Times Wire Reports
Oracle Corp. and Sun Microsystems Inc. have refiled their merger applications with U.S. antitrust authorities, a move that extends the deadline for the government to respond to the proposed combination.
Sun said it would hold a July 16 stockholders meeting to approve the combination. Oracle, the world’s second-largest software maker, announced April 20 that it would purchase Sun, a maker of server and storage computers, for $7.4 billion.
