Answer to Questions 10: Justification for need for special temporary authority
requested.

IBFA Acquisition Company, LLC (“IBFA”) hereby requests Special Temporary
Authority to Section 214 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. §
214 (the “Act”) to continue operating under the authority granted by the Commission
under Section 214 of the Act in File No. ITC-214-20050425-00157. The Applicant has
previously submitted a Section 214 Application pursuant to Section 63.24(e) of the
Commission’s Rules, 47 C.F.R. § 63.24 (e) in File No. ITC-T/C-2008050700221. This
request for Special Temporary Authority is required because the underlying transfer
described in the Section 214 Transfer of Control Application is pending, prior to receipt
of permission from the Commission. Special Temporary Authority should be granted
because such a transfer will not occur again without prior Commission authority. In
addition, the public interest is best served by authorizing the transfer and allowing the
Applicant to provide high-quality, low-cost and efficient service to its Customers.

IBFA did not request prior consent from the Commission due to an interpretation of the
rules which differs from the FCC staff. IBFA’s original members included Casimir
Wojciechowski with 50% membership interest and James and Kathleen Grabowski, a
husband and wife with 25% membership interest each. Shortly after the company was
formed it became apparent that Kathleen Grabowski would not be actively participating
in the business and the membership interests were transferred to her husband James
Grabowski.

The Applicants are now informed of their responsibilities and commit themselves to
seeking prior consent before any future transfer of control of the 214 authorization.
