Under Section 214 of the Communications Act, WC Docket No. 08-238 Dear Ms. Dortch: In response to the Wireline Competition Bureau’s request, the attached exhibits list the providers that Embarq and CenturyTel have identified through several databases in the markets where they operate in adjacent exchanges. Because each company uses different sources to identify providers, we have separated the lists into two exhibits, one for Embarq and one for CenturyTel. Embarq’s provider list is compiled from five sources: (1) the MediaPrints database; (2) Ported Line Reports dating back to August 2006; (3) UNE LOOP & UNEP Reports; (4) internal wholesale reseller accounts; and (5) cell tower sites. CenturyTel’s provider list is compiled from four sources: (1) wholesale billing accounts; (2) internal marketing data; (3) Port Away reports dating back to December 2006; and (4) data from USAC. In addition, we have attached an exhibit containing maps of all adjacent exchanges. For your convenience, the two competitor list exhibits reference the map number where each adjacent exchange is located. Please let

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE AT WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 3, 2005 (202) 514-2007 WWW.USDOJ.GOV TDD (202) 514-1888 STATEMENT OF THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE ANTITRUST DIVISION ON THE CLOSING OF THE INVESTIGATION OF SPRINT CORPORATION’S ACQUISITION OF NEXTEL COMMUNICATIONS INC. Investigation Focused on Whether Merger of Two Mobile Wireless Carriers Would Lessen Competition WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Department of Justice’s Antitrust Division issued the following statement today after the Department announced the closing of its investigation into Sprint Corporation’s proposed acquisition of Nextel Communications Inc.: “The Division thoroughly investigated Sprint’s proposed acquisition of Nextel. Based on the facts, the Division found that the Sprint-Nextel merger would not give the companies market power in the areas in which they compete. Purchasers of mobile wireless services will continue to have a number of other carriers from which to choose after the merger. Although we did not find a need to challenge this merger to preserve competition, we did require divestitures in the recent ALLTEL-Western Wireless and Cingular Wireless-AT&T Wireless mergers, and we will continue to be vigilant in our enforcement of the antitrust laws with respect to any further proposed consolidation in this area. “The Division focused its investigation on mobile wireless telecommunications services that Sprint and Nextel currently offer, as well as on developing products such as advanced wireless broadband services where the companies are potential competitors. None of the theories of competitive harm that the Division considered were ultimately supported by the facts. The Division found no substantial proof that the merged company could unilaterally exercise market power postmerger or that there likely would be competitive harm from coordinated interaction among the merged company and other remaining providers.
