#### SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated in this prospectus supplement by reference may contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements that are not historical in nature, and which may be identified by the use of words such as "expects," "assumes," "projects," "anticipates," "estimates," "we believe," "could be," "on track," and other words of similar meaning, are forward-looking statements.

These statements are based on management's expectations and assumptions and are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed. These risks and uncertainties include those risk factors described and discussed in Part I, "Item 1A.

All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this prospectus supplement and are expressly qualified in their entirety by reference to the factors discussed in the 2025 Annual Report.

These risks include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in laws and regulations affecting Broadridge's clients or the services provided by Broadridge;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Broadridge's reliance on a relatively small number of clients, the continued financial health of those clients, and the continued use by such clients of Broadridge's services with favorable pricing terms;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a material security breach or cybersecurity attack affecting the information of Broadridge's clients;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• declines in participation and activity in the securities markets;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the failure of Broadridge's key service providers to provide the anticipated levels of service;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a disaster or other significant slowdown or failure of Broadridge's systems or error in the performance of Broadridge's services;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• overall market, economic and geopolitical conditions and their impact on the securities markets;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the success of Broadridge in retaining and selling additional services to its existing clients and in obtaining new clients;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Broadridge's failure to keep pace with changes in technology and demands of its clients;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• competitive conditions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Broadridge's ability to attract and retain key personnel; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The impact of new acquisitions and divestitures.

There may be other factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements. We can give no assurances that any of the events anticipated by the forward-looking statements will occur or, if any of them do, what impact they will have on our results of operations and financial condition. You should carefully read the factors described in the "Risk Factors" section of our 2025 Annual Report and in the other documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement for a description of certain risks that could, among other things, cause our actual results to differ from these forward-looking statements.

Broadridge disclaims any obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, other than as required by law.

#### RISK FACTORS
*Investing in the notes involves risks. You should carefully consider the risk factors described in the "Risk Factors" section in our 2025 Annual Report and in our other reports filed from time to time with the SEC, which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, as the same may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by our filings under the Exchange Act. See "Where You Can Find More Information" and "Incorporation by Reference" in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. You should carefully consider the risks described below, and the other information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus before investing in the notes. The risks described below are not the only risks applicable to us. Additional risks not currently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial also may impair our business.* 

#### Risks Relating to the Notes

#### We are a holding company, and our only material source of cash is dividends and distributions from our subsidiaries.
The Issuer is a holding company with no material business operations of its own. Its principal assets are the capital stock of its subsidiaries and it conducts virtually all of its business operations through its subsidiaries. As a result, its only material sources of cash are dividends and distributions with respect to its ownership interests in its subsidiaries that are derived from the earnings and cash flow they generate. The Issuer's ability to pay principal and interest on the notes depends in part on the ability of its subsidiaries to declare and distribute dividends or to advance money to the Issuer. The earnings of the Issuer's subsidiaries will depend on their respective financial and operating results, which will be affected by prevailing economic and competitive conditions and by financial, business, and other factors beyond the Issuer's and its subsidiaries' control. Accordingly, if the Issuer's and its subsidiaries' financial condition and operating results were to deteriorate, the Issuer may encounter difficulty in meeting its debt obligations. The ability of the Issuer's subsidiaries to pay dividends and make distributions or other payments to the Issuer may be restricted by, among other things, applicable laws and regulations and by the terms of the agreements in which they have entered.

As a result of the Issuer's holding company structure, in the event of the insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution or other winding-up of any of its subsidiaries, all of such subsidiaries' creditors would be entitled to payment in full out of its assets before the Issuer, as shareholder, would be entitled to any payment.

#### We may be unable to generate sufficient cash to service our debt obligations and make payments on the notes.
Our ability to pay our expenses and to pay the principal and interest on the notes and our other debt depends on our ability to generate positive cash flows in the future. Our operations may not generate cash flows in an amount sufficient to enable us to pay the principal and interest on our debt, including the notes, or to fund our other liquidity needs. If we do not have sufficient cash flows from operations, we may be required to incur additional indebtedness, refinance all or part of our existing debt, including the notes, or sell assets. Any inability to generate sufficient cash flows or refinance our debt on favorable terms could significantly and adversely affect our financial condition, the value of the notes and our ability to pay the principal and interest on our debt, including the notes. In addition, the terms of our other debt agreements or applicable law may limit our ability to repurchase the notes for cash.

#### The notes will be unsecured and rank behind any future secured creditors to the extent of the value of the collateral securing their claims.
Holders of any future secured indebtedness will have claims that are prior to your claims as holders of the notes to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. In the event of any distribution or payment of our assets in any foreclosure, dissolution, winding-up, liquidation, reorganization or other bankruptcy proceeding, holders of our secured indebtedness will have prior claim to our assets that constitute their collateral. If any of these events occurs, the secured lenders could sell those of our assets in which they have been granted a security interest, to your exclusion, even if an event of default exists under the indenture governing the notes at such time. Only when our secured debt obligations are satisfied in full will the proceeds of the collateral securing such indebtedness be available, subject to other permitted liens, to satisfy obligations under the notes. Holders of the notes will participate ratably with all holders of the Issuer's unsecured indebtedness that is deemed to rank

S-9<br>

------

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
equally with the notes, based upon the respective amount owed to each creditor. Upon the occurrence of any of the aforementioned events, because the notes will not be secured by any of the Issuer's assets, it is possible that its remaining assets might be insufficient to satisfy your claims in full. As of March 31, 2026, the Issuer did not have any secured indebtedness.

#### The notes will be structurally junior to the indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries.
You will not have any claim as a creditor against our subsidiaries, and all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables and preferred stock, whether secured or unsecured, of those subsidiaries will be structurally senior to the notes. Furthermore, in the event of any bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of any of our subsidiaries, the rights of the holders of notes to participate in the assets of such subsidiary will rank behind the claims of that subsidiary's creditors, including trade creditors and preferred stockholders (except to the extent we have a claim as a creditor of such subsidiary). As a result, the notes are structurally subordinated to the outstanding indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables and preferred stock, of our subsidiaries. As of March 31, 2026, our subsidiaries had approximately $2,242 million in liabilities and no outstanding preferred stock. In addition, the indenture will permit these subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness and does not contain any limitation on the amount of other liabilities, such as trade payables, that may be incurred by these subsidiaries.

***We may not be able to repurchase all of the notes upon a change of control repurchase event, and there is a possibility that this covenant may be unenforceable under certain circumstances.***

We may not be able to repurchase all of the notes upon a change of control repurchase event, and there is a possibility that this covenant may be unenforceable under certain circumstances. As described under "*Description of Notes—Purchase of Notes upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event*" we will be required to make an offer to repurchase the notes upon the occurrence of a "change of control repurchase event," which means that a change of control has occurred and, within 60 days thereafter, the notes were to cease to be rated investment grade. We may not have sufficient funds to repurchase the notes in cash at that time or have the ability to arrange necessary financing on acceptable terms.

#### None of our properties has been determined to be a Principal Property (as defined in and under the indenture).
The indenture will include covenants that, among other things, limit our ability to create or permit to exist mortgages and other liens and enter into sale and leaseback transactions with respect to Principal Properties unless the notes are secured on an equal and ratable basis. As of the date of this prospectus supplement, none of our properties is a Principal Property under the indenture.

#### There is currently no public market for the notes, and an active trading market may not develop for the notes.
There is currently no established trading market for the notes. We do not intend to apply for the notes to be listed on a national securities exchange or to arrange for quotation on any automated dealer quotation systems. The underwriters have advised us that they intend to make a market in the notes as permitted by applicable laws and regulations; however, the underwriters are not obligated to make a market in the notes, and, if commenced, they may, in their sole discretion, discontinue their market-making activities at any time without notice. Therefore, we cannot assure you as to the development or liquidity of any market for the notes, your ability to resell any of your notes or the price at which you may be able to resell your notes. If an active trading market for the notes were to develop, the notes could trade at prices that might be lower than their original offering price as a result of many factors, including prevailing interest rates, our operating performance and financial condition, our prospects or the prospects for companies in our industry generally, the interest of securities dealers in making a market in our notes, our credit ratings with major credit rating agencies and the market for similar securities.

#### DESCRIPTION OF OTHER INDEBTEDNESS

#### Term Credit Agreement
On August 21, 2025, we entered into the Term Credit Agreement (the "Term Credit Agreement"), providing for term loan commitment in an aggregate principal amount of $750.0 million (the "Fiscal 2026 Term Loan"), replacing the Fiscal 2024 Amended Term Loan. The Fiscal 2026 Term Loan will mature in August 2030 on the fifth anniversary of the amended Funding Date of August 21, 2025. The Fiscal 2026 Term Loan bears interest at Term SOFR plus 1.250% per annum (subject to a step-up to Term SOFR plus 1.375% or term SOFR plus 1.625% or a step-down to Term SOFR plus 1.125% or Term SOFR plus 1.000%, in each case, based on ratings).We may voluntarily prepay the Fiscal 2026 Term Loan in whole or in part and without premium or penalty. In the event of receipt of cash proceeds by us or our subsidiaries from certain incurrences of indebtedness, certain equity issuances, and certain sales, transfers or other dispositions of assets, we will be required to prepay the Fiscal 2026 Term Loan, subject to certain limitations and qualifications as set forth in the Term Credit Agreement. The Term Credit Agreement is subject to certain covenants, including a leverage ratio. At March 31, 2026, we were in compliance with all covenants of the Fiscal 2026 Term Loan.

#### Revolving Credit Facilities
In December 2024, we entered into an amended and restated $1.5 billion five-year revolving credit facility (the "Fiscal 2025 Revolving Credit Facility"), which replaced the $1.5 billion five-year revolving credit facility entered into during April 2021 (the "Fiscal 2021 Revolving Credit Facility") (together the "Revolving Credit Facilities"). The Fiscal 2025 Revolving Credit Facility is comprised of a $1.0 billion U.S. dollar tranche and a $500.0 million multicurrency tranche.

The weighted-average interest rate on the Revolving Credit Facilities was 4.46% and 5.68% for the nine months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The fair value of the variable-rate Fiscal 2025 Revolving Credit Facility borrowings at March 31, 2026 approximates carrying value and has been classified as a Level 2 financial liability.

The Fiscal 2025 Revolving Credit Facility also has a facility fee of 0.125% per annum (subject to multiple step-ups to 0.25% per annum and multiple step-downs to 0.090% per annum, in each case, based on ratings). The Company may voluntarily prepay, in whole or in part and without premium or penalty, borrowings under the Fiscal 2025 Revolving Credit Facility in accordance with the terms of such facility. The Fiscal 2025 Revolving Credit Facility is subject to certain covenants, including a leverage ratio. At March 31, 2026, we were in compliance with all covenants of the Fiscal 2025 Revolving Credit Facility.

#### 3.400% senior notes due 2026
In June 2016, we completed an offering of $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior notes (the "Fiscal 2016 Senior Notes").

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**

#### DESCRIPTION OF NOTES
Selected provisions of the notes are summarized below. This summary supplements and, to the extent inconsistent with, replaces the description of the debt securities under the caption "Description of Debt Securities" in the accompanying prospectus. You should read the following information in conjunction with the statements under "Description of Debt Securities" in the accompanying prospectus.

