1. Reftel requested that post conduct a pre-license check at NCR
Corporation, Bur Dubai, UAE for export license application D405918:
Cisco Encryption products which are controlled under ECCN: 5A002,
5D002 for National Security and Anti-terrorism reasons. The license
applicant is Cisco Systems Inc., San Jose, CA.


2. On 6 Nov 2008, Export Control Officer (ECO) met with Mr. Ghassan
Hassan, Sales Manager, NCR Gulf. Hassan explained that NCR
(www.ncr.com) is a global network services provider that only
focuses on high-profit customers. NCR had bid on a contract with the
Dubai Police to replace the two main encrypted routers for its
connectivity between the various branches of the Police department.
Hassan readily provided ECO with copies of a detailed NCR router
proposal which highlights the Cisco products under order and a copy
of the Government of Dubai award of contract to NCR.


3. Post considers NCR Corporation to be a reliable recipient of U.S.
origin items for this transaction.
