AnaCap Financial Europe S.A. SICAV-RAIF
325,000,000 Senior Secured Floating Rate Notes due 2024
AnaCap Financial Europe S.A. SICAV-RAIF, a public limited liability company (société anonyme) incorporated and existing under the laws of Luxembourg as a reserved
alternative investment fund (fonds d'investissement alternatif réservé) in the form of an investment company with variable capital (société d'investissement à capital variable),
with registered office at E Building, Parc d'Activités Syrdall, 6, Rue Gabriel Lippmann, L-5365 Munsbach, Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and is registered with
the Luxembourg Register of Trade and Companies under number B216080 (the "Company"), is offering 325.0 million aggregate principal amount of its Senior Secured
Floating Rate Notes due 2024 (the "Notes").
The Company will pay interest on the Notes, in cash, quarterly in arrears on each February 1, May 1, August 1 and November 1, commencing November 1, 2017. The Notes
will bear interest at a rate per annum, reset quarterly, equal to the sum of (i) three-month Euro Interbank Offered Rate ("EURIBOR") (subject to a 0% floor) plus (ii) 5.00%.
The Notes will mature on August 1, 2024. At any time on or after August 1, 2019, the Company may redeem all or a portion of the Notes at the redemption prices set forth in
this offering memorandum (the "Offering Memorandum"). At any time prior to August 1, 2019, the Company may, at its option, redeem all or a portion of the Notes at a
redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional amounts, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date, plus
the applicable "make-whole" premium as described in this Offering Memorandum. At any time prior to August 1, 2019, the Company may, at its option, also redeem up to
40% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including the principal amount of any Additional Notes) with the net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings at a
redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus the interest rate per annum on the Notes applicable on the date on which a notice of redemption is given, plus
accrued and unpaid interest and additional amounts, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date, if at least 60% of the originally issued aggregate principal amount of the
Notes (including the principal amount of any Additional Notes) remains outstanding.
In the event of certain developments affecting taxation, the Company may redeem all, but not less than all, of the Notes. Upon the occurrence of certain events defined as
constituting a change of control, the Company may be required to make an offer to purchase all the Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount
thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional amounts, if any. See "Description of the Notes" for further information.
The Notes will be senior obligations of the Company and will rank equal in right of payment to all existing and future indebtedness of the Company that is not expressly
subordinated in right of payment to the Notes, including indebtedness incurred under the Revolving Credit Facility (as defined herein) and certain hedging obligations (other
than in the case of distressed disposals and the proceeds from enforcement of security), will rank senior in right of payment to all existing and future obligations of the
Company that are expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes, will be effectively senior in right of payment to existing and future unsecured obligations of the
Company to the extent of the value of the Collateral that is available to satisfy the obligations under the Notes, and will be structurally subordinated to all obligations of the
Company's subsidiaries that are not Guarantors (as defined hereafter).
Subject to certain limitations and within 60 days from the Issue Date, the Notes will be guaranteed on a senior secured basis by ACOF II Portugal Limited, AFE Spain Limited,
Alpha Credit Holdings S.à r.l., Alpha Credit Solutions 4 S.à r.l., Prime Credit 3 S.à r.l., Prime Credit 6 S.à r.l. and Prime Credit 7 S.à r.l. (together, the "Guarantors"). The
guarantee by each of the Guarantors (each a "Guarantee" and together the "Guarantees") will be a general senior obligation of the relevant Guarantor, will, together with their
respective obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility and certain hedging obligations (other than in the case of distressed disposals and the proceeds from enforcement
of security), be secured by first-priority liens over the assets securing the Notes, will rank equal in right of payment to all existing and future indebtedness of such Guarantor
that is not expressly subordinated in right of payment to its Guarantee, including its obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility and certain hedging obligations, will rank
senior in right of payment to all existing and future indebtedness of such Guarantor that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to its Guarantee, will be effectively
senior in right of payment to existing and future unsecured obligations of such Guarantor to the extent and value of the Collateral that is available to satisfy the obligations
under such Guarantor's Guarantee, and will be structurally subordinated to all obligations of such Guarantor's subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Notes.
Subject to certain limitations, the Notes will be secured on the Issue Date by a first-ranking lien over the outstanding capital stock of the Company held by AnaCap Financial
Europe Holdings SCSp SICAV-RAIF and, within 60 days from the Issue Date, the Notes and the Guarantees will be secured by first ranking liens over the other Collateral
(as defined herein). The Collateral will also secure the Company's obligations under its Revolving Credit Facility and certain hedging obligations. The Notes, the Guarantees
and the Collateral will be subject to restrictions on enforcement and other intercreditor arrangements. See "Description of Certain Financing Arrangements--Intercreditor
Agreement" and "Limitations on Validity and Enforceability of the Guarantees and Security Interests" for further information. Under the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement
(as defined herein), to be entered into in connection with the offering of the Notes, in the event of a distressed disposal of the Collateral or an enforcement of the security
interests over the Collateral, the holders of the Notes will receive proceeds from such Collateral only after the obligations under or in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility
and certain hedging obligations have been repaid in full. The security interests and Guarantees will be subject to significant contractual and legal limitations. The security
interests in the Collateral and the Guarantees may be released under certain circumstances.
There is currently no public market for the Notes. Application has been made to list the Notes on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and to admit the Notes
to trading on the Euro MTF market of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange. The Euro MTF market is not a regulated market for purposes of the Markets in Financial Instruments
Directive (Directive 2004/39/EC). The Euro MTF market falls within the scope of Regulation (EC) 596/2014 on market abuse and the related Directive 2014/57/EU on
criminal sanctions for market abuse.
Investing in the Notes involves a high degree of risk. See "Risk Factors" beginning on page 22.

