– 13 –

damage or expense purchased any of the Securities that are the subject thereof if a copy of the Pricing Disclosure Package was not conveyed to such person for purposes of Sections 12(a)(2) and 17(a)(2) of the Securities Act at or prior to the Applicable Time and the untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in such Preliminary Prospectus was corrected in the Pricing Disclosure Package.

Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Issuer and the Guarantors, their respective directors, their respective officers who sign the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls each of the Issuer or the Guarantors within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Issuer and the Guarantors to each Underwriter, but, with respect to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus, the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Issuer or the Guarantors shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, only with reference to information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Issuer or the Guarantors in writing by such Underwriter through you expressly for use in such document.

In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to either of the two preceding paragraphs, such person (hereinafter called the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (hereinafter called the “indemnifying party”) in writing (or by facsimile and confirmed in writing) but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement, and the indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel, (ii) the indemnifying party has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party or (iii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all such indemnified parties, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Such firm shall be designated in writing by the Representatives named in the applicable Pricing Agreement in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to the second preceding paragraph and by the Issuer and the Guarantors in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to the first preceding paragraph. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any

– 14 –

settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there shall be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the third sentence of this paragraph, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceedings.

If the indemnification provided for in the first or second paragraph of this Section VIII is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Issuer and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Issuer and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and of the Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Issuer and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and of the Underwriters, on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Issuer and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the applicable Pricing Prospectus, bear to the aggregate public offering price of the Securities. The relative fault of the Issuer and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and of the Underwriters, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Issuer and the Guarantors, on the one hand, or by the Underwriters, on the other hand, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

– 15 –

The Issuer, the Guarantors and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section VIII were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section VIII, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section VIII are several in proportion to the respective principal amounts of Securities purchased by each of such Underwriters and not joint. The remedies provided for in this Section VIII are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section VIII and the representations and warranties of the Issuer and the Guarantors contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or any person controlling any Underwriter or by or on behalf of any of the Issuer, the Guarantors, their respective officers or directors or any other person controlling the Issuer or the Guarantors and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Securities.

IX.

Any Pricing Agreement shall be subject to termination in your discretion, by notice given to the Issuer and the Guarantors, if (a) after the execution and delivery of such Pricing Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on or by, as the case may be, any of Euronext Brussels, the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., the Chicago Board of Options Exchange, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange or the Chicago Board of Trade; (ii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared (x) in New York by either Federal or New York State authorities or (y) in Belgium by either the Belgian authorities or the European Central Bank or (iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis that, in your reasonable judgment, is material and adverse and (b) in the case of any of the events specified in clause (a)(i) through (ii), such event singly or together with any other such event makes it, in your reasonable judgment, after consultation with the Issuer and the Guarantors, impracticable to market the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Pricing Prospectus and Prospectus.

– 16 –

This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto.

If, on the Closing Date, any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities that it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder and under the applicable Pricing Agreement on such date, and the aggregate principal amount of Securities which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more than one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be purchased on such date, the other Underwriters shall be obligated severally in the proportions that the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule I to the applicable Pricing Agreement bears to the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Underwriters, or in such other proportions as you may specify, to purchase the Securities which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date; provided that in no event shall the principal amount of Securities that any Underwriter has agreed to purchase pursuant to the applicable Pricing Agreement be increased pursuant to this Section X by an amount in excess of one-tenth of such principal amount of Securities without the written consent of such Underwriter. If, on the Closing Date, any Underwriter or Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities which it or they have agreed to purchase under the applicable Pricing Agreement on such date, and the aggregate principal amount of Securities with respect to which such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be purchased on such date, and arrangements satisfactory to you, the Issuer and the Guarantors for the purchase of such Securities are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter, either Issuer or the Guarantors. In any such case either you, the Issuer or the Guarantors shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date but in no event for longer than seven days, in order that the required changes, if any, in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Any action taken under this paragraph shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.

If this Agreement or a Pricing Agreement shall be terminated by the Underwriters, or any of them, because of any failure or refusal on the part of an Issuer or the Guarantors to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement or such Pricing Agreement, or if for any reason an Issuer or the Guarantors shall be unable to perform their respective obligations under this Agreement or such Pricing Agreement, the Issuer or the Guarantors will reimburse the Underwriters or such Underwriters as have so terminated this Agreement or such Pricing Agreement with respect to themselves, severally, for all out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of their counsel) reasonably and properly incurred by such Underwriters in connection with this Agreement or such Pricing Agreement or the offering contemplated hereunder or thereunder.

– 17 –

XI.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. The Issuer and the Guarantors have appointed AB InBev Services LLC, 250 Park Avenue, 2nd Floor, New York, New York 10177 as their authorized agent (the “Authorized Agent”) upon which process may be served in any action based on this Agreement that may be instituted in any state or federal court in the City, County and State of New York by any Underwriter or by any person controlling any Underwriter, and expressly accepts the jurisdiction of any such court in respect of such action. Such appointment shall be irrevocable for a period of three years from and after the Closing Date unless and until a successor Authorized Agent shall be appointed and such successor shall accept such appointment for the remainder of such three-year period. The Issuer and the Guarantors represent to each of the Underwriters that they have notified the Authorized Agent of such designation and appointment and that Authorized Agent has accepted the same in writing. The Issuer and the Guarantors will take any and all action, including the filing of any and all documents and instruments, that may be necessary to continue such appointment or appointments in full force and effect as aforesaid. Service of process upon the Authorized Agent and written notice of such service to the Issuer or the Guarantors (mailed or delivered as aforesaid) shall be deemed, in every respect, effective service of process upon the Issuer or the Guarantors. Any action based on this Agreement may be instituted by any Underwriter against the Issuer or the Guarantors in any state or federal court in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York, United States of America.

XII.

In all dealings hereunder, you shall act on behalf of each of the Underwriters, and the parties hereto shall be entitled to act and rely upon any statement, request, notice or agreement on behalf of any Underwriter made or given by you jointly or alone. All statements, requests, notices and agreements hereunder shall be in writing and, if to the Underwriters shall be delivered or sent by telex, facsimile transmission, e-mail or in writing delivered by hand, or by telephone (to be promptly confirmed by telex or fax) to you as the Representatives to the address specified in the applicable Pricing Agreement; and if to the Issuer or the Guarantors shall be delivered or sent by telex, facsimile transmission, e-mail or in writing delivered by hand, or by telephone (to be promptly confirmed by telex or fax) to the address of the Issuer or the Guarantors, as the case may be, set forth in the applicable Pricing Agreement. Any such statements, requests, notices or agreements shall take effect upon receipt thereof. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure solely to the benefit of, the Underwriters, the Issuer and the Guarantors and, to the extent provided in Section VIII hereof, the officers and directors of the Issuer and the Guarantors and each person who controls an Issuer, the Guarantors or any Underwriter, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, and no other person shall acquire or have the right under or by virtue of this Agreement. No purchaser of any of the Securities from any Underwriter shall be deemed a successor or assign by reason merely of such purchase. Time shall be of the essence of this Agreement.

– 18 –

The Issuer and each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that (i) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement and any Pricing Agreement is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Issuer and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading to such transaction each Underwriter is acting solely as a principal and not the agent or fiduciary of the Issuer or any Guarantor, (iii) no Underwriter has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Issuer or any Guarantor with respect to the offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Issuer or any Guarantor on other matters) or any other obligation to the Issuer or any Guarantor except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement and (iv) the Issuer and the Guarantors have consulted their own legal and financial advisors to the extent they deem appropriate. The Issuer and each Guarantor agrees that it will not claim that the Underwriter, or any of them, has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Issuer or any Guarantor, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This is with reference to the registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and offering of $[•] aggregate principal amount of [•]% Notes due [•] (the “Securities”) of Anheuser-Busch InBev Worldwide Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), and the related guarantees thereof (the “Guarantees”) by Anheuser-Busch InBev SA/NV, a public limited liability company organized under the laws of Belgium (the “Parent Guarantor”), and Brandbrew S.A., a société anonyme with its registered office in Luxembourg, Brandbev S.à r.l., a société à responsabilité limitée with its registered office in Luxembourg, Cobrew NV, a naamloze vennootschap with its registered office in Belgium, Anheuser-Busch InBev Finance Inc., a Delaware corporation and Anheuser-Busch Companies, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Anheuser-Busch” and together with Brandbrew S.A., Brandbev S.à r.l., Cobrew NV and Anheuser-Busch InBev Finance Inc., the “Subsidiary Guarantors”).