The notes will be issued under an indenture dated , 2026 (the "*base indenture*") between Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. ("*Broadridge*") and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the "*trustee*"), as supplemented to reflect certain terms of the notes by a supplemental indenture to be dated as of , 2026 (together with the base indenture, the "*indenture*"). The following summary of provisions of the indenture and the % senior notes due 2036 (the "*notes*") does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, all of the provisions of the indenture, including definitions therein of certain terms and provisions made a part of the indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. This summary may not contain all the information that you may find useful. You should read the indenture and the notes, copies of which are available from Broadridge upon request. Capitalized terms used and not defined in this description of notes have the meanings specified in the indenture. References to "Broadridge" or "the Issuer" in this section of this prospectus supplement are, unless the context otherwise indicates, only to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. and not to any of its subsidiaries.

#### General
The notes will have the following basic terms:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the notes will be unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of Broadridge and will rank equally in right of payment with all other existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated debt obligations of Broadridge;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the notes are obligations exclusively of Broadridge and are not guaranteed by any of its subsidiaries;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the notes initially will be issued in an aggregate principal amount of $ million, and Broadridge will have the ability to issue additional notes as described under "*—Further Issuances*" below;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the notes will accrue interest at a rate of     % *per annum*;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• interest will accrue on the notes from the most recent interest payment date to or for which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from the issue date of the notes), payable semiannually in arrears on      and      of each year, commencing on     , 2026;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the notes will mature on     , 2036 unless redeemed or repurchased prior to that date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Broadridge may redeem the notes, in whole or in part, at any time at its option as described under "*—Optional Redemption*" below;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Broadridge may be required to repurchase the notes in whole or in part at the option of the holders in connection with the occurrence of a "change of control repurchase event" as described under "*—Purchase of Notes upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event*" in the accompanying prospectus;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the notes will be issued in registered form in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the notes will be represented by one or more global notes registered in the name of a nominee of DTC, but in certain circumstances may be represented by notes in definitive form (see "*—Book-Entry; Delivery and Form; Global Notes*" below).

Interest on each note will be paid to the person in whose name that note is registered at the close of business on or , as the case may be, immediately preceding the relevant interest payment date. Interest on the notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

If any interest or other payment date of a note falls on a day that is not a business day, the required payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest will be due on the next succeeding business day as if made on the date that the payment was due, and no interest will accrue on that payment for the period from and after that

S-15<br>

------

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
interest or other payment date, as the case may be, to the date of that payment on the next succeeding business day. The term "business day" means, with respect to any note, any day other than a Saturday, a Sunday or a day on which banking institutions or trust companies in New York City are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close.

The notes will not be subject to any sinking fund. Broadridge may, subject to compliance with applicable law, at any time purchase notes in the open market or otherwise.

#### Payment and Transfer or Exchange
Principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the notes will be payable, and the notes may be exchanged or transferred, at the office or agency maintained by Broadridge for such purpose (which initially will be the corporate trust office of the trustee). Payment of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on a global note registered in the name of or held by DTC or its nominee will be made in immediately available funds to DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered holder of such global note. If any of the notes are no longer represented by a global note, payment of interest on certificated notes in definitive form may, at the option of Broadridge, be made by (i) check mailed directly to holders at their registered addresses or (ii) upon request of any holder of at least $1,000,000 principal amount of notes, wire transfer to an account located in the United States maintained by the payee. See "*—Book-Entry; Delivery and Form; Global Notes*" below.

A holder may transfer or exchange any certificated notes in definitive form at the office or agency of Broadridge maintained for such purposes (which initially will be the corporate trust office of the trustee). No service charge will be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of notes, but Broadridge may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or other similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith. Broadridge is not required to transfer or exchange any note selected for redemption during a period of 15 days before mailing of a notice of redemption of notes to be redeemed.

The registered holder of a note will be treated as the owner of that note for all purposes under the indenture.

All amounts of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the notes paid by Broadridge that remain unclaimed two years after such payment was due and payable will be repaid to Broadridge, and the holders of such notes will thereafter look solely to Broadridge for payment.

#### Ranking
The notes will be unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of Broadridge and will rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of Broadridge. As of March 31, 2026, Broadridge had approximately $3,227.0 million of unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness outstanding.

The notes will effectively rank junior in right of payment to all existing and future secured indebtedness of Broadridge to the extent of the assets securing such indebtedness, and to all existing and future liabilities of its subsidiaries, including indebtedness and trade payables. As of March 31, 2026, Broadridge did not have any outstanding secured indebtedness.

Broadridge is a holding company with no material assets and derives substantially all of its operating income and cash flow from its subsidiaries. Therefore, Broadridge's ability to make payments when due to the holders of the notes is dependent upon the receipt of sufficient funds from its subsidiaries. Claims of creditors of Broadridge's subsidiaries generally will have priority with respect to the assets and earnings of such subsidiaries over the claims of Broadridge's creditors, including holders of the notes. Accordingly, the notes will be effectively subordinated to creditors, including trade creditors and preferred stockholders, if any, of Broadridge's subsidiaries.

#### Optional Redemption
Prior to , 2036 (three months prior to the maturity date of the notes) (the "Par Call Date"), Broadridge may redeem the notes at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of:

(1) 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, and 

(2) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon 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 basis points less (b) interest accrued and unpaid to the date of redemption,

S-16<br>

------

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
*plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the redemption date.* 

On or after the Par Call Date, Broadridge may redeem the notes, 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 notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the redemption date.

"*Treasury Rate*" means, with respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by Broadridge in accordance with the following two paragraphs.

The Treasury Rate shall be determined by Broadridge 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, Broadridge 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, Broadridge 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, Broadridge 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, Broadridge 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.

Broadridge's actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the depositary's procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of notes to be redeemed.

In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the notes for redemption will be made pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the trustee in its sole discretion deems appropriate and fair. No notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any note 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 a

S-17<br>

------

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. For so long as the notes are held by DTC (or another depositary), the redemption of the notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the depositary.

Unless Broadridge defaults 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.

#### Purchase of Notes upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event
If a change of control repurchase event occurs, unless Broadridge has redeemed the notes as described above, Broadridge will be required to make an offer to each holder of the notes to repurchase all or any part (in excess of $2,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000) of that holder's notes at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the notes repurchased to, but not including, the date of repurchase. Within 30 days following any change of control repurchase event or, at the option of Broadridge, prior to any change of control, but after the public announcement of the change of control, Broadridge will mail (or electronically deliver) a notice to each holder, with a copy to the trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute 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 sent. The notice shall, if sent prior to the date of consummation of the change of control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on a change of control repurchase event occurring on or prior to the payment date specified in the notice. Broadridge will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other securities laws and regulations 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 the change of control repurchase event provisions of the notes, Broadridge will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the change of control repurchase event provisions of the notes by virtue of compliance with such securities laws or regulations.

The paying agent will promptly mail to each holder of notes properly tendered the purchase price for the 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 notes surrendered.

Broadridge 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 Broadridge and such third party purchases all notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

The change of control repurchase event feature of the notes may in certain circumstances make more difficult or discourage a sale or takeover of Broadridge. The change of control repurchase event feature is a result of negotiations between Broadridge and the underwriters. Broadridge has no present intention to engage in a transaction involving a change of control, although it is possible that Broadridge could decide to do so in the future. Subject to the limitations discussed below, Broadridge could, in the future, enter into certain transactions, including acquisitions, refinancings or other recapitalizations, that would not constitute a change of control under the indenture, but that could increase the amount of indebtedness outstanding at such time or otherwise affect the capital structure of Broadridge or credit ratings of the notes.

Broadridge may not have sufficient funds to repurchase all the notes upon a change of control repurchase event. In addition, even if it has sufficient funds, Broadridge may be prohibited from repurchasing the notes under the terms of its future debt instruments.

For purposes of the foregoing discussion of a repurchase at the option of holders, the following definitions are applicable:

"*change of control*" means the occurrence of any of the following: (1) the sale, lease, 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 properties or assets of Broadridge and its subsidiaries taken as a whole to any "person" (as that term is used in Section 13(d) and Section 14(d) of the Exchange Act) other than Broadridge or one of its subsidiaries; or (2) Broadridge becomes aware of (by way of a report or any other filing pursuant to

S-18<br>

------

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, proxy, vote, written notice or otherwise) the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any "person" or "group" (as those terms are used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), other than Broadridge or its subsidiaries, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13(d)(3) and 13(d)(5) of the Exchange Act) of more than 50% of the combined voting power of Broadridge's voting stock or other voting stock into which Broadridge's voting stock is reclassified, consolidated, exchanged or changed, measured by voting power rather than number of shares. A transaction will not be deemed to involve a change of control under clause (2) above if (i) Broadridge becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company and (ii)(A) the direct or indirect holders of the voting stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of the voting stock of Broadridge immediately prior to that transaction or (B) immediately following that transaction, no person (other than one or more holding companies satisfying the requirements of this sentence) is the beneficial owner of more than 50% of the voting stock of such holding company.

"*change of control repurchase event*" means the occurrence of both a change of control and a ratings event.

"*Fitch*" means Fitch Ratings, Inc., or any successor to the rating agency business thereof.

"*investment grade*" means a rating of Baa3 or better by Moody's (or its equivalent under any successor rating categories of Moody's); a rating of BBB- or better by S&P (or its equivalent under any successor rating categories of S&P); a rating of BBB- or better by Fitch (or its equivalent under any successor rating categories of Fitch); and the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any additional rating agency or rating agencies selected by Broadridge.

"*Moody's*" means Moody's Investors Service Inc., or any successor to the rating agency business thereof.

"*rating agency*" means (1) each of Moody's, S&P and Fitch; and (2) if any of Moody's, S&P and Fitch ceases to rate the notes or fails to make a rating of the notes publicly available for reasons outside of the control of Broadridge, a "nationally recognized statistical rating organization" within the meaning of Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act, selected by Broadridge as a replacement for such rating agency.

"*ratings event*" means that at any time within 60 days after the earlier of (i) the date of the first public occurrence of a change of control and (ii) the date of public notice of an agreement that, if consummated, would result in a change of control the rating of the notes is lowered by one or more categories (i.e., notches) by at least two of the three rating agencies and the notes are rated below investment grade by at least two of the three rating agencies on any day during such period (which period will be extended so long as the rating of the notes is under publicly announced consideration for a possible downgrade by any of the rating agencies); *provided* that, in each case, any such ratings event is expressly stated by the applicable rating agency to have been the result of the change of control.

"*S&P*" means S&P Global Ratings, or any successor to the rating agency business thereof.

"*voting stock*" of any specified person as of any date means the capital stock of such person that is at the time entitled to vote generally in the election of the board of directors of such person.

#### Further Issuances
Broadridge may from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the holders of the notes, create and issue additional notes ranking equally and ratably with, and having the same terms as to ranking, redemption, waivers, amendments or otherwise (except for the issue date and, if applicable, the issue price, first interest payment date, initial interest accrual date and the amount of interest payable on the first interest payment date) as, the notes in all respects. Such additional notes may be consolidated and form a single series with the notes and will vote together as one class on all matters with respect to the notes, *provided* that if such additional notes are not fungible with the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such additional notes will have a different CUSIP number.

