S. C. § 862. See 47 C. F. R. §§ 1.2001-. 2003. A current version of Section 63.09-. 24 of the rules, and other related sections, is available at http:// www. fcc. gov/ ib/ pd/ pf/ telecomrules. html. ITC- T/ C- 20060524- 00289 E TO: Application for consent to transfer control of international section 214 authorization, ITC- 214- 20060501- 00261, held by CGKC& H No. 2 Rural Cellular Limited Partnership (" CGKCH No. 2"), from the current stockholders of its parent, Valor Communications Group, Inc. (Valor), which holds a 32% indirect general partnership interest in CGKCH No. 2, to the post- merger stockholders of New Valor (New Valor). Following a merger between Valor and ALLTEL Holding Corporation (AHC), New Valor will consist of current subsidiaries of Valor and ALLTEL Corporation (ALLTEL), AHC's parent. New Valor will be the same corporate entity as Valor, but likely with a new name as the surviving entity of the merger transaction. Valor is a publicly traded company that holds direct and indirect interests in carriers providing a number of telecommunications services, including local exchange and long distance services and AHC is a newly formed, wholly- owned subsidiary of ALLTEL. As a result of the merger, which will involve the issuance of approximately 400 million new shares of Valor stock, current ALLTEL stockholders will hold 85 percent of New Valor common stock and pre- merger stockholders of Valor will hold 15 percent of New Valor common stock. The overall transaction will also result in New Valor acquiring 100 percent ownership of ALLTEL subsidiaries (to be contributed pre- merger by ALLTEL to AHC) that conduct ALLTEL's wireline businesses and other businesses including directory publishing operations, information services, product distribution operations and management services (other than such operations that support ALLTEL's wireless telecommunications business). ALLTEL subsidiaries providing wireless telecommunications services will not become subsidiaries of New Valor. Valor Communications Group, Inc.
