Notes Offering

 

On June 4, 2024, Genpact Luxembourg S.à r.l. (“Genpact Luxembourg”) and Genpact USA, Inc. (“Genpact USA”), indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of Genpact Limited (“Genpact”), completed their previously announced underwritten public offering (the “Notes Offering”) of $400 million aggregate principal amount of their 6.000% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”). The 2029 Notes are Genpact Luxembourg’s and Genpact USA’s senior unsecured indebtedness and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by Genpact. The 2029 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated as of March 26, 2021 (the “Base Indenture”) among Genpact Luxembourg, Genpact USA, Genpact and Computershare Trust Company, National Association (as successor to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association), as trustee (the “Trustee”), and a second supplemental indenture dated as of June 4, 2024 (the “Second Supplemental Indenture”).

 

The 2029 Notes have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-265204), as supplemented by the prospectus supplement dated May 30, 2024, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act.

 

In connection with the issuance of the 2029 Notes, Genpact, Genpact Luxembourg and Genpact USA entered into an Underwriting Agreement dated as of May 30, 2024 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), among Genpact Luxembourg and Genpact USA, as co-issuers, Genpact, as guarantor, and the representatives of the several underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”), pursuant to which Genpact Luxembourg and Genpact USA agreed to issue and sell the 2029 Notes to the Underwriters. For a complete description of the terms and conditions of the Underwriting Agreement, please refer to the Underwriting Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

The 2029 Notes will mature on June 4, 2029. Interest on the 2029 Notes accrues at the rate of 6.000% per annum and is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 4 and December 4 of each year, commencing on December 4, 2024.

 

The 2029 Notes and the related guarantee are general unsecured obligations of Genpact Luxembourg, Genpact USA and Genpact, as applicable, and will be pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future senior indebtedness of such entities, will be effectively subordinated to all future secured indebtedness of such entities to the extent of the value of the assets securing that indebtedness and will be senior in right of payment to all future subordinated indebtedness of such entities. The 2029 Notes will be structurally subordinated to all indebtedness and other liabilities of subsidiaries of Genpact (other than Genpact Luxembourg and Genpact USA) that do not guarantee the 2029 Notes, including the liabilities of certain subsidiaries pursuant to Genpact’s senior credit facility.

 

Genpact Luxembourg and Genpact USA may redeem some or all of the 2029 Notes prior to May 4, 2029 at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date, plus an applicable “make-whole” premium. Genpact Luxembourg and Genpact USA may redeem some or all of the 2029 Notes on or after May 4, 2029 at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date.

 

The 2029 Notes are subject to certain customary covenants, including limitations on the ability of Genpact and certain of its subsidiaries, including Genpact Luxembourg and Genpact USA, with significant exceptions, (i) to incur debt secured by liens; (ii) to engage in certain sale and leaseback transactions; and (iii) to consolidate, merge, convey or transfer their assets substantially as an entirety. In addition, pursuant to a customary change of control covenant, upon a change of control repurchase event, Genpact Luxembourg and Genpact USA will be required to make an offer to repurchase the 2029 Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of such 2029 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of repurchase.

 

Genpact intends to use the net proceeds from the Notes Offering for general corporate purposes, which may include repaying or redeeming Genpact Luxembourg’s outstanding 3.375% senior notes due 2024 at or prior to their maturity on December 1, 2024. 

The foregoing descriptions of the Base Indenture, the Second Supplemental Indenture and the 2029 Notes are qualified in their entirety by reference to the actual terms of the respective documents. Copies of the Underwriting Agreement, the Base Indenture, the Second Supplemental Indenture and the form of the 2029 Notes are attached as Exhibits 1.1, 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 hereto, respectively, and each is incorporated by reference herein.

If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the Par Call Date, the Issuers shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Issuers shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places. 

“Trustee” has the meaning provided in the Preamble.

(b)           Prior to the Par Call Date, the Issuers may redeem the Notes at their option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of:

 

(i)         (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes being redeemed discounted to the redemption date (assuming the Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate, plus 25 basis points less (b) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and

 

(ii)        100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed,

The Issuers’ actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

If any Redemption Date is not a Business Day, the Issuers will pay the redemption price on the next Business Day without any interest or other payment due to the delay. 

