HONOLULU, HAWAII 96819

Dear Fellow Shareholder:

You are cordially invited to attend a special meeting of
shareholders of Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. (the "Company") to be held at the
Sheraton Waikiki, 2255 Kalakaua Avenue, Honolulu, Hawaii 96815, in the
Lanai Room, on Tuesday, January 30, 1996 at 9:00 a.m., Hawaii standard time.

At the special meeting, you will be asked to consider and vote
upon (i) an agreement between the Company and Airline Investors Partnership,
L.P. ("AIP") pursuant to which, among other things, the Company would issue and
sell to AIP 18,181,818 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock and four
shares of the Company's Series B Special Preferred Stock for a purchase price of
$20 million in cash (the "Proposed Investment"), (ii) the amendment of the
Company's Amended Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of
authorized shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company, (iii) the amendment
of the Amended Articles of Incorporation to delete a provision that restricts
certain transfers of the Company's Common Stock, and (iv) the election
of 11 directors to serve until the 1996 annual meeting of shareholders. Each of
the foregoing proposals is more specifically described in the attached Proxy
Statement and you are urged to read the Proxy Statement carefully and in its
entirety.

ALTHOUGH THE FOUR PROPOSALS WILL BE VOTED ON SEPARATELY,
UNLESS THE PROPOSED INVESTMENT IS APPROVED AND THE DIRECTOR NOMINEES ARE
ELECTED, NEITHER AIP NOR THE COMPANY WOULD BE OBLIGATED TO CONSUMMATE THE
PROPOSED INVESTMENT. THE DIRECTORS ELECTED AT THE SPECIAL MEETING WOULD NOT
TAKE OFFICE (AND THE CURRENT DIRECTORS WOULD CONTINUE IN OFFICE) IF THE PROPOSED
INVESTMENT IS NOT CONSUMMATED. CONSUMMATION OF THE PROPOSED INVESTMENT IS ALSO
SUBJECT TO THE SATISFACTION OF CERTAIN CONDITIONS AS DESCRIBED IN THE PROXY
STATEMENT.

In connection with the Proposed Investment, the Company has
entered into certain arrangements with American Airlines, Inc., including an
amendment to the Company's long-term aircraft lease agreements with American,
which provide for, among other things, deferral of certain lease rents and
maintenance payments, and, upon satisfaction of certain conditions, rent
reduction, the making of certain rent and maintenance payments with a secured
promissory note, and the release of a security deposit in the form of a letter
of credit. In addition, the Company has agreed to issue to AMR Corporation (the
parent corporation of American) or its affiliate warrants to acquire up to
approximately 1,906,000 shares of the Class A Common Stock at $1.10 per share.
The AMR warrants will not be issued and certain of the arrangements with
American will terminate if the Proposed Investment is not consummated and
certain other conditions are not satisfied.

In addition, the Company has reached tentative agreements with
each of its four principal labor unions regarding certain modifications to the
collective bargaining agreements between the Company and the labor unions. The
agreed upon modifications include certain wage concessions, which will generate
significant annual cost savings to the Company. The contract modifications are
subject to membership ratification and consummation of the Proposed Investment.

Please see the attached Proxy Statement for more information
regarding the arrangements with American and the labor unions.

<PAGE>

Your Board of Directors has carefully considered the Proposed
Investment and believes that the infusion of equity capital resulting from the
Proposed Investment, as well as the benefits to the Company from the
arrangements with American and the labor unions, is an essential element in the
Company's ongoing efforts to improve its financial condition and to bring needed
working capital to the Company. There is no assurance that the Company would be
able to obtain the necessary capital infusion from other sources on comparable
terms. Consummation of the proposed sale of shares to AIP, together with recent
actions taken by the Company aimed at reducing costs and enhancing our
competitive position, will help the Company in its efforts to meet the
challenges ahead. In connection with its review of the Proposed Investment, the
Board of Directors received a fairness opinion from Jefferies & Company, Inc.

If the Proposed Investment is not consummated and the Company
is unable to obtain an alternate source of adequate working capital
immediately, it may be necessary for the Company to seek protection from its
creditors under federal bankruptcy laws and halt operations. The Company is
currently unaware of any such alternate source of working capital.

YOUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS BELIEVES THAT THE SALE OF SHARES TO AIP
IS FAIR TO, AND IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF, THE COMPANY AND ITS SHAREHOLDERS. THE
BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED THE PROPOSED INVESTMENT AND THE
OTHER PROPOSALS AND UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE "FOR" THE PROPOSED
INVESTMENT AND THE OTHER PROPOSALS BEING SUBMITTED TO THE SHAREHOLDERS AT THE
SPECIAL MEETING.

If the Proposed Investment is consummated, AIP would
initially own approximately 73% of the outstanding voting power of the
Company based on shares outstanding on December 18, 1995 (which would
constitute approximately 68% of the common equity). As a result, AIP would
be able to control 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 Proposed Investment (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, certain other issuances of Class A Common Stock (as described in
the Proxy Statement), and the conversion of all outstanding shares of the
Company's Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock, AIP would
own approximately 44% of the outstanding voting power and 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%
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%, 10% or 5%, respectively, of the
common equity. AIP has designated six of the director nominees being
submitted to the shareholders for approval at the special meeting.

Pursuant to collective bargaining agreements with three of the
Company's labor unions, each such union has the right to nominate one of the 11
nominees to stand from time to time for election as a director of the Company.
Each such union has nominated one of the director nominees being submitted to
the shareholders for election at the special meeting.

<PAGE>

It is important that your shares be represented and voted at
the special meeting to assure the presence of a quorum. PLEASE SIGN AND DATE
THE ENCLOSED PROXY CARD AND PROMPTLY FAX IT TO (212) 946-3991. If it is not
practicable to return the proxy card by fax, please promptly mail it in the
envelope provided. The proxy card should be returned even if you plan to
attend the meeting in person. Returning your executed proxy card will not
affect your right to attend the meeting and vote your shares in person.
Accordingly, I urge you to take a moment now to sign, date and fax or mail
your proxy. I urge you to read the attached Proxy Statement in its entirety
before voting.

On behalf of the Board of Directors, thank you for your support
and continued interest in Hawaiian Airlines.

Respectfully,

/s/ Bruce R. Nobles

PROXY STATEMENT
FOR
SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
JANUARY 30, 1996

____________________________

INTRODUCTION

This Proxy Statement and the accompanying Notice of Special Meeting
of Shareholders and proxy card are being mailed on or about January 16, 1996 in
connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors of
Hawaiian Airlines, Inc., a Hawaii corporation ("Hawaiian Airlines" or the
"Company"), for use at the special meeting of shareholders of the Company
(the "Special Meeting") to be held at the Sheraton Waikiki, 2255 Kalakaua
Avenue, Honolulu, Hawaii 96815, in the Lanai Room, on Tuesday, January 30,
1996 at 9:00 a.m., Hawaii standard time, and any adjournment or postponement
thereof.

SUMMARY DESCRIPTION OF MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED

THE FOLLOWING IS A SUMMARY OF THE PROPOSALS (THE "PROPOSALS")
TO BE VOTED UPON BY THE SHAREHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY AT THE SPECIAL MEETING.
THIS SUMMARY IS NOT INTENDED TO BE COMPLETE AND IS QUALIFIED IN ITS ENTIRETY BY
THE MORE DETAILED INFORMATION AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND NOTES THERETO
CONTAINED ELSEWHERE IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT. SHAREHOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ
THIS PROXY STATEMENT IN ITS ENTIRETY.

PROPOSAL 1 - PROPOSED INVESTMENT PROPOSAL

THE INVESTMENT AGREEMENT

At the Special Meeting, shareholders will be asked to consider
and vote upon approval of the Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of December
8, 1995 between the Company and Airline Investors Partnership, L.P., a
Delaware limited partnership ("AIP"), as the same may be amended from time to
time (the "Investment Agreement"), and the performance by the Company of all
transactions and acts contemplated by the Investment Agreement (collectively,
the "Proposed Investment"), including, among other things, the issuance and
sale to AIP of 18,181,818 shares (the "Shares") of the Company's Class A
Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Class A Common Stock"), and four
shares of the Company's Series B Special Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per
share (the "Series B Special Preferred Stock"), for an aggregate purchase
price of $20 million in cash. The Proposed Investment is subject to the
satisfaction of certain conditions on or before January 31, 1996, including,
among other things, (i) approval of the Proposed Investment and the election
of the director nominees by the requisite vote of

<PAGE>

shareholders at the Special Meeting, (ii) the aircraft lease with American
Airlines, Inc. ("American") being in full force and effect and the other
arrangements between the Company and American described below having been
entered into and being in full force and effect, (iii) ratification by the
Company's four principal labor unions of certain modifications to their
collective bargaining agreements described below (which ratification is being
sought in mid-January), (iv) waiver by the holders of existing warrants of
certain anti-dilution rights, and (v) the obtaining of all necessary
regulatory consents and approvals. Failure of any of the foregoing conditions
would permit AIP to terminate the Investment Agreement and not make the
Proposed Investment. No assurance can be given that all of the conditions to
the Proposed Investment will be satisfied.

AIP is an investment partnership formed to make the
Proposed Investment. AIP is a Delaware limited partnership, the sole general
partner of which is AIP General Partner, Inc., a Delaware corporation.
Messrs. John W. Adams and Richard F. Conway, two of the director nominees
designated by AIP, are the President and Vice President, respectively, of AIP
General Partner, Inc. Mr. Adams is also the sole shareholder of AIP General
Partner, Inc.

If the Proposed Investment is consummated, AIP would
initially own approximately 73% of the outstanding voting power of the
Company based on shares outstanding on December 18, 1995 (which would
constitute approximately 68% of the common equity). As a result, AIP would
be able to control 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 the rights proposed to be offered after the
consummation of the Proposed Investment as described below, the issuance of
shares of Class A Common Stock upon the exercise of the warrants described
below to be issued to AMR Corporation ("AMR"), certain other issuances of
Class A Common Stock described in this Proxy Statement, and the conversion of
all outstanding shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock, par value $.01
per share (the "Class B Common Stock" and together with the Class A Common
Stock, the "Common Stock"), into shares of Class A Common Stock, AIP would
own approximately 44% of the outstanding voting power and 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%
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%, 10% or 5%, respectively, of the
common equity. AIP has designated six of the director nominees being
submitted to the shareholders for election at the Special Meeting. See
"Investment Proposal-Effect on Existing Shareholders-Control of the Company."

Pursuant to collective bargaining agreements with three of the
Company's labor unions, each such union has a right to nominate one of the 11
nominees to stand from time to time for election as a director of the Company.
Each such union has nominated one of the director nominees being submitted to
the shareholders for election at the Special Meeting. See "Investment Proposal-
Control of the Company."

The Investment Agreement, as well as the modifications to the
collective bargaining agreements with the Company's four principal labor unions,
require that the Company's Amended Bylaws (the "Bylaws") be further amended to
provide for the nomination of directors as described above. In addition, the
Bylaw amendments provide that one director is to be an outside director, defined
as an individual not employed by the Company and not affiliated with the
Company's labor unions, AIP, or American, and one director is to be a senior
management official from the Company. The Bylaw amendments have been approved
by the Board of Directors and shareholder approval (which is not required) will
not be sought. The amendments would take effect upon the consummation of the
Proposed Investment.

If the Proposed Investment is consummated, the Company will
enter 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 the
consummation of the Proposed Investment.

The Investment Agreement requires AIP to use its best efforts
to cause the Company, as soon as practicable after the consummation of the
Proposed Investment, to make a rights offering (the "Rights Offering") pursuant
to which the Company would offer to

<PAGE>

such persons as the Board of Directors shall determine at the time of the
Rights Offering (which would not include AIP (except possibly with respect to
Rights not exercised during the allotted time) but would include, among
others, shareholders as of the record date for the Special Meeting who
continue to hold shares until the Rights Offering and holders of options
granted under the 1994 Stock Option Plan) rights ("Rights") to purchase
shares of Class A Common Stock, during the 20-day period after the issuance
of the Rights, at a discount equal to at least 30% 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 Proposed 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 "SEC"). See "Investment
Proposal-Rights Offering."

The Company and AIP are currently in discussion regarding the
possibility of AIP making available a bridge loan facility (the "Bridge Loan
Facility") of up to $3 million in order to provide the Company with
short-term working capital pending the consummation of the Proposed
Investment. As currently proposed, the Bridge Loan Facility would permit the
Company to borrow, with AIP's consent, funds to pay for operating expenses
during the period prior to the earlier of the closing of the Proposed
Investment and termination of the Investment Agreement. Borrowings under the
Bridge Loan facility would be evidenced by a promissory note (the "Bridge
Loan Note"), due on the earlier of the closing of the Proposed Investment and
February 10, 1996, bearing interest at 10% per annum and secured by certain
assets of the Company. Subject to certain conditions, the Bridge Loan Note
would be convertible, at the option of the holder at any time into shares of
the Company's Class A Common Stock at $1.10 per share. If the Proposed
Investment is consummated, the Bridge Loan Note would be converted
automatically into a portion of the 18,181,818 Shares issued in the Proposed
Investment and the $20 million purchase Price for the Shares would be reduced
accordingly. The terms of the Bridge Loan Facility are still being finalized
and no assurance can be given that the Bridge Loan Facility will become
available to the Company. If the Bridge Loan Facility does not become
available, the Company expects that it will exhaust its cash resources prior
to the date of the Special Meeting. If this were to happen, the Company may
have to seek protection from its creditors under federal bankruptcy laws and
halt operations. See "Investment Proposal - Possible Bridge Loan."

For more information regarding the terms of the Investment
Agreement, see "Investment Proposal-Description of Investment Agreement." A
copy of the Investment Agreement is included as Annex I to this Proxy
Statement. For more information regarding AIP, see "Investment Proposal-
Information Regarding AIP."

ARRANGEMENTS WITH AMERICAN

In connection with the Proposed Investment, the Company has
entered into certain arrangements with American, including an amendment to
the Company's long-term aircraft lease agreements with American, which
provide for, among other things, deferral of certain lease rents and
maintenance payments, and, upon satisfaction of certain conditions, rent
reduction, the making of certain rent and maintenance payments with a secured
promissory note, and the release of a security deposit in the form of a
letter of credit. In addition, the Company has agreed to issue to AMR (the
parent corporation of American) or its affiliate warrants to acquire up to
approximately 1,906,000 shares of the Class A Common Stock at $1.10 per share
on or before September 11, 2001 (the "AMR Warrants"). The AMR Warrants will
not be issued and certain of the arrangements with American will terminate if
the Proposed Investment is not consummated and certain other conditions are
not satisfied. It is a condition to the Proposed Investment that the aircraft
lease, as amended, be in full force and effect and that the other
arrangements between the Company and American be entered into and be in full
force and effect. See "Investment Proposal-Background and Reasons for the
Proposed Investment-American Deferral" and "-Description of Arrangements with
American."

ARRANGEMENTS WITH PRINCIPAL LABOR UNIONS

In addition, the Company has reached tentative agreements with each
of its four principal labor unions regarding certain modifications to the
collective bargaining agreements between the Company and the labor unions. The
agreed upon modifications include certain wage concessions, which will generate
significant annual cost savings to the

<PAGE>

Company. The contract modifications are subject to membership ratification
(which is being sought in mid-January) and consummation of the Proposed
Investment. It is a condition to the Proposed Investment that the contract
modifications be ratified by the union memberships. See "Investment
Proposal-Description of Arrangements with Principal Labor Unions."

BACKGROUND AND REASONS FOR THE PROPOSED INVESTMENT

As described in more detail below, for a variety of reasons,
including the Company's financial results, its inability to meet its current
financial responsibilities, including its obligations to American, thereby
creating an urgent need to obtain an infusion of capital, and the uncertain
economic outlook, the Board of Directors determined in February 1995 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. As a result of such 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 Investment Agreement setting out the terms of
the Proposed Investment.

If the Proposed Investment is consummated, the Company
would receive $20 million in cash minus transaction expenses (estimated to be
$2.5 million), thereby substantially improving the Company's liquidity. In
addition, in connection with the Proposed Investment and the satisfaction of
certain conditions, the Company would have the benefit of certain
arrangements with American, which would further improve the Company's
liquidity by approximately $15 million (due primarily to deferral of rent,
the elimination of currently required security deposits, and the timing of
future rent payments) and would result in the reduction of cash operating
expenses by approximately $3 million per year for three years. Furthermore,
certain arrangements with its principal labor unions would result in cash
operating expenses for the next four years averaging an amount currently
estimated to be at least $5 million per year less than would otherwise be the
case. It is anticipated that the combination of the Company's improved
liquidity and reduced operating costs would 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 ticket sales to the traveling public. It will
also provide coverage for seasonal working capital needs, which tend to be
highest in the first quarter of the year. For more information regarding the
arrangements with American and the principal labor unions, see "Investment
Proposal -- Description of Arrangements with American" and "-- Description of
Arrangements with Principal Labor Unions."

If the Proposed Investment is not consummated, the Company
would have to seek alternate sources of working capital immediately. The
Company is currently unaware of any alternate source of adequate working capital
and there can be no assurance that the Company would be able to obtain the
necessary capital or that the terms under which it would be available would be
as favorable as those of the Proposed Investment. Failure to obtain the
necessary working capital on a timely basis would materially impair the
Company's ability to continue its operations and may make it necessary for the
Company to seek protection from its creditors under federal bankruptcy laws.

For more information regarding the background and reasons for
the Proposed Investment, see "Investment Proposal-Background and Reasons for the
Proposed Investment."

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS BELIEVES THAT THE SALE OF SHARES TO AIP
PURSUANT TO THE INVESTMENT AGREEMENT IS FAIR TO, AND IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF,
THE COMPANY AND ITS SHAREHOLDERS. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS UNANIMOUSLY
APPROVED THE PROPOSED INVESTMENT AND THE OTHER PROPOSALS AND UNANIMOUSLY
RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE "FOR" THE PROPOSED INVESTMENT AND THE OTHER PROPOSALS
DESCRIBED BELOW.

The Board of Directors reserves the right to amend or waive the
provisions of the Investment Agreement and the other documents relating thereto
in all respects before or

<PAGE>

after the approval of the Proposed Investment by the shareholders. In addition,
the Board of Directors reserves the right to terminate the Investment Agreement
in accordance with its terms notwithstanding shareholder approval.

PROPOSAL 2 - AMENDMENT OF ARTICLE IV OF ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION

At the Special Meeting, shareholders will be asked to consider
and vote upon adoption of an amendment (the "First Proposed Charter Amendment")
to the Amended Articles of Incorporation of the Company, as amended (the
"Articles of Incorporation"), to amend Article IV to increase the authorized
number of shares of Class A Common Stock from 40,000,000 shares to
60,000,000 shares.

The amendment to Article IV is being proposed so that the
Company would have a sufficient number of authorized and unissued shares of
Class A Common Stock to permit the exercise of all Rights under the Rights
Offering, as well as to provide the Company with authorized and unissued shares
that could be issued from time to time in the future to raise working capital.
After giving effect to the issuance of the Shares to AIP, the reservation of
shares of Class A Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the AMR Warrants and the
reservation of shares of Class A Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the anti-
dilution provisions of currently outstanding warrants (which anti-dilution
provisions would be triggered by the issuance of the Shares), the Company would
have approximately 8,225,000 authorized and unissued shares of Class A Common
Stock not reserved for future issuance. Therefore, absent the amendment of
Article IV, the Company would not have sufficient shares of Class A Common Stock
available for issuance upon exercise of the Rights (currently estimated to be
approximately 10,000,000).

If the First Proposed Charter Amendment is not approved at the
Special Meeting, the Board of Directors would resubmit the First Proposed
Charter Amendment for shareholder approval following the consummation of the
Proposed Investment and AIP has agreed under the Investment Agreement to vote
in favor of the First Proposed Charter Amendment. Following consummation of
the Proposed Investment, AIP would have sufficient voting power to approve
the First Proposed Charter Amendment regardless of the vote of other
holders of Class A Common Stock.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED THE FIRST
PROPOSED CHARTER AMENDMENT AND UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE "FOR"
SUCH PROPOSAL.

The First Proposed Charter Amendment will also be submitted
to the holders of Class B Common Stock for their approval and will not be
adopted unless it is approved by the required vote of both the holders of the
Class A Common Stock and the holders of the Class B Common Stock voting as
separate classes.

For more information regarding the First Proposed Charter
Amendment, see "Charter Amendments Proposals."

PROPOSAL 3 - DELETION OF ARTICLE XIII OF ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION

At the Special Meeting, shareholders will be asked to consider
and vote upon adoption of an amendment (the "Second Proposed Charter Amendment")
to the Articles of Incorporation to delete Article XIII in its entirety.

Article XIII restricts certain transfers of the Common Stock
in order to prevent an "ownership change" of the Company for federal income
tax purposes. Article XIII provides that, following an ownership change,
such transfer restrictions cease to be effective. The deletion of Article
XIII has been proposed because the Company believes that the restrictions
contained in Article XIII are no longer warranted. Furthermore, although the
matter is not free from doubt, the Proposed Investment could constitute an
ownership change, thereby terminating the transfer restrictions pursuant to
their terms.

If the Second Proposed Charter Amendment is not approved at
the Special Meeting, the Board of Directors would resubmit the Second
Proposed Charter Amendment for shareholder approval following the
consummation of the Proposed Investment and AIP has agreed under the
Investment Agreement to vote in favor of the Second Proposed Charter
Amendment. Following consummation of the Proposed Investment, AIP would have
sufficient voting power to approve the Second Proposed Charter Amendment
regardless of the vote of other shareholders.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED THE SECOND
PROPOSED CHARTER AMENDMENT AND UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE "FOR"
SUCH PROPOSAL.

For more information regarding the Second Proposed Charter
Amendment, see "Charter Amendments Proposals."

PROPOSAL 4 - ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

At the Special Meeting, shareholders will be asked to consider
and vote upon the election of 11 directors, five of whom are currently serving
as directors of the Company and the other six of whom have been designated by
AIP. Of the five current directors, three

<PAGE>

have been nominated by three of the Company's labor unions pursuant to their
respective collective bargaining agreements. The six directors designated by
AIP would replace current directors who would resign upon consummation of the
Proposed Investment. Each director elected at the Special Meeting would hold
office from the date of consummation of the Proposed Investment until his or
her successor shall have been elected and shall qualify at the Company's 1996
Annual Meeting of Shareholders or until he or she shall resign or shall have
been removed as provided in the Bylaws.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED THE NOMINATION
OF THE 11 DIRECTOR NOMINEES AND UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE "FOR" THE
ELECTION OF EACH NOMINEE.

For more information regarding the director nominees, see
"Election of Directors."

OTHER BUSINESS

In addition to the Proposals, at the Special Meeting,
shareholders will be asked to transact such other business as may properly come
before the Special Meeting and any postponement or adjournment thereof.

REVOCABILITY OF PROXIES

A proxy (a "Proxy") for use at the Special Meeting is enclosed.
Any shareholder who executes and delivers a Proxy has the right to revoke it at
any time before it is voted by filing with the Corporate Secretary of the
Company an instrument revoking it or a duly executed Proxy bearing a later date.
It also may be revoked by attending the Special Meeting and voting in person.
Subject to such revocation, all shares represented by a properly executed Proxy
received prior to or at the Special Meeting will be voted by the proxy holders
whose names are set forth in the accompanying Proxy (the "Proxy Holders") in
accordance with the instructions on the Proxy. If no instruction is specified
with respect to a Proposal, the shares represented by the Proxy will be voted
FOR such Proposal (and, in the case of Proposal 4, FOR the nominees for director
identified in this Proxy Statement). It is not anticipated that any matters
will be presented at the Special Meeting other than as set forth in the
accompanying Notice of Special Meeting of Shareholders. If, however, any other
matters properly are presented at the Meeting, the Proxy will be voted in
accordance with the best judgment and in the discretion of the Proxy Holders.

COSTS OF SOLICITATION OF PROXIES

This solicitation of Proxies is made for the Board of
Directors, and the Company will bear the costs of this solicitation, including
the expense of preparing, assembling, printing and mailing this Proxy Statement
and the material used in this solicitation of Proxies. It is contemplated that
Proxies will be solicited principally through the mails, but directors, officers
and regular employees of the Company may solicit Proxies personally or by
telephone. Although there is no formal agreement to do so, the Company may
reimburse banks, brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries
for their reasonable

<PAGE>

expenses in forwarding these proxy materials to their principals. To assure
the presence in person or by proxy of the largest number of shareholders
possible, the Company has engaged Chemical Mellon Shareholder Services to
solicit proxies on behalf of the Company for a fee of $5,500.00 plus $3.50
per solicitation call plus reasonable fees and expenses. In addition, the
Company may pay for and use the services of other individuals or companies
not regularly employed by the Company in connection with the solicitation of
Proxies if the Board of Directors determines that this is advisable.

RECORD DATE, VOTING SECURITIES AND VOTING RIGHTS

Holders of record of Class A Common Stock at the close of
business on December 18, 1995 (the "Record Date") are entitled to notice of and
to vote at the Special Meeting and any adjournment or postponement thereof. On
the Record Date, 6,845,105 shares of Class A Common Stock were outstanding and
entitled to vote. Each outstanding share of Class A Common Stock entitles the
holder thereof to one vote. Holders of the Class B Common Stock will not be
entitled to vote at the Special Meeting.

Pursuant to Rule 713 of the American Stock Exchange (the
"AMEX") and the Company's listing agreement with the AMEX with respect to the
outstanding Class A Common Stock, shareholder approval is required for a
transaction involving the issuance by the Company of common stock equal to
20% or more of presently outstanding common stock for less than the greater
of book or market value of the stock. The Proposed Investment would
constitute such an issuance. Under the rules of the AMEX, the affirmative
vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of Class A Common Stock
voting in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting is required to approve
the Proposed Investment, provided that a quorum is present at the Special
Meeting.

Pursuant to Article XI of the Articles of Incorporation,
approval of each of the First and Second Proposed Charter Amendments requires
the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than two-thirds of the issued
and outstanding Class A Common Stock, although the First Charter Amendment
will be separately submitted to the holders of Class B Common Stock for their
approval and will not be adopted unless also approved by the holders of at
least two-thirds of the issued and outstanding Class B Common Stock as well.

The presence, in person or by proxy, at the Special Meeting
of the holders of a majority of the shares of Class A Common Stock
outstanding as of the Record Date will constitute a quorum for transacting
business. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of
determining whether a quorum is present at the Special Meeting for the
transaction of business and will be treated as the equivalent of a vote
against each of the Proposed Charter Amendments and the election of any
director nominee for the purpose of determining whether those Proposals have
been adopted but will constitute neither a vote for or against the Proposed
Investment.

INVESTMENT PROPOSAL

THE MATERIAL ASPECTS OF THE PROPOSED INVESTMENT ARE SUMMARIZED
BELOW. THE SUMMARY IS QUALIFIED IN ITS ENTIRETY BY REFERENCE TO THE
INVESTMENT AGREEMENT, A COPY OF WHICH IS ATTACHED AS ANNEX I TO THIS PROXY
STATEMENT AND IS INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE. SHAREHOLDERS ARE URGED
TO READ THE INVESTMENT AGREEMENT IN ITS ENTIRETY.

INTRODUCTION

At the Special Meeting, shareholders will be asked to consider and
vote upon approval of the Investment Agreement, which was entered into on
December 8, 1995 between the Company and AIP, and the performance by the
Company of all transactions and acts contemplated by the Investment
Agreement. The Proposed Investment would consist of the issuance and sale to
AIP of 18,181,818 shares of Class A Common Stock and four shares of Series B
Special Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $20 million in
cash. If the Proposed Investment is approved and the director nominees are
elected at the Special Meeting, it is anticipated that the Proposed
Investment would be consummated the day after the Special Meeting, assuming
satisfaction or waiver of all conditions to closing. See "Description of
Investment Agreement" below. If the Proposed Investment is consummated, AIP
would initially own approximately 73% of the outstanding voting power of the
Company, although AIP's voting power would be approximately 44% on a fully
diluted basis if all of the Rights currently expected to be offered in the
Rights Offering are exercised by persons other than AIP. See "Effect on
Existing Shareholders-Dilution" below.

BACKGROUND AND REASONS FOR THE PROPOSED INVESTMENT

OVERVIEW

As described in more detail below, for a variety of reasons, including
the Company's financial results, its inability to meet its current financial
responsibilities, including its obligations to American, thereby creating an
urgent need to obtain an infusion of capital, and the uncertain economic
outlook, the Board of Directors determined in February 1995 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 financial advisor,
Jefferies & Company, Inc., identified and met with potential investors,
including AIP, regarding a possible equity investment in the Company.
As a result of such 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 Investment Agreement setting out the terms of the Proposed
Investment.

If the Proposed Investment is consummated, the Company would
receive $20 million in cash minus transaction expenses (estimated to be $2.5
million), thereby substantially improving the Company's liquidity. In
addition, in connection with the Proposed Investment and the satisfaction of
certain conditions, the Company would have the benefit of certain
arrangements with American, which would further improve the Company's
liquidity by approximately $15 million (due primarily to deferral of rent, the
elimination of currently required security deposits, and the timing of future
rent payments) and would result in the reduction of cash operating expenses by
approximately $3 million per year for three years. Furthermore, certain
arrangements with its principal labor unions would result in cash operating
expenses for the next four years averaging an amount currently estimated
to be at least $5 million per year less than would otherwise be the case. See
"Description of Arrangements with American" and "Description of Arrangements
with Principal Labor Unions" below. It is anticipated that the combination of
the Company's improved liquidity and reduced operating costs would enable the
Company to make necessary capital expenditures, take advantage of prompt payment
discounts, avoid the need to provide early

<PAGE>

payment incentives to wholesalers and become less dependent on promotional
ticket sales to the traveling public. It will also provide coverage for
seasonal working capital needs, which tend to be highest in the first quarter of
the year. See "Use of Proceeds" below.

If the Proposed Investment is not consummated, the Company would have
to seek alternate sources of working capital immediately. The Company is
currently unaware of any alternate source of adequate working capital and there
can be no assurance that the Company would be able to obtain the necessary
capital or that the terms under which it would be available would be as
favorable as those of the Proposed Investment. Failure to obtain the necessary
working capital on a timely basis would materially impair the Company's ability
to continue its operations and may make it necessary for the Company to seek
protection from its creditors under federal bankruptcy laws.

THE AIRLINE INDUSTRY

The Company's passenger airline business is its chief source of
revenue. Scheduled passenger service consists of, on average, approximately one
hundred fifty flights per day among the six major islands of the State of Hawaii
("Interisland"), daily service, primarily to U.S. West Coast cities ("Transpac")
and two flights per week to Pago Pago, American Samoa and one flight per week to
Papeete, Tahiti in the South Pacific ("Southpac"). At November 30, 1995, the
Company's Interisland fleet consisted of thirteen DC-9-50 aircraft; its Transpac
and Southpac operations were served by eight DC-10-10 aircraft leased from
American.

