CONDENSED NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. THE COMPANY
Pathnet, Inc. (Pathnet), is a wholesale telecommunications provider has
built a network designed to provide other wholesale and retail
telecommunications service providers with access to underserved and second and
third tier markets throughout the United States.
Pathnet Telecommunications, Inc. (Pathnet Telecommunications) was
formed on November 1, 1999, by the former shareholders of Pathnet in order to
facilitate the reorganization transaction, which became effective on March 30,
2000 (see Note 14), and to continue the activity of Pathnet. Upon finalization
of the reorganization transaction, Pathnet became a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Pathnet Telecommunications. Hereafter, Pathnet Telecommunications, Pathnet
Operating Inc. and Pathnet together with their subsidiaries are referred to as
the Company.
The Company's telecommunications network will enable its customers
including existing local telephone companies, long distance companies, internet
service providers, competitive telecommunications companies, cellular operators
and other telecommunications providers to offer additional services to new and
existing customers in the markets the Company serves without having to expend
their own resources to build, expand or upgrade their own networks.
As of September 30, 2000, the Company's network consisted of over 6,300
wireless route miles providing wholesale transport services and 1,400 miles of
installed fiber, with collocations in 73 cities. The Company is constructing an
additional 600 route miles of network under construction, which is scheduled for
completion in the second quarter of 2001. During 2000, the Company intends to
deploy additional products and services including bundled wholesale transport
and local access services.
In March 2000, the Company entered into an agreement with a third party
to swap multiple fibers along a 395 mile segment between Des Moines, Iowa and
Chicago, Illinois, in return for multiple fibers along a 1,302 mile segment from
Charlotte, North Carolina, through Savannah, Georgia, Jacksonville, Miami, and
Orlando, Florida. The Company anticipates that it will begin lighting that part
of its network during the first quarter of 2001. The Company anticipates
entering into such agreements in the future to accelerate the availability of
its national network.
The Company's business is funded primarily through preferred and common
stock investments by the Company's stockholders and by proceeds from Pathnet's
$350.0 million aggregate principal amount of units consisting of 12 1/4% Senior
Notes due 2008 (Senior Notes), which have been registered under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (Securities Act), and warrants to purchase Common Stock
issued by Pathnet on April 8, 1998 (Debt Offering).
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Pathnet was formed to build a nationwide network designed to provide
other wholesale and retail telecommunications service providers with access to
underserved and second and third tier markets throughout the United States.
Pathnet Telecommunications was formed to continue the activity of Pathnet with
strategic investments from Colonial Pipeline Company, Burlington Northern and
Santa Fe Corporation and CSX Corporation received in connection with the
reorganization transaction. Since inception, Pathnet and Pathnet
Telecommunications' activities have consisted principally of constructing and
7
<PAGE>
deploying digital networks utilizing both wireless and fiber-optic technologies.
Pathnet and Pathnet Telecommunications were considered companies under common
control. Consequently, for purposes of the accompanying consolidated financial
statements, Pathnet has been treated as a "predecessor" entity. Therefore, the
consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 1999, the three months
ended September 30, 1999 and nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999
include the historical financial information of Pathnet, the predecessor entity.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements incorporate the combined
business activities of Pathnet and Pathnet Telecommunications.
The Company recently commenced providing telecommunications services to
customers and recognizing the revenue from the sale of such telecommunication
services. The Company's principal activities to date have consisted of securing
contractual alliances with its co-development partners, designing and
constructing network path segments, obtaining capital and planning its proposed
service.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements of the Company contain all adjustments (consisting only of
normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the Company's
consolidated financial position, and the results of operations and cash flows
for the periods indicated. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto for Pathnet, Inc. included in the
Company's Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission and declared effective on March 14, 2000. The results of
operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000, are not
necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full
year.
3. CONSOLIDATION
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Pathnet
Telecommunications and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Pathnet, Pathnet
Operating, Inc. and Pathnet/Idaho Power License, LLC (a wholly owned subsidiary
of Pathnet). All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.
4. RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission released staff
accounting bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements," (SAB
101) which clarifies the Securities and Exchange Commission's view on revenue
recognition. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SAB 101 on the
Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
5. RECLASSIFICATION
Certain amounts in the financial statements and notes thereto have been
reclassified to conform to the September 30, 2000 classifications.

6. NON CASH STOCK COMPENSATION
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, the
Company incurred non-cash stock compensation of:

</TABLE>
7. LOSS PER SHARE
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the applicable
period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted
average common and potentially dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding
during the applicable period. For each of the periods presented, basic and
diluted loss per share are the same. The exercise of 3,312 ,586 employee common
stock options, the exercise of warrants to purchase 1,116,500 shares of common
stock, and the conversion of 27,243,868 shares of Series A, B, C, D and E
convertible preferred stock into shares of common stock as of September 30,
2000, which could potentially dilute basic loss per share in the future, were
not included in the computation of diluted loss per share for the periods
presented because to do so would have been antidilutive in each case.
8. SEGMENT REPORTING
The Company identifies its segments based on management responsibility.
The Company measures segment loss as net operating loss. The service revenue
from the telecommunications division includes all revenues generated from the
sale of telecommunications products, including high capacity, digital transport
and competitive local access services. The construction division includes the
operating activity and the assets relating to the network build out. The
revenues for the construction division primarily relate to the management of
construction projects and the sale of dark fiber through indefeasible rights of
use agreements ("IRUs"). Other includes certain of the Company's general and
administrative functions and operating expenses. All of the Company's revenue
are attributable to customers in the United States, and all of its assets are
located in the United States.

The majority of revenues for the three and nine months ended September
30, 2000, are comprised of construction services, approximately 92.1% and 89.3%,
respectively, arising mainly from its co-development agreements with CapRock
Communications (Caprock) (31.5%) and Tri-State Generation and Transmission
Association, Inc. (Tri-State) (57.8%). The remainder of the Company's revenues
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000, approximately 7.9% and
10.7%, respectively, has been derived from the sale of bandwidth along the
Company's digital network, including approximately $1.5 million from one
customer. The Company has experienced significant operating and net losses and
negative operating cash flow to date and expects to continue to experience
operating and net losses and negative operating cash flow until such time as it
is able to generate revenue sufficient to cover its operating expenses.
9. AVAILABLE FOR SALE MARKETABLE SECURITIES
Certain of the Company's marketable securities were considered
"available for sale," and, as such, are stated at market value. The net
unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities are reported as part of
accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains or losses from the
sale of marketable securities are based on the specific identification method.
The following is a summary of the investments in marketable securities
at September 30, 2000:

Network in progress includes (i) all direct material and labor costs
together with related allocable interest costs, necessary to construct
components of a high capacity digital wireless and fiber optic network, and (ii)
network related inventory parts and equipment. The network in progress balance
as September 30, 2000 includes approximately $74.4 million for costs incurred to
11
<PAGE>
construct digital fiber optic networks and $2.8 million for a right of use under
an agreement with Northern Border Pipeline Company for microwave access. When a
portion of the network has been completed and made available for its intended
use by the Company, the accumulated costs are transferred from network in
progress to communications network and depreciated.
11. DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS
The Company incurred approximately $11.3 million related to the Debt
Offering and approximately $6.6 million related to the amendment to the Senior
Notes in connection with the reorganization transaction. During the third
quarter of 2000, the Company incurred financing costs of approximately $3.3
million related to obtaining debt-financing arrangements with vendors (see note
16). Such costs are amortized over the term of the debt or financing
arrangement.
12. RESTRICTED CASH
Restricted cash comprises amounts held in escrow to collateralize the
Company's obligations under certain of its development agreements. The funds in
each escrow account are available only to fund the projects to which the escrow
is related. Generally, funds are released from escrow to pay project costs as
incurred. During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Company deposited
approximately $11.4 million in escrow and invested approximately $1.1 million in
restricted marketable securities and approximately $16.8 million was released
from escrow.