(e)           In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Notes in certificated form for redemption will be made by lot. No Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any Note in certificated form is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Note will state the portion of the principal amount of the Note to be redeemed. A new Note in certificated form in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Note will be issued in the name of the holder of the Note upon surrender for cancellation of the original Note in certificated form. For so long as the Notes are held by DTC (or another depositary), the selection of the Notes for redemption shall be made pro rata, by lot, or by such other method as the Trustee deems appropriate and fair in accordance with the policies and procedures of the depositary.

 

(f)            In the case of any redemption, the Security Registrar will not be required to register the transfer or exchange of any Note:

 

(i)         during a period beginning 15 Business Days before the day of mailing, electronic delivery or other transmission of the relevant notice of redemption and ending on the close of business on that day of mailing, electronic delivery or other transmission; or

 

(ii)        if the Issuers have called the Note for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

 

(g)           Unless the Issuers default in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

 

Section 3.02           Redemption for Tax Reasons.

 

(a)           The Issuers may redeem the Notes in whole, but not in part, at any time upon giving not less than 10 nor more than 30 days’ prior notice to the Holders of the Notes (which notice will be irrevocable) at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date fixed for redemption (a “Tax Redemption Date”) (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date) and all Additional Amounts, if any, then due and which will become due on the Tax Redemption Date as a result of the redemption or otherwise, if the Issuers determine in good faith that, as a result of:

 

(1)           any change in, or amendment to, the law or treaties (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction affecting taxation; or

 

(2)           any amendment to, or change in an official application, administration or written interpretation of such laws, treaties, regulations or rulings (including by reason of a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction or a change in published administrative practice) (each of the foregoing in clauses (1) and (2), a “Change in Tax Law”), a Payor is, or on the next Interest Payment Date would be, required to pay Additional Amounts with respect to the Notes and such obligation cannot be avoided by taking reasonable measures available to the Payor (including making payment through a paying agent located in another jurisdiction and, in the case of Parent, only if the payment giving rise to such requirement cannot be made by the Issuers without the obligation to pay Additional Amounts). Such Change in Tax Law must be publicly announced and become effective on or after the date of issuance of the Notes (or if the applicable Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction became a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction on a date after the date of issuance of the Notes, such later date). The foregoing provisions shall apply mutatis mutandis to any successor Person, after such successor Person becomes a party to the Base Indenture and this Second Supplemental Indenture, with respect to a Change in Tax Law occurring after the time such successor Person becomes a party to the Base Indenture and this Second Supplemental Indenture.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such notice of redemption will be given earlier than 60 days prior to the earliest date on which the Payor would be obligated to make such payment of Additional Amounts. Prior to the publication or mailing of any notice of redemption of Notes pursuant to the foregoing, the Payor will deliver to the Trustee (a) an Officer’s Certificate stating that it is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to its right to so redeem have been satisfied and that the obligation to pay Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by the Payor taking reasonable measures available to it and (b) a written opinion of an independent tax counsel of recognized standing qualified under the laws of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction and reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) to the effect that the Payor has been or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of a Change in Tax Law. The Trustee will accept and shall be entitled to rely conclusively on such Officer’s Certificate and opinion as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent described above, without further inquiry, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the Holders. 

ARTICLE Four
Additional Covenants

 

Section 4.01           Purchase of Notes upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event.

 

(a)           If a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurs, unless the Issuers have exercised their right to redeem the Notes as set forth in Article Three of this Second Supplemental Indenture, the Issuers will make an offer to each Holder of Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes repurchased to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).

 

Within 30 days following any Change of Control Repurchase Event or, at the Issuers’ option, prior to any Change of Control, but after the public announcement of the transaction or event that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control, the Issuers will mail a notice to each Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or event that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control Repurchase Event and offering to repurchase the Notes on the payment date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed. The notice may, if mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the Change of Control Repurchase Event occurring on or prior to the payment date specified in the notice.