The airline industry is a highly cyclical business with substantial
volatility, and airlines frequently experience short-term peak cash requirements
caused by both seasonal fluctuations in traffic that often put a drain on cash
during off-peak periods and other exogenous factors, such as fuel price
fluctuations or unexpected maintenance costs. Accordingly, airlines require
substantial working capital to sustain continued operations under most
conditions. The Company has operated with limited cash resources and a working
capital deficit for a number of years. Although working capital deficits are
not uncommon in the airline industry since airlines typically have no product
inventories and trips sold but not yet flown are reflected as current
liabilities, the Company believes that its working capital deficit is an extreme
case. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below.

Since the commencement of deregulation in 1978, the airline industry
has become extremely competitive and volatile. Increased competition, rising
operational costs and pricing pressures have created financial difficulties for
most airlines and many airlines have been acquired, forced to restructure or
ceased operations. As with other airlines, Hawaiian Airlines has been adversely
affected by these conditions.

REORGANIZATION OF THE COMPANY

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 "Debtors" or "Predecessor")
commenced reorganization cases by filing voluntary petitions for relief under
Chapter 11, Title 11 of the United States Code ("Chapter 11") in the United
States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Hawaii (the "Bankruptcy Court").
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 "Plan of Reorganization"). On August 30, 1994, the
Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Plan of Reorganization and,
with the

<PAGE>

satisfaction of certain conditions, the Plan of Reorganization became effective
on September 12, 1994 (the "Effective Date").

Pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, 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. On the
Effective Date, all of the outstanding equity securities of the Company, HAL,
INC., and West Maui Airport, Inc. were canceled, including without limitation,
all outstanding common, preferred and preference stock of HAL, INC.

Under the Plan of Reorganization, the Company was to issue and
distribute 9,400,000 shares of its common stock to all of the unsecured
creditors with claims allowed under the Plan of Reorganization. The
Company's common stock consists 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 18, 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 another 636,247
shares of Class A Common Stock by late 1996. As each disputed claim is
finally resolved, the creditor holding such claim will receive a distribution
of stock. Any shares withheld in excess of the amount distributed to such
creditor will be held until all disputed claims have been resolved. The
disputed claims consist of an aggregate of $1,053,332 for prepetition
violations and other claims asserted by various governmental agencies,
$5,143,645 for damages arising from the return of aircraft asserted by the
FDIC, as receiver, an aggregate of $30,000 for indemnification asserted by
three former employees and an aggregate of $2,503,854 for prepetition
contractual disputes asserted by several aircraft-related companies. 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. It is currently anticipated that following the consummation of the
Proposed Investment all outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock will be
converted into shares of Class A Common Stock.

Pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, the Company has granted
warrants to purchase an additional 989,011 shares of Class A Common Stock (the
"Existing Warrants"), none of which have been exercised. In addition, pursuant
to the Plan of Reorganization, 600,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common
Stock have been reserved for issuance under the Company's 1994 Stock Option
Plan.

The Company's Class A Common Stock began trading on the AMEX and the
Pacific Stock Exchange on June 21, 1995.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Since its reorganization, the Company has financed its operations from
operating cash flow and borrowings under an $8.15 million credit facility
provided by CIT Group/Credit Finance, Inc. (the "Credit Facility"). The Company
currently does not have access to other credit facilities and does not have any
unencumbered assets. Accordingly, its access to additional sources of liquidity
is limited to payment deferrals from existing creditors, promotional ticket
sales and the sale of its equity securities.

The Credit Facility, which was approved by the Bankruptcy Court on
July 27, 1994, consists of a secured revolving credit facility and up to $3.0
million of letters of credit capacity. On the Effective Date, $2.0 million of
the revolving credit facility and $3.0 million of letters of credit were funded
to the Company. Available credit is subject to reduction determined by
recalculation of the borrowing base and repayments arising from disposition of
collateral. As of November 30, 1995, the total availability under the Credit
Facility had been effectively reduced due to recalculation of the borrowing base
to approximately $3.7 million, which amount was fully drawn in the form of $1.6
million in borrowings and $2.1 million in letters of credit. The Credit
Facility contains certain restrictive covenants, including one that requires the
Company to maintain a minimum net worth. Effective April 13, 1995, the

<PAGE>

minimum required net worth covenant was reduced from $28.0 million to $20.0
million. At September 30, 1995, the Company's net worth, as reflected in its
historical cost financial statements, was $29.9 million.

In order to increase liquidity, the Company has engaged in a series of
promotional ticket sale activities. Such promotional sales increase liquidity,
but also increase air traffic liability, which could adversely affect yields and
revenues, as well as liquidity in future periods.

As of September 30, 1995, the Company had a net working capital
deficit of $46.3 million, representing a $500,000 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 a net increase in accounts
payable, accrued liabilities and air traffic liability of $10.5 million being
offset by an aggregate increase in cash and accounts receivable of $10.2
million.

For several years, the Company has been operating with a cash balance
equivalent to less than one week's worth of operating expenses. Continuing to
operate at that level of liquidity would place the Company's existence at risk;
there would be no cushion to respond to unexpected operational upheavals that
have periodically affected the airline industry or to cover the seasonal
downturn typically experienced by the Company in the first quarter of the year.

Due to its working capital shortage, the Company has recently deferred
certain discretionary capital expenditures that could provide a high rate of
return. One example is a series of investments in improved software that are
expected to increase operating efficiency. Another is the outlay needed to
consolidate operations into one terminal at Honolulu International Airport. The
working capital shortage also has had an unfavorable effect on yield, which,
although difficult to quantify, is believed to be significant. The Company has
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
has also limited the availability of trade credit and at times has 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
convincingly overcome for the long term.

AMERICAN DEFERRAL

Since the Effective Date, the Company has continued to experience
liquidity shortfalls. On October 31, 1994, the Company failed to make certain
payments due to American pursuant to the long-term aircraft lease agreement
entered into on the Effective Date (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
in the amount of $2 million posted by the Company as required by the Aircraft
Lease Agreement. The Company subsequently made the rent and prepaid maintenance
payments due American on November 4, and November 15, 1994, respectively.

<PAGE>

In December 1994 and January, February and March 1995, the Company
again failed to timely make certain payments in full due pursuant to the
Aircraft Lease Agreement. Again, while American sent the Company notice of the
failure to make such rent and prepaid maintenance payments in full, American did
not declare the Aircraft Lease Agreement in default or exercise any of the
remedies available to it. Effective April 13, 1995, the Company and American
executed an amendment to the Aircraft Lease Agreement providing for the deferral
of payment of approximately $11.1 million of delinquent rent and maintenance
payments. The amendment provided that the Company was to remit periodic
payments (generally on a weekly basis) to American commencing March 31, 1995 and
ending December 22, 1995, in amounts ranging from approximately $25,000 to
$950,000, including interest at 10% per annum, plus payments for the basic rent
of aircraft. Maintenance payments were also to be payable weekly, but in the
same aggregate amounts as set forth in the original terms of the Aircraft Lease
Agreement. Thereafter, commencing January 4, 1996, the Company would be
required to pay, weekly in advance, the basic rent payments owed for the
aircraft and maintenance payments in respect of the aircraft.

The Company paid to American the first five weekly payments of
deferred amounts due under the April amendment to the Aircraft Lease Agreement,
in an aggregate amount of approximately $4.2 million, leaving a balance due of
$6.9 million. However, the Company failed to make deferred and basic rent
payments to American of $600,000 and $986,000, respectively, commencing May 8,
1995.

The Company and American have subsequently deferred the due date
for the repayment of the remaining $6.9 million of deferred lease rents and
maintenance payments on five occasions. Amendment No. 3 dated June 1, 1995
deferred the due date until August 22, 1995. Amendment No. 4 dated August
22, 1995 deferred the due date until October 6, 1995. Amendment No. 5 dated
October 6, 1995 deferred the due date until November 20, 1995. Amendment No.
6 dated November 20, 1995 deferred the due date until December 9, 1995. As of
December 9, 1995, the amount of interest accrued on the deferred $6.9 million
brought the total amount due to approximately $7.1 million.

Amendment No. 7 dated December 8, 1995 (the "December Amendment")
permits the deferral of the payment of this $7.1 million (plus interest
thereon) and the periodic payments of lease rents and maintenance payments
that become due on or after December 8, 1995 up to a maximum of an additional
$2.9 million (including interest thereon) until the earlier of the
consummation of the Proposed 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. The Company is
currently required to pay, weekly in advance, basic rent payments and
maintenance payments due on and after January 5, 1996.

The failure of the Company to timely make payment in full of $10
million (assuming full utilization of the additional deferral permitted by the
December Amendment) due on or before February 7, 1996 would permit American to
exercise 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 the $2 million of letters of
credit provided by the Company with respect to the Aircraft Lease Agreement.

In connection with the Proposed Investment, the Company has entered
into certain arrangements with American pursuant to which, upon consummation of
the Proposed Investment and satisfaction of certain other conditions, American
would accept the payment of up to $10 million of deferred lease rents and
maintenance payments through the issuance by

<PAGE>

the Company to American of a promissory note secured by certain assets of the
Company. See "Description of Arrangements with American" below. If the
Proposed Investment is not consummated, the ability of the Company to satisfy
its obligations with respect to making the payment due to American by February
7, 1996 will depend on the Company's ability to obtain additional financing. If
American were to repossess its aircraft, the Company's ability to conduct
continuing operations would be seriously jeopardized.

PROCEEDINGS WITH POTENTIAL INVESTORS

As it became apparent to management in December 1994 that the Company
did not have adequate cash resources to meet operating needs through the first
quarter of 1995, the Company began to explore the possibility of raising capital
through the issuance of additional equity or debt securities. Pursuant to an
engagement letter dated January 31, 1995, the Company retained Jefferies &
Company, Inc. ("Jefferies") to act as the exclusive financial advisor and sole
placement agent to the Company in connection with the structuring, issuance and
sale of up to $40 million of debt and/or equity securities. For several months,
Jefferies worked with the Company's management to negotiate a nonbinding
indication of terms for American's participation in the Company's strategic plan
and to prepare a confidential private placement memorandum to be provided to
potential investors (the "Memorandum").

Jefferies and members of senior management expended a great amount of
time and effort identifying more than 90 potential investors. In September and
October 1995 the Memorandum was distributed to over 60 potential investors who
had expressed an interest in receiving it. Company representatives were
available to discuss with any prospective investor, upon request made through
Jefferies, the information contained in the Memorandum and investors were given
the opportunity to visit the Company's facilities and to discuss its affairs
with appropriate Company personnel.

Jefferies and the Company provided further information to and
conducted more than 20 in-person meetings with 15 qualified investors. Eleven
investors completed secondary rounds of due diligence. Two of the most serious
investors conducted physical due diligence of the Company's operations in Hawaii
and met with representatives of American and other entities or groups of
importance to the Company. One of these investors met with certain individual
members of the Board of Directors. Throughout the process Jefferies and members
of senior management kept the Board of Directors apprised on an ongoing basis of
developments in the search for potential investors. In late October 1995, AIP
requested the opportunity to make a proposal to the Company. No other investor
has come forward with a formal offer.

NEGOTIATIONS WITH AIP

At the November 2, 1995 meeting of the Board of Directors, the
directors discussed AIP's request to present an offer to the Company. The
meeting was attended in person or by telephone by all of the Company's directors
except for Todd G. Cole and Samuel Woodward. Also in attendance were
representatives from the Company's outside legal counsel and representatives of
Jefferies.

Jefferies presented the Board of Directors with an extensive summary
regarding the investors who had requested and received the Memorandum, those
with whom Jefferies and the Company had further meetings, and the overall
interest of all potential investors. Jefferies explained that AIP emerged from
the process as the potential investor with the greatest interest, the ability to
act swiftly and the greatest apparent likelihood of

<PAGE>

consummating a transaction. The Board of Directors acknowledged the Company's
urgent need to obtain an additional infusion of capital and that time was of the
essence. After the Jefferies presentation, the Board of Directors authorized a
committee of four directors, Clifton Kagawa, Bruce R. Nobles (the sole
non-voting member), David Urrea and Samuel Woodward (the "Negotiating
Committee") to immediately undertake, with the participation and assistance of
Jefferies, the negotiation with AIP of the terms and conditions of a purchase by
AIP of up to $40 million of newly issued capital stock of the Company, subject
to approval by the full Board of Directors.

On November 3, 1995, the Negotiating Committee, Jefferies and the
Company's outside legal counsel met with representatives of AIP and reviewed
AIP's proposal for an investment in the Company. The Negotiating Committee
considered the proposal internally, and determined to invite AIP to engage in
further negotiations. Later that day the Negotiating Committee and the
Company's advisors met with AIP's representatives and continued the negotiations
regarding the proposed terms of a transaction. During these discussions (which
continued into the evening, resumed the following morning and were concluded
that afternoon), a number of modifications to the proposed terms were made at
the request of the Company and its advisors. These included the establishment
of a ceiling on the expenses to be borne by the Company, a liberalization of the
Company's ability to respond to competitive offers, a reduction in the
termination fee payable by the Company in certain circumstances, and AIP's
agreement to the making of the Rights Offering.

NOVEMBER 6, 1995 BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING

On November 6, 1995, the Board of Directors reconvened with all of the
directors attending the meeting in person or by telephone. Also in attendance
were representatives from Jefferies and the Company's outside legal counsel.
The Board of Directors discussed the Company's current financial situation,
including the critical need for cash and the status of deferred payments due to
American. The Board had previously been provided with a draft of the proposed
letter of intent setting out the principal terms of the transaction with AIP as
negotiated by the Negotiating Committee and AIP. The Board then discussed in
detail the terms of the proposed transaction and received advice from the
Company's legal and financial advisors.

Legal counsel advised the Board of Directors as to its legal and
fiduciary responsibilities in considering the proposed transaction. It was
pointed out that no other offers had been forthcoming despite vigorous marketing
efforts and that, without an infusion of capital within the next few months, the
Company's ability to continue operations would be seriously jeopardized.

The terms of the proposed letter of intent were outlined for the
directors, and Jefferies made a detailed presentation of key financial and
market information, as well as a pro forma financial analysis of the Company
giving effect to the proposed transaction. Jefferies also outlined the
advantages and key considerations with respect to the AIP proposal from a
financial point of view, including the positive effect of the proposed
investment and a subsequent rights offering to shareholders (which was provided
for in the AIP proposal) on the Company's balance sheet and the potential
benefits to existing shareholders as a result of such investment and rights
offering. The directors thoroughly considered and reviewed the proposed
transaction and asked numerous questions of the Jefferies representatives and
outside legal counsel. In addition, a representative from AIP joined a portion
of the meeting and responded to questions from the Board of Directors.

<PAGE>

The Board of Directors concluded that it was unlikely that any
alternatives would provide the perceived benefits of the proposed transaction
with AIP or be successful on an expedited basis on terms as favorable to the
Company as the proposed transaction with AIP. After much discussion, the
directors unanimously approved executing the letter of intent with AIP and
instructed that definitive documentation be prepared, subject to review and
approval by the full Board of Directors.

Following the November 6 meeting, minor revisions were made to the
proposed form of letter of intent and the definitive letter of intent setting
forth the principal terms of the Proposed Investment (the "Letter of Intent")
was executed and delivered. Later that day the Company publicly announced the
terms of the Proposed Investment.

NEGOTIATION OF INVESTMENT AGREEMENT AND NEGOTIATIONS WITH AMERICAN AND
PRINCIPAL LABOR UNIONS

Between November 7 and December 8, 1995, the parties negotiated the
terms of the Investment Agreement and the other documents contemplated thereby,
setting out in definitive form the terms contained in the Letter of Intent. See
"Description of Investment Agreement" below.

On December 4, 1995, the Company received a letter from a foreign
entity expressing an interest in making an investment in the Company. On
December 6, 1995, persons purporting to represent a group of investors that
included such entity and an organization known as Unity House met with the
Company's outside legal counsel. Legal counsel explained that the Letter of
Intent prohibited the Company from negotiating with, or providing information
to any third party unless the third party entered into a confidentiality
agreement and satisfied certain other conditions set forth in the Letter of
Intent (which conditions were subsequently included in the Investment
Agreement, see "Description of Investment Agreement-Non-Solicitation
Provision" below). The Company's outside counsel informed the
representatives of the timetable for the Proposed Investment and later that
day provided the representatives with the required form of confidentiality
agreement. The Company has received no further contact from this group and
at this time has no basis to believe that the group could consummate a
transaction on terms more favorable to the Company than those of the Proposed
Investment.

The Letter of Intent provided that it was a condition to the execution
of the Investment Agreement that the Company enter into certain arrangements
with American and the Company's four principal labor unions. The arrangements
with the labor unions are necessary to bring the Company's cash flow
requirements in line with certain assumptions contained in the Memorandum.

Concurrently with the November negotiations between the Company and
AIP, representatives of the Company, AIP and Jefferies met with representatives
of American and worked out the principal terms of the arrangements with
American, including the December Amendment. See "Description of Arrangements
with American" below.

Following the execution of the Letter of Intent, the Company commenced
a series of negotiations with representatives of each of its four principal
labor unions, the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers
(AFL-CIO) ("IAM"), the Air Line Pilots Association International ("ALPA"), the
Association of Flight Attendants ("AFA") and the Transport Workers Union
("TWU"), for the purpose of obtaining certain modifications to the collective
bargaining agreements between the Company and each of the unions. These
modifications are conditions to the obligation of AIP to consummate

<PAGE>

the Proposed Investment. As of December 7, the Company had reached tentative
agreements with IAM, ALPA, AFA and TWU, which agreements are subject to union
membership ratification (which is being sought in mid-January) and
consummation of the Proposed Investment. See "Description of Arrangements
with Principal Labor Unions" below.

APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT AGREEMENT

On December 7, 1995, the Board of Directors met to review and consider
the Investment Agreement and the related documents setting out the terms of the
Potential Investment. A draft of the Investment Agreement, in substantially
final form, was provided to Board members in advance of the meeting.

Jefferies reviewed the terms of the Proposed Investment and the
arrangements with American and explained their effect on the Company's
capitalization, as well as the dilutive effect of the Proposed Investment on
the current shareholders. An analysis of comparable publicly-traded
companies and recent public equity offerings was presented and Jefferies
explained its analysis of the fairness of the consideration to be paid by
AIP. Jefferies then delivered its written opinion that as of that date and
subject to certain considerations and assumptions, the consideration to be
paid by AIP in the Proposed Investment was fair, from a financial point of
view, to the current common shareholders of the Company.

The Board of Directors then unanimously approved the Investment
Agreement and the Proposed Investment. The directors also unanimously
approved the Proposed Charter Amendments, the director nominees, and the
substance of the amendments to the Bylaws required by the Investment
Agreement. The officers of the Company were instructed to submit the
Investment Agreement to the Company's shareholders for their consideration
and approval at the Special Meeting. On December 8, 1995, the Investment
Agreement was executed and delivered by the Company and AIP. Later that day,
the Company publicly announced the entering into of the Investment Agreement.

RELATIONS WITH THE STATE OF HAWAII

The Company leases its airport facilities in Hawaii from the State
of Hawaii and also pays the State a monthly fee based on the number of
landings by the Company at airports in Hawaii. The Company is not current in
its payments of lease rents and landing fees and has received a notice from
the State of Hawaii that if the past-due amounts are not paid, the Company's
leases and airport permits will be terminated. The Company intends to use a
portion of the proceeds from the Proposed Investment to pay all past-due
amounts to the State. If the Proposed Investment is not consummated, the
Company will not have sufficient cash to pay the past due amounts. If the
State of Hawaii terminates the leases and permits, the Company would have to
cease operations.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDATIONS

The Board of Directors has unanimously approved the Proposed
Investment and believes that the Proposed Investment is in the best interests of
the Company and its shareholders. The Board of Directors, in recommending
shareholder approval of the Proposed Investment, considered a number of factors,
including, without limitation, the following:

(a) the likelihood that, without the Proposed Investment, the Company
will be unable to obtain from American a forbearance or permanent waiver of the
existing defaults under the Aircraft Lease Agreement on a timely basis and on
terms satisfactory to the Company;

(b) the current liquidity crisis of the Company, which, if not
remedied, would materially impair the Company's ability to continue its
operations and could make it necessary for the Company to seek protection from
its creditors under federal bankruptcy laws;

<PAGE>

(c) the recent market prices and trading information with respect to
the Class A Common Stock and the decline in the price of the Class A Common
Stock to the detriment of the shareholders that is likely to occur if the
Proposed Investment is not consummated;

(d) the substantial increase in the Company's working capital that
should result from the Proposed Investment and the arrangements with American,
and the substantial reduction in cash operating expenses that should result from
the arrangements with the Company's principal labor unions, and the prospect
that, as a result of these, the Company should be able to make certain high
return capital expenditures, take advantage of prompt payment discounts, avoid
the need to provide early payment incentives to wholesalers and become less
dependent on short-term bank debt and promotional sales to the traveling public
to finance its operations;

(e) the benefit the Company expects to receive from the addition to
the Board of Directors of the directors designated by AIP;

(f) the existing assets, operations, earnings and prospects of the
Company in light of the economic climate, the seasonal downturn typically
experienced by the Company in the first quarter of the year and the Company's
net working capital deficit;

(g) the terms of the Proposed Investment and the terms of the
arrangements with American and the principal labor unions;

(h) the potential benefits to existing shareholders as a result of
the proposed Rights Offering;

(i) the dilutive effect of the Proposed Investment on the existing
shareholders of the Company;

(j) AIP's ability to control of the Company through its director
nominees and its Class A Common Stock ownership and the effect that such
control would have on a third party's ability to acquire the Company in the
future;

(k) the tax effects of the Proposed Investment on the Company and
its current shareholders; and

(l) the opinion of Jefferies that the consideration to be paid by AIP
in the Proposed Investment is fair, from a financial point of view, to the
current common shareholders of the Company. See "Opinion of Financial Advisor"
below.

In view of the variety of factors considered by the Board of
Directors in connection with its evaluation of the Proposed Investment, the
Board of Directors did not find it practicable to, and did not, quantify or
otherwise assign relative weights to the individual factors considered in
reaching its determination and recommendation set forth above. In reaching
its determination and recommendation, the Board of Directors determined that
any adverse effect that the Proposed Investment would have on the existing
shareholders would be acceptable in light of the benefits that the Proposed
Investment would provide to such shareholders. The adverse effects considered
by the Board of Directors were the dilution to existing shareholders, the
change in control of the Company, the diminished ability to sell the Company
and certain tax consequences. See "Effect on Existing Shareholders" below.

OPINION OF FINANCIAL ADVISOR

On December 7, 1995, Jefferies delivered to the Board of Directors its
written opinion to the effect that, as of such date and subject to certain
considerations and assumptions, the consideration to be paid by AIP in the
Proposed Investment is fair, from a financial point of view, to the current
common shareholders of the Company.

In conducting its analysis and arriving at its opinion, Jefferies
considered such financial and other factors as it deemed appropriate under the
circumstances, including, among others: (i) the terms and financial aspects of
the Proposed Investment; (ii) the Company's need for capital and available
alternatives for raising capital; (iii) the historical and current markets for
the Company's common stock and for securities of certain companies believed by
Jefferies to be comparable to the Company; (iv) public equity issuances of
certain other airline companies and the current environment for public equity
issuances; (v) the use of proceeds and the financial impact of the Proposed
Investment on the holders of the Company's stock; (vi) certain of the Company's
operating and financial information,

<PAGE>

including projections, analyses and estimates provided by management relating to
the Company's business and prospects; (vii) publicly available financial data
and stock market performance data of other public companies which Jefferies
deemed generally comparable to the Company; (viii) a draft of the Investment
Agreement and related exhibits and schedules, all in substantially final form;
and (ix) the Company's Annual Reports to Shareholders and Annual Reports on Form
10-K for the fiscal years ended on December 31, 1992 through December 31, 1994,
and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 1995.
Jefferies also discussed with representatives of management of the Company the
business, properties and prospects of the Company and undertook other reviews,
analyses and inquiries relating to the Company.

THE FULL TEXT OF THE WRITTEN OPINION OF JEFFERIES, DATED DECEMBER 7,
1995, WHICH SETS FORTH THE ASSUMPTIONS MADE, MATTERS CONSIDERED AND LIMITATIONS
ON THE REVIEW UNDERTAKEN, IS ATTACHED AS ANNEX II TO THIS PROXY STATEMENT.
THE COMPANY'S SHAREHOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ THIS OPINION CAREFULLY IN ITS
ENTIRETY. JEFFERIES' OPINION WAS DIRECTED ONLY TO THE FAIRNESS, FROM A
FINANCIAL POINT OF VIEW, TO THE CURRENT COMMON SHAREHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY OF
THE CONSIDERATION TO BE PAID BY AIP IN THE PROPOSED INVESTMENT AND WAS PROVIDED
SOLELY FOR THE USE OF THE COMPANY'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS IN ITS EVALUATION OF THE
PROPOSED INVESTMENT, DOES NOT ADDRESS ANY OTHER ASPECT OF THE PROPOSED
INVESTMENT AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A RECOMMENDATION TO ANY OF THE COMPANY'S
SHAREHOLDERS AS TO HOW SUCH SHAREHOLDER SHOULD VOTE AT THE SPECIAL MEETING. IN
ADDITION, JEFFERIES EXPRESSED NO OPINION AS TO THE FAIRNESS OR CONSEQUENCES OF
THE RIGHTS OFFERING OR OF THE BRIDGE LOAN FACILITY. JEFFERIES' OPINION WAS
RENDERED AS OF DECEMBER 7, 1995 AND DOES NOT CONSIDER SUBSEQUENT EVENTS THAT
MAY CHANGE THE OPINION.

In Jefferies' review and analysis and in rendering its opinion,
Jefferies relied upon, and did not independently verify, the accuracy,
completeness and fair presentation of all financial and other information
(including financial projections and estimates) that were provided to or
otherwise discussed with it, or which were publicly available, and its opinion
is conditioned upon such information (whether written or oral) being complete,
accurate and fair in all material respects. With respect to the projected
financial information and estimates provided to or discussed with it, Jefferies
assumed without independent verification that such information was reasonably
prepared on bases reasonably reflecting management's best currently available
estimates and good faith judgments as to the future performance of the Company
and that the Company will perform in accordance with such projections for all
periods specified therein. Jefferies also assumed that all consents,
authorizations and agreements of other parties necessary to consummate the
Proposed Investment had been, or will be, obtained without material expense.
Jefferies did not make an independent evaluation or appraisal of the assets or
liabilities (contingent or otherwise) of the Company or conduct a physical
inspection of any of the assets of the Company, nor was Jefferies furnished with
any such appraisals. Jefferies' opinion is necessarily based on economic,
monetary, political, market, and other conditions that existed and could be
evaluated as of the date of the opinion and on information available to
Jefferies as of that date. Such conditions are subject to rapid and
unpredictable change.

In arriving at its opinion, Jefferies employed several analytical
methodologies, no one of which was regarded as critical to its overall
conclusion. The conclusions it reached were based on all the analyses and
factors considered as a whole and also on application of its own experience and
judgment. Such conclusions involved significant elements of subjective judgment
and qualitative analysis.

<PAGE>

In regard to the business and financial aspects of the Proposed
Investment, Jefferies considered the Company's critical need for cash to
continue as a going concern, and the likelihood that the Company could not
quickly complete bank financing, or access public debt or equity capital
markets, in a sufficient amount and on reasonable terms given its financial
position. With regard to the financial impact of the Proposed Investment on the
Company's shareholders, Jefferies considered the benefits to the Company's
current stockholders of the proposed Rights Offering. Jefferies also considered
the role of the Proposed Investment in facilitating the restructuring of the
Company's agreements with American and with certain labor unions. In addition,
Jefferies considered certain operating and financial information relating to the
Company and to certain companies deemed by Jefferies to be comparable to the
Company.

By letter dated January 31, 1995 (the "January Letter"), the
Company formally retained Jefferies as its exclusive financial advisor and
sole placement agent in connection with the structuring, issuance and sale of
up to $40,000,000 of debt and/or equity securities and, on November 21, 1995,
the Company formally retained Jefferies to render the fairness opinion. The
Company has paid Jefferies a fee of $150,000 in connection with the rendering
of the fairness opinion and has agreed to pay Jefferies, upon consummation of
the Proposed Investment, a cash fee equal to 5.0% of the gross proceeds
received by the Company from such investment. The Company also agreed to
reimburse Jefferies for its out-of-pocket expenses incurred in performing
its services, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, and to
indemnify Jefferies and related persons against certain liabilities,
including liabilities under federal securities laws, arising out of
Jefferies' engagement.

Jefferies has also advised the Company that it is entitled, under
the terms of the January Letter, to an a fee (not to exceed $1 million) equal
to 5% of the gross proceeds from the Rights Offering. AIP has advised the
Company that AIP disagrees that Jefferies is entitled to a fee with respect
to the Rights Offering, whether pursuant to the January Letter or otherwise.
The Company believes that the January Letter, as it ultimately may be
definitively interpreted based on the relevant facts and circumstances,
should control. The dispute has not yet been resolved.

Jefferies has advised the Company that, in the ordinary course of
business, it may actively trade the securities of the Company for its own
account or for the account of its customers and, accordingly, may at any time
hold a long or short position in such securities.

Jefferies is a nationally recognized investment banking firm and was
selected by the Company based on Jefferies' experience and expertise.
Jefferies, as part of its investment banking services, is regularly engaged in
the evaluation of capital structures and the rendering of advice in financial
restructurings and recapitalizations. In addition, Jefferies performs valuations
of businesses and their securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions,
negotiated underwritings, competitive biddings, secondary distributions of
listed and unlisted securities, private placements, financial restructurings and
other financial services. Prior to the present engagement, the Company had not
previously engaged Jefferies to render any financial advisory services.

The Company's engagement of Jefferies was approved by the Board of
Directors on the recommendation of its Executive Committee, which committee
consisted of Messrs. Bruce Nobles, Martin Anderson, Clifton Kagawa, Einar
Olafsson and Richard Humphreys.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Of the $20 million proceeds from the Proposed Investment, a portion
would be used to pay (i) fees and expenses associated with the transactions
estimated to be $2.5 million, (ii) accrued landing fees for the Company's
Hawaii operations and accrued rent on the Company's facilities in Hawaii
estimated to be between $2.4 million and $3.2 million as of January 31, 1996,
and (iii) deferred director compensation of approximately $300,000. Although
the Company has not designated specific uses for the balance of the proceeds
from the Proposed Investment, it is anticipated that such proceeds will be
used to provide permanent working capital.

POSSIBLE BRIDGE LOAN

The Company and AIP are currently in discussion regarding the
possibility of AIP providing the Bridge Loan Facility. As currently
proposed, the Bridge Loan Facility would permit the Company to borrow, with
AIP's consent, up to $3 million to pay operating expenses during the period
prior to the earlier of the closing of the Proposed Investment and termination
of the Investment Agreement. Without AIP's consent, no borrowings could be made
under the Bridge Loan Facility until (i) the Company's principal unions ratify
the modification to their respective collective bargaining agreements described
under "Description of Arrangements with Principal Labor Unions" below and
(ii) the funds made available through additional rent deferrable under the
December Amendment shall have been utilized for operating expenses.

