Turnkey systems
Optimised turnkey engineering phase Alstom has a large system engineering team which guarantees Co-ordinated turnkey design team integrating each subsystem Selection of products and solutions to optimize the Life Cycle Costs Sophisticated RAMS (Reliability Availability Maintainability Safety) simulation team and tools Planning optimisation reducing construction time Our large experience allows costs optimisation Better logistics management Mutualisation of resources Optimization of site organisation
Public-Private Partnership AT’s experience in railway projects
PPP & Concession : General Definition A PPP & Concession’s Project is a project which includes through a single contract : the construction of all or part of a railway transport system the financing of all or part of the construction by the private sector the operation and/or maintenance of the railway transport system the revenue, taking into account (part of) the traffic risk and/or performance risk (availability, reliability , …)
PPP & Concession: Alstom Definition A PPP or Concession’s Project (BOT, BOO, DBFOM, DBFM…) is a project where Alstom : has its usual role of contractor / supplier / maintainer + acts as shareholder of a Special Purpose Company (SPC) mobilizes private fundings (equity, limited recourse financing) to implement the Project and secure its scope of works
Substitute Capex by Opex PPP typical structure & benefits PPP contractual scheme : Main benefits for the customer : Conceding Authority Users Risk transfer Capital subsidy PPP contract Operating subsidies Budget control Loan contract Lenders Special Purpose Company Shareholders Debt service On-time delivery Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contract (turnkey) O&M contract Substitute Capex by Opex Consortium Construction Consortium (Exploitation) & Maintenance
Example: Three possible schemes for a High Speed PPP project: Investment scope Operational scope Civil works Electro-mecanic Rolling Stock Construction Operation Maintenance Benefits Drawbacks Examples 1/ Global project setting up X No interface to deal with Private sector totally responsible Well-adapted to tramway projects Financial flow too important for high speed projects TAV Brazil 2/ PPP for infrastructure only - Facilitating multiple operation Private sector totally responsible of the line Possible segmentation into portions Lead to hold a precise preliminary referential for operation by third operators Not much adapted to tramway or metro RFF France California Spain 3/ PPP for superstructure only (or for selected portions) Multiple operation facilitated Direct control on civil works by the customer Private sector committment to the system Possible segmentation into portions or trades Reducing risk transfer (interfaces) Not much adapated to tramway or metro HSL Zuid Nthlds
Unique expertise as a railway system integrator: Why is Alstom involved in a PPP ? Unique expertise as a railway system integrator: Life cycle cost: long-term performance maintening from the conception phase to the operational phase Industrial Alstom share in a PPP, up to: 20% for high speed, 30% for metros, 80% for tramways Being minority shareholder in the SPC, Alstom fulfils its global committment towards the Customer and the shareholders Mid-term & long-term balance between customers’ and Alstom’s interests
What each one brings What each one gets PPP projects: Private sector Risk sharing Turnkey solution On-time delivery commitment Better budget control PPP project Private sector Passengers Public sector Design & construction Contract Financing Contracts Dividends Operation & Maintenance Contract Design & construction Grounds Operation & maintenance Laws context Subsidies Financing Banks Rights Capital Service Quality Farebox Income
RISK SHARING MATRIX Alstom views – Subject to negotiation Land acquisition Design & Construction Modification of standards and norms Operation and maintenance Exchange rate Ticket price Inflation Change orders Level of service Traffic Interest rate Technology New competition modes Political risks Conceding Concessionaire
PPP: Major Success Factors Sustained political support to the project Adequacy of legal concession frame with international standards Realistic assessment of the investment cost and/or of the revenues of the passenger traffic at the ‘feasibility’ stage Past experience of the country for such projects The conceding authority must have the financial capacity to support the project Well-balanced risk sharing between the conceding authority and the concessionaire Strong committed , experienced, international and local partners for construction, operation, and financing Limited number of partners at Concession and EPC levels

Conclusion
General Key Messages The State have to create upstream adequate political and legal frame A too complex environment does not attract investors A direct investment from public authority is a must Allow use of Export Credit from Supplier to leverage additional support Part of the payment (including revenues) to be considered in strong currency (or to provide Forex guarantees) The risk matrix should be discuss locally and take into consideration the local environment as well
