DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 (this “Post-Effective Amendment”) relates to the following Registration Statements on Form S-8 (each, a “Registration Statement,” and collectively, the “Registration Statements”), filed by EQRx, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Registrant”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”):

 

   

Registration Statement No. 333-262934, filed with the SEC on February 23, 2022, pertaining to the registration of (i) 21,937,965 shares of the common stock of the Registrant, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock option awards under the EQRx, Inc. 2019 Stock Option and Grant Plan, (ii) 9,752,652 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the EQRx, Inc. 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) and (iii) 83,734,988 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the EQRx, Inc. 2021 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”).

 

   

Registration Statement No. 333-269964, filed with the SEC on February 23, 2023, pertaining to the registration of (i) 24,427,460 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 2021 Plan and (ii) 4,876,326 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the ESPP.

On November 9, 2023, pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 31, 2023 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Registrant, Revolution Medicines, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Revolution Medicines”), Equinox Merger Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Revolution Medicines (“Merger Sub I”), and Equinox Merger Sub II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Revolution Medicines (“Merger Sub II”), Merger Sub I merged with and into the Registrant (the “First Merger”), with the Registrant surviving the First Merger as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Revolution Medicines (the “First Merger Surviving Corporation”), and following the First Merger, the First Merger Surviving Corporation merged with and into Merger Sub II, with Merger Sub II surviving as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Revolution Medicines (together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”).

As a result of the Mergers, the Registrant has terminated any and all offerings of its securities pursuant to the Registration Statements. In accordance with an undertaking made by the Registrant in the Registration Statements to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the securities registered under the Registration Statements that remain unsold at the termination of the offerings, the Registrant hereby removes from registration all securities of the Registrant registered but unsold under such Registration Statements, if any, as of the date hereof.

The foregoing description of the Mergers, the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the Merger Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to the Registrant’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on July 31, 2023.
