Explanatory Note: De-Registration of Securities
This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 is filed for the purpose of deregistering 10,120,000 shares of the common stock of MidgardXXI, Inc., formerly named Exabyte Corporation (the “Company”), heretofore registered and offered pursuant to the terms of the Prospectus dated June 19, 2006.
On November 20, 2006, the Company completed the sale of substantially all of its assets to Tandberg Data Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Tandberg Data ASA, a company organized under the laws of Norway (collectively, ”Tandberg”). The sale was completed pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement (the ”Agreement”) between Exabyte Corporation and Tandberg, dated August 29, 2006. The Agreement was approved by the Company’s Independent Committee, ratified by its Board of Directors, and approved by the Company’s stockholders on November 16, 2006. In connection with the approval of the sale, the stockholders also approved proposals providing for the changing of the corporate name of the Company to MidgardXXI, Inc. and the dissolution of the Company following the consummation of the sale.
The Company has filed its statement of dissolution with the State of Delaware. The Company has determined that no further shares will be offered or sold pursuant to the Prospectus. The Company therefore requests deregistration of the unsold shares of common stock pursuant to this Registration Statement as soon as practicable after the filing of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1.
