INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S MANAGEMENT LETTER
Board of Directors
Albion Telephone Company, Inc.
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Albion Telephone Company, Inc. and its
subsidiary for the year ended December 31,2012, and have issued our report thereon dated March 9,
2013. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States of America, the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing
Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, and 7 CFR L773, Poliq on Audi* of
Rural Utilities Seruice (RUS) Borcowers. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material
misstatemenL
In planning and performing our audit of the consolidated financial statements of Albion Telephone
Company, Inc. for the year ended December 37,2012, we considered its internal control over financial
reporting as a basis for designing our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing an opinion on
the consolidated financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we do not express
an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow
management or employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or
detect misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of
deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement
of the entity's consolidated financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a
timely basis.
Our consideration of internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in
the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identiff all deficiencies in internal control
that might be significant deficiencies or material weaknesses. We did not identi$r any deficiencies in
internal control over financial reporting that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S MANAGEMENT TETTER
(continued)
7 CFR L773.33 requires comments on specific aspects of the internal control over financial reporting,
compliance with specific RUS loan and security instrument provisions, and other additional matters. We
have grouped our comments accordingly. In addition to obtaining reasonable assurance about whether
the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatements, at your request, we
performed tests of specific aspects of the internal control over financial reporting, of compliance with
specific RUS loan and security instrument provisions, and of additional matters. The specific aspects of
the internal control over financial reporting compliance with specific RUS loan and security instrument
provisions, and additional matters tested include, among other things, the accounting procedures and
records, compliance with specific RUS loan and security instrument provisions set forth in 7 CFR
7773.33(e){2) and related party transactions and investments. In addition, our audit of the consolidated
financial statements also included the procedures specified in 7 CFR 1773.38-.45. Our objective was not
to provide an opinion on these specific aspects of the internal control over financial reporting,
compliance with specific RUS loan and security instrument provisions, or additional matters, and
accordingly, we express no opinion thereon.
No reports fother than our independent auditor's report, and our independent auditor's report on
internal control over financial reporting and on compliance and other matters, all dated March 9,2073)
or summary of recommendations (other than the audit fieldwork exit memo) related to our audit have
been furnished to management.
Our comments on specific aspects of the internal control over financial reporting, compliance with
specific RUS loan and security instrument provisions, and other additional matters as required by 7 CFR
7773.33 are presented below.
COMMENTS ON CERTAIN SPECIFIC ASPECTS OF THE INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL
REPORTING
We noted no matters regarding Albion Telephone Company, Inc.'s internal control over financial
reporting and its operation that we consider to be a material weakness as previously defined with
respect to:
The accounting procedures and records;
The process for accumulating and recording labor, material, and overhead costs, and the
distribution of these costs to construction, retirement, and maintenance or other expense accounts;
and
The materials control.
