Re: Rule 477 Letter of Withdrawal - Tanger Factory Outlet Centers, Inc.
and Tanger Properties Limited Partnership
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Sir or Madam:
Pursuant to Rule 477 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, we hereby request to withdraw Registration Statement on Form S-3 and
Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 to Form S-3, file no. 333-92448/333-92448-01.
No securities were sold in connection with Registration Statement on Form S-3
and Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 to Form S-3, file no.
333-92448/333-92448-01.
The Registration Statement on Form S-3 and Post-Effective Amendment No.
2 to Form S-3, file no. 333-92448/333-92448-01, was filed erroneously. We
had intended to file a Post-Effective Amendment to the existing registration
statement, not a new registration statement.
Thank you very much.
Truly yours,
TANGER FACTORY OUTLET CENTERS, INC.
