ANSWER TO QUESTION 13 Electra is the holder of an International 214 authorization granted under file number ITC-214- 20030516-00244. Electra is a wholly-owned subsidiary of TTI. TTI owns 100,000 shares of Common Stock (par value $1.00 per share) of Electra. The present application seeks FCC consent for the transfer of control of Electra and the International 214 authorization held by Electra from TTI to Hilliary, an Oklahoma limited liability company that was newly formed to acquire a controlling interest in Electra and its affiliate Tatum Telephone Company, Inc. (Tatum), a Texas corporation (FRN 0003757564). A separate application is being filed through the ECFS to seek approval for the transfer of control to Hilliary of the Domestic 214 authorizations held by Electra and its affiliate, Tatum. Tatum does not hold an International 214 authorization. Hilliary is a holding company with its principal office at P.O. Box 171, #1 Big Rock Boulevard Medicine Park, OK 73557. The principal business of Hilliary is a holding company of entities providing telephone and broadband telecommunications service. The proposed transaction will involve the purchase by Hilliary of the 100,000 shares of Common Stock of Electra owned by TTI. Upon consummation, Hilliary will own 100 percent of Electra. Dustin J. Hilliary is the Managing Partner of Hilliary. Hilliary does not offer domestic telecommunications services.

Attachment 1 FCC Form 214 Page 5 of 5 There will be no change in the day-to-day operations of the International 214 holder as TTI will be retained as a consultant for Hilliary to assist in the transition of Electra to Hilliary pursuant to a Consulting and Not-Competition Agreement. ANSWER TO QUESTION 20 This application qualifies for streamlined processing because none of the parties hereto are affiliated with any foreign carrier nor is any party affiliated with any dominant U.S. carrier whose international switched or private line services is being resold.