 

(b)           On the Change of Control Repurchase Event payment date, the Issuers shall, to the extent lawful:

 

(i)         accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes (in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) properly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Issuers’ offer;

 

(ii)        deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn; and

 

(iii)       deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted, together with an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Issuers.

 

The Paying Agent will promptly mail or electronically deliver to each Holder of Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn the purchase price for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any such Notes surrendered; provided, that each new Note will be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

 

(c)           The Issuers will not be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Issuers and such third party purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. 

(d)           If Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes tender and do not withdraw such Notes in a repurchase offer and the Issuers, or any third party making a repurchase offer in lieu of the Issuers, purchase all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuers or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 30 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to the repurchase offer described above, to redeem all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Redemption Date.

 

(e)           Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in Section 902 of the Base Indenture, the provisions of this Second Supplemental Indenture relating to the Issuers’ obligation to make an offer to repurchase the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Repurchase Event may be waived or modified prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control Repurchase Event with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and affected by such waiver or modification.

 

(f)            The Issuers will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder, to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Repurchase Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.01, the Issuers will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached their obligations under this Section 4.01 by virtue of their compliance with such securities laws or regulations.

Section 5.01           Additional Events of Default.

 

Additional Events of Default. In addition to the Events of Default set forth in Section 501 of the Base Indenture, an “Event of Default” with respect to the Notes occurs if:

 

(a)           the Issuers fail to make the required offer to purchase Notes following a Change of Control Repurchase Event, if that failure continues for 60 days after notice is provided as set forth in clause (4) of Section 501 of the Base Indenture; or

 

(b)           the Guarantee shall be held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or shall cease for any reason to be in full force and effect (except as contemplated by the terms thereof), or Parent, or any person acting on its behalf, shall deny or disaffirm in writing the Guarantee.

BY ITS ACQUISITION OF THIS SECURITY OR ANY INTEREST HEREIN, THE HOLDER THEREOF WILL BE DEEMED TO HAVE REPRESENTED AND WARRANTED THAT EITHER (1) NO PORTION OF THE ASSETS USED BY SUCH HOLDER TO ACQUIRE OR HOLD THIS SECURITY OR ANY INTEREST HEREIN CONSTITUTES THE ASSETS OF AN EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN THAT IS SUBJECT TO TITLE I OF THE U.S. EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT INCOME SECURITY ACT OF 1974, AS AMENDED (“ERISA”), OF A PLAN, INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNT OR OTHER ARRANGEMENT THAT IS SUBJECT TO SECTION 4975 OF THE U.S. INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, AS AMENDED (THE “CODE”) OR PROVISIONS UNDER ANY OTHER FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, NON-U.S. OR OTHER LAWS OR REGULATIONS THAT ARE SIMILAR TO SUCH PROVISIONS OF ERISA OR THE CODE (“SIMILAR LAWS”), OR OF AN ENTITY WHOSE UNDERLYING ASSETS ARE CONSIDERED TO INCLUDE “PLAN ASSETS” OF ANY SUCH PLAN, ACCOUNT OR ARRANGEMENT, OR (2) THE ACQUISITION AND HOLDING OF THIS SECURITY OR ANY INTEREST HEREIN WILL NOT CONSTITUTE A NON-EXEMPT PROHIBITED TRANSACTION UNDER SECTION 406 OF ERISA OR SECTION 4975 OF THE CODE OR A SIMILAR VIOLATION UNDER ANY APPLICABLE SIMILAR LAWS. 

Genpact Luxembourg S.à r.l., a private limited liability company (société à responsabilité limitée) organized under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg registered with the Luxembourg trade and company register under number B131.149, and Genpact USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation (each an “Issuer” and collectively, the “Issuers,” which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to , or registered assigns, the principal sum of Dollars ($ ) or such other amount indicated on the Schedule of Exchange of Global Notes attached hereto on June 4, 2029 (if such date is not a Business Day, payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest for the Securities will be paid on the next Business Day); provided, however, that no interest on that payment will accrue from and after June 4, 2029, and to pay interest thereon from June 4, 2024, or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semi-annually on June 4 and December 4 in each year, commencing December 4, 2024, at the rate of 6.000% per annum, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the May 26 or November 25 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date.

