PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
(To Prospectus Dated June 22, 2015)
AerCap Ireland Capital Limited
AerCap Global Aviation Trust
$1,000,000,000 3.950% Senior Notes due 2022
Guaranteed by AerCap Holdings N.V.
AerCap Ireland Capital Limited, a private limited company incorporated under the laws of Ireland (the "Irish Issuer"), and AerCap Global Aviation Trust, a Delaware statutory trust (the
"U.S. Issuer" and, together with the Irish Issuer, the "Issuers"), are offering $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 3.950% Senior Notes due 2022 (the "Notes"). The Notes are being
issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of May 14, 2014 (the "Indenture"), among the Issuers, the guarantors (as defined below) and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the
"Trustee").
The Issuers will pay interest on the Notes semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, commencing on August 1, 2016.
The Issuers may redeem some or all of the Notes at their option at any time and from time to time by paying a specified "make-whole" premium described under "Description of Notes
--Optional redemption. " If we experience a change in control followed by a ratings decline, the Issuers will be required to make an offer to purchase all of the Notes at the price described
under "Description of Notes--Repurchase at the Option of Holders--Change in Control Triggering Event. " The Issuers may redeem the Notes at their option, at any time, in whole but not in
part, in the event of certain developments affecting taxation described under "Description of Notes--Redemption for Changes in Withholding Tax."
The Notes will be joint and several obligations of the Issuers and will be the Issuers' senior unsecured obligations. The Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed (the
"guarantees") on a senior unsecured basis by AerCap Holdings N.V. (the "Parent Guarantor," and such guarantee, the "Parent Guarantee") and certain other subsidiaries of the Parent Guarantor
(together with the Parent Guarantor, the "guarantors") as described under "Description of Notes--Guarantees. " The Notes and the guarantees will rank pari passu in right of payment with all
senior debt of the Issuers and the guarantors and will rank senior in right of payment to all of the Issuers' and the guarantors' subordinated debt. The Notes will be effectively subordinated to
all of the Issuers' and each guarantor's existing and future secured debt to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt. The Notes will be structurally subordinated to all of the
existing and future debt and other liabilities of the Parent Guarantor's subsidiaries (other than the Issuers) that do not guarantee the Notes. See "Description of Notes--Ranking."
Investing in the Notes involves risk. You should carefully review the risks and uncertainties described under the heading "Risk Factors"
beginning on page S-6 of this prospectus supplement before you make an investment in the Notes.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
This summary highlights the information contained elsewhere in or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement. Because this is only a
summary, it does not contain all of the information that may be important to you. You should read this entire prospectus supplement carefully together
with the information incorporated by reference herein, including "Risk Factors" and the financial statements, and notes related thereto, incorporated by
reference in this prospectus supplement, before making an investment decision.
Our Business
We are the world's largest independent aircraft leasing company. We focus on acquiring in-demand aircraft at attractive prices, funding them
efficiently, hedging interest rate risk conservatively and using our platform to deploy these assets with the objective of delivering superior risk adjusted
returns. We believe that by applying our expertise, we will be able to identify and execute on a broad range of market opportunities that we expect will
http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/714311/000104746916013309/a2228728z424b5.htm[5/19/2016 4:49:49 PM]

