The Notes will mature on August 15, 2051, and interest will be paid semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year or, if such day is not a business day, on the next succeeding business day, beginning on February 15, 2022.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in the Notes involves risks. You should carefully consider the specific risk factors set forth below, as well as the risk factors described in “Item 1A—Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, which are incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, as well as those risks discussed from time to time in our subsequently filed reports, before deciding to invest in the Notes. This prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus contain or incorporate statements that constitute forward-looking statements regarding, among other matters, our intent, belief or current expectations about our business. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions.

Risks Relating to the Notes

Your right to receive payments on the Notes is unsecured and will be effectively subordinated to the existing and future debt and other liabilities of our subsidiaries.

The Notes are unsecured and therefore will be effectively subordinated to any secured debt we may incur to the extent of the assets securing such debt. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution, reorganization, bankruptcy or similar proceeding involving us, the assets which serve as collateral for any secured debt will be available to satisfy the obligations under the secured debt before any payments are made on the Notes.

In addition, the Notes will be effectively subordinated to the liabilities of our subsidiaries. Our subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities and have no obligation to pay any amounts due on the Notes, whether by dividends, distributions, loans or other payments. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution, reorganization, bankruptcy or any similar proceeding, the assets of our subsidiaries will be available to pay obligations on the Notes only after creditors of our subsidiaries have been paid first. In such a case, as a result of the application of the subsidiaries’ assets to satisfy claims of creditors, including trade creditors, and preferred equity holders, the value of the stock of the subsidiaries would be diminished and perhaps rendered worthless. Accordingly, there may not be sufficient funds remaining to pay amounts due on all or any of the Notes. The Indenture will not prohibit us or our subsidiaries from incurring additional unsecured indebtedness or issuing common or preferred equity in the future. In addition, certain debt and security agreements entered into by our subsidiaries may contain various restrictions, including restrictions on payments by our subsidiaries to us.

The Indenture and other instruments that govern our outstanding indebtedness contain restrictions and limitations that could significantly affect our ability to operate our business, as well as significantly affect our liquidity, and adversely affect you, as holders of the Notes.

The Indenture will contain a number of significant covenants that could adversely affect our ability to operate our business, as well as significantly affect our liquidity, and therefore could adversely affect our results of operations. These covenants restrict, among other things, our ability to:

These covenants are subject to important exceptions and qualifications as described under “Description of the Notes—Covenants.” In addition, the applicable indentures governing our outstanding medium-term notes and certain of our outstanding senior notes contain similar restrictive covenants, and the note purchase agreement related to our outstanding 6.10% Senior Notes due 2041 and our Credit Facility (as defined under “Description of Other Indebtedness”) each contain a number of covenants and obligations. The breach of any covenant or obligation under the Indenture, the applicable indentures or note purchase agreement governing or related to our outstanding medium-term and senior notes or the Credit Facility that is not otherwise waived or cured could result in a default and could trigger acceleration of those obligations, which in turn could trigger cross defaults

S-5

under other agreements governing our long-term indebtedness. Any default under the Indenture, the applicable indentures or note purchase agreement governing or related to our outstanding medium-term and senior notes or the Credit Facility could adversely affect our growth, financial condition, results of operations and ability to make payments on our debt, and could force us to seek protection under the bankruptcy laws. For a description of our outstanding medium-term and senior notes, the related indentures and note purchase agreement and our Credit Facility, see “Description of Other Indebtedness.”

An active trading market may not develop for the Notes and you may be unable to sell your Notes.

The Notes will be new securities for which there currently is no trading market, and we do not intend to list the Notes on any securities exchange or automated quotation system. Although we have been informed by some of the underwriters that they presently intend to make a market in the Notes after this offering is completed, they have no obligation to do so and may discontinue market-making at any time without notice. In addition, market-making activities will be subject to limits imposed by the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. As a result, you cannot be sure that an active trading market will develop for the Notes. If an active public trading market for the Notes does not develop, the market price and liquidity of the Notes may be adversely affected.

In addition, the liquidity of the trading market for the Notes, if one develops, and the market price quoted for the Notes, may be adversely affected by: changes in the overall market for debt securities; changes in our financial condition, performance or prospects; the prospects for companies in our industry generally; the number of holders of the Notes; the interest of securities dealers in making a market for the Notes; and prevailing interest rates. Further, any adverse events in the global financial markets as a whole may cause a reduction of liquidity in the secondary market for the Notes.

Credit rating downgrades may have an adverse impact on the market valuation of the Notes and the market valuation of the Notes may be exposed to volatility.

We are rated, and we expect the Notes to be rated, by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., S&P and Fitch Ratings Inc. These ratings are not recommendations to purchase, sell or hold the Notes. Credit rating agencies continually revise their ratings for companies they follow, including us. Accordingly, any rating assigned to us or the Notes by one or more of these rating agencies may not remain, may be lowered or may be withdrawn entirely by a rating agency if, in that rating agency’s judgment, future circumstances relating to the basis of the rating, such as adverse changes in our business, warrant a change to the rating assigned. If one of the major rating agencies lowers its credit rating of us or the Notes, the market value of the Notes will likely decline. As described under “Recent Developments,” we expect S&P to downgrade our credit rating up to two notches in connection with the Riggs Distler acquisition by Centuri, and other agencies may downgrade our ratings in the future. Ratings downgrades may negatively impact the market valuation of the Notes. If the expected downgrade by S&P occurs upon the closing of the Riggs Distler acquisition, the valuation of the Notes may decline within weeks of the closing of this offering because we expect the Riggs Distler acquisition to close in the third quarter of 2021. Moreover, historically, the debt market has been subject to disruptions that have caused substantial volatility in the prices of securities similar to the Notes, and the debt market has been particularly volatile, and will likely continue to be volatile for a period of time, as a result of the economic turmoil caused by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The market, if any, for the Notes may not be free from similar disruptions, and any such disruptions could adversely affect the prices at which the holders of Notes may sell their Notes. The debt market can experience sudden and sharp price swings, which can be exacerbated by factors such as (i) global and national economic turmoil, (ii) large or sustained sales by major investors in debt, (iii) a default by a high-profile issuer or (iv) simply a change in investors’ psychology regarding debt. A real or perceived economic downturn could cause a decline in the market value of the Notes. Therefore, holders of the Notes may be unable to sell their Notes at a particular time or, in the event they are able to sell their Notes, the price that they receive when they sell may not be favorable.

S-6

A significant reduction in Southwest Gas Holdings. and Southwest’s credit ratings could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

We cannot be certain that any of our current credit ratings will remain in effect for any given period of time or that a rating will not be lowered or withdrawn entirely by a rating agency if, in its judgment, circumstances in the future so warrant. Our credit ratings are subject to change at any time in the discretion of the applicable ratings agencies. Numerous factors, including many which are not within our control, are considered by the ratings agencies in connection with assigning credit ratings.

Any downgrade could increase our future borrowing costs, which would diminish our financial results. We would likely be required to pay a higher interest rate in certain current, as well as future, financings, and our potential pool of investors and funding sources could decrease. A downgrade could require additional support in the form of letters of credit or cash or other collateral and otherwise adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

To service our indebtedness, we will require a significant amount of cash. Our ability to generate cash depends on many factors beyond our control.

Our ability to make payments on and to refinance our indebtedness, including the Notes, and to fund planned capital expenditures and expansion efforts will depend upon our ability to generate cash in the future. This, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control. We may need or decide to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness before maturity, and cannot provide assurances that we will be able to refinance any of our indebtedness, including the Notes, on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. We may have to adopt one or more alternatives, such as reducing or delaying planned expenses and capital expenditures, selling assets, restructuring debt, obtaining additional debt financing, or entering into joint ventures.

We may choose to redeem the Notes prior to maturity.

We may redeem all or a portion of the Notes at any time. See “Description of the Notes—Redemption at Our Option.” If prevailing interest rates are lower at the time of redemption, holders of the Notes may not be able to reinvest the redemption proceeds in a comparable security at an interest rate as high as the interest rate of the Notes being redeemed.

The Indenture will not limit the amount of unsecured indebtedness that we or our subsidiaries may incur or our ability to enter into a change of control transaction or require us to comply with any financial covenants.

Neither we nor any of our subsidiaries will be restricted from incurring additional unsecured debt or other liabilities, including additional senior debt, under the Indenture. As of June 30, 2021, we had approximately $2.7 billion of indebtedness outstanding (excluding short-term borrowings under the Credit Facility) and $209 million of borrowings available under our Credit Facility. If we incur additional debt or liabilities, our ability to pay our obligations on the Notes could be adversely affected. In addition, we will not be restricted from paying dividends on or issuing or repurchasing our securities under the Indenture. Furthermore, the Indenture will not contain any provisions restricting our or any of our subsidiaries’ ability to sell assets (other than certain restrictions on our ability to consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of our assets and our ability to sell the stock of certain subsidiaries), to enter into transactions with affiliates, or to create restrictions on the payment of dividends or other amounts to us from our subsidiaries. Additionally, the Indenture will not require us to offer to purchase the Notes in connection with a change of control or require that we or our subsidiaries adhere to any financial tests or ratios or specified levels of net worth. There will be no financial covenants in the Indenture. You will not be protected under the Indenture in the event of a highly leveraged transaction, reorganization, change of control, restructuring, merger or similar transaction that may adversely affect you, except to the limited extent described in this prospectus supplement under “Description of the Notes.”

S-7

Southwest Gas Holdings is not a guarantor of the Notes and may have interests that conflict with those of the holders of the Notes.

Southwest Gas Holdings is not a guarantor of, or in any way obligated in connection with, the Notes issued by us. We are a wholly owned subsidiary of Southwest Gas Holdings. As our parent, Southwest Gas Holdings controls our fundamental corporate policies and transactions, including but not limited to, the approval of significant corporate transactions. The interests of Southwest Gas Holdings as an equity holder and as parent of a subsidiary may be different from your interests as a holder of the Notes. For example, Southwest Gas Holdings may have an interest in pursuing, or causing us to pursue, acquisitions, financings, or other transactions that, in its judgment, could enhance its equity investment in us or the value of its other businesses, even though those transactions might involve risks to you as holders of the Notes.

