Memotec / Comtech EF Data Corporation Export Compliance

As one of the leading manufacturers of digital and RF Products, including data modems, low noise amplifiers, solid state amplifiers, RF up and down converters, redundancy subsystems and complete data TX/RX terminals, for the satellite communications industry, Memotec and Comtech EF Data Corporation (the Company) takes its position as market leader and corporate citizen with the utmost seriousness. Recognizing that the illegal diversion of high technology commodities and technical data to military, terrorist, or nuclear/missile/chemical weapons proliferation activities poses a serious risk to the national security of the United States, as well as other nations in which the Company does business, and since export control regulations apply to virtually every aspect of our business, the Company has and will maintain a strict export control policy.

Export Control Statement

Each sales order acknowledgement and invoice contains the following statement:
These commodities, technology or software were shipped domestically and/or exported from the United States of America in accordance with the export administration regulations. Diversion contrary to U.S.A. law is prohibited.

Jurisdiction

Memotec and Comtech EF Data products have been reviewed and classified by the US Department of Commerce (DOC) and are subject to the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) administered by the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS).
