Brussels Airport Company NV/SA (BAC) (the Issuer) established a multicurrency programme for the issuance by the Issuer of bonds (the Bonds)
from time to time on and after the Initial Issue Date, denominated in any currency agreed between the Issuer and the relevant Dealer (as defined
below) (the Programme). The aggregate nominal amount of Bonds outstanding will not at any time exceed EUR 5,000,000,000 (or the equivalent in
other currencies). DistributienetBeheer Brussels Airport NV (DNB) provides a guarantee of the obligations of the Obligors (defined below) under
the Finance Documents (including the obligations of the Issuer under the Bonds) in accordance with the terms of the Security Trust and Intercreditor
Deed (defined below).
This offering circular (the Offering Circular) includes information on the terms of the Bonds, including security, covenants and transfer restrictions.
This Offering Circular constitutes a base prospectus for the purposes of the Luxembourg Act dated 10 July 2005 relating to prospectuses for
securities, as amended (the Prospectus Act 2005). Application has been made to the Luxembourg Stock Exchange in its capacity as market operator
of the Euro MTF market (the Euro MTF Market) under the Luxembourg act relating to prospectuses for securities (loi relative aux prospectus pour
valeurs mobilières) to list, and admit to trading, Bonds issued under the Programme on the Euro MTF Market. Application has been made to the
Luxembourg Stock Exchange in its capacity as competent authority (the Competent Authority) under Part IV of the Prospectus Act 2005 for the
approval of this Offering Circular as a base prospectus and application may be made to the Luxembourg Stock Exchange for Bonds issued under the
Programme to be listed on the Euro MTF Market operated by the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (the Euro MTF Market is not a regulated market
pursuant to the provisions of Directive 2004/39/EC (the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive) but is subject to the supervision of the
financial sector and exchange regulator, the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF)) and listed on the Official List of the
Luxembourg Stock Exchange (the Official List), during the period of 12 months from the date hereof. References in this Offering Circular to Bonds
being listed (and all related references) shall mean that such Bonds have been admitted to the Official List and admitted to trading on the Euro MTF
Market.
The Bonds may be issued, on a continuing basis, to one or more of the Dealers specified under "Overview of Brussels Airport and the Programme -
Parties and Some Characteristics of the Programme" and any additional Dealer appointed under the Programme from time to time by the Issuer,
which appointment may be for a specific issue or on an ongoing basis. References in this Offering Circular to the relevant Dealer shall, in the case
of an issue of Bonds being (or intended to be) subscribed by more than one Dealer or in respect of which subscriptions will be procured by more than
one Dealer, be to all Dealers agreeing to subscribe for such Bonds or to procure subscriptions for such Bonds, as the case may be.
Notice of the aggregate nominal amount of Bonds, interest (if any) payable in respect of Bonds, the issue price of Bonds and any other terms and
conditions not contained herein which are applicable to each Series (as defined herein) of Bonds will be set out in a final terms document (the Final
Terms), which, with respect to Bonds to be traded on the Euro MTF Market, will be delivered to the Luxembourg Stock Exchange.
The Programme provides that Bonds may be listed on such other or further stock exchange(s) as may be agreed between the Issuer and the relevant
Dealer. The Issuer may also issue unlisted Bonds and/or Bonds not admitted to trading on the Market.
Bonds issued under the Programme and the guarantees thereof 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, and may not
be offered, sold, pledged or delivered 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 pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the
Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.
Accordingly, the Bonds may be offered or sold in offshore transactions to persons that are not U.S. persons in reliance on Regulation S. For a
description of certain restrictions on resales and transfers, as to which each purchaser of Bonds will be deemed to have acknowledged, represented
and agreed, see "Subscription and Sale" in this Offering Circular.
The Bonds have not been approved or disapproved by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), any federal or state securities
commission in the United States or any other U.S. regulatory authority, nor have any of the foregoing authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits
of the offering of the Bonds or the accuracy or adequacy of this Offering Circular. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offence in the
United States.
The Issuer may agree with any Dealer that Bonds may be issued in a form not contemplated by the Terms and Conditions of the Bonds herein, in
which event a new Offering Circular, in the case of listed Bonds only, if appropriate, will be made available which will describe the effect of the
agreement reached in relation to such Bonds.
The Bonds will be issued in dematerialised form (gedematerialiseerd/dématérialisé) in accordance with Articles 468 et seq. of the Belgian Company
Code (Wetboek van Vennootschappen/Code des Sociétés) (the Belgian Company Code) and cannot be physically delivered. The Bonds will be
represented exclusively by book entry in the records of the clearing system operated by the National Bank of Belgium (NBB) or any successor thereto
(the Clearing System). Access to the Clearing System is available through those of its Clearing System participants whose membership extends to
securities such as the Bonds. Clearing System participants include certain banks, stockbrokers (beursvennootschappen/sociétés de bourse), and
Euroclear Bank NV/SA (Euroclear) and Clearstream Banking S.A., Luxembourg (Clearstream, Luxembourg). Accordingly, the Bonds will be
eligible to clear through, and therefore accepted by, Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg, and investors can hold their Bonds within securities
accounts in Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg. Bonds shall only be issued under the Programme insofar as these can be cleared through the
Clearing System and shall only be issued in accordance with the rules of the Clearing System.
The Bonds are not intended, from 1 January 2018, to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and, with effect from such date, should not be
offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area (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 Directive 2014/65/EU (MiFID II); or (ii) a customer
within the meaning of Directive 2002/92/EC (IMD), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article
4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in Directive 2003/71/EC (as amended, the Prospectus Directive). Consequently no key
information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (the PRIIPs Regulation) for offering or selling the Bonds or otherwise making
them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Bonds or otherwise making them available to any
retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPS Regulation.
An investment in Bonds issued under the Programme involves certain risks. Please see "Risk Factors" beginning on page 15.
i

