Acquisition of Asset
13 April 2016
As anticipated in the Company's Prospectus dated 3 December 2015
(the "Prospectus") Amedeo Air Four Plus Limited (the "Company"),

manufacturer's serial number 208 (the "Aircraft") at a net cost to
the Company of US$275 million. In accordance with the Investment
Process outlined in the Prospectus, the Aircraft is the Sixth Asset

Following acquisition of the Aircraft, AA4PZ entered into
Aircraft Operating Lease arrangements with Emirates airline
("Emirates") pursuant to which the Aircraft has been leased to
Emirates for a term of 12 years, with fixed lease rentals for the
duration. Following this purchase, the Company therefore now owns
six A380s which have all been leased to Emirates.
