S-4
Table of Contents
Trading
The notes are new issues of securities with no established trading market. We do not intend to apply for
listing of the notes on any securities exchange. The underwriters have advised us that they intend to make a
market in each series of the notes, but they are not obligated to do so and may discontinue market-making at
any time without notice. See "Underwriting" beginning on page S-23 of this prospectus supplement for more
information about possible market-making by the underwriters.

Risk Factors
Investing in these notes involves risks that are described in the "Risk Factors" section of our Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2014 and beginning on page S-6 of this prospectus
supplement.

S-5
Table of Contents
RISK FACTORS
Investing in the notes involves risks. In connection with any investment in the notes, you should consider carefully (i) the factors identified under
the heading "Risk Factors" in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition" in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2014, (ii) the factors set forth below related to the notes, and (iii) the other information set forth
elsewhere in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement
and the accompanying prospectus.
The Indenture does not limit the amount of indebtedness that we may incur
The Indenture under which we will issue the notes and guarantees does not limit the amount of secured or unsecured indebtedness that we or our
subsidiaries may incur. In addition, other than the provisions relating to a Change of Control Repurchase Event, the Indenture, which is described below
under "Description of the Notes," also does not contain any debt covenants or provisions that afford holders of the notes protection in the event we
participate in a highly leveraged transaction.
We depend upon our subsidiaries to service our debt
We are a holding company and derive all of our operating income from our subsidiaries. Our only source of cash to pay principal of and premium,
if any, and interest on the notes is from dividends and other payments from our subsidiaries. Our subsidiaries' ability to make such payments may be
restricted by, among other things, applicable state and foreign corporate laws and other laws and regulations. In addition, our right and the rights of our
http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/230211/000104746915000079/a2222654z424b5.htm[1/7/2015 4:25:01 PM]


creditors, including holders of the notes, to participate in the assets of any subsidiary upon its liquidation or reorganization would be subject to the prior
claims of such subsidiary's creditors, except to the extent that we or a subsidiary guarantor may ourselves be a creditor with recognized claims against
such subsidiary. The notes will be guaranteed by certain subsidiary guarantors. See "Description of the Notes--General." If our subsidiaries do not
provide us with enough cash to make payments on the notes when due, you may have to proceed directly against the subsidiary guarantors.
The guarantees may be limited in duration
If we sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all of the capital stock or all or substantially all of the assets of a subsidiary guarantor to any person that
is not an affiliate of FedEx, the guarantee of that subsidiary will terminate and holders of the notes will no longer have a direct claim against such
subsidiary under the guarantee. See "Description of Debt Securities and Guarantees--Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Assets" in the accompanying
prospectus.
The guarantees may be challenged as fraudulent conveyances
Federal, state and foreign bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar laws could limit the enforceability of a guarantee. For
example, creditors of a subsidiary guarantor could claim that, since the guarantees were incurred for the benefit of FedEx (and only indirectly for the
benefit of a subsidiary guarantor), the obligation of a subsidiary guarantor was incurred for less than reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration.
If any of our subsidiary guarantors is deemed to have received less than reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration for its guarantee and, at the
time it gave the guarantee, that subsidiary guarantor:
·
was insolvent or rendered insolvent by giving its guarantee;
·
was engaged in a business or transaction for which its remaining assets constituted unreasonably small capital; or
·
intended to incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature,
S-6
Table of Contents
then the obligations of such subsidiary guarantor under its guarantee could be voided or subordinated to its other debts. If a court voided a guarantee as a
result of a fraudulent conveyance, then the holders of the notes would cease to have a claim against the subsidiary guarantor. To the extent that the
claims of holders of the notes against any subsidiary guarantor were subordinated in favor of other creditors of such subsidiary, such other creditors
would be entitled to be paid in full before any payment could be made on the notes. In this regard, in an attempt to limit the applicability of fraudulent
transfer laws, the Indenture limits the amount of each guarantee to the amount that will result in it not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.
However, we cannot assure you as to what standard a court would apply in making a determination regarding whether reasonably equivalent value or
fair consideration was received or as to what would be the maximum liability of each guarantor or whether this limitation would be effective in
protecting a guarantee from being voided under fraudulent transfer laws.
We may not be able to repurchase the notes upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event
Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Repurchase Event, unless we have exercised our right to redeem the notes, we will be required to
make an offer to each holder of the notes to repurchase all or any part of that holder's notes at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate
principal amount of such notes repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the notes repurchased to, but not including, the repurchase date.
It is possible that we will not have sufficient funds at the time of any Change of Control Repurchase Event to make the required repurchases of
notes. In order to obtain sufficient funds to pay the purchase price of the outstanding notes, we may need to refinance the notes. We cannot assure you
that we would be able to refinance the notes on reasonable terms, or at all. Our failure to offer to purchase all outstanding notes or to purchase all
validly tendered notes would be an event of default under the Indenture for the notes. Such an event of default may cause the acceleration of our other
debt. In addition, the terms of our other debt agreements or applicable law may limit our ability to repurchase the notes for cash. Our future debt also
may contain restrictions on repayment requirements with respect to specified events or transactions that constitute a change of control under the
Indenture.
Ratings of the notes could be lowered in the future
We expect that the notes will be rated "investment grade" by one or more nationally recognized statistical rating organizations. A rating is not a
recommendation to purchase, hold or sell the notes, since a rating does not predict the market price of a particular security or its suitability for a
particular investor. A rating organization may lower our rating or decide not to rate our securities in its sole discretion. The rating of the notes will be
based primarily on the rating organization's assessment of the likelihood of timely payment of interest when due on the notes and the ultimate payment
of principal of the notes on the final maturity date. The reduction, suspension or withdrawal of the ratings of the notes will not, in and of itself,