The Bonds to be issued under the Programme are expected on issue to be assigned a "Baa1" rating by Moody's Investors Service Limited (Moody's)
and a "BBB" rating by Fitch Ratings Ltd (Fitch and, at the Initial Issue Date together with Moody's, the Rating Agencies). Each Rating Agency is
established in the European Union and registered under Regulation (EC) No. 1060/2009 (as amended) (the CRA Regulation). As such each of
Moody's and Fitch is included in the list of credit agencies published by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) on its website (at
www.esma.europa.eu/page/list-registered-and-certified-CRAs) in accordance with the CRA Regulation. Bonds issued under the Programme may be
rated or unrated by any one or more of the Rating Agencies. Where a Series or Tranche of Bonds is rated, such rating will be disclosed in the
applicable Final Terms. Such rating will not necessarily be the same as the rating assigned to the Programme. Whether or not a rating in relation to
any Tranche of Bonds will be treated as having been issued by a credit rating agency established in the European Union and registered under the CRA
Regulation will be disclosed in the relevant Final Terms. A rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to
suspension, reduction or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency. Please also refer to "Risk Factors - Credit ratings may not reflect all
risks relating to the Bonds" in this Offering Circular.

ii

Any investment or investment activity to which this Offering Circular relates is available only to, and any
invitation, offer or agreement to subscribe, purchase or otherwise acquire such investments will be engaged
in only with, relevant persons.
Neither the delivery of this Offering Circular nor the offering, sale or delivery of any Bonds shall in any
circumstances imply that the information contained herein concerning the Issuer or the Obligors is correct at
any time subsequent to the date hereof or that any other information supplied in connection with the
Programme is correct or that there has been no adverse change in the financial position of the Issuer or the
Obligors as of any time subsequent to the date indicated in the document containing the same. None of the
Dealers, the Bond Trustee, the Security Trustee or the Agents (defined below) undertake to review the
financial condition or affairs of any of the Issuer or the Obligors during the life of the Programme or to
advise any investor in the Bonds of any information coming to their attention.
This Offering Circular is not intended to provide the basis of any credit or other evaluation and should not be
considered as a recommendation by the Issuer, any Obligor, any Dealer, the Bond Trustee, the Security
Trustee or any Agent that any recipient of this Offering Circular should purchase any of the Bonds.
No person has been authorised to give any information or to make any representation other than those
contained in this Offering Circular in connection with the issue or sale of the Bonds and, if given or made,
such information or representation must not be relied upon as having been authorised by the Issuer, the
Guarantor or any of the Dealers (as defined in the section entitled "Overview of the Programme"). Neither
the delivery of this Offering Circular nor any sale made in connection herewith shall, under any
circumstances, create any implication that there has been no change in the affairs of the Issuer or the
Guarantor since the date hereof or the date upon which this Offering Circular has been most recently
amended or supplemented or that there has been no adverse change in the financial position of the Issuer or
the Guarantor since the date hereof or the date upon which this Offering Circular has been most recently
amended or supplemented or that any other information supplied in connection with the Programme is
correct as of any time subsequent to the date on which it is supplied or, if different, the date indicated in the
document containing the same.
Each person contemplating making an investment in the Bonds must make its own investigation and analysis
of the creditworthiness of the Issuer and the Obligors and its own determination of the suitability of any such
investment, with particular reference to its own investment objectives and experience and any other factors
which may be relevant to it in connection with such investment. A prospective investor who is in any doubt
whatsoever as to the risks involved in investing in the Bonds should consult independent professional
advisers.
In making an investment decision, investors must rely on their own examination of the Issuer and the
Obligors and the terms of the Bonds being offered, including the merits and risks involved.
The Bonds may not be a suitable investment for all investors. Each potential investor in the Bonds must
determine the suitability of that investment in light of its own circumstances. In particular, each potential
investor should:

have sufficient knowledge and experience to make a meaningful evaluation of the Bonds, the merits
and risks of investing in the Bonds and the information contained in this Offering Circular, any
supplemental Offering Circular or any applicable Final Terms;

have access to, knowledge of and appropriate analytical tools to evaluate, in the context of its
particular financial situation, an investment in the Bonds and the impact the Bonds will have on its
overall investment portfolio;
iii

have sufficient financial resources and liquidity to bear all of the risks of an investment in the Bonds,
including Bonds with principal or interest payable in one or more currencies or where the currency
for principal or interest payments is different from the potential investor's currency;

understand thoroughly the terms of the Bonds and be familiar with the behaviour of any relevant
indices and financial markets; and

be able to evaluate (either alone or with the help of a financial adviser) possible scenarios for
economic, interest rate and other factors that may affect its investment and its ability to bear the
applicable risks.
The Bonds are complex financial instruments. Sophisticated institutional investors generally do not purchase
complex financial instruments as stand-alone investments. They purchase complex financial instruments as
a way to reduce risk or enhance yield with an understood, measured, appropriate addition of risk to their
overall portfolios. A potential investor should not invest in Bonds which are complex financial instruments
unless it has the experience (either alone or with a financial adviser) to evaluate how the Bonds will perform
under changing conditions, the resulting effects on the value of the Bonds and the impact this investment will
have on the potential investor's overall investment portfolio.
In addition, the investment activities of certain investors are subject to legal investment laws and regulations,
or review or regulation by certain authorities. Each potential investor should consult its legal advisers to
determine whether and to what extent Bonds are legal investments for it, Bonds can be used as security for
indebtedness and whether other restrictions apply to its purchase or pledge of any Bonds. Financial
institutions should consult their legal advisers or the appropriate regulators to determine the appropriate
treatment of Bonds under any applicable risk-based capital or similar rules.
The distribution of this Offering Circular and the offering, sale or delivery of the Bonds in certain
jurisdictions may be restricted by law. Persons into whose possession this Offering Circular comes are
required by the Issuer, the Obligors and the Dealers to inform themselves about and to observe any such
restrictions. This Offering Circular does not constitute, and may not be used for the purposes of, an offer to
or solicitation by any person to subscribe for or purchase any Bonds in any jurisdiction or in any
circumstances in which such an offer or solicitation is not authorised or is unlawful.

offering, issue or sale of the Bonds and, if given or made, such information or representations must not be
relied upon as having been authorised by the Issuer, the Obligors, the Dealers, the Bond Trustee, the Security
Trustee or any Agent. Neither the delivery of this Offering Circular nor any offering or sale of Bonds made

that there has been no change in the affairs of the Issuer or any Obligor since the date hereof or the date upon

which this Offering Circular has been most recently amended or supplemented, or that any other information
supplied in connection with the Programme is correct as of any time subsequent to the date on which it is

of the Bonds. Each Dealer accordingly disclaims all and any liability whether arising in tort or contract or
otherwise (save as referred to above) which it might otherwise have in respect of this Offering Circular or
any such statement. Neither this Offering Circular nor any other financial statements are intended to provide
the basis of any credit or other evaluation and should not be considered as a recommendation by any of the
Issuer, the Obligors or the Dealers that any recipient of this Offering Circular or any other financial
statements should purchase the Bonds. Each potential purchaser of Bonds should determine for itself the
relevance of the information contained in this Offering Circular and its purchase of Bonds should be based
upon such investigation as it deems necessary. No Dealer undertakes to review the financial condition or

or to advise any investor or potential investor in the Bonds of any information coming to the attention of any
of the Dealers.

Circular or any other information supplied in connection with the Bonds or their distribution. The statements
