 10,000 man-hours of
maintenance work and includes stripping the airframe, extensively testing the
airframe structure and a large number of parts and components, and reassembling
the overhauled airframe with new or rebuilt components. The Company anticipates
each D Check to cost approximately $1,200,000.
As a result of certain incidents in 1989 and 1988 involving structural
damage to aircraft in flight operated by carriers other than the Company, the
Federal Aviation Administration (the "FAA") is requiring or is expected to
require structural modifications and the replacement of certain parts, as well
as the implementation of additional maintenance programs or changes to current
programs, with respect to various types of aircraft over a certain age. These
requirements vary, depending on the type of aircraft covered. Based on
information currently available, the Company estimates that the total cost of
complying with the aging aircraft requirements over the 1996 through 2000 period
will approximate $600,000 per DC-9-50 aircraft.
In addition, the Company expects to incur approximately $100,000 per DC-9-50
aircraft per year, for maintenance required under a corrosion prevention and
control program. This program is anticipated to continue indefinitely in the
future.
During the period from 1996 through 2000, the Company anticipates
implementing its supplemental inspection document program for certain of its
DC-9-50 aircraft which is estimated to range up to $50,000 per aircraft.
The estimated future cost of complying with FAA regulations as discussed in
the preceding paragraphs will be in addition to the costs of the Company's
current DC-10-10 and DC-9-50 fleet maintenance programs.
LOS ANGELES AIRPORT OPERATING TERMINAL
On December 1, 1985, the Company entered into an Interline Agreement with
other airlines for, among other things, the sharing of costs, expenses and
certain liabilities related to the acquisition, construction and renovation of
certain passenger terminal facilities at the Los Angeles International Airport
("Facilities"). Current tenants and participating members of LAX Two Corporation
(the "Corporation"), a mutual benefit corporation, are jointly and severally
obligated to pay their share of debt service payments related to Facilities
Sublease Revenue Bonds issued to finance the acquisition, construction and
renovation of the Facilities which totaled $111.9 million at completion. The
Corporation leases the Facilities from the Regional Airports Improvement
Corporation under a lease agreement. In addition, the Corporation is also
obligated to make annual payments to the city of Los Angeles for charges related
to its terminal ground rental. All leases of the Corporation are accounted for
as operating leases with related future commitments as of December 31, 1995
amounting to approximately $201.7 million. Rent expense relating to these
operating leases totaled $3.6 million, $4.4 million and $5.9 million in 1993,
1994 and 1995, respectively.
F-28

HAWAIIAN AIRLINES, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES (CONTINUED)
Member airlines pay the expenses associated with the Facilities on a prorata
share basis calculated primarily upon their respective numbers of passengers
utilizing the Facilities. The Company accounts for its obligation under this
agreement as an operating lease and incurred $672,000, $737,000 and $842,000 of
rent expense in 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively.
FREQUENT FLYER PROGRAM
The Company's Gold Plus frequent flyer program offers a variety of awards
based on accumulated mileage. The Company recognizes a liability in the period
in which members have accumulated sufficient mileage points to allow for award
redemption. The incremental cost method is used, computed primarily on the basis
of fuel and catering costs, exclusive of any overhead or profit margin.
Non-travel awards are valued at the incremental cost of tickets exchanged for
such awards.
As of December 31, 1994 and 1995, Gold Plus members had accumulated
approximately 3.0 billion and 3.3 billion miles, respectively, representing
liabilities totaling approximately $489,000 at the end of each year. The
Company's accruals assume full redemption of mileage points. During the years
ended December 31, 1993, 1994 and 1995, 493.0 million, 636.0 million and 581.0
million award miles were redeemed, respectively.
The Company believes that the usage of free travel awards will not result in
the displacement of revenue customers and, therefore, such usage will not
materially affect the Company's liquidity or operating results. The use of free
travel awards is subject to effective capacity control/yield management programs
maintained by the Company to limit the possibility of displacing revenue
passengers. Usage of Gold Plus travel redemption accounted for approximately
2.1%, 2.7% and 2.2% of Interisland traffic and an insignificant percentage of
Transpac and Southpac traffic in 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively.
