OFFERING MEMORANDUM
NOT FOR GENERAL CIRCULATION
IN THE UNITED STATES
23OCT201021464604
g500,000,000 63/8% Senior Secured Notes due 2020
issued by, but with limited recourse to,
Telenet Finance Luxembourg S.C.A.
(a corporate partnership limited by shares (soci ´
et ´
e en commandite par actions) under the laws of the
Grand Duchy of Luxembourg trading companies registered under Number RCS B.155.894)
for the sole purpose of financing a loan, as an additional tranche under a senior credit facility, to
TELENET INTERNATIONAL FINANCE S.A.
Telenet Finance Luxembourg S.C.A., a corporate partnership limited by shares, soci ´
et ´
e en commandite par actions, incorporated under the laws of the
Grand Duchy of Luxembourg (the ``Issuer''). All of the ordinary shares of the Issuer are owned directly by Stichting Telenet Finance Luxembourg, a foundation
(stichting) established under the laws of The Netherlands (the ``Foundation'') and all of the general partnership shares of the Issuer are owned by Telenet
Finance Luxembourg S. `a r.l. (the ``GP''). The Issuer is offering e500 million aggregate principal amount of its 63/8% senior secured notes due 2020
(the ``Notes''). The Notes will mature on November 15, 2020. The Issuer will pay interest on the Notes semi-annually in cash in arrears on each May 15 and
November 15, commencing on May 15, 2011.
The proceeds from the offering of the Notes will be used by the Issuer to fund an additional facility under the Senior Credit Facility (as defined in this
offering memorandum) (the ``Finco Loan''), denominated in euro, borrowed by Telenet International Finance S.A. (``Telenet International Finance,'' as
borrower). Telenet International Finance is an entity wholly owned by Telenet NV. Telenet NV is an entity wholly owned by Telenet Group Holding NV (``Telenet
Group Holding''). The obligations of Telenet International Finance under the Finco Loan are guaranteed by Telenet NV only and not by Telenet Group Holding.
The Issuer is dependent upon payments under the Finco Loan and related agreements to make payments under the Notes. The Issuer will apply all payments
it receives under the Finco Loan and such related agreements, including in respect of principal, premiums, interest and any additional amounts following
certain tax events, to make corresponding payments under the Notes. Neither Telenet Group Holding nor any of its subsidiaries will guarantee or
provide credit support to the Issuer with respect to its obligations under the Notes and therefore, the Telenet Group Financial Statements
are included for information purposes only.
The accession agreement related to the Finco Loan will provide for the payment of certain additional payments in connection with certain voluntary and
mandatory prepayments of the Finco Loan that will enable the Issuer to pay the premiums payable in respect of corresponding redemptions of the Notes, as
described in ``Description of the Notes--Redemption and Repurchase''. Following a change of control as defined in the Senior Credit Facility, Telenet
International Finance will be required, at the election of the Majority Lenders under, and as defined in, the Senior Credit Facility, to prepay the Finco Loan plus
a payment in an amount equal to 1% of the principal amount of the Finco Loan. Following any such repayment, the Issuer will redeem all of the Notes issued
under the indenture governing the Notes at a redemption price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of
redemption. See ``Description of the Notes--Redemption upon a Change of Control.'' In the event of certain asset sales, Telenet International Finance may
elect, at its option, to (i) cause the Issuer to make an offer to purchase the Notes and prepay the Finco Loan in an amount equal to the principal amount of the
Notes tendered (not to exceed the available proceeds from the related asset sale) or (ii) subject to the payment of certain premiums, prepay the Finco Loan in
an amount equal to the available proceeds from the related asset sale, and, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii), the Issuer will redeem a corresponding amount of
Notes. See ``Description of the Notes--Redemption and Repurchase--Disposal Proceeds''. Further, the Notes may be redeemed at a price equal to their
principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest upon the occurrence of certain changes in tax law. See ``Description of the Notes--Redemption and
Repurchase--Redemption for Changes in Withholding Taxes''. Further, in connection with a Telenet Group Transfer (as defined in this offering memorandum),
subject to the receipt of certain consents of the noteholders, certain Notes may be redeemed, or an offer to redeem certain Notes may be made, at a price
equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.
The Notes are limited recourse obligations of the Issuer. In each case where amounts of principal, interest and other amounts (if any) are stated to be
payable in respect of the Notes, the obligation of the Issuer to make any such payment shall constitute the obligation only to account to holders of the Notes
for an amount equivalent to sums of principal, interest and other amounts (if any) actually received by or for the account of the Issuer pursuant to the Senior
Credit Facility and related agreements between the Issuer and Telenet International Finance and/or Telenet NV, as the case may be. Neither Telenet Group
Holding nor any of its subsidiaries will guarantee or provide any credit support to the Issuer with respect to its obligations under the Notes. Other than under
the limited circumstances described herein, holders of the Notes will not have a direct claim on the cash flow or assets of Telenet Group Holding or any of its
subsidiaries, and neither Telenet Group Holding nor any of its subsidiaries has any obligation, contingent or otherwise, to pay amounts due under the Notes,
or to make funds available to the Issuer for those payments, other than the obligations of Telenet International Finance to make payments to the Issuer
pursuant to the Finco Loan and agreements related thereto.
