Interest will accrue on the Capital Securities from (and including) 5 April 2018 (the Issue Date) to (but excluding) 5 October 2023 (the
First Reset Date) at a rate of 3.875 per cent. per annum, and thereafter at the relevant Reset Interest Rate (as defined in the terms and
conditions of the Capital Securities (the Conditions) under Condition 4(d)). Interest on the Capital Securities will (subject to the option of
the Issuer to defer payments, as provided below) be payable annually in arrear on 5 October in each year from (and including) 5 October
2018. The first payment of interest will be made on 5 October 2018 in respect of the period from (and including) the Issue Date to (but
excluding) 5 October 2018 (short first coupon).
Payments of interest on the Capital Securities may, at the option of the Issuer, be deferred, as set out in Condition 5(a). Deferred interest,
which shall itself bear interest, may be paid at any time at the option of the Issuer (upon notice to the holders of the Capi tal Securities), and
must be paid in the circumstances provided in Condition 5(b).
If the Issuer does not elect to redeem the Capital Securities in accordance with Condition 6(e) following the occurrence of the first Ratings
Adverse Change of Control (as defined in the Conditions), the then prevailing interest rate per annum (and each subsequent interest rate per
annum otherwise determined in accordance with the Conditions) for such Capital Securities shall be increased by an additional five
percentage points per annum with efect from (and including) the day immediately following the Change of Control Step-Up Date, as set out
in Condition 4(i).
Unless earlier redeemed or repurchased and cancelled, the Issuer shall redeem the Capital Securities on 5 October 2078. The Issuer will have
the right to redeem the Capital Securities in whole, but not in part, on (a) any of the 90 days up to and including the First Reset Date or (b)
any Interest Payment Date thereafter. The Issuer may also redeem the Capital Securities upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, a Tax
Deductibility Event, a Substantial Repurchase Event, a Capital Event or a Withholding Tax Event, and may in certain circumstances vary
the terms of, or substitute, the Capital Securities, all as set out in the Conditions.
The Capital Securities (as defined under "Conditions of the Capital Securities") have not been and will not be registered under the
United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act) or with any securities regulatory authority of any state or other
jurisdiction of the United States. The Capital Securities are being offered and sold outside the United States in accordance with
Regulation S under the Securities Act (Regulation S), and may not be offered and sold or delivered within the United States or to,
for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation S), except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a trans action
not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
This prospectus (Prospectus) has been approved by the Central Bank of Ireland, as competent authority under Directive 2003/71/EC (the
Prospectus Directive) as amended (including by Directive 2010/73/EU). The Central Bank of Ireland only approves this Prospectus as
meeting the requirements imposed under Irish and European Union (EU) law pursuant to the Prospectus Directive. Application has been
made to the Irish Stock Exchange plc for the Capital Securities to be admitted to the Oficial List and trading on its regulated market (the
Main Securities Market). Such approval relates only to the Capital Securities that are to be admitted to trading on a regulated market for
the purposes of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, MiFID II) and/or that are to be offered to the public in any member state of the
European Economic Area (the EEA). References in this Prospectus to the Capital Securities being listed (and all related references) shall
mean that the Capital Securities have been admitted to the Oficial List and have been admitted to trading on the Main Securities Market.
The Main Securities Market is a regulated market for the purposes of MiFID II.
MIFID II product governance / Professional investors and eligible counterparties only target market ­ Solely for the purposes of each
manufacturer's product approval process, the target market assessment in respect of the Capital Securities has led to the conclusion that: (i)
the target market for the Capital Securities is eligible counterparties and professional clients only, each as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) all
channels for distribution of the Capital Securities to eligible counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. Any person
subsequently offering, selling or recommending the Capital Securities (a distributor) should take into consideration the manufacturers'
target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to MiFID II is responsible for undertaking its own target market ass essment in
respect of the Capital Securities (by either adopting or refining the manufacturer`s target market assessment) and determining appropriate
distribution channels.
