SUMMARY

This summary highlights information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus.

Our Company

We are a communications company providing services predominantly to rural areas and small and medium-sized towns and cities in the U.S. We generated revenues of approximately $5.2 billion for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 and approximately $2.5 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2012. We operate in 27 states with approximately 5.1 million access lines, 1.8 million broadband subscribers and 0.6 million video subscribers as of June 30, 2012.

Incorporated in November 1935, we are the fourth largest incumbent local exchange carrier in the United States based on number of access lines. Our business is with both residential and business customers and we provide the “last mile” of telecommunications services to customers in these markets.

We offer a broad portfolio of high-quality communications services for residential and business customers in each of our markets. These include services traditionally associated with local telephone companies, as well as other services such as long distance, Internet access, broadband-enabled services and video services. We offer these services both á la carte and, increasingly, as bundled packages which are purposely designed to simplify customer purchasing decisions and to provide the customer with pricing discounts. We also offer incentives and promotions such as gifts to influence customers to purchase or retain certain services. We also enhance customer retention by offering one-, two- and three-year price protection plans under which customers commit to a term in exchange for predictable pricing or other incentives and promotions. We are staffed locally with skilled technicians and supervisory personnel, which enables us to efficiently and reliably provide an array of communications services to meet our customers’ needs. Our call center operations and field technicians are staffed with 100% U.S.-based personnel.

Our mission is to be the leader in providing communications services to residential and business customers in our markets. We are committed to delivering innovative and reliable products and solutions with an emphasis on convenience, service and customer satisfaction. We believe that our local management structure, 100% U.S.-based customer service and innovative product positioning will continue to differentiate us from our competitors in the markets in which we compete.

The Offering

The summary below describes the principal terms of the notes. Certain of the terms and conditions described below are subject to important limitations and exceptions. The sections entitled “Description of the Notes” in this prospectus supplement and “Description of Debt Securities” in the accompanying prospectus contain more detailed descriptions of the terms and conditions of the notes and the indenture governing the notes. In this subsection, “we,” “us” and “our” refer only to Frontier Communications Corporation and not to any of our subsidiaries.

Issuer Frontier Communications Corporation

Notes Offered $600,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 7.125% Senior Notes due 2023.

Maturity Date January 15, 2023.

Interest We will make interest payments on the notes semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning on January 15, 2013. Interest will accrue from August 15, 2012.

Ranking The notes will be our senior unsecured obligations and will rank:

• equal in right of payment to all of our existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness;

• effectively junior to all of our existing and future senior secured indebtedness (all of which is currently at our subsidiaries) to the extent of the assets securing such indebtedness;

• effectively junior to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities and commitments of our subsidiaries (including trade payables and capital lease obligations); and

• senior in right of payment to all of our existing and future subordinated indebtedness, if any.

As of June 30, 2012, we and our subsidiaries had approximately $8.3 billion of indebtedness. At such date, the notes would have ranked effectively junior to (i) approximately $9.5 million of senior secured indebtedness to the extent of the assets securing such indebtedness (all of which was at our subsidiaries) and (ii) approximately $1,058.6 million of liabilities of our subsidiaries, including approximately $295.5 million of indebtedness (including the secured indebtedness) and $57.1 million with respect to a sale and leaseback transaction accounted for as a secured financing obligation and excluding deferred income tax liabilities and intercompany liabilities.

S-2

The indenture governing the notes will not restrict the amount of debt we may incur, including senior debt, which will be pari passu with the notes, except that the indenture will limit, subject to important qualifications, the amount of debt our subsidiaries may incur. The notes will rank effectively junior to any existing and such additional subsidiary debt.

Optional Redemption At any time, we may redeem some or all of the notes by paying a specified “make-whole” premium set forth under “Description of the Notes—Optional Redemption.”

Covenants We will issue the notes under an indenture and supplemental indenture, which we refer to collectively as “the indenture,” between us and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee. The indenture will include covenants that limit our ability and each of our subsidiaries’ ability to:

• incur indebtedness at our subsidiaries;

• create liens; and

• merge or consolidate with other companies.

These covenants are subject to important exceptions and qualifications. In addition, we and each of our subsidiaries will not be subject to the covenant described under “Description of the Notes—Covenants—Limitation on Subsidiary Indebtedness,” including any limitation on indebtedness of subsidiaries, at any time after the notes achieve investment grade ratings by S&P and Moody’s. See “Description of the Notes—Termination of Certain Covenants.”

Change of Control Following a change of control and ratings decline (as defined herein), we will be required to offer to purchase all of the notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of their respective principal amounts, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase. See “Description of the Notes—Repurchase of Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event.”

Absence of Established Market for the Notes The notes are a new issue of securities. There is currently no established trading market for the notes, and we do not intend to apply for the notes to be listed on any securities exchange or to arrange for any quotation system to quote them. The underwriters have advised us that they intend to make a market in the notes. The underwriters are not obligated, however, to make a market in the notes and any such market-making may be discontinued by the underwriters in their discretion at any time without notice.

S-3

Accordingly, there can be no assurance as to the development or liquidity of any market for the notes. See “Underwriting.”

Use of Proceeds The net proceeds from the offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and before deducting estimated expenses, will be approximately $588.8 million. We will use the net proceeds from the sale of the notes to repurchase or retire our indebtedness or the indebtedness of our subsidiaries or for general corporate purposes. See “Use of Proceeds.”

Risk Factors Your investment in the notes will involve risks. You should consider carefully all of the information set forth in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, any free writing prospectus with respect to this offering filed by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the documents incorporated by reference herein and, in particular, you should evaluate the risks in this prospectus supplement under “Supplemental Risk Factors” and in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2012, each of which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, before deciding whether to purchase any notes in this offering.

Governing Law The notes will be governed by the laws of the State of New York.

Trustee The Bank of New York Mellon.

(1) Includes capital expenditures related to integration activities of $27,940 and $18,986 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $76,478, $96,991 and $24,999 for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

(2) Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure which we define as operating income plus depreciation and amortization, as adjusted to add back acquisition and integration costs, non-cash pension/OPEB costs and severance and early retirement costs. A reconciliation of the differences between Adjusted EBITDA and the most comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP is included in the table that follows. Adjusted EBITDA is, by definition, not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and is not an alternative to operating income or net income reflected in the statement of operations or to cash flow, as reflected in the statement of cash flows, and it is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund all cash needs. Adjusted EBITDA as used by us may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

We believe that presentation of Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors regarding our financial condition and results of operations because Adjusted EBITDA, when used in conjunction with related GAAP financial measures, (i) provides a more comprehensive view of our core operations and ability to generate cash flow, (ii) provides investors with the financial analytical framework upon which management bases financial, operational, compensation and planning decisions and (iii) presents measurements that investors and rating agencies have indicated to management are useful to them in assessing us and our results of operations.

Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to (i) assist in analyzing our underlying financial performance from period to period, (ii) evaluate the financial performance of our business units, (iii) analyze and evaluate strategic and operational decisions, (iv) establish criteria for compensation decisions, and (v) assist management in understanding our ability to generate cash flow and, as a result, to plan for future capital and operational decisions. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with related GAAP financial measures. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is meaningful and useful for the reasons outlined above.

While we utilize Adjusted EBITDA in managing and analyzing our business and financial condition and believe it is useful to management and to investors for the reasons described above, Adjusted EBITDA has certain shortcomings. Management compensates for the shortcomings of Adjusted EBITDA by utilizing it in conjunction with comparable GAAP financial measures. The information presented in this section should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus.

The following are the components of Adjusted EBITDA for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2011 and for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

Ratio of Earnings to Fixed Charges

The following table contains our consolidated ratio of earnings to fixed charges for the periods indicated. For purposes of this ratio, earnings consist of pre-tax income from continuing operations before income (loss) from equity investees, and after deductions for income attributable to the noncontrolling interest in a partnership, plus fixed charges (except for interest capitalized and preferred dividend requirements of consolidated subsidiaries) and distributed income of equity investees. Fixed charges consist of interest expensed and capitalized, plus the portion of rent expense under operating leases deemed to be representative of interest.

The consolidated ratios of earnings to fixed charges, adjusted to exclude losses on early extinguishment of debt or exchanges of debt were 1.42 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 1.61, 1.78 and 1.91 for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

SUPPLEMENTAL RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the risks described below in addition to the risks described in “Risk Factors” in the accompanying prospectus, as well as in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2012, each of which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, as well as the other information contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, before investing in the notes. See “Where You Can Find More Information” and “Incorporation by Reference.” You could lose part or all of your investment.