To each of the several Underwriters listed on Schedule B

As Representatives of the several Underwriters.

The Registration Statement relating to the Securities and the Guarantees (File No. 333-277873) (the “Registration Statement”) was filed on Form F-3, in accordance with procedures of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) permitting a delayed or continuous offering of securities pursuant thereto and, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment, document incorporated by reference therein or prospectus supplement that provides information relating to the terms of the securities and the manner of their distribution. The Securities and the Guarantees have been offered by the Prospectus, dated March 13, 2024 (the “Basic Prospectus”), as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, dated March [•], 2024 (the “Prospectus Supplement”), which updates or supplements certain information contained in the Basic Prospectus. The Basic Prospectus, as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, does not necessarily contain a current description of the Issuer’s and the Parent Guarantor’s business and affairs since it provides information as of its date and, pursuant to Form F-3, it incorporates by reference certain documents filed with the Commission that contain information as of various dates.

As United States counsel to the Issuer, Anheuser-Busch InBev Finance Inc., Anheuser-Busch and the Parent Guarantor, we reviewed the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement and the documents listed in Schedule A (those listed documents, taken together with the Basic Prospectus, being referred to herein as the “Pricing Disclosure Package”) and participated in discussions with your representatives and those of the Issuer, Anheuser-Busch InBev Finance Inc., Anheuser-Busch and the Parent Guarantor, their accountant and the Parent Guarantor’s and Subsidiary Guarantors’ Belgian and Luxembourg counsel. Between the date of the Prospectus Supplement and the time of delivery of this letter, we participated in further discussions with your representatives and those of the Issuer, Anheuser-Busch InBev Finance Inc., Anheuser-Busch and the Parent Guarantor concerning certain matters

relating to the Issuer, Anheuser-Busch InBev Finance Inc., Anheuser-Busch and the Parent Guarantor and reviewed certificates of certain officers of the Issuer, Anheuser-Busch InBev Finance Inc., Anheuser-Busch and the Parent Guarantor, letters and reports addressed to you from the accountant for the Parent Guarantor and opinions addressed to you from the Parent Guarantor’s and Subsidiary Guarantors’ Belgian and Luxembourg counsel. On the basis of the information that we gained in the course of the performance of the services referred to above, considered in the light of our understanding of the applicable law (including the requirements of Form F-3 and the character of the prospectus contemplated thereby) and the experience we have gained through our practice under the Securities Act, we confirm to you that, in our opinion, the Registration Statement, as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement, and the Basic Prospectus, as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement, appeared on their face to be appropriately responsive, in all material respects relevant to the offering of the Securities, to the requirements of the Securities Act, the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 and the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder. Also, we confirm to you that the statements contained (i) under the captions “Description of Debt Securities and Guarantees” in the Basic Prospectus and “Description of the Notes” in the Prospectus Supplement insofar as they relate to the provisions of the indenture therein described, (ii) under the captions “Taxation—United States Taxation of Debt Securities” in the Basic Prospectus and “United States Taxation” in the Prospectus Supplement insofar as they relate to the provisions of United States Federal income tax law therein described, and (iii) under the caption “Underwriting” in the Prospectus Supplement, insofar as they relate to the provisions of the Pricing Agreement, dated March [•], 2024 among the Company, the Parent Guarantor, the

Subsidiary Guarantors and you, therein described, and in each case insofar as relevant to the offering of the Securities, constitute a fair and accurate summary of such provisions in all material respects as of March 13, 2024 (in the case of the Basic Prospectus) and as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement and the time of delivery of this letter (in the case of the Basic Prospectus as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement).

Further, nothing that came to our attention in the course of such review has caused us to believe that, insofar as relevant to the offering of the Securities,

(a) the Registration Statement, as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or

(b) the Pricing Disclosure Package, as of [•]:[•] p.m., New York City time, on March [•], 2024, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or

(c) the Basic Prospectus, as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

We also advise you that nothing that came to our attention in the course of the procedures described in the second sentence of the first preceding paragraph has caused us to believe that, insofar as relevant to the offering of the Securities, the Basic Prospectus, as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, as of the time of delivery of this letter, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

The limitations inherent in the independent verification of factual matters and the character of determinations involved in the registration process are such, however, that we do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Prospectus Supplement except to the extent specifically noted in the fourth sentence of the second preceding paragraph. Also, we do not express any opinion or belief as to the financial statements or other financial data derived from accounting records contained in the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Prospectus Supplement, as to management’s report of its assessment of the effectiveness of the Parent Guarantor’s internal control over financial reporting or the auditors’ report as to the effectiveness of the Parent Guarantor’s internal control over financial reporting, each as included in the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Prospectus Supplement, or as to the statement of the eligibility of the Trustee under the Indenture under which the Securities are being issued.

This letter is furnished by us, as United States counsel to the Issuer, Anheuser-Busch InBev Finance Inc., Anheuser-Busch and the Parent Guarantor, to you, as Representatives of the several Underwriters, solely for the benefit of the Underwriters in their capacity as such and may not be relied upon by any other person.

2.	OPINIONS

We are of the opinion that:

2.1	Corporate existence

2.1.1

Each Belgian Guarantor is a naamloze vennootschap / société anonyme duly incorporated in Belgium and validly existing under Belgian law and has the capacity and power to enter into each of the Opinion Documents to which it is a party and to exercise its rights and perform its obligations under those Opinion Documents. Any grounds of nullity or liquidation of a Belgian Guarantor that might exist would operate without retrospective effect.

2.1.2

All corporate action required to authorise the execution by each Belgian Guarantor of each of the Opinion Documents to which it is a party and the exercise by it of its rights and the performance by it of its obligations under those Opinion Documents has been duly taken.

2.2	Due execution

2.2.1

[Each Opinion Document to which a Belgian Guarantor is a party (other than, in respect of Cobrew NV, the Base Indenture) has been duly executed on its behalf by Ms. Ann Randon and Mr. Jan Vandermeersch.

2.2.2

The Base Indenture has been duly executed on behalf of Cobrew NV by Ms. Christine Delhaye and Mr. Jan Vandermeersch.]

2.3	Conflict

Neither the execution nor the delivery of any Opinion Document by the Belgian Guarantors nor the performance of the obligations of the Belgian Guarantors under the Opinion Documents conflict with or will conflict with:

2.3.1

any present law or regulation having the force of law in Belgium and applying generally to Belgian companies; or

2.3.2

any term of the statutes of the Belgian Guarantors.

- 5 -


		CLIFFORD CHANCE LLP

2.4	Legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations

In any proceedings taken in Belgium for the enforcement of any of the Opinion Documents, the obligations expressed to be assumed by each of the Belgian Guarantors in the Opinion Documents to which it is a party would be recognised by the courts of Belgium as its legal, valid and binding obligations and would be enforceable in the courts of Belgium.

2.5	Further acts

Under Belgian law it is not necessary that the Opinion Documents be filed, recorded, registered or enrolled with any court or other governmental or regulatory authority, or that any consent, authorisation, license or approval be obtained from any such governmental or regulatory authority, or that any other acts, conditions or things be done, fulfilled or performed in order to ensure the legality, enforceability, validity or admissibility in evidence of the Opinion Documents or to enable any of the Belgian Guarantors lawfully to enter into, exercise its rights or perform its obligations under the Opinion Documents to which it is a party or for the Issuer to proceed with the issue of the Notes.