13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
As of September 30, 2000, the Company had capital commitments of up to
approximately $39.4 million relating to telecommunication and transmission
equipment and its agreement with its co-development partners.
On April 19, 2000, the Company was sued by several plaintiffs purporting
to represent a class of landowners damaged by the Company in connection with the
development of the Company's fiber optic network. Specifically, the complaint
alleges the Company installed or will install fiber optic facilities on the
property of the landowners in the class without obtaining the necessary legal
consents from the landowners. On July 18, 2000, plaintiffs significantly
narrowed the purported class to include only landowners on a particular segment
of the Company's network. Based on the information currently available, the
Company remains unaware of any factual basis supporting plaintiff's claims. In
any event, the Company believes that its co-development partner on this segment
of the Company's network would be required to indemnify the Company for all or a
portion of any loss arising from plaintiffs' claims. Based upon the Company's
current understanding of the alleged factual basis of plaintiffs' claims, the
Company does not believe that the plaintiffs' claims will have a material
adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows or financial position of
the Company and believes that the likelihood of a material loss is remote.
On May 17, 2000, MagTen Partners, L.P. (Magten), one of the Company's
bondholders, filed suit against the Company and the investors involved in the
Company's reorganization (see note 14). On July 14, 2000, the Company served the
12
<PAGE>
plaintiffs with its response, a motion to dismiss, which is still pending before
the court. Magten filed a response to Pathnet's motion to dismiss on September
14, 2000 and the Company file a reply to Magten's response on October 13, 2000.
Magten's claims stem from their contention that the Company was not permitted to
consummate the reorganization without unanimous consent of the holders of the
Senior Notes, and that the Company's failure to obtain Magten's consent
triggered a provision in the Indenture governing the Senior Notes (the
"Indenture"), requiring the Company to repurchase the Senior Notes at 101% of
their face value. The Company does not agree with MagTen's interpretation of the
Indenture and intends to defend the claim vigorously. Accordingly, based upon
the Company's current understanding of the factual basis for plaintiff's claims
and the likelihood of success, it does not believe that plaintiff's claims will
have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows or
financial position of the Company and believes that the likelihood of a material
loss is remote.
14. REORGANIZATION
On March 30, 2000, the Company completed a strategic investment
transaction with Colonial Pipeline Company, The Burlington Northern and Santa Fe
Corporation and CSX Corporation. As part of the transaction, the Company
received a contribution of over 12,000 miles of rights of way with an estimated
value of approximately $187.0 million. Generally, the Company does not begin
amortizing rights of way used in its network until the network is completed and
available for use.
In return for the rights of way, the Company issued 8,511,607 shares of
the Company's Series D convertible preferred stock. In addition to providing a
portion of the rights of way access, Colonial Pipeline paid $43.0 million in
cash to the Company, comprised of $38.0 million at the initial closing for
1,729,631 shares of the Company's Series E redeemable preferred stock, $1.0
million for the issuance of an option to purchase 1,593,082 shares of the
Company's Series E redeemable preferred stock for $21.97 per share in connection
with an initial public offering and $4.0 million for rights in 2,200 conduit
miles of our future network. Colonial Pipeline paid an additional $25.0 million
for 1,137,915 shares of the Company's Series E redeemable preferred stock upon
the completion of a fiber-optic network segment that the Company completed
during the third quarter of 2000. The option to purchase 1,593,082 shares of the
Company's Series E preferred stock expired in July 2000. The new investors
collectively received an approximate one-third equity stake in the Company, as
well as representation on the Company's Board of Directors.
Upon the closing of the transaction, all of the Pathnet's common stock
was exchanged for common stock of Pathnet Telecommunications resulting in
Pathnet becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pathnet Telecommunications and all
of the Pathnet's 5,470,595 shares of mandatorily redeemable preferred stock
being converted into 15,864,715 of Pathnet Telecommunications convertible
preferred stock.