If any Interest Payment Date for the Securities is not a Business Day, then payment of interest shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date such payment was due, and no interest on such payment shall accrue for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date to the date of such payment on the next succeeding Business Day.

 

So long as all of the Securities of this series are represented by Global Securities, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on this Global Security shall be paid in same day funds to the Depositary, or to such name or entity as is requested by an authorized representative of the Depositary.

Reverse of Security

 

GENPACT LUXEMBOURG S.À R.L.

 

GENPACT USA, INC.

 

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Issuers (the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of March 26, 2021 (the “Base Indenture”), among the Issuers, Genpact Limited, a Bermuda exempted company (“Parent”), and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as successor to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Trustee (the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), as supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of June 4, 2024 (the “Second Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), among the Issuers, Parent and the Trustee, and reference is hereby made to the Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Issuers, Parent, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof initially in aggregate principal amount of $400,000,000.

 

At the Issuers’ option, the Securities may be redeemed, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, on at least 10 days’ but no more than 60 days’ prior written notice mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the depositary’s procedures) to each Holder of the Securities to be redeemed.

 

Prior to May 4, 2029 (one month prior to their maturity date) (the “Par Call Date”), the Issuers may redeem the Securities at their option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of:

 

(i)             (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Securities being redeemed discounted to the redemption date (assuming the Securities matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined below), plus 25 basis points less (b) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and

 

(ii)            100% of the principal amount of the Securities being redeemed,

 

plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Securities being redeemed to the redemption date.

 

The Issuers’ actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

 

On or after the Par Call Date, the Issuers may redeem the Securities, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

 

If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on the Securities (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the Redemption Date is deposited with the Trustee or Paying Agent on or before the Redemption Date and certain other conditions are satisfied, then on and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Securities (or such portion thereof) called for redemption and such Securities will cease to be outstanding. If any Redemption Date is not a Business Day, the Issuers will pay the redemption price on the next Business Day without any interest or other payment due to the delay.

 

In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Securities in certificated form for redemption will be made by lot. No Securities of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any Security in certificated form is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Security will state the portion of the principal amount of the Security to be redeemed. A new Security in certificated form in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Security will be issued in the name of the Holder of the Security upon surrender for cancellation of the original Security in certificated form. For so long as the  (or another depositary), the selection of the Securities for redemption shall be made pro rata, by lot, or by such other method as the Trustee deems appropriate and fair in accordance with the policies and procedures of the depositary. 

In the case of any redemption, the Security Registrar will not be required to register the transfer or exchange of any Security:

 

(i)             during a period beginning 15 Business Days before the day of mailing, electronic delivery or other transmission of the relevant notice of redemption and ending on the close of business on that day of mailing, electronic delivery or other transmission; or

 

(ii)            if the Issuers have called the Security for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part.

 

The Issuers may redeem the Securities in whole, but not in part, at any time upon giving not less than 10 nor more than 30 days’ prior notice to the Holders of the Securities (which notice will be irrevocable) at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date fixed for redemption (a “Tax Redemption Date”) (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date) and all Additional Amounts, if any, then due and which will become due on the Tax Redemption Date as a result of the redemption or otherwise, if the Issuers determine in good faith that, as a result of:

 

(1)           any change in, or amendment to, the law or treaties (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction affecting taxation; or

 

