DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES
This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”) of Answers Corporation (the “Company”), originally File No. 333-144630, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 17, 2007.
On February 2, 2011, the Company, AFCV Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“AFCV”), and A-Team Acquisition Sub, Inc., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of AFCV and a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement provided for the merger of Merger Sub with and into Answers.com (the “Merger”), with Answers.com continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of AFCV.
On April 12, 2011, the Merger became effective as a result of the filing of a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. As a result of the Merger, the Company has terminated all offerings of its securities pursuant to the Registration Statement. Effective upon filing hereof, the Company hereby removes from registration all securities registered under the Registration Statement that remain unsold and unissued as of the date of this Post-Effective Amendment.
