Cintas Corporation No. 2

$400,000,000 3.450% Senior Notes due 2025

$800,000,000 4.000% Senior Notes due 2032

Fully and Unconditionally Guaranteed by

Cintas Corporation

We are offering $400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 3.450% senior notes due 2025, which we refer to as the “2025 notes,” and $800,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.000% senior notes due 2032, which we refer to as the “2032 notes.” We refer to the 2025 notes and the 2032 notes, collectively, as the “notes.”

We will pay interest on the notes on May 1 and November 1 of each year, beginning on November 1, 2022. The 2025 notes will mature on May 1, 2025. The 2032 notes will mature on May 1, 2032. The notes will be issued only in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 above that amount.

We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering to (i) redeem all of our outstanding 3.250% Senior Notes due 2022, which we refer to as the “3.250% notes,” and (ii) repay outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility. We intend to use any remaining net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes.

We have the option to redeem some or all of the notes at any time and from time to time, as described under the heading “Description of the Notes—Optional Redemption.” If a change of control triggering event occurs, we will be required to offer to purchase the notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase. See “Description of the Notes—Offer to Repurchase Upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event.”

The notes will be our senior unsecured obligations and will rank equally with all of our other existing and future senior unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness, but will be effectively junior to any secured indebtedness that we may incur in the future to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. The notes will be unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by Cintas Corporation and certain of its subsidiaries. For a more detailed description of the notes, see “Description of the Notes.”

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission, which we refer to as the “SEC,” nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of the notes or determined if this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

See “Risk Factors” beginning on page S-7 of this prospectus supplement and the risk factors contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2021, which are incorporated by reference herein, for a discussion of certain risks that you should consider in connection with an investment in the notes.

The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. Currently, there is no public market for the notes.

The underwriters expect to deliver the notes offered hereby in book-entry form through The Depository Trust Company on or about May 3, 2022.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in the notes involves risk. Prior to making a decision about investing in the notes, and in consultation with your own financial and legal advisors, you should carefully consider the following risk factors, as well as the risk factors discussed in Cintas Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2021, which are incorporated herein by reference. You should also refer to the other information in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, including Cintas’ consolidated financial statements and the related notes incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement. Additional risks and uncertainties that are not yet identified may also materially harm Cintas’ business, operating results and financial condition.

Risks Related to the Notes

Our existing and future debt may limit cash flow available to invest in the ongoing needs of our business and could prevent us from fulfilling our obligations under our outstanding debt securities, as well as the notes.

As of February 28, 2022, we had total debt of approximately $2.9 billion. We also have the ability under our existing revolving credit facility to incur additional debt. Our level of debt could have important consequences. For example, it could:

Additionally, any failure to meet required payments on our debt, or failure to comply with any covenants in the instruments governing our debt, could result in an event of default under the terms of those instruments. In the event of such default, the holders of such debt could elect to declare all the amounts outstanding under such instruments to be due and payable.

The notes are subject to prior claims of any secured creditors and the creditors of subsidiaries of ours and Cintas Corporation that do not guarantee the notes, and if a default occurs we may not have sufficient funds to fulfill our obligations under the notes.

As of February 28, 2022: (i) Cintas Corporation had no secured debt or senior unsecured debt other than guarantees of our debt; (ii) we had no secured debt and approximately $2.9 billion of unsecured debt; and (iii) Cintas’ subsidiary guarantors and Cintas’ other subsidiaries had no secured debt and no senior unsecured debt, other than, with respect to the subsidiary guarantors, guarantees of our debt. The notes are our unsecured general obligations, ranking equally with our other senior unsecured debt and liabilities but junior to any secured debt to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness and effectively subordinated to the debt and other liabilities of subsidiaries of ours and Cintas Corporation that do not guarantee the notes. The indenture governing the notes permits us, Cintas Corporation and the other subsidiaries of Cintas Corporation to incur secured debt under specified circumstances. If we, Cintas Corporation or the other subsidiaries of Cintas Corporation incur any

S-7

secured debt, our assets and the assets of Cintas Corporation or its other subsidiaries securing such debt will be subject to prior claims by their secured creditors. In the event of our bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization or other winding up, assets that secure debt will be available to pay obligations on the notes only after all debt secured by those assets has been repaid in full. Holders of the notes will participate in our remaining assets ratably with all of our unsecured and unsubordinated creditors, including our trade creditors.

The subsidiaries of ours and Cintas Corporation that do not guarantee the notes are distinct legal entities that have no obligation to pay any amounts due on the notes or to provide us with funds to meet our payment obligations on the notes. Accordingly, the notes are effectively subordinated to the debt and other liabilities of the subsidiaries of ours and Cintas Corporation that do not guarantee the notes.

If we incur any additional obligations that rank equally with the notes, including trade payables, the holders of those obligations will be entitled to share ratably with the holders of the notes in any proceeds distributed upon our insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution or other winding up. This may have the effect of reducing the amount of proceeds paid to you. If there are not sufficient assets remaining to pay all of these creditors, all or a portion of the notes then outstanding would remain unpaid.

There are circumstances other than repayment or discharge of the notes under which the guarantees will be released automatically, without your consent or the consent of the trustee.

Under various circumstances, the guarantees of the notes will be released automatically. The guarantee of a subsidiary guarantor will be automatically released to the extent it is released in connection with a sale or other disposition of the equity interests of such subsidiary guarantor in a transaction not prohibited by the indenture. The indenture also will permit us to, upon request and without the consent of the holders, automatically release one or more of our subsidiaries that is not a significant subsidiary guarantor of the notes from its obligations under the guarantees. If the guarantee of any subsidiary guarantor of Cintas No. 2’s revolving credit facility is released or discharged, other than in connection with a refinancing of such credit facility, or a subsidiary guarantor ceases to be a subsidiary as a result of any foreclosure of any pledge or security interest securing secured indebtedness, such subsidiary’s guarantee of the notes will be automatically released as well. If the guarantee of any subsidiary guarantor is released, no holder of the notes will have a claim as a creditor against that subsidiary, and the indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables and preferred stock, if any, whether secured or unsecured, of that subsidiary will be structurally senior to the claim of any holders of the notes. For a description of all circumstances in which a subsidiary guarantor’s subsidiary guarantee will be automatically released, see “Description of the Notes—Guarantees.”

Because each guarantor’s liability under its guarantees may be reduced to zero, voided or released under certain circumstances, holders of notes may not receive any payments from some or all of the guarantors. Further, a court could void the guarantees under fraudulent transfer laws.

Holders of notes have the benefit of the guarantees of the guarantors. However, each guarantee will contain a provision intended to limit the guarantor’s liability to the maximum amount that it could incur without causing the incurrence of obligations under the notes and its guarantee to be a fraudulent transfer. This provision may not be effective to protect the guarantees from being voided under fraudulent transfer law. Under certain circumstances, a court under federal and state fraudulent conveyance and transfer statutes could void or reduce the obligations under a guarantee or further subordinate it to all other obligations of the guarantor. As a result, a guarantor’s liability under its guarantee could be reduced to zero or to another amount that would significantly reduce the value of the guarantee, depending upon, among other things, the amount of other obligations of such guarantor. In addition, you will lose the benefit of a particular guarantee if it is released under certain circumstances described under “Description of the Notes—Guarantees.”

S-8

The notes do not restrict our or the guarantors’ ability to incur additional debt, repurchase securities or to take other actions that could negatively impact holders of the notes.

We and the guarantors are not restricted under the terms of the notes from incurring additional debt or repurchasing our securities. In addition, the indenture does not contain any covenants that require us or the guarantors to achieve or maintain any minimum financial results relating to our financial position or results of operations. Further, the indenture relating to the notes does not restrict our ability or the ability of Cintas and our subsidiaries to declare and pay dividends or make distributions in respect of capital stock, to purchase, redeem, retire or otherwise acquire or retire for value any subordinated indebtedness or indebtedness incurred pursuant to intercompany debt, or to make investments. Our and the guarantors’ ability to incur additional debt and take a number of other actions that are not limited by the terms of the notes could have the effect of diminishing our ability to make payments on the notes when due. However, in certain circumstances, the covenants contained in the indenture may still adversely impact our ability to conduct our business.

An active trading market for the notes may not develop.

There is no existing market for the notes and we do not intend to apply for listing of the notes on any securities exchange or any automated quotation system. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that a trading market for the notes will ever develop or, if one develops, be maintained. Further, there can be no assurance as to the liquidity of any market that may develop for the notes, your ability to sell your notes or the price at which you will be able to sell your notes. Future trading prices of the notes will depend on many factors, including prevailing interest rates, our financial condition and results of operations, the then-current ratings assigned to the notes and the market for similar debt securities. Any trading market that develops would be affected by many factors independent of and in addition to the foregoing, including:

The underwriters have advised us that they currently intend to make a market in the notes, but they are not obligated to do so and may cease market-making at any time in their sole discretion without notice.

Changes in our credit rating could negatively impact the market price or liquidity of the notes.

Credit rating agencies continually revise their ratings for the companies that they follow, including us. Credit rating agencies also evaluate our industry as a whole and may change their credit ratings for us based on their overall view of our industry. We cannot be sure that credit rating agencies will maintain their ratings on the notes. Actual or anticipated changes or downgrades in our credit ratings, including any announcement that our ratings are under further review for a downgrade, are likely to adversely affect the market value of the notes and could increase our corporate borrowing costs.

An increase in market interest rates could result in a decrease in the value of the notes.

In general, as market interest rates rise, notes bearing interest at a fixed rate decline in value because the premium, if any, over market interest rates will decline. Consequently, if you purchase the notes and market interest rates increase, the market values of your notes may decline. We cannot predict the future level of market interest rates.

We may not be able to repurchase all of the notes upon a change of control triggering event, which would result in a default under the notes.

We will be required to offer to repurchase the notes upon the occurrence of a “Change of Control Triggering Event” as provided in the indenture governing the notes. However, we may not have sufficient funds to repurchase the

S-9

notes in cash at such time. In addition, our ability to repurchase the notes for cash may be limited by law or the terms of other agreements relating to our debt outstanding at the time. The failure to make such repurchase would result in a default under the notes.

We may enter into transactions that would not constitute a change of control that could affect our ability to satisfy our obligations under the notes.

Legal uncertainty regarding what constitutes a change of control and the provisions of the indenture may allow us to enter into transactions, such as acquisitions, refinancings or recapitalizations, that would not constitute a change of control but may increase our outstanding indebtedness or otherwise affect our ability to satisfy our obligations under the notes. The definition of change of control for purposes of the notes includes a phrase relating to the transfer of “all or substantially all” of our assets taken as a whole. Although there is a limited body of case law interpreting the phrase “substantially all,” there is no precise established definition of the phrase under applicable law. Accordingly, your ability to require us to repurchase notes as a result of a transfer of less than all of our assets to another person may be uncertain.

