General Instructions For Spectrum Leasing
Arrangement or Private Commons
Arrangement
Purpose of Form
FCC Form 608 is a multi-purpose form. It is used to provide
required notification or request approval for any spectrum leasing
arrangement (“Lease”) entered into between an existing licensee
(“Licensee”) in certain Wireless and/or Public Safety Radio
Services and a spectrum lessee (“Lessee”). This form also is
required to notify or request approval for any spectrum
subleasing arrangement (“Sublease”). The data collected on the
form is used by the FCC to determine whether the public interest
would be served by the Lease or Sublease. The form is also
used to provide notification for any Private Commons
Arrangement entered into between a Licensee, Lessee, or
Sublessee and a class of third-party users (as defined in Section
1.9080 of the Commission’s Rules). Applications for Subleases
or Private Common Arrangements must be filed manually and
sent to the appropriate address. The mailing address can be
found under the Application Fees and Filing Locations section
found on page 8 of the instructions.
The services that use this form are those services listed in
Section 1.9005 of the Commission’s Rules. See 47 C.F.R.
Section 1.900 et seq. For additional information, see Promoting
Efficient Use of Spectrum Through Elimination of Barriers to the

FCC Form 608 replaces FCC Form 603-T for all purposes.
Introduction
This is a multi-part form consisting of a Main Form and several
schedules. Each Application/Notification, amendment, or other
request must contain only one Main Form but may contain as few
or as many of the additional schedules as necessary.
Main Form
The purpose of the Main Form is to obtain information sufficient
to identify the parties to the associated Lease, Sublease or
Private Commons Arrangement, establish the parties’ eligibility
and qualifications for entering into the Lease, classify the filing,
and determine the nature of the proposed service. The Main
Form also contains the required certifications and signature
blocks for the parties. The Main Form is required for every filing.
Schedules
In addition to the Main Form, which is required with every filing,
completion of certain schedule(s) may also be required,
depending on the type of Lease or Sublease, or whether a
Private Commons Arrangement is involved. The purposes of
these schedules are as follows:

Schedule A (Schedule for Licensees that Received Bidding
Credits or Participate in the Installment Payment Plan, or
Involving Licenses Won in Closed Bidding) This Schedule
establishes whether unjust enrichment provisions or other
restrictions apply.
Schedule B (Schedule for New Lease or New Sublease) This
Schedule is used to provide required notification for new
Spectrum Manager Leases or Subleases and to request
approval for new De Facto Transfer Leases or Subleases. All
filings for Subleases must be filed manually and sent to the
appropriate address. The mailing address can be found under
the Application Fees and Filing Locations section found on
page 8 of the instructions.
Schedule C (Schedule for Modification of a Geographically
Licensed Lease or Sublease to Add, Modify or Delete
Technical Location Information for International Coordination,
Environmental Assessment, or Quiet Zone Location). This
Schedule is used to provide the technical location information
for locations that require international coordination, an
environmental assessment, or are located in a Quiet Zone.
File a separate schedule for each location. All filings for
Subleases must be filed manually and sent to the appropriate
address. The mailing address can be found under the
Application Fees and Filing Locations section found on page 8
of the instructions.
Schedule D (Schedule for Transfer of Control of a Lessee or
Sublessee) This Schedule is used to notify the Commission or
request Commission approval of the transfer of control of a
Lessee/Sublessee. In addition, this Schedule is used to
provide required notification of a transfer of control of the
Lessee/Sublessee pursuant to the Commission’s forbearance
procedures for telecommunications carriers. (See Section
1.948 of the Commission’s Rules). All filings for Subleases
must be filed manually and sent to the appropriate address.
The mailing address can be found under the Application Fees
and Filing Locations section found on page 8 of the
instructions.
Schedule E (Schedule for Supplemental Information
Pertaining to a New Lease, New Sublease, Revision To Extend
the Term of an Existing Lease or Sublease, or Revision To
Cancel an Existing Lease or Sublease). This Schedule is used
to provide supplemental date information in regards to the
filing. All filings for Subleases must be filed manually and sent
to the appropriate address. The mailing address can be found
under the Application Fees and Filing Locations section found
on page 8 of the instructions.
Schedule F (Schedule for Defined Geographic Area To Be
Leased (Geographically Licensed Service)) This Schedule is
used in conjunction with Schedule B for a New Lease when
geographically licensed authorizations are involved and the
entire geographic area and/or spectrum is not being leased.
This Schedule must be used when the leased area involves
FCC-defined geographic boundaries (i.e., Major Trading Areas
(MTAs), Basic Trading Areas (BTAs), etc.) or county
boundaries.
FCC 608 – Main Form Instructions
(Edition Date) – Page 2

This Schedule can be used to describe the geographic area of
the Lease and any amount of the licensed spectrum (or both).
Schedule G (Schedule for Leases that Involve an Undefined
Geographic Area) This Schedule is used in conjunction with
Schedule B and Schedule F when geographically licensed
authorizations are involved and the geographic area associated
with the New Lease cannot be described using FCC-defined
geographic boundaries or counties. This Schedule must be used
to provide the geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude)
that depict the periphery of the leased area.
Schedule H (Schedule for Point-to-Point Microwave Links To Be
Leased in Geographically-Licensed Services) This Schedule is
used in conjunction with Schedule B for a New Lease when
geographically licensed point-to-point microwave authorizations
are involved and one or more links are being leased.
Schedule I (Schedule for Supplemental Information Pertaining to
a New Private Commons Arrangement, Modification of an
Existing Private Commons Arrangement, Revision to Extend the
Term of an Existing Private Commons Arrangement, or Revision
to Cancel an Existing Private Commons Arrangement). This
Schedule is used when filing a notification of a Private Commons
Arrangement. All filings for Private Commons Arrangements must
be filed manually and sent to the appropriate address. The

