The New Notes:

We are offering to exchange:

Company Overview

General

We are the nation’s largest owner and operator of inpatient rehabilitation hospitals in terms of patients treated and discharged, revenues and number of hospitals. As of September 30, 2015, we operated 109 inpatient rehabilitation hospitals, including one hospital that operates as a joint venture which we account for using the equity method of accounting. In addition to HealthSouth hospitals, we manage three inpatient rehabilitation units through management contracts. As of September 30, 2015, our inpatient rehabilitation hospitals had 7,422 licensed beds (excluding the one hospital that has 41 licensed beds and operates as a joint venture which we account for using the equity method of accounting). While our national network of inpatient hospitals stretches across 29 states and Puerto Rico, our inpatient hospitals are concentrated in the eastern half of the United States and Texas. We are also the nation’s fifth largest provider of Medicare-certified skilled home health services. As of September 30, 2015, we provided home health and hospice services in 164 locations across 18 states. We also provide specialized home care services in Texas and Kansas for pediatric patients with severe medical conditions.

Recent Developments

Acquisition of Operations of Reliant

On June 10, 2015, we and HealthSouth Acquisition Holdings, LLC, a newly formed subsidiary of ours (“HAH”), entered into an acquisition agreement with Reliant Holding Company, LLC, Reliant Hospital Partners, LLP (“Reliant”), Nautic Partners VI, L.P., Nautic Partners VI-A, L.P., Reliant Blocker Corp., and certain additional indemnitors. On October 1, 2015, HAH acquired, for cash, all of the equity interests of the various entities operating 11 free-standing inpatient rehabilitation hospitals with a total of 902 beds in Texas, Massachusetts and Ohio from Reliant and its affiliates (the “Reliant Acquisition”). At closing, one Reliant hospital entity had a remaining minority limited partner interest of 0.5%. The total consideration delivered at closing was approximately $730 million in cash (the “Reliant Acquisition Consideration”).

We funded the cash purchase price with the proceeds from the August 2015 issuance of the Outstanding 2024 Notes and September 2015 issuance of the Outstanding 2025 Notes, as well as cash on hand and a draw under one of the term loan facilities of our senior secured credit agreement. The other parties to the credit agreement are Barclays Bank PLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as syndication agent, Bank of America, N.A., Goldman Sachs Lending Partners LLC, and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as co-documentation agents, and various other lenders from time to time, including Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”). Wells Fargo serves as the trustee under the indentures governing our senior

unsecured notes, including the Outstanding Notes, and convertible senior subordinated notes, and an affiliate of Wells Fargo served as our financial advisor in the Reliant Acquisition.

All of Reliant’s hospitals are leased, and seven of the leases are treated as capital leases for accounting purposes. HAH assumed the lease obligations of all the acquired hospitals. The amount of the capital lease obligation to be recognized on our consolidated balance sheet is estimated at approximately $210 million.

Acquisition of Home Health Operations of CareSouth

On August 28, 2015, Advanced Homecare Management, Inc. d/b/a Encompass Home Health & Hospice and EHH Merger Sub Corporation (collectively, the “Home Health Subsidiaries”), which are indirect, non-wholly owned subsidiaries of HealthSouth, entered into a definitive agreement with CareSouth Health System, Inc. (“CareSouth”) and certain other parties to acquire CareSouth’s home health and hospice agency operations, including locations in seven states (the “CareSouth Acquisition” and, together with the Reliant Acquisition, the “Acquisitions”). On November 2, 2015, the Home Health Subsidiaries completed the CareSouth Acquisition. The total consideration delivered at closing was approximately $170 million in cash (the “CareSouth Acquisition Consideration”). We funded the transaction with cash on hand and term loan and revolver borrowings under our senior secured credit facility.

Amendments to Our Credit Agreement

On June 24, 2015, we entered into a third amendment to our credit agreement. The amendment made changes to the credit agreement to (1) provide that the leverage ratio financial covenant will be calculated on a pro forma basis, allowing any such pro forma calculation to include the effects of investments, acquisitions, mergers and operational changes, such as historical income statement items, and, to the extent projected in good faith and in a factually supportable manner, future synergies and cost savings; and (2) increase the amount of specifically permitted capitalized lease obligations from $200 million to $350 million.

On July 29, 2015, we entered into a fourth amendment to our credit agreement to (1) add $500 million of new term loan facilities, which may be drawn on or before December 31, 2015, to our existing $600 million revolving credit facility and $195 million of outstanding term loans, (2) change the maximum leverage ratio in the financial covenants applicable for the period July 2015 through June 2017 from 4.25x to 4.50x and to 4.25x from then until maturity, and (3) extend the maturity date for all borrowings under our credit agreement to July 29, 2020. As a result of the issuances of the Outstanding Notes, the capacity of the new term loan facility was reduced to $250 million, all of which has been drawn upon to fund portions of the purchase prices of the Acquisitions.

Summary of the Exchange Offers



Background	On August 7, 2015, we issued $350 million aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding 2024 Notes in an unregistered offering and on September 16, 2015, we issued $350 million aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding 2025 Notes in an unregistered offering. In connection with those offerings, we entered into registration rights agreements with respect to each series of the Outstanding Notes on August 7, 2015 and September 16, 2015, respectively (the “Registration Rights Agreements”), in which we agreed, among other things, to complete these exchange offers. Subsequent to such dates, 21 additional subsidiary guarantors joined the Registration Rights Agreements pursuant to joinder agreements.



	Under the terms of the exchange offers, you are entitled to exchange the applicable series of Outstanding Notes for the corresponding series of New Notes evidencing the same indebtedness and with substantially similar terms. You should read the discussion under the heading “Description of the New Notes” for further information regarding the New Notes.



New Notes Offered	$350,000,000 aggregate principal amount of newly issued 5.75% Senior Notes due 2024 (CUSIP No. 421924 BK6) (the “New 2024 Notes”) and $350,000,000 aggregate principal amount of newly issued 5.75% Senior Notes due 2025 (CUSIP No. 421924 BT7) (the “New 2025 Notes” and, together with the New 2024 Notes, collectively the “New Notes”), and the respective related guarantees.
Outstanding Notes	$350,000,000 aggregate principal amount of outstanding unregistered 5.75% Senior Notes due 2024 (CUSIP Nos. 421924 BP5 (Rule 144A Notes), U42268 AL3 (Regulation S Notes) and 421924 BQ3 (IAI Notes)) (the “Outstanding 2024 Notes”) and $350,000,000 aggregate principal amount of outstanding unregistered 5.75% Senior Notes due 2025 (CUSIP Nos. 421924 BR1 (Rule 144A Notes), U42268 AN9 (Regulation S Notes) and 421924 BS9 (IAI Notes)) (the “Outstanding 2025 Notes” and, together with the Outstanding 2024 Notes, collectively the “Outstanding Notes”), and the respective related guarantees.
The Exchange Offers	We are offering to exchange the applicable series of New Notes that have been registered under the Securities Act, and the respective related guarantees, for an equal principal amount and like denomination of our Outstanding Notes of the same series, and the respective related guarantees. Each series of New Notes will be part of the same series of corresponding Outstanding Notes and issued under the same indenture as such corresponding series of Outstanding Notes. We are offering to issue each series of registered New Notes and the respective related guarantees to satisfy our obligations under the Registration Rights Agreements that were entered into with the initial purchasers of the Outstanding Notes when the Outstanding Notes and the related guarantees were sold in a transaction that was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. You may tender your Outstanding Notes for exchange by following the procedures described in the section entitled “Description of the Exchange Offers” elsewhere in this prospectus.



Denominations of New Notes	Tendering holders of the Outstanding Notes must tender the Outstanding Notes in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The New Notes will be issued in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.



Tenders; Expiration Date; Withdrawal	The exchange offers will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on March 7, 2016, unless we extend or terminate the exchange offers, in which case the “Expiration Date” will mean the latest date and time to which we extend the exchange offers. If you decide to exchange your Outstanding Notes for New Notes, you must acknowledge that you are not engaging in, and do not intend to engage in, a distribution of the New Notes. You may withdraw any Outstanding Notes that you tender for exchange at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date. If we decide for any reason not to accept any Outstanding Notes you have tendered for exchange, those Outstanding Notes will be returned to you without cost promptly after the expiration or termination of the exchange offers. See “Description of the Exchange Offers—Terms of the Exchange Offers” for a more complete description of the tender and withdrawal provisions.



Settlement Date	The settlement date of the exchange offers will be as soon as practicable after the Expiration Date of the exchange offers.



Conditions to the Exchange Offers	Our obligation to consummate the exchange offers is subject to certain customary conditions, which we may assert or waive. See “Description of the Exchange Offers—Conditions to the Exchange Offers.” The exchange offers are not conditioned upon any minimum principal amount of Outstanding Notes being tendered for exchange.



Consequences of Failure to Exchange Your Outstanding Notes	Outstanding Notes that are not tendered or that are tendered but not accepted will continue to be subject to the restrictions on transfer that are described in the legend on those notes. In general, you may offer or sell your Outstanding Notes only if they are registered under, or offered or sold under an exemption from, the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Except in limited circumstances with respect to specific types of holders of Outstanding Notes, after the exchange offers are complete, you will not have any further rights under the Registration Rights Agreements, including any right to require the Company or the subsidiary guarantors to register any Outstanding Notes that you do not exchange or to pay you the additional interest that the Company and the subsidiary guarantors agreed to pay to holders of Outstanding Notes if the Company failed to timely complete the exchange offers. If you do not participate in the exchange offers, the liquidity of your Outstanding Notes could be adversely affected. See “Description of the Exchange Offers—Consequences of Failure to Exchange Outstanding Notes.”
Consequences of Exchanging Your Outstanding Notes	Based on interpretations of the staff of the SEC, we believe that you may offer for resale, resell or otherwise transfer the New Notes that we issue in the exchange offers without complying with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act if you: • acquire the New Notes issued in the exchange offers in the ordinary course of your business; • are not participating, do not intend to participate, and have no arrangement or undertaking with anyone to participate, in the distribution of any New Notes issued to you in the exchange offers; and • are not an “affiliate” of the Company or any subsidiary guarantor as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act. If any of these conditions is not satisfied and you transfer any New Notes issued to you in the exchange offers without delivering a proper prospectus or without qualifying for a registration exemption, you may incur liability under the Securities Act. We will not be responsible for or indemnify you against any liability you may incur. Any broker-dealer that acquires New Notes in the exchange offers for its own account in exchange for the corresponding series of Outstanding Notes which it acquired through market-making or other trading activities must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus when it resells or transfers any New Notes issued in the exchange offers. See “Plan of Distribution” for a description of the prospectus delivery obligations of broker-dealers in the exchange offers.
Interest on Outstanding Notes Exchanged in the Exchange Offers	On the record date for the first interest payment date for each series of New Notes offered hereby following the consummation of the exchange offers, holders of such New Notes will receive interest accruing from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid on the Outstanding Notes surrendered in exchange therefor or, if no interest has been paid, from May 1, 2015 with respect to the Outstanding 2024 Notes or September 16, 2015 with respect to the Outstanding 2025 Notes.



Certain Income Tax Considerations	The exchanges pursuant to the exchange offers will not be a taxable event for U.S. federal income tax purposes. See “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” in this prospectus. You should consult your own tax advisor as to the tax consequences to you of the exchange offers, as well as tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the New Notes.



Use of Proceeds	We will not receive any proceeds from the issuance of the New Notes in the exchange offers.

Exchange Agent	Wells Fargo is the exchange agent for the exchange offers. Wells Fargo also serves as the trustee under the indenture pursuant to which the Outstanding Notes were issued and the New Notes will be issued in these exchange offers.



Regulatory Approvals	Other than the federal securities laws, there are no federal or state regulatory requirements that we must comply with and there are no approvals that we must obtain in connection with the exchange offers.

However, certain of our subsidiaries, including HealthSouth Home Holdings, Inc., EHHI Holdings, Inc. and their respective subsidiaries (collectively, the “Home Health Subsidiaries”) and the CareSouth entities do not guarantee the Outstanding Notes and will not guarantee the New Notes. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, our existing nonguarantor subsidiaries represented in the aggregate approximately 42% of our consolidated net operating revenues and approximately 34% of our Adjusted EBITDA. As of September 30, 2015, our existing nonguarantor subsidiaries held approximately 26% of our consolidated property and equipment, net, and had approximately $331 million of outstanding indebtedness and other obligations (excluding intercompany liabilities). For a discussion of the risks relating to the guarantees, see “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Substantial Indebtedness and the New Notes—Not all of our subsidiaries will be guarantors of the New Notes. The New Notes will be structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of our nonguarantor subsidiaries.”



	The guarantees will be unsecured senior indebtedness of our subsidiary guarantors and will have the same ranking with respect to indebtedness of our subsidiary guarantors as the New Notes will have with respect to our indebtedness.

_________________________________

We previously issued $850 million aggregate principal amount of our 5.75% Senior Notes due 2024 in registered offerings (the “Registered 2024 Notes”) under the indenture governing the Outstanding 2024 Notes. The Outstanding 2024 Notes were an additional issuance of our 5.75% Senior Notes due 2024 and constitute a single class of securities with the Registered 2024 Notes and have the same terms as the Registered 2024 Notes except as provided herein. The Outstanding 2024 Notes and the Registered 2024 Notes currently trade under different CUSIP numbers and ISINs and the Outstanding 2024 Notes are not fungible with the Registered 2024 Notes for trading purposes. Holders that exchange their Outstanding 2024 Notes in the exchange offers will receive registered notes that will share a single CUSIP number with the Registered 2024 Notes, and such notes and the Registered 2024 Notes will thereafter be fungible.



Ranking	The New Notes and the related guarantees will be senior unsecured obligations of HealthSouth Corporation and our guarantor subsidiaries. The New Notes will rank equal in right of payment to our current and future senior debt, including the Registered 2024 Notes, and senior in right of payment to any subordinated debt, including our 2.00% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2043. The New Notes will be effectively subordinated to our current and future secured debt, including borrowings under our credit agreement, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt. As of September 30, 2015, as adjusted to reflect the consummation of the Acquisitions (including the incurrence of additional debt under our credit agreement to pay a portion of the Reliant Acquisition Consideration and to pay the CareSouth Acquisition Consideration) and the redemption of $50 million of the outstanding principal amount of our existing 7.75% Senior Notes due 2022 which occurred on November 30, 2015, we would have had approximately $857.1 million of senior secured indebtedness outstanding (including $292.1 million of capital lease obligations) with available borrowing capacity of approximately $445.8 million under the revolving portion of our credit agreement. See “Summary—Amendments to Our Credit Agreement” and “Description of the New Notes—Ranking.” In addition, the New Notes and the related guarantees will be structurally subordinated to any liabilities, including trade payables, of our nonguarantor subsidiaries, including the Home Health Subsidiaries and the CareSouth entities.



