<h2 id="h-business-nbsp-overview-nbsp" class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Business&nbsp;overview</strong>&nbsp;</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">ACS Finance p.l.c. forms part of the&nbsp;Audentia&nbsp;Capital Group, an international alternative investment and infrastructure-focused group&nbsp;established&nbsp;in Malta in 2011. The Group&nbsp;operates&nbsp;across Malta, Luxembourg, Ireland, and Spain through regulated investment management,&nbsp;securitisation, and alternative investment structures.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The&nbsp;Group&nbsp;manages over 100 investment vehicles with more than €3 billion in assets under management and has built a strong presence within alternative investments and infrastructure-backed financial structures.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">ACS Finance p.l.c.&nbsp;holds 36% of the economic rights arising from a government-funded public&nbsp;concession&nbsp;granted by the Catalonia region for the ordinary maintenance of 15 stations forming part of Line 9 Sud of the Barcelona Metro system.&nbsp;</p>



<div style="margin-top: 50px;">
</div>



<h2 id="h-overview-nbsp-of-nbsp-the-underlying-asset-nbsp" class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Overview&nbsp;of&nbsp;the underlying asset</strong>&nbsp;</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The underlying asset relates to Barcelona Metro Line 9 Sud, one of Europe’s largest and most modern metro infrastructure projects. The line connects Barcelona Airport with the city&nbsp;centre&nbsp;and surrounding&nbsp;neighbourhoods&nbsp;and is&nbsp;recognised&nbsp;as the longest automated metro line in Europe.&nbsp;</p>

<div style="margin-top: 50px;">
</div>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The&nbsp;concession&nbsp;benefits from long-term availability-based payments, providing stable and predictable&nbsp;cashflows&nbsp;with no passenger demand risk. The concession runs until August 2041 and is&nbsp;ultimately&nbsp;supported&nbsp;by&nbsp;Infraestructures&nbsp;Ferroviàries&nbsp;de Catalunya (IFERCAT), the railway infrastructure agency fully owned by the Government of Catalonia.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The Barcelona Metro Line 9 Sud project forms part of a sustainable public transport network aligned with EU Green Taxonomy&nbsp;objectives&nbsp;and&nbsp;supports low-emission urban mobility.&nbsp;It&nbsp;is&nbsp;operated&nbsp;under ESG-compliant standards&nbsp;and&nbsp;comprises&nbsp;15 metro stations and 11 ventilation and emergency shafts across the operational section of Line 9 Sud.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The stations include direct airport connectivity through the&nbsp;Aeroport&nbsp;T1 and&nbsp;Aeroport&nbsp;T2 stations, serving one of Spain’s busiest airports.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The infrastructure is considered strategically important for the Catalonia region and benefits from continued governmental support through IFERCAT and the Generalitat de Catalunya. Passenger numbers across Barcelona’s metro network&nbsp;continue&nbsp;to grow steadily, with Line 9 Sud serving as a key transport link between Barcelona city&nbsp;centre&nbsp;and El Prat Airport.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The concession has&nbsp;demonstrated&nbsp;a strong operational&nbsp;track record&nbsp;since operations&nbsp;began, with no historical deductions or penalties reported under the availability&nbsp;of&nbsp;payment mechanism. Maintenance obligations are managed under fixed contractual arrangements extending to 2041, further enhancing&nbsp;cashflow&nbsp;visibility.&nbsp;</p>



<div style="margin-top: 50px;">
</div>



<h2 id="h-use-of-nbsp-proceeds-nbsp" class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Use of&nbsp;proceeds</strong>&nbsp;</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The net proceeds from the Bond Issue will be&nbsp;utilised&nbsp;to finance the acquisition of the economic rights linked to the concession asset and support the Group’s broader infrastructure financing strategy.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The Bond Issue is intended to strengthen the Group’s long-term funding structure while supporting continued investment in infrastructure-backed assets with stable cashflow characteristics.&nbsp;</p>

