EXPLANATORY NOTE
Kirby Corporation (the "Registrant") has filed a Registration Statement
on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-42794) (the "Registration Statement") which
originally registered 100,000 shares of common stock, par value $.10 per share
(the "Common Stock"), of the Registrant reserved for issuance to directors of
the Registrant pursuant to the 2000 Director Stock Option Plan for Kirby
Corporation (the "Predecessor Plan"). In addition, pursuant to Rule 416 under
the Securities Act of 1933, the Registration Statement also covered an
indeterminate number of additional shares of the Common Stock issuable pursuant
to the exercise of options and/or awards granted or to be granted under the Plan
to prevent dilution that may result from any future stock splits, stock
dividends or similar transactions affecting the Common Stock.
The Registrant adopted the 2000 Nonemployee Director Stock Option Plan
for Kirby Corporation (the "Plan") on September 26, 2000, which replaced the
Predecessor Plan. No future awards will be made under the Predecessor Plan. This
Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement is filed to
deregister an aggregate of 100,000 shares (the "Shares") of Common Stock
previously registered that remain available for future grant under the
Predecessor Plan. The shares deregistered by this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1
will be registered, by a subsequently filed registration statement on Form S-8
for the Plan, and the associated registration fee paid by the Registrant to
register shares issuable under the Predecessor Plan on the Registration
Statement will be carried forward and applied to the registration fee necessary
to register shares issuable under the Plan.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets
all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this
registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto
duly authorized, in the City of Houston, State of Texas, on October 31, 2001.