Optional Redemption	At any time on or after November 1, 2017, we may redeem some or all of the New 2024 Notes at the redemption prices specified in this prospectus under “Description of the New Notes—Optional Redemption,” plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date. Prior to November 1, 2017, we may also redeem some or all of the New 2024 Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date plus the Applicable Premium, as defined herein.



	At any time on or after September 15, 2020, we may redeem some or all of the New 2025 Notes at the redemption prices specified in this prospectus under “Description of the New Notes—Optional Redemption,” plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date. Prior to September 15, 2020, we may also redeem some or all of the New 2025 Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date plus the Applicable Premium, as defined herein. At any time prior to September 15, 2018, we may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the New 2025 Notes in an amount not to exceed the amount of proceeds of one or more equity offerings, at a price equal to 105.75% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date, provided that at least 65% of such aggregate principal amount of the New 2025 Notes issued remains outstanding after the redemption.



	See “Description of the New Notes—Optional Redemption.”



Change of Control	Upon the occurrence of a change of control, as defined in the indenture, each holder of the New Notes will have the right to require us to repurchase such holder’s New Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase. See “Description of the New Notes—Change of Control.”



Certain Covenants	The indenture contains covenants that, among other things, limit our ability and the ability of certain of our subsidiaries to:



	•		incur or guarantee indebtedness;



	•		pay dividends on, or redeem or repurchase, our capital stock; or repay, redeem or repurchase our subordinated obligations;



	•		issue or sell certain types of preferred stock;



	•		make investments;



	•		incur obligations that restrict the ability of our subsidiaries to make dividends or other payments to us;



	•		sell assets;



	•		engage in transactions with affiliates;



	•		create certain liens;



	•		enter into sale/leaseback transactions; and



	•		merge, consolidate, or transfer all or substantially all of our assets.



Absence of Trading Market	The New Notes are a new issue of securities and there is currently no established trading market for the New Notes. We do not intend to apply for a listing of the New Notes on any securities exchange or an automated dealer quotation system. Accordingly, there can be no assurance as to the development or liquidity of any market for the New Notes. The initial purchasers of the Outstanding Notes have advised us that they currently intend to make a market in the New Notes. However, they are not obligated to do so, and any market making with respect to the New Notes may be discontinued without notice. Holders that exchange their Outstanding 2024 Notes in the exchange offers will receive registered notes that will share a single CUSIP number with the Registered 2024 Notes, and we expect that such notes and the Registered 2024 Notes will thereafter be fungible.



Trustee	Wells Fargo Bank, National Association.
Governing Law	The New Notes and the related guarantees are governed by the laws of the State of New York.



Risk Factors	You should carefully consider all information set forth in this prospectus and, in particular, you should carefully read the section entitled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 13 of this prospectus.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in the New Notes involves risks. Before making a decision to invest in the New Notes, you should carefully consider, in addition to the risk factors set forth below, the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, including under the caption “Risk Factors” in Item 1A, and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2015, June 30, 2015 and September 30, 2015, including under the caption “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A, which are incorporated by reference herein, as well as the other information contained or incorporated by reference into this prospectus. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial could also have a material adverse effect on our business operations.

Risks Related to Our Business

For a discussion of the risks and uncertainties related to our business, please read the risks described under the caption “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 and in Part II, Item 1A of our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2015, June 30, 2015 and September 30, 2015, which are incorporated by reference herein.

Risk Factors Related to the Exchange Offers

The consummation of the exchange offers may not occur.

We are not obligated to complete the exchange offers under certain circumstances. See “Description of the Exchange Offers—Conditions to the Exchange Offers.” Even if the exchange offers are completed, they may not be completed on the schedule described in this prospectus. Accordingly, holders participating in the exchange offers may have to wait longer than expected to receive their New Notes, during which time those holders of the Outstanding Notes will not be able to effect transfers of their Outstanding Notes tendered in the exchange offers.

You may be required to deliver prospectuses and comply with other requirements in connection with any resale of the New Notes.

If you tender your Outstanding Notes in the exchange offers for the purpose of participating in a distribution of the New Notes or if you are an “affiliate,” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act, of the Company, you will be required to comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale transaction. Each broker-dealer who holds Outstanding Notes acquired for its own account as a result of market-making or other trading activities and who receives New Notes for its own account in exchange for such Outstanding Notes pursuant to the exchange offers must acknowledge in the letter of transmittal that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such New Notes.

If you wish to tender your Outstanding Notes for exchange, you must comply with the requirements described in this prospectus.

You will receive New Notes in exchange for your Outstanding Notes only after the exchange agent receives such Outstanding Notes, a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal, or agent’s message, as applicable, and all other required documentation within the time limits described below. If you wish to tender your Outstanding Notes in exchange for New Notes, you should allow sufficient time for delivery. Neither the exchange agent nor the Company has any duty to give you notice of defects or irregularities with respect to tenders of Outstanding Notes for exchange. Outstanding Notes that are not tendered or are tendered but not accepted will, following consummation of the exchange offers, continue to be subject to the existing restrictions upon transfer relating to the Outstanding Notes.

There may be adverse consequences if you do not exchange your Outstanding Notes for New Notes.

If you do not exchange your Outstanding Notes for New Notes in the exchange offers, you will continue to be subject to restrictions on transfer of your Outstanding Notes. In general, the Outstanding Notes may not be offered or sold unless they are registered or exempt from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Except as required by the Registration Rights Agreements, we do not intend to register resales of the Outstanding Notes under the Securities Act. You should refer to the section entitled “Description of the Exchange Offers” for information about how to tender your Outstanding Notes.

The tender of Outstanding Notes under the exchange offers will reduce the outstanding amount of the Outstanding Notes, which may have an adverse effect upon, and increase the volatility of, the market prices of the Outstanding Notes due to a reduction in liquidity.

Risks Related to Our Substantial Indebtedness and the New Notes

Our leverage or level of indebtedness may impair our financial condition, may prevent us from fulfilling our obligations under the indenture and our other debt instruments, and may have other negative consequences for our business.

As of September 30, 2015, we had approximately $2.7 billion of long-term debt outstanding (including that portion of long-term debt classified as current and excluding $82.1 million in capital lease obligations). As of September 30, 2015, as adjusted to reflect the consummation of the Acquisitions (including the incurrence of additional debt under our credit agreement to pay a portion of the Reliant Acquisition Consideration and to pay the CareSouth Acquisition Consideration) and the redemption of $50 million of the outstanding principal amount of our existing 7.75% Senior Notes due 2022 which occurred on November 30, 2015, that long-term debt outstanding would have been approximately $2.9 billion (excluding $292.1 million of capital lease obligations).

Our substantial indebtedness could have important consequences to you, including:


•	making it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to the New Notes;


•	limiting our ability to borrow additional amounts to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, debt service requirements, execution of our business strategy and other general corporate purposes;


•	requiring us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to pay principal and interest on our debt, which would reduce availability of our cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, execution of our business strategy and other general corporate purposes;


•	making us more vulnerable to adverse changes in general economic, industry and competitive conditions, in government regulation and in our business by limiting our flexibility in planning for, and making it more difficult for us to react quickly to, changing conditions;


•	placing us at a competitive disadvantage compared with our competitors that have less debt; and


•	exposing us to risks inherent in interest rate fluctuations because some of our borrowings will be at variable rates of interest, which could result in higher interest expense in the event of increases in interest rates.

We may not be able to generate sufficient cash to service all of our indebtedness, including the New Notes, and may be forced to take other actions to satisfy our obligations under our indebtedness which may not be successful.

We are required to use a substantial portion of our cash flow to service our debt. Although we expect to make scheduled interest payments and principal reductions, we cannot assure you that changes in our business or other factors will not occur that may have the effect of preventing us from satisfying obligations under the indenture and our other debt instruments. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow from operations in the future to service our debt and meet our other needs, we may have to refinance all or a portion of our debt, obtain additional financing or reduce expenditures or sell assets that we deem necessary to our business. We cannot assure you that any of these measures would be possible or that any additional financing could be obtained. A return to tight credit markets will make additional financing more expensive and difficult to obtain. The inability to obtain additional financing could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and on our ability to meet our obligations to you under the New Notes.

Despite current indebtedness levels, we may still be able to incur more debt. This could further exacerbate the risks associated with our substantial indebtedness.

Subject to specified limitations, the indenture governing the New Notes, the indentures governing our other senior notes and senior subordinated notes, and our credit agreement permit us and our subsidiaries to incur material additional debt, including secured debt. If new debt is added to our or any of our subsidiaries’ current debt levels, the risks described in the immediately preceding risk factor could intensify. See “Description of the New Notes—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Indebtedness” for additional information.

The restrictive covenants in our credit agreement, the indenture governing the New Notes, and the indentures governing our other senior notes could affect our ability to execute aspects of our business plan successfully.

The indenture governing the New Notes, the indentures governing our other senior notes and the terms of our credit agreement do, and our future debt instruments may, contain various provisions that limit our ability and the ability of certain of our subsidiaries to, among other things:


•	incur or guarantee indebtedness;


•	pay dividends on, or redeem or repurchase, our capital stock or repay, redeem or repurchase our subordinated obligations;


•	issue or sell certain types of preferred stock;


•	make investments;


•	incur obligations that restrict the ability of our subsidiaries to make dividends or other payments to us;


•	sell assets;


•	engage in transactions with affiliates;


•	create certain liens;


•	enter into sale/leaseback transactions; and


•	merge, consolidate or transfer all or substantially all of our assets.

These covenants could adversely affect our ability to finance our future operations or capital needs and pursue available business opportunities.

In addition, our credit agreement requires us to maintain specified financial ratios and satisfy certain financial condition tests. Although we were in compliance with the financial ratios and financial condition tests set forth in our credit agreement as of September 30, 2015, we cannot provide assurance we will continue to be. The performance of any entities we acquire or whose operations we acquire, including that of the Reliant entities and/or the CareSouth entities which we recently acquired, may affect our ability to meet those financial ratios and financial condition tests. Furthermore, events beyond our control, including changes in general economic and business conditions, may affect our ability to meet those financial ratios and financial condition tests. If there is a severe downturn in our earnings and we have outstanding borrowings under our credit agreement at the time, a rapid increase in interest rates could impair our ability to comply with those financial ratios and financial condition tests and we may need to obtain waivers or other relief from the required proportion of the lenders to avoid being in default. If we try to obtain a waiver or other relief from the required lenders, we may not be able to obtain it or such relief might have a material cost to us or be on terms less favorable than those under our existing debt. If a default occurs, the lenders could exercise their rights, including declaring all the funds borrowed (together with accrued and unpaid interest) to be immediately due and payable, terminating their commitments or instituting foreclosure proceedings against our assets securing the funds borrowed, which, in turn, could cause the default and acceleration of the maturity of our other indebtedness. A breach of any other restrictive covenants contained in our credit agreement, the indenture governing the New Notes or the indentures governing our other senior notes would also (after giving effect to applicable grace periods, if any) result in an event of default with the same outcome.

The New Notes and the related guarantees will not be secured by any of our assets. Our credit agreement is secured and our senior secured lenders have a prior claim on substantially all of the personal property of the Company and our subsidiary guarantors. The New Notes and the related guarantees will be effectively subordinated to our secured debt to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt.

The New Notes and the related guarantees will not be secured by any of our assets. However, our credit agreement is secured by substantially all of the personal property of the Company and our subsidiary guarantors, including the stock of substantially all of our domestic wholly-owned subsidiaries (including future subsidiaries, if any). If we become insolvent or are liquidated, or if payment under any of the instruments governing our secured debt is accelerated, the lenders under those instruments will be entitled to exercise the remedies available to a secured lender under applicable law and pursuant to the documents governing such debt. Accordingly, the lenders under our credit agreement have a prior claim on substantially all of the personal property of the Company and our subsidiary

guarantors securing the debt owed to them. In that event, because the New Notes and the related guarantees will not be secured by any of our assets, it is possible that our remaining assets might be insufficient to satisfy your claims in full. See Note 8, Long-term Debt, to the consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 and Note 4, Long-term Debt, to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2015 (which are incorporated by reference herein) and “Description of the New Notes—Certain Covenants” in this prospectus for additional information.

As of September 30, 2015, we had $345.0 million in senior secured indebtedness outstanding (excluding $82.1 million of capital lease obligations) and $540.8 million of available borrowing capacity under the revolving portion of our credit agreement. As of September 30, 2015, as adjusted to reflect the consummation of the Acquisitions (including the incurrence of additional debt under our credit agreement to pay a portion of the Reliant Acquisition Consideration and to pay the CareSouth Acquisition Consideration) and the redemption of $50 million of the outstanding principal amount of our existing 7.75% Senior Notes due 2022 which occurred on November 30, 2015, we would have had approximately $857.1 million of senior secured indebtedness outstanding (excluding $292.1 million of capital lease obligations), with available borrowing capacity of approximately $445.8 million under our revolving credit facility. We will be permitted to borrow substantial additional secured indebtedness in the future under the terms of the indenture. See “Description of the New Notes—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Indebtedness,” and “Description of the New Notes—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Liens.”

Not all of our subsidiaries will be guarantors of the New Notes. The New Notes will be structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of our nonguarantor subsidiaries.

Not all of our subsidiaries will guarantee the New Notes. The New Notes will be guaranteed by all of our current and future subsidiaries that guarantee borrowings under our credit agreement and capital markets debt. Certain of our wholly owned subsidiaries and all of our non-wholly owned subsidiaries, including the Home Health Subsidiaries and the CareSouth entities, through which we conduct a significant portion of our business, will not guarantee the New Notes due to, among other things, restrictions in their constituent documents or other agreements. These nonguarantor subsidiaries do not guarantee borrowings under our credit agreement. The New Notes will be structurally subordinated to the outstanding indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, of our nonguarantor subsidiaries. Assuming we had completed the exchange offers on September 30, 2015 and adjusting to reflect the consummation of the Acquisitions (including the incurrence of additional debt under our Credit Agreement to pay a portion of the Reliant Acquisition Consideration and to pay the CareSouth Acquisition Consideration) and the redemption of $50 million of the outstanding principal amount of our existing 7.75% Senior Notes due 2022 which occurred on November 30, 2015, the New Notes would have been structurally subordinated to approximately $331 million of indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables (excluding intercompany liabilities) of our existing nonguarantor subsidiaries.

Our existing nonguarantor subsidiaries generated approximately 42% of our consolidated net operating revenues and approximately 34% of our Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. As of September 30, 2015, our existing nonguarantor subsidiaries held approximately 26% of our consolidated property and equipment, net. In the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of any of our nonguarantor subsidiaries, holders of their indebtedness and their trade creditors will generally be entitled to payment of their claims from the assets of those subsidiaries before any assets are made available for distribution to us.

