Item 1.01   Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On December 21, 2017, PVH Corp. (the "Company") issued €600 million aggregate principal amount of 3.125% senior notes due 2027 (the "Notes") under an Indenture, dated as of December 21, 2017, among the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association, as trustee, Elavon Financial Services DAC, UK Branch, as Paying Agent and Authenticating Agent, and Elavon Financial Services DAC, as Transfer Agent and Registrar (the "Indenture").  Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on December 15 and June 15 of each year, commencing on June 15, 2018.  The Notes will mature on December 15, 2027.  The Notes are unsecured unsubordinated obligations of the Company and rank equally in right of payment with all of its other existing and future unsecured unsubordinated indebtedness and senior in right of payment to all of the Company's existing and future obligations that are by their terms expressly subordinated or junior in right of payment to the Notes.
Prior to September 15, 2027 (three months prior to the maturity date of the Notes), the Company may redeem the Notes in whole at any time, or in part from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date, plus a "make-whole" premium.  In addition, on or after September 15, 2027 (three months prior to the maturity date of the Notes), the Company may redeem the Notes in whole at any time, or in part from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date.
In the event of certain developments affecting taxation, the Company may at any time at its option redeem, in whole, but not in part, the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on those Notes to, but not including, the date fixed for redemption.
Upon the occurrence of certain change of control events and a ratings downgrade, each holder of Notes may require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to €100,000 or an integral multiple of €1,000 in excess thereof) of such holder's Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof on the date of purchase plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of repurchase.
The Indenture limits the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur liens, enter into certain sale and leaseback transactions and consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of their assets.
The foregoing description of the Indenture does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Indenture, which is attached as Exhibit 4.1 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference.
A copy of this press release relating to the issuance of the Notes is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
Item 2.03   Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
As described in Item 1.01, on December 21, 2017, the Company issued and sold €600 million aggregate principal amount of Notes pursuant to the Indenture.  The Notes were offered in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers in the U.S. pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and to certain persons outside of the U.S. pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of any state, and may not be offered or sold in the U.S. without registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements.  The information in Item 1.01 is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.
