PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
(To Prospectus dated May 7, 2012)

Cheniere Energy, Inc.
$625,000,000
4.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2045

We are offering $625,000,000 aggregate principal amount at maturity of our 4.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2045, or the notes. The notes bear interest at a rate
of 4.25% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on September 15, 2015. The notes will mature on March 15,
2045.
Holders may convert their notes into shares of our common stock, at their option, prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding
December 15, 2044 only under the following circumstances: (1) during any fiscal quarter commencing after June 30, 2015, if the daily VWAP of our common stock, for at
least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) in the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter
is greater than or equal to 130% of the applicable conversion price of the notes in effect on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five consecutive business-day
period after any five consecutive trading-day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading day of such period was less than
98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and the applicable conversion rate on each such trading day; (3) upon our election to terminate
conversion rights for such notes; (4) if we call the notes for redemption; or (5) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. On or after December 15, 2044 until the
close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert their notes into shares of our common stock at any
time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. Upon conversion, we will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash
and shares of our common stock, at our election, as described in this prospectus supplement.
http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/3570/000119312515079028/d882975d424b5.htm[3/6/2015 11:34:35 AM]

424B5
The conversion rate will initially equal 7.2265 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount at maturity of the notes (equivalent to an initial conversion
price of approximately $138.38 per share of common stock), subject to adjustment as described in this prospectus supplement. Following certain corporate transactions
that occur on or prior to March 15, 2020 or the occurrence of a conversion termination date on or prior to March 15, 2020, we will, in certain circumstances, increase the
conversion rate for a holder that converts its notes in connection with such corporate transaction or termination of conversion rights.
We have the right, at our option, at any time after March 15, 2020, to redeem the notes at a redemption price payable in cash equal to the accreted amount of the
notes to be redeemed (as set forth under the caption "Description of the Notes -- Optional Redemption" in this prospectus supplement), plus accrued and unpaid interest,
if any, to, but excluding, such redemption date.
The holders have the right, at their option, to require us to purchase the notes following a fundamental change (as defined under the caption "Description of the Notes
-- Purchase Rights of Holders -- Fundamental Change Permits Holders to Require Us to Purchase Notes" in this prospectus supplement) at a price equal to 100% of the
accreted amount of the notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the fundamental change purchase date.
We may elect during a 30 consecutive trading day period to terminate the right of holders to convert all or part of their notes if the daily VWAP of our common
stock is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading days during such 30 consecutive trading day period. If we elect to terminate the
conversion rights of all or part of the notes on or prior to March 15, 2020, the conversion rate for any notes converted in connection with such termination of conversion
rights will be increased as set forth under "Description of the Notes -- Adjustment to Conversion Rate Upon Conversion in Connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental
Change or Termination of Conversion Rights."
There is no public market for the notes, and we do not intend to apply to list the notes on any securities exchange or for inclusion of the notes on any automated
dealer quotation system. Our common stock is listed on the NYSE MKT under the symbol "LNG." The last reported sale price of our common stock on the NYSE MKT
on March 2, 2015 was $80.11 per share.
We have retained Lazard Frères & Co. LLC as the placement agent for this offering. The placement agent is not purchasing or selling any of the notes offered hereby
and it has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to arrange for the sale of the notes.

Investing in our notes involves risks, including those described under "Risk Factors" beginning on page S-7 of
this prospectus supplement.

maturity of the notes (and not the accreted amount of the notes on any particular date) and when we refer to the conversion price per $1,000
principal amount of notes, we are referring to $1,000 principal amount of the notes at maturity (and not the accreted amount of the notes on

Ranking
The notes will be our senior unsecured obligations and will rank:

· senior in right of payment to any of our future indebtedness that is expressly

subordinated in right of payment to the notes;

· equal in right of payment to our existing and future unsecured indebtedness that is

not so subordinated; and

· effectively subordinated in right of payment to any of our existing and future

secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such
indebtedness.

