accompanying prospectus include &#147;forward-looking statements&#148; within the meaning of the federal securities laws. In addition, we, or our executive officers on our behalf, may from time to time make forward-looking statements in reports and
other documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (&#147;SEC&#148;) or in connection with oral statements made to the press, potential investors or others. All statements that are not historical facts are &#147;forward-looking
statements.&#148; Forward-looking statements may be indicated by words or phrases such as &#147;anticipate,&#148; &#147;estimate,&#148; &#147;plans,&#148; &#147;expects,&#148; &#147;projects,&#148; &#147;should,&#148; &#147;will,&#148;
&#147;believes&#148; or &#147;intends&#148; and similar words and phrases. These statements reflect management&#146;s current beliefs and are not guarantees of future performance. They involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results
to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statement. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Examples of forward-looking statements in this
prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and documents that are incorporated by reference in this prospectus and the accompanying prospectus include but are not limited to statements regarding operating results, the success of our internal
operating plans, our expectations regarding our ability to generate operating cash flows and reduce debt and associated interest expense, profit and cash flow expectations, the prospects for newly acquired businesses to be integrated and contribute
to future growth and our expectations regarding growth through acquisitions. Important assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements include, among others, assumptions regarding demand for our products, the cost, timing and success of
product upgrades and new product introductions, raw materials costs, expected pricing levels, the timing and cost of expected capital expenditures, expected outcomes of pending litigation, competitive conditions, general economic conditions and
expected synergies relating to acquisitions, joint ventures and alliances. These assumptions could prove inaccurate. Although we believe that the estimates and projections reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, our expectations
may prove to be incorrect. Factors that might cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the section entitled &#147;Risk Factors&#148; in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and our Quarterly Reports on
Form 10-Q, as amended, incorporated by reference herein. You should understand that the following important factors, in addition to those discussed in the incorporated documents, could affect our future results, and could cause those results or
other outcomes to differ materially from those estimates or projections in the forward-looking statements: </P> <P STYLE="font-size:6pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On December 6, 2016, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the &#147;Merger Agreement&#148;) with Project Diamond Holdings Corp.
Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, Dash I, Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiary, will merge (the &#147;Deltek acquisition&#148;) with and into Project Diamond Holdings Corp., the parent of Deltek, Inc., with Project Diamond
Holdings Corp. surviving as our wholly owned subsidiary on the closing date (the &#147;Deltek Closing Date&#148;). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The aggregate purchase
price payable on the Deltek Closing Date is approximately $2.8 billion in cash.&nbsp;Closing of the Deltek acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions, including the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under the
Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvement Act of 1976, as amended (the &#147;HSR Act&#148;). The net proceeds from the sale of the Notes, together with cash on hand and borrowings under our 2016 facility, will be used to fund the Deltek acquisition
purchase price. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Deltek is a leading provider of enterprise software and information solutions for government contractors, professional
services firms and other project-and people-based businesses.&nbsp;For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2015, and the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2016, Deltek had total revenues of approximately $466.5 million and $352.2 million, gross
profit of approximately $304.6 million and $235.5 million, and net cash provided by operating activities of approximately $97.7 million and $42.5 million.</P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As of September&nbsp;30, 2016, Deltek had current deferred revenues of approximately $179.7 million.&nbsp;We are in the very early stages of
determining the fair value of Deltek&#146;s deferred revenues as required under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (&#147;GAAP&#148;).&nbsp;Fair value reductions in the amount of Deltek&#146;s deferred revenue will reduce the amount we
recognize as revenue, although not the cash we receive, from Deltek&#146;s operations following the Deltek Closing Date. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Deltek&#146;s
financial information presented above has been prepared substantially in accordance with GAAP applicable to private companies. Following the Deltek Closing Date, we will be required to file with the SEC historical financial information for Deltek
that is prepared in accordance with GAAP applicable to public companies, as well as related pro forma financial information giving effect to the Deltek acquisition on our financial results for those periods. The historical financial information for
Deltek included in those SEC filings may differ from the amounts presented above as a result of changes that may be required to present such statements in accordance with GAAP applicable to public companies. In addition, in July 2016, Deltek itself
acquired Union Square, a provider of project information and collaboration software for architecture, engineering and construction practices, for $44 million, net of cash. Deltek&#146;s financial information presented above only includes the impact
of Union Square from the date of its acquisition. Furthermore, Deltek has not completed its analysis of acquisition adjustments relating to Union Square required under GAAP, which is likely to reduce the amount of revenue, gross profit and deferred
revenue that will be reflected in Deltek&#146;s historical financial information we file with the SEC. This offering is not conditioned upon the consummation of the Deltek acquisition. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On October&nbsp;31, 2016, we closed the acquisition of iSqFt Parent Corp. (d/b/a ConstructConnect), a leading provider of cloud-based data,
collaboration and workflow automation solutions to the commercial construction industry.&nbsp;ConstructConnect&#146;s software as a service (SaaS) solutions have over 800,000 users spanning general contractors, subcontractors, and building product
manufacturers throughout the U.S. and Canada.&nbsp;The purchase price for the ConstructConnect acquisition was $631 million. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Unless
otherwise indicated, the financial information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus does not include the financial impact of the Deltek or ConstructConnect acquisitions.</P>

