PART II. INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Explanatory Note
This Registration Statement on Form S-8 is filed by CoStar Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Registrant” or the “Company”), relating to 1,476,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), issuable under the CoStar Group, Inc. 2007 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), which Common Stock is in addition to the 3,170,000 shares of Common Stock registered on the Company’s Form S-8 filed on June 22, 2007 (Commission File No. 333-143968) (the “2007 Prior Registration Statement”) and the 1,723,000 shares of Common Stock registered on the Company’s Form S-8 filed on June 9, 2010 (Commission File No. 333-167424) (the “2010 Prior Registration Statement” and together with the 2007 Prior Registration Statement, the “Prior Registration Statements”). The Company is registering 1,476,000 shares on this Form S-8 because the amendment to the Plan approved by the Company’s stockholders on June 5, 2012 authorizes the issuance of an additional 900,000 shares under the Plan (the “Additional Shares”), plus, as provided by the Plan: (i) shares available to be issued under the Plan upon the cancellation, expiration or forfeiture of awards of the Additional Shares, currently estimated to be up to 90,000 shares and (ii) shares received by the Company and available to be issued under the Plan as the result of the exchange of shares by a participant in the Plan as full or partial payment of the exercise price and/or tax withholding with respect to awards of the Additional Shares, currently estimated to be up to 486,000 shares.
This Registration Statement relates to securities of the same class as that to which the Prior Registration Statements relate and is submitted in accordance with General Instruction E to Form S-8 regarding Registration of Additional Securities. Pursuant to Instruction E of Form S-8, the contents of the Prior Registration Statements are incorporated herein by reference and made part of this Registration Statement, except as amended hereby. Also pursuant to Instruction E to Form S-8, the filing fee is being paid only with respect to the 1,476,000 shares of Common Stock not previously registered.
