                                Section 63.24(f) Notification of Pro Forma Transfer of Control

  Dear Ms. Dortch:

                  XO Communications, LLC ("XO LLC"), by its counsel and pursuant to Section
  63.24(f) of the Commission‘s Rules, hereby notifies the Commission of a pro forma change in
  XO LLC‘s ownership. XO LLC holds the international Section 214 authorization referenced
  above.

                 The proforma transaction involved the merger ("Merger") of XO Merger Corp.
  ("Merger Sub") into XO LLC‘s parent company, XO Holdings, Inc. ("XO Holdings"). Merger
  Sub was a wholly—owned subsidiary of five (5) entities — Arnos Corp., Arnos Sub Corp., ACF
  Industries Holding Corp., Highcrest Investors Corp., and Barberry Corporation (together, the
  "Parent Group") — that collectively held approximately 92% of the voting interests in XO
  Holdings before closing. The Parent Group is controlled by Carl C. Icahn; The Merger was
  consummated on August 18, 2011 and XO Holdings was the surviving entity. At the effective
  time of the Merger, all common stock in XO Holdings other than the common stock held by the
  Parent Group was cancelled and automatically converted into a right for the stockholders to
  receive cash and other consideration. As such, XO Holdings became a wholly—owned subsidiary
  of the Parent Group as a result of the Merger. Shortly following the Merger, on August 31,
   2011, XO Holdings, a Delaware corporation, was converted into a Delaware limited liability

company ("XO Holdings, LLC").‘ Arnos Corp., Arnos Sub Corp. and ACF Industries Holding
Corp. also converted into limited liability companies.

               Before the Merger, Mr. Icahn held a controlling, majority indirect ownership
interest in XO Holdings through the Parent Group and thus in XO LLC. After the transaction,
Mr. Icahn holds a controlling, 100% indirect ownership interest in XO Holdings, LLC through
the Parent Group and thus in XO LLC. Thus, the transaction was pro forma as a corporate
reorganization that involved no substantial change in the beneficial ownership of XO LLC.

               Appended hereto as Exhibit A is a diagram showing the corporate ownership
structure of XO LLC following the pro forma transaction (and conversions).

               In accordance with Section 63.24(f) of the Commission‘s Rules, XO LLC
provides the following information in paragraphs (a) through (d) and (h) of §63.18 for the
transferee:

                  (a)    The address and telephone numberof the transferee is:

                         XO Communications, LLC ("XO LLC")
                         13865 Sunrise Valley Drive
                         Herndon, Virginia 20171—4661
                         (703) 547—2000

                  (b)    XO LLC is a limited liability company organized under the laws of the
                         State of Delaware.



                  XO LLC previously notified the Commission that it provides international
                  telecommunications services through five wholly—owned subsidiaries: XO
                  Communications Services, Inc. ("XOCS"), a Delaware corporation (See Report
                  No. TEL—00942, DA No. 05—2397, rel. Sept. 1, 2005, citing June 2, 2005 letter of
                  XO LLC in File No. ITC—214—20001117—00674); XO Virginia, LLC, a
                  Washington limited liability company and Telecommunications of Nevada, LLC,
                  a Delaware limited liability company (See Report No. TEL—003228, File No, ITC—
                  214—200011177—00674, rel. 12/1/00); XO International, Inc. ("XO Intl."), a
                  Delaware corporation (See Report No. TEL—O01364, DA No. 09—1254, rel. June 4,
                  2009, citing May 8, 2009 letter of XO LLC in File No. ITC—214—20001117—
                  00674); and XO NS, Inc., a Nova Scotia corporation (letter of XO LLC in File
                  No. ITC—214—20001117—00674 filed November 5, 2007). Shortly following the
                  Merger, XOCS and XO Intl. were converted into Delaware limited liability
                  companies. Today, XO LLC provides international services through these five
                  entities.
