To:

The Issuers (as defined in Schedule 1 (Definitions))

together the “Addressees”

Filing of Registration Statement on Form F-3 relating to registration of an indeterminate principal amount of notes of the Issuers and related guarantees by the Luxembourg Obligors (the “Registration”)

We have acted as Luxembourg legal advisers of Anheuser-Busch InBev SA/NV (formerly Anheuser-Busch InBev NV/SA) (“AB InBev”), and the Luxembourg Obligors (as defined in Schedule 2 (Luxembourg Obligors)) in connection with the Registration (the “Transaction”).

1.2 Defined terms and interpretation

Terms defined in the Transaction Documents shall have the same meaning in this Opinion Letter, unless otherwise defined herein (and in particular in paragraph 1.1 (Transaction Documents) and in Schedule 1 (Definitions)).

Headings in this Opinion Letter are for ease of reference only and shall not affect its interpretation.

In this Opinion Letter, Luxembourg legal concepts are expressed in English terms and not in their original French terms. The concepts concerned may not be identical to the concepts described by the same English terms as they exist under the laws of other jurisdictions. This Opinion Letter may therefore only be relied upon under the express condition that any issues of interpretation arising thereunder will be governed by Luxembourg law.

1.3 Legal review

We have not reviewed any documents other than the Transaction Documents and the Corporate Documents, and this Opinion Letter does not purport to address any legal issues that arise in relation to such other documents that may be or come into force between the Parties, even if there is a reference to any such documents in the Transaction Documents or the Corporate Documents or on the impact such documents may have on the opinions expressed in this Opinion Letter.

This Opinion Letter is given, amongst others, on the Base Indenture II to which the Luxembourg Obligors will not be a party on the date of this Opinion Letter. All opinions given in this Opinion Letter shall be read as if the Luxembourg Obligors were a party to such Base Indenture II on the date hereof.

1.4 Applicable law

The opinions given in this Opinion Letter are confined to and given on the basis of Luxembourg law as currently applied by the Luxembourg courts as evidenced in published case-law. We have made no independent investigation of any other laws for the purpose of this Opinion Letter and do not express or imply any opinion in relation to any such laws. In particular, as Luxembourg qualified lawyers we are not qualified nor in a position to assess the meaning and consequences of the terms of the Transaction Documents under the relevant foreign governing or applicable law and we have made no investigation into such laws as a basis for the opinions expressed hereafter and do not express or imply any opinion thereon, including in relation to any implied terms, statutory provisions referred to therein or any other consequences arising from the entry into or performance under such Transaction Documents under such laws. Accordingly, our review of the Transaction Documents has been limited to the terms of such documents as they appear on the face thereof without reference to their respective governing laws or any other applicable law (other than Luxembourg law).

- 2 -

The opinions given in this Opinion Letter are given on the basis that it is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Luxembourg and will be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of Luxembourg.

1.5 Assumptions and reservations

The opinions given in this Opinion Letter are given on the assumptions set out in Schedule 4 (Assumptions) and are subject to the reservations set out in Schedule 5 (Reservations). The opinions given in this Opinion Letter are strictly limited to the matters stated in paragraph 2 (Opinions) and do not extend to any other matters.

2. OPINIONS

We are of the opinion that:

2.1 Corporate existence

2.1.1 Brandbev is a company incorporated and existing in Luxembourg as a société à responsabilité limitée.

2.1.2 Brandbrew is a company incorporated and existing in Luxembourg as a société anonyme.

2.2 Capacity and authorisation

2.2.1 Each Luxembourg Obligor has the capacity and power to enter into each of the Transaction Documents to which it is, or will be, a party and to exercise its rights and to perform its obligations under those Transaction Documents.

2.2.2 All necessary corporate action has been taken to enable the Luxembourg Obligors validly to enter into and to perform their obligations under the Base Indentures and the Guarantees.

2.3 Due execution

Each of the Luxembourg Obligors has duly executed the Base Indenture I.

- 3 -

2.4 Legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations

The obligations expressed to be assumed by the Luxembourg Obligors in the Base Indenture I and the Guarantees thereunder (when such Guarantee has been duly executed by such Luxembourg Obligor) would, if analysed by a Luxembourg court in proceedings commenced in Luxembourg, be recognised by a Luxembourg court as their legal, valid and binding obligations, enforceable in accordance with their terms.

