Item 8.01 Other Events.
 
Stamps.com and Newell Rubbermaid Inc. (Newell) have each received a Request for Additional Information, or a "second request," from the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) in connection with the DOJ's review of Stamps.com's proposed acquisition of PSI Systems, Inc. (d/b/a Endicia) from Newell under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the Act). This second request from the DOJ is a standard part of the full regulatory process.
 

The transaction, which was announced March 24, 2015, is subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Act. The effect of the second request is to extend the waiting period imposed by the Act until 30 days after Stamps.com and Newell have substantially complied with the second request, unless that period is extended voluntarily by the parties or terminated sooner by the DOJ. Stamps.com and Newell are gathering information to respond promptly to the second request and are cooperating with the DOJ in connection with its review. Stamps.com expects the transaction to close in 2015.
