Item 8.01 Other Events.

On the date hereof, MCI, Inc. (the “Company”) filed Amendment No. 2 to Form 10-K amending certain disclosures related to its Internal Controls and Procedures. Commencing in the third quarter of 2005, the Company undertook a comprehensive review of its contributions to the Federal Universal Service Fund. As a result of this review, in the fourth quarter of 2005, the Company determined that previously issued consolidated financial statements included an error related to these contributions for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 as well as the first three quarters of 2005. The Company determined that a material weakness existed as of December 31, 2004, and has amended its disclosure in Amendment No. 2 to Form 10-K appropriately. In the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first fiscal quarter of 2005 ended March 31, 2005, the Company restated first quarter 2004 segment data to conform to current year presentation for comparability purposes. This Current Report on Form 8-K is being filed to update the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004 included in the Form 10-K/A to conform the presentation of certain business segment data included in Note 22 with the 2005 presentation. The Company reclassified its segment data to reflect, for comparability purposes, changes to previously reported amounts for the impact of the transfer of certain customers among the business segments effective January 1, 2005. The Company has reflected these changes under its current business segment structure adopted during the second quarter of 2004.
