Attachment (1)

  1. Is DMTS a separate legal entity?  If no, provide:
    1. the date it stopped being a separate legal entity and the name of the legal entity that purchased it; and
    2. the monthly residential high-cost network access service (NAS) counts, by band, for the end of each month from the time it stopped being a separate legal entity until 31 December 2015.
  2. Is KMTS a separate legal entity?  If no, provide:
    1. the date it stopped being a separate legal entity and the name of the legal entity that purchased it; and
    2. the monthly residential high-cost NAS counts, by band, for the end of each month from the time it stopped being a separate legal entity until 31 December 2015.
  3. If either DTMS or KMTS is no longer a separate legal entity, explain, with supporting rationale, why separate subsidy, based on the small incumbent local exchange carrier subsidy regime, should still be provided.
