1. General
The Company
We are an integrated global aviation company, conducting aircraft and engine leasing and trading and parts sales. We also provide a wide range of aircraft management services to other owners of aircraft. We are headquartered in The Netherlands and have offices in Ireland, the United States, Singapore, China, the United Arab Emirates and the United Kingdom.
These condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of AerCap Holdings N.V. and its subsidiaries. AerCap Holdings N.V. is a Netherlands public limited liability company (naamloze vennootschap or N.V.) formed on July 10, 2006 for the purpose of acquiring all of the assets and liabilities of AerCap Holdings C.V. AerCap Holdings C.V. is a limited partnership (commanditaire vennootschap) formed under the laws of The Netherlands on June 27, 2005 for the purposes of acquiring the share capital, subordinated debt and senior debt of debis AirFinance B.V. (AerCap B.V.), which occurred on June 30, 2005 (the 2005 Acquisition). In anticipation of our initial public offering, we changed our corporate structure from a Netherlands partnership to a Netherlands public limited liability company. This change was effected through the acquisition of all of the assets and liabilities of AerCap Holdings C.V. by AerCap Holdings N.V. on October 27, 2006. In accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, this acquisition was a transaction under common control and accordingly, AerCap Holdings N.V. recognized the acquisition of the assets and liabilities of AerCap Holdings C.V. at their carrying values and no goodwill or other intangible assets were recognized. On November 27, 2006, we completed an initial public offering on The New York Stock Exchange, of 6,800,000 of our common shares at $23 per share generating net proceeds of $143,017 which we used to repay debt. On August 6, 2007 we completed the secondary offering of 20,000,000 additional ordinary shares at $25.90 per share. On March 25, 2010, the all-share acquisition of Genesis was completed (the Genesis Transaction) and increased our outstanding ordinary shares by 34,348,858. On November 11, 2010, we completed a transaction with Abu Dhabi-based investment holding company Waha Capital PJSC (Waha). As part of this transaction our outstanding ordinary shares increased by 29,846,611. As of December 31, 2010, we had 149,232,426 shares issued and outstanding.
Variable interest entities
There have been no material changes to our variable interest entities from those disclosed in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on March 23, 2011 as amended by our Form 20-F/A filed with the SEC on April 20, 2011, except for the sale on June 1, 2011 of our 50% interest in three A330 aircraft that had been part of a joint venture with a third party.
2. Basis for presentation
Our financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We consolidate all companies in which we have a direct and indirect legal or effective control and all variable interest entities for which we are deemed the primary beneficiary under ASC 810. All intercompany balances and transactions with consolidated subsidiaries have been eliminated. The results of consolidated entities are included from the effective date of control or, in the case of variable interest entities, from the date that we are or become the primary beneficiary. The results of subsidiaries sold or otherwise deconsolidated are excluded from the date that we cease to control the subsidiary or, in the case of variable interest entities, when we cease to be the primary beneficiary.
Other investments in which we have the ability to exercise significant influence and joint ventures are accounted for under the equity method of accounting.
The consolidated financial statements are stated in United States dollars, which is our functional currency.

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(US dollars in thousands or as otherwise stated, except share and per share amounts)
2. Basis for presentation (continued)
Certain information and footnote disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete annual financial statements have been omitted and, therefore, it is suggested that these interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the Companys audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010. In the opinion of management, these financial statements, which have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the SEC and U.S. GAAP for interim financial reporting, reflect all adjustments, which consisted only of normal recurring adjustments which were necessary to state fairly the results for the interim periods. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of those for a full fiscal year.
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. For us, the use of estimates is or could be a significant factor affecting the reported carrying values of flight equipment, inventory, intangibles, goodwill, investments, trade and notes receivable, deferred tax assets and accruals and reserves. Management considers information available from professional appraisers, where possible, to support estimates, particularly with respect to flight equipment. Despite managements best efforts to accurately estimate such amounts, actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
In the six months ended June 30, 2011, we changed our estimates of useful lives and residual values of certain older aircraft. The change in estimates is a result of the adverse market conditions for older fuel-inefficient aircraft that have negatively affected the useful lives and residual values for such aircraft. The effect on net income from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was to reduce net income by $4.6 million, or $0.03 basic and diluted earnings per share.
3. Recent accounting pronouncements
ASU 2011-04
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04 (ASU 2011-04), Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs, to improve the comparability of fair value measurements presented and disclosed in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and IFRS. The amendments in this update change the wording used to describe the requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements which include (1) those that clarify the FASBs intent about the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements, and (2) those that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurement. ASU 2011-04 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2011-05
In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2011-05 (ASU 2011-05), Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which gives the option to present the total of comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive net income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In either option, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. If a two statement approach is used, the statement of other comprehensive income should immediately follow the statement of net income. This update eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in shareholders equity. It also requires the presentation on the face of the financial statements of reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement (s) where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. ASU 2011-05 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and should be applied retrospectively. The adoption of ASU 2011-05 will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