2.6	Registration, stamp and other documentary duties

2.6.1

No Belgian documentary duties, stamp duties, registration duties or other documentary taxes are payable upon or in connection with the Opinion Documents or their execution and delivery.

2.6.2

No Holder shall become liable for any Belgian documentary duties, stamp duties, registration duties or other documentary taxes merely by reason of the acquisition, ownership or disposal by it of any Notes.

2.7	Tax disclosure

Subject to the qualification that the statements under the heading “Taxation / Belgian Taxation” in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus Supplement are a summary and do not deal with all possible circumstances, those statements are true and correct in all material respects.

2.8	Governing law

2.8.1

In any proceedings taken in Belgium for the enforcement of the contractual obligations of the Belgian Guarantors under any Opinion Document, the courts of Belgium would give effect to the choice of New York law as the governing law of each of the Opinion Documents, subject to, and in accordance with, the provisions of Regulation (EC) No 593/2008 of 17 June 2008 on the law applicable to contractual obligations.

2.8.2

In any proceedings taken in Belgium for the enforcement of any non-contractual obligations of the Belgian Guarantors arising from or in connection with any Opinion Document, the Belgian courts would give effect to the parties’ agreement to submit to New York law any non-contractual obligations arising from or in connection with the Opinion Documents, subject to, and in accordance with, Regulation (EC) No 864/2007 of 11 July 2007 on the law applicable to non-contractual obligations (the “Rome II Regulation”) provided that the non-contractual obligation is within the scope of the Rome II Regulation, the provision of the Opinion Document setting out the choice was freely negotiated and all the parties to the Opinion Documents are pursuing a commercial activity.

2.9	Submission to jurisdiction

The submission to the jurisdiction of any New York State court or United States federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York by any Belgian Guarantor in the Indenture, and to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court in the City, County and State of New York by any Belgian Guarantor in the Pricing Agreement, would be recognised by the Belgian courts subject to, and in accordance with, the provisions of Regulation (EU) No 1215/2012 of 12 December 2012 on jurisdiction and the recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters (the “Brussels I Regulation (Recast)”).

2.10	Enforcement of foreign judgment

A judgment obtained in any New York State court or United States federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York in connection with the Indenture, or in any state or federal court in the City, County and State of New York in connection with the Pricing Agreement, would be recognised and enforced by the courts of Belgium without review on the merits subject to the conditions specified in Articles 22 to 25 of the Code of International Private Law.

All payments by any Belgian Guarantor under the Opinion Documents in its capacity as a Guarantor may be made without deduction on account of any taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of Belgium or any political sub-division thereof or any authority thereof or therein, provided that (a) such payments are not made through any intermediary in Belgium, (b) such payments are made through a regulated intermediary in Belgium to a non-resident that does not allocate the payment to a permanent establishment in Belgium, subject to the submission of an appropriate tax affidavit, (c) the recipient of such payments is a resident corporate entity or a Belgian permanent establishment of a non-resident corporate entity, subject to the submission of an appropriate tax affidavit, or (d) certain other conditions are satisfied.

It is not necessary under Belgian law in order to enable any Underwriter or the Trustee to enforce its rights under the Opinion Documents to which it is a party, or by reason only of the execution and delivery of these Opinion Documents or the performance by it of its obligations thereunder, that it should be licensed, authorised or otherwise entitled to carry on business in Belgium.

The person whose name and signature appears in the signature block of any executed Opinion Document is the person who signed such Opinion Document.

(c)

The Authorisation referred to in Schedule 2 (Documents and Enquiries) is correct in all respects.

2.	OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES OTHER THAN THE BELGIAN GUARANTORS

(a)

(b)

Each Other Party has duly authorised and executed the Opinion Documents to which it is a party.

3.	DOCUMENTS NOT GOVERNED BY BELGIAN LAW

(a)

The obligations expressed to be assumed by the parties to the Opinion Documents constitute their legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations under New York law.

(b)

- 13 -


		CLIFFORD CHANCE LLP

(c)

The choice of New York law to govern each Opinion Document is a valid choice under New York law.

(d)

The choice of New York law to govern any non-contractual obligations arising from or in connection with each Opinion Document is a valid choice under New York law.

4.	CORPORATE AUTHORITY OF THE BELGIAN GUARANTORS

(a)

The resolutions of the board of directors of Anheuser-Busch InBev SA/NV set out in the extract from the minutes referred to in Schedule 2 (Documents and Enquiries) were duly passed at a properly convened and quorate meeting of duly appointed directors of the relevant Belgian Guarantor, have not been amended or rescinded and are in full force and effect; the directors of who attended and voted at the said meeting have complied with all applicable provisions of article 7:96 or 7:97, as applicable, of the Belgian Code of Companies and Associations dealing with conflicts of interests of directors.

(b)

The written resolutions of the board of directors of Cobrew NV referred to in Schedule 2 (Documents and Enquiries) were approved by all directors of the relevant Belgian Guarantor, have not been amended or rescinded and are in full force and effect; the directors of Cobrew NV have complied with all applicable provisions of article 7:96 or 7:97, as applicable, of the Belgian Code of Companies and Associations dealing with conflicts of interests of directors.

(c)

The Authorisation has not been amended or rescinded and is in full force and effect.

(d)

None of the Belgian Guarantors has resolved to enter into liquidation, filed an application for bankruptcy, filed an application for or been subject to proceedings for judicial reorganisation or transfer under judicial authority, or been adjudicated bankrupt or annulled as a legal entity (our searches referred to in Schedule 2 (Documents and Enquiries) did not reveal anything to the contrary).

- 14 -


		CLIFFORD CHANCE LLP

(e)

The board of directors of each Belgian Guarantor has satisfied itself that its entry into the Opinion Documents to which it is a party would be of benefit to it and that the burdens resulting therefrom would not be disproportionate to those benefits, and the conclusions of the board in this respect are not unreasonable.

(f)

None of the Underwriters is a “related party” to the Belgian Guarantors (within the meaning of the international accounting standards adopted pursuant to Regulation 1606/2002 on the application of international accounting standards)

(g)

The entry by each Belgian Guarantor into any of the Opinion Documents to which it is a party is not an abnormal transaction entered into by it in the knowledge that so doing would prejudice its creditors.

5.	SEARCHES AND ENQUIRIES

There have been no amendments to the statutes of any Belgian Guarantor since the coordinated statutes referred to in Schedule 2 (Documents and Enquiries) and the powers referred to in the same Schedule 2 have not expired or been terminated (our searches referred to in that Schedule did not reveal anything to the contrary).

However, it is our experience that the searches and enquiries referred to in paragraph 2 of Schedule 2 (Documents and enquiries) may be unreliable. In particular, in the case of the searches and enquiries referred to in paragraphs 2(a), (b) and (c) of such Schedule, they are not conclusively capable of disclosing whether or not public insolvency proceedings have been commenced in Belgium, nor do they indicate whether or not non-public insolvency proceedings have been commenced in Belgium or insolvency proceedings have begun elsewhere.

6.	OTHER MATTERS

(a)

The Issuer has not and will not have its statutory seat, its principal place of business, its centre of management or administration or a permanent establishment in Belgium.

(b)

Neither the Issuer, nor the Belgian Guarantors or their Subsidiaries carries out activities related to the manufacturing, use, repair, exhibition for sale, sale, import, export, stockpiling or transport of cluster bombs, submunitions, inert munitions or armour plating containing depleted or industrial uranium, or anti-personnel mines.

		CLIFFORD CHANCE LLP

7.	OTHER DOCUMENTS

Save for those listed in Schedule 2 (Documents and Enquiries), there is no other agreement, instrument or other arrangement between any of the parties to the Opinion Documents which modifies or supersedes the Opinion Documents.

