DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

These Post-Effective Amendments (these “Post-Effective Amendments”) relate to the following Registration Statements on Form S-3 (collectively, the “Registration Statements”) filed by Berkshire Grey, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Registrant”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”):

As previously disclosed, on March 24, 2023, the Registrant entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among SoftBank Group Corp., a Japanese kabushiki kaisha (“SoftBank”), Backgammon Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of SoftBank (“Merger Sub”), and the Registrant, pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Registrant (the “Merger”), with the Registrant surviving the Merger as a subsidiary of SoftBank. On July 20, 2023, SoftBank completed its acquisition of the Registrant.

As a result of the completion of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the Merger, the Registrant has terminated any and all offerings of its securities pursuant to the Registration Statements. In accordance with the undertakings made by the Registrant in the Registration Statements to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any securities that had been registered for issuance but remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant hereby removes from registration any and all securities of the Registrant registered but unsold under the Registration Statements as of the date hereof.
