                           PETITION TO ADOPT CONDITIONS TO
                             AUTHORIZATIONS AND LICENSES

              The Department of Homeland Security ("DHS"), with the concurrence of the

Department of Justice ("DOJ") and the Federal Bureau of Investigation ("FBI") (collectively, the

"Agencies"), respectfully submit this Petition to Adopt Conditions to Authorizations and

Licenses ("Petition"), pursuant to Section 1.41 of the Federal Communications Commission

("FECC" or "Commission") rules.‘ Through this Petition, the Agencies advise the Commussion

that they have no objection to the Commission granting its consent in the above—referenced

proceeding, provided that the Commission conditions the grant on Vyke AS f/k/a Maskina AS

("Vyke") abiding by the commitments and undertakings contained in its June 14, 2007 letter to

Sigal P. Mandelker, Stewart A. Baker, and Elaine N. Lammert (the "Letter") attached hereto as

Exhibit 1.

              In the above—captioned proceedings, Maskina Communications, Inc. f/k/a


1      47 C.F.R. § 1.41.


Transcom Communications, Inc. ("‘Maskina") and Vyke (together the "Applicants") have sought

Commission consent to the transfer of control of Maskina and its associated licenses to Vyke.

               As the Commission is aware, the Agencies have taken the position that their

ability to satisfy their obligations to protect the national security, enforce the laws, and preserve

the safety of the public could be impaired by transactions in which foreign entities will own or

operate a part of the U.S. telecommunications system, or in which foreign—located facilities will

be used to provide domestic telecommunications services to U.S. customers. After discussions

with representatives of Maskina and Vyke in connection with the proposed transfer of control of

Maskina to Vyke, the Agencies have concluded that the commitments set forth in the Letter will

help ensure that the Agencies and other entities with responsibility for enforcing the law,

protecting the national security, and preserving public safety can proceed in a legal, secure, and

confidential manner to satisfy these responsibilities. Accordingly, the Agencies hereby advise

the Commission that they have no objection to the Commission granting the above—referenced

applications, provided that the Commission conditions its consent on compliance by Vyke with

the commitments set forth in the Letter.
