EXPLANATORY NOTE/DEREGISTRATION OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES

The Registrant is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 to Registration Statement (No. 333-127296) on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”), which has been previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, originally covering 9,897,201 shares of Class A common stock of American Tower Corporation to be issued under the SpectraSite, Inc. 2003 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).

In accordance with an undertaking made by the Registrant in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the securities registered under the Registration Statement that have not been sold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant hereby amends the Registration Statement to deregister any remaining securities registered and unsold under the Registration Statement. The securities are being removed from registration because the Registrant no longer offers or sells the securities under the Plan referenced above and in the Registration Statement.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing this Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Boston, Commonwealth of Massachusetts, on this 22nd day of May, 2015.
