Q Wireless, LLC (Q Wireless) and Metro Fibernet, LLC (MFN) (together, "Petitioners") jointly petition the Commission for a declaratory ruling
("Petition"), pursuant to section 1.990(a)(1) of the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R. § 1.990(a)(1), that it would serve the public interest to allow Q
Wireless to exceed the 25 percent foreign ownership benchmark in section 310(b)(4) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Act"), 47 U.S.C. § 310(b)(4).  According to the Petition, Q Wireless holds one nationwide, Wireless Internet Service Provider (WISP) license,
WQLN535, which is regulated on a common carrier basis.  Petitioners have filed the instant Petition in connection with an application seeking
consent to the pro forma transfer of control of Q Wireless, a Nevada limited liability company, to MFN, a Nevada limited liability company
(ULS File No. 0006217800).  MFN is a wholly-owned direct subsidiary of MetroNet Holdings, LLC (MetroNet Holdings), a Delaware limited
liability company.
According to the Petition, Albert E. Cinelli and John P. Cinelli, both U.S. citizens, together have de jure control and exercise de facto control of
Q Wireless (holding 63 percent and 19 percent of its membership units, respectively).  No other individual or entity currently holds, directly or
indirectly, a 10 percent or greater equity or voting interest in Q Wireless.  Upon closing the proposed pro forma transfer of control, Q Wireless
would be wholly owned, directly and indirectly, by MFN and MetroNet Holdings, respectively.
The Petition states that Albert E. Cinelli and John P. Cinelli together have de jure control and exercise de facto control of MetroNet Holdings
(holding 42 percent and 13 percent of its membership units, respectively).  MetroNet Holdings' remaining membership units are held by other
U.S. investors (an aggregate 12.57%, with none holding individually a 10% or greater interest or a controlling interest);  Oak Hill Capital
Partners III, L.P. (Oak Hill III), a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (24%); Oak Hill Capital Management Partners III, L.P. (Oak Hill
Management), a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (1.3%); MFN A Corp, a Delaware corporation (6.19%); and MFN B Corp, a
Delaware corporation (0.94%).  Oak Hill III, Oak Hill Management, MFN A Corp, and MFN B Corp are all controlled indirectly, through a series
of intermediate entities organized in the Cayman Islands, by OHCP MGP III, LTD (OHCP MGP III), a Cayman Islands exempted company that
is, in turn, controlled by a Board comprised of J. Taylor Crandall, Stephen B. Grubar, and Denis J. Navden, all of whom are U.S. citizens.
Petitioners state that none of the interests held directly or indirectly in MetroNet Holdings, including interests held by limited partners of the Oak
Hill entities, are insulated within the meaning of section 1.993 of the Commission's rules.
Pursuant to section 1.991(i) of the rules, the Petitioners request that the Commission specifically approve the following foreign equity and voting
interests, in excess of five percent, that are held directly or indirectly in MetroNet Holdings, the proposed controlling U.S. parent of Q-Wireless:
OHCP MGP III (32.43% voting and less-than-1% equity interest);
OHCP MGP Partners III, L.P. (25.3% voting and less-than-1% equity interest);
OHCP GenPar III, L.P. (GenPar) (25.3% voting and less-than-1% equity interest);
Oak Hill III (24% voting and 24% equity interest); and
Oak Hill Capital Partners III (AIV I), L.P. (AIV I) (6.19% voting and 6.19% equity interest).
Petitioners also request specific approval for the foreign limited partnership interests held in GenPar, Oak Hill III, and AIV I.  Because their
interests are uninsulated, each foreign limited partner is attributed with the same voting interest in MetroNet Holdings that is attributed to the
limited partnership in which it has invested.  Thus, each foreign limited partner of GenPar, Oak Hill III, and AIV I is considered to hold a 25.3
percent, 24 percent, and 6.19 percent voting interest in MetroNet Holdings, respectively.  Petitioners have identified each of the foreign limited
partners, including each partner's citizenship, principal business, and respective equity interest in GenPar, Oak Hill III, and/or AIV I.