Who Must File and When
Existing Licensees may enter into Leases with spectrum Lessees, consistent with the Commission’s Rules governing such
arrangements as set forth in Subpart X of Part 1 of the Commission’s Rules, 47 C.F.R. §§ 1.9001 et seq. In general, two types of
spectrum leasing arrangements are permitted: (1) spectrum manager leasing arrangements (“Spectrum Manager Leases”) and (2) de
facto transfer leasing arrangements (“De Facto Transfer Leases”). In addition, provided that certain conditions are met, Lessees are
permitted to enter into spectrum subleasing arrangements (“Subleases”) with spectrum sublessees (“Sublessees”). The Commission
has also established a new type of secondary market arrangement that permits the development of a “Private Commons” in licensed
wireless and/or public safety radio spectrum. Applications for Subleases or Private Common Arrangements must be filed manually and
sent to the appropriate address. The mailing address can be found under the Application Fees and Filing Locations section found on
page 8 of the instructions.
If a Licensee proposes to enter into a Spectrum Manager Lease with a Lessee, the Licensee must file a notification (“Notification”)
providing specified information about and certifications by the Licensee and Lessee, with the Commission prior to commencement of
operations under the Lease.
If a Licensee proposes to enter into a De Facto Transfer Lease with a Lessee, they are required to file an application (“Application”) for
approval by the Commission providing specified information about and certifications by both the Licensee and Lessee.
If a Lessee proposes to enter into a Sublease with a Sublessee, a similar Notification is required for a Spectrum Manager Sublease or
an Application is required for a De Facto Transfer Sublease. Applications for Subleases must be filed manually and sent to the
appropriate address. The mailing address can be found under the Application Fees and Filing Locations section found on page 8 of the
instructions.
If a Licensee, Lessee, or Sublessee proposes to enter into a Private Commons arrangement with a class of users, the Licensee or
Lessee or Sublessee (whichever entity is to serve as manager of the Private Commons arrangement) is required to file a notification
(“Notification”) with the Commission. This notification must include information that describes: the general terms and conditions of the
Private Commons arrange, including a description of the conditions for spectrum access placed on users: the technical and operating
terms and conditions of use placed on users, including those relating to the types of communications devices that may be used within
the Private Commons; the types of communications uses that are allowed by within the Private Commons; the location(s) or coverage
area(s) of the Private Commons under the license authorization; and, the term of the arrangement (e.g., commencement date and
termination date). Applications for Private Common Arrangements must be filed manually and sent to the appropriate address. The
mailing address can be found under the Application Fees and Filing Locations section found on page 8 of the instructions.

De Facto Transfer Leases as set forth in the Commission’s Rules.
New Lease
When a Licensee and Lessee enter into a Lease of certain specified spectrum associated with a particular license
authorization for the first time, such Lease constitutes a new Lease (“New Lease”) for purposes of this Notification/Application.
If a Licensee and Lessee involved in a Short-Term De Facto Transfer Lease seek to “convert” that Short-Term De Facto
Transfer Lease into a Long-Term De Facto Transfer Lease of spectrum under the license authorization, the Short-Term De
Facto Transfer Lease must be cancelled and a new Long-Term De Facto Transfer Lease application filed.
A Lessee may not assign an existing Lease to another party. The existing Lease must be cancelled and the new party must
file for a new Lease.
If a New Lease Application/Notification is filed, the Main Form, Schedule B and Schedule E must be filed with the Commission
and are always required. Schedules A, F, G and H are only required in certain circumstances.
If a New Lease Application/Notification is filed, both the Licensee and Lessee must sign the form.
New Sublease (Must be filed Manually)

as set forth in the Commission’s Rules, are met.
If the underlying Lease is a Spectrum Manager Lease, the Lessee and Sublessee are permitted only to enter into a Spectrum
Manager Sublease.
If the underlying Lease is a Long-Term De Facto Transfer Lease, the Lessee and Sublessee may enter into either a Spectrum
Manager Sublease or De Facto Transfer Sublease.
Lessees under Short-Term De Facto Transfer Leases are not permitted to enter into Subleases.
If a New Sublease Application/Notification is filed, the Main Form, Schedule B and Schedule E must be filed with the
Commission and are always required. Schedule A must be filed, if applicable.

