 We  approve  these  assignments  because  we  find  they  are  in  the  public  interest,  convenience,  and  necessity.
 See  47  U.  S.  C.    310(  d).  By  this  approval,  the  parties  are  authorized  to  proceed  to  the  final  stages  of  their  respective  transactions.  Section  1.948(  d)  of  the  Commission's  rules  provides  that  "the
 Commission  shall  be  notified  by  letter  of  the  date  of  completion  of  the  assignment  or  transfer  of  control."
 See  47  C.  F.  R.  1.948(  d).  Hence,  we  remind  parties  that  an  assignment  shall  not  be  considered  complete  until  the  underlying  transaction  closes  and  all  conditions  set  forth  in  the  grant  documents,  including  this
 Public  Notice  and  the  application,  are  met.  In  addition,  the  approval  of  each  assignment  is  also  conditioned  upon  the  execution  of  all  Commission  loan  documents  by  the  assignor,  assignee  and  the  Commission,
 unless  the  license  being  assigned  has  been  paid  in  full.  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

 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(  s).
 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
