<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This document consists of two parts. The first part is the prospectus supplement, which describes specific terms of this offering of
notes and also adds to and updates information contained in the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. The
second part, the accompanying prospectus, gives more general information, some of which may not apply to this offering. If information in this prospectus supplement, or the information incorporated by
reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, is inconsistent with the accompanying prospectus, this prospectus supplement or the information incorporated by reference
into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus will apply and will supersede that information in the accompanying prospectus. Generally, when we refer to the prospectus, we are
referring to both the prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and the information incorporated by reference therein. </FONT></P>

should rely only on the information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. We have not, and the underwriters have not,
authorized any person to provide you with different information. If any person provides you with different or
inconsistent information, you should not rely on it. We are not, and the underwriters are not, making an offer to sell these securities in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
are a global asset management company with equity investments in leading boutique investment management firms (our "Affiliates"). Our innovative partnership approach allows each
Affiliate's management team to own significant equity in their firm while maintaining operational autonomy. Our strategy is to generate growth through the internal growth of existing Affiliates, as
well as through investments in new Affiliates. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
our investments in each of our Affiliates, we hold a substantial equity interest. The remaining equity interests are retained by the management of the Affiliate and enable Affiliate
managers to continue to participate in their firm's success. Our investment approach provides a degree of liquidity and diversification to principal owners of boutique investment management firms, and
also addresses the succession and ownership transition issues facing many founders and principal owners. Our partnership approach also ensures that Affiliates maintain operational autonomy in managing
their business, thereby preserving their firm's entrepreneurial culture and independence. In particular, our structures are designed to:</FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Although
we invest in firms that we anticipate will grow independently and without our assistance, we are committed to helping Affiliates identify opportunities for growth and leverage
the benefits of economies of scale. We assist our Affiliates in broadening global distribution, developing new products and providing strategic support and enhanced operational capabilities. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
believe that substantial opportunities to make investments in high-quality boutique investment management firms will continue to arise as their founders seek to
institutionalize their businesses through broader equity ownership, or approach retirement age and begin to plan for succession. Our management identifies select firms based on our thorough
understanding of the asset management industry, and has developed relationships with a significant number of these firms. Within our target universe, we seek the strongest and most stable firms with
the best growth prospects, which are typically characterized by a strong multi-generational management team and culture, with a commitment to building a firm for its longer-term success,
focused investment discipline and long-term investment track record, and diverse products and distribution channels. We are focused on investing in the highest quality boutique investment
management firms specializing in an array of investment styles and asset classes, including both traditional and alternative investment managers. We anticipate that we will have significant additional
investment opportunities across the global asset management industry, including the potential for investments in subsidiaries, divisions and other investment teams or products. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
of June&nbsp;30, 2012, we manage $384.6&nbsp;billion in assets through our Affiliates across a broad range of asset classes and investment styles in three principal distribution
channels: Mutual Fund, Institutional and High Net Worth. </FONT></P>

independent underwriter," as defined in FINRA Rule&nbsp;5121, is required to participate in the offering of the notes because the notes are "investment grade rated", as that term is defined in the rule. In compliance with FINRA Rule&nbsp;5121, no
underwriter having a conflict of interest under FINRA Rule&nbsp;5121 will confirm sales to any account over which it exercises discretionary authority without the specific written approval of the accountholder. See "Underwriting (Conflicts of

