Re: ProBusiness Services, Inc.
Registration Statement on Form 8-A
Ladies and Gentlemen:
On behalf of ProBusiness Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), we respectfully request that the Company's Registration Statement on
Form 8-A be withdrawn as of the date hereof. The Company's request is based on
the fact that its Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-23189) has
not yet been declared effective. The Company intends to file a new Registration
Statement on Form 8-A at or near the time its Registration Statement on Form S-1
is declared effective.
If you have any questions regarding this matter, please call me at (415)
493-9300.
Very truly yours,
WILSON SONSINI GOODRICH & ROSATI
Professional Corporation
