Marathon Petroleum Corp. (MPC) and Andeavor have announced that the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 has expired in connection with the proposed transaction whereby MPC would acquire all of Andeavor’s outstanding shares. The parties have also received the necessary regulatory clearance by the Canadian Commissioner of Competition pursuant to the Competition Act (Canada).

Together, these matters satisfy certain conditions for the closing of the proposed merger.
