Commission File No. 333-334400 Application for Withdrawal
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Pursuant to Rule 477(a) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, ChannelPoint, Inc. (the "Registrant") hereby applies for an order
granting the immediate withdrawal of its Registration Statement on Form S-1,
together with all exhibits and amendments thereto, Commission File No.
333-334400 (collectively, the "Registration Statement"). The Registration
Statement was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Commission") on March 28, 2000.
Pursuant to the Registration Statement, the Registrant proposed to register
shares of its Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share (the "Shares"), for
issuance to the public with a proposed maximum offering price of $75,000,000.
Based upon changed circumstances regarding the securities markets, the
Registrant has determined at this time not to pursue the initial public offering
of equity securities pursuant to the Registration Statement. Furthermore, no
securities have been sold under the Registration Statement.
Accordingly, we request an order granting the withdrawal of the Registration
Statement be issued by the Commission as soon as possible.
If you have any questions regarding the foregoing application for withdrawal,
please contact James C.T. Linfield or Brent D. Fassett of Cooley Godward LLP,
legal counsel to the Registrant in connection with the Registration Statement,
at (303) 546-4000.
Sincerely,
ChannelPoint, Inc.
/s/ Kenneth E. Hollen
President and Chief Executive Officer
