 j Transferor is also the majority shareholder of Oration, which applied for and received Section 214 authority under
 the name, Oration Technologies Holdings, L.L.C. By letter of August 28, 2000, Oration notified the Commission
 that it had changed its name to Oration Technologies Holdings, Inc. By subsequent letter of September 5, 2000,
 Oration notified the Commission that Oration had, in fact, changed its name to Oration Technologies, Inc., not
 Oration Technologies Holdings, Inc. While captioned as a name change, this action was in fact a proforma
 assignment of Oration‘s Section 214 authority under Section 63.24(a)(4) of the FCC‘s Rules. In a separately filed
 application for transfer of control of Oration‘s Section 214 authority, Oration is correcting and clarifying its August
 28, 2000 and September 5, 2000 correspondence and notifying the Commission of the proforma assignment of its
 Section 214 authorization, pursuant to Section 63.24(b) of the FCC‘s Rules.
