Ladies and Gentlemen:
Pursuant to Rule 477 under the Securities Act of 1933, Marco Community Bancorp, Inc. (“MCBN”) hereby requests the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) consent to withdraw the above-referenced registration statement. Due to market conditions and other factors, MCBN has determined not to proceed with the registration of the offer and sale of its common stock at this time, but may decide to do so in the future. No shares of common stock have been offered or sold pursuant to the registration statement and the registration statement was never declared effective.
MCBN believes that withdrawal of the registration statement is consistent with the public interest and the protection of investors, as contemplated by paragraph (a) of Rule 477. Accordingly, MCBN respectfully requests that the SEC grant its request to withdraw the registration statement.
If you have any questions or comments about the foregoing, please contact Richard Pearlman of Igler & Dougherty, P.A. at (850) 878-2411.
| | Sincerely, |
| | |
| | MARCO COMMUNITY BANCORP, INC. |
