filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on 14 March 2016, the principal risks

2016 and the risks described under “Risk Factors” of Newbelco SA/NV’s Registration Statement on Form

results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. There can be no certainty that the
proposed transactions will be completed on the terms described herein or at all.

The forward-looking statements should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that
are included elsewhere, including the former AB InBev’s most recent Form 20-F, Newbelco SA/NV’s
