Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Sections 12(g) and 12(h)

September 13, 2011

Response of the Office of Chief Counsel
Division of Corporation Finance

Re:

Twitter, Inc.
Incoming letter dated August 23, 2011

Based on the facts presented, the Division will not object if Twitter does not comply with the registration requirements of Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 with respect to restricted stock units granted and to be granted pursuant to Twitter’s 2007 Equity Incentive Plan in the manner and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in your letter. This position will remain in effect until the earlier of (1) the date that Twitter otherwise becomes subject to Exchange Act registration or reporting requirements with respect to any other class of its securities, or (2) the date of a Change of Control (as defined in your letter).

This position is based on the representations made to the Division in your letter. Any different facts or conditions might require the Division to reach a different conclusion. Further, this response expresses the Division’s position on enforcement action only and does not express any legal conclusion on the question presented.

Sincerely,

Kim McManus
Special Counsel
