This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities we may offer. Each time we sell or issue securities, we will provide a prospectus supplement or other offering material that will contain specific information about the terms of that specific offering of securities and the specific manner in which they may be offered. The prospectus supplement or other offering material may also add to, update or change any of the information contained in this prospectus. To the extent that any statement we make in a prospectus supplement or other offering material is inconsistent with statements made in this prospectus, the statements made in this prospectus will be deemed modified or superseded by those made in the prospectus supplement or other offering material.

The specialty contracting services industry in which we operate is highly fragmented and includes a large number of participants. We compete with several large multinational corporations and numerous regional and privately owned companies. In addition, a portion of our customers directly perform many of the same services that we provide. Relatively few barriers to entry exist in the markets in which we operate. As a result, any organization that has adequate financial resources, access to technical expertise, and the necessary equipment may become a competitor and the degree to which an existing competitor participates in the markets that we operate may increase rapidly. The principal competitive factors for our services include geographic presence, quality of service, worker and general public safety, price, breadth of service offerings, and industry reputation. We believe that we compare favorably to our competitors when evaluated against these factors.

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES OF DYCOM INDUSTRIES, INC. AND GUARANTEES

“We,” “our,” and “us” under this Description of Debt Securities and Guarantees refer to Dycom Industries, Inc. and “Guarantors” refers to certain of its subsidiaries, which may include Dycom Investments, Inc., which may guarantee the debt securities.

This section contains a description of the general terms and provisions of the debt securities of Dycom Industries, Inc. that may be offered by this prospectus and to which any prospectus supplement may relate. The particular terms of the debt securities offered will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. The prospectus supplement relating to a series of debt securities being offered pursuant to this prospectus will be attached to this prospectus.

We may issue senior debt securities and subordinated debt securities. The debt securities are to be issued under an indenture (the “indenture”) to be entered into among us, the Guarantors, if applicable, and a trustee, the form of which is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. The indenture may be supplemented from time to time.

This prospectus briefly outlines some of the indenture provisions. The following summary of the material provisions of the indenture is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of the indenture, including definitions of certain terms used in the indenture. Wherever we refer to particular sections or defined terms of the indenture, those sections or defined terms are incorporated in this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement by reference. You should review the indenture that is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement for additional information.

In addition, the material specific financial, legal and other terms as well as federal income tax consequences particular to securities of each series will be described in the prospectus supplement relating to the securities of that series. The prospectus supplement may or may not modify the general terms found in this prospectus and will be filed with the SEC. For a complete description of the terms of a particular series of debt securities, you should read both this prospectus and the prospectus supplement relating to that particular series.

General

The indenture provisions do not limit the amount of debt that we or any of our subsidiaries may issue under the indenture or otherwise, and we may issue the securities in one or more series with the same or various maturities, at par or a premium, or with original issue discount.

Unless otherwise specified in the prospectus supplement, our debt securities covered by this prospectus will be our direct unsecured obligations. Senior debt securities will rank equally with our other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. Subordinated debt securities will be unsecured and subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all of our unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. See “-Subordination” below. Any of our secured indebtedness will rank ahead of the debt securities to the extent of the assets securing such indebtedness.

We are a holding company that conducts substantially all of our operations through our subsidiaries and none of our subsidiaries is obligated to make funds available to us for payment on the debt securities. Accordingly, our ability to make payments on the debt securities is dependent on the earnings and the distribution or other payment of funds from our subsidiaries. The debt securities will be structurally subordinated in right of payment to all indebtedness and other liabilities and commitments (including trade payables and lease obligations) of our subsidiaries, including any debt securities issued by Dycom Investments, Inc. Our right to receive assets of any of our subsidiaries upon the subsidiary’s liquidation or reorganization will be structurally subordinated to the claims of that subsidiary’s creditors, except to the extent that we are ourselves recognized as a creditor of the subsidiary, in which case our claims would still be subordinate in right of payment to any security in the assets of the subsidiary and any indebtedness of the subsidiary senior to that held by us. See “-Guarantees” below.

