I don't believe any of these aircraft have actually been delivered. The latest delivery was A6-EFH, one of the 777F versions. Both A6-EGZ and A6-ENA are still at PAE, and as far as I know, A6-EDX has also not yet been delivered.

A330 A6-EKZ has not been flying for a while; has she left the fleet? I think she was scheduled to leave the fleet till years end....

She is a leased bird who first flew 13/9/2000 and was delivered 27/10/2000, not seen since 08/09/2012.
If she is in for a major service that would be bad planning if she is to be out of the fleet soon.

I have seen this thread; but many times things changes....the A340/300 for example; first they should leave this year; but now they will stay longer!
