filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") in
accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (collectively, the
"Act"), a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-88927) under the Act
(the "Registration Statement"), including a prospectus and a prospectus
supplement, relating to the Shares. The term "Registration Statement" as used in

execution of this Agreement. If a post-effective amendment or supplement to the
Registration Statement is filed in connection with the offering of the Shares,

Registration Statement as amended by said post-effective amendment or
supplement. The term "Prospectus" as used in this Agreement means the prospectus
(including the prospectus supplement relating to the Shares) in the form
included in the Registration Statement, or, if the prospectus (including the
prospectus supplement relating to the Shares) included in the Registration
Statement omits information in reliance on Rule 430A under the Act and such
information is included in a prospectus (or a prospectus supplement) filed with
the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Act, the term "Prospectus" as
used in this Agreement means the prospectus (including the prospectus supplement
relating to the Shares) in the form included in the Registration Statement as

the Registration Statement or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and
include the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of
Form S-3 under the Act, as of the date of the Registration Statement or the
Prospectus and any reference to any amendment or supplement to the Registration
Statement or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include any

incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any
amendment or supplement thereto.

Act, as applicable.
2. Agreements to Sell and Purchase. The Company hereby agrees, subject
to all the terms and conditions set forth herein, to issue and sell to each
Underwriter and, upon the basis of the representations, warranties and
agreements of the Company herein contained and subject to all the terms and
conditions set forth herein, each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees
to purchase from the Company, at a purchase price of $30.00 per share (the
"purchase price per share"), the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the
name of such Underwriter in Schedule I hereto (or such number of Firm Shares
increased as set forth in Section 10 hereof).
The Company also agrees, subject to all the terms and conditions set
forth herein, to sell to the Underwriters, and, upon the basis of the
representations, warranties and agreements of the Company herein contained and
subject to all the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Underwriters shall
have the right to purchase from the Company, at the purchase price per share,
pursuant to an option (the "over-allotment option") which may be exercised at
any time and from time to time prior to 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on the
30th day after the date of the Prospectus (or, if such 30th day shall be a
Saturday or Sunday or a holiday, on the next business day thereafter when the
Nasdaq National Market is open for trading), up to an aggregate of 1,312,500
Additional Shares. Additional Shares may be purchased only for the purpose of
covering over-allotments made in connection with the offering of the Firm
Shares. Upon any exercise of the over-allotment option, each Underwriter,
severally and not jointly, agrees to purchase from the Company the number of
Additional Shares (subject to such adjustments as you may determine in order to
avoid fractional shares) that bears the same proportion to the number of
Additional Shares to be purchased by the Underwriters as the number of Firm
Shares set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter in Schedule I hereto (or
such number of Firm Shares increased as provided for in Section 10 hereof) bears
to the aggregate number of Firm Shares.
3. Terms of Public Offering. The Company has been advised by you that
the Underwriters propose to make a public offering of their respective portions
of the Firm Shares as soon after this Agreement has become effective as in your
judgment is advisable and initially to offer the Firm Shares upon the terms set

on behalf of the Underwriters, and the Company.
Delivery to the Underwriters of and payment for any Additional Shares to
be purchased by the Underwriters shall be made at the aforementioned office of
Latham & Watkins at such time on such date (the "Option Closing Date"), which
may be the same as the Closing Date but shall in no event be earlier than the
Closing Date nor earlier than two nor later than ten business days after the

