SUMMARY

This summary highlights certain information about our business and this offering. This is a summary of information contained elsewhere in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus or incorporated by reference herein or therein and does not contain all of the information that you should consider before investing in the notes. For a more complete understanding of this offering and The Walt Disney Company’s business, you should read this entire prospectus supplement, including the section entitled “Risk Factors,” the accompanying prospectus and all documents incorporated by reference herein and therein.

The Walt Disney Company

The Walt Disney Company is a diversified worldwide entertainment company with operations in four business segments: Media Networks; Parks, Experiences and Products; Studio Entertainment; and Direct-to-Consumer & International. The Walt Disney Company is a Delaware corporation having its principal executive offices at 500 South Buena Vista Street, Burbank, California 91521, and its telephone number is (818) 560-1000.

On March 20, 2019, the Company acquired the outstanding capital stock of Twenty-First Century Fox, Inc. (“TFCF”), which was subsequently renamed TFCF Corporation, a diversified global media and entertainment company. Prior to the acquisition, TFCF and a newly-formed subsidiary of TFCF (“New Fox”) entered into a separation agreement, pursuant to which TFCF transferred to New Fox a portfolio of TFCF’s news, sports and broadcast businesses and certain other assets. TFCF retained all of the assets and liabilities not transferred to New Fox, the most significant of which were the Twentieth Century Fox film and television studios, certain cable networks (primarily FX and National Geographic), TFCF’s international television businesses (including Star) and TFCF’s 30% interest in Hulu LLC (“Hulu”). Under the terms of the agreement governing the acquisition, the Company will generally phase out Fox brands by 2024, but has perpetual rights to certain Fox brands, including the Twentieth Century Fox and Fox Searchlight brands.

As a result of the acquisition, the Company’s ownership interest in Hulu increased to 60%, and the Company started consolidating the results of Hulu as of the acquisition date. In May 2019, the Company increased its ownership interest in Hulu to 67%, with NBC Universal (NBCU) owning the remaining 33%. Also in May 2019, the Company entered into a put/call agreement with NBCU that provided the Company with full operational control of Hulu. In order to obtain regulatory approval for the acquisition of TFCF, the Company agreed to sell TFCF’s regional sports networks (RSN) and sports media operations in Brazil and Mexico. The sale of the RSNs was completed in August 2019.

In November 2019, the Company launched Disney+, a subscription-based direct-to-consumer video streaming service with Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars and National Geographic branded programming. The service was launched in the U.S. and four other countries, with further launches in other countries planned throughout 2020 and 2021.

Risk Factors An investment in the notes involves risk.

S-6

RISK FACTORS

Your investment in the notes involves certain risks. In consultation with your own financial, tax and legal advisors, you should carefully consider, among other matters, the following discussion of risks before deciding whether an investment in the notes is suitable for you. The notes are not an appropriate investment for you if you are unsophisticated with respect to their significant components. The risk factors described below may be updated from time to time by our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act that we incorporate by reference herein. The risks and uncertainties described in such incorporated documents and described below are not the only risks and uncertainties that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business, financial condition and results of operations. If any of those risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition and results of operations would suffer. See “Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements.”

General

For an enterprise as large and complex as The Walt Disney Company and its subsidiaries are, a wide range of factors could materially affect future developments and performance. The most significant factors affecting the operations of The Walt Disney Company include those set out in “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 28, 2019, our subsequent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the other filings (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the risks described in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 19, 2020) with the Securities and Exchange Commission that are incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. Additional factors relevant to this offering include the following.

Holders of the notes will receive payments solely in CAD, except under the limited circumstances provided herein.

All payments of interest, premium, if any, and the principal of the notes, any redemption price for the notes, and any Additional Amounts payable in respect of the notes will be made in CAD, except under the circumstances described under “Currency Conversion.” We, the underwriters, the trustee and the paying agent with respect to the notes will not be obligated to convert, or to assist any registered owner or beneficial owner of notes in converting, payments of interest, principal, premium, any redemption price or any Additional Amounts in CAD made with respect to the notes into U.S. dollars or any other currency.

Holders of the notes may be subject to the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, as well as possible exchange controls, relating to CAD.

The initial investors in the notes will be required to pay for the notes in CAD. Neither we nor the underwriters will be obligated to assist the initial investors in obtaining CAD or in converting other currencies into CAD to facilitate the payment of the purchase price for the notes. An investment in any security denominated in, and all payments with respect to which are to be made in, a currency other than the currency of the country in which an investor in the notes resides or the currency in which an investor conducts its business or activities (the “investor’s home currency”) entails significant risks not associated with a similar investment in a security denominated in the investor’s home currency. In the case of the notes offered hereby, these risks include the possibility of:

• significant changes in rates of exchange between CAD and the investor’s home currency;

• the imposition or subsequent modification of foreign exchange controls with respect to CAD or the investor’s home currency; and

• the imposition or subsequent modification of any foreign exchange gains results from an investment in the notes.

S-7

Even if there are no actual exchange controls, it is possible that CAD would not be available to us when payments on a note are due because of circumstances beyond our control. As described below under “Currency Conversion,” if CAD are unavailable to us due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond our control, then all payments in respect of the notes will be made in U.S. dollars until CAD are again available to us.

We have no control over a number of factors affecting the notes offered hereby and foreign exchange rates, including economic, financial and political events and the supply of and demand for CAD that are important in determining the existence, magnitude and longevity of these risks and their effects. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates between two currencies result from the interaction over time of many factors directly or indirectly affecting economic and political conditions in the countries issuing such currencies, and economic and political developments globally and in other relevant countries. Foreign currency exchange rates may be affected by, among other factors, existing and expected rates of inflation, existing and expected interest rate levels, the balance of payments between countries, the perceived stability of political conditions in various countries and the extent of governmental surpluses or deficits in various countries. All of these factors are, in turn, sensitive to the monetary, fiscal and trade policies pursued by the governments of various countries important to international trade and finance.

Rates of exchange between CAD and other currencies have been volatile and similar or greater volatility may occur in the future. However, the exchange rates of an investor’s home currency for CAD and the fluctuations in those exchange rates that have occurred in the past are not necessarily indicative of the exchange rates or the fluctuations therein that may occur in the future. Depreciation of CAD against the investor’s home currency would result in a decrease in the investor’s home currency equivalent yield on a note, in the investor’s home currency equivalent of the principal payable at the maturity of that note, the price payable upon any redemption of notes and any Additional Amounts payable in respect of the notes, and generally in the investor’s home currency equivalent market value of that note. Appreciation of CAD in relation to the investor’s home currency would have the opposite effects.

Canada may, in the future, impose exchange controls and/or modify any exchange controls imposed, which controls could affect exchange rates, as well as the availability of CAD at the time of payment of principal of, interest on, or any redemption payment or Additional Amounts with respect to, the notes.

This description of foreign exchange risks does not describe all the risks of an investment in securities, including, in particular, the notes, that are denominated or payable in a currency other than an investor’s home currency. You should consult your own financial, tax and legal advisors as to the risks involved in an investment in the notes.

The notes permit us to make payments in U.S. dollars if we are unable to obtain CAD.

If CAD are unavailable to us due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond our control, then all payments in respect of the notes will be made in U.S. dollars until CAD are again available to us. In those circumstances, the amount payable on any date in CAD will be converted into U.S. dollars on the basis of the then most recently available market exchange rate for CAD, as determined by us in our sole discretion. Any payment in respect of the notes so made in U.S. dollars will not constitute an event of default (as defined in the accompanying prospectus under the caption “Description of Debt Securities of The Walt Disney Company—Events of Default”) under the notes or the indenture governing the notes. There can be no assurance that this exchange rate will be as favorable to holders of notes as the exchange rate that might otherwise be determined by applicable law or the exchange rate that might have been used had that rate been determined as of a specific date or with reference to a specific publication or other source of exchange rate data. These potential developments, or market perceptions concerning these and related issues, could adversely affect the value of the notes.

S-8

Judgments in a foreign currency could result in a substantial loss to you.

The indenture, including the guarantee, and the notes will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. Courts in the United States customarily have not rendered judgments for money damages denominated in any currency other than U.S. dollars. It is not clear, however, whether in granting any judgment, the rate of conversion into U.S. dollars would be determined with reference to the date of default, the date judgment is rendered, the date when the obligation is actually paid (as several states of the United States have adopted the Uniform Foreign Money Claims Act, which endorses the “payment date” rule) or some other date.

Under the New York judiciary law, an action based upon an obligation denominated in CAD will be rendered in CAD. Any judgment awarded in such an action will be converted into U.S. dollars at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of the entry of the judgment or decree. The exchange rate on the date of judgment could be more or less favorable than the exchange rate on the date the judgment is paid. There will be no provision for any further payments if exchange rates continue to change after the judgment is rendered.

There may not be any trading market for your notes; many factors affect the trading and market value of your notes.

The notes are a new issue of securities and, upon issuance, your notes will not have an established trading market. We do not intend to apply for listing or quotation of the notes on any securities exchange or on any automated quotation system. We cannot assure you a trading market for your notes will ever develop or be maintained if developed. Furthermore, we cannot assure you as to the liquidity of any trading market that may develop for any of the notes, whether you will be able to sell the notes, or the prices at which you may be able to sell the notes. In addition to our creditworthiness, many factors will affect the trading market for, and trading value of, your notes. These factors include the risk factors described and referred to elsewhere in this “Risk Factors” section and the following:

• the interest rate on the notes;

• the time remaining to the maturity of the notes;

• the outstanding amount of the notes;

• the redemption features of the notes;

• fluctuations in exchange rates between your currency and CAD;

• the level, direction and volatility of market interest rates generally;

• market perceptions of the level, direction and volatility of interest rates generally; and

• the trading value of comparable securities.

There may be a limited number of buyers when you decide to sell your notes. This may affect the price you receive for your notes or your ability to sell your notes at all. You should not purchase the notes unless you understand and know you can bear all of the investment risks involving your notes.

The Walt Disney Company is a holding company, and the notes will be structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries, other than the Guarantor. The guarantee will be structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of the Guarantor’s subsidiaries.

The notes are our obligations exclusively and not of any of our subsidiaries. The guarantee is the Guarantor’s obligation exclusively and not any of its subsidiaries. Operations are conducted almost entirely through our subsidiaries. Our and the Guarantor’s subsidiaries are separate legal entities that have no obligation to pay any amounts due under the notes or the guarantee or to make any funds available therefor, whether by dividends,

S-9

loans or other payments. Except to the extent we or the Guarantor are a creditor with recognized claims against our or the Guarantor’s subsidiaries, all claims of creditors (including trade creditors) of our or the Guarantor’s subsidiaries will have priority with respect to the assets of such subsidiaries over our or the Guarantor’s claims (and therefore the claims of our and the Guarantor’s creditors, including holders of the notes). Consequently, the notes will be structurally subordinated to all indebtedness or other liabilities of our subsidiaries other than the Guarantor, including any subsidiaries that we may in the future acquire or establish, and the guarantee will be structurally subordinated to all indebtedness or other liabilities of the Guarantor’s subsidiaries, including any subsidiaries that the Guarantor may in the future acquire or establish.

Redemption prior to maturity may adversely affect your return on the notes.

Since the notes are redeemable at our option, we may choose to redeem your notes at times when prevailing interest rates are relatively low. As a result, you generally will not be able to reinvest the redemption proceeds in a comparable security at an effective interest rate as high as the interest rate on your notes being redeemed.

Our and the Guarantor’s credit ratings may not reflect all risks of an investment in the notes and a downgrade in our and/or the Guarantor’s credit ratings could adversely affect the market value of the notes.

The credit ratings that may be assigned to our outstanding debt securities and to the notes do not purport to reflect the potential impact of all risks relating to an investment in those securities. Such ratings are limited in scope and reflect only the view of each rating agency at the time the rating was issued. These ratings are subject to ongoing evaluation by credit rating agencies and there can be no assurance that such credit ratings will not be lowered, suspended or withdrawn entirely by the rating agencies or placed on a so-called “watch list” for a possible downgrade or assigned a negative ratings outlook if, in any rating agency’s judgment, circumstances so warrant. Moreover, these credit ratings are not recommendations to buy, sell or hold any of our debt securities or the notes. Actual or anticipated changes or downgrades in our or the Guarantor’s credit ratings may adversely affect any trading market for, and the market value of, the notes, and also increase our borrowing costs.

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

In general, as market interest rates rise, debt securities bearing interest at fixed rates of interest decline in value. Consequently, if you purchase notes and market interest rates increase, the market value of those notes may decline. We cannot predict the future level of market interest rates.

S-10

USE OF PROCEEDS

We estimate that the net proceeds to us from the sale of the notes in this offering will be approximately C$1,295,190,000 after deducting the underwriting discount but before deducting estimated offering expenses payable by us. We intend to use the net proceeds of this offering for general corporate purposes, including the repayment of indebtedness (including commercial paper).

S-11

CURRENCY CONVERSION

All payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the notes, including payments made upon any redemption, and any Additional Amounts that may be payable with respect to the notes, will be payable in CAD, provided that, if CAD are unavailable to us due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond our control, then all payments in respect of the notes will be made in U.S. dollars until CAD are again available to us. In such circumstances, the amount payable on any date in CAD will be converted into U.S. dollars on the basis of the then most recently available market exchange rate for CAD, as determined by us in our sole discretion. Any payment in respect of the notes so made in U.S. dollars will not constitute an event of default under the notes or the indenture governing the notes. See “Risk Factors—The notes permit us to make payments in U.S. dollars if we are unable to obtain CAD.”

Investors will be subject to foreign exchange risks as to payments on the notes that may have important economic and tax consequences to them. See “Risk Factors.”

As of March 25, 2020, the CAD/U.S. dollar exchange rate was C$1.4302 = U.S.$1.00, as published by the Bank of Canada.

S-12

DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

The 3.057% notes due 2027 (the “notes”) being offered hereby will be a series of senior debt securities (as defined in the accompanying prospectus under “Description of Debt Securities of The Walt Disney Company”) and issued under the indenture dated as of March 20, 2019 (the “indenture”) between The Walt Disney Company, as issuer, TWDC Enterprises, as guarantor, and Citibank, N.A., as trustee (referred to herein as the “trustee”). The following description of certain provisions of the notes and the indenture is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the indenture and the form of the notes. The terms of the notes include those stated in the indenture and those made part of the indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. You should review the indenture and the form of the notes, copies of which have been or will be filed or incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the registration statement of which the accompanying prospectus is a part and which may be obtained as described under “Where You Can Find More Information.” Capitalized terms used but not defined in this “Description of the Notes” section or in the accompanying prospectus under the caption “Description of Debt Securities of The Walt Disney Company” have the meanings given to them in the indenture. The following description supplements and, to the extent inconsistent, supersedes, the discussion of certain terms and provisions of the notes and the indenture set forth under “Description of Debt Securities of The Walt Disney Company” in the accompanying prospectus.

As used under this caption “Description of the Notes,” references to the “principal” or “redemption price” of any note shall be deemed to include a reference to the premium, if any, payable on such note, and references to the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, or redemption price of, any note shall be deemed to include a reference to any Additional Amounts that may be payable in respect of such principal, premium, interest or price, as the case may be, in each of the foregoing cases unless otherwise expressly stated or the context otherwise requires.

General

The notes will constitute a separate series of our senior debt securities under the indenture, initially limited to C$1,300,000,000 aggregate principal amount, subject to our right from time to time, without the consent of the holders of the notes, to issue additional notes of such series as described below under “—Further Issues.” There is no limit under the indenture on the aggregate principal amount of notes that we may issue.

The notes will be issued in fully-registered, book-entry form in minimum denominations of C$2,000 and integral multiples of C$1,000 in excess thereof. The notes will be held in global form by CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. (“CDS”), as depositary, and will be registered in the name of CDS & Co., as nominee of CDS. See “—Book Entry System” below.

Maturity

The notes will mature on March 30, 2027.

