Subject: Question re: Item 5 and intracompany services
Hi,
Hope you're all doing well. We have a question about Item 5-when the US sub of a multinational company is paid by its non-US parent for rendering services, such as logistics, editorial, IT support etc., should those payments be counted in Item 5? Also, if the US sub pays its non-US parent company license or royalty fees, should those payments be counted in Item 5? We found the following interpretation that says that intracompany sales that should be included in Item 5 are limited to manufacturing revenues but since this pre-dates the revised rules/Form, we wanted to check with you. http://www. ftc.gov/enforcement/premerger-notification--program/informal-interpretations/0511029