4. Fair value measurements
Under ASC 820, the Company determines fair value based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. It is the Companys policy to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when developing fair value measurements, in accordance with the fair value hierarchy as described below. Where limited or no observable market data exists, fair value measurements for assets and liabilities are based primarily on managements own estimates and are calculated based upon the Companys pricing policy, the economic and competitive environment, the characteristics of the asset or liability and other such factors. Therefore, the results may not be realized in actual sale or immediate settlement of the asset or liability.
Under ASC 820, there is a hierarchal disclosure framework associated with the level of pricing observability utilized in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value.
The three broad levels defined by the ASC 820 hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1 Quoted prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date.
Level 2 Observable market data. Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets, liabilities (risk adjusted) and market-corroborated inputs, such as market comparables, interest rates, yield curves and other items that allow value to be determined.
Level 3 Unobservable inputs from the Companys own assumptions about market risk developed based on the best information available, subject to cost benefit analysis. Inputs may include the Companys own data.
When there are no observable comparables, inputs used to determine value are derived through extrapolation and interpolation and other Company-specific inputs such as projected financial data and the Companys own views about the assumptions that market participants would use.
The following table summarizes our financial assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2011 that we measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by ASC 820, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to their fair value measurement.

Our cash and cash equivalents, along with our restricted cash and cash equivalents balances, consist largely of money market securities that are considered to be highly liquid and easily tradable. These securities are valued using inputs observable in active markets for identical securities and are therefore classified as level 1 within our fair value hierarchy. Our derivative assets and liabilities included in level 2 consist of United States dollar denominated interest rate caps, swaps and floors and foreign currency forward contracts. Their fair values are determined by applying standard modeling techniques under the income approach to relevant market interest rates (cash rates, futures rates, swap rates), foreign currency exchange rates in effect at the period close to determine appropriate reset and discount rates. Changes in fair value are recognized immediately in income.

4. Fair value measurements (continued)
We also measure the fair value of certain assets and liabilities on a non-recurring basis, when GAAP requires the application of fair value, including events or changes in circumstances that indicate that the book value of assets may not be recoverable. Assets subject to these measurements include aircraft and aircraft engines. We record aircraft at fair value when we determine the carrying value may not be recoverable, in accordance with the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets standards and other accounting pronouncements requiring remeasurements at fair value. Fair value measurements for aircraft in impairment tests are based on level 3 inputs, which include the Companys assumptions and appraisal data as to future cash proceeds from leasing and selling aircraft. In the six months ended June 30, 2011, we recognized impairment of $12,733 on three of our aircraft and five of our engines.
Our financial instruments consist principally of notes receivable, restricted cash, derivative instruments, debt and cash and cash equivalents. The fair value of notes receivable, restricted cash and cash and cash equivalents approximates the carrying value of these financial instruments because of their short term nature. The fair values of our debt are estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, based on our current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. The book value and fair values of our financial instruments at June 30, 2011 are as follows:

AerCap Holdings N.V. Equity Grants
During the six months ending June 30, 2011, 935,000 AerCap Holdings N.V. restricted share units were granted under the NV Equity Plan. At June 30, 2011, there were 1,537,254 share options outstanding at an exercise price of $24.63 per share, 75,000 share options outstanding at an exercise price of $15.03 per share, 650,000 share options outstanding at an exercise price of $2.95 per share and 21,287 share options outstanding at an exercise price of $14.12 per share. At June 30, 2011, 1,212,254 outstanding options were vested and 1,071,287 options were subject to future time and performance-based vesting criteria. At June 30, 2011 1,760,000 restricted share units were outstanding and were all subject to future time and performance-based vesting criteria. Assuming that vesting criteria applicable to unvested share options and unvested restricted share units are met in the future, including performance criteria, and that no forfeitures occur, we expect to recognize share-based compensation charges related to NV Equity Grants of approximately $3.3 million during the remainder of 2011 and approximately $5.7 million, $5.2 million, $4.8 million and $1.7 million during the years 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015 respectively.

