Air India</title><description>Bank of Scotland and Deutsche Bank have closed a $200 million PDP financing of eight 777 aircraft for the National Aviation Company of India.  
Bank of Scotland and Deutsche Bank are global lead arrangers ING and Natixis Transport Finance are co-lead arrangers. Bank of Scotland is also acting as facility agent.
Though the pricing has not been reported, a banker close to the deal said the pricing was fair given the market conditions. One banker has suggested that it is an attractive piece of short-term paper, so syndication of the deal is unlikely. 
Vedder Price acted as legal counsel for the lenders.</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/afj_deals/~3/VXKLF1X0DMU/PDP-Financing-for-Air-India.html</link><pubDate>Wed, 06 Aug 2008
