DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

 

SCOR, a société anonyme organized under the laws of the French Republic (the “Company”) is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form S-8 Registration Statement (File No. 333-129959, the "Registration Statement") to deregister certain ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of stock options issued pursuant to the Company's Specific Stock Option Plan for the Subscription of Shares to be Issued, dated September 16, 2005.

On May 24, 2007, the Company announced its intention to apply for the voluntary delisting of its American Depositary Shares (ADSs) from the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and to voluntarily terminate the registration of its ordinary shares and ADSs under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, this post-effective amendment is being filed to terminate the Registration Statement and to deregister, as of the date hereof, all of the ordinary shares that remain unissued under the Registration Statement.

Contemporaneously with the filing of this post-effective amendment, the Company is filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (i) notification of removal from listing and/or registration under section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on Form 25; and (ii) certification of a foreign private issuer's termination of registration of a class of securities under section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on Form 15F.
