bidder has the option of removing any 

bid placed in that round. By removing 

selected bids in the FCC Auction 

System, a bidder may effectively undo 

any bid placed within that round. In 

contrast to the bid withdrawal 

provisions a bidder removing a bid 

placed in the same round is not subject 

to a withdrawal payment. Once a round 

closes, a bidder may no longer remove 

a bid. 

37. The Bureaus also seek comment 

on whether bid withdrawals should be 

permitted in Auction 90. When 

permitted in an auction, bid 

withdrawals provide a bidder with the 

option of withdrawing bids placed in 

prior rounds that have become 

provisionally winning bids. A bidder 

may withdraw its provisionally winning 

bids using the withdraw bids function 

in the FCC Auction System. A bidder 

that withdraws its provisionally 

winning bid(s), if permitted, is subject 

to the bid withdrawal payment 

provisions of the Commission rules. 

38. For Auction 91 the Bureaus 

propose to prohibit bidders from 

withdrawing any bids after the round in 

which bids were placed has closed. This 

proposal is made in recognition of the 

site-specific nature and wide geographic 

dispersion of the permits available in 

this auction which suggests that 

potential applicants for this auction may 

have fewer incentives to aggregate 

permits through the auction process (as 

compared with bidders in many 

auctions of wireless licenses). The 

Bureaus are also mindful that bid 

withdrawals, particularly those made 

late in this auction, could result in 

delays in licensing new FM stations and 

attendant delays in the offering of new 

broadcast service to the public. The 

Bureaus seek comment on this 

approach. 

C. Post-Auction Payments 

i. Interim Withdrawal Payment 

Percentage 

39. In the event that the Bureaus 

allow bid withdrawals in Auction 91, 

the Bureaus propose that the interim bid 

withdrawal payment be 20 percent of 

the withdrawn bid. A bidder that 

withdraws a bid during an auction is 

subject to a withdrawal payment equal 

to the difference between the amount of 

the withdrawn bid and the amount of 

the winning bid in the same or a 

subsequent auction. If a construction 

permit for which a bid has been 

withdrawn does not receive a 

subsequent higher bid or winning bid in 

the same auction, the final withdrawal 

payment cannot be calculated until a 

corresponding construction permit 

receives a higher bid or winning bid in 

a subsequent auction. When that final 

payment cannot yet be calculated, the 

bidder responsible for the withdrawn 

bid is assessed an interim bid 

withdrawal payment, which will be 

applied toward any final bid withdrawal 

payment that is ultimately assessed. 

40. The amount of the interim bid 

withdrawal payment may range from 

three percent to 20 percent of the 

withdrawn bid amount, with the 

percentage generally being higher where 

there is greater risk of bid withdrawals 

being used for anti-competitive 

purposes, such as when there is little 

need for bidders to aggregate permits. 

The Bureaus therefore believe that the 

maximum interim bid withdrawal 

payment percentage allowed by 47 CFR 

1.2104(g)(1) is justified, in the event bid 

withdrawals are allowed. Commenters 

advocating the use of bid withdrawals 

should also address the percentage of 

the interim bid withdrawal payment. 

ii. Additional Default Payment 

Percentage 

41. Any winning bidder that defaults 

or is disqualified after the close of an 

auction (i.e., fails to remit the required 

down payment within the prescribed 

period of time, fails to submit a timely 

long-form application, fails to make full 

payment, or is otherwise disqualified) is 

liable for a default payment under 47 

CFR 1.2104(g)(2). This payment consists 

of a deficiency payment, equal to the 

difference between the amount of the 

bidder’s bid and the amount of the 

winning bid the next time a 

construction permit covering the same 

spectrum is won in an auction, plus an 

additional payment equal to a 

percentage of the defaulter’s bid or of 

the subsequent winning bid, whichever 

is less. 

42. The Commission’s rules provide 

that, in advance of each auction, a 

percentage shall be established between 

three percent and twenty percent of the 

applicable bid to be assessed as an 

additional default payment. As the 

Commission has indicated, the level of 

this payment in each case will be based 

on the nature of the service and the 

construction permits being offered. 

43. For Auction 91, the Bureaus 

propose to establish an additional 

default payment of twenty percent. As 

previously noted by the Commission, 

defaults weaken the integrity of the 

auction process and may impede the 

deployment of service to the public, and 

an additional default payment of more 

than the previous three percent will be 

more effective in deterring defaults. In 

light of these considerations for Auction 

91, the Bureaus propose an additional 

default payment of twenty percent of 

the relevant bid. The Bureaus seek 

comment on this proposal. 

V. Deadlines and Filing Procedures 

44. Comments are due on or before 

October 13, 2010, and reply comments 

are due on or before October 27, 2010. 

All filings related to procedures for 

Auction 91 must refer to AU Docket No. 

10–183. Comments may be submitted 

using the Commission’s Electronic 

Comment Filing System or by filing 

paper copies. The Bureaus strongly 

encourage interested parties to file 

comments electronically. 

45. This proceeding has been 

designated as a permit-but-disclose 

proceeding in accordance with the 

Commission’s ex parte rules. Persons 

making oral ex parte presentations are 

reminded that memoranda summarizing 

the presentations must contain 

summaries of the substance of the 

presentations and not merely a listing of 

the subjects discussed. More than a one 

or two sentence description of the views 

and arguments presented is generally 

required. Other rules pertaining to oral 

and written ex parte presentations in 

permit-but-disclose proceedings are set 

forth in 47 CFR 1.1206(b).
