Pursuant to Section 63.12 of the rules, these Section 214 applications will be granted 14 days after the date of this public notice (see 47 C.F.R. § 1.4 regarding computation of time), and the applicant may commence operations on the 15th day, unless the Commission has informed the applicant in writing, within 14 days after the date of this public notice, that the application, on further examination, has been deemed ineligible for streamlined processing. Communications between outside parties and Commission staff concerning these applications are permitted subject to the Commission's rules for "permit-but-disclose proceedings." See 47 C.F.R. § 1.1206. An application can be removed from streamlined processing only in the sound discretion of Commission staff. The filing of comments or a petition to deny will not necessarily result in an application being deemed ineligible for streamlined processing. The petitions for declaratory ruling listed below are for authority under Section 310(b) of the Communications Act, 47 U.S.C. § 310(b), to exceed the foreign ownership limits applicable to common carrier radio licensees. The requested rulings will be granted 14 days after the date of this public notice, effective the next day, unless the application is formally opposed or the Commission has informed the applicant in writing, within 14 days of the date of this public notice, that the application, on further examination, has been deemed ineligible for streamlined processing. For this purpose, a formal opposition shall be sufficient only if it is received by the Commission and by the applicant within 14 days of the date of this public notice and its caption and text make it unmistakably clear that it is intended to be a formal opposition.

ITC-T/C-20150929-00230 E OnStar, LLC Transfer of Control Current Licensee: OnStar, LLC FROM: General Motors Company (UST Controlled BoD) TO: General Motors Company Application filed for consent to the transfer of control of international section 214 authorization, ITC-214-20070823-00346, held by OnStar, LLC (OnStar), a Delaware limited liability company, from the previous board of directors of its parent company General Motors Company (GM), a publicly-traded Delaware corporation, to the current board of directors of GM. GM's board of directors was previously controlled by the United States Treasury (UST) due to its majority shareholder interests and power to designate more than half of the members of GM's initial board of directors. GM is now controlled by its diverse shareholder base and current board of directors. Applicants state that the transfer of control from the previous board of directors of GM to the current board of directors occurred without the Commission's knowledge or prior approval when the UST divested its ownership interest and GM became controlled by its diverse shareholder base and current board of directors, who were elected after the UST divested all of its shares. Applicant states that on July 16, 2009, the Commission granted consent to the transaction that permitted General Motors Corporation, Debtor-In-Possession (GM-DIP), to transfer its assets, including international Section 214 authorization, ITC-214-20070823-00346, to GM, whose board of directors was controlled by the UST. Subsequently, GM-DIP exited bankruptcy protection in July 2009, and on November 24, 2009, OnStar notified the Commission of an internal corporate restructuring. Upon consummation of the restructuring, OnStar was indirectly controlled by four entities: (1) UST, which held 60.8 percent of GM's outstanding shares; (2) UAW Retiree Medical Benefits Trust (VEBA), which held 17.5 percent of GM's outstanding shares; (3) 7176384 Canada, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Canadian Development Investment Corporation (CDIC), which held 11.7 percent of GM's outstanding shares; and (4) Motors Liquidation Company (Old GM), which held 10 percent of GM's outstanding shares. On November 17, 2010, the UST's interest in GM's outstanding stock fell below 50 percent when the UST sold shares in GM's initial public offering, and on November 18, 2010, the UST no longer had the power to designate nominees for election to GM's board of directors. The UST sold its remaining shares in GM in 2013. CDIC divested its remaining shares in GM in 2015. Old GM and VEBA reduced their holdings in GM's outstanding stock, and currently each holds less than 10 percent of GM's outstanding stock. GM's outstanding stock is now widely held, and there are no 10 percent or greater equity or voting interests. The following members of GM's current board of directors were elected at GM's 2015 Annual Meeting: Mary T. Barra, Joseph J. Ashton, Stephen J. Girsky, Linda R. Gooden, Joseph Jimenez, Kathryn V. Marinello, James J. Mulva, Admr. Michel G. Mullen, (USN ret.), Patricia F. Russo, Thomas M. Schoewe, Theodore M. Solso, all U.S. citizens, and Carol M. Stephenson, who is a Canadian citizen. Applicant filed a request for Special Temporary Authority (STA), ITC-STA-20151022-00243, related to this transaction, which was granted on October 30, 2015. Page 2 of 3
