Notification filed October 18, 2017, of the pro forma transfer of control of GU Holdings Inc. (GU Holdings) from Alphabet Inc. (Alphabet) to
XXVI Holdings, Inc. (XXVI Holdings), effective September 30, 2017.  GU Holdings is a licensee on three cable landing licenses: (1) Unity cable
system, SCL-LIC-20080516-00010, (2) Monet cable system, SCL-LIC-20150408-00008, and (3) Faster cable system,
SCL-LIC-20150626-00015.  In addition, GU Holdings is also an applicant for the Pacific Light Cable Network, SCL-LIC-20170421-00012.
GU Holdings was an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Google Inc., which in turn was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alphabet.  In a corporate
reorganization, Alphabet inserted XXVI Holdings, a newly created corporation, into the vertical ownership chain between it and Google Inc., and
then transferred ownership of Google Inc. to XXVI Holdings.  Consequently, Google Inc. became a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of XXVI
Holdings.  Google Inc. was then converted from a corporation into a limited liability corporation, Google LLC.  Alphabet was and remains the
ultimate owner of GU Holdings.
