Section 7A of the Clayton Act, 15 U.S.C. 18a, as added by Title II

Commission and the Assistant Attorney General advance notice and to
wait designated periods before consummation of such plans. Section
7A(b)(2) of the Act permits the agencies, in individual cases, to
terminate this waiting period prior to its expiration and requires that
notice of this action be published in the Federal Register.
The following transactions were granted early termination--on the
dates indicated--of the waiting period provided by law and the
premerger notification rules. The listing for each transaction includes
the transaction number and the parties to the transaction. The grants
were made by the Federal Trade Commission and the Assistant Attorney

Neither agency intends to take any action with respect to these
proposed acquisitions during the applicable waiting period.
