All previous editions obsolete.

or assignment of license or construction permit. The
appropriate forms for use in connection with such
transfers or assignments are FCC Forms 314, 315 and
316. See 47 C.F.R. Sections 73.3540 and 73.3541. It is
the responsibility of the Licensee or Permittee to
determine if a given transaction constitutes a transfer of
control or an assignment. However, for purposes of
example only, and for the convenience of interested
persons, there are listed below some of the more common
types of transfers. A transfer of control takes place when:
(a)

An individual stockholder gains or loses
affirmative
or
negative
(50%)
control.
(Affirmative control consists of control of more
than 50% of voting stock; negative control
consists of control of exactly 50% of voting
stock.)

(b)

Any family group or any individual in a family
group gains or loses affirmative or negative (50%)
control.

(c)

Any group in privity gains or loses affirmative or
negative (50%) control.

The following are examples of transfers of control or
assignments requiring prior Commission consent:
(a)

A, who owns 51% of the Licensee’s or Permittee’s
stock, sells 1% or more thereof. A transfer has
been effected.

(b)

X corporation, wholly owned by Y family, retires
outstanding stock which results in family member
A’s individual holdings being increased to 50% or
more. A transfer has been effected.

(c)

A and B, husband and wife, each owns 50% of the
Licensee’s or Permittee’s stock. A sells some of
his stock to B. A transfer has been effected.

(d)

A is one of the partners in the Licensee. A sells
any part of his interest to newcomer B or existing
partner C. An assignment has been effected.

(e)

X partnership incorporates. An assignment has
been effected.

(f)

Minority stockholders form a voting trust to vote
their 50% or more combined stockholdings. A
transfer has been effected.

(g)

A, B, C, D, and E each own 20% of the stock of X
corporation. A, B, and C sell their stock to F, G,
and H at different times. A transfer is effected at
FCC 323 Instructions
March 2013

such time as 50% or more of the stock passes out
of the hands of the stockholders who held stock at
the time the original authorization for the Licensee
or Permittee corporation was issued.

Filing Requirements: Biennial Reports. Licensees of
commercial AM, FM, and full power television broadcast
stations, as well as Licensees of Class A and Low Power
Television stations must file FCC Form 323 every two
years. The initial filing shall be set by Public Notice
issued by the Media Bureau. Thereafter, the Form shall
be filed biennially by November 1, 2011, and every two
years thereafter.
Ownership Reports shall provide
information accurate as of October 1 of the year in which
the Report is filed, except that the Form filed by the initial
filing date shall provide the information as of November
1, 2009. See 47 C.F.R. Section 73.3615(a); In re
Promoting Diversification of Ownership in the
Broadcasting Services, Report and Order and Fourth
Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, FCC 09-33, 24
FCC Rcd 5896 (2009) and In re Promoting
Diversification of Ownership in the Broadcasting
Services, Memorandum Opinion and Order and Fifth
Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, FCC 09-92 (rel.
Oct. 16, 2009).

Licensees/Permittees: The name of the Licensee or
Permittee should be stated exactly as it appears on the
station’s existing license or construction permit. The
current street address or post office box used by the
Licensee or Permittee for receipt of Commission
correspondence should be set forth. Any change in the
name of the Licensee or Permittee, which does not involve
a change in ownership requiring prior Commission
approval, can be communicated to the Commission by
letter. Changes in the mailing address previously used by
the Licensee or Permittee should be promptly transmitted
to the Commission. See 47 C.F.R. Section 1.5. To report
any changes in the mailing address, use the Media Bureau
Electronic
Filing
system
(http://www.fcc.gov/mb/elecfile.html). Licensees or
Permittees can also mail in the form entitled “Change in
Official Mailing Address for Broadcast Station” (Form
5072).

Licensees must include all attributable interests on FCC
Form 323. For a description of attributable interests see
the instructions below and 47 C.F.R Section 73.3555
Notes.

FCC Registration Number (FRN). To comply with the
Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996, the
Respondent must enter its FRN number, a ten-digit unique
entity identifier for anyone doing business with the
Commission. The FRN can be obtained through the FCC
Registration System, CORES, which is listed among the
FCC E-Filing systems (http://www.fcc.gov/e-file/).

File a separate Form 323 for each entity that holds `an
attributable interest in a Licensee of a station for which
the Form 323 must be filed biennially. In the case of
organizational structures that include holding companies
or other forms of indirect ownership, a separate Form 323
must be filed for each entity in the organizational structure
that has an attributable interest in the Licensee.

