Corporation to Withdraw its Common Stock, $1.00 par value, from Listing

[File No. 1-05721]

DATES: June 29, 2005.
    On June 14, 2005, Leucadia National Corporation, a New York 
corporation (``Issuer''), 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 12d2-2(d) 
thereunder,\2\ to withdraw its common stock, $1.00 par value 
(``Security''), from listing and registration on the Pacific Exchange, 
Inc. (``PCX'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 781(d).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.12d2-2(d).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Board of Directors (``the Board'') of the Issuer approved a 
resolution on May 26, 2005 to withdraw the Security from listing and 
registration on PCX. The Issuer stated the reason the Board decided to 
withdraw the Security from PCX because: (1) The Security currently 
trades on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (``NYSE'') and PCX; (2) the 
primary exchange for trading of the Security is NYSE; and (3) a de 
minimus amount of trading the Security is effected through PCX. 
Accordingly, the Board determined that it is in the best interest of 
the Issuer and its shareholders to withdraw the Security from listing 
and registration on PCX.
    The Issuer stated in its application that it has complied with 
applicable rules of PCX by complying with all applicable laws in effect 
in the State of New York, the state in which the Issuer is 
incorporated, and by providing PCX with the required documents 
governing the withdrawal of securities from listing and registration on 
PCX.
    The Issuer's application relates solely to the withdrawal of the 
Security from listing on PCX and shall not affect its continued listing 
on NYSE or its obligation to be registered under Section 12(b) of the 
Act.\3\

accordance with the rules of PCX, and what terms, if any, should be 
imposed by the Commission for the protection of investors. All comment 
letters may be submitted by either of the following methods:
