ISP-PDR-20060221-00003 P Telemetrix Inc. Petition for Declaratory Ruling Telemetrix Inc. ("Telemetrix" or the "Petitioner") requests a declaratory ruling that it is in the public interest to permit indirect foreign ownership of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Tracy Corporation II ("Tracy II"), in excess of the 25 percent benchmark set forth in section 310(b)(4) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act"). Tracy II holds twenty-eight (28) Commercial Mobile Radio Service licenses. Specifically, Tracy II holds a Personal Communications Service license for Basic Trading Area ("BTA") 411, KNLF407, which serves the geographic area of Scottsbluff, Nebraska and western Wyoming; and twenty-seven (27) paging and mobile telephone licenses serving various locations in Western Nebraska, Eastern Wyoming, and Northeastern Colorado. Telemetrix filed its petition in connection with a pending application for consent to transfer control of Telemetrix and its subsidiary, Tracey II, to a group of shareholders that will consist of certain existing foreign shareholders of Telemetrix and new foreign investors. See ULS File Number 0002156736. Telemetrix requests that the Commission approve the 70.76 percent indirect foreign ownership of Tracy II that would result from the proposed transfer of control. According to the petition, Tracy II is a Nebraska corporation, and Telemetrix is a publicly-held Delaware corporation. Upon consummation of the transaction, foreign ownership of Telemetrix will be held as follows: (1) Hartford Holdings Ltd. (8.30%) and certain related individuals and entities (in the aggregate, an additional 2.20%); (2) Becker Capital Management LLC ("BCM") (23.10%); (3) Tower Gate Finance Ltd. ("TGF") (11.09%); and (4) Nyssen LP (26.07%). Hartford Holdings is a Cayman Islands, British West Indies corporation, wholly owned and controlled by Mr. William Becker, a citizen of Canada. BCM is a Colorado limited liability company whose sole members are Mr. Becker and his sons, Larry Becker and Lorn Becker, both of whom also are citizens of Canada. TGF is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tower Gate Limited, both of which are organized under the laws of the United Kingdom. Tower Gate Limited is majority owned and controlled by Matthew Hudson, a U.K. citizen. Nyssen LP is a U.K. limited partnership that is controlled by Mr. Hudson, and his wife, Katherine Hudson, who also is a U.K. citizen. The Petitioner asserts that, pursuant to the rules and policies established by the Commission's Foreign Participation Order, 12 FCC Rcd 18158 (2000), the indirect foreign ownership of Tracey II in excess of the 25 percent benchmark in Section 310(b)(4) of the Act is consistent with the public interest.

Pursuant to the proposed transaction, Albertsons, Inc. will merge with and into Supervalu Inc., which is a publicly-traded Delaware corporation. Supervalu will then transfer its 100 percent ownership interest in U.S. Satellite to Supervalu's new direct, wholly-owned subsidiary, New Albertson's Inc. Barclays PLC, a publicly-held U.K. company, holds an indirect 12 percent ownership interest in Supervalu Inc. through its wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary, Barclays Global Investors, N.A. There are no other 10% or greater ownership interests in Supervalu Inc.
