DEREGISTRATION OF SHARES
This post-effective amendment relates to Check Point Software Technologies Ltd.‘s (the “Registrant”) Registration Statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-9136) (the “Registration Statement”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 15, 1998, relating to 21,000,000 Ordinary Shares (as adjusted for stock splits), nominal value 0.01 New Israeli Shekels per share (the “Shares”), of the Registrant reserved for issuance under the Registrant’s (i) 1996 Israel Stock Option Plan, (ii)1996 United States Stock Option Plan, and (iii) Employee Stock Purchase Plan (collectively, the “Check Point Plans”), and 604,254 Shares (as adjusted for stock splits) reserved for issuance under the MetaInfo, Inc. Incentive Stock Option Plan (the “MetaInfo Plan”). Of the 604,254 Shares registered in connection with the MetaInfo Plan, 59,625 Shares have not been issued and are not subject to future issuance under the MetaInfo Plan. This post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement (the “Post-Effective Amendment”) is hereby filed to deregister an aggregate of 59,625 Shares previously registered that have not been issued and will not in the future be issued under the MetaInfo Plan.
Prior to the filing of this Post-Effective Amendment, the Board of Directors and the shareholders of the Registrant approved and adopted the 2005 Israel Equity Incentive Plan and the 2005 United States Equity Incentive Plan (the “2005 Plans”). Pursuant to Instruction E of Form S-8 and the telephonic interpretation of the SEC in the Division of Corporate Finance’s Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations, dated July 1997 (see G. Securities Act Forms, number 89), the 59,625 Shares deregistered by this Post-Effective Amendment, and the filing fee paid in connection with the initial registration of such Shares, will be carried forward to the registration statement on Form S-8 filed on or about the date hereof in connection with the registration of Shares that may be issued under the 2005 Plans. However, Shares previously registered under the Registration Statement that are not being deregistered hereby remain subject to outstanding options granted under the Registrant’s 1996 United States Stock Option Plan and 1996 Israel Stock Option Plan, and also remain available for purchase under the Registrant’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Accordingly, the Registration Statement will remain in effect to cover the potential exercise of such outstanding options or purchase of Shares.
