repurchase.</P>

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On November
8
,
2012, Service Corporation International ("SCI") issued a press release that it had completed the public offering of
$200,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its
4.5
% Senior Notes due 2020 (the "Notes").
In connection with the offering, SCI entered into an Underwriting Agreement with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as representative
of the underwriters named therein, dated November
5, 2012
(the "Underwriting Agreement").
SCI registered the sale of the
Notes with the SEC pursuant to an automatic shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-184087) filed on
September 25, 2012 (the "Registration Statement"). SCI will use the net proceeds from the offering, along with
a borrowing of approximately $9.6 million under its second amended and restated credit facility, to redeem all of its outstanding
7
3
/
8
% Senior Notes due 2014.
The terms of the Notes are governed by the
Indenture dated as of February 1, 1993 (the "Original Indenture"), between SCI and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust
Company, N.A., as successor trustee to The Bank of New York (the "Trustee"), as supplemented by the Tenth Supplemental
Indenture, dated as of November 8
, 2012
(the "Tenth Supplemental Indenture"; the
Original Indenture, as amended and supplemented by the Tenth Supplemental Indenture, the "Indenture").
The Notes will mature on November
15, 2020
, and interest is payable on the Notes on each
May 15
and
November
15
, commencing on
May 15
, 2013. The record date is
May 1
and
November 1
. SCI may redeem some or all of the Notes at any time prior to
November
15, 2015 at a redemption price equal to 100% principal amount plus a
"make-whole" premium, plus accrued and
unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. On or after
November 15, 2015, SCI may redeem the
notes at its option, at any time, in
whole or in part, at the redemption price specified in the Tenth Supplemental Indenture.
If SCI experiences a change of control, as described in the Indenture, each holder of the Notes will have the right to require
SCI to repurchase the Notes at 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of such
repurchase.
The Notes will be SCI's general unsecured
obligations and will rank equal in right of payment with all of SCI's other unsubordinated indebtedness and senior in right
of payment to any of SCI's future subordinated indebtedness. The Notes will be effectively subordinated to all of SCI's
existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the collateral securing such indebtedness and to all indebtedness and
other obligations of SCI's subsidiaries, whether secured or not secured, including subsidiary guarantees of obligations under
SCI's amended and restated senior credit facility.
Under the Indenture, SCI has agreed
to certain restrictions on its ability to create or incur liens and to enter into certain sale/leaseback transactions. These covenants
are subject to important exceptions and qualifications.
The Indenture contains customary
events of default. If an event of default under the Indenture occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the holders of at least
25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may declare the unpaid principal of, the optional redemption premium, if any,
and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes to be due and payable.

the Original Indenture and the Tenth Supplemental Indenture are described in the prospectus supplement, dated November
