INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT FINANCE, S.A.
12.000% Senior Secured Notes due 2033

International Airport Finance, S.A. (the "Issuer"), a company (sociedad anónima) incorporated under the laws of the Kingdom of Spain ("Spain"), is offering
U.S.$400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 12.000% Senior Secured Notes due 2033 (the "Notes"). The Notes will mature on March 15, 2033. The Issuer will pay
interest on the Notes in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing on September 15, 2019. Principal on the Notes will be payable semi-annually
on the same dates as interest on the Notes beginning on September 15, 2020 (other than the Scheduled Payment Date on March 15, 2021). See "Description of the
Notes--Notes Collateral." The Notes will be secured by a first priority security interest in the collateral described herein. The Notes will constitute general senior
secured obligations of the Issuer. The Notes will rank pari passu in right of payment with all of the Issuer's existing and future senior unsubordinated indebtedness, and
will rank senior to any future subordinated indebtedness of the Issuer. The Notes will be effectively senior to any of the Issuer's future unsecured indebtedness to the
extent of the Notes Collateral (as defined herein) securing the Notes and effectively subordinated to all of the Issuer's future indebtedness secured by assets other than the
Notes Collateral to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness (other than obligations preferred by statute or Applicable Law (as defined herein).
On the Issue Date, the Issuer will use the net proceeds of the Notes to (i) irrevocably purchase and assume all of the Existing Lenders' (as defined herein) rights and
obligations under the Existing Loans Agreement (as defined herein) in an aggregate amount of U.S.$66,998,881.48 (the "Assigned Loans") and (ii) make one or more
loans in an aggregate amount of U.S.$333,001,118.52 (the "New Loans," and together with the Assigned Loans, the "Loans") to Corporación Quiport S.A. ("Quiport" or
the "Borrower"), a stock corporation formed under the laws of the Republic of Ecuador ("Ecuador") as Borrower, pursuant to the Loans Agreement. Upon the purchase
and assignment of the Assigned Loans, the Existing Loans Agreement will be amended and restated as the Loans Agreement and the New Loans will be made under the
Loans Agreement. The Borrower will apply the proceeds of the New Loans, together with funds in its existing accounts (x) to repay in full, on or around the Issue Date,
all amounts outstanding under its Intercompany Loans (as defined herein), (y) to make a retained dividend distribution to its Shareholders (as defined herein) following
completion of its corporate reorganization, and (z) for certain general corporate purposes. See "Use of Proceeds." The aggregate principal amount of the Loans will be in
an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Notes. The Loans will not be secured and will rank pari passu in right of payment with all of Quiport's existing
and future senior unsecured indebtedness and senior to any existing or future subordinated indebtedness of Quiport.
Quiport may, at its option, prepay the Loans, in whole but not in part, at any time and from time to time prior to March 15, 2024, at a price of (a) 100% of the principal
amount of the Loans plus (b) accrued and unpaid interest (which interest shall include Additional Amounts (as defined herein), if any) to (but excluding) the prepayment
date, plus (c) the Make-Whole Premium (as defined herein) at the prepayment date. Quiport may, at its option, prepay the Loans, in whole but not in part, on or after
March 15, 2024, at the prices (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount of the Loans to be prepaid) set forth in these listing particulars, plus accrued and unpaid
interest (which interest shall include Additional Amounts, if any) to (but excluding) the prepayment date. See "The Loans Agreement and the Loans--Prepayments of the
Loans." In addition, Quiport may prepay the Loans, in whole but not in part, at a price equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid
interest and Additional Amounts, if any, at any time upon the occurrence of specified events relating to tax law, as set forth in these listing particulars. See "The Loans
Agreement and the Loans--Prepayments of the Loans--Optional Prepayment for Changes in Taxes." Upon any such prepayment of the Loans, the Issuer will redeem an
aggregate principal amount of Notes equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Loans that has been prepaid. See "Description of the Notes--Mandatory Redemption
Upon Prepayment of Loans." In addition, upon the occurrence of certain events, Quiport will be required to make an offer to prepay the Loans at the price as set forth in
these listing particulars. Upon receipt of an offer to prepay the Loans, the Issuer will be required to offer to purchase the Notes at the price as set forth in these listing
particulars. See "The Loans Agreement and the Loans--Mandatory Prepayments" and "Description of the Notes--Offers to Purchase the Notes."
On the date of issuance of the Notes (the "Issue Date"), of the U.S.$400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Notes being issued in total, the Issuer will place
U.S.$20,000,000, constituting an "eligible vertical interest" in the form of 5% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, directly to Quiport, acting as the "sponsor"
of a "securitization transaction," or a "majority-owned affiliate" thereof (each as defined in the U.S. Risk Retention Rule (as defined herein)), and Quiport will purchase
and hold such Notes, either directly from the Issuer or through the Initial Purchasers, on an ongoing basis for so long as required by the U.S. Risk Retention Rule.
There is currently no public market for the Notes. Application has been made to the Luxembourg Stock Exchange to approve these listing particulars as a prospectus for
the purposes of Part IV of the Luxembourg law on prospectus for securities dated July 10, 2005, as amended, and for the Notes to be admitted to the official list of the
Luxembourg Stock Exchange (the "Official List") and to trading on the Euro MTF Market of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (the "Euro MTF"). Admission to the Euro
MTF of, and listing and quotation of the Notes on, the Euro MTF are not to be taken as an indication of the merits of the Issuer or the Notes. See "Listing and General

