RECENT EVENTS - DEREGISTRATION OF COMMON SHARES

 

Morgan’s Foods, Inc., an Ohio corporation (the “Company”) is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to its Registration Statements on Form S-8 to withdraw and remove from registration the unissued Company Common Shares (“Common Shares”) previously registered by the Company pursuant to the following Registration Statements (collectively, the “Registration Statements”):

 

 

1.

Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-191941), registering 150,000 Common Shares under the Morgan’s Foods, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 28, 2013;

 

2.

Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-91157) registering 436,500 Common Shares under the Morgan’s Foods, Inc. Nonqualified Stock Option Plan for Executives and Managers and the Morgan’s Foods, Inc. Key Employee Nonqualified Stock Option Plan (collective, the “Plans”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 17, 1999.

 

On May 27, 2014, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 30, 2014 (the “Agreement”), by and among Apex Restaurant Management, Inc., a California corporation (“Apex”), Apex Brands Foods, Inc., an Ohio corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Apex (“Merger Sub”) and the Company, Merger Sub merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Apex. 

 

At the effective time of the Merger, each of the Common Shares that were issued and outstanding immediately before the effective time of the Merger (other than Common Shares owned by Apex and its subsidiaries or held by the Company or its subsidiaries and dissenting Common Shares) were cancelled and extinguished and converted into the right to receive $5.00 in cash, without interest, less any required withholding taxes (the “Per Share Merger Consideration”).

 

Immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, each holder of a then-outstanding option to purchase Common Shares under the Plans will be entitled to receive, in settlement thereof, for each Common Share subject to such option, a cash payment, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes, equal to the product of (i) the excess, if any, of the Per Share Merger Consideration over the per share price of the options and (ii) the number of Common Shares subject to such holder’s options not previously exercised, whether or not then vested and exercisable. Each outstanding option or other right to receive Common Shares granted under the Plans, whether or not then vested or exercisable, was cancelled and extinguished and converted into the right to receive $3.50 per share in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes.

 

As a result of the merger, the Company has terminated all offerings of its securities pursuant to its existing Registration Statements. In accordance with an undertaking made by the Company in the Registration Statements to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any securities of the Company registered under the Registration Statements which remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Company hereby removes from registration all securities as of the date of this Post-Effective Amendment. 

 

This Post-Effective Amendment to the Registration Statements shall become effective automatically upon the date of filing in accordance with Rules 456 and 464 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
