Furthermore, unless the license being assigned has been paid in full, the approval is conditioned upon the assignee's execution of the applicable financing statements (i.e. the UCC-1 Forms) and payment of all costs associated with the preparation and recordation of the financing statements, on or before the consummation date. Where applicable, the Bureau will send all assignors listed herein the appropriate loan documents and financing statements upon notification of the proposed consummation date. Additionally, all installment payments must be current on the consummation date. Upon receipt of the letter required by Section 1.948(d) of the Commission's rules, and satisfaction of all requisite conditions, including execution of the appropriate documents, the Bureau will consider the assignment "complete" and will issue the license to the assignee with the date of the license grant identical to the date upon which the transaction closed, thus completing the assignment.

Failure of the parties to comply with Section 1.948(d) of the Commission's rules, or any specific condition described above, will result in automatic cancellation of the Commission's assignment approval, and dismissal of the underlying assignment application.

To notify the Bureau of the proposed consummation date and to request loan documents and financing statements, contact Rita Cookmeyer or Yolanda Lee at (202) 418-0660. Requests for loan documents and financing statements should be made at least 10 days prior to consummation.