Interest

The notes will bear interest at the rate of 3.057% per annum, accruing from March 30, 2020.

We will pay interest on the notes semi-annually in arrears in equal installments on March 30 and September 30 of each year, commencing on September 30, 2020, to the record holders at the close of business on the preceding March 16 and September 16 (whether or not such record date is a business day), respectively.

For a full semi-annual interest period, interest on the notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. For an interest period that is not a full semi-annual interest period, interest on the notes will be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days in such interest period.

S-13

Solely for the purposes of disclosure under the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest to which the rate used in such computation is equivalent during any particular period is the rate so used (y) multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the period for which such interest or fee is payable (or compounded) ends, and (z) divided by the number of days based on which such rate is calculated.

If any interest payment date, any redemption date, the maturity date or any other date on which a payment on the notes is due is not a business day (as defined below), the payment due on such interest payment date, redemption date, maturity date or other date, as applicable, will be made on the next succeeding business day with the same force and effect as if made on such interest payment date, redemption date, maturity date or other date, as applicable, and no additional interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such interest payment date, redemption date, maturity date or other date, as the case may be, to such next succeeding business day.

Issuance in CAD; Payment on the Notes

Initial holders will be required to pay for the notes in CAD, and all payments of principal of, premium (if any), and interest and Additional Amounts (as defined below, if any) on, the notes will be payable in CAD, provided, that if on or after the date of this prospectus supplement CAD are unavailable to us due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond our control, then all payments in respect of the notes will be made in U.S. dollars until CAD are again available to us. In such circumstances, the amount payable on any date in CAD will be converted into U.S. dollars on the basis of the then most recently available market exchange rate for CAD, as determined by us in our sole discretion. Any payment in respect of the notes so made in U.S. dollars will not constitute an event of default (as defined in the accompanying prospectus under “Description of Debt Securities of The Walt Disney Company—Events of Default”) under the notes or the indenture governing the notes. Neither the trustee nor the paying agent shall have any responsibility for any calculation or conversion in connection with the foregoing. See “Risk Factors—The Notes Permit Us to Make Payments in U.S. Dollars If We are Unable to Obtain CAD.” All determinations referred to above in this paragraph made by the Company shall be at the Company’s sole discretion and, in the absence of manifest error, shall be conclusive for all purposes and binding on holders of the notes.

Investors will be subject to foreign exchange risks as to payments on the notes that may have important economic and tax consequences to them. See “Risk Factors” in this prospectus supplement.

The TWDC Enterprises Guarantee

The Guarantor will fully and unconditionally guarantee, on a senior unsecured basis, the full and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any, interest on, and all other amounts payable under the notes when the same becomes due and payable, whether at maturity or upon redemption, repayment at the option of the holders of the notes, upon acceleration or otherwise. If for any reason we do not make any required payment in respect of the notes when due, the Guarantor will on demand pay the unpaid amount at the same place and in the same manner that applies to payments made by us under the indenture. The guarantee is of payment, performance and compliance and not of collection.

The Guarantor will automatically and unconditionally be released and discharged from all obligations under the guarantee under certain circumstances specified under the caption “Description of Debt Securities of The Walt Disney Company—The TWDC Enterprises Guarantee” in the accompanying prospectus.

Consequences of Holding Company Status

Operations are conducted almost entirely through our subsidiaries. Accordingly, our cash flow and our ability to service our debt, including the notes, are dependent upon the earnings of our subsidiaries and the distribution of those earnings to us, whether by dividends, loans or otherwise. The payment of dividends and the making of

S-14

loans and advances to us by our subsidiaries may be subject to statutory or contractual restrictions, are contingent upon the earnings of our subsidiaries and are subject to various business considerations. Our right to receive assets of any of our subsidiaries upon their liquidation or reorganization (and the consequent right of the holders of the notes to participate in those assets) will be effectively subordinated to the claims of that subsidiary’s creditors (including trade creditors), except to the extent that we are recognized as a creditor of that subsidiary, in which case our claims would still be effectively subordinated to any security interests in the assets of the subsidiary and would still be contractually subordinated to any indebtedness of the subsidiary senior to that held by us.

Holders of the notes have a direct claim only against us and the Guarantor. See “Risk Factors—The Walt Disney Company is a holding company, and the notes will be structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries, other than the Guarantor. The guarantee will be structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of the Guarantor’s subsidiaries.”

Further Issues

We may, from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the registered holders of notes, issue additional notes ranking pari passu with, and with the same terms and provisions as, the notes offered hereby (except for the date of original issuance, and, if applicable, the date from which interest will accrue, the first interest payment date and the offering and sale prices thereof) (“Additional Notes”). Any such Additional Notes, together with the notes offered hereby, will constitute a single series of our senior debt securities under the indenture.

Ranking

The notes will be our senior unsecured indebtedness and will rank pari passu with each other and with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness from time to time outstanding. However, the notes will be structurally subordinated to any indebtedness and preferred stock, if any, of our subsidiaries (other than the Guarantor) and will be effectively subordinated to any secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. Claims of the creditors and preferred stockholders of our subsidiaries other than the Guarantor will generally have priority with respect to the assets and earnings of such subsidiaries over the claims of our creditors, including holders of the notes. Accordingly, the notes will be structurally subordinated to creditors, including trade creditors and preferred stockholders, if any, of our subsidiaries other than the Guarantor.

The Guarantor will fully and unconditionally guarantee, on a senior unsecured basis, the full and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any, interest on, and all other amounts payable under the notes when the same becomes due and payable.

The guarantee will be the Guarantor’s senior unsecured obligation and will rank pari passu with all of its other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness from time to time outstanding. However, the guarantee will be structurally subordinated to any indebtedness and preferred stock, if any, of the Guarantor’s subsidiaries and will be effectively subordinated to any secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness.

The indenture does not restrict the ability of our or the Guarantor’s subsidiaries to incur indebtedness. See “Risk Factors—The Walt Disney Company is a holding company, and the notes will be structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries, other than the Guarantor. The guarantee will be structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of the Guarantor’s subsidiaries.”

S-15

The Trustee, Paying Agent, Transfer Agent and Security Registrar

Citibank, N.A. will be the trustee with respect to the notes and maintains various commercial and investment banking relationships with us and with affiliates of ours. BNY Trust Company of Canada will initially act as paying agent, transfer agent, authenticating agent and security registrar for the notes, acting through its corporate trust office currently located at 1 York Street, 6th Floor, Toronto, Ontario M5J 0B6, Canada. BNY Trust Company of Canada and its affiliates maintain various commercial and investing banking relationships with us and with affiliates of ours.

Business Day

A “business day” means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in Toronto, Ontario, Canada or New York, New York, United States of America.

Mergers and Sales of Assets

The Walt Disney Company

The indenture provides that we may not consolidate with or merge with or into any other person or convey, transfer or lease our properties and assets substantially as an entirety to another person, unless, among other things, (i) we are the continuing corporation, or the resulting, surviving or transferee person (if other than us) is organized and existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia and that person expressly assumes all of our obligations under the applicable debt securities and the indenture, (ii) immediately after giving effect to the transaction, no event which is, or after notice or passage of time or both would be, an event of default under the indenture (any such event, a “default”) shall have occurred and be continuing under the indenture and (iii) we deliver to the trustee an officer’s certificate and an opinion of counsel to the effect that the consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease, as the case may be, complies with the indenture and that all conditions precedent provided in the indenture with respect to the transaction have been satisfied. Any such successor person formed by any such consolidation or into which we are merged or to which any such conveyance, transfer or lease is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, us under the indenture and we will be discharged from all obligations under the indenture and the debt securities issued thereunder, except in the case of a lease of our properties and assets substantially as an entirety.

Guarantor

Subject to the guarantee release provisions therein, the indenture provides that the Guarantor may not consolidate with or merge with or into any other person or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to another person, unless, among other things, (i) it is the continuing person, it is merged or consolidated into us or the resulting, surviving or transferee person (if other than us or the Guarantor) is organized and existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia and that person expressly assumes all of the Guarantor’s obligations under the applicable debt securities and the indenture and (ii) we deliver to the trustee an officer’s certificate and an opinion of counsel to the effect that the consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease, as the case may be, complies with the indenture and that all conditions precedent provided in the indenture with respect to the transaction have been satisfied. Any such successor person formed by any such consolidation or into which the Guarantor is merged or to which any such conveyance, transfer or lease is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, the Guarantor under the indenture and the Guarantor will be discharged from all obligations under the indenture and the debt securities issued thereunder, except in the case of a lease of its properties and assets substantially as an entirety.

S-16

Optional Redemption

The notes may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at our option, at any time or from time to time prior to their maturity date, at a redemption price equal to the greater of the following amounts:

(1) 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed; or

(2) the Canada Yield Price,

plus, in the case of both clauses (1) and (2) above, any accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the notes being redeemed to such redemption date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on the notes that are due and payable on an interest payment date falling on or prior to a redemption date shall be payable to the registered holders of such notes (or one or more predecessor notes) of record at the close of business on the relevant regular record date, except as otherwise provided by depositary procedures, all as provided in the indenture. Unless we default in the payment of the redemption price, interest on a note or portion thereof called for redemption will cease to accrue on the redemption date.

“Canada Yield Price” means, in respect of any notes being redeemed, the price, in respect of the principal amount of the notes, calculated by us as of the third business day prior to the redemption date of such notes, equal to the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of interest (not including any portion of the payments of interest accrued as of the date of redemption) and principal on the notes to be redeemed from the redemption date to the maturity date using as a discount rate the sum of the Government of Canada Yield on such business day plus 57.5 basis points.

“Government of Canada Yield” means, on any date, the bid-side yield to maturity on such date as determined by the arithmetic average (rounded to three decimal places) of the yields quoted at 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time) by any two investment dealers in Canada selected by us, assuming semi-annual compounding and calculated in accordance with generally accepted financial practice, which a non-callable Government of Canada bond would carry if issued in Canadian dollars in Canada at 100% of its principal amount on such date with a term to maturity that most closely approximates the remaining term to the maturity date.

Notice of any redemption of notes will be mailed at least 15 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of record of the notes to be redeemed at its registered address. The notice of redemption for the notes will state, among other things, the principal amount of notes to be redeemed, the redemption date, the redemption price or the manner in which the redemption price will be calculated and the place or places that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of notes to be redeemed. Any redemption or notice may, at our discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent and, at our discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions precedent included at our discretion shall be satisfied (or waived by us) or the redemption date may not occur and such notice may be rescinded if all such conditions precedent included at our discretion shall not have been satisfied (or waived by us).

If less than all of the notes are to be redeemed, the notes to be redeemed will be selected according to CDS procedures, in the case of notes represented by a global note, or by the trustee by such method as the trustee considers fair and appropriate, in the case of notes, if any, that are not represented by a global note. If any note is to be redeemed in part, such note must be redeemed in a minimum principal amount of C$2,000 and integral multiples of C$1,000 in principal amount in excess thereof; provided that the unredeemed portion of any note must be an authorized denomination. Payment of the redemption price, together with accrued interest (if any) to but excluding the redemption date for a note for which a redemption notice has been delivered is conditioned upon delivery of such note to an office or agency of us maintained for that purpose. Payment of the redemption price for a note (or portion thereof to be redeemed), together with accrued interest to the redemption date, will be made on the later of the redemption date or promptly following the time of delivery of such note. See “—The Trustee, Paying Agent, Transfer Agent and Security Registrar.”

S-17

The notes are also subject to redemption at our option, in whole but not in part, if certain changes in U.S. tax law occur. If such changes occur, the notes may be redeemed at a redemption price of 100% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption, and the provisions described in the immediately preceding paragraph will apply to any such redemption. See “—Redemption for Tax Reasons.”

Payment of Additional Amounts

All payments of principal and interest with respect to the notes and the guarantee will be made without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature (“Taxes”) imposed by the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, unless such withholding or deduction is required by (i) the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein or (ii) an official position regarding the application, administration, interpretation or enforcement of any such laws, regulations or rulings (including, without limitation, a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction or by a taxing authority in the United States or any political subdivision thereof). If a withholding or deduction is required, we or the Guarantor will, subject to certain exceptions and limitations set forth below, pay to the holder of any note that is beneficially owned by a United States Alien (as defined below), as additional interest, such amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that every net payment on such note (including payment of the principal of and interest on such note) by us or a paying agent, after deduction or withholding for or on account of any Tax imposed upon or as a result of such payment by the United States (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein), will not be less than the amount provided in such note to be then due and payable; provided, however, that the foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts will not apply to:

a. any Tax that would not have been so imposed but for:

• the existence of any present or former connection between such holder or beneficial owner of such note (or between a fiduciary, settlor or beneficiary of, or a person holding a power over, such holder, if such holder is an estate or a trust, or a member or shareholder of such holder, if such holder is a partnership or corporation) and the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, including, without limitation, such holder or beneficial owner (or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, person holding a power, member or shareholder) being or having been a citizen or resident of the United States or treated as a resident thereof or being or having been engaged in a trade or business or present therein or having or having had a permanent establishment therein; or

• such holder’s or beneficial owner’s past or present status, as applicable (under prior or current law), as a personal holding company, foreign personal holding company, foreign private foundation or other foreign tax-exempt organization with respect to the United States, passive foreign investment company or controlled foreign corporation for United States tax purposes or corporation that accumulates earnings to avoid United States Federal income tax;

b. any estate, inheritance, gift, excise, sales, transfer, wealth, capital gains or personal property Tax or any similar Tax;

c. any Tax that would not have been imposed but for the presentation by the holder of a note for payment more than 30 days after the date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof was duly provided for, whichever occurred later;

d. any Tax that is payable otherwise than by withholding or deduction from a payment on a note;

S-18

e. any Tax required to be withheld by any paying agent from a payment on a note, if such payment could be made without such withholding by any other paying agent;

f. any Tax that would not have been imposed but for a failure to comply with applicable certification, information, documentation, identification or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the United States of the holder or beneficial owner of a note if such compliance is required by statute or regulation of the United States or by an applicable tax treaty to which the United States is a party as a precondition to relief or exemption from such Tax (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any backup withholding Tax imposed pursuant to Section 3406 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (or any amended or successor provision));

g. any Tax imposed on a holder or beneficial owner that actually or constructively owns 10 percent or more of the combined voting power of all classes of our stock or that is a bank receiving interest on an extension of credit made pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of its trade or business; or

h. any combination of items (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) and (g);

nor shall Additional Amounts be paid with respect to a payment on a note to a holder or beneficial owner that is a fiduciary or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership or a beneficial owner would not have been entitled to Additional Amounts (or payment of Additional Amounts would not have been necessary) had such beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the holder of such note.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding paragraph, we, the trustee and any person making payments on behalf of us shall be entitled to deduct and withhold as required, and shall not be required to pay any Additional Amounts with respect to any such withholding or deduction imposed on or in respect of any note, pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (commonly referred to as “FATCA”) (or any amended or successor provisions), any treaty, law, regulation or other official guidance enacted by any jurisdiction implementing FATCA, any agreement between us or any other person and the United States or any jurisdiction implementing FATCA, or any law implementing an intergovernmental approach to FATCA.

A “United States Alien” means any person that, for United States federal income tax purposes, is a foreign corporation, a non-resident alien individual, a non-resident alien fiduciary of a foreign estate or trust, or a foreign partnership one or more of the members of which is, for United States federal income tax purposes, a foreign corporation, a non-resident alien individual or a non-resident alien fiduciary of a foreign estate or trust. As used under this caption “—Payment of Additional Amounts” and under the caption “—Redemption for Tax Reasons” below, the term “United States” means the United States of America (including the States and the District of Columbia) and its territories, its possessions and other areas subject to its jurisdiction.

