Pendency of Request for Exemptions From the Bond/Escrow Requirement Relating to the Sale of Assets, etc.: Ricketts Acquisition LLC and the Chicago National League Ball Club, LLC
This notice advises interested persons that the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation ("PBGC") has received a request from Ricketts Acquisition LLC for an exemption from the bond/escrow requirement of section 4204(a)(1)(B) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, with respect to the Major League
Baseball Players Benefit Plan. Section 4204(a)(1) provides that the sale of assets by an employer that contributes to a multiemployer
pension plan will not constitute a complete or partial withdrawal from the plan if the transaction meets certain conditions. One of these conditions is that the purchaser post a bond or deposit money in escrow for the five-plan-year period beginning after the sale. PBGC is authorized to grant individual and class exemptions from this requirement. Before granting an exemption, the statute and PBGC regulations require PBGC to give interested persons an opportunity to
comment on the exemption request. The purpose of this notice is to advise interested persons of the exemption request and solicit their views on it.