14. CONCENTRATION OF BUSINESS RISK
The Company's scheduled service operations are primarily focused on
providing air transportation service to, from, or throughout the Hawaiian
Islands. Therefore, the Company's operations, including its ability to collect
its outstanding receivables, are significantly affected by economic conditions
in the State of Hawaii and by other factors affecting the level of tourism in
Hawaii.
The Company's Interisland, Transpac and Southpac scheduled service is
marketed through a number of wholesalers. In 1993, one wholesaler accounted for
approximately 11.0% of total passenger revenues. The wholesaler purchased
approximately $31.0 million of tickets in 1993, primarily in the Interisland and
Transpac markets. No wholesaler accounted for more than 10.0% of total passenger
revenues in 1994 or 1995.
15. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
During 1995, the law firm Goodsill Anderson Quinn & Stifel, of which Mr.
Martin Anderson, a member of the Board of Directors and chairman of the
Compensation Committee during fiscal year 1995, is a partner, billed legal fees
to the Company in the amount of $117,479. As of December 31, 1995, $9,836 of
fees were outstanding. In addition, Goodsill Anderson Quinn & Stifel received
28,606 shares of Class A Common Stock upon the June 19, 1995 initial
distribution by the Company of shares of Class A Common Stock. Goodsill Anderson
Quinn & Stifel sold all 28,606 shares of Class A Common Stock after the initial
distribution.
In conjunction with obtaining financing under the Plan of Reorganization,
$2.0 million of letters of credit were provided by certain third parties as
additional security for performance of the Company's obligations under the
Credit Facility. One such letter of credit in the amount of $1.0 million is
guaranteed by Mr. Anderson. In consideration for the guarantee, Mr. Anderson
received a subordinate

security interest in the assets securing the Credit Facility and received
warrants to purchase 494,505 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock. The
warrants have a five-year term, expiring September 12, 1999, and are exercisable
at a price equal to $2.73 per share, subject to adjustment pursuant to
anti-dilution provisions. See Note 11.
Mr. Clifton Kagawa, a member of the Board of Directors and the Compensation
Committee during fiscal year 1995, is the President and Chief Executive Officer
of Hill and Knowlton Asia Pacific, and senior representative in Hawaii for WPP
Group plc, the parent company of Hill and Knowlton, Inc., and advertising agency
Ogilvy and Mather Worldwide. Hill and Knowlton, Inc. is a public relations
company which provides services to the Company. During 1995, this public
relations company billed the Company for services totaling $170,601. Hill and
Knowlton, Inc. received 1,431 shares of Class A Common Stock upon the June 19,
1995 initial distribution by the Company of shares of Class A Common Stock. Hill
and Knowlton, Inc. sold all 1,431 shares of Class A Common Stock after the
initial distribution. The Company also employs the services of Ogilvy & Mather
Hawaii, which received 20,410 shares of Class A Common Stock upon the June 19,
1995 initial distribution by the Company of shares of Class A Common Stock.
Ogilvy & Mather sold all 20,410 shares of Class A Common Stock after the initial
distribution. During 1995, this advertising agency billed the Company for
services totaling $2,942,574.
Upon consummation of the AIP Investment and its related transactions in
January 1996, both Mr. Anderson and Mr. Kagawa agreed not to stand for
reelection to the Board of Directors and effectively resigned upon the election
of the new Board of Directors at the special meeting of shareholders. Also, the
shares and the exercise price on such shares associated with Mr. Anderson's
warrants were adjusted pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions of the warrants.
See Note 16.
16. FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY AND SUBSEQUENT INVESTMENT AND FINANCIAL
TRANSACTIONS
As discussed in Note 1, the Company's Plan became effective in September
1994, representing the completion of its Chapter 11 reorganization process
within one year and the avoidance of additional costs primarily related to the
transition of its aircraft fleet. Thereafter, the Company financed its
operations through operating cash flow, borrowings under the Credit Facility, a
series of promotional fare ticket sale activities and payment deferrals from
existing creditors, one of which was American. During this period, the Company
also operated with a cash balance equivalent to less than one week's worth of
operating expenses. Operating at that level of liquidity placed the Company's
existence at risk; there was no cushion to respond to unexpected operational
upheavals that have periodically affected the airline industry or to cover the
seasonal downturns typically experienced by the Company.