The prospectus supplement relating to any series of our debt securities being offered will include specific terms relating to the offering. These terms will include, among other terms, some or all of the following, as applicable:

the title and series of such debt securities;

the total principal amount of the series of debt securities and whether there shall be any limit upon the aggregate principal amount of such debt securities;

the date or dates, or the method or methods, if any, by which such date or dates will be determined, on which the principal of the debt securities will be payable;

the rate or rates at which such debt securities will bear interest, if any, which rate may be zero in the case of certain debt securities issued at an issue price representing a discount from the principal amount payable at maturity, or the method by which such rate or rates will be determined (including, if applicable, any remarketing option or similar method), and the date or dates from which such interest, if any, will accrue or the method by which such date or dates will be determined;

the date or dates on which interest, if any, on such debt securities will be payable and any regular record dates applicable to the date or dates on which interest will be so payable;

the place or places where the principal of or any premium or interest on such debt securities will be payable, where any of such debt securities that are issued in registered form may be surrendered for registration of or transfer or exchange, and where any such debt securities may be surrendered for conversion or exchange;

provisions specifying whether we will be obligated to redeem or purchase any of such debt securities pursuant to any sinking fund or analogous provision or at the option of any holder of such debt securities and, if so, the date or dates on which, the period or periods within which, the price or prices at which and the other terms and conditions upon which such debt securities will be redeemed or purchased, in whole or in part, pursuant to such obligation, and any provisions for the remarketing of such debt securities so redeemed or purchased;

if other than denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, the denominations in which any debt securities to be issued in registered form will be issuable and, if other than a denomination of $5,000, the denominations in which any debt securities to be issued in bearer form will be issuable;

provisions specifying whether the debt securities will be convertible into other securities of ours and/or exchangeable for securities of other issuers and, if so, the terms and conditions upon which such debt securities will be so convertible or exchangeable;

if other than the principal amount, the portion of the principal amount (or the method by which such portion will be determined) of such debt securities that will be payable upon declaration of acceleration of the maturity thereof;

if other than U.S. dollars, the currency of payment, including composite currencies, of the principal of and any premium or interest on any of such debt securities;

provisions specifying whether the principal of and any premium or interest on such debt securities will be payable, at the election of us or a holder of debt securities, in a currency other than that in which such debt securities are stated to be payable and the date or dates on which, the period or periods within which, and the other terms and conditions upon which, such election may be made;

any index, formula or other method used to determine the amount of payments of principal of, any premium or interest on such debt securities;

provisions specifying whether such debt securities are to be issued in the form of one or more global securities and, if so, the identity of the depositary for such global security or securities;

provisions specifying whether such debt securities are senior debt securities or subordinated debt securities and, if subordinated debt securities, the specific subordination provisions applicable thereto;

in the case of subordinated debt securities, provisions specifying the relative degree, if any, to which such subordinated debt securities of the series will be senior to or be subordinated in right of payment to other series of subordinated debt securities or other indebtedness of ours, as the case may be, whether such other series of subordinated debt securities or other indebtedness is outstanding or not;

any deletions from, modifications of or additions to the events of default or covenants with respect to such debt securities;

terms specifying whether the provisions described below under “-Satisfaction and Discharge” and “-Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance” will be applicable to such debt securities;

any other terms of such debt securities and any other deletions from or modifications or additions to the applicable indenture in respect of such debt securities.

We will have the ability under the indenture to “reopen” a previously issued series of debt securities and issue additional debt securities of that series or establish additional terms of that series. We also are permitted to issue debt securities with the same terms as previously issued debt securities.

We may in the future issue debt securities other than the debt securities described in this prospectus. There is no requirement that any other debt securities that we issue be issued under the indenture described in this prospectus. Thus, any other debt securities that we may issue may be issued under other indentures or documentation containing provisions different from those included in the indenture or applicable to one or more issues of the debt securities described in this prospectus.

