EXPLANATORY NOTE: DEREGISTRATION OF UNSOLD SECURITIES

 

On September 16, 2011, Vaughan Foods, Inc. (the “Company”) completed the previously announced transaction with Reser’s fine Foods, Inc. (“Reser’s”), whereby the Company became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Reser’s as a result of a merger with a wholly-owned subsidiary of Reser’s in which the Company was the surviving entity. As a consequence, the Company has terminated all offerings of its securities under its existing registration statements, including the registration statement on Form S-1 (SEC File No. 333-137861) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 6, 2006, as amended and declared effective on June 27, 2007 (the “Registration Statement”).

Pursuant to the undertaking of the Company as required by Item 512(a)(3) of Regulation S-K, the Company is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement to deregister all remaining unsold securities under the Registration Statement that would otherwise have remained available for sale under the Registration Statement as of the date hereof.