Private Commons Arrangement
A “Private Commons” arrangement, an arrangement distinct from a spectrum leasing arrangement, is permitted in the same
services for which spectrum leasing arrangements are allowed. Under a Private Commons arrangement, a Licensee, Lessee
or Sublessee makes certain spectrum usage rights under the license authorization available to a class of third-party users that
employ advanced communications technologies that do not involve use of the Licensee’s, Lessee’s or Sublessee’s end-to-end
physical network infrastructure (e.g., base stations, mobile stations, or other related elements) and are not intended to be used
in the provision of network-based services to end-users. Specifically, in a Private Commons arrangement the Licensee,
Lessee or Sublessee authorizes users of certain communications devices employing particular technical parameters, as
specified by the Licensee, Lessee or Sublessee, to operate under the license authorization. The Licensee, Lessee or
Sublessee that acts as the manager of a Private Commons must retain de facto control of the use of the spectrum by such
third-party users. This includes maintaining reasonable oversight over the user’s use of the spectrum to ensure that the use of
the spectrum, and communications equipment employed, comply with the applicable technical and service rules; it also
includes maintaining the ability to ensure such compliance. For additional information, see Promoting Efficient Use of
Spectrum Through Elimination of Barriers to the Development of Secondary Markets, Second Report and Order, Order on
Reconsideration, and Second Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, WT Docket No. 00-230, FCC 04-167, at ¶¶ 91-99 (rel.
Sep. 2, 2004) (“Secondary Markets Second Report and Order”); 47 C.F.R. § 1.9080.
A Licensee, Lessee or Sublessee acting as the manager of the Private Commons must notify the Commission of a Private
Commons arrangement prior to permitting third-party users to commence operations. This Licensee, Lessee or Sublessee
must complete the applicable questions, and submit the necessary exhibits, as set forth in the Main Form and Schedule I, and
sign the Main Form. If a Private Commons Arrangement applies with regard to operations under a license authorization (as
opposed to spectrum that has been leased under a spectrum leasing arrangement), the Licensee must sign the form.
If a Private Commons Arrangement applies with regard to spectrum leased under a De Facto Transfer Lease, the Lessee must
sign the form.
If a Private Commons Arrangement applies with regard to spectrum leased under a De Facto Transfer Sublease, the
Sublessee must sign the form.
If a Private Commons Arrangement applies with regard to spectrum leased under a Spectrum Manager Lease, the Lessee
must sign the form.
If a Private Commons Arrangement applies with regard to spectrum leased under a Spectrum Manager Sublease, the
Sublessee must sign the form.
Applications for Private Commons Arrangements must be filed manually and sent to the appropriate address. The mailing
address can be found under the Application Fees and Filing Locations section found on page 8 of the instructions.

Licensees or third-party licensees, a separate Form must be filed for each affiliate or licensee. Enter ‘N’ if all licenses to be
Leased/Subleased, as a result of the proposed transaction, are listed on this one Form. Parties who seek to Lease/Sublease
licenses as part of a larger transaction or plan on filing multiple Applications/Notifications are strongly encouraged to contact
the bureau in advance of filing this Form.
Item 4b If the response to 4a is ‘Y’ and this filing is the lead Application/Notification, enter ‘Y’. Otherwise, enter ‘N’.
Item 4c If the response to 4a is ‘Y’ and the response to 4b is ‘N’, provide the File Number of the lead Application/Notification of
this transaction. Parties may wish to designate a lead application for transactions which involve a series of applications. This
allows parties to submit all attachments that are common to all applications in a transaction once. The parties can then attach
one exhibit to the other applications associated with the transaction in order to incorporate by reference the attachments in the
lead application.
Attachments
Item 5 Enter ‘Y’ if attachments (other than associated schedules) are being filed with this Application/Notification. Otherwise,
enter ‘N’.
Parties submitting Applications/Notifications may in some instances be required to provide by means of an attachment,
additional information not specifically requested elsewhere on FCC Form 608 to establish the qualifications of the
Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee or to otherwise demonstrate that the proposed transaction is in the public interest. The burden
is on the parties to determine whether such additional information is necessary under Section 310(d) in light of the
circumstances of the particular Lease/Sublease. Applicants seeking further guidance on this issue are encouraged to contact
the bureau in advance of filing FCC Form 608.

Fees and Waivers
Exemption from Application Fees
Item 6 This item notifies the FCC that the Applicant is exempt from FCC application fees. If the response is ‘Y’, an exhibit
demonstrating the Applicant’s eligibility for exemption from FCC application fees must be submitted with this filing. For

Guide or call (877) 480-3201 (TTY 717-338-2824).

Regulatory Status and Offerings (Only applicable on a Modification of a Lease or Modification of a Sublease)
Radio Service Offerings
Item 9 Indicate the type(s) of radio service offerings the Applicant plans to provide.
All entities that are planning to use the lease spectrum for telecommunications services should select common carrier in this
item. The term ‘telecommunications service’ means the offering of telecommunications (i.e., the transmission, between or
among points specified by the user, of information of the user's choosing, without change in the form or content of the
information as sent and received) for a fee directly to the public, or to such classes of users as to be effectively available
directly to the public, regardless of the facilities used. Non-common carriers do not hold themselves out indiscriminately for
hire as carriers of communications provided by the customer. A person engaged in radio broadcasting shall not, insofar as
such person is so engaged, be deemed a common carrier. Thus, those entities meeting this definition would select noncommon carrier for this item. Private internal users are those entities that utilize telecommunications services purely for
internal business purposes or public safety communications and not on a for hire or for profit basis. Such entities should
select ‘Private’ for this item. The term ‘Broadcast Services’ shall have the same meaning as that for “broadcasting” in § 3(6) of
the Communications Act of 1934, i.e., the dissemination of radio communications intended to be received by the public,
directly or by the intermediary of relay stations.” 47 U.S.C. § 153(6).
Radio Service
Item 10 Select all types of radio services that the Applicant plans to provide, as applicable. Broadcast Auxiliary applicants
should select Fixed or Mobile, not Broadcast Services.
Item 11 Indicate whether the Applicant plans to provide service interconnected to the public telephone network as defined in
the FCC rules. Enter ‘Y’ if yes. Otherwise, enter ‘N’.

