                                     ORDER

   Adopted: September 1, 2009 Released: September 1, 2009

   By the Acting Chief, Enforcement Bureau:

    1. In this Order, we cancel a proposed forfeiture in the amount of twenty
       thousand dollars ($20,000) issued to Cellular Abroad, Inc. ("Cellular
       Abroad"). On February 24, 2009, the Bureau issued to Cellular Abroad a
       Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture ("Omnibus NAL") based on
       Cellular Abroad's apparent violation of section 222 of the
       Communications Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act"), section 64.2009(e)
       of the Commission's rules, and the Commission's EPIC CPNI Order by
       failing to timely file an annual compliance certification with the
       Bureau.

    2. Upon review of the record, and based on additional information
       provided by Cellular Abroad, we agree with Cellular Abroad that it was
       not required to file a CPNI certification for calendar year 2007.
       Cellular Abroad is not a telecommunications carrier; it is in the
       business of selling international subscriber identity module ("SIM")
       cards as well as selling and renting mobile phones. Cellular Abroad
       thus had no telecommunications customers during the 2007 calendar
       year, only customers for equipment rentals and sales and SIM card
       sales. Accordingly, we find that Cellular Abroad did not violate
       section 222 of the Act, section 64.2009(e) of the Commission's rules,
       or the Commission's EPIC CPNI Order. Consequently, we conclude that no
       forfeiture should be imposed.

    3. ACCORDINGLY, IT IS ORDERED that, pursuant to section 503(b) of the
       Communications Act of 1934, as amended, and sections 0.111, 0.311 and
       1.80(f)(4) of the Commission's rules, that the proposed forfeiture in
       the amount of twenty thousand dollars ($20,000) issued to Cellular
       Abroad in the February 24, 2009 Omnibus Notice of Apparent Liability
       for Forfeiture IS CANCELLED.

    4. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that a copy of this Order shall be sent by First
       Class Mail and Certified Mail Return Receipt Requested to Cellular
       Abroad, attn: Sebastian Harrison, 425 Culver Blvd., Playa del Ray, CA
       90293.