Substantial debt and debt service obligations may adversely affect us.

We have a significant amount of indebtedness, which amounted to approximately $8.3 billion at June 30, 2012. We also have a $750.0 million revolving credit facility and, as of June 30, 2012, we had not made any borrowings utilizing this facility. We may also obtain additional long-term debt and working capital lines of credit to meet future financing needs, subject to certain restrictions under the terms of our existing indebtedness, which would increase our total debt. Although our existing debt is substantial, the indenture under which the notes will be issued will still permit us to incur additional debt. If we were to incur additional indebtedness, the risks that you face as a result of our substantial indebtedness could be magnified.

The potential significant negative consequences on our financial condition and results of operations that could result from our substantial debt include:

• limitations on our ability to obtain additional debt or equity financing;

• instances in which we are unable to meet the financial covenants contained in our debt agreements or to generate cash sufficient to make required debt payments, which circumstances have the potential of accelerating the maturity of some or all of our outstanding indebtedness;

• the allocation of a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to service our debt, thus reducing the amount of our cash flow available for other purposes, including operating costs, capital expenditures, debt reduction and dividends that could improve our competitive position, results of operations or stock price;

• requiring us to sell debt or equity securities or to sell some of our core assets, possibly on unfavorable terms, to meet payment obligations;

• compromising our flexibility to plan for, or react to, competitive challenges in our business and the communications industry; and

• the possibility of our being put at a competitive disadvantage with competitors who do not have as much debt as us, and competitors who may be in a more favorable position to access additional capital resources.

In addition, our senior notes are rated below “investment grade” by independent ratings agencies. This can result in higher borrowing costs for us. We cannot assure you that these rating agencies will not lower our current debt ratings, if in the rating agencies’ judgment, such an action is appropriate. A lowering of a rating may further increase our future borrowing costs and reduce our access to capital.

Frontier is a holding company and, as a result, we rely on the receipt of funds from our subsidiaries in order to meet our cash needs and service our indebtedness, including the notes. The notes will be effectively subordinated to liabilities of our subsidiaries.

Frontier is a holding company and our principal assets consist of the shares of capital stock or other equity instruments of our subsidiaries. As a holding company without independent

means of generating operating revenues, we depend on dividends, distributions and other payments from our subsidiaries to fund our obligations, including those arising under the notes, and meet our cash needs. We cannot assure you that the operating results of our subsidiaries at any given time will be sufficient to make dividends, distributions or other payments to us in order to allow us to make payments on the notes. In addition, the payment of these dividends, distributions and other payments, as well as other transfers of assets, between our subsidiaries and from our subsidiaries to us may be subject to legal, regulatory or contractual restrictions. Some state regulators have imposed and others may consider imposing on regulated companies, including us, cash management practices that could limit the ability of such regulated companies to transfer cash between subsidiaries or to the parent company. While none of the existing state regulations materially affect our cash management, any changes to the existing regulations or imposition of new regulations or restrictions may materially adversely affect our ability to transfer cash within our consolidated companies.

You will not have any claim as a creditor against our subsidiaries. Accordingly, all obligations of our subsidiaries will have to be satisfied before any of the assets of such subsidiaries would be available for distribution, upon a liquidation or otherwise. As of June 30, 2012, our subsidiaries had outstanding approximately $1,058.6 million of total liabilities, including approximately $295.5 million of indebtedness (including $9.5 million of secured indebtedness) and $57.1 million with respect to a sale and leaseback transaction accounted for as a secured financing obligation and excluding deferred income tax liabilities and intercompany liabilities. Although the indenture governing the notes will limit the indebtedness our subsidiaries may incur, our subsidiaries will be able to incur a substantial amount of additional debt, including without limitation Acquired Indebtedness (as defined in the indenture governing the notes). See “Description of the Notes—Covenants—Limitations on Subsidiary Indebtedness.” Moreover, the indenture governing the notes will provide that this covenant would no longer be applicable to us from and after the first date on which the notes were rated “investment grade.” Termination of this covenant would allow us to engage in certain transactions that would not be permitted while this covenant was in effect even if the notes are subsequently downgraded below investment grade. See “Description of the Notes—Termination of Certain Covenants.”

There will be no cross-default or cross-acceleration provisions in the indenture governing the notes, which could affect our ability to satisfy our obligations under the notes.

The indenture governing the notes will not contain a cross-default or cross-acceleration provision so holders of the notes will not have the right to accelerate indebtedness represented by the notes in the event of (1) a default by us or any of our subsidiaries under any other indebtedness of our company or our subsidiaries, including under our credit facilities, or (2) a bankruptcy or similar event affecting any of our subsidiaries. If such events occur, our obligations and our subsidiaries’ obligations, as applicable, will have to be satisfied first, and the holders of the notes will have no rights to participate in any distributions or payments. Consequently, we might not have sufficient funds or resources following such events to satisfy our obligations, including our obligations under the notes.

The notes are unsecured and will effectively be subordinated to any secured indebtedness.

The notes are unsecured and therefore will be effectively subordinated to any of our existing and future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. In the event of a bankruptcy or similar proceeding, the assets that serve as collateral for any secured indebtedness will be available to satisfy the obligations under the secured indebtedness before any payments are made on the notes. As of June 30, 2012, we had approximately $9.5 million of secured indebtedness (all of which was at our subsidiaries). The

S-9

indenture governing the notes will permit us, subject to specified limitations, to incur a substantial amount of additional secured debt, including without limitation Acquired Indebtedness (as defined in the indenture governing the notes).

The agreements governing our debt, including the notes and our credit facilities, contain various covenants that impose restrictions on us that may affect our ability to operate our business and to make payments on the notes.

The indenture governing the notes will contain covenants that, among other things, limit our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to:

• incur indebtedness at our subsidiaries;

• create liens; and

• merge or consolidate with other companies.

In addition, our credit facilities require us to comply with specified covenants, including financial ratios. Any future indebtedness may also require us to comply with similar covenants. These restrictions on our ability to operate our business could seriously harm our business by, among other things, limiting our ability to take advantage of financings, mergers, acquisitions and other corporate opportunities.

Various risks, uncertainties and events beyond our control could affect our ability to comply with these covenants. Failure to comply with any of the covenants in our existing or future financing agreements could result in a default under those agreements and under other agreements containing cross-default provisions. A default would permit lenders to accelerate the maturity for the debt under these agreements and to foreclose upon any collateral securing the debt. Under these circumstances, we might not have sufficient funds or other resources to satisfy all of our obligations, including our obligations under the notes. In addition, the limitations imposed by financing agreements on our ability to incur additional debt and to take other actions might significantly impair our ability to obtain other financing.

If an active trading market does not develop for the notes, you may be unable to sell the notes or to sell them at a price you deem sufficient.

The notes are new issues of securities for which there is currently no public trading market. We do not intend to list the notes on any national securities exchange or automated quotation system. In addition, the liquidity of any trading market for the notes, and the market price quoted for the notes, may be adversely affected by changes in the overall market for those securities and by changes in our financial performance or prospects or in the prospects of telecommunications companies generally. We cannot give you any assurance as to:

• the liquidity of any trading market that may develop;

• the ability of holders to sell their notes; or

• the price at which holders would be able to sell their notes.

Even if a trading market develops, the notes may trade at higher or lower prices than the principal amount or purchase price depending on many factors, including:

• prevailing interest rates;

• the number of holders of the notes;

• the interest of securities dealers in making a market for such notes;

S-10

• the market for similar notes; and

• our financial performance.

In addition, we understand that the underwriters presently intend to make a market in the notes. However, they are not obligated to do so and may discontinue making a market in the notes at any time without notice. As a result, we cannot assure you that an active trading market will develop for the notes. If no active trading market develops, the price at which you may be able to sell notes, if at all, may be less than the price you pay for them.

We may not have sufficient funds to repurchase the notes upon a change of control, and certain strategic transactions may not constitute a change of control.

The terms of the notes will require us to make an offer to repurchase the notes upon the occurrence of a change of control and ratings decline (as defined herein) at a purchase price equal to 101% of the respective principal amount of the notes plus accrued interest to the date of the purchase. It is possible that we will not have sufficient funds at the time of the change of control to make the required repurchase of notes and will be required to obtain third party financing to do so. We may not be able to obtain this financing on commercially reasonable terms, or on terms acceptable to us, or at all. In addition, the occurrence of certain change of control events may constitute an event of default under the terms of our credit facilities. Such an event of default would entitle the lenders under our credit facilities to, among other things, cause all outstanding debt thereunder to become due and payable.