The assets related to Southwest Gas Holdings’ construction business will not be available to satisfy obligations under the Notes.

Southwest does not hold an interest in Centuri, which composes Southwest Gas Holdings’ utility infrastructure services segment, and Centuri is not a guarantor of the Notes. Accordingly, the income and business from the utility infrastructure services segment may not be available to service our indebtedness, including the Notes, and in the event of a liquidation, dissolution, reorganization, bankruptcy or similar proceeding involving us, the assets related to the utility infrastructure services segment may not be available for us to make payments on the Notes.

S-8

USE OF PROCEEDS

We anticipate that the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes will be approximately $296.2 million, after deducting the underwriting discounts and other estimated expenses payable by us. We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering to repay the outstanding balance under the Credit Facility, with the remaining net proceeds intended for general corporate purposes. Pending the specific use of the net proceeds, the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes may initially be temporarily invested in short-term marketable securities.

The Credit Facility matures on April 10, 2025. The interest rate per annum applicable to revolving loans under the Credit Facility is based upon, at our option, the LIBOR or the “alternate base rate,” plus in each case an applicable margin that is determined based on our senior unsecured long-term debt rating. The applicable margin ranges from 0.750% to 1.500% for loans bearing interest with reference to LIBOR and from 0.00% to 0.500% for loans bearing interest with reference to the alternate base rate. We are also required to pay a commitment fee on the unfunded portion of the commitments based on our senior unsecured long-term debt rating. The commitment fee ranges from 0.075% to 0.200% per annum. As of June 30, 2021, $191 million was outstanding under the revolving portion of the Credit Facility (including $50 million under an uncommitted commercial paper program). For more information about our Credit Facility, see “Description of Other Indebtedness—Credit Facility.”

Affiliates of certain of the underwriters are lenders under the Credit Facility, and may therefore receive 5% or more of the net proceeds of this offering due to the repayment of a portion of the outstanding balance under the Credit Facility. See “Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest)—Conflicts of Interest.”

DESCRIPTION OF OTHER INDEBTEDNESS

The following is a summary of our indebtedness that is outstanding. To the extent such summary contains descriptions of our specific debt instruments, such descriptions do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to those and related documents, copies of which have been filed with the SEC and which we will provide you upon request.

Industrial Development Revenue Bonds

As of June 30, 2021, we had an aggregate principal amount of approximately $200 million in industrial development revenue bonds (“IDRBs”) outstanding. The different series of IDRBs will mature at various dates, the first maturity date occurring in 2028 and the last occurring in 2039. Our contracts relating to the issuance of these bonds do not contain material financial covenants or restrictions.

On December 1, 1993, we entered into a Project Agreement with the City of Big Bear Lake, California in connection with the issuance of $50 million of tax-exempt Series A variable-rate IDRBs, due December 2028, all of which remain outstanding. Such IDRBs are supported by a letter of credit issued by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. These Series A variable-rate IDRBs bear interest at the rate determined by the remarketing agent to be the lowest rate which would enable the remarketing agent to sell the Series A IDRBs on the effective date of such rate at a price (without regard to accrued interest) equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof.

On March 1, 2003, we entered into a Financing Agreement with Clark County, Nevada in connection with the issuance of $165 million Clark County, Nevada IDRBs due 2038. As of June 30, 2021, all of such indebtedness has been repaid, except for $50 million of 2003 Series A variable-rate IDRBs. Such IDRBs are supported by a letter of credit issued by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. These Series A variable-rate IDRBs bear interest at the rate determined by the remarketing agent to be the lowest rate which would enable the remarketing agent to sell the Series A IDRBs on the effective date of such rate at a price (without regard to accrued interest) equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof.

On September 1, 2008, we entered into a Financing Agreement with Clark County, Nevada in connection with the issuance of $50 million in Clark County, Nevada variable-rate 2008 Series A IDRBs due 2038. Such IDRBs are supported by a letter of credit issued by MUFG Union Bank, N.A. All of such IDRBs remain outstanding. Such IDRBs bear interest at the rate determined by the remarketing agent to be the lowest rate which would enable the remarketing agent to sell the bonds on the effective date of such rate at a price (without regard to accrued interest) equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof.

On December 1, 2009, we entered into a Financing Agreement with Clark County, Nevada in connection with the issuance of $50 million in Clark County, Nevada variable-rate 2009 Series A IDRBs due 2039. Such IDRBs are supported by a letter of credit issued by Bank of America, N.A. All of such IDRBs remain outstanding. Such IDRBs bear interest at the rate determined by the remarketing agent to be the lowest rate which would enable the remarketing agent to sell such IDRBs on the effective date of such rate at a price (without regard to accrued interest) equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof.

We entered into an indenture on July 15, 1996, which was subsequently supplemented and amended in connection with the issuance of notes, as described below (the “1996 Indenture”). The 1996 Indenture does not contain material financial covenants or restrictions, other than restrictions on our ability to issue indebtedness for borrowed money secured by a lien, and to enter into certain sale and lease-back transactions. In addition to the medium-term notes, described below, as of June 30, 2021, we had $75 million of 8% notes due 2026 outstanding under the 1996 Indenture.

2022 Term Loan

On March 23, 2021, we entered into a $250 million Term Loan that matures March 22, 2022 (the “2022 Term Loan”). The proceeds were used to fund the increased cost of natural gas supply during the month of February 2021, caused by extreme weather conditions in the central U.S. Interest rates for the 2022 Term Loan are calculated at either LIBOR or an “alternate base rate,” plus in each case an applicable margin that is determined based on our senior unsecured long-term debt rating. The applicable margin ranges from 0.550% to 1.000% for loans bearing interest with reference to LIBOR and 0.000% for loans bearing interest with reference to an alternative base rate. The effective interest rate for the 2022 Term Loan was 0.75% as of June 30, 2021. The agreement contains a financial covenant requiring us to maintain a ratio of funded debt to total capitalization not to exceed 0.70 to 1.00 as of the end of any quarter of any fiscal year.

Medium-Term Notes

As of June 30, 2021, we had a total of $57.5 million (out of $150 million that have been registered with the SEC for sale) in outstanding principal amount of medium-term notes: $25 million in 7.78% series medium-term notes due 2022, $25 million in 7.92% series medium-term notes due 2027, and $7.5 million in 6.76% series medium-term notes due 2027. These medium-term notes are governed by the 1996 Indenture and the Second Supplemental Indenture thereto dated as of December 30, 1996. We initially registered $150 million medium-term notes with the SEC for sale of which we have sold $82.5 million. Of the $82.5 million, we have retired $25 million.

Note Purchase Agreement

We entered into a note purchase agreement on November 18, 2010 (amended on March 28, 2014 and September 30, 2016 (the “Purchase Agreement”)) with Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, John Hancock Life Insurance Company (U.S.A.), certain of their respective affiliates and Union Fidelity Life Insurance Company (collectively, the “Purchasers”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on February 15, 2011, we sold to the Purchasers an aggregate principal amount of $125 million of our 6.10% Senior Notes due 2041. Our obligations under these notes are unsecured and unsubordinated.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties. The Purchase Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants that are applicable for so long as these notes are outstanding, including, subject to certain exceptions and qualifications, among other things, (i) a maximum leverage ratio; (ii) a minimum net worth; and (iii) limitations on our ability to incur secured indebtedness or liens.

These notes are subject to customary events of default, including without limitation, (i) failure to make payments on principal or premium, if any, upon maturity; (ii) failure to pay interest within five business days after the same becomes due and payable; (iii) breaches of certain covenants and agreements; (iv) cross default to payment defaults, including by reason of acceleration, on certain other indebtedness in excess of $10 million; (v) certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency; and (vi) failure to pay judgments in excess of $10 million within a specified period.

As of June 30, 2021, we have $125 million in outstanding principal amount of 6.10% Senior Notes due 2041.

Credit Facility

On April 10, 2020, we entered into an amended and restated revolving credit agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon, as administrative agent, and certain financial institutions as agents, arrangers, bookrunners,

S-12

and lenders (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility matures on April 10, 2025. The Credit Facility has total borrowing capacity of $400 million, and as of June 30, 2021 $191 million was outstanding under the Credit Facility (including $50 million under an uncommitted commercial paper program).

The interest rate per annum applicable to revolving loans under the Credit Facility is based upon, at our option, the LIBOR or the “alternate base rate,” plus in each case an applicable margin that is determined based on our senior unsecured long-term debt rating. The applicable margin ranges from 0.75% to 1.50% for loans bearing interest with reference to LIBOR and from 0.00% to 0.50% for loans bearing interest with reference to the alternate base rate. We are also required to pay a commitment fee on the unfunded portion of the commitments based on our senior unsecured long-term debt rating. The commitment fee ranges from 0.075% to 0.20% per annum. The weighted average interest rate on the total outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility (including $50 million under an uncommitted commercial paper program) was approximately 0.90% as of June 30, 2021.

As discussed above, we also have a $50 million commercial paper program. Issuances under the commercial paper program are supported by the Credit Facility and, therefore, do not represent additional borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility. Borrowings under the commercial paper program are designated as long-term debt. Interest rates for the program are calculated at the then current commercial paper rate. As of June 30, 2021, as noted above, $50 million of borrowings were outstanding under the commercial paper program.

Our obligations under the Credit Facility are not secured and are not guaranteed by our subsidiaries. The Credit Facility requires that we maintain a Funded Debt (as defined in the Credit Facility) to Total Capitalization (as defined in the Credit Facility) ratio of not more than 0.70 to 1.00 as of the end of any quarter of any fiscal year. In addition, the Credit Facility imposes limitations on the creation of liens, consolidations and mergers, the disposition of assets, and making investments, acquisitions, dividends and certain other payments.

DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

We will issue the Notes under the 2020 Indenture, dated as of June 4, 2020, between us and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (the “Trustee”) and a supplemental indenture to the 2020 Indenture, to be dated as of August 20, 2021, by and between us and the Trustee (the “Supplemental Indenture,” and together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). The following description sets forth the general terms and provisions of the Notes and is subject to the detailed provisions of the Indenture; whenever particular provisions of the Indenture are referred to, such statement is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of the Indenture. The form of the Indenture is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus are a part. We will file the Indenture by means of a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Indenture contains the full legal text of the matters described in this section.

For purposes of this description, references to the “Company,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer only to Southwest Gas Corporation and do not include any of its current or future subsidiaries or refer to Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. Capitalized terms that are used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

General

The Notes will be initially limited in principal amount to $300,000,000. The Notes will bear interest from August 20, 2021, or from the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid at the rate of interest set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement. Interest will be payable semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning on February 15, 2022, to the persons in whose name the Notes are registered at the close of business on the February 1 or August 1 next preceding such interest payment date. For so long as the Notes are registered in the name of DTC, or its nominee, the principal and interest due on the Notes will be payable by us or our agent to DTC for payment to DTC’s participants for subsequent disbursement to the beneficial owners. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The Notes will mature on the date shown on the cover page of this prospectus supplement. We may in the future, without the consent of the holders of the Notes, issue and sell additional Notes (“Additional Notes”) on the same terms and conditions as the Notes being offered hereby (other than the issue date, issue price, and, if applicable, the initial interest payment date), provided that, if the Additional Notes are not fungible with the Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Additional Notes will have a separate CUSIP number, if applicable. These Additional Notes will be deemed to be part of the same series as the Notes offered hereby and will vote together with all other Notes of this series for purposes of amendments, waivers, and all other matters.

Ranking

The Notes will be our unsecured general obligations and will rank on a parity with all our other unsecured, unsubordinated senior indebtedness from time to time outstanding and senior in right of payment to all of our existing and future subordinated indebtedness. The Notes will be effectively subordinated to any of our secured debt, to the extent of the assets securing such debt, and to all existing and future liabilities of our subsidiaries, including trade payables. Further, the Notes will be effectively senior to all unsecured indebtedness of Southwest Gas Holdings. There are no limitations under the Indenture on the amount of unsecured indebtedness that we may incur or capital stock that we may issue.

Payment of Notes

Interest. We will pay interest on the Notes on each interest payment date by check mailed and/or wire transfer to the Person in whose name the Notes are registered as of the close of business on the regular record date relating to the interest payment date.

S-14

However, if we default in paying interest on the Notes, we will pay defaulted interest plus interest on such defaulted interest, on a special record date. We will fix the special record date and related payment date to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee, which specified record date will not be less than 10 days prior to the payment date for such defaulted interest. We will deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the amount to be paid in respect of such defaulted interest to be paid on the payment date to the registered holder of the Note as of the close of business on the special record date.

Principal. We will pay principal of and any premium and interest on the Notes at stated maturity, upon redemption or otherwise, upon presentation of the Notes at the office of the Trustee, as our paying agent.

In our discretion, we may change the place of payment on the Notes, and may remove any paying agent and may appoint one or more additional paying agents.

If any interest payment date or date of maturity of principal of the Notes falls on a day that is not a Business Day, then payment of interest or principal may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the nominal date of interest payment or maturity, as the case may be, and no interest will accrue for the period from and after such nominal date.

Redemption at Our Option

At any time prior to February 15, 2051 (six months prior to the maturity date of the Notes), we may, at our option, redeem the Notes in whole or in part at a redemption price equal to the greater of:

The redemption price will be calculated assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

At any time on or after February 15, 2051 (six months prior to the maturity date), we may redeem the Notes in whole or in part at 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on those Notes up to but excluding the redemption date (subject to the rights of holders of the Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date).

We will cause to be transmitted notice of any redemption at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each registered holder of the Notes to be redeemed.

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 of the Notes called for redemption.

“Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday, a Sunday, or a day on which banking institutions or trust companies in New York City are authorized or required by law, executive order or regulation to close.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed that would be used, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Notes.

S-15

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date:

“Quotation Agent” means the Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by us.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (1) a Primary Treasury Dealer (as defined below) selected by J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, BNY Mellon Capital Markets, LLC, BofA Securities, Inc. and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and their respective successors, unless such entity ceases to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in the United States of America (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), in which case the Company shall substitute another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (2) any other Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Quotation Agent, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Quotation Agent by that Reference Treasury Dealer as of 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding that redemption date.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per year, equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity (computed as of the third Business Day immediately preceding that redemption date) of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for the redemption date.

Events of Default

An “event of default” occurs with respect to the Notes if:

Remedies

Acceleration. If an event of default (other than certain bankruptcy events of default) occurs and is continuing with respect to the Notes, then either the Trustee or the registered holders of at least 25% in principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest of the outstanding Notes may declare the principal amount of all of the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Upon the occurrence of certain bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or reorganization events of default, the principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest of the outstanding Notes shall become due and payable immediately.

S-16

Rescission of Acceleration. After the declaration of acceleration has been made the declaration and its consequences will be rescinded and annulled, if all events of default, other than the nonpayment of the principal or interest which has become due solely by the declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in the Indenture.

For more information as to waiver of defaults, see “—Waiver of Default and of Compliance” below.

Control By Registered Holders; Limitations. Subject to the Indenture, the registered holders of a majority in the principal amount of the outstanding Notes will have the right to:

The Trustee may also take any other action it deems proper which is consistent with the registered holders’ direction. The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by the Indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders pursuant to the Indenture, unless such holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

In addition, the Indenture provides that no registered holder of any Note will have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture for the appointment of a receiver or for any other remedy thereunder unless:

Furthermore, no registered holder will be entitled to institute any action if and to the extent that the action would disturb or prejudice the rights of other registered holders.

However, each registered holder has an absolute and unconditional right to receive payment when due and to bring a suit to enforce that right.

Notice of Default

If a default or an event of default occurs with respect to the Notes and is continuing, and the Trustee receives written notice of such default or event of default, the Trustee will transmit to the registered holders of the Notes notice of such default within 60 days after written notice of it is received by the Trustee. Except in the case of a default in payment of principal of or interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as it in good faith determines that withholding the notice is not opposed to the interests of the registered holders of the Notes.

S-17

Waiver of Default and of Compliance

The registered holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may waive, on behalf of the registered holders of all Notes, any past or existing default under the Indenture, except a default in the payment of principal, premium or interest, or with respect to compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture that cannot be amended without the consent of the registered holder of each outstanding Note affected.

Compliance with certain covenants in the Indenture or otherwise provided with respect to the Notes may be waived by the registered holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes.

Consolidation, Merger and Conveyance of Assets as an Entirety

Subject to the provisions described in the next paragraph, we will preserve our existence.

We have agreed not to consolidate with or merge into any other entity, or to convey, transfer or lease our properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any entity, or to permit any entity to consolidate with or merge into us, unless:

Covenants

Under the Indenture, we will:

S-18

Maintenance of Properties. We will cause all properties used or useful in the conduct of our business to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working order and supplied with all necessary equipment and will cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements thereof, all as in our judgment may be necessary so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly and advantageously conducted at all times; provided, however, that nothing in this covenant shall prevent us from discontinuing the operation or maintenance of any of such properties if such discontinuance is, in our judgment, desirable in the conduct of our business and not disadvantageous in any material respect to the holders of the Notes.

Payment of Taxes and Other Claims. We will pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same shall become delinquent, (1) all taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon us or upon our income, profits or property and (2) all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies which, if unpaid, might by law become a lien upon our property; provided, however, that we shall not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or claim whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings or if such failure to pay or discharge could not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, operations, affairs, financial condition, assets or properties and our subsidiaries taken as a whole or on our ability to pay the Notes in accordance with their terms.

Restrictions on Liens. We will not issue, assume or guarantee any Debt secured by any Lien upon our property or assets (whether such property or assets are now owned or hereafter acquired), without in any such case effectively securing, prior to or concurrently with the issuance, assumption or guarantee of any such Debt, the Notes (together with, if we shall so determine, any other indebtedness of ours or guarantee by us ranking equally with the Notes and then existing or thereafter created) equally and ratably with (or, at our option, prior to) such Debt. The foregoing restrictions do not apply to or prevent the creation of:

S-19

Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may issue, assume or guarantee Debt secured by a Lien which would otherwise be subject to the foregoing restrictions up to an aggregate amount that, together with all our other Indebtedness (other than the Debt secured by Liens described in the foregoing bullets) that would otherwise be subject to the foregoing restrictions and the Value of all Sale and Lease-back Transactions existing at that time (other than any Sale and Lease-back Transaction that, if it had been a Lien, would have been permitted under the first bullet of the preceding paragraph and other than Sale and Lease-back Transactions as to which application of amounts have been made in accordance with the second bullet of the first paragraph under “—Restrictions on Sale and Lease-back Transactions”), does not at the time we issue, assume, or guarantee Debt secured by such Lien exceed 10% of Total Capitalization.

Restrictions on Sale and Lease-back Transactions. We will not enter into any Sale and Lease-back Transaction unless the proceeds from such sale are at least equal to the fair value of the property being sold and leased-back and either:

“Debt” means debt issued, assumed or guaranteed by us for money borrowed.

“Finance Lease” means any lease of our property (whether real, personal or mixed) by us as lessee that would, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, be required to be accounted for as a finance lease on our balance sheet.

“Funded Debt” means all our Indebtedness that by its terms or by the terms of any instrument or agreement relating thereto matures more than one year from, or is directly or indirectly renewable or extendable at our option to a date more than one year from the date of creation thereof (including an option under a revolving credit or similar agreement obligating the lender or lenders to extend credit over a period of more than one year), but excluding any payments due under the terms thereof within 12 months of any date of determination (including any deposit or payment required to be made under any repayment provision, sinking fund, purchase fund or similar provision).

