RE: REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM 10-12B - NEW CERIDIAN CORPORATION
CIK NUMBER - 1124887
Dear Sir/Madam:
On behalf New Ceridian Corporation, New Ceridian respectfully requests the
withdrawal of our Registration Statement on Form 10-12B, as filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on September 27, 2000. In the absence of this
withdrawal request, pursuant to Section 12(g)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended, this Registration Statement on Form 10-12B would
automatically go effective by lapse of time within 60 days of September 27,
2000. As the Commission has not completed its review and clearance of this
registration statement before the expiration of this 60 day period, the
Commission has advised us to withdraw this Registration Statement on Form 10-12B
and to refile a new Registration Statement on Form 10-12B that is responsive to
the Commission's remaining comments. We currently anticipate refiling a new
Registration Statement on Form 10-12B with the Commission in December 2000 that
is responsive to the Commission's remaining comments.
If you have any questions regarding this request, please call me at
(952)853-4077.
Very truly yours,
/s/ William E. McDonald
William E. McDonald
VICE PRESIDENT, ASSOCIATE GENERAL COUNSEL AND DEPUTY SECRETARY