15. Commitments and contingencies
A detailed summary of our commitments and contingencies can be found in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on March 23, 2011 as amended by our Form 20-F/A filed with the SEC on April 20, 2011. There have been no material changes to our commitments and contingencies since the filing of those reports.
16. Subsequent events
On July 15, 2011, we entered into a purchase-leaseback arrangement with American Airlines (American) to finance up to 35 Boeing 737-800 Next Generation aircraft. AerCap will purchase the aircraft from American and immediately lease the aircraft back to American under a purchase-leaseback financing arrangement. The financing of each aircraft under this arrangement will be subject to certain terms and conditions. The aircraft will be delivered in the period 2011 through 2014. According to Ascend, the appraised value of the 35 aircraft is approximately $1.5 billion to $1.6 billion.
On August 2, 2011, we entered into an agreement with International Lease Finance Corporation (ILFC) for the sale of our wholly-owned subsidiary AeroTurbine, Inc. The closing of the AeroTurbine transaction, which is expected to occur in the coming months, remains subject to certain closing conditions and regulatory approvals. The purchase price for all of the outstanding shares of AeroTurbine is $228 million. AerCap will continue to guarantee until December 14, 2011 AeroTurbines obligations under its $425 million revolving credit facility, of which $309.4 million was drawn as of June 30, 2011. ILFC will, in turn, provide AerCap with a guarantee of any payments that AerCap may be required to make under the credit facility pursuant to such guarantee until such date. It is expected that AeroTurbine will seek to amend and restate the credit facility in its entirety prior to December 14, 2011. The sale of AeroTurbine will create a pre-tax book loss of approximately $20 million. In addition to the pre-tax book loss we will incur approximately $22 million in transaction expenses and a deferred tax asset of approximately $8 million will no longer be recoverable as a result of the sale. The total loss including all items on this transaction as described above will therefore be approximately $50 million.
On August 5, 2011, we announced that AerCaps Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program. The new repurchase program will run through December 30, 2011 and will allow total repurchases of up to $50 million in 2011, inclusive of amounts repurchased through June 30, 2011 under the previous program. In the second quarter we acquired 118,237 shares for a consideration of $1.4 million under the previous program.

Engine Portfolio
We maintain a portfolio of high-demand, modern and fuel-efficient engines. As of June 30, 2011, we owned 95 engines. Our engine portfolio consists primarily of CFM56 series engines, one of the most widely used engines in the commercial aviation market. As of June 30, 2011, 69 of our 95 engines were CFM56 series engines manufactured by CFM International.
Inventory
Our inventory consists of aircraft parts and engine parts. The aircraft parts and engine parts sales allow us to increase value of our aircraft and engine assets by putting each sub-component (engines, airframes and related parts) to its most profitable use. We sell aircraft parts and engine parts primarily to parts distributors and maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) service providers.
Critical Accounting Policies
There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies from those disclosed in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on March 23, 2011 as amended by our Form 20-F/A filed with the SEC on April 20, 2011.