<PAGE>

Borrowings under the Bridge Loan Facility would be
evidenced by the Bridge Loan Note. The Bridge Loan Note would be due on the
earlier of the closing of the Proposed Investment and February 10, 1996, bear
interest at 10% per annum, and be secured by certain assets of the Company.
The Bridge Loan Note would be convertible at any time, and from time to time,
at the option of the holder into shares of Class A Common Stock of the
Company at $1.10 per share. The maximum number of shares issuable on
conversion of the Bridge Loan Note would be limited to the maximum number of
shares that could be acquired by AIP without shareholder approval under the
rules of the American Stock Exchange, unless such rules are waived by the
American Stock Exchange (which waiver the Company would agree to use its best
efforts to obtain).

If the Proposed Investment is not consummated, (i) AIP would have
the right to participate, to the extent of any shares of Class A Common Stock
issued on conversion of the Bridge Loan Note, in any public offering of the
Company's securities registered under the Securities Act within ten years of
such conversion and (ii) AIP would be entitled to liquidated damages on the
maturity date of the Bridge Loan Note for each $1.10 of the Bridge Loan Note
that could not be converted as a result of the Company's failure to obtain
the waiver of the American Stock Exchange rules described above. The damages
for each $1.10 of the Bridge Loan Note that could not be converted would be
equal to the amount by which the average market price of one share of Class A
Common Stock during a designated period prior to the maturity date of the
Bridge Loan Note exceeds $1.10.

If the Proposed Investment is consummated, the Bridge Loan Note, to
the extent then outstanding, would automatically be converted into shares of
Class A Common Stock at $1.10 per share and such shares, plus any shares of
Class A Common Stock previously issued on conversion of the Bridge Loan Note,
would be part of the 18,181,818 Shares issued in the Proposed Investment and
the $20 million purchase price for the Shares would be reduced accordingly.

The terms of the Bridge Loan Facility are still being finalized and
no assurance can be given that the Bridge Loan Facility will become available
to the Company. If the Bridge Loan Facility does not become available, the
Company expects that it will exhaust its cash resources prior to the date of
the Special Meeting. If this were to happen, the Company may have to seek
protection from its creditors under federal bankruptcy laws and halt
operations.

RIGHTS OFFERING

The Investment Agreement requires AIP to use its best efforts to
cause the Company, as soon as practicable after the consummation of the
Proposed Investment, to make the Rights Offering, pursuant to which the
Company would offer Rights to such persons as the Board of Directors shall
determine at the time of the Rights Offering (which would not include AIP
(except possibly with respect to Rights not exercised during the allotted
time) but would include, among others, shareholders as of the Record Date who
continue to hold shares until the Rights Offering and holders of options
granted under the 1994 Stock Option Plan). Each Right would entitle the
holder thereof, during the 20 days following the issuance of the Rights, to
acquire one share of Class A Common Stock at a discount equal to at least 30%
of the trading price of the Class A Common Stock measured over a period of
time to be designated by the Board of Directors following consummation of the
Proposed Investment and prior to the Rights Offering, subject to a minimum
exercise price of $1.10 per Right. Rights not exercised during the 20-day
period 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 SEC.

EFFECT ON EXISTING SHAREHOLDERS

While the Board of Directors is of the opinion that the Proposed
Investment is fair to, and in the best interests of, the shareholders of the
Company, shareholders should consider the following possible effects in
evaluating the Investment Proposal.

DILUTION

As of the Record Date, there were 8,740,060 shares of Common Stock
issued and outstanding, with an additional 636,247 shares issuable pursuant to
the Plan of Reorganization and 1,589,011 shares issuable pursuant to the
Existing Warrants and the Company's 1994 Stock Option Plan, totaling 10,965,318
shares on a fully diluted basis. If the Proposed Investment were to be
consummated and the AMR Warrants were to be exercised, the total number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding on a fully diluted basis (after giving effect
to the issuance of additional shares pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions
of the Existing Warrants (which anti-dilution provisions would be
triggered by the issuance of the Shares to AIP) (see "Amendments to Other
Agreements-Existing Warrants" below)) is estimated to be 31,775,000 shares),
resulting in an approximate 65% decrease in an existing shareholder's equity
interest in the Company as of the Record Date on a fully diluted basis.

The Rights Offering is intended to create the potential for increased
returns to existing shareholders and to offer a shareholder partial protection
against this dilution.

24
<PAGE>

CONTROL OF THE COMPANY

Immediately after the consummation of the Proposed Investment, AIP
would own approximately 73% of the outstanding voting power of the Company
based on voting shares outstanding on December 18, 1995. As a result, AIP
would be able to control all actions to be taken by the shareholders of the
Company. After giving effect to the issuance of the balance of shares of
Class A Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan of Reorganization,
the issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock upon the exercise of the Rights
(assuming that none of the Rights are exercised by AIP), the Existing Warrants,
the AMR Warrants and options granted under the Company's 1994 Stock Option
Plan, and the conversion of all outstanding shares of the Class B Common Stock
into shares of Class A Common Stock, AIP would own approximately 44% of the
outstanding voting power the Company. However, even at such time as sufficient
shares of Class A Common Stock have been issued to cause AIP to hold less than
50% of the aggregate voting power, its voting power would still be
substantially greater than that of any existing shareholder.

Pursuant to the amendments to the Bylaws required by the Investment
Agreement, AIP would have, until such time as AIP ceases to own at least 35% of
the common equity, the right to nominate six of the 11 nominees to stand from
time to time for election as directors of the Company. AIP has designated six
of the director nominees being submitted to the shareholders for election at
the Special Meeting. If AIP's common equity percentage were to go below 35%,
its right to nominate directors would be reduced as follows: five of the 11
directors if the percentage were at least 25% but less than 35%; four of the 11
directors if the percentage were at least 10% but less than 25%; three of the
11 directors if the percentage were at least 5% but less than 10%; and none of
the 11 directors if the percentage were less than 5%. See "Amendments to
Bylaws and Description of Special Preferred Stock" below.

In addition to the right of AIP to nominate nominees for election as
members of the Board of Directors, three of the Company's labor unions (ALPA,
IAM and AFA) have the right pursuant to their collective bargaining agreements
to nominate three of the nominees, thereby leaving the Board of Directors with
the authority to nominate only two of the nominees to stand from time to time
for election as directors of the Company.

DIMINISHED ABILITY TO SELL THE COMPANY

As a result of AIP's substantial ownership interest in the Class A
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.
As of the date of this Proxy Statement, management knows of no specific effort
to accumulate the Company's securities or to obtain control of the Company by
means of a merger, tender offer, solicitation in opposition to management or
otherwise.

CERTAIN TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The Company anticipates that the Proposed Investment, once completed,
will result in, or significantly increase the likelihood of, an "ownership
change" of the Company for purposes of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). If the Company undergoes an ownership
change, the amount of its net operating losses ("NOLs"), as computed for
federal and state income tax purposes, that it can use to offset future taxable
income generally will be limited to an annual amount (the "Section 382

25
<PAGE>

Limitation") equal to the value of the Company's equity immediately before the
ownership change multiplied by the "long-term tax-exempt rate" (currently
5.65%). 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 were
incurred following the ownership change), the Company will have federal taxable
income subject to tax at a maximum rate of 35% (plus any applicable state
taxes).

The Section 382 Limitation may be increased by certain "built-in"
income items recognized following an ownership change. While the Company
believes that any Section 382 Limitation resulting from the Proposed Investment
may be increased substantially as a result of certain of its "built-in" income
items, whether and the extent to which this rule will increase the Company's
Section 382 Limitation in the future currently are uncertain. Unused NOLs
generally expire 15 years after they are incurred.

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 an election in its 1994 income tax return to be subject to the
limitations of Section 382. See "Charter Amendments Proposal--Deletion of
Article XIII." Based on values used by the Company in preparing its 1994
federal income tax return, the Company's Section 382 Limitation, which
generally applies to all NOLs attributable to the period prior to the
ownership change that resulted from the Company's bankruptcy reorganization,
currently is approximately $2.4 million (plus "built-in" income items as
discussed above). Another ownership change of the Company would result in a
reduction in the Company's Section 382 Limitation to the extent that the
value of the Company's equity immediately before that ownership change, as
computed for Section 382 purposes, multiplied by the long-term tax-exempt
rate in effect at the time of that ownership change, plus any available
"built-in" income items, is less than the current Section 382 Limitation.
Any reduction in the Section 382 Limitation could increase the Company's
future tax liabilities. In addition, another ownership change would subject
to the Section 382 Limitation those NOLs of the Company incurred after the
ownership change resulting from its bankruptcy reorganization (currently
estimated to be approximately $12 million), which NOLs are not currently
subject to the Section 382 Limitation.

While the Company anticipates that another ownership change would
further reduce the amount of NOLs available on an annual basis following that
ownership change, the amount of such reduction and its effect on the Company
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 could be to increase the
future tax liabilities of the Company, the precise effect of an ownership
change of the Company resulting from the Proposed Investment is unclear.

DESCRIPTION OF ARRANGEMENTS WITH AMERICAN

AMERICAN NOTE AND RELATED ARRANGEMENTS

American has agreed to the deferral, until the earlier of the
consummation of the Proposed Investment or February 7, 1996, of $10 million in
lease rents and maintenance payments ($8 million of which were due on December
8, 1995 and an additional $2 million of which would accrue after December 8,
1995). See "Background and Reasons for the

<PAGE>

Proposed Investment-American Deferral" above. If the Investment Proposal is
consummated and certain other conditions are satisfied, American has agreed
that the Company may pay the $10 million of deferred lease rents and
maintenance payments by issuing to American a promissory note (the "American
Note") secured by certain assets of the Company.

The American Note would bear interest at 10% per annum, payable
quarterly in arrears, and have a final maturity date of September 11, 2001.
The American Note would require repayment of principal equal to one-sixth of
the original principal amount on each anniversary of its date of issuance. The
Company would have the option to prepay the Note for $8,945,042.08 (plus any
increase in the principal amount of the American Note to effect the
reimbursement by the Company of American's transaction expenses as described
below) at any time within twelve months of the date of issuance, or at any time
thereafter, in whole or in part, at its remaining principal balance, without
premium. The American Note would be 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% of the voting interest in the Company.

The American Note and the other obligations of the Company to
American would be secured by a lien on substantially all of the personal
property of the Company until December 31, 1997. This lien would be a first
priority lien except that it would be junior to (i) liens of security
deposits held by credit card processors and (ii) liens securing up to
$15,000,000 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 November 30, 1995, in addition to its credit card deposits, the Company
had $9.2 million in secured obligations (including all amounts under the
Credit Facility), the liens of which would be prior to the lien of the
American Note. On and after January 1, 1998, the Company would be 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% of the remaining
outstanding principal balance of the American Note from time to time.

In addition, if the Investment Proposal is consummated and
certain other conditions are satisfied, basic rents under the Aircraft Lease
Agreement would be reduced by approximately 28% for a period of three years,
the Company would agree to pay a minimum monthly charge for maintenance
services and basic rents and maintenance charges would be payable monthly in
arrears rather than weekly in advance. American would have the right to
terminate its obligation to provide aircraft maintenance services on and
after January 1, 1999.

If the Proposed Investment is consummated and certain other
conditions are satisfied, American would relinquish $2.0 million of letters of
credit that currently secure the Company's obligations to American under the
Aircraft Lease Agreement. The termination of these letters of credit would
increase the Company's borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility.

The Company has agreed to reimburse American for its reasonable costs
incurred in connection with the arrangements between the Company and American,
not to exceed $250,000. The Company may elect to pay such costs by increasing
the principal amount of the American Note by the amount of such costs.

AMR WARRANTS

If the Proposed Investment is consummated and the arrangements with
American are implemented, the Company would issue to AMR or its affiliate the
AMR Warrants, which would entitle the holder to acquire up to approximately
1,906,000 shares of the Class A

<PAGE>

Common Stock (the "AMR Warrant Shares") at $1.10 per share. The number of
AMR Warrant Shares will be equal to 6% of the shares of Common Stock
outstanding after giving effect to the Proposed Investment, the exercise of
the Existing Warrants (after increasing the number of shares issuable
thereunder pursuant to the anti-dilution provision of the Existing Warrants,
which provision would be triggered by the issuance of the Shares to AIP), the
exercise of all options under the 1994 Stock Option Plan, and the exercise of
the AMR Warrants (but prior to giving effect to the issuance of shares of
Class A Common stock upon exercise of the Rights). One half of the AMR
Warrants would be immediately exercisable but the balance of the AMR Warrants
would only be 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. The AMR Warrants would expire on September 11, 2001.

AMR 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 AMR Warrant Shares under the Securities Act. In addition, AMR would have
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 would be 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.

BENEFITS TO THE COMPANY

The arrangements with American, if consummated, would provide the
Company with substantial benefits. The payment of $10 million of deferred
rents and maintenance payments otherwise due on February 7, 1996 would
instead be made 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 would be reduced by
approximately 28% for three years, resulting in lower operating costs.
Furthermore, the release by American of the security deposit letters of
credit would result in $2 million of borrowing capacity becoming available to
the Company under the Credit Facility.

CONDITIONS PRECEDENT

American's obligation to consummate the arrangements described above
is conditioned on the satisfaction (or waiver by American) of certain
conditions, including the following: (i) consummation of the Proposed
Investment or a comparable transaction; (ii) modification of the Company's
collective bargaining agreements in certain respects; (iii) consummation by the
Company of a plan concerning arrangements with certain of its existing
creditors acceptable to American; (iv) binding arrangements by the Company to
implement yield management and financial reporting systems; and (v) certain
adjustments to the Company's flight schedule that both parties agree would be
profitable. Condition (ii) will be satisfied if the labor unions ratify the
collective bargaining agreement modifications described below.

The AMR Warrants will not be issued and all of the arrangements
described in this "Description of Arrangements with American" section will
terminate if the Proposed Investment is not consummated and the other
conditions described above are not satisfied. In such event, the Company would
be required to pay $10 million to American on February 7, 1996 or face possible
termination of the Aircraft Lease Agreement. See "Background and Reasons for
the Proposed Investment-American Deferral" above.

It is a condition to the Proposed Investment that the December
Amendment be in full force and effect and that the other arrangements between
the Company and American be entered into and be in full force and effect.

28
<PAGE>

DESCRIPTION OF ARRANGEMENTS WITH PRINCIPAL LABOR UNIONS

The Company successfully concluded negotiations with representatives
of each of its four principal labor unions, IAM, ALPA, AFA and TWU, reaching
tentative agreements as of December 8, 1995 regarding modification of each of
the four collective bargaining agreements. The tentative agreements are
subject to ratification by the full membership of each of the four unions and
consummation of the Proposed Investment.

If ratified, the new labor agreements would extend the amendable
date of all four contracts from February 28, 1997 to February 28, 2000. Each
of the four unions tentatively 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. These
concessions would generate significant annual cost savings to the Company,
currently estimated to be an average of at least $5 million per year over the
next four years. In exchange for the wage concessions, the Company has
agreed to negotiate a gain-sharing program, which would 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 four contracts
as modified would 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.

It is a condition to AIP's obligation to consummate the Proposed
Investment and to American's obligation to consummate its arrangements with the
Company that the Company obtain the above-described modifications to the four
collective bargaining agreements.

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. The proposed modifications
to the collective bargaining agreements call for this right to be reflected
in the Bylaws. The modifications also call for AFA, IAM and ALPA to receive
a share of Series C Special Preferred Stock, Series D Special Preferred Stock
and Series E Special Preferred Stock, respectively. See "Amendments to
Bylaws and Description of Special Preferred Stock" below.

AMENDMENTS TO BYLAWS AND DESCRIPTION OF SPECIAL PREFERRED STOCK

BYLAW AMENDMENTS

Pursuant to the Investment Agreement and the modifications to the
collective bargaining agreements with the Company's principal labor unions, the
Bylaws will be amended, effective as of the consummation of the Proposed
Investment, to provide that, of the 11 members of the Board of Directors, one
shall be nominated by each of AFA, IAM and ALPA and six shall be nominated by
AIP. In addition, the Bylaws will provide that one individual is 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 one director
is to be a senior management official of the Company. The Bylaws will provide
that AIP's right to nominate six directors will continue so long as it owns
35% of the outstanding Common Stock on a fully diluted basis and 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 reaquires 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 its stock holdings, such Board members are to be outside
directors.

In order to insure the representation on the Board of Directors
as set forth in the Bylaws, AIP will receive four shares of Series B Special
Preferred Stock, which will entitle AIP to nominate directors as described
above. AFA, IAM and ALPA will each receive one share of Series C Special
Preferred Stock, Series D Special Preferred Stock and Series E Special
Preferred Stock, respectively, which will entitle each union to nominate
directors as described above. The holders of each series of the Special
Preferred Stock will be 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 the labor unions 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.

The Bylaw amendments have been approved by the Board of Directors
and shareholder approval (which is not required) will not be sought.

TERMS OF SPECIAL PREFERRED STOCK

In addition to the rights of the Special Preferred Stock described
above, the terms of the Special Preferred Stock will be as follows:

RANKING AND LIQUIDATION PREFERENCE. With respect to rights on
liquidation, dissolution and winding up, the Series B, Series C, Series D and
Series E Special Preferred Stock will rank senior to the Common Stock and
pari passu with each other. In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the Company, the holder of each share of Special Preferred
Stock 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.

DIVIDENDS. At any time that a dividend is declared and paid on the
Common Stock, a dividend shall be paid on the Special Preferred Stock
in an amount per share equal to twice the dividend per share paid on the
Common Stock. The Special Preferred Stock will have no other dividend
rights.

VOTING RIGHTS. The Special Preferred Stock will vote together with
the Class A Common Stock as a single class with respect to all matters
submitted to the shareholders of the Company, except as otherwise required by
law. Each share of Special Preferred Stock will be entitled to one vote.

CONVERSION INTO COMMON STOCK. Each share of Special Preferred Stock
will automatically convert into one share of Class A Common Stock upon the
transfer of such

<PAGE>

share from the person to whom originally issued to any person that is not an
affiliate of such person.

PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS. The Special Preferred Stock will not have preemptive
rights in connection with future issuances of the Company's capital stock.

AMENDMENTS TO OTHER AGREEMENTS

Certain agreements to which the Company is a party contain provisions
that would be triggered if the Proposed Investment were to be consummated. It
is a condition to AIP's obligations under the Investment Agreement that these
provisions be modified so that they will not be so triggered.

SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN

Under the Rights Agreement dated as of December 23, 1994 between
the Company and Chemical Trust Company of California, as Rights Agent, as
amended (the "Shareholder Rights Plan Agreement"), which sets out the terms
of the Company's shareholder rights plan, AIP's acquisition of the Shares
would render AIP a "10% Shareholder," (as that term is defined in the
Shareholder Rights Plan Agreement), thereby triggering the distribution of
preferred stock purchase rights to the Company's shareholders. Pursuant to
the Shareholder Rights Plan Agreement, 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 preferred stock
purchase rights. The Board has determined that AIP's acquisition of the
Shares shall not render AIP a "10% Shareholder" and has approved an amendment
to the Shareholder Rights Plan Agreement to exclude AIP's acquisition of the
Shares from triggering the distribution of the preferred stock purchase
rights.

STOCK OPTION AGREEMENTS

The options granted under the Company's 1994 Stock Option Plan vest
and are exercisable pursuant to the terms of the 1994 Stock Option Plan 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. The
Proposed Investment would constitute 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 Proposed Investment, the 1994 Stock Option
Plan will be amended to provide that options will vest immediately prior to the
consummation of the Proposed Investment and will thereafter be exercisable
until 2005 notwithstanding the change of control.

EXISTING WARRANTS

The exercise price of, and number of shares issuable pursuant to, the
Existing Warrants are adjustable in certain circumstances if the Company issues
additional securities. These types of provisions are commonly known as "anti-
dilution provisions" and are favorable to the Existing Warrant holders because
the Existing Warrants will retain the value given for such Existing Warrants,
even if the Company issues additional securities. There are specific
exceptions to the anti-dilution provisions contained in the Existing Warrants.
The Board of Directors has approved an amendment to the Existing Warrants to
provide that the issuance of the AMR Warrants, the AMR Warrant Shares, the
Rights and shares of Class A Common Stock upon exercise of the Rights would not
entitle the Existing Warrant holders to the anti-dilution protection. However,
the anti-dilution provisions would be triggered by the issuance

<PAGE>

of the Shares to AIP, thereby entitling the holders of the Existing
Warrants to purchase additional shares of Class A Common Stock without any
increase in the aggregate exercise price as currently provided in the
Existing Warrants. It is a condition to the consummation of the Proposed
Investment that the Existing Warrant holders agree to such amendments.

The number of additional shares of Class A Common Stock issuable
pursuant to the anti-dilution provision of the Existing Warrants will be
calculated based on the average market price of the Class A Common Stock
for the 30 business days commencing 35 business days prior to the date the
Shares are issued to AIP. For illustrative purposes, if such average market
price were the same as the average market price for the 30 business days
commencing 35 business days prior to the date of the Investment Agreement,
the number of additional shares would be 721,442.

ALTERNATIVES TO THE PROPOSED INVESTMENT

In the event that the Proposed Investment is not approved at the
Special Meeting, or is not consummated for any other reason, the Company will
attempt to negotiate a further deferral with American, including a permanent
waiver of the existing defaults. There can be no assurance (and American has
given no indication) that the Company will be successful in any such efforts.
If the Proposed Investment is not consummated, the Company's inability to
obtain a permanent waiver of the existing defaults would materially impair
the Company's ability to continue its operations. If the Proposed Investment
is not consummated and the Company is unable to obtain adequate working
capital immediately, it may be necessary for the Company to seek protection
from its creditors under federal bankruptcy laws and halt operations. The
Company is currently unaware of any alternate source of working capital and
is unaware of any person or entity, other than AIP, who is willing and able
to make a substantial investment in the Company.

REGULATORY FILINGS AND APPROVALS

The Company currently holds licenses from the Federal Communications
Commission (the "FCC") to operate radios from its aircraft and ground
facilities. FCC regulations provide that a licensee must obtain new licenses
following a "change of control" of the licensee. Because the consummation of
the Proposed Investment would constitute a change of control of the Company
under these FCC regulations, the Company and AIP intend to file with the FCC an
application seeking issuance of the required licenses.

The Department of Transportation and the Federal Aviation
Administration issue certificates of Public Convenience and Necessity and Air
Carrier Operating Certificates, respectively, that must be maintained by the
carrier in order to continue operations. Both agencies have continuing
jurisdiction to amend, suspend, revoke or modify the Company's certificates
after opportunity for notice and hearing. Neither agency has prior review
authority to prohibit the Proposed Investment. The Company intends to file
with the Department of Transportation and the Federal Aviation Administration
applications seeking issuance of the required certificates after consummation
of the Proposed Investment.

INFORMATION CONCERNING AIP

AIP is an investment partnership formed to make the Proposed
Investments. AIP is a Delaware limited partnership, the sole general partner
of which is AIP General Partner, Inc., a Delaware corporation. Messrs. John W.
Adams and Richard F. Conway, two of the director nominees designated by AIP,
are the President and Vice President, respectively, of AIP General Partner.
Mr. Adams is also the sole shareholder of AIP General Partner.

AIP has informed the Company that the $20 million to be used to
purchase the Shares to be issued to AIP will come from capital contributions to
AIP from its partners.

<PAGE>

Notes to Pro Forma Financial Statements

(A) Represents AIP's $20 million investment for the purchase of 18,181,818
shares of Class A Common Stock.

(B) Represents estimated fees and expenses of $1.9 million relating to the
Proposed Investment (these fees and expenses represent a portion of the
total estimated transaction costs of $2.5 million, the balance of which
consist of $600,000 of fees and expenses relating to the arrangements
with American and others).

(C) Represents payment to the State of Hawaii of $700,000 of rents and
landing fees upon the consummation of the Proposed Investment.

(D) Represents a discount relating to the increase in the deferred American
liabilities and the extended repayment terms of such liabilities. The
discount has been determined by multiplying (i) the approximate number of
AMR Warrant Shares subject to Warrants that would be immediately
exercisable by (ii) the December 29, 1995 closing price for the Class A
Common Stock on the AMEX ($2.3125) minus the per share exercise price of
the AMR Warrants ($1.10).

(E) Represents the reclassification of $1.7 million of American liabilities
from accounts payable to current portion of long-term debt in accordance
with the terms of the American Note.

(F) Represents the reclassification of $6.2 million of American liabilities
from accounts payable to long-term debt in accordance with the terms of
the American Note.

(G) Represents effect of an estimated $1.0 million decrease in aircraft
lease rent expense relating to aircraft leased from American.

(H) Represents the amortization of the pro forma discount related to
deferred Amercian liabilities and extended repayment terms of such
liabilities (see note (D) above).

(I) Represents the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to be issued to
AIP upon consummation of the Proposed Investment (see note (A) above).

No adjustment has been made to reflect the use of proceeds from the
Proposed Investment to pay (i) approximately $300,000 of deferred directors'
compensation, (ii) between $1.7 million and $2.5 million of rents and landing
fees that accrued subsequent to September 30, 1995 and (iii) $600,000 of fees
and expenses relating to the arrangements with American and others (which
fees and expenses, together with the $1.9 million of fees and expenses
relating to the Proposed Investment, constitute the estimated $2.5 million of
transaction costs that will be paid with a portion of the proceeds from the
Proposed Investment).

No adjustment has been made to reflect $400,000 of nonrecurring
noncash compensation expense due to the change in the exercise rights of the
options under the 1994 Stock Option Plan in connection with the Proposed
Investment. This compensation expense has been computed by multiplying the
number of options (600,000) by the remainder of (x) the December 29, 1995
closing price for the Class A Common Stock on the AMEX ($2.3125) minus (y)
the option exercise price ($1.62).

covenant or agreement by the Company contained in the Investment Agreement, or
the other agreements contemplated by the Investment Agreement.

NON-SOLICITATION PROVISION

Prior to the Closing, neither the Company nor any of its officers,
directors, employees, advisors, representatives or agents, directly or
indirectly, shall take any action to solicit or initiate the submission of any
Acquisition Proposal (as defined below), or, subject to the fiduciary duties of

determination by the Board of Directors after taking into account the advice of
counsel and independent investment advisors (as to financial terms and
availability of financing) with respect thereto, enter into any agreement with
respect to or propose any Acquisition Proposal or participate in any way in
discussions or negotiations with, or furnish any information to, any person

inquiries or the making of any proposal that constitutes, or may reasonably be

offer (including a self tender offer), exchange offer, recapitalization,
liquidation, dissolution or similar transaction involving the Company, any
purchase of, or option to purchase, any equity securities (or securities

any assets of the Company and/or sales of any voting securities or preferred
stock or securities convertible into voting securities or preferred stock by
the Company in one or a series of transactions (whether related or unrelated)
for aggregate consideration (taking into account all such sales of assets
and/or securities) of less than $10,000,000 and (ii) grants and exercises of
options under the 1994 Stock Option Plan).

39
<PAGE>

(e) Election to the Board of Directors of the persons designated by

(g) The Company's compliance in all material respects with its
obligations under the Investment Agreement;

(h) Absence of any event prior to Closing that has had or would be
reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company;

contemplated by the Investment Agreement, shall be in full force and effect;
and

(j) The holders of the Existing Warrants shall have agreed to waive
certain provisions of such Warrants as contemplated by the Investment
Agreement.

TERMINATION

At any time prior to the Closing, the Investment Agreement may be
terminated (a) by the mutual agreement of the parties, (b) by either the
Company or AIP if (i) pursuant to the terms of the Investment Agreement
the Company enters into a definitive agreement (or in the case of AIP, a
letter of intent) with respect to an Acquisition Proposal, (ii) the
shareholders fail to approve the Investment Proposal, or (iii) there is a
judgment, injunction, order or decree enjoining the transactions contemplated
by the Investment Agreement, (c) by AIP if (i) the Board of Directors
withdraws, modifies, changes or does not give its approval or recommendation
of the sale of the Shares to AIP, (ii) there has been a material breach of
any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement by the Company, or (iii)
the Closing does not occur on or before January 31, 1996, or (d) by the
Company if there has been a material breach of any representation, warranty,
covenant or agreement by AIP.

FEES AND EXPENSES OF THE PROPOSED INVESTMENT

If the Investment Agreement is terminated (other than a termination
by the Company due to the breach of AIP ), the Company will pay to AIP a fee of
$250,000 and the Company shall reimburse AIP for all of the Transaction
Expenses (as defined below) up to a maximum of $400,000. "Transaction
Expenses" means the expenses of AIP (whether or not incurred prior to the date
of the Investment Agreement) arising out of, relating to or incidental to the
discussion, evaluation, negotiation, documentation and closing or potential
closing of the transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreement
(including, without limitation, the fees, disbursements and other expenses of
lawyers, accountants, actuaries, investment bankers and any other advisors
thereto) and any filing fees incurred in connection with such transactions;
PROVIDED, that Transaction Expenses shall not include any fees or expenses
payable to investment bankers.

In addition, in the event that prior to November 6, 1996 the Company
consummates any transaction described in the definition of "Acquisition
Proposal" or a series of such transactions, then the Company shall pay to AIP a
termination fee, not to exceed $750,000 equal to (x) 5% of the aggregate
consideration (which shall not include the

<PAGE>

proceeds of loans made to, or debt securities issued by, the Company in
connection with such transaction unless such loans or debt securities are
convertible into or exchangeable for equity securities or are issued together
with equity securities or warrants or similar rights to acquire equity
securities) received by the Company or its shareholders in any such
transaction or series of transactions if such consideration is received on or
prior to May 6, 1996 and (y) 2.5% of the aggregate consideration received by
the Company or its shareholders after May 6, 1996 and on or prior to November 6,
1996. If such termination fee is applicable, AIP may elect to receive all
or a portion of the termination fee in the form of Class A Common Stock
valued at $1.10 per share (subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments) and
the remainder, if any, in cash. If AIP receives any such shares it shall be
entitled to participate in registrations of shares of Class A Common Stock by
the Company.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

The issuance of the Shares to AIP is not being registered under the
Securities Act pursuant to an exemption therefrom and therefore the Shares will
be restricted securities for purposes of the Securities Act. As a condition to
the consummation of the Proposed Investment, the Company will enter into a
registration rights agreement with AIP (the "Registration Rights Agreement"),
pursuant to which AIP, on up to two occasions, will have the right to require
the Company to use its best efforts to register under the Securities Act all or
any portion of the Shares, at the Company's expense and with appropriate
Company indemnification agreements. In addition, if the Company or any other
person, at any time within ten years after the Closing, seeks to register under
the Securities Act for sale to the public any of the Company's securities, AIP
will have the right to participate in such registered offering.

CHARTER AMENDMENTS PROPOSALS

AMENDMENT TO ARTICLE IV

The Board of Directors has unanimously approved and recommends for
shareholder approval a proposed amendment to Article IV of the Articles of
Incorporation providing for an increase in the number of authorized shares of
Class A Common Stock from 40,000,000 shares to 60,000,000 shares.

