40,000 sq ft Gateway Facilities ULC Connects High Value Canadian Exports and Imports With Markets Around the World

Halifax, Canada, June 4, 2010 (ots/PRNewswire) - The official opening
today of Gateway Facilities ULC in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada means
high value air cargo is delivered on time around the world," says
Doug McRae, co-owner of Gateway Facilities ULC. "This facility is a
critical component of the Atlantic Gateway as it enhances quality and
reliability in the global supply chain."

Gateway Facilities ULC is the new 40,000 sq ft facility
prominently located at the Halifax Stanfield International Airport
airside subdivision, with 7,000 sq. ft. of temperature controlled
cargo space and airside access, accommodating 747 freighters. In this
new facility, the largest of its kind north of Miami, cargo is moved
from the refrigerated space to the aircraft in less than two minutes.

The $15 million (Canadian) joint investment between Gateway
Facilities ULC, and Halifax International Airport Authority, is a
recent addition to the airside subdivision and has been operational
since January 2010. Customers already in operation at the Gateway
Facility ULC are FedEx Express, Worldwide Perishables, and WestJet
Cargo.

"The new facility was created in response to Canada's growing
high value import and export business and all partners in the supply
chain wanting to move goods to and from Canada and the Northeastern
United States," says McRae.

Keynote speaker, Joe Hete, President and CEO of ATSG, which has
been operating from Gateway Facilities ULC since January 2010 said,
"What's key with this type of facility is the opportunity to maintain
the quality of high value perishable goods while in transit and to
move them quickly from production and manufacturing to global
markets."

"This facility is unique on the Eastern Seaboard as it provides
international carriers with refrigerated air cargo space adjacent to
an apron at Halifax Stanfield International Airport," said Tom Ruth,
President and CEO of Halifax International Airport Authority.

Today Gateway Facilities ULC customers, industry leaders, and
government representatives celebrated the opening and discussed
opportunities for increased international air cargo moving to and
from North America.