Guarantees

Each of the Guarantors will jointly and severally guarantee, on a senior basis, the due and punctual payment of all amounts payable under our senior debt securities, including principal, premium, if any, and interest. Each of the Guarantors will jointly and severally guarantee, on a basis subordinated to the prior payment in full of all senior indebtedness of each such Guarantor, the due and punctual payment of all amounts payable under our subordinated debt securities, including principal, premium, if any, and interest.

The obligations of each of the Guarantors under its guarantee will be limited as necessary to prevent that guarantee from constituting a fraudulent conveyance under applicable law. We cannot assure you that this limitation will protect the guarantees from fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer challenges or, if it does, that the remaining amount due and collectible under the guarantees would suffice, if necessary, to pay the debt securities in full when due. In a Florida bankruptcy case, a similar provision was found to be unenforceable in a situation where the guarantors did not receive reasonably equivalent value in exchange for the guarantee, and, as a result, the subsidiary guarantees in that case were found to be fraudulent conveyances and unenforceable. We do not know if that case will be followed if there is litigation relating to the validity and/or enforceability of the guarantees under the indenture. However, if it is followed, the risk that the guarantees will be found to be unenforceable will be significantly increased if the guarantors do not receive any benefit from the debt securities.

A Guarantor may not sell, assign, transfer, convey, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving entity) another entity, other than us or another Guarantor, unless:

(1)

immediately after giving effect to that transaction, no default or event of default exists; and

(2)

the entity acquiring the property in any such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition or the entity formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Guarantor) assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under the indenture and its guarantee pursuant to a supplemental indenture satisfactory to the trustee.

The guarantee of a Guarantor will be automatically and unconditionally released:

(1)

in connection with certain sales or other dispositions of all or substantially all of the assets of the Guarantor;

(2)

in connection with certain sales or other dispositions of the capital stock of the Guarantor; or

(3)

upon legal defeasance, covenant defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of the debt securities as provided below under the captions “-Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance” and “-Satisfaction and Discharge.”

Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets

(a) We will not, directly or indirectly: (1) consolidate or merge with or into another entity (whether or not we are the surviving corporation); (2) sell, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of ours and our subsidiaries taken as a whole, in one or a series of related transactions, to another entity; or (3) permit any Guarantor (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving entity) to enter into any such transactions or a series of related transactions under clause (1) or (2) above which, in the aggregate, would result in a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of ours and the Guarantors taken as a whole, unless:

(1)

either: (a) we or such other Guarantor is the surviving corporation; or (b) the entity formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than us or such Guarantor) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made is organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia; provided that in the case when such entity is not a corporation, a co-obligor of the debt securities is a corporation organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia;

(2)

the entity formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than us or other Guarantor) or the entity to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made assumes all the obligations of ours or such Guarantor under the debt securities and the indenture pursuant to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the trustee; and

(3)

immediately after such transaction, no default or event of default exists.

(b) This “Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets” covenant will not apply to:

(A)

our merger with an affiliate solely for the purpose of reincorporating us in another jurisdiction; or

(B)

any consolidation or merger or any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of assets between or among us and our subsidiaries.

(c) A supplemental indenture or the form of security for a particular series of debt securities may include additional conditions or changes to the “Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets” covenant described above. The “Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets” covenant applicable to a particular series of debt securities will be discussed in the prospectus supplement relating to such series.

Additional Covenants

Any additional covenants applicable to a particular series of our debt securities will be discussed in the prospectus supplement relating to such series and will be included in a supplemental indenture or the form of security for such series.

