                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)

1. GENERAL:

        The Company provides wireless communications services in urban markets
in the United States using the Global System for Mobile Communications, or GSM,
technology. On February 25, 2000, we completed the merger with VoiceStream
Corporation ("VoiceStream") and are now a wholly-owned subsidiary of
VoiceStream. VoiceStream also provides wireless communications services in urban
markets in the United States using GSM.


2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

        The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements and the
financial information included herein are unaudited, but reflect all adjustments
which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of
the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods
presented. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. Results of
operations for interim periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative
of results of operations for the entire year.

        Purchase accounting adjustments

        As a result of the VoiceStream merger and the push-down purchase
accounting that resulted, we recorded several non-cash adjustments including the
following (see Note 3 for further discussion of merger):

<TABLE>
<S>                                                   <C>
Contribution of net assets to joint ventures          $   150,000
Working capital adjustment                               (107,000)
Property, plant and equipment adjustment                 (363,000)
Licenses and other intangibles (excluding goodwill)       539,000
Other assets                                              (26,000)
Goodwill                                               (4,129,000)
Common stock                                            2,439,000
Deficit                                                 1,858,000
</TABLE>


        The above adjustments reflect the estimated fair value of assets and
liabilities acquired by VoiceStream as of the date of acquisition. The
adjustment to working capital includes certain reserves recorded for assets
estimated to be uncollectable, estimated inventory obsolescence and estimated
liabilities incurred prior to merger date. Some allocations are based on
valuations which are currently being finalized. Management does not believe that
the final purchase price allocation will produce materially different results
than those reflected above.

        Intangible assets and amortization

        Goodwill consists of the excess of the purchase price over the fair
value of assets in the merger with VoiceStream (see Note 3), and is being
amortized over a useful life of 20 years. Licensing costs are amortized over a
useful life of 40 years.


        Reclassifications

        Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
current presentation.

        Recently issued accounting pronouncements:

        In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." It requires
the recognition of all derivatives as either assets or liabilities and the
measurement of those instruments at fair value. The implementation of SFAS No.
133 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or
results of operations. SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities -- Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133",
issued in August 1999, postpones for one year the mandatory effective date for
adoption of SFAS No. 133 to January 1, 2001.

        In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued
Staff Accounting Bulletin Number 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements." This bulletin will become effective for the issuance of our June
30, 2000, quarterly financial statements. This bulletin establishes more clearly
defined revenue recognition criteria than previously existing accounting
pronouncements, and specifically addresses revenue recognition requirements for
non-refundable fees, such as activation fees collected by a company upon
entering into an arrangement with a customer, such as an arrangement to provide
telecommunication services. We are currently evaluating this bulletin to
determine the impact on our financial position and results of operations.

                                   (Unaudited)

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED:

        In March 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) released
FASB Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions involving Stock
Compensation, an interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25", which provides
clarification of Opinion 25 for certain issues such as the determination of an
employee, the criteria for determining whether a plan qualifies as a
noncompensatory plan and the accounting consequences of various modifications to
the terms of a previously fixed stock option or award. We believe that our
practices are in conformity with this guidance, and therefore Interpretation
No. 44 will have no impact on the Company's financial statements.

Supplemental cash flow disclosure

        Cash paid for interest (net of amounts capitalized) was $81.8 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and $79.8 million for the same period
in 1999.

3. MERGER WITH VOICESTREAM:

        On February 25, 2000, we completed the merger with VoiceStream. The
merger was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Pursuant to
the agreement, 0.825 shares of VoiceStream common stock plus $8.00 in cash was
exchanged for every share of outstanding Omnipoint common stock. There was a
cash or share election option available to shareholders of Omnipoint subject to
proration.

        Under the Designated Entity rules set forth by the FCC, VoiceStream can
not own or operate Omnipoint's C and F Block licenses. As a result, immediately
prior to the Omnipoint merger, the C and F Block licenses, assets and
liabilities associated with these licenses and operations were transferred to
two new joint venture entities controlled by Cook Inlet. Omnipoint accounted for
this transfer of non-monetary assets as an investment at VoiceStream's
historical cost, which equates to the fair value of these assets and liabilities
as the result of the purchase accounting performed for the merger. Each of these
joint venture entities, Cook Inlet/VoiceStream GSM II PCS, LLC ("CIVS II") and
Cook Inlet/VoiceStream GSM III PCS, LLC, ("CIVS III") qualify as a Designated
Entity.

        VoiceStream and the Cook Inlet Partners have entered into reciprocal
technical services agreements which allow each to utilize airtime on the
other's spectrum, and/or utilize wireless system infrastructure, in certain
agreed upon markets. The agreements are structured such that each performs as a
reseller for the other and related fees are charged and paid between the
parties.


                                      -7-

<PAGE>   8

3. MERGER WITH VOICESTREAM - CONTINUED:

        Cook Inlet has contributed a total of $75 million in cash to these joint
venture entities for its 50.1% ownership and exchange rights. Omnipoint
contributed a combination of non-cash assets and liabilities for its 49.9%
ownership. Cook Inlet holds the majority of voting power in each of these joint
venture entities. As part of this transaction, Cook Inlet has certain rights,
but not the obligation, to exchange its joint venture interests into a total of
3,750,000 shares of VoiceStream common stock for a 30 day period beginning after
the FCC regulatory holding period has expired (currently five years after the
issuance date of the licenses held by Cook Inlet/VoiceStream GSM II and III).
For CIVS II, this date is in the second quarter of 2002,
and for CIVS III in the fourth quarter of 2004. These
rights are conditioned upon the FCC's Designated Entity rules and VoiceStream's
legal ability to own the C and F Block licenses at the time of the exchange
under such rules.

        As mentioned above, each of the joint venture agreements included rights
whereby Cook Inlet has the ability to exchange its investment in the joint
ventures for a fixed number of VoiceStream shares. The fair value of the
exchange rights of $28.0 million has been recorded as an increase to investment
in and advances to unconsolidated affiliates and additional paid in capital as
of March 31, 2000. The fair value is being amortized over the life of these
exchange rights.

        Unaudited pro forma operating results, assuming the merger with
VoiceStream occurred on January 1 of the respective years:

                              OMNIPOINT CORPORATION
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)

        5. LONG-TERM DEBT - CONTINUED:

        On February 25, 2000, immediately following the completion of the
VoiceStream merger, VoiceStream entered into a new credit facility with a
consortium of lenders. Pursuant to the new credit facility, the lenders have
made available revolving credit loans and term loans in an aggregate principal
amount not to exceed $3.25 billion. The revolving credit portion of the new
credit facility is a $1.35 billion reducing revolving credit. Under the terms of
the new credit facility, a subsidiary of Omnipoint is designated as a borrower
subject to the same terms and conditions as VoiceStream. Immediately following
the completion of the VoiceStream merger, proceeds of draws on the
new credit facility were used to repay certain long-term debt of Omnipoint.

        The availability of the revolving credit portion of the new credit
facility declines over the period commencing three years after the closing date
through the eighth anniversary of the closing date in the following percentages:
10% in year four, 15% in year five, 20% in year six, 20% in year seven and 35%
in year eight. The term loan portions of the new credit facility is comprised of
a $900 million Tranche A and a $1 billion Tranche B. Tranche A is required to be
amortized at the same rate that the availability under the revolving credit
portion of the anticipated new credit facility reduces with a final maturity on
the eighth anniversary of the closing date. Tranche B is required to be
amortized in the following amounts during the period commencing three years
after the closing date through the ninth anniversary: $10 million in each of
years four through eight and the remaining balance in year nine.

        Borrowings under Tranche A bear interest, at VoiceStream's option, at
an annual rate of interest equal to either (1) the greater of (a) the prime
rate, or (b) the Federal Funds rate plus 1/2%, or (2) a Eurodollar rate, in each
instance plus an applicable margin. Such applicable margin will range to a
maximum of 1.50%, in the case of loans based on the prime rate or Federal Funds
rate, and to a maximum of 2.75%, in the case of loans based on a Eurodollar
rate, in each case based upon certain factors including the ratio of total
indebtedness to operating cash flow, as defined in the new credit facility, of
VoiceStream.

