        NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
        --------------------------------------------------------------



1.   GENERAL:
     --------

CompleTel LLC ("Parent," a Delaware limited liability company) (together with
its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the "Company") seeks to be a leading facilities-
based operator of a technologically advanced, high capacity fiber optic
communications infrastructure and provider of telecommunications and Internet-
related services to business and government end-users, carriers and Internet
service providers in targeted metropolitan areas across Western Europe, with an
initial focus on network deployment in France and Germany.  Additionally, the
Company intends to provide Internet access services in France, Germany and the
United Kingdom ("UK").  The Company's deployment plan includes building networks
in ten metropolitan markets in France and seven markets in Germany.

The Company has been principally engaged in developing its business plans,
applying for and procuring regulatory and government authorizations, raising
capital, hiring management and other key personnel, working on the design,
development and construction of its fiber optic networks and operation support
systems, negotiating equipment and facilities agreements, and negotiating
interconnection agreements and certain right-of-way agreements.  As a result of
these activities, the Company has experienced significant operating losses and
negative cash flows from operations.  The Company expects to continue to
generate negative cash flows from operations in each market while it emphasizes
development, construction and expansion of its business and until the Company
establishes a sufficient revenue generating customer base in that market.  The
Company also expects to experience ongoing operating losses and negative cash
flows as it expands its operations in 17 cities in France and Germany currently
included in its business plan and provides Internet-related services in these
cities and the United Kingdom.

The Company is currently implementing its business plan to deploy and operate
metropolitan area networks ("MANs") in 17 cities in France and Germany and
provide Internet-related services in these cities and the United Kingdom. The
Company believes that it has fully funded its current business plan to construct
MANs in these 17 cities and provide the Internet-related services.

2.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
     ----------------------

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting
principles  ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and are in the form
prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Accordingly, they do not
include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete
financial statements. The interim unaudited financial statements should be read
in conjunction with the audited financial statements of the Company as of and
for the year ended December 31, 1999.  In the opinion of management,  all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the
three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative
of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2000.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during
the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  The
Company has adopted a calendar fiscal year.  Certain prior year amounts have
been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

Functional Currency

Prior to January 1, 2000, the functional currency for CompleTel LLC, CableTel
Management, Inc., CompleTel Holdings LLC, CompleTel N.A.N.V., CompleTel Europe
N.V., CompleTel Holding I B.V., CompleTel Holding II B.V. and CompleTel ECC B.V.
was the U.S. dollar and the functional currency for each of CompleTel Europe's
operating subsidiaries was the applicable local currency. Effective January 1,
2000, the Company's publicly-held subsidiary, CompleTel Europe N.V. ("CompleTel
Europe"), CompleTel Holding I B.V., CompleTel Holding II B.V. and CompleTel ECC
B.V. and each of their subsidiaries, except those in the U.K., utilized the euro
as their functional currency.

3.   INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING:
     ------------------------

On March 30, 2000, CompleTel Europe completed its initial public offering
("IPO") of common stock.  In that offering, CompleTel Europe issued 31,280,000
shares of its common stock in exchange for gross proceeds of approximately
$547.4 million.  CompleTel Europe will use the proceeds to (i) further develop
fiber optic networks in its target markets in France and Germany, (ii) fund the
expansion of its Internet-related services, (iii) develop complimentary local
access systems, (iv) fund net operating losses and (v) for general corporate
purposes.

