Asset Management – Notes Issued

On March 30, 2026, AGM issued $750 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.700% Senior Notes due 2036 (the “2036 Senior Notes”). The 2036 Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.700% per annum and interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 30 and September 30 of each year, commencing on September 30, 2026. The 2036 Senior Notes will mature on March 30, 2036.

The indentures governing the Asset Management notes restrict the ability of AGM, AMH and the guarantors of the notes to incur indebtedness secured by liens on voting stock or profit participating equity interests of their respective subsidiaries, or merge, consolidate or sell, transfer or lease assets. The indentures also provide for customary events of default.

Retirement Services – Notes Issued

AHL Senior Notes – AHL’s senior unsecured notes are callable by AHL at any time. If called prior to a defined period before the scheduled maturity date, typically three or six months, the price is equal to the greater of (1) 100% of the principal and any accrued and unpaid interest and (2) an amount equal to the sum of the present values of remaining scheduled payments, discounted from the scheduled payment date to the redemption date at the treasury rate plus a spread (as defined in the applicable prospectus supplement) and any accrued and unpaid interest.

AHL Subordinated Notes – AHL has fixed-rate reset subordinated notes outstanding, which pay interest at the initially stated fixed rate until the interest rate reset dates, at which point the interest rate resets to the Five-Year U.S. Treasury Rate plus a spread. Reset terms are as defined in the applicable prospectus supplement. AHL may defer interest payments on the subordinated notes for up to five consecutive years.
