EXPLANATORY NOTE
AerCap Holdings N.V. (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to the Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “Original Form 20-F”), as filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 30, 2022 (the “Original Filing Date”), as an exhibits-only filing, solely to update the Form 20-F to provide Exhibit 2.7 and Exhibit 2.8 and to amend the exhibit index pursuant to Item 19 of Form 20-F.
Except as described above, no changes have been made to the Original Form 20-F, and this Amendment No. 1 does not modify, amend or update the financial or other information contained in the Original Form 20-F. This Amendment No. 1 does not reflect any events that have occurred on or after the Original Filing Date. Among other things, the Company has not revised forward-looking statements made in the Original Form 20-F to reflect events that occurred or facts that became known to the Company after the Original Filing Date. Therefore, this Amendment No. 1 should be read in conjunction with the Original Form 20-F and any other documents that the Company has filed with the SEC on or after the Original Filing Date.
Pursuant to Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), this Amendment No. 1 also includes as exhibits the certifications of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Because no financial statements have been included in this Amendment No. 1 and this Amendment No. 1 does not contain or amend any disclosure with respect to Item 15 of Form 20-F, paragraphs 3, 4, and 5 have been omitted from such certifications. The Company is not including certifications pursuant to Section 1350 of Chapter 63 of Title 18 of the United States Code (18 U.S.C. 1350) because no financial statements are filed with this Amendment No. 1.
This Amendment No. 1 consists solely of the cover page, this explanatory note, the exhibit index and the exhibits filed herewith.
We have filed the following documents as exhibits to this annual report:
