DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES


This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 (this “Post-Effective Amendment”) relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-3, Registration No. 333-43431, as amended (the “Registration Statement”) pertaining to the registration of up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Telular Corporation (the “Company”), which was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on December 30, 1997.


On April 29, 2013, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with ACP Tower Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Parent”), and ACP Tower Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), each of which is an entity controlled by Avista Capital Partners, pursuant to which Merger Sub merged with and into the Company, and the Company became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent on June 24, 2013 (the “Merger”).


In connection with the Merger, the Company has terminated any offering of the Company’s securities pursuant to its existing registration statements, including the Registration Statement. In accordance with an undertaking made by the Company in Part II of the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the securities that had been registered for issuance that remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Company hereby removes from registration all of such securities of the Company registered under the Registration Statement that remain unsold as of the date of this Post-Effective Amendment.
