Pursuant to section 310(d) of the Communications Act, 47 U.S.C. §
310(d), and section 0.331 of the Commission\'s rules, 47 C.F.R. § 0.331,

**OnQue Communications, Inc. to Oklahoma Western Telephone Company**:
Market

B267 -- McAlester, OK, BTA (F Block), File No. 0000009378.

We approve these assignments because we find they are in the public
interest, convenience, and necessity. 47 U.S.C. § 310(d). By this
approval, the parties are authorized to proceed to the final stages of
their respective transactions. Section 24.839(b)(4) of the Commission\'s
rules provides that \"the Commission shall be notified by letter of the
date of completion of the assignment or transfer of control.\" 47 C.F.R.
§24.839(b)(4). Hence, we remind parties that an assignment shall not be
considered complete until the underlying transaction closes and all
conditions set forth in the grant documents, including this Public
Notice and the application, are met. In addition, the approval of each
assignment is also conditioned upon the execution of all Commission loan
documents by the assignor, assignee and the Commission, unless the
license being assigned has been paid in full. Furthermore, unless the
license being assigned has been paid in full, the approval is
conditioned upon the assignee\'s execution of the applicable financing
statements (*i.e.* the UCC-1 Forms) and payment of all costs associated
with the preparation and recordation of the financing statements, on or
before the consummation date. Where applicable, the Bureau will send all
assignors listed herein the appropriate loan documents and financing
statements following the release of this Public Notice. Additionally,
all installment payments must be current on the consummation date.[^1]
Upon receipt of the letter required by section 24.839(b)(4) of the
Commission\'s rules, and satisfaction of all requisite conditions,
including execution of the appropriate documents, the Bureau will
consider the assignment \"complete\" and will issue the license to the
assignee with the date of the license grant identical to the date upon
which the transaction closed, thus completing the assignment.

Failure of the parties to comply with section 24.839(b)(4) of the
Commission\'s rules, or any specific condition described above, will
result in automatic cancellation of the Commission\'s assignment
approval, and dismissal of the underlying assignment applications.

For further information, please contact Rita Cookmeyer (202) 418-0660.
