DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES
 
This Post-Effective Amendment No. 3 to Form S-1 (this “Amendment”) relates to Registration Statement No. 333-187927, originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 12, 2013 (the “Registration Statement”), by Tribute Pharmaceuticals Canada Inc., an Ontario corporation (the “Registrant”). The Registration Statement registered for resale an aggregate of 22,725,000 common shares of the Registrant, no par value (the “Securities”), by the selling securityholders named therein.  On May 22, 2013, the Registrant filed Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement with the SEC, and on June 14, 2013, the Registrant filed Amendment No. 2 to the Registration Statement with the SEC. The Registration Statement, as amended, was declared effective on June 19, 2013. This Amendment is being filed to deregister all unsold Securities registered pursuant to the Registration Statement, if any.
 
On June 8, 2015, the Registrant, POZEN Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Pozen”), Aralez Pharmaceuticals plc, a public limited company formed under the laws of Ireland (formerly known as Aguono Limited, a private limited company formed under the laws of Ireland, and subsequently renamed Aralez Pharmaceuticals Limited prior to its re-registration as a public limited company) (“Former Parent”), Aralez Pharmaceuticals Holdings Limited, a private limited company formed under the laws of Ireland (formerly known as Trafwell Limited) (“Holdings”), ARLZ US Acquisition Corp., a corporation formed under the laws of the State of Delaware (“Former US Merger Sub”), and ARLZ CA Acquisition Corp., a corporation formed under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada (“Can Merger Sub”), entered into the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Arrangement (“Agreement”). The Agreement was subsequently amended by Amendment No. 1, dated as of August 19, 2015, by and among the Registrant, Former Parent, Holdings, Former US Merger Sub, ARLZ US Acquisition II Corp., a corporation formed under the laws of the State of Delaware (“US Merger Sub”), Can Merger Sub and Pozen (“Amendment No. 1”), and by Amendment No. 2, dated as of December 7, 2015, by and among the Registrant, Former Parent, Holdings, Aralez Pharmaceuticals Inc., a corporation formed under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada (“Parent”), US Merger Sub, Can Merger Sub and Pozen (“Amendment No. 2” and, together with the Agreement and Amendment No. 1, the “Merger Agreement”).

In order to effect the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, US Merger Sub, an indirect subsidiary of Parent, will be merged with and into Pozen (the “Merger”). Pozen will be the surviving corporation and, through the Merger, will become an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. The acquisition of Pozen will be effected under Delaware law. In accordance with the Merger Agreement, immediately preceding the Merger, Can Merger Sub and the Registrant will amalgamate by way of a court approved plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement” and together with the Merger, the “Merger Transactions”). Upon completion of the Arrangement, the separate legal existence of the Registrant and Can Merger Sub will cease, and the Registrant and Can Merger Sub will continue as one corporation (“Amalco”), with the property of the Registrant and Can Merger Sub becoming the property of Amalco. Upon completion of the Arrangement, the Registrant (as Amalco) will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.

In connection with the consummation of the Merger Transactions, the Registrant is terminating all offerings of its securities pursuant to its existing registration statements, including the Registration Statement.  In accordance with undertakings made by the Registrant in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the Securities that have not been sold by the holders of such Securities through the Registration Statement, the Registrant hereby amends the Registration Statement to remove from registration the Securities registered but unsold under the Registration Statement, if any.

The foregoing description of the Merger Transactions, the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on June 12, 2015 (with respect to the Agreement), and Exhibit 2.1 and Exhibit 2.2 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on December 8, 2015 (with respect to Amendment No. 1 and Amendment No. 2, respectively) and is incorporated herein by reference.
