Answer to Question 13:

Description of the Transaction and Public Interest Statement

On April 7, 2010, the parties consummated transactions involving the assignment of
Tricom USA‘s international Section 214 authorizations ("International Section 214
Assignment Application")" pursuant to a plan of reorganization ("Plan of
Reorganization")° under U.S. bankruptey laws and in accordance with the Commission‘s
consent.
The exact indirect ownership of the reorganized Tricom USA could not be determined
prior to the reissuance of stock pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization. Accordingly, in
the International Section 214 Assignment Application, the parties provided estimates of
the equity ownership percentages that would be held by each ten (10) percent or greater
interest holder in Hispaniola Telecom Holdings, Ltd. ("Holding Company"), the holding
company holding at least 97 percent of the ownership interests of reorganized Tricom,
S.A. ("Tricom, S.A."), the direct parent company of Tricom USA. As reported in the
International Section 214 Assignment Application, the parties reasonably believed that,
post—consummation, AMZAK would hold a direct ownership interest in Holding
Company in excess of 18.5 percent but less than 50 percent, and that two other investors,
Ellis Portafolio, S.A. ("Ellis") and MAP Private Trust Company ("MAP"), would hold
10.7 percent and 13.4 percent ownership interests in Holding Company, respectively.

5        See Application for the Assignment of International Section 214 Authorizations from Tricom
USA, Inc. Debtor—in—Possession to Tricom USA, Inc., IB Dockets: ITC—AS$G—20091223—00543 and SCL—
ASG—20091223—00040. The International Section 214 Assignment Application was granted on January 29,
2010. See International Authorizations Granted, Public Notice, DA 10—232, 25 FCC Red 1279 (2010).
6         Prior to the consummation of the Plan of Reorganization, the international Section 214
authorizations held by Tricom USA (referred to in the Section 214 Assignment Application as "New
Tricom USA") were previously held by Tricom USA, Inc. Debtor—in—Possession. Tricom USA, Inc.,
Debtor—in—Possession previously notified the Commission of the pro forma assignment of the Section 214
authorizations from Tricom USA, Inc. (referred to in the Section 214 Assignment Application as "Old
Tricom USA") to Tricom USA, Inc. Debtor—in—Possession. See Notification of the Pro Forma Assignment
of International Section 214 Authorizations from Tricom USA, Inc. to Tricom USA, Inc. as Debtor—in—
Possession, File No. ITC—ASG—20080327—00158.

                                                 —4—


During the time period following the Section 214 Assignment Application and prior to
the date of consummation, April 7, 2010, AMZAK acquired further unsecured claims for
borrowed money against Tricom, S.A. and its subsidiaries. As a result, as of the date of
consummation, AMZAK, held a 57.2 percent ownership interest in Holding Company.
Ellis and MAP respectively held 12.5 percent and 19.0 percent ownership interests in
Holding Company. An ownership chart for Tricom USA, post—transfer of control, is set
forth in Exhibit A."                                                                  -
Further, the following transactions occurred. On or about April 7, 2010, AMZAK
transferred its interest in Holding Company to its wholly—owned subsidiary Broadband
Investments Limited ("Broadband"), a Barbados limited liability company. On April 15,
2010, Ellis and MAP transferred their ownership interests in Holding Company to
Broadband. On or about June 7, 2010, Broadband transferred a portion ofits ownership
interest in Holding Company to PTY Capital Partners Ltd. ("PTY Capital Partners"), a
British Virgin Islands company. As a result of these transactions, Broadband now holds a
55.9 percent ownership interest in Holdlng Company and PTY Capital Partners now
holds a 20.5 percent ownership interest in Holding Company An ownership chart for
Tricom USA, post—pro forma transfer of control, is set forth in Exhibit B.
In order to bring the transfer of majority control to AMZAK and the pro forma transfer to
Broadband into compliance with the Commission‘s Rules, in addition to the instant pro
Fforma notification, the parties have filed an international Section 214 application for
transfer of control of Tricom USA to AMZAK ("International Section 214 Transfer of
Control Application") and a request for special temporary authority (STA) to continue to
operate during the pendency of the International Section 214 Transfer of Control
Application and related filings.




?        Applicants informed the Commission of these post—transfer of control ownership percentages in a
consummation notice filed on May 7, 2010 via ECFS and IBFS. See Letter to Ms. Marlene Dortch,
Secretary, from Michelle W. Cohen, dated May 7, 2010, WC Docket No. 10—16, IB Dockets: ITC—ASG—
2009 1223—00543 and SCL—ASG—20091223—00040.
       As noted above, Contemporary Investments Ltd. ("Contemporary Investments"), a Bahamas
company, holds 100 percent of the ownership interests of PTY Capital Partners. Alberto C. Motta, Jr. and
Stanley A. Motta, citizens of Panama, each hold a 50 percent ownership interest in Contemporary
Investments.