S-19

Redemption for Tax Reasons

If (a) as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of the United States (including of any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein), or any change in the official application (including a ruling by a court of competent jurisdiction in the United States) or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, which change or amendment is announced or becomes effective on or after the date of this prospectus supplement, we become or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts on the notes or (b) any act is taken by a taxing authority of the United States (including of any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) on or after the date of this prospectus supplement, whether or not such act is taken with respect to us or any affiliate of ours, that results in a substantial likelihood that we will or may be required to pay Additional Amounts on the notes, then, we may, at our option, redeem the notes, as a whole but not in part, on not less than 15 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, together with interest, accrued thereon (and Additional Amounts, if any) to the date fixed for redemption; provided that we determine, in our business judgment, that the obligation to pay such Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by the use of reasonable measures available to us, not including substitution of the obligor under the notes or any action that would entail a material cost to us. No redemption will be made unless (i) we shall have received an opinion of independent counsel to the effect that the circumstances described in either of the above clauses (a) or (b) exist and (ii) we shall have delivered to the trustee a certificate, signed by a duly authorized officer, stating that based on such opinion we are entitled to redeem the notes pursuant to their terms. If we redeem the notes under the circumstances described in this paragraph, then, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary set forth above in this paragraph, installments of interest on the notes that are due and payable on any interest payment date falling on or prior to the redemption date for the notes will be payable to the registered holders of the notes (or one or more predecessor notes) of record at the close of business on the relevant record date, all as provided in the indenture. Unless we default in the payment of the redemption price, interest on a note called for redemption will cease to accrue on the redemption date.

Open Market Purchases

We or our affiliates may acquire the notes by means other than a redemption, whether by tender offer, open market purchases, negotiated transactions or otherwise, in accordance with applicable securities laws.

Notices

The trustee will send notices electronically or mail notices by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each registered holder’s address as it appears in the registration books of the registrar and, to the extent applicable, transmit such notices in accordance with applicable procedures of CDS. The trustee will only mail or transmit these notices to the registered holder of the notes, and consequently holders of beneficial interests in global notes will not receive these notices unless we reissue the notes in fully certificated form.

Book-Entry System

We have obtained the information in this section concerning CDS and its book-entry systems and procedures from sources that we believe to be reliable. We take no responsibility for an accurate portrayal of this information. In addition, the description of the clearing systems in this section reflects our understanding of the rules and procedures of CDS as they are currently in effect. Those systems could change their rules and procedures at any time.

The notes will be issued as fully-registered, book-entry global securities (which we sometimes refer to as “global securities” or “global notes”) which will be deposited with, or on behalf of, CDS and registered, at the request of CDS, in the name of CDS & Co. The notes will settle in immediately available funds through CDS. You may hold interests in a global security through organizations that participate, directly or indirectly, in the CDS system.

S-20

For as long as the notes are maintained in book-entry form at CDS, CDS or its nominee will be the registered holder of the notes for all purposes and all payments on the notes will be made to CDS and payments to beneficial owners of notes will be made in accordance with CDS’ procedures and the procedures of its participants. Consequently, you will need to look to CDS and its participants through which you own your interest in the notes for any payment or to exercise any rights in respect of the notes. We have no responsibility for the actions of CDS or its participants, and your ability to receive payments or exercise any rights in respect of the notes will be subject to their procedures.

CDS is Canada’s national securities depository, clearing and settlement hub, supporting Canada’s equity, fixed income and money markets. Functioning as a service utility for the Canadian financial community, CDS provides a wide variety of computer automated services for financial institutions and investment dealers active in domestic and international capital markets. CDS participants include banks, investment dealers and trust companies and may include certain of the underwriters. Indirect access to CDS is available to other organizations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a CDS participant. Transfers of ownership and other interests in notes in CDS, including cash distributions, may only be processed through CDS participants and will be completed in accordance with existing CDS rules and procedures. CDS is headquartered in Toronto and has offices in Montreal, Vancouver and Calgary. CDS is a subsidiary of The Canadian Depository for Securities Limited, part of TMX Group Limited. It is affiliated with CDS Inc., which provides services to the Canadian Securities Administrators, and CDS Innovations Inc., a commercial marketer of CDS information products such as CDS Bulletins and entitlements information.

You may elect to hold interests in the notes outside Canada through Clearstream Banking, société anonyme, Luxembourg, or “Clearstream,” and Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., as operator of the Euroclear System, or “Euroclear,” if you are a participant in those systems, or indirectly through organizations that are participants in those systems. Clearstream and Euroclear will hold interests on behalf of their participants through securities accounts in Clearstream’s and Euroclear’s names on the books of their respective sub-custodians. The interests are ultimately held through a CDS participant that acts as sub-custodian for Euroclear or Clearstream, as applicable.

Cross market transfers between persons holding directly or indirectly through CDS participants, on the one hand, and directly or indirectly through Clearstream participants or Euroclear participants, on the other, will be effected in CDS in accordance with CDS rules; however, such cross market transactions will require delivery of instructions to the relevant clearing system by the counterparty in such system in accordance with its rules and procedures and within its established deadlines. The relevant clearing system will, if the transaction meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions to CDS directly or through its Canadian sub-custodian to take action to effect final settlement on its behalf by delivering or receiving notes in CDS, and making or receiving payment in accordance with normal procedures for settlement in CDS. Clearstream participants and Euroclear participants may not deliver instructions directly to CDS or the Canadian sub-custodians.

Because of time zone differences, credits of notes received in Clearstream or Euroclear as a result of a transaction with a CDS participant may be made during subsequent securities settlement processing and dated the business day following the CDS settlement date. Such credits or any transactions in such notes settled during such processing will be reported to the relevant Clearstream participants or Euroclear participants on such business day. Cash received in Clearstream or Euroclear as a result of sales of notes by or through a Clearstream participant or a Euroclear participant to a CDS participant will be received with value on the CDS settlement date but will be available in the relevant Clearstream or Euroclear cash account only as of the business day following settlement in CDS.

Although CDS, Clearstream and Euroclear have agreed to the foregoing procedures in order to facilitate transfers of notes among participants of CDS, Clearstream and Euroclear, they are under no obligation to perform or continue to perform such procedures and such procedures may be modified or discontinued at any time. We will not have any responsibility for the performance by CDS, Euroclear or Clearstream or their respective direct or indirect participants of their obligations under the rules and procedures governing their operations.

S-21

Form, Denomination and Book-Entry

The notes, subject to certain exceptions, will be represented by one or more fully-registered global securities held by, or on behalf of, CDS, as custodian of the global securities (for its participants) and registered in the name of CDS & Co., and registrations of interests in and transfers of the notes will be made only through the book-entry only system of CDS. Except as described below, owners of beneficial interests in notes will not be entitled to a certificate or other instrument from us or CDS evidencing the purchaser’s ownership thereof, owners of beneficial interests in notes held through CDS and its participants will not be considered the “holders” of those notes under the indenture and no such beneficial owner of notes will be shown on the records maintained by CDS, although we expect that such beneficial interests will be reflected through book-entry accounts of CDS’ direct and indirect participants acting on behalf of such beneficial owners. Each purchaser of notes represented by a global security is expected to receive a customer confirmation of purchase from the underwriter or other registered dealer from which the notes are purchased in accordance with the practices and procedures of the selling underwriter or dealer. The practices of the underwriters may vary but, generally, customer confirmations are issued promptly after execution of a customer order. CDS will be responsible for establishing and maintaining book-entry accounts for its direct participants having interests in global securities, and CDS’ direct and indirect participants will be responsible for maintaining book-entry accounts for beneficial owners holding interests in the global securities. Sales of interests in a global security can only be completed through participants in the book-entry only depositary service of CDS.

Neither we nor the underwriters will assume any liability for: (a) any aspect of the records relating to the beneficial ownership of the notes held by CDS or any of its direct or indirect participants or the payments relating thereto; (b) maintaining, supervising or retaining any records relating to the notes; or (c) any advice or representation made by, or with respect to, CDS or any action to be taken by CDS or at the direction of its participants.

CDS may discontinue providing its services as securities depository with respect to the notes at any time by giving reasonable notice to us. If CDS is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities as depositary with respect to the notes, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to locate a qualified successor. However, definitive notes will be issued in exchange for beneficial interests in global notes, registered in the names of persons other than CDS or its nominee, only if (i) CDS’ book-entry only system ceases to exist, (ii) we determine that CDS is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities as depository with respect to the notes and we are unable to locate a qualified successor, (iii) we, at our option, elect to issue definitive notes in lieu of the book-entry system through CDS with respect to all or a portion of the notes, (iv) required by law or (v) an Event of Default with respect to the notes has occurred and is continuing. In the event that definitive notes are to be issued as aforesaid, we will promptly execute, and the trustee or an authenticating agent, upon receipt of an order from us for the authentication and delivery of definitive notes, will authenticate and deliver definitive notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the global securities in exchange for beneficial interests in such global securities in accordance with the instructions, if any, of CDS.

If we issue definitive notes in exchange for global securities as described in the preceding paragraph, such definitive notes shall be issued in denominations of C$2,000 and integral multiples of C$1,000 in excess thereof and each such definitive note will have the same stated maturity and other terms as the global security for which it is exchanged.

The laws of some states may require that certain purchasers of securities take physical delivery of securities in definitive form. Such limits and such laws may impair the ability to own, transfer or pledge beneficial interests in global securities.

S-22

Transfers of Notes

Transfers of beneficial ownership of notes represented by a global security will be effected only through records maintained by CDS for such global security (with respect to interests of participants) and on the records of its direct and indirect participants (with respect to interests of persons other than participants). Beneficial owners who are not participants in the book-entry only depositary service of CDS, but who desire to purchase, sell or otherwise transfer ownership of or other interests in a global security, may do so only through participants in the book-entry only depositary service of CDS.

The ability of a beneficial owner of an interest in a note represented by a global security to pledge the notes or otherwise take action with respect to such owner’s interest in the notes represented by a global security (other than through a participant) may be limited due to the lack of possession of a certificate representing physical notes.

If definitive notes are issued under the limited circumstances described above, registration of transfers or exchanges of certificated notes may be made by delivery of those certificated notes, duly endorsed or accompanied by instruments of transfer duly endorsed, by the registered holders thereof, at the office of a registrar for the notes.

As described under “Description of Debt Securities of the Walt Disney Company—Form, Exchange, Registration and Transfer” in the accompanying prospectus, the indenture under which the notes will be issued provides that we are not required to register the physical transfer of or exchange of (i) notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before selection of notes to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on the date of mailing of the relevant notice of redemption or (ii) any notes or portion thereof called for redemption, except the unredeemed portion of any note being redeemed in part.

Payment of Interest and Principal

As long as CDS or its nominee is the registered owner of the global securities, CDS or its nominee will be considered the sole owner of the global securities for the purposes of receiving payments of interest and principal on such global securities. Payments of principal and any interest on notes in book-entry form represented by one or more global securities will be made by us in immediately available funds through the paying agent to CDS or its nominee, as the case may be, as the holder of the global security or global securities representing such notes in book-entry form.

We expect that CDS, upon receipt of any payment of principal or interest in respect of a global security, will credit, on the date principal or interest is payable, its participants’ accounts with payments in amounts proportionate to their respective interests in the principal amount of such global security as shown on the records of CDS. We also expect that payments of principal and interest by the participants to the owners of beneficial interests in such global security held through such participants in the depositary service of CDS will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices and will be the responsibility of such participants. Our responsibility and liability in respect of notes represented by a global security is limited to making payment of any principal and interest due on such global security to CDS. The rules governing CDS provide that it acts as the agent and depositary for its participants. As a result, such participants must look solely to CDS and beneficial owners of notes must look solely to participants for the payment of the principal and interest on the notes paid by or on behalf of us to CDS.

If definitive notes are issued under the limited circumstances described above, we will make payments of principal and the redemption price, if any, thereof upon presentation of the definitive notes at the office of a paying agent for the notes. At our option, payments of interest on definitive notes, if issued, due on any interest payment date (other than on the maturity date or any redemption date) may be made by cheque mailed to the addresses of the persons entitled thereto as such addresses shall appear in the register of notes or by wire transfer

S-23

of immediately available funds to the accounts of the holders of such definitive notes if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing by the paying agent not less than 15 days prior to the applicable interest payment date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we will make payments of interest on any interest payment date (other than on the maturity date or any redemption date) to each registered holder of C$10,000,000 or more in aggregate principal amount of definitive notes by wire transfer of immediately available funds if the applicable registered holder has delivered appropriate wire transfer instructions in writing to the paying agent not less than 15 days prior to the applicable interest payment date. Any wire transfer instructions received by the paying agent shall remain in effect until revoked by the applicable registered holder.

Governing Law

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

S-24

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The following is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, disposition and ownership of the notes to the beneficial owners of the notes that purchase the notes in the initial offering at the “issue price” (i.e., the first price at which a substantial amount of the applicable series of notes is sold for money to the public (not including bond houses, brokers or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers)). This summary is based upon the Code, the Treasury Regulations promulgated or proposed thereunder, administrative pronouncements and judicial decisions, all as of the date hereof and all of which are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis. This summary assumes that purchasers will hold the notes as “capital assets” as defined in the Code. This summary does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be important to a particular investor in light of their personal circumstances or that are subject to special rules, such as:

• financial institutions;

• insurance companies;

• regulated investment companies;

• real estate investment trusts;

• tax-exempt organizations;

• broker-dealers;

• certain former citizens or former long-term residents of the United States;

• partnerships or other pass-through entities, hybrid entities and certain trusts;

• persons that hold notes as a position in a “straddle,” “hedge” or “appreciated financial position” for U.S. federal income tax purposes;

• persons subject to the alternative minimum tax;

• U.S. Holders (as defined below) that have a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar; and

• accrual method taxpayers that are required to recognize income with respect to the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes no later than when it is taken into account in financial statements.

This discussion does not address the U.S. federal estate (except as set forth below with respect to Non-U.S. Holders (as defined below)) or gift tax laws or any aspects of foreign, state or local tax laws. Prospective investors are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of acquiring, holding and disposing of the notes in light of their particular situations, as well as any tax consequences that may arise under the laws of any foreign, state, local or other taxing jurisdiction.

For purposes of this summary, the term “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of a note that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

• an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

• a corporation (or any other entity taxable as a corporation) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

• an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

• a trust if (1) its administration is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all of its substantial decisions, or (2) it has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.

As used herein, the term “Non-U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of a note that is not a U.S. Holder and not an entity or arrangement that is classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

S-25

If an entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds notes, the treatment of a partner in the partnership will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. A partnership holding notes and partners in such a partnership should consult their tax advisors about the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of notes.

U.S. Holders

Payments of Interest

It is anticipated, and the remainder of this discussion assumes, that the notes will be issued with less than a de minimis amount (as set forth in the applicable Treasury Regulations) of original issue discount for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, interest paid on a note will be taxable to a U.S. Holder as ordinary interest income at the time it accrues or is received in accordance with the U.S. Holder’s method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes and will be treated as U.S. source income.

A U.S. Holder that uses the cash method of accounting and that receives a payment of interest in CAD (including a payment attributable to accrued but unpaid interest upon the sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition of a note) will be required to include in income the U.S. dollar value of the CAD payment received (determined based on the spot rate on the date the payment is received), regardless of whether the payment is in fact converted to U.S. dollars at that time. A cash basis U.S. Holder will not recognize foreign currency gain or loss on the receipt of interest income, but may recognize foreign currency gain or loss attributable to the actual disposition of the CAD received. Any such foreign currency gain or loss generally will be treated as ordinary income or loss.

