ARTICLE I

 

THE SERIES OF SECURITIES

 

SECTION 1.1.                  Establishment.

 

There is hereby established a new series of Securities to be issued under the Indenture, to be designated as the Company’s “3.100% Senior Notes due 2026” (the “Senior Notes”).

 

The initial limit upon the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture (except for (i) Senior Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration or transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, other Senior Notes pursuant to Sections 304, 305, 306, 906 or 1108 of the Original Indenture, and (ii) any Senior Notes which, pursuant to Section 303 of the Original Indenture, are deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered thereunder) is $350,000,000; provided, however, that the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes may be increased in the future, without the consent of the Holders of the Senior Notes, on the same terms and conditions and with the same CUSIP and ISIN numbers as the Senior Notes, except that the issue price, the first interest payment date and the issue date may vary.

 

The Senior Notes shall be issued in the form of one or more Global Securities in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto.  The Depositary with respect to the Senior Notes shall be The Depository Trust Company.

 

SECTION 1.2.                  Definitions.

 

The following defined terms used herein shall, unless the context otherwise requires, have the meanings specified below.  Capitalized terms used herein for which no definition is provided herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Original Indenture.

 

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Senior Notes to be redeemed (assuming, for this purpose, that the Senior Notes matured on the Par Call Date (as defined below)) that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Senior Notes (assuming, for this purpose, that the Senior Notes matured on the Par Call Date).

 

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date for the Senior Notes, the average, as determined by the Company, of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest of

 

2











 

such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or if the Company obtains fewer than five such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

 

“Independent Investment Banker” means an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Company.

 

“Interest Payment Date” means May 15 and November 15 of each year, commencing on May 15, 2017.

 

“Par Call Date” means August 15, 2026.

 

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means each of (i) Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. and (ii) two other Primary Treasury Dealers (as defined below) selected by the Company; provided that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a U.S. Government Securities dealer in the United States (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer.

 

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to the Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Company, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed, in each case, as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Company by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.

 

“Regular Record Date” means the May 1 or November 1 of each year (whether or not a Business Day) immediately preceding the related Interest Payment Date.

 

“Treasury Rate” means the rate per year equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date. The Treasury Rate shall be calculated on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date.

 

SECTION 1.3.                  Payment of Principal, Premium, if any, and Interest.

 

The Senior Notes will mature on November 15, 2026.  The Senior Notes shall bear interest at the rate of 3.100% per annum from November 10, 2016.  Interest shall be paid semi-annually on each Interest Payment Date, commencing May 15, 2017 to the Person in whose name the Senior Notes are registered on the Regular Record Date for such Interest Payment Date.  Any such interest that is not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holders on such Regular Record Date and may be paid as provided in Section 307 of the Original Indenture.

 

3











 

Principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on the Senior Notes will be payable, and transfers of the Senior Notes will be registrable, at the Company’s office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, which initially shall be the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.  Transfers of the Senior Notes will also be registrable at any of the Company’s other offices or agencies that it may maintain for that purpose.

 

SECTION 1.4.                  Denominations.

SECTION 1.5.                  No Sinking Fund.

 

The Senior Notes are not entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund.

 

SECTION 1.6.                  Global Securities.

 

The Senior Notes will be issued in the form of one or more Global Securities registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee.  Except under the limited circumstances described below, Senior Notes represented by Global Securities will not be exchangeable for, and will not otherwise be issuable as, Senior Notes in definitive form.  The Global Securities described above may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or its nominee.

 

Owners of beneficial interests in such Global Securities will not be considered the Holders thereof for any purpose under the Indenture, and no Global Security representing a Senior Note shall be exchangeable, except for another Global Security of like denomination and tenor to be registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee or to a successor Depositary or its nominee.  The rights of Holders of such Global Securities shall be exercised only through the Depositary.

 

A Global Security shall be exchangeable for Senior Notes registered in the names of Persons other than the Depositary or its nominee only as provided by Section 305 of the Original Indenture.  Any Global Security that is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be exchangeable for Senior Notes registered in such names as the Depositary shall direct.

SECTION 1.7.                  Transfer.

 

No service charge will be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Senior Notes, but payment will be required of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.

 

SECTION 1.8.                  Defeasance.

 

The provisions of Sections 1202 and 1203 of the Original Indenture will apply to the Senior Notes.

 

SECTION 1.9.                  Optional Redemption.

