All statements other than statements of historical facts are forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect the current views of the management of AB InBev, are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties about AB InBev, and are dependent on many factors, some of which are outside of AB InBev’s control. There are important factors, risks and uncertainties that could cause actual outcomes and results to be materially different, including, among others, the risks relating to the dissolved company Anheuser-Busch InBev SA/NV (the “former AB InBev”) described under Item 3.D of the former AB InBev’s Annual Report on Form 20-F (“Form 20-F”) filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on 14 March 2016, the principal risks described on pages 16 to 17 of SABMiller’s Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2016 and the risks described under “Risk Factors” of Newbelco SA/NV’s Registration Statement on Form F-4, filed with the SEC on 26 August 2016. Other unknown or unpredictable factors could cause actual 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.

developed or acquired by or originally issued to the JV or any of its Subsidiaries and as to which the JV or any of its Subsidiaries had the right to grant this covenant prior to or as of November 11, 2015, or will have the right to grant this covenant prior to or as of the Closing Date, either (A) based upon the activities of a Protected Party in connection with the brewing, distribution or sale of any Malt Beverage for ultimate distribution and sale outside of the JV Territory, in each case only if Miller Parent or any of its Affiliates (other than the JV or any of its Subsidiaries) prior to or as of November 11, 2015 was already engaging in such activity or had demonstrable plans to engage in such activity or (B) where such Intellectual Property is information retained in the unaided memories of employees of Miller Parent and any of its Affiliates who had lawful access to such information prior to the Closing Date (subject to any ongoing obligation of such employee to avoid disclosure of any Buyer Confidential Information); provided that clause (A) of the foregoing covenant shall be subject to the following limitations and restrictions: (i) the foregoing covenant shall only apply to the activities of a Protected Party that are consistent with past historical practices of Miller Parent and such Affiliates in the ordinary course of business that were permitted (or, in the case of planned activities, that would have been permitted) under the terms of applicable Miller-JV Agreements; (ii) such Malt Beverage shall be limited to the recipe, ingredients, and production processes as brewed or demonstrably planned to be brewed by Miller Parent or such applicable Affiliate prior to November 11, 2015 (but including modifications thereof as required by Governmental Authorities, ingredient supply constraints or similar requirements); (iii) the foregoing covenant does not apply to any Malt Beverage or related brewing, distribution or sale activities of a Protected Party to the extent that such Malt Beverage is actually distributed or sold within the JV Territory by a Protected Party or any of its or their respective distributors; (iv) the foregoing covenant does not apply to any use of Intellectual Property in connection with a Malt Beverage if such Intellectual Property is expressly licensed or unlicensed in connection with such Malt Beverage in any Closing Date Agreement; (v) the terms and conditions of each of the Closing Date Agreements shall have priority over any contrary or conflicting terms and conditions in the foregoing covenant with respect to the Malt Beverages and Intellectual Property that is the subject of such Closing Date Agreement; and (vi) the foregoing covenant does not apply to any Intellectual Property that is primarily related to any Miller-Branded Product.

SECTION 5.20. Elimination of Certain Commercial Restrictions .