PRIIPs Regulation / PROHIBITION OF SALES TO EEA RETAIL INVESTORS ­ The Capital Securities are not intended to be
offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the EEA.
For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of
MiFID II; or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive 2002/92/EC (as amended, the Insurance Mediation Directive), where that
customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II. Consequently no key information
document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the PRIIPs Regulation) for offering or selling the Capital Securities or
otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Capital Securities or
otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.
The Issuer has been rated BBB by Standard & Poor's Credit Market Services Europe Limited (S&P). The Capital Securities have been rated
BB+ by S&P. A rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision, suspension or withdrawal at
any time by the assigning rating organisation. S&P is established in the EU and is registered under Regulation (EC) No. 10 60/2009 (as




amended) (the CRA Regulation). As such, S&P is included in the list of credit rating agencies published by the European Securities and
Markets Authority on its website in accordance with the CRA Regulation.
Amounts payable on the Capital Securities in respect of each Reset Period will be calculated by reference to the mid-swap rate for euro swap
transactions with a maturity of five years which appears on the Reuters screen ICESWAP2 (ICE Swap Rate). As at the date of this
Prospectus, the administrator of ICE Swap Rate (ICE Benchmark Administration Limited (IBA)) is not included in ESMA's register of
administrators under Article 36 of the Regulation (EU) No. 2016/1011 (the Benchmarks Regulation). As far as the Issuer is aware, the
transitional provisions in Article 51 of the Benchmarks Regulation apply, such that IBA is not currently required to obtain
authorisation/registration.
The Capital Securities will initially be represented by a temporary global capital security (the Temporary Global Capital Security),
without interest coupons, which will be deposited on or about 5 April 2018 (the Closing Date) with a common depositary for Euroclear
Bank SA/NV (Euroclear) and Clearstream Banking S.A. (Clearstream, Luxembourg). Interests in the Temporary Global Capital Security
will be exchangeable for interests in a permanent global capital security (the Permanent Global Capital Security and, together with the
Temporary Global Capital Security, the Global Capital Securities), without interest coupons, on or after 15 May 2018 (the Exchange
Date), upon certification as to non-U.S. beneficial ownership. Interests in the Permanent Global Capital Security will be exchangeable for
definitive Capital Securities only in certain limited circumstances. See " Summary of Provisions relating to the Capital Securities while
represented by the Global Capital Securities".
An investment in Capital Securities involves certain risks. Prospective investors should have regard to the fa ctors described under
the heading "Risk Factors" on page 1.

RISK FACTORS
Before making an investment decision, prospective investors should carefully review the specific risk
factors described below, in addition to the other information contained in this Prospectus. The Issuer
believes that the following factors may affect the Issuer's ability to fulfil its obligations under the
Capital Securities. Most of these factors are contingencies which may or may not occur and the Issuer
is not in a position to express a view on the likelihood of any such contingency occurring. Akelius
business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially affected by each of these
risks presented. Also other risks and uncertainties not described herein could affect the Issuer's ability
to fulfil its obligations under the Capital Securities. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently
known to the Issuer, or that the Issuer currently believes are immaterial, could impair the ability of the
Issuer to fulfil its obligations under the Capital Securities. Certain other matters regarding the
operations of the Issuer that should be considered before making an investment in the Capital
Securities are set out, in the section "Information about the Issuer", amongst other places. The order
of presentation of the risk factors in this Prospectus is not intended to be an indication of the
probability of their occurrence or of their potential effect on the Issuer's ability to fulfil its obligations
under the Capital Securities.
The capitalised words and expressions in this section shal have the meanings defined in "Terms and
Conditions of the Capital Securities".
