DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES
This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 (the "Post-Effective Amendment") relates to Registration Statement No. 333-254371 on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement"), which was filed by Sun Country Airlines Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Sun Country") with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 16, 2021 to register (i) 5,893,704 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Sun Country ("Sun Country Common Stock") issuable pursuant to the SCA Acquisition Holdings, LLC Equity Incentive Plan, and (ii) 3,600,000 shares of Sun Country Common Stock issuable pursuant to the Sun Country Airlines Holdings, Inc. 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan.
On May 13, 2026, pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 11, 2026, by and among Sun Country, Allegiant Travel Company, a Nevada corporation ("Allegiant"), Mirage Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Allegiant ("Merger Sub 1"), and Sawdust Merger Sub, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Allegiant ("Merger Sub 2"), Merger Sub 1 merged with and into Sun Country (the "First Merger"), with Sun Country surviving the First Merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Allegiant and immediately following the First Merger, Sun Country merged with and into Merger Sub 2 (the "Second Merger" and, together with the First Merger, the "Mergers"), with Merger Sub 2 surviving the Second Merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Allegiant, under the name "Sun Country Airlines Holdings, LLC".
As a result of the Mergers, any and all offerings of securities registered pursuant to the Registration Statement have been terminated. In accordance with undertakings made by Sun Country in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the securities registered under the Registration Statement that remain unsold at the termination of the offering, Merger Sub 2, as successor to Sun Country, hereby removes from registration all such securities registered under the Registration Statement but unsold as of the date hereof. The Registration Statement is hereby amended, as appropriate, to reflect the deregistration of such securities, and Merger Sub 2, as successor to Sun Country, hereby terminates the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.