The Company obtained consents to the waiver and the amendment of
certain provisions of the indenture from the holders of a majority of Pathnet's
Senior Notes. In return for such consents, (i) Pathnet made consent fee payments
to consenting noteholders of approximately $6.6 million in the aggregate and
purchased and pledged to the trustee under the indenture for the benefit of the
noteholders, additional U.S. Treasury Securities as security covering the
October 16, 2000 interest payment on the Senior Notes and (ii) Pathnet
13
<PAGE>
Telecommunications issued its senior guarantees of the Senior Notes. The $6.6
million consent payment to the bondholders increased deferred financing costs
and is being amortized over the remaining term of the Senior Notes. In addition,
for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Company had expensed
approximately $1.8 million of reorganization expenses related to fees for
printing, legal, solicitation and other transaction fees.
15. NONMONETARY TRANSACTIONS
In March 2000, the Company entered into an agreement with a third party
to swap multiple fibers along a 395 mile segment between Des Moines, Iowa and
Chicago, Illinois, in return for multiple fibers along a 1,302 mile segment from
Charlotte, North Carolina, through Savannah, Georgia, Jacksonville, Miami, and
Orlando, Florida. The Company anticipates completing the swap in the fourth
quarter of 2000. This transaction will be treated as an exchange of similar
productive assets.
16. VENDOR FINANCING
On August 10, 2000, the Company announced the signing of a
multi-million dollar credit facility with Nortel Networks. The credit facility
consists of $210.0 million over six years to be used for the purchase of goods
and services from Nortel Networks. The Company intends to use the credit
facility to fund its continued fiber optic network build-out. As of September
30, 2000, $12.8 million was outstanding under the credit facility.
On September 8, 2000, the Company signed a multi-million dollar credit
facility with Cisco Systems Capital Corporation. The credit facility consists of
$50.0 million over six years to be used for the purchase of goods and services
from Cisco Systemsand for other expenses related to our network construction.
The Company intends to use the credit facility to fund its continued network
build-out. As of September 30, 2000, $0 was outstanding under the credit
facility.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
CERTAIN STATEMENTS CONTAINED IN THIS ITEM CONSTITUTE FORWARD-LOOKING
STATEMENTS. SEE. "FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS" BELOW. IN THIS REPORT, WE REFER TO
PATHNET TELECOMMUNICATIONS, INC., AS THE "COMPANY," "WE," "US," AND "OUR." WHERE
APPLICABLE, SUCH REFERENCES REFER TO PATHNET, INC.,OR "PATHNET", THE PREDECESSOR
REPORTING COMPANY PRIOR TO THE REORGANIZATION TRANSACTION COMPLETED ON MARCH 30,
2000.
OVERVIEW
We were formed on November 1, 1999 in order to facilitate a reorganization
transaction with Pathnet, Inc. which is now our wholly owned subsidiary. Our
reorganization was completed on March 30, 2000. Together with Pathnet, we are a
wholesale telecommunications provider building a nationwide network designed to
provide other wholesale and retail telecommunications service providers with
access to underserved and second and third tier markets throughout the United
States.
Our network will enable our customers, including existing local telephone
companies, long distance companies, internet service providers, competitive
telecommunications companies, cellular operators and other telecommunications
providers, to offer additional services to new and existing customers in these
markets without having to expend their own resources to build, expand or upgrade
their own networks.
Since Pathnet's inception in November 1995, our business has focused on:
o Entering into strategic relationships with owners of
telecommunications assets and co-development partners;
o Developing and constructing our digital backbone network;
o Negotiating collocation and interconnection agreements and installing
collocations and interconnections off of our backbone network;
o Designing and developing our network architecture and operations
support systems, including the buildout and launch of our 24-hour
network operations center;
o Raising capital and hiring management and other key personnel;
o Developing "leading edge" products and services; and
o Procuring governmental authorizations.