The lenders under our credit agreement have the discretion to release the subsidiary guarantors under the credit agreement under certain circumstances, which will cause those subsidiary guarantors to be released from their guarantees of the New Notes if they are not guaranteeing any capital markets debt.

The lenders under our credit agreement have the discretion to release the guarantees under the credit agreement under certain circumstances. While any obligations under the credit agreement remain outstanding, any guarantee of the New Notes may be released without action by, or consent of, any holder of the New Notes or the trustee under the indenture, if the related guarantor is no longer a guarantor of obligations under the credit agreement and is not then a guarantor or obligor of any capital markets indebtedness in addition to the New Notes. See “Description of the New Notes—Guarantees.” Holders of the New Notes will not have a claim as a creditor against any subsidiary that is no longer a guarantor of the New Notes, and the indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, of those subsidiaries will be structurally senior to claims of any holder of the New Notes.

We may not have the funds to purchase the New Notes and our other senior notes and senior subordinated notes upon a change of control offer as required by the indenture governing the New Notes and the indentures governing our other senior notes.

Upon a change of control, as defined in the indenture governing the New Notes, subject to certain conditions, we are required to offer to repurchase all outstanding notes at 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of

repurchase. The indentures governing our other senior notes also require us to offer to repurchase all of our other outstanding senior notes at 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase, in the event of a change of control. The source of funds for that purchase of the New Notes and other senior notes will be our available cash, cash generated from our operations or the operations of our subsidiaries or other potential sources, including borrowings, sales of assets or sales of equity. We cannot assure you that sufficient funds from such sources will be available at the time of any change of control to make required repurchases of the New Notes and other senior notes tendered. In addition, the terms of our credit agreement limit our ability to repurchase your New Notes and other senior notes, and provide that certain change of control events constitute an event of default thereunder. Our future debt agreements may contain similar restrictions and provisions. If the holders of the New Notes or our other senior notes exercise their right to require us to repurchase all the New Notes or other senior notes upon a change of control, the financial effect of this repurchase could cause a default under our other debt, even if the change of control itself would not cause a default. Accordingly, it is possible that we will not have sufficient funds at the time of the change of control to make the required repurchase of the New Notes, our other senior notes and our other debt, or that restrictions in our credit agreement, the indenture governing the New Notes and the indentures governing our other senior notes will not allow such repurchases. In addition, certain corporate events, such as leveraged recapitalizations that would increase the level of our indebtedness, would not constitute a “change of control” under the indentures. See “Description of the New Notes—Change of Control” in this prospectus for additional information.

There is no assurance that any active trading market will develop for the New Notes.

There is no established trading market for the New Notes, or for the Outstanding Notes. We do not intend to apply for the New Notes to be listed on any securities exchange or to arrange for quotation on any automated dealer quotation system. You may not be able to sell your New Notes at a particular time or at favorable prices. As a result, we cannot assure you as to the liquidity of any trading market for the New Notes or as to whether any market will develop or be maintained. Accordingly, you may be required to bear the financial risk of your investment in the New Notes indefinitely. If a trading market were to develop, future trading prices of the New Notes may be volatile and will depend on many factors, including:



	•		the number of holders of New Notes;



	•		our operating performance and financial condition;



	•		the market for similar securities;



	•		the interest of securities dealers in making a market in the New Notes; and



	•		prevailing interest rates.

Historically, the market for non-investment grade debt has been subject to disruptions that have caused substantial volatility in the prices of securities similar to the New Notes. We cannot assure you that the market, if any, for the New Notes will be free from similar disruptions or that any disruptions may not adversely affect the prices at which you may sell your New Notes. Therefore, we cannot assure you that you will be able to sell your New Notes at a particular time or that the price that you receive when you sell will be favorable.

Federal and state statutes could allow courts, under specific circumstances, to void the subsidiary guarantees and require note holders to return payments received from subsidiary guarantors.

Under U.S. bankruptcy law and comparable provisions of state fraudulent transfer laws, a court could void a subsidiary guarantee or claims related to a guarantor or void any payment by a subsidiary guarantor pursuant to the New Notes or a subsidiary guarantee and require that payment to be returned to such subsidiary guarantor or to a fund for the benefit of the creditors of the subsidiary guarantor if, among other things, the subsidiary guarantor, at the time it incurred the indebtedness evidenced by its subsidiary guarantee:


•	intended to hinder, delay or defraud any present or future creditor;


•	received less than reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration for the incurrence of such indebtedness at a time when it:


•	was insolvent or rendered insolvent by reason of such incurrence;


•	was engaged in a business or transaction for which the subsidiary guarantor’s remaining assets constituted unreasonably small capital; or


•	intended to incur, or believed that it would incur, debts beyond the subsidiary guarantor’s ability to pay such debts as they mature.

The measures of insolvency for purposes of fraudulent transfer laws will vary depending upon the governing law in any proceeding to determine whether a fraudulent transfer has occurred. Generally, however, a subsidiary guarantor would be considered insolvent if:


•	the sum of its debts, including contingent liabilities, was greater than the fair saleable value of all of its assets;


•	the present fair saleable value of its assets was less than the amount that would be required to pay its probable liability on its existing debts, including contingent liabilities, as they become absolute and mature; or


•	it could not pay its debts as they become due.

There can be no assurance, however, as to what standard a court would apply in making such determinations or that a court would agree with our or any subsidiary guarantors’ conclusions in this regard.

The indenture contains a “savings clause” intended to limit each subsidiary guarantor’s liability under its guarantee to the maximum amount that will result in the obligations of such subsidiary guarantor under its guarantee of the New Notes not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law. However, as was demonstrated in a bankruptcy case originating in the State of Florida which was affirmed by the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals on other grounds, this provision may not be effective to protect the subsidiary guarantees from being voided under fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer laws. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that this provision will be upheld as intended.

If a guarantee is deemed to be a fraudulent transfer, it could be voided altogether, or it could be subordinated to all other debts of the guarantor. In such case, any payment by the guarantor pursuant to its guarantee could be required to be returned to the guarantor or to a fund for the benefit of the creditors of the guarantor. If a guarantee is voided or held unenforceable for any other reason, holders of the New Notes would cease to have a claim against the subsidiary guarantor based on the guarantee and would be creditors only of the Company and any guarantor whose guarantee was not similarly voided or otherwise held unenforceable.

Finally, as a court of equity, the bankruptcy court may subordinate the claims in respect of the New Notes to other claims against us under the principal of equitable subordination if the court determines that (1) the holder of New Notes engaged in some type of inequitable conduct, (2) the inequitable conduct resulted in injury to our other creditors or conferred an unfair advantage upon holders of New Notes and (3) equitable subordination is not inconsistent with the provisions of the bankruptcy code.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any proceeds from the issuance of the New Notes in the exchange offers. In consideration for issuing the applicable series of the New Notes, we will receive an equal principal amount of the corresponding series of the Outstanding Notes. The Outstanding Notes surrendered in exchange for the New Notes will be retired and cancelled.

RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES

The following table sets forth the consolidated ratios of earnings to fixed charges for HealthSouth and its subsidiaries for the periods indicated:



Nine months ended September 30, 2015	Year ended December 31,
	2014	2013	2012	2011	2010
3.5	4.0	4.2	3.9	2.7	2.3

In computing the ratio of earnings to fixed charges: (1) earnings have been based on income from continuing operations before income taxes, fixed charges (exclusive of interest capitalized), and distributed income of equity investees and (2) fixed charges consist of interest and amortization of debt discounts and fees (including amounts capitalized) and the estimated interest portion of rents.

DESCRIPTION OF THE EXCHANGE OFFERS

Purpose of the Exchange Offers

On August 7, 2015, we issued $350 million aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding 2024 Notes and on September 16, 2015, we issued $350 million aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding 2025 Notes. In connection with those issuances, we entered into Registration Rights Agreements on August 7, 2015 and September 16, 2015 with respect to each series of the Outstanding Notes. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreements, the Company and the subsidiary guarantors agreed that they will, at their expense, for the benefit of the holders of the Outstanding Notes:



	•		file a registration statement (“Exchange Offer Registration Statement”) within 180 days after the issue date of the Outstanding Notes, as applicable, covering an offer to the holders of the Outstanding Notes to exchange all Outstanding Notes for the New Notes;



	•		use commercially reasonable efforts to have the Exchange Offer Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC within 240 days after the issue date of the Outstanding Notes, as applicable;



	•		commence the exchange offers promptly after the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC;



	•		use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective for not less than 30 days (or longer, if required by applicable law) after the date notice of the exchange offers is sent to the holders; and
	•		use commercially reasonable efforts to consummate the exchange offers no later than 40 days (or longer, if required by applicable law) after the date on which the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC, but in no event later than 300 days after the issue date of the Outstanding Notes, as applicable (or longer, if required by applicable law).

For each Outstanding Note validly tendered pursuant to the exchange offers and not properly withdrawn by the holder thereof, the holder of such Outstanding Note will receive a New Note having a principal amount equal to that of the tendered Outstanding Note. Interest on each New Note will accrue from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid on the Outstanding Notes in exchange therefor or, if no interest has been paid, from May 1, 2015 with respect to the Outstanding 2024 Notes or September 16, 2015 with respect to the Outstanding 2025 Notes. Under existing SEC no-action letter interpretations, the New Notes and the related guarantees will generally be freely transferable by holders other than affiliates of the Company or any subsidiary guarantor after the exchange offers without further registration under the Securities Act.

Each broker-dealer that receives New Notes for its own account in exchange for Outstanding Notes, where such Outstanding Notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such New Notes. See “Plan of Distribution.”

Terms of the Exchange Offers

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this prospectus and the letter of transmittal, we will accept any and all Outstanding Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the Expiration Date. We will issue $1,000 principal amount of the New Notes in exchange for each $1,000 principal amount of the Outstanding Notes validly tendered and accepted pursuant to the exchange offers.

We will not pay any accrued and unpaid interest on the Outstanding Notes that we acquire in the exchange offers. Instead, interest on the New Notes will accrue from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid on the Outstanding Notes surrendered in exchange therefor or, if no interest has been paid, from May 1, 2015 with respect to the Outstanding 2024 Notes or September 16, 2015 with respect to the Outstanding 2025 Notes.

Tendering holders of the Outstanding Notes must tender the Outstanding Notes in minimum denominations of $2,000, and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The New Notes will be issued in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

The terms of the New Notes will be identical in all material respects to the terms of the Outstanding Notes, except that:



	(1)	we have registered the New Notes under the Securities Act and therefore these New Notes will not bear legends restricting their transfer; and



	(2)	specified rights under the applicable Registration Rights Agreement, including the provisions providing for payment of additional interest in specified circumstances relating to the exchange offers, will be eliminated for all the New Notes.

The New Notes will evidence the same debt as the Outstanding Notes. The New Notes will be issued under the same indenture with respect to each series and will be entitled to the same benefits under the applicable indenture as the Outstanding Notes being exchanged. As of the date of this prospectus, $350 million aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding 2024 Notes are outstanding and $350 million aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding 2025 Notes are outstanding. The Outstanding Notes accepted for exchange will be retired and cancelled and not reissued.

Except as described under “Form, Book-Entry Procedures and Transfer,” we will issue the New Notes in the form of one or more global notes registered in the name of DTC or its nominee, and each beneficial owner’s interest in it will be transferable in book-entry form through DTC.

We will conduct the exchange offers in accordance with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder.

We will be considered to have accepted validly tendered Outstanding Notes if and when we have given oral or written notice to that effect to the exchange agent, with written confirmation of any oral notice to be given promptly thereafter. The exchange agent will act as agent for the tendering holders for the purposes of receiving the New Notes from us.

If we do not accept any tendered Outstanding Notes for exchange because of an invalid tender, the occurrence of the other events described in this prospectus or otherwise, we will return these Outstanding Notes, without expense, to the tendering holder as soon as practicable after the Expiration Date of the exchange offers.

Holders who tender the Outstanding Notes will not be required to pay brokerage commissions or fees or, subject to the instructions in the letter of transmittal, transfer taxes on exchange of the Outstanding Notes in connection with the exchange offers. We will pay all charges and expenses, other than certain applicable taxes in certain circumstances, in connection with the exchange offers. See “—Fees and Expenses” and “—Transfer Taxes.”

If we successfully complete the exchange offers, any Outstanding Notes which holders do not tender or which we do not accept in the exchange offers will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest. The holders of the Outstanding Notes after the exchange offers in general will not have further rights under the applicable Registration Rights Agreement, including registration rights and any rights to additional interest. Holders wishing to transfer the Outstanding Notes would have to rely on exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

Expiration Date; Extensions; Amendments; Termination

For purposes of the exchange offers, the term “Expiration Date” means 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on March 7, 2016, subject to our right to extend that time and date in our sole discretion, in which case the Expiration Date means the latest time and date to which the exchange offers are extended.

We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, by giving oral or written notice to the exchange agent, to:



	•		extend the exchange offers;



	•		terminate the exchange offers if a condition to our obligation to exchange the Outstanding Notes for the New Notes is not satisfied or waived on or prior to the Expiration Date; and



	•		amend the exchange offers.

We will notify holders of the Outstanding Notes of any extension, amendment or termination of the exchange offers by press release or other public announcement. We will announce any extension of the Expiration Date no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the first business day after the previously scheduled Expiration Date. We have no other obligation to publish, advertise or otherwise communicate any information about any extension, amendment or termination.

Settlement Date

We will deliver the New Notes on the settlement date, which will be as soon as practicable after the Expiration Date of the exchange offers. We will not be obligated to deliver the New Notes unless the exchange offers are consummated.

Effect of Tender

Any tender by a holder, and our subsequent acceptance of that tender, of the Outstanding Notes will constitute a binding agreement between that holder and us upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the exchange offers described in this prospectus and in the letter of transmittal. The acceptance of the exchange offers by a tendering holder of the Outstanding Notes will constitute the agreement by that holder to deliver good and marketable title to the tendered Outstanding Notes, free and clear of any and all liens, restrictions, charges, pledges, security interests, encumbrances or rights of any kind of third parties.

Absence of Dissenters’ Rights

Holders of the Outstanding Notes do not have any appraisal or dissenters’ rights in connection with the exchange offers.

Procedures for Tendering

When the holder of Outstanding Notes tenders and we accept Outstanding Notes for exchange, a binding agreement between us and the tendering holder is created, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this prospectus and the accompanying letter of transmittal. Except as set forth below, a holder of Outstanding Notes who wishes to tender Outstanding Notes for exchange must, on or prior to the Expiration Date:



	•		transmit a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal, including all other documents required by such letter of transmittal, to Wells Fargo Bank National Association, the exchange agent, at the address set forth below under the heading “—The Exchange Agent”; or
	•		if Outstanding Notes are tendered pursuant to the book-entry procedures set forth below, the tendering holder must transmit an agent’s message to the exchange agent at the address set forth below under the heading “—The Exchange Agent.”

