<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">An investment in the notes involves certain risks. You should carefully consider the risks described below and the risk factors included in our Annual
Report on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">10-K</FONT> for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2016, as well as the other information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, before
making an investment decision. Our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks. The trading price of our notes could decline due to any of these risks, and you may lose all or
part of your investment. This prospectus supplement also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. See above under &#147;Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information&#148;. Our actual results could
differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including the risks faced by us described below and elsewhere included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the
accompanying prospectus. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL" ALIGN="center"><B>Risks Relating to the Notes </B></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">Our obligations to you under the notes are unsecured and will be junior in right of payment to all of our future senior debt. This means that we cannot
make any payments on notes if we are in default on any of our senior indebtedness then outstanding. Therefore, in the event of our bankruptcy, liquidation or dissolution, our assets must be used to pay off our obligations to holders of our senior
indebtedness in full before any payments may be made on the notes. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">As of December&nbsp;31, 2016, we had minimal outstanding indebtedness that
ranked senior to the notes, excluding obligations of our subsidiaries. The indenture pursuant to which the notes will be issued does not limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness, including secured debt and other debt that ranks senior in
priority of payment to the notes. At December&nbsp;31, 2016, Cullen/Frost had approximately $100&nbsp;million of subordinated debt outstanding, which matured in February 2017. At December&nbsp;31, 2016, Cullen/Frost had approximately
$137.1&nbsp;million of debt issued by us to financing trust subsidiaries that have issued trust preferred securities and our subordinated guarantee of a subsidiary&#146;s debt (each of which will rank junior to the notes). </P>

operations through our bank and <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-bank</FONT> subsidiaries. As a result, our ability to make payments on the notes will depend primarily upon the receipt of dividends and other distributions from our subsidiaries.
If we do not receive sufficient cash dividends and other distributions from our subsidiaries, it is unlikely that we will have sufficient funds to make payments on the notes. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">Our subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities. Our subsidiaries have no obligation to pay any amounts due on the notes or to provide us with
funds to pay our obligations, whether by dividends, distributions, loans or other payments. In addition, any dividend payments, distributions, loans or advances to us by our subsidiaries in the future will require the generation of future earnings
by our subsidiaries and may require regulatory approval. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">Various federal and/or state laws and regulations limit the amount of dividends that Frost

and while maintaining its &#147;well-capitalized&#148; status, at December&nbsp;31, 2016, Frost Bank could pay aggregate dividends of up to $489.1&nbsp;million to Cullen/Frost without obtaining
prior regulatory approval. This amount is not necessarily indicative of amounts that may be paid or available to be paid in future periods. In the event Frost Bank is unable to pay dividends to Cullen/Frost, Cullen/Frost may not be able to service
debt, pay obligations or pay dividends on the Corporation&#146;s preferred and common stock. The inability to receive dividends from Frost Bank could have a material adverse effect on the Corporation&#146;s business, financial condition and results
of operations. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">In addition, our right to participate in any distribution of assets of any of our subsidiaries upon the subsidiary&#146;s
liquidation or otherwise will generally be subject to the prior claims of creditors of that subsidiary. Your ability as a holder of the notes to benefit indirectly from that distribution also will be subject to these prior claims. The notes are not
guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries. As a result, the notes will be effectively subordinated to all existing and future liabilities and obligations of our subsidiaries. Therefore, you should look only to our assets for payments on the notes. At
December&nbsp;31, 2016, our subsidiaries had, in the aggregate, outstanding debt and other liabilities, including deposits, of approximately $27.3&nbsp;billion that would effectively rank senior to the notes in case of liquidation or otherwise. </P>

our credit ratings will generally affect the resale value of the notes. Accordingly, you should consult your own financial and legal advisors as to the risks entailed by an investment in the notes and the suitability of investing in the notes in

maturity date, you will receive only 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, in each case plus accrued interest on the notes to be redeemed to the date on which the notes are to be redeemed, as described below under
&#147;Description of the Notes&#151;Optional Redemption&#148;. You should not expect the notes to be redeemed prior to their scheduled maturity date. </P>