The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of
40,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, 3,050,000 shares of Class B Common
Stock and 2,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $.01 par value. On December
18, 1995, 6,845,105 shares of the Class A Common Stock and 1,894,955 shares
of the Class B Stock, were issued and outstanding, and the following shares
of Class A Common Stock were reserved for issuance: 636,247 shares under the
Plan of Reorganization; 1,894,955 upon the conversion of shares of Class B
Common Stock (which conversion is anticipated to occur following the
consummation of the Proposed Investment); 989,011 shares pursuant to the
Existing Warrants; and 600,000 shares in connection with the 1994 Stock
Option Plan. After giving effect to the issuance of the Shares to AIP, the
reservation of shares of Class A Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the
AMR Warrants and the reservation of shares of Class A Common Stock for
issuance pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions of the Existing Warrants
(which anti-dilution provisions would be triggered by the issuance of the
Shares), the Company would have approximately 8,225,000 authorized and
unissued shares of Class A Common Stock that are not reserved for future
issuance. Therefore, absent the amendment of Article IV, the Company would
not have sufficient shares of Class A Common Stock available for issuance
upon exercise of the Rights (currently estimated to be approximately
10,000,000). If the First Proposed Charter Amendment is approved, the
Company would have approximately 18,225,000 authorized

<PAGE>

and unissued shares of Class A Common Stock that it could issue from time to
time in the future to raise working capital (assuming the Rights are fully
exercised).

The Class A Common Stock is traded on the AMEX and the Pacific Stock
Exchange. The Board of Directors deems it advisable to amend the Articles of
Incorporation in order to increase the number of authorized shares of Class A
Common Stock. In addition to permitting the exercise of the Rights, the
proposed amendment of Article IV would provide the Company with flexibility in
the future by insuring that the Company would have an adequate number of
authorized and unissued shares available for corporate purposes, such as future
public and private equity offerings. The Board of Directors has adopted a
resolution approving the amendment of the Articles of Incorporation to affect
such an increase, subject to shareholder approval.

The additional shares of Class A Common Stock may generally be used
for any proper corporate purpose approved by the Board of Directors and upon
such terms and for such consideration as they determine without further action
by the shareholders, unless shareholder approval is required by applicable law
or by the rules of the AMEX or Pacific Stock Exchange or such other exchange
upon which the Company's stock is then listed. Except for shares of Class A
Common Stock that have been reserved or are to be reserved in connection with
the Existing Warrants, the 1994 Stock Option Plan, the Plan of Reorganization,
the possible issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to the
Company's shareholder rights plan, the Proposed Investment, 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 except for shares
issuable in payment of the termination fee called for by the Investment
Agreement. See "Investment Proposal-Description of Investment Agreement-Fees
and Expenses of the Proposed Investment."

The issuance of additional shares of Class A Common Stock may have a
dilutive effect on the equity and voting rights of the Company's shareholders.

Paragraph (A) of Article IV of the Articles of Incorporation would be
amended to read as follows:

"A. The corporation is authorized to issue three classes
of shares of capital stock, which shall be designated Class A
Common Stock, Class B Common Stock and Preferred Stock,
respectively. The total number of shares of capital stock which
the corporation is authorized to issue is sixty-five million
fifty thousand (65,050,000) shares."

Paragraph (B)(i) of Article IV of the Articles of Incorporation would
be amended to read as follows:

"B. (i) The total number of shares of Common Stock which
the corporation shall have authority to issue is sixty-three
million fifty thousand (63,050,000) and all such shares shall
have a par value of $.01. The corporation shall be authorized
to issue three million fifty thousand (3,050,000) shares of
Class B Common Stock and sixty million (60,000,000) shares of
Class A Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
corporation shall not be authorized to have more than sixty
million (60,000,000) shares of Common Stock outstanding at any
one time. Upon conversion of shares of Class B

<PAGE>

Common Stock into Class A Common Stock, the shares of
Class B Common Stock acquired by the corporation shall be
canceled and shall not be reissued."

DELETION OF ARTICLE XIII

The Board of Directors has unanimously approved and recommends for
shareholder approval the deletion of Article XIII of the Articles of
Incorporation in its entirety.

Article XIII restricts certain transfers of Common Stock in order to
prevent the occurrence of an "ownership change" of the Company for purposes of
Section 382 of the Code. Article XIII contains certain exceptions to its
restrictions on transfer, including an exception permitting specified large
shareholders of the Company, determined immediately following its bankruptcy
reorganization, to transfer their shares of Common Stock under certain
circumstances (the "5% shareholder exception"). Article XIII also provides
that, following an ownership change, such transfer restrictions cease to be
effective.

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 the Section 382 Limitation following an
ownership change within that two-year period would have been zero.) 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 are subject to the Section 382 Limitation, while NOLs incurred
following that time (the "post-change NOLs") generally are not currently
subject to that limitation. Thus, the benefit of restricting future
ownership changes would arise if the Company's Section 382 Limitation
following any future ownership change would be less than its Section 382
Limitation following any ownership change resulting from or accelerated by
the Proposed Investment, or if the Company were able to utilize the
post-change NOLs (e.g., if its taxable income for a future year exceeds the
Section 382 Limitation for that year). See "Investment Proposal--Effect on
Existing Shareholders--Certain Tax Considerations." The Company believes
that current and anticipated transactions with respect to its equity,
including those pertaining to the consummation of the Proposed Investment,
issuance of the AMR Warrants, consummation of the Rights Offering, and
possible transactions involving the 5% shareholder exception or outstanding
options to acquire equity in the Company, will result in or significantly
increase the likelihood of an ownership change of the Company notwithstanding
the restrictions on transfer in Article XIII. Thus, the Company believes
that the consequences of possible future reductions in its Section 382
Limitation and of limitations on the use of the post-change NOLs, while
potentially significant, do not warrant the restrictions on transferability
of its stock set forth in Article XIII.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE
FOR APPROVAL OF EACH OF THE PROPOSED CHARTER AMENDMENTS.

The Proposed Charter Amendments will be voted on separately. The
affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the shares of
Class A Common Stock is required to approve each Proposed Charter Amendment.

The First Proposed Charter Amendment will also be submitted to the
holders of Class B Common Stock for their approval and will not be adopted
unless it is approved by the required vote of both the holders of the Class A
Common Stock and the holders of the Class B Common Stock, voting as separate
classes.

If the Proposed Charter Amendments are not approved at the Special
Meeting, the Board of Directors would resubmit the Proposed Charter Amendments
for shareholder

<PAGE>

approval following the consummation of the Proposed Investment and AIP has
agreed pursuant to the Investment Agreement to vote in favor of the Proposed
Charter Amendments. At the time of such resubmission, AIP would have
sufficient voting power to approve the Proposed Charter Amendments regardless
of the vote of other holders of Class A Common Stock.

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Eleven directors, five of whom are currently serving as directors of
the Company and the other six of whom have been designated by AIP, are to be
elected at the Special Meeting. The six directors designated by AIP will
replace current directors who will resign upon consummation of the Proposed
Investment. Each director elected at the Special Meeting shall hold office
from the consummation of the Proposed Investment until his or her successor
shall have been elected and shall qualify at the Company's 1996 Annual Meeting
of Shareholders or until he or she shall resign or shall have been removed as
provided in the Bylaws. AIP has advised the Company that it currently has no
reason to believe that any of its nominees will be unable or unwilling to serve
if elected. Management has no reason to believe that any of the incumbent
nominees will be unable or unwilling to serve if elected. If any nominee
should become unavailable prior to the election, the accompanying Proxy Card
will be voted for the election in his or her stead of such other person as the
Board of Directors may recommend.

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of
Class A Common Stock represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote
at the Special Meeting is required to elect a director nominee, provided that
there is a quorum present at the Special Meeting.

Shareholders do not have the right to cumulate their votes in the
election of directors.

the 11 candidates for director. The nominees for election as directors of the

No executive officer or director of the Company bears any
relationship by blood, marriage or adoption to any other executive officer or

INTERESTS OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN MATTERS TO BE VOTED UPON

Two of the nominees standing for election as directors at the
Special meeting, Messrs. Adams and Conway, are executive officers of the
general partner of AIP. In addition, Mr. Adams is the sole stockholder of
the general partner.

Certain of the directors and executive officers of the Company
currently hold unvested options to purchase an aggregate of 592,500 shares of
Class A Common Stock pursuant to the Company's 1994 Stock Option Plan. Under
the present terms of the 1994 Stock Option Plan, the vesting of these options
would be accelerated in connection with the consummation of the Proposed
Investment and any options not exercised immediately prior to the Proposed
Investment would lapse. The 1994 Stock Option Plan will be amended to
provide that such options will continue in effect until 2005. See "Executive
Compensation-Employee Stock Option Plan."

COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(A) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT

Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act"), requires the Company's directors and executive officers, and
persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company's equity
securities, to file with the SEC and the Company initial reports of ownership
and reports of changes in ownership of common stock and other equity securities
of the Company. Based upon the information supplied it by such persons, the
Company is required to report any known failure to file these reports within
the period specified by the instructions to the reporting forms. To the
knowledge of the Company, based upon a review of the Section 16(a) reports
furnished to the Company and the written representations of officers and
directors, all these filing requirements were satisfied by the Company's
directors and executive officers with respect to 1995.

MEETINGS AND COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Board of Directors held 10 meetings in 1995 and all directors
attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board and Committees of which they
were members.

<PAGE>

The Board of Directors has Audit, Compensation and Nominating
Committees, among others. The Audit Committee is comprised of Messrs.
Jeffrey A. Brodsky and Todd G. Cole and Ms. Carol A. Fukunaga. The
Compensation Committee is comprised of Messrs. Martin Anderson, Clifton
Kagawa and Cole. The Nominating Committee is comprised of Messrs. Bruce R.
Nobles, Anderson, Cole, Kagawa and Einar Olafsson. Messrs. Anderson, Brodsky,
Kagawa and Olafsson will cease to be directors upon the consummation of the
Proposed Investment.

The Audit Committee met five times during 1995. The
responsibilities of the Audit Committee include recommending to the Board the
selection of the independent auditors and reviewing the Company's internal
accounting controls. The Audit Committee is authorized to conduct such
reviews and examinations as it deems necessary or desirable with respect to
the Company's accounting and internal control practices and policies, and the
relationship between the Company and its independent auditors, including the
availability of Company records, information and personnel.

The Compensation Committee met four times during 1995. The
Compensation Committee focuses on executive compensation, the administration of
the Company's stock option and stock purchase plans and making decisions on the
granting of discretionary bonuses.

The Nominating Committee met once during 1995. The responsibilities
of the Nominating Committee include recommending to the Board of Directors
candidates for election to directorships at annual meetings of shareholders.
It was undetermined in 1995 whether the Nominating Committee would consider
nominees recommended by security-holders.

* The options have not fully vested and are currently unexercisable. They
were granted to certain key executive officers of the Company on
February 2, 1995 pursuant to the 1994 Stock Option Plan, as amended. See
"Employee Stock Option Plan" below.

(1) Includes a housing allowance of $36,000 in both 1995 and 1994, $20,000 in
1993 and certain Company or HAL, INC. related club and business expenses.

(2) The Company provides various perquisites to its executives which are not
disclosed pursuant to SEC regulations. The value of such perquisites is
less than 10% of the executive's combined salary and bonus.

(3) These salaries represent the actual amounts paid to the Named Executive
Officer as the Named Executive Officer was not employed by the Company for
the entire 1994 calendar year.

<PAGE>

RETIREMENT PLANS

The Company has several retirement plans covering a substantial
number of its employees. The Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. Pension Plan for Salaried
Employees (the "Salaried Plan") covers those directors and officers who are
employees of the Company hired prior to September 1, 1992. Effective
October 1, 1993, the Salaried Plan was frozen. The Salaried Plan continued
after the Effective Date of the Plan of Reorganization, but credited service is
not recognized after September 1993 and the 1994 calendar year compensation is
not taken into account.

Benefits paid under the Salaried Plan are primarily determined by the
number of years the employee participated in the Salaried Plan through October
1, 1993 and the employee's average compensation for the five consecutive
calendar years through 1993 that results in the highest average. For purposes
of the Salaried Plan, compensation includes only base compensation; overtime,
bonuses and other forms of compensation are not included.

The following table shows the annual amounts payable in the form of a
single life annuity commencing at age 65 under the current provisions of the
Salaried Plan, without regard to any survivor options, based on assumed
earnings for various years of participation, as indicated. The benefits shown
in the table are not subject to a deduction for Social Security payments.

150,000(1) $36,000 $48,000 $60,000 $72,000 $84,000
______________

(1) Pursuant to Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code, effective January 1,
1994, no more than $150,000 (as adjusted from time to time by the Internal
Revenue Service) of compensation may be taken into consideration in
calculating benefits payable under the Salaried Plan.

The years of credited service as of October 1, 1993 and the 1995
calendar year compensation covered by the Salaried Plan for Messrs. Forster and
Lyman are 2.58 years and $0 and 7.17 years and $0, respectively. Compensation
earned in the 1995 calendar year is not taken into account when calculating
final average earnings under the Salaried Plan because the Salaried Plan was
frozen as of October 1, 1993. Messrs. Nobles and Davies and Ms. Capps are not
eligible to participate under the Salaried Plan.

<PAGE>

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

For the portion of 1994 prior to the Effective Date, the directors
of the Company received no compensation for their service as directors. From
and after the Effective Date, all outside directors of the Company are
entitled to receive a retainer fee of $12,000 per year, an attendance fee of
$1,250 for each meeting of the Board of Directors, and an attendance fee of
$500 for each committee meeting (collectively, "Directors' Fees"). The
Company provides travel from the mainland to Hawaii for Board of Directors
meetings, as well as one night hotel and ground transportation as needed.
For their service as directors of the Company from the Effective Date through
December 31, 1994, the outside Directors earned a $4,000 retainer fee, except
for Mr. Urrea who, pursuant to his wishes, is only accepting reimbursement
for expenses incurred in attending meetings. For their service as directors
of the Company for fiscal year 1995, the outside directors earned a $12,000
retainer fee, except for Mr. Urrea who, pursuant to his wishes, is only
accepting reimbursement for expenses incurred in attending meetings. Mr.
Nobles does not receive Directors' Fees. In February 1995, the Board of
Directors resolved to defer payment of their Directors' Fees until January
1996. In December 1995, the Board of Directors decided to further defer the
directors' fees earned in 1994 and 1995 until consummation of the Proposed
Investment. Thus, Directors' Fees earned by the directors in 1994 and 1995
have not been paid. See "Investment Proposal -- Use of Proceeds."

EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS, TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT AND
CHANGE-IN-CONTROL ARRANGEMENTS

There are currently no employment contracts between the Company and
any of its executive officers.

EMPLOYEE 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 under such
agreements covering substantially all of the 600,000 reserved shares. The
Compensation Committee established the exercise price of the options granted as
equal to 25% of the average of the closing prices of the Class A Common Stock
as reported on the American Stock Exchange for the ten consecutive days of
trading beginning on June 26, 1995. The initial distribution of the Company's
Class A Common Stock occurred on June 19, 1995. Trading during the succeeding
days was so volatile that the AMEX suspended trading on June 23, 1995. Trading
was resumed on June 26, 1995. The application of the aforementioned formula
resulted in an option exercise price of $1.62 per share. At the 1995 annual
meeting of shareholders, the shareholders ratified the prior approval of the
1994 Stock Option Plan. The Company has since registered these 600,000 shares
of Class A Common Stock with the SEC.

The options vest and are exercisable pursuant to the terms of the
1994 Stock Option Plan 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. The Proposed Investment would constitute 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
Proposed Investment, the 1994 Stock Option Plan will be amended to provide that
options will vest immediately prior to the consummation of the

<PAGE>

Proposed Investment and will thereafter be exercisable until 2005
notwithstanding the change of control.

(1) The options are exercisable pursuant to the terms of the 1994 Stock Option
Plan upon the earlier of February 2, 1995 or upon a change of control.
See "Employee Stock Option Plan" above with respect to the amendment to
the 1994 Stock Option Plan in connection with the Proposed Investment.
The Company may withhold shares to pay the withholding tax or exercise
price.

(2) The Committee administering the Plan (the "Committee"), with the consent
of the optionee, may amend the terms of any Option to provide that the
exercise price of the shares remaining subject to the option shall be
reestablished at an exercise price determined by the Committee at the
date the terms of such options are amended. See "Employee Stock Option
Plan" above for further discussion on the exercise price.

(3) Because no shares of Class A Common Stock had been issued upon the date
of grant, the price used for calculating the potential realizable value
at assumed annual rates of stock price appreciation is $3.64, the
price at which each share was valued on the Effective Date prior to the
distribution of the Class A Common Stock following the Reorganization.
There can be no assurance provided to any executive officer or other
holder of the Company's securities that the actual stock price
appreciation over the 10-year option term will be at the assumed 5% and
10% levels or at any other defined level.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

During 1995, the Compensation Committee consisted of directors
Martin Anderson, Clifton Kagawa and Todd G. Cole.

During 1995, the law firm Goodsill Anderson Quinn & Stifel, of
which Mr. Martin Anderson, a member and chairman of the Compensation
Committee, is a partner, billed legal fees to the Company in the amount of
$102,767. As of December 31, 1995, $9,836 of fees were outstanding. 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 financing. 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 financing 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

<PAGE>

exercisable at a price equal to $2.73 per share, subject to adjustment pursuant
to anti-dilution provisions.

Mr. Anderson served as Vice President of the Company from 1976 to
1980, and Vice President-Legal and Assistant Secretary to the Company from 1980-
1981.

Mr. Clifton Kagawa, a member of the Compensation Committee, 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 $181,457 and collected net revenue of $181,457. 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 Hawaii 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 $2,852,998 and collected net
revenue of $2,852,998.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the
"Committee") was formed in October 1994 after the Company emerged from the
Reorganization in September 1994. The Committee is charged with making salary
recommendations to the full Board of Directors for Company executive officers
at the Vice President level and higher along with recommendations for bonuses,
deferred compensation, stock option plans and director compensation. The
Committee grants awards under and administers the 1994 Stock Option Plan.

In November 1994, the Committee obtained a detailed review of
executive compensation from KPMG Peat Marwick LLP to aid in determining
compensation levels. The information consisted of base salaries and total
compensation paid to Chief Executive Officers and formulations of long-term
incentive plans, bonuses, insurance and stock option plans for executive
officers of the Company's peer group and major airlines. For these purposes,
the Company's peer group consisted of Alaska Air Group, America West,
Atlantic Southeast, Comair Holdings, Mesa Airlines, SkyWest, Inc., Southwest
Airlines and World Airways. Many airlines of the peer group used for
determining executive compensation were also used as the peer group for the
Stock Performance Graph. See "Stock Performance Graph" below.

On December 1, 1994, the Board of Directors approved a salary
increase for the Chief Executive Officer. The Board compared the levels of
chief executive officer compensation from the other airlines with the level
of compensation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer. Because the Company
emerged from the Reorganization late in 1994, the Company's performance in
1994 was not a relevant factor in determining the Chief Executive Officer's
compensation.

Mr. Nobles, the Chief Executive Officer, recommended that the
Board raise the salaries of the other Named Executive Officers based upon
their significant contributions to the Company. The information contained in
the executive compensation review compared revenues to salaries of Chief
Executive Officers. Because the Company's revenues had not been as high as
those of many of the other members of the peer group, the Compensation
Committee and the Board of Directors did not want to set the salaries for the
Named Executive Officers, including the Chief Executive Officer, as high as
those of the comparable officers of such other companies. The Board realized,
however, that there was a possibility that if they did not raise salaries,
certain key executive officers might leave the Company. Because the Board
believed that these certain key executive officers were important to the
Company's daily operation, the Named Executive Officers received raises in
1995, which placed their salaries somewhat closer to those of comparable
officers of their peer group.

The graph below compares cumulative total return of the Company,
the S&P 500 Index and the Company's selected Peer Issuer Index from June 21,
1995, the first day of trading of the Class A Common Stock on the AMEX, to
December 7, 1995. The Peer Issuers the Company selected consist of: Alaska
Airgroup Inc., America West Airlines, Inc., Amtran, Inc., Atlantic Coast
Airlines, Inc., Atlantic Southeast Airlines, Comair Holdings Inc., Great
Lakes Aviation Ltd., Mesa Airlines, Inc., Reno Air Inc., Southwest Airlines
Company and Valujet Airline, Inc. The S&P 500 Index and the Index for the
month of June have been prorated to arrive at the beginning index used in
this graph. The comparison assumes $100 was invested on June 21, 1995 in the
Class A Common Stock and each of the foregoing indices and assumes
reinvestment of dividends before consideration of income taxes.

account and with no intention of distributing or reselling the Shares in any
transaction that would be in violation of the Act or the securities laws of any
state, without prejudice, however, to the rights of the Purchaser at all times
to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Shares under an effective
registration statement under the Act, under an exemption from such registration
available under the Act, and subject, nevertheless, to the disposition of the
Purchaser's property being at all times within its control. The Purchaser
(A) has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial
matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment
in the Shares, (B) fully understands the nature, scope and duration of the
limitations on transfer contained in this Agreement and (C) can bear the
economic risk of an investment in the Shares and can afford a complete loss of
such investment. The Purchaser acknowledges receipt of the SEC Documents, the
Disclosure Letter and all documents delivered in accordance therewith and that
it has been afforded the opportunity to ask such questions as it deemed
necessary of, and to receive answers from,

<PAGE>

representatives of the Company concerning the merits and risks of investing in
the Shares and to obtain such additional information that the Company possesses
or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to
verify the accuracy and completeness of the information contained in the SEC
Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 5.5
shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty made by the
Company.

5.6 OWNERSHIP OF COMMON STOCK. Except as otherwise disclosed in
writing to the Company prior to the execution of this Agreement, the Purchaser
owns beneficially (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act) no
shares of Common Stock.

5.7 HART-SCOTT-RODINO FILING. Neither the annual net sales nor
the total assets of the Purchaser's "ultimate parent entity" as defined in the
Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the "HSR Act"), as such
terms are defined in the coverage rules promulgated under the HSR Act, exceed
$10,000,000.

5.8 AVAILABLE FUNDS. The Purchaser has capital that is
sufficient to purchase the Shares pursuant to this Agreement.

6. COVENANTS OF THE PARTIES.

6.1 SHAREHOLDER MEETING; PROXY MATERIAL; ARTICLES AND BYLAWS
AMENDMENTS. The Company shall cause a meeting of its shareholders to be duly
called and held as soon

<PAGE>

as practicable, subject to the Company's right to adjourn such meeting at any
time or from time to time if in the Board of Directors' good faith judgment such
action is desirable to effectuate the transactions contemplated hereunder, for
the purpose of voting on (A) the approval of the purchase of the Shares by the
Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the election of the Board
of Directors following the Closing (collectively, the "Investment Proposal"),
(B) the increase of the number of shares of Class A Common Stock that the
Company is authorized to issue to 60 million shares and (C) transacting such
other business as may properly come before the meeting or any adjournment
thereof (the "Shareholder Meeting"). The Board of Directors shall recommend
approval and adoption of the Investment Proposal unless the Board of Directors
shall have determined in good faith, based upon advice of outside counsel, that
not taking such actions is necessary for the Board of Directors to comply with
its fiduciary duties under Hawaii law, in which case Sections 9.1(C) and 9.2
shall be applicable. In connection with the Shareholder Meeting, the Company:
(A) shall promptly prepare and file with the SEC in accordance with the Exchange
Act the Proxy Statement, shall use all reasonable efforts to have the Proxy
Statement and/or any amendment or supplement thereto cleared by the SEC and
shall thereafter mail to its shareholders as promptly as practicable the Proxy
Statement; (B) shall use all reasonable efforts to obtain the necessary

<PAGE>

approvals by its shareholders of the Investment Proposal (unless the Board of
Directors shall have determined in good faith, based upon advice of outside
counsel, that not taking such actions is necessary for the Board of Directors to
comply with its fiduciary duties under Hawaii law, in which case Sections 9.1
and 9.2 shall be applicable); and (C) shall otherwise comply with all legal
requirements applicable to such meeting. The Company shall make available to
the Purchaser prior to the filing thereof with the SEC copies of the preliminary
Proxy Statement and any amendments or supplements thereto and shall make any
changes therein reasonably requested by the Purchaser insofar as such changes
relate to any matters relating to the Purchaser or the description of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

6.2 PRE-CLOSING ACTIVITIES. From and after the date of this
Agreement until the Closing, each of the Company and the Purchaser shall act
with good faith towards, and shall use its reasonable efforts to consummate, the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and neither the Company nor the
Purchaser will take any action that would prohibit or impair its ability to
consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, subject to the
fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors under Hawaii law, in which case
Sections 9.1 and 9.2 shall be applicable. From the date hereof until the
Closing, the Company shall conduct its

<PAGE>

business in the ordinary course and shall use all reasonable efforts to preserve
intact its business organization and relationships with third parties and,
except as otherwise provided herein, to keep available the services of the
present directors, officers and key employees. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, from the date hereof until the Closing, except as contemplated
by this Agreement or as permitted by Section 6.6 or as disclosed in the
Disclosure Letter, without the Purchaser's prior written consent which shall not
be unreasonably withheld:

(A) the Company shall not adopt or propose (or agree to commit
to) any change in the Articles or its Bylaws, except for the Articles

or Persons or acquire any equity,

<PAGE>

partnership or other interests in any other Person or Persons;

of the Company;

(F) the Company shall not enter into any transaction with any
director, executive officer or Affiliate of the Company other than in the
ordinary course of its business;

(G) the Company shall not (i) grant to any employee any increase
in salary or other remuneration or any increase in severance or termination
pay; (ii) grant or approve any general increase in salaries of all or a
substantial portion of its employees; (iii) pay or award any bonus,
incentive compensation, service award or other like benefit for or to the
credit of any employee except in accordance with written agreements
referred to in the Disclosure Letter; or (iv) enter into any employment
contract or severance arrangement with any employee or adopt or amend in
any material respect any employee benefit plans except as required by law;

(H) the Company shall not take or agree to commit to take any
action that would make any

<PAGE>

representation or warranty of the Company hereunder required to be true at
and as of the Closing as a condition to the Purchaser's obligations to
consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, inaccurate at the Closing;

(I) the Company shall not agree to expend, commit or otherwise
obligate itself to make any capital expenditures;

foregoing.

6.3 HART-SCOTT-RODINO. To the extent applicable, the Company
and the Purchaser shall make all filings and furnish all information required
with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by the HSR Act
and shall use their reasonable best efforts to obtain the early termination of
the waiting period thereunder.

6.4 ACCESS AND CONFIDENTIALITY.

(A) Upon reasonable notice prior to the Closing, the
Company shall afford the Purchaser and the Representatives reasonable access
during normal business hours

<PAGE>

to its properties, books, contracts and records and personnel and advisors (who
will be instructed by the Company to cooperate), and the Company shall furnish
promptly to the Purchaser all information concerning its business, properties
and personnel as the Purchaser or the Representatives may reasonably request,
provided that any review will be conducted in a way that will not interfere
unreasonably with the conduct of the Company's business, and provided, further,
that no review pursuant to this Section 6.4 shall affect or be deemed to modify
any representation or warranty made by the Company.

(B) The Purchaser covenants and agrees to abide by the
terms of the Confidentiality Agreement attached as Exhibit J hereto.

6.5 PUBLICITY. Except as required by law, regulation or stock
exchange requirements, neither (A) the Company or any of its Affiliates nor
(B) the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates shall, without the consent of the
other, make any public announcement or issue any press release with respect to
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In no event will either
(i) the Company or any of its Affiliates or (ii) the Purchaser or any of its
Affiliates make any public announcement or issue any press release without
consulting with the other party, to the extent feasible, as to the content of
such public announcement or press release, and in no event will the Company or
any of its Affiliates or the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates make any public

<PAGE>

announcement or press release concerning the identity of the other party without
the prior agreement of the other party.

6.6 ACQUISITION PROPOSALS. From the date hereof until the
earlier of the Closing or the termination of this Agreement, the Company shall
not, directly or indirectly, take (nor shall the Company authorize or permit its
officers, directors, employees, representatives, investment bankers, attorneys,
accountants or other agents or Affiliates, to take) any action to: solicit or
initiate the submission of any Acquisition Proposal, or, subject to the
fiduciary duties of the directors of the Company under Hawaii law based upon a
good faith determination by Board of Directors after taking into account the
advice of counsel and independent investment advisors (as to financial terms and
availability of financing) with respect thereto (in which case Sections 9.1 and
9.2 shall be applicable), enter into any agreement with respect to or propose
any Acquisition Proposal or participate in any way in discussions or
negotiations with, or furnish any information to, any Person (other than the
Purchaser or any of its partners or officers, directors, employees,
representatives, investment bankers, attorneys, accountants, other agents or
Affiliates) in connection with, or take any other action to facilitate any
inquiries or the making of any proposal that constitutes, or may reasonably be
expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall give immediate
telephonic notice to the Purchaser (promptly followed by

<PAGE>

written notice) of its receipt of any Acquisition Proposal or of any inquiry or
request for information contemplating an Acquisition Proposal. The Company
shall keep the Purchaser informed, on a current basis, of the status of any
Acquisition Proposal and any negotiations or discussions relating to such a
proposal.

Except as required by law, the Company agrees that it shall not
disclose to any Person any written information furnished to it by the Purchaser
or any of its Representatives (including, without limitation, Paul, Weiss,
Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison).

6.7 CERTIFICATES FOR SHARES TO BEAR LEGENDS.

(A) So long as the Shares are not sold pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the Act or pursuant to Rule 144 under the
Act, the Shares shall be subject to a stop-transfer order and the certificates
therefor shall bear the following legend by which each holder thereof shall be
bound:

"THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR
SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO (i) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, OR (ii) AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION
THEREUNDER."

(B) After the termination of the legend requirements of
Section 6.7(A), the Company shall, upon the written request of the holders of
the Shares and receipt by

<PAGE>

the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it that such requirement has
terminated (including a written opinion of outside counsel), issue certificates
for such Shares that do not bear all or part of the legend described in Section
6.7(A).

6.8 USE OF PROCEEDS. The net proceeds of the sale of the Shares
will be used by the Company as determined by the Board of Directors as
constituted immediately following the Closing.

6.9 RIGHTS OFFERING. The Purchaser agrees that as soon as
practicable following the Closing Date it shall use its best efforts to cause
the Company to make a rights offering to such persons and with such terms and
conditions as the Board of Directors as at such time constituted shall
determine, but including the following (the "Rights Offering"):

(a) Each shareholder and option holder shall be entitled to
the right (a "Right") to acquire one share of Class A Common Stock for each
share of Common Stock owned, or subject to an option owned, by such Person; and

(b) Each Right shall be exercisable for twenty (20) days at
a discount equal to at least 30% of the Market Price for the Class A Common
Stock measured over a period of time (as determined by the Board of Directors as
at such time constituted) prior to the exercise date, subject to a minimum
exercise price of $1.10 per share.

<PAGE>

6.10 PURCHASER VOTE. In the event that the vote required under
the Articles and Hawaiian law to approve the Articles Amendment is not obtained,
then the Purchaser hereby agrees that promptly following the Closing, it will
deliver to the Corporate Secretary of the Company a written request that the
Corporate Secretary call a special meeting of shareholders to approve the
Articles Amendment, and the Purchaser further agrees that it will vote the Class
A Common Stock acquired by it hereunder in favor of the Articles Amendment at
such meeting of shareholders.

7. SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS.

The representations and warranties and all covenants and
agreements contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this
Agreement and the Closing hereunder and continue in effect thereafter through,
to and including December 8, 1997, at which time they shall terminate except
with respect to claims asserted for any breach or inaccuracy prior to
December 8, 1997; PROVIDED, that following the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall
have a claim pursuant to a breach of the representation and warranty contained
in Section 4.17 only if the facts and circumstances giving rise to such breach
have had, or would be reasonably likely to have, individually or in the
aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

<PAGE>

8. INDEMNIFICATION.

8.1 INDEMNIFICATION BY THE COMPANY. In addition to all other
sums due hereunder or provided for in this Agreement, the Company agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser, its partners and their respective
Affiliates and the respective officers, directors, agents, employees,
subsidiaries, partners, advisors, representatives and controlling Persons of
each of the foregoing (each, an "indemnified party") to the fullest extent
permitted by law from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses
(including reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel) or other
liabilities ("Liabilities") resulting from any legal, administrative or other
actions brought by any Person or entity (including actions brought by the
Company or any equity or debt holders of the Company or derivative actions
brought by any Person claiming through the Company or in the Company's name),
proceedings or investigations (whether formal or informal), or written threats
thereof, based upon, relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the
transactions contemplated hereby, or any indemnified party's role therein or in
the transactions contemplated hereby; PROVIDED, that the Company shall not be
liable under this Section 8.1 to an indemnified party to the extent that it is
finally judicially determined that such Liabilities resulted primarily from the
willful malfeasance of such indemnified party; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that if
and to the extent that such indemnification

<PAGE>

is unenforceable for any reason other than the immediately preceding proviso,
the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction
of such indemnified Liabilities that shall be permissible under applicable laws.
In connection with the obligation of the Company to indemnify for Liabilities as
set forth above, the Company further agrees to reimburse each indemnified party
for all such expenses (including reasonable fees, disbursements and other
charges of counsel) as they are incurred by such indemnified party provided that
each such indemnified party shall have undertaken to repay any such amounts in
the event that it is finally judicially determined that the Company is not
liable under this Section 8.1 for such Liabilities.

8.2 NOTIFICATION. Each indemnified party under this Section 8
will, promptly after the receipt of notice of the commencement of any action or
other proceeding against such indemnified party in respect of which indemnity
may be sought from the Company under Section 8, notify the Company in writing of
the commencement thereof. The omission of any indemnified party so to notify
the Company of any such action shall not relieve the Company from any liability
that it may have to such indemnified party unless the Company is materially
prejudiced thereby. In case any such action or other proceeding shall be
brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the Company of the
commencement thereof, the Company shall be entitled to participate therein

<PAGE>

and, to the extent that it may wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any
indemnified party may, at its own expense, retain separate counsel to
participate in such defense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any action or
proceeding in which both the Company and an indemnified party is, or is
reasonably likely to become, a party, such indemnified party shall have the
right to employ separate counsel at the Company's expense and to control its own
defense of such action or proceeding if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel to
such indemnified party, there are or may be legal defenses available to such
indemnified party or to other indemnified parties that are different from or
additional to those available to the Company which, if the Company and such
indemnified party were to be represented by the same counsel, would constitute a
conflict of interest for such counsel or materially prejudice the prosecution of
the defenses available to such indemnified party; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in no
event shall the Company be required to pay fees and expenses under this
Article 8 for more than one firm of attorneys representing the indemnified
parties (together, if appropriate, with one firm of local counsel per
jurisdiction) in any one legal action or group of related legal actions. The
Company shall not be liable for any settlement of such action or proceeding
effected without its prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld. The

<PAGE>

Company agrees that the Company will not, without the prior written consent of
the Purchaser, not to be unreasonably withheld, settle, compromise or consent to
the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action or
proceeding relating to any matter subject to indemnification hereunder unless
such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of the
Purchaser and each other indemnified party from all Liabilities and the
Purchaser and each other indemnified party are not obligated to take or forego
taking any action, including the payment of money, thereunder. The rights
accorded to indemnified parties hereunder shall be in addition to any rights
that any indemnified party may have at common law, under federal and state
securities laws, by separate agreement or otherwise.

8.3 REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Section 8, the indemnification and contribution provisions
of the Registration Rights Agreement shall govern any claim made with respect to
registration statements filed pursuant thereto or sales made thereunder.

<PAGE>

(D) by the Purchaser or the Company if the Shareholder

the other matters contemplated by Sections 3.1.2 and 3.1.4;

(E) by the Purchaser if there has been a material breach of
any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Company contained in

no pending or threatened action, suit, proceeding or investigation questioning
the validity of this Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement or any
action to be taken pursuant hereto or thereto or seeking to enjoin consummation
of any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, shall give the
Purchaser any right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(E) except
as set forth in paragraph (J) below;

any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Purchaser contained

(J) by the Company or the Purchaser, if any judgment,
injunction, order or decree enjoining the Company or the Purchaser from
consummating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is entered and such
judgment, injunction, order or decree becomes final and nonappealable; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that the party seeking to terminate this Agreement must use all
reasonable efforts to remove such judgment, injunction, order or decree; and

(K) by mutual written consent of the Company and the
Purchaser.

9.2 FEES AND EXPENSES.

(A) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section
9.1(A), (B), (C), (D), (E), (G), (I) or (J), then the Company shall promptly,
but in no event later than one business day after the date of termination of
this Agreement, pay the Purchaser a termination fee of $250,000 and reimburse
the Purchaser for all of the Transaction Expenses of the Purchaser and its
Affiliates (up to a maximum amount of $400,000); PROVIDED, that notwithstanding
the foregoing, in connection with this Section 9.2(A) only, with respect to a
termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(I) or

<PAGE>

(J), if the facts or circumstances giving rise to the right of a party to
terminate this Agreement pursuant to either such Section were beyond the
reasonable control of the Company, then the Company shall not be obligated to
pay to the Purchaser the $250,000 termination fee provided for in this Section
9.2(A).

(B) In the event that prior to November 6, 1996 the Company
consummates any transaction described in the definition of "Acquisition
Proposal" or a series of such transactions or consummates a Successor
Transaction, then the Company shall pay to the Purchaser a termination fee, not
to exceed $750,000 equal to (x) 5% of the aggregate consideration (which shall
not include the proceeds of loans made to, or debt securities issued by, the
Company in connection with such transaction unless such loans or debt securities
are convertible into or exchangeable for equity securities or are issued
together with equity securities or warrants or similar rights to acquire equity
securities) received by the Company or its shareholders in any such transaction
or series of transactions if such consideration is received on or prior to May
6, 1996 and (y) 2-1/2% of the aggregate consideration received by the Company or
its shareholders after May 6, 1996 and on or prior to November 6, 1996.

<PAGE>

in the form of Class A Common Stock valued at $1.10 per share (the "Valuation
Price"). The following provisions shall be applicable to such election:

(i) The Purchaser shall make its election within 30
days of the consummation of the transaction giving rise to the termination fee,
by giving notice to the Company (the "Election Notice") of the Purchaser's
election to receive all or a portion of the termination fee in the form of Class
A Common Stock and the number of shares so elected ("Stock Election") or to
receive the termination fee entirely in cash. In the absence of any election
Notice, the Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to receive the termination
fee entirely in cash.

(ii) If the Stock Election is made, the Company shall
deliver to the Purchaser a certificate or certificates representing the number
of shares referred to in the Stock Election, and the remainder of the
termination fee in cash.

(iii) Prior to the issuance of the shares pursuant to
the Stock Election, the Company shall have taken all necessary corporate action
to authorize the issuance of the shares of Class A Common Stock issued pursuant
to the Stock Election, all of which, upon such issuance and delivery will be
duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and not subject
to any preemptive rights or options or other rights of any kind.

<PAGE>

(iv) The Purchaser will acquire the shares issued
pursuant to the Stock Election for investment purposes only and not with a view
to any public resale or distribution thereof in violation of, and will not sell
any such shares except in compliance with, the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "1933 Act"). If the Company effects a registration of Class A
Common Stock for its own account or for any other shareholder of the Company
(other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8, or any successor form), it shall allow the
Purchaser to participate in such registration; provided, however, that if the
managing underwriters in such offering advise the Company in writing that in
their opinion the number of shares of Common Stock requested to be included in
such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering, the
Company will include the securities requested to be included therein pro rata
among the holders requesting to be included. Such registration shall be
effected at the Company's expense, except for underwriting discounts and
commissions, and fees and expenses of the Purchaser's counsel.

(v) In the event of any change in the number of issued
and outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock by reason of any stock dividend,
split-up, merger, recapitalization, reclassification, combination or other
change in the capital stock of the Company, the number and kind of shares
referred to in the Stock Election and the

<PAGE>

Valuation Price shall be appropriately adjusted to restore to the Purchaser its
rights to the termination fee.

(D) In the event that any party (the "plaintiff") brings a
legal action against any other party (the "defendant") for the collection of any
termination fees or Transaction Expenses under this Section 9.2 and thereafter
the plaintiff collects any portion of such fees or Transactions Expenses from
the defendant, the defendant shall also reimburse the plaintiff for all out-of-
pocket costs, fees and expenses, including, without limitation, the fees and
disbursements of counsel and the expenses of litigation, incurred by the
plaintiff in connection with such legal action.

(E) All amounts payable in cash under this Section 9.2
shall be paid in immediately available funds to an account or accounts
designated by the relevant party.

9.3 EFFECT OF TERMINATION. If this Agreement is terminated
pursuant to Section 9.1, this Agreement shall become void and of no effect
with no liability on the part of any party hereto, except (A) to the extent
such termination results from the breach by a party hereto of any of its
representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this
Agreement, then such party shall be required to pay only the liquidated
damages specified in Section 9.2 and (B) that the representation contained in
Section 4.25 (Finder's Fee) and the covenants and agreements contained in

<PAGE>

Sections 6.4(B) (Confidentiality), 6.5 (Publicity), 8.1 (Indemnification), 8.2,
9.2 (Termination), 9.3 and 10 shall survive the termination hereof.

10. MISCELLANEOUS.

10.1 PERFORMANCE; WAIVER. The provisions of this Agreement may
be modified or amended, and waivers and consents to the performance and
observance of the terms hereof may be given by written instrument executed and
delivered by (A) prior to the Closing, the Company and the Purchaser and (B)
after the Closing, (i) with respect to this Section 10.1, the Company (with the
approval of a majority of the Disinterested Directors who are not partners of
the Purchaser, or the Purchaser General Partner or officers, directors or
employees of any of the foregoing and including in such majority one
Unaffiliated Director), and (ii) with respect to all other Sections of this
Agreement, the Company (with the approval of a majority of the Disinterested
Directors) and the Purchaser. The failure at any time to require performance of
any provision hereof shall in no way affect the full right to require such
performance at any time thereafter (unless performance thereof has been waived
in accordance with the terms hereof for all purposes and at all times by the
parties to whom the benefit of such performance is to be rendered). The waiver
by any party to this Agreement of a breach of any provision hereof shall not be
taken or held to be a waiver of any succeeding breach of such provision or any
other provision

<PAGE>

or as a waiver of the provision itself unless the waiver specifically so states.

10.2 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. All covenants and agreements
contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of the parties hereto shall bind,
and inure the benefit of, the respective successors and assigns of the parties
hereto; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the rights and obligations of either party
hereto may not be assigned (other than by the Purchaser to an Affiliate of the
Purchaser ) without the prior written consent of the other party. Each such
assignment shall be made by such assignee and assignor, as the case may be, and
the Company executing an agreement pursuant to which the assignee shall
expressly agree to become a party to this Agreement and to be bound by the terms
of this Agreement.

10.3 NOTICES. All notices or other communications given or made

Annex II

Board of Directors
HAWAIIAN AIRLINES, INC.
3375 Koapaka Street
Suite G-350
Honolulu, Hawaii 96819

Ladies and Gentlemen:

You have requested our opinion as to the fairness, from a financial point
of view, to the current holders of Class A Stock Common Stock and Class B Common
Stock (collectively "Common Stock") of Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. ("Hawaiian" or
the "Company") of the consideration to be paid by Airline Investors Partnership,
L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("AIP") to acquire 18,181,818 shares (the
"Common Shares") of the Company's Class A Common Stock (the "Equity Infusion")
and 1 share of the Company's newly created special voting preferred stock (the
"Preferred Shares," and with the Common Shares, the "New Shares"). The terms of
the Equity Infusion are set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement to be entered
into on December 8, 1995 by and among the Company and AIP (the "Agreement"). We
understand that, pursuant to the Agreement, the aggregate consideration for the
New Shares is $20,000,000 or $1.10 per share. The closing sale price of the
Company's Class A Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange as of December 6,
1995, was $2.75. The New Shares represent approximately 60.9% of the fully
diluted common equity of the Company as of September 30, 1995 (assuming exercise
of all outstanding warrants and options and issuance of all shares to be issued
under the Company's Third Amended Consolidated Plan of Reorganization, as
amended). In addition, we understand that, pursuant to the Agreement, AIP and
the Company will have additional rights and obligations with respect to the
issuance of additional equity securities of the Company to AIP and existing
shareholders and corporate governance matters, including, among other things,
the size and composition of the Company's Board of Directors and the approvals
required to engage in certain extraordinary transactions.

Jefferies & Company, Inc. ("Jefferies"), as part of its investment banking
business, is regularly engaged in the evaluation of capital structures and the
rendering of advice in financial restructurings and recapitalizations. In
addition, Jefferies performs valuations of businesses and their securities in
connection with mergers and acquisitions, negotiated underwritings, competitive
biddings, secondary distributions of listed and unlisted securities, private
placements, financial restructurings and other financial services. As you are
aware, Jefferies has received a fee for providing this opinion in connection
with its engagement as exclusive financial advisor to the Company and will
receive a fee in connection with the Equity Infusion. In addition to delivering
its opinion, Jefferies has actively assisted the Company in obtaining and
negotiating the terms of the Equity Infusion.

In the ordinary course of our business, we may actively trade securities of
Hawaiian for the accounts of our customers and, accordingly, may at any time
hold a long or short position in such securities.

In connection with our opinion, we have reviewed a draft copy of the
Agreement (draft dated December 6, 1995) and related exhibits thereto and
certain financial and other information that was publicly available or furnished
to us by Hawaiian, including certain internal financial analyses, financial
forecasts, reports and other information prepared by management of Hawaiian. We
have also discussed with representatives of management of Hawaiian the business,
properties and prospects of Hawaiian and undertaken other reviews, analyses and
inquiries relating to Hawaiian.

In our review and analysis and in rendering this opinion, we have relied
upon, and have not independently verified, the accuracy, completeness and fair
presentation of all financial and other information (including financial
projections and estimates) that were provided to us by or on behalf of Hawaiian,
or which were publicly available, and this opinion is conditioned upon such
information (whether written or oral) being complete, accurate and fair in all
material respects. With regard to the historical financial information, we have
relied upon the opinion, issued by Hawaiian's independent public accountants, in
connection with the Company's audited financial statements. With respect to the
above noted projected financial information, we have assumed with your
permission and without independent verification, that such information has been
reasonably prepared on bases reasonably reflecting management's best currently
available estimates and good faith judgments as to the future performance of
Hawaiian and that Hawaiian will perform in accordance with such projections for
all periods specified therein. We have not made an independent evaluation or
appraisal or conducted a physical inspection of any of the assets of Hawaiian,
nor have we been furnished with any such appraisals. Our opinion is based on
economic, monetary, political, market, and other conditions existing and which
can be evaluated as of the date of this opinion; however, such conditions are
subject to rapid and unpredictable change. We have assumed, with your
permission, that all consents, authorizations and agreements of other parties
necessary to consummate the Equity Infusion have been, or will be, obtained
without material expense. Our opinion is addressed solely to the fairness, from
a financial point of view, of the consideration to be paid by AIP in the Equity
Infusion. In addition, we express no opinion as to the fairness or consequences
of the common stock purchase rights offering contemplated by the Agreement.

Without limiting the foregoing, we expressly disclaim any undertaking or
obligation to advise any person of any change in any fact or matter affecting
our opinion of which we become aware after the date hereof.

In conducting our analysis and arriving at our opinion as expressed herein,
we have considered such financial and other factors as we have deemed
appropriate under the circumstances, including, among others: (i) the terms and
business and financial aspects of the Equity Infusion; (ii) the Company's need
for capital and available alternatives for raising equity

capital; (iii) the historical and current markets for the Company's common stock
and for other securities of certain companies believed by Jefferies to be
comparable to the Company; (iv) public equity issuances of other airline
companies and the current environment for public equity issuances; (v) the use
of proceeds and the financial impact of the Equity Infusion on the holders of
the Company's common and preferred stock; (vi) certain of the Company's
operating and financial information, including projections provided by
management relating to the Company's business and prospects; (vii) publicly
available financial data and stock market performance data of other public
companies which Jefferies deemed generally comparable to the Company; (viii) the
Agreement and related Exhibits and Schedules, all in substantially final form;
and (ix) the Company's Annual Reports to Shareholders and Annual Reports on Form
10-K for the fiscal years ended on December 31, 1992 through 1994, and its
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 1995.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, and based upon such other matters
as we considered relevant, it is our opinion as investment bankers that, as of
the date hereof, the consideration to be paid by AIP in the Equity Infusion is
fair, from a financial point of view, to current common stock holders of
Hawaiian.

It is understood that this letter is for the use of the Board of Directors
of the Company only and may not be used for any other purpose without our prior
written consent. Without limiting the foregoing, this letter does not
constitute a recommendation to any stockholder of Hawaiian as to how such
stockholder should vote with respect to the Equity Infusion. Jefferies reserves
the right to approve all references to Jefferies and this opinion that may
appear in any proxy materials that may be filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission in connection with the Equity Infusion.

Sincerely,

JEFFERIES & COMPANY, INC.

ITEM 1. (CONTINUED)

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed financial statements
included in this report contain all adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation of the results of operations and cash flows for the interim
periods covered and the financial condition of Hawaiian Airlines, Inc.
("Hawaiian Airlines" or the "Company" or the "Reorganized Company") as of
September 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994. The operating results for the
interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected
for the full fiscal year.

The unaudited financial statements at September 30, 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. As discussed herein, the Company has continued to experience
net and operating losses. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that the
Company will succeed in solving its liquidity problems or that the Company
will have sufficient cash resources to support its continued operations.
Because of the Company's liquidity shortage, an adverse change in events and
circumstances could result in the Company being unable to meet its financial
obligations. 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 the uncertainties discussed herein. 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.

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." This SFAS No. 121 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 for determination of possible impairment
adjustments 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 has not estimated
the impact that adoption of the Statement is expected to have on its
financial statements.

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

- 6 -

<PAGE>

purposes of preparing its basic financial statements. For entities not
adopting the new method, SFAS No. 123 requires that they disclose in their
footnotes 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 plans to either adopt the
new, fair value based method or the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123
in its financial statements for 1996.

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform prior period's data to
current period's presentation.

As disclosed in the Supplemental Financial Information, Unaudited Quarterly
Financial Information contained in Hawaiian Airlines' Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994 (the "1994 Form 10-K"), certain
significant quarterly adjustments for calendar year 1994 were recorded. The
results for the appropriate quarters of 1994 have been restated to reflect
those adjustments. All period-to-period comparisons contained in Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
refer to the restated 1994 results.

The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and the notes thereto contained in the 1994 Form 10-K,
which are incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

INTRODUCTION

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 "Debtors" or "Predecessor")
commenced reorganization cases by filing voluntary petitions for relief under
Chapter 11, Title 11 ("Chapter 11") of the United States (the "U.S.") Code in
the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Hawaii (the "Bankruptcy
Court"). 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 "Plan"). On August 30, 1994, the
Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Plan and with the
satisfaction of certain conditions, the Plan became effective on September
12, 1994 (the "Effective Date").

Pursuant to the 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. On the Effective Date, all of
the outstanding equity securities of the Company, HAL, INC., and West Maui
Airport, Inc. were cancelled, including without limitation, all outstanding
common, preferred and preference stock of HAL, INC.

Under the Plan, the Company is to issue and distribute 9,400,000 shares of
its common stock to all of the unsecured creditors with claims allowed under
the Plan. The Company's common stock consists 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 November 10,
1995, 6,581,133 shares of Class A and 1,933,589 shares of Class B Common
Stock are issued and outstanding. The Company anticipates distributing a
majority of the remaining 885,278 shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B
Common Stock by the end of the fiscal year. Included in the amount not yet
distributed is an estimated 335,141 shares of Class A Common Stock for
resolution of claims still being disputed with general unsecured creditors.
As disputed claims are finally resolved, the creditor holding such claim will
receive a distribution of stock. Any shares withheld in excess of the amount
distributed to such creditor will be held until all disputed claims have been
resolved. 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.

Pursuant to the Plan, the Company has granted warrants to purchase an
additional 989,011 shares of its Class A Common Stock, none of which have
been exercised. Pursuant to the terms of the Plan, 600,000 shares of the
Company's Class A Common Stock have been reserved for issuance under a 1994
Stock Option Plan. The Company's Class A Common Stock began trading on the
American Stock Exchange and the Pacific Stock Exchange on June 21, 1995.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of September 30, 1995, the Company had a net working capital deficit of
$46.3 million, representing a $500,000 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 a net increase in accounts payable,
accrued liabilities and air traffic liability of $10.5 million

- 8 -

<PAGE>

being offset by an aggregate increase in cash and accounts receivable of
$10.2 million. The Company continues to experience liquidity shortages.

Effective April 13, 1995, the Company and American Airlines, Inc.
("American") executed Amendment No. 2 (the "April Amendment") to the
long-term Aircraft Lease Agreement (the "Aircraft Lease Agreement") providing
for the deferral of payment of approximately $11.1 million of delinquent
lease rents and maintenance payments. The April Amendment provides that the
Company is to remit periodic payments (generally on a weekly basis) to
American commencing March 31, 1995 and ending December 22, 1995, in amounts
ranging from approximately $25,000 to $950,000, including interest at 10.0%
per annum, plus payments for the basic rent of aircraft. Maintenance payments
will also be payable weekly, but in the same aggregate amounts as set forth
in the original terms of the Aircraft Lease Agreements. Thereafter,
commencing January 5, 1996, the Company is required to pay, weekly in
advance, the basic rent payments owed for the aircraft and maintenance
payments in respect of the aircraft. The Company paid to American the first
five weekly payments of deferred amounts due under the April Amendment, in an
aggregate amount of approximately $4.2 million, leaving a balance due of $6.9
million. However, the Company failed to make deferred and basic rent payments
to American of $600,000 and $986,000, respectively, commencing May 8, 1995.

The Company and American have subsequently deferred the due date for the
repayment of the remaining $6.9 million of delinquent lease rents and
maintenance payments on three occassions. Amendment No. 3 dated June 1, 1995
deferred the due date until August 22, 1995. Amendment No. 4 dated August
22, 1995 deferred the due date until October 6, 1995. The most recent
amendment, Amendment No. 5 dated October 6, 1995 (the "October Amendment")
defers the due date until November 20, 1995. By November 20, 1995, the
amount of interest accrued on the delinquent $6.9 million brings the total
amount due to $7.1 million. The October Amendment provides that if the
Company remits to American payments of approximately $6.9 million on or
before November 20, 1995, the Company will pay (generally on a weekly basis)
to American the remaining $226,000 of the $7.1 million deferred rent
commencing November 22, 1995 and ending December 22, 1995, in amounts ranging
from approximately $25,000 to $125,000. In addition, the Company will remit
to American periodic payments (generally on a weekly basis) commencing May 1,
1995 through and including December 31, 1995 for the basic rent of aircraft.
Thereafter, commencing January 1, 1996, the Company will be required to pay,
weekly in advance, the basic rent payments owed for the aircraft and
maintenance payments in respect of the aircraft.

The Company is current with respect to its payments for basic rent of
aircraft under the October Amendment and maintenance payments under the
Aircraft Lease Agreement. As of September 30, 1995, approximately $7.1
million of deferred lease rents and maintenance payments is outstanding. The
failure of the Company to timely make payment in full of $6.9 million due on
or before November 20, 1995 would permit American to exercise remedies
available to it, which include, but are not limited to, termination of the
lease, repossession of certain aircraft and engines, recovery of damages and
drawings under the letters of credit provided by the Company with respect to
the Aircraft Lease Agreement.

The ability of the Company to satisfy its obligations with respect to making
the payment due to American by November 20, 1995 will depend on the Company's
ability to obtain additional debt or equity financing. There can be no
assurance that American will agree to a further extension, or that the
Company will be able to make the payment by November 20, 1995 or any extended
due date or that a favorable resolution of the matter will occur.

<PAGE>

The Company has made credit facility borrowings under a financing arrangement
with CIT Group/Credit Finance, Inc. ("CIT"). The financing arrangement
consists of a credit facility of up to $8.15 million consisting of a secured
revolving credit facility including up to $3.0 million of letters of credit
(the "Financing"). Available credit is subject to reduction determined by
recalculation of the borrowing base and repayments arising from disposition
of collateral. As of the date of this report, the amount of the facility had
been effectively reduced to approximately $5.0 million, which amount was
fully drawn in the form of $2.9 million in borrowings and $2.1 million in
letters of credit.

The Company currently does not have access to other unutilized credit
facilities and does not have any unencumbered assets. Accordingly, its
access to additional sources of liquidity remains limited. The Company has
engaged an investment bank to assist in obtaining additional financing. A
series of discussions with potential investors to solicit interest in
providing additional capital in return for shares representing an equity
interest have been held. The Company has also presented a proposal to its
pilots, flight attendants, ground crews and clerical staff to amend their
current collective bargaining agreements to, among other things, extend the
existing agreements beyond their current terms.

As a result of and following the discussions with potential investors, on
November 6, 1995, the Company signed a letter of intent with a private
investor group to provide $20.0 million of new equity capital to the Company
in exchange for 18,181,818 shares of Hawaiian Airlines Class A Common Stock.
The letter of intent also contemplates a rights offering to the Company's
existing shareholders, to take place at some point during 1996, at a
substantial discount from the then current market price. The transaction,
which will result in the investor group having six of the current eleven
Board of Director seats, is subject to numerous conditions, including the
negotiation and execution of definitive agreements and certain modifications
to the agreements with the Company's unions and certain of its creditors. If
the conditions are satisfied, it is contemplated that the definitive
agreements will be signed in early December 1995, with closing scheduled as
soon as possible thereafter. Unless it is successful in these efforts, there
are likely to be liquidity shortages in the future.

See discussion with respect to preparation of financial statements on a going
concern basis in Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements, above.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company believes that the operating revenues and expenses of the
Reorganized Company for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1995
have been presented on a basis which is in all material respects consistent
with the presentation of the operating revenues and expenses of the
Predecessor for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1994.

The Company generated operating and net income of $4.0 million and $2.9
million, respectively, during the third quarter of 1995. This represents an
increase of $347,000 in operating income and a decrease of $179.5 million
in net income from the third quarter of 1994.

* In thousands

Operating revenues totalled $93.4 million during the third quarter of 1995,
compared to $86.5 million during the same period in 1994, an increase of $6.9
million or 8.0%.

Revenues from Interisland passenger service totalled $30.2 million during
third quarter 1995, a decrease of $2.0 million or 6.1% from third quarter
1994. Large volume promotional fare ticket programs used by Interisland
competitors in the third quarter of 1995 had a direct effect in decreasing
the number of Interisland passengers carried by the Company and revenue
passenger miles period over period by 6.8% and 5.8%, respectively. Also,
Interisland yield decreased by 0.1CENTS or 0.4% due to the prevalence of such
promotional fare ticket programs in the Interisland market.

Revenues from Transpacific passenger operations amounted to $43.8 million
during the third quarter of 1995 compared to $42.3 million in the third
quarter of 1994, an increase of $1.6 million or 3.7%. Increases of 8.4% and
6.6% in revenue passengers carried and revenue passenger miles, respectively,
were offset by a decrease of 0.2CENTS or 3.0% in Transpacific

- 12 -

<PAGE>

yield. Increased frequency to Los Angeles, California, Las Vegas, Nevada and
Portland, Oregon resulted in increased revenue passengers carried, revenue
passenger miles and available seat miles. The decrease in yield was
primarily caused by continued downward pressure on fares due to heavy pricing
competition in the Transpacific market.

Overseas charter revenues of $6.7 million were earned in the third quarter of
1995 due to the commencement of charter operations between Honolulu, Hawaii
and Las Vegas, Nevada in 1995.

</TABLE>

Operating expenses totalled $89.4 million in the third quarter of 1995, an
increase of $6.5 million or 7.8% over the third quarter of 1994.

Wages and benefits in third quarter 1995 increased by $1.3 million or 4.7%
from third quarter 1994. The increase was principally caused by 1) the
recognition of $1.9 million in compensation expense under the provisions of a
1994 Stock Option Plan for officers and key employees of the Company; and 2)
a $700,000 decrease in workers' compensation premiums and related expenses
for the period as the Company changed its workers' compensation insurance
carrier and policy in the third quarter of 1995. The remaining $972,000 of
compensation cost under the 1994 Stock Option Plan has been reflected as
unearned compensation in the accompanying balance sheet and will be amortized
ratably over the next four months.

Maintenance materials and repairs period over period increased by $4.3
million or 34.1%. The increase was primarily caused by 1) $2.5 million in
additional maintenance costs associated with the use of eight DC-10-10
aircraft in third quarter 1995 versus five DC-10-10 aircraft

- 13 -

<PAGE>

and one L-1011 aircraft in third quarter 1994; and 2) $2.3 million in
increased engine repairs associated with the Company's DC-9-50 aircraft.

Aircraft fuel, including taxes and oil, increased by $1.5 million or 11.9% in
third quarter 1995 over third quarter 1994. Due to increased frequencies
quarter over quarter, the Company consumed approximately 3.0 million or 14.0%
more gallons of aircraft fuel. Increased fuel usage was offset by a decrease
in the average cost per gallon in the third quarter of 1995 versus the third
quarter of 1994 by 1.1CENTS or 1.9%. The Company anticipates further
increases in its aircraft fuel costs as a 4.3CENTS per gallon surcharge tax
will become effective October 1, 1995.

Aircraft rentals decreased by $939,000 or 18.0% in 1995. The decrease was
primarily caused by $1.0 million less in DC-9-50 aircraft and engine rents
due to such rents being restructured on the Effective Date.

Advertising and promotion increased by $838,000 or 68.2%, a direct result of
efforts to increase the Company's exposure in the Interisland and West Coast
markets through advertising and telecommunications media.

The decrease in other operating expenses is principally due to the reversal
of $1.8 million in preconfirmation contingency accruals initially provided
for on the Effective Date.

REORGANIZATION ITEMS

Reorganization items of $10.9 million were recorded in the third quarter of
1994 representing reorganization legal and professional fees, certain
transactions as contemplated under the Plan and the revaluation of assets and
liabilities on the Effective Date.

EXTRAORDINARY ITEM

An extraordinary item of $190.1 million was recorded in the third quarter of
1994 primarily due to the extinguishment of prepetition liabilities.