Events of Default and Remedies

An “event of default” means any one of the following events that occurs with respect to a series of our debt securities issued under the indenture:

failure to pay interest on any debt security of such series for 30 days after payment was due;

failure to make the principal or any premium payment (whether at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise) on any debt security of such series when due;

failure to make any sinking fund payment or analogous obligation when due in respect of any debt securities of such series;

failure by us or any of the Guarantors to comply with any other agreements in the indenture and this failure continues for 60 days after we receive written notice of it by the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the debt securities of a particular series voting as a single class (other than any failure to perform in respect of an agreement included in the indenture solely for the benefit of another series of debt securities);

any default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any indebtedness for money borrowed by us or any of the Guarantors (or the payment of which is guaranteed by us or any of the Guarantors), if that default: (a) is caused by a failure to make any payment on such indebtedness when due at final maturity of such indebtedness (a “payment default”); or (b) results in the acceleration of such indebtedness prior to its express maturity, and, in each case, the principal amount of any such indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such indebtedness under which there has been a payment default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $50.0 million or more;

failure by us to pay final judgments entered by a court or courts of competent jurisdiction (to the extent any such judgments are not paid or covered by insurance provided by a reputable carrier) aggregating in excess of $50.0 million, which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days;

except as permitted in the indenture, any guarantee is held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or ceases for any reason to be in full force and effect or any Guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations under its guarantee, except to the extent contemplated by the indenture and any such guarantee; and

certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to us or certain of our significant subsidiaries.

A supplemental indenture or the form of security for a particular series of debt securities may include additional events of default or changes to the events of default described above. The events of default applicable to a particular series of debt securities will be discussed in the prospectus supplement relating to such series. Other than as specified above, a default under our other indebtedness will not be a default under the indenture for the debt securities covered by this prospectus, and a default under one series of debt securities will not necessarily be a default under another series.

In the case of an event of default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to us or certain of our significant subsidiaries, all outstanding debt securities will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other event of default with respect to outstanding debt securities of any series occurs and is continuing, then the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of outstanding debt securities of that series then outstanding may declare all debt securities of that series to be due and payable immediately by notice in writing to us specifying the event of default.

The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding debt securities of a particular series by notice to the trustee may, on behalf of the holders of all of the debt securities of such particular series, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing default or event of default and its consequences under the indenture except a continuing default or event of default in the payment of principal, interest, premium, if any, or any sinking fund payment, if applicable, on any series of debt securities or a covenant or provision that cannot be modified or amended without the consent of each holder of outstanding securities of that series.

We refer you to the prospectus supplement relating to any series of debt securities that are discount securities for the particular provisions relating to acceleration of a portion of the principal amount of the discount securities upon the occurrence of an event of default.

Holders of the debt securities may not enforce the indenture or the debt securities except as provided in the applicable indenture. Subject to certain limitations, holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding debt securities of a particular series may direct the trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The trustee may withhold from holders of the debt securities notice of any default if it determines that withholding notices is in their interest, except for defaults relating to the payment of principal, interest, premium, if any, or any sinking fund payment, if applicable, on any series of debt securities.

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

such holder has previously given the trustee notice that an event of default is continuing;

holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding debt securities of a particular series have requested the trustee to pursue the remedy;

such holders have offered the trustee reasonable security or indemnity against any loss, liability or expense;

the trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and

holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding debt securities of such series have not given the trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.

We are required to deliver to the trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the indenture. Within five business days of becoming aware of any default or event of default, we are required to deliver to the trustee a statement specifying such default or event of default.

Modification of Indenture

Except as provided in the next three succeeding paragraphs and as described in the prospectus supplement relating to a series of debt securities, the indenture, our debt securities and the guarantees may be amended or modified with the consent of the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of all outstanding debt securities which are affected by such amendment or modification, and any existing default or event of default or compliance with any provision of the indenture, the debt securities or the guarantees may be waived with the consent of the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding debt securities of a particular series.

