FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION
Granting of Request for Early Termination of The Waiting Period
Under The Premerger Notification Rules
Section 7A of the Clayton Act, 15 U.S.C. Sec. 18a, as added by
Title IT 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.
