DEREGISTRATION OF UNSOLD SECURITIES
Under Registration Statement on Form F-3 (File No. 333-88248) (the “Registration Statement”), Commtouch Software Ltd. (the “Company”) previously registered up to an aggregate of 7,095,886 of the Company’s Ordinary Shares, NIS 0.05 nominal value per share (2,365,295 shares following a reverse split at a ratio of one for three Ordinary Shares on January 2, 2008, NIS 0.15 nominal value per share) (the “Ordinary Shares”), to be sold by certain selling security holders of the Company.
Pursuant to the Company’s undertaking in Item 10 of Part II of the Registration Statement, the Company intends to remove from registration under the Registration Statement, including all amendments and exhibits thereto, the unsold portion of Ordinary Shares registered thereon. The Ordinary Shares were issued under a Ordinary Shares and Warrants Purchase Agreement entered into by the Company with such security holders, and were also to be issued by way of exercise of warrants issued in connection with said agreement. All of the Ordinary Shares were registered on the Registration Statement to fulfill a contractual obligation. This obligation further required the Company to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement until the earlier of a) the date that all of the Ordinary Shares initially issued to the security holders and issued upon exercise of warrants were sold pursuant to such Registration Statement b) the date the security holders received an opinion from counsel to the Company, which counsel was reasonably acceptable to the Company, that such Ordinary Shares may be sold under the provisions of Rule 144 without limitation as to volume, c) the date that all such Ordinary Shares were otherwise transferred to persons who may trade such shares without restriction under the Securities Act, and the Company delivered a new certificate or other evidence of ownership for such Ordinary Shares not bearing a restrictive legend or d) eighteen (18) months from the effective date of the Registration Statement. This period has expired.
Accordingly, the Company hereby de-registers all Ordinary Shares registered pursuant to the Registration Statement that as of effectiveness of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 remain unsold thereunder.