</div>



<h2 id="h-security-nbsp-package-nbsp" class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Security&nbsp;package</strong>&nbsp;</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The Bonds are secured through a pledge over the economic rights associated with the underlying concession asset linked to Barcelona Metro Line 9 Sud. The asset has an estimated&nbsp;economic&nbsp;value of approximately €88 million according to the transaction structure presented.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">A Security Trustee will act on behalf of bondholders to hold and administer the security package collectively. The transaction structure is designed to provide investors with&nbsp;additional&nbsp;protection through secured exposure to long-term infrastructure-related cashflows.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The Bonds benefit from an investment-grade BBB rating assigned by&nbsp;EthiFinance,&nbsp;an EU-registered credit rating agency,&nbsp;reflecting the concession’s availability-based revenue model and the credit quality of the Catalonia regional government supporting the concession payments.&nbsp;BBB is an investment grade credit rating&nbsp;indicating&nbsp;the issuer has adequate capacity to meet its financial commitments, offering investors a meaningful level of credit confidence.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<h2 id="h-business-nbsp-overview-nbsp" class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Business&nbsp;overview</strong>&nbsp;</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">AGB Finance p.l.c. forms part of the AGB&nbsp;Group, which, through the&nbsp;Guarantor, is principally involved in the acquisition, development, and rental of immovable property across Malta. The&nbsp;Group&nbsp;operates&nbsp;across the accommodation and tourism, commercial, and residential markets.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The&nbsp;Group has&nbsp;established&nbsp;a&nbsp;growing&nbsp;presence within Malta&#8217;s real estate and tourism sectors through a portfolio of operational hospitality assets, development projects, commercial premises, and residential properties&nbsp;located&nbsp;in prime areas across the island.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The Bond Issue forms part of the&nbsp;Group&#8217;s broader financing&nbsp;strategy to support ongoing&nbsp;development projects, strengthen its capital structure, and drive long-term&nbsp;growth through income-generating&nbsp;assets.&nbsp;</p>



<div style="margin-top: 50px;">
</div>



<h2 id="h-overview-of-nbsp-holdings-nbsp" class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Overview of&nbsp;holdings</strong>&nbsp;</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The Group’s portfolio consists of a mix of operational hospitality assets, income-generating commercial units, and residential and mixed-use developments across Malta, primarily structured to generate long-term rental income.</p>



<h3 id="h-hospitality-assets-nbsp" class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Hospitality assets</strong>&nbsp;</h3>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The&nbsp;Group owns the&nbsp;G&nbsp;Hotel in St Julian&#8217;s, a 25-room, fully operational 3-star hotel leased to third-party operators under a long-term agreement&nbsp;generating&nbsp;fixed rental income.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Adjacent to&nbsp;the&nbsp;G&nbsp;Hotel, the&nbsp;Group is also developing&nbsp;Corks Hotel, a 34-room project expected to be&nbsp;operated&nbsp;as a hotel upon completion.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In&nbsp;Gżira, the&nbsp;Group is developing&nbsp;the&nbsp;Gżira&nbsp;Hotel, a 34-room, 3-star hotel currently in advanced construction, with finishing&nbsp;works underway. The project has the potential to expand to 49 rooms, subject to planning&nbsp;approval. Both the&nbsp;Gżira&nbsp;and Corks Hotel projects are intended for long-term leasing&nbsp;to hospitality operators.&nbsp;</p>



<h3 id="h-commercial-assets-nbsp" class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Commercial assets</strong>&nbsp;</h3>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The Group owns two fully leased commercial outlets in&nbsp;Gżira,&nbsp;comprising&nbsp;a restaurant&nbsp;and a&nbsp;retail&nbsp;outlet, both generating&nbsp;recurring rental income under long-term lease agreements.&nbsp;</p>



<h3 id="h-residential-and-mixed-use-developments-nbsp" class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Residential and mixed-use developments</strong>&nbsp;</h3>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The&nbsp;Group is&nbsp;also involved in residential-led developments,&nbsp;including&nbsp;the&nbsp;Sliema Development Site,&nbsp;comprising&nbsp;residential apartments and a commercial unit, currently subject to planning&nbsp;approval and acquisition conditions.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In&nbsp;Msida, the&nbsp;Group holds a partial interest in a completed residential block&nbsp;comprising&nbsp;apartments and a&nbsp;garage.&nbsp;Most&nbsp;units&nbsp;have been&nbsp;pre-sold under preliminary agreements, supporting&nbsp;near-term deleveraging&nbsp;through unit sales.&nbsp;</p>



<div style="margin-top: 50px;">
</div>



<h2 id="h-use-of-nbsp-proceeds-nbsp" class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Use of&nbsp;proceeds</strong>&nbsp;</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">According&nbsp;to the Prospectus&nbsp;and the Final Terms, the net proceeds from the Bond Issue are&nbsp;to be&nbsp;primarily&nbsp;used&nbsp;to finance&nbsp;two property developments in&nbsp;Gżira&nbsp;and Sliema, with the&nbsp;remainder&nbsp;allocated&nbsp;to&nbsp;general corporate funding.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The Bond Issue is therefore intended to support the continued expansion of the&nbsp;Group’s property and hospitality portfolio while strengthening&nbsp;its long-term funding&nbsp;structure.&nbsp;</p>