Pursuant to section 1.991(k) of the rules, Petitioners additionally seek advance approval for the Oak Hill entities named in the Petition to increase
their aggregate equity and voting interests in MetroNet Holdings from the current 32.43 percent equity and voting interest up to and including a
non-controlling 40 percent equity and voting interest, with no foreign limited partner acquiring (through the investor's equity interests in the
respective Oak Hill entity(ies)) an aggregate indirect, non-controlling equity interest in MetroNet Holdings in excess of five percent.
Petitioners assert that the public interest would be served by permitting foreign ownership of Q-Wireless to exceed the 25 percent benchmark in
section 310(b)(4), as described in the Petition.
Interested parties may file comments on or before July 17, 2014, and reply comments on or before July 24, 2014.

ISP-PDR-20140502-00002 E
Telecom North America Inc. (TNA or "Petitioner") requests a declaratory ruling under section 310(b)(4) of the Communications Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Act"), that the proposed 50 percent ownership of TNA by Knowroaming Ltd. (KRL), a Canadian corporation, comports with the
public interest.
TNA wholly owns and controls Telecom North America Mobile, Inc. (TNA-Mobile), a common carrier wireless licensee.  TNA and TNA-Mobile
are both organized in Nevada.  TNA has filed the instant petition in connection with its application for consent to transfer to KRL a 50 percent
(negative) controlling interest in TNA-Mobile's Personal Communications Service (PCS) license covering Cedar County, Missouri (ULS File No.
0006265860).  TNA-Mobile also has pending an application for consent to a spectrum manager leasing arrangement for a portion of a cellular
radio license covering rural areas of Nevada (ULS File No. 0005459553), and a companion section 310(b)(4) petition that seeks approval for the
new geographic service area in Nevada that would be covered by the leased spectrum.  See Non-Streamlined International Applications/Petitions
Accepted for Filing, Public Notice, Report No. TEL-01651NS, rel. Jan. 15, 2014 (File No. ISP-PDR-20131213-00012).  TNA requests that we
consider both petitions for declaratory ruling concurrently.
Petitioner notes that it has previously sought and obtained a section 310(b)(4) ruling pursuant to the rules and policies established in the
Commission's Foreign Participation Order, 12 FCC Rcd 23891 (1997), Order on Reconsideration, 15 FCC Rcd 18158 (2000).  That ruling
approved the foreign ownership of TNA in excess of the 25 percent benchmark in section 310(b)(4) by Mr. Johannes Gottschalk, a German
citizen and permanent U.S. resident and Mr. Herve R. Andrieu, a French citizen and permanent U.S. resident.  See International Authorizations
Granted, Public Notice, DA 11-259, 26 FCC Rcd 1359, 1362 (Int'l Bur. 2011) (permitting Mr. Gottschalk and Mr. Andrieu to each have a 50
percent ownership interest in TNA, subject to TNA's compliance with the commitments and undertakings contained in its January 11, 2001 letter
to the U.S. Department of Justice).
According to the Petition, TNA is currently owned as follows: 37.505% by Mr. Gottschalk; 37.505% by Mr. Andrieu; and 24.99% by KRL.
Petitioner states that, upon consummation of the proposed transaction, TNA would be owned as follows:  25% by Mr. Gottschalk; 25% by Mr.