Due to its working capital shortage, the Company deferred certain
discretionary capital expenditures that management believes may improve
profitability. One example is a series of investments in improved software that
are expected to improve operating efficiency. Another is the outlay required to
consolidate operations into one terminal at Honolulu International Airport. The
working capital shortage also had an unfavorable effect on yield, which,
although difficult to quantify, is believed to be significant. The Company found
it necessary to offer its products to wholesalers and to the public at reduced
rates in order to enhance cash flow. The uncertain financial situation also
limited the availability of trade credit and at times necessitated the use of
cash or equivalent security to obtain services. Finally, potential partners in
the airline industry have been reluctant to enter into business arrangements
with the Company until its financial difficulties have been overcome.
This situation led the Company during 1995 to seek a possible equity
investor. As a result of its efforts, on November 6, 1995, the Company executed
a letter of intent with AIP, which was followed by the execution on December 8,
1995 of the definitive agreement (the "Investment Agreement") setting
F-30

HAWAIIAN AIRLINES, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
16. FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY AND SUBSEQUENT INVESTMENT AND FINANCIAL
TRANSACTIONS (CONTINUED)
forth the terms of the AIP Investment. As of December 31, 1995, the Company had
aggregated a net working capital deficit of $51.7 million, representing a $5.9
million increase from the net working capital deficit of $45.8 million at
December 31, 1994. Principally, the increase in the working capital deficit
resulted from the net of (1) an increase in accounts payable of $17.7 million
primarily due to deferred aircraft lease rents and maintenance payments due
American; (2) a decrease in air traffic liability of $9.9 million due to the
burnoff throughout 1995 of promotional fare ticket sales held in the second and
last quarters of 1994; and (3) miscellaneous changes in other working capital
accounts resulting in a $1.9 million decrease in the working capital deficit
from that of 1994.
The Board of Directors unanimously approved the AIP Investment and believes
that the AIP Investment is in the best interests of the Company and its
shareholders. A special shareholders meeting was held on January 30, 1996 at
which the shareholders approved the series of transactions described below. On
January 31, 1996, the AIP Investment and certain other transactions described
below were consummated, which when considered in combination, are anticipated to
(1) improve the Company's liquidity; (2) reduce operating costs; (3) enable the
Company to make necessary capital expenditures; (4) allow the Company to take
advantage of prompt payment discounts; (5) avoid the need to provide early
payment incentives to wholesalers and become less dependent on promotional fare
ticket sales to the traveling public; and (6) provide coverage for seasonal
working capital needs.
AIP
The AIP Investment consisted of the issuance and sale to AIP of 18,181,818
shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock (the "Shares"), par value $.01 per
share, and four shares of the Company's Class B Special Preferred Stock, par
value $.01 per share, for an aggregate cash purchase price of $20.0 million
under the Investment Agreement. Upon consummation of the AIP Investment, AIP
owns approximately 67.0% of the Company's common equity. As a result, AIP
currently controls substantially all actions to be taken by the shareholders of
the Company. After giving effect to the issuance of shares of Class A Common
Stock upon the exercise of rights proposed to be offered after the consummation
of the AIP Investment as described below (the agreement with AIP requires AIP to
use its best efforts to cause the Company to make such offering), the issuance
of shares of Class A Common Stock upon the exercise of the AMR warrants and
certain other issuances of Class A Common Stock, AIP would own approximately
44.0% of the outstanding common equity of the Company (assuming that the rights
referred to above are exercised by persons other than AIP). Until such time as
AIP ceases to own at least 35.0% of the common equity, it would have the right
to nominate six of the 11 nominees to stand from time to time for election as
directors of the Company. Thereafter, AIP would have the right to nominate five,
four or three directors so long as it owned at least 25.0%, 10.0% or 5.0%,
respectively, of the common equity. On January 30, 1996, six of AIP's director
nominees were elected to the Board of Directors.
AIP and the Company have entered into a registration rights agreement
pursuant to which AIP would have the right to require the Company, on two
occasions, to use its best efforts to register, at the Company's expense, some
or all of the Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"). In addition, AIP would have the right to have the Shares
included in any other registered offering of shares of Class A Common Stock made
within ten years after consummation of the AIP Investment.
