     This Registration Statement relates to 130,316 shares of Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Registrant subject to issuance on exercise of options assumed by the Registrant in connection with its acquisition of The Flagship Group, Inc.

ITEM 3. INCORPORATION OF DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE

     The Registrant incorporates into this Registration Statement the following documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”):

     All documents subsequently filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered hereby have been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be 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

     The consolidated financial statements and schedule of Registrant appearing in Registrant’s Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2001, have been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, independent auditors, to the extent indicated in their report thereon that is included therein and incorporated herein by reference. Such consolidated financial statements are incorporated herein by reference in reliance upon such report given upon the authority of such firm as experts in accounting and auditing.

     The validity of the issuance of the shares of Common Stock offered hereby will be passed upon for the Registrant by Virginia R. Coles, Esq., Assistant General Counsel and Assistant Secretary of the Registrant. Ms. Coles is an employee of the Registrant. As of May 28, 2002, Ms. Coles held 1,746 shares of Intuit’s common stock and held options to purchase 46,315 shares of Common Stock (of which 30,794 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 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:

Table of Contents

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 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.