The obligations expressed to be assumed by the Luxembourg Obligors in the Base Indenture II and the Guarantees thereunder (when such Guarantee has been duly executed by such Luxembourg Obligor) to which they will become a party would, if analysed by a Luxembourg court in proceedings commenced in Luxembourg and once the Base Indenture II is entered into by the Luxembourg Obligors, be recognised by a Luxembourg court as their legal, valid and binding obligations, enforceable in accordance with their terms.

2.5 Immunity

In any proceedings taken in Luxembourg in relation to the Transaction Documents, the Luxembourg Obligors will not be entitled to claim general immunity from suit or enforcement.

3. NO JUDICIAL OR ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEEDINGS

According to the Negative Certificates, no Decision opening Judicial or Administrative Proceedings against the Luxembourg Obligors has been registered with the RCS on the date stated therein. The Negative Certificates do not indicate whether a Decision has been taken or a Judicial or Administrative Proceeding has been opened. The registration of a Decision must be requested by the legally determined persons at the latest one month after the Decision has been rendered. As a consequence, a delay exists between the moment where the event rendering the registration with the RCS necessary occurs and the actual registration of the Decision in the RCS. It may furthermore not be excluded that no registration has occurred during the legally prescribed period of one month if no request for registration has been made. As a consequence, the Negative Certificates are not conclusive as to the opening and existence or not of Decisions or Judicial or Administrative Proceedings and should not be relied upon as such. The Negative Certificates do, for the avoidance of doubt, not purport to indicate whether or not a petition or order for any of the Judicial or Administrative Proceedings has been presented or made.

- 4 -

4. SCOPE OF OPINION

We have not been responsible for advising any party to the Transaction other than AB InBev and the Luxembourg Obligors and the delivery of this Opinion Letter to any person other than AB InBev and the Luxembourg Obligors does not evidence an existence of any such advisory duty on our behalf to such person.

We express no opinion as to any taxation matters or transfer pricing matters generally or liability to tax which may arise or be suffered as a result of or in connection with the Transaction Documents or the Transaction or on the impact which any tax laws may have on the opinions expressed in this Opinion Letter.

No opinion (except to the extent expressly opined upon herein) is expressed or implied in relation to the accuracy of any representation or warranty given by or concerning any of the parties to the Transaction Documents or whether such parties or any of them have complied with or will comply with any covenant or undertaking given by them or any obligations binding upon them. No opinion is expressed or implied in this Opinion Letter in relation to any Notes or their respective issuances.

Except in as far as the entry by the Luxembourg Obligors into and the performance by the Luxembourg Obligors of their obligations under the Transaction Documents is concerned, we express no opinion on any applicable licensing or similar requirements.

We express no opinion on the applicability of or compliance with the Regulation (EU) No. 648/2012 on OTC derivatives, central counterparties and trade repositories (the “EMIR Regulation”), of Regulation (EU) No. 909/2014 on improving securities settlement in the European Union and on central securities depositories (the “CSD Regulation”), of Regulation (EU) No. 2015/2365 on transparency of securities financing transactions and of reuse (“SFTR Regulation”) or any obligations arising for the parties pursuant to each of the EMIR Regulation and the CSD Regulation and the SFTR Regulation, each as amended as well as any delegated acts or implementing regulations.

We express no opinion with respect to any data protection matters relevant to or referred to in the Transaction Documents.

This Opinion Letter does not contain any undertaking to update it or to inform the Addressees of any changes in the laws of Luxembourg or any other laws which would affect the content thereof in any manner.

- 5 -

5. ADDRESSEES AND PURPOSE

SCHEDULE 5

RESERVATIONS

The opinions expressed in this Opinion Letter are subject to the following reservations.

1. LIMITATIONS ARISING FROM INSOLVENCY LAW

(a) The rights and obligations of the Parties under the Transaction Documents may be limited and the opinions expressed in this Opinion Letter may be affected by general principles and specific provisions of bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganisation, resolution, administration, reconstruction or other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally.

