This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities we may offer. Each time we use this prospectus to offer securities, we will provide a prospectus supplement and, if applicable, a pricing supplement. The prospectus supplement and any applicable pricing supplement will describe the specific amounts, prices and other material terms of the securities being offered at that time. The prospectus supplement and any applicable pricing supplement may also add, update or change the information in this prospectus. You should read this prospectus, the applicable prospectus supplement and any applicable pricing supplement, together with the information contained in the documents referred to under the heading "Where You Can Find More Information." If there is any inconsistency between information in this prospectus and any prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus, you should rely on the information in the prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus.

**We have not authorized anyone to provide any information other than that contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement or in any free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of us or to which we have referred you. We take no responsibility for, and can provide no assurance as to the reliability of, any other information that others may give you. We are not making an offer of these securities or a solicitation of your offer to buy these securities in any state where the offer or solicitation is not permitted or legal. You should not assume that the information contained in or incorporated by reference in this prospectus is accurate or complete as of any date other than the date on the front of this prospectus.** 

Unless otherwise mentioned or unless the context requires otherwise, when used in this prospectus, the terms "we," "our" and "us" refer to The Cigna Group and its consolidated subsidiaries, and the term the "Company" refers to The Cigna Group, not including its consolidated subsidiaries. Unless the context otherwise requires, "including" means including without limitation.

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**

#### CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND RISK FACTORS
This prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are based on The Cigna Group's current expectations and projections about future trends, events and uncertainties. These statements are not historical facts. Forward-looking statements may include, among others, statements concerning future financial or operating performance, including our ability to improve the health and vitality of those we serve; future growth, business strategy, and strategic or operational initiatives; economic, regulatory or competitive environments, particularly with respect to the pace and extent of change in these areas and the impact of developing inflationary and interest rate pressures; financing or capital deployment plans and amounts available for future deployment; our prospects for growth in the coming years; strategic transactions and their expected benefits; and other statements regarding The Cigna Group's future beliefs, expectations, plans, intentions, liquidity, cash flows, financial condition or performance. You may identify forward-looking statements by the use of words such as "believe," "expect," "project," "plan," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate," "predict," "potential," "may," "should," "will" or other words or expressions of similar meaning, although not all forward-looking statements contain such terms.

Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, both known and unknown, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: our ability to achieve our strategic and operational initiatives; our ability to adapt to changes in an evolving and rapidly changing industry; our ability to compete effectively, differentiate our products and services from those of our competitors and maintain or increase market share; price competition, inflation and other pressures that could compress our margins or result in premiums that are insufficient to cover the cost of services delivered to our customers; the potential for actual claims to exceed our estimates related to expected medical claims; our ability to develop and maintain satisfactory relationships with health care payors, physicians, hospitals, other health service providers and with producers and consultants; our ability to maintain relationships with one or more key pharmaceutical manufacturers or if payments made or discounts provided decline; changes in the pharmacy provider marketplace or pharmacy networks; changes in drug pricing or industry pricing benchmarks; our ability to invest in and properly maintain our information technology and other business systems; our ability to prevent or contain effects of a potential cyberattack or other privacy or data security incident; risks related to our use of artificial intelligence and machine learning; political, legal, operational, regulatory, economic and other risks that could affect our multinational operations, including currency exchange rates; risks related to strategic transactions and realization of the expected benefits of such transactions as well as integration or separation difficulties or underperformance relative to expectations, which could lead to an impairment charge; dependence on success of relationships with third parties; risk of significant disruption within our operations or among key suppliers or third parties; potential liability in connection with managing medical practices and operating pharmacies, onsite clinics and other types of medical facilities; the substantial level of government regulation over our business and the potential effects of new laws or regulations or changes in existing laws or regulations; uncertainties surrounding participation in government-sponsored programs and providing services to payors who participate in government-sponsored programs; the outcome of litigation, regulatory audits and investigations; compliance with applicable privacy, security and data laws, regulations and standards; potential failure of our prevention, detection and control systems; unfavorable economic and market conditions, the risk of a recession or other economic downturn and resulting impact on employment metrics, stock market or changes in interest rates; risks related to a downgrade in financial strength ratings of our insurance subsidiaries; the impact of our significant indebtedness and the potential for further indebtedness in the future; and credit risk related to our reinsurers.

This list of important factors is not intended to be exhaustive. The discussions in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, including the "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" sections therein, as such discussions may be updated from time to time in our periodic filings with the SEC incorporated by reference herein, include both expanded discussion of these factors and additional risk factors and uncertainties that could affect the matters discussed in the forward-looking statements. The Cigna Group does not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made, are not guarantees of future performance or results and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict or quantify. The Cigna Group undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**

#### DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES
This prospectus describes certain general terms and provisions of the debt securities. The debt securities will be our direct, unsecured obligations. When we offer to sell a particular series of debt securities, we will describe the specific terms of the debt securities in a supplement to this prospectus. The prospectus supplement will also indicate whether the general terms and provisions described in this prospectus apply to a particular series of debt securities. The debt securities will be issued under one or more base indentures, together with related supplemental indentures or officers' certificates, between us and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as successor to U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, or another trustee named in the prospectus supplement (the "Trustee"), including under the indenture dated as of September 17, 2018, between The Cigna Group and U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee (together with any related supplemental indentures or officers' certificates, the "existing indenture"). We refer herein to each of the existing indenture and any other indenture under which debt securities will be issued pursuant to this prospectus as the "indenture." The terms of the indenture and any debt securities issued thereunder will be set forth in the prospectus supplement relating to such debt securities.

We have summarized some terms of the existing indenture below. We expect that the terms of the indenture, if other than the existing indenture, will be substantially similar to the existing indenture; however, we will describe the specific terms of the debt securities to be issued under the indenture in a supplement to this prospectus. The below summary of the existing indenture is not complete. The existing indenture is incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. You should read the existing indenture for a complete statement of the provisions summarized in this prospectus and for provisions that may be important to you. We sometimes refer below to specific sections of the existing indenture. When we do so, we indicate where you can find the relevant section in the existing indenture by noting the section number in parentheses. When we do refer to specific sections contained in the existing indenture or terms defined in the existing indenture, including important terms, which we capitalize here, we use them in this prospectus in the same way we use them in the existing indenture, and you should refer to the existing indenture itself for detailed, specific, legal descriptions. In this section, "Description of Debt Securities," when we refer to "we," "our" or "us," we refer to The Cigna Group, not including its consolidated subsidiaries. The existing indenture is subject to and governed by the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.

#### Summary of the existing indenture

#### Ranking
The debt securities will be our unsecured and unsubordinated obligations and will rank equally with all of our existing and future senior unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness, and senior in right of payment to all of our future indebtedness that is subordinated in right of payment to the debt securities. The debt securities will effectively rank junior to any of our existing and future secured obligations to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such obligations.

Because a significant part of our operations are conducted through subsidiaries, a significant portion of our cash flow, and consequently, our ability to service debt, including the debt securities, is dependent upon the earnings of our subsidiaries and the transfer of funds by those subsidiaries to us in the form of dividends or other transfers.