Designated Entity Information (If the answer to 12a, 12b or 12c is ‘Y’, Schedule A must be completed.)
Bidding Credits
Item 12a Enter ‘Y’ if the transaction involves spectrum under any licenses that were originally granted before April 25, 2006,
and that were awarded with bidding credits within the last five years and/or any licenses that were originally granted after April

The initial grant date is the date that the license was originally granted by the Commission after an auction, even if the license
was acquired in the secondary market. The initial grant date is not the date on which the Commission granted an assignment
or transfer of control of the license.
If the response to this item is ‘Y’, the licenses may be subject to the FCC’s unjust enrichment rules. See Section 1.2111(d), (e)
of the Commission’s Rules. If the response to 12a is ‘Y’, Schedule A must be completed.
Installment Payment Plan
Item 12b Enter ‘Y’ if the transaction involves spectrum under licenses that were awarded subject to the FCC’s installment
payment program. Otherwise, enter ‘N’.

Ownership Disclosure Information
FCC Form 602
If the Application/Notification includes Licenses in the Wireless Radio Services that are subject to the ownership reporting
requirements of Section 1.2112(a), the Applicant must file a FCC Form 602, Ownership Disclosure Form. For purposes of this
question, Applicant is the Lessee, Sublessee or Transferee.
Item 151a Enter ‘Y’ if the Applicant is required to file FCC Form 602, Ownership Disclosure Information for the Wireless
Telecommunications Services. Otherwise, enter ‘N’.
Item 151b If the response to item 151a is ‘Y’, enter the File Number of the FCC Form 602 that was filed in conjunction with this
filing or already on file with the FCC and remains accurate.

Alien Ownership Questions
Alien Ownership
Pursuant to the Secondary Markets Order, the Commission requires that a Lessee/Sublessee, including a Lessee or
Sublessee subsequent to a proposed transfer of control, meet the eligibility requirements that pertain to foreign ownership, as
set forth in Section 310 of the Communications Act. See Secondary Markets Order, WT Docket No. 00-230, FCC 03-113, at
¶¶ 110,143. The following items enable the FCC to determine whether a Lessee/Sublessee, including a Lessee or Sublessee
subsequent to a proposed transfer of control, is eligible under Section 310(a) and (b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, to Lease/Sublease. If the Application/Notification is for the transfer of control of a lease or sublease, the
foreign ownership of the post-transaction Lessee or Sublessee is evaluated. All Lessees/Sublessees and Post-Transfer
Lessees/Sublessees filing an Application/Notification must answer items 152-156. Any applicant that answers ‘Y’ to items
153-156a must provide an attachment explaining the circumstances.
The FCC will otherwise dismiss the
Application/Notification without further consideration.
Item 152 All /Transferees/Lessees/Sublessees filing an Application/Notification must answer Item 150. The FCC cannot grant
an Application/Notification if the Lessee/Sublessee or post-transfer Lessee/Sublessee is a foreign government or the
representative of a foreign government. Therefore, if the true and correct answer to Item 152 is ‘Y’, the Lessee/Sublessee or
post-transfer Lessee/Sublessee is not eligible to enter into a Lease and the FCC will dismiss the Application/Notification, if
filed, without further consideration.
Items 153-155 The FCC cannot grant an authorization to provide common carrier or broadcast service to any
Lessee/Sublessee or post-transfer Lessee/Sublessee for which the true and correct answer to any of Items 153 - 155 is ‘Y’.
Any Applicant that answers ‘Y’ to any of items 153-155 must provide an attachment explaining why the Lease that is the
subject of the Application/Notification is exempt from the prohibitions contained in Section 310(b)(1)-(3) of the Communications
Act of 1934. The FCC will otherwise dismiss the application without further consideration.
Item 156a Enter ‘Y’ if the Lessee/Sublessee or post-transfer Lessee/Sublessee is directly or indirectly controlled by any other
corporation of which more than one-fourth of the capital stock is owned of record or voted by aliens, their representatives, or
by a foreign government or representative thereof, or by any corporation organized under the laws of a foreign country.
Otherwise, enter ‘N’. If answer is ‘Y’, and if the Lease that is the subject of the Application/Notification allows for the provision
of a common carrier or broadcast service, it is necessary for the Lessee/Sublessee or post-transfer Lessee/Sublessee to have
or obtain approval of the indirect foreign ownership of the Lessee/Sublessee or post-transfer Lessee/Sublessee pursuant to
Section 310(b)(4) of the Communications Act of 1934. Accordingly, any Lessee/Sublessee or post-transfer Lessee/Sublessee
that answers ‘Y’ to items 156a must provide an attachment explaining the circumstances. The FCC will otherwise dismiss the
application without further consideration. In the attachment, the Lessee/Sublessee or post-transfer Lessee/Sublessee must
demonstrate either that (i) the subject Lease is exempt from the provisions of Section 310(b)(4), or (ii) allowing the
Lessee/Sublessee or post-transfer Lessee/Sublessee to hold the requested license is consistent with the Commission’s
policies pursuant to Section 310(b)(4). If the Lessee/Sublessee or post-transfer Lessee/Sublessee cannot demonstrate that
the Lease is exempt from the provisions of Section 310(b)(4), it must include in its Section 310(b)(4) showing a description of
the Lessee/Sublessee’s or post-transfer Lessee/Sublessee’s indirect foreign ownership along with information regarding any
approvals of the foreign ownership obtained from the Commission. In general, the Commission has indicated that there is a
strong presumption that indirect foreign ownership of common carrier radio Licensees by entities whose home markets are in
countries that are members of the World Trade Organization (WTO) does not raise competitive concerns. If more that 25
percent of the ownership of an entity that directly or indirectly controls a common carrier radio Licensee is attributable to
parties whose home markets offer effective competitive opportunities to U.S. investors in the same service sector. See Rules
and Policies on Foreign Participation in the U.S. Telecommunications Market, IB Docket No. 97-142, Report and Order and
Oder on Reconsideration, FCC 97-398, 12 FCC Rcd 23,891 ¶¶ 97-118, 331 (1997).
For additional guidance on how the Commission analyzes foreign ownership issues, see Foreign Ownership Guidelines for
FCC Common Carrier and Aeronautical Radio license, DA 04-3610, 19 FCC Rcd 22,612 (2004) corrected by erratum, DA 061242 (rel. June 8, 2006).