“Indebtedness” means, as applied to any Person, Finance Leases, bonds, notes, debentures and other securities representing obligations for borrowed money created or assumed by such Person. All indebtedness

S-20

guaranteed as to payment of principal in any manner by such Person or in effect guaranteed by such Person through a contingent agreement to purchase such indebtedness, and all indebtedness that is both secured by a Lien upon property owned by such Person and upon which such Person customarily pays interest, even though such Person has not assumed or become liable for the payment of such indebtedness, shall for all purposes thereof be deemed to be “Indebtedness” of such Person.

“Lien” means any lien, mortgage, pledge, security interest, charge or other encumbrance of any kind.

“Person” means any individual, Corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, unincorporated organization or government or any agency or political subdivision thereof.

“Sale and Lease-back Transaction” means any direct or indirect arrangement with any Person providing for the lease to us of our property (except for temporary leases for a term, including any renewal thereof, of not more than three years), which property has been or is to be sold or transferred by us to such Person or to any other Person by whom funds have been or are to be advanced on the security of such property.

“Total Capitalization” means, as at any time, the aggregate of (1) all amounts outstanding on such date classified as our shareholder’s equity on such date, (2) all amounts outstanding on such date classified as our preferred or preference stock on such date and (3) all amounts of our Funded Debt outstanding on such date determined on an unconsolidated basis.

“Value” means, with respect to a Sale and Lease-back Transaction, as at any time, the amount equal to the greater of (1) the net proceeds from the sale or transfer of the property leased pursuant to such Sale and Lease-back Transaction and (2) the fair value, in the opinion of our board of directors, of such property at the time of entering into such Sale and Lease-back Transaction, in either case divided first by the number of full years of the term of the lease and then multiplied by the number of full years of such term remaining at the time of determination, without regard to any renewal or extension options contained in the lease.

Modification of Indenture

Without Registered Holder Consent. Without the consent of any registered holders of the Notes, we and the Trustee may amend or modify the Indenture for any of the following purposes:

If the Trust Indenture Act is amended after the date of the Indenture so as to require changes to the Indenture or the elimination of provisions which, at the date of the Indenture or at any time thereafter, were

S-21

required by the Trust Indenture Act to be contained in the Indenture, the Indenture will be deemed to have been amended so as to conform to the amendment or to effect the changes or elimination, and we and the Trustee may, without the consent of any registered holders, enter into one or more supplemental indentures to effect or evidence the amendment.

With Registered Holder Consent. We and the Trustee may, with some exceptions, amend or modify the Indenture with the consent of the registered holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes. However, no amendment or modification may, without the consent of the registered holder of each outstanding Note affected thereby:

Miscellaneous Provisions

The Indenture provides that certain Notes, including those for which payment or redemption money has been deposited or set aside in trust as described under “—Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance” below, will not be deemed to be “outstanding” in determining whether the registered holders of the requisite principal amount of the outstanding Notes have given or taken any demand, direction, consent or other action under the Indenture as of any date, or are present at a meeting of registered holders for quorum purposes.

We will be entitled to set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the registered holders of outstanding Notes entitled to give or take any demand, direction, consent or other action under the Indenture, in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture. In certain circumstances, the Trustee also will be entitled to set a record date for action by registered holders. If a record date is set for any action to be taken by registered holders of the Notes, the action may be taken only by persons who are registered holders of the Notes on the record date.

Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance

The Indenture provides that we may, upon satisfying several conditions, cause ourselves to be:

One condition we must satisfy is the irrevocable deposit with the Trustee, in trust, of money and/or government obligations which, through the scheduled payment of principal and interest on those obligations, would provide sufficient funds to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on the Notes on the maturity dates of the payment or upon redemption.

S-22

The Indenture permits defeasance with respect to the Notes even if a prior covenant defeasance has occurred with respect to the Notes. Following a defeasance, payment of the Notes defeased may not be accelerated because of an event of default. Following a covenant defeasance, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated by reference to those covenants specified in the covenant defeasance. However, if such an acceleration were to occur, the realizable value at the acceleration date of the money and government obligations in the defeasance trust could be less than the principal and interest then due on the Notes, since the required deposit in the defeasance trust would be based upon scheduled cash flows rather than market value, which would vary depending upon interest rates and other factors.

Resignation and Removal of the Trustee; Deemed Resignation

The Trustee may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ written notice to us.

The Trustee may also be removed by act of the registered holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes upon 30 days’ written notice to the Trustee.

No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor trustee will become effective until the acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee in accordance with the requirements of the Indenture.

Under certain circumstances, we must appoint a successor trustee and if the successor accepts, the Trustee will be deemed to have resigned.

Form; Transfers; Exchanges

The Notes will be issued in registered, global form and in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Trustee acts as our agent for registering the Notes in the names of holders and transferring the Notes. We may appoint another agent or act as our own agent for this purpose. The entity performing the role of maintaining the list of registered holders is called the “security registrar.” It will also perform transfers. In our discretion, we may change the place for registration or transfer of the Notes and may remove and/or appoint one or more additional security registrars.

There will be no service charge for any such transfer or exchange of the Notes, but you may be required to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection with the transfer or exchange. We may block any such transfer or exchange of (a) the Notes during a period of 15 days prior to giving any notice of redemption or before an interest payment date or (b) any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

Governing Law

The Indenture and the Notes will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York (including Section 5-1401of the General Obligations Law of the State of New York but otherwise without regard to principles of conflicts of laws).

Global Notes

DTC will act as securities depository for the Notes. The Notes will be issued only as fully registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC’s nominee). One or more fully registered global notes, representing the total aggregate principal amount of the Notes, will be issued and will be deposited with DTC or its custodian and will bear a legend regarding the restrictions on exchanges and registration of transfer referred to below.

The laws of some jurisdictions may require that some purchasers of securities take physical delivery of securities in definitive form. These laws may impair the ability to transfer beneficial interests in the Notes so long as the Notes are represented by global notes.

S-23

DTC advises that it is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code and a “clearing agency” registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Exchange Act. DTC holds securities that its participants deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the settlement among participants of securities transactions, including transfers and pledges, in deposited securities through electronic computerized book-entry changes in participants’ accounts, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation, or “DTCC.” DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to DTC’s system is also available to others, including securities brokers and dealers, banks and trust companies that clear transactions through or maintain a custodial relationship with a direct participant either directly or indirectly. The rules applicable to DTC and its participants are on file with the SEC.

We will issue the Notes in definitive certificated form if DTC notifies us that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary or DTC ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and a successor depositary is not appointed by us within 90 days. In addition, beneficial interests in a global note may be exchanged for definitive certificated notes upon request by or on behalf of DTC in accordance with customary procedures following the request of a beneficial owner seeking to exercise or enforce its rights under such Notes.

If we determine at any time that the Notes shall no longer be represented by global notes, we will inform DTC of such determination which will, in turn, notify participants of their right to withdraw their beneficial interest from the global notes, and if such participants elect to withdraw their beneficial interests, we will issue certificates in definitive form in exchange for such beneficial interests in the global notes. Any global note, or portion thereof, that is exchangeable pursuant to this paragraph will be exchangeable for note certificates, as the case may be, registered in the names directed by DTC. We expect that these instructions will be based upon directions received by DTC from its participants with respect to ownership of beneficial interests in the global notes.

As long as DTC or its nominee is the registered owner of the global notes, DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner and holder of the global notes and all Notes represented by these global notes for all purposes under the Notes and the Indenture. Except in the limited circumstances referred to above, owners of beneficial interests in global notes:

All payments on the Notes represented by the global notes and all transfers and deliveries of related Notes will be made to DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, as the holder of the Notes.

Ownership of beneficial interests in the global notes will be limited to participants or persons that may hold beneficial interests through institutions that have accounts with DTC or its nominee (including, if applicable, those of Euroclear and Clearstream). Ownership of beneficial interests in global notes will be shown only on, and the transfer of those ownership interests will be effected only through, records maintained by DTC or its nominee, with respect to participants’ interests, or any participant, with respect to interests of persons held by the participant on their behalf. Payments, transfers, deliveries, exchanges and other matters relating to beneficial interests in global notes may be subject to various policies and procedures adopted by DTC from time to time. Neither we nor the Trustee will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of DTC’s or any participant’s records relating to, or for payments made on account of, beneficial interests in global notes, or for maintaining,

S-24

supervising or reviewing any of DTC’s records or any participant’s records relating to these beneficial ownership interests.

Transfers between participants in Euroclear and Clearstream will be effected in accordance with their respective rules and operating procedures.

Subject to compliance with the transfer restrictions applicable to the Notes described herein, cross-market transfers between the participants in DTC, on the one hand, and Euroclear or Clearstream participants, on the other hand, will be effected through DTC in accordance with DTC’s rules on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by its respective depositary; however, such cross-market transactions will require delivery of instructions to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by the counterparty in such system in accordance with the rules and procedures and within the established deadlines (Brussels time) of such system. Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, will, if the transaction meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions to its respective depositary to take action to effect final settlement on its behalf by delivering or receiving interests in the relevant global note in DTC, and making or receiving payment in accordance with normal procedures for same-day funds settlement applicable to DTC, Euroclear participants and Clearstream participants may not deliver instructions directly to the depositories for Euroclear or Clearstream.

Same-day Settlement and Payment

The Notes represented by the global notes are expected to be eligible to trade in DTC’s Same-Day Funds Settlement System, and any permitted secondary market trading activity in such Notes will, therefore, be required by DTC to be settled in immediately available funds.

Because of time zone differences, the securities account of a Euroclear or Clearstream participant purchasing an interest in a global note from a participant in DTC will be credited, and any such crediting will be reported to the relevant Euroclear or Clearstream participant, during the securities settlement processing day (which must be a business day for Euroclear and Clearstream) immediately following the settlement date of DTC. DTC has advised us that cash received in Euroclear or Clearstream as a result of sales of interests in a global note by or through a Euroclear or Clearstream participant to a participant in DTC will be received with value on the settlement date of DTC but will be available in the relevant Euroclear or Clearstream cash account only as of the business day for Euroclear or Clearstream following DTC’s settlement date.

