This post-effective amendment is being filed by Building Materials Holding Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Registrant"), pursuant to Rule 414 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), as the successor issuer to BMC West, following a reorganization of BMC West into a holding company organizational structure. The holding company organizational structure was implemented, in accordance with Section 251(g) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, by the merger (the "Merger") of BMC West Merger Corporation, a Delaware corporation, with and into BMC West, which was the surviving corporation. In the Merger, which was consummated on September 23, 1997, each share of capital stock of BMC West issued and outstanding or held in its treasury was converted into one share of capital stock of the Registrant, and BMC West became a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant. Also as part of the Merger, each outstanding option to purchase shares of BMC West's common stock under the Plans was automatically converted into an option to purchase, upon the same terms and conditions, an identical number of shares of the Registrant's common stock. In accordance with Rule 414 under the Securities Act, the Registrant, as the successor issuer to BMC West, hereby expressly adopts the Registration Statement and the Plans as its own for all purposes of the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The registration fees were paid at the time of the original filing of this registration statement. SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this amendment to the registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the city of San Francisco, state of California, on this 9th day of October, 1997.
