Title II of the
[[Page 63531]]
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 of the
waiting period provided by law and the 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.
