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 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 of the
waiting period provided by law and the
[[Page 34419]]
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.
