SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
Issuer Delisting; Notice of Application to Withdraw From Listing
and Registration; (ARM Financial Group, Inc., Class A Convertible
Common Stock, $.01 Par Value) File No. 1-12294
June 4, 1998.
ARM Financial Group, Inc. (``Company'') has filed an application
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission''), pursuant
to Section 12(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') and
Rule 12d2-2(d) promulgated thereunder, to withdraw the above specified
Security (``Security'') from listing and registration on the American
Stock Exchange, Inc. (``Amex'' or ``Exchange'').
The reasons cited in the application for withdrawing the Security
from listing and registration include the following:
The Security has been listed for trading on the Amex and, pursuant
to a Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed on April 24, 1998, on the
New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (``NYSE''). Trading in the Company's
Security on the NYSE commenced at the opening of business on April 28,
1998, and concurrently therewith such Security was suspended from
trading on the Amex.
The Company complied with Amex Rule 18 by filing with the Exchange
a certified copy of a resolution adopted by the Company's Board of
Directors authorizing the withdrawal of the Security from listing and
registration on the Amex and by setting forth in detail to the Exchange
the reasons and facts supporting the withdrawal.
The Company's decision to withdraw its Security from listing and
registration on the Amex was based on its belief that the securities of
most of its competitors
[[Page 32033]]
trade on the NYSE and that listing its Security on such Exchange would
enhance its competitive position.
By letter dated April 24, 1998, the Amex informed the Company that
it had no objection to the withdrawal of the Company's Security from
listing and registration on the Amex.
By reason of Section 12(b) of the Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder, the Company shall continue to be obligated to file reports
with the Commission and the NYSE under Section 13 of the Act.
Any interested person may, on or before June 25, 1998, submit by
letter to the Secretary of the Securities and Exchange Commission, 450
Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549, facts bearing upon whether
the application has been made in accordance with the rules of Exchange
and what terms, if any, should be imposed by the Commission for the
protection of investors. The Commission, based on the information
submitted to it, will issue an order granting the application after the
date mentioned above, unless the Commission determines to order a
hearing on the matter.
For the Commission, by the Division of Market Regulation,
pursuant to delegated authority.
Jonathan G. Katz,
Secretary.
