Common use of Future Applications Clause in Contracts

Future Applications. MTC agrees that, in any application or petition by any Domestic Communications Company to the FCC for licensing or other authority filed with or granted by the FCC after the Effective Date, except with respect to pro forma assignments or pro forma transfers of control, the Domestic Communications Company shall request that the FCC condition the grant of such licensing or other authority on compliance with the terms of this Agreement.