We continuously evaluate and may in the future enter into strategic transactions. Any such transaction could happen at any time, could be material to our business and could take any number of forms, including, for example, an acquisition, merger or a sale of all or substantially all of our assets.

We currently have no agreement or understanding regarding, and are not in active negotiations with respect to, any material strategic transaction, although as part of our strategy we expect to continue to evaluate and may enter into material strategic transactions in the future. Further, subject to limitations in the indenture governing the notes and a tax sharing agreement, we could, in the future, enter into certain transactions, including acquisitions, refinancings, other recapitalizations or material strategic transactions, that would not result in a change of control or a change of control triggering event within the meaning of the indenture and would not otherwise be prohibited by the covenants and provisions of the indenture. Such transactions could significantly increase the amount of our indebtedness outstanding at such time (including secured debt or subsidiary debt that would be effectively senior to the notes) or otherwise affect our capital structure or credit ratings.

S-11

USE OF PROCEEDS

The net proceeds from the offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and before deducting estimated expenses, will be approximately $588.8 million. We will use the net proceeds from the sale of the notes to repurchase or retire our indebtedness or the indebtedness of our subsidiaries or for general corporate purposes.

Pending the application of the net proceeds, we may invest such net proceeds in short-term investment grade obligations.

DESCRIPTION OF OTHER INDEBTEDNESS

The following is a summary of certain of our outstanding indebtedness. To the extent this summary contains descriptions of our credit facilities, our senior notes and debentures and the indentures governing them, the descriptions do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to those and related documents. See “Where you Can Find More Information” and “Incorporation by Reference.”

Our Credit Facilities

We have a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with CoBank, ACB, as administrative agent, lead arranger and a lender, and the other lenders party thereto, for a $575 million senior unsecured term loan facility with a final maturity of October 14, 2016. The entire amount was drawn upon execution of the Credit Agreement in October 2011. Repayment of the outstanding principal balance is made in quarterly installments in the amount of $14,375,000, which commenced on March 31, 2012, with the remaining outstanding principal balance to be repaid on the final maturity date. As of June 30, 2012, we had $546.3 million outstanding under the Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest based on the margins over the Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) or LIBOR, at our election. Interest rate margins under the facility (ranging from 0.875% to 2.875% for Base Rate borrowings and 1.875% to 3.875% for LIBOR borrowings) are subject to adjustments based on our Total Leverage Ratio, as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement. The initial pricing on this facility is LIBOR plus 2.875% through September 30, 2012. The maximum permitted leverage ratio is 4.5 times.

We also have a $750.0 million revolving credit facility. As of June 30, 2012, we had not made any borrowings utilizing this facility. The terms of the credit facility are set forth in the credit agreement, dated as of March 23, 2010, among us, the Lenders party thereto, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”). Associated facility fees under the credit facility will vary from time to time depending on our credit rating (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement) and were 0.625% per annum as of June 30, 2012. The credit facility is scheduled to terminate on January 1, 2014. During the term of the credit facility, we may borrow, repay and reborrow funds, and may obtain letters of credit, subject to customary borrowing conditions. Loans under the credit facility will bear interest based on the alternate base rate or the adjusted LIBOR rate (each as determined in the Revolving Credit Agreement), at our election, plus a margin specified in the Revolving Credit Agreement based on our credit rating. Letters of credit issued under the credit facility will also be subject to fees that vary depending on our credit rating. The credit facility will be available for general corporate purposes but may not be used to fund dividend payments.

We also have a $100.0 million unsecured letter of credit facility. The terms of the letter of credit facility are set forth in a credit agreement, dated as of September 8, 2010, among us, the Lenders party thereto, and Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch, as Administrative Agent and Issuing Bank (the “Letter of Credit Agreement”). An initial letter of credit for $190.0 million was issued to the West Virginia Public Service Commission to guarantee certain of our capital investment commitments in West Virginia in connection with the Transaction. The initial commitments under the Letter of Credit Agreement expired on September 20, 2011, with Deutsche Bank AB, New York Branch exercising its option to extend $100.0 million of the commitments to September 20, 2012. We are required to pay an annual facility fee on the available commitment, regardless of usage. The covenants binding on us under the terms of the Letter of Credit Agreement are substantially similar to those in our other credit facilities, including limitations on liens, substantial asset sales and mergers, subject to customary exceptions and thresholds.

Our Notes and Debentures

At June 30, 2012, our notes and debentures represented $7.7 billion of our approximately $8.3 billion of indebtedness outstanding. At such date, we had outstanding the following notes and debentures:

• $522.7 million in principal amount of 6.250% Senior Notes due 2013;

• $200.0 million in principal amount of 8.250% Senior Notes due 2014;

• $300.0 million in principal amount of 6.625% Senior Notes due 2015;

• $36.0 million in principal amount of 8.050% Subsidiary Senior Notes due 2012; and

• $458.9 million in principal amount of Debentures with weighted average interest rates of 7.144% and maturities ranging from 2025-2046.

We may from time to time repurchase our debt in the open market, through tender offers, exchanges of debt securities, by exercising rights to call or in privately negotiated transactions. We may also refinance existing debt or exchange existing debt for newly issued debt obligations.

There are no scheduled principal payments required on any of these notes or debentures until their final maturities.

Our outstanding senior notes and debentures are senior, unsecured obligations that rank pari passu in right of payment with all of our existing and future senior indebtedness and rank senior in right of payment to all of our existing and future subordinated indebtedness. None of our outstanding senior notes or debentures are guaranteed by our subsidiaries.

Certain of our senior note indentures restrict our subsidiaries’ ability to incur additional indebtedness. Please read “ Supplemental Risk Factors—The agreements governing our debt, including the notes and our credit facilities, contain various covenants that impose restrictions on us that may affect our ability to operate our business and to make payments on the notes.”

S-15

DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

Frontier Communications Corporation will issue the notes under the fourth supplemental indenture (the “supplemental indenture”) to be dated the date the notes are first issued, supplementing the indenture dated as of April 9, 2009, between us and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “base indenture” and, as supplemented by the supplemental indenture, the “indenture”). The terms of the notes include those stated in the supplemental indenture and the indenture and those made part of the indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939. A copy of the indenture is available for inspection at the office of the trustee.

The following description is a summary of the terms of the notes. The descriptions in this prospectus supplement contain a summary of certain terms of the notes, the supplemental indenture and the base indenture, but do not purport to be complete and are qualified by reference to those instruments. In this section, “we,” “our,” “us” and “Frontier” refer only to Frontier Communications Corporation and not to any of our subsidiaries. Certain terms used in this description are defined under the subheading “—Certain Definitions.”

General

We are issuing $600,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our notes in this offering.

The notes will be issued in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. We may offer additional series of debt securities from time to time under the indenture in as many distinct series as we may determine. All debt securities issued under the indenture will be our senior unsecured obligations and will rank equal in right of payment to the notes. The terms and conditions of each series of debt securities, including the notes, will be set forth in those debt securities and in the applicable supplemental indenture. We may, without the consent of the holders of notes, issue additional notes of a series, including the notes, having the same ranking, interest rate, maturity and other terms as the notes of that series previously issued. Any additional notes having such same terms, together with the notes of that series previously issued, will constitute a single series of notes issued under the indenture.

The notes will mature on January 15, 2023. Interest on the notes will be payable on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning on January 15, 2013 to the persons in whose names the notes are registered on the preceding January 1 and July 1, respectively. Interest on the notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

We will pay principal and interest on the notes, register the transfer of the notes and exchange the notes at our office or agency maintained for that purpose, which initially will be the corporate trust office of the trustee located at 101 Barclay Street, Floor 8 West, New York, New York 10286, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration. So long as the notes are represented by global debt securities, the interest payable on the notes will be paid to Cede & Co, the nominee of the depositary, or its registered assigns as the registered owner of such global debt securities, by wire transfer of immediately available funds on each of the applicable interest payment dates. If any of the notes are no longer represented by a global debt security, we have the option to pay interest by check mailed to the address of the person entitled to the interest. No service charge will be made for any transfer or exchange of notes, but we may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable.

If the trustee shall not be the registrar for the notes at any time, we will furnish or cause to be furnished to the trustee a list in such form as the trustee may reasonably require of the names of the holders of the notes of such series (a) semi-annually and (b) at such other times as the trustee may request in writing, within thirty days after receipt of any such request.