Questions concerning the FCC Registration Number can
be directed to the Commission’s Registration System help
desk via email at [email protected] or by calling 1-877480-3201 (Mon.-Fri. 8 a.m.-6 p.m. ET).

In the case of a Licensee of multiple stations or other
Respondent with attributable interests in a Licensee of
multiple stations, where the ownership structure of each
station is identical and the information submitted is
equally applicable to each station, a single Form 323 may
be filed for the Licensee or Respondent listing all such
stations. After the initial biennial filing in 2009, if there
has been no change in the information submitted since the
filing of the last biennial report, a Licensee or other
Respondent may electronically validate and resubmit its
previously filed Form 323.
5.

Facility ID Number. Facility ID numbers can be located
by using the “Station Search” at the Media Bureau
Electronic
Filing
system
(http://www.fcc.gov/mb/elecfile.html). In addition, the
Facility ID Number is included on all broadcast
authorizations and postcards.
Question 3: Select the appropriate button to indicate the
nature of the Respondent, e.g., a Licensee, Permittee, or
an entity required to file a Form 323 because it holds an
attributable interest in the Licensee or Permittee.

Electronic Filing of FCC Form 323. All Form 323
filings must be submitted electronically. Use the Media
Bureau
Electronic
Filing
system
(http://www.fcc.gov/mb/elecfile.html).

Question 4: Fees. By law, the Commission is required to
collect charges for certain of the regulatory services it

provides to the public. A fee is required to be paid and
submitted with the filing of a Licensee’s biennial
ownership report only. All other Form 323 Reports are
fee-exempt Reports. Amendments to filed Reports do not
require payment of additional fees.

Question 7: Licensee and Station Information. All
Respondents must enter the name and FCC Registration
Number (FRN) of the Licensee for all stations listed on
the Report. Also enter the call sign, Facility ID Number,
community of license location, and class of service for
each station.

In cases where there has been no change in information
since the last filing of a station’s biennial ownership
report, and a Respondent electronically validates and
resubmits its previously filed Form 323, such
resubmission constitutes the station’s biennial ownership
report for that year and the required fee must also be
submitted. The fee for the biennial ownership report
(whether on a new Form 323 or as a resubmission) is
payable by the Licensee and is calculated on an individual
station basis. It is the number of stations for which a
report is filed that determines the total fee due; not the
number of Form 323’s filed to provide a complete set of
ownership information.

Question 8: Indicate the nature of the Respondent by
selecting one of the checkboxes.

NON-BIENNIAL OWNERSHIP REPORT – SECTION
II-A
Question 1: Contract Information. Licensees and
Permittees are required to file with the Commission any
contract or modification of contract relating to the
ownership, control, or management of the Licensee or
Permittee or to its stock. See 47 C.F.R. Section 73.3613.
Section 73.3613 requires the filing of all contracts of the
types specified and is not limited to executed contracts,
but includes options, pledges, and other executory
agreements and contracts relating to ownership, control,
or management.

Fee Exemption: Entities With Attributable Interests.
Respondents that are not Licensees but that are required to
File Form 323 because they have an attributable interest in
a Licensee are not required to pay the Biennial Report fee.
Such filers should select the option marked “Fee-exempt
Report” in response to Question 4.

Licensees or Permittees of commercial AM, FM, and full
power television stations should enter a listing for each
contract and other instrument required to be filed by 47
C.F.R. Section 73.3613 in the fields provided, including a
brief description of the contract/instrument, the name of
the person or organization with whom the
contract/instrument
is
made,
the
date
the
contract/instrument was executed, and the date the
contract/instrument expires. If the agreement is a local
marketing agreement (LMA) or a radio joint sales
agreement (JSA), or if the agreement is a network
affiliation agreement, check the appropriate box;
otherwise, select “Other” for other types of agreements.
Each contract/instrument must be identified and listed
directly in the fields provided. Enter the month and year
of the date of execution, and the month and year of the
date of expiration. If the agreement is perpetual or does
not have a fixed expiration date, select “No Expiration
Date.” For the purposes of completing Question 1, only
the listings of each contract/instrument are required. Do
not attach copies of the contracts/instruments to the
form.

