AerCap Announces Amendment to Revolving Debt Facility

AMSTERDAM, June 10, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — AerCap Holdings N.V. (“AerCap”, NYSE: AER) today announced that it has completed an amendment to its revolving debt facility.

The $775 million non-recourse facility, arranged by UBS Securities LLC, was originally put in place during April 2006 and has now been amended to allow for an additional two year revolving period with a three year term-out period, extending the transaction to June 2016. The facility continues to allow for the acquisition of a range of aircraft types, and provides AerCap committed financing and significant flexibility to purchase aircraft.

In addition to UBS, this transaction includes several new and significant lenders for AerCap – Credit Suisse AG, Citibank N.A., Nomura Global Financial Products Inc. and Scotiabank Capital.

The total amount of financing transactions completed in 2011 by AerCap is now $1 billion. Two long term debt facilities for A330 aircraft financings were closed earlier this year with Landesbank Hessen-Thueringen Girozentrale of Germany and DBS Bank Ltd. of Singapore.
