EXPLANATORY NOTE

John Wiley & Sons, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (this “Amendment”) to amend the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2020 (the “Original Filing”), which was originally filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 26, 2020 (the “Original Filing Date”).  The sole purpose of this Amendment is to amend the Exhibits contained in Item 15(a)(3) of Part IV of the Original Filing to include Exhibit 4.1, Description of Securities Registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which was inadvertently omitted in the Original Filing.

This Amendment is an exhibit-only filing.  Except as described above, no changes have been made to the Original Filing and this Amendment does not modify, amend, or update in any way any of the financial or other information contained in the Original Filing. This Amendment does not reflect events that may have occurred subsequent to the Original Filing Date. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing and the Company’s other filings with the SEC.

Pursuant to Rule 12b-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), currently dated certifications are filed herewith as exhibits to this Amendment pursuant to Rule 13a-14(a) or 15d-14(a) of the Exchange Act under Item 15 of Part IV hereof. Because no financial statements have been included in this Amendment and this Amendment does not contain any disclosure with respect to Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S-K, paragraphs 3, 4, and 5 of the certifications have been omitted.  Similarly, because no financial statements have been included in this Amendment, certifications pursuant to Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 have been omitted.
