In connection with the closing of the merger between rue21, inc. (the “Company”) and Rhodes Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), the Company notified Nasdaq (“Nasdaq”) on October 10, 2013 that each outstanding share of common stock, par value $.001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) was cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive $42.00 per share in cash, without interest (except for (i) shares owned by Rhodes Holdco, Inc. (“Parent”), Merger Sub, the Company or any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent or the Company, and in each case not held on behalf of third parties (ii) shares as otherwise agreed to in writing before the effective time of the Merger between Parent or its affiliates and the holder of such shares, and (iii) shares owned by shareholders who did not vote in favor of adoption of the Merger Agreement or consented thereto in writing and who have properly demanded and not withdrawn a demand for appraisal) and requested that Nasdaq file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) an application on Form 25 to report that the shares of Common Stock are no longer listed on Nasdaq. On October 10, Nasdaq filed the application on Form 25 with the SEC to delist the Common Stock. The Company intends to file with the SEC post-effective amendments to the Company’s Form S-8 registration statement with respect to the unsold shares, requesting that the unsold shares be removed from the registration statement. In addition, the Company intends to file with the SEC a certification and notice of termination on Form 15 with respect to the Common Stock, requesting that the Common Stock be deregistered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and that the reporting obligations of the Company with respect to the Common Stock under the Exchange Act be suspended.