S-10

USE OF PROCEEDS

We expect to receive net proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts but before deducting offering expenses payable by us, of approximately $1,193 million from this offering. We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering to (i) redeem all of our outstanding 3.250% notes and (ii) repay outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility. We intend to use any remaining net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes. Pending final use, we may invest the net proceeds from this offering in short-term marketable securities.

On April 1, 2022, we borrowed $650 million under our revolving credit facility to repay all of our outstanding 2.900% notes. Our revolving credit facility matures on March 23, 2027. As of April 1, 2022, we estimate that outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility bore interest at a variable rate of approximately 1.31% per annum.

On April 1, 2022, we issued a notice of redemption for all $300 million in aggregate principal amount of our outstanding 3.250% notes for settlement on May 2, 2022. The 3.250% notes bear interest at a rate of 3.250% per annum and were scheduled to mature on June 1, 2022.

Certain of the underwriters are, or are a subsidiary or affiliate of, (i) holders of the 3.250% notes and/or (ii) lenders under our revolving credit facility and, accordingly, will receive a portion of the net proceeds of this offering. Accordingly, this offering is being made in compliance with FINRA Rule 5121. See “Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest).”

CAPITALIZATION

The following table sets forth Cintas’ consolidated cash and cash equivalents and capitalization as of February 28, 2022 on an actual basis and as adjusted to give effect to this offering, the borrowing of $650 million under our revolving credit facility on April 1, 2022, the repayment of the 2.900% notes and the anticipated application of the net proceeds from this offering as described under “Use of Proceeds.” The table should be read in conjunction with the more detailed information contained in the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in Cintas Corporation’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended February 28, 2022 incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement.

DESCRIPTION OF OTHER INDEBTEDNESS

Revolving Credit Facility

On March 23, 2022, we entered into a $2,000 million revolving credit facility, which contains a letter of credit sub-facility of up to $300 million and a swing line sub-facility of up to $150 million, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement also allows us to request increases of the commitments under our revolving credit facility or request new term loan facilities of up to $500 million in the aggregate, subject to customary conditions. Cintas, along with certain other of our material domestic subsidiaries, guarantee our obligations under our revolving credit facility.

Interest Rates

The interest rate per annum applicable to loans under our revolving credit facility will be, at our option, equal to either (i) the base rate described in the Credit Agreement as the highest of (A) KeyBank National Association’s prime rate, (B) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% and (C) the one-month rate for adjusted term SOFR loans plus 1.00% or (ii) the relevant SOFR rate for the selected interest rate period, plus, in each case, the applicable margin. The applicable margin for the SOFR rate borrowings is based on our senior unsecured long-term credit ratings from Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s Investor Services and ranges between 70 basis points and 122.5 basis points.

Optional Prepayments

Borrowings under our revolving credit facility generally may be prepaid without penalty, subject to breakage fees relating to the SOFR borrowings.

Covenants

The Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants customary for such financings, including, but not limited to, covenants limiting our ability to:

The Credit Agreement also requires that we maintain (x) a leverage ratio of consolidated indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA of no more than 3.50 to 1.00, which may be increased to 4.00 to 1.00 for a period of time following certain permitted acquisitions, (y) an interest coverage ratio of consolidated EBIT to consolidated interest expense of no less than 3.00 to 1.00 and (z) an aggregate amount of priority debt of no more than 15% of consolidated total capitalization. As of February 28, 2022, we were in compliance with the 2019 Credit Agreement’s financial covenants.

S-14

On April 1, 2022, we borrowed $650 million under our revolving credit facility to repay all of our outstanding 2.900% notes.

Default

The Credit Agreement contains events of default customary for such financings, including, but not limited to:

Cintas Senior Debt Securities

As of February 28, 2022, we had an aggregate principal amount of $2,300 million of debt securities outstanding. The specific amounts, maturities and interest rates of these debt securities are set forth in the following table.

Cintas Corporation Senior Notes

Our 3.250% notes, 3.700% Senior Notes due 2027 and 6.15% Senior Notes due 2036, which we refer to, collectively, as the “Cintas senior notes,” were all issued under the indenture, which we refer to as the “2002 indenture,” dated as of May 28, 2002, between us and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association (as successor to Wachovia Bank, National Association), as trustee. The Cintas senior notes are unsecured obligations unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by Cintas Corporation and certain of its subsidiaries. The 2002 indenture does not directly limit the amount of other debt that may be incurred by us or our subsidiaries. The 2002 indenture restricts our ability to incur certain liens; engage in sale-leaseback transactions; and in the case of us, Cintas and each subsidiary guarantor that is a “significant subsidiary,” merge or consolidate or sell all or substantially all of our or their assets. These existing senior notes have substantially the same covenants, change of control provisions and events of default as provided with respect to the notes.

S-15

G&K Senior Notes

G&K issued its unsecured 3.73% Senior Notes due 2023 and 3.88% Senior Notes due 2025, which we refer to, collectively, as the “G&K senior notes,” via a private placement transaction pursuant to a note purchase agreement, which we refer to as the “note purchase agreement,” dated April 15, 2013, between G&K and the purchasers party thereto. Certain of G&K’s subsidiaries have guaranteed the obligations of G&K under the note purchase agreement. Cintas assumed the G&K senior notes with the acquisition of G&K in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017.

Prepayments

G&K may call all or part (so long as such part exceeds more than 10% of the outstanding principal amount) of the G&K senior notes for redemption upon payment of principal, accrued interest and a make-whole amount. In the event of a change of control of G&K, G&K must make an offer to purchase the G&K senior notes for the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest, but without payment of a make-whole amount. Following certain significant asset sales and subject to certain exceptions, G&K must offer to purchase a ratable portion of the G&K senior notes with the proceeds of significant asset sales.

Covenants

The note purchase agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including, but not limited to, covenants limiting G&K’s (and in some instances its subsidiaries’) ability to:

The note purchase agreement requires that G&K maintain (x) a leverage ratio of consolidated indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA of no more than 3.50 to 1.00, which may be increased to 3.75 to 1.00 for a period of time following certain permitted acquisitions, and (y) an interest coverage ratio of consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest expense of no less than 3.00 to 1.00.

Default

The note purchase agreement contains customary events of default, including, but not limited to:

S-16

DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

Set forth below is a description of the specific terms of the notes. This description supplements, and should be read together with, the description of the general terms and provisions of the debt securities, including the notes, set forth in the accompanying base prospectus under the caption “Description of Senior Debt Securities.” The following description does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the description of senior debt securities in the accompanying prospectus and the indenture. If the description of the notes in this prospectus supplement differs from the description of senior debt securities in the accompanying prospectus, the description of the notes in this prospectus supplement supersedes the description of senior debt securities in the accompanying prospectus.

For purposes of this “Description of the Notes” section, “Cintas” shall mean Cintas Corporation and shall not include Cintas No. 2 or the subsidiary guarantors.

General

The 2025 notes will be issued in an initial aggregate principal amount of $400,000,000 and will mature on May 1, 2025. The 2032 notes will be issued in an initial aggregate principal amount of $800,000,000 and will mature on May 1, 2032. The notes will be issued only in fully registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 above that amount. The notes will not be entitled to any sinking fund.

Interest on the notes will accrue at the applicable rate per annum shown on the cover of this prospectus supplement from May 3, 2022, or from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or provided for, payable semi-annually on May 1 and November 1 of each year, beginning on November 1, 2022, to the persons in whose names the notes are registered in the security register at the close of business on the April 15 or October 15 preceding the relevant interest payment date, except that interest payable at maturity shall be paid to the same persons to whom principal of the notes is payable. Interest will be computed on the notes on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

The indenture does not limit the amount of either series of notes that we may issue. We may from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the registered holders of either series of notes, create and issue additional notes ranking equally and ratably with either series of notes being issued in this offering in all respects (other than the issue price, the date of issuance, the payment of interest accruing prior to the issue date of such additional notes and the first payment of interest following the issue date of such additional notes), provided that such notes must be fungible with the applicable series of notes being issued in this offering for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Any such additional notes shall be consolidated and form a single series with the applicable series of notes being issued in this offering, including for purposes of voting and redemptions.

The notes will be unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, as to payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest by Cintas and the subsidiary guarantors.

Payment and Transfer

Payment of principal of, and interest and premium, if any, on, any notes represented by one or more permanent global notes in definitive, fully registered form will be made to Cede & Co., the nominee for The Depository Trust Company, or DTC, as the registered owner of the global notes by wire transfer of immediately available funds as described below under “—Book-Entry Settlement Procedures and Form.”

Holders of certificated notes must surrender the notes to the paying agent to collect principal and interest payments at maturity. Principal, premium, if any, and interest on certificated notes will be payable at the office of the paying agent maintained for such purpose or, at our option, payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest may be made by check mailed to a holder’s registered address.

S-17

If any interest payment date, redemption date or maturity date would otherwise be a day that is not a business day, the related payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest will be made on the next succeeding business day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the next succeeding business day. As used in this prospectus supplement, the term “business day” means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which banking institutions are authorized or obligated by law, regulation or executive order to close in New York City.

The notes may be presented for registration of transfer or exchange at the office of the registrar for the notes or at any other office or agency maintained by us or the registrar for such purpose. Initially, the trustee will act as registrar for the notes. No service charge will be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of notes, but we may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or other similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith. We are not required to transfer or exchange any note selected for redemption or for a period of 15 days before a selection of notes to be redeemed.

The registered holder of a note will be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.

Optional Redemption

Prior to April 1, 2025 (one month prior to their maturity date), which we refer to as the “2025 Par Call Date,” we may redeem the 2025 notes at our option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of:

plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

On or after the 2025 Par Call Date, we may redeem the 2025 notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2025 notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

Prior to February 1, 2032 (three months prior to their maturity date), which we refer to as the “2032 Par Call Date,” we may redeem the 2032 notes at our option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of:

plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

On or after the 2032 Par Call Date, we may redeem the 2032 notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2032 notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

S-18

For purposes of determining the optional redemption prices, the following definitions are applicable:

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by us in accordance with the following two paragraphs.

The Treasury Rate shall be determined by us after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third business day preceding the redemption date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily) - H.15” (or any successor designation or publication), which we refer to as “H.15,” under the caption “U.S. government securities–Treasury constant maturities–Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading). In determining the Treasury Rate, we shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the redemption date to the applicable par call date, which we refer to as the “Remaining Life”; or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields—one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life—and shall interpolate to the applicable par call date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the redemption date.