RIGHTS OFFERING
Pursuant to the Investment Agreement, AIP agreed to use its best efforts to
cause the Company, as soon as practicable after the consummation of the AIP
Investment, to make a rights offering (the "Rights Offering"). The following is
a description of the Rights Offering as contemplated on March 15,
F-31
<PAGE>
HAWAIIAN AIRLINES, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
16. FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY AND SUBSEQUENT INVESTMENT AND FINANCIAL
TRANSACTIONS (CONTINUED)
1996. Pursuant to the Rights Offering, the Company would offer to such persons
as the Board of Directors shall determine at the time of the Rights Offering
(which would not initially include AIP (except possibly with respect to Rights
not exercised during the allotted time) but would include, among others,
shareholders who hold shares at the record date for the Rights Offering and
holders of options granted under the 1994 Stock Option Plan) rights to purchase
shares of Class A Common Stock (the "Rights"), during a 20-day period after the
issuance of the Rights, at a discount equal to at least 30.0% of the trading
price of the Class A Common Stock measured over a period of time to be
designated by the Board of Directors after the consummation of the AIP
Investment and prior to the Rights Offering, subject to a minimum exercise price
of $1.10 per Right. Unexercised Rights would be offered to certain employees, as
provided in the modifications to the collective bargaining agreements described
below, and possibly to AIP. The other terms and conditions of the Rights
Offering, including the number of Rights to be offered, the record date for the
Rights Offering and whether the Rights would be transferable, would be
established by the Board of Directors at the time of the Rights Offering. It is
currently expected that Rights with respect to approximately 10,000,000 shares
of Class A Common Stock would be offered, subject to the Board's determination
at the time of the Rights Offering. The Rights Offering would be made only by
means of a separate prospectus constituting a part of a registration statement
to be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Company has agreed with GPA Group plc and its affiliate AEROUSA, Inc.
(the "GPA Companies") that, if the closing of the Rights Offering shall have
occurred by September 30, 1996, the Company shall repurchase all of the shares
of Class A Common Stock owned by the GPA Companies and repay certain secured and
unsecured promissory notes held by the GPA Companies. The stock repurchase price
would be $1.10 per share and the promissory notes would be repaid at
approximately 85.0% of the then carrying value of the notes, including any
deferred costs and other expenses owed. Based on the number of shares owned by
the GPA Companies as of January 31, 1996 and the carrying value of the notes as
of such date, the Company would pay approximately $4.91 million to the GPA
Companies. The Company has the option at any time prior to the Rights Offering
to repurchase the GPA Companies' shares and repay their notes on the above
terms. As of March 15, 1996 the Company had not exercised this option.
AMR AND AMERICAN
Upon consummation of the AIP Investment and satisfaction of certain other
conditions, the Company entered into certain arrangements with AMR and American
pursuant to which, AMR and American accepted the following:
- The payment of up to $10.0 million of deferred lease rents and maintenance
payments (and accrued interest thereon) under the Aircraft Lease Agreement
and the reimbursement of American's fees and expenses in connection with
the transaction through the issuance by the Company to American of a
$10.25 million promissory note secured by certain assets of the Company
(the "American Note"). The American Note bears interest at 10.0% per
annum, payable quarterly in arrears, and has a final maturity date of
September 11, 2001. The American Note requires repayment of principal
equal to one-sixth of the original principal amount on each anniversary of
its date of issuance (January 31). The Company has the option to prepay
the American Note for $9.15 million at any time before January 31, 1997,
or at any time thereafter, in whole or in part, at its remaining principal
balance, without premium. The
F-32

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
16. FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY AND SUBSEQUENT INVESTMENT AND FINANCIAL
TRANSACTIONS (CONTINUED)
American Note is prepayable in full, at the option of the holder, in the
event and at the time that any person or group (other than AIP) acquires
more than 30.0% of the voting interest in the Company;
The American Note is secured by a lien on substantially all of the
personal property of the Company through December 31, 1997. This lien is a
first priority lien except that it is junior to (1) liens of security
deposits held by credit card processors and (2) liens securing up to $15.0
million in obligations of the Company consisting of (x) secured
obligations of the Company (other than credit card processor security
deposit liens) existing on the date of issuance of the American Note, and
(y) additional secured obligations of the Company incurred after such
issuance. As of January 31, 1996, in addition to its credit card deposits,
the Company had $7.6 million in secured obligations (including all amounts
under the Credit Facility), the liens of which are prior to the lien of
the American Note. On and after January 1, 1998, the Company is obligated
to secure the American Note and the other obligations of the Company to
American with a first priority lien on identified assets with a fair
market value (supported by an appraisal) of at least 125.0% of the
remaining outstanding principal balance of the American Note from time to
time;
- Basic rents under the Aircraft Lease Agreement have been reduced by
approximately 28.0% for a period of three years, at which time basic rents
would revert back to 1995 levels. The Company has agreed to pay a minimum
monthly charge for maintenance services and basic rents and maintenance
charges are payable monthly in arrears rather than weekly in advance.