In addition, because the debt securities will not be guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries, claims in respect of the debt securities will be structurally subordinated to claims of creditors against our subsidiaries, including policy holders, trade creditors, debtholders, secured creditors, taxing authorities, guarantee holders and any preferred shareholders, except to the extent that we are recognized as a creditor of our subsidiary. Any claims of The Cigna Group as the creditor of its subsidiary would be subordinate to any security interest in the assets of such subsidiary and any indebtedness of such subsidiary senior to that held by us.

In addition to general state law restrictions on payments of dividends and other distributions to shareholders applicable to all corporations, health maintenance organizations and insurance companies, including some of The Cigna Group's direct and indirect subsidiaries, are subject to further state insurance regulations that, among other things, may require those companies to maintain certain levels of equity and restrict the amount of dividends and other distributions that may be paid to The Cigna Group.

#### Terms of the Debt Securities to be Described in the Prospectus Supplement

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the interest rate, if any, and the method for calculating the interest rate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the interest payment dates and the record dates for interest payments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our right, if any, to defer payment of interest and the maximum length of this deferral period;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any mandatory or optional redemption terms or prepayment or sinking fund provisions, including the period or periods, if any, within which, the price or prices at which, and the terms and conditions upon which the debt securities may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at our option or at your option;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the terms and conditions, if any, upon which we may have to repay the debt securities early at your option;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the place where we will pay principal, interest and any premium;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the currency or currencies, if other than the currency of the United States, in which principal, interest and any premium will be paid;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• if other than denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiples of $1,000 thereof, the denominations in which the debt securities will be issued;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• if the debt securities will not be issued in the form of global securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• additional provisions, if any, relating to the discharge of our obligations under the debt securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• whether the amount of payment of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, will be determined with reference to one or more indices;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the portion of the principal amount of the debt securities to be paid upon acceleration of maturity thereof if other than 100%;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the terms and conditions upon which conversion or exchange of the debt securities may be effected, if any, including the initial conversion or exchange price or rate and any adjustments thereto and the period or periods when a conversion or exchange may be effected;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any authenticating or paying agents, registrars or other agents;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the application, if any, of defeasance and covenant defeasance provisions to the debt securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• other specific terms, including any additional events of default, covenants or warranties; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any other terms, which may supplement, modify or delete any provision of the indenture as it applies to that series, including any terms that may be required or advisable under applicable law or regulations or advisable in connection with the marketing of the debt securities. (Section 3.01)

We may from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the holders of any series of debt securities, create and issue further debt securities of any such series ranking equally with, and having the same terms and conditions as, the debt securities of such series in all respects (or in all respects other than the payment of interest accruing prior to the issue date of such further debt securities); provided that if such additional debt securities are not fungible with the initial debt securities of such series for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such additional debt securities will have a separate CUSIP number.

#### Events of Default and Notice Thereof
Unless we tell you otherwise in a prospectus supplement, when we use the term "Event of Default" with respect to debt securities of any series we mean:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we fail to pay principal (including any sinking fund payment) of, or premium (if any) on, any debt security of that series when due;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we fail to pay interest, if any, on any debt security of that series when due and the failure continues for a period of 30 days;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we fail to perform in any material respect any covenant in the existing indenture not specified in the previous two bullet points (other than a covenant included in the existing indenture solely for the benefit of a different series of debt securities) and the failure to perform continues for a period of 90 days after receipt of a specified written notice to us from the Trustee or holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of a particular series; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership or liquidation of The Cigna Group. (Section 5.01)

An Event of Default with respect to debt securities of a particular series may not constitute an Event of Default with respect to debt securities of any other series of debt securities.

If an Event of Default under the existing indenture occurs with respect to the debt securities of any series and is continuing, then the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series may require us to repay immediately the entire principal amount (or, if the debt securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities (as defined in the existing indenture), such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of that series) of all outstanding debt securities of that series; *provided, however*, that under certain circumstances the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of outstanding debt securities of that series may rescind or annul such acceleration and its consequences. (Section 5.02)

The existing indenture contains a provision entitling the Trustee, subject to the duty of the Trustee during a default to act with the required standard of care (Section 6.01), to be indemnified by the holders of debt securities before proceeding to exercise any right or power under that existing indenture at the request of such holders. (Section 6.03) Subject to these provisions in the existing indenture for the indemnification of the Trustee and certain other limitations, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the debt securities of each affected series then Outstanding (as defined in the existing indenture) may 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. (Sections 5.12 and 5.13)

The existing indenture provides that the Trustee may withhold notice to the holders of the debt securities of any default (except in payment of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, if any) if the Trustee determines in good faith that it is in the interest of the holders of the debt securities to do so. (Section 6.02)

The existing indenture provides that holders of the outstanding debt securities of any series may seek to institute a proceeding with respect to the existing indenture or for any remedy thereunder only after:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• such holders previously gave written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding debt securities of any series have made a written request to the Trustee to institute a proceeding;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• such holders have offered an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee to institute a proceeding;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the Trustee shall not have received from the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series a direction inconsistent with such request and shall have failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days. (Section 5.07)

These limitations do not apply, however, to a suit instituted by a holder of a debt security for enforcement of payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such debt security. (Section 5.08)

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
The existing indenture contains a covenant under which we are required to furnish to the Trustee an officers' certificate, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, as to the compliance with all terms, provisions and conditions of the existing indenture, or if we are in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of which we may have knowledge. (Section 10.07)

#### Modification and Waiver
The existing indenture (Section 9.01) provides that we, together with the Trustee, may enter into supplemental indentures without the consent of the holders of debt securities to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• evidence the assumption by another person of our obligations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• add covenants for the benefit of the holders of all or any series of debt securities or surrender any right or power of The Cigna Group under the existing indenture or the debt securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• add any additional Events of Default;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• add or change the existing indenture to permit or facilitate the issuance of debt securities in bearer form or in uncertificated form;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• add to, change or eliminate a provision of the existing indenture or the debt securities if such addition, change or elimination does not apply to a debt security created prior to the execution of such supplemental indenture or modify the rights of a holder of any debt security with respect to such provision;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• secure any debt security or perfect the security interest securing The Cigna Group's obligations in respect of any debt security;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• establish the form or terms of debt securities of any series;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• evidence the acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• add to any provision of the existing indenture to the extent necessary to permit or facilitate defeasance and discharge of any series of debt securities if such action does not adversely affect the interests of the holders of debt securities in any material respect;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• cure any ambiguity or correct any inconsistency in the existing indenture or make other changes, provided that any such action does not adversely affect the interests of the holders of debt securities of any affected series in any material respect;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• provide for the guarantee by any person of any debt security;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• conform the existing indenture or any debt security to any provision of any relevant offering memorandum or prospectus; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• conform the existing indenture to any mandatory provision of law.

