FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION
Granting of Requests for Early Termination of the Waiting Period
Under the Premerger Notification Rules
Section 7A of the Clayton Act, 15 U.S.C. 18a, as added by Title II
of the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, requires
persons contemplating certain mergers or acquisitions to give the
Federal Trade 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
General for the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice.
Neither agency intends to take any action with respect to these
proposed acquisitions during the applicable waiting period.
