In March, Intel announced it signed an agreement to buy Mobileye for $15.3 billion dollars.

Over the past months, Mobileye had reported several deal-related regulatory hurdles cleared, including approvals from regulators in Israel, Germany, and Austria.

According to the terms of the deal announced by the companies, Mobileye’s assets will be merged into a Delaware-registered subsidiary of Intel called Cyclops Holding, turning Mobileye into a privately held company under Dutch law.
