These Post-Effective Amendments are being filed to deregister unsold securities of ITC Holdings Corp., a Michigan corporation (the “Registrant”) that were registered on the following Registration Statements on Form S-8 (each, a “Registration Statement”, and collectively, the “Registration Statements”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission:

·                  Registration Statement on Form S-8 (No. 333-204888), filed on June 11, 2015, which registered the offering of an aggregate of 1,000,000 Shares.

 

The Registrant entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of February 9, 2016, originally by and among the Registrant, Fortis Inc. (“Fortis”), FortisUS Inc. (“FortisUS”) and Element Acquisition Sub Inc. (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Registrant (the “Merger”), with the Registrant surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Fortis, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement. On April 20, 2016, FortisUS assigned its rights, interests, duties and obligations under the Merger Agreement to ITC Investment Holdings Inc., but continues to be liable for its duties and obligations under the Merger Agreement. The Merger became effective on October 14, 2016.

 

In connection with the Merger, the offerings of the securities pursuant to the Registration Statements have been terminated. Accordingly, the Registrant hereby terminates the effectiveness of the Registration Statements and, in accordance with undertakings contained in the Registration Statements to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities that had been registered but remained unsold at the termination of the offering, removes from registration any and all securities of the Registrant registered but unsold under the Registration Statements as of the date hereof.