Compensation Charges

CompleTel Europe's IPO caused certain common units of the Company held by
employees of the Company to vest as a result of meeting specified performance
vesting criteria. As a result, the Company recorded compensation expense of
approximately $41.0 million based on the value of those vested common units as
implied by the IPO price received. In addition, based upon the IPO value of the
Company as indicated above, the Company recorded additional compensation expense
and deferred compensation in the quarter ended March 31, 2000, of approximately
$23.2 million and $72.4 million, respectively, for performance vesting units
that did not vest as a result of the IPO but which may vest upon a qualified
sale by Madison Dearborn Partners ("MDP") or in May 2005 based on a deemed
vesting date as defined. The additional deferred compensation will be amortized
to expense over the remaining vesting period to May 18, 2005 (deemed vesting
date if not prior due to a qualified sale by MDP as defined in the executive
securities agreements). The recorded amount of compensation expense and deferred
compensation for these variable awards are adjusted at each reporting date to
reflect management's estimate of the number of such units that will ultimately
vest and the fair market value of those units as of the end of each reporting
period based on the then current market value of the Company's ordinary shares.
Accordingly, as of June 30, 2000, the Company reduced previously recorded
compensation expense and deferred compensation of approximately $ 7.2 million
and $31.1 million, respectively, based on the June 30, 2000 share price of
CompleTel Europe N.V.

The compensation charges (credits) described above are included in non-cash
compensation charges (credits) in the accompanying statement of operations for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2000. Also included in non-cash
compensation charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 is $1.8
million and $3.4 million, respectively, resulting from the recognition of
deferred compensation on fixed stock option awards granted to employees and
other common units of Parent held by employees subject only to time vesting.

5.   LONG-TERM DEBT:
     ---------------

Senior Discount Notes

In February 1999, CompleTel Europe completed an offering of 147,500 units (the
"Units") consisting of $147.5 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of
14% Senior Discount Notes due 2009 (the "Notes") issued by CompleTel Europe and
1,475,000 non-voting Class B Membership Interests of CompleTel Holdings.
CompleTel Europe issued the Notes at a substantial discount from their principal
amount at maturity.  The proceeds of the offering, net of offering fees and
costs, were approximately $72.6 million and were held in an escrow account until
CompleTel Europe received a minimum commitment of $90 million in senior credit
facilities.  To comply with Netherlands laws, the Notes are guaranteed by the
Company on a senior unsecured basis.  As the Company is a holding company with
no operations other than the operations to be conducted by CompleTel Europe and
its subsidiaries, it is unlikely that the Company will have sufficient funds to
satisfy CompleTel Europe's obligations on the Notes if CompleTel Europe is
unable to satisfy its own obligation on the Notes.  Of the $75 million gross
proceeds from the offering, approximately $70.5 million was attributed to the
Notes and approximately $4.5 million was attributed to the 1,475,000 Class B
Membership Interests of CompleTel Holdings.

Cash interest will not accrue on the Notes prior to February 15, 2004, with the
Notes accreting to their stated principal amount at maturity at an effective
interest rate of 15.1%.  The accretion will be charged to interest expense.
Commencing February 15, 2004, interest on the Notes will accrue at 14% per annum
and will be payable in cash on August 15 and February 15 of each year.  The
Notes mature February 16, 2009.

Credit Agreement

In January 2000, CompleTel Europe executed an agreement for a 265 million senior
secured credit facility with Goldman Sachs International and Paribas as co-
arrangers of the facility. The funds were to be available to the Company's
subsidiaries, initially to include CompleTel ECC, CompleTel Services S.A.S.,
CompleTel France and CompleTel Germany, in two tranches including a euro term
facility available until December 31, 2000, in the aggregate amount of (Euro)105
million and a euro revolving loan facility available until December 31, 2002, in
the aggregate amount of (Euro)160 million. The (Euro)160 million tranche was to
become available after May 31, 2000, if the euro term facility was fully drawn,
and other conditions were satisfied. Following December 31, 2002, up to 141

                                       7
<PAGE>

million of the outstanding advances under the euro revolving loan facility will
first be converted into a term loan, and any other outstanding advances will
become part of a 19 million working capital facility.  The facility matures on
December 31, 2006.

