In
June 20 1996, we won a 25-year concession (with possibility
of extension) to operate the tourist port of Acapulco
and commenced operations in July 1996. The first phase
consisting of the car carrier terminal was completed
in November 1997. The second phase consisting of the
Passenger Terminal was completed during the fourth quarter
of 2000. Our port interests in Acapulco are operated
through a joint venture with SSA Mexico, Inc. called
Administración Portuaria Integral de
Acapulco, S.A. de C.V. (‘‘API Acapulco’’),
in which we have a 51% interest.
