EXPLANATORY NOTE / DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES
These post-effective amendments (each a “Post-Effective Amendment” and, collectively, the “Post-Effective Amendments”) relate to the following Registration Statements on Form S-3 (each a “Registration Statement” and,
collectively, the “Registration Statements”) filed by Silvergate Capital Corporation, a Maryland corporation (the “Registrant”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”):
|
|
●
|
Registration Statement on Form S-3 (333-266541), filed with the SEC on August 4, 2022, which registered for resale up to 1,145,751 shares of the Registrant’s Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), of the
Registrant that may be offered or sold from time to time; and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Registration Statement on Form S-3 (333-252258), filed with the SEC on January 20, 2021, as amended and replaced in its entirety by Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 filed with the SEC on July 28, 2021, which registered an indeterminate
number of shares of Common Stock, shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, debt securities, warrants, units and depository shares of the Registrant that may be offered or sold from time to time.
|
In light of the Registrant’s inability to file the reports required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, on a timely basis and the delisting of the Common Stock from the New York Stock Exchange, the
Registrant has terminated any and all offerings of securities registered pursuant to the Registration Statements. Accordingly, the Registrant, by filing these Post-Effective Amendments, hereby terminates the effectiveness of the Registration
Statements, and, in accordance with an undertaking made by the Registrant in Part II, Item 17 of each of the Registration Statements to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any securities that had been registered for
issuance but remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant hereby removes from registration any and all securities registered but which remain unsold under the Registration Statements as of the date hereof.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-3 and
has duly caused these Post-Effective Amendments to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of La Jolla, State of California, on December 1, 2023.