in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. In particular, you should read the risk factors described below and the risk factors incorporated by reference from our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December&nbsp;31,
2015 and our Quarterly Reports on <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Form&nbsp;10-Q</FONT> for the quarters ended March&nbsp;31, 2016,&nbsp;June&nbsp;30, 2016 and September&nbsp;30, 2016. </P>

our obligations exclusively and are not the obligations of any of our subsidiaries. Substantially all of our operations are conducted through our subsidiaries. As a result, our cash flow and ability to service our debt, including the Notes, depend
upon the earnings of our subsidiaries and the ability of our subsidiaries to distribute their earnings, loans or other payments to us. Our subsidiaries are separate legal entities that have no obligation to pay any amounts due under the Notes or to
make any funds available therefor, whether by dividends, loans or other payments. Except to the extent we are a creditor with separately recognized claims against our subsidiaries, all claims of creditors of our subsidiaries, including trade
creditors, and holders of preferred stock, if any, will have priority with respect to the assets of such subsidiaries over our claims (and therefore the claims of our creditors, including holders of the Notes), and our subsidiaries may enter into
future borrowing arrangements that limit their ability to transfer funds to us. Consequently, your Notes will be structurally subordinated to all liabilities, including trade payables, of any of our subsidiaries and any subsidiaries that we may in
the future acquire or establish. As of September&nbsp;30, 2016, our subsidiaries had $760&nbsp;million of liabilities. In addition, the indenture governing the Notes permits our subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, and does not contain any
limitation on the amount of other liabilities, such as trade payables, that may be incurred by our subsidiaries. Thus, the amount of these liabilities may increase in the future. </P>

indebtedness we may incur. The indenture governing the Notes does not limit the amount of additional debt that we and our subsidiaries may incur, permits us to incur secured debt under specified circumstances and permits our subsidiaries to incur
secured debt without restriction. If we incur additional secured debt, our assets securing any such indebtedness will be subject to prior claims by our secured creditors. In the event of our bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganization,
dissolution or other winding up, or upon any acceleration of the Notes, our assets that secure other indebtedness will be available to pay obligations on the Notes only after all other such debt secured by those assets has been repaid in full. Any
remaining assets will be available to you ratably with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated creditors, including trade creditors. If there are not sufficient assets remaining to pay all these creditors, then all or a portion of the Notes
then outstanding would remain unpaid. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The negative covenants in the indenture that governs the Notes provide limited protection to

