AerCap Aviation Solutions B.V. F-3ASRAutomatic shelf registration (foreign)

each copy of a document conforms to the original, each original is authentic, and each signature is the genuine signature of the individual purported to have placed that signature;

if any signature under any document is an electronic signature (as opposed to a handwritten (“wet ink”) signature) only, the method used for signing is sufficiently reliable;

each Deed of Incorporation is a valid notarial deed and (where applicable) each Deed of Incorporation has been executed on the basis of a valid declaration of no objection (verklaring van geen bezwaar);

(i) at all relevant times no regulations (reglementen) have been adopted by any corporate body of any Dutch Company, other than the Board Regulations, (ii) the Old Board Regulations were in force on 7 October 2021 and on the date of the Indenture, (iii) the Old Holdings Articles of Association were in force on 7 October 2021 and on the date of the Indenture, (iv) the New Holdings Articles of Association are currently in force and (v) the Solutions Articles of Association are currently in force and have been in force since the date they are dated. The Extracts support items (iv) and (v) of this assumption in respect of the New Holdings Articles of Association and the Solutions Articles of Association;

none of the Dutch Companies has (i) been dissolved (ontbonden), (ii) ceased to exist pursuant to a merger (fusie) or a division (splitsing), (iii) been converted (omgezet) into another legal form, either national or foreign, (iv) had its assets placed under administration (onder bewind gesteld), (v) been declared bankrupt (failliet verklaard), been granted a suspension of payments (surseance van betaling verleend), or started or become subject to statutory proceedings for the restructuring of its debts (akkoordprocedure), (vi) been subjected to any intervention, recovery or resolution measure pursuant to the BRRD, the SRM Regulation or the DFSA, as applicable or (vii) been made subject to similar proceedings in any jurisdiction or otherwise been limited in its power to dispose of its assets. The Extracts and our inquiries of today with the Insolvency Registers support the items (i) through (v) (except for any statutory proceedings for the restructuring of debts (akkoordprocedure) that have not, or not yet, been filed in the Insolvency Registers) of this assumption. However, this information does not constitute conclusive evidence that the events set out in items (i) through (v) have not occurred;

the resolutions recorded in the Resolutions are (and were at all relevant times) in full force and effect, and the factual statements made and the confirmations given in the Resolutions are (and were at all relevant times) complete and correct;

each Power of Attorney (i) is (and was at all relevant times) in full force and effect, and (ii) under any applicable law other than Dutch law, validly authorised and authorises the person or persons purported to be granted power of attorney, to represent and bind the relevant Dutch Company for the purposes stated therein.

AerCap Holdings N.V. has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a naamloze vennootschap (public company with limited liability).

AerCap Aviation Solutions B.V. has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid (private company with limited liability).

Each Dutch Company has the corporate power to enter into the Opinion Documents, to perform its obligations thereunder and, where it relates to AerCap Aviation Solutions B.V., to grant the Guarantee. None of the Dutch Companies violated or violates any provision of its Articles of Association by entering into the Opinion Documents, performing its obligations thereunder or, where it relates to AerCap Aviation Solutions B.V., by granting the Guarantee.

Each Dutch Company had and has taken all corporate action required by its Articles of Association and Dutch law in connection with entering into the Opinion Documents, the performance of its obligations thereunder and, where it relates to AerCap Aviation Solutions B.V., for the granting of the Guarantee.

The Registration Statement has been validly signed on behalf of each Dutch Company.

As Dutch lawyers we are not qualified or able to assess the true meaning and purport of the terms of the Opinion Documents under the applicable law and the obligations of the parties to the Opinion Documents and we have made no investigation of that meaning and purport. Our review of the Opinion Documents and of any other documents subject or expressed to be subject to any law other than Dutch law has therefore been limited to the terms of these documents as they appear to us on their face.

The Extracts do not constitute conclusive evidence of the facts reflected therein.

Pursuant to Article 2:7 DCC, any transaction entered into by a legal entity may be nullified by the legal entity itself or its liquidator in bankruptcy proceedings (curator) if the objects of that entity were transgressed by the transaction and the other party to the transaction knew or should have known this without independent investigation (wist of zonder eigen onderzoek moest weten). The Dutch Supreme Court (Hoge Raad der Nederlanden) has ruled that in determining whether the objects of a legal entity are transgressed, not only the description of the objects in that legal entity’s articles of association (statuten) is decisive, but all (relevant) circumstances must be taken into account, in particular whether the interests of the legal entity were served by the transaction. Based on the objects clause contained in the Articles of Association, we have no reason to believe that by entering into the Opinion Documents any Dutch Company would transgress the description of the objects contained in its Articles of Association. However, we cannot assess whether there are other relevant circumstances that must be taken into account, in particular whether the interests of the Dutch Companies are served by entering into the Opinion Documents since this is a matter of fact.

In order to increase the effectiveness of these tools and powers, certain restrictions may be imposed on the exercise of the rights or performance of the obligations of the parties under the Opinion Documents in the event of the use of such tools and powers.
