Dear Mr. Smith:

In our telephone conversation today, we discussed whether a transaction being contemplated by our client (redacted) would be subject to the premerger notification provisions of 15 U.S.C. Sec. 18(A) or whether it is exempt under C(1). As we discussed, I am sending you written documents regarding the transaction. The material should provide a reasonably complete description of the businesses of both the seller and the buyer, as well as the assets involved in the sale.


We believe that such a transaction would constitute the acquisition of goods or realty transferred in the ordinary course of business, but would like to discuss it with you further after you have had a chance to review the documents. I will call you on Monday, April 29, to discuss the matter.


Thank you for your assistance.