8.	OTHER LAWS

All acts, conditions or things required to be fulfilled, performed or effected in connection with the Opinion Documents under the laws of any jurisdiction other than Belgium have been duly fulfilled, performed and effected.

SCHEDULE 4

RESERVATIONS

The opinions in this Opinion Letter are subject to the following reservations.

1.	LIMITATIONS ARISING FROM INSOLVENCY LAW

The enforceability of the Opinion Documents is subject to the provisions of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally including statutes of limitation; in particular it is to be noted that:

(a)

any provision in the Opinion Documents providing for an event of default, an acceleration or another early termination of the Opinion Documents by reason of a party being subject judicial reorganisation or transfer under judicial authority proceedings may not be enforceable;

(b)

if any Belgian Guarantor is declared bankrupt and if the date of the Guarantee to which it is a party is within the pre-bankruptcy suspect period (the so-called “suspect period” may have a duration of up to six months before the declaration of bankruptcy, or more if the bankrupt entity was already in liquidation, whether formally or as a matter of fact), then there is a risk that its obligations as a Guarantor may be set aside on the grounds that they were assumed without adequate consideration;

(c)

the restrictions on the enforcement of its rights against other Guarantors and the Issuers imposed on each Belgian Guarantor pursuant to the Guarantee to which it is a party may cease to be effective upon the bankruptcy of the relevant Belgian Guarantor;

(d)

any power of attorney or other mandate would lapse on the bankruptcy of the party that granted it, and may lapse on an application for judicial reorganisation or transfer under judicial authority;

(e)

penalties and liquidated damages may be suspended upon the opening of judicial reorganisation or transfer under judicial authority proceedings and may not be enforceable in a judicial reorganisation;

- 17 -


		CLIFFORD CHANCE LLP

(f)

termination clauses may be subject to a mandatory 15 day grace period in a judicial reorganisation or transfer under judicial authority proceedings; and

(g)

a party subject to judicial reorganisation may in certain circumstances opt not to perform current contracts, without prejudice however to damages resulting from that non performance.

2.	ENFORCEABILITY OF CLAIMS

(a)

In this Opinion Letter “enforceable” means that an obligation is of a type which the Belgian courts may enforce. It does not mean that those obligations will be enforced in all circumstances in accordance with the terms of the Opinion Documents. In particular:

(i)

periods of grace for the performance of its obligations may be granted by the courts to a debtor who has acted in good faith;

(ii)

rights may not be exercised in an abusive manner, and a party may be denied the right to invoke a contractual right if so doing would be abusive;

(iii)

where any party is vested with a discretion or may determine a matter in its opinion, Belgian law may require such discretion to be exercised reasonably or such opinion to be based on reasonable grounds;

(iv)

a party to a contract may be able to avoid its obligations under that contract (and may have other remedies) where it has been induced to enter into that contract by coercion, abuse of circumstances or misrepresentation and the Belgian courts will generally not enforce an obligation if there has been fraud; and

(v)

any certificate, determination, calculation or other matter stated to be conclusive and/or binding by one party may nevertheless be subject to court review.

(b)

No opinion is given on any issue which may arise out of, or relate to, the giving of financial assistance pursuant to the Belgian Code of Companies and Associations, nor the consequences thereof on the enforceability of any Guarantee.

- 18 -


		CLIFFORD CHANCE LLP

3.	GOVERNING LAW

(a)

The Belgian courts may refuse to apply a provision of New York law if application of that provision of New York law would be manifestly incompatible with Belgian public policy.

(b)

The parties’ choice of New York law as the governing law of the Opinion Documents does not restrict the Belgian courts from applying the overriding mandatory provisions of Belgian law.

(c)

The Belgian courts may apply Belgian law despite the choice of New York law as the governing law of the Opinion Documents if it appears clearly impossible, in the course of the legal proceedings, to determine the substantive rules of the chosen law.

(d)

Where all other elements relevant to the situation at the time that the Opinion Documents were entered into are located in a jurisdiction other than the State of New York, the choice of New York law as the governing law of the Opinion Documents shall not prejudice the application by the Belgian courts of the provisions of the law of that other jurisdiction which cannot be derogated from by agreement.

(e)

Where all other elements relevant to the situation at the time that the Opinion Documents were entered into are located in one or more Member States of the European Union, the parties’ choice of New York law as the governing law of the Opinion Documents does not prejudice the application by the Belgian courts of provisions of the law of the European Union, where appropriate as implemented in Belgium, which cannot be derogated from by agreement.

(f)

The parties’ choice of New York law as the governing law of any non-contractual obligations of the Belgian Guarantors arising from or in connection with the Opinion Documents does not restrict the Belgian courts from applying provisions of Belgian law that are mandatory irrespective of the law otherwise applicable to the non-contractual obligation.

(g)

Where all the elements relevant to the situation at the time the event giving rise to the damage occurs are located in a country other than the State of New York, the parties’ choice of New York law as the governing law of any non-contractual obligations arising from or in connection with the Opinion Documents will not prejudice the application of provisions of the law of that other country which cannot be derogated from by agreement.

- 19 -


		CLIFFORD CHANCE LLP

(h)

Where all the elements relevant to the situation at the time the event giving rise to the damage occurs are located in one or more Member States of the European Union, the parties’ choice of New York law as the governing law of any non-contractual obligations arising from or in connection with the Opinion Documents will not prejudice the application by the Belgian courts of provisions of the law of the European Union, where appropriate as implemented in Belgium, which cannot be derogated from by agreement.

4.	JURISDICTION

(a)

Notwithstanding the provisions of the Indenture providing that any New York State court or United States federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York or the provisions of the Pricing Agreement providing that any state or federal court in the City, County and State of New York has jurisdiction in respect of claims brought by any Belgian Guarantor, the parties to the Opinion Documents may apply to Belgian courts for such provisional or protective measures as may be available (such as provisional attachments on assets located in Belgium, or summary proceedings to obtain an order for payment).

(b)

The courts of Belgium may refuse to give effect to the choice of jurisdiction referred to in paragraph 2.9 (Submission to jurisdiction) of this Opinion Letter if they expect that a foreign judgment rendered pursuant thereto will not be capable of recognition or enforcement in Belgium (as to which please refer to paragraph 2.10 (Enforcement of foreign judgment) of this Opinion Letter).

(c)

The courts of Belgium may accept jurisdiction despite the choice of jurisdiction referred to in paragraph 2.9 (Submission to jurisdiction) of this Opinion Letter if they are already seized with a closely connected matter, or if the dispute is closely connected with Belgium and litigation abroad appears impossible or unreasonable.

- 20 -


		CLIFFORD CHANCE LLP

(d)

If any proceedings are brought in the Belgian courts by any Belgian Guarantor or any other party to the Opinion Documents, the defendant is domiciled in a Member State of the European Union and the Belgian courts are competent on the basis of any of the grounds of jurisdiction set forth in the Brussels I Regulation (Recast), then there may be an argument that the Belgian courts must accept jurisdiction, notwithstanding the provisions of the Opinion Documents providing that the courts designated therein have jurisdiction in respect of claims brought by any Belgian Guaranor or that other party, subject to Articles 33 and 34 of the Brussels I Regulation (Recast) relating to lis pendens and related actions.

5.	ENFORCEMENT OF FOREIGN JUDGMENT

The Belgian courts may not recognise or enforce a judgment given by any New York State court or United States federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York or any state or federal court in the City, County and State of New York if to do so would breach the conditions specified in Articles 22 to 25 of the Code of International Private Law, which mainly require that the recognition or enforcement of the foreign judgment should not be a manifest violation of public policy, that the foreign courts must have respected the rights of the defence, that the foreign judgment should be final, and that the assumption of jurisdiction by the foreign court may not have breached certain principles of Belgian law.

