POST-EFFECTIVE AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO
REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM S-8
EXPLANATORY NOTE
Pursuant to Item 512(a)(3) of Regulation S-K, this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the registration statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-134005) filed by Crown Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) on May 11, 2006 is filed in order to deregister securities remaining under such registration statement.
On May 11, 2006, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-134005) to register an aggregate of 7,500,000 shares of common stock issuable under the Company's 2006 Stock-Based Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Prior Plan”). On April 25, 2013 (the “Approval Date”), the Company's stockholders approved the adoption of the 2013 Stock-Based Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) that replaced and superseded the Prior Plan.
The Plan provides, among other things, that if any shares of common stock subject to awards granted under the Prior Plan (such shares, the “Outstanding Award Shares”) are forfeited or otherwise terminate, such shares shall become available for issuance under the Plan. Furthermore, the shares of common stock that were available for grant under the Prior Plan and that were not subject to outstanding awards as of April 25, 2013 (such shares, the “Remaining Shares”) will not be issued pursuant to the Prior Plan but instead will be available for awards under the Plan. As of the date of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1, there was an aggregate of 2,520,247 Outstanding Award Shares and an aggregate of 1,169,698 Remaining Shares (all such shares are collectively referred to as the “Carried Forward Shares”).
This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 is being filed to deregister the Carried Forward Shares. The Company is concurrently filing a separate registration statement on Form S-8 to reflect that the Outstanding Award Shares may be issued under the Prior Plan or the Plan and the Remaining Shares may be issued under the Plan, and to carry over the filing fees for Carried Forward Shares.
In accordance with the principles set forth in Interpretation 89 under Section G of the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations of the Division of Corporation Finance of the Securities and Exchange Commission (July 1997) and Instruction E to the General Instructions to Form S-8, this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 is hereby filed (i) to reflect that, following the date hereof, the Outstanding Award Shares may be issued under either the Prior Plan or the Plan and the Remaining Shares may be issued under the Plan, and (ii) to carry over the registration fees paid for all the Carried Forward Shares from the registration statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-134005), filed for the Prior Plan, to the registration statement on Form S-8 filed for the Prior Plan and the Plan, which is being filed contemporaneously with the filing of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1.