<h2 id="h-security-nbsp-package-nbsp" class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Security&nbsp;package</strong>&nbsp;</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The Bonds are secured by first-ranking&nbsp;special hypothecs&nbsp;granted over selected hospitality assets forming&nbsp;part of the&nbsp;Group&#8217;s portfolio, principally&nbsp;comprising&nbsp;the Corks Hotel and the Sliema Development Site.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">A security trustee holds this security on behalf of all bondholders, ensuring&nbsp;investors are protected collectively rather than individually. The Bonds also&nbsp;benefit&nbsp;from a&nbsp;guarantee provided by the AGB&nbsp;Group, meaning&nbsp;repayment is supported not only by the issuing&nbsp;company, but by the broader&nbsp;group structure.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The security package is intended to provide bondholders with&nbsp;additional&nbsp;protection through collateral&nbsp;granted over key assets within the&nbsp;Group&#8217;s portfolio.&nbsp;</p>

</div>



<div style="margin-top: 50px;">
</div>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-business-overview-nbsp"><strong>Business overview</strong>&nbsp;</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Challenge Aviation p.l.c.&nbsp;operates&nbsp;as the dedicated financing vehicle of the&nbsp;Bond&nbsp;Group,&nbsp;established&nbsp;to raise capital and advance funding to group entities engaged in the acquisition, ownership, and leasing of&nbsp;aircraft. Through this structure,&nbsp;the Bond&nbsp;Group builds and manages a portfolio of wide‑body cargo&nbsp;aircraft&nbsp;which are leased on a medium‑&nbsp;to long‑term basis to operating airlines within the&nbsp;wider Challenge&nbsp;Group.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The board of Challenge Aviation p.l.c. highlighted that the bond&nbsp;programme&nbsp;represents&nbsp;an important milestone for the expansion of&nbsp;aircraft&nbsp;leasing operations. The Bond Group currently owns 14&nbsp;aircraft,&nbsp;and&nbsp;additional&nbsp;aircraft&nbsp;engines valued at around $400&nbsp;million,&nbsp;with funds raised intended to further support the Group&#8217;s growth strategy in the air cargo sector.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The&nbsp;aircraft&nbsp;leasing platform supports the&nbsp;wider Group’s&nbsp;fully integrated air‑cargo operations, which span cargo airlines, ground handling,&nbsp;logistics, and commercial air freight services across multiple&nbsp;jurisdictions, including Europe, Israel and Malta. Lease income generated under contractual arrangements contributes to the financial sustainability of the&nbsp;aircraft&nbsp;ownership structure and underpins the Group’s core aviation activities.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-use-of-proceeds-nbsp"><strong>Use of proceeds</strong>&nbsp;</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The net proceeds from the Bond&nbsp;Programme&nbsp;are expected to amount to an aggregate of&nbsp;€30 million, before&nbsp;issuing&nbsp;costs. These proceeds will be used to&nbsp;refinance the acquisition of a Boeing B777‑300ER&nbsp;aircraft,&nbsp;which forms part of the Challenge Group’s&nbsp;aircraft&nbsp;fleet supporting its air cargo operations.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">By refinancing this&nbsp;aircraft&nbsp;acquisition, the Group aims to align&nbsp;long‑term&nbsp;funding with&nbsp;long‑term&nbsp;assets, supporting financial stability and efficient capital management. This approach allows the Group to continue investing in its fleet while&nbsp;maintaining&nbsp;a balanced funding structure to support ongoing operations and future growth.&nbsp;</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-business-overview">Business Overview</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">MM Triton Malta Finance p.l.c. is a Malta-incorporated special purpose vehicle set up to raise funding for the MM Triton Group through the issuance of secured bonds. The Issuer itself does not carry out trading activities and is fully owned by MM Triton Holdco Limited, the Group’s UK holding company and guarantor of the bonds. The Group has been established to acquire and own hotel assets in the United Kingdom, with its initial focus being two operational hotels located in Marlow and Reading.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Following completion of the acquisition, the Group’s principal assets will consist of the Crowne Plaza Marlow and the Crowne Plaza Reading. Both hotels operate under the internationally recognised Crowne Plaza brand pursuant to franchise agreements and are managed by a professional hotel operator. The Group’s strategy is centred on owning income-generating hospitality assets in established UK locations, benefiting from brand recognition, operational scale and exposure to the UK corporate and leisure travel markets.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-use-of-proceeds">Use of proceeds</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The bond issue of up to €45 million (with expected net proceeds of approximately €43.9 million after expenses) will be on-lent by the Issuer to the Guarantor to part-finance the acquisition of the two UK hotel properties. Specifically, approximately €26.8 million will be advanced to the Group vehicle acquiring the Marlow hotel entities, while approximately €17.1 million will be advanced to the Group vehicle acquiring the Reading hotel entities.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In essence, the bond proceeds are being used to fund the equity and acquisition financing required to purchase the companies that own and operate the two hotels. The bonds are secured and benefit from a joint and several guarantee from the UK holding company, with security granted over the underlying hotel assets through the structure described in the Prospectus.</p>
