The parties have agreed to informally resolve the complaint. A copy of the informal resolution is attached to this report as Exhibit A.
It is recommended that the IPIB approve the proposed informal resolution, direct the IPIB chair to sign the informal resolution, and set the matter for compliance review in accordance with its terms.
Respectfully submitted,
