EXPLANATORY NOTE
Advance Auto Parts, Inc. (the “Registrant”) is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form S-8 Registration Statement (the “Post-Effective Amendment”) to deregister certain securities originally registered by the Registrant pursuant to its Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on December 16, 2011 (Registration Statement No. 333-178572 and referred to herein as the “Prior Registration Statement”) with respect to shares of the Registrant’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), thereby registered for offer or sale pursuant to the Advance Auto Parts, Inc. 2004 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2004 Plan”). The Prior Registration Statement registered 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock.
The Registrant has since adopted a new equity incentive plan, the Advance Auto Parts, Inc. 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”), and registered shares of Common Stock now available for offer or sale pursuant to the 2014 Plan on a new Registration Statement on Form S-8, initially filed on May 23, 2014 (Registration Statement No. 333-196240 and referred to herein as the “New Registration Statement”). No future awards will be made under the 2004 Plan. This Post-Effective Amendment is being filed solely to deregister the 5,000,000 shares registered under the Prior Registration Statement (the “2011 Shares”) that will not be used for awards under the 2004 Plan, and such shares are hereby deregistered under the Prior Registration Statement. The registration fee paid for the 2011 Shares under the Prior Registration Statement will be offset against the filing fee for the New Registration Statement.
