Aptiv PLC | | Aptiv Global Financing Designated Activity Company |
$500,000,000 6.875% Fixed-to-Fixed Reset Rate Junior Subordinated Notes due 2054
Aptiv PLC, a public limited company incorporated under the laws of Jersey (the “Issuer”), and Aptiv Global Financing Designated Activity Company (formerly known as Aptiv Global Financing Limited), incorporated in Ireland and an indirect subsidiary of Aptiv PLC (the “Co-Obligor” and, together with Aptiv PLC, the “Issuers”), are offering $500,000,000 of 6.875% Fixed-to-Fixed Reset Rate Junior Subordinated Notes due 2054 (the “Notes”). The Notes will bear interest (i) from and including the date of original issuance to, but excluding, December 15, 2029 at an annual rate of 6.875% and (ii) from and including December 15, 2029, during each Interest Reset Period (as defined herein) at an annual rate equal to the Five-Year Treasury Rate (as defined in herein) as of the most recent Reset Interest Determination Date (as defined herein), plus 3.385%. The Notes will mature on December 15, 2054. Interest on the Notes will, subject to our right to defer interest payments (as described below), be payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on June 15, 2025. See “Description of Notes—Principal, Maturity and Interest.”
So long as no Event of Default (as defined herein) with respect to the Notes has occurred and is continuing, we may, at our option, defer interest payments on the Notes on one or more occasions, from time to time, for up to 20 consecutive semi-annual Interest Payment Periods (as defined herein). During any deferral period, interest on the Notes will continue to accrue at the then-applicable interest rate on the Notes, and, in addition, interest on deferred interest will accrue at the then-applicable interest rate on the Notes, compounded semi-annually, to the extent permitted by applicable law, as described in this prospectus supplement. See “Description of Notes—Option to Defer Interest Payments.”
The Issuers may, at their option, redeem all or part of the Notes at the times and at the redemption prices described herein. See “Description of Notes—Redemption.” In addition, the Issuers may, at their option, redeem all, but not a part, of the Notes at any time in the event of certain developments affecting taxation as described herein. See “Description of Notes—Redemption—Tax Redemption.”
The obligations under the Notes will initially be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Aptiv Corporation, a Delaware corporation and an indirect subsidiary of Aptiv PLC (the “Guarantor”). The Notes and the guarantee will be general unsecured and subordinated obligations of the Issuers and the Guarantor, respectively, and will rank (a) junior and subordinate in right of payment with all of the Issuers’ and the Guarantor’s respective existing and future Senior Indebtedness (as defined herein), including all of Aptiv PLC’s outstanding notes, which are also issued or guaranteed by Aptiv Corporation and Aptiv Global Financing Designated Activity Company, and borrowings under Aptiv’s credit facilities, and (b) equal in right of payment with all of the Issuers’ and the Guarantor’s respective future unsecured indebtedness that may be incurred from time to time if the terms of such indebtedness provide that it ranks equally with the Notes in right of payment. The Notes and the guarantee will be effectively subordinated to any of the Issuers’ and the Guarantor’s respective future secured debt to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness. The Notes will be structurally subordinated to all liabilities of the Issuers’ respective subsidiaries (other than the Guarantor). See “Description of Notes—Ranking; Subordination.”
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
Investing in the Notes involves risks. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page S-8 of this prospectus supplement, as well as the risks set forth in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission that are incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus.
The Issuers intend to apply to list the Notes on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”). If such a listing is obtained, the Issuers will have no obligation to maintain such listing, and the Issuers may delist the Notes at any time. There is currently no established trading market for the Notes.
