$450,000,000 4.000% Senior Notes due 2032

$450,000,000 4.500% Senior Notes due 2052

We are offering $450,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our 4.000% senior notes due 2032 (the “2032 notes”) and $450,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our 4.500% senior notes due 2052 (the “2052 notes” and, together with the 2032 notes, the “notes”).

We will pay interest on the notes semi-annually on each March 25 and September 25, commencing on September 25, 2022. We may redeem the applicable series of notes at our option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time for cash, at the applicable redemption price described under the heading “Description of Notes—Optional Redemption.” If we experience a Change of Control Repurchase Event (as defined herein), unless we have exercised our right to redeem the notes, we will be required to offer to repurchase both series of notes from holders for cash as described under the heading “Description of Notes—Offer to Repurchase Upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event.”

The notes will be our senior unsecured obligations, and will rank equally in right of payment with all of our other senior unsecured indebtedness from time to time outstanding. The notes will be issued only in registered form in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Investing in the notes involves risks. See “Risk Factors“ beginning on page S-10 of this prospectus supplement and page 3 of the accompanying prospectus before investing in the notes.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

The notes of each series are a new issue of securities with no established trading market. We do not intend to list the notes on any securities exchange or arrange for the quotation of the notes on any automated dealer quotation system.

We expect to deliver the notes to investors in registered book-entry form through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company for the accounts of its participants, including Clearstream Banking S.A. and Euroclear Bank SA/NV, as operator of the Euroclear System, on or about March 25, 2022.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference herein contain certain “forward-looking statements” made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. These include statements regarding our general business strategies, anticipated market potential, the potential impact of costs, including material and labor costs, the potential impact of inflation, the effects of recent geopolitical events on our business and prospects, the potential of our brands expected capital spending, expected pension contributions, expected impact of acquisitions, the anticipated effects of recently issued accounting standards on our financial statements, planned business strategies, future financial performance and other matters. Statements that include the words “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “projects,” “estimates,” “plans” and similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “should,” “would,” “may” and “could” are generally forward-looking in nature and not historical facts. Where, in any forward-looking statement, we express an expectation or belief as to future results or events, such expectation or belief is based on the expectations, estimates, assumptions and projections about our industry, business and future financial results available at the time this report is filed with the SEC. Although we believe that these statements are based on reasonable assumptions, they are subject to numerous factors, risks and uncertainties that could cause actual outcomes and results to be materially different from those indicated in such statements. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to, and expressly disclaim any such obligation to, update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events, new information or changes to future results over time or otherwise. The risks, uncertainties and other factors that prospective investors should consider include, but are not limited to, the following:

RISK FACTORS

An investment in the notes involves various risks. Before making a decision about investing in the notes, you should carefully consider the following risk factors and those under the heading “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, as well as the other information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. These risks are not intended as, and should not be construed as, an exhaustive list of relevant risk factors. There may be other risks that a prospective investor should consider that are relevant to the investor’s own particular circumstances or generally.

We may not have sufficient funds to purchase the notes upon a change of control repurchase event, and this covenant provides limited protection to investors.

Holders of the notes may require us to repurchase their notes for cash upon a “Change of Control Repurchase Event” as described under “Description of Notes—Offer to Repurchase Upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event.” We have no present intention to engage in a transaction involving a Change of Control Repurchase Event, although it is possible that we could decide to do so in the future. We cannot assure you that we will have sufficient financial resources, or will be able to arrange sufficient financing, to pay the purchase price of the notes, particularly if a Change of Control Repurchase Event triggers a similar repurchase requirement for, or results in the acceleration of, our other then-existing debt. Certain events that constitute a Change of Control Repurchase Event for the notes are also events of default under our existing credit agreements, which would permit our lenders to accelerate that indebtedness, to the extent amounts are outstanding.

Servicing our debt requires a significant amount of cash, and we may not have sufficient cash flow from our business to pay our substantial debt.

Our ability to make scheduled payments of the principal of, to pay interest on, or to refinance our indebtedness, including the notes, depends on our future performance, which is subject to economic, financial, competitive and other factors beyond our control. Our business may not continue to generate cash flow from operations in the future sufficient to service our debt. If we are unable to generate such cash flow, we may be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as selling assets, restructuring debt, revising or delaying our strategic plans or obtaining additional equity capital on terms that may be onerous or unfavorable to us. Our ability to refinance our indebtedness will depend on the capital markets and our financial condition at such time, and we may not be able to refinance any of our indebtedness or incur new indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms to us or at all.

The notes do not restrict our ability to incur additional debt or prohibit us from taking other actions, which could have a negative impact on the trading value of the notes.

We are not restricted under the terms of the indenture, the supplemental indenture or the notes from incurring additional indebtedness. The terms of the indenture and supplemental indenture limit our ability to secure additional debt without also securing the notes and to enter into sale and leaseback transactions. However, these limitations are subject to certain exceptions. See “Description of Notes—Certain Covenants—Limitations on Liens” and “Description of Notes—Certain Covenants—Restriction on Sales and Leasebacks.” In addition, the indenture, the supplemental indenture and the notes do not require us to achieve or maintain any minimum financial results relating to our financial position or results of operations. Our ability to recapitalize, secure existing or future debt or take a number of other actions that are not limited by the terms of the indenture, the supplemental indenture and the notes, could have the effect of diminishing our ability to make payments on the notes when due.

S-10

Additionally, under the terms of the indenture, we may restructure our restricted subsidiaries without your consent in a manner such that they could no longer be deemed restricted subsidiaries and not subject to our restrictive covenants in the indenture. This may have a material and adverse effect on the trading value of your notes.

Our right to redeem notes may mean that you may not be able to reinvest the redemption proceeds in a comparable security at a comparable interest rate.

We may choose to redeem your notes from time to time. If prevailing rates are lower at the time of redemption, you likely would not be able to reinvest the redemption proceeds in a comparable security at an effective interest rate as high as the then-current interest rate on the notes being redeemed.

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

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

We may continue to repurchase our stock, which will reduce cash reserves available for repayment of the notes.

We have repurchased, and may continue to repurchase, our common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. These purchases may be significant, and any purchase would reduce cash available to repay the notes. On March 1, 2022, our board of directors authorized us to repurchase up to $750 million of shares of our common stock through March 1, 2024. This $750 million share repurchase authorization is in addition to the $134.6 million remaining under an existing authorization which expires on July 23, 2023.

Active trading markets for the notes may not develop. If any develop, they may not be liquid.

Each series of the notes is a new issue of securities with no established trading market. We do not intend to list the notes on any national securities exchange or to seek their quotation on any automated dealer quotation system. If active trading markets do not develop or are not maintained, holders of the notes may experience difficulty in reselling, or an inability to sell, the notes. Further, we cannot provide assurances about liquidity of any markets that may develop for the notes, your ability to sell your notes or the prices at which you will be able to sell your notes. Any trading markets for the notes that develop and any future trading prices of the notes may be affected by many factors, including:

S-11

Changes in our credit ratings may adversely affect the value of the notes.

Credit ratings assigned to the notes may be lowered, suspended or withdrawn entirely by the rating agencies, if, in each rating agency’s judgment, circumstances warrant such an action. Further, any such ratings will be limited in scope and will not address all material risks relating to an investment in the notes, but rather will reflect only the view of each rating agency at the time the rating is issued. The ratings are based on current information furnished to the rating agencies by us and information obtained by the rating agencies from other sources. An explanation of the significance of a rating may be obtained from such rating agency. Actual or anticipated changes or downgrades in our credit ratings, including any announcement that our ratings are under further review for a downgrade, could adversely affect the market values or liquidity of the notes and increase our corporate borrowing costs.

The notes are obligations of Fortune Brands Home & Security, Inc. and not of our subsidiaries, and will be structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries.

The notes are our general unsecured obligations exclusively and not of any of our subsidiaries. A significant portion of our operations is conducted through our subsidiaries. Our subsidiaries are separate legal entities that have no obligation to pay any amounts due under the notes or to make any funds available therefor, whether by dividends, loans or other payments. Our rights and the rights of our creditors (including holders of the notes being offered under this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus) and stockholders to participate in any distribution of the assets or earnings of any subsidiary will be structurally subordinated to the claims of creditors, including trade creditors, of that subsidiary, except to the extent that our claims as a creditor of such subsidiary may be recognized.