Market Registry (Catastro de Mercado de Valores) of the Superintendency of Companies, Securities and
Insurance of Ecuador (Superintendencia de Compañías, Valores y Seguros de la República del Ecuador

Spain except in circumstances which do not qualify as a public offer (oferta pública) of securities in
Spain within the meaning and in accordance with article 35 of the Securities Market Act (Real Decreto
Legislativo 4/2015, de 23 de octubre, por el que se aprueba el texto refundido de la Ley del Mercado de
Valores), as amended and restated, or pursuant to an exemption from registration in accordance with
Royal Decree 1310/2005 as amended (Real Decreto 1310/2005, de 4 de noviembre, por el que se
desarrolla parcialmente la Ley 24/1988, de 28 de julio, del Mercado de Valores, en materia de admisión

time.

Notice to Prospective Investors
European Economic Area
The Notes 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 European Economic Area (the "EEA"). For
the purposes of this provision the expression "retail investor" means a person who is one (or more) of the
following: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II, as implemented in any
Member State of the EEA, (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive 2002/92/EC, as amended (the
"Insurance Mediation Directive"), as implemented in any Member State of the EEA, where that customer
would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II, as
implemented in any Member State of the EEA, or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in Directive
2003/71/EC (as amended, the "Prospectus Directive"), as implemented in any Member State of the EEA.
Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014, as amended
(the "PRIIPs Regulation"), for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail
investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making
them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation. These
listing particulars have been prepared on the basis that any offer of Notes in any Member State of the
EEA will be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Directive from the requirement to
publish a prospectus for offers of Notes. These listing particulars are not a prospectus for purposes of the
Prospectus Directive.
MIFID II Product Governance
The final terms in respect of any Notes may include a legend entitled "MiFID II Product Governance"
which will outline the target market assessment in respect of the Notes and which channels for
distribution of the Notes are appropriate. Any person subsequently offering, selling or recommending the
Notes (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
assessment in respect of the Notes (by either adopting or refining the manufacturers' target market
assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.
A determination will be made in relation to each issue about whether, for the purpose of the MiFID
Product Governance rules under EU Delegated Directive 2017/593 (the "MiFID Product Governance
Rules"), as implemented in any Member State of the EEA, any dealer subscribing for any Notes is a
manufacturer in respect of such Notes, but otherwise neither the Initial Purchasers nor the dealers nor any
vi

of their respective affiliates will be a manufacturer for the purpose of the MIFID Product Governance
Rules.
Spain
Neither the Notes nor this offering have been registered with the Spanish National Securities Market
Commission (Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores). Therefore, the Notes may not be offered,
sold, resold or distributed to persons in Spain, except in circumstances which do not qualify as a public
offer (oferta pública) of securities in Spain within the meaning and in accordance with Article 35 of the
Spanish Securities Market Law approved by Royal Legislative Decree 4/2015, of October 23, (Texto
refundido de la Ley del Mercado de Valores aprobado por el Real Decreto Legislativo 4/2015, de 23 de
octubre, por el que se aprueba el texto refundido de la Ley del Mercado de Valores) (the ``Spanish
Securities Market Law), as amended and restated, or pursuant to an exemption from registration in
accordance with Spanish Royal Decree 1310/2005, of November 4, on the listing of securities, public
offers and applicable prospectus, as amended (Real Decreto 1310/2005, de 4 de noviembre, por el que se
desarrolla parcialmente la Ley 24/1988, de 28 de julio, del Mercado de Valores, en materia de admisión
a negociación de valores en mercados secundarios oficiales, de ofertas públicas de venta o suscripción y
del folleto exigible a tales efectos), and any regulations developing it which may be in force from time to
time.

communicated and will only communicate or cause to be communicated an invitation or inducement to
engage in investment activity (within the meaning of Section 21 of the Financial Services and Markets
Act 2000 ("FSMA")) received by it in connection with the issue or sale of the Notes in circumstances in

Available Information
Neither the Issuer nor Quiport is subject to the information requirements of the United States Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). To preserve the exemption for resales and

remain outstanding, to make available, upon request, to any holder and any prospective purchaser of
Notes who is designated by that holder and is a "qualified institutional buyer," as defined under
Rule 144A, upon the request of such holder or prospective purchaser, the information required pursuant to