5. Agreements of the Company. The Company agrees with the several
Underwriters as follows:
(a) If, at the time this Agreement is executed and delivered,
it is necessary for a post-effective amendment thereto to be declared effective
before the offering of the Shares may commence, the Company will endeavor to
cause the Registration Statement or such post-effective amendment to become
effective as soon as possible and will advise you promptly and, if requested by
you, will confirm such advice in writing, when the Registration Statement or
such post-effective amendment has become effective.
(b) The Company will advise you promptly and, if requested by
you, will confirm such advice in writing: (i) of any request by the Commission
for amendment of or a supplement to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus
or for additional information; (ii) of the issuance by the Commission of any
stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of the
suspension of qualification of the Shares for offering or sale in any
jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose; and (iii)
within the period of time referred to in paragraph (e) below, of the happening
of any event which makes any statement of a material fact made in the
Registration Statement or the Prospectus untrue or which requires the making of
any additions to or changes in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus in
order to state a material fact required by the Act or the regulations thereunder
to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not
misleading, or of the necessity to amend or supplement the Prospectus to comply
with the Act or any other law. If at any time the Commission shall issue any
stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the
Company will make every reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal of such order
at the earliest possible time.
(c) The Company will furnish to you upon request, without
charge, eight signed copies of the Registration Statement as originally filed
with the Commission and of each amendment and supplement thereto, including
financial statements and all exhibits thereto, and will also furnish to you upon
request, without charge, such number of conformed copies of the Registration
Statement as originally filed and of each amendment thereto, but without
exhibits, as you may request.
(d) The Company will not (i) file any amendment to the
Registration Statement or make any amendment to the Prospectus or any amendment
to any of the documents incorporated by reference in the Prospectus or amend or
supplement the prospectus supplement utilized in connection with this offering
of which you shall not previously have been advised or to which you shall object
after being so advised or (ii) so long as, in the written opinion of counsel for
the Underwriters, a prospectus is required to be delivered in connection with
sales by any Underwriter or dealer, file any information, documents or reports
pursuant to the Exchange Act, without delivering a copy of such information,
documents or reports to you, as Representatives of the Underwriters, prior to or
concurrently with such filing.
(e) As soon after the execution and delivery of this Agreement
as possible and thereafter from time to time for such period as in the written
opinion of counsel for the Underwriters a prospectus is required by the Act to
be delivered in connection with sales by any Underwriter or dealer, the Company
will expeditiously deliver to each Underwriter and each dealer, without charge,
as many copies of the Prospectus as you may request. The Company consents to the
use of the Prospectus in accordance with the provisions of the Act and with the
securities or Blue Sky laws of the jurisdictions in which the Shares are offered
by the several Underwriters and by all dealers to whom Shares may be sold, both
in connection with the offering and sale of the Shares and for such period of
time thereafter as the Prospectus is required by the Act to be delivered in
connection with sales by any Underwriter or dealer. If during such period of
time any event shall occur that in the judgment of the Company or in the opinion
of counsel for the Underwriters is required to be set forth in the Prospectus or
should be set forth therein in order to make the statements therein, in the
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or if it
is necessary to supplement or amend the Prospectus to comply with the Act or any
other law, the Company will forthwith prepare and, subject to the provisions of
paragraph (d) above, file with the Commission an appropriate supplement or
amendment thereto and will expeditiously furnish to the Underwriters and dealers
a reasonable number of copies thereof.
(f) The Company will cooperate with you and with counsel for
the Underwriters in connection with the registration or qualification of the
Shares for offering and sale by the several Underwriters and by dealers under
the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as you may designate and
will file such consents to service of process or other documents necessary or
appropriate in order to effect such registration or qualification; provided that
in no event shall the Company be obligated to qualify to do business in any
jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or to take any action which would
subject it to service of process in suits, other than those arising out of the
offering or sale of the Shares, in any jurisdiction where it is not now so
subject.
(g) The Company will make generally available to its security
holders a consolidated earnings statement, which need not be audited, covering a
twelve-month period commencing after the effective date of the Registration
Statement and ending not later than 15 months thereafter, as soon as practicable
after the end of such period, which consolidated earnings statement shall
satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act.
(h) During the period of five years after the date of this
Agreement, the Company will (i) make generally available a copy of each report
of the Company mailed to stockholders or filed with the Commission or the Nasdaq
National Market and will promptly notify you of such mailing or filing and (ii)
furnish to you from time to time such other information concerning the Company
and its Subsidiaries (as defined herein) as you may request.
(i) If this Agreement shall terminate or shall be terminated
after execution pursuant to any provisions hereof (otherwise than pursuant to
the second paragraph of Section 10 hereof or by notice given by you terminating
this Agreement pursuant to Section 10 or Section 11 hereof) or if this Agreement
shall be terminated by the Underwriters because of any failure or refusal on the
part of the Company to comply with the terms or fulfill any of the conditions of
this Agreement, the Company agrees to negotiate in good faith regarding the
reimbursement to the Underwriters for out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and
expenses of counsel for the Underwriters) incurred by the Underwriters in
connection herewith.
(j) The Company will apply the net proceeds from the sale of
the Shares substantially in accordance with the description set forth in the
Prospectus.

