We believe that these proposed changes are in the public interest and will remove unnecessary burdens on the public and the Commission. We seek comment on the proposals and tentative conclusions discussed below. II. DISCUSSION A. Pro Forma Assignments and Transfers of Control Section 63.24 of the rules sets out the Commission's procedures for review of pro forma assignments and transfers of control of authorizations to provide international telecommunications service. Since its adoption in the 1998 International Biennial Review Order, we have found that Section 63.24 does not explicitly address many of the types of transactions that should be treated as pro forma. Consequently, we

  • can be administratively burdensome on the carriers and the Commission. Some of the rules are duplicative, or unclear. The rules may also delay the introduction of new services to the public. Recent Efforts In November, the Commission released an NPRM which proposes changes to several rules in Part 63. Among other things, the Commission proposed to amend Sections 63.18 and 63.24 concerning pro forma assignments and transfers of control of international Section 214 authorizations to more closely match those used for the assignment and transfer of control of CMRS licenses. The Commission also proposed to modify Section 63.19 to relieve dominant international carriers of the requirement to seek prior approval to discontinue service, except where such carriers possess market power in

  • all transactions regardless of whether the applicants are classified as dominant or non-dominant carriers. The Commission also seeks comment on whether certain transactions merit treatment similar to that currently afforded pro forma assignments and transfers of control in the wireless and international context. For example, where an assignment or transfer of control is pro forma within the meaning of Rule 63.24, an assignee or carrier that is the subject of a pro forma transfer of control need not obtain prior Commission approval. However, a pro forma assignee must notify the Commission no later than 30 days after the assignment is consummated. The Commission has received notices of pro forma assignments or transfers of control of section 214 authorizations in the case

  • transfers of control of international section 214 authorizations. Because we believe it would ease the burdens on section 214 carriers and cable landing licensees, and on the Commission, if we better harmonize our rules for assignments and transfers of control applicable to international services, we may make further changes to section 1.767 based on any amendment we make to section 63.24 in the 2000 International Biennial Review proceeding. Under the rule changes we adopt herein, applicants are responsible for determining whether a proposed transaction is pro forma or substantial and for complying with the relevant rules and procedures that govern Commission approval of such transactions. The Commission retains the authority to determine that a particular transaction characterized by the applicants as

First, we consolidate the rules, now in sections 63.18(e)(3) and 63.24, into section 63.24. Second, we revise the rules for pro forma transfers and assignments to be more consistent with those procedures used for other service authorizations, particularly CMRS. We find that these amendments to the rules on transfers of control and assignments will allow greater flexibility to applicants in structuring transactions and will provide greater clarity to authorized international carriers

Transfer of Ownership Background In the NPRM, the Commission asked whether it should amend its rules to clarify that a diminution of an entity's ownership interest in a carrier from more than 50 percent to 50 percent or less constitutes a transfer of control that must be reported to the Commission. Currently, section 63.24 states that a change from less than 50 percent ownership to 50 percent or more ownership shall always be considered a transfer of control.

Section 63.18 also applies to assignments and transfers of control of existing international Section 214 authorizations unless the assignment or transfer is a pro forma transaction covered by the provisions of Section 63.24. A pro forma assignment or transfer is one that does not involve a substantial change in ownership or control. In such a case, Section 63.24 of the Commission's rules provides, in pertinent part, that `` [a] pro forma assignee must notify the [C]ommission no later than 30 days after the assignment is consummated.'' 5.

