2.800% Senior Note due 2020
This Note is one of a duly authorized series of Notes of CVS Health Corporation, a Delaware corporation (such corporation, and its successors and assigns under the Indenture hereinafter referred to, being herein called the Company), designated as its 2.800% Senior Notes due 2020 (hereinafter referred to as the Notes).
(a) | Interest |
The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per annum shown above.
The Company will pay interest on the Notes semi-annually on January 20 and July 20 of each year, commencing January 20, 2016. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or provided for, or, if no interest has been paid or provided for, from July 20, 2015. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate borne by the Notes. If any interest payment date is not a Business Day, then payment of interest will be made on the next succeeding Business Day and no interest will accrue on the amount so payable for the period from such interest payment date to the date payment is made.
(b) | Method of Payment |
The Company will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders thereof at the close of business on the January 5 and July 5 (whether or not a Business Day) immediately preceding the interest payment date even if the Notes are canceled after the record date and on or before the interest payment date. Holders must surrender Notes to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Company will pay principal, premium, if any, and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Holders, or, if no such account is specified, the Company may pay principal and interest by check payable in such money. It may mail an interest check to a Holders registered address.
(c) | Paying Agent and Registrar |
Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., a national banking association (the Trustee), will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may appoint and change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar without notice. The Company or any of its domestically incorporated Wholly Owned Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar.
(d) | Indenture |
The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of August 15, 2006 (the Indenture), between the Company and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. ss.ss. 77aaa-77bbbb) as in effect on the date of the Indenture (the
5
TIA). Terms defined in the Indenture and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Notes are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of those terms.
The Notes are general obligations of the Company initially limited to $2,750,000,000 aggregate principal amount (subject to Section 2.08 of the Indenture). The Company may at any time issue additional Notes under the Indenture in unlimited amounts having the same terms as and treated as a single class with the Notes for all purposes under the Indenture and will vote together as one class with respect to the Notes. The Indenture imposes certain limitations on the incurrence of certain additional indebtedness by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries and the entry into certain sale and leaseback arrangements by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. The Indenture also restricts the ability of the Company to consolidate or merge with or into, or to transfer all or substantially all its assets to, another person.
(e) | Optional Redemption |
Prior to June 20, 2020, the Company, at its option, may at any time redeem all or any portion of the Notes upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days notice, at a redemption price, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes being redeemed that would be due if the Notes matured on June 20, 2020 (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to the redemption date) discounted to the redemption date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the applicable Treasury Yield plus 20 basis points. On or after that date, the Company, at its option, may redeem all or any portion of the Notes upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes to the redemption date. If any redemption date is not a Business Day, then payment of the redemption price and accrued and unpaid interest will be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from such redemption date to the date payment is made.
Comparable Treasury Issue means the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes (assuming, for this purpose, that the Notes matured on June 20, 2020) that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to such remaining term.
Comparable Treasury Price means, with respect to any redemption date, (i) the average of the applicable Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest such applicable Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (ii) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations.
Independent Investment Banker means Barclays Capital Inc. or, if such firm is unwilling or unable to select the applicable Comparable Treasury Issue, an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Company.
6
Reference Treasury Dealer means (i) Barclays Capital Inc. and its successors; provided, however, that if the foregoing shall cease to be a primary United States Government securities dealer in New York City (a Primary Treasury Dealer), the Company shall substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer and (ii) any other Primary Treasury Dealers selected by the Company.
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue for the Notes (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Independent Investment Banker by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third business day preceding such redemption date.
Treasury Yield means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the applicable Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date.
(f) | Notice of Redemption |
Notice of redemption shall be transmitted by the Company (or, at the Companys request, by the Trustee on the Companys behalf) to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed. Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000. If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on all Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the redemption date is deposited with the Paying Agent on or before the redemption date and certain other conditions are satisfied, on and after such date interest ceases to accrue on such Notes (or such portions thereof) called for redemption.
