Unless otherwise indicated, terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Prospectus.
| Issuers: | AerCap Ireland Capital Designated Activity Company and AerCap Global Aviation Trust | |
| Notes Offered: | 1.750% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “Notes”) | |
| Ratings1: | Baa3 / BBB / BBB- (Moody’s / S&P / Fitch) | |
| Distribution: | SEC Registered | |
| Trade Date: | January 6, 2021 | |
| 1 | These ratings have been provided by Moody’s, S&P and Fitch. A securities rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities, may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time and each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. |
| Settlement Date: | January 13, 2021 (T+5)
We expect that delivery of the Notes will be made to investors on or about January 13, 2021, which will be the fifth business day following the date hereof (such settlement cycle being referred to as “T+5”). Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the Notes prior to the second business day before delivery of the Notes hereunder will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes will initially settle in T+5, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the Notes who wish to trade the Notes prior to the second business day before the date of delivery should consult their advisors. | |
