	(1) Prepare, execute, in the undersigned's name and on the undersigned's behalf, and submit
to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") a Form ID, including amendments thereto,
and any other documents necessary or appropriate to obtain codes and passwords enabling the
undersigned to make electronic filings with the SEC of reports required by Section 16(a) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"), or any rule or regulation of the SEC;

        (2) Execute for and on behalf of the undersigned, in the undersigned's capacity as an officer,
of PTGi Holding, Inc. (the "Company"), Forms 3, 4, and 5 and amendments thereto in accordance with
Section 16(a) of the  Exchange Act , and the associated rules and regulations of the SEC);

        (3) Do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the undersigned which may be
necessary or desirable to complete and execute any such Form 3, 4, or 5 and any amendments thereto
and timely file such forms with the SEC and any stock exchange or similar authority; and

        (4) Take any other action of any type whatsoever which, in the opinion of such attorney-in-
fact, may be necessary or desirable in connection with the foregoing authority, it being understood
that the documents executed by such attorney-in-fact on behalf of the undersigned pursuant to this
Limited Power of Attorney shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as such
attorney-in-fact may approve in such attorney-in-fact's discretion.

        The undersigned hereby grants to each such attorney-in-fact full power and authority to do
and perform any and every act and thing whatsoever requisite, necessary, or proper to be done in the
exercise of any of the rights and powers herein granted, as fully to all intents and purposes as the

in securities issued by the Company, unless earlier revoked by the undersigned in a signed writing
delivered to the foregoing attorneys-in-fact.  This Power of Attorney may be filed with the SEC as a
confirming statement of the authority granted herein.
