The number of shares of Common Stock stated above
  represents an increase in the total number of shares reserved for issuance
  under The Toro Company 2000 Directors Plan (the "Plan"). An aggregate of
  455,000 shares have been previously registered under Registration Statement
  on Form S-8 (File No. 333-57198). In addition, the maximum number
  of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the Plan is subject to
  adjustment in accordance with certain provisions of the Plan. Accordingly,
  pursuant to Rule 416 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
  "Securities Act"), to the extent additional shares of Common Stock may be
  issued or issuable as a result of a stock split or other distribution
  declared at any time by the Board of Directors while this Registration
  Statement is in effect, this Registration Statement is hereby deemed to cover
  all such additional shares of Common Stock.

Estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the
  amount of the registration fee and calculated pursuant to
  Rule 457(c) and Rule 457(h) under the Securities Act on
  the basis of the average of the high and low sales prices of the Common
  Stock, as reported by the New York Stock Exchange on June 1, 2009
STATEMENT UNDER GENERAL INSTRUCTION E—
REGISTRATION OF ADDITIONAL SECURITIES
This Registration Statement is filed by The Toro
Company (the "Registrant") pursuant to General Instruction E of Form S-8
and relates to the Registrant's earlier Registration Statement on Form S-8
(No. 333-57198), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission")
on March 19, 2001, as amended by the Registrant's Post-Effective Amendment
No. 1 to Form S-8 (No. 333-57198), filed with the Commission on June 2,
2003, and by the Registrant's Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 to Form S-8
(No. 333-57198), filed with the Commission on May 21, 2008.  Under that earlier Registration Statement,
the Registrant registered shares of its common stock, par value $1.00 per share
(the "Common Stock"), to be offered and sold in connection with The Toro
Company 2000 Directors Stock Plan (the "Plan"). 
Following a 2-for-1 stock split with a record date of April 1,
2003, and a second 2-for-1 stock split with a record date of March 28,
2005, and the decrease in shares by the Registrant's Post-Effective Amendment No. 2
to Form S-8 (No. 333-57198), the total number of shares, on an
after-split basis, authorized to be offered and sold in connection with the
Plan was 455,000.  The contents of
Registrant's Registration Statement No. 333-57198, as amended by
Registrant's Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 and Post-Effective Amendment No. 2
are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.
Amendment to Increase
Authorized Shares
On March 18, 2009, the
shareholders of the Registrant approved an amendment to the Plan to increase
the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan
from 455,000 to 520,000, subject to adjustment to reflect changes in the
corporate or capital structure of Registrant, including but not limited to
stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions.
