BELL COMMUNICATIONS RESEARCH SAVINGS PLAN FOR SALARIED
EMPLOYEES
The sole purpose of this Post Effective Amendment No. 1 is to
deregister the remaining Units of Participation ("Units") sponsored by Bell
Communications Research, Inc. ("Bellcore") for the Bell Communications Research
Savings Plan for Salaried Employees (the "Bellcore Plan"). The Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission") had expressly authorized the use of Form
S-8 for the registration of the Units and a Form S-8 with respect to the
Bellcore Plan was filed with the Commission on April 30, 1991 (the "Registration
Statement").
Bellcore, previously owned by seven regional telephone holding
companies (the "Parent Companies"), was acquired by Science Applications
International Corporation ("SAIC") during 1997 (the "Acquisition"). SAIC filed a
Registration Statement on Form S-8 with the Commission on August 26, 1997
(Registration No. 333-34335) (the "SAIC Form S-8") with respect to an amended
version of the Bellcore Plan (the "Amended Bellcore Plan").
Prior to the filing of the SAIC Form S-8, a no-action letter
request dated June 18, 1997 was filed with the Commission on behalf of SAIC by
Baker & McKenzie requesting that the Commission allow SAIC to file the SAIC Form
S-8 and permit the SAIC Form S-8 to become effective prior to the consummation
of the Acquisition thereby allowing SAIC the opportunity to inform Bellcore
employees (including certain former employees of Bellcore) (the "Bellcore
Employees") of the addition of options to the Bellcore Plan whereby the Bellcore
Employees could purchase SAIC stock (the "No-Action Request"). As further
indicated in the No-Action Request, the Bellcore Plan afforded Bellcore Employee
participants an option to elect to invest portions of their salaries in various
alternative investments one of which included the option for the participant to
allocate a portion of such participant's salary in the common stock of the
Parent Companies. Under the Amended Bellcore Plan, the option to elect to invest
in the Parent Companies' stock would no longer be available upon consummation of
the Acquisition. However, such option was being replaced with the investment
option to purchase SAIC stock. The SAIC Form S-8 covering the Amended Bellcore
Plan became effective on August 26, 1997.
Under this Registration Statement, Bellcore registered the Units
in an indeterminate amount. By this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1, Bellcore
hereby terminates this Registration Statement and removes from registration
Units which remain unsold as of the date hereof.
