REMOVAL OF SECURITIES FROM REGISTRATION
This Post-Effective Amendment relates to AGL Resources Inc.’s (the “Registrant”) Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-178497), filed on December 14, 2011 (the “Registration Statement”), pertaining to the Registrant’s common stock (“Common Shares”) and plan interests to be offered under the Birdsall, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan, the Nicor Companies Savings Investment Plan and the Nicor Gas Thrift Plan.
Upon the Registrant’s sale of its Tropical Shipping business on September 1, 2014, the offering of Common Shares and plan interests in the Birdsall, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan ceased. The Registrant hereby removes and withdraws from registration all Common Shares and plan interests that previously were registered with respect to the Birdsall, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan and that remained unissued at the termination of such offering.
This Post-Effective Amendment does not remove from registration any of the Common Shares or plan interests registered with respect to the Nicor Companies Savings Investment Plan, which has been merged into the AGL Resources Inc. Retirement Savings Plus Plan, or with respect to the Nicor Gas Thrift Plan.
SIGNATURE
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 478 thereunder, the Registrant has duly caused this Post-Effective Amendment to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Atlanta, State of Georgia, on June 23, 2015.
