EXPLANATORY NOTE

On May 6, 2005, the registrant filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (Registration Statement 333-124711) (the “Form S-8”) registering 50,000,000 shares of the Registrant’s common stock, par value $.01 per share (the “Shares”), as well as plan interests, to be issued to participants under the Applied Materials, Inc. Employee Savings and Retirement Plan (the “Plan”).

As of January 16, 2018, the Applied Materials, Inc. Common Stock Fund under the Plan was fully liquidated and terminated resulting in common stock and plan interests no longer being offered, sold or held by participants under the Plan. This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement No. 333-124711 is being filed in order to deregister all Shares and plan interests that were registered under the Form S-8 and remain unsold under the Plan.