If on the third business day preceding the redemption date H.15 is no longer published, we shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second business day preceding such redemption date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the applicable par call date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the applicable par call date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the applicable par call date, one with a maturity date preceding the applicable par call date and one with a maturity date following the applicable par call date, we shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the applicable par call date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the applicable par call date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, we shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

Our actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the depositary’s procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of notes to be redeemed. Any notice may, in our discretion, be subject to the satisfaction or waiver of one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of an equity offering, a financing or other corporate transaction, provided that if such redemption or notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall state that, in our discretion, the redemption date may be postponed until up to 60 days following the notice of redemption, and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions precedent shall not have been satisfied by the date of redemption (including as it may be postponed).

S-19

In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the notes for redemption will be made pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion deems appropriate and fair. No notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the note will state the portion of the principal amount of the note to be redeemed. A new note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the note will be issued in the name of the holder of the note upon surrender for cancellation of the original note. For so long as the notes are held by DTC (or another depositary), the redemption of the notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the depositary.

Unless we default in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date interest will cease to accrue on the notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

Offer to Repurchase Upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event

If a Change of Control Repurchase Event (defined below) occurs with respect to the notes of either series, unless we have otherwise exercised our right to redeem the notes of the applicable series, we will make an offer to each holder of notes of the applicable series to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that holder’s applicable series of notes at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the notes repurchased to the date of purchase. Within 30 days following any Change of Control Repurchase Event, we will deliver a notice to each holder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Repurchase Event and offering to repurchase the notes on the payment date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered, pursuant to the procedures required by the indenture and described in such notice. We will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which we refer to as the “Exchange Act,” and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the notes as a result of a Change of Control Repurchase Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Repurchase Event provisions of the notes, we will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached our obligations under the Change of Control Repurchase Event provisions of the notes by virtue of such conflict.

On the Change of Control Repurchase Event payment date, we will, to the extent lawful:

The paying agent will promptly deliver to each holder of notes properly tendered the purchase price for such notes, and the trustee will promptly authenticate and deliver (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each holder a new note equal in the principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the notes surrendered, if any; provided, that each new note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Except as described above with respect to a Change of Control Repurchase Event, the indenture does not contain provisions that permit you to require that we repurchase or redeem the notes in the event of a takeover, recapitalization or similar transaction.

We will not be required to make an offer to repurchase the notes upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event if a third party makes an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by us, and such third-party purchases all notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

S-20

The definition of Change of Control includes a phrase relating to the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of “all or substantially all” of our or Cintas’ properties or assets. Although there is a limited body of case law interpreting the phrase “substantially all,” there is no precise established definition of the phrase under New York law, which governs the indenture. Accordingly, the ability of a holder of notes to require us to repurchase any notes as a result of a sale, lease, transfer, conveyance, or other disposition of less than all of our or Cintas’ properties or assets may be uncertain.

For purposes of each series of notes, the following definitions are applicable:

“Below Investment Grade Rating Event” means the applicable series of notes are rated below an Investment Grade Rating by each of the Rating Agencies on any date from the date of the public notice of an arrangement that could result in a Change of Control until the end of the 60-day period following public notice of the occurrence of the Change of Control (which 60-day period shall be extended so long as the rating of such series of notes is under publicly announced consideration for possible downgrade by any of the Rating Agencies).

“Capital Stock” means, with respect to any Person, any and all shares, interests, participations or other equivalents (however designated) in the equity interests of such Person, including without limitation, (i) with respect to a corporation, common stock, preferred stock and any other capital stock, (ii) with respect to a partnership, partnership interests (whether general or limited), and (iii) with respect to a limited liability company, limited liability company interests.

“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following:

provided, that in connection with (a) the direct or indirect sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition described in clause (1) above to Cintas, Cintas No. 2 or a subsidiary guarantor or (b) the consummation of any transaction described in clause (3) above with Cintas No. 2 or a subsidiary guarantor, all references in clauses (1) and (3) above to “Cintas No. 2” and “Cintas,” as applicable, shall henceforth be deemed to refer to the entity that acquires such properties or assets or the surviving entity of such merger or consolidation, as applicable.

“Change of Control Repurchase Event” means the occurrence of both a Change of Control and a Below Investment Grade Rating Event.

“Continuing Director” means, as of any date of determination, any member of the Cintas board of directors who:

S-21

“Investment Grade Rating” means a rating equal to or higher than Baa3 (or the equivalent) by Moody’s and BBB- (or the equivalent) by S&P.

“Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc.

“Person” means any individual, corporation, partnership, association, joint venture, trust or any other entity or organization, including a government or political subdivision or an agency or instrumentality thereof.

“Rating Agency” means each of S&P and Moody’s, or if S&P or Moody’s or both shall not make a rating on the notes publicly available, a nationally recognized statistical rating agency or agencies, as the case may be, selected by us (as certified by a resolution of our board of directors) which shall be substituted for S&P or Moody’s, or both, as the case may be.

“S&P” means Standard & Poor’s Financial Services, LLC, a subsidiary of The McGraw Hill Companies, Inc., and its successors.

“Voting Stock” means, with respect to any Person, the Capital Stock of such Person that is at the time entitled to vote generally in the election of the board of directors (or the equivalent) of such Person.

Further Issuances

We may from time to time, without the consent of existing holders, create and issue additional notes of either series of notes being offered by this prospectus supplement, and such newly issued notes shall have the same interest rate, maturity and other terms as the applicable series of notes. Additional notes issued in this manner will be consolidated with and will form a single series with the previously outstanding notes of the applicable series.

Ranking

The notes will be senior unsecured debt of ours and will rank equally with all other existing and future senior unsecured debt of ours. The notes will effectively rank junior to any secured debt of ours, Cintas or any of the subsidiary guarantors to the extent of the assets securing such debt and to all debt and other liabilities of any subsidiary of Cintas other than the subsidiary guarantors. The guarantees are senior unsecured joint and several obligations of Cintas and each subsidiary guarantor and will rank equally with all other senior unsecured obligations of Cintas and each such guarantor.

At February 28, 2022, Cintas Corporation had no secured debt or senior unsecured debt other than guarantees of the debt of Cintas No. 2. At February 28, 2022, Cintas No. 2 had no secured debt and approximately $2.9 billion of unsecured debt. At February 28, 2022, Cintas’ subsidiary guarantors and Cintas’ other subsidiaries had no secured debt and no senior unsecured debt, other than, with respect to the subsidiary guarantors, guarantees of the debt of Cintas No. 2. See also Note 7 to the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements of Cintas incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement.

Guarantees

Cintas and the subsidiary guarantors fully and unconditionally guarantee, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis, to each holder and the trustee, the full and prompt performance of our obligations under the

S-22

indenture and the notes of either series, including the payment of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the notes. The subsidiary guarantors consist of all of the direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of Cintas that are guarantors of our revolving credit facility organized in any jurisdiction in the United States, which we refer to as “domestic subsidiaries,” subject to release as described below.

Each subsidiary guarantee will be limited to an amount not to exceed the maximum amount that may be guaranteed by the applicable subsidiary guarantor without rendering that guarantee, as it relates to that subsidiary guarantor, voidable under applicable laws relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

We and Cintas have agreed in the indenture to cause (i) any future domestic Significant Subsidiary, at the time it becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Cintas, and (ii) any present or future subsidiary of Cintas, that is not otherwise a subsidiary guarantor of the notes, that becomes a guarantor under any credit agreement, in each case, to become a subsidiary guarantor under the indenture with respect to the notes.

Upon the sale or disposition (by merger or otherwise) of any subsidiary guarantor by Cintas or by any subsidiary of Cintas to any person that is not an affiliate of Cintas, such subsidiary guarantor will automatically be released from all obligations under its guarantee; provided, that such release shall occur if and only to the extent that all obligations of such subsidiary guarantor under all of its guarantees of, and under all of its pledges of assets or other security interests which secure, indebtedness of us, Cintas or any subsidiary of Cintas also terminate upon such sale or disposition. In addition, at any time, upon our request and without the consent of the holders of the notes of either series, any subsidiary guarantor (other than a Significant Subsidiary) may be released from all obligations under its guarantee; provided, that such release shall occur if and only to the extent that all obligations of such subsidiary guarantor under all of its guarantees of the indebtedness of us, Cintas or any other subsidiary of Cintas also terminate at the time of such release.

Certain Covenants

Except as set forth herein, neither we, Cintas or any other subsidiary of Cintas are restricted by the indenture from incurring any type of indebtedness or other obligation, from selling all or substantially all of the assets of a subsidiary, from paying dividends or making distributions on our or their capital stock or purchasing or redeeming our or their capital stock.

Limitations on Liens

The indenture provides that we and the guarantors will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, create, assume, incur or suffer to exist any Lien other than Permitted Liens, the exempted Liens and sale-leaseback transactions described below upon any Principal Property or upon any shares of Capital Stock or Debt of any Subsidiary owning or leasing any Principal Property, whether owned or leased on the date of the indenture or thereafter acquired, to secure any Debt incurred or guaranteed by us, the guarantors or any Subsidiary (other than the notes), without in any such case making effective provision whereby all of the notes outstanding (together with, if we so determine, any other Debt or guarantee thereof by us or the guarantors ranking equally with the notes) shall be secured equally and ratably with, or prior to, such Debt so long as such Debt shall be so secured.

Restriction on Sale-Leasebacks

The indenture provides that, except as described below under “—Exempted Liens and Sale-Leaseback Transactions,” we and the guarantors will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, engage in the sale or transfer by us, the guarantors or any Subsidiary of any Principal Property to a person (other than Cintas or a Subsidiary) and the taking back by Cintas or any Subsidiary, as the case may be, of a lease of such Principal Property, unless:

S-23

Exempted Liens and Sale-Leaseback Transactions

Notwithstanding the foregoing restrictions on Liens and sale-leaseback transactions, the indenture provides that we and the guarantors may, and may permit any Subsidiary to, create, assume, incur, or suffer to exist any Lien other than a Permitted Lien upon any Principal Property or upon any shares of Capital Stock or Debt of any Subsidiary owning or leasing any Principal Property to secure Debt incurred or guaranteed by Cintas or any Subsidiary (other than the notes) or effect any sale-leaseback transaction of a Principal Property that is not excepted by clauses (1) or (2) of the paragraph under “—Restriction On Sale-Leasebacks” above without equally and ratably securing the notes provided that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Debt (other than the notes) secured by Liens other than Permitted Liens upon Principal Property and/or upon such shares of Capital Stock or Debt plus the Attributable Debt from sale-leaseback transactions of Principal Property not so excepted, do not exceed 15% of Consolidated Net Worth.