Without the consent of each holder of debt securities affected, an amendment, modification or waiver may not (with respect to any affected debt securities held by a non-consenting holder):

(1)

reduce the principal amount of debt securities whose holders must consent to an amendment, modification or waiver;

(2)

reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any debt securities or alter the provisions with respect to the redemption of any debt securities;

(3)

reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on any debt securities;

(4)

waive a default or event of default in the payment of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on any debt securities (except a rescission of acceleration of the debt securities by the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding debt securities of a particular series and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);

(5)

make any debt security payable in money other than that stated in such debt securities;

(6)

impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to any debt securities or the related guarantees;

(7)

waive a redemption payment with respect to any debt securities;

(8)

release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its guarantee or the indenture, except in accordance with the terms of the indenture; or

(9)

make any change in the preceding amendment and waiver provisions.

In addition, any amendment or modification to, or waiver of, the provisions of the indenture relating to subordination of the debt securities and the guarantees that adversely affects the rights of the holders of the debt securities will require the consent of the holders of at least 75% in aggregate principal amount of affected debt securities then outstanding.

Notwithstanding the preceding, without the consent of any holder of debt securities, we, the Guarantors and the trustee may amend or modify the indenture, the debt securities or the guarantees:

(1)

to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency;

(2)

to provide for uncertificated debt securities in addition to or in place of certificated debt securities;

(3)

to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the holders of debt securities or that does not materially adversely affect the legal rights under the indenture of any such holder;

(4)

to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”);

(5)

to conform the text of the indenture, the guarantees or the debt securities to any provision of this prospectus or to the prospectus supplement relating to the debt securities of any series to the extent that such provision in the prospectus or the prospectus supplement was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of the indenture, the guarantees or the debt securities;

(6)

to release a Guarantor from its obligations under its guarantee or the indenture in accordance with the applicable provisions of the indenture;

(7)

to secure any debt securities and/or any guarantees;

(8)

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

(9)

to allow any Guarantor to execute a supplemental indenture and/or a guarantee with respect to the debt securities.

In computing whether the holders of the requisite principal amount of outstanding debt securities have taken action under an indenture or supplemental indenture:

for an original issue discount security, we will use the amount of the principal that would be due and payable as of that date, as if the maturity of the debt had been accelerated due to a default; and

for a debt security denominated in a foreign currency or currencies, we will use the U.S. dollar equivalent of the outstanding principal amount as of that date, using the exchange rate in effect on the date of original issuance of the debt security.

Subordination

The extent to which a particular series of our subordinated debt securities may be subordinated to our unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness will be set forth in the prospectus supplement for any such series and any indenture may be modified by a supplemental indenture to reflect such subordination provisions.

Payment and Transfer

Unless otherwise specified in the related prospectus supplement, we will pay principal, interest and any premium on fully registered securities at the place or places designated by us for such purposes. We will make payment to the persons in whose names the debt securities are registered at the close of business on the day or days specified by us. Any other payments will be made as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

All paying agents initially designated by us with respect to payments on the debt securities will be named in the related prospectus supplement. We may at any time designate additional paying agents or rescind the designation of any paying agent or approve a change in the office through which any paying agent acts, except that we will be required to maintain a paying agent in each place where the principal of and any premium or interest on any debt securities are payable.

Unless otherwise provided in the related prospectus supplement, holders may transfer or exchange debt securities at the corporate trust office of the trustee or at any other office or agency maintained by us for such purposes. We will not charge a service fee for any transfer or exchange of certificated securities, but we may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or other governmental charge and any other reasonable expenses (including fees and expenses of the trustee) that we are required to pay in connection with a transfer or exchange.

You may effect the transfer of certificated securities and the right to receive the principal, premium and interest on certificated securities only by surrendering the certificate representing those certificated securities and either reissuance by us or the trustee of the certificate to the new holder or the issuance by us or the trustee of a new certificate to the new holder.

We are not required to:

register the transfer of or exchange securities of any series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day we transmit a notice of redemption of securities of the series selected for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of the transmission;
or

register the transfer of or exchange any security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any security being redeemed in part.

All transfer agents initially designated by us will be named in the related prospectus supplement. We may at any time rescind the designation of any transfer agent or approve a change in the office through which any transfer agent acts, except that we will be required to maintain a transfer agent in each place where the principal of and any premium or interest on any debt securities are payable.

