We have not, and the underwriters have not, authorized anyone to provide any information other than that contained or
incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and any free writing prospectus prepared by or on
behalf of us or to which we have referred you. We and the underwriters take no responsibility for, and can provide no assurance as to the
reliability of, any other information that others may give you. We are not, and the underwriters are not, making an offer of these
securities in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale of such securities is not permitted. You should assume that the information contained
in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein or therein is accurate
only as of their respective dates. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since those dates.
We expect to deliver the Notes against payment for the Notes on or about the date specified in the last paragraph of the cover page of
this prospectus supplement, which will be the fifth business day following the date of the pricing of the Notes ("T+5"). Under Rule 15c6-1
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle
in three business days, unless the parties to a trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade Notes on the
date of pricing or the next succeeding business day will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes initially will settle in T+5, to specify
alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.

SUMMARY
The following summary highlights information contained in or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the
accompanying prospectus. It may not contain all of the information that you should consider before investing in the Notes. You should
carefully read this entire prospectus supplement, as well as the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein
that are described under "Where You Can Find More Information."
Oracle Corporation
We are the world's largest provider of enterprise software and a leading provider of computer hardware products and services that are
engineered to work together in the cloud and in the data center. Our offerings include Oracle database and middleware software, application
software, cloud infrastructure, hardware systems--including computer server, storage, networking and point-of-sale products--and related
services. We develop and maintain our products and services to be enterprise-grade, reliable, secure and interoperable while offering
customers a choice in deployment models that best meet their information technology (IT) needs. Our customers can subscribe to use many
Oracle software and hardware products through our Oracle Cloud offerings, or purchase our software and hardware products and related
services to build their own internal clouds or on-premises IT environments.
Cloud computing IT environments, including those offered through our Oracle Cloud Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), Platform-as-a-
Service (PaaS) and Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) offerings, are designed to be attractive and cost-effective options for our customers as
we integrate the software and hardware on the customers' behalf in IT environments that we deploy, support and manage on the customers'
behalf. We are a leader in the core technologies of cloud computing, including database and middleware software as well as web-based
applications, virtualization, clustering, large-scale systems management and related infrastructure. Our products and services are the building
blocks of our own cloud services, our partners' cloud services and our customers' cloud IT environments. An important element of our
corporate strategy is to deliver reliable, secure and scalable products and services that are built upon industry standards and are engineered to
work both together or independently, regardless of the deployment model selected.
We believe that our investments in, and continued innovation with respect to, our software and cloud, hardware, and services businesses
are the foundation of our long-term strategic plans. During the nine months ended February 28, 2015 and 2014, we invested $4.1 billion and
$3.8 billion, respectively, in research and development. We have expanded our enterprise-grade cloud computing offerings through our
continued investments in research and development and through targeted acquisitions in order to broaden our Oracle Cloud offerings. For
example, our Oracle Cloud Software-as-a-Service offerings, including our sales, marketing, customer service, financials, project management,
human capital and talent management cloud solutions, among others, enable us to provide IT functionality that customers can use to manage
critical business functions in a rapidly deployable delivery model with lower upfront customer investment. Certain of our enterprise-grade
cloud computing offerings include infrastructure based upon our Oracle Engineered Systems, including our Oracle Exadata Database Machine,
Oracle Exalogic Elastic Cloud and Oracle SuperCluster products, among others. We designed our Oracle Engineered Systems to combine
certain of our hardware and software offerings to increase computing performance relative to our competitors' products, creating cost
efficiencies, time savings and operational cost advantages for our customers. Our Oracle Engineered Systems provide the core infrastructure
for our own on-premise IT data centers and those of our customers, and for cloud IT environments, including our own Oracle Cloud services,
our partners' cloud services and our customers' cloud environments. We also continue to demonstrate our commitment to customer choice
through ongoing enhancements to our Oracle E-Business Suite, Siebel, PeopleSoft and JD Edwards application software products and
services, among others.

