November 20, 2008 (“Agreement”), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A. A proposed condition is attached as Exhibit A to the Agreement. In the above‐captioned matter, T&T Airtime seeks Commission approval of applications for authorizations under Sections 214 and 310(d) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (“Act”). Because T&T Airtime has foreign ownership in excess of twenty‐five percent, T&T Airtime also requests a declaratory ruling from the Commission under Section 310(b)(4) of the Act2 that grant of its applications is consistent with the public interest. 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 to the extent that foreign entities own or operate a part of the U.S. telecommunications system, or foreign‐located facilities are used to provide domestic telecommunications services to U.S. customers. The Commission has long recognized that national security, law enforcement, and public safety issues and concerns are part of its public interest analysis in matters such as this,3 and has accorded deference to the views of other U.S. government agencies 2 47 U.S.C. § 310(b)(4). 3 See Rules and Policies on Foreign Participation in the U.S. Telecommunications Market, Report and Order and Order on Reconsideration, 12 FCC Rcd 23891, 23919‐21 ¶¶ 61‐66 (1997) (“Foreign Participation Order”); see also Amendment of the Commissionʹs Regulatory Policies to Allow Non‐U.S. Licensed Space Stations to Provide Domestic and International Satellite Service in the United States, Report and Order, 12 FCC Rcd 24094, 24100 ¶ 15 2

with expertise in those areas.4 After discussions with representatives of T&T Airtime in connection with the above‐referenced applications, the Agencies have concluded that the commitments set forth in the Agreement will help to ensure that the Agencies and other entities with responsibility for enforcing the law, protecting the national security, and preserving public safety can proceed appropriately to satisfy those responsibilities. Accordingly, the Agencies hereby advise the Commission that they have no objection to the Commission granting the above‐referenced applications for authorization provided that the Commission conditions its grant of such authorizations on compliance by T&T Airtime with the commitments set forth in the Agreement. The Agencies are authorized to state that the applicants do not object to the grant of this Petition. Respectfully submitted, /s/ Richard C. Sofield /s/ Stewart A. Baker _ Richard C.
