Antitrust Division

Notice Pursuant to the National

Cooperative Research and Production

Act of 1993—United States Automotive

Manufacturers Occupant Safety

Research Partnership

Notice is hereby given that, on

December 30, 1996, pursuant to Section

6(a) of the National Cooperative

Research and Production Act of 1993,

U.S.C. 4301 et seq. (‘‘the Act’’), General

Motors Corporation filed written

notifications simultaneously with the

Attorney General and the Federal

Trade Commission disclosing an

expansion of the scope of the United

States Automotive Manufacturers

Occupant Safety Research

Partnership. The notifications were

filed for the purpose of extending the

Act’s provisions limiting the recovery

of antitrust plaintiffs to actual

damages under specified

circumstances. Specifically, in

addition to the nature and objectives

originally published, the parties will

combine their efforts to accelerate

research on so-called ‘‘smart’’ air bags.

To accomplish this objective, the

parties, working in conjunction with

government entities, universities and

suppliers, will collect and examine

field data that shows how occupants

behave in air bag-equipped vehicles,

work on understanding the nature and

frequency of ‘‘out-of-position’’

occupant injuries from air bags, work

with government agencies on new

regulatory standards for vulnerable

occupants and research the various

complex technology ideas for ‘‘smart’’

air bags. The parties may also perform

other acts allowed by the National

Cooperative Research and Production

Act that would advance these goals.

No other changes have been made in

either the membership or planned

activity of the joint venture.

Membership in the venture remains

open, and General Motors intends to file

additional written notifications

disclosing all changes in membership.

On July 7, 1992, General Motors filed

its original notification pursuant to

Section 6(a) of the Act. The Department

of Justice published a notice in the

Federal Register pursuant to Section

6(b) of the Act on August 11, 1992 (57

FR 35845). On August 21, General

Motors filed its last notification,

changing the name but not the scope of

the joint venture. A notice of that name

change was published on October 6,

1992 (57 FR 46047).
