                   PRO FORMA COMBINING FINANCIAL  STATEMENTS


         The following unaudited Pro Forma Combining Balance Sheet as of
September 30, 1994 and unaudited Pro Forma Combining Income Statements for the
nine months ended September 30, 1994 and 1993, and for the years ended December
31, 1993, 1992 and 1991, illustrate the effect of the proposed issuance of LDDS
Common Stock pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of August 1,
1994 (the "Merger Agreement") by and among LDDS, IDB Communications Group, Inc.
("IDB") and 123 Corp. ("Acquisition Subsidiary"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of
LDDS, as if the proposed issuance had occurred at the beginning of the earliest
period presented.

         Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Acquisition Subsidiary would merge
with and into IDB in a transaction which would result in the survival of IDB as
a wholly-owned subsidiary of LDDS (the "Merger"). As a result of the Merger,
each holder of IDB Common Stock will be entitled to receive a certain fraction
of a share of  LDDS Common Stock based on an average closing trade price of
LDDS Common Stock. These pro forma financial statements have been prepared
assuming the LDDS Share Value to be equal to or greater than $22.00 resulting
in an exchange ratio of 0.450867 (the "Exchange Ratio"). No assurance can be
given as to the actual Exchange Ratio that will be utilized in the Merger. The
Merger will be accounted for as a pooling of interests.

         The following unaudited Pro Forma Combining Balance Sheet as of
September 30, 1994 and the unaudited Pro Forma Combining Income Statements for
the nine months ended September 30, 1994 and for the year ended December 31,
1993 also illustrate the effect of LDDS's proposed acquisition of Williams
Telecommunications Group, Inc. ("WilTel") for $2.5 billion in cash (the "WilTel
Acquisition") and the proposed financing thereof. Pursuant to the terms of the
acquisition agreement, LDDS will acquire WilTel for cash payments of $2.5
billion, subject to adjustments. The WilTel Acquisition will be accounted for
as a purchase. Completion of the Merger is not a condition to the consummation
of the WilTel Acquisition.

         These Pro Forma Combining Financial Statements should be read in
conjunction with the historical financial statements of LDDS and IDB and the
network services operations of WilTel, the LDDS Adjusted Historical Financial
Statements and the IDB Adjusted Historical Financial Statements which are set
forth elsewhere herein.

         The Pro Forma Combining Financial Statements are presented for
comparative purposes only and are not intended to be indicative of actual
results had the transactions occurred as of the dates indicated above nor do
they purport to indicate results which may be attained in the future.

               NOTES TO PRO FORMA COMBINING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



1.       The adjustments to the unaudited Pro Forma Combining Financial
         Statements do not give effect to direct transaction costs or any
         resulting restructuring costs associated with the consummation of the
         Merger. All such costs are estimated to be $50.0 million, which amount
         includes approximately $10.0 million of direct transaction costs. The
         pro forma financial data do not give effect to any potential cost
         savings and synergy's that could result from the Merger or the WilTel
         Acquisition. The pro forma data are not necessarily indicative of the
         operating results or financial position that would have occurred had
         the Merger or the WilTel Acquisition been consummated at the dates
         indicated, nor necessarily indicative of future operating results or
         financial position.

2.       These adjustments reflect the issuance of approximately 33.4 million
         shares of LDDS Common Stock in accordance with the assumed Exchange
         Ratio of 0.450867 shares of LDDS Common Stock for each share of IDB
         Common Stock outstanding. The actual number of shares of LDDS Common
         Stock to be issued, pursuant to the Merger, will be based on the
         number of shares of IDB Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to
         the consummation of the Merger and the actual Exchange Ratio, based on
         the LDDS Share Value.

3.       These adjustments represent the elimination of certain assets and
         liabilities of WilTel that LDDS will not acquire as part of the WilTel
         Acquisition as set forth in the acquisition agreement.  The assets and
         liabilities excluded include cash, tax asset and liability accounts
         with affiliates, accounts payable to affiliates and amounts due from
         affiliates, which consist of unsecured payables and receivables of
         WilTel with Williams.