not apply to our subsidiaries and contain exceptions that will allow us to incur liens with respect to material assets. See &#147;Description of Debt Securities&#151;Certain Covenants&#148; in the accompanying prospectus. In light of these
exceptions, your Notes may be structurally or effectively subordinated to new lenders. The indenture does not limit the amount of additional debt that we or our subsidiaries may incur. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We entered into a credit agreement dated September&nbsp;23, 2016 that contains certain covenants restricting our operations. For example, the
agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants which, among other things, limit our ability to incur new debt, enter into certain mergers and acquisitions, sell assets and grant liens, make restricted payments (including the payment of
dividends on our common stock) and capital expenditures, or change our line of business. We are also subject to financial covenants which require us to limit our Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio and to maintain a minimum Consolidated Interest
Coverage Ratio, in each case as defined in the credit agreement. On December 2, 2016, we amended the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio covenant to permit us to issue the Notes prior to consummating the Deltek acquisition. Our ability to meet the
financial covenants or requirements in our credit agreement may be affected by events beyond our control, and we may not be able to satisfy such covenants and requirements. A breach of these covenants or our inability to comply with the financial
ratios, tests or other restrictions contained in our facility could result in an event of default under this credit agreement. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under our credit agreement, and the expiration of any grace periods, the
lenders could elect to declare all amounts outstanding under the credit facility, together with accrued interest, to be immediately due and payable. If this were to occur, our assets may not be sufficient to fully repay the amounts due under this
facility or our other indebtedness, including the Notes. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Additional debt offerings may have adverse consequences to you.
</I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We may incur additional indebtedness in the future, which may have important consequences for you as a holder of the Notes,
including making it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to the Notes as a result of additional interest payment expenses, a loss in the trading value of your Notes and a risk that the credit rating of your Notes may be
lowered. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The provisions of the Notes will not necessarily protect you in the event of certain highly leveraged transactions or

require us to repurchase the Notes as provided in, and on the terms set forth in, the Notes. However, the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions will not afford you protection in the event of certain highly leveraged transactions that may
adversely affect you. For example, any leveraged recapitalization, refinancing, restructuring or acquisition initiated by us generally will not constitute a Change of Control that would potentially lead to a Change of Control Triggering Event. As a
result, we could enter into any such transaction even though the transaction could increase the total amount of our outstanding indebtedness, adversely affect our capital structure or credit rating or otherwise adversely affect the holders of the
Notes. These transactions may not involve a change in voting power or beneficial ownership or result in a downgrade in the ratings of the Notes, or, even if they do, may not necessarily constitute a Change of Control Triggering Event that affords
you the protections described in this prospectus supplement. If any such transaction were to occur, the value of your Notes could decline. In addition, significant changes in the composition of our board of directors will not in and of themselves
constitute a Change of Control (as defined under &#147;Description of the Notes&#151;Repurchase Upon Change of Control Triggering Event&#148;). </P>

ability to repurchase the notes for cash may be limited by law or the terms of other agreements relating to our indebtedness outstanding at the time, which agreements may provide that a Change of Control Triggering Event constitutes an event of
default or prepayment under such other indebtedness. Our failure to make such a repurchase would result in a default under such series of notes. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In September 2009, we completed a public offering of $500 million aggregate principal amount of 6.25% senior unsecured notes due September 2019
(the &#147;2019 Notes&#148;), of which all amounts remain outstanding as of the date of this prospectus supplement. Net proceeds of $496 million were used to pay off our $350 million term loan originally due July 2010 and the outstanding revolver
balance under the 2008 credit facility. We recorded a $0.4 million non-cash debt extinguishment charge related to the early repayment of the term loan portion of the 2008 facility. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The 2019 Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.25%&nbsp;per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on March&nbsp;1 and September&nbsp;1 of
each year, beginning March&nbsp;1, 2010. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We may redeem some or all of these 2019 Notes at any time or from time to time, at 100% of their

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In December 2003, we issued $230 million of senior subordinated convertible notes due 2034 at an original issue discount of 60.498%, resulting
in an effective yield of 3.75%&nbsp;per year to maturity. Interest on the notes was payable semi-annually, beginning July&nbsp;15, 2004, until January&nbsp;15, 2009, after which cash interest is not paid on the notes prior to maturity unless
contingent cash interest becomes payable. As of January&nbsp;15, 2009, interest is recognized at the effective rate of 3.75% and represents accrual of original issue discount, excluding any contingent cash interest that may become payable. We will
pay contingent cash interest to the holders of the notes during any six month period commencing after January&nbsp;15, 2009 if the average trading price of a note for a five trading day measurement period preceding the applicable six month period
equals 120% or more of the sum of the issue price, accrued original issue discount and accrued cash interest, if any, for such note. The contingent cash interest payable per note in respect of any six month period will equal the annual rate of
0.25%. In accordance with this criterion, contingent interest has been paid for each six month period since January&nbsp;15, 2009. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As of
September&nbsp;30, 2016, approximately $262,000 of the convertible notes remained outstanding. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The notes are unsecured senior

