Item 8.01 Other Events.
On July 28, 2014, Zillow, Inc. (“Zillow”), Zebra Holdco, Inc. and Trulia, Inc. (“Trulia”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger pursuant to which Zillow will acquire Trulia (the “Proposed Transaction”). The Proposed Transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”). Pursuant to certain agreements entered into with the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”), Zillow agreed not to consummate the Proposed Transaction prior to 11:59 p.m. Eastern time on February 15, 2015.
On February 13, 2015, Zillow announced that it received notice from the FTC that the FTC decided to close its investigation and take no action against the Proposed Transaction. As a result, closing conditions related to the HSR Act have been satisfied.
Zillow and Trulia previously reported that they expected the Proposed Transaction would close in the first half of 2015. Zillow now expects that the parties may be in a position to close the Proposed Transaction as early as February 17, 2015.
