DEREGISTRATION OF UNSOLD SECURITIES
These post-effective amendments are being filed to deregister all securities of DAVIDsTEA Inc., a corporation incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act (the “Registrant”), that were previously registered and remain unsold on the following Registration Statements on Form S-8 (each, a “Registration Statement”, and collectively, the “Registration Statements”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”):
| | · | Registration Statement on Form S-8 (No. 333-205058), filed with the SEC on June 18, 2015, which registered the offering of an aggregate of 4,480,000 common shares, no par value, of the Registrant (“Common Shares”), consisting of (i) 3,040,000 Common Shares issuable under the Amended and Restated Equity Plan; and (ii) 1,440,000 Common Shares issuable under the 2015 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan; and |
| | | |
| | · | Registration Statement on Form S-8 (No. 333-239268), filed with the SEC on June 18, 2020, which registered the offering of an aggregate of 1,500,000 Common Shares issuable under the 2015 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. |
The Registrant intends to file a Form 15 serving as a certification of termination of registration of the Common Shares under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) pursuant to Rule 12g-4(a)(1) under the Exchange Act. The Form 15 will also serve as notice of the suspension of the Registrant’s duty to file reports pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act and Rule 15d-6 under the Exchange Act.
As a result of the termination of Exchange Act registration and the suspension of the Registrant’s reporting obligation, the Registrant will no longer be updating the information in the Registration Statements on an ongoing basis and therefore desires to terminate the offerings of the Common Shares pursuant to the Registration Statements. Accordingly, the Registrant hereby terminates the effectiveness of the Registration Statements and, in accordance with undertakings made by the Registrant in the Registration Statements to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the Common Shares that had been registered but remained unsold at the termination of the offering, removes from registration any and all Common Shares of the Registrant registered but unsold under the Registration Statements as of the date hereof.
