") and Credit Suisse Securities (Europe) Limited, as euro representative of the several euro initial purchasers named therein (the "
Euro Initial Purchasers
"), pursuant to which the Issuer agreed to sell, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of its 5.5% senior secured notes due 2028 (the "

The Issuer is a financing company that has no material business operations and has not engaged in any material transactions other than the transactions described herein. The Notes will be limited recourse and senior obligations of the Issuer. The Notes will be effectively subordinated to all liabilities of each subsidiary of the Issuer (if any). On the Issue Date, the Notes will be secured by, among other things, a first-ranking security interest in the bank accounts of the Issuer and a security interest over the Issuer's rights to and benefits in each of the 2017 Finco Loans (including all rights of the Issuer as a "Lender" under the Finance Documents (each as defined in the Credit Agreement) (including the 2017 Finco Accession Agreements) and any additional accession agreement to the Credit Agreement, or similar instrument or agreement, pursuant to which the Issuer advances the proceeds of the Notes (including any additional notes) or additional debt to the Group (as defined in the Credit Agreement) in respect of which the Issuer has any right, title, benefit and/or interest and the Intercreditor Agreement (as defined in the Credit Agreement)).
The Notes will rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future indebtedness of the Issuer that is not subordinated in right of payment to the Notes and the Notes are senior in right of payment to all existing and future indebtedness of the Issuer that is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes. The Issuer has no material business operations of its own and will primarily be dependent on payments under each of the 2017 Finco Loans in order to service its payment obligations under each series of Notes. Neither Telenet Group BVBA nor any of its subsidiaries provide any direct guarantee or any credit support for the Issuer's obligations under the Notes, other than the obligation of Telenet International Finance to make payments to the Issuer under each of the respective 2017 Finco Loans.
The 2017 Finco Loans are senior obligations of Telenet International Finance. The 2017 Finco Loans rank
pari passu
in right of payment with all existing and future indebtedness of Telenet International Finance that is not subordinated in right of payment to the 2017 Finco Loans and is senior in right of payment to all existing and future indebtedness of Telenet International Finance that is subordinated in right of payment to the 2017 Finco Loans. The 2017 Finco Loans will be secured by the security interests

granted to the security agent under the Credit Agreement to secure the existing Telenet Additional Facilities (as defined in the Credit Agreement).
The Indenture will provide that, following the issuance of the Notes, at the election of Telenet International Finance, the Notes may be assigned to a financing company or a designated notes issuer incorporated under the laws of Belgium for the purpose of assuming the Issuer's rights and obligations under the Notes, the Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement (as defined in the Credit Agreement), the Credit Agreement and the other related agreements. In addition, at the election of Telenet International Finance, each 2017 Finco Loan may be exchanged, on a cash or cashless basis, for loans under new additional facilities under the Credit Agreement in an equal principal amount and having substantially identical terms (other than with respect to the borrower of such loan) as such 2017 Finco Loan.