#### Certain Covenants
The indenture will contain the following principal covenants:

#### Limitation on Liens
Broadridge will not, and will not permit any Significant Subsidiary to, create, incur or assume any lien on any Principal Property to secure indebtedness for borrowed money of Broadridge or any Significant Subsidiary,

S-19<br>

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
without securing the notes equally and ratably with such indebtedness for so long as such indebtedness shall be so secured, subject to certain exceptions. Exceptions include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens existing on the date of the indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens on Principal Property of a person at the time it becomes a subsidiary securing only indebtedness of such person; *provided* such indebtedness was not incurred in connection with such person or entity becoming a subsidiary and such liens do not extend to any Principal Property other than those of the person becoming a subsidiary;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens existing on Principal Property created at the time of, or within 18 months after, the acquisition, purchase, lease, improvement or development of such Principal Property to secure all or a portion of the purchase price or lease for, or the costs of improvement or development of, such Principal Property;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens to secure any extension, renewal, refinancing or refunding (or successive extensions, renewals, refinancings or refundings), in whole or in part, of any indebtedness secured by liens referred to herein or liens created in connection with any amendment, consent or waiver relating to such indebtedness, so long as such lien is limited to all or part of substantially the same property which secured the lien extended, renewed or replaced and the amount of indebtedness secured is not increased (other than by the amount equal to any costs and expenses (including any premiums, fees or penalties) incurred in connection with any extension, renewal, refinancing or refunding);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens on Principal Property incurred in permitted sale and leaseback transactions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens in favor of only Broadridge or one or more subsidiaries granted by Broadridge or a subsidiary to secure any obligations owed to Broadridge or a subsidiary of Broadridge;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens on Principal Property of any subsidiary of Broadridge registered as a "broker" or a "dealer" as such terms are defined in Sections 3(a)(4) and (5) of the Exchange Act created or otherwise arising in the ordinary course of such subsidiary's business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens on securities deemed to exist under repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements entered into by Broadridge or any Significant Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens in favor of the trustee granted in accordance with the indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens for taxes, assessments or other governmental charges or levies not yet delinquent by more than 30 days or not yet subject to penalties for nonpayment or that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which Broadridge or any Significant Subsidiary, as applicable, has maintained adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens otherwise prohibited by this covenant, securing indebtedness which, together with the value of attributable debt incurred in sale and leaseback transactions permitted under "— *Limitation on Sale and Leaseback Transactions*" below, do not exceed the greater of (i) 7.5% of Total Assets measured at the date of incurrence of any such lien and (ii) $650 million.

#### Limitation on Sale and Leaseback Transactions
Broadridge will not, and will not permit any Significant Subsidiary to, enter into any arrangement with any third-party lender or investor pursuant to which Broadridge or any Significant Subsidiary leases any Principal Property that has been or is to be sold or transferred by Broadridge or the Significant Subsidiary to such third-party lender or investor (a "*sale and leaseback transaction*"), except that a sale and leaseback transaction is permitted if Broadridge or such Significant Subsidiary would be entitled to incur indebtedness secured by a lien on the Principal Property to be leased (without equally and ratably securing the outstanding notes) in an amount equal to the present value of the lease payments with respect to the term of the lease remaining on the date as of which the amount is being determined, discounted at the rate of interest set forth or implicit in the terms of the lease, compounded semi-annually (such amount is referred to as the "*attributable debt*").

In addition, permitted sale and leaseback transactions not subject to the limitation above and the provisions described in "—*Limitation on Liens*" above include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• temporary leases for a term, including renewals at the option of the lessee, of not more than three years;

S-20<br>

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• leases between only Broadridge and a subsidiary of Broadridge or only between subsidiaries of Broadridge;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• leases where the proceeds are at least equal to the fair market value (as determined by Broadridge's board of directors) of the property and Broadridge applies within 180 days after the sale of an amount equal to the greater of the net proceeds of the sale or the attributable debt associated with the property to the retirement of long-term secured indebtedness; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• leases of Principal Property executed by the time of, or within 12 months after the latest of, the acquisition, the completion of construction or improvement, or the commencement of commercial operation of the Principal Property.

#### Limitation on Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets
Broadridge may not consolidate or merge with or into another entity, or sell, lease, convey, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property and assets taken as a whole to another entity unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• either (1) Broadridge is the surviving or continuing corporation or (2) the successor entity, if other than Broadridge, is a U.S. corporation, partnership, limited liability company or trust and expressly assumes all of Broadridge's obligations under the notes and the indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• immediately after giving effect to the transaction, no event of default (as defined below) has occurred and is continuing; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• certain other conditions are met, including delivery by us to the Trustee of an officer's certificate and opinion of counsel as required by the indenture.

In the case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other conveyance, but not a lease, in a transaction in which there is a successor entity, the successor entity will succeed to, and be substituted for, Broadridge under the indenture and, subject to the terms of the indenture, Broadridge will be released from the obligation to pay principal and interest on the notes and all obligations under the indenture.

#### Events of Default
Each of the following is an "*event of default*" under the indenture with respect to the notes:

(1)<br> a failure to pay principal of or premium, if any, on any note when due at its stated maturity date, upon optional redemption or otherwise;

(2)<br> a failure to pay interest on the notes when due and payable, continued for 30 days;

(3)<br> certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization involving Broadridge;

(4)<br> a failure to comply with "—*Certain Covenants—Limitation on Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets*" covenant described above;

(5)<br> a default in the performance, or breach, of any other covenant, warranty or agreement in the indenture (other than a default or breach pursuant to clause (4) immediately above) for 60 days after a Notice of Default (as defined below) is given to Broadridge; and

(6) (a) a failure to make any payment at maturity, including any applicable grace period, on any indebtedness of Broadridge (other than indebtedness of Broadridge owing to any of its subsidiaries) outstanding in an amount in excess of $200.0 million or its foreign currency equivalent at the time and continuance of this failure to pay or (b) a default on any indebtedness of Broadridge (other than indebtedness owing to any of its subsidiaries), which default results in the acceleration of such indebtedness in an amount in excess of $200.0 million or its foreign currency equivalent at the time without such indebtedness having been discharged or the acceleration having been cured, waived, rescinded or annulled, in the case of clause (a) or (b) above; *provided*, *however*, that if any failure, default or acceleration referred to in clauses 6(a) or (b) above ceases or is cured, waived, rescinded or annulled, then the event of default under the indenture will be deemed cured. 

A default under clause (5) above is not an event of default until the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the notes then outstanding notify Broadridge of the default and Broadridge

S-21<br>

------

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
does not cure such default within the time specified after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify the default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a "*Notice of Default*."

Broadridge shall deliver to the trustee, within 30 days after the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an officer's certificate of any event that with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both would become an event of default, its status and what action Broadridge is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

If an event of default (other than an event of default resulting from certain events involving bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization with respect to Broadridge) shall have occurred and be continuing, the trustee or the registered holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the notes then outstanding may declare, by notice to Broadridge in writing (and to the trustee, if given by the holders of the notes) specifying the event of default, to be immediately due and payable the principal amount of all the notes then outstanding, plus accrued but unpaid interest to the date of acceleration. In case an event of default resulting from certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization with respect to Broadridge shall occur, such amount with respect to all the notes shall be due and payable immediately without any declaration or other act on the part of the trustee or the holders of the notes. Unless as otherwise provided herein, after any such acceleration, but before a judgment or decree based on acceleration is obtained by the trustee, the registered holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of notes then outstanding may, under certain circumstances, rescind and annul such acceleration and waive such event of default with respect to the notes if all events of default, other than the nonpayment of accelerated principal, premium or interest with respect to the notes, have been cured or waived as provided in the indenture.

Subject to the provisions of the indenture relating to the duties of the trustee, in case an event of default shall occur and be continuing, the trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders of the notes, unless such holders shall have offered to the trustee reasonable indemnity or security against any loss, liability or expense. Subject to such provisions for the indemnification of the trustee, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the notes then outstanding will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the trustee with respect to the notes.

No holder of notes will have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to the indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any remedy thereunder, unless:

(a)<br> such holder has previously given to the trustee written notice of a continuing event of default,

(b) the registered holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the notes then outstanding have made written request and offered reasonable indemnity to the trustee to institute such proceeding as trustee, and 

(c) the trustee shall not have received from the registered holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the notes then outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request and shall have failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days. 

However, such limitations do not apply to a suit instituted by a holder of any note for enforcement of payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, or interest on, such note on or after the respective due dates expressed in such note.

The indenture requires Broadridge to furnish to the trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, a statement of an officer regarding compliance with the indenture. Upon becoming aware of any default or event of default, Broadridge is required to deliver to the trustee a statement specifying such default or event of default.

Subject to certain exceptions, the indenture may be amended with the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the then-outstanding notes of all series affected by such amendment (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange for notes of such series). Broadridge and the trustee may, without the consent of any holders, change the indenture for any of the following purposes:

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• to add to or change any of the provisions of the indenture as necessary to permit or facilitate the issuance of notes in bearer form, registrable or not registrable as to principal, and with or without interest coupons, or to permit or facilitate the issuance of notes in uncertificated form;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• to secure the notes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• to make any change necessary to comply with any requirement of the SEC in connection with the qualification of the indenture or any supplemental indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (the "*Act* ");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• to conform the indenture to this Description of Notes; and

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no modification, supplement, waiver or amendment may, without the consent of the holder of each note affected thereby:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• make any change to the percentage of principal amount of notes the holders of which must consent to an amendment, modification, supplement or waiver;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• make any note payable in money other than that stated in the indenture or the note;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to the notes; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• make any change in the ranking or priority of any note that would adversely affect the holder of such note.

The holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding notes may waive compliance by Broadridge with certain restrictive provisions of the indenture with respect to the notes. The holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding notes may waive any past default under the indenture, except a default not theretofore cured in the payment of principal or interest and certain covenants and provisions of the indenture which cannot be amended without the consent of the holder of each outstanding note.

#### Defeasance
Broadridge at any time may terminate all its obligations with respect to the notes and the indenture (such termination, "*legal defeasance*"), except for certain obligations, including those respecting the defeasance trust and obligations to register the transfer or exchange of the notes, to replace mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen notes and to maintain a registrar and paying agent in respect of the notes. Broadridge at any time may also terminate its obligations with respect to the notes under the covenants described under "—*Certain Covenants—Limitation on Liens*," "—*Certain Covenants—Limitation on Sale and Leaseback Transactions*," under clause (5) under "—*Events of Default*" and under the provisions described under "—*Purchase of Notes upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event*," which termination is referred to in this prospectus supplement as "covenant defeasance." Broadridge may exercise its legal defeasance option notwithstanding its prior exercise of its covenant defeasance option.

If Broadridge exercises its legal defeasance option with respect to the notes, payment of the notes may not be accelerated because of an event of default with respect thereto. If Broadridge exercises its covenant

S-24<br>

------

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
defeasance option with respect to the notes, payment of the notes may not be accelerated because of an event of default specified in clauses (5) and (6) under "—*Events of Default*" with respect to the covenants described under "—*Certain Covenants*" and Broadridge will no longer be obligated to make an offer under the "—*Purchase of Notes upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event*" provision upon the occurrence of a change of control.

The legal defeasance option or the covenant defeasance option with respect to the notes may be exercised only if:

(a) Broadridge irrevocably deposits in trust with the trustee money or U.S. government securities or a combination thereof, which through the payment of interest thereon and principal thereof in accordance with their terms, will provide money in an amount sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay principal and interest when due on all the notes being defeased to maturity or the Par Call Date, as applicable; 

(b) no default or event of default with respect to the notes has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a default or event of default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit (and any similar concurrent deposit relating to other indebtedness), and the granting of liens to secure such borrowings); 

(c)<br> in the case of the legal defeasance option, Broadridge delivers to the trustee an opinion of counsel stating that:

(1)<br> Broadridge has received from the Internal Revenue Service a ruling; or

(2) since the date of the indenture there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, to the effect, in either case, that and based thereon such opinion of counsel shall confirm that the beneficial owners of the notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same time as would have been the case if such defeasance has not occurred; 

(d) in the case of the covenant defeasance option, Broadridge delivers to the trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the beneficial owners of the notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred; and 

(e)<br> Broadridge delivers to the trustee an officer's certificate and an opinion of counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance and discharge of the notes have been complied with as required by the indenture.