No Responsibility for Performance

Although DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream have agreed to the foregoing procedures in order to facilitate transfers of interests in the global notes among participants, DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream are under no obligation to perform or continue to perform these procedures, and these procedures may be discontinued at any time. We will not have any responsibility for the performance by DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream or their direct participants or indirect participants under the rules and procedures governing DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream, as applicable.

The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC’s book-entry system has been obtained from sources that we believe to be reliable, but we take no responsibility for the accuracy thereof.

MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

This section describes certain material U.S. federal income tax considerations relating to the purchase, ownership, and disposition of the Notes. Except where noted, this summary deals only with a Note held as a “capital asset” for tax purposes by a beneficial owner who purchased the Note on original issuance at its “issue price” (the first price at which a substantial portion of the Notes is sold to persons other than bond houses, brokers, or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of initial purchasers, placement agents or wholesalers). This summary does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation relating to the purchase, ownership, and disposition of the Notes. It also does not deal with all tax consequences that may be relevant to holders in light of their personal circumstances or particular situations, such as:

This section does not consider the specific facts and circumstances that may be relevant to a particular holder and does not address alternative minimum tax considerations, estate tax considerations, or the treatment of a holder under the laws of any state, local or foreign taxing jurisdiction. This section is based on the tax laws of the United States, including the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), existing and proposed U.S. Treasury Regulations (“Treasury Regulations”), and administrative and judicial interpretations, all as currently in effect. These laws are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis.

If a partnership (or other entity treated as a partnership) holds the Notes, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner generally will depend upon the status of the partner and the tax treatment of the partnership. If you are a partner in a partnership (or other entity treated as a partnership) holding Notes, you should consult your own tax advisor with regard to the U.S. federal income tax treatment of holding the Notes.

If you are considering the purchase of Notes, you should consult your tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences to you in light of your own particular situation, as well as the potential consequences to you of U.S. federal estate and gift tax laws, and any applicable foreign, state and local laws and tax treaties.

As used herein, the term “U.S. holder” means a beneficial owner of Notes that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

A “non-U.S. holder” is a beneficial owner of Notes that is not a U.S. holder or a partnership.

S-26

Consequences to U.S. Holders

This subsection describes the tax consequences to a U.S. holder relating to the purchase, ownership, and disposition of the Notes.

Payment of Interest

It is anticipated, and this discussion assumes, that the Notes will be issued with no more than a de minimis amount of original issue discount (“OID”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes, in which case interest on the Notes generally will be taxable to a U.S. holder as ordinary income at the time that it is received or accrued, in accordance with the U.S. holder’s method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If, however, the issue price of the Notes is less than their stated principal amount and the difference is more than a de minimis amount (as set forth in the applicable Treasury Regulations), a U.S. holder will be required to include the difference in income as OID as it accrues in accordance with a constant yield method.

Notwithstanding any discussion herein, accrual method taxpayers may be required to include stated interest, original issue discount, and other income on a Note no later than the taxable year in which the relevant item is taken into account as revenue in an applicable financial statement (if any). Accrual method taxpayers should consult their tax advisers concerning the application of these rules in their particular situations.

Sale, Exchange, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition of Notes

A U.S. holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss upon the sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition of a Note equal to the difference between the amount realized (less accrued interest, which will be taxable as ordinary interest income to the extent that the holder has not previously included the accrued interest in gross income) upon the sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition and such U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Note. A U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in a Note generally will be the cost of the Note to such U.S. holder. Capital gain of a non-corporate U.S. holder is currently taxed at a reduced rate if the U.S. holder has held the Note for more than one year. Subject to limited exceptions, the deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations under the Code.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Information reporting requirements generally will apply to payments of interest on the Notes and to the proceeds of a sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other disposition of a Note paid to a U.S. holder unless the U.S. holder is an exempt recipient (such as a corporation) and properly establishes its exemption.

Backup withholding generally will apply to those payments if the U.S. holder fails to provide, under penalties of perjury, a properly executed IRS Form W-9 or substantially similar form that contains:

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules generally will be allowed as a refund or a credit against your U.S. federal income tax liability provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

S-27

Additional Tax on Net Investment Income

Certain U.S. holders who are individuals, estates or trusts may be required to pay an additional 3.8% tax on, among other things, interest on and capital gains from the sale or other taxable disposition of the Notes. U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the effect, if any, of this additional tax on their ownership and disposition of the Notes.

Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders

This subsection describes the tax consequences to a non-U.S. holder relating to the purchase, ownership, and disposition of the Notes.

Interest

Subject to the discussion below concerning backup withholding and FATCA (as defined below), all payments of interest and principal on the Notes made to a non-U.S. holder will be exempt from U.S. federal income tax, provided that: (i) such non-U.S. holder does not own, actually or constructively, 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of our stock entitled to vote, (ii) such non-U.S. holder is not a controlled foreign corporation related, directly or indirectly, to us through stock ownership, (iii) such non-U.S. holder is not a bank receiving certain types of interest, and (iv) the beneficial owner of the Notes certifies, under penalties of perjury, to us or our paying agent on IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or appropriate substitute form), that it is not a United States person and provides its name, address and certain other required information or certain other certification requirements are satisfied.

If a non-U.S. holder cannot satisfy the requirements described above, payments of interest will be subject to a 30% U.S. federal withholding tax, unless such non-U.S. holder provides us with a properly executed (i) IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or appropriate substitute form), claiming an exemption from or reduction in withholding under the benefit of an applicable income tax treaty or (ii) IRS Form W-8ECI (or appropriate substitute form) stating that interest paid or accrued on the Notes is not subject to withholding tax because it is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States.

Sale, Exchange, Retirement or Other Disposition of the Notes

Subject to the discussion below concerning backup withholding and FATCA (as defined below) and except with respect to accrued but unpaid interest, which will be taxable as described above under “—Interest,” a non-U.S. holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax on the receipt of payments of principal on a Note, or on any gain recognized upon the sale, exchange, retirement or other disposition of a Note, unless in the case of gain (i) such gain is effectively connected with the conduct by such non-U.S. holder of a trade or business within the United States and, if a treaty applies (and the holder complies with applicable certification and other requirements to claim treaty benefits), is attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by the non-U.S. holder within the United States or (ii) such non-U.S. holder is an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of disposition, and certain other conditions are met.

Income Effectively Connected with a U.S. Trade or Business

If a non-U.S. holder of Notes is engaged in a trade or business in the United States, and if interest on the Notes or gain realized on the sale, exchange, or other disposition of the Notes is effectively connected with the conduct of such trade or business, the non-U.S. holder generally will be subject to regular U.S. federal income tax on such income or gain in the same manner as if the non-U.S. holder were a U.S. holder. If the non-U.S. holder is eligible for the benefits of an income tax treaty between the United States and the holder’s country of residence, any “effectively connected” income or gain generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax only if it is also attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base maintained by the holder in the United States.

S-28

Payments of interest that are effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business (and, if an applicable income tax treaty so requires, attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base), and therefore included in the gross income of a non-U.S. holder, will not be subject to the 30% withholding tax provided that the holder claims exemption from withholding. To claim exemption from withholding, the holder must certify its qualification, which can be done by filing a properly executed IRS Form W-8ECI. In addition, if such a non-U.S. holder is a foreign corporation, such holder may also be subject to a branch profits tax equal to 30% (or such lower rate provided by an applicable treaty) of its effectively connected earnings and profits for the taxable year, subject to certain adjustments.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Payments of interest made to a non-U.S. holder, and amounts withheld from such payments, if any, generally will be required to be reported to the IRS. The IRS may make this information available under the provisions of an applicable tax treaty to the tax authorities in the country in which the non-U.S. holder is a resident. Backup withholding tax generally will not apply to payments of interest and principal on a Note to a non-U.S. holder if the non-U.S. holder duly provides certification of foreign status such as an IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, described in “—Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders—Interest” or if the non-U.S. holder otherwise establishes an exemption from backup withholding, provided that the Company does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that such holder is a U.S. person.

Payments to a non-U.S. holder of the proceeds of a sale of a Note effected by the U.S. office of a U.S. or foreign broker will be subject to information reporting requirements and backup withholding unless the non-U.S. holder properly certifies under penalties of perjury as to its foreign status and certain other conditions are met or such non-U.S. holder otherwise establishes an exemption. Information reporting requirements and backup withholding generally will not apply to any payment of the proceeds of the sale of a Note effected outside the United States by a foreign office of a broker. Unless such a broker has documentary evidence in its records that such holder is a non-U.S. holder and certain other conditions are met or such holder otherwise establishes an exemption, however, information reporting will apply to a payment of the proceeds of the sale of a Note effected outside the United States by certain brokers with substantial connections to the United States.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amount withheld under the backup withholding rules generally will be allowed as a refund or a credit against your U.S. federal income tax liability provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act

Provisions of the Code commonly referred to as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”) impose a 30% U.S. federal withholding tax on certain U.S. source payments, including interest (and OID, if any), dividends, and other fixed or determinable annual or periodical gain, profits, and income, and, subject to the discussion below, on the gross proceeds from a disposition of property of a type which can produce U.S. source interest or dividends (“Withholdable Payments”), if paid to a foreign financial institution (including amounts paid to a foreign financial institution on behalf of a holder), unless such institution enters into an agreement with the U.S. Treasury Department to collect and provide to the U.S. Treasury Department certain information regarding U.S. financial account holders with such institution (including certain account holders that are foreign entities with U.S. owners) or otherwise complies with FATCA. In addition, the Notes may constitute a “financial account” for these purposes and therefore be subject to information reporting requirements pursuant to FATCA. FATCA also generally imposes a withholding tax of 30% on Withholdable Payments made to a non-financial foreign entity unless such entity provides the withholding agent with a certification that it does not have any substantial U.S. owners or a certification identifying the direct and indirect substantial U.S. owners of the entity. Under certain circumstances, a holder may be eligible for refunds or credits of such taxes.