In addition, the notes will be structurally subordinated to all existing and future
indebtedness (including trade payables) of our subsidiaries, as well as to any of our

existing or future indebtedness that may be guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries (to the
extent of any such guarantee).

S-1
Table of Contents
As of December 31, 2014, we had no secured indebtedness outstanding and our
subsidiaries had $9,243 million of outstanding indebtedness and other liabilities (before
discounts and premiums); this amount does not take into account $2.0 billion aggregate
principal amount of senior secured notes issued by Sabine Pass Liquefaction, LLC on

March 3, 2015. As of December 31, 2014, our total consolidated indebtedness was
$9,990 million (before discounts and premiums). The indenture does not limit the
amount of debt that may be issued by us or our subsidiaries under the indenture or
otherwise.

Use of Proceeds
We estimate that the net proceeds from this offering, after deducting estimated fees and
estimated offering expenses payable by us, will be approximately $495.7 million. We
intend to use the net proceeds for general corporate purposes.

The delivery of notes with respect to each investor is not conditioned upon the purchase
of notes by any other investors. If one or more investors fail to fund the purchase price

of their notes, we intend to proceed with delivery of the aggregate principal amount of
notes for which the purchase price has been received.

Conversion Rights
Holders may convert their notes at their option prior to the close of business on the
business day immediately preceding December 15, 2044, but only under the following
circumstances:

· during any fiscal quarter commencing after June 30, 2015 (and only during such
fiscal quarter), if the daily VWAP (as defined herein) of our common stock for at
least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the period of 30

consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately
preceding fiscal quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the applicable
conversion price on each applicable trading day;

· during the five consecutive business-day period after any five consecutive trading-
day period (the "measurement period") in which the trading price (as defined
herein) per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading day of such

measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale
price of our common stock and the applicable conversion rate on each such trading
http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/3570/000119312515079028/d882975d424b5.htm[3/6/2015 11:34:35 AM]

day;

· if we have elected to terminate the conversion rights for such notes as described

under "Description of the Notes -- Conversion Rights -- Termination of
Conversion Rights";

· if those notes have been called for redemption as described under "Description of

the Notes -- Conversion Rights -- Conversion Upon Notice of Redemption"; or

S-2
Table of Contents
· upon the occurrence of specified corporate events described under "Description of

the Notes -- Conversion Rights -- Conversion Upon Specified Corporate Events."

On or after December 15, 2044 until the close of business on the second scheduled

trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert their notes at
any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances.

The conversion rate will initially equal 7.2265 shares of common stock per $1,000
principal amount of notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately

$138.38 per share of common stock), subject to adjustment as described in this
prospectus supplement.

In addition, following the occurrence of a make-whole fundamental change (as defined
herein) on or prior to March 15, 2020 or the occurrence of a conversion termination date
on or prior to March 15, 2020, we will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion
rate for a holder that converts its notes in connection with such make-whole
fundamental change or such termination of conversion rights. See "Description of the
Notes -- Adjustment to Conversion Rate Upon Conversion in Connection with a Make-

Whole Fundamental Change or Termination of Conversion Rights." You will not receive
any additional cash payment representing accrued and unpaid interest, if any, upon
conversion of a note, except in limited circumstances. Instead, interest will be deemed to
be paid by the cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of
our common stock paid or delivered, as the case may be, to you upon conversion of a
note. See "Description of the Notes -- Conversion Rights -- General."

Settlement Upon Conversion
We may elect to deliver to holders in full satisfaction of our conversion obligation:

· solely shares of our common stock, together with cash in lieu of fractional shares,

which we refer to as a "physical settlement";

· solely cash without any delivery of shares of our common stock, which we refer to

as a "cash settlement"; or

· a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, together with cash in lieu

of fractional shares, which we refer to as a "combination settlement."