The notes will be subject to the prior claims of any secured creditors, and if a default occurs, we may not have sufficient funds to fulfill our obligations under the notes.

The notes are unsecured obligations, ranking equally with all of our future senior unsecured indebtedness and effectively junior to any secured indebtedness we may incur, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness. The indenture and supplemental indenture governing the notes permits us to incur secured debt under specified circumstances as described under “Description of Notes—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Liens.” If we incur secured debt, our assets securing that indebtedness will be subject to prior claims by our secured creditors. In the event of our bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution or other winding up, our assets will be available to pay obligations on the notes only after all debt secured by those assets has been repaid in full. Holders of the notes will participate in any remaining assets ratably with all of our unsecured and unsubordinated creditors, including trade creditors. If there are not sufficient assets remaining to pay all these creditors, then all or a portion of the notes then outstanding would remain unpaid.

S-12

USE OF PROCEEDS

We estimate that we will receive net proceeds from this offering of approximately $880,132,500, after deducting the underwriters’ discounts and other estimated offering expenses payable by us. We intend to use the net proceeds we receive from the offering to repay indebtedness outstanding under our $1.1 billion term loan facility (the “term loan facility”) and for general corporate purposes. The term loan facility matures in November 2022. Interest rates under the term loan facility are variable based on SOFR at the time of borrowing and the Company’s long-term credit rating and can range from SOFR + 0.625% to SOFR + 1.25%. The proceeds of borrowings under the term loan facility may be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital, capital expenditures, permitted acquisitions and other lawful corporate purposes. Affiliates of certain of the underwriters are lenders with respect to amounts currently outstanding under our term loan facility, and will receive a ratable portion of the net proceeds of this offering used to repay amounts outstanding thereunder. This amount will equal a significant portion of the net proceeds of the offering. See “Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest)—Conflicts of Interest.”

S-13

CAPITALIZATION

The following table sets forth our capitalization as of December 31, 2021 (i) on a historical basis and (ii) as adjusted to give effect to the sale of the notes in this offering and our anticipated use of net proceeds from the offering thereof, as described under “Use of Proceeds.” You should read this table in conjunction with “Use of Proceeds” and our consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. The as adjusted information may not reflect our cash, short-term and long-term debt and capitalization in the future.

S-14

DESCRIPTION OF NOTES

The following description is a summary of the material provisions of the notes and the Indenture (as defined below). It does not restate those instruments and agreements in their entirety. We urge you to read those instruments and agreements because they, and not this description, define your rights as holders of notes. The notes will have the terms described below. Capitalized terms used but not defined below or under “—Certain Definitions” have the meanings given to them in the Indenture relating to the notes. In this section and under the caption “Description of Debt Securities” in the accompanying prospectus, the terms “the Company,” “Fortune Brands,” “we,” “our,” or “us” refer only to Fortune Brands Home & Security, Inc. and not to any of its subsidiaries.

General Terms of the Notes

The notes being offered by this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus will be issued under an indenture dated as of June 15, 2015 and a supplemental indenture (together, the “Indenture”) to be entered into in connection with the issuance of the notes among us, Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee, and Citibank, N.A., as securities agent. This prospectus supplement refers to Wilmington Trust, National Association as the “trustee” and Citibank, N.A., as “securities agent.” The Indenture is subject to and governed by the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.

The Indenture and the notes do not limit the amount of indebtedness which may be incurred or the amount of securities which may be issued by us, and contain no financial or similar restrictions on us subject to certain limited exceptions. See “—Limitations on Liens” and “—Restrictions on Sales and Leasebacks.”

The original principal amount of the 2032 notes will be $450,000,000, and the original principal amount of the 2052 notes will be $450,000,000.

We may, from time to time, without giving notice to or seeking the consent of the holders or beneficial owners of the applicable series of notes, issue additional debt securities having the same terms (except for the issue date and, in some cases, the public offering price, the first interest payment date and the date for which interest begins to accrue) as, and ranking equally and ratably with, the notes of that series. Any additional debt securities having such similar terms, together with the notes of such series, will constitute a single series of securities under the Indenture; provided that such additional debt securities are fungible with the previously issued series of notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The notes will be our senior unsecured obligations, will rank equally in right of payment with all of our existing and future senior unsecured debt and will rank senior in right of payment to all of our existing and future subordinated debt. The notes will be effectively subordinated to our secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness and structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of our subsidiaries, including trade payables. As of December 31, 2021, our subsidiaries did not have any indebtedness and we and our subsidiaries did not have any secured indebtedness.

The notes of each series will be issued only in fully registered form without coupons, in minimum denominations of $2,000 with integral multiples of $1,000 thereof.

The 2032 notes will mature on March 25, 2032, and the 2052 notes will mature on March 25, 2052.

S-15

The 2032 notes will bear interest at the rate of 4.000% per year, and the 2052 notes will bear interest at the rate of 4.500% per year. Interest on the notes will accrue from March 25, 2022 and be payable semi-annually in arrears on March 25 and September 25 of each year, commencing on September 25, 2022 to the persons in whose names the notes were registered at the close of business on the immediately preceding March 10 and September 10, respectively (whether or not a Business Day). Interest on the notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

Any payment otherwise required to be made in respect of the notes on a date that is not a Business Day may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on that date. No additional interest shall accrue as a result of a delayed payment.

Principal and interest will be payable, and the notes will be transferable or exchangeable, at the office or offices or agency maintained by us for this purpose. Payment of interest and principal on the notes may be made at our option by check mailed to the registered holders or by wire transfer to an account maintained by the payee located in the United States.

The notes will be represented by one or more global securities registered in the name of a nominee of DTC. The notes will be available only in book-entry form. See “Book-Entry Delivery and Form.”

We will initially appoint the securities agent at its corporate trust office as a paying agent, transfer agent and registrar for the notes. We will cause each transfer agent to act as a co-registrar and will cause to be kept at the office of the registrar a register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as we may prescribe, we will provide for the registration of the notes and registration of transfers of the notes. We may vary or terminate the appointment of any paying agent or transfer agent, or appoint additional or other such agents or approve any change in the office through which any such agent acts. We will provide you with notice of any resignation, termination or appointment of the trustee or any paying agent or transfer agent, and of any change in the office through which any such agent will act.

Optional Redemption

Prior to December 25, 2031, in the case of the 2032 notes, or prior to September 25, 2051, in the case of the 2052 notes (in each case, as applicable, the “Par Call Date”), we may redeem the applicable series of notes at our option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time for cash, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of:

(1)(a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the redemption date (assuming the notes of the series to be redeemed matured on the Par Call Date for the notes of such series) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 25 basis points, in the case of the 2032 notes, and 35 basis points, in the case of the 2052 notes, less (b) interest accrued to the date of redemption; and

(2)     100% of the principal amount of the notes of such series to be redeemed,

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

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

S-16

Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on the notes that are due and payable on interest payment dates falling on or prior to a redemption date will be payable on the interest payment date to the registered holders as of the close of business on the relevant record date according to the notes and the Indenture.

We will mail notice of any redemption at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each registered holder of the notes to be redeemed. Once notice of redemption is mailed, the notes called for redemption will become due and payable on the redemption date and at the applicable redemption price, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date.

On and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the notes or any portion of the notes called for redemption (unless we default in the payment of the redemption price and accrued interest). On or before the redemption date, we will deposit with a paying agent or the securities agent money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on the notes to be redeemed on that date. If less than all of the securities of any series are to be redeemed, the securities to be redeemed shall be selected by the securities agent by a method the securities agent deems to be fair and appropriate or in accordance with applicable DTC procedures.

The notes will not be entitled to the benefit of any mandatory redemption or sinking fund.