4.       This adjustment reflects an increase to WilTel's working capital to
         comply with the required working capital amounts as set forth in the
         WilTel Acquisition agreement. The acquisition agreement provides that
         upon the date of its acquisition by LDDS, WilTel will have a current
         ratio equal to the ratio existing at December 31, 1993.  At September
         30, 1994, this requirement would have necessitated a $27.7 million
         increase to WilTel's current assets.

5.       This adjustment reflects the excess of cost over net tangible assets
         acquired in the WilTel Acquisition. For purposes of allocating the
         acquisition costs among the various assets acquired, LDDS has
         tentatively considered the carrying value of the acquired assets to
         approximate their fair value, with all of the excess of such
         acquisition costs being attributed to goodwill. It is LDDS's
         intention, subsequent to the acquisition, to more fully evaluate the
         acquired assets and, as a result, the allocation of the acquisition
         costs among the tangible and intangible assets acquired may change.





                                      F-9
<PAGE>   13
6.       This adjustment reflects the capitalization of fees incurred to obtain
         the new credit facilities (see Note 8).

7.       This adjustment represents the replacement of the LDDS $123.0 million
         Senior Notes with a portion of the new credit facilities (see Note 8).

8.       This adjustment represents the incremental proceeds to be received
         under the new credit facilities for the purpose of financing the
         WilTel Acquisition and its related costs.

9.       These adjustments represent the elimination of WilTel's shareholders'
         investment accounts.

10.      These columns represent the historical results of operations.

11.      These adjustments eliminate the revenues and corresponding line costs
         attributable to the intercompany traffic between LDDS and IDB.

12.      These adjustments eliminate the revenues and corresponding line costs
         attributable to the intercompany traffic between  LDDS/IDB pro forma
         combined operations and WilTel.

13.      This adjustment reflects amortization over 40 years of the excess of
         cost over net tangible assets acquired in the WilTel Acquisition (see
         Note 5).

14.      This adjustment reflects the amortization over 6 years of capitalized
         fees incurred to obtain the new credit facilities (see Note 6).

15.      These adjustments represent interest savings to LDDS, as it will not
         acquire any of WilTel's debt in the WilTel Acquisition (see Note 3).

16.      This adjustment represents the recognition of interest expense on the
         additional borrowings of LDDS to fund the WilTel Acquisition and
         related costs (see Note 8). The interest expense was calculated at an
         assumed rate of interest of 6.7%. A change of 1/8% in the assumed rate
         would affect interest expense by $2.6 million for the nine  months
         ended September  30, 1994 and by $3.5 million for the year ended
         December 31, 1993.

17.      This adjustment reflects the interest savings resulting from the
         replacement of LDDS' $123.0 million Senior Notes with the new credit
         facilities (see Note 8).

18.      These adjustments represent the tax effect of adjustments due to
         inclusion of the acquired operations. The tax provisions were
         calculated at a combined federal and state rate of 39% applied to
         items impacting taxable income. However, for the nine months ended
         September 30, 1994, the only item considered to have an impact upon
         LDDS/IDB Pro Forma Combined taxable income was the $76.0 million
         shareholder litigation settlement. Because of tax planning strategies,
         LDDS management believes that presently the shareholder litigation
         settlement is the only item





                                      F-10
<PAGE>   14
         contributing to IDB's results of operations for the nine months ended
         September 30, 1994 for which the combined company of LDDS and IDB is
         more likely than not to realize a tax benefit. After consummation of
         the Merger, LDDS management will review tax planning strategies in
         order to identify any additional net operating loss utilization
         available to the combined company of LDDS and IDB.

19.      Pro forma per share data are calculated using the pro forma net income
         (loss) applicable to the common shareholders divided by the pro forma
         weighted average common and common equivalent shares outstanding. The
         pro forma weighted average common and common equivalent shares
         outstanding includes the LDDS weighted average common and common
         equivalent shares outstanding plus the Exchange Ratio multiplied by
         the weighted common and common equivalent shares outstanding of IDB.
         For periods of pro forma losses, common equivalent shares are not
         considered in the calculation of pro forma per share data, as their
         inclusion would be anti dilutive.