#### Discharge
When (i) Broadridge delivers to the trustee all outstanding notes (other than notes replaced because of mutilation, loss, destruction or wrongful taking) for cancellation or (ii) all outstanding notes have become due and payable, or are by their terms due and payable within one year whether at maturity or are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the trustee, and in the case of clause (ii) Broadridge irrevocably deposits with the trustee funds sufficient to pay at maturity or upon redemption all outstanding notes, including interest thereon, and if in either case Broadridge pays all other sums related to the notes payable under the indenture by Broadridge, then the indenture shall, subject to certain surviving provisions, cease to be of further effect. The trustee shall acknowledge satisfaction and discharge of the indenture with respect to the notes on demand of Broadridge accompanied by an officer's certificate and an opinion of counsel of Broadridge.

#### Same-day Settlement and Payment
The notes will trade in the same-day funds settlement system of DTC until maturity or until Broadridge issues the notes in certificated form. DTC will therefore require secondary market trading activity in the notes to settle in immediately available funds. Broadridge can give no assurance as to the effect, if any, of settlement in immediately available funds on trading activity in the notes.

#### Book-Entry; Delivery and Form; Global Notes
The notes will be represented by one or more global notes in definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons. Each global note will be deposited with the trustee as custodian for DTC and registered in the name of a nominee of DTC in New York, New York for the accounts of participants in DTC.

Investors may hold their interests in a global note directly through DTC if they are DTC participants, or indirectly through organizations that are DTC participants. Except in the limited circumstances described below, holders of notes represented by interests in a global note will not be entitled to receive their notes in fully registered certificated form.

DTC has advised as follows: DTC is a limited-purpose trust company organized under New York Banking Law, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Exchange Act. DTC was created to hold securities of institutions that have accounts with DTC ("participants") and to facilitate the clearance and settlement of securities transactions among its participants in such securities through electronic book-entry changes in accounts of the participants, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of securities certificates. DTC's participants include securities brokers and dealers (which may include the initial purchasers), banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. Access to DTC's book-entry system is also available to others such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a participant, whether directly or indirectly.

#### Ownership of Beneficial Interests
Upon the issuance of each global note, DTC will credit, on its book-entry registration and transfer system, the respective principal amount of the individual beneficial interests represented by the global note to the accounts of participants. Ownership of beneficial interests in each global note will be limited to participants or persons that may hold interests through participants. Ownership of beneficial interests in each global note will be shown on, and the transfer of those ownership interests will be effected only through, records maintained by DTC (with respect to participants' interests) and such participants (with respect to the owners of beneficial interests in the global note other than participants).

So long as DTC or its nominee is the registered holder and owner of a global note, DTC or such nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole legal owner of the notes represented by the global note for all purposes under the indenture, the notes and applicable law. Except as set forth below, owners of beneficial interests in a global note will not be entitled to receive certificated notes and will not be considered to be the owners or holders of any notes under the global note. Broadridge understands that under existing industry practice, in the event an owner of a beneficial interest in a global note desires to take any actions that DTC, as the holder of the global note, is entitled to take, DTC would authorize the participants to take such action, and that participants would authorize beneficial owners owning through such participants to take such action or would otherwise act upon the instructions of beneficial owners owning through them. No beneficial owner of an interest in a global note will be able to transfer the interest except in accordance with DTC's applicable procedures, in addition to those provided for under the indenture. Because DTC can only act on behalf of participants, who in turn act on behalf of others, the ability of a person having a beneficial interest in a global note to pledge that interest to persons that do not participate in the DTC system, or otherwise to take actions in respect of that interest, may be impaired by the lack of physical certificate of that interest.

All payments on the notes represented by a global note registered in the name of and held by DTC or its nominee will be made to DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner and holder of the global note.

Broadridge expects that DTC or its nominee, upon receipt of any payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest in respect of a global note, will credit participants' accounts with payments in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in the principal amount of the global note as shown on the records of DTC or its nominee. Broadridge also expects that payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in the global note held through such participants will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices as is now the case with securities held for accounts for customers registered in the names of nominees for such customers. These payments, however, will be the responsibility of such participants and indirect participants, and neither Broadridge, the underwriters, the trustee nor any paying agent will have any responsibility or liability for any

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
aspect of the records relating to, or payments made on account of, beneficial ownership interests in any global note or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests or for any other aspect of the relationship between DTC and its participants or the relationship between such participants and the owners of beneficial interests in the global note.

Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for certificated notes, each global note may not be transferred except as a whole by DTC to a nominee of DTC or by a nominee of DTC to DTC or another nominee of DTC. Transfers between participants in DTC will be effected in the ordinary way in accordance with DTC rules and will be settled in same-day funds.

Broadridge expects that DTC will take any action permitted to be taken by a holder of notes (including the presentation of notes for exchange as described below) only at the direction of one or more participants to whose account the DTC interests in a global note are credited and only in respect of such portion of the aggregate principal amount of the notes as to which such participant or participants has or have given such direction. Although Broadridge expects that DTC will agree to the foregoing procedures in order to facilitate transfers of interests in each global note among participants of DTC, DTC is under no obligation to perform or continue to perform such procedures, and such procedures may be discontinued at any time. Neither Broadridge, the underwriters, nor the trustee will have any responsibility for the performance or nonperformance by DTC or their participants or indirect participants of their respective obligations under the rules and procedures governing their operations.

Certificated securities may be issued in exchange for beneficial interests in the global notes under certain circumstances, including (i) if an event of default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the notes, (ii) if DTC is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as a depositary for the global notes and a successor depositary is not appointed by us within 90 days or (iii) at any time Broadridge determines, in its sole discretion, that the notes or portions thereof issued or issuable in the form of one or more global notes shall no longer be represented by such global note. These certificated notes will be registered in such name or names as DTC shall instruct the trustee. It is expected that such instructions may be based upon directions received by DTC from participants with respect to ownership of beneficial interests in global securities.

The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC's book-entry system has been obtained from sources that Broadridge believes to be reliable, but Broadridge does not take responsibility for its accuracy.

#### Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg
If the depositary for a global security is DTC, you may hold interests in the global notes through Clearstream Banking, S.A., which is referred to as "Clearstream, Luxembourg," or Euroclear Bank SA/NV, as operator of the Euroclear System, which is referred to as "Euroclear," in each case, as a participant in DTC. Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg will hold interests, in each case, on behalf of their participants through customers' securities accounts in the names of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg on the books of their respective depositaries, which in turn will hold such interests in customers' securities in the depositaries' names on DTC's books.

Payments, deliveries, transfers, exchanges, notices and other matters relating to the notes made through Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg must comply with the rules and procedures of those systems. Those systems could change their rules and procedures at any time. Broadridge has no control over those systems or their participants, and it takes no responsibility for their activities. Transactions between participants in Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, on the one hand, and other participants in DTC, on the other hand, would also be subject to DTC's rules and procedures.

Investors will be able to make and receive through Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg payments, deliveries, transfers, exchanges, notices and other transactions involving any securities held through those systems only on days when those systems are open for business. Those systems may not be open for business on days when banks, brokers and other institutions are open for business in the United States.

In addition, because of time-zone differences, U.S. investors who hold their interests in the notes through these systems and wish, on a particular day, to transfer their interests, or to receive or make a payment or delivery or exercise any other right with respect to their interests, may find that the transaction will not be effected until the next business day in Luxembourg or Brussels, as applicable. Thus, investors who wish to exercise rights that expire on a particular day may need to act before the expiration date. In addition, investors

S-27<br>

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
who hold their interests through both DTC and Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg may need to make special arrangements to finance any purchase or sales of their interests between the U.S. and European clearing systems, and those transactions may settle later than transactions within one clearing system.

#### Governing Law
The indenture and the notes will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

#### Regarding the Trustee
U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association is the trustee under the indenture and has also been appointed by Broadridge to act as registrar, transfer agent and paying agent for the notes.

#### CERTAIN UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS
The following is a summary of certain United States federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the notes. This summary deals only with notes held as capital assets (within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code")), by persons who purchase the notes for cash upon original issuance at their "issue price" (the first price at which a substantial amount of the notes is sold for cash to investors, excluding sales to bond houses, brokers or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriter, placement agent or wholesaler). This summary does not address the tax consequences to persons that acquire notes pursuant to this offering and are holders of outstanding indebtedness under the Existing 2026 Notes. We expect, and the remainder of this summary assumes, that a substantial amount of the notes will be acquired for cash by persons other than such holders.

As used herein, a "U.S. holder" means a beneficial owner of the notes that is, for United States federal income tax purposes, any of the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a corporation that is organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an estate the income of which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a trust if it (1) is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and one or more United States persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (2) has a valid election in effect under applicable United States Treasury regulations to be treated as a United States person.

As used herein, the term "non-U.S. holder" means a beneficial owner of the notes that is, for United States federal income tax purposes, an individual, corporation, estate or trust that is not a U.S. holder.

If any entity or arrangement classified as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes holds notes, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. If you are a partnership or a partner in a partnership considering an investment in the notes, you should consult your own tax advisors.

This summary does not represent a detailed description of the United States federal income tax consequences applicable to you if you are a person subject to special tax treatment under the United States federal income tax laws, including, without limitation:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a dealer in securities or currencies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a bank or other financial institution;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a regulated investment company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a real estate investment trust;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a tax-exempt entity;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an insurance company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a person holding the notes as part of a wash sale, hedging, integrated, conversion or constructive sale transaction or a straddle;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a trader in securities that has elected the mark-to-market method of accounting for your securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a person liable for alternative minimum tax;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a partnership or other pass-through entity (or an investor in such an entity);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a person subject to special tax accounting rules as a result of any item of gross income with respect to the notes being taken into account in an applicable financial statement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a U.S. holder whose "functional currency" is not the U.S. dollar;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a U.S. holder that holds notes through a non-U.S. broker or other non-U.S. intermediary;

S-29<br>

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a "controlled foreign corporation";

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a corporation that accumulates earnings to avoid United States federal income tax;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a "passive foreign investment company"; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a United States expatriate.

This summary is based on the Code, United States Treasury regulations, administrative rulings and judicial decisions as of the date hereof. Those authorities may be changed or subject to different interpretations, possibly on a retroactive basis, so as to result in United States federal income tax consequences different from those summarized below. We have not and will not seek any rulings from the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") regarding the matters discussed below. There can be no assurance that the IRS will not take positions concerning the United States federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership or disposition of the notes that are different from those discussed below.

This summary does not represent a detailed description of the United States federal income consequences to you in light of your particular circumstances. This summary also does not address the effects of any United States federal tax consequences other than United States federal income tax consequences (such as estate and gift taxes and the Medicare tax on certain investment income) and does not address state, local or non-United States tax laws. It is not intended to be, and should not be construed to be, legal or tax advice to any particular purchaser of notes.

**If you are considering the purchase of notes, you should consult your own tax advisors concerning the particular United States federal income tax consequences to you of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the notes, as well as the consequences to you arising under other United States federal tax laws and the laws of any other taxing jurisdiction.** 

#### Certain Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders
The following is a summary of certain United States federal income tax consequences that will apply to you if you are a U.S. holder.

