DEREGISTRATION OF SHARES
On December 17, 2003, Anteon International Corporation (the “Company”) filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (333-111249) (the “Registration Statement”) which registered, for issuance from time to time, 11,105,490 shares of Company common stock, par value $0.01 (the “Securities”) to be sold by the Company and certain selling stockholders. The Registration Statement was declared effective on or about March 2, 2004. On October 29, 2004, certain selling stockholders sold 3,600,000 shares of the Securities in an underwritten offering pursuant to the Registration Statement. No other shares have been sold pursuant to the Registration statement.
The Company, General Dynamics Corporation (“General Dynamics”) and Avenger Acquisition Corporation (“Merger Sub”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated December 13, 2005 (the “Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which, among other things, the Company would be merged with and into Merger Sub, an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of General Dynamics, and all outstanding shares of Company common stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger (other than shares of Company common stock owned by the Company, General Dynamics or Merger Sub or any of their respective subsidiaries and other than dissenting shares), together with any associated rights under the Company’s rights agreement, would be cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive per share of Company common stock an amount in cash equal to $55.50, without interest, less any required withholding taxes (these actions being collectively referred to as the “Merger”).
On March 3, 2006, the Company held a special meeting of stockholders at which the stockholders adopted the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. On June 8, 2006, the Merger closed in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement.
As a result of the Merger, which was consummated on June 8, 2006, the Company has terminated all offerings of its common stock and other securities, including the Securities, pursuant to its existing registration statements, including the Registration Statement. In accordance with the foregoing and the undertaking made by the Company in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any Securities which remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Company hereby removes from registration all the Securities under the Registration Statement which remain unissued and unsold as of the date hereof.
