Equus II Incorporated (``Company'') has filed an application with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission''), pursuant to Section 12(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') and Rule 12d2-2(d) promulgated thereunder, to withdraw the above specified security (``Security'') from listing and registration on the American Stock Exchange, Inc. (``Amex'' or ``Exchange''). The reasons cited in the application for withdrawing the Security from listing and registration include the following: The Company's Security has been listed for trading on the Amex and, pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form 8-A which became effective on May 20, 1998, the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (``NYSE''). Trading in the Company's Security on the NYSE commenced at the opening of business on May 20, 1998, and concurrently therewith such Security was suspended from trading on the Amex. The Company has complied with Rule 18 of the Amex by filing with such Exchange a certified copy of resolutions adopted by the Company's Board of Director's authorizing the withdrawal of its Security from listing and registration on the Amex and by setting forth in detail to such Exchange the reasons for such proposed withdrawal, and the facts in support thereof. In making the decision to withdraw its Security from listing on the Amex, the Company considered the expense of maintaining a dual listing. The Exchange has informed the Company that it has no objection to the withdrawal of the Company's Security from listing and registration on the Amex. By reason of section 12(b) of the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, the Company shall continue to be obligated to file reports under Section 13 of the Act with the Commission and the NYSE. Any interested person may, on or before July 6, 1998, submit by letter to the Secretary of the Securities and Exchange Commission, 450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549, facts bearing upon whether the application has been made in accordance with the rules of the Exchange and what terms, [[Page 33421]] if any, should be imposed by the Commission for the protection of investors. The Commission, based on the information submitted to it, will issue an order granting the application after the date mentioned above, unless the Commission determines to order a hearing on the matter. For the Commission, by the Division of Market Regulation, pursuant to delegated authority. Jonathan G. Katz, Secretary. [FR Doc. 98-16246 Filed 6-17-98; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 8010-01-M