Other amendments and modifications of the existing indenture may be made with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of each series of the outstanding debt securities affected by the amendment or modification; *provided, however*, no modification or amendment may, without the consent of the holder of each outstanding debt security affected:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• change the stated maturity of the principal of (or premium, if any) or any installment of principal or interest, if any, on any such debt security;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reduce the principal amount of (or premium, if any) or the interest rate, if any, on any such debt security or the principal amount due upon acceleration of an Original Issue Discount Security;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• change the place or currency of payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or the interest, if any, on any such debt security;

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reduce the percentage of holders of debt securities necessary to modify or amend the existing indenture; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• modify the foregoing requirements or reduce the percentage of outstanding debt securities necessary to waive compliance with certain provisions of the existing indenture or for waiver of certain defaults. (Section 9.02)

6<br>

------

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
The holders of at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may, on behalf of all holders of that series, waive our required compliance with certain restrictive provisions of the existing indenture and may waive any past default under the existing indenture, except a default in the payment of principal, premium or interest or in the performance of certain covenants. (Section 5.13)

#### Limitations on Liens on Common Stock of Designated Subsidiaries
The existing indenture provides that so long as any of the debt securities issued under the existing indenture remains outstanding, we will not, and we will not permit any of our subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, issue, assume, incur or guarantee any indebtedness for borrowed money secured by a mortgage, pledge, lien, security interest or other encumbrance of any nature on any of the common stock of a Designated Subsidiary, which common stock is directly or indirectly owned by us, unless our obligations under the debt securities and, if we so elect, any other of our indebtedness ranking on a parity with, or prior to, the debt securities, shall be secured equally and ratably with, or prior to, such secured indebtedness for borrowed money so long as it is outstanding and is so secured. (Section 10.05)

"Designated Subsidiary" means each of Cigna Holding Company, Connecticut General Life Insurance Company, Evernorth Health, Inc., f/k/a Express Scripts Holding Company, Express Scripts, Inc. and Medco Health Solutions, Inc., so long as it remains a subsidiary, or any subsidiary which is a successor of such Designated Subsidiary. (Section 1.01)

#### Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets
The existing indenture provides that we may not consolidate with or merge with or into any other person (other than in a merger or consolidation in which we are the surviving person) or sell our properties and assets as, or substantially as, an entirety to any person unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the person formed by the consolidation or with or into which we are merged or the person that purchases our properties and assets as, or substantially as, an entirety is a corporation organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State or the District of Columbia, and any such successor or purchaser expressly assumes The Cigna Group's obligations on the debt securities under a supplemental indenture reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• immediately after giving effect to the transaction no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an officers' certificate and opinion of counsel are delivered to the Trustee. (Section 8.01)

Upon compliance with the foregoing provisions, the successor or purchaser will succeed to, and be substituted for, The Cigna Group under the existing indenture with the same effect as if such successor or purchaser had been the original obligor under the debt securities, and thereafter The Cigna Group will be relieved of all obligations and covenants under the existing indenture and the debt securities. (Section 8.02)

#### No Protection in the Event of a Change of Control
Unless otherwise indicated in a prospectus supplement with respect to a particular series of debt securities, the debt securities will not contain an option for the holders of such debt to require us to purchase all or a portion of such debt securities or any other protection in the event we have a change in control or in the event of a highly leveraged transaction (whether or not such transaction results in a change in control).

#### Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance
If we irrevocably deposit, in trust, with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee), sufficient cash and/or specified government obligations (in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants) to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest and any other sums due on the scheduled due date for the debt securities of a particular series, then at our option and subject to certain conditions (including the absence of an Event of Default):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we will be discharged from our obligations with respect to the debt securities of such series (which we refer to in this prospectus as a "legal defeasance"), or

7<br>

------

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we will no longer be under any obligation to comply with the covenants described above under "Limitations on Liens on Common Stock of Designated Subsidiaries" and "Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets," and an Event of Default relating to any failure to comply with such covenants will no longer apply to us (which we refer to in this prospectus as a "covenant defeasance").

If we exercise our legal defeasance option, payment of such debt securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default. If we exercise our covenant defeasance option, payment of such debt securities may not be accelerated by reference to the covenants from which we have been released or pursuant to Events of Default referred to above which are no longer applicable. If we fail to comply with our remaining obligations with respect to such debt securities under the existing indenture after we exercise the covenant defeasance option and such debt securities are declared due and payable because of the occurrence of any Event of Default, the amount of money and government obligations on deposit with the Trustee may be insufficient to pay amounts due on the debt securities of such series at the time of the acceleration resulting from such Event of Default. However, we will remain liable for such payments. (Section 10.06)

Under current United States federal income tax laws, a legal defeasance would be treated as an exchange of the relevant debt securities in which holders of those debt securities might recognize gain or loss. Unless accompanied by other changes in the terms of the debt securities, a covenant defeasance generally should not be treated as a taxable exchange. In order to exercise our defeasance options, we must deliver to the Trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the deposit and related defeasance would not cause the holders of the debt securities to recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes. In the case of legal defeasance, such opinion of counsel must be based on (i) an Internal Revenue Service ruling or (ii) a change in the applicable United States federal income tax law occurring since the date of the existing indenture.

#### Satisfaction and Discharge
The existing indenture provides that upon our request, the existing indenture will cease to be of further effect (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of debt securities expressly provided for therein) as to all outstanding debt securities of any series, and the Trustee, at the expense of us, will execute proper instruments acknowledging such satisfaction and discharge of the existing indenture with respect to such debt securities, when:

1) either (A) we have delivered to the Trustee all debt securities of such series theretofore authenticated and delivered for cancellation (with certain limited exceptions); or (B) all debt securities of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable, will become due and payable at maturity within one year, or are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense of us, and we have irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee funds sufficient to pay at maturity or upon redemption all of the outstanding debt securities of that series; 

2)<br> we have paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by us in respect of such series of debt securities; and

3) we have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for in the existing indenture relating to the satisfaction and discharge of the existing indenture with respect to such series of debt securities have been complied with. (Section 4.01) 

#### No Personal Liability of Incorporators, Stockholders, Officers, Directors, Employees or Agents
The existing indenture provides that no recourse shall be had for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if any, or any debt security, or for any claim based on or in respect of any debt security or the existing indenture or any supplemental indenture, against any incorporator, or against any past, present or future stockholder, officer, director, employee or agent of ours or of any successor person thereof under any law, statute or constitutional provision or by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding or otherwise. Each holder, by accepting the debt securities, waives and releases all such liability.

#### Concerning our Relationship with the Trustee
U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as successor to U.S. Bank National Association, is the Trustee under our existing indenture. We maintain customary banking relationships in the ordinary course of business with the Trustee and its affiliates.

#### Governing Law
The existing indenture is governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflicts of laws principles thereof.

9<br>

------

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**

#### FORM OF DEBT SECURITIES
Each debt security will be represented either by a certificate issued in definitive form to a particular investor or by one or more global securities representing the entire issuance of securities. Certificated securities in definitive form and global securities will be issued in registered form.

Definitive securities name you or your nominee as the owner of the security, and in order to transfer or exchange these securities or to receive payments other than interest or other interim payments, you or your nominee must physically deliver the securities to the Trustee. Global securities name a depositary or its nominee as the owner of the debt securities represented by the global securities.