Factors that may affect the Issuer's ability to fulfil its obligations under the Capital Securities
Risks factors relating to the Issuer and the Group
Slow or negative economic growth may have an adverse effect on the real estate market and the
Group's rental revenue
The real estate business is to a large extent affected by macroeconomic factors such as general
economic trends, regional economic development, employment rate development, the production rate
of new residential units and premises, changes in infrastructure, population growth, structure of the
population, inflation and interest rates. In addition, political uncertainty (including, for example, the
United Kingdom's vote to leave the European Union in June 2016 and its subsequent invocation of
Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty in March 2017 to begin the withdrawal process) may have a negative
impact on economic conditions and consumer confidence in the countries where the Group operates.
The deterioration of economic conditions in either the countries where the Group operates or global y
could result in an increase in unemployment or a decline in real income. This may, in turn, have an
adverse effect on supply and demand in the real estate market, vacancy and rental rates and the
financial condition of the Group's tenants and other counterparties.
Expectations regarding inflation and/or fluctuations in inflation rates may affect interest rates,
including the interest rates that may be payable by the Group on a finance or credit agreement that it
enters into. The cost of interest payments on debts owed to credit institutions is one of the Group's
main expenses and so any changes in interest rates could have a significant effect on the Group's
financial results and cash flow. Increases in the rate of inflation could also increase the operating and
administrative expenses of the Group. Furthermore, changes in interest rates and the rate of inflation
may also affect the yield requirements and, therefore, the market or fair value of the Group's
properties.
If one or several of these factors would develop negatively, it could have a material adverse impact on
the Group's operations, earnings and financial position.
1




A decreased demand for, or an increased supply of, or a contraction of the market for, properties in
the countries in which the Group operates, could adversely affect the business and financial
condition of the Group
Supply and demand for real estate, and accordingly the yield on real estate investments differ between
different geographical markets and may also develop differently within a specific geographical
market. The Group has a diversified property portfolio with properties in a variety of countries and
cities. If there are changes in supply and demand or a general contraction of the property market in any
of those countries or cities, this may negatively influence the occupancy rates of the Group's
properties, the rental rates, the level of demand and ultimately the value of such properties. This could,
in turn, have a material adverse impact on the Group's earnings and financial position.
The Group may not be able to execute disposals of real estate properties and residential units at
acceptable prices, on acceptable terms or at all
Part of the Group's business model consists of sel ing fully developed real estate properties and
residential units. For this to be successful, it relies on high demand for such properties and on the
ability of the purchasers to successfully complete those transactions.
The desire to purchase a real estate property or residential unit is dependent, among other things, on
whether the characteristics of the specific property or residential unit correspond to the current market
demand, the general activity on the real estate market where the property or unit is based, the general
price trend on the real estate market and demographic factors. The desire to purchase residential units
is further affected by, among other things, the access to and cost for alternative properties and/or
housing arrangements.
The value and price of, and the ability of purchasers to pay for, real estate properties and residential
units is influenced by several factors, such as general economic conditions, interest rates, inflation
expectations, investor yield requirements, the levels of taxes and charges payable on the acquisition.
The ability of counterparties to pay for residential units is further affected by their ability to make
interest deductions, to receive loan financing, changes in interest rates for residential loans and rules
applied by law or credit institutions regarding maximum borrowings and amortisations.
A decrease in purchasers' desire or ability to pay for the real estate properties and residential units or
the inability of the Group to sel at acceptable prices could have a material adverse impact on the
Group's operations, earnings and financial position.
There can be no assurance that the Group will be successful in implementing its strategy or
achieving its financial targets or investment objectives
No assurance can be given that the implementation of the Group's strategy and/or the achievement of
its financial targets or investment objectives wil be successful under current or future market
conditions. The Group's approach may be modified and altered from time to time. It is therefore
possible that the approach adopted to implement its strategy and achieve its financial targets and
investment objectives in the future may be different from that presently expected to be used and
disclosed in this Prospectus.
Moreover, the availability of potential investments that meet the Group's acquisition criteria wil
depend on the state of the economy and financial markets in the countries in which the Group operates
or is interested in entering into. The Group can offer no assurance that it wil be able to identify and
make investments that are consistent with its acquisition criteria or rate of return targets.