In addition, either:



	•		the exchange agent must receive the certificates for the Outstanding Notes and the letter of transmittal;



	•		the exchange agent must receive, on or prior to the Expiration Date, a timely confirmation of the book-entry transfer of the Outstanding Notes being tendered into the exchange agent’s applicable account at DTC, along with the letter of transmittal or an agent’s message; or



	•		the holder must comply with the guaranteed delivery procedures described below.

The term “agent’s message” means a message, transmitted by DTC to and received by the exchange agent and forming a part of a book-entry transfer, referred to as a “book-entry confirmation,” which states that DTC has received an express acknowledgment that the tendering holder has received and agrees to be bound by the letter of transmittal and that we may enforce the letter of transmittal against such holder.

The method of delivery of the Outstanding Notes, the letter of transmittal and all other required documents is at the election and risk of the holder. If such delivery is by mail, we recommend registered mail, properly insured, with return receipt requested. In all cases, you should allow sufficient time to assure timely delivery. No letters of transmittal or Outstanding Notes should be sent directly to us.

Signatures on a letter of transmittal or a notice of withdrawal, as the case may be, must be guaranteed unless the Outstanding Notes surrendered for exchange are tendered:



	•		by a holder of Outstanding Notes who has not completed the box entitled “Special Issuance Instructions” or “Special Delivery Instruction” on the letter of transmittal; or



	•		for the account of an eligible institution.

An “eligible institution” is a firm which is a member of a registered national securities exchange or a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or a commercial bank or trust company having an office or correspondent in the United States.

If signatures on a letter of transmittal or notice of withdrawal are required to be guaranteed, the guarantor must be an eligible institution. If Outstanding Notes are registered in the name of a person other than the signer of the letter of transmittal, the Outstanding Notes surrendered for exchange must be endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer or exchange, in satisfactory form as determined by us in our sole discretion, duly executed by the registered holder with the holder’s signature guaranteed by an eligible institution. If trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of corporations or others acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity sign the letter of transmittal or any Outstanding Notes or any power of attorney, such persons should so indicate when signing, and you must submit proper evidence satisfactory to us of such person’s authority to so act unless we waive this requirement.

We will determine all questions as to the validity, form, eligibility, including time of receipt, and acceptance of Outstanding Notes tendered for exchange in our sole discretion. Our determination will be final and binding. We reserve the absolute right to:



	•		reject any and all tenders of any Outstanding Notes improperly tendered;



	•		refuse to accept any Outstanding Notes if, in our judgment or the judgment of our counsel, acceptance of such Outstanding Notes may be deemed unlawful; and



	•		waive any defects or irregularities or conditions of the exchange offers as to any particular Outstanding Notes either before or after the Expiration Date, including the right to waive the ineligibility of any class of holder who seeks to tender Outstanding Notes in the exchange offers.

Our interpretation of the terms and conditions of the exchange offers as to any particular Outstanding Notes either before or after the Expiration Date, including the letter of transmittal and the instructions to it, will be final and binding on all parties. Holders must cure any defects and irregularities in connection with tenders of Outstanding Notes for exchange within such reasonable period of time as we will determine, unless we waive such defects or irregularities. Neither we, the exchange agent nor any other person will be under any duty to give notification of any defect or irregularity with respect to any tender of Outstanding Notes for exchange, nor will any such persons incur any liability for failure to give such notification.

By tendering Outstanding Notes, each holder will represent to us that, among other things: (i) the person acquiring the New Notes in the exchange offers is acquiring them in the ordinary course of its business, whether or not such person is the holder; (ii) neither the holder nor such other person has any arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the public distribution (within the meaning of the Securities Act) of such New Notes in violation of the provisions of the Securities Act; (iii) neither the holder nor such other person is an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) of the Company or any subsidiary guarantor, or if the holder or such other person is an affiliate, it will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale of New Notes to the extent applicable; and (iv) if such holder or such other person is a broker-dealer that will receive New Notes for its own account in exchange for Outstanding Notes acquired as a result of market-making or other trading activities, it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such New Notes.

If any holder or any such other person is an affiliate of the Company or any subsidiary guarantor, or is engaged in or intends to engage in or has an arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in a public distribution of the New Notes, or is a broker-dealer who purchased Outstanding Notes from us to resell pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act or any other available exemption under the Securities Act, such holder or any such other person:



	•		may not rely on the applicable interpretations of the staff of the SEC; and



	•		must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale transaction.

If you have any questions or need help in exchanging your Outstanding Notes, please contact the exchange agent at the address or telephone number set forth below.

Participating Broker-Dealers. Each broker-dealer that receives New Notes for its own account in exchange for Outstanding Notes, where such Outstanding Notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it may be a statutory underwriter and that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such New Notes. The letter of transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act.

Book-Entry Delivery Procedures. All of the Outstanding Notes were issued in book-entry form, and all of the Outstanding Notes are currently represented by global certificates registered in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of DTC. We have confirmed with DTC that the Outstanding Notes may be tendered using DTC’s automatic tender offer program (“ATOP”). The exchange agent will make a request to establish an account at DTC for purposes of each of the exchange offers within two business days after the date of this prospectus. Any financial institution that is a participant in DTC’s system must make book-entry delivery of Outstanding Notes denominated in dollars by causing DTC to transfer the Outstanding Notes into the exchange agent’s applicable account at DTC in accordance with DTC’s procedures for transfer. Such participant should transmit its acceptance to DTC on or prior to the Expiration Date or comply with the guaranteed delivery procedures described below. DTC will verify such acceptance, execute a book-entry transfer of the tendered Outstanding Notes into the exchange agent’s applicable account at DTC and then send to the exchange agent confirmation of such book-entry transfer. The confirmation of such book-entry transfer will include an agent’s message confirming that DTC has received an express acknowledgment from such participant that such participant has received and agrees to be bound by the letter of transmittal and that we may enforce the letter of transmittal against such participant. However, either the letter of transmittal or facsimile thereof or an agent’s message, as applicable, with any required signature guarantees and any other required documents, must:



	•		be transmitted to and received by the exchange agent at the address set forth below under “—The Exchange Agent” on or prior to the Expiration Date; or



	•		comply with the guaranteed delivery procedures described below.

Guaranteed Delivery Procedures. If you wish to tender your Outstanding Notes but your Outstanding Notes are not immediately available or you cannot deliver your Outstanding Notes, the letter of transmittal or any other required documents to the exchange agent or comply with the procedures under the ATOP, on or prior to the Expiration Date, you may still tender if:



	•		the tender is made through an eligible institution;



	•		prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date, the exchange agent receives from such eligible institution a properly completed and duly executed notice of guaranteed delivery, substantially in the form we have provided, by facsimile transmission, mail or hand delivery, setting forth the name and address of the holder of the Outstanding Notes being tendered and the amount of the Outstanding Notes being tendered. The notice of guaranteed delivery will state that the tender of such Outstanding Notes is being made and guarantee that within three business days after the date of execution of the notice of guaranteed delivery, the certificates for all physically tendered Outstanding Notes, in proper form for transfer, or a book-entry confirmation, as the case may be, together with a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal or agent’s message with any required signature guarantees and any other documents required by the letter of transmittal will be deposited by the eligible institution with the exchange agent; and
	•		the exchange agent receives the certificates for all physically tendered Outstanding Notes, in proper form for transfer, or a book-entry confirmation, as the case may be, together with a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal or agent’s message with any required signature guarantees and any other documents required by the letter of transmittal, within three business days after the date of execution of the notice of guaranteed delivery.

Acceptance of Outstanding Notes for Exchange; Delivery of New Notes Issued in the Exchange Offers

Upon satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions to the exchange offers, we will accept, promptly after the Expiration Date, all properly tendered Outstanding Notes of the applicable series and will issue New Notes of the corresponding series registered under the Securities Act. For purposes of the exchange offers, we will be deemed to have accepted properly tendered Outstanding Notes for exchange when, as and if we have given oral or written notice to the exchange agent, with written confirmation of any oral notice to be given promptly thereafter. See “Description of the Exchange Offers—Conditions to the Exchange Offers” for a discussion of the conditions that must be satisfied before we accept any Outstanding Notes for exchange.

For each Outstanding Note accepted for exchange, the holder will receive a New Note of the corresponding series registered under the Securities Act having a principal amount equal to, and in the denomination of, that of the surrendered Outstanding Note. Accordingly, registered holders of New Notes on the relevant record date for the first interest payment date following the consummation of the exchange offers will receive interest accruing from the most recent date to which interest has been paid on the corresponding series of Outstanding Notes surrendered in exchange therefor or, if no interest has been paid, from May 1, 2015 with respect to the Outstanding 2024 Notes or September 16, 2015 with respect to the Outstanding 2025 Notes. Outstanding Notes that we accept for exchange will cease to accrue interest from and after the date of consummation of the exchange offers, and holders whose Outstanding Notes are exchanged for the corresponding series of New Notes will not receive a payment in respect of interest accrued

but unpaid on such Outstanding Notes from the most recent interest payment date up to but excluding the settlement date. Under the Registration Rights Agreements, we may be required to make additional payments in the form of additional interest to the holders of the Outstanding Notes or New Notes, as applicable, under circumstances relating to the timing of the exchange offers, as discussed below.

In all cases, we will issue New Notes in the exchange offers for Outstanding Notes of the corresponding series that are accepted for exchange only after the exchange agent timely receives:



	•		certificates for such Outstanding Notes or a timely book-entry confirmation of such Outstanding Notes into the exchange agent’s applicable account at DTC;



	•		a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal or an agent’s message; and



	•		all other required documents.

If for any reason set forth in the terms and conditions of the exchange offers we do not accept tendered Outstanding Notes, or if a holder submits Outstanding Notes for a greater principal amount than the holder desires to exchange, we will return such unaccepted or non-exchanged Outstanding Notes without cost to the tendering holder. In the case of Outstanding Notes tendered by book-entry transfer into the exchange agent’s applicable account at DTC, such non-exchanged Outstanding Notes will be credited to an account maintained with DTC. We will return the Outstanding Notes or have them credited to DTC as promptly as practicable after the Expiration Date.

Withdrawal of Tenders

You may withdraw any Outstanding Notes that you tender for exchange at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date. For a withdrawal to be effective, you must send a written notice of withdrawal to the exchange agent at the address set forth below under “—The Exchange Agent.” Any such notice of withdrawal must:



	•		specify the name of the person having tendered the Outstanding Notes to be withdrawn;



	•		identify the Outstanding Notes to be withdrawn, including the principal amount of such Outstanding Notes; and



	•		if certificates for such Outstanding Notes have been transmitted, specify the name in which the Outstanding Notes are registered, if different from that of the withdrawing holder.

If certificates for withdrawn Outstanding Notes have been delivered or otherwise identified to the exchange agent, then, prior to the release of such certificates, the withdrawing holder must also submit the serial numbers of the particular certificates to be withdrawn and a signed notice of withdrawal with signatures guaranteed by an eligible institution unless such holder is an eligible institution. If Outstanding Notes have been tendered pursuant to the procedure for book-entry transfer described above, any notice of withdrawal must specify the name and number of the account at DTC to be credited with the withdrawn Outstanding Notes and otherwise comply with the ATOP procedures of DTC. We will determine all questions as to the validity, form and eligibility, including time of receipt, of such notices and our determination will be final and binding on all parties. Any tendered Outstanding Notes so withdrawn will be deemed not to have been validly tendered for exchange for purposes of the exchange offers. Any Outstanding Notes that have been tendered for exchange but which are not exchanged for any reason will be returned to the holder of those Outstanding Notes without cost to the holder. In the case of Outstanding Notes tendered by book-entry transfer into the exchange agent’s applicable account at DTC, the withdrawn Outstanding Notes will be credited to an account maintained with DTC for such Outstanding Notes. The Outstanding Notes will be returned or credited to this account promptly after withdrawal, rejection of tender or termination of the exchange offers. Properly withdrawn Outstanding Notes may be re-tendered by following one of the procedures described under “—Procedures for Tendering” above at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date.

Conditions to the Exchange Offers

Notwithstanding any other provision of the exchange offers, we will not be required to accept for exchange, or to issue the New Notes in exchange for, any Outstanding Notes and may terminate or amend the exchange offers if at any time before the expiration of the exchange offers, we determine (i) that the exchange offers violate applicable law, any applicable interpretation of the staff of the SEC or any order of any governmental agency or court of competent jurisdiction; (ii) an action or proceeding shall have been instituted or threatened in any court or by any governmental agency which might materially impair our ability to proceed with the exchange offers or a material adverse development shall have occurred in any existing action or proceeding with

respect to us; or (iii) all governmental approvals that we deem necessary for the consummation of the exchange offers have not been obtained.

Other than the federal securities laws, there are no federal or state regulatory requirements that we must comply with and there are no approvals that we must obtain in connection with the exchange offers.

The foregoing conditions are for our sole benefit and may be asserted by us regardless of the circumstances giving rise to any such condition or may be waived by us in whole or in part at any time and from time to time. The failure by us at any time to exercise any of the foregoing rights shall not be deemed a waiver of any of those rights and each of those rights shall be deemed an ongoing right which may be asserted at any time and from time to time. Any determination made by us concerning an event, development or circumstance described or referred to above will be conclusive and binding.

If any of the foregoing conditions are not satisfied, we may, at any time on or prior to the Expiration Date:



	•		terminate the exchange offers and return all tendered Outstanding Notes to the respective tendering holders;



	•		modify, extend or otherwise amend the exchange offers and retain all tendered Outstanding Notes until the Expiration Date, as extended, subject, however, to the withdrawal rights of holders; or



	•		to the extent lawful, waive the unsatisfied conditions with respect to the exchange offers and accept all Outstanding Notes tendered and not previously validly withdrawn.

In addition, we will not accept for exchange any Outstanding Notes tendered, and no New Notes will be issued in exchange for those Outstanding Notes, if at such time any stop order shall be threatened or in effect with respect to the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part or with respect to the qualification of the indenture governing the New Notes under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”).

The Exchange Agent

Wells Fargo Bank, National Association has been appointed as the exchange agent for the exchange offers. All correspondence in connection with the exchange offers should be sent or delivered by each holder of the Outstanding Notes, or a beneficial owner’s commercial bank, broker, dealer, trust company or other nominee, to the exchange agent at:



Delivery by Registered or Certified Mail: WELLS FARGO BANK, N.A. Corporate Trust Operations MAC N9303-121 P.O. Box 1517 Minneapolis, MN 55480-1517	In Person or by Hand Only: WELLS FARGO BANK, N.A. 12th Floor — Northstar East Building Corporate Trust Operations 608 Second Avenue South Minneapolis, MN 55479 Facsimile Transmissions: (Eligible Institutions Only)	Regular Mail or Courier: WELLS FARGO BANK, N.A.

