DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES
The purpose of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-110346) (the “Registration Statement”) of Cadence Design Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Cadence” or the “Company”) is to deregister all Zero Coupon Zero Yield Senior Convertible Notes due 2023 (“Notes”) issued by Cadence on August 15, 2003 and August 27, 2003, and all shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Cadence issuable upon conversion of the Notes, and not sold pursuant to the Registration Statement prior to the date this Amendment is filed. The Registration Statement was filed pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement, dated August 15, 2003 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), by and between Cadence, on the one hand, and J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. and SG Cowen Securities Corporation as initial purchasers, on the other hand. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, Cadence agreed to use reasonable efforts to keep the Registration Statement effective with respect to the Notes and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes until the earlier of: the last date of the holding period applicable to sales of securities under Rule 144(k); the date as of which all securities have been transferred under Rule 144; or the date as of which all securities registrable thereunder have been sold pursuant to the Registration Statement. As of August 27, 2005, the last date of the holding period applicable to sales of securities under Rule 144(k) expired, and therefore Cadence is filing this Amendment to deregister all Notes and shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes and not sold pursuant to the Registration Statement prior to the date this Amendment is filed.
