Check the appropriate box below if the Form 8-K filing is intended to simultaneously satisfy the filing obligation of the registrant under any of the following provisions (see General Instruction A.2. below):

On September 11, 2014, Owens & Minor, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) among the Company, Owens & Minor Distribution, Inc. (“O&M Distribution”), Owens & Minor Medical, Inc. (“O&M Medical” and collectively with O&M Distribution, the “Guarantors”) and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Wells Fargo Securities LLC, as representatives of the other several underwriters named in Schedule 1 thereto (the “Underwriters”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and the Underwriters agreed to purchase, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Underwriting Agreement (the “Notes Offering”), $275 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 3.875% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “2021 Notes”) and $275 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 4.375% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes” and collectively with the 2021 Notes, the “Senior Notes”). The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements of the Company and the Guarantors, conditions to closing, indemnification rights and obligations of the parties and termination provisions.

The Senior Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of September 16, 2014 (the “Base Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of September 16, 2014 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee.

The 2021 Notes will bear interest at a rate of 3.875% per annum and the 2024 Notes will bear interest at a rate of 4.375% per annum. The 2021 Notes will mature on September 15, 2021 and the 2024 Notes will mature on December 15, 2024. Interest will accrue on the Senior Notes from September 16, 2014. Interest on the 2021 Notes is payable on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing on March 15, 2015. Interest on the 2024 Notes is payable on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing on December 15, 2014.

The Senior Notes will be the Company’s general senior unsecured obligations and will be equal in right of payment with any of the Company’s existing and future senior indebtedness and senior in right of payment to any of the Company’s subordinated indebtedness. The Senior Notes will be guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company’s subsidiaries that incur or guarantee debt under the Company’s revolving credit facility. Initially, the Senior Notes will be guaranteed by Owens & Minor Distribution and Owens & Minor Medical. The Senior Notes will be effectively junior to the indebtedness and other liabilities of the Company’s non-guarantor subsidiaries and will be effectively junior in right of payment to any of the Company’s future secured debt to the extent of the assets securing such debt.

The Company may redeem the Senior Notes for cash in whole or in part, at any time prior to maturity, at redemption prices that include accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the date of redemption and a make-whole premium, as specified in the Indenture. However, no make whole premium will be paid for redemptions of the 2024 Notes on or after September 15, 2024.

In the event of the occurrence of both (1) a change of control of the Company and (2) a downgrade of a series of Senior Notes below an investment grade rating by each of Fitch Inc., Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. and Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services within a specified period, unless the Company has previously exercised its optional redemption right with respect to that series of Senior Notes in whole, the Company will be required to offer to repurchase the Senior Notes of that series from the holders at a price in cash equal to 101% of the then outstanding principal amount of such series of Senior Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the date of repurchase.

The Indenture contains covenants that limit the Company’s ability to, among other things, incur certain liens securing indebtedness, engage in certain sale and leaseback transactions, and enter into certain consolidations, mergers, conveyances and leases of substantially all of its assets. The Indenture also contains customary event of default provisions.

The Senior Notes were offered and sold pursuant to the Company’s automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-198635) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a prospectus, dated September 8, 2014, and a prospectus supplement, dated September 11, 2014, in connection with the public offering of the Senior Notes.

Certain of the Underwriters and their affiliates have, from time to time, performed, and may in the future perform, various financial advisory, corporate trust, commercial banking and investment banking services for the Company and its affiliates for which they received, or will receive, customary fees and expenses. In particular, affiliates of each of the Underwriters are lenders under the Company’s revolving credit facility. In addition, an affiliate of Wells Fargo Securities, LLC acts as administrative agent and an affiliate of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC acts as syndication agent under the Company’s revolving credit facility, and an affiliate of U.S. Bancorp Investments, Inc. is the trustee, paying agent and security registrar with respect to the Senior Notes.

The foregoing descriptions of the Underwriting Agreement, the Base Indenture, the First Supplemental Indenture and the Senior Notes are qualified in their entirety by reference to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Base Indenture, the First Supplemental Indenture and the forms of global securities representing the 2021 Notes and the 2024 Notes, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 1.1, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.