Andrieu; and 50% by KRL.  KRL, in turn, is owned as follows: 25% by Gregory Gundelfinger (a dual citizen of Germany and South Africa, and
a permanent resident of Canada); 25% by Mathew Stein (a citizen of South Africa and a permanent resident of Canada); and 50% by Carlyle,
Kft. (Carlyle), a Hungarian corporation.  Carlyle is a wholly-owned direct subsidiary of Ki Unlimited, a British Virgin Islands corporation which
is, in turn, wholly owned by Ki Corporation Limited (Ki), a Jersey (Channel Islands) corporation.  Petitioner states that the vast majority of the
economic interests in Ki are held indirectly in equal shares (25% each) by four trusts established in the British Virgin Islands by Mr. Nathan
Kirsh (a citizen of Swaziland and a U.K. foreign national) for the benefit of three of Mr. Kirsch's children (one of which is a U.K. citizen) and a
fourth trust holding for the benefit of various charities.  The Guardian Trust Company (British Virgin Islands) administers the trusts, but the
trusts' voting interests in Ki are exercised by majority vote of the six-member board of Eurona II Foundation (Eurona II), a Liechtenstein
foundation that holds the voting interests in Ki.   Eurona II's board consists of the three Kirsch family beneficiaries (the "Class A" board
members) and Interstock Anstalt, a Liechtenstein anstalt controlled by Prince Michael of Liechtenstein, acting in his capacity as a private
individual, Mr. Ron Sandler, a citizen of Germany, and Bradley Fried, a U.K. citizen (the "Class B" board members).
In support of the instant Petition, TNA states that it agrees to accept all conditions which were imposed on it in connection with the grant of its
prior declaratory ruling, including the conditions set forth in TNA's January 11, 2001 letter to the U.S. Department of Justice.  Petitioner asserts
that grant of the instant Petition would be in the public interest.
Interested parties may file comments on or before July 17, 2014, and reply comments on or before July 24, 2014.

TO:
Application for consent to the transfer of control of international section 214 authorization, ITC-214-2003103100499, held by Telecom North
America Inc. (TNA) to Knowroaming Ltd. (KRL). TNA is currently owned as follows: 37.505% by Mr. Johannes Gottschalk, a German citizen
and permanent U.S. resident; 37.505% by Mr. Herve R. Andrieu, a French citizen and permanent U.S. resident; and 24.99% by KRL, a Canadian
corporation.  In the proposed transaction, TNA would issue new shares to KRL in return for a capital infusion into the company, which would
dilute the interests of Messrs. Gottschalk and Andrieu and result in the following post-transaction ownership percentages:  25% by Mr.
Gottschalk; 25% by Mr. Andrieu; and 50% by KRL.  TNA states that, following the transaction, no single individual or entity will have positive
control of TNA.
KRL is owned 25% by Gregory Gundelfinger (a dual citizen of Germany and South Africa, and a permanent resident of Canada); 25% by
Mathew Stein (a citizen of South Africa and a permanent resident of Canada); and 50% by Carlyle, Kft. (Carlyle), a Hungarian corporation.
Carlyle is a wholly-owned direct subsidiary of Ki Unlimited, a British Virgin Islands corporation which is, in turn, wholly owned by Ki
Corporation Limited (Ki), a Jersey (Channel Islands) corporation.  Petitioner states that the vast majority of the economic interests in Ki are held
indirectly in equal shares (25% each) by four trusts established in the British Virgin Islands by Mr. Nathan Kirsh (a citizen of Swaziland and a
U.K. foreign national) for the benefit of three of Mr. Kirsch's children (one of which is a U.K. citizen) and a fourth trust holding for the benefit of
various charities.  The Guardian Trust Company (British Virgin Islands) administers the trusts, but the trusts' voting interests in Ki are exercised
by majority vote of the six-member board of Eurona II Foundation (Eurona II), a Liechtenstein foundation that holds the voting interests in Ki.
Eurona II's board consists of the three Kirsch family beneficiaries (the "Class A" board members) and Interstock Anstalt, a Liechtenstein anstalt
controlled by Prince Michael of Liechtenstein, acting in his capacity as a private individual, Mr. Ron Sandler, a citizen of Germany, and Bradley
Fried, a U.K. citizen (the "Class B" board members).
Interested parties may file comments on or before July 17, 2014, and reply comments on or before July 24, 2014.