S-16

The notes will be our senior unsecured obligations and will rank:

• equal in right of payment to all of our existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness;

• effectively junior to all of our existing and future senior secured indebtedness (all of which is currently at our subsidiaries) to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness;

• effectively junior to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities and commitments of our subsidiaries (including trade payables and capital lease obligations); and

• senior in right of payment to all of our existing and future subordinated indebtedness, if any.

As of June 30, 2012, we and our subsidiaries had approximately $8.3 billion of indebtedness. At such date, the notes would have ranked effectively junior to (i) approximately $9.5 million of senior secured indebtedness to the extent of the assets securing such indebtedness (all of which was at our subsidiaries) and (ii) approximately $1,058.6 million of liabilities of our subsidiaries, including approximately $295.5 million of indebtedness (including the secured indebtedness) and $57.1 million with respect to a sale and leaseback transaction accounted for as a secured financing obligation and excluding deferred income tax liabilities and intercompany liabilities.

Optional Redemption

The notes will be redeemable at Frontier’s election, in whole or in part, at any time at a redemption price equal to the greater of:

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

(2) as determined by an Independent Investment Banker, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the notes to be redeemed (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to the date of redemption) discounted to the redemption date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate, plus 50 basis points

plus, in either of the above cases, accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption on the notes to be redeemed.

If the optional redemption date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, the accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid to the person in whose name the note is registered at the close of business on such interest record date.

Frontier will mail a notice of redemption at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of the securities to be redeemed.

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

If less than all of the notes are to be redeemed, selection of the notes for redemption will be made by the trustee:

(1) if the notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of such national securities exchange; or

S-17

(2) if the notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis (subject to the procedures of The Depository Trust Company) or, to the extent a pro rata basis is not permitted, in such manner as the trustee shall deem to be fair and appropriate.

No note of $2,000 in principal amount or less shall be redeemed in part. If any note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption relating to such note will state the portion of the principal amount to be redeemed. A new note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion will be issued upon cancellation of the original note.

The notes are not subject to a sinking fund.

Repurchase of Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event

If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs with respect to the notes, each holder of notes will have the right to require Frontier to repurchase all or any part of that holder’s notes pursuant to a Change of Control offer on the terms set forth in the supplemental indenture. In the Change of Control offer, Frontier will offer a Change of Control payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the notes to the applicable date of repurchase. Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, if Frontier had not, prior to the Change of Control Triggering Event, sent a redemption notice for all the notes in connection with an optional redemption permitted by the supplemental indenture, Frontier will mail a notice to each registered holder briefly describing the transaction or transactions that constitute a Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase notes on the date specified in such notice (the “Change of Control Payment Date”) pursuant to the procedures required by the supplemental indenture and described in such notice.

Frontier will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of the supplemental indenture, Frontier will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of the supplemental indenture by virtue of such conflict.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, Frontier will, to the extent lawful:

(1) accept for payment all notes or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control offer;

(2) deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control payment in respect of all notes or portions thereof properly tendered; and

(3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the trustee the notes so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of notes or portions thereof being purchased by Frontier.

The paying agent will promptly mail to each registered holder of notes so tendered the Change of Control Payment for such notes, and the trustee will promptly authenticate and mail, or cause to be transferred by book entry, to each holder a new note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the notes surrendered, if any; provided that each such new note will

S-18

be in a principal amount of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Any note so accepted for payment will cease to accrue interest on and after the Change of Control Payment Date.

Frontier will not be required to make a Change of Control offer upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes the Change of Control offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the supplemental indenture or indenture applicable to a Change of Control offer made by Frontier and purchases all notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control offer.

A Change of Control offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, and conditional upon the occurrence of such Change of Control Triggering Event, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control Triggering Event at the time of making the Change of Control offer.

There can be no assurance that Frontier will have sufficient funds available at the time of any Change of Control Triggering Event to consummate a Change of Control offer for all notes then outstanding at a purchase price equal to 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Change of Control Payment Date.

Covenants

Limitation on Subsidiary Indebtedness

Frontier will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to Incur any Indebtedness, other than:

(A) Indebtedness of any Subsidiary of Frontier consisting of (i) Guarantees by such Subsidiary of Indebtedness of Frontier under Credit Facilities or (ii) Liens granted by such Subsidiary to secure such Guarantee or such Indebtedness of Frontier, in an aggregate principal amount (without duplication), when taken together with the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness secured by Liens on the property or assets (which includes capital stock) of Frontier and its Subsidiaries Incurred pursuant to the second sentence and clause (1) of the first paragraph of “—Limitations on Liens” covenant below, not to exceed the Permitted Amount at the time of Incurrence of such Guarantee or Lien;

(B) Indebtedness of any Designated Subsidiary or any Subsidiary of such Designated Subsidiary, provided that, with respect to this clause (B) only, no portion of such Indebtedness is recourse to Frontier or any of its other Subsidiaries;

(C) Acquired Indebtedness;

(D) Indebtedness existing on the Issue Date of any Subsidiary of Frontier;

(E) Indebtedness of any Subsidiary of Frontier issued in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used or will be used to extend, refinance, renew, replace, defease or refund, other Indebtedness that was permitted by the supplemental indenture to be Incurred under clause (C) or (D) of this paragraph; or

(F) Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount, at anytime outstanding, not to exceed $250.0 million.

The maximum amount of Indebtedness that may be Incurred pursuant to this “Limitation on Subsidiary Indebtedness” covenant will not be deemed to be exceeded with respect to any outstanding Indebtedness due solely to the result of fluctuations in the exchange rates of currencies.

S-19

Limitation on Liens

Frontier will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, allow any Lien on any of Frontier’s or its Subsidiaries’ property or assets (which includes capital stock) securing Indebtedness, unless the Lien secures the notes equally and ratably with, or prior to, any such Indebtedness secured by such Lien, for so long as such other Indebtedness is so secured, subject to certain exceptions described below. The supplemental indenture provides for an exception from this limitation for secured debt which Frontier or its Subsidiaries may issue, assume, guarantee or permit to exist up to 10% of the value of the consolidated total assets of Frontier as shown on, or computed from, the most recent quarterly or annual balance sheet prepared in accordance with GAAP and filed by Frontier with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or provided to the trustee. In addition, this restriction will not take into account or apply to:

(1) Liens securing Indebtedness and other obligations under any senior bank financing of Frontier or any of its Subsidiaries, including Guarantees of Indebtedness and other obligations under such senior bank financings, in an amount of up to 20% of the sum of the total consolidated current assets and net property, plant and equipment of Frontier as shown on, or computed from, the most recent quarterly or annual balance sheet prepared in accordance with GAAP and filed by Frontier with the SEC or provided to the trustee;

(2) Liens existing on the Issue Date;

(3) Liens on property that exist when Frontier acquires the property that secure payment of the purchase price of the property;

(4) Liens securing debt that any Subsidiary of Frontier owes to Frontier or to any other Subsidiary of Frontier;

(5) Liens on property, shares of stock or indebtedness of any entity that exists when (a) it becomes a Subsidiary of Frontier, (b) it is merged into or consolidated with Frontier or any of its Subsidiaries, or (c) Frontier or any of its Subsidiaries acquires all or substantially all of the assets of the entity, provided that no such Lien extends to any other property of Frontier or any of its Subsidiaries;

(6) Liens on property to secure debt incurred for development or improvement of the property;

(7) Liens securing (a) nondelinquent performance of bids or contracts (other than for borrowed money, obtaining of advances or credit or the securing of debt), (b) contingent obligations on surety and appeal bonds and (c) other similar nondelinquent obligations, in each case incurred in the ordinary course of business;

(8) Liens securing purchase money Indebtedness or Capital Lease Obligations, provided that (a) any such Lien attaches to the property within 270 days after the acquisition thereof and (b) such Lien attaches solely to the property so acquired;

(9) Liens arising solely by virtue of any statutory or common law provision relating to banker’s Liens, rights of set-off or similar rights and remedies as to deposit account or other funds, provided that such deposit account is not a dedicated cash collateral account and is not subject to restrictions against Frontier’s access in excess of those set forth by regulations promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board and such deposit account is not intended by Frontier to provide collateral to the depository institution;

(10) pledges or deposits under worker’s compensation laws, unemployment insurance laws or similar legislation;

S-20

(11) statutory and tax Liens for sums not yet due or delinquent or which are being contested or appealed in good faith by appropriate proceedings;

(12) Liens arising solely by operation of law and in the ordinary course of business, such as mechanics’, materialmen’s, warehousemen’s and carriers’ Liens and Liens of landlords or of mortgages of landlords on fixtures and movable property located on premises leased in the ordinary course of business;