(2)           any amendment to, or change in an official application, administration or written interpretation of such laws, treaties, regulations or rulings (including by reason of a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction or a change in published administrative practice) (each of the foregoing in clauses (1) and (2), a “Change in Tax Law”), a Payor is, or on the next Interest Payment Date would be, required to pay Additional Amounts with respect to the Securities and such obligation cannot be avoided by taking reasonable measures available to the Payor (including making payment through a paying agent located in another jurisdiction and, in the case of Parent, only if the payment giving rise to such requirement cannot be made by the Issuers without the obligation to pay Additional Amounts). Such Change in Tax Law must be publicly announced and become effective on or after the date of issuance of the Securities (or if the applicable Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction became a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction on a date after the date of issuance of the Securities, such later date). The foregoing provisions shall apply mutatis mutandis to any successor Person, after such successor Person becomes a party to the Indenture, with respect to a Change in Tax Law occurring after the time such successor Person becomes a party to the Indenture.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such notice of redemption will be given earlier than 60 days prior to the earliest date on which the Payor would be obligated to make such payment of Additional Amounts. Prior to the publication or mailing of any notice of redemption of Securities pursuant to the foregoing, the Payor will deliver to the Trustee (a) an Officer’s Certificate stating that it is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to its right to so redeem have been satisfied and that the obligation to pay Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by the Payor taking reasonable measures available to it and (b) a written opinion of an independent tax counsel of recognized standing qualified under the laws of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction and reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) to the effect that the Payor has been or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of a Change in Tax Law. The Trustee will accept and shall be entitled to rely conclusively on such Officer’s Certificate and opinion as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent described above, without further inquiry, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the Holders.

 

Unless the Issuers default in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date interest will cease to accrue on the Securities or portions thereof called for redemption. 

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by the Issuers in accordance with the following two paragraphs.

 

The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Issuers after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third business day preceding the redemption date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily) — H.15” (or any successor designation or publication) (“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities–Treasury constant maturities–Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading) (“H.15 TCM”). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Issuers shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the redemption date to the Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields – one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life – and shall interpolate to the Par Call Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the redemption date.

 

If on the third business day preceding the redemption date H.15 TCM is no longer published, the Issuers shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second business day preceding such redemption date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the Par Call Date, the Issuers shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Issuers shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

 

The Indenture contains provisions, which will apply to the Securities, for defeasance and covenant defeasance and Events of Default with respect to this Security, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture.

 

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

 

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuers and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Issuers and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of more than 50% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected, voting as a single class. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Issuers with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration or transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security. 

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or Trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given a Responsible Officer of the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Securities of this series at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.

 

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuers, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

 

The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

 

This Security shall be deemed to be a contract made under the laws of the State of New York, and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of said State, without regard to conflict of laws principles thereof.

 

All terms used in this Security that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

 

Purchase of Securities upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event

 

If a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurs, unless the Issuers have exercised their right to redeem the Securities, the Issuers will make an offer to each Holder of Securities to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Securities at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities repurchased to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).

 

Within 30 days following any Change of Control Repurchase Event or, at the Issuers’ option, prior to any Change of Control, but after the public announcement of the transaction or event that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control, the Issuers will mail a notice to each Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or event that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control Repurchase Event and offering to repurchase the Securities on the payment date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed. The notice may, if mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the Change of Control Repurchase Event occurring on or prior to the payment date specified in the notice.

 

On the Change of Control Repurchase Event payment date, the Issuers shall, to the extent lawful:

 

(i)            accept for payment all Securities or portions of Securities (in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) properly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Issuers’ offer;

 

(ii)           deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price in respect of all Securities or portions of Securities properly tendered and not withdrawn; and 

(iii)          deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Securities properly accepted, together with an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Securities or portions of Securities being purchased by the Issuers.

 

The Paying Agent will promptly mail or electronically deliver to each Holder of Securities properly tendered and not withdrawn the purchase price for such Securities, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new Security equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any such Securities surrendered; provided, that each new Security will be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

 

The Issuers will not be required to make an offer to repurchase the Securities upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Issuers and such third party purchases all Securities properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

 

If Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities tender and do not withdraw such Securities in a repurchase offer and the Issuers, or any third party making a repurchase offer in lieu of the Issuers, purchase all of the Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuers or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 30 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to the repurchase offer described above, to redeem all Securities that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Redemption Date.

 

Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in the Base Indenture, the provisions of this Security relating to the Issuers’ obligation to make an offer to repurchase the Securities as a result of a Change of Control Repurchase Event may be waived or modified prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control Repurchase Event with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding and affected by such waiver or modification.

