5.4 Subsidies received

Airport Development Fund (ADF)
In accordance with Law 2065/1992, as amended with Law 2892/2001, the Greek State imposed a levy on all
passengers older than 5 years old, departing from Greek Airports, for the purpose of ensuring that passengers
share the responsibility for funding the commercial aviation infrastructure within the Hellenic Republic.
A passenger fee is collected by the airlines and consequently refunded to the Hellenic Civil Aviation
Authority on a monthly basis, through bank accounts opened with the Bank of Greece for each airport, in
favour of the latter.

According to article 26.1 of Law 2338/1995, the “Airport Development Agreement”, the Greek State
undertook the responsibility to collect the passenger fee over the period from 1 November 1994 to 1
November 2014. The Greek State also committed that article 40 of Law 2065/1992 “will not be amended
or modified in any respect which materially prejudices the financial return of the Airport Company”.
Based on the provisions of article 26.2 of Law 2338/1995, in conjunction with article 16 of Law
2892/2001, the airport Company, at all times prior to airport opening and at all times after the airport
opening, is entitled to make withdrawals from the Spata Airport Development Fund, in order to fund
borrowing costs incurred in respect to loans received for funding infrastructure development.
