Re:       Notice of a Pro Forma Transfer of Direct Control of
          TNCI Operating Company LLC

Dear Ms. Dortch:

TNCI Operating Company LLC (“TNCI OpCo”), pursuant to 47 C.F.R. § 63.24(f), notifies the
Commission of an intra-company change (the “Pro Forma Change”) that resulted in the pro
forma transfer of direct control of TNCI OpCo from TNCI Holdings LLC (“TNCI Holdings”) to
TNCI Impact LLC (“TNCI Impact”).1 Since TNCI Holdings was a direct, wholly owned
subsidiary of Garrison TNCI LLC (“Parent”) prior to the Pro Forma Change and TNCI Impact is
a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Parent after the Pro Forma Change, the transfer of control
of TNCI OpCo was pro forma in nature.

                                  Information Required by Section 63.24(f)(2)

As required by Section 63.24(f)(2), the Parties provide the following information required by
63.18(a) through (d) and (h):

        The Commission was notified of this Pro Forma Change in connection with the transfer of
control of Matrix Telecom, Inc. to Garrison TNCI LLC. See IB File No. ITC-T/C-20151105-00253.

Answer to Question 12 - Section 63.18(h) Interlocking Directorates

      TNCI OpCo has an interlocking directorate with Vancouver Telephone Company

Limited (“VTC”), a non-dominant foreign carrier in Canada. See IB File No. ITC-T/C-

20151105-00253.

Answer to Question 13 - Description of Transfer of Control

      The pro forma transfer of direct control of TNCI OpCo to TNCI Impact LLC resulted

from the distribution of TNCI OpCo’s membership interest held by TNCI Holdings to Parent,

which then contributed those membership interests to TNCI Impact. These internal corporate




                                  Attachment 1 - Page 3


transactions were completed on December 31, 2015. Before the transfer, TNCI OpCo was a

direct, wholly owned subsidiary of TNCI Holdings, and TNCI Holdings and TNCI Impact were

direct, wholly owned subsidiaries of Parent. Following the Pro Forma Change, TNCI OpCo is a

direct, wholly owned subsidiary of TNCI Impact, which is a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of

Parent.