***Stated interest. Stated interest on the notes generally will be taxable to you as ordinary income at the time such interest is received or accrued, depending on your regular method of accounting for United States federal income tax purposes. It is expected, and this discussion assumes, that the notes will be issued with less than a de minimis amount of original issue discount for United States federal income tax purposes.***

***Sale, exchange, retirement, redemption or other taxable disposition of notes. Upon a sale, exchange, retirement, redemption or other taxable disposition of a note, you generally will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference, if any, between the amount realized upon such disposition (less any amount attributable to accrued and unpaid stated interest, which will be taxable as interest income to the extent not previously so taxed) and the adjusted tax basis of the note. Your adjusted tax basis in a note will, in general, be your cost for that note. Any such gain or loss will be capital gain or loss. Capital gains of non-corporate holders derived in respect of capital assets held for more than one year are eligible for reduced rates of taxation. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.***

***Information reporting and backup withholding. In general, information reporting requirements will apply to payments of stated interest on the notes and the proceeds of a sale or other taxable disposition (including a retirement or redemption) of a note paid to you, unless you are an exempt recipient such as a corporation. Backup withholding may apply to any payments described in the preceding sentence if you fail to provide a taxpayer identification number and a certification that you are not subject to backup withholding.***

Backup withholding is not an additional tax and any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund or a credit against your United States federal income tax liability *provided* the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

#### Certain Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders
The following is a summary of certain United States federal income tax consequences that will apply to you if you are a non-U.S. holder.

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
***Payments of interest. Subject to the discussion below regarding backup withholding and FATCA, United States federal income or withholding tax will not apply to any payment of interest on the notes, provided that:***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• interest paid on the notes is not effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• you do not actually or constructively own stock representing 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of our voting stock;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• you are not a controlled foreign corporation that is related to us through actual or constructive stock ownership;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• you are not a bank whose receipt of interest on the notes is described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• either (1) you provide your name and address on an IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable form) and certify that you are not a United States person as defined under the Code or (2) you hold your notes through certain foreign intermediaries and satisfy the certification requirements of applicable United States Treasury regulations. Special certification rules apply to non-U.S. holders that are pass-through entities rather than corporations or individuals.

If you cannot satisfy the requirements described above, payments of interest made to you will be subject to a 30% United States federal withholding tax, unless you provide the applicable withholding agent with a properly executed:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable form) certifying an exemption from or reduction in withholding under the benefit of an applicable income tax treaty; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• IRS Form W-8ECI (or other applicable form) certifying that interest paid on the notes is not subject to withholding tax because it is effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States (as discussed below under "— *Effectively connected income* ").

If payments of interest made to you are effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States, such interest will be taxed as described below under "—*Effectively connected income*."

#### Sale, exchange, retirement, redemption or other taxable disposition of notes.
Subject to the discussion below regarding backup withholding and FATCA, any gain recognized on a sale, exchange, retirement, redemption or other taxable disposition of a note generally will not be subject to United States federal income or withholding tax unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the gain is effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States (and, if an applicable income tax treaty so requires, is attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base maintained in the United States), in which case, you will be subject to tax as described below under "— *Effectively connected income* "; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• you are an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of that disposition, and certain other conditions are met, in which case, unless an applicable income tax treaty provides otherwise, you will be subject to a flat 30% United States federal income tax on the gain recognized, which may be offset by certain U.S.-source capital losses.

Any amount received by a non-U.S. holder on the sale, exchange, retirement, redemption or other taxable disposition of a note that is attributable to accrued and unpaid interest will generally be subject to United States federal income tax in accordance with the rules for taxation of interest described above.

***Effectively connected income. If you are engaged in a trade or business in the United States and interest on the notes or gain recognized on a sale, exchange, retirement, redemption or other taxable disposition of a note is effectively connected with the conduct of that trade or business (and, if an applicable income tax treaty so requires, is attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base maintained in the United States), then you generally will be subject to United States federal income tax on that interest or gain on a net income basis in the***

same manner as if you were a United States person as defined under the Code, unless an applicable income tax treaty provides otherwise. In addition, if you are a corporation, you may be subject to a branch profits tax equal to 30% (or a lower applicable income tax treaty rate) of your effectively connected earnings and profits, subject to adjustments.

***Information reporting and backup withholding. Generally, information reporting will apply to the amount of interest paid to you and the amount of tax, if any, withheld with respect to those payments. Copies of the information returns reporting such interest payments and any withholding may also be made available to the tax authorities in the country in which you reside or are established under the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty or agreement.***

In general, you will not be subject to backup withholding with respect to payments of interest on the notes that we make to you, *provided* that the applicable withholding agent has received from you the required certification that you are not a United States person as defined under the Code, described above in the fifth bullet point under "—*Certain Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders—Payments of interest*."

Information reporting and, depending on the circumstances, backup withholding will apply to the proceeds of a sale or other taxable disposition (including a retirement or redemption) of notes within the United States or conducted through certain United States-related financial intermediaries, unless you certify to the applicable withholding agent that you are not a United States person as defined under the Code, or you otherwise establish an exemption.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax and any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund or a credit against your United States federal income tax liability *provided* the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

#### FATCA
Under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (such Sections commonly referred to as "FATCA"), a 30% United States federal withholding tax may apply to any interest paid on the notes to (i) a "foreign financial institution" (as specifically defined in the Code and whether such foreign financial institution is the beneficial owner or an intermediary) which does not provide sufficient documentation, typically on IRS Form W 8BEN-E, evidencing either (x) an exemption from FATCA, or (y) its compliance (or deemed compliance) with FATCA in a manner which avoids withholding, or (ii) a "non-financial foreign entity" (as specifically defined in the Code and whether such non-financial foreign entity is the beneficial owner or an intermediary) which does not provide sufficient documentation, typically on IRS Form W 8BEN-E, evidencing either (x) an exemption from FATCA, or (y) adequate information regarding certain substantial United States beneficial owners of such entity (if any). Foreign financial institutions located in jurisdictions that have an intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing FATCA may be subject to different rules. You should consult your own tax advisors regarding these rules and whether they may be relevant to your purchase, ownership and disposition of the notes.

While withholding under FATCA would have applied also to payments of gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of the notes, proposed Treasury regulations eliminate FATCA withholding on payments of gross proceeds entirely. Taxpayers generally may rely on these proposed Treasury regulations until final Treasury regulations are issued. No such final Treasury regulations have been issued as of the date hereof.

#### CERTAIN ERISA CONSIDERATIONS
The following is a summary of certain considerations associated with the purchase of the notes, or any interest therein, by (i) "employee benefit plans" within the meaning of Section 3(3) of the U.S. Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA") which are subject to Title I of ERISA, (ii) plans, individual retirement accounts and other arrangements that are subject to Section 4975 of the Code, or provisions under any U.S. or non-U.S. federal, state, local or other laws or regulations that are similar to the prohibited transaction and/or prohibited transaction provisions of Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (collectively, "Similar Laws"), and (iii) entities, the underlying assets of which are considered to include the assets of any of the foregoing described in clauses (i) or (ii) pursuant to ERISA or other applicable law (each of the foregoing described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) referred to herein as a "Plan").

#### General Fiduciary Matters
ERISA and the Code impose certain duties on persons who are fiduciaries of a Plan subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (a "Covered Plan") and prohibit certain transactions involving the assets of a Covered Plan and its fiduciaries or other interested parties. Under ERISA and the Code, any person who exercises any discretionary authority or control over the administration of a Covered Plan or the management or disposition of the assets of a Covered Plan, or who renders investment advice for a fee or other compensation to a Covered Plan, is generally considered to be a fiduciary of the Covered Plan.

In considering an investment in the notes, or any interest therein, with a portion of the assets of any Plan, a fiduciary should determine whether the investment is in accordance with the documents and instruments governing the Plan and the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code or any Similar Laws relating to a fiduciary's duties to the Plan including, without limitation, the prudence, diversification, delegation of control, conflicts of interest and prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA, the Code and any other applicable Similar Laws.

#### Prohibited Transaction Issues
Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code prohibit Covered Plans from engaging in specified transactions involving plan assets with persons or entities who are "parties in interest," within the meaning of Section 3(14) of ERISA, or "disqualified persons," within the meaning of Section 4975 of the Code, unless an exemption is available. A party in interest or disqualified person who engages in a non-exempt prohibited transaction may be subject to excise taxes and other penalties and liabilities under ERISA and the Code. In addition, the fiduciary of the Covered Plan that engages in such a non-exempt prohibited transaction may be subject to penalties and liabilities under ERISA and the Code. The acquisition and/or holding of notes, or any interest therein, by a Covered Plan with respect to which the Issuer or the underwriters is considered a party in interest or a disqualified person may constitute or result in a direct or indirect prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Code, unless the investment is acquired and is held in accordance with an applicable statutory, class or individual prohibited transaction exemption. In this regard, the U.S. Department of Labor has issued prohibited transaction class exemptions, or "PTCEs," that may apply to the acquisition and holding of the notes. These class exemptions include, without limitation, PTCE 84-14 respecting transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers, PTCE 90-1 respecting insurance company pooled separate accounts, PTCE 91-38 respecting bank collective investment funds, PTCE 95-60 respecting life insurance company general accounts and PTCE 96-23 respecting transactions determined by in-house asset managers. In addition, Section 408(b)(17) of ERISA and Section 4975(d)(20) of the Code provide relief from the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code for certain transactions, provided that neither the issuer of the securities nor any of its affiliates (directly or indirectly) have or exercise any discretionary authority or control or render any investment advice with respect to the assets of any Covered Plan involved in the transaction and provided further that the Covered Plan pays no more, or receives no less, than adequate consideration in connection with the transaction. Each of the above-noted exemptions contains conditions and limitations on its application. Fiduciaries of Covered Plans considering acquiring and/or holding the notes, or any interest therein, in reliance on these or any other exemption should carefully review the exemption to assure it is applicable. There can be no assurance that all of the conditions of any such exemptions will be satisfied.

S-33<br>

------

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
Because of the foregoing, the notes, or any interest therein, should not be purchased or held by any person investing the assets of any Plan, unless such purchase and holding will not constitute a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Title I of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code or a similar violation of any applicable Similar Laws.

Accordingly, by the acquisition and holding of a note, or any interest therein, each purchaser and each subsequent transferee will be deemed to have represented and warranted that either (i) it is not, and it is not investing on behalf of, a Plan or (ii) the acquisition and holding of the note, or any interest therein, by such purchaser or transferee will not constitute or result in 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, and none of the Issuer or any underwriter is acting as a fiduciary with respect to such acquisition and holding of the note, or any interest therein (unless a statutory or administrative exemption applies (all of the applicable conditions of which are satisfied) or the transaction is not otherwise prohibited).

**THE FOREGOING DISCUSSION IS GENERAL IN NATURE AND IS NOT INTENDED TO BE ALL INCLUSIVE. DUE TO THE COMPLEXITY OF THESE RULES AND THE PENALTIES THAT MAY BE IMPOSED UPON PERSONS INVOLVED IN NON-EXEMPT PROHIBITED TRANSACTIONS, IT IS PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT THAT FIDUCIARIES, OR OTHER PERSONS CONSIDERING PURCHASING THE NOTES, OR ANY INTEREST THEREIN, ON BEHALF OF, OR WITH THE ASSETS OF, ANY PLAN, CONSULT WITH THEIR COUNSEL REGARDING THE POTENTIAL APPLICABILITY OF ERISA, SECTION 4975 OF THE CODE AND ANY SIMILAR LAWS TO SUCH INVESTMENT AND WHETHER AN EXEMPTION WOULD BE APPLICABLE TO THE PURCHASE AND HOLDING OF THE NOTES, OR ANY INTEREST THEREIN.**

The underwriting agreement provides that the obligations of the several underwriters to purchase the notes offered hereby are subject to certain conditions and that the underwriters will purchase all of the notes offered by this prospectus supplement if any of these notes are purchased.

We have been advised by the underwriters that the underwriters propose to offer the notes directly to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement and to certain dealers at such price less a concession not in excess of % of the principal amount of the notes. The underwriters may allow, and such dealers may reallow, a concession not in excess of % of the principal amount of the notes to certain other dealers. After the initial public offering of the notes, the underwriters may change the offering price and other selling terms.