Certain Definitions

Certain terms used in this section “Description of the Notes” and not previously defined are defined in the indenture as follows:

“Attributable Debt” means, as to any particular lease at any date as of which the amount thereof is to be determined, the total net amount of rent (discounted from the respective due dates thereof at the rate per annum set forth or implicit in the terms of such lease, compounded semiannually) required to be paid by the lessee under such lease during the remaining term thereof. The net amount of rent required to be paid under any such lease for any such period shall be the total scheduled amount of the rent payable by the lessee with respect to such period, but may exclude amounts required to be paid on account of maintenance and repairs, insurance, taxes, assessments, water rates and similar charges. In the case of any lease that is terminable by the lessee upon the payment of a penalty or other termination payment, such amount shall be the amount determined assuming termination upon the first date such lease may be terminated (in which case the amount shall also include the amount of the penalty or termination payment, but no rent shall be considered as required to be paid under such lease subsequent to the first date upon which it may be so terminated).

“Consolidated Net Worth” means at any time the consolidated stockholders’ equity of Cintas and its Subsidiaries calculated on a consolidated basis as of such time.

“Debt” means indebtedness for borrowed money.

“Funded Debt” means Debt having a maturity of more than 12 months from the date as of which the amount thereof is to be determined or having a maturity of less than 12 months but by its terms being renewable or extendible beyond 12 months from such date at the option of the obligor.

“GAAP” with respect to any computation required or permitted under the indenture means generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America at the date or time of such computation.

“Lien” means and includes any mortgage, pledge, lien, security interest, conditional sale or other title retention agreement or other similar encumbrance.

S-24

“Permitted Liens” means:

“Principal Property” means, whether owned or leased on the date of the indenture or thereafter acquired, each manufacturing or processing plant or facility of ours, any guarantor or any of their respective subsidiaries located in the United States of America.

S-25

“Significant Subsidiary” means at any date of determination, any Subsidiary of Cintas that, together with its Subsidiaries, (i) for Cintas’ most recent fiscal quarter, accounted for more than 15% of the consolidated revenues of Cintas and its subsidiaries or (ii) as of the end of such fiscal quarter, was the owner of more than 25% of the consolidated assets of Cintas.

“Significant Subsidiary Guarantor” means any subsidiary guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary.

“Subsidiary” means any corporation, limited liability company or other business entity of which more than 50% of the total voting power of the equity interests entitled (without regard to the occurrence of any contingency) to vote in the election of directors, managers or trustees thereof or any partnership of which more than 50% of the partnership interests (considering all general and limited partnership interests as a single class) is, in each case, at the time owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by Cintas, one or more of the Subsidiaries of Cintas, or combination thereof.

Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets

The indenture provides that Cintas may not, and will not permit any Subsidiary, including us, to consolidate with or merge with or into, or sell, lease, convey all or substantially all of its assets to, another Person unless:

The successor will be substituted, if applicable, for the applicable party to the indenture with the same effect as if it had been an original party to the indenture. Thereafter, the successor may exercise the rights and powers of such party under the indenture.

Events of Default

Each of the following will be an Event of Default under the indenture with respect to each applicable series of notes:

S-26

However, a default under clause (3) of this paragraph will not constitute an Event of Default until the trustee or the holders of 25% in principal amount of the outstanding notes of such series notify us and the guarantors, by registered or certified mail, of the default and such default is not cured within the time specified in clause (3) of this paragraph after receipt of such notice.

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clause (5) above) occurs and is continuing, the trustee by written notice to us or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding notes of each applicable series by written notice to us and the trustee, may, and the trustee at the request of such holders shall, declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the notes of such series to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal, premium and accrued and unpaid interest will be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default described in clause (5) above occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all the notes of such series will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the trustee or any holders. The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding notes of such series may waive all past defaults (except with respect to nonpayment of principal, premium or interest and certain other defaults which require the consent of each noteholder affected) and rescind any such acceleration with respect to the notes of such series and its consequences so long as a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has not been obtained by the trustee and all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the notes of such series that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived.

Subject to the provisions of the indenture relating to the duties of the trustee, if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to each applicable series of notes, the trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under the indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders unless such holders have offered to the trustee reasonable indemnity or security against any loss, liability or expense. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest when due, no holder may pursue any remedy with respect to the indenture or the notes of such series unless:

S-27

Subject to certain restrictions, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding notes of each applicable series are given the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the trustee. The trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or the indenture or that the trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other holder or that would involve the trustee in personal liability. Prior to taking any action under the indenture, the trustee will be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

The holders of any note, however, will have an absolute right to receive payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, such note as expressed therein and to institute suit for the enforcement of such payment.

The indenture provides that if a default occurs and is continuing with respect to the notes of each applicable series, the trustee must deliver (or, in the case of DTC with respect to any global note, send electronically) to each holder of notes of such series notice of the default within 90 days after the occurrence of any default or, if later, within 30 days after the trustee has actual notice of such default; provided that in the case of any default of the character specified in clause (3) above, no such notice to holders shall be given until at least 30 days after the occurrence thereof. Except in the case of a default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any note, the trustee may withhold notice if the trustee determines that withholding notice is in the interests of the holders. In addition, we are required to deliver to the trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, a statement indicating whether the signers thereof know of any default that occurred during the previous year.

Modification, Amendments and Waivers

Modifications and amendments of the indenture may be made by us and the trustee with the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the notes of any applicable series affected by the modification or amendment then outstanding under the indenture (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the notes of such series). However, without the consent of each holder of an outstanding note of such series affected, no amendment may, among other things:

S-28

The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding notes of any applicable series, on behalf of all holders of notes of such series, may waive compliance by the guarantors or us with certain restrictive provisions of the indenture. The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the notes of such series, on behalf of all holders of notes of such series, may waive any past default under the indenture (including any such waiver obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the notes of such series), except a default in the payment of principal, premium or interest or a default in respect of a provision that under the indenture that cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the holder of each note of such series that is affected.

Without the consent of any holder, the trustee and we may amend the indenture to among other things:

The consent of the holders is not necessary under the indenture to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment. It is sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment. After an amendment under the indenture becomes effective, we are required to deliver or send to the holders a notice briefly describing such amendment. However, the failure to give such notice to all the holders, or any defect therein, will not impair or affect the validity of the amendment.

Discharge, Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance

We may discharge certain obligations to holders of any applicable series of notes that have not already been delivered to the trustee for cancellation and that either have become due and payable or will be come due and payable within one year (or scheduled for redemption within one year) by irrevocably depositing with the trustee, in trust, funds in an amount sufficient to pay the entire indebtedness of the notes of such series respect of principal and interest to the date of such deposit (if such notes have become due and payable) or to the stated maturity or redemption date, as the case may be.

The indenture provides that we may elect either (i) to defease and discharge ourselves and the guarantors from any and all obligations with respect to any applicable series of notes (except for the obligations to register the transfer or exchange of the notes of such series, to replace mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen notes, to compensate and reimburse the trustee, to maintain an office or agency in respect of the notes and to hold moneys for payment in trust), which we refer to as “defeasance,” or (ii) to release ourselves and the guarantors from the obligations with

S-29

respect to the notes of such series under the provisions of the indenture described under “—Certain Covenants—Limitations on Liens” and “—Certain Covenants—Restriction on Sale-Leasebacks,” and any omission to comply with such obligations shall not constitute a default or an Event of Default with respect to the notes of such series, which we refer to as “covenant defeasance,” in either case upon the irrevocable deposit by us or the guarantors with the trustee, in trust, of cash or Government Obligations (as defined below), or both, which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in accordance with their terms will provide money in an amount sufficient to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the notes of such series on the scheduled due dates thereof.

Such a trust may only be established if, among other things, we have delivered to the trustee a legal opinion to the effect that the holders of the notes of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance or covenant defeasance and will be subject to United States federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance or covenant defeasance had not occurred, and such legal opinion, in the case of defeasance, must refer to and be based upon a ruling of the Internal Revenue Service or a change in applicable United States federal income tax laws occurring after the date of the issuance of the notes of such series.

“Government Obligations” means securities which are (i) direct obligations of the United States of America or the other government or governments in the confederation which issued the foreign currency in which the principal of or any premium or interest on such security or any additional amounts in respect thereof shall be payable, in each case where the payment or payments thereunder are supported by the full faith and credit of such government or governments or (ii) obligations of a Person controlled or supervised by and acting as an agency or instrumentality of the United States of America or such other government or governments, in each case where the timely payment or payments thereunder are unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation by the United States of America, or such other government or governments, and which, in the case of (i) or (ii), are not callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer or issuers thereof, and shall also include a depositary receipt issued by a bank or trust company as custodian with respect to any such Government Obligation or a specific payment of interest on or principal of or other amount with respect to any such Government Obligation held by such custodian for the account of the holder of a depositary receipt; provided that (except as required by law) such custodian is not authorized to make any deduction from the amount payable to the holder of such depositary receipt from any amount received by the custodian in respect of the Government Obligation or the specific payment of interest on or principal of or other amount with respect to the Government Obligation evidenced by such depositary receipt.

Concerning the Trustee

U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as successor trustee to Wachovia Bank, National Association, is the trustee under the indenture, and we have also appointed U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association as registrar and paying agent with regard to the notes. U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association also serves as the trustee with respect to our 3.250% notes, our 3.700% Senior Notes due 2027 and our 6.15% Senior Notes due 2036.

Governing Law

The indenture provides that it and the notes will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

Book-Entry Settlement Procedures and Form

The Global Notes

The notes will be issued in the form of one or more registered notes in global form, without interest coupons, which we refer to as the “global notes.”

S-30

Upon issuance, each of the global notes will be deposited with the trustee as custodian for DTC and registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC. Upon deposit of each global note with DTC’s custodian, DTC will credit portions of the principal amount of the global note to the accounts of the DTC participants. Ownership of beneficial interests in each global note will be limited to persons who have accounts with DTC, or DTC participants, including Euroclear and Clearstream, or persons who hold interests through DTC participants.

DTC has advised us that it is:

DTC was created to hold securities for its participants and to facilitate the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between its participants through electronic computerized book-entry changes to the accounts of its participants. DTC’s participants include securities brokers and dealers; banks and trust companies; clearing corporations and other organizations. Indirect access to DTC’s system is also available to others such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies; these indirect participants clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a DTC participant, either directly or indirectly. Investors who are not DTC participants may beneficially own securities held by or on behalf of DTC only through DTC participants or indirect participants in DTC.

We expect that pursuant to procedures established by DTC, upon the deposit of the global notes with DTC, DTC will credit on its book entry registration and transfer system the principal amount of notes represented by such global notes to the accounts of participants. Ownership of beneficial interests in the global notes will be limited to participants or persons that may hold interests through participants. Ownership of beneficial interests in the global notes will be shown on and the transfer of those ownership interests will be effected only through, records maintained by DTC (with respect to participants’ interests), the participants and the indirect participants (with respect to the owners of beneficial interests in the global note other than participants). All interests in a global note deposited with DTC are subject to the procedures and requirements of DTC.

