DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES
On August 26, 2011, SFN Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), filed a registration statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-176510) (the “Registration Statement”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to a total of 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), authorized for issuance under the SFN Group, Inc. Amended and Restated 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Registration Statement also covered (1) such additional shares of Common Stock as may become issuable pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions of the Plan and (2) rights to purchase Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, to be issued with respect to each share of Common Stock issued under the Plan.
On September 2, 2011, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 20, 2011, by and among the Company, Randstad North America, L.P. (“Parent”) and Cosmo Delaware Acquisition Corp. (“Purchaser”), Purchaser merged with and into the Company with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, the Company’s Common Stock is no longer publicly traded. Accordingly, the Company wishes to terminate the offering of securities registered pursuant to the Registration Statement.
Pursuant to the undertaking made by the Company in the Registration Statement to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Company is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement to terminate the effectiveness of such Registration Statement and to deregister all of the shares of Common Stock that remain unsold as of the date hereof.
