In each of fiscal years 2017 through 2025, section 628 of division E of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2016 ( Public Law 114–113 ; 129 Stat. 2469) applies to a joint sales agreement regardless of any change in the ownership of the stations involved in such agreement. In the case of a joint sales agreement to which such section applies, while such section is in effect, the Federal Communications Commission— may not require the termination or modification of such agreement as a condition of the transfer or assignment of a station license or the transfer of station ownership or control; and upon request of the transferee or assignee of the station license, shall eliminate any such condition that was imposed after March 31, 2014, and permit the licensees of the stations whose advertising was jointly sold pursuant to such agreement to enter into a new joint sales agreement on substantially similar terms and conditions as the prior agreement.
In this section, the term “joint sales agreement” has the meaning given such term in Note 2(k) to section 73.3555 of title 47, Code of Federal Regulations, and where a joint sales agreement is part of a broader contract, this section shall be limited to the joint sales agreement portion of such contract.