(13) Liens on personal property (other than shares or debt of Frontier’s Subsidiaries) securing loans maturing in not more than one year or on accounts receivables in connection with a receivables financing program;

(14) Liens securing financings in amounts up to the value of assets, businesses and properties acquired after the Issue Date; or any Lien upon any property to secure all or part of the cost of construction thereof or to secure debt incurred prior to, at the time of, or within twelve months after completion of such construction or the commencement of full operations thereof (whichever is later), to provide funds for such purpose; and

(15) extensions, renewals or replacement of any of the Liens described above, if limited to all or any part of the same property securing the, original Lien.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Frontier will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, Incur Liens securing Indebtedness or other obligations pursuant to the second sentence or clause (1) of the first paragraph above, unless, after giving effect to the incurrence of such Liens, the aggregate amount (without duplication) of (a) the Indebtedness and other obligations secured by Liens on the property or assets (which includes capital stock) of Frontier and its Subsidiaries incurred pursuant to the second sentence and clause (1) of the first paragraph above plus (b) the Indebtedness of Frontier’s Subsidiaries Incurred pursuant to clause (A) of the first paragraph of “—Limitation on Subsidiary Indebtedness” covenant above shall not exceed the Permitted Amount at the time of the incurrence of such Liens.

Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Assets

Frontier may not consolidate or merge with or into, or sell, lease or convey all or substantially all of its assets in any one transaction or series of transactions to any other Person, unless:

(1) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “successor”) is either Frontier or is a corporation organized under the laws of the United States, any state or the District of Columbia and expressly assumes by supplemental indenture all of Frontier’s obligations under the supplemental indenture, the indenture and the notes; and

(2) immediately after giving effect to the transaction no Event of Default or event which with notice or lapse of time would be an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

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

Termination of Certain Covenants

In the event that the notes receive a rating equal to or greater than BBB- by S&P and Baa3 by Moody’s or the equivalent thereof under any new ratings system if the ratings system of either such agency shall be modified after the date hereof (with a stable or better outlook in the

S-21

case of a rating equal to BBB- by S&P and Baa3 by Moody’s) (each such rating, an “Investment Grade Rating”), and notwithstanding that such notes may later cease to have an Investment Grade Rating from either S&P or Moody’s or both, Frontier and its Subsidiaries will be released from their obligations to comply with the provisions of the indenture described under “—Limitation on Subsidiary Indebtedness.”

Events of Default

The term “Event of Default” with respect to the notes means any of the following:

(1) failure to pay interest for 60 days after the date payment is due and payable;

(2) failure to pay principal or premium, if any, on any note when due, at maturity, upon any redemption, by declaration or otherwise;

(3) failure to perform other covenants for 90 days after due notice that performance was required; or

(4) events in bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of Frontier.

If an Event of Default relating to the payment of interest or principal involving the notes has occurred and is continuing, the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the notes may declare the entire principal amount of the notes to be due and payable immediately.

If an Event of Default relating to the failure to perform other covenants occurs and is continuing for a period of 60 days after the date on which such failure becomes an Event of Default, then the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the notes may declare the entire principal amount of the notes due and payable immediately.

The holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of notes may, after satisfying conditions, rescind and annul any of the above-described declarations and consequences involving the notes.

If an Event of Default relating to events in bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of our company occurs and is continuing, then the principal amount of all of the notes outstanding and any accrued interest on such notes will automatically become due and payable immediately, without any declaration or other act by the trustee or any holder.

The indenture imposes limitations on suits brought by holders of notes against us. Except for actions for payment of overdue principal or interest, no holder of notes may institute any action against us under the indenture unless:

• the holder has previously given to the trustee written notice of an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof;

• the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the notes requested that the trustee institute the action;

• the requesting holders have offered the trustee reasonable indemnity for expenses and liabilities that may be incurred by bringing the action;

• the trustee has not instituted the action within 60 days of the request; and

• the trustee has not received inconsistent direction by the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the notes outstanding.

S-22

We will be required to file annually with the trustee a certificate, signed by an officer of our company, stating whether or not the officer knows of any default by us in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any condition or covenant of the indenture or the supplemental indenture applicable to the notes.

Discharge, Defeasance, and Covenant Defeasance

Frontier may elect either:

(1) to defease and be discharged from any and all obligations with respect to the notes; or

(2) to be released from its obligations described above under “—Repurchase of Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event,” “—Limitation on Subsidiary Indebtedness,” “—Limitation on Liens” and “—Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Assets” with respect to the notes, only:

(A) upon the deposit with the trustee, in trust, of money and/or U.S. government obligations, which through the payment of interest and principal of the U.S. government obligations in accordance with their terms will provide money in an amount sufficient to pay any installment of principal and premium, if any and interest on such notes on the applicable Stated Maturity of the payments in accordance with the terms of the supplemental indenture, the indenture and such notes;

(B) upon delivery to the trustee by Frontier of an opinion of counsel to the effect that the deposit and related defeasance or release will not cause the holders of such notes to recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes;

(C) if at the time of defeasance or release no Event of Default with respect to notes will have happened or be continuing; and

(D) if certain other conditions are satisfied.

Book-Entry, Delivery and Form

The notes initially will be represented by one or more fully registered global securities. Each global security will be deposited with, or on behalf of, the Depository Trust Company, or DTC, or any successor thereto and registered in the name of Cede & Co., DTC’s nominee.

You may hold your interests in a global security in the United States through DTC, either as a participant in such system or indirectly through organizations which are participants in such system. So long as DTC or its nominee is the registered owner of the global securities representing the notes, DTC or such nominee will be considered the sole owner and holder of the notes for all purposes of the notes and the indenture. Except as provided below, owners of beneficial interests in the notes will not be entitled to have the notes registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of the notes in definitive form and will not be considered the owners or holders of the notes under the indenture, including for purposes of receiving any reports that we or the trustee delivers pursuant to the indenture. Accordingly, each person owning a beneficial interest in the notes must rely on the procedures of DTC or its nominee and, if such person is not a participant, on the procedures of the participant through which such person owns its interest, in order to exercise any rights of a holder of notes.

Unless and until we issue the notes in fully certificated form:

(1) you will not be entitled to receive physical delivery of a certificate representing your interest in the notes;

S-23

(2) all references in this prospectus supplement to actions by holders will refer to actions taken by DTC upon instructions from its direct participants; and

(3) all references in this prospectus supplement to payments and notices to holders will refer to payments and notices to DTC or Cede & Co., as the registered holder of the notes, for distribution to you in accordance with DTC procedures.

DTC has provided us with the following information: DTC is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the United States Federal Reserve System, a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a “clearing agency” registered under Section 17A of the Exchange Act DTC holds securities that its participants deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the settlement among direct participants of securities transactions, such as transfers and pledges, in deposited securities through computerized book-entry changes in direct participants’ accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct participants of DTC include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and other organizations. DTC is owned by a number of its direct participants and by the New York Stock Exchange, Inc., the American Stock Exchange LLC, and the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as securities brokers and dealers, banks, and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a direct participant, either directly or indirectly. The rules that apply to DTC and its participants are on file with the SEC.

If you intend to purchase any of the notes in the manner provided by this prospectus supplement, you must do so through the DTC system by or through direct participants. The participant that you purchase through will receive a credit for the notes on DTC’s records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of the notes, who we refer to as a “beneficial owner,” is in turn to be received on the participant’s records. Beneficial owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchases, but beneficial owners are expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the participant through which the beneficial owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the notes are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of participants acting on behalf of beneficial owners. Beneficial owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in the notes except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the securities is discontinued.

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

Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to direct participants, by direct participants to indirect participants, and by participants to beneficial owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. will consent or vote with respect to the notes. Under its usual procedures, DTC would mail an Omnibus Proxy to us as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede & Co.’s consenting or voting rights to those direct participants to whose accounts the securities are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).

S-24

We will make any payments on the notes to DTC. DTC’s practice is to credit direct participants’ accounts on the payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC’s records unless DTC has reason to believe that it will not receive payment on the payable date. Payments by participants to beneficial owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in “street name,” and will be the responsibility of such participant and not of DTC, us or the trustee, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. The trustee or we will be responsible for the payment of all amounts to DTC. DTC will be responsible for the disbursement of those payments to its participants, and the participants will be responsible for disbursements of those payments to beneficial owners.