timely file the Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Act and will advise
you of the time and manner of such filing.
(l) The Company will use its best efforts to have the Shares
listed, subject to notice of issuance, on the Nasdaq National Market as of the
Closing Date.
(m) For a period of 90 days after the date hereof (the
"Lock-up Period"), the Company will not, without the prior written consent of
Salomon Smith Barney Inc., offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of
any shares of common stock of the Company (or any securities convertible into,
exercisable or exchangeable for common stock of the Company) or grant any
options or warrants to purchase common stock of the Company, or announce any
intention to do any of the foregoing, except for agreements, transactions or
activities in connection with (i) sales to the Underwriters pursuant to this
Agreement; (ii) the issuance of shares to Adelphia, members of the immediate
family of John Rigas or entities controlled directly or indirectly by one or
more of them; (iii) the issuance of options or grants of shares under the
Company's employee benefit, stock option or stock plans now or hereafter in

defined in Rule 144(a)(3) of the Act) for any remaining portion of the Lock-up
Period; and (viii) any issuance of shares in connection with a bona fide
acquisition of telecommunications assets or an entity in the telecommunications
business.

letters, in form and substance satisfactory to you, signed by the Parent and
each of the Company's stockholders specified on Schedule II hereto.
(o) Except as stated in this Agreement and the Prospectus, the
Company has not taken, nor will it take, directly or indirectly, any action
designed to or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result in
stabilization or manipulation of the price of the Common Stock to facilitate the

(p) The Company will use its best efforts to have the Common
Stock listed, subject to notice of issuance, on the Nasdaq National Market
concurrently with the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.

conducted by each of them in the manner described in the Prospectus, except as
described in the Prospectus or where failure to hold such Authorizations would
not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect and (iv)
no reason to believe that any governmental body or agency is considering
limiting, suspending or revoking any such Authorization. Except where the
failure to be in full force and effect would not have a Material Adverse Effect,
all such Authorizations are valid and in full force and effect and each of the
Company, the Subsidiaries and the Joint Ventures is in compliance with the terms

any of their respective officers, directors, partners, employees, agents or
affiliates or any other person acting on behalf of the Company, any Subsidiary

Effect.

