         Re:        WC Docket 13—186

Dear Ms. Dortch:

       The Joint Application for the transfer of control of The Livingston Telephone Company
("LTC") and its subsidiary, Telcom Supply, Inc., as holders of domestic and international
Section 214 authorizations, is supplemented to provide the following information:

             1. As indicated by the application, five preferred stockholders of USConnect Holdings,
                Inc. ("USConnect") are local exchange carriers or affiliated with a local exchange
                carrier. None of service territories of those five stockholders (or affiliates) adjoins or
                overlaps the local exchange service territory of LTC. Attached is a list of county areas
                served in full or in part by the five companies as well as their service area maps:

                (a) Brazoria Telephone Company

                (b) Dickey Rural Telephone Cooperative, Inc.

                (c) Farmers Telephone Cooperative, Inc. (parent of FTC Management Group, Inc.)

                (d) Golden West Telecommunications Cooperative, Inc.

                (e) Horry Telephone Cooperative, Inc.

                With reference to the companies named at item 1(a) through (e) above, all are
                corporations organized as cooperatives in which no stockholder owns or votes as
                much as a one percent interest. FTC Management Group, Inc. is a wholly owned
                subsidiary of Farmers Telephone Cooperative, Inc., a South Carolina corporation with
                the same address. There are no other ownership interests to be disclosed in order to
                comply with Section 63.04(a)(4) of the Commission‘s rules.

                Leo Stauruakis and Manny Staurulakis do not own any other telecommunications
                entities, either individually or jointly (except to the extent either may from time to


July 24, 2013
Page 2

           time hold small, non—controlling interests in public companies engaged in
           telecommunications).

       4. The application is corrected on page 2 to indicate that applicants request streamlined
          processing, consistent with the same request on page 11. As indicated in item 1 of this
          supplement, there are no adjacencies or overlaps in local exchange service territories
           of parties to the application.

         Should any questions arise with regard to this matter, please communicate directly with
this office.

                                             Very truly yours,
