Incorporated in November 1935, we are the fourth largest incumbent local exchange carrier in the United States
based on number of access lines. Our business is with both residential and business customers and we provide the
"last mile" of telecommunications services to customers in these markets.
We offer a broad portfolio of high-quality communications services for residential and business customers in
each of our markets. These include services traditional y associated with local telephone companies, as wel as other
services such as long distance, Internet access, broadband-enabled services and video services. We offer these
services both á la carte and, increasingly, as bundled packages which are purposely designed to simplify customer
purchasing decisions and to provide the customer with pricing discounts. We also offer incentives and promotions
such as gifts to influence customers to purchase or retain certain services. We also enhance customer retention by
offering one-, two- and three-year price protection plans under which customers commit to a term in exchange for
predictable pricing or other incentives and promotions. We are staffed local y with skil ed technicians and supervisory
personnel, which enables us to efficiently and reliably provide an array of communications services to meet our
customers' needs. Our call center operations and field technicians are staffed with 100% U.S.-based personnel.
Our mission is to be the leader in providing communications services to residential and business customers in
our markets. We are committed to delivering innovative and reliable products and solutions with an emphasis on
convenience, service and customer satisfaction. We believe that our local management structure, 100% U.S.-based
customer service and innovative product positioning wil continue to differentiate us from our competitors in the
markets in which we compete.
