OFFERING MEMORANDUM
NOT FOR GENERAL CIRCULATION
IN THE UNITED STATES
Boing Group Financing plc
Guaranteed on a senior secured basis by Boing Midco Limited and certain subsidiaries of Boing Midco Limited
240,000,000
6.625% Senior Secured Notes due 2019
Interest payable January 15 and July 15
Issue price: 100.00% plus accrued interest, if any, from the Issue Date
Boing Group Financing plc (the "Issuer"), a public limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales,
issued 240,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 6.625% Senior Secured Notes due 2019 (the "Notes"), as part of
the financing for the acquisition (the "Acquisition") of Rose HoldCo Limited ("Rose Holdco") by Boing Acquisitions
Limited ("Bidco"), the parent company of the Issuer, which is beneficially owned by funds or limited partnerships
managed or advised by TDR Capital LLP ("TDR Capital"). The Notes will mature on July 15, 2019.
The Issuer will pay interest on the Notes semi-annually on each January 15 and July 15, commencing on January 15,
2015. The Issuer may redeem some or all the Notes prior to July 15, 2016 at a price equal to 100.000% of the principal
amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, plus a "make whole" premium, as described in
this offering memorandum. The Issuer may redeem some or all the Notes on or after July 15, 2016 at the redemption
prices set forth in this offering memorandum, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. In addition, prior to July 15, 2016,
the Issuer may redeem up to 40% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including additional Notes)
with the net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings at a price equal to 106.625% of the principal amount of the
Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, provided that at least 60% of the original aggregate principal
amount of the Notes (including additional Notes) remains outstanding after the redemption. Further, the Issuer may
redeem all, but not part, of the Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if
any, upon the occurrence of certain changes in applicable tax law. Upon certain events defined as constituting a change
of control, the Issuer may be required to offer to redeem the Notes at 101% of the principal amount redeemed, plus
accrued and unpaid interest, if any. However, a change of control will not be deemed to have occurred if certain
consolidated net leverage ratios are not exceeded in connection with such an event.
If the Acquisition was not consummated on or prior to November 14, 2014, the Notes would have been subject to a
special mandatory redemption. The special mandatory redemption price would have been a price equal to 100% of the
aggregate issue price of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional amounts, if any, to the date of special
mandatory redemption. See "Description of the Notes--Escrow of proceeds; Special Mandatory Redemption".
As of the Issue Date (as defined herein), the Notes are senior obligations of the Issuer and are guaranteed on a senior
secured basis (collectively, the "Note Guarantees" and each, a "Note Guarantee") by Boing Midco Limited (the
"Company") and by Bidco. As soon as reasonably practicable after the date on which the proceeds of the offering of the
Notes were released from the Escrow Account concurrently with the completion of the Acquisition on July 16, 2014 (the
"Completion Date"), but in any case not later than 60 days from the Completion Date, subject to the Agreed Security
Principles (as defined herein), the Notes will be guaranteed on a senior secured basis by the Rose Holdco and certain
subsidiaries of Rose Holdco (the "Subsidiary Guarantors", and together with the Company, Bidco and Rose Holdco, the
"Guarantors"). The guarantee of the Notes by each Guarantor (a "Note Guarantee" and, collectively, the "Note
Guarantees") will rank equally in right of payment with all the existing and future unsubordinated indebtedness of such
Guarantor, senior to all the existing and future indebtedness of such Guarantor that is subordinated in right of payment to
such Guarantor's Note Guarantee and effectively senior to all existing and future unsecured indebtedness of such
Guarantor to the extent of the assets securing such Guarantor's Note Guarantee. The Notes and the Note Guarantees will
be secured by liens on certain assets that also secure our obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility Agreement (as