ITEM 1. (CONTINUED)

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed financial statements
included in this report contain all adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation of the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods
covered and the financial condition of Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. ("Hawaiian
Airlines" or the "Company" or the "Reorganized Company") as of June 30, 1995 and
December 31, 1994. The operating results for the interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

The unaudited financial statements at June 30, 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. As
discussed herein, the Company has continued to experience net and operating
losses. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that the Company will succeed in
solving its liquidity problems or that the Company will have sufficient cash
resources to support its continued operations. Because of the Company's
liquidity shortage, an adverse change in events and circumstances outside the
control of management could result in the Company being unable to meet its
financial obligations. 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 the uncertainties discussed herein. 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.

In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-
Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" (the "Statement"). 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.

The Statement requires that a review be made of long-lived assets and certain
identifiable intangible assets for determination of possible impairment
adjustments 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.

The Statement 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 the Statement in 1996. Restatement of previously
issued financial statements is not permitted. The Company has not estimated the
impact that adoption of the Statement is expected to have on its financial
statements.

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform prior period's data to
current period's presentation.

As disclosed in the Supplemental Financial Information, Unaudited Quarterly
Financial Information contained in Hawaiian Airlines' Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 1994 (the "1994 Form 10-K"), certain significant
quarterly adjustments for calendar year 1994 were recorded. The results for the
appropriate quarters of 1994 have been restated to reflect those adjustments.
All period-to-period comparisons contained in Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations refer to the restated
1994 results.

The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and the notes thereto contained in the 1994 Form 10-K,
which are incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

INTRODUCTION

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 "Debtors" or "Predecessor") commenced
reorganization cases by filing voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11,
Title 11 ("Chapter 11") of the United States (the "U.S.") Code in the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Hawaii (the "Bankruptcy Court").
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 "Plan"). On August 30, 1994, the Bankruptcy Court entered an
order confirming the Plan and with the satisfaction of certain conditions, the
Plan became effective on September 12, 1994 (the "Effective Date").

Pursuant to the 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. On the Effective Date, all of
the outstanding equity securities of the Company, HAL, INC., and West Maui
Airport, Inc. were cancelled, including without limitation, all outstanding
common, preferred and preference stock of HAL, INC.

Under the Plan, the Company is to issue and distribute 9,400,000 shares of its
common stock to all of the unsecured creditors with claims allowed under the
Plan. The Company's common stock consists 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 June 30, 1995, 4,896,361 shares of Class A
and 1,718,828 shares of Class B Common Stock are issued and outstanding. The
Company anticipates distributing another 2,111,138 shares of Class A Common
Stock and 673,673 shares of Class B Common Stock by the end of September, 1995
subject to withholding distribution of an estimated 448,820 shares of Class A
Common Stock pending resolution of disputed claims with general unsecured
creditors. As disputed claims are finally resolved, the creditor holding such
claim will receive a distribution of stock. Any shares withheld in excess of
the amount distributed to such creditor will be held until all disputed claims
have been resolved. 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.

Pursuant to the Plan, the Company has granted warrants to purchase an additional
989,011 shares of its Class A Common Stock, none of which have been exercised.
Pursuant to the terms of the Plan, 600,000 shares of the Company's Class A
Common Stock have been reserved for issuance under a 1994 Stock Option Plan.
The Company's Class A Common Stock began trading on the American Stock Exchange
and the Pacific Stock Exchange on June 21, 1995.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of June 30, 1995, the Company had a net working capital deficit of $52.1
million, representing a $6.3 million increase from the net working capital
deficit of $45.8 million at December 31, 1994. The deterioration in the
Company's working capital position is primarily due to increased accounts
payable and accrued liabilities of approximately $13.0 million net of an
increase in accounts receivable of $4.4 million and a reduction of air traffic
liability of

-7-

<PAGE>

$2.7 million. The reduction in air traffic liability has resulted from 1)
the effects of the usage of promotional sale tickets which were unused and
outstanding as of December 31, 1994; and 2) relatively flat ticket sales due
to competition and to the fact that total tourism counts through the first
six months of 1995 were only 1.9% higher than the first six months of 1994.
The Company continues to experience liquidity shortages.

Effective April 13, 1995, the Company and American Airlines, Inc. ("American")
executed Amendment No. 2 (the "April Amendment") to the long-term Aircraft Lease
Agreement (the "Aircraft Lease Agreement") providing for the deferral of payment
of approximately $11.1 million of delinquent lease rents and maintenance
payments. The April Amendment provides that the Company is to remit periodic
payments (generally on a weekly basis) to American commencing March 31, 1995 and
ending December 22, 1995, in amounts ranging from approximately $25,000 to
$950,000, including interest at 10.0% per annum, plus payments for the basic
rent of aircraft. Maintenance payments will also be payable weekly, but in the
same aggregate amounts as set forth in the original terms of the Aircraft Lease
Agreements. Thereafter, commencing January 5, 1996, the Company is required to
pay, weekly in advance, the basic rent payments owed for the aircraft and
maintenance payments in respect of the aircraft. The Company paid to American
the first five weekly payments of deferred amounts due under the April
Amendment, in an aggregate amount of approximately $4.2 million, leaving a
balance due of $6.9 million. However, the Company failed to make deferred and
basic rent payments to American of $600,000 and $986,000, respectively,
commencing May 8, 1995.

As a result, the Company and American entered into Amendment No. 3 to the
Aircraft Lease Agreement dated June 1, 1995 (the "June Amendment"). The June
Amendment provides for the deferral of the remaining $6.9 million of delinquent
lease rents and maintenance payments until August 22, 1995. The June Amendment
provides that if the Company remits to American payments of approximately $5.3
million on or before August 22, 1995, then the Company shall pay to American the
remainder of the $6.9 million deferred rent commencing September 1, 1995 and
ending December 22, 1995, in amounts ranging from approximately $25,000 to
$125,000. In addition, the Company shall remit to American periodic payments
(generally on a weekly basis) commencing May 1, 1995 through and including
December 31, 1995 for the basic rent of aircraft. Thereafter, commencing
January 1, 1996 the Company is required to pay, weekly in advance, the basic
rent payments owed for the aircraft and maintenance payments in respect of the
aircraft.

The Company is current on its payments for basic rent of aircraft under the June
Amendment and maintenance payments under the Aircraft Lease Agreement. As of
June 30, 1995, approximately $6.9 million of deferred lease rents and
maintenance payments is outstanding. The failure of the Company to timely make
payment in full of $5.3 million due on or before August 22, 1995 would permit
American to exercise remedies available to it, which include, but are not
limited to, termination of the lease, repossession of certain aircraft and
engines, recovery of damages and drawings under the letters of credit provided
by the Company with respect to the Aircraft Lease Agreement.

The ability of the Company to satisfy its obligations with respect to making the
payment due to American by August 22, 1995, will depend on the Company's ability
to obtain additional debt or equity financing. The Company has been actively
exploring possible sources of additional financing. The Company is attempting
to obtain the agreement of American to an extension of the August 22, 1995 due
date in order to give the Company the opportunity to obtain the financing it
needs to be able to make the payment. There can be no assurance that American
will agree to an extension, or that the Company will be able to make the payment

-8-

<PAGE>

by August 22, 1995 or any extended due date or that a favorable resolution of
the matter will occur.

On or about July 5, 1995, the Company entered into an aircraft lease agreement
with American pursuant to which the Company is leasing an additional DC-10-10
aircraft from American until January 8, 1996, unless American terminates the
lease earlier upon giving the Company 30 days prior written notice. The
aircraft was placed into revenue service on August 2, 1995. The basic rent and
supplemental rent for maintenance will be payable weekly based upon hours of
use.

On the Effective Date, credit facility borrowings were made by the Company under
a financing arrangement with CIT Group/Credit Finance, Inc. ("CIT"). The
financing arrangement consists of a credit facility of up to $8.15 million
consisting of a secured revolving credit facility including up to $3.0 million
of letters of credit (the "Financing"). Available credit is subject to
reduction determined by recalculation of the borrowing base and repayments
arising from disposition of collateral. As of the date of this report, the
amount of the facility had been effectively reduced to approximately $5.0
million, which amount was approximately fully drawn in the form of $2.9 million
in borrowings and $2.1 million in letters of credit.

The Company currently does not have access to other unutilized credit facilities
and does not have any unencumbered assets. Accordingly, its access to
additional sources of liquidity remains limited. The Company is seeking other
possible sources of external financing, including equity. In addition to
assisting the Company in overcoming its working capital difficulties, this would
also permit it to reduce its reliance on promotional and discounted ticket sales
whose low yields continue to impact operating results. Unless it is successful
in these efforts, there are likely to be liquidity shortages in the future.

See discussion on going concern basis in Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements,
above.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company believes that the operating revenues and expenses of the Reorganized
Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 1995 have been presented on
a basis which is in all material respects consistent with the presentation of
the operating revenues and expenses of the Predecessor for the three and six
months ended June 30, 1994.

The Company generated operating income of $431,000 and incurred a net loss of
$451,000 during the second quarter of 1995. These amounts represent decreases
of $7.4 million and $8.3 million over second quarter 1994 operating and net
losses of $7.0 million and $8.7 million, respectively.

Operating revenues totalled $85.5 million during the second quarter of 1995,
compared to $72.5 million during the same period in 1994, an increase of $13.0
million or 17.9%.

Revenues from Interisland passenger service totalled $31.1 million during second
quarter 1995, an increase of $3.3 million or 11.9% from second quarter 1994.
Increases of 11.9% and 12.3% in Interisland passengers carried and revenue
passenger miles, respectively, were offset by a decrease in Interisland yield of
0.1CENTS or 0.4%. Increases in revenue passengers carried, revenue passenger
miles and available seat miles were a direct result of 1) the utilization of
thirteen DC-9-50 aircraft during the second quarter of 1995 versus, on average
nine DC-9-50 aircraft in the second quarter of 1994; 2) increased passenger
counts due to newly implemented operational concepts such as the Hawaiian
Airlines Island Shuttle from Honolulu to Maui and Kauai; and 3) use of
promotional fare ticket programs. While promotional fare ticket programs were
the primary cause of dilution in second quarter 1995 Interisland yield, included
in second quarter 1995 Interisland passenger revenues is

approximately $1.0 million of promotional coupon breakage (unused coupons
with expired validity).

Revenues from Transpacific passenger operations amounted to $37.8 million during
the second quarter of 1995 compared to $34.5 million in the second quarter of
1994, an increase of $3.3 million or 9.6%. Again, increases of 12.2% and 10.7%
in revenue passengers carried and revenue passenger miles, respectively, were
offset by a decrease of 0.1CENTS or 1.6% in Transpacific yield. Increased
frequency to Los Angeles, California, Las Vegas, Nevada and Portland, Oregon
resulted in increased revenue passengers carried, revenue passenger miles and
available seat miles. The decrease in yield was primarily caused by continued
downward pressure on fares due to heavy pricing competition in the Transpacific
market. Similar to Interisland passenger revenues, second quarter 1995
Transpacific passenger revenues includes approximately $1.0 million of
promotional coupon breakage.

Overseas charter revenues of $5.2 million were earned in the second quarter
of 1995 due to the commencement of charter operations between Honolulu,
Hawaii and Las Vegas, Nevada in 1995.

Operating expenses totalled $85.0 million in the second quarter of 1995, an
increase of $5.8 million or 7.3% over the second quarter of 1994.

Maintenance materials and repairs increased $2.8 million or 23.5% over 1994. In
second quarter 1995, the Company incurred approximately $3.3 million less in
DHC-7 and L-1011 aircraft maintenance expense as these aircraft were phased out
throughout 1994. The decrease was offset by increased maintenance expense of 1)
$4.7 million associated with the Company's DC-10-10 wide-body aircraft; and 2)
$1.4 million related to DC-9-50 airframes and engines.

Aircraft fuel, including taxes and oil, increased by $2.5 million or 22.7%
quarter over quarter. The Company consumed approximately 4.9 million or 27.7%
more gallons of aircraft fuel due to increased frequencies in second quarter
1995 as compared to second quarter 1994. Increased fuel usage was offset by a
decrease in the average cost per gallon in the second quarter of 1995 versus the
second quarter of 1994 by 2.6CENTS or 4.2%.

Aircraft rentals decreased by $2.4 million or 37.5% in 1995. The decrease was a
net result of 1) $2.0 million less in aircraft rents due to the phase out of
DHC-7 and L-1011 aircraft throughout 1994; 2) $1.6 million less in DC-9-50
aircraft and engine rents due to such rents being restructured on the Effective
Date; and 3) $1.3 million more in aircraft rents for DC-10-10 aircraft.

ITEM 1. (CONTINUED)

In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements included in
this report contains all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the
results of operations and statements of cash flow for the interim periods
covered and the financial condition of Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. ("Hawaiian
Airlines" or the "Company" or the "Reorganized Company") as of March 31, 1995
and December 31, 1994. The operating results for the interim period are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform prior year's data to current
year's presentation.

As disclosed in the Supplemental Financial Information, Unaudited Quarterly
Financial Information contained in Hawaiian Airlines' Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 1994, certain significant adjustments were
recorded and the results for the first quarter of 1994 have been restated to
reflect those adjustments. All period-to-period comparisons contained in
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations refer to the restated 1994 results.

The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and the notes thereto contained in Hawaiian Airlines'
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994 (the "1994 Form
10-K"), which are incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

INTRODUCTION

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 "Debtors" or "Predecessor") commenced
reorganization cases by filing voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11,
Title 11 ("Chapter 11") of the United States (the "U.S.") Code in the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Hawaii (the "Bankruptcy Court").
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 "Plan"). On August 30, 1994, the Bankruptcy Court entered
an order confirming the Plan and with the satisfaction of certain conditions,
the Plan became effective on September 12, 1994 (the "Effective Date").

Pursuant to the 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. On the Effective Date, all of
the outstanding equity securities of the Company, HAL, INC., and West Maui
Airport, Inc. were cancelled, including without limitation, all outstanding
common, preferred and preference stock of HAL, INC. Under the Plan, the Company
is to issue and distribute 9,400,000 shares of its common stock to all of the
unsecured creditors with claims allowed under the Plan.

A portion of the shares to be distributed to general unsecured creditors
(currently estimated at 540,000 shares) will be held pending resolution of
disputed claims. As disputed claims are finally resolved, the creditor holding
such claim will receive a distribution of stock. Any shares

-5-
<PAGE>

reserved in excess of the amount distributed to such creditor will be held until
all disputed claims have been resolved. Upon resolution of all disputed claims,
there will be a final distribution of shares to all general unsecured creditors
on a pro rata basis. By the date of the initial distribution, the Company
anticipates that approximately 92.9% of the disputed claims should be resolved.

Under the Plan, the shares of new common stock were to be distributed by
December 12, 1994. As disputed claims were settled, the Company became
concerned that a distribution of new common stock pursuant to the Plan could
result in the Company failing to meet certain requirements under the
Transportation Act regarding the citizenship of its owners. See Item 1 of the
1994 Form 10-K. Accordingly, the Company twice sought and received approval
from the Bankruptcy Court to postpone the distribution of the new common stock.

On April 20, 1995, the Company obtained Bankruptcy Court approval of an
amendment to the Plan which the Company believes will enable it to satisfy the
citizenship test of the Transportation Act and still make all contemplated
distributions under the Plan. The new common stock will be bifurcated into two
classes, one with full voting rights, Class A Common Stock and the other with
limited voting rights, Class B Common Stock. The amendment provides that the
holders of the two largest general unsecured claims and certain of their
affiliates (all of whom are non-U.S. citizens) will receive the distribution due
them under the Plan in part in Class B Common Stock and in part in Class A
Common Stock. The number of shares of Class A Common Stock to be distributed to
them will be determined to assure that after giving effect to the distributions,
non-U.S. citizens will not hold more than 24.0% of the outstanding shares of
Class A Common Stock. The balance of their distribution will be made in shares
of Class B Common Stock and they will be the only persons receiving shares of
Class B Common Stock under the Plan. All other claimants entitled to receive
distributions in stock under the Plan will receive their entire distribution in
shares of Class A Common Stock. The Company anticipates that its shares of new
common stock will be distributed during the second quarter of 1995.

Pursuant to the Plan, the Company has granted warrants to purchase an additional
989,011 shares of its common stock, none of which have been exercised. Pursuant
to the terms of the Plan, 600,000 shares of the Company's common stock have been
reserved for issuance under a 1994 Stock Option Plan. The grant of such options
is subject to the approval of the 1994 Stock Option Plan by shareholders of the
Company.

The Company's Class A Common Stock will be listed on the American Stock Exchange
and the Pacific Stock Exchange. The actual commencement of trading, however,
may be delayed depending on the timing of the distribution of stock to general
unsecured creditors and because significant amounts of stock may be held in
employee stock ownership plans.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of March 31, 1995, the Reorganized Company had a net working capital deficit
of $50.1 million representing a $4.3 million increase from the net working
capital deficit of $45.8 million at December 31, 1994. The deterioration in the
Company's working capital position is primarily due to a combination of an
increase in accounts payable of approximately $7.0 million net of increases in
cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable of $3.4 million. Since the
Effective Date, the Company has experienced liquidity shortfalls.

<PAGE>

Effective April 13, 1995, the Company and American Airlines, Inc.-Registered
Trademark- ("American") executed an amendment to the long-term Aircraft Lease
Agreement providing for the deferral of payment of approximately $11.1
million of delinquent lease rents and maintenance payments. The amendment
provides that the Company is to remit periodic payments (generally on a
weekly basis) to American commencing March 31, 1995 and ending December 22,
1995, in amounts ranging from approximately $25,000 to $950,000, including
interest at 10.0% per annum, plus payments for the basic rent of aircraft.
Maintenance payments will also be payable weekly, but in the same aggregate
amounts as set forth in the original terms of the long-term Aircraft Lease
Agreement. Thereafter, commencing January 5, 1996, the Company is required
to pay, weekly in advance, the basic rent payments owed for the aircraft and
maintenance payments in respect of the aircraft. The Company paid to
American the first five weekly payments of deferred amounts due under the
amendment, in an aggregate amount of approximately $4.2 million. However,
the Company failed to make the payment of $600,000 due May 8, 1995. The
ability of the Company to make up the missed payment and to make the
remaining scheduled weekly payments of deferred amounts under the amendment
is in question. The Company also failed to make a basic rent payment to
American of $986,000 also due on May 8, 1995, but intends to make such
payment as soon as possible, hopefully by no later than the next scheduled
basic rent due date, May 15, 1995. The failure of the Company to timely make
payment in full of payments due under either the amendment or the Aircraft
Lease Agreement gives American the right to exercise remedies available to it
under the Aircraft Lease Agreement, which include, but are not limited to,
termination of the lease, repossession of aircraft and engines, recovery of
damages and drawings under the letters of credit provided by the Company with
respect to the Aircraft Lease Agreement.

Aggregate rent payments of approximately $100,000 due to the lessors on the DC-9
operating leases also were not paid timely by the Company on May 8, 1995; the
Company expects to make those payments within the grace periods provided for in
the lease agreements.

On the Effective Date, credit facility borrowings were made by the Company under
a financing arrangement with CIT Group/Credit Finance, Inc. ("CIT"). The
financing arrangement consists of a credit facility of up to $8.15 million
consisting of a secured revolving credit facility including up to $3.0 million
of letters of credit (the "Financing"). Available credit is subject to
reduction determined by recalculation of the borrowing base and repayments
arising from disposition of collateral. As of the date of this report, the
amount of the facility had been effectively reduced to approximately $5.5
million, which amount was approximately fully drawn in the form of $3.4 million
in borrowings and $2.1 million in letters of credit. The Financing contains
certain restrictive covenants, one of which requires a maintenance of minimum
net worth. Effective April 13, 1995, the minimum required net worth covenant
was reduced from $28.0 million to $20.0 million.

The Company currently does not have access to other unutilized credit facilities
and, since there are no remaining unencumbered assets, its access to additional
sources of liquidity remains limited. The Company is seeking other possible
sources of external financing, but unless it is successful in these efforts,
there may continue to be liquidity shortfalls in the future.

The Company's unaudited financial statements at March 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. As discussed herein, the Company has continued to experience net and
operating losses post Effective Date. Furthermore, there can be no assurance
that the Company will succeed in solving its liquidity problems or that

-7-
<PAGE>

the Company will have sufficient cash resources to support its continued
operations. Because of the Company's liquidity situation, an adverse change in
events and circumstances outside the control of management could result in the
Company being unable to meet its financial obligations. 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 the
uncertainties discussed herein. 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.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company believes that the operating revenues and expenses of the Reorganized
Company for the first quarter 1995 have been presented on a basis which is in
all material respects consistent with the presentation of the operating revenues
and expenses of the Predecessor for the first quarter 1994 except as stated in
Item 1 above.

During the first quarter of 1995, the Company incurred operating and net losses
of approximately $7.4 million and $8.3 million, respectively. However,
reflected in the accompanying financial statements is a one-time, non-monetary
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. In the first quarter of 1995, in an effort to
further reduce labor costs, an early retirement program was offered by the
Company to qualified participants of the ground and salaried personnel defined
benefit plans. Elections by qualified participants were completed with early
retirements scheduled to commence in the second quarter of 1995. Depending on
the number of early retirees who are replaced, as of the date of this report and
as a result of this program, the Company anticipates savings in labor and
benefit costs in excess of $500,000 per year. Excluding the effects of the one-
time, non-monetary early retirement provision, first quarter 1995 operating and
net losses would have been approximately $5.4 million and $6.3 million. This
represents a decrease of $1.1 million over both first quarter 1994 operating and
net losses of $6.5 million and $7.4 million, respectively.

* In thousands

Operating revenues totalled $75.5 million during the first quarter of 1995,
compared to $71.0 million during the same period in 1994.

Revenues from Interisland passenger service totalled $31.0 million during first
quarter 1995, an increase of $1.9 million or 6.5% from first quarter 1994.
Increases of 7.2% and 8.0% in Interisland passengers carried and revenue
passenger miles, respectively, were offset by a decrease in Interisland yield of
0.3% or 1.2%. Increases in revenue passengers carried, revenue passenger miles
and available seat miles were a direct result of 1) the utilization of thirteen
DC-9-50 aircraft during the first quarter of 1995 versus four DHC-7 and, on
average nine DC-9-50 aircraft in the first quarter of 1994; 2) increased
passenger counts due to newly implemented operational concepts such as the
Hawaiian Airlines Island Shuttle from Honolulu to Maui and Kauai; and 3) use of
promotional fare ticket programs. However, the promotional fare ticket programs
were also the primary cause of dilution in first quarter 1995 Interisland yield.

-10-
<PAGE>

Revenues from Transpac passenger operations amounted to $30.3 million during the
first quarter of 1995 compared to $32.0 million in the first quarter of 1994, a
decrease of $1.7 million or 5.3%. Again, increases of 4.6% and 3.7% in revenue
passengers carried and revenue passenger miles, respectively, were offset by a
decrease of 0.6% or 9.4% in Transpac yield. The decrease in yield was primarily
caused by continued downward pressure on fares due to charter operators in the
Transpacific market.

Overseas charter revenues of $3.6 million were earned in the first quarter of
1995 due to the commencement of charter operations between Honolulu, Hawaii and
Las Vegas, Nevada in conjunction with a Hawaii tour operator.

</TABLE>

Operating expenses totalled $82.9 million in the first quarter of 1995, an
increase of $5.5 million or 7.1% over the first quarter of 1994.

-11-
<PAGE>

Wages and benefits increased $1.6 million or 6.3% in 1995. The increase is
primarily attributable to an increase in wage rates effective September 1, 1994
ranging from 5.0% to 6.7%, together with a 9.1% increase in seat miles flown,
offset by a significant improvement in productivity.

Maintenance materials and repairs increased $2.8 million or 27.5% over 1994. In
first quarter 1995, the Company incurred approximately $4.3 million less in DHC-
7 and L-1011 aircraft maintenance expense as these aircraft were phased out
throughout 1994. The decrease was offset by increased maintenance expense of
$7.3 million associated with the Company's DC-10-10 wide-body aircraft.

Aircraft fuel, including taxes and oil increased by $2.2 million or 21.6%
quarter over quarter. The average cost per gallon increased by 2.1 CENTS or
3.8% in the first quarter of 1995 versus the first quarter of 1994. Further,
the Company consumed approximately 3.0 million or 17.5% more gallons of aircraft
fuel due to increased frequencies in first quarter 1995 as compared to first
quarter 1994.

Aircraft rentals decreased by $4.7 million or 55.3% in 1995. The decrease was a
net result of 1) $6.6 million less in aircraft rents due to the phase out of L-
1011 and DHC-7 aircraft throughout 1994 and 2) $1.9 million more in aircraft
rents for DC-10-10 aircraft.

Advertising and promotion increased $1.3 million or 162.5% over first quarter
1994. The increase was due to a conscious effort by management to increase the
Company's exposure through advertising and promotional media.

As mentioned above, 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.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-
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.

The Statement 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.

ANNEX VI
EXCERPTS FROM THE COMPANY'S ANNUAL REPORT ON
FORM 10-K FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

INTRODUCTION

The airline industry has been, and continues to be, suffering poor financial
operating results. Aggregate losses of the U.S. airline industry during the
past five years have exceeded the total of all cumulative profits from its
inception. Since the commencement of deregulation in 1978, the airline
industry has become extremely competitive and volatile. Increased
competition, rising operational costs and pricing pressures have created
financial difficulties for most airlines and many airlines have been
acquired, forced to restructure or ceased operations. Signs of recovery are
still moderate. The Air Transport Association projects that despite record
traffic, the airline industry will post a loss of approximately $100.0
million in 1994.

As with other airlines, Hawaiian Airlines has been adversely affected by
these conditions. 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., commenced reorganization cases
by filing voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the
U.S. Code in Bankruptcy Court. Concurrently therewith, the Debtors filed a
Consolidated Plan of Reorganization dated September 21, 1993, which was
amended on March 5, 1994, May 6, 1994, August 29, 1994, November 2, 1994 and
February 16, 1995. On August 30, 1994, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court entered an
order confirming the Plan and with the satisfaction of certain conditions,
the Plan became effective on September 12, 1994 with all of the outstanding
common, preferred and preference stock of the Debtors being cancelled.
Pursuant to the Plan, on the Effective Date, HAL, INC. and West Maui Airport,
Inc. were merged with and into Hawaiian Airlines with Hawaiian Airlines being
the sole surviving corporation.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The airline industry is a highly cyclical business with substantial
volatility, and airlines frequently experience short-term peak cash
requirements caused by both seasonal fluctuations in traffic that often put a
drain on cash during off-peak periods and other exogenous factors, such as
fuel price fluctuations or unexpected maintenance costs. Accordingly,
airlines require substantial working capital to sustain continued operations
under most conditions. The Company has operated with limited cash and cash
equivalents and a working capital deficit for a number of years. Working
capital deficits are not uncommon in the airline industry since airlines
typically have no product inventories and sales not yet flown are reflected
as current liabilities.

On the Effective Date, the Company recognized an extraordinary gain of $190.1
million representing the relief of approximately $204.7 million in
prepetition liabilities net of offsets and certain prepetition liabilities
which survived. However, as of December 31, 1994, the Reorganized Company had
a net working capital deficit of $45.8 million. The net working capital
deficit as of December 31, 1994 represents a $4.6 million increase from the
net working capital deficit of $41.2 million at December 31, 1993. The
deterioration in the Company's working capital position at December 31, 1994
from that at December 31, 1993 is due to a combination of the following:

- - - In relation to current assets, increases in accounts receivable, assets
held for sale, and prepaid expenses of $2.0 million, $1.6 million and
$2.2 million, respectively, being

-1-

<PAGE>

offset by decreases in cash and cash equivalents of $800,000 and
inventories of $5.3 million;

- - - In relation to current liabilities, increases in current portion of
long-term debt, current portion of capital lease obligations, air
traffic liability and accrued liabilities of $4.2 million, $2.9 million,
$10.3 million and $1.0 million, respectively, reduced by decreases in
accounts payable of $14.1 million.

On the Effective Date, credit facility borrowings were made by the
Reorganized Company under a financing arrangement with CIT Group/Credit
Finance, Inc. ("CIT"). The financing arrangement was approved by the
Bankruptcy Court on July 27, 1994 and consists of a credit facility of up to
$8.15 million consisting of a secured revolving credit facility including up
to $3.0 million of letters of credit (the "Financing"). On the Effective
Date of the Plan, $2.0 million of the revolving credit facility and $3.0
million of letters of credit were funded to the Reorganized Company.
Available credit is subject to reduction determined by recalculation of the
borrowing base and repayments arising from disposition of collateral. As of
the date of this report, the amount of the facility had been effectively
reduced to approximately $5.5 million, which amount was approximately fully
drawn in the form of $3.4 million in borrowings and $2.1 million in letters
of credit. The Financing contains certain restrictive covenants one of which
requires a minimum net worth. Effective April 13, 1995, the minimum required
net worth covenant was reduced from $28.0 million to $20.0 million.

In order to increase liquidity, the Company has also engaged in a series of
promotional ticket sale activities. As of the date of this report, another
such promotional activity is in progress. Such promotional activities
increase liquidity, but also increase air traffic liability which could
affect revenues and liquidity in future periods. Liquidity was further
enhanced when 1) in December 1994, $3.0 million of letters of credit issued
under the Financing and held by the Airline Reporting Corporation were
supplanted with a letter of credit of $100,000, effectively increasing the
availability of the revolving credit facility, as required under the
Financing and 2) in March 1995, $3.6 million in fuel facility notes
receivable held by the Company were collected with $1.5 million of the
proceeds reducing borrowings under the Financing and $2.1 million reverting
back to the Company.

Notwithstanding the above, since the Effective Date, the Company has
continued to experience liquidity shortfalls. On October 31, 1994, the
Company failed to timely make certain payments due to American pursuant to
the long-term Aircraft Lease Agreement entered into on the Effective Date.
American sent the Company notice of the failure to make rent and prepaid
maintenance payments, 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 lease, repossession of aircraft and
engines, recovery of damages and drawings under the letters of credit. The
Company subsequently made the rent and prepaid maintenance payments due
American on November 4 and November 15, 1994, respectively. In December 1994
and January, February and March 1995 the Company again failed to timely make
certain full payments due pursuant to the long-term Aircraft Lease Agreement.
Again, while American sent the Company notice of the failure to make such
full rent and prepaid maintenance payments, American did not declare the
Aircraft Lease Agreement in default or exercise any of the remedies available
to it.

Effective April 13, 1995, the Company and American executed an amendment to
the long-term Aircraft Lease Agreement providing for the deferral of payment
of approximately $11.1 million of delinquent lease rents and maintenance
payments. The amendment provides that the Company is to remit periodic
payments (generally on a weekly basis) to American commencing March 31, 1995
and ending December 22, 1995, in amounts ranging from

-2-

<PAGE>

approximately $25,000 to $950,000, including interest at 10.0% per annum,
plus payments for the basic rent of aircraft. Maintenance payments will also
be payable weekly, but in the same aggregate amounts as set forth in the
original terms of the long-term Aircraft Lease Agreement. Thereafter,
commencing January 5, 1996, the Company is required to pay, weekly in
advance, the basic rent payments owed for the aircraft and maintenance
payments in respect of the aircraft.