On March 30, 2000, we completed a strategic investment transaction with
Colonial Pipeline Company, The Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Corporation and
CSX Transportation, Inc. We received the right to develop over 12,000 miles of
these investors' rights of way holdings, 8,000 of which have some form of
exclusivity. In addition to providing a portion of the rights of way access,
Colonial also made a contribution of $43.0 million in cash (consisting of $38.0
million as a first tranche cash investment, $1.0 million for options to purchase
additional shares of our stock and $4.0 million for rights in a single fiber
optic conduit) and agreed to make a second cash investment of $25.0 million in
our business upon the completion of our Chicago to Aurora (a suburb of Denver)
15
<PAGE>
fiber optic network build. On August 10, 2000, the Company received this
investment. Our new investors hold approximately one-third of our equity and
have representation on our Board of Directors.
In March 2000, we entered into an agreement with a third party to swap
multiple fibers along a 395 mile segment between Des Moines, Iowa and Chicago,
Illinois, in return for multiple fibers along a 1,302 mile segment from
Charlotte, North Carolina, through Savannah, Georgia, Jacksonville, Miami, and
Orlando, Florida. We anticipate beginning to light that portion of our network
in the first quarter of 2001.
As of September 30, 2000, our network consisted of over 6,300 wireless
route miles providing wholesale transport services and 1,400 miles of installed
fiber, with collocations in 73 cities. We are constructing an additional 600
route miles of network under construction, which is scheduled for completion in
the second quarter of 2001. During 2000, we intend to deploy additional products
and services including bundled wholesale transport and local access services.
In September, we announced the first implementation of our VPOP (Virtual
Point of Presence) Plus Service, which is a packet-based local access service
that combines high-capacity transport with dial, PRI, digital subscriber line
(DSL), Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and dedicated private line
technologies. The product allows ISPs to increase their service footprint while
reducing their cost in reaching underserved markets.
We have experienced operating losses since our inception, and we expect
these operating losses to continue as we expand our operations. Implementing our
business plan will require significant capital expenditures. Our financial
performance will vary from market to market, and the time when we will achieve
positive earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, if at
all, will depend on the:
o Size of our target markets;
o Timely completion of backbone routes, collocations and
interconnections;
o Cost of the necessary infrastructure;
o Timing of and barriers to market entry; and
o Commercial acceptance of our services.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
COMPARISON OF THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 WITH THE THREE
AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999
During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, we completed our
reorganization, which included our acquisition of rights of way and cash from
our investors. We also continued to focus on:
o expanding the number of cities and collocations in our network,
o building out our fiber network,
o obtaining the regulatory approval and entering into interconnection
agreements in each of our target markets to enable us to obtain
unbundled network elements and central office space from existing
local telephone companies,
16
<PAGE>
o expanding our product line, and
o developing our infrastructure including the hiring of key management
personnel.
REVENUE. For the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, we
generated revenue of approximately $17.8 million and $584,000, respectively,
comprised of revenue from telecommunications services of approximately $1.4
million and $584,000, respectively, together with revenue from construction
services of approximately $16.4 million and $0, respectively. For the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, we generated revenue of approximately
$32.4 million and $2.3 million, respectively, comprised of revenue from
telecommunications services of approximately $3.5 million and $1.7 million,
respectively, together with revenue from construction services of approximately
$28.9 million and $540,000, respectively. The increase in telecommunications
services revenue is a result of an increase in the number of circuits sold. The
increase in revenue from construction services arises mainly from our
co-development agreement with Caprock Communications ("Caprock") entered into
during the fourth quarter of 1999 and Tri-State Generation and Transmission
Association, Inc. ("Tri-State") entered into during the third quarter of 1999.
We expect that a substantial portion of our future revenue will be generated
from our sale of local access services, backbone infrastructure services and
construction services.
COST OF REVENUE. Expenses for telecommunications services primarily consist
of the cost of operating the Company's network, local exchange carrier access
charges and the cost of leased capacity. For the three months ended September
30, 2000 and 1999, we incurred telecommunications services costs of
approximately $3.8 million and $3.1 million, respectively. For the nine months
ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, we incurred telecommunications services costs
of approximately $8.6 million and $6.6 million, respectively. The increase is
related to operating expenses as we put more of our network into service.
