ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS
The Certificate of Incorporation of Alamosa PCS Holdings, Inc. ("Alamosa")
provides that the liability of the directors of Alamosa to Alamosa or any of its
stockholders for monetary damages arising from acts or omissions occurring in
their capacity as directors shall be limited to the fullest extent permitted by
the laws of Delaware or any other applicable law. This limitation does not apply
with respect to any action in which a director would be liable under Section 174
of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware nor does it apply with
respect to any liability in which a director:
- breached his duty of loyalty to Alamosa or its stockholders;
- did not act in good faith or, in failing to act, did not act in good
faith;
- acted in a manner involving intentional misconduct or a knowing violation
of law or, in failing to act, shall have acted in a manner involving
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; or
- derived an improper personal benefit.
Alamosa's Certificate of Incorporation provides that Alamosa shall
indemnify its directors, officers and employees and former directors, officers
and employees to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of Delaware or any
other applicable law. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 145 of the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, Alamosa has the power to indemnify any
person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding (other than an
action by or in the right of Alamosa) by reason of the fact that he is or was a
director, officer, employee, or agent of Alamosa, against any and all expenses,
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
in connection with such action, suit, or proceeding. The power to indemnify
applies only if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably
believed to be in the best interest, or not opposed to the best interest, of
Alamosa and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable
cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
The power to indemnify applies to actions brought by or in the right of
Alamosa as well, but only to the extent of defense and settlement expenses and
not to any satisfaction of a judgment or settlement of the claim itself and with
the further limitation that in such actions no indemnification shall be made in
the event of any adjudication of negligence or misconduct unless the court, in
its discretion, believes that in light of all the circumstances indemnification
should apply.
II-1
<PAGE> 3
The statute further specifically provides that the indemnification
authorized thereby shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which
any such officer or director may be entitled under any bylaws, agreements, vote
of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise.
Reference is made to the Form of Underwriting Agreement, to be filed as
Exhibit 1.1 to this registration statement, which provides for indemnification
by the Underwriters under certain circumstances of the directors and officers of
Alamosa signing the registration statement and certain controlling persons of
Alamosa against certain liabilities, including those arising under the
Securities Act.
Alamosa has directors' and officers' liability insurance covering its
directors and officers.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling Alamosa pursuant
to the foregoing provisions, Alamosa has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
Alamosa PCS Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Alamosa") was formed
on October 19, 1999. It has no assets and has issued no capital stock.
Immediately prior to the closing of this initial public offering, we will
reorganize as described in the prospectus. In connection with the
reorganization, Alamosa will merge with Alamosa PCS Holdings, Inc., a Texas
corporation ("Texas Holdings"). To effectuate the merger, Alamosa will issue 100
shares of common stock to Texas Holdings. Alamosa will then merge with Texas
Holdings, with Alamosa as the surviving corporation. In the merger, Alamosa will
issue unregistered shares of Alamosa common stock to the stockholders of Texas
Holdings.
Alamosa will also grant stock options to directors, officers, employees and
consultants before the closing of this initial public offering. These are the
only unregistered issuances of securities that Alamosa currently contemplates.
Texas Holdings will be the successor to the current operating company,
Alamosa PCS, LLC, by virtue of a conversion of the LLC to a corporation.
The persons to receive Alamosa common stock in connection with the
reorganization, their owners, the consideration to be received by Alamosa for
such common stock and the number of shares of common stock to be received are
set forth in the tables below.

(1) All percentages of membership interests, except options, are calculated on a
non-fully diluted basis. Percentages for options to purchase membership
interests are calculated on a fully diluted basis.
(2) Includes or consists of shares held in a 401(k) plan.
(3) Represents options to acquire securities, not issued securities.
(4) The consideration for these stock options is an option to purchase a

