     B5.  In connection with the execution of th e Sprint Transaction, we

          company, an affiliate of our largest stockholder, Fortress; (b)
          various affiliates of our third largest stockholder, Abrams Capital,
          LLC; and (c) various affiliates of Greenhill, our second largest
          stockholder, collectively referred to as the "Investors". Under the
          Investment Agreement, the Investors committed to purchase, at the
          closing of the Sprint Transaction, up to $500,000 of our common stock,
          par value $0.01 per share, at a price of $25.50 per share. This
          forward contract to sell up to $500,000 of our Common Stock to the
          Investors had a negative fair value of $62,157 as of February 14, 2005
          and was reclassified from additional paid in capital and included in
          equity derivatives within stockholders' equity in our balance sheet as
          of March 31, 2005.

          In connection with the Investment Agreement, the Investors agreed to
          issue to us, at the closing of the Investment Agreement, a one-time
          option to purchase from the Investors a number of shares of common
          stock having a value equal to the difference between the total
          consideration paid by the Investors for the common stock at the
          closing of the Sprint Transactions and $250,000. This option would
          have been issued by the Investors pursuant to an Option Agreement
          among the Investors and us. Pursuant to the Option Agreement, we would
          have the right to purchase the shares at a price per share of $26.50.
          The option would immediately vest upon issuance at the closing and
          would expire six months and one day after the closing of the Sprint
          Transactions. The option to purchase the shares issued to the
          Investors had a fair value of $37,843 as of February 14, 2005. This
          amount has been reclassified to additional paid-in capital and is
          included in equity derivatives within stockholders' equity in our
          balance sheet as of March 31, 2005.

          In connection with the closing of the Sprint Transaction we sold only
          $250,000 of our common stock to the Investors and as such, the option
          to repurchase shares was not issued to us. This entry reflects the
          reclassification of the equity derivatives from the Investment
          Agreement of ($62,157) and the Option Agreement of $37,843 as these
          transactions are fully completed.

G.   Pro Forma Income (Loss) Per Share

     Shares used to calculate unaudited pro forma as adjusted basic and diluted
net income (loss) from continuing operations per share for the year ended
December 31, 2004 and three months ended March 31, 2005 were adjusted to reflect
9,803,922 shares issued to the Investors in connection with the Sprint
Transaction as if they had been outstanding since January 1, 2004 and January 1,
2005, respectively.

     Diluted shares outstanding on a pro forma as adjusted basis are the same as
basic shares outstanding since their inclusion would be anti-dilutive due to the
pro forma as adjusted net loss.

     Details of the calculations follow (in thousands):
