(the "Company") previously registered on this Registration Statement 4,490,166 shares of its Common Stock for issuance under its 1990 Stock Plan. On September 9, the Stockholders (the "Stockholders") of Adaptec, Inc. approved the Company's 1999 Stock Plan and authorized for issuance thereunder (a) 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock plus (b) any shares of Common Stock reserved but ungranted under the Company's 1990 Stock Plan as of the date of Stockholder approval of the 1999 Stock Plan plus (c) any shares of returned to the 1990 Stock Plan after the date of Stockholder approval of the 1999 Stock Plan as a result of termination of options under the 1990 Stock Plan. Upon Stockholder approval of the 1999 Stock Plan, the 1990 Stock Plan was terminated with respect to new option grants. This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 amends the Registration Statement to register 4,490,166 shares of Common Stock for issuance under the 1999 Plan rather than under the 1990 Stock Plan. These 4,490,166 shares represent a portion of the reserved but ungranted shares of Common Stock under the 1990 Stock Plan which the Stockholders approved for issuance under the 1999 Stock Plan.
