MOTOROLA Gary L. Tooker Vice Chairman of the Board Chief Executive Officer July 5, 1995 The Honorable Ronald H. Brown Secretary U.S. Department of Commerce 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20230 Dear Secretary Brown: I am writing to thank you and some key members of the Commerce Department for your assistance in obtaining the Presidential waiver for encryption export sales to China. Motorola was facing a contract deadline and a potentially long-term loss of a major market when we requested urgent help to expedite our pending waiver request. Fortunately, Maureen Tucker and Sue Eckert, of the Bureau of Export Administration, were responsive to our request and helped work-out the complicated details of this issue. These individuals are the front line in responding to industry's efforts to ensure a level playing field when exports are subjected to national security controls, and they should be commended. The outcome of this waiver is good both for U.S. economic security as well as our broader national security interests. Losing sales to companies located in Europe and Japan would have been a double loss, averted only by the President's action to waive the sanctions. Again, thank you for helping ensure that America stays competitive in the global marketplace. Sincerely, Gary Tooker Motorola Inc. , Corporate Offices 1303 E. Algonquin Road, Schaumburg, IL 60196-1065 (708) 576-7500 - FAX: (708) 576-9175