A U.S. Holder that uses the accrual method of tax accounting will be required to include in income the U.S. dollar value of the CAD interest income that accrues with respect to a note during an accrual period. The U.S. dollar value of the accrued income will be determined by translating the CAD interest income at the average spot rate of exchange for the accrual period or, with respect to an accrual period that spans two taxable years, at the average spot rate for the partial period within the applicable taxable year. Alternatively, an accrual method U.S. Holder may elect to translate CAD interest income into U.S. dollars at the spot rate on the last day of the accrual period (or the last day of the taxable year in the case of an accrual period that spans two taxable years) or, if the date of receipt is within five business days of the last day of the interest accrual period, the spot rate on the date of receipt. A U.S. Holder that makes this election must apply it consistently to all debt instruments from year to year and cannot change the election without the consent of the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”). A U.S. Holder that uses the accrual method will recognize foreign currency gain or loss with respect to accrued interest income on the date the interest payment (or proceeds from a sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition attributable to accrued but unpaid interest) is actually received. The amount of foreign currency gain or loss recognized will equal the difference, if any, between the U.S. dollar value of the CAD payment received (determined based on the spot rate on the date the payment is received) in respect of the accrual period and the U.S. dollar value of interest income that has accrued during the accrual period (as determined above), regardless of whether the payment is in fact converted to U.S. dollars. This foreign currency gain or loss generally will be treated as ordinary income or loss.

Sale, Exchange, Redemption or other Taxable Disposition of the Notes

A U.S. Holder will generally recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on the sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition of a note (except to the extent the amount realized is attributable to accrued but unpaid interest, which will be taxable as ordinary interest income as described above to the extent not previously included in income) and the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such note. A U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the note generally will be the U.S. dollar value of CAD used to purchase the note at the spot rate on the purchase date. If the notes are traded on an established securities market, a cash basis U.S. Holder (and if it elects, an accrual basis U.S. Holder) will determine the U.S. dollar value of the CAD amount paid for the note on the settlement date of the purchase.

S-26

The amount realized on the sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition of a note for an amount in CAD will generally be the U.S. dollar value of such CAD based on the spot rate on the date the note is disposed of. However, if the notes are traded on an established securities market, a cash basis U.S. Holder (and if it elects, an accrual basis U.S. Holder) will determine the U.S. dollar value of such CAD on the settlement date of the disposition. If an accrual method U.S. Holder makes either of the settlement date elections described above, such election must be applied consistently to all debt instruments from year to year and cannot be changed without the consent of the IRS. If the notes are not traded on an established securities market (or, if the notes are so traded, but a U.S. Holder is an accrual basis U.S. Holder that has not made the settlement date election), a U.S. Holder will recognize foreign currency gain or loss (taxable as ordinary income or loss) to the extent that there are exchange rate fluctuations between the disposition date and the settlement date.

Except as discussed below with respect to foreign currency gain or loss, any gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder on a taxable disposition of the note will generally be capital gain or loss and will be long-term capital gain or loss if at the time of the taxable disposition the note has been held by the U.S. Holder for more than one year. In the case of certain non-corporate U.S. Holders (including individuals), long-term capital gains are generally eligible for reduced rates of U.S. federal income taxation. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations under the Code. Gain or loss realized by you on the sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition of a note generally will be treated as U.S. source gain or loss.

Gain or loss realized upon the sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition of a note that is attributable to fluctuations in currency exchange rates will be ordinary income or loss. Gain or loss attributable to fluctuations in currency exchange rates generally will equal the difference between (i) the U.S. dollar value of a U.S. Holder’s purchase price for the note in CAD, determined on the date the note is disposed of, and (ii) the U.S. dollar value of a U.S. Holder’s purchase price for the note in CAD, determined on the date the U.S. Holder acquired the note. Such foreign currency gain or loss will be recognized only to the extent of the total gain or loss realized by a U.S. Holder on the sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition of the note.

Reportable Transaction Reporting

In certain circumstances, Treasury Regulations require the reporting of a sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition of a note or foreign currency received in respect of such a note on IRS Form 8886 (Reportable Transaction Disclosure Statement) if the U.S. Holder recognizes a loss that equals or exceeds certain threshold amounts (e.g., in the case of a foreign currency loss, $50,000 in the case of an individual or trust). U.S. Holders are advised to consult their tax advisors to determine the reporting obligations, if any, with respect to an investment in the notes, including any requirement to file IRS Form 8886 as part of their U.S. federal income tax returns.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

Information reporting requirements generally will apply to interest on the notes and the proceeds of a sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition of a note paid to a U.S. Holder unless the U.S. Holder is an exempt recipient (such as a corporation). Backup withholding generally will apply to those payments if the U.S. Holder fails to provide its correct taxpayer identification number, or certification of exempt status, or if the U.S. Holder is notified by the IRS that it has failed to report in full payments of interest and dividend income. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a refund or a credit against a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability provided the required information is furnished to the IRS in a timely manner.

Medicare Tax on Net Investment Income

Certain U.S. Holders that are individuals, estates or trusts are subject to an additional 3.8% Medicare tax on “net investment income” (in the case of individuals) or “undistributed net investment income” (in the case of estates

S-27

and trusts), which includes, among other things, interest on and gains from the sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition of the notes. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the 3.8% Medicare tax.

Non-U.S. Holders

Payments of Interest

Subject to the discussion under “—Information Reporting and Backup Withholding” and “—Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA)” below, U.S. federal withholding tax will not be applied to any payment of interest on a note to a Non-U.S. Holder provided that:

(a) interest paid on the note is not effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States;

(b) the Non-U.S. Holder does not actually or constructively own 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of our stock that are entitled to vote within the meaning of section 871(h)(3) of the Code;

(c) the Non-U.S. Holder is not a controlled foreign corporation that is related to us (actually or constructively) through stock ownership; and

(d) either (1) the Non-U.S. Holder provides its name and address, and certifies, under penalties of perjury, that it is not a U.S. person (which certification may be made on the applicable IRS Form W-8), or (2) the Non-U.S. Holder holds the notes through certain foreign intermediaries or certain foreign partnerships, and the Non-U.S. Holder and the foreign intermediary or foreign partnership satisfy the certification requirements of applicable Treasury Regulations.

If a Non-U.S. Holder cannot satisfy the requirements described above, payments of interest made to the holder will be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate of 30%, unless the Non-U.S. Holder provides the applicable withholding agent with a properly executed (1) IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, claiming an exemption from or reduction in withholding under the benefit of an applicable income tax treaty or (2) IRS Form W-8ECI (or other applicable form) stating that interest paid on the notes is not subject to U.S. federal withholding tax because it is effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States and is includible in the Non-U.S. Holder’s gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

If a Non-U.S. Holder is engaged in a trade or business in the United States and interest on the notes is effectively connected with the conduct of that trade or business and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a U.S. permanent establishment, then, although the Non-U.S. Holder will be exempt from the 30% withholding tax provided the certification requirements discussed above are satisfied, the Non-U.S. Holder will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on that interest on a net income basis in the same manner as if the Non-U.S. Holder were a U.S. Holder. In addition, if a Non-U.S. Holder is a foreign corporation, it may be subject to a branch profits tax equal to 30% (or lesser rate as may be specified under an applicable income tax treaty) of its effectively connected earnings and profits, subject to adjustments.

Sale, Exchange, Redemption or other Taxable Disposition of the Notes

Subject to the discussions under “—Information Reporting and Backup Withholding” below, gain recognized by a Non-U.S. Holder on the sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition of a note (excluding any amount allocable to accrued and unpaid interest, which generally will be taxable as described above under “—Payments of Interest”) will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax unless:

• that gain is effectively connected with a Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States (and, if required by an applicable income treaty, is attributable to a U.S. permanent establishment); or

S-28

• the Non-U.S. Holder is an individual who is present in the United States for a period aggregating 183 days or more in the taxable year of that disposition and certain other conditions are met.

If a Non-U.S. Holder is an individual or foreign corporation described in the first bullet point above, it will be subject to tax on the net gain derived from the sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition under regular graduated U.S. federal income tax rates and in the same manner as if the Non-U.S. Holder were a U.S. Holder. In addition, if a Non-U.S. Holder is a foreign corporation that falls under the first bullet point above, it may be subject to the branch profits tax equal to 30% (or lesser rate as may be specified under an applicable income tax treaty) of its effectively connected earnings and profits, subject to adjustments.

If a Non-U.S. Holder is an individual described in the second bullet point above, such Non-U.S. Holder will be subject to a flat 30% (or lesser rate as may be specified under an applicable income tax treaty) tax on the gain derived from the sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition, which may be offset by U.S.-source capital losses, even though such Non-U.S. Holder is not considered a resident of the United States.

U.S. Federal Estate Tax

Notes held at the time of death by an individual who is not a U.S. citizen or resident (as specially defined for U.S. federal estate tax purposes) will not be included in such Non-U.S. Holder’s gross estate for U.S. federal estate tax purposes; provided that (1) the individual does not actually (or constructively) own 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of our voting stock within the meaning of the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations, and (2) interest on those notes would not have been, if received at the time of the individual’s death, effectively connected with the conduct by such individual of a trade or business in the United States.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Generally, the amount of interest paid to Non-U.S. Holders and the amount of tax, if any, withheld with respect to those payments must be reported annually to the IRS and to Non-U.S. Holders. Copies of the information returns reporting such interest and withholding may also be made available to the tax authorities in the country in which a Non-U.S. Holder resides under the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty.

In general, a Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to backup withholding with respect to payments of interest that we make, provided the applicable statement described above in the last bullet point under “—Payments of Interest” has been provided and the applicable withholding agent does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that the holder is a United States person, as defined under the Code, that is not an exempt recipient. In addition, a Non-U.S. Holder will be subject to information reporting and, depending on the circumstances, backup withholding with respect to payments of the proceeds of the sale, exchange, redemption, repurchase by us or other taxable disposition of a note within the United States or conducted through certain U.S.-related financial intermediaries, unless the statement described above has been received, and the payor does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that the holder is a United States person, as defined under the Code, that is not an exempt recipient, or the Non-U.S. Holder otherwise establishes an exemption. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a refund or a credit against a Non-U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability provided the required information is furnished to the IRS in a timely manner.

Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA)

Under FATCA, a 30% U.S. federal withholding tax may apply to interest income paid on the notes to (i) a “foreign financial institution” (as specifically defined in the Code), whether such foreign financial institution is the beneficial owner or an intermediary, unless such foreign financial institution agrees to verify, report and disclose its “United States account” holders (as specifically defined in the Code) and meets certain other specified requirements or (ii) a “non-financial foreign entity” (as specifically defined in the Code), whether such non-financial foreign entity is the beneficial owner or an intermediary, unless such non-financial foreign entity

S-29

provides a certification that the beneficial owner of the payment does not have any substantial U.S. owners or provides the name, address and taxpayer identification number of each substantial U.S. owner and certain other specified requirements are met. In certain cases, the relevant foreign financial institution or non-financial foreign entity may qualify for an exemption from, or be deemed to be in compliance with, these rules. Further, foreign financial institutions located in jurisdictions that have an intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing FATCA may be subject to different rules. If an interest payment is subject both to withholding under FATCA and to the U.S. federal withholding tax discussed above under “—Non-U.S. Holders—Payments of Interest,” the U.S. federal withholding under FATCA may be credited against, and therefore reduce, such other U.S. federal withholding tax. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding these rules and whether they may be relevant to their ownership and disposition of the notes.

S-30

UNDERWRITING

We, the Guarantor and the underwriters named below have entered into an underwriting agreement dated the date of this prospectus supplement with respect to the notes. Subject to certain terms and conditions contained in the underwriting agreement, we have agreed to sell to each underwriter and each underwriter has severally, and not jointly, agreed to purchase the amount of notes indicated in the following table:

Underwriters	Principal Amount of the Notes
Merrill Lynch Canada Inc.	C$	433,334,000
HSBC Securities (Canada) Inc.		433,333,000
RBC Dominion Securities Inc.		433,333,000
Total	C$	1,300,000,000

The underwriters are committed to take and pay for all of the notes being offered, if any are taken. If an underwriter defaults, the underwriting agreement provides that the purchase commitments of the nondefaulting underwriters may be increased or the underwriting agreement may be terminated.

Notes sold by the underwriters to the public will initially be offered at the public offering price set forth on the cover of this prospectus supplement. Any notes sold by the underwriters to securities dealers may be sold at a price that represents a concession not in excess of 0.200% of the principal amount of the notes. The underwriters may allow, and these dealers may re-allow, a concession of not more than 0.150% of the principal amount of the notes to other dealers. After the notes are released for sale, the underwriters may change the offering price and the other selling terms.

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

	Per Note			Total
Underwriting discount		0.370	%	C$	4,810,000

The notes are a new issue of securities with no established trading market. We do not intend to list the notes on any securities exchange or have the notes quoted on any automated dealer quotation system. We have been advised by the underwriters that the underwriters intend to make a market in the notes after the completion of this offering but are not obligated to do so and may discontinue market making at any time without notice to or the consent of existing noteholders. No assurance can be given as to the development, maintenance or liquidity of any trading market for the notes. 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 this offering, the underwriters may purchase and sell notes in the open market. These transactions may include short sales, stabilizing transactions and purchases 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 this offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of certain bids or purchases made for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the notes while this offering is in progress.

The underwriters also may impose a penalty bid. This occurs when a particular underwriter repays to the underwriters a portion of the underwriting discount received by it because the representatives have repurchased notes sold by or for the account of such underwriter in stabilizing or short covering transactions.

These activities by the underwriters may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the notes. As a result, the price of the notes may be higher than the price that otherwise might exist in the open market. If these

S-31

activities are commenced, they may be discontinued by the underwriters at any time. These transactions may be effected in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.

The expenses of this offering, not including the underwriting discount, are estimated to be $1.4 million, all of which are payable by us.

We and the Guarantor have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to contribute to payments they are required to make in respect thereof.

Any underwriter that is not a broker-dealer registered with the SEC will only make sales of notes in the United States through one or more SEC-registered broker-dealers in compliance with applicable securities laws and the rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.

Other Relationships

The underwriters and their respective affiliates are full-service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include securities trading, commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment, hedging, financing, corporate trust and brokerage activities. Some of the underwriters and their affiliates have engaged in, and may in the future engage in, commercial banking, investment banking, advisory 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.

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 has a lending relationship with us, certain of those underwriters or their affiliates routinely hedge, and certain others 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.

Selling Restrictions

Other than the United States, no action has been taken by us, the Guarantor or, to the best of our knowledge, the underwriters that would permit a public offering of the notes in any jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required. The notes may not be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, nor may this prospectus supplement or any other offering material or advertisements in connection with the offer and sale of any such notes be distributed or published in any jurisdiction, except under circumstances that will result in compliance with the applicable rules and regulations of that jurisdiction. Persons into whose possession this prospectus supplement comes are advised to inform themselves about and to observe any restrictions relating to the offering of the notes and the distribution of this prospectus supplement. This prospectus supplement does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any notes offered by this prospectus supplement in any jurisdiction in which such an offer or a solicitation is unlawful. Certain affiliates of the underwriters are also lenders or agents under our bank facilities.

S-32

Canada

The notes will be sold in Canada on a private placement basis to “accredited investors” and in certain circumstances also to “permitted clients”, each as defined under applicable Canadian provincial securities laws, and on a private placement basis subject to applicable law.

Each underwriter has, severally and not jointly, represented to and agreed with us that the sale and delivery of the notes to any purchaser resident in a province of Canada by such underwriter will be made so as to be exempt from the prospectus filing requirements, and so as to be exempt from or made in compliance with applicable dealer registration requirements or all applicable securities laws, regulations, rules, instruments, rulings and orders, including those applicable in each of the provinces of Canada and the applicable policy statements issued by any securities regulator having jurisdiction. Each underwriter has also, severally and not jointly, represented to and agreed with us that such underwriter has not and will not provide to any purchaser any document or other material that would constitute an offering memorandum (other than the Canadian offering memorandum, dated March 26, 2020 (and the preliminary version thereof) that incorporates this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus) with respect to the private placement of the notes in the provinces of Canada within the meaning of applicable Canadian provincial securities laws.