	(612) 667-6282 Attention: Bondholder Communications To Confirm by Telephone or for Information Call: (800) 344-5128, Option 0 Attention: Bondholder Communications

Questions concerning tender procedures should be directed to the exchange agent at the address, telephone number or fax number listed above. Holders of the Outstanding Notes may also contact their commercial bank, broker, dealer, trust company or other nominee for assistance concerning the exchange offers. We will pay the exchange agent reasonable and customary fees for its services and will reimburse it for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses.

DELIVERY OF THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL TO AN ADDRESS OTHER THAN AS SHOWN ABOVE OR TRANSMISSION OF THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL VIA FACSIMILE OTHER THAN AS SET FORTH ABOVE DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A VALID DELIVERY OF THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL. DELIVERY OF DOCUMENTS TO DTC DOES NOT CONSTITUTE DELIVERY TO THE EXCHANGE AGENT.

Announcements

We may make any announcement required pursuant to the terms of this prospectus or required by the Exchange Act or the rules promulgated thereunder through a reasonable press release or other public announcement in our sole discretion; provided, that, if any such announcement is made by issuing a press release to Business Wire, PR Newswire or Dow Jones News Service, such announcement shall be reasonable and sufficient.

Fees and Expenses

We will bear the expenses of soliciting tenders of the Outstanding Notes. The principal solicitation is being made by mail. Additional solicitations may, however, be made by e-mail, facsimile transmission, telephone or in person by our officers and other employees and those of our affiliates.

We have not retained any dealer-manager in connection with the exchange offers and will not make any payments to broker-dealers or others soliciting acceptances of the exchange offers. However, we will pay the exchange agent reasonable and customary fees for its services and will reimburse it for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses.

Tendering holders of the Outstanding Notes will not be required to pay any fee or commission to the exchange agent. If, however, a tendering holder handles the transaction through its commercial bank, broker, dealer, trust company or other institution, that holder may be required to pay brokerage fees or commissions.

Accounting Treatment

The New Notes will be recorded at the same carrying value as the Outstanding Notes as reflected in our accounting records on the settlement date for the exchange offers. Accordingly, we will not recognize any gain or loss for accounting purposes upon the consummation of the exchange offers.

Transfer Taxes

Holders who tender Outstanding Notes for exchange will not be obligated to pay any transfer taxes in connection with the exchange. If, however, New Notes issued in the applicable exchange offer are to be delivered to, or are to be issued in the name of, any person other than the holder of the applicable Outstanding Notes tendered, or if a transfer tax is imposed for any reason other than the exchange of such Outstanding Notes in connection with the applicable exchange offer, then the holder must pay any of these transfer taxes, whether imposed on the registered holder or on any other person. If satisfactory evidence of payment of, or exemption from, these taxes is not submitted with the letter of transmittal, the amount of these transfer taxes will be billed directly to the tendering holder.

Consequences of Failure to Exchange Your Outstanding Notes

Holders of the Outstanding Notes who do not exchange their Outstanding Notes for the New Notes under the exchange offers will remain subject to the restrictions on transfer applicable in the Outstanding Notes as set forth in the legend printed on the Outstanding Notes as a consequence of the issuance of the Outstanding Notes pursuant to exemptions from, or in transactions not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Any Outstanding Notes not tendered by their holders in exchange for the New Notes in the exchange offers will not retain any rights under the Registration Rights Agreement (except in certain limited circumstances) or any rights to additional interest. See “—Additional Interest.”

In general, you may not offer or sell the Outstanding Notes unless they are registered under the Securities Act, or if the offer or sale is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. We do not intend to register resales of the Outstanding Notes under the Securities Act. Based on interpretations of the SEC staff, the New Notes issued pursuant to the exchange offers may be offered for resale, resold or otherwise transferred by their holders (other than any such holder that is our “affiliate” within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act) without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act, provided that the holders acquired the New Notes in the ordinary course of business and the holders are not engaged in, have no arrangement with any person to participate in, and do not intend to engage in, any public distribution of the New Notes to be acquired in the exchange offers. Any holder who tenders in the exchange offers and

is engaged in, has an arrangement with any person to participate in, or intends to engage in, any public distribution of the New Notes (i) may not rely on the applicable interpretations of the SEC and (ii) must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with a secondary resale transaction.

Consequences of Exchanging Your Outstanding Notes

We are making these exchange offers in reliance on the position of the staff of the SEC as set forth in interpretive letters addressed to other parties in other transactions. For further information on the SEC’s position, see Exxon Capital Holdings Corporation, available May 13, 1988, Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, available June 5, 1991, and Shearman & Sterling, available July 2, 1993, and other interpretive letters to similar effect. We have not sought our own interpretive letter, however, and we cannot assure you that the staff would make a similar determination with respect to the exchange offers as it has in interpretive letters to other parties. Based on these interpretations by the staff, we believe that the New Notes issued under the exchange offers may be offered for resale, resold or otherwise transferred by you, without further compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act, so long as you:



	(1)	are acquiring the New Notes in the ordinary course of your business;



	(2)	are not participating in, and do not intend to participate in, a distribution of the New Notes within the meaning of the Securities Act and have no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in a distribution of the New Notes within the meaning of the Securities Act;



	(3)	are not a broker-dealer who acquired the Outstanding Notes directly from us; and



	(4)	are not an “affiliate,” within the meaning of Rule 405 of the Securities Act, of ours or any subsidiary guarantor.

By tendering the Outstanding Notes in exchange for the New Notes, you will be required to represent to us that each of the above statements applies to you. If you are an affiliate of the Company or any subsidiary guarantor, or are engaged in or intend to engage in or have any arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in a distribution of the New Notes, or are a broker-dealer who purchased Outstanding Notes from us to resell pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act or any other available exemption under the Securities Act, you may not rely on the applicable interpretations of the staff of the SEC and you must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any secondary resale transaction.

Each broker-dealer that receives the New Notes for its own account in exchange for the Outstanding Notes, where the Outstanding Notes were acquired by the broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of the New Notes. The letter of transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. A broker-dealer may use this prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, in connection with resales of the New Notes received in exchange for the Outstanding Notes which the broker-dealer acquired as a result of market-making or other trading activities. See “Plan of Distribution.”

The exchange offers are not being made to, nor will we accept tenders for exchange from, holders of the Outstanding Notes in any jurisdiction in which the exchange offers or the acceptance of them would not be in compliance with the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdiction.

Shelf Registration Statement

Under the Registration Rights Agreements, in the event that:



	(1)	because of any change in law or in applicable interpretations thereof by the staff of the SEC, the New Notes received by holders in the exchange offers are not or would not be, upon receipt, transferable by each such holder without restriction under the Securities Act;



	(2)	the exchange offers are not consummated by the 300th day after August 7, 2015 or September 16, 2015, the original issue dates of the Outstanding 2024 Notes and the Outstanding 2025 Notes, respectively;



	(3)	any holder so requests within 10 business days following the consummation of the exchange offers with respect to



		Outstanding Notes not eligible to be exchanged for New Notes in the exchange offers and held by it following consummation of the exchange offers; and



	(4)	any holder notifies the Company within 10 business days following consummation of the exchange offers that such holder is not eligible to participate in the exchange offers or such holder may not resell the New Notes acquired by it in the exchange offers to the public without delivering a prospectus and the prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not appropriate or available for such resales by such holder, or such holder is a broker-dealer and holds Outstanding Notes that are part of an unsold allotment from the original sale of the Outstanding Notes,

then, we shall, at our cost, promptly, but in no event more than 300 days after such determination, date, request or notification, as the case may be (the “Shelf Registration Statement Filing Deadline”), use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a shelf registration statement on an appropriate form under Rule 415 of the Securities Act (the “Shelf Registration Statement”), providing for the sale of all the Notes affected by the events described in clauses (1) through (4) by the holders thereof. We shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective, unless it becomes effective automatically upon filing, (i) in the case of clause (1) above, on or prior to the 300th day following the issue date of the Outstanding Notes, as applicable, and (ii) in the case of clauses (2) through (4) above, on or prior to the 90th day after the Shelf Registration Statement Filing Deadline.

We will use our commercially reasonable efforts to keep such Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective, supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that it is available for resales of the Notes by the holders, for a period of one year from the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement or such shorter period that will terminate (i) when all the Notes covered by the Shelf Registration Statement have been sold pursuant thereto or (ii) on the earliest date (A) that is no less than one year after the issue date of the Outstanding Notes, as applicable, and (B) on which all the Notes covered by the Shelf Registration Statement (except for Notes held by an affiliate of the Company) are no longer subject to any restrictions on transfer under the Securities Act, including those pursuant to Rule 144 (the “Shelf Registration Period”).

Additional Interest

The Registration Rights Agreements further provide that in the event that (i) we have not consummated the exchange offers within 300 days after the issue date of the Outstanding Notes, as applicable; (ii) the Shelf Registration Statement, if required by clause (1) above, has not been declared effective by the SEC on or prior to the 300th day following the issue date of the Outstanding Notes, as applicable; (iii) the Shelf Registration Statement, if required by clauses (2) through (4) above, has not been declared effective on or prior to the 90th day after the Shelf Registration Statement Filing Deadline; or (iv) the Shelf Registration Statement, if required, has become effective and thereafter ceases to be effective or the prospectus therein ceases to be usable at any time during the Shelf Registration Period (each such event, a “Registration Default” and each period during which a Registration Default has occurred and is continuing, a “Registration Default Period”) then the interest rate borne by the Notes that are the subject of a Registration Default will be increased by 0.25% per annum for the first 90-day period beginning on the day immediately following such Registration Default, increasing thereafter to a maximum rate of 0.50% per annum for the remaining portion of the Registration Default Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we shall in no event be required to pay such additional interest for more than one Registration Default at any given time.

The foregoing summary of certain provisions of the Registration Rights Agreements does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, all of the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreements, copies of which are filed as exhibits to our Registration Statement on Form S-4, of which this prospectus forms a part.

Participation in the exchange offers is voluntary, and you should carefully consider whether to participate. You are urged to consult your financial and tax advisors in making your own decision as to what action to take.

DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW NOTES

We issued the Outstanding Notes and will issue the New Notes under an indenture, dated December 1, 2009, between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, successor to The Bank of Nova Scotia Trust Company, as Trustee (as so modified and supplemented with respect to each series of Notes issued thereunder, the “Indenture”).

The Notes may be referred to herein as a “series.” The terms of the Notes will include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act. Certain terms used in this description are defined under the subheading “— Certain Definitions” and certain terms used in this description but not defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. In this description, the words “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer only to HealthSouth Corporation and not to any of its subsidiaries, and the term “Notes” refers to the New Notes and the Outstanding Notes (to the extent not exchanged for New Notes).

The following description is only a summary of the material provisions of the Indenture and the Notes. It does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to all of the provisions of the Indenture. We urge you to read the Indenture because it, and not this description, defines your rights as holders of the Notes. You may request a copy of the Indenture at our address set forth under the heading “Where You Can Find More Information.”

Brief Description of the Notes

The Notes:


•	will be unsecured senior obligations of the Company;


•	will be senior in right of payment to any existing and future Subordinated Obligations of the Company; and


•	will be guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each Subsidiary Guarantor.

Principal, Maturity and Interest

Subject to our compliance with the covenant described under the subheading “—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Indebtedness,” we will be permitted to issue more notes of a series from time to time under the Indenture (the “Additional Notes”), provided, however, that no Additional Notes may be issued at a price that would cause such Additional Notes to have “original issue discount” within the meaning of Section 1273 of the Code. The 2024 Notes will initially be issued in an aggregate principal amount of $350.0 million and will mature on November 1, 2024. The 2025 Notes will initially be issued in an aggregate principal amount of $350.0 million and will mature on September 15, 2025. The Notes and the Additional Notes of such series, if any, will be treated as a single class for all purposes of the Indenture, including waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase. Unless the context otherwise requires, for all purposes of the Indenture and this “Description of the Notes,” references to the Notes include any Additional Notes of such series actually issued.

Interest on the 2024 Notes will accrue at the rate of 5.75% per annum and will be payable semiannually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year, commencing May 1, 2016, to holders of record of the 2024 Notes on the immediately preceding April 15 and October 15. Interest on the 2025 Notes will accrue at the rate of 5.75% per annum and will be payable semiannually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing March 15, 2016, to holders of record of the 2025 Notes on the immediately preceding March 1 and September 1. We will pay interest on overdue principal at 1% per annum in excess of the rate set forth above and will pay interest on overdue installments of interest at such higher rate to the extent lawful. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the applicable issue date. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. If any interest payment date, any redemption date or the maturity date for the Notes falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the required payment will be made on the next succeeding Business Day and no interest on such payment will accrue in respect of the delay. Additional Interest (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreements) may accrue on the Notes in certain circumstances pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreements, and all references in this description of the Notes to accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes shall include Additional Interest payable on the Notes, if any.

The Company will issue the Notes in denominations of $2,000 and any greater integral multiple of $1,000.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means each of Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Barclays Capital Inc. and their respective successors and assigns.

Selection and Notice of Redemption

If we are redeeming less than all of the Notes at any time, and the Notes are Global Notes, the Notes to be redeemed will be selected by DTC in accordance with applicable DTC procedures. If the Notes to be redeemed are not Global Notes, the Trustee will select Notes on a pro rata basis to the extent practicable.

We will redeem Notes of $2,000 or less in whole and not in part. We will cause notices of redemption to be mailed by first-class mail (or with respect to Global Notes, to the extent permitted or required by applicable DTC procedures or regulations, sent electronically) at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at its registered address.

If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to that Note will state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. We will issue a new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note in the name of the Holder upon cancellation of the original Note. Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption. On and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of them called for redemption.

Mandatory Redemption; Offers to Purchase; Open Market Purchases

We are not required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. However, under certain circumstances, we may be required to offer to purchase Notes as described under the captions “— Change of Control” and “— Certain Covenants — Limitation on Sales of Assets and Subsidiary Stock.” We may at any time and from time to time purchase Notes in the open market or otherwise.

Guarantees

The Subsidiary Guarantors will jointly and severally guarantee, on a senior unsecured basis, our obligations under the Notes. The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee will be limited as necessary to prevent that Subsidiary Guarantee from constituting a fraudulent conveyance under applicable law. If, however, a Subsidiary Guarantee were rendered voidable, it could be subordinated by a court to all other indebtedness (including guarantees and other contingent liabilities) of the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor, and, depending on the amount of such other indebtedness, a Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability on its Subsidiary Guarantee could be reduced to zero. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Substantial Indebtedness and the New Notes—Federal and state statutes could allow courts, under specific circumstances, to void the Subsidiary Guarantees, subordinate claims in respect of the notes and require note holders to return payments received from subsidiary guarantors.”