Expenses for construction services consist primarily of costs of sale on
network construction contracts, including conduit, fiber, cable, construction
crews and rights of way. Costs attributable to the construction of the network
for the Company's own use are capitalized. For the three months ended September
30, 2000 and 1999, the Company incurred construction services costs of
approximately $15.7 million and $1.2 million, respectively. For the nine months
ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company incurred construction services
costs of approximately $28.1 million and $2.9 million, respectively. The
increase arises from the co-development of our route with Caprock and Tri-State.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Selling, general and administrative
("SG&A") expense includes the cost of salaries, benefits, occupancy costs,
commissions, sales and marketing expenses and administrative expenses. For the
three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, SG&A expenses were $8.7 million
and $3.2 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and
1999, SG&A expenses were $25.6 million and $9.5 million, respectively. The
increase is attributable to additional staff costs incurred as we continued to
develop our infrastructure, along with administrative costs related to obtaining
regulatory status and deferred compensation expense for stock options. We expect
selling, general and administrative expenses to continue to increase in the
remainder of 2000 as we continue to develop or infrastructure and increase our
staff level.
17
<PAGE>
REORGANIZATION EXPENSES. Reorganization expenses are those expenses
associated with the strategic investment transaction we completed in March 2000.
Expenses for the transaction were $0 and $1.8 million for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2000, respectively. There were no comparable
transaction costs for the similar periods in 1999.
DEPRECIATION EXPENSES. For the three months ended September 30, 2000 and
1999, depreciation expenses were $3.1 million and $2.1 million, respectively.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, depreciation expenses
were $8.4 million and $3.7 million, respectively. The increase is associated
with more of our network coming on line.
INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense for the three months ended September 30,
2000 and 1999 was approximately $10.4 million and $10.0 million, respectively.
Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 was
approximately $29.5 million and $30.3 million, respectively. Interest expense
primarily represents interest on Pathnet's 12 1/4% Senior Notes due 2008 issued
in April 1998 together with the amortization expense related to bond issuance
costs in respect to those notes and the amortization expense related to deferred
financing costs.
INTEREST INCOME. Interest income for the three months ended September 30,
2000 and 1999 was approximately $1.8 million and $3.3 million, respectively.
Interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 was
approximately $6.2 million and $10.5 million, respectively. The decrease in
interest income reflects a decrease in cash and cash equivalents and marketable
securities as those funds were used in building our network, funding operations,
and making interest payments on the senior notes.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of September 30, 2000, we had approximately $71.9 million of cash, cash
equivalents and marketable securities to fund future operations. In addition, we
had $12.4 million in restricted cash for use in building our network, as well as
$21.0 million in escrow for the bond interest payment due in October 2000. We
received an additional $25.0 million equity investment from Colonial Pipeline
Company during the third quarter of 2000.
In addition, we expect to finance the cost of some of our equipment through
vendor financing arrangements. We negotiated credit facilities with Nortel
Networks and Cisco Systems Capital Corporation, which will, subject to certain
conditions, provide us with financing for the construction of our network.
We estimate that our current available resources, together with those
received in our reorganization, will be sufficient to fund the implementation of
our long term business plan, as currently contemplated, including the capital
commitments described above, operating losses in new markets and working capital
needs into the first quarter of 2001. After such time, we expect we will require
additional financing, which may include commercial bank borrowings, additional
vendor financing or the sale or issuance of equity or debt securities.