Purchasers of the notes in any jurisdictions are hereby notified that certificates representing the notes will bear a legend about resales of the notes in Canada to the following effect:

UNLESS PERMITTED UNDER CANADIAN SECURITIES LEGISLATION, THE HOLDER OF THESE NOTES MUST NOT TRADE THE NOTES BEFORE THE DATE THAT IS 4 MONTHS AND A DAY AFTER THE LATER OF (I) MARCH 30, 2020, AND (II) THE DATE THE ISSUER BECAME A REPORTING ISSUER IN ANY PROVINCE OR TERRITORY.

Notice to Prospective Investors in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom

The notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area (“EEA”) or the United Kingdom (the “UK”). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, “MiFID II”); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 (the “Insurance Distribution Directive”), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 (the “Prospectus Regulation”). Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the “PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering or selling the notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA or in the UK has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA or in the UK may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation. This prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus have been prepared on the basis that any offer of notes in any Member State of the EEA or in the UK will be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Regulation from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of notes. This prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus are not a prospectus for the purposes of the Prospectus Regulation.

(b) it has complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the FSMA with respect to anything done by it in relation to the notes in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom.

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS

This prospectus is part of a registration statement that we and TWDC Enterprises filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission utilizing a “shelf” registration process. When we refer to “The Walt Disney Company,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” in this prospectus under the headings “Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements” and “The Walt Disney Company” we mean The Walt Disney Company and its subsidiaries, including TWDC Enterprises 18 Corp., through which various businesses are actually conducted. When such terms are used elsewhere in this prospectus, we refer only to The Walt Disney Company unless the context otherwise requires or as otherwise indicated. When we refer to “TWDC Enterprises” or the “Guarantor” in this prospectus, we refer to TWDC Enterprises 18 Corp., a 100% owned subsidiary of The Walt Disney Company. When we refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2018, we mean the Annual Report on Form 10-K for such period filed by TWDC Enterprises.

Under this shelf registration process, we may, from time to time, sell any combination of the securities described in this prospectus in one or more offerings. This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities we may offer. Each time we sell securities, we will provide a prospectus supplement that will contain specific information about the terms of that offering. The prospectus supplement may also add, update or change information contained in this prospectus. You should read both the prospectus and any prospectus supplement together with the additional information described under the heading “Where You Can Find More Information.”

We may also prepare free writing prospectuses that describe particular debt securities. Any free writing prospectus should also be read in connection with this prospectus and with any prospectus supplement referred to therein. For purposes of this prospectus, any reference to an applicable prospectus supplement may also refer to a free writing prospectus, unless the context otherwise requires.

The registration statement that contains this prospectus, including the exhibits to the registration statement, contains additional information about us, TWDC Enterprises and the securities offered under this prospectus. That registration statement can be read at the Securities and Exchange Commission website mentioned under the heading “Where You Can Find More Information.”

We have not and TWDC Enterprises has not authorized any person to give any information or to make any representation in connection with this prospectus other than those contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and, if given or made, the information or representation must not be relied upon as having been authorized by us or TWDC Enterprises.

This prospectus does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy by anyone in any jurisdiction in which the offer or solicitation is not authorized, or in which the person is not qualified to do so or to any person to whom it is unlawful to make such offer or solicitation. Neither the delivery of this prospectus nor any sale under this prospectus shall, under any circumstances, create any implication that there has been no change in our affairs or the affairs of TWDC Enterprises since the date of this prospectus, that the information contained in this prospectus is correct as of any time subsequent to its date, or that any information incorporated by reference in this prospectus is correct as of any time subsequent to its date.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus, any prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein or therein contain or may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations about future events. These forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, those relating to future actions, new projects, strategies, future performance and the outcome of contingencies such as future financial results, in each case, wherever they appear in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement or the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein or therein, are necessarily estimates reflecting the best judgment of the management of The Walt Disney Company and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements should, therefore, be considered in light of various important factors, including those factors described in more detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 29, 2018 and in any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended December 29, 2018 filed by TWDC Enterprises) and Annual Reports on Form 10-K under Item 1A, “Risk Factors” as well as in any subsequent periodic or current reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Securities Exchange Act of 1934”), that include “Risk Factors” or that discuss risks to us.

You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this prospectus or any prospectus supplement or, in the case of documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein or therein, as of the date of those documents. The Walt Disney Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this prospectus or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law.

THE WALT DISNEY COMPANY

The Walt Disney Company, together with its subsidiaries through which businesses are conducted, is a diversified worldwide entertainment company with operations in four business segments: Media Networks; Parks, Experiences and Products; Studio Entertainment; and Direct-to-Consumer & International. The Walt Disney Company is a Delaware corporation having its principal executive offices at 500 South Buena Vista Street, Burbank, California 91521, and its telephone number is (818) 560-1000.

On March 20, 2019, the Company acquired Twenty-First Century Fox, Inc. (“21CF”). Prior to the acquisition, 21CF and a newly-formed subsidiary of 21CF (“New Fox”) entered into a separation agreement, pursuant to which 21CF transferred to New Fox a portfolio of 21CF’s news, sports and broadcast businesses and certain other assets. 21CF retained all of the assets and liabilities not transferred to New Fox, including the Twentieth Century Fox film and television studios, certain cable networks and 21CF’s international TV businesses; these remaining assets and businesses are held directly or indirectly by the acquired 21CF entity.

As part of the acquisition, the Company agreed to sell 21CF’s Regional Sports Networks, which was completed in August 2019, and certain sport media operations in Brazil and Mexico. In addition, as a result of the 21CF acquisition the Company’s ownership interest in Hulu LLC (“Hulu”) increased to 60% (67% as of June 29, 2019). The acquired 21CF businesses are generally branded Fox, FX, National Geographic and Star.

In this “Description of Debt Securities of The Walt Disney Company” section, when we refer to “The Walt Disney Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” or when we otherwise refer to ourselves, we mean The Walt Disney Company, excluding, unless otherwise expressly stated or the context requires, our subsidiaries (including TWDC Enterprises); references to the “Guarantor” refer only to TWDC Enterprises and not to any of its subsidiaries; and all references to “debt securities” refer only to debt securities issued by The Walt Disney Company and not to any debt securities issued by TWDC Enterprises.

We may issue debt securities either separately, or together with, or upon the conversion or exercise of or in exchange for, other securities. The debt securities will be our unsecured and unsubordinated obligations. We may issue these debt securities in one or more series.

Our debt securities may be issued from time to time under an indenture, which is referred to as the “indenture.” The trustee under the indenture is referred to as the “trustee.”

The following summary of selected provisions of the indenture and the debt securities is not complete. In connection with an investment in our debt securities, you should review the applicable prospectus supplement, the form of the debt securities and the indenture, which have been or will be filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part or a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in this prospectus and may be obtained as described under “Where You Can Find More Information” in this prospectus.

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 we offer to sell a series of debt securities, we will describe the specific terms of the series in the applicable prospectus supplement. If any particular terms of the debt securities or the indenture described in a prospectus supplement differ from any of the terms described in this prospectus, then the terms described in the applicable prospectus supplement will supersede the terms described in this prospectus.

General

We can issue an unlimited amount of debt securities under the indenture. We can issue debt securities from time to time and in one or more series as determined by us. In addition, we can issue debt securities of any series with terms different from the terms of debt securities of any other series and the terms of particular debt securities within any series may differ from each other, all without the consent of the holders of previously issued debt securities.

Special United States federal tax and other considerations applicable to original issue discount securities will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

The above is not intended to be an exclusive list of the terms that may be applicable to any debt securities and we are not limited in any respect in our ability to issue debt securities with terms different from or in addition to those described above or elsewhere in this prospectus.

Consequences of Holding Company Status

Operations are conducted almost entirely through our subsidiaries. Accordingly, our cash flow and our ability to service our debt, including the debt securities, are dependent upon the earnings of our subsidiaries and the distribution of those earnings to us, whether by dividends, loans or otherwise. The payment of dividends and the making of loans and advances to us by our subsidiaries may be subject to statutory or contractual restrictions, are contingent upon the earnings of our subsidiaries and are subject to various business considerations. Our right to receive assets of any of our subsidiaries upon their liquidation or reorganization (and the consequent right of the holders of the debt securities to participate in those assets) will be effectively subordinated to the claims of that subsidiary’s creditors (including trade creditors), except to the extent that we are recognized as a creditor of that subsidiary, in which case our claims would still be effectively subordinated to any security interests in the assets of the subsidiary and would still be contractually subordinated to any indebtedness of the subsidiary senior to that held by us.

10

Holders of our debt securities have a direct claim only against us, unless such debt securities are guaranteed, in which case they also have a direct claim against any applicable guarantor.

Form, Exchange, Registration and Transfer

The debt securities of a series will be issued as registered securities. Debt securities of a series may be issuable in whole or in part in the form of one or more global debt securities, as described below under “—Global Debt Securities.” Unless otherwise indicated in an applicable prospectus supplement, debt securities will be issuable in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Debt securities of any series will be exchangeable for other securities of the same series of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor. Unless otherwise indicated in an applicable prospectus supplement, debt securities may be presented for registration of transfer, at the office or agency designated by us as registrar or co-registrar with respect to any series of debt securities, without service charge and upon payment of any taxes, assessments or other governmental charges as described in the indenture. The transfer or exchange will be effected on the books of the registrar or any other transfer agent appointed by us upon the registrar or transfer agent, as the case may be, being satisfied with the documents of title and identity of the person making the request. We have appointed the trustee as the initial registrar under the indenture and the name of any different or additional registrar designated by us with respect to the debt securities of any series will be included in the applicable prospectus supplement. If a prospectus supplement refers to any office or agency where debt securities may be presented or surrendered for payment, registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands may be served (in addition to the registrar’s office) designated by us with respect to any series of debt securities, we may at any time rescind such designation or approve a change in the location of such office or agency, except that we will be required to maintain an office or agency in each place of payment for that series and, if required by the depositary, we will appoint a paying agent and registrar in The City of New York.

We may at any time designate additional offices or agencies where the debt securities of any series may be presented or surrendered for any or all purposes listed above.

In the event of any redemption of debt securities of any series, we will not be required to:

• issue, register the transfer of or exchange debt securities of that series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of debt securities of that series to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on the day of mailing or other delivery of the relevant notice of redemption; or

• register the transfer of or exchange any debt security, or portion thereof, called for redemption, except the unredeemed portion of any debt security being redeemed in part.

The TWDC Enterprises Guarantee

Unless otherwise indicated in an applicable prospectus supplement, the Guarantor will fully and unconditionally guarantee the full and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any, interest on, and all other amounts payable under the debt securities (such debt securities, the “guaranteed debt securities”), in each case, when the same becomes due and payable, whether at maturity or upon redemption, repayment at the option of the holders of the debt securities, upon acceleration or otherwise. If for any reason we do not make any required payment in respect of our guaranteed debt securities when due, the Guarantor will on demand pay the unpaid amount at the same place and in the same manner that applies to payments made by us under the indenture. The guarantee is of payment, performance and compliance and not of collection.

Holders of our guaranteed debt securities are our direct creditors, as well as direct creditors of the Guarantor under the guarantee. The terms of the guarantee of any guaranteed debt securities will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

11

The Guarantor will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged from its guarantee (i) upon notice by us to the trustee, at any time, that (x) the Guarantor is not a borrower, issuer or guarantor under certain material credit facilities or any debt securities (or substantially concurrently with the Guarantor’s release and discharge under such obligations) or (y) the aggregate principal amount of indebtedness for borrowed money (without duplication) issued or borrowed by all Measured Subsidiaries (as defined below) of The Walt Disney Company (collectively) (other than any indebtedness for borrowed money represented by a guarantee under the indenture or guarantees of third party indebtedness) constitutes (or, as a result of any event or circumstance occurring or arising substantially concurrently therewith, will constitute) no more than 10.0% of the aggregate principal amount of indebtedness for borrowed money of The Walt Disney Company and its Measured Subsidiaries (other than any indebtedness for borrowed money represented by guarantees of third-party indebtedness), on a consolidated basis, as of such time, (ii) upon the sale, transfer or disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger) of all or substantially all of the equity interests or assets of the Guarantor to another person (other than to us or any of our other subsidiaries), (iii) upon the discharge of our obligations under the indenture in accordance with its terms or (iv) upon any covenant defeasance or legal defeasance with respect to the debt securities of the applicable series as described in “—Discharge and Defeasance” below.

In the case of a Non-Corporate Entity, a person shall be deemed to have more than 50% of interests having ordinary voting power only if such person’s vote in respect of such interests comprises more than 50% of the total voting power of all such interests in such Non-Corporate Entity. For purposes of this definition, any managerial powers or rights comparable to managerial powers afforded to a person solely by reason of such person’s ownership of general partner or comparable interests (or foreign equivalent) shall not be deemed to be “interests having ordinary voting power.”

“Shanghai Project Entity” means any subsidiary of the Guarantor and any other person whose equity securities or interests are owned, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, by the Guarantor or any of its subsidiaries, the primary business of which is the direct or indirect ownership, management, operation, design, construction and/or financing of the recreational and commercial facilities and complex or any part thereof or any addition thereto, to be known as “Shanghai Disney,” “Shanghai Disneyland” or “Disneyland Resort Shanghai” or by any similar name, to be located in the Pudong New Area, Shanghai, People’s Republic of China, which subsidiaries and other persons include, without limitation, as of the date hereof, Shanghai International Theme Park Company Limited, Shanghai International Theme Park Associated Facilities Company Limited, Shanghai International Theme Park and Resort Management Company Limited and WD Holdings (Shanghai), LLC.

See “—Mergers and Sales of Assets.”

Payment and Paying Agents

Unless otherwise indicated in an applicable prospectus supplement, payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on debt securities will be made at the office of the paying agent or paying agents designated by us from time to time, except that at our option, payment of principal and premium, if any, or interest also may be made by wire transfer to an account maintained by the payee.

All moneys paid by us to a paying agent for the payment of principal of and premium, if any, or interest, if any, on any debt security which remains unclaimed at the end of two years after that principal or interest shall have become due and payable will be repaid to us, and the holder of the debt security will thereafter look only to us for payment of those amounts.

A debt security in global form may not be transferred except as a whole to the depositary for the debt security or to its nominee or successor of the depositary or a nominee of such successor. If any debt securities of a series are issuable in global form, the applicable prospectus supplement will describe the circumstances, if any, under which beneficial owners of interests in a global debt security may exchange their interests for definitive debt securities of that series of like tenor and principal amount in any authorized form and denomination, the manner of payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the global debt securities and the specific terms of the depositary arrangement with respect to any global debt security.

The indenture provides that if an event of default (other than an event of default described in clause (c) of the next paragraph) occurs and is continuing with respect to a series of debt securities, the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series may declare the principal amount (or, if any of the debt securities of that series are original issue discount securities, that portion of the principal amount of the debt securities as may be specified by the terms thereof) of the debt securities of that series to be immediately due and payable. The indenture further provides that, if an event of default described in clause (c) of the next paragraph occurs and is continuing with respect to a series of debt securities, the principal amount (or, if any of the debt securities of that series are original issue discount securities, that portion of the principal amount of the debt securities as may be specified by the terms thereof) of the debt securities of that series shall become and be immediately due and payable, without any declaration or other act on the part of the trustee or the holders of any debt securities of that series. Under certain circumstances, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of the series may rescind an acceleration of the debt securities of such series and its consequences.

Under the indenture, unless otherwise specified with respect to a series of debt securities in the applicable prospectus supplement, the following events will constitute an event of default with respect to a series of debt securities:

(a) default in (i) payment of any principal of or premium, if any, on any debt security of the series at its maturity or (ii) payment of any interest on any debt security of the series when due and payable, continuing for 30 days;

(b) failure by us to comply with our other agreements in the debt securities of the series or the indenture for the benefit of the holders of debt securities of that series upon the receipt by us of notice of the default given by the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of the series and our failure to cure the default within 60 days after receipt by us of the notice;

(c) specified events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to us or any guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary;

(d) the guarantee of a Significant Subsidiary ceases to be in full force and effect (other than as specified above under “—The TWDC Enterprises Guarantee” or as otherwise provided under the terms of the indenture) or the Guarantor denies its liability under the guarantee; and

(e) any other event of default applicable to the series of debt securities and set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

“Significant Subsidiary” means, at any time, any of our subsidiaries which would be a “Significant Subsidiary” at such time, as such term is defined in Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, as in effect on the date of the indenture.

