ADDITIONAL INFORMATION BACKGROUNDTHESE ADDITIONAL, VOLUNTARY DISCLOSURES ARE INTENDED TO GIVE THE INTERESTED READER GREATER INSIGHT INTO INSTRUCTIONAL TELECOMMUNICATIONS FOUNDATION, INC. (ITF, INC.).ON BEHALF OF A NUMBER OF NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS, ITF INC.'S PRESIDENT, JOHN SCHWARTZ, LED AN EFFORT TO APPLY FOR WHAT WERE THEN REFERRED TO AS INSTRUCTIONAL TELEVISION FIXED SERVICES (ITFS) LICENSES FROM THE FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION. THOSE APPLICATIONS WERE ORIGINALLY SUBMITTED IN THE EARLY 1980S. MR. SCHWARTZ BELIEVED THAT SEPERATE NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS WITH LOCAL BOARDS OF DIRECTORS WOULD BETTER SERVE THE SCHOOLS AND COMMUNITIES COVERED BY THESE LICENSES. IN THE END, FIVE NONPROFITS LED BY MR. SCHWARTZ APPLIED FOR AND RECEIVED A TOTAL OF 11 ITFS LICENSES. TODAY, JOHN SCHWARTZ REMAINS ON THE BOARD OF TWO OF FIVE NONPROFITS, WHICH WERE FORMALLY KNOW AS THE VOQAL NONPROFITS. ITF, INC. IS ONE OF THOSE FIVE.FOR NEARLY TWO DECADES, ITF, INC. PROVIDED FREE EDUCATIONAL VIDEO PROGRAMMING TO SCHOOLS VIA ITS FCC-LICENSED ITFS STATIONS. WHILE DOING SO, IT SHARED SOME OF IT OVERHEAD AND ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS WITH THE OTHER FOUR NONPROFITS, WHICH WERE PROVIDING VERY SIMILAR SERVICE TO THEIR LOCAL COMMUNITIES. THIS APPROACH RESULTED IN SIGNIFICANT COST SAVINGS, ALLOWING ITF, INC. TO DELIVER BETTER EDUCATIONAL SERVICE. THE SHARING OF PERSONNEL AND OTHER RESOURCES AMONG THE NONPROFITS WAS THE BEGINNING OF WHAT WOULD LATER BECOME EBS SUPPORT SERVICES, LLC (EBSSS) THE UMBRELLA SERVICE ORGANIZATION THAT TODAY PROVIDES PERSONNEL AND OPERATIONAL SUPPORT TO ALL FIVE NONPROFITS.TO EXPAND THEIR ABILITY TO FULFILL ITS EDUCATIONAL MISSION AND OTHERWISE BENEFIT THE PUBLIC, THE FIVE NONPROFITS ENTERED INTO VARIOUS SPECTRUM USE AGREEMENTS WITH COMMERCIAL TELECOMMUNICATIONS OPERATORS. THE NONPROFITS ALLOWED COMMERCIAL FIRMS TO USE THEIR ITFS, AND LATER, EDUCATIONAL BROADBAND SERVICE (EBS) EXCESS SPECTRUM CAPACITY IN THEIR WIRELESS NETWORKS. IN EXCHANGE, THESE AGREEMENTS PROVIDED SIGNIFICANT FINANCIAL BENEFITS THROUGH SPECTRUM ROYALTY PAYMENTS, AS WELL AS MATERIAL IN-KIND EDUCATIONAL BENEFITS SUCH AS HIGH-SPEED BROADBAND INTERNET ACCOUNTS. THE NONPROFITS' CURRENT SPECTRUM AGREEMENTS ARE WITH CLEARWIRE SPECTRUM AGREEMENTS ARE WITH CLEARWIRE SPECTRUM HOLDINGS II, LLC. NOW A T-MOBILE SUBSIDIARY (HEREAFTER REFERRED TO AS T-MOBILE).WITH THE INCREASED RESOURCES AFFORDED BY THESE MOST RECENT SPECTRUM AGREEMENTS, THE NONPROFITS, INCLUDING ITF, INC., EXPANDED THE NUMBER AND REACH OF THEIR EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS TO INCLUDE NEW EDUCATION VENTURES, AFFORDABLE INTERNET SERVICE FOR SCHOOLS AND NONPROFITS, CASH GRANTS, EBS SPECTRUM ADVOCACY AND MORE. AS IT EXPANDED, THE NONPROFITS CONTINUED TO SHARE RESOURCES WITH THE EACH OTHER. THE NONPROFITS HAVE STRIVED TO FULFILL THE MISSION OF EBS, FROM ITS BEGINNINGS PROVIDING FREE, ITFS VIDEO TO SCHOOLS TO RECENT EFFORTS TO SUPPORT CHANGE-MAKERS IN EDUCATION. WHILE SOME PROGRAMS SERVE WHAT MANY WOULD CONSIDER TRADITIONAL EDUCATIONAL ENTITIES LIKES K-12 SCHOOLS, ITF, INC. EMBRACES A BROADER VIEW OF EDUCATION AND AIMS TO ENSURE EQUAL ACCESS TO KNOWLEDGE TO FOSTER A STRONGER, HEALTHIER