The Notes will be guaranteed by all of our subsidiaries that guarantee borrowings under the Credit Agreement. However, certain of our 100% owned subsidiaries and all of our non-wholly owned subsidiaries do not guarantee borrowings under the Credit Agreement. These subsidiaries, including the Home Health Subsidiaries and the CareSouth entities, will also not guarantee the Notes.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor that makes a payment under its Subsidiary Guarantee will be entitled upon payment in full of all guaranteed obligations under the Indenture to a contribution from each other Subsidiary Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Subsidiary Guarantor’s pro rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Subsidiary Guarantors at the time of such payment determined in accordance with GAAP.

Pursuant to the Indenture, (A) a Subsidiary Guarantor may consolidate with, merge with or into, or transfer all or substantially all its assets to any other Person and (B) the Capital Stock of a Subsidiary Guarantor may be sold or otherwise disposed of to another Person to the extent described below under “—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Sales of Assets and Subsidiary Stock.”

The Subsidiary Guarantee of a Subsidiary Guarantor with respect to the Notes will be automatically released:


(1)	upon the designation of such Subsidiary Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary under the Indenture;


(2)	at such time as any Guarantee by such Subsidiary Guarantor of the obligations under the Credit Agreement and under all Capital Markets Indebtedness has been released and discharged, except a discharge or release by or as a result of payment under such Guarantee; or


(3)	if we exercise our legal defeasance option or our covenant defeasance option as described under “—Defeasance” or if our obligations under the Indenture are discharged in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

Ranking

Senior Indebtedness Versus Notes

The indebtedness evidenced by the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees will be unsecured and will rank pari passu in right of payment to the Senior Indebtedness of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, as the case may be.

As of September 30, 2015, as adjusted to reflect the consummation of the Acquisitions (including the incurrence of additional debt under our Credit Agreement to pay a portion of the Reliant Acquisition Consideration and to pay the CareSouth Acquisition Consideration) and the redemption of $50 million of the outstanding principal amount of our existing 7.75% Senior Notes due 2022 which occurred on November 30, 2015, the Senior Indebtedness of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors would have been approximately $2.9 billion, including approximately $857.1 million of senior secured indebtedness (including $292.1 million of capital lease obligations). Other than capital lease obligations, substantially all of the Senior Indebtedness of the Subsidiary Guarantors consists of their respective guarantees of Senior Indebtedness of the Company under the Credit Agreement and with respect to our outstanding senior notes, including the Notes.

The Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees thereof will be senior unsecured obligations of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, respectively. The Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees thereof will rank equal in right of payment to the current and future senior Indebtedness of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, respectively, and senior in right of payment to any current and future subordinated Indebtedness of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, respectively. The Notes and Subsidiary Guarantees thereof will be effectively subordinated to current and future secured debt and other secured obligations of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, respectively, including borrowings under the Credit Agreement, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt or other obligations. As of September 30, 2015, as adjusted to reflect the consummation of the Acquisitions (including the incurrence of additional debt under our Credit Agreement to pay a portion of the Reliant Acquisition Consideration and to pay the CareSouth Acquisition Consideration), we would have had available borrowing capacity of approximately $445.8 million under the revolving portion of our Credit Agreement. See “Summary—Amendments to Our Credit Agreement.”

Liabilities of Subsidiaries Versus Notes

A substantial amount of our operations are conducted through our subsidiaries. Certain of our wholly owned subsidiaries and all of our non-wholly owned subsidiaries will not guarantee the Notes. In addition, as described above under “—Guarantees,” Subsidiary Guarantees may be released under certain circumstances and future subsidiaries of the Company may not be required to guarantee the Notes. Claims of creditors of such nonguarantor subsidiaries, including trade creditors and creditors holding indebtedness or guarantees issued by such nonguarantor subsidiaries, and claims of preferred stockholders of such nonguarantor subsidiaries generally will have priority with respect to the assets and earnings of such nonguarantor subsidiaries over the claims of our creditors, including holders of the Notes. Accordingly, the Notes will be structurally subordinated to creditors (including trade creditors) and preferred stockholders, if any, of our nonguarantor subsidiaries.

At September 30, 2015, the total liabilities of our subsidiaries (other than the Subsidiary Guarantors) were approximately $331 million, including trade payables (excluding intercompany liabilities). Although the Indenture limits the Incurrence of Indebtedness and preferred stock by certain of our subsidiaries, such limitation is subject to a number of significant qualifications. Moreover, the Indenture does not impose any limitation on the Incurrence by such subsidiaries of liabilities that are not considered Indebtedness under the Indenture. See “—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Indebtedness.” The nonguarantor subsidiaries generated approximately 42% of our consolidated net operating revenues and approximately 34% of our Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Change of Control

Upon the occurrence of any of the following events (each a “Change of Control”), each Holder shall have the right to require that the Company repurchase all or any part of such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount

thereof on the date of purchase plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date):

(1)

the Company becomes aware that any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) is or has become the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act, except that for purposes of this clause (1) such person shall be deemed to have “beneficial ownership” of all shares that any such person has the right to acquire, whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the total voting power of the Voting Stock of the Company;

(2)

at any time during any period of up to 24 consecutive months, commencing on the Issue Date, individuals who at the beginning of such period constituted the Board of Directors (together with any new directors whose election by such Board of Directors or whose nomination for election by the shareholders of the Company was approved by a vote of a majority of the directors of the Company then still in office who were either directors at the beginning of such period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved) cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the Board of Directors then in office;


(3)	the Company is liquidated or dissolved or adopts a plan of liquidation or dissolution; or

(4)

the merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person or the merger of another Person with or into the Company, or the sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Company (determined on a consolidated basis) to another Person, other than a transaction following which (i) in the case of a merger or consolidation transaction, holders of securities that represented 100% of the Voting Stock of the Company immediately prior to such transaction (or other securities into which such securities are converted as part of such merger or consolidation transaction) own directly or indirectly at least a majority of the voting power of the Voting Stock of the surviving Person in such merger or consolidation transaction immediately after such transaction and (ii) in the case of a sale of assets transaction, each transferee becomes an obligor in respect of the Notes and a Subsidiary of the transferor of such assets.

Within 30 days following any Change of Control, we will mail (or with respect to Global Notes, to the extent permitted or required by applicable DTC procedures or regulations, send electronically) a notice to each Holder with a copy to the Trustee (the “Change of Control Offer”) stating:

(1)

that a Change of Control has occurred and that such Holder has the right to require us to purchase such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof on the date of purchase, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date);


(2)	the circumstances and relevant facts and financial information regarding such Change of Control;


(3)	the purchase date (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent); and


(4)	the instructions, as determined by us, consistent with the covenant described hereunder, that a Holder must follow in order to have its Notes purchased.

We will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by us and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer.

We will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes as a result of a Change of Control. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of the covenant described hereunder, we will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached our obligations under the covenant described hereunder by virtue of our compliance with such securities laws or regulations.

The Change of Control purchase feature of the Notes may in certain circumstances make more difficult or discourage a sale or takeover of the Company and, thus, the removal of incumbent management. The Change of Control purchase feature is a result of negotiations between the Company and the initial purchasers. We have no present intention to engage in a transaction involving a Change of Control, although it is possible that we could decide to do so in the future. Subject to the limitations discussed below, we could, in the future, enter into certain transactions, including acquisitions, refinancings or other recapitalizations, that would not

constitute a Change of Control under the Indenture, but that could increase the amount of indebtedness outstanding at such time or otherwise affect our capital structure or credit ratings. Restrictions on our ability to incur additional Indebtedness are contained in the covenants described under “—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Indebtedness,” “—Limitation on Liens” and “—Limitation on Sale/Leaseback Transactions.” Such restrictions can only be waived under the Indenture with respect to the Notes with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. Except for the limitations contained in such covenants, however, the Indenture will not contain any covenants or provisions that may afford holders of the Notes protection in the event of a highly leveraged transaction.

Subject to certain exceptions, the Credit Agreement prohibits us from purchasing any Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer, and also provides that the occurrence of certain change of control events with respect to the Company would constitute a default thereunder. In the event a Change of Control occurs at a time when we are prohibited from purchasing Notes, we may seek the consent of our lenders to the purchase of Notes or may attempt to refinance the borrowings that contain such prohibition. If we do not obtain such a consent or repay such borrowings, we will remain prohibited from purchasing Notes. In such case, our failure to offer to purchase Notes would constitute a Default under the Indenture, which would, in turn, constitute a default under the Credit Agreement.

Future indebtedness that we may incur may contain prohibitions on the occurrence of certain events that would constitute a Change of Control or require the repurchase of such indebtedness upon a Change of Control. Moreover, the exercise by Holders of their right to require us to repurchase their Notes could cause a default under such indebtedness, even if the Change of Control itself does not, due to the financial effect of such repurchase on us. Finally, our ability to pay cash to Holders following the occurrence of a Change of Control may be limited by our then existing financial resources. There can be no assurance that sufficient funds will be available when necessary to make any required repurchases.

The definition of “Change of Control” includes a disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to any Person. 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, in certain circumstances there may be a degree of uncertainty as to whether a particular transaction would involve a disposition of “all or substantially all” of the assets of the Company. As a result, it may be unclear as to whether a Change of Control has occurred and whether a Holder may require the Company to make an offer to repurchase the Notes as described above.

Under clause (2) of the definition of Change of Control, a Change of Control will occur when a majority of our board of directors are not Continuing Directors. In a recent decision in connection with a proxy contest, the Delaware Court of Chancery held that the occurrence of a change of control under a similar indenture provision may be avoided if the existing directors were to approve the slate of new director nominees (who would constitute a majority of the new board) as “continuing directors,” provided the incumbent directors give their approval in the good faith exercise of their fiduciary duties owed to the corporation and its stockholders. Therefore, in certain circumstances involving a significant change in the composition of our board of directors, including in connection with a proxy contest where our board of directors does not endorse a dissident slate of directors but approves them as Continuing Directors, Holders may not be entitled to require us to make a Change of Control Offer.

The provisions under the Indenture relative to our obligation to make an offer to repurchase the Notes issued thereunder as a result of a Change of Control may be waived or modified with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of such Notes.

Limitation on Sales of Assets and Subsidiary Stock

(a) The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, consummate any Asset Disposition unless:


(1)	the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary receives consideration at the time of such Asset Disposition at least equal to the Fair Market Value (including as to the value of all non-cash consideration) of the shares and assets subject to such Asset Disposition;


(2)	at least 75% of the consideration thereof received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash or cash equivalents; and


(3)	an amount equal to 100% of the Net Available Cash from such Asset Disposition, other than any Asset Disposition that constitutes a Syndication or a resyndication transaction in the ordinary course of business, is applied by the Company (or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be):

(A)

to the extent the Company elects (or is required by the terms of any Indebtedness), to prepay, repay, redeem or purchase Senior Indebtedness of the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor or Indebtedness (other than any Disqualified Stock) of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor (in each case other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or an Affiliate of the Company) within one year from the later of the date of such Asset Disposition or the receipt of such Net Available Cash;


(B)	to the extent the Company elects (including with respect to the balance of such Net Available Cash after application (if any) in accordance with clause (A)), to acquire Additional Assets within one year from the later of the date of such Asset Disposition or the receipt of such Net Available Cash; and


(C)	to the extent of the balance of such Net Available Cash after application (if any) in accordance with clauses (A) and (B), to make an offer to the Holders (and to holders of other Senior Indebtedness of the Company designated by the Company) to purchase Notes (and such other Senior Indebtedness of the Company) pursuant to and subject to the conditions contained in the Indenture;

provided, however, that in connection with any prepayment, repayment or purchase of Indebtedness made to satisfy clause (A) or (C) above, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary shall permanently retire such Indebtedness and shall cause the related loan commitment (if any) to be permanently reduced in an amount equal to the principal amount so prepaid, repaid or purchased.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this covenant, the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries will not be required to apply any Net Available Cash in accordance with this covenant except to the extent that the aggregate Net Available Cash from all Asset Dispositions which is not applied in accordance with this covenant exceeds $50 million. Pending application of Net Available Cash pursuant to this covenant, such Net Available Cash shall be invested in Temporary Cash Investments or applied to temporarily reduce revolving credit indebtedness.

For the purposes of this covenant, the following are deemed to be cash or cash equivalents:

(1)

the assumption or discharge of any liabilities (as shown on the Company’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet or in the footnotes thereto) of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary (other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes) that are assumed by the transferee of such assets and for which the Company and all of the Restricted Subsidiaries have been released by all creditors in writing;


(2)	securities received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from the transferee that are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary within 180 days into cash, to the extent of cash received in that conversion;


(3)	all Temporary Cash Investments; and

(4)

any Designated Noncash Consideration having an aggregate Fair Market Value that, when taken together with all other Designated Noncash Consideration previously received and then outstanding, does not exceed at the time of the receipt of such Designated Noncash Consideration (with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Noncash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value) $30 million.

(b) In the event of an Asset Disposition that requires the purchase of Notes (and other Senior Indebtedness of the Company) pursuant to clause (a)(3)(C) above, the Company will purchase Notes tendered pursuant to an offer by the Company for the Notes (and such other Senior Indebtedness) at a purchase price of 100% of their principal amount (or, in the event such other Senior Indebtedness of the Company was issued with a significant original issue discount, 100% of the accreted value thereof) without premium, plus accrued but unpaid interest (or, in respect of such other Senior Indebtedness of the Company, such lesser price, if any, as may be provided for by the terms of such Senior Indebtedness) in accordance with the procedures (including prorating in the event of oversubscription) set forth in the Indenture. If the aggregate purchase price of the securities tendered exceeds the Net Available Cash allotted to their purchase, the Company will select the securities to be purchased on a pro rata basis but in round denominations, which in the case of the Notes will be denominations of $2,000 principal amount or any greater integral multiple of $1,000. The Company shall not be required to make such an offer to purchase Notes (and other Senior Indebtedness of the Company) pursuant to this covenant if the Net Available Cash available therefor is less than $20 million (which lesser amount shall be carried forward for purposes of determining whether such an offer is required with respect to the Net Available Cash from any subsequent Asset Disposition). Upon completion of such an offer to purchase, Net Available Cash will be deemed to be reduced by the aggregate amount of such offer.

(c) The Company will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to this covenant. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this covenant, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this covenant by virtue of its compliance with such securities laws or regulations.

