Sec. 7. The grantee, its successors or assigns, is authorized to operate its private fixed point-to-point, private coastal, private aeronautical and land-based and land mobile radio stations in the medium frequency, high frequency, and very high frequency that may be assigned to it by the Secretary of Public Works and Communications. Sec. 8. The grantee, its successors or assigns, shall be subject to the corporation laws of the Philippines now existing or hereafter enacted. Sec. 9.

Any corporation to which this temporary permit may be sold, transferred, or assigned, shall be subject to the corporation laws of the Philippines now existing or hereafter enacted, and any person, firm, company, corporation or other commercial or legal entity to which this temporary permit is sold, transferred, or assigned shall be subject to all conditions, terms, restrictions and limitations of this temporary permit as fully and completely and to the same extent as if the temporary permit had been originally granted to the said person, firm, company, corporation or other commercial or legal entity.
