between the Enforcement Bureau (the "Bureau") and Champion Cable, LLC

Apparent Liability for Forfeiture ("NAL") by the Bureau concerning

1. The Bureau and Champion have negotiated the terms of the Consent
Decree, a copy of which is attached hereto and incorporated by

questions of fact as to whether Champion possesses the basic
qualifications, including character qualifications, to be or remain a
Commission licensee.