The trustee will give notice to holders of the debt securities of any continuing default known to the trustee within 90 days after the occurrence of the default. However, the trustee may withhold notice of any default, other than a payment default, if it determines in good faith that withholding the notice is in the interests of the holders.

The holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the trustee with respect to the debt securities of that series, provided that the trustee may

15

refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with any law or the indenture or that the trustee determines in good faith is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other holders or would involve the trustee in personal liability and subject to other limitations provided for in the indenture. Before proceeding to exercise any right or power under the indenture at the direction of holders, the trustee will be entitled to receive from the holders reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in complying with the direction. With respect to each series of debt securities, no holder will have any right to pursue any remedy with respect to the indenture or the debt securities of that series, unless:

(a) the holder has previously given the trustee written notice of a continuing event of default with respect to the debt securities of that series;

(b) the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of the series have made a written request to the trustee to pursue the remedy;

(c) the holder or holders have offered to the trustee reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory to the trustee;

(d) the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of the series have not given the trustee a direction inconsistent with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request; and

(e) the trustee has failed to comply with the request within the 60-day period.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the right of any holder of any debt security to receive payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest in respect of such debt security on the date or dates specified for payment in the debt security (or, in the case of redemption, on the applicable redemption date), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or adversely affected without the holder’s consent. The holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may waive an existing default with respect to that series and its consequences, other than (i) an event of default in the payment of any principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, any debt security of the series when due, or (ii) a default in respect of the covenants or provisions in the indenture which may not be modified without the consent of the holder of each outstanding debt security of the series affected as described in “—Modification and Waiver” below.

The indenture provides for us to deliver to the trustee within 120 days after the end of each of our fiscal years an officer’s certificate stating whether or not the signers know of any default that occurred during the last fiscal year.

Modification and Waiver

The indenture permits us, the Guarantor and the trustee to execute a supplemental indenture without the consent of the holders of the debt securities issued under the indenture:

• to evidence the succession of another organization to us and the assumption by it of our obligations under the indenture and the debt securities;

• to evidence the succession of another organization to the Guarantor and the assumption by it of the Guarantor’s obligations under the indenture;

• to add to our or the Guarantor’s covenants, agreements and obligations for the benefit of the holders of all the debt securities or any series thereof, or to surrender any right or power conferred in the indenture upon us;

• to establish the form or terms of debt securities of any series as permitted by the indenture;

• to provide for the acceptance of appointment under the indenture of a successor trustee with respect to the debt securities of one or more series and to add to or change any provisions of that indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts by more than one trustee;

16

• to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency;

• to add to, change or eliminate any provisions (which addition, change or elimination may apply to one or more series of debt securities), provided that the addition, change or elimination neither (a) applies to any debt security of any series that was created prior to the execution of the supplemental indenture and is entitled to the benefit of that provision nor (b) modifies the rights of the holder of any such debt security with respect to that provision;

• to change or eliminate any provisions as is necessary or desirable in accordance with any amendments to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”);

• to reflect the release of the Guarantor in accordance with the provisions described in “—The TWDC Enterprises Guarantee” above;

• to add guarantors with respect to the debt securities of one or more series or to secure the debt securities (and to reflect the release of any such additional guarantees or security in accordance with the terms of the indenture); or

• to make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any holder of the debt securities issued under the indenture in any material respect.

The indenture also permits us, the Guarantor and the trustee, with the consent of (i) the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities issued under the indenture voting as a single class or (ii) in case less than all of the series of outstanding debt securities issued under the indenture are affected by such addition, change, elimination or modification, the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding securities of all series issued under the indenture so affected by such supplemental indenture voting as a single class (including, for the avoidance of doubt, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, the debt securities), to execute a supplemental indenture to add provisions to, or change in any manner or eliminate any provisions of, the indenture with respect to the applicable series of debt securities or modify in any manner the rights of the holders of the debt securities of the applicable series under the indenture, and the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series under the indenture may, by written consent, waive compliance by us or the Guarantor with any provision of the indenture (but solely insofar as such provision relates to the debt securities of such series) or any provision of the debt securities of such series; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture or waiver shall, without the written consent of the holder of each outstanding debt security under the indenture affected thereby:

• change the stated maturity of the principal of, or any installment of principal or interest on, any such debt security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest thereon or any premium payable upon redemption thereof;

• reduce the amount of principal of any original issue discount security that would be due and payable upon declaration of acceleration of maturity thereof;

• change the place or currency of payment of principal and premium, if any, or interest, if any, on any such debt security;

• impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on any such debt security on or after the stated maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the redemption date);

• reduce the percentage in principal amount of outstanding debt securities of any series necessary to modify or amend the indenture or to waive compliance with certain provisions thereof or certain defaults thereunder with respect to the debt securities of such series; or

• modify any of the provisions of the indenture described in this paragraph except to increase the percentage of outstanding debt securities of such series required for such actions or to provide that certain other provisions of the indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the holder of each outstanding debt security affected thereby.

17

Discharge and Defeasance

Unless otherwise indicated in an applicable prospectus supplement, the indenture provides that we may satisfy and discharge our obligations thereunder (subject to limited exceptions) with respect to the debt securities of any series issued thereunder by delivering to the trustee for cancellation all outstanding debt securities of such series or depositing with the trustee, after the outstanding debt securities of such series have become due and payable, or will become due and payable within one year or will be called for redemption within one year, cash sufficient to pay to the date of deposit (in the case of debt securities of such series which have become due and payable) or to the stated maturity or redemption date, as the case may be, all of the outstanding debt securities of the series and all other sums payable under the indenture with respect to the series.

In addition, unless otherwise indicated in an applicable prospectus supplement, the indenture provides that we may:

(a) be discharged from our obligations (subject to exceptions) in respect of the debt securities of a series (“defeasance and discharge”); or

(b) cease to comply with specified covenants insofar as they relate to the debt securities of a series (“covenant defeasance”), including those described under “—Mergers and Sales of Assets”;

and the omission will not be an event of default with respect to the debt securities of that series, in each case at any time prior to the stated maturity or redemption thereof, if we irrevocably deposit with the trustee, in trust:

(i) sufficient funds in the currency or currency unit in which the debt securities of that series are denominated to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest to stated maturity or redemption on, the debt securities of that series; or

(ii) that amount of direct obligations of, or obligations the principal of and interest on which are fully guaranteed by, the government which issued the currency in which the debt securities are denominated, and which are not subject to prepayment, redemption or call, as will, together with the predetermined and certain income to accrue thereon without consideration of any reinvestment thereof, be sufficient to pay when due the principal of, premium, if any, and interest to stated maturity or redemption on, the debt securities of that series.

The defeasance and discharge and covenant defeasance described above are effective only if, among other things, we deliver an opinion of counsel to the effect that (i) we have met all of the conditions precedent to the defeasance and the holders of the debt securities of the series will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of the defeasance, and will be subject to tax in the same manner as if no defeasance had occurred and (ii) in the case of defeasance and discharge, the opinion as to tax consequences is based upon an Internal Revenue Service ruling or a change in applicable United States federal income tax law; provided, however, that the opinion of counsel required by clause (i) above will not need to be delivered if all debt securities of the applicable series not theretofore delivered to the trustee for cancellation have become due and payable or will become due and payable at the maturity date of such debt securities within one year under arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the trustee in our name and at our expense.

Upon the defeasance and discharge, the holders of the debt securities of the series will no longer be entitled to the benefits of the indenture, subject to certain exceptions (including for the purposes of registration of transfer and exchange of the debt securities of the series and replacement of lost, stolen or mutilated debt securities), and should look to the deposited funds or obligations for payment. In the case of covenant defeasance of the debt securities of any series, we and any guarantors will no longer be required to comply, solely insofar as relates to the debt securities of that series, with the covenants as to which covenant defeasance has occurred and a failure to comply with those covenants shall thereafter not constitute a default or event of default with respect of the debt securities of that series.

18

The Trustee under the Indenture

The trustee under the indenture, and/or one or more of its respective affiliates, may be lenders under our credit agreements, if any, and may provide other commercial banking, investment banking and other services to us and/or our subsidiaries and affiliates. The trustee will be permitted to engage in other transactions with us and/or our subsidiaries and affiliates. However, if the trustee acquires any conflicting interest, as defined in the Trust Indenture Act, it must eliminate the conflict or resign.

Except during the continuance of an event of default, the trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in the indenture and no others. In case an event of default occurs and is continuing, the trustee is required to exercise the rights and powers vested in it by the indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would exercise under the circumstances in the conduct of its own affairs.

The initial trustee under the indenture dated as of March 20, 2019 is Citibank, N.A.

Applicable Law

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

DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED STOCK OF THE WALT DISNEY COMPANY

In this “Description of Preferred Stock of The Walt Disney Company” section, when we refer to “The Walt Disney Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” or when we otherwise refer to ourselves, we mean The Walt Disney Company, excluding, unless otherwise expressly stated or the context requires, our subsidiaries (including TWDC Enterprises); all references to “preferred stock” refer only to preferred stock issued by The Walt Disney Company and not to any preferred stock issued by any subsidiary, including TWDC Enterprises.

We may issue, from time to time, shares of one or more series or classes of our preferred stock. The following description sets forth certain general terms and provisions of the preferred stock to which any prospectus supplement may relate. The particular terms of any series of preferred stock and the extent, if any, to which these general provisions may apply to the series of preferred stock offered will be described in the prospectus supplement relating to that preferred stock. The following summary of provisions of the preferred stock does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the provisions of our charter, bylaws and the certificate of designation relating to a specific series of the preferred stock, which will be in the form filed as an exhibit to, or incorporated by reference in, the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part at or prior to the time of issuance of that series of preferred stock. You should read our charter, bylaws and the relevant certificate of designation.

General

Under our charter, we have the authority to issue 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Our Board of Directors is authorized to issue shares of preferred stock, in one or more series or classes, and to fix for each series voting powers and those preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and those qualifications, limitations or restrictions as are permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”).

Our Board of Directors is authorized to determine the terms for each series of preferred stock, and the prospectus supplement will describe the terms of any series of preferred stock being offered, including:

• the designation of the shares and the number of shares that constitute the series;

• the dividend rate (or the method of calculation thereof), if any, on the shares of the series and the priority as to payment of dividends with respect to other classes or series of our capital stock;

• the dividend periods (or the method of calculation thereof);

• the voting rights of the shares;

• the liquidation preference and the priority as to payment of the liquidation preference with respect to other classes or series of our capital stock and any other rights of the shares of the series upon our liquidation or winding up;

• whether or not and on what terms the shares of the series will be subject to redemption or repurchase at our option;

• whether and on what terms the shares of the series will be convertible into or exchangeable for other securities;

• whether depositary shares representing shares of the series of preferred stock will be offered and, if so, the fraction of a share of the series of preferred stock represented by each depositary share (see “Description of Depositary Shares of The Walt Disney Company” below);

• whether the shares of the series of preferred stock will be listed on a securities exchange;

• any special United States federal income tax considerations applicable to the series; and

• the other rights and privileges and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions of the rights or privileges of the series.

20

Dividends

Holders of shares of preferred stock shall be entitled to receive, when and as declared by our Board of Directors out of our funds legally available therefor, an annual cash dividend payable at the dates and at the rates, if any, per share per annum as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Unless otherwise set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, each series of preferred stock will rank junior as to dividends to any preferred stock that may be issued in the future that is expressly senior as to dividends to that preferred stock. If we should fail at any time to pay accrued dividends on any senior shares at the time the dividends are payable, we may not pay any dividend on the junior preferred stock or redeem or otherwise repurchase shares of junior preferred stock until the accumulated but unpaid dividends on the senior shares have been paid or set aside for payment in full by us.

Unless otherwise set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, no dividends (other than in common stock or other capital stock ranking junior to the preferred stock of any series as to dividends and upon liquidation) may be declared or paid or set aside for payment, nor may any other distribution be declared or made upon the common stock, or any of our other capital stock ranking junior to or on a parity with the preferred stock of that series as to dividends, nor may any common stock or any of our other capital stock ranking junior to or on a parity with the preferred stock of that series as to dividends be redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired for any consideration (or any monies be paid to or made available for a sinking fund for the redemption of any shares of any of that stock) by us (except by conversion into or exchange for other capital stock of ours ranking junior to the preferred stock of that series as to dividends) unless (i) if that series of preferred stock has a cumulative dividend, full cumulative dividends on the preferred stock of that series have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for all past dividend periods and the then current dividend period and (ii) if such series of preferred stock does not have a cumulative dividend, full dividends on the preferred stock of such series have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for payment for the then current dividend period. However, any monies deposited in any sinking fund with respect to any preferred stock in compliance with the provisions of the sinking fund may be applied to the purchase or redemption of that preferred stock in accordance with the terms of the sinking fund, regardless of whether at the time of the application full dividends, including cumulative dividends, upon shares of the preferred stock outstanding on the last dividend payment date have been paid or declared and set apart for payment. In addition, any junior or parity preferred stock or common stock may be converted into or exchanged for our stock ranking junior to the preferred stock as to dividends.

The amount of dividends payable for the initial dividend period or any period shorter than a full dividend period shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months, unless otherwise set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. Accrued but unpaid dividends will not bear interest, unless otherwise set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Convertibility

No series of preferred stock will be convertible into, or exchangeable for, other securities or property except as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Redemption and Sinking Fund

No series of preferred stock will be redeemable or receive the benefit of a sinking fund except as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Liquidation Rights

Unless otherwise set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, in the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of shares of each series of preferred stock are entitled to receive out of our assets

21

available for distribution to stockholders, before any distribution of assets is made to holders of (i) any other shares of preferred stock ranking junior to that series of preferred stock as to rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up and (ii) shares of common stock, liquidating distributions per share in the amount of the liquidation preference specified in the applicable prospectus supplement for that series of preferred stock plus any dividends accrued and accumulated but unpaid to the date of final distribution; but the holders of each series of preferred stock will not be entitled to receive the liquidating distribution of, plus such dividends on, those shares until the liquidation preference of any shares of our capital stock ranking senior to that series of the preferred stock as to the rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up shall have been paid (or a sum set aside therefor sufficient to provide for payment) in full. If upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the amounts payable with respect to the preferred stock, and any other preferred stock ranking as to any distribution on a parity with the preferred stock are not paid in full, then the holders of the preferred stock and the other parity preferred stock will share ratably in any distribution of assets in proportion to the full respective preferential amount to which they are entitled. Unless otherwise specified in a prospectus supplement for a series of preferred stock, after payment of the full amount of the liquidating distribution to which they are entitled, the holders of shares of preferred stock will not be entitled to any further participation in any distribution of our assets. Neither a consolidation or merger of us with another corporation nor a sale of securities shall be considered a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of us.

Voting Rights

The holders of each series or class of preferred stock we may issue will have no voting rights, except as required by law and as described below or in the applicable prospectus supplement. Our Board of Directors may, upon issuance of a series or class of preferred stock, grant voting rights to the holders of that series or class to elect additional board members if we fail to pay dividends in a timely fashion.

Without the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of any class of preferred stock then outstanding, we may not:

• increase or decrease the aggregate number of authorized shares of that class;

• increase or decrease the par value of the shares of that class; or

• alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of the shares of that class so as to affect them adversely.

If the amendment would adversely alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of one or more series of a class of preferred stock, but not the entire class, then only the shares of the affected series will have the right to vote on the amendment.

