ZTE’s chairman asked forgiveness Friday to personnel and consumers for the business’s previous habits after the Chinese telecom giant struck an offer today to pay a $1 billion charge to the United States.

The offer, crafted in order to raise a debilitating United States restriction on the business, needs ZTE to revamp its management and enable a US-chosen compliance group to be set up for 10 years.

Chairman Yin Yimin composed a memo to personnel Friday stating that ZTE will go back to company as quickly as possible and will hold liable those accountable for the infraction that caused the restriction, a business source informed Reuters.

“This issue reflects problems that exist with our firm’s compliance culture and at management level,” he composed, according to Reuters’ source.

Yin blamed the occurrence on a couple of business leaders and staff members, keeping in mind that ZTE paid a “disastrous price” for a restriction that led to “huge losses for the company.”

ZTE didn’t right away react to CNET’s ask for remark.

The United States restriction was available in May, after the federal government figured out that ZTE broke regards to its 2017 settlement through its failure to fire staff members who unlawfully delivered United States devices to Iran and North Korea.

With the restriction in location, ZTE closed down the majority of its operations up until United States President Donald Trump tweeted that he desired the Commerce Department to deal with getting the restriction raised.