424B2
We believe that an active acquisition program is another important element of our corporate strategy as it enhances the products and
services that we can offer to customers, expands our customer base, provides greater scale to accelerate innovation, grows our revenues and
earnings and increases stockholder value. In recent years, we have invested billions of dollars to acquire a number of companies, products,
services and technologies that add to, are complementary to, or have otherwise enhanced our existing offerings. We expect to continue to
acquire companies, products, services and technologies to further our corporate strategy.
We are organized into three businesses--software and cloud, hardware systems and services--which are further divided into certain
operating segments. Our software and cloud business is comprised of three operating segments: (1) new software licenses and cloud software
subscriptions, which includes our SaaS and PaaS offerings, (2) cloud IaaS and (3) software license updates and product support. Our hardware
systems business is comprised of two operating segments: (1) hardware systems products and (2) hardware systems support. Our services
business is comprised of the remainder of our operating segments and offers consulting services, enhanced support services and education
services. Our software and cloud, hardware systems and services represented 76%, 14% and 10% of our total revenues, respectively, during
the nine months ended February 28, 2015; and 75%, 15% and 10% of our total revenues, respectively, during the nine months ended February
28, 2014.
Oracle Corporation was incorporated in 2005 as a Delaware corporation and is the successor to operations originally begun in June 1977.

Our principal executive offices are located at 500 Oracle Parkway, Redwood City, California 94065, and our telephone number is
(650) 506-7000. We maintain a website at www.oracle.com where general information about us is available. We are not incorporating the
contents of, or the information accessible through, the website into this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus.

RISK FACTORS
In considering whether to purchase the Notes, you should carefully consider all the information we have included or incorporated by
reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. In particular, you should carefully consider the risk factors described
below, which are not exhaustive.
Risks Related to the Offering
Active trading markets for the Notes may not develop.
The Notes are new issues of securities with no established trading markets. We do not intend to apply for listing of the Notes on any
securities exchange. The underwriters for this offering have advised us that they intend to make a market in each series of the Notes, but they are
not obligated to do so and may discontinue market-making at any time without notice. In addition, the liquidity of any trading markets in the
Notes, and the market prices quoted for the Notes, may be adversely affected by changes in the overall markets for these Notes, prevailing interest
rates and changes in our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or prospects. Liquid trading markets in the Notes may not develop,
which could decrease the amounts you would otherwise receive upon a sale or disposition of the Notes.
The Notes are the unsecured obligations of Oracle Corporation and not obligations of its subsidiaries and will be effectively subordinated
to the claims of its subsidiaries' creditors. Structural subordination increases the risk that Oracle Corporation will be unable to meet its
obligations on the Notes when they mature.
The Notes are exclusively the obligations of Oracle Corporation and are not obligations of its subsidiaries. Oracle Corporation is a holding
company and substantially all of its operations are conducted through its subsidiaries. As a result, Oracle Corporation's cash flow and ability to
service its debt, including the Notes, depend upon the earnings of its subsidiaries and the distribution to it of earnings, loans or other payments by
its subsidiaries.
Oracle Corporation's subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities. Its subsidiaries will not guarantee the Notes and are under no
obligation to pay any amounts due on the Notes or to provide Oracle Corporation with funds for its payment obligations, whether by dividends,
distributions, loans or other payments. Payments to Oracle Corporation by its subsidiaries will also be contingent upon such subsidiaries' earnings
and business considerations and may be subject to legal and contractual restrictions. As of February 28, 2015, Oracle had approximately $50.3
billion of total liabilities on a consolidated basis, including $32.3 billion of senior notes outstanding. Of this amount, subsidiaries of Oracle
Corporation had approximately $17.6 billion of liabilities (including trade payables) to which the Notes will be effectively subordinated.
Oracle Corporation's right to receive any assets of any of its subsidiaries upon their liquidation or reorganization, and therefore the right of
the holders of the Notes to participate in those assets, will be effectively subordinated to the claims of that subsidiary's creditors, including senior
and subordinated debt holders and bank and trade creditors. In addition, even if Oracle Corporation were a creditor of any of its subsidiaries, its
rights as a creditor would be subordinate to any security interest in the assets of its subsidiaries and any indebtedness of its subsidiaries senior to
that held by Oracle Corporation.
In addition, the Notes will not be secured by any of the assets of Oracle Corporation or any assets of its subsidiaries. Accordingly, the Notes
will be subordinated to the extent Oracle Corporation or its subsidiaries have secured borrowings. There are no restrictions in the indenture
governing the Notes that restrict its subsidiaries from granting security interests or liens on any or all of their assets.
The negative covenants in the indenture governing the Notes may have a limited effect.
The indenture governing the Notes contains negative covenants. The limitation on liens and sale/leaseback covenants apply to Oracle
Corporation, but not to its subsidiaries. As a result, such subsidiaries will not be