If DTC is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as depositary and a successor depositary is not appointed by us within 90 days or DTC has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act when required to do so and a successor depositary is not appointed within 90 days, we will issue notes in certificated form in exchange for global securities. The indenture permits us to determine at any time and in our sole discretion that notes shall no longer be represented by global securities. DTC has advised us that, under its current practices, it would notify its participants of our request, but will only withdraw beneficial interests from the global security at the request of each DTC participant. We would issue definitive certificates in exchange for any beneficial interests withdrawn.

The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC’s book-entry system has been obtained from sources that we believe to be reliable (including DTC), but we take no responsibility for its accuracy. Neither we nor the trustee will have any responsibility or obligation to participants, or the persons for whom they act as nominees, with respect to:

(1) the accuracy of the records of DTC, its nominee or any participant, any ownership interest in the notes, or

(2) any payments to, or the providing of notice to, participants or beneficial owners.

Modification of the Indenture

The indenture provides that we and the trustee may enter into supplemental indentures without the consent of the holders of the notes to:

• secure the notes;

• evidence the assumption by a successor corporation of our obligations;

• add covenants for the protection of the holders of the notes;

• provide for the issuance of, and terms of, new notes as permitted under the indenture;

• cure any ambiguity or correct any inconsistency in the indenture or any supplement thereto;

• evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee;

• make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the holders of the notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights hereunder of any holder of the notes; and

• comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939.

S-25

The indenture also provides that we and the trustee may, with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the notes, then outstanding and affected, voting as one class, add any provisions to, or change in any manner, eliminate or modify in any way the provisions of the indenture or any supplement thereto or modify in any manner the rights of the holders of the notes. We and the trustee may not, however, without the consent of the holder of each outstanding note affected thereby:

• extend the final maturity of any note;

• reduce the principal amount or premium, if any;

• reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest;

• reduce any amount payable on redemption;

• change the currency in which the principal, premium, if any, or interest is payable;

• impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on any note when due; or

• reduce the percentage of holders of notes whose consent is required for any modification of the indenture.

The Trustee

The Bank of New York Mellon is the trustee under the indenture.

Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, the trustee will perform only such duties as are specifically set forth in the indenture or the supplemental indenture. During the existence of an Event of Default, the trustee will exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it under the indenture and the supplemental 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 such person’s own affairs.

Pursuant and subject to the Trust Indenture Act, the trustee will be permitted to engage in other transactions with us; however, if the trustee acquires any conflicting interest, it would be required to eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as trustee or resign.

No Individual Liability of Incorporators, Shareholders, Officers or Directors

The indenture provides that no incorporator and no past, present or future shareholder, officer or director of our company or of any successor corporation, in their capacity as such, shall have any individual liability for any of our obligations, covenants or agreements under the notes or the indenture.

MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The following discussion sets forth a summary of certain material United States federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of notes.

This summary:

• does not purport to be a complete analysis of all of the potential tax considerations that may be applicable to an investor as a result of the investor’s particular tax situation;

• summarizes certain material United States federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the notes offered hereby by an initial holder of the notes who purchases the notes in the initial offering for cash at their issue price;

• is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which we refer to as the “Code,” the existing applicable United States Treasury regulations promulgated or proposed under the Code, which we refer to as the “Treasury Regulations,” judicial authority and currently effective published rulings and administrative pronouncements, each as of the date hereof and each of which are subject to change at any time, possibly with retroactive effect, and differing interpretations;

• is applicable only to beneficial owners of notes who hold their notes as “capital assets,” within the meaning of section 1221 of the Code;

• does not address all aspects of United States federal income taxation that may be relevant to holders in light of their particular circumstances or who are subject to special treatment under United States federal income tax laws, including but not limited to:

• dealers and electing traders in securities or currencies who use a mark-to-market method of accounting for their securities holdings;

• brokers, banks and other financial institutions, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations and pension funds;

• regulated investment companies and real estate investment trusts;

• persons who own the notes as a position in a hedging transaction or as part of a “straddle,” “conversion” or other integrated transaction for federal income tax purposes;

• U.S. holders (as defined below) whose “functional currency” for federal income tax purposes is not the United States dollar;

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

• holders subject to the alternative minimum tax;

• corporations that accumulate earnings in order to avoid United States federal income tax;

• non-U.S. holders (defined below) subject to special rules under the Code, including “controlled foreign corporations” and “passive foreign investment companies”; and

• partnerships, other pass-through entities and investors in these entities; and

• does not discuss any possible applicability of any United States state or local taxes, non-United States taxes or any United States federal tax other than the income tax, including, but not limited to, the United States federal gift tax and estate tax.

S-33

As used in this summary, the term “U.S. holder” means a beneficial owner of a note who is, for United States federal income tax purposes:

• an individual citizen or resident of the United States;

• a corporation, or other entity treated as an association taxable as a corporation, that is created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

• an estate whose income is subject to United States federal income tax regardless of its source; or

• a trust (i) if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the trust’s administration, and one or more “United States persons,” within the meaning of section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, has the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust, or (ii) that has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a United States person.

If a partnership, including any entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes, holds notes, then the United States federal income tax treatment of a partner in that partnership generally will depend on the status of the partner and the partnership’s activities. Partners and partnerships should consult their own tax advisors with regard to the United States federal income tax treatment of an investment in the notes.

The term “non-U.S. holder” means a beneficial owner of a note who is neither a U.S. holder nor a partnership. Potential non-U.S. holders should refer to the discussion under the heading “—Non-U.S. Holders” below.

This summary of material United States federal income tax considerations constitutes neither tax nor legal advice. Prospective investors are urged to consult their own tax advisors to determine the specific tax consequences and risks to them of purchasing, holding and disposing of the notes, including the application to their particular situation of any United States federal estate and gift, United States state and local, non-United States and other tax laws and of any applicable income tax treaty.

Effect of Certain Contingencies

Under the terms of the notes, amounts in excess of stated interest or principal may be required to be paid in certain circumstances. See “Description of the Notes—Repurchase of Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event.” It is possible that the IRS could assert that the payment of such excess amounts is a “contingent payment,” and the notes are therefore contingent payment debt instruments for United States federal income tax purposes. Under the applicable Treasury Regulations, however, for purposes of determining whether a debt instrument is a contingent payment debt instrument, remote or incidental contingencies (determined as of the date the notes are issued) are ignored. The Company believes the possibility of making additional payments is remote and/or incidental and consequently, the notes would not be treated as contingent payment debt instruments. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding this issue. The remainder of this discussion assumes that the notes are not treated as contingent payment debt instruments.

U.S. Holders

Stated Interest

Stated interest on a note generally will be taxable to a U.S. holder as ordinary interest income at the time it accrues or is received in accordance with such holder’s method of accounting for United States federal income tax purposes.

S-34

Sale, Exchange, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition of Notes

Upon a sale, exchange, redemption, repurchase or other taxable disposition of notes, a U.S. holder generally will recognize taxable gain or loss. The amount of such gain or loss will be measured by the difference, if any, between:

• the amount of cash plus the fair market value of any other property received in exchange for the disposed notes, excluding any such amount attributable to accrued but unpaid interest; and

• the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in the disposed notes.

Any amount received by the U.S. holder attributable to accrued but unpaid interest will be taxed as such, as described under the heading “—Stated Interest” above.

Subject to any adjustments, a U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in a note generally will equal the holder’s initial investment in the note, reduced by any cash payments received on the note other than stated interest.

Gain or loss recognized by a U.S. holder generally will be capital gain or loss and, if such holder held the note for more than one year at the time of the disposition, long-term capital gain or loss. Long-term capital gains recognized by certain non-corporate U.S. holders, including individuals, generally will be subject to a reduced tax rate. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

Medicare Surtax

Legislation enacted in 2010 will require certain U.S. holders who are individuals, estates or trusts to pay a 3.8% Medicare surtax on all or part of that holder’s “net investment income,” which includes, among other items, interest on, and capital gains from the sale or other taxable disposition of, the notes. This surtax will apply to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2012. Prospective investors should consult their own tax advisors regarding the effect, if any, of this legislation on their investment in the notes.

Non-U.S. Holders

Taxation of Interest

All payments to a non-U.S. holder that are attributable to interest generally will be exempt from United States federal withholding tax, provided that:

• such payments are not effectively connected with the conduct by the non-U.S. holder of a trade or business within the United States (or, in the case of an applicable tax treaty, are not attributable to the non-U.S. holder’s “permanent establishment” in the United States or, in the case of an individual, “fixed base” maintained by the non-U.S. holder in the United States);

• the non-U.S. holder does not own, actually or constructively, 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of our stock entitled to vote;

• the non-U.S. holder is not a “controlled foreign corporation” that is related, directly or indirectly, to us through stock ownership within the meaning of the applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code; and

• prior to the payment, the non-U.S. holder of the note certifies, under penalty of perjury, on a properly executed and delivered IRS Form W-8BEN or appropriate substitute form, that it is not a “United States person” for United States federal income tax purposes.

