DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES
This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File Number 333-267721) filed by Salem Media Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the Company) and the additional registrants named in the table of additional registrants above (together with the Company, the Registrants), with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on October 3, 2022, as amended (the Registration Statement), which registered (i) up to $40,000,000 in the aggregate of any combination of the following securities: shares of the Companys Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the Class A Common Stock), shares of the Companys preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, depositary shares, debt securities, warrants, purchase contracts, units, and guarantees; and (ii) for resale up to 1,000,000 shares in the aggregate of the Class A Common Stock held by the selling stockholders named therein.
On December 29, 2023, the Company announced that it notified The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (Nasdaq) of the Companys decision to voluntarily delist its Class A Common Stock from the Nasdaq Global Market. On January 8, 2024, the Company filed a Notification of Removal From Listing And Registration on Form 25 with the SEC to delist the Class A Common Stock from Nasdaq and to deregister the Class A Common Stock under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). The Company intends to file a Certification
and Notice of Termination of Registration on Form 15 with the SEC requesting the termination of registration of the Class A Common Stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and the suspension of the Companys reporting obligations under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act. In connection with the Companys voluntary decision to delist and deregister, the Company has terminated any and all offerings pursuant to the Registration Statement. Accordingly, the filing of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 is made pursuant to an undertaking made by the Registrants in Part II of the Registration Statement to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any securities that had been registered for issuance but remain unsold at the termination of the offering. The Registrants, by filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1, hereby remove from registration any and all securities registered but unsold under the Registration Statement as of the date hereof. The Registration Statement is hereby amended, as appropriate, to reflect the deregistration of such securities.
