Pursuant to Rule 477 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), Bruker Energy & Supercon Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) hereby respectfully requests that the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) consent to the withdrawal of the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-169178), together with all exhibits and amendments thereto, initially filed with the Commission on September 3, 2010 and amended on October 18, 2010, December 23, 2010, February 7, 2011, March 15, 2011 and April 11, 2011 (the “Registration Statement”), effective as of the date hereof.
The Company has determined not to proceed with the offering of securities contemplated in the Registration Statement because of current market conditions.