Limitation on Affiliate Transactions

(a) The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into or permit to exist any transaction (including the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property, employee compensation arrangements or the rendering of any service) with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Company (an “Affiliate Transaction”) unless:


(1)	the terms of the Affiliate Transaction are no less favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary than those that could be obtained at the time of the Affiliate Transaction in arm’s-length dealings with a Person who is not an Affiliate;

(2)

if such Affiliate Transaction involves an amount in excess of $10 million with respect to the 2024 Notes and $50 million with respect to the 2025 Notes, the terms of the Affiliate Transaction are set forth in writing and a majority of the non-employee directors of the Company disinterested with respect to such Affiliate Transaction have determined in good faith that the criteria set forth in clause (1) are satisfied and have approved the relevant Affiliate Transaction as evidenced by a resolution of the Board of Directors; and

(3)

with respect to the 2024 Notes, if such Affiliate Transaction involves an amount in excess of $50 million, the Board of Directors shall also have received written opinion from an Independent Qualified Party to the effect that such Affiliate Transaction is fair, from a financial standpoint, to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries or is not less favorable to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries than could reasonably be expected to be obtained at the time in an arm’s-length transaction with a Person who was not an Affiliate.

(b) The provisions of the preceding paragraph (a) will not prohibit:


(1)	any Investment (other than a Permitted Investment) or other Restricted Payment, in each case permitted to be made pursuant to the covenant described under “—Limitation on Restricted Payments;”


(2)	any employment or consulting agreement, employee benefit plan, officer or director indemnification agreement or any similar arrangement entered into by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business or approved by the Board of Directors, and payments pursuant thereto;


(3)	loans or advances to employees in the ordinary course of business of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries, but in any event not to exceed $10 million in the aggregate outstanding at any one time;


(4)	the payment of reasonable fees or other reasonable compensation to, or the provision of customary benefits or indemnification arrangements to, directors of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries;


(5)	any transaction with the Company, a Restricted Subsidiary or any Person that would constitute an Affiliate Transaction solely because the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary owns an equity interest in or otherwise controls such Restricted Subsidiary or Person;


(6)	the issuance or sale of any Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company;

(7)

with respect to the 2024 Notes, any agreement as in effect on the Issue Date and described in the Prospectus Supplement dated September 6, 2012 and used in connection with the offering of the Outstanding 2024 Notes (or described in a document incorporated by reference in such Prospectus Supplement) or any renewals or extensions of any such agreement (so long as such renewals or extensions are not less favorable in any material respect to the Company or the Restricted Subsidiaries) and the transactions evidenced thereby; and with respect to the 2025 Notes, any agreement as in effect on the Issue Date or any renewals or extensions of any such agreement (so long as such renewals or extensions are not less favorable in any material respect to the Company or the Restricted Subsidiaries) and the transactions evidenced thereby;


(8)	the provision of services to directors or officers of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of the nature provided by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to customers in the ordinary course of business;


(9)	transactions effected as a part of a Qualified Receivables Transaction;


(10)	with respect to the 2025 Notes, any transaction entered into by a Person prior to the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or is merged or consolidated into the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary (provided such transaction is not entered into in contemplation of such event); and

(11)

with respect to the 2025 Notes, any transaction with the Company’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s customers, clients, suppliers, landlords, lessors, or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in each case, in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of the Indenture that are fair to the Company, or are on terms at least as favorable as would reasonably have been entered into at such time with a Person who is not an Affiliate of the Company (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors or senior management of the Company).

Limitation on Liens

The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, Incur or permit to exist any Lien (the “Initial Lien”) of any nature whatsoever on any of its properties (including Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary), whether owned at the Issue Date or thereafter acquired, securing any Indebtedness, other than Permitted Liens, without effectively providing that the Notes shall be secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) the obligations so secured for so long as such obligations are so secured.

Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders pursuant to the preceding sentence shall provide by its terms that such Lien shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the Initial Lien.

Limitation on Sale/Leaseback Transactions

The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into any Sale/Leaseback Transaction with respect to any property unless:

(1)

the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary would be entitled to (A) Incur Indebtedness in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt with respect to such Sale/Leaseback Transaction pursuant to the covenant described under “—Limitation on Indebtedness” and (B) create a Lien on such property securing such Attributable Debt without equally and ratably securing the Notes pursuant to the covenant described under “—Limitation on Liens;”


(2)	the gross proceeds received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in connection with such Sale/Leaseback Transaction are at least equal to the Fair Market Value of such property; and


(3)	the Company applies the proceeds of such transaction in compliance with the covenant described under “—Limitation on Sales of Assets and Subsidiary Stock.”

Merger and Consolidation

The Company will not consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease, in one transaction or a series of transactions, directly or indirectly, all or substantially all its assets to, any Person, unless:

(1)

the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Company”) shall be a Person organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia and the Successor Company (if not the Company) shall expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental thereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, all the obligations of the Company under the Notes and the Indenture;


(2)	immediately after giving pro forma effect to such transaction (and treating any Indebtedness which becomes an obligation of the Successor Company or any Subsidiary as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by such Successor Company or such Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(3)

immediately after giving pro forma effect to such transaction, (A) the Successor Company would be able to Incur an additional $1.00 of Indebtedness pursuant to paragraph (a) of the covenant described under “—Limitation on Indebtedness” or (B) the Consolidated Coverage Ratio for the Successor Company would be equal to or greater than such ratio for the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries immediately prior to such transaction; and

(4)

the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such supplemental indenture (if any) comply with the Indenture, provided, however, that clause (3) will not be applicable to (A) a Restricted Subsidiary consolidating with, merging into or transferring all or part of its properties and assets to the Company (so long as no Capital Stock of the Company is distributed to any Person) or (B) the Company merging with an Affiliate of the Company solely for the purpose and with the sole effect of reincorporating the Company in another jurisdiction.

For purposes of this covenant, the sale, lease, conveyance, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Company, which properties and assets, if held by the Company instead of such Subsidiaries, would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company on a consolidated basis, shall be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company.

The Successor Company will be the successor to the Company and shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under the Indenture, and the predecessor Company, except in the case of a lease, shall be released from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes.

Future Guarantors

The Company will cause each Restricted Subsidiary that Guarantees any Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the Credit Agreement or Capital Markets Indebtedness (or Incurs any such Indebtedness) to, at the same time, execute and deliver to the Trustee a Guaranty Agreement pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary will Guarantee payment of the Notes on the same terms and conditions as those set forth in the Indenture.

SEC Reports

Whether or not the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company will file with the SEC (subject to the next sentence) and provide the Trustee and Holders with such annual and other reports as are specified in Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act and applicable to a U.S. corporation subject to such Sections, such reports to be so filed and provided at the times specified for the filings of such reports under such Sections and containing all the information, audit reports and exhibits required for such reports. If, at any time, the Company is not subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, the Company will nevertheless continue filing the reports specified in the preceding sentence with the SEC within the time periods required unless the SEC will not accept such a filing. The Company agrees that it will not take any action for the purpose of causing the SEC not to accept any such filings. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the SEC will not accept such filings for any reason, the Company will post the reports specified in the preceding sentence on its website within the time periods that would apply if the Company were required to file those reports with the SEC. At any time that any of the Company’s Subsidiaries are Unrestricted Subsidiaries, then the quarterly and annual financial information required by this paragraph will include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto, of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries of the Company.

Defaults

Each of the following will be an Event of Default with respect to the Notes under the Indenture:


(1)	a default in the payment of interest on the Notes when due, continued for 30 days;


(2)	the Company (A) defaults in the payment of principal of any Note when due at its Stated Maturity, upon optional redemption, upon declaration of acceleration or otherwise or (B) fails to purchase Notes when required pursuant to the Indenture or the Notes;


(3)	the failure by the Company to comply with its obligations under “— Certain Covenants — Merger and Consolidation” above;


(4)	the failure by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor to comply with its agreements contained in the Indenture (other than those referred to in (1), (2) and (3) above) and such failure continues for 60 days after notice;


(5)	Indebtedness of the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any Significant Subsidiary is not paid within any applicable grace period after final maturity or is accelerated by the holders thereof because of a default and the total amount of such Indebtedness unpaid or accelerated exceeds $50 million (the “cross acceleration provision”);


(6)	certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company, a Subsidiary Guarantor or any Significant Subsidiary (the “bankruptcy provisions”);


(7)	any judgment or decree for the payment of money in excess of $50 million is entered against the Company, a Subsidiary Guarantor or any Significant Subsidiary, remains outstanding for a period of 60 consecutive days following such judgment and is not discharged, waived or effectively stayed (the “judgment default provision”); or


(8)	a Subsidiary Guarantee ceases to be in full force and effect (other than in accordance with the terms of such Subsidiary Guarantee) or a Subsidiary Guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee.

However, a default under clause (4) will not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee or the holders of 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes notify the Company of the default and the Company does not cure such default within the time specified after receipt of such notice.

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may declare the principal of and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company occurs and is continuing, the principal of all of the outstanding Notes will ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders. Under certain circumstances, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences.

In the case of any Event of Default occurring by reason of any willful action (or inaction) taken (or not taken) by or on behalf of the Company with the intention of avoiding payment of the premium that the Company would have had to pay if the Company then had elected to redeem the Notes pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of the Indenture, an equivalent premium will also become and be immediately due and payable to the extent permitted by law upon the acceleration of the Notes.

Subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to the duties of the Trustee, in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, 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 satisfactory 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 unless:


(1)	such Holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing;


(2)	holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy;


(3)	such Holders have offered the Trustee satisfactory security or indemnity against any loss, liability or expense;


(4)	the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt thereof and the offer of security or indemnity; and


(5)	holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.

Subject to certain restrictions, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes will have 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 with respect to the Notes. 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.

If a Default occurs, is continuing and is known to the Trustee, the Trustee must mail (or with respect to Global Notes, to the extent permitted or required by applicable DTC procedures or regulations, send electronically) to each Holder notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal of or interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold notice if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding notice is in the interest of the Holders. In addition, we are required to deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, a certificate indicating whether the signers thereof know of any Default that occurred during the previous year. We are required to deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after the occurrence thereof, written notice of any event that would constitute certain Defaults, their status and what action we are taking or propose to take in respect thereof.

Amendments and Waivers

Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture may be amended with the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, the Notes) and any past Default or compliance with any provisions may also be waived with the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. However, without the consent of each Holder affected thereby, an amendment or waiver may not, among other things:


(1)	reduce the amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment;


(2)	reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on any Note;


(3)	reduce the principal of or change the Stated Maturity of any Note;


(4)	(i) reduce the amount payable upon the redemption of any Note or (ii) change the time at which any Note may be redeemed, in each case as described under “— Optional Redemption” above;


(5)	make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Note;


(6)	impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest on such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes;


(7)	make any change in the amendment provisions that require each Holder’s consent or in the waiver provisions;


(8)	make any change in the ranking or priority of any Note that would adversely affect the Holders; or


(9)	make any change in, or release other than in accordance with the Indenture, any Subsidiary Guarantee that would adversely affect the Holders.

Notwithstanding the preceding, without the consent of any Holder, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and Trustee may amend the Indenture:


(1)	to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency;


(2)	to provide for the assumption by a successor Person of the obligations of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor under the Indenture;


(3)	to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes (provided that the uncertificated Notes are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code, or in a manner such that the uncertificated Notes are described in Section 163(f)(2)(B) of the Code);


(4)	to add Guarantees with respect to the Notes, including any Subsidiary Guaranties, or to secure such Notes;


(5)	to add to the covenants of the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor;


(6)	to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder;


(7)	to conform the text of the Indenture or the Notes to any provision of this “Description of the New Notes” to the extent that such provision in this “Description of the New Notes” was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of the Indenture or the Notes;


(8)	to comply with any requirement of the SEC in connection with the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act; or

(9)

to make any amendment to the provisions of the Indenture relating to the transfer and legending of Notes; provided, however, that (a) compliance with the Indenture as so amended would not result in Notes being transferred in violation of the Securities Act or any other applicable securities law and (b) such amendment does not materially and adversely affect the rights of Holders to transfer Notes.

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, the Company will be required to send to Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment. However, the failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, will not impair or affect the validity of the amendment.

Neither the Company nor any Affiliate of the Company may, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way of interest, fee or otherwise, to any Holder for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of the Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to all Holders and is paid to all Holders that so consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.

Transfer

The Notes will be issued in registered form and will be transferable only upon the surrender of the Notes being transferred for registration of transfer and only to the extent in compliance with the restrictions on transfer applicable to the Notes. We may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, assessment or other governmental charge payable in connection with certain transfers and exchanges.

Satisfaction and Discharge

When we (1) deliver to the Trustee all outstanding Notes for cancellation or (2) all outstanding Notes have become due and payable, whether at maturity or on a redemption date as a result of the sending of notice of redemption, and, in the case of clause (2), we irrevocably deposit with the Trustee funds sufficient to pay at maturity or upon redemption all outstanding Notes, including interest thereon to maturity or such redemption date, and if in either case we pay all other sums payable under the Indenture by us, then the Indenture shall, subject to certain exceptions, cease to be of further effect with respect to all outstanding Notes.

Defeasance

At any time, we may terminate all our obligations under the Notes and the Indenture (“legal defeasance”), except for certain obligations, including those respecting the defeasance trust and obligations to register the transfer or exchange of the Notes, to replace mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and to maintain a registrar and paying agent in respect of the Notes.

In addition, at any time we may terminate our obligations under “— Change of Control” and under the covenants described under “— Certain Covenants” (other than the covenant described under “— Merger and Consolidation”), the operation of the cross acceleration provision, the bankruptcy provisions with respect to Subsidiary Guarantors and Significant Subsidiaries and the judgment default provision described under “— Defaults” above and the limitations contained in clause (3) of the first paragraph under “— Certain Covenants — Merger and Consolidation” above (“covenant defeasance”).

We may exercise our legal defeasance option notwithstanding our prior exercise of our covenant defeasance option. If we exercise our legal defeasance option with respect to the Notes, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default with respect thereto. If we exercise our covenant defeasance option with respect to the Notes, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in clause (1), (5), (6) (with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries and Subsidiary Guarantors) or (7) under “— Defaults” above or because of the failure of the Company to comply with clause (3) of the first paragraph under “— Certain Covenants — Merger and Consolidation” above. If we exercise our legal defeasance option or our covenant defeasance option with respect to the Notes, each Subsidiary Guarantor under the Indenture will be released from all of its obligations with respect to its Subsidiary Guarantee in respect of the Notes.

In order to exercise either of our defeasance options with respect to the Notes, we must irrevocably deposit in trust (the “defeasance trust”) with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal and interest on the Notes to redemption or maturity, as the case may be, and must comply with certain other conditions, including delivery to the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred (and, in the case of legal defeasance only, such Opinion of Counsel must be based on a ruling of the Internal Revenue Service or other change in applicable federal income tax law).

