of Liquidia Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”):
(1)
|
Form S-8 filed on July 26, 2018 (File No. 333-226344), pertaining to an aggregate of 3,097,230 shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (“Company Common Stock”), which were issuable pursuant to outstanding awards under the equity based compensation plans set forth below in the corresponding amounts listed:

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. In addition,
(i) each outstanding option and warrant to purchase shares of Company Common Stock were assumed by Liquidia Corporation and
represent the right to purchase a like number of shares of Liquidia Corporation Common Stock on the same terms and conditions,
including vesting and exercise price per share, previously applicable to such Company option or warrant, as applicable, and (ii) each
outstanding restricted stock unit to acquire shares of Company Common Stock was assumed by Liquidia Corporation and represents
the right to acquire a like number of shares of Liquidia Corporation Common Stock on the same terms and conditions, including vesting,
previously applicable to such Company restricted stock unit.
Due to the completion
of the Merger Transaction, the Company has terminated any offering of the Company’s securities pursuant to the Registration
Statements. In accordance with an undertaking made by the Company in each of the Registration Statements 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 Statements, if any, and terminates the effectiveness of the Registration Statements.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, 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 Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statements on Form S-8
to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Morrisville, State of North Carolina,
on November 18, 2020.
