FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
FOCUS SELLS B747-400
Focus Aviation is pleased to announce that it has sold a Boeing 747-400 aircraft to EL AL Israel Airlines, on behalf of Rabobank International.

Rabobank Group is a full-range financial services provider comprising about 180 independent local Dutch Rabobanks, a central organisation (Rabobank Nederland), Rabobank International and a large number of specialised international offices and subsidiaries. The Rabobank Group has the highest credit rating (AAA), awarded by the well-known international rating agencies Moody's and Standard & Poor's. In terms of Tier 1 Capital, the organisation is among the world's fifteen largest financial institutions.

The aircraft, serial number 26551, is currently on lease to Singapore Airlines and is due to be returned to the Lessor in the last quarter of 2008. Following its return off lease the aircraft will then be handed over to EL AL as part of the Israeli national airline's fleet expansion plans.

This sale brings the total of Boeing 747 aircraft sold by Focus Aviation in recent years to 27, which indeed marks the excellent track record of Focus in this market segment.