We may issue the debt securities in the form of one or more fully registered global securities that will be deposited with a depositary or its nominee identified in the applicable prospectus supplement and registered in the name of that depositary or nominee. In those cases, one or more global securities will be issued in a denomination or aggregate denominations equal to the portion of the aggregate principal or face amount of the securities to be represented by global securities. Unless and until it is exchanged in whole for securities in definitive registered form, a global security may not be transferred except as a whole by and among the depositary for the global security, the nominees of the depositary or any successors of the depositary or those nominees.

If not described below, any specific terms of the depositary arrangement with respect to any securities to be represented by a global security will be described in the prospectus supplement relating to those securities. (Sections 2.04 and 3.05) We anticipate that the following provisions will apply to all depositary arrangements.

Ownership of beneficial interests in a global security will be limited to persons, called participants, that have accounts with the depositary.

Upon the issuance of a global security, the depositary will credit, on its book-entry registration and transfer system, the participants' accounts with the respective principal or face amounts of the securities beneficially owned by the participants. Any dealers, underwriters or agents participating in the distribution of the securities will designate the accounts to be credited. Ownership of beneficial interests in a global security will be shown on, and the transfer of ownership interests will be effected only through, records maintained by the depositary, with respect to interests of participants, and on the records of participants, with respect to interests of persons holding through participants. The laws of some states may require that some purchasers of securities take physical delivery of these securities in definitive form. These laws may impair your ability to own, transfer or pledge beneficial interests in global securities.

So long as the depositary, or its nominee, is the registered owner of a global security, that depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of the securities represented by the global security for all purposes under the existing indenture. Except as described below, owners of beneficial interests in a global security will not be entitled to have the securities represented by the global security registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of the securities in definitive form and will not be considered the owners or holders of the securities under the existing indenture. Accordingly, each person owning a beneficial interest in a global security must rely on the procedures of the depositary for that global security and, if that person is not a participant, on the procedures of the participant through which the person owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a holder under the existing indenture. We understand that under existing industry practices, if we request any action of holders or if an owner of a beneficial interest in a global security desires to give or take any action that a holder is entitled to give or take under the existing indenture, the depositary for the global security would authorize the participants holding the relevant beneficial interests to give or take that action, and the participants would authorize beneficial owners owning through them to give or take that action or would otherwise act upon the instructions of beneficial owners holding through them.

Principal (or premium, if any) and interest payments on debt securities represented by a global security registered in the name of a depositary or its nominee will be made to the depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner of the global security. Neither The Cigna Group nor the Trustee nor any agent of The Cigna Group or the Trustee will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in the global security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to those beneficial ownership interests.

10<br>

------

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
We expect that the depositary for any of the securities represented by a global security, upon receipt of any payment of principal, premium, interest or other distribution of underlying securities or other property to holders of that global security, will immediately credit participants' accounts in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in that global security as shown on the records of the depositary. We also expect that payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in a global security held through participants will be governed by standing customer instructions and customary practices, and will be the responsibility of those participants.

If the depositary for any of these securities represented by a global security is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as depositary or ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and a successor depositary registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act is not appointed by us within 90 days, we will issue securities in definitive form in exchange for the global security that had been held by the depositary. In addition, we may at any time and in our sole discretion decide not to have any of the securities represented by one or more global securities. If we make that decision, we will issue securities in definitive form in exchange for the global security or securities representing those securities. Any securities issued in definitive form in exchange for a global security will be registered in the name or names that the depositary gives to the Trustee or relevant agent of ours or theirs. It is expected that the depositary's instructions will be based upon directions received by the depositary from participants with respect to ownership of beneficial interests in the global security that had been held by the depositary.

#### DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

#### Description of Common Stock
The following description of our common stock is based upon our Restated Certificate of Incorporation ("Certificate of Incorporation"), our Amended and Restated By-Laws ("By-Laws") and applicable provisions of law as currently in effect. We have summarized certain portions of the Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws below. This summary is not complete and is qualified by the Certificate of Incorporation and the By-Laws, which are incorporated by reference in the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

Certain provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Certificate of Incorporation and the By-Laws summarized in the following paragraphs may have an anti-takeover effect. This may delay, defer or prevent a tender offer or takeover attempt that a stockholder might consider in its best interests, including those attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for its shares.

The Company is authorized to issue 600,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of which 266,928,075 shares were outstanding at July 25, 2025.

Holders of common stock are entitled to receive such dividends as the board of directors of the Company may from time to time declare. Payment of dividends on the common stock will at all times be subject to, among other things, prior satisfaction of dividend and sinking fund requirements, if any, of any series of preferred stock that may then be outstanding, and the availability of funds to the Company, which in turn may be subject to fixed payment obligations which the Company may incur in the future, and the ability of the Company's insurance subsidiaries to declare and pay dividends under applicable insurance regulatory requirements. No shares of preferred stock are outstanding as of the date of this prospectus.

All directors of the Company currently hold one-year terms. Any director may be removed, with or without cause, at any time, by a majority of the voting power of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company entitled to vote at an election for directors. Holders of common stock have one vote per share and have no cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than 50% of the shares voting for the election of directors can elect 100% of the directors and the holders of the remaining shares are not able to elect any directors. The Company has adopted a majority voting standard for the election of directors in uncontested elections. Under this standard, each director must receive a majority of the votes cast with respect to that director. This means that the number of votes cast "for" a director nominee must exceed the number of votes cast "against" that nominee for the director to be elected. In general, each director agrees to tender, and not withdraw, his or her resignation if he or she does not receive a majority of the votes cast at an annual meeting of shareholders at which such director is a nominee for election. The Company's Corporate Governance Committee will make a recommendation to the Company's board of directors on whether to accept the resignation. The Company's board of directors has discretion to accept or reject the resignation. In contested elections, the voting standard is a plurality of votes cast.

Subject to the rights of creditors and the liquidation preferences of holders of preferred stock, the holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in the remaining assets of the Company in the event of its voluntary or involuntary liquidation or dissolution. Holders of common stock have no preemptive rights. All shares of common stock presently outstanding are, and all such shares to be issued pursuant to this prospectus will be, fully paid and nonassessable. Shares of the Company's common stock are not convertible into shares of any other class of capital stock.

The Certificate of Incorporation grants the Company the right to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision in the Certificate of Incorporation in the manner prescribed by statute. Under Section 242 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, unless the Certificate of Incorporation requires a greater vote, a proposed amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation must be approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding stock entitled to vote thereon and a majority of the outstanding stock of each class entitled to vote as a class. The Company's By-Laws may be adopted, amended or repealed by majority vote of the capital stock of the Company outstanding and entitled to vote thereon, or by the Company's board of directors without any vote of the stockholders. Such provisions could inhibit a change in control in situations that the board of directors determines are not adequate or in the best interests of shareholders, or that do not meet specified fair price criteria and procedural conditions. In some circumstances, some or all shareholders could be denied the opportunity to realize a premium over the then-prevailing market price for the shares.

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**

#### Description of Preferred Stock
The Company's Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $1.00 per share. No shares of preferred stock are outstanding as of the date of this prospectus. The Company's preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series, without shareholder approval, when authorized by the board of directors. Subject to limitations prescribed by law, the board of directors is authorized to determine the voting powers (if any), designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, and qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, for each series of preferred stock that may be issued, and to fix the number of shares of each such series.