Federal Reserve rules and guidelines regarding capital adequacy. We intend to treat the notes as &#147;Tier 2 capital&#148; under these rules and guidelines. The Federal Reserve guidelines generally require us to review the effects of the cash
payment of Tier 2 capital instruments, such as the notes, on our overall financial condition. Moreover, pursuant to federal law and Federal Reserve regulations, a bank holding company is required to act as a source of financial and managerial
strength to each of its banking subsidiaries and commit resources to their support, including the guarantee of capital plans of an undercapitalized bank subsidiary. Such support may be required at times when a holding company may not otherwise be
inclined to provide it. As a result of the foregoing, we may be unable to pay accrued interest on the notes on one or more of the scheduled interest payment dates or at any other time or the principal of the notes at the maturity of the notes. </P>

assumed and would be required to cure immediately any deficit under any commitment we have to any of the federal banking agencies to maintain the capital of Frost Bank and any other insured depository institution for which we have such a
responsibility, and any claim for breach of such obligation would generally have priority over most other unsecured claims. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">Cullen/Frost is a legal entity separate and distinct from Frost Bank and its other subsidiaries. As a financial holding company and a bank holding
company, Cullen/Frost is regulated under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the &#147;<I>BHC Act</I>&#148;), and its subsidiaries are subject to inspection, examination and supervision by the Federal Reserve. The BHC Act provides
generally for &#147;umbrella&#148; regulation of financial holding companies such as Cullen/Frost by the Federal Reserve, and for functional regulation of banking activities by bank regulators, securities activities by securities regulators, and
insurance activities by insurance regulators. The Federal Reserve examines us periodically and prepares reports for the consideration of our board of directors on any operating deficiencies that they may identify. While the Federal Reserve
historically has expected bank holding companies to act as a source of strength to their bank subsidiaries, effective July&nbsp;21, 2011, we are required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 to act as a source of
strength for Frost Bank and for any other depository institution subsidiary of ours in the future. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">Cullen/Frost is also under the jurisdiction of
the SEC and is subject to the disclosure and regulatory requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Exchange Act, as administered by the SEC. Cullen/Frost&#146;s common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE,
under the trading symbol &#147;CFR&#148;, and we are subject to the rules of the NYSE for listed companies. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">Frost Bank is a Texas state-chartered
bank that is a member of the Federal Reserve System and is subject to inspection, examination and supervision by the Federal Reserve, the Texas Department of Banking and the FDIC. Many of the Corporation&#146;s
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-bank</FONT> subsidiaries also are subject to regulation by the Federal Reserve and other federal and state agencies. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">There are numerous governmental requirements and regulations that affect our business activities. For a discussion of the material elements of the
regulatory framework applicable to bank holding companies and their subsidiaries and specific information relevant to Cullen/Frost, please refer to our Annual Report on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">10-K</FONT> for the year ended
December&nbsp;31, 2016, incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement, and any subsequent reports we file with the SEC that are incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement. This regulatory framework is intended primarily for
the protection of depositors and the federal deposit insurance funds and not for the protection of security holders, such as holders of the notes. As a result of this regulatory framework, our earnings are affected by actions of the Federal Reserve,
the FDIC and the Texas Department of Banking, among other factors. A change in applicable statutes, regulations or regulatory policy may have a material adverse effect on our business and the notes. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL"><I>The following is a brief description of the terms of the notes and the indenture. It does not purport to be complete in all respects. This
description is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the notes and the indenture, which has been filed with the SEC and are available upon request from Cullen/Frost. </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">The notes will be issued pursuant to the indenture between Cullen/Frost and The Bank of New York Mellon, as indenture trustee. We refer to the
indenture, as amended and supplemented, as the &#147;<I>indenture</I>&#148;, and to The Bank of New York Mellon or its successor, as indenture trustee, as the &#147;<I>trustee</I>&#148;. You should read the indenture for provisions that may be
important to you. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">The indenture does not limit the amount of senior or subordinated debt that we or our subsidiaries may incur either under the
indenture or other indentures, loan agreements or other instruments to which we or our subsidiaries become a party. The notes are not convertible or exchangeable for our common stock or preferred stock. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">In this section, references to &#147;<I>holders</I>&#148; mean those who own notes registered in their own names, on the books that we or the trustee
maintain for this purpose, and not those who own beneficial interests in notes issued in book-entry form through the depositary. Owners of beneficial interests in the notes should read the section below entitled &#147;Book-Entry Procedures and
Settlement&#148;. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL" ALIGN="center"><B>General </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">We will issue
$100,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the notes on March 17, 2017. We have the right to issue additional notes of this series in the future without the consent of the holders of the notes offered hereby. Any such additional notes would have the
same terms as the notes being offered hereby (except for the issue date and public offering price). If issued, any such additional notes will become part of the same series as the notes being offered hereby. The notes are subordinated in right of
payment to all our senior indebtedness and effectively subordinated to all existing and future debt and all other liabilities of our subsidiaries. As of December&nbsp;31, 2016, Cullen/Frost had minimal outstanding indebtedness that would rank senior
to the notes. In addition, as of that date, the aggregate amount of all debt and other liabilities of our subsidiaries, including deposits, that would effectively rank senior to the notes was approximately $27.3&nbsp;billion. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">The notes will not be savings accounts, deposits or other obligations of any of our bank or <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-bank</FONT>
subsidiaries and will not be insured or guaranteed by the FDIC or any other governmental agency or instrumentality. The notes are ineligible as collateral for a loan or extension of credit from us or any of our subsidiaries. We do not intend to
apply for listing of the notes on any securities exchange. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL" ALIGN="center"><B>Maturity; Interest </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">The notes will mature on March 17, 2027. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">The notes
will bear interest at an annual rate equal to 4.500%. Interest on the notes will be payable semi-annually in arrears on March 17 and September 17 of each year (each such date, an &#147;<I>interest payment date</I>&#148;), beginning on September 17,
2017, to the persons in whose names the notes are registered at the close of business on the preceding February 28 and August 31 of each year. Interest on the notes at the maturity date will be payable to the persons to whom principal is payable.
Interest on the notes will be computed on the basis of a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">360-day</FONT> year consisting of twelve <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">30-day</FONT> months. Interest payments on the notes will be the amount of interest
accrued from and including March 17, 2017 or the most recent interest payment date on which interest has been paid to but excluding the interest payment date or the maturity date, as the case may be. </P>

