EXPLANATORY NOTE

     This Registration Statement on Form S-8 registers shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Fidelity National Information Services, Inc., a Georgia corporation (the “Registrant”), which may be issued pursuant to awards granted under the Amended and Restated Certegy Inc. Stock Incentive Plan. This Registration Statement also registers Common Stock which may be issued pursuant to certain equity plans assumed by the Registrant, as described below.

PART II

INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

Item 3. Incorporation of Documents by Reference

     The following documents filed by the Registrant with the SEC are incorporated into this Registration Statement by reference:

	(1)		The Registrant’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005;
	(2)		The Registrant’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2006, June 30, 2006 and September 30, 2006;
	(3)		The Registrant’s Current Reports on Form 8-K filed January 25, 2006, February 6, 2006, March 17, 2006, May 2, 2006 (but only with respect to Item 5.02 therein), June 29, 2006, July 6, 2006, September 22, 2006, October 10, 2006, October 27, 2006, October 30, 2006 (but only with respect to Item 1.01 and Item 5.02) and November 9, 2006; and
	(4)		The description of the Registrant’s Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, contained in the Registrant’s Registration Statement on Form 10-12B/A filed with the SEC on June 11, 2004, including any amendment or report filed for the purpose of updating such description.

     All documents subsequently filed by the Registrant with the SEC pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), prior to the filing of a post—effective amendment to this Registration Statement which indicates that all securities offered hereby have been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents with the SEC.

     Any statement contained in a document incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes hereof to the extent that a statement contained herein (or in any subsequently filed document which also is incorporated by reference herein or any document which constitutes part of the prospectus relating to the Plan meeting the requirements of Section 10(a) of the Securities Act) modifies or supersedes such statement. Any statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part hereof.

Item 4. Description of Securities

     Not Applicable.

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel

     Not Applicable.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

     The Company’s articles of incorporation eliminate the liability of its directors to the Company or its shareholders for monetary damages for any action taken, or any failure to take action, as a director to the extent permitted under the Georgia Business Corporation Code (the “Code”). The Company’s directors remain liable, however, for:

	•		any appropriation, in violation of the director’s duties, of any business opportunity;
	•		acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
	•		unlawful corporate distributions as set forth in Section 14-2-832 of the Code; or
	•		any transactions from which the director received an improper personal benefit.

     If the Code is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, the liability of the Company’s directors will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the Code, as amended, without further action by the Company’s shareholders. These provisions in the Company’s articles of incorporation may limit the remedies available to a shareholder in the event of breaches of any director’s duties.

     The Company’s bylaws require the Company to indemnify and hold harmless any director or officer who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit or proceeding whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, including any action or suit by or in the right of the Company, because the person is or was a Company director or officer against liability incurred in such proceeding. The Company’s bylaws generally prohibit the Company from indemnifying any officer or director who is adjudged liable to the Company or is subjected to injunctive relief in favor of the Company for:

	•		any appropriation, in violation of the director’s or officer’s duties, of any business opportunity;
	•		acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
	•		unlawful corporate distributions as set forth in Section 14-2-832 of the Code; or
	•		any transactions from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

     The Company’s bylaws require the Company, under certain circumstances, to advance expenses to Company officers and directors who are parties to an action, suit, or proceeding for which indemnification may be sought. The bylaws permit, but do not require, the Company to indemnify and advance expenses to its employees or agents who are not officers or directors to the same extent and subject to the same conditions that a corporation could, without shareholder approval under Section 14-2-856 of the Code.

     The Company’s directors and officers are insured against losses arising from any claim against them as such for wrongful acts or omissions, subject to certain limitations. In addition to the bylaw provisions and the insurance described above, the Company has agreed to indemnify its directors against certain liabilities to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Item 7. Exemption From Registration Claimed

     Not Applicable.

Item 9. Undertakings

(a)

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

(1)

To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post—effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

	(i)		to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
	(ii)		to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in

			volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;
	(iii)		to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;

Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-8, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

	(2)		That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post—effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof;
	(3)		To remove from registration by means of a post—effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(b)

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c)

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

SIGNATURES

     The Registrant. Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act, 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 Jacksonville, State of Florida, on November 13, 2006.

Power of Attorney and Signatures

Carbiener, and each of them individually, with full powers of substitution and resubstitution, our true and lawful attorneys, with full powers to them and each of them to sign for us, in our names and in the capacities indicated below, any and all amendments to such Registration Statement (including post-effective amendments), and to file the same, with all exhibits thereto and other documents in connection therewith, with the Securities and Exchange Commission, granting unto such attorneys, and each of them, full power and authority to do and perform each and every act and thing requisite and necessary to be done in connection therewith, as fully to all intents and purposes as each of them might or could do in person, and hereby ratifying and confirming all that such attorneys, and each of them, or their substitute or substitutes, shall do or cause to be done by virtue of this Power of Attorney.

		Re:		Registration Statement on Form S-8 for Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. Employee Stock Incentive Plan

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     I have acted as in-house counsel to Fidelity National Information Services, Inc., a Georgia corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the preparation of a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) relating to an aggregate of 4,000,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, issuable by the Company in accordance with the Amended and Restated Certegy Inc. Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). This opinion letter is rendered pursuant to Item 8 of Form S-8 and Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K of the Commission.

     As such counsel, I have examined and relied upon such records, documents, certificates, and other instruments as in my judgment are necessary or appropriate to form the basis for the opinions hereinafter set forth. In all such examinations, I have assumed the genuineness of signatures on original documents and the conformity to such original documents of all copies submitted to us as certified, conformed, or photographic copies, and as to certificates of public officials, I have assumed the same to have been properly given and to be accurate.

     Based upon and subject to the foregoing, I am of the opinion that the Shares to be issued under the Plan are duly authorized and, when issued by the Company in accordance with the terms of the Plan, will be validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable.