Item 156b Enter ‘U’ if the Lessee/Sublessee or post-transfer Lessee/Sublessee has received a ruling(s) under Section
310(b)(4) of the Communications Act with respect to the same radio service(s) and geographic coverage area(s) involved in
this Application/Notification. Otherwise, enter ‘N’.
If the answer to 156b is ‘Y’, attach an exhibit providing citation(s) to any applicable declaratory ruling(s) issued by the
Commission, by DA/FCC number, the FCC Record citation, if available, release date, and any other identifying information
If the answer to 156b is ‘N’, attach as an exhibit, a date-stamped copy of the request for a foreign ownership ruling pursuant to
Section 310(b)(4) of the Communications Act of 1934. It is not necessary to file a request for a foreign ownership ruling if the
Applicant includes in the exhibit required by Item 156a a showing that the subject Lease is exempt from the provisions of
Section 310(b)(4).

Information and Instructions

for public burden estimate

Instructions for Schedule for Licensees that Received Bidding Credits or
Participate in the Installment Payment Plan, or
Involving Licenses Won in Closed Bidding
FCC Form 608, Schedule A
Complete this schedule when a Lease/Sublease/Transfer of Control involves spectrum associated with a License(s) that was
originally awarded through the competitive bidding process and the original Licensee or current Licensee obtained installment
payments, bidding credits, or was otherwise subject to special provisions applicable to entrepreneurs, and closed bidding licenses.
This schedule establishes whether the Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee is eligible for the same special provisions as the Licensee, or
whether unjust enrichment provisions or other restrictions apply. All filings for Subleases must be filed manually and sent to the
appropriate address. The mailing address can be found under the Application Fees and Filing Locations section found on page 8 of
the Main Form Instructions.

Designated Entity Information
Bidding Credits
Items 1-3 require information from Licensees and Lessees/Sublessees/Transferees in those instances in which the
Lease/Sublease involves spectrum associated with license(s) for which the Licensee is a “designated entity.” See 47 CFR §§
1.2110-1.2112 (rules pertaining to designated entities); § 1.9020(d)(4), § 1.9030(d)(4) (rules pertaining to leasing involving
designated entities); and appropriate FCC competitive bidding rules and applicable service rules in Title 47 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (47 CFR).
Item 1 Enter ‘Y’ if the full amount of bidding credits awarded with regard to each subject license has been paid as part of unjust
enrichment payment(s) in previous transaction(s). Otherwise, enter ‘N’. If the response to Item 1 is ‘Y’, Items 2 and 3 are not
required to be completed. If the response to Item 1 is ‘N’, complete Item 2 or 3, as appropriate.
Bidding Credits – (Spectrum Manager Only)
Item 2 Must be completed for each Application/Notification for a Spectrum Manager Lease/Sublease in which the Licensee has
“designated entity” status if the Applicant entered ‘N’ in Item 1. In general, for purposes of determining whether a licensee retains
its eligibility as a designated entity, the gross revenues of the licensee, its “controlling interest(s),” and any “affiliate(s)” of the
licensee or of any “controlling interest” are considered on a cumulative basis and aggregated. See 47 CFR §§ 1.2110(b),
1.2112(b). A “controlling interest” includes any individual or entity with either de jure or de facto control of the licensee. See §
1.2110(c)(2). An “affiliate” includes any individual or entity holding an attributable interest in the licensee as set forth in §
1.2110(c)(5). Note that the Commission’s attribution rules relating to “controlling interests” (and the standard for determining de
facto control embodied therein) and “affiliates,” as set forth in § 1.2110, are not altered by the different de facto control standard
generally applicable to spectrum leasing arrangements, as set forth in § 1.9010 of the Commission’s Rules. See Promoting
Efficient Use of Spectrum through Elimination Barriers to the Development of Secondary Markets. WT Docket No. 00-230, 18 FCC
Rcd. 20604 (2003) (“Secondary Markets Order”). To the extent that there is any conflict between Section 1.2110 (and the de facto
control standard embodied therein) and the de facto control standard in Section 1.9010, the designated entity provisions of §
1.2110 govern with regard to whether a licensee has maintained the requisite degree of ownership and control to allow it to remain
eligible for the license or for other benefits such as bidding credits and installment payments. See Secondary Markets Order, 18
FCC Rcd at 20654-55 ¶ 113.
Item 2a Enter ‘Y’ if the Applicant (Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee) has a general partnership interest or has direct or indirect
ownership interests in excess of ten percent in the Licensee. Otherwise, enter ‘N’.
Item 2b Enter ‘Y’ if the Applicant (Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee) is a “controlling interest holder” or “affiliate” of the current
Licensee. Otherwise, enter ‘N’.
Item 2c Enter ‘Y’ if the Applicant (Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee) shares office space, equipment or other facilities with any party
controlling the entity from which spectrum is being leased/subleased. Otherwise, enter ‘N’.
Item 2d Enter ‘Y’ if the Licensee can certify that the Lease/Sublease does not affect its continuing eligibility to retain bidding credits
as a designated entity. Enter ‘N’ if the Licensee cannot so certify.

