This Registration Statement relates to 400,000 shares of Common Stock,

shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan. On January 25,
1999, the Registrant filed a Form S-8 Registration Statement (file no.

deemed incorporated by reference herein and to be a part hereof from the date of
the filing of such documents.
ITEM 5. NAMED EXPERTS; INTERESTS OF NAMED COUNSEL

<PAGE> 3

The validity of the issuance of the shares of Common Stock offered hereby

of Intuit's common stock and held options to purchase 36,315 shares of Common
Stock (of which 15,648 shares are exercisable within the next 60 days).
ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
As permitted by Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the
Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation includes a provision that eliminates
the personal liability of its directors for monetary damages for breach or
alleged breach of their duty of care. In addition, as permitted by Section 145
of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Registrant's Bylaws provide that:
(i) the Registrant is required to indemnify its directors and officers and
persons serving in such capacities at the Registrant's request in other business
enterprises (including, for example, subsidiaries of the Registrant), to the
fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, including those circumstances in which
indemnification would otherwise be discretionary; (ii) the Registrant may, in
its discretion, indemnify employees and agents in those circumstances where
indemnification is not required by law; (iii) the Registrant is required to
advance expenses, as incurred, to its directors and officers in connection with
defending a proceeding (except that it is not required to advance expenses to a
person against whom the Registrant brings a claim for breach of the duty of
loyalty, for an act or omission not in good faith, intentional misconduct, a
knowing violation of law or deriving an improper personal benefit from a
transaction); (iv) the rights conferred in the Bylaws are not exclusive and the
Registrant is authorized to enter into indemnification agreements with its
directors, officers and employees; and (v) the Registrant may not retroactively
amend the Bylaw provisions in a way that is adverse to such directors, officers
and employees.
The Registrant's policy is to enter into indemnity agreements with each of
its directors and executive officers that provide the maximum indemnity allowed
to directors and executive officers by Section 145 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law and the Bylaws, as well as certain additional procedural
protections. In addition, the indemnity agreements provide that directors and
executive officers will be indemnified to the fullest possible extent not
prohibited by law against all expenses (including attorney's fees) and
settlement amounts paid or incurred by them in any action or proceeding, by
reason of their services as directors or executive officers of the Registrant or
as directors or officers of any other company or enterprise when they are
serving in such capacities at the request of the Registrant. The Registrant will
not be obligated pursuant to the agreements to indemnify or advance expenses to
an indemnified party with respect to proceedings or claims initiated by the
indemnified party and not by way of defense, except with respect to proceedings
specifically authorized by the Board of Directors or brought to enforce a right
of indemnification under the indemnity agreements, the Registrant's Bylaws or
any statute or law. Under the agreements, the Registrant is not obligated to
indemnify the indemnified party: (i) for any expenses incurred by the
indemnified party with respect to any proceeding instituted by the indemnified
party to enforce or interpret the agreement, if a court of competent
jurisdiction determines that each of the material assertions made by the
indemnified party in such proceeding was not made in good faith or was
frivolous; (ii) for any amounts paid in settlement of a proceeding unless the
Registrant consents to such settlement; (iii) with respect to any proceeding or
claim brought by the Registrant against the indemnified party for willful
misconduct, unless a court determines that each of such claims was not made in
good faith or was frivolous; (iv) on account of any suit in which judgment is
rendered against the indemnified party for an accounting of profits made from
the purchase or sale by the indemnified party of securities of the Registrant
pursuant to the provisions of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act and related
laws; (v) on account of the indemnified party's conduct which is finally
adjudged to have been knowingly fraudulent or deliberately dishonest, or to
constitute willful misconduct or a knowing violation of the law; (vi) on account
of any conduct from which
2
<PAGE> 4
the indemnified party derived an improper personal benefit; (vii) on account of
conduct the indemnified party believed to be contrary to the best interests of
the Registrant or its stockholders; (viii) on account of conduct that
constituted a breach of the indemnified party's duty of loyalty to the
Registrant or its stockholders; or (ix) if a final decision by a court having
jurisdiction in the matter shall determine that such indemnification is not
lawful.
The indemnification provision in the Bylaws, and the indemnity agreements
entered into between the Registrant and its directors and executive officers,
may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of the Registrant's officers
and directors for liabilities arising under the Securities Act.
The indemnity agreements require the Registrant to maintain director and
officer liability insurance to the extent readily available. The Registration
currently carries a director and officer liability insurance policy.

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3)
of the Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
after the effective date of the Registration Statement
(or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof)
which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a
fundamental change in the information set forth in the
Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered
(if the total dollar value of securities offered would
not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation
from the low or high end of the estimated maximum
offering range may be reflected in the form of
prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule
424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and
price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum
aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation
of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration
statement;
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the
plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the
Registration Statement or any material change to such
information in the Registration Statement; provided,
however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) above do not
apply if the Registration Statement is on Form S-3 or
Form S-8 or Form F-3, and the information required to be
included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with
or furnished to the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or
Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated
by reference in the Registration Statement.
(2) That for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide
offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered, which remain,
unsold at the termination of the offering.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining
any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual
report pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, (and, where
applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to
Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the provisions described in Item 6 hereof, or otherwise,
the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a
claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by
the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person
in connection with the
4
<PAGE> 6
securities being registered hereby, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion
of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a
court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by
it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
