(El Paso Corporation, Common Stock, $3.00 par value) File No. 1-14365 April 2, 2003. El Paso Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Issuer”), has filed an application with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”), pursuant to Section 12(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Act”) 1 and Rule 12d2-2(d) thereunder, 2 to withdraw its Common Stock, $3.00 par value (“Security”), from listing and registration on the Pacific Exchange, Inc.
(“PCX” or “Exchange”). 1 15 U.S.C. 78 *l* (d). 2 17 CFR 240.12d2-2(d). The Board of Directors (“Board”) of the Issuer approved resolutions on December 6, 2002 to withdraw its Security from listing on the Exchange. The Issuer determined that it is not in the best interest of the Issuer or its stockholders to continue to be subject to the limitations and cost associated with maintaining the PCX's listing requirements for its Security. In addition, the Issuer believes that it is desirable and in the best interests of the Issuer and its stockholders to delist its Security from the PCX.
The Issuer states that the Security will continue to trade on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (“NYSE”). The Issuer stated in its application that it has complied with the rules of the PCX that govern the removal of securities from listing and registration on the Exchange. The Issuer's application relates solely to the withdrawal of the Security from listing and registration on the PCX and from registration under section 12(b) 3 of the Act and shall not affect its listing on the NYSE or its obligation to be registered under section 12(g) of the Act. 4 3 15 U.S.C. 78 *l* (b). 4 15 U.S.C. 78 *l* (g).