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

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

If on the third Business Day preceding the redemption date H.15 or any successor designation or publication is no longer published, we shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding such redemption date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the Par Call Date for the notes of such series, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on such Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from such Par Call Date, one with

S-17

a maturity date preceding such Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following such Par Call Date, we shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding such Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on such Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, we shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

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

Offer to Repurchase Upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event

If a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurs, unless we have exercised our right to redeem the notes as described above, holders of notes will have the right to require us to repurchase for cash all or any part (in integral multiples of $1,000) of their notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”). In the Change of Control Offer, we will be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the notes repurchased, to, but not including, the date of repurchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control Repurchase Event, or, at our option, prior to any Change of Control, but after the public announcement of the Change of Control, we will be required to mail (or use such electronic means as are acceptable to the applicable Depositary for any notes) a notice to holders of notes describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute the Change of Control Repurchase Event and offering to repurchase the notes on the date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), pursuant to the procedures required by the notes and described in such notice. The notice shall, if mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the Change of Control occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date specified in the notice. We will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the notes as a result of a Change of Control Repurchase Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control provisions of the notes, we will be required to comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached our obligations under the Change of Control provisions of the notes by virtue of such compliance.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, we will be required, to the extent lawful, to:

S-18

The definition of Change of Control includes a phrase relating to sale, assignment, transfer, lease or other conveyance (other than by way of merger or consolidation) of “all or substantially all” of our properties and assets. Although there is a limited body of case law interpreting the phrase “substantially all,” there is no precise established definition of the phrase under applicable law. Accordingly, the ability of a holder of notes to require Fortune Brands to repurchase its notes as a result of a sale, assignment, transfer, lease or conveyance of less than all of the assets of Fortune Brands to another Person or group may be uncertain.

Certain Covenants

Limitations on Liens

The Indenture provides that we will not, and will not permit any of our Restricted Subsidiaries to, create, incur, issue, assume or guarantee any debt for borrowed money secured by a Lien (other than Permitted Liens) upon any Principal Property or on any capital stock of any Restricted Subsidiary (in each case, whether owned on the date of the Indenture or thereafter acquired), without equally and ratably securing any notes then outstanding, unless the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding debt for borrowed money of Fortune Brands and its Restricted Subsidiaries that is secured by Liens (other than Permitted Liens) on any Principal Property or upon the capital stock of any Restricted Subsidiary (in each case, whether owned on the date of the Indenture or thereafter acquired) plus the amount of all outstanding Attributable Debt incurred in respect of Sale and Leaseback Transactions involving any Principal Properties would not exceed 15% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets calculated as of the date of the creation or incurrence of the Lien.

Restrictions on Sales and Leasebacks

The Indenture provides that we will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into any arrangement with any Person providing for the leasing by us or any Restricted Subsidiary of any property or assets that have been or are to be sold or transferred by us or such Restricted Subsidiary to such Person, with the intention of taking back a lease of such property or assets (a “Sale and Leaseback Transaction”) unless either:

The foregoing restriction in the paragraph above will not apply to any Sale and Leaseback Transaction (i) for a term of not more than three years including renewals; (ii) between us and a Restricted Subsidiary or between Restricted Subsidiaries, provided that the lessor is us or a wholly owned Restricted Subsidiary; or (iii) entered into within 120 days after the later of the acquisition or completion of construction of the subject property or assets.

S-19

Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets

The Indenture provides that we shall not consolidate with or merge into any Person or sell, assign, transfer, lease or otherwise convey all or substantially all our properties and assets unless:

Upon any consolidation or merger, or any conveyance or transfer of all or substantially all our properties and assets in accordance with the foregoing paragraph, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into which we are merged or to which such conveyance or transfer is made is substituted for us as obligor under the Indenture. (Section 8.02).

Under the terms of the Indenture, we may restructure our restricted subsidiaries without your consent in a manner such that they could no longer be deemed restricted subsidiaries and not subject to our restrictive covenants in the Indenture. This may have a material and adverse effect on the trading value of your notes.

Events of Default

The following are Events of Default under the Indenture with respect to the notes:

S-20

The Indenture provides that the trustee shall notify the holders of notes of all defaults actually known to a responsible officer of the trustee and affecting those notes within 90 days after the occurrence of a default unless the defaults shall have been cured before the giving of the notice. The term “default” or “defaults” means any event or condition which is, or with notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default. The Indenture provides that notwithstanding the foregoing, except in the case of a default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any of the notes, the trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if the trustee determines in good faith that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the holders of the notes.

The Indenture provides that in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization with respect to Fortune Brands, all outstanding notes of each series will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. The Indenture provides that if any other Event of Default with respect to any series of notes shall have occurred and be continuing, either the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of notes of that series then outstanding may declare the principal amount of all the notes of that series to be due and payable immediately. However, upon certain conditions such declaration may be annulled. Any past defaults and the consequences of the defaults may be waived by the holders of a majority in principal amount of the notes of that series then outstanding if all amounts due to the trustee and the securities agent have been paid in full, except for a default (1) in the payment of principal of or interest on notes of that series or (2) in respect of a covenant or provision of the Indenture that cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the holder of each note of such series affected, which defaults cannot be waived. The Indenture also permits Fortune Brands to omit compliance with certain covenants in the Indenture with respect to notes of any series upon waiver by the holders of a majority in principal amount of the notes of such series then outstanding.

Subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to the duties of the trustee or the securities agent in case an Event of Default with respect to any series of notes shall occur and be continuing, the trustee or the securities agent shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the trusts or powers vested in it by the Indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders of that series, unless such holders shall have offered to the trustee or the securities agent security or indemnity satisfactory to the trustee and securities agent. Subject to such provisions for security or indemnification and certain limitations contained in the Indenture, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the notes of each series affected by an Event of Default and then outstanding shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee under the Indenture or exercising any trust or power conferred on the trustee with respect to the notes of that series.

No holder of any note of any series will have any right by virtue or by availing of any provision of the Indenture to institute any proceeding at law or in equity or in bankruptcy or otherwise upon or under or with respect to the Indenture or for any remedy thereunder, unless such holder shall have previously given the trustee written notice of an Event of Default with respect to notes of that series and unless also the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding notes of that series shall have made written request, and offered to the trustee indemnity satisfactory to the trustee to institute such proceeding as trustee and the trustee shall have failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days after its receipt of such request, and the trustee shall not have received from the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding notes of that series a direction inconsistent with such request. However, the right of a holder of any note to receive payment of the principal of and any interest on such note on or after the due dates expressed in such note, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such holder.

S-21

Modification of the Indenture

We may modify the Indenture or any supplemental indenture governing the terms of the notes, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions. The conditions depend, among other things, on the type of modifications that may be made. These are discussed in the accompanying prospectus under the heading “Description of Debt Securities—Modification of Indenture” which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement.

Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture

The Indenture will be discharged and canceled upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, including the payment of all the notes of a series or the deposit with the securities agent of cash or appropriate Government Obligations or a combination thereof sufficient for such payment or redemption in accordance with the Indenture and the terms of the notes of such series. These provisions are described in the accompanying prospectus under the heading “Description of Debt Securities—Satisfaction and Discharge; Defeasance—Satisfaction and Discharge” which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement.

Covenant Defeasance and Discharge

The notes have been issued subject to provisions of the Indenture which gives us the option to either “discharge” or “defease” certain covenants if certain conditions are satisfied. The effect of a discharge or covenant defeasance, and the conditions that must be satisfied for each, are described in the accompanying prospectus under the heading “Description of Debt Securities—Satisfaction and Discharge; Defeasance—Covenant Defeasance and Discharge” which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement.

occurred in respect of a particular Change of Control (and thus shall not be deemed a Below Investment Grade Rating Event for purposes of the definition of Change of Control Repurchase Event) if the Rating Agencies making the reduction in rating to which this definition would otherwise apply do not announce or publicly confirm or inform the trustee and the securities agent in writing at our request that the reduction was the result, in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised of or arising as a result of, or in respect of, the applicable Change of Control (whether or not the applicable Change of Control shall have occurred at the time of the Below Investment Grade Rating Event).

Funded Debt does not include (1) obligations created pursuant to leases, (2) any debt or portion thereof maturing by its terms within one year from the time of any computation of the amount of outstanding Funded Debt unless such debt shall be extendable or renewable at the sole option of the obligor in such manner that it may become payable more than one year from such time, (3) any debt for which money in the amount necessary for the payment or redemption of such debt is deposited in trust either at or before the maturity date thereof, (4) endorsements of negotiable instruments for collection, deposit or negotiation, or (5) guarantees by Fortune Brands or a Restricted Subsidiary arising in connection with the sale, discount, guarantee or pledge of notes, chattel mortgages, leases, accounts receivable, trade acceptances and other paper arising, in the ordinary course of business, out of installment or conditional sales to or by, or transactions involving title retention with, distributors, dealers or other customers, of merchandise, equipment or services.

