          Re: Gabriel Communications Section 214 Application

 Dear Ms. Eisenstein:

        As we discussed yesterday with respect to the above—referenced Section 214
application (which was filed on March 23, 1999), I have checked—with my client and
confirmed the following ownership information for section (h)(2) of the application.
The only indirect shareholder with a 10% or greater interest in Gabriel Communications,
Inc. ("Gabriel") is Robert A. Brooks, through his ownership in Brooks Investments, LP.
Mr. Brooks is a U.S, citizen with an address of 55 Sanctuary Drive, Long Boat Key,
Florida 34228. His primary business is running Gabriel and investing in other
communications ventures. Gabriel has no other indirect shareholders with a 10% or
greater interest.

        Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions regarding
this matter.

                                                  Sincerely,

  ‘                                                           £. Whak
                                                     an E. Neal