 

The Issuers will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder, to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Securities as a result of a Change of Control Repurchase Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this provision, the Issuers will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached their obligations under this provision by virtue of its compliance with such securities laws or regulations.

 

“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following:

 

(1)           the direct or indirect sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of Parent and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to any “person” or “group” (as those terms are used for purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), other than either of the Issuers or one of Parent’s other wholly owned Subsidiaries; (2) the consummation of any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” or “group” (as those terms are used for purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the then outstanding shares of Parent’s Voting Stock, measured by voting power rather than number of shares; (3) Parent ceases to own, directly or indirectly, 100% of the issued and outstanding Voting Stock of either Issuer; or (4) the adoption by the holders of Parent’s Voting Stock of a plan providing for Parent’s liquidation or dissolution.

 

For purposes of the foregoing discussion of the purchase of Securities upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event, the following definitions are applicable:

 

“Below Investment Grade Rating Event” means the rating on the Securities is lowered by each of the Rating Agencies, and the Securities are rated below Investment Grade by each of the Rating Agencies, within 60 days from the earlier of (1) the date of the public notice of an arrangement that could result in a Change of Control and (2) the occurrence of a Change of Control (which period shall be extended so long as the rating of the Securities is under publicly announced consideration for possible downgrade by any of the Rating Agencies). 

“Change of Control Repurchase Event” means the occurrence of both a Change of Control and a Below Investment Grade Rating Event.

 

“Investment Grade” means a rating of Baa3 or better by Moody’s (or its equivalent under any successor rating categories of Moody’s) and a rating of BBB- or better by S&P (or its equivalent under any successor rating categories of S&P) or the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any additional Rating Agency or Rating Agencies selected by the Issuers.

 

“Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Services Inc. and its successors.

 

“Rating Agency” means (1) each of Moody’s and S&P; and (2) if either of Moody’s or S&P ceases to rate the Securities or fails to make a rating of the Securities publicly available for reasons outside of the Issuers’ control, a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” within the meaning of Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act, selected by the Issuers as a replacement agency for Moody’s or S&P, or both of them, as the case may be.

 

“S&P” means S&P Global Ratings, a division of S&P Global Inc., and its successors.

 

“Voting Stock” means, with respect to any Person as of any date, capital stock of any class or kind the holders of which are ordinarily, in the absence of contingencies, entitled to vote for the election of directors (or persons performing similar functions) of such Person, even if the right so to vote has been suspended by the happening of such a contingency.

 

Parent Guarantee

 

All payments by the Issuers under the Indenture and the Securities are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Parent.

The Agreements and the Notes have been validly executed and delivered on behalf of the Company.

 

4.4

Furthermore, it cannot be ruled out that the required filing of documents has not occurred or that documents filed with the Register may have been mislaid or lost. In accordance with Luxembourg company law, changes or amendments to corporate documents to be filed at the Register will be effective (opposable) vis-à-vis third parties only as of the day of their publication in the Luxembourg official gazette (Mémorial C, Recueil des Sociétés et Associations or RESA, Recueil électronique des sociétés et associations, as applicable) unless the company proves that the relevant third parties had prior knowledge thereof.

 

5.6

We express no opinion on the legal validity and the enforceability of the Agreements and the Notes.

 

5.7

In the case of legal proceedings being brought before a Luxembourg court or production of the Agreements and/or the Notes before an official Luxembourg authority, such Luxembourg court or official authority may require that the Agreements, the Notes and/or any judgment obtained in a foreign court must be translated into French or German.

 

5.8

Punitive, treble or similar damages may not be enforceable in the Luxembourg courts.

 

5.9

We express no opinion in respect of any provisions set out in the Agreements which refer to rights and obligations of the parties, or definitions, by reference to a specified law, act, statute or regulation under any foreign law.

 

5.10

The Prospectus Supplement has been prepared by the Company, which has accepted responsibility for the information contained therein.

 

6.

