· Registration Statement No. 333-162394, filed on October 8, 2009, registering the offer and sale of 2,800,000 of the Registrant’s Shares, issuable pursuant to the Ruby Tuesday, Inc. 2003 Stock Incentive Plan;

On December 21, 2017, pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 16, 2017, by and among RTI Holding Company, LLC (“RTIH”), RTI Merger Sub, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of RTIH (“Merger Sub”), and the Registrant, Merger Sub merged with and into the Registrant, with the Registrant continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of RTIH (the “Merger”).
At the effective time of the Merger, each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger (other than any shares held by the Registrant, RTIH, Merger Sub, any other wholly-owned subsidiary of RTIH or the Registrant, or any stockholder who properly demanded and did not validly withdraw dissenters’ rights in accordance with Georgia law) was automatically converted into the right to receive $2.40 in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes.
In addition, on December 22, 2017, the New York Stock Exchange filed a Form 25 to delist the Registrant’s Shares. The Registrant intends to file Form 15 to terminate registration under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and its duty to file reports under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act.
As a result of the Merger, the Registrant has terminated any and all offerings of its securities pursuant to the Registration Statements. Accordingly, the Registrant hereby terminates the effectiveness of each Registration Statement and, in accordance with an undertaking made by the Registrant in Part II of each Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any securities that had been registered for issuance but remain unsold at the termination of the offering, removes from registration any and all securities of the Registrant registered but unsold under the Registration Statements as of the effective time of the Merger.