Concerning the Trustee

Wells Fargo Bank, National Association is the Trustee under the Indenture and will be appointed by the Company as registrar (“Registrar”) and paying agent with regard to the Notes. An affiliate of Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, is a lender under the Credit Agreement.

The Indenture contains certain limitations on the rights of the Trustee, should it become a creditor of the Company, to obtain payment of claims in certain cases, or to realize on certain property received in respect of any such claim as security or otherwise. The Trustee is permitted to engage in other transactions; provided, however, if it acquires any conflicting interest, as defined in the Trust Indenture Act, it must either eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue or resign.

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee in respect of the Notes, subject to certain exceptions. If an Event of Default occurs (and is not cured or waived), the Trustee will be required, in the exercise of its rights and powers vested in it by the Indenture, to use the degree of care of a prudent person in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. Subject to such provisions, the Trustee is under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the Indenture at the request of any Holder, unless such Holder shall have offered to the Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense and then only to the extent required by the terms of the Indenture.

No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Stockholders

No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor will have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor under the Notes, any Subsidiary Guarantee or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder, by accepting a Note, waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. Such waiver and release may not be effective to waive liabilities under the U.S. federal securities laws, and it is the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against public policy.

Governing Law

The Indenture, the Notes and the related Guarantees are governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

“Consolidated Coverage Ratio” as of any date of determination means the ratio of (a) the aggregate amount of EBITDA for the period of the most recent four consecutive fiscal quarters ending at least 45 days prior to the date of such determination to (b) Consolidated Interest Expense for such four fiscal quarters; provided, however, that:

(1)

if the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary has Incurred any Indebtedness since the beginning of such period that remains outstanding or if the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Coverage Ratio is an Incurrence of Indebtedness, or both, EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period shall be calculated after giving effect on a pro forma basis to such Indebtedness (and the application of the proceeds thereof) as if such Indebtedness had been Incurred on the first day of such period;


(2)	if the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary has repaid, repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged any Indebtedness since the beginning of such period or if any Indebtedness is to be repaid, repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged

(in each case other than Indebtedness Incurred under any revolving credit facility unless such Indebtedness has been permanently repaid and has not been replaced) on the date of the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Coverage Ratio, EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period shall be calculated on a pro forma basis as if such discharge had occurred on the first day of such period and as if the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary had not earned the interest income actually earned during such period in respect of cash or Temporary Cash Investments used to repay, repurchase, defease or otherwise discharge such Indebtedness;

(3)

if since the beginning of such period the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall have made any Asset Disposition, EBITDA for such period shall be reduced by an amount equal to EBITDA (if positive) directly attributable to the assets which are the subject of such Asset Disposition for such period, or increased by an amount equal to EBITDA (if negative), directly attributable thereto for such period and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Consolidated Interest Expense directly attributable to any Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary repaid, repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged with respect to the Company and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with such Asset Disposition for such period (or, if the Capital Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary is sold, the Consolidated Interest Expense for such period directly attributable to the Indebtedness of such Restricted Subsidiary to the extent the Company and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries are no longer liable for such Indebtedness after such sale);

(4)

if since the beginning of such period the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (by merger or otherwise) shall have made an Investment in any Restricted Subsidiary (or any Person that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary) or an acquisition of assets, including any acquisition of assets occurring in connection with a transaction requiring a calculation to be made hereunder, that constitutes a hospital or other health care-related business or all or substantially all of an operating unit of a business, EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto (including the Incurrence of any Indebtedness) as if such Investment or acquisition had occurred on the first day of such period; and

(5)

if since the beginning of such period any Person (that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such period) shall have made any Asset Disposition, any Investment or acquisition of assets that would have required an adjustment pursuant to clause (3) or (4) above if made by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary during such period, EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Asset Disposition, Investment or acquisition had occurred on the first day of such period.

FORM, BOOK-ENTRY PROCEDURES AND TRANSFER

General

The New Notes will be issued in fully registered global form. The New Notes initially will be represented by one or more global certificates without interest coupons (the “global notes”). The global notes will be deposited upon issuance with the Trustee as custodian for DTC and registered in the name of DTC or its nominee for credit to the accounts of direct or indirect participants in DTC, as described below under “—Depositary Procedures.”

The global notes will be deposited on behalf of the acquirers of the New Notes for credit to the respective accounts of the acquirers or to such other accounts as they may direct. Except as described below, the global notes may be transferred, in whole and not in part, only to another nominee of DTC or to a successor of DTC or its nominee. Beneficial interests in the global notes may not be exchanged for the New Notes in certificated form except in the limited circumstances described below under “—Exchange of Book-Entry Notes for Certificated Notes.”

Transfers of beneficial interests in the global notes will be subject to the applicable rules and procedures of DTC and its direct or indirect participants, which may change from time to time.

Depositary Procedures

The following description of the operations and procedures of DTC is provided solely as a matter of convenience. These operations and procedures are solely within the control of the respective settlement systems and are subject to changes by them. We take no responsibility for these operations and procedures and urge investors to contact the systems or their participants directly to discuss these matters.

DTC has advised us that it is:



	•		a limited purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law;



	•		a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law;



	•		a member of the U.S. Federal Reserve System;



	•		a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code; and



	•		a “clearing agency” registered under Section 17A of the Exchange Act.

DTC was created to hold securities for its participating organizations (collectively, the “participants”) and facilitate the clearance and settlement of transactions in those securities between participants through electronic book-entry changes in accounts of its participants. The participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. Access to DTC’s system is also available to other entities such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a participant, either directly or indirectly (collectively, the “indirect participants”). Persons who are not participants may beneficially own securities held by or on behalf of DTC only through participants or indirect participants. DTC has no knowledge of the identity of beneficial owners of securities held by or on behalf of DTC. DTC’s records reflect only the identity of participants to whose accounts securities are credited. The ownership interests and transfer of ownership interests of each beneficial owner of each security held by or on behalf of DTC are recorded on the records of the participants and indirect participants.

DTC has also advised us that, pursuant to procedures established by DTC, ownership of interests in the global notes will be shown on, and the transfer of ownership of such interest will be effected only through, records maintained by DTC (with respect to the participants) or by the participants and the indirect participants (with respect to other owners of beneficial interests in the global notes).

Investors in the global notes may hold their interests therein directly through DTC if they are participants in such system or indirectly through organizations that are participants or indirect participants in such system. All interests in the global notes will be subject to the procedures and requirements of DTC. The laws of some states require that certain persons take physical delivery of certificates evidencing securities they own. Consequently, the ability to transfer beneficial interests in the global notes to such persons will be limited to that extent. Because DTC can act only on behalf of participants, which in turn act on behalf of indirect participants,

the ability of beneficial owners of interests in the global notes to pledge such interests to persons or entities that do not participate in the DTC system, or otherwise take actions in respect of such interests, may be affected by the lack of a physical certificate evidencing such interests.

Except as described below, owners of interests in the global notes will not have New Notes registered in their names, will not receive physical delivery of the New Notes in certificated form and will not be considered the registered owners or holders thereof under the indenture for any purpose.

Payments in respect of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the global notes registered in the name of DTC or its nominee will be payable by the Trustee (or the paying agents if other than the Trustee) to DTC in its capacity as the registered holder under the indenture. We and the Trustee will treat the persons in whose names the New Notes, including the global notes, are registered as the owners thereof for the purpose of receiving such payments and for any and all other purposes whatsoever. Consequently, none of us, the Trustee or any agent of ours or the Trustee has or will have any responsibility or liability for:



	•		any aspect of DTC’s records or any participant’s or indirect participant’s records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in the global notes, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any of DTC’s records or any participant’s or indirect participant’s records relating to the beneficial ownership interests in the global notes; or



	•		any other matter relating to the actions and practices of DTC or any of its participants or indirect participants.

DTC has advised us that its current practice, upon receipt of any payment in respect of securities such as the New Notes (including principal and interest), is to credit the accounts of the relevant participants with the payment on the payment date in amounts proportionate to their respective holdings in the principal amount of the relevant security as shown on the records of DTC, unless DTC has reason to believe it will not receive payment on such payment date. Payments by the participants and the indirect participants to the beneficial owners of New Notes will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices and will be the responsibility of the participants or the indirect participants and will not be the responsibility of DTC, the Trustee or us. Neither we nor the Trustee will be liable for any delay by DTC or any of its participants in identifying the beneficial owners of the New Notes, and we and the Trustee may conclusively rely on and will be protected in relying on instructions from DTC or its nominee for all purposes.

Interests in the global notes are expected to be eligible to trade in DTC’s Same-Day Funds Settlement System and secondary market trading activity in such interests will therefore settle in immediately available funds, subject in all cases to the rules and procedures of DTC and its participants.

DTC has advised us that it will take any action permitted to be taken by a holder of New Notes only at the direction of one or more participants to whose account with DTC interests in the global notes are credited and only in respect of such portion of the aggregate principal amount of the New Notes as to which such participant or participants has or have given such direction.

Although DTC has agreed to the foregoing procedures to facilitate transfers of interests in the global notes among participants in DTC, it is under no obligation to perform or to continue to perform such procedures, and the procedures may be discontinued at any time. Neither we nor the Trustee will have any responsibility for the performance by DTC or its participants or indirect participants of their respective obligations under the rules and procedures governing their operations.

The information in this section concerning DTC and its book-entry system has been obtained from sources that we believe to be reliable, but we take no responsibility for the accuracy thereof.

Exchange of Book-Entry Notes for Certificated Notes

If (i) DTC is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as depositary and a successor depositary is not appointed by us within 90 days, (ii) DTC has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and a successor depositary is not appointed by us within 90 days, (iii) we, at our option, notify the Trustee in writing that we elect to cause the issuance of the New Notes in the form of certificated notes, or (iv) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon request by the holders of the New Notes, we will issue New Notes in certificated form in exchange for global securities. The indenture permits us to determine at any time and in our sole discretion that the New Notes shall no longer be represented by global securities. DTC has advised us that, under its current practices, it would notify its participants of our request, but will only withdraw beneficial interests from the global security at the request of each DTC participant. We would issue definitive certificates in exchange for any beneficial interests withdrawn.

Payment

The indenture requires that payments in respect of New Notes represented by global notes, including principal and interest, be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by DTC. With respect to New Notes in certificated form, we will make all payments of principal and interest on the New Notes by mailing a check to the registered address of the holder thereof or by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States if such holder elects payment by wire transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee to such effect designating such account no later than 30 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its discretion).

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The following is a summary of the material United States federal income tax consequences of the exchange of Outstanding Notes for New Notes in the exchange offers. This summary is based on the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), Treasury regulations thereunder and administrative interpretations and judicial decisions, all as in effect on the date of this prospectus and all of which are subject to change, with possible retroactive effect. No opinion of counsel has been obtained, and we do not intend to seek a ruling from the United States Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”), as to any of the tax consequences discussed below. There can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge one or more of the tax consequences described below.

This summary does not purport to address all tax consequences that may be important to a particular holder in light of that holder’s particular circumstances, and does not apply to persons subject to special treatment under United States federal income tax law (including, without limitation, a bank, governmental authority or agency, financial institution, insurance company, pass-through entity, tax-exempt organization, broker or dealer in securities or small business investment company, an employee of ours or other service provider to us, a person holding Outstanding Notes that are a hedge against, or that are hedged against, currency risk or that are part of a straddle, constructive sale or conversion transaction, a person that owns more than 10% of our common stock (actually or constructively), a person that is in bankruptcy or a regulated investment company or real estate investment trust). This summary assumes that each holder of Outstanding Notes holds such securities as a “capital asset” within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code. Additionally, this summary does not discuss any tax consequences that may arise under any laws other than United States federal income tax law, including under federal estate and gift tax laws or state, local or non-United States tax law.

The United States federal income tax consequences to a partner in an entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes that holds Outstanding Notes generally will depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partner and the partnership. A partnership, or a partner in a partnership, holding Outstanding Notes should consult its own tax advisor.

THIS SUMMARY IS NOT INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE A COMPLETE ANALYSIS OF ALL TAX CONSIDERATIONS RELEVANT TO A PARTICULAR HOLDER. ACCORDINGLY, THE FOLLOWING SUMMARY OF MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY AND IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR CAREFUL TAX PLANNING AND ADVICE BASED UPON THE INDIVIDUAL CIRCUMSTANCES PERTAINING TO A HOLDER. YOU ARE URGED TO CONSULT YOUR OWN TAX ADVISOR FOR THE FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES APPLICABLE TO THE TRANSACTIONS DESCRIBED IN THIS REGISTRATION STATEMENT.

Consequences of Tendering Outstanding Notes

The exchange of your Outstanding Notes for New Notes in the exchange offers should not constitute an exchange for United States federal income tax purposes because the New Notes should not be considered to differ materially in kind or extent from the Outstanding Notes exchanged therefor. Accordingly, the exchange offers should have no United States federal income tax consequences to you if you exchange your Outstanding Notes for New Notes and the New Notes you receive should be treated as a continuation of your investment in the Outstanding Notes. Consequently, there should be no change in your tax basis and your holding period should carry over to the New Notes. In addition, the United States federal income tax consequences of holding and disposing of your New Notes should be the same as those applicable to your Outstanding Notes.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Each broker-dealer that receives New Notes for its own account pursuant to the exchange offers must acknowledge that it may be a statutory underwriter and that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such New Notes. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of New Notes received in exchange for Outstanding Notes where such Outstanding Notes were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. We have agreed that, for a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date, we will make this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. In addition, until May 5, 2016 (90 days after the date of this prospectus), all dealers effecting transactions in the New Notes, whether or not participating in the exchange offers, may be required to deliver a prospectus.

We will not receive any proceeds from any sale of the New Notes by broker-dealers. The New Notes received by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to the exchange offers may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the New Notes or a combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer or the purchasers of any such New Notes. Any broker-dealer that resells New Notes that were received by it for its own account pursuant to the exchange offers and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such New Notes may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and any profit on any such resale of New Notes and any commission or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. The letter of transmittal states that, by acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act.

Furthermore, any broker-dealer that acquired any of the Outstanding Notes directly from us:


•	may not rely on the applicable interpretation of the staff of the SEC’s position contained in Exxon Capital Holdings Corp., SEC no-action letter (publicly available May 13, 1988), Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, SEC no-action letter (publicly available June 5, 1991) and Shearman & Sterling, SEC no-action letter (publicly available July 2, 1993); and


•	must also be named as a selling noteholder in connection with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act relating to any resale transaction.

For a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date, we will promptly send additional copies of this prospectus and any amendment or supplement to this prospectus to any broker-dealer that requests such documents in the letter of transmittal. We have agreed to pay all expenses incident to the exchange offers (including the expenses of one counsel for the holders of the Notes) other than transfer taxes and commissions or concessions of any brokers or dealers and will indemnify the holders of the Notes (including any broker-dealers) against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
