EXPLANATORY NOTE TO
POST-EFFECTIVE AMENDMENT NO. 1

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 (the “Post-Effective Amendment”) to Form S-8 Registration Statement No. 333-119070 (the “Registration Statement”), which registered an aggregate amount of 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock, without par value (“Common Stock”), of H&R Block, Inc. (the “Company”), is being filed in order to de-register certain securities remaining under such Registration Statement.

Under the Company’s Registration Statement, 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock were registered under the H&R Block, Inc. 1999 Stock Option Plan for Seasonal Employees (the “Plan”). The shares of Common Stock registered under the Registration Statement were increased from 3,000,000 to 6,000,000 upon a 2-for-1 stock split effected on August 22, 2005.

The Plan terminated effective December 31, 2009 and all options were required to be exercised by December 31, 2011. This Post-Effective Amendment is being filed to deregister all of the previously registered shares of Common Stock of the Company reserved for issuance under the Plan that have not been sold or otherwise issued under the Registration Statements or subject to outstanding option awards as of the filing of this Post-Effective Amendment.
