EXPLANATORY NOTE
Atchison Casting Corporation (the "Company") originally filed a
Registration Statement on Form S-8, File No. 333-93765, with the Securities
and Exchange Commission on December 29, 1999 (the "Original Form S-8"). The
Original Form S-8 covers an aggregate of 600,000 shares of Common Stock,
par value $0.01 per share, of the Company to be issued under nine separate
benefit plans administered by the Company or its subsidiaries.
This Post-Effective Amendment to the Original Form S-8 is being filed
to reflect the merger of two of those benefit plans, the Atchison Casting
Corporation Savings Plan (the "Savings Plan") and the Atchison Casting
Corporation 401(k) Plan (the "401(k) Plan"). Pursuant to that merger, the
401(k) Plan is the surviving plan. The Savings Plan ceased to exist as of
the date of the merger and the entirety of the 30,000 shares of Company
Common Stock reserved for the Savings Plan under the Original Form S-8
referenced above has been transferred to the 401(k) Plan as a result of the
merger. Corresponding plan interests are also being transferred.
This Post-Effective Amendment to the Original Form S-8 is also being
filed to reflect the assumption of the Jahn Foundry Corporate Union 401(k)
Plan (the "Jahn Plan") by New England Iron, LLC. All 25,000 shares of
Common Stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share, registered under
the Jahn Plan pursuant to the Original Form S-8 remain unsold and are
hereby deregistered. In addition, all corresponding plan interests
registered under the Jahn Plan pursuant to the Original Form S-8 are hereby
deregistered.
Other than the 401(k) Plan, the Savings Plan and the Jahn Plan, none
of the remaining plans included in the Original Form S-8, nor the shares or
plan interests registered under them, are affected by this Post-Effective
Amendment. The contents of the Original Form S-8, File No. 333-93765, are
incorporated herein by reference.
