DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES
View, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), is filing this post-effective amendment (the “Post-Effective Amendment”) to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-4 (No. 333-251683), originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 23, 2020, and declared effective on February 16, 2021, relating to the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), registered in connection with the Company’s de-SPAC transaction (the “Registration Statement”), to deregister any and all securities of the Company registered but unsold or otherwise unissued under the Registration Statement as of the date hereof.
As disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 2, 2024, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code with a prepackaged chapter 11 plan. In connection therewith, on April 3, 2024, The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) determined to delist the Company’s Common Stock and redeemable warrants, exercisable for Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share (“Warrants”), and to suspend trading thereof on April 5, 2024.
On April 25, 2024, Nasdaq filed a Notification of Removal From Listing and/or Registration on Form 25 with the SEC to delist the Common Stock and Warrants from Nasdaq and to deregister the Common Stock and Warrants under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The Company intends to file a Certification and Notice of Termination of Registration on Form 15 with the SEC providing notice of the termination of registration of the Common Stock and Warrants under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and the suspension of the Company’s reporting obligations under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act.
As a result of the determination to delist and deregister the Company’s Common Stock and Warrants, the Company has terminated all offerings of its securities pursuant to the Registration Statement. In accordance with an undertaking made by the Company in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of this Post-Effective Amendment, any securities that had been registered but remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Company hereby amends the Registration Statement to remove from registration all securities, as applicable, registered under the Registration Statement that remain unsold as of the date of this Post-Effective Amendment.