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As originally issued, each $1,000 principal amount of the notes will be convertible at the option of the holder into 12.422 shares of our
common stock (giving effect to the 2-for-1 stock split effective August&nbsp;26, 2005 and subject to further adjustment), if (i)&nbsp;the sale price of our common stock reaches, or the trading price of the notes falls below, specified thresholds,
(ii)&nbsp;if the notes are called for redemption or (iii)&nbsp;if specified corporate transactions have occurred. Upon conversion, we would have the right to deliver, in lieu of common stock, cash or a combination of cash and common stock. On
November&nbsp;19, 2004, we began a consent solicitation to amend the notes such that we would pay the same conversion value upon conversion of the notes, but would change how the conversion value is paid. In lieu of receiving exclusively shares of

agency&#148; registered pursuant to the provisions of Section&nbsp;17A of the Exchange Act. DTC was created to hold securities of institutions that have accounts with DTC (&#147;participants&#148;) and to facilitate the clearance and settlement of
securities transactions among its participants in such securities through electronic book-entry changes in accounts of the participants, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of securities certificates. DTC&#146;s participants include
securities brokers and dealers (which may include the underwriters), banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. Access to DTC&#146;s book-entry system is also available to others such as banks, brokers, dealers
and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a participant, whether directly or indirectly. </P>

Ownership of beneficial interests in each global note will be shown on, and the transfer of those ownership interests will be effected only through, records maintained by DTC (with respect to participants&#146; interests) and such participants (with

purposes under the indenture, the Notes and applicable law. Except as set forth below, owners of beneficial interests in a global note will not be entitled to receive certificated Notes and will
not be considered to be the owners or holders of any Notes under the global note. We understand that under existing industry practice, in the event an owner of a beneficial interest in a global note desires to take any actions that DTC, as the
holder of the global note, is entitled to take, DTC would authorize the participants to take such action, and that participants would authorize beneficial owners owning through such participants to take such action or would otherwise act upon the
instructions of beneficial owners owning through them. No beneficial owner of an interest in a global note will be able to transfer the interest except in accordance with DTC&#146;s applicable procedures, in addition to those provided for under the
indenture. Because DTC can only act on behalf of participants, who in turn act on behalf of others, the ability of a person having a beneficial interest in a global note to pledge that interest to persons that do not participate in the DTC system,
or otherwise to take actions in respect of that interest, may be impaired by the lack of physical certificate of that interest. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">All
payments on the Notes represented by a global note registered in the name of and held by DTC or its nominee will be made to DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner and holder of the global note. </P>

credit participants&#146; accounts with payments in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in the principal amount of the global note as shown on the records of DTC or its nominee. We also expect that payments by participants
to owners of beneficial interests in the global note held through such participants will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices as is now the case with securities held for accounts for customers registered in the names of
nominees for such customers. These payments, however, will be the responsibility of such participants and indirect participants, and neither we, the underwriters, the trustee nor any paying agent will have any responsibility or liability for any
aspect of the records relating to, or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in any global note or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests or for any other aspect of
the relationship between DTC and its participants or the relationship between such participants and the owners of beneficial interests in the global note. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for certificated Notes, each global note may not be transferred except as a whole by DTC
to a nominee of DTC or by a nominee of DTC to DTC or another nominee of DTC. Transfers between participants in DTC will be effected in the ordinary way in accordance with DTC rules and will be settled in same-day funds. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We expect that DTC will take any action permitted to be taken by a holder of Notes (including the presentation of Notes for exchange as
described below) only at the direction of one or more participants to whose account the DTC interests in a global note are credited and only in respect of such portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes as to which such participant or
participants has or have given such direction. Although we expect that DTC will agree to the foregoing procedures in order to facilitate transfers of interests in each global note among participants of DTC, DTC is under no obligation to perform or
continue to perform such procedures, and such procedures may be discontinued at any time. Neither we, the underwriters, nor the trustee will have any responsibility for the performance or nonperformance by DTC or their participants or indirect
participants of their respective obligations under the rules and procedures governing their operations. Under certain circumstances described in the accompanying prospectus, DTC may exchange the global notes for Notes in certificated form of like
tenor and of an equal principal amount, in authorized denominations. These certificated Notes will be registered in such name or names as DTC shall instruct the trustee. It is expected that such instructions may be based upon directions received by
DTC from participants with respect to ownership of beneficial interests in global securities. The certificated Notes will be subject to certain restrictions on registration of transfers described under &#147;Transfer Restrictions&#148; and will bear
the legend set forth thereunder. The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC&#146;s book-entry system has been obtained from sources that we believe to be reliable, but we do not take responsibility for its accuracy. </P>