American has the right to terminate its obligation to provide aircraft
maintenance services on and after January 1, 1999 upon 180 days prior
notice;
- American's relinquishment of $2.0 million of letters of credit which
secured the Company's obligations to American under the Aircraft Lease
Agreement. The termination of these letters of credit increased the
Company's borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility;
- Issuance of the AMR Warrants to AMR, which entitle the holder to acquire
up to 1,897,946 shares of the Class A Common Stock (the "AMR Warrant
Shares") exercisable at $1.10 per share. One half of the AMR Warrants are
immediately exercisable but the balance of the AMR Warrants are only
exercisable if American and the Company enter into a code sharing
arrangement by January 1, 1997 regarding the placement of the two letter
flight designator code for American's flights on the Company's Interisland
flights. If not exercised, the AMR Warrants expire on September 11, 2001;
and
- American's right to require the Company, on two occasions, to use its best
efforts to register, at the Company's expense, some or all of the AMR
Warrant Shares under the Securities Act. In addition, AMR has the right to
have the AMR Warrant Shares included in any other registered offering of
shares of Class A Common Stock made before September 11, 2001. If any
person or entity acquires a majority of the outstanding Common Stock
before September 11, 2001, the Company is required to use its best efforts
to cause the seller or sellers of such Common Stock to permit AMR to
include AMR Warrant Shares in such sale on the same terms as those
available to such seller. AIP has agreed that, if it were one of the
sellers in such a sale, it would permit AMR to participate in such sale.
The arrangements with American have provided the Company with substantial
benefits. The payment through the American Note of $10.0 million of deferred
rents and maintenance payments otherwise due on February 7, 1996 will
effectively permit the Company to make such payments in
F-33

16. FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY AND SUBSEQUENT INVESTMENT AND FINANCIAL
TRANSACTIONS (CONTINUED)
installments over the period from January 1997 to September 2001, thereby
freeing up working capital for other purposes. In addition, basic rents under
the Aircraft Lease Agreement have been reduced by approximately 28.0% for three
years, resulting in lower operating costs. Furthermore, the release by American
of the security deposit letters of credit resulted in $2.0 million of borrowing
capacity becoming available to the Company under the Credit Facility.
UNIONS AND LABOR AGREEMENTS
Upon consummation of the AIP Investment and satisfaction of certain other
conditions, amendments to the labor agreements for each of the Company's labor
unions became effective.
The amendments to the agreements extend the amendable date of all five
contracts from February 28, 1997 to February 28, 2000. Each of the five unions
agreed to certain economic concessions, which include cancellation of certain
scheduled pay increases, with new pay increases to be effective December 1, 1998
and January 1, 2000. Management expects that these concessions will reduce cash
operating expenses which would have been incurred during the two-year period
ending December 1997. In exchange for the wage concessions, the Company has
agreed to negotiate a gain-sharing program to provide employees the opportunity
to receive wage rate increases resulting from work rule and productivity
modifications, which would produce cost savings to the Company. In addition, the
Company has agreed to establish a profit bonus plan, which would provide all
employees (other than senior management) with cash bonuses if the Company
achieves certain pre-tax profit targets. The contracts as modified provide
additional furlough protection to employees under certain specified
circumstances. The Company and unions also have agreed to include certain
additional low-cost or no-cost provisions that are specific to each of the
respective union contracts.
