(1)
The ResMed Inc. 2009 Incentive Award Plan, as amended (formerly known as the ResMed Inc. 2006 Incentive Award Plan, as amended and restated) (the "Plan"), currently authorizes the issuance of 43,733,937 shares
of our common stock, par value $0.004 (including the shares registered by this registration statement.) (the "Common Stock"). We have previously registered 35,475,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance under the Plan. This registration
statement is registering the additional 8,258,937 shares of Common Stock approved by our stockholders for issuance under the Plan. In accordance with Rule 416(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), this
registration statement will also cover any additional shares of common stock which become issuable under the Plan by reason of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or similar transaction.
(2)
Estimated solely for the purposes of calculating the registration fee under Rule 457(h) and (c) under the Securities Act, and is based on the average of the high and low sales price ($44.19) of the Common Stock, as
reported on the New York Stock Exchange on February 26, 2014, for the 8,258,937 additional shares of Common Stock issuable under the Plan.
Proposed issuances to take place as soon after the effective date of the Registration Statement as practicable.
PART I
INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE SECTION 10(a) PROSPECTUS
We are not filing with or including in this form S-8 the information called for in part I of form S-8 (by incorporation by reference or
otherwise) in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission").
PART II
INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Registration of Additional Securities
The ResMed Inc. 2009 Incentive Award Plan (formerly known as the Amended and Restated ResMed Inc. 2006 Incentive Award Plan, as amended) (the
"Plan") currently authorizes the issuance of 43,733,937 shares of our common stock, par value $0.004 (the "Common Stock") which includes the shares being registered by this registration statement). We have previously registered
35,475,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance under the Plan by (i) a registration statement on form S-8 filed with the Commission on January 31, 2007, registration no. 333-140351, covering 15,600,000 shares of Common Stock, (ii) a
registration statement on form S-8 filed with the Commission on December 11, 2008, registration no. 333-156065, covering 4,200,000 shares of Common Stock, (iii) a registration statement on form S-8 filed with the Commission on
January 26, 2010, registration no. 333-164527, covering 3,121,650 shares of Common Stock and (iv) a registration statement on form S-8 filed with the Commission on May 12, 2012, registration no. 333-181317, covering 12,553,350 shares
of Common Stock (collectively, the "Prior Registration Statements"). The contents of the Prior Registration Statements are incorporated here by reference to the extent not modified or superseded by the Prior Registration Statements or by
any subsequently filed document that is incorporated by reference in this registration statement or in the Prior Registration Statements. The amount of Common Stock registered under the Prior Registration Statements referenced in (i), (ii) and
(iii) has been doubled to reflect a two-for-one stock split on August 17, 2010. This registration statement is registering the additional shares recently approved by our stockholders for issuance under the Plan. The stockholders approved
an increase of 8,345,000 shares, subject to reduction for certain grants that occurred between June 30, 2013 and our annual meeting. After accounting for such grants, our stockholders approved an increase of 8,258,937 shares.
