<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The term Debt Securities includes our Senior Debt Securities and our Subordinated Debt Securities. We will issue the Senior Debt
Securities in one or more series under our Indenture&#151;Senior Debt Securities (the Senior Indenture), dated June&nbsp;1, 2007, between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association (U.S. Bank), as trustee, and the Subordinated Debt Securities in
one or more series under a Subordinated Indenture between us and U.S. Bank, or another trustee chosen by us. The Senior Indenture and the Subordinated Indenture are called the Indentures in this prospectus. We have summarized selected provisions of
the Indentures below. The Senior Indenture and the form of the Subordinated Indenture have been filed as exhibits to the registration statement, and you should read the Indentures for provisions that may be important to you. In the summary below, we
have included references to section numbers of the Indentures so that you can easily locate these provisions. Capitalized terms used in this description have the meanings specified in the Indentures. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>General </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Unless the
applicable prospectus supplement or other offering materials state otherwise, the Senior Debt Securities will be our direct, unsecured obligations and will rank equally with all of our direct, other senior and unsubordinated debt. The Subordinated
Debt Securities will be our unsecured obligations and will rank junior in right of payment to our Senior Indebtedness, as described under the heading &#147;Additional Terms of Subordinated Debt Securities&#151;Subordination.&#148; </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Because we are a holding company that conducts all of our operations through our subsidiaries, our ability to meet our obligations under
the Debt Securities depends on the earnings and cash flows of those subsidiaries and the ability of those subsidiaries to pay dividends or to advance or repay funds to us. The debt securities are not guaranteed by our subsidiaries and, therefore,
holders of Debt Securities will generally have a junior position to claims of creditors of our subsidiaries, including trade creditors, debtholders, secured creditors, taxing authorities and guarantee holders and any preferred stockholders in our
subsidiaries. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Because the Debt Securities will be unsecured, they will effectively be subordinated to our secured debt to the
extent of the value of the assets securing such debt. In the event of a bankruptcy or similar proceeding involving us, our assets which serve as collateral will be available to satisfy the obligations under any secured debt before any payments are
made on the Debt Securities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Neither of the Indentures limits the amount of Debt Securities that we may issue under it or
protects the holders of Debt Securities if we engage in a highly leveraged transaction. We may issue Debt Securities from time to time under the Indentures in one or more series by entering into supplemental indentures or by our Board of Directors
or a duly authorized committee authorizing the issuance. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Debt Securities may be issued as original issue discount securities,
as defined in the Indentures, to be sold at a substantial discount below their principal amount. Original issue discount securities may include &#147;zero coupon&#148; securities that do not pay any cash interest for the entire term of the
securities. In the event of an acceleration of the maturity of any original issue discount security, the amount payable to the holder thereof upon an acceleration will be determined in the manner described in the applicable prospectus supplement or
other offering materials. Conditions pursuant to which payment of the principal of the Debt Securities may be accelerated will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement or other offering materials. Material federal income tax and other
considerations applicable to original issue discount securities will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement or other offering materials. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Under the Indentures, the terms of Debt Securities of any series may differ and we, without the consent of the holders of the Debt
Securities of any series, may reopen a previous series of Debt Securities and issue additional Debt Securities of that series or establish additional terms of that series, unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement or other
offering materials. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Provisions of a particular series </B></FONT></P>

liability of officers and directors to Smithfield or its shareholders is eliminated to the fullest extent permitted by Virginia law. Under Virginia law, the liability of an officer or director cannot be limited or eliminated if the officer or
director engages in willful misconduct or a knowing violation of the criminal law or of any federal or state securities law, including, without limitation, any claim of unlawful insider trading or manipulation of the market for any security.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">To the fullest extent permitted by Virginia law, the Smithfield Articles require it to indemnify any director or officer who
is, was or is threatened to be made a party to any proceeding because he or she is or was a director or officer of Smithfield, or because he or she is or was serving Smithfield or any other legal entity in any capacity at the request of Smithfield
while a director or officer of Smithfield, against any liability, including reasonable expenses and legal fees, incurred in the proceeding. Under the Smithfield Articles, &#147;proceeding&#148; is broadly defined to include pending, threatened or
completed actions of all types, including actions by or in the right of Smithfield. Similarly, &#147;liability&#148; is defined to include not only judgments, but also settlements, penalties, fines and certain excise taxes. The Smithfield Articles
also provide that it may, but is not obligated to, indemnify its other employees or agents. The indemnification provisions also require Smithfield to pay reasonable expenses incurred by a director or officer of Smithfield in a proceeding in advance
of the final disposition of any such proceeding, provided that the indemnified person undertakes to repay Smithfield if it is ultimately determined that such person was not entitled to indemnification. Virginia law does not permit indemnification
against willful misconduct or a knowing violation of the criminal law. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The rights of indemnification provided in the
Smithfield Articles are not exclusive of any other rights which may be available under any insurance or other agreement, by vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. However, no person shall be entitled to indemnification by
Smithfield to the extent such person is indemnified by another, including an insurer. In addition, the Smithfield Articles authorize Smithfield to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or
agent of Smithfield, whether or not Smithfield would have the power to provide indemnification to such person, to protect any such person against any liability arising from his or her service to Smithfield or any other legal entity at the request of
Smithfield. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>