The Company currently does not have access to other unutilized credit
facilities and, since there are no remaining unencumbered assets, its
access to additional sources of liquidity remains limited. The Company is
seeking other possible sources of external financing, but unless it is
successful in these efforts, there may continue to be liquidity shortfalls in
the future.

The financial statements at December 31, 1994, 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. As
discussed herein, the Company has continued to experience net and operating
losses post Effective Date. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that the
Company will succeed in solving its liquidity problems or that the Company
will have sufficient cash resources to support its continued operations.
Because of the Company's liquidity shortfall, an adverse change in events and
circumstances outside the control of management could result in the Company
being unable to meet its financial obligations. 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 the uncertainties
discussed herein. 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.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

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 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 totalled $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 totalled $119.8 million during
1994, an increase of $1.3 million or 1.1% from 1993 Interisland passenger
revenues of $118.5 million. Increases of 7.5% and 8.5% in Interisland
passengers carried and revenue passenger miles, respectively, were offset by
a decrease in Interisland yield of 1.8CENTS or 6.7%. Increases in revenue
passengers carried, revenue passenger miles and available seat miles were a
direct result of 1) the utilization of thirteen DC-9-50 aircraft during a
majority of 1994 versus four DHC-7 and, on average nine DC-9-50 aircraft in
1993; and 2) increased passenger counts due to the overall increase in Hawaii
tourism year over year and, newly implemented operational concepts such as
the Island Shuttle 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 0.4CENTS
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

-5-

<PAGE>

direct result of the Company completing in 1994 its transition to an all
DC-10-10 aircraft fleet from an all L-1011 fleet. In their current
configuration, at full load, the DC-10-10 on average accommodates thirty five
less 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 0.1CENTS 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-10-10 aircraft fleet in 1994.
Southpac yields increased due to the downsized operations of a competitor in
the Southpac market in 1994.

Transpac cargo revenues increased by $1.6 million or 26.1% 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 2.5CENTS or 6.4%.

Overseas charter revenues decreased by $5.6 million or 91.0% upon comparison
of 1994 to 1993. A majority of the decrease is associated with the
Predecessor 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.

<PAGE>

Operating expenses totalled $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 5.0% to 6.7% wage increases effective September 1,
1994.

Aircraft fuel, including taxes and oil decreased by $2.1 million or 4.2% from
$49.8 in 1993 to $47.7 million in 1994. In addition to a $0.05 or 7.6%
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
DC-10-10 aircraft transitioned in 1994.

Aircraft rentals decreased by $5.4 million or 18.4%, of which $4.1 million
represents decreased rents due to DC-9-50 aircraft operating under capital
versus operating leases in 1994 and other DC-9-50 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-9-50 aircraft landings and wide-body aircraft
landings of $1.4 million and $900,000, respectively, were experienced in
1994. Such increases were due to 1) increased landing fee rates in Hawaii and
Los Angeles, California and 2) increased frequency due to implementation of
the Island Shuttle, schedule changes to Los Angeles, California and Las
Vegas, Nevada and commencement of scheduled service to Portland, Oregon.

Advertising and promotion totaled $4.9 million in 1994, an increase of $1.8
million or 57.1% 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 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.

-7-

<PAGE>

Interrupted trip expense decreased by $2.0 million or 49.1% 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 Statement of Position
("SOP") 90-7, "Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the
Bankruptcy Code", as reorganization expenses during the year 1994.

Restructuring charges in 1993 represent the Predecessor's provision for the
anticipated return and termination of five of its DC-9-50 aircraft in the
second quarter of 1993.

NONOPERATING INCOME (EXPENSE)

Reorganization expenses in 1994 totaled $14.0 million and principally
represents $5.7 million in legal and professional fees associated with the
Predecessor's Chapter 11 process and $8.3 million in fresh start adjustments
recorded on the Effective Date in accordance with SOP 90-7.

Reorganization expenses in 1993 of $52.6 million primarily consists 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 $0.8 million in legal and professional fees.

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.

The $12.1 million extraordinary item in 1993 represents a one-time
non-monetary gain due to the reduction in the net accrued pension benefit
obligation of the Predecessor. Effective October 1, 1993, the IAM and
salaried employee defined benefit pension plans were frozen with no future
pay or credited service increases.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-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.

The Statement 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.

-8-

<PAGE>

The Statement 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 the Statement in 1996. Restatement of previously
issued financial statements is not permitted. The Company has not estimated
the impact that adoption of the Statement is expected to have on its
financial statements.

1993 COMPARED TO 1992

INTRODUCTION

In 1993 the Predecessor incurred a net loss of $69.4 million versus net
income of $29.0 million in 1992.

The net loss recorded in 1993 includes $52.6 million of reorganization
expenses, representing $51.8 million in estimated costs associated with the
anticipated rejection of certain aircraft leases, including the Predecessor's
L-1011 and DHC-7 fleet types and $800,000 in professional fees, and an
extraordinary gain of $12.1 million representing a one-time non-monetary gain
from the reduction in its net accrued pension benefit obligation. The net
income of 1992 contains a nonoperating gain of $41.7 million arising from the
sale of the Predecessor's Honolulu to Fukuoka, Japan Route ("Fukuoka Route"
or "Northpac") to Northwest and an extraordinary gain of approximately $106.6
million resulting from the Predecessor's debt restructuring with the Bank of
America, National Trust and Savings Association (the "Bank") pursuant to the
1992 restructuring transactions. The gain on the Fukuoka Route sale
represents the reversal of the operating expenses previously accrued and
recorded by the Predecessor during the period (May 13, 1991 through September
28, 1992) it operated the Fukuoka Route under a wet lease arrangement with
Northwest. The operating expenses accrued were forgiven by Northwest at the
date of the Fukuoka Route transfer, as was a $7.0 million loan, and accrued
interest thereon, which had previously been extended to the Predecessor and
secured by the Fukuoka Route. The extraordinary gain on the Bank debt
restructuring was generated when the Bank cancelled indebtedness of
approximately $80.0 million and surrendered for cancellation its warrant to
purchase approximately 8.0% of the Predecessor's stock on a fully-diluted
basis and all of the outstanding shares of the Predecessor's Class C Senior
Preferred Stock, which had a liquidation preference of approximately $54.0
million and certain rights to mandatory redemption. The gains arising from
both of these transactions did not result in any cash flow to the Predecessor
although the Bank debt cancellation saved the Predecessor substantial future
debt payments and preferred stock redemption obligations.

The Predecessor's operating loss in 1993 decreased to $24.8 million from
$111.0 million in 1992. Included in the 1993 operating loss were one-time
noncash restructuring charges due to the accruals of $14.0 million in
provisions for the early return during 1993 of five of its DC-9-50 aircraft.
Included in its 1992 operating loss was a one-time noncash $7.5 million
charge to write-off an intangible asset ("favorable operating leases"), and a
$26.6 million loss from the operation of the Fukuoka Route which likewise did
not result in cash outflow. The Predecessor also recorded restructuring
charges of approximately $29.2 million in the fourth quarter of 1992 which
consisted primarily of a $23.0 million reserve for the potential costs
associated with the early termination and return of the Predecessor's DC-8
aircraft to its lessors. Of the remaining restructuring costs of $6.2
million, $5.3 million pertained to the write-down of DC-8 parts inventory to
their net realizable value and the write-off of capitalized improvements made
to the DC-8's, $646,000 to severance compensation and the remainder to the
write-down of DC-9-15 parts. Without such nonrecurring and noncash items and

-9-

<PAGE>

restructuring costs, the Predecessor's 1993 and 1992 operating losses would
have been $10.8 million and $47.7 million, respectively.

For purposes of comparing the operating results during 1993 to those of 1992,
revenue and expenses are presented to include and exclude those relating to
the Predecessor's operation of the Fukuoka Route. This method more fairly
presents the true financial comparability of the two years as Northwest
ultimately bore the risks and sustained the economic losses associated with
the Fukuoka Route during the entire period it was operated by the Predecessor
as explained below.

Operating revenues totaled $304.1 million during 1993 compared to $395.1
million in 1992 representing a decrease of $91.0 million or 23.0%. Included
in the 1992 amounts are operating revenues for the Fukuoka Route of $63.3
million. Without the operating revenue from the Fukuoka Route, operating
revenues totaled $331.8 million during 1992.

Interisland revenues decreased $9.8 million or 6.9% in 1993 to $132.1 million
from $141.9 million in 1992. Passenger revenues from interisland operations
totaled $118.5 million as compared to $123.8 million during 1993 versus 1992
representing a decease of $5.3 million or 4.3%. Enplaned passengers
decreased 6.1% during 1993 to 3,385,609 from 3,604,397 in 1992 primarily due
to the overall decline in tourism to the State of Hawaii. Available seat
miles decreased 17.8% in 1993 from 936,635,139 in 1992 to 770,171,943 in 1993
due to conscious efforts by the Predecessor to decrease overcapacity in early
1993. Due to these efforts, Interisland passenger load factor increased by
12.6% to 57.0% in 1993 versus 50.6% in 1992 based on 438,979,203 revenue
passenger miles in 1993 compared to 473,674,552 revenue passenger miles in
1992. The $3.3 million decrease in Interisland charter revenues resulted
from the termination of an Interisland space block agreement with Japan
Airlines Co., Ltd. in 1993.

-11-

<PAGE>

Passenger yields increased to 27.0CENTS per revenue passenger mile in 1993
versus 26.1CENTS per revenue passenger mile in 1992.

Transpac revenues increased $12.0 million or 9.0% in 1993 to $145.3 million
from $133.3 million in 1992. Passenger revenues from scheduled Transpac
operations amounted to $136.5 million during 1993 compared to $126.0 million
1992, an increase of $10.5 million or 8.3%. The Predecessor enplaned 884,634
passengers during 1993 as opposed to 857,389 during 1992, reflecting the
Predecessor's continued emphasis on using its long range aircraft for
scheduled passenger service versus charter service on long haul routes.
Available seat miles increased to 2,784,980,544 in 1993 from 2,669,975,351 in
1992 or 4.3%. During 1993, passenger yields increased by 3.4% to 6.0CENTS from
5.8CENTS in 1992. Passenger load factor remained relatively static at 81.1%
in 1993 compared to 82.3% in 1992. Freight revenue increased 19.6% from
$5.1 million in 1992 to $6.1 million in 1993 as a result of management's focus
on its Transpac freight operations and marketing.

Southpac revenues decreased 39.1% in 1993 to $20.4 million from $33.5 million
in 1992. Southpac passenger revenues totaled $18.3 million during 1993
versus $29.2 million in 1992, a decrease of $10.9 million or 37.3%. The
decrease resulted from a decline in passenger yields from 11.3CENTS in 1992 to
10.5CENTS in 1993. Available seat miles decreased to 294,983,004 in 1993 from
459,959,984 in 1992 or 35.9% due to the discontinuation of several
unprofitable scheduled Southpac routes in 1993. As a consequence, freight
revenue also decreased 53.7% from $4.1 million in 1992 to $1.9 million in
1993.

In 1992, Northpac passenger revenues resulted from the Predecessor's wet
lease operation of its Fukuoka Route. Revenues generated from this route
totaled $63.3 million during 1992. Passenger revenues totaled $63.1 million
during 1992 while passenger yield equalled 16.1CENTS. Northpac yield included
sales rebates to purchasers of tickets in Japan reported to the Predecessor
by Northwest as commission.

Overseas charter revenues declined by $16.8 million or 72.7% during 1993 to
$6.3 million versus $23.1 million in 1992, reflecting the continuation of the
Predecessor's strategic plan to deploy its long range aircraft in scheduled
Transpac service. The $6.3 million of overseas charter revenues primarily
represents ad hoc charters performed by the Predecessor in 1993 and $3.9
million received from the Military Airlift Command in May 1993 following the
settlement with the Predecessor on its claim for additional compensation for
charter operations during Desert Storm and Desert Shield in 1991 and 1990.

Operating expenses totaled $328.9 million during 1993, down $177.2 million
from $506.1 million in 1992. Included in the 1992 amounts are operating
expenses applicable to the Fukuoka Route totaling $89.9 million. Operating
expenses, exclusive of the Fukuoka Route, totaled $416.2 million during 1992.
In addition, included in 1993 operating expenses is $14.0 million of
restructuring charges due to the early return of five DC-9-50 aircraft.
Similarly, included in 1992 operating expense is $29.2 million of
restructuring charges primarily related to the Predecessor's decision in the
fourth quarter of 1992 to eliminate its DC-8 fleet.

Wages and benefits decreased $10.8 million from $112.1 million during 1992 to
$101.3 million in 1993 representing a decrease of 9.6%. In conjunction with
the overall decrease in the average number of employees in 1993 versus 1992,
the decrease is primarily attributable to approximately $5.5 million in
payroll and related costs associated with the operation of DC-8 aircraft in
1992 and the incurrence of $5.0 million in employee stock option plan expense
in 1992.

Aircraft fuel, including taxes and oil, totaled $49.8 million during 1993
versus $64.8 million during 1992 representing a decrease of $15.0 million or
23.2%. In 1993, fuel usage decreased by 19.6% from 93.3 million gallons in
1992 to 74.9 million gallons in 1993. Also, the average price per gallon
decreased to $0.66 in 1993 from $0.70 in 1992, a decrease of $0.04 or 5.7%.

Maintenance materials and repairs decreased $25.8 million to $41.0 million in
1993 from $66.8 million in 1992. This 38.6% decrease is due to 1) $13.5
million of DC-8 maintenance costs incurred in 1992; 2) reduced DC-9-50
maintenance expense of $4.9 million due to a reduced fleet and less flight
hours flown during 1993 versus 1992; and 3) related reductions in material
costs.

Aircraft rentals decreased from $91.8 million in 1992 to $29.3 million in
1993 representing a $62.5 million or a 68.1% decrease. Of this decrease,
$47.6 million relates to the Fukuoka Route wet lease rentals for 1992. In
addition, $14.3 million of the decrease is attributable to 1) $10.0 million
in DC-8 rents being provided for in 1992 upon finalization of the decision to
phase out these aircraft from scheduled service in 1992; 2) $1.4 million in
decreased DC-9-50 aircraft rents under amended lease terms; and 3) $2.9
million in DC-9-50 rents being provided for in the second quarter of 1993 in
connection with the recordation of a $14.0 million reserve for the return of
these aircraft.

Purchased services decreased by $2.4 million during 1993 or 11.9%, of which
$1.6 million and $800,000 are attributable to ground handling services
associated with the Fukuoka Route and decreased ground handling charges
incurred from other vendors, respectively.

Sales commissions totaled $11.2 million during 1993 versus $53.8 million during
1992. Of the $42.6 million decrease, $40.6 million of sales commissions related
to the Fukuoka Route in 1992. The remaining decrease of $2.0 million is due to
less enplaned passengers primarily in the Predecessor's Interisland operations.

Personnel expense decreased $2.9 million during 1993 as opposed to 1992
primarily as a result of the Predecessor's continual shift to scheduled
service from charter operations which substantially reduced the cost of
flight crew scheduling changes, transportation, meals and accommodations.

Advertising and promotion decreased by $4.9 million or 61.0% from 1992 to
1993 reflecting the Predecessor's decreased marketing activity due to its
financial condition during 1993.

<PAGE>

During 1993, the Predecessor returned or terminated the respective leases
under five of its DC-9-50 aircraft and provided for $14.0 million in
anticipated aircraft rental and return costs. As part of the Predecessor's
restructuring of its operations in the last quarter of 1992, the Predecessor
provided for approximately $23.0 million in anticipated aircraft rental and
return costs for its six DC-8 aircraft, $5.6 million for the write-down to
net realizable value of DC-8 aircraft improvements and deferred charges and
approximately $650,000 in severance cost related to scheduled personnel
reductions. In addition, approximately $7.5 million of favorable operating
leases were completely written down to reflect the changes in the economic
value of the restructured lease terms.

NONOPERATING INCOME (EXPENSE)

Net interest expense decreased $6.5 million to $4.7 million in 1993 from
$11.2 million in 1992. This decrease was due primarily to the Predecessor's
financial restructuring of its Canadian Government and Bank debt in July and
November 1992, respectively. Included in nonoperating income (expense) in
the third quarter of 1992 is a $41.7 million gain on the transfer of the
Predecessor's Fukuoka Route to Northwest. Reorganization expense in 1993 of
$52.6 million primarily consists of $51.8 million of estimated costs for the
anticipated phase-out of the Predecessor's L-1011 and DHC-7 fleet types.
Included in this amount is approximately $47.1 million in anticipated
aircraft rental and return costs and $4.7 million for the write-off of
related flight equipment leasehold improvements. The remainder of the
reorganization expense of $800,000 primarily relates to legal fees.

EXTRAORDINARY ITEMS

The $12.1 million extraordinary item in 1993 represents a one-time
non-monetary gain representing the actuarial equivalent of the reduction in
the net accrued pension benefit obligation of the Predecessor as of September
30, 1993. The gain results from the cessation of future pay and credited
service increases in the actuarial formulas used to derive the pension
benefit obligation. The IAM defined benefit pension plan was frozen
effective October 1, 1993 upon ratification of the new IAM collective
bargaining unit agreement on September 8, 1993. The salaried employee defined
benefit pension plan was also frozen effective October 1, 1993.

The Predecessor recognized a $2.2 million gain in the third quarter of 1992
arising from the restructuring of the Predecessor's debt with the Canadian
Government applicable to certain DHC-7 aircraft. As previously discussed,
the Predecessor recognized a $106.6 million gain in the fourth quarter of
1992 resulting from the Predecessor's debt restructuring with the Bank.

CUMULATIVE EFFECT OF CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE

On January 1, 1992, the Predecessor adopted the provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 "Accounting For Income Taxes" and in
accordance with these provisions, elected to reflect the change in accounting
principle without restating the effects of adoption under prior years'
financial statements. The cumulative effect of the change in accounting
principle was a tax benefit of approximately $2.2 million in the first
quarter of 1992.

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, 1994 and 1993, and the related statements of operations,
shareholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the period September 12,
1994 through December 31, 1994, the period January 1, 1994 through September 11,
1994, and for each of the years in the two-year period 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, 1994 and 1993, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the period September 12, 1994 through December 31, 1994, the period
January 1, 1994 through September 11, 1994, and for each of the years in the
two-year period 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. Furthermore, as discussed in
note 4 to the financial statements, the Company changed its method of
accounting for income taxes in 1992.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that
Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. will continue as a going concern. As discussed in
note 14 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 14. 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. CHAPTER 11 REORGANIZATION

On September 21, 1993 (the "Petition Date"), Hawaiian Airlines together with
HAL, INC., Hawaiian Airlines' parent company, and West Maui Airport, Inc.,
another wholly owned subsidiary of HAL, INC., (collectively the "Debtors" or
"Predecessor") commenced reorganization cases by filing voluntary petitions for
relief under Chapter 11, Title 11 ("Chapter 11") of the United States (the
"U.S.") Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Hawaii (the
"Bankruptcy Court"). Concurrently therewith, the Debtors filed a Consolidated
Plan of Reorganization dated September 21, 1993 (as amended on March 5, 1994,
May 6, 1994, August 29, 1994, November 2, 1994 and February 16, 1995, the
"Plan"). By order dated May 10, 1994, the Debtors received Bankruptcy Court
approval of their disclosure statement for soliciting acceptances of the Plan,
and commenced solicitation on May 13, 1994. In the balloting completed on June
13, 1994 the class of creditors holding general unsecured claims and the class
comprised of holders of Class B Preference Stock interests both failed to
approve the Plan. On August 30, 1994, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order
confirming the Plan and with the satisfaction of certain conditions, the Plan
became effective on September 12, 1994 (the "Effective Date"). Due to the
aforementioned voting results on the Plan, on the Effective Date, all of the
outstanding equity securities of the Debtors were cancelled, including without
limitation, all outstanding common, preferred and preference stock of HAL, INC.

Pursuant to the Plan, on the Effective Date, first West Maui Airport, Inc. and
then HAL, INC. were merged with and into Hawaiian Airlines with Hawaiian
Airlines (the "Reorganized Company" or the "Company") being the sole surviving
corporation. All unsecured creditors with allowed claims (except with respect
to certain immaterial claims and claims relating to assumed executory
contracts) will receive Reorganized Company common stock in consideration for
their allowed claims. Generally, secured creditors amended the terms of their
existing indebtedness, but retained a security interest in the collateral that,
at the Effective Date, secured their claims.

The Plan contemplated that the Reorganized Company would issue approximately
9,400,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, and warrants and
options to purchase an additional 1,589,011 shares of such common stock. A
portion of the shares to be distributed to general unsecured creditors
(currently estimated at 3,212,927 shares) will be held pending resolution of
disputed claims. As disputed claims are finally resolved, the creditor holding
such claim will receive a distribution of stock. Any shares reserved in excess
of the amount distributed to such creditor will be held until all disputed
claims have been resolved. Upon resolution of all disputed claims, there will
be a final distribution of shares to all general unsecured creditors on a pro
rata basis.

Under the Plan, the shares of new common stock were to be distributed by
December 12, 1994. By order entered December 15, 1994, the Reorganized Company
received approval from the Bankruptcy Court to postpone distribution of the
Reorganized Company's new common stock as originally contemplated under the
Plan. By order entered March 14, 1995, the Reorganized Company received a
second extension from the Bankruptcy Court to postpone the distribution of the
Reorganized Company's new common stock. The Reorganized Company now
anticipates that its shares of new common stock will be distributed during the
second quarter of 1995.

F-9

<PAGE>

The Reorganized Company postponed the distribution for two reasons. First, the
Company had received very few completed Letters of Distribution Request (which
all claimants are required to return to the Distribution Agent under the Plan
in order to receive their distributions of new common stock) from holders of
allowed claims so that very few distributions could be made. Second, the
Reorganized Company was concerned that it could have been required to make
distributions to claimants who are not citizens of the U.S. that could have
resulted in Hawaiian Airlines failing to be a citizen of the U.S. as defined in
Section 40102 of the Transportation Act (49 U.S.C. Section 40102).

In order to hold a Section 401 Certificate which is necessary for Hawaiian
Airlines to carry on its business as a provider of interstate and foreign
scheduled air transportation, Hawaiian Airlines must be a citizen of the U.S.
In order for Hawaiian Airlines to be deemed a citizen of the U.S. for these
purposes, the president and at least two-thirds of the board of directors and
other managing officers must be citizens of the U.S., and at least 75.0% of the
voting interest must be owned and controlled by persons that are citizens of
the U.S.

Accordingly, the Reorganized Company has filed with the Bankruptcy Court a
motion seeking approval of an amendment to the Plan which the Reorganized
Company believes will enable it to satisfy the citizenship test of the
Transportation Act and still make all contemplated distributions under the
Plan. The amendment would accomplish this by bifurcating the new common stock
into two classes, one with limited voting rights ("Class B Common Stock") and
the other with full voting rights ("Class A Common Stock"). The Company has
asked the holders of the two largest general unsecured claims entitled to
receive stock to accept Class B Common Stock for the distribution due them
under the Plan. If they agree, then all other claimants entitled to receive
distributions in stock under the Plan would receive shares of Class A Common
Stock. If they do not agree, then non-U.S. citizens holding general unsecured
claims would receive a portion of their distribution in shares of Class A
Common Stock and a portion in shares of Class B Common Stock. The number of
shares of Class A Common Stock to be distributed to them would be determined to
assure that after giving effect to the distributions, non-U.S. citizens would
not hold more than 24.0% of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock.
The balance of their distribution would be made in shares of Class B Common
Stock. All distributions to other claimants entitled to receive distributions
in stock under the Plan would be made in shares of Class A Common Stock. The
Company believes that the issuance of shares of Class B Common Stock in either
of the foregoing manners will enable the Reorganized Company to meet the
citizenship test described above.

Because implementation of the proposed amendment requires several Bankruptcy
Court hearings and determinations, as well as either an agreement with the
holders of the two claims who would agree to receive shares of Class B Common
Stock, or, failing such agreement, a solicitation of approval of the claimants
classified as non-U.S. citizens, it is impossible to determine when or whether
the Reorganized Company will succeed in such implementation. If the
Reorganized Company is unsuccessful in implementing the amendment, it may seek
Bankruptcy Court approval to make distributions to U.S. citizens and withhold
distributions to non-U.S. citizens or it may seek to implement alternative
strategies to enable distributions under the Plan. However, if the Reorganized
Company is unsuccessful in implementing any of the alternatives, distributions
of stock to all claimants may be delayed indefinitely.

The Reorganized Company's new common stock has been approved for listing on the
American Stock Exchange and Pacific Stock Exchange. The actual commencement of
trading, however, may be delayed depending on the timing of the distribution of
stock to general

F-10

<PAGE>

unsecured creditors. Because a significant amount (up to 42.5% of the stock
to be distributed to general unsecured creditors) may not be distributed
until most disputed claims have been resolved, and because significant
amounts of stock may be held in employee stock ownership plans, the trading
volume may be limited. By first distribution, the Reorganized Company
anticipates that approximately 28.9% of the disputed claims should be
resolved.

In connection with the satisfaction of legal requirements for confirmation of
the Plan, certain financial projections were furnished to the Bankruptcy Court.
The Reorganized Company will not update or comment further on such projections,
which were not intended to be, and should not be, relied upon by post-
reorganization investors in the Reorganized Company's common stock. As a
matter of policy, the Reorganized Company does not intend to publish
projections of future financial performance.

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, and may not necessarily be indicative of the value at
which the Reorganized Company's common shares may trade. 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 Reorganized Company has been reflected as
"Reorganization value in excess of amounts allocable to identifiable assets"
in the accompanying balance sheets.

The effects of the Plan and fresh start reporting in accordance with the
provisions of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement
of Position (the "SOP") 90-7, "Financial Reporting by Entities in
Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code" on the Reorganized Company's balance
sheet as of the Effective Date are as follows, in thousands:

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with
SOP 90-7 which was adopted by the Company effective September 22, 1993.

For periods during the Chapter 11 proceeding, prepetition liabilities which
were unsecured or estimated to be unsecured are classified as "Liabilities
Subject to Compromise." The accrual of interest on such liabilities was
discontinued for the period from September 22, 1993 to the Effective Date of
the Plan.

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 has been 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 1993 were valued at cost and amounted to $2.6 and $3.0
million, respectively.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value
because of the short maturity of those instruments. The fair value of short-
and long-term debt is based on rates negotiated with prepetition creditors and
approximates carrying value. Letters of credit had a fair value of
approximately $2.1 million. The fair values of the letters of credit were
based on the face value of the underlying instruments. See Note 7.

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 1993, the Company had approximately $13.4
million and $1.6 million, respectively, of expendable inventory parts and
rotable flight equipment held for sale internally or on a consignment basis
with a third party. In 1993, Assets held for sale were presented as a part of
Inventories and Nonoperating assets.

F-14

<PAGE>

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
Leasehold improvements . . . . . . . Shorter of lease term or useful 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 benefitted 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.

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 20.0 years. Accumulated amortization
at December 31, 1994 totalled approximately $1.1 million. 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.

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.

F-15

<PAGE>

INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

Income (loss) per share is based on the weighted average number of common stock
shares and common stock equivalents outstanding during each year.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-
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.

The Statement 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.

The Statement 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 the Statement in 1996. Restatement of previously
issued financial statements is not permitted. The Company has not estimated
the impact that adoption of the Statement is expected to have on its financial
statements.

4. CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING METHODS

Effective January 1, 1992, the Predecessor elected early adoption of Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes." The deferred tax liability recognized at January 1, 1992, as
calculated under SFAS No. 96, reflected the alternative minimum tax created by
the limitation on the Predecessor's net operating loss carryforwards. The
provisions of SFAS No. 109 minimized the effect of alternative minimum tax on
the measurement of the gross deferred tax liability. Accordingly, the
implementation of SFAS No. 109 eliminated the Predecessor's deferred tax
liability existing as of January 1, 1992.

The effect of the change in method of accounting for income taxes on net income
before cumulative effect of change in accounting principle for the year ended
December 31, 1992 was insignificant. The cumulative effect of the change in
method of accounting for income taxes on prior years was approximately $2.2
million.

6. LEASES

AIRCRAFT LEASES

Six DC-10-10 aircraft are leased under operating leases which expire in year
2001. A seventh DC-10-10 is leased under a short term operating lease which
expires in 1995. Seven and five 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 1994, 1993 and 1992 was $33.6, $36.6 million and $105.3 million
(including $47.6 million in 1992 related to the Northwest wet lease agreement,
see Note 17), respectively, net of sublease rental income from operating leases

In addition to scheduled future minimum lease payments, the Company is required
to prepay for monthly DC-10-10 maintenance services in accordance with the
American Airlines, Inc.-Registered- ("American") Long-Term Agreements, as
hereafter defined. The payments are based on estimated flight hours for the
month. For the period from September 12, 1994 to December 31, 1994, the
Company incurred $8.9 million in maintenance expenses under the Long-Term
Agreements.

As discussed in Notes 12, 13 and 14, prior to April 1995, the Company failed to
make certain payments due American under its lease arrangements. An amendment
to the long-term Aircraft Lease Agreement providing for the deferral of payment
of any remaining delinquent amounts owed by the Company over scheduled dates
throughout 1995 became effective April 13, 1995.

The net book value of property held under capital leases as of December 31,
1994 totalled $17.3 million.

Secured obligations due 1996-1999 are as follows:

* A note payable executed in 1994 in settlement of $6.0 million of
administrative claims related to unpaid prepetition L-1011 and DC-9-50
aircraft rents. The note is due in 1999, bears interest at 8.0% per annum
and is payable in monthly installments of principal and interest of
$121,658. At December 31, 1994, $5.8 million is outstanding;

* A secured note payable executed in 1992 pursuant to a settlement agreement
with the Government of Canada related to two DHC-7 aircraft and related
flight equipment. The note is due in 1996 and is payable in installments
of $50,000 per month. As the note bears no interest, interest has been
imputed as of the Effective Date at 10.0% per annum. As of December 31,
1994 and 1993, $1.0 million and $1.8 million were outstanding,
respectively;

* A secured note executed in 1993 for the purchase of a DC-9-50 aircraft
from a lessor. The mortgage note is due in 1999 and is payable in monthly
installments of principal and interest of $59,876. Interest accrues at
10.315% per annum. At December 31, 1994 and 1993, $2.6 million and $3.0
million were outstanding, respectively;

* On the Effective Date, credit facility borrowings were made by the
Reorganized Company under a financing arrangement with CIT Group/Credit
Finance, Inc. ("CIT"). The financing arrangement was approved by the
Bankruptcy Court on July 27, 1994 and consists of a credit facility of up
to $8.15 million consisting of a secured revolving credit facility
including up to $3.0 million of letters of credit (the "Financing"). On
the

F-19

<PAGE>

Effective Date of the Plan, $2.0 million of the revolving credit
facility and $3.0 million of letters of credit were funded to the
Reorganized Company. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility have
been recorded net of discount representing the estimated fair value of
issued warrants as discussed in Note 11. The Financing has a term of two
years and bears interest at the rate of prime plus 2.5% (11.0% at December
31, 1994). Available credit is subject to reduction determined by
recalculation of the borrowing base and repayments arising from
disposition of collateral. At December 31, 1994, $4.1 million and $2.1
million of borrowings and letters of credit, respectively, were
outstanding. The Financing contains certain restrictive covenants one of
which requires a minimum net worth. Effective April 13, 1995, the minimum
required net worth covenant was reduced from $28.0 million to $20.0
million. See Note 14.