In April 2000, CompleTel Europe entered into an agreement (the "Suspension
Agreement") with the lenders under its credit facility which provides that
CompleTel Europe will not borrow funds under its credit facility until the
credit facility is amended and that, in turn, during this period, the lenders
will suspend the application of various provisions, including substantially all
of the representations, covenants and events of default in the credit facility.
During such period, certain other provisions of the credit facility will remain
in effect including, without limitation, the obligation to maintain the security
interests of the lenders and to pay, among other things, commitment fees to the
lenders. The Suspension Agreement will be in effect until the earlier of (a)
January 11, 2001, (b) the date CompleTel Europe cancels its credit facility or
(c) the date an amendment to the credit facility is in effect. In the event that
an amendment to the credit facility cannot be agreed upon by six months, or, if
extended by CompleTel Europe, nine months, after the effective date of the
Suspension Agreement, the Suspension Agreement and credit facility will
terminate. After giving effect to this offering, without this suspension of the
covenants, CompleTel Europe would not be able to borrow under its credit
facility without obtaining a waiver from the lenders. CompleTel Europe intends
to negotiate an amendment to the credit facility prior to the expiration of the
Suspension Agreement which will include modifications to the covenants and
permit CompleTel Europe to borrow under such amended credit facility.

Senior Notes

In April 2000, CompleTel Europe completed an offering of an aggregate (Euro)200
million 14% senior notes due 2010 (the "Senior Notes"). A portion of the
proceeds were used to repurchase $27.0 million ((euro)27.6 million) principal
amount at maturity of the Notes. CompleTel Europe lent approximately (Euro)
$74.4 million of the net proceeds of the Senior Notes offering to a wholly-owned
subsidiary which used the funds to invest in a portfolio of securities which is
pledged as security for the Senior Notes. The proceeds of these pledged
securities will be used to make the first six interest payments on the Senior
Notes. The remaining proceeds from the Senior Notes offering will be used to (i)
fund the further deployment of the Company's networks in existing markets and an
additional six cities in France and Germany, (ii) fund the expansion of the
Company's Internet-related services, (iii) develop complementary local access
systems, (iv) fund net operating losses and (v) for general and corporate
purposes.


Long-term debt consists of the following:

6.   SEGMENT REPORTING:
     ------------------

SFAS 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,"
establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report
information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires
that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments in
interim financial reports issued to shareholders. Operating segments are
components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is
available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in
deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

Introduction

We are a rapidly growing CLEC operating in France and Germany.  We offer
traditional fixed wireline retail business telecommunications services to our
directly connected on-net customers and sell wholesale services to other
carriers.  We also have established an Internet division to offer a full range
of Internet-related services through Internet data centers we are establishing
in France, Germany and the United Kingdom.

Prior to January 1, 2000, the functional currency for CompleTel LLC, CableTel
Management Inc., CompleTel Holdings LLC, CompleTel N.A.N.V., CompleTel Europe
N.V., CompleTel Holding I B.V., CompleTel Holding II B.V. and CompleTel ECC B.V.
was the U.S. Dollar and the functional currency for each of CompleTel Europe's
operating subsidiaries was the applicable local currency. Effective January 1,
2000, the Company's publicly-held subsidiary, CompleTel Europe N.V. ("CompleTel
Europe"), CompleTel Holding I B.V., CompleTel Holding II B.V. and CompleTel ECC
B.V. and each of their subsidiaries, except, those in the U.K., utilized the
euro as their functional currency.

CompleTel LLC currently intends to begin the distribution of CompleTel Europe
N.V. ordinary shares beneficially owned by CompleTel LLC's members, through
optional redemptions of their fully vested units, beginning at the end of the
third quarter 2000, subject to limitations imposed by applicable Dutch law and
Delaware law.  Upon all units becoming fully vested, CompleTel LLC currently
intends to permit the optional redemption of such units and initiate the
liquidation process.

Results of Operations

We have generated operating losses and negative cash flow from our operating
activities to date.  As a result of our operating history, prospective investors
have limited operating and financial data about us upon which to base an
evaluation of our performance.

