Pro Forma Assignment of Licenses General Motors Research Corporation FCC Form 702 Description of Transaction and Public Interest Statement The applicants seek Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) consent to the proposed pro forma assignment of the experimental licenses held by OnStar, LLC (“Assignor”) to General Motors Research Corporation (“Assignee”). Both the Assignor and Assignee are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of General Motors Corporation (“GM”). Pursuant to Section 5.59(a)(3), the assignment requires Commission consent because the Assignee will have “the legal right to control the use and operation of the [experimental licenses].” 47 C.F.R. § 5.59(a)(3). The licensee for the experimental licenses will change but the experimental licenses will continue to be held by an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of GM. The parties submit that the grant of this application is in the public interest, convenience and necessity, as it will allow for the continued and uninterrupted development and manufacturing of innovative wireless equipment and/or services, including, for example, services that facilitate the safety of automobile passengers. This assignment is intended to consolidate the experimental FCC licenses held by GM and its subsidiaries with the Assignee. Consolidating the licenses will allow GM to more efficiently assess the experimental licenses available to its researchers, thereby streamlining the research process and licensee administrative duties. Accordingly, a grant of this application would serve the public interest.