We have initially appointed the trustee as security registrar, transfer agent and paying agent for the debt securities.

Global Securities

We may issue the global securities in either registered or bearer form, in either temporary or permanent form. Where any debt securities of any series are issued in bearer form, the restrictions and considerations applicable to such debt securities and with respect to the payment, transfer and exchange of such debt securities will be described in the related prospectus supplement. Debt securities that are represented in whole or in part by one or more global securities will be registered in the name of a depositary or its nominee identified in the applicable prospectus supplement, and such global securities will be deposited with, or on behalf of, the depositary. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the specific terms of the depositary arrangement with respect to the applicable securities of that series. We anticipate that the following provisions will apply to all depositary arrangements.

Once a global security is issued, the depositary will credit on its book-entry system the respective principal amounts of the individual securities represented by that global security to the accounts of institutions that have accounts with the depositary. These institutions are known as participants. The underwriters for the securities will designate the accounts to be credited. However, if we have offered or sold the securities either directly or through agents, we or the agents will designate the appropriate accounts to be credited.

Ownership of beneficial interest in a global security will be limited to participants or persons that may hold beneficial interests through participants. Ownership of beneficial interest in a global security will be shown on, and the transfer of that ownership will be effected only through, records maintained by the depositary’s participants or persons that hold through participants. The laws of some states require that certain purchasers of securities take physical delivery of securities. Such limits and such laws may limit the market for beneficial interests in a global security.

So long as the depositary for a global security, or its nominee, is the registered owner of a global security, the depositary or nominee will be considered the sole owner or holder of the securities represented by the global security for all purposes under the indenture. Except as provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, owners of beneficial interests in a global security:

will not be entitled to have securities represented by global securities registered in their names;

will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of securities in definitive form; and

will not be considered owners or holders of these securities under the indenture.

Payments of principal, any premium and interest on the individual securities registered in the name of the depositary or its nominee will be made to the depositary or its nominee as the holder of that global security. Neither we nor the trustee will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to, or payments made on account of, beneficial ownership interests of a global security, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to beneficial ownership interests, and each of us and the trustee may act or refrain from acting without liability on any information provided by the depositary.

We expect that the depositary, after receiving any payment of principal, any premium or interest in respect of a global security, will immediately credit the accounts of the participants with payment in amounts proportionate to their respective holdings in principal amount of beneficial interest in a global security as shown on the records of the depositary. We also expect that payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in a global security will be governed by standing customer instructions and customary practices, as is now 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 participants.

Debt securities represented by a global security will be exchangeable for debt securities in definitive form of like tenor in authorized denominations only if the depositary notifies us that it is unwilling or unable to continue as the depositary and a successor depositary is not appointed by us within 90 days or we, in our discretion, determine not to require all of the debt securities of a series to be represented by a global security and notify the trustee of our decision.

Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance

We may at any time, at the option of our board of directors evidenced by a resolution set forth in an officers’ certificate, elect to have all of our obligations discharged with respect to the outstanding debt securities of such series and all obligations of the Guarantors discharged with respect to their related guarantees (which we refer to in this prospectus as “legal defeasance”) except for:

the rights of holders of outstanding debt securities to receive payments in respect of the principal of, or interest or premium on such debt securities when such payments are due from the trust referred to below;

our obligations with respect to the debt securities concerning issuing temporary debt securities, registration of debt securities, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen debt securities and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust;

the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the trustee, and our and the Guarantors’ obligations in connection therewith; and

the legal defeasance and covenant defeasance (as defined below) provisions of the indenture.

In addition, we may, at our option and at any time, elect to have our and the Guarantors’ obligations released with respect to certain restrictive covenants of debt securities of such series and all obligations of the Guarantors with respect to the guarantees discharged (which we refer to in this prospectus as “covenant defeasance”), and thereafter any failure to comply with those covenants and obligations will not constitute a default or event of default with respect to the debt securities of such series or the related guarantees. In the event covenant defeasance occurs, certain events (not including non-payment, bankruptcy, receivership, rehabilitation and insolvency events) described under “-Events of Default and Remedies” will no longer constitute an event of default with respect to the debt securities of such series and the related guarantees.

