                                 Petition to Adopt Conditions to
                                  Authorizations and Licenses

       The United States Department of Justice ("DOJ") and the Federal Bureau of Investigation

("FBI") respectfully submit this Petition to Adopt Conditions to Authorizations and Licenses

("Petition"), pursuant to 47 C.E.R. § 1.41.

       Through this Petition, the DOJ and the FBI hereby advise the Federal Communications

Commission ("FCC" or "Commission") that the DOJ and the FBI have no objection to the FCC

granting the assignment of authorizations and licenses requested in the applications filed in the

above—referenced matter, provided that the Commission conditions the assignment of the

authorizations and licenses on compliance with the terms of the Agreement (attached hereto as

Exhibifc 1) between Mobile Satellite Ventures LLC ("MSV LLC"), Mobile Satellite Ventures

Subsidiary LLC ("MSV Sub") ("collectively MSV"), Motient Corporation ("Motient"), TMI

Communications and Company, Limited Partnership ("TMI"), the DOJ, and the FBI.

       Motient Services Inc. ("MSI"), TMI, and MSV have filed applications pursuant to Section

214 and 310(b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act"), for assignment of

authorizations and licenses pertaining to the operation of the Mobile Satellite Services systems of

MSI and TMI. According to the applicants, MSV Sub will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Mobile


Satellite Ventures LP. (the successor to MSV LLC), which will have foreign ownership in excess

of the 25% benchmark of Section 301(b)(4). In addition, MSV Sub proposes to use a fixed earth

station and switching facility in Ottawa, Canada but to route domestic communications through a

United States point of presence.

        As the Commission is aware, the DOJ and the FBI have previously noted that their ability

to satisfy their obligations to protect the national security, to enforce the 1#ws and preserve the safety

of the public can be significantly impacted by transactions in which foreign entities will offer

communication service in the United States. In such cases, the DOJ and the FBI have stated that

foreign involvement in the provision of U.S. communications must not be permitted to impair the

U.S. government‘s ability to satisfy its obligations to U.S. citizens to: (1) carry out lawfully—

authorized electronic surveillance of domestic U.S. calls or calls that originate or terminate in the

United States; (2) prevent and detect foreign—based espionage and electronic surveillance of U.S.

communications, which would jeopardize the security and privacy of such communications, and

could foreclose prosecution of individuals involved in such activities; and (3) satisfy the National

Emergency Preparedness Act and U.S. infrastructure protection requirements. To address these

concerns, the DOJ and the FBI have negotiated agreements. The agreements reached in the past

have been filed by stipulation among the parties with the Commission, and the Commission has

conditioned its grants of approval on compliance'with the terms of the agreements.‘



   ‘ See, eg., Memorandum Opinion and Order, Merger ofMCI Communications Corp. and British
   Telecommunications, ple, 12 FCC Red 15,351 (1997) (agreement adopted by the Commission, but
   the merger did not take place); Memorandum Opinion and Order, AirTouch Communications, Inc.

        On April 18, 2001, the DOJ, FBI, MSI, TML, and MSVfiled a petition with the Commission

to defer the grant of the applications in the above—referenced matter pending a resolution by Motient,

TMI, MSV and the DOJ and the FBI of those aspects of the applications that could give rise to

national security, law enforcement, and public safety concerns. The parties were at the time engaged

in negotiations to reach an agreement that would ensure that national security, law enforcement and

public safety concerns were adequately addvressed.

        On November 14, 2001, the DOJ and the FBI entered into an Agreement with Mofdent, TMI,

and MSV.     The Agreement is intended to ensure that the DOJ, the FBI 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 DOJ and the FBI hereby advise the Commission that the DOJ and the FBI

have no objection to the FCC granting the assignment of authorizations and licenses that are the

subject of the applications filed in this matter, provided that the Commission conditions the

assignment of authorizations and licenses on compliance with the terms of the Agreement between

the DOJ, the FBI, Motient, TMI, and MSV.