generate attractive returns for our shareholders. We are an independent aircraft lessor, and, as such, we are not affiliated with any airframe or engine
manufacturer. This independence provides us with purchasing flexibility to acquire aircraft or engine models regardless of the manufacturer.
We operate our business on a global basis, leasing aircraft to customers in every major geographical region. As of December 31, 2015, we owned
1,109 aircraft, excluding four aircraft that were owned by AeroTurbine, managed 141 aircraft, including those owned and on order by AerDragon, had
447 new aircraft on order, including 209 Airbus A320neo family aircraft, 109 Boeing 737MAX aircraft, 51 Boeing 787 aircraft, 50 Embraer E-Jets E2
aircraft, 27 Airbus A350 aircraft and one Boeing 737NG aircraft. The average age of our 1,109 owned aircraft fleet, weighted by net book value, was
7.7 years as of December 31, 2015.
We lease most of our aircraft to airlines under operating leases. Under an operating lease, the lessee is responsible for the maintenance and
servicing of the equipment during the lease term and the lessor receives the benefit, and assumes the risk, of the residual value of the equipment at the
end of the lease. As of December 31, 2015, our owned and managed aircraft were leased to over 200 commercial airline and cargo operator customers
in approximately 80 countries.
We have the infrastructure, expertise and resources to execute a large number of diverse aircraft transactions in a variety of market conditions.
During the year ended December 31, 2015, we executed 405 aircraft transactions. Our teams of dedicated marketing and asset trading professionals
have been successful in leasing and managing our aircraft portfolio. During the year ended December 31, 2015, our weighted average owned aircraft
utilization rate was 99.5%, calculated based on the average number of months the aircraft are on lease during the year. The utilization rate is weighted
proportionately to the net book value of the aircraft as of December 31, 2015.

After giving effect to this offering, as of March 31, 2016, the principal
amount of our outstanding indebtedness, which excludes fair value
adjustments of $0.8 billion and debt issuance costs and debt discounts of
$0.2 billion, would have been approximately $30.2 billion, of which
approximately $12.7 billion was secured, and we had $6.2 billion of undrawn

certain conditions, including compliance with certain financial covenants.

In addition, as of March 31, 2016, our subsidiaries that are not guarantors of

guarantor are obligated by law to deduct or withhold taxes or governmental
charges in respect of the Notes or the guarantees, subject to certain
exceptions, the Issuers or the relevant guarantor, as applicable, will pay to the
holders of the Notes additional amounts so that the net amount received by
the holders after any deduction or withholding will not be less than the
amount the holders would have received if those taxes or governmental
charges had not been withheld or deducted. See "Description of Notes--
Additional Amounts."

RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus,
including in the section captioned "Risk Factors" in Item 3 of our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2015 and the matters
addressed under "Forward Looking Statements" in the accompanying prospectus, you should carefully consider the following risks before making any
investment decisions with respect to the Notes.
Our substantial debt could adversely affect our cash flow and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations under our existing indebtedness and the
Notes.
After giving effect to this offering, as of March 31, 2016, the principal amount of our outstanding indebtedness, which excludes fair value
adjustments of $0.8 billion and debt issuance costs and debt discounts of $0.2 billion, would have been approximately $30.2 billion (approximately 68%
of our total assets as of that date), and for the three months ended March 31, 2016 our interest expense would have been $0.3 billion. Due to the capital
intensive nature of our business, we expect that we will incur additional indebtedness in the future and continue to maintain substantial levels of
indebtedness. After giving effect to this offering, our fixed rate debt of $21.4 billion would have represented 71% of our principal amount of
outstanding indebtedness as of March 31, 2016. Our level of indebtedness:
·
requires a substantial portion of our cash flows from operations to be dedicated to interest and principal payments and therefore not
available to fund our operations, working capital, capital expenditures, expansion, acquisitions or general corporate or other purposes;
·
may make it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to the Notes;
·
restricts the ability of some of our subsidiaries and joint ventures to make distributions to us;
·
may impair our ability to obtain additional financing on favorable terms or at all in the future;

·
may limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and industry; and
·
may make us more vulnerable to downturns in our business, our industry or the economy in general.
Despite our substantial debt, we may still be able to incur significantly more debt, including secured debt, which would increase the risks described
herein.
Despite our current indebtedness levels, we expect to incur additional debt in the future to finance our operations, including purchasing aircraft and
meeting our contractual obligations. The agreements relating to our debt, including our indentures, term loan facilities, ECA guaranteed financings,
revolving credit facilities, securitizations, subordinated joint venture agreements and other financings, limit but do not prohibit our ability to incur
additional debt. If we increase our total indebtedness, our debt service obligations will increase. We will become more exposed to the risks arising from
our substantial level of indebtedness as described above as we become more leveraged. As of March 31, 2016, we had approximately $6.2 billion of
undrawn lines of credit available under our credit and term loan facilities, subject to certain conditions, including compliance with certain financial
covenants. We regularly consider market conditions and our ability to incur indebtedness to either refinance existing indebtedness or for working
capital. If additional debt is added to our current debt levels, the related risks we face could increase.