We will include the specific terms of each series of the preferred stock being offered in a supplement to this prospectus.

#### Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law
Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law prohibits a defined set of transactions between a Delaware corporation, such as us, and an interested stockholder. An interested stockholder is defined as a person who, together with any affiliates or associates of such person, beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 15% or more of the outstanding voting shares of a Delaware corporation. This provision may prohibit business combinations between an interested stockholder and a corporation for a period of three years after the date the interested stockholder becomes an interested stockholder. The term business combination is broadly defined to include mergers, consolidations, sales or other dispositions of assets having a total value in excess of 10% of the consolidated assets of the corporation, and some other transactions that would increase the interested stockholder's proportionate share ownership in the corporation.

This prohibition is effective unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the business combination is approved by the corporation's board of directors prior to the time the interested stockholder becomes an interested stockholder;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the interested stockholder acquired at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation, other than stock held by directors who are also officers or by qualified employee stock plans, in the transaction in which it becomes an interested stockholder; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the business combination is approved by a majority of the board of directors and by the affirmative vote of two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.

In general, the prohibitions do not apply to business combinations with persons who were shareholders before we became subject to Section 203.

In addition, our Certificate of Incorporation provides that, subject to certain limited exceptions, a business combination with or upon a proposal by a related person (as defined therein) requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of our common stock and preferred stock entitled to vote, voting together as a single class. Such affirmative votes shall be required notwithstanding the fact that no vote may be required, or that a lesser percentage may be specified, by law or our board of directors.

#### Special By-Laws Provisions
Under our By-Laws, vacancies and newly-created directorships resulting from any increase in the size of our board may be filled by our board, even if the directors then on the board do not constitute a quorum or only one director is left in office. These provisions, together with the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control or the removal of existing management, of deterring potential acquirors from making an offer to our shareholders and of limiting any opportunity to realize premiums over the then-prevailing market prices for our common stock in connection therewith. This could be the case notwithstanding that a majority of our shareholders might benefit from such a change in control or offer.

#### Transfer Agent and Registrar
Computershare Inc. serves as the registrar and transfer agent for the common stock.

#### Stock Exchange Listing
Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the trading symbol "CI".

#### DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS
We may issue warrants to purchase our debt or equity securities or securities of third parties or other rights, including rights to receive payment in cash or securities based on the value, rate or price of one or more specified commodities, currencies, securities or indices, or any combination of the foregoing. Warrants may be issued independently or together with any other securities and may be attached to, or separate from, such securities. Each series of warrants will be issued under a separate warrant agreement to be entered into between us and a warrant agent. The terms of any warrants to be issued and a description of the material provisions of the applicable warrant agreement will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

#### DESCRIPTION OF PURCHASE CONTRACTS
We may issue purchase contracts for the purchase or sale of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• debt or equity securities issued by us or securities of third parties, a basket of such securities, an index or indices of such securities or any combination of the above;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• currencies; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• commodities.

Each purchase contract will entitle or obligate the holder thereof to purchase or sell, and obligate us to sell or purchase, on specified dates, such securities, currencies or commodities at a specified purchase price, which may be based on a formula, all as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. We may, however, satisfy our obligations, if any, with respect to any purchase contract by delivering the cash value of such purchase contract or the cash value of the property otherwise deliverable or, in the case of purchase contracts on underlying currencies, by delivering the underlying currencies, as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. The applicable prospectus supplement will also specify the methods by which the holders may purchase or sell such securities, currencies or commodities and any acceleration, cancellation or termination provisions or other provisions relating to the settlement of a purchase contract.

The purchase contracts may require us to make periodic payments to the holders thereof or vice versa, which payments may be deferred to the extent set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, and those payments may be unsecured or prefunded on some basis. The purchase contracts may require the holders thereof to secure their obligations in a specified manner to be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. The purchase contracts may require holders to satisfy their obligations thereunder when the purchase contracts are issued or at settlement. Our obligation to settle any pre-paid purchase contracts on the relevant settlement date may constitute indebtedness.

#### SELLING SECURITY HOLDERS
Selling security holders to be named in a prospectus supplement may, from time to time, offer and sell some or all of our securities held by them pursuant to this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement.

#### PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

#### General
Any of the securities being offered pursuant to this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement may be sold in any one or more of the following ways from time to time:

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

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• to or through underwriters;

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• directly to our shareholders; or

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

We may also issue any of the securities as a dividend or distribution to our shareholders.

In addition, we may enter into derivative transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. If the applicable prospectus supplement indicates, in connection with such a transaction the third parties may, pursuant to this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, sell securities covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement. If so, the third parties may use securities borrowed from us or others to settle such sales and may use securities received from us to close out any related short positions. We may also loan or pledge securities covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement to third parties, who may sell the loaned securities or, in an event of default in the case of a pledge, sell the pledged securities pursuant to this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement.

The distribution of the securities may be effected from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices.

We may solicit offers to purchase directly. Offers to purchase securities also may be solicited by agents designated by us from time to time. Any such agent involved in the offer or sale of the securities in respect of which this prospectus is delivered will be named, and any commissions payable by us to such agent will be set forth, in the applicable prospectus supplement. Unless otherwise indicated in such prospectus supplement, any such agent will be acting on a reasonable best efforts basis for the period of its appointment. Any such agent may be deemed to be an underwriter, as that term is defined in the Securities Act, of the securities so offered and sold.

If securities are sold by means of an underwritten offering, we will execute an underwriting agreement with an underwriter or underwriters at the time an agreement for such sale is reached, and the names of the specific managing underwriter or underwriters, as well as any other underwriters, the respective amounts underwritten and the terms of the transaction, including commissions, discounts and any other compensation of the underwriters and dealers, if any, will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement which will be used by the underwriters to make resales of the securities in respect of which this prospectus is being delivered to the public. If underwriters are utilized in the sale of any securities in respect of which this prospectus is being delivered, such securities will be acquired by the underwriters for their own account and may be resold from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at fixed public offering prices or at varying prices determined by the underwriters at the time of sale. Securities may be offered to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by managing underwriters or directly by one or more underwriters. If any underwriter or underwriters are utilized in the sale of securities, unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, the underwriting agreement will provide that the obligations of the underwriters are subject to certain conditions precedent and that the underwriters with respect to a sale of such securities will be obligated to purchase all such securities if any are purchased.

We may grant to the underwriters options to purchase additional securities, to cover over-allotments, if any, at the initial public offering price (with additional underwriting commissions or discounts), as may be set forth in the prospectus supplement relating thereto. If we grant any over- allotment option, the terms of such over-allotment option will be set forth in the prospectus supplement for such securities.

#### **TABLE OF CONTENTS**
If a dealer is used in the sale of the securities in respect of which this prospectus is delivered, we will sell such securities to the dealer, as principal. The dealer may then resell such securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by such dealer at the time of resale. Any such dealer may be deemed to be an underwriter, as such term is defined in the Securities Act, of the securities so offered and sold. The name of the dealer and their terms of the transaction will be set forth in the prospectus supplement relating thereto.