(b) Any power of attorney and mandate, as well as any other agency provisions granted and all appointments of agents made by the Luxembourg Obligors (including any appointments made by way of security), explicitly or by implication, will terminate by law and without notice upon the Luxembourg Obligors’ bankruptcy (faillite) or any similar procedure.

2. ENFORCEABILITY OF CLAIMS

(a) The rights and obligations of the Parties under the Transaction Documents may be limited by general principles of criminal law, including but not limited to criminal freezing orders.

(b) Periods of grace for the performance of its obligations may be granted by the courts to a debtor who has acted in good faith.

(d) Any representation, warranty or undertaking given by the Luxembourg Obligors is only binding upon it and is not binding upon its shareholders.

(e) Specific creditors benefit from privileged rights by virtue of Luxembourg law and may take precedence over the rights of other secured or unsecured creditors.

(g) Whilst, in the event of any proceedings being brought in a Luxembourg court in respect of a monetary obligation expressed to be payable in a currency other than Euro, a Luxembourg court would have power to give judgment expressed as an order to pay a currency other than Euro, enforcement of the judgment against any Party in Luxembourg would be available only in Euro and for such purposes all claims or debts would be converted into Euro.

(h) A contractual provision conferring or imposing a remedy, an obligation or penalty consequent upon default or breach may not be fully enforceable if it were construed by a Luxembourg court as constituting an excessive pecuniary remedy.

(i) Limitation of liability clauses will not be enforceable in case of willful default or gross negligence, or where the obligation that has been improperly performed was the central obligation (obligation essentielle) of the person protected by the limitation of liability clause.

(j) Insofar as the laws of Luxembourg are concerned, provisions in the Transaction Documents relating to the transfer or assignment of rights and obligations may require the execution of further documentation in order to be fully effective, as well as to ensure the transfer of any security interests attaching to the rights or obligations to be transferred or assigned.

(k) The enforcement of the Transaction Documents and the rights and obligations of the Parties will be subject to the general statutory principles of Luxembourg law; remedies such as specific performance, the issue of an injunction or the termination for breach of contract are discretionary. Notwithstanding any agreement purporting to confer the availability of any remedy, such remedy may not be available where damages instead of specific performance or specific performance instead of termination for breach of contract are considered by the court to be an adequate alternative remedy. The enforcement of rights and obligations in an action before the Luxembourg courts is subject to Luxembourg rules of civil and commercial procedure.

(l) Provisions of the Transaction Documents providing for interest being payable in specified circumstances on due and payable interest may not be enforceable against the Luxembourg Obligors before a Luxembourg court even if they are valid under the respective governing law.

(m) Claims may become barred under the statute of limitations or may be or become subject to defences of set-off or counterclaim.

- 19 -

(n) We express no opinion on the validity or enforceability of waivers granted for future rights or claims.

(o) Provisions according to which the Trustee is authorised to sue on behalf of the Luxembourg Obligors may not be enforceable.

(p) Any power of attorney (including if granted by way of security) expressed to be irrevocable and granted by or on behalf of a Luxembourg Obligor may as a matter of Luxembourg law (which a court may also apply to powers granted by or on behalf of a Luxembourg Obligor under foreign law), be subject to revocation or termination by or on behalf of the grantor despite its being expressed to be irrevocable, which causes the withdrawal of all powers to act on behalf of the grantor of the power of attorney.

(q) The right of a Party to recover legal counsel’s fees or other fees relating to the exercise or defence of its rights may be subject to limitations or may not be enforceable in accordance with its terms before a Luxembourg court or in Luxembourg court or enforcement proceedings.

(r) An agreement may not create rights or obligations for third parties who are not a party to such agreement.

3. TAXATION

The registration of the Transaction Documents is required if such Transaction Documents are either (i) attached as an annex to an act (annexés à un acte) that itself is subject to mandatory registration or (ii) deposited in the minutes of a notary (déposés au rang des minutes d’un notaire). In such cases, as well as in case of a voluntary registration, the Transaction Documents will be subject to registration duties payable by the party registering, or being ordered to register, the Transaction Documents. Depending on the nature of the Transaction Documents, such registration duties would be ad valorem (such as for instance a registration duty of 0.24% calculated on the amounts mentioned in those agreements) or fixed (such as for instance a registration duty of 12€ for a pledge).