· Basic rents increased by $99.2 million, or 24.8%, to $498.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $399.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in basic rents was attributable primarily to:
· the acquisition between January 1, 2010 and June 30, 2011 of 117 aircraft for lease with an aggregate net book value of $4.5 billion at the date of acquisition (including those acquired through the Genesis Transaction), partially offset by the sale of 20 aircraft, during such period, with an aggregate net book value
of $0.7 billion at the date of sale. The net increase in our aircraft portfolio (including those acquired through the Genesis Transaction) resulted in an $98.0 million increase in basic rents in the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010.
· an increase of $3.1 million in basic rents from our engine lease activities in the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010.
reduced by
· a decrease in basic rents of $1.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010 as a result of airline defaults which occurred in the year ended December 31, 2010.
· Maintenance rents and other receipts increased by $22.3 million, or 60.8%, to $59.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $36.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase was partially attributable to a $10.4 million increase in maintenance revenue as a result of airline defaults and a $4.4 million increase in maintenance revenue from our engine lease activities. The remaining $7.5 million increase in maintenance revenue primarily related to the early lease termination of two A319 aircraft. The early termination of the two A319 aircraft also resulted in corresponding leasing expenses of $7.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011.
· Sales revenue decreased by $355.1 million, or 69.5%, to $155.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $510.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010. In the six months ended June 30, 2011, we sold one A320 aircraft, two Boeing 757 aircraft, one MD-82 aircraft and nine engines, whereas in the six months ended June 30, 2010, we sold four A320 aircraft, three A330 aircraft, two Boeing 757 aircraft, one Boeing 767 aircraft and eight engines.
· Management fee revenue increased by $4.4 million, or 88.0%, to $9.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $5.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase was mainly attributable to the servicing of the joint venture with Waha, which we entered into on November 11, 2010.
· Interest revenue decreased by $1.5 million, or 51.7%, to $1.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $2.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease was mainly caused by the unwinding of our notes receivable in defeasance structures, which earned $1.7 million interest income in the six months ended June 30, 2010.
· Other revenue decreased by $0.2 million, or 6.7%, to $2.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $3.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010. Other revenue in both periods related primarily to the cash recovery of bankruptcy claims against previous lessees.
Depreciation. Depreciation increased by $47.2 million, or 31.5%, to $197.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $150.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010, due primarily to the acquisition of 117 new aircraft between January 1, 2010 and June 30, 2011 with a book value at the time of the acquisition of $4.5 billion. The increase was partially offset by the sale of 20 aircraft between January 1, 2010 and June 30, 2011, with a book value at the time of sale of $0.7 billion.
Asset Impairment. In the six months ended June 30, 2011, we recognized an impairment of $12.7 million. The impairment related to three older A320 aircraft and five engines. The impairment was triggered by adverse market conditions for older fuel-inefficient aircraft that have negatively affected the useful lives and residual values for such aircraft.
Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold decreased by $346.7 million, or 73.8%, to $123.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $469.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease in cost of goods sold is the result of the decrease in aircraft sales.
Interest on Debt. Our interest on debt increased by $22.0 million, or 17.3%, to $148.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $126.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010. The majority of the increase in interest on debt was caused by:
· an increase in the average outstanding debt balance to $6.6 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $5.7 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2010, resulting in a $16.2 million increase in our interest on debt;
· an increase in our average cost of debt, excluding the effect of mark-to-market movements, to 3.6% in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from 3.1% in the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in our average cost of debt is primarily the result of the closing of the Genesis Transaction and the use of fixed rate interest debt. The Genesis Transaction resulted in a $14.3 million increase in our interest on debt.
partially offset by
· a $10.7 million decrease in the non-cash recognition of mark-to-market charges on derivatives to a $23.5 million charge in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from a $34.2 million charge in the six months ended June 30, 2010;
Other Operating Expenses. Our other operating expenses increased by $13.6 million, or 41.1%, to $46.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $33.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010. The principal categories of our other operating expenses and their variances were as follows:

Our operating lease-in costs did not materially change in the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010.
Our leasing expenses increased by $10.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase is primarily due to an increase in expenses related to airline defaults between the two periods. We recognized expenses of $9.0 million related to airline defaults in the six months ended June 30, 2011, which expenses were incurred as a result of airline defaults which occurred in 2010 and 2011. In the six months ended June 30, 2010, we did not incur expenses as a result of airline defaults.
Our provision for doubtful notes and accounts receivable increased by $3.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase was primarily caused by the default of one of our lessees in the six months period ended June 30, 2011.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Our selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $26.5 million, or 40.9%, to $91.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $64.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase was primarily caused by a $24.5 million one-off charge relating to the buy-out of the Genesis portfolio servicing rights. The buy-out will generate savings of approximately $6.0 million per annum.
Income From Continuing Operations Before Income Taxes. For the reasons explained above, our income from continuing operations before income taxes decreased by $3.5 million, or 3.2%, to $106.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $110.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010.
Provision for Income Taxes. Our provision for income taxes decreased by $1.2 million or 12.4% to $8.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $9.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was 8.0% compared to 8.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Our effective tax rate in any period is impacted by the source and the amount of earnings among our different tax jurisdictions.
Net income of investments accounted for under the equity method. Our net income of investments accounted for under the equity method increased by $4.0 million or 333.3% to $5.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $1.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase is a result of the acquisition of our 40% interest in a joint venture with Waha as part of the Waha transaction which closed on November 11, 2010.
Non-controlling interest, net of tax. Our non-controlling interest net of tax decreased by $18.3 million to $0.3 million net income attributable to non-controlling interests in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $18.6 million net income attributable to non-controlling interests in the six months ended June 30, 2010, due primarily to the repurchase of Wahas 50% equity interest in AerVenture as part of the Waha transaction, which closed on November 11, 2010.
Net Income attributable to AerCap Holdings N.V.. For the reasons explained above, our net income attributable to AerCap Holdings N.V. increased by $19.6 million, or 23.5%, to $102.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $83.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010.
Liquidity and Access to Capital
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our cash balance at June 30, 2011 was $535.1 million, including restricted cash of $191.0 million, and our operating cash flow was $234.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. We currently generate significant cash flows from our aircraft and engine leasing business; however, since a significant portion of our owned aircraft are held through restricted cash entities, such as ALS I and ALS II and since a significant portion of our capital requirements are outside our restricted cash entities, our management analyzes our cash flow at both consolidated and unconsolidated levels to make sure that we have sufficient cash flows available to finance our capital needs in our restricted cash entities and outside our restricted cash entities. Our unused lines of credit at June 30, 2011 were approximately $0.8 billion. Our debt balance at June 30, 2011 was $6.5 billion and the average interest rate on our debt, excluding the effect of mark-to-market movements on our interest rate caps during the six months ended June 30, 2011, was 3.6%. Our debt to equity ratio was 2.8 to 1 as of June 30, 2011.
Aircraft and engine leasing is a capital intensive business and we have significant capital requirements. These commitments include requirements to make pre-delivery payments, as well as the requirement to pay the balance of the purchase price for aircraft on delivery. As of June 30, 2011, we had 27 aircraft under forward purchase commitments (including five Boeing 737 purchase rights). As a result, we will need to raise additional funds though a combination of accessing committed debt facilities and securing additional financing for pre-delivery and final delivery payment obligations and we may need to raise additional funds through selling aircraft or other aircraft investments, including participations in our joint ventures, and if necessary, generating proceeds from potential capital market transactions.
In the longer term, we expect to fund the growth of our business, including the acquisition of aircraft and engines, through internally generated cash flows, the incurrence of new bank debt, the refinancing of existing bank debt and other capital raising initiatives.

Cash Flows Provided by Operating Activities. Our cash flows provided by operating activities decreased by $66.0 million, or 22.0%, to $234.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $300.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 primarily due to a decrease in the changes in assets and liabilities, which was mainly caused by the timing of the payments of certain operating expenses, including $24.5 million in relation to the buy-out of the Genesis portfolio servicing rights, partially offset by an increase in our aircraft portfolio and related basic lease revenues.
Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities. Our cash flows used in investing activities decreased by $540.5 million, or 55.9%, to $427.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $967.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The decreased use of cash was primarily due to a decrease of $832.0 million in aircraft purchase activity (including intangible lease premiums) along with $68.8 million decrease in pre-delivery payments. In addition, the use of cash decreased as a result of a $104.8 million increase in the movement in restricted cash. The decrease in cash flows used in investing
activities was partially offset by a $366.4 million decrease in asset sale proceeds along with a $103.7 million decrease in our cash flow used in investing activities as a result of the closing of the Genesis Transaction in the six month period ended June 30, 2010.
Cash Flows Provided by Financing Activities. Our cash flows provided by financing activities decreased by $618.5 million, or 83.0%, to $126.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $745.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. This decrease in cash flows provided by financing activities was due to a decrease of $572.9 million in new financing proceeds, net of repayments and debt issuance costs resulting primarily from the decrease in aircraft purchase activity, a decrease of $11.8 million of net receipt of maintenance and security deposits and a decrease of $32.4 million in the capital contributions from non-controlling interests in the six months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010.
Indebtedness
As of June 30, 2011, our outstanding indebtedness totaled $6.5 billion and primarily consisted of export credit facilities, commercial bank debt, revolving credit debt, securitization debt and capital lease structures.

Contractual Obligations
Our contractual obligations consist of principal and interest payments on debt, executed purchase agreements to purchase aircraft, operating lease rentals on aircraft under lease-in/lease-out structures and rent payments pursuant to our office leases. We intend to fund our contractual obligations through our lines of credit and other borrowings as well as internally generated cash flows. We believe that our sources of liquidity will be sufficient to meet our contractual obligations.