must comply with the rules and procedures of those systems. Those systems could change their rules and procedures at any time. We have no control over those systems or their participants, and we take no responsibility for their activities.
Transactions between participants in Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, on the one hand, and other participants in DTC, on the other hand, would also be subject to DTC&#146;s rules and procedures. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Investors will be able to make and receive through Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg payments, deliveries, transfers, exchanges, notices
and other transactions involving any securities held through those systems only on days when those systems are open for business. Those systems may not be open for business on days when banks, brokers and other institutions are open for business in
the United States. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, because of time-zone differences, U.S. investors who hold their interests in the Notes through these
systems and wish, on a particular day, to transfer their interests, or to receive or make a payment or delivery or exercise any other right with respect to their interests, may find that the transaction will not be effected until the next business
day in Luxembourg or Brussels, as applicable. Thus, investors who wish to exercise rights that expire on a particular day may need to act before the expiration date. In addition, investors who hold their interests through both DTC and Euroclear or
Clearstream, Luxembourg may need to make special arrangements to finance any purchase or sales of their interests between the U.S. and European clearing systems, and those transactions may settle later than transactions within one clearing system.

under the applicable Treasury Regulations. Our position is not binding on the Internal Revenue Service (&#147;IRS&#148;). If the IRS takes a position contrary to that described above, you may be
required to accrue interest income based upon a &#147;comparable yield&#148; (as defined in the Treasury Regulations) determined at the time of issuance of the Notes (which is not expected to differ significantly from the actual yield on the Notes),
with adjustments to such accruals when any contingent payments are made that differ from the payments based on the comparable yield. In addition, any income on the sale or other taxable disposition of the Notes would be treated as ordinary income
rather than as capital gain. You should consult your tax adviser regarding the tax consequences if the Notes were treated as contingent payment debt instruments. The remainder of this discussion assumes that the Notes are not treated as contingent
payment debt instruments. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Payments of Interest </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Stated interest paid on a Note will be taxable to you as ordinary interest income at the time it accrues or is received, in accordance with
your method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes. It is expected, and this discussion assumes, that the Notes will be issued without original issue discount for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If, however, a Note&#146;s principal
amount exceeds its issue price by at least a statutorily defined de minimis amount, a U.S. Holder will be required to include such excess in income as original issue discount, as it accrues, in accordance with a constant-yield method based on a
compounding of interest before the receipt of cash payments attributable to this income. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of the
Notes </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Upon the sale or other taxable disposition of a Note, you will recognize taxable gain or loss equal to the difference
between the amount realized on the sale or other taxable disposition and your tax basis in the Note. Your tax basis in a Note generally will equal the cost of your Note. For these purposes, the amount realized does not include any amount
attributable to accrued interest, which is treated as described under &#147;Payments of Interest&#148; above. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Gain or loss realized on
the sale or other taxable disposition of a Note will generally be capital gain or loss and will be long-term capital gain or loss if at the time of the sale or other taxable disposition the Note has been held for more than one year. Long-term
capital gains recognized by non-corporate taxpayers are subject to reduced tax rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. </P>