The following table shows the underwriting discount that Broadridge will pay to the underwriters in connection with this offering:

| Per note | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;%  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Total** | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$ |

---

We estimate that our expenses of this offering, excluding the underwriting discount, will be approximately $.

We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and to contribute to payments the underwriters may be required to make in respect of any of these liabilities.

It is expected that delivery of the notes will be made against payment therefor on or about , 2026, which is the business day following the date of pricing of the notes (such settlement cycle being referred to as "T+ "). Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in one business day, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade notes on any date prior to the business day before delivery will be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes initially will settle in T+ to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement and should consult their own advisors.

The notes are a new issue of securities with no established trading market. The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange or quoted on any automated dealer quotation system. The underwriters may make a market in the notes after completion of the offering but will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market-making activities at any time without notice. No assurance can be given as to the liquidity of the trading market for the notes or that an active trading market for the notes will develop. If an active trading market for the notes does not develop, the market price and liquidity of the notes may be adversely affected.

In connection with the offering, the underwriters may engage in transactions that stabilize the market price of the notes. Such transactions consist of bids or purchases to peg, fix or maintain the price of the notes. If the underwriters create a short position in the notes in connection with the offering, i.e., if they sell more notes than

S-35<br>

------

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
are listed on the cover page of this prospectus supplement, the underwriters may reduce that short position by purchasing notes in the open market. Purchases of a security to stabilize the price or to reduce a short position may cause the price of the note to be higher than it might be in the absence of these purchases.

The underwriters also may impose a penalty bid. This occurs when a particular underwriter repays to the underwriters a portion of the underwriting discount received by it because the representatives have repurchased notes sold by or for the account of such underwriters in stabilizing or short covering transactions.

Neither we nor the underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of the notes. In addition, neither we nor the underwriters make any representation that the underwriters will engage in these transactions or that these transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

In the ordinary course of their various business activities, some of the underwriters and their affiliates have engaged in, and may in the future engage in, investment banking and other commercial dealings with Broadridge and its affiliates, for which they have received or may receive customary fees and commissions.

In addition, in the ordinary course of their various business activities, the underwriters and their respective affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers and may at any time hold long and short positions in such securities and instruments. Such investment and securities activities may involve securities and instruments of Broadridge. If any of the underwriters or their affiliates have a lending relationship with us, certain of those underwriters or their affiliates routinely hedge, and certain other of those underwriters may hedge, their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. Typically, these underwriters and their affiliates would hedge such exposure by entering into transactions which consist of either the purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities, including potentially the notes offered hereby. Any such credit default swaps or short positions could adversely affect future trading prices of the notes offered hereby. The underwriters and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments. Certain of the underwriters in this offering and/or their respective affiliates may hold a portion of the Existing 2026 Notes. Any underwriter or affiliate of an underwriter that holds such securities will receive a portion of the proceeds from this offering to the extent such proceeds are used in the repayment of such indebtedness. See "Use of Proceeds."

#### Selling Restrictions

Any resale of the notes must be made in accordance with an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the prospectus requirements of applicable securities laws.

Securities legislation in certain provinces or territories of Canada may provide a purchaser with remedies for rescission or damages if this prospectus supplement (including any amendment thereto) or the accompanying prospectus contains a misrepresentation, provided that the remedies for rescission or damages are exercised by the purchaser within the time limit prescribed by the securities legislation of the purchaser's province or territory. The purchaser should refer to any applicable provisions of the securities legislation of the purchaser's province or territory for particulars of these rights or consult with a legal advisor.

Pursuant to section 3A.3 of National Instrument 33-105 Underwriting Conflicts (NI 33-105), the underwriters are not required to comply with the disclosure requirements of NI 33-105 regarding underwriter conflicts of interest in connection with this offering.

#### European Economic Area
The notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area (the "EEA"). For these

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one or more of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, "MiFID II"); (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 (as amended, the "Insurance Distribution Directive"), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in Directive 2017/1129 (as amended, the "Prospectus Regulation"). Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the "PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling the notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.

This prospectus supplement has been prepared on the basis that any offer of notes in any member state of the EEA will be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Regulation from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of the notes.

Consequently no disclosure document required by the FCA Product Disclosure Sourcebook ("DISC") for offering, selling or distributing the notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the UK has been prepared and therefore offering, selling or distributing the notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the UK may be unlawful under DISC and the Consumer Composite Investments (Designated Activities) Regulations 2024. This prospectus supplement has been prepared on the basis that any offer of notes in the UK will be made pursuant to an exception from the prohibition on offers to the public under the POATRs.

Under this procedure, we may offer and sell debt securities, common stock, preferred stock, depository shares, warrants, stock purchase contracts, and stock purchase units, from time to time in one or more series in one or more offerings.

Amounts payable with respect to any securities may be payable in U.S. dollars or foreign-denominated currency or currency units as specified in the prospectus supplement.

This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities we may offer. Each time we sell securities, we will provide you with a prospectus supplement that contains specific information about the terms of such securities.

#### SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus and the documents incorporated in this prospectus by reference may contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements that are not historical in nature, and which may be identified by the use of words such as "expects," "assumes," "projects," "anticipates," "estimates," "we believe," "could be," "on track," and other words of similar meaning, are forward-looking statements. In particular, statements about our financial guidance and our three-year objectives are forward-looking statements.

These statements are based on management's expectations and assumptions and are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed. These risks and uncertainties include those risk factors described and discussed in Part I, "Item 1A. Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2025 (the "2025 Annual Report"), as they may be updated in any future reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this prospectus and are expressly qualified in their entirety by reference to the factors discussed in the 2025 Annual Report.

These risks include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in laws and regulations affecting Broadridge's clients or the services provided by Broadridge;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Broadridge's reliance on a relatively small number of clients, the continued financial health of those clients, and the continued use by such clients of Broadridge's services with favorable pricing terms;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a material security breach or cybersecurity attack affecting the information of Broadridge's clients;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• declines in participation and activity in the securities markets;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the failure of Broadridge's key service providers to provide the anticipated levels of service;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a disaster or other significant slowdown or failure of Broadridge's systems or error in the performance of Broadridge's services;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• overall market, economic and geopolitical conditions and their impact on the securities markets;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the success of Broadridge in retaining and selling additional services to its existing clients and in obtaining new clients;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Broadridge's failure to keep pace with changes in technology and demands of its clients;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• competitive conditions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Broadridge's ability to attract and retain key personnel; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the impact of new acquisitions and divestitures.

There may be other factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements. We can give no assurances that any of the events anticipated by the forward-looking statements will occur or, if any of them do, what impact they will have on our results of operations and financial condition.

Broadridge disclaims any obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, other than as required by law.

#### DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES
*References to "Broadridge" in this section of this prospectus are, unless the context otherwise indicates, only to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. and not to any of its subsidiaries.* 

We may offer debt securities in one or more series, which may be senior debt securities or subordinated debt securities and which may be convertible into another security.

The debt securities will be direct obligations of Broadridge and, if senior, will rank equally and ratably in right of payment with other indebtedness of Broadridge that is not subordinated. Unless otherwise specified in an accompanying prospectus supplement, our debt securities will be issued in one or more series under an indenture (the "base indenture" and together, with any applicable supplemental indenture thereto, the "indenture"), to be entered into by and between us and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee, a form of which is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

The discussion of the material provisions of the indenture and the debt securities set forth below and the discussion of the material terms of a particular series of debt securities set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement are subject to and are qualified in their entirety by reference to all of the provisions of the indenture, which provisions of the indenture (including defined terms) are incorporated in this description of debt securities by reference.

The indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of debt securities that may be issued under it. Unless otherwise provided in the terms of a series of debt securities, a series may be reopened, without notice to or consent of any holder of outstanding debt securities, for issuances of additional debt securities of that series. The terms of each series of debt securities will be established by or pursuant to a resolution of our board of directors and set forth or determined in the manner provided in an officer's certificate or by a supplemental indenture. The following description of debt securities summarizes certain general terms and provisions of the series of debt securities to which any prospectus supplement may relate. The particular terms of each series of debt securities offered by a prospectus supplement or prospectus supplements will be described in the prospectus supplement or prospectus supplements relating to that series and such particular terms may be in addition to, or different than, the general terms and provisions described herein, in each case, as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement or prospectus supplements.

Unless otherwise indicated, currency amounts in this prospectus and any prospectus supplement are stated in United States dollars.

#### General
We will set forth in a prospectus supplement, to the extent required, the following terms of the series of debt securities in respect of which the prospectus supplement is delivered:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the issue price (expressed as a percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the debt securities) at which the debt securities will be issued;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the title of the series of the debt securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any limit on the aggregate principal amount of the debt securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any applicable subordination provisions for any subordinated debt securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the issue date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• whether the debt securities will be issued in the form of definitive debt securities or global debt securities and, if issued in the form of global debt securities, the identity of the depositary for such global debt security or debt securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the date or dates on which we will make principal payments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the rate or rates at which the debt securities will bear interest or, if applicable, the method used to determine such rate or rates;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the date or dates from which interest will accrue, the date or dates on which interest will commence and be payable and any record date for the interest payable on any interest payment date;

7<br>

------

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the place or places where principal of and any premium and interest on the debt securities of the series will be payable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• whether the debt securities are convertible or exchangeable into other securities and any related terms and conditions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any optional or mandatory redemption provisions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any events of default in addition to those provided in the indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any other specific terms, rights or limitations of, or restrictions on, the debt securities, and any terms that may be required or advisable under applicable laws or regulations; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any covenants relating to us with respect to the debt securities of a particular series if not set forth in the indenture.

The debt securities will be issuable only in fully registered form, without coupons, or in the form of one or more global debt securities. The debt securities will be issued only in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, unless otherwise specified in the prospectus supplement.

Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, principal of and interest and premium, if any, on the debt securities will be payable at our office or agency maintained for this purpose within New York City, or, at our option, payment of interest on the debt securities may be made by check mailed to the holders of the debt securities at their respective addresses set forth in the register of holders of debt securities. Unless otherwise indicated in the prospectus supplement, the trustee initially will be a paying agent and registrar under the indenture. We may act as paying agent or registrar under the indenture.

Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. If a payment date is not a business day, payment may be made on the next succeeding day that is a business day, and interest will not accrue for the intervening period.

#### Purchase of Debt Securities upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event
If a change of control repurchase event occurs, unless Broadridge has redeemed any applicable series of debt securities, Broadridge will be required to make an offer to each holder of the debt securities of such series to repurchase all or any part (in excess of $2,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000) of that holder's debt securities of such series at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the debt securities of such series repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the debt securities of such series repurchased to, but not including, the date of repurchase. Within 30 days following any change of control repurchase event or, at the option of Broadridge, prior to any change of control, but after the public announcement of the change of control, Broadridge will mail (or electronically deliver) a notice to each holder, with a copy to the trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute the change of control repurchase event and offering to repurchase the debt securities of such series 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 sent. The notice will, if sent prior to the date of consummation of the change of control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on a change of control repurchase event occurring on or prior to the payment date specified in the notice. Broadridge will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other securities laws and regulations to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the debt securities of such series as a result of a change of control repurchase event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the change of control repurchase event provisions of the debt securities of such series, Broadridge will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the change of control repurchase event provisions of the debt securities of such series by virtue of compliance with such securities laws or regulations.

Broadridge will not be required to make an offer to repurchase the debt securities of such series 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 Broadridge and such third party purchases all debt securities of such series properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

The change of control repurchase event feature of the debt securities of such series may in certain circumstances make more difficult or discourage a sale or takeover of Broadridge. Subject to the limitations

8<br>

------

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
discussed below, Broadridge could, in the future, enter into certain transactions, including acquisitions, refinancings or other recapitalizations, that would not constitute a change of control under the indenture, but that could increase the amount of indebtedness outstanding at such time or otherwise affect the capital structure of Broadridge or credit ratings of the debt securities.