Book-Entry Delivery and Form

The notes will be issued in the form of one or more fully registered global notes which will be deposited with, or on behalf of, DTC and registered in the name of the Cede & Co., DTC’s nominee. Beneficial interests in the global notes will be represented through book-entry accounts of financial institutions acting on behalf of beneficial owners as direct and indirect participants in DTC. Investors may elect to hold interests in the global notes through DTC, Clearstream, or Euroclear if they are participants of such systems, or indirectly through organizations which are participants in such systems. Clearstream and Euroclear will hold interests on behalf of their participants through customers’ securities accounts in Clearstream’s and Euroclear’s names on the books of their respective depositaries. Clearstream’s and Euroclear’s depositaries will hold interests in customers’ securities accounts in the depositaries’ names on the books of DTC. Except as set forth 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.

DTC has advised us that it is (1) a limited purpose trust company organized under the laws of the State of New York, (2) a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, (3) a member of the Federal Reserve System, (4) a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code, as amended and (5) a “clearing agency” registered pursuant to Section 17A of the Exchange Act. DTC was created to hold securities for its participants and facilitates the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between participants through electronic book-entry changes to the accounts of its participants, thereby eliminating the need for physical transfer and delivery of certificates. DTC’s participants include securities brokers and dealers, including the underwriters, banks and trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. Indirect access to DTC’s system is also available to other entities such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies, referred to as “indirect participants,” that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a participant, either directly or indirectly. Investors who are not participants may beneficially own securities held by or on behalf of DTC only through participants or indirect participants.

Additional information concerning DTC is included in the accompanying prospectus under the heading “Description of Debt Securities—Book Entry Debt Securities” which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement.

We make no representation as to the accuracy or completeness of such information.

Clearstream has advised that it is incorporated under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg as a professional depositary. Clearstream holds securities for its participating organizations (“Clearstream participants”). Clearstream facilitates the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between Clearstream participants through electronic book-entry changes in accounts of Clearstream participants, eliminating the need for physical movement of certificates. Clearstream provides to Clearstream participants, among other things, services for safekeeping, administration, clearance and settlement of internationally traded securities and securities lending and borrowing. Clearstream interfaces with domestic markets in several countries. As a professional depositary, Clearstream is subject to regulation by the Luxembourg Commission for the Supervision of the Financial Sector (CSSF). Clearstream participants are recognized financial institutions around the world, including underwriters, securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. Indirect access to Clearstream is also available to others, such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Clearstream participant, either directly or indirectly.

Distributions, to the extent received by the U.S. Depositary for Clearstream, with respect to the notes held beneficially through Clearstream will be credited to cash accounts of Clearstream participants in accordance with its rules and procedures.

Euroclear has advised that it was created in 1968 to hold securities for its participants (“Euroclear participants”) and to clear and settle transactions between Euroclear participants through simultaneous electronic book-entry delivery against payment, eliminating the need for physical movement of certificates and eliminating any risk from lack of simultaneous transfers of securities and cash. Euroclear provides various other services, including securities lending and borrowing and interfaces with domestic markets in several countries. Euroclear is operated by Euroclear Bank SA/NV (the “Euroclear Operator”), under contract with Euroclear Clearance Systems S.C., a Belgian cooperative corporation (the “Cooperative”). All operations are conducted by the Euroclear Operator, and all Euroclear securities clearance accounts and Euroclear cash accounts are accounts with the Euroclear Operator not the Cooperative. The Cooperative establishes policy for Euroclear on behalf of Euroclear participants. Euroclear participants include banks (including central banks), securities brokers and dealers and other professional financial intermediaries and may include the underwriters. Indirect access to Euroclear is also available to other firms that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Euroclear participant, either directly or indirectly.

The Euroclear Operator has advised us that it is licensed by the Belgian Banking and Finance Commission to carry out banking activities on a global basis. As a Belgian bank, it is regulated and examined by the Belgian Banking Commission.

Securities clearance accounts and cash accounts with the Euroclear Operator are governed by the Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear and the related Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System, and applicable Belgian law (collectively, the “Terms and Conditions”). The Terms and Conditions govern transfers of securities and cash within Euroclear, withdrawals of securities and cash from Euroclear, and receipts of payments with respect to securities in Euroclear. All securities in Euroclear are held on a fungible basis without attribution of specific certificates to specific securities clearance accounts. The Euroclear Operator acts under the Terms and Conditions only on behalf of Euroclear participants, and has no record of or relationship with persons holding through Euroclear participants.

S-29

Distributions, to the extent received by the U.S. Depositary for Euroclear, with respect to notes held beneficially through Euroclear will be credited to the cash accounts of Euroclear participants in accordance with the Terms and Conditions.

We make no representation as to the accuracy or completeness of information concerning Clearstream or Euroclear Operations provided in this prospectus supplement.

If (1) we notify the trustee and the securities agent in writing that DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream is no longer willing or able to act as a depositary or clearing system for the notes or DTC ceases to be registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act, and a successor depositary or clearing system is not appointed within 90 days of this notice or cessation or (2) we, at our option, notify the trustee and the securities agent in writing that we elect to cause the issuance of the notes in definitive form under the Indenture, then, upon surrender by DTC of the global notes, certificated notes will be issued to each person that DTC identifies as the beneficial owner of the notes represented by the global notes. Upon any such issuance, the securities agent is required to register the certificated notes in the name of the person or persons or the nominee of any of these persons and cause the same to be delivered to these persons. None of we, the trustee or the securities agent shall be liable for any delay by DTC or any participant or indirect participant in identifying the beneficial owners of the related notes and each such person may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, instructions from DTC for all purposes, including with respect to the registration and delivery, and the respective principal amounts, of the notes to be issued.

Title to book-entry interests in the global notes will pass by book-entry registration of the transfer within the records of DTC, Clearstream or Euroclear in accordance with their respective procedures. Book-entry interests in the global notes may be transferred within DTC in accordance with procedures established for this purpose by DTC. Book-entry interests in the notes may be transferred within Euroclear and within Clearstream and between Euroclear and Clearstream in accordance with procedures established for these purposes by Euroclear and Clearstream. Transfers of book-entry interests in the notes between Euroclear and Clearstream and DTC may be effected in accordance with procedures established for this purpose by Euroclear, Clearstream and DTC.

Global Clearance and Settlement Procedures

Subject to compliance with the transfer restrictions applicable to the notes, cross-market transfers between the participants in DTC, on the one hand, and Euroclear or Clearstream participants, on the other hand, will be effected through DTC in accordance with DTC’s rules on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by its respective depositary; however, such cross-market transactions will require delivery of instructions to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by the counterparty in the system in accordance with the rules and procedures and within the established deadlines (Brussels time) of the system. Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, will, if the transaction meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions to its respective depositary to take action to effect final settlement on its behalf by delivering or receiving interests in the relevant global notes in DTC, and making or receiving payment in accordance with normal procedures for same-day funds settlement applicable to DTC. Euroclear participants and Clearstream participants may not deliver instructions directly to the depositaries for Euroclear or Clearstream.

Because of time-zone differences, credits of notes received in Clearstream or Euroclear as a result of a transaction with a DTC participant will be made during subsequent notes settlement processing and dated the business day following the DTC settlement date. Credits or any transactions of the type described above settled during subsequent notes settlement processing will be reported to the relevant Euroclear or Clearstream participants on the business day that the processing occurs. Cash received in Clearstream or Euroclear as a result of sales of the notes by or through a Clearstream participant or a Euroclear participant to a DTC participant will be received with value on

S-30

the DTC settlement date but will be available in the relevant Clearstream or Euroclear cash account only as of the business day following settlement in DTC.

Although DTC, Clearstream and Euroclear have agreed to the foregoing procedures in order to facilitate transfers of the notes among participants of DTC, Clearstream and Euroclear, they are under no obligation to perform or continue to perform these procedures. The foregoing procedures may be changed or discontinued at any time. None of we, the trustee or the securities agent will have any responsibility for the performance by DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream or their respective participants or indirect participants of their respective obligations under the rules and procedures governing their operations.

