The audit of the financial statements of the Consolidated Communications 401(k) Plan For Texas Bargaining Associates cannot be completed within the prescribed time period due to delayed receipt of plan information from the registrant’s trustee and other external providers. Therefore, the registrant cannot complete its annual report on Form 11-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 on a timely basis, which cannot be overcome without unreasonable effort and expense. A letter from the registrant’s current independent public accounting firm is attached as Exhibit 99 hereto.