For purposes of the foregoing discussion of a repurchase at the option of holders, the following definitions are applicable:

"change of control" means the occurrence of any of the following: (1) the sale, lease, 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 properties or assets of Broadridge and its subsidiaries taken as a whole to any "person" (as that term is used in Section 13(d) and Section 14(d) of the Exchange Act) other than Broadridge or one of its subsidiaries; or (2) Broadridge becomes aware of (by way of a report or any other filing pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, proxy, vote, written notice or otherwise) the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any "person" or "group" (as those terms are used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), other than Broadridge or its subsidiaries, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13(d)(3) and 13(d)(5) of the Exchange Act) of more than 50% of the combined voting power of Broadridge's voting stock or other voting stock into which Broadridge's voting stock is reclassified, consolidated, exchanged or changed, measured by voting power rather than number of shares. A transaction will not be deemed to involve a change of control under clause (2) above if (i) Broadridge becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company and (ii)(A) the direct or indirect holders of the voting stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of the voting stock of Broadridge immediately prior to that transaction or (B) immediately following that transaction, no person (other than one or more holding companies satisfying the requirements of this sentence) is the beneficial owner of more than 50% of the voting stock of such holding company.

"change of control repurchase event" means the occurrence of both a change of control and a ratings event.

"Fitch" means Fitch Ratings, Inc., or any successor to the rating agency business thereof.

"investment grade" means a rating of Baa3 or better by Moody's (or its equivalent under any successor rating categories of Moody's); a rating of BBB- or better by S&P (or its equivalent under any successor rating categories of S&P); a rating of BBB- or better by Fitch (or its equivalent under any successor rating categories of Fitch); and the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any additional rating agency or rating agencies selected by Broadridge.

"Moody's" means Moody's Investors Service, Inc., or any successor to the rating agency business thereof.

"rating agency" means (1) each of Moody's, S&P and Fitch; and (2) if any of Moody's, S&P and Fitch ceases to rate the debt securities of any series or fails to make a rating of the debt securities of any series publicly available for reasons outside of the control of Broadridge, a "nationally recognized statistical rating organization" within the meaning of Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act, selected by Broadridge as a replacement for such rating agency.

"ratings event" means that at any time within 60 days after the earlier of (i) the date of the first public occurrence of a change of control and (ii) the date of public notice of an agreement that, if consummated, would result in a change of control the rating of the notes is lowered by one or more categories (i.e., notches) by at least two of the three rating agencies and the applicable series of debt securities are rated below investment grade by at least two of the three rating agencies on any day during such period (which period will be extended so long as the rating of the debt securities of such series is under publicly announced consideration for a possible downgrade by any of the rating agencies); *provided* that, in each case, any such ratings event is expressly stated by the applicable rating agency to have been the result of the change of control.

"S&P" means S&P Global Ratings, or any successor to the rating agency business thereof.

"voting stock" of any specified person as of any date means the capital stock of such person that is at the time entitled to vote generally in the election of the board of directors of such person.

#### Certain Covenants

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**

#### Limitation on Liens
Broadridge will not, and will not permit any Significant Subsidiary to, create, incur or assume any lien on any Principal Property to secure indebtedness for borrowed money of Broadridge or any Significant Subsidiary, without securing the debt securities of each series equally and ratably with such indebtedness for so long as such indebtedness shall be so secured, subject to certain exceptions. Exceptions include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens existing on the date of the creation of the debt securities of such series;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens on Principal Property of a person at the time it becomes a subsidiary securing only indebtedness of such person; *provided* such indebtedness was not incurred in connection with such person or entity becoming a subsidiary and such liens do not extend to any Principal Property other than those of the person becoming a subsidiary;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens existing on Principal Property created at the time of, or within 18 months after, the acquisition, purchase, lease, improvement or development of such Principal Property to secure all or a portion of the purchase price or lease for, or the costs of improvement or development of, such Principal Property;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens to secure any extension, renewal, refinancing or refunding (or successive extensions, renewals, refinancings or refundings), in whole or in part, of any indebtedness secured by liens referred to herein or liens created in connection with any amendment, consent or waiver relating to such indebtedness, so long as such lien is limited to all or part of substantially the same property which secured the lien extended, renewed or replaced and the amount of indebtedness secured is not increased (other than by the amount equal to any costs and expenses (including any premiums, fees or penalties) incurred in connection with any extension, renewal, refinancing or refunding);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens on Principal Property incurred in permitted sale and leaseback transactions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens in favor of only Broadridge or one or more subsidiaries granted by Broadridge or a subsidiary to secure any obligations owed to Broadridge or a subsidiary of Broadridge;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens on Principal Property of any subsidiary of Broadridge registered as a "broker" or a "dealer" as such terms are defined in Sections 3(a)(4) and (5) of the Exchange Act of 1934 (herein referred to as the "Exchange Act") created or otherwise arising in the ordinary course of such subsidiary's business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens on securities deemed to exist under repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements entered into by Broadridge or any Significant Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens in favor of the trustee granted in accordance with the indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens for taxes, assessments or other governmental charges or levies not yet delinquent by more than 30 days or not yet subject to penalties for nonpayment or that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which Broadridge or any Significant Subsidiary, as applicable, has maintained adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• liens otherwise prohibited by this covenant, securing indebtedness which, together with the value of attributable debt incurred in sale and leaseback transactions permitted under "—Limitation on Sale and Leaseback Transactions" below, do not exceed the greater of (i) 7.5% of Total Assets measured at the date of incurrence of any such lien and (ii) $650 million.

#### Limitation on Sale and Leaseback Transactions
Broadridge will not, and will not permit any Significant Subsidiary to, enter into any arrangement with any third party lender or investor pursuant to which Broadridge or any Significant Subsidiary leases any Principal Property that has been or is to be sold or transferred by Broadridge or the Significant Subsidiary to such third party lender or investor (a "sale and leaseback transaction"), except that a sale and leaseback transaction is permitted if Broadridge or such Significant Subsidiary would be entitled to incur indebtedness secured by a lien on the Principal Property to be leased (without equally and ratably securing the outstanding debt securities of any series) in an amount equal to the present value of the lease payments with respect to the term of the lease remaining on the date as of which the amount is being determined, discounted at the rate of interest set forth or implicit in the terms of the lease, compounded semi-annually (such amount is referred to as the "attributable debt").

10<br>

------

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
In addition, permitted sale and leaseback transactions not subject to the limitation above and the provisions described in "—Limitation on Liens" above include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• temporary leases for a term, including renewals at the option of the lessee, of not more than three years;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• leases between only Broadridge and a subsidiary of Broadridge or only between subsidiaries of Broadridge;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• leases where the proceeds are at least equal to the fair market value (as determined by Broadridge's board of directors) of the property and Broadridge applies within 180 days after the sale of an amount equal to the greater of the net proceeds of the sale or the attributable debt associated with the property to the retirement of long-term secured indebtedness; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• leases of Principal Property executed by the time of, or within 12 months after the latest of, the acquisition, the completion of construction or improvement, or the commencement of commercial operation of the Principal Property.

#### Limitation on Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets
Broadridge may not consolidate or merge with or into another entity, or sell, lease, convey, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property and assets taken as a whole to another entity unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• either (1) Broadridge is the surviving or continuing corporation or (2) the successor entity, if other than Broadridge, is a U.S. corporation, partnership, limited liability company or trust and expressly assumes all of Broadridge's obligations under the debt securities of all series and the indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• immediately after giving effect to the transaction, no event of default (as defined below) has occurred and is continuing; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• certain other conditions are met, including delivery by us to the Trustee of an officer's certificate and opinion of counsel as required by the indenture.

In the case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other conveyance, but not a lease, in a transaction in which there is a successor entity, the successor entity will succeed to, and be substituted for, Broadridge under the indenture and, subject to the terms of the indenture, Broadridge will be released from the obligation to pay principal and interest on the debt securities and all obligations under the indenture.

#### Events of Default
Each of the following is an "event of default" under the indenture with respect to the debt securities of any series:

(1)<br> a failure to pay principal of or premium, if any, on the debt securities of such series when due at its stated maturity date, upon optional redemption or otherwise;

(2)<br> a failure to pay interest on the debt securities of such series when due and payable, continued for 30 days;

(3)<br> certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization involving Broadridge;

(4)<br> a failure to comply with "—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets" covenant described above;

(5)<br> a default in the performance, or breach, of any other covenant, warranty or agreement in the indenture (other than a default or breach pursuant to clause (4) immediately above) for 60 days after a Notice of Default (as defined below) is given to Broadridge; and

11<br>

------

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
(6) (1) a failure to make any payment at maturity, including any applicable grace period, on any indebtedness of Broadridge (other than indebtedness of Broadridge owing to any of its subsidiaries) outstanding in an amount in excess of $200.0 million or its foreign currency equivalent at the time and continuance of this failure to pay or (2) a default on any indebtedness of Broadridge (other than indebtedness owing to any of its subsidiaries), which default results in the acceleration of such indebtedness in an amount in excess of $200.0 million or its foreign currency equivalent at the time without such indebtedness having been discharged or the acceleration having been cured, waived, rescinded or annulled, in the case of clause (1) or (2) above; provided, however, that if any failure, default or acceleration referred to in clauses (1) or (2) above ceases or is cured, waived, rescinded or annulled, then the event of default under the indenture will be deemed cured. 

No event of default with respect to a single series of debt securities issued under the indenture necessarily constitutes an event of default with respect to any other series of debt securities.

A default under clause (4) above is not an event of default until the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of such series notify Broadridge of the default and Broadridge does not cure such default within the time specified after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify the default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a "Notice of Default."

Broadridge shall deliver to the trustee, within 30 days after the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an officer's certificate of any event that with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both would become an event of default, its status and what action Broadridge is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

If an event of default (other than an event of default resulting from certain events involving bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization with respect to Broadridge) shall have occurred and be continuing, the trustee or the registered holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of such series may declare, by notice to Broadridge in writing (and to the trustee, if given by the holders of the debt securities) specifying the event of default, to be immediately due and payable the principal amount of all the outstanding debt securities of such series, plus accrued but unpaid interest to the date of acceleration. In case an event of default resulting from certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization with respect to Broadridge shall occur, such amount with respect to all the outstanding debt securities of such series shall be due and payable immediately without any declaration or other act on the part of the trustee or the holders of the outstanding debt securities of such series. Unless as otherwise provided herein, after any such acceleration, but before a judgment or decree based on acceleration is obtained by the trustee, the registered holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of outstanding debt securities of such series then outstanding may, under certain circumstances, rescind and annul such acceleration and waive such event of default with respect to the outstanding debt securities of such series if all events of default, other than the nonpayment of accelerated principal, premium or interest with respect to the outstanding debt securities of such series, have been cured or waived as provided in the indenture.

Subject to the provisions of the indenture relating to the duties of the trustee, in case an event of default shall occur and be continuing with respect to a series of debt securities, the trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders of the debt securities of such series, unless such holders shall have offered to the trustee reasonable indemnity or security against any loss, liability or expense. Subject to such provisions for the indemnification of the trustee, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of such series will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the trustee with respect to the debt securities of such series.

No holder of debt securities of any series will have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to the indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any remedy thereunder, unless:

(a)<br> such holder has previously given to the trustee written notice of a continuing event of default;

(b) the registered holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the debt securities of such series then outstanding have made written request and offered reasonable indemnity to the trustee to institute such proceeding as trustee; and

12<br>

------

(c) the trustee shall not have received from the registered holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the debt securities of such series then outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request and shall have failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days. 

