    DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

     

    These Post-Effective Amendments (“Post-Effective Amendments”) filed by Olink Holding AB (publ) (the “Registrant”) relate to the following Registration Statements on Form S-8 (each, a “Registration Statement” and collectively, the “Registration Statements”), which have been previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), to deregister any and all of the Registrant’s common shares, quota value SEK 2.431906612623020 per share (collectively, the “Common Shares”) registered but unsold or otherwise unissued under each such Registration Statement as of the date hereof:

     

    ·Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-254844), which was filed with the SEC on March 30, 2021.

     

    ·Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-264181), which was filed with the SEC on April 7, 2022.

     

    ·Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-271290), which was filed with the SEC on April 17, 2023.

     

    ·Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-278846), which was filed with the SEC on April 19, 2024.

     

    On October 17, 2023, the Registrant entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Thermo Fisher”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Orion Acquisition AB, a private limited liability company organized under the laws of Sweden (“Buyer”) and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Thermo Fisher, commenced a cash tender offer (the “Offer”) on October 31, 2023 to purchase all of the Registrant’s outstanding Common Shares and all of the outstanding American Depositary Shares, each representing one Common Share (the “ADSs” and, together with the Common Shares, the “Offer Securities”), in exchange for $26.00 per Common Share, representing $26.00 per ADS, in cash, without interest (such amount per Common Share and ADS paid pursuant to the Offer in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, the “Offer Consideration”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

     

    The Offer expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 9, 2024 (such time, the “Expiration Time”). On July 10, 2024 (the “Effective Date”), Thermo Fisher confirmed that the Minimum Tender Condition (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) was met, that Buyer would purchase all of the Offer Securities that were tendered in the Offer and that, upon settlement of the Offer, Buyer would directly or indirectly acquire or control at least one Common Share more than 90% of the then-outstanding Common Shares (excluding Common Shares held by Olink or any of its subsidiaries).

     

    In accordance with Rule 14d-11 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), Buyer has commenced a subsequent offering period (the “Subsequent Offering Period”). The Subsequent Offering Period will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York time, on July 16, 2024.

     

    Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Buyer will submit a request to the Olink board of directors to commence a process pursuant to Swedish law for the compulsory redemption of any outstanding Offer Securities held by shareholders who did not tender their securities in the Offer to obtain 100% ownership of the Registrant by Buyer (the “Compulsory Redemption”) in accordance with Rule 13(e)-3(g)(1) under the Exchange Act and the applicable laws of Sweden.

     

    As a result of the Offer and in connection with the Compulsory Redemption, the Registrant has terminated any and all offerings of its outstanding securities pursuant to existing registration statements, including the Registration Statements. In accordance with the undertakings made by the Registrant in the Registration Statements to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the Registrant’s Common Shares that remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant hereby removes from registration, by means of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement, any and all Common Shares registered under this Registration Statement that remain unsold as of the Effective Date.