Pursuant to their collective bargaining agreements, AFA, IAM and ALPA each
have the right to nominate one of the nominees to stand from time to time for
election as directors of the Company. On January 30, 1996, each of the IAM, ALPA
and AFA director nominees were elected to the Board of Directors.
SPECIAL PREFERRED STOCK
As part of the AIP Investment, AIP received four shares of Series B Special
Preferred Stock, which entitle AIP to nominate directors as described above.
AFA, IAM and ALPA each received one share of Series C Special Preferred Stock,
Series D Special Preferred Stock and Series E Special Preferred Stock,
respectively, (collectively the "Special Preferred Stock") which entitle each
union to nominate one director. The holders of each series of the Special
Preferred Stock are entitled to fill a vacancy on the Board of Directors caused
by the removal, resignation or death of a director nominated by that series if
the Board fails to fill such vacancy within 30 days. AIP has agreed with each of
IAM, ALPA and AFA that so long as the right to have a representative on the
Board is in its respective collective bargaining agreement, AIP will vote its
shares in favor of such union's nominee for the Board of Directors. In addition
to the rights of the Special Preferred Stock described above, the Special
Preferred Stock is (1) senior to Common Stock and each series is PARI PASSU with
each other with respect to rights on liquidation, dissolution and winding up and
will be entitled to receive $.01 per share, and no more, before any payments are
made to holders of any stock ranking junior to the Special Preferred Stock; (2)
has no dividend rights other than at any time that a dividend is declared and
paid on the Common Stock dividends in an amount per share equal to twice the
dividend per share paid on the Common Stock will be paid on the Special
Preferred Stock; (3) is entitled to one vote per share and votes with the Class
A Common Stock as a single class on all matters submitted to the shareholders of
the Company; (4) automatically converts into one share of Class A Common Stock

upon the transfer of such share from the person to whom originally issued to any
person that is not an affiliate of such person; and (5) does not have preemptive
rights in connection with future issuances of the Company's capital stock.
AUTHORIZED CAPITAL STOCK
The Amended Articles of Incorporation of the Company, as amended, were
further amended to increase the authorized number of shares of Class A Common
Stock from 40,000,000 shares to 60,000,000 shares. The increase in the number of
authorized shares allows the Company to have a sufficient number of authorized
and unissued shares of Class A Common Stock to permit the exercise of Rights
under the Rights Offering and ensures that the Company will have, from time to
time, an adequate number of authorized and unissued shares available for
corporate purposes, such as future public and private equity offerings, to raise
working capital. As a result of the amendment, the authorized capital stock of
the Company consists of 60,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, par value
$.01 per share, 3,050,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $.01 per
share, and 2,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $.01 par value per share.
Except for shares of Class A Common Stock that have been reserved in
connection with the Existing Warrants, the 1994 Stock Option Plan, the Plan, the
AMR Warrants and the Rights Offering, the Company has no present agreements or
commitments to issue any additional shares of Class A Common Stock.
EXISTING WARRANTS
Pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions of the Existing Warrants, upon the
consummation of the AIP Investment, the exercise price of the Existing Warrants
was adjusted to $1.71 per share and the holders of the Existing Warrants
received warrants to purchase an additional 587,356 shares of Class A Common
Stock exercisable at $1.71 per share as well. The holders of the Existing
Warrants have agreed that the anti-dilution provisions will not apply in
connection with the AMR Warrants and the Rights.
1994 STOCK OPTION PLAN
As discussed in Note 11, options to acquire 592,500 shares of Class A Common
Stock were granted in 1995 pursuant to the terms of the 1994 Stock Option Plan.
The AIP Investment constituted a change of control for purposes of the 1994
Stock Option Plan, thereby accelerating both the vesting and expiration of the
options. In connection with the AIP Investment, the 1994 Stock Option Plan was
amended to extend the option exercise period to February 2, 2005. This amendment
resulted in a new measurement date for the awarded options and approximately
$782,000 of related noncash compensation expense was recorded in January 1996.