S-35

The certification described in the last clause above may be provided by (1) a securities clearing organization, (2) a bank or other financial institution that holds customers’ securities in the ordinary course of its trade or business or (3) a “qualified intermediary” that has entered into a withholding agreement with the IRS and other conditions are met.

A non-U.S. holder who is not exempt from tax under these rules generally will be subject to United States federal withholding tax at a gross rate of 30%, subject to any exemption or reduction under an applicable income tax treaty, unless the interest is effectively connected with the conduct by the non-U.S. holder of a United States trade or business, as described under the heading “—United States Trade or Business” below. Non-U.S. holders should consult applicable income tax treaties, which may provide reduced rates of or an exemption from United States federal withholding tax on payments of interest. Non-U.S. holders will be required to comply with certification requirements in order to claim a treaty exemption or reduced rate, which may be satisfied by providing an IRS Form W-8BEN or appropriate substitute form to us or our agent.

Sale, Exchange, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition of Notes

Subject to the discussion below concerning backup withholding, any gain realized (but excluding any amounts attributable to accrued but unpaid interest, which is treated as interest as discussed above in “—Taxation of Interest”) by a non-U.S. holder on a sale, exchange, redemption, repurchase or other taxable disposition of notes generally will be exempt from United States federal income and withholding tax, unless:

• that gain is effectively connected with the conduct by the non-U.S. holder of a trade or business in the United States and, if provided in an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a “permanent establishment” or, for individuals, a “fixed base” of the non-U.S. holder (see “—United States Trade or Business” below); or

• in the case of a nonresident alien individual, the holder is present in the United States for 183 or more days in the taxable year of disposition and certain other conditions are satisfied.

Any amount received by a non-U.S. holder on a sale or other disposition attributable to accrued but unpaid interest will be treated as such. See “—Taxation of Interest” above.

United States Trade or Business

For purposes of the discussion below, income or gain with respect to a note generally is considered United States trade or business income if it is:

• effectively connected with the conduct by the non-U.S. holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States; and

• in the case of a treaty resident, attributable to the holder’s permanent establishment in the United States or, in the case of an individual, a fixed base in the United States maintained by the non-U.S. holder.

Non-U.S. holders generally will be taxed on any United States trade or business income in the same manner as U.S. holders, but without regard to the Medicare Surtax. See “—U.S. Holders” above. Non-U.S. holders will be required to provide a properly executed IRS Form W-8ECI or appropriate substitute to claim any available exemption from income or withholding tax.

S-36

Non-U.S. holders should consult any applicable income tax treaties, which may provide reduced rates of or an exemption from United States federal income or withholding tax. Non-U.S. holders will be required to satisfy certification requirements in order to claim a reduction of or exemption from income or withholding tax pursuant to an applicable income tax treaty.

Corporate non-U.S. holders with United States trade or business income may also be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” at a gross rate of 30% on their earnings and profits for the taxable year that are effectively connected with the holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States, subject to exemption or reduction by any applicable income tax treaty.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

U.S. Holders

Certain non-exempt U.S. holders may be subject to information reporting in respect of any payments made on the notes or the proceeds of a disposition of notes. In addition, backup withholding may apply, currently at a rate of 28%, if the U.S. holder (i) fails to supply a taxpayer identification number and certain other information, certified under penalty of perjury, (ii) fails to certify eligibility for an exemption to backup withholding or (iii) otherwise fails to comply with the applicable backup withholding rules. Amounts withheld under backup withholding are allowable as a refund or a credit against the U.S. holder’s federal income tax upon furnishing the required information on a timely basis to the IRS.

Non-U.S. Holders

We will, where required, report to non-U.S. holders and to the IRS the amount of any principal and interest paid on the notes. Copies of these information returns also may be made available under the provisions of a specific treaty or other agreement to the tax authorities of the country in which the non-U.S. holder resides.

Backup withholding, currently at a rate of 28%, will not apply to payments of interest if either the requisite certification that the non-U.S. holder is not a United States person for United States federal income tax purposes has been received or an exemption from backup withholding has otherwise been established, provided that neither we nor our paying agent have actual knowledge, or reason to know, that the non-U.S. holder is a United States person for United States federal income tax purposes that is not an exempt recipient or that the conditions of any other exemption are not satisfied.

Information reporting and, depending on the circumstances, backup withholding will apply to the proceeds of a sale or other disposition of notes within the United States or conducted through certain U.S.-related financial intermediaries, unless the beneficial owner certifies under penalty of perjury as to non-United States person status or such owner otherwise establishes an exemption (provided that neither the broker nor intermediary has actual knowledge or reason to know that such owner is a United States person or that the conditions of any other exemptions are not in fact satisfied).

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules from payments to a non-U.S. holder may be refunded or credited against the non-U.S. holder’s United States federal income tax liability and may entitle the holder to a refund, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

S-37

Additional Withholding Requirements

Under recently enacted legislation and administrative guidance, the relevant withholding agent may be required to withhold 30% on interest income paid after December 31, 2013 and gross proceeds from a disposition of notes paid after December 31, 2014 to (i) a foreign financial institution, unless such foreign financial institution agrees to verify, report and disclose its United States account holders and meets certain other specified requirements, or (ii) a non-financial foreign entity that is the beneficial owner of the payment, unless such entity certifies that it does not have any substantial United States owners or provides the name, address and taxpayer identification number of each substantial United States owner and such entity meets certain other specified requirements. The legislation contains a grandfathering provision that exempts from withholding any payment under, or gross proceeds from a disposition of, an obligation that is outstanding on March 18, 2012, and proposed Treasury Regulations would extend this grandfathering provision to obligations that are outstanding on January 1, 2013. These proposed regulations are not effective until finalized, however, and unless and until they are so finalized, taxpayers are not entitled to rely on them. Prospective investors should consult their own tax advisors regarding this legislation and whether it may be relevant to their purchase, ownership and disposition of the notes.

S-38

BENEFIT PLAN INVESTOR CONSIDERATIONS

The following is a summary of certain considerations associated with the purchase of the notes by employee benefit plans that are subject to the U.S. Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), by plans that are subject to Section 4975 of the Code or by persons whose underlying assets are considered to include “plan assets” of such plans (each, an “ERISA Plan”). Certain other benefit plans may be subject to federal, state, local, non-U.S. or other laws that regulate their investments (collectively, “Similar Laws”) and, accordingly, may be subject to similar risks (together with ERISA Plans, “Plans”).

Prohibited Transaction Issues

Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code prohibit ERISA Plans from engaging in specified transactions involving plan assets with persons who are “parties in interest” (as defined in ERISA) or “disqualified persons” (as defined in Section 4975 of the Code), unless an exemption applies. A non-exempt prohibited transaction may have to be rescinded, and a fiduciary of an ERISA Plan that permits such a transaction may be subject to penalties and liabilities under ERISA.

The issuer or certain of its affiliates may be a party in interest or disqualified person with respect to ERISA Plans from time to time, and the extension of credit is a transaction to which Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code applies. The acquisition and/or holding of notes by any ERISA Plan as to which the issuer and certain of its affiliates is considered a party in interest or a disqualified person may result in a direct or indirect prohibited transaction under ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Code, unless an exemption applies.

Section 408(b)(17) of ERISA and Section 4975(d)(20) of the Code exempt the involvement of the assets of an ERISA Plan in connection with the sale or exchange of property with, the lending of money or other extension of credit with, or the transfer of plan assets to, or the use of plan assets by or for the benefit of, a person who is a party in interest or disqualified person if: (i) such person is a party in interest or disqualified person solely by reason of providing services to the ERISA Plan or by reason of certain relationships to such a service provider and is not a fiduciary (including by reason of rendering investment advice) with respect to the investment of plan assets involved in the transaction and (ii) the ERISA Plan pays no more and no less than adequate consideration (as defined in such Sections).

