Potential sale of Stansted In July 2011, the UK Competition Commission confirmed its requirement for Stansted sale BAA has challenged the Commission s decision Result of court hearing expected in Q1 2012 Any possible future sale of Stansted unlikely to have a material impact on credit Stansted represents only around 10% of Adjusted EBITDA and RAB 15

Expected evolution of capital structure and financial ratios Expected evolution of gearing ratios Class A (BAA (SP)): close to 70% trigger level Class B (BAA (SP)): meaningful buffer to 85% trigger level buffer likely to be around 5% of RAB BAA (SH): meaningful buffer to 90% covenant level buffer likely to be around 5% of RAB Continuing reduction in net debt/ebitda multiples 2010 actual: Class A: 9.1x; Class B: 10.3x; BAA (SH): 10.8x 2011 forecast: Class A: 8.3x; Class B: 9.2x; BAA (SH): 9.7x 2012 forecast: Class A: 7.8x; Class B: 9.1x; BAA (SH): 9.5x headline tariff increases of RPI + 7.5% to 2014 including 12.7% in April 2012 next regulatory settlement should adjust for current lower than forecast traffic 19

A closer look at the BAA (SH) financing Debt service (both interest and principal) funded through distributions from BAA (SP) 400 million liquidity buffer for BAA (SH) creditors distribution lock-up at BAA (SH) when BAA (SP) gearing exceeds 82% compared to lock-up at BAA (SP) when gearing exceeds 85% Over 1 billion current headroom below BAA (SP) gearing lock-up level BAA (SP) cannot agree tighter distribution restrictions without the consent of BAA (SH) creditors BAA (SH) s previous 1.6 billion debt comfortably serviced through worst downturn since dawn of civil aviation industry Pledge over BAA (SP) shares Issuer acts solely as holding company for Heathrow and Stansted Cross-acceleration with BAA (SP) debt Benefit of extensive suite of BAA (SP) covenants 20

New BAA (SH) loan facility New 50 million 8 year loan facility signed in December 2011 Facility arranged and largely provided by AMP Capital Ability to increase facility size up to 150 million Institutional loan market appears to currently provide attractive financing relative to bond market at BB ratings level Intend to maintain mix of bond and institutional loan funding at BAA (SH) level of capital structure with spread of maturities 21

Investment highlights Stability and resilience of critical UK transport infrastructure Continued improvement in operational performance Resilient and growing cash flow post debt service underpinned by regulatory tariff profile Opportunity to invest in a resilient infrastructure business that owns globally strategic airport assets 22