RIGHTS PLAN
AIP's acquisition of the Shares would have rendered AIP a "10% Shareholder,"
as that term is defined in the Rights Plan (see Note 11), thereby triggering the
distribution of preferred stock purchase rights to the Company's shareholders.
Pursuant to the Rights Plan, the Board has the power to determine whether any
person, including AIP, is or is not a "10% Shareholder," whether or not such a
determination is adverse to any holder of PSP rights. The Board determined that
AIP's acquisition of the Shares shall not render AIP a "10% Shareholder" and in
anticipation of the AIP Investment, amended the Rights Plan to exclude AIP's
acquisition of the Shares from triggering the distribution of the PSP rights.

16. FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY AND SUBSEQUENT INVESTMENT AND FINANCIAL
TRANSACTIONS (CONTINUED)
TAX AND NET OPERATING LOSS CONSIDERATIONS
The Company believes that the transactions with respect to its equity
following its bankruptcy reorganization, including those pertaining to the AIP
Investment, issuance of the AMR Warrants, consummation of the Rights Offering,
and possible purchases or sales of its stock by significant shareholders or
exercises of options to acquire equity in the Company, has resulted in or has
significantly increased the likelihood of an "ownership change" of the Company
for purposes of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. An ownership change
under Section 382 results in an annual limitation on the amount of pre-ownership
change NOLs of the Company that can be used to offset the Company's taxable
income for periods following the ownership change.
Based on values used by the Company in preparing its 1994 federal income tax
return, the Company's Section 382 Limitation that generally applied to all NOLs
attributable to the period prior to the ownership change that resulted from the
Company's bankruptcy reorganization was approximately $2.4 million, plus certain
"built-in" income items that increase the Section 382 Limitation. While the
Company anticipates that any ownership change resulting from the AIP Investment
and its related transactions would result in a new Section 382 Limitation which
is lower than the Section 382 Limitation in effect previously, the amount of
such reduction and its effect on the Company (as well as the effect on the
Company of subjecting NOLs incurred following the Company's bankruptcy
reorganization to the Section 382 Limitation) depend on numerous issues,
including but not limited to the value of the Company's equity at certain dates,
the amount and timing of future taxable income and loss, and the amount of
"built-in" income items of the Company. Therefore, while the effect of an
ownership change resulting from the AIP Investment and its related transactions
could be to increase the future tax liabilities of the Company, the precise
effect of such an ownership change of the Company resulting from the Investment
and its related transactions is unclear.
CURRENT STATUS
The Company's capital resources have been increased substantially due to the
AIP Investment and the arrangements with American. It is anticipated that the
combination of the Company's improved liquidity and reduced operating costs will
enable the Company to make necessary capital expenditures, take advantage of
prompt payment discounts, avoid the need to provide early payment incentives to
wholesalers and become less dependent on promotional fare ticket sales to the
traveling public, thereby further improving liquidity.
In addition, the Company is anticipating the consummation of the Rights
Offering and as of March 15, 1996 was negotiating to increase the capacity of
the Credit Facility to $15.0 million. No assurance can be given that the Company
will be successful in either of these efforts. If the Company is unsuccessful,
it will seek other sources of financing. However, because the Company has no
remaining unencumbered assets, its access to additional sources of liquidity
remains limited. If the Company is unsuccessful in obtaining additional sources
of liquidity, an adverse change in events and circumstances could result in the
Company being unable to meet its financial obligations after it exhausts its
current and foreseeable capital resources.
The financial statements at December 31, 1995, have been prepared on a going
concern basis which assumes continuity of operations and realization of assets
and liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and
classification of recorded asset amounts, or the amounts and classification of
liabilities that might be necessary as a result of the outcome of future
uncertainties. Management recognizes that the continuation of the Company as a
going concern is dependent upon a return to profitable, positive cash flow
operations and the generation of adequate funds to meet its ongoing obligations.

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Section 415-5 of the Hawaii Business Corporation Act (the "Hawaii
Indemnification Statute") provides that a corporation may indemnify any person
who was or is a party to or is threatened to be made a party to any proceeding,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action
by or in the right of the corporation), by reason of the fact that the person
was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was
serving at the request of the corporation in such a capacity with another
enterprise (such person being hereinafter referred to as the "Indemnitee"). The
indemnity may cover expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines,
settlements and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred in connection
with such proceeding if the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner the
Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests
of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceedings, had
no reasonable cause to believe the Indemnitee's conduct was unlawful.