S-31

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The following summary describes the material United States federal income and estate tax consequences of buying, owning and disposing of the notes by beneficial owners of the notes. We have based this summary on the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended to the date hereof, administrative pronouncements, judicial decisions and final, temporary and proposed Treasury Regulations, changes to any of which subsequent to the date of this prospectus supplement may affect the tax consequences described herein (possibly with retroactive effect). The summary below is limited to initial beneficial owners who hold the notes as capital assets (generally, property held for investment) and who purchase the notes at their “issue price” (as defined below).

For purposes of this discussion, a “United States Holder” means a beneficial owner of a note other than a partnership that is, or is treated as, for United States federal income tax purposes:

A “Non-United States Holder” means a beneficial owner of a note that is not a partnership and that is not a United States Holder.

If a partnership (including any entity treated as a partnership or other pass through entity for United States federal income tax purposes) is a holder of a note, the United States federal income tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Such persons should consult their own tax advisors as to the particular United States federal income tax consequences to them.

This summary does not discuss the particular United States federal income tax consequences that may be relevant to a holder in light of such holder’s particular circumstances or if such holder is subject to special rules under United States federal income tax laws. Special rules apply, for example, to:

S-32

This discussion does not address the tax consequences to Non-United States Holders that are subject to United States federal income tax on a net basis on income realized with respect to a note because such income is effectively connected with the conduct of a United States trade or business. Such holders are generally taxed in a similar manner to United States Holders; although certain special rules apply.

Prospective investors are advised to consult their own tax advisors with respect to the application of the U.S. federal income tax laws to their particular situations as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or foreign taxing jurisdiction.

United States Federal Tax Consequences to United States Holders

Payments of Interest

Interest paid on a note generally will be taxable to a United States Holder as ordinary interest income at the time it accrues or is received, in accordance with the United States Holder’s method of accounting for United States federal income tax purposes. If the stated redemption price at maturity of a note exceeds the issue price of such note by more than a de minimis amount (as explained below), such note will be deemed to have original issue discount (“OID”). The “issue price” of a note will be the first price at which a substantial amount of the notes is sold to the public (i.e., excluding sales to any agent, wholesaler or similar person), and the “stated redemption price at maturity” of a note is its principal amount. However, a note will not be deemed to have OID if its stated redemption price at maturity exceeds its issue price by less than a de minimis amount equal to one-fourth of one percent (0.25%) of its stated redemption price at maturity, multiplied by the number of full years to its maturity. If a note meets this de minimis exception, a United States Holder of that note is generally required to include the de minimis OID amount in income (as capital gain), as principal payments are made on the note, unless the United States Holder elects to apply the constant yield method that otherwise applies to an instrument with more than de minimis OID. If the OID on a note is more than de minimis, a United States Holder will be required to include the OID in income for United States federal income tax purposes as it accrues, in accordance with a constant yield method based on interest compounding and in advance of the cash payments attributable to the income. Since the issue price of the notes is expected to be at par or within the de minimis exception, it is expected, and the rest of this disclosure assumes, that the notes should not be considered to have OID.

In certain circumstances (i.e., optional redemption or the exercise of the change of control put), we may pay amounts in excess of stated interest or principal on the notes or pay amounts other than stated interest prior to maturity of the notes. The potential to make such payments may implicate the provisions of United States Treasury Regulations relating to “contingent payment debt instruments.” If the notes were deemed to be contingent payment debt instruments, a United States Holder might be required to accrue income on the holder’s notes in excess of stated interest, and would be required to treat as ordinary income, rather than capital gain, any gain realized on the taxable disposition of a note before the resolution of the contingencies. Under the applicable United States Treasury Regulations, the possibility that we may pay such excess amounts in the event of an optional redemption will not result in the notes being deemed to be contingent payment debt instruments as a result of a per se

S-33

rule. Under the applicable United States Treasury Regulations, the possibility that we may pay such excess amounts upon exercise of a change of control put will not cause the notes to be treated as contingent payment debt instruments if there is only a remote chance as of the date the notes were issued that such payments will be made. We believe that the likelihood that we will be obligated to make any such change of control put payments is remote. Therefore, we do not intend to treat the notes as subject to the contingent payment debt rules. Our determination is binding on a United States Holder unless such holder discloses its contrary position to the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) in the manner required by applicable United States Treasury Regulations. Our determination is not, however, binding on the IRS, and if the IRS were to challenge this determination, the tax consequences to a holder could differ materially and adversely from those discussed herein. In the event such a contingency were to occur, it would affect the amount and timing of the income recognized by a United States Holder. The remainder of this disclosure assumes that the notes will not be treated as contingent payment debt instruments.

Sale, Exchange or Retirement of the Notes

Upon the sale, exchange, retirement or other taxable disposition of a note, a United States Holder generally will recognize taxable gain or loss equal to the difference, if any, between (i) the sum of the cash plus the fair market value of all other property received on the sale, exchange, retirement or other disposition and (ii) the United States Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the note. A United States Holder’s adjusted tax basis in a note will equal the cost of the note to the United States Holder and increased by any de minimis OID previously included in income under the election described above under “—Payments of Interest.” For these purposes, the amount realized does not include any amount attributable to accrued but unpaid interest. Amounts attributable to accrued but unpaid interest are treated as interest as described under “—Payments of Interest” above.

Gain or loss recognized on the sale, exchange, retirement or other disposition of a note will generally be capital gain or loss and will be long-term capital gain or loss if at the time of sale, exchange, retirement or other disposition the note has been held for more than one year. Long-term capital gains of non-corporate holders are eligible for reduced rates of taxation. For corporate holders, all capital gains are currently subject to U.S. federal income tax at the same rate. The deductibility of any capital losses is subject to limitations.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

A United States Holder generally will be subject to United States backup withholding at the applicable rate with respect to interest, principal or redemption premium, if any, paid on a note, and the proceeds from the sale, exchange, retirement or other disposition of a note, if the United States Holder fails to provide its taxpayer identification number to the paying agent and comply with certain certification procedures or otherwise establish an exemption from backup withholding. In addition, the payments of interest, principal, or redemption premium to, and the proceeds of a sale, exchange, retirement or other disposition by, a United States Holder that is not an “exempt recipient” generally will be subject to information reporting requirements. The amount of any backup withholding from a payment to a United States Holder will be allowed as a credit against the United States Holder’s United States federal income tax liability and may entitle the United States Holder to a refund, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

S-34

United States Federal Tax Consequences to Non-United States Holders

Payments of Interest

Subject to the discussion below concerning backup withholding, interest paid on a note to a Non-United States Holder that is not engaged in a trade or business in the United States generally will not be subject to United States federal income or withholding tax provided that:

Interest paid to a Non-United States Holder that is not engaged in a trade or business in the United States and does not satisfy the conditions described above will be subject to United States withholding tax at a rate of 30 percent, unless an income tax treaty applies to reduce or eliminate withholding and the Non-United States Holder provides us with a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E as applicable (or suitable substitute form) claiming the exemption or reduction in withholding.

Sale, Exchange or Retirement of the Notes

Subject to the discussion below concerning backup withholding, any gain realized by a Non-United States Holder on the sale, exchange, retirement or other disposition of a note generally will not be subject to United States federal income tax unless:

Non-United States Holders described in the second bullet point above will be subject to a United States federal income tax rate of 30% (or a lower applicable income tax treaty rate) on the gain

S-35

derived from the sale or other disposition, which may be offset by certain United States source capital losses. To the extent that any portion of the amount recognized on a sale, redemption, exchange, retirement or other taxable disposition of a note is attributable to accrued but unpaid interest on the note, this amount generally will be taxed in the same manner as described under “—Payments of Interest” above.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

Information returns will be filed with the IRS in connection with payments of interest on the notes. Unless the Non-United States Holder complies with certification procedures to establish that it is not a United States person, information returns may be filed with the IRS in connection with any payment of proceeds from a sale or other disposition of a note and the Non-United States Holder may be subject to United States backup withholding on payments on the note or on the proceeds from a sale or other disposition of the note. The certification procedures required to claim the exemption from withholding tax on interest described above will satisfy the certification requirements necessary to avoid backup withholding as well. The amount of any backup withholding from a payment to a Non-United States Holder will be allowed as a credit against the Non-United States Holder’s United States federal income tax liability and may entitle the Non-United States Holder to a refund, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Estate Tax

Subject to benefits provided by an applicable estate tax treaty, a note held by an individual who at the time of death is not a citizen or resident of the United States (as specifically defined for United States federal estate tax purposes) may be subject to United States federal estate tax upon the individual’s death unless, at such time:

Medicare Tax on Investment Income

A 3.8 percent Medicare tax is generally imposed with respect to “net investment income” above a certain threshold of certain United States citizens and residents, and on the undistributed “net investment income” of certain estates and trusts. Among other things, net investment income generally includes gross income from interest on, and net gains from the disposition of the notes, less certain deductions. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences of this legislation.