S-29

Under proposed Treasury regulations (upon which taxpayers may generally rely until applicable final regulations are issued or such proposed Treasury regulations are rescinded), gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of the Notes will not be subject to withholding under FATCA. If we determine withholding is appropriate with respect to the Notes, we will withhold tax at the applicable statutory rate, and we will not pay any additional amounts in respect of such withholding. Foreign financial institutions and non-financial foreign entities located in jurisdictions that have an intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing FATCA may be subject to different rules. Prospective investors are urged to consult with their own tax advisors regarding the possible implications of FATCA on their investment in the Notes.

S-30

UNDERWRITING (CONFLICTS OF INTEREST)

J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, BNY Mellon Capital Markets, LLC, BofA Securities, Inc. and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC are acting as representatives of each of the underwriters listed below. Subject to the terms and conditions of the underwriting agreement, we have agreed to sell to the underwriters, and each underwriter has severally and not jointly agreed to purchase, the aggregate principal amount of the Notes set forth opposite its name below.

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the underwriting agreement, the underwriters have agreed, severally and not jointly, to purchase all of the Notes sold under the underwriting agreement if any of the Notes are purchased. If an underwriter defaults, the underwriting agreement provides that the purchase commitments of the nondefaulting underwriters may be increased or the underwriting agreement may be terminated.

We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters and their controlling persons against certain liabilities in connection with this offering, including liabilities under the Securities Act or to contribute to payments the underwriters may be required to make in respect of those liabilities.

The underwriters are offering the Notes, subject to prior sale, when, as and if issued to and accepted by them, subject to approval of legal matters by their counsel, including the validity of the Notes, and other conditions contained in the underwriting agreement, such as the receipt by the underwriters of officers’ certificates and legal opinions. The underwriters reserve the right to withdraw, cancel or modify offers to the public and to reject orders in whole or in part.

Commissions and Discounts

The representatives have advised us that the underwriters propose initially to offer the Notes to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement and to certain dealers at such price less a concession not in excess of 0.50% of the principal amount of the Notes. The underwriters may allow, and such dealers may reallow, a concession not in excess of 0.25% of the principal amount of the Notes. After the initial offering of the Notes, the offering price and other selling terms of the offering may be changed.

The expenses of the offering of the Notes payable by us, not including the underwriting discount, are estimated at $1,113,000.

New Issue of Notes

The Notes are a new issue of securities with no established trading market. We do not intend to apply for listing of the Notes on any securities exchange or for inclusion of the Notes on any automated dealer quotation system. We have been advised by certain of 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

S-31

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.

Short Positions

In connection with the offering of the Notes, certain of the underwriters may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the Notes. Specifically, the underwriters may overallot in connection with the offering, creating a short position. In addition, the underwriters may bid for, and purchase, the Notes in the open market to cover short positions or to stabilize the price of the Notes. Any of these activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of the Notes above independent market levels, but no representation is made hereby of the magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the market price of the Notes. The underwriters will not be required to engage in these activities, and may engage in these activities, and may end any of these activities, at any time without notice. In connection with the offering of the Notes, 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 amount 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 Notes in the offering.

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.

Neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of the Notes. In addition, neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation that the underwriters will engage in these transactions or that these transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

The underwriters also may impose a penalty bid. This occurs when a particular underwriter repays to the underwriters a portion of the underwriting discount received by it because the underwriters or their affiliates have repurchased Notes sold by or for the account of such underwriter in stabilizing or short covering transactions.

Conflicts of Interest

We intend to use a portion of the net proceeds of this offering to reduce borrowings under our Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2021, $191 million was outstanding under the Credit Facility. J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, BNY Mellon Capital Markets, LLC, BofA Securities, Inc. and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, each of which are underwriters of the offering of the Notes, are affiliates of JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A, The Bank of New York Mellon, Bank of America, N.A.. and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, respectively, each of which are lenders under the Credit Facility and have been paid customary fees in connection therewith. Such affiliates may each receive 5% or more of the net proceeds of this offering due to the repayment of a portion of the outstanding balance under the Credit Facility. Therefore, such underwriters would be considered to have a “conflict of interest” with us in regard to this offering under Rule 5121 of FINRA. Pursuant to that rule, the appointment of a qualified independent underwriter is not necessary in connection with the offering because the offering is of a class of securities that are investment grade rated. No affected underwriter will confirm sales to any account over which it exercises discretionary authority without the prior written consent of the account holder.

S-32

Other Relationships

Certain 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, including entering into derivative transactions, with us or our affiliates for which they have received and may continue to receive customary fees and commissions.

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. If any of the underwriters or their affiliates has a lending relationship with us, certain of those underwriters or their affiliates routinely hedge, and certain other of those underwriters or their affiliates may hedge, their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. Typically, these 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 credit default swaps or short positions could adversely affect future trading prices of the Notes offered hereby. The underwriters and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

In addition, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A, which is an affiliate of BNY Mellon Capital Markets, LLC, is the trustee under the 2012 Indenture, the 2013 Indenture, the 2016 Indenture, the 2018 Indenture and the 2020 Indenture, for which it has been paid customary fees. The Bank of New York Mellon is the lender under the 2022 Term Loan.

Selling Restrictions

Canada

The Notes may be sold only to purchasers purchasing, or deemed to be purchasing, as principal, that are accredited investors, as defined in National Instrument 45-106 Prospectus Exemptions or subsection 73.3(1) of the Securities Act (Ontario), and are permitted clients, as defined in National Instrument 31-103 Registration Requirements, Exemptions and Ongoing Registrant Obligations. Any resale of the Notes must be made in accordance with an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the prospectus requirements of applicable securities laws.

Securities legislation in certain provinces or territories of Canada may provide a purchaser with remedies for rescission or damages if this prospectus supplement (including any amendment thereto) contains a misrepresentation, provided that the remedies for rescission or damages are exercised by the purchaser within the time limit prescribed by the securities legislation of the purchaser’s province or territory. The purchaser should refer to any applicable provisions of the securities legislation of the purchaser’s province or territory for particulars of these rights or consult with a legal advisor.

Pursuant to section 3A.3 of National Instrument 33-105 Underwriting Conflicts (“NI 33-105”), the underwriters are not required to comply with the disclosure requirements of NI 33-105 regarding underwriter conflicts of interest in connection with this offering.

European Economic Area

The Notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area (“EEA”). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of

S-33

Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, “MiFID II”); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive 2002/92/EC (as amended, the “Insurance Mediation Directive”), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in Directive 2003/71/EC (as amended, the “Prospectus Directive”).

Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the “PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPS Regulation.

This prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus have been prepared on the basis that any offer of Notes in any Member State of the EEA will be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Directive from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of Notes. This prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus are not a prospectus for the purposes of the Prospectus Directive.

PRIIPs Regulation/Prohibition of Sales to UK Retail Investors

The Notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the United Kingdom (“UK”). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client, as defined in point (8) of Article 2 of Regulation (EU) No 2017/565 as it forms part of UK domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (“EUWA”); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of the provisions of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (“FSMA”) and any rules or regulations made under the FSMA to implement Directive (EU) 2016/97, where that customer would not qualify as a professional client, as defined in point (8) of Article 2(1) of Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 as it forms part of UK domestic law by virtue of the EUWA (the “UK PRIIPs Regulation”); or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in Article 2 of Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 as it forms part of UK domestic law by virtue of the EUWA. For the purpose of this provision, the expression “an offer” includes 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 for the Notes. Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 as it forms part of UK domestic law by virtue of the UK PRIIPs Regulation for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the UK has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the UK may be unlawful under the UK PRIIPs Regulation.

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES

For purposes of this “Description of Debt Securities,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to the relevant issuer of debt securities, Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. or Southwest Gas Corporation, as the case may be, and not to their respective subsidiaries.

When we offer to sell a particular series of debt securities, we will describe the specific terms of the series in a prospectus supplement. We will also indicate in any applicable prospectus supplement whether the general terms and provisions described in this prospectus apply to a particular series of debt securities. Unless otherwise specified in any applicable prospectus supplement, the senior debt securities will be our direct, unsecured obligations and will rank equally with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. To the extent we issue secured or subordinated debt securities, the terms will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

The debt securities of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. will be issued under an indenture between Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (the “Holdings Indenture”) in the form included as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Unless otherwise specified in any applicable prospectus supplement, the debt securities of Southwest Gas Corporation will be issued under the indenture, dated as of June 4, 2020, by and between Southwest Gas Corporation and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (the “Corporation Indenture” and, together with the Holdings Indenture, the “Indentures”). Each Indenture describes the terms of the debt securities and does not limit the amount of debt securities or other unsecured, senior debt we may issue. We have summarized the general terms and provisions of the debt securities to be governed by each Indenture. The summary is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, all provisions of the indenture and the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”). A form of each Indenture has been filed as an exhibit to the registration statement that we have filed with the SEC, of which this prospectus forms a part. We encourage you to read the Indentures. Capitalized terms used in this description of our debt securities have the meanings ascribed to them in the applicable Indenture.

General

The terms of each series of debt securities will be established by our board of directors or a committee thereof and set forth or determined in the manner provided in an Officers’ Certificate or by a supplemental indenture to the relevant Indenture. The particular terms of each series of debt securities will be described in a prospectus supplement relating to such series.