disposition of the Notes unless you are an exempt recipient. You may also be subject to backup withholding on these payments in respect of your Notes unless you provide your taxpayer identification number and otherwise comply with applicable
requirements of the backup withholding rules or you provide proof of an applicable exemption. Amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules are not additional taxes and may be refunded or credited against your U.S. federal income tax

dispositions after December&nbsp;31, 2018) on gross proceeds of sales or redemptions of the Notes paid to &#147;foreign financial institutions&#148; (which is broadly defined for this purpose and in general includes investment vehicles) and certain
other non-U.S. entities unless various U.S. information reporting and due diligence requirements (generally relating to ownership by U.S. persons of interests in or accounts with those entities) have been satisfied, or an exemption applies. An
intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable non-U.S. country may modify these requirements. If FATCA withholding is imposed, a beneficial owner that is not a foreign financial institution generally will be entitled to a
refund of any amounts withheld by filing a U.S. federal income tax return (which may entail significant administrative burden). Prospective investors should consult their tax advisers regarding the effects of FATCA on their investment in the Notes.

parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the Notes on the date of this prospectus supplement or the following &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; business

the purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities, including potentially the Notes offered hereby. Any such credit default swaps or short positions could adversely affect future trading prices of the Notes

upgrades and new product introductions, raw materials costs, expected pricing levels, the timing and cost of expected capital expenditures, expected outcomes of pending litigation, competitive conditions, general economic conditions and expected
synergies relating to acquisitions, joint ventures and alliances. These assumptions could prove inaccurate. Although we believe that the estimates and projections reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, our expectations may prove

the issuance of a registered global security, the depositary will credit, on its book-entry registration and transfer system, the participants&#146; accounts with the respective principal or face
amounts of the securities beneficially owned by the participants. Any dealers, underwriters or agents participating in the distribution of the securities will designate the accounts to be credited. Ownership of beneficial interests in a registered
global security will be shown on, and the transfer of ownership interests will be effected only through, records maintained by the depositary, with respect to interests of participants, and on the records of participants, with respect to interests
of persons holding through participants. The laws of some states may require that some purchasers of securities take physical delivery of these securities in definitive form. These laws may impair your ability to own, transfer or pledge beneficial
interests in registered global securities. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">So long as the depositary, or its nominee, is the registered owner of a registered global
security, that depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of the securities represented by the registered global security for all purposes under the applicable indenture, warrant agreement or unit
agreement. Except as described below, owners of beneficial interests in a registered global security will not be entitled to have the securities represented by the registered global security registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled
to receive physical delivery of the securities in definitive form and will not be considered the owners or holders of the securities under the applicable indenture, warrant agreement or unit agreement. Accordingly, each person owning a beneficial
interest in a registered global security must rely on the procedures of the depositary for that registered global security and, if that person is not a participant, on the procedures of the participant through which the person owns its interest, to
exercise any rights of a holder under the applicable indenture, warrant agreement or unit agreement. We understand that under existing industry practices, if we request any action of holders or if an owner of a beneficial interest in a registered
global security desires to give or take any action that a holder is entitled to give or take under the applicable indenture, warrant agreement or unit agreement, the depositary for the registered global security would authorize the participants
holding the relevant beneficial interests to give or take that action, and the participants would authorize beneficial owners owning through them to give or take that action or would otherwise act upon the instructions of beneficial owners holding
through them. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Principal, premium, if any, and interest payments on debt securities, and any payments to holders with respect to warrants
or units, represented by a registered global security registered in the name of a depositary or its nominee will be made to the depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner of the registered global security. None of Roper,
the trustee, any warrant agent, unit agent or any other agent of Roper, agent of the trustee or agent of such warrant agent or unit agent will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to payments made on account of
beneficial ownership interests in the registered global security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to those beneficial ownership interests. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We expect that the depositary for any of the securities represented by a registered global security, upon receipt of any payment of principal,
premium, interest or other distribution of underlying securities or other property to holders on that registered global security, will immediately credit participants&#146; accounts in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests
in that registered global security as shown on the records of the depositary. We also expect that payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in a registered global security held through participants will be governed by standing
customer instructions and customary practices, as is now the case with the securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in &#147;street name,&#148; and will be the responsibility of those participants. </P>