So long as DTC’s nominee is the registered holder of a global note, that nominee will be considered the sole owner or holder of the notes represented by that global note for all purposes under the indenture. Except as provided below, owners of beneficial interests in a global note:

As a result, each investor who owns a beneficial interest in a global note must rely on the procedures of DTC to exercise any rights of a holder of notes under the indenture (and, if the investor is not a participant or an indirect participant in DTC, on the procedures of the DTC participant through which the investor owns its interest).

Payments of principal, premium (if any) and interest with respect to the notes represented by a global note will be made by the trustee to DTC’s nominee as the registered holder of the global note. Neither we, the guarantors nor the trustee will have any responsibility or liability for the payment of amounts to owners of beneficial interests in a global note, for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of those interests by DTC, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records of DTC relating to those interests.

S-31

Payments by participants and indirect participants in DTC to the owners of beneficial interests in a global note will be governed by standing instructions and customary industry practice and will be the responsibility of those participants or indirect participants and DTC. Transfers between participants in DTC will be effected under DTC’s procedures and will be settled in same-day funds.

DTC has agreed to the above procedures to facilitate transfers of interests in the global notes among participants in those settlement systems. However, DTC is not obligated to perform these procedures and may discontinue or change these procedures at any time. Neither the guarantors, the trustee nor we will have any responsibility for the performance by DTC or its participants or indirect participants of their obligations under the rules and procedures governing their operations.

We expect that DTC (or its nominee), upon receipt of any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the global notes will credit the accounts of their relevant participants or account holders, as applicable, with payments in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in the principal amount of the applicable global note as shown on the records of DTC (or its nominee). We also expect that payments by participants or indirect participants or account holders, as applicable, to owners of beneficial interests in the global notes held through such participants or indirect participants or account holders will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices and will be the responsibility of such participants or indirect participants or account holders, as applicable. We will not have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to, or payments made on account of, beneficial ownership interests in the global notes for any note or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests or for any other aspect of the relationship between DTC and its participants or indirect participants, or the relationship between such participants or indirect participants, and the owners of beneficial interests in the global notes owning through such participants.

All amounts payable under the notes will be payable in U.S. dollars, except as may otherwise be agreed between any applicable securities clearing system and any holders. Payments will be subject in all cases to any fiscal or other laws and regulations (including any regulations of any applicable securities clearing system) applicable thereto. None of the trustee, us, a guarantor or any of their respective agents shall be liable to any holder of a global note or other person for any commissions, costs, losses or expenses in relation to or resulting from any currency conversion or rounding effected in connection therewith. Investors may be subject to foreign exchange risks that may have important economic and tax consequences to them.

Certificated Notes

Notes in physical, certificated form will be issued and delivered to each person that DTC identifies as a beneficial owner of the related notes only if:

MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

This section summarizes the material U.S. federal income tax considerations to holders relating to the purchase, ownership and disposition of the notes issued pursuant to this offering, but does not purport to be a complete analysis of all potential tax considerations relating to the notes. The effects of other U.S. federal tax laws, such as estate and gift tax laws, and any applicable state, local or non-U.S. tax laws are not discussed. This summary deals only with notes that are held as capital assets (generally, property held for investment) by holders that purchase the notes for cash pursuant to this offering at their initial offering price (the first price at which a substantial amount of the notes are sold to purchasers for cash other than bond houses, brokers or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity as underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers). This section is based upon the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which we refer to as the “Code,” judicial decisions, final, temporary and proposed Treasury Regulations, published rulings and other administrative pronouncements as of the date of this prospectus supplement, changes to any of which subsequent to the date of this prospectus supplement may affect the tax consequences described herein, possibly with retroactive effect. This discussion does not address the tax consequences to persons that participate in this offering and are also beneficial owners of our 3.250% notes or lenders under our revolving credit facility that are repaid with the proceeds of this offering as described in “Use of Proceeds.” This section does not address all tax considerations that may be relevant to a particular holder in light of the holder’s circumstances (such as the effects of Section 451(b) of the Code conforming the timing of certain income accruals to financial statements) or to holders that are subject to special rules, including:

For purposes of this discussion, a “U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of notes that is, or is treated as, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

S-33

For purposes of this discussion, a “Non-U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of notes (other than an entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that is not a U.S. Holder. If any entity or arrangement, domestic or foreign, treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds notes, the tax treatment of a partner in such partnership generally will depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Entities and arrangements treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and partners in such partnerships, should consult their own tax advisors with regard to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the notes by the partnership.

Please consult your own tax advisor as to the particular tax consequences to you of purchasing, holding and disposing of notes in your particular circumstances under the Code and the laws of any other taxing jurisdiction.

Additional Amounts

In certain circumstances (see “Description of the Notes —Offer to Repurchase Upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event”), we may be obligated to pay amounts in excess of stated interest or principal on the notes. According to the applicable Treasury Regulations, the possibility that any such payments in excess of stated interest or principal will be made will not cause the notes to be treated as contingent payment debt instruments if, as of the date the notes were issued, such possibility is “remote” or is considered to be “incidental.” We intend to take the position that the possibility of the prospective payment of such additional amounts is a “remote” and/or “incidental” contingency, and this discussion assumes that our position will be respected. Therefore, we do not intend to treat the notes as contingent payment debt instruments. Our determination that these contingencies are remote and/or incidental is binding on a holder subject to U.S. federal income tax unless such holder discloses its contrary position in the manner required by applicable Treasury Regulations. Our determination is not, however, binding on the Internal Revenue Service, which we refer to as the “IRS,” and if the IRS were to challenge this determination, a holder subject to U.S. federal income tax might be required to accrue income on its notes in excess of stated interest, and to treat as ordinary income rather than capital gain any income realized on the taxable disposition of a note before the resolution of the contingencies.

Consequences to U.S. Holders

Interest

Payments of stated interest on the notes generally will be taxable to a U.S. Holder as ordinary income at the time that such payments are received or accrued, in accordance with such U.S. Holder’s method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If the notes are issued at a discount that is more than a de minimis amount (i.e., a discount that equals or exceeds 0.25% of the principal amount of the notes multiplied by the number of complete years to maturity), the notes will be considered to be issued with original issue discount for U.S. federal income tax purposes. It is anticipated, and this discussion assumes, that the notes will be issued at par or at a discount that is not more than de minimis for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

S-34

Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Notes

A U.S. Holder will recognize gain or loss on the sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other taxable disposition of a note equal to the difference between the amount realized upon the disposition (less any portion allocable to accrued and unpaid interest, which will be taxable as interest) and the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the note. A U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in a note generally will be the U.S. Holder’s cost therefor. This gain or loss generally will be a capital gain or loss, and will be a long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder has held the note for more than one year. Otherwise, such gain or loss will be a short-term capital gain or loss. Long-term capital gains recognized by certain non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individuals, generally will be taxable at a preferential rate. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

Surtax on Net Investment Income

A U.S. Holder that is an individual or estate, or a trust that does not fall into a special class of trusts that is exempt from such tax, will be subject to a 3.8% surtax on the lesser of (1) the U.S. Holder’s “net investment income” for the relevant taxable year and (2) the excess of the U.S. Holder’s modified adjusted gross income for the taxable year over a certain threshold. A U.S. Holder’s net investment income generally will include its gross interest income and its net gains from the disposition of the notes, unless such interest payments or net gains are derived in the ordinary course of the conduct of a trade or business (other than a trade or business that consists of certain passive or trading activities). If you are a U.S. Holder that is an individual, estate, or trust, you are urged to consult your tax advisors regarding the applicability of the surtax to your income and gains in respect of your investment in the notes.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

In general, information reporting requirements will apply to payments of interest and the proceeds of certain sales, exchanges, redemptions, retirements and other taxable dispositions of notes unless you are an exempt recipient. Backup withholding (currently at a rate of 24%) will apply to such payments if you are a United States person (within the meaning of the Code) and you fail to provide your taxpayer identification number or certification of exempt status or have been notified by the IRS that payments to you are subject to backup withholding or if you otherwise fail to comply with the applicable backup withholding rules. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules generally will be allowed as a credit against your U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle you to a refund, provided that you furnish the required information to the IRS on a timely basis.

Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders

Interest

Subject to the discussion below concerning backup withholding and the discussion below concerning the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, which we refer to as “FATCA,” payments of interest on a note (which for purposes of this discussion includes any payments on the notes that may be treated as interest for U.S. federal income tax purposes) to Non-U.S. Holders generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax or withholding tax, provided that the holder certifies its nonresident status as described below, and:

S-35

A Non-U.S. Holder can meet the certification requirement by providing a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or appropriate successor form), to the applicable withholding agent prior to the payment. If the Non-U.S. Holder holds the note through a financial institution or other agent acting on the holder’s behalf, the holder will be required to provide appropriate documentation to such agent. The Non-U.S. Holder’s agent will then be required to provide certification to the applicable withholding agent, either directly or through other intermediaries.

If the Non-U.S. Holder cannot satisfy the requirements described above, payments of interest will be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate of 30% unless a tax treaty applies or the interest payments are effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business (as discussed below). If a tax treaty applies to you, you may be eligible for a reduced rate of withholding. In order to claim any exemption from or reduction in the 30% withholding tax, a Non-U.S. Holder generally must provide the applicable withholding agent a properly executed (i) IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or appropriate successor form), claiming a reduction of or an exemption from withholding under an applicable tax treaty or (ii) IRS Form W-8ECI (or appropriate successor form) stating that such payments are not subject to withholding tax because they are effectively connected with the holder’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States.

The certifications described above must be provided prior to the payment of interest and must be updated periodically. Non-U.S. Holders that do not timely provide the required certification, but that qualify for a reduced rate under an applicable income tax treaty, may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding their entitlement to benefits under any applicable income tax treaty.

Income or Gain Effectively Connected with a U.S. Trade or Business

If a Non-U.S. Holder is engaged in a trade or business in the United States and interest on the notes, or gain recognized from the sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other taxable disposition of the notes, is effectively connected with the conduct of such trade or business, such Non-U.S. Holder will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on that interest (but not U.S. federal withholding tax on such interest if certain requirements are satisfied) and on that gain on a net income basis generally in the same manner as if the holder was a U.S. person, unless an applicable income tax treaty provides otherwise. Such Non-U.S. Holder generally can meet these certification requirements by providing a properly executed IRS Form W-8ECI (or appropriate successor form) to the applicable withholding agent. If a Non-U.S. Holder is eligible for the benefits of an income tax treaty between the United States and such Non-U.S. Holder’s country of residence, any effectively connected income or gain generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax only if it is also attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base maintained by such Non-U.S. Holder in the United States. In addition, a corporate Non-U.S. Holder may be subject to a 30% branch profits tax (or lower applicable tax treaty rate, provided certain certification requirements are met) on its effectively connected earnings and profits (as adjusted for certain items).

Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Notes

Except as described below and subject to the discussion below on backup withholding and the discussion below concerning FATCA, any gain or income realized on the sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other taxable disposition of a note generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax unless:

S-36

To the extent that the amount realized on a sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other taxable disposition of the notes is attributable to accrued but unpaid interest on the notes, this amount generally will be treated in the same manner as described under the heading “Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders —Interest,” above.

In the case of gain described in the first bullet point above, a Non-U.S. Holder should see “—Income or Gain Effectively Connected with a U.S. Trade or Business” above.

Gain described in the second bullet point above will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty), which may be offset by U.S. source capital losses of the Non-U.S. Holder (even though the individual is not considered a resident of the United States), provided the Non-U.S. Holder has timely filed U.S. federal income tax returns with respect to such losses.

Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding any applicable income tax treaties that may provide for different rules.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Generally, information returns will be filed with the IRS in connection with payments of interest on the notes and proceeds from the sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other taxable disposition of the notes. Copies of the information returns reporting such payments and any withholding may also be made available to the tax authorities in the country in which you reside under the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty.

If you are a Non-U.S. Holder, you may be subject to backup withholding of tax on payments of interest and, depending on the circumstances, the proceeds of a sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other taxable disposition unless you comply with certain certification procedures to establish that you are not a United States person (within the meaning of the Code) or you are otherwise exempt from backup withholding. The certification procedures required to claim an exemption from withholding of tax on interest described above generally will satisfy the certification requirements necessary to avoid backup withholding as well.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules generally will be allowed as a credit against your U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle you to a refund, provided that you furnish the required information to the IRS on a timely basis. You are urged to consult your own tax advisor regarding the application of backup withholding rules in your particular situation, the availability of an exemption from backup withholding and the procedure for obtaining such an exemption, if applicable.

FATCA

Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations and administrative guidance issued thereunder impose a 30% withholding tax on any U.S.-source interest paid on the notes, and on the gross proceeds from a disposition (including a retirement or redemption) of such notes, in each case, if paid to a “foreign financial institution” or a “non-financial foreign entity” (each as defined in the Code), including when acting as an intermediary, unless: (i) in the case of a foreign financial institution, such institution enters into an agreement with the IRS to withhold on certain payments, and to collect and provide to the IRS information regarding U.S. account holders of such institution (which includes certain equity and debt holders of such institution, as well as certain account holders that are non-U.S. entities with United States owners); (ii) in the case of a non-financial foreign entity, such entity certifies that it does not have any “substantial United States owners” (as defined in the Code) or provides the applicable withholding agent with a certification identifying its direct and indirect substantial United States owners; or (iii) the foreign financial institution or non-financial foreign entity otherwise qualifies for an exemption from these rules. The IRS has issued proposed Treasury Regulations that eliminate withholding on payments of gross proceeds (but not on payments of interest). Pursuant to the preamble to the proposed Treasury Regulations, we and any other applicable withholding agent may (but are not required to) rely on this proposed

S-37

change to FATCA withholding until final Treasury Regulations are issued or until such proposed Treasury Regulations are rescinded. Foreign financial institutions located in jurisdictions that have an intergovernmental agreement with the United States with respect to FATCA may be subject to different rules.

We will not pay any additional amounts to Non-U.S. Holders in respect of any amounts withheld, including amounts withheld as a result of FATCA. Under certain circumstances, a Non-U.S. Holder might be eligible for refunds or credits of such taxes. Non-U.S. Holders are urged to consult with their own tax advisors regarding the effect, if any, of the FATCA provisions to them based on their particular circumstances.

The preceding discussion of material U.S. federal income tax consequences is general information only and is not tax advice. Accordingly, you should consult your own tax advisor as to the particular tax consequences to you of purchasing, owning or disposing of notes, including the applicability and effect of any state, local or non-U.S. tax laws, and of any changes or proposed changes in applicable law.

S-38

CERTAIN ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

The following summary regarding certain aspects of the United States Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, which we refer to as “ERISA,” and the Code is based on ERISA and the Code, judicial decisions and United States Department of Labor and IRS regulations and rulings that are in existence on the date of this prospectus supplement. This summary is general in nature and does not address every issue pertaining to ERISA that may be applicable to us, the notes or a particular investor. Accordingly, each prospective investor, including plan fiduciaries, should consult with his, her or its own advisors or counsel with respect to the advisability of an investment in the notes, and potentially adverse consequences of such investment, including, without limitation, certain ERISA-related issues that affect or may affect the investor with respect to this investment and the possible effects of changes in the applicable laws.

ERISA and the Code impose certain requirements on employee benefit plans that are subject to Title I of ERISA, plans subject to Section 4975 of the Code (such as individual retirement accounts) and entities that are deemed to hold the assets of such plans (each such employee benefit plan, plan or entity, a “Plan”) and on those persons who are “fiduciaries” with respect to Plans. In considering an investment of the assets of a Plan subject to Title I of ERISA in the notes, a fiduciary must, among other things, discharge its duties solely in the interest of the participants of such Plan and their beneficiaries and for the exclusive purpose of providing benefits to such participants and beneficiaries and defraying reasonable expenses of administering the Plan. A fiduciary must act prudently and must diversify the investments of a Plan subject to Title I of ERISA so as to minimize the risk of large losses, as well as discharge its duties in accordance with the documents and instruments governing such Plan. In addition, ERISA generally requires fiduciaries to hold all assets of a Plan subject to Title I of ERISA in trust and to maintain the indicia of ownership of such assets within the jurisdiction of the district courts of the United States. A fiduciary of a Plan subject to Title I of ERISA should consider whether an investment in the notes satisfies these requirements.

An investor who is considering acquiring the notes with the assets of a Plan must consider whether the acquisition and holding of the notes will constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction. Section 406(a) of ERISA and Sections 4975(c)(1)(A), (B), (C) and (D) of the Code prohibit certain transactions that involve a Plan and a “party in interest” as defined in Section 3(14) of ERISA or a “disqualified person” as defined in Section 4975(e)(2) of the Code with respect to such Plan. Examples of such prohibited transactions include, but are not limited to, sales or exchanges of property (such as the notes) or extensions of credit between a Plan and a party in interest or disqualified person. Section 406(b) of ERISA and Sections 4975(c)(1)(E) and (F) of the Code generally prohibit a fiduciary with respect to a Plan from dealing with the assets of the Plan for its own benefit (for example when a fiduciary of a Plan uses its position to cause the Plan to make investments in connection with which the fiduciary (or a party related to the fiduciary) receives a fee or other consideration).

S-39

ERISA and the Code contain certain exemptions from the prohibited transactions described above, and the Department of Labor has issued several exemptions, although certain exemptions do not provide relief from the prohibitions on self-dealing contained in Section 406(b) of ERISA and Sections 4975(c)(1)(E) and (F) of the Code. Exemptions include Section 408(b)(17) of ERISA and Section 4975(d)(20) of the Code pertaining to certain transactions with non-fiduciary service providers; Department of Labor Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption, which we refer to as “PTCE,” 95-60, applicable to transactions involving insurance company general accounts; PTCE 90-1, regarding investments by insurance company pooled separate accounts; PTCE 91-38, regarding investments by bank collective investment funds; PTCE 84-14, regarding investments effected by a qualified professional asset manager; and PTCE 96-23, regarding investments effected by an in-house asset manager. There can be no assurance that any of these exemptions will be available with respect to the acquisition of the notes, even if the specified conditions are met. Under ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code, excise taxes or other liabilities may be imposed on parties in interest or disqualified persons who participate in non-exempt prohibited transactions (other than a fiduciary acting only as such).

As a general rule, a governmental plan, as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA, which we refer to as a “Governmental Plan,” a church plan, as defined in Section 3(33) of ERISA, that has not made an election under Section 410(d) of the Code, which we refer to as a “Church Plan,” and a non-U.S. plan, as described in Section 4(b)(4) of ERISA, are not subject to the requirements of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code. Accordingly, assets of such plans may be invested without regard to the fiduciary and prohibited transaction considerations described above. Although a Governmental Plan, a Church Plan or a non-U.S. plan is not subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, it may be subject to other United States federal, state or local laws or regulations or non-United States laws or regulations that regulate its investments and are similar to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, which we refer to as a “Similar Law.” A fiduciary of a Government Plan, a Church Plan or a non-U.S. plan should make its own determination as to the requirements, if any, under any Similar Law applicable to the acquisition and holding of the notes.

The notes may be acquired by a Plan, and any person investing “plan assets” of any Plan or by a Governmental Plan, a Church Plan or a non-U.S. plan, but only if the acquisition and holding will not result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or a violation of Similar Law. Therefore, any investor in the notes will be deemed to represent and warrant that (a) it is not (i) a Plan, (ii) a Governmental Plan, (iii) a Church Plan or (iv) a non-U.S. plan, (b) it is a Plan and the acquisition and holding of the notes will not result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, or (c) it is a Governmental Plan, a Church Plan or a non-U.S. plan that is not subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and the acquisition and holding of the notes will not result in a violation under any Similar Law.

None of us, the underwriters, the trustee, registrar, paying agent or any of their respective affiliates has provided, and none of them will provide, any investment recommendation or investment advice, and are not giving any advice in a fiduciary capacity, in connection with the investment in the notes by any Plan, Governmental Plan, Church Plan or non-U.S. plan.

This offer is not a representation by us or the underwriters that an acquisition of the notes meets all legal requirements applicable to investments by Plans, Governmental Plans, Church Plans or non-U.S. plans or that such an investment is appropriate for any particular Plan, Governmental Plan, Church Plan or non-U.S. plan.

UNDERWRITING (CONFLICTS OF INTEREST)

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in an underwriting agreement by and among KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., MUFG Securities Americas Inc. and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as representatives for the underwriters named in the agreement, and us, Cintas Corporation and the subsidiary guarantors, we have agreed to sell to each underwriter, and each underwriter has severally agreed to purchase from us, the principal amount of notes set forth opposite its name in the table below.

Under the terms of the underwriting agreement, the underwriters are committed to purchase all of the notes if any notes are purchased. If an underwriter defaults, the underwriting agreement provides that the purchase commitments of the non-defaulting underwriters may be increased, or the underwriting agreement may be terminated.

We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, or to contribute to payments the underwriters may be required to make because of any of those liabilities.

The underwriting agreement provides that the underwriters’ obligations to purchase the notes depend on the satisfaction of the conditions contained in the underwriting agreement. The conditions contained in the underwriting agreement include the requirement that the representations and warranties made by us to the underwriters are true, that there is no material change in the financial markets and that we deliver to the underwriters customary closing documents. The offering of the notes by the underwriters is subject to receipt and acceptance and subject to the underwriters’ right to reject any order in whole or in part.

The underwriters propose to offer the notes directly to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover of this prospectus supplement.

