EXPLANATORY NOTE
DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES
This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form S-1 Registration Statement relates to the Registration Statement (File No. 333-195565) (the “Original Registration Statement”) of Kitara Media Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on June 4, 2014, which registered shares of the Company’s common stock for resale, from time to time, on behalf of certain selling shareholders.
On January 28, 2015, the Company consummated the transactions contemplated by (i) the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of October 10, 2014, by and among the Company, Kitara Holdco Corp. (now known as Propel Media, Inc.) (“Holdco”), which was previously a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and Kitara Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), which was previously a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco, and (ii) the Unit Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”), dated as of October 10, 2014 and amended as of December 23, 2014, by and among the Company, Holdco, Future Ads LLC (“Future Ads”) and the former members of Future Ads (the “Members”).
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco. In the Merger, each outstanding share of the Company’s common stock was converted into one share of Holdco common stock. Immediately following the Merger and as part of a single integrated transaction, pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Members exchanged all of the outstanding Future Ads limited liability company interests for cash, shares of Holdco common stock and the right to receive certain additional payments (the “Exchange”). Upon the closing of the Merger and Exchange, Holdco became the new public company and the Company and Future Ads became wholly-owned subsidiaries of Holdco.
As a result of the Merger and Exchange, offerings pursuant to the Original Registration Statement have terminated. The Company is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form S-1 Registration Statement to terminate the effectiveness of the Original Registration Statement and remove from registration any and all securities of the Company previously registered but unsold under the Original Registration Statement as of the effective time of the Merger and Exchange (the “Shares”), in accordance with the undertakings made by the Company in Part II of the Original Registration Statement to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered that remain unsold at the termination of the offering. The Shares are hereby deregistered.