(Edition Date) - Page 1

Bidding Credits – (Long-Term De Facto Transfer Only)
Item 3 Item 3 must be completed for each Application/Notification for a Long-Term De Facto Transfer Lease/Sublease. Check the
appropriate response.

If the Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee qualifies for the same designated entity status as the current Licensee, or qualifies for a higher

percentage bidding credit than the current Licensee, it should so indicate by checking the first box. If the
Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee qualifies for a
designated entity status, but does not qualify for as high a percentage of bidding credits as received by the Licensee, the
Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee should respond by checking the second box. If the Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee checks either the
second box or if it does not qualify for any designated entity status (and thus checks the third box), an unjust enrichment payment
WILL be required. See Secondary Markets Order, 18 FCC Rcd at 10666-67 ¶ 145.
Refer to the appropriate FCC competitive bidding rules, including section 1.2111, and to the service rules in 47 CFR. If the
Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee qualifies for designated entity status, it must complete Items 11-39 and attach an exhibit in
accordance with 47 CFR disclosing the Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee’s eligibility for bidding credits.
Note that payment of any required unjust enrichment must be provided to the Commission prior to grant of the
Application/Notification.
Installment Payment Plan
Items 4-7 require information from Licensees and Lessees/Sublessees/Transferees in those instances in which the
Lease/Sublease involves spectrum associated with license(s) for which the Licensee is making installment payments. See 47
CFR §§ 1.2110-1.2112 (rules pertaining to licensees participating in the Commission’s installment payment plan); § 1.9020(d)(4), §
1.9030(d)(4) (rules pertaining to leasing involving designated entities); and appropriate FCC competitive bidding rules and
applicable service rules in 47 CFR.
Item 4 Enter ‘Y’, if all installment payment obligations for each of the subject licenses have been paid in full. Otherwise, enter ‘N’.
If the response to Item 4 is ‘N’, complete Item 5 and Items 6 or 7 as appropriate.
Item 5 If a Lease/Sublease involves spectrum associated with a license subject to the Commission’s installment payment plan (see
§ 1.2110 and related service-specific rules in Title 47 of the Code of Federal Regulations (47 CFR)), a Licensee and
Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee may enter into a Lease/Sublease only after the Commission-approved financing documents have
been executed by both the Licensee and Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee, as required pursuant to Sections 1.9040 and 1.9045, 47
C.F.R. §§ 1.9040, 1.9045). The Licensee and Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee should check the appropriate response to item 5a
regarding the execution of Commission-approved financing agreements. If the response to Item 5a is ‘Y’, provide the date of
execution of the required document(s) in Items 5b and 5c.
Installment Payment Plan – (Spectrum Manager Leases/Subleases Only)
Item 6 Must be completed for each Application/Notification for a Spectrum Manager Lease/Sublease in which the license(s)
associated with the spectrum is subject to the Commission’s installment payment plan. In general, for purposes of determining
whether a licensee retains its eligibility to participate in the installment payment plan, the gross revenues of the licensee, its
“controlling interest(s),” and any “affiliate(s)” of the licensee or of any “controlling interest” are considered on a cumulative basis
and aggregated. See 47 CFR §§ 1.2110(b), 1.2112(b). A “controlling interest” includes any individual or entity with either de jure
or de facto control of the licensee. See § 1.2110(c)(2). An “affiliate” includes any individual or entity holding an attributable interest
in the licensee as set forth in § 1.2110(c)(5). Note that the Commission’s attribution rules relating to “controlling interest(s)” (and
the standard for determining de facto control embodied therein) and “affiliate(s),” as set forth in § 1.2110, are not altered by the
different de facto control standard generally applicable to spectrum leasing arrangements, as set forth in § 1.9010 of the
Commission’s rules. See Secondary Markets Order, 18 FCC Rcd. 20604. To the extent that there is any conflict between Section
1.2110 (and the de facto control standard embodied therein) and the de facto control standard in Section 1.9010, the provisions of
§ 1.2110 govern with regard to whether a licensee has maintained the requisite degree of ownership and control to allow it to
remain eligible for the license or for other benefits such as bidding credits and installment payments. See Secondary Markets
Order, 18 FCC Rcd. at 20654-55 ¶ 113.
Item 6a Enter ‘Y’ if the Applicant (Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee) has a general partnership interest or has direct or indirect
ownership interests in excess of ten percent in the Licensee. Otherwise, enter ‘N’.
Item 6b Enter ‘Y’ if the Applicant (Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee) is a “controlling interest holder” or “affiliate” of the current
Licensee. Otherwise, enter ‘N’.
Item 6c Enter ‘Y’ if the Applicant (Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee) shares office space, equipment or other facilities with any party
controlling the entity from which spectrum is being leased/subleased. Otherwise, enter ‘N’.
Item 6d Enter ‘Y’ if the Licensee can certify that the Lease/Sublease does not affect its continuing eligibility to participate in the
FCC’s installment payment plan. Enter ‘N’ if the Licensee cannot so certify.

