NZX waivers

NZX has granted Auckland Airport a waiver from NZX Listing Rule 11.1.1, to

enable Auckland Airport to decline to accept or register a transfer of Bonds if

such transfer would result in the transferor holding or continuing to hold

Bonds with a principal amount of less than the applicable minimum principal

amount (or minimum multiple thereof). The effect of the waiver from NZX

Listing Rule 11.1.1 is that the minimum holding amount in respect of the

Bonds will be Bonds with an aggregate principal amount of not less than

NZ$10,000 and multiples of $1,000 over the minimum holding amount.

Auckland Airport may refuse a transfer if the transfer is not in multiples of

$1,000.

NZX has also granted Auckland Airport a waiver from NZX Listing Rule 5.2.3

to enable Auckland Airport to apply for quotation on the NZX Debt Market

even though the Bonds may not initially be held by at least 100 members of

the public holding at least 25% of the Bonds issued. The waiver has been

granted for a period of six-months from the quotation date of the Bonds. The

effect of the waiver from NZX Listing Rule 5.2.3 is that initially the Bonds may

not be widely held and there may be reduced liquidity in the Bonds. To the

extent that there is a material reduction in the spread of the Bonds, Auckland

Airport will notify NZX accordingly.

NZX has also granted Auckland Airport a waiver from NZX Listing Rule 7.11.1

to allow Auckland Airport to allot the Bonds no later than 10 business days

after the Closing Date. The effect of the waiver from NZX Listing Rule 7.11.1 is

that the Bonds will be allotted later than 5 business days after the

Closing Date.

avoidance of doubt, the selling restrictions set out below in this Part A

apply only in respect of the Initial Offer.

No action has been or will be taken by the Issuer which would permit an

offer of Bonds to the public, or possession or distribution of any offering

material, in any country or jurisdiction where action for that purpose is

required (other than New Zealand).

By purchasing the Bonds, each bondholder is deemed to have

indemnified the Issuer, the Joint Lead Managers and Organising

Participant, and the Supervisor for any loss suffered by any of them

by reason of any breach of the selling restrictions.

United States of America

The Bonds have not been and will not be registered under the Securities

Act of 1933, as amended (Securities Act) and may not be offered or

sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S.

persons (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act (Regulation

S)) except in accordance with Regulation S or pursuant to an exemption

from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of

the Securities Act.

None of Auckland Airport, any Joint Lead Manager nor any person acting

on its or their behalf has engaged or will engage in any directed selling

efforts (as defined in Regulation S) in relation to the Bonds, and each of

Auckland Airport and the Joint Lead Managers has complied and will

comply with the offering restrictions in Regulation S.

The Bonds will not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for

the account or benefit of, U.S. persons (i) as part of their distribution at

any time, or (ii) otherwise until 40 days after the completion of the

distribution of all Bonds of the Tranche of which such Bonds are part,

as determined and certified by the Joint Lead Managers, except in

accordance with Rule 903 of Regulation S. Any Bonds sold to any

distributor, dealer or person receiving a selling concession, fee or other

remuneration during the distribution compliance period require a

confirmation or notice to the purchaser at or prior to the confirmation of

the sale to substantially the following effect:

“The Bonds covered hereby have not been 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 and may not be offered or sold within the United

States, or to or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons (as defined

in Regulation S under the Securities Act) (i) as part of their distribution

at any time or (ii) otherwise until 40 days after the later of the

commencement of the offering of the Bonds and the closing date

except in either case pursuant to a valid exemption from registration in

accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. Terms used

above have the meaning given to them by Regulation S.”

Until 40 days after the completion of the distribution of all Bonds of the

Tranche of which those Bonds are a part, an offer or sale of the Bonds

within the United States by the Joint Lead Managers or any dealer or

other distributor (whether or not participating in the offering) may violate

the registration requirements of the Securities Act if such offer or sale is

made otherwise than in accordance with Regulation S.

Relevant Member States of the European Economic Area

In relation to each Member State of the European Economic Area which

has implemented the Prospectus Directive (each, a Relevant Member

State), with effect from and including the date on which the Prospectus

Directive is implemented in that Relevant Member State (the Relevant

Implementation Date) no Bonds have been offered and no Bonds will

be offered that are the subject of the offering contemplated by this Terms

Sheet in relation thereto to the public in that Relevant Member State

Prospectus Directive;

(b) to fewer than 150 natural or legal persons (other than qualified

investors as defined in the Prospectus Directive) subject to obtaining

the prior consent of the Joint Lead Managers nominated by Auckland

Airport for any such offer; or

(c) in any other circumstances falling within Article 3(2) of the Prospectus

Directive,

provided that no such offer of the Bonds shall require Auckland Airport or

any Joint Lead Manager to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of

the Prospectus Directive or supplement a prospectus pursuant to Article

16 of the Prospectus Directive.

to the public in relation to any Bonds 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 Bonds to be offered so as to

enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe for the Bonds, as

the same may be varied in that Relevant Member State by any measure

implementing the Prospectus Directive in that Relevant Member State,
