REMOVAL OF SECURITIES FROM REGISTRATION
Caterpillar Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Registrant”), and Caterpillar Inc. Tax Deferred Savings Plan (the “Plan”) previously filed the following Registration Statements on Form S-8 (collectively, the “Registration Statements”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”):
Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-133266), filed with the SEC on April 13, 2006, registering 12,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Registrant to be issued under the Plan, and an indeterminate amount of plan interests; and
Registration Statement on Form S-8 (333-170405), filed with the SEC on November 5, 2010, registering 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock of the Registrant to be issued under the Plan, and an indeterminate amount of plan interests.
Effective January 1, 2016, the Plan merged with and into the Caterpillar Inc. Tax Deferred Retirement Plan. Accordingly, no further offers or sales of Company Common Stock are being made through the Plan. In accordance with an undertaking made by the Registrant in the Registration Statements to remove by means of a post-effective amendment any securities that remain unsold at the termination of the offering, this Post-Effective Amendment is being filed to remove from registration the Common Stock and plan interests not heretofore sold pursuant to the Registration Statements. The Registration Statements are hereby amended, as appropriate, to reflect the deregistration of such Common Stock and plan interests.
