CERTAIN PARTIES HAVE FILED APPLICATIONS FOR REVIEW THAT CHALLENGE THE ORDER, CONSENT DECREE, AND GRANT OF THE APPLICATION, IN WHICH THEY AGAIN ATTEMPT TO RAISE CHARACTER ISSUES AGAINST CPRN. THE APPLICATIONS FOR REVIEW REMAIN PENDING.

IN LIGHT OF THE FOREGOING, THE PROPOSED ASSIGNEE HAS ANSWERED THIS QUESTION NO IN AN ABUNDANCE OF CAUTION, EVEN THOUGH ALL CHARACTER ISSUES RAISED AGAINST CPRN IN THE OPPOSITIONS WERE RESOLVED IN CPRN'S FAVOR AND, BECAUSE THE APPLICATION WAS GRANTED, THERE IS NO PENDING BROADCAST APPLICATION IN WHICH CHARACTER ISSUES WERE RAISED. THE PROPOSED ASSIGNEE BELIEVES THAT ALL OF THE CHARACTER ALLEGATIONS WHICH HAVE BEEN RAISED LACK MERIT AND RESPECTFULLY SUBMITS THAT NONE OF THEM CREATE AN IMPEDIMENT TO THE GRANT OF THE INSTANT APPLICATION.
