On March 8, 2006, Sabre Holdings Corporation (“Sabre”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, for itself and as a representative of the several underwriters identified therein (the “Underwriters”) in connection with Sabre’s public offering of $400 million 6.350% Senior Notes due 2016 (the “Notes”). Sabre expects to receive net proceeds, before expenses, of $395.9 million, which is subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions set forth in the Underwriting Agreement. The Notes will be issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 3, 2001, between Sabre and SunTrust Bank, as Trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by a Second Supplemental Indenture to be entered into between Sabre and the Trustee.

 

The offering of the Notes was registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, by a registration statement on Form S-3, as amended (Registration No. 333-99209), which includes the prospectus dated April 3, 2003 and final prospectus supplement dated March 8, 2006 (the “Registration Statement”).
