Minster Allied Wireless Communications Corporation 600 Cummings Center, Suite 268z Beverly, MA 01915 RE: Applications of AT&T Inc. and Atlantic Tele-Network, Inc. for Consent to the Transfer of Control of Licenses and Authorizations Held by Atlantic Tele-Network, Inc. and Its Subsidiaries (WT Docket No. 13-54) Dear Mr. Goggins and Mr. Minster: AT&T Inc. (“AT&T”) and Atlantic Tele-Network, Inc. (“ATN”) have filed applications pursuant to sections 214 and 310(d) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended,1 seeking Commission consent to the transfer of control of licenses and authorizations held by ATN’s subsidiaries.2 For the Commission to complete its review of the applications and make the necessary public interest findings under sections 214 and 310(d) of the Communications Act,3 we require additional information and clarification of certain matters discussed in the applications and other information provided to the Commission. We appreciate your efforts to respond to the Information and Discovery Requests sent to you on June 5, 2013, which, among other things, requested AT&T’s plans for migrating all of ATN’s customers following the proposed transaction. In response, we have received information on AT&T’s plans for ATN’s post-paid customers. As of the date of this letter, however, despite several Commission staff follow-up conversations about the importance of transitioning pre-paid customers, we have received no detailed responses from AT&T on its plans for transitioning ATN’s significant pre-paid customer base. We require this information to complete our review of the applications and make the necessary public interest findings under sections 214 and 310(d) of the Communications Act. 1 47 U.S.C. §§ 214, 310(d). 2 See AT&T Inc. and Atlantic Tele-Network, Inc.

We will restart the clock upon complete production of the information discussed herein. Please contact the undersigned with any questions.
