In the spirit of the Agreement, yes. However things can change.

Extension of the runway to 2000 metres is not physically possible within the current airport boundary, which is shown on an appendix to the Agreement. If the airport was to procure land to the north of the current boundary there may be a possibilty that the Agreement could be re-negotiated, albeit IMHO this would possibly have little chance of success on environmental grounds, ie taking noise closer to residential areas in Eastleigh.
