EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

 

The purpose of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement No. 333-158096 (the “Post-Effective Amendment”) is to reflect the amendment and restatement of the Agilent Technologies, Inc. 2009 Stock Plan and its name change to the 2018 Stock Plan.  

 

On March 18, 2009, Agilent Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Agilent”), filed a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-158096) registering 25,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), for issuance in accordance with the terms of Agilent’s 2009 Stock Plan (the “2009 Plan Shares”), plus up to 38,000,000 additional shares of Common Stock of Agilent that, at the time, were subject to outstanding awards previously granted under Agilent’s 1999 Stock Plan, as amended, to the extent such awards were not exercised, or were forfeited, lapsed or expired or otherwise terminated without delivery of any Common Stock subject thereto after March 11, 2009, the effective date of the 2009 Plan, and that are eligible to be carried over to the 2009 Plan (the “Carry Over Shares” and together with the 2009 Plan Shares, the “Registered Shares”). The 2018 Stock Plan is the successor to and continuation of the 2009 Stock Plan which is the successor to and continuation of the 1999 Stock Plan.  Such registration statement is incorporated herein by reference.  

 

On November 15, 2017, Agilent’s Board of Directors approved, subject to stockholder approval at the March 21, 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the amendment and restatement of the 2009 Stock Plan as the 2018 Stock Plan.  On March 21, 2018 (the “Effective Date”), the stockholders approved the amendment and restatement of the 2009 Stock Plan as the 2018 Stock Plan.  

 

Agilent is filing this Post-Effective Amendment pursuant to SEC Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation 126.43 to amend Registration Statement No. 333-158096 to register the offer of the Registered Shares under the 2018 Stock Plan (as such shares would no longer be issuable under the 2009 Stock Plan). No new awards may be made under the 2009 Stock Plan from and after the Effective Date. No additional securities are being registered hereby.