        Tranche B bears interest, at VoiceStream's option, at an annual rate of
interest equal to either (1) the greater of (a) the prime rate, or (b) the
Federal Funds rate plus 1/2%, or (2) a Eurodollar rate, plus an applicable
margin. Such applicable margin is a fixed percentage of 1.75%, in the case of
loans based on the prime rate or Federal Funds rate, and 3.0% in the case of
loans based on a Eurodollar rate.

        The new credit facility contains affirmative and negative covenants,
with which VoiceStream and Omnipoint must comply, including financial covenants,
and provides for various events of default. The repayment of the loans is
secured by, among other things, the grant of a security interest in the capital
stock and assets of Omnipoint and certain of its subsidiaries.

        The new credit facility permits up to $1.5 billion of additional
indebtedness, including up to $1 billion for a vendor facility, which would
become part of the new credit facility, by amendment, subject to the same
covenants and secured by the same collateral. On April 28, 2000, VoiceStream
entered into a vendor facility with an infrastructure equipment vendor and a
bank that provides up to $1 billion in senior credit facilities and VoiceStream
has agreed to acquire certain equipment, software and services from the vendor.
The vendor facility has a maturity of 9.25 years and is available in multiple
draws, including $500 million that was drawn on April 28, 2000, $250 million
that can be drawn by July 14, 2000, and $250 million that can be drawn by
October 31, 2000. Net proceeds of the vendor facilities will be used for the
same purposes as other proceeds under the new credit facility.

        Certain long-term debt agreements of Omnipoint contain provisions which
required Omnipoint to offer repayment of outstanding amounts when a change of
control occurs. The VoiceStream merger constituted a change of control.
Additionally, the holders of the debt issued under certain of these agreements
were entitled to a prepayment premium. In accordance with the provisions of such
long-term debt, Omnipoint offered to purchase, at 101% of the principal amount,
the 11.625% Senior Notes due 2006 and the 11.625% Series A Notes due 2006 of
Omnipoint. The offer to purchase expired on April 29, 2000. Notes representing
$343,000 million of the combined principal amount were redeemed by note holders.

   In July 1997, and subsequently amended in June 1999 and thereafter, Omnipoint
through its wholly-owned subsidiary OPCS Philadelphia Holdings LLC (Philadelphia
Holdings) entered into a credit facility agreement with Ericsson to provide
financing to Philadelphia Holdings for up to $150 million for the purpose of
financing the build out of networks in the Philadelphia and Dover markets. On
May 4, 2000 CIVS II through Philadelphia Operating Company (Philadelphia
Operating), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Philadelphia Holdings, entered into a
$350 million refinance agreement with Ericsson (New Ericsson Credit Facility)
for the purpose of financing the continued build out of networks and the
operations of the Philadelphia, Atlantic City and Dover markets. Under the terms
of the New Ericsson Credit Facility, Philadelphia Operating is subject to
certain financial and operational covenants, including restrictions on levels of
indebtedness, minimum annualized revenues and cash flows and certain other
financial maintenance requirements. Additionally, the New Ericsson Credit
Facility provides that, among other events, failure to pay amounts due to the
FCC shall constitute an event of default. The New Ericsson Credit Facility is
collateralized by substantially all of the assets of Philadelphia Operating and
its license subsidiaries, including a pledge of all capital stock of each
license subsidiary.

   The New Ericsson Credit Facility consists of a revolving credit facility of
up to $150 million and a $200 million term loan. The term loan was drawn at
closing. A portion of the term loan draw was used to repay the Philadelphia
Holdings credit facility. Under the terms of the agreement, the lender may elect
to subordinate the revolving portion of the facility to the term loan. The
principal amount of the New Ericsson Credit Facility is payable in quarterly
installments beginning in 2004, with a final payment for the revolving portion
of the facility due on March 31, 2008 and the final payment for the term loan
due on March 31, 2009. Interest on the outstanding principal is generally
payable quarterly in arrears with regard to base rate loans and at the end of
the applicable interest period with regard to LIBOR loans (of which a portion of
the loan proceeds are available to finance such interest payments). Interest on
the New Ericsson Credit Facility is payable at varying interest rates at a base
rate or LIBOR plus, in each case, a set margin and commitment fee based on
Philadelphia Operating's revolver utilization rate. The Ericsson Credit Facility
may be repaid in whole or in part in minimum amounts of $2 million without a
premium.

