       No other person or entity directly or indirectly holds a 10 percent or greater interest in NE
Colorado Cellular.

Answer to Question 13:

        NE Colorado Cellular hereby notifies the Commission of the pro forma transfer of
control that occurred on March 27, 2019 as a result of a corporate restructuring. Specifically,
Viaero Wireless Technologies, a newly formed holding company, has been inserted into the
ownership chain as the parent company of NE Colorado Cellular.
        All of the individuals and entities that previously held a direct interest in the shares of NE
Colorado Cellular now hold their respective interests indirectly. Their stock holdings now reside
in Viaero Wireless Technologies, which in turn holds 100% of NE Colorado Cellular, the FCC
licensee. None of the respective shareholder interests have changed.
       The transfer of control is pro forma in nature because the Section 214 holder, NE
Colorado Cellular, which is ultimately controlled by Francis J. DiRico, continues to remain
under Mr. DiRico’s control both prior to and following consummation of the transaction. Mr.
DiRico continues to control a majority of the shareholder interests in the new parent company,
and no other shareholder interests have changed.
