DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 (“Post-Effective Amendment No. 1”) is filed by Signal Genetics, Inc. (the “Company”), and amends the registration statement initially filed on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-201533) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on January 15, 2015 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”). The Registration Statement registered 3,857,141 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), including 160,714 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the representative’s warrants and 482,142 shares of common stock issuable upon the underwriters’ exercise of their over-allotment option in full). The Registration Statement was declared effective on February 17, 2015. The Company files this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement to deregister, as of the effectiveness of this post-effective amendment, the representative’s warrants and all shares of Common Stock underlying the representative’s warrants. We are deregistering such securities because, as of the effective date hereof, the representative’s warrants and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the representative’s warrants is being registered under a subsequent registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-205618).