Fee Exemption: Governmental Entities. Governmental
entities, which include any possession, state, city, county,
town, village, municipal corporation or similar political
organization or subpart thereof controlled by publicly
elected and/or duly appointed public officials exercising
sovereign direction and control over their respective
communities or programs, are exempt from payment of a
fee in connection with the filing of any Form 323. Such
filers should select the option marked “Governmental
Entity” in response to Question 4.
Question 5: Enter the “accurate as of” date in this field.
The date entered must (1) be Oct. 1 of the filing year
when filing a Biennial Ownership Report (or Nov. 1, 2009
in the case of the initial filing); or (2) be no more than 60
days prior to the date of filing when filing a non-biennial
Ownership Report.
Question 6: Purpose. Indicate in the checkboxes
provided whether the Report is (a) filed to satisfy the
Biennial filing requirement; (b) a validation and
resubmission of a previously filed Biennial Report
(certifying no change from the previously filed Biennial
Report), (c) filed in connection with a transfer of control
or assignment, (d) a Report by a Permittee within 30 days
after the grant of a construction permit; (e) an update or
certification of accuracy of an initial Report filed by a
Permittee; or (f) for the purposes of amending a
previously filed Report.

Only Licensees, Permittees, and entities with a majority
interest in or that otherwise exercise de facto control over
a Licensee or Permittee must respond to this question. All
non-Licensee/Permittee Respondents should select “Not
Applicable” in response to this question.
Question 2: Capitalization. Only Licensees, Permittees
and Respondent entities with a majority interest in (or that
otherwise exercise de facto control over) a Licensee of a

commercial AM, FM, or full power television station must
enter the capitalization information in Question 2. For
each type of stock, enter the class of stock, indicate
whether the class is voting or non-voting, and enter in the
number of shares in the applicable category field(s)
(Authorized, Issued & Outstanding, Treasury and
Unissued).

If a CORPORATION: Each officer, director, and owner
of stock accounting for 5% or more of the issued and
outstanding voting stock of the Respondent is considered
the holder of an attributable interest and must be reported.
Where the 5% stock owner is itself a corporation, each of
its stockholders, directors and executive officers
(president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer or their
equivalents) is considered a holder of an attributable
interest, UNLESS the Respondent submits as an exhibit a
statement establishing that an individual director or officer
will not exercise authority or influence in areas that will
affect the corporate Respondent or the station. In this
statement, the Respondent should identify the individual
by name and title, describe the individual’s duties and
responsibilities, and explain the manner in which such
individual is insulated from the corporate Respondent and
should not be attributed an interest. Such statements
should be attached as Exhibit 4 on Form 323.

Question 3: Ownership Interests. As used in Question
3, an attributable interest is an ownership interest in or
relationship to a Licensee or Permittee which will confer
on its holder that degree of influence or control over the
Licensee or Permittee sufficient to implicate the
Commission’s ownership rules. In responding to Question
3, Respondents should review the Commission’s multiple
ownership attribution policies and standards which are set
forth in the Notes to 47 C.F.R. Section 73.3555, as revised
and explained in Review of the Commission’s Regulations
Governing Attribution of Broadcast and Cable/MDS
Interests, 14 FCC Rcd 12559 (1999), recon. granted in
part, 16 FCC Rcd 1097 (2000). See also Report and
Order in MM Docket No. 83-46, 97 FCC 2d 997 (1984),
recon. Granted in part, 58 RR 2d 604 (1985), further
modified on recon., 61 RR 2d 739 (1986); In re
Promoting Diversification of Ownership in the
Broadcasting Services, Report and Order and Third
Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, 23 FCC Rcd
5922, FCC 07-217 (2008).

A person or entity holding an ownership interest in the
corporate stockholder of a corporate Respondent is
considered to have an attributable interest in the
Respondent ONLY IF that interest, when multiplied by
the corporate stockholder’s interest in the Respondent,
would account for 5% or more of the issued and
outstanding voting stock of the Respondent. For example,
where Corporation X owns stock accounting for 25% of
the Respondent’s votes, only Corporation X shareholders
holding 20 percent or more of the issued and outstanding
voting stock of Corporation X have a 5% or more indirect
interest in the Respondent (.25 x .20 = .05) and, therefore,
are considered to have an attributable interest in the
Respondent. In applying the multiplier, any entity holding
more than 50% of its subsidiary will be considered a
100% owner. For such ownership structures, report on
Form 323 only interests that amount to 5% or more of the
issued and outstanding voting stock of the Licensee after
the multiplier is applied. Where the 5% stock owner is a
partnership, each general partner and any limited partner
that is not insulated, regardless of the partnership interest,
is considered to have an attributable interest that must be
reported.

