On February 14, 2001, Heska Corporation (the “Company”) filed its Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-55602), covering 4,573,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to be sold by certain stockholders of the Company. On April 5, 2001, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) declared the Registration Statement effective.
The Registration Statement was filed to register shares of the Company’s common stock issued to certain parties as a result of a private placement on February 6, 2001. As of August 25, 2003, the selling stockholders had resold 346,000 shares registered under the Registration Statement.
Pursuant to Rule 477 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Company respectfully requests that the Commission withdraw the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3. The Company is requesting the withdrawal of the Registration Statement because, pursuant to Section 7.1.1(f) of the Stock Purchase Agreement between the Company and the selling stockholders, the Company’s obligation to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement expired on April 5, 2003.
Accordingly, the Company hereby de-registers the 4,227,000 shares of its common stock registered pursuant to the Registration Statement remaining unsold thereunder.
