March 2025, the Commission extended the Company's deadline to file an answer to the
Complaint, in part to allow settlement discussions. On April 7, the Company filed an answer.
During this time, Staff and the Company met in person and virtually to discuss the circumstances
surrounding the allegations in the Formal Complaint, possible resolution of the issues, and other
matters. On April 17, 2025, the Company and Staff executed the Stipulation and Settlement.

compromise of the matters addressed in the Formal Complaint; that approval of the Stipulation

without material change or condition; and