Our expectations of our future capital requirements and cash flows from
operations are based on current estimates. If our plans or assumptions change or
prove to be inaccurate, we may require additional sources of capital or
additional capital sooner than anticipated.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The matters discussed in this quarterly report may include forward-looking
statements, including statements which can be identified by the use of
forward-looking terminology such as "believes," "anticipates," "expects," "may,"
"will," or "should" or the negative of such terminology or other variations on
such terminology or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategies that
involve risks and uncertainties. Although we believe that the expectations
reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure
you that such expectations will prove to be correct. Important factors that
could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations include,
without limitation, those described in conjunction with the forward-looking
statements in this quarterly report, as well as the amount of capital needed to
deploy our network; our substantial leverage and need to service our
indebtedness; the restrictions imposed by our current and possible future
financing arrangements; our ability to successfully manage the cost-effective
and timely completion of our network and our ability to attract and retain
customers for our products and services; our ability to implement our newly
expanded business plan; our ability to retain and attract relationships with the
incumbent owners of the telecommunications assets with which we expect to build
our network; our ability to obtain and maintain rights of way for the deployment
of our network; our ability to retain and attract key management and other
personnel as well as our ability to manage the rapid expansion of our business
and operations; our ability to compete in the highly competitive
telecommunications industry in terms of price, service, reliability and
technology; our dependence on the reliability of our network equipment, our
reliance on key suppliers of network equipment and the risk that our technology
will become obsolete or otherwise not economically viable; and our ability to
conduct our business in a regulated environment. We do not intend to update
these forward-looking statements. These and other risks and uncertainties
affecting us are contained from time to time in our filings with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to minimal market risks. We manage sensitivity of our
results of operations to market risks by maintaining a conservative investment
portfolio, (which primarily consists of debt securities, that typically mature
within one year), and entering into long-term debt obligations with appropriate
pricing and terms. We do not hold or issue derivative, derivative commodity or
other financial instruments for trading purposes. Financial instruments held for
other than trading purposes do not impose a material market risk on us.
We are exposed to interest rate risk. We periodically need additional debt
financing due to our large operating losses, and capital expenditures associated
with establishing and expanding our network coverage increase our financing
needs. The interest rate that we will be able to obtain on debt financing will
depend on market conditions at that time, and may differ from the rates we have
obtained on our current debt.
Although all of our long-term debt bears fixed interest rates, the fair
market value of our fixed rate long-term debt is sensitive to changes in
interest rates. We have no cash flow or earnings exposure due to market interest
rate changes for our fixed long-term debt obligations. As of September 30, 2000,
the fair value of our debt was approximately $143.5 million.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On April 19, 2000, the Company was sued by several plaintiffs purporting to
represent a class of landowners damaged by the Company in connection with the
development of the Company's fiber optic network. Specifically, the complaint
alleges the Company installed or will install fiber optic facilities on the
property of the landowners in the class without obtaining the necessary legal
consents from the landowners. On July 18, 2000, plaintiffs significantly
narrowed the purported class to include only landowners on a particular segment
of the Company's network.
On May 17, 2000, MagTen Partners, L.P. ("Magten"), one of our bondholders,
filed suit against the Company and the investors involved in the Company's
reorganization transaction (the "Reorganization"). The Reorganization, completed
on March 30, 2000, was among the Company, Colonial Pipeline Company, The
Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Corporation and CSX Corporation. On July 14,
2000, the Company served the plaintiffs with its response. Magten filed a
response to Pathnet's motion to dismiss on September 14, 2000 and the Company
filed a reply to Magten's response on October 13, 2000. Magten's claims stem
from their contention that the Company was not permitted to consummate the
Reorganization without unanimous consent of the holders of the Senior Notes, and
that the Company's failure to obtain Magten's consent triggered a provision in
the Indenture governing the Senior Notes (the "Indenture"), requiring the
Company to repurchase the Senior Notes at 101% of their face value. The Company
does not agree with MagTen's interpretation of the Indenture and intends to
defend the claim vigorously.
ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTIONS.
As of September 30, 2000, pursuant to the exercise of stock options, we
issued 556,426 shares of common stock to certain former employees at exercise
prices ranging from $1.13 to $5.20 per share. All of these stock options were
granted under Pathnet's 1997 Stock Incentive Plan.
There were no underwriters involved in the sale of any of these securities.
