We are offering $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our 4.450% Notes due 2028 (the “2028 notes”), $850,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our 4.750% Notes due 2034 (the “2034 notes”) and $650,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our 5.200% Notes due 2055 (the “2055 notes” and, together with the 2028 notes and the 2034 notes, the “notes”).
The 2028 notes will mature on May 15, 2028, the 2034 notes will mature on February 15, 2034 and the 2055 notes will mature on February 15, 2055. We have the option to redeem all or a portion of the notes at any time prior to maturity at the redemption prices set forth in this prospectus supplement. See “Description of the Notes—Optional Redemption” in this prospectus supplement. We will pay interest on the 2028 notes semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on November 15, 2023. We will pay interest on the 2034 notes semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning on August 15, 2023. We will pay interest on the 2055 notes semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning on August 15, 2023. The notes will be issued only in denominations of $2,000 and $1,000 multiples above that amount. For a more detailed description of the notes, see “Description of the Notes” in this prospectus supplement.
The notes will be our general unsecured obligations and will rank equally in right of payment with our other current and future unsecured and unsubordinated debt, but effectively will be junior to any current and future secured debt to the extent of the assets securing that debt. The notes also effectively will be subordinated to all indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries to the extent of our subsidiaries’ assets. See “Description of the Notes.”
Investing in the notes involves risk. See “Risk Factors” on page S-6 of this prospectus supplement, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and in our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, which are incorporated by reference herein, as may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports that we subsequently file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of the notes or passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