This legal opinion is as of this date and we undertake no obligation to update it or advise of changes hereafter occurring. We express no opinion as to any matters other than those expressly set forth herein, and no opinion is, or may be, implied or inferred herefrom. We express no opinion on any economic, financial or statistical information (including formulas determining payments to be made) contained in the Prospectus Supplement, the Notes and the Agreements (or any document in connection therewith).

 

7.

This legal opinion is given on the express basis, accepted by each person who is entitled to rely on it, that this legal opinion and all rights, obligations or liability in relation to it are governed by, and shall be construed in accordance with, Luxembourg law and that any action or claim in relation to it can be brought exclusively before the courts of Luxembourg.

 

8.

In this matter we have taken instructions solely from the Company. This legal opinion however has been addressed to the Addressees in connection with the Company's entry into the Agreements, the Prospectus Supplement and the issue of the Notes. We note that we have not advised the Addressees (other than the Company) on the legal implications of the Agreements, the Prospectus Supplement and the Notes (other than those specifically opined on herein). We exceptionally accept addressing this legal opinion to the Addressees (other than the Company) solely in relation to the matters opined on herein, but the giving of this legal opinion is not to be taken as implying that we owe the Addressees (other than the Company) any duty of care (other than in respect of the accuracy of the opinions expressly provided herein) in relation to the Agreements, the Prospectus Supplement or the Notes, the transactions contemplated by the Agreements, the issue of the Notes and the Prospectus Supplement or their commercial or financial implications. The fact that we have provided this legal opinion to the Addressees (other than the Company) shall further not be deemed to have created any client relationship between us and the Addressees. The following provisions shall also apply in respect of the provision of this legal opinion to the Addressees (other than the Company), except that if and to the extent that any general terms of engagement that we may have in place at the date of this legal opinion with the Addressees(other than the Company) where such Addressees (other than the Company) are our clients have a different effect, then such other effect shall apply in relation to the provision of this legal opinion:

 

8.1

we shall have no obligation to advise the Addressees (other than the Company) in the future on any of the matters referred to in this legal opinion and the fact that we have provided this legal opinion to the Addressees (other than the Company) (i) shall not restrict us from representing and advising the Company (if the Company so requests) in relation to any matter at any time in the future (whether or not separate legal advisors are retained on any such matters by the Addressees (other than the Company)), and (ii) shall not be deemed to have caused us any conflict of interest in relation to the giving of any such advice; and

 

8.2

as regards the Addressees (other than the Company), any non-contractual rights and obligations arising out of or in connection with this legal opinion are governed by and are to be construed in accordance with Luxembourg law and the courts of Luxembourg have exclusive jurisdiction in respect of any dispute or matter arising out of or in connection with this legal opinion.

 

9.

Any Addressee who is entitled to, and does, rely on this legal opinion agrees, by so relying, that, to the fullest extent permitted by law and regulation (and except in the case of wilful misconduct or fraud) there is no assumption of personal duty of care by, and such person will not bring any claim against, any individual who is a partner of, member of, employee of or consultant to Allen Overy Shearman Sterling SCS, société en commandite simple, Allen Overy Shearman Sterling LLP or any other member of the group of Allen Overy Shearman Sterling undertakings and that such person will instead confine any claim to Allen Overy Shearman Sterling SCS, société en commandite simple, Allen & Overy Shearman Sterling or any other member of the group of Allen Overy Shearman Sterling undertakings (and for this purpose "claim" means (save only where law and regulation applies otherwise) any claim, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), for breach of statutory duty, or otherwise).

 

10.

Luxembourg legal concepts are expressed in English terms and not in their original French or German 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. It should be noted that there are always irreconcilable differences between languages making it impossible to guarantee a totally accurate translation or interpretation. In particular, there are always some legal concepts which exist in one jurisdiction and not in another, and in those cases it is bound to be difficult to provide a completely satisfactory translation or interpretation because the vocabulary is missing from the language. We accept no responsibility for omissions or inaccuracies to the extent that they are attributable to such factors.

 

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the use of our name under the caption “Legal Matters” in the Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are included in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission. This opinion may be relied upon by Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP in connection with the provision of its legal opinion to be rendered in connection with the Registration Statement.