Offers to purchase securities may be solicited directly by us and the sale thereof may be made by us 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 thereof. We may also offer securities through agents in connection with a distribution to our shareholders of rights to purchase such securities. The terms of any such sales will be described in the prospectus supplement relating thereto.

We may offer our equity securities into an existing trading market on the terms described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Underwriters and dealers who may participate in any at-the-market offerings will be described in the prospectus supplement relating thereto.

Pursuant to any standby underwriting agreement entered into in connection with a subscription rights offering to our shareholders, persons acting as standby underwriters may receive a commitment fee for all securities underlying the subscription rights that the underwriter commits to purchase on a standby basis. Additionally, prior to the expiration date with respect to any subscription rights, any standby underwriters in a subscription rights offering to our shareholders may offer such securities on a when-issued basis, including securities to be acquired through the purchase and exercise of subscription rights, at prices set from time to time by the standby underwriters. After the expiration date with respect to such subscription rights, the underwriters may offer securities of the type underlying the subscription rights, whether acquired pursuant to a standby underwriting agreement, the exercise of the subscription rights or the purchase of such securities in the market, to the public at a price or prices to be determined by the underwriters. The standby underwriters may thus realize profits or losses independent of the underwriting discounts or commissions paid by us. If we do not enter into a standby underwriting arrangement in connection with a subscription rights offering to our shareholders, we may elect to retain a dealer-manager to manage such a subscription rights offering for us. Any such dealer-manager may offer securities of the type underlying the subscription rights acquired or to be acquired pursuant to the purchase and exercise of subscription rights and may thus realize profits or losses independent of any dealer-manager fee paid by us.

Securities may also be offered and sold, if so indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, in connection with a remarketing upon their purchase, in accordance with a redemption or repayment pursuant to their terms, or otherwise, by one or more firms ("remarketing firms") acting as principals for their own accounts or as agents for us. Any remarketing firm will be identified and the terms of its agreement, if any, with us and its compensation will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. Remarketing firms may be deemed to be underwriters, as that term is defined in the Securities Act, in connection with the securities remarketed thereby.

If so indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we may authorize agents, dealers or underwriters to solicit offers by certain institutions to purchase securities from us at the public offering price set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on the date or dates stated in the applicable prospectus supplement. Such delayed delivery contracts will be subject to only those conditions set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. A commission indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement will be paid to underwriters and agents soliciting purchases of securities pursuant to delayed delivery contracts accepted by us.

Agents, underwriters, dealers and remarketing firms may be entitled under relevant agreements with us to indemnification by us against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribution with respect to payments which such agents, underwriters, dealers and remarketing firms may be required to make in respect thereof.

Any underwriter may engage in stabilizing and syndicate covering transactions in accordance with Rule 104 under Regulation M. Rule 104 permits stabilizing bids to purchase the underlying security so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum. The underwriters may over-allot shares of the securities in

17<br>

------

connection with an offering of securities, thereby creating a short position in the underwriters' account. Syndicate covering transactions involve purchases of the securities in the open market after the distribution has been completed in order to cover syndicate short positions. Stabilizing and syndicate covering transactions may cause the price of the securities to be higher than it would otherwise be in the absence of such transactions. These transactions, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time.

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, each series of securities, other than our common stock that is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, will be a new issue and will have no established trading market. We may elect to list any series of securities on an exchange but, unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, we shall not be obligated to do so. In addition, underwriters will not be obligated to make a market in any securities. No assurance can be given as to the liquidity of, or activity in, the trading market for any of the securities.

Agents, underwriters, dealers and remarketing firms may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for, us and our subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business.

The anticipated date of delivery of securities will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to each offer.

#### VALIDITY OF SECURITIES
Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, the validity of our debt securities, common stock, preferred stock, warrants, purchase contracts and units will be passed upon for us by Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, New York, New York.

#### EXPERTS
The financial statements and management's assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting (which is included in Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting) incorporated in this prospectus by reference to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 have been so incorporated in reliance on the report of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, given on the authority of said firm as experts in auditing and accounting.

#### ERISA MATTERS
The Cigna Group and certain of its affiliates may each be considered a "party in interest" within the meaning of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), or a "disqualified person" within the meaning of Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), with respect to many employee benefit plans subject to Title I of ERISA or plans, accounts or other arrangements subject to Section 4975 of the Code or entities deemed to hold the assets of such employee benefit plans, plans, accounts or arrangements (collectively, "Plans"). Prohibited transactions within the meaning of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code may arise, for example, if any securities are acquired by a Plan with respect to which The Cigna Group or any of its affiliates is a service provider, unless such securities are acquired pursuant to an exemption for transactions effected on behalf of such Plan by a "qualified professional asset manager" (commonly known as the "QPAM exemption") or pursuant to any other available statutory or administrative exemption. There can be no assurance that any such exemptions will be available, or that all of the conditions of any such exemptions will be satisfied, with respect to transactions involving the securities. In addition, certain governmental, church and non-U.S. plans are subject to federal, state, local or non-U.S. laws that are similar to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code ("Similar Laws"). Therefore, each purchaser or holder of the securities or any interest therein will be deemed to have represented by its purchase or holding thereof that either (i) it is not and is not using the assets of any Plan or any plan subject to Similar Laws or (ii) its purchase, holding and subsequent disposition of the securities or any interest therein will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or in a violation of Similar Laws.

Any Plan or plan subject to Similar Laws proposing to invest in the securities should consult with its legal counsel. The sale of the securities offered hereunder to any Plan or plan subject to Similar Laws is in no respect a representation by The Cigna Group or any of its affiliates or representatives that such an investment is appropriate for or meets all relevant legal requirements with respect to investments by any such Plan or plan subject to Similar Laws generally or any particular Plan or plan subject to Similar Laws.

Under Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Company is empowered to indemnify its directors and officers in the circumstances therein provided.

Under Article VI of its By-Laws, the Company will indemnify any director or officer of the Company, as well as any other person who is or was a director, officer or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries who serve as directors or officers of any other entity at the request of the Company, who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding (other than an action by or in the right of the Company), against expenses (including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person).

The Company is insured against liabilities which it may incur by reason of Article VI of its By-Laws. In addition, directors and officers of the Company, as well as any other persons who serve as directors or officers of any other entity at the request of the Company, are insured, at the Company's expense, against liabilities which might arise against such persons in any such capacity, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such persons against such liability under the provisions of Article VI.

Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director or officer of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, except for liability of (i) a director or officer for any breach of the director's or officer's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) a director or officer for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) a director for unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases, redemptions or other distributions, (iv) a director or officer for any transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit or (v) an officer in any action by or in the right of the corporation.

The Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, a director or officer shall not be liable to the registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer.

