EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

          TheStreet.com, Inc. (the “Registrant”) is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-8 to deregister certain shares of the Registrant’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share and associated preferred stock purchase rights (the “Common Stock”), originally registered for issuance pursuant to awards granted under the TheStreet.com, Inc. 1998 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the “1998 Plan”). A total of 4,500,000 shares of Common Stock were initially registered for issuance under a registration statement on Form S-8 filed on February 10, 2006 (file No. 333-131753). As of August 8, 2007, 2,134,747 of such shares had been issued and 2,140,551 shares were subject to outstanding awards.

          On May 24, 2007, the stockholders of the Registrant approved the TheStreet.com, Inc. 2007 Performance Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”), which replaces the 1998 Plan. No future awards will be made under the 1998 Plan. According to the terms of the 2007 Plan, any unused shares authorized for awards under the 1998 Plan, as well as any shares subject to awards under the 1998 Plan that subsequently expire or are forfeited or terminated may be issued under the 2007 Plan. As of August 8, 2007, the total number of shares of Common Stock available for awards under the 1998 Plan is 224,702 (the “Carryover Shares”).

          Contemporaneously with the filing of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-8, the Registrant is filing a Registration Statement on Form S-8 to register 1,250,000 shares of Common Stock that have been authorized for issuance under the 2007 Plan and the Carryover Shares. The Registrant is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to deregister the 224,702 Carryover Shares and transfer those shares to the Registration Statement filed with respect to the 2007 Plan.

          The Registrant may, from time to time, file additional post-effective amendments to this Registration Statement to deregister shares that subsequently become available for new awards and transfer such shares to a Registration Statement for issuance under the 2007 Plan.