Estimated tax obligations due 1995-2000 represent allowed priority tax claims
for various taxing jurisdictions, which in accordance with the provisions of
the Plan, bear interest at 7.0% per annum and are payable in twenty-four
quarterly installments commencing on the first through sixth anniversaries of
the Effective Date.

Unsecured notes payable due 1996-1997 are as follows:

* A note executed in 1994 in settlement of $4.7 million of administrative

installments of $100,000. The note bears no interest; however, interest
has been imputed at 10.0% per annum. As of December 31, 1994, $2.2
million was outstanding;

* A note executed in 1994 in settlement of $276,000 of administrative claims
related to unpaid L-1011 aircraft rents. The note is due in 1996 and is
payable in monthly principal installments of $11,518. At December 31,
1994, $254,000 remained outstanding. Interest accrues at prime plus 3.0%
per annum (11.5% at December 31, 1994).

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, following the Petition Date, 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 following, in

Airlift Command in May 1993 following a settlement with the Debtors on its
claim for additional compensation for charter operations during Operations
Desert Shield and Desert Storm in 1991 and 1990.

As part of the Predecessor's restructuring of its operations in the last
quarter of 1992, the Predecessor provided for approximately $23.0 million in
anticipated aircraft rental and return costs for its six DC-8 aircraft, $5.6
million for the write-down to net realizable value of DC-8 aircraft
improvements and deferred charges and approximately $650,000 in severance cost
related to scheduled personnel reductions. In addition, approximately $7.5
million of favorable operating leases were completely written down to reflect
the changes in the economic value of the restructured lease terms.

9. INCOME TAXES

In 1992, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 109. Under
the asset and liability method of SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets and
liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to
differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets
and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable
income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be
recovered or settled. Under SFAS No. 109, 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.

The Predecessor adopted SFAS No. 109 as of January 1, 1992. The cumulative
effect of this change in accounting for income taxes of $2.2 million was
determined as of January 1, 1992 and is reported separately in the statement of
operations for the year ended December 31, 1992.

As a result of net operating losses in the current year and net operating
losses carried forward from prior years, the Company and the Predecessor were
not required to provide for federal and state income taxes for 1994 and 1993.

The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions
of the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities at December 31, 1994
and 1993 are presented below, in thousands:

</TABLE>

The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of December 31, 1993 was
$66.4 million. The net change in the total valuation allowance for the year
ended December 31, 1994 was a decrease of $19.3 million.

As a result of the November 1992 debt restructuring and recapitalization
transaction, an ownership change of the Company occurred which resulted in a
limitation on the use of its net operating loss (and tax credit) carryforwards
pursuant to Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code. Consequently,
the Company's ability to utilize net operating loss and tax credit
carryforwards that arose prior to that ownership change is limited to $2.8
million annually ("Section 382 limitation"). Any part of the Section 382
limitation that is not utilized in a given year may be carried forward to the
next year and combined with that year's originating Section 382 limitation of
$2.8 million. Net operating loss carryforwards generated after the ownership
change resulting from the November 1992 restructuring, are not subject to the
Section 382 limitation, but were affected by the Company's Chapter 11
reorganization, as discussed below. After taking into account the reductions
in net operating loss carryforwards resulting from the November 1992 debt

F-23

<PAGE>

restructuring and recapitalization transaction, as of December 31, 1994 the
Company has approximately $44.8 million of net operating loss (and equivalent
tax credit) carryforwards attributable to the period prior to the November 1992
restructuring ("pre-November 1992 NOLs") that are subject to the Section 382
limitation.

The financial reorganization of the Company in 1994 resulted in the
cancellation of substantial debts of the Company. Such cancellation of
indebtedness can result in taxable income under the Internal Revenue Code equal
to the excess of the amount of debt canceled over the cash and fair market
value of property (including new stock of the Company) paid to the creditors.
However, the Internal Revenue Code provides that the cancellation of
indebtedness does not give rise to taxable income if the cancellation was
pursuant to a plan approved by the court in a bankruptcy case. Moreover, under
the judicial "stock-for-debt exception," as modified by Section 108 of the
Internal Revenue Code, the Company will not be required to reduce its net
operating loss and tax credit carryforwards as a result of the issuance of the
Company's new stock to creditors in connection with the Company's
reorganization, except as discussed below.

The Chapter 11 reorganization of the Company resulted in another "ownership
change" of the Company under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.
Ordinarily, an ownership change would result in a significant limitation on the
Company's ability to utilize its net operating loss carryforwards following the
ownership change. However, pursuant to the so-called "Section 382(l)(5)
bankruptcy exception," provided the Company's reorganization resulted in the
ownership of 50.0% or more of the Company's stock by "qualifying creditors" and
pre-change stockholders, the general limitations imposed by Section 382 will
not apply, but the Company's net operating loss carryforwards will be reduced
by (i) certain interest paid or accrued on indebtedness converted into stock
pursuant to the Plan and (ii) 50.0% of the excess of the amount of debt
canceled (other than debt incurred for interest described in (i)) over the
value of the Company's stock issued in exchange for the canceled debt.

If the Section 382(l)(5) bankruptcy exception applies and the Company undergoes
another ownership change within two years after the ownership change resulting
from its Chapter 11 reorganization, the Company would not be entitled to use
any net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards that accrued prior to such
subsequent ownership change to offset taxable income earned following such
ownership change. In addition, the Section 382(l)(5) bankruptcy exception will
not affect the limitations imposed on the Company's pre-November 1992 NOLs,
and therefore such pre-November 1992 NOLs will remain subject to the $2.8
million Section 382 limitation.

If the Company determines that the net operating loss reduction rules mandated
by the Section 382(l)(5) bankruptcy exception would seriously reduce the amount
of the Company's net operating loss carryforwards, or if there is a
significant possibility that the Company will undergo another ownership change
within the two-year period following the ownership change resulting from its
Chapter 11 reorganization, the Company may elect to be subject to the annual
limitation rules under Section 382(l)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code (the
"Section 382(l)(6) election"). Under this provision, the Company's ability to
utilize net operating loss and equivalent tax credit carryforwards in the
future will generally will be subject to an annual limitation (the "Section
382(l)(6) limitation") determined by multiplying the applicable long term tax-
exempt rate of 6.05% as of September 1994, by the lower of (1) the value of the
Company's assets immediately before the ownership change, determined without
regard to liabilities; or (2) the aggregate new stock value immediately after
the ownership change. If the Section 382(l)(6) election

F-24

<PAGE>

is made, the Company's net operating loss and credit carryforwards will not
be subject to the reductions mandated by the Section 382(l)(5) bankruptcy
exception, nor will there be a complete prohibition on the use of net
operating loss and credit carryforwards if the Company undergoes another
ownership change within the two-year period described above. Moreover, if
the Section 382(l)(6) election is made and the Section 382(l)(6) limitation
is greater than the $2.8 million Section 382 limitation discussed above, the
$2.8 million Section 382 limitation will continue to apply to the
pre-November 1992 NOLs.

After giving consideration to the provisions of Section 382(l)(5), the Company
has post-November 1992 net operating loss and equivalent investment tax credit
carryforwards of $49.1 million. Such amounts are in addition to the pre-
November 1992 NOLs, and if the Company decides not to make the Section
382(l)(6) election, such amounts would not be subject to limitation under
Section 382 until the occurrence of another ownership change. The Company's
net operating loss and credit carryforwards will expire in 2006 at the
earliest.

While it is anticipated that the Section 382(l)(5) bankruptcy exception would
be most advantageous, the Company has until September 15, 1995 to decide on
whether or not to make the Section 382(l)(6) election.

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.

10. BENEFIT PLANS

DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLANS

The Company has several pension plans covering substantially all of its
employees hired prior to September 1, 1992. Pilots and ground personnel are
covered under three defined benefit plans which provide benefits based
primarily on years of service and employee compensation near retirement. The
International Association of Machinists ("IAM") defined benefit pension plan
was frozen effective October 1, 1993 upon ratification of the new IAM
collective bargaining unit agreement. The salaried employee defined benefit
pension plan was also 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 Air Line Pilots Association ("ALPA") 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.

F-25

<PAGE>

The following table summarizes the funded status of the defined benefit plans
as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, in thousands:

</TABLE>

The projected benefit obligation was determined using an assumed weighted-
average discount rate of 8.25% and 7.25% for 1994 and 1993, respectively. At
December 31, 1994, the assumed weighted-average rate of compensation increase
was 4.50% for pilots and 0.00% for ground personnel. The assumed weighted-
average rate of compensation increase was 4.25% in 1993. The assumed weighted-
average expected long-term rate of return on plan assets was 9.0% for 1994 and
1993.

In the third quarter of 1994, ALPA further ratified certain funding assumption
changes to their 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 under the
Predecessor's Chapter 11 process; 2) payment by the Reorganized Company of the
pilots' pension plan investment and advisory fees and administrative expenses
in 1994 and 1995, with payments being limited to $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.

Subsequent to December 31, 1994, in the first quarter of 1995, an early out
retirement program has been offered by the Company to qualified participants of
the IAM and salaried defined benefit plans. As of the date of this report, the
Company is not able to determine the dollar adjustment required to its defined
benefit and postretirement obligations as a result of this program.

The net periodic pension cost in 1994 was determined using an assumed weighted-
average discount rate of 8.25% and 7.25% for the period from September 12, 1994
to December 31, 1994 and the period from January 1, 1994 to September 11, 1994,
respectively.

Fresh start adjustment of $8.3 million represents the net effect of fresh start
accounting, as applied by the Company in accordance with SOP 90-7, on the
pension benefit obligation as of September 12, 1994.

Curtailment gain of $12.1 million representing the actuarial equivalent of the
reduction in the net accrued pension benefit obligation as of September 30,
1993 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.

POSTRETIREMENT PLANS

In addition to providing pension benefits, the Company sponsors two 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 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 and
life insurance benefits in the year incurred.

The postretirement benefit plans' combined benefit obligations as of December
31, 1994 and 1993 are as follows, in thousands:

A weighted average discount rate of 8.25% and 7.25% was used for the period
from September 12, 1994 to December 31, 1994 and the period from January 1,
1994 to September 11, 1994, respectively.

For measurement purposes, a graded rate ranging from an initial rate of 15.0%
to a termination rate of 6.0% was used in the per capita cost of covered
medical benefits for the period from September 12, 1994 to December 31, 1994.
A graded rate ranging from an initial rate of 14.0% to a termination rate of
5.0% was used in the per capita cost of covered medical benefits for the period
from January 1, 1994 to September 11, 1994. 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,
1994, 1993 and 1992 by $3.7 million, $3.5 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 ended by $584,000,
$593,000 and $495,000, respectively.

OTHER

During September 1990, the Predecessor agreed to establish Employee Stock
Option Plans (the "ESOPs") as a part of the renegotiation of labor contracts
covering the pilots, flight attendants and other union represented employees.
In exchange for work rule changes and 10.0% wage rate reductions for the two-
year period commencing September 1, 1990, the Predecessor contributed 20.0% of
its common stock on a fully diluted basis to the tax-

F-29

<PAGE>

qualified ESOPs. The final increment of 220,931 shares was contributed on
January 2, 1992 and recorded as a $1.3 million charge to compensation expense
in 1992.

In 1992, the Predecessor agreed to contribute 425,000 shares of common stock to
the pilots 401(k) plan in exchange for revisions to work rules, shared health
care costs and a change in the interest rate assumption used for funding the
pilot's retirement plan. The Predecessor accrued an obligation of
approximately $3.5 million in 1992 based on the market price of the
Predecessor's common stock at the date of commitment. On August 12, 1993,
348,038 of such shares were issued.

In 1993 the Company entered into new collective bargaining agreements with the
IAM, ALPA, Association of Flight Attendants ("AFA") and Transport Workers Union
("TWU") and made certain changes to the compensation and benefits of salaried
employees. The new agreements and the changes for the salaried employees are
for a duration of three-and-a-half years. These new agreements contemplated
that the employees would have claims relating to these concessions which would
be satisfied through the issuance of the new common stock of the Reorganized
Company. See Note 1.

The Company also has 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 5.0% in 1994, 7.0% in 1993 and
6.25% in 1992, of defined compensation pursuant to the terms of the flight
attendants' plan. Effective January 1, 1994, the Company is required to
contribute an additional 2.0% to participants in the flight attendants' plan.
Contributions to the flight attendants' plan are funded currently and totalled
approximately $889,000, $868,000 and $832,000 in 1994, 1993 and 1992,
respectively. Effective September 1, 1993, in conjunction with the
modifications to IAM and salaried employees benefits, the Company was required
to contribute 2.0% of eligible earnings to the 401(k) plan for IAM and salaried
personnel. Effective September 1, 1994, the Company is required to contribute
4.0% of eligible earnings to the IAM 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 IAM and
salaried 401(k) plan totalled $1.1 million and $288,000 in 1994 and 1993,
respectively.

11. COMMON STOCK WARRANTS, RIGHTS AND OPTIONS

In conjunction with obtaining the Financing, $2.0 million of letters of credit
were provided by certain third parties as additional security for performance
of the Reorganized Company's obligations under the Financing. One such letter
of credit in the amount of $1.0 million is guaranteed by a Director of the
Reorganized Company. 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
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.

On December 1, 1994 the Board of Directors of the Company authorized adoption
of a shareholder rights plan pursuant to which there will be attached to each
share of common stock of the Reorganized Company one preferred stock purchase
right (a "Right"). The rights plan provides that in the event any person
becomes the beneficial owner of 10.0% or more of the outstanding common shares,
each Right (other than a Right held by the 10.0% shareholder) will be
exercisable, on and after the close of business on the tenth business day

F-30

<PAGE>

following such event, to purchase Hawaiian Airlines 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 right (other than
a 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
Rights expire on December 1, 2004 (unless previously triggered) and are subject
to redemption by the Company at $0.01 per Right at any time prior to the first
date upon which they become exercisable.

Pursuant to the terms of the Plan, 600,000 shares of the Reorganized Company's
new 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 Reorganized 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 under such
agreements covering substantially all of the 600,000 reserved shares. The
grant of such options is subject to approval of the 1994 Stock Option Plan by
shareholders of the Reorganized Company.

12. TRANSACTIONS WITH AMERICAN AND CERTAIN OF ITS AFFILIATES

On November 8, 1993, the Predecessor entered into a letter of intent as amended
from time to time with AMR Training & Consulting Group, Inc. ("AMRCG"), an
affiliate of American. As contemplated by the Letter, Hawaiian Airlines, Inc.
entered into a variety of agreements with AMRCG's affiliates (collectively, the
"Interim Agreements") 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. Pursuant to its participation in
the program, members who are redeeming mileage to fly to Hawaii or among the
islands may fly on Hawaiian Airlines (subject to space limitations) with
American paying Hawaiian Airlines an agreed fee for transporting such
passengers. In addition, passengers flying on Hawaiian Airlines can earn
AAdvantage-Registered Trademark- miles.

On September 12, 1994, long-term agreements with American and certain of its
affiliates (the "Long-Term Agreements") were entered into pursuant to the
confirmation of the Plan, and superseded the Interim Agreements. Services
provided under the Long-Term Agreements are substantially identical to those
services specified in the Interim Agreements and include the lease of six DC-10-
10 aircraft from American. In November 1994, an additional DC-10-10 aircraft
was leased by American to the Company on a a short-term basis, which lease has
been extended until April 30, 1995. At December 31, 1994, the obligations of
the Company under the Long-Term Agreements were secured by a $2.0 million
letter of credit issued under the Company's working capital line of credit.
See Note 7.

On October 31, 1994, the Company failed to timely make certain payments due to
American pursuant to the long-term Aircraft Lease Agreement entered into on the
Effective Date. American sent the Company notice of the failure to make rent
and prepaid maintenance payments, but did not declare the Aircraft Lease
Agreement in default or exercise any of the remedies, which include, but are
not limited to, termination of the lease, repossession of aircraft and engines,
recovery of damages and drawings under the letters of credit, available to it.
The Company subsequently made the rent and prepaid maintenance payments due
American on November 4 and November 15, 1994, respectively. In December 1994
and

F-31

<PAGE>

January, February and March 1995 the Company again failed to timely make
certain full payments due pursuant to the long-term Aircraft Lease Agreement.
Again, while American sent the Company notice of the failure to make such full
rent and prepaid maintenance payments, American did not declare the Aircraft
Lease Agreement in default or exercise any of the remedies available to it.

Certain additional payments were subsequently made by the Company to American
and effective April 13, 1995, the Company and American executed an amendment to
the long-term Aircraft Lease Agreement providing for the deferral of payment of
approximately $11.1 million of delinquent lease rents and maintenance payments.
The amendment provides that the Company is to remit periodic payments
(generally on a weekly basis) to American commencing March 31, 1995 and ending
December 22, 1995, in amounts ranging from approximately $25,000 to $950,000,
including interest at 10.0% per annum, plus payments for the basic rent of
aircraft. Maintenance payments will also be payable weekly, but in the same
aggregate amounts as set forth in the original terms of the long-term Aircraft
Lease Agreement. Thereafter, commencing January 5, 1996, the Company is
required to pay, weekly in advance, the basic rent payments owed for the
aircraft and maintenance payments in respect of the aircraft.

13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

LITIGATION

The Reorganized Company is a party to a number of legal proceedings,
substantially all of which were filed prior to the Petition Date. The Chapter
11 filing resulted in the imposition of an automatic stay against the
commencement or continuation of any judicial, administrative or other action or
proceeding against the Reorganized Company that was or could have been
commenced before the Petition Date. The outcomes of these proceedings cannot be
predicted with certainty. However, adverse outcomes in any of the legal
proceedings filed prior to the Chapter 11 filing and any resultant allowed
claim will share pro rata with other unsecured creditors in common stock of the
Reorganized Company.

Claims have been, or may be, asserted against the Reorganized Company for
alleged administrative claims on or before the Effective Date of the Plan.
Management believes that the Reorganized Company has established adequate
reserves for these claims.

The Reorganized Company is a party to various other claims and legal actions
which are incidental to the conduct of its business. In the opinion of
management, after consultation with legal counsel, the Reorganized Company
believes that the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a
material adverse effect on the Reorganized Company's operations or financial
condition.

OTHER CARRIER SETTLEMENT

In the first quarter of 1995, the Company reached agreement with one of its
creditors for settlement of approximately $2.0 million in liabilities owed.
The creditor will receive 1) $300,000 of the Reorganized Company's new common
stock shares and 2) $1.7 million to be paid in specified installments over 20.0
months. The $2.0 million in liabilities are included in air traffic liability
as of December 31, 1994.

AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE

F-32

<PAGE>

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. The Company is required to prepay for such maintenance
services on a monthly basis in accordance with the Long-Term Agreements. Prior
to April 1995, the Company was delinquent in making certain payments due
American under its lease arrangements. See Notes 6, 12 and 14.

Hawaiian Airlines anticipates that in the period 1995 through 1999, eight of
its thirteen 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 $900,000.

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 1995 through 1999
period will approximate $300,000 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 1995 through 1999, 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-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 totalled $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, 1994 amounting to approximately $208.1 million. Rent expense
relating to these operating leases totalled $4.4 million, $3.6 million and $4.2
million in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.

F-33

<PAGE>

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 $737,000, $672,000 and $557,000 of
rent in 1994, 1993 and 1992, 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 1993, Gold Plus members had accumulated
approximately 3.0 and 3.1 billion miles, respectively, representing liabilities
totalling approximately $489,000 and $450,000 at the end of each year,
respectively. The Company's accruals assume full redemption of mileage points.
During the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, 636.0 million, 493.0
million and 264.0 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 2.7%, 2.1% and 1.2% of Interisland traffic and an insignificant
percentage of Transpacific and South Pacific traffic in 1994, 1993 and 1992,
respectively.

14. FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

On the Effective Date, the Company recognized an extraordinary gain of $190.1
million representing the relief of approximately $204.7 million in prepetition
liabilities net of offsets and certain prepetition liabilities which survived.
However, as of December 31, 1994, the Reorganized Company had a net working
capital deficit of $45.8 million. The net working capital deficit as of
December 31, 1994 represents a $4.6 million increase from the net working
capital deficit of $41.2 million at December 31, 1993. The deterioration in
the Company's working capital position at December 31, 1994 from that at
December 31, 1993 is due to a combination of the following:

* In relation to current assets, increases in accounts receivable, assets
held for sale, and prepaid expenses of $2.0 million, $1.6 million and $2.2
million, respectively, being offset by decreases in cash and cash
equivalents of $800,000 and inventories of$5.3 million;

* In relation to current liabilities, increases in current portion of long-
term debt, current portion of capital lease obligations, air traffic
liability and accrued liabilities of $4.2 million, $2.9 million, $10.3
million and $1.0 million, respectively, reduced by decreases in accounts
payable of $14.1 million.

As discussed in Note 7, on the Effective Date, credit facility borrowings were
made by the Reorganized Company under the Financing. As of the date of this
report, the amount of the facility had been effectively reduced to
approximately $5.5 million, which amount was

F-34

<PAGE>

approximately fully drawn in the form of $3.4 million in borrowings and $2.1
million in letters of credit.

In order to increase liquidity, the Company has also engaged in a series of
promotional ticket sales activities. As of the date of this report, another
such promotional activity is in progress. Such promotional activities increase
liquidity, but also increase air traffic liability which could affect revenues
and liquidity in future periods. Liquidity was further enhanced when 1) in
December 1994, $3.0 million of letters of credit issued under the CIT Financing
and held by the Airline Reporting Corporation were supplanted with a letter of
credit of $100,000, effectively increasing the availability of the revolving
credit facility under the Financing and 2) in March 1995, $3.6 million in fuel
facility notes receivable held by the Company were collected with $1.5 million
of the proceeds reducing borrowings under the Financing and $2.1 million
reverting back to the Company.

Notwithstanding the above, since the Effective Date, the Company has continued
to experience liquidity shortfalls. As discussed in Notes 6, 12 and 13, prior
to April 1995, the Company failed to timely make certain payments due American
under the long-term Aircraft Lease Agreement with the Company and American
executing an amendment to the long-term Aircraft Lease Agreement, effective
April 13, 1995, providing for the deferral of payment of the delinquent lease
rents and maintenance payments.

The Company currently does not have access to other unutilized credit
facilities and, since there are no remaining unencumbered assets, its access to
additional sources of liquidity remains limited. The Company is seeking other
possible sources of external financing, but unless it is successful there may
continue to be liquidity shortfalls in the future.

The financial statements at December 31, 1994, 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. As
discussed herein, the Company has continued to experience net and operating
losses post Effective Date. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that the
Company will succeed in solving its liquidity problems or that the Company will
have sufficient cash resources to support its continued operations. Because of
the Company's liquidity shortfall, an adverse change in events and
circumstances outside the control of management could result in the Company
being unable to meet its financial obligations. 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 the uncertainties
discussed herein. 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.

15. 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, Transpacific and South Pacific scheduled service is
marketed through a number of wholesalers and tour operators. No wholesaler or
tour operator accounted for more than 10.0% of total passenger revenues in 1994
or 1992. In 1993, one

F-35

<PAGE>

wholesaler accounted for approximately 11.0% of total passenger revenues.
The wholesaler primarily purchased tickets in the Interisland and
Transpacific markets with total purchases in 1993 aggregating approximately
$31.0 million.

16. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

NWA, INC. ("NWA") AND NORTHWEST AIRLINES, INC. ("NORTHWEST")

The Predecessor incurred certain operating revenues and expenses in 1992 in
relation to certain operating and marketing agreements with NWA and Northwest.
Both NWA and Northwest ceased being related parties in 1992. Refer to Note 17.

JAPAN AIRLINES CO., LTD. ("JAL")

Pursuant to a Space Block Agreement, the Predecessor provided JAL with blocks
of seats on certain of its flights from Honolulu to Kahului, Maui and certain
ground handling services. The Predecessor earned $970,000 and $4.5 million in
revenue under this arrangement during 1993 and 1992, respectively. Ground
handling charges related to those segments under the Space Block Agreement
totalled an additional $267,000 during 1992. The Space Block Agreement was
terminated in 1993.

OTHER

The Company incurred $276,000, $583,000 and $1.5 million in legal fees from one
of its outside legal counsel in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. One of the
directors of the Company, Mr. Martin Anderson, is a partner in this law firm.
As of December 31, 1994, $7,500 of fees were outstanding.

17. 1992 FINANCIAL RESTRUCTURING AND RECAPITALIZATION PLAN

The Predecessor implemented a complex and comprehensive financial and operating
restructuring in November 1992 (the "1992 Restructuring"). Most of the
components of the restructuring were consummated at the same time, and
contingent upon each other. The principal components of this restructuring
were as follows:

TRANSACTIONS WITH THE BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL TRUST AND SAVINGS (THE "BANK")

An extraordinary gain of $106.6 million was recognized in 1992 when pursuant to
an agreement with the Debtors in November 1992, the Bank cancelled indebtedness
of approximately $80.0 million and surrendered for cancellation its warrant to
purchase approximately 8.0% of the Predecessor's common stock on a fully
diluted basis and all of the outstanding shares of the Predecessor's Class C
Senior Preferred Stock ("Class C Stock"), which had a liquidation preference of
approximately $55.0 million and certain rights to mandatory redemption.

The Debtors transferred to the Bank 1) approximately $18.6 million of cash
proceeds received from the condemnation of the West Maui Airport; 2)
approximately $200,000 in payment for the Bank's attorneys' fees and for
accrued and future letter of credit fees related to $3.0 million in letters of
credit issued for the Debtors' benefit; 3) a warrant to purchase 1,075,268
shares of the common stock of the Predecessor representing approximately 13.1%
of the common stock of the Predecessor following closing, exercisable at a
price of $0.01 per share at any time through November 9, 2002; and 4) an
unsecured subordinated promissory note

F-36

payable in the principal amount of approximately $3.4 million. The $3.0
million in letters of credit were secured by most of the mortgages and
security interests that had previously secured the Debtors' indebtedness to
the Bank. The outstanding letters of credit and mortgages and security
interests securing such were cancelled on the Effective Date.

NWA AND NORTHWEST TRANSACTIONS

In 1992, the Predecessor completed a series of transactions with Northwest and
its parent NWA involving the sale of its Honolulu, Hawaii-Fukuoka Route (the
"Fukuoka Route") in exchange for 1) the forgiveness of $7.5 million in loans
plus related accrued interest and $34.2 million in outstanding net wet lease
obligations resulting in a nonoperating gain of approximately $41.7 million, 2)
the return and cancellation of its shares of common and Class D Junior
Convertible Preference Stock ("Class D Stock"), and NWA's option to purchase up
to 49.0% of the Predecessor's common stock on a fully diluted basis; 3) the
extension through 1995 of certain marketing and operational agreements relating
to fuel purchase, engine overhaul and repair and flight simulator training and
ground handling and 4) new ten-year agreements for code sharing and proration
of fares designed to save Northwest up to $500,000 per year off of the Debtors'
standard prorated fares on Interisland flights, assuming Northwest provided
certain volumes of feeder traffic. The Debtors' performance obligations under
these ten-year agreements were secured by 100,000 Interisland ticket coupons
and were to be used by Northwest had the Debtors materially defaulted under the
agreements. The ten-year agreements were rejected on the Effective Date and
the 100,000 Interisland ticket coupons subsequently returned to the Reorganized
Company.

The Predecessor incurred approximately $63.3 million and $135.7 million in
operating revenues and expenses, respectively, in 1992 related to the operation
of the Fukuoka Route and the marketing and operational agreements with
Northwest and NWA.

CANCELLATION OF CERTAIN SHARES OF STOCK

In addition to the shares of common, Class C and Class D Stock surrendered for
cancellation by NWA and the Bank, J. Thomas Talbot and Peter V. Ueberroth, two
former directors of the Predecessor, surrendered a total of 479,758 common
stock shares for cancellation. Messrs. Talbot's and Ueberroth's voting rights
with respect to an additional 1,006,994 shares of the Predecessor's common
stock were also terminated. Prior to the restructuring, Messrs. Talbot and
Ueberroth held voting control of approximately 36.2% of the outstanding voting
securities of the Predecessor.

Pan Pacific Hoteliers, Inc. ("PPH"), a subsidiary of JAL, converted its 487,992
shares of Class A Convertible Preferred Stock ("Class A stock") into 487,992
shares of common stock, thereby relieving the Predecessor from a mandatory
redemption obligation commencing in December 1998 that would have aggregated
approximately $19.5 million. PPH was also granted the right to "put" its
487,992 shares of common stock to the Company for $10.0 million if a "Control
Change" (sale of the Predecessor to certain U.S. air carriers) occurred on or
prior to the first anniversary of the restructuring or for $5.0 million if the
Control Change occurred after the first anniversary and on or before the fifth
anniversary of the 1992 Restructuring. PPH's Common Stock interests in the
Predecessor along with any remaining Class A Stock were cancelled on the
Effective Date.

PRIVATE PLACEMENT

As part of the 1992 Restructuring, the Debtors also closed a private placement
of 2,816,659 shares of HAL, Inc. common stock at a purchase price of $3.72 per
share for total proceeds of approximately $10.5 million.

AMENDMENTS TO UNION AGREEMENTS

In 1992, the Predecessor received ratification agreements with three of its
unions to assist in lowering expenses and increasing productivity. Included
in these agreements were (1) revised work rules; (2) sharing of health care
costs; and (3) a change in the interest rate assumption used for funding the
pilots' retirement plan in exchange for 425,000 shares of the Predecessor's
common stock.

SALE OF WEST MAUI AIRPORT

In October 1992, the State of Hawaii filed an action to condemn the West Maui
Airport (the "Airport") pursuant to a prior agreement with the Debtors. The
Airport was owned by the Debtors and located on land leased from a third party.
By an agreement between the State of Hawaii, the Debtors and the third party,
the State agreed to pay $18.6 million to the Debtors and $6.4 million to the
third party. The net proceeds were utilized to repurchase the Debtors's
indebtedness to the Bank as part of the 1992 Restructuring. The Debtors
discontinued operations to the Airport on April 18, 1994 with title of the
Airport transferring to the State of Hawaii on the Effective Date.

The results for the fourth quarter of 1993 include $52.6 million of
expenses related to the reorganization processes of the Company, including
$51.8 million for the early termination of the Company's L-1011 aircraft
leases.

The results of operations for the first three quarters of 1994 and 1993 were
adjusted for the impact of certain significant fourth quarter adjustments
which related to the prior quarters. These adjustments were corrections of
errors which resulted from mathematical mistakes, mistakes in the application
of accounting principles, or oversight or misuse of facts that existed at the
time the financial statements were prepared.

Effective July 1, 1993, the Predecessor began to treat passengers flying on
promotional or frequent flyer awards as revenue passengers. This change
decreased passenger revenue per passenger mile by 0.1 CENTS in 1993 and
