FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION
Granting of Request for Early Termination of the Waiting period
Under Premerger Notification Rules
Section 7A of the Clayton Act, 15 U.S.C. 18a, is added by Title II
of the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, requires
persons contemplating certain mergers or acquisitions to give 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 of the
waiting period provided by law and the
[[Page 58685]]
premerger notification rules. 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.
