Response to Item 9 – Description

        Pursuant to Section 214 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (the “Act”),
and Section 63.24 of the Commission’s rules, 47 C.F.R. § 63.24, South Carolina Net, Inc.
(“SCNet” or “Assignor”) and South Carolina Telecommunications Group Holdings, LLC
(“SCTG Holdings” or “Assignee,” and together with SCNet, the “Applicants”) hereby notify the
Commission of the pro forma assignment of the international Section 214 authorization, as
identified by FCC file number ITC-214-19930512-00081 (“International 214 Authorization”)
held by SCNet, from SCNet to SCTG Holdings. The assignment was effective as of December
3, 2014, pursuant to the Instrument Of Assignment From South Carolina Net, Inc. To SCTG
Holdings, LLC (“Instrument of Assignment”), by which SCNet assigned all of its right, title, and
interest in the International 214 Authorization to its immediate parent company, SCTG Holdings.
Pursuant to the Instrument of Assignment, SCTG Holdings assumed all of the rights and
obligations arising out of or in connection with the International 214 Authorization. The
assignment was effectuated to provide SCTG Holdings with the requisite authority to provide the
international services authorized under the International 214 Authorization, as well as to allow
SCTG Holdings to offer the international services authorized under the International 214
Authorization through its wholly-owned subsidiary SCNet.

        The assignment was pro forma because there was no change in the ultimate ownership or
control of the International 214 Authorization. SCNet is a wholly-owned subsidiary of SCTG
Holdings. SCTG Holdings is a wholly-owned subsidiary of SCTG, LLC (“SCTG”). This
transaction is the type of transaction listed in Note 2 to Rule § 63.24(d) as being considered
presumptively pro forma and not requiring prior approval from the Commission, specifically an
“[a]ssignment or transfer from a corporation to a wholly owned direct or indirect subsidiary
thereof or vice versa, or where there is an assignment from a corporation to a corporation owned
or controlled by the assignor stockholders without substantial change in their interests.”1

Answer to Question 13

The pro forma assignment of SCNet’s International 214 Authorization to SCTG Holdings was
accomplished pursuant to an Instrument of Assignment. Pursuant to the Instrument of
Assignment, SCTG Holdings assumed all of the rights and obligations of SCNet with regard to
the International 214 Authorization. This assignment was effective as of December 3, 2014.
Because SCNet is a wholly-owned subsidiary of SCTG Holdings and both SCNet and SCTG
Holdings are either directly or indirectly wholly owned by SCTG, the assignment did not result
in a change in the ultimate ownership or control of the International 214 Authorization.
Accordingly, the transaction was pro forma in nature.

As a wholly-owned subsidiary of SCTG Holdings, SCNet will continue to provide international
services pursuant to SCTG Holding’s International 214 Authority.