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Filing Fee Tables" or "Calculation of Registration Fee" table, as applicable, in the effective registration statement; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

*provided, however, that the undertakings set forth in paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5) or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii) or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial *bona fide* offering thereof. *Provided*, *however*, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is

II-2<br>

------

part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The undersigned registrant undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial *bona fide* offering thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

The Cigna Group

900 Cottage Grove Road

Bloomfield, Connecticut 06002

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The Cigna Group, a Delaware corporation (the "**Company**") is filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the "**Registration Statement**") for the purpose of registering under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "**Securities Act**"), (a) shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "**Common Stock**") of the Company; (b) shares of preferred stock, par value $1.00 per share (the "**Preferred Stock**") of the Company; (c) the Company's senior debt securities (the "**Debt Securities**"), which may be issued pursuant to an indenture dated as of September 17, 2018, between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as successor to U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the "**Trustee**"); (d) warrants of the Company (the "**Warrants**"), which may be issued under one or more warrant agreements (each, a "**Warrant Agreement**") to be entered into between the Company and the warrant agent to be named therein; (e) purchase contracts (the "**Purchase Contracts**") which may be issued under one or more purchase contract agreements (each, a "**Purchase Contract Agreement**") to be entered into between the Company and the purchase contract agent to be named therein (the "**Purchase Contract Agent**"); and (f) units (the "**Units**") to be issued under one or more unit agreements to be entered into among the Company, a bank or trust company, as unit agent (the "**Unit Agent**"), and the holders from time to time of the Units (each such unit agreement, a "**Unit Agreement**").

We, as your counsel, have examined originals or copies of such documents, corporate records, certificates of public officials and other instruments as we have deemed necessary or advisable for the purpose of rendering this opinion.

In rendering the opinions expressed herein, we have, without independent inquiry or investigation, assumed that (i) all documents submitted to us as originals are authentic and complete, (ii) all documents submitted to us as copies conform to authentic, complete originals, (iii) all documents filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement that have not been executed will conform to the forms thereof, (iv) all signatures on all documents that we reviewed are genuine, (v) all natural persons executing documents had and have the legal capacity to do so, (vi) all statements in certificates of public officials and officers of the Company that we reviewed were and are accurate and (vii) all representations made by the Company as to matters of fact in the documents that we reviewed were and are accurate.

Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the additional assumptions and qualifications set forth below, we advise you that, in our opinion:

1. When the necessary corporate action on the part of the Company has been taken to authorize the issuance and sale of such shares of Common Stock proposed to be sold by the Company, and when such shares of Common Stock are issued and delivered in accordance with the applicable underwriting or other agreement against payment therefor (in excess of par value thereof) or upon conversion or exercise of any security offered under the Registration Statement (the "**Offered Security**"), in accordance with the terms of such Offered Security or the instrument governing such Offered Security providing for such conversion or exercise as approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, for the consideration approved by such Board of Directors (which consideration is not less than the par value of the Common Stock), such shares of Common Stock will be validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable.

2. Upon designation of the relative rights, preferences and limitations of any series of Preferred Stock by the Board of Directors of the Company and the proper filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware of a Certificate of Designation relating to such series of Preferred Stock, all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company will have been taken to authorize the issuance and sale of such series of Preferred Stock proposed to be sold by the Company, and when such shares of Preferred Stock are issued and delivered in accordance with the applicable underwriting or other agreement against payment therefor (in excess of par value thereof), such shares of Preferred Stock will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

3. When the Indenture and any supplemental indenture to be entered into in connection with the issuance of any Debt Securities have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Trustee and the Company; the specific terms of a particular series of Debt Securities have been duly authorized and established in accordance with the Indenture; and such Debt Securities have been duly authorized, executed, authenticated, issued and delivered in accordance with the Indenture and the applicable underwriting or other agreement against payment therefor, such Debt Securities will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally, concepts of reasonableness and equitable principles of general applicability, provided that we express no opinion as to (x) the enforceability of any waiver of rights under any usury or stay law or (y) the effect of fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar provision of applicable law on the conclusions expressed above.

4. When the Warrant Agreement to be entered into in connection with the issuance of any Warrants has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Warrant Agent and the Company; the specific terms of the Warrants have been duly authorized and established in accordance with the Warrant Agreement; and such Warrants have been duly authorized, executed, issued and delivered in accordance with the Warrant Agreement and the applicable underwriting or other agreement against payment therefor, such Warrants will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally, concepts of reasonableness and equitable principles of general applicability.

5. When the Purchase Contract Agreement to be entered into in connection with the issuance of any Purchase Contracts has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Purchase Contract Agent and the Company; the specific terms of the Purchase Contracts have been duly authorized and established in accordance with the Purchase Contract Agreement; and such Purchase Contracts have been duly authorized, executed, issued and delivered in accordance with the Purchase Contract Agreement and the applicable underwriting or other agreement against payment therefor, such Purchase Contracts will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally, concepts of reasonableness and equitable principles of general applicability.

In connection with the opinions expressed above, we have assumed that, at or prior to the time of the delivery of any such security, (i) the Board of Directors of the Company shall have duly established the terms of such security and duly authorized the issuance and sale of such security and such authorization shall not have been modified or rescinded; (ii) the Company is, and shall remain, validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware; (iii) the Registration Statement shall have become effective and such effectiveness shall not have been terminated or rescinded; and (iv) the Indenture, the Debt Securities, the Warrant Agreement, the Purchase Contract Agreement and the Unit Agreement are each valid, binding and enforceable agreements of each party thereto (other than as expressly covered above in respect of the Company); and (v) there shall not have occurred any change in law affecting the validity or enforceability of such security. We have also assumed that (i) the terms of any security whose terms are established subsequent to the date hereof and the issuance, execution, delivery and performance by the Company of any such security (a) require no action by or in respect of, or filing with, any governmental body, agency or official and (b) do not contravene, or constitute a default under, any provision of applicable law or public policy or regulation or any judgment, injunction, order or decree or any agreement or other instrument binding upon the Company and (ii) any Warrant Agreement, Purchase Contract Agreement and Unit Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of New York.

We are members of the Bar of the State of New York and the foregoing opinion is limited to the laws of the State of New York and General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement referred to above and further consent to the reference to our name under the caption "Validity of Securities" in the prospectus, which is a part of the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act.

Very truly yours,

#### Exhibit 1

#### ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION

#### OF
U. S. BANK TRUST COMPANY, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION

For the purpose of organizing an association (the "Association") to perform any lawful activities of national banks, the undersigned enter into the following Articles of Association:

**FIRST.** The title of this Association shall be U. S. Bank Trust Company, National Association.

**SECOND.** The main office of the Association shall be in the city of Portland, county of Multnomah, state of Oregon. The business of the Association will be limited to fiduciary powers and the support of activities incidental to the exercise of those powers. The Association may not expand or alter its business beyond that stated in this article without the prior approval of the Comptroller of the Currency.

**THIRD.** The board of directors of the Association shall consist of not less than five nor more than twenty-five persons, the exact number to be fixed and determined from time to time by resolution of a majority of the full board of directors or by resolution of a majority of the shareholders at any annual or special meeting thereof. Each director shall own common or preferred stock of the Association or of a holding company owning the Association, with an aggregate par, fair market, or equity value of not less than $1,000, as of either (i) the date of purchase, (ii) the date the person became a director, or (iii) the date of that person's most recent election to the board of directors, whichever is more recent. Any combination of common or preferred stock of the Association or holding company may be used.