Foreign Account Tax Compliance

The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”) imposes a withholding tax of 30% on interest income from, and, after December 31, 2018, the gross proceeds from a disposition of, debt instruments issued by U.S. persons, paid to certain foreign entities unless various information reporting and diligence requirements are satisfied. This would generally apply in the case of such debt instruments held through intermediaries that do not agree to satisfy such diligence and information reporting requirements. Foreign entities located in jurisdictions that have entered into an intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing FATCA may be subject to different rules. Under proposed regulations, the withholding tax would not be imposed on gross proceeds from a disposition of debt instruments. In the preamble to the proposed regulations, the IRS provided that taxpayers may rely upon this change until the issuance of final regulations. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the possible implications of FATCA on their ownership and disposition of the notes.

UNDERWRITING (CONFLICTS OF INTEREST)

Subject to the terms and conditions contained in an underwriting agreement, dated as of the date of this prospectus supplement between us and the underwriters named below, for whom BofA Securities, Inc., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC are acting as representatives, we have agreed to sell to each underwriter, and each underwriter has agreed, severally and not jointly, to purchase from us, the principal amount of notes that appears opposite its name in the table below:

The underwriters are offering the notes subject to their acceptance of the notes from us and subject to prior sale. The underwriting agreement provides that the obligations of the several underwriters to pay for and accept delivery of the notes offered by this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus are subject to certain conditions. The underwriters are obligated to take and pay for all of the notes offered by this prospectus supplement if any such notes are taken.

The underwriters initially propose to offer the notes to the public at the public offering prices that appear on the cover page of this prospectus supplement. In addition, the underwriters may offer the notes to certain dealers at prices that represent a concession not in excess of 0.400% of the principal amount of the 2032 notes and 0.500% of the principal amount of the 2052 notes. Any underwriter may allow, and any such dealer may reallow, a concession not in excess of 0.250% of the principal amount of the 2032 notes and 0.350% of the principal amount of the 2052 notes to certain other dealers. After the initial offering of the notes, the underwriters may from time to time vary the offering prices and other selling terms. The underwriters may offer and sell notes through certain of their affiliates.

The following table shows the underwriting discount that we will pay to the underwriters in connection with the offering of the notes:

Expenses associated with this offering to be paid by us, other than the underwriting discounts, are estimated to be approximately $2,700,000.

S-37

We have also agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments which the underwriters may be required to make in respect of any such liabilities.

The notes are a new issue of securities with no established trading market. We do not intend to apply for listing of the notes on any national securities exchange or for inclusion of the notes on any automated dealer quotation system. We have been advised by the underwriters that they presently intend to make a market in the notes after completion of the offering. However, they are under no obligation to do so and may discontinue any market-making activities at any time without any notice. We cannot assure the liquidity of the trading market for the notes or that an active public market for the notes will develop. If an active public trading market for the notes does not develop, the market price and liquidity of the notes may be adversely affected. If the notes are traded, they may trade at a discount from their initial offering price, depending on prevailing interest rates, the market for similar securities, our operating performance and financial condition, general economic conditions and other factors.

In connection with the offering, the underwriters may purchase and sell the notes in the open market. These transactions may include short sales and purchases on the open market to cover positions created by short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater principal amount of notes than they are required to purchase in the offering. The underwriters must close out any short position by purchasing notes in the open market. A short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the notes in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering.

Similar to other purchase transactions, the underwriters’ purchases to cover the syndicate short sales may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of the notes or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the notes. As a result, the price of the notes may be higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the open market.

Neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of the notes. In addition, neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation that the representatives will engage in these transactions or that these transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

Conflicts of Interest

Some of the underwriters and their affiliates have engaged in, and may in the future engage in, investment banking and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with us or our affiliates. They have received, or may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions. An affiliate of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC serves as administrative agent and is a lender on our revolving credit facility and our term loan facility, an affiliate of BofA Securities, Inc. serves as syndication agent and is a lender under our revolving credit facility and term loan facility and an affiliate of Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is a lender under the term loan facility. In addition, affiliates of BofA Securities, Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC are dealers under our commercial paper program. Affiliates of BofA Securities, Inc., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC will receive their pro rata portions of the borrowings repaid under our term loan facility with the net proceeds of this offering, and the amount received by such affiliates through the repayment of those borrowings may exceed 5% of the net proceeds of this offering. In the event that greater than 5% of the net proceeds from this offering are used to repay indebtedness owed to any individual underwriter or its affiliates, this offering will be conducted in accordance with FINRA Rule 5121. In such event, such underwriter or underwriters will not confirm sales of the notes to accounts over which they exercise discretionary authority without the prior written approval of the customer.

S-38

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

Management uses this measure to assess returns generated by the Company. Management believes this measure provides investors with helpful supplemental information about the Company’s ability to fund internal growth, make acquisitions and repay debt and related interest. This measure may be inconsistent with similar measures presented by other companies.

(a) (b) (c) (e) For definitions of Non-GAAP measures, see Definitions of Terms page.

Definitions of Terms: Non-GAAP Measures

(a) Restructuring charges are costs incurred to implement significant cost reduction initiatives and include workforce reduction costs. “Other charges” represent pre-tax charges or gains directly related to restructuring initiatives that cannot be reported as restructuring under GAAP. Such costs may include losses on disposal of inventories, trade receivables allowances from exiting product lines, accelerated depreciation resulting from the closure of facilities, write-off of displays from exiting a customer relationship, impairments related to previously closed facilities and gains or losses on the sale of previously closed facilities.

In total, the Company recognized charges of $7.2 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, $9.2 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, and $7.5 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019.

At Corporate, other charges for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 include $0.3 million for banking, legal, accounting and other similar services directly related to the acquisition of Larson classified in selling, general and administrative expenses, a charge of $0.2 million for a loss on sale of a Corporate asset and $1.3 million of external costs directly related to evaluation of acquisition targets, these external costs include expenditures for accounting, tax and other similar services. Restructuring and other charges for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, include a mark-to-market expense of $2.2 million classified in the other expense, net associated with the acquisition of the remaining outstanding shares of Flo, which occurred in January 2022. Other charges for the twelve

S-50

months ended December 31, 2020, include expenditures of $4.5 million for banking, legal, accounting and other similar services directly related to the acquisition of Larson classified in selling, general and administrative expenses and a charge of $3.6 million for an impairment of a Corporate asset.

In our Outdoors & Security segment, other charges for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, include an acquisition-related inventory step-up expense (Larson) of $3.4 million classified in cost of products sold. Other charges include an acquisition-related inventory step-up expense (Fiberon) classified in cost of products sold of $1.8 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019.

(b) Asset impairments charges for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, represent impairment charges of $22.5 million related to indefinite-lived tradenames in our Cabinets and Plumbing segments. Asset impairments charges for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019, represent impairment charge of $41.5 million related to indefinite-lived tradenames in our Cabinets segment.

