About the Book
This newly-updated fourth edition of Premerger Notification Practice Manual remains the best and most comprehensive published source for guidance in complying with federal agency rules governing notification of a planned merger. The Manual provides summaries and discussions of (a) informal interpretations given by the Premerger Notification Office of the Federal Trade Commission and (b) enforcement actions brought by the antitrust agencies regarding the premerger notification requirements of the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 and the Commission's implementing regulations.
Like the first three editions, published in 1985, 1991, and 2003, this fourth edition of the Manual brings all pertinent materials completely up-to-date, incorporating the FTC Premerger Notification Office's latest positions on the various issues, and adding summaries of interpretations relating to changes that have occurred in the HSR world since 2003, including the new rules, the Formal Interpretation on LLCs, and the amendments to the Act.
As in the first three editions, the summaries are organized by specific sections of the HSR Act and rules. Each numbered interpretation describes the issue and analysis and, in some cases, provides editorial comments on the issue and the interpretation. The interpretations are based upon guidance from the FTC staff, which is charged with administering the Act. The Fourth Edition also adds summaries of enforcement actions relating to HSR issues brought by the antitrust agencies.
An extensive index enables you to locate relevant summaries quickly and easily. The appendix contains the text of all 17 of the FTC's HSR Formal Interpretations.
Premerger Notification Practice Manual, Fourth Edition is a unique and essential resource for antitrust and M&A practitioners, as well as corporate counsel.