However, such limitations do not apply to a suit instituted by a holder of any debt securities for enforcement of payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, or interest on, such debt securities on or after the respective due dates expressed in such debt securities.

The indenture requires Broadridge to furnish to the trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, a statement of an officer regarding compliance with the indenture. Upon becoming aware of any default or event of default, Broadridge is required to deliver to the trustee a statement specifying such default or event of default.

#### Defeasance
Broadridge at any time may terminate all its obligations with respect to the debt securities of any series and the indenture (such termination, "legal defeasance"), except for certain obligations, including those respecting the defeasance trust and obligations to register the transfer or exchange of the debt securities of such series, to replace mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen debt securities and to maintain a registrar and paying agent in respect of the debt securities of such series. Broadridge at any time may also terminate its obligations with respect to the debt securities of any series under the covenants described under "—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Liens," "—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Sale and Leaseback Transactions," under clause (5) under "—Events of Default" and under the provisions described under "—Purchase of Debt Securities Upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event," which termination is referred to in this prospectus as "covenant defeasance." Broadridge may exercise its legal defeasance option with respect to any series of debt securities notwithstanding its prior exercise of its covenant defeasance option with respect to such series of debt securities.

If Broadridge exercises its legal defeasance option with respect to the debt securities of any series, payment of the debt securities of such series may not be accelerated because of an event of default with respect thereto. If Broadridge exercises its covenant defeasance option with respect to the debt securities of any series, payment of the debt securities of such series may not be accelerated because of an event of default specified in clauses (5) and (6) under "—Events of Default" with respect to the covenants described under "—Certain Covenants" and Broadridge will no longer be obligated to make an offer under the "—Purchase of Debt Securities Upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event" provision upon the occurrence of a change of control.

The legal defeasance option or the covenant defeasance option with respect to the debt securities of any series may be exercised only if:

(a) Broadridge irrevocably deposits in trust with the trustee money or U.S. government securities or a combination thereof, which through the payment of interest thereon and principal thereof in accordance with their terms, will provide money in an amount sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay principal and interest when due on all the debt securities being defeased to maturity or the Par Call Date, as applicable;

(b) no default or event of default with respect to the debt securities of such series has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a default or event of default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit (and any similar concurrent deposit relating to other indebtedness), and the granting of liens to secure such borrowings);

(c)<br> in the case of the legal defeasance option, Broadridge delivers to the trustee an opinion of counsel stating that:

(1)<br> Broadridge has received from the Internal Revenue Service a ruling; or

(2) since the date of the indenture, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, to the effect, in either case, that and based thereon such opinion of counsel shall confirm that the holders of the debt securities of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same time as would have been the case if such defeasance has not occurred;

(d) in the case of the covenant defeasance option, Broadridge delivers to the trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders of the debt securities of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred; and

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
(e)<br> Broadridge delivers to the trustee an officer's certificate and an opinion of counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance and discharge of the debt securities of any series have been complied with as required by the indenture.

#### Discharge
When (i) Broadridge delivers to the trustee all outstanding debt securities of any series (other than debt securities replaced because of mutilation, loss, destruction or wrongful taking) for cancellation or (ii) all outstanding debt securities of any series have become due and payable, or are by their terms due and payable within one year whether at maturity or are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the trustee, and in the case of clause (ii) Broadridge irrevocably deposits with the trustee funds sufficient to pay at maturity or upon redemption all outstanding debt securities of such series, including interest thereon, and if in either case Broadridge pays all other sums related to the debt securities of such series payable under the indenture by Broadridge, then the indenture shall, subject to certain surviving provisions, cease to be of further effect with respect to such series. The trustee shall acknowledge satisfaction and discharge of the indenture with respect to the debt securities of such series on demand of Broadridge accompanied by an officer's certificate and an opinion of counsel of Broadridge.

#### Governing Law
The indenture and the debt securities will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

#### DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

#### General
The following description of certain terms of our capital stock does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, our certificate of incorporation (the "Certificate of Incorporation"), our amended and restated by-laws (the "By-Laws"), and the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL"). For more information on how you can obtain the Certificate of Incorporation and the By-Laws, see "Where You Can Find More Information."

#### Common Stock
*<u>Shares Outstanding</u>. The Company is authorized to issue up to 650 million shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock").* 

*<u>Dividends</u>. Subject to prior dividend rights of the holders of any shares of preferred stock of the Company ("Preferred Stock"), holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends when, as and if declared by the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") out of funds legally available for that purpose. Delaware law allows a corporation to pay dividends only out of surplus, as determined under Delaware law.* 

*<u>Voting Rights</u>. Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. Holders of shares of Common Stock do not have cumulative voting rights. This means a holder of a single share of Common Stock cannot cast more than one vote for each position to be filled on the Board. It also means the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock entitled to vote in the election of directors can elect all directors standing for election and the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any directors.* 

*<u>Other Rights</u>. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, after the satisfaction in full of the liquidation preferences of holders of any shares of Preferred Stock, holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to ratable distribution of the remaining assets available for distribution to stockholders. The shares of Common Stock are not subject to redemption by operation of a sinking fund or otherwise. Holders of shares of Common Stock are not currently entitled to pre-emptive rights.* 

*<u>Fully Paid</u>. The issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock are fully paid and non-assessable. This means the full purchase price for the outstanding shares of Common Stock has been paid and the holders of such shares will not be assessed any additional amounts for such shares. Any additional shares of Common Stock that the Company may issue in the future will also be fully paid and non-assessable.* 

As of August 1, 2025, there were 117,129,320 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

The prospectus supplement relating to any common stock being offered will include specific terms relating to the offering.

#### Preferred Stock
Under the Certificate of Incorporation, we are authorized to issue up to 25 million shares of preferred stock, having a par value of $0.01 per share. The preferred stock may be issued in one or more series, and the Board is expressly authorized to fix the number of shares constituting such series and the designation of such series, the voting powers (if any) of the shares of such series, and the preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, if any, and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, of the shares of such series. As of August 1, 2025, there were no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.

The prospectus supplement relating to any preferred stock being offered with include specific terms related to the offering.

#### Anti-takeover Effects of Our Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws and Delaware Law
Some provisions of Delaware law, the Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws could make the following more difficult:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• acquisition of the Company by means of a tender offer;

17<br>

------

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• acquisition of the Company by means of a proxy contest or otherwise; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• removal of the Company's incumbent officers and directors.

These provisions, summarized below, are expected to discourage coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids. These provisions are also designed to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of the Company to first negotiate with the Board. The Company believes that the benefits of increased protection give it the potential ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal to acquire or restructure us and outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging those proposals because negotiation of them could result in an improvement of their terms.

*<u>Size of Board and Vacancies</u>* 

The By-Laws provide that the Board will have one or more members, which number will be determined by resolution of the Board. Directors are elected at each annual meeting of stockholders majority of the votes cast by the holders of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote in the election. Any director may be removed at any time, with or without cause, upon the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. Newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the Company's authorized number of directors or any vacancies in the Board resulting from death, resignation, retirement, removal from office or other cause may be filled by the majority vote of the Company's remaining directors in office, or by the sole remaining director, or by a majority vote of the Company's stockholders at a special meeting called for that purpose. If at such special meeting no person nominated to fill the vacancy receives a majority of such votes, then such vacancy will be filled by the majority of remaining directors in office.

*<u>Elimination of Stockholder Action by Written Consent</u>* 

The Certificate of Incorporation eliminates the right of the Company's stockholders to act by written consent. Stockholder action must take place at the annual or a special meeting of the Company's stockholders.

*<u>Stockholder Meetings</u>* 

Under the By-Laws, only the Company's chairman, chief executive officer, the Board and the secretary may call special meetings of the Company's stockholders. Stockholders who in the aggregate beneficially own at least 20% of the voting power of all outstanding shares of Common Stock may call a special meeting of the Company's stockholders through the secretary upon proper written request to the secretary.

*<u>Requirements for Advance Notification of Stockholder Nominations and Proposals</u>* 

The By-Laws establish advance notice procedures with respect to stockholder proposals and nomination of candidates for election as directors other than nominations made by or at the direction of the Board or a committee of the Board.

*<u>Delaware Anti-takeover Law</u>* 

The Company is subject to Section 203 of the DGCL ("Section 203"), an anti-takeover law. In general, Section 203 prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a business combination with an interested stockholder for a period of three years following the date such person became an interested stockholder, unless the business combination or the transaction in which such person became an interested stockholder is approved in a prescribed manner. Generally, a "business combination" includes a merger, asset or stock sale, or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. Generally, an "interested stockholder" is a person that, together with affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years prior to the determination of interested stockholder status did own, 15% or more of a corporation's voting stock. The existence of this provision may have an anti-takeover effect with respect to transactions not approved in advance by the Board, including discouraging attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares of Common Stock.

*<u>No Cumulative Voting</u>* 

Neither the Certificate of Incorporation nor By-Laws provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors.

18<br>

------

*<u>Undesignated Preferred Stock</u>* 

The authorization of the Company's undesignated Preferred Stock makes it possible for the Board to issue Preferred Stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to change control of the Company.

We and any selling securityholder may sell the securities described in this prospectus from time to time in one or more transactions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• to purchasers directly;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• to underwriters for public offering and sale by them;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• through agents;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• through dealers; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• through a combination of any of the foregoing methods of sale.

We and any selling securityholder may sell the securities directly to institutional investors or others who may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act, with respect to any resale of the securities. A prospectus supplement will describe the terms of any sale of securities we or any selling securityholder are offering hereunder. Direct sales may be arranged by a securities broker-dealer or other financial intermediary.

The applicable prospectus supplement will name any underwriter involved in a sale of securities. Underwriters may offer and sell securities at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, or from time to time at market prices or at negotiated prices. Underwriters may be deemed to have received compensation from us or any selling securityholder from sales of securities in the form of underwriting discounts or commissions and may also receive commissions from purchasers of securities for whom they may act as agent. Underwriters may be involved in any "at the market" offering of securities by or on our behalf or on behalf of any selling securityholder.

Underwriters may sell securities to or through dealers, and such dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters and/or commissions (which may be changed from time to time) from the purchasers for whom they may act as agent.

Unless we state otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, the obligations of any underwriters to purchase securities will be subject to certain conditions precedent, and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the securities if any are purchased.

The applicable prospectus supplement will set forth whether or not underwriters may over-allot or effect transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the securities at levels above those that might otherwise prevail in the open market, including, for example, by entering stabilizing bids, effecting syndicate covering transactions or imposing penalty bids.

We will name any agent involved in a sale of securities, as well as any commissions payable by us to such agent, in a prospectus supplement. Unless we state otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, any such agent will be acting on a reasonable efforts basis for the period of its appointment.

If we utilize a dealer in the sale of the securities being offered pursuant to this prospectus, we will sell the securities to the dealer, as principal. The dealer may then resell the securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by the dealer at the time of resale.

Underwriters, dealers and agents participating in a sale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriters as defined in the Securities Act, and any discounts and commissions received by them and any profit realized by them on resale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions, under the Securities Act. We may have agreements with underwriters, dealers and agents to indemnify them against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to reimburse them for certain expenses.

Any person participating in the distribution of securities registered under the registration statement that includes this prospectus will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act, and the applicable SEC rules and regulations, including, among others, Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of our securities by any such person. Furthermore, Regulation M may restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of our securities to engage in market-making activities with respect to our securities. These restrictions may affect the marketability of our securities and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to our securities.