DEMOCRACY. OUR PROJECTS ARE OFTEN AIMED AT THE ROOT CAUSES THAT BAR ACCESS TO KNOWLEDGE BOTH IN AND OUT OF TRADITIONAL BRICK AND MORTAR INSTITUTIONS. EXAMPLES OF MORE TRADITIONAL EDUCATIONAL PROJECTS INCLUDE PROVIDING SCHOOLS WITH FREE AND HIGHLY SUBSIDIZED INTERNET ACCOUNTS AND MOBILE CITIZEN'S EFFORTS TO ENSURE THAT STUDENTS HAVE ACCESS TO THE INTERNET BOTH AT SCHOOL AND AT HOME.IN ADDITION, ITF INC. IS PROUD TO HAVE BEEN A FUNDER OF CRASH COURSE U.S. GOVERNMENT AND POLITICS. CRASH COURSE IS AN EDUCATIONAL YOUTUBE CHANNEL FEATURING 10-MINUTE VIDEOS THAT CONDENSE COMPLEX TOPICS INTO QUIRKY, ENGAGING TUTORIALS. CRASH COURSE'S YOUTUBE CHANNEL HAS OVER 8 MILLION SUBSCRIBERS, AND THE VIDEOS ARE SHOWN IN CLASSROOMS ACROSS THE COUNTRY, AS WELL AS WATCHED BY THE PUBLIC AT LARGE.IN ADDITION TO THE PROJECTS LISTED ABOVE, ITF, INC. IS PART OWNER OF THE LLCS DETAILED BELOW.MOBILE CITIZEN, LLC (PREVIOUSLY OWNED IN PART 58.25% BY ITF, INC. AND DIVESTED IN FISCAL YEAR 2023) IS MADE POSSIBLE BY THE ITF, INC. NONPROFITS' CURRENT SPECTRUM AGREEMENTS AND THE BROADBAND INTERNET ACCOUNTS RECEIVED AS PART OF THOSE AGREEMENTS. AFTER SEVERAL YEARS OF PROVIDING INTERNET SERVICE INDIVIDUALLY, THE ITF, INC. NONPROFITS FORMED MOBILE CITIZEN, LLC TO PROVIDE ADMINISTRATIVE SUPPORT FOR THE DISTRIBUTION OF SOME OR ALL OF ITS OWNERS' BROADBAND ACCOUNTS. MOBILE CITIZEN, LLC SERVES SCHOOLS, NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS AND SOCIAL WELFARE AGENCIES AND HAS FOCUSED MUCH OF ITS EFFORT ON BRIDGING THE DIGITAL DIVIDE.MOBILE CITIZEN OFFERS ONE OF THE LOWEST COST MOBILE BROADBAND RATE PLANS AVAILABLE TO SCHOOLS, NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS AND SOCIAL WELFARE AGENCIES NATIONWIDE, WITH NO DATA CAPS. MOBILE CITIZEN WIRELESS BROADBAND SERVICE COSTS APPROXIMATELY ONE-FIFTH THE AMOUNT OF ITS COMMERCIAL EQUIVALENTS AND IS PROVIDED FREE IN SOME CASES. MOBILE CITIZEN SERVES SCHOOLS AND NONPROFITS THAT PROVIDE SERVICES AS DIVERSE AS WORKFORCE PREPAREDNESS AND FREE COMPUTER TRAINING AND ACCESS PROGRAMS. THE MONEY THESE ORGANIZATIONS SAVE ON THE INTERNET WITH MOBILE CITIZEN ALLOWS THEM TO PUT THOSE DOLLARS TO USE FULFILLING THEIR ORGANIZATION'S MISSION. AS OF JUNE 2022, INSTRUCTIONAL TELECOMMUNICATIONS FOUNDATION WAS DIVESTED FROM MOBILE CITIZEN.ANOTHER BENEFIT OF THE CURRENT SPECTRUM AGREEMENT WITH T-MOBILE IS THE ABILITY, THROUGH CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE AGREEMENT, TO ADD ADDITIONAL SPECTRUM AND THUS HELP MAXIMIZE THE EDUCATIONAL POTENTIAL OF OTHER LICENSES. INDEPENDENT SPECTRUM, LLC (OWNED IN PART 72.7% BY ITF, INC.) WAS FORMED TO DO JUST THAT. INDEPENDENT SPECTRUM ACCOMPLISHED THIS TASK IN ONE OF TWO WAYS: 1) THE DIRECT PURCHASE AND TRANSFER OF AN EBS LICENSE TO AN INDEPENDENT SPECTRUM SUBSIDIARY AND SUBSEQUENT SPECTRUM USE AGREEMENT WITH T-MOBILE; OR 2) A SPECTRUM USE AGREEMENT WITH THE EBS LICENSES AND SUBLICENSE OF SPECTRUM RIGHTS TO T-MOBILE. THROUGHT THE 26 INDEPENDENT SPECTRUM SUBSIDIARIES FORMED TO-DATE, INDEPENDENT SPECTRUM HAS BEEN ABLE TO PASS THROUGH EDUCATIONAL AND FINANCIAL BENEFITS TO 39 EBS LICENSES. THIS "STRENGTH IN NUMBERS" APPROACH ALLOWS EBS LICENSE HOLDERS TO GAIN OPPORTUNITIES THROUGH THEIR SPECTRUM THAT THEY WOULD BE HARD PRESSED TO SECURE DEALING WITH COMMERCIAL OPERATORS ON THEIR OWN.
