EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

SPX Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Registrant”), files these Post-Effective Amendments to deregister the remaining unissued shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), of the Registrant that were registered for issuance under the following plans and agreements under the following Registration Statements on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statements”) of the Registrant:

 

Registration Statement No. 333-109112, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on September 25, 2003 pertaining to the registration of securities of the Registrant issuable under the SPX Corporation Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) and the Options Granted Pursuant to Individual Non-Qualified Option Agreements (the “NSO Agreements”);

 

Registration Statement No. 333-61766, as filed with the Commission on May 25, 2001 pertaining to the registration of securities of the Registrant issuable under the United Dominion Industries Ltd 1999 Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan, United Dominion Industries Ltd Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan, and Stock Option Plan for Key Employees, Officers and Directors of United Dominion Industries Ltd;

 

Registration Statement No. 333-61766, as filed with the Commission on May 25, 2001 pertaining to the registration of securities of the Registrant and an indeterminate amount of plan interests issuable under the United Dominion Industries Inc. Compass Plan (the “UDI Plan”), and United Dominion Industries Inc. Compass Plan for Hourly Employees (the “UDI Hourly Plan”). The UDI Plan was merged with and into the SPX Corporation Retirement Savings and Stock Ownership Plan (the “SPX Retirement Plan”) in January 2002, at which time the assets of the UDI Plan were transferred into the SPX Retirement Plan. The UDI Hourly Plan was merged with and into the SPX Corporation Savings Plan (the “SPX Savings Plan”) in January 2002, at which time the assets of the UDI Hourly Plan were transferred into the SPX Savings Plan. The SPX Savings Plan was subsequently merged with and into the SPX Retirement Plan in July 2010, at which time the assets of the SPX Savings Plan were transferred into the SPX Retirement Plan;

 

Registration Statement No. 333-82647, as filed with the Commission on July 12, 1999 pertaining to the registration of securities of the Registrant issuable under the Options Granted Pursuant to Individual Non-Qualified Option Agreements;

 

Registration Statement No. 333-38443, as filed with the Commission on October 22, 1997 pertaining to the registration of securities of the Registrant issuable under the SPX Corporation Employee Stock Purchase Plan;

 

Registration Statement No. 333-29857, as filed with the Commission on June 24, 1997 pertaining to the registration of securities of the Registrant issuable under the Options Granted Pursuant to Individual Non-Qualified Option Agreements;

 

Registration Statement No. 333-29851, as filed with the Commission on June 23, 1997 pertaining to the registration of securities of the Registrant issuable under the SPX Corporation 1997 Non-Employee Directors’ Compensation Plan; and

 

Registration Statement No. 33-24043, as filed with the Commission on August 29, 1988 pertaining to the registration of securities of the Registrant issuable under the SPX Corporation Stock Compensation Plan and the SPX Corporation Stock Option Incentive Plan (1981).

 

On August 15, 2022, the Registrant and SPX Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“SPX HoldCo”), implemented a holding company reorganization (the “Corporate Reorganization”) pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of August 11, 2022, among the Registrant, SPX HoldCo and SPX Merger LLC, a Delaware corporation (“SPX LLC”). The Corporate Reorganization was conducted pursuant to Section 251(g) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, which provides for the formation of a holding company without a vote of the stockholders of the constituent corporation.

 

 

 

 

Pursuant to the Corporate Reorganization, the Registrant merged with and into SPX LLC, a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of SPX HoldCo and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant, with SPX LLC surviving as the successor by merger to the Registrant under Delaware law and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of SPX HoldCo (the “Merger”). Upon the effectiveness of the Merger, each share of the Registrant held immediately prior to the Merger automatically converted into a right to receive an equivalent corresponding share of SPX HoldCo stock, having the same designations, rights, powers and preferences and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions as the corresponding share of stock of the Registrant being converted. Accordingly, upon consummation of the Corporate Reorganization, the Registrant’s current stockholders became stockholders of SPX HoldCo.

 

As a result of the Corporate Reorganization, the Registrant has terminated all offerings of its common stock and all plan interests pursuant to the Registration Statements (for Registration Statement No. 333-109112, solely with respect to offerings under the ESPP and the NSO Agreements, but not with respect to offerings under the SPX Corporation 2002 Stock Compensation Plan (the “2002 Plan”)). In accordance with an undertaking made by the Registrant in the Registration Statements to remove from registration, by means of post-effective amendments, any of the securities that had been registered for issuance that remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant hereby removes from registration all such securities of the Registrant remaining unissued under the Registration Statements (for Registration Statement No. 333-109112, solely with respect to offerings under the ESPP and the NSO Agreements, but not with respect to offerings under the 2002 Plan).