Part (a): This Question requires Respondents to enter
detailed information about ownership interests by
generating a series of subforms. Answer each question on
each subform. The first subform listing should be for the
Respondent itself. If the Respondent is not a natural
person, also list each of the officers, directors,
stockholders, non-insulated partners, members and other
persons or entities with a direct attributable interest in the
Respondent. (A “direct” interest is one that is not held
through any intervening companies or entities.) In the
case of vertical or indirect ownership structures, report
only those interests in the Respondent that also represent
an attributable interest in the Licensee or Permittee for
which the Report is being submitted.

Stock subject to stockholder cooperative voting
agreements accounting for 5% or more of the votes in a
corporate respondent will be treated as if held by a single
entity and any stockholder holding 5% or more of the
stock in that block is considered a holder of an attributable
interest.

List each person or entity with a direct attributable interest
in the Respondent separately. Entities that are part of an
organizational structure that includes holding companies
or other forms of indirect ownership must file separate
ownership reports. In such a structure do not report or file
separate reports for persons or entities that do not have an
attributable interest in the Licensee or Permittee for which
the report is being submitted.

If a single entity holds more than 50% of the voting stock,
and a simple majority is all that is required to control
corporate affairs, no other stockholder need be reported
for purposes of non-biennial filings of the Ownership
Report, unless that entity’s interest is attributable
under the Commission’s Equity/Debt Plus attribution
standard described below.

The following interests are attributable and the holder of
such interest should be reported in response to Question
3(a):

of making loans to, or acting as a surety for, the
business; and

An investment company, insurance company or trust
department of a bank is not considered a holder of an
attributable interest, and a Respondent may properly
certify that such entity’s interest is non-attributable (see
Question 3(b), below), IF its aggregated holding accounts
for less than 20% of the outstanding votes in the
Respondent AND IF such entity exercises no influence or
control over the corporation, directly or indirectly; and
such entity has no representatives among the officers and
directors of the corporation.

(7)

Notwithstanding conformance of the partnership
agreement to these criteria, the requisite certification
cannot be made IF the limited partner’s interest is
attributable under the Commission’s Equity/Debt Plus
attribution standard described below; or IF the
Respondent has actual knowledge of a material
involvement of a limited partner in the management or
operation of the media-related businesses of the
partnership. In the event that the Respondent cannot
certify as to the noninvolvement of a limited partner, the
limited partner will be considered as an attributable
interest holder and the interest must be reported.

If a PARTNERSHIP: All partners, including all limited
partners, are considered attributable interest holders.
However, a limited partner in a limited partnership is not
considered an attributable interest holder IF the limited
partner is not materially involved, directly or indirectly, in
the management or operation of the media-related
activities of the partnership and the Respondent so
certifies (see Question 3(b), below). Sufficient insulation
of a limited partner for purposes of this certification
would be assured if the limited partnership arrangement:
(1)

specifies that any exempt limited partner (if not a
natural person, its directors, officers, partners,
etc.) cannot act as an employee of the limited
partnership if his or her functions, directly or
indirectly, relate to the media enterprises of the
company;

(2)

bars any exempt limited partner from serving, in
any material capacity, as an independent
contractor or agent with respect to the
partnership’s media enterprises;

(3)

restricts any exempted limited partner from
communicating with the Licensee or the general
partner on matters pertaining to the day-to-day
operations of its business;

(4)

empowers the general partner to veto any
admissions of additional general partners admitted
by vote of the exempt limited partners;

(5)

prohibits any exempt limited partner from voting
on the removal of a general partner or limits this
right to situations where the general partner is
subject to bankruptcy proceedings, as described in
Sections 402 (4)-(5) of the Revised Uniform
Limited Partnership Act, is adjudicated
incompetent by a court of competent jurisdiction,
or is removed for cause, as determined by an
independent party;

(6)

bars any exempt limited partner from performing
any services to the limited partnership materially
relating to its media activities, with the exception

states, in express terms, that any exempt limited
partner is prohibited from becoming actively
involved in the management or operation of the
media businesses of the partnership.