6.	APPLICATION OF FOREIGN LAW

If any obligation under the Opinion Documents is or is to be performed in a jurisdiction outside Belgium, it may not be enforceable in the Belgian courts to the extent that performance would be illegal or contrary to public policy under the laws of the other jurisdiction. Further, the Belgian courts may give effect to any overriding provisions of the law of the place of performance insofar as they render the performance unlawful, or otherwise take into account the law of the place of performance in relation to the manner of performance and the steps to be taken in the event of defective performance.

7.	TAXATION

(a)

It should be noted that, in relation to payments by any Belgian Guarantor in its capacity as Guarantor, the opinion expressed in paragraph 2.11 (Withholding Taxes) of this Opinion Letter as to the absence of withholding tax is derived from an administrative guideline and a court case issued in a slightly different context, rather than from a clear rule of law specifically applicable to such a situation; we believe, however, that one can rely on the application of this administrative guideline and court case with a reasonable degree of confidence.

- 21 -


		CLIFFORD CHANCE LLP

(b)

Certain secondary market trades in securities conducted through an intermediary are subject to fiscal duties.

(c)

The obtaining of a judgment in Belgium or the declaration of enforceability of a foreign judgment by the courts of Belgium may give rise to a registration duty at the rate of 3% of the amount of the judgment or, when the enforcement of a foreign judgement is sought in Belgium pursuant to and in accordance with the Brussels I Regulation (Recast) and no prior declaration of enforceability is required, the Belgian ordinary registration duties will be due if the judgement is voluntarily presented for registration in Belgium.

8.	INDEMNITIES

(a)

Provisions for the recovery of legal fees incurred by a party may not be enforceable beyond a maximum amount set by royal decree.

(b)

Indemnification provisions in respect of fines or other criminal or administrative penalties may not be enforceable.

9.	MISCELLANEOUS MATTERS

(a)

Any term in the Opinion Documents which constitutes, or purports to constitute, a restriction on the choice of auditor of a Belgian Guarantor may have no effect.

(b)

The opinions expressed in this Opinion Letter are subject to the effects of any European Union or other sanctions or other similar measures implemented or effective in Belgium with respect to any person to which any such sanctions or other similar measures apply or which is otherwise the target of any such sanctions or other similar measures.

(c)

An electronic signature which constitutes a qualified electronic signature under the eIDAS Regulation has an equivalent effect to a handwritten signature and is, except in limited cases, valid for the execution of an agreement under private seal (acte sous seing privé / onderhandse akte). An electronic signature which is not a qualified electronic signature will not be equivalent to a handwritten signature but will, in case of a dispute as to its effects, not be dismissed in court merely on the ground that it is an electronic signature and the court will have a discretionary power to decide whether or not such electronic signature evidences the consent by the purported signatory to the relevant document, such question being a question of fact. We express no opinion as to the legal characterisation of any specific signature in electronic form.

(d)

The provisions of a Guarantee whereby the relevant Belgian Guarantor agrees to subordinate certain intra-group claims, and in certain circumstances to refrain from exercising subrogation rights, taking enforcement steps or demanding payment in respect of these intra-group claims will be recognised as constituting legal, valid and binding obligations as between the parties. There are doubts, however, as to whether these provisions will be effective against a liquidator in the insolvency of such Belgian Guarantor or against other third-party creditors of such Belgian Guarantor.

(e)

Enforcement action by a party established in Belgium may not be admissible before the courts if that party is not properly registered with the trade registry (Banque-Carrefour des entreprises / Kruispuntbank van Ondernemingen).

(f)

The delivery of securities in bearer form will not be allowed in Belgium.

(g)

The Notes may not be distributed in Belgium by way of an offer of securities to the public.

(h)

If an attorney has a conflict of interest with the interests of its principal when taking a legal action on behalf of the principal, such legal action may be null and void. An upfront ratification by a principal of actions that will be taken by its attorney on behalf of the principal, may not be enforceable.

(i)

The courts may demand that documents submitted in evidence be submitted in original, and be translated into the language of the proceedings (ie French or Dutch).

New USD [•],000,000 [•]% notes due [•] (the “Notes”) issued by Anheuser-Busch InBev Worldwide Inc. (the “Company”) on the date hereof.

We have acted as Luxembourg legal advisers of Anheuser-Busch InBev SA/NV (“ABI”) and the Luxembourg Obligors in connection with the issuance by the Company of the Notes (the “Transaction”).

1.	INTRODUCTION

1.1	Transaction Documents

The opinions given in this opinion letter (the “Opinion Letter”) relate to the following documents entered into in connection with the Transaction (the “Transaction Documents”):

1.1.1.

A New York law governed base indenture dated 4 April 2018 and entered into between, amongst others, the Company as issuer, ABI as parent guarantor, each Luxembourg Obligor as subsidiary guarantor and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. as trustee (the “Trustee”) (the “Base Indenture”).

1.1.2.

A seventeenth New York law governed supplemental indenture dated [21] March 2024 and entered into between, among others, the Company as issuer, ABI as parent guarantor, each Luxembourg Obligor as subsidiary guarantor and the Trustee, with respect to the Notes, in relation to the Base Indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture”).

1.1.3.

The New York law governed guarantees dated [21] March 2024 relating to, and endorsed to the Notes and entered into by each Luxembourg Obligor as subsidiary guarantor and ABI as parent guarantor (the “Guarantees”).

1.1.4.

The New York law governed pricing agreement relating to the Notes, dated [19] March 2024 and entered into between, among others, the Company, ABI, each Luxembourg Obligor as Subsidiary Guarantor and [[•], Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch and [•]] as representatives of the several underwriters (as listed therein) (the “Pricing Agreement”).

We have further reviewed a preliminary prospectus supplement dated [19] March 2024 and a final prospectus supplement dated [19] March 2024, relating to the Notes filed with the SEC (the “Prospectus Supplements”).

1.2	Defined terms and interpretation

Terms defined in the Transaction Documents shall have the same meaning in this Opinion Letter, unless otherwise defined herein (and in particular in paragraph 1.1 (Transaction Documents) and in Schedule 1 (Definitions)).

– 2 –

LOGO

Headings in this Opinion Letter are for ease of reference only and shall not affect its interpretation.

In this Opinion Letter, Luxembourg legal concepts are expressed in English terms and not in their original French terms. The concepts concerned may not be identical to the concepts described by the same English terms as they exist under the laws of other jurisdictions. This Opinion Letter may therefore only be relied upon under the express condition that any issues of interpretation arising thereunder will be governed by Luxembourg law.

1.3	Legal review

We have not reviewed any documents other than the Transaction Documents and the Corporate Documents, and this Opinion Letter does not purport to address any legal issues that arise in relation to such other documents that may be or come into force between the Parties, even if there is a reference to any such documents in the Transaction Documents or the Corporate Documents or on the impact such documents may have on the opinions expressed in this Opinion Letter.

1.4	Applicable law

The opinions given in this Opinion Letter are confined to and given on the basis of Luxembourg law as currently applied by the Luxembourg courts as evidenced in published case-law. We have made no independent investigation of any other laws for the purpose of this Opinion Letter and do not express or imply any opinion in relation to any such laws. In particular, as Luxembourg qualified lawyers we are not qualified nor in a position to assess the meaning and consequences of the terms of the Transaction Documents under the relevant foreign governing or applicable law and we have made no investigation into such laws as a basis for the opinions expressed hereafter and do not express or imply any opinion thereon, including in relation to any implied terms, statutory provisions referred to therein or any other consequences arising from the entry into or performance under such Transaction Documents under such laws. Accordingly, our review of the Transaction Documents has been limited to the terms of such documents as they appear on the face thereof without reference to their respective governing laws or any other applicable law (other than Luxembourg law).

The opinions given in this Opinion Letter are given on the basis that it is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Luxembourg and will be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of Luxembourg.

