On July 8, 2024, AerCap Ireland Capital Designated Activity Company and AerCap Global Aviation Trust (together, the “Issuers”), each a wholly-owned subsidiary of AerCap Holdings N.V. (the “Company”), priced an offering (the “Offering”) of $750 million aggregate principal amount of the Issuers’ Fixed-Rate Reset Junior Subordinated Notes due 2055 (the “Notes”). The Notes will be issued with an initial interest rate of 6.950% per annum, to be reset on March 10, 2030 and every five years thereafter based on the then-prevailing five-year U.S. Treasury rate plus a spread of 2.720%. The Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured junior subordinated basis by the Company and certain other subsidiaries of the Company.
 
The Issuers intend to use the net proceeds from the Notes  for general corporate purposes, which may include the redemption of all or a portion of the Company’s outstanding Fixed-Rate Reset Junior Subordinated Notes due 2079 (the “2079 Junior Subordinated Notes”) on October 10, 2024, which is the first call date in respect of such notes. The information contained herein does not constitute a notice of redemption for the 2079 Junior Subordinated Notes.
 
J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Mizuho Securities USA LLC, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and Santander US Capital Markets LLC are serving as joint book-running managers for the underwritten public Offering of the Notes.
 
The Company has filed a registration statement (including a prospectus) on Form F-3 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for the Offering. The registration statement automatically became effective upon filing on October 19, 2021. Investors should read the accompanying prospectus dated October 19, 2021, the preliminary prospectus supplement relating to the Offering dated July 8, 2024, and other documents the Company has filed with the SEC for more complete information about the Company, the Notes and the Offering.