the purpose of computing the ratios of earnings to fixed charges, earnings consists of pre-tax income from continuing operations (before adjustment for
non-controlling interests in consolidated subsidiaries) plus fixed charges and as adjusted for distributed income of equity method investees. Fixed charges consists of our reported
interest expense (including imputed interest expense but excluding contingent payment obligation adjustments) plus the portion of rental expense deemed to represent interest expense. For the purposes
of these calculations, pre-tax income from continuing operations for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2011 and the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2012 exclude the effects of reductions
in the carrying value of
an indefinite-lived intangible asset and contingent payment obligation adjustments. Had these amounts not been excluded, the ratio of earnings to fixed charges for the year ended December&nbsp;31,
2011 and for the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2012 would have been 5.4x and 4.7x, respectively. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> The notes are unsecured.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The notes are unsecured. The indenture for the notes does not restrict our ability to incur additional indebtedness, including secured
indebtedness generally (other than indebtedness we incur for borrowed money that is secured by voting stock of our subsidiaries, which is restricted as described under "Description of
Notes&#151;Limitation on Liens" below). Holders of any secured indebtedness will have claims that are prior to your claims as holders of the notes, to the extent of the value of the assets
securing such indebtedness, in the event of any bankruptcy, liquidation or similar proceeding. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> The notes are structurally subordinated to all liabilities of our subsidiaries.  </I></B></FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;None of our subsidiaries has guaranteed or otherwise become obligated with respect to the notes. Accordingly, our right to receive
assets from any of our subsidiaries upon its bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization, and the right of holders of the notes to participate in those assets, is structurally subordinated to claims of
that subsidiary's creditors, including trade creditors. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> We are a holding company and require cash from our subsidiaries to make payments on the notes.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The notes are solely our obligation, and no other entity will have any obligation, contingent or otherwise, to make payments in
respect of the notes. We are a holding company for many direct and indirect subsidiaries. Our subsidiaries will have no obligation to make payments in respect of the notes. Accordingly, we depend on
dividends and other distributions from our subsidiaries to generate the funds necessary to meet our obligations under the indenture governing the notes, including interest payments. As described
above, as an equity holder of our subsidiaries, our ability to participate in any distribution of assets of any subsidiary is structurally subordinate to the claims of the creditors of that
subsidiary. The indenture governing the notes does not restrict the amount of unsecured debt that our subsidiaries may incur. If our ability to obtain cash from our subsidiaries is restricted, we may
be unable to fund required payments in respect of the notes. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> The indenture does not restrict the amount of additional debt that we may incur.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The notes and indenture under which the notes will be issued do not place any limitation on the amount of unsecured debt that we may
incur. Our incurrence of additional debt 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, a loss in the market value of your notes and a risk that the credit rating of the notes is lowered or withdrawn. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We will issue the notes under a base indenture and a supplemental indenture (collectively, the "indenture"), each to be entered into
upon the closing of this offering between Affiliated Managers Group,&nbsp;Inc., as issuer, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee, which we refer to as the "trustee." The terms of
the notes include those expressly set forth in the indenture and those made part of the indenture by reference to certain provisions of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, which we refer to
as the "Trust Indenture Act." </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You

the indenture and the form of certificate evidencing the notes because they, and not this description, define your rights as a holder of the notes. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
use the term "note" in this prospectus supplement to refer to each $25 principal amount of notes. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
notes will be issued as a series of senior debt securities under the indenture referred to above. The indenture does not limit the amount of other debt that we or our subsidiaries
may incur. We may, without the consent of the holders of the notes, issue additional notes which will be part of the same series as the notes offered hereby and which will have the same interest rate
and other terms (except for the issue date, issue price and, in some cases, the first interest payment date) as described in this prospectus supplement. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Payments in respect of the principal and interest on global notes registered in the name of The Depository Trust Company or its