 

The Senior Notes will be redeemable, at the option of the Company, at any time and from time to time (the date of any such redemption, a “Redemption Date”), in whole or in part, at a redemption price (the “Redemption Price”) equal to:

 

(a)                                 if the Senior Notes are redeemed prior to the Par Call Date, the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes to be redeemed or (ii) an amount equal to the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Senior Notes to be redeemed that would be due if the Senior Notes matured on the Par Call Date, not including any portion of the payments of interest accrued as of such Redemption Date, discounted to such Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate, plus 20 basis points, as calculated by an Independent Investment Banker; or

 

(b)                                 if the Senior Notes are redeemed on or after the Par Call Date, 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes to be redeemed;

 

plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the Senior Notes to be redeemed to, but excluding, such Redemption Date.

 

If the Company has given notice as provided in the Original Indenture and made funds available for the redemption of any Senior Notes called for redemption on the Redemption Date referred to in that notice, those Senior Notes will cease to bear interest on that Redemption Date.  Any interest accrued to the Redemption Date will be paid as specified in such notice.  The Company will give written notice of any redemption of any Senior Notes to Holders of the Senior Notes to be redeemed at their addresses, as shown in the Security Register for the Senior Notes, at least 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date.  The notice of redemption will specify, among other items, the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price and the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes to be redeemed.

 

5











 

If the Company chooses to redeem less than all of the Senior Notes, the particular Senior Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee not more than 45 days prior to the Redemption Date.  The Senior Notes shall be selected by lot or, in the case of Global Securities, pursuant to the applicable procedures of the Depositary, for the Senior Notes to be redeemed in part.

 

SECTION 1.10.           Events of Default.

 

In addition to the Events of Default set forth in Section 501 of the Original Indenture, each of the following will also constitute an “Event of Default” for the Senior Notes:

·                  the entry of a decree or order by a court having jurisdiction in the premises adjudging the Guarantor bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Guarantor under any applicable U.S. Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator (or other similar official) of the Guarantor or of any substantial part of its property or ordering the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 90 consecutive days; or

 

·                  the Guarantee ceases to be in full force and effect (other than in accordance with its terms) or the Guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations under the Guarantee.

(FORM OF REVERSE OF SECURITY)

 

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under a Senior Indenture, dated as of May 21, 2009, as supplemented and amended from time to time (herein called the “Indenture”), between the Company, Principal Financial Services, Inc., as guarantor (herein called the “Guarantor,” as such term is further defined in the Indenture), and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), including by the Ninth Supplemental Indenture thereto dated as of November 10, 2016, among the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee (the “Supplemental Indenture”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Guarantor, 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 limited in aggregate principal amount to $[                    ].

 

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

 

The Securities of this series will be redeemable, at the option of the Company, as set forth in Section 1.9 of the Supplemental Indenture.

 

The Indenture contains provisions for satisfaction, discharge and defeasance of the entire indebtedness on this Security, upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth therein.

 

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.

 

Upon payment of the amount of principal so declared due and payable, of any overdue interest and of interest on any overdue principal and overdue interest at the rate per annum applicable to the Securities of this series set forth on the face hereof (in each case to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable), all of the Company’s obligations in respect of the payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on the Securities of this series shall terminate.

 

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each series to

 

A-5











 

be affected.  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 Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences.  Any such consent or waiver by the Holders of the Securities of such series shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holders and upon all future Holders of Securities of such series and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon such Securities.

No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or Holders of the Senior Notes is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but, to the maximum extent permitted by law, each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Guarantee or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity.  No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default, omission or failure of performance hereunder shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any such right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient.  In order to entitle the Trustee and Holders of the Senior Notes to exercise any remedy reserved to any of them in this Guarantee, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, it shall not be necessary to give any notice.  In the event any provision contained in this Guarantee should be breached, and thereafter duly waived, such waiver shall be limited to the particular breach so waived and shall not be deemed to waive any other breach hereunder.

SECTION 5.6.                  Severability.

 

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the invalidity or unenforceability of any one or more phrases, sentences, clauses or sections contained in

SECTION 5.7.                  Governing Law.

 

THIS GUARANTEE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.  This Guarantee is subject to the Trust Indenture Act and if any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of the Trust Indenture Act that is required by the Trust Indenture Act to be a part of and govern this Guarantee, the latter provision shall control.  If any provision of this Guarantee modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may be so modified or excluded, the latter provision shall be deemed to apply to this Guarantee as so modified, or to be excluded, as the case may be, whether or not such provision of this Guarantee refers expressly to such provision of the Trust Indenture Act.
