Berkshire has scheduled a special meeting of its shareholders for January 20 to approve a 50-for-1 split of Berkshire's Class B shares. That split is designed to facilitate the BNI deal.
The companies say they expect to close the transaction during the first three months of next year. It received antitrust clearance from federal regulators late last week.