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Any
certificated notes may be presented for payment at the office or agency designated by us (which will be in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York). Initially, the corporate
trust office of the trustee will serve as such office, as our paying agent and registrar. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
may change the paying agent or registrar without prior notice to the holders of the notes, and we may act as paying agent or registrar. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B> Listing  </B></FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We intend to apply to list the notes on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"). If the application is approved, we expect trading in the
notes to begin within 30&nbsp;days of August 8, 2012, the original issue date. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B> Ranking  </B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The notes will be our general unsecured obligations that rank senior in right of payment to all existing and future indebtedness that
is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the notes. The notes will rank equally in right of payment with all of our existing and future unsecured senior debt. The notes will effectively rank
junior to any of our secured indebtedness to the extent of the assets securing such indebtedness. In the event of our bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization or other winding up, our assets that
secure such secured indebtedness, if any, will be available to pay obligations on the notes only after all indebtedness under such secured indebtedness has been repaid in full from such assets. We
advise you that there may not be sufficient assets remaining to pay amounts due on any or all the notes then outstanding. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our
total indebtedness as of June&nbsp;30, 2012 was $1,401.8&nbsp;million. The notes will also be effectively subordinated in right of payment to all indebtedness and other
liabilities and commitments (including trade payables) of our subsidiaries. As of June&nbsp;30, 2012, our subsidiaries had $26.1&nbsp;million of indebtedness and other liabilities (excluding
intercompany liabilities). </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B> Interest  </B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The notes will bear interest at a rate of 6.375% per year. Interest will accrue from August&nbsp;8, 2012 and will be payable
quarterly in arrears on February&nbsp;15, May&nbsp;15, August&nbsp;15 and November&nbsp;15 of each year, beginning November&nbsp;15, 2012. Interest will be paid to the person in whose name a
note is registered at the close of business on February&nbsp;1, May&nbsp;1, August&nbsp;1 or November&nbsp;1, as the case may be (whether or not a business day), immediately preceding the
relevant interest payment date. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Interest
on the notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months. If any interest payment date falls on a date that is not
a business day, such payment of interest (or principal in the case of the final maturity date for the notes) will be postponed until the next succeeding business day, and no interest or other amount
will be paid as a result of any such postponement. A "business day" means each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday that is not a day on which the banking institutions in The City of New
York are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close or be closed. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The indenture will provide that, so long as any notes are outstanding, we will not create, assume, incur or guarantee any indebtedness
for money borrowed that is secured by any mortgage, pledge, lien, security interest or other encumbrance of any nature (each, a "lien") on any present or future voting stock of any of our
subsidiaries, unless we secure the notes equally and ratably with, or prior to, the indebtedness secured by such lien, for so long as such other indebtedness is so secured. If we secure the notes in
this manner, we have the option of securing any of our other indebtedness or obligations equally and ratably with the notes, as long as such other indebtedness or obligations are not subordinate to
the notes. This limitation will not apply to (a)&nbsp;liens on voting stock of a subsidiary at the time it becomes a subsidiary, including any renewals, extensions or refinancings of the
indebtedness secured by such lien, (b)&nbsp;liens securing intercompany indebtedness and (c)&nbsp;liens securing other indebtedness created, assumed, incurred or guaranteed by us if the aggregate
amount of the indebtedness so secured does not exceed $200,000,000. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The indenture will provide that we shall not consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially
all of our properties and assets to, another person unless (1)&nbsp;if we are not the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation, the resulting, surviving or transferee person is a corporation
organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and such person expressly assumes by supplemental indenture all of our obligations
under the notes and the indenture; (2)&nbsp;if, as a result of any such transaction, our properties or assets would become subject to a mortgage, pledge, lien, security interest or other encumbrance
that would not be permitted by the indenture, we or the resulting, surviving or transferee person shall take such steps as shall be necessary effectively to secure the notes equally and ratably with
(or prior to) all indebtedness secured thereby; (3)&nbsp;immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default has occurred and is continuing under the indenture and (4)&nbsp;other
conditions specified in the indenture are met. Upon any such consolidation, merger or transfer, the resulting, surviving or transferee person (if not us) shall succeed to, and may exercise every right
and power of, the Company under the indenture. </FONT></P>

to certain restrictions, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding notes are given the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the trustee. The indenture provides that in the event an event of default has occurred and is
continuing, the trustee will be required in the exercise of its powers to use the degree of care that a prudent person would use in the conduct of its own affairs. The trustee, however, may refuse to
follow any direction that conflicts with law or the indenture or that the trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other holder or that would involve the trustee in personal
liability. Prior to taking any action under the indenture, the trustee will be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or
not taking such action. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
indenture provides that if a default occurs and is continuing and is known to the trustee, the trustee must mail to each holder notice of the default within 90&nbsp;days after it
occurs. Except in the case of a default in the payment of principal of or interest on any note, the trustee may withhold notice if and so long as a committee of trust officers of the trustee in good
faith determines that withholding notice is in the interests of the holders. In addition, we are required to deliver to the trustee, within 120&nbsp;days after the end of each fiscal year, a
certificate indicating whether the signers thereof know of any default that occurred during the previous year. We are also required to deliver to the trustee, within 30&nbsp;days after the
occurrence thereof, written notice of any events which would constitute certain defaults, their status and what action we are taking or propose to take in respect thereof. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We may elect either (i)&nbsp;to defease and be discharged from any and all obligations with respect to the notes (except as
otherwise provided in the indenture) ("defeasance") or (ii)&nbsp;to be released from our obligations with respect to certain covenants that are described in the indenture ("covenant defeasance"),
upon the deposit with the trustee, in trust for such purpose, of money and/or government obligations that through the payment of principal and interest in accordance with their terms will provide
money (including U.S. government obligations) in an amount sufficient, without reinvestment in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of certified public accountants to pay the principal of, and
interest, on the notes to maturity or redemption, as the case may be. As a condition to defeasance or covenant defeasance, we must deliver to the trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the
holders of the notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance or covenant defeasance and will be subject to United States
federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance or covenant defeasance had not occurred. Such opinion of counsel, in the
case of defeasance under clause&nbsp;(i) above, must refer to and be based upon a ruling of the Internal Revenue Service or a change in applicable United States federal income tax law occurring
after the date of the indenture. We may exercise our defeasance option with respect to the notes notwithstanding our prior exercise of our covenant defeasance option. If we exercise our defeasance
option, payment of the notes may not be accelerated because of an event of default. </FONT></P>

