DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES
 
On January 18, 2008, Ener1 Inc. (“Ener1”) filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-148743) (the “Registration Statement”), as amended on March 21, 2008 and supplemented on June 20, 2008, registering the sale, from time to time, of up to 9,092,857 shares of Ener1's common stock (the “Common Stock”) on behalf of the selling shareholders named in the Registration Statement. The filing of the Registration Statement was made pursuant to a registration rights agreement between the Registrant and the initial purchasers of the shares (the “Registration Rights Agreement”).
 
Ener1 has determined that it is no longer required under the Registration Rights Agreement to register the resale of the shares of Common Stock registered under the Registration Statement. Ener1 hereby amends the Registration Statement by deregistering 17,468 shares remaining unsold and files this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to remove all such unsold shares from registration and to terminate the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.

 

 
SIGNATURE