Presentation of Financial and Other Information
Financial Information
Issuer's Financial Information
The Issuer was incorporated on January 31, 2019, and has no operating history. As a result, it has not
prepared financial statements for any period. The Issuer has an authorized share capital of 100,000,
represented by 100,000 registered ordinary shares of a par value of 1.00 each, all of which are fully
subscribed and paid up. The Issuer has no material business operations and upon completion of this
offering will have no material assets or liabilities other than its rights under and in respect of the Loans
and the Finance Documents (as defined herein) and obligations under the Notes and the Notes Documents
(as defined herein).
For this reason, these listing particulars do not include financial statements or other financial information
of the Issuer, other than its opening balance sheet prepared by the Issuer pursuant to Spanish generally
accepted accounting principles. See "The Issuer--Business and Principal Assets."
Quiport's Financial Information
We have included in these listing particulars our annual audited financial statements as of and for the
years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, together with the notes thereto (our "Financial
Statements").
Our Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting
Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standard Board ("IASB") and are stated in
U.S. dollars.
We prepare our Financial Statements in U.S. dollars which is our functional currency, IFRS differs in
certain significant respects from generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("U.S.
GAAP") and financial reporting standards and generally accepted accounting principles used in other
jurisdictions. We have made no attempt to quantify the impact of those differences by a reconciliation of
our Financial Statements or the other financial information included in these listing particulars to such
other generally accepted accounting principles and financial reporting standards.
In making an investment decision, you must rely upon your own examination of our Company, the terms
of the offering and the financial information included herein. Our financial information should be read in
conjunction with our Financial Statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in these listing
particulars. We urge you to consult your own advisors regarding the differences between IFRS and U.S.
GAAP, and how these differences might affect the financial information included in these listing
particulars.
Currencies Information
All references to "dollar," "U.S. dollars" or the symbol "U.S.$" are to the legal currency of the United
States, the U.S. dollar. All references to "sucre" are to the legal currency of Ecuador before the
Ecuadorian Economic Transformation Law (as defined herein). All references to "euro(s)," "EUR" or the
symbol "" are to the legal currency of the euro area.
In January of 2000, following several weeks of severe currency depreciation of the sucre, Ecuador
announced that it would "dollarize" the economy. On March 1, 2000, the Ecuadorian Congress approved
the Ecuadorian Economic Transformation Law (Ley para la Transformación Económica del Ecuador or
"Economic Transformation Law"), which made the U.S. dollar the legal currency in Ecuador. The
Ecuadorian Economic Transformation Law provided for the Ecuadorian Central Bank (Banco Central del
ix

Ecuador or the "Ecuadorian Central Bank") to exchange, on demand, sucres at a rate of 25,000 sucres per
U.S.$1.00 (the "Dollarization Program"). In addition to providing an official basis to dollarize the
economy, the Ecuadorian Economic Transformation Law contained reforms aimed at strengthening fiscal
stability, improving banking supervision and establishing rules to encourage direct investment. Since the
passage of the Ecuadorian Economic Transformation Law, the U.S. dollar has been the legal tender in
Ecuador. Due to the Dollarization Program, the ability of Ecuador and/or the Ecuadorian Central Bank to
adjust monetary policy and interest rates in order to influence macroeconomic trends in the economy is
limited.
Non-IFRS Financial Measures
We have included non-IFRS financial measures elsewhere in these listing particulars to clarify and
enhance the understanding of our past performance and future prospects, such as Adjusted EBITDA and
the ratios related thereto. These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS and do not have
standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information
to complement IFRS measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from
management's perspective. Accordingly, they should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for
analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS. We define Adjusted EBITDA as profit for the
year and total comprehensive income, plus amortization of intangible assets, equipment depreciation and
financial costs. For a reconciliation of our Adjusted EBITDA to our profit for the year and total
comprehensive income, see "Summary Financial and Other Data" and "Selected Financial and Other
Data."
We believe that Adjusted EBITDA may be useful for potential purchasers of the Notes in assessing our
operating performance, our ability to generate cash and our ability to meet our debt service requirements.
Our definition of Adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by
other companies in the airport sector or otherwise. Furthermore, these measures have limitations as
analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation from, or as an alternative to, profit (loss), gross
profit, cash flows from operations or other income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with IFRS.
You should exercise caution in comparing the non-IFRS financial measures reported by us to such
metrics or other similar metrics as reported by other companies in the airport sector or otherwise. None
of our non-IFRS measures is a measurement of performance under IFRS, and you should not consider
those measures as an alternative to profit determined in accordance with IFRS. The non-IFRS metrics do

Rounding
We have made rounding adjustments to reach some of the figures included in these listing particulars.
Accordingly, numerical figures shown as totals in some tables may not be an arithmetic aggregation of

included in these listing particulars.