Revenues

For the quarter ended June 30, 2000, revenues totaled $5.2 million compared to
$0.3 million for the comparable period in 1999.  For the six months ended June
30, 2000 revenues totaled $8.1 million, compared to $0.3 million in the
comparable period in 1999.  Since January 1998, we have developed and refined
our business plans, procured regulatory and governmental authorizations for our
17 markets, raised capital, hired management and other key personnel, designed,
developed and begun installing our fiber optic metropolitan area networks and
operation support systems, obtained senior financing commitments and negotiated
equipment and facilities agreements.

Operating Expenses

Our primary operating expenses consist of network costs, selling, general and
administrative expenses, including start-up costs, and depreciation and
amortization expenses.


                                      12
<PAGE>

Network Costs

Network costs for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000 totaled
$5.3 million and $8.2 million, respectively, compared to $0.4 million and $0.6
million for the comparable periods in 1999.  We expect these costs will increase
as we expand our networks and services.  Our network costs include costs such as
interconnection costs, the cost of leasing high capacity digital lines that
interconnect our network with the networks of other providers, the cost of
leasing local loop lines that connect our customers to our network, and switch
site rent, operating and maintenance costs.  We also lease dark fiber and
conduit to establish and augment our networks in certain markets.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2000, our direct operating margin, which includes
network costs directly associated with our revenues such as interconnect costs,
totaled $2.7 million, or 50 percent. For the prior quarter, direct operating
margin was over 50 percent. For the three and six month period ended June 30,
2000, our gross margin, which includes all network costs, was approximately
break-even.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Our selling, general and administrative expenses include selling and marketing
costs, customer care, billing, corporate administration, salaries and other
personnel costs and legal fees.  For the three and six month periods ended June
30, 2000, selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $19.6 million and
$34.7 million, respectively, compared to $7.6 million and $12.4 million for the
comparable periods in 1999. The $4.0 million increase in the second quarter and
the increase in the comparable 1999 period are due to the rapid growth in
the number of our personnel and associated wages, salaries and related costs.

We are assembling a large, locally based, direct sales force in our local and
regional markets and a national account team to service multiple location
customers and key account executives.  To attract and retain a highly
qualified sales force, we offer our sales and customer-care personnel a highly
competitive compensation package.  The number of employees increased from 206 as
of June 30, 1999 to 564 as of June 30, 2000.  On June 30, 2000, we had a sales
force of 138 (including managers and administrators), compared to 59 on June 30,
1999.  We expect the number of sales and marketing personnel to continue to grow
and our selling, general and administrative costs to increase as we develop and
expand our operations.

We incurred amortization of stock-based compensation expense of approximately
$1.6 million and $1.6 million under our fixed stock option plan for the three
and six month ended June 30, 2000. This amount is based on deferred compensation
at the date of grant totaling approximately $32.0 million.

We incurred additional stock-based compensation expense of approximately $41.0
million upon completion of our IPO due to the resulting vesting of certain
CompleTel LLC performance vesting units held by certain of our employees in
connection with a qualified public offering. This compensation expense is based
on an assumed IPO price of (Euro)17.50 ($17.09) per share. In addition, based
upon our value as indicated in the IPO, we recorded compensation expense and
deferred compensation in the quarter ended March 31, 2000, of approximately
$23.2 million and $72.4 million, respectively, for performance vesting units
that will not vest as a result of the IPO but which may vest upon a qualified
sale by Madison Dearborn Partners or in May 2005 based on a deemed vesting date.
The additional deferred compensation is being amortized to expense over the
remaining vesting period to May 18, 2005 (deemed vesting date if not prior due
to a qualified sale by Madison Dearborn Partners). The recorded amount of
compensation expense and deferred compensation for these variable awards are
adjusted at each reporting date to reflect management's estimate of the number
of such units that will ultimately vest and the fair market value of those units
as of the end of the reporting period based on the then current market value of
ordinary shares. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2000, we reduced previously
recorded compensation expense and deferred compensation by approximately $7.2
million and $31.1 million, respectively, based on the June 30, 2000 share price
of CompleTel Europe N.V.

