` SEIZURE AND FORFEITURE ORDER
`
`The U.S. Bureau of Customs and Border Protection (“Customs”) has informed the
`
`Commission that (i) the owner, importer or consignee (or the agent of such person) of certain
`
`earpiece devices covered by a general exclusion order attempted to import the articles into the
`
`United States; (ii) Customs denied entry of the articles into the United States by reason of the
`
`general exclusion order; and (iii) upon such denial of entry, Customs provided the owner,
`
`importer, or consignee of the articles (or the agent of such person) with written notice of the
`
`aforesaid exclusion order and the fact that seizure and forfeiture would result from any further
`
`attempt to import the articles into the United States. The Commission having determined, based
`
`on these and other documents provided by Customs, that the issuance of a seizure and forfeiture
`
`order concerning the articles would be appropriate pursuant to section 337(i) of the Tariff Act of
`
`1930 (19 U.S.C. § 1337(i)), it is hereby ORDERED:
`
`1.
`
`Earpiece Devices and Components Thereof that are imported in violation of the
`
`general exclusion order issued in the above-captioned investigation are to be seized and forfeited
`
`to the United States, if imported by the following firm: HRE Network Company Ltd., RM A,
`
`8/F Excelsior Building, 68-76 Sha Tsui Road, Tsuen Wan, NT Hong Kong, or any affiliated
`
`
`
`
`
`companies, parents, subsidiaries, or other related business entities, or any of their successors or
`
`
`
`assigns.

`
`The Secretary shall serve copies of this order on the Secretary of the Treasury;
`
`U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Washington, DC; U.S. Customs and Border Protection,
`
`Long Beach, California 90802; the firm listed in paragraph 1 above; and counsel for Bose
