Attachment 1 Page 3 of 3 Citizenship: U.S. Principal business: None Indirect ownership interest: 31% Neither Nathan R. Weis, the Weis Children Trust, nor the beneficiaries and trustee of the Weis Children Trust has an interlocking directorate with a foreign carrier. Answer To Question 13 – Description of Transfer of Control and Public Interest Inland Cellular Telephone Company (“ICTC”), a Washington corporation, is the holder of an international Section 214 authorization under IBFS File No. ITC-20000731-00443. The existing shareholders of ICTC have entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement pursuant to which ICTC will buy back the shares held by all stockholders other than by Nathan R. Weis (“Weis”) and the Weis Children Trust (which holds shares of ICTC for the benefit of Weis’ children). Following receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals and satisfaction of other contractual conditions, ICTC will repurchase those shares, and the only shares of ICTC that will remain issued and outstanding will be held by Nathan R. Weis (69%) and the Weis Children Trust (31%). As a result of this transaction, Nathan R. Weis for the first time will have a controlling interest in ICTC. ICTC is the parent corporation of Inland Cellular LLC, a U.S. limited liability company (“ICL”), which does business as Inland Cellular. ICL is a small wireless provider providing quality local cellular service since 1990 in the states of Washington and Idaho. From the beginning, its goal has been to provide customers with the friendliest, most complete customer service in the area while providing local cellular service that is second to none. Transferee Nathan R. Weis has had a non-controlling interest in ICTC for 25 years and has been actively involved in the growth and operation of the cellular business. He is thus well qualified to acquire a controlling interest in ICTC and its international Section 214 authorization. Answer To Question 20 – Section 63.12 The Applicants request, and are eligible for, streamlined processing of the Application. Neither the Section 214 holder ICTC nor Transferee Nathan R. Weis is affiliated with a foreign carrier; nor is there an affiliation with a dominant U.S. carrier whose international switched or private line services will be resold. See Sections 63.12(c) and 63.18(p) of the FCC’s rules. Conclusion For the reasons stated above, Applicants respectfully submit that the public interest, convenience, and necessity would be furthered by a grant of this Application for the above- described transaction. Applicants respectfully request streamlined processing to permit the Applicants to complete the transaction as soon as possible.