In order to exercise either legal defeasance or covenant defeasance:

we must irrevocably deposit with the trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the holders of the debt securities of the series, cash in U.S. dollars or in the foreign currency in which such debt securities are payable at stated maturity, non-callable government securities, or a combination of both, in amounts sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, or interest and premium, if any, on the outstanding debt securities on the stated date for payment thereof and we must specify whether the debt securities are being defeased to such stated date for payment or to a particular redemption date, if applicable;

in the case of legal defeasance, we must deliver to the trustee an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the trustee confirming that (a) we have received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (b) since the date of the indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion of counsel will confirm that, the holders of the outstanding debt securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such legal defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such legal defeasance had not occurred;

in the case of covenant defeasance, we must deliver to the trustee an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the trustee confirming that the holders of the outstanding debt securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred;

no default or event of default with respect to the debt securities to be defeased has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a default or event of default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit);

such legal defeasance or covenant defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than the indenture) to which we or any of our subsidiaries are a party or by which we or any of our subsidiaries are bound;

we must deliver to the trustee an officers’ certificate stating that the deposit was not made by us with the intent of preferring the holders of debt securities over the other creditors of ours with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors of ours or others; and

we must deliver to the trustee an officers’ certificate and an opinion of counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the legal defeasance or the covenant defeasance have been complied with.

Satisfaction and Discharge

We may discharge certain obligations to the holders of any debt securities of any series that have not already been delivered to the trustee for cancellation and that either have become due and payable or will become due and payable within one year (or scheduled for redemption within one year) if we deposit with the trustee, in trust, funds in the currency in which such debt securities are payable in an amount sufficient to pay the entire indebtedness on debt securities of such series with respect to principal and any premium and interest to the date of such deposit (if such debt securities have then become due and payable) or to the maturity date of such debt securities, as the case may be.

Concerning the Trustee

At all times, the trustee must be organized and doing business under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and must comply with all applicable requirements under the Trust Indenture Act.

The trustee may resign at any time by giving us written notice or may be removed:

by act of the holders of a majority in principal amount of a series of outstanding debt securities; or

if it (i) fails to comply with the obligations imposed upon it under the Trust Indenture Act; (ii) is not organized and doing business under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia; (iii) becomes incapable of acting as trustee; or (iv) or a court takes certain actions relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization.

If the trustee resigns, is removed or becomes incapable of acting, or if a vacancy occurs in the office of the trustee for any cause, we, by or pursuant to a board resolution, will promptly appoint a successor trustee or trustees with respect to the debt securities of such series. We will give written notice to holders of the relevant series of debt securities, of each resignation and each removal of the trustee with respect to the debt securities of such series and each appointment of a successor trustee. Upon the appointment of any successor trustee, we, the retiring trustee and such successor trustee, will execute and deliver a supplemental indenture in which each successor trustee will accept such appointment and which will contain such provisions as necessary or desirable to transfer to such successor trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring trustee with respect to the relevant series of debt securities.

If the trustee becomes a creditor of us or any Guarantor, the indenture limits the right of the trustee to obtain payment of claims in certain cases, or to realize on certain property received in respect of any such claim as security or otherwise. The trustee will be permitted to engage in other transactions; however, if it acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as trustee or resign.

The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding debt securities will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the trustee, subject to certain exceptions. The indenture provides that in case an event of default occurs and is continuing, the trustee will be required, in the exercise of its power, to use the degree of care of a prudent man in the conduct of his own affairs. Subject to such provisions, the trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the indenture at the request of any holder of the debt securities, unless such holder has offered to the trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.

New York Law to Govern

The indenture will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made or instruments entered into and, in each case, performed in that state.