There are no established trading markets for the notes since they are new issues of securities. We do not intend to apply for the listing of the notes
on a national securities exchange. We cannot assure you as to the liquidity of the public markets for the notes or that any active public markets for the
notes will develop or continue. If active public markets do not develop or continue, the market prices and liquidity of the notes may be adversely
affected.

We may redeem your notes at our option and if a "tax event" occurs, which may adversely affect your return
The notes of any series may be redeemed, at our option, in whole or in part at any time at the applicable redemption prices described under
"Description of the Notes--Optional Redemption." In addition, as described under "Description of the Notes--Tax Event Redemption of the 2065
Notes," if a "tax event" (as defined below) occurs, the 2065 Notes may be redeemed, at our option, in whole, but not in part, at a redemption price equal
to 100% of the principal amount of the 2065 Notes being redeemed, plus accrued interest on the principal amount being redeemed to the redemption
date. We may exercise these redemption rights when prevailing interest rates are relatively low. As a result, should we redeem any notes, you may not
be able to reinvest the redemption proceeds in a comparable security at an effective interest rate as high as that of the notes redeemed.

DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES
The following, along with the additional information contained under "Description of Debt Securities and Guarantees" in the accompanying
prospectus, is a summary of the material provisions of the Indenture referred to below, the notes and the guarantees. Because this is a summary, it may
not contain all the information that may be important to you. For further information, you should read the Indenture, a copy of which is available from
us on request at the address specified in "Where You Can Find More Information" below. This summary is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by
reference to, all the provisions of the Indenture, including definitions of certain terms used in it. If any of the information set forth below is inconsistent
with information in the accompanying prospectus, the information set forth below, to the extent inconsistent therewith, replaces and supersedes the
information in the accompanying prospectus. If we use a term that is not defined in this prospectus supplement, you should refer to the definition that is
provided in the accompanying prospectus.
General
We are offering $400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our 2.300% Notes due 2020 (the "2020 Notes"), $700,000,000 aggregate principal
amount of our 3.200% Notes due 2025 (the "2025 Notes"), $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our 3.900% Notes due 2035 (the "2035
Notes"), $650,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our 4.100% Notes due 2045 (the "2045 Notes") and $250,000,000 aggregate principal amount of
our 4.500% Notes due 2065 (the "2065 Notes" and, collectively with the 2020 Notes, the 2025 Notes, the 2035 Notes and the 2045 Notes, the "notes").
The 2020 Notes, the 2025 Notes, the 2035 Notes, the 2045 Notes and the 2065 Notes will mature on February 1, 2020, February 1, 2025, February 1,
2035, February 1, 2045 and February 1, 2065, respectively, and will be issued as separate series under an indenture dated as of August 8, 2006, as
amended and supplemented by supplemental indenture no. 2 dated as of January 16, 2009, supplemental indenture no. 3 dated as of July 27, 2012 and
supplemental indenture no. 4 dated as of April 11, 2013 and as supplemented by supplemental indenture no. 5 dated as of January 9, 2014 and
supplemental indenture no. 6 to be dated as of January 9, 2015, among FedEx, the subsidiary guarantors named below and The Bank of New York
Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (collectively, the "Indenture"). The securities issued under the Indenture pursuant to supplemental indenture
no. 1 have matured and are no longer outstanding and, consequently, supplemental indenture no. 1 is no longer in effect.
The notes will be our direct unsecured and unsubordinated obligations and will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by FedEx Express, FedEx
Ground, FedEx Freight Corporation, FedEx Freight, FedEx Services, FedEx TechConnect, FedEx Office, Federal Express Europe, Inc., Federal Express
Holdings S.A. and Federal Express International, Inc. These subsidiaries currently guarantee our obligations under our outstanding unsecured debt
securities, revolving credit facility and letter of credit facility. If we sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all of the capital stock or all or substantially all
of the assets of a subsidiary guarantor to any person that is not an affiliate of FedEx, the guarantee of that subsidiary will automatically terminate and
holders of the notes will no longer have a direct claim against such subsidiary under the guarantee. See "Description of Debt Securities and Guarantees
--Guarantees" in the accompanying prospectus.
We may redeem each series of the notes in whole or in part at any time at the applicable redemption price described under "--Optional
Redemption" below. We may redeem the 2065 Notes upon the occurrence of a "tax event" (as defined below) at a redemption price equal to 100% of
the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, as described under "--Tax Event Redemption of the 2065 Notes." We may issue additional notes
of each series from time to time after this offering. The notes of each series and any additional new notes of such series subsequently issued under the
Indenture would be treated as a single series for all purposes under the Indenture, including, without limitation, waivers, amendments and redemptions.
If the additional notes, if any, are not fungible with
