TERMINATION OF REGISTRATION STATEMENT AND DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

 

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) of Liquidia Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), filed on August 12, 2019, pertaining to 300,000 shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (“Company Common Stock”), which were available for sale under the Liquidia Technologies, Inc. 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

 

On November 18, 2020, pursuant to the terms and conditions of that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of June 29, 2020, by and among the Company, RareGen, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“RareGen”), Gemini Merger Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Liquidia Merger Sub”), Gemini Merger Sub II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“RareGen Merger Sub”), PBM RG Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as Members’ Representative, and Liquidia Corporation, a newly formed Delaware corporation (“Liquidia Corporation”), Liquidia Merger Sub, a wholly owned subsidiary of Liquidia Corporation, merged with and into the Company (the “Liquidia Technologies Merger”), and RareGen Merger Sub, a wholly owned subsidiary of Liquidia Corporation, merged with and into RareGen (the “RareGen Merger” and, together with the Liquidia Technologies Merger, the “Merger Transaction”). Upon consummation of the Merger Transaction, the separate corporate existences of Liquidia Merger Sub and RareGen Merger Sub ceased and the Company and RareGen survive as wholly owned subsidiaries of Liquidia Corporation.

 

In connection with the Merger Transaction, each outstanding share of Company Common Stock, whether certificated or held in book-entry form, automatically converted into one share of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of Liquidia Corporation (“Liquidia Corporation Common Stock”), and such shares of Company Common Stock converted into Liquidia Corporation Common Stock were cancelled.

 

Due to the completion of the Merger Transaction, the Company has terminated any offering of the Company’s securities pursuant to the Registration Statement. In accordance with an undertaking made by the Company in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the securities that had been registered for issuance that remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Company hereby removes from registration all of such securities of the Company registered but unsold under the Registration Statement, if any, and terminates the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.
