EXPLANATORY NOTES T. Rowe Price Group, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "Registrant"), is filing this Post-Effective Amendment to deregister certain securities originally registered pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed on December 3, 1993 (file no. 33-72568) with respect to shares of the Registrant's Common Stock, par value $.20 per share (the "Common Stock"), thereby registered for offer or sale pursuant to the T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. 1993 Stock Incentive Plan (the "1993 Plan"). A total of 16,000,000 shares (split adjusted through the date of this filing) were registered for issuance under the Registrant's 1993 Plan. The Registrant has since adopted a new stock incentive plan, the T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. 2001 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2001 Plan") which replaces the 1993 Plan as of April 5, 2001, the date the shareholders approved the 2001 Plan. No future awards will be made under the 1993 Plan. According to the terms of the 2001 Plan, shares that were available for grant under the 1993 Plan when it terminated are available for grant under the 2001 Plan (the "Carried Forward Shares"). In addition, shares that are represented by outstanding awards granted under the 1993 Plan that are forfeited, expire or are canceled without the delivery of shares of Common Stock or that result in the forfeiture of shares of Common Stock back to the Registrant will be available for grant under the 2001 Plan and will be carried forward to the registration statement for the 2001 Plan prior to their offer and sale thereunder. The total number of shares available for grant under the 1993 Plan on the date the Registrant's shareholders approved the 2001 Plan was 674,473 shares. In addition, awards with respect to 11,495,471 shares were outstanding under the 1993 Plan on that date. Contemporaneously with the filing of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (file no. 33-72568), the Registrant is filing a Registration Statement on Form S-8 to register shares of Common Stock for offer or sale pursuant to the 2001 Plan, including but not limited to the Carried Forward Shares. In accordance with the principles set forth in Interpretation 89 under Section G of the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations of the Division of Corporation Finance of the Securities and Exchange Commission (July 1997) and Instruction E to the General Instructions to Form S-8, this Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 is hereby filed (i) to reallocate the Carried Forward Shares from the 1993 Plan to the 2001 Plan, and (ii) to carry over the registration fees paid for the Carried Forward Shares from the Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed for the 1993 Plan to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 for the 2001 Plan that is filed contemporaneously with the filing of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 2. This Post-Effective Amendment to the Registration Statement shall become effective upon filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 464 under the Securities Act of 1933. -2-
