EXPLANATORY NOTE

Exponent, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), is filing this Post-Effective Amendment to deregister any and all securities that remain unsold under the Company’s Registration Statements on Form S-8 (Nos. 333-31830; 333-67806; 333-99243; 333-106105; 333-117108; 333-128141; and 333-138618) (collectively, the “Registration Statements”), which relate to the Registrant’s (i) 1998 Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan; (ii) 1999 Stock Option Plan; (iii) Restricted Stock Award Plan; and (iv) Employee Stock Purchase Plan (collectively, the “Plans”). The Registration Statements registered shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), to be offered and sold pursuant to the Plans.

The Company has terminated all offerings of Common Stock pursuant to the Registration Statements and no shares of Common Stock are available for issuance under the Plans. Accordingly, the Company hereby terminates the effectiveness of the Registration Statements and, pursuant to the undertakings contained in the Registration Statements to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any shares of Common Stock that had been registered for issuance but remain unsold at the termination of the offerings, the Company hereby removes from registration any remaining Common Stock that was registered for issuance pursuant to the Registration Statements and that remain unsold as of the date hereof. The Registration Statements are hereby amended, as appropriate, to reflect the deregistration of such Common Stock.
