Re:Newly-Formed Partnerships
Dear Ms. Baruch:
This letter is to confirm our telephone conver-
sation of Monday, March 21, 1983, regarding the aplica-
tion to newly-formed partnership of the premerger noti-
fication requirement of Title II of the Hart-Scott-
Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, Pub. L. 94-435,
90 Stat. 1390, 15 U.S.C. 18a.
Our understanding is that premerger notification
is not required of a partnership if the partnership is
newly formed and has either no assets or assets less than
$10 million other than assets to be used as consideration
in making an acquisition.
If our understanding is either incorrect or in-
complete, it would be appreciated if you would so advise
us. Thank you for your assistance.
With best regards.