was created to hold securities for its participants and to facilitate the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between its participants through electronic
book-entry changes to the accounts of its participants. DTC's participants include securities brokers and dealers, including the underwriters; banks and trust companies; clearing
corporations and other organizations. Indirect access to DTC's system is also available to others such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies; these indirect participants clear through or
maintain a custodial relationship with a DTC participant, either directly or indirectly. Investors who are not DTC participants may beneficially own securities held by or on behalf of DTC only through
DTC participants or indirect participants in DTC. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The following is a summary of certain material United States federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and
disposition of the notes by a holder that is a "U.S. Holder." </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I> Treatment of interest  </I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Stated interest on the notes will be taxable to a U.S. Holder as ordinary income as the interest is received or accrues in accordance
with the U.S. Holder's method of tax accounting. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><I> Treatment of taxable dispositions of notes  </I></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Upon the sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition (each, a "disposition") of a note, a U.S. Holder generally will
recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount received on such disposition (excluding amounts received in respect of accrued and unpaid interest, which will generally be taxable to
that U.S. Holder as described below) and the U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in the note. A U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in a note will be, in general, the cost of the note to the U.S. Holder
less any principal payments received. Gain or loss realized on the disposition of a note generally will be capital gain or loss by the U.S. Holder. Such gain or loss will be long-term
capital gain or loss if, at the time of such disposition, the note has been held for more than one year and otherwise generally will be short-term capital gain or loss. Net
long-term capital gain recognized by a non-corporate U.S. Holder generally is eligible for reduced rates of United States federal income taxation. The deductibility of capital
losses is subject to significant limitations. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If
a U.S. Holder disposes of a note between interest payment dates, a portion of the amount received by the U.S. Holder will reflect interest that has accrued on the note but has not
been paid as of the disposition date. That portion is treated as ordinary interest income and not as sale proceeds. </FONT></P>

rules may apply to Non-U.S. Holders that are subject to special treatment under the Code, including "controlled foreign corporations" and "passive foreign investment

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Subject to the discussion below concerning backup withholding and the HIRE Act, a Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to
United States federal income or withholding tax in respect of interest income on a note if the interest income qualifies for the "portfolio interest exception." Interest income on a note will qualify
for the "portfolio interest exception" if each of the following requirements is satisfied:</FONT></P>