(c) Represents actuarial gains or losses associated with our defined benefit plans. Actuarial gains or losses in a period represent the difference between actual and actuarially assumed experience, principally related to liability discount rates and plan asset returns, as well as other actuarial assumptions including compensation rates, turnover rates, and health care cost trend rates. The Company recognizes actuarial gains or losses immediately in other income (expense) to the extent they cumulatively exceed a “corridor.” The corridor is equal to the greater of 10% of the fair value of plan assets or 10% of a plan’s projected benefit obligation. Actuarial gains or losses are determined at required remeasurement dates which occur at least annually in the fourth quarter. Remeasurements due to plan amendments and settlements may also occur in interim periods during the year. Our other income (expense) reflects our expected rate of return on pension plan assets which in a given period may materially differ from our actual return on plan assets. Our liability discount rates and plan asset returns are based upon difficult to predict fluctuations in global bond and equity markets that are not directly related to the Company’s business. We believe that the exclusion of actuarial gains or losses provides investors with useful supplemental information regarding the underlying performance of the business from period to period. We present this supplemental information because such actuarial gains or losses may create volatility that does not necessarily have an immediate corresponding impact on operating cash flow or the actual compensation and benefits provided to our employees. The table below sets forth additional supplemental information on the Company’s historical actual and expected rate of return on plan assets, as well as discount rates used to value its defined benefit obligations:

(d) EBITDA before charges/gains is net income derived in accordance with GAAP excluding depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, interest expense, restructuring and other charges, asset impairment charges, equity in losses of affiliate, gain (loss) on equity investments, gains (losses) associated with our defined benefit plans and income taxes. EBITDA before charges/gains is a measure not derived in accordance with GAAP. Management uses this measure to assess returns generated by the Company. Management believes this measure provides investors with helpful supplemental information about the Company’s ability to fund internal growth, make acquisitions and repay debt and related interest. This measure may be inconsistent with similar measures presented by other companies.

(e) Gain (loss) on equity investments is related to our investment in Flo Technologies.

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES

Each prospectus supplement will state the particular terms of the debt securities it covers.

We will issue debt securities in one or more series under the indenture, dated as of June 15, 2015, by and among us and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee, and Citibank, N.A., as securities agent (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “indenture”). The indenture is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Any indenture supplement or officers’ certificate we elect to use to establish the terms of debt securities issued under the indenture will be filed with the SEC. The terms of the debt securities of any series will be those specified in or pursuant to the indenture, any supplemental indenture or officers’ certificate, the applicable debt securities for that series and those made part of the indenture by the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”).

This prospectus includes a summary of the indenture. This summary does not include or reflect any changes that may be made through any supplemental indenture. Any supplemental indenture may affect some or all debt securities we issue under the indenture. You should refer to the specific terms of the indenture, and any supplemental indentures we may file, for more detailed information and not rely only on the summary in this prospectus, or any summary contained in the applicable prospectus supplement. Some of the capitalized terms used in the following discussion are defined in the indenture. Those definitions are incorporated by reference into this prospectus. When we use italics, we are referring to sections in the indenture. Wherever we refer to particular provisions of the indenture, those provisions are incorporated by reference in our summary.

The following description of debt securities describes general terms and provisions of the series of debt securities to which any prospectus supplement may relate. When the debt securities of a particular series are offered for sale, the specific terms of those debt securities will be described in a prospectus supplement for those debt securities. If any particular terms of those debt securities described in a prospectus supplement differ from any of the terms of the debt securities generally described in this prospectus, then the terms described in the applicable prospectus supplement will supersede the terms described in this prospectus. As used in this description of debt securities, the terms the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us” refer only to Fortune Brands Home & Security, Inc., and not to any of its subsidiaries.

Determination of Terms

The debt securities of each series offered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement will constitute our unsecured unsubordinated obligations and will rank on parity in right of payment with all of our other existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. We may issue an unlimited principal amount of debt securities under the indenture. The indenture provides that debt securities of any series may be issued up to the aggregate principal amount which may be authorized from time to time by us. Please read the applicable prospectus supplement relating to the debt securities of the particular series being offered thereby for the specific terms of that series of debt securities, including, but not limited to, where applicable:

4

As used in this prospectus and the prospectus supplement relating to the offering of debt securities, references to the principal of and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the debt securities of a series include additional amounts, if any, payable on the debt securities of such series in that context.

We may issue debt securities as original issue discount securities to be sold at a substantial discount below their principal amount. In the event of an acceleration of the maturity of any original issue discount security, the amount payable to the holder upon acceleration will be determined in the manner described in the applicable prospectus supplement. Material federal income tax and other considerations applicable to original issue discount securities will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

The terms of the debt securities of any series may differ from the terms of the debt securities of any other series, and the terms of particular debt securities within any series may differ from each other. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, we may, without the consent of, or notice to, the holders of the debt securities of any series, reopen an existing series of debt securities and issue additional debt securities of that series.

Other than to the extent provided with respect to the debt securities of a particular series and described in the applicable prospectus supplement, the indenture does not contain any provisions that limit our ability to incur

5

indebtedness, which may have an adverse effect on our ability to service our indebtedness (including the debt securities) or that would afford holders of the debt securities protection in the event of:

Form, Denominations, Exchange and Transfer

Unless otherwise provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will issue the debt securities in definitive form solely as registered securities, without coupons. The indenture also provides that we may issue debt securities of a series in temporary or permanent global form. (Section 3.01).

Unless we specify otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will issue registered securities in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. (Section 3.02).

You may surrender debt securities for exchange and registered securities for registration of transfer in the manner, at the places and subject to the restrictions set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. This may be done without service charge but we may require payment of taxes or other governmental charges that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of debt securities.

Unless otherwise provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, in the event of any redemption, we will not be required to:

Payment and Paying Agents

Unless we indicate otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will pay principal of and any premium and any interest on registered securities at the office of the paying agent or paying agents as we may designate at various times. However, we may make interest payments on registered securities (i) by check mailed to the address, as it appears on the security register, of the person entitled to the payments; or (ii) by transfer to an account maintained by the payee with a bank located inside the United States, if the Holder has provided valid wire transfer instructions at least three business days prior to the date such interest payment becomes due. Unless we specify otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will make payment of any installment of interest on registered securities to the person in whose name the registered security is registered at the close of business on the record date for such interest. (Sections 3.07 and 10.02).

We will name the paying agents initially appointed by us for a series of debt securities in the applicable prospectus supplement. We may act as paying agent. We may terminate the appointment of any of the paying agents at various times.

All monies we pay to a paying agent for the payment of principal of, any premium or any interest on any debt securities that remain unclaimed at the end of two years after becoming due and payable will be repaid to us. After that time, the holder of the debt securities will look only to us for payment. (Section 10.03).

Book Entry Debt Securities

The debt securities of a series may be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more global debt securities. Global debt securities will be deposited with, or on behalf of, a depositary identified in the applicable

6

prospectus supplement relating thereto. Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for individual certificates evidencing debt securities, a global debt security may not be transferred except as a whole by the depositary to its nominee or by the nominee to the depositary or by the depositary or its nominee to a successor depositary or to a nominee of the successor depositary. (Section 2.03).

We anticipate that global debt securities will be deposited with, or on behalf of, The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), New York, New York, and that global debt securities will be registered in the name of DTC’s nominee, Cede & Co. We also anticipate that the following provisions will apply to the depository arrangements with respect to global debt securities. Additional or differing terms of the depository arrangements will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

DTC has advised us that it is:

DTC holds securities that its participants deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the settlement among its participants of securities transactions, including transfers and pledges, in deposited securities through electronic computerized book-entry changes in participants’ accounts, which eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (“DTCC”). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others, sometimes referred to in this prospectus as indirect participants, that clear transactions through or maintain a custodial relationship with a direct participant either directly or indirectly. Indirect participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks and trust companies. The rules applicable to DTC and its participants are on file with the SEC.

Purchases of debt securities within the DTC system must be made by or through direct participants, which will receive a credit for the debt securities on DTC’s records. The ownership interest of the actual purchaser or beneficial owner of a debt security is, in turn, recorded on the direct and indirect participants’ records. Beneficial owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchases, but beneficial owners are expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transactions, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the direct or indirect participants through which they purchased the debt securities. Transfers of ownership interests in debt securities are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of participants acting on behalf of beneficial owners. Beneficial owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in the debt securities except in the limited circumstances described below.