The Irish Issuer, the Parent Guarantor and the other guarantors of the Notes are primarily holding companies with very limited operations and
may not have access to sufficient cash to make payments on the Notes.
The Irish Issuer, the Parent Guarantor and the other guarantors of the Notes are primarily holding companies with very limited operations. Their
only significant assets are the equity interests of their directly held subsidiaries. As a result, the Irish Issuer, the Parent Guarantor and the other
guarantors of the Notes are dependent primarily upon dividends and other payments from their subsidiaries to generate the funds necessary to meet their
outstanding debt service and other obligations, and such dividends may be restricted by law or the instruments governing their subsidiaries'
indebtedness. Their subsidiaries may not generate sufficient cash from operations to enable the Issuers or the guarantors to make principal and interest
payments on their indebtedness, including the Notes. In addition, their subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities and any payments of dividends,
distributions, loans or advances to the Issuers or the guarantors by their subsidiaries could be subject to legal and contractual restrictions on dividends. In
addition, payments to the Issuers or the guarantors by their subsidiaries will be contingent upon their subsidiaries' earnings. Additionally, we may be
limited in our ability to cause any existing or future joint ventures to distribute their earnings to us. We cannot assure you that agreements governing
the current and future indebtedness of our subsidiaries will permit those subsidiaries to provide the Issuers or the guarantors with sufficient cash to fund
payments of principal, premiums, if any, and interest on the Notes when due. In the event that the Issuers or the guarantors do not receive distributions
or other payments from their subsidiaries, they may be unable to make required payments on the Notes.
The Notes and the guarantees are effectively subordinated to our and our guarantors' existing and future secured indebtedness.
The Notes and the guarantees are unsecured obligations of the Issuers and each guarantor, respectively, and are effectively subordinated to all of the
Issuers' and each guarantor's existing and future secured indebtedness and other secured obligations to the extent of the value of the assets securing such
indebtedness and other obligations. As a result, in the event of any liquidation, insolvency, dissolution, reorganization or similar proceeding relating to
us or our property, holders of any secured indebtedness of ours will have claims that are prior to the claims of any noteholder with respect to the assets
securing such secured indebtedness. After giving effect to this offering, as of March 31, 2016, the Issuers and the guarantors would have had
approximately $20.0 billion of indebtedness outstanding (excluding fair value adjustments, debt issuance costs and debt discounts) of which
approximately $2.6 billion would have been secured.
If we defaulted on our obligations under any of our secured debt, our secured lenders would be entitled to foreclose on our assets securing that
indebtedness and liquidate those assets. If any secured indebtedness were to be accelerated, we cannot assure you that our assets would be sufficient to
repay in full that indebtedness and our other indebtedness, including amounts due on the Notes. In addition, upon any distribution of assets pursuant to
any liquidation, insolvency, dissolution, reorganization or similar proceeding, the holders of our secured indebtedness will be entitled to receive
payment in full from the proceeds of the collateral securing such secured indebtedness before the holders of the Notes will be entitled to receive any
payment with respect thereto. As a result, the holders of the Notes may recover disproportionately less than the holders of secured indebtedness, and it is
possible that there will be no assets from which claims of holders of the Notes can be satisfied or, if any assets remain, that the remaining assets will be
insufficient to satisfy those claims in full.
The Indenture contains a covenant that provides, subject to certain exceptions, that we must secure the Notes equally and ratably with certain
secured indebtedness that we or our restricted subsidiaries issue, assume or guarantee in the event that the amount of such secured indebtedness exceeds
12.5% of our consolidated net tangible assets, as defined in the Indenture, as shown on or derived from our most