contracts, agreements or understandings between the Company, any of its

representations and hereby consents to such reliance.
7. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify
and hold harmless each of you, and each of your directors, officers, employees
and agents and each of the other Underwriter and each person, if any, who
controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange
Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, or liabilities, joint
or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the
Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common
law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, expenses or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the
Registration Statement or the Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement
thereto, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such
indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss,
claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not
be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or
liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon
and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on
behalf of any Underwriter through a Representative specifically for inclusion
therein. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the
Company may otherwise have.
(b) Each Underwriter severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and
hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs
the Registration Statement, and each person who controls the Company within the
meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the
foregoing indemnity from the Company to each Underwriter, but only with
reference to written information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the
Company, through the Representative, by or on behalf of such Underwriter
specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing
indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which
any Underwriter may otherwise have.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7
of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a
claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this
Section 7, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof;
but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from
liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not
otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the
indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any
event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified
party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b)
above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the
indemnifying party's choice at the indemnifying party's expense to represent the
indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which
case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and
expenses of any separate counsel retained by the indemnified party or parties
except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be
satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party's
election to appoint counsel to represent the indemnified party in an action, the
indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including
local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs
and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the
indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel
with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or
targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the
indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded
that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified
parties which are different from or additional to those available to the
indemnifying party, (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel
satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within
a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action or (iv) the
indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate
counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. An indemnifying party will
not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or
compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending
or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which
indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the
indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action)
unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release
of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action,
suit or proceeding.
(d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of
this Section 7 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified
party for any reason, the Company and the Underwriters severally agree to
contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including
legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or
defending same) (collectively "Losses") to which the Company and one or more of
the Underwriters may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and by the
Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Shares; provided, however,
that in no case shall any Underwriter (except as may be provided in any
agreement among underwriters relating to the offering of the Shares) be
responsible for any amount in excess of the underwriting discount or commission
applicable to the Shares purchased by such Underwriter hereunder. If the
allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any
reason, the Company and the Underwriters severally shall contribute in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also
the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the
other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such
Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received
by the Company shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the
offering (before deducting expenses) received by it, and benefits received by
the Underwriters shall be deemed to be equal to the total underwriting discounts
and commissions, in each case as set forth on the cover page of the Prospectus.
Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether
any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or
alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the
Company on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other, the intent of the
parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to
correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company and the
Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were
determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does
not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 7, each person who
controls an Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act
and each director, officer, employee and agent of an Underwriter shall have the
same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each person who controls
the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each
officer of the Company who shall have signed the Registration Statement and each
director of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the
Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this
paragraph (d).
8. Conditions of Underwriters' Obligations. The several obligations of
the Underwriters to purchase the Firm Shares hereunder are subject to the
following conditions:
(a) All of the representations and warranties of the Company
contained in this Agreement shall be true and correct on the Closing Date with
the same force and effect as if made on and as of the Closing Date.
(b) If, at the time this Agreement is executed and delivered,
it is necessary for the Registration Statement or a post-effective amendment
thereto (including pursuant to Rule 462(b)) to be declared effective before the
offering of the Shares may commence, the Registration Statement or such
post-effective amendment shall have become effective not later than 5:30 P.M.,
New York City time, on the date hereof, or at such later date and time as shall
be consented to in writing by you, and all filings, if any, required by Rules
424 and 430A under the Act shall have been timely made; no stop order suspending
the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall have been issued and no
proceeding for that purpose shall have been instituted or, to the knowledge of
the Company or any Underwriter, threatened by the Commission, and any request of
the Commission for additional information (to be included in the Registration

