                    UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION


The  unaudited  pro  forma  financial  information  gives  effect  to  (i)  bank
borrowings  incurred by a subsidiary of Cellular  Communications of Puerto Rico,
Inc.  ("CCPR")  -  formerly  known  as  CoreComm  Incorporated,  (ii) a  capital
contribution made by CCPR to CoreComm Limited ("CoreComm) and (iii) the spin-off
of CoreComm from CCPR effected by CCPR's distribution to its shareholders of all
of the common stock of CoreComm (collectively the "Transactions"). The pro forma
financial  information is based on the historical  financial  statements of CCPR
and CoreComm.

The unaudited pro forma condensed  consolidated  statement of operations for the
six months  ended June 30,  1998 and for the year ended  December  31, 1997 give
effect to the  Transactions as if they had been  consummated on January 1, 1997.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 1998
gives effect to the  Transactions  as if they had been  consummated  on June 30,
1998.

The pro forma  adjustments are based upon available  information and assumptions
that management  believes are reasonable at the time made.  Management  believes
that any variations from the available  information and assumptions applied will
not have a material effect on the pro forma financial statements presented.  The
unaudited pro forma condensed  consolidated  financial statements do not purport
to present  the  financial  position  or results of  operations  of CCPR had the
Transactions  occurred  on  the  dates  specified,   nor  are  they  necessarily
indicative  of the  financial  position  or  results of  operations  that may be
achieved in the future.