The Notes will be senior obligations of the Issuer. The Notes will be secured by, among other things, a first-ranking security interest in all of the ordinary
shares and the bank account of the Issuer, a first-ranking security interest in the entire share capital of the GP and a first-ranking security interest over the
Issuer's rights to and benefit in the Finco Loan (including all rights of the Issuer as a lender under the Senior Credit Facility (including the guarantees and
security granted in respect thereof)). In addition, other than in certain limited circumstances specified herein, holders of the Notes will not have any recourse
to the Issuer other than in respect of amounts received by the Issuer under the Senior Credit Facility and the related agreements. For a description of the
terms of the Notes, see ``Description of the Notes''.
See ``Risk Factors'' beginning on page 16 for a discussion of certain risks that you should consider in connection with an investment
in any of the Notes.
The Notes have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the ``U.S. Securities Act''), or
the securities laws of any other jurisdiction. The Issuer is offering the Notes only to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with
Rule 144A under the U.S. Securities Act and to non-U.S. persons outside the United States in accordance with Regulation S under the
U.S. Securities Act. For a description of certain restrictions on the transfer of the Notes see ``Plan of Distribution'' and ``Transfer
Restrictions''.
Application has been made to the Luxembourg Stock Exchange for the Notes to be admitted to listing on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock
Exchange and trading on the Euro MTF Market, which is not a regulated market (as defined by Article 1(13) of Directive 93/22/EEC).
The Notes are in registered form in denominations of e100,000 and integral multiples of e1,000 above e100,000. Notes have been issued in minimum
denominations of e100,000 principal amount. The Notes were represented on issue by one or more global Notes that have been delivered through Euroclear
Bank SA/NV, as operator of the Euroclear System (``Euroclear'') and Clearstream Banking (``Clearstream''), soci ´
et ´
e anonyme, on November 3, 2010.
Interests in each global Note will be exchangeable for the relevant definitive Notes only in certain limited circumstances. See ``Book-Entry, Delivery
and Form''.

PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL AND OTHER INFORMATION
Financial Data
Unless otherwise indicated, the historical consolidated financial information presented herein has
been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the
European Commission for use in the European Union (``IFRS'').
This offering memorandum includes the selected condensed consolidated interim financial statements
of Telenet Group Holding and its subsidiaries, as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2010
and the audited consolidated financial statements of Telenet Group Holding and its subsidiaries, as of and
for the years ended December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, which have been audited by KPMG
Bedrijfsrevisoren CVBA (together, the ``Telenet Group Financial Statements''). Telenet Group Holding's
historical results do not necessarily indicate results that may be expected for any future period. Neither
Telenet Group Holding nor any of its subsidiaries will guarantee or provide credit support to the Issuer
with respect to its obligations under the Notes and therefore, the Telenet Group Financial Statements are
included for information purposes only.
Telenet Group Holding's financial results are reported in euro denominations.
This offering memorandum contains non-IFRS measures and ratios, including Adjusted EBITDA,
and free cash flow that are not required by, or presented in accordance with IFRS. Telenet presents non-
IFRS measures because it believes that they and similar measures are widely used by certain investors,
securities analysts and other interested parties as supplemental measures of performance and liquidity.
The non-IFRS measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies and have
limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of
Telenet's operating results as reported under IFRS. Non-IFRS measures and ratios such as Adjusted
EBITDA and free cash flow are not measurements of Telenet's performance or liquidity under IFRS or
any other generally accepted accounting principles. In particular, you should not consider Adjusted
EBITDA as an alternative to (a) operating profit or profit for the period (as determined in accordance
with IFRS) as a measure of Telenet's operating performance, (b) cash flows from operating, investing and
financing activities as a measure of Telenet's ability to meet Telenet's cash needs or (c) any other measures
of performance under generally accepted accounting principles. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an
analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for an analysis of Telenet's
results as reported under IFRS. Some of these limitations are:
· it does not reflect Telenet's cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or
contractual commitments;
· it does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, Telenet's working capital needs;
· it does not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary, to service
interest or principal payments, on Telenet's debts;
· although depreciation, amortization and impairment are non-cash charges, the assets being
depreciated and amortized will generally need to be replaced in the future and Adjusted EBITDA
does not reflect any cash requirements that would be required for such replacements; and
· some of the exceptional items that Telenet eliminates in calculating Adjusted EBITDA reflect cash
payments that were made, or will in the future be made.
The Issuer was incorporated on September 28, 2010 for the purpose of the offering of the Notes.
Consequently, limited historical financial information relating to the Issuer is available, and the financial
information included in this offering memorandum with respect to the Issuer consists only of the Issuer's
opening balance sheet as of September 28, 2010, which has been prepared in accordance with the generally
accepted accounting principles of Luxembourg (``Luxembourg GAAP'') (the ``Issuer Financial
Statements''). Since its incorporation, no other financial statements of the Issuer have been prepared. The
Issuer intends to publish its first annual financial statements in respect of the year ended December 31,
2010. Financial statements will be published by the Issuer on an annual basis and the Issuer will prepare
interim half-yearly financial reports and publish them in accordance with applicable law.
As further described under ``General Description of Telenet's Business, the Issuer and the Offering--The
Issuer and Consolidation of the Issuer by Telenet'' below, following the issuance of the Notes and the related
advance of the Finco Loan to Telenet International Finance, the financial operations of the Issuer will be
consolidated with the Telenet Group for the purposes of IFRS.
