Item 1 Comment:
EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Amendment No. 15 ("Amendment No. 15") to Schedule 13D amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D originally filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on January 16, 1998 (as amended, the "Schedule 13D"), relating to the common shares, par value EUR 0.12 per share (the "Common Shares"), of Aegon Ltd., an exempted company with liability limited by shares organized under the laws of Bermuda (f/k/a Aegon N.V., a public limited company organized in the Netherlands) (the "Issuer"). The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at World Trade Center Schiphol, Schiphol Boulevard 223, 1118 BH Schiphol, The Netherlands. Capitalized terms used herein without definition have the meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D. | ||
| Item 2. | Identity and Background | |
| (a) | Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
Effective October 15, 2026, in connection with the VA Amendment described in Item 4 below, the Reporting Person changed its name from Vereniging Aegon to Vereniging Aegon Americas, as previously disclosed in Amendment No. 13 to the Schedule 13D. Except as set forth herein, the information previously reported in Item 2 is unchanged. | |
| Item 3. | Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration | |
Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
The information set forth in Item 4 below with respect to the Conversion (as defined below) is incorporated herein by reference. | ||
| Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction | |
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
At the extraordinary general meeting of the Issuer held on October 8, 2026 (the "EGM"), the shareholders of the Issuer approved the Resolutions (as defined in Amendment No. 14 to the Schedule 13D).
On October 15, 2026, the VA Split (as defined in Amendment No. 13 to the Schedule 13D) was completed in accordance with the Framework Agreement (as defined in Amendment No. 13 to the Schedule 13D). Following the completion of the VA Split, the amendment of the Reporting Person's articles of association (the "VA Amendment") became effective and the Reporting Person was renamed Vereniging Aegon Americas. The VA Split did not involve any disposition of Common Shares by the Reporting Person, and the Reporting Person retained its interest in the Issuer following the VA Split.
The Interim Bye-Laws took effect upon the completion of the VA Split. Pursuant to the 2026 Voting Undertaking, with effect from, and subject to, the completion of the VA Split: (i) the Issuer acquired the Reporting Person's 327,885,200 Common Shares B and issued 8,197,130 Common Shares to the Reporting Person as consideration therefor, on a 40-for-1 basis (the "Conversion"), following which no Common Shares B remain outstanding and the Reporting Person is no longer entitled to exercise full voting power upon a Special Cause; and (ii) the 1983 Amended Merger Agreement and the Voting Rights Agreement terminated, and the Call Option was extinguished.
On July 1, 2026, the Reporting Person entered into a share repurchase agreement with the Issuer (the "July 2026 Share Repurchase Agreement"), pursuant to which the Reporting Person agreed to participate, pro rata based on its combined holdings of Common Shares and Common Shares B, in the Issuer's EUR 200 million share buyback program that began on July 1, 2026 (as increased to EUR 350 million effective August 24, 2026, the "2026 SBB Program"), for a buyback amount of EUR 37 million. The number of Common Shares repurchased from the Reporting Person is determined based on the daily volume-weighted average price per Common Share on Euronext Amsterdam. Effective August 24, 2026, the Reporting Person entered into an addendum to the July 2026 Share Repurchase Agreement (the "August 2026 Share Repurchase Addendum") to participate in the additional EUR 150 million, for an additional buyback amount of EUR 26 million, resulting in an aggregate buyback amount of EUR 63 million. Between August 16, 2026 and October 15, 2026, the Issuer repurchased an aggregate of 2,995,969 Common Shares from the Reporting Person for an aggregate consideration of EUR 23,555,197.97, transferred in weekly installments. A copy of each such agreement is attached as Exhibit 11 and Exhibit 12, and the foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to them.
The Delaware Redomiciliation remains subject to the satisfaction of the conditions to its completion and is currently expected to be effective on or about January 1, 2028.
The foregoing description of the 2026 Voting Undertaking is qualified in its entirety by reference to the 2026 Voting Undertaking, which was filed as an exhibit to Amendment No. 14 to the Schedule 13D and is incorporated herein by reference. | ||
