To provide on a non-discriminatory basis the service of the facili- ties to all aircraft under the rules of PICAO. All messages permitted under PICAO shall be conveyed, and computation of charges, if any, shall also be made in pursuance of the rules of PICAO. 3. To instruct the Danish Meteorological Aeronautical Service to take care that the messages necessary for the air traffic and the meteor- ological institutions are transmitted according to the rules laid down by PICAO and OMI, and to transmit to aircraft over Danish territory the messages necessary for the air traffic. 4. To keep and operate the facilities in the airport of Copenhagen until new facilities are supplied in pursuance of the rules fixed by PICAO, or until it may be agreed upon between the Danish and United States Governments that there is no longer a need for the original facilities for complying with PICAO'S rules. The Danish Government agree that the facilities will be devoted exclusively to the aeronautical service and will not be diverted to other communication service. 5.