To facilitate subsequent transfers, all debt securities deposited by participants with DTC will be registered in the name of DTC’s nominee, Cede & Co. The deposit of debt securities with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. will not change the beneficial ownership of the debt securities. DTC has no knowledge of the actual beneficial owners of the debt securities. DTC’s records reflect only the identity of the direct participants to whose accounts the debt securities are credited. Those participants may or may not be the beneficial owners. The participants are responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.

Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to direct participants, by direct participants to indirect participants and by direct and indirect participants to beneficial owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any legal requirements in effect from time to time.

7

Redemption notices will be sent to DTC or its nominee. If less than all of the debt securities of a series are being redeemed, DTC will reduce the amount of the interest of direct participants in the debt securities in accordance with its procedures.

A beneficial owner of debt securities must give notice to elect to have its debt securities repurchased or tendered, through its participant to the trustee and effect delivery of such debt securities by causing the direct participant to transfer the participant’s interest in such debt securities, on DTC’s records, to the trustee. The requirement for physical delivery of debt securities in connection with a repurchase or tender will be deemed satisfied when the ownership rights in such debt securities are transferred by direct participants on DTC’s records and followed by a book-entry credit of such debt securities to the trustee’s DTC account.

In any case where a vote may be required with respect to the debt securities of any series, neither DTC nor Cede & Co. will give consents for or vote debt securities deposited with them. Under its usual procedures, DTC will mail an omnibus proxy to us as soon as possible after the record date. The omnibus proxy assigns the consenting or voting rights of Cede & Co. to those direct participants to whose accounts the debt securities are credited on the record date identified in a listing attached to the omnibus proxy.

Principal of and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the global debt securities will be paid to Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC. DTC’s practice is to credit direct participants’ accounts on the relevant payment date unless DTC has reason to believe that it will not receive payments on the payment date. Payments by direct and indirect participants to beneficial owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the account of customers in bearer form or registered in “street name.” Those payments will be the responsibility of participants and not of DTC or us, subject to any legal requirements in effect from time to time. Payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, to Cede & Co. is our responsibility, disbursement of payments to direct participants is the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of payments to the beneficial owners is the responsibility of direct and indirect participants. (Section 2.03).

Except as described in this prospectus (or the prospectus supplement for a particular series of debt securities), owners of beneficial interests in a global debt security will not be entitled to have debt securities registered in their names and will not receive physical delivery of debt securities. Accordingly, each beneficial owner must rely on the procedures of DTC to exercise any rights under the debt securities and the indenture. (Section 2.03).

The laws of some jurisdictions may require that some purchasers of securities take physical delivery of securities in definitive form. These laws may impair the ability to transfer or pledge beneficial interests in global debt securities.

DTC is under no obligation to provide its services as depositary for the debt securities of any series and may discontinue providing its services at any time. Neither we nor the trustee or securities agent will have any responsibility for the performance by DTC or its participants or indirect participants under the rules and procedures governing DTC. As noted above, owners of beneficial interests in a global debt security will not receive certificates representing their interests. However, if

we will prepare and deliver certificates for the debt securities of that series in exchange for beneficial interests in the global debt securities. Any beneficial interest in a global debt security that is exchangeable under the

8

circumstances described in the preceding sentence will be exchangeable for debt securities in definitive certificated form registered in the names that DTC directs. It is expected that these names will be based upon directions received by DTC from its participants with respect to ownership of beneficial interests in the global debt securities. (Section 2.03).

According to DTC, the information with respect to DTC in this section and elsewhere in this prospectus has been provided to its participants and other members of the financial community for informational purposes only and is not intended to serve as a representation, warranty, or contract modification of any kind.

Certain Covenants

Any material covenants applicable to the debt securities of any series will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Waiver of Covenants

Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may waive our compliance with certain covenants that relate to such series of outstanding debt securities. (Section 10.08).

Modification of Indenture

In general, our rights and obligations and the rights of holders of debt securities under the indenture may be modified by one or more supplemental indentures if holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of each series affected by the modification consent to it. However, the indenture provides that, unless each affected holder agrees, we cannot make any change to any payment term of a debt security such as:

However, if the trustee, securities agent and we agree, we can enter into one or more supplemental indentures modifying the indenture without notifying any holders or seeking their consent for certain purposes, including, but not limited to, the following:

9

The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may waive our compliance with some of the restrictive provisions of the indenture, which may include covenants, if any, which are specified in the applicable prospectus supplement. The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may, on behalf of all holders of debt securities of that series, waive any past default under the indenture with respect to the debt securities of that series and its consequences, except a default (i) in the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest, if any, on the debt securities of that series or (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the holder of each outstanding debt security of the affected series. (Sections 5.13 and 10.08).

The indenture contains provisions for convening meetings of the holders of a series of debt securities. A meeting may be called at any time by the trustee or the securities agent, and we or holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities may request the securities agent convene a meeting, and, upon delay by the security agent in convening such meeting, may convene a meeting. Notice of a meeting must be given in accordance with the provisions of the indenture. Except for any consent or waiver which must be given by the holder of each outstanding debt security affected in the manner described above, any resolution presented at a meeting or adjourned meeting duly reconvened at which a quorum, as described below, is present may be adopted by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series. However, any resolution with respect to any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver, or other action which may be made, given or taken by the holders of a specified percentage, other than a majority, in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of a series may be adopted at a meeting or adjourned meeting duly reconvened at which a quorum is present by the affirmative vote of the holders of that specified percentage in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series. Any resolution passed or decision taken at any meeting of holders of debt securities of any series duly held in accordance with the indenture will be binding on all holders of debt securities of that series and the related coupons, if any. (Sections 13.01, 13.02 and 13.04).

Defaults and Certain Rights on Default

An “Event of Default” is defined under the indenture as any of the following (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant

10

to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

We will furnish to the trustee and the securities agent annually a written statement as to the fulfillment of our obligations under the indenture. In case an Event of Default with respect to debt securities of any series at the time outstanding occurs and is continuing, the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the debt securities of such series then outstanding may declare the principal of all the debt securities of such series to be due and payable. The indenture permits such declaration, under certain circumstances, to be rescinded by the holders of a majority in principal amount of the debt securities of the series at the time outstanding. (Sections 5.01, 5.02 and 10.04).

Subject to the provisions of the indenture relating to the duties of the trustee and the securities agent in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the indenture provides that the trustee and securities agent are not obligated to exercise any of the rights or powers under the indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders of debt securities, unless the holders have offered to the trustee or securities agent, as applicable, reasonable security or indemnity.

Subject to the provisions for indemnification and certain limitations contained in the indenture, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the debt securities of any series at the time outstanding and so affected have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee or securities agent or exercising any trust or power conferred on the trustee with respect to the debt securities of such series.

The holders of a majority in principal amount of the debt securities of any series at the time outstanding and so affected may, in certain cases, waive any default except a default in payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest, if any, on the debt securities of such series. (Sections 5.12, 5.13 and 6.03).

Satisfaction and Discharge; Defeasance

Satisfaction and Discharge

We may satisfy and discharge our obligations under the indenture by delivering to the securities agent for cancellation all outstanding debt securities of a particular series or by depositing with the securities agent or delivering to the holders, as applicable, after debt securities of a particular series have become due and payable, whether at the maturity date or otherwise, cash sufficient to pay all of the outstanding debt securities of that

11

series and paying all other sums payable under the indenture by us. Such discharge is subject to the other terms contained in the indenture, including the requirement that we provide an officers’ certificate and opinion of counsel to the trustee and securities agent that all of the conditions precedent to the satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. (Section 4.01).

Covenant Defeasance and Discharge

Additionally, at our option, either (a) we are “discharged” (as described below) from our obligations with respect to the outstanding debt securities of a particular series or (b) we have no obligation to comply with certain covenants in the indenture and, if applicable, other covenants as may be specified in the applicable prospectus supplement at any time after the applicable conditions set forth below have been satisfied:

“Discharged” means that we are deemed to have paid and discharged the applicable debt securities and to have satisfied all the obligations under the indenture, except (a) the rights of holders of the debt securities to receive, from the trust fund, payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such debt securities when such payments are due, (b) certain of our obligations with respect to transfer and exchange of the debt securities and (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the trustee under the indenture.

The applicable prospectus supplement may further describe the provisions, if any, permitting or restricting discharge or covenant defeasance with respect to the debt securities of a particular series.