Any vacancy in the board of directors may be filled by action of a majority of the remaining directors between meetings of shareholders. The board of directors may increase the number of directors up to the maximum permitted by law. Terms of directors, including directors selected to fill vacancies, shall expire at the next regular meeting of shareholders at which directors are elected, unless the directors resign or are removed from office. Despite the expiration of a director's term, the director shall continue to serve until his or her successor is elected and qualified or until there is a decrease in the number of directors and his or her position is eliminated.

Honorary or advisory members of the board of directors, without voting power or power of final decision in matters concerning the business of the Association, may be appointed by resolution of a majority of the full board of directors, or by resolution of shareholders at any annual or special meeting. Honorary or advisory directors shall not be counted to determined the number of directors of the Association or the presence of a quorum in connection with any board action, and shall not be required to own qualifying shares.

------

**FOURTH.** There shall be an annual meeting of the shareholders to elect directors and transact whatever other business may be brought before the meeting. It shall be held at the main office or any other convenient place the board of directors may designate, on the day of each year specified therefor in the Bylaws, or if that day falls on a legal holiday in the state in which the Association is located, on the next following banking day. If no election is held on the day fixed or in the event of a legal holiday on the following banking day, an election may be held on any subsequent day within 60 days of the day fixed, to be designated by the board of directors, or, if the directors fail to fix the day, by shareholders representing two-thirds of the shares issued and outstanding. In all cases, at least 10 days' advance notice of the meeting shall be given to the shareholders by first-class mail.

In all elections of directors, the number of votes each common shareholder may cast will be determined by multiplying the number of shares he or she owns by the number of directors to be elected. Those votes may be cumulated and cast for a single candidate or may be distributed among two or more candidates in the manner selected by the shareholder. On all other questions, each common shareholder shall be entitled to one vote for each share of stock held by him or her.

A director may resign at any time by delivering written notice to the board of directors, its chairperson, or to the Association, which resignation shall be effective when the notice is delivered unless the notice specifies a later effective date.

A director may be removed by the shareholders at a meeting called to remove him or her, when notice of the meeting stating that the purpose or one of the purposes is to remove him or her is provided, if there is a failure to fulfill one of the affirmative requirements for qualification, or for cause; provided, however, that a director may not be removed if the number of votes sufficient to elect him or her under cumulative voting is voted against his or her removal.

**FIFTH.** The authorized amount of capital stock of the Association shall be 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the par value of ten dollars ($10) each; but said capital stock may be increased or decreased from time to time, according to the provisions of the laws of the United States. The Association shall have only one class of capital stock.

No holder of shares of the capital stock of any class of the Association shall have any preemptive or preferential right of subscription to any shares of any class of stock of the Association, whether now or hereafter authorized, or to any obligations convertible into stock of the Association, issued, or sold, nor any right of subscription to any thereof other than such, if any, as the board of directors, in its discretion, may from time to time determine and at such price as the board of directors may from time to time fix.

Transfers of the Association's stock are subject to the prior written approval of a federal depository institution regulatory agency. If no other agency approval is required, the approval of the Comptroller of the Currency must be obtained prior to any such transfers.

Unless otherwise specified in the Articles of Association or required by law, (1) all matters requiring shareholder action, including amendments to the Articles of Association must be approved by shareholders owning a majority voting interest in the outstanding voting stock, and (2) each shareholder shall be entitled to one vote per share.

------

Unless otherwise specified in the Articles of Association or required by law, all shares of voting stock shall be voted together as a class, on any matters requiring shareholder approval.

Unless otherwise provided in the Bylaws, the record date for determining shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote at any meeting is the close of business on the day before the first notice is mailed or otherwise sent to the shareholders, provided that in no event may a record date be more than 70 days before the meeting.

The Association, at any time and from time to time, may authorize and issue debt obligations, whether subordinated, without the approval of the shareholders. Obligations classified as debt, whether subordinated, which may be issued by the Association without the approval of shareholders, do not carry voting rights on any issue, including an increase or decrease in the aggregate number of the securities, or the exchange or reclassification of all or part of securities into securities of another class or series.

**SIXTH.** The board of directors shall appoint one of its members president of this Association and one of its members chairperson of the board and shall have the power to appoint one or more vice presidents, a secretary who shall keep minutes of the directors' and shareholders' meetings and be responsible for authenticating the records of the Association, and such other officers and employees as may be required to transact the business of this Association. A duly appointed officer may appoint one or more officers or assistant officers if authorized by the board of directors in accordance with the Bylaws.

The board of directors shall have the power to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Define the duties of the officers, employees, and agents of the Association.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Delegate the performance of its duties, but not the responsibility for its duties, to the officers, employees, and agents of the Association.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Fix the compensation and enter employment contracts with its officers and employees upon reasonable terms and conditions consistent with applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) Dismiss officers and employees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) Require bonds from officers and employees and to fix the penalty thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) Ratify written policies authorized by the Association's management or committees of the board.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) Regulate the manner any increase or decrease of the capital of the Association shall be made; provided that nothing herein shall restrict the power of shareholders to increase or decrease the capital of the Association in accordance
 with law, and nothing shall raise or lower from two-thirds the percentage required for shareholder approval to increase or reduce the capital.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8) Manage and administer the business and affairs of the Association.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9) Adopt initial Bylaws, not inconsistent with law or the Articles of Association, for managing the business and regulating the affairs of the Association.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(10) Amend or repeal Bylaws, except to the extent that the Articles of Association reserve this power in whole or in part to the shareholders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(11) Make contracts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(12) Generally perform all acts that are legal for a board of directors to perform.

**SEVENTH.** The board of directors shall have the power to change the location of the main office to any authorized branch within the limits of the city of Portland, Oregon, without the approval of the shareholders, or with a vote of shareholders owning two-thirds of the stock of the Association for a location outside such limits and upon receipt of a certificate of approval from the Comptroller of the Currency, to any other location within or outside the limits of the city of Portland, Oregon, but not more than thirty miles beyond such limits. The board of directors shall have the power to establish or change the location of any office or offices of the Association to any other location permitted under applicable law, without approval of shareholders, subject to approval by the Comptroller of the Currency.

**EIGHTH.** The corporate existence of this Association shall continue until termination according to the laws of the United States.

**NINTH.** The board of directors of the Association, or any shareholder owning, in the aggregate, not less than 25 percent of the stock of the Association, may call a special meeting of shareholders at any time. Unless otherwise provided by the Bylaws or the laws of the United States, or waived by shareholders, a notice of the time, place, and purpose of every annual and special meeting of the shareholders shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed at least 10, and no more than 60, days prior to the date of the meeting to each shareholder of record at his/her address as shown upon the books of the Association. Unless otherwise provided by the Bylaws, any action requiring approval of shareholders must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting.

**TENTH.** These Articles of Association may be amended at any regular or special meeting of the shareholders by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the stock of the Association, unless the vote of the holders of a greater amount of stock is required by law, and in that case by the vote of the holders of such greater amount; provided, that the scope of the Association's activities and services may not be expanded without the prior written approval of the Comptroller of the Currency. The Association's board of directors may propose one or more amendments to the Articles of Association for submission to the shareholders.
