Other Information<br />
Other material events and uncertainties known to management that would address the past and would<br />
have an impact on ATS’ future operations are discussed below.<br />
i. Total fuel/lubes expense is a major component of ATS’ total cost and expenses. Fuel<br />
prices continue to rise amidst turmoil in the Middle East and Africa. Fuel oil MTD May<br />
2011 is US$105/barrel. ATS is constantly looking for ways to reduce fuel consumption to<br />
lessen the impact of the increasing fuel prices on the bottom line.<br />
ii.<br />
Except as disclosed in the management discussion and notes to the financial statements,<br />
there are no other known events that will trigger direct or contingent financial obligation<br />
that is material to ATS, including any default or acceleration of an obligation. There are<br />
also no other known trends, events or uncertainties that have had or that are reasonably<br />
expected to have a material favorable or unfavorable impact on revenues or income from<br />
operations.<br />