Depreciation and Amortization

For the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000, we recorded
depreciation and amortization expense of $4.0 million and $7.0 million,
respectively, compared to $0.3 million and $0.4 million for the comparable
periods in 1999. These increases are due to increases in network and non-network
related property and equipment. We started recording network depreciation during
the quarter ended June 30, 1999 when we initiated network services.

Other Income and Expense


                                      13
<PAGE>

We incurred interest expense, net of $2.6 million of capitalized interest, of
$6.4 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2000. Interest expense for the
quarter ended June 30, 1999 totaled $2.9 million. For the six-month periods
ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, interest expense totaled $8.3 million, net of $3.8
million of capitalized interest and $4.2 million, respectively. The interest
expense recorded reflects interest on our senior notes, the accretion of our
senior discount notes and the amortization of deferred financing costs. We
capitalize a portion of our interest costs as part of the construction cost of
our networks, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
34 "Capitalization of Interest Costs" ("SFAS 34").

Interest income totaled $8.8 million and $9.2 million for the three and six
month periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively, compared to $1.0 million and
$1.6 million for the comparable periods in 1999. CompleTel Europe applied for an
exemption from regulations required by the Investment Company Act of 1940. As a
result of the regulation, and until such time that we obtain an exemption, to
remain in compliance with the investment requirements as of June 30, 2000, we
have invested approximately $470.6 million of our initial public offering
proceeds and senior notes proceeds in short-term maturities of U.S. treasury
bills. As a result of this requirement, we have entered into forward currency
contracts for the amount of these investments to minimize our currency exposure.

Foreign Exchange Rates

The revenues, costs, assets and liabilities of CompleTel Europe and its
operating subsidiaries are, for the most part, denominated in euros, which is
their functional currency, effective January 1, 2000. Therefore, they are
exposed to changes in currency exchange rates due to their U.S. dollar
denominated debt and investments. The notes which CompleTel Europe issued in
February 1999 expose us to exchange rate fluctuations as the payment of
principal and interest on the notes will be made in U.S. dollars, and a
substantial portion of our future cash flow used to service these payments will
be denominated in local currencies, including the euro. While we intend to take
steps to minimize exchange rate risks, we cannot assure you that we will not be
materially adversely affected by variations in currency exchange rates.

Net Loss

Our net loss during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000 was
$23.3 million and $121.5 million, respectively, compared to net losses during
the similar periods in 1999 of $10.9 million and $17.8 million, respectively.
The increases were primarily the result of non-cash compensation charges and
substantial start-up costs of the operating subsidiaries.

Adjusted EBITDA

Since the commencement of our operations, we have experienced significant
operating losses and negative Adjusted EBITDA, as set forth below.  We expect to
continue to generate significant operating losses and negative Adjusted EBITDA
in each of our markets as we develop, construct and expand our business, until
we have established a sufficient revenue-generating customer base in each
market.

We expect to experience increasing consolidated operating losses and negative
cash flows from operations as we expand our operations and enter new markets,
even if and after we have achieved positive cash flow from operations in our
initial markets.  The following table summarizes our Adjusted EBITDA calculation
for the periods indicated (amounts in thousands of U.S. Dollars).

</TABLE>

In view of our highly leveraged capital structure, we consider Adjusted EBITDA
to be an important performance measure.  Adjusted EBITDA consists of net
earnings (loss) before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, non-cash
compensation expense, depreciation and amortization and other non-cash charges,
including foreign currency exchange rate gains and losses.  Conceptually,
Adjusted EBITDA measures the amount of income generated each period that could
be used to service debt, because it is independent of the actual leverage
employed by the business; but Adjusted EBITDA ignores funds needed for capital
expenditures, income taxes and expansion.  Some investment analysts track the
relationship of Adjusted EBITDA to total debt as one measure of financial
strength.  However, Adjusted EBITDA does not represent cash provided or used by
operating activities and you should not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or
as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles.

