DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES
This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”) of American Restaurant Concepts, Inc. (the “Company”), File No. 333-161792, which was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 8, 2009, and declared effective on November 2, 2010.
The Registration Statement is a shelf registration statement under Rule 415(a)(1)(i), which registered for resale 926,667 shares of common stock held by certain existing stockholders of the Company. At this time, all of the shares of common stock covered by the Registration Statement are eligible for sale under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933. Therefore, it is no longer necessary for the Company to maintain the Registration Statement in order for those shareholders to resell their shares, and the Company does not desire to continue the legal, accounting and administrative cost associated with maintaining the Registration Statement.
Effective upon filing hereof, the Company hereby removes from registration all shares of Common Stock registered under the Registration Statement that remain unsold and unissued as of the date of this Post-Effective Amendment.
Also, on December 16, 2010, the Company filed a registration statement on Form 8-A12G to register its common stock under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and therefore will remain subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 following the deregistration of the shares covered by the Registration Statement.
