DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

 

This Post-Effective Amendment relates to the following Registration Statements on Form S-8 (collectively, the “Registration Statements”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by Pivotal Software, Inc. (the “Registrant”):

 

·                  Registration Statement No. 333-224355, filed with the SEC on April 20, 2018, registering 78,269,083 shares of the Registrant’s Class A common stock, $ 0.01 par value per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), under the Registrant’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, the Registrant’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan and the Registrant’s Amended and Restated 2013 Stock Plan.

 

·                  Registration Statement No. 333-230891, filed with the SEC on April 16, 2019, registering 19,220,522 shares of the Registrant’s Class A Common Stock under the Registrant’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan and the Registrant’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

 

On August 22, 2019, the Registrant entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with VMware, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“VMware”), and Raven Transaction Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of VMware (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which, on December 30, 2019, Merger Sub merged with and into the Registrant, with the Registrant continuing as the surviving company and a wholly owned subsidiary of VMware (the “Merger”).

 

In connection with the Merger, the Registrant has terminated all offerings of the Registrant’s securities pursuant to the above-referenced Registration Statements. Accordingly, pursuant to the undertakings contained in such Registration Statements to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the securities registered that remain unsold at the termination of the offerings, the Registrant is filing this post-effective amendment to the Registration Statements to deregister, and does hereby remove from registration, all the shares of Class A Common Stock registered under such Registration Statements that remain unsold as of the date hereof, if any.