        The aggregate amounts of principal maturities of Omnipoint's long-term
debt at March 31, 2000, are as follows (dollars in thousands):

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF THE "SAFE HARBOR" PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE
LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995.

Statements contained or incorporated by reference herein that are not based on
historical fact, including without limitation, statements containing the words
"believes," "may," "will," "estimate," "continue," "anticipates," "intends,"
"expects" and words of similar import, constitute "forward-looking statements"
within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such
forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and
other factors that may cause the actual results, events or developments to be
materially different from any future results, events or developments expressed
or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among
others, the following: general economic and business conditions, both nationally
and in the regions in which Omnipoint Corporation ("Omnipoint") operates;
technology changes; competition; changes in business strategy or development
plans; the high leverage of Omnipoint; the ability to attract and retain
qualified personnel; existing governmental regulations and changes in, or the
failure to comply with, governmental regulations; liability and other claims
asserted against Omnipoint; and other factors referenced in Omnipoint's filings
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. GIVEN THESE UNCERTAINTIES, READERS
ARE CAUTIONED NOT TO PLACE UNDUE RELIANCE ON SUCH FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS.
Omnipoint disclaims any obligation to update any such factors or to publicly
announce the result of any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements
contained herein to reflect future results, events or developments.

The following is a discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial
condition and results of operations of Omnipoint and should be read in
conjunction with Omnipoint's consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
and other financial information included herein and in Omnipoint's Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1999. Due to the phase of the business cycle of
Omnipoint's personal communications services ("PCS") operations, Omnipoint's
operating results for prior periods may not be indicative of future
performance.

OVERVIEW

        Omnipoint is a leading provider of personal communications services and
developer of PCS technology. We employ GSM (Global System for Mobile
Communications) technology, which is the most widely used wireless technology in
the world. We currently operate in New York, Mid Atlantic, New England, south
Florida and the Midwest.

        In June 1999, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization
with VoiceStream. Pursuant to this agreement, at the effective time of the
merger, each outstanding share of Omnipoint common stock was exchanged
for the right to receive 0.825 shares of VoiceStream Common Stock plus $8.00 in
cash. The merger was unanimously approved by our board of directors and
was approved by our stockholders at a special meeting of stockholders on
February 24, 2000. On February 25, 2000, we became a wholly-owned subsidiary of
VoiceStream.

        In addition to the merger with VoiceStream, we continued to explore
avenues for growth through acquisitions and investments during 1999, which
resulted in the merger with East/West Communications, Inc. This acquisition
provides five 10 MHz PCS licenses of which two are in the major markets of Los
Angeles and Washington, DC. This acquisition was concluded immediately prior to
the merger with VoiceStream.

        In connection with the VoiceStream merger and use of the purchase method
to account for the merger, the assets, liabilities and shareholders' equity of
Omnipoint have been adjusted, where necessary, to reflect the fair market value
of such assets and liabilities and the VoiceStream common stock and other
consideration in the merger. As a result, our balance sheets, results of
operations and statements of cash flows are not comparable for periods before
and after the merger. Therefore, the results of operations and statement of cash
flows for the three months ended March 31, 2000, are presented as two distinct
periods in the accompanying statements, the period from January 1, 2000 to
February 24, 2000, prior to the merger and the period from February 25, 2000, to
March 31, 2000, following the merger. In the following discussion and analysis,
references to results and activities for the quarter ended March 31, 2000,
combine the two periods and explanations have been provided where the
merger-related accounting changes have materially affected the comparability of
the periods.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

        Under the Designated Entity rules set forth by the FCC, VoiceStream can
not own or operate C and F Block licenses. As a result, immediately prior to the
Omnipoint merger, the C and F Block licenses, assets and liabilities associated
with these licenses and operations were transferred to two new joint venture
entities controlled by Cook Inlet. We have accounted for this transfer of
non-monetary assets as an investment at VoiceStream's historical cost, which
equates to the fair value of these assets and liabilities as the result of the
purchase accounting performed for the merger. Each of these joint venture
entities, Cook Inlet/VoiceStream GSM II PCS, LLC ("CIVS II) and Cook
Inlet/VoiceStream GSM III PCS ("CIVS III"), LLC, qualify as a Designated Entity.