payment of interest and principal will be made on the next day that is a business day, and no interest on the notes or such payment will accrue for the period from and after such interest payment date or maturity date, as the case may be. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">When we refer to a &#147;<I>business day</I>&#148; with respect to the notes, we mean any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is neither a legal
holiday nor a day on which banking institutions in The City of New York are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close. </P>

holding company and a legal entity separate and distinct from our subsidiaries, our right to participate in any distribution of assets of any subsidiary upon its liquidation, reorganization or otherwise, and the note holders&#146; ability to benefit
indirectly from such distribution, would be subject to prior creditors&#146; claims, except to the extent that we ourselves may be a creditor of that subsidiary with recognized claims. Claims on Frost Bank by creditors other than us include
long-term debt and substantial obligations with respect to deposit liabilities and federal funds purchased, securities sold under repurchase agreements, other short-term borrowings and various other financial obligations. </P>

redeemable, in whole or in part, at our option at any time or from time to time on or after February 17, 2027 and are not subject to any sinking fund or similar provisions. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">Under the Federal Reserve&#146;s risk-based capital guidelines applicable to bank holding companies, any redemption of the notes is subject to prior
approval of the Federal Reserve. The redemption price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">Notice of any redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of notes to be redeemed at
its registered address. Unless we default in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the notes or portions thereof called for redemption. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">We may not redeem the notes in part if the principal amount has been accelerated and such acceleration has not been rescinded or unless all accrued and
unpaid interest has been paid in full on all outstanding notes for all interest periods terminating on or before the redemption date. If we redeem the notes in part, the trustee will select the notes to be redeemed in principal amounts of $1,000 or
any integral multiple on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate. In the case of notes issued in global form, DTC shall select book-entry interests in such notes as described under
&#147;<I>Book-Entry Procedures and Settlement</I>&#148;. The Trustee shall not be liable for selections made by it in accordance with this paragraph or for selections made by DTC. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">In the event of any redemption, neither we nor the trustee will be required to (a)&nbsp;issue, register the transfer of, or exchange, notes during a
period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of any such notes selected for redemption ending at the close of business on the day of mailing of notice of redemption; or (b)&nbsp;transfer
or exchange any notes so selected for redemption, except, in the case of any notes being redeemed in part, any portion thereof not to be redeemed. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">The notes are not mandatorily redeemable at the option of the holders. Holders should not expect the notes to be redeemed prior to their scheduled
maturity. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">The notes are subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all of our senior indebtedness. This means that, in certain circumstances
where we may not be making payments on all of our debt obligations as they become due, the holders of all of our senior indebtedness will be entitled to receive payment in full of all amounts that are due or will become due on their debt securities
before the holders of the notes will be entitled to receive any amounts under the notes. These circumstances include when we make a payment or distribute assets to creditors upon our liquidation, dissolution,

the global securities will be shown on, and the transfer of those ownership interests may be effected only through, records maintained by DTC or its nominee (with respect to participants) and the records of participants and indirect participants

Euroclear and Clearstream will hold interests in the global securities on behalf of their participants through customers&#146; securities accounts in their respective names on the books of their respective depositaries. All interests in a global

underwriters must close out any short position by purchasing shares in the open market. A short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the notes in the open market
after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of various bids for or purchases of the notes made by the underwriters in the open market while the offering is in progress. </P>

discount received by it because the representatives have repurchased shares sold by or for the account of such underwriter in stabilizing or short covering transactions. </P>

retarding a decline in the market price of the notes, and together with the imposition of the penalty bid, may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the notes. As a result, the price of the notes may be higher than the price
that otherwise might exist in the open market. If these activities are commenced, they may be discontinued by the underwriters at any time. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL" ALIGN="center"><B>T+5