Section 415-48.5 of the Hawaii Indemnification Statute provides that a
corporation does not have the power to eliminate or limit the personal liability
of a director for (a) any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the
corporation or its shareholders, (b) any act or omission of the director not
performed in good faith, or which involves intentional misconduct or knowing
violation of the law, or which constitutes a willful or reckless disregard of
the director's fiduciary duty, (c) the director's willful or negligent violation
of any provision of the HBCA regarding payment of dividends or stock purchase or
redemption, or (d) any transaction from which the director received an improper
benefit.
The Hawaii Indemnification Statute also provides that, in the case of an
action or suit by or on behalf of the corporation, the corporation has the power
to indemnify an Indemnitee against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually
and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such
action or suit if the
II-1
<PAGE>
Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner the Indemnitee reasonably
believes to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation,
except that no indemnification may be made in respect to any claim, issue or
matter as to which the Indemnitee had been adjudged to be liable for negligence
or misconduct in the performance of the Indemnitee's duties to the corporation
unless, and only to the extent that, the court in which the action or suit was
brought determines that, despite the adjudication of liability, but in view of
all circumstances of the case, the Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled
to indemnity for such expenses as such court deems proper. The provision does
not, however, expressly authorize the corporation to indemnify the Indemnitee
against judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement arising out of a
shareholder's derivative action.
The Hawaii Indemnification Statute further provides that indemnification is
mandatory with respect to expenses incurred in connection with any action, suit
or proceeding, to the extent the Indemnitee is successful on the merits or
otherwise in defense of any such action or claim.
The Hawaii Indemnification Statute allows the payment by the corporation of
expenses incurred by an Indemnitee in advance of the final disposition of an
action, suit or proceeding if the Indemnitee provides an undertaking of
repayment. Additionally, it provides that the indemnity provided by the statute
is not exclusive of any other rights to which an Indemnitee may be entitled
under any bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or
otherwise. It also provides that a corporation may purchase insurance for
officers or directors of the corporation.
Article VII of the Registrant's Amended Articles of Incorporation
incorporates the provisions of the Hawaii Indemnification Statute so as to
provide the indemnification of the Hawaii Indemnification Statute to officers
and directors of the Company. Article VII also provides that the indemnity
provided thereunder is nonexclusive of any other rights of indemnification to
which an Indemnitee may be entitled.
In addition, the Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements
with each of its directors and executive officers providing indemnification to
the fullest extent permitted by law. Furthermore, the Registrant has a policy
of directors' and officers' liability insurance which insures directors and
officers against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment under
certain circumstances.

Item 17. Undertakings
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement;
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of
the Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most
recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth
in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any
increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total
dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was
registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the
estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of
prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in
the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than
a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth
in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
registration statement.
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the
plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration
statement or any material change to such information in the
registration statement;
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed
to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed
to be the initial BONA FIDE offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in the registration
statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time
shall be deemed to be the initial BONA FIDE offering thereof.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:
(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as
part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and
contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to
Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to
be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared
effective.
(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of
prospectus shall be deemed to be anew registration statement relating to
the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that
time shall be deemed to be the initial BONA FIDE offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
II-14
<PAGE>
registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant
in the successful defense or any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

EXHIBIT 23.1
The Board of Directors
Hawaiian Airlines, Inc.:
We consent to the use of our report dated March 15, 1996, included herein,
and to the reference to our firm under the heading "Experts" in the
Prospectus.
Our report dated March 15, 1996, contains an explanatory paragraph that
states that the financial statements of the Reorganized Company reflect the
impact of adjustments to reflect the fair value of assets and liabilities
under fresh start accounting and, as a result, the financial statements of
the Reorganized Company are presented on a different basis than those of the
Predecessor Company.
In addition, our report dated March 15, 1996, contains an explanatory
paragraph that states that the Company's recurring losses from operations,
deficit working capital and limited sources of additional liquidity raise
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from
the outcome of that uncertainty.
