RE: Product Exclusion Request Number USTR-2018-0025-1572

Illinois Tool Works:

The purpose of this letter is to inform you that the product exclusion request referenced 

above has been denied. As you are aware, USTR published a Federal Register notice (83 FR 

28710) on June 20, 2018, that announced the Trade Representative’s determination to impose an 

additional duty of 25 percent on certain products from China. On July 11, 2018, the Trade 

Representative published a Federal Register notice (83 FR 32181) which announced that a 

process had been established under which interested persons could request that products falling 

within a covered HTSUS subheading be excluded from the additional duties announced on June 

20.

Your request was reviewed in accordance with the factors and procedures set forth in 

Section B(1) of the July 11 notice. Based on that review, and after careful consideration, your 

request was denied because the request did not contain a sufficient product identification or was 

determined to be non-administrable.

Because USTR will grant exclusion requests on a product specific basis, you may still 

benefit from a product exclusion if a similar product is granted an exclusion. Products for which 

an exclusion has been granted will be periodically announced on the USTR website. Product 

exclusions will become legally effective once published in the Federal Register. 

Sincerely,

Joseph Barloon

Report of Independent Accountants

To the Board of Directors
Liberty Lending Services, Inc.


We have examined management's assertion about Liberty Lending Services, Inc.'s
(Liberty Lending's) compliance with the minimum servicing standards identified
in the Mortgage Bankers Association of America's Uniform Single Attestation
Program for Mortgage Bankers (USAP) as of and for the year ended June 30, 1999
included in the accompanying Management Assertion. Management is responsible for
Liberty Lending's compliance with those minimum servicing standards. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on management's assertion about Liberty
Lending's compliance based on our examination.

Our examination was made in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and, accordingly, included
examining, on a test basis, evidence about Liberty Lending's compliance with the
minimum servicing standards and performing such other procedures as we
considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our examination
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our examination does not provide a
legal determination on Liberty Lending's compliance with the minimum servicing
standards.

In our opinion, management's assertion that Liberty Lending Services, Inc.
complied with the aforementioned minimum servicing standards as of and for the
year ended June 30, 1999 is fairly stated, in all material respects.

CULLEN ASHTON TODD, Appellant

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

_______________________________________________________ ______________

On Appeal from the 221st District Court 

Montgomery County, Texas

Trial Cause No. 10-05-04679-CR 

________________________________________________________ _____________

MEMORANDUM OPINION ON REHEARING 

In one of his issues on motion for rehearing, Cullen Ashton Todd contends 

his guilty plea was involuntary because the trial court stated the improper 

punishment range in the oral admonishment during the plea hearing. He did not 

present this argument to this Court in his brief on appeal. Moreover, he did not 

present this claim to the trial court in his application for writ of habeas corpus.

Todd’s stated ground for habeas relief was ineffective assistance of counsel due to 

trial counsel’s failure to adequately investigate the value of the property before
2

Todd accepted the plea bargain for a guilty plea to a state jail felony. Accordingly, 

Todd failed to preserve the oral admonishment issue through his habeas 

application. See Tex. R. App. P. 33.1.

Todd failed to challenge the validity of his guilty plea in a direct appeal 

when the trial court deferred adjudication of guilt. See Dillehey v. State, 815 

S.W.2d 623, 626 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). Todd did eventually dispute the 

accuracy of the oral admonishment in a motion to withdraw his guilty plea, but he 

filed the motion during revocation proceedings that occurred after the trial court 

considered and ruled on Todd’s habeas petition. He cannot challenge the validity 

of his plea in the appeal of the adjudication following revocation of community 

supervision. See Manuel v. State, 994 S.W.2d 658, 661-62 (Tex. Crim. App. 1999). 

We overrule appellant’s motion for rehearing.

MOTION FOR REHEARING OVERRULED.

RE: Product Exclusion Request Number: USTR-2018-0025-4144

Scosche Industries, Inc:

The purpose of this letter is to inform you that the product exclusion request referenced 

above has been denied. As you are aware, USTR published a Federal Register notice (83 FR 

28710) on June 20, 2018, that announced the Trade Representative’s determination to impose an 

additional duty of 25 percent on certain products from China. On July 11, 2018, the Trade 

Representative published a Federal Register notice (83 FR 32181) which announced that a 

process had been established under which interested persons could request that products falling 

within a covered HTSUS subheading be excluded from the additional duties announced on June 

20. 

Your request was reviewed in accordance with the factors and procedures set forth in 

Section B(1) of the July 11 notice. Based on that review, and after careful consideration, your 

request was denied because the request failed to show that the imposition of additional duties on 

the particular product would cause severe economic harm to you or other U.S. interests.

Because USTR will grant exclusion requests on a product specific basis, you may still 

benefit from a product exclusion if a similar product is granted an exclusion. Products for which 

an exclusion has been granted will be periodically announced on the USTR website. Product 

exclusions will become legally effective once published in the Federal Register.

         This First Amendment (this "Amendment") to the 1998 Stock Incentive
Plan (the "Plan") is hereby established by Bright Horizons Family Solutions,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and adopted by its Board of
Directors as of the 18th day of September, 1998 (the "Effective Date").


                                    RECITALS

         A. The Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") previously

Option shall vest and become exercisable with respect to one-third of such
shares on the first anniversary of the date of grant, with respect to one-third
on the second anniversary of the date of grant, and with respect to one-third on
the third anniversary of the date of grant".

         B. Section 9(b)(ii) of the Plan is hereby amended by replacing the
phrase "a majority" on the third line with "40%".

"provided that it must be approved by a majority of the votes cast by the
holders of the Company's common stock".

RE: Product Exclusion Request Number: USTR-2018-0025-4031

Enerpac:

I am pleased to notify you that the United States Trade Representative has determined to 

grant the above-referenced exclusion request submitted pursuant to the notice published at 83 FR 

32181 (‘July 11 notice’). The exclusion determination is set out in a formal notice which has 

been submitted to Office of the Federal Register for publication (‘the exclusion notice’). A prepublication version of the exclusion notice has been posted on the USTR website, at 

https://ustr.gov/sites/default/files/enforcement/301Investigations/12.21.18_Notice_of_Product_E

xclusions.pdf.

The scope of the exclusion is governed by the formal HTSUS language in the annex to 

the product exclusion notice, and not by the product descriptions set out in any particular request 

for exclusion. An exclusion in response to your request has been granted by excluding from the 

additional tariffs the 10-digit HTSUS subheading under which your request was filed. 

In accordance with the July 11 notice, the exclusion applies as of the July 6, 2018 

effective date of the tariff action, and will extend for one year after the exclusion notice is 

published in the Federal Register. As stated in the exclusion notice, U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection will issue additional instructions on entry guidance and implementation.

Sincerely,
