This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to each of the following Registration Statements on Form S-8 (collectively, the “Prior Registration Statements”) is being filed by Slack Technologies, LLC, as successor by merger to Slack Technologies, Inc. (the “Registrant” or “Slack”) to terminate all offerings under the Prior Registration Statements and to deregister any and all shares of Slack Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Shares”), and Slack Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Common Shares” and, together with Class A Common Shares, the “Shares”), together with any and all plan interests and other securities registered but unsold or otherwise unissued as of the date hereof thereunder (note that the Share numbers listed below do not take into account any applicable corporate actions, such as stock splits, that may have been taken in the interim):