Issue price for the Notes: 99.50%, plus accrued interest, if any, from the Issue Date

The Notes and the Guarantees have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), or the
securities laws of any other jurisdiction. The Company has not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the
"Investment Company Act"), in reliance on the exception provided by Section 3(c)(7) thereof. Accordingly, the Notes and the Guarantees are being offered and sold
inside the United States only to qualified institutional buyers ("QIBs") in accordance with Rule 144A under the U.S. Securities Act ("Rule 144A") that are also
qualified purchasers ("Qualified Purchasers") (as defined in Section 2(a)(51)(A) of the Investment Company Act) and outside the United States to persons who are
neither U.S. Persons (as defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act ("Regulation S")) nor U.S. residents (as defined for the purposes of the Investment
Company Act) in offshore transactions in accordance with Regulation S. Prospective purchasers that are QIBs and Qualified Purchasers are hereby notified that
the Initial Purchasers may be relying on the exemption from the provisions of Section 5 of the U.S. Securities Act provided by Rule 144A. See "Important
Information", "Plan of Distribution" and "Transfer Restrictions" for additional information about eligible offerees and transfer restrictions. The Company is a
"covered fund" as defined in Section 13 of the U.S. Bank Holding Company Act (the "Volcker Rule"). The Notes may constitute an "ownership interest" within the
meaning of the Volcker Rule. See "Risk Factors--Risks Relating to the Company's Indebtedness, Including the Notes and the Guarantees--The Volcker Rule may
negatively affect the liquidity and the value of the Notes" and "Transfer Restrictions".
The Notes will be in registered form in minimum denominations of 200,000 and integral multiples of 1,000 in excess thereof and will be represented by one or more global
notes in book-entry form. The Company expects that the Notes will be deposited and registered in the name of a nominee for a common depositary for Euroclear Bank SA/NV
("Euroclear") and Clearstream Banking, S.A. ("Clearstream") on or about July 21, 2017 (the "Issue Date").

provided that no such offer of Notes shall result in a requirement for the publication by the Company or the Initial
Purchasers of the prospectus in accordance with Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive or a supplement to a prospectus
pursuant to Article 16 of the Prospectus Directive.
For the purposes of this provision, the expression an "offer of Notes to the public" in relation to any Notes in any
Relevant Member State means the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of
the offer and the Notes to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe for the Notes, as the
same may be varied in the Relevant Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in that Member
State, the expression "Prospectus Directive" means Directive 2003/71/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council
of November 4, 2003 on the prospectus to be published when securities are offered to the public or admitted to trading and
amending Directive 2001/34/EC (and amendments thereto, including the 2010 PD Amending Directive), and includes any
relevant implementing measure in the Relevant Member State and the expression "2010 PD Amending Directive" means
Directive 2010/73/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of November 24, 2010 amending Directives
2003/71/EC on the prospectus to be published when securities are offered to the public or admitted to trading and

NOTICE TO INVESTORS IN THE UNITED STATES

securities regulatory authority of any state or other jurisdiction in the United States and may not be offered or sold in the
United States, except to persons who are both QIBs and Qualified Purchasers. The Notes may be offered and sold outside

non-U.S. securities authority has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined that this Offering Memorandum
is accurate or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
Certain Volcker Rule Considerations
The Company is relying on an analysis that it does not come within the definition of "investment company" under
the U.S. Investment Company Act because of the exception provided under Section 3(c)(7) thereunder. Consequently, the
Company is considered to be a "covered fund" for purposes of Section 13 of the Bank Holding Company Act (the "Volcker
Rule"). See "Risk Factors--Risks Relating to the Company's Indebtedness, Including the Notes and the Guarantees--The
Volcker Rule may negatively affect the liquidity and the value of the Notes" and "Transfer Restrictions".
THIS OFFERING MEMORANDUM CONTAINS IMPORTANT INFORMATION WHICH YOU SHOULD
READ BEFORE YOU MAKE ANY DECISION WITH RESPECT TO AN INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES.

"intends", "may", "ongoing", "plans", "potential", "predict", "project", "seek", "should", "target", "will", or "would" or,
