This registration statement on Form S-8, filed on April 1, 1999, registered 12,000,000 shares of common stock (and related Preferred Stock Purchase Rights) of Varian Medical Systems, Inc. (the “Registrant”) for a registration fee of $58,797.00. Subsequently, on January 15, 2002 and July 30, 2004, the Registrant paid stock splits in the form of 100% stock dividends. By application of Rule 416 under the Securities Act of 1933, this registration statement is now deemed to extend to such additional shares (and related Preferred Stock Purchase Rights), such that the number of shares (and related Preferred Stock Purchase Rights) registered hereunder amounts to 48,000,000 (a registration fee of $0.0012249375 per share), of which 28,975,984 shares (and related Preferred Stock Purchase Rights) were transferred on April 1, 2005 pursuant to Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Varian Medical Systems, Inc. 2005 Omnibus Stock Plan (Registration Statement No. 333-123778). The purpose of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 is to transfer an additional 29,878 of such shares (and related Preferred Stock Purchase Rights) to the Form S-8 Registration Statement for the Varian Medical Systems, Inc. 2005 Omnibus Stock Plan (Second Amended and Restated 2005 Omnibus Stock Plan), for which a registration statement is being simultaneously filed. Such shares represent shares subject to awards granted under the Varian Medical Systems, Inc. Omnibus Stock Plan that were available for grant when the 2005 Omnibus Stock Plan became effective, but were not previously transferred, or shares subject to awards that have terminated, lapsed or expired since the Varian Medical Systems, Inc. 2005 Omnibus Stock Plan became effective and which, pursuant to the terms of such plan, are available for grant thereunder.
