  Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the &#147;Calculation of Filing Fee Tables&#148; or &#147;Calculation of Registration

  the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time

  1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
  indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a
  director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant
  will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will
  be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. </P>

  Item 4. Description of Securities.
  Common Stock
  The Common Stock of the Company is
  registered under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act and, accordingly, no description is provided hereunder.
  Deferred Compensation Obligations
  The following description of the Obligations registered hereunder is qualified by reference to the Program. A copy of the Program is filed as
  Exhibit
   4.3
  to this Registration Statement. Stock Units provided for in the Program are granted under the Flexible Stock Plan and will be subject to the terms of that plan.
  The Program is available to (i) all directors and officers of the Company subject to the requirements of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act
  of 1934, and (ii) such other employees of the Company selected by the Human Resources and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the "
  Committee
  "). The Obligations will be unsecured general obligations of the Company
  to pay the deferred compensation to participating directors, officers and employees in the future in accordance with the terms of the Program. The Obligations will rank equally with other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Company
  outstanding from time to time.
  Each participant may elect to defer all or a portion of his or her compensation to be earned and vested in the next
  calendar year in accordance with the terms of the Program. Participants may elect to defer compensation using any combination of two alternatives, discussed in more detail below: Stock Units or L&P Cash Deferral. Deferred compensation vests at
  the time the participant would have been entitled to receive the compensation but for the election to defer.
  Unless authorized by the Committee, the
  Company's obligation, as respects deferred compensation, may not be transferred, assigned or pledged during a participant's lifetime. The Company may amend or terminate the Program at any time. However, no such amendment or termination
  will deprive any participant of the right to receive benefits previously vested under the Program.
  Stock Options
  Effective October 30, 2024, Stock Options are no longer offered as an investment alternative under the Program. Stock Options previously granted under the
  Program shall be governed by the terms and conditions applicable to such Stock Option at the time of grant.
  Although the Company intends to settle the
  exercise of a previously granted Stock Option in shares of Common Stock, the Company reserves the right, subject to the Committee's approval, to settle the Stock Option exercise in cash in lieu of shares of Common Stock. If settled in cash, the
  amount of the payment will be equal to the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Company's Flexible Stock Plan) of the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be issued upon Stock Option exercise. Fair Market Value shall be
  determined at the date of exercise, in the same manner as if the exercise would have been settled in shares of Common Stock.
  A participant will have no
  rights as a shareholder with respect to the shares covered by his or her previously granted Stock Option until stock has been issued for the shares. No adjustment will be made for dividends or other rights for which the record date is before the
  issuance date.
  Stock Units
  Participants may defer
  compensation into Stock Units equivalent to shares of Company Common Stock. Stock Units are not transferable and do not carry voting rights.
  3
  Stock Units will be credited to participant accounts on a
  bi-weekly
  basis or as the compensation otherwise would have been paid. If dividends are paid on the Company's Common Stock, the Company will make a dividend contribution equal to the per share cash dividend on the number of Stock Units credited to the
  participant's account on the dividend record date. All Stock Units will be acquired at a price equal to 80% of the fair market value of a share of the Company's Common Stock on the date of the
  bi-weekly
  deferral or dividend payment.
  Prior to distribution, Stock Units will be converted to the appropriate
  number of whole shares of Company Common Stock on a
  one-to-one
  basis. The Company will withhold from the shares distributed any amount required to pay applicable taxes.
  Although the Company intends to settle participants' accounts in stock, notwithstanding any other provision of the Program, the Company reserves the right, subject to the Committee's approval, to pay Stock Units in cash in lieu of shares
  of Common Stock. If settled in cash, the amount of the distribution will be equal to the fair market value (as defined in the Company's Flexible Stock Plan) of the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be issued. Participants
  may elect to receive payment of the Stock Units all at once or in annual installments for up to 10 years. The initial payout must occur at least two years and not more than ten years after the deferral election.
  L&P Cash Deferral
  Compensation deferred under the
  L&P Cash Deferral component of the Program will accrue interest from the date the deferred compensation would have been paid at a rate established by the Company's chief financial officer, unless the Committee determines otherwise.
  Participants may elect to receive payment of the L&P Cash Deferral in a lump sum or annual installments for up to 10 years. The initial payout must occur
  at least two years and not more than ten years after the deferral election.
  Miscellaneous
  Participants may make an election to extend the payout period or change the form of distribution for Stock Units and L&P Cash Deferrals, not to exceed any
  maximum payout period established by the Committee. Unless otherwise permitted under applicable tax rules, the election change must be made not less than 12 months before the first scheduled payment date designated in the original election and must
  extend the first distribution payment by at least five years.
  In the event of an unforeseeable emergency, as defined in the Program, the Committee may,
  in its sole discretion and as permitted under applicable law, authorize early payment of all or a portion of a vested L&P Cash Deferral or Stock Unit account, or cancel the participant's deferral election.
  In the event of a stock dividend, stock split, merger, consolidation or other recapitalization of the Company affecting the number of outstanding shares of
  Company Common Stock, the number of shares and exercise price subject to any outstanding Stock Options, and the number of Stock Units credited to a Participant's account will be appropriately adjusted.
  Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
  Jennifer J. Davis, Executive Vice President – General Counsel of the Company, has rendered an opinion as to the legality of the Company's Deferred
  Compensation Obligations, including L&P Cash Deferrals, Stock Units and Common Stock being registered hereby. Ms. Davis is paid a salary and a bonus, and she is a participant in various employee benefit plans offered by the Company and owns
  and has equity awards relating to shares of the Company's Common Stock.
  Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
  The Company is a Missouri corporation. Sections 351.355(1) and (2) of The General and Business Corporation Law of the State of Missouri ("GBCL")
  provide that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer,
  employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
  4
  trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with
  such action, suit or proceeding if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable
  cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful, except that, in the case of an action or suit by or in the right of the corporation, no person shall be indemnified as to any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged
  to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his or her duty to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought determines upon application that such person is fairly and
  reasonably entitled to indemnity for proper expenses.
  Section 351.355(3) of the GBCL provides that, except as otherwise provided in the
  corporation's articles of incorporation or the bylaws, to the extent a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation has been successful in the defense of any such action, suit or proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, he
  or she shall be indemnified against expenses, including attorney's fees, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such action, suit or proceeding.
  Section 351.355(5) of the GBCL provides that expenses incurred in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or
  proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit, or proceeding as authorized by the board of directors in the specific case upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director, officer,
  employee or agent to repay such amount unless it shall ultimately be determined that he or she is entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in this section.
  Section 351.355(7) of the GBCL provides that a corporation may provide additional indemnification to any person indemnifiable under subsection
  (1) or (2), provided such additional indemnification is authorized by the corporation's articles of incorporation or an amendment thereto or by a shareholder-approved bylaw or agreement, provided further that no person shall thereby be
  indemnified against conduct which was finally adjudged to have been knowingly fraudulent, deliberately dishonest or willful misconduct.
  Section 351.355(8) of the GBCL provides that a corporation may purchase and maintain insurance or another arrangement on behalf of any person who is or
  was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any
  liability asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liability under the
  provisions of that section. The insurance or other arrangement, including a trust fund, self-insurance, letters of credit, guaranty or surety arrangement, may be procured within the corporation or with any insurer or other person deemed appropriate
  by the board of directors. That section also provides that in the absence of fraud the judgment of the board of directors as to the terms and conditions of the insurance or other arrangement and the identity of the insurer or other person
  participating in an arrangement shall be conclusive and the insurance or arrangement shall not be voidable and shall not subject the directors approving the insurance or arrangement to liability on any ground regardless of whether directors
  participating in the approval are beneficiaries of the insurance arrangement.
