Advised that a Maryland Business Trust is a non-corporate entity. The acquisition of its assets is exempt under 7A(c)(2)

Question

From: (redacted)

To: Verne, B. Michael
Subject: HSR question

Michael: Would the acquisition of a REIT (by a buyer that isn't a REIT) beexempt if the target REIT's only business is investment in "first-lien,fixed-rate mortgages secured by single-family residential property"? Is aREIT (it happens in this case to be a Marylandtrust) viewed as a corporation and thus subject to rule 802.4? Or is it anon-corporate entity whose acquisition would be viewed for HSR purposes as the acquisition of all of its assets?
