Notification filed February 27, 2018, of the pro forma transfer of control of Columbus Networks Puerto Rico, Inc. (CNPR), which holds
international section 214 authorization ITC-214-20091127-00497, from Liberty Global plc (Liberty Global) to Liberty Latin America Ltd
(Liberty Latin America), effective December 29, 2017.
Prior to the transaction, CNPR, a Puerto Rico corporation, was an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Liberty Global, a publicly-traded
company organized under the laws of England and Wales.  Liberty Latin America, organized under the laws of Bermuda, was also a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Liberty Global.  Liberty Global's shares were divided into two tracking groups, both of which are listed on the
NASDAQ Stock Exchange: (1) Liberty Global Group which primarily tracks Liberty Global's European operations, and (2) the LiLAC Group,
which primarily tracked Liberty Global's Latin American and Caribbean operations.
On December 27, 2017, Liberty Global spun off the businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to the LiLAC Group to Liberty Latin America.
Consequently, CNPR is now an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Liberty Latin America.  Liberty Global no longer has an ownership interest
in Liberty Latin America or CNPR.
As a result of the spin-off transaction the shares of Liberty Latin America are owned by the previous holders of the LiLAC Group tracking stock.
The same shareholders that controlled Liberty Global controlled Liberty Latin America following the spin-off transaction.

(11) Except as otherwise ordered by the Commission, a carrier authorized here to provide facilities-based service that (i)
is classified as dominant under Section 63.10 of the rules for the provision of such service on a particular route and (ii) is
affiliated with a carrier that collects settlement payments for terminating U.S. international switched traffic at the foreign
