Termination of Registration Statement and Deregistration of Remaining Securities

 

On February 23, 2004, Yellow Roadway Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and certain of the guarantors subsidiaries listed in the Table of Additional Registrants (the “Guarantor Subsidiaries” and, together with the Company, the “Registrants”) filed a registration statement on Form S-3, Reg. No. 333-113021 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), which was subsequently declared effective. The Registration Statement registered the resale by the selling security holders named therein of a total of $150,000,000 of the Company’s 3.375% Contingent Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 (the “Notes”), the common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes (the “Conversion Shares”) and the related subsidiary guarantees of the Notes by the Guarantor Subsidiaries (the “Guarantees” and, together with the Notes and the Conversion Shares, the “Registered Securities”).

 

The Registration Statement was filed pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement dated November 25, 2003, by and among the Registrants and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., as representative of the initial purchasers (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), so that the selling security holders named in the Registration Statement could sell the Registered Securities pursuant to the prospectus contained therein from time to time on terms to be negotiated with buyers. None of the Registrants received any of the proceeds from the sale by any of the selling security holders of the Registered Securities.

 

The Registrants’ obligations pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement to keep the Registration Statement effective have ceased and the Company has determined that any remaining excess amount of Registered Securities that were registered under the Registration Statement can be removed from registration. Pursuant to the undertaking contained in the Registration Statement, the Registrants file this post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement to remove from registration any remaining unsold amounts of Registered Securities.
