The coupon is fixed at 5.625% until the first call date and reset thereafter to a
5-year
mid swap plus a margin of 5.207%.
The securities have been issued at par and include subordination provisions, ranking junior to all other liabilities and senior only to shareholders’ equity. The conditions of the securities contain certain provisions for coupon payment deferral. Although the securities have no stated maturity, Aegon has the right to call the securities for redemption at par for the first time between April 15, 2029 and October 15, 2029 and every reset date (October 15, with five-year intervals) thereafter.

On April 5, 2022 Aegon completed a tender offer buying back EUR 429 million of perp
etual capital securities
, part of the EUR 950 million notes issued in 2004.
The interest rate exposure on some of these securities has been swapped to a SOFR- or EURIBOR- based yield.
The securities have been issued at par. The securities include subordination provisions, ranking junior to all other liabilities and senior only to shareholders’ equity. The conditions of the securities contain certain provisions for coupon payment deferral and, in situations under Aegon’s control, mandatory coupon payment events. Although the securities have no stated maturity, Aegon has the right to call the securities for redemption at par for the first time on the coupon date in the years as specified, or on any coupon payment date thereafter.
