EXPLANATORY NOTE/ DEREGISTRATION OF UNSOLD SECURITIES

 

Pursuant to a plan of liquidation and dissolution (the “Plan of Liquidation”) that was approved by the shareholders of Sigma Designs, Inc., a California corporation (the “Registrant”) on April 17, 2018, the Registrant filed a Certificate of Election to Wind Up and Dissolve with the Secretary of State of California on May 4, 2018. Pursuant to the Corporations Code of the State of California and in accordance with the Plan of Liquidation, the Registrant is winding down its remaining business. On August 15, 2018, the Registrant filed a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to voluntarily delist its no par value common stock (“Common Stock”) from the Nasdaq Stock Market, which delisting became effective on August 27, 2018. The Registrant intends to file a Form 15 to terminate the registration of its securities under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

 

The Registrant previously registered shares of the Registrant’s Common Stock, issuable or issued under certain employee benefit and equity plans and agreements under the below referenced Registration Statements on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statements”). All offerings of Common Stock or other securities pursuant to the below referenced Registration Statements have been terminated, and there are no outstanding equity awards granted under or governed by the Registrant’s employee benefit and equity plans and agreements under the below referenced Registration Statements. In accordance with an undertaking made by the Registrant in each of the Registration Statements to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any securities that remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant hereby removes and withdraws from registration all shares of Common Stock or other securities that remain unsold as of the date hereof registered pursuant to the Registration Statements. Each Registration Statement is hereby amended, as appropriate, to reflect the deregistration of all such securities.
