                             Amended Financing Plan

     Manager intends to finance the build out of the Service Area Network and to
provide the necessary working capital to operate the business through a
combination of equity, high-yield debt and bank debt.  Manager estimates that it
will raise in the range of $300 Million to $400 Million to fund its ten year
business operations in the Service Area.  Manager currently is funded through
equity contributions and commitments from Weiss Peck & Greer PCS Partners, Inc.
and JAFCO America Ventures. Inc, and Maxicom PCS. L.L.C., bank loans from
Silicon Valley Bank and NationsBank and vendor financing from Lucent
Technologies Inc.

     Manager has filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange
Commission to complete the equity and high yield debt placements and has
obtained a credit facility from Lucent Technologies Inc.  Manager anticipates
financing its operations in the Service Area through the following sources and
in the following net proceeds:

     Equity                            Approximately $80-100 Million
     High Yield Debt                   Approximately $100- 150 Million
     Committed Vendor Facility         Approximately $130-150 Million

These projected funding amounts and the sources are subject to change due to the
financial needs of the Manager and based on conditions in the financial markets.

     Manager agrees to have financing in a sufficient amount to complete each
phase of the Build Out Plan and to provide the necessary working capital to
operate the business by the following time frames.  Such financing is currently
estimated to be committed in the following amounts:

         Time Frame          Financing Amount

         12/31/1998           $ 19.8 Million