</UL>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
certification requirement referred to above generally will be satisfied if the Non-U.S. Holder provides us or our paying agent with a statement on IRS
Form&nbsp;W-8BEN (or a suitable substitute or successor form), together with all appropriate attachments, signed under penalties of perjury, identifying the Non-U.S. Holder
and stating, among other things, that the Non-U.S. Holder is not a United States person (within the meaning of the Code). If the Non-U.S. Holder holds its notes through a
financial institution or other agent acting on the holder's behalf, the Non-U.S. Holder will be required to provide appropriate documentation to that agent, and that agent will then be
required to provide appropriate documentation to us or our paying agent (either directly or through other intermediaries). For payments made to foreign partnerships and certain other
pass-through entities, the certification requirement will generally apply to the partners or other interest holders rather than to the partnership or other pass-through entity.
We may be required to report annually to the IRS and to each Non-U.S. Holder the amount of interest paid to, and the tax withheld, if any, with respect to each Non-U.S. Holder.
Prospective Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding this certification requirement, and alternative methods for satisfying the certification requirement. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If
the requirements of the "portfolio interest exception" are not satisfied with respect to a Non-U.S. Holder, payments of interest to that Non-U.S. Holder will
be subject to a 30% United States withholding tax, unless another exemption or a reduced withholding rate applies. For example, if a Non-U.S. Holder qualifies for the benefits of an
applicable income tax treaty, such treaty may reduce or eliminate such tax, in which event a Non-U.S. Holder claiming the benefit of such treaty must </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Alternatively,
an exemption to the 30% United States withholding tax applies if the interest is effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder's conduct of a trade or
business in the United States and the Non-U.S. Holder provides an appropriate statement to that effect on a properly executed IRS Form&nbsp;W-8ECI (or a suitable substitute
or successor form). In the latter case, such Non-U.S. Holder generally will be subject to United States federal income tax with respect to all income from the notes in the same manner as
U.S. Holders, as described above, unless an applicable income tax treaty provides otherwise. In addition, such a Non-U.S. Holder that is a corporation may be subject to a branch profits
tax with respect to any such United States trade or business income at a rate of 30% (or at a reduced rate under an applicable income tax treaty). </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Subject to the discussion below concerning backup withholding and the HIRE Act, a Non-U.S. Holder generally will not be
subject to United States federal income tax on gain realized upon the taxable disposition of a note unless:</FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If
the first exception above applies, the Non-U.S. Holder generally will be subject to United States federal income tax at a rate of 30% (or at a reduced rate under an
applicable income tax treaty) on the amount by which capital gains allocable to United States sources (including gains from the taxable disposition of the note) exceed capital losses allocable to
United States sources. If the second exception above applies, the Non-U.S. Holder generally will be subject to United States federal income tax with respect to such gain in the same manner
as U.S. Holders, as described above, unless an applicable income tax treaty provides otherwise. Additionally, Non-U.S. Holders that are corporations could be subject to a branch profits
tax with respect to such gain at a rate of 30% (or at a reduced rate under an applicable income tax treaty). </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A note held or beneficially owned by an individual who, for United States federal estate tax purposes, is not a citizen or resident of
the United States at the time of his or her death will not be includable in the individual's gross estate for United States federal estate tax purposes, provided that at the time of death
(i)&nbsp;such holder or beneficial owner does not own, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of our stock entitled to vote (within the meaning of the
Code) and (ii)&nbsp;payments with respect to such note would not have been effectively connected with the conduct by such holder or beneficial owner of a trade or business in the United States. In
addition, under the terms of an applicable estate tax treaty, United States federal estate tax may not apply or may be reduced with respect to a note. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
addition, a U.S. Holder may be subject to backup withholding at a current rate of 28% (or a potentially higher rate in taxable years after December&nbsp;31, 2012) on those payments
if the U.S. Holder does not provide its taxpayer identification number in the manner required, fails to certify that it is not subject to backup withholding, fails to properly report in full its
dividend and interest income, or otherwise fails to comply with the applicable requirements of the backup withholding rules. Some non-individual holders, including corporations,
tax-exempt organizations and individual retirement accounts, are normally exempt from these requirements. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup
withholding rules generally will be allowed as a credit against the U.S. Holder's United States federal income tax liability (or be refunded) provided the required information is timely furnished to
the IRS. Prospective U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors concerning the application of information reporting and backup withholding rules. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;United States rules concerning information reporting and backup withholding applicable to Non-U.S. Holders are as
follows:</FONT></P>

<UL>
<DL compact>
<DT style='font-family:times;margin-bottom:-11pt;'><FONT SIZE=2>&#149;</FONT></DT><DD style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>interest payments received by a Non-U.S. Holder will generally be exempt from backup withholding rules if such
Non-U.S. Holder qualifies for the "portfolio interest exception" and the Non-U.S. Holder satisfies the certification requirements described under "&#151;Certain United
States Federal Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders&#151;Treatment of Interest" above. The exemption does not apply if the withholding agent or an intermediary knows or has reason
to know that the holder should be subject to the usual information reporting or backup withholding rules. In addition, information reporting (on Form&nbsp;1042-S) may still apply to
payments of interest even if certification is provided and the interest is exempt from the 30% withholding tax; and </FONT><FONT SIZE=2>
<BR><BR></FONT></DD><DT style='font-family:times;margin-bottom:-11pt;'><FONT SIZE=2>&#149;</FONT></DT><DD style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>sale proceeds received by a Non-U.S. Holder on a sale of notes through a broker may be subject to information
reporting and backup withholding if the Non-U.S. Holder is not eligible for an exemption or does not provide the certification described under "&#151;Certain United States Federal
Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders&#151;Treatment of Interest" above. In particular, information reporting and backup withholding may apply if the Non-U.S. Holder uses
the United States office of a broker, and information reporting (but generally not backup withholding) may apply if a Non-U.S. Holder uses the non-United States office of a
broker that has certain connections to the United States. </FONT></DD></DL>
</UL>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Backup
withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules generally will be allowed as a credit against the Non-U.S. Holder's
United States federal income tax liability (or be refunded) provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. Prospective Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors
concerning the application of information reporting and backup withholding rules. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> The HIRE Act  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment Act (the "Hire Act") modifies some of the withholding, information reporting and
certification rules above with respect to certain Non-U.S. Holders (or U.S. Holders who own notes through foreign accounts or foreign intermediaries) who fail to timely comply with the
Hire Act's new reporting and disclosure obligations. If applicable, additional withholding could apply to most types of U.S. source payments (including payments of principal, interest and proceeds
from sales or other dispositions) to such holders after December&nbsp;31, 2013, or later for certain types of payments. However, the Hire Act contains an exception that provides that withholding tax
will not apply to payments made on debt instruments that are outstanding on March&nbsp;18, 2012, and proposed regulations extend this grandfathering provision to cover debt </FONT></P>