4. CORPORATE MATTERS

(a) A company falling within the scope of Article 1200-1 of the Law on Commercial Companies, i.e. not respecting any provision of Luxembourg criminal law or which seriously contravenes any provision of the Luxembourg commercial code or any other Luxembourg law applicable to commercial companies, may be put into (i) judicial dissolution and liquidation or (ii) if such company has no assets and no employees, administrative dissolution without liquidation (dissolution administrative sans liquidation), each time upon the application of the public prosecutor.

(b) The Constitutional Documents (as well as any other documents relating to the Luxembourg Obligors the publication of which is required by law) will only be enforceable against third parties after they have been published in the RESA, except where such third parties have knowledge thereof, whereas however third parties may rely thereon prior to such publication. For the 15 days following the publication, such documents would not be enforceable against third parties who prove that it was impossible for them to have knowledge thereof.

(c) Any provision in any of the Transaction Documents which constitutes, or purports to constitute, a restriction on the choice of auditor of the Luxembourg Obligors by its shareholders or members may contravene the requirements of Directive 2006/43/EC and Regulation 537/2014 and may therefore become null and void.

(d) An electronic signature complying with the requirements of article 1322-1 of the Luxembourg Civil Code (i.e. consisting in a set of data that is inseparably associated to the document and guarantees its integrity and that identifies the signatory and proves the signatory’s consent to the content of the document) or constituting a qualified electronic signature under the eIDAS Regulation has an equivalent effect to a handwritten signature and can be used for the execution of agreements such as the Base Indenture II. An electronic signature which does not comply with these requirements can also be used for the execution of agreements such as the Base Indenture II but will not have all the legal effects of a hand-written signature. In case of a dispute as to its effects, it will however not be dismissed in court merely on the grounds that it is an electronic signature. The document signed with such an electronic signature will be admissible in evidence by a Luxembourg court and the electronic signature will constitute a means to prove the consent of the person purported to have signed.

5. GOVERNING LAW

(a) The Luxembourg courts would not apply a chosen foreign law if:

(i) the choice was not made bona fide, or

(ii) the foreign law was not pleaded and proved, or

(iii) if pleaded and proved, such foreign law would be contrary to the mandatory rules of Luxembourg law or manifestly incompatible with Luxembourg public policy or public order.

(b) A Luxembourg court may refuse to apply the chosen governing law in the following cases:

(i) where all other elements relevant to the situation at the time that the Transaction Documents were entered into are located in a country other than the country of the chosen governing law, to the extent the Parties’ choice of governing law affects the application of the provisions of the law of that other country which cannot be derogated from by agreement, which the court may then apply;

(ii) where all other elements relevant to the situation at the time that the Transaction Documents were entered into are located in one or more Member States of the European Union and where the chosen law is not the one of a Member State, it may apply the provisions of EU law, where appropriate as implemented in Luxembourg, which cannot be derogated from by agreement;

(iii) if the overriding mandatory provisions (lois de police) of the law of the country where the obligations arising out of the Transaction Documents have to be or have been performed, render the performance of the Transaction Documents unlawful in such country, in which case it may apply such overriding mandatory provisions taking into account (in deciding such application) the nature and object of such laws, as well as the consequences of its application or non-application;

(iv) regarding the means of enforcement and measures to be taken by a creditor in case of a default in performance, it may apply the law of the country in which performance is taking place; or

- 22 -

(v) if a Party is subject to insolvency proceedings, in which case it would apply the insolvency laws of the jurisdiction in which such insolvency proceedings have been regularly opened to the effects of such insolvency except to the extent any exceptions are established by Regulation 2015/848.

(c) We express no opinion on any choice of law provisions in the Transaction Documents relating to contractual obligations that do not fall within the scope of the Rome I Regulation and to non-contractual obligations that do not fall within the scope of the Rome II Regulation.