LOGO

1.5	Assumptions and reservations

The opinions given in this Opinion Letter are given on the assumptions set out in Schedule 3 (Assumptions) and are subject to the reservations set out in Schedule 5 (Reservations). The opinions given in this Opinion Letter are strictly limited to the matters stated in paragraph 2 (Opinions) and do not extend to any other matters.

2.	OPINIONS

We are of the opinion that:

2.1	Corporate existence

2.1.1

Brandbev is a company incorporated and existing in Luxembourg as a société à responsabilité limitée.

2.1.2

Brandbrew is a company incorporated and existing in Luxembourg as a société anonyme.

2.2	Capacity and authorisation

2.2.1

Each Luxembourg Obligor has the capacity and power to enter into each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party and to exercise its rights and to perform its obligations under those Transaction Documents.

2.2.2

All necessary corporate action has been taken to enable the Luxembourg Obligors validly to enter into and to perform their obligations under the Transaction Documents to which they are a party.

2.3	Due execution

Each of the Luxembourg Obligors has duly executed the Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

2.4	No Conflict

Neither the entry by each Luxembourg Obligor into the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, nor the performance by each Luxembourg Obligor of its obligations under those Transaction Documents constitute a violation of its Constitutional Documents or the provisions of the Law on Commercial Companies applicable to it.

2.5	Legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations

The obligations expressed to be assumed by the Luxembourg Obligors in the Transaction Documents to which they are a party would, if analysed by a Luxembourg court in proceedings commenced in Luxembourg, be recognised by a Luxembourg court as their legal, valid and binding obligations, enforceable in accordance with their terms.

– 4 –

LOGO

2.6	Governing law

The choice of the governing law expressed in the Transaction Documents will be recognised and given effect by the courts of Luxembourg (i) where the choice relates to contractual obligations, in accordance with, and subject to the provisions of the Rome I Regulation and (ii) if and to the extent the choice relates to non-contractual obligations in accordance with, and subject to the provisions of the Rome II Regulation and, in each case, in accordance with and subject to, the corresponding Luxembourg procedural and substantive law.

2.7	Jurisdiction

The submission by the Luxembourg Obligors to the jurisdiction of the Relevant Courts contained in the Transaction Documents is valid and binding (upon their terms) and a final judgment obtained in the Relevant Courts on or in respect of the Transaction Documents will be recognised and enforced by the courts of Luxembourg in accordance with general provisions of Luxembourg procedural law for the enforcement of foreign judgments where Regulation 1215/2012, the Lugano Convention or the 2005 Hague Convention do not apply. Pursuant to such rules, a Relevant Judgment would not directly be enforceable in Luxembourg. However, a Party who obtains a Relevant Judgment may initiate enforcement proceedings in Luxembourg (exequatur), by requesting the enforcement of such Relevant Judgment from the District Court (Tribunal d’Arrondissement), pursuant to Section 678 of the Luxembourg New Code of Civil Procedure. The District Court will authorise the enforcement in Luxembourg of the Relevant Judgment without re-examination of the merits, if it is satisfied that the following conditions are met:

(a) the Relevant Judgment is enforceable (exécutoire) in the respective jurisdiction of the Relevant Courts;

(b) the assumption of jurisdiction (compétence) of the Relevant Courts is founded according to Luxembourg private international law rules;

(c) the Relevant Court has acted in accordance with its own procedural rules and has applied to the dispute the substantive law which would have been applied by Luxembourg courts;

– 5 –

LOGO

(d) the principles of fair trial and due process have been complied with and in particular the judgment was granted following proceedings where the counterparty had the opportunity to appear, and if appeared, to present a defence; and

(e) the Relevant Judgment does not contravene Luxembourg public policy and has not been obtained fraudulently.

2.8	No Further acts

No further acts or conditions are required by Luxembourg law to be done, fulfilled and performed in order (a) to enable the Luxembourg Obligors lawfully to enter into, and perform the obligations expressed to be assumed by them in the Transaction Documents to which they are a party and (b) to make the Transaction Documents admissible in evidence in Luxembourg.

2.9	Registration and stamp duties

It is not necessary that any stamp, registration or similar tax be paid on the Transaction Documents.

2.10	License to carry on business

The Underwriters or the Trustee are not deemed to be resident or domiciled or resident for tax purposes in Luxembourg solely by reason of the execution, performance or enforcement of the Transaction Documents, except that the enforcement of the Transaction Documents may require an election of domicile in case of Luxembourg court proceedings for the purpose thereof.

2.11	Immunity

In any proceedings taken in Luxembourg in relation to the Transaction Documents, the Luxembourg Obligors will not be entitled to claim general immunity from suit or enforcement.

2.12	Luxembourg tax section – Prospectus Supplement

The statements of Luxembourg tax law contained in the section “TAXATION – Luxembourg Taxation” in the Prospectus Supplement are an accurate summary of Luxembourg tax law in respect of the Notes.

– 6 –

LOGO

3.	NO JUDICIAL OR ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEEDINGS

According to the Negative Certificates, no Decision opening Judicial or Administrative Proceedings against the Luxembourg Obligors has been registered with the RCS on the date stated therein. The Negative Certificates do not indicate whether a Decision has been taken or a Judicial or Administrative Proceeding has been opened. The registration of a Decision must be requested by the legally determined persons at the latest one month after the Decision has been rendered. As a consequence, a delay exists between the moment where the event rendering the registration with the RCS necessary occurs and the actual registration of the Decision in the RCS. It may furthermore not be excluded that no registration has occurred during the legally prescribed period of one month if no request for registration has been made. As a consequence, the Negative Certificates are not conclusive as to the opening and existence or not of Decisions or Judicial or Administrative Proceedings and should not be relied upon as such. The Negative Certificates do, for the avoidance of doubt, not purport to indicate whether or not a petition or order for any of the Judicial or Administrative Proceedings has been presented or made.

4.	SCOPE OF OPINION

We have not been responsible for advising any party to the Transaction other than ABI and the Luxembourg Obligors and the delivery of this Opinion Letter to any person other than ABI and the Luxembourg Obligors does not evidence an existence of any such advisory duty on our behalf to such person.

We express no opinion as to any taxation matters or transfer pricing matters generally or liability to tax which may arise or be suffered as a result of or in connection with the Transaction Documents or the Transaction, other than as mentioned in paragraphs 2.9 (Registration and stamp duties) and 2.12 (Luxembourg tax section – Prospectus Supplement) or on the impact which any tax laws may have on the opinions expressed in this Opinion Letter.

No opinion (except to the extent expressly opined upon herein) is expressed or implied in relation to the accuracy of any representation or warranty given by or concerning any of the parties to the Transaction Documents or whether such parties or any of them have complied with or will comply with any covenant or undertaking given by them or any obligations binding upon them. No opinion is expressed or implied in this Opinion Letter in relation to (i) any notes issued from time to time under the Base Indenture or their respective issuances or (ii) any guarantees issued from time to time under the Base Indenture (other than the Guarantees (as defined in paragraph 1.1.3 hereof), but only to the extent expressly opined upon herein).

Except in as far as the entry by the Luxembourg Obligors into and the performance by each of the Luxembourg Obligors of its obligations under the Transaction Documents is concerned, we express no opinion on any applicable licensing or similar requirements with respect to any specific transactions to be carried out under the Transaction Documents.

– 7 –

LOGO

We express no opinion on the applicability of or compliance with the Regulation (EU) No. 648/2012 on OTC derivatives, central counterparties and trade repositories (the “EMIR Regulation”), of Regulation (EU) No. 909/2014 on improving securities settlement in the European Union and on central securities depositories (the “CSD Regulation”), of Regulation (EU) No. 2015/2365 on transparency of securities financing transactions and of reuse (“SFTR Regulation”), or any obligations arising for the parties pursuant to each of the EMIR Regulation, the CSD Regulation and the SFTR Regulation, each as amended as well as any delegated acts or implementing regulations.

We express no opinion with respect to any data protection matters relevant to or referred to in the Transaction Documents.

