Sierra Tel Requested Rate Increase.

The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) is holding a Public Participation Hearing in
Oakhurst on Sierra Telephone’s request to increase rates for basic residential and business
1- party service, LifeLine service, inside wire maintenance plan, returned check charge, and a
proposal to establish a late payment charge.

Sierra is requesting CPUC approval of its intrastate rates and charges for telecommunications
services, for updates to its intrastate revenue requirement, and for establishment of a rate
design. Sierra proposes to update its revenue requirement to $28,937,006. In its last rate case,
the CPUC approved a revenue requirement for Sierra of $29,970,934. If Sierra Telephone’s rate
request is approved by the CPUC, the residential basic rates would be set at approximately
$32.37 (including state and federal fees and surcharges), and the basic business rate would be
set at $33 (not including surcharges and fees).
