Sec. 800.505  Withdrawal of notice.

    (a) A party to an acquisition that has submitted notice under Sec. 
800.401(a), or, if more than one such party has submitted notice, the 
parties to an acquisition, may, at any time prior to an announcement by 
the President of his decision as described in Sec. 800.601, request in 
writing that such notice(s) be withdrawn. Such request shall be directed 
to the Staff Chairman and shall state the reasons why the request is 
being made. Such requests will ordinarily be granted, except as 
determined by the Committee. A written notification of the decision on 
the request to withdraw notice shall be sent promptly to the 
requester(s).
    (b) Any withdrawal in writing of an agency notice by the agency that 
submitted it shall be effective on its receipt by the Staff Chairman, 
who shall promptly send notice of the withdrawal to the parties to an 
acquisition.
    (c) In any case where a request to withdraw notice is granted under 
paragraph (a), or where the withdrawal is effective under paragraph (b) 
of this section, or where notice has been rejected under Sec. 800.403, 
such notice shall be considered not to have been made for purposes of 
Sec. 800.401. Section 800.702 shall nevertheless apply with respect to 
information or documentary material filed with the Committee. With 
respect to any subsequent acquisition among the parties that is within 
this part, notice made in accordance with Sec. 800.401 shall be deemed 
a new notice for purposes of these regulations, including Sec. 800.601.
