ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
Not Applicable.
ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL
Not Applicable.
ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
The Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate") of the Company
provides that a director of the Company will not be personally liable to the
Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as
a director, except, if required by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the
"DGCL") as amended from time to time, for liability (i) for any breach of the
director's duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or
omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing
violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL, which concerns unlawful
payments of dividends, stock purchases or redemptions, or (iv) for any
transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
Neither the amendment nor repeal of such provision will eliminate or reduce the
effect of such provision in respect of any matter occurring, or any cause of
action, suit or claim that, but for such provision, would accrue or arise prior
to such amendment or repeal.
While the Certificate provides directors with protection from awards
for monetary damages for breach of their duty of care, it does not eliminate
such duty. Accordingly, the Certificate will have no effect on the availability
of equitable remedies such as an injunction or rescission based on a director's
breach of his or her duty of care.
The Certificate provides that each person who was or is made a party to
or is threatened to be made a party to
<PAGE> 4
or is involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative (hereinafter a "proceeding"), by reason of the
fact that such person, or a person of whom such person is the legal
representative, is or was a director or officer of the Company or is or was
serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent
of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether
the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a
director, officer, employee or agent or in any other capacity while serving as a
director, officer, employee or agent, will be indemnified and held harmless by
the Company to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL, as the same exists or
may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the
extent that such amendment permits the Company to provide broader
indemnification rights than said law permitted the Company to provide prior to
such amendment), against all expense, liability and loss reasonably incurred or
suffered by such person in connection therewith. Such right to indemnification
includes the right to have the Company pay the expenses incurred in defending
any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition, subject to the
provisions of the DGCL. Such rights are not exclusive of any other right which
any person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the
Certificate, By-laws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors
or otherwise. No repeal or modification of such provision will in any way
diminish or adversely affect the rights of any director, officer, employee or
agent of the Company thereunder in respect of any occurrence or matter arising
prior to any such repeal or modification.
The Certificate also specifically authorizes the Company to maintain
insurance and to grant similar indemnification rights to employees or agents of
the Company. The directors and officers of Lucent are covered by insurance
policies indemnifying against certain liabilities, including certain liabilities
arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act"), which might be
incurred by them in such capacities.

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS
(1) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to file, during any
period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to
this registration statement:
(a) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of
the 1933 Act;
(b) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
after the effective date of this registration statement (or the most
recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth
in this registration statement; and
(c) to include any material information with respect to the
plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this registration
statement or any material change to such information in this
registration statement;
<PAGE> 6
provided, however, that paragraphs 1(a) and 1(b) do not apply if the information
required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is
contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or
Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this
registration statement.
(2) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for the
purpose of determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each such
post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to remove from
registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being
registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes
of determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each filing of the registrant's
annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act
that is incorporated by reference in this registration statement shall be deemed
to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein,
and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof.
(5) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
1933 Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In
the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than
the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director,
officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any
action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling
person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will,
unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act
and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Dear Sirs:
With reference to the registration statement on Form S-8 which Lucent
Technologies Inc. (the "Company") proposes to file with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
registering 1,000,000 common shares, par value $.01 per share, (including an
equal number of Preferred Share Purchase Rights that initially trade with the
common shares) of the Company (the "Shares") which may be offered and sold by
the Company under the Lucent Technologies Inc. 1998 Global Stock Option Plan
(the "Plan"), I am of the opinion that all proper corporate proceedings have
been taken so that any Shares to be offered and sold which are of original
issuance, upon sale and payment therefor in accordance with the Plan and the
resolutions of the Board of Directors relating to the offering and sale of
common shares thereunder, will be legally issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the SEC in connection with
the registration statement referred to above.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Pamela F. Craven