Any notes sold by the underwriters to securities dealers may be sold at a discount from the public offering price of up to 0.20% of the principal amount of each 2025 note and up to 0.40% of the principal amount of each 2032 note. Any such securities dealers may resell any notes purchased from the underwriters to certain other brokers or dealers at a discount from the public offering price up to 0.15% of the principal amount of the 2025 notes and up to 0.25% of the principal amount of the 2032 notes. After the initial offering of the notes, the underwriters may change the offering prices.

S-41

The following table shows the underwriting discounts and commissions that we will pay to the underwriters.

We estimate that the total expenses related to this offering payable by us, excluding underwriting discounts and commissions, will be approximately $2.3 million.

We expect that delivery of the notes will be made against payment therefor on or about the fifth business day following the date of this prospectus supplement (such settlement cycle being referred to as “T+5”). Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the notes before the second business day prior to the closing date specified on the cover of this prospectus supplement will be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes initially will settle in T+5, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the notes who wish to trade such notes before the second business day prior to the closing date specified on the cover of this prospectus supplement should consult their own advisors.

In connection with this offering, the underwriters may purchase and sell notes in the open market. These transactions may include over-allotment, syndicate covering transactions and stabilizing transactions. Over-allotment involves sales of notes in excess of the principal amount of notes to be purchased by the underwriters in this offering, which creates a short position for the underwriters. Covering transactions involve purchases of the notes in the open market after the distribution has been completed in order to cover short positions. Stabilizing transactions consist of certain bids or purchases of notes made for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the notes while the offering is in progress. Any of these activities may have the effect of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the notes. They may also cause the price of the notes to be higher than the price that otherwise would exist in the open market in the absence of these transactions. The underwriters may conduct these transactions in the over-the-counter market or otherwise. If the underwriters commence any of these transactions, they may discontinue them at any time.

Neither we nor the underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the effect the transactions described above may have on the price of the notes. Any of these activities may have the effect of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the notes. They may also cause the price of the notes to be higher than the price that would otherwise exist on the open market in the absence of these transactions.

The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. Currently, there is no public market for the notes.

The underwriters and their affiliates have provided, and may in the future provide, various investment banking, commercial banking, financial advisory and other services to us and our affiliates for which services they have received, and may in the future receive, customary fees. In the course of their businesses, the underwriters and their affiliates may actively trade our or our affiliates’ securities or loans for their own account or for the accounts of customers, and, accordingly, the underwriters and their affiliates may at any time hold long or short positions in such securities or loans.

Some of the underwriters and their affiliates have engaged in, and may in the future engage in, investment banking and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with us or our affiliates. On March 23, 2022, we

S-42

entered into the Credit Agreement to increase the capacity of our revolving credit facility from $1,000 million to $2,000 million. The additional revolving loans will be provided by a syndicate of banks and other financial institutions, including the underwriters or their affiliates, with KeyBank National Association, an affiliate of one of the underwriters, acting as administrative agent, swing line lender and issuing lender. KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., a representative for the several underwriters, acts as a joint lead arranger and a joint book runner under the Credit Agreement. MUFG Bank, Ltd., Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, PNC Bank, National Association and Fifth Third Bank, National Association, which are affiliates of certain of the underwriters, act as joint lead arrangers, joint book runners and co-syndication agents under the Credit Agreement. U.S. Bank National Association, which is an affiliate of U.S. Bancorp Investments, Inc., acts as documentation agent under the Credit Agreement. These entities have received, and will continue to receive, customary fees for their services in such capacities.

In addition, in the ordinary course of their business activities, the underwriters and their affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers. Such investments and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of ours or our affiliates. In addition, if any of the underwriters or their affiliates has a lending relationship with us, certain of those underwriters or their affiliates routinely hedge, and certain other of those underwriters or their affiliates may hedge, their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. Typically, these underwriters and their affiliates would hedge such exposure by entering into transactions which consist of either the purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities, including potentially the notes offered hereby. Any such credit default swaps or short positions could adversely affect future trading prices of the notes offered hereby. The underwriters and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments. In addition, U.S. Bancorp Investments, Inc., one of the underwriters, is an affiliate of the trustee under the indenture governing the notes.

As described above under “Use of Proceeds,” certain of the underwriters are, or are a subsidiary or affiliate of, (i) holders of the 3.250% notes and/or (ii) lenders under our revolving credit facility and, accordingly, will receive a portion of the net proceeds of this offering. Accordingly, this offering is being made in compliance with FINRA Rule 5121. The amount received by any underwriter and/or affiliate of such underwriter, as applicable, from the repayment of any indebtedness owed to such underwriter and/or affiliate of such underwriter may exceed 5% of the net proceeds of this offering (not including the underwriters’ discount and commissions). The appointment of a “qualified independent underwriter” is not required in connection with this offering because the notes are “investment grade rated” (as defined in FINRA Rule 5121).

Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014, as amended (the “PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering or selling the notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.

DESCRIPTION OF

SENIOR DEBT SECURITIES

The debt securities offered by this prospectus will be unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of Cintas No. 2. The debt securities will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Cintas Corporation and the subsidiary guarantors. The debt securities will be issued under an indenture among us, Cintas Corporation, the subsidiary guarantors and U.S. Bank National Association, as successor trustee to Wachovia Bank, National Association, as trustee. A copy of the indenture has been filed with the SEC as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

The following briefly summarizes the material provisions of the indenture. The following does not restate the indenture in its entirety. You should read the provisions of the indenture, including the defined terms, for information that may be important to you as the indenture, and not this description, defines the rights of holders of debt securities. You should also read the particular terms of any series of debt securities, which will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement and may be different from the disclosure in this prospectus. Copies of the indenture may be obtained from Cintas or the trustee under the indenture.

For purposes of this “Description of Senior Debt Securities” section, “Cintas” shall mean Cintas Corporation and shall not include Cintas No. 2 or the subsidiary guarantors.

Capitalized terms used in this “Description of Senior Debt Securities” section and not otherwise defined in this prospectus are defined under “—Certain Definitions” below.

General

The indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of debt securities that may be issued under it and provides that debt securities may be issued in one or more series, in such form or forms, with such terms and up to the aggregate principal amount, that we may authorize from time to time. The indenture gives us broad authority to set the particular terms of each series of debt securities issued thereunder, including, without limitation, the right to modify certain of the terms contained in the indenture. Our board of directors, or an authorized committee thereof, shall establish, or authorize the establishment of, the terms of each series of debt securities, and such terms will be set forth or determined in the manner provided in one or more resolutions of our board of directors or by a supplemental indenture or officers’ certificate. All debt securities of one series need not be issued at the same time and, unless otherwise provided, a series may be reopened, without the consent of any holder, for issuances of additional debt securities of that series.

The applicable prospectus supplement relating to any series of debt securities will describe the following terms, where applicable:

5

The debt securities of a series may be issued in the form of one or more global securities that will be deposited with a depositary or its nominees identified in the prospectus supplement relating to the debt securities. In such a case, one or more global securities will be issued in a denomination or aggregate denominations equal to the portion of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding debt securities of the series to be represented by such global security or securities.

Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for debt securities in definitive registered form, a global security may not be registered for transfer or exchange except as a whole by the depositary for such global security to a nominee of the depositary and except in the circumstances described in the prospectus supplement relating to the debt securities.

If material, federal income tax consequences and other special considerations applicable to any debt securities will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Payment and Paying Agents

Distributions on the debt securities other than those represented by global debt securities will be made in the designated currency against surrender of the debt securities at the principal office of the paying agent. Payment will be made to the registered holder at the close of business on the record date for such payment. Interest payments will be made at the principal corporate trust office of the trustee, or by a check mailed to the holder at his registered address. Payments in any other manner will be specified in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Optional Redemption

The debt securities may be redeemed, at the option of Cintas No. 2, only on terms set forth in the indenture and the debt securities being redeemed, which will be summarized in the applicable prospectus supplement. On or after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the debt securities or any portion thereof called for redemption (unless Cintas No. 2 defaults in the payment of the redemption price and accrued interest). Holders of debt securities to be redeemed will receive notice thereof by first-class mail at least 30 and not more than 60 days before the date fixed for redemption. If fewer than all of the debt securities are to be redeemed, the trustee will select the particular debt securities or portions of the principal amounts thereof for redemption from the outstanding debt securities not previously called in such manner as the trustee deems fair and appropriate.

6

Except as set forth above and as described in any applicable prospectus supplement, the debt securities will not be redeemable by us prior to maturity and will not be entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund.

Guarantees

Cintas and the subsidiary guarantors will fully and unconditionally guarantee, jointly and severally, to each holder and the trustee, the full and prompt performance of our obligations under the indenture and the debt securities, including the payment of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the debt securities. The subsidiary guarantors consist of all of the direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of Cintas that are guarantors of our revolving credit facility organized in any jurisdiction in the United States, which we refer to as domestic subsidiaries, subject to release as described below.

Each subsidiary guarantee will be limited to an amount not to exceed the maximum amount that may be guaranteed by the applicable subsidiary guarantor without rendering that guarantee, as it relates to that subsidiary guarantor, voidable under applicable laws relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

We and Cintas have agreed in the indenture to cause (i) any future domestic Significant Subsidiary, at the time it becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Cintas, and (ii) any present or future subsidiary of Cintas, that is not otherwise a subsidiary guarantor of the debt securities, that becomes a guarantor under any credit facility or lending arrangement for indebtedness of Cintas or Cintas No. 2, in each case, to become a subsidiary guarantor under the indenture with respect to the debt securities of each series.

Upon the sale or disposition (by merger or otherwise) of any subsidiary guarantor by Cintas or by any subsidiary of Cintas to any person that is not an affiliate of Cintas, such subsidiary guarantor will automatically be released from all obligations under its guarantee; provided, that such release shall occur if and only to the extent that all obligations of such subsidiary guarantor under all of its guarantees of, and under all of its pledges of assets or other security interests which secure, indebtedness of us, Cintas or any subsidiary of Cintas also terminate upon such sale or disposition. In addition, at any time, upon our request and without the consent of the holders of the debt securities, any subsidiary guarantor (other than a Significant Subsidiary) may be released from all obligations under its guarantee; provided, that such release shall occur if and only to the extent that all obligations of such subsidiary guarantor under all of its guarantees of the indebtedness of us, Cintas or any other subsidiary of Cintas also terminate at the time of such release. If, upon the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of a subsidiary guarantor, or otherwise, such subsidiary guarantor is no longer a Significant Subsidiary, the guarantee of such subsidiary guarantor may be released subject to the conditions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence.

Certain Covenants

Except as set forth herein, neither we, Cintas nor any other subsidiary of Cintas are restricted by the indenture from incurring any type of indebtedness or other obligation, from selling all or substantially all of the assets of a subsidiary, from paying dividends or making distributions on our or their capital stock or purchasing or redeeming our or their capital stock. In addition, the indenture does not contain any provisions that would require us, Cintas or any other subsidiary of Cintas to repurchase or redeem or otherwise modify the terms of any of the debt securities upon a change in control or other events involving us, Cintas, or any other subsidiary of Cintas, which may adversely affect the creditworthiness of the debt securities.