                                      -10-

        We had approximately 800,200 customers as of March 31, 2000, 272,800
monthly subscribers and 527,400 prepaid customers.

Revenues:

        Subscriber, prepaid and roamer revenues for the three months ended March
31, 2000 were $146.2 million, as compared to revenues of $54.8 million for March
31, 1999, an increase of $91.4 million, or 167%. This increase is the result of
the increase in our customer base.

        Equipment revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2000 were $19.0
million, as compared to revenues of $12.8 million for March 31, 1999, an
increase of $6.2 million, or 48%. This increase is the result of the increased
handset sales.

Operating expenses:

        Total cost of service for the quarter ended March 31, 2000, was $43.2
million, as compared to $35.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1999, an
increase of $7.5 million, or 21%. This increase is the result of the additional
costs associated with supporting a larger customer base.

        Cost of handset and accessories revenues for the quarter ended March 31,
2000 were $47.9 million, as compared to $39.1 million for the quarter ended
March 31, 1999, an increase of $8.8 million, or 23%. This increase is the result
of increased handset sales.

        Sales and marketing costs for the first quarter of 2000 were $52.7
million, as compared to $36.3 million for the first quarter of 1999, an increase
of $16.4 million, or 45%. The increase is due to the increase in net customer
adds.

        General and administrative costs for the first quarter of 2000 were
$70.4 million, as compared to $30.3 million for the first quarter of 1999, an
increase of $40.1 million, or 133%. The increase is due to a combination of one
time charges related to the merger with VoiceStream and increased costs
associated with supporting a larger customer base.

        Depreciation and amortization expenses for the first quarter of 2000
were $65.6 million, as compared to $45.9 million for the first quarter of 1999,
an increase of approximately $ 19.7 million, or 43%. This increase is largely
due to the increase in intangibles including goodwill due to the purchase price
allocation associated with the VoiceStream merger.


Other Expenses and Income:

        Interest expense for the first quarter of 2000 was $81.3 million, as
compared to $61.6 million for the first quarter of 1999, an increase of $19.7
million, or 32%. This increase is due to the increase in long-term debt.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

        Cash used in operating activities resulted from the Company's operations
and expenses related to its core PCS networks and interest expense on its
various borrowings. The Company incurred increased network operating costs due
to the growth in the number of subscribers and the related network usage.

        Cash used in investing activities related primarily to the purchase of
fixed assets of $57.4 million and expand our wireless network.

        The cash provided from financing activities consists primarily of net
proceeds of $96.5 million related to borrowings under the new credit facility,
the repayment of certain long-term debt and the costs associated with obtaining
the new credit facility.


                                      -11-

<PAGE>   12

        As a result of the merger, we are now a wholly-owned subsidiary of
VoiceStream. We are, in part, dependant on VoiceStream for future funding for
operations, capital activity and debt service. We believe that we will require
substantial amounts of additional capital over the next several years and
anticipate that much of this capital will be contributed or loaned by our
parent, VoiceStream, or obtained from other financing arrangements. A subsidiary
of Omnipoint is a co-borrower under VoiceStream's new credit facility, which
will provide a source of debt financing. There can be no assurance, however,
that we will obtain additional funding to fund our operations
and capital expenditures. To the extent that the build-out of the networks is
faster than expected, the costs are greater than anticipated, or we take
advantage of other opportunities, including those that may arise through current
and future FCC actions, we may require additional funding to implement our
business strategy.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     There are no material, pending legal proceedings to which Omnipoint or any
