EXPLANATORY NOTE
DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES
This Post-Effective Amendment relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Registration Statement Nos. 333-165884 and 333-171449) (the
Registration Statement) of Midatech Pharma US Inc. (the Company), formerly known as DARA Biosciences, Inc. (DARA), registering shares of the Companys common stock issuable upon the conversion of the
Companys Series A Preferred Stock and the exercise of warrants, which was originally declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on December 27, 2010. Additional securities were registered under the
Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 462(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, on December 29, 2010.
On December 4,
2015, Midatech Pharma PLC (Midatech) completed its acquisition of the Company pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 3, 2015 (the Merger Agreement), by and among Midatech, Merlin Acquisition Sub,
Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Midatech (Merger Sub), Duke Acquisition Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Midatech (Secondary Merger Sub), DARA and Shareholder Representative Services, LLC, solely as representative
of the stockholders of DARA (the Stockholder Representative). Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into DARA (the First Step Merger), with DARA being the surviving corporation of the First Step
Merger and a wholly owned subsidiary of Midatech (the Surviving Corporation). Immediately following the First Step Merger, the Surviving Corporation merged with and into Secondary Merger Sub, with Secondary Merger Sub surviving as a
wholly owned subsidiary of Midatech under the name Midatech Pharma US Inc. (the Second Step Merger, and together with the First Step Merger, the Mergers).
Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of DARA common stock was converted into
the right to receive, without interest, certain consideration, which included 0.272 ordinary shares of Midatech, nominal value 0.0005p (the Ordinary Shares). All Ordinary Shares delivered to the holders of DARA common stock are in the
form of American Depositary Receipts, each representing the right to receive two Ordinary Shares.
As a result of the Mergers, the Company
has terminated all offerings of its securities pursuant to its existing registration statements filed with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including the Registration Statement. In accordance with undertakings made by the
Company in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the securities that had been registered that remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Company hereby removes and withdraws
from registration all securities registered pursuant to the Registration Statement that remain unsold.