If a LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY: The
Commission treats an LLC as a limited partnership, each
of whose members is considered to be an attributable
interest holder. However, where an LLC member is
insulated in the manner specified above with respect to a
limited partnership and where the relevant state statute
authorizing the LLC permits an LLC member to insulate
itself in accordance with the Commission’s criteria, that
LLC member is not considered an attributable interest
holder. In such a case, the Respondent should certify
“Yes” in response to Question 3(b).
Equity/Debt Plus Attribution Standard. Certain
interests held by substantial investors in, or creditors of,
the Respondent may also be attributable, and the investor
must be reported, if the interest falls within the
Commission’s equity/debt plus (“EDP”) attribution
standard. Under the EDP standard, the interest held is
attributable if, aggregating both equity and debt, it
exceeds 33 percent of the total asset value (all equity plus
all debt) of the Respondent – a broadcast station licensee,
cable television system, daily newspaper or other media
outlet subject to the Commission’s broadcast multiple
ownership or cross-ownership rules – AND the interest
holder also holds (1) an attributable interest in a media
outlet in the same market, or (2) supplies over 15 percent
of the total weekly broadcast programming hours of the
station in which the interest is held. For example, the
equity interest of an insulated limited partner in a limited
partnership Respondent would normally not be considered
attributable, but, under the EDP standard, that interest
would be attributable if the limited partner’s interest
exceeded 33 percent of the Respondent’s total asset value
AND the limited partner also held a 5 percent voting
interest in another radio or television station licensee in
the same market.

Part (e): If the Respondent seeks an attribution exemption
for any officer or director with duties unrelated to the
Licensee or Permittee, select “Yes” and enter the name
and title of the officer or director in the applicable fields.
If the answer selected is “Yes,” attach an exhibit
describing that individual’s duties and responsibilities,
and explaining why that individual’s interest should not be
attributed. Attach any such explanation as Exhibit 4.

In some cases an interest holder may exceed the 33
percent EDP threshold without triggering attribution
where the investment would enable an Eligible Entity (as
that term is defined by the Commission) to acquire a
broadcast station provided that: (1) the combined equity
and debt of the interest holder in the Eligible Entity is less
than 50 percent, or (2) the total debt of the interest holder
in the Eligible Entity does not exceed 80 percent of the
asset value of the station being acquired by the Eligible
Entity and the interest holder does not hold any equity
interest, option, or promise to acquire an equity interest in
the Eligible Entity or any related entity. See In re
Promoting Diversification of Ownership in the
Broadcasting Services, Report and Order and Third
Further Notice of Proposed Rule Making, 23 FCC Rcd
5922 (Mar. 5, 2008).

holder of an attributable interest and must be reported.
Where the 5% stock owner is itself a corporation, each of
its stockholders, directors and executive officers
(president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer or their
equivalents) is considered a holder of an attributable
interest, UNLESS the Respondent submits as an exhibit a

As used in Question 3, an attributable interest is an
ownership interest in or relationship to a Licensee which
will confer on its holder that degree of influence or
control over the Licensee sufficient to implicate the
Commission’s ownership rules. In responding to Question
3, Respondents should review the Commission’s multiple
ownership attribution policies and standards which are set
forth in the Notes to 47 C.F.R. Section 73.3555, as revised

number of 3060-0010.

Question 5: Licensee Ownership Structure Chart.
Licensees must include as an attachment a chart or similar
document showing the Licensee’s vertical or other
ownership structure including the Licensee and all
persons/entities that have attributable interests in the
Licensee. Any chart format is acceptable provided that it
(a) meets the technical requirements for the submission of
attachments via the Commission’s online filing system;
and (b) accurately depicts the Licensee’s complete
ownership structure, as described above. Non-Licensee
Respondents filing separate Form 323 Biennial Reports
should select “N/A” in response to this question. If the
ownership structure of the Licensee does not include
holding companies or other forms of indirect ownership,
the Licensee should select “N/A” in response to this
question.

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC or
Commission) is soliciting this information under authority of
Sections 154(i), 303, and 310 of the Communications Act of
1934, as amended, as part of its responsibilities that relate to
the ownership of commercial broadcast stations, including AM
and FM radio and television, as well as to interests in daily
newspapers that are subject to the Commission’s media
ownership rules. The Commission needs this information to
process FCC Form 323, “Ownership Report for Commercial
Broadcast Stations.”
The statutory authority under which the FCC requires filers to
comply with the requirements of FCC Form 323, “Ownership
Report for Commercial Broadcast Stations,” including the
submission of their personally identifiable information, is
derived from 47 C.F.R. Sections 73.3555, 73.3615, 73.6026,
and 74.797.

of 1982 or the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996.
A record from this system may be disclosed to any
Federal, state, or local agency to conduct an authorized
computer matching program in compliance with the
Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, to identify and locate
individuals who are delinquent in their repayment of
certain debts owed to the U.S. Government. A record
from this system may be used to prepare information on
items considered income for taxation purposes to be
disclosed to Federal, state, and local governments;

In each of these cases, the FCC will determine whether
disclosure of the records is compatible with the purpose for
which the records were collected.
