to reinvest in Mid-Tex as a truly passive
investor within the ten year effective
period of the Final Judgment, it should
not be prohibited from doing so. Such
a prohibition will harm only Mid-Tex
and not competition in Texas 9B2. Such
reacquisition of divestiture assets
should not be permitted, however,
absent Department review of the
amended limited partnership
agreement, to enable the Department to
ensure that AT&T has not regained
rights to control core business decisions,
obtain critical confidential competitive
information, and share in profits at a
rate significantly greater than the equity
ownership share upon a sale of the
partnership.11
III. Conclusion
For the foregoing reasons, Mid-Tex
respectfully requests that the
Department require the additional
divestitures discussed herein, and
permit AT&T to reacquire a limited
interest in Mid-Tex as discussed herein.
Should the Department have any
questions regarding the matters
addressed herein, please communicate
directly with the undersigned.
Dated: January 18, 2008.
Respectfully submitted,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
document contains a notice of pendency
before the Department of a proposed
exemption to amend PTE 93–31, an
Underwriter Exemption. The
Underwriter Exemptions are a group of
individual exemptions granted by the
Department that provide substantially
identical relief from certain of the
restrictions of sections 406 and 407 of
the Employee Retirement Income
PO 00000
Frm 00053
Fmt 4703

Security Act of 1974 (ERISA or the Act)
and from the taxes imposed by sections
4975(a) and (b) of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (Code), by
reason of certain provisions of section
4975(c)(1) of the Code for the operation
of certain asset pool investment trusts
and the acquisition, holding, and
disposition by Plans of certain assetbacked pass-through certificates
representing undivided interests in
those investment trusts.
All of the Underwriter Exemptions
were amended by PTE 97–34, 62 FR
39021 (July 21, 1997), PTE 2000–58, 65
FR 67765 (November 13, 2000), and PTE
2007–05, 72 FR 13130 (March 20, 2007),
as corrected at 72 FR 16385 (April 4,
2007). Certain of the Underwriter
Exemptions were amended by PTE
2002–41, 67 FR 54487 (August 22,
2002).
The Department is proposing this
amendment to PTE 93–31 pursuant to
section 408(a) of the Act and section
4975(c)(2) of the Code, and in
accordance with the procedures set
forth in 29 CFR Part 2570, Subpart B (55
FR 32836, 32847, August 10, 1990).2
1. The Underwriter Exemptions
permit Plans to invest in pass-through
securities representing undivided
interests in asset-backed or mortgagebacked investment pools (Securities).
The Securities generally take the form of
certificates issued by a trust (Trust). The
Underwriter Exemptions permit
transactions involving a Trust,
including the servicing, management
and operation of the Trust, and the sale,
exchange or transfer of Securities
evidencing interests therein, in the
initial issuance of the Securities or in
the secondary market for such Securities
(the Covered Transactions). The most
recent amendment to the Underwriter
Exemptions is PTE 2007–05, 72 FR
13130 (March 20, 2007), as corrected at
72 FR 16385 (April 4, 2007) (PTE 2007–
05). One of the General Conditions of
the Underwriter Exemptions, as
amended, requires that the Trustee not
be an ‘‘Affiliate’’ of any member of the
‘‘Restricted Group’’ other than an
‘‘Underwriter.’’ PTE 2007–05,
subsection II.A.(4). The term ‘‘Restricted
2 Section 102 of Reorganization Plan No. 4 of
1978 (5 U.S.C. App. 1 [1996]) generally transferred
the authority of the Secretary of the Treasury to
issue exemptions under section 4975(c)(2) of the
Code to the Secretary of Labor.