Miscellaneous

The holders of our preferred stock will have no preemptive rights. All shares of preferred stock being offered by the applicable prospectus supplement will be fully paid and not liable to further calls or assessment by us. If we should redeem or otherwise reacquire shares of our preferred stock, then these shares will resume the status of authorized and unissued shares of preferred stock undesignated as to series, and will be available for subsequent issuance. There are no restrictions on repurchase or redemption of the preferred stock while there is any arrearage on sinking fund installments except as may be set forth in an applicable prospectus supplement. Payment of dividends on any series of preferred stock may be restricted by loan agreements, indentures and other transactions entered into by us. Any material contractual restrictions on dividend payments will be described or incorporated by reference in the applicable prospectus supplement.

When we offer to sell a series of preferred stock, we will describe the specific terms of the series in the applicable prospectus supplement. If any particular terms of a series of preferred stock described in a prospectus supplement differ from any of the terms described in this prospectus, then the terms described in the applicable prospectus supplement will be deemed to supersede the terms described in this prospectus.

22

No Other Rights

The shares of a series of preferred stock will not have any preferences, voting powers or relative, participating, optional or other special rights except as set forth above or in the applicable prospectus supplement, our charter or the applicable certificate of designation or as otherwise required by law.

Transfer Agent and Registrar

The transfer agent and registrar for each series of preferred stock will be designated in the applicable prospectus supplement.

23

DESCRIPTION OF DEPOSITARY SHARES OF THE WALT DISNEY COMPANY

In this “Description of Depositary Shares of The Walt Disney Company” section, when we refer to “The Walt Disney Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” or when we otherwise refer to ourselves, we mean The Walt Disney Company, excluding, unless otherwise expressly stated or the context requires, our subsidiaries (including TWDC Enterprises); all references to “depositary shares” refer only to depositary share receipts issued by The Walt Disney Company and not to any depositary share receipts issued by any subsidiary, including TWDC Enterprises.

General

We may, at our option, elect to offer fractional shares rather than full shares of the preferred stock of a series. In the event that we exercise this option, we will issue receipts for depositary shares, each of which will represent a fraction (to be set forth in the prospectus supplement relating to a particular series of preferred stock) of a share of a particular series of preferred stock as described below.

The shares of any series of preferred stock represented by depositary shares will be deposited under one or more deposit agreements among us, a depositary to be named in the applicable prospectus supplement, and the holders from time to time of depositary receipts issued thereunder.

Subject to the terms of the applicable deposit agreement, each holder of a depositary share will be entitled, in proportion to the applicable fraction of a share of preferred stock represented by the depositary share, to all the rights and preferences of the preferred stock represented thereby (including, as applicable, dividend, voting, redemption, subscription and liquidation rights).

The depositary shares will be evidenced by depositary receipts issued pursuant to the deposit agreement. Depositary receipts will be distributed to those persons purchasing the fractional shares of the related series of preferred stock.

The following description sets forth certain general terms and provisions of the depositary shares to which any prospectus supplement may relate. The particular terms of the depositary shares to which any prospectus supplement may relate and the extent, if any, to which such general provisions may apply to the depositary shares so offered will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. To the extent that any particular terms of the depositary shares or the deposit agreement described in a prospectus supplement differ from any of the terms described below, then the terms described below will be deemed to have been superseded by that prospectus supplement. The forms of deposit agreement and depositary receipt have been or will be filed or incorporated by reference as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part or the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in this prospectus.

The following summary of certain provisions of the depositary shares and deposit agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by express reference to, all the provisions of the deposit agreement and the applicable prospectus supplement, including the definitions therein of certain terms.

Immediately following our issuance of shares of a series of preferred stock that will be offered as fractional shares, we will deposit the shares with the depositary, which will then issue and deliver the depositary receipts to the purchasers thereof. Depositary receipts will only be issued evidencing whole depositary shares. A depositary receipt may evidence any number of whole depositary shares.

Pending the preparation of definitive depositary receipts, the depositary may, upon our written order, issue temporary depositary receipts substantially identical to (and entitling the holders thereof to all the rights pertaining to) the definitive depositary receipts but not in definitive form. Definitive depositary receipts will be prepared thereafter without unreasonable delay, and such temporary depositary receipts will be exchangeable for definitive depositary receipts at our expense.

24

Dividends and Other Distributions

The depositary will distribute all cash dividends or other cash distributions received in respect of the related series of preferred stock to the record holders of depositary shares relating to the series of preferred stock in proportion to the number of the depositary shares owned by the holders.

In the event of a distribution other than in cash, the depositary will distribute property received by it to the record holders of depositary shares entitled thereto in proportion to the number of depositary shares owned by the holders, unless the depositary determines that the distribution cannot be made proportionately among the holders or that it is not feasible to make the distributions, in which case the depositary may, with our approval, adopt any method as it deems equitable and practicable for the purpose of effecting the distribution, including the sale (at public or private sale) of the securities or property thus received, or any part thereof, at the place or places and upon those terms as it may deem proper.

The amount distributed in any of the foregoing cases will be reduced by any amounts required to be withheld by us or the depositary on account of taxes or other governmental charges.

Redemption of Depositary Shares

If any series of the preferred stock underlying the depositary shares is subject to redemption, the depositary shares will be redeemed from the proceeds received by the depositary resulting from any redemption, in whole or in part, of the series of the preferred stock held by the depositary. The redemption price per depositary share will be equal to the applicable fraction of the redemption price per share payable with respect to the series of the preferred stock. If we redeem shares of a series of preferred stock held by the depositary, the depositary will redeem as of the same redemption date the number of depositary shares representing the shares of preferred stock so redeemed. If less than all the depositary shares are to be redeemed, the depositary shares to be redeemed will be selected by lot or substantially equivalent method determined by the depositary.

After the date fixed for redemption, the depositary shares so called for redemption will no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights of the holders of the depositary shares will cease, except the right to receive the moneys payable upon redemption and any money or other property to which the holders of the depositary shares were entitled upon such redemption, upon surrender to the depositary of the depositary receipts evidencing the depositary shares. Any funds deposited by us with the depositary for any depositary shares that the holders thereof fail to redeem will be returned to us after a period of two years from the date the funds are so deposited.

Voting the Underlying Preferred Stock

Upon receipt of notice of any meeting at which the holders of any series of the preferred stock are entitled to vote, the depositary will mail the information contained in the notice of meeting to the record holders of the depositary shares relating to the series of preferred stock. Each record holder of the depositary shares on the record date (which will be the same date as the record date for the related series of preferred stock) will be entitled to instruct the depositary as to the exercise of the voting rights pertaining to the number of shares of the series of preferred stock represented by that holder’s depositary shares. The depositary will endeavor, insofar as practicable, to vote or cause to be voted the number of shares of preferred stock represented by the depositary shares in accordance with the instructions, provided the depositary receives the instructions sufficiently in advance of the meeting to enable it to so vote or cause to be voted the shares of preferred stock, and we will agree to take all reasonable action that may be deemed necessary by the depositary in order to enable the depositary to do so. The depositary will abstain from voting shares of the preferred stock to the extent it does not receive specific instructions from the holders of depositary shares representing the preferred stock.

Withdrawal of Stock

Upon surrender of the depositary receipts at the corporate trust office of the depositary and upon payment of the taxes, charges and fees provided for in the deposit agreement and subject to the terms thereof, the holder of the

25

depositary shares evidenced thereby is entitled to delivery at such office, to or upon his or her order, of the number of whole shares of the related series of preferred stock and any money or other property, if any, represented by the depositary shares. We will not issue any partial shares of preferred stock. Holders of depositary shares will be entitled to receive whole shares of the related series of preferred stock, but holders of the whole shares of preferred stock will not thereafter be entitled to deposit the shares of preferred stock with the depositary or to receive depositary shares therefor. If the depositary receipts delivered by the holder evidence a number of depositary shares in excess of the number of depositary shares representing the number of whole shares of the related series of preferred stock to be withdrawn, the depositary will deliver to the holder or upon his or her order at the same time a new depositary receipt evidencing the excess number of depositary shares.

Conversion or Exchange of Preferred Stock

If the deposited preferred stock is convertible into or exchangeable for other securities, the following will apply. The depositary shares, as such, will not be convertible into or exchangeable for such other securities. Rather, any holder of the depositary shares may surrender the related depositary receipts, together with any amounts payable by the holder in connection with the conversion or the exchange, to the depositary with written instructions to cause conversion or exchange of the preferred stock represented by the depositary shares into or for such other securities. If only some of the depositary shares are to be converted or exchanged, a new depositary receipt or receipts will be issued for any depositary shares not to be converted or exchanged.

Amendment and Termination of a Deposit Agreement

The form of depositary receipt evidencing the depositary shares of any series and any provision of the applicable deposit agreement may at any time and from time to time be amended by agreement between us and the depositary. However, any amendment that materially adversely alters the rights of the holders of depositary shares of any series will not be effective unless the amendment has been approved by the holders of at least a majority of the depositary shares of the series then outstanding. Every holder of a depositary receipt at the time the amendment becomes effective will be deemed, by continuing to hold the depositary receipt, to be bound by the deposit agreement as so amended. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may any amendment impair the right of any holder of any depositary shares, upon surrender of the depositary receipts evidencing the depositary shares and subject to any conditions specified in the deposit agreement, to receive shares of the related series of preferred stock and any money or other property represented thereby, except in order to comply with mandatory provisions of applicable law. The deposit agreement may be terminated by us at any time upon not less than 60 days’ prior written notice to the depositary, in which case, on a date that is not later than 30 days after the date of the notice, the depositary shall deliver or make available for delivery to holders of depositary shares, upon surrender of the depositary receipts evidencing the depositary shares, the number of whole or fractional shares of the related series of preferred stock as are represented by the depositary shares. The deposit agreement shall automatically terminate after all outstanding depositary shares have been redeemed or there has been a final distribution in respect of the related series of preferred stock in connection with any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of us and the distribution has been distributed to the holders of depositary shares.

Charges of Depositary

We will pay all transfer and other taxes and the governmental charges arising solely from the existence of the depositary arrangements. We will pay the charges of the depositary, including charges in connection with the initial deposit of the related series of preferred stock and the initial issuance of the depositary shares and all withdrawals of shares of the related series of preferred stock, except that holders of depositary shares will pay transfer and other taxes and governmental charges and any other charges as are expressly provided in the deposit agreement to be for their accounts.

26

Limitations on Liability

Neither we nor the depositary will be liable if either of us is prevented or delayed by law or any circumstance beyond our control in performing our respective obligations under the deposit agreement. Our obligations and those of the depositary will be limited to performance in good faith of our respective duties under the deposit agreement. Neither we nor the depositary will be obligated to prosecute or defend any legal proceeding in respect of any depositary shares or underlying stock unless satisfactory indemnity is furnished. We and the depositary may rely upon written advice of counsel or accountants, or upon information provided by persons presenting underlying stock for deposit, holders of depositary receipts or other persons believed to be competent and on documents believed to be genuine.

In the event the depositary receives conflicting claims, requests or instructions from any holders of depositary shares, on the one hand, and us, on the other, the depositary will act on our claims, requests or instructions.

Resignation and Removal of Depositary

The depositary may resign at any time by delivering to us written notice of its election to do so, and we may at any time remove the depositary. Any resignation or removal is to take effect upon the appointment of a successor depositary, which successor depositary must be appointed within 60 days after delivery of the notice of resignation or removal and must be a bank or trust company having its principal office in the United States and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000.

Miscellaneous

The depositary will forward to the holders of depositary shares all reports and communications from us that are delivered to the depositary and which we are required to furnish to the holders of the related preferred stock.

The depositary’s corporate trust office will be identified in the applicable prospectus supplement. Unless otherwise set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, the depositary will act as transfer agent and registrar for depositary receipts and if shares of a series of preferred stock are redeemable, the depositary will also act as redemption agent for the corresponding depositary receipts.

DESCRIPTION OF COMMON STOCK OF THE WALT DISNEY COMPANY

In this “Description of Common Stock of The Walt Disney Company” section, when we refer to “The Walt Disney Company,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” or when we otherwise refer to ourselves, we mean The Walt Disney Company, excluding, unless otherwise expressly stated or the context requires, our subsidiaries (including TWDC Enterprises); all references to “common stock” refer only to common stock issued by The Walt Disney Company and not to any common stock issued by any subsidiary, including TWDC Enterprises.

We may issue, from time to time, shares of our common stock, the general terms and provisions of which are summarized below. This summary does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by express reference to, the provisions of our charter, bylaws and the applicable prospectus supplement.

Authorized Shares

Under our charter, we have the authority to issue 4,600,000,000 shares of common stock.

Dividends

Subject to any preferential rights of any series of preferred stock, holders of shares of common stock will be entitled to receive dividends on the stock out of assets legally available for distribution when, as and if authorized and declared by our Board of Directors. The payment of dividends on the common stock will be a business decision to be made by our Board of Directors from time to time based upon results of our operations and our financial condition and any other factors as our Board of Directors considers relevant. Payment of dividends on the common stock may be restricted by loan agreements, indentures and other transactions entered into by us from time to time. Any material contractual restrictions on dividend payments will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Voting Rights

Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters voted on generally by the stockholders, including the election of directors, and, except as otherwise required by law or except as provided with respect to any series of preferred stock, the holders of common stock possess all voting power. Our charter does not provide for cumulative voting for the election of directors. As a result, under the DGCL, the holders of more than one-half of the outstanding shares of common stock generally will be able to elect all the directors of The Walt Disney Company then standing for election and holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any director. Directors are elected by a majority of votes cast at the annual meeting of stockholders, unless the election is contested, in which case directors are elected by a plurality of votes cast. A majority of votes cast means that the numbers of shares voted “for” a director exceeds the number of votes cast “against” that director.

If an incumbent director in an uncontested election does not receive a majority of votes cast for his or her election, the director is required to submit a letter of resignation to the Board of Directors for consideration by the Governance and Nominating Committee. The Governance and Nominating Committee is required to promptly assess the appropriateness of such nominee continuing to serve as a director and recommend to the Board of Directors the action to be taken with respect to the tendered resignation. The Board of Directors is required to determine whether to accept or reject the resignation, or what other action should be taken, within ninety (90) days of the date of the certification of election results.

Liquidation Rights

Subject to any preferential rights of any series of preferred stock, holders of shares of common stock are entitled to share ratably in our assets legally available for distribution to our stockholders in the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up.

28

Absence of Other Rights

Holders of common stock have no preferential, preemptive, conversion or exchange rights.

Miscellaneous

All shares of common stock being offered by the applicable prospectus supplement will be fully paid and not liable to further calls or assessment by us.

Transfer Agent and Registrar

Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions Inc. is the principal transfer agent and registrar for the common stock.

Certain Anti-takeover Effects

General. Certain provisions of our charter and the DGCL could make it more difficult to consummate an acquisition of control of us by means of a tender offer, a proxy fight, open market purchases or otherwise in a transaction not approved by our Board of Directors. The provisions described below may reduce our vulnerability to an unsolicited proposal for the restructuring or sale of all or substantially all of our assets or an unsolicited takeover attempt which is unfair to our stockholders. The summary of the provisions set forth below does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to our charter, our bylaws and the DGCL.

Our bylaws permit adoption of a stockholder rights plan, rights agreement or any other form of distribution to stockholders which is designed to or has the effect of making an acquisition of large holdings of our shares of common stock more difficult or expensive if, but only if, approved by a majority of the Board of Directors including a majority of independent directors. The bylaw requires that any such plan terminate within one year following the date of adoption unless the plan has been ratified by stockholders or extended by further votes of the Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors has no present intention to introduce additional measures that might have an anti-takeover effect; however, our Board of Directors expressly reserves the right to introduce these measures in the future.

