On September 20, 2022, Dollar General Corporation (the “Company”) completed a registered, underwritten offering of $750,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 4.250% Notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”), $550,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 4.625% Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”), $700,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 5.000% Notes due 2032 (the “2032 Notes”) and $300,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 5.500% Notes due 2052 (the “2052 Notes” and, together with the 2024 Notes, the 2027 Notes and the 2032 Notes, the “Notes”). The sale of the Notes was made pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-237519) (the “Registration Statement”), including a prospectus supplement dated September 6, 2022 (the “Prospectus Supplement”) to the prospectus contained therein dated April 1, 2020 (the “Base Prospectus”), filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and a free writing prospectus dated September 6, 2022 (the “Free Writing Prospectus”), filed by the Company with the Commission, pursuant to Rule 433 under the Securities Act.
The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture (as supplemented and amended, the “Indenture”) dated as of July 12, 2012 between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by each of the tenth supplemental indenture dated as of September 20, 2022 between the Company and the Trustee (the “Tenth Supplemental Indenture”) relating to the 2024 Notes, the eleventh supplemental indenture dated as of September 20, 2022 between the Company and the Trustee (the “Eleventh Supplemental Indenture”) relating to the 2027 Notes, the twelfth supplemental indenture dated as of September 20, 2022 between the Company and the Trustee (the “Twelfth Supplemental Indenture”) relating to the 2032 Notes and the thirteenth supplemental indenture dated as of September 20, 2022 between the Company and the Trustee (the “Thirteenth Supplemental Indenture,” and together with the Tenth Supplemental Indenture, the Eleventh Supplemental Indenture and the Twelfth Supplemental Indenture, the “Supplemental Indentures”) relating to the 2052 Notes.
A copy of each of the Tenth Supplemental Indenture, the Eleventh Supplemental Indenture, the Twelfth Supplemental Indenture and the Thirteenth Supplemental Indenture is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1, Exhibit 4.3, Exhibit 4.5 and Exhibit 4.7, respectively, and is incorporated herein by reference. The descriptions of the Supplemental Indentures and the Notes in this report are summaries only and are qualified in their entirety by the terms of the Supplemental Indentures and the form of Notes attached hereto.

The Supplemental Indentures also contain certain customary covenants, including limitations on the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries, with exceptions, to incur debt secured by a pledge of or a lien on the voting stock of their significant subsidiaries. The Supplemental Indentures also provide for events of default which, if any of them occurs, would permit or require the principal of and accrued interest on the Notes to become or to be declared due and payable, as applicable.
