DEREGISTRATION OF UNSOLD SECURITIES

 

These Post-Effective Amendments (the “Post-Effective Amendments”) relate to the following Registration Statements on Form S-8 (collectively, the “Registration Statements”) of Patriot Transportation Holding, Inc., a Florida corporation (the “Registrant”):

 

•

Registration Statement No. 333-201791, registering 30,000 shares of common stock, $0.10 par value per share, of the Registrant issuable under the Patriot Transportation Holding, Inc. Profit Sharing and Deferred Earnings Plan.

 

•

Registration Statement Nos. 333-262651, 333-252886, 333-238294, 333-231421 and 333-201792, registering an aggregate of 1,135,043 shares of common stock, $0.10 par value per share, of the Registrant issuable under the Patriot Transportation Holding, Inc. 2014 Equity Incentive Plan.

 

in each case, plus such indeterminate number of shares of common stock as may be issued to prevent dilution resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions.

 

On November 1, 2023, the Registrant entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Blue Horizon Partners, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation (“Parent”) and Blue Horizon Partners Merger Sub, Inc., a Florida corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”). The Merger Agreement provided, among other things, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, that Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company, with the Company surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”).  The Merger became effective on December 21, 2023.

In accordance with undertakings made by the Registrant in each of the Registration Statements to remove from registration, by means of post-effective amendments, any of the securities registered pursuant to the Registration Statements that remain unsold at the termination of the offerings, the Registrant hereby removes from registration all such securities registered but unsold under the Registration Statements, if any, as of the filing date of these Post-Effective Amendments. Each Registration Statement is hereby amended, as appropriate, to reflect the deregistration of such securities and to terminate the effectiveness of the Registration Statements.
