        SatCom Systems, Incorporated ("SatCom") hereby applies, pursuant to Section 214 of the;

Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. § 214, and Section 63.18 of the

Commission‘s Rules, 47 C.F.R. § 63.18, for authority to provide mobile satelllite services via the

MSAT—1 satellite.‘ The public interest in more competitive and economical international

communication services is well established and has been addressed by the Commission in

numerous decisions. SatCom therefore submits that streamlined grant ofthis application is in the

public interest.




        §          MSAT—1 is a Canadian—licensed satellite, operated by TMI Communications and
Company, Limited Partnership (TMI).                        '


II.    Section 63.18 Information

       In accordance with Section 63.18 of the Commission‘s Rules, the following information

is submitted:


       (a)      The applicant‘s name, address and telephone nu_    »er areas follows:

                SatCom Systems, Incorporated
                2801 Empire Avenue
                Burbank, California 91504
                (877) 728—2668

       (b)      The applicant is a corporation organized under the laws of Nevada.

       (c)      Correspondence concerning this application should be sent to:

                Gregory C. Staple
                R. Edward Price
                Vinson & Elkins L.L.P.
                1455 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W.
                Washington, D.C. 20004—1008

                with a copy to:

                Tom D. Soumas, Jr.
                President

                2801 Empire Avenue
                Burbank, California 91504


       (d)      The applicant does not currently hold Section 214 authority.

       (e)      The applicant requests Section 214 authority under Section 63.18(e)(4) of the
                Commission‘s Rules to provide international common carrier services via the
                Canadian—licensed MSAT—1 satellite operated by TMI. The FCC has previously
                determined that the public interest is served by authorizing U.S. earth station
                operators, such as SatCom, to provide service via the MSAT—1 satellite. See
                SatCom Systems, Inc., et al., FCC 99—344, released November 30, 1999.

                enforcement and public safety interests are protected, SatCom agrees that

                                                 2


        international common carrier service provided via MSAT—1 will be subject to the
        September 10, 1999 Agreement between TMI and the U.S. Government which is
        appended to the Order as Appendix A.

        The applicant also certifies that it will comply with the terms and conditions
        contained in Sections 63.21 and 63.22 of the Commission‘s Rules.

(£)     Not applicable.

(g)     This application doesnot involve any new construction and, therefore, is
        categorically excluded from environmental processing pursuant to Section 1.1306
        of the Commission‘s Rules.

(b)     The applicant is 100% owned by Tom D. Soumas, Jr., 2801 Empire Avenue,
        Burbank, California 91504, a U.S. citizen whose principal business is
        telecommunications.

(i)—(m) The applicant certifies that it is not affiliated with any foreign carriers.

(n)     The applicant certifies that it has not agreed to accept special concessions, as that :
        term is defined in Section 63.14(b) of the Commission‘s Rules, directly or
        indirectly from any foreign carrier with respect to any U.S. international route
        where the foreign carrier possesses sufficient market power on the foreign endof
        the route to adversely affect competition in the U.S. market and will not enter into
        such agreements in the future.

(0)    In accordance with the Anti—Drug Abuse Act of 1988, 21 U.S.C. § 862, and
       Sections 1.2001—1.2003 of the Commission‘s Rules, 47 C.F.R. §§ 1.2001—1.2003,
       the applicant hereby certifies that no party to this application is subject to a denial
       of U.S. federal benefits pursuant to Section 5301 of the Anti—Drug Abuse Act of
       1988.

(P)    This application is entitled to streamlined processing under Section 63.12 of the
       Commission‘s Rules because the applicant is not affiliated with any other carriers
       and is not seeking authority to provide International Simple Resale along routes
       that have not been authorized by the Commission.


IIL.   Conclusion

       In view of the information stated above, expeditious grant of this application is warranted

and would serve the public interest, convenience and necessity.

                                          Respectfully submitted,