(g) | Special Mandatory Redemption |
On May 20, 2015, CVS Pharmacy, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement) to acquire Omnicare, Inc., a provider of pharmaceuticals and related pharmacy services to long-term care facilities and provider of specialty pharmacy and commercialization services for the bio-pharmaceutical industry (the Omnicare Acquisition). If the Company does not consummate the Omnicare Acquisition on or prior to May 20, 2016, which date will be extended automatically to August 20, 2016 if regulatory approval is the only closing condition under the Merger Agreement on May 20, 2016 that has not been fulfilled and all other closing conditions either have been fulfilled or are then capable of being fulfilled (the Omnicare Outside Date) or if, on or prior to such date, the Merger Agreement is terminated other than as a result of consummating the Omnicare Acquisition, then the Company will be required to redeem all outstanding Notes on the special mandatory redemption date at a redemption price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the special mandatory redemption date. The special mandatory redemption date means the earlier to occur of (1) the 15th day (or if such day is not a business day, the first business day thereafter) after the Omnicare Outside Date, if the Omnicare Acquisition has not been consummated on or prior to the Omnicare Outside Date, or (2) the 15th day (or if such day is not
7
a business day, the first business day thereafter) following the termination of the Merger Agreement other than as a result of consummating the Omnicare Acquisition. Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on notes that are due and payable on interest payment dates falling on or prior to the special mandatory redemption date will be payable on such interest payment dates to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant record dates in accordance with this Note and the Indenture.
The Company will cause the notice of special mandatory redemption to be transmitted, with a copy to the Trustee, within five business days after the occurrence of the event triggering the special mandatory redemption to each holder at its registered address. If funds sufficient to pay the special mandatory redemption price of the outstanding Notes to be redeemed on the special mandatory redemption date are deposited with the Trustee or a Paying Agent on or before such special mandatory redemption date, and certain other conditions are satisfied, on and after such special mandatory redemption date, the outstanding Notes will cease to bear interest.
(h) | Offers to Purchase |
The Indenture provides, as established pursuant to Section 2.03 of the Indenture, that upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event and subject to further limitations contained therein, the Company shall make an offer to purchase outstanding notes in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture.
(i) | Denominations; Transfer; Exchange |
The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Holders of Notes may transfer or exchange Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder of Notes, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements or transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any Notes selected for redemption (except, in the case of a Note to be redeemed in part, the portion of the Note not to be redeemed) or any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or 15 days before an interest payment date.
(j) | Persons Deemed Owners |
The registered Holder of this Note may be treated as the sole owner of such Note for all purposes.
(k) | Unclaimed Money |
Subject to applicable abandoned property law, if money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Company at its request unless an abandoned property law designates another Person. After any such payment, Holders entitled to the money must look only to the Company and not to the Trustee or Paying Agent for payment.
8
(l) | Discharge and Defeasance |
Subject to certain conditions, the Company at any time may terminate some or all of its obligations under the Notes and the Indenture if the Company deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal and interest on the Notes to redemption or maturity, as the case may be.
(m) | Amendment; Waiver |
Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, (i) the Indenture or the Notes may be amended with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount outstanding of the Notes; and (ii) any default or compliance with any provision may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Company and the Trustee may amend the Indenture or the Notes to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency that does not materially and adversely affect the rights of any Holder of a Note, or to comply with Article 5 of the Indenture or to comply with requirements of the SEC in connection with the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA.
(n) | Defaults and Remedies |
If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency are Events of Default which will result in the Notes being due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default.
Holders of Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or the Notes unless it receives indemnity or security satisfactory to it. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Notes notice of any continuing Default (except a Default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding such notice is in the interest of the Holders of Notes.
(o) | Trustee Dealings with the Company |
Subject to certain limitations imposed by the TIA, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed to it by the Company or its Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.
(p) | No Recourse Against Others |
A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company or the Trustee shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations. By accepting a Note, each Holder of a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Notes.
9
