This Registration Statement covers, in addition to the number of shares of SanDisk Corporation, a Delaware corporation
(the "Company" or the "Registrant"), common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), stated above, options and other rights
to purchase or acquire the shares of Common Stock covered by this Registration Statement and, pursuant to Rule 416(c) under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), an additional indeterminate number of shares, options and rights that may be offered or
issued pursuant to the SanDisk Corporation 2005 Incentive Plan, as amended (the "Plan") as a result of one or more adjustments under the
Plan to prevent dilution resulting from one or more stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions.
(2)
Each share of Common Stock is accompanied by a preferred stock purchase right pursuant to the Rights Agreement between the
Company and Computershare Trust Company, Inc. dated September 15, 2003. Until the occurrence of certain events specified in the Rights
Agreement, these rights are not exercisable, are evidenced by the certificates for the Common Stock and are transferred solely with the
Common Stock. The value attributable to these rights, if any, is reflected in the value of the Common Stock, and, accordingly, no separate
fee is paid.
(3)
Pursuant to Securities Act Rule 457(h), the maximum offering price, per share and in the aggregate, and the registration fee
were calculated based upon the average of the high and low prices of the Common Stock on August 8, 2006, as quoted on the Nasdaq Global
Market.
The Exhibit Index for this Registration Statement is at page 7.
