PER CURIAM.
Defendant appeals from a judgment of conviction for two counts of first-degree theft, ORS 164.055. In his first assignment of error on appeal, defendant contends that the trial court erred in failing to merge those two convictions. In his second assignment of error, he contends that the trial court erred by instructing the jury that it could reach a nonunanimous verdict. Finally, in his third and fourth assignments of error, defendant contends that the trial court erred in accepting the jury's nonunanimous verdict as to each count. We reject defendant's second, third, and fourth assignments without discussion. We write only to address his first assignment of error concerning the merger of his convictions.
*998 Defendant was charged in a two-count indictment. The first count alleged that defendant stole stainless steel boxes, and the second count alleged that he then sold those boxes. A jury found defendant guilty of both counts. Despite defendant's request that the trial court merge the convictions, the court entered a judgment of conviction on both counts.
On appeal, defendant contends that, under State v. Cox, 336 Or. 284, 82 P.3d 619 (2003), the trial court erred in failing to merge the two convictions because the two counts alleged only a "single theft." The state concedes that the trial court erred in failing to merge the convictions because, under Cox, "defendant's alternate forms of depriving the victim identified in the indictment * * * of the same property does not transform that single act of theft into multiple convictions." We agree and accept the concession. See also State v. Turner, 211 Or.App. 96, 97, 153 P.3d 134 (2007) (holding that convictions for two counts of first-degree theft based on stealing packaged meat and then selling it merged).
Convictions on Counts 1 and 2 reversed and remanded with instructions to enter a judgment of conviction for one count of first-degree theft reflecting that defendant was found guilty on both theories and for resentencing; otherwise affirmed.