  The Company's restated articles of incorporation, as amended, and
  bylaws, as amended, generally provide that each person who was or is a director or officer of the corporation shall be indemnified by the corporation as a matter of right to the fullest extent permitted or authorized by applicable law and as
  otherwise provided in its restated articles of incorporation. For this purpose, "applicable law" generally means Section 351.355 of the GBCL, including any amendments since May 7, 1986, but only to the extent such amendment
  permits the corporation to provide broader indemnification rights, and any other statutory indemnification provision adopted after May 7, 1986. The Company's bylaws, as amended, also provide that each person who was or is an employee or
  agent of the corporation, or who was or is serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership or other enterprise may, at the discretion of the board of directors, be indemnified
  by the corporation to the same extent as provided in the bylaws for directors and officers. The Company's restated articles of incorporation also provide that the indemnification and other rights provided by the restated articles of
  incorporation will not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which a director or officer may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person's official
  capacity and as to action in any other capacity while holding the office of director or officer, and the corporation is specifically authorized to provide such indemnification and other rights by any bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholders or
  disinterested directors or otherwise. The Company has a similar provision in its bylaws.
  5
  The Company's restated articles of incorporation provide that expenses incurred by any person who was
  or is a director or officer in defending generally any proceeding (including those by or in the right of the Company) shall be promptly advanced by the Company when so requested at any time, but only if the requesting person delivers to the Company
  an undertaking to repay to the Company all amounts so advanced if it should ultimately be determined that the requesting person is not entitled to be indemnified under the Company's restated articles of incorporation, bylaws, state law or
  otherwise. The Company has a similar provision in its bylaws.
  In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements, approved by its
  shareholders, with its directors and executive officers. Pursuant to those agreements, the Company has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless each indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted or authorized by applicable law. For this purpose,
  "applicable law" generally means Section 351.355 of the GBCL, including any amendments since May 7, 1986, but only to the extent such amendment permits the corporation to provide broader indemnification rights, and any other
  statutory indemnification provision adopted after May 7, 1986. In addition, the Company has agreed to further indemnify and hold harmless each such party who was or is a party or is threatened to be made party to any proceeding, including any
  proceeding by or in the right of the Company, by reason of the fact that the indemnitee is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or is or was serving at the request or on the behalf of the Company as a director, officer,
  employee or agent of another enterprise or by reason of anything done or not done by him or her in any such capacities. However, under these agreements, the Company will not provide indemnification: (i) for amounts indemnified by the Company
  outside of the agreement or paid pursuant to insurance; (ii) in respect of remuneration paid to indemnitee if determined finally that such remuneration was in violation of law; (iii) on account of any suit for any accounting of profits
  pursuant to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act or similar provisions of any federal, state or local law; (iv) on account of indemnitee's conduct which is finally adjudged to have been knowingly fraudulent, deliberately dishonest or
  willful misconduct; or (v) if a final adjudication shall determine that such indemnification is not lawful.
  The Company's restated articles of
  incorporation provide that the corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who was or is a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or was or is serving at the request of the corporation as a director,
  officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership or other enterprise against any liability asserted against or incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the corporation
  would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability. The Company has a similar provision in its bylaws. The Company insures its directors and officers against certain liabilities and has insurance against certain payments which it
  may be obliged to make to such persons under the indemnification provisions of its restated articles of incorporation. This insurance may provide broader coverage for such individuals than may be required by the provisions of the restated articles
  of incorporation or the bylaws.
  The foregoing represents a summary of the general effect of the indemnification provisions of the GBCL, the restated
  articles of incorporation, as amended, the bylaws, as amended, and such agreements and insurance. Additional information regarding indemnification of directors and officers can be found in Section 351.355 of the GBCL, the restated articles of
  incorporation, as amended, the bylaws, as amended, and any pertinent agreements.

  Item 9. Undertakings.
  (a) The undersigned
  registrant hereby undertakes:
  (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration
  Statement:
  (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
  (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective
  amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the
  total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to
  Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Filing Fee Tables" or "Calculation of Registration
  Fee" table, as applicable, in the effective Registration Statement;
  (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
  distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;
  provided
  ,
  however
  , that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the Registration Statement is on Form
  S-8,
  and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to
  Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.
  7
  (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such
  post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
  (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
  offering.
  (b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing
  of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of
  the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time
  shall be deemed to be the initial
  bona fide
  offering thereof.
  (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
  1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
  indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a
  director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant
  will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will
  be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
