Preliminary Note:

This Form 8-K/A amends the Form 8-K filed by Yahoo! Inc. (the “Company”) on April 21, 2009 (the “Original 8-K”), disclosing its plans to reduce its number of current employees worldwide by approximately 5 percent. This 8-K/A is being filed to amend the Original 8-K to update the disclosures made therein.

Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

On April 21, 2009, the Company filed the Original 8-K disclosing its plans to reduce its number of current employees worldwide by approximately 5 percent. At the time of filing the Original 8-K, the Company was unable to estimate the total charges expected to be incurred in connection with the workforce reduction.

The Company estimates that it will incur total pre-tax cash charges of between $30 million and $34 million in severance pay expenses and related cash expenditures in connection with this workforce reduction. The pre-tax cash charges will be offset by a credit related to stock-based compensation expense reversals for forfeited stock-based awards of between $7 million and $8 million, resulting in restructuring charges, net of between $22 million and $27 million, all of which are expected to be recorded in the second quarter of 2009.
