FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION Granting of Request for Early Termination of the Waiting Period Under the Premerger Notification Rules Section 7A of the Clayton Act, 15 U.S.C. 18a, as added by Title II of the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, requires persons contemplating certain mergers or acquisitions to give the Federal Trade Commission and the Assistant Attorney General advance notice and to wait designated periods before consummation of such plans. Section 7A(b)(2) of the Act permits the agencies, in individual cases, to terminate this waiting period prior to its expiration and requires that notice of this action be published in the Federal Register. The following transactions were granted early termination—on the dates indicated—of the waiting period provided by law and the premerger notification rules. The listing for each transaction includes the transaction number and the parties to the transaction. The grants were made by the Federal Trade Commission and the Assistant Attorney General for the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice. Neither agency intends to take any action with respect to these proposed acquisitions during the applicable waiting period. 4/7/2014 Alfred E Mann, Mannkind Corp The question is who is Mannkind merging with? And, does a merger benefit shareholders more than a partner for Afrezza, etc.? www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2014-05-09/pdf/2014-10645.pdf

Strange... is Al taking the company private? Can this be translated differently? 20140732: Alfred E. Mann; MannKind Corporation DATE: April 7, 2014 TRANSACTION NUMBER: 20140732 ACQUIRING PARTY: Alfred E. Mann ACQUIRED PARTY: MannKind Corporation GRANTING STATUS: Granted www.ftc.gov/enforcement/premerger-notification-program/early-termination-notices/20140732Mannkind (if I remember correctly) was the result of Al merging several of his companies... I'm not sure how another merger with an additional company (of his) would make sense.
