                        In May 2012, Mr. Bell resigned from Epsilon and transferred all of his shares to Mr. Hipp,
                        thereby increasing Mr. Hipp's 40% ownership to 70%. The Applicants did not file an
                        application for approval prior to completing the Transaction because the Transaction did
                        not entail the assignment of any customers, services or licenses, and the Applicants were
                        not aware that Commission approval was required for this type of transaction among the
                        existing shareholders. The Applicants recently sought advice as to the regulatory
                        approvals necessary for a proposed transfer of control to another entity3 and became
                        aware for the first time that approval from the Commission had been necessary for the
                        prior transfer of shares from Mr. Bell to Mr. Hipp. Upon being made aware of the prior
                        omission, Applicants took steps to promptly prepare and file the attached Application
                        together with this request for Special Temporary Authority.

                        Accordingly, the Parties request that the Commission grant the STA to permit Epsilon to
                        continue operating pursuant to its international 214 authority pending approval of the
                        prior transfer. The Parties respectfully request grant of the STA as soon as possible. The
                        Parties acknowledge that grant of this request will not prejudice action by the
                        Commission on the underlying Application, that any authority granted pursuant to this
                        request is subject to cancellation or modification upon notice but without a hearing, and
                        that grant of this request will not impact any enforcement action by the Commission.