As of June 30, 2011, we expect to make capital expenditures related to the purchase of seven A330 aircraft, five A320 aircraft and ten Boeing 737-800 aircraft through the balance of 2011 through 2015. As we implement our growth strategy and expand our aircraft and engine portfolio, we expect our capital expenditures to increase in the future. We anticipate that we will fund these capital expenditures through internally generated cash flows, draw downs on our committed revolving credit facilities and the incurrence of bank debt, and other debt and equity issuances.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2011, we were obligated to make sublease payments under four aircraft operating leases of aircraft with lease expiration dates between 2011 and 2013. We lease these four aircraft to aircraft operators. Since we are not fully exposed to the risks and rewards of ownership of these aircraft, we do not include these four aircraft on our balance sheet. In addition, we do not recognize a financial liability for our operating lease obligations under these leases on our balance sheet. Due to the fact that sublease receipts related to these four aircraft are insufficient to cover our lease obligations, we have recognized an onerous contract accrual on our balance sheet which is equal to the difference between the present value of the lease expenses and the present value of the sublease income discounted at appropriate discount rates. This accounting treatment, however, does not result in the same presentation as if we accounted for these aircraft as owned assets and the related operating lease obligations as debt liabilities.
We continue to have an economic interest in AerCo. This interest is not assigned any value on our balance sheet because we do not expect to realize any value for our investment. We also have other investments in companies or ventures in the airline industry which we obtain primarily through restructurings in our leasing business. The value of these investments is immaterial to our financial position.
We have entered into three joint ventures, AerDragon (25%), AerData (43%) and a 40% joint venture with Waha (AerLift), which do not qualify for consolidated accounting treatment. The assets and liabilities of these joint venture are off our balance sheet and we only record our net investment under the equity method of accounting.
INDEBTEDNESS
A detailed summary of the principal terms of our indebtedness can be found in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on March 23, 2011 as amended by our Form 20-F/A filed with the SEC on April 20, 2011. Following is a summary of significant changes to our indebtedness since our 20-F filing:
Revolving credit facility
General. On April 26, 2006, our consolidated subsidiary, AerFunding 1 Limited entered into a non recourse senior secured revolving credit facility in the aggregate amount of up to $1.0 billion with UBS Real Estate Securities Inc., UBS Securities LLC, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas and certain other financial institutions.
On June 10, 2010, the facility was amended and the revolving loans under the UBS revolving credit facility, which were divided into two classes, from the original three classes, were amended. The maximum advance limit on class A loans was amended to $705.5 million from $830.0 million and the maximum advance limit on class B loans was amended to $144.5 million from $170.0 million.
On June 9, 2011, the facility was further amended and restated. The maximum advance limit was amended to $775.0 million from $850.0 million, and the facility was converted to one single class of loans from previous two classes. The revolving term, during which new advances may be made, was amended from May 9, 2011 to June 9, 2013, and the term loan maturity date was extended from May 2014 to June 2016. The lenders to the amended and restated facility include UBS Securities LLC, Credit Suisse AG, Citibank N.A., Nomura Global Financial Products Inc. and Scotiabank Capital.
Borrowings under the revolving credit facility can be used to finance between 73.5% and 78.0% of the lower of the purchase price and the average appraised value of the acquired aircraft. Eligible aircraft under the facility include Airbus A320 family aircraft, A330 aircraft, Boeing 737 NG aircraft and 777 aircraft. In addition, required liquidity reserves are also funded by the lenders.
All borrowings under the revolving credit facility are subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions and restrictions on the purchase of aircraft that would result in our portfolio becoming too highly concentrated, with regard to aircraft type, aircraft age, lessee and geographical location.
Interest Rate. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility bear interest based on the Eurodollar rate plus the applicable margin. The following table sets forth the applicable margin for the revolving credit facility during the periods specified:

(1) The borrowing period is two years from June 9, 2011 to June 9, 2013, after which the loan converts to a term loan.
Additionally, we are subject to (a) a 0.50% fee on any unused portion of the loan commitment if greater than 50% of the total commitment is utilized or (b) a 0.75% fee on any unused portion of the unused commitment if less than 50% of the total commitment is utilized.
Payment Terms. Interest on the loans is due on a monthly basis. Principal on the loans amortizes on a monthly basis to the extent funds are available. All outstanding principal not paid during the term is due on the maturity date.
Prepayment. Advances under the revolving credit facility may be prepaid without penalty upon notice, subject to certain conditions. Mandatory partial prepayments of borrowings under the revolving credit facility are required:
· upon the sale of certain assets by a borrower, including any aircraft or aircraft engines financed or refinanced with proceeds from the revolving credit facility;
· upon the occurrence of an event of loss with respect to an aircraft or aircraft engine which are financed with proceeds from the revolving credit facility were repayments are made with the proceeds of insurance claims; and
· upon the securitization of any interests or leases with respect to aircraft or aircraft engines financed with proceeds from the revolving credit facility.
Maturity Date. The maturity date of the revolving credit facility is June 9, 2016.
Cash Reserve. AerFunding is required to maintain up to 6.0% of the borrowing value of the aircraft in reserve for the benefit of the lenders. Amounts held in reserve for the benefit of the lenders are available to the extent there are insufficient funds to pay required expenses, hedge payments or principal of or interest on the loans on any payment date. The amounts on reserve are funded by the lenders.
Collateral. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility are secured by, among other things, security interests in and pledges or assignments of equity ownership and beneficial interests in all of the subsidiaries of AerFunding, as well as by AerFundings interests in the leases of its assets.
Certain Covenants. The revolving credit facility contains covenants that, among other things, restrict, subject to certain exceptions, the ability of AerFunding and its subsidiaries to:
· sell assets;
· incur additional indebtedness;
· create liens on assets, including assets financed with proceeds from the revolving credit facility;
· make investments, loans, guarantees or advances;
· declare any dividends or other asset distributions other than to distribute funds paid to us out of the flow of funds under the revolving credit facility;
· make certain acquisitions;
· engage in mergers or consolidations;
· change the business conducted by the borrowers and their respective subsidiaries;
· make specified capital expenditures, other than those related to the purchase, maintenance or conversion of assets financed with proceeds from the revolving credit facility;
· own, operate or lease assets financed with proceeds from the revolving credit facility; and
· enter into a securitization transaction involving assets financed with proceeds from the UBS revolving credit facility unless certain conditions are met.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Our primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk associated with short and long-term borrowings bearing variable interest rates and lease payments under leases tied to floating interest rates. To manage this interest rate exposure, we enter into interest rate swap and cap agreements. We are also exposed to foreign currency risk, which can adversely affect our operating profits. To manage this risk, we enter into forward exchange derivatives.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements included in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on March 23, 2011 as amended by our Form 20-F/A filed with the SEC on April 20, 2011, which provide further information on our derivative instruments.
Interest Rate Risk
The rentals we receive under our leases are based on fixed and variable interest rates. We fund our operations with a mixture of fixed and floating rate debt and finance lease obligations. An interest rate exposure arises to the extent that the mix of these obligations is not matched with our assets. This exposure is primarily managed through the use of interest rate caps, fixing rate debt, interest rate swaps and interest rate floors using a cash flow based risk management model. This model takes the expected cash flows generated by our assets and liabilities and then calculates by how much the value of these cash flows will change for a given movement in interest rates.
The table below provides information as of June 30, 2011 regarding our debt and finance lease obligations and their related interest rate exposure:

(1) Based on one-month LIBOR and three-month LIBOR as of June 30, 2011, which were 0.19% and 0.25% respectively.
Under our interest rate caps, we will receive the excess, if any, of LIBOR, reset monthly or quarterly on an actual/360 adjusted basis, over the strike rate of the relevant cap. The caps amortize based on a number of factors, including the expiration dates of the leases under which our lessees are contracted to make fixed rate rental payments and the three- or six-month LIBOR reset dates under our floating rate leases. Under our interest rate floors, we pay for the difference when the LIBOR rate, reset monthly or quarterly on an actual/360 adjusted basis, falls below the strike rate of the relevant floor.
The table below provides information as of June 30, 2011 regarding our derivative financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates on our borrowing, including our interest rate caps, swaps and floors. The table presents the average notional amounts and weighted average strike rates relating the interest rate caps, swaps and floors for the specified year. Notional amounts are used to calculate the contractual payments to be exchanged under the contract.

