EXPLANATORY NOTE

Apple filed its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 28, 2009 (the “Original Filing”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 23, 2009. The Original Filing reported the results of the shareholder votes at our 2009 Annual Meeting of Shareholders in Part II, Item 4 (Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders).

Very shortly after filing the Original Filing, we learned that the voting percentages for Proposals 2, 3, 4 and 5 and the outcome for Proposal 5 at the Annual Meeting were incorrectly reported in the Original Filing. We investigated and discovered that we mistakenly counted abstentions as “against” votes for those proposals. This Amendment No. 1 to the Original Filing corrects the error. This correction changes the voting percentages for Proposals 2, 3, 4 and 5, and the outcome only of Proposal 5, concerning an advisory vote on compensation, which was approved by the shareholders.

We are not amending any other part of the Original Filing. This amendment speaks as of the date of the Original Filing.

Part II. Other Information

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

The Annual Meeting of Shareholders (“Annual Meeting”) was held on February 25, 2009. Management Proposal 1 was approved, shareholder Proposals 2, 3 and 4 were not approved, and shareholder Proposal 5 was approved. The proposals below are described in detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement dated January 7, 2009, for the Annual Meeting held on February 25, 2009. Abstentions and broker non-votes were counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum was present. Shares not present at the Annual Meeting, broker non-votes and abstentions had no effect on the results of any of the proposals.

The results are as follows:

Proposal 1

The individuals listed below received the highest number of affirmative votes of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock present or represented by proxy and voting at the Annual Meeting, in each case constituting a majority of the total outstanding shares, and were elected at the Annual Meeting to serve a one-year term on the Board of Directors.