We may issue debt securities in one or more series with the same or various maturities, at par, at a premium or at a discount. We need not issue all debt securities of one series at the same time and, unless otherwise provided, we may without the consent of the holders of the debt securities of that series reopen a series and issue additional debt securities of that series. We will set forth in a prospectus supplement the aggregate principal amount of any series of debt securities being offered and their specific terms, including, to the extent applicable, the following terms:

Transfer and Exchange

Each debt security will be represented by either one or more global securities registered in the name of The Depository Trust Company, as depositary, or a nominee (which we refer to, in the case of any debt security represented by a global debt security, as a “book-entry debt security”), or a certificate issued in definitive registered form (which we refer to, in the case of any debt security represented by a certificated security, as a “certificated debt security”) as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. Except as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, book-entry debt securities will not be issuable in certificated form.

You may transfer or exchange certificated debt securities at any office we maintain for this purpose in accordance with the terms of the indenture. No service charge will be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of certificated debt securities, but we may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover all taxes, assessments or other governmental charges that may be imposed in connection with a transfer or exchange.

You may effect the transfer of certificated debt securities and the right to receive the principal of, and any premium and interest on, certificated debt securities only by surrendering the certificate representing those certificated debt securities and either execution by us, and authentication and delivery by the Trustee, of the certificate to the new holder or execution by us, and authentication and delivery by the Trustee, of a new certificate to the new holder.

Covenants

We will set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement any financial or restrictive covenants applicable to any issue of debt securities.

No Protection in the Event of a Change of Control

Unless we state otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, the debt securities will not contain any provisions which may afford holders of the debt securities protection in the event we have a change in control or in the event of a highly leveraged transaction (whether or not such transaction results in a change in control) which could adversely affect holders of debt securities.

Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets

We or any guarantor of the debt securities shall not consolidate with or sell, lease or convey all or substantially all of our properties or assets to, or merge with or into, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, any Person unless:

“Event of Default” means with respect to any series of debt securities, any of the following:

A Default constituting a Covenant Default with respect to a particular series of debt securities (except as to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization) is not an Event of Default until the Trustee (by written notice to us) or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series (by written notice to us and the Trustee) gives notice of the Default and we do not cure such Default within 90 days after receipt of such notice.

No Event of Default with respect to a particular series of debt securities (except as to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization) necessarily constitutes an Event of Default with respect to any other series of debt securities. The occurrence of certain Events of Default or an acceleration under the relevant Indenture may constitute an event of default under certain indebtedness of ours or our Subsidiaries outstanding from time to time.

In the case of an Event of Default resulting from certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding debt securities will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any holder of outstanding debt securities. If any other Event of Default with respect to debt securities of any series at the time outstanding occurs and is continuing, then the Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series may, by a notice in writing to us (and to the Trustee if given by the

11

holders), declare to be due and payable immediately the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all debt securities of that series. At any time after a declaration of acceleration with respect to debt securities of any series has been made, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series may rescind the acceleration and its consequences if all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of accelerated principal and interest, if any, with respect to debt securities of that series, have been cured or waived as provided in the relevant Indenture. We refer you to the applicable prospectus supplement relating to any series of debt securities that are discount securities for the particular provisions relating to acceleration of a portion of the principal amount of such discount securities upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.

The Indentures provide that the Trustee may refuse to perform any duty or exercise any of its rights or powers under the relevant Indenture unless the Trustee receives indemnity and/or security reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense which might be incurred by it in performing such duty or exercising such right or power. Subject to certain rights of the Trustee, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the debt securities of that series.

No holder of any debt security of any series will have any right to pursue any remedy under the relevant Indenture or that series of debt securities, unless:

Notwithstanding any other provision in the relevant Indenture, the holder of any series of debt security will have an absolute and unconditional right to receive payment of the principal, premium and any interest on that debt security on or after the due dates expressed in that series of debt security and to institute suit for the enforcement of payment.

Each Indenture requires us, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, to deliver to the Trustee a certificate as to compliance with such Indenture.

Modification and Waiver

We and the Trustee may modify, amend or supplement the relevant Indenture or the debt securities of any series without notice to or the consent of any holder of any debt security:

12

We may also modify and amend the relevant Indenture with the written consent of the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of each series affected by the modifications or amendments. We may not make any modification or amendment without the consent of each affected holder of a series of debt securities then outstanding if that amendment will:

13

Except for certain specified provisions, the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may on behalf of the holders of all debt securities of that series waive our compliance with provisions of the relevant Indenture. The holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may on behalf of the holders of all the debt securities of such series waive any past default under the relevant Indenture with respect to that series and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal, premium or any interest on any debt security of that series; provided, however, that the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from the acceleration.

Discharge of Debt Securities

When all outstanding debt securities of any series will become due and payable at their stated maturity within one year and we have deposited (or caused to be deposited) with the Trustee cash sufficient to pay and discharge all outstanding debt securities of such series on the date of their stated maturity, then we may satisfy and discharge our obligations under the relevant Indenture with respect to such debt securities while they remain outstanding.

No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees or Stockholders

None of our past, present or future directors, officers, employees or stockholders, as such, will have any liability for any of our obligations under the debt securities or the relevant Indenture or for any claim based on, or in respect or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. By accepting a debt security, each holder waives and releases all such liability. This waiver and release is part of the consideration for the issue of the debt securities. However, this waiver and release may not be effective to waive liabilities under U.S. federal securities laws, and it is the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against public policy.

Governing Law

The Indentures and the debt securities will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York.

Concerning the Trustee

The Indentures and provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, which are incorporated by reference therein, contain limitations on the rights of the Trustee, should it become one of our creditors, to obtain payment of claims in certain cases, or to realize on property received in respect of any such claim, as security or otherwise. The Trustee and its affiliates may engage in, and will be permitted to continue to engage in, other transactions with us and our affiliates; provided, however, that if it acquires any conflicting interest (as defined in the Trust Indenture Act), it must eliminate the conflict or resign. The Trust Indenture Act and the relevant Indenture provide that in case an Event of Default shall occur (and be continuing), the Trustee will be required, in the exercise of its rights and powers, to use the same degree of care and skill of a prudent person in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. Subject to such provision, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the relevant Indenture at the request of any of the holders of the debt securities issued thereunder, unless they have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it.

14

DESCRIPTION OF GUARANTEES

The debt securities of any series of the applicable issuer may have the benefit of guarantees (each, a “Guarantee”), by one or more of its subsidiaries (each, a “Guarantor”). In the case of Southwest Gas Corporation, the debt securities may or may not be guaranteed by Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc., its direct parent. The Guarantees, if any, will be the unsubordinated and, unless otherwise expressly stated in the applicable prospectus supplement, unsecured obligations of the respective Guarantors. The Guarantors of any series of guaranteed debt securities of each issuer may differ from the Guarantors of any other series of guaranteed debt securities of each issuer. In the event Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. or Southwest Gas Corporation, as applicable, issues a series of guaranteed debt securities, the specific Guarantors of the debt securities of that series will be identified in the applicable prospectus supplement.

If Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. or Southwest Gas Corporation, as applicable, issues a series of guaranteed debt securities, a description of some of the terms of Guarantees of those debt securities will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. Unless otherwise provided in the prospectus supplement relating to a series of guaranteed debt securities, each Guarantor of the debt securities of such series will unconditionally guarantee the due and punctual payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on and any other amounts payable with respect to, each debt security of such series and the due and punctual performance of all of the applicable issuer’s other obligations under the applicable Indenture with respect to the debt securities of such series, all in accordance with the terms of such debt securities and the applicable Indenture.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise provided in the prospectus supplement relating to a series of guaranteed debt securities, the applicable Indenture will contain provisions to the effect that the obligations of each Guarantor under its Guarantees and such Indenture shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under such Guarantees and such Indenture not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law. However, there can be no assurance that, notwithstanding such limitation, a court would not determine that a Guarantee constituted a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law. If that were to occur, the court could void the applicable Guarantor’s obligations under that Guarantee, subordinate that Guarantee to other debt and other liabilities of that Guarantor or take other action detrimental to holders of the debt securities of the applicable series, including directing the holders to return any payments received from the applicable Guarantor.

The applicable prospectus supplement relating to any series of guaranteed debt securities will specify other terms of the applicable Guarantees, which may include provisions that allow a Guarantor to be released from its obligations under its Guarantee under specified circumstances or that provide for one or more Guarantees to be secured by specified collateral.

Unless otherwise expressly stated in the applicable prospectus supplement, each Guarantee will be the unsubordinated and unsecured obligation of the applicable Guarantor and will rank on a parity in right of payment with all other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness and guarantees of such Guarantor. Each Guarantee (other than a secured Guarantee) will be effectively subordinated to all existing and future secured indebtedness and secured guarantees of the applicable Guarantor to the extent of the value of the collateral securing that indebtedness and those guarantees. Consequently, in the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or similar proceeding with respect to any Guarantor that has provided an unsecured Guarantee of any debt securities, the holders of that Guarantor’s secured indebtedness and secured guarantees will be entitled to proceed directly against the collateral that secures that secured indebtedness or those secured guarantees, as the case may be, and such collateral will not be available for satisfaction of any amount owed by such Guarantor under its unsecured indebtedness and unsecured guarantees, including its unsecured Guarantees of any debt securities, until that secured debt and those secured guarantees are satisfied in full. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, the Indentures will not limit the ability of any Guarantor to incur secured indebtedness or issue secured guarantees.

15

Unless otherwise expressly stated in the applicable prospectus supplement, each secured Guarantee will be an unsubordinated obligation of the applicable Guarantor and will rank on a parity in right of payment with all other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness and guarantees of such Guarantor, except that such secured Guarantee will effectively rank senior to such Guarantor’s unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness and guarantees in respect of claims against the collateral securing that secured Guarantee.

16

DESCRIPTION OF DEPOSITARY SHARES

The following description of depositary shares is only a summary and is qualified by any prospectus supplement and deposit agreement and depositary receipt used in connection with the issuance of each series of preferred stock issued through the use of depositary shares. Therefore, you should read carefully the more detailed description that would be contained in any prospectus supplement and form of deposit agreement and depositary receipt, copies of which are incorporated by reference as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

We may offer fractional shares of preferred stock by issuing receipts for depositary shares. The shares of any series of preferred stock represented by depositary shares will be deposited with a bank or trust company and the holders will be issued a depositary receipt entitling them, in proportion to the fraction of a share the receipt represents, to all the rights and preferences of the preferred stock, as more fully described above under the heading “Description of Capital Stock—Preferred Stock.”

