DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

This Post-Effective Amendment (the “Amendment”) relates to the following Registration Statements filed on Form S-8 (collectively, the “Registration Statements”):

 

   

Registration Statement No. 333-156874 registering 2,497,950 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of Danvers Bancorp, Inc. (“Danvers”).

 

   

Registration Statement No. 333-148592 registering 500,000 shares of Common Stock.

On January 20, 2011, Danvers entered into that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and between Danvers and People’s United Financial, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“People’s United”). On July 1, 2011, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Danvers merged with and into People’s United (the “Merger”), with People’s United continuing as the surviving corporation. Simultaneously with the effective time of the Merger, Danvers’s subsidiary bank, Danversbank, merged with and into People’s United’s subsidiary bank, People’s United Bank, with People’s United Bank continuing as the surviving entity. As a result of the Merger, each outstanding share of Common Stock (other than shares to be cancelled in accordance with the Merger Agreement) was cancelled and converted into the right to receive $23.00 in cash or 1.624 shares of People’s United common stock for each share of Common Stock, subject to customary pro ration provisions.

As a result of the Merger, Danvers has terminated any offering of securities pursuant to the Registration Statements. In accordance with an undertaking made by Danvers in each of the Registration Statements to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the securities that had been registered for issuance that remain unsold and unissued at the termination of the offering, People’s United, as successor to Danvers, hereby removes from registration all of such securities of Danvers which remain registered but unsold and unissued under the Registration Statements, if any.