10. Effective Date of Agreement. This Agreement shall

hereto; or (ii) if, at the time this Agreement is executed and delivered, it is
necessary for the Registration Statement or a post-effective amendment thereto
to be declared effective before the offering of the Shares may commence, when
notification of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or such
post-effective amendment has been released by the Commission. Until such time as
this Agreement shall have become effective, it may be terminated by the Company,
by notifying you, or by you, as Representatives of the several Underwriters, by
notifying the Company.
Any notice under this Section 10 may be given by telegram, telecopy
or telephone but shall be subsequently confirmed by letter.
If any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse to
purchase Shares which it or they are obligated to purchase hereunder on the
Closing Date, and the aggregate number of Shares which such defaulting
Underwriter or Underwriters are obligated but fail or refuse to purchase is not
more than one-tenth of the aggregate number of Shares which the Underwriters are
obligated to purchase on the Closing Date, each non-defaulting Underwriter shall
be obligated, severally, in the proportion which the number of Firm Shares set
forth opposite its name in Schedule I hereto bears to the aggregate number of
Firm Shares set forth opposite the names of all non-defaulting Underwriters or
in such other proportion as you may specify in accordance with the Master
Agreement Among Underwriters of Salomon Smith Barney Inc., to purchase the
Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters are obligated, but fail
or refuse, to purchase. If any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or
refuse to purchase Shares which it or they are obligated to purchase on the
Closing Date and the aggregate number of Shares with respect to which such
default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate number of Shares which
the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on the Closing Date and arrangements
satisfactory to you and the Company for the purchase of such Shares by one or
more non-defaulting Underwriters or other party or parties approved by you and
the Company are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will
terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the
Company. In any such case which does not result in termination of this
Agreement, either you or the Company shall have the right to postpone the
Closing Date or Option Closing Date, as the case may be, but in no event for
longer than seven days, in order that the required changes, if any, in the
Registration Statement and the Prospectus or any other documents or arrangements
may be effected. Any action taken under this paragraph shall not relieve any
defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any such default of any such
Underwriter under this Agreement. The term "Underwriter" as used in this
Agreement includes, for all purposes of this Agreement, any party not listed in
Schedule I hereto who, with your approval and the approval of the Company,
purchases Shares which a defaulting Underwriter is obligated, but fails or
refuses, to purchase.
Any notice under this Section 10 may be given by telegram,
telecopy or telephone but shall be subsequently confirmed by letter.
11. Termination of Agreement. This Agreement shall be subject to
termination in your absolute discretion, without liability on the part of any
Underwriter to the Company, by notice to the Company, if prior to the Closing
Date or any Option Closing Date (if different from the Closing Date and then
only as to the Additional Shares), as the case may be, (i) trading in securities
of the Company on the Nasdaq National Market or in securities generally on the
New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq National
Market shall have been suspended or materially limited, (ii) a general
moratorium on commercial banking activities in New York or Philadelphia shall
have been declared by either federal or state authorities, or (iii) there shall
have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or other international
or domestic calamity, crisis or change in political, financial or economic
conditions, the effect of which on the financial markets of the United States is
such as to make it, in your judgment, impracticable or inadvisable to commence
or continue the offering of the Shares at the offering price to the public set
forth on the cover page of the Prospectus or to enforce contracts for the resale
of the Shares by the Underwriters. Notice of such termination may be given to
the Company by telegram, telecopy or telephone and shall be subsequently
confirmed by letter.
12. Information Furnished by the Underwriters. The statements set
forth in the last paragraph on the cover page and the statements in the first,
third, seventh, eighth, and ninth paragraphs under the caption "Underwriting" in
the Prospectus, constitute the only information furnished by or on behalf of the
Underwriters through you as such information is referred to in Sections 6(b) and
7 hereof.
13. Miscellaneous. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 5, 10
and 11 hereof, notice given pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be
in writing and shall be delivered (i) if to the Company, at the office of the
Company at Adelphia Business Solutions, Inc., One North Main Street,
Coudersport, Pennsylvania 16915, Attention: Edward E. Babcock, Jr., Vice
President, Finance; or (ii) if to you, as Representatives of the several
Underwriters, care of Salomon Smith Barney Inc., 388 Greenwich Street, New York,
New York 10013, Attention: Manager, Investment Banking Division.
This Agreement has been and is made solely for the benefit of the
several Underwriters, the Company, its directors and officers, and the other
controlling persons referred to in Section 7 hereof and their respective
successors and assigns, to the extent provided herein, and no other person shall
acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement. Neither the term
"successor" nor the term "successors and assigns" as used in this Agreement
shall include a purchaser from any Underwriter of any of the Shares in his
status as such purchaser.
14. Applicable Law; Counterparts. This Agreement shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York
applicable to contracts made and to be performed within the State of New York.
This Agreement may be signed in various counterparts which
together constitute one and the same instrument. If signed in counterparts, this
Agreement shall not become effective unless at least one counterpart hereof
shall have been executed and delivered on behalf of each party hereto.
