These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2002, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2002, is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements, but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

Plan Description General $uper $aver - A 401(k) Capital Accumulation Plan for Employees of Participating AMR Corporation Subsidiaries (the Plan) is a contributory program for employees of participating subsidiaries of AMR Corporation (AMR or the Company), including American Airlines, Inc. (American), a wholly owned subsidiary of AMR. The Plan allows tax-deferred savings by eligible employees to provide funds for their retirement. The Plan is intended to meet the requirements of Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), as well as the requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA). Participants should refer to the Summary Plan Description for more complete information. The Plan is administered by two committees, the Pension Benefits Administration Committee and the Pension Asset Administration Committee, whose members are appointed by the Board of Directors of AMR or its designee. Effective November 28, 2002, responsibilities for recordkeeping and other contract administration services transferred from Towers Perrin to JPMorgan/American Century Retirement Plan Services. Also on that date, J. P. Morgan Chase & Co. assumed responsibilities from State Street Bank and Trust Company (State Street) as Plan trustee. Income Tax Status The Plan has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service dated March 25, 2003, stating that the Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and, therefore, the related trust is exempt from taxation. Subsequent to this issuance of the determination letter, the Plan was amended. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the Code to maintain its qualification. The Plan administrator believes the Plan is being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code and, therefore, believes that the Plan, as amended, is qualified and the related trust is tax- exempt. Eligibility Employees are eligible to participate in the Plan as soon as administratively possible following the employee's hire date. -4- 10 $uper $aver - A 401(k) Capital Accumulation Plan for Employees of Participating AMR Corporation Subsidiaries Notes to Financial Statements (continued) 1. Plan Description (continued) Contributions The Plan is voluntary and provides that each participant may elect to allow the employer to deduct from the participant's compensation contributions to the Plan as provided by the provisions of the Plan on either a before-tax or after-tax basis. Such contributions are subject to certain limitations in accordance with provisions of the Code. American makes contributions to the Plan for Flight Engineers equal to six percent of their annual eligible compensation. AMR Eagle Holding Corporation (AMR Eagle), a wholly owned subsidiary of AMR makes contributions for its participants with less than ten years of service in an amount up to 50 percent of the first six percent of a participant's compensation contributed to the Plan as an employee before- tax contribution. Participants with ten or more years of service are eligible to receive 50 percent of the first eight percent of their compensation contributed to the Plan as an employee before-tax contribution. Effective January 1, 2001, American provided its current, noncontract employees a one-time option to remain in the American Airlines, Inc. Retirement Benefit Plan for Agents, Management, Specialists, Support Personnel and Officers (the Pension Plan) or discontinue accruing future credited service in the Pension Plan at January 1, 2001, and elect to receive a Company match up to 5.5 percent of employee contributions of pensionable earnings, as defined, to the Plan. Employees who were hired prior to December 31, 1999, who did not make the election by the deadline date, continued to accrue benefits under the Pension Plan and do not receive a Company match from the Plan. Employees hired on or after January 1, 2000, who did not make the election by the option date, are eligible for the Plan's employer match after the completion of one year of service and receive no benefits under the Pension Plan. Employees hired on or after January 1, 2002 are not eligible for benefits under the Pension Plan but may elect to participate in the Plan. -5- 11 $uper $aver - A 401(k) Capital Accumulation Plan for Employees of Participating AMR Corporation Subsidiaries Notes to Financial Statements (continued) 1. Plan Description (continued) On April 9, 2001, American purchased substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Trans World Airlines, Inc. (TWA). On that date, TWA employees became eligible to participate in the Plan and could elect to transfer their existing TWA defined contribution plan account balance into the Plan. As a result, approximately $35 million of TWA rollovers are included in employee contributions for the year ended December 31, 2002. Participants are immediately vested in their employee contributions plus earnings thereon. Flight Engineers are immediately vested in the employer contribution portion of their participant's account plus earnings thereon. Effective January 1, 2002, for all other Plan participants, full vesting in the employer contribution portion of each participant's account plus earnings thereon occurs after three years of service, as defined by the Plan. Distributions In accordance with the Plan document and as allowed under Section 401(k) of the Code, distributions