This Opinion Letter does not contain any undertaking to update it or to inform the Addressees of any changes in the laws of Luxembourg or any other laws which would affect the content thereof in any manner.

5.	ADDRESSEES AND PURPOSE

This Opinion Letter is provided in connection with the Transaction and is addressed to and is solely for the benefit of the Addressees.

It may not, without our prior written consent, be relied upon for any other purpose or be disclosed to or relied upon by any other person save that it may be disclosed without such consent to:

any person to whom disclosure is required to be made (i) by applicable law or court order or (ii) pursuant to the rules or regulations of any supervisory or regulatory body;

The Parties entered into the Transaction Documents with bona fide commercial intent, at arm’s length and without any fraudulent intent or any intention to deprive of any benefit any other persons or parties (including creditors) or to breach or circumvent any applicable mandatory laws or regulations of any jurisdiction.

(j)

No moneys raised under or pursuant to the issuance of the Notes have been or will be used to finance or refinance an acquisition of or subscription to shares in Brandbrew.

7.	NO OTHER DOCUMENTS

Save for those listed in Schedule 3 (Documents), there is no other agreement, instrument or other arrangement between any of the Parties which modifies or supersedes any of the Transaction Documents.

SCHEDULE 5

RESERVATIONS

The opinions expressed in this Opinion Letter are subject to the following reservations.

1.	LIMITATIONS ARISING FROM INSOLVENCY LAW

(a)

The rights and obligations of the Parties under the Transaction Documents may be limited and the opinions expressed in this Opinion Letter may be affected by general principles and specific provisions of bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganisation, resolution, administration, reconstruction or other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally.

(b)

Any power of attorney and mandate, as well as any other agency provisions granted and all appointments of agents made by the Luxembourg Obligors (including any appointments made by way of security), explicitly or by implication, will terminate by law and without notice upon the Luxembourg Obligors’ bankruptcy (faillite) or any similar procedure.

(c)

The filing of claims and the taking of actions by the Trustee or the Underwriters on behalf of other parties may require the execution of additional documentation.

2.	ENFORCEABILITY OF CLAIMS

(a)

The rights and obligations of the Parties under the Transaction Documents may be limited by general principles of criminal law, including but not limited to criminal freezing orders.

(b)

Periods of grace for the performance of its obligations may be granted by the courts to a debtor who has acted in good faith.

(c)

Rights may not be exercised in an abusive manner, and a Party may be denied the right to invoke a contractual right if so doing was abusive.

(d)

Specific creditors benefit from privileged rights by virtue of Luxembourg law and may take precedence over the rights of other secured or unsecured creditors. For instance, the Luxembourg tax authorities, the Luxembourg social security institutions and the salaried employees benefit from a general privilege over movables in relation to specific claims determined by law; this general privilege in principle takes precedence over the privilege of any other secured creditors.

– 20 –

(e)

The remuneration of an agent or intermediary may be subject to review and reduction by a Luxembourg court if considered excessive in light of the circumstances.

(f)

Whilst, in the event of any proceedings being brought in a Luxembourg court in respect of a monetary obligation expressed to be payable in a currency other than Euro, a Luxembourg court would have power to give judgment expressed as an order to pay a currency other than Euro, enforcement of the judgment against any Party in Luxembourg would be available only in Euro and for such purposes all claims or debts would be converted into Euro.

(g)

A contractual provision conferring or imposing a remedy, an obligation or penalty consequent upon default or breach may not be fully enforceable if it were construed by a Luxembourg court as constituting an excessive pecuniary remedy.

(h)

Limitation of liability clauses will not be enforceable in case of willful default or gross negligence, or where the obligation that has been improperly performed was the central obligation (obligation essentielle) of the person protected by the limitation of liability clause.

(i)

Insofar as the laws of Luxembourg are concerned, provisions in the Transaction Documents relating to the transfer or assignment of rights and obligations may require the execution of further documentation in order to be fully effective, as well as to ensure the transfer of any security interests attaching to the rights or obligations to be transferred or assigned.

(j)

The enforcement of the Transaction Documents and the rights and obligations of the Parties will be subject to the general statutory principles of Luxembourg law; remedies such as specific performance, the issue of an injunction or the termination for breach of contract are discretionary. Notwithstanding any agreement purporting to confer the availability of any remedy, such remedy may not be available where damages instead of specific performance or specific performance instead of termination for breach of contract are considered by the court to be an adequate alternative remedy. The enforcement of rights and obligations in an action before the Luxembourg courts is subject to Luxembourg rules of civil and commercial procedure.

– 21 –

(k)

Provisions of the Transaction Documents providing for interest being payable in specified circumstances on due and payable interest may not be enforceable against the Luxembourg Obligors before a Luxembourg court even if they are valid under the respective governing law.

(l)

Claims may become barred under the statute of limitations or may be or become subject to defences of set-off or counterclaim.

(m)

We express no opinion on the validity or enforceability of waivers granted for future rights or claims.

(n)

Provisions according to which the Trustee is authorised to sue on behalf of the Luxembourg Obligors may not be enforceable.

(o)

Any power of attorney (including if granted by way of security) expressed to be irrevocable and granted by or on behalf of a Luxembourg Obligor may as a matter of Luxembourg law (which a court may also apply to powers granted by or on behalf of a Luxembourg Obligor under foreign law), be subject to revocation or termination by or on behalf of the grantor despite its being expressed to be irrevocable, which causes the withdrawal of all powers to act on behalf of the grantor of the power of attorney.

(p)

The right of a Party to recover legal counsel’s fees or other fees relating to the exercise or defence of its rights may be subject to limitations or may not be enforceable in accordance with its terms before a Luxembourg court or in Luxembourg court or enforcement proceedings.

(q)

An agreement may not create rights or obligations for third parties who are not a party to such agreement.

– 22 –

3.	TAXATION

The registration of the Transaction Documents is required if such Transaction Documents are either (i) attached as an annex to an act (annexés à un acte) that itself is subject to mandatory registration or (ii) deposited in the minutes of a notary (déposés au rang des minutes d’un notaire). In such cases, as well as in case of a voluntary registration, the Transaction Documents will be subject to registration duties payable by the party registering, or being ordered to register, the Transaction Documents. Depending on the nature of the Transaction Documents, such registration duties would be ad valorem (such as for instance a registration duty of 0.24% calculated on the amounts mentioned in those agreements) or fixed (such as for instance a registration duty of 12€ for a pledge).

4.	CORPORATE MATTERS

(a)

A company falling within the scope of Article 1200-1 of the Law on Commercial Companies, i.e. not respecting any provision of Luxembourg criminal law or which seriously contravenes any provision of the Luxembourg commercial code or any other Luxembourg law applicable to commercial companies, may be put into (i) judicial dissolution and liquidation or (ii) if such company has no assets and no employees, administrative dissolution without liquidation (dissolution administrative sans liquidation), each time upon the application of the public prosecutor.

(b)

The Constitutional Documents (as well as any other documents relating to the Luxembourg Obligors the publication of which is required by law) will only be enforceable against third parties after they have been published in the RESA, except where such third parties have knowledge thereof, whereas however third parties may rely thereon prior to such publication. For the 15 days following the publication, such documents would not be enforceable against third parties who prove that it was impossible for them to have knowledge thereof.

(c)

Any provision in any of the Transaction Documents which constitutes, or purports to constitute, a restriction on the choice of auditor of the Luxembourg Obligors by its shareholders or members may contravene the requirements of Directive 2006/43/EC and Regulation 537/2014 and may therefore become null and void.

– 23 –

(d)

An electronic signature complying with the requirements of article 1322-1 of the Luxembourg Civil Code (i.e. consisting in a set of data that is inseparably associated to the document and guarantees its integrity and that identifies the signatory and proves the signatory’s consent to the content of the document) or constituting a qualified electronic signature under the eIDAS Regulation has an equivalent effect to a handwritten signature and can be used for the execution of agreements. An electronic signature which does not comply with these requirements can also be used for the execution of agreements but will not have all the legal effects of a hand-written signature. In case of a dispute as to its effects, it will however not be dismissed in court merely on the grounds that it is an electronic signature. The document signed with such an electronic signature will be admissible in evidence by a Luxembourg court and the electronic signature will constitute a means to prove the consent of the person purported to have signed.

