            Digital Device may not be imported into the United States unless
            the importer, ultimate consignee, or customs broker, files with

            authorization via the Commission's equipment verification
            procedures.^

            inquiry from the Division,^ KMA provided information relating to

            Bureau and KMA executed tolling agreements to toll the statute of
            limitations.^

    15. Waivers. KMA waives any and all rights it may have to seek
        administrative or judicial reconsideration, review, appeal, or stay,
        or to otherwise challenge or contest the validity of this Consent
        Decree and the Adopting Order, provided the Bureau issues an Adopting
        Order as defined herein. KMA shall retain the right to challenge
        Commission interpretation of the Consent Decree or any terms
        contained herein. If either Party (or the United States on behalf of
        the Commission) brings a judicial action to enforce the terms of the
        Adopting Order, neither KMA nor the Commission shall contest the
        validity of the Consent Decree or of the Adopting Order, and KMA
        shall waive any statutory right to a trial de novo. KMA hereby agrees
        to waive any claims it may have under the Equal Access to Justice
        Act^ relating to the matters addressed in this Consent Decree.

    16. Invalidity. In the event that this Consent Decree in its entirety is
        rendered invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, it shall
        become null and void and may not be used in any manner in any legal
        proceeding.

    17. Subsequent Rule or Order. The Parties agree that if any provision of
        the Consent Decree conflicts with any subsequent Rule or order
        adopted by the Commission (except an order specifically intended to
        revise the terms of this Consent Decree to which KMA does not
        expressly consent) that provision will be superseded by such Rule or
        Commission order.

    18. Successors and Assigns. KMA agrees that the provisions of this
        Consent Decree shall be binding on its successors, assigns, and
        transferees.

    19. Final Settlement. Based on the Investigation, the Bureau contends
        that it may have certain claims against KMA related to possible
        violations of Section 302(b) of the Act and Sections 2.803, 2.1203,
        2.1204, 2.1205, 15.21, and 15.105 of the Rules. KMA neither admits
        nor denies any such violations, and the Commission does not concede
        or otherwise represent that its claims are not well founded. The
        Parties agree and acknowledge that this Consent Decree shall
        constitute a final settlement between the Parties with respect to the
        Investigation. The Parties also agree that this Consent Decree does
        not constitute either an adjudication on the merits or a factual or
        legal finding or determination regarding any compliance or
        noncompliance with the Communications Laws.

    20. Modifications. This Consent Decree cannot be modified without the
        written consent of both Parties.

    21. Paragraph Headings. The headings of the paragraphs in this Consent
        Decree are inserted for convenience only and are not intended to
        affect the meaning or interpretation of this Consent Decree.

    22. Authorized Representative. The individual signing this Consent Decree
        on behalf of KMA represents and warrants that he is authorized by KMA
        to execute this Consent Decree and to bind KMA to the obligations set
        forth herein. The FCC signatory represents that he is signing this
        Consent Decree in his official capacity and that he is authorized to
        execute this Consent Decree.

    23. Counterparts. This Consent Decree may be signed in any number of
        counterparts (including by facsimile), each of which, when executed
        and delivered, shall be an original, and all of which counterparts
        together shall constitute one and the same fully executed instrument.