Limitations on Liens

The indenture provides that we and the guarantors will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, create, assume, incur or suffer to exist any Lien other than Permitted Liens, the exempted Liens and sale-leaseback transactions described below upon any Principal Property or upon any shares of Capital Stock or Debt of any Subsidiary owning or leasing any Principal Property, whether owned or leased on the date of the indenture or thereafter acquired, to

7

secure any Debt incurred or guaranteed by us, the guarantors or any Subsidiary (other than the debt securities), without in any such case making effective provision whereby all of the debt securities outstanding (together with, if we so determine, any other Debt or guarantee thereof by us or the guarantors ranking equally with the debt securities) shall be secured equally and ratably with, or prior to, such Debt so long as such Debt shall be so secured.

Restriction on Sale-Leasebacks

The indenture provides that, except as described below under “Exempted Liens and Sale-Leaseback Transactions,” we and the guarantors will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, engage in the sale or transfer by us, the guarantors or any Subsidiary of any Principal Property to a person (other than Cintas or a Subsidiary) and the taking back by Cintas or any Subsidiary, as the case may be, of a lease of such Principal Property, unless:

Exempted Liens and Sale-Leaseback Transactions

Notwithstanding the foregoing restrictions on Liens and sale-leaseback transactions, the indenture provides that we and the guarantors may, and may permit any Subsidiary to, create, assume, incur, or suffer to exist any Lien other than a Permitted Lien upon any Principal Property or upon any shares of Capital Stock or Debt of any Subsidiary owning or leasing any Principal Property to secure Debt incurred or guaranteed by Cintas or any Subsidiary (other than the debt securities) or effect any sale-leaseback transaction of a Principal Property that is not excepted by clauses (1) or (2) of the paragraph under “Restriction On SaleLeasebacks” above without equally and ratably securing the debt securities; provided, that after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Debt (other than the debt securities) secured by Liens other than Permitted Liens upon Principal Property and/or upon such shares of Capital Stock or Debt plus the Attributable Debt from sale-leaseback transactions of Principal Property not so excepted, do not exceed 15% of Consolidated Net Worth.

Certain Definitions

The net amount of rent required to be paid under any such lease for any such period shall be the total scheduled amount of the rent payable by the lessee with respect to such period, but may exclude amounts required to be paid on account of maintenance and repairs, insurance, taxes, assessments, water rates and similar charges. In the case of any lease that is terminable by the lessee upon the payment of a penalty or other termination payment, such amount shall be the amount determined assuming termination upon the first date such lease may be terminated (in which case the amount shall also include the amount of the penalty or termination payment, but no rent shall be considered as required to be paid under such lease subsequent to the first date upon which it may be so terminated).

“Capital Stock” means, with respect to any Person, any and all shares, interests, participations or other equivalents (however designated) in the equity interests of such Person, including without limitation, (i) with respect to a corporation, common stock, preferred stock and any other capital stock, (ii) with respect to a partnership, partnership interests (whether general or limited), and (iii) with respect to a limited liability company, limited liability company interests.

“Funded Debt” means Debt having a maturity of more than 12 months from the date as of which the amount thereof is to be determined or having a maturity of less than 12 months but by its terms being renewable or extendible beyond 12 months from such date at the option of the obligor.

“GAAP” with respect to any computation required or permitted under the indenture means generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America at the date or time of such computation.

Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets

The indenture provides that Cintas may not, and will not permit any Subsidiary, including us, to consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its properties and assets to, another Person unless:

10

The successor will be substituted, if applicable, for the applicable party to the indenture with the same effect as if it had been an original party to the indenture. Thereafter, the successor may exercise the rights and powers of such party under the indenture.

Events of Default

Each of the following will be an “Event of Default” under the indenture with respect to the debt securities of each series:

However, a default under clause (3) of this paragraph will not constitute an Event of Default until the trustee or the holders of 25% in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of such series notify us and the guarantors, by registered or certified mail, of the default and such default is not cured within the time specified in clause (3) of this paragraph after receipt of such notice.

11

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clause (6) above) occurs and is continuing, the trustee by written notice to us or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of such series by written notice to us and the trustee, may, and the trustee at the request of such holders shall, declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the debt securities of such series to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal, premium and accrued and unpaid interest will be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default described in clause (6) above occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all the debt securities of such series will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the trustee or any holders. The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of such series may waive all past defaults (except with respect to nonpayment of principal, premium or interest and certain other defaults which require the consent of each noteholder affected) and rescind any such acceleration with respect to the debt securities and its consequences so long as a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has not been obtained by the trustee and all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the debt securities of such series that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived.

Subject to the provisions of the indenture relating to the duties of the trustee, if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to a series of debt securities, the trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under the indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders unless such holders have offered to the trustee reasonable indemnity or security against any loss, liability or expense. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest when due, no holder may pursue any remedy with respect to the indenture or the debt securities unless:

Subject to certain restrictions, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of such series are given the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the trustee. The trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or the indenture or that the trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other holder or that would involve the trustee in personal liability. Prior to taking any action under the indenture, the trustee will be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

The holders of any debt security, however, will have an absolute right to receive payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, such debt security as expressed therein and to institute suit for the enforcement of such payment.

The indenture provides that if a default occurs and is continuing with respect to a series of debt securities and is known to the trustee, the trustee must mail to each holder of debt securities of such series notice of the default within 90 days after it occurs; provided that in the case of any default of the character described in clause (3) above, no such notice to holders shall be given until at least 30 days after the occurrence thereof. Except in the case of a default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any debt security, the trustee may

12

withhold notice if the trustee determines that withholding notice is in the interests of the holders. In addition, we, as well as each guarantor, are required to deliver to the trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, a statement indicating whether the signers thereof know of any default that occurred during the previous year.

Modification, Amendments and Waivers

Modifications and amendments of the indenture may be made by us and the trustee with the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the debt securities of a series then outstanding under the indenture (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the debt securities). However, without the consent of each holder of an outstanding debt security affected, no amendment may, among other things:

The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of each series, on behalf of all holders of debt securities of such series, may waive compliance by the guarantors or us with certain restrictive provisions of the indenture. The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the debt securities of each series, on behalf of all holders of such series, may waive any past default under the indenture (including any such waiver obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the debt securities), except a default in the payment of principal, premium or interest or a default in respect of a provision that under the indenture that cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the holder of each debt security that is affected.

Without the consent of any holder, the trustee and we may amend the indenture to, among other things:

13

The consent of the holders is not necessary under the indenture to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment. It is sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment. After an amendment under the indenture becomes effective, we are required to transmit promptly to the holders a notice briefly describing such amendment. However, the failure to give such notice to all the holders, or any defect therein, will not impair or affect the validity of the amendment.

Concerning the Trustee

U.S. Bank National Association, as successor to Wachovia Bank, National Association, is the trustee under the indenture, and we have also appointed U.S. Bank as registrar and paying agent with regard to the debt securities. U.S. Bank also serves as trustee with respect to our 4.30% senior notes due 2021, 3.250% senior notes due 2022, 2.900% senior notes due 2022, 6.15% senior notes due 2036 and 3.700% senior notes due 2027.

Governing Law

The indenture provides that it and the debt securities will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

PLAN OF

DISTRIBUTION

We may sell the offered debt securities in and outside the United States:

The prospectus supplement will include the following information:

Sale through Underwriters or Dealers

If underwriters are used in the sale, we will execute an underwriting agreement with them regarding the debt securities. The underwriters will acquire the debt securities for their own account, subject to the conditions in the underwriting agreement. The underwriters may resell the debt securities from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. Underwriters may offer the debt securities to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by one or more managing underwriters or directly by one or more firms acting as underwriters. Unless we inform you otherwise in the prospectus supplement, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the debt securities will be subject to certain conditions, and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the offered debt securities if they purchase any of them. The underwriters may change from time to time any initial public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers.

During and after an offering through underwriters, the underwriters may purchase and sell the debt securities in the open market. To the extent expressly set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, these transactions may include over-allotment and stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover syndicate short positions created in connection with the offering. The underwriters may also impose a penalty bid, which means that selling concessions allowed to syndicate members or other broker-dealers for the offered debt securities sold for their account may be reclaimed by the syndicate if the offered debt securities are repurchased by the syndicate in stabilizing or covering transactions. These activities may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the offered debt securities, which may be higher than the price that might otherwise prevail in the open market. If commenced, the underwriters may discontinue these activities at any time.

Some or all of the debt securities that we offer though this prospectus may be new issues of debt securities with no established trading market. Any underwriters to whom we sell our debt securities for public offering and sale may

15

make a market in those securities, but they will not be obligated to do so and they may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. Accordingly, we cannot assure you of the liquidity of, or continued trading markets for, any debt securities that we offer.

If dealers are used in the sale of the debt securities, we will sell the securities to them as principals. They may then resell the debt securities to the public at varying prices determined by the dealers at the time of resale. We will include in the prospectus supplement the names of the dealers and the terms of the transaction.

Direct Sales and Sales through Agents

We may sell the debt securities directly. In this case, no underwriters or agents would be involved. We may also sell the debt securities through agents designated from time to time. In the prospectus supplement, we will name any agent involved in the offer or sale of the offered debt securities, and we will describe any commissions payable to the agent. Unless we inform you otherwise in the prospectus supplement, any agent will agree to use its reasonable best efforts to solicit purchases for the period of its appointment.

We may sell the debt securities directly to institutional investors or others who may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 with respect to any sale of those securities. We will describe the terms of any sales of these debt securities in the prospectus supplement.

Remarketing Arrangements

Offered debt securities may also be offered and sold, if so indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, in connection with a remarketing upon their purchase, in accordance with a redemption or repayment pursuant to their terms, or otherwise, by one or more remarketing firms, acting as principals for their own accounts or as agents for us. Any remarketing firm will be identified and the terms of its agreements, if any, with us and its compensation will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Delayed Delivery Contracts

If we so indicate in the prospectus supplement, we may authorize agents, underwriters or dealers to solicit offers from certain types of institutions to purchase debt securities from us at the public offering price under delayed delivery contracts. These contracts would provide for payment and delivery on a specified date in the future. The contracts would be subject only to those conditions described in the prospectus supplement. The prospectus supplement will describe the commission payable for solicitation of those contracts.

General Information

We may have agreements with the agents, dealers, underwriters and remarketing firms to indemnify them against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute with respect to payments that the agents, dealers, underwriters or remarketing firms may be required to make. Agents, dealers, underwriters and remarketing firms may be customers of, engage in transactions with or perform services for us in the ordinary course of their businesses.
