Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the &#8220;SERP&#8221;) for the benefit of eligible
employees of TDS and certain subsidiaries of TDS.&#160;&#160; The SERP provides

Plan caused by the limitation on annual employee compensation which can be
considered for tax-qualified pension plans under the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the &#8220;Code&#8221;) and certain other Code limitations.&#160; The SERP is
a non-qualified deferred compensation plan and is unfunded.</font></p>

SERP to clarify that a rehired employee who participated in the SERP as of the
date of his or her immediately preceding separation shall recommence
participation in the SERP as of the date of his or her rehire, provided that he
or she is appointed as an officer within three (3) months following his or her
rehire date.&#160; The amendment also includes provisions (i) addressing the
revocation of a spouse as beneficiary upon a divorce; (ii) specifying a
contractual statute of limitations for claims under the SERP; (iii) specifying
the Northern District of Illinois as the designated forum for legal actions
under the SERP; and (iv) identifying limitations in calculating any award of
