+### Inheriting from 'EventEmitter'
+
+Inheriting from `EventEmitter` is no different from inheriting from any other
+constructor function. For example:
+
+```js
+'use strict';
+const util = require('util');
+const EventEmitter = require('events').EventEmitter;
+
+function MyEventEmitter() {
+  // Initialize necessary properties from `EventEmitter` in this instance
+  EventEmitter.call(this);
+}
+
+// Inherit functions from `EventEmitter`'s prototype
+util.inherits(MyEventEmitter, EventEmitter);
+```