of participants' before-tax contributions are available upon retirement, death, disability, or separation from service and in amounts necessary to satisfy a financial hardship as determined by the Pension Benefits Administration Committee, in accordance with the Plan and the provisions of the Code. Participants may withdraw after-tax contributions at any time. Loans The Plan provides a loan program which is administered in accordance with the provisions of Section 72(p) of the Code and the Department of Labor's Regulation 2550.408 b-1. This program allows loans of up to 50 percent of each participant's before-tax contribution account balance, subject to a maximum of $50,000. Interest rates are based on the prime interest rate minus one percent at the time the loan is made. Forfeitures If a participant terminates employment prior to vesting, the forfeited amounts shall be applied first to restore re- employed participants' previous account balance and then to reduce future employer contributions. -6- 12 $uper $aver - A 401(k) Capital Accumulation Plan for Employees of Participating AMR Corporation Subsidiaries Notes to Financial Statements (continued) 1. Plan Description (continued) Plan Termination While AMR has not expressed any intent to discontinue the Plan, the Board of Directors of AMR may terminate the Plan for any reason, at any time. If the Plan is terminated, each participant will become fully vested in his/her account balance. AMR Financial Condition In AMR's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (AMR 10-K) on April 15, 2003, the Report of Independent Auditors included a modified opinion expressing substantial doubt about AMR's ability to continue as a going concern due to recent significant losses and a number of other issues. At this point the Company does not believe that AMR's financial condition will significantly impact its ability to meet its obligations to the Plan. However, there can be no assurance as to how, if at all, AMR's current financial condition or actions taken as a result of its financial condition will impact the Plan. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Investments Investments of the Plan include shares in the investment portfolios of the American AAdvantage Funds (the AAdvantage Funds), a diversified management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as well as six additional mutual fund families. The AAdvantage Funds are managed by AMR Investment Services, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of AMR Corporation. Effective July 1, 2001, Plan assets can also be invested in shares of common stock of AMR (the Company Stock Fund). Plan participants can elect to invest up to 10 percent of their fund balance in the Company Stock Fund (see additional information regarding the Company Stock Fund in Footnote 4). -7- 13 $uper $aver - A 401(k) Capital Accumulation Plan for Employees of Participating AMR Corporation Subsidiaries Notes to Financial Statements (continued) 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Investments in the AAdvantage Funds and other mutual funds are carried at published per share net asset value. Net asset value is based on the fair market value of each AAdvantage Fund's or mutual fund's underlying assets and liabilities at the date of determination. The Company Stock Fund is valued based on quoted market prices. Participant loans are valued at their remaining outstanding balance, which approximates fair value. The Short-Term Investment Fund is valued at their remaining outstanding balance, which approximates fair value. A portion of the Plan's assets is also invested in demand deposits in the American Airlines Federal Credit Union (the Credit Union Fund). Investments in the Credit Union Fund are valued at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates fair value. Net Depreciation in Fair Value of Investments Purchases and sales of securities are reflected on the trade dates. The net depreciation in fair value of investments includes realized and unrealized investment gains and losses as well as capital gains distributions. Realized gains or losses on the disposal of securities are determined on the basis of the average cost of securities sold, while unrealized gains or losses are determined on the basis of the cost of securities held at the end of the year. Investment Income Investment income is allocated to participants' accounts based on their pro rata balances within each fund. Interest income is recorded as earned on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. -8- 14 $uper $aver - A 401(k) Capital Accumulation Plan for Employees of Participating AMR Corporation Subsidiaries Notes to Financial Statements (continued) 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Contributions Contributions are recorded when payroll deductions are made for Plan participants. Distributions Distributions are recorded when paid. Expenses Administrative expenses are paid by the Plan and are recorded on the accrual basis. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Risks and Uncertainties The Plan provides for investments in various investment securities which, in general, are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit and overall market volatility risks. As a result of these risks, it is possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits. Basis of Accounting The Plan's financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. -9- 15 $uper $aver - A 401(k) Capital Accumulation Plan for Employees of Participating AMR Corporation Subsidiaries Notes to Financial Statements (continued) 3.
