About EPR Properties
We are a leading specialty real estate investment trust, or "REIT," with an investment portfolio that includes primarily entertainment,
recreation and education properties. The underwriting of our investments is centered on key industry and property cash flow criteria. Our
investments are also guided by a focus on inflection opportunities that are associated with or support enduring uses, excellent executions,
attractive economics and an advantageous market position. Our investments are generally structured as long-term, triple-net leases that
require the tenants to pay substantially all expenses associated with the operation and maintenance of the property, or as long-term mortgages
with economics similar to our triple-net lease structure. We are a self-administered REIT. As of December 31, 2017, our total assets were

424B5
Certain Covenants
The indenture governing the notes contains certain covenants that, among other things, restrict our
ability and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to:
· ?incur debt; and

S-7
· ?merge, consolidate or transfer all or substantially all of our assets.
We and our restricted subsidiaries will also be required to maintain total unencumbered assets of at least
150% of our unsecured debt.
These covenants are subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications. See "Description of
Notes--Certain Covenants."
No Public Market
The notes are a new issue of securities with no established trading market. We do not intend to apply for
listing of the notes on any securities exchange or for quotation of the notes on any automated dealer
quotation system. The underwriters have advised us that they intend to make a market in the notes, but
they are not obligated to do so and may discontinue any market-making at any time without notice.
Accordingly, there can be no assurance as to the development or liquidity of any market for the notes.
See "Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest)."
Book-Entry Form
We will issue the notes in the form of one or more fully registered global notes registered in the name of
the nominee of The Depository Trust Company, or DTC. Beneficial interests in the notes will be
represented through book-entry accounts of financial institutions acting on behalf of beneficial owners as
direct and indirect participants in DTC. Clearstream Banking, S.A., or Clearstream, and Euroclear Bank,
SA/NV, or Euroclear, will hold interests on behalf of their participants through their respective U.S.
depositaries, which in turn will hold such interests in accounts as participants of DTC. Except in the
limited circumstances described in this prospectus supplement, owners of beneficial interests in the notes
will not be entitled to have notes registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive notes
in definitive form and will not be considered holders of notes under the indenture. The notes will be
issued only in denominations of $2,000 and multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. See "Description of
Notes--Book Entry Delivery and Settlement."
Additional Issuances
We may, without the consent of or notice to holders of the notes, issue additional notes from time to time
in the future, provided that such additional notes must be treated as part of the same issue for U.S.
federal income tax purposes as the notes offered hereby.
Use of Proceeds
The net proceeds to us from the sale of the notes offered hereby are expected to be approximately $391.8
million, after deducting the underwriting discount and our estimated offering expenses. We intend to use
the net proceeds from this offering to reduce the outstanding principal balance of our unsecured
revolving credit facility. Such application of net proceeds will increase the amounts available under our
unsecured revolving credit facility, which we intend to use for general business purposes, including
funding our ongoing pipeline of acquisition and build-to-suit projects. Pending application of any portion
of the net proceeds from this offering to the uses described above, we may invest such proceeds in
interest-bearing accounts and short-term interest-bearing securities which are consistent with our
qualification as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). See "Use of
Proceeds."
Conflicts of Interest
Certain of the underwriters or their affiliates act as lenders and/or agents under our unsecured revolving
credit facility and, accordingly, may receive an amount in