20.      The LDDS Adjusted Historical Income Statement for the year ended
         December 31, 1993 includes (1) the effect of LDDS' acquisition in
         March 1993 of Dial-Net for cash payments of approximately $31.2
         million and the issuance of 2.7 million shares of LDDS Common Stock
         valued at approximately $42.9 million and (2) the effect of LDDS's
         acquisition in September 1993 of MCC and Resurgens for cash payments
         of approximately $150.0 million and the issuance of common and
         preferred stock valued at approximately $1.1 billion. The LDDS
         Adjusted Historical Income Statement assumes that the Prior Mergers
         and the Dial-Net acquisition occurred at the beginning of the earliest
         period presented. See "LDDS Adjusted Historical Financial Statements"
         which are set forth elsewhere herein.

         The IDB Adjusted Historical  Income Statement for the year ended
         December 31, 1993 includes the effect of IDB's acquisition in
         September 1993 of TRT Communications, Inc. ("TRT") for cash payments
         of $1.0 million and the issuance of 10.1 million shares of IDB Common
         Stock valued at approximately $79.0 million. The IDB Adjusted
         Historical Income Statement assumes that the TRT acquisition occurred
         at the beginning of the earliest period presented. See "IDB Adjusted
         Historical Income Statement" which is set forth elsewhere herein.

         After consummation of the Merger, the financial statements of LDDS as
         of and for the year ended December 31, 1993, will be restated to
         reflect the combination of the financial position and results of
         operations of LDDS and IDB. Such financial statements will report
         revenues of $1.5 billion, net income available to common shareholders
         of $112.6 million, primary earnings per share of $0.83 and fully
         diluted earnings per share of $0.81.

                   LDDS ADJUSTED HISTORICAL INCOME STATEMENT


         The following unaudited LDDS Adjusted Historical Income Statement for
the year ended December 31, 1993, illustrates the effect of LDDS's acquisition
in March 1993 of Dial-Net, Inc. ("Dial-Net") for cash payments of $31.2 million
and the issuance of 2.75 million shares of LDDS Common Stock valued at
approximately $42.9 million and the September 15, 1993, three-way merger
whereby (i) Metromedia Communications Corporation ("MCC") merged with and into
Resurgens Communications Group, Inc. ("Resurgens") and (ii) LDDS
Communications, Inc., a Tennessee corporation ("LDDS-TN"), merged with and
into Resurgens (the "Prior Mergers") for an aggregate purchase price of $1.2
billion. The LDDS Adjusted Historical Income Statement assumes that the Prior
Mergers and the Dial-Net acquisition, all accounted for as purchase
transactions, occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented.

         At the time of the Prior Mergers, the name of Resurgens, the legal
survivor, was changed to LDDS Communications, Inc. and the separate corporate
existence of LDDS-TN and MCC terminated. For accounting purposes, LDDS-TN is
the survivor because the former shareholders of LDDS-TN acquired the majority
ownership of LDDS.

         Upon effectiveness of the Prior Mergers, each share of the outstanding
Class A Common Stock of LDDS-TN was converted into the right to receive 0.9595
shares of LDDS Common Stock. As a result of the consummation of the Prior
Mergers, Metromedia Company, the sole stockholder of MCC, received 2,758,620
shares of the LDDS Common Stock, 10,896,785 shares of LDDS Series 1 $2.25
Cumulative Senior Perpetual Convertible Preferred Stock having a liquidation
value of $50 per share and a conversion price of $24.9046875 per share (the
"Series 1 Preferred Stock"), warrants to purchase 5,000,400 shares of the LDDS
Common Stock, and $150.0 million in cash. The common stock of Resurgens was
unchanged in the Prior Mergers.

         This LDDS Adjusted Historical Income Statement should be read in
conjunction with the historical financial statements of LDDS, MCC and
Resurgens.

         The LDDS Adjusted Historical Income Statement is presented for
comparative purposes only and is not intended to be indicative of actual
results had the transactions occurred as of the date indicated above nor does
it purport to indicate results which may be attained in the future.

               NOTES TO LDDS ADJUSTED HISTORICAL INCOME STATEMENT


1.       These columns represent the historical results of operations of
         Dial-Net, MCC and Resurgens, respectively for the period from January
         1, 1993 to their respective date of acquisition by LDDS.

2.       These adjustments eliminate the revenues and corresponding line costs
         attributable to the intercompany traffic between MCC and Resurgens.