 <P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B> New Issue of Notes  </B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The notes are a new issue of securities with no established trading market. We intend to apply to list the notes on the NYSE. If the
application is approved, we expect trading in the notes to begin within 30&nbsp;days of August 8, 2012, the original issue date. We have been advised by the underwriters that they presently intend
to make a market in the notes after completion of the offering. However, they are under no obligation to do so and may discontinue any market-making activities at any time without any notice. We
cannot assure the liquidity of the trading market for the notes or that an active public market for the notes will develop. If an active public trading market for the notes does not develop, the
market price and liquidity of the notes may be adversely affected. If the notes are traded, they may trade at a discount from their initial offering price, depending on prevailing interest rates, the
market for similar securities, our operating performance and financial condition, general economic conditions and other factors. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B> No Sales of Similar Securities  </B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We have agreed that for a period of 30 days from the date of this prospectus supplement we will not, without first obtaining the prior
written consent of the representatives, directly or indirectly, issue, sell, offer to contract or grant any option to sell, pledge, transfer or otherwise dispose of, any debt securities or securities
exchangeable for or convertible into debt securities, except for the notes sold to the underwriters pursuant to the underwriting agreement. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B> Settlement  </B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It is expected that delivery of the notes will be made through the facilities of DTC on or about August 8, 2012, which will be the
fifth business day following the initial sale of the notes (this settlement cycle being referred to as "T+5"). Under Rule&nbsp;15c6-1 of the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market
generally are required to settle in three business days, unless the parties to a trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the
notes prior to the third business day before the delivery of the notes will be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes initially will settle on a delayed basis, to specify alternative
settlement arrangements at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement and should consult their own advisor. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B> Short Positions  </B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In connection with the offering, the underwriters may purchase and sell the notes in the open market. These transactions may include
short sales and purchases on the open market to cover positions created by short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater principal </FONT></P>

of notes than they are required to purchase in the offering. The underwriters must close out any short position by purchasing notes 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. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Similar
to other purchase transactions, the underwriters' purchases to cover the syndicate short sales may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of the notes or
preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the notes. As a result, the price of the notes may be higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the open market. </FONT></P>