The amount of cash, if we elect cash settlement, or the amount of cash and the number
of shares of our common stock, if any, if we elect a combination settlement, will be
based on a daily conversion value (as defined herein) for each of the 25 consecutive

trading days (or, in the event of a conversion of notes in connection with a redemption
of such notes, for each of the 15 consecutive trading days) during the cash settlement
averaging period (as defined herein).

S-3
Table of Contents
We will from time to time make an election with respect to the settlement method,
which election shall be effective until we provide notice of an election of a different
settlement method. We initially elect combination settlement and a specified dollar
amount (as defined herein) of $1,000. If we choose to elect a different settlement method
in the future, we will provide to all holders of the notes, the trustee and the conversion
agent a notice of the newly chosen settlement method and the effective date of such
newly chosen method. We may not change a settlement method after the 30th scheduled

trading day preceding the maturity date or, with respect to notes converted in
connection with a redemption or a termination of conversion rights, after we have
provided a notice of redemption of the notes or conversion rights termination notice, as
applicable. Prior to the 30th scheduled trading day preceding the maturity date of the
notes, we will have the right to irrevocably elect combination settlement with a specified
dollar amount of $1,000. Following such irrevocable election, we will not have the right
to change the settlement method. See "Description of the Notes -- Conversion Rights --
Settlement Upon Conversion."

Sinking Fund
None.

Termination of Conversion Rights
We may elect during a 30 consecutive trading day period to terminate the right of
holders to convert all or part of their notes if the daily VWAP of our Common Stock is
greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading days during
such 30 consecutive trading day period. If we elect to terminate the conversion rights of
all or part of the notes on or prior to March 15, 2020, the conversion rate for any notes
converted in connection with such termination of conversion rights will be increased as
set forth under "Description of the Notes -- Adjustment to Conversion Rate Upon
Conversion in Connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change or Termination of
Conversion Rights."

Optional Redemption
After March 15, 2020, we may, at our option, redeem all or part of the notes at a
redemption price equal to the accreted amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued
but unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the redemption date.

Fundamental Change
If we undergo a "fundamental change" (as defined under "Description of the Notes --
Purchase Rights of Holders -- Fundamental Change Permits Holders to Require Us to
Purchase Notes"), you may require us to purchase for cash all or part of your notes. The
fundamental change purchase price will equal 100% of the accreted amount of the notes
to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the
fundamental change purchase date.

Events of Default
Except as described under "Description of the Notes -- Events of Default," if an event
of default with respect to the notes occurs, holders may, upon satisfaction of certain
conditions, accelerate the accreted principal amount of the notes plus accrued and unpaid

bankruptcy or insolvency events of default involving us.

Book-Entry Form
The notes will be issued in book-entry form and will be represented by one or more
permanent global certificates deposited with, or on behalf of, The Depository Trust
Company ("DTC") and registered in the name of a nominee of DTC. Beneficial interests
in any of the notes will be shown on, and transfers will be effected only through, records
maintained by DTC or its nominee and any such interest may not be exchanged for
certificated securities, except in limited circumstances.

No Prior Market
The notes are a new issue of securities and there is no existing market for the notes, and
we do not intend to list the notes on any national securities exchange. Our common
stock is listed on NYSE MKT, LLC ("NYSE MKT") under the symbol "LNG." If no
active trading market for the notes develops, you may not be able to resell your notes at
their fair market value or at all. Future trading prices of the notes will depend on many
factors, including the market price of our common stock, prevailing interest rates, our
operating results and the market for similar securities.

Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences
For a discussion of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences relating to the
purchase, ownership and disposition of the notes and the shares of our common stock
into which the notes are convertible, see "Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax
Consequences."

Original Issue Discount
The notes may be issued with original issue discount ("OID") for U.S. federal income
tax purposes. If the notes are issued with OID, U.S. holders, whether on the cash or
accrual method of tax accounting, will be required to include any amounts representing
OID in gross income (as ordinary income) on a constant yield to maturity basis for U.S.
federal income tax purposes in advance of the receipt of cash payments to which such
income is attributable. For further discussion, see "Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax
Consequences."
