Deregistration of Securities

This Post-Effective Amendment  (this “Amendment”) relates to each of the following Registration Statements of Ralcorp Holdings, Inc., a Missouri corporation (the “Registrant”) on Form S-8 (collectively, the “Registration Statements”):

 
·  
Registration Statement No. 333-20879, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 31, 1997 and amended on June 27, 2002, registering the offer and sale of 2,900,000 shares of Registrant’s Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) and $1,000,000 in deferred compensation obligations of the Registrant, issuable pursuant to the Amended and Restated Ralcorp Holdings, Inc. Incentive Stock Plan and the Ralcorp Holdings, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan for Key Employees.

 
·  
Registration Statement No. 333-20881, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 31, 1997, registering the offer and sale of 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock and $1,000,000 in deferred compensation obligations of the Registrant, issuable pursuant to the Ralcorp Holdings, Inc. Savings Investment Plan and the Ralcorp Holdings, Inc. Executive Savings Investment Plan, and an indeterminate amount of interests to be offered or sold pursuant to the Ralcorp Holdings, Inc. Savings Investment Plan.

 
·  
Registration Statement No. 333-91328, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 27, 2002 and amended on March 29, 2007, registering the offer and sale of 2,135,136 shares of Common Stock and $7,000,000 in deferred compensation obligations, issuable pursuant to the Ralcorp Holdings, Inc. Amended and Restated 2002 Incentive Stock Plan and the Ralcorp Holdings, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan for Key Employees.

 
·  
Registration Statement No. 333-141669, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2007, registering the offer and sale of 1,979,507 shares of Common Stock and $2,578,731 in deferred compensation obligations, issuable pursuant to the Amended and Restated Ralcorp Holdings, Inc. 2007 Incentive Stock Plan and the Ralcorp Holdings, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan for Key Employees.

This Amendment is being filed to deregister any and all unsold securities registered pursuant to, and to terminate the effectiveness of, each of the Registration Statements.  On January 29, 2013, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of November 26, 2012 by and among the Registrant, ConAgra Foods, Inc. (“ConAgra Foods”) and Phoenix Merger Sub Inc. (“Merger Sub”), Merger Sub merged with and into the Registrant (the “Merger”), and the Registrant became a wholly owned subsidiary of ConAgra Foods.

As a result of the Merger, the offerings pursuant to the Registration Statements have been terminated.  In accordance with undertakings made by the Registrant in the Registration Statements to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any and all of the securities which remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant hereby amends the Registration Statements by deregistering shares of Common Stock registered under the Registration Statements in the amounts as set forth above.
