Before the FEDERA] . CO MMUNICATICOCNS COMMISSION Washingtor,, DC 2051 4 In the Matier of TeleDistan:e, Inc. Application Pursuant to Section 214 of the Comn uniciations Act of 19.}4 an 1 Section €3.18 of the Cemmission‘s Rulass for Consent to the Trans ‘er of Control of Tele Jista ace, Inc. from Q@west Communications In:ernational Inc. to Touch America, Inc. Attention: ‘nternational B wreau APPLICA‘TION FOl TRANSI‘ER QF CONTROL Pursuant to Ssction 214 of the Conmunications Act of 11934, as amenc.ed, and Sectioris 63. 18 of she Comm:ssion‘s rules, T~uch America, Inc. ("Touch America") antQ@west Communications nter:natio r1al Inic. (°Qwest") (collec:ively "Applicants") lereb: seel: consent to the transfer of‘ control of TeleD: stance, Inc. ("TeleDistanc»") from Qwest zo Touch America. The progosed ransfer olcontrol will enable Q@west to complete the divestiture of its interLATA business in the 14—state U S WEST, Inc. ("U S WEST") region. The Commission recently found that the merger of Qwest and U S WEST (the "Merger") would serve the public interest. Merger of Qwest Communications International Inc. and U S WEST, Inc., CC Docket No. 99—272, Memorandum Opinion and Order, FCC 00—91 (rel. March 10, 1999). Q@west must divest its interLATA business in the U S WEST region prior to or upon closing the Merger. \\\DC — 66983/15 — #1038714 v15

This a lication seeks authority for Touch America to acquire TeleDistance Holdii ; Inc. ("TD Holdings"), which owns 100 percent of TeleDistance, from Qwest. This application for consent to the sale of a nondominant interex— chang arrier clearly is in the public interest and should proceed on an expedited basis. 1. [RUCTURE OF THE TRANSACTION. Immediately prior to the merger of Qwest and U S WEST, the follow: _: two steps will occur: First, Qwest‘s wholly—owned subsidiaries — Q@west Communications Corpor ion, LCI International Telecom Corp., USLD Communications, Inc., and Phoen Network, Inc., collectively referred to as the "Q@west Subs" — will transfer their i :egion interLATA service customers, together with certain associated networ facilities and employees, to TeleDistance. 1/ That assignment will be achiev through the Qwest Subs‘ transfer of these assets as a dividend payment to Q@west nd a transfer from Qwest, through TD Holdings (the immediate parent compa of TeleDistance), to TeleDistance. All of the related assignments of Section 214 authorizations will be pro forma assignments for which prior Commission approval is not necessary, pursuant to Section 63.24(a)(5). 1/ The mechanics of the assignments to TeleDistance will happen in immediate succession, as follows: (1) the affiliates of TeleDistance that hold the assets to be divested (which include the Qwest Subs and other subsidiaries of Qwest) will dividend or otherwise make intercompany assignments of such assets to Q@west Inc.; (2) Q@west will make a capital contribution of such assets to TD Holdings, the parent of TeleDistance; (3) TD Holdings will make a capital contribution of these assets to TeleDistance. \\\DC — 66983/15 — #1038714 v15

Second, Q@west will transfer the stock of TD Holdings to Touch America, and Touch America will pay cash to Q@west. As a result of this transaction, TeleDistance will remain a wholly—owned subsidiary of TD Holdings but Touch America will have ultimate control over TeleDistance. II. INFORMATION REQUIRED BY SECTION 63.18 Touch America seeks authority to acquire, by transferof control from Q@west, a carrier holding authority under Section 214 to provide interstate and international telecommunications service (the former being held by virtue of the "blanket" Section 214 authorization provided for by Section 63.01 of the Commis— sion‘s rules). 2/ Therefore, pursuant to Section 63.18(e)(3) of the Commission‘s rules, the Applicants submit the following information in support of this Application: (a) The transferor is Q@west Communications International Inc. ("Q@west"). Its address and telephone numbers are: Q@west Communications International Inc. 555 Seventeenth Street Denver, Colorado 80202 Phone: (303) 992—1400 Fax: (303) 992—1044 The transferee is Touch America, Inc.

(0) Touch America certifies pursuant to Sections 1.2001 through 1.2003 of the Commission‘s rules that no party to the application is subject to a denial of federal benefits pursuant to section5301 of the Anti—Drug Abuse Act of 1988. (p) This Application qualifies for streamlined processing pursuant to Section 63.12. It should therefore be granted, according to Section 63.12(a), fourteen days after the date of public notice listing this Application as accepted for filing. \\\DC — 66983/15 — #1038714 v15

This A lication qualifies for streamlined processing because it is not subject to any of the ceptions listed in Section 63.12(c): 3/ (1) uch America is not affiliated with any foreign carrier in a stination market that it proposes to serve. (2) uch America is not affiliated with any dominant U.S. carrier whose vices Touch America (or TeleDistance) seeks authority to resell. (8 ither Touch America nor TeleDistance seeks authority to provide itched basic services over private lines to a country for which the mmission has not previously authorized the provision of switched vices over private lines. III. PUBL INTEREST STATEMENT ‘ e Applicants submit that the proposed transfer of control would serve the puk :interest, convenience, and necessity. First, the requested transfer of control wil asure compliance with Section 271 of the Act at the time Qwest merges with S WESTand will advance the public interest benefits already identified in 1 + Commission order approving that merger. Merger of Qwest and U S WEST,FE 3.00—91. Second, existing customers will be protected, because 3/ The C imission decidedin its 1997 order implementing the World Trade Organization lecommunications liberalization agreement, and reaffirmed during its 1998 biennial regulatory review, that applications for assignments and transfers of control of Section 214 authorizations would be eligible for streamlined processing where an initial Section 214 application filed by the transferee would be eligible for streamlined processing. Rules and Polictes on Foreign Participation in the U.S. Telecommunications Market, Report and Order, 12 FCC Red 23,891, 24,032—33, « 322 (1997); 1998 Biennial Regulatory Review — Review of International Common Carrier Regulations, Report and Order, 14 FCC Red 4909, 4919 [ 22 (1999). The fact that TeleDistance provides domestic telecommunications service (pursuant to the "blanket" Section 214 authorization codified in Section 63.01) in addition to its authorized international services should not render this application ineligible for streamlined processing. Indeed, such a conclusion would render the Commission‘s streamlining policy a nullity, since virtually all applicants provide domestic, as well as international, service. There is no reason to make an exception in this case. 8 \\\DC — 66983715 — #1038714 v15

TeleDistance will continue providing them the same services that they receive today from Qwest. Third, the transfer of control will expand the reach of Touch America‘s service offerings, thus increasing the reach of that growing competitive carrier. This would benefit consumers by promoting competition in the markets for interstate and international services. \\\DC — 66983715 — #1038714 v15