Business Combinations. Section 203 of the DGCL restricts a wide range of transactions (“business combinations”) between a corporation and an interested stockholder. An “interested stockholder” is, generally, any person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 15% or more of the corporation’s outstanding voting stock. Business combinations are broadly defined to include (i) mergers or consolidations with, (ii) sales or other dispositions of more than 10% of the corporation’s assets to, (iii) certain transactions resulting in the issuance or transfer of any stock of the corporation or any subsidiary to, (iv) certain transactions resulting in an increase in the proportionate share of stock of the corporation or any subsidiary owned by, or (v) receipt of the benefit (other than proportionately as a stockholder) of any loans, advances or other financial benefits by, an interested stockholder. Section 203 provides that an interested stockholder may not engage in a business combination with the corporation for a period of three years from the time of becoming an interested stockholder unless (a) the Board of Directors approved either the business combination or the transaction which resulted in the person becoming an interested stockholder prior to the time that person became an interested stockholder; (b) upon consummation of the transaction which resulted in the person becoming an interested stockholder, that person owned at least 85% of the corporation’s voting stock (excluding, for purposes of determining the voting stock outstanding, but not the outstanding voting stock owned by the interested stockholder, shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers and shares owned by certain employee stock plans); or (c) the business combination is approved by the Board of Directors and authorized by the affirmative vote of at least 66²⁄₃% of the outstanding voting stock not owned by the interested stockholder. The restrictions on business combinations with interested stockholders contained in Section 203 of the DGCL do not apply to a corporation whose certificate of incorporation or bylaws contains a provision expressly electing not to be governed by the statute; however, neither our charter nor our bylaws contains a provision electing to “opt-out” of Section 203.

29

Advance Notice Requirements. Stockholders wishing to nominate persons for election to our Board of Directors at an annual meeting or to propose any business to be considered by our stockholders at an annual meeting must comply with certain advance notice and other requirements set forth in our bylaws. Likewise, if our Board of Directors has determined that directors shall be elected at a special meeting of stockholders, stockholders wishing to nominate persons for election to our Board of Directors at such special meeting must comply with certain advance notice and other requirements set forth in our bylaws.

Proxy Access. Our bylaws permit a qualified stockholder or group of stockholders to include up to a specified number of director nominees in our proxy materials for an annual meeting of stockholders. To qualify, the stockholders (or group of up to twenty stockholders) must have continuously owned for at least three years 3% or more of the total voting power of our outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote in the election of directors. The maximum number of stockholder nominees permitted under the proxy access provisions of our bylaws is generally the greater of (x) two or (y) 20% of the total number of our directors in office as of the last day on which notice of a nomination may be delivered or, if such amount is not a whole number, the closest whole number below 20%.

Notice of a nomination under our proxy access bylaw provisions must generally be submitted to our secretary at our principal executive offices no earlier than the close of business on the one hundred fiftieth day and no later than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth day prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting. The notice must contain certain information specified in our bylaws.

Special Meetings. Pursuant to the DGCL, a special meeting of stockholders may be called by the Board of Directors or by any other person authorized to do so in the charter or the bylaws. Our charter provides that special meetings of stockholders may only be called by our Board of Directors, the Chairman of our Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer, or, solely to the extent required by our bylaws, by the Secretary of the Company at the written request in proper form of one or more stockholders who have continuously held as stockholders of record “Net Long Shares” (as defined in the bylaws) representing in the aggregate at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the outstanding shares of our common stock for at least one year prior to the date such request is delivered to the Secretary.

Board Vacancies. Any vacancy on the Board of Directors, howsoever resulting, may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director. Any director elected to fill a vacancy shall hold office after the annual meeting at which his or her term is scheduled to end until his or her successor shall be elected and shall qualify, subject, however, to prior death, resignation, disqualification or removal from office.

Additional Authorized Shares of Capital Stock. The additional shares of authorized common stock and preferred stock available for issuance under our charter could be issued at such times, under such circumstances and with such terms and conditions as to impede a change in control.

DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS OF THE WALT DISNEY COMPANY

In this “Description of Warrants of The Walt Disney Company” section, when we refer to “The Walt Disney Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” or when we otherwise refer to ourselves, we mean The Walt Disney Company, excluding, unless otherwise expressly stated or the context requires, our subsidiaries (including TWDC Enterprises); all references to “warrants” refer only to warrants issued by The Walt Disney Company and not to any warrants issued by any subsidiary, including TWDC Enterprises.

We may issue, either separately or together with other securities, warrants for the purchase of any of the other types of securities that we may sell under this prospectus (excluding the guarantees).

The warrants will be issued under warrant agreements to be entered into between us and a bank or trust company, as warrant agent, all to be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to any or all warrants in respect of which this prospectus is being delivered. Copies of the form of agreement for each warrant, which we refer to collectively as “warrant agreements,” including the forms of certificates representing the warrants, which we refer to collectively as “warrant certificates” and reflecting the provisions to be included in such agreements that will be entered into with respect to the particular offerings of each type of warrant, have been or will be filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part or as exhibits to documents which have been or will be incorporated by reference in this prospectus.

The following description sets forth certain general terms and provisions of the warrants to which any prospectus supplement may relate. The particular terms of the warrants to which any prospectus supplement may relate and the extent, if any, to which the general provisions may apply to the warrants so offered will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. The following summary of certain provisions of the warrants, warrant agreements and warrant certificates does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by express reference to, all the provisions of the warrant agreements and warrant certificates, including the definitions therein of certain terms.

General

The prospectus supplement shall set forth the terms of the warrants in respect of which this prospectus is being delivered as well as the related warrant agreement and warrant certificates, including the following, where applicable:

• the principal amount of, or the number of securities, as the case may be, purchasable upon exercise of each warrant and the initial price at which the principal amount or number of securities, as the case may be, may be purchased upon such exercise;

• the designation and terms of the securities, if other than common stock, purchasable upon exercise thereof and of any securities, if other than common stock, with which the warrants are issued;

• the procedures and conditions relating to the exercise of the warrants;

• the date, if any, on and after which the warrants, and any securities with which the warrants are issued, will be separately transferable;

• whether the warrants represented by the warrant certificates will be issued in registered or bearer form, and, if registered, where they may be transferred and registered;

• call provisions of the warrants, if any;

• antidilution provisions of the warrants, if any; and

• any other material terms of the warrants.

Exercise of Warrants

Each warrant will entitle the holder to purchase for cash that principal amount of or number of securities, as the case may be, at the exercise price set forth in, or to be determined as set forth in, the applicable prospectus supplement relating to the warrants. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, warrants may be exercised at the corporate trust office of the warrant agent or any other office indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement at any time up to 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the expiration date set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. After 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the expiration date, unexercised warrants will become void. Upon receipt of payment and the warrant certificate properly completed and duly executed, we will, as soon as practicable, issue the securities purchasable upon exercise of the warrant. If less than all of the warrants represented by the warrant certificate are exercised, a new warrant certificate will be issued for the remaining amount of warrants.

No Rights of Security Holder Prior to Exercise

Prior to the exercise of their warrants, holders of warrants will not have any of the rights of holders of the securities purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants, and will not be entitled to:

• in the case of warrants to purchase debt securities, payments of principal of, premium, if any, or interest, if any, on the debt securities purchasable upon exercise; or

• in the case of warrants to purchase equity securities, the right to vote or to receive dividend payments or similar distributions on the securities purchasable upon exercise.

Exchange of Warrant Certificates

Warrant certificates will be exchangeable for new warrant certificates of different denominations at the corporate trust office of the warrant agent or any other office indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement.

32

DESCRIPTION OF PURCHASE CONTRACTS OF THE WALT DISNEY COMPANY

In this “Description of Purchase Contracts of The Walt Disney Company” section, when we refer to “The Walt Disney Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” or when we otherwise refer to ourselves, we mean The Walt Disney Company, excluding, unless otherwise expressly stated or the context requires, our subsidiaries (including TWDC Enterprises); all references to “purchase contracts” refer only to purchase contracts issued by The Walt Disney Company and not to any purchase contracts issued by any subsidiary, including TWDC Enterprises.

We may issue, from time to time, purchase contracts, including contracts obligating holders to purchase from us and us to sell to the holders, a specified principal amount of debt securities or a specified number of shares of common stock or preferred stock or any of the other securities that we may sell under this prospectus (excluding the guarantees) at a future date or dates. The consideration payable upon settlement of the purchase contracts may be fixed at the time the purchase contracts are issued or may be determined by a specific reference to a formula set forth in the purchase contracts. The purchase contracts may be issued separately or as part of units consisting of a purchase contract and other securities or obligations issued by us or third parties, including United States treasury securities, securing the holders’ obligations to purchase the relevant securities under the purchase contracts. The purchase contracts may require us to make periodic payments to the holders of the purchase contracts or units or vice versa, and the payments may be unsecured or prefunded on some basis. The purchase contracts may require holders to secure their obligations under the purchase contracts.

The prospectus supplement will describe, among other things, the material terms of any purchase contracts and of the securities being sold pursuant to such purchase contracts, a discussion, if appropriate, of any special United States federal income tax considerations applicable to the purchase contracts and any material provisions governing the purchase contracts that differ from those described above. The description in the prospectus supplement will not necessarily be complete and will be qualified in its entirety by reference to the purchase contracts, and, if applicable, collateral arrangements and depositary arrangements, relating to the purchase contracts.

DESCRIPTION OF UNITS OF THE WALT DISNEY COMPANY

In this “Description of Units of The Walt Disney Company” section, when we refer to “The Walt Disney Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” or when we otherwise refer to ourselves, we mean The Walt Disney Company, excluding, unless otherwise expressly stated or the context requires, our subsidiaries (including TWDC Enterprises); all references to “units” refer only to units issued by The Walt Disney Company and not to any units issued by any subsidiary, including TWDC Enterprises.

We may, from time to time, issue units comprised of one or more of the other securities that we may offer under this prospectus (excluding the guarantees), in any combination. Each unit will be issued so that the holder of the unit is also the holder of each security included in the unit. Thus, the holder of a unit will have the rights and obligations of a holder of each included security. The unit agreement under which a unit is issued may provide that the securities included in the unit may not be held or transferred separately at any time, or at any time before a specified date.

Any applicable prospectus supplement will describe, among other things:

• the material terms of the units and of the securities comprising the units, including whether and under what circumstances those securities may be held or transferred separately;

• any material provisions relating to the issuance, payment, settlement, transfer or exchange of the units or of the securities comprising the units;

• if appropriate, any special United States federal income tax considerations applicable to the units; and

• any material provisions of the governing unit agreement that differ from those described above.

The terms and conditions described under “Description of Debt Securities of The Walt Disney Company,” “Description of Preferred Stock of The Walt Disney Company,” “Description of Depositary Shares of The Walt Disney Company,” “Description of Common Stock of The Walt Disney Company,” “Description of Warrants of The Walt Disney Company” and “Description of Purchase Contracts of The Walt Disney Company” will apply to any debt securities, preferred stock, depositary shares, common stock, warrants or purchase contracts, as applicable, included in each unit, unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement.

DESCRIPTION OF THE TWDC ENTERPRISES GUARANTEE

See above “Description of Debt Securities of The Walt Disney Company—The TWDC Enterprises Guarantee.”

35

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We may sell the securities to one or more underwriters for public offering and sale by them or may sell the securities to investors through agents or dealers. Any underwriter, dealer or agent involved in the offer and sale of the securities will be named in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Securities offered hereby may also be issued upon conversion, exercise or exchange of other securities offered hereby. We also reserve the right to sell securities directly to investors on our own behalf in those jurisdictions where we are authorized to do so. In this case, no underwriters, dealers or agents would be involved.

Underwriters may offer and sell the securities at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, or from time to time at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. We also may, from time to time, authorize underwriters acting as our agents to offer and sell the securities upon the terms and conditions set forth in any prospectus supplement. The consideration for these securities may be cash or another form negotiated by the parties. In connection with the sale of the securities, underwriters may be deemed to have received compensation from us in the form of underwriting discounts or commissions and may also receive commissions from purchasers of the securities for whom they may act as agent.

If a dealer is utilized in the sale of the securities in respect of which this prospectus is delivered, we may sell the securities to the dealer, as principal. The dealer may then resell the securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by the dealer at the time of resale. If we sell securities to underwriters, we will execute an underwriting agreement with them at the time of sale. The debt securities, together with any guarantees thereof, may be offered to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by managing underwriters or directly by one or more investment banking firms or others, as designated. Unless the applicable prospectus supplement specifies otherwise, the obligations of the underwriters or agents to purchase the offered debt securities will be subject to some conditions. The underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the offered debt securities if any of the offered debt securities are purchased. Any initial public offering price and any underwriting commissions or other items constituting underwriters’ compensation may be changed from time to time.

Any underwriting compensation paid by us to underwriters or agents in connection with the offering of the securities, and any discounts, concessions or commissions allowed by underwriters to participating dealers, will be set forth in an applicable prospectus supplement.

Underwriters, dealers and agents participating in the distribution of the securities may be deemed to be underwriters under the Securities Act, and any discounts and commissions received by them and any profit realized by them on resale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Underwriters, dealers and agents may be entitled under agreements with us to indemnification against and contribution toward certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to reimbursement by us for certain expenses.

In connection with underwritten offerings of securities, underwriters may over-allot or effect transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the offered securities at levels above those that might otherwise prevail in the open market, including by entering stabilizing bids, effecting syndicate covering transactions or imposing penalty bids, each of which is described below.

• A stabilizing bid means the placing of any bid, or the effecting of any purchase, for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of a security.

• A syndicate covering transaction means the placing of any bid on behalf of the underwriting syndicate or the effecting of any purchase to reduce a short position created in connection with the offering.

• A penalty bid means an arrangement that permits the managing underwriter to reclaim a selling concession from a syndicate member in connection with the offering when offered securities originally sold by the syndicate member are purchased in syndicate covering transactions.

36

These transactions may be effected on the New York Stock Exchange (if applicable), in the over-the-counter market or otherwise. Underwriters are not required to engage in any of these activities, or to continue the activities if commenced.

If so indicated in an applicable prospectus supplement, we may authorize dealers acting as our agents to solicit offers by institutions to purchase the securities from us at the public offering price set forth in the prospectus supplement pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on the date or dates stated in the prospectus supplement. Each delayed delivery contract will be for an amount not less than, and the aggregate principal amount or offering price of the securities sold pursuant to delayed delivery contracts will not be less nor more than, the respective amounts stated in the prospectus supplement. Institutions with whom delayed delivery contracts, when authorized, may be entered into include commercial and savings banks, insurance companies, pension funds, investment companies, educational and charitable institutions and other institutions, but will in all cases be subject to approval by us.

The securities may also be offered and sold, if so indicated in the prospectus supplement, in connection with a remarketing upon their purchase, in accordance with a redemption or repayment pursuant to their terms, or otherwise, by one or more firms (“remarketing firms”), acting as principals for their own accounts or as agents for us. Any remarketing firm will be identified and the terms of its agreement, if any, with us and its compensation will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. Remarketing firms may be deemed to be underwriters in connection with the securities remarketed thereby. Remarketing firms may be entitled under agreements which may be entered into with us to indemnification by us against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

We may enter into derivative transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. If the applicable prospectus supplement indicates, in connection with those derivatives, the third parties may sell securities covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, including in short sale transactions. If so, the third party may use securities pledged by us or borrowed from us or others to settle those sales or to close out any open borrowings of stock, and may use securities received from us in settlement of those derivatives to close out any related open borrowings of stock. The third parties in such sale transactions will be underwriters and, if not identified in this prospectus, will be identified in the applicable prospectus supplement (or a post-effective amendment).

The securities may or may not be listed on a national securities exchange or a foreign securities exchange. Securities offered may be a new issue of securities with no established trading market. Any underwriters to whom or agents through whom these securities are sold by us for public offering and sale may make a market in these securities, but such underwriters or agents will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. No assurance can be given as to the liquidity of or the trading market for any such securities.

One or more of the underwriters, agents or dealers, and/or one or more of their respective affiliates, may be a lender under our credit agreements and may provide other commercial banking, investment banking and other services to us and/or our subsidiaries and affiliates in the ordinary course of business.
