From Graham's post:

with respect to sales of television converters (which includes the ViewControlTM V-Chip Decoder) and ASIC devices in the United States, TVE must realize sales of converters or ASIC devices of at least 500,000 units prior to the 12 month anniversary of the FCC Compliance Date, and 1 million units during each subsequent 12 month
period. If TVE fails to meet these requirements, subject to TVE's ability to cure such default as described below, VCCE may terminate the licence with respect to television converters and ASIC devices; .

As for the compliance date:

the FCC announced it is requiring that manufacturers include v-chip technology on at least half of their product models sold in the U.S. with a picture screen 13 inches or greater by July 1, 1999, and the remaining half by January 1, 2000.

So which date is considered "the compliance date" ? If the latter, 12 mth anniversary is Jan 1, 2001........Ben
