Item 8.01. OTHER EVENTS.

On February 9, 2026, Tyco Electronics Group S.A. (“TEGSA”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of TE Connectivity plc (“TE Connectivity”), issued $200,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 4.500% Senior Notes due 2031 (the “Additional 2031 Notes”) and $550,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 4.875% Senior Notes due 2036 (the “2036 Notes” and, together with the Additional 2031 Notes, the “Notes”). The Additional 2031 Notes will constitute a further issuance of, form a single series with, have identical terms to (other than the initial offering price and the issue date) and be fully fungible with TEGSA’s outstanding $450,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 4.500% Senior Notes due 2031 issued on May 9, 2025 (the “Exiting 2031 Notes”). The Additional 2031 Notes have the same CUSIP number as the Existing 2031 Notes and will trade interchangeably with the Existing 2031 Notes immediately upon settlement. Upon issuance of the Additional 2031 Notes, the aggregate principal amount outstanding of TEGSA’s 4.500% Senior Notes due 2031 was $650,000,000. The Notes were offered and sold by TEGSA pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-282440) (the “Registration Statement”). The net proceeds from the sale of the Notes were approximately $745.5 million after deducting the underwriters’ discount but before other expenses, and will be used for the repayment of outstanding debt, including the 3.700% Senior Notes due 2026 and the 4.500% Senior Notes due 2026, and general corporate purposes.

The Notes are governed by an amended and restated indenture, dated as of January 31, 2025 (the “Indenture”), among TEGSA, as issuer, TE Connectivity, as parent guarantor, TE Connectivity Switzerland Ltd., as additional guarantor (“Swiss TE”), and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the Fifth Supplemental Indenture governing the Additional 2031 Notes, dated as of February 9, 2026 (the “Fifth Supplemental Indenture”) and the Sixth Supplemental Indenture governing the 2036 Notes, dated as of February 9, 2026 (the “Sixth Supplemental Indenture”), among TEGSA, as issuer, TE Connectivity, as parent guarantor, Swiss TE, as additional guarantor, and the Trustee. The Trustee will receive customary fees in connection therewith. The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed as to payment on an unsecured senior basis by TE Connectivity and Swiss TE (the “Guarantees”). The Notes are TEGSA’s unsecured senior obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of its existing and future senior debt, and senior to any subordinated indebtedness that TEGSA may incur.