Installment Payment Plan – (Long-Term De Facto Transfer Only)
Eligibility Status
Item 7 This item must be completed for each Application/Notification for a Long-Term De Facto Transfer Lease/Sublease. Check
the appropriate response.

If the Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee qualifies for the same eligibility status for the installment payment plan as the current

Licensee, or qualifies for a more favorable installment payment plan than the current Licensee, it should so indicate by checking
the first box. If the Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee qualifies for an installment payment plan, but does not qualify for as favorable an
installment payment plan as the Licensee, the Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee should respond by checking the second box. If the
Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee checks either the second box or if it does not qualify for any installment payment plan (and thus
checks the third box), an unjust enrichment payment WILL be required. Secondary Markets Order, 18 FCC Rcd. at 20666-67 ¶
145.
Refer to the appropriate FCC competitive bidding rules, and to the service-specific rules in 47 CFR. If the
Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee qualifies for an installment payment plan, it must complete Items 11-39 and attach an exhibit in
accordance with 47 CFR disclosing the Lessee/Sublessee/Transferee’s eligibility for an installment payment plan.
Closed Bidding Licenses
Items 8-10 require information from Licensees and Lessees/Sublessees/Transferees in those instances in which the
Lease/Sublease involves spectrum associated with license(s) for which the Licensee obtained a closed bidding license. See 47
CFR §§ 1.2110-1.2112, 24.709 (rules pertaining to licensees that participate in the closed bidding program); §§ 19020(d)(4),
1.9030(d)(4) (rules pertaining to leasing involving licensees in the closed bidding program); and appropriate FCC competitive
bidding rules and applicable service rules in Title 47 of the Code of Federal Regulations (47 CFR).
Items 8 Enter ‘Y’ if construction notifications have been submitted for each of the subject licenses. Otherwise, enter ‘N’. If the
response to Item 8 is ‘Y’, Items 9 and 10 are not required to be completed. If the response to Item 8 is ‘N’, complete Item 9 or 10,
as appropriate.
Closed Bidding Licenses – (Spectrum Manager Only)
Item 9 Must be completed for each Application/Notification for a Spectrum Manager Lease/Sublease in which the license(s)
associated with the spectrum was obtained in the Commission’s closed bidding program. In general, for purposes of determining
whether a licensee retains its eligibility for a license obtained in closed bidding, the gross revenues of the licensee, its “controlling
interest(s),” and any “affiliate(s)” of the licensee or of any “controlling interest” are considered on a cumulative basis and
aggregated. See 47 CFR §§ 1.2110(b), 1.2112(b), 24.709. A “controlling interest” includes any individual or entity with either de
jure or de facto control of the licensee. See § 1.2110(c)(2). An “affiliate” includes any individual or entity holding an attributable
interest in the licensee as set forth in § 1.2110(c)(5). Note that the Commission’s attribution rules relating to “controlling interest(s)”
(and the standard for determining de facto control embodied therein) and “affiliate(s),” as set forth in § 1.2110, are not altered by
the different de facto control standard generally applicable to spectrum leasing arrangements, as set forth in § 1.9010 of the
Commission’s rules. See Secondary Markets Order, 18 FCC Rcd. 20604. To the extent that there is any conflict between section

§ 1.2110 govern with regard to whether a licensee has maintained the requisite degree of ownership and control to allow it to
remain eligible for the license or for other benefits such as bidding credits and installment payments. See Secondary Markets
Order, 18 FCC Rcd. at 20654-55 ¶ 113.

Instructions for Schedule for Defined Geographic Area To Be Leased
(Geographically-Licensed Services)
FCC Form 608, Schedule F
Schedule F is a supplementary schedule used in conjunction with Schedule B for a New Lease when geographically licensed
authorizations are involved in the Lease and only a portion of the licensed spectrum and/or only a portion of the licensed geographic
area will be leased (the entire spectrum and the entire geographic area are not included in the Lease).
Call Sign
Item 1 Enter the Call Sign of the spectrum associated with the Lease.
Geographic Area of Spectrum To Be Included in Lease
Item 2 If the area to be leased is defined according to the FCC rules, enter its description under Item 2. To obtain a list and
description of defined areas, refer to the FCC Public Notice for the auction.
In some cases, more than one geographic area exists with the same name in the same state (e.g., an independent city with the
same name as a county in the same state). To indicate these independent cities, you must enter its 5 digit FIPS code (2-digit state
FIPS code + 3-digit county FIPS code). For example, in Virginia there is a Fairfax County and a Fairfax City. Fairfax City is an
independent city and is not affiliated with Fairfax County. To indicate the city of Fairfax, you must enter its FIPS code, 51600, as
shown in the table below. To indicate the county of Fairfax, you could enter its FIPS code or ‘Fairfax, VA.’ For a listing of FIPS
codes, refer to “www.census.gov/datamap/fipslist/AllSt.txt.”
Item 3 If the area to be leased is undefined, describe its periphery by completing the Undefined Geographic Area Schedule, FCC
Form 608, Schedule G. Assign a unique number to each copy of Schedule G that is filed and enter that unique number in Item 3 of
this Schedule F.
Item 4 Enter the population of the leased area.
Frequencies of Spectrum To Be Included in Lease (MHz)
Item 5 Authorized spectrum blocks can be leased by assigning one or more frequency blocks. To indicate a frequency, enter its
lower value in MHz in the Lower Frequency field and enter its upper value in MHz in the Upper Frequency field. In this table,
complete as many entries as you need to indicate the spectrum being leased.

