EXPLANATORY NOTE
Mercury Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this post-effective amendment to deregister certain of the securities originally registered pursuant to the registration statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-217735), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 5, 2017 (the “Registration Statement”) with respect to shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), thereby registered for issuance under the Company’s Amended and Restated 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2005 Plan”). An aggregate of 1,100,000 shares of Common Stock were registered for issuance under the 2005 Plan pursuant to the Registration Statement.
On October 24, 2018, the Company’s shareholders approved the Company’s 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”), which replaced the 2005 Plan. Following the approval of the 2018 Plan, no future awards were made under the 2005 Plan. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock reserved and available for issuance under the 2018 Plan includes the shares underlying any grants previously made under the 2005 Plan that are forfeited, canceled, or terminated (other than by exercise) from and after the effective date of the 2018 Plan. The total number of shares available for grant under the 2005 Plan as of the effective date of the 2018 Plan was 710,687 shares, and such number of shares were deregistered pursuant to Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement filed on November 30, 2018. Additional shares (the “Additional Carried Forward Shares”) have been included in the shares reserved for issuance under the 2018 Plan as a result of the forfeiture, cancellation, or termination (other than by exercise) of previously-made grants under the 2005 Plan. The Additional Carried Forward Shares included 184,019 shares registered under the Registration Statement, which were deregistered pursuant to Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 to the Registration Statement filed on November 6, 2019, 24,891 shares registered under the Registration Statement, which were deregistered pursuant to Post-Effective Amendment No. 3 to the Registration Statement filed on November 12, 2020, 28,775 shares registered under the Registration Statement, which were deregistered pursuant to Post-Effective Amendment No. 4 to the Registration Statement filed on November 9, 2021, and an additional 1,505 shares registered under the Registration Statement, which are being deregistered hereby.
Contemporaneously with the filing of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 5 to the Registration Statement, the Company is filing a registration statement on Form S-8 to register an additional 1,505 shares of Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the 2018 Plan which are hereby deregistered from the 2005 Plan.