of the notes. In addition, neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation that the representatives will engage in these transactions or that these transactions, once commenced, will
not be discontinued without notice. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B> Conflicts of Interest  </B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Certain of the underwriters or their respective affiliates are syndication agents or lenders under our revolving credit facility. As
described in "Use of Proceeds" in this prospectus supplement, we intend to repay outstanding amounts under our revolving credit facility using the net proceeds of this offering and will pay such
amounts to the underwriters or their respective affiliates in proportion to their respective current commitments under our revolving credit facility. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Because
affiliates of certain of the underwriters of this offering are lenders under our revolving credit facility and will receive at least five percent of the net offering proceeds,
not including underwriting compensation, to reduce or retire the balance of that credit facility, a conflict of interest, as defined in Rule&nbsp;5121 of the Financial Industry Regulatory
Authority,&nbsp;Inc. ("FINRA"), is deemed to exist. No "qualified independent underwriter," as defined in FINRA Rule&nbsp;5121, is required to participate in the offering of the notes because the
notes are "investment grade rated," as that term is defined in the rule. In compliance with FINRA Rule&nbsp;5121, no underwriter having a conflict of interest under FINRA Rule&nbsp;5121 will
confirm sales to any account over which it exercises discretionary authority without the specific written approval of the accountholder. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2><B> Other Relationships  </B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Some of the underwriters and their affiliates have engaged in, and may in the future engage in, investment banking and other
commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with us or our Affiliates. In addition to acting as lenders under our credit facility, certain of the underwriters and their respective
affiliates, including the representatives or their respective affiliates, are lenders under our $250&nbsp;million term loan. Additionally, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, an affiliate of
Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, is the trustee for the notes. Certain of the underwriters have received, or may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
addition, in the ordinary course of their business activities, the underwriters and their affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity
securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers. Such investments and securities activities
may involve securities and/or instruments of ours or our Affiliates. Certain of the underwriters or their affiliates that have a lending relationship with us routinely hedge their credit exposure to
us consistent with their customary risk management policies. Typically, such underwriters and their affiliates would hedge such exposure by entering into transactions which consist of either the
purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities, including potentially the notes offered hereby. Any such short positions could adversely affect future trading
prices of the notes offered hereby. The underwriters and </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This
prospectus has been prepared on the basis that any offer of notes in any Relevant Member State will be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Directive from the
requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of notes. Accordingly any person making or intending to make an offer in that Relevant Member State of notes which are the subject of the offering
contemplated in this prospectus may only do so in circumstances in which no obligation arises for the Company or any of the underwriters to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article&nbsp;3 of the
Prospectus Directive in relation to such offer. Neither the Company nor the underwriters have authorized, nor do they authorize, the making of any offer of notes in circumstances in which an

the purpose of the above provisions, the expression "an offer to the public" in relation to any notes in any Relevant Member State means the communication in any form and by any
means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the notes to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe the notes, as the same may be varied in the
Relevant Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in the Relevant Member State and the expression "Prospectus Directive" means Directive 2003/71/EC (including the 2010 PD
Amending Directive, to the extent implemented in the Relevant Member States) and includes any relevant implementing measure in the Relevant Member State and the expression "2010 PD Amending Directive"

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Each time we offer securities using this prospectus, we will provide the specific terms and offering prices in a supplement to this
prospectus. The prospectus supplements also may add, update or change the information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and also will describe the specific manner in which we
will offer these securities. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
applicable prospectus supplement may also contain important information about United States federal income tax consequences and, in certain circumstances, consequences under other
countries' tax laws to which you may become subject if you acquire the securities being offered by that prospectus supplement. You should read carefully both this prospectus and any prospectus
supplement together with the additional information described under the heading "Where You Can Find More Information." </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
are responsible for the information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement. We have not authorized any other person to
provide you with
different information, and we take no responsibility for any other information that others may give you. We are not making an offer to sell these securities in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale
is not permitted. You should assume that the information appearing in this prospectus or incorporated by reference herein is accurate only as of the date on the front of this prospectus or the
respective dates of filing of the incorporated documents. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since that date. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We file annual, quarterly and current reports, proxy statements and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or
the SEC. You may read and copy any materials that we file with the SEC at its Public Reference Room, 100&nbsp;F Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549. You may call the SEC at
1-800-SEC-0330 for further information on the operation of the Public Reference Room. Our SEC filings are also available to the public from the SEC's website at
http://www.sec.gov. In addition, you may read our SEC filings at the offices of the NYSE, which is located at 20 Broad Street, New York, New York 10005. Our SEC filings are available at the NYSE
because our common stock is listed on the NYSE. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
SEC's rules allow us to "incorporate by reference" the information we have filed with the SEC, which means that we can disclose important information by referring you to those
documents. The information incorporated by reference is a part of this prospectus, and information that we file later with the SEC will automatically update and supersede the information included
and/or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. We incorporate by reference into this prospectus the documents listed below and any future filings made by us with the SEC under
Sections&nbsp;13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended or the "Exchange Act" (other than, in each case, any document or portion of that document that is deemed
not to be filed) after the initial filing of the registration statement that contains this prospectus and prior to the time that we sell all of the securities offered by this
prospectus: </FONT></P>

the purpose of computing the ratios of earnings to fixed charges, earnings consists of pre-tax income from continuing operations (before adjustment for non-controlling interests in

expense) plus the portion of rental expense deemed to represent interest expense. </FONT></P>
