At a special meeting of shareholders of the Registrant held on April 11, 2016, the shareholders of the Registrant approved proposals regarding the amendment and restatement of the Registrant’s certificate of incorporation (the “Restated Charter”) in order to, among other things, reclassify and exchange the Registrant’s existing common stock into three new tracking stocks, to be designated the Liberty SiriusXM common stock, the Liberty Braves common stock and the Liberty Media common stock (the “Reclassification and Exchange”). The Reclassification and Exchange became effective upon the filing of the Restated Charter on April 15, 2016 (the “Effective Time”). As a result of the Reclassification and Exchange, there are no longer any outstanding shares of the Registrant’s Series A common stock, Series B common stock or Series C common stock.

 

As a result of the Reclassification and Exchange, the Registrant has terminated any and all offerings of the Registrant’s securities pursuant to the Registration Statements as of the Effective Time. Accordingly, by this Post-Effective Amendment to the Registration Statements, the Registrant hereby deregisters all shares of Series A common stock and Series C common stock covered by the Registration Statements remaining unsold as of the Effective Time.