The bank or trust company that will be the depositary will function as the intermediary between Southwest Gas Holdings and the holders of the depositary receipts. Dividends and other distributions will be provided to the depositary for ultimate distribution to the holders. Redemption of the depositary shares and voting the underlying preferred stock will also be coordinated through the depositary. Holders will have the right to surrender their depositary receipts to the depositary and be entitled to receive whole shares of preferred stock that are represented by such receipts. Though the preferred stock will continue to have all of the rights and preferences, there may be no market opportunity to trade such stock and once withdrawn from the depositary, it may not be redeposited.

We will pay all transfer and other taxes and governmental charges arising solely from the existence of the depositary arrangement. Southwest Gas Holdings will also pay charges of the depositary in connection with the initial deposit of the preferred stock and the initial issuance of the depositary receipts, any redemption of the preferred stock and any withdrawal of preferred stock by the holder of the depositary shares. Holders will pay other transfer and other taxes and governmental charges and such other charges specifically provided in the deposit agreement for their individual accounts.

DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS

General

We may issue warrants to purchase debt securities, common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares or any combination of these securities. We may issue the warrants independently or together with any underlying securities, and the warrants may be attached or separate from the underlying securities. We may also issue a series of warrants under a separate warrant agreement to be entered into between us and a warrant agent. The warrant agent will act solely as our agent in connection with the warrants of such series and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency for or with holders or beneficial owners of warrants.

The following description is a summary of selected provisions relating to the warrants that we may issue. The summary is not complete. When warrants are offered in the future, a prospectus supplement, or other offering material as applicable, will explain the particular terms of those securities and the extent to which these general provisions may apply. The specific terms of the warrants as described in a prospectus supplement will supplement and, if applicable, may modify or replace the general terms described in this section.

This summary and any description of warrants in the applicable prospectus supplement or other offering material is subject to and is qualified in its entirety by reference to all the provisions of any specific warrant document or agreement, which we will file with the SEC for incorporation by reference into this prospectus. See “Where You Can Find More Information” and “Incorporation by Reference” for information on how to obtain a copy of a warrant document when it is filed.

17

When we refer to a series of warrants, we mean all warrants issued as part of the same series under the applicable warrant agreement.

Terms

The prospectus supplement relating to any warrants that we may offer will contain the specific terms of the warrants. These terms may include the following:

Warrant Agreements

We may issue the warrants in one or more series under one or more warrant agreements, each to be entered into between us and a bank, trust company, or other financial institution as warrant agent. We may add, replace, or terminate warrant agents from time to time. We may also choose to act as our own warrant agent or may choose one of our subsidiaries to do so.

The warrant agent under a warrant agreement will act solely as our agent in connection with the warrants issued under that agreement. The warrant agent will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with any holders of those warrants. Any holder of warrants may, without the consent of any other person, enforce by appropriate legal action, on its own behalf, its right to exercise those warrants in accordance with their terms. Until the warrant is properly exercised, no holder of any warrant will be entitled to any rights of a holder of the warrant property purchasable upon exercise of the warrant.

Form, Exchange, and Transfer

We may issue the warrants in registered form or bearer form. Warrants issued in registered form, i.e., book-entry form, will be represented by a global security registered in the name of a depository, which will be

18

the holder of all the warrants represented by the global security. Those investors who own beneficial interests in a global warrant will do so through participants in the depository’s system, and the rights of these indirect owners will be governed solely by the applicable procedures of the depository and its participants. In addition, we may issue warrants in non-global form, i.e., bearer form. If any warrants are issued in non-global form, warrant certificates may be exchanged for new warrant certificates of different denominations, and holders may exchange, transfer, or exercise their warrants at the warrant agent’s office or any other office indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement or other offering material.

Prior to the exercise of their warrants, holders of warrants exercisable for debt securities will not have any of the rights of holders of the debt securities purchasable upon such exercise and will not be entitled to payments of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on the debt securities purchasable upon such exercise. Prior to the exercise of their warrants, holders of warrants exercisable for shares of preferred stock or common stock will not have any rights of holders of the preferred stock or common stock purchasable upon such exercise and will not be entitled to dividend payments, if any, or voting rights of the preferred stock or common stock purchasable upon such exercise.

Exercise of Warrants

A warrant will entitle the holder to purchase for cash an amount of securities at an exercise price that will be stated in, or that will be determinable as described in, the applicable prospectus supplement or other offering material. Warrants may be exercised at any time up to the close of business on the expiration date set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement or other offering material. After the close of business on the expiration date, unexercised warrants will become void.

Warrants may be exercised as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement or other offering material. Upon receipt of payment and the warrant certificate properly completed and duly executed at the corporate trust office of the warrant agent or any other office indicated in the prospectus supplement or other offering material, we will forward, as soon as practicable, the securities purchasable upon such exercise. If less than all of the warrants represented by such warrant certificate are exercised, a new warrant certificate will be issued for the remaining warrants.

DESCRIPTION OF UNITS

General

We may issue units composed of any combination of our debt securities, common stock, preferred stock, and warrants. We will issue each unit so that the holder of the unit is also the holder of each security included in the unit. As a result, the holder of a unit will have the rights and obligations of a holder of each included security. The unit agreement under which a unit is issued may provide that the securities included in the unit may not be held or transferred separately, at any time or at any time before a specified date.

The following description is a summary of selected provisions relating to units that we may offer. The summary is not complete. When units are offered in the future, a prospectus supplement, or other offering material as applicable, will explain the particular terms of those securities and the extent to which these general provisions may apply. The specific terms of the units as described in a prospectus supplement will supplement and, if applicable, may modify or replace the general terms described in this section.

This summary and any description of units in the applicable prospectus supplement or other offering material is subject to and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the unit agreement and, if applicable, collateral arrangements and depositary arrangements relating to such units. We will file these documents with the SEC for incorporation by reference into this prospectus. See “Where You Can Find More Information” and “Incorporation by Reference” for information on how to obtain a copy of a document when it is filed.

19

The applicable prospectus supplement or other offering material may describe:

The applicable provisions described in this section, as well as those described under “Description of Debt Securities,” “Description of Guarantees,” “Description of Capital Stock” and “Description of Warrants,” will apply to each unit and to each security included in each unit, respectively.

DESCRIPTION OF RIGHTS

We may from time to time, issue rights to purchase our debt securities, common stock, preferred stock or other securities. The rights may or may not be transferable by the persons purchasing or receiving the rights. In connection with any rights offering, we may enter into a standby underwriting or other arrangement with one or more underwriters or other persons pursuant to which such underwriters or other persons would purchase any offered securities remaining unsubscribed after such rights offering.

Each series of rights will be issued under a separate rights agreement to be entered into, from time to time, between us and a bank or trust company, as rights agent, all as set forth in a prospectus supplement relating to the particular issue of rights. The rights agent will act solely as an agent of ours in connection with the certificates relating to the rights and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with any holders of rights certificates or beneficial owners of rights.

The following description is a summary of selected provisions relating to rights that we may offer. The summary is not complete. When rights are offered in the future, a prospectus supplement, or other offering material as applicable, will explain the particular terms of those securities and the extent to which these general provisions may apply. The specific terms of the rights as described in a prospectus supplement will supplement and, if applicable, may modify or replace the general terms described in this section.

This summary and any description of units in the applicable prospectus supplement or other offering material is subject to and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the rights agreement and, if applicable, underwriting or other arrangements relating to such rights. We will file these documents with the SEC for incorporation by reference into this prospectus. See “Where You Can Find More Information” and “Incorporation by Reference” for information on how to obtain a copy of a document when it is filed.

The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the terms of the rights to be issued, including the following where applicable:

20

If less than all of the rights issued in any rights offering are exercised, we may offer any unsubscribed securities directly to persons other than our security holders, to or through agents, underwriters or dealer or through a combination of such methods, including pursuant to standby arrangements, as described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

21

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We may sell the securities described in this prospectus from time to time in one or more transactions:

We may sell the securities directly to institutional investors or others who may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act, with respect to any resale of the securities. A prospectus supplement will describe the terms of any sale of securities we are offering hereunder. Direct sales may be arranged by a securities broker-dealer or other financial intermediary.

The applicable prospectus supplement will name any underwriter involved in a sale of securities. Underwriters may offer and sell securities at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, or from time to time at market prices or at negotiated prices. Underwriters may be deemed to have received compensation from us from sales of securities in the form of underwriting discounts or commissions and may also receive commissions from purchasers of securities for whom they may act as agent. Underwriters may be involved in any “at the market” offering of securities by or on our behalf.

Underwriters may sell securities to or through dealers, and such dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters and/or commissions (which may be changed from time to time) from the purchasers for whom they may act as agent.

Unless we state otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, the obligations of any underwriters to purchase securities will be subject to certain conditions precedent, and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the securities if any are purchased.

The applicable prospectus supplement will set forth whether or not underwriters may over-allot or effect transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the securities at levels above those that might otherwise prevail in the open market, including, for example, by entering stabilizing bids, effecting syndicate covering transactions or imposing penalty bids.

We will name any agent involved in a sale of securities, as well as any commissions payable to such agent, in a prospectus supplement. Unless we state otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, any such agent will be acting on a reasonable efforts basis for the period of its appointment.

If a dealer is utilized in the sale of the securities being offered pursuant to this prospectus, we and/or one or more selling stockholders will sell the securities to the dealer, as principal. The dealer may then resell the securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by the dealer at the time of resale.

Underwriters, dealers and agents participating in a sale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriters as defined in the Securities Act, and any discounts and commissions received by them and any profit realized by them on resale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions, under the Securities Act. We may have agreements with underwriters, dealers and agents to indemnify them against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to reimburse them for certain expenses.

22