3.       This adjustment represents the amortization expense of the excess of
         cost over net tangible assets acquired in the Prior Mergers. The
         excess purchase price over net tangible assets acquired has been
         recorded based upon an estimate of fair values of assets acquired and
         liabilities assumed. A final allocation of the purchase price will be
         determined when appraisals and other studies relating to fixed assets
         and the utilization of MCC's and Resurgens' net operating loss
         carryforwards are completed. The excess cost over net tangible assets
         acquired is composed primarily of goodwill which is amortized over 40
         years using the straight-line method.

4.       This adjustment represents the amortization of the excess cost over
         net tangible assets acquired in the Dial-Net acquisition.  The excess
         cost over net tangible assets acquired is comprised primarily of
         goodwill and customer base which are amortized over 40 years and 10
         years, respectively, using the straight-line method.

5.       This adjustment represents the recognition of interest expense on the
         additional borrowings of LDDS to fund the transaction costs of the
         Prior Mergers. The interest expense was calculated based on LDDS's
         incremental borrowing rate of 6.25% at December 31, 1993. A change of
         1/8%  in the assumed rate would affect interest expense by $145,000
         for the year ended December 31, 1993.

6.       This adjustment represents the recognition of interest expense on
         additional borrowings of LDDS to fund the acquisition of Dial-Net. The
         interest expense was calculated at LDDS's incremental borrowing rate
         at December 31, 1993 of 6.25% per annum. A change of 1/8% in the
         assumed rate would affect interest expense by $8,000 for the year
         ended December 31, 1993.

7.       These adjustments represent the tax effect of adjustments due to
         inclusion of the acquired operations. The tax provisions were provided
         at a combined federal and state rate of 39% applied to items impacting
         taxable income.  For purposes of the pro forma provision for income
         taxes for the year ended December 31, 1993, loss carryovers utilized
         by MCC and Resurgens  were eliminated because utilization of such
         carryovers after the Prior Mergers would have resulted in adjustments
         to goodwill.

8.       This adjustment represents the recognition of dividends on the Series
         1 Preferred Stock issued to the MCC shareholder. The Series 1
         Preferred Stock provides for dividends at the rate of  $24.5 million
         per year.

9.       Pro forma per share data are based on the number of LDDS common and
         common equivalent shares that would have been outstanding had the
         acquisitions of  Dial-Net, MCC and Resurgens occurred on January 1,
         1993.

                    IDB ADJUSTED HISTORICAL INCOME STATEMENT


         The following unaudited IDB Adjusted Historical Income Statement for
the year ended December 31, 1993, illustrates the effect of IDB's acquisition
in September 1993 of TRT for a cash payment of $1.0 million and the issuance of
10.1 million shares of IDB Common Stock valued at approximately $79.0 million.
The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. The IDB Adjusted Historical
Income Statement assumes that the TRT acquisition occurred at January 1, 1993.

         The IDB Adjusted Historical Income Statement should be read in
conjunction with the historical financial statements of IDB and TRT.

         The IDB Adjusted Historical Income Statement is presented for
comparative purposes only and is not intended to be indicative of actual
results had the transactions occurred as of the dates indicated above nor does
it purport to indicate results which may be attained in the future.

               NOTES TO IDB ADJUSTED HISTORICAL INCOME STATEMENT


1.       IDB reclassified payments to foreign telephone companies to complete
         calls made from the United States by IDB's customers. These payments,
         which previously were classified as direct reductions of transmission
         services revenue, are now classified as cost of sales. Operating
         income (loss), net income (loss) available to common shareholders and
         the balance sheet are not affected. The amount of revenue reported by
         IDB for the years ended prior to December 31, 1993 do not reflect this
         reclassification because the amounts subject to reclassification were
         not material.

2.       This column represents the results of operations of TRT for the period
         from January 1, 1993 to the date of acquisition by IDB. The historical
         revenues and cost of sales of TRT have been adjusted to reclassify the
         payments to foreign telephone companies from a direct reduction of
         revenue to cost of sales.

3.       Restructuring cost savings will accrue from the combination, as a
         direct result of reductions in operating labor force and the
         elimination of duplicative facilities, including reductions in
         duplicative management, administrative locations and selling and
         administrative functions. The pro forma adjustments are based on
         management estimates of the actual effects of restructuring decisions
         and are presented as if the restructuring were completed as of January
         1, 1993.
