Hong Kong Aviation Capital Appoints Rick Macker as Head of Capital Markets

HONG KONG, August 13, 2010 - Hong Kong Aviation Capital ('HKAC'), a leading investor in global
aviation finance, announced today that Rick Macker has been appointed Head of
Capital Markets. Rick commenced his employment with HKAC this week and is
based in the company's London office. He comes to HKAC from HSH-Nordbank AG
where he was Senior Vice-President, Head of Transportation Americas.

"Rick Macker's appointment is a significant step in growing our executive
management team to help drive HKAC's global expansion," said Bharat Bhise,
CEO Bravia Capital and shareholder in HKAC.

"Rick's hiring is testament to our dedication to attract and recruit the
best available talent in the global finance industry. Rick's 20 years of
experience in the transport finance sector will help HKAC in achieving our
short and long term business goals, including our objective to double our
aircraft fleet in the next 12 months," he said.

"Since taking over the Allco Aviation Leasing business earlier this year
we've built and strengthened our management and staff, upgraded our
accounting and technology systems and redefined our strategy. We are very
excited about our future," said Mathis Shinnick, Chief Executive Officer,
Hong Kong Aviation Company.

HKAC is a diversified player in the global aviation finance industry that
includes HNA Group Co., Ltd of China and an affiliate of Bravia Capital, New
York as shareholders. The appointment of Mr. Macker follows the company's
recent acquisition of three new A320 aircraft under sale-leaseback to Indian
airline IndiGo. The US$ 200 million transaction, signed in early July 2010,
will expand HKAC's fleet of 68 aircraft, and assets totaling approximately
US$3 billion. The firm completed its acquisition of Allco Aviation in early
January 2010. HKAC plans to further expand its employee presence globally
over the next 12 months.

Mr. Macker was most recently Senior Vice-President, Head of
Transportation Americas at HSH-Nordbank AG in New York. Prior to joining HSH,