defined herein), entered into on June 12, 2014. Pursuant to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement (as defined herein),
any liabilities in respect of obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility Agreement or in respect of certain hedging
obligations, in each case that are secured by assets that also secure our obligations under the Notes and the Note
Guarantees, will receive priority with respect to any proceeds received upon any enforcement action over any such assets.
There is currently no public market for the Notes. An application has been made to list the Notes on the Official List of
the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and to admit the Notes to trading on the Euro MTF Market. The Euro MTF Market is
not a regulated market pursuant to the provisions of Directive 2004/39/EC.
An investment in the Notes involves risks. See "Risk factors" beginning on page 26.
The Notes and the Note Guarantees have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 as
amended (the "Securities Act"), or the securities laws of any state of the United States or any other jurisdiction.
Accordingly, the Notes are being offered and sold in the United States only to "qualified institutional buyers" in
accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act and non-U.S. persons outside the United States in offshore
transactions in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. Prospective purchasers of the Notes that are
qualified institutional buyers are hereby notified that the seller may be relying on the exemption from the provisions of
Section 5 of the Securities Act provided by Rule 144A. For further details about eligible offerees and resale restrictions,
see "Notice to investors".
The Notes were issued in the form of global notes in registered form. See "Book entry, delivery and form". The Notes
were delivered to investors in book entry form through Euroclear Bank SA/NV ("Euroclear") and Clearstream Banking,
société anonyme ("Clearstream") on July 10, 2014 (the "Issue Date"). This offering memorandum constitutes a
prospectus for the purpose of the Luxembourg law dated July 10, 2005 on Prospectuses for Securities, as amended.

Stabilization
IN CONNECTION WITH THE OFFERING OF THE NOTES, J.P. MORGAN SECURITIES PLC OR ONE OF ITS
AFFILIATES OR PERSONS ACTING ON ITS BEHALF (THE "STABILIZING MANAGER") MAY OVER ALLOT
NOTES OR EFFECT TRANSACTIONS WITH A VIEW TO SUPPORTING THE MARKET PRICE OF THE NOTES
AT A LEVEL HIGHER THAN THAT WHICH MIGHT OTHERWISE PREVAIL. HOWEVER, THERE IS NO
ASSURANCE THAT A STABILIZING MANAGER WILL UNDERTAKE STABILIZATION ACTION. ANY
STABILIZATION ACTION MAY BEGIN ON OR AFTER THE DATE ON WHICH ADEQUATE PUBLIC
DISCLOSURE OF THE TERMS OF THE OFFERING OF THE NOTES IS MADE AND, IF BEGUN, MAY BE
ENDED AT ANY TIME, BUT IT MUST END NO LATER THAN 30 DAYS AFTER THE ISSUE DATE, OR NO
LATER THAN 60 DAYS AFTER THE DATE OF THE ALLOTMENT OF THE NOTES, WHICHEVER IS EARLIER.
Each purchaser of the Notes will be deemed to have made the representations, warranties and acknowledgements that are
described in this offering memorandum under the "Notice to investors" section of this offering memorandum.
Alternative settlement cycle
Delivery of the Notes has been made against payment therefor on July 10, 2014, which was the fifth London business
day (fourth New York business day) following the date of pricing of the Notes (such settlement cycle being herein
referred to as "T+5"). Under Rule 15(c)6 1 under the Exchange Act (as defined herein), trades in the secondary market
generally are required to settle in three business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise.
Accordingly, purchasers who wished to trade Notes on the date of pricing or the next two succeeding business days were
required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes initially settled T+5, to specify an alternative settlement cycle at the time of
any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of Notes who wished to trade Notes on the date of pricing or the
next succeeding business day should have consulted their advisors.

Forward looking statements
This offering memorandum contains "forward looking statements" within the meaning of the securities laws of certain
jurisdictions, including statements under the captions "Summary", "Risk factors", "Management's discussion and
analysis of financial condition and results of operations", "Industry", "Our business" and in other sections. In some cases,
these forward looking statements can be identified by the use of forward looking terminology, including the words
"believes", "could", "estimates", "anticipates", "expects", "intends", "may", "will", "plans", "continue", "ongoing",
"potential", "predict", "project", "target", "seek", "should" or "would" or, in each case, their negative or other variations
or comparable terminology or by discussions of strategies, plans, objectives, targets, goals, future events or intentions.
These forward looking statements include all matters that are not historical facts. They appear in a number of places
throughout this offering memorandum and include statements regarding our intentions, beliefs or current expectations
concerning, among other things, our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, prospects, growth, strategies and
dividend policy and the industry in which we operate.
By their nature, forward looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties because they relate to
events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. Forward looking statements are not
guarantees of future performance. You should not place undue reliance on these forward looking statements.
Many factors may cause our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and the development of the industry in
which we compete to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward looking statements contained in
this offering memorandum.
These factors include, among others, risks related:
·
to deterioration in general macro-economic conditions;
·
to the weather (particularly rain, snow and severe cold spells);
·
