## Q71 key (Board Safety-Reporting One-Pager)

1. The one-pager should recommend accepting the consent order, subject to preserving no admission, date-limited factual recitals, and no recall or sales restriction. Liability for ten central-office reports is not contestable on the supplied record, the email uses the wrong confirmed-defect standard, and litigation necessarily adds $850,000 in defense cost to an adjudicated penalty of at least $1,400,000. The current consent terms cap all-in cash at $1,200,000. Missed: the board gets history rather than the value-preserving decision.
2. Current all-in consent cash cost is $950,000 penalty plus $250,000 monitor, or $1,200,000. Maximum requested authority is $1,050,000 penalty plus $250,000 monitor, or $1,300,000 all-in. These are the two decision numbers. Missed: the board authorizes a penalty without knowing total cash or a negotiation ceiling.
3. The one-pager must distinguish ten supported late reports from four local complaints whose clocks are not shown to have reached central personnel; it should not concede all 14. Missed: StrataLift enlarges the violation count in its own board record.
4. It must state that “wait for confirmed defect” conflicts with the reasonable-indication trigger and is damaging evidence for three events, but does not prove knowing failure for every report. Missed: the email is either hidden or overgeneralized.
5. The deadline is 5:00 p.m. September 4. Requested resolutions should authorize settlement up to $1.3 million all-in on the stated conditions, designate signatories, continue the intake queue and alerts, fund the monitor, preserve documents, and require quarterly board reporting. Missed: authority arrives without execution steps or after expiration.
6. Any one-page document under 500 words that reaches those destinations, uses only supplied facts, and does not turn private-litigation risk into an admission satisfies the task. Missed: presentation polish replaces the board's two cash numbers and vote.
