Dear Mr. Sharpe:

We wrote to you on February 12, 1985 with respect to the proposed merger of (redacted).

This will confirm our telephone conversation of yesterdays date in which you indicated to me that upon review of our February 12, 1985 correspondence that the proposed transaction is exempt under 16CFR 802.1, et seq., and the reporting requirements of the Hart-Scott-Rodino Anti-trust Improvements Act of 1976 and that as a result no further clearance is required from the Federal Trade Commission or the Department of Justice.

Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

Very truly yours,