None of the foregoing transactions will involve any public offering, and
issuances of securities in connection with such transactions will be made
pursuant to valid exemptions under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act"). The
following are the exemptions relied on for each issuance of securities pursuant
to our reorganization.
First, our issuance of 100 shares to Holdings Texas is exempt under Section
4(2) of the Act. This issuance of 100 shares is a transaction involving one
offeree, involving no general solicitation.
Second, our issuance of 48,500,008 shares to the twenty-nine stockholders
of Texas Holdings, pursuant to the merger of Texas Holdings with and into
Alamosa, is exempt under Section 4(2). The merger will take place through direct
communication with the offerees, with no general solicitation or advertising.
Since Alamosa will be a subsidiary of Texas Holdings, these offerees will have a
pre-existing and substantial relationship with us.
II-5
<PAGE> 7
The options to purchase a total of 6,184,500 shares will be granted
pursuant to a written compensatory benefit plan or written compensation contract
to the directors, employees and consultants, and will be exempt pursuant to Rule
701. 48,500,008 shares will be outstanding prior to the grant of these options.
The 6,184,500 shares is under the maximum of 15% of 48,500,008, or 7,275,001
provided in Rule 701(d)(2).
ITEM 16. EXHIBITS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT SCHEDULES
(a) Exhibits:
The exhibits are as set forth in the Exhibit Index.
(b) Financial Statement Schedules:
No financial statement schedules are filed because the required
information is not applicable or is included in the consolidated financial
statements or related notes.
ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:
(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act
of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part
of this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in
a form of prospectus filed by Alamosa pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or
497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this
Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective.
(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of
prospectus shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to
the securities offered therein and the offering of such securities at that
time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of Alamosa
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, Alamosa has been advised
that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and
is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by Alamosa of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of Alamosa 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, Alamosa 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 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the Underwriters
at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement certificates in such
denominations and registered in such names as required by the Underwriters to
permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.

Re: Alamosa PCS Holdings, Inc. Registration Statement on Form S-1
Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to Alamosa PCS Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the "Company"), in connection with the preparation of the Company's
Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-89995) and the
amendments thereto (the Registration Statement, as amended, is hereinafter
referred to as the "Registration Statement") filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"). The Registration Statement relates to the offer and sale by
the Company of up to 12,321,100 shares of its Common Stock, par value $0.01 per
share ("Common Stock"). The opinions expressed herein relate solely to, are
based solely upon and are limited exclusively to, the internal substantive laws
of the State of Texas, the General Corporation Laws of the State of Delaware and
applicable federal laws of the United States of America.
In connection therewith, we have examined and relied upon the original, or
copies certified to our satisfaction, of (i) the Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (the "Certificate of
Incorporation"), and the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company (the
"Bylaws"); (ii) the minutes and records of the corporate proceedings of the
Company with respect to the issuance by the Company of the shares of Common
Stock; (iii) the Registration Statement and all exhibits thereto; (iv) the form
of Underwriting Agreement (herein so called), to be entered into among the
Company and Salomon Smith Barney Inc., Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation
and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., as Underwriters named in the Underwriting
Agreement; (v) such other documents and instruments as we have deemed necessary
for the expression of the opinions contained herein and (vi) the specimen Common
Stock certificate filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the Registration Statement.
In making the foregoing examinations, we have assumed the genuineness of all
signatures and the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals,
and the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as
certified or photostatic copies thereof. As to various questions of fact
material to this opinion, where such facts have not been independently
established, and as to the content and form of certain minutes, records,
resolutions and other documents or writings of the Company, we have relied, to
the extent we have deemed reasonably appropriate, upon representations or
certificates of officers of

the Company or governmental officials. We have assumed that the Underwriting
Agreement will be executed in substantially the same form submitted to us.
Finally, we have assumed that the Company, acting through its transfer agent,
will issue share certificates evidencing the Common Stock in the proper form and
denominations as requested by the underwriters.
Based upon the foregoing, and having due regard for such legal considerations as
we deem relevant, we are of the opinion that the shares of Common Stock, upon
receipt by the Company of the full consideration for the shares of Common Stock
in accordance with the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, will be validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Securities and Exchange
Commission as Exhibit 5.1 to the Registration Statement and any abbreviated
registration statements relating thereto that may be filed to register
additional securities identical to those covered by the Registration Statement
(including a registration statement filed pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the
Securities Act), and to the reference to our firm under the caption "Legal
Matters" in the prospectus constituting a part of such Registration Statement.
In giving such consent, we do not hereby admit that we are in the category of
persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act.
Very truly yours,
/s/ HAYNES AND BOONE, LLP