Instructions for Schedule for Leases that Involve an Undefined Geographic Area
FCC Form 608, Schedule G
This schedule must be completed and attached if the geographic area of spectrum to be leased is an undefined area, as specified
by Item 3 on Schedule F. Complete and attach a copy of Schedule G for each Call Sign affected by the New Lease. If multiple
undefined areas are requested, each undefined area must have a corresponding Schedule G.
Schedule for Leases that Involve an Undefined Geographic Area
This schedule further defines geographic areas that have not been defined by the FCC. It is used to enter the coordinates of
locations that describe the periphery of a geographic area to be leased. Specifically, enter up to 120 pairs of latitude/longitude
coordinates, one pair for every 3 degrees azimuth around the periphery. Coordinates of the specified locations must be referenced
to the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83).
Note:
If the geographic area to be leased is a defined geographic shape, fewer than 120 coordinates can be
provided, in which case the FCC will assume that these coordinate points are joined by straight lines. For
example, a rectangle can be described by four coordinates, a hexagon by six coordinates, and so on.
Number: Enter the corresponding unique number from Item 3 of Schedule F that was assigned to this undefined area.
Latitude: In this column, enter the latitudes of locations using the format DD-MM-SS.S-D, where the degrees (DD) term can have a
value in the range of 0 to 72, minutes (MM) can range from 0 to 59, seconds (SS.S) can range from 0 to 59.9, and the direction (D)
term is either N for North or S for South.
Longitude: In this column, enter the corresponding longitudes of locations using the format DDD-MM-SS.S-D, where the degrees
(DDD) term can have a value in the range of 64 to 180, minutes (MM) can range from 0 to 59, seconds (SS.S) can range from 0 to
59.9, and the direction (D) term is either E for East or W for West.

Revision to Cancel an Existing Private Commons Arrangement
FCC Form 608, Schedule I
Schedule I is a supplementary schedule that is used to provide information regarding a Private Commons Arrangement. This includes
information pertaining to (a) a new Private Commons arrangement, (b) a modification or revision of the terms and conditions, technical
requirements and approved equipment, and/or types of communications uses allowed, (c) a revision to extend the term of an existing
Private Commons arrangement, or (d) a revision to cancel an existing Private Commons arrangement. A single Schedule I is used for all
of the Call Signs, Lease Identifier(s) or Private Commons Identifier(s) listed in Item 182 of the Main Form. All filings for Private
Commons Arrangements must be filed manually and sent to the appropriate address. The mailing address can be found under the
Application Fees and Filing Locations section found on page 8 of the Main Form Instructions.
Private Commons Information
A Private Commons arrangement is distinct from a spectrum leasing arrangement. Under a Private Commons arrangement, a Licensee,
Lessee or Sublessee makes certain spectrum usage rights under the license authorization available to a class of third-party users that
employ advanced communications technologies that involve peer-to-peer communications and do not use of the Licensee’s, Lessee’s or
Sublessee’s end-to-end physical network infrastructure (e.g., base stations, mobile stations, or other related elements) and are not
intended to be used in the provision of network-based services to end-users. See generally Promoting Efficient Use of Spectrum
Through Elimination of Barriers to the Development of Secondary Markets, Second Report and Order, Order on Reconsideration, and
Second Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, WT Docket No. 00-230, FCC 04-167, at ¶¶ 91-99 (rel. Sep. 2, 2004) (“Secondary
Markets Second Report and Order”); 47 C.F.R. § 1.9080. Pursuant to the Secondary Markets Second Report and Order, a Licensee,
Lessee or Sublessee that establishes a Private Commons Arrangement is required to provide notification to the Commission, prior to
commencement of operations under such arrangement, and also must provide exhibits describing certain details (set forth below) about
the nature of this arrangement. Only the Licensee, Lessee or Sublessee that exercises de facto control over the use of the spectrum
associated with the Private Commons arrangement may establish such an arrangement. As manager of the Private Common
arrangement, this Licensee, Lessee or Sublessee also must exercise certain responsibilities to ensure that the users comply with the
technical and service rules applicable to the license authorization. See id.
If this notification involves a new Private Commons arrangement, or it involves a modification or revision of an existing Private Commons
arrangement (i.e., a modification of the terms and conditions, technical requirements and approved equipment, and/or types of
communications uses allowed under an existing Private Commons arrangement, request to extend the term or request to cancel an
existing arrangement), the following questions must be answered and certain exhibits (described below) provided.
General Terms and Conditions
A License, Lessee or Sublessee establishing and managing a Private Commons arrangement must provide relevant information
pertaining to the general terms and conditions of the arrangement with the class of third-party users that would be employing advanced
communications technologies involving peer-to-peer devices. Attach an exhibit describing the general terms and conditions of this Private
Commons arrangement, including a description of the conditions for spectrum access placed on users.
Technical Requirements and Approved Equipment
A License, Lessee or Sublessee establishing and managing a Private Commons arrangement is responsible for establishing the technical
and operating terms and conditions of use of users of the Private Commons, including those relating to the types of communications
devices that may be used within the Private Commons. Attach an exhibit describing these technical requirements and the equipment
approved for use in the Private Commons.
Types of Communications Uses Allowed
A License, Lessee or Sublessee establishing and managing a Private Commons also is required to describe the types of communications
uses that are to be allowed by third-party users in the Private Commons. Attach an exhibit describing these types of uses.
