TERMINATION OF REGISTRATION STATEMENTS AND DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

 

These Post-Effective Amendments No. 1 filed by Liquidia Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) deregister all securities that remain unsold under the following Registration Statements on Form S-3 (each a “Registration Statement,” and collectively, the “Registration Statements”) filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission:

 

·Registration Statement Number 333-236227 on Form S-3 filed on February 3, 2020 and declared effective on February 13, 2020, registering an aggregate of up to 7,164,534 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (“Company Common Stock”) that may be offered from time to time by the selling stockholders named therein; and

·Registration Statement Number 333-233438 on Form S-3 filed on August 23, 2019 and declared effective on September 10, 2019, registering an indeterminate number of shares of Company Common Stock, preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, debt securities, warrants and units, having a maximum aggregate offering price of $200,000,000.00.

 

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 Statements. In accordance with an undertaking made by the Company in 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.