5.	GOVERNING LAW

(a)

The Luxembourg courts would not apply a chosen foreign law if:

(i)

the choice was not made bona fide, or

(ii)

the foreign law was not pleaded and proved, or

(iii)

if pleaded and proved, such foreign law would be contrary to the mandatory rules of Luxembourg law or manifestly incompatible with Luxembourg public policy or public order.

(b)

A Luxembourg court may refuse to apply the chosen governing law in the following cases:

(i)

where all other elements relevant to the situation at the time that the Transaction Documents were entered into are located in a country other than the country of the chosen governing law, to the extent the Parties’ choice of governing law affects the application of the provisions of the law of that other country which cannot be derogated from by agreement, which the court may then apply;

– 24 –

(ii)

where all other elements relevant to the situation at the time that the Transaction Documents were entered into are located in one or more Member States of the European Union and where the chosen law is not the one of a Member State, it may apply the provisions of EU law, where appropriate as implemented in Luxembourg, which cannot be derogated from by agreement;

(iii)

if the overriding mandatory provisions (lois de police) of the law of the country where the obligations arising out of the Transaction Documents have to be or have been performed, render the performance of the Transaction Documents unlawful in such country, in which case it may apply such overriding mandatory provisions taking into account (in deciding such application) the nature and object of such laws, as well as the consequences of its application or non-application;

(iv)

regarding the means of enforcement and measures to be taken by a creditor in case of a default in performance, it may apply the law of the country in which performance is taking place; or

(v)

if a Party is subject to insolvency proceedings, in which case it would apply the insolvency laws of the jurisdiction in which such insolvency proceedings have been regularly opened to the effects of such insolvency except to the extent any exceptions are established by Regulation 2015/848.

(c)

We express no opinion on any choice of law provisions in the Transaction Documents relating to contractual obligations that do not fall within the scope of the Rome I Regulation and to non-contractual obligations that do not fall within the scope of the Rome II Regulation.

(d)

The determination of the governing law and the recognition of trusts by Luxembourg courts (whether or not one or more elements of the trust relationship or trust assets are located in Luxembourg) will be made in accordance with the Convention dated 1 July 1985 on the law applicable to trusts and their recognition (ratified by a law dated 27 July 2003 on trusts and fiduciary contracts) (the “Hague Trusts Convention”), to the extent the relevant trust comes within the scope thereof. The law chosen by the parties will in principle be recognised as governing law, and the effects of the trust (in particular the segregation of trust assets) will be recognised in accordance with the Hague Trusts Convention, subject to the exceptions established therein, including the non-recognition of the chosen governing law if the situation has a closer link with another jurisdiction which does

– 25 –

not recognise trusts, the application of mandatory laws of Luxembourg and other jurisdictions in the matters referred to in Article 15 of the Hague Trusts Convention and the general exception of public order. In relation to the provision of any Transaction Document providing that the relevant Luxembourg Obligor shall hold on trust certain assets received, the non-recognition of the trust under Luxembourg law would cause the purported beneficiaries to only have an unsecured claim against the relevant Luxembourg Obligor, which claim will rank pari passu with the claims of other unsecured creditors of the relevant Luxembourg Obligor.

6.	JURISDICTION

(a)

A Luxembourg court may stay proceedings if concurrent proceedings are being brought elsewhere.

(b)

Designation of jurisdiction of courts in the interest of one Party or one group of Parties only will not prevent those Parties from bringing actions in any other court of competent jurisdiction or concurrently in more than one jurisdiction.

(c)

In a decision dated 26 September 2012, the French Cour de Cassation has denied effect to a jurisdiction clause (in a form similar to the ones in the Transaction Documents), which gives exclusive jurisdiction to one court but allows one of the parties to bring actions in other courts, as being contrary to the object and the finality of the prorogation of jurisdiction (prorogation de compétence) of Article 23 of Regulation 44/2001. While Luxembourg case-law has recognised the validity and enforceability of such jurisdiction clauses in the past (under the convention on jurisdiction and the enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters dated 27 September 1968, as amended) as well as recently under Regulation 44/2001 (Cour d’Appel, 7 December 2016, n° 42351 du rôle, Pas. 38, p. 195), some uncertainty has arisen (even outside France), although mitigated by the Luxembourg case law referred to above, as to the validity and effectiveness of such clauses under Regulation 44/2001 (as well as Regulation 1215/2012) as a result of the French decision in the absence of a clear position of the Court of Justice of the European Union or of the Luxembourg Supreme Court. If a Luxembourg court would adopt the same approach, the jurisdiction clause would be ineffective and normal rules of jurisdiction would apply.

– 26 –

If such an approach was followed by Luxembourg courts in relation to the interpretation of Regulation 1215/2012, it cannot be excluded that a similar approach would be adopted by them in relation to jurisdiction clauses outside the scope of application of Regulation 1215/2012 as well as in relation to arbitration clauses where such clauses are formulated in the same way.

(d)

The president of a competent court in Luxembourg, in any matter in which the plaintiff seeks provisional measures in summary proceedings (référé) or a permission to levy a prejudgment attachment (autorisation de saisie-arrêt conservatoire), may assume jurisdiction, on the basis of the general provisions of Luxembourg law, in connection with assets located in Luxembourg notwithstanding the submission to the jurisdiction of the courts of other countries, and such action would be governed by Luxembourg law.

(e)

Jurisdiction clauses would not be enforceable in or binding on a Luxembourg court in relation to actions brought for non-contractual claims

7.	OTHER MATTERS

(a)

A contractual provision allowing the service of process against the Luxembourg Obligors or any other third party appointed to such effect could be overridden by Luxembourg statutory provisions allowing the valid service of process against the Luxembourg Obligors in accordance with applicable laws at their registered office. A provision allowing any other party to appoint a replacement process agent instead of the Luxembourg Obligors would most likely not be enforceable in or the effects thereof recognised by a Luxembourg court.

(b)

We express no opinion on any notification obligation to the Banque Centrale du Luxembourg for statistical purposes which may arise from the issuance of and any payments under the Notes or under the Transaction Documents or in relation to any other obligations of the Company towards the Banque Centrale du Luxembourg under applicable laws and regulations.

– 27 –

(c)

The admissibility as evidence of the Transaction Documents before a Luxembourg court or public authority to which the Transaction Documents are produced will require that the Transaction Documents be accompanied by a complete or partial translation into French or German and a Luxembourg court may always require that the parties produce the original of a Transaction Document on the basis of which a claim is made.

(d)

A discretion established in favour of one Party by any of the Transaction Documents will have to be exercised in a reasonable manner.

(e)

With respect to provisions under which determination of circumstances or certification by any Party is stated or implied to be conclusive and binding upon each of the Luxembourg Obligors, a Luxembourg court would be authorised to examine whether such determination occurred in good faith and may nevertheless request a Party to provide further evidence.

(f)

All rights and obligations arising under the Transaction Documents involving (i) the government of any country which is currently the subject of United Nations, the European Union or any other applicable sanctions (an “Affected Country”), (ii) any person or body resident in, incorporated in or constituted under the laws of any Affected Country, (iii) any person or body controlled by any of the foregoing, (iv) any person or body exercising public functions in any Affected Country or (v) any person or body being itself subject of United Nations, the European Union or any other applicable sanctions may be subject to restrictions pursuant to such sanctions as implemented in Luxembourg law or applicable or applied in Luxembourg.

(g)

A severability clause may be ineffective if a Luxembourg court considers that the illegal, invalid or unenforceable clause was a substantive or material clause.
