As a result of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Registrant has terminated any and all offerings of Common Stock pursuant to the above-referenced Registration Statements. In accordance with undertakings made by the Registrant in Part II of each of the Registration Statements to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any securities that had been registered under the Registration Statements for issuance that remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant hereby removes and withdraws from registration any and all such securities registered under such Registration Statements that remain unsold or otherwise unissued, if any, as of the date hereof, and the Registration Statements are hereby amended, as appropriate, to reflect the deregistration of such securities.