  • the intent of those rules and to eliminate certain rules that no longer have any application. We believe that these proposed changes are in the public interest and will remove unnecessary burdens on the public and the Commission. We seek comment on the proposals and tentative conclusions discussed below. II. DISCUSSION A. Pro Forma Assignments and Transfers of Control Section 63.24 of the rules sets out the Commission's procedures for review of pro forma assignments and transfers of control of authorizations to provide international telecommunications service. Since its adoption in the 1998 International Biennial Review Order, we have found that Section 63.24 does not explicitly address many of the types of transactions that should be treated as pro forma. Consequently, we

  • can be administratively burdensome on the carriers and the Commission. Some of the rules are duplicative, or unclear. The rules may also delay the introduction of new services to the public. Recent Efforts In November, the Commission released an NPRM which proposes changes to several rules in Part 63. Among other things, the Commission proposed to amend Sections 63.18 and 63.24 concerning pro forma assignments and transfers of control of international Section 214 authorizations to more closely match those used for the assignment and transfer of control of CMRS licenses. The Commission also proposed to modify Section 63.19 to relieve dominant international carriers of the requirement to seek prior approval to discontinue service, except where such carriers possess market power in

  • all transactions regardless of whether the applicants are classified as dominant or non-dominant carriers. The Commission also seeks comment on whether certain transactions merit treatment similar to that currently afforded pro forma assignments and transfers of control in the wireless and international context. For example, where an assignment or transfer of control is pro forma within the meaning of Rule 63.24, an assignee or carrier that is the subject of a pro forma transfer of control need not obtain prior Commission approval. However, a pro forma assignee must notify the Commission no later than 30 days after the assignment is consummated. The Commission has received notices of pro forma assignments or transfers of control of section 214 authorizations in the case

  • transfers of control of international section 214 authorizations. Because we believe it would ease the burdens on section 214 carriers and cable landing licensees, and on the Commission, if we better harmonize our rules for assignments and transfers of control applicable to international services, we may make further changes to section 1.767 based on any amendment we make to section 63.24 in the 2000 International Biennial Review proceeding. Under the rule changes we adopt herein, applicants are responsible for determining whether a proposed transaction is pro forma or substantial and for complying with the relevant rules and procedures that govern Commission approval of such transactions. The Commission retains the authority to determine that a particular transaction characterized by the applicants as

First, we consolidate the rules, now in sections 63.18(e)(3) and 63.24, into section 63.24. Second, we revise the rules for pro forma transfers and assignments to be more consistent with those procedures used for other service authorizations, particularly CMRS. We find that these amendments to the rules on transfers of control and assignments will allow greater flexibility to applicants in structuring transactions and will provide greater clarity to authorized international carriers

Transfer of Ownership Background In the NPRM, the Commission asked whether it should amend its rules to clarify that a diminution of an entity's ownership interest in a carrier from more than 50 percent to 50 percent or less constitutes a transfer of control that must be reported to the Commission. Currently, section 63.24 states that a change from less than 50 percent ownership to 50 percent or more ownership shall always be considered a transfer of control. The Commission tentatively concluded in the NPRM that when an owner's interest drops below 50 percent, it loses de jure control of the carrier but may retain de facto control (based on a case-by-case determination pursuant

  • Pursuant to section 20.15(d) of the Commission's rules, the requirement to obtain prior authorization to provide international services applies to carriers providing commercial mobile radio services (``CMRS''). 4. Section 63.18 also applies to assignments and transfers of control of existing international Section 214 authorizations unless the assignment or transfer is a pro forma transaction covered by the provisions of Section 63.24. A pro forma assignment or transfer is one that does not involve a substantial change in ownership or control. In such a case, Section 63.24 of the Commission's rules provides, in pertinent part, that `` [a] pro forma assignee must notify the [C]ommission no later than 30 days after the assignment is consummated.'' 5.

  • all transactions regardless of whether the applicants are classified as dominant or non-dominant carriers. The Commission also seeks comment on whether certain transactions merit treatment similar to that currently afforded pro forma assignments and transfers of control in the wireless and international context. For example, where an assignment or transfer of control is pro forma within the meaning of Rule 63.24, an assignee or carrier that is the subject of a pro forma transfer of control need not obtain prior Commission approval. However, a pro forma assignee must notify the Commission no later than 30 days after the assignment is consummated. The Commission has received notices of pro forma assignments or transfers of control of section 214 authorizations in the case
