DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

 

GeoEye, LLC, as successor by merger to GeoEye, Inc. (the “Registrant”), is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement No. 333-171254, filed with the SEC on December 17, 2010, registering Registrant’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, issuable upon conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Registrant (the “Registration Statement”) to deregister any and all securities that remain unsold under the Registration Statement.

 

Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated  July 22, 2012 (the “Merger Agreement”), as amended, by and among the Registrant, DigitalGlobe, Inc. ("DigitalGlobe"), 20/20 Acquisition Sub, Inc. and WorldView, LLC,  on January 31, 2013, the Registrant and DigitalGlobe combined their businesses through the merger of 20/20 Acquisition Sub, Inc., a direct wholly owned subsidiary of DigitalGlobe, with and into the Registrant, and the separate corporate existence of 20/20 Acquisition Sub, Inc. ceased, with the Registrant being the surviving entity. Immediately thereafter and pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Registrant merged with and into WorldView, LLC, a direct wholly owned subsidiary of DigitalGlobe, with the separate corporate existence of the Registrant having ceased and WorldView, LLC being the surviving entity. WorldView, LLC was then renamed GeoEye, LLC, and became a direct wholly owned subsidiary of DigitalGlobe (the "Merger").  As a result of the Merger, the Registrant terminated all offers and sales of its securities registered pursuant to the Registration Statement.

 

In connection with the Merger Agreement and the Merger, and in accordance with an undertaking made by the Registrant in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post−effective amendment, any securities registered under the Registration Statement that remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant hereby removes from registration any and all securities registered but unsold under the Registration Statement as of the date hereof.
