DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

On March 29, 2004, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) declared effective the registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-113513) (the “Registration Statement”) filed by Akamai Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) with respect to the resale on a continuous or delayed basis of an aggregate of $200,000,000 of 1% Convertible Senior Notes due December 15, 2033 (the “Notes”) and 12,944,980 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company, issuable upon conversion of the Notes (collectively with the Notes, the “Securities”).

The Registration Statement was filed for the benefit of holders of the Notes (the “Holders”).

The Company agreed with the initial purchasers of the Notes (the “Initial Purchasers”) to keep the Registration Statement effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which all Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement, dated December 12, 2003, by and among the Company and Credit Suisse First Boston LLC) covered by such Registration Statement have been sold pursuant thereto or (ii) two years after the effective date of the Registration Statement.

In accordance with such agreement, and in accordance with the Company’s undertaking under Regulation S-K Item 512(a)(3), the Company is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement to remove from registration all Securities not sold by the Holders pursuant to the Registration Statement.
