Obligations under the Notes are guaranteed by Cedar Fair’s wholly-owned subsidiaries (other than the Co-Issuers).

Cedar Fair used the net proceeds from the offering of the Notes to redeem all of its 9.125% senior unsecured notes due 2018 (the “2018 Senior Notes”), exercise its right to satisfy and discharge the indenture governing the 2018 Senior Notes and for general corporate purposes.

The Notes were offered only to qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to certain non-U.S. persons in transactions outside the United States under Regulation S of the Securities Act.

The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act, and, the Notes may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws.
