On March 12, 2012, Allison Transmission Holdings, Inc. filed Amendment No. 8 to its Registration Statement on Form S-1 to update and supplement certain disclosures that had been provided in its preliminary prospectus dated February 29, 2012 (referred to herein as the “Initial Preliminary Prospectus”). This free writing prospectus summarizes certain of the supplements to the Initial Preliminary Prospectus that appear in the most recent preliminary prospectus included in Amendment No. 8 to the Registration Statement (the “Preliminary Prospectus”).

The photographs contained on the inside cover of the Preliminary Prospectus have been supplemented to note that “Each of the vehicles pictured above contains an Allison transmission. However, the Company does not manufacture the vehicles themselves.”

 

   

The Preliminary Prospectus has been updated to reflect that on March 9, 2012, Allison Transmission, Inc. entered into an amendment with certain of its terms loan lenders under its Senior Secured Credit Facility to extend the maturity from August 7, 2014 to August 7, 2017 of approximately $801.0 million in principal amount of the term loans with an increase in the applicable margin over the London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, for such extended term loans from 2.50% to 3.50%.
