On December 23, 2002, the Policy and Rules Branch of the Commercial Wireless Division (the "Division"), Wireless Telecommunications Bureau, approved the Joint Motion for Dismissal and Approval of Settlement ("Settlement Agreement") filed by WWC License L.L.C. and WWC Holding Co, Inc., both wholly-owned subsidiaries of Western Wireless Corporation, and N.E.