You also should be aware that Adjusted EBITDA may differ significantly from cash
flows from operating activities as reflected in a statement of cash flows
prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.  Cash
from operating activities is net of interest and taxes paid and is a more
comprehensive determination of periodic income on a cash, rather than accrual,
basis and is exclusive of non-cash items of income and expenses such as
depreciation and amortization.  In contrast, Adjusted EBITDA is derived from
accrual basis income and is not adjusted for changes in working capital.
Consequently, Adjusted EBITDA is not affected by the timing of receivable
collections or when accrued expenses are paid.  We are not aware of any uniform
standards for determining Adjusted EBITDA.  Presentations of Adjusted EBITDA may
not be calculated consistently by different companies in the same or similar
businesses.  As a result, our reported Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to
similarly titled measures used by other companies.

</TABLE>

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2000, we used $36.3 million in operating
activities, a $31.0 million increase from the $5.3 million used in operating
activities for the similar period in 1999. This decrease was primarily related
to the substantial organization and start-up costs incurred during the
development of our networks. Our development efforts increased significantly
since the first half of 1999.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

We used approximately $146.7 million of cash in investing activities during the
six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to a use of $29.5 million for the
similar period in 1999. The increase was primarily due to investment of our
initial public offering proceeds during the first quarter of 2000 and the
purchase of approximately $74.4 million of securities that are currently pledged
as security for our senior notes (see Liquidity and Capital Resources below).

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

We had approximately $654.5 million of cash flows from financing activities
during the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to $123.9 million for the
similar period in 1999. The increase was due to the proceeds from our initial
public offering and our senior note offering less approximately $14.2 million
used to repurchase a portion of our existing senior discount notes. Cash flows
from financing activities during the first quarter of 1999 resulted from
proceeds from our senior discount note offering and equity contributions from
our parent.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

The telecommunications business is capital intensive.  We have needed and will
continue to need large amounts of capital to fund capital expenditures, working
capital, debt service, and operating losses.  As of June 30, 2000, we had $602.0
million of cash and short-term investments and net working capital of $546.4
million.

In January 2000, CompleTel Europe executed an agreement for a (Euro)265 million
senior secured credit facility with Goldman Sachs International and Paribas as
co-arrangers of the facility. As of June 30, 2000, we had no borrowings
outstanding under the facility. In April 2000, we entered into a suspension
agreement with the co-arrangers and other parties whereby we agreed not to
borrow funds under the credit facility in exchange for their agreement to
suspend the application of substantially all of the representations, covenants
and events of default. See Note 5 of the Notes to Unaudited Consoldiated
Condensed Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report for a
discussion of the agreement.

In April 2000, CompleTel Europe completed an offering of an aggregate (Euro)200
million 14% senior notes due 2010 (the "Senior Notes"). A portion of the
proceeds from the Senior Notes offering were used to repurchase $27.0 million
(Euro)27.6 million principal amount at maturity of our existing senior discount
notes. CompleTel Europe lent



                                      16
<PAGE>

approximately $74.4 million of the net proceeds to a wholly-owned subsidiary
which used the funds to invest in a portfolio of securities which is pledged as
security for the Senior Notes. The proceeds of these pledged securities will be
used to make the first six interest payments on the Senior Notes. The remaining
proceeds from the Senior Notes offering will be used to (i) fund the further
deployment of our networks in existing markets and an additional six cities in
France and Germany, (ii) fund the expansion of our Internet-related services,
(iii) develop complementary local access systems, (iv) fund net operating losses
and (v) for general and corporate purposes.

Capital Expenditures

During the quarters ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, we made capital expenditures
of $56.6 million and $16.5 million, respectively, for property and equipment
necessary to deploy networks in our initial markets. For the six-month periods
ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, we made capital expenditures totaling $91.7
million and $29.5 million respectively. We also used capital during these
periods to fund our operating losses.