In addition, the U.S. Department of Labor has issued prohibited transaction class exemptions, or PTCEs, that may apply to the acquisition and holding of the notes. These class exemptions include, without limitation, PTCE 84-14 (relating to transactions effected by independent qualified professional asset managers), PTCE 90-1 (relating to transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTCE 91-38 (relating to transactions involving bank collective investment funds), PTCE 95-60 (relating to transactions involving life insurance company general accounts) and PTCE 96-23 (relating to transactions effected by in-house asset managers). A purchaser of any notes should be aware that there can be no assurance that all of the conditions of any such exemption will be satisfied and that the scope of the exceptive relief provided by any such exemption might not cover all acts which might be construed as prohibited transactions.

The notes should not be purchased or held by any Plan unless such purchase and holding will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code or a violation of, or penalty, excise or similar tax under, any applicable Similar Laws.

S-39

Representation

By acceptance of a note, each purchaser and subsequent transferee of a note will be deemed to have represented and warranted that either: (i) no portion of the assets used by such purchaser or transferee to acquire or hold the note constitutes assets of any Plan or (ii) the purchase and holding of the note by such purchaser or transferee will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, or a similar violation of, or penalty, excise or similar tax under, any applicable Similar Laws.

The preceding discussion is general in nature and is not intended to be all-inclusive. Fiduciaries or other persons considering purchasing the notes on behalf of, or with the assets of, any Plan should consult with their counsel regarding the potential applicability of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code and any Similar Laws to such investment, including the applicability of any exemption thereto. Each purchaser and holder of the notes has exclusive responsibility for ensuring that its purchase and holding of the notes does not violate the fiduciary and prohibited transaction rules of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code and any Similar Laws. The sale of any notes to any Plan is in no respect a representation by us or any of our affiliates or representatives that such an investment meets all relevant legal requirements with respect to investments by Plans generally or any particular Plan, or that such an investment is appropriate for Plans generally or any particular Plan.

S-40

UNDERWRITING

Subject to the terms and conditions of the underwriting agreement, the underwriters named below, through their representative, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC , have severally agreed to purchase from us the following respective principal amounts of notes listed opposite their name below at the public offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement:

Underwriters	Principal Amount of Notes
Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC	$	180,000,000
J.P. Morgan Securities LLC		120,000,000
Barclays Capital Inc.		54,000,000
Citigroup Global Markets Inc.		54,000,000
Deutsche Bank Securities Inc.		54,000,000
Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC		54,000,000
RBS Securities Inc.		54,000,000
Goldman, Sachs & Co.		6,000,000
Mitsubishi UFJ Securities (USA), Inc.		6,000,000
Raymond James & Associates, Inc.		6,000,000
RBC Capital Markets, LLC		6,000,000
TD Securities (USA) LLC		6,000,000
Total	$	600,000,000

The underwriting agreement provides that the obligations of the several underwriters to purchase the notes offered hereby are subject to certain conditions precedent and that the underwriters will purchase all of the notes offered by this prospectus supplement if any of these notes are purchased.

We have been advised by the representative of the underwriters that the underwriters propose to offer the notes to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover of this prospectus. After the initial public offering, the representative of the underwriters may change the offering price and other selling terms.

In addition, we estimate that our share of the total expenses of this offering, excluding underwriting discounts and commissions, will be approximately $0.7 million.

We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against some specified types of liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to contribute to payments the underwriters may be required to make in respect of any of these liabilities.

The notes are a new issue of securities with no established trading market. The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange or on any automated dealer quotation system. The underwriters may make a market in the notes after completion of the offering, but will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market-making activities at any time without notice. No assurance can be given as to the liquidity of the trading market for the notes or that an active public market for the notes will develop. If an active public trading market for the notes does not develop, the market price and liquidity of the notes may be adversely affected.

S-41

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

In connection with the offering, the underwriters may purchase and sell the notes in the open market. These transactions may include short sales, purchases to cover positions created by short sales and stabilizing transactions.

Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater principal amount of notes than they are required to purchase in the offering. The underwriters may close out any short position by purchasing notes in the open market. A short position is more likely to be created if underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the notes in the open market prior to the completion of the offering.

Stabilizing transactions consist of various bids for or purchases of the notes made by the underwriters in the open market prior to the completion of the offering.

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

Purchases to cover a short position and stabilizing transactions may have the effect of preventing or slowing a decline in the market price of the notes. Additionally, these purchases, along with the imposition of the penalty bid, 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 might otherwise exist in the open market. These transactions may be effected in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.

In relation to each Member State of the European Economic Area which has implemented the Prospectus Directive (each, a “Relevant Member State”), each underwriter has represented and agreed that with effect from and including the date on which the Prospectus Directive is implemented in that Relevant Member State (the “Relevant Implementation Date”), it has not made and will not make an offer of the notes to the public in that Relevant Member State prior to the publication of a prospectus in relation to the notes which has been approved by the competent authority in that Relevant Member State or, where appropriate, approved in another Relevant Member State and notified to the competent authority in that Relevant Member State, all in accordance with the Prospectus Directive, except that it may, with effect from and including the Relevant Implementation Date, make an offer of the notes to the public in that Relevant Member State:

(a) to any legal entity which is a qualified investor as defined in the Prospectus Directive;

(b) to fewer than 100 or, if the Relevant Member State has implemented the relevant provision of the 2010 PD Amending Directive, 150, natural or legal persons (other than qualified investors, as defined in the Prospectus Directive), as permitted under the

S-42

Prospectus Directive, subject to obtaining the prior consent of the representative of the underwriters for any such offer; or;

(c) in any other circumstances falling within article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive.

provided that no such offer of the notes shall result in a requirement for the publication by the Company or the representative of the underwriters of a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive or supplement a prospectus pursuant to Article 16 of the Prospectus Directive.

For the purposes of this provision, the expression an “offer of notes to the public” in relation to any notes in any Relevant Member State means the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the notes to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe for the notes, as the same may be varied in that Relevant Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in that Relevant Member State, and the expression “Prospectus Directive” means Directive 2003/71/EC (and amendments thereto, including the 2010 PD Amending Directive, to the extent implemented in the Relevant Member State), and includes any relevant implementing measure in the Relevant Member State and the expression “2010 PD Amending Directive” means Directive 2010/73/EU.

Each underwriter has represented and agreed that:

(a) it has only communicated or caused to be communicated and will only communicate or cause to be communicated any invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of Section 21 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the “FSMA”)) received by it in connection with the issue or sale of any Securities, in circumstances in which Section 21(1) of the FSMA does not apply to the Company; and

(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 Securities in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom.

You should be aware that the laws and practices of certain countries require investors to pay stamp taxes and other charges in connection with purchases of securities.

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 and brokerage activities.

The underwriters and their affiliates perform various financial advisory, investment banking and commercial banking services from time to time for Frontier and its affiliates, for which they received or will receive customary fees and expenses. Certain of the underwriters or their affiliates are lenders and/or agents or arrangers under Frontier’s existing credit facilities. Certain of the underwriters or their affiliates may hold long and short positions in the debt and equity of Frontier and its affiliates for their own account and for the account of their customers.

In the ordinary course of their various business activities, the underwriters and their respective 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, and such investment and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of the Company. The underwriters and their respective affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or instruments and may at any time hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

OUR COMPANY

We are a communications company providing services predominantly to rural areas and small and medium-sized towns and cities in the U.S. Our business is with both residential and business customers and we provide the “last mile” of telecommunications services to customers in these markets.

We offer a broad portfolio of high-quality communications services for residential and business customers in each of our markets. These include services traditionally associated with

1

local telephone companies, as well as other services such as long distance, Internet access, broadband-enabled services and video services. We offer these services both á la carte and, increasingly, as bundled packages which are purposely designed to simplify customer purchasing decisions and to provide the customer with pricing discounts. We also offer incentives and promotions such as gifts to influence customers to purchase or retain certain services. We also enhance customer retention by offering one-, two- and three-year price protection plans under which customers commit to a term in exchange for predictable pricing or other incentives and promotions. We are staffed locally with skilled technicians and supervisory personnel, which enables us to provide efficiently and reliably an array of communications services to meet our customers’ needs. Our call center operations and field technicians are staffed with 100% U.S.-based personnel.

Our mission is to be the leader in providing communications services to residential and business customers in our markets. We are committed to delivering innovative and reliable products and solutions with an emphasis on convenience, service and customer satisfaction. We believe that our local management structure, 100% U.S.-based customer service and innovative product positioning will continue to differentiate us from our competitors in the markets in which we compete.

For the year ended December 31, 2011, we had total revenue of approximately $5.2 billion.

We are a Delaware corporation with executive offices at 3 High Ridge Park, Stamford, Connecticut 06905. Our telephone number is (203) 614-5600.
