     Dear Ms. Dortch:

            RCN Telecom Services of Illinois, LL                 ("RCN LLC"), by its undersigned attorneys and
     pursuant to Sections 63.03(d) and 63.24 of tt                 Zommission‘s Rules, 47 C.F.R. §§ 63.03(d) and
     63.24, hereby notifies the Commission 0.                    i pro forma assignment of the Section 214
     authorizations of RCN Telecom Services of I!                ois, Inc. ("RCN Inc.") (together with RCN LLC,
     the "Companies") to RCN LLC as a result of                  > change in corporate form described more fully
     below.       The change in corporate form, whic             was completed on December 27, 2002, did not
     involve a change in the ultimate ownership or               ntrol of the Section 214 authorizations.

     Description of the Companies

                 A.           RCN Telecom Services of Illinois, LLC ("RCN LLC")

                 RCN Telecom Services of Illinois, LLC is an Illinois limited liability company with its
     principal business office in Illinois located at 350 N. Orleans Street, Suite 600, Chicago, IL 60654.
     RCN LLC is a 100 percent owned subsidiary of RCN Corporation, a Delaware corporation. RCN
     LLC provides a local, intrastate interexchange, interstate, and international telecommunications
     services to customers in the State of Illinois.

       B.      RCN Telecom Services of Illinois, Inc. ("RCNInc.")

        RCN Inc. was a corporation organized under the laws ofthe State of Illinois with its
principal business office in Illinois located at 350 N. Orleans Street, Suite 600, Chicago, IL
60654. RCN Inc. was a 100 percent owned subsidiary of RCN Corporation. RCN Inc. provided
a local, intrastate interexchange, interstate, and international telecommunications services to
customers in the State of Illinois. As a result of the change in corporate form, RCN Inc. has been
merged into and its operations are now therefore part of RCN LLC.

Description of Change in Corporate Form

        On December 27, 2002, as a result of internal corporate needs and tax considerations,
RCN Inc. changed its corporate form from a corporation to a limited liability company. This was
accomplished by a merger of RCN Inc. into RCN LLC. As a result, the "RCN" company
operating in Illinois was changed to "RCN Telecom Services of Illinois, LLC." All other aspects
of RCN LLC‘s operations remain the same as RCN Inc., including the Company‘s management
and operational personnel. Importantly, the change in corporate form did not involve any change
whatsoever in the rates, terms and conditions under which service is provided to Illinois
customers. Indeed, services will continue to be provided to customers under the "RCN" name,
and there will therefore be no customer confusion whatsoever as a result of the minor change.

Public Interest Considerations

        RCN LLC respectfully submits that the change in corporate form was consistent with the
public interest since it will continue without interruption or change the operations of the
Companies. Moreover, the change in corporate form was completed in a fashion that did not
adversely affect the provision of intrastate, interstate, and international telecommunications
services in or from Illinois or result in any disruption or alteration of services. The change in
corporate form was merely an internal corporate transaction that was transparent to consumers
and has not in any way inconvenienced or adversely impacted customers.
