DEREGISTRATION OF SHARES

Pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form S-8, file No. 333-39586 (the “Registration Statement”), which was originally filed on June 19, 2000, EasyLink Services Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Registrant”), registered 7,279,289 shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), to be offered under its MAIL.com, Inc. 2000 Stock Option Plan, MAIL.com, Inc. Supplemental 1999 Stock Option Plan, MAIL.com, Inc. Supplemental 2000 Stock Option Plan, MAIL.com, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan and Stock Option Agreements between MAIL.com, Inc. and Certain Individuals (the “Plan”).

On May 3, 2007, Internet Commerce Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Internet Commerce Corporation”), Jets Acquisition Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), and the Registrant entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) providing for the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Registrant, with the Registrant surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Internet Commerce Corporation (the “Merger”). The Merger became effective upon the filing of a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on August 20, 2007 (the “Effective Time”). Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of the Registrant’s Common Stock was converted at the Effective Time into the right to receive $5.80. As a result of the Merger, the Registrant has terminated the Plan and all offerings of its Common Stock under its existing registration statements (including the Registration Statement).

In accordance with an undertaking made by the Registrant in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the securities that remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant hereby amends the Registration Statement deregister all shares of Common Sock registered under the Registration Statement that were not sold prior to the date hereof.