The actual amount and timing of the Company's future capital requirements may
differ materially from the Company's current estimates, and additional financing
may be required in the event of departures from the Company's business plans and
projections, including those caused by unforeseen delays, cost overruns,
engineering design changes, demand for the Company's services that varies from
that expected by the Company, and adverse regulatory, technological or
competitive developments. The Company may also require additional capital (or
require financing sooner than anticipated) if it alters the schedule or targets
of its roll-out plan in response to regulatory, technological or competitive
developments (including additional market developments and new opportunities in
and outside of its target markets). The Company intends to evaluate potential
joint ventures, strategic alliances, and acquisition opportunities on an ongoing
basis as they arise, and the Company may require additional financing if it
elects to pursue any such opportunities. The Company also may be required to
seek additional financing if it elects to provide complementary
telecommunications services or deploy networks in other Western European markets
beyond its target markets. Sources of additional financing may include
commercial bank borrowings, vendor financing and/or the private or public sale
of equity or debt securities.

The Company is currently implementing its business plan to deploy and operate
metropolitan area networks ("MANs") in 17 cities in France and Germany and
provide Internet-related services in these cities and the United Kingdom. The
Company believes that it has fully funded its current business plan to construct
MANs in these 17 cities and provide the Internet-related services.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risks

Investment Portfolio and Interest Rate Sensitivity

Our investment policy is limited by the indentures for our outstanding notes and
our senior secured credit facility. We are restricted to investing in financial
instruments with a maturity of one year or less (with certain limited
exceptions). We are required to utilize investments that meet high credit
quality standards, such as obligations of the U.S. government or any European
Economic Community member government or any agency thereof guaranteed by the
country, certificates of deposits, money market deposits, and commercial paper
with a rating of A-1 or P-1. When and if we terminate the suspension of our
credit facility, we would be required to enter into an interest rate hedging
program with respect to 50% of every tranche of (Euro)50 million borrowed to
mitigate foreign currency exchange rate risk.

Interest income earned on our investment portfolio is affected by changes in
short-term interest rates. We are thus exposed to market risk related to changes
in market interest rates. To date, we have managed these risks by monitoring
market rates and the duration of our investments.

Impact of Foreign Currency Rate Changes

Our operations are not significantly exposed to changes in currency exchange
rates because our revenues, costs, assets and liabilities are, for the most
part, denominated in euros. However, the senior discount notes which we issued
in February 1999 expose us to exchange rate fluctuations as the payment of
principal and interest on the notes will be made in dollars, and a substantial
portion of our future cash flows used to service these payments will be
denominated in euros. In addition, because of the issues surrounding our desire
to not be considered an investment company under the Investment Company Act of
1940, we must invest a substantial portion of our available cash in U.S.
government treasury bills with various short-term maturities. Accordingly, we
have executed certain forward currency contracts in order to hedge our risk
against foreign currency fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the euro.
While we intend to take steps to minimize exchange rate risks, we cannot assure
you that we will not be materially adversely affected by variations in currency
exchange rates.

Our operating subsidiaries' monetary assets and liabilities are subject to
foreign currency exchange risk if purchases of network equipment and services
are denominated in currencies other than the subsidiary's own function currency.
However, the majority of such purchases to date have been based on each
subsidiary's functional currency.

The spot rates for the euro are shown below expressed in dollar per one euro.

             December 31, 1998               $ 1.181/(1)/
             June 30, 1999                   $ 1.033
             December 31, 1999               $ 1.007
             June 30, 2000                   $ 0.951

/(1)/  Based on the exchange rate as of January 4, 1999, the date on which the
       Euro Noon Buying Rate was first quoted.

We intend to manage exchange rate risk by incurring financing liabilities
denominated in the currency of the country of operations. In addition, we intend
to adopt hedging strategies to manage our exposure to foreign currency exchange
rate risk.
