EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

 

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-8 (this “Registration Statement”) is being filed by LiveRamp Holdings, Inc. (the “Registrant”) for the sole purpose of correcting the number of shares registered under the Habu, Inc. 2018 Stock Plan (the “Plan”) on the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-277604) that was filed by the Registrant on March 1, 2024 (the “Original Registration Statement”) by reducing the number of aggregate shares registered thereon by 2,417,283. The registration fee was paid by the Registrant in full in connection with the filing of the Original Registration Statement.

 

Accordingly, the Registrant hereby amends the fee table in the Original Registration Statement to reflect that (i) 699,335 shares of common stock, par value $0.10 per share, are registered pursuant to the Plan, (ii) the maximum aggregate offering price is $24,917,306, and (iii) the amount of registration fee is $3,677.79. Other than as set forth above, there are no other changes being made to the Original Registration Statement.

 

This Registration Statement shall not affect the remaining shares of common stock registered pursuant to the Original Registration Statement, and the effectiveness of the Original Registration Statement as to the 699,335 shares of common stock issuable under the Plan shall continue unaffected by this Registration Statement.

 

The Original Registration Statement remains in effect in all other respects.

  (3) Pursuant to this Registration Statement and as further set forth in the Explanatory Note to this Registration Statement, this Registration Statement is amending and restating the Calculation of Filing Fee Table set forth in the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-277604) that was filed by the Registrant on March 1, 2024 (the “Original  Registration Statement”) solely to reflect the correct number of shares being registered under the Habu, Inc. 2018 Stock Plan, the maximum aggregate offering price, and the amount of registration fee, which numbers had previously been included in error. The registration fee was previously paid in full.
  (4) Estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee pursuant to Rules 457(c) and 457(h), based on the average of the high and low prices of the Registrant’s Common Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on February 28, 2024.
  (5) Rounded to the nearest penny. Amount previously paid in connection with the filing of the Original Registration Statement.