The variable benchmark interest rates associated with these instruments ranged from one to six-month LIBOR.
Our Board of Directors is responsible for reviewing and approving our overall interest rate management policies and transaction authority limits. Specific hedging contracts are approved by the treasury committee acting within the overall policies and limits. Our counterparty risk is monitored on an ongoing basis, but is mitigated by the fact that the majority of our interest rate derivative counterparties are required to cash collateralize in the event of their downgrade by the rating agencies below a certain level. Our counterparties are subject to the prior approval of the treasury committee.
Foreign Currency Risk and Foreign Operations
Our functional currency is the U.S. dollar. As of June 30, 2011, all of our aircraft leases and all of our engine leases were payable in U.S. dollars. We incur Euro-denominated expenses in connection with our offices in The Netherlands and Ireland. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, our aggregate expenses denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, such as payroll and office costs and professional advisory costs, were $33.0 million in U.S. dollar equivalents and represented 36.1% of total selling, general and administrative expenses. We enter into foreign exchange contracts based on our projected exposure to foreign currency risks in order to protect ourselves from the effect of period over period exchange rate fluctuations. Mark-to-market gains or losses on such contracts are recorded as part of selling, general and administrative expenses since most of our non-US denominated payments relate to such expenses. We do not believe that a change in foreign exchange rates will have material impact on our results of operations. However, the portion of our business conducted in foreign currencies could increase in the future, which could increase our exposure to losses arising from currency fluctuations.
PART II OTHER INFORMATION
Legal Proceedings
Transbrasil litigation
We leased an aircraft and two engines to Transbrasil S/A Linhas Areas (Transbrasil), a now defunct Brazilian airline, in the early 1990s. By 1998, Transbrasil had fallen behind on its financial obligations under its leases with AerCap, along with other leases it had entered into with General Electric Capital Corporation (GECC) and other affiliates of the General Electric Company (GE affiliates). GECAS was the servicer for all these leases at the time. In 1998 and 1999, GECC, the other GE affiliates and AerCap (the AerCap lessor companies and collectively the lessor companies) restructured the debts owed to them by Transbrasil. Certain promissory notes were issued by Transbrasil in connection with the restructuring. The promissory notes were not paid by Transbrasil and an enforcement action was commenced by GECC on behalf of the lessor companies for payment in 2001. Concurrently, GECC filed for the involuntary bankruptcy of Transbrasil. Transbrasil initiated a lawsuit in February 2001 claiming that the amounts owing under the promissory notes had in fact been paid and sought damages. In 2007, a ruling was made in favor of Transbrasil in its action initiated against the lessor companies. This decision was subsequently appealed. In February 2010, the appeal was denied. In April 2010, the decision against the lessor companies was published which ordered the lessor companies to pay Transbrasil double the amount of the promissory notes plus interest and monetary adjustments (for inflation) as well as damages incurred by Transbrasil as a result of the bankruptcy (the 2010 Judgment). The decision allowed the calculation of the amounts to be completed at a later stage. In June 2010, a special appeal was presented to the Brazilian court by the AerCap lessor companies based on grounds that certain matters of law were applied incorrectly in the ruling. At this time there is no decision from the court as to whether to admit the special appeal into the main proceedings. AerCaps Brazilian counsel believes AerCaps appeal is based on good grounds with a reasonable chance of success.
In July 2011, Transbrasil initiated provisionary enforcement proceedings of the 2010 Judgment and provided the courts their calculation of the amounts owed, which according to Transbrasil amounted to approximately $210 million in the aggregate for all lessor companies after application of the interest and monetary adjustments. The 2010 Judgment did not determine if there was joint and several liability. Of the aggregate amount that Transbrasil has calculated an amount of approximately $15 million is attributable to debts that are owed to the AerCap lessor companies, but Transbrasil did not differentiate between the amounts owed by each of the defendants. AerCap subsequently filed a motion opposing the provisionary enforcement proceedings asserting that the calculations are incorrect and there was no attempt to differentiate between the amounts owed by each of the defendants among other claims. We believe we have strong arguments to significantly reduce the amount calculated by Transbrasil and whether or not the AerCap lessor companies have any liability will be determined in the main proceedings. In August 2011, the judge suspended the enforcement proceedings. Transbrasil subsequently appealed against the suspension and this appeal is currently pending. In addition, Transbrasil initiated a procedure to ascertain the amount for which each of the defendants are liable as a result of the Transbrasil bankruptcy. The court appointed an expert to determine this amount and the AerCap lessor companies appointed an assistant expert. We believe we have strong arguments to convince the expert and the court that the AerCap lessor companies are not liable for any damages as a result of Transbrasils bankruptcy because, among other reasons, the AerCap lessor companies did not file for the involuntary bankruptcy of Transbrasil.
Our management, based on the facts and the advice of external legal counsel, has determined that is not necessary to make any provision for this litigation.