(d) The determination of the governing law and the recognition of trusts by Luxembourg courts (whether or not one or more elements of the trust relationship or trust assets are located in Luxembourg) will be made in accordance with the Convention dated 1 July 1985 on the law applicable to trusts and their recognition (ratified by a law dated 27 July 2003 on trusts and fiduciary contracts) (the “Hague Trusts Convention”), to the extent the relevant trust comes within the scope thereof. The law chosen by the parties will in principle be recognised as governing law, and the effects of the trust (in particular the segregation of trust assets) will be recognised in accordance with the Hague Trusts Convention, subject to the exceptions established therein, including the non-recognition of the chosen governing law if the situation has a closer link with another jurisdiction which does not recognise trusts, the application of mandatory laws of Luxembourg and other jurisdictions in the matters referred to in Article 15 of the Hague Trusts Convention and the general exception of public order. In relation to the provision of any Transaction Document providing that a Luxembourg Obligor shall hold on trust certain assets received, the non-recognition of the trust under Luxembourg law would cause the purported beneficiaries to only have an unsecured claim against the relevant Luxembourg Obligor, which claim will rank pari passu with the claims of other unsecured creditors of the relevant Luxembourg Obligor.

6. JURISDICTION

(a) A Luxembourg court may stay proceedings if concurrent proceedings are being brought elsewhere.

(b) Designation of jurisdiction of courts in the interest of one Party or one group of Parties only will not prevent those Parties from bringing actions in any other court of competent jurisdiction or concurrently in more than one jurisdiction.

- 23 -

(c) The president of a competent court in Luxembourg, in any matter in which the plaintiff seeks provisional measures in summary proceedings (référé) or a permission to levy a prejudgment attachment (autorisation de saisie-arrêt conservatoire), may assume jurisdiction, on the basis of the general provisions of Luxembourg law, in connection with assets located in Luxembourg notwithstanding the submission to the jurisdiction of the courts of other countries, and such action would be governed by Luxembourg law.

(d) Jurisdiction clauses would not be enforceable in or binding on a Luxembourg court in relation to actions brought for non-contractual claims.

7. OTHER MATTERS

(a) A contractual provision allowing the service of process against the Luxembourg Obligors or any other third party appointed to such effect could be overridden by Luxembourg statutory provisions allowing the valid service of process against the Luxembourg Obligors in accordance with applicable laws at their registered office. A provision allowing any other party to appoint a replacement process agent instead of the Luxembourg Obligors would most likely not be enforceable in or the effects thereof recognised by a Luxembourg court.

(b) Any power of attorney (including if granted by way of security) expressed to be irrevocable and granted by or on behalf of a Luxembourg Obligor may as a matter of Luxembourg law (which a court may also apply to powers granted by or on behalf of a Luxembourg Obligor under foreign law), be subject to revocation or termination by or on behalf of the grantor despite its being expressed to be irrevocable, which causes the withdrawal of all powers to act on behalf of the grantor of the power of attorney.

(c) The admissibility as evidence of the Transaction Documents before a Luxembourg court or public authority to which the Transaction Documents are produced will require that the Transaction Documents be accompanied by a complete or partial translation into French or German and a Luxembourg court may always require that the parties produce the original of a Transaction Document on the basis of which a claim is made.

(d) A discretion established in favour of one Party by any of the Transaction Documents will have to be exercised in a reasonable manner.

- 24 -

(e) With respect to provisions under which determination of circumstances or certification by any Party is stated or implied to be conclusive and binding upon each of the Luxembourg Obligors, a Luxembourg court would be authorised to examine whether such determination occurred in good faith and may nevertheless request a Party to provide further evidence.

(f) All rights and obligations arising under the Transaction Documents involving (i) the government of any country which is currently the subject of United Nations, the European Union or any other applicable sanctions (an “Affected Country”), (ii) any person or body resident in, incorporated in or constituted under the laws of any Affected Country, (iii) any person or body controlled by any of the foregoing, (iv) any person or body exercising public functions in any Affected Country or (v) any person or body being itself subject of United Nations, the European Union or any other applicable sanctions may be subject to restrictions pursuant to such sanctions as implemented in Luxembourg law or applicable or applied in Luxembourg. We express no opinion on any provision which has the effect of contravening the Blocking Regulation or any consequences thereof.

(g) A severability clause may be ineffective if a Luxembourg court considers that the illegal, invalid or unenforceable clause was a substantive or material clause.
